SIMTEK CORPORATION
ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS:
Simtek Corporation ("Simtek" or the "Company") recorded net product
sales of $1,633,348 for the third quarter of 1999 and $4,939,654 for the nine
months ended September 30, 1999 up from the $1,464,760 recorded for the third
quarter 1998 and the $4,806,039 for the nine months ended September 30, 1998.
The product sales were from the Company's 4 kilobit, 16 kilobit, 64 kilobit and
256 kilobit nvSRAM product families. The increase in net sales for the three and
nine months ended September 30, 1999 were primarily from sales of the Company's
nvSRAM products in the Far East returning to their historic levels with the
Company. Four distributors of the Company's nvSRAM products account for
approximately 62% of the Company's net sales for the third quarter 1999.
Products sold to distributors are re-sold to various end customers.
In the third quarter 1999, the Company purchased wafers built on 1.2
micron technology from Chartered Semiconductor Manufacturing Plc. of Singapore
("Chartered") to support sales of its high end 64 kilobit industrial and
military devices and 16 kilobit commercial devices. The Company also purchased
wafers built on 0.8 micron technology from Chartered. Sales of devices built
with both types of wafers purchased from Chartered accounted for approximately
97% of the Company's revenue for the third quarter 1999. The balance of the
Company's revenue for the third quarter 1999, was primarily from the sales of
commercial 64 kilobit and 256 kilobit finished units purchased from Zentrum
Mikroelektronik Dresden GmbH ("ZMD") in 1998.
The Company saw a decrease of approximately 11% and 8% in gross
margins, as a percent of sales, for the three months and nine months ended
September 30, 1999, respectively, as compared to the same periods in 1998. The
decrease in gross margin was due primarily to a decrease in average selling
prices associated with large production volume orders and a decrease in product
sales from the high end industrial and military products in the three months
ended September 30, 1999. During the third quarter, the Company expected
short-term demand for high-margin military products to be down due to cyclical
government contract requirements. The Company planned to more than compensate
for this with increased commercial shipments. Even though customer demand was
strong, the Company experienced a delay in manufacturing a significant number of
parts through its subcontractors, resulting in lower revenues than had been
forecast. Management believes these production issues have been resolved and
will allow the Company to catch up with growing customer demand in the fourth
quarter.
Total operating expenses experienced an approximate $9,000 increase
in the three months ended September 30, 1999 as compared to the three months
ended September 30, 1998. This increase was due primarily to a headcount
increase in sales and marketing. The nine months ended September 30, 1999 saw a
decrease in operating expenses of approximately $65,000 as compared to the same
period in 1998. Research and development saw the largest decrease of
approximately $80,000 This decrease was primarily due to the Company incurring
additional costs associated with the installation of its 64 kilobit and 256
kilobit products based on 0.8 micron technology into Chartered in 1998, the
Company did not have these costs in 1999. Administration showed a decrease of
approximately $33,000, which was primarily due to a decrease in headcount. Sales
and Marketing saw an increase of approximately $48,000. This increase was
primarily due to increased headcount.
The Company recorded a net loss of $105,577 and $146,543 for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 1999, respectively, as compared to a
net income of $17,383 and $195,692 for the same periods in 1998. The decrease in
net income was primarily due to decreased gross margins.
The change in cash flows from operating activities was primarily a
result of an increase in accounts receivable, a decrease in net change of
reserve accounts, a decrease in inventory and prepaid expenses and other and an
-7-
<PAGE>
SIMTEK CORPORATION
increase in accounts payable. The accounts receivable increase was due to an
increased level of billings at the end of the period which averages
approximately 45 days to receipt of payment. The decrease in reserve accounts
was due to a decrease in the reserve required for volume pricing to certain
customers and an increase in the warranty reserve. The warranty reserve is
calculated on a historical return of the Company's products, since the Company
began shipping large volumes of its product built on wafers purchased from
Chartered in November 1998, this reserve is at a higher percent than any of the
products the Company was shipping in the first nine months of 1998. The reserve
percentage will be evaluated after one year of shipping this product. The
decrease in inventory was due primarily to an increase in high volume production
orders that used up a substantial portion of the Company's inventory. The
decrease in prepaid expenses and other was because in the first nine months of
1998 the Company was required to prepay for any inventory purchased from ZMD
while it was in the transition of transferring production to Chartered. The
increase in accounts payable is a result of a change from the Company prepaying
for inventory in the first nine months of 1998 to currently paying its
subcontractors that build its products on 30 day terms.
