              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (UNAUDITED)



1.   INTERIM FINANCIAL DATA

     The interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and
     nine month periods ended September 30, 1996 and 1995 for NetManage, Inc.
     (the "Company") have been prepared on the same basis as the year end
     consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of management,
     include all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments)
     necessary to present fairly the financial information set forth therein, in
     accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The Company
     believes the results of operations for the interim periods are subject to
     fluctuation and may not be an indicator of future financial performance.

2.   CONSOLIDATION

     The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company
     and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and
     transactions have been eliminated. The Company's 50 percent investment in
     an unconsolidated affiliate, NetVision, Ltd. ("NetVision"), is accounted
     for by the equity method.

3.   ACQUISITIONS

     On July 3, 1996, the Company closed the acquisition of all of the
     outstanding stock of Maximum Information, Inc. ("MaxInfo"), effective as of
     July 29, 1996, in exchange for approximately 590,000 shares of the
     Company's common stock. The Company also assumed MaxInfo's outstanding
     options, which were converted into options to purchase approximately
     129,000 shares of the Company's common stock. This transaction was
     accounted for as a pooling of interests during the third quarter of 1996.
     The operations of MaxInfo are not material to the Company's consolidated
     results of operations and financial position and, therefore, the historical
     financial statements have not been restated to reflect the acquisition
     retroactively. Accordingly, the operations of MaxInfo from the effective
     date forward have been recorded in the Company's consolidated financial
     statements.

4.   CAPITALIZED SOFTWARE

     Software development costs are accounted for in accordance with Statement
     of Financial Accounting Standards No. 86, "Accounting for the Costs of
     Computer Software to be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed," under which
     the Company is required to capitalize software development costs after
     technological feasibility is established, which the Company defines as the
     development of a working model and further defines as the development of a
     beta version of the software. Prior to 1996, software development costs
     that were eligible for capitalization had not been significant and the
     Company charged all software development costs to research and development
     expense. During the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1996,
     the Company capitalized approximately $0.1 million and $4.1 million,
     respectively, of purchased software. Amortization of purchased software is
     calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated remaining economic
     life of the underlying products (from two to five years). Amortization
     expense is included in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements
     of Operations in Cost of Revenues. During the three and nine month periods
     ended September 30, 1996 amortization of purchased software amounted to
     approximately $0.5 million and $1.0 million, respectively.

5.   NET INCOME PER SHARE

     Net income per share data has been computed using the weighted average
     number of shares of common stock and common equivalent shares from stock
     options outstanding (when dilutive using the treasury stock method). Fully
     diluted net income per share is substantially the same as primary net
     income per share.

6.   ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

     Effective January 1, 1996 the Company adopted the disclosure only
     provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123,
     "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation". The effect on the Company's
     financial position and results of operations, upon adoption, was not
     significant.

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

This discussion contains, in addition to historical information, forward-looking
statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Such forward-looking statements
include statements regarding expected changes in revenues and expected increases
in operating expenses and capital spending. The Company's actual results could
differ significantly from the results discussed in the forward-looking
statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include,
among others, those discussed below as well as those discussed in the Company's
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1995. The following
discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial
statements and notes thereto.

OVERVIEW

NetManage(R), Inc. (the "Company") develops, markets and supports an integrated
set of application, server and development tool software for the Microsoft
Windows, Windows 95, Windows NT and Mac OS platforms. The Company's
standards-based products provide TCP/IP and SNA host access, UNIX access
including NFS and X, Active X-based development, and desktop and Web management.
The Company's products are sold and serviced worldwide by the Company's direct
sales force, international subsidiaries and authorized channel partners. Since
the Company's inception, revenues from the Chameleon(TM) family of products have
represented substantially all of the Company's revenues, and the Company expects
that revenues from these products will continue to account for a substantial
portion of the Company's revenues for the foreseeable future.

On July 3, 1996, the Company closed the acquisition of all of the outstanding
stock of Maximum Information, Inc. ("MaxInfo"), effective as of July 29, 1996,
in exchange for approximately 590,000 shares of the Company's common stock. The
Company also assumed MaxInfo's outstanding options, which were converted into
options to purchase approximately 129,000 shares of the Company's common stock.
This transaction was accounted for as a pooling of interests during the third
quarter of 1996. The operations of MaxInfo are not material to the Company's
consolidated results of operations and financial position and, therefore, the
historical financial statements have not been restated to reflect the
acquisition retroactively. Accordingly, the operations of MaxInfo from the
effective date forward have been recorded in the Company's consolidated
financial statements.

