BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reflect,
in the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to present fairly the
Company's financial position and results of operations and cash flows.  Such
adjustments are of a recurring nature unless otherwise disclosed herein.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
have been condensed or omitted pursuant to rules and regulations promulgated by
the Securities and Exchange Commission.  However, the Company believes that the
disclosures contained herein are adequate to make the information presented not
misleading.  Quarterly consolidated financial results may not be indicative of
annual consolidated financial results.

The Company has not paid or declared a cash dividend on its common stock since
its organization.

Certain prior years' financial statement information has been reclassified to
conform with the current year financial statement presentation.

These unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
audited financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company's
1993 Annual Report to Shareholders for the year ended December 31, 1993.

<PAGE>   7
CREDIT AGREEMENT

On February 24, 1994, the Company entered into an uncollateralized revolving
credit facility, which expires on February 24, 1997, with two banks providing
for borrowings up to $50,000,000.  The maximum borrowings available are reduced
by the value of outstanding letters of credit issued by the banks on behalf of
the Company up to $25,000,000.  Borrowings under the facility bear interest at
the prime rate or at 0.75% to 1.50% above the LIBOR rate.  A commitment fee of
0.35% on the daily average unused portion of the facility is also assessed.
The agreement contains various financial covenants.  There have been no
borrowings under the credit facility during the six months ended June 30, 1994.
Letters of credit issued by the banks under this agreement on behalf of the
Company were approximately $6,708,000 at June 30, 1994.

DEBT

On January 14, 1994, the Company called for the redemption of all of the
outstanding 8% subordinated convertible debentures.  The debentures were
convertible, at the option of the holder, into shares of the Company's common
stock at $54.50 per share.  In February 1994, $34,720,000 of debentures were
converted into approximately 637,000 shares of common stock, and $1,696,000 of
debentures were redeemed for cash.

INCOME TAX EXPENSE

The Company's income tax expense includes foreign, state (primarily related to
Puerto Rico) and federal income taxes.  The estimated effective income tax rate
is based upon estimates for the full year for a number of variables including,
among other things, forecasted income, a deduction for gains by employees from
exercises of stock options and the degree to which net operating losses may be
utilized.  The effective tax rate could change as estimates of these variables
change throughout the year.

COMMON STOCK

On April 27, 1994, the shareholders approved an increase in the number of
authorized shares of common stock from 100 million to 250 million shares.  In
addition, on April 27, 1994 the Board of Directors authorized a two-for-one
stock split, effected in the form of a 100% stock dividend, to shareholders of
record on May 11, 1994.  The par-value of common stock was not changed from
$0.01.  The stock split resulted in the issuance of 56,004,000 new shares of
common stock and the transfer of $560,040 from Additional Capital to Common
Stock, representing the par value of the shares issued.  All 1993 average
<PAGE>   8
shares and per share data have been restated to retroactively reflect the stock
split.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Contingent Liabilities

The Company periodically sells customer receivables and operating leases under
agreements which contain recourse provisions.  The Company could be obligated
to repurchase receivables and operating leases which were previously sold on a
partial recourse basis, the terms of which allow the Company to limit its risk
of loss to $4,222,000 at June 30, 1994.  The Company has guarantees of
$9,770,000 outstanding at June 30, 1994, supporting Company and third-party
performance bonds to customers and others, of which $6,708,000 were
collateralized by letters of credit issued under the Company's credit facility.
The Company believes it has adequate reserves for any ultimate losses
associated with these contingencies.

The Company enters into forward foreign exchange contracts to hedge certain
receivables and firm contracts for delivery of products and services which are
denominated in foreign currencies.  At June 30, 1994, the Company had forward
foreign exchange contracts of $21,578,000 to hedge future receipts in such
currencies.  Gains and losses related to the forward contracts are recognized
as part of the cost of the underlying transactions being hedged.  Forward
foreign exchange contracts generally have maturities of one year or less and
contain an element of risk that the counterparty may be unable to meet the
terms of the agreement.  However, the Company minimizes such risk exposure by
limiting the counterparty to major financial institutions.  Management believes
the risk of incurring such losses is remote and any losses therefrom would be
immaterial.

Item 2.    Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition  
           and Results of Operations.

Results of Operations

For the three months ended June 30, 1994, the Company reported revenue of
$229.6 million and net income of $36.3 million, or $0.31 per share, compared to
revenue of $168.7 million and net income of $18.2 million, or $0.17 per share,
for the three months ended June 30, 1993.  For the six months ended June 30,
1994, the Company recorded revenue of $430.4 million and net income of $65.9
million, or $0.57 per share, compared to revenue of $324.9 million and a net
income of $29.6 million, or $0.29 per share, for the first half of 1993.  All
average shares and income per share data presented for 1993 have been restated
to retroactively reflect the stock split.  See "Common Stock" in Notes to
Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.

