To the Board of Directors
of Lyte Optronics, Inc.:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Lyte Optronics,
Inc. (a Nevada corporation) and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 1998, and the
related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' investment and cash
flows for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility
of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
these financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Lyte Optronics, Inc. and
Subsidiaries as of December 31, 1998, and the results of their operations and
their cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

LYTE OPTRONICS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1998
1. Line of Business / Significant Risks
Lyte Optronics, Inc. and subsidiaries(the Company)(see Note 3)
manufacture and distribute micro-laser based products. At December 31,
1998, the Company had facilities in California, the People's Republic
of China and England.
The Company incurred a loss of $(3,199,000) for the year ended 1998. At
December 31, 1998, the Company had negative working capital of
$(1,363,000) and an accumulated deficit of $(5,651,000). Cash used in
operating activities during 1998 was $(2,378,000). The Company raised
additional funds in March 1999 (see Note 13). Effective May 27, 1999,
the Company was acquired by American Xtal Technology, Inc. (see Note
13).
2. Concentrations of Risk
Accounts receivable are unsecured and the Company is at risk to the
extent such amounts become uncollectable. Customers include O.E.M.
manufacturers, distributors and consumer product retailers and are
located primarily in the United States, Taiwan and Europe (United
Kingdom, France and Germany). Approximately 37 percent of net sales
were to customers located outside the United States as follows:
Taiwan 31 percent
Europe 6 percent
At December 31, 1998, two customers represented 16 and 12 percent of
accounts receivable. At December 31, 1998, the Company had a 23 percent
investment in the customer representing 16 percent of accounts
receivable (see Notes 3 and 12).
During 1998, the Company had one customer that represented 11 percent
of net sales.
During 1998, the Company purchased materials and sub-assembly units
from two vendors that accounted for 18 percent (a Japanese vendor) and
11 percent(a domestic vendor) of total purchases.
3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation
11
<PAGE> 12
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts
of the Company's wholly-owned subsidiaries: Lyte Optronics Ltd. (a
United Kingdom company) and Advanced Semiconductor (a Xiamen, Peoples
Republic of China company). All significant intercompany accounts and
transactions have been eliminated.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions. These estimates or assumptions affect the reported
amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses as reflected in
the consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ from
those estimates.
Inventories
Inventories consist of raw materials, labor and manufacturing overhead
and are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market and
are as follows at December 31, 1998:
<TABLE>
<S> <C>
Raw materials $2,241,000
Work-in-process 1,112,000
Finished goods 1,415,000
----------
$4,768,000
==========
</TABLE>
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation and
amortization are computed using the straight-line method over the
following estimated useful lives:
<TABLE>
<S> <C>
Building and improvements 10 to 39 years
Machinery and equipment 3 to 5 years
Computer equipment 3 years
Furniture and fixtures 4 to 5 years
Leasehold improvements Lesser of 10 years or life of lease
</TABLE>
The Company capitalizes expenditures that materially increase asset
lives and charges maintenance and repairs to operations as incurred.
When assets are sold or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related
depreciation or amortization are removed from the accounts and any
resulting gain or loss is included in other (income) expense in the
accompanying consolidated statement of operations.
12
<PAGE> 13
Goodwill
The Company recorded goodwill in connection with the acquisition of
(see Note 10) Alpha Photonics, Inc. The goodwill is being amortized on
a straight-line basis over 5 years.
Management continuously reviews the value and period of amortization
for its goodwill and determines whether a permanent impairment exists
under the provisions of SFAS No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of
Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of."
Other Assets
Included in other assets is $223,000 related to an investment in a
joint venture. The Company has a 23 percent investment in On Lyte
Photonics (On Lyte), a company that is also a customer of the Company.
The Company accounts for this investment under the equity method of
accounting (see Notes 2 and 13).
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue at the time of shipment. The Company
provides for estimated returns and allowances and warranty at the time
of shipment.
Warranty
The Company typically warrants its products against defects in material
and workmanship for a period of three months to one year from the date
of shipment. A provision for estimated future warranty costs is
recorded when products are shipped. To date, warranty costs have not
been material.
Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows
The Company prepares its consolidated statement of cash flows using the
indirect method as defined under SFAS No. 95. During the year, the
Company paid approximately $585,000 in interest and $42,000 in taxes.
During 1998, the Company obtained property and equipment under new
capital lease obligations totaling $1,673,000. In addition, the Company
issued $7,500,000 of Class B common shares and $4,000,000 of Series B
preferred shares in connection with the acquisition of Alpha Photonics,
Inc. At the time of the acquisition, the value of the shares issued
exceeded the value of Alpha's tangible net assets by $2,992,000. The
Company has recorded the $2,992,000 as goodwill.
Foreign Currency
The financial statements of Lyte Optronics, Ltd. and Advance
Semiconductor are measured using the local currency as the functional
currency. Foreign currency asset and liability accounts are translated
to the U.S. dollar using the exchange rates in effect at the end of the
accounting period. Revenue and expense accounts are translated at a
weighted
13
<PAGE> 14
average of exchange rates during the period. The cumulative effect of
translation is recorded as Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss as a
separate component of stockholders' investment.
New Authoritative Pronouncement
In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No.
130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income" (SFAS No. 130). SFAS No. 130 is
effective for the year ending 1998. SFAS No. 130 establishes new
standards for the reporting and presentation of comprehensive income
and its components. The Company has presented a calculation of fiscal
1998 Comprehensive Loss within the accompanying consolidated statement
of stockholders' investment.
4. Receivables From Officer and Stockholders
The Company has an unsecured note receivable totaling $210,000 from its Chief
Executive Officer and stockholder. The note bears interest at an annual rate of
10 percent. The principal and accrued interest are due on demand.
The Company has advances receivable from various stockholders totaling $159,000.
The advances are non-interest bearing and are due on demand.
5. Line of Credit
At December 31, 1998, the Company had a $5,000,000 credit facility with a bank
expiring in February 2000. The facility is comprised of a term loan (see Note 6)
and a line of credit. Under the terms of the facility, as the term loan is paid
down, the maximum available under the line of credit is increased such that
total maximum availability under the entire facility is $5,000,000.
As of December 31, 1998, there was $921,000 outstanding under the line of credit
portion of this facility. The term loan balance at December 31, 1998 was
$1,395,000, resulting in a maximum availability under the line of credit of
$3,605,000. However, availability under the line of credit is limited to a
borrowing formula based on eligible accounts receivable and inventories. The
borrowings are secured by the Company's assets and bear interest at the bank's
prime rate plus 1.75 percent (9.5 percent at December 31, 1998). The Company is
subject to various financial and non-financial restrictive covenants under the
terms of this facility. The Company was either in compliance with or had
received a waiver for all such covenants as of December 31, 1998.
The Company also has a $333,000 line of credit facility in the United Kingdom
through its subsidiary, Lyte Optronics Ltd. The facility is secured by the
subsidiary's assets and bears interest at the bank's base rate plus 2 percent
(8.25 percent at December 31, 1998). As of December 31, 1998, there was $95,000
outstanding under this facility.

