BE AEROSPACE, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS SIX MONTHS ENDED AUGUST 30, 1997 AND AUGUST 31, 1996 Note 1. Basis of Presentation: The information set forth in these consolidated financial statements as of August 30, 1997 and for the three months and six months ended August 30, 1997 and August 31, 1996 is unaudited and may be subject to normal year-end adjustments. In the opinion of management, the unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position of B/E Aerospace, Inc. (the "Company" or "B/E") for the periods indicated. Results of operations for the interim periods ended August 30, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the full fiscal year. For further information, including information with regard to conditions in the airline industry and their possible impact on the Company, please refer to the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 22, 1997. The accompanying consolidated financial statements consolidate all of the Company's subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated. Certain amounts in the prior year's Consolidated Financial Statements have been reclassified to conform to the current fiscal year's presentation. Certain information normally included in footnote disclosures to the annual financial statements has been condensed or omitted in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Note 2. Earnings Per Share In February 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 128, Earnings Per Share which is effective for financial statements issued for periods ending after December 15, 1997. SFAS No. 128 requires the disclosure of basic and diluted earnings per share. Earnings per share, as reported and as would be reportable under SFAS No. 128 for the three months and six months ended August 30, 1997 and August 31, 1996 are as follows:
As Reported As Reported Three Months Ended Six Months Ended ----------------------- ----------------------- August 30, August 31, August 30, August 31, 1997 1996 1997 1996 Primary earnings per share $.35 $.11 $ .65 $ .19

Note 3. New Accounting Pronouncements COMPREHENSIVE INCOME - During 1997 the FASB issued SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income," which established standards for the reporting and displaying of comprehensive income. Comprehensive income is defined as all changes in a Company's net assets except changes resulting from transactions with shareholders. It differs from net income in that certain items currently recorded to equity would be a part of comprehensive income. Comprehensive income must be reported in a financial statement with the cumulative total presented as a component of equity. This statement will be adopted by the Company in its fiscal 1999 quarterly financial statements. SEGMENT INFORMATION - In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information," which will be effective for the Company beginning January 1, 1998. SFAS No. 131 redefines how operating segments are determined and requires disclosure of certain financial and descriptive information about a company's operating segments. The Company believes the segment information required to be disclosed under SFAS No. 131 will be more comprehensive than previously provided, including expanded disclosure of income statement and balance sheet items. The Company has not yet completed its analysis of which operating segments it will report on. Note 4. Long-Term Debt In May 1997, the Company amended its existing credit facilities with The Chase Manhattan Bank by increasing the aggregate principal amount that may be borrowed thereunder to $125,000 (the "Bank Credit Facility"). The Bank Credit Facility consists of a $25,000 Reducing Revolver and a $100,000 Revolving Facility. The amount of the Reducing Revolver will be reduced automatically by 12.5% on August 26, 2000 and on each of the seven succeeding quarterly anniversaries of such date. The Reducing Revolver is collateralized by all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of a wholly owned subsidiary and has a five-year maturity. The Revolving Facility is collateralized by all of the Company's accounts receivable, all of its inventory and substantially all of its other personal property and has a five-year maturity. The Bank Credit BE AEROSPACE, INC. Facility contains customary affirmative covenants, negative covenants and conditions of borrowing. At August 30, 1997 indebtedness under the Bank Credit Facility were letters of credit amounting to approximately $4,572. The Company has approximately $120,428 available for subsequent borrowings under its bank credit facility. Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and of Operations. (Dollars in thousands, except per share data) The following discussion and analysis addresses the results of the Company's operations for the three months ended August 30, 1997, as compared to the Company's results of operations for the three months ended August 31, 1996. The discussion and analysis then addresses the results of the Company's operations for the six months ended August 30, 1997 as compared to the Company's results of operations for the six months ended August 31, 1996. The discussion and analysis then addresses the liquidity and financial condition of the Company. THREE MONTHS ENDED AUGUST 30, 1997, AS COMPARED TO THE RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED AUGUST 31, 1996. Net sales for the fiscal 1998 three month period were $119,843, or 16% higher than sales of $103,026 for the comparable period in the prior year and reflecting a 25-percent increase in product sales offset by a $5,072 decline in service revenues. Gross profit was $44,149 (36.8% of sales) for the three months ended August 30, 1997 and was $9,710 or 28% greater than the comparable period in the prior year of $34,439 which represented 33.4% of sales. The increase in gross profit is the result of the higher sales volume and the mix of products and services sold. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $15,032 (12.6% of sales) for the three months ended August 30, 1997. This was $2,363 or 19% higher than the comparable period in the prior year of $12,669 (12.3% of sales) and is primarily due to a substantially higher level of sales and THREE MONTHS ENDED AUGUST 30, 1997, AS COMPARED TO THE RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED AUGUST 31, 1996. (Continued) quotation activity as well as a higher level of customer service, program management, product support and information technology activities. Research, development and engineering expense was $11,542 or 9.6% of sales for the three months ended August 30, 1997. For the comparable period in the prior year, research, development and engineering expense was $9,430 or 9.2% of sales. BE AEROSPACE, INC. Amortization expense for the quarter ended August 30, 1997 of $2,676 was $130 less than the amount recorded in the first quarter of fiscal 1997. The increase in gross profit, offset by somewhat higher operating expenses resulted in operating earnings of $14,899 (12.4% of sales), an increase of $5,365 or 56% over the comparable period in the prior year of $9,534 (9.3% of sales). Interest expense, net was $5,401 for the three months ended August 30, 1997, or $2,063 lower than interest expense of $7,464 for the comparable period in the prior year, and is due to the decrease in the Company's long-term debt. Earnings before income taxes of $9,498 for the three months ended August 30, 1997 were $7,428 or 359% greater than the prior year. Income tax expense for the quarter ended August 30, 1997 was $1,421 or 15% as compared to $207, or 10% in the prior year. Net earnings were $8,077 or $.35 per share for the three months ended August 30,1997, as compared to net earnings of $1,863 or $.11 per share for the comparable period in the prior year. BACKLOG On September 15, 1997, British Airways ("BA") notified the Company of its decision not to conduct a flight trial of B/E's MDDS interactive video system. BA has made a new proposal to work with B/E using a version of the MDDS system, which is installed on one of BA's Boeing 747 aircraft to give B/E an opportunity to prove the reliability of a multi-channel upgradeable system. As a result of BA's decision not to move forward at this time with the interactive program, the Company has debooked approximately $155,000 of backlog related to the BA MDDS program. After debooking the BA program, the Company's backlog stood at approximately $525,000 which represents a year-to-year increase of approximately $155,000 or 42%, versus the Company's backlog at the end of its fiscal 1997 second quarter, as similarly adjusted to exclude the amount then attributable to the BA MDDS backlog. New order bookings of $265,000 were $157,000 greater than new order bookings for the comparable period in the prior year. The robust order activity during the quarter was primarily associated with new seating and in-flight entertainment programs with American Airlines and Asiana Airlines, respectively. SIX MONTHS ENDED AUGUST 30, 1997 AS COMPARED TO THE RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED AUGUST 31, 1996. Net sales for the fiscal 1998 six month period were $233,689, or 17% higher than sales for the comparable period in the prior year of $200,328, and reflecting a 25-percent increase in product sales offset by a $9.9 million decline in service revenues. Gross profit was $85,212 (36.5% of sales) for the six months ended August 30, 1997 and was $18,226 or 27% greater than the comparable period in the prior year of $66,986 which represented 33.4% of sales. The increase in BE AEROSPACE, INC. SIX MONTHS ENDED AUGUST 30, 1997 AS COMPARED TO THE RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED AUGUST 31, 1996. (Continued) gross profit is the result of the higher sales volume and the mix of products and services sold. Selling, general and administrative expenses were $27,935 (12% of sales) for the six months ended August 30, 1997. This was $3,681 or 15% higher than the comparable period in the prior year of $24,254 (12.1% of sales) and is primarily due to a substantially higher level of sales and quotation activity as well as a higher level of customer service, program management, product support and information technology activities. Research, development and engineering expense was $22,550 or 9.6% of sales for the six months ended August 30, 1997. For the comparable period in the prior year, research, development and engineering expense was $19,157 or 9.6% of