In fiscal 2000, Ha rris set a bold new co u rse that po s i ti ons this lon g - s t a n d i n g

company as a major player in the new era of communications, driven by

cellular networks, the Internet, and other advanced digital services. The

plan was to reshape Harris from a diversified manufacturer to a focused

provi der of com mu n i c a ti ons equ i pm ent for new and trad i ti onal ch a n n el s

of communications around the world. The makeover was accomplished

in full and on time during fiscal 2000.

The new Harris has emerged in fiscal 2001 as a leading provider of

wi reless infra s tru ctu re soluti on s , d i gital TV and radio sys tem s , m a n a gem en t

and test equ i pm ent for soph i s ti c a ted com mu n i c a ti ons net work s , and sec u re

d i gital com mu n i c a ti ons sys tems for defen s e . The out l ook for your com p a ny

is for exc i ting business opportu n i ties and improved financial perform a n ce .

Disposition of Non-Strategic Businesses: In clu ded in the repo s i-

ti oning was the dispo s i ti on of t h ree non - s tra tegic bu s i n e s s e s . In

the first half of the ye a r, Ha rri s’ form er sem i con du ctor bu s i n e s s

was sold, and the Lanier of f i ce produ cts business was spun-of f

to shareh o l ders as a tax-free divi den d . At the end of the ye a r, we

com p l eted the sale of an unprof i t a bl e , n on - s tra tegic tel eph on e

s wi tching sys tems bu s i n e s s . The repo s i ti oning also inclu ded many

or ga n i z a ti onal ch a n ges to help the com p a ny ef f i c i en t ly em brace

n ew markets and to redu ce ad m i n i s tra tive ex pen s e s . Those ch a n ge s

i n clu de the establ i s h m ent of an intern a ti onal sales or ga n i z a ti on wi t h

four Regi onal Sales Opera ti ons around the gl obe ; the implem en t a ti on

of com m on inform a ti on sys tem s ; and the cen tra l i z a ti on of f i n a n ce ,

R & D, human re s o u rce s ,l ega l , and other ad m i n i s tra tive servi ce s .

A Strong Balance Sheet: The proceeds from the disposition of

businesses, combined with successful investments, have provided

your company with a solid balance sheet and an unprecedented

position of strength in cash and marketable securities. Cash and

marketable securities were approximately $800 million at the end

of the year, versus approximately $100 million at the end of fiscal

1999. On the liability side of the balance sheet, the ratio of total-

debt-to-total-capital was 26.3 percent in fiscal 2000 versus 34.5

percent in the previous year. The combination of a strong cash

position and the ability to access additional lines of credit gives

Harris ample resources to expand our presence in high-growth

communications markets through internal product developments

and strategic acquisitions.

Acquisition of Wa v t ra c e, Inc.: In the first quarter of fiscal 2001,

Ha rris acqu i red Wav trace , In c . , a pion eer and leading devel oper of

broadband wireless access systems. Harris, which had previously

acquired 20 percent of Wavtrace, purchased the remainder of the

company for approximately $134 million. This move helps Harris

to secure a leadership position in the market for broadband wire-

less access. Wavtrace has developed key technology for delivering

Internet and other high-speed data services over wireless millime-

ter-wave transmissions to provide “last mile” access to business

end-users. The technology, called TDD (time division duplexing),

enables the system to transport high-speed bursts of data in a

spectrum-efficient manner. Harris’ high-bandwidth products will

deliver data, voice,and video communications to large and small

office buildings,and eventually to homes.

P u rchase of TRT Lucent Te c h n o l o g i e s ’M i c rowa ve Business: At the end of the

fiscal year, we acquired Lucent Technologies’

point-to-point microwave radio business for

approximately $30 million. The transaction

includes a five-year preferred supplier agreement

to provide the worldwide point-to-point microwave needs

of Lucent’s wireless divisions. The business, which is located near

Paris, provides Harris with a broader presence in Europe, Africa,

and the Middle East. The acquisition and related agreements are

expected to add over $100 million in annual sales volume.

B roadcast Acquisitions: Harris acquired two technology-rich

companies during the year to support the expansion of our

i n du s try - l e ading Broadcast Com mu n i c a ti ons bu s i n e s s . In Ja nu a ry

2 0 0 0 , Ha rris acqu i red Lo uth Autom a ti on for approx i m a tely $87

million. Louth is a provider of broadcast automation solutions

that help owners manage multiple stations,signals, and product

of feri n gs ,i n cluding the del ivery of In tern et servi ce s . The acqu i s i ti on

also positions Harris to expand from over-the-air broadcasting

into cable and satellite delivered programming.

In September 1999, we acquired Pacific Research and

Engineering Corporation for $6 million. PR&E is a recognized

industry leader in the design, development,and integration of

analog and digital radio studio products.

C o m m e rcial Communications Segment Highlights: Microwave

Communications: Harris’ Microwave Communications business

is the number one independent provider of microwave radio

products in the world. This business experienced strong growth

in the second half of fiscal 2000 as worl dwi de markets rebo u n ded ,

particularly in China,Latin America, and North

America. Orders in the second half rose almost

40 percent, as the business was driven by the

expansion of cellular, PCS,and private net-

works around the world. Harris has the

broadest product line in the industry,

and recent acquisitions have expanded its

distribution channels and technology base.

Broadcast Communications: Harris is the number

one provi der of tel evi s i on and radio tra n s m i s s i on and

rel a ted equ i pm ent in the worl d . The business is lead i n g

the indu s try in the convers i on to digital tel evi s i on with

a n approximate 60 percent share of the DTV transmitters

delivered. The pace of conversion in fiscal 2000 was disap-

pointing, as a continuing debate over the U.S. standards for

digital television delayed the projected DTV buildout. However,

the ex pect a ti ons for market opportu n i ties remain unch a n ged , a n d

we anticipate that the roll-out will accelerate once the standard

i s sues are re s o lved . Ha rris also is at the foref ront of the convers i on

to digital radio with a potential market that includes 12,000 U.S.

radio stations.

Netwo rk Su ppo rt: Ha rris provi des produ cts and sys tems to hel p

telecom service providers manage their networks more effectively.

Ha rri s’ h i gh - growth line test sys tems bu s i n e s s , wh i ch is being driven

primarily by the roll-out of DSL (digital subscriber line) services,

gives service providers the ability to rapidly deploy and maintain

DSL services. Harris continues to be the leading supplier of test

sets and tools for repair and testing of telephone lines,and also

provides solutions to manage continually evolving, integrated,

communications networks. The company’s NetBoss™ network

m a n a gem ent soluti on simplifies the daily ch a ll en ges of keeping

the network up and running efficiently.

Our Network Support business is serving a very

robust market as service providers continue to add

features and new networks in the U.S. and the rest of

the world.Orders in this business grew 35 percent

last year and revenues increased 24 percent. We

believe this type of growth is sustainable over

the next several years.

RF Communications: Harris is a world leader in secure,

long-range HF, VHF, and UHF radios used for wireless commu-

nications, primarily by government and defense forces around the

world. The radios provide voice, data,and limited video capabili-

ties for both point-to-point and network applications. Harris pro-

vides global peacekeeping forces with secure, reliable communi-

cations for thousands of miles. These “tactical” radios operate

independent of infrastructure, a key attribute in times of conflict

and instability. In fiscal 2000, the business produced excellent

results, with revenues increasing 18 percent.

G overnment Communications Segment Highlights: The technol-

ogy developed and applied in our Government Communications

Systems business underpins development in our commercial

businesses. This business is a technology powerhouse for Harris

with 3,200 engineers and scientists working on sophisticated

defense communications platforms that also have relevance to

the com m ercial marketp l ace . The govern m ent market has tu rn ed

po s i tive as bu d geted spending by the Dep a rtm ent of Defense for

proc u rem ent and for R&D, te s t , and en gi n eering is now tren d i n g

up, particularly in communications, where Harris excels. The

business showed improvem ent in revenue and opera ting incom e

for fiscal 2000, with a significant uptu rn in orders and sales in the

fourth quarter.

Harris People: In Ja nu a ry 2000, Sa mu el D. Wyman joi n ed Ha rris as

m i c row ave sys tem s . Also in Ja nu a ry, D a n i el R. Pe a rs on was

Robert Cizik retired from the Harris Board

of Directors in October 1999. We are grateful

for his 11 years of dedicated service to the Ha rri s

Boa rd . In Decem ber 1999, S teph en P. Kaufman,

chairman of Arrow Electronic, Inc., was el ected

to the Boa rd ; and in Febru a ry 2000, Gregory T.

