2 GLENAYRE TECHNOLOGIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS' REVIEW REPORT To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Glenayre Technologies, Inc. Charlotte, North Carolina We have reviewed the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of Glenayre Technologies, Inc. and subsidiaries as of September 30, 1996, and the related condensed consolidated statements of income for the three-month periods and nine-month periods ended September 30, 1996 and 1995, the condensed consolidated statement of stockholders' equity for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 1996 and 1995. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's Management. We conducted our reviews in accordance with standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to financial data, and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, which will be performed for the full year with the objective of expressing an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. We have previously audited, in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the consolidated balance sheet of Glenayre Technologies, Inc. as of December 31, 1995, and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein) and in our report dated January 31, 1996, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 1995, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION OF NONCASH INVESTING AND FINANCING ACTIVITIES: On April 25, 1995, the Company acquired Western Multiplex Corporation. In connection with this acquisition the Company paid $1,323,000 in acquisition costs and issued common stock valued at $27,260,000 for assets with a fair value of $31,769,000 and assumed liabilities of $3,186,000. See notes to condensed consolidated financial statements 8 GLENAYRE TECHNOLOGIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (TABULAR AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS) (UNAUDITED) The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 1996 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 1996. The Company's financial results in any quarter are highly dependent upon various factors, including the timing and size of customer orders and the shipment of products for large orders. Large orders from customers can account for a significant portion of products shipped in any quarter. Accordingly, the shipment of products in fulfillment of such large orders can dramatically affect the results of operations of any single quarter. In April 1995, the Company completed the acquisition of Western Multiplex Corporation ("MUX"). The operating results of MUX are included in the operating results of the Company since the acquisition date. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Glenayre Technologies, Inc. Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1995. 1.

GOODWILL Goodwill is shown net of accumulated amortization of $11.5 million and $8.9 million at September 30, 1996 and December 31, 1995, respectively. 9 GLENAYRE TECHNOLOGIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3. INCOME TAXES The Company's consolidated income tax provision was different from the amount computed using the U.S. statutory income tax rate for the following reasons:
Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended September 30, September 30, --------------------- ------------------ 1996 1995 1996 1995 ---------- ---------- -------- --------- Income tax provision at U.S. statutory rate.. $6,443 $9,894 $26,332 $24,698 Reduction in valuation allowance.............

Subsequent to the quasi-reorganization completed on February 1, 1988, as described in Note 4, the benefits derived from the utilization of tax net operating loss carryforwards are reported in the statement of operations in the year such tax benefits are realized and then reclassified from retained earnings to contributed capital. The Company adopted the accounting method for utilization of these tax net operating loss carryforwards outlined above on February 1, 1988. On September 28, 1989, the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") released Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 86 ("SAB 86") which set forth the SEC staff's position with respect to this accounting treatment. According to the SEC staff's interpretation of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 96, "Accounting for Income Taxes," contained in SAB 86, realized tax benefits should be reported as a direct addition to contributed capital. Subsequently, the Company consulted with the SEC staff and determined that the SEC staff would not object to the accounting method outlined above for companies which had adopted such accounting methods prior to the issuance of SAB 86. If the original guidance in SAB 86 had been applied, the Company's net income for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 1996 and 1995 would have been reduced by the amount of the benefit from utilization of tax net operating loss carryforwards. Such reduction in net income would have been $2.9 million ($.05 per share) and $2.6 million ($.04 per share) for the three months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. Additionally, the reduction in net income would have been $5.4 million ($.08 per share) and $9.1 million ($.15 per share) for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. The Company believes that it is more likely than not that the net deferred tax asset recorded at September 30, 1996 will be fully realized. 10 GLENAYRE TECHNOLOGIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 4. