CHANGES IN CAPITAL On April 1, 2000, the Company issued one million shares of common stock valued at $6.7 million to SGI, in connection with the acquisition of the Cray Research business unit. EARNINGS PER SHARE Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing net income or net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share are calculated using the 8 9 weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the dilutive effect of outstanding stock options and warrants using the "treasury stock" method. RECLASSIFICATIONS Certain prior-year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current-year presentation. ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS PRELIMINARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS The information set forth in this Item 2 includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act, as amended, and is subject to the safe harbor created by those sections. Factors that realistically could cause results to differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements are set forth under "Risk Factors" beginning on page 14. The following discussion should also be read in conjunction with the Financial Statements and Notes thereto. OVERVIEW We design, develop, market and service high-performance vector processor and general-purpose parallel computer systems. We presently market two computer models, the Cray SV1 and T3E, and provide maintenance services to the Cray installed base of these and earlier models of Cray computers. We are developing upgrades to the Cray SV1 and T3E, and we are developing two new computer systems, the MTA2, based on our multithreaded architecture system, and the SV2, which will combine elements of the SV1 and T3E computers. We have begun initial work on their respective successors, the MTA3 and SV3. Our service organization supports over 600 Cray supercomputers installed at about 200 customer sites in approximately 30 countries. This installed base includes close to 200 large scale vector supercomputers and more than 50 massively parallel systems. We have approximately 900 employees and world-wide operations. Our principal facilities are located in Seattle, Washington (corporate headquarters and MTA hardware and software engineering) with 125 employees; Eagan, Minnesota (software engineering, sales and marketing), with approximately 200 employees; and Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin (hardware engineering, manufacturing and service support), with approximately 300 employees. Approximately 125 employees are located in field offices in the United States, with principal sales and service offices located in Maryland, Georgia and New Mexico. Overseas, we have approximately 150 employees 9 10 with principal offices in the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Japan, Canada and Australia. We are in the process of separating the Cray Research operations from those of Silicon Graphics and integrating them with our own. This process includes establishing separate network, communications and other infrastructure services, reconstituting the marketing and sales operations, setting up subsidiary operations for international sales and services, implementing new operational policies and procedures, and identifying and filling openings in management, administration and other areas. We have experienced net losses in each year of operations. We incurred net losses of approximately $19.8 million in 1998, $34.5 million in 1999 and $4.7 million in the first six months of 2000, compared to a net loss of approximately $13.5 million in the first six months of 1999. With net profits of $3.1 million, the quarter ended June 30, 2000 was our first profitable quarter. We recognize revenue from sales of our computer systems upon acceptance by the customer, although depending on sales contract terms, revenue may be recognized upon shipment or delayed until clarification of funding. We recognize service revenue from the maintenance of our computer systems ratably over the term of each maintenance agreement. Factors that should be considered in evaluating our business, operations and prospects and that may affect our future results and financial condition are set forth below, beginning on page 14. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 AND 2000 With the acquisition of the Cray Research business unit on April 1, 2000, period-to-period comparisons of our operating results that include periods prior to the acquisition are not indicative of results for any future period. REVENUE. We had revenue from product sales of $26.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000 compared to zero and $557,000 for the respective 1999 periods. Product revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000 consist of $20.6 million for our T3E product line and $6.1 million for our SV1 product line. The respective 1999 periods consisted of the sale of a four-processor MTA1 system. The overall increase in product revenue is due to the acquisition of the Cray product line. We expect our product revenue to vary quarterly. In particular we expect that product revenue will decline markedly in the third quarter and then improve substantially in the fourth quarter of 2000. See "Risk Factors - Our Quarterly Performance May Vary Significantly and Could Cause Our Stock Price To Be Volatile." Product revenue represented 52% of total revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000. 10 11 Service revenue were $24.