Swienton, president and COO of Ryder System,

Inc., was elected to the Board. The Ha rris Boa rd

n ow consists of ten mem bers , nine of which are

outside directors.

We were saddened during the year by the death of Richard

B. Tullis, chairman emeritus of Harris. Mr. Tullis served Harris

for almost 30 ye a rs and was CEO from 1968 to 1978. He led the

early stages of Harris’ transition from a printing equipment com-

pany to a successful multi-billion-dollar, high-technology enter-

prise. We will miss his wise counsel.

Fiscal 2000 Results: For fiscal 2000, Harris reported pro forma

revenues from con ti nuing opera ti ons of $1.734 bi ll i on versus $1.617

bi ll i on for fiscal 1999. Pro forma net income from con ti nuing opera-

ti on s for fiscal 2000 was $75.3 mill i on , com p a red to $68.7 mill i on

in the previous year. Pro forma results for fiscal 2000 exclude

three items: a gain on the sale of Intersil Holding Corporation

s tock du ring its IPO, a ch a r ge for in-process re s e a rch and devel op-

ment related to an acquisition,and revenue and costs related to

the exit of the telephone switch business.

Outlook: The outlook for fiscal 2001 is for strong growth in sales

and earnings, building on the momentum established during the

past year. The major repositioning actions have been completed,

yi elding redu cti ons in overh e ad costs and mu ch ti gh ter integra ti on

of the com p a ny. Profit margi n s , wh i ch are low by historical standard s

as we end the repositioning period, are expected to continue

i m provi n g, qu a rter by qu a rter, du ring fiscal 2001. We also ex pect

to accomplish ad d i ti onal acqu i s i ti ons to furt h er stren g t h en Ha rri s’

position in communications markets.

Sincerely,

The following discussion and analysis provides informationthat management believes is useful in understanding Harris’operating results,cash flows,and financial condition. The dis-cussion is based on Harris’ continuing operations and shouldbe read in conjunction with, and is qualified in its entirety byreferen ce to, the Con s o l i d a ted Financial Statem ents and related notes appearing elsewhere in this report. Except forthe historical information contained here, the discussions inthis doc u m ent contain forw a rd - l ooking statem ents thatinvolve risks and uncertainties. Harris’ actual results coulddiffer materially from those discussed here. Factors that couldcause or contribute to such differences include, but are notl i m i ted to, those discussed under “ Forw a rd - Loo k i n gStatements” below.

Results of Opera t i o n sOn November 5, 1999, Harris completed the spin-off of itsLanier Worldwide, Inc. subsidiary as an independent,publiclyowned company. Additionally, on August 13, 1999, Harriscompleted the sale of substantially all of its semiconductorbusiness. As a result of these actions,the Lanier and semicon-ductor businesses are pre s en ted as discon ti nu ed opera ti ons fora ll peri ods pre s en ted . Continuing operations are reportedunder two segments: the Government Communications seg-ment, which is comprised of the operations of the formerElectronic Systems Sector, and the Commercial Communi-cations segment, which is comprised of the operations of theformer Communications Sector. The following discussion ison a continuing operations basis.

RestructuringIn fiscal 2000, Harris recorded a $41 million charge ($26.7million after income tax) for the restructuring of its opera-tions. Restructuring actions included a reduction in work-force of approximately 161 employees and provisions for thewrite-down of intangible assets, equipment, and other assetsassociated with the exit from Harris’ telephone switching andalarm management product lines.

In the third quarter of fiscal 2000, 161 switching businessemployees were notified that their employment would be ter-minated and what their specific severance benefit would be.These employees worked in the marketing, sales,manufactur-ing, and administ rative areas and were primarily located inMarin County, California. As of June 30, 2000, 62 employeeshad been terminated with the balance to be terminated bySeptember 30, 2000.

In June 2000, Ha rris sold the core swi tch business toTeltronics, Inc. Harris also sold the alarm management busi-ness to Mediation Technology Corporation in August 2000.Harris also intends to sell other porti ons of this produ ct line,i n cluding the intern a ti onal activi ti e s , du ring fiscal 2001. G a i n sor losses from the sale of these operations are included orwill be included in restructuring expenses in the period thesale occurs. Estimated discounted cash flows were used indetermining the fair value of assets and liabilities in recordingthe restructuring charge.

Cash outlays for restructuring actions will be primarily forseverance benefits. Harris expects to pay these benefits ratablyover the first two quarters of fiscal 2001 from currently avail-able cash sources. Sales from these product lines were $73.5million in 2000,$126.6 million in 1999,and $140.4 million in1998. Operating losses from these product lines were $18.9million in 2000, $3.6 million in 1999, and $2.9 millionin 1998.

In fiscal 1999, Harris recorded a $5.1 million charge ($3.3million after income tax) for severance costs associated withthe restructuring of Harris. In connection with this restruc-turing, Harris identified employee reductions of 606, all ofwhich occurred during fiscal 2000.

Harris does not anticipate any further restructuring chargeswith respect to the items noted above in fiscal 2001 other thangains or losses that may result from the sale of the exitedproduct lines or restructuring noted above. For further infor-mation, see the “Restructuring” footnote in the Notes toFinancial Statements.

Purchased In-Process Research and DevelopmentIn January 2000, Harris purchased Louth Automation,a lead-ing supplier of advanced automation systems for radio andtelevision broadcasters. Harris paid cash in the net amount ofapproximately $87 million. The final determination of thepurchase price is subject to adjustment.

In connection with the acquisition, Harris allocated $10.7million of the purchase price to in-process research anddevel opm ent proj ect s . This all oc a ti on repre s ents the esti m a tedfair va lue based on ri s k - ad ju s ted cash flows rel a ted to thei n com p l ete produ ct s . At the date of acqu i s i ti on , the devel op-m ent of these proj ects had not yet re ach ed tech n o l ogical fe a s i-bi l i ty and the in-process re s e a rch and devel opm ent had noa l tern a tive futu re uses. Accord i n gly, these costs were ex pen s ed asa on e - time ch a r ge to earn i n gs in the third qu a rter of fiscal 2000.

The fair va lues assign ed to each of the sign i f i-cant proj ects and the stage of com p l eti on are reported bel ow:

Fair Value Stage ofProduct (In millions) Completion

Version 9.5 ofADC Software $ 6.8 80%

Media Browser 1.7 70%News 1.0 70% All others 1.2 50% to 90%

Total $10.7

A discussion of the three most significant projects follows:

Version 9.5 of the Automated Device Controller (“ADC”) Software:

• Base ADC product is an all-purpose program/commercialautomation system with the ability to integrate a widevariety of broadcast devices.

• Version 9.5 provides a link between traffic, engineering, andon-air broadcasting operations.

• The primary functions under development include:

• The implem en t a ti on of Net work Devi ce Con tro lProtocall and control of hardware and video serversacross the network;

• The abi l i ty to use TCP/IP and other rem o te configurations;

• Creation of a driver that will function with proprietarySony Protocall;

• Other specific functionality such as Spencer Still Storeand DUET; and

• Creation of video disk enhancements.

• The development of Version 9.5 was initiated in earlycalendar 1998 (conceptualization of features, etc.).

• The amount of completion is estimated at 80% (consideringtime-based, cost-based, and milestone-based completionmeasures).

• Version 9.5 incorporates significant leverage on existingtechnology from ADC version 9.4. The degree of leveragewas estimated to be 50%.

Media Browser:

• Media Browser will provide scaleable infrastructure that willexpedite the simultaneous browsing of broadcast mediaclips from servers at different loc a ti on s . This new functi on a l i tywi ll equip the con trol room with new traffic managem ent ands ch eduling capabi l i ti e s .

• The development of Media Browser was initiated in July1998 (conceptualization of features, etc.).

• The amount of completion is estimated at 70% (consideringtime-based, cost-based, and milestone-based completionmeasures).

• Media Browser’s leverage on existing technology base is estimated at 25%.

News:

• News will provide new functionality related to three majora reas of n ews broadcast opera ti on s : n ews tra n s m i s s i on ,material acquisition, and material management.

• The development of News was initiated in July 1999.

• The amount of completion is estimated at 70% (consideringtime-based, cost-based, and milestone-based completionmeasures).

• News has minimal levera ge on ex i s ting tech n o l ogy base from ADC version 9.4. The degree of leverage was estimated at 10%. There is no previous version of the Newsproduct.

