Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations
June 30, 1998
Except for historical information contained herein, some matters discussed in
this report constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section
27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Actual results could differ materially from
those projected in the forward-looking statements as a result of the risk
factors set forth in this report and in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 1997. Reference is made in particular to the
discussions set forth below in this Report under "Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," and set forth in the
Annual Report on Form 10-K under Item 1 -- "Business -- Second-Generation
Automated Manufacturing Line," "--Competition," "--Patents," and "--Licensing,"
and under Item 7 -- "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations."
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998, COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997
Net revenues for the second quarter of 1998 were $41,718,000, an increase of
$2,000,000 (5.0%) as compared to $39,718,000 for the same period a year ago. The
growth in net revenues resulted primarily from a net increase of unit shipments
of standard and custom products of approximately $3,400,000, offset by a
reduction in the sale of automated manufacturing line equipment of approximately
$1,400,000.
Gross margin decreased $1,576,000 (7.7%) to $18,840,000 from $20,416,000, and
decreased as a percentage of net revenues from 51.4% to 45.2%. The primary
components of the decrease in gross margin dollars and percentage were
attributable to commencement of depreciation on the second-generation automated
production line in the second quarter of 1998 of approximately $1,100,000, and
to changes in the revenue mix. The gross margins for the remainder of 1998 may
be negatively impacted by the depreciation of the second-generation automated
production line until higher production volumes and higher yield levels are
attained. The Company is continuing to introduce selected models of its
second-generation product families and increase production on the new
manufacturing line; however, there can be no assurance that product development
issues will not substantially delay the ultimate general introduction of the
complete product line, require continued modification of product specifications,
or prevent attainment of the anticipated capacity of the new manufacturing line.
Significant revenues from the sale of any product in the Company's
second-generation product line are not expected to occur for several quarters.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $8,576,000 for the period, an
increase of $1,093,000 (14.6%) over the same period in 1997. As a percentage of
net revenues, selling, general and administrative expenses increased to 20.6%
from 18.8%. The principal components of the $1,093,000 increase were $498,000
(17.1%) of increased compensation expense due to growth in staffing levels of
selling and administrative personnel; $261,000 (428.4%) of increased costs for
training and consulting fees for the implementation of the new Enterprise
Resource Planning system, and $233,000 (25.1%) of increased advertising costs.
Research and development expenses increased $957,000 (22.7%) to $5,178,000 and
increased as a percentage of net revenues to 12.4% from 10.6%. The principal
component of the $957,000 increase was $898,000 (37.1%) of increased
compensation expense due to growth in staffing levels of engineering personnel,
primarily related to the research and development of the second-generation
product line.
Other income increased $80,000 (6.5%) from the same period a year ago, to
$1,310,000. Other income is primarily comprised of interest income derived from
invested cash and cash equivalents, as well as notes receivable associated with
the Company's real estate transactions. Interest income increased primarily due
to an increase in these balances.

(continued)
Income before income taxes was $6,396,000, a decrease of $3,546,000 (35.7%)
compared to the same period in 1997. As a percentage of net revenues, income
before income taxes decreased from 25.0% to 15.3% primarily due to the gross
margin decrease and the increase in operating expenses as discussed above.
The effective tax rate for the second quarter of 1998 was 35%, compared to 36%
for the same period in 1997.
Net income per share (diluted) was $.10 for the second quarter of 1998, compared
to $.15 for the second quarter of 1997, a decrease of $.05 (33.3%).
SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998, COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997
Net revenues for the first six months of 1998 were $84,910,000, an increase of
$7,253,000 (9.3%) as compared to $77,657,000 for the same period a year ago. The
growth in net revenues resulted primarily from a net increase of unit shipments
of standard and custom products of approximately $11,500,000, offset by
reductions in license income and the sale of automated manufacturing line
equipment of approximately $1,000,000 and $3,300,000, respectively.
Gross margin decreased $891,000 (2.2%) to $39,587,000 from $40,478,000, and
decreased as a percentage of net revenues from 52.1% to 46.6%. The primary
components of the decrease in gross margin dollars and percentage were
attributable to commencement of depreciation on the second-generation automated
production line in the second quarter of 1998 of approximately $1,100,000, and
to changes in the revenue mix. As discussed above, the gross margins for the
remainder of 1998 may be negatively impacted by the depreciation of the
second-generation automated production line until higher production volumes and
higher yield levels are attained.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $16,893,000 for the period, an
increase of $1,963,000 (13.1%) over the same period in 1997. As a percentage of
net revenues, selling, general and administrative expenses increased to 19.9%
from 19.2%. The principal components of the $1,963,000 increase were $710,000
(945.4%) of increased costs for training and consulting fees for the
implementation of the new Enterprise Resource Planning system; $652,000 (11.6%)
of increased compensation expense due to growth in staffing levels of selling
and administrative personnel; $360,000 (16.5%) of increased sales commission
expense, and an increase in the Company's VIA subsidiaries' selling, general and
administrative expenses of $146,000 (18.1%).