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000 compared to $22,000 and $44,000 for the respective 1999 periods. Services are provided under separate maintenance contracts between the Company and its customers. These contracts generally provide for maintenance services for one year, although some are for multi-year periods, and are renewable upon expiration at the customer's election. The overall increase in service revenue is due to the acquisition of the Cray product line and related service business. We expect service revenue to decline slowly over the next year or so as older systems are withdrawn from service and then stabilize as our new systems are placed in service. Service revenue represented 48% of total revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000. OPERATING EXPENSES. Cost of product revenue was $15.2 million and $17.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000 compared to $1.6 million and $4.6 million for the respective 1999 periods. Cost of product revenue for 1999 consisted of manufacturing costs and inventory adjustments relating to the MTA product line. Cost of product revenue represented 57% of product revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000. Cost of service revenue was $12.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000, after offset in part by $4.3 million of warranty reserves, compared to $21,000 and $51,000 for the respective 1999 periods. Cost of service revenue represented 51% of product revenue for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000. Research and development expenses reflect our costs associated with the enhancements to the SV1 AND T3E systems and the development of the MTA and SV2 systems, including related software development, and cover personnel expenses, allocated overhead and operating expenses, software, materials, and engineering expenses, including payments to third parties, offset in part by governmental development funding. Research and development expenses were $13.9 million and $18.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000 compared to $3.6 million and $6.6 million for respective 1999 periods. Increases in research and development expenses primarily will depend on increases in engineering personnel, principally software engineers. Over time, with receipt of increased revenue from products currently under development, we would expect research and development expenses to decrease as a percentage of overall revenue. Research and development expenses represented 27% and 36% of total revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000. Marketing and sales expenses were $2.8 million and $3.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000 compared to $545,000 and $1.2 million for respective 1999 periods. We expect marketing and sales expenses to increase over the rest of the year as we augment our sales force. Marketing and sales expenses represented 5% and 7% of total revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000. General and administrative expenses were $1.9 million and $3.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000 compared to $638,000 and $1.1 million for the respective 1999 period. General and administrative expenses represented 4% and 6% of total revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000. General and administrative expenses are expected to increase as we complete our management team. OTHER EXPENSE. Interest income was $281,000 and $601,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000 compared to $50,000 and $77,000 for the respective 1999 periods, due to 11 12 higher average cash balances from the financings completed in 2000. Interest expense was $66,000 and $126,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000 compared to $29,000 and $87,000 for the respective 1999 periods. The results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000 include amortization of acquisition related expenses of $1.7 million. TAXES. We made no provision for federal income taxes as we have continued to incur net operating losses. PREFERRED STOCK. The dividends for the first half of 1999 were accrued on our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, all of which was converted to common stock in the second quarter of 1999. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Cash and cash equivalents totaled $7.7 million at June 30, 2000 and $10.1 million at December 31, 1999. Restricted cash balances, which serve as collateral for capital equipment loans and leases, totaled $1 million at June 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999. Accounts receivable were $32.5 million at June 30, 2000 and $641,000 at year end. Net cash used in operating activities was $11.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2000 compared to $12.4 million used in the six months ended June 30, 1999. For the six months ended June 30, 2000, net operating cash flows were primarily attributed to an increase in accounts receivable from product sales and operating expenses. For the six months ended June 30, 1999, net operating cash flows were primarily attributable to net losses, personnel costs and costs of inventory. Net cash spent on investing activities was $29.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2000, compared to $710,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1999, and for the 2000 period consisted primarily of $26.7 million of cash spent on the Cray acquisition, $1.1 million of cash spent on acquisition related charges, and $1.5 million spent on additional property, plant and equipment used primarily for computers and electronic test equipment, computer software and furniture and fixtures for both periods. Net cash provided by financing activities was $38.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2000 compared to $35.