(Unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of
Newbridge Networks Corporation (the "Company") have been prepared in accordance
with accounting principles generally accepted in Canada for interim financial
information. These accounting principles are also generally accepted in the
United States ("U.S. GAAP") in all material respects except for the write off of
purchased in process research and development, as disclosed in Note 3,
disclosure of certain cash equivalents on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and
investing activities on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, as disclosed
in Note 7, and the method of calculation of earnings per share, as disclosed in
Note 10.
In the opinion of Management, the unaudited interim consolidated financial
statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments considered necessary for
fair presentation.
The results of operations for the third fiscal quarter and the three fiscal
quarters ended January 26, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the results to
be expected for the fiscal year ending April 30, 1997.
2. Acquisitions and Dispositions of Subsidiaries
The impact on cash flows of the Company derived from activities in acquiring and
divesting controlling interests' in subsidiaries is summarized as follows.

3. Acquisition of Ungermann-Bass Networks Inc.
On January 17, 1997, the Company acquired a 100% equity interest in
Ungermann-Bass Networks, Inc. ("UB Networks"), a manufacturer of local area
network equipment based in Santa Clara, California, by the purchase of shares
for cash consideration of $146,590,000. The purchase price includes professional
fees and other direct costs of the acquisition, and excludes additional
contingent payments which may be made over the next two years based on 50% of
the gross margin earned on UB Networks' products above a certain amount which
approximates the gross margin earned on the products prior to the acquisition,
up to a maximum of 50% of the purchase price paid to the seller. The acquisition
has been accounted for by the purchase method of accounting. Technology
acquired, related to UB Networks' research and development in process, is stated
at fair value and is being amortized on a straight line basis over three years.
Amortization will commence in the period in which the technology acquired
results in product sales. Goodwill is being amortized on a straight line basis
over a ten year period, commencing in the fiscal period following that in which
the investment was made. The recoverability of purchased in process research and
development as well as goodwill are reviewed on an ongoing basis. The Company's
investment in UB Networks is summarized below.

The provision for restructuring relates to programs instituted by the Company to
integrate the operations of UB Networks with the Company and to eliminate
redundant functions. The provision for restructuring comprises the following
components.
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>

Reduction in work force $26,153
Reduction in facilities 11,582
Discontinued activities 9,787
Other restructuring costs 6,457
-------
$53,979
=======
</TABLE>
The provision for reduction in work force includes severance, related medical
and other benefits, relocation costs and other obligations to employees. The
provision includes termination benefits for approximately 300 employees. The
work force reductions are in all functions and in all regions in which UB
Networks operates. The Company anticipates that these work force reductions will
be substantially completed by the second quarter of fiscal 1998.
The provision for reduction in facilities comprises primarily lease payments and
fixed costs associated with plans to close sales, support and administrative
facilities in the Americas, Europe and Asia Pacific geographic areas.
The provision for discontinued activities includes costs associated with the
disposition of assets and fulfilling prior commitments related to certain
discontinued product lines and activities. The Company anticipates these costs
to be incurred over the next year.
The provision for other restructuring costs comprises various direct incremental
costs associated with the integration of operations of UB Networks with the
Company.
The operating results of UB Networks from the acquisition date of January 17,
1997 to the end of the third fiscal quarter ended January 26, 1997 were not
material and therefore not consolidated into the operating results of the
Company. The Consolidated Balance Sheet as at January 26, 1997 includes the
assets acquired and liabilities assumed of UB Networks, the components of which
are shown in the table of the Company's investment in UB Networks above.
4. Acquisition of Coasin Chile S.A.
Effective November 1, 1996 the Company acquired a 51% equity interest in Coasin
Chile S.A. ("Coasin"), a Chilean systems integrator of networking products, by
the purchase of shares in the amount of $14,129,000. The purchase price excludes
additional contingent payments which may be made over the next two years
depending upon the financial performance of Coasin, up to a maximum of
US$2,595,000. The acquisition has been accounted for by the purchase method of
accounting. Goodwill is being amortized on a straight line basis over a twenty
year period.

5. Acquisition of Danring A/S
On January 16, 1997, the Company acquired a 100% equity interest in Danring A/S
("Danring"), a Danish systems integrator of networking products, by the purchase
of shares in the amount of $11,144,000. The acquisition has been accounted for
by the purchase method of accounting. Goodwill is being amortized on a straight
line basis over a twenty year period.