The change in cash flows from investing activities was due to
purchases of equipment and furniture and an increase in restricted cash. The
purchases of equipment and furniture were related to the testing of the
Company's 64 kilobit and 256 kilobit products built on 0.8 micron technology
from wafers purchased from Chartered. The increase in restricted cash was used
as collateral for a letter of credit that one of the Company's suppliers
required the Company to obtain in the event of default on payments by the
Company. The change in cash flows from financing activities was due to the
exercise of stock options.
FUTURE RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The Company's ability to remain profitable will depend primarily on
its ability to continue reducing manufacturing costs and increasing net product
sales by improving the availability of existing products and by the introduction
of new products. In the third quarter 1999, the Company continued to ship
production orders of all its nvSRAM product families along with shipping smaller
quantities to customers interested in designing this product into its
applications. The Company is currently deciding which new or derivative product
it will develop next.
As of September 30, 1999, the Company's backlog of unshipped customer
orders expected to be filled within the next six months was approximately
$1,200,000. Orders are cancelable prior to 30 days before the scheduled shipping
date and, therefore, should not be used as a measure of future product sales.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
In July 1999, the Company increased its letter-of-credit, required by
one of its suppliers in the event of default on payment, from $250,000 to
$300,000. This letter-of-credit requires the Company to maintain a $300,000
certificate of deposit as collateral.
As of September 30, 1999, the Company continues to maintain a
$100,000 certificate of deposit as collateral for its $350,000 line of credit.
ZMD continues to own approximately 30% of the Company's Common Stock
and may not exceed 30% without approval of Simtek's Board of Directors.
The Company may require additional capital to fund production and
marketing of any new products it may develop. The Company does not have any
commitments for such additional capital as of the date of this report.

SIMTEK CORPORATION
YEAR 2000
The information provided below constitutes a "Year 2000 Readiness
Disclosure" for purposes of the Year 2000 Information and Readiness Disclosure
Act.
The Year 2000 ("Y2K") problem arises from the use of a two-digit field
to identify years in computer programs, e.g., 85=1985, and the assumption of a
single century, the 1900s. Any program so created may read or attempt to read,
"00" as the year 1900. There are two other related issues which could also, lead
to incorrect calculations or failure, such as (i) some systems' programming
assigns special meaning to certain dates, such as 9/9/99 and (ii) the year 2000
is a leap year. Accordingly, some computer hardware and software including
programs embedded within machinery and parts will need to be modified prior to
the year 2000 in order to remain functional. To address the issue, the Company
created an internal task force to assess its state of readiness for possible
"Year 2000" issues and take the necessary actions to ensure Year 2000
compliance. The task force has and continues to evaluate internal business
systems, production equipment, software and other components which affect the
Company's products, and the Company's vulnerability to possible "Year 2000"
exposures due to suppliers' and other third parties' lack of preparedness for
the year 2000.
The Company has assessed its production equipment and its information
system and does not anticipate any material Year 2000 issues from its equipment
or its own information system, databases or programs. Certain software packages
are currently being upgraded to compliant versions. The Company has two-thirds
of its internal business systems updated to Year 2000 and has defined the
requirements and anticipates having the balance updated by November 1999. The
costs incurred to date and expected to be incurred in the future are not
material to the Company's financial condition or result of operations. In
addition, the Company has contacted all of its suppliers and distributors with a
questionnaire regarding Year 2000 compliance and as of June 1999, all of its
suppliers and distributors have responded to the best of their knowledge that
they are Year 2000 compliant. The Company cannot currently predict the potential
effect of third parties' "Year 2000" issues on its business. The Company is
currently purchasing from Chartered 100% of the wafers from which the Company's
nvSRAM's are produced along with using Amkor for assembly of its products and
Integra Technologies for the final testing of its products. Chartered, Amkor and
Integra have all confirmed that to the best of their knowledge they are Year
2000 compliant, however, the Company may take steps to build additional
inventory at the end of the year to support approximately 60 days of product
shipments in case a problem should occur with any one of these key suppliers.
The Company believes that if one of its distributors should incur a Year 2000
problem, then the Company would be able to support the end customer directly
until the problem is corrected. In the worst-case scenario, if the Company, its
manufacturers or a majority of its key customers were to experience Year 2000
bugs, the Company may incur substantial losses and may not be able to continue
operating until the problems have been rectified.
The Company believes that its internal Year 2000 compliance project
will be completed in advance of the Year 2000 date transition and will not have
a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition or overall trends
in the results of operations. However, there can be no assurance that unexpected
delays or problems, including the failure to ensure Year 2000, compliance by
systems or products supplied to the Company by a third party, will not have an
adverse effect on the Company, its financial performance, or the competitiveness
or customer acceptance of its products.
