Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

On March 7, 2006, Evans & Sutherland Computer Corporation, a Utah corporation (the “Company”), issued a press release announcing its decision to restate previously issued financial statements to correct its accounting for certain real property leases with rent escalation provisions, which is discussed in more detail in Item 4.02 below.

A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is being furnished, not filed, under Item 2.02 of this Report on Form 8-K.

Item 4.02 Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review.

(a) In connection with the preparation of its financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2005, management of the Company determined that certain errors were made in its accounting for certain real property leases with rent escalation provisions. Under these leases, the Company’s lease payments increase by a minimum fixed percentage over specific time periods. Historically, the Company accounted for leases by recording as an expense the actual lease payments made during each period. However, under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, leases with fixed escalators should be expensed on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.

On March 3, 2006, as a result of the review of its lease accounting practices, the Company’s audit committee concluded, upon the recommendation of management and with the concurrence of KPMG LLP, its independent registered public accountants, that certain previously filed financial statements should no longer be relied upon. The Company will restate its previously filed financial statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2003 and 2004, and for the interim quarterly periods in 2004 and 2005.

Although the Company’s decision to restate its financial statements arose from the need to correct its accounting for certain leases, the Company has elected to correct at the same time other previously identified errors which were considered immaterial by the Company and its auditors at the time they were first identified. These other adjustments have already been reflected in the Company’s financial statements, but were generally recorded in subsequent periods when identified. The restatement will allocate such adjustments to the correct periods. The Company does not believe any of these changes are material.

The Company’s audit committee and management have discussed the matters set forth herein with KPMG LLP, the Company’s independent registered public accountants.
