Results of Operations

For the fiscal year ended January 31, 2002, our net revenues decreased 54% to $13.4 million from $29.5 million reported for fiscal 2001. This decrease in revenues was primarily attributable to the continuing slowdown of the general economic conditions, and the continuing decline in demand for our MPEG chipset and board products in PC add-in market due to the prevalence of DVD-enabling software provided as original equipment in many PCs. Even though overall total net revenues from sales of MPEG chipset and board products were significantly decreased year-over-year, revenues from sales of our new streaming video console and board products to commercial streaming video market and sales of our chipset products to consumer appliance market increased in fiscal 2002 as compared to fiscal 2001. Our revenues from sales of streaming video console and board products for the commercial steaming video market and sales of chipset products in the set top boxes for the consumer appliance market represented a relatively significant portion of our total net revenues while our revenues from sales of chipset and board products to PC add-in market represented a relatively insignificant portion of our total net revenues for fiscal 2002. The continuing decline in demand for chipsets and boards in PC add-in market, the slower than anticipated emergence of the set top box market, and delays in the deployment of streaming video applications which utilize our products may continue. Should they continue, this decline and these delays would continue to reduce our revenues and harm our business.

Net loss for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2002 was $10.4 million as compared to net loss of $6.9 million for the prior fiscal year. The net loss for fiscal 2002 was primarily caused by the decline in revenues. The net loss for fiscal 2002 included a charge of approximately $927,000 of impairment losses related to an investment of a start-up company, and a specific provision for bad debt allowance in the amount of approximately $121,000 (net of recovery $329,000) due to collectibility issues relating to one of our customers. The net loss for fiscal 2001 included a charge of $1.9 million to write down certain PC-DVD and video networking related inventories due to the decline in demand for those products, and a provision for bad debt allowance in the amount of $2.2 million due to collectibility issues relating to one of our customers and non-payment by another customer for customization services that we provided.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2001, our primary U.S. distributor contacted us to request a large and unusual product return in excess of their stock rotation rights under our distributor agreement with this distributor. Due to this distributor's prominence in the market and our desire to continue our business relationship with them, we accepted the product returns. Consequently, the distributor returned approximately $2.7 million of product during the third quarter of fiscal 2001, which we recorded as a reduction of revenue for that quarter. As a result of these significant returns, effective in the third quarter of fiscal 2001, we concluded that we no longer had a reasonable basis to estimate sales returns from this distributor and modified our policy to recognize revenue upon resale to the distributor's end-customers. Consequently, in the third quarter of fiscal 2001, we deferred revenue of $593,000, for third quarter product shipments to this distributor that had not sold thro ugh to the distributor's end-customers as of the end of that quarter. Although we had other accounts receivable from this distributor at the end of the third quarter of 2001 for products that were still in the distributor's inventory at the end of that quarter, we fully intended to exercise our collection rights on these receivables. Therefore, we did not record an additional sales return reserve at that time.

In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2001, the above-mentioned distributor contacted us again to request a product return for $1.4 million. After extensive discussions with the distributor, we agreed to the product returns. As a result of these significant returns, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2001, we recorded a sales return reserve of $887,000, which along with the $593,000 revenue deferral referred to in the previous paragraph, provided for the maximum product return exposure from this distributor at the end of fiscal 2001.

Our current agreement with this distributor, executed in the first quarter of fiscal 2002, allows for the right of return and price protection. The right of return allows our primary U.S. distributor to return any product in the original packaging for full credit up to 180 days after the earlier of the termination or early expiration of the distribution agreement in accordance with its terms.

Our board level product lines are targeted at OEM customers to address the DVD upgrade market and system integrators to address the computer-based training, kiosks, and corporate video-on-demand markets. Our chipsets are targeted toward manufacturers and large volume OEM customers building interactive multimedia products for business and consumer markets. The "other" category includes our new product, Netstream consoles for the commercial streaming video market, set-top box products and accessories targeted at the consumer internet information appliance market - a market which we entered in fiscal 2000, and development revenues under agreements for the customization of certain MPEG decoding chips. The costs related to development revenues were included in research and development expenses.

