We have completed an integrated audit of F5 Networks,
Inc.&#146;s 2005 consolidated financial statements and of its
internal control over financial reporting as of
September&nbsp;30, 2005 and audits of its 2004 and 2003

the consolidated financial position of F5 Networks, Inc. and its
subsidiaries (the Company) at September&nbsp;30, 2005 and 2004,
and the results of their operations and their cash flows for
each of the three years in the period ended September&nbsp;30,
2005 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United&nbsp;States of America. In addition, in our
opinion, the financial statement schedule listed in the
accompanying index presents fairly, in all material respects,
the information set forth therein when read in conjunction with
the related consolidated financial statements. These financial
statements and financial statement schedule are the
responsibility of the Company&#146;s management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements and financial statement schedule based on our audits.
We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with
the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board
(United States). Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether
the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An
audit of financial statements includes examining, on a test
basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the
financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used
and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the
overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Also, in our opinion, management&#146;s assessment, included in
Management&#146;s Report on Internal Control over Financial
Reporting appearing under Item&nbsp;9A, that the Company
maintained effective internal control over financial reporting
as of September&nbsp;30, 2005 based on criteria established in
<I>Internal Control&nbsp;&#151; Integrated Framework </I>issued
by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway
Commission (COSO), is fairly stated, in all material respects,
based on those criteria. Furthermore, in our opinion, the
Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal
control over financial reporting as of September&nbsp;30, 2005
based on criteria established in <I>Internal Control&nbsp;&#151;
Integrated Framework </I>issued by the COSO. The Company&#146;s
management is responsible for maintaining effective internal
control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the
effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. Our
responsibility is to express opinions on management&#146;s
assessment and on the effectiveness of the Company&#146;s
internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We
conducted our audit of internal control over financial reporting
in accordance with the standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards
require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether effective internal control over
financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. An
audit of internal control over financial reporting includes
obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial
reporting, evaluating management&#146;s assessment, testing and
evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal
control, and performing such other procedures as we consider
necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit
provides a reasonable basis for our opinions.

control over financial reporting includes those policies and
procedures that (i)&nbsp;pertain to the maintenance of records
that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the
transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company;
(ii)&nbsp;provide reasonable assurance that transactions are
recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial

are being made only in accordance with authorizations of

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over
financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.
Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future
periods are subject to the risk that controls may become
inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree
of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

The Company&#146;s products and services are concentrated in
highly competitive markets characterized by rapid technological
advances, frequent changes in customer requirements and evolving
regulatory requirements and industry standards. Failure to
anticipate or respond adequately to technological advances,
changes in customer requirements and changes in regulatory
requirements or industry standards could have a material adverse
effect on the Company&#146;s business and operating results.
Additionally, certain other factors could affect the
Company&#146;s future operating results and cause actual results
to differ materially from expectations, including but not
limited to, the timely development, introduction and acceptance
of additional new products and features by the Company or its
competitors; competitive pricing pressures, increased sales
discounts; the Company&#146;s ability to sustain, develop and
effectively utilize distribution relationships; the
Company&#146;s ability to attract, train and retain qualified
personnel; the Company&#146;s ability to expand in international
markets, and the unpredictability of the Company&#146;s sales
cycle.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities,
disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date
of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of
revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates are
used in accounting for revenue recognition, reserves for
doubtful accounts, product returns, obsolete and excess
inventory, warranties, valuation allowance on deferred tax
assets and purchase price allocations. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with
purchased maturities of three months or less to be cash
equivalents. The Company invests its cash and cash equivalents
in deposits with three major financial institutions, which, at
times, exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not
experienced any losses on its cash and cash equivalents.

The Company classifies its investment securities as available
for sale. Investment securities, consisting of corporate and
municipal bonds and notes and United States government
securities, are reported at fair value with the related
unrealized gains and losses included as a component of
accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in
shareholders&#146; equity. Realized gains and losses and
declines in value of securities judged to be other than
temporary are included in other income (expense). The cost of
investments for purposes of computing realized and unrealized
gains and losses is based on the specific identification method.
Investments in securities with maturities of less than one year
or where management&#146;s intent is to use the investments to
fund current operations are classified as short-term
investments. Investments with maturities of greater than one
year are classified as long-term investments.

