         NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 1.     Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

       In the  opinion  of  management,  the  unaudited  condensed  consolidated
       balance  sheet at September  30,  1997,  and the  unaudited  consolidated
       statements of income and unaudited  consolidated  condensed statements of
       cash flows for the  interim  periods  ended  September  30, 1997 and 1996
       include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments,
       necessary  for a fair  statement  of  results  for  the  interim  periods
       presented.

       In accordance  with the rules 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.  The  year-end
       balance  sheet data was derived from audited  financial  statements,  but
       does not include  disclosures  required by generally accepted  accounting
       principles.  It is suggested that these  condensed  statements be read in
       conjunction with the Company's most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K for
       the fiscal year ended December 31, 1996.

       Certain prior year amounts have been  reclassified to conform to the 1997
       presentation.

 2.    Accounting Policies

       In  February  1997,  the  Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board  issued
       Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 128, "Earnings per
       Share," which is effective for the Company  beginning  December 15, 1997.
       This  statement   establishes  standards  for  computing  and  presenting
       earnings per share (EPS),  and replaces the  presentation  of primary EPS
       (previously defined in Accounting  Principles Board (APB) No. 15), with a
       presentation  of basic EPS.  The Company  does not expect the adoption of
       this statement will have a material effect on its  consolidated  earnings
       per share.

       In June 1997, the Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board issued SFAS No.
       130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income," which is effective for the Company
       beginning  January 1, 1998.  This  statement  establishes  standards  for
       reporting  and  display  of  comprehensive   income  and  its  components
       (revenues,  expenses,  gains and losses) in a full set of general-purpose
       financial  statements.  The Company  believes that the  information to be
       included  in  deriving  comprehensive  income,   although  not  currently
       presented in a separate  financial  statement,  is disclosed as a part of
       these financial statements.

       In June 1997, the Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board issued SFAS No.
       131,   "Disclosures   about   Segments  of  an  Enterprise   and  Related
       Information"  which is  effective  for the Company  beginning  January 1,
       1998.  This  statement  establishes  standards  for the way  that  public
       business  enterprises  report  information  about  operating  segments in
       annual financial  statements and requires that these  enterprises  report
       selected  information  about  operating  segments  in  interim  financial
       reports issued to shareholders. This Statement supersedes SFAS No. 14 and
       amends SFAS No. 94. The Company is currently evaluating the impact to its
       current financial statements of the implementation of SFAS 131.

On January 1, 1997 the Company  converted  its note with Voice  Control  Systems

Company's  total holdings in VCS amounted to 1,399,715  shares of capital stock.
The shares were classified as available for sale under SFAS No. 115, "Accounting
for Certain  Investments in Debt and Equity  Securities".  The fair value of the
Company's investment in VCS has been determined by reference to the market price
for VCS stock as quoted  on  publicly  traded  exchanges  on the  representative
valuation  dates.  The price per  share of VCS  stock had  declined  to $3.88 at
September 30, 1997 as compared to $7.88 at December 31, 1996.

Unrealized  gains/losses  are reported  net of tax in the equity  section of the
Company's balance sheet per SFAS No. 115.

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

A.       General

The following  discussion and analysis  should be read in  conjunction  with the
Consolidated  Financial Statements,  the related Notes to Consolidated Financial
Statements and Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and
Financial Condition  incorporated by reference in the Company's Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended  December 31, 1996 and the  Unaudited  Consolidated
Financial  Statements  and related Notes to  Consolidated  Financial  Statements
included in Item 1 of Part 1 of this  Quarterly  Report on Form 10-Q.  This Form
10-Q  contains  forward-looking  statements  made  pursuant  to the safe  harbor
provisions   of  the   Private   Securities   Litigation   Reform  Act  of  1995
("Forward-Looking  Statements"),  which  involve  risks and  uncertainties.  The
Company's actual results may differ  significantly from the results discussed in
the  forward-looking  statements.  Factors  that might  cause such a  difference
include, but are not limited to, product demand and market acceptance risks, the
effect of economic  conditions,  the impact of competitive products and pricing,
product  development,  effects of competitive forces and pace of deregulation in
the  telecommunications  industry,  the status of intellectual  property rights,
commercialization   and   technological   difficulties,   capacity   and  supply
constraints  or  difficulties,   consolidating  of  capital  resources,  general
business conditions,  the effect of the Company's accounting policies, and other
risks  detailed in the  Company's  Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 1996.  Such factors may also cause  substantial  volatility  in the
market price of the Company's common stock.

The preparation of financial  statements in conformity  with generally  accepted
accounting   principles  requires  management  to  make  certain  estimates  and
assumptions  that  affect  the  reported  amount  of costs and  liabilities  and
disclosure of  contingent  assets and  liabilities  at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported
period.  Significant  estimates in the Company's  financial  statements  include
allowances for accounts receivable, product returns and net realizable values of
inventories. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

 B.  Results of Operations

Consolidated  revenues  increased  24.0% and 22.6% for the three and nine months
ended September 30, 1997,  respectively,  compared to the equivalent  prior year
periods.  Americas' revenue increased 21.4% to $46.9 million and 15.7% to $125.9
million for the three and nine months  ended  September  30, 1997 as compared to
the prior  periods.  Dialogic's  products  for large Telco and  network  service
applications  continue  to lead  the  growth  experienced  in the  Americas.  In
addition,  Dialogic's DM3 media stream processor and development  platform began
shipment  of  beta  product  during  the  quarter  ended   September  30,  1997.
International revenues continue strong,

