NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Note 1. Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial information included herein has been prepared by InFocus Corporation without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). However, such information reflects all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods. The financial information as of December 31, 2007 is derived from our 2007 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in our 2007 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Results of operations for the interim period presented are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

Note 2. Inventories

Inventories are valued at the lower of purchased cost or market, using average purchase costs, which approximates the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. For finished goods inventory, the average purchase costs include overhead items, such as inbound freight and other logistics costs. Following is a detail of our inventory (in thousands):

 

     March 31,
2008
   December 31,
2007

Lamps and accessories

   $ 2,608    $ 4,487

Service inventories

     4,428      4,413

Finished goods

     19,917      19,521
             

Total non-consigned inventories

   $ 26,953    $ 28,421
             

Consigned finished good inventories

   $ 1,111    $ 2,563
             

Total inventories

   $ 28,064    $ 30,984
             

We classify our inventory in four categories: lamps and accessories, service inventories, finished goods and consigned finished goods inventories. Lamps and accessories consist of replacement lamps and other new accessory products such as screens, remotes and ceiling mounts. These items can either be sold as new or can be consumed in service repair activities. Service inventories consist of service parts held for warranty or customer repair activities, remanufactured projectors and projectors in the process of being repaired. Finished goods inventory consists of new projectors in our logistics centers and new projectors in transit from our contract manufacturers where title transfers at shipment. Consigned finished goods inventories consist of new projectors held by certain retailers on consignment until sold. Inventories are reported on the consolidated balance sheets net of reserve for obsolete and excess inventories of $4.3 million and $4.7 million, respectively, as of March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007.

Note 3. Earnings Per Share

Since we were in a loss position for both periods presented, there was no difference between the number of shares used to calculate basic and diluted loss per share for either period. Potentially dilutive securities that are not included in the diluted loss per share calculations because they would be anti-dilutive included the following (in thousands):

Note 5. Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation expense was included in our statements of operations as follows (in thousands):

 

Three Months Ended March 31,

   2008    2007

Cost of revenues

   $ 123    $ 33

     223      88
             
   $ 667    $ 249
             

In the first quarter of 2008, we issued 1,019,500 stock options to certain employees under the 1998 Stock Incentive Plan. The fair value of these options, as determined utilizing the Black-Scholes option pricing model, was $0.7 million and is being recognized over the vesting period of these options.

Additionally, on January 21, 2008, in connection with the hiring of our new Chief Financial Officer, we issued the following stock-based awards:

 

 

 

100,000 shares of restricted stock, which vest as to 25% of the total on the first anniversary of the grant date and as to an additional  1/48 of the total each month thereafter, with full vesting occurring on the fourth anniversary of the grant date. The fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant was $1.57 per share. Accordingly, the fair value of this restricted stock grant was $0.2 million and is being recognized over the four-year vesting period.

 

 

 

An option exercisable for 150,000 shares of our common stock, which vests as to 25% of the total on the first anniversary of the grant date and as to an additional  1/48 of the total each month thereafter, with full vesting occurring on the fourth anniversary of the grant date. The fair value of this option, as determined utilizing the Black-Scholes option pricing model, was $0.1 million and is being recognized over the four-year vesting period of the option.

The stock options and restricted stock granted to the new Chief Financial Officer described above, as well as certain of the employee stock options issued in the first quarter of 2008, are subject to accelerated vesting in certain circumstances upon the occurrence of a change of control.

To determine the fair value of stock options granted in the first quarter of 2008, we used the Black-Scholes option pricing model and the following weighted average assumptions:

 

Risk-free interest rate

   2.13 - 2.46

Expected dividend yield

   0%

Expected lives (years)

   3.75 - 4.75

Expected volatility

   51.7% - 56.6%

Discount for post vesting restrictions

   0%

 

6


Table of Contents

The risk-free interest rate used is based on the U.S. Treasury yield over the estimated life of the options granted. Our option pricing model utilizes the simplified method accepted under Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 to estimate the expected life of the option. The expected volatility for options granted pursuant to our stock incentive plans is calculated based on our historical volatility over the estimated term of the options granted. We have not paid cash dividends in the past and we do not expect to pay cash dividends in the future resulting in the dividend rate assumption above.

We amortize stock-based compensation on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the individual award with estimated forfeitures considered. Shares to be issued upon the exercise of stock options will come from newly issued shares.

Note 6. Product Warranties

We evaluate our obligations related to product warranties on a quarterly basis. In general, we offer a standard two-year warranty and, for certain customers, products and regions, we offer a three-year warranty. We monitor failure rates on a product category basis through data collected by our manufacturing sites, factory repair centers and authorized service providers. The service organizations also track costs to repair each unit. Costs include labor to repair the projector, replacement parts for defective items, freight costs and other incidental costs associated with warranty repairs. Any cost recoveries from warranties offered to us by our suppliers covering defective components are also considered, as well as any cost recoveries of defective parts and material, which may be repaired at a factory repair center or through a third party. In addition, as our contract manufacturing partners have improved the manufacturing quality of the projectors we sell, we have begun the transition towards purchasing warranty coverage as part of the product we source. For the products procured from the contract manufacturer with warranty coverage included, our future liability is calculated based on the delta between the warranty period offered from the contract manufacturer and the warranty period offered to the end customer. This data is then used to calculate our future warranty liability based on actual quantity of projectors sold in each projector category and warranty model, and remaining warranty periods. For new product introductions where we have not purchased a supplier warranty, our quality control department estimates the initial failure rates based on test and manufacturing data and historical experience for similar platform projectors. If circumstances change, or a dramatic change in the failure rates were to occur, our estimate of the warranty liability could change significantly. Revenue generated from sales of extended warranty contracts is deferred and recognized as revenue over the term of the extended warranty coverage. Deferred warranty revenue totaled $1.8 million and $2.1 million, respectively, at March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007, and was included in other current liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets. Our warranty accrual at March 31, 2008 totaled $8.6 million, of which $5.5 million was classified as a component of current liabilities and $3.1 million was classified as long-term liabilities on our consolidated balances sheets.

