 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

  TO THE  STOCKHOLDERS  AND BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF TELTREND INC., We have audited
  the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Teltrend Inc. and subsidiaries
  as of July 31, 1999 and July 25, 1998, and the related consolidated statements
  of income,  changes in stockholders' equity and cash flows for the years ended
  July 31, 1999, July 25, 1998, and July 26, 1997.  These  financial  statements
  are the responsibility of the Company's  management.  Our responsibility is to
  express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

     We conducted  our audits in accordance  with  generally  accepted  auditing
  standards.  Those  standards  require  that we plan and  perform  the audit to
  obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
  material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
  supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial  statements.  An audit
  also  includes  assessing  the  accounting  principles  used  and  significant
  estimates  made by  management,  as well as evaluating  the overall  financial
  statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
  for our opinion.

     In our opinion,  the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
  in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Teltrend Inc.
  and  subsidiaries  as of July 31, 1999,  and July 25, 1998, and the results of
  their  operations  and their cash  flows for each of the years  ended July 31,
  1999, July 25, 1998, and July 26, 1997, in conformity with generally  accepted
  accounting principles.

1 BASIS OF PRESENTATION


  ACQUISITION OF TELTREND LIMITED

  On  September  18,  1997 (the  "Acquisition  Date"),  Teltrend  purchased  the
  outstanding  shares of Securicor  3net Limited of  Basingstoke,  England (with
  operations  in the  United  Kingdom,  New  Zealand  and  China)  and its  U.S.
  affiliate   Securicor  3net  Inc.  (together  "Teltrend  Limited")  for  total
  acquisition  costs of  approximately  $14.5  million.  Teltrend  Limited  is a
  telecommunication equipment and software company having annualized revenues in
  excess of $15 million.  The  transaction  was  accounted for as a purchase and
  therefore  the results of Teltrend  Limited  since the  Acquisition  Date are,
  included  with the results of Teltrend.  The purchase  price was  allocated to
  identifiable  tangible and intangible assets,  including purchased  in-process
  research  and  development,  on the basis of fair values as  determined  by an
  independent  appraisal.  All  references  in these notes to  "Teltrend" or the
  "Company"   refer  to  Teltrend  Inc.  and  its  wholly  owned   subsidiaries,
  collectively,   which  includes   Teltrend   Limited  (and  its  wholly  owned
  subsidiaries) from and after the Acquisition Date.

     The  following  table  summarizes,  on an unaudited  pro forma  basis,  the
  combined results of operations as if the above described acquisition had taken
  place on July 28, 1996.  Purchased  in-process research and development assets
  of approximately  $4 million were written off in the fiscal 1998  Consolidated
  Statement  of  Income,  and this is  reflected  in the  fiscal  1997 pro forma
  results presented below.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)



     The value of in-process research and development  purchased in the Teltrend
  Limited  acquisition was determined by estimating the projected net cash flows
  relating to products  under  development  and  discounting  such cash flows to
  their net  present  values.  The four  significant  projects  acquired  by the
  Company were: (1) the PAC+DPM API; (2) the SS7/Q931 for Lucent Definity: Phase
  3; (3) the Interchange iQ5OOO PRI/BRI;  and (4) the Interchange '97/98.  These
  projects  represent  approximately 88% of the acquired  purchased research and
  development  fair value.  The following table summarizes the nature of each of
  these  significant   research  and  development  projects  as  well  as  their
  respective fair values at the Acquisition Date.

     The most significant and uncertain  assumptions that affected the Company's
  valuation  of the  purchased  in-process  research  and  development  projects
  include:  (i) the period of time over which economic benefits were expected to
  commence;  (ii) their expected  income or cash flow  generating  ability;  and
  (iii) the risk adjusted  discount  rate.  The cash flows from the  significant
  research and  development  projects were forecast to begin upon the completion
  of the  development  process,  peak  two to  three  years  thereafter,  and be
  followed  by a  steady  decline.  The  following  table  summarizes,  for each
  significant  in-process project acquired,  the original  estimated  completion
  date,  the  projected  peak  year of sales  for the  related  product  and the
  projected  average  after-tax cash flow decline for the related  product after
  its sales peak.

  allocation  of  product  income to the  in-process  technologies  relative  to
  existing developed and post acquisition yet-to-be-defined

