General ------- Oak Technology, Inc. and its subsidiaries ("Oak" or the "Company") designs, develops and markets high performance integrated semiconductors, software and platform solutions to original equipment manufacturers ("OEMs") worldwide that serve the optical storage and digital imaging equipment markets. Our digital imaging products consist of semiconductor hardware and software that enables users to print, scan, process and transmit documents to computer peripherals that perform printing functions. Our Optical Storage products consist primarily of integrated circuits and supporting software and firmware, all designed to store and distribute digital content, thereby enabling our customers to deliver cost-effective, powerful systems to the end user for the home and enterprise. We are a "fabless" semiconductor company, in that we contract with independent foundries to manufacture all of our integrated circuit products, enabling us to focus on our design strengths, minimize fixed costs and capital expenditures, and gain access to advanced manufacturing facilities. Oak's mission is to be a leading solution provider for the storage and distribution of digital content. Oak's operations are organized along its two market-focused groups: the Optical Storage Group and the Imaging Group. The Imaging Group is comprised of the combination of our Xionics Document Technologies, Inc. and Pixel Magic subsidiaries, serving the digital imaging equipment market. Oak was originally incorporated in California in 1987 and was reincorporated in Delaware in 1994. Our executive offices and principal marketing, sales and product development operations are located at 1390 Kifer Road, Sunnyvale, California 94086, telephone number (408) 523-6500. In addition, we have facilities in: Woburn, Massachusetts; San Diego, California; Tucson, Arizona; Austin, Texas; Taipei, Taiwan; Yokohama City, Kanagawa and Osaka, Japan; Seoul, Korea; Manchester, England; and Dortmund, Germany. Corporate History ----------------- Oak provides high-performance, integrated semiconductors to original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) worldwide who serve the optical storage, and digital imaging equipment markets. The Company's products, consisting primarily of integrated circuits and supporting software and firmware, enable its OEM customers to deliver cost-effective, powerful systems to the end-user for storage, home entertainment and imaging (copy, fax, print) applications. The Company pioneered the IDE/ATAPI CD-ROM controller chip in 1993, and was recognized as one of the industry's largest merchant suppliers of CD-ROM controllers. The Company established customer relationships 3 with many of the leading CD-ROM drive manufacturers and, through these relationships, sought input directly from its customers regarding the optimal features for next generation of optical storage controllers having advanced features and higher levels of integration. In 1997, the Company began to investigate expanding into additional optical storage market segments, conducting research and development targeting optical storage semiconductors for use in CD-Recordable (CD-R) and CD-ReWritable (CD-RW) drives. The Company also engaged in research and development that leveraged its CD-ROM and CD-R/RW development efforts, by pursuing the development of additional optical storage semiconductors, including MPEG-1 and MPEG-2 audio/video decoders for VideoCD (VCD) and DVD players, and integrated circuits for digital broadcast systems such as cable, satellite and terrestrial set-top boxes for use in such emerging markets as DVD-ROM drives and DVD players. In the second half of fiscal 1998, the Company began a period of redirection and restructuring in an effort to redefine its strategic direction and focus on its key strengths and core competencies. A key decision was made to exit markets where the Company saw limited potential for profitability and a significant dependency on the PC market and redirect resources to market opportunities where the Company could utilize its core technical competencies. The Company initiated several changes in the fiscal year to support this redirection. As part of this redirection, in July 1998, Oak acquired ViewPoint Technology, Inc., a privately held company that was developing solutions for the CD-RW ("Read-Writable") drive market. ViewPoint had developed a controller that supports high encoding speeds for CD-RW drives. The ViewPoint acquisition provided Oak with a controller to complement its expertise in the block decoder area, and provided a springboard for Oak's next generation CD-RW drives. In August 1998, Oak acquired Xerographic Laser Images Corporation ("XLI"), a provider of print quality enhancement technology for the digital imaging equipment markets. XLI was operated as a division of Pixel Magic, a wholly- owned subsidiary of Oak, and served to leverage Pixel Magic's position in the digital equipment market by broadening its expertise in resolution enhancement technology ("iRET"). In July 1999, Oak acquired Xionics Document Technologies, Inc., which became a wholly owned subsidiary of Oak following the merger. Xionics was engaged in the design, development and marketing of innovative software and silicon solutions for printing, scanning, copying, processing and transmitting digital documents to computer peripheral devices that perform document imaging functions. These devices include printers, copiers, scanners, fax machines and multifunction peripherals (MFPs) that perform a combination of these imaging functions. Oak consolidated its Pixel Magic subsidiary with Xionics to form the Imaging Group and moved the combined entity to Woburn, Massachusetts in August 2000. In July 2000, Oak acquired TCD Labs, Inc. This acquisition enabled us to offer complete, integrated, retail-ready hardware/software solutions to PC and CD-RW drive makers, and to leverage TCD's enabling software for compact disk recording technology, allowing consumers to take full advantage of the data capturing, sharing and archiving capabilities of the CD-RW format. As a result of the TCD acquisition, Oak has formed an Optical Media Software Group within our Optical Group. In July 2001, Oak purchased all of the outstanding shares of Accel Technology Ltd., a design engineering firm based in Osaka, Japan, pursuant to the terms of a share purchase agreement. Accel focuses on turnkey CD-RW and DVD Recordable drives for PC and consumer use. Accel has been organized as a division within the Optical Storage Group. Target Markets and Products --------------------------- Currently, our target markets include optical storage and digital imaging hardware and software, which correspond to our Optical Storage Group and Imaging Group, respectively. Our business strategy and product offerings (current and planned for fiscal 2003) for each of the target market segments are described below. 4 OPTICAL STORAGE Business Overview and Strategy ------------------------------ Multimedia computer applications have continued to drive the demand for low-cost, high-density storage mechanisms. Initially, the adoption of CD-ROM technology as the mainstream optical storage medium on the desktop was fueled in large measure by data-intensive, graphics/audio/video-rich applications that required a universal, high-density storage medium. Today, this adoption has shifted from CD-ROM technology to CD-RW and DVD based technologies for the storing, displaying and distribution of digital content. Oak's Optical Storage Group is a leading provider of controllers to the optical storage market, and a pioneer in this field with the first IDE/ATAPI CD-ROM controller. Today our Optical Group's product deployments are targeted on CD-RW drives, CD-RW drives with DVD read capability, commonly known as Combo drives, and DVD-RW. Our Optical Storage Group currently has solutions for CD-RW and Combo drives, and a three-chip solution for DVD Recordable. Our core competencies include IDE and alternative interfaces, error correction code ("ECC"), DSP/servo control, disc write encoding, wobble servo, write strategy, system design, analog, RF and system software and firmware. OEM customers for our Optical Storage products in fiscal 2002 included LG Electronics, Philips, Samsung and Mitsumi. The optical storage market is witnessing an increasing adoption of Optical Storage drives, driven by the popularity of customized audio CD recordings and the widespread availability of MP3 audio titles on the Internet. The adoption of Combo drives specifically is likewise experiencing an accelerated adoption due principally to the increased demand for combined functionality in slim drives for notebook computers. We have prepared for these market transitions by focusing our development efforts on the CD-RW Combo and DVD-RW technologies, which provide us with the opportunity to offer valuable innovation to our customers in a growing market faced with technological challenges. Our strategy for increasing the market penetration of our CD-RW, Combo and DVD RW products and technologies includes technological innovation, protection of intellectual property, and aggressive marketing programs. We may also enter into strategic alliances with drive manufacturers and technology partners. The Optical Storage market has picked up considerable momentum as more consumers discover the advantages of this writable and removable medium. Re- writable Optical Storage drives are quickly emerging as the preferred removable media storage device, particularly for the home PC market. Major applications include audio, still pictures and Video storage, archival and data interchange. Increased consumer demand and the widespread adoption of CD-RW, Combo and DVD- RW drives by the PC OEM manufacturers over the next year are expected to contribute to significant ongoing growth in the Optical Storage market. The anticipated industry adoption of Microsoft's Mount Rainier standard, which will enable native operating systems to support data on Optical Storage media, and in effect replace the floppy drive, is expected to further accelerate the growth of the Optical Storage market. We expect that ongoing functional integration and continuing improvements in performance, particularly for the writing speeds, will play an important role in cost reduction and consumer acceptance of the CD-RW drives, thereby fueling its mass adoption by PC OEMs. To this end, we recently announced the OTI-9797T CD-RW controller which has 48X CD-RW write speeds as well as 48X CD- ROM read speeds. We are also focusing our efforts on the OTI-9897, a fully integrated controller chip for use in Combo drives. The Combo drive offers wide functionality to the end user and is becoming a mainstream product for the notebook PC markets. We believe the Combo drive will facilitate the recently observed evolution from CD formats to DVD and DVD recordable formats. In anticipation of this evolution we recently announced our three-chip solution for DVD Recordable. The OTI-9832, OTI 9831 and the OTI 9838 combine to create a highly integrated recordable DVD solution offering 32X CD-R, 24X CD-RW, 16X DVD Read and 4X DVD Write speeds, supporting all DVD formats: DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD+R and DVD+RW. Additionally, as a result of our recent acquisition of Accel Technology, we are able to provide our customers with a faster time-to-market capability, through the availability of comprehensive reference designs based on the OTI-9797T, including the full firmware needed to build a CD-RW drive. We believe that this capability to offer a complete solution places Oak in a unique competitive position and offers a valuable time-to-market advantage to its customers. 5 The following table shows our current mix of Optical Storage products for fiscal 2002. All products in the table are in production. In addition, we are currently developing several next-generation products, which are generally not disclosed until the products have been developed.

Our Optical Media Software Group, formed in July 2000 as a result of the acquisition of TCD Labs, licenses its SimpliCD(r) optical storage recording software and Recorder SDK (Software developer Kits) to PC OEMs and drive manufacturers. SimpliCD is designed to simplify the burning of CDs from a Windows desktop utilizing a media player. The Recorder SDK allows OEMs to enable the recording of compressed audio files on a CD in accordance with the Optical Storage Trade Association's (OSTA) MultiAudio format. The Optical Media Software Group is Oak's first entry into CD-RW software as a product offering, and represents one component of our CD-RW strategy. The addition of SimpliCD to the Optical Storage product line allows Oak to provide an integrated, retail-ready software solution to both drive makers and PC OEMs. SimpliCD uses a CD-RW drive to create or copy consumer audio, video or computer-data CDs, allowing Oak to leverage the software in compact disk recording technology, and allowing our consumers to take full advantage of the data capturing, sharing and archiving capabilities of the CD-RW format. SimpliCD's drag-and-drop user interface is designed to provide ease of recording capability in all Microsoft Windows-based environments, and is universally compatible with all CD-RW drives and controllers. 6 IMAGING GROUP Business Overview and Strategy ------------------------------ The Imaging Group is a merchant supplier of application-specific integrated circuits, IC-based controller technology, and digital page processing software and technology for the digital imaging, production and printing market, enabling users to print, scan, copy, process and transmit documents in computer peripherals, such as printers, copiers, and multi- function peripherals (MFPs), that perform document imaging functions. The Imaging Group is located in Woburn, Massachusetts. For hardware solutions, the Imaging Group designs high-performance, full- featured compression ASICs, imaging DSPs, resolution enhancement ASICs and system-on-a-chip ("SOC") solutions for digital copiers, printers, scanners, fax machines and multifunction peripherals ("MFPs"). For software solutions, Oak's Imaging Group offers integrated, modular embedded software products, intended to provide the performance, output quality and network connectivity required for today's printing peripheral market. In addition, we provide complementary personal computer software products, in particular printer drivers, and standards-based technology to enable original equipment manufacturers ("OEMs") of peripherals to design and develop differentiated products. Core competencies include strong expertise in color/monochrome image processing pipelines, dot modulation and resolution enhancement technology, and high-speed compression/decompression technology and systems applications, high- speed imaging DSP technology, SOC design, control of scanner and printer mechanisms, reference design platforms and software and hardware architecture for processing and control of document imaging peripherals that incorporate page description language interpreters. We offer a broad suite of products to major OEMs in the digital imaging and printing market. Our OEM customers for these products during fiscal 2002 included Canon, Hewlett-Packard, Lexmark, Xerox, Ricoh, Sharp, Minolta-QMS, Fujitsu, Fuji-Xerox, Kyocera, Heidelberg, IBM, Kodak, Matsushita, Olivetti, Samsung, Sanyo, Seiko Epson, and Toshiba. Fundamental shifts are presently occurring in the digital imaging market. These changes include increasing share of color printing technology, growth in distributed printing, the shift towards MFPs, growth in network connectivity and the emergence of PC-independent printing, including wireless printing due to rapid growth of digital hand held devices. Imaging equipment manufacturers are also continuing to shift toward the use of outsourced design and manufacturing suppliers, in particular for the high volume low cost segment of the market. Although historically targeting the mid-range of the digital imaging market, we are now also targeting high-volume opportunities, such as the low- end to mid-range laser and inkjet products. In fiscal 2002, Oak introduced its new Quatro architecture, a SOC platform that combines the power of a RISC CPU core with Oak's advanced DSP core to provide highly flexible SOC solutions for imaging and printing devices. In fiscal 2002, Oak also introduced its XP family of printing solutions compliant with the XHTML-PRINT standard to help OEMs build printers and MFPs that meet the requirements of print from non-PC devices. For fiscal 2003, the Imaging Group will continue its efforts to develop new generations of products combining its software and silicon expertise to offer solutions for OEMs in the digital imaging market. 7 Digital Imaging Equipment Products ---------------------------------- ASICS -----

