NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
1. Business and Basis of Presentation
     Endwave Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Endwave Defense Systems Incorporated (together referred to as “Endwave” or the “Company”), design, manufacture and market radio frequency (“RF”) modules that enable the transmission, reception and processing of high frequency signals in telecommunication networks, defense electronics and homeland security systems. The Company’s RF modules are typically used in high-frequency applications and include:
  °   integrated transceivers – assembly of electronic devices that combine both the transmit and receive functions necessary for a bi-directional radio link;
 
  °   amplifiers — electronic devices used to increase the amplitude and power of an electronic signal;
 
  °   synthesizers — electronic devices that can be used to generate several different radio frequency signals from a single source;
 
  °   oscillators — electronic devices that generate radio frequency signals at a fixed frequency;
 
  °   up and down converters — electronic devices that shift the center frequency of a radio signal without altering the signal’s data modulation;
 
  °   frequency multipliers — electronic devices that increase the frequency of a radio signal in integer multiples; and
 
  °   microwave switch arrays — electronic devices that can switch the routing of a radio signal.
     The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Endwave have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not contain all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. The year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited consolidated financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. In the opinion of management, the information contained herein reflects all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the interim periods presented. Operating results for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2006 or any future periods. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2005.
     Certain prior year financial statement amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year’s presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on previously reported total assets, stockholders’ equity or net losses.
2. Short-term Investments
     The following estimated fair value amounts have been determined using available market information. However, considerable judgment is required in interpreting market data to develop the estimates of fair value. Accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that the Company could realize in a current market exchange.

     At June 30, 2006, the Company had $35.9 million of short-term investments with maturities of less than one year and a $1.0 million short-term investment with a maturity between one and two years. At December 31, 2005, the Company had $8.9 million of short-term investments with maturities of less than one year and $5.1 million of short-term investments with maturities between one and two years.
     At June 30, 2006, the Company had net unrealized losses of $68,000 related to $5.0 million of investments in debt securities. At December 31, 2005, the Company had net unrealized losses of $63,000 related to $5.1 million of investments in debt securities. The decline in value of these investments is primarily related to changes in interest rates and is considered to be temporary in nature. Realized gains and losses were insignificant for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005.
     The Company reviews its investment portfolio to identify and evaluate investments that have indications of possible impairment. Factors considered in determining whether a loss is temporary include the length of time and extent to which fair value has been less than the cost basis, credit quality and the Company’s ability to hold the investment for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in market value.
3. Inventories
     Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (determined on a first-in, first-out basis) or market and consisted of the following (in thousands):

4. Restricted Cash
     At June 30, 2006, the Company had a restricted cash balance of $261,000, which included two certificates of deposit held by a financial institution as collateral for two letters of credit in connection with the Company’s building leases. During the second quarter of 2006, the Company executed an agreement to lease 32,805 square feet in San Jose, California. The lease term is expected to commence on August 15, 2006 and is expected to terminate on August 16, 2011. In connection with the leasing of this property, the Company established a $236,000 certificate of deposit as collateral for a letter of credit. The Company will maintain a certificate of deposit for the term of the lease and will be able to reduce its restricted cash balance when it meets certain revenue levels.
     In addition, the Company has a $25,000 certificate of deposit that secures a letter of credit in connection with the Company’s building lease in Andover, Massachusetts. The $25,000 certificate of deposit will be maintained by the Company for the term of the lease, which terminates on November 30, 2008.
5. Goodwill and Intangible Assets
Goodwill
     At June 30, 2006, the Company had goodwill of $1.6 million associated with its purchase of JCA Technology, Inc. (“JCA”). The Company conducted its 2005 annual goodwill impairment analysis in the third quarter of 2005 and no goodwill impairment was indicated.

Intangible assets
  $ 4,230     $ (1,000 )   $ 3,230  
 
                 
     The identifiable intangible assets are subject to amortization and have approximate original estimated weighted-average useful lives as follows: developed technology — five years, customer backlog — six months and customer relationships — five years.
     The tradename has a gross carrying value of $1.1 million and is not subject to amortization and will be evaluated for impairment at least annually or more frequently if events and changes in circumstances suggest that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. The Company conducted its 2005 annual impairment analysis of the tradename in the third quarter of 2005 and no impairment was indicated.
     The customer backlog was fully amortized as of January 2005. The amortization of the identifiable intangible assets was $150,000 and $152,000 during the three months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The amortization of the identifiable intangible assets was $302,000 and $327,000 during the six months ended June 30,

6. Warranty
     The warranty periods for the Company’s products are between one and three years from date of shipment. The Company provides for estimated warranty expense at the time of shipment. While the Company engages in extensive product quality programs and processes, including actively monitoring and evaluating the quality of component suppliers, its warranty obligation is affected by product failure rates, material usage and service delivery costs incurred in correcting a product failure. Should actual product failure rates, material usage or service delivery costs differ from the estimates, revisions to the estimated warranty accrual and related costs may be required.
     Changes in the Company’s product warranty liability during the periods ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 were as follows (in thousands):
                 
    2006     2005

7. Restructuring Liabilities
     During the third quarter of 2004, in connection with the acquisition of JCA, the Company recorded a restructuring charge to reduce the cost structure of the combined company. During the second quarter of 2005, the Company recorded a $46,000 adjustment to reverse the remaining restructuring balance. There were no remaining obligations related to this restructuring plan as of June 30, 2005.
     During 2002, the Company implemented a restructuring program to reduce operating expenses and align resources with long-term growth opportunities. The Company recorded a restructuring charge of $3.5 million, the components of which were $1.1 million for severance and fringe benefit costs related to the elimination of 107 positions across all functions, $310,000 for lease termination payments and $2.1 million for excess equipment. At December 31, 2005, $20,000 remained in restructuring liabilities related to this restructuring program. During the first quarter of 2006, the Company paid off the remaining balance.
8. Commitments and Contingencies
     The Company is involved periodically in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business, such as worker’s compensation, accounts receivable collections and the like. While there can be no assurances as to the ultimate outcome of any litigation involving the Company, management does not believe any pending legal proceedings will result in judgment or settlement that will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
     Although we are not a party to the litigation now pending in the Southern District of New York entitled “Securities and Exchange Commission v. Wood River Capital Management, LLC et al.” filed as Civil Action 05-CV-8713, we have filed a proof of claim with the Court reserving our rights to pursue claims against the defendants in such action, including possible claims for disgorgement of profits pursuant to Section 16 of the Exchange Act. Because Wood River Capital Management, LLC and its affiliates (collectively, “Wood River”) have not yet publicly disclosed their trading history in our common stock, we are unable to determine at this time what claims exist, or what the damages for any such claims may be. To the extent we have any valid claims against Wood River, we intend to pursue them vigorously.

9. Preferred Stock and Warrant Purchase Agreement
     Effective April 24, 2006, the Company entered into a Preferred Stock and Warrant Purchase Agreement (the “purchase agreement”) with Oak Investment Partners XI, Limited Partnership (“Oak”). Pursuant to the purchase agreement, Oak purchased 300,000 shares of the Company’s Series B preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share, for $150 per preferred share. The preferred shares are convertible initially into 3,000,000 shares of common stock, for an effective purchase price of $15 per common share equivalent, an approximate 12% premium to the closing price of the Company’s common stock on April 24, 2006. The Company also issued Oak a warrant (the “Warrant”) granting Oak the right to purchase an additional 90,000 shares of Series B preferred stock at an exercise price of $150 per share, which shares are convertible initially into 900,000 shares of common stock for an effective exercise price of $15 per common share equivalent. The Warrant was sold for a purchase price of $33,750, expires three years from the date of purchase and includes a “cashless exercise” feature.
     The Company received gross proceeds of $45.0 million from the sale of the Series B preferred stock and the Warrant and net proceeds of $43.1 million after the payment of legal fees and other expenses including commissions to Needham & Co., the Company’s sole placement agent and financial advisor for the private placement. The Series B preferred stock and the Warrant were issued pursuant to an exemption from registration provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
     The Company was required to allocate the gross proceeds of the Oak financing to the shares of Series B preferred stock and the Warrant, based on the relative fair values of the securities. The Company determined the relative fair values of the securities using a valuation analysis from an independent appraiser. In order to determine the value of the Company’s Series B preferred stock and related Warrant, the appraiser used an equity allocation model based on the Black-Scholes valuation model as of the valuation date.
     The appraiser’s analysis allocated the aggregate equity value to the various securities in the Company’s capital structure in accordance with each security’s rights and privileges. The Black-Scholes valuation model is a widely accepted formula used to estimate the value of options based on variables including the time to expiration, volatility and prevailing risk-free interest rate. The appraiser’s analysis used the Black-Scholes valuation model and included the following variables: 3 years for the time to expiration, 55% volatility, 0% dividend rate and 4.97% risk-free interest rate. Through this analysis, the appraiser estimated the aggregate value of the Series B preferred stock and the Warrant on a marketable, minority interest basis to be $40.7 million and $4.3 million, respectively, for an effective conversion price of the Series B preferred stock of $13.57 per common share.
     The fair value of the common stock on the commitment date was $13.35 per share. Because the appraised conversion price of the Series B preferred stock was in excess of this amount, the issuance of the Series B preferred stock and Warrant did not result in a deemed dividend and beneficial conversion feature in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force No. 00-27, “Application of Issue No. 98-5 to Certain Convertible Instruments.”
     The Series B preferred stock ranks senior and prior to the Company’s common stock and all other classes or series of capital stock with respect to the payment of any dividends, conversion rights and any payment upon liquidation or redemption. Upon any liquidation, certain mergers, reorganizations and/or consolidations of the Company into or with another corporation or any transaction or series of related transactions in which a person, entity or group acquires 50% or more of the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding securities (approved by the Company’s Board of Directors), the holders are entitled to receive prior and in preference to any distribution to holders of the Company’s common stock or any other class or series of stock subordinate in liquidation preference to the Series B preferred stock, the amount invested plus all accumulated or accrued and unpaid dividends thereon. The holders of the Series B preferred stock are entitled to vote on all matters submitted to a vote of the holders of the Company’s common stock on an as if converted to common stock basis. So long as at least 150,000 shares of Series B preferred stock are outstanding, the holders of Series B preferred stock, voting separately as a series, shall be entitled to elect one member of the Company’s Board of Directors. Additionally, holders of the Series B preferred stock are entitled to participate in dividends declared with respect to the common stock as if the Series B preferred stock was converted into common stock.

