              NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (UNAUDITED)


NOTE 1 -- BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of Overland Data,
Inc. and its subsidiaries (the "Company") have been prepared by the Company
without audit pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission for Form 10-Q. 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. In the opinion of management, these statements reflect
all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the
financial position, results of operations and cash flows for all periods
presented. The results of operations for such periods are not necessarily
indicative of the results expected for the full fiscal year. The Company's first
fiscal quarter ends on the Sunday closest to September 30. For ease of
presentation, the Company's first fiscal quarter end is deemed to be September
30. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and
footnotes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
fiscal year ended June 30, 2000 on file with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.

NOTE 2 -- NET INCOME PER SHARE

Basic earnings per share ("EPS") is computed based on the weighted-average
number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS
is computed based on the weighted-average number of shares of common stock
outstanding during the period increased by the weighted-average number of
common stock equivalents outstanding during the period, using the treasury
stock method. Anti-dilutive common stock equivalents excluded from the
computation of diluted earnings per share amounted to 106,500 and 438,000 at
September 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively.

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

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within
the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and
Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Forward-looking
statements usually contain the words "estimate," "anticipate," "expect" or
similar expressions. All forward-looking statements are inherently uncertain as
they are based on various expectations and assumptions concerning future events
and they are subject to numerous known and unknown risks and uncertainties. The
forward-looking statements included herein are based on current expectations and
entail such risks and uncertainties as those set forth below, which could cause
the Company's actual results to differ materially from those projected in the
forward-looking statements. The Company disclaims any obligation to update or
publicly announce revisions to any such statements to reflect future events or
developments. For a more detailed discussion of these and other risks, see our
Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on
September 28, 2000.

OVERVIEW

Overland Data designs, develops, manufactures, markets and supports magnetic
tape data storage drives and automation solutions. Businesses use these
solutions for backup, archival and data interchange functions in
high-availability network computing environments.

The Company's primary products are automated tape libraries, minilibraries,
loaders and tape drives, which combine electro-mechanical robotics, electronic
hardware and firmware developed by the Company with an emphasis on efficiency of
design, functionality and reliability. Its products are based on a number of
different tape technologies including DLTtape, AIT, DLT1, SLR, IBM compatible
3480/3490/3490E, Travan and DAT. The Travan and DAT products were acquired as
part of the acquisition of assets from Tecmar Technologies International, Inc.
and certain of its affiliates (collectively, "Tecmar") in February 2000. The
Company is currently introducing a next-generation Travan-based product, using
its proprietary tape encoding technology that it developed and patented under
the name Variable Rate Randomizer or "VR(2)"-TM-. This new product will be aimed
at capturing a share of the entry-level server tape backup market. Overland also
acquired the Ditto product line through the Tecmar asset purchase. However,
deteriorating sales led to the discontinuance and one-time $1.7 million pre-tax
writeoff of the Ditto line in June 2000, and the consolidation into Overland's
San Diego facility in September 2000 of certain Colorado-based operations
involving former Tecmar personnel and product lines. Overland also distributes
products manufactured by other original equipment manufacturers ("OEMs") and
markets various other products including storage management software supplied by
third parties, spare parts and tape media. The

                                   9
<PAGE>


Company also derives revenue from licensing its proprietary VR(2) tape
encoding technology.

RISK FACTORS

Advanced technology companies like Overland Data are subject to numerous risks
and uncertainties, generally characterized by rapid technological change and
other highly competitive factors. In such an environment, the Company's future
success will depend on its ability to anticipate changes in technology, to
develop new and enhanced products on a timely and cost-effective basis and to
introduce, manufacture and achieve market acceptance of these new and enhanced
products. In particular, the Company's future success will likely depend on the
development of a next generation product to succeed its LibraryXpress product
line. LibraryXpress is facing increasing competition from automated tape library
products, and likely will face competition from other storage devices that may
be developed in the future. Development schedules for high technology products
are inherently subject to uncertainty and there can be no assurance that the
Company will be able to meet its product development schedules, including those
for products based on its new VR(2) tape coding technique (both by the Company
and its licensees), or that development costs will be within budgeted amounts.
If the products or product enhancements that the Company develops are not
deliverable due to developmental problems, quality issues or component shortage
problems, or if such products or product enhancements do not achieve market
acceptance or are unreliable, the Company's business, financial condition and
results of operations may be materially and adversely affected. The introduction
(whether by the Company or its competitors) of new products embodying new
technologies such as new sequential or random access mass storage devices and
the emergence of new industry standards could render existing products obsolete
or not marketable.