8 Services -------- The Imaging Group assists OEMs in deploying Oak products and technology in their devices by providing engineering services. This may include complete controller design as well as custom engineering for vendor-specific features that complement our standard technology. We also offer driver development and customization. In addition, we maintain a network of third-party development partners to give the Imaging Group and OEM customers the option of using an independent development partner closely allied with the Imaging Group for development and integration services. Manufacturing Services. For OEMs wishing to procure a total turnkey ---------------------- controller solution, the Imaging Group from time to time provides manufacturing management services. This includes complete project management of the design, development, and manufacturing start-up, as well as management of the ongoing product of the OEM's controller board by a third-party manufacturing contractor. OEM Services. The Imaging Group's OEM Services group provides customer ------------ support in every aspect of development, training, and maintenance. Software maintenance service is provided on a contract basis, and includes updates of the licensed software, if any, along with support in the form of telephonic and electronic mail response to customer questions. Engineering support services, in which the Imaging Group's engineers perform or assist with specific engineering task for OEMs, are available for a fee either on a project specific or general as needed basis. OAK'S MANUFACTURING AND DESIGN METHODOLOGY Manufacturing ------------- We contract with independent foundries to manufacture all of our products, enabling us to focus on our design strengths, minimize fixed costs and capital expenditures and gain access to advanced manufacturing facilities. We depend on our foundries to allocate to us a portion of their foundry capacity sufficient to meet our needs to produce products of acceptable quality and with acceptable manufacturing yields and to deliver products to us in a timely manner. These foundries fabricate products for other companies and some manufacture products of their own design. Shipments of our products could be delayed if: o we lose any of these foundries as a supplier, o we are unable, in a period of increased demand for our products, to expand the foundry capacity of our current suppliers or qualify other wafer manufacturers for additional foundry capacity, o we are unable to obtain timely and adequate deliveries from our current or future suppliers; or o any other circumstances arise that would require us to seek alternative sources of supply. Delays in shipments could damage relationships with our current and prospective customers, provide an advantage to our competitors and have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Most of our devices are currently fabricated using complementary metal oxide semiconductor ("CMOS") process technology from 0.5 micron, 0.35 micron and 0.25 micron feature sizes. In addition, we are sampling products for 0.18 micron feature sizes. All of our semiconductor products are assembled and tested by independent subcontractors. Our primary supplier of wafers during fiscal year 2002 was TSMC. The foundries generally are not obligated to supply products to us for any specific period, in any specific quantity or at a specific price, except as may be provided in a particular purchase order. However, in order to obtain an adequate supply of wafers, especially wafers manufactured using advanced process techniques, we have entered into and will continue to consider various possible transactions, including various "take or pay" contracts, that commit us to purchase specified quantities of wafers over extended periods. 9 Our reliance on independent manufacturers and third party assembly and testing vendors involves a number of additional risks, including the unavailability of, or interruption in access to, certain process technologies and reduced control over delivery schedules, quality assurance and costs. In addition, as a result of our dependence on foreign subcontractors, we are subject to the risks of conducting business internationally, including foreign government regulation and general political risks, such as political and economic instability, potential hostilities, changes in diplomatic and trade relationships, currency fluctuations, unexpected changes in, or imposition of, regulatory requirements, tariffs, import and export restrictions, and other barriers and restrictions, potentially adverse tax consequences, the burdens of complying with a variety of foreign laws and other factors beyond our control. Substantially all of our agreements with offshore wafer fabrication and assembly facilities provide for pricing and payment in U.S. dollars. The design and development of semiconductors is a highly complex and precise process. Additionally, our products are particularly complex and difficult to manufacture. Minute levels of contaminants in the manufacturing environment, defects in the masks used to print circuits on a wafer, difficulties in the fabrication process or other factors can cause a substantial percentage of wafers to be rejected or a significant number of die on each wafer to be nonfunctional. Many of these problems are difficult to diagnose, time consuming and expensive to remedy, all of which can affect our time to market with a particular product. Our foundries may experience irregularities or adverse yield fluctuations in their manufacturing processes. If we or our foundries experience any yield or other production problems or shortages of supply, our business could suffer. Design Methodology ------------------ Our products compete in markets that are characterized by rapidly developing technology and evolving industry standards. As a fabless semiconductor company, we address these issues with a design environment based on workstations, dedicated product simulators, system simulation with hardware and software modeling, and use of a high level design description language in order to define, develop and deliver new and enhanced products more rapidly. Our engineering and design capabilities are critical to our future performance. We have invested regularly in new advanced equipment and software tools in an effort to keep these tools updated with the latest technology. In addition to the Imaging Group design facilities in Woburn, Massachusetts and the Optical Storage Group design facilities in our corporate headquarters in Sunnyvale, California, we have established Design Centers in Austin, Texas; San Diego, California; Tucson, Arizona; Dortmund, Germany; Manchester, England; Taipei, Taiwan R.O.C. and Osaka, Japan. Oak's library of core cells is key to its ability to reduce the time needed to design new products. Examples of core cells include a CD-ROM decoder core, CD-R/W encoder/decoder core, CD-DSP & CD-Servo core, a parallel, multi- pipelined microprocessor core, MPEG2 core, DVD-DSP core, 0.5, 0.35, 0.25 and 0.18 micron memory compilers, 0.5, 0.35, 0.25, and 0.18 micron I/O libraries, SIMD DSP core, JBIG core and JPEG core. Design methodology, including equipment and software tools, is a critical factor in our ability to successfully develop technology and products. However, we may not be able to obtain the equipment, software tools and other resources needed to develop technically advanced products in a timely manner. Marketing and Customers ----------------------- From its inception, Oak has been committed to a worldwide marketing strategy. We utilize a direct sales force in the United States, Japan, Taiwan and Korea and a worldwide network of manufacturers' representatives and distributors in North America, Europe and Asia. While customers around the world have many needs in common, each region has its own requirements. In order to support customers in key geographic markets, we have established sales and support offices in Woburn, Massachusetts; Yokohama City, Kanagawa, Japan; Taipei, Taiwan; and Seoul, Korea, in addition to our corporate headquarters in Sunnyvale, California. We believe that sales and technical 10 support personnel based in our regional offices understand the technical needs, business philosophy and culture of their respective customers. On-site personnel are trained to respond to customer needs efficiently and effectively. We believe that customer service and technical support are important competitive factors in the optical storage and digital imaging markets. With a global presence, we are able to provide prompt technical support to our customers worldwide. In addition, the Company's representatives travel frequently to customer sites as part of the product development cycle. We provide several other types of technical support, including software distribution through an electronic bulletin board, evaluation boards, product demonstration software, engineering design kits and application notes. We work closely with customers in qualification of our products and providing needed quality and reliability data. In addition, we make the latest revision of our software available to our customers under maintenance agreements and can customize our software to a customer's specific requirements. Sales of our products are made pursuant to purchase orders and long-term agreements covering licensing, maintenance, engineering services, royalties and other fees. Purchase orders are subject to price renegotiations and to changes in quantities of products and delivery schedules in order to reflect changes in the customers' requirements. In addition, in certain circumstances, orders may be canceled at the discretion of the buyer without penalty, resulting in potential inventory reserves for Oak. Our business, consistent with that of others in the semiconductor industry, is generally characterized by long supply lead times limited by foundry capacity and at times significantly shorter order lead-times from customers. This can put Oak in the position of taking inventory risk in order to ensure that it will have product available for its customers. Actual shipments of our products depend on the manufacturing capacity of Oak's foundries. Therefore, as foundry capacity tightens, we may not be able to meet the customer's requested delivery date or we may have to allocate the quantity of available products among our customers. Due to our dependence on third party manufacturing capacity, we believe that backlog at any particular date may not be indicative of actual net revenues for any future period. Sales of CD-RW and "Combo" controller products comprised 67%, 66%, and 42% of Oak's total revenues in fiscal 2002, 2001, and 2000, respectively. Sales of CD-RW and Combo controller products are expected to continue to account for a majority of our total revenues for the foreseeable future. Sales of our Imaging Group products accounted for 33% of our net revenue in fiscal 2002. Although we have recently introduced several new products in an attempt to diversify our product and market base, we cannot predict whether these products will be successfully designed, accepted by our customers, and brought to production or whether our customers' products will be accepted in the marketplace. A substantial majority of our revenues in fiscal 2002, 2001, and 2000 were derived outside of the United States, primarily in Asia. Including the results of the Xionics acquisition beginning in fiscal 2000, the geographical areas accounting for our net revenues in fiscal 2002, 2001, and 2000 are as follows:
June 30, --------------------------- 2002 2001 2000 ---- ---- ---- Japan............................................. 39% 40% 32% Korea............................................. 22% 37% 34% Taiwan............................................ 14% 5% 1% North America..................................... 11% 16% 25% Philippines....................................... 11% -- -- Europe............................................ 2% 1% 4% Other............................................. 1% 1% 4% --- --- --- 100% 100% 100% === === ===
Accordingly, we are subject to the risks of conducting business outside of the United States. These risks include unexpected changes in, or impositions of, legislative or regulatory requirements, delays resulting from difficulty in obtaining export licenses for certain technology, tariffs, quotas and other trade barriers and restrictions, longer payment cycles, greater difficulty in accounts receivable collection, potentially adverse taxes, the burdens of 11 complying with a variety of foreign laws and other factors beyond our control. We are also subject to general geopolitical risks in connection with our international operations, such as political, social and economic instability, potential hostilities and changes in diplomatic and trade relationships. In addition, the laws of certain foreign countries in which our products are or may be developed, manufactured or sold, including various countries in Asia, may not protect our products or intellectual property rights to the same extent as do the laws of the United States. This increases the likelihood of piracy of our technology and products. Although most of our foreign sales are negotiated in U.S. dollars, invoicing is occasionally done in local currency. As a result, unless we hedge the position we may be subject to the risks of currency fluctuations. One or more of the above factors may adversely affect our operations in the future or require us to modify our current business practices. A limited number of customers historically have accounted for a substantial portion of Oak's net revenues. In fiscal 2002, 2001, and 2000, sales to our top ten customers accounted for approximately 69%, 82%, and 78%, respectively, of our total net revenues. In fiscal 2002, LG Electronics accounted for 20% of total net revenues while Mitsumi and Ionics (Philips) each accounted for 11% of total net revenues. In fiscal 2001, LG Electronics accounted for 31% of total net revenues. In fiscal 2000, LG Electronics accounted for 26% of total net revenues and Hewlett-Packard Company accounted for 16%. We expect that sales to a limited number of customers will continue to account for a substantial portion of our net revenues for the foreseeable future. We do not have long-term purchase agreements with any of our customers. Customers generally purchase our products subject to cancelable short-term purchase orders. We cannot predict whether our current customers will continue to place orders or whether existing orders will be canceled. We have experienced significant changes from year to year in the composition of our major customer base and believe this pattern will continue. Our revenues from the Optical Storage Group will also depend on whether our OEM customers are successful in selling their optical drives both in aftermarket and to PC OEM customers. In part, to address this risk, we are continuing our efforts to increase penetration in existing large customers as well as engage new large OEM customers. The current weakness in demand being experienced in semiconductor and PC markets, coupled with the overall poor macroeconomic environment, however, makes it difficult to forecast future financial performance. In addition, some of our customers have chosen, and may continue to choose, to award their design wins and business on a project-by-project basis to different vendors. The current economic recession notwithstanding, the loss of, or a significant reduction in, purchases or commitments from current major customers which is not offset by corresponding increases from other current or future customers would have a material adverse effect on our financial performance, our business, overall financial condition and results of operations. If sales to current customers cease or are reduced, we may be unable to obtain the orders from new customers necessary to offset any such losses or reductions. Moreover, we may not be able to qualify our independent foundries for potential new customers or do so in a timely manner. We currently place non-cancelable orders to purchase our products from independent foundries on an approximately three month rolling basis. Our customers generally place purchase orders with the Optical Storage Group with less than four weeks lead time, and with the Imaging Group with between six to ten weeks lead time. These purchase orders may be rescheduled or under certain circumstances may be canceled without penalty. Consequently, if anticipated sales and shipments in any quarter are rescheduled, canceled or do not occur as quickly as expected, expense and inventory levels could be disproportionately high and our business, financial condition and results of operations for that quarter or for the year would suffer. Competition ----------- The optical storage and imaging markets in which we compete are intensely competitive and are characterized by rapid technological change, declining unit average selling price ("ASPs") and rapid product obsolescence. We are currently experiencing intense competition in both the optical storage and imaging markets, and expect competition to increase in the future from existing competitors and from other companies that may enter our existing or future markets with solutions that may be less costly or provide higher performance or additional features. Our existing and potential competitors include many large domestic and international companies that have 12 substantially greater financial, manufacturing, technical, marketing, distribution and other resources, broader product lines and longer standing relationships with customers than we have. Our competitors also include a number of emerging companies, such as Via Technologies, Inc. and Ali Corporation, both of whom recently announced their entry into the CD-RW controller market. Some of our principal competitors in the optical storage market maintain their own semiconductor foundries and may benefit from certain capacity, cost, quality control and technological advantages. In general, we believe that our ability to compete successfully depends on a number of factors, both within and outside of our control, including: o the price, quality and performance of our products and our customers' products, o the timing and success of new product introductions by us, our customers and our competitors, o the emergence of new industry standards, o the development of technical innovations, o the ability to obtain adequate foundry capacity and sources of raw materials, o the efficiency of production, o the rate at which our customers design our products into their products, o the market acceptance of the products of our customers, o the assertion of intellectual property rights and o general market and economic conditions. We cannot predict whether we will be able to compete successfully in the future based on these, or other, factors. The willingness of prospective customers to design Oak products into their products depends, to a significant extent, upon our ability to have product available at the appropriate market window, and to price our products at a level that is cost effective for such customers. The markets for most of the applications for our products, particularly the optical market, are characterized by intense price competition. As the markets for our products mature and competition increases, we anticipate that ASPs on our products will decline. If we are unable to reduce our costs sufficiently to offset declines in ASPs or are unable to successfully introduce new higher-performance products with higher ASPs, our business, financial condition and result of operations will be adversely affected. If we experience yield or other production problems, or shortages of supply that increase our manufacturing costs, or fail to reduce our manufacturing costs, the result could seriously harm our business. Our current Optical Storage business is focused in the fast growing CD-RW segment, where we currently participate with our high integration controllers and analog front-end devices. Major competitors in the high integration controller area include Sanyo, MediaTek and Ricoh, all established suppliers in this market. Emerging competitors that will be offering integrated controllers for CD-RW include Via Technologies, Inc., Ali Corporation and Cheertek Inc. Another competitor in this market is NEC, which offers an integrated Combo solution. In the analog front-end market, the established competitors include MediaTek, AKM, Sony Semiconductor and Rohm. In the digital imaging market, our primary product offerings target the niche, mid-range market and our merchant competition does not offer directly competitive products. In some cases, the merchant competition offers a subset of our product features. In other cases, the merchant competition offers a software alternative to our hardware solution. Our competitors in the merchant market are major semiconductor suppliers such as Conexant, Motorola and Texas Instruments. However, we expect direct merchant competition in the niche, high-end digital imaging equipment market to emerge in the near future. Despite this lack of direct competition in the merchant market, we do experience competition with our DSP, compression and resolution enhancement products from internal design groups within our targeted customers, such as Xerox, HP, and Canon. As with the merchant market, one of our strengths in competing with these internal design teams comes from the breadth of the solutions we are 13 able to provide. We must continue to enhance and strengthen our software capabilities in order to compete successfully in this market. As to the new lower-end of products we are developing for the digital imaging equipment market, we expect greater direct competition than we currently experience in the niche, mid-range market. In the market for embedded printer systems, we, through our Imaging Group's IPS product line, have one primary competitor, Adobe Systems Incorporated, which has significantly greater resources than we do. Adobe was the developer of the PostScript page description language, which has a significant brand name image. Adobe's change in its licensing practices to make PostScript source code available to certain of its development partners may enable Adobe to compete more effectively against us. A few other companies, including Peerless Systems Corporation and Electronics for Imaging, Inc., offer products and services that compete with our systems software and integrated controller offerings. Our most significant competitor in the area of controller design remains OEMs' in-house development organizations. In addition, there are a few other merchant suppliers including Global Graphics and some large OEMs develop their own proprietary PDL components as well. In the market for printer driver software, we compete primarily with a small number of companies, including Adobe and Software 2000 Limited, who also offer such software. In addition, a few OEMs have their own internal driver development capacity. With the advent of a "Uni-driver" architecture from Microsoft the need for separate unique driver development is going away. Therefore this is an area the Company has sought to de-emphasize as a standalone product offering. In the market for engineering services and manufacturing services, we compete primarily with OEM's internal development and manufacturing groups, as well as with third-party design houses, contract manufacturers and our competitors in other markets. Research and Development ------------------------ We currently invest substantial resources in our product development efforts. During fiscal 2002, 2001, and 2000, we spent approximately $53.2 million, $50.6 million and $49.2 million, respectively, on research and development activities. We intend to continue to invest in the development of products in each of our core technologies and in products that integrate our core technologies. Our performance strongly depends upon the successful development and timely introduction of new products at competitive price and performance levels. We cannot predict whether products currently under development or any other new products will be successfully developed or will achieve market acceptance. If we fail to introduce new products successfully or if our new products fail to achieve market acceptance, our business, financial condition and results of operations would be adversely affected. The success of new product introductions is dependent on several factors, including recognition of market requirements, product cost, timely completion and introduction of new product designs, quality of new products and achievement of acceptable manufacturing yields from our contract manufacturers. Due in part to the design complexity of our products, we have in the past experienced delays in completing development and introduction of new products. We may encounter similar delays in the development and introduction of future products. We may not be successful in identifying new product opportunities and developing and bringing new products to market in a timely manner. In addition, our products may not be selected for design into the products of our targeted customers. Products or technologies developed by others may also render our products or technologies obsolete or noncompetitive. The failure of our new product development efforts or our failure to achieve market acceptance of our new products would have a material adverse affect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. 14 Proprietary Rights and Licenses ------------------------------- Our ability to compete is affected by our ability to protect our proprietary information. We consider our technology to be proprietary and rely on a combination of patents, trademarks, copyrights, trade secret laws, confidentiality procedures and licensing arrangements to protect our intellectual property rights. We currently have patents granted, patents pending, patents in preparation in the United States, and international patents pending. Oak's first patent was issued in 1996. Currently our patent position is 105 patents issued, 97 of which are issued in the United States, and 151 patent applications on file, 135 of which are pending in the United States Patent and Trademark Office. Accordingly, the duration of Oak's material patents are no less than 11 years. We intend to seek additional international and United States patents on our strategic technology. However, additional patents might not be issued from our applications that are currently pending or being prepared. In addition, we may not be issued additional patents in all countries where our products can be sold. Any claims allowed from pending applications or applications in preparation may not be of sufficient scope or strength to provide meaningful protection or any commercial advantage to us. Our competitors may also be able to design around our patents. There can be no assurance that any patents we hold will not be challenged, invalidated or circumvented, or that the rights granted thereunder will provide competitive advantages to us. An action is currently pending in the Northern District of California seeking to invalidate one of our patents relating to our Optical Storage products (See Legal Proceedings). Moreover, while we hold or have applied for patents relating to the design of our products, our products are based in part on industry standards, and we do not hold patents on such standards. The laws of certain foreign countries in which our products are or may be manufactured or sold, including various countries in Asia, may not protect our products or intellectual property rights to the same extent as do the laws of the United States and thus make the possibility of piracy of our technology and products more likely. The steps taken by Oak to protect its proprietary information may be inadequate to prevent misappropriation of its technology. Our competitors may also independently develop technologies that are substantially equivalent or superior to our technology. The semiconductor industry is characterized by vigorous protection and pursuit of intellectual property rights, which has resulted in significant, often protracted and expensive litigation. Oak or its foundries may, from time to time, be notified of claims that we may be infringing patents or other intellectual property rights owned by third parties. We may, if it is necessary or desirable, seek licenses under such patents or other intellectual property rights. However, licenses that we seek may not be offered or the terms of any offered licenses may not be acceptable to us. The failure to obtain a license from a third party for technology used by us could cause us to incur substantial liabilities and to suspend the manufacture of products or the use by our foundries of processes requiring the technology. Furthermore, Oak may initiate claims or litigation against third parties for infringement of our proprietary rights or to establish the validity of our proprietary rights. We may also be required under a contractual obligation to defend our customers against claims by third parties that the use of our products infringe a third party's proprietary rights. Oak has historically indemnified its customers for certain costs and damages of patent infringement in circumstances where an Oak product is the factor creating the customer's infringement exposure. This practice generally excludes coverage in circumstances where infringement arises out of the combination of Oak products with products of others or where infringement arises based on modifications made by the customer to Oak's products. In January 2001, Samsung was notified by Pitney Bowes that its use of Oak's resolution enhancement technology ("iRET") infringed Pitney Bowes U.S. Patent No. 4,386,272. Oak is defending Samsung against this allegation of infringement pursuant to its indemnification obligation under an earlier license agreement between Samsung and XLI, a subsidiary of Oak. Litigation by or against Oak could result in significant expense to Oak and divert the efforts of our technical and management personnel, whether or not such litigation results in a favorable determination for us. In the event of an adverse result in any such litigation, we could be required to pay substantial damages, cease the manufacture, use and sale of infringing products, expend significant resources to develop non-infringing technology, discontinue the use of certain processes or obtain licenses to the infringing technology. There can be no assurance that we would be successful in such development or that such licenses would be available on reasonable terms, or at 15 all, and any such development or license could require expenditures by Oak of substantial time and other resources. Patent disputes in the semiconductor industry have often been settled through cross-licensing arrangements. Even though we have grown and continue to grow our patent portfolio, we may not be able to settle an alleged patent infringement claim through a cross-licensing arrangement. If a successful claim is made against Oak or its customers and a license is not made available to Oak on commercially reasonable terms or we are required to pay substantial damages or awards, our business, financial condition and results of operations would be materially adversely affected. We generally enter into confidentiality agreements with our employees and confidentiality and license agreements with our customers and potential customers. We also limit access to and distribution of the source and object code of our software and other proprietary information. Under some circumstances, however, we grant licenses that give our customers limited access to the source code of our software which increases the likelihood of misappropriation or misuse of our technology. Accordingly, despite precautions taken by Oak, it may be possible for unauthorized third parties to copy certain portions of our technology or to obtain and use information that we regard as proprietary. The steps taken by Oak may not be adequate to prevent misappropriation of its technology or to provide an adequate remedy in the event of a breach or misappropriation by others. We have licensed technology from third parties for use in our optical storage and digital imaging equipment business. Under these licenses, we are required to fulfill confidentiality obligations and in certain cases pay royalties. Some of our products require that certain copy protection software or other software be obtained if the products are to be marketable and exportable. Should we lose our rights to or be unable to obtain the necessary copy protection software, we would be unable to sell and market certain of our Optical Storage products geared for the DVD market. We have also entered into a number of joint development and supply arrangements under which we jointly develop a product with another company or contract with another company to develop a product or component and then purchase the product or component from that company for resale with our other products. The terms of these arrangements may require us to defend and indemnify another company using our technology in the event claims are asserted that the technology infringes the rights of a third party. In addition, we have on occasion purchased off the shelf products to resell bundled with our own product. At times it is necessary or desirable for us to seek additional licenses to intellectual property rights held by third parties or purchase products manufactured or sold by third parties with respect to some or all of our product offerings. These licenses or purchases may not be available on terms acceptable to us, if at all. If we are unable to enter such license arrangements on acceptable terms or to maintain our current licenses on acceptable terms, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations-Factors That May Affect Future Results-Oak May Be Unable to Protect Its Intellectual Property and Proprietary Rights" and "-Oak May Be Unable to Obtain Third Party Intellectual Property Rights and/or May Be Liable for Significant Damages" below. 16 Management ---------- The executive officers of Oak are elected by and serve at the discretion of the Board of Directors. As of August 1, 2002, Oak's executive officers were as follows:
Name Age Position ---- --- -------- Young K. Sohn .................... 46 Chairman of the Board of Directors, President and Chief Executive Officer John S. Edmunds................... 45 Senior Vice President of Finance, and Chief Financial Officer Simon P. Dolan.................... 43 Senior Vice President and General Manager of Imaging Group David J. Power.................... 45 Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary
Mr. Sohn joined Oak as President and Chief Executive Officer in February -------- 1999. He has also been a Director of Oak since January 1998. In March of 2002 Mr. Sohn assumed the responsibilities of acting General Manager for the Optical Storage Group. Prior to joining us, and since January 1993, Mr. Sohn was employed by Quantum Corporation, most recently as President of its Hard Disk Drive Business. From August 1983 to January 1993, he acted as Director of Marketing at Intel Corporation. Mr. Sohn currently serves on the Board of Directors of PLX Corporation, Inc. He holds a B.S. in electrical engineering from the University of Pennsylvania and a M.S. (M.B.A) from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Mr. Edmunds joined Oak as Vice President of Finance and Chief Financial ----------- Officer in January 2000. In March of 2001 he was promoted to Senior Vice President. For a two year period prior to joining Oak, he served as Corporate Controller and Director of Internal Audit at Electronics for Imaging ("EFI") in Foster City, California. In addition, he spent 11 years with Tandem Computers where his last position was VP of Tandem Computers Credit Corporation. Previously, Mr. Edmunds was a C.P.A. for seven years with Coopers & Lybrand in both San Francisco and San Jose. Mr. Edmunds holds a B.S. degree in Business Administration from the University of California. Mr. Dolan became Vice President and General Manager of Oak's Imaging Group --------- in April 2000. In March of 2001 he was promoted to Senior Vice President. He joined Oak as Vice President of Corporate Marketing and Strategy in October 1999. Before joining Oak, Mr. Dolan was VP of Marketing at LSI Logic's Consumer Division. Mr. Dolan spent 11 years at LSI Logic in the U.S., Europe, and Asia. Before that he was VP of Strategic Marketing for LSI's products group, and VP of Marketing for LSI Logic Europe PLC. Mr. Dolan held roles in product marketing, field applications, and engineering at Inmos Corporation before joining LSI in 1988. A native of the UK, Mr. Dolan has degrees from the Universities of London and Oxford. Mr. Power joined Oak as Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary in --------- July of 2000. Prior to joining us, he was Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary for inSilicon Corporation, a semiconductor IP company that was formed as a subsidiary of Phoenix Technologies Ltd. and spun off in an IPO in March of 2000. From October 1997 to September of 2000, he was Associate General Counsel of Phoenix Technologies. Mr. Power holds a B.S. in Engineering from Arizona State University and a J.D. from The John Marshall Law School in Chicago, Illinois. He is licensed to practice law in California and before the United States Patent and Trademark Office. 17 Employees --------- As of June 30, 2002, Oak had 453 full-time employees. We believe that our future performance will depend, in part, on our ability to continue to attract and retain qualified technical and management personnel, particularly highly skilled design engineers and software programmers involved in new product development. Our employees are not represented by any collective bargaining unit and we have never experienced a work stoppage. We believe that our employee relations are good. ITEM 2. PROPERTIES Our executive offices and principal marketing, sales and product development operations are located in approximately 89,000 square feet of leased space in Sunnyvale, California, under a non-cancelable operating lease that expires in November 2006. We also own a portion of a building in Taipei, Taiwan. We lease facilities, primarily for sales, product development, and technical support, in Woburn, Massachusetts; Osaka and Yokohama City, Kanagawa Japan; Manchester, England; Dortmund, Germany; and Seoul, Korea. In July of 2000, we moved our two existing workforces in the Boston area into one 82,000 square feet leased facility in Woburn, Massachusetts primarily for sales, product development, technical support and administrative functions. Approximately 8,900 square feet of that lease has been sublet to a third party until September 2003. As a result of the new Woburn facility, we had subleased 33,000 square feet in Andover, Massachusetts, and intend to continue to sublease out this facility and a portion of our facilities in Austin, Texas and Woburn, Massachusetts. We believe our existing facilities will be adequate to meet our requirements for at least the next fiscal year. ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS Oak and various of its directors and former officers are parties to a consolidated class action lawsuit filed on behalf of all persons who purchased or acquired Oak common stock (excluding the defendants and parties related to them) for the period July 27, 1995 through May 22, 1996. This state court proceeding, designated IN RE OAK TECHNOLOGY SECURITIES LITIGATION, Master File No. CV758510 was filed in Santa Clara County Superior Court in Santa Clara, California. The plaintiffs alleged violations of California securities laws and statutory deceit provisions as well as breaches of fiduciary duty and abuse of control. The plaintiffs sought unspecified monetary damages. The court dismissed all claims except the California Corporations Code Sections 25400/25500 cause of action against Oak, four officers and Oak's investment bankers and securities analysts. On July 16, 1998, the court provisionally certified a national class of all persons who purchased Oak stock during the class period. On August 5, 2000 the court granted Company's motion for summary judgment and entered judgment in favor of Oak. The plaintiffs have appealed the court's decision which is currently under review by the Sixth District Court of Appeal. Based on its current information, Oak believes this suit to be without merit and will continue to defend its position vigorously. Although it is a remote possibility, the court's ruling may be overturned on appeal and Oak may incur a loss upon an adverse conclusion of these claims, an estimate of any such loss cannot be made. Additionally, various Oak's directors and former officers are defendants in three consolidated derivative actions pending in Santa Clara County Superior Court in Santa Clara, California, entitled IN RE OAK TECHNOLOGY DERIVATIVE ACTION, Master File No. CV758510. This lawsuit, which asserts a claim for breach of fiduciary duty and a claim under California securities law based upon the officers' and directors' trading in securities of Oak during the period July 27, 1995 through May 22, 1996, has been stayed pending resolution of the above described class actions. The plaintiffs are seeking monetary damages, equitable relief and an accounting for the defendants' sales of shares of Oak common stock. Based on its current information, Oak believes the suits to be 18 without merit and will defend its position vigorously. Although it is reasonably possible Oak may incur a loss upon conclusion of these claims, an estimate of any such loss cannot be made. If any of the above pending actions are decided adversely to Oak, it would likely have a material adverse affect on Oak's financial condition, cash flows and results of operations. On October 27, 1997, Oak filed a complaint in the United States District Court, Northern District of California against UMC for breach of contract, breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing and fraud based on UMC's breach of a settlement agreement entered into by Oak and UMC as a means to resolve an ITC action filed by Oak based on Oak's belief that UMC was violating U.S. trade laws by the unlicensed importing or selling of certain CD-ROM controllers that infringed one or more of Oak's United States patents. Under the terms of the settlement agreement, effective July 31, 1997, UMC agreed to cease and desist the manufacture and/or importation into the United States of its specified CD-ROM controllers, except under certain limited conditions which expired on January 31, 1998. The settlement agreement additionally provided for the withdrawal of Oak's ITC complaint against UMC. On December 24, 1997, UMC answered Oak's complaint and counterclaimed by asserting causes of action for rescission, restitution, fraudulent concealment, mistake, lack of mutuality, interference and declaratory judgment of non- infringement, invalidity and unenforceability of the Oak patent that was the subject of the ITC action filed against UMC. In a related action to the lawsuit that was commenced by Oak against UMC, on December 19, 1997, MediaTek, a UMC affiliated, Taiwanese entity, filed a complaint in the United States District Court, Northern District of California, against Oak for declaratory judgment of non-infringement, invalidity and unenforceability of the Oak patent that was the subject of the original ITC action against UMC, and intentional interference with prospective economic advantage. Oak filed its answer on January 8, 1998, denying all the allegations. Oak believes UMC's counterclaims and Mediatek's claims to be without merit. On June 11, 1998, the cases were consolidated for all purposes and stayed under 28 U.S.C. Section 1659, based on the judge's conclusion that the civil action involves the same issues before the International Trade Commission, initiated by Oak a second time as a result of the alleged breach of the settlement agreement. The stay was lifted due to the final resolution of the second ITC investigation and the decision of the Federal Circuit Court of Appeals on May 2, 2001 affirming the Commission's determination that there was no infringement of Oak's U.S. Patent No. 5,581, 715. The Federal Circuit Court of Appeals did not review the Commission's determination that Oak's U.S. Patent No. 5,581,715 was valid and enforceable. As a result of the decision rendered by the Federal Circuit Court of Appeals, and the lifting of the stay on the consolidated action pending in the United States District Court, Northern District of California, the parties are proceeding with the litigation. The trial is scheduled to commence in January 2003. If any of the above pending actions with respect to UMC and MediaTek are decided adversely to Oak, it would likely have a material adverse affect on Oak's financial condition, cash flows and results of operations. On January 4, 2001 Samsung Electronics, a customer of Oak's Imaging Group, received a notification from Pitney Bowes alleging that the resolution enhancement technology (iRET) Samsung acquired from Xerographic Laser Images Corporation, Inc. ("XLI") in 1996 infringes Pitney Bowes U.S. Patent No. 4,386,272 ("272 patent"). XLI is a subsidiary of Oak as a result of an acquisition in the first quarter of fiscal year 1999. The terms of the agreement for the licensing of the iRET technology to Samsung require Oak, as successor in interest to XLI's assets and liabilities, to defend and indemnify Samsung from claims alleging the iRET technology supplied to Samsung infringes the intellectual property rights of a third party. On June 18, 2001 Pitney Bowes filed a complaint in the District Court of Connecticut, naming Samsung and others, claiming infringement of the '272 patent. On June 28, 2001 Samsung formally requested Oak to defend Samsung and Oak agreed to do so. Other XLI customers are also subject to Pitney Bowes allegation of infringement of the '272 patent. On September 7, 2001, Oak filed a motion to intervene on behalf of ourselves and for the benefit of any of our customers who may be subject to the Pitney Bowes allegations, in the District Court of Connecticut. The motion to intervene was granted on December 12, 2001. On 19 February 5, 2002, this action was transferred to the United States District Court, District of Kentucky. The parties are proceeding with this litigation. If the above pending action, with respect to Oak's indemnification obligation in such action, is decided adversely, it would likely have a material adverse affect on Oak's financial condition, cash flows and results of operations. In January of 2002, Oak received a notice letter of infringement from Syndia Corporation, an assignee of U.S. Patent No. 4,702, 808 (" '808 patent") and U.S. Patent No. 5,131,941(" '941 patent") issued to Mr. Jerome Lemelson. The '808 and '941 patents claim certain plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition etch processes that are used in the manufacture of semiconductor chips. The notice letter asserts that Oak's use and sale of semiconductor chips manufactured using processes claimed by the '808 and '941 patents constitutes an infringement. Oak uses TSMC to manufacture its semiconductor products, and has notified TSMC of the claims made by Syndia. The terms of an indemnification agreement between Oak and TSMC require TSMC to indemnify Oak from claims alleging the manufacturing processes used by TSMC infringes the intellectual property rights of a third party. Pursuant to the terms of the indemnification agreement between the parties, TSMC has agreed to indemnify and hold Oak harmless against the claims made by Syndia. If TSMC fails to indemnify and hold Oak harmless, and Syndia is successful in its claim for infringement, it would likely have a material adverse affect on Oak's financial condition, cash flows and results of operations. ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS None. 20 PART II ITEM 5.