The operating results of Danring from the acquisition date of January 16, 1997

and therefore not consolidated into the operating results of the Company. The
Consolidated Balance Sheet at January 26, 1997 includes the assets acquired and
liabilities assumed of Danring, the components of which are shown in the table
of the Company's investment in Danring above.
6. Acquisition of Ouest Standard Telematique
In August 1996, the Company acquired a 100% equity interest in Ouest Standard
Telematique S.A. ("OST"), a manufacturer of local area network equipment based
in France, by the purchase of shares in the amount of $34,231,000. The purchase
price excludes additional contingent payments which may be made over the next
three years depending on the financial performance of OST, up to a maximum of
US$10,000,000. The acquisition has been accounted for by the purchase method of
accounting. Goodwill is being amortized on a straight line basis over a twenty

10. Earnings per Share
Under accounting principles generally accepted in Canada, basic earnings per
share is calculated as net earnings for the period divided by the daily weighted
average number of Common Shares outstanding during the period. Fully diluted
earnings per share is calculated as net earnings plus after tax imputed earnings
on the cash which would have been received on the exercise of options, divided
by the daily weighted average number of Common Shares and common share
equivalents outstanding during the period.
Under U.S. GAAP earnings per share is calculated using the treasury stock
method. Earnings per share in U.S. dollars is disclosed for the convenience of
the reader. The exchange rates used for translation are based on the daily
average exchange rate of a Canadian dollar for U.S. dollars as reported by the
Federal Reserve Bank of New York. The calculation of net earnings (loss) and
earnings (loss) per share under U.S. GAAP are as follows.

11. Litigation
During the fiscal year ended April 30, 1995, the Company was served with one of
several complaints filed in United States District Court in Washington, D.C. by
certain persons purporting to be purchasers of Common Shares of the Company. On
or about May 8, 1995 these complaints were combined into a single consolidated
and amended complaint (the "First Amended Complaint") which named the Company
and certain of its executive officers as defendants. The First Amended Complaint
purported to be a class action on behalf of a class of persons who purchased
securities of the Company between March 29 and August 1, 1994 and alleged that
the Company made false and misleading statements in violation of United States
securities law and common law, for which damages were sought in unspecified
amounts. On June 3, 1996, the Court issued an order granting in part and denying
in part the defendants' motion to dismiss. Among other things, the Court
dismissed with prejudice the claim alleging violation of common law. The Court
also dismissed the majority of plaintiffs' allegations of violation of United
States securities law, but granted plaintiffs leave to replead these allegations
in a Second Amended Complaint, which plaintiffs filed on July 3, 1996. The Court
further conditionally certified the action as a class action without prejudice
to the Company's right to
(Page 14 of 27)
<PAGE>
renew its objection to class action certification upon completion of discovery.
The defendants have moved to dismiss the Second Amended Complaint. The Company
intends to continue to defend this action vigorously. Based upon its present
understanding of the laws in the United States and the facts, the Company
believes it has meritorious defenses to the action. Because the outcome of the
action is not certain at this time, no provision for any liability that may
result upon adjudication has been made in these financial statements.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
During the quarter ended January 26, 1997, the Company acquired 100% equity
interests in Ungermann-Bass Networks, Inc. ("UB Networks") and Danring A/S
("Danring"), as well as a 51% equity interest in Coasin Chile S.A. ("Coasin").
UB Networks is a manufacturer of local area network equipment based in Santa
Clara, California. Danring and Coasin are systems integrators of networking
products in Denmark and Chile respectively. The operating results of both UB
Networks and Danring from the acquisition date to the end of the third fiscal
quarter ended January 26, 1997 were not material and therefore not consolidated
into the operating results of the Company. Coasin was acquired effective
November 1, 1996. Because Coasin's fiscal quarters end at calendar quarter ends,
two months of Coasin's results were consolidated with those of the Company for
the fiscal quarter ended January 26, 1997. The Consolidated Balance Sheet as at
January 26, 1997 includes the assets acquired and liabilities assumed of UB
Networks, Danring and Coasin.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Sales increased in the third fiscal quarter of fiscal 1997 ended January 26,
1997 by 41% compared to sales in the third quarter of fiscal 1996 ended January
28, 1996. The increase in sales resulted in net earnings of $63,031,000 for the
third quarter of fiscal 1997, an increase of 17% over net earnings for the third
quarter of fiscal 1996. For the first nine months of fiscal 1997 sales increased
44% compared to sales in the first nine months of fiscal 1996, resulting in net
earnings of $186,613,000 for the first nine months of fiscal 1997, an increase
of 37% over net earnings for the first nine months of fiscal 1996.

