2 ALPHA INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES PART I ITEM 1 BUSINESS OVERVIEW We design, develop, manufacture and market proprietary radio frequency, microwave frequency and millimeter wave frequency integrated circuits and discrete semiconductors for wireless voice and data and broadband communications. The primary applications for our products include wireless voice and data handsets. We also produce integrated circuits, discrete components, electrical ceramics and ferrites used in wireless base station equipment, cable television, cable modems and other broadband applications, wireless local loop, wireless personal digital assistants and wireless local area networks. We offer a broad range of products, including integrated circuit, or IC, switches and controls, power amplifiers, diodes and components that comprise a significant part of the radio frequency devices used in wireless telephone handsets. We use a range of technologies, processes and materials to meet our customers' performance requirements, including gallium arsenide metal semiconductor field effect transistor, or GaAs MESFET, gallium arsenide pseudomorphic high electron mobility transistor, or GaAs PHEMT, silicon and electrical ceramic. Through our acquisition of Network Device, Inc. ("NDI"), we will offer power amplifiers and other devices made with a gallium arsenide heterojunction bipolar transistor, or GaAs HBT, process. We divide our operations into three groups to address the distinct dynamics of different markets: WIRELESS SEMICONDUCTOR APPLICATION SPECIFIC PRODUCTS CERAMIC PRODUCTS PRODUCTS - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Primary Products GaAs Integrated Circuits Electrical Ceramics GaAs Integrated Circuits Discrete Semiconductors Ferrites Discrete Semiconductors Components Primary Markets Wireless Handsets Wireless Infrastructure Satellite Communications Wireless Data Broadband Data Broadband Data Broadband Data The Wireless Semiconductor Products Group supplies GaAs integrated circuits and discrete semiconductors in high volume for wireless telephone handsets and wireless data applications. These products are used in equipment incorporating the leading digital standards, Global System for Mobile Communications, or GSM, Code Division Multiple Access, or CDMA ("IS95"), and Time Division Multiple Access, or TDMA ("IS136"). The Ceramic Products Group uses electrical ceramic and ferrite technologies to supply resonators and filters, primarily for wireless base station equipment. The Application Specific Products Group supplies radio frequency, microwave frequency and millimeter wave frequency GaAs integrated circuits, and discrete semiconductors and components for the broadband data and satellite communications markets. We leverage our 30 years of experience with higher frequency microwave and millimeter wave technologies to develop high gross margin products and to develop new products for emerging wireless broadband data applications. 2

3 ALPHA INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES PRODUCTS AND APPLICATIONS We offer a broad array of radio frequency, microwave frequency and millimeter wave frequency products to the wireless and broadband markets, including GaAs integrated circuit switches and controls, GaAs integrated circuit power amplifiers, silicon discrete semiconductors and ceramic resonators and filters. A typical end product for wireless communications, such as a handset, contains radio frequency, baseband and digital signal processing components. Radio frequency components convert, switch, process and amplify the high frequency signals that carry the information to be transmitted or received. Baseband components process signals into and from their original electrical form (low frequency voice or data). The digital components control the overall circuitry and process the voice or other data to be transmitted and received. The table below identifies the major product categories and markets we serve.

4 ALPHA INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES WIRELESS SEMICONDUCTOR PRODUCTS The diagram below illustrates the role of many of our Wireless Semiconductor Products in a dual band and dual mode wireless telephone handset. [ai] ALPHA PRODUCTS IN A DUAL BAND/DUAL MODE HANDSET GaAs RF IC Switches GaAs RF Power Amplifiers Discrete Semiconductors - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [CELL-PHONE SCHEMATIC] There is a picture of a cellular telephone on the right side of the page. To the left of the telephone is a diagram depicting various parts of a dual band/dual mode handset and identifying those parts which we supply. Power Amplifiers. Wireless communications systems require amplification in receiving and transmitting signals. Relatively weak incoming signals must be amplified without adding background noise. GaAs power amplifiers are used in handsets because they use battery power more efficiently than silicon amplifiers, and battery life is a critical system feature in these portable applications. Alpha has been a leader in innovative GaAs power amplifier ICs. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2000, we became the first merchant semiconductor company to offer a 3 volt, high-efficiency PHEMT power amplifier IC for GSM operating at three different frequencies. We were also the first to deliver a 3 volt MESFET GaAs power amplifier IC, which has now been in continuous, high-volume production for more than two years. In addition, our acquisition of NDI has provided us with GaAs HBT process technology, which we believe will open new power amplifier opportunities and complement our existing strength in the GaAs PHEMT and GaAs MESFET processes. Integrated Circuit Switches and Controls. Switching and control functions route and adjust signal levels between the receiver and transmitter and other processing devices. The number of switching functions increases with the complexity of the handset design. In the dual band/dual mode handset illustrated, the switches perform three different routing functions, including: signal routing to transmitter or receiver; signal routing to cellular or PCS frequency; and signal routing to digital or analog mode. Our GaAs integrated circuit switches are used in handsets to provide lower signal loss and better signal isolation than comparable silicon products. Our new, ultra-high-efficiency GaAs PHEMT switch ICs now 4