The following is a reconciliation of the changes in the aggregate warranty liability for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2008 and 2007 (in thousands):

   $ 8,585     $ 12,731  
                

Note 7. Letter of Credit and Restricted Cash, Cash Equivalents and Marketable Securities

At March 31, 2008, we had two outstanding letters of credit totaling $12.5 million. The letters of credit secure our obligations to suppliers for the purchase of inventory. One letter of credit totaling $11.0 million expired on May 2, 2008 and was subsequently amended with a new expiration date of August 2, 2008 and the outstanding amount was reduced to $0.3 million. The reduction in the value of this letter of credit is linked to reduced obligations for purchases of lamps and other spare parts inventory as we wind down our business relationship with this supplier. The second letter of credit,

Table of Contents

totaling $1.5 million, expires on September 30, 2008. The fair value of these letters of credit approximates their contract values. The letters of credit were collateralized by $13.5 million of cash and marketable securities at March 31, 2008, and, as such, are reported as restricted on the consolidated balance sheets. The remaining restricted cash and marketable securities of $1.6 million secures our merchant credit card processing account, deposits for building leases and value added taxes in foreign jurisdictions.

Note 8. Line of Credit Amendment

In the first quarter of 2008, we amended our line of credit facility with Wells Fargo Foothill, Inc. (“Wells Fargo”) to:

 

   

extend the maturity date of the credit facility to August 31, 2008;

 

   

reduce the line of credit (and letters of credit that can be issued thereunder) to $10,000,000;

 

   

reduce the amount of the accounts owed by one customer that can be included in the borrowing base for the line of credit;

 

   

establish minimum EBITDA covenants for the extended loan period; and

 

   

amend our reporting requirements.

At March 31, 2008, we did not have any amounts outstanding under the credit facility and we were in compliance with all financial covenants.

Note 9. Restructuring

At March 31, 2008, we had $4.7 million of restructuring costs accrued on our consolidated balance sheet classified as other current liabilities. We expect the majority of the severance and related costs to be paid by the end of 2008, and the lease loss to be paid over the related lease terms through 2011, net of estimated sub-lease rentals. The following table displays a roll-forward of the accruals established for restructuring (in thousands):

Note 11. Fair Value Measurements

Effective January 1, 2008, we adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements,” for our financial assets and liabilities. The adoption of this portion of SFAS No. 157 did not have any effect on our financial position or results of operations and we do not expect the adoption of the provisions of SFAS No. 157 related to non-financial assets and liabilities to have an effect on our financial position or results of operations. Although the adoption of SFAS No. 157 did not materially impact our results of operations, we are now required to provide additional disclosures as part of our financial statements.

SFAS No. 157 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring the fair value of our financial assets and liabilities and are summarized into three broad categories:

 

   

Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities;

 

   

Level 2 – other significant observable inputs, including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.; and

 

   

Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs, including our own assumptions in determining fair value.

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Following are the disclosures related to our financial assets pursuant to SFAS No. 157 (in thousands):

 

     March 31, 2008
   Fair Value    Input Level

Held to maturity marketable securities

   $ 29,583    Level 1

Our held to maturity marketable securities are recorded at cost on our balance sheets, however, we reference their fair value, based on quoted market prices, on a quarterly basis in order to help us determine if an other than temporary impairment has occurred.

Note 12. New Accounting Pronouncements

SFAS No. 161

In March 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” which requires certain disclosures related to derivative instruments. SFAS No. 161 is effective prospectively for interim periods and fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. We do not have any derivative instruments that fall under the guidance of SFAS No. 161 and, accordingly, the adoption of SFAS No. 161 will not have any effect on our financial position or results of operations.

SFAS No. 141R and SFAS No. 160

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141R, “Business Combinations,” and SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements.” SFAS Nos. 141R and 160 require most identifiable assets, liabilities, noncontrolling interests and goodwill acquired in a business combination to be recorded at “full fair value” and require noncontrolling interests (previously referred to as minority interests) to be reported as a component of equity, which changes the accounting for transactions with noncontrolling interest holders. Both statements are effective for periods beginning on or after December 15, 2008 and earlier adoption is prohibited. SFAS No. 141R will be applied to business combinations occurring after the effective date and SFAS No. 160 will be applied prospectively to all noncontrolling interests, including any that arose before the effective date. We do not have any noncontrolling interests and, accordingly, we do not expect the adoption of SFAS Nos. 141R and 160 to have any effect on our financial position or results of operations.

EITF 07-3

In June 2007, the Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) issued EITF 07-3, “Accounting for Advance Payments for Goods or Services to Be Used in Future Research and Development Activities,” which states that non-refundable advance payments for services that will be consumed or performed in a future period in conducting research and development activities on behalf of the company should be recorded as an asset when the advance payment is made and then recognized as an expense when the research and development activities are performed. The adoption of EITF

07-3 effective January 1, 2008 did not have any effect on our financial position or results of operations.

SFAS No. 159

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities,” which allows companies to elect to measure specified financial instruments, warranty and insurance contracts at fair value on a contract-by-contract basis with changes in fair value recognized in earnings each reporting period. The election is called the “fair value option.” SFAS No. 159 applies to all reporting entities and contains financial statement presentation and disclosure requirements for assets and liabilities reported at fair value under the fair value option. The adoption of SFAS No. 159 effective January 1, 2008 did not have any effect on our financial position or results of operations.

Company Profile

InFocus Corporation is the industry pioneer and a worldwide leader in digital projection technology. We have over twenty years of innovative experience allowing us to constantly improve our product offerings and deliver a compelling immersive visual experience in business, education and home entertainment environments. Our products include projectors and related accessories for use in the conference room, board room, auditorium, classroom and living room. With one of the largest installed bases of projectors in the industry, we are also the most recognized brand in the U.S. projector market according to TFCinfo, the premiere market research organization for advanced display technologies.

