                        Report of Independent Auditors


The Board of Directors and Shareholders
NetEdge Systems, Inc.


We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of NetEdge 
Systems, Inc. and subsidiaries as of September 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996 
and the related consolidated statements of operations, redeemable preferred 
stock and shareholders' deficit, and cash flows for the nine months ended 
September 30, 1997 and for the year ended December 31, 1996.  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 consolidated financial statements referred to above 
present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position 
of NetEdge Systems, Inc. and subsidiaries as of September 30, 1997 and 
December 31, 1996, and the consolidated results of their operations and their 
cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and for the year 
ended December 31, 1996, in conformity with generally accepted accounting 
principles.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the 
Company will continue as a going concern.  As more fully described in Note 1, 
the Company has incurred recurring operating losses and has a working capital 
deficiency.  These conditions raise substantial doubt about the company's 
ability to continue as a going concern.  Management's plans in regard to 
these matters are also described in Note 1.  The financial statements do not 
include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the 
recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification 
that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

                  Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements


1. BUSINESS OF THE COMPANY AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

NetEdge Systems, Inc. ("NetEdge" or the "Company") was incorporated in 1993 
under the laws of Delaware.  The Company designs, develops and markets a 
family of multi-service access concentrators that enable voice and data 
carriers to offer value-added services to multiple customers over common 
asynchronous transfer mode ("ATM") infrastructures.  This technology improves 
performance, quality of service and reduces cost of deployment over 
conventional networking. NetEdge began shipping its products in May, 1994.

The Company was originally a wholly owned subsidiary of Fibercom, Inc. 
("Fibercom"), a contractor for government and private enterprises 
specializing in fiber-optic technology.  In July 1994, substantially all of 
the assets relating to the operations of FiberCom were sold to a third party. 
The remaining entities, the FiberCom "shell" and the NetEdge subsidiary, 
merged for the purpose of continuing the business of the NetEdge subsidiary 
and the merged corporation was renamed NetEdge Systems, Inc.

The Company's primary market includes established telephone carriers such as 
RBOCs, long distance companies, alternate carriers and internet service 
providers. NetEdge sells direct and relies on its relationships with 
value-added resellers and original equipment manufacturers to distribute its 
products on a worldwide basis.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

As of September 30, 1997, the Company has a net working capital deficiency of 
$1,027,674.  The Company is not generating sufficient revenues from its 
operations to fund its activities and therefore is dependent on additional 
financing from external sources.  Such factors raise substantial doubt about 
the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.  The consolidated 
financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from 
the outcome of this uncertainty.  Management has entered into a letter of 
intent to sell the Company to a corporate purchaser.  There is no assurance 
that the planned sale will close.  The inability to obtain additional 
financing or sell the company would have a material adverse effect on the 
Company.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of NetEdge 
Systems, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, NetEdge Systems 
International B.V. and NetEdge Systems (UK) Limited.  International sales, 
primarily in Europe and the UK, were approximately $2,145,000 during the nine 
months ended September 30, 1997 and $3,194,000 during the year ended December 
31, 1996, respectively.  All significant intercompany balances and 
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

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 those estimates.

SALES AND ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE

The Company markets its products to a global customer base.  To date, the 
majority of sales have been to U.S. customers.

Revenues from significant customers, those representing 10% or more of total 
revenues for the respective periods, are summarized as follows:

                                   1997                 1996

<S>                          <C>                    <C>
Customer 1                          45.9%                 50.1%
Customer 2                          14.9%                    -
</TABLE>

Additionally, four customers accounted for 62% and 77% of accounts receivable 
at September 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996, respectively.

The Company's principal financial instrument subject to potential 
concentration of credit risk is accounts receivable which are unsecured. The 
Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of customers and provides an 
allowance for estimated uncollectible amounts.

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.

INVENTORIES

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market.  Cost is determined 
using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) cost flow assumption.