Research and development expenses increased $2,094,000 (24.3%) to $10,694,000
and increased as a percentage of net revenues to 12.6% from 11.1%. The increase
was primarily related to the research and development of the second-generation
product line. The principal components of the $2,094,000 increase were
$1,543,000 (31.9%) of increased compensation expense due to growth in staffing
levels of engineering personnel; $270,000 (16.7%) of increased project material
costs and $159,000 (20.9%) of increased depreciation expense.
Other income increased $390,000 (16.7%) from the same period a year ago, to
$2,722,000. Other income is primarily comprised of interest income derived from
invested cash and cash equivalents, as well as notes receivable associated with
the Company's real estate transactions. Interest income increased primarily due
to an increase in these balances.
Income before income taxes was $14,722,000, a decrease of $4,558,000 (23.6%)
compared to the same period in 1997. As a percentage of net revenues, income
before income taxes decreased from 24.8.% to 17.3% primarily due to the gross
margin decrease and the increase in operating expenses as discussed above.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of

June 30, 1998
(continued)
The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 1998 was 35%, compared
to 36% for the same period in 1997.
Net income per share (diluted) was $.22 for the six months ended June 30, 1998,
compared to $.29 for the same period in 1997, a decrease of $.07 (24.1%).
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
At June 30, 1998 the Company had $70,916,000 in cash and cash equivalents. The
ratio of current assets to current liabilities was 5.8:1 compared to 7.9:1 at
December 31, 1997. Working capital decreased $17,498,000, from $128,267,000 at
December 31, 1997 to $110,769,000 at June 30, 1998. The primary factors
affecting the working capital decrease were a decrease in cash of $13,943,000,
and a decrease in accounts receivable of $5,868,000. The primary uses of cash
for the first six months of 1998 were for additions to property and equipment of
$17,966,000 and the acquisition of treasury stock of $13,537,000, offset by cash
provided by operating activities of $18,320,000.
In June 1998, the Company announced that it had agreed to acquire the principal
assets of the switching power supply businesses owned by the Japan Tobacco, Inc.
group ("JT"), and that it would establish a direct presence in Japan through a
new company called Vicor Japan Company, Ltd. ("VJCL"). JT began purchasing
automated manufacturing equipment from the Company in 1993, when it founded a
company to manufacture licensed products in Japan. JT became Vicor's sole
licensee in Japan in 1995, when it acquired a license to manufacture, market and
sell products. Under the terms of the final agreement, Vicor and VJCL acquired
all of the automated manufacturing equipment used for the manufacture of first
and second generation modular converter products, existing raw material and
finished goods inventories, customer lists and certain intellectual property.
The transaction will be accounted for as of July 1, 1998. The Company
anticipates making working capital investments in VJCL during the next several
quarters in order to establish VJCL's operations, and there can be no assurance
that revenues generated from VJCL's operations during these periods will be
sufficient to fully offset such investments.
The Company plans to make continuing investments in manufacturing equipment,
much of which is built internally. The internal construction of manufacturing
machinery, in order to provide for additional manufacturing capacity, is a
practice which the Company expects to continue over the next several years.
The Company has an unused line of credit with a bank under which the Company may
borrow up to $4,000,000 on a revolving credit basis. The Company believes that
cash generated from operations and the total of its cash and cash equivalents,
together with other sources of liquidity, will be sufficient to fund planned
operations and capital equipment purchases for the foreseeable future. At June
30, 1998, the Company had approximately $29,000,000 of capital expenditure
commitments, including approximately $11,000,000 related to the construction of
new and expanded facilities.
The Company does not consider the impact of inflation and changing prices on its
business activities or fluctuations in the exchange rates for foreign currency
transactions to have been significant during the last three fiscal years.
IMPACT OF THE YEAR 2000
The Company is proceeding with its plans to address the Year 2000 Issue.
Inception to date, the Company has incurred approximately $2.5 million ($917,000
expensed and $1.6 million capitalized, primarily for software and hardware for
the new Enterprise Resource System), of which approximately $378,000 was
incurred in the second quarter of 1998 ($321,000 expensed and $57,000
capitalized).
