Electronics for Imaging, Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation
The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of Electronics
for Imaging, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), as of and for the
interim period ended June 30, 2000, have been prepared on the same basis as the
audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December
31, 1999, contained in the Company's Annual Report to Stockholders. All periods
presented have been restated to include the financial results of the company
formerly known as Management Graphics Inc. that was acquired by the Company on
August 31, 1999 in a pooling of interests transaction as if the acquired entity
was a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company since inception. In the opinion of
management, the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of
the Company include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring
adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company
and the results of its operations and cash flows, in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles. The interim condensed consolidated financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial
statements referred to above and the notes thereto.
The preparation of the interim condensed consolidated financial statements in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles for such financial
statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets
and liabilities as of the date of the interim condensed consolidated financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
The interim results of the Company are subject to fluctuation. As a result, the
Company believes the results of operations for the interim periods ended June
30, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any
other interim period or the full year.
2. Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133 (SFAS 133) "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging". This statement establishes accounting and
reporting standards for derivative instruments and for hedging activities and
requires, among other things, that all derivatives be recognized as either
assets or liabilities in the statement of financial position and measure those
instruments at fair value. In June 1999, the FASB issued Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 137 (SFAS 137), "Accounting for Derivative Instruments
and Hedging Activities - Deferral of Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 133".
SFAS 133, as amended by SFAS 137, is effective for fiscal years beginning after
June 15, 2000. The Company is currently studying the provisions of the SFAS 133
and the potential impact it may have on its financial statements.

Options to purchase 4,594,649 and 249,300 shares of common stock as of
June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively, were excluded in the computations of
diluted earnings per share because the options' exercise prices were greater
than the average market price of the common stock for the periods then ended and
if included would have resulted in an antidilutive effect.
4. Stock Repurchase
In June 2000 the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $100
million of the Company's common stock. During the second quarter of 2000 the
Company repurchased 1,805,000 shares of common stock at an average price of
$24.44 per share. The Company's repurchases of shares of common stock are
recorded at cost, and are classified as "Treasury Stock", resulting in a
reduction of "Stockholders' Equity."

6. Legal Proceedings
The Company and certain principal officers and directors were named as
defendants in class action complaints filed in both the California Superior
Court of the County of San Mateo on December 15, 1997, and the United States
District Court for the Northern District of California on December 31, 1997 on
behalf of purchasers of the common stock of the Company during the class period
from April 10, 1997, through December 11, 1997. The complaints allege violations
of securities laws during the class period. Management believes the lawsuits are
without merit and that the outcome will not have a material adverse effect on
the financial position or overall trends in the results of operations of the
Company. However, due to the inherent uncertainties of litigation, the Company
cannot accurately predict the ultimate outcome of the litigation. Any
unfavorable outcome of the litigation could have an adverse impact on the
Company's financial condition and results of operations. In addition, the
Company is involved from time to time in litigation relating to claims arising
in the normal course of its business. The Company believes that the ultimate
resolution of such claims will not materially affect the Company's business or
financial condition.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the
section entitled "Management's Discussion and Analysis" and the audited
consolidated financial statements of Electronics for Imaging, Inc. (the
"Company") and related notes thereto contained in the Company's Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999. In August 1999 the Company
acquired Management Graphics Inc. The transaction has been accounted for as a
pooling of interests which requires that all prior period consolidated financial
statements be restated to include the combined results of operations, financial
position and cash flows. Results for the three and six months ended June 30,
2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the entire
fiscal year ended December 31, 2000. All assumptions, anticipations,
expectations and forecasts contained herein are forward-looking statements that
involve risks and uncertainties. The Company's actual results could differ
materially from those discussed here. For a more complete discussion of factors
which might impact the Company's results, please see the section entitled
"Factors that Could Adversely Affect Performance" below and in the Company's
1999 Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.
Results of Operations
Revenue
Revenue increased by 8% to $152.2 million in the three-month period ended June
30, 2000, compared to $140.7 million in the three-month period ended June 30,
1999. The corresponding unit volume increased by 4%. For the six months ended
June 30, 2000 revenue was $303.7 million compared to $264.9 million in the six
months ended June 30, 1999, an increase of 15%. The corresponding unit volume
increased 16%. The increase in revenue was primarily due to a change in product
mix, with the average sales price per unit increasing.
The Company's revenue is principally derived from three major categories. The
first category is made up of stand-alone servers which connect digital color
copiers with computer networks. This category includes the Fiery X2, X4, ZX and
Z4 products and accounted for a majority of the Company's revenue prior to 1998.
The second category consists of embedded desktop controllers, bundled color
solutions and chipsets primarily for the office market. The third category
consists of controllers for digital black and white products.
<TABLE>
The following is a breakdown of categories by revenue, both in terms of absolute
dollars and as a percentage (%) of total revenue. Also shown is volume as a
percentage (%) of total units shipped.

</TABLE>
The category of stand-alone servers connecting to digital color copiers made up
50% and 41% of total revenue and 21% and 12% of total unit volume for the three
month period ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. For the six months
ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, the same category made up 49% and 45% of total
revenue, respectively. The percentage of total unit volume was 21% and 14% for
the six-month periods ended June 30, 2000 and 1999. The increase in revenue was
primarily driven by shipments of the new EX2000 for the Xerox 2060, as well as
strong results in mid-range products for various OEM partners. The products in
this category continue to offer higher margins relative to the other product
lines.