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

Property and equipment are stated at cost.  Depreciation is determined for 
financial reporting purposes using the straight-line method over the 
estimated useful lives (three to five years) of the individual assets or, for 
leasehold improvements, over the terms of the related leases if shorter.  
Depreciation expense (including amortization of equipment leased under 
capital leases) amounted to $1,622,000 during the nine months ended September 
30, 1997 and $1,875,000 during the year ended December 31, 1996.  
Straight-line and accelerated methods of depreciation are used for income tax 
purposes.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

Net sales consist primarily of products shipped to voice and data carriers, 
ATM equipment vendors and large corporate customers.  Net product sales also 
include sales of certain ancillary products and services.

Generally, revenue is recognized when products are shipped.  Deferred revenue 
results from specific contractual terms for certain product sales and 
maintenance services.

PRODUCT WARRANTIES

The Company provides warranties on substantially all of its products and 
provides an accrual for estimated future warranty costs.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.

INCOME TAXES

The Company accounts for income taxes using the liability method.  Under the 
liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on 
differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and 
liabilities.

ADVERTISING EXPENSE

The cost of advertising is expensed as incurred.  Advertising expense was 
approximately $215,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and 
$431,000 during the year ended December 31, 1996.

IMPACT OF RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 130, 
"Reporting Comprehensive Income" ("SFAS 130") which addresses reporting 
amounts of other comprehensive income.  The Company does not believe that the 
adoption of this new standard will have a material impact on the financial 
statements.

4. REVOLVING CREDIT AGREEMENT

The terms of the revolving credit agreement with one of the Company's banks 
stipulated that the Company could borrow up to 85% of the value of its 
eligible accounts receivable and up to 50% of the value of its eligible 
inventory up to a combined maximum of $5,000,000.  The agreement entitled the 
bank to a perfected security interest in the Company's inventory and related 
accounts receivable equal to the amount drawn on the line of credit.  The 
agreement contained restrictive financial covenants, including tangible net 
worth and operating requirements.  Borrowings under the revolving credit 
agreement were $2,000,000 at December 31, 1996, which were repaid at maturity 
in May, 1997.

On September 30, 1997, the Company entered into a revolving credit agreement 
with a bank which stipulates that the Company may borrow up to 80% of the 
value of its eligible accounts receivable up to a maximum of $2,000,000.  The 
Company must establish the amount eligible for borrowing monthly and must 
repay any excess borrowings or may borrow additional amounts, if eligible.  
The agreement entitles the bank to a perfected security interest in
substantially all of the assets of the Company.  The agreement contains 
reporting requirements and restrictive financial covenants, including 
tangible net worth and operating requirements. The agreement will terminate 
on September 29, 1998, at which time any outstanding balance will be payable 
in full.  Interest is payable monthly at the bank's published prime rate 
(8.5% at September 30, 1997) plus 1%.  As of September 30, 1997, there is no 
outstanding balance.

5. REDEEMABLE PREFERRED STOCKS

As part of the merger transaction described in Note 1, the holders of 
redeemable preferred stock of FiberCom exchanged their shares for redeemable 
preferred stock of NetEdge on a one for one basis.

The Class A, Class B and Class C redeemable preferred stocks ("Class A 
Preferred," "Class B Preferred" and "Class C Preferred," respectively) are 
convertible into common stock at a conversion ratio of 40 shares of common 
stock for each share of preferred stock.  The conversion prices are $.775, 
$1.75 and $2.925 per common share for the Class A, Class B and Class C 
Preferred, respectively.  If common stock or any equity security to acquire 
common stock is issued that would result in common stock being issued at a 
price less than the conversion price, the conversion price is automatically 
adjusted to a lower amount to ratably reflect such issuance.  Issuance of 
common stock under the incentive stock option plans is exempt from affecting 
the conversion price.  The Class A, Class B and Class C Preferred are subject 
to automatic conversion in the event of a public offering for which the 
aggregate proceeds exceed $7.5 million at a per share price of at least 
$1.937, $3.50 and $4.00 per share, respectively.  There are 4,157,640 shares 
of common stock reserved for conversion of Class A, Class B and Class C 
Preferred at September 30, 1997.

