(1) These periods have been restated to reflect the Merger of Radius and
SuperMac which has been accounted for as a pooling of interests. See Note 10 of
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements. The consolidated financial
statements for all periods prior to fiscal 1994 have not been restated to adjust
SuperMac's fiscal year end to that of Radius. Such periods include Radius'
results of operations and balance sheet data on a September 30 fiscal year basis
and SuperMac's on a December 31 calendar year basis. The operating results for
both the twelve months ended September 30, 1994 and September 30, 1993 include
the restructuring and other charges of $16.6 million recorded by SuperMac in
December 1993.

FISCAL 1995 COMPARED TO FISCAL 1994

Net Sales. The Company's net sales decreased 5.1% to $308.1 million in fiscal
1995 from $324.8 million in fiscal 1994. Fiscal 1995 net sales were reduced by
approximately $11.4 million due to reserves taken by the Company in anticipation
of future price reductions on a number its graphics cards, MacOS compatible
systems and other products that are designed for Apple's NuBus-based computers
which have been largely replaced by Apple's recently introduced PCI Bus-based
computers.

During the fiscal year, net sales of graphics cards declined substantially due
primarily to reduced demand resulting from Apple's incorporation of built-in
graphics capabilities in its PowerPC based Macintosh systems. Net sales from
displays, accelerator cards and printers also declined during the fiscal year.
These declines were largely offset

                                       -3-
<PAGE>   4
by sales of MacOS compatible systems which were first introduced in the 1995
fiscal year and by a substantial increase in net sales from the Company's color
server products.

While net sales from the Company's digital video products increased slightly
during the fiscal year, the Company anticipates lower revenue from this product
line until the introduction of new products now under development.

The Company anticipates significantly lower overall net sales in fiscal 1996 as
a result of the Company's decision to focus its efforts on providing solutions
for high end digital video and graphics customers, discontinue selling mass
market displays and other low value added products, and divest of certain
businesses such as color servers and MacOS compatible systems. Net sales
attributable to the Company's Color Server Group and MacOS compatible systems
were approximately $29.3 million and $21.8 million, respectively, for fiscal
1995. Had the net sales of these businesses not been included in net sales for
the 1995 fiscal year, the Company's net sales for such fiscal year would have
been approximately $257 million.

On December 23, 1995, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to sell
its color server business to Splash Technology, Inc., a company in which Radius
will retain a 19.9% equity interest, for approximately $21.9 million. That sale
is anticipated to be completed in January 1996. In addition the Company is now
negotiating to sell its MacOS compatible systems business and does not
anticipate significant net sales from this business during the 1996 fiscal year.

Export sales represented approximately 40.4%, 34.5%, and 32.0% of net sales for
fiscal 1995, 1994 and 1993, respectively. See Note 7 of Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements. Export sales are subject to the normal risks associated
with doing business in foreign countries such as currency fluctuations, longer
payment cycles, greater difficulties in accounts receivable collection, export
controls and other government regulations and, in some countries, a lesser
degree of intellectual property protection as compared to that provided under
the laws of the United States.

Gross Profit. The Company's gross profit margin including restructuring and
other charges declined to 1.7% in fiscal 1995, compared to 14.7%, in fiscal
1994. The Company's gross profit margin excluding the restructuring and other
charges declined to 16.9% in fiscal 1995, compared to 27.3% in fiscal 1994.
Excluding restructuring and other charges, the Company's gross profit margin
declined primarily due to lower sales of higher margin graphics cards, costs
incurred to process higher than expected product returns resulting from the
consolidation of the Radius and SuperMac product lines and slower than expected
sell through of its Radius Telecast digital video product, significant price
erosion on NuBus based MacOS compatible systems combined with high production
costs for these systems, the sale of end of life products, and increased pricing
pressures. The Company anticipates continued competitive pricing actions
resulting in declining prices in its industry.

In addition, the Color Server Group and MacOS businesses had gross profit of
approximately $9.8 million and ($19.2 million), respectively for fiscal 1995.
Had these businesses not been included in the calculation of the Company's gross
profit for 1995, gross profit for such fiscal year would have been approximately
$14.6 million, with a gross profit margin of approximately 5.7%.

Research and Development Expenses. Research and development expenses decreased
to $19.3 million (6.3% of net sales) in fiscal 1995 from $34.0 million (10.5% of
net sales) in fiscal 1994. The Company's research and development expenses in
fiscal 1994 included restructuring and other charges of $4.3 million. No
restructuring and other charges were included in research and development
expenses in fiscal 1995.

The decrease in research and development expenses during the fiscal year was
primarily due to the reduction of expenses as a result of the Company's
restructuring following the Merger. The merger-related restructuring resulted in
reduced costs primarily related to headcount, depreciation, and facilities.

While there can be no assurance that the Company's product development efforts
will result in commercially successful products, the Company believes that
development of new products and enhancement of existing products are essential
to its continued success, and management intends to continue to devote
substantial resources to research and new product development.

                                       -4-
<PAGE>   5
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and
administrative expenses including restructuring and other charges decreased to
$90.1 million (29.2% of net sales) in fiscal 1995 from $94.7 million (29.2% of
net sales) in fiscal 1994. Selling, general and administrative expenses
excluding restructuring and other charges decreased to $79.2 million (25.7% of
net sales) in fiscal 1995 from $84.0 million (25.9% of net sales) in fiscal
1994.

The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses during the fiscal
year was primarily due to the reduction of expenses as a result of the Company's
restructuring following the Merger. The merger-related restructuring resulted in
reduced costs primarily related to headcount, depreciation and facilities.

Provision for Income Taxes. The Company's annual combined federal and state
effective income tax rates were approximately (7.4%) (expense) in fiscal 1995
and 6% (benefit) in fiscal 1994. In fiscal 1995, the rate differs from the
combined statutory rate in effect during the period primarily as a result of the
impact of not benefiting the 1995 operating losses and the reversal of existing
deferred tax assets. The fiscal 1994 rate differs from the combined statutory
rate in effect during the period primarily as a result of non-deductible merger
related costs, the one time write-off of purchased research and development
which is not tax deductible and the impact of not benefiting a significant
portion of the 1994 operating loss.

FASB Statement 109 provides for the recognition of deferred tax assets if
realization of such assets is more likely than not. The Company's valuation
allowance reduced the deferred tax asset to the amount realizable. The Company
has provided a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets due
to uncertainties surrounding their realization. Due to the net losses reported
in the prior three years and as a result of the material changes in operations
reported in its 1995 fiscal fourth quarter, predictability of earnings in future
periods is uncertain. The Company will evaluate the realizability of the
deferred tax asset on a quarterly basis.

Net Loss. As a result of the above factors, net loss increased to $131.7 million
in fiscal 1995 from $77.5 million in fiscal 1994. The Color Server Group had net
income of approximately $3.5 million for fiscal 1995. Had this business not been
included in the calculation of the Company's net loss for fiscal 1995, the
Company would have had a net loss of approximately $135.2 million for such
fiscal year.

FISCAL 1994 COMPARED TO FISCAL 1993

Net Sales. The Company's net sales decreased 3.7% to $324.8 million in fiscal
1994 from $337.4 million in fiscal 1993. The Company believes that this decline
in net sales was in part attributable to the customers postponing purchasing
decisions during the fourth quarter while waiting to see which of the Company's
product lines would be supported and which would be discontinued following the
Merger. Sales were flat for the nine months ended June 30, 1994 prior to the
Merger. Net sales of video products and displays increased but this increase was
offset by pricing pressure on graphics cards. Demand was lower than anticipated
for graphics cards due to the introduction of the Power Macintosh by Apple and
the resulting customer uncertainty surrounding the need for graphics
acceleration given the built-in video capabilities of this new product.

Gross Profit. The Company's gross profit margin including the restructuring and
other charges declined to 14.7% in fiscal 1994, compared to 24.6%, in fiscal
1993. The Company's gross profit margin excluding the restructuring charges
declined to 27.3% in fiscal 1994, compared to 31.8% in fiscal 1993. See Note 8
of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements regarding the restructuring and
other charges for SuperMac in December 1993 and Merger related restructuring and
other charges in September 1994. Excluding the restructuring charges, the
decline in gross margins was due to increased pricing pressures and a change in
the product mix favoring lower margin displays over higher margin graphics
accelerator cards.

Research and Development Expenses. Research and development expenses increased
slightly to $34.0 million (10.5% of net sales) in fiscal 1994 from $33.5 million
(9.9% of net sales) in fiscal 1993. The relatively flat absolute dollar
expenditures in research and development activities were due to recording
significant restructuring and other charges related to development project
cancellations, equipment disposal, and severance in fiscal 1994 offset by the
decrease in expenditures in fiscal 1994 as a result of the cancellation of
Radius' efforts to develop a variety of technologies originally intended for a
minicomputer-class server product. Additionally, the research and development
expenses appeared flat due to the SuperMac 1993 restructuring of $2.0 million
for development project cancellations included in both the fiscal 1993 and
fiscal 1994 results of operations.