The value assigned to purchased in-process research anddevelopment was determined by estimating the costs todevelop the purchased in-process research and developmentinto commercially viable products and discounting the netcash flows to their present value using a discount rate of 28percent.

Remaining development efforts for these in-process researchand development projects include various phases of design,development, and testing . The anticipated completion datesfor the in-process research and development projects willoccur within the next twelve months, after which Harrisexpects to begin generating economic benefits from the technologies over a seven-year life cycle. Expenditures tocomplete these projects are expected to total $0.9 million.

These estimates are subject to change, given the uncertaintiesof the development process, and no assurance can be giventhat deviations from these estimates will not occur. We expectto continue these development efforts and believe we have areasonable chance of successfully completing the research a n ddevel opm ent progra m s . However, t h ere is a risk assoc i a tedwith the completion of the projects and there is no assurancethat any wi ll attain ei t h er tech n o l ogical or com m ercial success.

G overn m ent Com mu n i c a ti ons Segm en t : G overn m en tCom mu n i c a ti on s segment revenue in fiscal 2000 increased 0.3percent from the prior year, and operating income increased11.5 percent. These results were impacted by an $18.0 millionwrite-off in fiscal 1999 for the settlement of claims and unre-covera ble con tract devel opm ent costs on two con tract s .Excluding this write-off, revenues declined 1.0 percent andoperating income declined 17.1 percent from fiscal 1999.Despite improved operating margins on more recent contractaw a rds in 2000, opera ting income has been impacted by margi n

pressure from poorer-performing older contracts.

Com m ercial Com mu n i c a ti ons Segm en t : Com m erc i a lCom mu n i c a ti on s segment revenue in fiscal 2000 increased6.6 percent over 1999. Excluding sales from the recen t ly ex i ted tel eph one swi tching produ ct line, the Com m erc i a lCom mu n i c a ti on s s egm en t’s sales incre a s ed from $803.7 mill i onto $918.0 million, or 14.2 percent. This segment experienceddo u bl e - d i git growth in all four of the segm en t’s major continuing commercial product lines: microwave, networksu pport , broadc a s t , and tactical rad i o. These revenue incre a s e swere partially offset by a 41.9 percent decrease in revenuefrom the recently exited telephone switching and alarmmanagement product lines.

The segment’s operating loss for 2000 was impacted by the$41.0 million restructuring charge and the $10.7 millionpurchased in-process research and development write-offmentioned previously, as well as a $12.0 million write-downof inventory related to the telephone switching and alarmmanagement product lines that were exited. These productlines also incurred an additional $18.9 million in operatinglosses in 2000 compared to a loss of $3.6 million in 1999. Thesegment’s fiscal 2000 operating loss also includes transitioncosts of $16.5 million associated with exiting these productlines. Such costs included relocation of the network supportbusiness unit ’s headquarters from Marin County, Californiato Melbourne, Florida; collection losses on accounts receiv-able; and excess manufacturing costs related to idle capacityin Marin County. Harris ceased all marketing, sales, andresearch and development for the telephone switching andalarm m a n a gem ent produ ct lines as of Febru a ry 2000. Th eopera ting losses thro u gh Febru a ry 2000 inclu ded a sign i f i c a n tamount of m a rketing and sales ex pen s e s , as well as re s e a rchand devel opm ent costs in the tel eph one swi tching produ ctl i n e .

Excluding the items mentioned above in both the current andpri or ye a r, as well as a $20.6 mill i on special ch a r ge for a paten tlitigation settlement in the prior year, the CommercialCom mu n i c a ti on s segment’s operating income increased from$58.3 mill i on in 1999 to $65.8 mill i on in 2000, or 12.9 percen t .The increase in operating income was driven mainly by the14.2 percent sales growth in the Com m ercial Com mu n i c a ti on ss egm en t’s con ti nuing com m ercial produ ct lines.

Orders and revenue increased for microwave radios duringthe year as markets continued to rebound in North America,Latin America,and China. In June 2000,Harris completed the

acquisition of the point-to-point microwave business of TRTLucent Technologies. The acquisition provides for a five-yearpreferred supplier agreement to serve the worldwide point-to-point microwave needs of Lucent’s wireless divisions.

In the first quarter of fiscal 2001, Harris also entered intoagreements to acquire Wavtrace, Inc.,a privately-held,leadingdevel oper of broadband wi reless access sys tem s . The acqu i s i-ti on , wh en com p l eted , is ex pected to su pport Ha rri s’ i n i ti a tiveto lead the world in the del ivery of poi n t - to - point and poi n t - to -mu l ti point broadband wi reless access soluti ons for microw aveand mill i m eter wave frequencies.

The broadcast communications business reported a strongincrease in revenues due primarily to its new studio automa-tion business, which was bolstered by the purchase of LouthAutomation, the leading supplier of advanced automationsystems for digital television, over-the-air broadcast, andcable and industrial applications. The acquisition of LouthAutomation brings competencies in automation and controlto com p l em ent Ha rri s’ l e adership po s i ti on in broadc a s ttransmission and digital encoding. This acquisition furtherbroadens Harris’ global position in the broadcast markets.

The tactical radio produ ct line ex peri en ced a significant incre a s ein sales as it continues to benefit from the market’s enthusi-asm for its high data ra te , mu l ti b a n d ,s ec u re rad i o s , wh i ch wereintroduced in fiscal 2000 to meet the growing bandwidthrequ i rem ent as digital tech n o l ogy is em braced by the military.

O rders and revenues also incre a s ed su b s t a n ti a lly for the net worksu pport bu s i n e s s . This increase was aided by incre a s eddemand for the telecom line test systems used by competitivelocal exchange carriers (CLECs) to deploy digital subscriberlines (DSLs) for applications such as high-speed Internetservice and other broadband communication services forvoice, data, and video.

Excluding the impact of this exited product line, gross marginas a percent of revenue was 26.2 percent in 2000 compared to25.8 percent in 1999. The increase is due to improved gro s sm a r gins in Ha rri s’ Com m ercial Com mu n i c a ti ons segm en t’sbroadc a s t , n et work su pport , and microw ave radio produ ctl i n e s .

E n gi n eeri n g , Selling and Ad m i n i s tra tive Expen s e s :Engineering, selling, and administrative expenses as a percentof revenue were 22.4 percent in fiscal 2000 versus 21.8 percentin 1999. Fiscal 2000 operating expenses were impacted by$16.5 million of transition costs associated with exiting thetelephone switching product line. Such costs include reloca-ti on of the net work su pport business unit’s head qu a rters fromMa rin Co u n ty, Ca l i fornia to Mel bo u rn e , F l ori d a ; co ll ecti onlosses on accounts receiva bl e ; and excess manu f actu ring co s t srel a ted to idle capac i ty in Ma rin Co u n ty. The opera ti n gex penses were also impacted by ad m i n i s tra tive and gen era l ,m a rketing and sales, and re s e a rch and devel opm en t expensesin the telephone switching product line in the first half of thefiscal year.

Excluding the impact of the exited product line, operatingexpenses as a percent of revenue were 20.6 percent in 2000versus 20.3 percent in 1999. The increase was primarily due toplanned increases in selling and engineering, research anddevelopment expenses, as well as increased headquartersex pen s e s . The incre a s ed head qu a rters ex penses were pri m a ri lyattributable to unusually low executive compensation in fiscal1999 and costs assoc i a ted with the cen tra l i z a ti on of com p a ny -wide shared services in fiscal 2000.

Goodwill Amortization: Goodwill amortization increasedfrom $4.3 million in fiscal 1999 to $10.5 million in fiscal 2000.The increase was due to acquisitions made in Har ris’ broad-cast systems product line during fiscal 2000, primarily theacquisition of Louth Automation.

Other Income: Other income increased from $19.3 million in1999 to $48.2 million in 2000 due primarily to a $21.9 milliongain from the sale of one million shares of Intersil HoldingCorporation stock as a part of Intersil Holding Corporation’sinitial public offering. The remaining increase was due togains on the sale and redemption of other securities partiallyoffset by lower income from Harris’ equity investments.