The desktop, bundled and chipset category made up 16% of total revenue and 34%
of total unit volume in the second quarter of 2000. It made up 26% of total
revenue and 47% of total unit volume in the second quarter of 1999. For the six
months ended June 30, 2000 this category made up 19% of total revenue and 41% of
total unit volume as compared to 26% of revenues and 52% of volume for the same
six months in 1999. The drop in revenue from prior periods was primarily caused
by reductions in the laser printer and wide format printer products. The
products in this category, except for the chipset solutions, are generally
characterized by much higher unit volumes but lower unit prices and associated
margins than the Company has experienced in its more traditional stand-alone
server line of products. The chipset solutions can be characterized by lower
unit prices but significantly higher per unit margins compared to the
traditional stand-alone server line of products.
The digital black and white product category made up 24% of total revenue and
40% of total unit volume in the three-month period ended June 30, 2000. In the
three month period ended June 30, 1999, it made up 25% of total revenue and 41%
of total unit volume. For the six month period ended June 30, 2000 the black and
white category made up 21% of total revenue and 34% of total unit volume. The
same category accounted for 20% of total revenue and 34% of volume for the same
six-month period a year ago. Canon black-and-white solutions have consistently
accounted for the majority of revenue in this category. This product category
also can be characterized by much higher unit volumes and lower unit prices and
associated margins than the Company has experienced in its more traditional
stand-alone server line of products.
Spares, licensing revenue, film recorder sales and service, eBeam and other
miscellaneous sources generated 10% and 8% of total revenue for the three months
ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. For the six months ended June 30,
2000 and 1999, this category had 11% and 9% of total revenue, respectively. As a
percentage of total unit volume this category represented 5% for the three
months ended June 30, 2000 and 4% for the six months ended June 30, 2000. The
volumes in 1999 for this category were less than 1%.
To the extent any of these categories do not grow over time in absolute terms,
or if the Company is not able to meet demand for higher unit volumes, it could
have a material adverse effect on the Company's operating results. There can be
no assurance that any new products for 2000 will be qualified by the OEMs, or
that they will successfully compete, or be accepted by the market, or otherwise
be able to effectively replace the volume of revenue and/or income from the
older products.
The Company also believes that in addition to the factors described above, price
reductions for all of its products will affect revenues in the future. The
Company has made and may in the future make price reductions for its products.
Depending upon the price-elasticity of demand for the Company's products, the
pricing and quality of competitive products, and other economic and competitive
conditions, such price reductions may have an adverse
10
<PAGE>
impact on the Company's revenues and profits. If the Company is not able to
compensate for lower gross margins that result from price reductions with an
increased volume of sales, its results of operations could be adversely
affected. In addition, if the product mix becomes weighted with lower gross
margin products results of operations may be adversely affected.

The Company saw a decrease in shipments to the Rest of World region
(predominantly represented by the Southeast Asian countries) and Japan for the
second quarter of 2000 compared to the same period a year ago. The drop in the
Rest of World shipments was the result of product transitions with key partners
in these regions as well as market conditions, which favor lower priced
products. The product transitions are primarily in laser printer products. In
addition, some first quarter inventory build-up was experienced which
contributed to reduced second quarter orders as our partners launched new
products. Japan experienced a decrease of 15% for both the three month and six
month periods ended June 30, 2000 compared to the same periods in 1999, which
the Company believes is due to difficult economic conditions that primarily
changed the product mix, shifting more sales to lower priced units. Changes in
worldwide economic conditions may have an adverse impact on the Company's
results of operations in the future.
As shipments to some of the Company's OEM partners are made to centralized
purchasing and manufacturing locations which in turn sell through to other
locations, the Company believes that export sales of its products into each
region may differ from what is reported because accurate data is difficult to
obtain. The Company expects that export sales will continue to represent a
significant portion of its total revenue.
Substantially all of the revenue for the last three years was attributable to
sales of products through the Company's OEM channels with such partners as
Canon, Encad, Epson, Fuji-Xerox, Hewlett-Packard, Kodak/Danka Business Systems,
Konica, Lanier, Minolta, Oce, Ricoh, Sharp, Toshiba, Xerox and others. During
2000, the Company has continued to work on both increasing the number of OEM
partners, and expanding the size of existing relationships with OEM partners.
The Company relied on three OEM customers, Canon, Xerox and Ricoh for 71 % of
its aggregate revenue for the second quarter of 2000 and 69% of its revenue for
the six months ended June 30, 2000. For the second quarter of 1999 and the six
months ended June 30, 1999 Canon and Xerox accounted for 64% and 45% of its
revenue, respectively. In the event that any of these OEM relationships are
scaled back or discontinued, the Company may experience a significant negative
impact on its consolidated financial position and results of operations. In
addition, no assurance can be given that the Company's relationships with these
OEM partners will continue.