Product line enhancements and new products introduced in fiscal 1995 and fiscal
1996 resulted in increased sales in the third quarter and first nine months of
fiscal 1997 relative to the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 1996
in the public networking and private corporate networking markets worldwide.
This increase principally reflected growth in sales in Europe, the Asia Pacific
region and Latin America, as well as higher sales of products based on ATM
(asynchronous transfer mode) and other packet-based technologies and advanced
circuit switched networking multiplexers. The Company's sales in the third
quarter and first nine months of fiscal 1997 to telephone companies and other
carriers for central office applications for tariffed services, for use within
their internal networks and for resale to end users increased relative to the
overall increase in sales compared to the third quarter and first nine months of
fiscal 1996. Sales to carriers represented 70% of total sales in the third
quarter of fiscal 1997 and 69% for the first nine months of fiscal 1997,
compared to 65% of total sales in the third quarter and 64% in the first nine
months of fiscal 1996. Deliveries to original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) for
carrier customers and deliveries under certain large contracts with carriers
contributed significantly to sales in the third quarter and first nine months of
fiscal 1997 and the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 1996. Sales to
Siemens A.G. and subsidiaries, generally under OEM arrangements for resale to
end users, were greater than 10% of total sales for the third quarter and first
nine months of fiscal 1997.
(Page 16 of 27)
<PAGE>
The Company expects the proportion of sales derived from products based on
packet technologies to continue to increase relative to sales derived from
circuit switched networking multiplexers in fiscal 1997 when compared to fiscal
1996. The Company is also subject to a greater degree of variation in quarterly
sales of circuit switched networking multiplexers as an increasing proportion of
sales of these products is expected to be derived from less mature, high growth
markets outside of North America.
Product sales and service revenues attributable to UB Networks are expected to
represent between 15% and 25% of the Company's consolidated revenues for the
fourth quarter of fiscal 1997 ending April 30, 1997. In addition, because UB
Networks products are generally sold into corporate networks, the proportion of
sales to carriers is expected to decline to less than 60% of total sales in the
fourth quarter of fiscal 1997.
A significant portion of the Company's sales are derived from products shipped
against orders received in each fiscal quarter and from products shipped against
firm purchase orders released in that fiscal quarter. Unforeseen delays in
product deliveries or closing large sales, introductions of new products by the
Company or its competitors, seasonal patterns of customer capital expenditures
or other conditions affecting the networking industry in particular or the
economy generally during any fiscal quarter could cause quarterly revenue and,
to a greater degree, net earnings, to vary greatly.
Because substantial portions of the Company's sales, cost of sales and other
expenses are denominated in U.S. dollars and Pounds Sterling, the Company's
results of operations are subject to change based on fluctuations in the rates
of exchange of those currencies for the Canadian dollar. During the third
quarter of fiscal 1997, the decrease in the value of the Canadian dollar against
the Pound Sterling, offset by an increase in the Canadian dollar against the
U.S. dollar, relative to exchange rates in the third quarter of fiscal 1996,
resulted in no material variance in reported sales, gross margin or income from
operations. During the first nine months of fiscal 1997, the decrease in the
value of the Canadian dollar against the U.S. dollar and the Pound Sterling,
relative to exchange rates in the first nine months of fiscal 1996, resulted in
no material variance in reported sales, gross margin or income from operations.

Cost of sales consists of manufacturing costs, warranty expense and costs
associated with the provision of services. The gross margin as a percentage of
sales declined slightly in the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal
1997 relative to the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 1996. The
decline was primarily the result of a decline in the proportion of total
revenues derived from sales of products earning high gross margins expressed as
a percentage of sales, such as network management software and advanced
networking multiplexers. Revenues generating gross margins below the Company's
average gross margins, such as service revenues, increased as a proportion of
overall revenues. In addition, gross margins earned on product sales and service
revenues of companies acquired during fiscal 1997 have been below the average
gross margins earned on the Company's other products. If the proportion of
revenues
(Page 17 of 27)
<PAGE>
derived from service and lower margin products increases or selling prices
decline, the gross margin expressed as a percentage of sales could decline
further.
Based on historical gross margins achieved by UB Networks, the Company expects
the consolidation of the operating results of UB Networks in the fourth quarter
of fiscal 1997 to reduce the overall gross margin of the Company, expressed as a
percentage of sales, by 3% to 6%.

Selling, general and administration expenses increased in the third quarter and

months of fiscal 1996 primarily as a result of increases in sales and service
personnel as the Company invested in programs to strengthen its sales and
support infrastructure throughout the world and to market new products. The
growth in sales and service personnel from the first nine months of fiscal 1996
to the first nine months of fiscal 1997 was less than the rate of growth in
sales over the same period, and as a result, selling, general and administration
expenses decreased as a percentage of sales.
The acquisition of UB Networks is expected to result in an increase in selling,
general and administration expenses, expressed as a percentage of sales, of 2%
to 4% in the fourth quarter of fiscal 1997.

</TABLE>
Research and development expenditures consist primarily of software and hardware
engineering personnel expenses, subcontracted research and development costs and
costs associated with equipment and facilities. The increased costs in the third
quarter and first nine months of fiscal 1997 compared to the third quarter and
first nine months of fiscal 1996 reflect spending on new networking products and
features and product enhancements, particularly for integral ATM and frame relay
products in both wide area network and local area network interworking
applications.
Recoveries decreased as a percentage of gross expenditures in the third quarter
and first nine months of fiscal 1997 compared to the third quarter and first
nine months of fiscal 1996 due to a decline in investment tax credits and
customer, government and other funding as a proportion of gross research and
development expenditures. Based on Management's estimates of the proportion of
fiscal 1997 gross research and development expenditures eligible for investment
tax credits, current levels of committed funding, and estimated amortization of
deferred software development costs, Management expects the level of recoveries
as a percentage of gross research and development expenditures in fiscal 1997 to
decline relative to fiscal 1996.
Of the acquisitions made by the Company in the third quarter of fiscal 1997 only
UB Networks undertakes research and development activities. Management expects
for the fourth quarter of fiscal 1997, research and development spending,
expressed as a percentage of sales, will not materially increase due to the
acquisition of UB Networks.
The markets for the Company's products are characterized by continuing
technological change. As a result, Management believes that continued
significant expenditures for research and development will be required in the
future.

rates earned on investments. Interest expense on long term obligations increased
in the third quarter of fiscal 1997 due to the assumption of long term
obligations of companies acquired by the Company during fiscal 1997. Other
expenses represented less than 1% of sales in the third quarter and first nine
months of fiscal 1997 and fiscal 1996. Other expenses in the third quarter of
fiscal 1996 include a gain of $3,967,000 on the divestiture related to the sale
of a 61% equity interest in Tundra Semiconductor Corporation through a private
placement.

The composite rates of income tax for the third quarter and first nine months of
fiscal 1997 and fiscal 1996 were reduced from the statutory rate primarily as a
result of the application of certain deductions related to manufacturing and
processing activities and to research and development expenditures in Canada.
Future changes in the composite rate of income tax will be primarily due to the
relative profitability of operations and the national tax policies in each of
the various countries in which the Company operates. Management believes that
the composite rate of income tax will remain lower than the statutory rate
through the application of deductions related to manufacturing and processing
activities and research and development expenditures in Canada as well as other
tax planning measures undertaken by the Company.
Non-Controlling Interest
The non-controlling interests' share of net earnings of $2,632,000 in the third
quarter ($4,625,000 in the first nine months) of fiscal 1997 was derived from
net earnings of Transistemas S.A., an Argentine systems integrator of networking
products, Coasin Chile S.A., a systems integrator of networking products and
ACC, a manufacturer of local area network bridges and routers. The Company has a
51% equity interest in Transistemas S.A., Coasin Chile S.A., and ACC. The
non-controlling interests' share of net losses of $943,000 in the first nine
months of fiscal 1996 was due primarily to restructuring costs incurred by ACC.
(Page 20 of 27)
<PAGE>
Net Earnings
An increase in sales resulted in net earnings of $63,031,000 for the third
quarter of fiscal 1997, an increase of 17% over net earnings for the third
quarter of fiscal 1996. Net earnings of $186,613,000 for the first nine months
of fiscal 1997 increased 37% relative to net earnings of $136,369,000 for the
first nine months of fiscal 1996 principally due to the increase in sales of 44%
over the same period.
Under U.S. GAAP, purchased in process research and development acquired by the
Company on the acquisition of UB Networks would be written off at the time of
acquisition. Accordingly, the determination of net earnings (loss) under U.S.
GAAP is as follows.

The Company expects that the acquisitions of UB Networks, Danring and Coasin
will not have a material effect on operating income from continuing operations
for the fourth quarter of fiscal 1997 ending April 30, 1997.
FINANCIAL CONDITION
During the first nine months of fiscal 1997 ended January 26, 1997 working
capital decreased from $658,087,000 to $579,681,000. As at January 26, 1997 the
Company had $355,994,000 of cash and cash equivalents, which decreased by
$99,755,000 during the first nine months of fiscal 1997. The decrease is due to
cash used for the acquisitions of subsidiaries of $206,960,000 and additions to
property, plant and equipment of $81,611,000, offset by net earnings for the
first nine months of fiscal 1997 of $186,613,000.
Two principal components of the Company's working capital are accounts
receivable and inventory. Management believes that the payment terms and
conditions extended to the Company's customers, arrangements with the Company's
suppliers, and the levels of inventory the Company carries relative to its
levels of sales are consistent with practices generally prevailing in the
networking industry.
Existing short term bank credit facilities consist of operating lines of credit
with certain banks in the aggregate amount of $66,872,000. At January 26, 1997
there were no outstanding borrowings under these lines of credit.
On January 17, 1997, the Company acquired a 100% equity interest in UB Networks
by the purchase of shares in the amount of $146,590,000. The purchase price
includes professional fees and other direct costs of the acquisition, and
excludes additional contingent payments which may be made over the next two
years based on 50% of the gross margin earned on UB Networks' products above a
certain amount which approximates the gross margin earned on the products prior
to the acquisition, up to a maximum of 50% of the purchase price paid to the
seller. The acquisition has been accounted for by the purchase method of
accounting.
(Page 21 of 27)
<PAGE>
Effective November 1, 1996 the Company acquired a 51% equity interest in Coasin
by the purchase of shares in the amount of $14,129,000. The purchase price
excludes additional contingent payments which may be made over the next two
years depending upon the financial performance of Coasin, up to a maximum of
US$2,595,000. The acquisition has been accounted for by the purchase method of
accounting.
On January 16, 1997, the Company acquired a 100% equity interest in Danring by
the purchase of shares in the amount of $11,144,000. The acquisition has been
accounted for by the purchase method of accounting.
In August 1996, the Company acquired a 100% equity interest in OST, a
manufacturer of local area network equipment based in France, by the purchase of
shares in the amount of $34,231,000. The purchase price excludes additional
contingent payments which may be made over the next three years depending on the
financial performance of OST, up to a maximum of US$10,000,000. The acquisition
was accounted for by the purchase method of accounting.
Management anticipates that capital expenditures for fiscal 1997 will exceed
those of fiscal 1996 as the Company invests in new facilities in Canada, in
research and development and manufacturing equipment and in information systems.
The Company also anticipates increasing its current investments in subsidiaries
and associated companies, and intends to extinguish its existing long term
obligations as they become due. The Company intends to fund the increased
capital expenditures, increased investments and retirement of long term
obligations with existing cash and cash generated from operations during fiscal
1997. In addition, the Company may use a portion of its cash resources,
supplemented as appropriate by the issuance of shares, to continue to extend or
enhance its business and diversify its marketing and distribution channels
through acquisitions of or investments in businesses, products or technologies
or through the formation of strategic partnerships with other companies.
During August 1996, the Company filed a notice of intention with The Toronto
Stock Exchange to make a normal course issuer bid for common share repurchases
in open market transactions in the United States and Canada. The Company may
purchase up to 4,000,000 outstanding Common Shares in future if Management
considers such investments appropriate.
Management believes that the Company's liquidity in the form of existing cash
resources and its credit facilities, as well as cash generated from operations,
will prove adequate to meet its operating and capital expenditure requirements
through the end of fiscal 1997 and into the foreseeable future.
Certain parts of the foregoing discussion and analysis may be forward-looking
statements that involve a number of risks and uncertainties. As a consequence,
actual results might differ materially from results forecast or suggested in any
forward-looking statements. See "Market for Registrant's Common Equity and

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
During the fiscal year ended April 30, 1995, the Company was served with one of
several complaints filed in United States District Court in Washington, D.C. by
certain persons purporting to be purchasers of Common Shares of the Company. On
or about May 8, 1995 these complaints were combined into a single consolidated
and amended complaint (the "First Amended Complaint") which named the Company
and certain of its executive officers as defendants. The First Amended Complaint
purported to be a class action on behalf of a class of persons who purchased
securities of the Company between March 29 and August 1, 1994 and alleged that
the Company made false and misleading statements in violation of United States
securities law and common law, for which damages were sought in unspecified
amounts. On June 3, 1996, the Court issued an order granting in part and denying
in part the defendants' motion to dismiss. Among other things, the Court
dismissed with prejudice the claim alleging violation of common law. The Court
also dismissed the majority of plaintiffs' allegations of violation of United
States securities law, but granted plaintiffs leave to replead these allegations
in a Second Amended Complaint, which plaintiffs filed on July 3, 1996. The Court
further conditionally certified the action as a class action without prejudice
to the Company's right to renew its objection to class action certification upon
completion of discovery. The defendants have moved to dismiss the Second Amended
Complaint. The Company intends to continue to defend this action vigorously.
Based upon its present understanding of the laws in the United States and the
facts, the Company believes it has meritorious defenses to the action.
