                        ONTRACK DATA INTERNATIONAL, INC.

              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (UNAUDITED)

1.       ORGANIZATION

         ONTRACK Data International, Inc. (the "Company"), a leading provider of
         data availability software and service solutions, helps customers
         protect, manage, recover and discover their valuable data. The
         Company's headquarters are in Eden Prairie, Minnesota, and it has
         offices in Los Angeles, California; Washington, D.C.; New York, New
         York; Boulder, Colorado; London, England; Stuttgart, Germany and Paris,
         France.

2.       SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

         BASIS OF PRESENTATION

         The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
         have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
         Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote
         disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared
         in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been
         condensed or omitted as permitted by such rules and regulations. These
         financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction
         with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the
         Company's audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended
         December 31, 1999 contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K
         for 1999.

         In the opinion of management, the interim financial statements reflect
         adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, which are
         necessary to present fairly the Company's financial position, results
         of operations and cash flow for the periods indicated. The results of
         operations for the three months ended March 31, 2000 are not
         necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

         NET INCOME PER SHARE

         Basic net income per share includes no dilution and is computed by
         dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted
         average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net
         income per share reflects the potential dilution of securities that
         could share in the net income of the Company. The difference between
         the Company's basic and diluted net income per share data as presented
         is due to the dilutive impact from stock options whose exercise price
         was below the average common stock price for the respective period
         presented.

         COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

         The components of comprehensive income for the three months ended March
         31, 2000 and 1999 are foreign currency translation adjustments.
         Comprehensive income is not separately reported, as amounts were not
         significant.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


COMPARISON OF FIRST QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 2000 AND 1999

REVENUES

DATA RECOVERY SERVICES AND PRODUCTS:

Data recovery services and products revenues for the first quarter of 2000
increased 23% compared to the first quarter of 1999. Data recovery services and
products revenues consist of the following:

                                              Three Months
                                            Ended March 31
                                         --------------------
                                           2000        1999      % Increase
                                         --------    --------    ----------
                                        (Amounts in thousands)

In-lab recovery services                 $  6,404    $  6,096             5%
Remote recovery services                      761         322           136%
Do-it-yourself data recovery software         593         333            78%
Electronic Information Management           1,051         400           163%
                                         --------    --------    ----------
     Total                               $  8,809    $  7,151            23%
                                         ========    ========    ==========


The increase in Remote Recovery services is due to the Company's increased data
recovery capabilities to work with customers' large server based storage devices
over a modem or through the internet. The increase in Do-it-yourself data
recovery software is due principally to better market awareness as the product
was introduced in the first quarter of 1999. The increase in Electronic
Information Management is due to an increase in merger and acquisition discovery
projects as well as increased awareness of our capabilities through expanded
sales and marketing activities.

SOFTWARE:

Software revenues for the first quarter of 2000 increased 136%, or $1.7 million,
compared to the first quarter of 1999. The increase is principally due to $1.9
million of sales of retail software utility products by the Company's Boulder
division.

GROSS MARGINS

DATA RECOVERY SERVICES AND PRODUCTS:

Gross margins on data recovery services and products revenues for the first
quarter ended March 31, 2000 was 77%, compared to 74% for the comparable period
of 1999. The increase is due to the Company's more favorable mix of new higher
margin services, remote data recovery and Electronic Information Management.


                                       7
<PAGE>


SOFTWARE:

Gross margins on software revenues for the first quarter ended March 31, 2000
was 70%, compared to 81% for the comparable period of 1999. As revenues from the
Boulder division products make up a larger portion of software revenues,
software gross margins have declined to their expected level.