5 ALPHA INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES integrate logic elements, making their usage even easier for our OEM customers. Our first volume order of Alpha's advanced GaAs PHEMT switch ICs that operate with positive-only 3 volt supply is currently in production. Transistors using the GaAs HBT process have not been suitable for switches. Discrete Semiconductors. Discrete semiconductors, especially diodes, are used for signal tuning and switching functions in the handset. We draw on our microwave frequency and millimeter wave frequency experience to produce diodes with better circuit performance. We manufacture these products in very high volumes to several handset OEMs. CERAMIC PRODUCTS Our ceramic products play a critical role in the signal selection, or filtering process, that is essential to processing communications signals. Ceramic materials allow for improved power efficiency and miniaturization, which are being increasingly used in wireless communications infrastructure. Ceramic products are also critical in the frequency-determining portions of DBS receivers, radar detectors and intrusion alarms. APPLICATION SPECIFIC PRODUCTS We offer customized products that address all transmit and receive functions for radio frequency, microwave frequency and millimeter wave frequency applications, primarily in the broadband data and satellite communications markets. The millimeter wave applications are an emerging area of broadband, high capacity data wireless services, such as Internet access. Systems operating in this frequency range must use GaAs. MARKETING AND DISTRIBUTION We sell our products through independent manufacturers' representatives and through a direct sales staff. We sell through 13 domestic and 23 international independent manufacturers' representative organizations. Our field support management staff oversees our manufacturers' representatives and provides them with sales direction and support. Our direct sales staff manages key customer accounts and worldwide customer support and identifies and targets sales in the emerging wireless data markets. We maintain an internal marketing organization that is responsible for developing sales and advertising literature, such as product announcements, catalogs, brochures and magazine articles in trade and other publications. Our internal marketing organization also prepares technical presentations for industry conferences. We believe that the technical and complex nature of our products and markets demands an extraordinary commitment to close ongoing relationships with our customers. We strive to maintain close contact with our customers' design, engineering, manufacturing, and purchasing and project management personnel. We employ a team approach in developing close relationships by combining the support of design and applications engineers, manufacturing personnel, sales and marketing staff and senior management. We believe that maintaining close contact with our customers improves their level of satisfaction, assists us in anticipating their future product needs and enhances our opportunities for design wins. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT Our products and markets are subject to continued technological advances. Recognizing this, we maintain a high level of R&D activities to remain competitive in certain areas and to be an industry leader in other areas. We are focusing our development efforts on new products, design tools and manufacturing processes in our Wireless Semiconductor Products group using our core technologies. We strive to improve existing product performance, improve design and manufacturing processes and reduce costs. We maintain close collaborative 5

6 ALPHA INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES relationships with many of our customers to help us identify market demands and target our development efforts to meet those demands. GaAs HBT Capabilities. On April 24, 2000, we acquired NDI of Sunnyvale, California. The acquisition provides a production-ready GaAs Indium Gallium Phosphide HBT process, enabling the production of high efficiency HBT power amplifiers for wireless telephone handsets. GaAs HBT process technology works at higher frequencies and requires less power to transmit signals than traditional silicon semiconductors, and it provides greater efficiency and linearity than GaAs MESFET devices. For cellular telephones, this permits smaller handsets and longer talk-time between battery charges. HBT power amplifiers are also particularly well suited for use in the emerging broadband data equipment markets. We believe that the addition of a line of GaAs HBT products will complement our existing GaAs PHEMT and GaAs MESFET devices, enabling us to offer our customers the full range of currently available GaAs processes for use in wireless telephone handsets and wireless data applications. Our R&D expenditures for fiscal 2000, 1999 and 1998 were $20.7 million, $12.9 million and $10.0 million, respectively. RAW MATERIALS Raw materials for our products and manufacturing processes are generally available from several sources. It is our policy not to depend on a sole source of supply. However, there are limited situations where we procure certain components and services for our products from single or limited sources. We purchase these materials and services on a purchase order basis, do not carry significant inventories and do not have any long-term supply contracts with our source vendors. WORKING CAPITAL Our business is not seasonal, and there are no special practices with respect to working capital for us or the industry in general. We provide a limited warranty on our products against defects in material and workmanship. Payment terms are 30 days in the domestic market and generally 60 days in foreign markets. CUSTOMERS During fiscal 2000, one customer, Motorola, Inc., accounted for approximately 34% of our total sales and no other single customer accounted for 10% or more of our total sales. COMPETITIVE CONDITIONS We compete on the basis of price, performance, quality, reliability, size, ability to meet delivery requirements and customer service and support. We experience intense competition worldwide from a number of multinational companies that offer a variety of competitive products and broader product lines, and which have substantially greater financial resources and production, marketing, manufacturing, engineering and other capabilities than us. We also face competition from a number of smaller companies. In addition, our customers, particularly our largest customers, may have or could acquire the capability to develop or manufacture products competitive with those that have been or may be developed or manufactured by us. 6

7 ALPHA INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES PATENTS AND TRADEMARKS We own a small number of patents and have other patent applications under preparation or pending. However, we believe that our technological position depends primarily on the ability to develop new innovative products through the technical competence of our engineering personnel. We have applied for a U.S. patent on an innovative GaAs switch IC design that we believe will become the preferred technology for wireless handsets and other portable applications. BACKLOG Our policy is to book only the next three months of commercial orders consistent with customer short term requirements. Many commercial orders cover substantially more than three months of performance, but such orders can be modified or cancelled by the customer easily and we believe it is a better practice to limit the bookings in this manner. On this basis, we believe all orders in our backlog to be firm. We have backlog of undelivered orders on April 2, 2000 of approximately $55.7 million compared with $36.9 million on March 28, 1999. ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATIONS In our opinion, compliance with federal, state, and local environmental protection regulations does not and will not have a material effect on our capital expenditures, earnings and competitive position.

ITEM 2 PROPERTIES The following information describes the major facilities we own and lease. We believe we have adequate production capacity to meet our current business needs, but we are adding the capacity required to better serve the wireless market as demand continues to grow. In September 1999, we announced the completion of the first phase of a major expansion program that enhanced and expanded the available clean room space in our GaAs IC fabrication facility in Massachusetts. The new clean room space is complete and in use, and additional manufacturing equipment has been installed and brought to full productivity. As demand for our GaAs products continues to increase, we have accelerated the second phase of expansion in our fab. This second phase involves the installation of additional production equipment, without the need for additional clean room construction. We expect the total cost of this second phase to approximate $12 million and to be complete by the end of the summer of 2000. 8

9 ALPHA INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES a) We own a 158,000 square foot building in Woburn, Massachusetts. This plant houses our primary GaAs IC fabrication facility and our corporate headquarters. We doubled output capacity in this facility in 1999, and a second doubling will be complete by the end of the summer of 2000. We are now implementing a conversion of a portion of this facility, which will allow us to manufacture product on six inch GaAs wafers, more than doubling its capacity again. This project is expected to be complete within twelve to fifteen months. b) We lease a 27,000 square foot building in Sunnyvale, California. This facility houses our second GaAs IC fabrication facility and was acquired in our purchase of Network Device, Inc. in April 2000. We are currently expanding capacity in this facility to meet demand for our IC products. c) We own a 92,000 square foot facility in Adamstown, Maryland.