In terest In come and In terest Expen s e : In terest incom eincreased from $13.3 million in 1999 to $27.4 million in 2000due to higher cash balances that resulted from the sale of thes em i con du ctor business and the spin-of f of L a n i erWorldwide, Inc. Interest expense increased from $9.8 millionin 1999 to $25.2 million in 2000 due to a higher allocation ofinterest expense to the results of discontinued operations inthe prior year. Total interest expense from both continuingopera ti ons and discon ti nu ed opera ti ons dec re a s ed from$84.0 million in 1999 to $41.7 million in 2000. This decreaseis due to the repayment of short-term debt with the cashreceived from the sale of the semiconductor business and thespin-off of Lanier Worldwide, Inc., and lower interest rates.

Income Taxes: The provision for income taxes as a percentageof pretax income was 35.0 percent in fiscal 2000 versus 36.0percent in the prior year. Both 2000 and 1999 benefited fromtax rates on foreign source income and export sales, whichoffset the additional provision needed for state income taxes.

Return on Revenue: Income from continuing operations as apercentage of revenue was 1.4 percent in 2000 versus 2.9 percent in 1999. The redu cti on was pri m a ri ly due to re s tru ctu ri n g expenses, purchased in-process research anddevelopment,and the transition costs and operating losses ofexited product lines which were partially offset by the gainfrom sales of Intersil Holding Corporation stock. Excludingthese item s , i n come from con ti nuing opera ti ons as a percentage of revenue increased from 4.2 percent in 1999 to4.3 percent in 2000.

Sel ected financial inform a ti on rel a ting to geogra ph i c a lregions and export sales is set forth in the note “BusinessSegments” in the Notes to Financial Statements.

Fiscal 1999 Compared with 1998Net Sales and Operating Income: Revenue from productsales and services decreased 9.4 percent to $1.74 billion in fiscal 1999, from $1.92 billion in fiscal 1998. Income fromcontinuing operations before extraordinary item was $49.9million, down 24.8 percent from $66.4 million in fiscal 1998.Income from continuing operations before extraordinaryi tem in fiscal 1999 inclu ded a re s tru ctu ring ch a r ge forem p l oyee redu cti ons of $5.1 mill i on , a on e - time $20.6 million charge for litigation costs for the settlement of apatent litigation relating to an older product no longermanufactured by the Company, and an $18.0 million chargefor set t l em ent of claims and unrecovera ble con tract devel op-m ent costs on two con tract s . Pri or- year income from con ti nu i n goperations includes $16.1 million of restructuring expensesand a $12.0 million provision for costs associated with aMalaysian contract. Excluding all of the above items for bothyears, income from continuing operations declined approxi-mately 8 percent in fiscal 1999.

Net sales for the Government C ommunications segment infiscal 1999 were $813.2 million, 14.5 percent lower than theprior year, while operating profit increased 18.7 percent to$52.1 million. Excluding prior year restructuring charges andu nu sual lon g - term con tract ch a r ges in both ye a rs ($18.0 mil-l i on in fiscal 1999 and $19.8 mill i on in fiscal 1998), opera ti n gprofit incre a s ed 10.0 percent in fiscal 1999. Lower sales in thes egm en t’s inform a ti on sys tems and aero s p ace sys tems produ ctlines more than of fs et growth in the com mu n i c a ti ons sys tem sproduct line. Lower sales in information systems and aero-space systems was primarily attributable to declining orderbacklog. The increase in operating profit was related to f i n a ls et t l em ent of pri or ye a r ’s overh e ad ra tes and to incre a s ed gro s sm a r gins re su l ting from a more favora ble con tract mix.

Commercial Communications segment sales decreased 4.5percent to $930.3 million in fiscal 1999, from $973.7 millionin fiscal 1998. Excluding a fiscal 1999 one-time $20.6 millioncharge for litigation costs and a fiscal 1998 restructuringcharge of $8.3 million, operating profit declined 19.9 percentto $54.7 mill i on from $68.3 mill i on in fiscal 1998.Significantly lower sales and gross margins in the segment’sm i c row ave radio and digital swi tch produ ct lines of fs et mode s timprovement in sales and earnings for the segment’s broad-cast equipment product line. Lower sales in the microwaveproduct lines resulted primarily from weak internationalmarkets and lower than expected PCS growth in the NorthAmerican market. As a result, overcapacity in the industrycaused severe pricing pressures and margin erosion. Therealso was a significant reduction in foreign sales for digitals wi tch produ ct s . Sales for the segm en t’s radio com mu n i c a ti onproduct line were marginally higher than the prior year whileoperating profit was relatively unchanged.

Cost of Sales and Services: Cost of sales and services was$1.28 billion in fiscal 1999. Costs as a percentage of salesdecreased from 75.0 percent in fiscal 1998 to 73.3 percent infiscal 1999. The dec rease was pri m a ri ly attri but a ble toi m proved gross margins in the Com p a ny ’s Govern m en tCommunications segment which were partially offset by thedecline in the gross margins in the Com m erc i a lCommunications segment.

Operating Expenses: Engineering, selling, and administra-tive expenses as a percentage of sales were 22 percent in 1999,up slightly from 21.9 percent in the prior year. Higher expen-ditures for marketing and Company-sponsored research anddevelopment were offset by lower administrative expenses forthe year. Headquarters expense, which is included in admin-istrative expenses, was $28.4 million lower than fiscal 1998due to lower expenses associated with the employee benefitplans and a continued emphasis on cost controls.

Other Income and Expense: Interest expense was lower infiscal 1999 due to a lower level of borrowi n gs from con ti nu i n goperations in fiscal 1999 compared to fiscal 1998. Interestexpense is allocated to the Company’s discontinued opera-tions based upon the capital employed by the business.Interest expense before allocations to discontinued opera-tions increased from $73.2 million to $84.0 million due tohigher borrowings and higher interest rates.

“Other income” was $38.3 million lower in fiscal 1999 dueprimarily to lower amounts of gains from the sale of invest-ment securities and lower royalty income compared to fiscal1998.

The p rovision for income taxes from continuing operationsas a percen t a ge of i n come before income taxes was 36.0 percen t

in both fiscal 1999 and fiscal 1998. The increase from thestatutory U.S. income tax rate of 35.0 percent in both yearswas due primarily to provisions for state income taxes.

Cash and marketable securities: Harris completed severaltransactions that resulted in significant cash receipts includ-ing $520 million from the sale of it semiconductor business toIn tersil Corpora ti on , $546 mill i on from the LanierWorldwide, Inc.spin-off,and $120 million from the paymentof a note and the sale of Intersil Holding Corporation sharesas a result of the initial public offering of Intersil HoldingCorporation. Harris has used a portion of this cash to reducetotal debt by $347.7 million, to repurchase Harris’ CommonStock, and for other general corporate purposes, such as theacqu i s i ti ons of Lo uth Autom a ti on and TRT Lu cen tTechnologies’ point-to-point microwave radio business.

Harris plans to use its remaining cash balances for similargeneral corporate purposes in the future, such as acquisitionsand repurchases of its Common Stock.

Marketable securities increased from $15.5 million as of July2,1999 to $432.5 million as of June 30,2000.

Working capital: Working capital increased $849.0 millionfrom $224.1 million as of July 2, 1999 to $1,073.1 million asof June 30, 2 0 0 0 . Al s o, total debt dec re a s ed from $838.7 mill i onto $491.0 million for the same periods. These changes werelargely due to a $292.5 million increase in cash and cashequivalents,a $248.1 million decrease in short-term debt dueto the sale of Harris’ semiconductor operation and the spin-off of Lanier Worldwide, Inc., and a $417.0 million increase in marketable securities noted above. These increases werepartially offset by a $142.9 million change in current deferredi n come taxes rel a ted pri m a ri ly to unre a l i zed gains on m a rket a ble sec u ri ti e s , i n c re a s ed receiva bles due to moreex ten ded terms in Ha rri s’ Com m ercial Com mu n i c a ti ons segment, and a decrease in accounts payable.

Intangibles resulting from acquisitions: In t a n gi bles re su l t-ing from acqu i s i ti ons incre a s ed from $72.8 mill i on as of Ju ly2 , 1999 to $166.2 mill i on as of June 30, 2 0 0 0 . The increase wasdue pri m a ri ly to goodwi ll recorded as a re sult of the Lo ut hAutom a ti on acqu i s i ti on and intell ectual property assoc i a tedwith the TRT Lu cent Tech n o l ogi e s’ poi n t - to - point microw averadio business acqu i s i ti on .

Non-current deferred income taxes: The liability for non-current deferred income taxes was $14.1 million as of June 30,2000 versus $47.3 million as of July 2,1999. The decrease wasdue primarily to lower amounts of timing differences relatedto accruals and depreciation par tially offset by more timingdifferences related to international tax loss carryforwards.