                                       -5-
<PAGE>   6
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and
administrative expenses increased to $94.7 million (29.2% of net sales) in
fiscal 1994 from $84.1 million (24.9% of net sales) in fiscal 1993. The increase
in absolute dollars was primarily due to increased personnel expense, market
development expenses, restructuring and other charges in fiscal 1994 and the
Company's investment in its information system. The 1993 restructuring and other
charges included the elimination of excess facilities, capital equipment
write-offs, severance payments and the termination of certain contractual
agreements. Restructuring and other charges for fiscal 1994 included the
elimination of duplicative facilities, property and equipment and other assets,
severance payments, as well as transaction fees and costs incidental to the
Merger.

Provision for Income Taxes. The Company's annual combined federal and state
effective income tax rates were approximately 6% in fiscal 1994 and 40% in
fiscal 1993 before the cumulative effect of the change in method of accounting
for income taxes. The fiscal 1994 rate differs from the combined statutory rate
in effect during the period primarily as a result of non-deductible merger
related costs, the one time write-off of purchased research and development
which is not tax deductible and the impact of not benefiting a significant
portion of the 1994 operating loss. The 1993 rate differs from the combined
statutory rate in effect during the period primarily as a result of the
utilization of the research and development tax credit.

Net Loss. As a result of the above factors, net loss increased to $77.5 million
in fiscal 1994 from $20.1 million in fiscal 1993.

RESTRUCTURING, MERGER AND OTHER CHARGES

During fiscal 1993, 1994 and 1995, four restructuring and other charges were
recorded. Radius recorded a $15.5 million restructuring charge during the third
quarter of fiscal 1993 in connection with the implementation of a program
designed to reduce costs and improve operating efficiencies. SuperMac recorded a
$16.6 million restructuring charge during December 1993 in connection with a
program to realign its inventory and facility and personnel resources.
Subsequently, the two companies merged and incurred a restructuring charge of
$43.4 million. In September 1995, Radius recorded $57.9 million restructuring
charge in connection with the Company's efforts to refocus and streamline its
business. A discussion of each of these events follows.

RADIUS JUNE 1993 RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER CHARGES

In June 1993, Radius announced a restructuring program designed to reduce costs
and improve operating efficiencies. The program included, among other things,
the write-down of inventory following Radius' decision to phase out its older
generation of products, lease termination expenses, capital equipment
write-offs, severance payments, and costs associated with the discontinuation of
Radius' minicomputer-class server product. The restructuring program costs of
$15.5 million were recorded during the third quarter of fiscal 1993. These
charges (in thousands) are included in: cost of sales ($10,993); research and
development ($411); and selling, general and administrative expenses ($4,096).
The Company completed this restructuring event by the end of calendar 1994.
There were no material changes in the restructuring plan or in the estimates of
the restructuring costs from the recognition of the charge in June 1993 with the
completion of the restructuring program in December 1994.

SUPERMAC DECEMBER 1993 RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER CHARGES

In December 1993, SuperMac recorded charges of $16.6 million in connection with
a program to adjust inventory levels, eliminate excess facilities, terminate
certain projects and contract arrangements and reduce the number of employees.
The charges (in thousands) are included in: cost of sales ($13,352); research
and development ($2,000); and selling, general and administrative expenses
($1,238). There have been no material changes in the restructuring plan or in
the estimates of the restructuring costs. The Company has $236,000 remaining in
its restructuring reserve related to facility costs, the balance of which is
expected to be eliminated in fiscal 1996. As noted in the Consolidated Financial
Statements, the consolidated results for the Company in both the twelve months
ended September 30, 1994 and the fiscal period ended 1993 include SuperMac's
$16.6 million charge.

RADIUS FISCAL 1994 MERGER RELATED RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER CHARGES 

In the fourth quarter of fiscal 1994, the Company recorded charges of $43.4
million in connection with the Merger of Radius and SuperMac. These charges
include the discontinuance of duplicative product lines and related assets;
elimination of duplicative facilities, property and equipment and other assets;
and personnel severance costs as well

as transaction fees and costs incidental to the merger. The charges (in
thousands) are included in: net sales ($3,095); cost of sales ($25,270);
research and development ($4,331); and selling, general and administrative
expenses ($10,711). The elements of the total charge as of September 30, 1995
are as follows (in thousands):

</TABLE>

The adjustment of inventory levels reflects the discontinuance of duplicative
product lines. The provision for excess facility costs represents the write-off
of leaseholds and sublease costs of Radius' previous headquarters, the
consolidation into one main headquarters and the consolidation of sales offices.
The revision of the operations business model reflects the reorganization of the
combined Company's manufacturing operations to mirror Radius' manufacturing
reorganization in 1993. This reorganization was designed to outsource a number
of functions that previously were performed internally, reduce product costs
through increased efficiencies and lower overhead, and focus the Company on a
limited number of products. Employee severance costs are related to employees or
temporary employees who were released due to the revised business model.
Approximately 250 employees were terminated in connection with the Merger. The
provision for merger related costs is for the costs associated with the Merger
transaction, such as legal, investment banking and accounting fees. The Company
has spent $15.9 million of cash for restructuring through September 30, 1995.
The Company expects to have substantially completed the restructuring by
September 1996. During fiscal 1995, approximately $2.1 million of merger related
restructuring reserves were reversed and recorded as an expense reduction due to
changes in estimated requirements.

RADIUS FISCAL 1995 RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER CHARGES

In September 1995, Radius recorded charges of $57.9 million in connection with
the Company's efforts to refocus its business on the color publishing and
multimedia markets. The charges primarily included a writedown of inventory and
other assets. Additionally, it included expenses related to the cancellation of
open purchase orders, excess facilities and severance. The charges (in
thousands) are included in cost of sales ($47,004), and selling, general and
administrative expense ($10,861). The elements of the total charge as of
September 30, 1995 are as follows (in thousands):

</TABLE>

The adjustment of inventory levels reflects the discontinuance of several
product lines. The provision for excess facility costs represent the write-off
of leasehold improvements and the costs associated with anticipated reductions
in facilities. The cancellation fees and asset write-offs reflect the Company's
decision to refocus its efforts on providing solutions for the color publishing
and multimedia markets. Employee severance costs are related to employees or
temporary employees who have been or will be released due to the revised
business model. As of December 15, 1995, approximately 157 positions had been
eliminated in connection with the new business model. The Company had not spent
any cash for this restructuring as of September 30, 1995. As of September 30,
1995, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $4.8 million. See
"Management's Business Recovery Plans" at Note 1

due to the Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company expects to have
substantially completed the restructuring by September 1996.

BUSINESS DIVESTITURES

COLOR SERVER GROUP

On December 23, 1995, the Company signed a definitive agreement pursuant to
which the Company will sell its Color Server Group ("CSG") to Splash Merger
Company, Inc. (the "Buyer"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Splash Technology
Holdings, Inc. (the "Parent"), a corporation formed by various investment
entities associated with Summit Partners. The Company will receive approximately
$21.9 million in cash (subject to certain post-closing adjustments) and 4,282
shares of the Parent's 6% Series B Redeemable and Convertible Preferred Stock
(the " Series B Preferred Stock"). The shares of Series B Preferred Stock will
be convertible by the Company at any time into 19.9% of the Parent's common
stock outstanding as of the closing of the transaction. The shares of Series B
Preferred Stock also will be redeemable by the Parent at any time, and will be
subject to mandatory redemption beginning on the sixth anniversary of issuance,
in each case at a redemption price of $1,000 per share plus accrued dividends.
The transaction is expected to close in January 1996. Under the Inventory and
Working Capital Agreement, as recently amended, with IBM Credit Corp., the
Company is required to pay all of the net proceeds of the Color Server Group
transaction to IBM Credit Corp. in order to reduce the Company's outstanding
indebtedness under that agreement.

PORTRAIT DISPLAY LABS

On December 19, 1995, the Company signed a series of agreements with Portrait
Display Labs, Inc. ("PDL"). The agreements assigned the Company's pivoting
technology to PDL and canceled PDL's on-going royalty obligation to the Company
under an existing license agreement in exchange for a one-time cash payment. PDL
also granted the Company a limited license back to the pivoting technology.
Under these agreements, PDL also settled its outstanding receivable to the
Company by paying the Company $500,000 in cash and issuing to the Company
214,286 shares of PDL's Common Stock. See Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial
Statements.

DISPLAY TECHNOLOGIES ELECTROHOME INC.

On December 21, 1995, the Company signed a Business Purchase Agreement and an
Asset Purchase and License Agreement with Display Technologies Electrohome Inc.
("DTE"). Pursuant to the agreements and subject to certain closing conditions,
DTE will purchase Radius' monochrome display monitor business and certain assets
related thereto, for approximately $200,000 in cash and cancellation of $2.5
million of the Company's indebtedness to DTE. In addition, DTE and Radius will
cancel outstanding contracts relating to DTE's manufacture and sale of
monochrome display monitors to Radius.

