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

         The following discussion and other sections of this Form 10-Q may
contain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. All
statements regarding future events, our future financial performance and
operating results, our business strategy and our financing plans are
forward-looking statements. In many cases, you can identify forward-looking
statements by terminology, such as "may," "will," "should," "expects,"
"intends," "plans," "anticipates," "believes," "estimates," "predicts,"
"potential," or "continue," or the negative of such terms and other comparable
terminology. These statements are only predictions. Known and unknown risks,
uncertainties and other factors could cause our actual results to differ
materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements.

OVERVIEW

         We are a leading developer, manufacturer and distributor of broadband
and narrowband network access products for network service providers ("NSPs")
and business customers. We offer solutions that enable business class, service
level managed, high-speed connectivity over the existing telephone network
infrastructure and provide for cost-effective access speeds of up to 45 MBPS. We
market and sell our products worldwide to NSPs and business customers through a
multi-tier distribution system that includes direct sales, strategic partner
sales, NSP sales and traditional distributor or value added reseller ("VAR")
sales. We estimate that direct and indirect sales to, and services performed for
Lucent accounted for approximately 25% of our total revenues for the first three
months of 2000 versus 30% for the first three months of 1999. Sales to Rhythms,
an NSP, accounted for approximately 19% of our total revenue during the first
three months of 2000 versus 24% for the same period in 1999. Sales to Connect
South Communications, Inc., also an NSP and a new customer for 2000, accounted
for approximately 11% of our total revenue during the first three months of
2000. A loss or a significant reduction or delay in sales to any of our major
customers could materially and adversely affect our business, financial
condition and results of operation.

         We generally recognize revenue from equipment sales upon shipment.
Estimated sales returns based on historical experience by product are recorded
at the time the product revenue is recognized. Charges for warranty work are
included in cost of equipment sales. Revenue from services, which consists
mainly of repair of out-of-warranty products, is recognized when the services
are performed and all substantial contractual obligations have been satisfied.
License and royalty revenues are recognized when we have completed delivery of
technical specifications and performed substantially all required services under
the related agreement.

         The information contained in this Form 10-Q is not a complete
description of our business or the risks associated with an investment in us.
Readers are referred to documents filed by Paradyne with the Securities and
Exchange Commission, specifically the most recent filings, which identify
important risk factors that could cause actual results to differ from those
contained in the forward-looking statements, including: rapid technological
change could render our products obsolete; we are substantially dependent on
network service providers, who may reduce or discontinue their purchase of
products or services at any time; our dependence on only a few major customers
for a substantial portion of our revenues exposes us to financial risks; we
compete in highly competitive markets and competition could harm our ability to
sell products and services; if we are unable to attract and retain key personnel
and a skilled workforce, we may not be able to sustain or grow our business; our
dependence on development relationships could threaten our ability to sell
products;




                                       6

our reliance on international sales may make us susceptible to global economic
factors, foreign tax law issues and currency fluctuations; we rely heavily on
distributors and resellers; we depend on sole and single source suppliers which
exposes us to potential supply interruption.


THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2000 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1999

REVENUES. Total revenues increased $10.4 million, or 19.3%, to $64.5 million for
the three months ended March 31, 2000 from $54.1 million for the same period in
1999. The increase was primarily due to an increase in the volume of sales of
our broadband access products. As a percentage of total revenues, equipment
sales were 97.6% of total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2000
compared to 94.3% for the three months ended March 31, 1999. This percentage
increase is mostly due to the absence of royalty income in the first quarter of
2000 versus the first quarter of 1999. The first three months of 1999 included a
one-time royalty fee from Globespan related to termination of an existing
agreement and a one-time license fee from a third party for intellectual
property relating to narrowband technology.

