AMPHENOL CORPORATION NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE DATA) NOTE 1--PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION AND INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999, and the related condensed consolidated statements of income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999 and of changes in shareholders' deficit and of cash flow for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999 include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. The interim financial statements included herein are unaudited. In the opinion of management all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of such interim financial statements have been included. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes included in the Company's 1999 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The interconnect products and assemblies segment produces connectors and connector assemblies primarily for the communications, aerospace, industrial and automotive markets. The cable products segment produces coaxial and flat ribbon cable primarily for communication markets, including cable television. The Company evaluates the performance of business units on, among other things, profit or loss from operations before interest expense, goodwill and other intangible amortization expense, headquarters' expense allocations, income taxes and nonrecurring gains and losses. The Company's reportable segments are an aggregation of business units that have similar production processes and products. The segment results for the three months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999 are as follows: <TABLE> <CAPTION> INTERCONNECT PRODUCTS AND ASSEMBLIES CABLE PRODUCTS TOTAL --------------------- ------------------- ------------------- 2000 1999 2000 1999 2000 1999 --------- --------- -------- -------- -------- -------- <S> <C> <C> <C> <C> <C> <C> Net sales: -external.............. $267,237 $196,148 $87,457 $60,709 $354,694 $256,857 -intersegment.......... -- 210 6,023 2,328 6,023 2,538 Segment operating income................. 52,247 36,472 18,243 13,132 70,490 49,604 </TABLE> 8

Management does not expect that amounts, if any, which may be required to be paid by reason of such proceedings or claims will have a material effect on the Company's financial condition or results of operations. Subsequent to the acquisition of Amphenol from Allied Signal Corporation ("Allied") in 1987, Amphenol and Allied have been named jointly and severally liable as potentially responsible parties in relation to several environmental cleanup sites. Amphenol and Allied have jointly consented to perform certain investigations and remedial and monitoring activities at two sites and they have been jointly ordered to perform work at another site. The responsibility for costs incurred relating to these sites is apportioned between Amphenol and Allied based on an agreement entered into in connection with the acquisition. For sites covered by this agreement, to the extent that conditions or circumstances occurred or existed at the time of or prior to the acquisition, Allied is currently obligated to pay 80% of the costs up to $30,000 and 100% of the costs in excess of $30,000. Management does not believe that the costs associated with resolution of these or any other environmental matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition or results of operations. 9
AMPHENOL CORPORATION NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE DATA) A subsidiary of the Company has an agreement with a financial institution whereby the subsidiary can sell an undivided interest of up to $85,000 in a designated pool of qualified accounts receivable. The agreement expires in May 2004 with respect to $60,000 of accounts receivable and expires in June 2001 with respect to an additional $25,000 of accounts receivable. Under the terms of the agreement, new receivables are added to the pool as collections reduce previously sold accounts receivable. The Company services, administers and collects the receivables on behalf of the purchaser. Fees payable to the purchaser under this agreement are equivalent to rates afforded high quality commercial paper issuers plus certain administrative expenses and are included in other expenses, net, in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income. The agreement contains certain covenants and provides for various events of termination. In certain circumstances the Company is contingently liable for the collection of the receivables sold; management believes that its allowance for doubtful accounts is adequate to absorb the expense of any such liability. At September 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999, approximately $85,000 and $60,000, respectively, in receivables were sold under the agreement and are therefore not reflected in the accounts receivable balance in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at those dates. NOTE 5--STOCK SPLIT On March 14, 2000, the Board of Directors approved a two-for-one split of the Company's common stock to be paid to shareholders of record as of March 23, 2000. On April 24, 2000, the Company's shareholders approved an increase in the number of authorized shares from 40,000,000 to 100,000,000. On April 24, 2000, each shareholder received one additional share of common stock for each share of stock then held. All share and per-share amounts in the financial statements and footnotes have been restated to reflect the split. 10
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE DATA) ITEM 2. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS QUARTER AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2000 COMPARED TO THE QUARTER AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1999 Net sales for the third quarter of 2000 increased approximately 38% to $354,694 compared to sales of $256,857 for the same period in 1999. Net sales for the nine months of 2000 increased approximately 34% to $990,253 compared to sales of $741,459 for the same period in 1999. The increase in sales for the third quarter and nine months of 2000 is primarily attributable to increased sales of interconnect products and cable products for communications markets. In addition, sales of interconnect products for aerospace and industrial applications increased in the third quarter and nine months of 2000 compared to the same periods in 1999. Currency translation had the effect of reducing sales by approximately $9.5 million and $22.5 million in the third quarter and nine month period of 2000, respectively, when compared to exchange rates for the comparable 1999 periods. The gross profit margin as a percentage of net sales (including depreciation in cost of sales) increased approximately 1% for the third quarter and nine months 2000 compared to the 1999 periods. The increase in the gross profit margin is primarily attributable to changes in product mix and the absorption of fixed costs over higher sales volume. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales declined approximately 1% for the third quarter and nine months 2000 compared to the 1999 periods primarily because of absorption of fixed costs over higher sales volume. Interest expense for the third quarter and nine months of 2000 decreased to $15,462 and $46,799 compared to $20,001 and $59,673 for the 1999 periods, respectively. The decrease in both periods is primarily attributable to lower average debt levels. The provision for income taxes for the nine months of 2000 was at an effective rate of 38% compared to 42% in the 1999 period. The decrease is generally attributable to non-deductible expenses (goodwill amortization) being a lower percentage of pretax income. The effective tax rate, excluding non-deductible goodwill amortization for the third quarter and nine months 2000, was 35% compared to 36% in the 1999 periods. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Cash provided by operating activities was $105,642 in the nine months of 2000 compared to $40,167 in the 1999 period. The increase in cash flow relates primarily to an increase in net income adjusted for depreciation and amortization charges and a net decrease in use of working capital. For the nine months of 2000, cash from operating activities and proceeds from the sale of additional accounts receivable were used to fund capital expenditures of $35,454 and acquisitions of $60,528, and to repay indebtedness of $32,051. For the nine months of 1999, cash from operating activities was used to fund capital expenditures of $18,299 and acquisitions of $1,416, and to repay indebtedness of $14,578. In conjunction with a Merger and Recapitalization in 1997, the Company entered into a $900 million bank agreement comprised of a $150 million revolving credit facility that expires in the year 2004 and a $750 million term loan facility. The term loan facility, as modified, included a $350 million Tranche A maturing over a 7 year period ending 2004, and a $375 million Tranche B with 11