The table below sets forth our revenues by market segment for each of the last three fiscal years:

 
(Dollars in thousands)             Fiscal 2002    Fiscal 2001    Fiscal 2000

                                 =========      =========      =========

Revenues from sales to Commercial streaming video market accounted for 52% of our net revenues in fiscal 2002, 23% in fiscal 2001, and 24% in fiscal 2000. Revenues from sales to Consumer appliance market accounted for 29% of our net revenues in fiscal 2002, 9% in fiscal 2001, and 2% in fiscal 2000. PC add-in market accounted for 16% of our net revenues in fiscal 2002, 60% in fiscal 2001, and 73% in fiscal 2000. Revenues from sales to Other market accounted for 3% of our net revenues in fiscal 2002, 8% in fiscal 2001, and 1% in fiscal 2000. Revenues from sales to commercial streaming video market increased 4% to $6.9 million in fiscal 2002 from $6.7 million in fiscal 2001. Revenue from sales to consumer appliance market increased 41% to $3.9 million in fiscal 2002 from $2.8 million in fiscal 2001. Revenues from PC add-in market decreased 88% to $2.2 million in fiscal 2002 from $17.8 million in fiscal 2001. Revenues from other market decreased 82% to $0.4 million in fiscal 2002 from $2.2 million in fiscal 2001. The increase in revenues from sales of our products to commercial streaming video market in fiscal 2002 as compared to fiscal 2001 is mainly attributable to increased sales of our MPEG board products and the introduction of our new console products in corporate streaming video market. We expect our revenues from commercial streaming video market to continue to fluctuate year over year primarily due to the project-oriented nature of sales of our products to our corporate streaming video market. The increase in revenues from sales of our products to consumer appliance market in fiscal 2002 is attributable to increased sales of our MPEG chipset products to set-top box manufacturers. The consumer appliance market remains in an emerging phase and we expect fluctuating revenues to continue. The decrease in revenues from sales of our products to PC add-in market in fiscal 2002 is due to the continuing decline in demand for products in the PC add-in market. We expect our revenues from PC add-in market to be relatively insignificant in future periods as a result of our decision to focus on the video-on-demand and consumer appliance market. The category "Other market" in the above table consists of development fees under agreements relating to the development for customization of certain MPEG decoding chip technology and accessories for projects and products for various market segments. The overall decrease in net revenues from other market in fiscal 2002 as compared to fiscal 2001 is attributable to a decrease in development fees due to fewer development projects and the increasingly complex nature which requires longer development time. We expect that net revenues from other market will continue to fluctuate.

The table below sets forth our revenues by geographic region for each of the last three fiscal years:

(Dollars in thousands)             Fiscal 2002    Fiscal 2001    Fiscal 2000
                                 -------------- -------------- --------------

                                 =========      =========      =========

Our U.S. revenues as a percentage of total net revenues were 58% in fiscal 2002, 35% in 2001, and 33% in fiscal 2000. Total U.S. revenues in fiscal 2002 decreased 24% to $7.8 million, from $10.2 million in fiscal 2001. Total Asia revenues as a percentage of total revenues were 24% in fiscal 2002, 59% in fiscal 2001 and 58% in fiscal 2000. Total Asia revenues in fiscal 2002 decreased 81% to $3.2 million in fiscal 2002, from $17.3 million in fiscal 2001. Total Europe revenues as a percentage of total revenues were 18% in fiscal 2002, 5% in fiscal 2001 and 8% in fiscal 2000. Total Europe revenues in fiscal 2002 increased 53% to $2.4 million in fiscal 2002, from $1.6 million in fiscal 2001. Our Asia revenues were derived predominantly from customers in Taiwan. Revenues generated from Taiwan in fiscal 2002 accounted for 10% of our total net revenues, as compared to 19% for fiscal 2001 and 30% for fiscal 2000. Three customers based in U.S and one customer based in Europe accounted for 49% of our total net revenues in fiscal 2002, as compared to two customers based in U.S and three customers based in Asia accounting for 55% of our total net revenues in fiscal 2001 and three customers based in Asia accounting for 41% of our total net revenues in fiscal 2000. The overall year-to-year decrease in revenues from fiscal 2001 to fiscal 2002 was primarily attributable to the global economic downturn and the continuing decline in demand of our PC-DVD upgrade products in the PC market.