Revenue for the 1994 second quarter and first six months increased more than
36% and 32%, respectively, compared to the same periods in 1993.  The growth in
revenue was primarily the result of continuing strong demand for switching and
access products.  In particular, deliveries of switching products to cellular
customers experienced substantial growth.  Gross profit as a percentage of
revenue was approximately 49% for both the second quarter and six month period
ended June 30, 1994 compared to 43% for each of the same periods last year.
Continued improvement in operating efficiencies, higher business levels and a
favorable product mix all contributed to this improvement.  The Company's gross
margin percentage can vary significantly from period to period due to changes
in the relative mix of product deliveries, including software enhancements.

Research and product development expense in the second quarter of 1994 and 1993
was $28.9 million, or 13% of revenue, and $19.9 million, or 12% of revenue,
respectively.  Research and product development expense for the six months
ended June 30, 1994 was $53.6 million, or 12% of revenue, compared to $41.1
million, or 13% of revenue, for the six months in 1993.  These increases in
research and product development expense represent the Company's on-going
commitment to develop new products and enhance existing products across all
strategic product areas.

Selling, general and administrative expense was $33.9 million and $64.5 million
in the second quarter of 1994 and six months ended June 30, 1994, respectively,
compared to $26.7 million and $52.6 million, respectively, for the same periods
in 1993.  As a percentage of revenue, selling, general and administrative
expense for both the three months and six months ended June 30, 1994 declined
to 15% from 16% as compared to the same periods in 1993.
<PAGE>   10
Income before income taxes for the second quarter and first half of 1994 was
favorably impacted by an increase in interest income and substantially lower
interest expense.  Interest income for the three months and six months ended
June 30, 1994 increased by $2.7 million and $5.0 million, respectively, from
the same periods in 1993 due primarily to the investment of the proceeds from
the November 1993 equity offering in marketable securities.  Interest expense
for the three and six months ended June 30, 1994 declined $1.0 million and $2.6
million, respectively, from the same periods in 1993.  This was primarily due
to the conversion of substantially all of the Company's outstanding
subordinated convertible debentures in 1993 and early 1994 into shares of the
Company's common stock.

The Company's estimated effective income tax rate was 28% for the three month
and six month periods ended June 30, 1994.  See "Income Taxes" in Notes to
Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.

The Company's future quarterly and annual operating results may be affected by
a number of factors, including the timing and ultimate receipt of orders from
customers which continue to constitute a large portion of the Company's
revenue; the successful enhancement of existing products; introduction and
market acceptance of new products on a timely basis; mix of products sold;
product costs; manufacturing lead times; and changes in general economic
conditions, any of which could have an adverse impact on operations.

Financial Condition and Liquidity

The Company's cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 1994 were $124.6 million
compared to $154.9 million at December 31, 1993 while marketable securities
were $216.3 million at June 30, 1994 compared to $158.9 million at December 31,
1993.

Cash of $126.6 million was generated from operating activities.  This was
primarily the result of strong earnings, a reduction in accounts receivable and
an increase in non-debt liabilities, partially offset by a  growth in
inventories.  The $32.3 million inventory growth primarily relates to finished
goods built to support existing customer order backlog and additional customer
requirements for the last half of 1994.

During the first six months of 1994, the Company invested $63.9 million in
property and equipment.  The Company's rapid business expansion during 1993 and
1994 and expected future domestic and international growth have and will
continue to increase capital requirements, including facilities and
manufacturing and development equipment.  The Company has initiated a major
facilities expansion
<PAGE>   11
plan at its current campus location.  The Company purchased 148 acres of land
near the Company's present campus location for approximately $16.4 million.  In
addition, construction of a warehouse and an office building began on a portion
of the new land which is expected to be completed in early 1995 and cost
approximately $50 million.  Also, in July 1994 the Company purchased a
previously leased building on its campus for approximately $5 million.  It is
anticipated that 1994 capital requirements for the full year could exceed $150
million.  Also included in investing activities in the first half of 1994 is
the purchase of $12.5 million of long-term interest bearing investment
securities collateralized by U.S. Treasury obligations.

Financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 1994 included
proceeds of $3.8 million from the issuance of the Company's common stock
related to employee stock programs.  Additionally, the Company made $8.8
million of scheduled payments on long-term borrowings during the six months
ended June 30, 1994.  The Company periodically finances facilities and
equipment requirements under operating leases.  During the first half of 1994,
future minimum operating lease obligations increased significantly primarily
due to the Company's expansion into new facilities under a long-term lease in
the United Kingdom and certain new short term facilities leases.

As discussed in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements,
debentureholders converted approximately $34.7 million of debentures into
approximately 637,000 shares of common stock and approximately $1.7 million of
debentures were redeemed for cash.