GROSS MARGIN. Gross margin increased $3.0 million or 12.5% to $27.1 million for
the three months ended March 31, 2000 from $24.1 million for the three months
ended March 31, 1999. Most of the increase results from increased sales of our
broadband access products. Gross margin as a percentage of total revenues
decreased to 42.0% in 2000 from 44.6% in 1999 primarily as a result of $2.6
million in one-time royalty and license fees that occurred in 1999 but were not
repeated in 2000.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES. Research and development expenses increased
$0.8 million, or 8.7%, to $9.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2000
from $8.7 million in 1999. This increase resulted primarily from costs
associated with the increase in research and development personnel. As a
percentage of total revenues, research and development expense decreased to
14.8% for the three months ended March 31,2000 from 16.2% in the same period of
1999. This decrease is primarily attributable to the 19.3% increase in revenue
during the period.

SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE ("SG&A") EXPENSES. SG&A expenses increased
$1.4 million, or 10.0%, to $15.2 million for the three months ended March 31,
2000 from $13.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 1999. The increase
is primarily attributable to a $2.0 million increase in advertising related
expenses, offset in part by a $.3 million decrease in professional fees and a
$.3 million decrease in consignment to customers. SG&A expense as a percentage
of revenue declined from 25.6% for the three months ended March 31, 1999 to
23.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2000. This decrease is primarily
attributable to the 19.3% increase in revenue during the period. In an effort to
increase sales of products to our major customers we expect to increase our
investment in marketing and promotion expenses in the second quarter.

AMORTIZATION OF DEFERRED STOCK COMPENSATION. The $.1 million amortization of
deferred stock compensation is related to the previous granting of stock options
to key employees at prices deemed to be below fair market value for financial
reporting purposes.

INTEREST AND OTHER (INCOME) EXPENSE, NET. Interest and other (income) expense,
net, decreased by $1.1 million to $1.3 million of income for the three months
ended March 31, 2000, from $2.4 million of income for the same period in 1999.
Interest and other (income) expense, net, is related to interest on notes
payable and borrowings under lines of credit, interest on short term
investments, foreign exchange gains and losses, and technology sales. This
decrease in income was primarily attributable to a reduction in the amount of
income received from the sale of patents in 2000, offset by an increase in
interest income resulting from the investment of proceeds from the initial
public offering (IPO) and a decrease in interest expense due to the retirement
of debt using IPO proceeds.

PROVISION (BENEFIT) FOR INCOME TAXES. Provision (benefit) for income taxes
decreased by $.4 million to $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31,
2000, from $1.5 million for the same period in 1999. The effective tax rate used
during the first quarter of 1999 was 39%. The rate was reduced to 31% during
1999, primarily as a result of two events. First, the Company had a secondary
offering during the third quarter of 1999 that reduced Texas Pacific Group's
ownership below 50%, allowing the Company to take advantage of a tax credit for
increased research spending. Second, legislation was passed during the fourth
quarter of 1999 that extended that

same tax credit from June of 1999 through June 2004. For the year 2000, the
Company has kept the effective tax rate at 31%.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         Net cash provided by operations for the three months ended March 31,
2000 totaled $1.5 million. Net income totaled $4.1 million after adjusting for
non-cash impacting items such as depreciation, amortization and allowance for
bad debts. Also contributing to cash provided from operations were increases in
accounts payable totaling $15.9 million and other current liabilities totaling
$2.2 million as a result of the timing of material receipts from vendors and
increased advertising related expenses. Decreases to cash from operating
activities partially offsetting the above contributions included increases in
accounts receivable totaling $13.8 million and inventories totaling $4.4
million. Additionally, payroll related liabilities decreased $2.2 million. The
increase in receivable is attributable to a 5% increase in sales in the first
quarter 2000 over the fourth quarter 1999 as well as timing of the sales during
the first quarter. Inventories increased in anticipation of heavy customer
demand early in the second quarter. Payroll related liabilities decreased as a
result of paying annual management incentive compensation.

         Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March
31, 2000 totaled $2.5 million and reflects capital expenditures made in support
of operations. We anticipate that capital requirements for the remainder of the
year will be in the $2.0 million to $3.0 million per quarter range.

         Net cash provided by financing activities totaled $1.8 million and
resulted primarily from the exercise of stock options during the quarter.