General ------- Oak designs, develops and markets high performance integrated semiconductors, software and platform solutions to original equipment manufacturers ("OEMs") worldwide that serve the optical storage and digital imaging equipment markets. Our digital imaging products consist of semiconductor hardware and software that enables users to print, scan, process and transmit documents to computer peripherals that perform printing functions. Our Optical Storage products consist primarily of integrated circuits and supporting software and firmware, all designed to store and distribute digital content, thereby enabling our customers to deliver cost-effective, powerful systems to the end user for the home and enterprise. Our mission is to be a leading solutions provider for the storage and distribution of digital content. Oak's operations are organized along its two market-focused groups: the Optical Storage Group and the Imaging Group. The Imaging Group is comprised of the combination of our Xionics Document Technologies, Inc. and Pixel Magic subsidiaries, serving the digital imaging equipment market. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2002, Oak reported a net loss of $27.0 million after accounting for $12.6 million of amortization for intangible assets, $3.2 million of restructuring costs, $1.6 million impairment loss from certain equity securities received by Oak from the sale of its Consumer business group to Conexant in fiscal 2000 and $0.5 million of non-recurring legal expenses related to the investigation of a potential one time acquisition project. During fiscal 2002, Oak's revenues continued to be negatively impacted by inventory corrections occurring in the semiconductor industry and the generally weak global economic market which particularly impacted the Company's Optical Storage business, which historically has accounted for approximately 67% of the Company's revenues. The Company cannot predict when the economic recovery, particularly in the semiconductor market, will begin, or if during any recovery, what will be the Company's product's ultimate level of customer acceptance, shipment volumes, product life or the impact of that acceptance or product life on future operating results. Oak's quarterly and annual operating results have been, and will continue to be, affected by a wide variety of factors that could have a material adverse effect on revenues and profitability during any particular period, including competitive pressures on selling prices, availability and cost of foundry capacity and raw materials, fluctuations in yield, loss of any strategic relationships, its ability to introduce new products in accordance with 23 ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - (Continued) OEM design requirements and design cycles, rate of adoption of new technology, rate of growth of the DVD Recordable, CD-RW and Combo market, changes in product mix or distribution channels, demand for semiconductors and end-user products incorporating semiconductors, technological difficulties and resource constraints encountered in developing and/or using new products, new product introductions by its competitors, and market acceptance of product sold by both Oak and its customers. In addition, our operating results are subject to fluctuations in the markets for our customers' products, particularly the consumer electronics and personal computer markets, which have been extremely volatile in the past. Oak has devoted a substantial portion of its research and development efforts in recent quarters to developing chips used in DVD systems, CD-RW controllers and inkjet multi-function peripherals. Our DVD, CD-RW, and digital Imaging products are subject to the new product risks described in the preceding paragraph, including in particular our ability to timely introduce these products and the market's acceptance of them, which could have a materially adverse effect on our operating results. Results of Operations --------------------- The following table sets forth, as a percentage of net revenues, certain consolidated statement of operations data for the periods indicated:

(18.4)% (17.4)% (38.0)% ====== ====== ====== ------------------------------ (*) "Cost of product revenues" and "Cost of software and other revenues" are expressed as a percentage of "Product revenues" or "Software and other revenues", respectively. All other line items are expressed as a percentage of total revenues.
Fiscal 2002 As Compared To Fiscal 2001 -------------------------------------- Revenues. Total revenues decreased 17% to $146.6 million for fiscal 2002 -------- compared to $176.2 million for fiscal year 2001. The $29.6 million decrease in revenues is comprised of the decrease in Optical Storage revenues of $18.2 million from $116.9 million in fiscal 2001 to $98.7 million in fiscal 2002 and the decrease in Imaging revenues by $11.4 million from $59.3 million in fiscal 2001 to $47.9 million in fiscal 2002 (see Segment Information footnote 17 to the financial statements for financial information by business segment). This decrease 24 ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - (Continued) was directly attributable to the overall global economic slowdown encountered in the high technology sector which began to impact Oak during the second half of fiscal 2001. In addition pressure on average selling prices is constant and also serves to significantly reduce revenue in any given quarter by as much as 2%-10%. The decrease in Imaging revenues is primarily a result of a decline in the Hewlett Packard business due to final bookings in paid up license fees in December 2000, a decline in driver development business and the overall economic slowdown experienced in the high technology sector. For fiscal years 2002, 2001 and 2000, sales to Oak's top ten customers accounted for approximately 69%, 82% and 77%, respectively, of Oak's net revenues. In fiscal 2002, LG Electronics accounted for 20% of total net revenues while Mitsumi and Ionics (Philips) each accounted for 11% of total net revenues. In fiscal 2001, LG Electronics accounted for 31% of total net revenues. In fiscal 2000, LG Electronics accounted for 26% of total net revenues and Hewlett-Packard Company accounted for 16% of total net revenues. From a geographic point of view (see Marketing and Customers in Part I) the Company is doing more business in Taiwan and the Philippines and less business in Korea as a result of a shift in customers. In general more of the consumer electronics manufacturing business for Optical Storage and Imaging in the far east is moving toward lower labor cost markets like Taiwan and China. We expect that sales to a limited number of customers will continue to account for a substantial portion of our net revenues for the foreseeable future. We do not have long-term purchase agreements with any of our customers. Customers generally purchase our products subject to cancelable short-term purchase orders. We cannot predict whether our current customers will continue to place orders or whether existing orders will be canceled. We have experienced significant changes from year to year in the composition of our major customer base and believe this pattern will continue. Our revenues from the Optical Storage Group will also depend on whether our OEM customers are successful in selling their optical drives both in aftermarket and to PC OEM customers. In part, to address this risk, we are continuing our efforts to increase penetration in existing large customers as well as engage new large OEM customers. The current weakness in demand being experienced in semiconductor and PC markets, coupled with the overall poor macroeconomic environment, however, makes it difficult to forecast future financial performance. In addition, some of our customers have chosen, and may continue to choose, to award their design wins and business on a project-by-project basis to different vendors. The current economic recession notwithstanding, the loss of, or a significant reduction in, purchases or commitments by current major customers which is not offset by corresponding increases from other current or future customers would have a material adverse effect on our financial performance, our business, overall financial condition and results of operations. If sales to current customers cease or are reduced, we may be unable to obtain the orders from new customers necessary to offset any such losses or reductions. Moreover, we may not be able to qualify our independent foundries for potential new customers or do so in a timely manner. Cost of Revenues. Product cost of revenues includes the cost of wafer ---------------- fabrication, assembly and testing performed by third-party vendors and direct and indirect costs associated with the procurement, scheduling and quality assurance functions performed by Oak. Software and other cost of revenues consist of labor associated with other smaller streams of revenue associated with nonrecurring engineering services and OEM maintenance and support, the costs of software documentation as well as royalties that may be due to third parties. Gross margins remained constant at 48% in fiscal 2002 and fiscal 2001. This was primarily a result of the consistent product mix between Optical Storage and Imaging products between fiscal 2001 and 2002. In fiscal 2002, the Company recorded inventory write-down charges of $4.1 million primarily related to Optical Storage products compared to the $5.6 million taken in fiscal 2001. These charges were recorded as a result of the continued reduction in demand of the Oak's products due to the worldwide PC and semiconductor slowdown beginning in the December quarter of 2000. 25 ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - (Continued) Gross margins for the Optical Storage segment, including the effects of inventory charges, was 34% for fiscal 2002 as compared to 35% in fiscal 2001. This decrease is primarily due to the decline in average selling prices due to increased competition and faster speed transitions. Gross margin for the Imaging business segment was 78% for fiscal 2002, compared to 74% for fiscal 2001. This was mostly due to the change in product mix comprised of a larger percentage of licensing and maintenance revenues which have maintained higher margins compared to other Imaging products. Oak's overall gross margin is subject to change due to various factors, including, among others, competitive product pricing, yields, wafer costs, assembly and test costs and product mix. We expect that average selling prices ("ASPs") for our existing products will decline over time and ASPs for each new product will decline significantly over the life of the product. In addition, given the extremely competitive nature of the optical storage market, we believe that gross margins for new products in the optical storage market may be lower than historical levels and that, as a result, gross margins in general may decline in the future. Research and Development Expenses. Research and development costs are --------------------------------- expensed as incurred. Research and development expenses were $53.2 million and $50.6 million for fiscal 2002 and 2001, respectively, and expressed as a percentage of net revenues were 36% and 29%, respectively. Research and development expenses increased as a percentage of net revenues primarily attributable to the decrease in the Company's net revenues. Approximately 65% of the Company's current investment in research and development is made in Optical Storage. In general, management recognizes that as the result of recent market conditions and revenue levels, research and development spending at the rate of 36% of revenues on an ongoing basis is higher than we would prefer and if revenue levels do not improve, we are continuing to look at the requirements and expected return for our current research and development programs as well as ways that it could be improved, or potentially leveraged by working with other companies. This may or may not result in future adjustments to the absolute level of research and development spending. Nevertheless, the Company will continue to invest substantial resources in research and development of new products in the Company's target markets: optical storage and digital imaging. Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and -------------------------------------------- administrative ("SG&A") expenses decreased 14% to $31.5 million in fiscal 2002 from $36.6 million in fiscal 2001 respectively, and expressed as a percentage of net revenues were 22% and 21%, respectively. The decrease was primarily attributable to headcount related expenses that were recorded during fiscal 2001 that were not recorded during fiscal 2002, and to a lesser extent, decreases in consulting expenses. The decrease was also attributable to a decrease in sales expenses as a result of lower revenues during fiscal 2002 as compared to fiscal 2001. SG&A expenses increased as a percentage of net revenues for the current fiscal periods over the comparable periods in the prior year due to a decrease in the Company's net revenues. Amortization of Intangibles. Amortization of intangible assets decreased --------------------------- to $12.6 million for fiscal 2002 compared to $14.7 million in fiscal 2001. The year over year decrease is a result of the completion of amortization of certain intangible assets as they became fully amortized. In July 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets", which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. SFAS No. 142 requires, among other things, the discontinuance of goodwill amortization. In addition, the standard includes provisions upon adoption for the reclassification of certain existing recognized intangibles as goodwill, reassessment of the useful lives of existing recognized intangibles, reclassification of certain intangibles out of previously reported goodwill and the testing for impairment of existing goodwill and other intangibles. Oak will adopt SFAS No. 142 for its fiscal year beginning July 1, 2002. Upon adoption of SFAS No. 142, the Company will no longer amortize goodwill, and assembled workforce with a net carrying value of approximately $13.3 million at June 30, 2002. There are approximately $7 million of intangible assets remaining on the balance sheet at June 30, 2002 that will continue to amortize, approximately $5 million of which will amortize in fiscal 2003. Restructuring Charge. During fiscal 2002, the Company recorded -------------------- restructuring charges of $3.2 million related to the reduction in force of approximately 70 employees due to the restructuring of the overall business as well as additional probable losses on a sublease where the tenant experienced financial difficulty and abandoned the facility with approximately five years remaining on the sublease. The Company expects that the remaining amounts payable under the terms of the sublease will be paid in cash prior to the end of fiscal 2003. All severance related amounts are expected to be paid in cash prior to December 31, 2002. During fiscal 2001, Oak recorded restructuring 26 ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - (Continued) charges of $2.6 million related to the reduction in force due to the restructuring of the overall business and the planned sublease of the resulting excess office space offset by a recovery of $0.8 million related to fiscal 2000 restructuring. This represents the reduction in force of approximately 30 employees. Non-Operating Income. Non-operating income increased 156% to $5.0 million -------------------- for fiscal 2002 compared to an expense of $8.9 million in fiscal 2001. The increase is primarily due to a charge of $17.4 million recorded in fiscal 2001 as a result of an other than temporary impairment resulting from a decline in value of an equity investment. During fiscal 2002, the Company recorded an additional charge of $1.6 million related to further other than temporary impairment losses resulting from a decline in value of this equity investment. Excluding these charges, non-operating income decreased 21% to $6.6 million for fiscal 2002 compared to $8.4 million in fiscal 2001 resulting from interest income recorded during fiscal 2002 of $5.8 million compared to $8.0 million of interest income during fiscal 2001. Despite higher average cash balances in fiscal 2002, interest income declined due to normal investment portfolio turnover and lower interest rate yield instruments available in the market in fiscal 2002. Income Taxes. The tax provision for fiscal 2002 and 2001 remained ------------ constant at approximately $2.1 million which was primarily due to foreign jurisdiction and withholding taxes. Fiscal 2001 As Compared To Fiscal 2000 -------------------------------------- Revenues. Total revenues increased 104% to $176.2 million for fiscal 2001 -------- compared to $86.5 million for fiscal year 2000. The $89.7 million absolute increase in revenues is comprised principally by the increase in Optical Storage revenues of $80.9 million from $36.0 million in fiscal 2000 to $116.9 million in fiscal 2001. This increase was directly attributable to the Company's continued success in the OTI 9790 8X CD-RW controller introduced during fiscal 2000. Units of Optical products shipped increased from 3.78 million units in fiscal 2000 to 17.5 million units in fiscal 2001. Imaging revenues increased $13.1 million or 28% for fiscal 2001 from $46.2 million in fiscal 2000 to $59.3 million in fiscal 2001. This increase is primarily a result of the inclusion of the Xionics software revenues for the entire fiscal 2001 as a result of the acquisition of Xionics which took place during January of the prior fiscal year. There were no revenues of Consumer products during fiscal 2001, compared to $4.3 million in fiscal 2000, as a result of the divestiture of the broadband business during January 2000 of the prior fiscal year. Cost of Revenues. Gross margins declined slightly to 48% in fiscal 2001 ---------------- from 53% in fiscal 2000. The decrease was primarily attributable to the increase in Optical Storage revenues which has a lower average gross margin compared to Imaging products, and to inventory allowances, in the amount of $5.6 million, taken for excess inventory in the Optical Storage segment. These allowances were recorded as a result of the reduction in demand of the Oak's products due to the worldwide PC and semiconductor slowdown beginning in the December quarter of 2000. Gross margins for the Optical Storage segment was 35% for fiscal 2001 as compared to 37% in fiscal 2000. This decrease is primarily due to allowances taken for excess inventory, partially offset by higher gross margins on new products. Gross margin for the Imaging business segment was 74% for fiscal 2001, compared to 66% for fiscal 2000 This was mostly due to the addition of the higher margin Imaging Group software as a result of the acquisition of Xionics which took place halfway through fiscal 2000 and was present for the entire fiscal 2001. Research and Development Expenses. Research and development costs are --------------------------------- expensed as incurred. Research and development expenses were $50.6 million and $49.2 million for fiscal 2001 and 2000, respectively, and expressed as a percentage of net revenues were 29% and 57%, respectively. Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and -------------------------------------------- administrative ("S,G&A") expenses increased 10% to $36.6 million in fiscal 2001 from $33.2 million in fiscal 2000 respectively. The increase was largely due to charges recorded to bad debt expense of approximately $2.7 million during fiscal 2001 as a result of an increase in the allowance for doubtful accounts. The inclusion of the Xionics operations for the entire fiscal 2001 also contributed to the increase in the expenses as the acquisition took place during January of fiscal 2000. 27 ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - (Continued) Amortization of Intangibles. Amortization of intangible assets increased --------------------------- to $14.7 million for fiscal 2001 compared to $10.5 million in fiscal 2000. The increase was a result of certain intangible assets which were amortized for the entire fiscal 2001 as they were a result of the acquisition of Xionics which took place during January of fiscal 2000. Restructuring Charge. During the third quarter of fiscal 2001, Oak -------------------- recorded restructuring charges of $2.6 million related to the reduction in force due to the restructuring of the overall business and the planned sublease of the resulting excess office space offset by a recovery of $0.8 million related to fiscal 2000 restructuring. This represented the reduction in force of approximately 30 employees. During fiscal 2000, the Company had accrued $3.3 million as restructuring charges, primarily related to the abandonment of its leased facility in Andover, Massachusetts. The Company was able to negotiate a new sublease of the previously abandoned facility. This recovery resulted in a net restructuring charge of $1.8 million to the fiscal 2001 income statement. Non-Operating Income. Non-operating income decreased 245% to an expense -------------------- of $8.9 million for fiscal 2001 compared to income of $6.2 million in fiscal 2000. The decrease was primarily due to a charge of $17.4 million recorded in fiscal 2001 as a result of an other than temporary impairment resulting from a decline in value of an equity investment. Excluding this charge, non- operating income increased 37% to $8.4 million for fiscal 2001 compared to $6.2 million in fiscal 2000 resulting from approximately $8.0 million of interest income recorded during fiscal 2001 compared to $6.6 million of interest income during fiscal 2000. Income Taxes. The tax provision for fiscal 2001 was primarily due to ------------ foreign jurisdiction and withholding taxes. No provision for income taxes was recorded for fiscal 2000 due to net operating losses. Recently Issued Accounting Standards ------------------------------------ In July 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets", which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. SFAS No. 142 requires, among other things, the discontinuance of goodwill amortization. In addition, the standard includes provisions upon adoption for the reclassification of certain existing recognized intangibles as goodwill, reassessment of the useful lives of existing recognized intangibles, reclassification of certain intangibles out of previously reported goodwill and the testing for impairment of existing goodwill and other intangibles. Oak will adopt SFAS No. 142 for its fiscal year beginning July 1, 2002. Upon adoption of SFAS No. 142, the Company will no longer amortize goodwill, and assembled workforce with a net carrying value of approximately $13.3 million at June 30, 2002. In lieu of amortization the Company will be required to periodically perform an impairment review of its goodwill balance beginning with the initial adoption. The Company does not currently expect to record any material impairment charges upon completion of the initial review nor does it expect to change the useful lives of the amortizable intangible assets. On October 3, 2001, the FASB issued SFAS 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets." SFAS 144 supersedes SFAS 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be disposed of." The primary objectives of SFAS 144 are to develop one accounting model based on the framework established in SFAS 121 for long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale, and to address significant implementation issues. The Company will adopt SFAS 144 for its fiscal year beginning July 1, 2002. At this time, management does not expect the adoption of SFAS 144 to have a material effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations. In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Exit or Disposal Activities'" ("SFAS 146"). SFAS 146 addresses significant issues regarding the recognition, measurement, and reporting of costs that are associated with exit and disposal activities, including restructuring activities that are currently accounted for under EITF No. 94-3, "Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)." The scope of SFAS 146 also includes costs related to terminating a contract that is not a capital lease and termination benefits that employees who are involuntarily terminated receive under the terms of a one-time benefit arrangement that is not an ongoing benefit arrangement or an individual deferred-compensation contract. SFAS 146 will be effective for exit or disposal activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002 and early application is encouraged. We will adopt 28 ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - (Continued) SFAS 146 for our third fiscal quarter beginning January 1, 2003 and do not expect that the adoption will have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. Liquidity and Capital Resources ------------------------------- Since its inception, Oak has financed its cash requirements from cash generated from operations, the sale of equity securities, bank lines of credit and long-term and short-term debt. Oak's principal sources of liquidity as of June 30, 2002 consisted of approximately $142.7 million in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments. Oak also has approximately $7.7 million in lines of letters of credit with Taiwanese financial institutions, all of which were available at June 30, 2002. Oak's working capital remained fairly constant at $129.2 million as of June 30, 2002 compared to $129.7 million as of June 30, 2001. Decreases in accounts receivable and inventory during fiscal 2002 and increases in accounts payable and accrued expenses were offset by an increase in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of approximately $18.6 million, primarily attributable to an income tax refund received during fiscal 2002 of approximately $14.7 million. Oak's working capital decreased by $6.9 million to $129.7 million as of June 30, 2001 from $136.6 million as of June 30, 2000. The decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in inventory of approximately $13.5 million and prepaid and other current assets of $4.8 million offset by a decrease in accounts payable of $11.9 million. Oak's short-term investments were principally invested in investment grade, interest-bearing securities. Oak's cash provided by operating activities increased to $23.6 million for fiscal 2002 compared to $20.1 million for fiscal 2001. The loss for fiscal 2002 of $27.0 million was primarily offset by decreases in accounts receivable of $8.5 million, non-cash amortization and depreciation expense of $19.7 million and an income tax refund received for approximately $14.7 million. Oak's cash provided by operating activities increased to $20.1 million for fiscal 2001 compared to an outflow of $18.6 million for fiscal 2000. Fiscal 2001 cash provided in operating activities is primarily a result of a decrease in the inventory balance of $13.5 million, decrease in prepaid expenses, other current assets and other assets of $6.3 million, depreciation and amortization expense of $22.6 million and an impairment loss on equity securities of $17.4 million recorded during fiscal 2001 offset by a net loss of $30.6 million and a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $9.6 million. Oak's investing activities during fiscal 2002 used cash of $18.0 million compared to $14.0 million during fiscal 2001. Cash used in investing activities during fiscal 2002 resulted primarily from a net outflow from purchase and sales of short-term investments of $7.2 million, purchases of property and equipment of $7.6 million and the acquisition of Accel, net of cash acquired of $3.2 million. Oak's investing activities during fiscal 2001 used cash of $14.0 million compared to proceeds of $12.6 million during fiscal 2000. Cash used in investing activities during fiscal 2001 resulted primarily from a net outflow from purchase and sales of short-term investments of $7.4 million and purchases of property and equipment of $6.6 million. Oak's cash provided by financing activities during fiscal 2002 was $7.6 million as compared to a minimal amount recorded during fiscal 2001. The proceeds in 2002 were a result of the issuance of common stock through the exercise of employee stock options and employee stock purchase plan activity during the year. Oak's financing activities during fiscal 2001 were minimal as compared to proceeds of $5.6 million recorded during fiscal 2000. Cash provided by issuance of common stock through the exercise of employee stock options and employee stock purchase plan activity of approximately $11.9 million was offset by the acquisition of treasury stock of $12.0 million during the year. 29 ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - (Continued) The following table summarizes our contractual payment obligations and commitments as of June 30, 2002: Payment Obligations by Year (in thousands)