The Company extends credit to customers and is therefore subject
to credit risk. The Company performs initial and ongoing credit
evaluations of its customers&#146; financial condition and does
not require collateral. An allowance for doubtful accounts is
recorded to account for potential bad debts. Estimates are used
in determining the allowance for doubtful accounts and are based
upon an assessment of selected accounts and as a percentage of
remaining accounts receivable by aging category. In determining
these percentages, the Company evaluates historical write-offs,
and current trends in customer credit quality, as well as
changes in credit policies.

value is determined using quoted market prices for the
securities held.

The Company outsources the manufacturing of its pre-configured
hardware platforms to contract manufacturers, who assemble each
product to the Company&#146;s specifications. As protection
against component shortages and to provide replacement parts for
its service teams, the Company also stocks limited supplies of
certain key product components. The Company reduces inventory to
net realizable value based on excess and obsolete inventories
determined primarily by historical usage and forecasted demand.
Inventories consist of hardware and related component parts and
are recorded at the lower of cost or market (as determined by
the first-in, first-out method).

escrow decreased from $6.0&nbsp;million to $3.6&nbsp;million as
set forth in the lease agreement for our corporate headquarters.

improvements are capitalized at cost. Gains or losses on the

Software development costs are charged to research and
development expense until technological feasibility is
established. The Company accounts for internally-generated
software development costs in accordance with Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS)&nbsp;No.&nbsp;86,
&#147;Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to be Sold,
Leased or Otherwise Marketed.&#148; Thereafter, until the
product is released for sale, software development costs are
capitalized and reported at the lower of unamortized cost or net
realizable value of each product. The establishment of
technological feasibility and the ongoing assessment of
recoverability of costs require considerable judgment by the
Company with respect to certain internal and external factors,
including, but not limited to, anticipated future gross product
revenues, estimated economic life and changes in hardware and
software technology. The Company did not capitalize any software
development costs in fiscal year 2005. During the fiscal year
2004, the Company capitalized $424,000 of software development
costs. Related amortization costs of $272,000, $328,000, and
$298,000 were recorded during the fiscal years 2005, 2004, and
2003, respectively.

Acquired technology is recorded at cost and amortized over its
estimated useful life of five years. Acquired technology of
$5.0&nbsp;million in fiscal year 2004 and $3.0&nbsp;million in
fiscal year 2003 was recorded in connection with the
acquisitions of MagniFire and uRoam, respectively. Related
amortization expense, which is charged to cost of product
revenues, totaled $1.6&nbsp;million, $1.0&nbsp;million and
$100,000 during the fiscal years 2005, 2004 and 2003,
respectively.

The Company assesses the impairment of long-lived assets
whenever events or changes in business circumstances indicate
that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.
When such events occur, management determines whether there has
been an impairment by comparing the anticipated undiscounted net
future cash flows to the related asset&#146;s carrying value. If
an impairment exists, the asset is written down to its estimated
fair value.

The Company sells products through distributors, resellers, and
directly to end users. The Company recognizes product revenue
upon shipment, net of estimated returns, provided that
collection is determined to be probable and no significant
obligations remain. In certain regions where the Company does
not have the ability to reasonably estimate returns, the Company
defers revenue on sales to its distributors until the Company
has received information from the channel partner indicating
that the distributor has sold the product to its customer.
Payment terms to domestic customers are generally net
30&nbsp;days. Payment terms to international customers range
from net 30 to 90&nbsp;days based on normal and customary trade

Whenever a software license, hardware, installation and
post-contract customer support (&#147;PCS&#148;), elements are
sold together, a portion of the sales price is allocated to each
element based on their respective fair values as determined when
the individual elements are sold separately. Revenues from the
license of software are recognized when the software has been
shipped and the customer is obligated to pay for the software.
When rights of return are present and the Company cannot
estimate returns, the Company recognizes revenue when such
rights of return lapse. Revenues for PCS are recognized on a
straight-line basis over the service contract term. PCS includes
rights to upgrades, when and if available, a limited period of
telephone support, updates, and bug fixes. Installation revenue
is recognized when the product has been installed at the
customer&#146;s site. Consulting services are customarily billed
at fixed rates, plus out-of-pocket expenses, and revenues are
recognized when the consulting has been completed. Training
revenue is recognized when the training has been completed.

