ITEM 7. PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION AND EXHIBITS.
(b) Pro Forma Financial Information.
The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated
balance sheet at June 30, 1998 and the unaudited pro forma condensed
consolidated statements of operations data for the nine months ended
June 30, 1998 and the fisca year ended September 30, 1997, give pro
forma effect to the estimated financial impact of the sale of the
Registrant's Farallon LAN Division (the "LAN Division") to Farallon
Networking Corporation (the "Buyer"), an affiliate of Gores
Technology Group, on August 5, 1998. The pro forma condensed
consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 1998 gives pro forma effect to
the sale of the LAN Division as if the transaction was consummated on
June 30, 1998. The pro forma condensed consolidated statements of
operations data for the nine months ended June 30, 1998 and the
fiscal year ended September 30, 1997, give pro forma effect to the
sale of the LAN Division as if the transaction was consummated as of
the beginning of the respective periods presented.
The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial
statements are based on the historical consolidated financial
statements of the Company giving effect to the assumptions and
adjustments set forth in the following notes. The overall assumption
has been made that the effect of the sale of the LAN Division would
have been to transfer the LAN Division's products, operating
activities and associated revenues, assets (excluding cash and tax
benefits) and liabilities as well as the related operating expenses,
from the Registrant to the Buyer. The Registrant would have retained
products, operating activities and associated revenues, assets and
liabilities, as well as any operating expenses, related to its
Netopia Internet Connectivity hardware products and its Timbuktu Pro
and Netopia Virtual Office software products (the "Internet
Division").
The unaudited pro forma condensed financial data have been
prepared by Company management for informational purposes only and
are not necessarily indicative of how the Company's balance sheet and
operating results would have been presented had the transaction as
set forth in the Agreement of Purchase and Sale of Assets, dated
August 5, 1998 (the "Agreement"), by and between the Registrant and
Farallon Networking Corporation, been consummated on the assumed
dates, nor are they necessarily indicative of the presentation of the
Company's balance sheet and statement of operations for any future
period.

(a) The Company will receive consideration of $3.0 million on the Closing Date.
The consideration will be in the form of $2.0 million in cash and a
Promissory Note for $1.0 million payable on July 31, 2000 bearing interest
at 8% per annum. The value of the note has been present valued at a rate of
15%, the assumed fair market rate of interest for a similar financial
instrument. Additionally, the Company will receive royalties based upon the
LAN Division's annual revenues over each of the next five fiscal years
ending on July 31, 2003. The royalties
<PAGE>
to be received are based on the following schedule:
LAN REVENUE ROYALTY RATE
------------------ ------------------
(in thousands)
$0 - $15,000 0.0%
$15,001 - $16,000 1.5%
$16,001 - $17,000 2.5%
greater than $17,000 5.0%
The value of the royalties accrued at the close of the transaction is based
upon the present value of the Company's assumptions as to the projected
future revenue of the LAN Division. Royalties accrued; however, have not
been recorded to the extent that total consideration on the transaction
exceeds the net asset value of the LAN Division assets being sold.
These pro forma calculations assume that the transaction was consummated on
June 30, 1998, and therefore the purchase price would have been reduced
based upon the difference between the net book value of the LAN Division at
that time and $4.9 million, which represents the estimated net book value
of the LAN Division on March 31, 1998. As stipulated by the Agreement, the
adjustment to the purchase price is made to the cash payment on a dollar
for dollar basis (see note (e)).
As stipulated in the agreement, the Company received and valued warrants to
purchase up to 5% of the equity of the Buyer as of the closing of the
transaction.
(b) As stipulated in the Agreement, the Buyer will purchase all of the
Company's current assets related to the LAN Division with the exception of
cash, tax assets, assets related to the Internet Division and certain
corporate assets. This adjustment represents the net value of those assets
which would have been transferred to the Buyer.
(c) This adjustment represents the estimated valuation allowance which would
have been recorded against the Company's deferred tax assets. As a result
of the sale of the LAN Division, certain tax planning strategies and other
tax attributes no longer support the full valuation of the Company's
deferred tax assets.
(d) As stipulated in the agreement, the Buyer will purchase all of the
furniture, fixtures and equipment and other assets associated with the LAN
Division. This adjustment represents the net value of those assets which
would have been transferred to the Buyer.
(e) As stipulated in the Agreement, the Buyer will assume all of the Company's
Accounts Payable related to its LAN Division. This adjustment represents a
reduction for the value of the accrued and other portions of those payables
which would have been assumed by the Buyer net of an adjustment of $3.0
million for estimated expenses related to the sale transaction and an
estimated amount payable to the Buyer of $165,000, which represents the
difference between the book value of the LAN Division on the transaction
date and the estimated book value of the LAN Division at March 31, 1998
(see note (a)).
(f) As stipulated in the Agreement, the Buyer will assume all of the Company's
liabilities related to its LAN Division employees and other associated
liabilities. This adjustment represents the net value of the accrued and
other portions of those liabilities which would have been assumed by the
Buyer.
(g) This adjustment represents the loss on the sale of the LAN Division,
including the valuation allowance which would have been recorded against
the Company's deferred tax assets. The actual amount of loss will not be
determined until after the actual Closing date and will be accounted for in
the Company's fiscal fourth quarter.
