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 subsidiaries
(the "Company"). 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 December 31,
1997.
2. ACQUISITIONS
SYNAPTEL
In 1996 the Company acquired all the capital stock of Synaptel, S.A.,
("Synaptel"), a French company, for approximately $19,000,000. This
acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting
from the effective date of the acquisition. The total purchase
consideration in excess of the fair value of the tangible and
identified intangible assets acquired is included in goodwill.
Identified intangibles acquired included approximately $11,600,000 of
in-process research and development, $4,230,000 of developed technology
and $415,000 related to Synaptel's assembled workforce. Acquired in-
process research and development activities had no alternative future
use and had not achieved technological feasibility and were expensed in
June 1996.
In addition to the purchase consideration discussed above, the purchase
agreement included provisions for additional consideration of
$3,500,000 cash and 450,000 options to purchase the Company's common
stock at an exercise price of $18.50 per share if Synaptel attains
certain revenue and operating income targets through 1998. The actual
cash earn-out and number of employee stock options may increase or
decrease depending upon performance against targets. The cash payments
pursuant to these provisions will be accounted for as additional
purchase consideration when payment is probable. The compensatory
elements, if any, for these stock options will be expensed over the
exercise periods.
<PAGE>
ACQUIRED PRODUCT RIGHTS
In June 1996, the Company acquired the rights to manufacture, market,
and sell certain FDDI products from Cisco for a purchase price of
$2,500,000. The acquired product rights are included in acquired
developed technology in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
3. NET INCOME (LOSS) PER COMMON AND COMMON EQUIVALENT
SHARE
The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
("SFAS") No. 128, "Earnings per Share," for its December 31, 1997
consolidated financial statements. As a result, the Company's reported
earnings per share for the three month and six month periods ended June
30, 1997 are restated. Under SFAS NO. 128, basic earnings per common
share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number
of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted
earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income by the
weighted average of common stock and common stock equivalents
outstanding during the period. (Amounts in thousands)

1998, and 1997, respectively, as such options were anti-dilutive.

4. CREDIT FACILITY
Prior to and in conjunction with the Synaptel acquisition discussed in
Note 2, the Company entered into a credit facility with BankOne Texas
NA. The credit facility consists of an $8,500,000 acquisition term
loan, a $2,500,000 equipment financing facility and a $5,000,000
revolving credit facility. The facility is a two-year facility with
an annual renewal provision, and bears interest at the bank's base rate
(currently 8.5%). The term loan is payable in equal quarterly
installments of $548,000 plus accrued interest with final payment due
November 30, 2001. The Company has the ability to satisfy the
quarterly payments on the term notes through borrowings under the
revolving credit component of the credit facility. The revolving
portion of the loan is due June 30, 2000. The credit facility is
collateralized by marketable securities, assignment of accounts
receivable and equipment. The credit facility includes certain
restrictive financial covenants including, among others, tangible net
worth, total liabilities to tangible net worth, interest coverage,
quick ratio, debt service coverage, and is subject to a borrowing base
calculation. At June 30, 1998, the Company had borrowings of
$10,644,000 and remaining availability under the revolving credit
facility was $1,500,000.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 1998 ("second quarter
1998") were $16,087,000. Revenues for the same period in 1997
("comparative period") were $18,379,000. The decrease in revenues
from the comparative period was attributable to declines in FDDI, SCSI,
and Ethernet product revenues, partially offset by an approximate 800%
increase in Fibre Channel product revenues.
LAN product revenues, consisting of FDDI, Ethernet, ATM and Fast
Ethernet, represented 69% of total revenues for the second quarter
1998, as compared to 77% for the comparative period. FDDI product
revenues declined 45%, Ethernet product revenues declined 51%, ATM
product revenues declined 16% and Fast Ethernet product revenues
declined 17% as compared to the comparative period. FDDI, Ethernet,
ATM and Fast Ethernet product revenues represented 19%, 4%, 6% and 32%
of total revenues, respectively for the second quarter 1998.
Mass storage product revenues, consisting of SCSI and Fibre Channel
adapter cards, represented 20% of total revenues for the second quarter
1998, as compared to 10% for the comparative period. SCSI product
revenues declined 42% while Fibre Channel product revenues increased
approximately 800% over the comparative period.
WAN product revenues comprised 9% of revenues for the second quarter
1998, as compared to 10% for the comparative period. WAN product
revenues declined 18% as compared to the comparative period.
Geographically, North America revenues comprised 82% of consolidated
revenues in the second quarter 1998 compared to 79% in the comparative
period. European revenues comprised 16% of consolidated revenues in
the second quarter 1998 and 18% in the comparative period. Pacific Rim
revenues comprised 2% of consolidated revenues in the second quarter
1998 and 3% in the comparative period .
Revenues for the six month period ended June 30, 1998 were $33,676,000
as compared to $35,237,000 for the comparative period. Revenues from
LAN, Mass Storage and WAN products were 71%, 20% and 8% of total
revenues respectively, for the six month period ended June 30, 1998.
The Company's current marketing strategy is to increase market
penetration through sales to major OEM customers. One of these
customers accounted for approximately 39% of the Company's revenue for
the second quarter of 1998.
The gross margin percentage for the three month periods ended June 30,
1998 and 1997 was approximately 50%. The gross margin percentages for
the six month period ended June 30, 1998 and 1997 were 48% and 49%
respectively.
<PAGE>
Operating expenses for the three month period ended June 30, 1998 were
$6,757,000 as compared to $7,989,000 for the comparable period.
Operating expenses for the six month period ended June 30, 1998 were
$13,338,000 as compared to $15,533,000 for the comparable period. The
reduction in operating expenses is due management's disciplined focus
to control expenses and improve efficiencies in all areas of the
Company.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities
aggregated $6,791,000 at June 30, 1998, and $5,519,000 at December 31,
1997. The Company's improved cash position is primarily due to
profitable operations and reduction in inventory, partially off-set by
reductions in accounts payable, payment for machinery, equipment and
capitalized software, and payment of debt. In the next twelve months,
scheduled debt payments on the Company's credit facility are
approximately $2,192,000.
The Company expects that its cash, cash equivalents, marketable
securities and proceeds from its credit facility will be adequate to
meet foreseeable needs for the next 12 months.