In the normal course of business to facilitate sales of its
products, the Company indemnifies other parties, including
customers, resellers, lessors, and parties to other transactions
with the Company, with respect to certain matters. The Company
has agreed to hold the other party harmless against losses
arising from a breach of representations or covenants, or out of
intellectual property infringement or other claims made against
certain parties. These agreements may limit the time within
which an indemnification claim can be made and the amount of the
claim. The Company has entered into indemnification agreements
with its officers and directors, and the Company&#146;s bylaws
contain similar indemnification obligations to the
Company&#146;s agents. It is not possible to determine the
maximum potential amount under these indemnification agreements
due to the limited history of prior indemnification claims and
the unique facts and circumstances involved in each particular
agreement.

The Company offers warranties of one year for hardware, with the
option of purchasing additional warranty coverage in yearly
increments. The Company accrues for warranty costs as part of
its cost of sales based on associated material product costs and
technical support labor costs. During the years ended
September&nbsp;30, 2005, 2004 and 2003 warranty expense was
$2.2&nbsp;million, $0.9&nbsp;million and $0.3&nbsp;million,
respectively.

The Company utilizes the liability method of accounting for
income taxes as set forth by Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No.&nbsp;109, &#147;Accounting for Income Taxes,&#148;
or SFAS&nbsp;109. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are
determined based upon differences between the financial
statement and income tax bases of assets and liabilities using
enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the
differences are expected to reverse. The realization of deferred
tax assets is based on historical tax positions and estimates of
future taxable income. A valuation allowance is recorded when it
is more likely than not that some of the deferred tax assets
will not be realized.

The functional currency for the Company&#146;s foreign
subsidiaries is the local currency in which the respective
entity is located, with the exception of F5 Networks, Ltd., in
the United Kingdom that uses the U.S.&nbsp;dollar as its
functional currency. An entity&#146;s functional currency is
determined by the currency of the economic environment in which
the majority of cash is generated and expended by the entity.
The financial statements of all majority-owned subsidiaries and
related entities, with a functional currency other than the
U.S.&nbsp;dollar, have been translated into U.S.&nbsp;dollars in
accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No.&nbsp;52 &#147;Foreign Currency Translation.&#148; All assets
and liabilities of the respective entities are translated at
year-end exchange rates and all revenues and expenses are
translated at average rates during the respective period.
Translation adjustments are reported as a separate component of
accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in shareholders
equity.

Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are a result of
the effect of exchange rate changes on transactions denominated
in currencies other than the functional currency, including
U.S.&nbsp;dollars. Gains and losses on those foreign currency
transactions are included in determining net income or loss for
the period of exchange. The net effect of foreign currency gains

</I>(&#147;APB&nbsp;25&#148;), and related Interpretations, as
permitted by FASB Statement No.&nbsp;123, <I>Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation </I>(&#147;FAS&nbsp;123&#148;). In
accordance with APB&nbsp;25 no compensation cost was required to
be recognized for options granted that had an exercise price
equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the
date of grant.

The Company adopted FAS&nbsp;123R using the
modified-prospective-transition method. Under that transition
method, compensation cost recognized in the fiscal year 2005
includes: a)&nbsp;compensation cost for all share-based payments
granted prior to, but not yet vested as of July&nbsp;1, 2005,
based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with
the original provisions of FAS&nbsp;123, and
b)&nbsp;compensation cost for all share-based payments granted
subsequent to July&nbsp;1, 2005, based on the grant-date fair
value estimated in accordance with the provisions of
FAS&nbsp;123R. The results for the prior periods have not been
restated.

Effective July&nbsp;1, 2005 the Company adopted the
straight-line attribution method for recognizing compensation
expense. Previously under the disclosure-only provisions of
SFAS&nbsp;123, the Company used the accelerated method of
expense recognition pursuant to FASB Interpretation No.&nbsp;28,
<I>Accounting for Stock Appreciation Rights and Other Variable
Stock Option or Award Plans </I>(&#147;FIN&nbsp;28&#148;). For
all unvested options outstanding as of July&nbsp;1, 2005, the
previously measured but unrecognized compensation expense, based
on the fair value at the original grant date, will be recognized
on an accelerated basis over the remaining vesting period. For
share-based payments granted subsequent to July&nbsp;1, 2005,
compensation expense, based on the fair value on the date of
grant, will be recognized on a straight-line basis over the
vesting period.

