                   OSICOM TECHNOLOGIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
              NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



(NOTE A) - The Company, Basis of Presentation and Acquisitions

         The accompanying consolidated unaudited financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and, in the opinion
of management, include all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring
adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation.  The results of operations for
the three months and nine months ended October 31, 1995 are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending
January 31, 1996.  These statements should be read in conjunction with the
consolidated audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the
Company's annual report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended January 31, 1995.
In addition, refer to the acquisition of Dynair Electronics, Inc. reported on
the Form 8-K filed August 22, 1995.

(NOTE B) - Significant Accounting Policies

         (1)     Principles of Consolidation:

         The balance sheet reflects the accounts of Osicom and its wholly-owned
subsidiary Meret.  The consolidated unaudited statements of operations for the
three months and nine months ended October 31, 1995 include the results of
operations of Osicom and  Meret.  The consolidated unaudited statements of
operations for the three months and nine months ended October 31, 1994 include
the results of operations of Osicom and its subsidiaries, and the discontinued
operations of Adtech.

         (2)     Amortization of Intangibles:

         Excess of fair value over cost of net assets acquired (negative
goodwill) is amortized over 3 years on a straight-line basis.

         (3)     Depreciation and Amortization:

         Depreciation of property and equipment is computed using the
straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets (generally 3
to 5 years).  Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of their
estimated useful life or the term of the lease.

         (4)     Inventories:

         Inventories, comprised of raw materials, work in process and finished
goods, are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market.
Inventories consist of:

(NOTE F) - Loan Payable - Bank

          At October 31, 1995, the Company had outstanding indebtedness under
its revolving demand loan agreement with Banca di Roma of $560,209.  The
agreement provides for interest at 1% above the bank's base lending rate, which
was 9%, at October 31, 1995.  The line of credit is collateralized by accounts
receivable and personally guaranteed by a director of the Company.  In
addition, the Company had outstanding indebtedness under its line of credit
with a financing company of $1,893,895 at October 31, 1995.  The line of credit
is collateralized by accounts receivable, inventory and property, plant and
equipment.  This line of credit provides for interest at prime plus 2.5%.


(NOTE G) - Income Taxes

         The Company recorded no income tax provision for the three months and
nine months ended October 31, 1995 and 1994.  A significant portion of the net
income reported by the Company for those periods arose from the amortization of
negative goodwill which is not taxable.  In addition, the Company has other
temporary differences, primarily depreciation, that can be utilized to offset
any remaining taxable income.  Both the negative goodwill amortization and the
depreciation differences arose out of the Company's acquisitions of Meret and
Catel.  The Company also has other tax attributes arising from the Meret and
Catel acquisitions that could give rise to the recording of deferred tax
assets.  Upon acquisition, management determined that realization of such
benefits was not assured thus, no deferred asset was recorded.  At October 31,
1995, management determined that realization of any future benefits is still
not assured thus, no deferred tax assets were recorded.  The Company believes
that any remaining net operating losses incurred by the Company, prior to the
acquisitions, available to offset future taxable income, may be severely
limited by the provisions of Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code.


(NOTE H) - Commitments and Contingencies

         (1)     The Company leases warehouse and office space in Santa Monica,
Fremont and San Diego, California.  The Santa Monica and Fremont leases end on
January 31, 1996 and July 31, 1997 respectively.  The San Diego facility is a
month-to-month lease.  These leases include escalations for real estate taxes
and certain operating expenses.  Rent expense for the Company for the three
months and nine months ended October 31, 1995 and 1994 was $123,000 and
$285,000 and $84,000 and $222,000, and respectively net of monthly sublease
income of $8,000.  The sublease expires on January 31, 1996.

         (2)     The Company is party to several lawsuits related to trade
claims made by and against the Company.  The Company is in litigation or is
attempting to settle these lawsuits.  The majority of such claims have been
assigned to Agama, Inc. in conjunction with the sale of the Company's former
computer business and as such Agama, Inc. has indemnified the Company against
any unfavorable outcomes.  Management believes that the ultimate outcome of
these lawsuits will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's
financial position and future operations.

the acquisition date.  As of October 31, 1995, no liability related to this
additional consideration has been incurred.

         (2)  During Fiscal 1993, in conjunction with the retirement of its
United Jersey Bank debt, the Company issued United Jersey Bank options to
purchase 50,000 shares of its common stock.  This option expires on December
31, 2002.  Under a redemption agreement, the Company can redeem the options for
$450,000 or $600,000 if redeemed by September 30, 1995 or 1996, respectively

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

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations should be read in conjunction with the consolidated unaudited
financial statements and related notes thereto.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED OCTOBER 31, 1995 AND 1994

         Results of operations for the three months ended October 31, 1995
include the continuing operations of Osicom and its wholly-owned subsidiary
Meret.  Results of operations for the three months ended October 31, 1994
include the continuing operations of Osicom and its subsidiaries and the
discontinued operations of Adtech.

         Consolidated net sales increased by 32% to $2,695,000 from
$2,040,000.  Consolidated gross profit increased by 61% to $1,086,000 from
$675,000, due to the increase in net sales.

         Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $779,000
from $484,000, an increase as a percentage of sales from 24% to 29%.  This
increase is due to the commissions to independent representatives that sell
certain of its products.  For the three months ended October 31, 1995 these
commissions were $125,000.  Amortization of negative goodwill of $238,000 was
consistent with the previous year's three months ended October 31.  Interest
expense incurred increased from $22,000 to $40,000 due to the borrowings
against the working capital line to fund the increased level of business
revenues.

