NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation. The consolidated financial statements included
herein have been prepared by Symmetricom, Inc., formerly known as Silicon
General, Inc. (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 that the disclosures which are made are adequate to make the
information presented not misleading, it is suggested that these consolidated
financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and
the notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
year ended June 30, 1993.
In the opinion of the management, these unaudited statements contain all
adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to
present fairly the financial position of the Company at December 31, 1993, the
results of operations for the three and six month periods then ended and cash
flows for the six month period then ended. The results of operations for the
periods presented are not necessarily indicative of those that may be expected
for the full year.
2. Fiscal Period. Fiscal years 1994 and 1993 consist of 53 and 52 weeks,
respectively. The fiscal 1994 and 1993 first quarters consist of fourteen and
thirteen weeks, respectively.
3. Inventories. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in,
first-out) or market. Inventories consist of:

Raw materials $ 9,784 $ 4,115
Work-in-progress 5,938 5,424
Finished goods 4,275 3,398
_________ ________
$ 19,997 $ 12,937
_________ ________
4. Acquisition. In August 1993, the Company acquired, in a purchase
transaction, substantially all the assets and certain liabilities of Navstar
Limited and its U.S. affiliate (collectively "Navstar") for $3,047,000. The
Company paid $2,012,000 in cash, $1,756,000 for technology, $36,000 for net
tangible assets and $220,000 for acquisition expenses. Net tangible assets
included substantially all tangible assets, $1,071,000, and assumed tangible
liabilities of $1,035,000. The operating results of Navstar have been
included in the consolidated statements of operations since the date of
acquisition and are not material in relation to consolidated operations.
Unaudited pro forma combined results of operations of the Company for the year
ended June 30, 1993, assuming the acquisition of Navstar had occurred on July
1, 1992, are as follows: net sales, $90,342,000, net earnings, $5,052,000, and
net earnings per common and common equivalent share, $.34.
5. Litigation. On January 11, 1994, a complaint was filed in the United
States District Court for the Northern District of California against the
Company, three of its officers and two unaffiliated parties, by one of the
Company's shareholders. The complaint requests that the court certify a class
of plaintiffs consisting of persons who purchased shares of the Company's
common stock during a specified period in 1993. The complaint alleges that
false and misleading statements made during that period artificially inflated
the price of the common stock in violation of federal securities laws. There
is no specific amount of damages requested in the complaint.
The Company and its officers believe that the complaint is entirely
without merit, and intend to vigorously defend against the action.
6. Reclassifications. Certain 1993 balances have been reclassified to
conform to the 1994 presentation.
Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Working capital increased by $2.5 million to $31.8 million at December
31, 1993 from $29.3 million at June 30, 1993, while the current ratio remained
at 3.3 to 1.0. During the same period, cash and cash equivalents decreased by
$5.4 million to $12.8 million from $18.2 million. The decrease was primarily
due to $1.6 million used for operating activities, $2.0 million used for the
acquisition of Navstar and $1.9 million used for capital expenditures. Net
cash used for operating activities included approximately $5.0 million for the
stockpiling of certain electronic components for Telecom Solutions due to the
possible shortage of epoxy resin used in the manufacture of these components.
At December 31, 1993, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under its $7.0
million bank line of credit.
The Company believes that cash and cash equivalents, funds generated
from operations and funds available under its bank line of credit will be
sufficient to satisfy working capital and capital equipment requirements over
the near term. At December 31, 1993, the Company had no material outstanding
commitments to purchase capital equipment.
Results of Operations
Net sales increased in the second quarter of fiscal 1994 by 16% to $25.0
million from $21.6 million in the second quarter of fiscal 1993, and in the
first half of fiscal 1994 by 14% to $49.0 million from $42.8 million in the
first half of fiscal 1993. The sales increases were principally due to higher
unit shipments in the Company's Linfinity Microelectronics Inc. (LMI)
operation and to the net sales of Navstar which was acquired by the Company in
August 1993.

* May not add due to rounding.
Telecom Solutions' net sales are highly dependent on obtaining large
orders of which there is no assurance. Furthermore, the timing of the receipt
and shipment of any such orders may result in a significant fluctuation of net
sales from quarter to quarter.
The gross profit margin, as a percentage of net sales, increased to 43%
in the second quarter and the first half of fiscal 1994 compared to 40% and
38% in the corresponding periods of fiscal 1993. The increase in the gross
profit margin percentage resulted primarily from higher unit volume and
improved manufacturing efficiencies in LMI which more than offset lower gross
margins in Telecom Solutions due to a shift to lower margin products and
decreased manufacturing efficiency. Future gross profit margins will largely
depend on product mix and manufacturing efficiencies.
Research and development expenses increased to $3.1 million and $6.1
million in the second quarter and first half of fiscal 1994, respectively,
representing increases of 63% and 65%, compared to $1.9 million and $3.7
million in the corresponding periods of fiscal 1993. The growth in research
and development expenses was due to increased development of new products and
enhancement of existing products in both Telecom Solutions and LMI.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $5.3 million
and $10.3 million in the second quarter and first half of fiscal 1994,
respectively, representing increases of 10% and 16%, compared to $4.8 million
and $8.9 million in the corresponding periods of fiscal 1993. The increases
were due to higher selling expenses associated with higher sales and increased
emphasis on marketing and sales support.
The Company's effective tax rate was 28% in the second quarter and first
half of fiscal 1994 compared to 19% in the corresponding periods of fiscal
1993 and 22% for all of fiscal 1993. The increase in the fiscal 1994 tax rate
was due to the Company's expectation that a lower percentage of the Company's
income will be derived from its Puerto Rico operation in fiscal 1994 than in
fiscal 1993. The provisions of the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993
(Act) are not expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial
position or its results of operations in fiscal 1994. However, certain
provisions of the Act may result in less favorable tax treatment for its
Puerto Rico operations in future years.
Net earnings in the second quarter of fiscal 1994 increased to $1.7
million or $.11 per share from $1.5 million or $.10 per share in the same
quarter of fiscal 1993. Net earnings in the first half of fiscal 1994
increased to $3.4 million or $.22 per share from $2.8 million or $.19 per
share in the same period of fiscal 1993.
The Company's future earnings and stock price may be subject to
significant volatility. Any shortfall in sales or earnings from levels
expected by securities analysts and investors could have an immediate and
significant adverse effect on the trading price of the Company's common stock.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Litigation
On January 11, 1994, a complaint was filed in the United States
District Court for the Northern District of California against the
Company, three of its officers and two unaffiliated parties, by one
of the Company's shareholders. The complaint requests that the
court certify a class of plaintiffs consisting of persons who
purchased shares of the Company's common stock during a specified
period in 1993. The complaint alleges that false and misleading

is no specific amount of damages requested in the complaint.
The Company and its officers believe that the complaint is entirely
without merit, and intend to vigorously defend against the action.