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999. For the six months ended June 30, 2000, we raised $25.2 million through the sale of common stock and received $8.9 million in proceeds from warrant exercises. We also obtained a line of credit for up to $10 million. For the six months ended June 30, 1999 financing activities consisted primarily of the sale of common stock through private placements. As part of the acquisition of the Cray Research business unit, we paid SGI $15 million and issued a nine-month non-interest bearing promissory note of $35.2 million of which we paid $11.7 million on June 30, 2000. We believe our present cash resources and our anticipated 12 13 revenue from product sales and maintenance services will be sufficient to finance our planned operations for the remainder of the year, including payment of the SGI note and other acquisition costs. Our operational expenses will consist primarily of personnel costs, cost of inventory and third-party engineering expenses. Nevertheless, we may raise additional equity and/or debt capital in the next twelve months to enhance our financial position for future operations. In addition, if anticipated sales of Cray products were delayed or if we were not successful in maintaining the level of maintenance revenue, we may need additional capital earlier than planned. Financings may not be available to us when needed or, if available, may not be available on satisfactory terms or may be dilutive to our shareholders. See "Risk Factors--We May Engage in Additional Financings Which May Be Dilutive to Existing Shareholders." 13 14 RISK FACTORS The following factors should be considered in evaluating our business, operations and prospects and may affect our future results and financial condition. A FAILURE TO INTEGRATE THE CRAY RESEARCH BUSINESS UNIT COULD COMPROMISE OUR GROWTH STRATEGY AND ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR BUSINESS. With the acquisition of the Cray Research business unit from Silicon Graphics, Inc. ("SGI"), the size and geographic dispersion of our workforce and operations increased significantly. These increases place a significant strain on our management, financial and other resources. We need to attract additional management talent, implement new financial, budgeting and management information systems, retain, motivate and effectively manage our employees, enhance internal control systems, increase our sales force, renovate existing and find new facilities and successfully separate the Cray operations from those of SGI and combine them with our existing operations. We may experience difficulties in integrating Cray's personnel, operations and technologies; and managing this sudden growth and these issues could divert our management's time and resources. Our success will depend on our management's ability to make these changes and to manage our operations effectively over the long term. LACK OF CUSTOMER ORDERS FOR OUR EXISTING SV1 AND T3E PRODUCTS AND OUR INABILITY TO SELL OUR PRODUCTS AT EXPECTED PRICES WOULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR PROSPECTS. We will depend on sales of our current products, the Cray SV1 and T3E, including enhancements to these products, for significant product revenues in 2000 and 2001. To obtain these sales, we need to reconstitute our marketing and service organization and assure our customers of product performance and our ability to service these products. Most of our potential customers already own or lease very high-performance computer systems. Some of our competitors may offer trade-in allowances or substantial discounts to potential customers, and we may not be able to match these sales incentives. We may be required to provide discounts to make sales or to finance the leasing of our products, which would result in a deferral of our receipt of cash for such systems. These developments would limit our revenues and resources and would adversely affect our profitability and operations. FAILURE TO OBTAIN RENEWAL OF SERVICE CONTRACTS WOULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR REVENUES AND EARNINGS. High-performance computer systems are typically sold with maintenance service contracts. These contracts generally are for annual periods, although some are for multi-year periods. We currently are performing most of the services under the existing SGI maintenance contracts as a sub-contractor to SGI. As these contracts expire, we need to convince customers to execute new maintenance service contracts with us. We anticipate that the service revenues will constitute a significant amount of our total revenues. If customers decommissioned our installed computers and did not renew their maintenance service contracts with us, our revenue and earnings would be adversely affected. OUR QUARTERLY PERFORMANCE MAY VARY SIGNIFICANTLY AND COULD CAUSE OUR STOCK PRICE TO BE VOLATILE. One or a few system sales may account for a substantial percentage of our quarterly and annual revenue. This is due to the high average sales price of our products, particularly the T3E system and the expected high average sales 14 15 prices for our MTA2 and SV2 systems, and the timing of purchase orders and product acceptances. Because a number of our prospective customers receive funding from the U.S. or foreign governments, the timing of orders from such customers may be subject to the appropriation and funding schedules of the relevant government agencies. The timing of orders and shipments also could be affected by other events outside our control, such as: - changes in levels of customer capital spending; - the introduction or announcement of competitive products; - the availability of components; - timing of the receipt of necessary export licenses; or - currency fluctuations and international conflicts or economic crises. Because of these factors, revenue, net income