1.       BASIS OF PRESENTATION

         The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
         prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
         for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form

3.       INVESTMENT IN WIRELESS DOMAIN CORPORATION (FORMERLY TELEPATH
         CORPORATION)

         On June 28, 1996, the Company entered into an agreement and acquired a
         33% interest in Wireless Domain Incorporated (WD) in exchange for $1
         million in cash and common stock of the Company valued at
         approximately $2.2 million.  During the year ended September 30, 1997,
         the Company increased its equity portion in WD to 50% by purchasing an
         additional 17% of WD in exchange for $0.5 million in cash and 150,000
         shares of common stock of the Company valued at approximately $0.7
         million.

         On November 10, 1997, the Company acquired the remaining 50% of WD.
         Under the terms of the merger, the Company issued 500,000 shares of
         common stock to the shareholders of WD and relinquished control of the
         500,000 shares of common stock held by WD.  This acquisition was
         accounted for using the purchase method of accounting.  The excess of
         consideration paid over the fair value of net assets purchased of $4.7
         million was recorded as goodwill, which is being amortized over ten
         years.  Prior to the November 10, 1997 transaction, the Company had
         accounted for its investment in WD using the equity method.

         The following unaudited pro forma results of operations assumes the
         acquisition of Wireless Domain occurred as of October 1, 1996, after
         giving effect to certain adjustments including amortization of
         goodwill and equity income recorded for the periods in which the
         Company owned less than 100% of WD.

</TABLE>

         Revenues would not change as a result of the acquisition as WD's
         revenues related entirely to amounts billed to the Company.  The pro
         forma financial information does not purport to be indicative of the
         results of operations that would have occurred had the transaction
         taken place at the beginning of the periods indicated or of future
         results of operations.

4.       CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURES

         On December 11, 1995, the Company issued $18 million in convertible
         debentures (the "Debentures") at 4% per annum, which matured on
         December 11, 1997.  The Debentures were issued under the provisions of
         Regulation S as promulgated under the United States Securities Act of
         1933, as amended.  Holders of the Debentures were entitled, at their
         option any time after issuance until December 10, 1997, to convert
         principal and interest accrued thereon, in whole or in part, into
         shares of common stock using defined conversion formulas based on
         NASDAQ closing bids for the Company's common stock.  The Company was
         entitled, at its option any time commencing one year after issuance
         (and under certain circumstances prior to that date) through maturity,
         to require the holders to convert the principal and accrued interest
         into shares of common stock of the Company using defined conversion
         formulas based on NASDAQ closing bids for the Company's common stock.
         As of November 30, 1996, the entire issuance of convertible debentures
         and all interest accrued thereon had been converted into approximately
         7,033,000 shares of common stock.

5.       REDEEMABLE PREFERRED STOCK

         During fiscal 1997, the Company issued 20,000 shares (10,000 shares on
         April 16, 1997 and 10,000 shares on June 6, 1997) of Series A
         Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Preferred Stock") for $18.8 million
         which is net of issuance cost of $1.2 million.  The Preferred Stock
         automatically converts to Common Stock on April 16, 1999 or October
         16, 1999, depending on the conversion price, and includes the
         equivalent of a 5% annual stock dividend. Holders of the Preferred
         Stock are entitled, at their option, subject to trading volume and
         other restrictions, to convert Preferred Stock into shares of Common
         Stock using defined conversion formulas based on the NASDAQ closing
         bid prices for the Company's Common Stock.  In addition, the holders
         have the option to redeem the Preferred Stock upon the occurrence of :
         (i) a consolidation or merger with another company; (ii) sale or
         transfer of substantially all assets; or (iii) 50% change in
         ownership.  The redemption price upon holder redemption is the greater
         of $1,250 per share and the cash equivalent of the defined conversion
         formula on the date of redemption.  The Company is entitled to require
         the holders to convert the Preferred Stock and accrued dividends into
         shares of common stock of the Company using a defined conversion
         formula based upon the NASDAQ closing bid prices for the Company's
         common stock.  In addition, the Company has the right to redeem the
         Preferred Stock after April 15, 1999 for $1,200 per share plus 120% of
         the accrued dividends.  Holders of the Preferred Stock are not
         entitled to vote on matters submitted for vote to the stockholders of
         the Company.