10. Stock-Based Compensation
     Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123 (revised 2004) “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS No. 123(R)”). SFAS No. 123(R) establishes accounting for stock-based awards exchanged for employee services. Accordingly, stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized as expense over the requisite service period. All of the Company’s stock compensation is accounted for as an equity instrument. The Company previously applied Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and related interpretations and provided the required pro forma disclosures of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation”.
Prior to the Adoption of SFAS No. 123(R)
     Prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R), the Company provided the disclosures required under SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” as amended by SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation — Transition and Disclosures.”
     The pro-forma information for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 was as follows (in thousands, except per share data):
                 
    Three months ended     Six months ended  
    June 30, 2005     June 30, 2005

     The Company elected to adopt the modified prospective application method as provided by SFAS No. 123(R). The effect of recording stock-based compensation for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 was as follows (in thousands, except per share data):

     As of January 1, 2006, the Company had an unrecorded deferred stock-based compensation balance related to stock options of approximately $2.9 million before estimated forfeitures. In the Company’s pro forma disclosures prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R), the Company accounted for forfeitures upon occurrence. SFAS No. 123(R) requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised if necessary in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. Based on the Company’s historical experience of option pre-vesting

cancellations and estimates of future forfeiture rates, the Company has assumed an annualized forfeiture rate of 15% for its options. Accordingly, as of January 1, 2006, the Company estimated that the stock-based compensation for the awards not expected to vest was approximately $0.8 million, and therefore, the unrecorded deferred stock-based compensation balance related to stock options was adjusted to approximately $2.1 million after estimated forfeitures.
     During the three months ended June 30, 2006, the Company granted options to purchase 35,800 shares of its common stock with an estimated total grant date fair value of $323,000. Of this amount, the Company estimated that the stock-based compensation for the awards not expected to vest was $65,000. During the three months ended June 30, 2006, the Company recorded stock-based compensation related to stock options and its employee stock purchase plan of $972,000. Approximately $5,000 of such stock-based compensation was capitalized as inventory during the three months ended June 30, 2006. The Company elected not to capitalize any stock-based compensation to inventory at January 1, 2006 when the provisions of SFAS No. 123(R) were initially adopted.
     During the six months ended June 30, 2006, the Company granted options to purchase 541,200 stock options of its common stock with an estimated total grant date fair value of $3.5 million. Of this amount, the Company estimated that the stock-based compensation for the awards not expected to vest was $998,000. During the six months ended June 30, 2006, the Company recorded stock-based compensation related to stock options and its employee stock purchase plan of $1,686,000. Approximately $19,000 of such stock-based compensation was capitalized as inventory during the six months ended June 30, 2006
     As of June 30, 2006, the unrecorded deferred stock-based compensation balance related to stock options was $3.1 million and will be recognized over an estimated weighted average amortization period of 1.4 years.
Valuation Assumptions
     The Company estimates the fair value of stock options using the Black-Scholes valuation model, consistent with the provisions of SFAS No. 123(R), Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 and the Company’s prior period pro forma disclosures of net loss, including stock-based compensation (determined under a fair value method as prescribed by SFAS No. 123).
     The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option valuation model and the graded-vesting method with the following weighted-average assumptions:
                                 
    Three months ended   Six months ended
    June 30,   June 30,
    2006   2005   2006   2005
Risk-free interest rate
    4.97 %     3.87 %     4.61 %     4.84 %
Expected life of options
  4.6 years   5.0 years   4.6 years   5.0 years
Expected dividends
    0.0 %     0.0 %     0.0 %     0.0 %
Volatility
    70 %     70 %     80 %     74 %
     The fair value of shares purchased under the stock purchase plan is estimated using the Black-Scholes option valuation model and the graded-vesting method with the following weighted-average assumptions:
                                 
    Three months ended   Six months ended
    June 30,   June 30,
    2006   2005   2006   2005
Risk-free interest rate
    5.0 %     3.18 %     4.85 %     2.97 %
Expected life of options
  1.3 years   0.5 year   0.8 years   0.5 year
Expected dividends
    0.0 %     0.0 %     0.0 %     0.0 %
Volatility
    51 %     39 %     61 %     37 %
     The dividend yield of zero is based on the fact that the Company has never paid cash dividends and has no present intention to pay cash dividends. Expected volatility is based on the combination of historical volatility of the Company’s common stock and the common stock of eight of the Company’s competitors, the expected moderation in future volatility over the period commensurate with the expected life of the options and other factors. The risk-free

interest rates are taken from the Daily Federal Yield Curve Rates as of the grant dates as published by the Federal Reserve and represent the yields on actively traded Treasury securities for terms equal to the expected term of the options. The expected term calculation is based on the terms utilized by eight of the Company’s competitors, observed historical option exercise behavior and post-vesting forfeitures of options by the Company’s employees.
     The weighted-average grant date fair value of the options granted under the Company’s stock option plans was $9.02 and $12.28 per share for the three months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the three months ended June 30, 2006 was $157,000.
     The weighted-average grant date fair value of the options granted under the Company’s stock option plans was $6.45 and $11.69 per share for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the six months ended June 30, 2006 was $260,000.
Equity Incentive Program
     The Company’s equity incentive program is a broad-based, long-term retention program designed to align stockholder and employee interests. Under the Company’s equity incentive program, stock options generally have a vesting period of four years, are exercisable for a period not to exceed ten years from the date of issuance and are generally granted at prices not less than the fair market value of the Company’s common stock at the grant date.
     The following table summarizes activity under the equity incentive plans for the indicated periods:

Employee Stock Purchase Plan
     In October 2000, the Company established the Endwave Corporation Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“Purchase Plan”). All employees who work a minimum of 20 hours per week and are customarily employed by the Company (or an affiliate thereof) for at least five months per calendar year are eligible to participate. Under this plan, employees may purchase shares of common stock through payroll deductions of up to 15% of their earnings with a limit of 3,000 shares per offering period under the plan. The price paid for the Company’s common stock purchased under the plan is equal to 85% of the lower of the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of commencement of participation by an employee in an offering under the plan or the date of purchase. During the three months and six months ended June 30, 2006, the compensation cost in connection with the purchase plan was $134,000 and $216,000, respectively. During the second quarter of 2006, there were 41,522 shares issued under the Purchase Plan at a weighted average price of $9.14 per share. At June 30, 2006, 216,771 shares were available for purchase under the Purchase Plan.
11. Net Loss Per Share
     Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed giving effect to all potentially dilutive common stock equivalents, including convertible preferred stock, warrants to purchase convertible preferred stock, stock options to purchase common stock, and shares to be purchased in connection with the Company’s stock purchase plan.
     The shares used in the computation of the Company’s basic and diluted net income (loss) per common share were as follows:
                                 
    Three months ended June 30,     Six months ended June 30  
    2006     2005     2006     2005  
Weighted average common shares outstanding
    11,410,087       10,659,553       11,387,384       10,589,105  
Dilutive effect of employee stock options
          1,040,096              
 
                       
Diluted average common shares outstanding
    11,410,087       11,699,649       11,387,384       10,589,105  
 
                       
     Diluted average common shares outstanding include the incremental shares that would be issued upon the assumed exercise of stock options.
     Options to purchase 1,769,712 shares of common stock were outstanding at June 30, 2006 but were not included in the computation of diluted net loss per share for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2006 as the effect would be anti-dilutive. Options to purchase 1,603,625 shares of common stock were outstanding at June 30, 2005 but were not included in the computation of diluted net loss per share for the six months ended June 30, 2005 as the effect would be anti-dilutive.
     Shares associated with common stock issuable on the conversion of the Company’s Series B preferred stock and the Warrants were not included in the calculation of diluted net loss per share for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2006 as the effect would be anti-dilutive. The 300,000 preferred shares are convertible initially into 3,000,000 shares of common stock. The Warrant grants the holder the right to purchase an additional 90,000 shares of Series B preferred stock, which would at this time be convertible initially into 900,000 shares of common stock.