The Company's current revenue stream is highly dependent upon the level of
sales to Compaq Computer Corporation ("Compaq"), which comprised 60% of the
Company's revenues in the quarter ended September 30, 2000. Although Compaq
is the primary customer for this product line, Compaq is not required to
purchase minimum quantities and its orders can fluctuate from quarter to
quarter. The Company expects that Compaq will continue to represent a
significant portion of the Company's revenues in future periods.
Consequently, the Company's future operating results would be materially
adversely impacted by the loss of the Compaq account, or the reduction, delay
or cancellation of Compaq orders. This risk is tempered by the fact that in
September 2000, the Company was notified by Compaq that Compaq had selected
Overland to be its supplier of next-generation tape automation products,
which will be jointly developed by Compaq and the Company for the mid-range
marketplace.

A large portion of the Company's products incorporate DLTtape drives
manufactured by Quantum, which is also a competitor of the Company because
Quantum markets its own tape drives and tape automation products. Although
Quantum has licensed Tandberg Data to be a second source manufacturer of DLTtape
drives, Overland has


                                       10
<PAGE>


not qualified Tandberg as its alternative supplier. The Company does not have a
long-term contract with Quantum, which could cease supplying DLTtape drives
directly to the Company. From time to time in the past, the Company has not been
able to obtain as many drives as it has needed from Quantum due to drive
shortages or quality issues. Any prolonged inability to obtain adequate
deliveries could require the Company to pay more for components, parts and other
supplies, seek alternative sources of supply, delay shipment of products and
damage relationships with current and prospective customers. Any such delay or
damage could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial
condition and results of operations. In the past, the Company experienced
problems with the supply of a newly introduced DLTtape drive and such problems
adversely affected the Company's sales and earnings. No assurance can be given
that such problems will not re-occur, or that the Company will not experience
similar or more serious disruptions in supply in the future with current
versions of DLT drives, the new SDLT drive or any future DLT drive version.

Although the Company believes that its proprietary Variable Rate Randomizer
(VR(2)) encoding technology, which it has now licensed to Tandberg Data ASA,
Imation Corp., Seagate Technology, Inc. and Storage Technology, Inc., will
ultimately prove to be of significant value, the success of VR(2) depends on the
success of the licensee's tape drives, which ultimately incorporate the VR(2)
technology. Success of VR(2) cannot be assured because of the potential
difficulty of incorporating it into the electronics of new tape technology
platforms, the possible introduction of competing techniques to enhance tape
drive performance, and the uncertain market acceptance of VR(2) enhanced tape
drives.

The risks and uncertainties noted above, along with others that could materially
and adversely affect the Company's business, are set forth more fully in the
"Risk Factors," "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations," and other sections of the Company's Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2000 on file with the Securities
and Exchange Commission.

FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2000 AND 1999

NET REVENUES. Net revenues of $37.7 million in the first quarter of fiscal
year 2001 were $14.9 million or 65.2% above net revenues of $22.8 million in
the comparable quarter of the prior fiscal year. This revenue growth is
attributable primarily to improved sales of the Company's automated library
products, including increasing sales of the new AIT-based LibraryPro, which
was introduced in the third quarter of the prior fiscal year. Sales of
libraries increased by 92.5% from $14.4 million in the first quarter of
fiscal year 2000 to $27.8 million in the first quarter of fiscal year 2001,
primarily due to strong shipments to Compaq, the Company's largest customer.
Sales of library products to Compaq of $22.4 million grew 186% from $7.8
million during the same quarter of the prior fiscal year. Sales of the
Company's lower-end loader products decreased 5.9% from $2.6 million in the
first quarter of fiscal year 2000 to $2.4 million in the first quarter of
fiscal year 2001. Sales of mature 36-track products declined by 11.0% from
$2.5 million in the first quarter of fiscal year 2000 to $2.2 million in the
first quarter of fiscal year 2001. Sales of stand-alone drives of $1.3
million decreased 6.6% from $1.4 million in the same quarter of the prior
fiscal year. Sales of Travan, Ditto and DAT products, which the Company began
selling after the February 2000 acquisition of Tecmar assets, amounted to
$1.2 million during the first quarter of fiscal year 2001.

