                         PART I.  FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Item 1.  Financial Statements



                           NETWORK GENERAL CORPORATION

               CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                                   (Unaudited)

     The Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements of Network General
Corporation (the "Company") have been prepared by the Company, without audit,
pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Certain information and footnote 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
Company believes the disclosures included in the Condensed Consolidated Interim
Financial Statements, when read in conjunction with the Company's consolidated
financial statements as of March 31, 1995 and the notes thereto included in the
Company's 1995 Annual Report, are adequate to make the information presented not
misleading.

     The Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements reflect, in the
opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring
adjustments) necessary to summarize fairly the financial position, results of
operations and cash flows for such periods.

     The results of operations for the three month period ended June 30, 1995
are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the
entire fiscal year ending March 31, 1996.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)
June 30, 1995

A. FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION
     Certain amounts included in the condensed consolidated interim statements
of income and the condensed consolidated interim balance sheets have been
reclassified from amounts previously reported. Such reclassifications are not
considered to be significant.

B. CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS, MARKETABLE DEBT SECURITIES, AND LONG-TERM
   INVESTMENTS
     For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, the Company
considers certificates of deposits, commercial paper and money market funds with
an original maturity date of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Marketable securities consist of municipal notes and U.S. Treasury notes with
average maturities of less than one year.  Long-term investments that will be
held to maturity are carried at cost.

STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING STANDARDS NO. 115.  The Company adopted the
provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 115,
"Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities" in the first
quarter of fiscal year 1995, and the affect on its financial statements was not
significant.  In accordance with SFAS No. 115, the Company has classified all
marketable debt securities and long-term debt investments as Held-to-Maturity,
and has accounted for these investments at amortized cost. Accordingly, no
adjustment for unrealized holding gains or losses have been reflected in the
Company's financial statements.

At June 30, 1995 the amortized cost basis, aggregate fair value and gross
unrealized holding gains by major security type were as follows:

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

REVENUES
Revenues for the first fiscal quarter ended June 30, 1995 were $39,740,000, an
increase of 32% over revenues of $30,050,000 reported for the quarter ended June
30, 1994.  Both domestic and international revenues increased in the first
quarter of fiscal year 1996 when compared to the first quarter of fiscal year
1995.  Domestic revenues increased 32% to $31,769,000 for the quarter ended June
30, 1995, compared to $24,071,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 1994.
International revenues increased by 33% for the first quarter of fiscal 1996
compared to the first fiscal quarter of 1995, growing from $5,979,000 to
$7,971,000, lead by strong sales of tool products in Asia which were offset by a
decrease in sales in Europe.  Although the Company is in the process of
revisiting its distribution strategy for Europe to include a combination of
third party distributors and direct sales, continued weakness in European sales
is expected to persist until such new strategy is fully implemented.
International revenues represented 20% of total revenues for each of the
quarters ended June 30, 1995 and 1994.

The following table presents the Company's revenues for each of its product
lines in absolute dollars and as a percentage of revenues for each of the

</TABLE>

The Company's tool products revenues increased 29% to $20,424,000 in the quarter
ended June 30, 1995, as compared to $15,865,000 for the quarter ended June 30,
1994. Sniffer Network Analyzer products accounted for substantially all of the
Company's tool products revenues in each of the periods shown above and are
responsible for the increase in tool products revenues from the first quarter of
fiscal year 1995 to the first quarter of fiscal year 1996.  Tool products
revenues represented approximately 51% of Network General's revenues for the
first fiscal quarter ended June 30, 1995, as compared to 53% for the same period
in fiscal 1995. Tool products revenues declined as a percentage of total
revenues due to faster growth in system products revenues during this period
relative to tool and service revenues.

Revenues for the first fiscal quarter ended June 30, 1995 included $11,406,000
in system products revenues, a 43% increase over the $7,978,000 in system
products revenues reported for the quarter ended June 30, 1994.  The Distributed
Sniffer System (DSS) analysis products accounted for a majority of the Company's
system products
------------------------------

(1)  Tool Products include revenues from the Sniffer-Registered Trademark-
Network Analyzer products,the PCI line of Wide Area Network (WAN) Analysis
products, the Watchdog-TM- Network Monitor products, product rentals and
roylaties from the license agreements.