Gross Margin

Our gross margin as a percentage of net revenues was approximately 41% in fiscal 2002, 30% in fiscal 2001, and 31% in fiscal 2000. Excluding development revenues of $0.4 million, the gross margin was approximately 39% in fiscal 2002. This increase was a result of increased sales of our products to streaming video market and chipset products to the set top box consumer appliance market which have relatively high gross margins and the decreased sales of our products to PC add-in market which have relatively low gross margins. We expect our gross margins will vary from period to period due to changes in the mix of product sales and provisions for inventory obsolescent.

Operating Expenses

Sales and marketing expenses increased $166,000 or 4% in fiscal 2002 over fiscal 2001. This increase was largely due to increased headcount and expenses associated the expansion of our product marketing and sales development group. The same expenses decreased $338,000, or 8%, in fiscal 2001 over fiscal 2000. The decrease was the result of a reduction of our business development group personnel, an elimination of outside public relations services, and reduced sales commissions in connection with reduced revenues. We believe that our sales and marketing expenses will increase in future periods as we intend to increase headcount in our sales and marketing organization and to expand our product marketing and sales development.

Research and development expenses increased $739,000 or 10% in fiscal 2002 over fiscal 2001 and $987,000, or 15% in fiscal 2001 over fiscal 2000. The increase in fiscal 2002 over fiscal 2001 was primarily attributable to additional engineering staff at our headquarters as well as at our development center in France, consulting services, and capital equipment related to product development. The increase in fiscal 2001 was largely due to increases in technical development support, and the research and development center established in France during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2000. We expect to continue our efforts in the development of our proprietary MPEG based products, and research and development expenses will likely increase accordingly year-over-year.

Our general and administrative expenses decreased $1.8 million or 39% in fiscal 2002 from fiscal 2001. The decrease was mainly attributable to the significant reduction of approximately $2.2 million of bad debt expense from last fiscal year. Excluding the specific provision for bad debt of approximately $121,000 (net of recovery $329,000) and $1.9 million respectively, in fiscal 2002 and 2001, general and administrative expenses in fiscal 2002 was comparable to fiscal 2001. The same expense increased $1.6 million or 57% in fiscal 2001 from fiscal 2000. Excluding provision for bad debt of approximately $1.9 million in fiscal 2001, general and administrative expenses decreased $293,000 or 10% as compared to fiscal 2000. The decrease was largely due to the refund by our insurance company of costs previously expensed related to a shareholder lawsuit resolved in fiscal 2001 and reduction of legal expenses in general. We expect our general and administrative expenses will increase relatively in future periods due to the continually increasing cost of insurance, professional services and other expenditures associated with our business.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of January 31, 2002, our principal sources of liquidity included cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, and short-term investments of $18.0 million, a decrease of $4.3 million compared with $22.3 million at January 31, 2001. This decrease resulted from operating activities that utilized cash of approximately $3.8 million, acquisition of fixed assets of $172,000, repayment of capital lease obligations of $321,000 and cash used for other investing activities of $118,000 which was partially offset by proceeds of $100,000 from the issuance of our common stock under our stock option plan and employee stock purchase plan.

As of January 31, 2002, we had $12.0 million outstanding under a $12.0 million bank revolving line of credit that expires in October 2002, bears interest at the U.S treasury bill rate (1.48% at January 31, 2002) plus 0.85%, and is collateralized by funds on deposit in accounts that have been assigned to the lender and is included in our consolidated balance sheet at January 31, 2002 as restricted cash. We also have a $6.0 million bank line of credit available that expires in October 2002 and is collateralized by our accounts receivable, inventories, equipment, and intangibles. As of January 31, 2002, we had utilized $178,000 of the standby letter of credit under this second line of credit. The lines of credit contain certain covenants that, among other things, required us to maintain certain levels of tangible net worth plus subordinated debt based on our projected operating results. At January 31, 2002, we were required to maintain total net equity worth of at least $11.5 million. As of that date, we were not in compliance with this covenant and subsequently obtained a modification to amend this covenant to $10.5 million.