A summary of the sales mix by product for the periods presented in the statement
of operations follows:

GROSS PROFIT. The Company's gross profit for the first quarter of fiscal year
2001 was $10.6 million, up 69.0% from $6.2 million in the first quarter of
fiscal year 2000. As a percentage of net revenues, the gross margin of 28.0% in
the first quarter of fiscal


                                       13
<PAGE>


year 2001 was slightly higher than the gross margin of 27.3% in the comparable
quarter of the prior fiscal year, due to greater royalty/services revenues.

SALES AND MARKETING EXPENSE. Sales and marketing expense amounted to $4.1
million or 11.0% of net revenues in the first quarter of fiscal year 2001,
compared to $3.1 million or 13.7% of net revenues in the first quarter of fiscal
year 2000. The increased expenses in the current quarter are due primarily to
higher sales personnel costs and promotional spending.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSE. Research and development expense amounted to
$2.3 million or 6.1% of net revenues in the first quarter of fiscal year 2001,
compared to $1.6 million or 7.0% of net revenues in the first quarter of fiscal
year 2000. The higher expenses in the current quarter primarily reflect an
increased level of new product development efforts and the addition of the
former Tecmar Colorado-based engineering team.

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE. General and administrative expense
amounted to $1.9 million or 5.1% of net revenues in the first quarter of
fiscal year 2001, compared to $1.6 million or 7.1% of net revenues in the
first quarter of fiscal year 2000. The increased expenses in the first
quarter of fiscal year 2001 primarily reflect personnel additions, as well as
severance and other expenses relating to Tecmar and the consolidation of
certain of its Colorado operations into Overland's San Diego facility.

OTHER INCOME & EXPENSE, NET. In the first quarter of fiscal year 2001, net other
expense amounted to $23,000, comprised primarily of interest income of $102,000
less foreign currency losses of $120,000 related to the Company's UK operations.
Net other income in the first quarter of fiscal year 2000 was $171,000,
consisting primarily of interest income of $175,000.

INCOME TAXES. The Company's effective tax rate in the first quarter of fiscal
year 2001 was 39.5%, compared to 39.8% in the first quarter of fiscal year 2000.
The effective tax rate for all of fiscal year 2000 was 39.5% and is expected to
remain unchanged for fiscal year 2001.

NET INCOME. Net income amounted to $1.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal
year 2001, compared to $39,000 in the first quarter of fiscal year 2000. Diluted
and basic net income per share for the first quarter of fiscal year 2001 was
$0.12 and $0.13, respectively, compared to breakeven per share for the same
measurements in the comparable quarter of the prior fiscal year.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES. The Company's cash reserves fell to $6.9
million at September 30, 2000, compared to $15.8 million at June 30, 2000.
During the first quarter of fiscal year 2001, the Company used $8.9 million in
cash. Primary uses of cash included a decrease of $6.9 million in accounts
payable and other accrued liabilities, an increase in inventories of $2.0
million and an increase in accounts receivable of $1.3 million. Cash was
provided primarily by $1.3 million in earnings before depreciation and
amortization. The Company's working capital amounted to $45.1 million at
September 30, 2000, and it had no outstanding funded debt at such date. In
addition, the Company has not used its $5.0 million line of credit. The Company
believes that these resources will be sufficient to fund its operations and to
provide for its growth into the foreseeable future.

ITEM 3.  --  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

As a multinational corporation, the Company is exposed to changes in foreign
exchange rates. These exposures may change over time and could have a material
adverse effect on the Company's operating results. The Company currently does
not utilize any derivative instruments to manage the risk of exchange rate
fluctuations.

The Company is exposed to changes in market interest rates, which affect
interest income earned on the Company's cash equivalents and short-term
investments. The Company does not enter into derivative transactions relating to
its cash, cash equivalents or short-term investments. At September 30, 2000, the
Company had an investment portfolio of money market funds and certificates of
deposit of $4.0 million. If market interest rates were to decrease immediately
and uniformly by 10% from the levels as of September 30, 2000, the decline in
the Company's interest income would not be material.
