ITEM 7.  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND EXHIBITS.



                        INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
                                        


The Board of Directors
Rogue Wave Software, Inc.:

     We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Rogue
Wave Software, Inc. and subsidiaries as of September 30, 1996 and 1997, and
the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity, and
cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended September 30,
1997. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the
Company's management. our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We did not audit the
financial statements of Stingray Software, Inc. (Stingray), a wholly-owned
subsidiary acquired on February 28, 1998 in a business combination accounted
for as a pooling of interests, which statements reflect total assets
constituting 3.4 percent in 1996 and 3.7 percent in 1997 and total revenue
constituting 6.9 percent in 1996 and 13.1 percent in 1997 of the related
consolidated totals. Those statements were audited by other auditors whose
report has been furnished to us, and our opinion, in so far as it relates to
the amounts included for Stingray, is based solely on the report of the other
auditors.

     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 and the report of the other auditors provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

     In our opinion, based on our audits and the report of the other auditors,
the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of Rogue Wave Software, Inc. and
subsidiaries as of September 30, 1996 and 1997, and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period
ended September 30, 1997 in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

(1)  DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Description of Business

     Rogue Wave Software, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") is primarily
engaged in the development, sale and support of object-oriented software parts
and related tools. The Company markets its products primarily through its direct
sales organization and, to a lesser extent, through outside sales
representatives and indirect channel partners to business and government
customers. The Company operates in a single industry segment across
geographically diverse markets.

Basis of Presentation

     The Company acquired all of the common stock of Stingray Software, Inc.
(Stingray) on February 28, 1998 in exchange for 1,652 shares of the Company's
common stock in a transaction accounted for as a pooling of interests (see Note
2). The Company's consolidated financial statements and notes to consolidated
financial statements have been restated for all periods presented to combine the
financial position, results of operations and cash flows of Stingray with those
of the Company. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
the Company and its other wholly-owned subsidiaries as of and for the years
ended September 30, and the accounts of Stingray as of and for the years ended
December 31. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Currency Translation

     The Company translates the assets and liabilities of its non-U.S.
functional currency subsidiaries into dollars at the rates of exchange in effect
at the end of the period. Revenue and expenses are translated using rates that
approximate those in effect during the period. Gains and losses from currency
translation are included in stockholders' equity in the consolidated balance
sheets.

Cash Equivalents and Short-Term Investments

     Cash equivalents consist of investments in highly liquid investment
instruments with original maturities of less than three months at date of
acquisition. Short-term investments consist primarily of commercial paper with
acquired maturities of 180 days or less.  Short-term investments are held as
securities available for sale and are carried at their market value as of the
balance sheet date, which approximated cost.   At September 30, 1997, there was
$300 of cash restricted for various purposes.

Furniture, Fixtures and Equipment

     Furniture, fixtures and equipment are stated at cost. Maintenance and
repairs are expensed as incurred. Equipment under capital leases is stated at
the present value of future minimum lease payments at the inception of the
lease.  Depreciation of furniture, fixtures and equipment is calculated on the
straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of 

                                      F-8
<PAGE>
 
the assets ranging from three to seven years. Equipment held under capital
leases is amortized straight-line over the shorter of the lease term or
estimated useful lives of the leased assets.

Intangible Assets

     Other noncurrent assets include purchased software rights, a covenant not
to compete and goodwill, which are amortized over estimated useful lives of
three to five years using the straight-line method. Original cost of these
intangibles was $671 and $2.8 million at September 30, 1996 and 1997
respectively. Accumulated amortization at September 30, 1996 and 1997 was $562
and $962, respectively. Amortization charged to expense was $224,  $221 and $400
for the years ended September 30, 1995, 1996 and 1997, respectively.

Foreign Exchange Contracts

     The Company enters into foreign exchange forward contracts to hedge certain
operational and balance sheet exposures from changes in foreign currency
exchange rates.  Such exposures result from the portion of the Company's
operations, assets, and liabilities that are denominated in currencies other
than the U.S. dollar.  These transactions are entered into to hedge purchases,
sales, and other normal recurring transactions and accordingly are not
speculative in nature.  The Company does not hold or issue financial instruments
for trading purposes nor does it hold or issue leveraged derivative financial
instruments.  Market value gains and losses on such contracts that result from
fluctuations in foreign exchange rates are recognized as offsets to the exchange
gains or losses on the hedged transactions.  By their nature, these transactions
generally offset.  The net gain or loss on such foreign currency contracts and
underlying transactions was not material during 1997.  The Company had
outstanding short-term forward exchange contracts to exchange German marks for
U.S. dollars in the amount of  $1.1 million at September 30, 1997.