We believe that our existing cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments and credit facilities will be sufficient to provide adequate working capital and to fund operations over the next twelve months. If, however, during the next twelve to eighteen month period we fail to increase our revenue or are unable to reduce our expenses below our revenues, then we may be in a position where we will need to seek additional financing. However, there can be no assurance that we will not be required to seek other financing sooner or that such financing, if required, will be available on terms satisfactory to us. We may also utilize cash to acquire or invest in complementary businesses or products or to obtain the right to use complementary technologies. From time to time, in the ordinary course of business, we evaluate potential acquisitions of such businesses, products or technologies. However, Oak has no present understandings, commitments or agreements with respect to any material acquisition of other businesses, products or technologies, other than those disclosed above or elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. For the fiscal years ended June 30, 2002, 2001 and 2000, the Company did not engage in any material related party transactions. Critical Accounting Policies ---------------------------- The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on the consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Note 2 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements describes the significant accounting policies essential to the consolidated financial statements. The preparation of these financial statements requires estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures. We believe the following to be critical accounting policies as they require more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. Although we believe that our judgments and estimates are appropriate and correct, actual future results may differ from our estimates. In general the critical accounting policies that may require judgments or estimates relate specifically to Distributor Revenue Recognition, the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts, Inventory Reserves for Obsolescence and Declines in Market Value, Loss on Engineering Service Contracts, Restructuring Charges for Severance or Facilities and Income Tax Accruals. 30 ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - (Continued) We recognize product revenues when an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the price is determinable and collection is reasonably assured. Approximately 6% of the Company's total revenues are sold through certain distributors that are subject to agreements allowing for limited rights of exchange of up to 5% of the total amounts sold in the previous six-month period. Accordingly, we do not recognize revenue for estimated returns from all amounts sold to these distributors until the right of exchange has expired. The Allowance for Doubtful Accounts is established for estimated losses resulting from the inability of our customers to make required payments. The assessment of specific receivable balances and required reserves is performed by management and discussed with the audit committee. We have identified specific customers where collection is probable and have established specific reserves, but to the extent collection is made, the allowance will be released. Additionally, if the financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required. Reserves are provided for excess and obsolete inventory, which are estimated based on a comparison of the quantity and cost of inventory on hand to management's forecast of customer demand. Customer demand is dependent on many factors and requires us to use significant judgment in our forecasting process. We must also make assumptions regarding the rate at which new products will be accepted in the marketplace and at which customers will transition from older products to newer products. Generally, inventories in excess of six months demand are reserved and the related charge is recorded as a cost of revenue. Once a reserve is established, it is maintained until the product to which it relates is sold or otherwise disposed of, even if in subsequent periods we forecast demand for the product. This treatment is in accordance with Accounting Research Bulletin 43 and Staff Accounting Bulletin 100 "Restructuring and Impairment Charges." We enter into engineering service agreements from time to time and use either percentage of completion or completed contract methods in recognizing the project based revenues. Estimates of remaining costs are prepared every quarter and compared to the estimated revenues to determine if any reserve for loss on contracts may be required. Estimated losses on engineering contracts are not material to our financial position at this time. Restructuring Charges for Severance and Facility Abandonment have been accrued based on specific plans for cost reduction that are established by management prior to the end of the quarter. The severance accrual is tied to a plan that is generally specific by person or position that will be eliminated. The facility abandonment reserve is established by estimating how long a facility may be vacant and under what market based terms might it be released. Estimates for each given facility generally range from $200,000 to $800,000. We have three facilities we are attempting to sublease at this time with a resulting reserve of $1.7 million as of June 30, 2002. Some portion of these reserves may prove to be too little, or in excess, which could result in an adjustment to restructuring reserves in a future quarter. In general, we expect that these reserves will be used as payments are made for rent on these abandoned facilities. At this time we do not expect any additional adjustments to be material to the Company's operating results. In general, we are in a loss position for tax purposes, and have established a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets, as we do not believe it is likely that we will generate sufficient taxable income in future periods to realize the benefit of our deferred tax assets. Predicting future taxable income is difficult, and requires the use of significant judgment. At June 30, 2002, all of our deferred tax assets were reserved. Accruals are made for specific tax exposures and are generally not material to our operating results or financial position, nor do we anticipate material changes to these reserves in the near future. 31 ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - (Continued) Factors That May Affect Future Results -------------------------------------- You should read the following factors in conjunction with the factors discussed elsewhere in this and our other filings with the SEC and in materials incorporated by reference in these filings. The following is intended to highlight certain factors that may affect the financial condition and results of operations of Oak and are not meant to be an exhaustive discussion of risks that apply to companies with broad international operations, such as Oak. Like other businesses, Oak is susceptible to macroeconomic downturns in the United States or abroad, as were experienced in fiscal year 2002, and continues into fiscal year 2003, that may affect the general economic climate and performance of Oak or its customers. Oak Has Experienced and Expects to Continue to Experience Significant --------------------------------------------------------------------- Period-To-Period Fluctuations in Its Revenues and Operating Results, Which May ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Result In Volatility In The Price Of Its Stock. Oak's quarterly revenues and ---------------------------------------------- operating results have varied significantly in the past and are likely to vary substantially from quarter to quarter in the future. Accordingly, you should not rely on period-to-period comparisons as an indication of future performance. In addition, these variations may cause our stock price to fluctuate. If quarterly results fail to meet public expectations, the price of our stock may decline. Oak's revenues and operating results are affected by a wide variety of factors, including factors that generally affect everyone in its industry and factors that are more specific to its business and product lines. The principal risk we face in our business is our dependence on the optical storage and digital imaging markets. Other factors specific to our business and product lines include the following: o Our ability to diversify our product offerings and the markets for our products; o Fluctuations in manufacturing costs; o The loss or gain of important customers; o The timing of significant orders and order cancellations or re-scheduling; o Pricing policy changes by Oak and its competitors and suppliers; o The potential for cancellation of customer orders and the resulting significant inventory exposure; o The timing of the development and introduction of new products or enhanced versions of existing products; o Market acceptance of new products; o Increased competition in product lines, and competitive pricing pressure; o Failure to anticipate changing customer product requirements; o The competitiveness of our customers; o Cyclical semiconductor industry conditions; and o The inability to obtain foundry capacity. The above factors have affected our business in the past and may affect us in the future. In addition, our quarterly operating results could be materially adversely affected by legal expenses incurred in connection with, or any judgment or settlement in, our current or future legal proceedings. See "Oak is a Defendant in Several Lawsuits." We operate in the highly cyclical semiconductor industry, which is subject -------------------------------------------------------------------------- to significant downturns. We have diversified our business so that our ------------------------ product offerings include not only integrated circuits, but also embedded software and platform solutions. However, a significant portion of our revenue will continue to come from our semiconductor product offerings. The semiconductor industry historically has been characterized by rapid technological change and product obsolescence, cyclical market patterns and seasonal customer demand, significant price erosion, periods of over-capacity and under-capacity, periods of production shortages, variations in 32 ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - (Continued) manufacturing costs, including raw materials, and yields, and significant expenditures for capital equipment and product development. The industry is currently experiencing a significant economic downturn, as it previously has at various times. These downturns, including the current recession impacting the semiconductor industry, often occur in connection with, or in anticipation of, maturing product cycles (of both the semiconductor companies and their customers) and declines in general economic conditions, such as those experienced in the second half of fiscal 2001 and which continues today. Downturns in the semiconductor industry, including the current downturn, have been characterized by and resulted in diminished product demand, production over-capacity, high inventory levels and accelerated erosion of product prices. Even if customers' aggregate demand were not to decline, the availability of additional capacity can adversely impact pricing levels, which can also depress revenue levels. Should the current recession impacting the semiconductor industry continue for a significant period of time, our business, financial condition and results of operations will continue to suffer. Oak Has a Recent History of Operating Losses and May Not Become or Remain ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Profitable. Oak has sustained significant losses in recent years and may not ---------- become profitable in the future. While Oak had net income of $5.9 million in fiscal 1998, its current loss trend began in calendar year 1998, resulting in an operating loss of $9.1 million for fiscal 1998, an operating loss of $61.9 million for fiscal 1999, an operating loss of $61.1 million for fiscal 2000, an operating loss of $19.6 million for fiscal 2001 and an operating loss of $29.9 million for fiscal 2002 (in each case before adjustments for non-operating income or loss, or income tax expense or benefit). Oak's operating losses generally have been due to its dependence on its Optical Storage business, which historically has accounted for approximately 67% of its business. Given certain evolving dynamics in the optical storage market, including the rate of adoption of optical technology, (including CD-RW controllers) competition and selling prices, we cannot accurately predict the impact of our CD-RW controller product on operating results nor whether revenue from Optical Storage products will enable Oak to return to profitability. We expect that the average selling prices, or ASP's, for our Optical Storage products and certain of our imaging hardware products, will continue to decline over time and that ASPs for each new Optical Storage product and imaging hardware product, will decline significantly over the life of the product. In addition, given the extremely competitive nature of the optical storage market, we believe that gross margins for new products in our optical storage market will be lower than historical levels. However, price declines in hardware products may be offset by cost reductions, higher volumes of hardware products and higher volumes of higher margin Imaging products being sold in the future. If Oak incurs additional losses or fails to achieve profitability in the future, this will significantly harm our business and may affect the trading price of our common stock. Oak's Financial Performance Is Highly Dependent On The Timely And ----------------------------------------------------------------- Successful Introduction Of New Products. Our financial performance depends in --------------------------------------- large part on our ability to successfully develop and market next generation and new products in a rapidly changing technological environment. If we fail to successfully identify new product opportunities and timely develop and introduce new products that achieve market acceptance, we may lose our market share and our future revenue and earnings may suffer. In the optical storage market, our performance is highly dependent upon the successful development and timely introduction of our next generation CD-RW controller, Combo (combination DVD and CD-RW) and DVD RW controller products. A variety of standards and formats are being proposed in this market, making it difficult to develop products to market requirements, and making it even more difficult for the market to develop. In the digital office market, our performance depends on our ability to successfully develop embedded imaging processing SOC solutions for the digital office market, in particular, embedded digital color copier technology and image processing chips for multifunction peripherals. Among other technological changes, embedded PDF and color capability are rapidly emerging as market requirements for printers and other imaging devices. Some of our competitors have the capacity to supply these solutions, and some of their solutions are well-received in the marketplace. We face the challenges of developing products that will require greater color and image complexity capability including web-based documents, and to work with higher performing devices in networked environments. If we are unable to meet these challenges with the development of products that can effectively compete in the OEM software and solutions market, our future results of operations could differ materially from current expectations. 33 ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - (Continued) In the past, product delays in the Optical Storage Group have resulted primarily from difficulties in allocating engineering personnel among competing projects, engineering resource limitations, and unanticipated engineering complexity. Product delays in the Imaging Group, including our recently acquired business, have resulted from these same factors, as well as changing OEM customer product specifications, difficulties with independent contractors, and changing markets or competitive requirements. These or other factors may also contribute to future delays. The design complexity of our products, especially with the increased levels of integration that are required, have previously contributed to delays in completing development and introduction of new products in both of our markets. If we fail in our new product development efforts or our products fail to achieve market acceptance, our revenues will decline and our business, financial condition and results of operations will suffer. Oak's Future Revenues Are Highly Dependent On Sales of Its CD-RW ---------------------------------------------------------------- Controller Product. Our future revenue will largely depend on the success of ------------------ our recently introduced and next generation CD-RW product as well as our Combo (combination DVD and CD-RW) and DVD RW products. We cannot predict whether these products or their successors will be competitive in the marketplace or carried into production by targeted customers. The current trend toward integrating increased speed and functionality on the CD-RW, Combo or DVD RW controller products potentially adds to the development and manufacturing costs of producing the product. Our revenues and gross margins from our optical storage controller products will depend on our ability to introduce integrated Optical Storage products for the markets in a commercially competitive manner. Even if our Optical Storage products prove to be competitive and are accepted by targeted customers, our customers and their products may not be successful. If our Optical Storage products fail to achieve market acceptance, we will need other sources of revenue to offset the loss. In fiscal 2002 Optical Storage Revenues decreased by 16%. A decrease in the overall level of sales of, and prices for, Oak's older generation Optical Storage Products due to introductions of newer products by competitors, product obsolescence and delays in Oak's next generation CD-RW product, could also adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operation. Oak's Future Imaging Revenues Will Depend on Future Royalties from ------------------------------------------------------------------ Shipment of OEM Devices. We anticipate that the royalty streams derived from ----------------------- OEMs' shipments of office equipment containing Oak products, and the sale of related products and services to manufacturers of office equipment will account for a significant portion of our Imaging Group revenue for the foreseeable future. In order to assure that Oak will derive future royalty streams from the shipment of OEM devices, Oak and its OEMs are required to develop and release in a regular and timely manner new office products with increased speed, enhanced output resolutions, reduced memory requirements, multiple functions, and network connectivity. OEMs are under tremendous pressure to continually shorten the development cycles of these products, leading to increased complexity and development costs to Oak and its OEMs. Our success will depend on, among other things, the rate at which OEMs serving the digital office market outsource their technology needs, market acceptance of our technology and products and the office devices of our OEMs; the ability of Oak and its OEMs to meet industry changes and market demands in a timely manner; achievement of new design wins by Oak; successful implementation of Oak's technology and products in new office devices being developed by its OEMs; and successful marketing of those devices by the OEMs. Oak's Markets Are Intensely Competitive and Experience Rapid Technological -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Change. We face intense competition in the markets in which we compete. We ------ expect that the level of competition will increase in the future from existing competitors and from other companies that may enter our existing or future markets with solutions that may be less costly or provide higher performance or additional features. Our principal competitors in the optical storage market include MediaTek, Sanyo and Ricoh; with new competitors emerging in Via Technologies, Inc. and Ali Corporation. Our principal competitors in the digital office market include Adobe Systems, Inc., Peerless Systems Corporation, Electronics for Imaging, Inc., Oasis Semiconductor, Analog Devices, Agilent, TAK ASIC, and in-house, captive suppliers. We also expect increased competition from the merchant market in the future. Many of these existing competitors as well as those customers expected to compete in the future have substantially greater financial, manufacturing, technical, marketing, distribution and other resources, broader product lines and longer standing relationships with customers than we do. In addition, much of our success is dependent on the success of our OEM customers. Our OEM customers in both the optical storage and digital imaging markets compete fiercely with one another for market share in a market characterized by rapid development cycles, short product life cycles and ever-increasing consumer demand for greater performance and functionality at reduced prices. 34 ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - (Continued) We anticipate that we will have to continue to lower the prices of many of our products to stay competitive. The markets for most of the applications for our products, especially in the optical storage market, are characterized by intense price competition. As the markets for these products mature and competition increases, as has been the trend for the optical storage market, we anticipate that average sales prices on products will decline. If we are unable to reduce costs sufficiently to offset declines in average sales prices or are unable to successfully introduce new higher performance products with higher average sales prices, our operating results will suffer greatly. The future growth of the digital office market is highly dependent on OEMs' continuing to outsource an increasing portion of their product development work. While the trend toward outsourcing on the part of our OEM customers has accelerated in recent years, any reversal of this trend, or a change in the way they outsource, could seriously harm our business. Similarly, significant market trends leading to changes in the way our competitors do business may enable them to compete more effectively against Oak than they have in the past. Additionally, changes in strategy by our competitors, for example price reductions, new product introductions or new marketing/distribution methods, could make it more difficult for us to compete effectively, cause reduced market demand for our products or render our products obsolete. Oak and its OEM customers may be unable to compete successfully against current or future competitors. Competitive pressures faced by Oak and its customers may result in reduced revenues and profit margins and otherwise seriously harm our business, financial condition and results of operations. Oak May Be Unable To Protect Its Intellectual Property and Proprietary ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Rights, Which May Affect Its Ability to Compete. We consider our technology ----------------------------------------------- to be proprietary and rely on a combination of patents, trademarks, copyrights, trade secret laws, confidentiality procedures and licensing arrangements to protect our intellectual property rights. However, these measures afford only limited protection. The steps that we take to protect our proprietary information may not be adequate to prevent misappropriation of our technology. For example, our competitors may be able to effectively design around our patents, or our patents may be challenged, invalidated or circumvented. Our competitors may also independently develop technologies that are substantially equivalent or superior to our technology. In addition, the rights granted under those patents may not necessarily provide competitive advantages. Moreover, while Oak holds or has applied for patents relating to the design of its products, some of its products are based in part on standards, for which it does not hold patents or other intellectual property rights. The laws of certain foreign countries in which our products are or may be manufactured or sold, including various countries in Asia, may not protect our products or intellectual property rights to the same extent as do the laws of the United States and thus make the possibility of piracy of our technology and products more likely. While we intend to seek additional international and United States patents on our technology, it is possible that no additional patents may be issued from any of our applications that are pending or in the process of being prepared. Additional patents may not be issued in all countries where our products can be sold. Any claims allowed from pending applications or applications in preparation may not be of sufficient scope or strength to provide meaningful protection or any commercial advantage to us. Oak also generally enters into confidentiality agreements with its employees and consultants and confidentiality and license agreements with its customers and potential customers. We generally limit access to and distribution of the source and object code of our software and other proprietary information. With respect to our page description language software and drivers for the digital office market and in limited circumstances with respect to firmware and drivers for our Optical Storage products, we grant licenses that give our customers access to and restricted use of the source code of our software. This increases the likelihood of misappropriation or misuse of our technology. Accordingly, despite our precautions, it may be possible for unauthorized third parties to copy certain portions of our technology or to obtain and use information that we regard as proprietary. The steps we take may not be adequate to prevent misappropriation of our technology or to provide an adequate remedy in the event of a breach or misappropriation by others. Furthermore, we may initiate claims or litigation against third parties for infringement of our proprietary rights or to establish the validity of our proprietary rights and in the past has incurred significant legal expenses in connection with claims of this type we have initiated. Additionally, we may be required to defend and indemnify against third party infringement claims pursuant to terms of existing agreements with our customers. In January 2001, Samsung was notified by Pitney Bowes that its use of our iRET technology infringed Pitney Bowes U.S. Patent No. 4,386,272. Oak is defending Samsung against this allegation of infringement pursuant to its indemnification obligation under an earlier license agreement between Samsung and XLI, a subsidiary of Oak. Any litigation by or against Oak could result in significant expense to Oak and divert the efforts of its technical and management personnel, whether or not that litigation results in a favorable determination for us. In the event of an adverse result in any litigation, we could be required to pay substantial damages, cease the manufacture, use and sale of infringing products, expend significant resources to develop non-infringing technology, discontinue the use of certain processes or obtain licenses to the infringing technology. We may not be able to develop new technology or license the infringing technology on reasonable terms, or at all. Any development or license of the technology could require us to expend substantial time and other resources. Oak May Be Unable To Obtain Third Party Intellectual Property Rights or ----------------------------------------------------------------------- May Be Liable For Significant Damages. Certain technology used in Oak's ------------------------------------- products is licensed from third parties, and in connection with these licenses, 35 ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - (Continued) Oak is required to fulfill confidentiality obligations and, in some cases, pay royalties. Some of our products require various types of copy protection software that we must license from third parties. Should we lose our rights to, or be unable to obtain the necessary copy protection software, we would be unable to sell and market these products. Oak's agreements with third parties often have no specified term and may be terminated by either party in the event of breach by the other. Our business could be adversely affected by the loss for any reason of these third-party agreements. Given the trend to include increasing levels of functionality on a chip, in the future it may be necessary or desirable for Oak to seek additional licenses to intellectual property rights held by third parties or purchase products manufactured or sold by third parties with respect to some or all of its product offerings. However, those licenses or purchases may not be available on terms acceptable to Oak, if at all. If we are unable to enter into those license arrangements on acceptable terms or to maintain our current licenses on acceptable terms, our business, financial condition and results of operations could suffer. In addition, the semiconductor industry is characterized by vigorous protection and pursuit of intellectual property rights, which has resulted in significant, often protracted and expensive litigation. Oak or its foundries may, from time to time, be notified of claims that we may be infringing patents or other intellectual property rights owned by third parties. If necessary or desirable, we may seek licenses under those patents or other intellectual property rights. However, these licenses may not be offered or the terms of any offered licenses might not be acceptable to us. If we fail to obtain a license from a third party for technology used by Oak, we may incur substantial liabilities and suspend the manufacture of products or the use by our foundries of processes requiring the technology. Oak has historically indemnified its customers for certain costs and damages of patent infringement in circumstances where an Oak product is the factor creating the customer's infringement exposure. This practice generally excludes coverage in circumstances where infringement arises out of the combination of Oak products with products of others or where infringement arises based on modifications made by the customer to Oak's products. In January 2001, Samsung was notified by Pitney Bowes that its use of Oak's iRET technology infringed Pitney Bowes U.S. Patent No. 4,386,272. Oak is defending Samsung against this allegation of infringement pursuant to its indemnification obligation under an earlier license agreement between Samsung and XLI, a subsidiary of Oak. This indemnification practice, however, could have a material adverse effect on the results of operations. Although patent disputes in the semiconductor industry have often been settled through cross-licensing arrangements, we may not be able in any or every instance, to settle an alleged patent infringement claim through a cross- licensing arrangement. We have a more limited patent portfolio than many of our competitors. If a successful claim is made against Oak or its customers and a license is not made available to us on commercially reasonable terms or we are required to pay substantial damages or awards, our business, financial condition and results of operations would be materially adversely affected. Oak Depends on Third Party Foundries And Vendors to Manufacture Products. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Oak contracts with independent foundries to manufacture a majority of its products and with independent vendors to assemble and test these products. If we fail to adequately manage our relationships with these foundries and vendors, our ability to 36 ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - (Continued) manufacture and sell our products and our results of operations would be negatively impacted. We rely on our foundries to allocate to us a portion of their foundry capacity sufficient to meet our needs to produce products of acceptable quality and with acceptable manufacturing yield and to deliver products to us in a timely manner. These foundries fabricate products for other companies and some manufacture products of their own design. If these foundries fail or are unable to satisfy our product, quality and other requirements, our business, financial condition and results of operation could suffer. We also rely on third-party subcontractors to assemble and test our products. If these subcontractors fail to meet our production requirements, our business, financial condition and operating results would suffer. Our reliance on independent manufacturers and third party assembly and testing vendors involve a number of additional risks, including: o The loss of any foundry as a supplier; o Inability to expand foundry capacity in a period of increased demand for our products; o Inability to obtain timely and adequate deliveries from current or future suppliers; o Delays in shipments of our products resulting in delay; o Disruption of operations at any of our manufacturing facilities; o Product defects and the difficulty of detecting and remedying product defects resulting in a delay of shipment to customers or customer rejection; o The unavailability of, or interruption in access to, certain process technologies; and o Reduced control over delivery schedules, quality assurance and costs. Oak generally does not use multiple sources of suppliers for its products. As a result, the likelihood of and the consequences from the occurrence of these factors are magnified. In fiscal year 2002, Oak did not experience any material delays of its wafer deliveries from its primary manufacturer. While we believe we have sufficient capacity to meet our needs through calendar 2002, we have no firm commitments in place. We may not be able to secure capacity for our manufacturing needs or may experience delays in the future. Oak's Failure to Accurately Forecast Demand for Its Products Could ------------------------------------------------------------------ Negatively Impact Its Results of Operations. Under its foundry agreements, Oak ------------------------------------------- is required to place non-cancelable orders and purchase its products on an approximately three-month rolling basis. Our customers, on the other hand, generally place purchase orders with us less than four weeks prior to delivery that may be rescheduled or under certain circumstances may be cancelled, without significant penalty. This limits our ability to react to fluctuations in demand for our products. If we overestimate the product necessary to fill orders, or fail to foresee a technology change that could render a product obsolete, we will build excess inventories, which could harm our gross margins and operating results. If we underestimate the product necessary to fill orders, we may not be able to obtain an adequate supply of products which could harm our revenues. We have experienced inventory write-offs of our Optical Storage products in the past, such as the inventory write off taken in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2002, primarily due to unforeseen and rapid changes in our customers' demand, in particular speed changes, and consequently experienced rapid product obsolescence. Product supply and demand fluctuations common to the semiconductor industry are historically characterized by periods of manufacturing capacity shortages immediately followed by periods of overcapacity, which are caused by the addition of manufacturing capacity in large increments. The industry has moved from a period of capacity shortages in the first half of calendar year 2000, to the current condition of excess capacity. We cannot predict whether Oak can or will achieve timely, cost-effective access to that capacity when needed, or if there will be a capacity shortage again in the future. Oak Derives A Large Portion of Its Revenues from International Sales, -------------------------------------------------------------------- Depends on Foreign Subcontractors and is Subject to the Risks of Doing Business ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- in Foreign Countries. A large portion of our revenues -------------------- 37 ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - (Continued) are derived from international sales. International sales, principally to Korea, Japan, and Europe, accounted for approximately 89%, 84% and 75% of our net revenues for fiscal 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Oak also depends on foreign subcontractors for the manufacture of its products. Most of our foreign sales and purchases are negotiated in US dollars, although invoicing is occasionally done in local currency. As a result, we may be subject to the risks of currency fluctuations in the foreign countries in which we do business. Oak also is subject to other risks of conducting business outside of the United States. These risks include: o Unexpected changes in, or impositions of, foreign legislative or regulatory requirements; o Delays resulting from difficulty in obtaining export licenses for certain technology; o Tariffs, quotas and other trade barriers and restrictions; o Longer payment cycles; o Greater difficulty in collecting accounts receivable; o Potentially adverse taxes and adverse tax consequences; o The burdens of complying with a variety of foreign laws; o Political, social and economic instability; o Potential hostilities; o Changes in government, diplomatic or trade relationships; and o Fluctuations in foreign currencies As an example, Oak's significant investment in foundry capacity in Taiwan exposes it to the risk of political instability in Taiwan, including the potential for conflict between Taiwan and the People's Republic of China. We have several significant OEM customers in Japan, South Korea, and other parts of Asia. Adverse economic circumstances in Japan and elsewhere in Asia could affect these customers' willingness or ability to do business with Oak in the future or their success in developing and launching devices containing our products. Oak Depends on a Limited Number of Customers for a Substantial Portion of ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Its Revenues, and a Loss Of, or a Significant Reduction in Purchases By, ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Current Major Customers which is not offset by a gain or, or a significant -------------------------------------------------------------------------- increase in purchases by, new or current customers, Would Significantly Reduce ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Oak's Revenues. A limited number of customers historically have accounted for a -------------- substantial portion of Oak's net revenues. In fiscal 2002, 2001 and 2000, sales to our top ten customers accounted for approximately 69%, 82% and 78%, respectively, of our net revenues. In fiscal 2002, LG Electronics accounted for 20% of total net revenues while Mitsumi and Ionics accounted for 11% of total net revenues individually. In fiscal 2001, LG Electronics accounted for 31% of total net revenues. In fiscal 2000, LG Electronics accounted for 26% of total net revenues and Hewlett-Packard Company accounted for 16%. We expect that sales to a limited number of customers will continue to account for a substantial portion of our net revenues for the foreseeable future. We do not have long-term purchase agreements with any of our customers. Customers generally purchase our products subject to cancelable short-term purchase orders. We cannot predict whether our current customers will continue to place orders, whether existing orders will be canceled, or whether customers who have ordered products will pay invoices for delivered products. Our policy in Taiwan is to secure a letter of credit prior to product shipment to minimize the risk of non-payment. We have experienced significant changes from year to year in the composition of our major customer base and believe this pattern will continue. Our revenues from the Optical Storage Group will also depend on whether our OEM customers are successful in selling their optical drives both in aftermarket and to PC OEM customers. In part, to address this risk, we are continuing our efforts to increase penetration in existing large customers as well as engage new large OEM customers. The current weakness in demand being experienced in semiconductor and PC markets, coupled with the overall poor macroeconomic environment, however, makes it difficult to forecast future financial performance. In addition, some of our customers have chosen, and may continue to choose, to award their design wins and business on a project-by-project basis to different vendors. The current economic recession notwithstanding, the loss of, or a significant reduction in, purchases or commitments by current major customers which is not offset by corresponding increases from other current or future customers would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. If sales to current customers cease or are reduced, we may be unable to obtain the orders from new customers necessary to offset any such losses or reductions. Moreover, we may not be able to qualify our independent foundries for potential new customers or do so in a timely manner. Oak Is A Defendant In Several Lawsuits. Oak and various of its directors -------------------------------------- and former officers are parties to a consolidated class action lawsuit filed on behalf of all persons who purchased or acquired Oak common stock for the period from July 27, 1995 to May 22, 1996, alleging state securities law and other violations. Additionally, various of Oak's directors and former officers are defendants in three consolidated derivative actions which allege a breach of fiduciary duty and a claim under California securities laws. Based on its current information, Oak believes the class action and derivative suits to be without merit and will defend its position vigorously. Although it is reasonably possible we may incur losses upon resolution of these claims, an estimate of loss or range of loss cannot be made. No provision for any liability that may result upon adjudication has been made in Oak's financial statements. Oak is also a party to various other legal proceedings, including a number of patent-related matters. In connection with these lawsuits, however, management time has been, and will continue to be, expended and Oak has incurred, and expects to continue to incur, substantial legal and other expenses. 38 ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - (Continued) Oak may need to continue to Invest cash flow in Operations as well as --------------------------------------------------------------------- Capital purchases for Tools and Equipment, and The Inability to Raise the ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Additional Capital Necessary to Fund These Investments On Acceptable Terms -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Could Seriously Harm Our Business. In order to remain competitive, Oak must --------------------------------- continue to make investments Research and Development, development tools in new facilities and capital equipment. Significant amounts of capital additions could be required in subsequent years. Additionally, in order to obtain an adequate supply of wafers, especially wafers manufactured using advanced process techniques, we have entered into and will continue to consider various possible transactions, including various "take or pay" contracts that commit Oak to purchase specified quantities of wafers over extended periods. Manufacturing arrangements such as these may require substantial capital investment, which may require us to seek additional financing. We believe that existing liquid resources and funds generated from operations, if any, combined with the ability to borrow funds will be adequate to meet our operating and capital requirements and obligations into the foreseeable future. We may, from time to time, seek additional equity or debt financing. However, those funds, when needed, might not be available on terms that we find acceptable. Any future equity financing will also lead to dilution to existing shareholders. Oak May Make Future Acquisitions Or Enter Into Joint Ventures That May Not -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Be Successful. In the future, Oak may investigate and may thereafter acquire ------------- additional businesses, products and technologies, or enter into joint venture arrangements, that could complement or expand its business. Acquisitions involve numerous risks and costs including: o Difficulties in integration of the operations, technologies, and products of the acquired companies; o Diverting management's attention from normal daily operations of the business; o Entering markets in which there is limited direct prior experience and where competitors have stronger market positions; o Coordination of sales, marketing and research and development; o Potential loss of key employees; and o The maintenance of corporate culture, controls, procedures and policies. In addition, investments in emerging technology present risks of loss of value of one or more of the investments due to failure of the technology to gain the predicted market acceptance. Also, any future acquisitions could require Oak to issue dilutive equity securities, incur debt or contingent liabilities or write-off in-process research and development and other acquisition-related expenses. Further, we may not be able to integrate acquired 39 ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - (Continued) businesses, products or technologies with our existing operations. If we are unable to fully integrate an acquired business, product or technology, we may not receive the intended benefits of that acquisition. Oak Will Depend On Key Personnel To Manage Its Business, and the Loss of ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Any Key Personnel Could Seriously Harm Its Business. Our future performance --------------------------------------------------- depends, to a significant degree, on the retention and contribution of members of Oak's senior management as well as other key personnel including highly skilled engineering and technical employees. In particular, it is important for Oak to retain the services of Young K. Sohn, our current chairman and chief executive officer, and for the Company to hire a new General Manager for its Optical Storage Group that has the requisite technical and business expertise to effectively manage the operations of the Optical Storage Group. We continue to recruit financial, technical and operational personnel. Competition for these people is intense, and we may not be able to attract and retain qualified replacements or additional technical or operational personnel. We may not be successful in finding suitable replacements for any senior management personnel who may leave Oak. Provisions in Oak's Charter Documents And Rights Plan Could Make It More ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Difficult To Acquire Oak And May Reduce The Market Price Of Oak Stock. Our --------------------------------------------------------------------- board of directors has the authority to issue up to 2.0 million shares of preferred stock and to determine the price, rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions, including voting rights, of those shares without any further vote or action by the stockholders. The rights of the holders of common stock, may be subject to, and may be adversely affected by, the rights of the holders of any preferred stock that may be issued in the future. The issuance of preferred stock may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change of control of Oak without further action by the stockholders and may adversely affect the voting and other rights of the holders of common stock. We have no present plans to issue shares of preferred stock. Further, certain provisions of our charter documents, including provisions eliminating the ability of stockholders to take action by written consent and limiting the ability of stockholders to raise matters at a meeting of stockholders without giving advance notice, may have the effect of delaying or preventing changes in control or management of Oak, which could have an adverse effect on the market price of the stock. In addition, our charter documents do not permit cumulative voting and provide that our board of directors will be divided into three classes, each of which serves for a staggered three-year term, which may also make it more difficult for a third-party to gain control of the board of directors. In addition, 400,000 shares of our preferred stock are designated as series A junior participating preferred stock under a rights plan, commonly referred to as a "poison pill". Under certain circumstances involving a proposed change-in-control of Oak, the rights related to the series A junior participating preferred stock may be triggered, the effect of which may delay or prevent a third party from gaining control of or acquiring us. 40 ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK Most of Oak's foreign sales are negotiated in US dollars; however, invoicing is occasionally done in local currency. As a result, Oak may be subject to the risks of currency fluctuations. Assets and liabilities which are denominated in non-functional currencies are re-measured into the functional currency on a monthly basis and the resulting gain or loss is recorded within non-operating income in the statement of operations. Many of Oak's non-functional currency receivables and payables are hedged through managing net asset positions, product pricing and other means. Our strategy is to minimize its non-functional currency net assets or net liabilities in our foreign subsidiaries. Our policy is not to speculate in financial instruments for profit on the exchange rate price fluctuations, trade in currencies for which there are not underlying exposures, or enter into trades for any currency to intentionally increase the underlying exposure. As of June 30, 2002, Oak had foreign currency forward exchange contracts to exchange Yen for approximately $2.2 million. Oak uses financial instruments, including local currency debt arrangements, to offset the gains or losses of the financial instruments against gains or losses on the underlying operations cash flows or investments. If foreign currency rates fluctuate by 10% from rates at June 30, 2002 and 2001, the effect on our consolidated financial statements would not be material. However, there could be a material effect on our financial statements in the future. Oak's cash equivalents and short-term investments ("debt and equity investments") are exposed to financial market risk due to fluctuation in interest rates, which may affect its interest income and the fair values of its investments. Oak manages the exposure to financial market risk by performing ongoing evaluation of its investment portfolio and investing in short-term investment grade corporate securities and U.S. government and other agencies' obligations, which mature within the next 24 months. In addition, Oak does not use investments for trading or other speculative purposes. Not withstanding the foregoing, due to the divestiture of the Broadband business in January 2000, we are in the unusual position of also holding an investment in 293,794 shares of Conexant Systems Inc. common stock which had an original book value of $68.05 per share. During fiscal 2001, Oak reduced the basis of this investment to a book value of $8.95 per share as a result of a permanent impairment in the market value of the common stock. This resulted in a charge to non-operating expenses of $17.4 million during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2001. On June 25, 2002, a stock dividend was declared to Conexant shareholders in connection with the merger between Alpha Industries, Inc. and the wireless communications business of Conexant to create and form Skyworks Solutions, Inc. For each Conexant share, the Company received 0.351 shares of Skyworks Solutions Inc., or a total of 103,121 shares, and will continue to hold their existing Conexant shares. For fiscal 2002, the Company reduced the combined basis in these two investments to a book value of $1.62 per share for Conexant shares and $5.55 per share for Skyworks shares due to a further decline in the market value of the common stock which the Company believes to be other than temporary. This resulted in an additional charge to non-operating expenses of $1.6 million during fiscal 2002. Due to the short maturities of its investments, the carrying values generally approximate the fair value. If market interest rates were to increase immediately and uniformly by 10% from levels as of June 30, 2002 and 2001, the decline in the fair value of the portfolio would not be material. Further, Oak has the ability to hold its fixed income investments until maturity and, therefore, we would not expect to recognize such an adverse impact in income or cash flows. ITEM 8.

