INTEVAC, INC.
1. |
Intevac, Inc.’s (“Intevac” or the “Company”) primary business is the design, manufacture and sale of complex capital equipment that is used to manufacture products such as flat panel displays and thin-film disks for computer disk drives and flat panel displays (the “Equipment Business”). The Company also develops highly sensitive electro-optical devices (the “Photonics Business”).
The Equipment Business manufactures thin-film deposition and rapid thermal processing equipment that is used in the manufacture of flat panel displays, and thin-film deposition and lubrication equipment that is used in the manufacture of thin-film disks for computer hard disk drives. Spare parts and after-sale service are also sold to purchasers of the Company’s equipment, and sales of components are made to other manufacturers of vacuum equipment.
The Photonics Business has developed technology that permits highly sensitive detection of photons in the visible and short wave infrared portions of the spectrum. This technology when combined with advanced silicon integrated circuits makes it possible to produce highly sensitive video cameras. This development work is creating new products for both military and industrial applications. Products include Intensified Digital Video Sensors, cameras incorporating those sensors and Laser Illuminated Viewing and Ranging (“LIVAR®”) systems for positive target identification.
The financial information at June 30,September 29, 2001 and for the three- and six-monthnine-month periods ended June 30,September 29, 2001 and July 1,September 30, 2000 is unaudited, but includes all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) that the Company considers necessary for a fair presentation of the financial information set forth herein, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information, the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, it does not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for annual financial statements. For further information, refer to the Consolidated Financial Statements and footnotes thereto included or incorporated by reference in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2000.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results inevitably will differ from those estimates, and such differences may be material to the financial statements.statement. Certain prior year balances have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation.
The Company evaluates the collectibility of trade receivables on an ongoing basis and provides reserves against potential losses when appropriate.
The results for the three- and six-monthnine-month periods ended June 30,September 29, 2001 are not considered indicative of the results to be expected for any future period or for the entire year.
2. Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS NO. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities which requires that all derivative financial instruments be carried at fair value and provides for hedge accounting when certain conditions are met. SFAS No. 133, as amended by SFAS No. 137, is effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. To date, the Company has not entered into any derivative financial instrument contracts. Thus the Company anticipates SFAS No. 133 will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
of contract and regular personnel. The reductions took place at the Company’s facilities in Santa Clara, California. The Company incurred a charge of $2,225,000 related to the expense reduction plan. The significant components of this charge included $873,000 for future rent due on the building (net of expected sublease income), $160,000 for costs associated with operating the building through May 2000, $580,000 for the write-off of leasehold improvements and $584,000 for moving from the building.
In the fourth quarter of 1999, $97,000 of the restructuring reserve was reversed due to lower than expected costs on the closure of the facility. During the first quarter of 2000, the Company vacated the
6
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
building and negotiated a lease termination for that space with its landlord, which released the Company from the obligation to pay any rent after April 30, 2000. As a result, the Company reversed $615,000 of the restructuring reserve during the first quarter of 2000.
During the fourth quarter of 1999, the Company adopted a plan to discontinue operations at its RPC Technologies, Inc. electron beam processing equipment subsidiary and to close the RPC facility in Hayward, California. Twenty-six employees out of the Company’s staff of contract and regular personnel were terminated as a result. The Company incurred a charge of $1,639,000 related to this plan. The significant components of this charge include $679,000 for inventory write-downs which were charged to cost of sales, $264,000 for fixed asset write-offs, $200,000 for closure of the facility, $163,000 for employee severance costs, $161,000 for future rent due on the facility and $152,000 for write-off of intangibles.
In the first quarter of 2000, Intevac sold certain assets of theits RPC Technologies, Inc. subsidiary to Quemex Technology. Proceeds from the sale included a cash payment, assumption of the Hayward facility lease and the assumption of certain other liabilities. Excluded from the sale were two previously leased systems and three completed systems remaining in inventory. Of the three systems in inventory, two were included in 2000 revenues and one was included in 2001 revenues. The Company was able to reverse the portions of the restructuring reserve established to provide for future rents due on the facility and for the closure of the facility. However, since Intevac retained ownership of the two leased systems, the Company established an equivalent reserve to provide for any residual valueobligations at the end of the leases. Of the three systems in inventory, two were included in 2000 revenues and one is included in 2001 revenues. One of the two leased systems was sold to the lessee in the three months ending September 29, 2001.
The following table displays the activity in the building closure restructuring reserve, established in the third quarter of 1999, and in the RPC operation discontinuance restructuring reserve, established in the fourth quarter of 1999, through December 31, 2000.

