In the opinion of management of Chyron Corporation (the "Company"), the accompanying unaudited consolidated interim financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of March 31, 2000 and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for the periods ended March 31, 2000 and 1999. The results of operations for such interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2000. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. For further information, refer 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, 1999. The December 31, 1999 figures included herein were derived from such audited consolidated financial statements. Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1999 financial statements to conform to the 2000 method of presentation.

Accounts receivable is stated net of an allowance for doubtful accounts of $3.9 million and $3.3 million at March 31, 2000 and December 31, 1999, respectively.

Inventories, net of obsolescence reserves, consist of the following (in thousands):

In connection with its $12 million credit facility with a bank, the Company is required to maintain a certain level of reported earnings. As of March 31, 2000, the Company was not in compliance with such financial covenant for which it obtained a waiver from its lender.

In August 1999, the Company received a notice from the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") indicating that it did not currently meet the new continued listing standards issued in late July 1999. The new criteria revised and raised the minimum requirement of stockholders' equity to $50 million from $12 million of net tangible assets and global market capitalization to $50 million from $12 million. Companies below these levels must submit a business plan to the NYSE demonstrating how the Company anticipates meeting the new standards within an eighteen month period. The Company submitted its plan to the NYSE and received approval in December 1999. The Company will be working closely with the NYSE as the exchange monitors the Company's compliance with the plan on a quarterly basis.

In April 2000, the Company raised $20 million in connection with a private placement of 3,076,923 shares of its common stock at a price of $6.50. The offering price per share was determined based on negotiations between the Company and its placement agents taking into account the historical trading history of the common stock and market conditions at such time. The price of the common stock, as listed on the NYSE, ranged between 5 7/16 and 9 7/16 on the various closing dates. The Company expects to apply the net proceeds, estimated to be approximately $18.2 million, towards sales, marketing, the pursuit of strategic alliances and research and development in connection with its new media business. The Company has agreed to prepare and file a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933 for purposes of registering these shares.

In connection with the private placement, the Company issued 151,914 warrants to the placement agents and 60,000 warrants to a consulting company to purchase common stock of the Company at the offering price of $6.50. These warrants, which are immediately exercisable, will expire in April 2005.

Chyron's businesses are organized, managed and internally reported as two segments. The segments, which are based on differences in products and technologies, are Graphics Products and Media Management Systems. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" included in the Company's Financial Statements contained in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999. The Company is an integrated organization characterized by interdivisional cooperation, cost allocations and inventory transfers. Therefore, management does not represent that these segments, if operated independently, would report the financial information shown below.

From time to time, including in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Company may publish forward-looking statements relating to such matters as anticipated financial performance, business prospects, technological developments, changes in the industry, new products, research and development activities and similar matters. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a safe harbor for such forward-looking statements. In order to comply with the terms of the safe harbor, the Company notes that a variety of factors could cause the Company's actual results to differ from the anticipated results or other expectations expressed in the Company's forward-looking statements. The risks and uncertainties that may affect the operations, performance, development and results of the Company's business include, without limitation, the following: product concentration in a mature market, dependence on the emerging digital market and the industry's transition to DTV and HDTV, consumer acceptance of DTV and HDTV, resistance within the broadcast or cable industry to implement DTV and HDTV technology, rapid technological changes, new technologies that could render certain Chyron products to be obsolete, a highly competitive environment, competitors with significantly greater financial resources, new product introductions by competitors, seasonality, fluctuations in quarterly operating results, ability to maintain adequate levels of working capital, ability to maintain its NYSE listing, expansion into new markets and the Company's ability to successfully implement its acquisition and strategic alliance strategy.

This discussion should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements including the Notes thereto.

Sales for the quarter ended March 31, 2000 were $14.8 million, a decrease of $0.2 million, or 1% over the $15 million reported for the first quarter of 1999. A minor increase in the level of sales of graphics products was offset by a comparable decline in the level of sales of Pro-Bel products. Market demand remains static as there is little indication that the uncertainty surrounding HDTV is over. U.S. revenues improved by approximately $1.2 million, but were offset by a decline of $1.4 million due to a continued weak international market. The international market, concentrated in Europe, has been impacted by the reduced value of the Euro against the British pound and the requirement to discount our prices to remain competitive.