On November 29, 1995, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of AGE
Logic, Inc. ("AGE") in exchange for shares of the Company's common stock. The
transaction was accounted for as a pooling of interests and accordingly, the
Company's consolidated financial statements for the three and nine month periods
ended September 30, 1995 have been restated to combine the results of AGE and
the Company. The Company also acquired all of the outstanding stock of Syzygy
Communications, Inc. ("Syzygy"), in exchange for shares of the Company's common
stock, on October 16, 1995. This transaction was also accounted for as a pooling
of interests, however, the operations of Syzygy were not material to the
Company's consolidated results of operations and financial position and,
therefore, the historical financial statements have not been restated to reflect
the acquisition retroactively. Accordingly, the operations of Syzygy from the
date of acquisition forward have been recorded in the Company's consolidated
financial statements.

The Company regularly evaluates product and technology acquisition opportunities
and anticipates that it may make additional acquisitions in the future. Product
and technology acquisitions entail numerous risks, including difficulties in the
assimilation of acquired operations and products, diversion of management's
attention away from day-to-day matters and potential loss of key employees from
acquired companies. No assurance can be given as to the ability of the Company
to integrate successfully the operations and personnel acquired to date, and if
applicable, in the future, and the failure of the Company to do so could have a
material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations.

The Company has experienced and expects to experience in future periods
significant fluctuations in operating results that may be caused by many
factors, including among others: demand for the Company's products; introduction
or enhancements of products by the Company or its competitors; technological
changes in computer networking; market acceptance of new products; customer
order deferrals in anticipation of new products; the size and timing of
individual orders; mix of distribution channels through which the Company's
products are sold; mix of international and domestic revenues; seasonality of
revenues; quality control of products; changes in the 

                                       8
<PAGE>   9

Company's operating expenses; personnel changes; foreign currency exchange rates
and general economic conditions. As a result, the Company believes that
period-to-period comparisons of its results of operations are not necessarily
meaningful and should not be relied upon as indications of future performance.

The market for the Company's products is intensely competitive and characterized
by rapidly changing technology, evolving industry standards, changes in
customers' needs and frequent new product introductions. To maintain or improve
its position in this industry, the Company must continue to enhance its current
products and to develop, introduce successfully and market new products on a
timely and cost-effective basis. Any failure by the Company to anticipate or
respond adequately to changes in technology and customer preferences, or any
significant delays in product development or introduction, would have a material
adverse effect on the Company's results of operations. The failure to develop on
a timely basis these or other enhancements incorporating new functionality could
cause customers to delay purchase of the Company's current products and thereby
adversely affect the Company's results of operations. There can be no assurance
that the Company will be successful in developing new products or enhancing its
existing products on a timely basis, or that such new products or product
enhancements will achieve market acceptance.

Many of the Company's competitors have substantially greater financial,
technical, sales, marketing and other resources, as well as greater name
recognition and a larger customer base, than the Company. The market for the
Company's products is characterized by significant price competition and the
Company anticipates that it will face increasing pricing pressures from its
current and new competitors in the future. Moreover, given that there are low
barriers to entry into the software market and that the market is rapidly
evolving and subject to rapid technological change, the Company believes that
competition will persist and intensify in the future. Accordingly, there can be
no assurance that the Company will be able to provide products that compare
favorably with the products of the Company's competitors or that competitive
pressures will not require the Company to reduce its prices. Any material
reduction in the price of the Company's products would require the Company to
increase unit sales in order to maintain revenues at pre-existing levels. There
can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in doing so.

Because the Company generally ships software products within a short period
after receipt of an order, the Company typically does not have a material
backlog of unfilled orders, and revenues in any quarter are substantially
dependent on orders booked in that quarter. The Company's expense levels are
based in part on its expectations as to future revenues and to a large extent
are fixed. Therefore, the Company may be unable to adjust spending in a timely
manner to compensate for any unexpected revenue shortfall. Accordingly, any
significant shortfall of demand in relation to the Company's expectations or any
material delay of customer orders would have an almost immediate adverse impact
on the Company's operating results and on the Company's ability to maintain
profitability. Fluctuations in operating results may also result in volatility
in the price of the Company's common stock.