See accompanying notes to consolidated financial statements. 54 OAK TECHNOLOGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (1) THE COMPANY Oak Technology, Inc. and subsidiaries ("Oak" or the "Company") designs, develops and markets high performance integrated semiconductors, software and platform solutions to original equipment manufacturers ("OEMs") worldwide that serve the optical storage, and digital imaging equipment markets. The Company's products consist primarily of integrated circuits and supporting software and firmware, all designed to store and distribute digital content, thereby enabling its OEM customers to deliver cost-effective, powerful systems to the end user for the home and enterprise. The Company contracts with independent foundries to manufacture all of its products, enabling the Company to focus on its design strengths, minimize fixed costs and capital expenditures and gain access to advanced manufacturing facilities. The Company's mission is to be a leading solution provider for the storage and distribution of digital content. The Company's operations are organized along its two market-focused groups: the Optical Storage Group and the Imaging Group. The Imaging Group comprises the combination of the Company's earlier acquisition of Xionics Document Technologies, Inc. and its Pixel Magic subsidiary, serving the digital imaging equipment market. The Company was originally incorporated in California in 1987 and was reincorporated in Delaware in 1994. The Company has facilities in: Woburn, Massachusetts; San Diego, California; Austin, Texas; Tucson, Arizona; Taipei, Taiwan; Yokohama City, Kanagawa and Osaka Japan; Seoul, Korea; Manchester, England; and Dortmund, Germany. (2) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Presentation and Preparation ------------------------------------- The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation. Use of Estimates ---------------- The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of 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. Cash Equivalents and Investments -------------------------------- The Company's policy is to invest cash in excess of operating requirements in interest-bearing investments. Securities purchased with remaining maturities of three months or less at the date of acquisition are considered to be cash equivalents. Securities purchased with remaining maturities greater than three months at the date of acquisition are included in short-term investments. The Company accounts for its investments in debt and equity securities with readily determined fair values as "held-to-maturity," "available-for-sale" or "trading" and establishes accounting and reporting requirements for each classification. The Company has classified all securities held at June 30, 2002 and 55 OAK TECHNOLOGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued) June 30, 2001 as available-for-sale securities. Such securities are reported at fair value with unrealized gains or losses, if material, included in other comprehensive income and reported as a separate component of stockholders' equity. Realized gains and losses are reported as a component of other non- operating income or loss. Fair Value of Financial Instruments ----------------------------------- The carrying value of the Company's financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and foreign currency forward exchange contracts approximates fair value. Cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable approximate fair value due to their short-term nature. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities --------------------------------------------- The Company periodically enters into economic hedges by purchasing foreign exchange contracts as a hedge against foreign currency denominated accounts receivables or fixed sales commitments. The Company does not enter into foreign exchange contracts for speculative or trading purposes. As of June 30, 2002, the Company had short-term foreign currency exchange contracts with face values of approximately $2.2 million to purchase U.S. Dollars with Japanese Yen for accounts receivables and sales commitments denominated in Japanese Yen. The impact of recording the fair values of the forward contracts and unrealized gains or losses in the accounts receivable was not material for the periods presented. Concentrations of Credit Risk ----------------------------- Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk are primarily cash and cash equivalents, short- term investments and accounts receivable. The Company's cash equivalents and short-term investments are primarily in money market accounts, certificates of deposit, corporate notes and US government obligations. The Company's short- term investments have maturities ranging from 2002 through 2004. Also included in cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2002 and 2001, are approximately $8,030,000 and $7,213,000, respectively, in accounts with foreign banks and financial institutions primarily in Taiwan and Japan. The Company periodically discounts notes receivable with recourse due from some customers with banks in Japan. As of June 30, 2002 and 2001, the Company had no discounted notes receivable outstanding. Generally, the Company requires no collateral on trade receivables, although a substantial portion of export sales are guaranteed by letters of credit. The Company believes that credit risks are substantially mitigated by its credit evaluation process and its maintenance of reserves for estimated credit losses. Inventories ----------- Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first in, first out) or market. The Company periodically reviews its inventories for potential slow- moving or obsolete items and writes down specific items to net realizable value as appropriate. 56 OAK TECHNOLOGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued) Depreciation and Amortization ----------------------------- Property and equipment is stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method. Useful lives of three to five years are used for computer equipment, purchased software and furniture and fixtures; useful lives of up to five years are used for leasehold improvements and a useful life of 60 years is used for a building. Amortization of Intangible Assets --------------------------------- Goodwill, purchased technology and other intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over periods of 3 to 5 years. In accordance with SFAS No. 142, beginning July 1, 2002, the Company will no longer amortize goodwill and assembled workforce and will periodically assess these assets for impairment. Equity Investments ------------------ Where the Company has investments in which it has the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies, these investments are accounted for using the equity method. Accordingly, the Company's share of the income/(loss) in these investments is included in other operating income. Long-Lived Assets ----------------- The Company reviews its long-lived assets, including its intangible assets, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to the future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by such asset. If the carrying amount is in excess of the future undiscounted net cash flows of such assets, an impairment is recognized and is measured by the amount by which the carrying value of the asset exceeds its fair value. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of their carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. In assessing the recoverability of the Company's goodwill and other intangible assets, the Company must make assumptions regarding estimated future cash flows and other factors to determine the fair value of the respective assets. If these estimates or their related assumptions change in the future, the Company may be required to record impairment charges for these assets not previously recorded. The Company will adopt SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" for its fiscal year beginning July 1, 2002 and will be required to analyze its goodwill for impairment issues within the first six months of fiscal 2003 and then on a periodic basis thereafter. At this time, management does not expect the adoption of SFAS 142 to have a material effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations. Revenue Recognition ------------------- The Company recognizes product revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the price is fixed or determinable and collection is reasonably assured. Under these criteria, product revenue is generally recognized upon shipment of product to customers, net of accruals for estimated sales returns and allowances. Software and other revenues include software license fees, services, software maintenance and royalty revenues. Software and other revenues originate primarily from the business operations which were acquired from Xionics on January 11, 2000. 57 OAK TECHNOLOGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued) Revenue from transactions involving the Company's software products is accounted for in accordance with Statement of Position ("SOP") 97-2 "Software Revenue Recognition" and SOP 98-9, "Software Revenue Recognition with Respect to Certain Arrangements". SOP 97-2 generally requires revenue earned on software arrangements involving multiple elements to be allocated to each element based on relative fair values of the elements. The determination of the fair value is based on evidence that is specific to the vendor. When the Company does not have evidence of the fair value for one or more of the delivered elements in a multiple-element arrangement, the residual method is applied to recognize revenue. Under the residual method, the total fair value of the undelivered elements is deferred and subsequently recognized in accordance with SOP 97-2. When the Company does not have evidence of the fair value for all elements in a multiple-element arrangement, all revenue from the arrangement is deferred until such evidence exists or until all elements are delivered. Revenue from software is recognized upon shipment of software and related documentation, based upon fixed price purchase orders from customers provided there are no obligations remaining and collectibility of the receivable is reasonably assured. Revenue from software maintenance contracts is deferred and recognized ratably as it is earned over the term of the contract, generally one year. Unearned software maintenance revenue is included in deferred revenue. In addition, deferred revenue includes certain prepaid royalties and advance billings under software development contracts for services not yet performed. Service revenue is recognized as the service is performed. Royalty revenue is the amount that is contractually due and collectible. The Company recognizes revenue under agreements for non-recurring engineering services based upon time and materials or by using the percentage of completion method of accounting based on the ratio of actual labor hours incurred to total estimated labor hours for individual fixed price contracts. Provisions for any estimated losses on uncompleted contracts are made in the period in which such losses become evident or estimatable. Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions --------------------------------------------- The majority of the Company's purchasing and sales transactions are denominated in US dollars, which is considered to be the functional currency of the Company and its subsidiaries. Certain sales to customers in Japan and Taiwan are invoiced in local currencies. Monetary assets and liabilities of the Company's foreign subsidiaries are remeasured into U.S. dollars from the local currency at rates in effect at period-end and non-monetary assets and liabilities are remeasured at historical rates. Revenues and expenses are remeasured at average rates during the period. Gains and losses arising from the remeasurement of local currency financial statements are included in other non-operating income. Stock-Based Compensation ------------------------ The Company accounts for stock option grants, as permitted by SFAS No. 123, Accounting For Stock-Based Compensation, in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, Accounting For Stock Issued To Employees. As such, compensation expense is recorded on the date of grant if the current market price of the underlying stock exceeds the exercise price. In accordance with SFAS No. 123, the Company discloses pro forma loss and pro forma loss per share amounts assuming the Company had accounted for employee stock option grants using the fair value-based method defined in SFAS No. 123. In March 2000, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 44 (FIN 44), Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation - an Interpretation of APB Opinion No. 25. FIN 44 clarifies certain elements of APB Opinion No. 25. Among other issues, this interpretation clarifies: the definition of employee for purposes of applying APB Opinion No. 25, the criteria for determining whether a plan qualifies as non-compensatory, the accounting consequences of various modifications to the terms of a previously fixed stock option award, and the accounting for an exchange of stock compensation in a business combination. The Company adopted this interpretation during fiscal 2001, effective as of the beginning of the year. The adoption of this interpretation did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations. 58 OAK TECHNOLOGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued) Income Taxes ------------ The Company records income taxes using an asset and liability approach that results in the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized differently in the Company's consolidated financial statements and tax returns. In estimating future tax consequences, all expected future events other than enactment of changes in tax laws or rates are considered. A valuation allowance is established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to amounts expected to be realized. Under certain provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, the availability of the Company's net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards may be subject to limitation if it should be determined that there has been a change in ownership of more than 50% of the value of the Company's stock. Such determination could limit the utilization of net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Net Loss Per Share ------------------ Basic net loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of common and dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding during the period, using the treasury stock method for options and warrants. The computation of diluted net loss per share excludes common equivalent shares since they are anti-dilutive in a loss period. The following is a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted loss per share computations for the periods presented (in thousands except per share amounts):
Year Ended June 30, ------------------------------- 2002 2001 2000 ---- ---- ---- Net loss....................................... $(26,950) $(30,632) $(32,862) Shares: Weighted average common shares............... 55,254 54,274 46,057 Dilutive stock options and other common stock equivalents................................ -- -- -- -------- -------- -------- Dilutive potential common shares........... 55,254 54,274 46,057 ======== ======== ======== Loss per share: Basic........................................ $ (0.49) $ (0.56) $ (0.71) ======== ======== ======== Diluted...................................... $ (0.49) $ (0.56) $ (0.71) ======== ======== ========
All outstanding options and warrants were excluded from dilutive earnings per share calculation because of their anti-dilutive impact on the Company's loss per share. Comprehensive Loss ------------------ The components of comprehensive loss, as required by SFAS 130 in fiscal 2002, 2001 and 2000 were due entirely to net unrealized losses on short-term investments (see Note 3) and as presented in the Statement of Stockholder's Equity. 59 OAK TECHNOLOGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued) Reclassifications ----------------- Certain prior year items have been reclassified to be consistent with current year presentation. The reclassifications have no effect on previously disclosed net loss or stockholders' equity. Recently Issued Accounting Standards ------------------------------------ In July 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets", which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. SFAS No. 142 requires, among other things, the discontinuance of goodwill amortization. In addition, the standard includes provisions upon adoption for the reclassification of certain existing recognized intangibles as goodwill, reassessment of the useful lives of existing recognized intangibles, reclassification of certain intangibles out of previously reported goodwill and the testing for impairment of existing goodwill and other intangibles. Oak will adopt SFAS No. 142 for its fiscal year beginning July 1, 2002. Upon adoption of SFAS No. 142, the Company will no longer amortize goodwill, and assembled workforce with a net carrying value of approximately $13.3 million at June 30, 2002. In lieu of amortization the Company will be required to periodically perform an impairment review of its goodwill balance beginning with the initial adoption. The Company currently does not expect to record any material impairment charges upon completion of the initial review. There are approximately $7 million of net intangible assets remaining on the balance sheet at June 30, 2002 that will continue to amortize, approximately $5 million of which will amortize in fiscal 2003. On October 3, 2001, the FASB issued SFAS 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets." SFAS 144 supersedes SFAS 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be disposed of." The primary objectives of SFAS 144 are to develop one accounting model based on the framework established in SFAS 121 for long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale, and to address significant implementation issues. The Company will adopt SFAS 144 for its fiscal year beginning July 1, 2002. At this time, management does not expect the adoption of SFAS 144 to have a material effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations. In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Exit or Disposal Activities" ("SFAS 146"). SFAS 146 addresses significant issues regarding the recognition, measurement, and reporting of costs that are associated with exit and disposal activities, including restructuring activities that are currently accounted for under EITF No. 94-3, "Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)." The scope of SFAS 146 also includes costs related to terminating a contract that is not a capital lease and termination benefits that employees who are involuntarily terminated receive under the terms of a one-time benefit arrangement that is not an ongoing benefit arrangement or an individual deferred-compensation contract. SFAS 146 will be effective for exit or disposal activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002 and early application is encouraged. We will adopt SFAS 146 for our third fiscal quarter beginning January 1, 2003 and do not expect that the adoption will have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. 60 OAK TECHNOLOGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued) (3) CASH, CASH EQUIVALENTS AND SHORT-TERM INVESTMENTS As of June 30, 2002, all investments were considered available-for-sale securities and consisted of the following (in thousands):