Our primary sources of funds to date have been cash generated from operations, proceeds from preferred and common stock issuances, capital lease arrangements, and bank borrowings under lines of credit. It is likely that our operation will continue to consume cash in the foreseeable future. Based on our cash projection, we believe that our current reserve of cash and cash equivalents and short- term investments will be sufficient to meet anticipated working capital requirements and other cash needs for the next twelve months. In addition, we believe that we will be able to comply with or make modifications to the current covenants to maintain the availability of funds under our existing asset-based banking agreements. To insure that we have adequate working capital, we intend to raise additional funding through either public or private offerings of our common or preferred stock or from additional bank financing during the next twelve months. There is no assurance that such capital will be available to us. The estimate of time our cash and other resources will last is a forward-looking statement that is subject to the risks and uncertainties set forth below, as well as other factors, and actual results may differ as a result of such factors.

Factors Affecting Future Operating Results

Our annual and quarterly results have in the past and may in the future vary significantly due to a number of factors, including but not limited to new product introductions by us and our competitors; the ability of our REALmagic MPEG silicon to compete with other technologies in these merging markets; market acceptance of the technology embodied in our products generally and our products in particular; customer acceptance of our products; shifts in demand for the technology embodied in our products generally and our products in particular and/or those of our competitors; gains or losses of significant customers; reduction in average selling prices and gross margins, which may occur either gradually or precipitously; inventory obsolescence; write-downs of accounts receivable; an interrupted or inadequate supply of semiconductor chips or other materials-for example, our source of supply for silicon wafers was interrupted in fiscal 2000, and may continue to be interrupted in the future because of earthquakes in Taiwan; our inability to protect our intellectual property; loss of key personnel; technical problems in the development, ramp up, and manufacture of products causing shipping delays; and availability of third-party manufacturing capacity for production of certain of our products. We derive a substantial portion of our revenues from sales to the Asia Pacific region, a region of the world that is subject to increased economic instability. There can be no assurance that such instability will not have a material adverse effect on our future international revenues. Any adverse change in the foregoing or other factors could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Due to the factors noted above, our future earnings and stock price may be subject to significant volatility, particularly on a quarterly basis. Past financial performance should not be considered a reliable indicator of future performance, and investors should not use historical trends to anticipate results or trends of future periods. Any shortfall in revenue or earnings could have an immediate and significant adverse effect on the trading price of our common stock. Additionally, we may not learn of such shortfall until late in a fiscal quarter, which could result in even more immediate and adverse effect on the trading price of our common stock. Further, we operate in a highly dynamic industry, which often results in volatility of our common stock price.

Critical Accounting Policies

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expense during the reporting period. On an on-going basis, management evaluates its estimates and judgments, including those related to revenue recognition, accounts receivable, and inventories. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Revenue Recognition - Revenues consist of product and development revenue. Revenues from product sales to OEMs, distributors and end users are generally recognized upon shipment, as our shipping terms are FOB shipping point, except that revenues are deferred when the Company cannot reasonably estimate the amount of returns or where collectibility is not assured. In those situations, revenue is recognized when collection subsequently becomes probable and returns are estimable, generally upon resale by distributors to end-customers. Allowances for sales returns, price protection and warranty costs are recorded at the time that revenues are recognized. As further discussed under the caption "Net Revenues" in this Item 7, in fiscal 2001, we began recognizing revenue from our primary U.S. distributor upon resale to end-customers. This practice resulted from significant sales returns, which we accepted from the distributor outside of the terms of our prior distribution agreemen t. Under terms of the current distribution agreement entered into with the distributor in fiscal 2002, the Company has granted the distributor the right of return and price protection, which allows the distributor to return any product, which is in the original packaging, for full credit up to 180 days after the earlier of the agreement expiration or early termination. The price protection provision allows the distributor to receive a credit for the difference between the original price and the reduced price of our products within their inventory. Although returns have not been frequent, we have not been reasonably able to estimate returns from this distributor regarding our video networking products. Consequently, pursuant to our above policy, revenue from this distributor is recognized upon resale to the distributor's end-customers.

Revenues from product development agreements are recognized using the percentage of completion method. Estimates are reviewed and revised periodically throughout the lives of the contracts. Any revisions are recorded in the accounting period in which the need for revisions becomes evident. The Company classifies all development costs related to such agreements as research and development expenses. Development revenues were $406,000, $1,852,000, and $60,000 for fiscal 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively.