or loss and cash flow are likely to fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter. In particular we expect that product revenue will decline markedly in the third quarter and then improve substantially in the fourth quarter of 2000. THE COST OF SERVICE OF THE T90 INSTALLED BASE WILL ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR EARNINGS. Certain components in the T90 vector computers sold by Cray prior to our acquisition have an unusually high failure rate. The cost of servicing the T90 computers exceeds the related service revenues. We are continuing to take action that commenced prior to the acquisition to address this problem, and have on our balance sheets a reserve to account for anticipated losses on the T90 maintenance service contracts. LACK OF GOVERNMENT SUPPORT FOR SUPERCOMPUTER SYSTEMS WOULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR BUSINESS AND INCREASE OUR CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS. We have targeted U.S. and foreign government agencies and research laboratories as important sales prospects for all of our products. In addition, a few of these agencies fund a portion of our development efforts. The U.S. government historically has facilitated the development of, and has constituted a market for, new and enhanced very high- performance computer systems. The failure of U.S. and foreign government agencies to purchase additional very high-performance computer systems or to continue to fund these development efforts, due to lack of funding, change of priorities or for any other reason, would materially and adversely affect our results of operations and increase our need for capital. PROPOSALS AND PURCHASES BASED ON THEORETICAL PEAK PERFORMANCE WILL ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR PROSPECTS. Our high-performance systems are designed to provide high actual sustained performance on difficult computational problems. Many of our competitors offer systems with higher theoretical peak performance numbers, although their actual sustained performance frequently is a small fraction of their theoretical peak performance. Nevertheless, many requests for proposals, primarily from governmental agencies in the U.S. and elsewhere, have criteria based on theoretical peak performance. Until these criteria are changed, we may be foreclosed from bidding or proposing our systems, which would adversely affect our revenue potential. 15 16 OUR UNCERTAIN PROSPECTS FOR EARNINGS COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT AN INVESTMENT IN US. While we have had a substantial increase in revenues with the acquisition of the Cray business operations, whether we will continue to achieve earnings will depend upon a number of factors, including: - our ability to integrate the operations of the former Cray business unit; - our ability to market and sell our existing products, the SV1 and T3E, and complete the development of the MTA2 and SV2 systems; - the level of revenue in any given period; - the cost of servicing the T90 installed base; - the terms and conditions of sale or lease for our products; and - our expense levels and manufacturing costs. OUR INABILITY TO OVERCOME THE TECHNICAL CHALLENGES OF COMPLETING THE DEVELOPMENT OF OUR SYSTEMS COULD CAUSE OUR BUSINESS TO FAIL. We are involved in significant development efforts, including system upgrades to our existing SV1 and T3E products in order to add capabilities and features to extend their product lives. Our success over the next few years depends upon completing the development of the MTA2 and the SV2 systems. And we have commenced initial work on development of the MTA3 and SV3 systems. These development efforts are lengthy and technically challenging processes, and require a significant investment of capital, engineering and other resources. Delays in completing the design of the hardware components or software of these systems or in integrating the full systems could materially and adversely affect our business and results of operations. We are dependent on our vendors to manufacture components for our systems, and few companies can meet our design requirements. Their inability to manufacture our components to our designs will adversely affect the completion of these products. From time to time during the development process we have had, and in the future we may have, to redesign certain components because of previously unforeseen design flaws. We also may find certain flaws, or "bugs", in our system software which require correction. Redesign work may be costly and cause delays in the development of these systems, and could affect adversely their success as commercial products. THE ABSENCE OF THIRD-PARTY APPLICATION SOFTWARE COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR ABILITY TO MAKE COMMERCIAL SALES OF OUR NEW SYSTEMS. In order to make sales in the automotive, aerospace, chemistry and other engineering and commercial markets, we must be able to attract independent software vendors to port their software application programs so that they will run on our systems. The relatively low volume of supercomputer sales may make it difficult for us to attract these 16 17 vendors. We also plan to modify and rewrite third-party software applications to run on these systems ourselves to facilitate the expansion of our potential markets. There can be no assurance that we will be able to induce independent software vendors to rewrite their applications, or that we will successfully rewrite third-party applications for use on our systems. U.S. EXPORT CONTROLS COULD HINDER OUR ABILITY TO MAKE SALES TO FOREIGN CUSTOMERS AND OUR FUTURE PROSPECTS. The U.S. government regulates the export of high-performance computer systems such as our