(1) These periods have been restated to reflect the Merger of Radius and
SuperMac which has been accounted for as a pooling of interests. See Note 10 of
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements. The consolidated financial
statements for all periods prior to fiscal 1994 have not been restated to adjust
SuperMac's fiscal year end to that of Radius. Such periods include Radius'
results of operations and balance sheet data on a September 30 fiscal year basis
and SuperMac's on a December 31 calendar year basis. Therefore, results for the
quarter ended September 30, 1993 shown above include a $16.6 million charge
recorded by SuperMac in December 1993. Additionally, the results for the quarter
ended December 31, 1993 reflect this same $16.6 million charge recorded by
SuperMac in December 1993.

The Company's operating results are subject to quarterly fluctuations as a
result of a number of factors, including: the sales rate and mix of Apple
computers; the introduction of new products by Apple, the Company or its
competitors; the timing of sales and marketing expenses by the Company; the
timing of business cycles in the United States and worldwide; the availability
and cost of key components; the Company's ability to develop innovative
products; the Company's product and customer mix; and the level of competition.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's cash and cash equivalents decreased approximately $11.2 million
during fiscal 1995 to approximately $4.8 million at September 30, 1995, as
compared with the fiscal 1994 ending balance of cash and cash equivalents of
$16.0 million. Approximately $1.6 million of the $4.8 million of cash and cash
equivalents available at September 30, 1995 was restricted under various letters
of credit. Capital expenditures were $1.9 million in fiscal 1995 and $3.5
million in fiscal 1994.

The decrease in the Company's cash and cash equivalents during fiscal 1995 was
primarily attributable to expenditures made in connection with the development
and introduction of the Company's MacOS compatible systems.

The Company completed a private placement during the third quarter of the 1995
fiscal year, the proceeds of which allowed the Company to build inventory of
MacOS-compatible systems components and reduce other vendor payables. In the
private placement, the Company sold 2,509,319 shares of its Common Stock
resulting in net proceeds of approximately $21.4 million.

At September 30, 1995, the Company's principal sources of liquidity included
approximately $30.0 million in inventory and working capital financing under an
agreement with IBM Credit Corporation (the "ICC Agreement") together with an
additional $20.0 million provided by IBM Credit Corp. under the ICC Agreement to
finance the manufacturing of the Company's MacOS compatible products, all of
which was fully utilized.

In addition, the Company has a $5.0 million credit arrangement with Silicon
Valley Bank ("SVB") which was partially utilized as of that date. Additionally,
the Company's Japanese subsidiary has a revolving line of credit with a bank in
Japan under which $3.1 million has been utilized as of September 30, 1995. 


As of September 30, 1995, the Company was not in compliance with all of its 
contractual obligations and financial covenants under the ICC Agreement; 
however, IBM Credit Corp. has waived such defaults pursuant to an amendment to 
the ICC Agreement executed in December 1995 (the "ICC Amendment"). The ICC 
Amendment, among other things, also provides that until March 31, 1996 IBM 
Credit Corp. will extend advances to the Company in an amount up to 90% of the 
Company's collections and fund the Company's payroll in the event that 
collections


                                      -9-
<PAGE>   10
are insufficient to permit the advances needed for this purpose. Such advances
and payroll funding, however, may be suspended by IBM Credit Corp. (i)
immediately following a default of the ICC Amendment, and (ii) following thirty
(30) days notice in the event of any default of the ICC Agreement.

As of September 30, 1995, the Company was not in compliance with all of its
contractual obligations and financial covenants under its credit arrangement
with SVB. As of December 15, 1995 approximately $1,200,000 was outstanding under
this credit arrangement, all of which the Company anticipates paying SVB during
the first calendar quarter of 1996.

Recently, the Company's limited cash resources have restricted the Company's
ability to purchase inventory which in turn has limited its ability to
manufacture and sell products and has resulted in additional costs for expedited
deliveries. The Company also is delinquent in its accounts payables as payments
to vendors are not being made in accordance with vendor terms. The adverse
effect on the Company's results of operations due to its limited cash resources
can be expected to continue until such time as the Company is able to return to
profitability, or generate additional cash from other sources. There can be no
assurance that the Company will be able to do so.

Additional funds will be needed to finance the Company's development plans and
for other purposes, and the Company is now investigating possible financing
opportunities. There can be no assurance that additional financing will be
available when needed or, if available, that the terms of such financing will
not adversely affect the Company's results of operations.

CERTAIN FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT THE COMPANY'S FUTURE RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

A number of uncertainties exist that could affect the Company's future operating
results, including, without limitation, the following:

CONTINUING OPERATING LOSSES
The Company experienced net operating losses in the fiscal years ended September
30, 1993, 1994 and 1995. The Company's ability to achieve and sustain profitable
operations will depend upon a number of factors, including the Company's ability
to control costs; to develop innovative and cost-competitive new products and to
bring those products to market in a timely manner; the rate and mix of Apple
computers and related products sold; competitive factors such as new product
introductions, product enhancements and aggressive marketing and pricing
practices; general economic conditions; and other factors. The Company has faced
and expects to continue to face increased competition in graphic cards as a
result of Apple's transition of its product line to the PCI Bus. In addition,
the Company anticipates significantly lower revenue and gross profit from its
digital video products primarily due to lower than anticipated sell through
rates for Radius Telecast. For these and other reasons, there can be no
assurance that the Company will be able to achieve profitability in the near
term.

FLUCTUATIONS IN OPERATING RESULTS The Company has experienced substantial
fluctuations in operating results. The Company's customers generally order on an
as-needed basis, and the Company has historically operated with relatively small
backlogs. Quarterly sales and operating results depend heavily on the volume and
timing of bookings received during the quarter, which are difficult to forecast.
A substantial portion of the Company's revenues are derived from sales made late
in each quarter, which increases the difficulty in forecasting sales accurately.
Recently, shortages of available cash have delayed the Company's receipt of
products from suppliers and increased shipping and other costs. The Company
recognizes sales upon shipment of product, and allowances are recorded for
estimated noncollectable amounts, returns, credits and similar costs, including
product warranties and price protection. Due to the inherent uncertainty of such
estimates, there can be no assurance that the Company's forecasts regarding
bookings, collections, rates of return, credits and related matters will be
accurate. A significant portion of the operating expenses of the Company are
relatively fixed in nature, and planned expenditures are based primarily on
sales forecasts which, as indicated above, are uncertain. Any inability on the
part of the Company to adjust spending quickly enough to compensate for any
failure to meet sales forecasts or to receive anticipated collections, or any
unexpected increase in product returns or other costs, could also have an
adverse impact on the Company's operating results.

DEPENDENCE ON AND COMPETITION WITH APPLE
Historically, substantially all of the Company's products have been designed for
and sold to users of Apple personal computers, and it is expected that sales of
products for such computers will continue to represent substantially all of the
net sales of the Company for the foreseeable future. The Company's operating
results would be adversely affected if Apple should lose market share, if
Macintosh sales were to decline or if other developments were to adversely
affect Apple's business. As software applications for the color publishing and
multimedia markets become more available on platforms other than Macintosh, it
is likely that these other platforms will continue to gain acceptance in these
markets. For example, recently introduced versions of the Windows operating
environment support high performance graphics and video applications similar to
those offered on the Macintosh. There is a risk that this trend will reduce the
support given to Macintosh products by third party developers and could
substantially reduce demand for Macintosh products and peripherals over the long
term.

A number of the Company's products compete with products marketed by Apple. As a
competitor of the Company, Apple could in the future take steps to hinder the
Company's development of compatible products and slow sales of the Company's
products. The Company's business is based in part on supplying products that
meet the needs of high-end customers that are not fully met by Apple's products.
As Apple improves its products or bundles additional hardware or software into
its computers, it reduces the market for Radius products that provide those
capabilities. For example, the Company believes that the on-board performance
capabilities included in Macintosh Power PC products have reduced and continue
to reduce overall sales for the Company's graphics cards. In the past, the
Company has developed new products as Apple's progress has rendered existing
Company products obsolete, but there can be no assurance that the Company will
continue to develop successful new products on a timely basis in the future. In
order to develop products for the Macintosh on a timely basis, the Company
depends upon access to advance information concerning new Macintosh products. A
decision by Apple to cease sharing advance product information with the Company
would adversely affect the Company's business.

New products anticipated from and introduced by Apple could cause customers to
defer or alter buying decisions due to uncertainty in the marketplace, as well
as presenting additional direct competition for the Company. For example, the
Company believes that Apple's transition during 1994 to Power PC products caused
delays and uncertainties in the market place and had the effect of reducing
demand for the Company's products. In addition, sales of the Company's products
have been adversely affected by Apple's revamping of its entire product line
from NuBus-based to PCI Bus-based computers. In the past, transitions in Apple's
products have been accompanied by shortages in those products and in key
components for them, leading to a slowdown in sales of those products and in the
development and sale by the Company of compatible products. In addition, it is
possible that the introduction of new Apple products with improved performance
capabilities may create uncertainties in the market concerning the need for the
performance enhancements provided by the Company's products and could reduce
demand for such products.