12. Comprehensive Loss
     Comprehensive loss generally represents all changes in stockholders’ equity except those resulting from investments or contributions by stockholders. The Company’s unrealized gains and losses on its available-for-sale securities represent the only component of comprehensive loss excluded from the reported net income (loss).
     The Company’s unrealized gain (loss) on available-for-sale securities of $1,000 and ($3,000) for the three months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, was excluded from the net income (loss) for the respective periods. Total comprehensive income (loss) for the three months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 was ($206,000) and $315,000, respectively.
     The Company’s unrealized gain (loss) on available-for-sale securities of ($5,000) and $15,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, was excluded from the net loss for the respective periods. Total comprehensive loss for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 was $1.4 million and $514,000, respectively.
13. Segment Disclosures
     The Company operates in a single segment. The Company’s product sales by geographic area (based on ship-to location of customer which may not necessarily be the end-user location) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 were as follows (in thousands and as a percentage of total revenues):

     Prior to December 2005, Northrop Grumman Corporation was considered a related party. During December 2005, a subsidiary of Northrop Grumman Corporation sold all of the remaining shares of the Company’s common stock that it owned and as a result, Northrop Grumman Corporation ceased to be considered a related party at that time. The Company continues to maintain a supply agreement and a technology services agreement with Velocium, a business unit of Northrop Grumman Space Mission & Systems Corp. and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Northrop Grumman Corporation.

15. Recent Accounting Pronouncements
     In February 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 155, “Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments,” (“SFAS 155”) an amendment of FASB Statements No. 133 and 140. SFAS 155 will be effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2007. SFAS 155 permits interests in hybrid financial instruments that contain an embedded derivative that would otherwise require bifurcation, to be accounted for as a single financial instrument at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in earnings. This election is permitted on an instrument-by-instrument basis for all hybrid financial instruments held, obtained, or issued as of the adoption date. The Company is assessing the impact of the adoption of SFAS 155.
     In June 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48 “Accounting For Uncertain Tax Positions – An Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements in accordance with FASB Statement No. 109 “Accounting for Income Taxes”. It prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of FIN 48 to its financial position and results of operations.

Overview
     Revenues for the second quarter of 2006 were $16.3 million, representing an increase of $4.1 million, or 33%, from the second quarter of 2005, and an increase of $2.6 million, or 19%, from the first quarter of 2006. Revenues for the first half of 2006 were $30.1 million, representing an increase of $8.7 million, or 41%, from the first half of 2005. The growth in revenues was due primarily to increased demand from our telecommunications customers. Based on our knowledge of our customers and overall market trends we anticipate total revenues for 2006 to exceed the total revenues we achieved in 2005. However, because the markets we serve are difficult to predict and the economic recovery has been inconsistent, we cannot assure you that our expectations regarding fiscal 2006 revenues will be realized.
     We continue to seek growth through enhancing our position as a leading merchant supplier of radio frequency (“RF”) modules, continued expansion into the defense electronics and homeland security markets, and strategic acquisitions. As part of this growth strategy, we entered into a Preferred Stock and Warrant Purchase Agreement with Oak Investment Partners XI, Limited Partnership on April 24, 2006. Pursuant to this agreement, Oak purchased 300,000 shares of our Series B preferred stock for $150 per share and a warrant to purchase up to an additional 90,000 shares of our Series B preferred stock with an exercise price of $150 per share. The Company received gross proceeds of $45.0 million and net proceeds of $43.1 million after the payment of legal fees and other expenses including commissions to Needham & Co., the Company’s sole placement agent and financial advisor for the private placement. Each share of Series B preferred stock is convertible into ten shares of our common stock. The Series B preferred stock and the warrant were issued pursuant to an exemption from registration provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act, as amended. We intend to use the net proceeds of this financing to continue to expand our business in the telecommunications and defense and homeland security markets.

Development fees
  $     $ 356             $ 593     $ 484       22.5 %
     Total revenues consist of product revenues and development fees. Product revenues are attributable to sales of our RF modules. We generate development fees by developing product prototypes and custom products pursuant to development agreements that provide for payment of a portion of our research and development or other expenses. We expect to enter into more development contracts in the future as we seek to further penetrate the defense electronics market, where development contracts are customary, but we do not expect development fees to represent a significant percentage of our total revenues for the foreseeable future.
     During the three months ended June 30, 2006, total revenues increased by 33% compared to the same period in 2005. This increase in total revenues was due to a 48% increase in revenues from our telecommunications network customers which was offset in part by a 21% decline in revenues from our defense and homeland security customers. During the six months ended June 30, 2006, total revenues increased by 41% compared to the same period in 2005. This increase in total revenues was due to a 47% increase in revenues from our telecommunications network customers and a 17% increase in revenue from our defense and homeland security customers.
     For the three months ended June 30, 2006, revenues from our defense electronics and homeland security customers comprised 13% of our total revenues and revenues from our telecommunication customers comprised 87% of our total revenues. For the six months ended June 30, 2006, revenues from our defense electronics and homeland security customers comprised 17% of our total revenues and revenues from our telecommunication customers comprised 83% of our total revenues.
     Revenues under development contracts are generally recorded on a percentage of completion basis, using project hours as the basis to measure progress toward completing the contract and recognizing revenues. Up-front fees, if any, associated with development agreements are recognized over the estimated development and production periods. In no event are revenues recognized prior to being considered collectible from the customer. During the second quarter of 2006, we did not recognize any revenues from development fees.

     Cost of product revenues consists primarily of: costs of direct materials and labor utilized to assemble and test our products; equipment depreciation; costs associated with procurement, production control, quality assurance, and manufacturing engineering; costs associated with maintaining our manufacturing facilities; fees paid to our offshore manufacturing partner; reserves for potential excess or obsolete material; and accrued costs associated with potential warranty returns offset by the benefit of usage of materials that were previously written off.
     During the second quarter of 2006, the cost of product revenues as a percentage of revenues increased as compared to the same quarter of 2005 due primarily to the product mix as well as $126,000 in additional costs resulting from the adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS 123(R)”), which was partially offset by the increased absorption of our overhead costs resulting from increased total revenues. The cost of product revenues in both periods was favorably impacted by the utilization of inventory that was previously written off, amounting to approximately $129,000 during the second quarter of 2006 and $95,000 during the second quarter of 2005.
     During the first half of 2006, the cost of product revenues as a percentage of revenues increased due primarily to the product mix as well as $214,000 in additional costs resulting from the adoption of SFAS 123(R), which was partially offset by the increased absorption of our overhead costs resulting from increased total revenues. The cost of product revenues in both periods was favorably impacted by the utilization of inventory that was previously written off, amounting to approximately $329,000 during the first half of 2006 and $290,000 during the first half of 2005.
     We intend to continue to focus on reducing the cost of product revenues as a percentage of total revenues through the introduction of new designs and technology and further improvements to our offshore manufacturing processes. In addition, our product costs are impacted by the mix and volume of products sold and will continue to fluctuate as a result. We will continue to incur costs of product revenues associated with SFAS 123(R).