products. We currently are awaiting approval for the export of one system. Delay or denial in the granting of any required licenses could adversely affect our ability to make sales to certain foreign customers, thereby eliminating an important source of potential revenue. OUR RELIANCE ON THIRD-PARTY SUPPLIERS POSES SIGNIFICANT RISKS TO OUR BUSINESS AND PROSPECTS. We subcontract the manufacture of substantially all of our hardware components for all of our products, including integrated circuits, printed circuit boards, flex circuits and power supplies, on a sole or limited source basis to third-party suppliers. We are exposed to substantial risks because of our reliance on these and other limited or sole source suppliers. For example: - if a reduction or interruption of supply of our components occurred, it could take us a considerable period of time to identify and qualify alternative suppliers to redesign our products as necessary and to recommence manufacture of the redesigned components; - if we were ever unable to locate a supplier for a component, we would be unable to assemble and deliver our products; - one or more suppliers may make strategic changes in their product lines, which may result in the delay or suspension of manufacture of our components or systems; and - some of our key suppliers are small companies with limited financial and other resources, and consequently may be more likely to experience financial difficulties than larger, well- established companies. FAILURE TO OBTAIN CREDIT FACILITIES MAY RESTRICT OUR OPERATIONS. We are negotiating for credit facilities, such as bank lines of credit, vendor credit and capitalized equipment lease lines. The absence of a consistent record of revenues and earnings makes obtaining such facilities more difficult; if we obtain such facilities, they may have high interest rates, contain restrictions on our operations and require security. Failure to obtain such credit facilities may limit our planned operations and our ability to acquire needed infrastructure and other capital items and would adversely affect our cash reserves and increase our need for capital. A SUBSTANTIAL NUMBER OF OUR SHARES ARE ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE AND COULD DEPRESS MARKET PRICES OF OUR STOCK AND COULD HINDER OUR ABILITY TO OBTAIN ADDITIONAL FINANCING. Sale of a substantial number of our shares of common stock in the public market or the prospect of such sales could materially 17 18 and adversely affect the market price of our common stock. As of June 30, 2000, we had outstanding: - 33,409,206 shares of common stock; - warrants to purchase 14,836,167 shares of common stock; - 8% Convertible Promissory Notes in the principal amount of $494,291, convertible at $5.00 per share into 98,858 shares of common stock; and - stock options to purchase an aggregate of 7,461,102 shares of common stock, of which 2,093,479 options were then exercisable. Almost all of our outstanding shares of common stock may be sold without substantial restrictions. All of the shares purchased under the option plans are available for sale in the public market, subject in some cases to volume and other limitations. Sales in the public market of substantial amounts of our common stock, including sales of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the warrants, could depress prevailing market prices for the common stock. Even the perception that such sales could occur may impact market prices. In addition, the existence of outstanding warrants and options may prove to be a hindrance to our future equity financings. Further, the holders of the warrants and options may exercise them at a time when we would otherwise be able to obtain additional equity capital on terms more favorable to us. Such factors could materially and adversely affect our ability to meet our capital needs. WE MAY ENGAGE IN ADDITIONAL FINANCINGS WHICH MAY BE DILUTIVE TO EXISTING SHAREHOLDERS. We believe our present cash resources and revenue from anticipated sales of products and service revenues are sufficient to finance our planned operations for the next twelve months. Nevertheless, we may raise additional equity and/or debt capital in the next twelve months to enhance our financial position for future operations. In addition, if we were not able to complete the enhancements to the SV1 and T3E systems and the development of the MTA2 and SV2 systems, we may need additional capital earlier than planned. Financings may not be available to us when needed or, if available, may not be available on satisfactory terms or may be dilutive to our shareholders. WE MAY BE UNABLE TO ATTRACT, RETAIN AND MOTIVATE KEY PERSONNEL, AND AS A RESULT WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO GROW AS WE EXPECT OR EFFECTIVELY IMPLEMENT OUR BUSINESS PLAN. Our success also depends in large part upon our ability to attract, retain and motivate highly skilled management, technical and marketing and sales personnel, particularly in light of the acquisition of the Cray business unit. Competition for highly skilled management, technical, marketing and sales personnel is intense, and we may not be successful in attracting and retaining such personnel. We have no employment contracts with any of our employees. 