Results of Operations
Three Months Ended JuneThree Months Ended September 29, 2001 and September 30, 2001 and July 1, 2000
Net revenues.Net revenues consist primarily of sales of equipment used to manufacture flat panel displays and thin-film disks for computer hard disk drives, and flat panel displays, related equipment and system components, electron beam processing equipment (“Equipment”) and contract research and development related to the development of highly sensitive electro-optical devices under government sponsored R&D contracts and sales of derivative products (“Photonics”). Net revenues from system sales are recognized upon customer acceptance. Net revenues from sales of related equipment and system components are recognized upon product shipment. Contract research and development revenue is recognized in accordance with contract terms, typically as costs are incurred. Net revenues increased 3%decreased by 24% to $9.5$8.4 million for the three monthsthree-month period ended June 30,September 29, 2001 from $9.2$11.0 million for the three monthsthree-month period ended July 1,September 30, 2000. Net revenues from Equipment sales declined to $6.2$6.5 million for the three monthsthree-month period ended June 30,September 29, 2001 from $7.1$8.9 million for the three monthsthree-month period ended July 1,September 30, 2000. The decrease in Equipment sales was primarily the result of a decrease in domestic sales of disk manufacturing equipment, which was partially offset by an increase in international sales of diskflat panel manufacturing equipment and the sale of the last system in inventory from the Company’s discontinued electron beam product line.processing manufacturing equipment. Net revenues from Photonics sales increased 59%decreased to $3.3$1.9 million for the three monthsthree-month period ended June 30,September 29, 2001 from $2.1 million for the three monthsthree-month period ended July 1, 2000 primarily as a result of increased contract R&D sales.September 30, 2000.
International sales increased 79%by 122% to $3.5$5.5 million for the three monthsthree-month period ended June 30,September 29, 2001 from $2.0$2.5 million for the three monthsthree-month period ended July 1,September 30, 2000. The increase in international sales was primarily due to an increase in net revenues from diskflat panel display and electron beam processing manufacturing equipment. International sales constituted 37%66% of net revenues for the three monthsthree-month period ended June 30,September 29, 2001 and 21%23% of net revenues for the three monthsthree-month period ended July 1,September 30, 2000.
Backlog.The Company’s backlog of orders for its products was $52.9$42.1 million at June 30,September 29, 2001 and $31.2$37.1 million at July 1,September 30, 2000. The Company includes in backlog the value of purchase orders for its products that have scheduled delivery dates.
Gross margin.Cost of net revenues consists primarily of purchased materials, fabrication, assembly, test and installation labor and overhead, warranty costs, scrap and costs attributable to contract research and development. Gross margin decreasedincreased to (2%) for the three months ended June 30, 2001 from 20% for the three monthsthree-month period ended July 1, 2000.September 29, 2001 from 5% for the three-month period ended September 30, 2000 as the result of an increase in Equipment gross margins to 32% from 9%, partially offset by a decrease in Photonics gross margins to (22%) from (4%).
Equipment gross margins were depressed in the third quarter of 2000 as the result of the establishment of a $2.0 million inventory reserve related to the expected cost of updating and reconfiguring slow moving disk sputtering systems in inventory. Excluding the effect of this reserve, Equipment gross margins in the second quarter of 2001 were (6%) and were negatively impacted by the provision of a $2.4 million inventory reserve related to a custom multi chip module system manufactured for a customer that recently ceased operations and by the sale of an electron beam processing system at low gross margin. Equipment margin during the second quarter of 2001 without the effect of these two items would have been 42%. Equipment gross margin in the secondthird quarter of 2000 was 28% and was depressedwere 32%.
Photonics gross margins were negatively impacted as the result of a $1.1 million provision for inventory reserves related to slow moving systems inventory. Equipment gross margin during the second quarteran increased proportion of 2000 without the effect of the inventory reserve would have been 43%. Photonics gross margins increased to 6% for the three months ended June 30, 2001revenue from 0% for the three months ended July 1, 2000.cost-sharing research and development contracts. The Company expects that Photonics gross marginmargins will fluctuate from quarter to quarter based on the relative mix of revenuessales derived from sales of prototype products, from fully funded research and development contracts and from cost sharedcost-shared research and development contracts.
910
Research and development.Research and development expense consists primarily of prototype materials, salaries and related costs of employees engaged in ongoing research, design and development activities for diskflat panel manufacturing equipment, flat paneldisk manufacturing equipment and research by the Photonics Division. Company funded research and development expense increased to $3.6$3.8 million for the three monthsthree-month period ended June 30,September 29, 2001 from $2.5$2.7 million for the three monthsthree-month period ended July 1,September 30, 2000, representing 38%46% and 27%25%, respectively, of net revenue. TheThis increase was primarily the result of higher spending for development of flat panel display manufacturing equipment, and to a lesser extent, a higher proportion of Photonics research and development being funded by the Company, rather than by research and development contracts.equipment.