During the twelve month period from September 30, 1995 to September 30, 1996,
the Company experienced rapid growth in the number of employees and the
geographic area of its customer base and operations. These increases have
resulted in substantial demands on the Company's management resources. The
Company's future operating results will continue to be dependent in part on its
ongoing ability to continue to implement and improve its operating and financial
controls and to expand, train and manage its management and employee base. There
can be no assurance that the Company will be able to do so successfully.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Company experienced a significant decline in its net revenues and net income
during the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1996 as compared to
the same periods of 1995. The decline in net revenues primarily reflects an
overall industry trend characterized by increased competition, pricing
pressures, and general confusion in the IntraNet marketplace resulting from the
rapidly changing technology and product introductions. Operating expenses for
the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1996 included increased
costs related to the Company's acquisition activity, particularly headcount
related costs, and increased costs related to the Company's investment in
expanding its direct corporate sales and support functions in the U.S., neither
of which has yet produced the expected results in terms of increasing net
revenues. Operating expense levels are based, in part, on the Company's
expectations as to future revenues and to a large extent are fixed. Expense
growth, coupled with the decline in net revenues, resulted in an adverse impact
on the Company's net income during the three and nine month periods ended
September 30, 1996. Operating expenses are expected to increase in absolute
dollars in the future; these expenses may also increase in the future as a
percentage of net revenues depending on fluctuations in total revenues and
overall Company growth. While the Company is adjusting its operations to address
these issues, there can be no assurance that revenues or net income will
stabilize or increase in the future.

Net revenues

Substantially all of the Company's net revenues have been derived from software
license fees and, to a lesser extent, service revenues, which have been
primarily attributable to maintenance agreements associated with such licenses.

License fees decreased both in absolute dollars and as a percentage of net
revenues during both the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1996
as compared to the same relative periods of 1995. The decline in license fees in
absolute dollars was primarily attributable to increased competition; heightened
pricing pressures; and the general confusion within the IntraNet market
resulting from the rapidly changing technology and product introductions, the
delayed release of Windows NT 4.0, and the slow adoption of Windows 95 in
corporate accounts, all of which contributed to delayed buying decisions,
particularly by corporate users. These factors may lead to lower unit volumes as
well as lower average prices for the foreseeable future. While the Company has
been adjusting its operations to address these issues, there can be no assurance
that revenues will stabilize or increase in the future. As a percentage of total
net revenues, the decline in license fees during the three month period ended
September 30, 1996 as compared to the same three month period of 1995 reflects
the significant decline in the total net revenue base as service revenues, in
absolute dollars, were constant. During the nine month period ended September
30, 1996 as compared to the nine month period ended September 30, 1995, however,
the decline in license revenues as a percentage of net revenues reflects the
nearly 20% absolute dollar increase in the service revenue component of total
net revenues, as discussed below.

The increase in service revenues in absolute dollars for the nine months ended
September 30, 1996 and as a percentage of total net revenues for both the three
and nine months ended September 30, 1996 is due primarily to the Company's
increased focus on marketing its customer support services domestically and
internationally. Despite these increased efforts, service revenues in absolute
dollars for the three months ended September 30, 1996 as compared to the same
three month period in the prior year was relatively constant, which is
consistent with the aforementioned decline in license fee revenues during this
period.

During mid-1995, the Company expanded its worldwide operations with new sales
offices internationally in Europe and Japan. As a result, international
revenues, as a percentage of total net revenues, increased from 30% for the
three month period ended September 30, 1995 to 40% for the three month period
ended September 30, 1996. For the nine month period ended September 30, 1995 as
compared to the nine month period ended September 30, 1996, international
revenues increased from 30% to 35% of net revenues, respectively. A shift in
international marketing efforts during 1996 towards indirect channels, including
increasing the number of international distributors and resellers, contributed
to the year over year increase. Additionally, the introduction of an increased
number of localized versions of the Company's products in 1996 also contributed
to the increased acceptance of the Company's products in the international
marketplace.

As part of its strategy to develop multiple distribution channels, the Company
expects to increase its use of resellers, particularly value added and system
integrators, in addition to distributors and original equipment manufacturers.
The Company expects that indirect sales will grow as a percentage of both
domestic and total revenues and that any material increase in the Company's
indirect sales as a percentage of revenues will adversely affect the Company's
average selling prices and gross margins due to the lower unit prices that are
typically charged when selling through indirect channels. There can be no
assurance that the Company will be able to attract resellers and distributors
who will be able to market the Company's products effectively and will be
qualified to provide timely and cost-effective customer support and service. The
Company ships products to resellers and distributors on a purchase-order basis,
and many of the Company's resellers and distributors carry competing product
lines. Therefore, there can be no assurance that any reseller or distributor
will continue to represent the Company's products, and the inability to recruit
or retain effective resellers or distributors could adversely affect the
Company's results of operations.

