Part III. NARRATIVE.
FOCUS Enhancements, Inc. (the "Company") is unable to meet its filing
requirement for the Form 10-QSB for the quarter ended March 31, 2000,
without unreasonable effort or expense. The Company experienced significant
delays in completing its audit for the year ended December 31, 1999, due to
staffing availability issues. As a result, the Company is experiencing
delays in closing its books for the first quarter, 2000 and consequently,
is unable to complete on a timely basis, the first quarter's financial
statements and related disclosures that are to be included in the Company's
Form 10-QSB for the quarter ended March 31, 2000.
Additional time is required for the company to complete the closing of its
books and prepare its financial statements for the quarter ended March 31,
2000.

(2) Have all other periodic reports required under Section 13 or 15(d) of

(3) Is it anticipated that any significant change in results of operations

(X) Yes (see explanation below) ( ) No
If so, attach explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively and
quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable
estimate of the results cannot be made:
In the first fiscal quarter 1999, the Company had a net income of $0.01 per
share. In the first quarter of fiscal year 2000, the Company expects that
there will be a loss due primarily to expenses associated with the audit
and review for the 1999 fiscal year and a restructuring charge for closing
the Company's Morgan Hill facility. It is anticipated that the loss will
be approximately $0.06 per share.
Focus Enhancements, Inc. has caused this notification to be signed on its
behalf by the undersigned thereunto duly authorized.
