NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been
prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission. In the opinion of management, the consolidated financial statements
reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals)
considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position,
operating results and cash flows for those periods presented. The results of
operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of
the results that may be expected for the full fiscal year. The accompanying
consolidated financial statements should be read together with the audited
consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's
annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 1995.
NOTE 2. NET INCOME(LOSS)PER COMMON SHARE
Net Income (Loss) per common share has been computed based on the
weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding.
Common equivalent shares result from the assumed exercise of outstanding stock
options that have a dilutive effect when applying the treasury stock method.
NOTE 3. SHORT-TERM INVESTMENTS
Short-term investments consist of corporate bonds and U.S. agency
securities with original maturities beyond three months and less than twelve
months. These investments are carried at amortized cost which approximates fair
value.
NOTE 4. INVENTORIES
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or
market and consist of:

ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS:
NET SALES Net sales were $40.7 million for the three months ended March
31, 1996, a decrease of 24% from $53.6 million for the three months ended March
31, 1995. Net sales for the six months ended March 31, 1996 totaled $100.9
million, down 10% from $112.4 million through last year's second quarter. The
decrease in the quarter and year to date sales between comparable periods are
principally attributable to lower than anticipated orders from the Company's OEM
customer base which continued to work through its inventories remaining after
the December quarter and significantly lower sales to the U.S. government due to
the recent federal budget impasse.
COST OF SALES/GROSS PROFIT The Company's gross profit as a percentage of
net sales was 9.9% and 12.2% for the second quarter of fiscal 1996 and the
second quarter of fiscal 1995, respectively. Gross profit margin percentage was
11.4% and 14.0% for the six months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively.
The lower gross margin percentage for both periods are primarily due to the
lower revenue with the same level of manufacturing costs.
OPERATING EXPENSES Operating expenses for the second quarter of fiscal
1996 decreased $1.2 million from the comparable quarter in fiscal 1995 and were
$2.3 million lower for the six months ended March 31, 1996 compared to the prior
year period. Research and development expenses grew slightly as the Company
continued it's investment in developing new technology. Selling and marketing
costs were down for the quarter ended March 31, 1996 by $1.4 million as compared
to the same quarter in the previous year and down by $2.6 million for the six
months ended March 31, 1996 as compared to the same six month period in fiscal
1995. These cost reductions are primarily the result of the nearly completed
consolidation of the Micronics and Orchid sales and marketing organizations.
General and administrative spending increased slightly for the quarter and six
months, as compared to the same periods last year. This increase is due
principally to a $215,000 charge related to a settlement with a landlord on a
property in the U.K. which had previously been vacated.
INTEREST AND OTHER INCOME AND EXPENSE Interest income for the quarter
ended March 31, 1996 increased $78,000 or 108% compared to the prior year
period, and increased $17,000 or 8% for the first half of fiscal 1996 compared
to the prior year period due to higher average invested balances. The Company
recorded $110,000 and $179,000 of interest expense for the three and six months
ended March 31, 1996, respectively, related to long-term debt on real property
owned by Orchid. Included in other expense is the amortization of loan fees on
the $20 million line of credit and a $200,000 accrual to reflect a writedown to
actual sales value of real estate in France which the Company has agreed to
sell.
-7-
<PAGE> 8
PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES The Company's estimated effective tax rate was
41.0% and 36.8% for the six months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995, respectively.
The provision for income taxes for each period was computed by applying the
estimated fiscal year effective tax rate (net federal and state statutory rate
as adjusted for various tax credits and the estimated tax effect of certain
permanent items) to income before income taxes for each period.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES:
Working capital at March 31, 1996 was $48.3 million, up from $47.6
million at September 30, 1995. Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments
increased by $11.3 million during the quarter the result of decreases in
accounts receivable and inventory only partially offset by decreases in accounts
payable and accrued liabilities. The decrease in inventories was largely
attributable to improved inventory management combined with increased emphasis
on the liquidation of potentially excess or obsolete inventory. Accounts
receivable decreased principally due to the lower sales in the quarter. The
decreases in accounts payable and accrued liabilities resulted from the lower
levels of net sales and related reduced purchasing activity.
At March 31, 1996, the Company's principal sources of liquidity included
$20.3 million of cash, cash equivalents and short-term interest-bearing
financial instruments. The Company also has a $20 million secured line of
credit, expiring in September 1997. Borrowings under this line of credit are
limited to specific percentages of eligible accounts receivable and are
collateralized by a lien on substantially all assets of the Company. Borrowing
availability under this line is reduced by outstanding advances and letters of
credit. There have been no borrowings under this line of credit during the six
months ended March 31, 1996.
Management believes existing cash, cash equivalents and short-term
investments, together with cash generated by operations and the Company's
available borrowing capacity, will provide sufficient funds to meet the
Company's operating and capital requirements over the next twelve months.
BUSINESS OUTLOOK:
Except for the historical information contained herein, the matters
discussed in this 10Q are forward-looking statements that involve risks and
uncertainties, including: the Company's ability to retain existing and win new
OEM business; business conditions and growth in the personal computer industry
and general economy; change in customer order patterns including timing of
delivery; competitive factors, such as acceptance of new products and price
pressures; availability of third-party component products at reasonable prices;
risk of nonpayment of accounts receivable; risk of inventory obsolescence due to
shifts in market demand; meeting product introduction schedules; changes in the
mix of system boards and Nucleus products; litigation involving intellectual
property and consumer issues and the other risks detailed below and from
-8-
<PAGE> 9
time to time in the Company's other SEC reports. The actual results that the
Company achieves may differ materially from any forward-looking projections due
to such risks and uncertainties.
The Company expects sales through the third quarter to be approximately
30 percent below the second quarter. Stiff price competition and a product
transition-induced slowdown are expected to result in a substantial decline in
shipments to the OEM channel. The Company was informed by its largest OEM
customer that, as this customer's business grows, the customer expects to
purchase a portion of it's motherboard requirements from other suppliers. At
this time, the Company estimates that it will retain approximately two-thirds of
this customer's unit purchases of motherboards. For the third quarter,
government sales are expected to show improvement. The Company expects revenue
from all other channels to be comparable to the second quarter. The Company
expects a significant decrease in the third quarter gross margin percentage due
to the lower revenue projected above. The Company expects operating expenses for
it's third quarter in dollars to be flat as compared to the second quarter. The
Company expects the loss from interest and other income to decline for the third
quarter as compared to the second quarter.
The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly release the results of
any revisions to these forward-looking statements which may be made to reflect
events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of
unanticipated events.