Overview

The first quarter of a given year has typically represented our most challenging quarter of that year, as we experience aggressive competition from our Asian competitors as they end their fiscal years. We experienced declines in revenues and units in each of our three regions, but our largest decline in revenue was in the Americas. Despite the reduction in unit volume and associated revenue in the first quarter of 2008, we were able to hold gross margins above 20%, which we achieved with the products launched over the past two quarters and improved product mix.

In the first quarter of 2008, we made good progress in many areas of our business. With the launch of four new projectors during the quarter, the IN2102, IN2104, IN2106 and the IN83, we have refreshed over 90% of our projector portfolio in the last nine months. During the quarter, we also announced a partnership with DisplayLink Corporation, which will add USB connectivity to future InFocus projectors. We also continued our investment initiatives in the areas of sales, marketing and product development, which are the basis of our long-term growth plans.

We are taking actions to realign and expand our sales coverage model in North America, where we are significantly increasing our field sales personnel. The additional staff will be used to find new customers and opportunities for InFocus products as well as to better serve the existing customer base. We are also placing additional focus on key growth areas across multiple channels, vertical markets and regions.

We have streamlined our regional and global marketing functions to drive greater efficiencies and eliminate redundant activities. The centrally driven organization will continue to understand specific regional needs, but will ensure our initiatives and programs are focused on revenue-generating marketing activities.

While our patent portfolio remains strong and growing, we will continue to invest in advanced development for new projection opportunities and applications. We currently have 230 U.S. patents issued in our name with another 85 patents pending. Additionally, we will seek to partner with third parties where a solution may be more readily available. In the first quarter of 2008, we announced a partnership with DisplayLink Corporation to utilize DisplayLink’s USB graphics connection technology in our future products. This addition will improve ease of use of our products and will allow for application innovations for new projector solutions. We expect to explore other opportunities to leverage third parties’ technology and products where there are market opportunities outside of our core competencies or a solution is more readily available for incorporation into our overall solution.

Revenues

Revenues decreased $16.6 million, or 21.4%, in the three months ended March 31, 2008 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2007.

This decrease in revenue was due to a 24% decrease in total units sold to 69,000 units in the first quarter of 2008 compared to 91,000 units in the first quarter of 2007, partially offset by a 3.7% increase in overall average selling prices (“ASPs”), due to a product mix shift toward higher revenue products. ASPs were negatively affected in the first quarter of 2007 by increased sales of our lower margin, entry level meeting room and home products as we aggressively depleted existing inventory to make room for higher margin follow on products.

We also experienced a $20.1 million decrease in revenue in the first quarter of 2008 compared to the fourth quarter of 2007, primarily due to a 26% decrease in units sold to 69,000 units in the first quarter of 2008 compared to 94,000 units in the fourth quarter of 2007, partially offset by a 2.2% increase in overall ASPs. The decline in units sold was primarily due to seasonality from the fourth quarter of one year to the first quarter of the next and softness experienced in the market in the United States. The increase in ASPs related to a product mix shift toward higher margin generating products.

U.S. revenues decreased 32% in the first quarter of 2008 compared to the first quarter of 2007 and 23% compared to the fourth quarter of 2007. The decrease compared to the first quarter of 2007 was primarily due to a 45% decrease in units shipped, offset by a 22% increase in overall ASPs. The decrease in units and offsetting increase in ASPs was primarily the result of large sales volumes in first quarter 2007 of low margin and end of life entry level meeting room and home entertainment products. The decrease compared to the fourth quarter of 2007 was primarily due to a 31% decrease in units shipped, primarily due to seasonality, offset by an increase in overall ASPs of 12%. This increase in ASPs was achieved through improved product mix. We are focusing on increasing our channel breadth in the U.S. in an effort to improve revenues.

European revenues decreased 12% in the first quarter of 2008 compared to the first quarter of 2007 and 36% compared to the fourth quarter of 2007. The decrease compared to the first quarter of 2007 was primarily due to a decrease in ASPs of approximately 18%, offset by an increase in units shipped of 8%. The decrease compared to the fourth quarter of 2007 was primarily due to a 34% decrease in units shipped resulting from a stronger than average fourth quarter, which increased the effect of the typical business seasonality in the European region.

Asian revenues decreased 2% in the first quarter of 2008 compared to the first quarter of 2007 and 5% compared to the fourth quarter of 2007. The decrease compared to the first quarter of 2007 was primarily due to a 7% increase in units shipped, offset by a 9% decrease in ASPs. The decrease compared to the fourth quarter of 2007 was primarily due to 14% decrease in ASPs, partially offset by an 11% increase in units shipped, as a result of sales of end of life meeting room and value products as well as our participation in the government tender season in India, which typically involves lower margin products.

Other revenues primarily consist of sales in Canada and Latin America. Other revenues increased 10% in the first quarter of 2008 compared to the first quarter of 2007 and decreased 14% compared to the fourth quarter of 2007. The slight increase in other revenues compared to the first quarter of 2007 was primarily due to a 26% increase in ASPs, offset by a 13% decrease in units shipped. The decrease compared to the fourth quarter of 2007 was primarily due to a decrease in units shipped.

Backlog

At March 31, 2008, we had backlog of approximately $6.5 million, compared to approximately $6.6 million at December 31, 2007. Given current supply and demand estimates, it is anticipated that a majority of the current backlog will turn over by the end of the second quarter of 2008. The stated backlog is not necessarily indicative of sales for any future period, nor is a backlog any assurance that we will realize a profit from filling the orders.

Gross Margin

We achieved gross margins of 20.4% in the first quarter of 2008, compared to 10.9% in the first quarter of 2007 and 20.4% in the fourth quarter of 2007.