The Company continues to work on the development of products utilizing both the
Fiery architecture and other products and services and intends to continue to
introduce new generations of Fiery products and other new product lines and
services with current and new OEM's in 2000 and beyond. No assurance can be
given that the introduction or market acceptance of new, current or future
products or services will be successful.
Cost of Revenue
Fiery color servers as well as embedded desktop controllers and digital black
and white products are manufactured by third-party manufacturers who purchase
most of the necessary components. The Company directly sources processors,
memory, certain ASICs, and software licensed from various sources, including
PostScript interpreter software, which the Company licenses from Adobe Systems,
Inc.

Gross Margins
The Company's gross margin was 48% and 49% for the three months ended June 30,
2000 and 1999, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 the
gross margin was 48%. The decrease in the gross margin for the three month
period was attributable to higher component costs, partially offset by volume
driven economies of scale as well as increased outsourcing of manufacturing
operations to lower cost subcontract manufacturers.
The Company expects that sales of products with relatively lower margins may
increase as a percentage of revenue. Such products include embedded products for
both desktop printers and copiers, embedded controllers for black-and-white
copiers and older products for which prices are reduced during product
transitions. If such sales increase as a percentage of the Company's revenue,
gross margins may decline. In addition, the Company expects to be subject to
pressures to reduce prices, and as a result, gross margins for all of its
products may be lower and therefore, the Company's ability to maintain current
gross margins may not continue.
In general, the Company believes that gross margin will continue to be impacted
by a variety of factors. These factors include the market prices that can be
achieved on the Company's current and future products, the availability and
pricing of key components (including DRAM, processors and Postscript interpreter
software), third party manufacturing costs, product documentation costs,
product, channel and geographic mix, the success of the Company's product
transitions and new products, competition, and general economic conditions in
the United States and abroad. Consequently, the Company anticipates gross
margins will fluctuate from period to period.
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses increased by 18% in the period ended June 30, 2000 compared
to the three-month period ended June 30, 1999. Operating expenses as a
percentage of revenue amounted to 29% and 27% for the three-month periods ended
June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The increase in operating expenses was
primarily related to an increase in the number of employees required to support
the development and introduction of new products needed for continued growth.
The number of full-time employees increased by 102 people from June 1999 to June
2000. Operating expenses increased by 16% in the six-month period ended June 30,
2000 compared to the six-month period ended June 30, 1999. Operating expenses as
a percentage of revenue were 28% for both the six-month period ended June 30,
2000 and the six-month period ended June 30, 1999.
Operating expenses for the six month period ended June 30, 1999 included
non-recurring expenses in connection with the Company's move to a new central
facility in Foster City, California. Total moving costs amounted to $1.8 million
of which approximately $1.6 million related to operating expenses. Excluding the
moving costs, operating expenses as a percentage of revenue for the six months
ended June 30, 1999 amounted to 27%.
The Company anticipates that operating expenses will continue to grow and may
increase both in absolute dollars and as a percentage of revenue.
The components of operating expenses are detailed below.
Research and Development
Expenses for research and development consist primarily of personnel
expenses and, to a lesser extent, consulting, depreciation and costs
of prototype materials. Research and development expenses were $22.2
million or 15% of revenue for the three-month period ended June 30,
2000 compared to $18.2 million or 13% of revenue for the three-month
period ended June 30, 1999. Research and development costs increased
19%, from $35.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999 to
$42.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2000. The increase
for the three and six month periods from the prior year was mainly
due to additional headcount and component expenses for prototype
development. The Company believes that the development of new
products and the enhancement of existing products are essential to
its continued success, and intends to continue to devote substantial
resources to research and new product development efforts.
Accordingly, the Company expects that its research and development
expenses may continue to increase in absolute dollars and also as a
percentage of revenue.

Sales and Marketing
Sales and marketing expenses include personnel expenses, costs for
trade shows, marketing programs and promotional materials, sales
commissions, travel and entertainment expenses, depreciation, and
costs associated with sales offices in the United States, Europe,
Japan and other locations around the world. Sales and marketing
expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2000 were $15.9 million
or 10% of revenue compared to $14.6 million or 10% of revenue for the
three months ended June 30, 1999. For the six months ended June 30,
2000 sales and marketing expenses were $32.3 million or 11% of
revenue, while for the six months ended June 30, 1999 they were $29.4
million, or 11% of revenue.
The Company expects that its sales and marketing expenses may
increase in absolute dollars and possibly also as a percentage of
revenue as it continues to actively promote its products, launch new
products and services and continue to build its sales and marketing
organization, particularly in Europe and Asia Pacific, including
Japan. This increase might not proportionally increase with increases
in volume if the Company's sales continue to gravitate toward desktop
and embedded products, which require less support from the Company as
the OEM partners take over this role.
General and Administrative
General and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel
expenses and, to a lesser extent, depreciation and facility costs,
professional fees and other costs associated with public companies.
General and administrative expenses were $6.4 million or 4% of
revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2000, compared to $4.8
million or 3% of revenue for the three months ended June 30, 1999.
