PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION
ITEM 1. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DREXLER TECHNOLOGY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been
prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of
the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote
disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted
pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes the
disclosures which are made are adequate to make the information presented not
misleading. Further, the condensed consolidated financial statements reflect, in
the opinion of management, all adjustments (which included only normal recurring
adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position and results of
operations as of and for the periods indicated.
It is suggested that these condensed consolidated financial statements be
read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto for the
year ended March 31, 2000, included in the Company's Form 10-K Annual Report.
The results of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2000 are not
necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the entire year ending
March 31, 2001.
Fiscal Period: For purposes of presentation, the Company has indicated its
accounting period as ending on March 31 and its interim quarterly periods as
ending on the corresponding month end. The Company, in fact, operates and
reports quarterly periods ending on the Friday closest to month end. The 13-week
first quarter of fiscal 2001 ended on June 30, 2000.
Note 1 - Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Short-term Investments: The Company
considers all highly liquid investments, consisting primarily of commercial
paper with original maturities of three months or less, to be cash equivalents.
All investments with original maturities of more than three months but less than
one year, are classified as short-term investments. During the fiscal 2000
second quarter ended September 30, 1999, the Company began investing in
short-term investments, consisting primarily of commercial paper. Management
determines the appropriate classification of debt and equity securities at the
time of purchase and reevaluates such designation as of each balance sheet date.
As of June 30, 2000, the Company had $6,518,000 classified as short- term
investments, and all marketable securities have been classified as
held-to-maturity and consisted of commercial paper.
Note 2 - Inventories: Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or
market, with cost determined on a first-in, first-out basis and market based on
the lower of replacement cost or estimated realizable value. The components of
inventories as of March 31 are (in thousands):

Recent Accounting Pronouncements. In December 1999, the Securities and
Exchange Commission (SEC) issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 101,
"Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements" and amended it in March and June
2000 with respect to the effective dates. SAB 101 provides guidance on applying
generally accepted accounting principles to revenue recognition issues in
financial statements. The Company believes that its current revenue recognition
policies comply with SAB 101.
In March 2000, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
Financial Standards Board Interpretation (FIN) No. 44, "Accounting for Certain
Transactions Involving Stock Compensation--an Interpretation of APB Opinion No.
25." FIN 44 addresses the application of APB 25 to clarify, among other issues,
(a) the definition of employee for purposes of applying APB 25, (b) the criteria
for determining whether a plan qualifies as a noncompensatory plan, (c) the
accounting consequence of various modifications to the terms of a previously
fixed stock option or award, and (d) the accounting for an exchange of stock
compensation awards in a business combination. FIN 44 is effective July 1, 2000,
but certain conclusions cover specific events that occur after either December
15, 1998, or January 12, 2000. To the extent FIN 44 covers events occurring
during the period after December 15, 1998, or January 12, 2000, but before the
effective date of July 1, 2000, the effects of applying the interpretation will
be recognized on a prospective basis from July 1, 2000. The Company currently is
evaluating FIN 44 and does not expect that it will have a material effect on its
financial position or results of operations.
Earnings Per Share: The Company computes earnings per share in accordance
with SFAS 128, "Earnings Per Share." SFAS 128 requires companies to compute net
income per share under two different methods, basic and diluted, and present per
share data for all periods in which a statement of income is presented. Basic
earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average
number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is
computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of
common stock and common stock equivalents outstanding. Common stock equivalents
consist of stock options using the treasury stock method. The reconciliation of
the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted earnings per share
computation for the three months ended June 30, 1999 and June 30, 2000 is shown
in the following table (in thousands, except per share data):
1999 2000
------ -------
Net income ............................................ $ 845 $ 1,440
====== =======
Basic earnings per share:
Weighted average common shares outstanding ......... 9,794 9,872
------ -------
Basic earnings per share .............................. $ .09 $ .15

Diluted earnings per share:
Weighted average common shares outstanding ......... 9,794 9,872
Weighted average common shares from

------ -------
Weighted average common shares and common
stock equivalents outstanding ...................... 9,902 10,236
------ -------
Diluted earnings per share ............................ $ .09 $ .14
====== =======
Because they would be antidilutive, having an exercise price greater than
the average market value for the periods, stock options representing 1,336,734
shares are excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the
three months ended June 30, 1999, and stock options representing 297,200 shares
are excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the three
months ended June 30, 2000.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS--FISCAL 2001 FIRST QUARTER COMPARED WITH FISCAL 2000 FIRST
QUARTER
Revenues
For the fiscal 2001 first quarter ended June 30, 2000, the Company's total
revenues were $5,171,000 compared with $3,741,000 for last year's first quarter.
