SIMTEK ANNOUNCES FINANCIAL RESULTS
FOR THE THIRD QUARTER OF 2000
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colorado - November 13, 2000 -- Simtek Corporation, provider
of high performance nonvolatile memory and logic integrated circuits , announced
financial results for the third quarter and first nine months ending September
30, 2000.
Simtek Corporation ("Simtek" or the "Company") recorded net product sales of
$2,996,470 for the third quarter of 2000 and $9,220,772 for the nine months
ended September 30, 2000 up from the $1,782,544 recorded for the third quarter
1999 and the $5,443,359 for the nine months ended September 30, 1999.
During the quarter Simtek entered into agreements resulting in the issuing of
new Simtek common stock in exchange for financial consulting services and
intellectual property assets, both of which are designed to enhance Simtek's
position going forward. The cost for the financial consulting shares will be
expensed as the services are performed over the 12 month term of the contracts.
On September 29, 2000, the Company purchased technology assets generally
consisting of certain patents, trade secrets and trademarks from WebGear, Inc.
The Company issued 3,400,000 shares of its common stock and returned to WebGear
the 1,875,000 shares of WebGear common stock that Simtek acquired from WebGear
on June 16, 2000.
The Company recorded a net loss of $4,235,689 and $3,517,799 for the three and
nine months ended September 30, 2000, respectively, as compared to a net loss of
$250,429 and $454,091 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 1999,
respectively. The decrease was due to entries recorded for the issuance of stock
to WebGear and two investment bankers. Without the extraordinary charges of
approximately $4,385,000 in Simtek common stock for WebGear's intellectual
property assets and for the investment banker consulting services, Simtek would
have shown $191,823 and $909,713 in net income for the three and nine months
ended September 30, 2000, respectively. This is an increase of $442,252 and
$1,363,804 for the two periods, respectively, in the third quarter period that
traditionally slows marginally due to European manufacturing vacations. Simtek
has also been managing raw material availability with its primary wafer foundry
during this period of industry shortages to ensure increasing wafer availability
going forward into 2001. As of September 30, 2000 Simtek had open purchase
orders valued at approximately $6,058,000, which are scheduled to ship over a
six month period.
"Simtek is achieving approximately 75% revenue growth and an 8 fold increase in
operating income year over year while we are adding infrastructure designed to
provide the resources required to gain access to exciting new markets," stated
Douglas Mitchell, Simtek's president and CEO. "We have built a three tier
strategy, based on our memory, logic, and finally a wireless market direction.
Over the next couple of years we will grow our core businesses while integrating
their capabilities to capitalize on emerging markets. With all of this progress
we are also now positioned to expose the company to the investment community,
and we're very happy to have World Trade Partners and their affiliates on board
to help guide us through Wall Street over the next year."