11 ALPHA INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES ITEM 7 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OVERVIEW We design, develop, manufacture and market proprietary radio frequency, microwave frequency and millimeter wave frequency integrated circuits and discrete semiconductors for wireless and broadband communications markets. Our operations are currently organized into three reportable segments: The Wireless Semiconductor Products Group supplies GaAs integrated circuits and discrete semiconductors in high volume for wireless telephone handsets and broadband data applications. This group represented 64.3% of our total sales in fiscal 2000. The Ceramic Products Group uses electrical ceramic and ferrite technologies to supply resonators and filters, primarily for wireless base station equipment. This group represented 19.5% of our total sales in fiscal 2000. The Application Specific Products Group supplies radio frequency, microwave frequency and millimeter wave frequency GaAs integrated circuits, and discrete semiconductors and components for customized products in the broadband data and satellite communications markets. This group represented 16.2% of our total sales in fiscal 2000. Our customers include leading OEMs in the wireless and broadband communications industry and their principal suppliers. During fiscal 2000, sales to our 15 largest customers accounted for 64.8% of our total sales. During that period, sales to Motorola accounted for 34.1% of total sales. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following table shows our statement of operations data expressed as a percentage of sales for the periods indicated: YEARS ENDED ------------------------------------------------------ APRIL 2, 2000 MARCH 28, 1999 MARCH 29, 1998 ------------- -------------- -------------- Sales...................................... 100.0% 100.0% 100.0% Cost of sales.............................. 55.8 56.3 62.3 ----- ----- ----- Gross margin............................... 44.2 43.7 37.7 Research and development expenses.......... 11.3 10.2 8.6 Selling and administrative expenses........ 16.2 18.0 19.1 ----- ----- ----- Operating income........................... 16.7 15.5 10.0 Other income (expense), net................ 3.2 0.5 (0.2) ----- ----- ----- Income before income taxes................. 19.9 16.0 9.8 Provision (benefit) for income taxes....... 6.7 (1.0) 1.0 ----- ----- ----- Net income................................. 13.2% 17.0% 8.8% ===== ===== ===== 11

12 ALPHA INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES FISCAL YEARS ENDED APRIL 2, 2000, MARCH 28, 1999 AND MARCH 29, 1998 Sales. Sales increased 46.2% to $184.7 million in fiscal 2000 from $126.3 million in fiscal 1999. The increase was primarily attributable to increased demand for wireless products, as well as for products in emerging broadband data applications. Sales increased 8.1% to $126.3 million in fiscal 1999 from $116.9 million in fiscal 1998. The increase was primarily due to increased demand for wireless products and our penetration into additional handset platforms. Defense sales decreased to 7.8% of total sales in fiscal 2000 from 17.2% in fiscal 1999 and 17.6% in 1998, as we exit the defense market by offering last time buys to our customers and concluding existing contracts. Deliveries to Motorola represented 34.1% of our total sales in fiscal 2000 compared to 28.1% in fiscal 1999 and 24.7% in fiscal 1998. Gross Profit. Gross profit increased 47.9% to $81.6 million in fiscal 2000 from $55.2 million in fiscal 1999. Gross margin increased to 44.2% in fiscal 2000 from 43.7% in fiscal 1999. These increases were primarily a result of improved operating efficiencies in our Wireless Semiconductor and Ceramics Groups, as both continued to leverage capacity and improve yields. Gross profit increased 25.2% to $55.2 million in fiscal 1999 from $44.1 million in fiscal 1998. Gross margin increased to 43.7% in fiscal 1999 from 37.7% in fiscal 1998. These increases were primarily due to improved operating efficiencies in all three business segments, particularly in Wireless Semiconductors, which continued to leverage capacity, improve yields and reduce material costs. Research and Development Expenses. Research and development expenses increased 60.9% to $20.7 million or 11.3% of sales in fiscal 2000 from $12.9 million or 10.2% of sales in fiscal 1999. The increase in research and development expenses was primarily attributable to the development of processes and applications in the Wireless Semiconductor Products Group, as approximately 80% of our total research and development spending in fiscal 2000 was within this segment. Research and development expenses increased 28.4% to $12.9 million or 10.2% of sales in fiscal 1999 from $10.0 million or 8.6% of sales in fiscal 1998. Over 75% of our total research and development expenses in fiscal 1999 and 1998 were focused on the Wireless Semiconductor Products Group's efforts in developing GaAs integrated circuits and other high volume wireless products. Selling and Administrative Expenses. Selling and administrative expenses increased 31.8% to $30.0 million or 16.2% of sales in fiscal 2000 from $22.8 million or 18.0% of sales in fiscal 1999. The increase in selling and administrative expenses was attributable to increased sales commissions and direct selling costs resulting from higher sales volumes, as well as increased expenses related to training, recruiting and an increased sales force. Because we have the infrastructure in place to support our sales growth, selling and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales declined in fiscal 2000 over fiscal 1999. Selling and administrative expenses increased 1.8% to $22.8 million or 18.0% of sales in fiscal 1999 from $22.4 million or 19.1% of sales in fiscal 1998. The increase in selling and administrative expenses was attributable to increased sales commissions resulting from higher sales volumes, while the decrease in selling and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales was attributable to our continued efforts to control administrative costs. Other Income (Expense), Net. Interest expense in fiscal 2000 declined $154,000 when compared to fiscal 1999 as a result of a continuing decline in outstanding borrowings. The increase in interest income of $5.3 million in fiscal 2000 over fiscal 1999 was due to considerably higher levels of cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments. Other expenses increased $208,000 in fiscal 2000 compared to fiscal 1999 due to losses resulting from the disposal of equipment in fiscal 2000. Net other income in fiscal 1999 increased $911,000 compared to fiscal 1998 primarily due to increases in interest income as a result of higher levels of cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments. 12

