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.

(a) This adjustment represents the LAN Division's revenues, cost of revenues and
    associated operating expenses.


(b) This adjustment represents the estimated valuation allowance which would
    have been recorded against the Company's
<PAGE>

    Internet Division 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 existing deferred tax assets.

(c) This adjustment represents the estimated valuation allowance which would
    have been recorded against deferred tax assets generated by the LAN
    Division, the operating results of the LAN Division, as well as the
    estimated gain/loss on the disposal, including transaction expenses incurred
    and accrued as a result of the sale of the LAN Division. Such expenses are
    directly attributable to the sale transaction and are primarily related to
    reserves taken against the lease of the Company's Alameda, California
    headquarters, investment advisory, legal and accounting fees and certain
    expenses related to employees of the LAN Division.

(a)  This adjustment represents the LAN Division's revenues, cost of revenues
     and associated operating expenses.

(b)  This adjustment represents the valuation allowance which would have been
     recorded against the Company's Internet Division deferred tax assets. As a
     result of the sale of the LAN Division, certain tax planning strategies
<PAGE>
     and other tax attributes no longer support the full valuation of the 
     existing deferred tax assets

(c) This adjustment represents the estimated valuation allowance which would
    have been recorded against deferred tax assets generated by the LAN
    Division, the operating results of the LAN Division, as well as the
    estimated gain/loss on the disposal, including transaction expenses incurred
    and accrued as a result of the sale of the LAN Division. Such expenses are
    directly attributable to the sale transaction and are primarily related to
    reserves taken against the lease of the Company's Alameda, California
    headquarters, investment advisory, legal and accounting fees and certain
    expenses related to employees of the LAN Division.
