(5) Information furnished reflects all adjustments which are, in the opinion
of management, necessary to a fair presentation of the results of this
interim statement.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of July 31, 1995, working capital amounted to $14.6 million reflecting
a current ratio of 2.8 compared to working capital of $14.0 million and a
current ratio of 2.3 as of April 30, 1995.
The Company's financial condition remains strong. The Company has a $11.0
million unsecured line of credit with a bank which expires in October 1997. The
line of credit was used during the quarter to deal with peak cash demands. At
the end of the quarter no amount was outstanding under the line of credit. With
its current working capital balance and the line of credit, management believes
that it will be able to support its revenue growth and other capital needs for
the foreseeable future.
Results of Operations
Revenues for the three month period ending July 31, 1995, were $24,885,000
compared to revenues of $22,163,000 for the comparable prior year period, an
increase of 12%. Revenues for computer memory products increased by 17% over
the prior year first quarter as prior year revenues included $912,000 from a
discontinued product line.
<PAGE> 7
Cost of sales for the first quarter of fiscal 1996 and 1995 were 88% and
83% of revenues, respectively. Computer memory products have become commodity
items and as such command low operating margins. As a result of recent
restructurings, the Company has successfully transformed its organizational
structure to compete in a computer memory market characterized by high volume,
pricing pressures and low operating margins. Dynamic rams, the primary raw
material in memory boards, continue to be in short supply and prices have risen
from fourth quarter fiscal 1995 levels. To date, the Company has been able to
acquire and expects to continue to be able to acquire sufficient quantities of
DRAMs to fill its needs.
Engineering and development costs in fiscal 1996's first quarter were
$435,000 versus $629,000 in last year's first quarter. Today's workstation,
server and personal computer memories have simple design characteristics. The
Company intends to maintain its commitment to timely introduction of new memory
products as new workstations and computers are introduced.
Selling, general and administrative costs in this year's first quarter
declined to 7% of revenues from 12% for the same prior year period. Total
expenditures decreased by $906,000 from the same prior year period. This
decrease is primarily the result of the restructuring of the Company's
operations related to a discontinued product line which occurred at the end of
the fourth quarter of last fiscal year. As a result of the restructuring, the
Company's engineering and development expenses and selling, general and
administrative expenses total less than 10% of revenues and are expected to
remain below 10% on comparable revenues.
Other income (expense), for the first quarter of fiscal 1996 consisted
primarily of interest expense associated with the Company's revolving credit
line. Prior year other income (expense) consisted of interest expense offset by
income from salvage of certain obsolete equipment and inventory items.

A. Backlog
The Company's backlog released for shipment as of July 31, 1995, was $0.6
million compared to a backlog of $3.5 million on July 31, 1994. The Company
normally fills most of its orders within one day or less after receipt and its
backlog at any point in time is not necessarily indicative of future financial
performance.

DATARAM 1ST QUARTER '96
DATARAM DOUBLES FIRST QUARTER PROFITS
PRINCETON, NJ, August 10, 1995--Dataram Corporation (AMEX:DTM), doubled its
profits on strong revenues for the first quarter of fiscal 1996, Robert V.
Tarantino, president and chief executive officer, announced today.
For the first quarter ended July 31, 1995, net earnings doubled to $537,000 or
$.14 per share, compared to $268,000, or $.07 per share, for the year-earlier
period. Revenues improved 12.3 percent to $24.9 million versus $22.2 million
reported for the comparable prior-year period. Excluding revenues from a
discontinued product line, revenues from memory products increased 17 percent
over first quarter of fiscal 1995.
Tarantino attributed Dataram's strong performance to continuing brisk demand
for the Company's computer memory products, combined with sharply reduced
operating expenses.
"Recent restructurings have made us a lean, cost-efficient organization which
can compete profitably and enhance a leading position in a rapidly expanding,
extremely competitive industry," Tarantino declared. "We are achieving in
excess of $1.5 million in revenues per employee, representing an almost
five-fold increase since 1992."
Tarantino said Dataram's dedicated and highly automated manufacturing facility,
which is producing and shipping customer orders within 24 hours or less, has
improved Dataram's response to customer needs for memory expansion products. As
a result, Dataram's asset management has greatly improved by substantially
reducing inventory levels.
Capitalizing on the growing popularity of more powerful personal computers,
Dataram broadened its product line late in the first quarter, Tarantino stated,
introducing memory products tailored to Hewlett-Packard, Compaq and IBM
high-end personal computers and servers.
Strong product demand was evident in both domestic and foreign markets. "We
were especially pleased with sales in Western Europe, which is recovering from
a recession," Tarantino said.
While DRAM chips remain in tight supply and are more costly, Dataram has
obtained sufficient quantities to satisfy production requirements and has been
able to pass on increased raw material costs to customers, according to
Tarantino.
The Company has sustained its solid financial condition. With no debt and an
unsecured $11 million line of credit, Tarantino said Dataram is well positioned
to finance its long term growth objectives without the need for additional
funding sources.
"We are very pleased with first quarter results and expect profitable
performance to continue," Tarantino declared. "Our efficient infrastructure is
keeping indirect expenses below 10 percent of gross revenues, which will
maximize Dataram's profitable participation in the vibrant computer memory
industry."
Dataram develops, manufactures and markets quality computer memory products for
workstations, servers and personal computers.