13 ALPHA INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES Provision (Benefit) for Income Taxes. The provision for income taxes in fiscal 2000 was $12.4 million compared to an income tax benefit of $1.3 million in fiscal 1999. The fiscal 2000 provision reflects a tax rate of 34% while the fiscal 1999 benefit reflects a 10% tax rate offset by a $3.3 million tax benefit. The tax benefit of $3.3 million resulted from a reduction in the valuation allowance against deferred tax assets because of the expected use of net operating loss carryforwards in future periods. The benefit for income taxes in fiscal 1999 was $1.3 million compared to a provision for income taxes of $1.1 million in fiscal 1998. Our effective tax rate in fiscal 1998 was 10% due to the utilization of net operating loss carryforwards. BUSINESS SEGMENTS The table below displays sales and operating income by business segment for fiscal 2000, 1999 and 1998. See Note 9 to the consolidated financial statements. YEARS ENDED APRIL 2, MARCH 28, MARCH 29, 2000 1999 1998 --------- ----------- --------- (in thousands) SALES Wireless Semiconductor Products........................... $118,779 $ 65,822 $ 52,612 Ceramic Products.......................................... 36,054 25,540 27,151 Application Specific Products............................. 29,872 34,977 37,118 -------- -------- -------- $184,705 $126,339 $116,881 ======== ======== ======== OPERATING INCOME Wireless Semiconductor Products........................... $ 18,785 $ 7,435 $ 2,799 Ceramic Products.......................................... 4,632 1,879 1,679 Application Specific Products............................. 7,492 10,241 7,210 -------- -------- -------- $ 30,909 $ 19,555 $ 11,688 ======== ======== ======== Wireless Semiconductor Products. Sales for the Wireless Semiconductor Products Group increased 80.5% to $118.8 million in fiscal 2000 from $65.8 million in fiscal 1999. The increase reflects a growing wireless market to include data, increased market penetration and gains in market share. Sales for the Wireless Semiconductor Products Group increased 25.1% to $65.8 million in fiscal 1999 from $52.6 million in fiscal 1998. The increase was primarily attributable to increased demand for wireless products and our penetration into additional handset platforms. Operating income for the Wireless Semiconductor Group increased 152.7% to $18.8 million in fiscal 2000 from $7.4 million in fiscal 1999. The increase was primarily attributable to increased sales and improved operating efficiencies as this group continued to leverage capacity and control material costs. Additionally, as this group continued its development of processes and applications for the wireless market, it was able to control administrative costs. Operating income for the Wireless Semiconductor Products Group increased 165.6% to $7.4 million in fiscal 1999 from $2.8 million in fiscal 1998. The increase in operating income was primarily attributable to increased sales and improved operating efficiencies. Ceramic Products. Sales for the Ceramics Group increased 41.2% to $36.1 million in fiscal 2000 from $25.5 million in fiscal 1999. The increase in sales was primarily attributable to growth in wireless infrastructure combined with added customer penetration, as well as an increasing demand from emerging broadband customers. Sales for the Ceramics Group decreased 5.9% to $25.5 million in fiscal 1999 from $27.2 million in fiscal 1998. The decrease was primarily attributable to a decreased level of sales for the first half of fiscal 1999 mainly due to lower than expected demand for wireless infrastructure and price competition from Japanese competitors whose currency declined in value against the U.S. dollar. 13

14 ALPHA INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES Operating income for the Ceramics Group increased 146.5% to $4.6 million in fiscal 2000 from $1.9 million in fiscal 1999. The increase in operating income was primarily attributable to an increase in sales and improved operating efficiencies, including the leveraging of capacity and increased manufacturing automation. Operating income for the Ceramics Group increased 11.9% to $1.9 million in fiscal 1999 from $1.7 million in fiscal 1998. The increase in operating income was primarily attributable to reduced material costs and improved operating efficiencies. Application Specific Products. Sales for the Application Specific Products Group decreased 14.6% to $29.9 million in fiscal 2000 from $35.0 million in fiscal 1999. Sales continue to decline as we exit non-strategic businesses and focus our efforts on the broadband and wireless markets. Sales for the Application Specific Products Group decreased 5.8% to $35.0 million in fiscal 1999 from $37.1 million in fiscal 1998. The decrease was primarily attributable to our increasing focus on the commercial market and a continuing shift away from the defense market. Operating income for the Application Specific Products Group decreased 26.8% to $7.5 million in fiscal 2000 from $10.2 million in fiscal 1999. This group continued to realign its cost structure to current volumes, reporting a gross margin of over 50% and operating margin of over 25% for fiscal 2000. Operating income for the Application Specific Products Group increased 42.0% to $10.2 million in fiscal 1999 from $7.2 million in fiscal 1998. The increase in operating income was primarily attributable to improved operating efficiencies, including improved yields and reduced material costs. In addition, the Group's selling and administrative activities were significantly reduced as the Group continued to focus on controlling costs. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES As of April 2, 2000, we had working capital of $163.4 million, including $140.0 million in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments. In fiscal 2000, operations generated $38.9 million of cash primarily attributable to net income of $24.4 million. In addition, we effectively managed working capital as evidenced by an increase in average annual inventory turns to 9.9 in fiscal 2000 compared to 8.5 in fiscal 1999 and a decrease in average annual days sales outstanding to 55 days in fiscal 2000 compared to 60 days in fiscal 1999. In June 1999, we completed a public offering of our common stock that raised net proceeds of $109.4 million. Uses of cash included $34.6 million for capital expenditures, $109.3 million for net purchases of short-term investments and $1.2 million for the repayment of long-term debt. Of the $34.6 million in capital expenditures, approximately $28.3 million was related to the Wireless Semiconductor Products Group as we continued our investment in the semiconductor GaAs wafer fabrication operation and the integrated circuit and discrete semiconductor assembly and test areas. In September 1999, we announced the completion of the first phase of a major expansion program to enhance and expand the available clean room space in our GaAs IC facility in Massachusetts. The new clean room space is complete and in use, and additional manufacturing equipment has been installed and brought to full productivity. The second phase of this project has been accelerated due to continued increase in demand for our GaAs products. The second phase, which involves the installation of additional production equipment within the existing facility, is expected to be complete by the end of the summer of 2000 at an estimated total cost of $12 million. We are in the initial stages of the third phase of this project, which involves the conversion of our Massachusetts GaAs IC facility to allow us to manufacture product on six inch wafers. We expect to complete this phase within twelve to fifteen months. Improvements in manufacturing capabilities at the ceramics facility accounted for approximately $4.2 million of capital expenditures. In November 1999, we entered into a $10 million revolving credit agreement, which expires on October 31, 2000. There were no borrowings under this agreement at April 2, 2000. We expect to continue to maintain a debt facility upon expiration of this agreement. 14

