CYLINK CORP. REPORTS RESULTS FOR 3RD QUARTER,
RESTATES RESULTS FOR PRIOR PERIODS
SUNNYVALE, CA., December 16, 1998--Cylink Corporation (NASDAQ: CYLK,
CYLKE) today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September
27, 1998, and restated results for both the first and second quarters of the
current fiscal year as well as for 1997.
On November 5, 1998, the company publicly announced that it and its
independent accountants had initiated a review of revenue recognition practices
which would result in a restatement of previously issued first and second
quarter 1998 results and that all three quarters of 1998 were expected to show
substantial operating losses. During the review, certain facts became known
indicating errors had been made in the application of revenue recognition
policies which also impacted the fourth quarter of 1997, and as a result, 1997
full-year results have been restated.
For the third quarter of 1998, the company reported a net loss of $5.7
million, or $.20 per share (basic and diluted) on revenues totaling $12.1
million. In the same quarter a year ago, the company's net loss was $62.9
million, or $2.37 per share (basic and diluted), on revenues of $13.1 million.
Results for the third quarter a year ago included net income from discontinued
operations of $.8 million, or $.03 per share (basic and diluted) and a pretax,
non-recurring purchased in-process technology charge of $63.9 million, or $2.41
per share (basic and diluted), for certain costs associated with the acquisition
of Algorithmic Research.

recognition policies during that period. The company's restated results for the

Cylink Corp. Reports Earnings Results Page 3
The company has recently repriced employee stock options with reset
vesting periods to ensure Cylink's ability to retain essential employee and
managerial talent. The timing of the repricing was influenced by the retroactive
deadline imposed by a recent Financial Standards Accounting Board (FASB)
proposal. The proposal could require a significant change to operations had
options been repriced after the December 15, 1998 deadline. The company repriced
employee options for approximately two million shares, and cancelled options
covering approximately 1.25 million shares held by prior members of the senior
management team. Neither William P. Crowell, Cylink's president and acting chief
executive officer, nor Roger A. Barnes, the company's new chief financial
officer, are participating in the repricing, but Crowell has received additional
new options to reflect expanded responsibilities when the board appointed him
president and acting chief executing officer.
In a statement, Crowell said, "In the past six weeks the company has
completed realignment of organizational responsibilities, made corresponding
adjustments in management, and put additional focus on customer service. In
addition, I have met with virtually all employees at our Sunnyvale, Tel Aviv,
U.K., New Jersey and Washington D.C. facilities to review past issues and to
elicit their support of our future plans. Product plan reviews have also been
completed and budgets to support new activities are now being developed. We are
actively engaged with customers in reviewing their major needs for security
products in the future."
"These review have demonstrated that Cylink continues to have a loyal
customer base that is the envy of the security industry, excellent and motivated
employees, excellent products--with more in development, and a solid balance
sheet. We believe that these strengths will enable the new management team to
move forward in realizing the potential of the company, "Crowell added.