OPERATING EXPENSES

SALES AND MARKETING:

Sales and marketing expenses for the first quarter of 2000 increased 42%
compared to the first quarter of 1999. As a percentage of revenues, sales and
marketing expenses were 27% and 26% for the first quarter ended March 31, 2000
and 1999, respectively. The increases are due to the activities of the Boulder
division and investments made in Electronic Information Management and
RapidRecall(TM), the Company's online backup product.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT:

Research and development expenses for the first quarter of 2000 increased 51%
compared to the first quarter of 1999. As a percentage of revenues, research and
development expenses were 18% and 17% for the first quarter ended March 31, 2000
and 1999, respectively. The increases are due primarily to research and
development expenditures incurred by the Boulder division and investments in new
data recovery and backup tools and technology.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE:

General and administrative expenses for the first quarter of 2000 increased 31%
compared to the first quarter of 1999. The increase is due mainly to the
expenses of the Boulder division. As a percentage of revenues, general and
administrative expenses were 18% and 19% for the first quarter ended March 31,
2000 and 1999, respectively. The decline in percentage is due to such expenses
not increasing proportionately to increases in revenues.

GOODWILL

Goodwill relates to the Company's Boulder division acquisition, which develops,
markets, and supports computer software utility products to enhance performance
of personal computers. Goodwill is being amortized on a straight-line basis over
a period of 60 months.

TERMINATED MERGER COSTS

In November 1999, the Company agreed to be acquired by Legato Systems, Inc. In
January 2000, the merger agreement was terminated. The Company's expenses
related to the merger totaled $675,000 and were treated as operating expenses in
the fourth quarter 1999. In the first quarter ended March 31, 2000, $579,000 was
reimbursed by Legato Systems, Inc. and treated as a reduction of operating
expenses in the Company's income statement.

PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES

For the first quarter ended March 31, 2000 and 1999, the Company provided for
taxes at effective rates of 31% and 32%, respectively. The effective rate is
lower than the statutory rate because of the impact of tax-exempt interest
income earned on investments and research and development credits.


NET INCOME PER SHARE

The changes in basic and diluted net income per share for the first quarter
ended March 31, 2000 and 1999 are due to changes in net income.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Net cash flow from operations was ($204,000) and $21,000 for the three months
ended March 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Cash used in investment activities
was primarily for the purchase of furniture and equipment.

Net cash flow from operations before changes in operating assets and liabilities
was $2.6 million in the first quarter of 2000 compared to $1.6 million in the
first quarter of 1999.

The Company has invested its cash principally in high-grade taxable and tax
exempt government securities. As of March 31, 2000 $1.0 million is classified as
long-term, with the remaining $30.2 million classified as cash and cash
equivalents or short-term marketable securities.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Information included in this Form 10-Q, in Ontrack's Annual Report, in future
filings with the SEC and in Ontrack's press releases, which uses forward-looking
terminology such as "may," "will," "expect," "plan," "intend," "anticipate,"
"estimate," or "continue" or other variations thereon constitutes
forward-looking information. The factors set forth below and other risk factors
described elsewhere in this Form 10-Q, in Ontrack's Annual Report, in future
filings with the SEC and in Ontrack's press releases constitute cautionary
statements identifying important factors with respect to such forward looking
statements, including certain risks and uncertainties, that could cause actual
results to differ materially from those in such forward-looking statements: (1)
the computer industry is characterized by rapid technological changes and
frequent introductions of new enhanced products and Ontrack must constantly
adapt its data recovery techniques, its data recovery hardware and software
tools and its commercial software products to keep pace with these technological
changes; (2) Ontrack intends to invest in product development, joint ventures,
acquisitions and other projects to enhance its revenues, and there is no
assurance that these projects will yield the desired growth in revenues and
earnings; (3) future technological developments in computer operating systems,
automatic data backup systems and other data protection techniques have the
potential to eliminate or reduce the risk of data loss; (4) Ontrack's software
revenues depend on disk drive shipments by OEM's; trends in the disk drive
industry; and the risks inherent in the retail product markets (including
product returns and changing customer demands), which Ontrack cannot control;
(5) Ontrack has introduced and intends to introduce new products (such as
RapidRecall(TM)) and there can be no assurance of market acceptance of any such
product; and (6) Ontrack depends to a large degree on its ability to attract and
retain technical personnel.
