FIRST
QUARTER 1999
INTERIM REPORT


[END OF OUTSIDE COVER]
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

To Our Shareholders:

This report  covers the quarter  ended March 31, 1999.  Shareholders  who desire
further  disclosure  information  may request  the  following  reports  from the
Securities and Exchange Commission or from Simtek Corporation: Annual Reports on
Form 10-KSB and
Quarterly Reports on Form 10-QSB.

Simtek  Corporation  ("Simtek" or the  "Company")  recorded net product sales of
$1,368,637 for the first quarter of 1999 down from the  $1,539,331  recorded for
the first quarter 1998. The product sales were from the Company's 4 kilobit,  16
kilobit,  64 kilobit and 256 kilobit nvSRAM product  families.  The decrease was
due primarily to a decrease in sales from the Company's  high end industrial and
military products and a decrease of product demand in the European market.

The  Company saw a decrease of  approximately  7% in gross  margins in the first
quarter  1999 as  compared to the first  quarter  1998.  This  decrease in gross
margin  was due  primarily  to a  decrease  in  product  sales from the high end
industrial and military products.

Total other operating  expenses saw no material change in the first quarter 1999
as  compared  to  the  first  quarter  1998.  Research  and  Development  saw an
approximate  $13,000  increase  which was  primarily  due to costs  incurred for
future  product  development.  Administration  saw a decrease  of  approximately
$9,000  which  was due to a  headcount  decrease.  Sales  and  Marketing  saw an
approximate decrease of $5,000. This decrease was primarily the net effect of an
increase in headcount and a decrease in advertising.

The  Company  recorded  a net loss of  $68,387  in the first  quarter of 1999 as
compared to a net income of $125,021 for the first quarter of 1998. The decrease
was due to decreased product sales and gross margins.



                                                                    May 17, 1999

                                       2

The  Company's  ability to restore  profitability  will depend  primarily on its
ability to continue reducing  manufacturing costs and increase net product sales
by increasing the availability of existing products,  by the introduction of new
products and by expanding its customer  base.  In the first  quarter  1999,  the
Company  introduced its Real Time Clock  technology  which combines its nvSRAM's
with a miniature capacitor- powered  oscillator/counter that eliminates the need
for a back-up  battery  when  system  power is lost.  The  Company is  currently
deciding which new or derivative product it will develop next.

The following  Statements of Operations compare the three months ended March 31,
1999 with the three months ended March 31, 1998.  The Balance  Sheet is shown as
of March 31, 1999 and December 31, 1998.

We at Simtek appreciate your continued support.

Sincerely,



DOUGLAS MITCHELL
President and CEO