8. Income Taxes
Under SFAS 109, deferred income tax assets or liabilities are computed based on

Under SFAS 109, deferred tax assets may be recognized for temporary differences
that will result in deductible amounts in future periods and for loss
carryforwards. A valuation allowance is recognized if, based on the weight of
available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the
deferred tax asset will not be realized.

10. Acquisition Of Alpha Photonics, Inc.
On September 29, 1998, the Company consummated a merger with Alpha Photonics,
Inc., a California Corporation that manufactures and distributes laser diodes
and other laser products. The transaction was accounted for as a purchase of
Alpha by the Company.
The Company issued 5,033,040 shares of Class B common stock (including 179,184
shares under an anti-dilution provision described below) and 4,000,000 shares of
Series B preferred stock to the former stockholders of Alpha in exchange for all
the outstanding shares of Alpha stock. The Company recorded goodwill of
$2,992,000, representing the excess of the value of the shares issued by the
Company over the net book value of Alpha. The Company is amortizing the goodwill
on a straight-line basis over 5 years.
In November 1998, the Company completed a round of financing with a mezzanine
lender. Upon completion of the financing, pursuant to an anti-dilution
arrangement, the Company issued the Class B common stockholders 179,184
additional shares and a warrant for 107,511 additional shares.
As a result of the merger, the stockholders of the Company held Class A common
and Series A Convertible preferred stock equivalent to 40 percent of the total
equity ownership of the surviving company. The former stockholders of Alpha held
Class B common equivalent to 60 percent of the total equity ownership of the
surviving company and Series B preferred stock, which is non-convertible. The
Class A common stockholders, together with the Series A preferred stockholders
of the Company are entitled to elect five members of the Board of Directors of
the surviving entity. The Class B Common stockholders of are entitled to elect
four members of the Board of Directors of the surviving company. The Class A
common stockholders will maintain control of the Board of Directors for a period
of 10 years or until the Company completes an initial public offering of common
stock.
11. Stockholders' Investment
Stock Split
In September 1998, in connection with the acquisition of Alpha, the
Company split its shares of common stock 6.67114 for 1. This stock
split has been reflected as though it had occurred at the beginning of
the period.
Preferred Stock
The Company's capital structure consists of the following classes of
preferred stocks (as amended on May 14, 1999, see Note 13):
- Series A Preferred - These shares carry a 5 percent
annual dividend and are convertible into Class A
common shares at $1.54 per share. These shares vote
based on the Class A common shares that would be
issued upon conversion.
19
<PAGE> 20
These shares also have a $750,000 liquidation
preference over both classes of common shares.
- Series B Preferred - These shares carry a 5 percent
annual dividend and have a $4,000,000 liquidation
preference over both classes of common shares. These
shares do not have voting rights.
Private Placement of Series A Convertible Preferred
In July 1998, the Company raised $750,000 ($724,000 net of issuance
costs) through the issuance of 750 shares of Series A convertible
preferred stock.
Reacquisition and Retirement of Shares
Pursuant to a 1996 Share Issuance Agreement, among other terms, the
Company had previously issued 240,161 shares of common stock as a
deposit toward a potential acquisition of certain assets. No
acquisition of these assets occurred. In October 1998, under a
Settlement Agreement, these shares were returned to the Company. All
240,161 shares were cancelled in connection with this transaction.
Share Issuance in Connection With Debt Financing
In November 1998, the Company entered into a Loan and Stock
Subscription Agreement with a lender. The Company issued 731,286 shares
of Class A common stock. Total debt and equity financing amounted to
$2,600,000, with an option to borrow up to additional $1,000,000. The
agreement entitles the lender to a Put Option to require the Company to
repurchase a portion or all of the shares (based on a formula price as
defined in the agreement). The Put Option is exercisable by the lender
during the 5 year period from the date the note is paid in full
(December 2003). In addition, the agreement also allows the Company two
"claw back" options as follows: (1) 137,116 of the shares if the
additional $1,000,000 is never funded and (2) 137,116 of the shares in
the event the $2,600,000 is paid off in full prior to December 31,
2001, accompanied by a $300,000 fee. On May 26, 1999, the Company
notified the lender that the Company would not borrow the additional
$1,000,000 and was exercising its option to reacquire 137,116 shares of
common stock (see Note 13).
The Company computed the original issue discount and allocated
$1,126,000 of the proceeds to the Class A common shares. The discount
was recorded against the note payable and is being amortized over the
term of the debt (see Note 6).
Stock Options
In 1998, the Company adopted the 1998 Stock Option Plan (the Plan).
Under the terms of the Plan, the Company is authorized to issue
incentive and non-qualified stock options to its directors, officers,
key employees and consultants totaling up to 3,250,000 shares of common
stock. At December 31, 1998, 2,793,068 shares are available for future
grant under these plans. Options are generally granted at exercise
prices not less than the fair market value, as determined by the Board
20
<PAGE> 21
of Directors, on the date of grant and expire ten years after the date
of grant. Options granted under these plans vest over varying terms
ranging from immediate vesting to four years.

In September 1998, the Company repriced 62,643 options that had been previously
granted at an exercise price of $4.35 per share. The options were repriced at an
exercise price of $1.54 per share, reflecting the current fair value at the time
of the repricing.