For the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, general and
administrative expenses were $11.4 million or 4% of revenue and $9.0
million or 3% of revenue, respectively. The increase in both absolute
dollars and as a percentage of revenue result from increased
headcount to support the needs of the Company's growing operations,
as well as increased investments in business development initiatives,
legal activities associated with registering and defending our
intellectual property and actions related to the Company's new
Netherlands Customer Service Center. The Company expects that its
general and administrative expenses may continue to increase in
absolute dollars and possibly also as a percentage of revenue in
order to support the Company's efforts to grow its business.
Other Income
Other income relates mainly to interest income and expense, and gains and losses
on foreign currency transactions. Other income of $5.6 million for the
three-month period ended June 30, 2000 increased by 41% from $4.0 million for
the three-month period ended June 30, 1999. For the six months ended June 30,
2000 other income was $11.1 million; a 49% increase from the $7.5 million
reported for the six months ended June 30, 1999. The increase in other income is
primarily driven by the increased cash flow seen over the past several quarters
and the correspondingly higher short-term investment balances and higher market
interest rates. Other income may be reduced in future quarters as the Company
utilizes funds for repurchasing shares, thereby decreasing cash balances
available to earn interest income.
Income Taxes
The Company's effective tax rate was 33% for the three and six months ended June
30, 2000 and 34% for the three and six months ended June 30, 1999. In each of
these periods, the Company benefited from tax-exempt interest income, foreign
sales, and the utilization of the research and development credits in achieving
a consolidated effective tax rate lower than that prescribed by the respective
Federal and State taxing authorities. The Company currently anticipates that the
tax rate for the remainder of 2000 will remain approximately 33%.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments decreased by $14.0 million to
$456.3 million as of June 30, 2000, from $470.3 million as of December 31,1999.
The decrease in cash resulted from the Company's stock repurchase program begun
during the second quarter of 2000 as well as the payments of estimated income
taxes. Working capital increased by $25.5 million to $513.1 million as of June
30, 2000, up from $487.6 million as of December 31, 1999. These increases are
primarily the result of net income, changes of balance sheet components and the
exercise of employee stock options.
Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2000
was $25.4 million. The Company has continued to invest cash in short-term
investments, mainly municipal securities. Purchases in excess of sales of
short-term investments were $68.7 million for the six months ended June 30,
2000. The Company's capital expenditures generally consist of investments in
computers and related peripheral equipment and office furniture for use in the
Company's operations. The Company purchased approximately $7.3 million of such
equipment and furniture during the six months ended June 30, 2000.
In 1997, the Company began development of a corporate campus on a 35-acre parcel
of land in Foster City, California. During 1997 and 1998 the Company spent
approximately $27.3 million on the land and associated improvement costs. In
addition to purchasing the land, the Company entered into an agreement ("1997
Lease") to lease a ten-story 295,000 square foot building to be constructed on
the site. The lessor of the building funded $56.8 million for the construction
of the building. In July 1999 the Company completed construction of the building
and began making rent payments. Also in conjunction with the lease, the Company
has entered into a separate ground lease with the lessor of the building for
approximately 35 years.
In December 1999 the Company entered into a second agreement ("1999 Lease") to
lease a maximum of 543,000 square feet of additional facilities, to be
constructed adjacent to the first building discussed above. The lessor has
committed to fund a maximum of $137.0 million for the construction of the
facilities, with the portion of the committed amount actually used for
construction to be determined by the Company. Rent obligations for the building
will bear a direct relationship to the carrying cost of the commitments drawn
down. Construction of the facilities began in January 2000 and is scheduled for
completion over the next 36 months. In connection with the lease, the Company
entered into a lease of the related parcels of land in Foster City to the lessor
of the buildings at a nominal rate and for a term of 30 years. If the Company
does not renew the building lease, the ground lease converts to a market rate.
Both leases have an initial term of seven years, with options to renew subject
to certain conditions. The Company may, at its option, purchase the facilities
during or at the end of the term of the lease for the amount expended by the
respective lessor to construct the facilities. The Company has guaranteed to the
lessors a residual value associated with the buildings equal to 82% of the their
funding. The Company may be liable to the lessor for the amount of the residual
guarantee if it either defaults on a covenant, fails to renew the lease, or does
not purchase or locate a purchaser for the leased building at the end of the
lease term. During the term of the leases the Company must maintain a minimum
tangible net worth. In addition, the Company has pledged certain marketable
securities, which is in proportion to the amount drawn under each lease. Under
the 1997 Lease, the pledged collateral ($70.8 million at June 30, 2000) may be
withdrawn at any time, but withdrawal results in an increase to the lease rate
and the imposition of additional financial covenant restrictions. The funds
pledged under the 1999 Lease ($2.9 million at June 30, 2000) may be invested by
the Company in certain securities, however the funds are restricted as to
withdrawal at all times.
Net cash used in financing activities was $33.3 million. The common stock
repurchase program, begun in June 2000, used cash funds of $44.1 million during
the second quarter of 2000. The exercises of common stock options net of the
associated tax benefits provided $11.5 million in cash. The Company expects to
complete the $100 million stock repurchase authorized by the Board of Directors
in the third quarter of 2000.