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY (A) QUASI-REORGANIZATION On February 1, 1988, the Company completed a quasi-reorganization. After determining that the Company's balance sheet reflected approximate fair value on that date and that revaluation was not necessary, the accumulated deficit and the cumulative translation adjustment were adjusted to zero by reclassifying them to contributed capital. A new retained earnings account was established as of February 1, 1988. (B) STOCK REPURCHASES In 1994, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized the repurchase from time-to-time of the Company's common stock not to exceed approximately 1.7 million shares. The Company repurchased 75,000 shares and 1,495,000 shares in March 1996 and September 1996, respectively, at an aggregate cost of $36.3 million completing the original repurchase authorization. On September 25, 1996 the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase up to an additional 2.5 million shares. (C) ESTABLISHMENT OF INCENTIVE STOCK PLAN On May 22, 1996, the Company's stockholders approved the establishment of the 1996 Incentive Stock Plan (the "Plan") to promote the long-term financial interest and growth of the Company, reserving 2,200,000 shares for directors, certain key employees and other key persons providing services to the Company and its subsidiaries. The Plan is administered by a committee of the Board of Directors. (D) INCOME PER COMMON SHARE Primary income per common share was computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding plus the shares that would be outstanding assuming exercise of dilutive stock options which are considered to be common stock equivalents. The number of common shares that would be issued from the exercise of stock options has been reduced by the number of common shares that could be purchased from the proceeds at the average market price of the Company's stock during the periods such options were outstanding. The number of shares used to compute primary per share data for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 1996 and 1995 was 63,845,604 and 62,083,536, respectively. The number of shares used to compute primary per share data for the three-month periods ended September 30, 1996 and 1995 was 63,747,916 and 63,536,072, respectively. For purposes of the fully diluted income per share computations, the number of shares that could be issued from the exercise of stock options outstanding at the end of the period has been reduced by the number of shares which could have been purchased from the proceeds at the higher of the market price of the Company's stock on September 30, 1996 and 1995 or the average market prices during the periods such options were outstanding. For those options exercised during the period, the computation for the period prior to exercise is based on the market price when the option was exercised. The number of shares used to compute fully diluted per share data for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 1996 and 1995 was 63,867,033 and 62,663,733 respectively. The number of shares used to compute fully diluted per share data for the three-month periods ended September 30, 1996 and 1995 was 63,747,665 and 63,707,642, respectively. 11 GLENAYRE TECHNOLOGIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 5. PENDING BUSINESS ACQUISITION On October 16, 1996, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire CNET, Inc. ("CNET"), located in Plano, Texas. CNET provides operational support, network management and network planning, software products, services and equipment to the wireless communications industry. The estimated purchase price of approximately $7.5 million consists of approximately 310,000 shares of the Company's common stock valued at approximately $6.5 million based on the stock price at the date of the agreement and $1 million in cash. In addition, the Company will assume certain stock options to purchase shares of CNET common stock which will be converted into options to purchase approximately 60,000 shares of the Company's common stock. 12 GLENAYRE TECHNOLOGIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS BACKGROUND Glenayre Technologies, Inc. ("Glenayre" or the "Company") designs, manufactures, markets and services telecommunications equipment and software used in wireless personal communications systems throughout the world. The Company's product families are grouped in either (i) Wireless Messaging (paging and narrowband personal communication services ("NPCS") products), or (ii) Voice and Data Technologies (voice messaging, microwave communication and radio telephone products) categories. Additionally, Glenayre provides service and support to its products. In April 1995, the Company completed the acquisition of Western Multiplex Corporation ("MUX"). The operating results of MUX are included in the operating results of the Company since the acquisition date. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and related Notes and the Cautionary Statement included as Exhibit 99. NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996 COMPARED WITH NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1995 NET SALES Net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 increased to $286.0 million from net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 of $222.9 million, an increase of $63.1 million, or 28.3%. Net sales of Wireless Messaging products and Voice and Data products for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 increased to approximately $223.2 million and $40.7 million, respectively, from approximately $178.9 million and $21.7 million, respectively, for the prior period. The increase in net sales was primarily a result of the sales of new systems and the continued expansion and upgrading of existing systems within the installed customer base. In the 1996 period, service revenue including maintenance contracts, installation, project management and training revenue decreased to approximately $22.1 million from $22.3 million for the 1995 period. Sales to a single customer totaled approximately 15% and 19% of sales