15 ALPHA INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES In June 1999, we completed a public offering of our common stock that raised net proceeds of $109.4 million. Substantially all of the proceeds have been invested in commercial paper and securities issued by various federal agencies and corporations. The net proceeds may be used for the purchase of equipment, the expansion of facilities and the acquisition of businesses, technologies or products that complement our business. On February 11, 2000, we announced that we had signed a definitive agreement to acquire privately-held Network Device, Inc. of Sunnyvale, California. The acquisition, which was completed on April 24, 2000, will be accounted for as a pooling-of-interests. We believe that anticipated cash from operations, available funds and borrowings under our revolving credit agreement, together with the net proceeds from our recent stock offering, will be adequate to fund our currently planned working capital and capital expenditure requirements at least through fiscal 2001. OTHER MATTERS Inflation did not have a significant impact upon our results of operations during the three-year period ended April 2, 2000. Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Instruments" establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivatives and hedging activities. It requires that an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet and measure those instruments at fair value. SFAS No. 133 will be effective for our fiscal year 2002. We are currently evaluating the effects of SFAS No. 133. We do not expect this statement to have a material effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flow. FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS This report and other documents we have filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission contain forward-looking statements made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements represent our judgment regarding future events. Although we would not make forward-looking statements unless we believe we have a reasonable basis for doing so, we cannot guarantee their accuracy and actual results may differ materially from those we anticipated due to a number of uncertainties, many of which we are not aware. We urge you to consider the risks and uncertainties discussed below and elsewhere in this report and in the other documents filed with the SEC in evaluating our forward-looking statements. We have no plans to update our forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this report. We generally identify forward-looking statements with the words "plans," "expects," "anticipates," "estimates," "will," "should" and similar expressions. OUR RELIANCE ON A SMALL NUMBER OF CUSTOMERS FOR A LARGE PORTION OF OUR SALES COULD HAVE A MATERIAL ADVERSE EFFECT ON OUR RESULTS OF OPERATIONS. A significant portion of our sales in each fiscal period has been concentrated among a limited number of customers. If we lost one or more of these major customers, or if one or more major customers decreases its orders, our business would be materially and adversely affected. In recent periods, sales to our major customers as a percentage of total sales have increased. In fiscal 2000, sales to our five largest customers accounted for 50.9% of our sales, with Motorola accounting for 34.1% of sales. Our future operating results depend on the success of these customers and our success in selling products to them. OUR SALES VOLUME IS AFFECTED BY OUR OEM CUSTOMERS' SALES VOLUME. A substantial portion of our sales is derived from sales of products to OEMs. These OEMs demand highly reliable products and often require up to several months to evaluate and test our integrated circuits and devices before deciding to design them into their products. If our products are designed into an OEM's product, our sales volume will depend upon the commercial success and the length of the product cycle of the OEM's product. 15

16 ALPHA INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES DIFFICULTIES IN PRODUCTION WOULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR OPERATING RESULTS. Our products are very complex, have sophisticated designs and are manufactured using highly complex process technologies. Difficulties in production can occur which would limit our ability to ship product and adversely affect our operating results. In most cases, our products are customized for our customers who insist that our products meet their exact specifications for quality, performance and reliability. If we are unable to manufacture to our customers' specifications, our operating results will suffer. OUR OPERATING RESULTS ARE DEPENDENT ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF NEW PRODUCTS. Our future success will depend on our ability to develop new products in a timely and cost-effective manner. The development of our new products is highly complex. We have historically experienced delays in completing the development and introduction of new products. The successful development and introduction of new products depends on a number of factors, including our timely completion of product designs and development, our ability to develop manufacturing processes for new products, and commercial acceptance of our new products and enhancements. OUR FAILURE TO KEEP PACE WITH RAPID TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGES IN THE WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS INDUSTRY WOULD IMPAIR OUR GROWTH. The wireless communications markets are characterized by frequent introductions of new products and services. New products and services respond to evolving product and process technologies and consumer demand for greater functionality, lower costs, smaller products and better performance. As a result, we have experienced, and will continue to experience, product design obsolescence. We must continue to improve our product designs and develop new products with new technologies to meet our customers' demands. WE OPERATE IN VERY COMPETITIVE INDUSTRIES AND WE MAY BE UNABLE TO COMPETE SUCCESSFULLY. Competition in the markets for our products is intense. We compete with several companies primarily engaged in the business of designing, manufacturing and selling integrated circuits, discrete semiconductors and ceramic products, as well as suppliers of other discrete products. Our competitors could develop new process technologies that may be superior to ours. In addition, many of our existing and potential customers manufacture or assemble wireless communications devices and have substantial in-house technological capabilities. If one of our large customers decided to design and manufacture integrated circuits internally, it could have an adverse effect on our operating results. For example, we compete with our largest customer in the production of power amplifiers. Many of our existing and potential competitors have strong market positions, considerable internal manufacturing capacity, established intellectual property rights and substantial technological capabilities. Many of our existing and potential competitors have greater financial, technical, manufacturing and marketing resources than we do. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to compete successfully with our competitors. We expect competition to increase. This could mean lower prices for our products or reduced demand for our products. Any of these developments would have an adverse effect on our operating results. AVERAGE SELLING PRICES FOR OUR PRODUCTS TYPICALLY DECLINE OVER TIME. Average selling prices for our products decline over time. Many of our manufacturing costs are fixed. For a given level of sales, when our manufacturing costs decline, our gross margins improve, and when our manufacturing costs increase, our gross margins decline. Our operating results suffer when gross margins decline. We may experience these problems in the future and we cannot predict when they may occur or their severity. OUR OPERATING RESULTS WOULD SUFFER IF ONE OF OUR KEY SUPPLIERS FAILS TO DELIVER MATERIALS OR SERVICES FOR THE FABRICATION OF OUR PRODUCTS. We currently procure certain materials and services for our products from one or a limited number of suppliers. For example, we procure GaAs substrates, a critical raw material, from a small number of suppliers. In addition, we obtain some GaAs wafers from a single external foundry. Further, we procure silicon substrates for semiconductors and certain chemical powders for ceramic 16