Total debt and capitalization: At June 30, 2000, debt totaled$491.0 million, representing 26.3 percent of total capital(defined as the sum of total debt plus shareholders’ equity). Ayear earlier, debt of $838.7 million was 34.5 percent of totalcapital. Cash received from the sale of Harris’ semiconductoroperation and the spin-off of Lanier Worldwide, Inc. wasused to decrease the debt balance. Year-end long-term debtincluded $350.0 million of debentures,$30.5 million of notespayable to banks,and $2.1 million of other long-term debt.

In 2000, Harris issued 161,545 shares of Common Stock toemployees under the terms of Harris’ stock purchase, option,and incentive plans.

Harris’ debt is currently rated “BBB” by Standard and Poor’sRatings Group and “Baa1” by Moody’s Investors Service.Ha rris ex pects to maintain opera ting ra ti o s ,f i xed ch a r ge covera geratios, and balance sheet ratios sufficient for retention ofthese debt ratings.

Pu rchase of Com m on Stock for Trea su ry: Ha rris used$232.8 mill i on to rep u rchase 10.7 mill i on shares of i t sCommon Stock in fiscal 2000 compared to $15.7 million topurchase 0.4 million shares in fiscal 1999. Harris’ Board ofDirectors has approved a share repurchase program whichauthorizes the repurchase of up to 15 million shares throughopen market transactions,in negotiated block transactions orpursuant to tender offers.

Additions of Plant and Equipment: Additions of plant andequipment for 2000 were $81.3 million versus $60.4 millionin 1999. The increase is due to the purchase of a new head-qu a rters building for Ha rri s’ broadcast com mu n i c a ti on soperation in Mason, Ohio and the buyout of a lease on a PCboard manufacturing plant in San Antonio, Texas. Harris hasoutsourced this manufacturing process and is leasing thespace to the new manufacturer. Total additions for Harris infiscal 2001 a re ex pected to be approx i m a tely $80 mill i on .

R e t i rement PlansRetirement benefits for substantially all of Harris’ employeesare provided primarily through a retirement plan havingprofit sharing and savings elements. Harris also provides limited health-care benefits to retirees who have 10 or moreyears of service. All obligations under Harris’ retirement planshave been fully funded by Harris’ contributions,the provisionfor which totaled $37.4 million in fiscal 2000.

Impact of Fo reign Exc h a n g eApproximately 50 percent of Harris’ international business istransacted in local currency environments. The impact oftranslating the assets and liabilities of these operations to U.S.dollars is included as a component of shareholders’ equity. AtJune 30,2000,the cumulative translation adjustment reducedshareholders’ equity by $16.5 million compared to a reduc-tion of $11.7 million at July 2, 1999.

Ha rris uti l i zes forei gn currency hed ging instru m ents to minimizethe currency risk of international transactions. Gains andlosses resulting from currency rate fluc tuations did not havea material effect on Harris’ results in 2000,1999, or 1998.

Impact of InflationTo the extent feasible, Harris has consistently followed thepracti ce of ad ju s ting its pri ces to ref l ect the impact of i n f l a ti onon salaries and fringe benefits for employees and the cost ofpurchased materials and services.

M a r ket Risk ManagementHarris,in the normal course of doing business, is exposed tothe risks associated with foreign currency exchange rates,fluctuations in the market value of its equity securities avail-able for sale, and changes in interest rates. Harris employs

Page 30: Financial Reports | Harris

established policies and procedures governing the use offinancial instruments to manage its exposure to such risks.

Harris uses foreign exchange contracts and options to hedgeboth balance sheet and off-balance sheet foreign currencycommitments. Specifically, these foreign exchange contractsoffset foreign currency denominated inventory and purchasecommitments from supplie rs, and accounts receivable fromand future committed sales to customers, and intercompanyloans. Management believes the use of foreign currencyfinancial instruments should reduce the risks that arise fromdoing business in international markets. Contracts are gener-ally one year or less. At June 30,2000, Harris had open foreignexchange contracts with a notional amount of $28.5 million,of which $4.0 million were to hedge off-balance sheet com-mitments. At July 2, 1999, Harris had open foreign exchangecontracts with a notional amount of $37.0 million, of which$7.7 million was to hedge off-balance sheet commitments.Additionally, for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2000, Harrispurchased and sold $432.3 million of foreign exchange for-ward and option contracts, compared to $366.1 million forthe comparable prior year period. Harris’ hedging activitiesprovide only limited protection against currency exchangerisks. Factors that could impact the effectiveness of Harris’hedging programs include accuracy of sales estimates, volatil-ity of currency markets, and the cost and availability of h ed g-ing instru m en t s . A 10 percent adverse ch a n ge in curren c yexchange rates for Harris’ foreign currency derivatives held atJune 30, 2000 would have an impact of approximately $1.7million on the fair value of such instruments. This quantifi-cation of exposure to the market risk associated with foreignexchange financial instruments does not take into accountthe offsetting impact of changes in the fair value of Harris’forei gn den om i n a ted asset s ,l i a bi l i ti e s , and firm com m i tm en t s .

Harris also maintains a portfolio of marketable equity securi-ties available for sale. These investments result from theret a i n ed interest in sold or spun-of f businesses and the inve s t-m ent in start-up companies that have tech n o l ogy or produ ct sthat are of interest to Harris. The fair market value of thesesecurities at June 30, 2000 was $432.5 million, compared to$15.5 million as of July 2, 1999. This increase was due to theinitial public offerings of two of these investments and anincrease in these securities’ quoted market prices. The corre-sponding unrealized gain is included as a component ofshareholders’ equity. These investments have historically hadhigher volatility than most market indices. A 10 percentadverse change in the quoted market price of marketableequity securities would have an impact of approximately$43.3 million on the fair market value of these securities.

Harris utilizes a balanced mix of debt maturities along withboth fixed - ra te and va ri a bl e - ra te debt to manage its ex po su re sto changes in interest rates. Harris does not expect changes ininterest rates to have a material effect on income or cash flowsin fiscal 2001, a l t h o u gh there can be no assu ra n ces that intere s trates will not significantly change.

E n v i ronmental MattersHarris is actively engaged in complying with environmentalprotection laws. In addition to ongoing internal complianceprograms, an estimated $0.1 million was spent on environ-m ental capital proj ects in fiscal 2000 and $0.3 mill i on in fiscal1999. Harris estimates that it will authorize $0.1 million infiscal 2001 for environmental-related capital projects. Underthe Superfund Act or similar state environmental laws, Harrisalso has potential liability at various waste sites designated forclean-up. Harris is named as a potentially responsible party ateleven such sites where future liabilities could exist. Thesesites include two Harris-owned sites, four sites associatedwith former Harris locations, and five non-Harris-ownedtreatment or disposal sites, allegedly containing hazardoussubstances attributable to Harris from past operations. Harrisroutinely assesses its contingencies, obligations, and commit-ments to clean up and monitor sites in light of in-depth studies, analysis by environmental experts, and legal reviews.At the two Ha rri s - own ed sites and four sites assoc i a ted with form er Ha rris loc a ti on s , Ha rris is invo lved pri m a ri ly in mon i-toring and rem ed i a ti on programs that have been implem en tedin coopera ti on with va rious envi ron m ental agen c i e s . At theo t h er site s , Ha rris is invo lved as one of nu m erous po ten ti a llyre s pon s i ble parties (PRPs ) . In ascertaining envi ron m en t a lex po su re s ,m a n a gem ent must assess the ex tent of con t a m i n a ti on ,the nature of remedial actions, continually evolving govern-mental standards, and the number, participation level, andfinancial vi a bi l i ty of o t h er PRPs and other similar variables. Based upon internal and third-party studies,as wellas the remediation and monitoring expense history at the twoHarris-owned sites and four sites associated with formerHarris locations, the number and solvency of PRPs at theother sites,and an assessment of other relevant factors, Harrishas esti m a ted that its disco u n ted liabi l i ty under theSu perfund Act and other envi ron m ental statutes and regulations for identified sites, using a 9.5 percent discountrate, is approximately $5.5 million. Harris has accrued t h e s ed i s co u n ted liabi l i ti e s . The ex pected aggrega te undisco u n tedamount that will be incurred over the next 20 to 25 years( depending on the nu m ber of ye a rs for each site) is approximately $11.1 million. The expected payments for thenext five years are: 2001 – $1.4 million; 2002 – $0.9 million;2003 – $0.6 million;2004 – $0.6 million; 2005 – $0.6 million;and the aggrega te amount there a f ter is approx i m a tely $7.0 million.