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)



  technologies   expected  to  ultimately   support  the  product  upon  project
  completion.  Sales estimates were based on targeted  market share,  historical
  pricing  trends and  expected  product  life  cycles.  Projects  PAC+DPM  API,
  SS7/Q931  for  Lucent  Definity:  Phase  3,  Interchange  iQ5000  PRI/BRI  and
  Interchange  '97/98 were  projected to have gross margins of 40%, 70%, 70% and
  60%, respectively.  This is compared to historical gross margins for the fully
  developed products acquired in the Teltrend Limited purchase that were greater
  than 65% on average.  Other  operating  expenses,  which included  selling and
  marketing  and  general  and  administrative   expenses,   were  estimated  at
  approximately  30% of sales.  In addition,  the discount rate utilized for all
  acquired  in-process  technologies  was estimated at 30% in  consideration  of
  Teltrend Limited's 15% estimated Weighted Average Cost of Capital ("WACC") and
  the fact that the  in-process  technology  had not yet  reached  technological
  feasibility as of the date of valuation.  In utilizing a discount rate greater
  than Teltrend Limited's WACC, management reflected the risk premium associated
  with  achieving  the timing and  estimated  cash flows  associated  with these
  projects.  Management  is  responsible  for  the  integrity  of the  financial
  information   utilized  in  the   valuation  of  the  acquired   research  and
  development.



2 DISPOSITION OF PRODUCT LINE

  On May 28,  1999,  the  Company  sold  substantially  all of the assets of its
  Packet  Switched  product line to  Centrecorn  Systems  Limited of England for
  approximately  $3.1 million.  The loss is composed largely of the write-off of
  intangible assets associated with the Packet Switched product line.


3 DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

  The Company designs,  manufactures and markets a broad range of products, such
  as channel units,  repeaters and termination units, that are used by telephone
  companies  to provide  voice and data  services  over the  existing  telephone
  network,  primarily  in the Local Loop,  as well as a range of products  which
  provide  ISDN  and  protocol  interworking  solutions.  The  Company's  fiscal
  year-end is the last Saturday in July.



4 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


  PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

  The consolidated financial statements include the accounts and transactions of
  the  Company  and its wholly  owned  subsidiaries.  Intercompany  amounts  and
  transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Exchange rate fluctuations
  from translating the financial  statements of subsidiaries located outside the
  United  States into U.S.  dollars  are  recorded  in a separate  component  of
  stockholders'   equity.   All  other   foreign   exchange   gains  and  losses
  (approximately  a $0.1 million loss and a $0.7 million loss in fiscal 1999 and
  fiscal  1998,  respectively)  are included on the income  statement  under the
  caption "Other-net."

  CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

  The Company  considers all highly liquid  investments with a maturity of three
  months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.




<PAGE>




NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)



  MARKETABLE SECURITIES

  The Company invests in debt  instruments  from time to time with a maturity of
  greater than three months and less than or equal to one year.  Such securities
  are  classified  as  held-to-maturity,  as the  Company has the intent and the
  ability to hold these securities until maturity.  These securities are carried
  at amortized cost, which approximates fair value.

  INVENTORIES

  Inventories  are stated at the lower of cost,  as  determined by the first in,
  first out method, or market value.

  REVENUE RECOGNITION

  The Company recognizes revenue upon shipment of goods and transfer of title to
  customers.

  INCOME TAXES

  The Company accounts for income taxes using the liability method as required
  by Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB"), Statement of Financial
  Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes".
  PROPERTY, PLANT, EQUIPMENT AND LEASEHOLD IMPROVEMENTS

  Land,  buildings,  equipment and leasehold  improvements are recorded at cost.
  The  Company  uses  the  straightline  method  of  computing   provisions  for
  depreciation   and   amortization   of  property,   equipment   and  leasehold
  improvements.  Service  lives  for  principal  assets  are 35 to 39 years  for
  buildings and three to ten years for equipment and leasehold improvements.
  INTANGIBLE ASSETS

  Intangible  assets  represent  the  excess of  purchase  price over net assets
  acquired in  acquisitions  accounted for as a purchase.  At each balance sheet
  date,  the Company  evaluates  for  recognition  of potential  impairment  its
  recorded  intangible assets against its projected  undiscounted cash flows. If
  the evaluation  would  indicate such an impairment,  the Company would measure
  the  impairment  loss  using  discounted  cash  flows.  Intangible  assets are
  principally being amortized over 15 years.

     Intangible  assets reflect the fiscal 1999  disposition of those intangible
  assets related to the Packet Switched product line. In addition, the valuation
  allowance  related to net deferred tax assets  acquired in the  acquisition of
  Teltrend  Limited were reversed in fiscal 1999 with the offset  representing a
  reduction of recorded intangibles.

  RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

  Research  and  development   costs  are  expensed  when  incurred.   Purchased
  in-process  research  and  development  is  recognized  in  purchase  business
  combinations  for the portion of the purchase price allocated to the appraised
  value  of  in-process   technologies.   The  portion  assigned  to  in-process
  technologies excludes the value of core and developed technologies,  which are
  recognized as intangible assets.

  ADVERTISING

  All costs associated with  advertising and promoting  products are expensed in
  the period incurred.  Total advertising expenses were approximately  $253,000,
  $260,000  and   $116,000  in  fiscal  1999,   fiscal  1998  and  fiscal  1997,
  respectively.




<PAGE>


NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)



  USE OF ESTIMATES

  The preparation of financial  statements in conformity with generally accepted
  accounting  principles  requires  management to make estimates and assumptions
  that affect the amounts reported in the financial  statements and accompanying
  notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

  EARNINGS PER SHARE

  In January  1998,  the Company  adopted  SFAS No. 128,  "Earnings  Per Share,"
  requiring dual  presentation  of basic and diluted income per share ("EPS") on
  the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income
  by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.
  Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution from the exercise or conversion of
  securities,  such as stock  options  into  common  stock.  EPS amounts for all
  periods have been presented, and where necessary,  restated to conform to SFAS
  No. 128 requirements.

     The following  table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted income
  per share (in thousands of dollars, except per share data).

  STOCK OPTIONS

  Stock options are accounted for in accordance with Accounting Principles Board
  Opinion No. 25,  "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" ("APB #25"). Under
  APB #25, no compensation  expense is recognized when the exercise price of the
  option equals the fair value of the underlying stock on the grant date.
  COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

  In fiscal  1999,  the Company  adopted  FASB  Statement  No.  130,  "Reporting
  Comprehensive  Income."  Statement 130 establishes new rules for the reporting
  and  displaying  of  comprehensive  income and its  components;  however,  the
  adoption  of this  Statement  had no impact  on the  Company's  net  income or
  equity.  Statement 130 requires foreign currency translation adjustments to be
  included in accumulated other  comprehensive  income,  which prior to adoption
  were  reported  separately  in  stockholders'  equity.  Prior  year  financial
  statements have been  reclassified to conform to the requirements of Statement
  130.

  NEW PRONOUNCEMENTS

  In June 1998, the FASB issued  Statement No. 133,  "Accounting  for Derivative
  Instruments  and Hedging  Activities."  The  Statement  is not  required to be
  adopted until fiscal years beginning  after June 15, 2000.  Statement 133 will
  require the Company to recognize all derivatives on the  consolidated  balance
  sheet at fair value.  The Company  does not  anticipate  that the  adoption of
  Statement 133 will have a  significant  impact on its results of operations or
  financial position.

  RECLASSIFICATION
  Certain amounts in the fiscal 1998 and 1997 consolidated  financial statements
  have been reclassified to conform to fiscal 1999 presentations.


5 RETIREMENT INVESTMENT PLAN

  The Company  has a  defined-contribution  plan  covering  full- and  part-time
  personnel in the United States, who have a minimum of one-half year of service
  and have attained the age of 21.  Participants  may contribute  between 1% and
  15% of their annual compensation.  The Company also has a defined-contribution
  plan covering all permanent employees in the United Kingdom who have completed
  three months of service and are under the age of 65.  Participants  contribute
  4% of their annual compensation, and the Company contribution is determined on
  a scale  basis,  which is  dependent  on the age of the  participant.  Company
  contributions to its defined-contribution  plans were $789,000;  $620,000; and
  $349,000 for the years ended July 31, 1999,  July 25, 1998, and July 26, 1997,
  respectively.

8 CREDIT FACILITY

  In 1995,  the Company  entered into a credit  facility  (the "Bank  Facility")
  which  provides,  subject to  certain  restrictions,  up to $15  million on an
  unsecured basis for working capital financing.  As amended,  the Bank Facility
  will  expire on July 31,  2001  and,  as of July 31,  1999,  no  amounts  were
  outstanding.  Under the Bank  Facility  agreement,  dividends on the Company's
  Common  Stock are  restricted  so as not to exceed  50% of the  Company's  net
  income for the immediately preceding fiscal year.