The Company's inventory consists primarily of memory subsystems, processors and
ASICs, which are sold to third party contract manufacturers responsible for
manufacturing substantially all of the Company's products. The Company believes
that, should the services of any of these contract manufacturers become
unavailable, a significant negative impact on the Company's consolidated
financial position and results of operations could result. The Company is also
reliant on several sole-source suppliers for certain key components and could
experience a further
14
<PAGE>
significant negative impact on its consolidated financial position and results
of operations if such supply were reduced or not available. Should the Company
decide to purchase components and do its own manufacturing, or should it become
necessary for the Company to purchase and sell components other than the
processors, ASICs or memory subsystems for its contract manufacturers, inventory
balances would increase significantly, thereby reducing the Company's available
cash resources.
The Company, along with its directors and certain officers and employees, has
been named in class action lawsuits filed in both the San Mateo County Superior
Court and the United States District Court for the Northern District of
California. The lawsuits are all related to the precipitous decline in the
trading price of the Company's stock that occurred in December 1997. The Company
believes the lawsuits are without merit and is contesting them vigorously, but
there can be no assurance that if damages are ultimately awarded against the
Company, the litigation will not adversely affect the Company's results of
operations.
The Company believes that its existing capital resources, together with cash
generated from continuing operations will be sufficient to fund its operations
and meet capital requirements through at least 2001.
Euro Assessment
Eleven of the fifteen member countries of the European Union have established
fixed conversion rates between their existing sovereign currencies and the euro
and have adopted the euro as a common currency as of January 1, 1999. The euro
is trading on currency exchanges and is available for non-cash transactions. The
conversion to the euro is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the
operating results of the Company as the Company predominantly invoices in US
dollars. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the reporting
requirements in the respective countries and the related system, legal and
taxation requirements. The Company expects that required modifications will be
made on a timely basis and that such modifications will not have a material
adverse impact on the Company's operating results. There can be no assurance;
however, the Company will be able to complete such modifications to comply with
euro requirements, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's
operating results.
Factors That Could Adversely Affect Performance
Our performance may be adversely affected by the following factors:
We rely on sales to a relatively small number of OEM partners, and the loss of
any of these customers could substantially decrease our revenues
Because we sell our products primarily to our OEM partners, we rely on high
sales volumes to a relatively small number of customers. We expect that we will
continue to depend on these OEM partners for a significant portion of our
revenues. If we lose an important OEM or we are unable to recruit additional
OEMs, our revenues may be materially and adversely affected. We cannot assure
you that our major customers will continue to purchase our products at current
levels or that they will continue to purchase our products at all. In addition,
our results of operations could be adversely affected by a decline in demand for
copiers or laser printers, other factors affecting our major customers, in
particular, or the computer industry in general.
We rely upon our OEM partners to develop new products, applications and product
enhancements in a timely and cost-effective manner. Our continued success
depends upon the ability of these OEMs to meet changing customer needs and
respond to emerging industry standards and other technological changes. However,
we cannot assure you that our OEMs will effectively meet these technological
challenges. These OEMs, who are not within our control, may incorporate into
their products the technologies of other companies in addition to, or instead of
our products. These OEMs may introduce and support products that are not
compatible with our products. We rely on these OEMs to market our products with
their products, and if these OEMs do not effectively market our products our
sales revenue may be materially and adversely affected. With the exception of
certain minimum purchase obligations, these OEMs are not obligated to purchase
products from us. We cannot assure you that our OEMs will continue to carry our
products.
15
<PAGE>
Our OEMs work closely with us to develop products that are specific to each
OEM's copiers and printers. For many of the products we are developing, we need
to coordinate development, quality testing, marketing and other tasks with our
OEMs. We cannot control our OEMs' development efforts and coordinating with our
OEMs may cause delays that we cannot manage by ourselves. In addition, our sales
revenue and results of operations may be adversely affected if we cannot meet
our OEM's product needs for their specific copiers and printers, as well as
successfully manage the additional engineering and support effort and other
risks associated with such a wide range of products. Any delays in our OEM's
ability to design and market a product with our assistance may have a
significant impact on our revenues and results of operations.
We are pursuing, and will continue to pursue, the business of additional copier
and printer OEMs. However, because there are a limited number of OEMs producing
copiers and printers in sufficient volume to be attractive customers for us, we
expect that customer concentration will continue to be a risk.
If we are unable to develop new products, or execute product introductions on a
timely basis, our future revenue and operating results may be harmed.
Our operating results will depend to a significant extent on continual
improvement of existing technologies and rapid innovation of new products and
technologies. Our success depends not only on our ability to predict future
requirements, but also on both our and our OEM's ability to develop and
introduce new products that successfully address customer needs. Any delays in
the launch or availability of new products we are planning could harm our
financial results. During transitions from existing products to new products,
customers may delay or cancel orders for existing products. Our results of
operations may be adversely affected if we cannot successfully manage product
transitions or provide adequate availability of products after they have been
introduced.
In this environment, we must continue to make significant investments in
research and development in order to enhance performance and functionality of
our products, including product lines different than our Fiery servers and
embedded controllers. We cannot assure you that we will successfully identify
new product opportunities, develop and introduce new products to market in a
timely manner, and achieve market acceptance of our products. Also, if we decide
to develop new products, our research and development expenses may increase in
the short term without a corresponding increase in revenue. Finally, we cannot
assure you those products and technologies developed by others will not render
our products or technologies obsolete or noncompetitive.