The Company has elected to continue to measure compensation costs
associated with its stock option plan under APB No. 25, "Accounting for
Stock Issued to Employees" and comply with the pro forma disclosure
requirements of SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation"
(SFAS No. 123).
Had the Company applied the fair value based method of accounting,
which is not required, to all grants of stock options, under SFAS No.
123, the Company would have recorded additional compensation expense of
$52,000 and computed pro forma net loss of $(3,251,000).
These pro forma amounts were determined by computing the fair value of
each option on its grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing
model with the following assumptions:
- Risk Free Interest Rate: 5.7 to 6.3 percent
- Expected Life of Options: 10 years
- Volatility: None
- Dividends: None
12. Related Party Transactions
The Company has various receivables from officers and stockholders (see Note 4).
The Company has various payables to officers and stockholders (see Note 7).
The Company had $906,000 of sales to On Lyte, a company that was owned in part
by the Company (see Notes 3 and 13). At December 31, 1998, there was $779,000
included in accounts receivable due from On Lyte.
The Company had sales of $263,000 to a company that is also a minority
stockholder of the Company. At December 31, 1998, there was $184,000 included in
accounts receivable due from this customer
13. Subsequent Events
Separation Agreement
In January 1999, the Company and the former Chief Financial Officer
(CFO) entered into a Separation Agreement. Under the Agreement, among
other terms, the Company granted the former CFO a Put Option to sell
his vested and unexercised stock options
23
<PAGE> 24
back to the Company. The CFO sold 18,412 vested options to the Company
at a negotiated price of $4.00 per option, less the $1.54 exercise
price.
Investment in Joint Venture
At December 31, 1998, the Company had a 23 percent investment in On
Lyte, also a customer of the Company (see Notes 3 and 12). In February
1999, the Company accepted inventories and equipment and a forgiveness
of trade payables as settlement for trade receivables. The
consideration received by the Company was in excess of the trade
receivables. The Company recorded this excess amount as a reduction in
their investment in On Lyte, reducing their investment to zero.
Financing From Stockholder
On March 25, 1999, the Company borrowed $1,222,000 from a company owned
by certain stockholders of the Company. The loan is unsecured and bears
interest at an annual rate of 25 percent. Interest is payable monthly
and the principal and any accrued but unpaid interest is due in full on
June 5, 1999.
Amendment to Articles of Incorporation
In May 1999, the Company amended it articles of incorporation to
increase the authorized number of shares of Class A common shares to
12,000,000 and Class B common shares to 6,000,000. The accompanying
consolidated financial statements reflect this increase in authorized
shares.
Reacquisition of Common Shares
On May 26, 1999, pursuant to a "claw-back" option from its November
1998 Loan and Stock Subscription Agreement (see Note 11), the Company
reacquired 137,116 shares of previously issued common stock.
Acquisition of Company
Effective May 27, 1999, the Company was acquired by American Xtal
Technology, Inc. (AXT). Under the terms of the acquisition agreement,
AXT will issue up to 2,403,292 shares of common stock in exchange for
all the outstanding shares of the Company's Class A and Class B common
stock as well as the outstanding shares of the Company's Series A
preferred stock. AXT will also issue up to 1,000,000 shares of
preferred stock in exchange for all the outstanding shares of the
Company's Series B preferred stock.

Notes to Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Statements
(unaudited)
The following unaudited pro forma combined financial statements give
effect to both (i) the merger of American Xtal Technology, Inc. ("AXT" or the
"Company") with Lyte Optronics, Inc. ("Lyte") on May 28, 1999, which was
accounted for as a pooling of interests, and (ii) acquisition by Lyte of Alpha
Photonics, Inc. ("Alpha") on September 29, 1998, which was accounted for as a
purchase. The unaudited pro forma condensed balance sheet presents the combined
financial position of AXT and Lyte as of March 31, 1999, assuming that the
merger had occurred as of March 31, 1999. Such pro forma information is based
upon the historical balance sheet data of AXT and Lyte as of that date. The
unaudited pro forma condensed statements of operations give effect to the merger
of AXT and Lyte by combining the results of operations of AXT and Lyte for each
of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1998 and the three months
ended March 31, 1998 and 1999, on a pooling of interests basis. The unaudited
pro forma condensed statements of operations for the year ended December 31,
1998 and the three months ended March 31, 1998 also give effect to the
acquisition by Lyte of Alpha by combining Alpha's operating results for the
period from January 1, 1998 to September 28, 1998 and the three months ended
March 31, 1998 with the pro forma statements of operations of AXT and Lyte for
the year ended December 31, 1998 and the three months ended March 31, 1998,
respectively. Alpha's operating results for the period from September 29, 1998
to December 31, 1998 and the three months ended March 31, 1999 have been
included in Lyte's consolidated statements of operations for the year ended
December 31, 1998 and the three months ended March 31, 1999, respectively. These
unaudited pro forma financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
historical financial statements and notes thereto of AXT included in its Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1998 and the historical
financial statements and notes thereto of Lyte included as a exhibit herein.
The unaudited pro forma information is presented for illustrative
purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the operating results or
financial position that would have occurred if the merger had been consummated
at the beginning of the periods presented, nor is it necessarily indicative of
future operating results or financial position.