Gross margins as a percentage of sales decreased to 43.5% in the first quarter of 2000 compared to 45% in the first quarter of 1999. This decline is primarily due to a change in product mix, offset to a lesser degree by some improvement in margins resulting from product redesigns. The weakness of the Euro against the British pound also contributes negatively to gross margin due to the discounts offered in pricing product discussed above.

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses decreased by $1.4 million or 19%, to $5.9 million in the quarter ended March 31, 2000 compared to $7.3 million for the first quarter of 1999. SG&A expenses in the three month period reflect the reduced level of expenses as a result of the restructuring that occurred in the second quarter of 1999. Overall, headcount has been reduced by approximately 25%. Additional costs to implement our strategy in the new media marketplace have started to be incurred and will grow in future quarters.

Research and development (R&D) costs in 2000 remain relatively flat overall when compared to 1999 levels. Efforts in this area have been redirected to Internet streaming products and graphics products for Interactive TV. Overall R&D costs are expected to grow in future quarters as the Company increases its efforts to develop products and services for the new media marketplace.

Interest and other expense increased by $0.7 million in the three months ended March 31, 2000 as compared to 1999. Interest expense during the three month period ended March 31, 2000 increased primarily as a result of the Company's decision to satisfy an interest obligation related to its subordinated debentures by issuing additional debentures which resulted in a non-cash charge of $0.5 million. Also impacting the increase is an exchange loss of $0.05 million recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2000 as compared to an exchange gain of $0.15 million for the three months ended March 31, 1999.

The Company did not record a tax benefit in 2000 relative to its operating loss, as it did in the first quarter of 1999. As previously reported, the Company established a full valuation against its U.S. deferred tax assets to recognize the uncertainty surrounding its realizability. Consequently, until the Company has U.S. taxable income, no additional benefit will be realized.

At March 31, 2000, the Company had cash on hand of $1.6 million and working capital of $15.6 million.

As set forth in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, the Company used $1.2 million in cash from operations during the three months ended March 31, 2000 as compared to generating $0.5 million in cash for the comparable 1999 period. The utilization of cash from operations results primarily from the realization of the net loss and the increase in accounts receivable and inventory balances, offset by an increase in accounts payable. Inventories rose in the first quarter of 2000 due to the additional product required to be built for the 2000 Olympic summer games.

The Company also utilized a $2.9 million in cash as a result of a paydown of its revolving credit facility and received $0.6 million from the issuance of common stock as a result of option exercises.

In April 2000, as discussed in the notes to the financial statements, the Company raised $20 million in connection with a private placement of 3,076,923 shares of common stock. The Company expects to apply the net proceeds, estimated to be $18.2 million, towards sales, marketing, the pursuit of strategic alliances and research and development in connection with its new media business.

The Company is exposed to currency risk in the normal course of business related to investments in its foreign subsidiaries and the level of sales to foreign customers. For the three months ended March 31, 2000 and 1999, sales to foreign customers were 45% and 54% of total sales, respectively. Substantially all sales generated outside of the U.S. are denominated in British pounds sterling. The net impact of foreign exchange transactions for the three months ended March 31, 2000 and 1999 was a loss of $0.05 million and a gain of $0.15 million, respectively. The falling value of the Euro against the British pound has required the Company to discount its prices in Europe to be competitive with other manufacturers in that marketplace. Foreign currency hedging activity is not material to the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations, or its cash flow.

ITEM 1. Legal Proceedings

The Company from time to time is involved in routine legal matters incidental to its business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate resolution of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

ITEM 2. Changes in Securities

In April 2000 the Company completed a private placement of 3,076,923 shares of common stock at a price of $6.50 per share to certain "accredited investors" (as such term is defined in Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended). Net proceeds to the Company were approximately $18.2 million. The Company expects to use the net proceeds for sales, marketing, the pursuit of strategic alliances and research and development in connection with its new media business. Oakes, Fitzwilliams and Co. Limited and C. E. Unterberg, Towbin acted as placement agents in connection with the private placement. The offering price per share was determined based on negotiations between the Company and the placement agents taking into account the historical trading history of the common stock and market conditions at the time. In connection with the private placement, the Company paid the placement agents an aggregate of $984,394 for commissions, structuring fees and expenses and issued the placement agents five year warrants, which are immediately exercisable, to purchase an aggregate of 151,914 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $6.50 per share. The sale of the securities was exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933 pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 and Rule 506 promulgated thereunder which provides for an exemption for certain private sales of securities.