9 COMMON STOCK OPTIONS

  The Company has a stock option plan (the "Plan") which  provided for the grant
  of both  incentive  stock options and  nonqualified  stock options to purchase
  shares of the class of Class A Common Stock of the Company  existing  prior to
  the  recapitalization of the Company in fiscal 1995 (the "Old Class A Stock").
  Unless the applicable  agreement  expressly  provided  otherwise,  each option
  granted under the Plan was exercisable as to 20% of the shares covered thereby
  immediately  upon grant and as to an additional  20% of such shares on each of
  the next four anniversaries of the date of grant.

     In fiscal 1994,  the Board of Directors  approved a resolution  to decrease
  the exercise price of all options  outstanding to the then-estimated  value of
  $.1643 per share from  $4.1077 per share.  All options  outstanding  under the
  Plan to purchase  Old Class A Stock were  converted  into  options to purchase
  shares of Common Stock, and the Company's Board of Directors  amended the Plan
  to provide  that no  additional  options  could be granted  thereunder  in the
  future.  As of July 31, 1999, there were 30,816 options  outstanding under the
  Plan.

     During June 1995,  the Company  adopted the Teltrend Inc. 1995 Stock Option
  Plan (the "1995  Stock  Option  Plan")  which  provides  for the grant of both
  incentive  stock  options in  accordance  with  Section  422A of the  Internal
  Revenue Code and  nonqualified  stock options.  A maximum of 440,000 shares of
  Common Stock may be issued in the  aggregate to key  employees of the Company.
  The  Compensation  Committee  of  the  Company's  Board  of  Directors,  which
  administers  the 1995  Stock  Option  Plan,  will  determine  when and to whom
  options will be granted.  Unless the applicable  agreement  expressly provides
  otherwise,  options shall become  exercisable  as to 25% of the shares covered
  thereby on the first  anniversary of the date of grant and as to an additional
  25% of such  shares  on each of the next  three  anniversaries  of the date of
  grant. As of July 31, 1999, there were 310,600 options  outstanding  under the
  1995 Stock Option Plan, all with an exercise price of $16 per share.

     During  September  1996,  the Company  adopted the Teltrend Inc. 1996 Stock
  Option Plan (the "1996 Stock  Option  Plan")  which  provides for the grant of
  both incentive  stock options in accordance  with Section 422A of the Internal
  Revenue Code and  nonqualified  stock options.  A maximum of 700,000 shares of
  Common Stock may be issued in the  aggregate to key  employees of the Company.
  The  Compensation  Committee  of  the  Company's  Board  of  Directors,  which
  administers  the 1996  Stock  Option  Plan,  will  determine  when and to whom
  options will be granted.  Unless the applicable  agreement  expressly provides
  otherwise,  options shall become  exercisable  as to 25% of the shares covered
  thereby on the first  anniversary of the date of grant and as to an additional
  25% of such  shares  on each of the next  three  anniversaries  of the date of
  grant. As of July 31, 1999, there were 420,671 options  outstanding  under the
  1996 Stock Option Plan with a range of exercise prices of $12.25 to $26.25 per
  share.

<PAGE>


NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)



     During   October  1997,   the  Company   adopted  the  Teltrend  Inc.  1997
  Non-Employee  Director  Stock Option Plan (the "1997  Director  Option Plan"),
  which  provides  for the grant of  nonqualified  stock  options.  A maximum of
  250,000 shares of Common Stock may be issued to  nonemployee  directors of the
  Company.

     Each  individual  elected as a director of the Company at the  December 11,
  1997 Annual  Meeting who qualified as a  non-employee  director was granted an
  option (an "Initial Option") to purchase UP TO 6,000 shares of Common Stock on
  the date of the Annual Meeting. Thereafter, each non-employee director who has
  not previously been granted an option under the 1997 Director Option Plan will
  receive an Initial  Option to purchase up to 6,000  shares of Common  Stock on
  the date of his or her  initial  election  to the  Board.  Additionally,  each
  continuing  non-employee  director  will be granted an  additional  option (an
  "Annual  Option")  to  purchase  up to 1,500  shares of  Common  Stock on each
  anniversary of the date his or her Initial Option was granted. Initial Options
  will generally  vest and become  exercisable as to 25% of the shares of Common
  Stock subject thereto on the first  anniversary of the date of grant and as to
  an  additional  25% of such Common Stock  subject  thereto on each of the next
  three anniversaries of the date of grant. All Annual Options granted under the
  1997 Director  Option Plan will generally  vest and become  exercisable on the
  first  anniversary of the date of grant thereof.  As of July 31, 1999,  45,000
  options were outstanding  under the 1997 Director Option Plan, with a range of
  exercise prices of $17.62 to $21.75.