The increase in gross margin in the first quarter of 2008 compared to the first quarter of 2007 was due to a shift in product mix to higher-priced and higher-margin products, as well as cost benefits associated with the products introduced over the past two quarters. Gross margins remained unchanged from the fourth quarter of 2007 compared to the first quarter of 2008 at 20.4%. We were able to maintain gross margins of 20.4% on the significantly lower unit volume through better product mix between the two quarters. Charges for inventory related write-downs totaled $1.5 million in the first quarter of 2008, $1.6 million in the first quarter of 2007 and $1.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2007.

Marketing and Sales Expense

Marketing and sales expense decreased $1.3 million, or 14%, to $8.3 million in the first quarter of 2008 compared to $9.6 million in the first quarter of 2007. The decrease in marketing and sales expense was primarily due to an effort to reduce our cost structure to better align with current revenue levels, as well as decreases in certain marketing programs, such as cooperative advertising, which directly correlate with trends in revenue, and decreases in advertising related spending.

Research and Development Expense

Research and development expense decreased $1.3 million, or 32%, to $2.8 million in the first quarter of 2008 compared to $4.1 million in the first quarter of 2007. This decrease was primarily due to a reduced cost structure related to our previous restructuring activities, including a decrease in personnel related costs and other discretionary spending. We have shifted our research and development model to outsource more of the design functions to our contract manufacturers, which allowed us to reduce our in-house research and development resources.

General and Administrative Expense

General and administrative expense decreased $1.1 million, or 20%, to $4.4 million in the first quarter of 2008 compared to $5.5 million in the first quarter of 2007. Included in general and administrative expense in the first quarter of 2007 was $0.8 million of costs incurred during the quarter for various external advisors engaged as part of a strategic alternatives evaluation process. The remainder of the decrease of $0.3 was primarily related to a reduced cost structure, including decreases in personnel related costs and other discretionary spending.

Restructuring

Restructuring charges of $2.4 million in the first quarter of 2007 primarily related to estimated lease losses on vacated or partially vacated facilities at our corporate headquarters and various European office locations and estimated severance costs related to further headcount reductions.

At March 31, 2008, we had $4.7 million of restructuring costs accrued on our consolidated balance sheet classified as other current liabilities. See further detail in Note 9 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Other Income (Expense)

Interest income decreased $0.2 million to $0.5 million in the first quarter of 2008 compared to $0.7 million in the first quarter of 2007 primarily due to lower interest rates. Average cash and investment balances were $29.4 million and $29.0 million, respectively, in the first quarter of 2008 and 2007.

Other, net consisted of the following:

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Total cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and marketable securities were $72.9 million at March 31, 2008. Working capital totaled $85.7 million at March 31, 2008, which included $57.8 million of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents. The current ratio at March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007 was 2.4 to 1 and 2.0 to 1, respectively.

We sustained an operating loss of $3.1 million in the first quarter of 2008 and an increase in net working capital of $2.4 million for the period. If we continue to experience significant operating losses or experience significant reductions in net working capital, we may need to obtain additional debt or equity financing to continue current business operations. There is no guarantee that we will be able to raise additional funds on favorable terms, if at all.

We have a $10 million line of credit facility with Wells Fargo Foothill, Inc. (“Wells Fargo”). On March 14, 2008, we entered into an amendment to extend the maturity date of the credit facility to August 31, 2008 and establish future financial covenants. As of March 31, 2008, there were no borrowings outstanding under the agreement and we were in compliance with all financial covenants.

We anticipate that our current cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities, along with cash we anticipate generating from operations, will be sufficient to fund our known operating and capital requirements for at least the next 12 months. However, to the extent our operating results fall below our expectations, we may need to raise additional capital through debt or equity financings. We may also need additional capital if we pursue other strategic growth opportunities. There is no guarantee that we will be able to raise additional funds on favorable terms, if at all.

At March 31, 2008, we had two outstanding letters of credit totaling $12.5 million. The letters of credit secure our obligations to suppliers for the purchase of inventory. One letter of credit, totaling $11.0 million, expired on May 2, 2008 and was subsequently amended with a new expiration date of August 2, 2008 and the outstanding amount was reduced to $0.3 million. The reduction in the value of this letter of credit is linked to reduced obligations for purchases of lamps and other spare parts inventory as we wind down our business relationship with this supplier. The second letter of credit, totaling $1.5 million, expires on September 30, 2008. The fair value of these letters of credit approximates their contract values. The letters of credit were collateralized by $13.5 million of cash and marketable securities at March 31, 2008, which are reported as restricted on the consolidated balance sheets. The remaining restricted cash and marketable securities of $1.6 million secures our merchant credit card processing account, deposits for building leases and value added taxes in foreign jurisdictions.

Accounts receivable decreased $8.9 million to $37.4 million at March 31, 2008 compared to $46.3 million at December 31, 2007, due primarily to lower sales in the first quarter of 2008 compared to the fourth quarter of 2007, partially offset by an increase in days sales outstanding (“DSO”) to 55 days at March 31, 2008 compared to 51 days at December 31, 2007. The increase in DSO of 4 days was primarily driven by the timing of sales during the quarter when compared to the fourth quarter of 2007.

Total inventories, including consigned inventories, decreased $2.9 million to $28.1 million at March 31, 2008 compared to $31.0 million at December 31, 2007. This decrease primarily resulted from a $1.5 million decrease in consigned inventories as we are exiting the “brick and mortar” retail channel in the United Sates, as well as reductions in lamps and accessories inventory. See Note 2 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a summary of the components of inventory as of these dates.

At March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007, we had approximately 6 weeks and 5 weeks of inventory, respectively, in the Americas channel. Annualized inventory turns were approximately 8 times for the quarter ended March 31, 2008 and 7 times for the quarter ended December 31, 2007.

Table of Contents

Other current assets increased $2.6 million to $10.1 million at March 31, 2008 compared to $7.5 million at December 31, 2007. The increase in other current assets was due primarily to a foreign currency forward contract receivable of $2.3 million on the balance sheet at March 31, 2008 related to the timing of settlement of our March foreign currency forward contracts, compared to a foreign currency forward contract receivable of $0 at December 31, 2007.