The fair value of restricted stock units is based on the price
of a share of our common stock on the date of grant. However, in
determining the fair value of stock options, we use the
Black-Scholes option pricing model that employs the following
key assumptions.

The risk-free rate is based on the U.S.&nbsp;Treasury yield
curve in effect at the time of grant. The Company does not
anticipate declaring dividends in the foreseeable future.
Expected volatility is based on the annualized daily historical
volatility of our stock price commensurate with the expected
life of the option. Expected term of the option is based on an
evaluation of the historical employee stock option exercise
behavior, the vesting terms of the respective option and a
contractual life of ten years. Our stock price volatility and
option lives involve management&#146;s best estimates at that
time, both of which impact the fair value of the option
calculated under the Black-Scholes methodology and, ultimately,
the expense that will be recognized over the life of the option.
SFAS&nbsp;123R also requires that we recognize compensation
expense for only the portion of options or stock units that are
expected to vest. Therefore, the Company applies estimated
forfeiture rates that are derived from historical employee
termination behavior. The estimated forfeiture rate in the
fourth quarter of fiscal 2005 is 5%. If the actual number of

The following table shows the pro forma effect on the
Company&#146;s net income (loss) and net income (loss) per share
for the years ended September&nbsp;30, 2005, 2004 and 2003, had
compensation expense been determined based upon the fair value
at the grant date for awards consistent with the methodology
prescribed by SFAS&nbsp;123. The Company adopted SFAS&nbsp;123R
on July&nbsp;1, 2005 the beginning of its fourth quarter of
fiscal 2005; therefore, stock-based compensation expense shown
in the pro forma table relates to expense through June&nbsp;30,
2005 while the Company was still under the disclosure only
provisions of SFAS&nbsp;123. Stock-based compensation expense
for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2005 has been included in
results of operations. These pro forma effects may not be
representative of expense in future periods since the estimated
fair value of stock options on the date of grant is amortized to
expense over the vesting period, and additional options may be
granted or options may be cancelled in future years:

In March 2004, the Emerging Issues Task Force
(EITF)&nbsp;reached a consensus on Issue No.&nbsp;03-1,
&#147;The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its
Application to Certain Investments.&#148; EITF&nbsp;03-1
provides guidance on other-than-temporary impairment models for
marketable debt and equity securities accounted for under
SFAS&nbsp;No.&nbsp;115, &#147;Accounting for Certain Investments
in Debt and Equity Securities,&#148; and SFAS&nbsp;No.&nbsp;124,
&#147;Accounting for Certain Investments Held by Not-for-Profit
Organizations,&#148; and non-marketable equity securities
accounted for under the cost method. The EITF&nbsp;developed a
basic three-step model to evaluate whether an investment is
other-than-temporarily impaired. On September&nbsp;30, 2004, the
FASB approved the issuance of FASB Staff Position
(FSP)&nbsp;EITF&nbsp;03-1-1, which delays the effective date
until additional guidance is issued for the application of the
recognition and measurement provisions of EITF&nbsp;03-1 to
investments in securities that are impaired. In November 2005,
the FASB issued FSP FAS&nbsp;115-1 and FAS&nbsp;124-1, &#147;The
Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and its Application
to Certain Investments.&#148; This FSP addresses the
determination as to when an investment is considered impaired,
whether the impairment is other than temporary and the
measurement of an impairment loss. This statement specifically
nullifies the requirements of paragraph&nbsp;10-18 of
EITF&nbsp;03-1 and references existing other-than-temporary
impairment guidance. The guidance under this FSP is effective
for reporting periods beginning after December&nbsp;15, 2005.
The Company does not expect the adoption of FSP FAS&nbsp;115-1
and FAS&nbsp;124-1 to have a material effect on the
Company&#146;s results of operations or financial condition.

