                                BROOKTROUT, INC.
         UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF INCOME

The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements of
Brooktrout, Inc. ("Brooktrout") are based on the historical consolidated
financial statements of Brooktrout, and give pro forma effect to the sale by
Interspeed, Inc., a subsidiary of Brooktrout, ("Interspeed") of 2,000,000 shares
of common stock in its initial public offering at a price of $12 per share and
an additional 1,500,000 secondary shares of Interspeed's common stock sold by
Brooktrout (together, the "Offering"). The unaudited pro forma condensed
consolidated statements of operations for the six months ended June 30, 1999 and
for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1998 give effect to the Offering as if it
occurred at the beginning of the earliest period presented. Such statements do
not include the effect of the $16.7 million nonrecurring gain ($10,044 net of
tax) from the sale by Brooktrout of 1,500,000 secondary shares of common stock
of Interspeed. In addition the statements do not include interest income on the
proceeds from the sale by Brooktrout of 1,500,000 secondary shares of common
stock of Interspeed of approximately $500,000 and $264,000 for the year ended
December 31, 1998 and the six months ended June 30, 1999, respectively. Such
amounts may not be indicative of future interest income as Brooktrout has not
currently determined the future use of such proceeds. The unaudited pro forma
adjustments described in the accompanying notes are based on certain assumptions
that we believe are reasonable.

For the periods presented, operating expenses of Interspeed include allocations
of general corporate overhead expenses related to Brooktrout's corporate
headquarters and common support activities, including payroll administration,
worker's compensation and general liability insurance, accounting and finance,
legal, tax and human resources. These costs have been allocated to Interspeed
using methodologies primarily based on headcount and usage. Interspeed has
entered into a Transition Services Agreement with Brooktrout, pursuant to which
Brooktrout will continue to provide certain services to Interspeed during a
transition period. There can be no assurance that Brooktrout will be able to
reduce such overhead and other costs currently allocated to Interspeed upon
completion of the Transition Services Agreement.

During the transition period, Interspeed is building its own capabilities to
provide these services. The cost of services provided by Brooktrout may not be
indicative of the costs that Interspeed will incur in the future.

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements and related
notes are provided for informational purposes only and are not necessarily
indicative of the consolidated financial position or results of operations of
Brooktrout as they may be in the future or as they might have been had the
Offering been effected on the assumed dates. You should read the unaudited pro
forma condensed consolidated financial statements in conjunction with, and such
statements are qualified in their entirety by, the historical financial
statements of Brooktrout, and the related notes thereto.

                                  PRESS RELEASE

    BROOKTROUT ANNOUNCES INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING OF ITS INTERSPEED SUBSIDIARY

        Brooktrout to Realize Pre-Tax Gain of Approximately $16.7 Million

Needham, Mass., September 24, 1999 - Brooktrout, Inc. (NASDAQ: BRKT) announced
that its Interspeed subsidiary has commenced an initial public offering today
(see separate Interspeed, Inc. release), selling 2 million primary shares of
common stock at $12 per share. In the offering Brooktrout is selling an
additional 1.5 million secondary shares of Interspeed common stock. Brooktrout
expects to recognize a pre-tax gain of approximately $16.7 million in connection
with the transaction in its third quarter ending September 30, 1999. Following
the completion of the offering, Interspeed will operate as an independent
entity. Brooktrout will continue to own approximately 6.5 million shares of
Interspeed's common stock, or approximately 61% of the shares outstanding, with
a market value of $78 million based on the initial offering price to the public.

"Brooktrout was committed to unlocking the value of Interspeed for its
shareholders," said Eric Giler, president of Brooktrout, Inc. "The pre-tax
proceeds we will receive from the IPO, combined with the value of Interspeed
stock that will be retained by Brooktrout, (based on the initial offering price
to the public) equals approximately $95 million. We invested in Interspeed
because we believe in the market potential of its products and the ability and
expertise of its management team to compete successfully. The capital to be
raised in the IPO will help Interspeed run independently and compete more
effectively in the DSL marketplace."

Except for historical information contained in this release, there may be
forward-looking statements that do not give full weight to all the potential
risks including, but not limited to, product demand and market acceptance, rapid
changes in technology, the impact of competition and the integration of acquired
companies. Actual results may differ materially. Additional Information
concerning those and other factors is contained in the "Risk Factors" section of
the Registration Statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on
June 26, 1996.