     Transactions involving stock options granted under the Plan, the 1995 Stock
  Option Plan, the 1996 Stock Option Plan and the 1997 Director  Option Plan are

</TABLE>


     The weighted average remaining  contractual life of the options outstanding
  is 7.3 years.  Of the 807,087  stock  options  outstanding  at July 31,  1999,
  449,941 are currently  exercisable  with a weighted  average exercise price of
  $15.45.

     Pro forma  information  regarding  net  income  and  earnings  per share is
  required by SFAS No. 123,  "Accounting for Stock-Based  Compensation," and has
  been determined as if the Company had accounted for its employee stock options
  under the fair value method of that Statement. The fair value of these options
  was estimated at the date of grant using a  BlackScholes  option pricing model
  with the following weighted-average assumptions for fiscal 1999,




<PAGE>



NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)


fiscal 1998 and fiscal 1997:  risk-free  interest rate of 6.0 percent;  dividend
yields of 0.0 percent;  volatility  factors of the expected  market price of the
Company's   Common  stock  of  0.59,  0.34,  and  0.25,   respectively;   and  a
weighted-average expected life of the option of 6 years.

    The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in estimating
the fair value of traded  options  which have no  vesting  restrictions  and are
fully  transferable.  In addition,  option valuation models require the input of
highly  subjective  assumptions  including the expected stock price  volatility.
Because the Company's stock options have characteristics significantly different
from  those of traded  options,  and  because  changes in the  subjective  input
assumptions  can  materially  affect the fair value  estimate,  in  management's
opinion,  the  existing  models do not  necessarily  provide a  reliable  single
measure of the fair value of its stock options.
     The  weighted-average  fair value of options was $11.08 for options granted
in fiscal 1999,  $5.06 for options  granted in fiscal 1998 and $7.04 for options
granted in fiscal 1997.

     For  purposes of pro forma  disclosures,  the  estimated  fair value of the
options is amortized to expense over the options' vesting period.  The Company's
pro forma  information  follows  (in  thousands  except for  earnings  per share
information):

Diluted earnings per share - pro forma            $  1.02     $  0.13    $  1.31




     The pro forma effect on net income for fiscal 1999,  fiscal 1998 and fiscal
1997 is not representative of the pro forma effect on net income in future years
because  it does not take  into  consideration  pro forma  compensation  expense
related to grants made prior to fiscal 1997.


10 LEASE COMMITMENTS

The  Company  has  operating  leases  in  effect  for  vehicles,  equipment  and
facilities.  Lease  expense for the fiscal years ended July 31,  1999,  July 25,
1998,  and  July  26,  1997  totaled   $1,332,000;   $1,072,000;   and  $540,000
respectively.

     The  Company's  current  lease  agreement  for its domestic  main  facility
continues  through  September  30,  2000.  As of July 31,  1999,  the Company is
negotiating  to extend this lease  through  September  30,  2002.  The  expected
financial  impact of the lease  extension  upon the future  minimum annual lease
payments  shown below would be $0,  $456,000 and $565,000 for fiscal years 2000,
2001 and 2002 respectively.

     Future  minimum  annual  rental  payments  required  under the  leases  are
$1,637,000 as follows:

The capital  loss was  generated  on the  disposition  of the  Company's  Packet
Switched product line. The  carryforward  will expire in fiscal 2004. Due to the
uncertainty  of the  Company's  ability to utilize the  capital  loss within the
carryforward period, a valuation allowance has been provided.

     In fiscal 1999,  foreign losses before income taxes of $1.0 million reduced
consolidated  income  before  income  taxes to $11.5  million.  In fiscal  1998,
foreign losses before income taxes of $8.1 million reduced  consolidated  income
before income taxes to $6.5 million.


12  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

Under  purchase  contracts with various  vendors the Company has  commitments to
purchase raw materials  totaling  approximately  $5,530,000 at July 31, 1999 and
$8,986,000 at July 25, 1998.


13  SIGNIFICANT CUSTOMERS

Five customers represented:  23.7%, 19.2%, 14.9%, 10.7% and 7.1% of consolidated
net sales in 1999;  30.1%,  16.8%,  13.8%,  10.8% and 10.3% in fiscal 1998;  and
30.5%, 26.0%, 15.1%, 13.4% and 10.8% in fiscal 1997.

     At July 31, 1999, five customers  represented 16.3%,  13.5%, 8.3%, 8.2% and
6.9% of consolidated  accounts receivable,  and at July 25, 1998, five customers
represented  21.8%,  18.6%,  8.9%,  8.1  % and  6.7%  of  consolidated  accounts
receivable.