Expenditures for property and equipment totaled $0.7 million in the first quarter of 2008 and were primarily for purchases of product tooling. Total expenditures for property and equipment are expected to be between $4.0 million and $6.0 million in 2008.

Other assets, net increased $1.2 million to $2.3 million at March 31, 2008 compared to $1.1 million at December 31, 2007. Included in other assets are building deposits, cost based investments, and investments in our joint venture with Motorola, Motif. The increase in the first quarter of 2008 was primarily due to a cost-based investment and an increase in the value of our investment in Motif, offset by a dividend from Motif received during the quarter.

Accounts payable decreased $21.1 million to $43.0 million at March 31, 2008 compared to $64.1 million at December 31, 2007 due primarily to the timing of payments for inventory purchased late in the fourth quarter of 2007.

Accrued warranty costs, both short and long-term, decreased $1.2 million to $8.6 million at March 31, 2008 compared to $9.8 million at December 31, 2007. The reduction in accrued warranty costs was due primarily to a reduction in units sold this quarter, improved product quality, and a transition in our warranty model toward purchasing two year supplier warranties from our contract manufacturers. As our contract manufacturers have improved the manufacturing quality of the projectors we sell, we have begun the transition towards purchasing warranty coverage as part of the product we source.

Seasonality

Given the buying patterns of various geographies and market segments, our revenues are subject to certain elements of seasonality during various portions of the year. The first quarter of each year is typically down from the immediately preceding fourth quarter due to corporate buying trends and typical aggressive competition from our Asian competitors with March 31 fiscal year ends. In addition, we sell our products into the education and government markets that typically see seasonal peaks in the U.S. in the second and third quarter of each year. Historically, between 20% and 30% of our revenues have come from Europe and, as such, we typically experience a seasonal downturn due to the vacation season in mid-summer, which results in decreased revenues from that region in the third quarter compared to the second quarter. Conversely, we typically experience a strong resurgence of revenue from Europe in the fourth quarter.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

We reaffirm the critical accounting policies and estimates as reported in our 2007 Annual Report on Form 10-K, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 12, 2008.

Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is (1) recorded, processed, summarized and reported in a timely manner, and (2) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1A. Risk Factors

A restated description of the risk factors associated with our business is set forth below. This description includes any material changes to and supersedes the description of the risk factors associated with our business previously disclosed in Part I, Item 1A of our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007.

Because of the following factors, as well as other variables affecting our operating results, past financial performance may not be a reliable indicator of future performance, and historical trends should not be used to anticipate results or trends in future periods.

We may need to raise additional financing if our financial results do not improve.

We sustained an operating loss of $3.1 million and $27.5 million, respectively, during the quarter ended March 31, 2008 and the year ended December 31, 2007, contributing to an increase (decrease) in net working capital of $2.4 million and $(15.0) million during the respective time periods. If we continue to experience significant operating losses and reductions in net working capital, we may need to obtain additional debt or equity financing to continue current business operations. There is no guarantee that we will be able to raise additional funds on favorable terms, if at all.

Our restructuring plans may not be successful.

Over the last three years, we have implemented a series of restructuring plans with the goal of simplifying the business and returning the company to profitability. As part of the restructuring plans, we have implemented actions to reduce our cost to serve customers, improve our supply chain efficiency, reduce our product costs and reduce our operating expenses. Our goal as a result of these actions was to improve gross margins and reduce our operating expenses to a level that will allow us to achieve breakeven or better results. We have faced a number of challenges related to our restructuring plans including uncertainties associated with the impact of our actions on revenues and gross margins.

While we have made significant progress toward achieving our goals, we continue to focus on increasing revenues, increasing gross margins, and further reducing our cost structure to continue the path towards sustainable operating profitability.

If our contract manufacturers or other outsourced service providers experience any delay, disruption or quality control problems in their operations, we could lose market share and revenues, and our reputation may be harmed.

We have outsourced the manufacturing of our products to third party manufacturers. We rely on our contract manufacturers to procure components, provide spare parts in support of our warranty and customer service obligations, perform warranty repair activities on our behalf, and in some cases, subcontract engineering work. We generally commit the manufacturing of each product platform to a single contract manufacturer. In addition, going forward, we will be placing more reliance on our contract manufacturers for design activities related to our core projection products, as we move to outsource a larger percentage of our research and development work.

Our reliance on contract manufacturers exposes us to the following risks over which we may have limited control:

 

   

Unexpected increases in manufacturing and repair costs;

 

   

Interruptions in shipments if our contract manufacturer is unable to complete production;

 

   

Inability to completely control the quality of finished products;

 

   

Inability to completely control delivery schedules;

 

   

Unpredictability of manufacturing yields;

 

   

Changes in our contract manufacturer’s business models or operations;

 

   

Potential loss of differentiation in our products compared to our competitors;

 

   

Potential lack of adequate capacity to manufacture all or a part of the products we require; and

 

   

Reduced control over the availability of our products.

Our contract manufacturers are located in Asia and may be subject to disruption by natural disasters, as well as political, social or economic instability. The temporary or permanent loss of the services of any of our primary contract manufacturers could cause a significant disruption in our product supply chain and operations and delays in product shipments. In addition, we do not have long-term contracts with any of our third-party contract manufacturers and these contracts are terminable by either party on relatively short notice.

In addition, we outsourced our U.S. customer service and technical support call center to a third party provider. We rely on this third party to provide efficient and effective support to our customers and partners. To the extent our customers are not satisfied with the level of service provided by our third party provider we may lose market share and our revenues and corporate reputation could be negatively affected.

Our competitors may have greater resources and technology, and we may be unable to compete with them effectively.

The markets for our products are highly competitive and we expect aggressive price competition in our industry, especially from Asian manufacturers, to continue into the foreseeable future. Some of our current and prospective competitors have, or may have, significantly greater financial, technical, manufacturing and marketing resources than we have.

