</TABLE> 

NOTE 3 - EQUITY FINANCING

In March 1997, the Board of Directors designated 900 shares of the Company's
authorized preferred stock as Series B Preferred Stock. This stock has a stated
value and liquidation preference of $10,000 per share, with a five percent per
annum conversion premium. The holders of Series B Preferred Stock are not
entitled to vote or to receive dividends.

On March 24, 1997, the Company sold 855 shares of Series B Preferred Stock
through a private placement at its stated value of $10,000 per share. Total net
proceeds from this private placement were $7,951,558, after reduction for
commissions and issuance costs of $598,442. In conjunction with the transaction,
the placement agent was granted a five year warrant to purchase 105,556 shares
of common stock at $4.86 per share. In addition, the investors have a right to
receive warrants to purchase common stock equal to 20% of their original
investment not converted to common stock as of March 24, 1998, divided by the
conversion price then in effect, with an exercise price equal to 115% of the
average closing bid price for five days ending on the one year anniversary date.
The Series B Preferred Stock outstanding on March 24, 1999, automatically
converts into common stock at the applicable conversion rate.

NOTE 4 - EARNINGS PER SHARE

Net loss per common share is computed based upon the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding during the year. Common equivalent shares, consisting
of options, warrants and convertible preferred stock for all periods, were not
included in the computation as their effect was antidilutive. However, the eight
and five percent premium earned by the preferred shareholders in 1997 was added
to the net loss for computation purposes.

                                       6
<PAGE>
 

The FASB has issued Statement No. 128, "Earnings Per Share," which supersedes
APB Opinion No. 15. Statement No. 128 requires the presentation of earnings per
share by all entities that have common stock or potential common stock, such as
options, warrants and convertible securities, outstanding that trade in a public
market. Those entities that have only common stock outstanding are required to
present basic earnings per-share amounts. All other entities are required to
present basic and diluted per-share amounts. Diluted per-share amounts assume
the conversion, exercise or issuance of all potential common stock instruments
unless the effect is to reduce a loss or increase the income per common share
from continuing operations. All entities required to present per-share amounts
must initially apply Statement No. 128 for annual and interim periods ending
after December 15, 1997. Earlier application is not permitted.

The adoption of Statement No. 128 would have had no effect on reported earnings
(loss) per share.

NOTE 5 - CONTINGENCY

The Company along with Stephen O'Hara, Lee B. Lewis and Dale Showers, has been
named as a defendant in a securities action captioned Richard Radman and Sol
Rosenthal v. Ancor Communications, Inc., et al, filed in United States District
Court for the District of Minnesota on July 24, 1997. The lawsuit, a putative
class action, alleges that the Company violated sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 when it allegedly made misleading public
disclosures relating to the Company's contract with Sequent Computer Systems,
Inc. and the Company's quarterly revenues and seeks compensatory losses in an
undetermined amount. The Company believes that the lawsuit is without merit and
intends to defend it vigorously. The Company is unable to determine if there
will be a material adverse outcome at this time.

     Net Sales  Net sales for the second quarter 1997 increased by approximately
$5,800 (0.3%) from 1996 to approximately $2,102,000. Net sales for the six
months ended June 30, 1997, increased by approximately $393,000 (11%) from the
same period 1996 to approximately $3,905,000. This increase in net sales is due
primarily to a significant increase in net sales to an international customer as
a result of increased market acceptance of the Company's Fibre Channel products
overseas, offset by a decrease in sales domestically. Whereas the Fibre Channel
adoption cycle has taken longer in the U.S., international net sales in the
second quarter increased 68% from approximately $1,122,000 in 1996 to
approximately $1,880,000 in 1997, representing 89% of net sales to all customers
for the quarter. International net sales in the first six months increased 197%
from approximately $1,140,000 in 1996 to approximately $3,381,000 in 1997,
representing 87% of net sales for the first half.

                                       8

The second quarter 1997 net sales increase includes the effects of an allowance
against sales of $332,000, recorded during the second quarter of 1997, for
product returns and customer stock rotation. The first six months 1997 net sales
increase includes the effects of an allowance against sales of $700,000 for
product returns and customer stock rotation. The Company does not generally
provide customers with a right of return at the date of sale; however, in
response to significant pressures from the marketplace, the Company has allowed
product returns in the past from certain customers as a marketing concession to
stimulate a positive impression of the Company and its products in the
marketplace. In addition, resellers have incorrectly anticipated the
configuration needed by end user equipment purchasers and have requested that
purchased but unused product be exchanged for the product needed to meet the end
user requirements. Further, certain end users have requested that they purchase
their initial products from the Company, instead of the reseller, which has
resulted in credits issued to the resellers in the second half of 1996 and first
quarter of 1997. As a result of all of these factors, the Company's net assets
at June 30, 1997, include a return reserve of $195,000 ($390,000 gross sales
less the estimated value of product to be returned).