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
                                 MARCH 31, 1998

         The Preferred Stock reflects a beneficial conversion feature that
         allows holders to convert the security to common stock of the Company
         at a discount.  The amount of the discount is determined using NASDAQ
         closing bid prices for the Company's common stock.  During fiscal year
         1997, the Company recorded $2.2 million of amortization of preferred
         stock beneficial conversion discount.  The offset entry to
         amortization of preferred stock beneficial conversion discount
         increased redeemable preferred stock by $2.2 million.  This amount
         will accrete to the Company's common stock and additional paid in
         capital accounts as shares of redeemable preferred stock are converted
         into shares of common stock of the Company.  As of March 31, 1998,
         1,200 shares of Preferred Stock had been converted into 409,498 shares
         of the Company's common stock.

6.       EARNINGS PER SHARE

         On October 1, 1997, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards
         Board SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share."  SFAS No.  128 replaced the
         previously reported primary and fully diluted earnings per share with
         basic and diluted earnings per share.  Unlike primary earnings per
         share, basic earnings per share excludes any dilutive effects of
         options, warrants and convertible securities.  Diluted earnings per
         share is very similar to the previously reported fully diluted
         earnings per share.  When necessary, previously reported earnings per
         share amounts have been restated to conform to SFAS No. 128.

7.       CONTINGENCIES

         The Company is involved in legal proceedings that arise in the
         ordinary course of business.  While any litigation contains an element
         of uncertainty, based upon discussion with the Company's counsel,
         management believes that the outcome of such proceedings will not have
         a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial
         position and results of operations.

         On March 2, 1998, the Company reached settlement in its patent
         infringement case against ORA Electronics, Inc. (formerly Alliance
         Research Corporation) and received the following from ORA Electronics,
         Inc.: $500,000 in cash, a $1,000,000 promissory note, 300,000 shares
         of ORA Electronics, Inc. common stock ("ORA stock") with a fair market
         value of $450,000, and the right to receive additional shares of ORA
         stock to ensure the fair market value received in stock is equivalent
         to $1,500,000 on February 1, 2000.  The Company recorded royalty and
         royalty settlement revenue of $1,176,201 during the three months ended
         March 31, 1998 which is the amount equivalent to the fair market value
         of cash and assets received on March 2, 1998, net of legal fees.  The
         Company deferred recognition of an additional $700,000 of royalty and
         royalty settlement revenue (net of additional legal fees) during the
         three months ended March 31, 1998 which is the amount equivalent to
         the value of additional shares of ORA stock or the appreciation of ORA
         stock currently held which would be necessary to increase the value of
         ORA stock to an aggregate of $1,500,000 on February 1, 2000.

8.       RECLASSIFICATION

         Certain amounts in the March 31, 1997 financial statements have been
         reclassified to conform to the March 31, 1998 presentation.

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

OVERVIEW

The Company is in the fixed wireless telecommunications industry.  The Company
designs, develops, manufactures and markets products based on its proprietary
interface technologies, which provide the capability to bridge wireline
telecommunications customer premises equipment ("CPE") with cellular-type
transceivers for use in wireless communication networks, whether cellular,
personal communications services ("PCS"), or satellite-based.  Applications of
the Company's technology include fixed wireless telecommunications as a primary
service where wireline systems are unavailable, unreliable or uneconomical, as
well as wireless backup systems for wireline telephone systems and wireless
alarm signaling ("WAS").  The Company's principal product lines - PHONECELL(R),
a line of fixed wireless terminals ("FWTs"); and TELGUARD(R), a line of WAS
products - allow CPE designed for traditional wireline networks to send and
receive voice, data and facsimile signals over wireless networks.