18 19 OUR STOCK PRICE MAY BE VOLATILE. The trading price of our common stock is subject to significant fluctuations in response to, among other factors: - changes in analysts' estimates; - our future capital raising activities; - announcements of technological innovations by us or our competitors; and - general conditions in the high-performance computer industry. In addition, the stock market is subject to price and volume fluctuations that particularly affect the market prices for small capitalization, high technology companies like us. WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO KEEP UP WITH RAPID TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGE. Our market is characterized by rapidly changing technology, accelerated product obsolescence and continuously evolving industry standards. Our success will depend upon our ability to enhance our current products, the SV1 and T3E, to complete development of the MTA2 and the SV2 systems and to develop MTA3 and SV3 systems in the future. We will need to introduce new products and features in a timely manner to meet evolving customer requirements. We may not succeed in these efforts. Our business and results of operations will be materially and adversely affected if we incur delays in developing our products or if such products do not gain broad market acceptance. In addition, products or technologies developed by others may render our products or technologies noncompetitive or obsolete. WE MAY BE UNABLE TO COMPETE SUCCESSFULLY IN THE HIGH- PERFORMANCE COMPUTER MARKET. The performance of our products may not be competitive with the computer systems offered by our competitors, and we may not compete successfully over time against new entrants or innovative competitors at the lower end of the market. Furthermore, periodic announcements by our competitors of new high-performance computer systems and price adjustments may materially and adversely affect customer demand for our products. Our competitors are established companies that are well known in the high-performance computer market, including IBM, Sun Microsystems, Compaq Computer, Hewlett-Packard and Silicon Graphics in the U.S. and Japanese companies such as NEC Corporation, Fujitsu and Hitachi. Each of these competitors has broader product lines and substantially greater research, engineering, manufacturing, marketing and financial resources than we do. 19 20 In addition we compete with new entrants capitalizing on developments in parallel processing and increased computer performance through networking and clustering systems. To date, these products have been limited in applicability and scalability and can be difficult to program. A breakthrough in architecture or software technology could make parallel systems more attractive to potential customers. Such a breakthrough would materially and adversely affect our ability to sell our products and the receipt of revenue. MODIFICATION OR ELIMINATION OF CURRENT TARIFFS UNDER THE ANTIDUMPING LAWS WOULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR COMPETITIVE POSITION IN THE UNITED STATES. Significant duties are imposed on the importation in the U.S. of vector high-performance computer systems of NEC, Fujitsu and Hitachi under the U.S. antidumping laws. These duties are subject to review in the second half of 2002. If these duties were modified or eliminated, we may face significantly increased competition in the U.S. high-performance computer market from these companies. WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO PROTECT OUR PROPRIETARY INFORMATION AND RIGHTS ADEQUATELY. We rely on a combination of patent, copyright and trade secret protection, non-disclosure agreements and licensing arrangements to establish, protect and enforce our proprietary information and rights. We have a number of patent applications pending and plan to file additional patent applications. There can be no assurance, however, that patents will be issued from the pending applications or that any issued patents will protect adequately those aspects of our technology to which such patents will relate. Despite our efforts to safeguard and maintain our proprietary rights, we cannot be certain that we will succeed in doing so or that our competitors will not independently develop or patent technologies that are substantially equivalent or superior to our technologies. Although we are not a party to any present litigation regarding proprietary rights, third parties may assert intellectual property claims against us in the future. Such claims, if proved, could materially and adversely affect our business and results of operations. In addition, even meritless claims would require management attention and would cause us to incur significant expense to defend. The laws of certain countries do not protect intellectual property rights to the same extent or in the same manner as do the laws of the United States. Although we continue to implement protective measures and intend to defend our proprietary rights vigorously, these efforts may not be successful. OUR ABILITY TO BUILD CERTAIN PRODUCTS IS LIMITED BY OUR AGREEMENT WITH SGI, WHICH MAY LIMIT OUR ABILITY TO COMPETE WITH SGI AND OTHER COMPANIES. The Technology Agreement pursuant to which we acquired and licensed patent, know-how and other intellectual property rights from SGI contains restrictions on our ability to develop certain products, including specified successors to the T3E system, and restrictions on the use of other technology, such as SGI's IRIX operating system in the SV2. 