<PAGE>

increasing  30.2% and 39.2% for the three and nine month periods ended September
30, 1997.  International revenue growth was particularly strong in the Company's
Asia/Pacific  and  Latin  American  markets  for the  nine  month  period  ended
September 30, 1997. Gross margins  increased for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 1997,  to 62.4%,  as compared to 59.0% and 59.5% for the three and
nine months  ended  September  30, 1997.  The  increase in margins  reflects the
continued  effects  of  Dialogic's  cost  reductions.  The  Company  anticipates
sustaining the current cost reduction level for the balance of 1997, facilitated
via its move of production to a selected  turnkey  manufacturing  subcontractor.
The move is  anticipated to be  substantially  complete by the end of the fourth
quarter 1997. These statements regarding the timing and cost-savings of the move
represent Forward-Looking  Statements.  The actual efficiencies and cost savings
could differ materially from the Company's expectations as a result of a variety
of  factors,  including  the time  required  to complete  such  transition,  the
Company's  relationship  with  the  manufacturer,   the  manufacturing  process,
component availability, or the effect of issues internal to the manufacturer.

Research and development expenses as a percentage of sales represented 19.7% and
20.3% for the three and nine month period ended September 30,1997 as compared to
19.4% and 18.8% for the preceding year. The increase in research and development
expenditures during 1997 in significant part reflects the continued  substantial
investment  of  engineering  resources  related to  Dialogic's  DM3  Mediastream
Resource  Architecture  ("DM3")  announced  in the first  quarter  of 1997.  The
Company  believes  that  investment in research and  development  is critical to
future  growth and  anticipates  investing  at  current  levels  throughout  the
remainder  of  1997  in  an  effort  to  enable  the  Company  to  maintain  its
technological  leadership in the  marketplace.  This estimate  regarding  future
research and development as a percentage of revenue represents a Forward-Looking
Statement;   actual   results  could  differ   materially   from  the  Company's
expectations  as a result of a  variety  of  factors,  including  variations  in
revenue, product market and competitive conditions, the availability of required
resources and the Company's technological needs.

Selling,  general and  administrative  expenses  represented  28.5% and 30.5% of
sales for the three and nine month periods ended  September 30, 1997 as compared
to 27.2% and 27.5% for the  comparable  periods ended  September  30, 1996.  The
increase  in  selling,   general  and   administrative   expenses  is  partially
attributable to the continuing  growth of domestic and  international  sales and
marketing  efforts,   nonrecurring   consulting  charges  and  increasing  costs
associated  with internal  technology.  In addition during the nine months ended
September  30,  1997 the  Company  recognized  amortization  expense of goodwill
associated  with  the  acquisition  of  Dianatel  Corporation  on June  27,1996.
Amortization  will  continue to be  expensed  over the useful life not to exceed
sixty months.

Net  interest  income  for the nine month  period  decreased  $664,000  over the
comparable  period ended  September 30, 1996. The decrease  reflects the loss of
interest  income due to the conversion of the VCS (Voice  Control  Systems Inc.)
note into  capital  stock of VCS in  January  of 1997.  Dialogic  will no longer
receive  interest income benefits for this  transaction as the Company no longer
holds an interest  bearing  obligation  from VCS. Future gains or losses will be
realized on disposition of the VCS equity. During the first quarter of 1996, the
Company realized a pretax gain of $ 9.1 million on the sale of VCS stock.


<PAGE>



Net income for the third quarter of 1997 was $6.4 million or $.38 per share, and
$14.4  million or $.87 per share for the nine month period ended  September  30,
1997. For the comparable  three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1996,
excluding  the  after  tax  effect  of  realized  gains  on  available  for sale
securities in the first quarter of 1996, net income was $4.8 million or $.29 per
share and $14.1 million or $.87 per share,  respectively.  Earnings for the nine
months ended  September  30,1996  including the above  mentioned item were $20.0
million or $1.22 per share. Management believes that this additional measurement
of  earnings  is useful and  meaningful  to an  understanding  of the  operating
performance of the Company.  However, this measurement of earnings should not be
considered by the reader as an  alternative to net income as an indicator of the
Company's  operations  or  performance,  or to cash  flows  as an  indicator  of
liquidity. Weighted average shares outstanding represented 16.5 and 16.4 million
respectively at September 30, 1997 and 1996.

  C.     Financial Condition

As of September 30, 1997 and December 31, 1996,  Dialogic had working capital of
$116 million and $105 million respectively, and a current ratio (i.e., the ratio
of  current  assets  to  current  liabilities)  of  5.1  to  1  and  7.6  to  1,
respectively.  For the nine months ended September 30, 1997, Dialogic's cash and
cash  equivalents   increased  by  $3.3  million  (net  of  unsettled   security
transactions  of $1.5  million).  Cash flows  provided by  operating  activities
amounted  to $21.9  million  including  $14.4  million  from net income and $7.0
million  from  depreciation  and  amortization.  Cash  flow  used  in  investing
activities  was $8.9  million  (net of  investing  excess  cash of $10  million)
primarily for capital  expenditures.  Capital expenditures reflect the expansion
of the Company's  headquarters  and costs associated with Dialogic's move of its
GammaLink and Dianatel  operations  from  Sunnyvale to Santa Clara,  California.
Cash provided by financing activities was $1.8 million,  consisting primarily of
proceeds  from the exercise of stock  options and the issuance of common  stock,
offset by debt repayments. Dialogic believes that its current liquidity, coupled
with cash generated from operations and credit available under its credit lines,
will be sufficient to meet its liquidity and capital  requirements  for at least
the next twelve months. This statement constitutes a Forward-Looking  Statement.
The actual  sufficiency of such capital  resources could differ  materially from
the  Company's  expectations,  depending  among other  things upon the extent to
which  unanticipated  capital  requirements  may arise  and the  extent to which
unanticipated  events  may have a  materially  adverse  effect on the  Company's
profitability.