     Gross Profit.  Gross profit in the second quarter of 1997 decreased to
approximately $859,000, or 40.9% of sales, from approximately $954,000, or 45.5%
of sales, in the second quarter of 1996.  Gross profit in the first six months
of 1997 increased to approximately $1,568,000, or 40.2% of sales, from
approximately $1,605,000, or 45.7% of sales, for the same period of 1996  The
decreases in gross profit percentage are attributable to the sale of a greater
percentage of adapters, which carry lower gross margins, in the second quarter
and first six months of 1997 versus the same periods in the prior year.  For
both the second quarter and first six months of 1997 net sales included the sale
of approximately three times the number of adapters as were sold in same periods
in 1996.

     Operating Expense.  The Company's operating expenses for the second quarter
of 1997 were approximately $2,787,000, or 132.6% of net sales, compared to
approximately $1,865,000, or 89.0% of net sales, in the second quarter of 1996.
Operating expenses for the first six months of 1997 were approximately
$5,313,000, or 136.1% of net sales, compared to approximately $3,381,000, or
96.3% of net sales, in the same period of 1996.  The increase in operating
expenses is due to an increase in the number of employees, increased development
costs for the network products, increased promotion costs and increased selling
expenses as sales volume increases.  The number of employees at June 30, 1997
was 19% greater than at June 30, 1996, resulting in personnel and related
expenses increasing $398,000 in the second quarter 1997 as compared with the
second quarter 1996, and $816,000 in the first six months of 1997 as compared
with the same period 1996.  Additionally, the Company's ongoing aggressive
commitment to front end spending for marketing and sales tactics resulted in
advertising and marketing expenses increasing $297,000 in the second quarter
1997 as compared with the second quarter 1996, and $556,000 in the first six
months of 1997 as compared with the same period 1996.  Further, primarily due to
amortization of capitalized software development costs, depreciation and
amortization expense increased $154,000 in the second quarter 1997 as compared
with the second quarter 1996, and $307,000 in the first six months of 1997 as
compared with the same period 1996.

     Other Income (Expense).  Because the Company repaid a $1.5 million note
payable in June 1996, interest expense decreased to approximately $2,600 in the
second quarter 1997 from approximately $33,000 in the

                                       9

same period 1996. Similarly, interest expense decreased in the first six months
of 1997 to approximately $5,200 from approximately $64,000 in the first six
months of 1996. Interest income of approximately $96,000 and approximately
$95,000 in the second quarters of 1997 and 1996, respectively, and approximately
$117,000 and approximately $134,000 in the first six month periods of 1997 and
1996, respectively, was earned from the investment of the net proceeds of
preferred stock offerings occurring in March of each year.

     Net Loss  The Company's net loss increased to approximately $1,835,000, or
$0.18 per share in second quarter 1997, compared to a net loss of $849,000, or
$0.10 per share in second quarter 1996.  Net loss for the first six months of
1997 increased to approximately $3,632,000, or $0.36 per share, compared to a
net loss of $1,706,000, or $0.20 per share in the same period 1996.  The greater
net loss is primarily attributable to greater operating expenses.


Liquidity and Capital Resources.

The Company's cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments were
approximately $5,541,000 as of June 30, 1997, compared to approximately
$1,511,000 as of December 31, 1996. Cash flows used in operating activities
totaled approximately $3,100,000, due to the operating loss, net payments to
vendors and inventory purchases in anticipation of future sales, as offset by
net collections of accounts receivable. Cash flows used in investing activities
totaled approximately $4,934,000 as a result of the purchase of short-term
investments and equipment, which included upgrades of engineering desktop
systems and continued internal construction of testing and tooling equipment for
the next generation of Fibre Channel switching products. In March 1997, the
Company completed a private placement transaction by selling 855 shares of
Series B 5% Preferred Stock which provided net proceeds of approximately
$8,000,000. In conjunction with the transaction, the placement agent was granted
a five year warrant to purchase 105,556 shares of common stock at $4.86 per
share. In addition, the investors have a right to receive warrants to purchase
common stock equal to 20% of their original investment not converted to common
stock as of March 24, 1998, divided by the conversion price then in effect, with
an exercise price equal to 115% of the average closing bid price for five days
ending on the one year anniversary date. The Company believes that the capital
received from the private placement will provide adequate liquidity to fund
growth, operations, and capital expenditures for 1997.