for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. GROSS PROFIT Gross profit increased to $156.6 million, or 54.8% of net sales, for the nine months ended September 30, 1996, from $126.9 million, or 56.9% of net sales, for the nine months ended September 30, 1995. The decrease in gross margin percentage is primarily the result of: (i) an increase in fixed costs from additional capacity brought on line during the latter half of 1995 in anticipation of NPCS product line shipments which have been delayed by customers and which would have increased volume and utilized the additional capacity; and (ii) additional customer support costs. The Company expects the commercial shipments of its NPCS product line will begin in 1997. SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE Selling, general and administrative expense increased to $58.2 million, or 20.4% of net sales, for the nine months ended September 30, 1996, from $39.7 million, or 17.8% of net sales, for the nine months 13 GLENAYRE TECHNOLOGIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- of approximately $10.8 million for additional personnel related to sales, marketing and general support functions; (ii) an increase of $5.5 million relating to additional marketing, sales support costs such as promotional material, trade shows, international office lease expenses, travel and hiring expenses; and (iii) $2.3 million related to legal costs associated with international offices and other normal expenses associated with increased operating activities. DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION EXPENSE Depreciation and amortization expense increased to $9.9 million or 3.4% of net sales, for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 from $5.8 million or 2.6% of net sales for the prior period. The increase is primarily attributable to (i) the significant purchases of plant and equipment during 1995 and (ii) goodwill related to the acquisition of MUX in April 1995. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSE Research and development costs increased to $20.7 million, or 7.2% of net sales, for the nine months ended September 30, 1996, from $17.1 million, or 7.7% of net sales, for the nine months ended September 30, 1995, an increase of $3.6 million, or 21.1%. The increase was primarily a result of increased research and development manpower and research material purchased. The research and development costs were primarily for new product development and enhancements to existing products. Both hardware and software development costs are included in research and development costs. All research and development costs are expensed as incurred. INTEREST INCOME, NET The Company realized net interest income of $7.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 compared to net interest income realized of $6.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 1995. The increase is primarily attributable to higher average balances in cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments. INCOME TAXES The difference between the combined U.S. federal and state statutory tax rate of approximately 40% and the effective tax rate of 28.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 and 24.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 is primarily the result of the utilization of the Company's net operating losses and the application of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 "Accounting for Income Taxes," ("SFAS 109"), in computing the Company's tax provision. The difference between the effective tax rate of 28.6% in 1996 and 24.8% in 1995 is primarily the result of a variance between the 1996 and 1995 adjustments for realization of tax benefits of net operating loss carryforwards for financial statement purposes in accordance with SFAS 109 primarily due to revisions during each period to the estimated future taxable income during the Company's loss carryforward period. See Note 3 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. 14 GLENAYRE TECHNOLOGIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996 COMPARED WITH THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1995 NET SALES Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 1996, increased to $91.6 million from net sales for the three months ended September 30, 1995 of $88.1 million, an increase of $3.5 million, or 3.9%. The increase in net sales was primarily a result of the increase in sales of Voice and Data products. Net sales of Wireless Messaging products and Voice and Data products for the three months ended September 30, 1996 were approximately $67.5 million and $15.0 million, respectively, compared with approximately $67.8 million and $10.3 million, respectively, for the prior period. In 1996, service revenue decreased to approximately $9.2 million from $10.0 million in 1995. The decrease was primarily due to fewer project management and installation contracts being completed in 1996 compared to the prior period. One customer accounted for approximately 16% and 21% of sales for the three months ended September 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively. GROSS PROFIT Gross profit decreased to $47.7 million, or 52.1% of net sales, for the three months ended September 30, 1996, from $50.2 million, or 57.0% of net sales, for the three months ended September 30, 1995. The decrease in gross margin percentage is primarily the result of: (i) an increase in fixed costs from additional capacity brought on line during the second half of 1995 in anticipation of NPCS product line shipments which have been delayed by customers and which would have utilized the additional capacity; (ii) additional customer support costs; and (iii) product mix which included a greater proportion of sales of products with lower margins. SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE Selling, general and administrative expense increased to $21.2 million, or 23.1% of net sales, for the three months ended September 30, 1996 from $15.4 million, or 17.5% of net sales, for the three months ended September 30, 1995. The $5.7 million increase primarily resulted from: (i) increased expenses of approximately $3.6 million for additional personnel related to sales, marketing and general support functions; and (ii) an increase of approximately $1.8 million relating to additional marketing, sales support costs such as trade shows, international office lease expenses, travel and hiring expenses. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSE Research and development costs increased to $7.3 million, or 8.0% of net sales, for the three months ended September 30, 1996, from $6.4 million, or 7.3% of net sales, for the three months ended September 30, 1995, an increase of $850 thousand, or 13.2%. The increase was primarily a result of increased research and development manpower and research material purchased. DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION EXPENSE Depreciation and amortization expense increased to $3.5 million or 3.8% of net sales for the three months ended September 30, 1996 from approximately $2.3 million or 2.6% of net sales for the same 15 GLENAYRE TECHNOLOGIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- period in 1995. The increase is primarily attributable to the significant purchases of plant and equipment during 1995. INTEREST INCOME, NET The Company realized net interest income of $2.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 1996 compared to net interest income realized of $2.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 1995. The increase is primarily attributable to higher average balances in cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments. INCOME TAXES The difference between the combined U.S. federal and state statutory tax rate of approximately 40% and the effective tax rate of 25.0% for the three months ended September 30, 1996 and 25.5% for the three months ended September 30, 1995 is primarily the result of the utilization of the Company's net operating losses and the application of SFAS 109 in computing the Company's tax provision. The difference between the effective tax rate of 25.0% in 1996 and 25.5% in 1995 is primarily the result of a variance between the 1996 and 1995 adjustments for realization of tax benefits of net operating loss carryforwards for financial statement purposes in accordance with SFAS 109 primarily due to revisions during each period to the estimated future taxable income during the Company's loss carryforward period. See Note 3 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY The Company's working capital at September 30, 1996 was $286.0 million, including cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments of $148.1 million. Accounts payable and accrued liabilities at September 30, 1996 increased from December 31, 1995 primarily as a result of timing differences and increased levels of operating activities. During the nine months ended September 30, 1996 the Company received cash of $14.1 million from the exercise of stock options. During the nine months ended September 30, 1996, the Company spent $20.4 million for capital expenditures. These expenditures were necessary in order to provide the equipment and capacity to meet the growth of the business. During the nine months ended September 30, 1996, the Company repurchased 1,570,000 of its common shares at an aggregate cost of $36.3 million. In April 1996, the Company completed negotiations to build a 75,000 square foot facility with a total cost of approximately $6.5 million in Atlanta, Georgia to replace the current leased Atlanta facilities used for sales, service, research and development, and training. Approximately $4.4 million paid toward the new facility is included in the capital expenditures for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 with the remaining $2.1 million expected to be paid by the Company by December 31, 1996. In September 1996, the Company completed negotiations to purchase a 42,000 square foot facility with a total cost of approximately $11.0 million in Singapore to replace the current leased facilities used for sales and service. Approximately $1.0 million paid toward the new facility is included in the capital expenditures for the nine months ended September 30, 1996 with approximately $9.0 million and $1.0 million to be paid by the Company in November 1996 and the first quarter 1997, respectively. The Company's cash and cash equivalents are placed in short-term investments consisting of high-grade commercial paper, bank certificates of deposit, U.S. Treasury bills and notes, and repurchase agreements backed by U.S. Government securities with original maturities of three months or less. The Company's short-term investments are comprised of identical types of investments with the exception that their original maturities are greater than three months, but do not exceed one year. 16 GLENAYRE TECHNOLOGIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Company expects to use its cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments for working capital and other general corporate purposes, including the expansion and development of its existing products and markets, financing customer purchases of its products, and the possible expansion into complementary businesses. The Company believes that funds generated from continuing operations, together with its current cash reserves, will be sufficient to support its short-term and long-term liquidity requirements for current operations (including capital expenditures and stock repurchases). Company management believes that, if needed, it can establish appropriate borrowing arrangements with lending institutions. 17 GLENAYRE TECHNOLOGIES, INC.