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Pro Forma Basis of Presentation
On September 29, 1998, Lyte acquired Alpha by issuing 5,033,000 shares
of Lyte Class B common stock and 4,000,000 shares of Series B preferred stock of
Lyte to the stockholders of Alpha in exchange for all the outstanding shares of
Alpha stock. The transaction was accounted for as a purchase of Alpha by Lyte.
Lyte recorded goodwill of $2,992,000, representing the excess of the fair value
of the shares issued by Lyte over the net book value of Alpha. The goodwill is
being amortized on a straight-line basis over 5 years.
On May 28, 1999, AXT acquired Lyte through the issuance of 2,363,000
shares of AXT common stock and 983,000 shares of preferred stock of AXT in
exchange for all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Lyte. In
addition, Lyte's options and warrants representing 455,000 shares of Lyte common
stock were assumed by AXT and converted into AXT's options and warrants
representing 115,000 shares of AXT common stock. The merger of AXT and Lyte was
accounted for as a pooling of interests.
The unaudited pro forma combined financial statements have been
prepared to reflect the merger of AXT and Lyte as if AXT and Lyte had been
combined for all periods presented, and the acquisition of Alpha by Lyte as if
the acquisition had occurred on January 1, 1998.
The unaudited pro forma combined financial statements reflect the
issuance of 2,363,000 shares of AXT common stock and 983,000 shares of preferred
stock of AXT in exchange for all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of
Lyte as of the date of the merger, which resulted in exchange ratios of
approximately 0.252682 share of AXT common stock for each share of Lyte common
stock and 0.245765 share of AXT preferred stock for each share of Lyte preferred
stock.
2. MERGER TRANSACTION COSTS
AXT and Lyte incurred direct transaction costs of approximately
$2,810,000 associated with the merger, which were charged to operations during
the quarter ended June 30, 1999, the period in which the transaction was
consummated. There can be no assurance that AXT will not incur additional
charges in subsequent quarters to reflect costs associated with the merger or
that management will be successful in their efforts to integrate the operations
of the respective companies. This charge is an estimate and is subject to
change.
3. INCOME TAXES
The provision for income taxes does not reflect the benefit of Lyte's
net operating losses due to certain limitations in utilization and uncertainty
surrounding the realization of the tax benefits associated with such losses.
4. PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS
The following pro forma adjustments have been made to the historical
financial statements of AXT, Lyte and Alpha based upon preliminary estimates and
assumptions made by management for the purpose of preparing the unaudited pro
forma combined condensed financial statements.
A. To eliminate inter company accounts receivable and payable
balances between AXT and Lyte at March 31, 1999.
B. To eliminate inter company profit included in Lyte's inventory
at March 31, 1999.
C. To eliminate inter company notes receivable and payable
balances between AXT and Lyte at March 31, 1999.
D. To recapture inter company profit included in Lyte's inventory
at December 31, 1998.

E. To eliminate inter company sales from AXT to Lyte for the
three months ended March 31, 1999.
F. To eliminate inter company sales from AXT to Lyte for the year
ended December 31, 1998.
G. To eliminate inter company profit included in Lyte's inventory
at December 31, 1998.
H. To eliminate inter company sales and purchases among AXT, Lyte
and Alpha during the period from January 1, 1998 to September
28, 1998.
I. To reflect the additional amortization expenses related to
goodwill resulting from the acquisition of Alpha.
J. To eliminate intercompany accounts receivable and payable
between AXT and Lyte at December 31, 1998.
K. To eliminate allowance for deferred tax asset at Lyte as the
combined entity is more likely than not to utilize the
deferred tax asset.
L. To realize tax benefit on net loss from Lyte's operations.
5. PRO FORMA NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE
The pro forma combined basic and diluted net income (loss) per share is
based on the combined weighted average number of common shares of AXT Common
Stock and Lyte Common Stock outstanding for each period using the relevant
exchange ratios based on the issuance of approximately 2,363,000 shares of AXT
Common Stock and 983,000 shares of AXT Preferred Stock for all of the
outstanding shares of Lyte as of the acquisition date. All convertible preferred
stock, warrants and employee stock options have been included in the computation
of pro forma combined diluted net income per share using the treasury stock
method to the extent such instruments are dilutive for the periods presented.