During the past several years Harris diligently addressed thepotential Year 2000 problem by undertaking 235 remediationproject initiatives relating to four basic aspects of Harris andits business operations: (1) int ernal information technologys ys tem s , i n cluding sales order proce s s i n g, con tract manage-m en t , financial sys tem s , and servi ce managem en t ; (2) intern a ln on - i n form a ti on tech n o l ogy sys tem s , i n cluding of f i ce equ i p-m ent and test equ i pm en t ; (3) produ cts and servi ce s ; and (4)m a terial third - p a rty rel a ti on s h i p s . Ha rris com p l eted all thesei n i ti a tives at the ori gi n a lly esti m a ted cost of $20 mill i on do ll a rs .This cost was gen era lly not increm ental to ex i s ti n g informationtechnology budgets.

These assu m pti ons affect the report-ed amounts of a s s ets and liabi l i ties and discl o su re of con ti n gen ta s s ets and liabi l i ties at the date of the financial statem ents andthe reported amounts of revenues and ex penses du ring thereporting peri od . Actual re sults could differ from those esti-m a te s . Si gnificant intercom p a ny tra n s acti ons and accounts havebeen el i m i n a ted .

Fiscal Year – Harris’ fiscal year ends on the Friday nearestJune 30. Fiscal Years 2000 and 1999 include 52 weeks, whilethe 1998 fiscal year includes 53 weeks.

Cash Equivalents – Cash equivalents are temporary cashinvestments with a maturity of three months or less whenpurchased. These investments include accrued interest andare carried at the lower of cost or market.

Ma rket a ble Sec u ri ti e s – Ma rket a ble equ i ty sec u ri ties are statedat fair value, with unrealized gains and losses, net of tax,included as a separate component of shareholders’ equity.Realized gains and losses from marketable securities aredetermined using the specific identification method. The costbasis of marketable securities was $63.5 million at June 30,2000, and $3.9 million at July 2, 1999. The proceeds from thesale of marketable securities was $52.6 million in 2000, $9.9million in 1999, and $39.6 million in 1998. The amount ofgross realized gains included in “Other income” was $49.6m i ll i on in 2000, $9.6 mill i on in 1999, and $38.8 mill i on in 1998.The fiscal 2000 gross realized gains included a $21.9 milliongain from the sale of one million shares of Intersil HoldingCorporation stock as a part of Intersil Holding Corporation’sinitial public offering.

Inven tori e s – Inven tories are pri ced at the lower of cost (deter-m i n ed by avera ge and firs t - i n ,f i rs t - o ut met h ods) or market .

Plant and Equipment – Plant and equipment are carried onthe basis of cost. Depreciation of buildings, machinery, andequipment is computed by the straight-line and acceleratedm et h od s . The esti m a ted useful lives of bu i l d i n gs ra n gebet ween 5 and 50 ye a rs . The esti m a ted useful lives of m ach i n eryand equipment range between 3 and 10 years.

Intangibles – In t a n gi bles re su l ting from acqu i s i ti ons are bei n ga m orti zed by the stra i ght-line met h od pri n c i p a lly over 10 to 15ye a rs . Recovera bi l i ty of i n t a n gi bles is assessed using esti m a tedu n d i s co u n ted cash flows of rel a ted opera ti on s . In t a n gi bles thata re not ex pected to be recovered thro u gh futu re undisco u n tedcash flows are ch a r ged to ex pense wh en iden ti f i ed . Am o u n t sch a r ged to ex pense are amounts in excess of the fair va lue ofthe intangi ble asset . Fair va lue is determ i n ed as the pre s en tva lue of e s ti m a ted ex pected futu re cash flows using a disco u n tra te com m en su ra te with the risks invo lved .

In come Ta xe s – Ha rris fo ll ows the liabi l i ty met h od ofaccounting for income taxes.

Revenue Recognition – Revenue is recognized from salesother than on long-term contracts when a product is shipped,from rentals as they accrue, and from services when per-formed. Unearned income on service contracts is amortizedby the straight-line method over the term of the contracts.

Revenue and anticipated profits under long-term contractsare recorded on a percentage-of-completion basis, generallyusing the cost-to-cost method of accounting where sales andprofits are recorded based on the ratio of costs incurred toestimated total costs at completion. Contracts are combinedwhen specific aggregation criteria are met. Criteria generallyinclude close ly interrelated activities performed for a singlecustomer within the same economic environment. Contractsgenerally are not segmented.

Amounts representing contract change orders, claims, orother items are included in sales only when they can bereliably estimated and realization is probable. Incentives orpenalties and awards applicable to performance on contractsare considered in estimating sales and profit rates, and arerecorded wh en there is su f f i c i ent inform a ti on to assess a n ti c i p a ted con tract perform a n ce . In cen tive provi s i on s ,which increase or decrease earnings based solely on a singlesignificant event, are generally not recognized until the eventoccurs.

When adjustments in contract value or estimated costs aredetermined,any changes from prior estimates are reflected inearnings in the current period. Anticipated losses on con-tracts or programs in progress are charged to earnings whenidentified.

Roya l ty income is inclu ded as a com pon ent of “Ot h erincome” and is recognized on the basis of terms specified incontractual agreements.

Reti rem ent Ben ef i t s – Ha rris and its su b s i d i a ri e s provideretirement benefits to substantially all employees primarilythrough a retirement plan having profit-sharing and savingselements. Contributions by Harris to the retirement plan areb a s ed on profits and em p l oyee s’ s avi n gs with no other fundingrequirements. Harris may make additional contributions tothe fund at its discretion.

Retirement benefits also include an unfunded limited health-care plan for U.S.-based retirees and employees on long-termdisability. Harris accrues the estimated cost of these medicalbenefits, which are not material, during an employee’s activeservice life.

Environmental Expenditures – Harris capitalizes environ-mental expenditures that increase the life or efficiency ofproperty or that reduce or prevent environmental contami-nation. Harris accrues environmental expenses resulting fromexisting conditions that relate to past operations when thecosts are probable and reasonably estimable.

Ba s ed on an assessment of rel evant factors , Ha rris has estimated that its discounted liability under the SuperfundAct and other environmental statutes and regulations foridentified sites, using a 9.5 percent discount rate, is approxi-mately $5.5 million. This liability is accrued in the June 30,2000 consolidated balance sheet. The expected aggregateundiscounted amount that will be incurred over the next 20to 25 years (depending on the number of years for each site)is approximately $11.1 million. The expected payments forthe next five ye a rs are : 2001 – $1.4 mill i on ; 2002 – $0.9 mill i on ;2003 – $0.6 mill i on ; 2004 – $0.6 mill i on ; 2005 – $0.6 mill i on ;and the aggrega te amount there a f ter is approx i m a tely $7.0million.

Fut u res and Forw a rd Con tra c t s – Wh en Ha rris sells products outside the United States or enters into purchasecommitments, transactions are sometimes denominated incurrencies other than U.S. dollars. To minimize the impact onrevenue and cost from currency fluctuations, Harris entersinto currency exchange agreements that qualify for hedgeaccounting treatment. It is Harris’ policy not to speculate inforeign currencies. Currency exchange agreements are desig-nated as,and are effective as,hedges of foreign currency assetsand liabilities. In addition, these agreements are consistentwith the designated currency of the underlying asset or liabil-ity. Gains and losses on currency exchange agreements thatqualify as hedges are deferred and recognized as an adjust-ment of the carrying amount of the hedged asset or liability.Gains and losses on currency exchange agreements that donot qualify as hedges are recognized in income based onchanges in the fair market value of the currency exchangeagreement.

Foreign Currency Translation – The functional currency formost international subsidiaries is the local currency. Assetsand liabilities are translated at current rates of exchange, andincome and expense items are translated at the weighted aver-age exchange rate for the year. The resulting translationadjustments are recorded as a separate component of share-holders’ equity.

Unearned Compensation – Compensation resulting fromperformance shares granted under Harris’ long-term incen-tive plan is amortized to expense over the performance peri-od and is adjusted for changes in the market value of Harris’Common Stock.

Net Income Per Share – Net income per share is based uponthe weighted average number of common shares outstandingduring each year.

