                                March 31, 1996
                                  (Unaudited)

NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information.
In the opinion of management, the interim financial statements include all
adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for
the interim periods presented. Operating results for the three and nine months
ended March 31, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to
be expected for the year ending December 31, 1996.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been
condensed or omitted.

NOTE 2 - EQUITY FINANCING

Subsequent to the fiscal year end, the Board of Directors designated 1,100
shares of the Company's authorized preferred stock as Series A Preferred Stock.
This stock has a stated value of $10,000 per share, with an 8 percent per annum
conversion premium. The holders of Series A Preferred Stock are not entitled to
receive dividends.

On March 7, 1996, the Company sold 1,030 shares of Series A Preferred Stock
through a private placement at its stated value of $10,000 per share. Total net
proceeds from this private placement were $9,579,000, after reduction for
commissions and issuance costs of $721,000. Each holder of Series A Preferred
Stock will be able to convert their preferred shares into shares of common
stock, in cumulative increments of one-third of preferred shares held, after
April 21, 1996, June 5, 1996, and July 20, 1996, and until February 23, 1999, at
which time each outstanding preferred share will automatically be converted to
common stock. Each share of Series A Preferred Stock is convertible into common
stock based on its stated value of $10,000, plus an 8 percent annualized premium
for the period for which the Series A is held, divided by a conversion price.
This conversion price is the lesser of $6.49 or 85 percent of the average
closing bid price of the Company's common stock for the five trading days
preceding the conversion date. On a pro forma basis, assuming a portion of the
proceeds had been used to repay certain term debt as provided for by the private
placement document, the 1996 loss per common share would remain at $(.10). This
computation presumes the conversion of a portion of the preferred shares and 
repayment of debt as of the beginning of 1996.

          Net Sales.  Net sales for the first quarter were approximately

$1,416,000 an increase of 131.5% from the 1995 first quarter sales of
approximately $612,000.  Fibre Channel product sales equaled approximately
$1,413,000 in the first quarter of 1996, an increase of $1,028,000 over the
approximately $385,000 in the 1995 first quarter, due to the increased
acceptance of Fibre Channel technology and Ancor's product line. Non-Fibre
Channel sales in the 1996 first quarter were $2,600 to the Navy for its non-
Fibre Channel communications network, compared with 1995 first quarter non-Fibre
Channel sales of approximately $227,000 which were mostly of Anderson Cornelius
products. These non-Fibre Channel defense communications and manufacturing data
collection businesses were ceased in 1995, and carry over sales from these
discontinued categories will not be significant in future quarters.

     Gross Profit.  Gross profit in the first quarter of 1996 increased to

$651,265, or 46.0% of sales, from $190,992, or 31.2% of sales, in the first
quarter of 1995.  This increase was a result of overall higher sales levels and
greater amount of higher margin Fibre Channel sales than first quarter 1995.

         
     Operating Expense.  The Company's operating expenses for the first quarter
     ------------------                                                        
of 1996 were approximately $1,516,000, or 107.1% of net sales, compared to
approximately $1,227,000, or 200.6% of net sales, in the first quarter of 1995.
While the percent to sales decreased in the first quarter of 1996, the dollar
increase in operating expense in the first quarter of 1996 was primarily due to
the addition of sales, engineering and management personnel resulting from the
Company's increased focus on the marketing of its Fibre Channel products.      

         
     Net Loss.  Net loss equaled approximately $857,000 in the first quarter of
     ---------                                                                 
the 1996, compared to a net loss of approximately $1,060,000 in the same period
of the prior year.  The decrease in net loss in the first quarter of 1996 was
primarily due to higher sales.  Interest expense in the first quarter of 1996
was lower than 1995 due to lower average borrowing.  Interest income in the
first quarter of 1996 was above 1995 levels due to the higher level of short-
term investments in the 1996 period.      


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES.
- --------------------------------
    
The Company's cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments were
approximately $9,134,000 as of March 31, 1996, compared to approximately
$1,552,000 as of December 31, 1995. Cash flow used in operating activities
totaled approximately $1,697,000, primarily due to the operating loss as well as
increases in both accounts receivable and inventories which, in turn, were the
result of increased sales and increased stocking in preparation for upcoming
sales. Cash flow used in investing activities totaled approximately $8,139,000
as a result of purchasing short-term investments and, to a lesser extent,
equipment purchases. The short-term investments were purchased with the proceeds
from the issuance of convertible preferred stock. During the quarter the Company
completed an off shore private placement of 1,030 shares of convertible
preferred stock with a stated value of $10,000 per share, resulting in net
proceeds to the Company of approximately $9,500,000 after deducting selling
commissions and offering expenses. The proceeds of the offering will be used to
repay $1,500,000 of indebtedness to IBM due in June 1996, to fund sales and
marketing efforts to accelerate penetration of the Company's products into OEM,
system integrator and reseller accounts, to fund research and development
efforts needed to maintain technological leadership and broaden the Company's
product line and for working capital. Management believes its cash, cash
equivalents and short term investments will meet the needs of the company at
least through 1996.