The Company issued 2,768,750 shares of Class D redeemable preferred stock 
("Class D Preferred") at an issuance price of $4 per share on August 4, 1995. 
Shares of Class D Preferred may be converted at any time into fully paid and 
non-assessable shares of common stock.  Each share will automatically be 
converted into common stock in the event of a public offering in which the 
gross proceeds equals or exceeds $15,000,000 at a per share price of at least 
$8.00.  At September 30, 1997, the conversion ratio was one share of common 
stock for each share of preferred stock and the conversion ratio is subject 
to adjustment upon the issuance of additional common stock.  There are 
2,768,750 shares of common stock reserved for conversion of the Class D 
Preferred at September 30, 1997.

On May 2, 1997, the Company sold 2,100,000 shares of Class E redeemable 
preferred stock ("Class E Preferred") and 2,100,000 detachable warrants to 
purchase the Company's common stock for aggregate proceeds of $8,400,000.  
The Class E Preferred is initially convertible at the option of the holder 
into the number of shares of common stock as determined by dividing $4.00 by 
the conversion price.  The initial conversion price is $4.00, subject to 
adjustment upon the occurrence of certain events as described in the 
agreement.  The Class E Preferred will automatically convert into common 
shares, at the then applicable conversion price, in the event of an 
underwritten public offering of the Company's common shares in which the 
gross proceeds to the Company exceed $20,000,000 and the public offering 
price per share is not less than $8 per share.  The warrants issued have an 
initial exercise price of $5 per share and expire seven years from the date 
of issuance.  The warrants had negligible value at the time of issuance. 
There are 4,200,000 shares of common stock reserved for the conversion of 
Class E Preferred and exercise of the warrants at September 30, 1997.

Under the original agreements, each holder of Class A and Class B Preferred 
was entitled, at any time after September 30, 1992, to compel the Company to 
redeem all shares of Class A and Class B Preferred.  Holders of Class A and 
Class B Preferred have agreed to postpone redemption until August 4, 2000.

The Class C Preferred was originally subject to mandatory redemption in the 
amount of $850,044 per year for the three years ending September 30, 1992, 
1993 and 1994.  To date, the Company has paid $899,799 in connection with 
redemptions of Class C Preferred shares, with the remaining holders 
postponing redemption until September 30, 1998.

         Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)


5. REDEEMABLE PREFERRED STOCKS (CONTINUED)

At the option of each individual holder of Class D Preferred, commencing on 
August 4, 2000 and continuing on each anniversary thereafter, the Company may 
be required to redeem the number of shares specified in redemption requests, 
by paying the original purchase price plus all declared but unpaid dividends. 
On each date, the Company cannot be required to redeem in excess of 25% of 
the number of shares of Class D Preferred originally issued.

At the individual option of each holder of the Class E Preferred, the Company 
will redeem 25% of the outstanding Class E shares at an initial redemption 
price of $4 per share on or after each of May 1, 2002, May 1, 2003, May 1, 
2004, and May 1, 2005.  Under terms of the agreement, no other class of 
preferred may be redeemed prior to Class E Preferred.

Under the most restrictive provisions of the aforementioned securities, the 
Company cannot be required to redeem or purchase any shares of its common 
stock except in accordance with incentive stock option plans.  Class A, B and 
C Preferred stockholders are entitled to dividends, to the extent that 
dividends are declared on common stock.  Such dividends will be based on the 
number of common shares into which each share of preferred stock can be 
converted.  The holders of Class D and Class E Preferred shall be entitled to 
receive, when and if declared, annual noncumulative dividends at the per 
annum rate of $.36 per share.  The agreements also define rights to 
participate in sales of additional securities of the Company.  In the event 
the funds of the company legally available for redemption of the Class A, 
Class B and Class C Preferred are insufficient to redeem the total number of 
shares, the Company shall apply 33 1/3 percent of the legally available funds 
to each class of preferred stock until the Company has redeemed the number of 
shares it has become obligated to redeem.  Class E holders, in the event of 
liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, shall be entitled 
to be paid out of the assets of the Corporation prior and in preference to 
the holders of Common Stock, Class A, Class B, Class C and Class D Preferred. 
Class D holders, in the event of liquidation, dissolution or winding up of 
the Corporation, shall be entitled to be paid out of the assets of the 
Corporation prior and in preference to the holders of Common Stock, Class A, 
Class B and Class C Preferred.  The liquidation preference shall be a per 
share amount equal to the sum of $4.00 plus all declared but unpaid dividends.