Reclassifications – Certain prior-year amounts have beenreclassified on the financial statements to conform with current year classifications

Stock SplitOn August 23,1997,the Board of Directors authorized a two-for-one stock split to shareholders of record on September 4,1997. All references in the financial statements and notes to

financial statements to number of shares, per share amounts,and market prices of Harris’ Common Stock have beenre s t a ted to ref l ect the incre a s ed nu m ber of s h a res out s t a n d i n g.

Accounting ChangesIn February 1998, the American Institute of Certified PublicAccountants issued Statement of Position (“SOP”) 98-1,“Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developedor Obtained for Internal Use,” which is effective for fiscalyears beginning after December 15, 1998. This SOP requirescapitalization of certain costs incurred in the development ofinternal-use software, including external direct material andservice costs, employee payroll and payroll-related costs, andinterest. Harris has adopted SOP 98-1 for fiscal 2000. Theadoption did not have a material effect on Harris’ financialstatements.

In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board( “ FA S B”) issu ed Statem ent of Financial Acco u n ti n gStandards No. 133 (“SFAS 133”), “Accounting for DerivativeIn s tru m ents and Hed ging Activi ti e s ,” wh i ch establ i s h e saccounting and reporting standards for derivative instru-ments and for hedging activities. It requires an entity torecognize that all derivatives are either assets or liabilities inthe balance sheet and measure those investments at fair value.Implementation of this standard has been delayed by theFASB for a twelve-month period. Harris will be requiredto adopt SFAS 133 in the first quarter of fiscal 2001. This willnot have a material effect on Harris’ results of operations orfinancial position.

In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission( “SEC”) issu ed Staff Acco u n ting Bu ll etin No. 101 (“SAB 101”),“Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements.” SAB 1 0 1su m m a ri zes the SEC’s vi ews in app lying gen era lly acceptedaccounting principles to revenue recognition in financialstatements. Harris is required to adopt SAB 101 in the fourthquarter of fiscal 2001. Management does not believe theadoption of SAB 101 will have a material effect on Harris’results of operations or financial position.

Discontinued Opera t i o n sIn fiscal 1999, Harris decided to sell its semiconductor busi-ness and spin off its Lanier Worldwide, Inc. subsidiary.Accordingly, the results of operations and the net assets of these business segm ents have been recl a s s i f i ed as discontinued operations.

On August 13, 1 9 9 9 , Ha rris com p l eted the sale of su b s t a n ti a llyall of its semiconductor business to Intersil Corporation andits affiliate s .In tersil Corpora ti on was a newly form ed com p a nyown ed by Sterling Holding Com p a ny, L LC , a Ci ti corpVenture Capital Ltd. investment portfolio company, alongwith certain management investors, and affiliates of CreditSuisse First Boston Corporation.

The assets disposed of consisted primarily of land, buildings,equ i pm en t , i nven tory, receiva bl e s , tech n o l ogy, and otherassets related to the operation of the semiconductor business.

In addition to acquiring a 10 percent equity interest in IntersilHolding Corporation for which Harris paid $9 million,Harris received cash of $520 million, a promissory note of$90 mill i on , and In tersil Corpora ti on assu m ed certain liabi l i ti e s .Harris also retained receivables and patent rights. Harrisrecorded an after-tax loss of $76 million for the disposal of itsentire semiconductor business including the portion sold toIntersil Corporation. Intersil Holding Corporation under-took an initial public offering (IPO) in February, 2000. Atthat time, the promissory note was paid, as was the accrued

interest. Harris also participated in the IPO and sold one million of its Intersil Holding Corporation shares at a gain of$21.9 million.

On October 22, 1999, Harris announced that its Board ofDi rectors form a lly approved the spin-of f of its LanierWorldwide, Inc. subsidiary as an independent publicly tradedcompany. The Board declared a dividend of one share ofLanier common stock for each share of Harris CommonStock to Harris shareholders of record on November 1, 1999.The distri buti on of the divi dend was com p l eted onNovember 5, 1999. Harris retained approximately 10 percentof the outstanding shares of Lanier.

R e s t r u c t u r i n gIn fiscal 2000, Ha rris recorded a $41 mill i on ch a r ge ($26.7 million after income tax) for the restructuring of itsopera ti on s . Re s tru ctu ring acti ons inclu de a redu cti on of a pprox i m a tely 161 em p l oyees and provi s i ons for the wri te - down of i n t a n gi ble asset s , equ i pm en t , and other assets associated with the exit from Harris’ CommercialCommunications segment’s telephone switching and alarmmanagement product lines.

In the third quarter of fiscal 2000, 161 switching businessem p l oyees were noti f i ed that their em p l oym ent would be term i n a ted and what their specific severa n ce ben efit would be .

These em p l oyees worked in the marketi n g, s a l e s ,m a nu f actu ri n g,and administrative areas and were primarily located in MarinCounty, California. As of June 30, 2000, 62 employees hadbeen term i n a ted with the balance to be term i n a ted bySeptember 30, 2000.

In June of 2000, Harris sold the core switch business toTel tron i c s , In c . Ha rris also intends to sell other porti ons of t h i sprodu ct line, i n cluding the alarm managem ent and intern a ti on a lactivities, during fiscal 2001. Gains or losses from the sale ofthese operations are included or will be included in restruc-turing expenses in the period the sale occurs. Estimated dis-counted cash flows were used in determining the fair value ofassets and liabilities in recording the restructuring charge.

Summarized financial information for the discontinued operations follows:

Cash outlays for restructuring actions will be primarily forseverance benefits. Harris expects to pay these benefits ratablyover the first two quarters of fiscal 2001 from currentlyavailable cash sources. Sales from this product line were $73.5million in 2000,$126.6 million in 1999,and $140.4 million in1998. Operating losses from these product lines were $18.9million in 2000, $3.6 million in 1999, and $2.9 millionin 1998.

In fiscal 1999, Harris recorded a $5.1 million charge ($3.3million after income taxes) for severance costs associated withthe restructuring of its operations. Restructuring actionsi n clu ded a work force redu cti on of a pprox i m a tely 606employees. At June 30,2000,all of these employees have beenterminated.

Business Combinations In January 2000, Harris purchased Louth Automation, aleading supplier of advanced automation systems for radioand television broadcasters. Also, on June 30, 2000, Harrispurchased the assets of TRT Lucent Technologies’ point-to-point microwave radio business. These acquisitions have beenaccounted for under the purchase method of accounting and,accord i n gly, the re sults of opera ti ons of these acqu i red entities have been included in Harris’ consolidated incomestatement since the date of acquisition. Pro forma results ofoperations have not been presented because the effect of theseacquisitions was not m a teri a l . Ha rris paid cash in the netamount of a pprox i m a tely $87 million for Louth Automationand $30 million for TRT Lucent Technologies’ point-to-pointmicrowave radio business. The final determination o f thesep u rchase pri ces is su bj ect to ad ju s tm en t . The amount allocated to purchased in-process research and developmenton the Louth Automation acquisition was $10.7 million. Thepurchased in-process research and development expenseswere determined through established valuation techniques in

the technology communications industry and were expensedupon acquisition because technological feasibility had notbeen establ i s h ed and no futu re altern a tive uses ex i s ted .Research and development costs to bring the products fromthe acquired company to technological feasibility are notexpected to have a material impact on Harris’ future results ofoperations or cash flows. Amounts allocated to goodwill andp u rch a s ed intangi ble assets for Lo uth Autom a ti on are amortized on a straight-line basis over periods not exceedingten years. The amortization period for purchased intangiblea s s ets in the TRT Lu cent Tech n o l ogi e s’ poi n t - to - poi n tmicrowave radio business has not b een finalized.

E x t ra o rdinary LossIn June 1999, Harris retired $150.0 million of 10-3/8%debentures due in 2018 and $96.0 million of notes payable toinsurance companies due from 1999 to 2001. Debt retirementresulted in an extraordinary loss of $9.2 million ($.12 pershare),net of related income taxes of $4.7 million.

Th i sf ac i l i ty ex p i res in Novem ber 2001. In terest ra tes on borrowi n gsu n der the $500 mill i on fac i l i ty are determ i n ed by a pri c i n gmatrix based upon Harris’ long-term debt ratings assigned byStandard and Poor ’s Ra ti n gs Group and Moody ’s Inve s torsServi ce . A fac i l i ty fee is paya ble on the credit and determ i n ed inthe same manner as the interest rates. Harris is not required tomaintain compensating balances in connection with thisagreement. Un der the credit fac i l i ty, n one was outstanding atJune 30, 2 0 0 0 . This agreem ent contains certain financial convenants including mainten a n ce of at least $900 mill i on oft a n gi bl e net worth and total debt not to exceed 50 percent oftotal capital.