         We had $63.7 million of cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 2000
representing an increase of $0.8 million from $62.9 million at December 31,1999.
Working capital increased $9.2 million from $86.4 million at December 31, 1999
to $95.6 million at March 31, 2000.

         Effective January 1, 2000, we extended our revolving line of credit
facility with Bank of America until January 31, 2001, voluntarily reduced the
facility to $30.0 million and reduced the unused line fee to 0.25% per annum.
There were no borrowings under this facility during the first quarter of 2000.

         In connection with our efforts to obtain major new accounts we are
often required to make commitments to purchase inventory prior to having
approved purchase orders with customers due to the long lead times required for
certain parts. These commitments can impact cash flow until the purchase order
is approved, orders shipped, and cash collected. We cannot assure that we will
be successful in obtaining sufficient purchase orders, shipments and collections
in all cases which could result in an increase in inventory levels and
negatively impact cash flow in a particular quarter or quarters.

         We believe that our cash and cash equivalents, together with cash flows
from operations and borrowings under the Bank of America line of credit
facility, will be sufficient to meet our working capital needs for at least the
next 18 months.

YEAR 2000 ISSUES

         In 1996 we identified the Year 2000 problem as a potential risk to our
operations. As a result, we developed a comprehensive multi-year plan to make
our internal computer software and hardware systems Year 2000 compliant. Our
Year 2000 compliance plan was comprised of 3 phases: an assessment phase; an
implementation phase; and a testing phase. This plan, initiated in the first
quarter of fiscal 1997, has been completed by us and, to date, we have incurred
expenses related to Year 2000 readiness of approximately $3.7 million.

         We were successful in transitioning our computer systems and equipment
to the Year 2000. Although we believe that we have implemented a comprehensive
plan for addressing the Year 2000 problem, we cannot be certain that these Year
2000 compliance efforts will be completely successful for the remainder of the
year 2000 and beyond. Nonetheless, we have not experienced, and we do not
anticipate, any significant problems related to the transition to the Year 2000.
Furthermore, we do not anticipate any significant expenditure in the future
related to Year 2000 compliance.

INFLATION

         Because of the relatively low levels of inflation experienced in 1999
and 2000 to date, inflation did not have a significant effect on our results in
such periods.

ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

         We do not engage in investing in or trading market risk sensitive
instruments. We also do not purchase, for investing, hedging, or for purposes
"other than trading", instruments that are likely to expose us to market risk,
whether interest rate, foreign currency exchange, commodity price or equity
price risk, except as noted in the following paragraph. We have not entered into
any forward or futures contracts, purchased any options or entered into any
interest rate swaps. Additionally, we do not currently engage in foreign
currency hedging transactions to manage exposure for transactions denominated in
currencies other than U.S. dollars

         If we were to borrow from our revolving line of credit facility with
Bank of America, we would be exposed to changes in interest rates. We are also
exposed to changes in interest rates from investments in some held-to-maturity
securities. Under our current policies, we do not use interest rate derivative
instruments to manage exposure to interest rate changes. Additionally, we do not
currently engage in foreign currency hedging transactions to manage exposure for
transactions denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars.

ITEM 2.  CHANGES IN SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

         (d)      USE OF PROCEEDS

                  Our Registration Statement on Form S-1 (Registration No.
         333-76385) was declared effective on July 15, 1999 and the Company's
         initial public offering commenced on July 16, 1999. We received net
         proceeds of approximately $62,240,000 after deducting estimated
         underwriting discounts, commissions, and offering expenses. As of March
         31, 2000, we had used approximately $17,000,000 of the net proceeds to
         repay all the outstanding indebtedness from our $30,000,000 revolving
         line of credit facility with Bank of America and to pay for certain
         capital expenditures. Subsequent thereto, we used approximately $3.1
         million (along with the issuance of a note for $4.7 million) to
         purchase substantially all of the assets of Control Resources
         Corporation. We intend to use the remainder of the net proceeds for
         general corporate purposes, including working capital and additional
         capital expenditures. We are currently assessing the specific uses and
         allocations for these remaining funds.