COMPETITION
The markets for the Company's products are highly competitive, and the Company
expects competition to intensify. Many of the Company's current and prospective
competitors have significantly greater financial, technical, manufacturing and
marketing resources than the Company. The Company believes that its ability to
compete will depend on a number of factors, including the success and timing of
new product developments by the Company and its competitors, product
performance, price and quality, breadth of distribution and customer support.
There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to compete successfully
with respect to these factors. In addition, the introduction of lower priced
competitive products could result in price reductions that would adversely
affect the Company's results of operations.

DEPENDENCE ON SUPPLIERS The Company outsources the manufacturing and assembly of
its products to third party suppliers. Although the Company uses a number of
manufacturer/assemblers, each of its products is manufactured and assembled by a
single supplier. The failure of a supplier to ship the quantities of a product
ordered by the Company could cause a material disruption in the Company's sales
of that product. In the past, the Company has at times experienced substantial
delays in its ability to fill customer orders for displays and other products,
due to the inability of certain suppliers to meet their volume and schedule
requirements and, recently, due to the Company's shortages in available cash.
Due to recent shortages in cash resources and because the Company seeks to
manage its use of working

                                      -11-
<PAGE>   12
capital by, among other things, limiting the backlog of inventory it purchases,
the Company is particularly vulnerable to delays in shipments from suppliers.
Such delays can cause fluctuations in the Company's short term results and
contribute to order cancellations.

The Company is also dependent on sole or limited source suppliers for certain
key components used in its products, including certain digital to analog
converters, digital video chips, and other products. Certain other semiconductor
components and molded plastic parts are also purchased from sole or limited
source suppliers. The Company purchases these sole or limited source components
primarily pursuant to purchase orders placed from time to time in the ordinary
course of business and has no guaranteed supply arrangements with sole or
limited source suppliers. The Company expects that these suppliers will continue
to meet its requirements for the components, but there can be no assurance that
they will do so. The introduction of new products presents additional
difficulties in obtaining timely shipments from suppliers. Additional time may
be needed to identify and qualify suppliers of the new products. Also, the
Company has experienced delays in achieving volume production of new products
due to the time required for suppliers to build their manufacturing capacity. An
extended interruption in the supply of any of the components for the Company's
products, regardless of the cause, could have an adverse impact on the Company's
results of operations. The Company's products also incorporate components, such
as VRAMs, DRAMs and ASICs that are available from multiple sources but have been
subject to substantial fluctuations in availability and price. Since a
substantial portion of the total material cost of the Company's products is
represented by these components, significant fluctuations in their price and
availability could affect its results of operations.

TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGE; CONTINUING NEED TO DEVELOP NEW PRODUCTS
The personal computer industry in general, and the color publishing and video
applications within the industry, are characterized by rapidly changing
technology, often resulting in short product life cycles and rapid price
declines. The Company believes that its success will be highly dependent on its
ability to develop innovative and cost-competitive new products and to bring
them to the marketplace in a timely manner. Should the Company fail to introduce
new products on a timely basis, the Company's operating results could be
adversely affected. Technological innovation is particularly important for the
Company, since its business is based on its ability to provide functionality and
features not included in Apple's products. As Apple introduces new products with
increased functionality and features, the Company's business will be adversely
affected unless it develops new products that provide advantages over Apple's
latest offerings. Continued reduction in the available cash resources of the
Company could result in the interruption or cancellation of research and product
development efforts.

The Company anticipates that the video editing industry will follow the pattern
of the professional publishing industry in which desktop publishing products,
including those produced by Radius, replaced more expensive, proprietary
products, and the Company also anticipates that this evolution will lead to a
significant increase in the purchase and use of video editing products. There is
a risk that this evolution will not occur in the video editing industry as
expected by the Company, or that it will occur at a slower pace than
anticipated.

The introduction of new products is inherently subject to risks of delay. Should
the Company fail to introduce new products on a timely basis, the operating
results of the Company could be adversely affected. The introduction of new
products and the phasing out of older products will require the Company to
carefully manage its inventory to avoid inventory obsolescence and may require
increases in inventory reserves. The long lead times -- as much as three to five
months -- associated with the procurement of certain components (principally
displays and ASICs) exposes the Company to greater risk in forecasting the
demand for new products. There can be no assurance that the Company's forecasts
regarding new product demand and its estimates of appropriate inventory levels
will be accurate. Moreover, no assurance can be given that the Company will be
able to cause all of its new products to be manufactured at acceptable
manufacturing yields or that the Company will obtain market acceptance for these
products.

DISTRIBUTION The Company's primary means of distribution is through a limited
number of third-party distributors and master resellers. As a result, the
Company's business and financial results are highly dependent on the amount of
the Company's products that is ordered by these distributors and resellers. Such
orders are in turn dependent upon the continued viability and financial
condition of these distributors and resellers as well as on their ability to
resell such products and maintain appropriate inventory levels. Due in part to
the historical volatility of the personal computer industry, certain of the
Company's resellers have from time to time experienced declining profit margins,
cash flow

                                      -12-
<PAGE>   13
shortages and other financial difficulties. The future growth and success of the
Company will continue to depend in large part upon its reseller channels. If its
resellers were to experience financial difficulties, the Company's results of
operations could be adversely affected.

INTERNATIONAL SALES
The Company's international sales are primarily made through distributors and
the Company's subsidiary in Japan. The Company expects that international sales
will represent a significant portion of its net sales and that it will be
subject to the normal risks of international sales such as currency
fluctuations, longer payment cycles, export controls and other governmental
regulations and, in some countries, a lesser degree of intellectual property
protection as compared to that provided under the laws of the United States. In
addition, fluctuations in exchange rates could affect demand for the Company's
products. If for any reason exchange or price controls or other restrictions on
foreign currencies are imposed, the Company's business and operating results
could be materially adversely affected.

DEPENDENCE ON KEY PERSONNEL
The Company's success depends to a significant degree upon the continued
contributions of its key management, marketing, product development and
operational personnel and the Company's ability to retain and continue to
attract highly skilled personnel. Competition for employees in the computer
industry is intense, and there can be no assurance that the Company will be able
to attract and retain qualified employees. The Company has recently made a
number of management changes, including the appointment of a new Chief Financial
Officer. If the Company continues to experience financial difficulties, it may
become increasingly difficult for it to hire new employees and retain current
employees. The Company does not carry any key person life insurance with respect
to any of its personnel.

DEPENDENCE ON PROPRIETARY RIGHTS
The Company relies on a combination of patent, copyright, trademark and trade
secret protection, nondisclosure agreements and licensing arrangements to
establish and protect its proprietary rights. The Company has a number of
patents and patent applications and intends to file additional patent
applications as it considers appropriate. There can be no assurance that patents
will issue from any of these pending applications or, if patents do issue, that
any claims allowed will be sufficiently broad to protect the Company's
technology. In addition, there can be no assurance that any patents that may be
issued to the Company will not be challenged, invalidated or circumvented, or
that any rights granted thereunder would provide proprietary protection to the
Company. The Company has a number of trademarks and trademark applications.
There can be no assurance that litigation with respect to trademarks will not
result from the Company's use of registered or common law marks, or that, if
litigation against the Company were successful, any resulting loss of the right
to use a trademark would not reduce sales of the Company's products in addition
to the possibility of a significant damages award. Although, the Company intends
to defend its proprietary rights, policing unauthorized use of proprietary
technology or products is difficult, and there can be no assurance that the
Company's efforts will be successful. The laws of certain foreign countries may
not protect the proprietary rights of the Company to the same extent as do the
laws of the United States.

The Company has received, and may receive in the future, communications
asserting that its products infringe the proprietary rights of third parties,
and the Company is engaged and has been engaged in litigation alleging that the
Company's products infringe others' patent rights. As a result of such claims or
litigation, it may become necessary or desirable in the future for the Company
to obtain licenses relating to one or more of its products or relating to
current or future technologies, and there can be no assurance that it would be
able to do so on commercially reasonable terms.

VOLATILITY OF STOCK PRICE; DILUTION The price of the Company's Common Stock has
fluctuated widely in the past. Management believes that such fluctuations may
have been caused by announcements of new products, quarterly fluctuations in the
results of operations and other factors, including changes in conditions of the
personal computer industry in general. Stock markets have experienced extreme
price volatility in recent years. This volatility has had a substantial effect
on the market prices of securities issued by the Company and other high
technology companies, often for reasons unrelated to the operating performance
of the specific companies. Due to the factors referred to herein, the dynamic
nature of the Company's industry, general economic conditions and other factors,
the Company's future operating results and stock prices may be subject to
significant volatility in the future. In addition, any change in other operating
results

                                      -13-
<PAGE>   14
could have an immediate and significant effect on the prices of the
Company's Common Stock. Such stock price volatility for the Common Stock has in
the past provoked securities litigation, and future volatility could provoke
litigation in the future that could divert substantial management resources and
have an adverse effect on the Company's results of operations.