     Research and development expenses consist primarily of salaries and related expenses for research and development personnel, outside professional services, prototype materials, supplies and labor, depreciation for related equipment and allocated facilities costs.
     During the three months ended June 30, 2006, research and development costs declined as a percentage of total revenues compared to the same period in 2005 due to our overall growth in revenues during the second quarter of 2006. The increase in research and development costs in absolute dollars was primarily attributable to an increase of $304,000 in project-related expenses, an increase of $232,000 of personnel-related expenses and $160,000 from the adoption of SFAS 123(R) which were partially offset by lower outside professional services and other expenses.
     During the first half of 2006, research and development costs declined as a percentage of total revenues compared to the same period in 2005 due to our overall growth in revenues during the first half of 2006. The increase in research and development costs in absolute dollars was primarily attributable to an increase of $672,000 in project-related expenses, an increase of $459,000 of personnel-related expenses and $280,000 from the adoption of SFAS123(R) which were partially offset by lower outside professional services and other expenses.
     During the remainder of 2006, we expect moderate increases in research and development expenses as we continue to work on certain development programs and continue to build our technical team. We will continue to incur research and development expenses associated with SFAS 123(R).

     During the second quarter of 2006, selling, general and administrative expenses increased in absolute dollars and as a percentage of total revenues, primarily due to $686,000 of increased costs from the adoption SFAS 123(R) and $168,000 increase in commissions due to the overall increase in revenues during the second quarter of 2006.
     During the first half of 2006, selling, general and administrative expenses declined as a percentage of total revenues primarily due to the benefit of increased overall revenues in the first half of 2006 compared to the same period in 2005. The increase in absolute dollars is primarily attributable to $1.2 million of increased costs from the adoption SFAS 123(R) and $298,000 increase in commissions due to the overall increase in revenues during the first half of 2006.
     During the remainder of 2006, we anticipate selling, general and administrative expenses will remain relatively stable in absolute dollar terms. We will continue to incur selling, general and administrative expenses associated with SFAS 123(R).

     As part of our acquisition of JCA Technology, Inc. in July 2004, we acquired $4.2 million of identifiable intangible assets, including $2.3 million for developed technology, $1.1 million for the tradename, $780,000 for customer relationships and $140,000 for customer backlog. These assets are subject to amortization and have approximate original estimated weighted-average useful lives as follows: developed technology — 5 years, customer backlog — 6 months and customer relationships — 5 years. The tradename intangible asset is not subject to amortization and will be evaluated for impairment at least annually or more frequently if events and changes in circumstances suggest that the carrying amount may not be recoverable.
     The amortization associated with the developed technology is a charge to cost of product revenues. The amortization associated with the developed technology was $111,000 for the second quarter of 2006 and $113,000 for the second quarter of 2005. The amortization associated with the customer backlog and the customer relationships is a charge to operating expenses. The customer backlog was fully amortized during the first quarter of 2005. The amortization of customer relationships was $39,000 for both the second quarter of 2006 and 2005.
     During the first half of 2006, the amortization associated with the developed technology was $224,000 compared to $226,000 during the first half of 2005. The amortization of customer relationships was $78,000 for the first half of 2006 compared to $101,000 during the same period of 2005.

The increase in interest and other income, net during both the three and six months ended June 30, 2006 was primarily the result of increased interest earned on a higher cash and investment balance due to the proceeds received from the sale of preferred stock and warrants to Oak during the second quarter of 2006.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
     At June 30, 2006 we had $30.1 million of cash and cash equivalents and $36.9 million in short-term investments, working capital of $80.5 million and no long-term or short-term debt outstanding. The following table sets forth selected consolidated statement of cash flows data:

     During the first six months of 2006, operating activities provided $2.3 million of cash as compared to using $4.4 million in the first half of 2005. Our net loss, adjusted for depreciation and other non-cash items, contributed $1.1 million of cash in the first half of 2006 as compared to $518,000 in first half of 2005. During the first half of 2006, the remaining $1.2 million of cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to a $3.3 million increase in accounts payable, which was partially offset by a $1.4 million increase in accounts receivable, a $209,000 decrease in accrued warranty and a $572,000 decrease in accrued compensation and other current and long-term liabilities. During the first half of 2005, the remaining use of $4.9 million of cash was primarily due to an $8.0 million increase in inventory and a $347,000 decrease in accrued warranty, which were offset partially by a $3.2 million increase in accounts payable, a $303,000 decrease in accounts receivable and a $275,000 increase in accrued compensation and other current and long-term liabilities.
     Investing activities used cash of $24.3 million in the first half of 2006 as compared to providing cash of $6.6 million in the first half of 2005. The use of cash during the first half of 2006 was due to a net increase of $23.0 million of short-term investments, a $1.1 million purchase of property and equipment and a $236,000 increase in restricted cash. The provision of cash from investing activities during the first half of 2005 was primarily due to a net decrease of short-term investments by $6.7 million.
     Financing activities provided cash of $43.6 in the first half of 2006 as compared to $1.4 million in the first half of 2005. During the second quarter of 2006, we generated $43.1 million in net proceeds from the sale of 300,000 shares of Series B preferred stock and a warrant to purchase 90,000 shares of Series B preferred stock to Oak. In addition to the proceeds received from Oak, during the first half of 2006 we received $379,000 from the sale of common stock under our stock purchase plan and $129,000 from the exercise of stock options. During the first half of 2005, the $1.4 million increase in cash was due to $230,000 from the sale of common stock under our stock purchase plan and $1.2 million from the exercise of stock options.

     We believe that our existing cash and investment balances will be sufficient to meet our operating and capital requirements for the next 12 months and the foreseeable future thereafter. With the exception of operating leases summarized below, we have not entered into any off-balance sheet financing arrangements, we have not established or invested in any variable interest entities, we do not have any unconditional purchase obligations, nor do we have non-cancelable commitments for capital expenditures. We have not guaranteed the debt or obligations of other entities or entered into options on non-financial assets.
     During the second quarter of 2006, we executed an agreement to lease property in San Jose, California. The lease term is expected to commence on August 15, 2006 and is expected to terminate on August 16, 2011.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
     In February 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 155, “Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments,” (“SFAS 155”) an amendment of FASB Statements No. 133 and 140. SFAS 155 will be effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2007. SFAS 155 permits interests in hybrid financial instruments that contain an embedded derivative that would otherwise require bifurcation, to be accounted for as a single financial instrument at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in earnings. This election is permitted on an instrument-by-instrument basis for all hybrid financial instruments held, obtained, or issued as of the adoption date. The Company is assessing the impact of the adoption of SFAS 155.
     In June 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48 “Accounting For Uncertain Tax Positions – An Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements in accordance with FASB Statement No. 109 “Accounting for Income Taxes”. It prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of FIN 48 to its financial position and results of operations.

     Item 3. Qualitative and Quantitative Disclosures about Market Risk
     There have been no material changes in our reported market risks since our report on market risks in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005 under the heading corresponding to that set forth above. Our exposure to market risk is limited to interest income sensitivity, which is affected by changes in the general level of U.S. interest rates, as our investments in cash equivalents include investment grade commercial paper and government securities. We place our investments with high-quality issuers and attempt to limit when possible the amount of credit exposure to any one issuer. Due to the nature of our short-term investments, we do not believe we are subject to any material market risk exposure. We do not have any material equity investments or foreign currency or other derivative financial instruments.
     Item 4. Controls and Procedures
(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.
     Based on their evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.
     Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, and our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer have concluded that these controls and procedures are effective at the “reasonable assurance” level. We believe that a control system, no matter how well designed and operated, cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the control system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected.
(b) Changes in internal controls over financial reporting.
     There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

     We are not currently party to any material litigation.
     Although we are not a party to the litigation now pending in the Southern District of New York entitled “Securities and Exchange Commission v. Wood River Capital Management, LLC et al.” filed as Civil Action 05-CV-8713, we have filed a proof of claim with the Court reserving our rights to pursue claims against the defendants in such action, including possible claims for disgorgement of profits pursuant to Section 16 of the Exchange Act. Because Wood River has not yet publicly disclosed its trading history in our common stock, we are unable to determine at this time what claims exist, or what the damages for any such claims may be. To the extent we have any valid claims against Wood River, we intend to pursue them vigorously.
     Item 1A. Risk Factors
     You should consider carefully the following risk factors as well as other information in this report before investing in any of our securities. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business, operating results and financial condition could be adversely affected. This could cause the market price of our common stock to decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.
  **   Indicates risk factor has been updated since our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005.
Risks Relating to Our Business
We have had a history of losses and may not be profitable in the future. **
     We have had a history of losses. We had a net loss of $1.4 million during the first half of 2006. We also had net losses of $874,000, $4.4 and $7.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively. There is no guarantee that we will achieve or maintain profitability in the future.
We depend on a small number of key customers in the telecommunications industry for a large portion of our revenues. If we lose any of our major customers, particularly Nera, Nokia or Siemens or there is any material reduction in orders for our products from any of these customers, our business, financial condition and results of operations would be adversely affected. **
     We depend, and expect to continue to depend, on a relatively small number of telecommunication network original equipment manufacturers and systems integrators, collectively referred to in this report as telecom OEMs, for a large portion of our revenues. The loss of any of our major customers, particularly Nera, Nokia or Siemens, or any material reduction in orders from any of such customers would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In the first half of 2006, and in fiscal 2005 and 2004, revenues from Nokia accounted for approximately 32%, 47%, and 55% of our total revenues, respectively. Revenues from Siemens accounted for 31% in the first half of 2006 and 16% of our total revenues for 2005. Revenues from Nera ASA accounted for 13% in the first half of 2006 and 10% of our total revenues for 2005 and 2004. We had no other customers individually representing more than 10% of our total revenues for the first half of 2006, for fiscal 2005 or for fiscal 2004. Most of our customer agreements are in the form of purchase orders and are not pursuant to a formal agreement. As a result, none of our major customers is under any long-term commitment to purchase products from us, and there is no guarantee that any of them will continue to do business with us.
     In the second quarter of 2006, Nokia and Siemens announced a joint venture to merge the Networks Business Group of Nokia and the carrier-related operations of Siemens into a new company, Nokia Siemens Networks. If the merger is completed, it will result in further concentration of our customer base.