Accounts Receivable - During industry downturns, certain of our customers have difficulty with their cash flows. For certain customers, typically those with whom we have long-term relationships, may delay their payments by 40-60 days beyong the original terms. We review the ability of our customers to pay the indebtedness they incur with us. We defer recognition of revenue and related receivable when we cannot reasonably estimate collectibility is assured at the time products and services are delivered to our customer. We provide an allowance for doubtful accounts for all specific receivables that we judge to be unlikely for collection. In addition, we record a reserve based on the size and age of all receivable balances against which we have not established a specific reserves. These estimated allowances are periodically reviewed, analyzing the customer's payment history and information regarding customer's credit worthiness known to us. In fiscal 2002 and 2001, we recorded a provision for general and specific bad debt allowance in the total amount of $121,000 (net of recovery of $329,000) and $2.2 million respectively.

Inventories - With the dramatic decrease in revenue during fiscal 2002 and 2001, we continue to monitor our inventory levels in light of product development changes and expectations of an eventual market upturn. We may be required to take additional charges for excess and obsolete inventories if the current industry downturn extends further into the future than we have currently estimated or we make changes in our current product development plans. We estimate inventory reserves for excess and obsolete inventories based on our assessments of future product sales giving considerations for factors such as the cyclical nature of our industry. These forecasts require us to estimate our ability to see demand for current and further products and compare those estimates with our current inventory levels. If these forecasts or estimates change adversely, or our product roadmaps change, then we would need to further write down inventory.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

On July 20, 2001, the Financial Accounting Stanford Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, "Business Combinations", or SFAS No. 141, and SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets". SFAS No. 141 requires that all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 be accounted for under the purchase method and addresses the initial recognition and measurement of goodwill and other intangible assets acquired in a business combination. SFAS No. 142 addresses the initial recognition and measurement of intangible assets acquired outside of a business combination and the accounting for goodwill and other intangible assets subsequent to the acquisition. SFAS No. 142 provides that intangible assets with finite useful lives be amortized. However, goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives will no longer be amortized, but will be tested at least annually for impairment. The Company is required to adopt SFAS No. 142 effective February 1, 2002 and does not expect the effect of adoption to have a material impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In October 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for Impairment of Long-Lived Assets." SFAS No. 144 supersedes SFAS No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of", and addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets. This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. The Company is required to adopt SFAS No. 144 on February 1, 2002. The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of
Sigma Designs, Inc.:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Sigma Designs, Inc. and subsidiaries as of January 31, 2002 and 2001, and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders' equity and comprehensive income (loss) and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended January 31, 2002. Our audits also include the financial statement schedule listed in Item 14(a)2. These financial statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial statement schedule based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Sigma Designs, Inc. and subsidiaries at January 31, 2002 and 2001, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended January 31, 2002 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also, in our opinion, such financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein.

SIGMA DESIGNS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
YEARS ENDED JANUARY 31, 2002, 2001 AND 2000

1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Nature of Operations - Sigma Designs, Inc. (the Company) develops, manufactures and markets multimedia computer devices and products. The Company sells its products to computer manufacturers, distributors, value-added resellers and corporate customers.

Principle of Consolidation - The consolidated financial statements include Sigma Designs, Inc. and subsidiaries. Intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated.

Accounting Period - The Company's fiscal year ends on the Saturday closest to January 31. For convenience, the financial statements are shown as ending January 31, although the fiscal years ended on February 2, 2002, February 3, 2001, and January 29, 2000, respectively. Fiscal 2001 included 53 weeks, and fiscal 2002 and 2000 each included 52 weeks.

Pervasiveness of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Concentration of Credit Risk - Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and accounts receivable. The majority of the Company's cash and cash equivalents are on deposit with one financial institution. The Company's short-term investments are managed by a major domestic financial institution, in a portfolio with defined investment objectives of competitive money market returns, high liquidity and safety of capital. Its portfolio of short-term investments typically includes United States government obligations and corporate obligations. From time to time, the Company also makes investments in certificates of deposit with financial institutions, outside of its third-party managed portfolio. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and generally does not require collateral for sales on credit. The Company maintains reserves for potential credit losses.