In February 1994, the Company entered into a new unsecured revolving credit
facility, which expires on February 24, 1997, providing for borrowings up to
$50.0 million.  The maximum available borrowings are reduced by the value of
outstanding letters of credit issued on behalf of the Company up to $25.0
million.  The agreement contains various financial covenants.  There have been
no borrowings under the credit facility during the six months ended June 30,
1994.  At June 30, 1994, the Company could borrow up to $43.3 million under the
credit agreement, net of outstanding letters of credit.  See "Credit Agreement"
in Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further
information.

The Company believes that its existing cash and short term investments,
combined with its available financing alternatives, will be adequate to support
its expected business growth, including working capital expansion, necessary
capital expenditure requirements, operating lease obligations and scheduled
debt payments.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

Litigation

        On January 26, 1994, C. L. Grimes, a shareholder of the Company, filed a
suit in Delaware Chancery Court (the "Court"), derivatively purportedly on
behalf of the Company as the real party in interest and as a shareholder of the
Company, seeking a declaration that the Employment Agreement of James L. Donald,
his Executive Income Continuation Plan, and the 1990 Long-Term Incentive
Compensation Plan, as it applies to Mr. Donald as well as other employment
benefits of Mr. Donald are null and void.  The defendants in the suit are Mr.
Donald, all current non-employee directors, and two former directors of the
Company.  The Company itself is a nominal defendant.  The plaintiff contends
that Mr. Donald's employment contract contains an improper delegation of the
Board of Directors' authority to Mr. Donald and excess payments.  The suit also
contends that the salary and benefits established for Mr. Donald pursuant to the
Donald agreements referred to above and by the Company's Board of Directors are
excessive and constitute a diversion and waste of corporate assets.  The suit
seeks an injunction restraining Mr. Donald from exercising any stock options,
taking any action to implement any of the Donald agreements, or declaring a
constructive termination of his employment, and also seeks unspecified damages
against the defendants and Grimes' legal fees.  On June 1, 1994, Mr. Grimes
filed a first amended and supplemental complaint, which adds claims of various
defects in the Company's proxy statement transmitted to stockholders in
connection with its Annual Meeting held on April 27, 1994.  The plaintiff seeks
a decree from the Court that the proxy statement in so far as it relates to the
Company's 1994 Long Term Incentive Plan (the "LTIP") and actions taken pursuant
to the proxy statement with respect to the LTIP are null and void and seeks to
enjoin this Company from implementing the LTIP.  All defendants have filed
answers denying Grimes' claims and have moved to dismiss such claims, with the
exception of the recently added claim relating to the proxy statement, and
intend to vigorously contest all claims.

        On July 20, 1993, the Company filed suit against Advanced Fibre
Communications ("AFC"), a California corporation; Quadrium Corporation
("Quadrium"), a California corporation; Alan E. Negrin ("Negrin"); and Henri
Sulzer ("Sulzer") in the United States District Court for the Eastern District
of Texas, Marshall Division, Civil Action No. 2-93CV126.  The Company seeks a
declaratory judgment that Negrin and Sulzer are not entitled to any stock
options or cash payments under the Company's 1990 Stock Option and Cash Payment
Plan because of these defendants' alleged breaches of certain employment-related
agreements
<PAGE>   13
entered into with the Company.  The Company further seeks a declaration that
AFC's products, including the UMC 1000 Digital Loop Carrier, are the
proprietary property of the Company under the terms of certain Proprietary
Information Agreements or certain Consulting Agreements with Quadrium.  The
Company also seeks unspecified damages for breach of contract, civil
conspiracy, and tortious interference.  The individual defendants have both
filed counterclaims whereby they claim entitlement to certain stock options and
cash payments under several of the Company's stock option plans.  AFC has also
filed a counterclaim alleging that the Company has violated the Sherman
Antitrust Act and a California statutory antitrust act known as the Cartwright
Act.  AFC further claims that the Company has (a) tortiously interfered with
existing and prospective contractual relationships, (b) committed industrial
espionage and misappropriation, (c) trespassed on AFC's business premises, (d)
converted certain property of AFC, and (e) committed unfair competition.  AFC
also seeks a declaratory judgment that it owns all rights to its product, the
UMC Digital Loop Carrier.  AFC asks the court to award unspecified actual
damages, treble damages under the antitrust statutes, punitive damages,
injunctive relief, and attorneys' fees.  Although the outcome of litigation is
inherently uncertain, the Company believes that it has valid and substantial
claims against all of the defendants and valid defenses to all of the
counterclaims.  The case is still in discovery, and the Company intends to
vigorously prosecute its claims and defend all of the defendants'
counterclaims.

        The Company does not believe that the ultimate resolution of any of
these suits will have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial
position.

        The Company is also a party to other legal proceedings which, in the
opinion of management, are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the
Company's consolidated financial position.