                REPORT OF ERNST & YOUNG LLP, INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

The Board of Directors and Shareholders
Radius Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Radius Inc. as
of September 30, 1995 and 1994, and the related consolidated statements of
operations, shareholders' equity (net capital deficiency) and cash flows for
each of the three years in the period ended September 30, 1995. Our audits also
included the financial statement schedule listed in the Index at page F-21.
These financial statements and schedule are the responsibility of the Company's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements and schedule based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respect, the consolidated financial position of Radius
Inc. at September 30, 1995 and 1994, and the consolidated results of its
operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended
September 30, 1995, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
Also, in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered
in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly
in all material respects the information set forth therein.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming
that Radius Inc. will continue as a going concern. As more fully described in
Note 1, the Company has incurred recurring operating losses, and has a
deficiency in assets and working capital. In addition the Company has not
complied with certain covenants of loan agreements with its lenders. These
conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a
going concern. (Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described
in Note 1.) The financial statements do not include any adjustment to reflect
the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets
or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the
outcome of this uncertainty.

As discussed in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, in 1993 the
Company changed its method of accounting for income taxes.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE ONE.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     Organization and Basis of Presentation

     The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Radius Inc.
     ("Radius") and its wholly owned subsidiaries after elimination of
     significant intercompany transactions and balances.

     Radius and SuperMac Technologies, Inc. ("SuperMac") merged into the
     combined company (the "Company") effective August 31, 1994 (the "Merger"),
     which was accounted for as a pooling of interests. The consolidated
     financial statements for fiscal 1993 have not been restated to adjust
     SuperMac's fiscal year end to that of Radius. This period includes Radius'
     results of operations and balance sheet data on a September 30 fiscal year
     basis and SuperMac's on a December 31 calendar year basis.

     Financial Statements Estimates

     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
     accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
     assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities,
     revenues and expenses. Such estimates include the level of allowance for
     potentially uncollectible receivables and sales returns; inventory reserves
     for obsolete, slow-moving, or non-salable inventory; and estimated cost for
     installation, warranty and other customer support obligations. Actual
     results could differ from these estimates.

     Management's Business Recovery Plans

     As shown in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company
     has incurred recurring operating losses, and has a deficiency in assets and
     working capital. In addition, as of September 30, 1995, the Company was not
     in compliance with all of its contractual obligations and financial
     covenants under its credit agreements. The Company also is delinquent in
     its accounts payables as payments to vendors are not being made in
     accordance with vendor terms.

     The Company's relatively limited cash resources have restricted the
     Company's ability to purchase inventory which in turn has limited its
     ability to manufacture and sell products and has resulted in additional
     costs for expedited deliveries. The adverse effect on the Company's results
     of operations due to its limited cash resources can be expected to continue
     until such time as the Company is able to return to profitability, or
     generate additional cash from other sources.

     These conditions raise concerns about the Company's ability to continue
     operations as an ongoing concern. Management has implemented, or has
     developed plans to implement, a number of actions to address these
     conditions including: refocusing its efforts on providing solutions for
     high end digital video and graphics customers; discontinuing sales of mass
     market and other low value added products; divesting its color server and
     monochrome display businesses and exploring opportunities for the
     divestiture of its MacOS compatible systems products and other product
     lines; significantly reducing expenses and headcount; subleasing all or a
     portion of its current facility given its reduced occupancy requirements;
     and investigating various strategic partnering opportunities.

     Additional funds will be needed to finance the Company's development plans
     and for other purposes, and the Company is now investigating possible
     financing opportunities. There can be no assurance that additional
     financing will be available when needed or, if available, that the terms of
     such financing will not adversely affect the Company's results of
     operations.

     Fiscal year

     The Company's fiscal year ends on the Saturday closest to September 30 and
     includes 53 weeks in fiscal 1993 and 52 weeks in all other fiscal years
     presented. During fiscal 1995, the Company changed its fiscal year end 


                                      F-6
<PAGE>   27
     from the Sunday closest to September 30 to the Saturday closest to
     September 30 for operational efficiency purposes. For clarity of
     presentation, all fiscal periods in this Form 10-K are reported as ending
     on a calendar month end.

     Foreign currency translation

     The Company translates the assets and liabilities of its foreign
     subsidiaries into dollars at the rates of exchange in effect at the end of
     the period and translates revenues and expenses using rates in effect
     during the period. Gains and losses from these translations are accumulated
     as a separate component of shareholders' equity. Foreign currency
     transaction gains or losses, which are included in the results of
     operations, are not material.

     Inventories

     Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. The Company reviews
     the levels of its inventory in light of current and forecasted demand to
     identify and provide reserve for obsolete, slow-moving, or non-salable
     inventory. Cost is determined using standard costs that approximate cost on
     a first-in, first-out basis. Inventories consist of the following (in
     thousands):

</TABLE>


     Depreciation has been provided for using the straight-line method over
     estimated useful lives of three to five years. Equipment under capital
     leases and leasehold improvements are being amortized on the straight-line
     method over six years or the remaining lease term, whichever is shorter.

     Long-lived Assets

     In 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board released the Statement of
     Financial Accounting Standards No. 121 (SFAS 121), "Accounting for the
     Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed
     of." SFAS 121 requires recognition of impairment of long-lived assets in
     the event the net book value of such assets exceeds the future undiscounted
     cash flows attributable to such assets. SFAS 121 is effective for fiscal
     years beginning after December 15, 1995. Adoption of SFAS 121 is not
     expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial position or
     results of operations.

     Revenue recognition



                                      F-7
<PAGE>   28
     Revenue is recognized when products are shipped. Sales to certain resellers
     are subject to agreements allowing certain rights of return and price
     protection on unsold merchandise held by these resellers. The Company
     provides for estimated returns at the time of shipment and for price
     protection following price declines.

     Warranty expense

     The Company provides at the time of sale for the estimated cost to repair
     or replace products under warranty. The warranty period commences on the
     end user date of purchase and is normally one year for displays and digital
     video products and for the life of the product for graphics cards.

     Income taxes

     Effective October 1, 1992, the Company adopted FASB Statement 109,
     "Accounting for Income Taxes." Under Statement 109, the liability method is
     used in accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets
     and liabilities are determined based on differences between financial
     reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using
     the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences
     are expected to reverse. Prior to the adoption of Statement 109, income tax
     expense was determined using the liability method prescribed by Statement
     96, which is superseded by Statement 109. Among other changes, Statement
     109 changes the recognition and measurement criteria for deferred tax
     assets included in Statement 96.

     As permitted by Statement 109, the Company has elected not to restate the
     financial statements of any prior years. The cumulative effect of the
     change in method of accounting for income taxes decreased the net loss by
     $600,000 or $0.05 per share in fiscal 1993 on a combined basis.

     Loss per share

     Net loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of common
     shares outstanding.

     Cash and cash equivalents

     The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity from
     date of purchase of three months or less to be cash equivalents;
     investments with maturities between three and twelve months are considered
     to be short-term investments. Cash equivalents are carried at cost which
     approximates market. There were no short-term investments as of September
     30, 1995 or 1994. Approximately $1.6 million of the $4.8 million of cash
     and cash equivalents available at September 30, 1995 was restricted under
     various letters of credit.

     Off balance-sheet risk and concentration of credit risk

     The Company sells its products to direct computer resellers in the United
     States and to distributors in various foreign countries. The Company
     performs on-going credit evaluations of its customers and generally does
     not require collateral. The Company maintains reserves for potential credit
     losses.

     The Company also hedges substantially all of its trade accounts receivable
     denominated in foreign currency through the use of foreign currency forward
     exchange contracts based on firm third party commitments. Gains and losses
     associated with currency rate changes on forward contracts are recognized
     in the consolidated statements of operations upon contract settlement and
     were not material. At September 30, 1995, the Company had forward contracts
     to sell three different foreign currencies which totaled the equivalent of
     approximately $11.1 million and mature between October 1995 and November
     1995. At September 30, 1995, the fair value of the Company's forward
     contracts approximated cost.

     Related Parties

     In fiscal 1994, the Company acquired shares of preferred stock of Portrait
     Display Labs ("PDL") and a warrant to purchase additional shares of PDL
     preferred stock in exchange for the cancellation of certain rights held by
     the Company to purchase all of the outstanding equity securities or assets
     of the predecessor entity to PDL. The warrant permitted the purchase of
     approximately an additional 10% interest in PDL. The Company also was


                                      F-8
<PAGE>   29
     granted one seat on PDL's Board of Directors. In addition, the Company
     licensed PDL certain pivot display technology in exchange for the payment
     of royalties. Product revenues were approximately $5.0 million in fiscal
     1994. In fiscal 1995, the Company exercised the warrant for an additional
     10% interest in PDL in exchange for cancellation of approximately $945,000
     in accounts receivable. There were no product revenues for the fiscal 1995
     to this related party. The receivable from PDL at September 30, 1995 was
     approximately $980,000. Subsequent to September 30, 1995, the Company
     signed a series of additional agreements with Portrait Display Labs, see
     Note 11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

     There were no material transactions from this or any other related party
     during fiscal 1993.

