NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 1999 (UNAUDITED)
NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q 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. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting
only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair
presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six months
ended June 30, 1999, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be
expected for the year ending December 31, 1999. For further information,
reference is made to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto
included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December
31, 1998 and other filings.
NOTE B - INVENTORIES
Raw materials, work-in-process and finished goods inventories are stated at the
lower of standard cost (which approximates actual cost) or market value. The
components of inventory consist of the following (in thousands):

NOTE C - NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE
Basic net income per share is computed using the weighted average number of
shares of Common Stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per
share also gives effect to the dilutive effect of stock options and warrants
(using the treasury stock method).
Options and warrants to purchase 2,579,955 shares of the Company's common stock
would have been anti-dilutive for the three and six month periods ended June 30,
1999 and were, therefore, excluded from the diluted calculation in those
periods.
NOTE D - INCOME TAXES
The Company did not recognize an income tax benefit on its pre-tax loss for the
quarter ended June 30, 1999, due to the uncertainties related to the utilization
of the resulting net operating loss. During the quarter ended June 30, 1998, the
Company's effective tax rate was 38%. FAS 109 provides for the recognition of
deferred tax assets if realization of such assets is more likely than not. Based
on the weight of available evidence, the Company has provided a full valuation
allowance against its deferred tax assets. The Company will continue to evaluate
the realization of the deferred tax assets on a quarterly basis.
NOTE E - SIGNIFICANT CUSTOMERS
Total revenues from two customers accounted for 16% and 20% of revenues for the
six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively. One of the two customers
was the same in both periods. Additionally, royalty revenues from S3
Incorporated ("S3") represented 11% of revenues in the first six months of 1998.
There were no revenues from S3 for the first six months of 1999.
NOTE F - COMPREHENSIVE INCOME
Comprehensive loss approximated net loss for the three and six month periods
ended June 30, 1999.

</TABLE>
Total revenues for the second quarter of 1999 were approximately $3.3 million, a
decrease of approximately 1%, from total revenues of approximately $3.4 million
for the second quarter of 1998. The decrease in revenue was due to lower
revenues from the sale of line multipliers, which was largely offset by higher
sales of both Broadcast and Application Specific Integrated Circuit ("ASIC")
products. Revenues for the first six months of 1999 decreased by approximately
$1.0 million or 14% from the first six months of 1998. The shortfall resulted
from lower sales of line multipliers and the absence of royalties.
6
<PAGE>
The actual number of line multipliers shipped increased period over period,
however, revenue from line multiplier sales decreased because the prices of
most line multipliers were reduced in the third quarter of 1998.
Specifically, at the low end of the product range, line doublers and triplers
faced heavy competition from other line processor manufacturers and from
certain manufacturers that included built-in line doublers in their
projectors.
In the second quarter of 1999 the Company introduced several new line multiplier
models that replaced existing models. The Company shipped all remaining
inventory of existing line multiplier products prior to shipping the new models.
The net result was a record unit shipment of line multipliers to the Company's
dealers, which is the main distribution channel for this product family. Both
units shipped and revenues for the second quarter of 1999 represented a
significant increase over the first quarter of 1999. The Company expects sales
of home theater line multiplier products to remain at the second quarter level
or increase slightly in the following quarters of 1999.
Broadcast sales of Digital Format Translator-TM- products in the second quarter
of 1999 increased significantly over negligible sales in the second quarter of
1998. There was a modest increase in Digital Format Translator sales in the
second quarter of 1999 compared to sales of those products in the first quarter
of 1999. Federal Communication Commission ("FCC") rules require the major TV
stations in the top 30 television markets to begin broadcasting digital TV by
November 1, 1999. This FCC mandate is expected to have a positive impact on
sales of the Company's Broadcast products, specifically the Digital Format
Translator, in the third and fourth quarters of 1999.
Sales of the Company's ASIC products rose in the second quarter of 1999 due
to a significant shipment of ASIC chip sets for use by a customer in Asia.