         Consolidated income from continuing operations increased 58% to
$266,000 as compared to $168,000.  As a percentage of sales, consolidated
income from continuing operations increased from 8% to 10%.  Consolidated net
income increased 129% to $266,000 from $116,000.  As a percentage of sales,
consolidated net income increased from 6% to 10% due to the discontinuance of
the operations of Adtech.  Consolidated net income included a loss from the
discontinued operations of Adtech approximately $52,000 for the three months
ended October 31, 1994.

         Due to the offsetting of non-current assets against negative goodwill
in the Meret and Catel acquisitions, as required by generally accepted
accounting principles, productive fixed assets which cost $6.1 million and with
a net book value of approximately $1,900,000 at acquisition, have not been
recorded.  Accordingly, there is no depreciation charge to operations for these
assets which are used in the operations of Meret and Catel.

         As of November 15, 1995, the Company had a backlog of over $2,300,000.



RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED OCTOBER 31, 1995 AND 1994

         Results of Operations for the nine months ended October 31, 1995
include the operations of Osicom and its wholly-owned subsidiary Meret. Results
of operations for the nine months ended October 31, 1994 include continuing
operations of Osicom and its subsidiaries and the discontinued operations of
Adtech.

         Consolidated net sales increased by 20% to $5,559,000 from
$4,631,000.  Consolidated gross profit increased by 36% to $2,231,000 from
$1,646,000, due to the increase in net sales.

         Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $1,575,000
from $1,081,000, an increase as a percentage of sales from 23% to 28%.  This
increase is due to the commissions to independent representatives that sell
certain of its products.  For the nine months ended October 31, 1995 these
commissions were $264,000.   Amortization of negative goodwill was $713,000
compared to $724,000 for the previous year.  Interest expense incurred
increased from $56,000 to $86,000 due to the borrowings against the new line of
credit.

         Consolidated income from continuing operations increased 12% to
$570,000 as compared to $509,000.  As a percentage of sales, consolidated
income from continuing operations decreased from 11% to 10%.  Consolidated net
income increased 145% to $570,000 from $233,000.  As a percentage of sales,
consolidated net income increased from 5% to 10% due primarily to the
discontinuance of the operations of Adtech.





                                                                              12
<PAGE>   13




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

Consolidated net income included a loss from the discontinued operations of
Adtech of approximately $276,000 for the nine months ended October 31, 1994.



LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         The Company had a cash balance of $606,000 and working capital of
$3,253,000 at the period ended October 31, 1995, which management believes is
adequate to meet its planned level of growth.

         The continuing operations of the Company consumed cash of
approximately $1,571,000 as compared to $910,000 for the nine months ended
October 31, 1995 and 1994 respectively. Cash flows from financing activities
for the nine months ended October 31, 1995 and 1994 provided $2,097,000 and
$553,000 respectively.  During the nine months ended October 31, 1995, the
Company paid $100,000 against the bank loan, borrowed a net amount of
$1,894,000 against the credit line described below and collected $504,000 from
notes receivable.  In addition, the Company received $165,000 in proceeds from
the issuance of common stock during the nine months ended October 31, 1995.
During the three months and nine months ended October 31, 1994, the Company
paid $96,000 against the note issued for the acquisition of Catel in 1993 and
collected $555,000 from notes receivable.  Expenditures for capital equipment
in both periods were negligible.

        On April 14, 1995, Coast Business Credit ("the lender") and Meret
entered into an agreement ("the agreement") for a $5 million revolving line of
credit collateralized by inventories, receivables and property, plant and
equipment.  Osicom has guaranteed the debt to the extent of $600,000.  The
agreement provides for interest at 2 1/2% over the prime rate, but in no event 
less  than 8%.  The agreement provides for advances of 80% of eligible accounts
receivable and 25% of eligible inventories not to exceed the lesser of 
$1,000,000 or 75% of the then outstanding accounts receivable loan.  The
proceeds must be used for working capital for expansion and for other business
purposes.  The agreement remains in effect until May 31, 1998 and 
automatically renews for successive additional terms of one year on a 
continuous basis unless terminated by written notice of either party or by 
default  As of November 16, 1995, approximately $1,742,000 was outstanding 
under the loan agreement.

         On June 8, 1995, the Company acquired 100% of Dynair Electronics, Inc.
("Dynair").  Dynair is engaged in the business of designing, manufacturing,
marketing and supporting digital and analog switches and routers which are used
by the telecommunications industry to build the next generation of networks for
video-on-demand and related services.           

        The purchase price agreed to by the Company for Dynair was $269,807,
which was equal to the audited shareholder's equity of Dynair as of May 31,
1995 and was paid on September 8, 1995.  In addition to the above-mentioned
consideration, the seller of Dynair is entitled to receive additional cash
consideration equal to a percentage of net revenues in excess of $5,000,000
within a post-closing year derived from the sale of Dynair products, for each
of the five years subsequent to the acquisition date.

         Management believes that the Company has sufficient working capital to
meet the needs of the current level of operations.  Management is implementing
plans which it believes will enable the Company to internally generate funds
for its continuing operations.  There can be no assurance that these mechanisms
to improve liquidity will be effective.  The Company, however, is actively
seeking acquisitions and anticipates that it will require additional capital in
order to fund any acquisitions or substantial growth in its current business
and no assurances can be given that sufficient capital will be available when
needed.





                                                                              13

OSICOM TECHNOLOGIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.          Legal  Proceedings

         The Company is party to several lawsuits related to trade claims made
by and against the Company.  The Company is in litigation or is attempting to
settle these lawsuits.  The majority of such claims have been assigned to
Agama, Inc. in conjunction with the sale of the Company's computer business,
and as such Agama, Inc. has indemnified the Company against any unfavorable
outcomes.  Management believes that the ultimate outcome of these lawsuits will
not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position and
future operations.