Although the Company has licensed its patented technology to a limited number
of other companies and has received royalty revenues in return, these revenues
have not prior to fiscal year 1998, represented a significant portion of the
Company's gross revenues, and so have been reported as net sales on the
Company's consolidated statements of operations.  On March 2, 1998, the Company
received $1.2 million in royalties pursuant to a settlement entered into with
ORA Electronics, Inc., a company that had been using the Company's patented
technology without a license.

The Company is investing in new product development for both analog and digital
fixed wireless terminals.  As with any emerging market, it is difficult to
predict the timing of the market demand.  If anticipated sales in any quarter
do not occur as expected, expenditure and inventory levels could be
disproportionately high, and the Company's operating results for that quarter,
and potentially for future quarters, could be adversely affected.  Certain
factors that could significantly impact expected results are described in
"Cautionary Statements Pursuant to the Securities Litigation Reform Act" which
is attached as exhibit 99 to the Form 10-K filed for the period ended September
30, 1997.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

SECOND QUARTER FISCAL 1998 COMPARED TO SECOND QUARTER FISCAL 1997

Net Product Sales.  Net product sales of $9.8 million for the three months
ended March 31, 1998 decreased from $11.4 million for the three months ended
March 31, 1997.  Net product sales, excluding net product sales to a large
Motorola wireless local loop (WLL) project in Hungary during second quarter of
fiscal 1997, increased 80% from $5.4 million for the three months ended March
31, 1997 to $9.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 1998.  FWT net
product sales, excluding net product sales to Hungary during second quarter of
fiscal 1997, increased 168% from $2.8 million for the three months ended March
31, 1997 to $7.6 million for the three months ended March  31, 1998.  This
increase primarily resulted from shipments to WLL projects in Guinea, West
Africa and the Philippines.

Royalty and Royalty Settlement Revenue. Royalty and royalty settlement revenue
increased to $1.3 million during the second quarter of fiscal 1998, compared to
the second quarter of fiscal 1997, due primarily to the royalty settlement of
$1.2 million with ORA Electronics, Inc. (see financial statement footnote 7
above).  No royalty or royalty settlement revenue was recorded in the second
quarter of fiscal 1997.

Gross Profit.  Second quarter fiscal 1998 gross profit increased by $0.5
million compared to the same period of fiscal 1997.  The increase is due to the
increase in royalty and royalty settlement revenue, which is partially offset
by lower overall total revenue during the second quarter fiscal 1998.





                                       11
<PAGE>   12
Engineering and Development Expenses.  Engineering and development expenses of
$2.3 million during the second quarter of fiscal 1998, increased approximately
64% or $0.9 million over the second quarter of fiscal 1997.  The increase
relates to the Company's increased focus on developing additional analog and
digital FWTs, including its acquisition of Wireless Domain Incorporated, which
increased the Company's engineering staff by 30 engineers.

Selling and Marketing Expenses.  Selling and marketing expenses for the second
quarter of fiscal 1998 increased 82% or $0.8 million compared to the same
quarter of fiscal 1997.  The increase was primarily a result of the Company's
effort to market its new products and increase its sales force to support
worldwide sales coverage.

General and Administrative Expenses (G&A).  G&A for the second quarter of
fiscal 1998 decreased 7% compared to the same quarter of fiscal 1997.  The
decrease is primarily attributable to the reduction or elimination of
expenditures, primarily through personnel reductions, as well as leveraging
resources.

Provision for doubtful accounts. The provision for doubtful accounts expense
decreased from the same quarter of fiscal 1997 due to improvement in the
Company's collections experience.

Amorization. Amortization expense increased from the same quarter of fiscal
1997 due to the amortization of goodwill recorded in connection with the
acquisition of Wireless Domain Incorporated on November 10, 1997.

Other Income. Other income during the fiscal quarter of fiscal 1998 increased
by $0.2 million compared to the same quarter of fiscal 1997.  The increase is
primarily due to higher interest income due to higher cash balances during the
first quarter of fiscal 1998 compared to the same quarter of fiscal 1997.

Net Income (loss).  The Company recorded a net loss of ($1.8) million or
($0.06) per share for the first quarter in fiscal 1998 compared to a loss of
($0.7) million or ($0.02) per share in the same quarter of fiscal 1997.