In May of 2005, the FASB issued SFAS&nbsp;No.&nbsp;154,
&#147;Accounting Changes and Error Corrections&nbsp;&#151; A
Replacement of APB Opinion No.&nbsp;20 and FASB Statement
No.&nbsp;3,&#148; which changes the requirements for the
accounting and reporting of a change in accounting principle.
The Statement applies to all voluntary changes in accounting
principle and to changes required by an accounting pronouncement
in the unusual instance that the pronouncement does not include
specific transition provisions. This Statement requires
retrospective application to prior periods&#146; financial
statements of changes in accounting principle, unless it is
impracticable to determine either the period-specific effects or
the cumulative effect of the change. SFAS&nbsp;No.&nbsp;154 is
effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made
in fiscal years beginning

The Company invests in securities that are rated investment
grade or better. The unrealized losses on these investments were
caused by interest rate increases and not credit quality. The
Company has determined the unrealized losses are temporary as
the duration of the decline in value of investments has been
short, the extent of the decline, in both dollars and as a
percentage of costs, is not significant, and the Company has the
ability and intent to hold the investments until it recovers at
least substantially all of the cost of the investments.

The Company&#146;s acquisitions are accounted for under the
purchase method of accounting in accordance with Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No.&nbsp;141, &#147;Business
Combinations.&#148; The total purchase price is allocated to the
tangible and intangible assets acquired and the liabilities
assumed based on their estimated fair values. The excess of the
purchase price over those fair values is recorded as goodwill.
The fair value assigned to the tangible and intangible assets
acquired and liabilities assumed are based on estimates and
assumptions provided by management, and other information
compiled by management, including independent valuations,
prepared by valuation specialists that utilize established
valuation techniques appropriate for the technology industry. In
accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No.&nbsp;142, &#147;Goodwill and other Intangible Assets,&#148;
goodwill is not amortized but instead is tested for impairment
at least annually.

Of the total estimated purchase price, $5.0&nbsp;million was
allocated to developed technology. To determine the value of the
developed technology, a combination of cost and market
approaches were used. The cost approach required an estimation
of the costs required to reproduce the acquired technology. The
market approach measures the fair value of the technology
through an analysis of recent comparable transactions. The
$5.0&nbsp;million allocated to developed technology is being
amortized on a straight-line basis over an estimated useful life
of five years.

At the time of the acquisition, the estimated purchase price was
allocated to goodwill in the amount of $24.8&nbsp;million,
including the Company&#146;s full valuation allowance on
deferred taxes. During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2004,
the Company reversed the valuation allowance and therefore
increased the amount allocated to goodwill by an additional
$1.1&nbsp;million due to the deferred tax liability that was
assumed as a result of the acquisition. During the fourth
quarter of fiscal year 2005, the Company adjusted the fair value
of certain other assets and as a result decreased the amount
allocated to goodwill by $0.4&nbsp;million.

the assets of uRoam, Inc. (uRoam), including uRoam&#146;s
FirePass product line, and assumed certain liabilities for cash
of $25.0&nbsp;million. The Company also incurred
$2.4&nbsp;million of direct transaction costs for a total
purchase price of $27.4&nbsp;million. uRoam&#146;s FirePass
server is a comprehensive remote access product that enables
users to access applications in a secure fashion using industry
standard Secured Socket Layer technology. The acquired
technology is currently being amortized over its estimated
useful life of five years using the straight-line method. The
excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the
identifiable tangible and intangible net assets acquired of
$24.2&nbsp;million was recorded as goodwill. The results of
operations of uRoam have been included in the Company&#146;s
consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition.

As of September&nbsp;30, 2005, restructuring liabilities were
$0.6&nbsp;million and consisted of obligations under an excess
facility operating lease. The excess facility charge was
initially recognized during fiscal 2002 as part of the
Company&#146;s decision to discontinue its cache appliance
business and exit its support facility in Washington D.C. The
remaining liability approximates the full amount owed through
the remainder of the lease term, expiring in 2007, and actual
losses are not expected to vary from the original estimate.

During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2005 the Company
determined, based on an evaluation of current operating results
and projected future taxable income that the valuation allowance
of $2.6&nbsp;million pertaining to net operating loss
carry-forwards in the United Kingdom was no longer needed and as
a result the related valuation allowance was reversed. In the
prior year, the Company determined that the U.S.&nbsp;deferred
tax assets were more likely than not to be realizable and
reversed the related valuation allowance during the fourth
quarter of fiscal 2004. The Company had provided for a full
valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets at the end
of fiscal year 2003. If the estimates and assumptions used in
our determination change in the future, we could be required to
revise our estimates of the valuation allowances against our
deferred tax assets and adjust our provisions for additional
income taxes.