In order to compete effectively, we must continue to reduce the cost of our products, our manufacturing and other overhead costs, focus on the right channel sales models and reduce our operating expenses in order to offset declining selling prices for our products, while at the same time growing our presence in the markets we are in and driving our products into new markets. There is no assurance we will be successful with respect to these factors.

Our products face competition from alternate technologies and we may be unable to compete with them effectively.

In addition to competition within the projector industry, our products also face competition from alternate technologies such as LCD and plasma televisions and displays. Our ability to compete depends on factors within and outside our control, including the success and timing of product

Table of Contents

introductions, product performance and price, product distribution and customer support and adoption of our products. Our inability to successfully manage these factors could lead to reduced revenues or a greater chance of our customers shifting their purchases to alternate technologies.

If we are unable to manage the cost of older products or successfully introduce new products with higher gross margins, our revenues may decrease or our gross margins may decline.

The market in which we compete is subject to technological advances with continual new product releases and aggressive price competition. As a result, the price at which we can sell our products typically declines over the life of the product. The price at which a product is sold is generally referred to as the average selling price (“ASP”). In order to sell products that have a declining ASP and still maintain our gross margins, we need to continually reduce our product costs. To manage product-sourcing costs, we must collaborate with our contract manufacturers to engineer the most cost-effective design for our products. In addition, we must carefully monitor the price paid by our contract manufacturers for the significant components used in our products. We must also successfully manage our freight and inventory holding costs to reduce overall product costs. We also need to continually introduce new products with improved features and increased performance at lower costs in order to maintain our overall gross margins. Our inability to successfully manage these factors could reduce revenues or result in declining gross margins. In addition, our increased reliance on our contract manufacturers for design and development work could enhance the risks described above.

Our revenues and profitability can fluctuate from period to period and are often difficult to predict for particular periods due to factors beyond our control.

Our results of operations for any individual quarter or for the year are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected in future periods. Our operating results have historically been, and are expected to continue to be, subject to quarterly and yearly fluctuations as a result of a number of factors, including:

 

   

The introduction and market acceptance of new technologies, products and services;

 

   

Variations in product selling prices and costs and the mix of products sold;

 

   

The size and timing of customer orders, including government and education tenders, which, in turn, often depend upon the success of our customers’ business or specific products or services;

 

   

Changes in the conditions in the markets for projectors and alternative technologies;

 

   

The size and timing of capital expenditures by our customers;

 

   

Conditions in the broader markets for information technology and communications equipment;

 

   

The timing and availability of products coming from our offshore contract manufacturing partners;

 

   

Changes in the supply of components; and

 

   

Seasonality of markets such as education, government and consumer retail, which vary quarter to quarter and are influenced by outside factors such as overall consumer confidence, budgets and political party changes.

These trends and factors could harm our business, operating results and financial condition in any particular period.

Our operating expenses and portions of our costs of revenues are relatively fixed and we may have limited ability to reduce expenses quickly in response to any revenue shortfalls.

Our operating expenses, warranty costs, inbound freight and inventory handling costs are relatively fixed. Because we typically recognize a significant portion of our revenues in the last month of each quarter, we may not be able to adjust our operating expenses or other costs sufficiently to adequately respond to any revenue shortfalls. If we are unable to reduce operating expenses or other costs quickly in response to any revenue shortfall, it could negatively impact our financial results.

If we are unable to accurately predict the future needs of our customer base as it relates to sales channel inventory levels we may incur unexpected declines in revenues and gross margins.

If factors in the marketplace change that negatively impact the purchase of our products or we are not able to accurately predict the sales channel inventory needs of our larger customers, we may experience declines in our revenue and gross margins. If demand for our products declines or is not sufficient to deplete existing inventory in our sales channels this will generally have an adverse effect on future revenues.

If we do not effectively manage our sales channel inventory and product mix, we may incur costs associated with excess inventory or experience declining gross margins.

If we are unable to properly monitor, control and manage our sales channel inventory and maintain an appropriate level and mix of products with our customers within our sales channels, we may incur increased and unexpected costs associated with this inventory. We generally allow distributors, dealers and retailers to return a limited amount of our products in exchange for placing an order for other new products. In addition, under our price protection policy, subject to certain conditions which vary around the globe, if we reduce the list price of a product, we may issue a credit in an amount equal to the price reduction for each of the products held in inventory by our distributors, dealers and retailers. If these events occur, we could incur increased expenses associated with rotating and reselling product, or inventory reserves associated with writing down returned inventory, or suffer declining gross margins.

If we cannot continually develop new and innovative products and integrate them into our business, we may be unable to compete effectively in the marketplace.

Our industry is characterized by continuing improvements in technology and rapidly evolving industry standards. Consequently, short product life cycles and significant price fluctuations are common. Product transitions present challenges and risks for all companies involved in the data/video digital projector and display markets. Demand for our products and the profitability of our operations may be adversely affected if we fail to effectively manage product transitions.

Advances in product technology require continued investment in research and development and product engineering to maintain our market position. There are no guarantees that such investment will result in the right products being introduced to the market at the right time. In addition, our increased reliance on our contract manufacturers for design and development work could enhance the risks described above.

If we are unable to provide our contract manufacturers with an accurate forecast of our product requirements, we may experience delays in the manufacturing of our products and the costs of our products may increase.

We provide our contract manufacturers with a rolling forecast of demand which they use to determine their material and component requirements. Lead times for ordering materials and components vary significantly and depend on various factors, such as the specific supplier, contract terms and supply and demand for a component at a given time. Some of our components have long lead times measuring as much as 4 to 6 months from the point of order.