     During fiscal 1998 there were two mergers involving  significant  customers
of the Company.  Pacific Telesis Group merged with SBC Communications,  Inc. and
NYNEX merged with Bell  Atlantic  Corp.  The above  percentages  relating to the
Company's net sales and accounts receivable were computed,  for consistency,  as
if these mergers had been in effect for each of the years specified.

(1)  In the third  quarter of fiscal  1999 the Company  recorded a $1.3  million
     charge to recognize  the  impairment  of the Packet  Switched  product line
     assets acquired in the acquisition of Teltrend Limited. This charge reduced
     the carrying  value of the assets to be disposed of to fair value less cost
     to sell.

(2)  As  required  by  generally  accepted  accounting  principles,  the Company
     recorded  a $4.0  million  charge  immediately  after  the  acquisition  of
     Teltrend  Limited to write off the portion of the purchase price  allocated
     to in-process research and development.

15  SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company has adopted SFAS No. 131,  "Disclosures  about  Segments and Related
Information." The Company is managed in two operating  segments:  (i) the United
States; and (ii) Europe and the Far East.  Operations in Europe and the Far East
were  acquired in the first  quarter of fiscal 1998 as  disclosed  more fully in
Note  1,  "Basis  of  Presentation."  Therefore,  segment  disclosures  are  not
applicable for fiscal year 1997.

     The  accounting  policies of the  operating  segments are the same as those
described in Note 3, "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies."  Intersegment
sales are not  significant.  Revenues are  attributed to geographic  areas based
upon the location of the areas producing the revenues.

taxes in the Europe and the Far East  segment for fiscal 1999 is a $1.3  million
charge for the loss on the disposition of the Company's  Packet Switched product

16  RIGHTS PLAN

On January 16, 1997,  the Board of Directors of the Company  declared a dividend
of one preferred share purchase right (a "Right") for each outstanding  share of
Common Stock of the Company. The dividend was payable on January 27, 1997 to the
holders of record of the Common  Stock as of the close of business on that date.
Each Right  entitles the registered  holder to purchase from the Company,  under
certain  circumstances  involving the  acquisition  or the  announcement  of the
intent to acquire 20% or more of the Company's Common Stock,  one  one-hundredth
of a share of Series A Junior Participating  Preferred Stock, par value $.01 per
share,  of the  Company  (the  "Preferred  Stock") at a price of $160.00 per one
one-hundredth  of a  share  of  Preferred  Stock,  subject  to  adjustment.  The
description  and terms of the Rights are set forth in a Rights  Agreement  dated
January  16,  1997,  as amended on June 1, 1998,  and as the same may be further
amended from time to time,  between the Company and LaSalle  National  Bank,  as
Rights Agent.

     The Company has not paid any cash  dividends  since 1988.  The terms of the
Bank Facility  prohibit the Company from declaring and paying in any fiscal year
dividends  which exceed,  in the aggregate,  50% of the Company's net income for
the immediately preceding fiscal year. Otherwise, the declaration and payment of
dividends  will be at the  sole  discretion  of the  Board of  Directors  of the
Company and subject to certain  limitations under the General Corporation Law of
the State of Delaware.  The timing,  amount and form of dividends,  if any, will
depend,  among other things, on the Company's  results of operations,  financial
condition,  cash  requirements,  plans for expansion  and other  factors  deemed
relevant by the Board of Directors.  The Company does not anticipate  paying any
cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                   ------------------------------------------
                                   (Unaudited)


I.       BASIS OF PRESENTATION

                  The  unaudited   consolidated  financial  statements  included
         herein have been prepared by Teltrend Inc.  ("Teltrend")  in accordance
         with generally  accepted  accounting  principles for interim  financial
         information  and Article 10 of  Regulation  S-X,  and should be read in
         conjunction  with Teltrend's  financial  statements (and notes thereto)
         included in the Teltrend  Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
         July 31, 1999.  The  accompanying  statements do not include all of the
         information  and footnotes  required by generally  accepted  accounting
         principles  for  complete  financial  statements.  In  the  opinion  of
         Teltrend's management,  all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring
         accruals)  considered  necessary  for a  fair  presentation  have  been
         included.  Operating  results  for the  quarter  and six  months  ended
         January 29, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may
         be expected for the fiscal year ending July 29,  2000.  The fiscal year
         of  Teltrend  and  its  consolidated  subsidiary   (collectively,   the
         "Company")  ends on the last Saturday of July each year. All references
         to "fiscal"  years in this report  refer to fiscal  years ending in the
         calendar year indicated (e.g.,  "fiscal 1999" refers to the fiscal year
         ended July 31, 1999 and "fiscal  2000" refers to the fiscal year ending
         July 29, 2000). Fiscal 1999 had 53 weeks and fiscal 2000 has 52 weeks.