Software license fees are generally recognized as revenue upon shipment if there
are no, or insignificant, post-delivery obligations. Allowances for returns and
doubtful accounts are provided based on historical rates of returns and
write-offs, which have not been material to date. Certain of the Company's sales
to distributors are under agreements providing rights of return and price
protection on unsold merchandise. Accordingly, the Company defers recognition of
such sales until the merchandise is sold by the distributor.

                                       11
<PAGE>   12

The Company provides ongoing maintenance and support to its customers, generally
under annual service agreements. Maintenance and support is comprised of
software updates for existing products and telephone support. Service revenues
are recognized on a pro-rata basis over the term of such agreements. The Company
expects that service revenues will continue to increase as a percentage of total
net revenues.

Periodically the Company has provided training and consulting services to
selected customers. Such revenue is recognized as the related services are
performed and has not been material to date. The Company does not expect that
revenues generated from such services will become materially significant in the
future.

The Company had one customer which accounted for approximately 10% of net
revenues during the three months ended September 30, 1996. This percentage may
fluctuate in future periods, however, and there is no assurance that it will not
decline significantly. No customer accounted for 10% or more of net revenues
during the three months ended September 30, 1995.

Gross margin

Cost of revenues primarily includes royalties paid to third parties for licensed
software incorporated into the Company's products, costs associated with product
packaging, documentation and software duplication, and amortization of purchased
software. Cost of service revenues through September 30, 1996 has not been
material and is not reported separately. Gross margin as a percentage of net
revenues was relatively constant between both the three month periods and nine
month periods ended September 30, 1996 and 1995, and in absolute dollars
fluctuated in proportion to the changes in the revenue base.

Gross margin as a percentage of net revenues may fluctuate in the future due to
increased price competition, the mix of distribution channels used by the
Company, the mix of products sold, the mix of license fee revenue versus service
revenues, and the mix of international versus domestic revenues. The Company
typically realizes higher gross margins on direct sales than on sales through
indirect channels and higher gross margins on license fee revenues than on
service revenues.

Research and development

Research and development ("R&D") expenses consist primarily of salaries and
benefits, occupancy and travel expenses, as well as fees paid to outside
consultants. The increase during the three and nine month periods ended
September 30, 1996 as compared to the same periods of the prior year, both in
absolute dollars and as a percentage of net revenues, primarily reflects the
hiring of additional product development engineers in the United States and
Israel. The decline in the revenue base, particularly during the quarter ended
September 30, 1996, contributed to the increase in R&D as a percentage of net
revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1996 as compared to
the same periods in 1995.

The Company believes that a significant investment in R&D is required to remain
competitive in the software industry. The Company expects that R&D expenses as a
percentage of net revenues will fluctuate depending on future revenue growth,
acquisitions and licensing of technology, and expects that R&D expenses will
increase in absolute dollars in the future.

Software development costs are accounted for in accordance with Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 86, "Accounting for the Costs of Computer
Software to be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed," under which the Company is
required to capitalize software development costs after technological
feasibility is established, which the Company defines as the development of a
working model and further defines as the development of a beta version of the
software. Prior to 1996, software development costs that were eligible for
capitalization had not been significant and the Company charged all software
development costs to research and development expense. During the three and nine
month periods ended September 30, 1996, the Company capitalized approximately
$0.1 million and $4.1 million, respectively, of purchased software. Amortization
of purchased software is calculated on a straight-line basis over the estimated
remaining economic life of the underlying products (from two to five years).
Amortization expense is included in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated
Statements of Operations in Cost of Revenues. During the three and nine month
periods ended September 30, 1996 amortization of purchased software amounted to
approximately $0.5 million and $1.0 million, respectively.

                                       12
<PAGE>   13

Sales and marketing

Sales and marketing ("S&M") expenses consist primarily of salaries and
commissions of sales and marketing personnel, advertising and promotion
expenses, and customer service and support costs. The increase in S&M expenses
during the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1996 as compared to
the same periods of 1995, both in absolute dollars and as a percentage of net
revenues, primarily reflects increased salaries and commissions due to increased
staffing, the growth of domestic field sales and support and customer service
functions, increased marketing activities, including trade show participation,
advertising and promotions, and the opening of foreign sales offices in Europe
and Japan, as well as domestic sales offices during mid-1995.