The Company continues its efforts to develop its ASIC business, but it cannot
predict when other significant ASIC sales will occur.
Subsequent to the end of the second quarter of 1999, the Company signed a
license agreement whereby certain of the Company's intellectual property was
licensed to another company for incorporation into that company's ASIC products.
The agreement provides that the Company will receive royalties on the sale of
any ASICs containing the Company's intellectual property. Shipments of these
ASICs are not expected to begin until the second half of 2000.
The Company continues to pursue other new licensing opportunities, but there can
be no assurance that the Company will enter into additional license agreements.
In summary, the Company anticipates that revenues in the subsequent quarters of
1999 will be equal to or slightly higher than revenues in the second quarter of
1999.
Sales outside the United States accounted for approximately 14% of net product
sales for the second quarter of 1999 and 16% for the first six months of 1999.
These percentages compare to 22% for both the second quarter of 1998 and the
first six months of 1998. The Company intends to pursue efforts to increase its
export sales in the future, however, there
7
<PAGE>
can be no assurance that any growth in export sales will be achieved. All sales
are denominated in U.S. dollars. However, the Company's export sales are subject
to risk in the event of changes in currency exchange rates, which may result in
the Company's products being less price competitive.
The Company's gross margin as a percentage of net sales decreased to 53% of
sales for the second quarter of 1999 from 58% in the second quarter of 1998. The
decline resulted from slightly lower margins of line multiplier products due to
the price reductions implemented in the third quarter of 1998. Compared to the
first quarter of 1999, both the gross margin percentage and the absolute gross
margin dollars significantly increased in the second quarter of 1999 due to
three factors. First, the Company introduced new line multiplier products in the
second quarter of 1999, which produced higher gross margins than the products
they replaced. Second, ASIC products had good margins and meaningful shipment
levels. Third, there was a modest increase in Broadcast products, which have
good margins. The Company expects its gross margins to remain approximately the
same or improve slightly over the next several quarters.
Research and development expenses in the second quarter of 1999 decreased by
approximately $0.4 million, or 26%, as compared to the same quarter of 1998 and
by approximately $0.4 million, or 14%, from the six months of 1999 as compared
to the same period of 1998. The decrease is mostly due to a reduction in
purchases of the prototype parts that were heavily used in the second quarter of
1998 in developing the Digital Format Translator. The Company expects that
research and development expenses will increase in absolute dollars during
remaining quarters of fiscal 1999.
Sales and marketing expenses remained at the same level of $1.0 million for the
second quarter of 1999 compared to the second quarter of 1998. Expenses for the
first six months of 1999 were at the same level as expenses for the same period
of 1998. The Company believes that in absolute dollar terms, expenses for sales
and marketing will decrease slightly in the second half of fiscal 1999.
General and administrative expenses decreased by approximately $0.4 million, or
35%, in the second quarter of 1999 compared to the second quarter of 1998.
Expenses for the first six months of 1999 were approximately $0.4 million or 21%
less than expenses for the same period of 1998. The decrease is related to the
absence of certain non-recurring expenses incurred in the second quarter of 1998
including the registration of shares for selling shareholders and legal expenses
for two lawsuits brought by the Company for patent infringement. The Company
believes that in absolute dollar terms general and administrative expenses will
remain at approximately the same level during the remainder of fiscal 1999.
Net interest and other income was $0.2 million in the second quarter of 1999,
down from the $0.3 million recorded in the second quarter of 1998. Net interest
and other income for the first six months of 1999 was approximately $0.1
million, or 23%, lower than in the same period of 1998. This decrease in
interest income is due to lower period over period cash, cash equivalents and
short-term investment balances. The original source of these cash and investment
balances include the $15.6 million net proceeds from the Company's
8
<PAGE>
initial public offering completed in October 1997, and the $5 million investment
in the Company by S3 in June 1997.
The Company did not book any tax provisions in the second quarter of 1999 due to
the expected loss position for the full year of 1999.