6. STOCK COMPENSATION PLANS

On December 1, 1995, the stockholders approved incentive stock option plans 
which provide for the granting of options covering up to 2,000,000 shares of 
the Company's common stock to certain employees.  In addition, the Company 
agreed to convert FiberCom's option agreements, which were approved by the 
stockholders at various times for the granting of options up to 3,632,400 
shares of common stock, to options to purchase the same number of shares of 
common stock of NetEdge.

Under terms of the plans, options may not be granted at less than fair market 
value as of the date of the grant as determined by the Board of Directors. 
Options granted under the plans generally become exercisable 25% beginning 
one year after the date of grant, and 1/48th per month commencing on the 
thirteenth month after the date of grant.  Such options expire not later than 
ten years after the date of grant.

The Company has elected to continue to follow Accounting Principles Board 
Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" ("APB 25") and 
related interpretations in accounting for its employee stock options.  Under 
APB 25, because the exercise price of the Company's employee stock options 
equals the market price of the underlying stock on the date of grant, no 
compensation expense is recognized.

6. STOCK COMPENSATION PLANS (CONTINUED)

Pro forma information regarding net loss is required by SFAS 123, and has 
been determined as if the Company accounted for its employee stock options 
granted subsequent to December 31, 1994 under the fair value method as 
prescribed by SFAS 123.  The fair value of these options was estimated at the 
date of grant using the minimum value option pricing model with the following 
weighted-average assumptions at September 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996, 
respectively: risk-free interest rates of 6.00% and 6.24%; no dividend yield 
and a weighted-average expected life of the options of 4.5 and 5 years.

Option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions. 
Changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair 
value estimates.  Had the compensation cost for the Company's stock option 
plans been determined based on the fair value at the date of grant for awards 
in 1997 and 1996 consistent with the provisions of SFAS 123, the Company's 
net loss would have been increased to the pro forma amounts indicated below:

6.  STOCK COMPENSATION PLANS (CONTINUED)

In June, 1997, 310,000 option grants to certain terminated employees were 
amended to accelerate the vesting period, extend the exercise period and 
reduce the exercise price to $.10 per share, the estimated fair value of the 
stock at that date.

The weighted-average grant-date fair value of options granted was $.08 for 
options granted during the nine months ended September 30, 1997 and $.83 for 
options granted during the year ended December 31, 1996.

At December 31, 1996, options to purchase 1,046,134 shares were exercisable 
with a weighted average exercise price of $1.0526.  At September 30, 1997 
option summary information was as follows:

8. INCOME TAXES

At September 30, 1997, the Company has net operating loss carryforwards of 
approximately $21,000,000 for income tax purposes that begin to expire in 
2010 and research and development tax credits of approximately $890,000 that 
begins to expire in 1999. For financial reporting purposes, a valuation 
allowance has been recognized to offset the deferred tax assets related to 
those carryforwards.  When and if realized, the tax benefit for those items 
will be reflected in current operations as a reduction of income tax expense. 
The Company had no significant deferred tax liabilities.  Significant 
components of the Company's deferred tax assets are as follows:

9. RETIREMENT PLAN

The Company has a qualified 401(k) Retirement Plan.  Substantially all 
full-time employees are eligible to participate and participants may 
contribute from 1 percent to 10 percent of their compensation to the Plan.  
The Company matches 50 percent of each participant's contribution, with the 
Company's portion not to exceed 2 percent of each participant's compensation. 
Total expense for the plan was approximately $100,000 during the nine months 
ended September 30, 1997 and $118,000 during the year ended December 31, 1996.