17 ALPHA INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES manufacturing from single sources. We purchase these materials and services on a purchase order basis. We do not carry significant inventories or have any long-term supply contracts with our vendors. Our inability to obtain these materials or services in required quantities or in acceptable quality would result in significant delays or reductions in product shipments. This would materially and adversely affect our operating results. OUR OPERATING RESULTS MAY FLUCTUATE SIGNIFICANTLY. Our sales, earnings and other operating results have fluctuated significantly in the past and may fluctuate significantly in the future primarily as a result of the timing and receipt of our customers' orders and the potential for delay or deferral of customer implementation of our technology into their products. OUR BUSINESS COULD BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED BY OUR FAILURE TO FURTHER DEVELOP GaAS HBT TECHNOLOGY. We have acquired GaAs HBT technology through the acquisition of NDI. We are continuing to develop this GaAs HBT process technology primarily to manufacture power amplifiers and certain other components. We believe GaAs HBT components will be successfully designed into wireless telephone and wireless data handsets. While NDI provides manufacturing capacity and advanced process capabilities, we cannot guarantee that our efforts will result in commercially successful GaAs HBT products in the anticipated time or on budget. Certain of our competitors are already offering this capability and our customers may purchase their requirements for these products from our competitors. Our business and prospects could be materially and adversely affected by our failure to further develop and successfully manufacture this technology on schedule. THE BENEFITS OF OUR GaAS PRODUCTS COMPARED TO SILICON ALTERNATIVES MAY NOT CONTINUE. The production of GaAs integrated circuits is more costly than the production of silicon circuits. As a result, we must offer GaAs products that provide superior performance to that of silicon for specific applications to be competitive with silicon products. If we do not continue to offer products that provide sufficiently superior performance to offset the cost differential, our operating results may be materially and adversely affected. We believe our costs of producing GaAs integrated circuits will continue to exceed the costs associated with the production of silicon circuits. The costs differ because of higher costs of raw materials for GaAs, lower production yields in GaAs technology and higher unit costs associated with lower production volumes. Silicon semiconductor technologies are widely used process technologies for certain integrated circuits and these technologies continue to improve in performance. We cannot assure you that we will continue to identify markets that require performance superior to that offered by silicon solutions. WE FACE SIGNIFICANT CHALLENGES MANAGING OUR GROWTH. We are experiencing a period of significant growth that will continue to place a strain on our resources. To manage our growth effectively, we must continue to: - improve operational systems; - maintain adequate physical plant, manufacturing facilities and equipment to meet customer demand; - add experienced senior level managers; and - attract and retain qualified people with experience in engineering, design and manufacturing. We will spend substantial amounts of money in connection with our growth and may have additional unexpected costs. Our manufacturing equipment may not be adequate to support rapid increases in orders for our products, and we may not be able to expand quickly enough to exploit potential market opportunities. If we cannot attract qualified people or manage growth effectively, our business, operating results and financial condition could be adversely affected. THERE MAY BE UNANTICIPATED COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH INCREASING OUR CAPACITY. We anticipate that any future growth of our business will require increased manufacturing capacity. In response to this need, we are currently expanding our production capacity by adding manufacturing equipment, and we have begun to 17

18 ALPHA INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES implement a conversion of our Massachusetts GaAs IC fabrication facility to six-inch wafers. We may be required to purchase significant additional equipment or further expand our facilities if the increased demand for our products that we experienced in fiscal 2000 continues. Expansion activities such as these are subject to a number of risks, including: - unavailability or late delivery of the advanced, and often customized, equipment used in the production of our products; - delays in bringing new production equipment on-line; - work stoppages and delays in supplying products for our existing customers during expansion activities; and - unforeseen environmental or engineering problems relating to existing or new facilities. These and other risks may affect the ultimate cost and timing of our present expansion or any future expansion of our capacity. OUR INTERNATIONAL SALES COULD DECLINE AS A RESULT OF CURRENCY EXCHANGE FLUCTUATIONS AND OTHER FACTORS. Our sales outside of the United States were approximately $84.8 million in fiscal 2000, $45.8 million in fiscal 1999 and $39.2 million in fiscal 1998. Because most of our foreign sales are denominated in United States dollars, our products, particularly our ceramics products, become less price competitive with products manufactured by competitors based in countries whose currencies decline in value against the dollar. International sales involve a number of additional risks, including: - imposition of government controls; - potential insolvency of international distributors and representatives; - fluctuation of economies outside the United States; - political instability outside the United States; - generally longer receivables collection periods for foreign customers; and - tariffs and other trade barriers. In addition, due to the technological advantage provided by GaAs in many military applications, a portion of our sales outside of North America must be licensed by the Bureau of Export Administration of the United States Department of Commerce or the Office of Defense Trade Controls of the United States Department of State. Although we have not experienced any difficulty in obtaining these licenses, failure to obtain such licenses in the future could have a material adverse effect on our operating results. OUR COMPLIANCE WITH ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATIONS MAY BE COSTLY. We are subject to a variety of federal, state and local requirements governing the protection of the environment. These requirements relate to the use, storage, handling, discharge and disposal of toxic or otherwise hazardous materials used in our manufacturing processes. We may incur significant expense in complying with these requirements, and these requirements may become more stringent in the future. In the past, compliance with environmental regulations and our response to environmental claims and litigation has been costly. Failure to comply with environmental regulations could subject us to substantial liability or force us to change our manufacturing operations. In addition, under some of these regulations, we could be held financially responsible for remedial measures if our properties are contaminated, even if we did not cause the contamination. WE MAY HAVE DIFFICULTY IN PROTECTING OUR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY. Our ability to compete is affected by our ability to protect our intellectual property. A significant aspect of our intellectual property is our product and process technology. We rely primarily on trade secret laws, confidentiality procedures and licensing arrangements to protect our intellectual property. The laws of certain foreign countries in which our products are or may be developed, manufactured or sold may not protect our products or intellectual property rights to the same extent as do the laws of the United States. This may make the possibility of piracy of our technology and products more likely. We cannot assure you that the steps taken by us to protect our intellectual property will be adequate to prevent misappropriation of our technology. 18