NOTE TWO.  BORROWINGS

     Line of credit arrangement

     In February 1995, the Company and IBM Credit Corp. ("ICC") entered into a
     $30.0 million Inventory and Working Capital Financing Agreement (the "ICC
     Agreement"). The ICC Agreement permits advances for inventory and working
     capital up to the lesser of $30.0 million or 85% of eligible receivables
     ("Inventory and Working Capital Advances"). In September 1995, ICC advanced
     an additional $20.0 million under the ICC Agreement to finance the
     manufacturing of the Company's MacOS compatible products (the "MacOS
     Advances"). The weighted average interest rate during 1995 was
     approximately 12.6%. Advances bear interest at rates ranging from prime
     rate plus 2.25% to prime rate plus 4% and are secured by all the assets of
     the Company. The ICC Agreement expires in March 1996.

     As of September 30, 1995, $50.8 million was outstanding under the ICC
     Agreement consisting of $30.8 million in Inventory and Working Capital
     Advances and approximately $20.0 million in MacOS Advances. The outstanding
     Inventory and Working Capital Advances included $18.7 million in working
     capital advances supported by eligible receivables, $6.1 million in working
     capital advances in excess of the borrowing base, and $6.1 million in
     inventory advances. The $24.7 million in working capital advances are
     included in Short-term borrowings in the Consolidated Financial Statements.
     The $6.1 million in inventory advances, together with the approximately
     $20.0 million in MacOS Advances, are included in Accounts payable in the
     Consolidated Financial Statements.

     As of September 30, 1995, the Company was not in compliance with all of its
     contractual obligations and financial covenants under the ICC Agreement
     (specifically, revenues to working capital ratio, net profit to revenue,
     and total liabilities to total net worth); however, IBM Credit has waived
     such defaults pursuant to an amendment to the ICC Agreement. See Note 11 to
     the Consolidated Financial Statements.

     In addition, the Company entered into a Business Loan Agreement on March
     20, 1995 with Silicon Valley Bank. The agreement, which expires on March
     19, 1996, allows the Company to issue letters of credit as a sub-facility
     under a $5.0 million foreign accounts receivable revolving line of credit
     subject to an interest rate of up to the prime rate plus 1.25%. The
     weighted average interest rate during 1995 was approximately 13.0%. The
     related debt outstanding as of September 30, 1995 was $1.7 million and
     outstanding letters of credit were $0.8 million. The Company was not in
     compliance with all the terms of this credit arrangement.

     One of the Company's subsidiaries has a revolving line of credit with a
     bank in Japan. Borrowings were approximately $3.1 million at September 30,
     1995. This note bears interest at the lesser of the Euro-yen rate or the
     bank's prime lending rate (1.5 percent at September 30, 1995, the prime
     rate). The weighted average interest rate during 1995 was approximately
     4.9% The line of credit is renewed every six months with the next renewal
     in December 1995.

NOTE THREE.  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

     Leases

     The Company leases facilities under operating leases and certain computer
     equipment and office furniture under capital leases. Depreciation expense
     for assets under capital leases is included in depreciation and
     amortization

     Rent expense charged to operations amounted to approximately $3.5 million,
     $3.0 million and $3.8 million for the years ended September 30, 1995, 1994

     1993 exclude a provision for remaining lease obligations on excess
     facilities. See Note 8 of Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

     Sublease income for fiscal 1995 and 1994 was approximately $0.6 million and
     $0.1 million. There was no sublease income for fiscal 1993.

     Contingencies

     DISPLAY SCREEN SIZE
     The Company was named as one of approximately 42 defendants in Shapiro et
     al. v. ADI Systems, Inc. et al., Superior Court of California, Santa Clara
     County, case no. CV751685, filed August 14, 1995. Radius was named as one
     of approximately 32 defendants in Maizes & Maizes et al. v. Apple Computer
     et al., Superior Court of New Jersey, Essex County, case no. L-13780-95,
     filed December 15, 1995. Plaintiffs in each case purport to represent
     alleged classes of similarly situated persons and/or the general public,
     and allege that the defendants falsely advertise that the viewing areas of
     their computer monitors are larger than in fact they are.

     The Company was served with the Shapiro complaint on August 22, 1995, and
     has not yet been served with the Maizes complaint. Defendants' petition to
     the California State Judicial Council to coordinate the Shapiro case with
     similar cases brought in other California jurisdictions was granted in part
     and it is anticipated that the coordinated proceedings will be held in
     Superior Court of California, San Francisco County. Discovery proceedings
     have not yet begun in either case. In the opinion of management, based on
     the facts known at this time, the eventual outcome of these cases is
     unlikely to have a material adverse effect on the results of operations or
     financial position of the Company.

     ELECTRONICS FOR IMAGING
     On November 16, 1995, Electronics for Imaging, Inc. ("EFI") filed a suit in
     the United States District Court in the Northern District of California
     alleging that the Company infringes a patent allegedly owned by EFI.


                                      F-10
<PAGE>   31
     Although the complaint does not specify which Radius products allegedly
     infringe the patent, EFI is a prime competitor of Radius in the Color
     Server market. Radius' Color Server products are material to its business.

     The Company has filed an answer denying all material allegations, and has
     filed counterclaims against EFI alleging causes of action for interference
     with prospective economic benefit, antitrust violations, and unfair
     business practices. The Company believes it has meritorious defenses to
     EFI's claims and is defending them vigorously. In addition, the Company
     believes it may have indemnification rights with respect to EFI's claims.
     In the opinion of management, based on the facts known at this time, the
     eventual outcome of this case is unlikely to have a material adverse effect
     on the results of operations or financial position of the Company.

     SECURITIES LITIGATION.

     In September 1992, the Company and certain of its officers and directors
     were named as defendants in a securities class action litigation brought in
     the United States District Court for the Northern District of California
     that sought unspecified damages, prejudgment and postjudgment interest,
     attorneys' fees, expert witness fees and costs, and equitable relief. In
     July 1994, SuperMac and certain of its officers and directors, several
     venture capital firms and several of the underwriters of SuperMac's May
     1992 initial public offering and its February 1993 secondary offering were
     named as defendants in a class action litigation brought in the same court
     that sought unspecified damages, prejudgment and postjudgment interest,
     attorneys' fees, experts' fees and costs, and equitable relief (including
     the imposition of a constructive trust on the proceeds of defendants'
     trading activities).

     In June 1995, the Court approved the settlement of both litigations and
     entered a Final Judgment and Order of Dismissal. Under the settlement of
     the litigation brought in 1992 against the Company, our insurance carrier
     paid $3.7 million in cash and the Company will issue 128,695 shares of its
     Common Stock to a class action settlement fund. In the settlement of the
     litigation brought in 1994 against SuperMac, the Company paid $250,000 in
     cash and will issue into a class action settlement fund 707,609 shares of
     its Common Stock. The number of shares to be issued by the Company will
     increase by up to 100,000 if the price of the Common Stock is below $12 per
     share during the 60-day period following the initial issuance of shares. In
     connection with these settlements, the Company recorded a charge of $12.4
     million in the Consolidated Financial Statements reflecting settlement
     costs not covered by insurance as well as related legal fees.

     The Company has periodically received communications from third parties
     asserting infringement of patent rights on certain of the Company's
     products and features. Management does not believe any claims made will
     have a material adverse effect on the results of operations or financial
     position of the Company.

     NOTE FOUR.  SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY

     Common Stock

     In June 1995, the Company sold approximately 2.5 million shares of its
     Common Stock in a series of private placements to a small number of
     investors unaffiliated with the Company. Proceeds from the offering, net of
     commission and other related expenses were $21.4 million. The net proceeds
     were used for working capital.

     Stock options

     The Company's 1986 Stock Option Plan, as amended, authorizes the issuance
     of up to 2,975,000 shares of common stock upon the exercise of incentive
     stock options or nonqualified stock options that may be granted to
     officers, employees (including directors who are also employees),
     consultants and independent contractors. Under the plan, options are
     exercisable for a term of up to ten years after issuance. Options may be
     granted at prices ranging from 50% to 100% of the fair market value of the
     stock on the date of grant, as determined by the Board of Directors.
     Vesting of shares is also determined by the Board of Directors at the date
     of grant. The 1986 Stock Option Plan will expire in October 1996.