Net income (loss) applicable to common shares.  After giving effect to the
cumulative preferred stock dividend of $0.2 million for the second quarter of
fiscal 1998, net loss applicable to common shares of ($2.0) million or ($0.06)
per share compares to a loss of ($0.7) million or ($0.02) per share in the same
quarter of fiscal 1997.


FIRST HALF FISCAL 1998 COMPARED TO FIRST HALF FISCAL 1997

Net Product Sales.  Net product sales of $22.4 million for the six months ended
March 31, 1998 decreased from $29.8 million for the six months ended March 31,
1997.  Net product sales, excluding net product sales to a large Motorola
wireless local loop (WLL) project in Hungary during the first half of fiscal
1997, increased 84% from $12.2 million for the six months ended March 31, 1997
to $22.4 million for the six months ended March 31, 1998. FWT net product
sales, excluding net product sales to Hungary during the first half of fiscal
1997, increased 129% from $7.7 million for the six months ended March 31, 1997
to $17.8 million for the six months ended March 31, 1998.  This increase
primarily resulted from shipments to WLL projects in Guinea, West Africa and
the Philippines.

Royalty and Royalty Settlement Revenue. Royalty and royalty settlement revenue
increased from $0.2 million to $1.4 million during the first half of fiscal
1998, compared to the first half of fiscal 1997, due primarily to the royalty
settlement of $1.2 million with ORA Electronics, Inc. (see financial statement
footnote 7 above).

Gross Profit.  First half of fiscal 1998 gross profit decreased by $1.5 million
compared to the same period of fiscal 1997.  The decrease was primarily due to
lower sales during the six months ended March 31, 1998, which were partially
offset by the increase in royalty and royalty settlement revenue during the
first half of fiscal 1998.

Engineering and Development Expenses.  Engineering and development expenses of
$4.3 million during the first six months of fiscal 1998, increased
approximately 59% or $1.6 million over the first six months of fiscal 1997.





                                       12
<PAGE>   13
The increase relates to the Company's increased focus on developing additional
analog and digital FWTs, including its acquisition of Wireless Domain
Incorporated, which increased the Company's engineering staff by 30 engineers.

Selling and Marketing Expenses.  Selling and marketing expenses for the first
half of fiscal 1998 increased 67% or $1.4 million compared to the period of
fiscal 1997.  The increase was primarily a result of the Company's efforts to
market its new products and increase its sales force to support worldwide sales
coverage.

General and Administrative Expenses (G&A).  G&A for the first half of fiscal
1998 decreased 20% compared to the same half of fiscal 1997.  The decrease is
primarily attributable to the reduction or elimination of expenditures,
primarily through personnel reductions, as well as leveraging resources.

Provision for doubtful accounts. The provision for doubtful accounts expense
decreased from the same half of fiscal 1997 due to improvement in the
Company's collections experience.

Amorization. Amortization expense increased from the same half of fiscal 1997
due to the amortization of goodwill recorded in connection with the acquisition
of Wireless Domain Incorporated on November 10, 1997.

Other Income. Other income during the first half of fiscal 1998 increased by
$0.3 million compared to the same period of fiscal 1997.  The increase is
primarily due to higher interest income due to higher cash balances during the
first half of fiscal 1998 compared to the same half of fiscal 1997.

Net Income (loss).  The Company recorded a net loss of ($3.9) million or
($0.12) per share for the first half in fiscal 1998 compared to a profit of $9
thousand or less than one cent per share in the same half of fiscal 1997.

Net income (loss) applicable to common shares.  After giving effect to the
cumulative preferred stock dividend of $0.5 million for the first half of
fiscal 1998, net loss applicable to common shares of ($4.3) million or ($0.13)
per share compares to a profit of $9 thousand or less than one cent per share
in the same half of fiscal 1997.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

At March 31, 1998, the Company had $21.5 million in cash and cash equivalents
with a working capital surplus of $34.9 million.