Ha rris also has lines of c redit for short - term financing aggre-gating $98.8 million from various U.S. and foreign banks, ofwhich $23.2 million was available on June 30, 2000. Thesearrangements provide for borrowing at various interest rates,are reviewed annually for renewal, and may be used on suchterms as Harris and the banks mutually agree. These lines donot require compensating balances. Approximately $149.8m i ll i on worth of debt was inclu ded in net assets ofdiscontinued operations on the July 2, 1999, consolidatedbalance sheet.

S h o r t - Term DebtShort-term debt of $75.6 million in 2000 and $323.7 millionin 1999 is entirely made up of notes payable to banks in bothyears. As of June 30, 2000, $26.0 million of these bank noteswere with Brazilian banks at a weighted-average interest rateof 18.1 percent. The weighted-average interest rate for banknotes other than those with Brazilian banks was 6.4 percent asof June 30, 2000 and 6.3 percent as of July 2,1999.

P re f e r red Stock Purchase RightsOn December 6, 1996, Harris declared a dividend of one pre-ferred share purchase right for each outstanding share ofCommon Stock. These rights, which expire on December 6,2006, are evidenced by the Common Stock share certificatesand trade with the Common Stock until they become exercis-able, entitle the holder to purchase one two-hundredth of ashare of Participating Preferred Stock for $125, subject toadjustment. The rights are not exercisable until the earlier of10 business days (or such later date fixed by the Board) aftera party commences a tender or exchange offer to acquire abeneficial interest of at least 15% of Ha rri s’ o ut s t a n d i n gCom m on Stock, or the first date of public announcement byHarris that a person has acquired a beneficial interest of atleast 15% of Harris’ outstanding Common Stock, or suchlater date fixed by the Board of Directors of Harris.

Upon the first date of public announcement by Harris that aperson has acquired a beneficial interest of at least 15% ofHarris’ outstanding Common Stock, or such later date fixedby the Board of Directors of Harris, each right (other thanrights beneficially owned by an acquiring person or any affil-iate or associate thereof) would entitle the holder to purchaseshares of Common Stock of Harris having a market valueequal to twice the exercise price of the right. In addition,each

right (other than rights beneficially owned by an acquiringperson or any affiliate or associate thereof) would entitle theri gh t h o l der to exercise the ri ght and receive shares of com m ons tock of the acqu i ring com p a ny, u pon a mer ger or other bu s i n e s scombination, having a market value of twice the exerciseprice of the right.

Un der certain circ u m s t a n ces after the ri ghts become exercisable, the Board of Directors may elect to exchange allof the then outstanding rights for shares of Common Stock atan exchange ratio of one share of Common Stock per right,subject to adjustment. The rights have no voting privilegesand may be redeemed by the Board of Directors at a price of$.01 per ri ght at any time pri or to the acqu i s i ti on of a ben ef i c i a lownership of 15% of the outstanding Common Stock.

Stock Options and Awa rd sThe fo ll owing inform a ti on rel a tes to stock opti on and incen tivestock awards. Option prices are 100 percent of market valueon the date the options are granted. Option grants are for am a x i mum of ten ye a rs after dates of grant and may be exerc i s edin install m en t s . As a re sult of the spin-of f of L a n i erWorldwide, Inc. on November 5, 1999, Harris adjusted theopti on pri ce and the nu m ber of s h a res on all of its out s t a n d i n goptions so that the fair value of each option holders’ optionwould be the same b efore and after the distribution.

Presented below is pro forma information regarding netincome and net income per share. It has been determined asif Harris had accounted for stock options using the fair valuemethod of accounting for stock options. The fair value ofeach option grant is estimated on the grant date using theBl ack - S choles opti on pricing model with the fo ll owi n gassumptions:

2000 1999 1998

Expected dividend yield 0.5% 2.1% 2.1%Expected stock price volatility 36.3% 24.5% 20.4%Risk-free interest rate 6.0% 5.0% 5.8%Expected life (years) 4 4 4

For purposes of pro forma disclosure,the estimated fair valueof options is amortized to expense over their three-year vesting period. Under the fair value method, Harris’ netincome and net income per share would have been reducedas follows:

(In millions,except per share amounts) 2000 1999 1998

Net income $5.7 $5.3 $4.9Basic net income per share $.08 $.07 $.06Diluted net income per share $.08 $.07 $.06

Because the fair value method of accounting for optionsapplies only to options granted subsequent to June 30, 1995,the pro forma effect was not fully reflected until 1999.

Harris has a stock incentive plan for directors and keyemployees. Awards under this plan may include the grant ofperformance shares, restricted stock, stock options, stockappreciation rights, or other stock-based awards. The aggre-gate number of shares of Common Stock which may beawarded under the plan in each fiscal year is 1.0 percent ofthe total outstanding shares of Common Stock plus sharesavailable from prior years. Performance shares outstandingwere 209,716 at June 30, 2000, 429,869 at July 2, 1999, and625,365 at July 3,1998.Shares of Common Stock reserved forfuture awards under the plan were 3,242,441 at June 30,2000,2,296,417 at July 2, 1999, and 2,509,002 at July 3,1998.

Under Harris’ domestic retirement plan, employees maypurchase a limited amount of Harris’ Common Stock at 70

percent of current market value. The discounts from fairmarket value on Common Stock purchased by employeesu n der the dom e s tic reti rem ent plan are ch a r ged to com pen s a ti onex pense in the peri od of the rel a ted purch a s e . S h a res of Common Stock reserved for future purchases by the retirement plan were 2,172,688 at June 30, 2000.

United States income taxes have not been provided on $346m i ll i on of u n d i s tri buted earn i n gs of i n tern a ti onal su b s i d i a ri e sbecause of Harris’ intention to reinvest these earnings. Thedetermination of unrecognized deferred U.S. tax liability forthe undistributed earnings of international subsidiaries is notpracticable.

Pretax income (loss) from continuing operations of interna-tional subsidiaries was $1.0 million in 2000, $2.7 million in1999, and $(3.4) million in 1998.

Income taxes paid were $47.4 million in 2000, $35.5 millionin 1999, and $29.2 million in 1998.

Business SegmentsHarris is structured primarily around the markets it servesand opera tes in two business segm ents – Govern m en tCom mu n i c a ti ons and Com m ercial Com mu n i c a ti on s . Th eGovernment Communications segment engages in advancedresearch and develops, designs, and produces advanced com-mu n i c a ti on and inform a ti on processing sys tem s . Th eCommercial Communications segment produces broadcast,radio communications, and telecommunications productsand sys tem s . Ha rri s’ produ cts and sys tems are produ ced principally in the United States with international revenuesderived primarily from exports.

The accounting policies of the operating segments are thesame as those described in the Significant Accounting Policiesfootnote. Harris evaluates performance based on profit orloss from operations before income taxes excluding interestincome and expense, equity income, and gains or losses fromsecurities and other investments. Intersegment sales, which

I n t e rest ExpenseTotal interest from continuing operations was $25.2 millionin 2000, $9.9 million in 1999, and $13.5 million in 1998.Interest attributable to funds used to finance major long-termconstruction projects is capitalized as an additional cost ofthe related asset. No interest was capitalized in fiscal 2000.Interest capitalized was $0.1 million in 1999 and $1.0 millionin 1998. Interest paid was $25.5 million in 2000,$14.6 millionin 1999, and $9.9 million in 1998.

To Harris Directors and Shareholders:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Harris Corporation and its subsidiaries as

of June 30, 2000 and July 2, 1999 and the related consolidated statements of income, cash flows, and

comprehensive income and shareholders’ equity for each of the three fiscal years in the period ended

June 30, 2000. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Corporation’s management. Our

responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. The financial

statements of GE-Harris Railway Electronics, LLC and subsidiaries, (a company in which the Corporation

has a 49% interest), have been audited by other auditors whose report has been furnished to us; insofar as

our opinion on the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended July 2,1999, relates to data

included for GE-Harris Railway Electronics, LLC and subsidiaries, it is based solely on their report.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States.

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 op i n i on ,b a s ed on our audits and the report of o t h er auditors (as of and for the year en ded Ju ly 2,

1999), the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated

financial position of Harris Corporation and subsidiaries at June 30, 2000 and July 2, 1999, and the

consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three fiscal years in the period

ended June 30,2000, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