At September&nbsp;30, 2005, the Company had approximately
$64.3&nbsp;million of U.S.&nbsp;net operating loss
carry-forwards resulting from tax benefits associated with
employee stock option plans, a portion of which begins to expire
in 2011. The Company also had net operating loss carry-forwards
of approximately $7.4&nbsp;million related to operations in the
United Kingdom that carry-forward indefinitely. At
September&nbsp;30, 2005, the Company also has federal research
credit carry-forwards of approximately $7.2&nbsp;million which,
if not utilized, will begin to expire in fiscal year 2011 and
state research credit carry-forwards of $349,000 which will
begin to expire in fiscal year 2025.

United States income and foreign withholding taxes have not been
provided on approximately $1.8&nbsp;million of undistributed
earnings from the Company&#146;s international subsidiaries. The
Company has not recognized a deferred tax liability for the
undistributed earnings of its foreign subsidiaries because the
Company currently does not expect to remit those earnings in the
foreseeable future. Determination of the amount of unrecognized
deferred tax liability related to undistributed earnings of
foreign subsidiaries is not practicable because such liability,
if any, is dependent on circumstances existing if and when
remittance occurs.

On October&nbsp;22, 2004, the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004
(AJCA)&nbsp;was signed into law. The AJCA provides for a
temporary 85% dividends received deduction on certain earnings
repatriated during either fiscal year 2005 or fiscal year 2006.
The deduction would result in an approximate 5.25% federal tax
rate on the repatriated earnings. To qualify for the deduction,
the earnings must be reinvested in the

In November 2003, the Company sold 5,175,000&nbsp;shares,
including 675,000&nbsp;shares sold upon the exercise of the
underwriters&#146; over-allotment option, of its common stock in

In fiscal 2005, the Company modified the method in which it
issues incentive awards to its employees through stock-based
compensation. In prior years, stock-based compensation consisted
only of stock options. In 2005, the majority of awards consisted
of restricted stock unit awards and to a lesser degree stock
options. Employees vest in restricted stock units and stock
options ratably over the corresponding service term, generally
one to four years. The Company&#146;s stock options expire
10&nbsp;years from the date of grant. Restricted stock units are
payable in shares of the Company&#146;s common stock as the
periodic vesting requirements are satisfied. The value of a
restricted stock unit is based upon the fair market value of the
Company&#146;s common stock on the date of grant. The value of
restricted stock units is determined using the intrinsic value
method and is based on the number of shares granted and the
quoted price of the Company&#146;s common stock on the date of
grant. Alternatively, the Company uses the Black-Scholes option
pricing model to determine the fair value of its stock options.
Compensation expense related to restricted stock units and stock
options is recognized over the vesting period. The Company has
adopted a number of stock-based compensation plans as discussed
below.

<I>1998 Equity Incentive Plan.</I> In November 1998, the Company
adopted the 1998 Equity Incentive Plan, or the 1998 Plan, which
provides for discretionary grants of non-qualified and incentive
stock options, stock purchase awards and stock bonuses for
employees and other service providers. Upon certain changes in
control of the Company, all outstanding and unvested options or
stock awards under the 1998 Plan will vest at the rate of 50%,
unless assumed or substituted by the acquiring entity. As of
September&nbsp;30, 2005, there were options to
purchase&nbsp;1,663,983&nbsp;shares outstanding and
58,934&nbsp;shares available for awards under the 1998 Plan.

<I>1999 Employee Stock Purchase Plan.</I> In May 1999, the board
of directors approved the adoption of the 1999 Employee Stock
Purchase Plan, or the Employee Stock Purchase Plan. A total of
2,000,000&nbsp;shares of common stock have been reserved for
issuance under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan. The Employee
Stock Purchase Plan permits eligible employees to acquire shares
of the Company&#146;s common stock through periodic payroll
deductions of up to 15% of base compensation. No employee may
purchase more than $25,000 worth of stock, determined at the
fair market value of the shares at the time such option is
granted, in one calendar year. The Employee Stock Purchase Plan
has been implemented in a series of offering periods, each
6&nbsp;months in duration. The price at which the common stock
may be purchased is 85% of the lesser of the fair market value
of the Company&#146;s common stock on the first day of the
applicable offering period or on the last day of the respective
purchase period. As of September&nbsp;30, 2005 there were
1,012,549&nbsp;shares available for awards under the Employee
Stock Purchase Plan.