Product Revenues. Sales of LaserCard(R) optical memory cards and related
products were $4,989,000 for the first three months of fiscal 2001 versus
$3,730,000 for the comparable period last year. The Company sold approximately
1,100,000 LaserCard(R) optical memory cards for the fiscal 2001 first quarter
compared with approximately 1,000,000 for last year's first quarter.
Applications for the Company's LaserCard products include: an electronic
commerce pay-per-use system combined with a medical data application in the
United States; various programs in Europe and Asia, including medical-record
cards, a building construction permit, and multi-function card applications; and
U.S. government-related programs, including the U.S. Department of Defense cargo
shipment "Automated Manifest" card, the U.S. Immigration and Naturalization
Service (INS) Permanent Resident Card ("Green Card"), and the U.S. Department of
State (DoS) border crossing card ("Laser Visa").
In addition to using its own marketing staff, the Company utilizes
value-added reseller (VAR) companies and licensees for the development of
commercial markets and applications for LaserCard products. Product sales to
VARs and licensees include the Company's optical memory cards, the Company's
system software, optical card read/write drives, and add-on peripherals made by
other companies (such as equipment for adding a digitized photo, fingerprint,
hand template, or signature to the cards). The VARs/licensees may add
application software, personal computers (PCs), and other peripherals, and then
resell these products integrated into data systems.
In order to upgrade its customer base, the Company is continuing its
efforts to recruit new VARs/licensees and eliminate nonproductive VARs. The
Company provides customer technical support and system software to assist VARs
and licensees.
Optical card-related software is an important factor in developing the
commercial markets for optical memory cards. The Company's system software
consists of optical card interface software/device drivers, file systems,
software development tools, demonstration software, and an application software
program. To date, the Company's software development has been completed
concurrent with the establishment of technological feasibility and, accordingly,
all software development costs have been charged to research and development
expense in the accompanying statements of income.
The Company's VARs and/or their customers develop the application software
for specific end-user applications. Several VARs have written optical card
software programs for applications such as automobile warranty and maintenance
records, cargo manifesting, digital optical key systems, admissions/ID, data
logging systems, and various medical-related applications such as health history
cards. The Company sells an application software program that it completed
during fiscal 2000 in coordination with an existing commercial software company,
for LaserCard personalization (printing and encoding of personal data).
Optical memory cards are used in conjunction with a card read/write drive,
produced by the Company, that connects to a personal computer. The read/write
drive is integrated as a PC logical drive and has drive-letter
-7-
<PAGE>
access in the same manner as floppy disk drives. The price, performance, and
availability of read/write drives are factors in the commercialization of
optical cards. The Company sells read/write drives for less than three thousand
dollars per unit, and these units generally include the Company's interface
software/device drivers.
The Company maintains an inventory of read/write drive parts and finished
drives that it believes are adequate to meet customer demand. However, an
interruption in the supply of read/write drive parts or difficulties encountered
in read/write drive assembly could cause a delay in shipments of drives and
optical memory cards and a possible loss of sales, which would adversely affect
operating results.
License Fee Revenues. Revenues from license fees were $179,000 for the
first quarter of fiscal 2001, consisting of revenue earned on a license that
allows a licensee in Italy to purchase parts kits from the Company and assemble
read/write drives from the parts kits. There were no license revenues in the
year-ago first quarter. The Company does not rely on license fees to finance
operations.
Backlog
As of June 30, 2000, the backlog for LaserCard optical memory cards was
approximately $9 million. About 54% of this backlog is for U.S. government
orders.