From an operating standpoint, the Company used $5.8 million of cash during the
six months ended March 31, 1998 compared to the cash neutral position for the
same fiscal period last year.  The use of cash primarily relates to an increase
in inventory for new products and the net loss for the six months ended March
31, 1998.

Cash used for capital spending was approximately $1.3 million during the six
months ended March 31, 1998 compared to $1.0 million during the same period
last fiscal year.  The increase during the first half of fiscal 1998 primarily
relates to upgrades to the Company's information systems and purchases of test
equipment for new products.

Financing activities provided $0.2 million during the first six months of
fiscal 1998, compared to $0.3 million during the same period in fiscal 1997.
The $0.2 million provided during the six months ended March 31, 1998 resulted
from the issuance of common stock in connection with stock option exercises in
accordance with the Company's Amended and Restated Stock Option Plan.

On April 23, 1997, the Company entered into a Loan and Security Agreement with
Sanwa Business Credit Corporation that, among other things, provides a credit
facility with a loan limit of $20.0 million (the "Loan").  Borrowings under the
Loan are subject to borrowing base requirements and other restrictions.  Under
the Loan and Security Agreement, the Company is required to comply with certain
affirmative and negative covenants.  The





                                       13
<PAGE>   14
Loan matures on April 23, 2000.  As of March 31, 1998, the Company's  borrowing
capacity under the Loan provisions was $11.2 million although there have been
no borrowings and none are contemplated in the near term.

During fiscal 1997, the Company issued 20,000 shares (10,000 shares on April
16, 1997 and 10,000 shares on June 6, 1997) of Series A Convertible Preferred
Stock (the "Preferred Stock") for $18.8 million, which is net of issuance cost
of $1.2 million.  The Preferred Stock automatically converts to Common Stock on
April 16, 1999, or October 16, 1999, depending on the conversion price and
includes the equivalent of a 5% annual stock dividend. Holders of the Preferred
Stock are entitled, at their option, subject to trading volume and other
restrictions, to convert Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock using
defined conversion formulas based on the NASDAQ closing bid prices for the
Company's Common Stock.  In addition, the holders have the option to redeem the
Preferred Stock upon the occurrence of a (i) consolidation or merger with
another company; (ii) sale or transfer of substantially all assets; or (iii)
50% change in ownership.  The redemption price upon holder redemption is the
greater of $1,250 per share and the cash equivalent of the defined conversion
formula on the date of redemption.  The Company is entitled to require the
holders to convert the Preferred Stock and accrued dividends into shares of
common stock of the Company using a defined conversion formula based upon the
NASDAQ closing bid prices for the Company's common stock.  In addition, the
Company has the right to redeem the Preferred Stock after April 15, 1999 for
$1,200 per share plus 120% of the accrued dividends. Holders of the Preferred
Stock are not entitled to vote on matters submitted for vote to the
stockholders of the Company.   As of March 31, 1998, 1,200 shares of preferred
stock have been converted into 409,498 shares of the Company's common stock.

The Company will use much of the capital raised in fiscal 1997 to fund new
product development.  Beyond its specific research and product development
needs, expected future uses of cash include working capital requirements,
marketing and sales support programs in anticipation of future revenues and
certain capital expenditures.  Based upon its current operating plan, the
Company believes its existing capital resources, including the credit facility
and proceeds from the issuance of Preferred Stock, should enable it to maintain
its current and planned operations.  Cash requirements may vary and are
difficult to predict given the nature of the developing markets targeted by the
Company.  The amount of royalty income from the Company's licensees is
unpredictable, but could have an impact on the Company's actual cash flow.

The Company requires letters of credit or qualification for export credit
insurance underwritten by third party credit insurance companies or the
Export-Import Bank of the United States on a substantial portion of its
international sales orders. Also, to mitigate the effects of currency
fluctuations on the Company's results of operations, the Company endeavors to
conduct all of its international transactions in U.S. dollars.  To date, the
Company's sales have not been adversely affected by currency fluctuations;
however, as the Company's international operations grow, foreign exchange or
the inflation of a foreign currency may pose greater risks for the Company, and
the Company may be required to develop and implement additional strategies to
manage these risks.

