Exhibit 99.2

RED HAT, INC.

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Balance Sheet as of November 30, 2004, and the Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statements of Operations for the year ended February 2004 and the nine months ended November 30, 2004 combine the historical Red Hat and Netscape Security Solutions (“the NSS Unit”) balance sheets and statement of operations as if the acquisition of the NSS Unit, which occurred on December 7, 2004, had been completed on November 30, 2004 for purposes of the presentation of the Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Balance Sheet, and as of March 1, 2003 for purposes of the presentation of the Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statements of Operations.

We completed the purchase of the Netscape Security Solutions unit from Netscape Communications Corporation and America Online, Inc. for a purchase price of $20.5 million in cash. An additional $2.5 is payable by Red Hat contingent on certain future customer orders being placed on or before April 30, 2005. The assets acquired are derived from the Netscape Enterprise Suite and include Netscape Directory Server and Netscape Certificate Management System. The Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Statements should be read together with Red Hat’s and Netscape’s historical consolidated financial statements including the notes to these statements.

The pro forma adjustments reflecting the consummation of the acquisition are based on the purchase method of accounting, available financial information, and certain estimates and assumptions set forth in the notes to the Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Statements. The Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Statements reflect our best estimates based on preliminary information. The final purchase price allocation and the actual financial position and results of operations may differ significantly from the pro forma amounts reflected herein due to various factors, including, without limitation, access to additional financial information and changes in value based on a final purchase price allocation. The valuation resulted in $14.2 million allocated to identifiable intangibles, which will be amortized over an average useful life associated with these assets of between three to five years. The pro forma adjustments do not reflect any operating efficiencies or cost savings that may be achievable with respect to the combined business of Red Hat and the NSS Unit nor do they reflect integration costs that may have been unforeseen at the date of purchase.

The Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended February 29, 2004 and as of and for the nine months ended November 30, 2004, do not purport to represent what the actual financial condition or results of operations of the combined business would have been if the acquisition of the NSS Unit had occurred on the dates indicated in these pro forma combined financial statements nor does this information purport to project our results or financial position for any future periods.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Basis of Presentation

The Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Balance Sheet as of November 30, 2004, and the Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statements of Operations for the year ended February 2004 and the nine months ended November 30, 2004 combine the historical Red Hat and Netscape Security Solutions (“the NSS Unit”) balance sheets and statement of operations as if the acquisition of the NSS Unit, which occurred on December 7, 2004, had been completed on November 30, 2004 for purposes of the presentation of the Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Balance Sheet, and as of March 1, 2003 for purposes of the presentation of the Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Statements of Operations. The NSS Unit does not have the same fiscal year end as Red Hat. Therefore, we have combined their results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2003 and the nine months ended September 30, 2004 with our historical annual and interim financial statements. The balance sheet for the NSS Unit as of September 30, 2004 has been combined with Red Hat’s interim balance sheet as of November 30, 2004.

We completed the purchase of the Netscape Security Solutions unit from Netscape Communications Corporation and America Online, Inc. for a purchase price of $20.5 million in cash. An additional $2.5 is payable by Red Hat contingent on certain future customer orders being placed on or before April 30, 2005. The assets acquired are derived from the Netscape Enterprise Suite and include Netscape Directory Server and Netscape Certificate Management System.

Pro Forma Adjustments

(a) Records the preliminary purchase price allocation for our purchase of the NSS Unit assets. The purchase price was composed of the following:

Purchase price to America Online, Inc.	$	20,345
Estimated acquisition costs		700
	$	21,045

(b) Eliminates the historical basis of the net assets acquired and records deferred revenue associated with net assets acquired which relates to our remaining service obligation to the NSS Unit customers. The historical basis is not relevant as all working capital accounts were settled in the intervening period between September 30, 2004 and December 7, 2004.

(c) Includes $14,200 of identifiable intangibles based on a preliminary calculation. Below is a detail of the amount allocated to identifiable intangibles. The allocation is preliminary, pending management’s final review of the calculation and assumptions used in the valuation and the allocation of the earn out, when and if paid to America Online, Inc.

	Value		Useful Life
Acquired Technologies
Netscape Directory Server	$	5,700	5
Certificate Management System		4,200	3
Calendar/Messaging		400	4
Total Acquired Technologies		10,300
Trademark License Agreement		200	3
Reseller Relationship		2,400	5
OEM Relationship		700	5
Customer Relationships - Other		300	3
Non-Compete Agreement		300	4
Total Identifiable Intangible Assets	$	14,200

(d) Reflects the amortization of identifiable intangible assets recorded in the acquisition. Pro forma amortization expense was based on straight-line amortization and estimated useful lives of 3-5 years for the acquired assets. Due to our new carrying value of the NSS Unit assets, historical amortization of the software costs have been eliminated in these pro forma statements.

(e) Reflects the reduction of interest income related to cash used to fund the acquisition.

(f) No additional income tax provision is required for pro forma purposes due to the valuation allowance that is currently recorded against our deferred tax asset which is significantly greater than the income generated by the NSS Unit assets.