FACTORS AFFECTING FUTURE OPERATING RESULTS
The Company designs and develops products that dramatically improve video image
quality, producing cinema quality images on a wide variety of displays. The
Company is recognized as a world leader in innovative high performance video
processing technologies for markets requiring superior image quality solutions.
These markets currently include HDTV broadcast and large screen home theater,
and are starting to expand into markets being created by new video display
devices such as digital televisions and flat panel displays, and markets
resulting from new applications such as PC/TV convergence. Due to the relative
size of the customers in some of these markets, particularly the broadcast and
PC/TV convergence markets, sales in any one market could fluctuate dramatically
on a quarter to quarter basis.
The Company's operating results have varied in the past and are likely to vary
significantly in the future from period to period as a result of a number of
factors, including the volume and timing of orders received during the period,
the amount and timing of license and royalty revenues, competitive products and
technologies, the timing of new product introductions by the Company and its
competitors, demand for, and market acceptance of, the Company's products,
product line maturation, the impact of price competition on the Company's
average selling prices, delays encountered by the Company's strategic partners,
the availability and pricing of components for the Company's products, changes
in product or distribution channel mix and product returns or price protection
charges from customers. Many of these factors are beyond the Company's control.
In addition, due to the short product life cycles that characterize the markets
for the Company's products, the Company's failure to introduce new, competitive
products consistently and in a timely manner, could materially adversely affect
operating results for one or more product cycles. The Company introduced its new
family of Digital Format Translators in April 1998. There is no assurance as to
the eventual demand for this product, the size of the digital broadcast market,
or that the digital broadcast market will develop in the timeframe currently
mandated by the Federal Communications Commission.
The Company expects that a significant portion of its annual revenues and
profits in the future will depend on strategic relationships. The Company
depends on companies like Vidikron of America, Inc. ("Vidikron") to buy, and
In Focus Systems, Inc. to manufacture, products which incorporate the
Company's technology and a failure by these companies to do so will adversely
affect the Company's total revenues in the future. Vidikron has recently
undergone a change in control and has experienced financial difficulties. The
Company does not know what effect, if any, this will have on sales to
Vidikron.
The Company received quarterly prepaid license fees from S3 to maintain
exclusivity under its license agreement with the Company through March 31, 1998.
No prepayments have been or will be made by S3 with respect to any periods after
March 31, 1998. There
9
<PAGE>
can be no assurance as to the amount of royalties, if any, the Company will
receive in the future as the Company does not have any other license agreements
in effect pursuant to which it is currently receiving substantial royalties.
The Company's success depends in part on its ability to enhance existing
products and introduce new high technology products. The Company must also bring
its products to market at competitive price levels. Unexpected changes in
technical standards, customer demand, pricing of competitive products and
bundling of competitive products as a part of a larger system sale (which is
increasingly common in the home theater and broadcast businesses) could
adversely affect the Company's operating results if the Company is unable to
effectively and timely respond to such changes. The industry is also dependent
to a large extent on proprietary intellectual property rights. From time to time
the Company is subject to legal proceedings and claims in the ordinary course of
business, including claims of alleged infringement of patents, trademarks and
other intellectual property rights. Consequently, from time to time, the Company
will be required to prosecute or defend against alleged infringements of such
rights.
The Company intends to increase both engineering and sales and marketing efforts
in the design, development and sale of board and chip level products while
continuing the sale of stand-alone products for the high-end home theater,
industrial and broadcast markets. Consequently, without a corresponding increase
in revenues, net income will be adversely impacted.
The Company's success also depends to a significant extent upon the
contributions of key executive, sales, marketing, engineering, manufacturing,
and administrative employees, and on the Company's ability to attract and retain
highly qualified personnel, who are in great demand. Unless personnel vacancies
are promptly filled, the loss of current key employees or the Company's
inability to attract and retain other qualified employees in the future could
have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition
and results of operations. The agreement pursuant to which Yves C. Faroudja, the
Company's founder, Chief Technical Officer and Co-Chairman, served as an advisor
to the Company, ended on June 30, 1999. The Company does not know how much time
Mr. Faroudja will continue to devote to the Company's affairs in the future.
