  (3)  COMMON STOCK EQUIVALENTS

  For the three months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, net income per common and
  common equivalent share was determined by dividing net income by the weighted
  average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding during the
  period.  Common equivalent shares, primarily resulting from dilutive stock
  options and warrants, were converted using the treasury stock method.

REVENUE

The Company's revenue primarily includes the sale and support of its Channelink
products for the high-performance networking market and licensing, sale, and
support of its Brixton hardware and software products for the enterprise-wide
application access and interoperability market.

Revenue increased 19% for the three months ended March 31, 1996 when compared to
the same period in 1995.  Revenue from the Channelink product line totaled $19.1
million, an increase of 24% when compared to $15.4 million in the first quarter
of 1995.  Revenue from the Brixton product line totaled $3.3 million, an
increase of  11% when compared to $2.9 million in the first quarter of 1995.

Revenue from product sales totaled $17.4 million, an increase of $2.8 million or
19% during the three months ended March 31, 1996 when compared to the same
period in 1995.  The 

                                       7
<PAGE>
 
increase in product sales primarily resulted from the sale of the Company's
Channelink products for network-based storage applications to two new OEM
customers. During the first quarter of 1996, the Company entered into an
agreement to provide network-based storage connectivity products to IBM. The
contract, which runs through December 31, 1996, is expected to provide
approximately $7 million of revenue to the Company. During the first quarter of
1996, the Company recognized approximately $1.7 million of the expected revenue
under this agreement. In addition, direct sales of the Company's Channelink
products to end user customers in North America also increased during the first
quarter of 1996 when compared to the same period in 1995.

Revenue from service fees, which primarily reflects purchased maintenance
service from the Company's technical support personnel, increased 20% for the
three- month period ended March 31, 1996 when compared to the same period in
1995.  This increase primarily resulted from the growing installed base of
customers using the Company's Channelink and Brixton products.

The Company derived approximately 26% and 33% of its revenue from international
customers for the three-month periods ended March 31, 1996 and 1995,
respectively.  The percentage of revenue derived from international customers
for any given period is subject to fluctuation because of the variable timing of
sizable orders from customers both internationally and in North America, and the
Company does not believe that these results are indicative of a trend toward
less international revenue as a percentage of total revenue.

Throughout most of 1995, the Company attempted to use its existing Channelink
sales force to sell Brixton products.  The Company has determined that this
approach diverted sales focus away from the Company's traditional Channelink
market and was not an effective approach for the sale of Brixton products.  As a
result, the Company has hired additional sales and marketing personnel to focus
exclusively on market opportunities for Brixton products and services through
direct sales and alternate distribution channels.  In addition, the Company has
hired additional pre-sales and post-sales systems engineers dedicated to the
support of the Brixton product line.

While the Company believes that the market for traditional data center
consolidation applications for its Channelink products has matured, it believes
that additional network-based storage applications should result in continuing
demand for its Channelink products. In addition, the Company will continue to
pursue the sale of its Channelink products through alternate distribution
channels. The levels of Channelink revenue reported by the Company in any given
period have been, and will continue to be impacted by, among other things, the
timing of the introduction of certain storage products by IBM.

The Company believes that the improved product function associated with new
Brixton products released in 1995 and the anticipated growth in market size,
coupled with the increase in the number of employees dedicated to the marketing
and sale of the Brixton products, should result in increased Brixton revenue in
1996.

In 1996, the Company believes service fees for its Channelink and Brixton
product lines will grow at approximately the same rate as the installed base of
these products.

                                       8
<PAGE>
 
The Company expects to continue to see quarter-to-quarter fluctuations in
revenue.  The timing of sizable orders, because of their relative impact on
total quarterly sales, may contribute to such fluctuations.

As a result of the Company's strategy to hire a separate sales and marketing
organization dedicated exclusively to the Brixton market, the introduction of
additional network-based storage applications for its Channelink products, and
the Company's existing $7 million OEM agreement with IBM, the Company believes
revenue in 1996 will increase when compared to 1995.

SPECIAL CHARGES

In connection with the management reorganization announced by the Company in the
fourth quarter of 1995, the Company issued a common equity put option to a
former officer and director.  The Company has adjusted compensation expense in
the current period, and will be required to adjust compensation expense in
future periods, as the market price of its common stock increases or decreases
until such time as the Company has no remaining obligation pursuant to the
common equity put option.  The adjustment to compensation expense due to the
increase in the market price of the Company's common stock for the three months
ended March 31, 1996 has been reflected as a $315,000 reduction in engineering
and development expense.

GROSS PROFIT

For the three months ended March 31, 1996, the gross profit margin from product
sales was 65%, as compared to 72% for the same period of 1995.  The decrease in
gross margins from product sales primarily resulted from the sale of lower
margin network-based storage connectivity products to IBM, and a charge of
approximately $800,000 for inventory obsolescence.

As a result of continuing worldwide competition, and continued sales of its
lower margin network- based storage connectivity products, the Company
anticipates that its gross profit margins on sales of its Channelink products
will be somewhat lower for the remainder of 1996 when compared to the same
periods of 1995.  The Company believes that the anticipated decrease in gross
profit margins from its Channelink products for the remainder of 1996 may be
offset somewhat by an increase in the percentage of product sales coming from
the Company's higher margin Brixton software products.  Actual gross profit
margins on product sales in 1996 will depend on a number of factors, including
the mix of products, market acceptance of the Brixton product line, the relative
amount of products sold through indirect distribution channels, the requirement
to pay licensing fees for the right to use certain technology, and the level of
continuing price competition.