If our forecasts are less than our actual requirements, our contract manufacturers may be unable to manufacture sufficient products to meet actual demand in a timely manner. If our forecasts are too high, our contract manufacturers may be unable to use the components they have purchased. The cost of the components used in our products tends to decline as the product platform and technologies mature. Therefore, if our contract manufacturers are unable to promptly use components purchased on our behalf, our cost of producing products may be higher than our competitors due to an over-supply of higher-priced components. Moreover, if they are unable to use certain components, we may be required to reimburse them for any potential inventory exposure they incur within lead time.

Our failure to anticipate changes in the supply of product components or customer demand may result in excess or obsolete inventory that could adversely affect our gross margins.

Substantially all of our products are made for immediate delivery on the basis of purchase orders rather than long-term agreements. As a result, contract manufacturing activities are scheduled according to a monthly sales and production forecast rather than on the receipt of product orders or purchase commitments. From time to time in the past, we have experienced significant variations between actual orders and our forecasts.

If there were to be a sudden and significant decrease in demand for our products, or if there were a higher incidence of inventory obsolescence because of rapidly changing prices of product components, rapidly changing technology and customer requirements or an increase in the supply of products in the marketplace, we could be required to write-down our inventory and our gross margins could be adversely affected.

Our contract manufacturers may be unable to obtain critical components from suppliers, which could disrupt or delay our ability to procure our products.

We rely on a limited number of third party manufacturers for the product components used by our contract manufacturers. Reliance on suppliers raises several risks, including the possibility of defective parts, reduced control over the availability and delivery schedule for parts and the possibility of increases in component costs. Manufacturing efficiencies and our profitability can be adversely affected by each of these risks.

Certain components used in our products are now available only from single sources. Most importantly, DLP® devices are only available from Texas Instruments. The majority of our current products are based on DLP® technology making the continued availability of DLP® devices increasingly important.

Our contract manufacturers also purchase other single or limited-source components for which we have no guaranteed alternative source of supply, and an extended interruption in the supply of any of these components could adversely affect our results of operations. We have worked to improve the availability of lamps and other key components to meet our future needs, but there is no guarantee that we will secure all the supply we need to meet demand for our products.

Furthermore, many of the components used in our products are purchased from suppliers located outside the U.S. Trading policies adopted in the future by the U.S. or foreign governments could restrict the availability of components or increase the cost of obtaining components. Any significant increase in component prices or decrease in component availability could have an adverse effect on our results of operations.

Product defects resulting in a large-scale product recall or successful product liability claims against us could result in significant costs or negatively impact our reputation and could adversely affect our business results and financial condition.

As with any high tech manufacturing company, we are sometimes exposed to warranty and potential product liability claims in the normal course of business. There can be no assurance that we will not experience material product liability losses arising from such potential claims in the future and that these will not have a negative impact on our reputation and, consequently, our revenues. We generally maintain insurance against most product liability risks and record warranty provisions based on historical defect rates, but there can be no assurance that this insurance coverage and these warranty provisions will be adequate for any potential liability ultimately incurred. In addition, there is no assurance that insurance will continue to be available on terms acceptable to us. A successful claim that exceeds our available insurance coverage or a significant product recall could have a material adverse impact on our financial condition and results of operations.

SMT, our joint venture with TCL Corporation, has not been successful in implementing its business plan and is in the process of winding down its business.

SMT, our 50-50 joint venture with TCL Corporation, has not been successful in executing its business plan, primarily a result of failing to secure third party OEM customers for its products. As a result, the parent companies sought alternatives for funding ongoing operations at SMT without success. During the third quarter of 2006, SMT began the process of winding down its operations in an orderly fashion, including the sale of its assets and the negotiation of the settlement of its outstanding liabilities. At March 31, 2008, the majority of SMT employees had been laid off and only those employees working on the wind-down of the company remained. During 2006, we completely wrote off our initial investment in SMT and also recorded a charge for our share of estimated additional wind-down costs. We are uncertain how long it may take to complete the liquidation of SMT. There can be no assurance that we will not incur additional costs as SMT completes the wind-down process.

Customs or other issues involving product delivery from our contract manufacturers could prevent us from timely delivering our products to our customers.

Our business depends on the free flow of products. Due to continuing threats of terrorist attacks, U.S. Customs has increased security measures for products being imported into the U.S. In addition, increased freight volumes and work stoppages at west coast ports have, in the past, and may, in the future, cause delays in freight traffic. Each of these situations could result in delay of receipt of products from our contract manufacturers and delay fulfillment of orders to our customers. Any significant disruption in the free flow of our products may result in a reduction of revenues, an increase of in-transit inventory, or an increase in administrative and shipping costs.

A deterioration in general global economic conditions could adversely affect demand for our products.

Our business is subject to the overall health of the U.S. and global economy. Purchase decisions for our products are made by corporations, governments, educational institutions, and consumers based on their overall available budget for information technology products. Any number of factors impacting the global economy including geopolitical issues, balance of trade concerns, inflation, interest rates, currency fluctuations and consumer confidence can impact the overall spending climate, both positively and negatively, in one or more geographies for our products. Deterioration in any one or combination of these factors could change overall industry dynamics and demand for discretionary products like ours and negatively impact our results of operations.

We are subject to risks associated with exporting products outside the U.S.

To the extent we export products outside the U.S., we are subject to U.S. laws and regulations governing international trade and exports, including, but not limited to, the International Traffic in Arms Regulations, the Export Administration Regulations and trade sanctions against embargoed countries, which are administered by the Office of Foreign Assets Control within the Department of the Treasury. A determination that we have failed to comply with one or more of these export controls could result in civil and/or criminal sanctions, including the imposition of fines upon us, the denial of export privileges, and debarment from participation in U.S. government contracts. Any one or more of such sanctions could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We are exposed to risks associated with our international operations.

Revenues outside the U.S. accounted for approximately 51% of our revenues in the first quarter of 2008 and 43% of our revenues in all of 2007. The success and profitability of our international operations are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, including:

 

   

local economic and labor conditions;

 

   

political instability;

 

   

terrorist acts;

 

   

unexpected changes in the regulatory environment;

 

   

trade protection measures;

 

22


Table of Contents
   

tax laws; and

 

   

foreign currency exchange rates.