YEAR 2000 ISSUE

Recently, national attention has focused on the potential problems and
associated costs resulting from computer programs that have been written using
two digits rather than four to define the applicable year.  These programs
treat all years as occurring between 1900 and 1999 and do not self-correct to
reflect the upcoming change in the century.  If not corrected, computer
applications could fail or create erroneous results by or at the year 2000.

Management believes that only minor modifications will be required to its
internal software so that its computer systems will function properly with
respect to dates in the year 2000 and thereafter.  The cost of such
modifications is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the
Company's results of operations and will be funded through operating cash
flows.  The Company has determined that it has no exposure to contingencies
related to the year 2000 issue for products it has sold.

The Company has also initiated a formal review of its significant suppliers and
large customers to determine the extent to which the Company would be
vulnerable if those third parties' fail to remedy year 2000 issues.  The
Company anticipates completing this review prior to December 31, 1998.





                                       14
<PAGE>   15
The cost of the Company's efforts and the date on which the Company believes it
will complete its year 2000 compliance efforts reflect management's current
estimates based upon available information.  Management will continue to
monitor this issue, particularly the possible impact of third-party year 2000
compliance on the Company's operations, and will modify its estimates if
warranted.

OUTLOOK

The statements contained in this outlook are based on current expectations.
These statements are forward looking, and actual results may differ materially.

The Company expects fiscal 1998 sales levels to be about the same as in fiscal
1997.  Sales to the Hungary project accounted for over $21.2 million, or
approximately 44%, of total sales for fiscal 1997.  Although sales to the
Hungary project are not expected to be significant in fiscal 1998, the Company
anticipates that new WLL business will replace the Hungary project business.

Comparison of the first half of fiscal 1998, with the first half of fiscal 1997
does not fully reflect the performance trend for fiscal 1998.  Sales for the
first half of fiscal year 1997 were unusually high as a result of sales to the
Hungary project of $17.6 million, representing 59% of first half of fiscal 1997
total revenue.  The absence of sales to the Hungary project in the first half
of fiscal 1998 was mostly offset by increased sales to new projects.  During
the six months ended March 31, 1998, the Company announced that it received
approximately $11 million of new WLL business in Guinea, West Africa and the
Philippines.  The Company expects demand for FWTs to continue to grow and is
cultivating other revenue opportunities that it believes will contribute to
future revenue growth.

To capitalize on the anticipated growth in the market for FWTs, the Company
accelerated its product development plan for fiscal 1998.  On November 10,
1997, the Company added 30 additional engineers to its staff when it acquired
the remaining 50% of Wireless Domain Incorporated.  The Company's strategy
continues to be to introduce fixed wireless terminals that will address the
radio standards serving 85 percent of all cellular subscribers by the year
2000.  The Company plans to continue to devote substantial resources to product
development.

Based upon observed trends, the Company believes that the market for FWTs is
undergoing substantial growth.  The Company is seeking to capitalize on the
anticipated growth by devoting resources across the Company to meet the
anticipated needs of the market.

Statements contained in this filing, other than historical statements, consist
of forward-looking information.  The Company's actual results may vary
considerably from those discussed in the "Outlook" section and elsewhere in
this filing as a result of various risks and uncertainties.  For example, there
are a number of uncertainties as to the degree and duration of the revenue
momentum, which could impact the Company's ability to be profitable as lower
sales may likely result in lower margins.  In addition, product development
expenditures, which are expected to benefit future periods, are likely to have
a negative impact on near term earnings.  Other risks and uncertainties, which
are discussed in Exhibit 99 to the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
period ended September 30, 1997, include the risk that technological change
could render the Company's technology obsolete, the risk of litigation, the
Company's ability to develop new products, the Company's dependence on
contractors and Motorola, the Company's ability to maintain quality control,
the risk of doing business in developing markets, the Company's dependence on
research and development, the uncertainty of additional funding, the potential
for redemption of preferred stock, the effects of control by existing
shareholders, the effect of changes in management, intense industry
competition, and uncertainty in the development of wireless service generally.