EX-99 6 EXHIBIT 99 EXHIBIT 99 CAUTIONARY STATEMENT UNDER SAFE HARBOR PROVISIONS OF THE PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995 Glenayre Technologies, Inc. ("Glenayre" or the "Company") sets forth below the following cautionary statement identifying important factors that could cause the Company's actual results to differ materially from those projected in any forward looking statements made by or on behalf of the Company. These cautionary statements are made pursuant to Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, both enacted pursuant to the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. POTENTIAL MARKET CHANGES RESULTING FROM RAPID TECHNOLOGICAL ADVANCES Glenayre's business is primarily focused on paging and is subject to competition from alternative forms of communication. In addition, Glenayre's business is also focused on the wireless telecommunications industry. The wireless telecommunications industry is characterized by, and subject to, rapid and significant technological change and future technological advances, including digital-based cellular telephone systems, which may result in the availability of new services or products which compete, directly or indirectly, with Glenayre's products or the services provided by the Company's customers. The effect of such technological advances on the business of the Company cannot be predicted, and there can be no assurance that such technological advances will not adversely affect Glenayre. While the introduction of more advanced forms of telecommunication may provide opportunities to Glenayre for the development of new products, these advanced forms of telecommunication may reduce the demand for pagers and thus the type of paging transmission systems and related software designed and sold by Glenayre. In addition, there can be no assurance that Glenayre will be able to develop successfully these new products or to provide additional enhancements to its existing products. COMPETITION The Company currently faces competition from a number of other equipment manufacturers, certain of which are larger and have significantly greater resources than the Company, and there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to compete successfully in the future. In addition, manufacturers of wireless telecommunications equipment, including those in the cellular telephone industry, certain of which are larger and have significantly greater resources than the Company, could elect to enter into the Company's markets and compete with Glenayre's products. The Company also faces indirect competition from alternative wireless telecommunications technologies, including cellular telephone services, mobile satellite systems, specialized and private mobile radio systems, digital-based cellular telephone systems and broadband personal communication services. These technologies, among others, are currently in use or under development. Although these technologies are higher priced than traditional paging services or are not yet commercially available, technological improvements could result in increased capacity and efficiency for wireless two-way communication and, accordingly, could result in increased competition for the Company. See "Potential Market Changes from Rapid Technological Advances". VARIABILITY OF QUARTERLY RESULTS The Company's financial results in any quarter are highly dependent upon various factors, including the timing and size of customer orders and the shipment of products for large orders. Large orders from customers can account for a significant portion of products shipped in any quarter. Accordingly, the shipment of products in fulfillment of such large orders can dramatically affect the results of operations of any single quarter. Sales to one customer totaled approximately 13% and 16% of 1994 and 1995 fiscal year net sales, respectively. The customers with whom the Company does the largest amount of business generally change from year to year as a result of the timing for development and expansion of its customers' systems. Furthermore, if a customer delays or accelerates its delivery requirements or a product's completion is delayed or accelerated, revenues expected in a given quarter may be deferred or accelerated into subsequent or earlier quarters. Therefore, annual financial results are more indicative of the Company's performance than quarterly results, and results of operations in any quarterly period may not be indicative of results likely to be realized in the following quarterly periods. In addition, comparisons to the results of the Company's prior quarterly periods may not be appropriate indicators of future quarterly period results. VOLATILITY OF STOCK PRICE The market price of Glenayre Common Stock is volatile. The market price of Glenayre Common Stock could be subject to significant fluctuations in response to variations in Glenayre's quarterly operating results and other factors such as announcements of technological developments or new products by Glenayre, developments in Glenayre's relationships with its customers, technological advances by existing and new competitors, general market conditions in the industry and changes in government regulations. In addition, in recent years conditions in the stock market in general and shares of technology companies in particular have experienced significant price and volume fluctuations which have often been unrelated to the operating performance of these specific companies. Such market fluctuations and economic conditions unrelated to Glenayre may adversely affect the market price of Glenayre's Common Stock. LIMITS ON PROTECTION OF PROPRIETARY TECHNOLOGY AND INFRINGEMENT CLAIMS Glenayre owns or licenses numerous patents used in its operations. Glenayre believes that while these patents are useful to Glenayre, they are not critical or valuable on an individual basis. The collective value of the intellectual property of Glenayre is comprised of its patents, blueprints, specifications, technical processes and cumulative employee knowledge. Although Glenayre attempts to protect its proprietary technology through a combination of trade secrets, patent law, nondisclosure agreements and technical measures, such protection may not preclude