     On August 31, 1994, pursuant to the Merger, Radius assumed 975,239
     outstanding options originally issued under the SuperMac 1988 Stock Option
     Plan. These options will be administered in accordance with the 


                                      F-11
<PAGE>   32
     SuperMac 1988 Stock Option Plan until all options are exercised or expired.
     Under the plan, options are exercisable for a term of up to ten years after
     issuance.

     The following table summarizes the consolidated activity of the 1986 and
     1988 Stock Option Plans and the 1992 Non-Employee Directors' Stock Option
     Plan:

</TABLE>

     The stock option activity as shown in the table for fiscal 1993 has not
     been restated to adjust SuperMac's fiscal year end to that of Radius.
     Fiscal 1993 includes Radius' activity on a September 30 fiscal year basis
     and SuperMac's activity on a December 31 calendar year basis. The fiscal
     1994 period includes the Radius activity for fiscal year ended September
     30, 1994 and SuperMac activity for the nine months ended September 30,
     1994.

     The Company has also reserved 100,000 shares of common stock for issuance
     to non-employee directors pursuant to options granted under the 1994
     Directors' Stock Option Plan (the "1994 Plan"). Such options may only be
     nonqualified stock options, must be exercised within ten years from the
     date of grant, and must be granted in accordance with a non-discretionary
     formula. Under this formula, each new director receives an option to
     purchase 10,000 shares when that director is first appointed to the Board
     and an option to purchase 2,500 shares on each anniversary of such
     director's appointment. As of September 30, 1995, 27,500 shares had been
     granted under this plan at exercise prices ranging from $7.44 to $12.00 per
     share. Options to purchase 1,250 shares were canceled following the
     resignation of a director. None of the options granted under the 1994 Plan
     are exercisable.

     Prior to the approval of the 1994 Plan, the 1990 Directors' Stock Option
     Plan (the "Prior Plan") was in effect. As of September 30, 1995, the Prior
     Plan had 33,750 options outstanding at prices ranging from $8.00 to $17.25.
     Such options are nonqualified stock options, must be exercised within five
     years from the date of grant, and were granted in accordance with a
     non-discretionary formula. Options unissued under the Prior Plan become
     available for grant under the 1994 Plan. As of September 30, 1995, options
     to purchase 37,500 shares became available upon the resignation of three
     directors. In addition, 28,750 options to purchase shares, which were never
     granted under the Prior Plan were transferred to the 1994 Plan.

     In March 1993, the Company granted a nonqualified stock option to one
     officer to purchase a total of 250,000 shares of common stock outside the
     Company's 1986 Stock Option Plan at an exercise price of $7.75 per share.
     This option is exercisable for a term of ten years and vests over a fifty
     month period commencing on the date of grant. During fiscal 1994, 150 of
     these shares were exercised by the officer, and as of September 30, 1995 an
     additional 149,850 shares were exercisable.

     In June 1995, the Company repriced approximately 232,000 of then
     outstanding options to an exercise price of $12.00 per share, the fair
     market value of the Company's stock on the date of the repricing.

     Employee stock purchase plan



                                      F-12
<PAGE>   33
     The Company has an employee stock purchase plan under which substantially
     all employees may purchase common stock through payroll deductions at a
     price equal to 85% of its fair market value as of certain specified dates.
     Stock purchases under this plan are limited to 10% of an employee's
     compensation, and in no event may exceed $21,250 per year. Under this plan
     a total of 650,000 shares of common stock have been reserved for issuance
     to employees. At September 30, 1995, 255,859 shares remain available for
     issuance under the plan.

     Employee Stock Plans

     The Company account for its stock option plans and the Employee Stock
     Purchase Plan in accordance with provisions of the accounting Principles
     Board's Opinion No. 25 (APB 25), "Accounting for Stock Issued to
     Employees." In 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board released the
     Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 123 (SFAS 123), "Accounting
     for Stock Based Compensation." SFAS 123 provides an alternative to APB 25
     and is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1995. The
     Company expects to continue to account for its employee stock plans in
     accordance with the provision of APB 25. Accordingly, SFAS 123 is not
     expected to have any material impact on the Company's financial position or
     results of operations.

     FASB Statement 109 provides for the recognition of deferred tax assets if
     realization of such assets is more likely than not. The Company's valuation
     allowance reduced the deferred tax asset to the amount realizable. The
     Company has provided a full valuation allowance against its net deferred
     tax assets due to uncertainties

     surrounding their realization. Due to the net losses reported in the prior
     three years and as a result of the material changes in operations reported
     in its 1995 fiscal fourth quarter, predictability of earnings in future
     periods is uncertain. The Company will evaluate the realizability of the
     deferred tax asset on a quarterly basis.

     The provision for income taxes differs from the amount computed by applying
     the statutory federal income tax rate to income before taxes. The sources
     and tax effects of the differences are as follows:

     As of September 30, 1995, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards
     for federal and state income tax purposes of approximately $71,000,000 and
     $27,900,000, respectively. The state loss carryforwards will expire as
     follows; $8,000,000 in 1998, $5,000,000 in 1999; and $14,900,000 in 2000,
     if not utilized, and the federal loss carryforwards will expire primarily
     in 2009 and 2010, if not utilized. In addition, the Company had tax credit
     carryforwards of approximately $6,280,000 which will expire in 2005, if not
     utilized.

     Utilization of net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards may be
     subject to substantial annual limitation due to the ownership change
     limitations provided by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 and similar state
     provisions. The annual limitation may result in the expiration of net
     operating losses before utilization.

     1993, respectively.

NOTE EIGHT.  RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER CHARGES

     RADIUS JUNE 1993 RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER CHARGES
     In June 1993, Radius announced a restructuring program designed to reduce
     costs and improve operating efficiencies. The program included, among other
     things, the write-down of inventory following Radius' decision to phase out
     its older generation of products, lease termination expenses, capital
     equipment write-offs, severance payments, and costs associated with the
     discontinuation of Radius' minicomputer-class server product. The
     restructuring program costs of $15.5 million were recorded during the third
     quarter of fiscal 1993. These charges (in thousands) are included in: cost
     of sales ($10,993); research and development ($411); and selling, general
     and administrative expenses ($4,096). The Company completed this
     restructuring event by the end of calendar 1994. There were no material
     changes in the restructuring plan or in the estimates of the restructuring
     costs from the recognition of the charge in June 1993 with the completion
     of the restructuring program in December 1994.

     SUPERMAC DECEMBER 1993 RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER CHARGES
     In December 1993, SuperMac recorded charges of $16.6 million in connection
     with a program to adjust inventory levels, eliminate excess facilities,
     terminate certain projects and contract arrangements and reduce the number
     of employees. The charges (in thousands) are included in: cost of sales
     ($13,352); research and development ($2,000); and selling, general and
     administrative expenses ($1,238). There have been no material changes in
     the restructuring plan or in the estimates of the restructuring costs. The
     Company has $236,000 remaining in its restructuring reserve related to
     facility costs, the balance of which is expected to be eliminated in fiscal
     1996. As noted in the Consolidated Financial Statements, the consolidated
     results for the Company in both the twelve months ended September 30, 1994
     and the fiscal period ended 1993 include SuperMac's $16.6 million charge.

     RADIUS FISCAL 1994 MERGER RELATED RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER CHARGES
     In the fourth quarter of fiscal 1994, the Company recorded charges of $43.4
     million in connection with the Merger of Radius and SuperMac. These charges
     include the discontinuance of duplicative product lines and related assets;
     elimination of duplicative facilities, property and equipment and other
     assets; and personnel severance costs as well as transaction fees and costs
     incidental to the merger. The charges (in thousands) are included in: net
     sales ($3,095); cost of sales ($25,270); research and development ($4,331);
     and selling, general and administrative expenses ($10,711). The elements of
     the total charge as of September 30, 1995 are as follows (in thousands):

</TABLE>




     The adjustment of inventory levels reflects the discontinuance of
     duplicative product lines. The provision for excess facility costs
     represents the write-off of leaseholds and sublease costs of Radius'
     previous headquarters, the consolidation into one main headquarter and the
     consolidation of sales offices. The revision of the operations business
     model reflects the reorganization of the combined Company's manufacturing
     operations to mirror Radius' manufacturing reorganization in 1993. This
     reorganization was designed to outsource a number of functions that
     previously were performed internally, reduce product costs through
     increased efficiencies and lower overhead, and focus the Company on a
     limited number of products. Employee severance costs are related to
     employees or temporary employees who were released due to the revised
     business model. Approximately 250 employees were terminated in connection
     with the Merger. The provision for merger related costs is for the costs
     associated with the Merger transaction, such as legal, investment banking
     and accounting fees. The Company has spent $15.9 million of cash for
     restructuring through September 30, 1995. The Company expects to have
     substantially completed the restructuring by September 1996. During fiscal
     1995, approximately $2.1 million of merger related restructuring reserves
     were reversed and recorded as an expense reduction due to changes in
     estimated requirements.