We depend on the telecommunications industry for most of our revenues. If this industry suffers another downturn or fails to grow as anticipated, our revenues could decrease and our profitability could suffer. In addition, consolidation in this industry could result in delays or cancellations of orders for our products, adversely impacting our results of operations.**
     We depend, and expect to remain dependent, on the telecommunications industry for most of our revenues. Revenues from all of our telecom OEM customers comprised 83% of our total revenues in the first half of 2006 and 80% of our total revenues in 2005.
     The telecommunications industry suffered a significant worldwide downturn beginning in 2000, and has only recently begun to grow again. In connection with this downturn, there were worldwide reductions in telecommunication network projects that resulted in the loss of some of our key customers and reduced revenues from our remaining customers. We also were forced to undertake significant cost reduction measures as a result. The telecommunications industry has only recently begun to grow again, but at a more measured rate than previously. Our revenues are dependent, in part, on growth of wireless telephony particularly in developing countries, increasing data-intensive cellular traffic, deployment of third-generation, or “3G”, networks and the introduction of other high capacity data-only telecommunication networks. If similar downturns reoccur, or if the telecommunications industry fails to grow as we anticipate, our revenues may remain flat or decrease. Significantly lower revenues would likely force us to make provisions for excess inventory and abandoned or obsolete equipment and reduce our operating expenses. To reduce our operating expenses, we could be required to reduce the size of our workforce and consolidate facilities. We cannot guarantee that we would be able to reduce operating expenses to a level commensurate with the lower revenues resulting from such an industry downturn.
     The telecommunications industry has undergone significant consolidation in the past few years and we expect that consolidation to continue. The acquisition of one of our major customers in this market, or one of the communications service providers supplied by one of our major customers, could result in delays or cancellations of orders of our products and, accordingly, delays or reductions in our anticipated revenues and reduced profitability or increased net losses.
Our future success depends in part on our ability to further penetrate into new markets, such as defense electronics and homeland security, and we may be unable to do so.
     Historically, all or a large majority of our revenues have been attributable to sales of our RF modules to telecom OEMs such as Nokia. Part of our growth strategy is to design and sell high-frequency RF modules for and to OEMs and systems integrators in new markets, particularly defense electronics and homeland security. To date, only a modest percentage of our revenues have been attributable to sales of RF modules to defense systems integrators. We have only recently begun to design and sell products for the recently emerging homeland security market. The potential size of this market is unclear and we cannot predict how the market will evolve. If increased demand for high-frequency RF modules in the defense electronics and homeland security markets does not materialize, we fail to secure new design wins in these markets or we are unable to design readily manufacturable products for these new markets, our growth and revenues could be adversely impacted, thereby decreasing our profitability or increasing our net losses.
Our operating results may fluctuate significantly based on seasonal factors in the telecommunication network market. **
     In the past, our operating results have reflected lower revenues in the first and third calendar quarters due to seasonality in the telecommunication network market. Revenues attributable to telecom OEMs typically have contracted in the first quarter due to delays in purchasing resulting from wireless carriers’ budgeting processes. The third quarter generally has been slow in our telecommunication network market as many of our European telecom OEM customers shut down their factories for a portion of the summer months. The fourth quarter historically has been our strongest quarter as the wireless carriers expend their remaining capital budgets for the year. However, we did not experience this seasonality in 2005 or in the first half of 2006, and we cannot be certain what seasonal factors, if any, will impact our revenues in the future or the extent of such potential fluctuations.

Because of the shortages of some components and our dependence on single source suppliers and custom components, we may be unable to obtain an adequate supply of components of sufficient quality in a timely fashion, or we may be required to pay higher prices or to purchase components of lesser quality.**
     Many of our products are customized and must be qualified with our customers. This means that we cannot change components in our products easily without the risks and delays associated with requalification. Accordingly, while a number of the components we use in our products are made by multiple suppliers, we may effectively have single source suppliers for some of these components.
     In addition, we currently purchase a number of components, some from single source suppliers, including, but not limited to:
    semiconductor devices;
 
    application-specific monolithic microwave integrated circuits;
 
    voltage-controlled oscillators;
 
    voltage regulators;
 
    RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive) surface mount components;
 
    high-frequency circuit boards;
 
    custom connectors;
 
    electromagnetic housings;
 
    yttrium iron garnet components; and
 
    magnetic components.
     Any delay or interruption in the supply of these or other components could impair our ability to manufacture and deliver our products, harm our reputation and cause a reduction in our revenues. In addition, any increase in the cost of the components that we use in our products could make our products less competitive and lower our margins. During 2005, we suffered from shortages of and quality issues with various components, including voltage-controlled oscillators, voltage regulators, metal enclosures and certain high-frequency circuit boards. These shortages and quality issues adversely impacted our product revenues throughout the year and could continue to do so in the future. Our single source suppliers could enter into exclusive agreements with or be acquired by one of our competitors, increase their prices, refuse to sell their products to us, discontinue products or go out of business. Even to the extent alternative suppliers are available to us and their components are qualified with our customers on a timely basis, identifying them and entering into arrangements with them may be difficult and time consuming, and they may not meet our quality standards. We may not be able to obtain sufficient quantities of required components on the same or substantially the same terms.
Our cash requirements will be impacted by our need to increase inventories.
     As part of our expansion in the telecommunications market and our increased emphasis on the defense electronics and homeland security markets, we increased the number of our products by over three times during the past fiscal year. The products we manufacture require hundreds to thousands of components obtained from a wide variety of suppliers and we have faced component shortages and quality issues from our suppliers. In addition, in order to maintain and enhance our competitive position, we must be able to satisfy our customers’ rapidly-changing needs. As a result of these challenges, we have significantly increased our raw materials inventory and added more finished products to our key customers’ consignment stocks so that they will be better-positioned to meet their own customers’ demand. These increases in raw materials and finished goods have significantly increased our working capital needs and may further increase our capital needs in the future.

We rely heavily on a Thailand facility of HANA Microelectronics Co., Ltd., a contract manufacturer, to produce our RF modules. If HANA is unable to produce these modules in sufficient quantities or with adequate quality, or it chooses to terminate our manufacturing arrangement, we will be forced to find an alternative manufacturer and may not be able to fulfill our production commitments to our customers, which could cause sales to be delayed or lost and could harm our reputation.**
     We outsource the assembly and testing of most of our telecommunication related products to a Thailand facility of HANA Microelectronics Co., Ltd., or HANA, a contract manufacturer. We plan to continue this arrangement as a key element of our operating strategy. If HANA does not provide us with high quality products and services in a timely manner, or terminates its relationship with us, we may be unable to obtain a satisfactory replacement to fulfill customer orders on a timely basis. In the event of an interruption of supply from HANA, sales of our products could be delayed or lost and our reputation could be harmed. Our manufacturing agreement with HANA currently expires in July 2007 but will renew automatically for successive one-year periods unless either party notifies the other of its desire to terminate the agreement at least 90 days prior to the expiration of the term. In addition, either party may terminate the agreement without cause upon 120 days prior written notice to the other party, and either party may terminate the agreement if the non-terminating party is in breach and does not cure the breach within 30 days after notice of the breach is given by the terminating party. There can be no guarantee that HANA will not seek to terminate its agreement with us.
We rely on Velocium and other third-party semiconductor foundries to manufacture the semiconductors contained in our products. The loss of our relationship with any of these foundries, particularly Velocium, without adequate notice would adversely impact our ability to fill customer orders and could damage our customer relationships.**
     We design semiconductor devices. However, we do not own or operate a semiconductor fabrication facility, or foundry, and rely on a limited number of third parties to produce these components. Our largest semiconductor foundry supplier is Velocium, a business unit of Northrop Grumman Space & Mission Systems Corp. Velocium produced over 65 percent of our semiconductors in 2005, with the balance provided by other suppliers. The loss of our relationship with or our access to any of the semiconductor foundries we currently use, particularly Velocium, and any resulting delay or reduction in the supply of semiconductor devices to us, would severely impact our ability to fulfill customer orders and could damage our relationships with our customers.
     We may not be successful in forming alternative supply arrangements that provide us with a sufficient supply of gallium arsenide devices. Because there are a limited number of semiconductor foundries that use the particular process technologies we select for our products and that have sufficient capacity to meet our needs, using alternative or additional semiconductor foundries would require an extensive qualification process that could prevent or delay product shipments and revenues. We estimate that it may take up to six months to shift production of a given semiconductor circuit design to a new foundry.
Implementing our acquisition strategy could result in dilution to our stockholders and operating difficulties leading to a decline in revenues and operating profit.**
     One of our strategies is to grow through acquisitions. To that end, we have completed five acquisitions since our initial public offering and intend to pursue acquisitions in our markets as appropriate. The process of investigating, acquiring and integrating any business into our business and operations is risky and may create unforeseen operating difficulties and expenditures. The areas in which we may face difficulties include:
    diversion of our management from the operation of our core business;
 