20 21 IT MAY BECOME MORE DIFFICULT TO SELL OUR STOCK IN THE PUBLIC MARKET. Our common stock is quoted on the Nasdaq National Market. In order to remain listed on this market, the Company must meet Nasdaq's listing maintenance standards. If the bid price of our common stock falls below $5.00 for an extended period, or we are unable to continue to meet Nasdaq's standards for any other reason, our common stock could be delisted from the Nasdaq National Market. If the common stock were delisted, we likely would seek to list the common stock on the Nasdaq SmallCap Market or for quotation on the American Stock Exchange or a regional stock exchange. However, listing or quotation on these markets or exchanges could reduce the liquidity for our common stock. If the common stock were not listed or quoted on another market or exchange, trading of the common stock would be conducted in the over-the-counter market on an electronic bulletin board established for unlisted securities or in what are commonly referred to as the "pink sheets." As a result, an investor would find it more difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate quotations for the price of, the common stock. In addition, a delisting from the Nasdaq National Market and failure to obtain listing or quotation on such other market or exchange would subject our securities to so-called "penny stock" rules that impose additional sales practice and market-making requirements on broker-dealers who sell and/or make a market in such securities. Consequently, removal from the Nasdaq National Market and failure to obtain listing or quotation on another market or exchange could affect the ability or willingness of broker-dealers to sell and/or make a market in the common stock and the ability of purchasers of the common stock to sell their securities in the secondary market. In addition, if the market price of the common stock falls to below $5.00 per share, we may become subject to certain penny stock rules even if our common stock is still quoted on the Nasdaq National Market. While such penny stock rules should not affect the quotation of our common stock on the Nasdaq National Market, such rules may further limit the market liquidity of the common stock and the ability of investors to sell the common stock in the secondary market. PROVISIONS IN OUR AGREEMENT WITH SILICON GRAPHICS MAKE IT MORE DIFFICULT FOR SPECIFIED COMPANIES TO ACQUIRE US. The Asset Purchase Agreement with SGI pursuant to which we purchased the Cray Research business assets contains provisions restricting our ability to transfer the Cray Research business assets. Sales of these assets to Hewlett-Packard, Sun Microsystems, IBM, Compaq Computer, NEC or Gores Technology Group, or their affiliates, are prohibited until the earlier of March 31, 2003 or if SGI were sold. In addition, we must give SGI a right of first refusal for any sale of these assets to other purchasers for such period or earlier, if over a period of four fiscal quarters the revenue from product sales of Cray products is less than 50% of our total revenue. PROVISIONS OF OUR ARTICLES AND BYLAWS COULD MAKE A PROPOSED ACQUISITION THAT IS NOT APPROVED BY OUR MANAGEMENT MORE DIFFICULT. Provisions of our Restated Articles of Incorporation and Restated Bylaws could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire us. These provisions could limit the price that investors might be willing to pay in the future for our common stock. For example, our Articles and Bylaws provide for: - a staggered Board of Directors, so that only three of nine directors are elected each year; 21 22 - removal of a director only for cause and only upon the affirmative vote of not less than two-thirds of the shares entitled to vote to elect directors; - the issuance of preferred stock, without shareholder approval, with rights senior to those of the common stock; - no cumulative voting of shares; - calling a special meeting of the shareholders only upon demand by the holders of not less than 30% of the shares entitled to vote at such a meeting; - amendments to the Restated Articles of Incorporation require the affirmative vote of not less than two-thirds of the outstanding shares entitled to vote on the amendment, unless the amendment was approved by a majority of "continuing directors" (as that term is defined in our Articles); - special voting requirements for mergers and other business combinations, unless the proposed transaction was approved by a majority of continuing directors; - special procedures must be followed in order to bring matters before our shareholders at our annual shareholders' meeting; and - special procedures must be followed in order for nominating members for election to the Board of Directors. WE DO NOT ANTICIPATE DECLARING ANY DIVIDENDS. We have never paid any dividends on our common stock and we intend to continue our policy of retaining any earnings to finance the development and expansion of our business. ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK For the quarter ended June 30, 2000, substantially all of our cash equivalents and marketable securities are held in money market funds or commercial paper of less than 90 days that is held to maturity. Accordingly, we believe that the market risk arising from our holdings of these financial instruments is minimal. All of our current product contract payments are payable in U.S. dollars, and consequently we do not have any foreign currency exchange risks for product sales. Our foreign maintenance contracts are paid in local currencies and provide a natural hedge against local expenses. To the extent that we wish to repatriate any of these funds to the United States, however, we are subject to foreign exchange losses. We do not hold any derivative instruments and have not engaged in hedging transactions. 22 23 PART II. OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 2. CHANGES IN SECURITIES On April 1, 2000, we issued one million shares of our common stock to SGI in partial consideration for SGI's Cray Research business unit operations. This transaction did not involve a public offering and was exempt from registration under the Securities Act pursuant to Sections 4(2) and 4(6) thereof. ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS The Annual Meeting of Shareholders was held on May 31, 2000. At the meeting the following actions occurred: 1.