sales. Amortization expense for the six months ended August 30, 1997 of $5,529 was $15 less than the amount recorded in the first half of fiscal 1997. The increase in gross profit, offset by somewhat higher operating expenses resulted in operating earnings of $29,198 (12.5% of sales), an increase of $11,137 or 62% over the comparable period in the prior year of $18,061 (9% of sales). Interest expense, net was $11,531 for the six months ended August 30, 1997, or $2,868 lower than interest expense of $14,399 for the comparable period in the prior year, and is due to the decrease in the Company's long-term debt. Earnings before income taxes of $17,667 for the six months ended August 30, 1997 were $14,005 or 382% greater than in the prior year. Income tax expense for the six months ended August 30, 1997 was $2,647 or 15% as compared to $366, or 10% in the prior year. Net earnings were $15,020 or $.65 per share for the six months ended August 30, 1997, as compared to net earnings of $3,296 or $.19 per share for the comparable period in the prior year. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The Company's liquidity requirements consist primarily of working capital needs and scheduled payments of interest on its indebtedness. B/E's primary requirements for working capital have been directly related to increased accounts receivable and inventory levels as a result of growth in revenues. B/E's working capital was $144,686 as of August 30, 1997, compared to $122,174 as of February 22, 1997. In May 1997, the Company amended its existing credit facilities with The Chase Manhattan Bank by increasing the aggregate principal amount that may be borrowed thereunder to $125,000 (the "Bank Credit Facility"). The Bank Credit Facility consists of a $25,000 Reducing Revolver and a $100,000 Revolving Facility. The amount of the Reducing Revolver will be reduced automatically BE AEROSPACE, INC. by 12.5% on August 26, 2000 and on each of the seven succeeding quarterly anniversaries of such date. The Reducing Revolver is collateralized by all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of a wholly owned subsidiary and has a five-year maturity. The Revolving Facility is collateralized by all of the Company's accounts receivable, all of its inventory and substantially all of its other personal property and has a five-year maturity. The Bank Credit Facility contains customary affirmative covenants, negative covenants and conditions of borrowing. At August 30, 1997 indebtedness under the Bank Credit Facility were letters of credit amounting to approximately $4,572. The Company has approximately $120,428 available for subsequent borrowings under its bank credit facility. The Company's 9 3/4 Senior Notes and 9 7/8 Senior Subordinated Notes are due March 1, 2003 and February 1, 2006, respectively. At August 30, 1997, the Company's cash and cash equivalents were $56,876 as compared to $44,149 at February 22, 1997. Cash provided from operating activities during the six months ended August 30, 1997 was $20,526 and cash used in operating activities in the first half of fiscal 1997 was $(4,022). The primary source of cash during the six months ended August 30, 1997 was net earnings of $15,020, non-cash charges for depreciation and amortization of $12,465 and increases in accounts payable of $2,918 offset by a use of cash of $5,720 related to increases in receivables and inventories and $4,617 related to decreases in other assets and liabilities. The Company's capital expenditures were $11,656, and $7,065 during the six months ended August 30, 1997, and August 31, 1996, respectively. The Company anticipates ongoing capital expenditures of approximately $22 million per year for the next several years. The Company believes that cash flow from operations and availability under the Bank Credit Facility will provide adequate funds for its working capital needs, planned capital expenditures and debt service obligations through the term of the Bank Credit Facility. The Company believes that it will be able to refinance the Bank Credit Facility prior to its termination, although there can be no assurance that it will be able to do so. The Company's ability to fund its operations and make planned capital expenditures, to make scheduled payments and to refinance its indebtedness depends on its future operating performance and cash flow, which, in turn, are subject to prevailing economic conditions and to financial, business and other factors, some of which are beyond its control. This report includes forward-looking statements which involve risks and uncertainties. The Company's actual experience may differ materially from that discussed above. Factors that might cause such a difference include, but are not limited to, those discussed in "Risk Factors" in the Company's Registration Statement on Form S-3 dated December 12, 1996, the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended February 22, 1997, as well as future events that have the effect of reducing the Company's available cash balances, such as unexpected operating losses or delays in the integration of the Company's seating business or the delivery of the MDDS interactive video system or capital expenditures or cash expenditures related to possible future acquisitions.