Cash and Cash Equivalents - The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a remaining maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Short-Term Investments - The Company's short-term investments represent debt securities which are stated at fair value. All short-term investments are classified as available-for-sale. Any temporary difference between an investment's cost and its market value is recorded as a separate component of shareholders' equity until such gains and losses are realized. Available-for-sale securities are classified in the balance sheet based on management's current intended use for the securities. Gains and losses on the sale of securities are computed using the specific identification method.

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first- out) or market.

Restricted Cash represents funds on deposit in accounts which have been assigned to the Company's lender under a bank line of credit (see note 6).

Investments in private equity securities of less than 20% owned companies are accounted for using the cost method unless the Company can exercise significant influence or the investee is economically dependent upon the Company, in which case the equity method is used. Included in other income (expense) for fiscal 2002 is a $927,000 charge related to impairment of an investment accounted for under the cost method.

Equipment is stated at cost. Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method based on the useful lives of the assets (three to five years) or the lease term if shorter.

Long Lived Assets - The Company evaluates long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.

Revenue Recognition - Revenues consist of product and development revenue. Revenues from product sales to OEMs, distributors and end users are generally recognized upon shipment, as our shipping terms are FOB shipping point, except that revenues are deferred when the Company cannot reasonably estimate the amount of returns or where collectibility is not assured. In those situations, revenue is recognized when collection subsequently becomes probable and returns are estimable, generally upon resale by distributors to end-customers. Allowances for sales returns, price protection and warranty costs are recorded at the time that revenues are recognized. In the third quarter of fiscal 2001, we began recognizing revenue from our primary U.S. distributor upon resale to end-customers. This practice resulted from significant sales returns, which we accepted from the distributor outside of the terms of our prior distribution agreement. Under terms of the current distribution agreement entered int o with the distributor in fiscal 2002, the Company has granted the distributor the right of return and price protection, which allows the distributor to return any product, which is in the original packaging, for full credit up to 180 days after the earlier of the agreement expiration or early termination. The price protection provision allows the distributor to receive a credit for the difference between the original price and the reduced price of our products within their inventory. Although returns have not been frequent , we have not been reasonably able to estimate returns from this distributor regarding our video networking products. Consequently, pursuant to our above policy, revenue from this distributor is recognized upon resale to the distributor's end-customers.

Revenues from product development agreements are recognized using the percentage of completion method. Estimates are reviewed and revised periodically throughout the lives of the contracts. Any revisions are recorded in the accounting period in which the need for revisions becomes evident. The Company classifies all development costs related to such agreements as research and development expenses. Development revenues were $406,000, $1,852,000, and $60,000 for fiscal 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively.

Research and Development expenses include costs and expenses associated with the design and development of new products. To the extent that such costs include the development of computer software, they are generally incurred prior to the establishment of the technological feasibility of the related product that is under development. Accordingly, software costs incurred after the establishment of technological feasibility have not been material and therefore have been expensed. All other research and development is expensed as incurred.

Income Taxes - Deferred income taxes are provided for temporary differences between financial statement and income tax reporting. Income taxes are accounted for under an asset and liability approach. Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for future taxable amounts and deferred tax assets are recognized for future deductions net of a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to amounts that are more likely than not to be realized.

Stock-Based Compensation - The Company accounts for stock-based awards to employees using the intrinsic value method in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion ("APB") No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees", and all of its interpretations and presents pro forma disclosures required by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation."

The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to non-employees in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 123 which requires that the fair value of such instruments be recognized as an expense over the period in which the related services are received.

Foreign Currency - The functional currency of the Company's foreign subsidiaries is the local currency of each country. Accordingly, gains and losses from the translation of the financial statements of the foreign subsidiaries are included in shareholders' equity. Transaction gains and losses, which are included in the other income (expenses) in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations, have not been significant for all years presented.

Net Income (Loss) per Share - Basic earnings per share (EPS) excludes dilution and is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that would occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock (see Note 7).

