- - -------------------------------------

     The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared

notes thereto contained in the Company's Annual Report on From 10-K for the
fiscal year ended December 31, 1995 filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission on March 31, 1996.

     In the opinion of management, these statements include all adjustments,
consisting of normal, recurring adjustments, which are necessary for a fair

Item 2.   Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

General

     TranSwitch Corporation was organized and commenced operations in April
1988.  Since its incorporation, the Company has designed, sourced and marketed
high-speed VLSI devices for public and private network applications worldwide.
The Company shipped its first product in 1990 and has increased its volume of
shipments over the last six years.  The Company's product development efforts
have been focused on devices that meet the needs of public and private network
telecommunications and data communications equipment providers and are compliant
with established standards in these markets, including asynchronous, SONET/SDH
and the emerging ATM standard.  The Company's products are generally
incorporated into OEM's products at the design stage, which often requires
significant expenditures by the Company well in advance of substantial orders
from the customer.

     The Company believes that period to period comparisons of its financial
results are not necessarily meaningful and should not be relied upon as an
indication of future performance.  In addition, the Company's results of
operations may fluctuate from period to period in the future.

Three month periods ended March 31, 1996 and 1995

Revenue

     The Company derives its revenues principally from product sales. The
Company also derives revenues from sponsorship of development programs, non-
recurring engineering contracts for research and development programs, and
product licenses and royalties. Total revenues for the quarter ended March 31,
1996 was $6.4 million, representing a 98% increase over the $3.2 million
recorded in the prior year period. There was an increase in the mix of product
revenues vs. research and development contracts and license and royalty fees in
the quarter ended March 31, 1996 compared to the corresponding quarter in 1995.
Product revenues increased 129% to $6.3 million for the quarter ended March 31,
1996 compared to $2.7 million for the corresponding quarter in 1995. The
increase in volume was primarily a result of increase in the demand for its ATM
and SONET product lines.

Gross Profit

     Gross profit increased 99% to $3.5 million for the quarter ended March 31,
1996 from $1.8 million in the corresponding period of the prior year. The
increase was primarily the result of higher volume sales of the Company's
products. Gross margin increased to 55.1% for the quarter ended March 31, 1996
as compared to 54.8% for the quarter ended March 31, 1995, but decreased when


Page 8 of 13
<PAGE>
 
compared to the 61.3% gross margin for the quarter ended December 31, 1995.  The
decrease in gross margin when compared to the prior quarter was principally the
result of amortization expense associated with the Texas Instrument (TI)
repurchase agreement that was consummated in December, 1995 and to a lesser
extent to changes in product mix.  Without the costs associated with the TI
agreement the gross margin for the first quarter of 1996 would have been 58.1%.

Research and Development

     Research and development expenses declined to 32.7% of total revenues for
the quarter ended March 31, 1996 from 43.4% of total revenues for the quarter
ended March 31, 1995, although total spending increased 48.9% to $2.1 million
for the quarter ended March 31, 1996 compared to $1.4 million for the quarter
ended March 31, 1995.  The increase was the result of the Company's continued
investment in research and development activities.

Marketing and Sales

     Marketing and sales expenses declined to 18.6% of total revenues for the
quarter ended March 31, 1996 compared to 30.3% for the quarter ended March 31,
1995, although total spending increased 21.5% to $1.2 million for the quarter
ended March 31, 1996 compared to $1.0 million for the quarter ended March 31,
1995.  The increase in spending was the result of the increase in total revenues
and the Company's continued investment in its marketing and sales
infrastructure.


General and Administrative

     General and administrative expenses increased to $408,000 from $298,000 for
the same quarter in the prior year, but declined as a percentage of total
revenues to 6.4% for the quarter ended March 31, 1996 compared to 9.2% for the
quarter ended March 31, 1995.  The increase in expense is primarily the result
of the increase in administrative activities to support the higher sales
volumes.

Interest Income, net

     Interest income, net of interest expense, was $232,700 in the quarter ended
March 31, 1996 compared to $2,000 in the corresponding period in 1995. Total
interest earned on investments for the quarter of $267,100 was offset by $34,400
of the interest expense incurred as a result of the TI repurchase agreement.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     The Company has financed its operations and met its capital requirements
since it was incorporated in 1988 primarily through cash generated from its
operations, private placements of

Page 9 of 13
<PAGE>
 
preferred stock and borrowings from a working capital line and equipment
financing from Silicon Valley Bank.  The Company completed an initial public
offering on June 19, 1995 and July 13, 1995 and raised a total of $24.0 million,
including $3.1 million from the exercise of an over-allotment option of 375,000
shares granted to the Underwriters of the initial public offering and exercised
on July 10, 1995.

     In the first three months of 1996, the Company generated $769,000 of cash
from operating activities including a decrease in the accounts receivables and
inventory levels.  Capital expenditures in this period were $636,000 including
purchases of computer equipment, tooling and software acquisitions.

       At March 31, 1996, the Company had cash and cash equivalents and short
term investments of approximately $17.3 million. The Company believes that the
cash flow from operations and its available credit lines will be sufficient to
satisfy the Company's cash needs for at least the next 12 months. However, there
can be no assurance that events in the future will not require the Company to
seek additional capital sooner or, if so required, that such capital will be
available on terms favorable or acceptable to the Company, if at all.


Certain Factors That May affect Future Results

     The Company's quarterly and annual operating results are affected by a wide
variety of factors that could materially adversely affect revenues and
profitability, including: competitive pressures on selling prices; the time and
cancellation of customers orders; the timing and provision of pricing
protections and returns from certain distributors; availability of foundry
capacity and raw materials; fluctuations in yields; changes in product mix; the
Company's ability to introduce new products and technologies on a timely basis;
introduction of products and technologies by the Company's competitors; market
acceptance of the Company's and its competitors' products; the level of orders
received which can be shipped in a quarter; the amount and timing of recognition
of non-recurring engineering revenue; the timing of investments in research and
development, including tooling expenses associated with product development and
pre-production; and whether the Company's customers buy directly from the
Company or a distributor. Due to the absence of substantial noncancellable
backlog, the Company typically plans its production and inventory levels based
on internal forecasts of customer demand, which are highly unpredictable and can
fluctuate substantially. Because the Company is continuing to increase its
operating expenses for personnel and new product development and for inventory
in anticipation of sales levels, operating results would be adversely affected
if increased sales are not achieved. As a result of the foregoing and other
factors, the Company may experience material fluctuations in future operating
results on a quarterly or annual basis which could materially and adversely
affect its business, financial condition, operating results and stock price.