Research and development expenses do not include costs of $2.8$1.6 million and $1.5$2.0 million, respectively, for the three-month periods ended June 30,September 29, 2001 and July 1,September 30, 2000 related to contract research and development performed by the Company’s Photonics business. These expenses are included in cost of net revenues.
Research and development expenses also doexpense for the three-month period ended September 30, 2000 does not include costs$0.1 million of $0.3 million in each of the three-month periods ended June 30, 2001 and July 1, 2000,costs reimbursed under the terms of variousa research and development cost sharing agreements.agreement with a Japanese company. Since 1993 the Company has received $9.5 million under this cost sharing agreement. Research and development expense for the three-month period ended September 29, 2001 does not include $32,000 of costs reimbursed under the terms of a research and development cost sharing agreement with the National Institute of Standards and Technology related to development of super lattice sources for thin-film disk manufacturing.
Selling, general and administrative.Selling, general and administrative expense consists primarily of selling, marketing, customer support, financial, travel, management, legal and professional services and bad debt expense. Domestic sales are made by the Company’s direct sales force, whereas international sales are made by distributors and representatives that provide services such as sales, installation, warranty and customer support. The Company also has a subsidiary in Singapore to support customers in Southeast Asia. Through the second quarter of 2000, the Company marketed its flat panel manufacturing equipment to the Far East through its Japanese joint venture, IMAT. During the third quarter of 2000 the Company and its joint venture partner, Matsubo, transferred IMAT’s activities and employees to Matsubo, which became a distributor of the Company’s flat panel products, and shut down the operations of IMAT.
Selling, general and administrative expense increased to $1.8$1.6 million for the three monthsthree-month period ended June 30,September 29, 2001 from ($2) thousand$1.4 million for the three monthsthree-month period ended July 1,September 30, 2000, representing 19%20% and 0%13%, respectively, of net revenue. Selling,The primary reason for the increase was an increase in the selling, general and administrative salaries related to the Equipment business.
Restructuring expense.Restructuring expense was unusually low($23,000) during the secondthree-month period ended September 30, 2000. During the third quarter of 2000, asthe Company completed a resultSeptember 1999 restructuring plan and reversed the unused $23,000 balance of a $1.5 million reduction in the allowance for doubtful accounts.related reserve.
Interest expense.Interest expense consists primarily of interest on the Company’s convertible notes,Convertible Notes, and, to a lesser extent, interest on approximately $2.0$1.9 million of short-term debt related to the purchase of Cathode Technology in 1996. Interest expense was $0.7 million and $0.8 million, respectively, in the three-month periods ended June 30,September 29, 2001 and July 1,September 30, 2000. Interest expense declined slightly in the three-month period ended June 30, 2001 due to the retirement of the $1.9 million of short-term debt during the first quarter of 2001 of the debt related to the Cathode Technology purchase.2001.
Interest income and other, net.Interest income and other, net consists primarily of interest income and dividends on the Company’s investments, gain or loss on the disposition of assets, foreign currency hedging gains and losses, early payment discounts on the purchase of inventories, goods and services and, in 2000, the Company’s 49% share of the loss incurred by IMAT. Interest income and other, net increaseddeclined to $1.8$0.5 million for the three-month period ended June 30,September 29, 2001 from $0.8 million for the three-month period ended July 1, 2000September 30, 2000. The decline was primarily as the result of a $1.2 million gain on the disposition of previously reserved Pacific Gas and Electric commercial paper, partially offsetreduced interest income caused by lower interest incomecash balances and lower foreign currency hedging gains.interest rates during 2001.
Provision for (benefit from) income taxes.For the three-month periods ended June 30,September 29, 2001 and July 1,September 30, 2000, the Company did not accrue a tax benefit due to the inability to realize additional refunds from loss carry-backs. Based on management’s review, the Company increased its deferred tax asset valuation

Nine Months Ended September 29, 2001 and September 30, 2000 |
Net revenues.Net revenues increased by 7% to $27.9 million for the nine-month period ended September 29, 2001 from $26.1 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2000. Net revenues from Equipment sales declined slightly to $20.7 million for the nine-month period ended September 29, 2001 from $20.9 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2000. Net revenues from Photonics increased to $7.2 million for the nine-month period ended September 29, 2001 from $5.2 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2000. The increase in Photonics sales was primarily the result of increased contract research and development sales partially offset by reduced product sales.
International sales increased by 147% to $15.9 million for the nine-month period ended September 29, 2001 from $6.4 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2000. The increase in international sales was primarily due to an increase in sales of disk manufacturing equipment, and to a lesser extent an increase in the sales of rapid thermal processing systems for flat panel display manufacturing. International sales constituted 57% of net revenues for the nine-month period ended September 29, 2001 and 25% of net revenues for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2000.