Fair Value of Financial Instruments - The Company believes that carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, investments and line of credit borrowings as of January 31, 2002 approximate fair market value.

Geographic Operating Information - SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information," provides annual and interim reporting standards for an enterprise's business segments and related disclosures about its products, services, geographical areas and major customers. The Company operates in one reportable segment (Note 12).

Derivatives - In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or the FASB, issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities". This statement requires companies to record derivatives on the balance sheet as assets and liabilities, measured at fair value. Gains and losses resulting from changes in the fair market values of those derivative instruments would be accounted for depending on the use of the instrument and whether it qualifies for hedge accounting. The Company adopted SFAS No. 133, as amended, on February 1, 2001. The adoption of this statement did not have an effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows as the Company had no derivative financial instruments as of January 31, 2002 and historically has not entered into any derivative transactions.

As a matter of policy, the Company does not currently enter into transactions involving derivative financial instruments. In the event the Company enters into such transactions in the future, the Company will account for those transactions in accordance with SFAS No. 133, in which case the Company will formally document all relationships between the hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as its risk management objective and strategy for undertaking such hedge transactions.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements - On July 20, 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141, "Business Combinations", and SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets". SFAS No. 141 requires that all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 be accounted for under the purchase method and addresses the initial recognition and measurement of goodwill and other intangible assets acquired in a business combination. SFAS No. 142 addresses the initial recognition and measurement of intangible assets acquired outside of a business combination and the accounting for goodwill and other intangible assets subsequent to the acquisition. SFAS No. 142 provides that intangible assets with finite useful lives be amortized. However, goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives will no longer be amortized, but will be tested at least annually for impairment. The Company is required to adopt SFAS No. 142 effective February 1, 2002 and does not expect the effect of adoption to have a material impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In October 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for Impairment of Long-Lived Assets." SFAS No. 144 supersedes SFAS No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long- Lived Assets to be Disposed Of", and addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets. This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. The Company is required to adopt SFAS No. 144 on February 1, 2002. The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

2. SHORT-TERM INVESTMENTS

Short-term investments included the following securities and gross unrealized losses and gains as of January 31, 2002 and 2001 (in thousands). Fair values are based on quoted market prices obtained from the Company's broker. All of the Company's short-term investments are classified as available for sale, since the Company intends to sell them as needed for operations. All of the Company's short-term investments mature in fiscal 2003.

6. BANK LINES OF CREDIT

The Company has $12,000,000 outstanding at January 31, 2002 under a $12,000,000 bank line of credit that expires in October 2002, bears interest at the U.S. Treasury Bill rate (1.48% at January 31, 2002) plus 0.85%, and is collateralized by funds on deposit in accounts which have been assigned to the lender and included in the Company's consolidated balance sheet as of January 31, 2002 as restricted cash.

The Company also has a $6,000,000 bank line of credit that expires in October 2002, and is collateralized by the Company's accounts receivable, inventories, equipment and intangibles. The Company has $178,000 of standby letters of credit outstanding as of January 31, 2002 under the same bank line of credit. Borrowings under this line of credit are generally limited to maximum 70% of eligible accounts receivable (as defined). Availability to utilize this $6,000,000 bank line of credit is dependent on the Company's ability to maintain compliance with covenants under the amended bank line of credit agreement.

The line of credit agreement contains certain covenants that, among other things, require the Company to maintain certain levels of tangible net worth plus subordinated debt (Tangible Net Worth). At January 31, 2002, the Company was required to maintain Tangible Net Worth of at least $11,500,000 and was not in compliance with this covenant. In April 2002, the Company obtained a modification to the line of credit agreement to amend this covenant to $10,500,000.

The Company excluded certain potentially dilutive securities in fiscal 2002 and 2001 from its dilutive EPS computation because either the exercise price of the securities exceeded the average fair values of the Company's common stock or the Company had net losses, and, therefore, these securities were antidilutive.

