Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements - Unaudited

1. Basis of presentation

     On May 29, 1996, Brooktrout Technology, Inc. (the "Company") acquired
Technically Speaking, Inc. ("TSI") in a transaction which was accounted for as a
pooling-of-interests. All financial data of the Company, including the Company's
previously issued financial statements for the periods presented in this Form
10-Q, have been restated to include the historical financial information of TSI.

     In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the
audited consolidated financial statements and include all adjustments,
consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair
presentation of the interim periods presented.

     The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have
been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission regarding interim financial reporting.
Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required
by generally accepted accounting principles and should be read in conjunction
with the audited consolidated financial statements incorporated by reference in
or included in the Company's 1995 Annual Reports on Form 10K and 10K/A and to
the audited supplemental consolidated financial statements included in the
Company's registration statement on Form S-3 dated August 6, 1996.

     The operating results for the interim periods presented are not necessarily
indicative of the results which could be expected for the full year.

2. Net income per share

     Net income per common and per common equivalent share are computed using
the weighted average number of common and dilutive common equivalent shares
outstanding during the period. Dilutive common equivalent shares represent
shares issuable upon exercise of stock options, calculated using the treasury
stock method.

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

                              RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Three Months Ended September 30, 1996 and 1995

     Revenue during the three months ended September 30, 1996 increased by
approximately 63% to $15,874,000, up from $9,751,000 during the three months
ended September 30, 1995. This growth was primarily attributable to increased
shipments of TR Series products combined with increased shipments of OEM voice
systems. Increased sales reflect the growth of the principal market segments
served by the Company's products, especially the manufacture and sale of fax
products for use on local area networks and the manufacture and sale of fax and
OEM systems.

     Cost of product sold was $7,148,000, or 45% of revenue, during the three
months ended September 30, 1996, compared to $4,177,000, or 43% of revenue, for
the same period in 1995. Gross profit percentage was approximately 55% and 57%
for the three months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. The
decrease in gross profit percentage is the result of a lower proportion of
software relating to Show N Tel products which has a relatively low cost of
product sold.

     Research and development expense was $1,799,000, or 11% of revenue,
compared with $1,181,000, or 12% of revenue, for the three months ended
September 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. The dollar increase in 1996 reflects
the Company's continuing development efforts for its TR Series product family
and computer telephony development tools, as well as fax and OEM systems
development. The Company intends to continue to commit significant resources to
product development and expects that research and development expenditures will
be approximately 13% to 15% of revenue for the foreseeable future.

     Selling, general and administrative expense was $3,558,000 during the three
months ended September 30, 1996, compared with $2,219,000 during the same period
in 1995. This higher expense level resulted from increased staffing, promotional
activities and travel expenses. As a percentage of revenue, selling, general and
administrative expense for the third quarter of 1996 was 22% of revenue,
compared with 23% for the third quarter of 1995.


<PAGE>   10

     For the three months ended September 30, 1996, interest and other income
was $328,000, compared with $275,000 for the same period in 1995.

     The Company's effective tax rate, adjusted for significant permanent or
other differences occurring within a quarter, was 40% for the third quarter of
1996, based on the Company's estimated effective tax rate for the full year, and
25% for the third quarter of 1995. In 1995, TSI amounts included in income were
not subject to tax at the corporate level and accordingly, the effective tax
rate in 1995 was reduced.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 1996 and 1995

     Revenue during the nine months ended September 30, 1996 increased by
approximately 57% to $40,619,000, up from $25,881,000 during the nine months
ended September 30, 1995. This revenue increase was attributable to increased TR
Series products coupled with increased shipments of OEM voice systems. Increased
sales reflect the growth of the principal market segments served by the
Company's products, especially the manufacture and sale of fax products for use
on local area networks and the manufacture and sale of fax and OEM systems.

     Cost of product sold was $17,953,000, or 44% of revenue, during the nine
months ended September 30, 1996, compared to $11,929,000, or 46% of revenue in
1995. Gross profit percentage was 56% and 54% for the nine months ended
September 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. The increase in gross profit
percentage is the result of a much higher proportion of TR Series product
shipments, which carry a comparatively higher gross margin than OEM systems,
coupled with decreases in product costs on OEM systems.

     Research and development expense was $5,047,000, or 12% of revenue,
compared with $3,331,000, or 13% of revenue, for the nine months ended September
30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. The dollar increase in 1996 reflects the
Company's continuing development efforts for its TR Series product family and
computer telephony development tools, as well as fax and OEM systems
development. As a result of the increase in the Company's revenue base, however,
the percentage remained comparable.

     Selling, general and administrative expense was $9,796,000 during the nine
months ended September 30, 1996, compared with $6,166,000 during the same period
in 1995. This higher expense level resulted from increased staffing, travel
expenses and promotional activities. As a percentage, selling, general and
administrative expense was 24% of revenue in 1996 and 1995.


<PAGE>   11

     During the nine months ended September 30, 1996, the Company incurred
approximately $1.2 million in costs related to the acquisition of and merger
with Technically Speaking, Inc. These costs related to professional fees for
legal and accounting advice, investment banking fees, and certain costs related
to the integration of the operations of the two companies.

     For the nine months ended September 30, 1996, interest and other income was
$837,000, compared with $695,000 for the same period in 1995.

     The Company's effective tax rate was 45% and 33% for the nine months ended
September 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. In 1995, TSI amounts included in
income were not subject to tax at the corporate level and accordingly, the
effective tax rate in 1995 was reduced.


<PAGE>   12
Liquidity and Capital Resources

     For the nine months ended September 30, 1996, the Company funded its
operations principally through operating revenue. In July 1996, the Company
renewed its working capital line of credit. Under the renewed line of credit,
the Company may borrow up to $7,500,000 on an unsecured basis, all of which may
be used for issuance of letters of credit, subject to compliance with certain
covenants. The line of credit will expire in July 1997 and at that time any
outstanding balances would be payable in full. Any amounts borrowed under the
line would be subject to interest at the bank's prime rate. At September 30,
1996 there were no commitments outstanding on letters of credit; no borrowings
have been made during any period presented.

     The Company's working capital increased from $24.8 million at December 31,
1995 to $37.9 million at September 30, 1996. The increase was attributable, in
part, to higher cash balances and investments, accounts receivable, inventory,
deferred tax asset, and prepaid expense balances which were partially offset by
higher accounts payable and accrued compensation and commission balances. The
Company's aggregate cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities position
increased as a result of cash flows from operations and the proceeds from the
sale of stock offset by an increase in working capital and expenditures for
equipment and furniture.

     During the first nine months of 1996, the Company invested approximately
$2.7 million in capital equipment. The Company currently has no material
commitments for additional capital expenditures.

     The Company anticipates that cash flows from operations, together with
current cash and marketable securities balances and funds available under the
Company's line of credit, will be sufficient to meet the Company's working
capital and capital equipment expenditure requirements for the foreseeable
future.