YEAR 2000
Certain computers, software and equipment with embedded computing capability
recognize only the last two, rather than all four digits of the year in any
date. As a result they may fail to recognize and properly process date
information or otherwise malfunction unless they are reprogrammed or replaced at
the turn of the century (the "Year 2000 Problem"). The Company is dependent upon
computers, software and equipment with embedded computing capability for all
phases of its operations including production, distribution and accounting. The
Company has developed a plan to determine the impact of the Year 2000 Problem on
its operations. This plan covers an assessment of internal and external Year
2000 Problems, formal contacts with the Company's significant suppliers,
customers, financial organizations, service providers and others to determine
their Year 2000 readiness, remediation of problems where found, and a
contingency plan for problems which cannot be solved on a timely or
cost-effective basis.
10
<PAGE>
The Company has completed an assessment of the products it designs, manufactures
and distributes and believes that the performance and functionality of such
products will not be affected by Year 2000 Problems.
With regard to internal risks associated with Year 2000 Problems, the Company
recently completed a major upgrade of its main business computer systems, which
replaced a majority of its existing systems. The system selected was represented
to be Year 2000 compliant and is expected to eliminate most of the Company's
internal Year 2000 Problems. The Company has tested its main operations computer
system and the system passed this initial Year 2000 test. The Company will
continue testing other internal systems, including engineering workstations and
desktop computers, for Year 2000 compliance. The Company intends to address any
problems identified immediately and to replace any deficient element of its
systems that cannot be made Year 2000 compliant by other means. The Company
believes that any significant Year 2000 Problems will be solved by the fourth
quarter of 1999. The Company has developed a contingency plan for its operations
activities that involves a full detail paper backup for its production, purchase
order and inventory requirements for the first six months of the year 2000.
While it is not presently possible to precisely quantify the overall cost of
this work, the Company does not believe that the cost of addressing the Year
2000 Problem, as it relates to the Company's internal systems, will have a
material adverse effect on the Company's financial position, liquidity or
results of operations. The Company has incurred total costs to date of
approximately $80,000 to address Year 2000 Problems and expects that such costs
will not exceed an additional $20,000 for the remainder of 1999.
In addition to the Company's own systems and equipment, the Company relies,
directly and indirectly, on the systems and equipment of its suppliers,
distributors, customers, creditors, financial organizations, utility companies,
telecommunication service companies and other service providers. Some of these
third parties may have Year 2000 Problems outside of the Company's control that
could adversely affect the Company.
There can be no assurance that the Company will identify all of its Year 2000
Problems, resolve its internal Year 2000 Problems on a timely or cost-effective
basis, or be successful in avoiding the impact of business disruptions which may
be experienced by the Company's suppliers, service providers and other third
parties as a result of Year 2000 Problems. Failure by the Company or third
parties doing business with the Company to identify and resolve Year 2000
problems on a timely basis could have a material adverse effect on the Company's
financial position, liquidity or results of operations.
In summary, the Company's net sales and operating results in any particular
quarter may fluctuate as a result of a number of factors, including competition
in the markets for the Company's products, delays in new product introductions
by the Company, market acceptance of new products such as the Digital Format
Translator, changes in product pricing, the status of strategic relationships,
material costs or customer discounts, the size and timing of customer orders,
dealer and end-user purchasing cycles, variations in the mix of product sales,
manufacturing delays or disruptions in sources of supply, economic conditions
and seasonal purchasing patterns specific to the broadcast, display, PC and home
theater industries, and risk associated with year 2000 Problems. The Company's
11

future operating results will depend, to a large extent, on its ability to
anticipate and successfully react to these and other factors.
Successfully addressing the factors discussed above, which are subject to
various risks discussed in this report, the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 1998, Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the
quarter ended March 31, 1999, and other SEC filings, as well as other factors
which generally affect the market for stocks of high technology companies, will
affect the price of the Company's stock and could cause such stock price to
fluctuate over relatively short periods of time.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
At June 30, 1999, the Company had approximately $19.6 million of cash and cash
equivalents, and working capital of approximately $22.7 million.