We license software used in most of our products from Adobe Systems
Incorporated, and the loss of this license would prevent us from shipping these
products
Under our license agreements with Adobe, a separate license must be granted from
Adobe to us for each type of copier or printer used with a Fiery Server or
Controller. If Adobe does not grant us such licenses or approvals, if the Adobe
license agreements are terminated, or if our relationship with Adobe is
otherwise impaired, our financial condition and results of operations may be
harmed. To date, we have successfully obtained licenses to use Adobe's
PostScript(TM) software for our products, where required. However, we cannot be
assured that Adobe will continue to grant future licenses to Adobe
PostScript(TM) software on reasonable terms, in a timely manner, or at all. We
are required to submit new products to Adobe for testing prior to shipping. We
cannot be assured that Adobe will continue to give us the quality assurance
approvals we are required to obtain from Adobe for the Adobe licenses.
If the demand for products that enable printing of digital data decreases, our
sales revenue may decrease
Our products are primarily targeted at enabling the printing of digital data. If
demand for this service declines, or if the demand for the OEM's specific
printers or copiers that our products are designed for declines, our sales
revenue may be adversely affected. Although demand for networked printers and
copiers has increased in recent years, we cannot assure you that such demand
will continue, nor can we control whether the demand will continue for the
specific OEM printers and copiers that utilize our products. We believe that
demand for our products may also be affected by a variety of economic conditions
and considerations, and we cannot assure you that demand for our products will
continue at current levels.
16
<PAGE>
If we enter new markets or distribution channels this could result in delayed
revenues or higher operating expenses
We continue to explore opportunities to develop product lines different from our
Fiery servers and embedded controllers, such as our new line of Velocity
software products and EFI Professional Services. We expect to invest funds to
develop distribution and marketing channels for new products and services. We do
not know if we will be successful in developing these channels or whether the
market will accept any of our new products or services. In addition, even if we
are able to introduce new products or services, these products and services may
adversely impact the Company's operating results.
We face competition from other suppliers as well as our own OEM customers, and
if we are not able to compete successfully then our business may be harmed
Our industry is highly competitive and is characterized by rapid technological
changes. We compete against a number of other suppliers of imaging products. We
cannot assure you that products or technologies developed by competing suppliers
will not render our products or technologies obsolete or noncompetitive.
While many of our OEM's sell our products on an exclusive basis, we do not have
any formal agreements that prevent the OEMs from offering alternative products.
If an OEM offers products from alternative suppliers our market share could
decrease, which could reduce our revenue and negatively affect our financial
results.
Our OEM partners may themselves internally develop and supply products similar
to our current products. These OEMs may be able to develop similar products that
are compatible with their own products more quickly than we can. These OEMs may
choose to market their own products, even if these products are technologically
inferior, have lower performance or cost more. We cannot assure you that we will
be able to continue to successfully compete against similar products developed
internally by our OEMs or against their financial and other resources. If we
cannot compete successfully against our OEMs' internally developed products, our
business may be harmed.
If we are not able to hire and retain skilled employees, we may not be able to
develop products or meet demand for our products in a timely fashion
We depend upon skilled employees, such as software and hardware engineers,
quality assurance engineers and other technical professionals. We are located in
the Silicon Valley where competition among companies to hire engineering and
technical professionals is intense. It is difficult for us to locate and hire
qualified engineers and technical professionals and for us to retain these
people. There are many technology companies located nearby that may try to hire
our employees. The movement of our stock price may also impact our ability to
hire and retain employees. If we do not offer competitive compensation, we may
not be able to recruit or retain employees. If we cannot successfully hire and
retain employees, we may not be able to develop products timely or to meet
demand for our products in a timely fashion and our results of operations may be
adversely impacted.
Our operating results may fluctuate based upon many factors, which could
adversely affect our stock price
We expect our stock price to vary with our operating results and, consequently,
adverse fluctuations could adversely affect our stock price. Operating results
may fluctuate due to:
o demand for our products;
o success and timing of new product introductions;
o our OEM's ability to get new products to market in a timely fashion;
o changes in interest rates and availability of bank or financing credit
to consumers of digital copiers and printers;
o price reductions by us and our competitors;
o delay, cancellation or rescheduling of orders;
o product performance;
o availability of key components, including possible delays in the
deliveries from suppliers;
o the status of our relationships with our OEM partners;
17
<PAGE>
o the performance of third-party manufacturers;
o the status of our relationships with our key suppliers;
o potential excess or shortage of skilled employees; and
o general economic conditions.
Many of our products, and the related OEM copiers and printers, are purchased
utilizing lease contracts or bank financing. If prospective purchasers of
digital copiers and printers are unable to obtain credit, or interest rate
changes make credit terms undesirable, this may significantly reduce the demand
for digital copiers and printers, negatively impacting our revenues and
operating results.
Typically we do not have long-term volume purchase contracts with our customers,
and a substantial portion of our backlog is scheduled for delivery within 90
days or less. Our customers may cancel orders and change volume levels or
delivery times for product they have ordered from us without penalty. However, a
significant portion of our operating expenses are fixed in advance, and we plan
these expenditures based on the sales forecasts from our OEM customers and
product development programs. If we were unable to adjust our operating expenses
in response to a shortfall in our sales, it could harm our quarterly financial
results.
