                       KVH INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
                             March 31, 1996 and 1995
                                   (Unaudited)

(1.) The accompanying consolidated financial statements of KVH Industries,  Inc.
and  subsidiary  (the  "Company") for the periods ended March 31, 1996 and March
31, 1995 have been prepared in accordance  with  generally  accepted  accounting
principles and with the  instructions  to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation
S-X. These  financial  statements  have not been audited by  independent  public
accountants,  but include all adjustments  (consisting of only normal  recurring
adjustments)  which are,  in the  opinion of  management,  necessary  for a fair
presentation  of the financial  condition,  results of operations and cash flows
for such periods.

The results of operations  for the interim  periods shown in this report are not
necessarily  indicative  of results  for any future  interim  periods or for the
entire  year.  The  preparation  of  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 at
the date of the  financial  statements  and the reported  amount of revenues and
expenses  during the reporting  period.  Actual  results could differ from those
estimates.   These  consolidated   financial   statements  do  not  include  all
disclosures  associated with annual financial  statements and accordingly should
be read in  conjunction  with the  consolidated  financial  statements and notes
thereto included in the Company's  Registration Statement on Form S-1 filed with
the Securities and Exchange  Commission (file number  333-01258) a copy of which
is available from the Company.

(2.) On March 28, 1996,  the  Company's  registration  statement  for an initial
public  offering  of common  stock  was  declared  effective.  An  aggregate  of
1,800,000  shares of common  stock were  issued by the  Company on April 5, 1996
(after the close of the  period  covered by these  financial  statements)  at an
initial public offering price of $6.50 per share. The following table sets forth
(i) the actual  cash and  stockholders'  equity of the Company at March 31, 1996
and (ii) the pro forma as adjusted cash and  stockholders'  equity giving effect
to the stock  offering and receipt of the estimated  net proceeds  therefrom and
conversion  to common  stock at the closing of the  offering of all  outstanding
shares of the Company's preferred stock.

                                                       At March 31, 1996

Item 1.  Financial Statements.
                       KVH INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
                   Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
                             March 31, 1996 and 1995
                                   (Unaudited)


(4.) On March 18, 1996 the Company  entered into a purchase and sales  agreement
to acquire a 75,000  square foot  manufacturing  and office  facility.  Property
plant and equipment  includes a real estate deposit in the amount of $200,000 to
secure the  purchase  of that  facility.  The  estimated  cost of the  completed
facility is approximately $3,000,000.

(5.) The  Company  had  available  net  operating  loss  carry-forwards  through
December 31, 1995 for both tax return and financial reporting purposes.  In 1995
the full benefit of the net operating loss carry-forward  deduction was realized
for financial reporting purposes,  based upon the Company's  expectation that it
will have  future  taxable  income in 1996 and  beyond in order to  realize  the
benefit of these future tax deductions. In 1996 net operating loss carry-forward
will be available for tax return purposes only.

 Income tax provisions for the three-month periods ended March 31, 1996 and 1995
have been  calculated  at estimated  annual  effective tax rates of 40% and 0.0%
respectively.  The  effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 1996
and 1995 differ from the federal  statutory  rate of 34%  primarily due to state
taxes net of federal tax  benefit  and the  application  of net  operating  loss
carryforwards  against 1995 taxable  income.  The Company  believes that the net
deferred  tax assets are more likely than not to be realized  because of current
income projections.








Item 2. Management's  Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
     of Operations.

This  report may  contain  forward-looking  statements  which  involve  risks or
uncertainties.  The  Company's  actual  results may differ  materially  from the
results discussed in the forward-looking  statements.  Factors which might cause
such  differences  include,  but are not limited to, those discussed under "Risk
Factors"  in  the  Company's  Registration  Statement  on  Form  S-1,  File  No.
333-01258,  declared effective March 28, 1996, a copy of which is available from
the Company.

NET INCOME AND  EARNINGS  PER SHARE - Net income and  earnings per share for the
three months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995 were  $187,568 or $0.03 per share and
$351,084 or $0.06 per share respectively. Net income for the first quarter ended
March 31, 1995 was positively  affected by a contract  settlement  relating to a
customer-funded  development  project  and by the absence of any  provision  for
income taxes, due to the availability of loss carryforwards that have since been
fully  utilized.  Excluding the impact of the contract  settlement  and tax-loss
carry-forward,  net income for the quarter  ended March 31, 1995 would have been
$57,000 or $0.01 per share.