Revenue Recognition

     License revenue is recognized at the time of shipment. License revenue
includes a limited initial term of maintenance, the cost of which is
insignificant.  Maintenance and service revenue includes maintenance revenue
which is recognized ratably over the maintenance period and service revenue
which includes training and consulting services recognized as services are
performed. The Company generally provides a thirty-day right of return policy
for software sales. The allowance for returns was $113 and $230 at September 30,
1996 and September 30, 1997, respectively.

Advertising costs

     Advertising costs are charged to expense when incurred.

Concentration of Credit Risk

     Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to
concentrations of credit risk consist principally of  cash equivalents, short
term investments, and accounts receivable. The counter parties to the agreements
relating to the Company's cash equivalents and short term investments consist of
various major corporations and financial institutions of high credit standing.
The Company's receivables are derived primarily from the sales of software
products and services to customers in diversified industries as well as
distributors in the U.S. and foreign markets.  International revenue accounted
for approximately 20%, 21%, and 24% of the Company's total revenue for the years
ended September 30, 1995, 1996, and 1997, respectively.  The Company performs
ongoing credit evaluations of its customers' financial condition and limits the
amount of credit extended when deemed necessary but generally requires no
collateral. The Company provided allowance for doubtful accounts of $114 and
$258 at September 30, 1996 and 1997, respectively.

Research and Development

     Software development costs have been accounted for in accordance with
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 86, Accounting for the Costs of
Computer Software to be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed. Under the standard,
capitalization of software development costs begins upon the establishment of
technological feasibility, subject to 

                                      F-9
<PAGE>
 
net realizable value considerations. The Company begins capitalization upon
completion of a working model. To date, such capitalizable costs have not been
material. Accordingly, the Company has charged all such costs to product
development expense.

Computation of Net Income Per Share

          Income (loss) per share is presented in accordance with the provisions
of `Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, Earnings Per Share
(SFAS 128).  SFAS 128 replaced the presentation of primary and fully diluted
earnings (loss) per share (EPS), with a presentation of basic EPS and diluted
EPS.  Under SFAS 128, basic EPS excludes dilution for potential common shares
and is computed by dividing income or loss available to common shareholders by
the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period.
Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or
other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common
stock and resulted in the issuance of common stock.

Pro Forma Net Income

     To properly reflect the Company's pro forma net income, the net income of
Stingray which was not subject to income taxes due to their S corporation
status, has been tax effected and included as a pro forma adjustment to income
tax expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.  This
adjustment was computed as if Stingray had been a taxable entity subject to
federal and state income taxes for all periods presented at the marginal tax
rates applicable in such periods.

Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation

     The Company has elected to account for its stock-based compensation in
accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock
Issued to Employees ("APB 25") and has adopted the "disclosure only" alternative
described in SFAS 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.

(2)  MERGERS AND ACQUISITIONS

     On October 27, 1995, the Company acquired all of the common stock of Inmark
Development Corporation ("Inmark") in exchange for 878 shares of the Company's
common stock in a transaction accounted for as a pooling of interests. Inmark
was a privately held corporation specializing in the development, distribution
and support of object-oriented graphical user interface library software. The
Company's consolidated financial statements and notes to consolidated financial
statements have been restated to include the results of Inmark for all periods
presented.

     On February 15, 1997, the Company  acquired 100% of the outstanding stock
of PVI Precision Software GmbH ("Precision") for $1.9 million in cash and notes
payable.  Precision is a European distributor of Rogue Wave software products
and other companies' software products in Germany, the United Kingdom, France,
and the Benelux countries.  The acquisition has been accounted for under the
purchase method and accordingly, the accompanying consolidated financial
statements include Precision's results beginning with the acquisition date.
Consolidated pro forma results of operations as if the acquisition had occurred
at the beginning of the fiscal years 1995, 1996, and 1997 are not presented as
the pro forma effect is not material.

     As discussed in note 1, on February 28, 1998, the Company acquired 100% of
the outstanding stock of Stingray Software, Inc. (Stingray) in exchange for
1,652 shares of the Company's common stock in a transaction accounted for as a
pooling of interests.  Stingray was a privately held corporation  which develops
and distributes object oriented developer tools for Windows software
programmers.