Due to the divestiture of the Broadband business in January 2000, the Company has an investment in 293,794 shares of Conexant Systems Inc. common stock which had an original book value of $68.05 per share. During fiscal 2001, the Company reduced the basis of this investment to a book value of $8.95 per share as a result of an impairment in the market value of the common stock which the Company believes was other than temporary. This resulted in a charge to non-operating expenses of $17.4 million during fiscal 2001. On June 25, 2002, a stock dividend was declared to Conexant shareholders in connection with the merger between Alpha Industries, Inc. and the wireless communications business of Conexant to create and form Skyworks Solutions, Inc. For each Conexant share, the Company received 0.351 shares of Skyworks Solutions Inc., or a total of 103,121 shares, and will continue to hold their existing Conexant shares. For fiscal 2002, the Company reduced the combined basis in these two investments to a book value of $1.62 per share for Conexant shares and $5.55 per share for Skyworks shares due to a further decline in the market value of the common stock which the Company believes to be other than temporary. This resulted in an additional charge to non-operating expenses of $1.6 million during fiscal 2002. As of June 30, 2002, the Company had outstanding, an irrevocable $1.2 million standby letter of credit in connection with its real estate lease on the Sunnyvale, California facility and an irrevocable $2.0 million standby letter of credit in connection with its real estate lease on the Woburn, Massachusetts facility. In both cases, these were required under the terms of the real estate leases. The financial institution issuing the letters of credit requires collateral to be pledged against these outstanding letters of credit. As of June 30, 2002, the Company had pledged $3.7 million of US government obligations as collateral at the issuing financial institution. OAK TECHNOLOGY, INC.

At June 30, 2002 and 2001, intangible assets consisted of purchased technology, goodwill and other miscellaneous intangibles acquired via a series of acquisitions including Accel, Xionics, Viewpoint, XLI and ODEUM. Purchased technology and other specific intangibles such as acquired workforce, patents, tradename and other miscellaneous acquisition expenses have been identified via independent fair value appraisals. Goodwill represents the excess purchase price over the fair value of assets acquired. See Note 10 for a more in-depth discussion of each acquisition. All intangible assets are being amortized over a period of three to five years from the respective dates of acquisition. Upon adoption of SFAS No. 142 for the fiscal year starting July 1, 2002, the Company will no longer amortize goodwill, and assembled workforce with a net carrying value of approximately $13.3 million at June 30, 2002. At June 30, 2002, there are approximately $7 million of net intangible assets remaining on the balance sheet that will continue to amortize, approximately $5 million of which will amortize in fiscal 2003. 63 OAK TECHNOLOGY, INC.

(10) ACQUISITIONS, DIVESTITURES AND INVESTMENTS Acquisitions ------------ On July 5, 2001, the Company acquired privately held Accel Technology, K.K. ("Accel") a company based in Osaka, Japan which develops the mechanical construction and design of computers and relevant equipment, such as CD-R/RW drives and DVD players. This acquisition allows Oak to move more quickly into the consumer space by providing turnkey platforms to consumer electronics customers to minimize their development efforts. The Company paid approximately $3.2 million in cash for all the outstanding common shares and stock options of Accel. The transaction has been accounted for under SFAS No. 141, "Business 64 OAK TECHNOLOGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued) Combinations," using the purchase method of accounting. The results of operations of Accel have been included in the results of Oak's consolidated financial statements from July 12, 2001. The historical operations of Accel are not material to the financial position or results of operations of the Company; therefore, no pro forma information is presented. The acquisition resulted in goodwill of approximately $3.1 million which is not being amortized in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 141 and 142. On April 24, 2000 the Company signed an Asset Purchase Agreement by and between Oak, TCD Labs and the shareholders of TCD Labs. Under the agreement, the Company paid $1.5 million in cash for the net assets of TCD and may be liable for an additional $1.5 million in contingent payments for the achievement of specific milestones, as well as a percentage of the direct contribution margins, both of which may be earned over the next three years. The acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. On January 11, 2000, the shareholders of both the Company and Xionics Document Technologies, Inc. (Xionics) approved a definitive acquisition agreement. Xionics designs, develops and markets innovative software and silicon solutions for printing, scanning, copying, processing and transmitting digital documents to computer peripheral devices that perform document imaging functions. Such devices include printers, copiers, scanners and multifunction peripherals that perform a combination of these imaging functions. Under the terms of the acquisition agreement, Oak issued approximately 9.5 million shares of its common stock and paid approximately $34.7 million in cash to acquire all of the common stock of Xionics. The Company recorded a charge of approximately $9.9 million against earnings in the third fiscal quarter of 2000 in order to write off the cost of in-process research and development acquired in the merger. At the acquisition date, Xionics had several in-process research and development projects in each of its product groups: languages, drivers, MFP's and its new complementary product for a Tandem copy/print engine. In each product group there were projects that had not yet achieved technological feasibility. As image processing represents a very specialized market, it is unlikely that Xionics' in process technology could be successfully deployed in alternative market applications. Further, it was determined that there was significant technological risk and substantial development expenses relating to each of the products under development. As a result, the Company took a $9.9 million charge against earnings in fiscal 2000 in order to reflect an allocation of the purchase price associated with the value of the in process research and development which, due to its uncertain future value at the date of acquisition, could not be considered an investment in an asset. The valuation of the acquired in-process research and development used by the Company was supported by independent fair valuation studies. The estimated value of in-process research and development was derived using the "Income Approach", which values an asset based on future cash flows that could potentially be generated by the asset over its estimated useful life. The future cash flows were discounted to their present value utilizing a discount rate of 14%. The amounts of the purchase price technology assigned to the fair values of in-process research and development and purchased technology represent management's best estimate. The Company did not anticipate any material changes from historical pricing, margins and expense levels in its valuation assumptions. In addition to the $9.9 million charge taken, approximately $45.8 million (representing the fair value of net intangible assets acquired in the merger) has been recorded as intangible assets on the Company's balance sheet and is being amortized over three to five years. The $45.8 million is made up of $18.6 million in purchased technology, $18.9 million in Goodwill and $8.3 million in other miscellaneous intangible assets including Acquired Workforce, Patents, Tradename and certain acquisition costs. The transaction has been accounted for under the purchase method of accounting, and accordingly, the financial statements include the results of operations of Xionics from the date of acquisition. 65 OAK TECHNOLOGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued) The amounts and components of the purchase price and the allocation of the purchase price to assets purchased are as follows (in thousands): Cash............................................................ $34,715 Common stock.................................................... 36,793 Fair value of Xionics stock options assumed..................... 8,380 ------- Total purchase price.......................................... $79,888 ======= Fair value of net tangible assets of Xionics.................... $24,187 Intangible assets and goodwill.................................. 45,843 Purchase of in-process research and development................. 9,858 ------- Total net tangible and intangible assets acquired.......... $79,888 =======
The following unaudited pro forma financial information presents the combined results of operations of Oak and Xionics as if the acquisition had occurred as of the beginning of fiscal 2000 after giving effect to certain adjustments, including amortization of intangibles.

Equity Investments ------------------ During the second quarter of fiscal 2000 the Company made an equity investment in a start-up venture, Earjam.com, with a first payment of approximately $1.0 million for a minority equity position. The Company recorded a charge of $0.2 million against earnings in the second fiscal quarter of 2000 to write-off the amount of the investment allocated to in-process research and development. In January 2000, the Company made an additional $2.0 million payment in Earjam.com during the third quarter of fiscal 2000 and recorded an additional special charge of $0.3 million in the third fiscal quarter of 2000 to write-off the remaining amount of the investment allocated to in-process research and development. The amounts allocated to the in- process research and development charges during the second and third quarters of fiscal 2000 were determined through an established valuation technique used in the high technology industry. The amount allocated to in-process research and development was expensed upon acquisition, because technological feasibility had not been established and no alternative uses exist. The investment has been accounted for under the equity method of accounting. Although the companies are continuing to work together, as of June 30, 2000, due to a shift in the sentiment of the equity markets with respect to financing internet based start-up ventures and concerns about Earjam.com's ability to finance ongoing operations, the Company decided to write-down the remaining book value of this investment as the decline was other than temporary. 66 OAK TECHNOLOGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued) Divestiture ----------- On June 21, 2000, the Company received notice that a company in which it held a small equity investment had been sold. The Company had indirectly acquired this equity interest through the acquisition of Xionics and valued it at fair market value on the date of acquisition. Subsequent to the acquisition, significant economic events occurred that resulted in an increase in the fair value of the investment. Under the terms of the sales agreement, Oak recorded a receivable for $2.6 million in other current assets which was subsequently received and a gain in other income of $1.2 million. On January 19, 2000, the Company announced the sale of its broadband business group located in the United Kingdom and associated intellectual property in the United States to Conexant Systems, Inc. Under the terms of the agreement, Oak received $24.9 million in cash and 293,794 shares of Conexant Systems Inc. common stock which had an original book value of $68.05 per share. The Company realized a gain of $22.1 million from the sale. During fiscal 2001, the Company reduced the basis of the shares of Conexant Systens Inc. common stock to a book value of $8.95 as a result of an impairment in the market value of the common stock which the Company believes is other than temporary resulting in a charge to non-operating expenses of $17.4 million. On June 25, 2002, a stock dividend was declared to Conexant shareholders in connection with the merger between Alpha Industries, Inc. and the wireless communications business of Conexant to create and form Skyworks Solutions, Inc. For each Conexant share, the Company received 0.351 shares of Skyworks Solutions Inc., or a total of 103,121 shares, and will continue to hold their existing Conexant shares. For fiscal 2002, the Company reduced the combined basis in these two investments to a book value of $1.62 per share for Conexant shares and $5.55 per share for Skyworks shares due to a further decline in the market value of the common stock which the Company believes to be other than temporary resulting in an additional charge to non-operating expenses of $1.6 million.