10.  RESTRUCTURING CHARGES

During the second quarter of 1997, the Company recorded restructuring charges 
of approximately $717,000 related to the Company's efforts to enhance overall 
competitiveness, productivity and efficiency through the reduction of 
overhead costs.  This charge principally reflects the severance costs 
resulting from workforce reductions and realignments throughout the Company.  
To date, payments approximating $437,000 have been made related to the 
restructuring.

11. COMMITMENT AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company has outstanding purchase commitments for inventory of 
approximately $692,000 of which approximately $432,000 was non-cancelable at 
September 30, 1997.  Such commitments were at prices not in excess of current 
market prices.

During 1997, the Company's Board of Directors approved retention bonuses to 
be paid to certain employees who remained with NetEdge until it could be sold 
or merged.  The bonus was established as 10% of the net sales price of the 
Company, with a minimum bonus amount of $1.5 million.  As of September 30, 
1997, the Company had accrued $1,369,000 as a pro rata portion of the 
anticipated retention bonus.

During 1996, the Company entered into an agreement with a third party 
pursuant to which the third party would act as the Company's exclusive 
financial advisor in connection with a possible sale, merger or other 
strategic combination.  The terms of the agreement stipulate that should such 
a transaction be consummated, NetEdge would be required to pay a transaction 
fee calculated as a percentage of the aggregate value of the transaction, 
with a minimum transaction fee amount of $1.5 million.  If no such 
transaction is consummated within one year of the termination of the 
agreement, the Company will not be obligated to pay the transaction fee, but 
would instead pay an advisory fee based on actual time and expenses incurred.

On October 26, 1997, the Company signed a letter of intent to be sold to a 
corporate purchaser.  Assuming the sale is consummated as planned, the 
closing is expected to occur in the fourth quarter of 1997.

NOTES TO PRO FORMA COMBINED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The unaudited pro forma combined condensed consolidated financial 
statements give effect to the acquisition of NetEdge Systems, Inc. 
("NetEdge") by Larsom Incorporated ("Larscom") under the purchase method of 
accounting. The unaudited pro forma combined condensed consolidated balance 
sheet combines Larscom's unaudited consolidated balance sheet and NetEdge's 
unaudited balance sheet at September 30, 1997 as if the acquisition had 
occurred on September 30, 1997.  The unaudited pro forma combined condensed 
consolidated statement of operations combine the historical results of 
operations of Larscom and NetEdge, for the nine months ended September 30, 
1997, and year ended December 31, 1996, as if the acquisition had occurred on 
January 1, 1996.

     The unaudited pro forma combined condensed consolidated financial 
statements do not reflect cost savings and synergies which might be achieved 
from the acquisition.  The unaudited pro forma combined condensed 
consolidated financial statements do not purport to be indicative of the 
operating results or financial position that would have been achieved had the 
acquisition been effected for the period indicated or the results or 
financial position which may be obtained in the future.

     These combined condensed consolidated pro forma financial statements are 
based on and should be read in conjunction with the historical audited and 
unaudited consolidated financial statements of Larscom, including the notes 
thereto, and the audited historical financial statements of NetEdge, 
including the notes thereto.

NOTE 2 - PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS

     The following adjustments were applied to the historical condensed 
financial statements to arrive at the pro-forma combined condensed financial 
statements.

(a)  On December 31, 1997, the Company completed its acquisition of NetEdge 
     Systems, Inc.  The acquisition will be accounted for using the purchase 
     method; accordingly, the purchase price will be allocated to the assets 
     acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values as 
     of the acquisition date.  The allocation of the purchase price assuming 
     the acquisition occurred as of September 30, 1997 for pro forma purposes 
     is as follows:
