                            PHOENIX TECHNOLOGIES LTD.
              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (unaudited)


NOTE 1.     BASIS OF PRESENTATION

         Phoenix Technologies Ltd. ("Phoenix" or the "Company") is a global
leader in system-enabling software solutions for PCs and connected digital
devices. The Company has three operating divisions, each of which delivers
leading products and professional services that enable connected computing. The
accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of Phoenix Technologies
Ltd. and its subsidiaries have been prepared by the Company, without audit,
pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been
condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The information
included in this report should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited
financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report
on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 1999.

         In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of
normal recurring adjustments) necessary to summarize fairly the Company's
financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods
presented. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been
eliminated. The operating results for the three-month period ended December 31,
1999, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the
fiscal year ending September 30, 2000, or for any other future period.

         Certain amounts in the fiscal 1999 financial statements have been
reclassified to conform to the fiscal 2000 presentation.


NOTE 2.     REVENUE RECOGNITION

         The Company adopted Statement of Position 98-9, ("SOP 98-9"),
Modification of SOP 97-2, "Software Revenue Recognition, With Respect to Certain
Transactions", as of October 1, 1999. The adoption of SOP 98-9 did not have a
material impact on the Company's consolidated financial results. However, full
implementation guidelines for these standards have not been issued. Once
available, the current revenue recognition accounting practices may need to
change and such changes could affect the Company's future revenues and results
of operations.


NOTE 3.     CASH EQUIVALENTS

         All highly liquid securities purchased with an original maturity of
less than three months are considered cash equivalents.


NOTE 4.     RESTRUCTURING CHARGES

         In the first quarter of fiscal 1999, the Company recorded a
restructuring charge of $1.9 million related to the facilities consolidations
and streamlining certain field operations and other functions, including closing
the offices in Texas and France. The restructuring charge included $1.8 million
of severance benefits associated with the elimination of approximately 38
positions in engineering, sales, marketing, and administration from various
product divisions, field operations, and general administrative functions, as
well as $0.1 million related to facilities abandonment. As of December 31, 1999,
approximately $0.2 million was unpaid.

NOTE 5.     EARNINGS PER SHARE

         The following table presents the calculations of basic and diluted
earnings per share under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128
("SFAS 128"), "Earnings per Share" (IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE AMOUNTS):

NOTE 6.     COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (LOSS)

          As of October 1, 1998, the Company adopted Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 130 ("SFAS 130"), "Reporting Comprehensive Income."
SFAS 130 establishes new rules for the reporting and display of comprehensive
income and its components; however, the adoption of this Statement had no
impact on the Company's net income or stockholders' equity. SFAS 130 requires
unrealized gains or losses on the Company's available-for-sale securities and
foreign currency translation adjustments, which are reported separately in
stockholders' equity, to be included in comprehensive income.

         Following are the components of comprehensive income (IN THOUSANDS):

</TABLE>

         Asian revenue increased while North American and European revenue
decreased in the three-month period ended December 31, 1999 due to the
outsourcing of system design and manufacturing to Asian PC and motherboard
manufacturers and to increased Japan PC shipments. The Company's growth rate
in Platform Enabling revenue may be impacted in future quarters by a possible
decline in average selling prices due in part to the transition of design and
manufacturing to Asia.

         One customer accounted for 13% of total revenue during the three-month
period ended December 31, 1999. No customer accounted for more than 10% of
revenue during the three-month period ended December 31, 1998.

         Service revenue in the first quarter of fiscal 2000 decreased 21% over
the comparable period in fiscal 1999, primarily due to the market shift to Asia
where a higher proportion of total revenues has historically been generated from
license fees.

GROSS MARGIN

         Gross margin as a percentage of revenue was 82% and 79% for the
three-month periods ended December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. Included
in the costs of revenue was $0.5 million and $0.3 million of amortization of
purchased technologies from Sand Microelectronics for the three months ended
December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively. Gross margin as a percentage of
revenue before the amortization of purchased technology was 83% and 81% for
the three-month periods ended December 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively.
Service gross margin as a percentage of revenue declined to 19% in the
quarter ended December 31, 1999, from 26% in the quarter ended December 31,
1998. This decrease was mostly due to a decline in service revenues mentioned
above, partially offset by a reallocation of engineering resources from
deployment to development.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES

         Research and development expenses for the three-month period ended
December 31, 1999, increased $0.4 million (4%) from the comparable period in
fiscal 1999. This increase was primarily due to a $0.9 million of non-recurring
license fee related to certain web-based PhoenixNet technologies, partially
offset by decreased headcount as a result of the Company gaining efficiency
after the fiscal 1999 reorganizations into three operating divisions.

         The Company capitalized $0.1 million and $0.6 million of internal
software development costs for the three-month periods ended December 31, 1999
and 1998, respectively. This decrease in capitalization was due to a higher
proportion of costs being incurred on non-capitalizable projects, such as
products that have not yet reached technological feasibility and tools
associated with the deployment of the Company's products. The Company believes
that continued investment in new and evolving technologies is essential to meet
the rapidly changing industry requirements.

SALES AND MARKETING EXPENSES

         Sales and marketing expenses for the three-month period ended December
31, 1999, decreased $0.3 million (4%) from the comparable period in fiscal 1999
mostly due to a reduction in the field sales management organization from a
fiscal 1999 reorganization, as well as lower tradeshow and related travel
activities.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

         General and administrative expenses for the three-month period ended
December 31, 1999, increased $0.5 million (11%) primarily due to increased
patent costs associated with the PhoenixNet division, as well as increased
variable compensation due to higher company profitability.

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


RESTRUCTURING CHARGES

         In the first quarter of fiscal 1999, the Company recorded a
restructuring charge of $1.9 million related to the facilities consolidations
and streamlining certain field operations and other functions, including closing
the offices in Texas and France. The restructuring charge included $1.8 million
of severance benefits associated with the elimination of approximately 38
positions in engineering, sales, marketing, and administration from various
product divisions, field operations, and general administrative functions, as
well as $0.1 million related to facilities abandonment. As of December 31, 1999,
approximately $0.2 million was unpaid.

STOCK-RELATED COMPENSATION

         The stock-related compensation charge in the three-month period ended
December 31, 1999, was mostly due to the granting of options to purchase
inSilicon stock at below-market prices.

INTEREST AND OTHER INCOME, NET

         Interest and other income, net, for the three-month period ended
December 31, 1999, decreased $0.7 million (57%) from the comparable period in
fiscal 1999. This decrease was primarily due to lower cash balances as a result
of stock repurchases in fiscal 1999.

PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES

         The Company recorded income tax provisions of $1.3 million and $0.4
million for the three-month periods ended December 31, 1999 and 1998,
respectively. The provisions for income taxes reflect an effective tax rate of
32% for both of the respective quarters.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         The Company's primary sources of liquidity include cash, cash
equivalents, short-term investments, other marketable securities, and a $10
million unsecured line of credit with a commercial bank that expires in March
2000. There were no borrowings outstanding under the credit facility at December
31, 1999. The Company believes that its existing sources of liquidity will be
sufficient to satisfy the Company's cash requirements for at least the next
twelve months.

         In fiscal 1999, the Board of Directors authorized two programs to
repurchase outstanding shares of common stock. Under these programs, the Company
repurchased approximately 3.3 million shares during fiscal 1999 at a total
aggregate cost of approximately $34.1 million. The Company repurchased an
additional 175,000 shares during the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 1999 at a
cost of approximately $2.1 million. As of October 1999, both repurchase programs
were completed and terminated.

CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITION

         Net cash provided by operating activities in the three months ended
December 31, 1999 was $3.9 million, consisting primarily of $2.7 million of net
income and $2.3 million of cash inflow from accounts receivable due to improved
collection, partially offset by payments of restructuring-related costs. Net
cash generated from investing activities in the three-month period ended
December 31, 1999 was $11.3 million, consisting primarily of $12.0 million of
net purchases of short-term and long-term investments and marketable securities,
partially offset by $0.5 million in purchases of property and equipment, and
$0.1 million in additions to computer software costs. Net cash used in financing
activities during the three months ended December 31, 1999, was $2.3 million,
consisted primarily of $6.3 million of cash used to repurchase the Company's
common stock, partially offset by $4.0 million generated from the exercise of
common stock options and the issuance of stock under the Company's employee
stock purchase plan.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT

         The Company adopted Statement of Position 98-9, ("SOP 98-9"),
Modification of SOP 97-2, "Software Revenue Recognition, With Respect to Certain
Transactions", as of October 1, 1999. The adoption of SOP 98-9 did

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


not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial results.
However, full implementation guidelines for these standards have not been
issued. Once available, the current revenue recognition accounting practices
may need to change and such changes could affect the Company's future
revenues and results of operations.

         In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS 133") and in June 1999, the FASB
issued SFAS No. 137, "Accounting for Derivative and Hedging Activities -
Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 133" ("SFAS 137"). SFAS 133
established methods of accounting for derivative financial instruments and
hedging activities related to those instruments as well as other hedging
activities. SFAS 137 deferred for one year the effective date of SFAS 133. The
Company is required to adopt these statements in fiscal 2001 and have not
determined the effect, if any, that adoption will have on the Company's
consolidated financial position or results of operations.

YEAR 2000

         Significant uncertainty existed in the software industry concerning the
potential effects associated with the Year 2000 ("Y2K") problem. Many software
and firmware products and internally developed applications used two digits to
designate the year instead of four digits, which could result in the
interpretation of the year 00 as 1900 or other dates instead of correctly
interpreting it as 2000. The PC industry has also defined the Y2K issue to
include proper handling of leap year calculations. A Y2K issue could disrupt
processing transactions or even cause certain systems to fail. This possibility
affects the Company's products and its information technology and other internal
systems as well as its customers and vendors.

         The Company's Y2K compliance effort covers the Company's products,
internal systems and services provided by others.

PHOENIX PRODUCTS

         HISTORY.  Since the Company's inception, it has sold or licensed
various products, including BIOS products, semiconductor intellectual
property and consumer software.

         Phoenix's BIOS products fall into differing definitions of Y2K
compliance. Most BIOS-related products sold or licensed after fiscal 1995 were
designed to automatically handle Y2K date changes. Most of the Company's BIOS
products prior to that date are manually compliant, which means that end users
must change the date once on their system after December 31, 1999 in order for
the system date to be proper. The Company identified one product line that was
not compliant at various shipment dates, and has made test utilities and fixes
available on the Company's web site to allow end users to test and update their
system's operation and automatically provide a fix if it is not Y2K compliant.
As of January 31, 2000, the Company recorded approximately 490,000 sessions to
the Company's Y2K information on its web site.

         The Company's semiconductor IP product lines do not generally handle
date-related functions and accordingly do not cause Y2K issues. The Company
discontinued consumer software product lines in 1996. Accordingly, the Company
does not believe that a material number of these products will remain in use
after January 1, 2000. The Company has developed a list of all products it sold
and licensed and has assessed the level of compliance of these products. This
effort was completed in the second quarter of 1999 fiscal year. As of January
31, 2000, the Company received approximately 35 inquiries concerning these
products.

         REMEDIAL STEPS. The Company sells and licenses its products directly to
OEMs and manufacturers of motherboards, and therefore does not have direct
customer relationships with end users of PCs or information appliances.
Nonetheless, for any products deemed to be less than fully compliant, the
Company has made available to end-users software upgrades, fixes or patches.
These solutions have been made available to users through the Company's web site
and a contracted call support center. The Company has also made these solutions
available to OEM customers for placement by those customers on their respective
web sites and delivery to their customers. Where appropriate, the Company has
undertaken other efforts to inform and deliver solutions to end-users. However,
there can be no assurance that end-users of products containing software sold or
licensed by the Company will become aware of the non-compliance of their
software, will take steps to download these solutions from the Internet, or that
such end users will have Internet access. The Company has estimated incremental

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


costs of providing these solutions and other end user support and estimated
costs to be approximately $3.3 million and has accrued this amount in the
fourth quarter of fiscal 1999.

         EXPOSURE. The Company continues to identify and assess any remaining
issues related to Y2K compliance of those products sold or licensed and the
number of those products remaining in use. There can be no assurance that the
Company will be able to identify all compliance issues for each of the products
it has sold or licensed during its history. Accordingly, the Company's estimate
of the cost of obtaining compliance and providing end user support is subject to
change.

INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY AND OTHER SYSTEMS

         The Company's plans for dealing with Y2K have included surveying and
testing or certifying all of the hardware and software used for compliance,
performing remediation where necessary, and developing contingency plans for
possible failure scenarios occurring after December 31, 1999.

         CURRENT STATUS. The Company's internal systems are generally based on
purchased software and operated on personal computers, PC servers and Unix
workstations and servers. The vast majority of hardware, including networking
hardware, is three years old or less. Software products in use range in age
generally from the latest upgrade to approximately ten years old. The Company
uses Oracle as its primary financial system, which has been upgraded recently to
a version, which Oracle represents is Y2K compliant. The Company has selected a
replacement for the code management system used in product development and
deployment. This code management system was purchased in fiscal 1999 and the
manufacturer represents that it is Y2K compliant. As of January 31, 2000, the
Company experienced no Y2K compliance issues resulting from the code management
system.
         The Company executed a project plan, approved by its Board of
Directors, and tested its hardware and software. A key element of the plan was
to identify and test all firmware and software, including embedded firmware and
software in other systems, such as building access and temperature control
systems. All tests and necessary remediation have been completed.

         TEST, CERTIFICATION AND REMEDIATION. Third party software was used to
test each of the computer systems and inventory all applications in use. The
application information was compared to vendor or other published databases with
Y2K compliance information. Remedial action was performed where necessary, which
usually involved acquiring and implementing an upgrade. For those applications
not found in the published Y2K information, the vendors were contacted, and
where necessary, upgrades were acquired and implemented. Where the vendor no
longer existed, a determination was made, based on the importance of the
application, to test and, if necessary, modify it internally, replace it or
ignore it.

         COST OF COMPLIANCE TESTING AND REMEDIATION. The Company spent
approximately $355,000 in testing, remediation and upgrades. The new code
management system is expected to cost approximately $2 million for software,
implementation assistance and training, excluding the cost of the Company's
personnel involved in the project. The Company's Information Technology
personnel spent approximately $314,000 on Y2K issues during fiscal 1999 and the
first quarter of fiscal 2000. Software purchases and certain other related costs
have been capitalized and depreciated while other costs are charged directly to
expense. Y2K expenses are being funded through operating cash flows. Total
anticipated Y2K expenditures are not material to the Company's financial
condition or results of operations. However there can be no assurance that
additional and unanticipated costs will not arise, and actual results could
differ from those anticipated.

THIRD-PARTY SYSTEMS

         The Company has relationships with various third parties and the
failure of these third parties to achieve Y2K compliance could have had a
material impact on the Company's business, operating results and financial
condition. The Company made inquiries of its major vendors and suppliers, such
as banks, payroll service and equipment vendors about their Y2K readiness. The
Company has determined that responses were satisfactory for determining the
readiness of these vendors. As of January 31, 2000, the Company experienced no
interruption of services provided by these third parties that resulted from Y2K
non-compliance. Nevertheless, there can be no assurance that unanticipated
processing or supply problems will not occur after the turn of the year.


                                     Page 14

<PAGE>


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


         The Company does not have any specific information concerning the Y2K
readiness of the Company's customers. In the event that the Company's
significant customers did not successfully achieve Y2K compliance in a timely
manner, the Company's business or operations could have been adversely affected.
As of January 31, 2000, the Company is not aware that any of its significant
customers did not successfully achieved Y2K compliance.

WORST CASE SCENARIO AND CONTINGENCY PLANS

         The worst case scenario would have included significant costs and
business interruptions associated with: 1) previously undetected errors in the
Company's products, 2) Y2K litigation, as currently being experienced by other
software vendors, 3) a significant disruption of the Company's internal
information systems and 4) the failure of infrastructure services provided by
government agencies and other third parties (e.g., air travel, banking,
utilities, etc.). Third-party litigation purporting to represent a class of PC
or other product users containing the Company's products, independent of the
merits of such claims, could require a significant amount of management time and
resources to defend the Company. The Company developed comprehensive contingency
plans, covering rapid response to customer and end-user problems as well as
manual or other temporary remedies in the event of failure of the Company's or
third party systems. There can be no assurance that the actions being taken by
the Company, as described throughout this Y2K section, will prevent any Y2K
problems. In addition, there can be no assurance that the contingency plans will
be sufficient to counteract such problems, which could result in a material
adverse effect upon the Company's business, operating results and financial
condition.


EURO

         The Company is addressing the issues raised by the introduction of the
Single European Currency ("Euro") on January 1, 1999 and will monitor this issue
throughout the transition period ending January 1, 2002. The Company's internal
systems that are affected by the initial introduction of the Euro have been
updated without material system modification costs. Further internal systems
changes may be made during the three-year transition phase in preparation for
the ultimate withdrawal of the legacy currencies in July 2002. The costs of
these potential changes are not expected to be material. The Company does not
presently expect that the introduction and use of the Euro will materially
affect the Company's foreign exchange activities, or will result in any material
increase in costs to the Company.