Currency exchange rate fluctuations may lead to decreases in our financial results.

To the extent that we incur costs in one currency and make our sales in another, our gross margins may be affected by changes in the exchange rates between the two currencies. Although our general policy is to hedge against these currency transaction risks on a monthly basis, given the volatility of currency exchange rates, we cannot provide assurance that we will be able to effectively manage these risks. Volatility in currency exchange rates may generate foreign exchange losses, which could have an adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

Our reliance on third-party logistics and customer service providers may result in customer dissatisfaction or increased costs.

We have outsourced all of our logistics and service repair functions worldwide. We are reliant on our third-party providers to effectively and accurately manage our inventory, service repair, and logistics functions. This reliance includes timely and accurate shipment of our products to our customers and quality service repair work. Reliance on third parties requires proper training of employees, creating and maintaining proper controls and procedures surrounding both forward and reverse logistics functions, and timely and accurate inventory reporting. In addition, reliance on third parties requires adherence to product specifications in order to ensure quality and reliability of our products. Failure of our third parties to deliver in any one of these areas could have an adverse effect on our results of operations.

In addition, we outsourced our U.S. customer service and technical support call center to a third-party provider. We rely on this third party to provide efficient and effective support to our customers and partners. To the extent our customers are not satisfied with the level of service provided by our third-party provider we may lose market share and our revenues and corporate reputation could be negatively impacted.

We may be unsuccessful in protecting our intellectual property rights.

Our ability to compete effectively against other companies in our industry depends, in part, on our ability to protect our current and future proprietary technology under patent, copyright, trademark, trade secret and other intellectual property laws. We utilize contract manufacturers in China and Taiwan, and anticipate doing increased business in these markets and elsewhere around the world including other emerging markets. These emerging markets may not have the same protections for intellectual property that are available in the U.S. We cannot make assurances that our means of protecting our intellectual property rights in the U.S. or abroad will be adequate, or that others will not develop technologies similar or superior to our trade secrets or design around our patents. In addition, management may be distracted by, and we may incur substantial costs in, attempting to protect our intellectual property.

Also, despite the steps taken by us to protect our intellectual property rights, it may be possible for unauthorized third parties to copy or reverse-engineer trade secret aspects of our products, develop similar technology independently or otherwise obtain and use information that we regard as our trade secrets, and we may be unable to successfully identify or prosecute unauthorized uses of our intellectual property rights. Further, with respect to our issued patents and patent applications, we cannot provide assurance that pending patent applications (or any future patent applications) will be issued, that the scope of any patent protection will exclude competitors or provide competitive advantages to us, that any of our patents will be held valid if subsequently challenged, or that others will not claim rights in or ownership of the patents (and patent applications) and other intellectual property rights held by us.

If we become subject to intellectual property infringement claims, we could incur significant expenses and could be prevented from selling specific products.

We are periodically subject to claims that we infringe the intellectual property rights of others. We cannot provide assurance that, if and when made, these claims will not be successful. Intellectual property litigation is, by its nature, expensive and unpredictable. Any claim of infringement could cause us to incur substantial costs defending against the claim even if the claim is invalid, and could distract management from other business. Any potential judgment against us could require substantial payment in damages and also could include an injunction or other court order that could prevent us from offering certain products.

We rely on large distributors, national retailers and other large customers for a significant portion of our revenues, and changes in price or purchasing patterns could lower our revenues or gross margins.

We sell our products through large distributors such as Ingram Micro, Tech Data and CDW and through a number of other customers and channels. We rely on our larger distributors and other large customers for a significant portion of our total revenues in any particular period. We have no minimum purchase commitments or long-term contracts with any of these customers. Our customers, including our largest customers, could decide at any time to discontinue, decrease or delay their purchases of our products. In addition, the prices that our distributors pay for our products are subject to competitive pressures and change frequently.

If any of our major customers change their purchasing patterns or refuse to pay the prices that we set for our products, our net revenues and operating results could be negatively impacted. If our large distributors and retailers increase the size of their product orders without sufficient lead-time for us to process the order, our ability to fulfill product demand could be compromised. In addition, because our accounts receivable are concentrated within our largest customers, the failure of any of them to pay on a timely basis, or at all, could reduce our cash flow or result in a significant bad debt expense.

In order to compete, we must attract, retain and motivate key employees, and our failure to do so could have an adverse effect on our results of operations.

In order to compete, we must attract, retain and motivate key employees, including those in managerial, operations, engineering, service, sales, marketing, and support positions. Hiring and retaining qualified employees in all areas of the company is critical to our business. Each of our employees is an “at will employee” and may terminate his/her employment without notice and without cause or good reason.

We depend on our officers, and, if we are not able to retain them, our business may suffer.

Due to the specialized knowledge each of our officers possess with respect to our business and our operations, the loss of service of any of our officers could adversely affect our business. We do not carry key person life insurance on our officers. Each of our officers is an “at will employee” and may terminate his/her employment without notice and without cause or good reason.

During 2007 and early 2008, we experienced several changes in our executive officers, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer. Changes at the executive officer level may cause delays in achieving our operational goals and plans as new individuals learn the business.

Our results of operations could vary as a result of the methods, estimates and judgments we use in applying our accounting policies.

The methods, estimates and judgments we use in applying our accounting policies have a significant impact on our results of operations. Such methods, estimates and judgments are, by their nature, subject to substantial risks, uncertainties and assumptions, and factors may arise that lead us to change our methods, estimates and judgments. Changes in those methods, estimates and judgments could significantly affect our results of operations. For example, we are required to

 

24


Table of Contents

make judgments or take certain tax positions in relation to income taxes in both U.S. and foreign tax jurisdictions. To the extent a taxing authority takes a position different from ours and we are unsuccessful in defending our position, the outcome of that decision could impact the amount of income tax expense recorded in the period these new positions are known.