    assimilating the acquired operations and personnel;
 
    integrating information technology and reporting systems;
 
    retention of key personnel;

27


Table of Contents

    retention of acquired customers; and
 
    implementation of controls, procedures and policies in the acquired business.
     For example, it took us longer to integrate JCA Technology into our operations at our Diamond Springs facilities than we originally anticipated. Additionally, the JCA Technology acquisition required us to devote efforts to standardize the product design and manufacturing process to reduce dependence on specific personnel. As a result of these difficulties, our ability to deliver our defense electronics products to our customers in a timely manner was temporarily adversely affected.
     In addition to the factors set forth above, we may encounter other unforeseen problems with acquisitions that we may not be able to overcome. Future acquisitions may require us to issue shares of our stock or other securities that dilute our other stockholders, expend cash, incur debt, assume liabilities, including contingent or unknown liabilities, or create additional expenses related to write-offs or amortization of intangible assets with estimated useful lives, any of which could materially adversely affect our revenues and our operating profits.
Our products may contain component, manufacturing or design defects or may not meet our customers’ performance criteria, which could cause us to incur significant repair expenses, harm our customer relationships and industry reputation, and reduce our revenues and profitability.**
     We have experienced manufacturing quality problems with our products in the past and may have similar problems in the future. As a result of these problems, we have replaced components in some products, or replaced the product, in accordance with our product warranties. Our product warranties typically last one to two years. As a result of component, manufacturing or design defects, we may be required to repair or replace a substantial number of products under our product warranties, incurring significant expenses as a result. Further, our customers may discover latent defects in our products that were not apparent when the warranty period expired. These defects may cause us to incur significant repair or replacement expenses beyond the normal warranty period. In addition, any component, manufacturing or design defect could cause us to lose customers or revenues or damage our customer relationships and industry reputation.
     For example, some radios incorporating our transceivers that are manufactured and shipped by one of our customers have experienced degraded performance after installation in the field. The cause of the degradation was identified to be a faulty semiconductor component originally developed and supplied by TRW Inc. that was incorporated in the transceiver. TRW was later acquired by Northrop Grumman Corporation and renamed Northrop Grumman Space & Mission Systems Corp. Pursuant to a settlement agreement between TRW and us, we are responsible for the direct costs associated with the repair and replacement of the degraded transceivers produced under our supply agreement with the customer. Northrop Grumman Space & Mission Systems Corp., as successor to TRW, compensated our customer for the indirect costs associated with the repair and replacement of the degraded radios and transceivers. These indirect costs include the costs associated with removing and replacing the radios in the field as well as removing and replacing the transceiver module in each returned radio. During 2001, we reserved $4.6 million for warranty charges to cover the actual repair of the transceivers containing these faulty components, of which $2.8 million had been used or reversed through June 30, 2006.
We depend on our key personnel. Skilled personnel in our industry can be in short supply. If we are unable to retain our current personnel or hire additional qualified personnel, our ability to develop and successfully market our products would be harmed.
     We believe that our future success depends upon our ability to attract, integrate and retain highly skilled managerial, research and development, manufacturing and sales and marketing personnel. Skilled personnel in our industry can be in short supply. As a result, our employees are highly sought after by competing companies and our ability to attract skilled personnel is limited. To attract and retain qualified personnel, we may be required to grant large stock option or other stock-based incentive awards, which may harm our operating results or be dilutive to our other stockholders. We may also be required to pay significant base salaries and cash bonuses, which could harm our operating results.

     Due to our relatively small number of employees and the limited number of individuals with the skill set needed to work in our industry, we are particularly dependent on the continued employment of our senior management team and other key personnel. If one or more members of our senior management team or other key personnel were unable or unwilling to continue in their present positions, these persons would be very difficult to replace, and our ability to conduct our business successfully could be seriously harmed. We do not maintain key person life insurance policies.
Competitive conditions may require us to reduce prices in the future and, as a result, we may need to reduce our costs in order to be profitable.**
     Over the past year, we have reduced our prices by 10% to 15% in order to remain competitive and we expect market conditions will cause us to reduce our prices in the future. In order to reduce our per-unit cost of product revenues, we must continue to design and re-design products to require lower cost materials, improve our manufacturing efficiencies and successfully move production to low-cost, offshore locations. The combined effects of these actions may be insufficient to achieve the cost reductions needed to maintain or increase our gross margins or achieve profitability.
The length of our sales cycle requires us to invest substantial financial and technical resources in a potential sale before we know whether the sale will occur. There is no guarantee that the sale will ever occur and if we are unsuccessful in designing a high-frequency RF module for a particular generation of a customer’s products, we may need to wait until the next generation of that product to sell our products to that particular customer.
     Our products are highly technical and the sales cycle can be long. Our sales efforts involve a collaborative and iterative process with our customers to determine their specific requirements either in order to design an appropriate solution or to transfer the product efficiently to our offshore contract manufacturer. Depending on the product and market, the sales cycle can take anywhere from 2 to 24 months, and we incur significant expenses as part of this process without any assurance of resulting revenues. We generate revenues only if our product is selected for incorporation into a customer’s system and that system is accepted in the marketplace. If our product is not selected, or the customer’s development program is discontinued, we generally will not have an opportunity to sell our product to that customer until that customer develops a new generation of its system. There is no guarantee that our product will be selected for that new generation of its system. In the past, we have had difficulty meeting some of our major customers’ stated volume and cost requirements. The length of our product development and sales cycle makes us particularly vulnerable to the loss of a significant customer or a significant reduction in orders by a customer because we may be unable to quickly replace the lost or reduced sales.
We may not be able to design our products as quickly as our customers require, which could cause us to lose sales and may harm our reputation.
     Existing and potential customers typically demand that we design products for them under difficult time constraints. In the current market environment, the need to respond quickly is particularly important. If we are unable to commit the necessary resources to complete a project for a potential customer within the requested timeframe, we may lose a potential sale. Our ability to design products within the time constraints demanded by a customer will depend on the number of product design professionals who are available to focus on that customer’s project and the availability of professionals with the requisite level of expertise is limited.
     Each of our telecommunication network products is designed for a specific range of frequencies. Because different national governments license different portions of the frequency spectrum for the telecommunication network market, and because communications service providers license specific frequencies as they become available, in order to remain competitive we must adapt our products rapidly to use a wide range of different frequencies. This may require the design of products at a number of different frequencies simultaneously. This design process can be difficult and time consuming, could increase our costs and could cause delays in the delivery of products to our customers, which may harm our reputation and delay or cause us to lose revenues.
     In our other markets, our customers have specific requirements that can be at the forefront of technological development and therefore difficult and expensive to develop. If we are not able to devote sufficient resources to these products, or we experience development difficulties or delays, we could lose sales and damage our reputation with those customers.