During the fiscal 2001 first quarter, the Company announced that it was
awarded a U. S. government subcontract with an authorized maximum of $81 million
over a period of up to five years. The subcontract was received by the Company
through a LaserCard VAR that is a U.S. government prime contractor, under a
competitively bid, government procurement contract. Under the subcontract, the
Company will supply up to 24 million LaserCard optical memory cards at an
average selling price of about $3.40 per card. The subcontract for 24 million
optical memory cards provides that each order release to the Company will be for
quantities of not less than one million cards per order, under an initial
one-year contract period and four additional one-year contract options. The
first million-card order under the subcontract was received by the Company in
June 2000, following the subcontract award and is included in the backlog
indicated in the previous paragraph.
Margins
The gross margin on product sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2001 was
40% compared with 42% for the prior-year period. The Company's revenues included
a greater percentage of read/write drives in the first quarter of fiscal 2001
than in the prior-year period. Read/write drives have a lower gross margin than
cards. This change in mix accounted for the decrease in gross margin percentage
even though both read/write drive margins and card margins increased
individually. Gross profit increased by $408,000 for the fiscal 2001 first
quarter compared with the first quarter of fiscal 2000. The gross margin on
sales of read/write drives as currently designed will be negligible through
March 31, 2001. However, for the three months ended June 30, 2000, read/write
drive gross profit increased by about $115,000 due to the efficiency of in-house
production and higher sales volume. Gross profit on cards increased
approximately $320,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2000, compared with
the same period last year, due to higher card sales volume and an increase in
production efficiency as compared with the first quarter of last year.
Income and Expenses
Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses (SG&A). SG&A expenses were
$1,028,000 for the fiscal 2001 first quarter compared with $1,004,000 for the
first quarter of fiscal 2000. The Company believes that SG&A expenses for fiscal
2001 will remain above fiscal 2000 levels, mainly due to increases in marketing
and patent amortization expenses.
-8-
<PAGE>
Research and Engineering Expenses (R&E). Research and engineering expenses
were $429,000 for the first quarter of fiscal 2001 compared with $214,000 for
the year-earlier period. Approximately 84% of the increase in R&E spending for
the fiscal 2001 first quarter is due to read/write drive manufacturing
engineering and product development. The Company anticipates that R&E expenses
will continue to increase during fiscal 2001, primarily due to optical card
read/write drive development.
Other Income and Expense. Total net other income for the first three
months of fiscal 2001 was $112,000, consisting of interest income. For last
year's first quarter, total net other income was $86,000, consisting of $87,000
interest income and $1,000 interest expense.
Income Taxes. For the first quarter of fiscal 2001, the Company recorded
an income tax benefit of $628,000 compared with $399,000 for last year's first
quarter. The income tax benefit for the fiscal 2001 first quarter included a
credit of $700,000 due to the change in the deferred tax asset (discussed
below), partially offset by $72,000 for state tax expense. The income tax
benefit for last year's first quarter included a credit of $416,000 due to the
change in deferred tax asset, partially offset by a $17,000 expense for
alternative minimum taxes payable.
The Company has a valuation allowance which reduces its deferred tax
asset. The Company believes that, more likely than not, at least a portion of
this income tax asset will be realized and, therefore, has reduced the valuation
allowance against it. The reduction in the valuation allowance reduces the
provision for income taxes on the statement of operations. Approximately $6
million of the valuation allowance is available to reduce future income tax
expense. Also, if realized, the total deferred tax asset remaining at June 30,
2000 of $12.9 million will reduce future income tax payments, but only $6
million of this amount will reduce future reported income tax expense. There are
timing differences between when certain items are included in book income and
when the same items are included on income tax returns. Therefore, tax payments
or credits often occur in different periods than when an income tax expense or
benefit is included in the statement of operations.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
As of June 30, 2000, the Company had cash, cash equivalents, and
short-term investments of $8,895,000, a current ratio of 5.4 to 1, and no
long-term debt.
Net cash provided by operating activities was $1,119,000 for the first
three months of fiscal 2001 compared with $264,000 for last year's first three
months. The increase in cash generated by operations for the fiscal 2001 first
quarter as compared with last year's first quarter is due mainly to the cash
invested in read/write drive inventory in last year's first quarter of $600,000.
