ITEM 5.        OTHER EVENTS

        On March 1, 2000 Broadcom Corporation ("Broadcom") completed the
acquisitions of Digital Furnace Corporation ("Digital Furnace"), BlueSteel
Networks, Inc. ("BlueSteel") and Stellar Semiconductor, Inc. ("Stellar").
Although individually and in aggregate the acquisitions were not significant to
Broadcom as defined in Rule 1-02(w) of Regulation S-X, Broadcom is providing pro
forma combined financial information giving effect to the acquisitions.

        The following unaudited condensed pro forma combined financial
statements (the "Pro Forma Statements") are based on the consolidated financial
statements of Broadcom and its subsidiaries (included on a Current Report on
Form 8-K/A filed November 24, 1999 and the Annual Report on Form 10-K to be
filed on or about March 30, 2000) as adjusted to give effect to the business
combinations between Broadcom and Digital Furnace, between Broadcom and
BlueSteel and between Broadcom and Stellar, accounted for in each case using the
pooling-of-interests method of accounting. Additionally, the Pro Forma
Statements reflect adjustments made to (i) conform the accounting policies of
the combining companies and (ii) eliminate intercompany transactions. No
adjustments have been made to give effect to expenses related to the business
combinations, which expenses Broadcom expects to record in the quarter ending
March 31, 2000. The Pro Forma Statements give effect to the business
combinations as if they had occurred prior to the beginning of each period
presented.

        All share numbers and per share amounts included in the Pro Forma
Statements have been retroactively adjusted to reflect Broadcom's 2-for-1 stock
splits, each in the form of a 100% stock dividend, effective February 11, 2000
and February 17, 1999, respectively, as well as an earlier 3-for-2 stock split
effective March 9, 1998.

        The Pro Forma Statements are unaudited; however, they contain all normal
recurring accruals and adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are
necessary to present fairly the combined financial position and results of
operations of Broadcom and subsidiaries and Digital Furnace, BlueSteel and
Stellar for each of the eight quarters through December 31, 1999, and the
combined results of operations for the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and
1997. It should be understood that accounting measurements at interim dates
inherently involve greater reliance on estimates than at year-end. The Pro Forma
Statements are presented for informational purposes only, do not purport to
constitute complete financial statements, and are not necessarily indicative of
future operating results. The Pro Forma Statements also do not include footnotes
and certain financial presentations normally required for complete financial
statements under generally accepted accounting principles. Therefore, the Pro
Forma Statements should be read in conjunction with Broadcom's audited financial
statements and notes thereto for the years ended December 31, 1998 and December
31, 1999, and the related Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations, included on the Current Report on Form
8-K/A filed November 24, 1999 and the Annual Report on Form 10-K to be filed on
or about March 30, 2000, respectively.

        The information contained in this Form 8-K is not a complete description
of our business or the risks associated with an investment in our common stock.
We urge you to carefully review and consider the various disclosures, including
but not limited to the section entitled "Risk Factors," made by us in our
Current Report on Form 8-K/A filed November 24, 1999 and in our other reports
filed with the SEC, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 1999, to be filed on or about March 30, 2000, and our subsequent
reports on



<PAGE>   3

Forms 10-Q and 8-K, that discuss our business in greater detail and advise
interested parties of certain risks, uncertainties and other factors that may
affect our business, results of operations or financial condition.