19 ALPHA INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES OUR OPERATIONS COULD INFRINGE ON THE INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS OF OTHERS. Particular aspects of our technology could be found to infringe on the intellectual property rights or patents of others. Other companies may hold or obtain patents on inventions or may otherwise claim proprietary rights to technology necessary to our business. We cannot predict the extent to which we may be required to seek licenses. We cannot guarantee that the terms of any licenses we may be required to seek will be reasonable. WE MAY HAVE DIFFICULTY IN MANAGING AND INTEGRATING ACQUISITIONS. From time to time, we explore opportunities to acquire businesses to expand our production capacity and our product offerings, such as our acquisition of NDI. Acquisitions involve numerous risks, including: - difficulties in integrating operations, products and corporate cultures; - difficulties in completing the development of acquired technologies; - the ability to manage different geographic units; - entering markets or businesses in which we have limited experience; and - the loss of key employees of the acquired businesses. Moreover, any delay or failure to integrate an acquired company, technology or product line could result in the additional expenditure of money and in increased demands on our management's time. These expenditures and demands could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations and on the price of our common stock. Acquisitions may involve expending significant funds and the issuance of additional securities, which may be dilutive to stockholders. ITEM 7A QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK Market risk represents the risk of changes in the value of short-term investments and financial instruments caused by fluctuations in investment prices and interest rates. The Company handles market risks in accordance with established policies. The Company's risk-management activities include "forward-looking statements" that involve risk and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. INVESTMENT PRICE RISK The fair value of the Company's short-term investment portfolio at April 2, 2000, approximated carrying value due to its short-term duration. Market risk, estimated as the potential decrease in fair value resulting from a hypothetical 10% decrease in interest rates for the issues contained in the investment portfolio, is not considered to be material because of the short-term nature of the investments. INTEREST RATE RISK The carrying value of the Company's long-term debt, including current maturities, was $456,000 at April 2, 2000. Due to the nature of the debt instruments, management has determined that the fair value was not materially different from the year-end carrying value. 19

26 ALPHA INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Principles of Consolidation: The financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Fiscal Year: The Company's fiscal year ends on the Sunday closest to March 31. There were 53 weeks in fiscal 2000 and 52 weeks in fiscal 1999 and 1998. Use of Estimates: The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Revenue Recognition: Revenue is recognized when a product is shipped. Foreign Currency Translation: The accounts of foreign subsidiaries are translated in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 52. Foreign operations are remeasured as if the functional currency were the U.S. dollar. Monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the year end rates of exchange. Revenues and expenses (except cost of sales and depreciation) are translated at the average rate for the period. Non-monetary assets, equity, cost of sales and depreciation are remeasured at historical rates. Remeasurement gains and losses are reflected currently in operations and are not material. Research and Development Expenditures: Research and development expenditures are charged to income as incurred. Cash, Cash Equivalents and Short-Term Investments: Cash and cash equivalents include cash deposited in demand deposits at banks and highly liquid investments with original maturities of 90 days or less. The Company's short-term investments are classified as held-to-maturity. These investments consist primarily of commercial paper and securities issued by various federal agencies and corporations with original maturities of more than 90 days. Such short-term investments are carried at amortized cost, which approximates fair value, due to the short period of time to maturity. Gains and losses are included in investment income in the period they are realized. Inventories: Inventories are stated at the lower of cost, determined on a first-in, first-out basis, or market. 26

27 ALPHA INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) Property, Plant and Equipment: Property, plant and equipment are carried at cost. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method for financial reporting and accelerated methods for tax purposes. Estimated useful lives used for depreciation purposes are 5 to 30 years for buildings and improvements and 3 to 10 years for machinery and equipment. During fiscal 2000 and 1999, the Company removed $6.0 million and $6.5 million, respectively, of fully depreciated fixed assets from the related property, plant and equipment and accumulated depreciation accounts. Fair Value of Financial Instruments: Financial instruments of the Company consist of cash, cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities. The carrying value of these financial instruments approximates their fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments. Based upon borrowing rates currently available to the Company for issuance of similar debt with similar terms and remaining maturities, the estimated fair value of long-term debt approximates its carrying amount. The Company does not currently use derivative instruments. Income Taxes: The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under the asset and liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. This method also requires the recognition of future tax benefits such as net operating loss carryforwards, to the extent that realization of such benefits is more likely than not. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Net Income Per Common Share: Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share includes the dilutive effect of stock options, if their effect is dilutive, using the treasury stock method. A reconciliation of the weighted average number of shares outstanding used in the computation of the basic and diluted earnings per share for each of the following years: YEARS ENDED ------------------------------- APRIL 2, MARCH 28, MARCH 29, 2000 1999 1998 -------- -------- --------- (in thousands) Weighted average shares (basic)...... 37,994 31,649 30,603 Effect of dilutive stock options..... 2,038 1,052 820 ------ ------ ------ Weighted average shares (diluted).... 40,032 32,701 31,423 ====== ====== ====== 27

28 ALPHA INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of: The Company accounts for impairment of long-lived assets in accordance with SFAS No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of." This statement requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to undiscounted future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. This Statement has not had a material impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations, or liquidity. Stock Option Plans: The Company accounts for its stock-based compensation under the provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" and related interpretations and provides disclosure related to its stock-based compensation under the provisions of SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." Comprehensive Income: During fiscal 1999, the Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income." SFAS No. 130 is a financial statement presentation standard, which requires the Company to disclose non-owner changes included in equity but not included in net income or loss. There were no differences between net income and comprehensive income for fiscal 2000, 1999 and 1998. Recent Accounting Pronouncements: SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Instruments" establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivatives and hedging activities. It requires that an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet and measure those instruments at fair value. SFAS No. 133 will be effective for the Company's fiscal year 2002. The Company is currently evaluating the effects of SFAS No. 133. The Company does not expect this new statement to have a material effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flow.