     RADIUS FISCAL 1995 RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER CHARGES
     In September 1995, Radius recorded charges of $57.9 million in connection
     with the Company's efforts to refocus its business on the color publishing
     and multimedia markets. The charges primarily included a writedown of
     inventory and other assets. Additionally, it included expenses related to
     the cancellation of open purchase orders, excess facilities and severance.
     The charges (in thousands) are included in cost of sales ($47,004), and
     selling, general and administrative expense ($10,861). The elements of the
     total charge as of September 30, 1995 are as follows (in thousands):

</TABLE>


     The adjustment of inventory levels reflects the discontinuance of several
     product lines. Revenues and product margins for significant product lines
     discontinued were as follows: MacOS-compatible systems were $21.8 million
     and $(19.2 million), respectively; and low-margin displays $82.9 million
     and $19.6 million, respectively. The provision for excess facility costs
     represent the write-off of leasehold improvements and the costs associated
     with anticipated reductions in facilities. The cancellation fees and asset
     write-offs reflect the Company's decision to refocus its efforts on
     providing solutions for the color publishing and multimedia markets.
     Employee severance costs are related to employees or temporary employees
     who have been or will be released due to the revised business model. As of
     December 15, 1995, approximately 157 positions of the 240 total planned had
     been eliminated in connection with the new business model. The Company had
     not spent any cash for this restructuring as of September 30, 1995. As of
     September 30, 1995, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $4.8
     million. See "Management's Business Recovery Plans" at Note 1 due to the
     Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company expects to have
     substantially completed the restructuring by September 1996.

NOTE NINE.  VIDEOFUSION ACQUISITION

     The Company acquired VideoFusion, Inc. ("VideoFusion") on September 9,
     1994. VideoFusion is a developer of advanced digital video special effects
     software for Apple Macintosh and compatible computers. The Company acquired
     VideoFusion in exchange for approximately 890,000 shares of the Company's
     Common Stock, 205,900 shares of which were issued at the closing of the
     acquisition. The balance of the shares were to be issued in installments
     over a period of time contingent on the achievement of certain performance
     milestones and other factors. In addition, the Company was required to pay
     up to $1.0 million in cash based upon net revenues derived from future
     sales of products incorporating VideoFusion's technology. The purchase
     price for VideoFusion, including closing costs and the issuance of shares
     of Common Stock valued at $500,000 in connection with the achievement of
     the first milestone was approximately $2.4 million. This amount was
     allocated to the assets and liabilities of VideoFusion and resulted in
     identifiable intangibles of approximately $440,000 and an in-process
     research and development expense of approximately $2.2 million. The
     intangible asset was to be amortized over two years. The Company recognized
     the charge of approximately $2.7 million for in-process research and
     development and other costs associated with the acquisition of VideoFusion
     during the fourth quarter of fiscal 1994.

     In May 1995, the Company entered into an agreement with the former holders
     of VideoFusion stock to settle the contingent stock and earnout payments
     that were originally contemplated. Pursuant to this agreement, the Company
     issued approximately 212,000 shares, and paid approximately $200,000, to
     the former holders of VideoFusion stock. These transactions resulted in
     additional compensation expense of approximately $3.0 million which was
     recorded in fiscal 1995.

NOTE TEN.  MERGER WITH SUPERMAC TECHNOLOGIES, INC.

     On August 31, 1994, Radius merged with SuperMac in exchange for 6,632,561
     shares of Radius' common stock. SuperMac was a designer, manufacturer, and
     marketer of products that enhanced the power and graphics performance of
     personal computers. The Merger was accounted for as a pooling of interests,
     and, accordingly, the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes
     to Consolidated Financial Statements have been restated to include the
     results of SuperMac for all periods presented.

     Separate results of operations for the periods prior to the Merger are as
     follows (in thousands):

     The merger related expenses reflect the recording of the merger related
     restructuring and other charges.

     Prior to the Merger, SuperMac's fiscal year end was December 31. SuperMac's
     separate results for fiscal 1994 have been restated to conform with the
     twelve months ended September 30. The Consolidated Financial Statements for
     all periods prior to fiscal 1994 have not been restated to adjust
     SuperMac's fiscal year end to that of Radius. Such periods include Radius'
     results of operations and balance sheet data on a September 30 fiscal year
     basis and SuperMac's on a December 31 calendar year basis. Therefore, the
     results for both the fiscal year ended September 30, 1994 and the results
     for the fiscal year ended 1993 include the results for SuperMac's three
     months ended December 31, 1993. Revenues, cost and expenses, and net loss
     of SuperMac for the three months ended December 31, 1993 were, $48.5
     million, $64.7 million and $9.9 million, respectively.

     The Company incurred substantial costs in connection with the Merger and
     consolidation of operations. Included in the accompanying consolidated
     statement of operations for the year ended September 30, 1994 are merger
     related expenses totaling $43.4 million consisting primarily of charges for
     the discontinuance of duplicative product lines and related assets,
     elimination of duplicative facilities, property and equipment and other
     assets, and personnel severance costs as well as transaction fees and costs
     incident to the Merger. See Note 8 of Notes to the Consolidated Financial
     Statements.

NOTE ELEVEN.  SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

     PORTRAIT DISPLAY LABS
     On December 19, 1995, the Company signed a series of agreements with
     Portrait Display Labs, Inc. ("PDL"). The agreements assigned the Company's
     pivoting technology to PDL and canceled PDL's on-going royalty obligation
     to the Company under an existing license agreement in exchange for a
     one-time cash payment. PDL also granted the Company a limited license back
     to the pivoting technology. Under these agreements, PDL settled its
     outstanding receivable to the Company by paying the Company $500,000 in
     cash and issuing to the Company 214,286 shares of PDL's Common Stock. See
     Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

     DISPLAY TECHNOLOGIES ELECTROHOME INC.
     On December 21, 1995, the Company signed a Business Purchase Agreement and
     an Asset Purchase and License Agreement with Display Technologies
     Electrohome Inc. ("DTE"). Pursuant to the agreements and subject to certain
     closing conditions, DTE will purchase Radius' monochrome display monitor
     business and certain assets related thereto, for approximately $200,000 in
     cash and cancellation of $2.5 million of the Company's indebtedness to DTE.
     In addition, DTE and Radius will cancel outstanding contracts relating to
     DTE's manufacture and sale of monochrome display monitors to Radius.

     COLOR SERVER GROUP
     On December 23, 1995, the Company signed a definitive agreement pursuant to
     which the Company will sell its Color Server business to Splash Merger
     Company, Inc. (the "Buyer"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Splash Technology
     Holdings, Inc. (the "Parent"), a corporation formed by various investment
     entities associated with Summit Partners. The Company will receive
     approximately $21.9 million in cash (subject to certain post-closing
     adjustments) and 4,282 shares of the Parent's 6% Series B Redeemable and
     Convertible Preferred Stock (the " Series B Preferred Stock"). The shares
     of Series B Preferred Stock will be convertible by the Company at any time
     into 19.9% of the Parent's common stock outstanding as of the closing of
     the transaction. The shares of Series B Preferred Stock also will be
     redeemable by the Parent at any time, and will be subject to mandatory
     redemption beginning on the sixth anniversary of issuance, in each case at
     a redemption price of $1,000 per share plus accrued dividends. The
     transaction is expected to close in January 1996. Under the Inventory and
     Working Capital Agreement, as recently amended, with IBM Credit Corp., the
     Company is required to pay all of the net proceeds of the Color Server
     business transaction to IBM Credit Corp. in order to reduce the Company's
     outstanding indebtedness under that agreement.

     IBM CREDIT CORP.
     On December 14, 1995, the Company and IBM Credit Corp. ("ICC") amended the
     Inventory and Working Capital Financing Agreement (the "ICC Agreement")
     entered into by the Company and ICC on February 17, 1995 and subsequently
     revised in September 1995 to fund the manufacturing of the Company's MacOS
     compatible systems products. See Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial
     Statements. Under the amendment, ICC waived the Company's failure to comply
     with all of its contractual obligations and financial covenants under the
     ICC Agreement. The ICC Amendment, among other things, also provides that
     until March 31, 1996 ICC will extend advances to the Company in an amount
     up to 90% of the Company's collections and fund the Company's payroll in
     the event that collections are insufficient to permit the advances needed
     for this purpose. Such advances and payroll funding, however, may be
     suspended by ICC (i) immediately following a default of the ICC Amendment,
     and (ii) following thirty (30) days notice in the event of any default of
     the ICC Agreement. The ICC Amendment also requires the Company to pay all
     of the net proceeds of the Color Server Group transaction to ICC to reduce
     the Company's outstanding indebtedness under the ICC Agreement.

     1995 STOCK OPTION PLAN
     On December 20, 1995, the Company's Board of Directors adopted the 1995
     Stock Option Plan to replace the 1986 Stock Option Plan that expires in
     1996, and reserved 850,000 shares (plus all unissued and unexercised shares
     available under the existing 1986 Stock Option Plan) for issuance
     thereunder. The 1995 Stock Option Plan is subject to shareholder approval.
     See Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