We may not be able to manufacture and deliver our products as quickly as our customers require, which could cause us to lose sales and would harm our reputation.
     We may not be able to manufacture products and deliver them to our customers at the times and in the volumes they require. Manufacturing delays and interruptions can occur for many reasons, including, but not limited to:
    the failure of a supplier to deliver needed components on a timely basis or with acceptable quality;
 
    lack of sufficient capacity;
 
    poor manufacturing yields;
 
    equipment failures;
 
    manufacturing personnel shortages;
 
    labor disputes;
 
    transportation disruptions;
 
    changes in import/export regulations;
 
    infrastructure failures at the facilities of our offshore contract manufacturer;
 
    natural disasters;
 
    acts of terrorism; and
 
    political instability.
     Manufacturing our products is complex. The yield, or percentage of products manufactured that conform to required specifications, can decrease for many reasons, including materials containing impurities, equipment not functioning in accordance with requirements or human error. If our yield is lower than we expect, we may not be able to deliver products on time. For example, in the past, we have on occasion experienced poor yields on certain products that have prevented us from delivering products on time and have resulted in lost sales. If we fail to manufacture and deliver products in a timely fashion, our reputation may be harmed, we may jeopardize existing orders and lose potential future sales, and we may be forced to pay penalties to our customers.
     As part of our strategy, we may expand our domestic manufacturing capacity beyond the level required for our current sales in order to accommodate anticipated increases in our defense electronics business. As a result, our domestic manufacturing facilities may be underutilized from time to time. Conversely, if we do not maintain adequate manufacturing capacity to meet demand for our defense electronic products, we may lose opportunities for additional sales. Any failure to have sufficient manufacturing capacity to meet demand could cause us to lose revenues, thereby reducing our profitability, or increasing our net losses, and could harm our reputation with customers.
Because we do not have long-term commitments from many of our customers, we must estimate customer demand, and errors in our estimates could have negative effects on our inventory levels, revenues and results of operations.
     Our sales are generally made on the basis of formal agreements and purchase orders, which may be later modified or canceled by the customer, rather than firm long-term purchase commitments. We have historically been required to place firm orders for products and manufacturing equipment with our suppliers up to six months prior to

30


Table of Contents

the anticipated delivery date and, on occasion, prior to receiving an order for the product, based on our forecasts of customer demands. Our sales process requires us to make multiple demand forecast assumptions, each of which may introduce error into our estimates, causing excess inventory to accumulate or a lack of manufacturing capacity when needed. If we overestimate customer demand, we may allocate resources to manufacturing products that we may not be able to sell when we expect or at all. As a result, we would have excess inventory, which would harm our financial results. Conversely, if we underestimate customer demand or if insufficient manufacturing capacity were available, we would lose revenue opportunities, market share and damage our customer relationships. On occasion, we have been unable to adequately respond to unexpected increases in customer purchase orders and were unable to benefit from this increased demand. There is no guarantee that we will be able to adequately respond to unexpected increases in customer purchase orders in the future, in which case we may lose the revenues associated with those additional purchase orders and our customer relationships and reputation may suffer.
Some of our customer contracts require us to manufacture products designed by our customers. While we intend to convert many of these products to products of our own design, such transitions may be difficult and/or expensive to implement and delays or difficulties in doing so could harm our operating results.
     Some of our customer contracts are based on the transfer of product manufacturing from our customers’ factories to those of our contract manufacturer, HANA. Under these contracts, we may be required to manufacture the products in a manner similar to the way our customers previously manufactured them until we are able to convert these products to products of our own design. The objective of converting a product to one of our own design is to improve manufacturability and lower costs, thereby improving our gross margins. If we encounter difficulties or delays in transitioning a customer’s product to our manufacturing process, revenues attributable to that product could be delayed or lost. The cost of manufacturing a customer-designed product is typically higher than the cost of manufacturing a product of our own design. In the short term, while we are manufacturing a customer-designed product, our gross margins will be adversely impacted. Similarly, difficulties and delays in transitioning a product to a product of our own design will result in reduced profitability over the long-term.
Any failure to protect our intellectual property appropriately could reduce or eliminate any competitive advantage we have.**
     Our success depends, in part, on our ability to protect our intellectual property. We rely primarily on a combination of patent, copyright, trademark and trade secret laws to protect our proprietary technologies and processes. As of June 30, 2006, we had 39 United States patents issued, many with associated foreign filings and patents. Our issued patents include those relating to basic circuit and device designs, semiconductors, MLMS technology and system designs. Our issued United States patents expire between 2007 and 2020. We maintain a vigorous technology development program that routinely generates potentially patentable intellectual property. Our decision as to whether to seek formal patent protection is done on a patent by patent basis and is based on the economic value of the intellectual property, the anticipated strength of the resulting patent, the cost of pursuing the patent and an assessment of using a patent as a strategy to protect the intellectual property.
     To protect our intellectual property, we enter into confidentiality and assignment of rights to inventions agreements with our employees, and confidentiality and non-disclosure agreements with third parties, and generally control access to and distribution of our documentation and other proprietary information. These measures may not be adequate in all cases to safeguard the proprietary technology underlying our products. It may be possible for a third party to copy or otherwise obtain and use our products or technology without authorization, develop similar technology independently or design around our patents. In addition, effective patent, copyright, trademark and trade secret protection may be unavailable or limited outside of the United States, Europe and Japan. We may not be able to obtain any meaningful intellectual property protection in other countries and territories. Additionally, we may, for a variety of reasons, decide not to file for patent, copyright, or trademark protection outside of the United States. We occasionally agree to incorporate a customer’s or supplier’s intellectual property into our designs, in which case we have obligations with respect to the non-use and non-disclosure of that intellectual property. We also license technology from other companies, including Northrop Grumman Corporation. There are no limitations on our rights to make, use or sell products we may develop in the future using the technology licensed to us by Northrop Grumman Corporation, provided that the products are for commercial customers and non-satellite applications. Steps taken by us to prevent misappropriation or infringement of our intellectual property or the intellectual property of our customers may not be successful. Moreover, litigation may be necessary in the future to enforce our

31


Table of Contents

intellectual property rights, to protect our trade secrets or to determine the validity and scope of proprietary rights of others, including our customers. Litigation of this type could result in substantial costs and diversion of our resources.
     We may receive in the future, notices of claims of infringement of other parties’ proprietary rights. In addition, the invalidity of our patents may be asserted or prosecuted against us. Furthermore, in a patent or trade secret action, we could be required to withdraw the product or products as to which infringement was claimed from the market or redesign products offered for sale or under development. We have also at times agreed to indemnification obligations in favor of our customers and other third parties that could be triggered upon an allegation or finding of our infringement of other parties’ proprietary rights. These indemnification obligations would be triggered for reasons including our sale or supply to a customer or other third parties of a product which was later discovered to infringe upon another party’s proprietary rights. Irrespective of the validity or successful assertion of such claims we would likely incur significant costs and diversion of our resources with respect to the defense of such claims. To address any potential claims or actions asserted against us, we may seek to obtain a license under a third party’s intellectual property rights. However, in such an instance, a license may not be available on commercially reasonable terms, if at all.
     With regard to our pending patent applications, it is possible that no patents may be issued as a result of these or any future applications or the allowed patent claims may be of reduced value and importance. If they are issued, any patent claims allowed may not be sufficiently broad to protect our technology. Further, any existing or future patents may be challenged, invalidated or circumvented thus reducing or eliminating their commercial value. The failure of any patents to provide protection to our technology might make it easier for our competitors to offer similar products and use similar manufacturing techniques.
Risks Relating to Our Industry
We have increased our focus on sales to the United States government and other governmental agencies. Our revenues in this market largely depend upon the funding and implementation decisions of Congress and government agencies. These decisions could change abruptly and without notice, unexpectedly reducing our current or future revenues in this market. Development fees in this market can fluctuate. **
     Our growth is partially dependent on growth in sales to defense electronics and homeland security prime contractors as a first-tier subcontractor. Government appropriations and prime contractor reactions to changing levels of contract funding availability can cause re-programming of first-tier subcontractor requirements by prime contractors in a way that reduces our current revenues or future revenue forecasts. These funding and implementation decisions are difficult to predict and may change abruptly. As such, our quarterly revenues from these customers may fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter. Additionally, if these funding and implementation decisions change in a manner unfavorable to us, we could find that previously expected and forecasted revenues do not materialize at all.
     In this market, we generate development fees by developing product prototypes and custom products pursuant to development agreements that provide for payment of a portion of our research and development or other expenses. Revenues under development contracts are generally recorded on a percentage of completion basis, using project hours as the basis to measure progress toward completing the contract and recognizing revenues. Up-front fees, if any, associated with development agreements are recognized over the estimated development and production periods, but in no event prior to becoming payable by the customer. In no event are revenues recognized prior to becoming payable by the customer. These development fees can cause our revenue levels to fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter.
Our failure to compete effectively could reduce our revenues and margins.**
     Among merchant suppliers in the telecommunication network market, we primarily compete with Compel Electronics Inc., Filtronics plc, Linkra Srl, Microelectronics Technology Inc., Remec Broadband Wireless, Inc., Teledyne Technologies Incorporated, Thales Group SA and Xytrans Inc. In addition to these companies, there are telecom OEMs, such as Ericsson and NEC Corporation, that use their own captive resources for the design and manufacture of their high-frequency RF transceiver modules, rather than use merchant suppliers like us. We believe