(2)  System Products consist of revenues from the Distributed Sniffer System
-Registered Trademark- analysis products and from the Distributed Sniffer
System Monitoring products (formerly ProTools Network Control Series).

(3)  Service revenues include first-year warranty revenue as defined by SOP 91-1
and revenues from software support and maintenance contracts, training and
consulting services.

                                        7

revenues in each of the periods shown above.  System product revenues
represented approximately 29% of Network General's revenues for the first
quarter of fiscal 1996, as compared to 26% for the same quarter in fiscal 1995.

Service revenues include revenues from software support and maintenance
contracts, training, and consulting services, as well as those revenues from the
first year warranty period of customer support which had been deferred in
accordance with Statement of Position ("SOP") 91-1, "Software Revenue
Recognition."  For the quarter ended June 30, 1995, service revenues, increased
27% to $7,910,000 from $6,207,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 1994.  The
increase in service revenues was due to increases in support and maintenance
contracts, training, and first year warranty support revenues.  As a percent of
total revenues, service revenues decreased from 21% in the first quarter of
fiscal year 1995 to 20% in the first quarter of fiscal year 1996.

GROSS MARGIN
Cost of revenues consists of manufacturing costs, cost of services and warranty
expenses. Gross profit as a percent of revenues was 77% for the quarter ended
June 30, 1995 and 78% for the quarter ended June 30, 1994.  Gross profit and
gross profit percent may vary as a result of a number of factors, including the
mix between Tool Products, System Products and Services, third party computer
platforms, which have lower margins than the Company's own products, and the mix
of international and domestic sales.

SALES AND MARKETING EXPENSES
Sales and marketing expenses were $13,596,000 in the first quarter of fiscal
year 1996, an increase of 23% compared to $11,040,000 of sales and marketing
expenses in the first quarter of fiscal 1995.  The increase was primarily due to
increased domestic sales expense for increased staffing, commission expense and
promotional activity needed to support increased sales.  As a percent of
revenues, sales and marketing expenses were 34% and 37% for the quarters ended
June 30, 1995 and 1994, respectively.  Sales and marketing expenses have
decreased as a percent of total revenues as a  result of faster growth in
revenues than in the related selling expenses.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES
Research and development expenses were $5,791,000 in the first quarter of fiscal
year 1996, as compared to $4,523,000 in the first quarter of fiscal year 1995.
Increased expenses were due to increased staffing to support development
efforts. The Company believes that continued commitment to research and
development is required to remain competitive. Research and development expenses
were 15% of total revenues for each of the three month periods ended June 30,
1995 and 1994.

Research and development expenses are accounted for in accordance with Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 86, under which the Company is required to
capitalize software development costs after technological feasibility is
established. Capitalizable software development costs incurred to date have not
been significant and, thus, the Company has charged all software development
costs to research and development expenses in the consolidated statements of
income.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
General and administrative expenses were $2,631,000  for the quarter ended June
30, 1995 and were $2,160,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 1994.  Increases to
general and administrative expenses were primarily due to increases in staffing
to support expanding operations.  General and administrative expenses were 7% of
total revenues for each of the three month periods ended June 30, 1995 and 1994.

INTEREST INCOME, NET
Interest income, net increased 60% to $1,746,000  in the first quarter of
fiscalyear 1996 as compared to $1,093,000  in the first quarter of fiscal year
1995.  The increase in interest income earned in the first quarter of fiscal
year 1996 as compared to the first quarter of fiscal year 1995 reflects a
combination of higher balances of cash, cash equivalents and marketable
securities available for investment, as well as higher returns on investments
during the first quarter of fiscal year 1996.

PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES

                                        8

<PAGE>

The provision for income taxes was 30.5% of pretax income for the quarter ended
June 30, 1995, as compared to 31.5% for the quarter ended June 30, 1994.  The
effective tax rate for the first quarter of fiscal year 1996 decreased from the
first quarter of fiscal year 1995 primarily due to increased utilization of
ProTools operating losses, and to a lesser extent, a lower effective state tax
rate between years.