     At September 30, 1997, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards for
federal, state and foreign income tax purposes of $266, $119 and $1,544,
respectively. The federal net operating loss expires 2007 to 2010 and the state
net operating loss expires in 2000. The Company also had $288 of tax credit
carryforwards that expire 2003 to 2012. The net federal and state operating
losses and $86 of the tax credit carryforwards were generated by Inmark prior to
Inmark's merger with the Company on October 27, 1995. As a result, utilization
of all such amounts are limited by the future taxable income of Inmark.
Utilization of the acquired foreign net operating loss carryforwards will first
be offset against goodwill associated with the acquisition of Precision before
being recorded as a tax benefit.

(7)  STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

Initial Public Offering

     On November 21, 1996, the Company completed an initial public offering of
2,368 shares of common stock at $12.00 per share. The Company received net
proceeds of $25.4 million. In connection  with the initial public  offering,
all outstanding shares of  preferred stock converted into 1,543 shares of common
stock.

Follow-on Public Offering

     On August 21, 1997, the Company completed a public offering of 350 shares
of common stock at $12.00 per share. The Company received net proceeds of $3.9
million.

(8)  EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN

     In June 1996, the Company's Board of Directors adopted the 1996 Equity
Incentive Plan (the Equity Incentive Plan). The Company has reserved 3,000
shares of common stock for issuance under the Equity Incentive Plan. The Equity
Incentive Plan replaces the Company's 1994 Stock Option Plan and the Inmark
Stock Option Plan.

     The Equity Incentive Plan provides for grants of stock options to employees
(including officers and employee directors) and nonstatutory stock options to
employees (including officers and employee directors), directors and consultants
of the Company. The Equity Incentive Plan is administered by the Board of
Directors of a committee appointed by the Board, which determines recipients and
types of awards to be granted, including the exercise price, number of shares
subject to the award and the exercisability thereof.

     The terms of a stock option granted under the Equity Incentive Plan
generally may not exceed ten years (five years in the case of holders of more
than 10% of the Company's capital stock). The exercise price of options granted
under the Equity Incentive Plan is determined by the Board of Directors but, in
the case of an incentive stock option, cannot be less than 100% of the fair
market value of the common stock on the date of grant. Options granted under the
Equity Incentive Plan vest at the rate specified in the option agreement.

     The following table summarizes stock option activity through September 30,
1997:

     The Company follows APB 25, to account for stock option and employee stock
purchase plans.  No compensation cost is recognized because the option exercise
price is equal to the market price of the underlying stock on the date of grant.
Had compensation cost for these plans been determined based on the Black-Scholes
value at the grant dates for awards as prescribed by SFAS 123, pro forma net
income and earnings per share would have been:

     The weighted average Black-Scholes value of options granted under the stock
option plans during 1996 and 1997 was $3.57 and $6.64.  Value was estimated
using an expected life of five years, no dividends, volatility of .80, and risk-
free interest rates of 6.1% and 6.4% in 1996 and 1997.

(9)  EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN

     In June 1996, the Board adopted the Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the
"Purchase Plan") covering an aggregate of 350 shares of common stock. The
Purchase Plan is intended to qualify as an employee stock purchase plan within
the meaning of Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code. Under the Purchase
Plan, the Board of Directors may authorize participation by eligible employees,
including officers, in periodic offerings following the adoption of the Purchase
Plan. The offering period for any offering will be no more than 27 months.

     Employees are eligible to participate if they are employed by the Company
or an affiliate of the Company designated by the Board of Directors. Employees
who participate in an offering can have up to 15% of their earnings withheld
pursuant to the Purchase Plan and applied, on specific dates determined by the
Board of Directors, to the purchase of shares of common stock. The price of
common stock purchased under the Purchase Plan will be equal to 85% of the lower
of the fair market value of the common stock on the commencement date of each
offering period or the relevant purchase date. Employees may end their
participation in the offering at any time during the offering period, and
participation ends automatically on termination of employment with the Company.
During the year ended September 30, 1997, 36 shares were purchased under this
plan.

(10) QUALIFIED PROFIT SHARING PLAN

     The Company adopted a 401(k) profit sharing plan in January 1993. The plan
is offered to eligible employees and calls for a discretionary employer match of
employee contributions which is approved by the Board of Directors. To
participate in the plan, employees must have been employed for 90 days, and work
a minimum of 1,000 hours during the plan year. The Company matches all employee
contributions up to 3% of earnings and half of employee contributions from 3% to
5%. Company contributions paid in the years ended September 30, 1995, 1996 and
1997 were $31, $118, and $271, respectively.
