                          Note to Financial Statements


1.   Accounting Policy:

     The information included in the foregoing interim financial statements is
     unaudited. Accordingly, the financial statements should be read in
     conjunction with the financial statement disclosures contained in the 1995
     Annual Report of Applied Innovation Inc. (the Company). In the opinion of
     management, the accompanying financial statements reflect all adjustments
     necessary (which are of a normal recurring nature) to fairly present the
     financial position and results of operations and cash flows for the interim
     periods presented, but are not necessarily indicative of the results of
     operations for a full fiscal year.

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

RESULTS OF THE SECOND QUARTER ENDED JUNE 30, 1996 VS. SECOND QUARTER ENDED JUNE
30, 1995

Revenue for the second quarter of 1996 increased 6.3% over the same period of
1995. Year-to-date revenue for 1996 is up 7.2% over 1995. This increase is
attributable to a higher number of units sold. Because of the Company's
concentration of sales to Regional Bell Operating Companies (RBOC's) and
inter-exchange carriers, a small number of customers have represented
substantial portions of revenue. For the first six months of 1996, sales to
three companies comprised 65% of total revenue. Each of the three customers
contributed between 15% and 31% of total revenue. The Company continues to sell
to six of the seven RBOC's.

Gross profit as a percentage of revenue was 53.3% for the second quarter of 1996
versus 64.0% for the same period in 1995. Year-to-date gross profit percentages
were 58.2% and 64.4% for 1996 and 1995, respectively. The reduction in gross
profit as a percentage of revenue in the current quarter and for the first six
months was due to a change in product mix, costs incurred to support and upgrade
certain installed products pending release of new products, and increased
product warranty expenses.

Research and development (R&D) expenses increased to $1,612,615 for the second
quarter of 1996 from $1,293,496 for the same period in 1995. R&D increased as a
percentage of revenue to 14.1% from 12.0%. Year-to-date R&D expenses were
$3,397,893 for 1996 and $2,286,527 for 1995. As a percentage of revenue, this
represents 16.7% for 1996 and 12.0% for 1995. The Company anticipates increased
R&D expenses in future quarters to support its existing product lines and to
develop an Internet access product for its telecommunication company customers.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $2,437,728 in the
second quarter of 1996 from $2,062,316 in 1995. As a percentage of revenue, this
represents 21.3% in 1996 and 19.2% in 1995. Year-to-date selling, general and
administrative expenses represented 22.6% of revenue in 1996 and 21.3% in 1995.
To support continued growth, the Company expects additional increases in
personnel and related costs during 1996.

As a result of the above factors, income from operations decreased by 42.1% to
$2,038,905 in the second quarter of 1996 versus $3,521,261 in the second quarter
of 1995. Second quarter income from operations represents 17.8% and 32.8% of
revenue in 1996 and 1995, respectively. Year-to-date income from operations was
$3,847,262 for 1996 and $5,890,521 in 1995. Year-to-date income from operations
represents 18.9% and 31.0% of revenue in 1996 and 1995, respectively.

The Company's effective income tax rate was 38.5% for the current quarter versus
an effective rate of 38.0% for the same period in 1995.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Net working capital was $19,759,919 at June 30, 1996 compared to $17,498,683 at
December 31, 1995. Current ratios on those dates were 9.7:1 and 6.7:1,
respectively. The Company had no long-term debt at June 30, 1996 or December 31,
1995.

Net capital expenditures were $1,073,093 for the first half of 1996. The Company
anticipates opening a satellite R&D facility in North Carolina later this year.
The new facility may require some initial capital expenditures to be fully
functional.

The Company has an unsecured revolving line of credit from a bank totaling
$5,000,000. Interest on the outstanding balance is payable monthly at the London
Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) plus 2 percent. Unpaid principal is due March 31,
1998. The Company is in compliance with all related loan covenants.
At June 30, 1996, the full $5,000,000 amount of the line was available.

The Company expects existing cash reserves, future operating profits, and
borrowing capabilities to be sufficient to meet future operating and capital
expenditures for the next 12 months.

The foregoing statements include forward-looking assumptions which involve risks
and uncertainties. The Company's actual experience may differ from that
projected above. Factors that might cause such a difference include, but are not
limited to, economic, competitive, and technological developments; other factors
discussed in the Company's prior filings with the Securities and Exchange
Commission; and future events that may have the effect of reducing the Company's
available cash balances and materially affect its operating results, such as
unexpected operating losses or capital expenditures.