32


Table of Contents

that over one half of the high-frequency RF transceiver modules manufactured today are being produced by these captive resources. To the extent that telecom OEMs presently, or may in the future, produce their own RF transceiver modules, we lose the opportunity to gain a customer and the potential related sales. Further, if a telecom OEM were to sell its captive operation to a competitor, we would lose the opportunity to acquire those potential sales. In the defense electronics and homeland security markets, we primarily compete with Aeroflex Incorporated, AML Communications Inc., Chelton, Ltd., Ciao Wireless, CTT Inc., Herley Industries, Inc., KMIC Technology, Inc., M/A-Com, Miteq, Inc. and Teledyne Technologies Incorporated.
     Many of our current and potential competitors are substantially larger than us and have greater financial, technical, manufacturing and marketing resources. In addition, we have only recently begun to design and sell products for homeland security applications as the market for homeland security is only now emerging. If we were unable to compete successfully, our future operations and financial results would be harmed.
Our failure to comply with any applicable environmental regulations could result in a range of consequences, including fines, suspension of production, excess inventory, sales limitations and criminal and civil liabilities.
     Due to environmental concerns, the need for lead-free solutions in electronic components and systems is receiving increasing attention within the electronics industry as companies are moving towards becoming compliant with the Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive, or RoHS Directive. The RoHS Directive is European legislation that restricts the use of a number of substances, including lead, effective July 2006. We believe that our products will be compliant with the RoHS Directive and that materials will be available to meet these emerging regulations. However, it is possible that unanticipated supply shortages or delays or excess non-compliant inventory may occur as a result of these new regulations. Failure to comply with any applicable environmental regulations could result in a range of consequences, including loss of sales, fines, suspension of production, excess inventory, and criminal and civil liabilities.
Government regulation of the communications industry could limit the growth of the markets that we serve or could require costly alterations of our current or future products.
     The markets that we serve are highly regulated. Communications service providers must obtain regulatory approvals to operate broadband wireless access networks within specified licensed bands of the frequency spectrum. Further, the Federal Communications Commission and foreign regulatory agencies have adopted regulations that impose stringent RF emissions standards on the communications industry. In response to the new environmental regulations on health and safety in Europe and China, we are required to design and build a lead-free product. Changes to these regulations may require that we alter the performance of our products.
Risks Relating to Ownership of Our Stock
The assets of Wood River Capital Management, LLC and certain of its affiliates, the holders of shares of common stock representing approximately 27% of our outstanding capital stock as of June 30, 2006, have been placed into receivership by the Securities and Exchange Commission, and the receiver may dispose of such shares of our common stock. Such disposition may adversely affect the trading price of our common stock.**
     Based on filings made with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as of June 30, 2006, Wood River Capital Management, LLC and certain of its affiliates, which we refer to collectively as Wood River, owned approximately 27% of our outstanding capital stock (measured on an as-converted to common stock basis). On October 13, 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission filed an emergency action against Wood River and, concurrently with the filing of the action, an order was entered placing all assets of Wood River, including the Endwave shares owned by Wood River, into receivership. As a result, the receiver is also deemed to have beneficial ownership of such shares. The receiver will be required to liquidate the assets of Wood River or distribute such assets to the investors in the Wood River Funds. We currently do not know what the timing and manner of any liquidation or distribution of Endwave shares is likely to be, nor do we control any such liquidation or distribution. Such disposition of Endwave shares may have the effect of reducing the trading price of our common stock.

The market price of our common stock has historically fluctuated and is likely to fluctuate in the future.**
     The price of our common stock has fluctuated widely since our initial public offering in October 2000. For example, in the first half of 2006, the lowest bid price for our common stock was $8.98 and the highest bid price for our common stock was $17.15 and in 2005, the lowest bid price for our common stock was $9.46 and the highest bid price for our common stock was $55.41. The market price of our common stock can fluctuate significantly for many reasons, including, but not limited to:
    our financial performance or the performance of our competitors;
 
    the purchase or sale of common stock, or short-selling or other transactions involving our securities, particularly by Wood River or other large stockholders;
 
    technological innovations or other trends or changes in the telecommunication network, defense electronics or homeland security markets;
 
    successes or failures at significant product evaluations or site demonstrations;
 
    the introduction of new products by us or our competitors;
 
    acquisitions, strategic alliances or joint ventures involving us or our competitors;
 
    decisions by major participants in the communications industry not to purchase products from us or to pursue alternative technologies;
 
    decisions by investors to de-emphasize investment categories, groups or strategies that include our company or industry;
 
    market conditions in the industry, the financial markets and the economy as a whole; and
 
    the low trading volume of our common stock.
     It is likely that our operating results in one or more future quarters may be below the expectations of security analysts and investors. In that event, the trading price of our common stock would likely decline. In addition, the stock market has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations. These market fluctuations can be unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies and the market prices for securities of technology companies have been especially volatile. Future sales of substantial amounts of our common stock, or the perception that such sales could occur, could adversely affect prevailing market prices for our common stock. Additionally, future stock price volatility for our common stock could provoke the initiation of securities litigation, which may divert substantial management resources and have an adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition. Our existing insurance coverage may not sufficiently cover all costs and claims that could arise out of any such securities litigation. We anticipate that prices for our common stock will continue to be volatile.
There are two shareholders who own a large percentage of our outstanding capital stock and are able to affect significantly the outcome of matters requiring stockholder approval.**
     Wood River owns approximately 4.2 million shares of our outstanding common stock. In addition, Oak owns shares of our Series B preferred stock that are convertible into 3,000,000 shares of our common stock, and a warrant to purchase 90,000 shares of our Series B preferred stock that upon issuance will be convertible into 900,000 shares of our common stock. Assuming the exercise in full of the warrant issued to Oak and the conversion of Oak’s preferred shares into common stock, as of June 30, 2006 Oak owned 100% of our preferred stock and warrant which are together convertible into approximately 25% of our outstanding capital stock and Wood River owned approximately 27% of our outstanding capital stock.
     Because most matters requiring approval of our stockholders require the approval of the holders of a majority of the shares of our outstanding common stock present in person or by proxy at the meeting, the significant ownership interest of Oak and Wood River allows Oak and Wood River, and the receiver of the Wood River assets, to affect significantly the election of our directors and the outcome of corporate actions requiring stockholder approval.

concentration of ownership may also delay, deter or prevent a change in control and may make some transactions more difficult or impossible to complete without their support, even if the transaction is favorable to our stockholders as a whole.
Our certificate of incorporation, bylaws and arrangements with executive officers contain provisions that could delay or prevent a change in control.
     We are subject to certain Delaware anti-takeover laws by virtue of our status as a Delaware corporation. These laws prevent us from engaging in a merger or sale of more than 10% of our assets with any stockholder, including all affiliates and associates of any stockholder, who owns 15% or more of our outstanding voting stock, for three years following the date that the stockholder acquired 15% or more of our voting stock, unless the board of directors approved the business combination or the transaction which resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, or upon consummation of the transaction which resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, the interested stockholder owned at least 85% of our voting stock of the corporation, or the business combination is approved by our board of directors and authorized by at least 66 2/3% of our outstanding voting stock not owned by the interested stockholder. A corporation may opt out of the Delaware anti-takeover laws in its charter documents, however we have not chosen to do so. Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws include a number of provisions that may deter or impede hostile takeovers or changes of control of management, including a staggered board of directors, the elimination of the ability of our stockholders to act by written consent, discretionary authority given to our board of directors as to the issuance of preferred stock, and indemnification rights for our directors and executive officers. Additionally, during 2005, our board of directors adopted a Stockholder Rights Plan, providing for the distribution of one preferred share purchase right for each outstanding share of common stock held as of December 12, 2005, that may lead to the delay or prevention of a change in control that is not approved by our board of directors. We have an Executive Officer Severance and Retention Plan and a Key Employee Severance and Retention Plan that provide for severance payments and the acceleration of vesting of a percentage of certain stock options granted to our executive officers and certain senior, non-executive employees under specified conditions. We also have a Transaction Incentive Plan for the benefit of our executive officers and certain senior, non-executive employees that provides for bonus payments to be made to them upon a change in control transaction. These plans may make us a less attractive acquisition target or may reduce the amount a potential acquirer may otherwise be willing to pay for our company.