The cash and cash equivalents are predominantly held in three types of cash
investments. These investments are obligations issued by U.S. federal agencies,
money market funds which subject the Company to limited interest rate or credit
risk, and commercial paper of U.S. corporations with A1/P1 credit ratings.
Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments at June 30, 1999 declined by
$.9 million or 4% from the balances at December 31, 1998. The cash outflow
resulted from the operating loss along with modest changes in several balance
sheet accounts. During the first quarter of 1999 the Company collected an income
tax refund of approximately $1 million due to the 1998 carry-back operating
losses.
In April 1998, the Company renewed its bank line of credit, which expired in
April 1999. Covenants under the Company's line of credit required the Company to
maintain certain minimum levels of liquidity, net worth, and financial ratios.
No borrowings were made under the line of credit agreement in either 1999 or
1998. The Company expects to renew the bank line of credit in the third quarter
of 1999.
The Company believes that current cash and cash equivalents are sufficient to
fund its operations and meet anticipated capital requirements for at least the
next twelve months.
SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On July 19, 1999 Merv Adelson resigned from the Board of Directors of the
Company after serving as a director of the Company since September 1996. During
the term of the consulting agreement between Mr. Adelson and the Company, which
extends until February 9, 2000, the Company is required to use its best efforts
to elect Mr. Adelson (or a designee of Mr. Adelson reasonably acceptable to the
Board of Directors) to the Board of Directors and to elect an additional
designee of Mr. Adelson to the Board of Directors. Stuart Buchalter serves on
the Board as Mr. Adelson's designee and Mr. Adelson has designated another
individual to fill the vacancy on the Board created by his resignation. The
Board has not yet acted upon Mr. Adelson's request and is not expected to take
any action until its next special or regular meeting.

On July 27, 1999 the Company entered into a Joint Development and License
Agreement, Stock Purchase Agreement and certain supporting agreements with Sage,
Inc. ("Sage"). The agreements involve: (i) the Company's grant of a
royalty-bearing license to Sage of certain video processing technologies for
incorporation into Sage ASIC products; (ii) joint development activities by the
Company and Sage relating to technologies for potential use in Sage digital
display controller ASICs for video applications; (iii) the Company's acquisition
of just under 5% of Sage's Common Stock, $.01 par value; (iv) terms on which the
Company may purchase Sage ASICs incorporating the Company's technologies; and
(v) other related matters.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK
There has been no material change in the Company's market risk since December
31, 1998.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
In January 1997 the Company filed an action against DWIN Electronics, Inc.
("DWIN") seeking injunctive relief and unspecified monetary damages for the
infringement of US Patent Number 4,876,596 (the "596 Patent"). The action was
filed in the United States District Court, Northern District of California, San
Jose Division. The case against DWIN is Civil Action No. C-97 20010 SW (PVT).
The 596 Patent was issued on October 24, 1989, is owned by Yves Faroudja and is
licensed to the Company. DWIN raised defenses and counterclaims that the 596
Patent is invalid and not infringed. It also sought to recover attorneys' fees
and costs.
The Company amended its complaint against DWIN to add claims of infringement of
U.S. Patent Number 4,998,287 (the "287 Patent") on August 17, 1998. The 287
patent was issued on March 5, 1991, is owned by General Instrument Corporation
and is licensed to the Company. On February 24, 1999, the court granted DWIN's
motion for summary judgment as to the 596 Patent on the basis of
non-infringement. On July 21, 1999 DWIN filed a motion for summary judgment as
to the 287 Patent on the basis of non-infringement. The court has not ruled on
the motion. The case continues in the discovery stage.
The Company's management believes that a finding that all of the claims of the
patent remaining in the case are invalid or that the patent has not been
infringed will not have a material adverse effect on the Company because the
Company's products and business are protected by a variety of patents and the
Company will remain competitive even in the absence of the protection afforded
by the patents which are involved in that litigation.