A summary of the excluded potential dilutive securities as of the end of each fiscal year follows (in thousands):

Stock Option Plan

During fiscal 2002, the Company adopted the 2001 employee stock option plan and reserved 500,000 shares of the Company's Common stock for issuance under the plan, with an automatic annual increase on the first day of the Company's fiscal year equal to the lesser of (i) 1,000,000 shares, (ii) 4% of the Company's outstanding common stock on such date or (iii) a lesser number of shares as determined by the Board of Directors. The annual increases begin in the fiscal year beginning February 1, 2002. The Company's 1994 stock option plan provides for the granting of options to purchase up to 4,400,000 shares of common stock. Generally, the 1994 and 2001 plans provide for the granting of options to purchase shares of common stock at the fair market value on the date of grant. Options granted under the 1994 and 2001 plans become exercisable over a five-year period and expire no more than ten years from the date of grant (all options outstanding at January 31, 2002 expire ten years from date of grant).

The Company uses the intrinsic value method specified by APB No. 25 to calculate compensation expense associated with issuing stock options and, accordingly, has recorded no such expense through January 31, 2002 as such issuances have been at the fair value of the Company's common stock at the date of grant.

SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," requires the disclosure of pro forma net income and earnings per share had the Company adopted the fair value method as of the beginning of fiscal 1996. Under SFAS No. 123, the fair value of stock- based awards to employees is calculated through the use of option pricing models, even though such models were developed to estimate the fair value of freely tradable, fully transferable options without vesting restrictions, which significantly differ from the Company's stock option awards. These models also require subjective assumptions, including future stock price volatility and expected time to exercise, which greatly affect the calculated values. The Company's calculations were made using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions for fiscal 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively: expected life, 18, 18 and 19 months following vesting; stock volatility, 104%, 100% and 97%; risk free interest rates, 4.67%, 4.84% and 5.5%; and no dividends during the expected term. The Company's calculations are based on a multiple option valuation approach and forfeitures are recognized as they occur. If the computed fair values of awards had been amortized to expense over the vesting period of the awards, pro forma net income (loss) available to common shareholders would have been (in thousands, except per share amounts):

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

During fiscal 2002, the Company adopted the 2001 Employee Stock Purchase Plan and reserved 100,000 shares of the Company's Common stock for issuance under the plan, with an automatic annual increase on the first day of the Company's fiscal year equal to the lesser of (i) 500,000 shares, (ii) 2% of the Company's outstanding common stock on such date or (iii) a lesser number of shares as determined by the Board of Directors. The Company's 1986 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (1986 ESPP) provided for the sale of up to 300,000 shares of common stock. At January 31, 2001, all shares authorized for issuance under 1986 ESPP had been issued. Under both plans, eligible employees may authorize payroll deductions of up to 10% of their regular base salaries to purchase common stock at 85% of the fair market value at the beginning or end of each six-month offering period. During fiscal 2002, 2001 and 2000, 68,034, 35,144, and 43,254 shares were purchased at an average price of $1.45, $2.34, and $3.45 per share, respectively. At January 31, 2002, 31,966 shares under 2001 Purchase Plan remain available for future purchase.

As a result of net losses and net operating loss carryforwards in fiscal 2002, 2001 and 2000, the Company has recorded no material income tax provision for all years presented.

Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of (a) temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes, and (b) operating losses and tax credit carryforwards.

The tax effects of significant items comprising the Company's deferred taxes are as follows (in thousands):

SFAS No. 109 requires that the tax benefit of net operating losses, temporary differences and credit carryforwards be recorded as an asset to the extent that management assesses that realization is "more likely than not." Realization of the future tax benefits is dependent on the Company's ability to generate sufficient taxable income within the carryforward period. Because of the Company's recent history of operating losses, risks associated with its new product introduction including the dependence on rapid acceptance of new technology, the dependence on development of complimentary software by third parties and other risks, such as technological change in the industry, short product life cycles and reliance on a limited number of suppliers and manufacturing contractors, management believes that recognition of the deferred tax assets arising from the above-mentioned future tax benefits is currently not appropriate and, accordingly, has provided a valuation allowance.

Net operating losses and tax credit carryforwards as of January 31, 2002 are as follows (in thousands):

Current federal and California tax laws include substantial restrictions on the utilization of net operating losses and tax credits in the event of an "ownership change" of a corporation. Accordingly, the Company's ability to utilize net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards may be limited as a result of such ownership change. Such a limitation could result in the expiration of carryforwards before they are utilized.