We attempt to hire additional employees to match growth in projected demand for
our products. If we project a higher demand than materializes, we will hire too
many employees and incur expenses that we need not have incurred and our
operating margins may be lower. If we project a lower demand than materializes,
we will hire too few employees, we may not be able to meet demand for our
products and our sales revenue may be lower. If we cannot successfully manage
our growth, our results of operations may be harmed.
The value of our investment portfolio will decrease if interest rates increase
We have an investment portfolio of mainly fixed income securities classified as
available-for-sale securities. As a result, our investment portfolio is subject
to interest rate risk and will fall in value if market interest rates increase.
We attempt to limit this exposure to interest rate risk by investing primarily
in short-term securities. We may be unable to successfully limit our risk to
interest rate fluctuations and this may cause our investment portfolio to
decrease in value.
Our stock price has been and may continue to be volatile
Our common stock, and the stock market generally, have from time to time
experienced significant price and volume fluctuations. The market prices for
securities of technology companies have been especially volatile, and
fluctuations in the stock market are often unrelated to the operating
performance of particular companies. These broad market fluctuations may
adversely affect the market price of our common stock. Our common stock price
may also be affected by the factors discussed above in this section as well as:
o Fluctuations in our results of operations, revenues or earnings or
those of our competitors;
o Failure of such results of operations, revenues or earnings to meet the
expectations of stock market analysts and investors;
o Changes in stock market analysts' recommendations regarding us;
o Real or perceived technological advances by our competitors;
o Political or economic instability in regions where our products are
sold or used; and
o General market and economic conditions.
We face risks from our international operations and from currency fluctuations
Approximately 53% of our revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2000 and
1999, came from sales outside North America, primarily to Europe and Japan. We
expect that sales to international destinations will continue to be a
significant portion of our total revenue. You should be aware that we are
subject to certain risks because of our international operations. These risks
include the regulatory requirements of foreign governments which may apply to
our products, as well as requirements for export licenses which may be required
for the export of certain technologies. The necessary export licenses may be
delayed or difficult to obtain, which could cause a delay in our
18
<PAGE>
international sales and hurt our product revenue. Other risks include trade
protection measures, natural disasters, and political or economic conditions in
a specific country or region.
We believe that economic conditions in other parts of the world, such as Brazil,
may also limit demand for our products. The move to a single European currency,
the euro, and the resulting central bank management of interest rates to
maintain fixed currency exchange rates among the member nations may lead to
economic conditions which adversely impact sales of our products.
Given the significance of our export sales to our total product revenue, we face
a continuing risk from the strengthening of the U.S. dollar versus the Japanese
yen, the euro and other major European currencies, and numerous Southeast Asian
currencies, which could cause lower unit demand and the necessity that we lower
average selling prices for our products because of the reduced strength of local
currencies. Either of these events could harm our revenues and gross margin.
Although we typically invoice our customers in U.S. dollars, when we do invoice
our customers in local currencies, our cash flows and earnings are exposed to
fluctuations in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates between the
currency of the invoice and the U.S. dollar. We attempt to limit or hedge these
exposures through operational strategies and financial market instruments where
we consider it appropriate. To date we have mostly used forward contracts to
reduce our risk from interest rate and currency fluctuations. However, our
efforts to reduce the risk from our international operations and from
fluctuations in foreign currencies or interest rates may not be successful,
which would harm our financial condition and operating results.
We may be unable to adequately protect our proprietary information
We rely on a combination of copyright, patent and trade secret protection,
nondisclosure agreements, and licensing and cross-licensing arrangements to
establish and protect our proprietary rights. Any failure to adequately protect
our proprietary information could harm our financial condition and operating
results. We cannot be certain that any patents that may be issued to us, or
which we license from third parties, or any other of our proprietary rights will
not be challenged, invalidated or circumvented. In addition, we cannot be
certain that any rights granted to us under any patents, licenses or other
proprietary rights will provide adequate protection of our proprietary
information.
We face risks from third party claims of infringement and potential litigation
Third parties may claim that our products infringe, or may infringe, their
proprietary rights. Such claims could result in lengthy and expensive
litigation. Such claims and any related litigation, whether or not we are
successful in the litigation, could result in substantial costs and diversion of
our resources. Although we may seek licenses from third parties covering
intellectual property that we are allegedly infringing, we cannot guarantee that
any such licenses could be obtained on acceptable terms, if at all.
Our products may contain defects that are not discovered until after shipping.
Our products consist of hardware and software developed by ourselves and others.
Our products may contain undetected errors when first introduced or when new
versions are released, and we have in the past discovered software and hardware
errors in certain of our new products after their introduction. There can be no
assurance that errors would not be found in new versions of our products after
commencement of commercial shipments, or that any such errors would not result
in a loss or delay in market acceptance and thus harm our reputation and
revenues. In addition, errors in our products (including errors in licensed
third party software) detected prior to new product releases could result in
delays in the introduction of new products and incurring of additional expense,
which could harm our operating results.