adopted a non-qualified stock option plan, or the Pancottine
Plan, in connection with the hiring of Jeff Pancottine, the
Company&#146;s Senior Vice President and General Manager,

The Company recognized $4.6&nbsp;million of pre-tax stock
compensation expense following the early adoption of
FAS&nbsp;123R in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2005. As of
September&nbsp;30, 2005, there was $32.7&nbsp;million of total
unrecognized compensation cost, related to unvested stock
options and restricted stock units, the majority of which will
be recognized ratably over the next two years. An assumption of
a five percent forfeiture rate is utilized when arriving at the
amount of stock compensation expense.

In July and August 2001, a series of putative securities class
action lawsuits were filed in United&nbsp;States District Court,
Southern District of New York against certain investment banking
firms that underwrote the Company&#146;s initial and secondary
public offerings, the Company and some of the Company&#146;s
officers and directors. These cases, which have been
consolidated under In re F5 Networks, Inc. Initial Public
Offering Securities Litigation, No.&nbsp;01 CV 7055, assert that
the registration statements for the Company&#146;s June&nbsp;4,
1999 initial public offering and September&nbsp;30, 1999
secondary offering failed to disclose certain alleged improper
actions by the underwriters for the offerings. The consolidated,
amended complaint alleges claims against the Company and those
of our officers and directors named in the complaint under
Sections&nbsp;11 and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933, and under
Sections&nbsp;10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934. Other lawsuits have been filed making similar allegations
regarding the public offerings of more than 300 other companies.
All of these various consolidated cases have been coordinated
for pretrial purposes as In re Initial Public Offering
Securities Litigation, Civil Action No.&nbsp;21-MC-92. In
October 2002, the directors and officers were dismissed without
prejudice. The issuer defendants filed a coordinated motion to
dismiss these lawsuits in July 2002, which the Court granted in
part and denied in part in an order dated February&nbsp;19,
2003. The Court declined to dismiss the Section&nbsp;11 and
Section&nbsp;10(b) and Rule&nbsp;10b-5 claims against the
Company. In June 2004, a stipulation of settlement for the
claims against the issuer defendants, including the Company, was
submitted to the Court. On August&nbsp;31, 2005, the Court
granted preliminary approval of the settlement. The settlement
is subject to a number of conditions, including final approval
by the Court. If the settlement does not occur, and litigation
against us continues, we believe we have meritorious defenses
and intend to defend the case vigorously. Securities class
action litigation could result in substantial costs and divert
our management&#146;s attention and resources. Due to the
inherent uncertainties of litigation, we cannot accurately
predict the ultimate outcome of the litigation, and any
unfavorable outcome could have a material adverse impact on our
business, financial condition and operating results.

We are not aware of any additional pending legal proceedings
that, individually or in the aggregate, would have a material
adverse effect on the Company&#146;s business, operating
results, or financial condition. We may in the future be party
to litigation arising in the ordinary course of business,
including claims that allegedly infringe upon third-party
trademarks or other intellectual property rights. Such claims,
even if not meritorious, could result in the expenditure of
significant financial and managerial resources.

Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise
for which separate financial information is available and
evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision-maker, or
decision-making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and
in assessing performance. The Company is organized as, and
operates in, one reportable segment: the development, marketing
and selling of a comprehensive suite of application networking
solutions that helps customers efficiently and securely manage
application traffic on their Internet-based networks. We manage
our business based on four geographic regions: the Americas
(primarily the United States); Europe, the Middle East, and
Africa (EMEA); Japan; and Asia Pacific. Our chief operating
decision-making group reviews financial information presented on
a consolidated basis accompanied by information about revenues
by geographic region. Our foreign offices conduct sales,
marketing and support activities. The Company&#146;s management
evaluates performance based primarily on revenues in the
geographic locations in which the Company operates. Revenues are
attributed by geographic location based on the location of the
customer. The Company&#146;s assets are primarily located in the
United States and not allocated to any specific region.
Therefore, geographic information is presented only for net
product revenue.

stock of Swan Labs, Inc. (Swan Labs), a privately held Delaware