The Company believes that S&M expenses will continue to increase in absolute
dollars as the Company continues to expand its sales and support staff
worldwide, including the opening of one or more additional international offices
and the expansion of the Company's existing domestic and international sales
offices, and continues to place increased focus on the marketing of its products
through indirect sales channels. These activities may also result in an increase
in S&M expenses as a percentage of net revenues in the future.

General and administrative

The increase in general and administrative expenses ("G&A") in absolute dollars
for the nine months ended September 30, 1996, and as a percentage of net
revenues for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 1996 as
compared to the same three and nine months periods of 1995, is primarily a
result of increased staffing and associated expenses necessary to support the
Company's growth. The increase in G&A expenses as a percentage of net revenues
was also attributable to the decreased revenue base during the third quarter of
1996 as compared to the same quarter of 1995.

The Company believes that G&A expenses will continue to increase in absolute
dollars as the Company continues to expand its staffing to support the Company's
growth which may result in an increase in G&A expenses as a percentage of net
revenues in the future.

Interest income and other, net

Interest income and other, net includes interest income earned on the Company's
cash and investments as well as foreign exchange gains and losses. This income
decreased in absolute dollars during the third quarter of 1996 as compared to
the third quarter of 1995 due largely to a decline in the strength of the U.S.
dollar relative to the Israeli Shekel. The increase in interest income and
other, net, in absolute dollars during the nine months ended September 30, 1996
and as a percentage of net revenues during the three and nine months ended
September 30, 1996 as compared to the same periods of 1995 was primarily due to
an increase in the aggregate amount of cash and cash equivalents, short term
investments and long term investments from $105.2 million at September 30, 1995
to $113.6 million at September 30, 1996 resulting in an increase in the related
interest income. The increase as a percentage of net revenues reflects the
aforementioned decrease in the Company's revenue base.

Equity in losses of unconsolidated affiliate

In July 1995, NetManage, Ltd., one of the Company's wholly-owned subsidiaries,
agreed to an investment in one of its wholly-owned subsidiaries, NetVision, Ltd.
("NetVision") by Elron Electronics, Ltd. ("Elron"). The Company retains an
ownership in NetVision of 50%. Prior to the investment by Elron, the accounts of
NetVision were included in the Company's consolidated financial statements.
Subsequent to the investment, the Company did not have a majority voting
interest in NetVision. Accordingly, NetVision's accounts are no longer
consolidated and the Company's remaining investment in NetVision is accounted
for by the equity method. This investment is included in Other Assets in the
accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company has adjusted its
investment to reflect additional equity investments in NetVision which are
offset in part by the Company's share of NetVision's losses.

Provision for income taxes

The Company's effective tax rate is unchanged for both the three and nine month
periods ended September 30, 1996 as compared to the same periods of 1995.

</TABLE>


Since the Company's inception, growth has been financed primarily through cash
provided by operations and sales of capital stock. The Company's primary
financing activities to date consist of its initial and secondary stock
offerings and preferred stock issuances, which aggregated net proceeds to the
Company of approximately $72.5 million. The Company does not have a bank line of
credit or an equipment lease facility.

The Company's cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and long-term
investments increased from $109.3 million at December 31, 1995 to $113.6 million
at September 30, 1996. This increase was due primarily to cash generated from
operating activities.

The Company's principal investing activities to date have been the purchase of
short-term and long-term investments and purchases of property and equipment.
Net of proceeds from maturities, the Company invested $7.8 million in short-term
and long-term investments during the nine month period ended September 30, 1996.
Expenditures for purchases of property and equipment were $4.2 million during
the first nine months of 1996 and were primarily purchases of computer and
office equipment to support the Company's growth. Although the Company does not
have any specific commitments with regard to future capital expenditures, it is
anticipated that such spending will continue to increase. The Company's
principal commitment as of September 30, 1996 consists of leases on its
facilities.

Net cash provided by financing activities during the nine months ended September
30, 1996 reflects proceeds from the issuance of common stock under the Company's
stock option plan.

At September 30, 1996, the Company had working capital of $52.5 million. The
Company believes that its current cash balances and cash flows from current
operations will be sufficient to meet the Company's working capital and capital
expenditure requirements for the foreseeable future.
