NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

March 31, 1995

NOTE A--BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial  information and with the  instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of
Regulation  S-X.  Accordingly,  they do not include all of the  information  and
footnotes  required by generally  accepted  accounting  principles  for complete
financial statements. In the opinion of management,  all adjustments (consisting
of normal recurring  accruals)  considered  necessary for a fair presentation of
the results for the interim  periods  presented  have been  included.  Operating
results  for the  three  months  ending  March  31,  1995  are  not  necessarily
indicative  of the results that may be expected for the year ended  December 31,
1995. For further  information,  refer to the consolidated  financial statements
and footnotes  thereto  included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for
the year ended December 31, 1994.

NOTE B--INCOME PER SHARE

Primary earnings per share assume that outstanding  common shares were increased
by shares issuable upon the exercise of all  outstanding  stock options to which
market price exceeds  exercise price less shares which could have been purchased
with related proceeds.


PART I.

ITEM 2.       MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
              CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Results of Operations

         Net sales in the first quarter of 1995  increased by $5.5  million,  or
22%,  over the same  quarter of 1994.  Of the  increase,  Dealer  network  sales
increased $3.1 million,  or 46% over 1994.  Direct Sales  revenues  increased by
$1.7 million,  or 11%, over the preceding year's quarter.  The increases in both
distribution channels were attributable  principally to sales of AXXESS software
and systems sales.

         The gross  margin  percentage  in the first  quarter  of 1995 was 41.6%
compared  with  38.9% for the  first  quarter  of 1994.  The 1995  gross  margin
percentage was favorably  impacted by a higher  proportion of software sales and
continued  increase in shipments of AXXESS systems.  Also,  Dealer network sales
constituted a larger proportion of total shipments.

         Research  and  Development   expenses  increased  in  total  and  as  a
percentage  of  sales,   reflecting  a  planned   commitment  to   technological
development and shorter product release periods.

         Selling,  General and Administrative  expenses during the first quarter
of 1995 were  28.7% of net sales  compared  with 28.0% of net sales in the first
quarter  of  1994.  These  expenses  increased  as a  result  of  greater  sales
commissions on increased sales,  additional marketing resources for the expanded
dealer network and for long distance  services and expenses  related to building
infrastructure for management information systems.

         Other income  increased by the  temporary  investment of excess cash at
higher interest rates.

         Income from Operations increased 45% over the 1994 quarter from 6.9% of
net sales to 8.2% of net sales.  Net income  increased  51% from  $1,167,000  to
$1,759,000. On a per share basis, net income increased from $.11 a share to $.16
a share, or 45%.

Inflation/Currency Fluctuation

         Inflation and currency  fluctuations have not previously had a material
impact on Inter-Tel's operations. International sales and procurement agreements
have traditionally been denominated in U.S.  currency.  Moreover,  a significant
amount of contract manufacturing has been or is expected to be moved to domestic
sources.  The expansion of  international  operations in the United  Kingdom and
Europe and  anticipated  sales in Japan and Asia and  elsewhere  could result in
higher international sales as a percentage of total revenues,  but international
operations currently do not present a significant currency risk.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

         The Company  currently has a $5 million Credit Agreement with Bank One,
Arizona, N.A., which is being used primarily to support international letters of
credit to suppliers.

         The Company  funds its  Totalease  program in part  through the sale to
financial  institutions  of rental income  streams  under the leases.  Totalease
rentals resold  totaling  $22.8 million  remain  unbilled at March 31, 1995. The
Company  maintains  reserves against  potential  recourse  following the resales
based upon loss experience and past due accounts.

         The  Company  will  continue  to expand its dealer  network,  which may
require working capital for increased receivables and inventories.

         The Company  believes that its working  capital and credit  facilities,
together  with  cash  generated  from  operations,  will be  sufficient  to fund
purchases of capital equipment, finance usual acquisitions which the Company may
consider  and  provide  adequate  working  capital for the  foreseeable  future.
However,  to the extent that  additional  funds may be required in the future to
address working  capital needs and to provide funding for capital  expenditures,
expansion of the business or additional acquisitions,  the Company will consider
additional financing.