Gross profit margins from service fees were 20% and 17% during the three months
ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively.  The increase in gross profit
margins from service fees primarily resulted from a steadily increasing base of
installed Channelink units covered by maintenance contracts, which provides for
economies of scale.  The Company anticipates that it will make additional
investments in its service business, particularly to support the Brixton 

                                       9
<PAGE>
 
product line. The Company currently anticipates that gross profit margins from
its service business for the remainder of 1996 will be somewhat lower when
compared to the first quarter of 1996.

OPERATING EXPENSES

During the first quarter of 1996, the Company continued to expand its sales and
marketing organizations, with a particular  emphasis on new employees dedicated
to the Brixton product line.  Sales and marketing expenses increased 69% during
the three months ended March 31, 1996 when compared to the same period of 1995.
The increase is primarily attributable to an increase in compensation expense
and other costs associated with the continued expansion of the Company's sales
organization, including fringe benefits, travel, recruitment, and occupancy
costs. The Company anticipates that sales and marketing expenses will be higher
through the remainder of 1996 when compared to the same period of 1995 due to
the expense associated with the additional sales and marketing employees hired
in recent quarters.

Engineering and development costs, primarily consisting of compensation and
related fringe benefits, depreciation, and consulting expenses related to new
product development and enhancements to existing products increased
approximately 15% during the three months ended March 31, 1996, when compared to
the same period of 1995.  The increase is primarily attributable to an increase
in expenditures for engineering prototype materials and supplies.  Engineering
and development expenses, excluding the impact of the previously discussed
common equity put option, were approximately 15% of revenue for both the three
months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995.  The Company anticipates investing
approximately 14% of total revenue on engineering and development in 1996,
(excluding the impact of the common equity put option) which includes
investments in current and future products.  The Company believes a sustained
high level of investment is essential to customer satisfaction and future
revenue.

General and administrative expenses increased approximately 30% during the three
months ended March 31, 1996 as compared to the same period in 1995.  The
increase primarily relates to higher contract labor, consulting, and shareholder
expenses.  General and administrative expenses were 8% of total revenue for the
three months ended March 31, 1996, as compared to 7% of total revenue during the
same period of 1995.

The Company anticipates that general and administrative expenses will be
approximately 7% of revenue in 1996.

The Company recorded a provision for income taxes at an effective tax rate of
35% for the three months ended March 31, 1996, as compared to 39% during the
same period of 1995.  The Company currently anticipates that its effective tax
for the remainder of 1996 will be approximately 35%.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Beginning in 1996, the Company has adopted the provisions of Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 "Accounting for Stock Based Compensation"
("SFAS No. 123").  Under SFAS No. 123, companies are permitted to adopt a new
method of accounting for stock compensation awards which is based on recognition
of a charge equal to the estimated fair value of the award on the date of grant.
Alternatively, companies may continue using the methodology specified in APB No.
25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" to account for stock based
compensation, with expanded disclosure in the notes to the annual  financial
statements of the pro forma effects on net income and earnings per share,
assuming application of the new accounting method outlined in SFAS No. 123.
Adoption of this new pronouncement has not had a significant impact on the
Company's financial position or results of operations.

                              FINANCIAL CONDITION

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company has historically financed its operations through the private and
public sales of equity securities, bank borrowings under lines of credit,
capital equipment leases, and cash generated from operations.

Cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities at March 31, 1996 totaled
$29.2 million, an increase of $.8 million during the first three months of 1996.
This increase resulted from a $2.8 million increase due to cash provided by
operations, financing activities (primarily consisting of proceeds from the
exercise of employee stock options), and the effects of exchange rate changes,
partially offset by the cash used for investing in property and equipment, field
support spares and other assets of $2.0 million.

Expenditures for capital equipment and field support spares have been, and will
likely continue to be, a significant capital requirement.  The Company plans to
continue to invest aggressively in productivity tools for its employees and in
its field support spares.

The Company believes that its current balances of cash, cash equivalents, and
marketable securities, when combined with anticipated cash flow from operations,
will be adequate to fund its operating plans and meet its currently anticipated
aggregate capital requirements, at least through 1996.  However, if the Company
does not generate revenue as expected or incurs unanticipated expenses, or needs
additional investment funds to react to changes in its marketplace, it may need
additional capital earlier or in amounts greater than would otherwise be
required.

The Company believes that inflation has not had a material impact on its
operations or liquidity to date.

FORWARD LOOKING INFORMATION

The matters discussed in this Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations regarding future results and requirements
are forward looking statements.  These statements involve risk and uncertainties
in addition to the factors discussed above, including market acceptance of the
Brixton products, the availability of new employees experienced in the Brixton
marketplace, growth and timing of new applications for the Company's Channelink
products, particularly in the area of network-based storage, uncertainties due
to the Company's recently announced management reorganization, including its
ability to retain a new Chief Executive Officer, changes in general economic
conditions, cost and availability of components, and fluctuations in foreign
exchange rates.  In addition, the markets for the Company's products are
characterized by significant competition, and the Company's results may be
adversely affected by the actions of existing or future competitors, including
the development of new technologies, the introduction of new products, and the
reduction of prices by such competitors to gain or retain market share.