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED) (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE DATA) required amortization in 2005 and 2006. The bank agreement is secured by pledges of 100% of the capital stock of the Company's direct domestic subsidiaries and 65% of the capital stock of direct material foreign subsidiaries, requires the maintenance of certain interest coverage and leverage ratios, and includes limitations with respect to, among other things, indebtedness and restricted payments, including dividends on the Company's common stock. At September 30, 2000 there were $574.2 million of borrowings outstanding under the term loan facility. Availability under the revolving credit facility at September 30, 2000 was $143.8 million, after reduction of $6.2 million for outstanding letters of credit. The Company has entered into interest rate swap agreements that effectively fix the Company's interest cost on $450 million of borrowings under the bank agreement to the extent that LIBOR interest rates remain below 7% for $300 million of borrowings and below 8% for $150 million of borrowings. The Company's EBITDA, as defined in the bank agreement, was $212.1 million and $155.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. EBITDA is not a defined term under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and is not an alternative to operating income or cash flow from operations as determined under GAAP. The Company believes that EBITDA provides additional information for determining its ability to meet future debt service requirements; however, EBITDA does not reflect cash available to fund cash requirements. The Company's primary ongoing cash requirements will be for debt service, capital expenditures and product development activities. The Company's debt service requirements consist primarily of principal and interest on bank borrowings and interest on its 9 7/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2007. The Company has not paid, and does not have any present intention to commence payment of, cash dividends on its common stock. The Company expects that ongoing requirements for debt service, capital expenditures and product development activities will be funded by internally-generated cash flow and availability under the Company's revolving credit facility. The Company may also use cash to fund part or all of the cost of future acquisitions. ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS Subsequent to the acquisition of Amphenol Corporation in 1987, Amphenol and Allied have been named jointly and severally liable as potentially responsible parties in relation to several environmental cleanup sites. Amphenol and Allied have jointly consented to perform certain investigations and remedial and monitoring activities at two sites and they have been jointly ordered to perform work at another site. The responsibility for costs incurred relating to these sites is apportioned between Amphenol and Allied based on an agreement entered into in connection with the acquisition. For sites covered by this agreement, to the extent that conditions or circumstances occurred or existed at the time of or prior to the acquisition, Allied is currently obligated to pay 80% of the costs up to $30 million and 100% of the costs in excess of $30 million. Management does not believe that the costs associated with resolution of these or any other environmental matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition or results of operations. 12
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (CONTINUED) (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE DATA) RECENT ACCOUNTING CHANGE In June 1998 the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133 (FAS 133), "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." This statement requires that an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the Statement of Financial Position and measure those instruments at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative (that is, gains and losses) depends on the intended use of the derivative and its resulting designation. The Company is in the process of evaluating the effect this new standard will have on the Company's financial statements. The Company is required to adopt FAS 133, as amended by FAS 138, beginning January 1, 2001. In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") 101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements," which provides guidance related to revenue recognition based on interpretations and practices followed by the SEC. SAB 101, as amended by SAB 101A and SAB 101B, is effective for the Company's fourth quarter of 2000. It requires companies to report any changes in revenue recognition as a cumulative change in accounting principle at the time of implementation in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion 20, "Accounting Changes." The Company does not expect that SAB 101, as amended, will have a material effect on its financial position or results of operations. EURO CURRENCY CONVERSION On January 1, 1999, certain member countries of the European Union established fixed conversion rates between their existing currencies and the European Union's common currency (the "euro"). The transition period for the introduction of the euro began on January 1, 1999. Beginning January 1, 2002, the participating countries will issue new euro-denominated bills and coins for use in cash transactions. No later than July 1, 2002, the participating countries will withdraw all bills and coins denominated in the legacy currencies, so that the legacy currencies will no longer be legal tender for any transactions, making the conversion to the euro complete. The Company is addressing the issues involved with the introduction of the euro. Based on progress to date, the Company believes that the use of the euro will not have a significant impact on the manner in which it conducts its business. Accordingly, conversion to the euro is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, consolidated results of operations, or liquidity. SAFE HARBOR STATEMENT Statements in this report that are not historical are "forward-looking" statements which should be considered as subject to the many uncertainties that exist in the Company's operations and business environment. These uncertainties which include, among other things, economic and currency conditions, market demand and pricing and competitive and cost factors are set forth in the Company's 1999 Annual Report on Form 10-K. ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK There has been no material change in the Company's assessment of its sensitivity to market risk since its presentation set forth, in Item 7A. "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk," in its 1999 Annual Report on Form 10-K. 13