competitors from developing products with features similar to Glenayre's products. The laws of some foreign countries in which Glenayre sells or may sell its products, including The Republic of Korea, The People's Republic of China, Saudi Arabia, Thailand, Dubai, India and Brazil, do not protect Glenayre's proprietary rights in the products to the same extent as do the laws of the United States. Although Glenayre believes that its products and technology do not infringe on the proprietary rights of others, Glenayre is currently party to certain infringement claims, and there can be no assurance that third parties will not assert additional infringement claims against Glenayre in the future. If such litigation resulted in Glenayre's inability to use technology, Glenayre might be required to expend substantial resources to develop alternative technology or to license the prior technology. There can be no assurance that Glenayre could successfully develop alternative technology or license the prior technology on commercially reasonable terms. Glenayre does not believe, however, that an adverse resolution of the pending claims would have a material adverse effect on Glenayre. POTENTIAL CHANGES IN GOVERNMENT REGULATION Many of Glenayre's products operate on radio frequencies. Radio frequency transmissions and emissions, and certain equipment used in connection therewith, are regulated in the United States, Canada and internationally. Regulatory approvals generally must be obtained by Glenayre in connection with the manufacture and sale of its products, and by Glenayre's paging service provider and other wireless customers to operate Glenayre's products. There can be no assurance that appropriate regulatory approvals will continue to be obtained, or that approvals required with respect to products being developed for the personal communications services market will be obtained. The enactment by federal, state, local or international governments of new laws or regulations or a change in the interpretation of existing regulations could affect the market for Glenayre's products. Although recent deregulation of international telecommunications industries along with recent radio frequency spectrum allocations made by the Federal Communications Commission ("FCC") in the United States have increased the demand for Glenayre's products by providing users of those products with opportunities to establish new paging and other wireless personal communications services, there can be no assurance that the trend toward deregulation and current regulatory developments favorable to the promotion of new and expanded personal communications services will continue or that other future regulatory changes will have a positive impact on 2 Glenayre. In February 1996, the FCC released a notice of proposed rule making covering a licensing rule and procedure change on the 929 MHz and 931 MHz as well as certain other paging frequencies which included a freeze on its acceptance of new applications for paging system licenses. In April 1996, the FCC partially lifted this freeze to permit paging service providers to submit expansion applications for paging transmitter sites within 40 miles of their existing sites. As the issuance of new paging system licenses stimulates demand for the Company's products, this freeze may adversely affect sales and the timing of sales of the Company's products in the United States. FINANCING CUSTOMER PURCHASES FOR DEVELOPMENT OF NPCS MARKET The Company expects to finance customer purchases of its products for development of the narrowband personal communications services ("NPCS") market for the build-out of NPCS networks by its customers who recently acquired NPCS licenses auctioned by the FCC (the "NPCS License Holders"). Glenayre has provided customer financing in the past on a selected basis but generally has not extended credit except in accordance with the usual and customary terms of the industry. The NPCS market, including two-way paging, is still in the developmental stages and will require the application of new technology. There can be no assurances that this technology will be developed, that NPCS will be accepted in the marketplace or that NPCS will be commercially viable. The development of the NPCS market will be affected by matters beyond the control of the Company such as technological changes in wireless messaging services, regulatory developments and general economic conditions. Many of the NPCS License Holders with whom the Company expects to enter into customer financing arrangements have limited operating histories, significant debt related to the acquisition of their NPCS licenses and start-up expenses, negative cash flows from operations and some have never generated an operating profit. There can be no assurance that these customers will be able to repay Glenayre for the equipment sold under customer financing arrangements. The Company plans to retain a lien on any equipment for which it provides financing. There can be no assurance that the equipment will be returned in the event of a default or be saleable upon recovery. INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS RISKS Approximately 35% of 1995 fiscal year net sales were generated in markets outside of the United States. International sales are subject to the customary risks associated with international transactions, including political risks, local laws and taxes, the potential imposition of trade or currency exchange restrictions, tariff increases, transportation delays, difficulties or delays in collecting accounts receivable, and, to a lesser extent, exchange rate fluctuations. Although a substantial portion of the international sales of the Company's products and services for fiscal year 1995 was negotiated in U.S. dollars, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to maintain such a high percentage of U.S. dollar denominated international sales. The Company seeks to mitigate its currency exchange fluctuation risk by entering into currency hedging transactions. The Company also acts to mitigate certain risks associated with international transactions through the purchase of political risk insurance and the use of letters of credit. 3 -----END PRIVACY-ENHANCED MESSAGE-----