The net change in the total valuation allowance for the years ended April 2, 2000 and March 28, 1999 was an increase of $40,000 and a decrease of $9.3 million, respectively. During fiscal 1999, the valuation allowance was reduced to reflect the deferred tax assets utilized in fiscal 1999 to reduce current income taxes and to recognize additional net deferred tax asset. The Company has minimum tax credit carryforwards of approximately $646,000, which are available to reduce future federal regular income taxes over an indefinite period. In addition, the Company has state tax credit carryforwards of $870,000, which are available to reduce state income taxes over an indefinite period. Cash payments for income taxes were $3.3 million, $915,000 and $342,000 in fiscal 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. During fiscal 2000, the Company recognized a deferred tax liability of approximately $216,000 for the planned repatriation of undistributed earnings of its 100 percent owned foreign subsidiaries. The $216,000 provides for the tax on the foreign retained earnings, net of U.S. tax credits for non-U.S. taxes. NOTE 5 COMMON STOCK COMMON STOCK SPLIT On January 27, 2000, the Board of Directors approved a two-for-one split of the Company's common stock, subject to stockholder approval of an increase in the Company's authorized shares from 30 million to 100 million. On March 28, 2000, the increase in authorized shares was approved at a Special Meeting of Stockholders. The two-for-one split was effected in the form of a stock dividend paid on April 19, 2000 to shareholders of record as of March 29, 2000. All agreements concerning stock options and other commitments payable in shares of the Company's common stock provide for the issuance of additional shares due to the declaration of the stock split. An amount equal to the par value of the common shares issued was transferred from additional paid-in capital to the common stock account. All share and per share data in these consolidated financial statements and related footnotes has been restated to reflect the stock split on a retroactive basis for all periods presented. LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLANS The Company adopted a long-term incentive plan in 1999 pursuant to which non-qualified stock options may be granted. The Company also adopted long-term incentive plans in 1986 and 1996 pursuant to which stock options, with or without stock appreciation rights, may be granted and restricted stock awards and book value awards may be made. 32

33 ALPHA INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) NOTE 5 COMMON STOCK (CONTINUED) Common Stock Options These options may be granted in the form of incentive stock options or non-qualified stock options. The option price may vary at the discretion of the Compensation Committee but shall not be less than the greater of fair market value or par value. The option term may not exceed ten years. The options may be exercised in cumulative annual increments commencing one year after the date of grant. A total of 9,750,000 shares are authorized for grant under the Company's long-term incentive plans. The number of common shares reserved for granting of future awards was 1,818,588 at April 2, 2000. Restricted Stock Awards No restricted shares of the Company's common stock were issued during fiscal 2000 and 1998. During fiscal 1999, a total of 12,132 restricted shares of the Company's common stock were granted to certain employees. The market value of these shares was $61,000 and the vesting period was one year. This amount was recorded as unearned compensation - restricted stock and is shown as a separate component of stockholders' equity. Unearned compensation was being amortized to expense over the vesting period and such expense amounted to $14,000, $90,000, and $31,000 in fiscal 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. LONG-TERM COMPENSATION PLAN On October 1, 1990, the Company adopted a Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan for certain key executives. There was no compensation expense in fiscal 2000 and compensation expense was $27,000 and $127,000 in fiscal 1999 and 1998, respectively.

Under the two plans, a total of 450,000 shares have been authorized for option grants. The two plans have substantially similar terms and conditions and are structured to provide options to non-employee directors as follows: a new Director receives a total of 45,000 options upon becoming a member of the Board; and continuing Directors receive 15,000 options after each Annual Meeting of Shareholders. Under both of these plans the option price is the fair market value at the time the option is granted. Options become exercisable 20% per year beginning one year from the date of grant. During fiscal 2000, 105,000 options were granted with 45,000 granted at a price of $16.36 and 60,000 granted at a price of $27.28. During fiscal 1999 and 1998, 60,000 and 225,000 shares were granted at prices of $6.59 and $5.17, respectively. At April 2, 2000, a total of 450,000 options have been granted under these two plans. During fiscal 2000, 84,000 options were exercised at a weighted average exercise price of $4.70. At April 2, 2000, 36,000 shares were exercisable. 35

Shares of 21,086, 51,506 and 59,280 were purchased under this plan in fiscal 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively. NOTE 6 EMPLOYMENT BENEFIT PLAN The Company maintains a 401(k) plan covering substantially all of its employees.

Discretionary Company contributions are determined by the Board of Directors and may be in the form of cash or the Company's stock.

Superfund site in Elkton, Maryland. Several hundred other companies have also been notified about their potential liability regarding this site.

Management is of the opinion that the outcome of the aforementioned environmental matter will not have a material effect on the Company's operations or financial position. The Company is party to suits and claims arising in the normal course of business. Management believes these are adequately provided for or will result in no significant additional liability to the Company. 36

Scientific Components Corporation, a beneficial owner of the Company's common stock, purchased approximately $7.4 million of products during fiscal 2000 and 1999 and $8.9 million of products during fiscal 1998. NOTE 9 SEGMENT INFORMATION The Company is engaged in the design and manufacture of discrete semiconductors, integrated circuits and electrical ceramic components for a wide range of applications in the wireless communications industry. The Company has adopted SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information." SFAS No. 131 establishes standards for the way public business enterprises report information about operating segments in annual financial statements and in interim reports to shareholders. The method for determining what information to report is based on the way that management organizes the segments within the Company for making operating decisions and assessing financial performance. In evaluating financial performance, management uses sales and operating profit as the measure of the segments' profit or loss. The Company is organized into three reportable segments as follows: Wireless Semiconductor Products: The Wireless Semiconductor segment designs and manufactures gallium arsenide integrated circuits and other discrete semiconductors to the global market for wireless telephone handsets and broadband data applications. Ceramic Products: The Ceramics segment designs and manufactures technical ceramic and magnetic products for wireless telephony infrastructure and other wireless markets. Application Specific Products: The Application Specific segment designs and manufactures a broad range of gallium arsenide and silicon devices and components to broadband data and satellite communications markets. 37

These consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Alpha Industries, Inc. and subsidiaries at April 2, 2000 and March 28, 1999, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended April 2, 2000 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