The current level of revenues is sufficient to generate cash from operations
after expenses. Losses would occur if both of the Company's largest U.S.
government programs were to be delayed, canceled, or not extended and not be
replaced by other card orders or other sources of income.
The Company has not established a line of credit and has no current plans
to do so. The Company may negotiate a line of credit if and when it becomes
appropriate, although no assurance can be made that such financing would be
available, if needed.
As a result of the $1,440,000 profit recorded for the first quarter of
fiscal 2001, the Company's accumulated deficit was reduced to $14,836,000 and
stockholders' equity increased to $22,546,000.
Net cash used for investing activities was $1,675,000 for the first three
months of fiscal 2001 compared with $693,000 for last year's first three months.
For the first quarter of fiscal 2001, these amounts include purchases of
property and equipment (discussed below) of $430,000 and increases in patents
and other intangibles of $130,000. For the first quarter of fiscal 2000, net
cash used for investing activities included $648,000 for purchases of property
and equipment and increases in patents and other intangibles of $45,000.
-9-
<PAGE>
The Company considers all highly liquid investments, consisting primarily
of commercial paper with original maturities of three months or less, to be cash
equivalents. All investments with original maturities of more than three months
but less than one year, are classified as short-term investments. During fiscal
2000, the Company began investing in short-term investments, consisting
primarily of commercial paper. This resulted in $6,518,000 classified as
short-term investments at June 30, 2000 compared with $5,403,000 at March 31,
2000.
For optical memory card production, the Company added capital equipment
and leasehold improvements of approximately $347,000 during the first quarter of
fiscal 2001 compared with approximately $290,000 during the first quarter of
fiscal 2000. The Company's card production capacity reached 7 million cards per
year at March 31, 2000, and will be expanded during fiscal 2001 to approximately
11 million cards per year through an investment of about $3.2 million. The
Company plans to purchase additional production equipment in a series of steps
as optical memory card orders expand to justify production capacity increases,
to a rate of up to 25 million cards per year. In addition to investment used for
expansion, the Company will make additional capital expenditures for cost
savings, quality improvements, and other purposes. The Company believes that
during the next few years, capital expenditures will be a minimum of $1.5
million per year for card production equipment and automatic inspection
equipment.
In connection with read/write drive manufacturing and design, the Company
added capital equipment and leasehold improvements of approximately $87,000
during the first quarter of fiscal 2001 compared with $230,000 during the first
quarter of fiscal 2000. Additional capital investments will be made during
fiscal 2001.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $115,000 for the first
quarter of fiscal 2001 compared with zero for last year's first quarter.
Financing activities consisted of sales of common stock through stock plans.
On July 13, 2000, the Company announced a share repurchase program under
which up to 200,000 shares of common stock may be purchased by the Company from
time to time in Nasdaq Stock Market transactions in an aggregate amount not
exceeding $3 million.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Certain statements made in this report relating to plans, objectives, and
economic performance go beyond historical information and may provide an
indication of future results. To that extent, they are forward-looking
statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended, and each is subject to factors that could cause actual results
to differ from those in the forward-looking statement. The Company's business
plan depends upon the initiation and growth of new programs utilizing the
Company's card products and is subject to adverse economic and technological
developments. There can be no assurances that any new or existing VAR or
licensee company will be successful in its markets or that it will place
follow-on orders with the Company for additional quantities of cards and
systems. The Company's estimate of card deliveries to its primary customers
depends upon the issuance of corresponding order releases by such customers,
which have the right to withhold releases, to reduce the quantities released,
and to extend delivery dates. There is no assurance that the Company's
read/write drive assembly and design operations will result in lower cost drives
with advanced features. The ability of the Company to maintain a profitable
level of optical memory card sales is subject to risks and uncertainties,
including reliance on U.S. government business; customer diversification,
expansion, and lengthy sales cycles; the ability to economically produce optical
card read/write drives at lower cost and in greater quantity; sources of supply;
technological change; patent protection; competition; and the economic
configuration and operation of the Company's card manufacturing facility for
increased output levels. Such factors are described above, in the Company's
Report on Form 10-K, and in other documents filed by the Company from time to
time with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