II.      MARKETABLE SECURITIES

                  At January 29, 2000, the Company had marketable  securities of
         approximately  $8.8  million.   These  securities   consisted  of  debt
         instruments with maturities greater than three months but less than one
         year and are  classified  as  held-to-maturity,  as the Company has the
         positive  intent  and  the  ability  to  hold  these  securities  until
         maturity.  These  securities  are carried at amortized  cost,  which at
         January 29, 2000  approximates fair value.  Temporary  unrealized gains
         and losses will not be  recognized in the  financial  statements  until
         realized.

         Zealand and China in fiscal 1999. Interest income is earned principally

VII.     DISPOSITION OF PACKET SWITCHED BUSINESS


                  On May 28,  1999,  the Company sold  substantially  all of the
         assets of its Packet Switched  business to Centrecom Systems Limited of
         England for approximately  $3.1 million.  A loss of approximately  $1.3
         million was recorded in fiscal 1999. This amount included the estimated
         value of the intangible  assets to be written off  associated  with the
         Packet Switched business, together with an estimate of the professional
         fees and inventory and other asset valuation  reserves  associated with
         the sale. In the second quarter of fiscal 2000, it was determined  that
         certain estimated reserves established for the disposition would not be
         necessary.  As such,  approximately  $0.5 million of the original  $1.3
         million  estimated  loss reversed into income in the Europe and the Far
         East segment.


VIII.    PROPOSED ACQUISITION BY WESTELL TECHNOLOGIES

("Westell")  announced  the proposed  merger of a subsidiary of Westell with and
into the Company.  In the proposed  merger,  stockholders of the Company will be
entitled to receive 3.3 shares of Westell Class A common stock for each share of
the Company's common stock,  subject to provisions  regarding payment of cash in
lieu of fractional shares. The transaction is expected to be accounted for using
purchase accounting and to qualify as a tax-free reorganization.  The merger and
certain  related  matters have been  approved by the Boards of Directors of both
companies  and will require the  approval of both the  Company's  and  Westell's
stockholders.  Special  meetings of the  stockholders of the Company and Westell
have been scheduled for March 16, 1999 to consider  these  matters.  The waiting
period for the merger  under the  Hart-Scott-Rodino  Act  expired on February 2,
2000. The merger is,  however,  subject to other  customary  conditions.  If the
merger is  consummated,  the Company  will become a wholly owned  subsidiary  of
Westell and will cease to be a publicly traded company.


                              WESTELL AND TELTREND
            UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL DATA


         The following  unaudited  pro forma  condensed  consolidated  financial
statements  give effect to the  acquisition  of  Teltrend  by Westell  under the
purchase method of accounting as defined in APB Opinion No. 16.

         The  purchase  price of Teltrend  included in this Form 8-K varies from
that previously  reported.  The pro forma financial  statements  included herein
reflect a purchase  price for  Teltrend  which is based upon the  exchange  rate
agreed to by the  parties and the per share  value of  Westell's  Class A Common
Stock as of a range of dates  surrounding the  announcement of the  transaction,
which  occurred on December  13,  1999.  These  amounts will be reflected in the
financial statements of Westell as of and for the year ended March 31, 2000.

         When  reviewing the following  pro forma  information,  you should note
that:

         o    the pro forma condensed  consolidated balance sheet as of December
              31, 1999  assumes  that the merger took place on December 31, 1999
              and combines  Westell's  December 31, 1999 unaudited  consolidated
              balance  sheet  with   Teltrend's   January  29,  2000   unaudited
              consolidated balance sheet;

         o    the pro forma condensed  consolidated  statement of operations for
              the fiscal year ended March 31, 1999 assumes the merger took place
              as of April 1, 1998, and combines Westell's consolidated statement
              of  operations  for its  fiscal  year  ended  March 31,  1999 with
              Teltrend's unaudited  consolidated statement of operations for the
              comparable twelve month period ending May 1, 1999; and

         o    the pro forma condensed  consolidated  statement of operations for
              the nine month  period  ended  December  31, 1999 assumes that the
              merger took place as of April 1, 1999,  and combines the unaudited
              consolidated statement of operations of Westell for the nine month
              period  ending  December  31,  1999  with   Teltrend's   unaudited
              consolidated statement of operations for the comparable nine month
              period ending January 29, 2000.