EARNINGS PER SHARE
Earnings per share for the quarter ended June 30, 1995, were $0.32, an increase
of 52% compared to the $0.21 per share earned in the quarter ended June 30,
1994.  The primary cause of the increase in earnings per share was the increase
in revenues. The number of common share equivalents increased 4% from 21,937,000
in the first quarter of fiscal 1995 to 22,707,000 in the first quarter of fiscal
1996.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities increased $10,893,000 from
March 31, 1995 to June 30, 1995.  The primary source of these funds was cash
provided from operating activities, partially offset by purchases of property
and equipment.  The increase in cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities
in the first quarter of fiscal 1996 was also partially offset by $6,122,000 used
to repurchase common stock.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $12,597,000 for the three months
ended June 30, 1995, and $9,736,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1994.
The primary source of these funds was net income for both periods shown.  The
net increase in the first quarter of fiscal 1996 also reflects reductions in
deferred tax assets and increases to deferred revenue, partially offset by
increases to accounts receivable.  Cash provided by operating activities in the
first quarter of fiscal 1995 reflects increases to deferred revenue, and
accounts payable and accrued liabilities, partially offset by increases in
prepaid expenses.

Net cash used in investing activities was $15,510,000 in the quarter ended June
30, 1995, as compared to cash provided by investing activities of $2,207,000 in
the quarter ended June 30, 1994.  Net cash used in investing activities in the
first quarter of fiscal 1996 reflects increased balances in marketable
securities and purchases of property and equipment, partially offset by
decreased balances in long-term investments.  Cash provided by investing
activities in the first quarter of fiscal 1995 includes decreases in marketable
securities and long-term investments, partially offset by purchases of property
and equipment.

The Company used $5,191,000 in the quarter ended June 30, 1995 relating to
financing activities.  Repurchase of common stock totaling approximately
$6,122,000 was partially offset by proceeds from the issuance of common stock.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $607,000 in the quarter ended June
30, 1994.

As of June 30, 1995, the Company's principal sources of liquidity included cash,
cash investments, marketable securities and long-term investments totaling
$149,267,000, including $45,460,000 of long-term investments.  Included in the
Company's marketable securities as of June 30, 1995 are approximately $2,000,000
of Orange County, California Tax and Revenue Anticipation Notes.  The principal
and accrued interest was paid in full on July 28, 1995.

The Company currently has no outstanding bank borrowings and has no established
lines of credit. The Company believes that cash generated from operations,
together with existing cash and investment balances will be sufficient to
satisfy operating cash and capital expenditure requirements through at least the
next twelve months.

BUSINESS RISKS
The Company's future operating results may be affected by certain factors and
trends of its market which are beyond its control.  The market for Network
General's products is characterized by rapidly changing technology and evolving
industry standards.  Included in such changes is the development of asynchronous
transfer mode ("ATM") for the transmission of data along local area and wide
area networks, as well as other switching technologies.  Network General
believes that its future success will depend, in part, on its ability to
continue to develop, introduce and sell new products. The Company is committed
to continued investments in research and development; however, there is no
assurance that these efforts will result in the development, timely release or
market acceptance of new products.

In addition, the Company's results may be adversely affected by the actions of
existing or future competitors including established and emerging computer,
communications, intelligent network wiring, network management and test
instrument companies.  There can be no assurance that Network General will be
able to compete successfully in the future with existing or future competitors.

Network General does not carry a significant level of backlog.  The majority of
the Company's revenues in each quarter are a result of orders booked in that
quarter.  Expense levels are based on expectations of future revenues.  Expense
levels would be disproportionately high in the event of a decrease in near-term
demand for the Company's products and would therefore have an adverse affect on
the Company's operating results.

For certain critical components of its products, Network General relies on a
limited number of suppliers.  In addition, some of the Company's products are
designed around specific computer platforms which are only available from
certain manufacturers.  As a result of product transitions by these computer
platform manufacturers, the Company has found it increasingly necessary to
purchase and inventory computer platforms for resale to its customers.  Any
significant shortage of computer platforms or other critical components for the
Company's products could lead to cancellations or delays of purchases of the
Company's products which would materially and adversely affect the Company's
operating results.  If purchases of computer platforms or other components
exceed demand, the Company would incur expenses for disposing of the excess
inventory, which would also adversely affect the Company's operating results.

Network General products may be considered by certain customers to be capital
purchases.  An adverse change in general economic conditions could cause certain
of the Company's customers to reduce their capital spending, which may adversely
affect the Company's operating results.
