Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

Note 1 - Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of DVS include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. The statements have been prepared by the Company in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB and Article 10 of Regulation S-X.

Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report and Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2000.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited financial statements and include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the interim periods presented. Operating results for the three-month period ended June 30, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any other interim period or the full fiscal year ending March 31, 2001. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant estimates include impairment write-downs of fixed assets and intangibles and the level of accounts receivable and inventory reserves. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Note 2 - Net Income (Loss) Per Share

Basic net loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the periods. Diluted net loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of common and potentially dilutive common shares during the periods, except those that are anti-dilutive. Basic and diluted net loss per share is calculated as follows (in thousands):

Basic net income/(loss) per share...........     $0.11     $(0.31)
Diluted net income/(loss) per share.........     $0.09     $(0.31)

At June 30, 2000 and 1999 1,143,645 and 1,143,645 shares of common stock in escrow were excluded from the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share. At June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively, 18,450,000 and 18,450,000 of Class A and B warrants were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because their effect is anti-dilutive. At June 30, 2000 and 1999 respectively 65,928 and 207,454 options were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because their effect was anti-dilutive.

Note 3 - Comprehensive Income

The Company has adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income," as of the first quarter of fiscal year ended March 31, 2000 ("Fiscal 2000").

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

This document contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the "safe-harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Act of 1995 that involve risks and uncertainties, including, without limitation, statements with respect to the Company's strategy, proposed sales of the Company's products, markets, and the development of the Company's products. The Company's actual results may differ materially from those described in these forward-looking statements due to a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the uncertainty of market acceptance of DVD-ROM drives, DVD loaders, DVD players, Video Engines and other products, planned growth of the Company's operations, dependence on a limited number of suppliers of certain components used in the Company's operations, risks associated with rapid technological change and obsolescence and product development, conducting business in foreign countries, such as China and South Korea, the competitive market for the Company's products, and other risk factors described in the Form 10-KSB, or in other documents the Company files from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission. A significant portion of the Company's revenue and net income is derived from international sales, particularly from customers based in Asia. Fluctuation of the U.S. dollar against foreign currencies, charges in local regulatory or economic condition could adversely affect operating results. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included herein the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2000 and the condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included herein for the three months ended June 30, 2000.

In the quarter ended June 30, 2000, the Company has successfully continued to execute its strategy to focus on products based on its DVD intellectual property portfolio, improving the performance of its main product lines with reduced overhead. These efforts have resulted in substantial improvements compared with the same period a year ago, as highlighted in the table below:

                            Three Months Ended
                                 June 30,

                           ---------   --------
Revenues ............       $22,755     $6,355
Gross Profit ........         2,575        321
Net Profit (loss) ...           486     (1,380)

In dollar terms, revenues for the quarter ended June 30, 2000 were more than 3.5 times those for the same quarter one year ago; while gross profit was about 8 times that of the last year. The net profit of $486 thousand also compared favorably with the $1.38 million losses in the same quarter of the previous year. More detailed discussion and comparison of the results is presented below.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2000

Consolidated Revenue                   $22,755    $6,355     258%

Total revenues increased by $16.4 million, or 258%, for the three months ended June 30, 2000, compared with the three months ended June 30, 1999. International revenues represented approximately 94% of the current quarter (primarily sales of DVD loaders) as compared to essentially 80% in the like quarter a year ago. About 3.7% of the revenues were generated from the sales of equipment and parts to selected customers. Such sales may not occur on a regular basis.

      as a percentage of revenue           11.3%     5.1%

Gross margin increased by $2.25 million, or 700%, from $321 thousand for the same quarter of 1999. The gross margin as a percentage of total revenue also increased significantly, due to the increasing procurement volumes, coupled with effective value engineering over the past year, and sales of production and testing equipment.

In order to remain competitive on the market, we expect the margin to be maintained at about 10% (+/- 1 or 2%) for the remainder of the fiscal year. Engineering for cost improvements has been on going, to offset the impact of lowering prices.

In terms of percentage of revenue, these expenses were also substantially reduced. For the near term the Company intends to maintain approximately the same level of spending on sales and marketing in terms of the percentage of revenue. As the Company's expected growth continues the sales and marketing expenses in dollar terms are expected to increase.

      as a percentage of revenue          4.2%     8.3%

General and administrative expenses consist of administrative salaries and benefits, insurance, facility, legal, accounting, investor relations and other business support costs. In terms of percentage of revenue, the G&A expenses of this quarter were about half of the same period a year ago. However, in dollar terms, they were up by $428 thousands. The Company believes that the level of these expenses will be lowered in the next quarter and remain at about that same level through fiscal year 2001.