Seasonal purchasing patterns of our OEM customers have historically caused lower
fourth quarter revenue, which may negatively impact the stock price
Our results of operations have typically followed a seasonal pattern reflecting
the buying patterns of our large OEM customers. In the past, our fiscal fourth
quarter results have been adversely affected because some or all of our OEM
customers wanted to decrease, or otherwise delay, fourth quarter orders. In
addition, the first fiscal quarter
19
<PAGE>
traditionally has been a weaker quarter because our OEM partners focus on
training of their sales forces. The primary reasons for this seasonal pattern
are:
o Fluctuation in demand for our products from our OEM partners, who have
historically sought to minimize year-end inventory investment
(including the reduction in demand following introductory "channel
fill" purchases). Fluctuation in demand is also caused by timing of new
product releases and training by our OEM partners; and
o The fact that our OEM partners have achieved their yearly sales targets
and consequently delayed further purchases into the next fiscal year,
and the fact that we do not know when our partners reach these sales
targets as they generally do not share them with us.
As a result of these factors, we believe that period to period comparisons of
our operating results are not meaningful, and you should not rely on such
comparisons to predict our future performance. We anticipate that future
operating results may fluctuate significantly due to this seasonal demand
pattern.
We may make future acquisitions and acquisitions involve numerous financial
risks
We seek to develop new technologies and products from both internal and external
sources. As part of this effort, we may make acquisitions of, or significant
investments in, other companies. Acquisitions involve numerous risks, including
the following:
o Difficulties in integration of operations, technologies, or products;
o Risks of entering markets in which we have little or no prior
experience, or entering markets where competitors have stronger market
positions;
o Possible write-downs of impaired assets; and
o Potential loss of key employees of the acquired company.
Mergers and acquisitions of companies are inherently risky, and we cannot assure
you that our previous or future acquisitions will be successful and will not
harm our business, operating results, financial condition, or stock price.
The location and concentration of our facilities subjects us to the risk of
earthquakes, floods or other natural disasters
Our corporate headquarters, including most of our research and development
facilities and manufacturing operations, are located in the San Francisco Bay
Area of Northern California, an area known for seismic activity. This area has
also experienced flooding in the past. In addition, many of the components
necessary to supply our products are purchased from suppliers subject to risk
from natural disasters, based in areas including the San Francisco Bay Area,
Taiwan, and Japan. A significant natural disaster, such as an earthquake or a
flood, could harm our business, financial condition, and operating results.
We are dependent on sub-contractors to manufacture and deliver products to our
customers
We subcontract with other companies to manufacture our products. We are totally
reliant on the ability of our subcontractors to produce products sold to
customers. While we closely monitor our subcontractors performance we cannot
assure you that such subcontractors will continue to perform for us as well as
they have in the past. We also cannot assure you that difficulties experienced
by our subcontractors (such as interruptions in a subcontractor's ability to
make or ship our products, or fix quality assurance problems) would not harm our
business, operating results, or financial condition.

Item 3: Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Market Risk
The Company is exposed to various market risks, including the changes in foreign
currency exchange rates. Market risk is the potential loss arising from adverse
changes in market rates and prices, such as foreign currency exchange and
interest rates. The Company does not enter into derivatives or other financial
instruments for trading or speculative purposes. The Company enters into
financial instrument contracts to manage and reduce the impact of changes in
foreign currency exchange rates. The counterparties are major financial
institutions.
Interest Rate Risk
The fair value of the Company's cash portfolio at June 30, 2000, approximated
carrying value. Market risk was estimated as the potential decrease in fair
value resulting from an instantaneous hypothetical 100 basis-point increase in
interest rates for any debt instruments in the Company's investment portfolio.
As of June 30, 2000, the Company's cash and short-term investment portfolio
includes debt securities of $435.4 million subject to interest rate risk. A 100
basis-point increase in market interest rates would result in a decrease of fair
value of approximately $3.2 million.
The fair value of the Company's long-term debt, including current maturities,
was estimated to be $3.6 million as of June 30, 2000, and equaled the carrying
value. The Company's long-term debt requires interest payments based on a
variable rate and therefore is subject to interest rate risk. A 10% fluctuation
in interest rates would not have a material effect on the fair value of the
outstanding long-term debt of the Company as of June 30, 2000.

PART II Other Information
ITEM 1. Legal Proceedings
On December 20, 1999, EFI filed suit against Splash Technology Holdings Inc.
("Splash") for Splash's infringement of three EFI patents. The lawsuit was filed
in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California. On
January 10, 2000, Splash answered the complaint and filed a counterclaim
alleging that EFI infringed one Splash patent. On July 31, 2000 we amended our
complaint to accuse all of Splash's color server products of infringing our
patents. Both our lawsuit and the Splash counterclaim seek declaratory relief,
permanent injunctions, damages (including enhanced damages), attorneys' fees and
other costs.
The case is currently in the discovery stage. Based on current information, we
believe the counterclaim to be without merit and intend to defend the
counterclaim vigorously. In connection with these legal proceedings, we expect
to incur substantial legal and other expenses. Patent lawsuits of this kind are
highly complex and can extend for a protracted period of time, which can
substantially increase the cost of such litigation and divert the attention of
management from the operations.