         The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial data have been
included for illustrative purposes only, and do not reflect any cost savings and
other synergies anticipated by Westell's management as a result of the merger or
any nonrecurring charges directly  attributable to the merger. The unaudited pro
forma condensed  consolidated  financial data are not necessarily  indicative of
the results of operations or financial position that would have occurred had the
merger  been  completed  on  the  dates  indicated,  nor  are  they  necessarily
indicative  of  future  results  of  operations  or  financial  position  of the
consolidated company.

         The purchase price  reflected in the  accompanying  pro forma condensed
consolidated  financial data has been calculated  based upon a fair market value
of  Westell's  Class A Common  Stock of $10.575  per share which was the average
closing price for the period from December 8, 1999 to December 14, 1999.

         The  acquired  assets and  liabilities  of  Teltrend  are stated in the
accompanying  pro forma condensed  consolidated  financial  statements at values
representing  a  preliminary  allocation  of  the  purchase  price.  Westell  is
currently  in  the  process  of  finalizing  valuations  for  the  tangible  and
intangible assets of Teltrend. The effects resulting from any differences in the
final  allocation  of the  purchase  price  may  differ  significantly  from the
estimates used herein.

         The  accompanying pro forma  information  should be read in conjunction
with the historical  financial statements and related notes for both Westell and
Teltrend,  which are included in their annual and quarterly reports on file with
the SEC.

                          NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA
                      CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL DATA

NOTE 1-- PURCHASE PRICE ALLOCATION

         The purchase price for the acquisition was $238.2 million, based upon a
fair market value of  Westell's  Class A Common Stock of $10.575 per share which
was the average  closing  price for the period from December 8, 1999 to December
14, 1999,  and the issuance of 20.196  million  shares of Westell Class A Common
Stock in exchange for all shares of Teltrend common stock,  plus the fair market
value of the 2.0  million  Westell  stock  options  issued in  exchange  for the
outstanding Teltrend stock options.

       The  acquired  assets  and  liabilities  of  Teltrend  are  stated in the
accompanying  pro forma condensed  consolidated  financial  statements at values
representing  a  preliminary  allocation  of  the  purchase  price.  Westell  is
currently  in  the  process  of  finalizing  valuations  for  the  tangible  and
intangible assets of Teltrend. The effects resulting from any differences in the
final  allocation  of the  purchase  price  may  differ  significantly  from the
estimates used herein.

      Total purchase  consideration  and allocation of increase in basis used in
the preparation of these statements was computed as follows:

NOTE 2-- PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS

         Certain pro forma adjustments have been made to the historical  amounts
in the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial data:

a)    Total costs  associated with the merger are estimated to be  approximately
      $8.1  million.  Costs to be incurred by Westell and Teltrend in connection
      with the merger include investment  banking,  legal,  accounting and other
      related fees,  and have been reflected in the  accompanying  unaudited pro
      forma condensed consolidated balance sheet as a reduction to cash.

b)    Reflects  (i) the  issuance of 20.196  million  shares of Westell  Class A
      Common  Stock in exchange  for all shares of Teltrend  common  stock based
      upon an exchange  ratio of 3.3 shares of Westell  Class A Common Stock for
      each share of Teltrend  common stock at an estimated  fair market value of
      $10.575 per share of Westell Class A Common Stock and (ii) the fair market
      value of 2.0 million  Westell  stock  options  issued in exchange  for the
      outstanding  Teltrend  stock  options.  Also reflects the  elimination  of
      Teltrend equity accounts.


<PAGE>

c)    Adjustment  to record  inventory  and property and  equipment to estimated
      fair market value, less selling costs.

d)    Excess  of  purchase  price   consideration  over  fair  market  value  of
      identifiable tangible and intangible assets.

e)    Estimated severance costs that will be accrued at the acquisition date and
      paid over the following year.

f)    Additional  depreciation  as a result  of the  increase  of  property  and
      equipment to fair market value.

g)    Amortization  of goodwill and  intangibles on a  straight-line  basis over
      2-15 year lives.

h)    Elimination of tax provision recorded due to the combined entity operating
      at a pro forma loss. All tax benefit is offset by a valuation allowance in
      pro forma analysis.

i)    The calculation of weighted  average common and common  equivalent  shares
      uses an exchange  ratio of 3.3 shares of Westell  Class A Common Stock for
      each share of Teltrend common stock.  Common  equivalent shares consist of
      dilutive  shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options and have been
      excluded from the calculation, as their effect would be anti-dilutive.
