Item 1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement

Amendment to Credit Agreement and Waiver
On October 25, 2006, InFocus Corporation (“InFocus”) entered into a Sixth Amendment to Credit Agreement and Waiver (the “Amendment”) to its credit agreement with Wells Fargo Foothills, Inc. dated October 25, 2004 (the “Agreement”).

InFocus was in default of certain covenant and other provisions of the Agreement as of September 30, 2006. There were no borrowings outstanding as of that date. The Amendment waived the defaults as of September 30, 2006, extended the maturity date of the Agreement to March 31, 2007 and reduced the amount available to borrow from $25 million to $15 million.

A copy of the Amendment is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1.

Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition

On October 31, 2006, InFocus issued a press release announcing a net loss of $19.4 million, or $0.49 per share, on revenues of $81.2 million for its third quarter ended September 30, 2006.  InFocus also announced a net loss of $48.6 million, or $1.23 per share, on revenues of $290.9 million, for the nine months ended September 30, 2006. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1.

We provide in the press release certain non-GAAP financial measures, including pro forma net loss and pro forma net loss per share. As used herein, “GAAP” refers to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. These non-GAAP financial measures exclude restructuring and other non-recurring charges from the directly comparable GAAP measures. As required by Regulation G, the press release contains a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures. We believe the non-GAAP measures are useful to investors because they provide an alternative method for measuring the operating performance of our business, excluding certain non-recurring and non-cash items that would normally be included in the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. Our management uses these non-GAAP financial measures along with the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures in evaluating our operating performance. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information presented in compliance with GAAP, and non-GAAP financial measures as reported by us may not be comparable to similarly titled items reported by other companies.

Item 9.01  Financial Statements and Exhibits

(d)                                 Exhibits

10.1                           Sixth Amendment to Credit Agreement and Waiver dated October 25, 2006 between InFocus Corporation and Wells Fargo Foothills, Inc.

InFocus® Announces Third Quarter 2006
Financial Results

WILSONVILLE, Ore., October 31, 2006 — InFocus® Corporation (NASDAQ: INFS) today announced its third quarter 2006 financial results.  On revenues of $81.2 million, the Company posted a net loss of $19.4 million, or $0.49 per share, compared to a net loss of $12.8 million, or $0.32 per share, for the second quarter of 2006 and a net loss of $38.3 million, or $0.97 per share for the third quarter of 2005.

The third quarter 2006 results include a number of noteworthy transactions combining to increase the reported loss for the quarter by $10.1 million, or $0.25 per share.  The details of these transactions are as follows:

·                              A $1.6 million inventory charge to cost of goods sold related to the write down to estimated net realizable value of remaining inventory and commitments for the IN72, the company’s entry level home product;

·                              A restructuring charge of $0.9 million, primarily related to severance for actions taken to reduce the Company’s cost structure;

·                              A non-cash regulatory assessment charge of $5.1 million consisting of an estimated charge of $6.4 million related to the ongoing Shanghai customs matter and a $1.3 million reversal of the remaining accrued liability related to the investigation into possible infractions of U.S. export law;

·                              A charge of $1.1 million to other expense related to an estimate of wind down costs for South Mountain Technologies; and

·                              An impairment charge of $1.4 million related to The University Network, based on the difference between the carrying cost of these assets and the estimated net proceeds from an expected sale of these assets to a third party.

The Company reported total cash and marketable securities as of September 30, 2006 of $79.7 million with no debt outstanding.  In addition, the Company has agreed with Wells Fargo Foothill to amend their existing line of credit by extending the maturity date to March 31, 2007 and reducing the available borrowings under the line from $25 million to $15 million.

Quarterly Revenue, Unit, ASP and Gross Margin Comparisons

Third quarter revenues of $81.2 million were down 17 percent compared with second quarter revenues and down 38 percent from revenues in the third quarter of 2005.  Revenues were down from the second quarter in both the Americas and Europe, primarily a result of lower revenues from meeting room projectors through the PC distribution channel.  The Company’s main stream meeting room product line transitioned during the quarter and its new 2000 lumen IN32 and 2500 lumen IN34 projectors only began shipping in mid September.  As a result of the timing of this transition, total revenues from this product category were down significantly quarter to quarter.

1




These new products are expected to be broadly available during the fourth quarter.  Revenues from sales of the Company’s value projectors, the IN24 and IN26, and mobile projectors, were also down during the quarter.

Gross margins declined to 12.7 percent in the third quarter of 2006 from 15 percent in the second quarter. Overall, average selling prices were down 5 percent quarter to quarter.  Projector unit shipments were approximately 74,000 units in the third quarter, down 12 percent from the prior quarter.

Operating Expenses Comparison Excluding Charges

Operating expenses, exclusive of restructuring charges and regulatory assessments, were $21.1 million for the third quarter of 2006, down $2.4 million from the second quarter of 2006, and down $6.1 million from the third quarter of 2005.

Other expense, net for the third quarter was $2.4 million compared to other expense of $2.8 million in the second quarter and other income of $5.5 million in the third quarter of 2005.

          Balance Sheet

Total cash and marketable securities as of September 30, 2006 were $79.7 million, a decrease of $12.7 million from the end of June.  Days sales outstanding for the quarter were 55 days, a decrease of 3 days from the prior quarter.  Inventory levels increased $4.1 million during the quarter to $51.6 million, a result of lower than expected revenues for the quarter.

Outlook for Fourth Quarter 2006

During the fourth quarter of 2006, the following factors are expected to influence revenues and gross margins:

·                              Industry unit growth due to the traditional fourth quarter seasonal uplift;

·                              Continued aggressive price competition; and

·                              Greater revenue contribution from new products.

Relative to operating expenses, the Company expects to achieve a reduction in reported operating expenses as the benefits of further restructuring actions are realized, The University Network sale is completed, and further actions are taken to fine tune the business model to reduce the Company’s break even point.  These savings will be somewhat offset by the costs of a retention plan that will pay a bonus to all employees other than the Chief Executive Officer who remain employed by the Company through April 30, 2007.

While the Company expects revenues and gross margins to increase from third quarter levels and operating expenses to decline as a result of the factors mentioned above, the Company is not giving specific financial guidance for future periods at this time.

“While the Board of Directors conducts its evaluation of strategic alternatives, it is critical that the management and employees of the Company stay focused on improving the operations of the business,” stated Kyle Ranson, President and CEO, InFocus.  “Managing cost is one part of that equation, but it is also critical that we leverage our core strengths to grow revenues and gross margins,” concluded Ranson.

Reconciliation of GAAP and Pro Forma Information

The Company has recorded charges that are excluded from operating expenses and earnings for comparative purposes.  In accordance with SEC FR-59, attached is a Statement of Reconciliation of GAAP Earnings.

Conference Call Information