Liquidity And Capital Resources

Working capital at June 30, 2000 was $155,000 compared to a working capital deficit of $1.2 million at June 30, 1999. The combination of credit lines opened in the past nine months, attaining profitability, and well managed account receivable and inventory levels have made this change possible, while increasing sales levels by $16 million to 3.5 times in the period.

Net cash used in operating activities was $1.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2000 as compared to $0.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 1999. The principal use of cash was the build up of prepaids and other assets in the amount of $2.7 million, reduction of accounts payable in the amount of $1.1 million and increase in accounts receivable of $0.5 million. This total use of $4.9 million was offset in part net income plus depreciation and amortization totaling $0.9 million, reduction in inventories of $1.3 million and other increases in payables of $0.7 million. Substantially all of the net cash used in operating activities in the three months ended June 30, 1999 represented the net loss of $1.4 million adjusted for non-cash charges for depreciation and amortization of $0.3 million and acquired in-process research and development of $0.06 million and net cash provided by decrease in inventories of $3.8 million, and decrease in prepaids and other assets of $0.2 million, and net cash used to fund increased in accounts receivable of $1.3 millions, decrease in accounts payable of $1 million, and accrued liabilities of $1.6 million.

Net cash used in investing activities was $0.35 and $0.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 respectively. All of the cash used in investing activities consisted of the acquisition of property and equipment.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $0.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2000. Consisting of the issuance of notes payable totaling $0.4 million and line of credit borrowings of $0.2 million. Activity in the prior year was minimal.

Year 2000 Compliance

In prior years, we implemented a Year 2000 project to address the issue of computer software and hardware correctly processing dates through and beyond the Year 2000. The goal of this project was to ensure that all computer software and hardware that we use or rely upon is retired, replaced or made Year 2000 compliant before December 31, 1999. For example, the accounting system that we used were found to have some Y2K related problems under certain conditions. We have successfully switched to a new system which is Year 2000 Compliant.

To date, we have not experienced any other Year 2000 related operational issues and are not aware of any material potential problems that may arise as a result of Year 2000 issues either from our own internal systems or from the products and services of third parties upon which we rely. However, we cannot provide any assurance that no Y2K issue will affect our operations or those of the third parties in the future.

The costs of our Year 2000 readiness program is estimated to be approximately $100,000, which were charged to expense as incurred, and did not include potential costs related to any customers or other claims or the cost of internal software or hardware replaced in the normal course of business. Any remaining expenses related to remediation efforts will be charged to expenses as incurred. We will continue to monitor our business-critical computer applications and those of our suppliers and vendors throughout the Year 2000 to ensure that any latent Year 2000 problems that may arise are promptly addressed.

Outlook

The backlog at June 30, 2000 was approximately $15 million, with about 75% backed by letters of credit. As the peak season approaches, the backlog has increased recently. The outlook for the second quarter ending September 30, 2000 is continued profitability with revenues in excess of $26 million. Our forecast for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2001 remains at revenue in excess of $100 million with solid operating and net income levels.


Part II. Other Information

Except as listed below, all information required by items in Part II is omitted because the items are inapplicable or the answer is negative.

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

On May 8, 2000, Yasuo Kamatani and LaserDynamics Inc. (collectively "LDI") sued Digital Video Systems, Inc. ("DVS") and Konka (U.S.A.) Ltd. ("Konka") in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas (Yasuo Kamatani and LaserDynamics Inc. v. Konka (U.S.A.) Ltd. and Digital Video Systems, Inc., Civil Action No. H-00-0791). LDI alleges that DVS and Konka are infringing U.S. Patent Nos. 5,587,981 and 5,959,280. Both patents relate to DVD players. On July 21, 2000, DVS filed its answer and counterclaims in response to LDI's first amended complaint. DVS contests the validity of both patents and LDI's infringement allegations. The parties are exploring the possibility of resolving the case.

From time to time, we may be involved in legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business, such as reported in the Form 10-KSB which the Company filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 31, 2000.

While we have accrued certain amounts for the estimated legal costs associated with defending these matters, there can be no assurance that these cases and other third party assertions will be resolved without costly litigation, in a manner that is not adverse to our financial position, results of operations or cash flows or without requiring royalty payments in the future which may adversely impact gross margins. No estimate can be made of the possible loss or possible range of loss associated with the resolution of these contingencies.