NET SALES - Net sales grew to  $4,780,659  or a 73% increase  when compared with
first quarter 1995 revenues of  $2,767,878.  Over 80% of the increase in product
shipments  resulted  from new  products  such as:  TracVision  (a marine  mobile
satellite  direct  television  antenna  system),  ASAP (an  actively  stabilized
antenna  pedestal  for  use in  marine  mobile  voice  and  data  communications
applications)  and TacNav (a land mobile  navigation  system for use on military
armored  vehicles).  The  largest  segment of sales  growth  was  communications
products that  accounted  for increased  revenues of $1,074,805 or 629% over the
first quarter of 1995.  The first  quarter 1996  communications  revenue  growth
resulted from shipments to: Mitsubishi Electronics  Corporation and Westinghouse
Corporation. Military land navigation product revenues grew to $2,265,406, a 57%
increase when compared with first quarter 1995 military land navigation revenues
of  $1,446,276.  The growth in military  land  navigation  revenues in the first
quarter of 1996  resulted  form  shipments  to: the United  States Army  Bradley
Fighting Vehicle program, the Canadian RECCE program and the Saudi Arabian Light
Armored Vehicle program.  Marine navigation  products increased to $1,269,448 or
10% in the first  quarter of 1996 when compared with first quarter 1995 revenues
of $1,150,603.  Marine  navigation  revenue  growth was less than expected,  due
primarily to the late award of European Union ("EU") product certifications.  In
the  absence of EU product  certifications  the  Company  was forced to withhold
European  shipments  for six  weeks  resulting  in the loss of  European  marine
navigation  revenues.  The Company's  products were EU certified mid-way through
the first quarter and shipments have resumed at anticipated volumes.

GROSS PROFIT - Gross profit  increased  $857,778 or 70% in the first  quarter of
1996 when compared with the first quarter of 1995 due to the Company's  increase
in net sales. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales was 44% in both 1996 and
1995.

OPERATING  EXPENSES - Research and development  expense increased by $434,136 or
247% in the  first  quarter  when  compared  with  the  first  quarter  of 1995,
primarily as a result of a shift in the Company's  research and activities  from
customer-funded  research and  development  programs  (that are accounted for as
cost of sales) toward company-funded research and development programs (that are
accounted for as research and development expense). Customer-funded research and
development  costs of sales  decreased to $205,670 in the first  quarter of 1996
compared  with  $560,292  in  the   corresponding   period  of  1995.   Combined
expenditures of customer-funded  and company-funded  research and development in
the first  quarter of 1996  increased by $79,513 or 11% when  compared  with the
first quarter of 1995. Sales and marketing expense increased  $351,985 or 70% in
the first quarter of 1996 when  compared with the first quarter of 1995,  due to
increases in variable  selling  support costs such as sales  commissions,  media
expense and travel expense,  attributed to increased sales volumes.  General and
administrative expense increased by $115,905 or 58% in the first quarter of 1996
when compared with the first quarter of 1995, primarily as a result of new hires
to support the company's growth.



OTHER DEDUCTIONS  (INCOME) - Other  deductions,  (income) is made up of interest
expense net,  other  expense,  other income,  and foreign  currency  translation
gains.  The year to year  change in other  deductions  resulted  primarily  from
increased  interest income,  which off-set interest expense charges in the first
quarter of 1996.

INCOME TAXES - Income tax expense  increased by $125,042 in the first quarter of
1996 when  compared  with the first  quarter of 1995 in which no  provision  for
taxes was recorded.  The Company had available net operating loss carry-forwards
through December 31, 1995 for both tax return and financial  reporting purposes.
In 1995 the full benefit of the net operating loss  carry-forward  deduction was
realized for financial reporting purposes,  based upon the Company's expectation
that it will have future  taxable  income in 1996 and beyond in order to realize
the  benefit  of  these  future  tax  deductions.  In 1996  net  operating  loss
carry-forwards will be available for tax return purposes only.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL  RESOURCES - Working capital  decreased by $254,948 in the
first quarter of 1996 due to a build up of long-lead  inventory items to support
military  orders that are  scheduled  for  shipment  later in 1996 and  deferred
registration  costs associated with the Company's initial public offering.  Cash
and cash  equivalents  were $590,488 and $895,677 on March 31, 1996 and December
31, 1995 respectively.

On March 28, 1996,  the Company's  registration  statement for an initial public
offering of common  stock was  declared  effective.  An  aggregate  of 1,800,000
shares of common  stock were  issued by the  Company on April 5, 1996 (after the
close of the period covered by these financial  statements) at an initial public
offering price of $6.50 per share that resulted in  approximately  $10.3 million
dollars  in  net  proceeds.  The  Company  believes  that  cash  generated  from
operations,  amounts available under its credit facility and the net proceeds of
the initial public offering will be sufficient to fund its necessary  operations
and planned capital expenditures for at least the next twelve months.

CAPITAL  EXPENDITURES  - Fixed assets  increased  approximately  $482,620 in the
first quarter of 1996 as compared with December 31, 1995.  The increase in fixed
assets reflects: tooling for communications products and a deposit to purchase a
manufacturing  and office facility.  The Company believes that the facility will
cost approximately $3,000,000 prior to occupancy in late 1996.

NEW  ACCOUNTING  STANDARDS  -  Effective  January  1, 1996 the  Company  adopted
Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board  Statements No. 121  "Accounting for the
Impairment of Long Lived Assets and for Long Lived Assets to be Disposed of" and
No. 123 "Accounting for Stock-Based  Compensation"  ("FAS 123"). The adoption of
these  standards  had no impact on the  financial  position  or the  results  of
operations  of the Company for the period ended March 31,  1996.  Under FAS 123,
the Company has elected not to adopt the new accounting method and will continue
to account for its  stock-based  compensation  under the existing  provisions of
Accounting  Principles  Board  Opinion No. 25,  "Accounting  for Stock Issued to
Employees".  Accordingly,  the Company will provide pro-forma disclosures of net
income and earnings per share for the year ended December 31, 1996, assuming FAS
123 had been adopted.
