               NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.   BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying consolidated interim financial statements include the accounts
of Interphase Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiary.  Significant
intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

While the accompanying interim financial statements are unaudited, they have
been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission. In the opinion of the Company, all material
adjustments and disclosures necessary to fairly present the results of such
periods have been made.  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 the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  These financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial
statements and notes thereto for the year ended October 31, 1994.


2.   NET INCOME PER COMMON AND COMMON EQUIVALENT SHARE


Net income per common and common equivalent share is computed using the weighted
average number of outstanding shares and common equivalent shares.  The dilutive
impact of outstanding stock options have been considered under the treasury
stock method using the greater of the average bid price or closing bid price for
the period.  In 1994, the impact of outstanding stock options and warrants was
antidilutive and therefore, has been excluded from the computation of net loss
per share in 1994.

Weighted average common and common equivalent shares:

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


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Revenues for the three months ended July 31, 1995 increased $2,370,000 or
approximately 24% to $12,356,000 as compared to $9,986,000 for the same period
in 1994.  Networking products represented a growth of 24% over the same period
in 1994.  Which consisted of a 33% growth in FDDI product revenues, partially
offset by a 18% decline in older ethernet product revenues.  Asynchronous
Transfer Mode ("ATM") products continued to grow as compared to the respective
quarter in 1994, and comprised approximately 4% of total revenues for the third
quarter of 1995.   FDDI revenues approximated 46% of total revenues in the third
quarter of 1995.  Networking products in total comprised 62% of total revenue
for the third quarter of 1995.   Mass storage product revenues increased
approximately 21% in the third quarter of 1995 compared to 1994.  The growth in
the mass storage product revenues is attributable to the increase in SCSI
adapter cards revenues, which increased approximately 32%, and more than offset
the decline in older storage product revenues during the same period.  Mass
storage product revenues comprised approximately 34% of total revenues in the
third quarter of 1995, compared to 35% of total revenues in the third quarter of
1994.  Geographically, domestic revenues comprised 89% of consolidated revenues.
European revenues comprised 7% of consolidated revenues in the third quarter of
1995 compared to 10% in the third quarter of 1994.

Revenues for the nine months ended July 31, 1995 increased $5,835,000 or 20% to
$34,851,000 as compared to $29,016,000 for the same period in fiscal 1994.
Revenues from networking products comprised 59% of consolidated revenue for the
nine months ended July 31, 1995, as compared to 60% of consolidated revenues for
the same period in fiscal 1994. Revenue from mass storage products were
unchanged, comprising 36% for the nine months ending July 31, 1995 and
comprising 36% for the same period in fiscal 1994.

The gross margin percentage for the three months ended July 31, 1995 was
approximately 49% as compared to approximately 50% during the same period in
1994.  The gross margin percentage for the nine months ended July 31, 1995 was
approximately 50% as compared to approximately 49% during the same period in
1994.

Operating expenses for the three months ended July 31, 1995 were $5,036,000,
representing approximately 41% of consolidated revenue, as compared to 44% for
the same period in 1994.    Operating  expenses increased 14% over the same
period in 1994, due primarily to expenses associated with reorganizing the
European operations, volume related selling expenses and incremental development
engineering expenses. Operating expenses for the nine months ended July 31,
1995 were $14,572,000, representing approximately 42% of consolidated
revenue excluding the provision for strategic realignment recorded in the
first quarter 1994, and increased $99,000 from the same period in 1994. As a
percentage of revenues operating expenses for the nine months ended July 31,
1995 decreased from 54% in 1994 to 42% in 1995.  The decreased spending
relative to sales is primarily the result of cost reduction actions initiated
in early 1994 and management's continued focus on controlling operating
expenses.

The company reported a net income of $745,000 for the three months ended July
31, 1995 as compared to $389,000 for the same period in fiscal 1994.  The
company reported a net income of  $1,995,000 for the nine months ended July 31,
1995 as compared to a net loss of ($887,000) for this same period in fiscal
1994.  The increase in profitability in 1995 compared to 1994 is primarily due
to higher sales volumes and lower operating expenses relative to revenue
levels.  In addition, the nine month ended July 31, 1994 included a before tax
provision for strategic realignment of $1,148,000.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's cash , cash equivalents and marketable securities aggregated
$11,095,000 at July 31, 1995, $11,534,000 at October 31, 1994 and $9,860,000 at
July 31, 1994.  The improvement in cash position from July 31, 1994 to July 31,
1995 is primarily the result of increased profitability since the third quarter
of 1994.  The company expects that its cash, cash equivalents and marketable
securities will be adequate to meet foreseeable needs for the next 12 months.