68 OAK TECHNOLOGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued) The Company has set up a valuation allowance of $59,031,000 as of June 30, 2002. Given the recent operating results of the Company, management believes a full valuation is warranted. Included in the valuation allowance as of June 30, 2002 is tax benefits attributable to non-compensatory stock options of $16,433,000 which, when realized, will be a credit to additional paid-in- capital. As of June 30, 2002 and 2001, the Company has federal and state net operating loss ("NOL") carryforwards of approximately $91,387,000 and $109,521,000, respectively, available to reduce future income subject to income taxes. The federal net operating loss carryforwards will begin to expire in fiscal year 2019. As of June 30, 2002 and 2001, the Company has state net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $54,080,000 and $73,240,000, respectively. State net operating loss carryforwards expire in fiscal years 2004 through 2006. As of June 30, 2002 and 2001, the Company has federal research and experimentation credit carryforwards of approximately $9,250,000 and $7,442,000, respectively, which expire from 2011 to 2021. The Company also has state research and experimentation tax credit carryforwards of approximately $8,654,000 and $6,334,000, respectively, which will be carried forward indefinitely. As of June 30, 2002 and 2001, the cumulative amount of unremitted earnings of non-US subsidiaries which the Company had not provided US taxes is approximately $5,410,000 and $13,171,000, respectively. The additional taxes that could arise if those earnings were to be remitted to the US would not be material after consideration of existing foreign tax credits. It is management's intent that these earnings will remain indefinitely invested outside the US. (12) COMMITMENTS Leases ------ The Company leases its US headquarters and certain facilities and equipment under non-cancelable operating leases. The Company is responsible for its share of expenses under the terms of certain of the leases. Future minimum lease payments under non-cancelable operating leases are as follows (in thousands):

AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued) Inventory Purchase Commitments ------------------------------ The Company subcontracts all of its manufacturing to independent foundries. As of June 30, 2002 and 2001, the Company had approximately $5.3 million and $4.4 million, respectively, in outstanding non-cancelable purchase commitments with various wafer fabrication subcontractors. (13) CONTINGENCIES The Company and various of its directors and former officers are parties to a consolidated class action lawsuit filed on behalf of all persons who purchased or acquired the Company's common stock (excluding the defendants and parties related to them) for the period July 27, 1995 through May 22, 1996. This state court proceeding, designated IN RE OAK TECHNOLOGY SECURITIES LITIGATION, Master File No. CV758510 was filed in Santa Clara County Superior Court in Santa Clara, California. The plaintiffs alleged violations of California securities laws and statutory deceit provisions as well as breaches of fiduciary duty and abuse of control. The plaintiffs sought unspecified monetary damages. The court dismissed all claims except the California Corporations Code Sections 25400/25500 cause of action against the Company, four officers and the Company's investment bankers and securities analysts. On July 16, 1998, the court provisionally certified a national class of all persons who purchased the Company's stock during the class period. On August 5, 2000 the court granted Company's motion for summary judgment and entered judgment in favor of the Company. The plaintiffs have appealed the court's decision which is currently under review by the Sixth District Court of Appeal. Based on its current information, the Company believes this suit to be without merit and will continue to defend its position vigorously. Although it is reasonably possible the court's ruling may be overturned on appeal and the Company may incur a loss upon an adverse conclusion of these claims, an estimate of any such loss cannot be made. Additionally, various of the Company's directors and former officers are defendants in three consolidated derivative actions pending in Santa Clara County Superior Court in Santa Clara, California, entitled IN RE OAK TECHNOLOGY DERIVATIVE ACTION, Master File No. CV758510. This lawsuit, which asserts a claim for breach of fiduciary duty and a claim under California securities law based upon the officers' and directors' trading in securities of the Company, has been stayed pending resolution of the above described class actions. The plaintiffs are seeking monetary damages, equitable relief and an accounting for the defendants' sales of shares of the Company's common stock. Based on its current information, the Company believes the suits to be without merit and will defend its position vigorously. Although it is reasonably possible the Company may incur a loss upon conclusion of these claims, an estimate of any such loss cannot be made. If any of the above pending actions are decided adversely to the Company, it would likely have a material adverse affect on the Company's financial condition, cash flows and results of operations. On October 27, 1997, the Company filed a complaint in the United States District Court, Northern District of California against UMC for breach of contract, breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing and fraud based on UMC's breach of a settlement agreement entered into by Oak and UMC as a means to resolve an ITC action filed by Oak based on the Company's belief that UMC was violating U.S. trade laws by the unlicensed importing or selling of certain CD-ROM controllers that infringed one or more of the Company's United States patents. Under the terms of the settlement agreement, effective July 31, 1997, UMC agreed to cease and desist the manufacture and/or importation into the United States of its specified CD-ROM controllers, except under certain limited conditions which expired on January 31, 1998. The settlement agreement additionally provided for the withdrawal of the Company's ITC complaint against UMC. On December 24, 1997, UMC answered the Company's complaint and counterclaimed by asserting causes of action for rescission, restitution, fraudulent concealment, mistake, lack of mutuality, interference and 70 OAK TECHNOLOGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued) declaratory judgment of non-infringement, invalidity and unenforceability of the Oak patent that was the subject of the ITC action filed against UMC. In a related action to the lawsuit that was commenced by the Company against UMC, on December 19, 1997, MediaTek, a UMC affiliated, Taiwanese entity, filed a complaint in the United States District Court, Northern District of California, against the Company for declaratory judgment of non- infringement, invalidity and unenforceability of the Oak patent that was the subject of the original ITC action against UMC, and intentional interference with prospective economic advantage. The Company filed its answer on January 8, 1998, denying all the allegations. The Company believes UMC's counterclaims and Mediatek's claims to be without merit. On June 11, 1998, the cases were consolidated for all purposes and stayed under 28 U.S.C. Section 1659, based on the judge's conclusion that the civil action involves the same issues before the International Trade Commission, initiated by Oak a second time as a result of the alleged breach of the settlement agreement. The stay was lifted due to the final resolution of the second ITC investigation and the decision of the Federal Circuit Court of Appeals on May 2, 2001 affirming the Commission's determination that there was no infringement of the Company's U.S. Patent No. 5,581, 715. The Federal Circuit Court of Appeals did not review the Commission's determination that the Company's U.S. Patent No. 5,581,715 was valid and enforceable. As a result of the decision rendered by the Federal Circuit Court of Appeals, and the lifting of the stay on the consolidated action pending in the United States District Court, Northern District of California, the parties are proceeding with the litigation. The trial in is scheduled to commence in January 2003. If any of the above pending actions with respect to UMC and MediaTek are decided adversely to the Company, it would likely have a material adverse affect on the Company's financial condition, cash flows and results of operations. On January 4, 2001 Samsung Electronics, a customer of the Company's Imaging Group, received a notification from Pitney Bowes alleging that the resolution enhancement technology (iRET) Samsung acquired from Xerographic Laser Images Corporation, Inc. ("XLI") in 1996 infringes Pitney Bowes U.S. Patent No. 4,386,272 ("272 patent"). XLI is a subsidiary of the Company as a result of an acquisition in the first quarter of Fiscal Year 1999. The terms of the agreement for the licensing of the iRET technology to Samsung require the Company, as successor in interest to XLI's assets and liabilities, to defend and indemnify Samsung from claims alleging the iRET technology supplied to Samsung infringes the intellectual property rights of a third party. On June 18, 2001 Pitney Bowes filed a complaint in the District Court of Connecticut, naming Samsung and others, claiming infringement of the '272 patent. On June 28, 2001 Samsung formally requested the Company to defend Samsung and the Company agreed to do so. Other XLI customers are also subject to Pitney Bowes allegation of infringement of the '272 patent. On September 7, 2001, the Company filed a motion to intervene on behalf of itself and for the benefit of any of its customers who may be subject to the Pitney Bowes allegations, in the District Court of Connecticut. The motion to intervene was granted on December 12, 2001. On February 5, 2002, this action was transferred to the United States District Court, District of Kentucky. The parties are proceeding with this litigation. If the above pending action, with respect to the Company's indemnification obligation in such action, is decided adversely, it would likely have a material adverse affect on the Company's financial condition, cash flows and results of operations. In January of 2002, the Company received a notice letter of infringement from Syndia Corporation, an assignee of U.S. Patent No. 4,702, 808 (" '808 patent") and U.S. Patent No. 5,131,941(" '941 patent") issued to Mr. Jerome Lemelson. The '808 and '941 patents claim certain plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition etch processes that are use in the manufacture of semiconductor chips. The notice letter asserts that the Company's use and sale of semiconductor chips manufactured using processes claimed by the '808 and '941 patents constitutes an infringement The Company uses TSMC to manufacture its semiconductor products, and has notified TSMC of the claims made by Syndia. The terms of an indemnification agreement between the Company 71 OAK TECHNOLOGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued) and TSMC require TSMC to indemnify Oak from claims alleging the manufacturing processes used by TSMC infringes the intellectual property rights of a third party. Pursuant to the terms of the indemnification agreement between the parties, TSMC has agreed to indemnify and hold the Company harmless against the claims made by Syndia. If TSMC fails to indemnify and hold the Company harmless, and Syndia is successful in its claim for infringement, it would likely have a material adverse affect on the Company's financial condition, cash flows and results of operations. (14) STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY The Company is authorized to issue two classes of stock, preferred stock and common stock, each with a par value of $0.001 per share. The Company has paid no cash dividends on its Common Stock since its incorporation and anticipates that for the foreseeable future it will continue to retain any earnings for use in its business. Preferred Stock --------------- The Company's Board of Directors has authorized 2,000,000 undesignated shares of preferred stock; none of these preferred shares have been issued. The Board is authorized, subject to any limitations prescribed by Delaware law, to provide for the issuance of shares of preferred stock in one or more series, to establish the number of shares to be included in each series, and to fix the powers, preferences and rights of the shares. Stock Repurchase Plan --------------------- On January 22, 1998, the Company announced that its board of directors had authorized the repurchase of up to 2.0 million shares of its common stock either in the open market or in private transactions. As of June 30, 1999 the Company had repurchased all 2.0 million shares for approximately $9.4 million. On July 29, 1999 the Company announced that its Board of Directors had approved a stock repurchase plan authorizing up to an additional four million shares of the Company. Repurchase was to be made from time to time at certain price thresholds over a one-year period. In fiscal 2000, the Company repurchased an additional 381,000 of its common stock for $1.8 million at $4.78 per share. As of June 30, 2000, the Company was holding approximately 2.4 million shares in treasury stock for approximately $11.3 million. On January 23, 2001, the Company's Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase authorizing the repurchase of up to four million shares of Oak Technology common stock in the open market or privately negotiated transactions over a one year period, unless further extended by the Board. The plan authorized but does not require the Company to repurchase all four million shares. During fiscal 2001, the Company repurchased 1,915,000 of its common stock for approximately $12.0 million at an average price of $6.275 per share. As of June 30, 2002, the Company has approximately 4.3 million shares of treasury stock at a book value of approximately $23.3 million. Stock Options ------------- Upon the re-incorporation of the Company in Delaware in February 1995, the Company assumed the obligations of its predecessor under the 1988 Stock Option Plan (the "1988 Plan"), as amended and restated. The Company does not intend to issue any additional options under the 1988 Plan. In December 1994, the Board of Directors approved the 1994 Stock Option Plan (the "1994 Plan") under which 6,000,000 shares of Common Stock, determined after the effect of a two for one stock split, were reserved for issuance. 6,000,000 additional shares were approved in November 1998, 1,900,000 shares were 72 OAK TECHNOLOGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued) approved in December 2000 and 1,900,000 shares were approved in February 2002. Under the 1994 Plan, either incentive or non-qualified options to purchase the Company's common stock may be granted to employees as determined by the Board of Directors at prices generally at market value at the date of grant (110% in certain cases of non-qualified options). Non-qualified options may be granted to employees, other non-employee directors and consultants as determined by the Board of Directors at prices not lower than 85% of market value at the date of grant. The Board of Directors also has the authority to set exercise dates (generally no longer than five years from date of grant), payment terms and other provisions for each grant. In December 1994 the Board of Directors also approved the 1994 Outside Directors' Stock Option Plan (the "Directors Plan"), under which 500,000 shares of Common Stock, determined after the effect of a two for one stock split, were reserved for issuance. The Directors Plan provides for the automatic grant of options to purchase shares of Common Stock to non-employee Directors of the Company. On July 17, 2001, the Company's Board of Directors authorized a stock option exchange program in which employees who held Oak options at a grant price of $15.00 or above had the option to exchange their existing options for new options to be issued at a later date (at least 6 months from date of cancellation) or to continue to hold the options they presently hold. In accordance with the exchange program, 776,480 existing options were cancelled on September 14, 2001 and were replaced with new grants on March 18, 2002. Stock options are subject to vesting, generally over 50 months, and typically have a ten-year life. Under the 1988 Plan, shares are exercisable prior to vesting and are held in escrow until vested; however, unvested shares are subject to a right of repurchase by the Company at their original purchase price upon termination of employment. Unexercised options expire 90 days after termination of employment with the Company. A summary of all the Company's stock option plans is set forth below:

At June 30, 2002, options to purchase 1,344,759 shares were available for future grants under the Company's stock option plans. 74 OAK TECHNOLOGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued) Stock Purchase Plan ------------------- In December 1994, the Board of Directors approved the 1994 Stock Purchase Plan (the "Stock Purchase Plan") under which 600,000 shares of common stock were reserved for issuance with the stock split; 1,000,000 additional shares were approved in November 1998, 700,000 shares were approved in December 2000, and 500,000 shares were approved in July 2002. The Stock Purchase Plan permits eligible employees to purchase shares at a price equal to 85% of the market value at certain pre-defined dates. Under the Stock Purchase Plan, 197,679, 189,520, and 444,012 shares were issued in fiscal years 2002, 2001 and 2000 at weighted average prices of $7.58, $9.06 and $3.05 and weighted average fair values of $3.61, $6.86 and $1.51, respectively. At June 30, 2002, 719,283 shares were available for future issuance under the Stock Purchase Plan. Stockholders Rights Plan ------------------------ On August 19, 1997 the Board of Directors of the Company declared a dividend of one preferred share purchase right (a "Right") for each outstanding share of Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Common Stock") of the Company. The dividend was payable on August 29, 1997 (the "Record Date") to the stockholders of record on that date. Each Right entitles the registered holder to purchase from the Company one one-thousandth of a share (a "Unit") of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share of the Company at a price of $60.00 per Unit subject to adjustment. The description and terms of the Rights are set forth in a Rights Agreement dated as of August 19, 1997 between the Company and BankBoston, N.A., as Rights Agent. The Rights expire on August 19, 2007. Fair Value Information ---------------------- The Company applies APB Opinion 25 and related Interpretations in accounting for its stock options plans. As the fair value of the options at the date of grant were equivalent to the exercise price, no compensation cost has been recognized for its stock option plans or its Stock Purchase Plan. Had compensation cost for the Company's option plans been determined consistent with FASB Statement No. 123, the Company's net loss and net loss per share would have been increased to the pro forma amounts indicated below (in thousands, except per share data):

(15) EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN In July 1990, the Company adopted a 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan ("401(k) Plan") which is intended to qualify under section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The 401(k) Plan covers substantially all of the Company's US employees. Participants may elect to contribute a percentage of their compensation to this plan, up to the statutory maximum amount. The Company makes contributions to the 401(k) Plan based on 25% of an employee's contribution up to a maximum of 1.25% of total compensation. Approximately $412,000, $408,000 and $326,000 in matching contributions were recorded during fiscal years 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. (16) RESTRUCTURING During fiscal 2002, the Company recorded restructuring charges of $3.2 million related to the reduction in force of approximately 70 employees company wide due to the restructuring of the overall business as well as additional probable losses on a sublease where the tenant experienced financial difficulty and abandoned the facility with approximately five years remaining on the sublease. The Company expects that the remaining amounts payable under the terms of the sublease will be paid in cash by the end of fiscal 2003. All severance related amounts are expected to be paid in cash prior to December 31, 2002. During fiscal 2001, the Company recorded restructuring charges of $2.6 million related to the reduction in force due to the restructuring of the overall business and the planned sublease of the resulting excess office space offset by a recovery of $0.8 million related to fiscal 2000 restructuring. Approximately 30 employees were included in the reduction in force. During fiscal 2000, the Company had accrued $3.3 million as restructuring charges, primarily related to the abandonment of its leased facility in Andover, Massachusetts. The Company was able to negotiate a new sublease of the previously abandoned facility. This recovery resulted in a net restructuring charge of $1.8 million to the fiscal 2001 income statement. The expenses relating to the fiscal 2001 and 2002 restructuring charges are summarized as follows (in thousands):

76 OAK TECHNOLOGY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued) (17) SEGMENT INFORMATION SFAS No. 131 establishes standards for the reporting by public business enterprises of information about operating segments, products and services, geographic areas, and major customers. The method for determining what information to report is based on the way that management organizes the operating segments within the Company for making operational decisions and assessments of financial performance. The Company's chief operating decision- maker is considered to be the chief executive officer ("CEO"). For the first two quarters of fiscal year 2000, Oak Technology had three reportable segments offering different product lines to each of its target markets: Optical Storage, Imaging and Consumer. The Optical Storage Group provides high-performance controllers for CD-ROM and CD-RW to OEM's who serve the optical storage market. The Imaging Group provides high-performance imaging systems for the digital imaging environment, including products used in digital laser copiers and printers as well as multifunction peripherals. The Consumer Group targeted its products for the digital entertainment system market, with focus on integrated circuits for video disk player systems (DVD and VCD) and digital broadcast applications. With the sale of the broadband business to Conexant in early January 2000, the Company has two remaining reportable segments: Optical Storage and Imaging. The Company evaluates operating segment performance based on net revenues and direct operating expenses of these segments. The accounting policies of the operating segments are the same as those described in the summary of accounting policies. Imaging segment information reported for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2001 and 2000 includes the effects of the Xionics acquisition completed on January 11, 2000. The Company does not allocate assets to its individual operating segments. No reportable segments have been aggregated.