Gross margin.Gross margin was 18% for the nine-month period ended September 29, 2001 as compared to 12% for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2000. Gross margin in the Equipment business increased to 26% for the nine-month period ended September 29, 2001 as compared to 19% for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2000. Equipment gross margins in the nine-month periods ended September 29, 2001 and September 30, 2000, respectively, were negatively impacted by the establishment of $2.4 million and $3.1 million of inventory reserves related to systems inventory. Excluding the effect of these reserves, Equipment gross margins were 37% and 34%, respectively, in the nine-month periods ended September 29, 2001 and September 30, 2000.
Photonics gross margins increased slightly to (5%) for the nine-month period ended September 29, 2001 from (10%) for the nine-month period ended September��30, 2000. Photonics gross margins in both years have been negatively impacted by a significant portion of revenue being derived from cost-sharing research and development contracts. The Company expects that Photonics gross margins will fluctuate based on the relative mix of sales derived from prototype products, from fully funded research and development contracts and from cost-shared research and development contracts.
Research and development.Company funded research and development expense increased by 42% to $11.0 million for the nine-month period ended September 29, 2001 from $7.7 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2000, representing 39% and 29%, respectively, of net revenue. This increase was primarily the result of increased expense for the development of flat panel display manufacturing equipment and photonics products, partially offset by reduced spending for development of disk manufacturing equipment.
Research and development expenses do not include costs of $7.1 million and $4.3 million, respectively, for the nine-month periods ended September 29, 2001 and September 30, 2000 related to contract research and development performed by the Company’s Photonics business. These expenses are included in cost of net revenues.
Research and development expense for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2000 does not include $0.6 million of costs reimbursed under the terms of a research and development cost sharing agreement with a Japanese company. Research and development expense for the nine-month period ended September 29, 2001 does not include $0.4 million of costs reimbursed under the terms of a research and development cost sharing agreement with the National Institute of Standards and Technology related to development of super lattice sources for thin-film disk manufacturing.

Selling, general and administrative.Selling, general and administrative expense increased by 72% to $5.1 million for the nine-month period ended September 29, 2001 from $3.0 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2000, representing 18% and 11%, respectively, of net revenue. The primary reasons for the increase were a $1.5 million credit to bad debt expense during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2000 and increased selling, general and administrative salaries in the Equipment business during the nine-month period ended September 29, 2001.
Restructuring expense (gain).Restructuring gain was ($0.6) million in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2000. During the nine months ended September 30, 2000 the Company vacated approximately 47,000 square feet of its Santa Clara Headquarters and negotiated an early lease termination for the space. As a result, the Company reversed approximately $0.6 million of previously accrued restructuring expense relating to future rents on the vacated space.
Interest expense.Interest expense declined to $2.2 million in the nine-month period ended September 29, 2001 from $2.3 million in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2000, due to the retirement of $1.9 million of short-term debt during the first quarter of 2001.
Interest income and other, net.Interest income and other, net decreased to $1.0 million for the nine-month period ended September 29, 2001 from $2.3 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2000. The decrease was primarily the result of a $0.8 million loss on the disposition of Pacific Gas and Electric commercial paper and lower interest income due to reduced interest rates and cash balances.
Provision for (benefit from) income taxes.For the nine-month periods ended September 29, 2001 and September 30, 2000, the Company did not accrue a tax benefit due to the inability to realize additional refunds from loss carry-backs. Based on management’s review, the Company increased its deferred tax asset valuation reserve by $1.3 million during the nine-month period ended September 29, 2001. As of September 29, 2001 the Company’s net deferred tax assets totaled $3.7 million. If in the future the Company cannot project with reasonable certainty that it will earn taxable income sufficient to realize all or part of the value of these net deferred tax assets, the Company will expense the value of the net deferred tax assets not likely to be realized.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2001 and July 1, 2000
Net revenues.Net revenues increased 29% to $19.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001 from $15.1 million for the six months ended July 1, 2000. Net revenues from Equipment sales increased to $14.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001 from $12.0 million for the six months ended July 1, 2000. The increase in net revenues from Equipment was due primarily to the sale of an electron beam manufacturing system during the second quarter of 2001. Net revenues from Photonics increased to $5.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001 from $3.1 million for the six months ended July 1, 2000. The increase in Photonics sales was primarily the result of increased contract R&D activities during 2001 in combination with a large research and development contract that was on hold for a portion of the six-month period ended July 1, 2000.
International sales increased 163% to $10.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001 from $4.0 million for the six months ended July 1, 2000. The increase in international sales during the six months ended June 30, 2001 was primarily due to an increase in net revenues from disk manufacturing equipment, and to a lesser extent from the sale of a rapid thermal processing system for flat panel display manufacturing. International sales constituted 53% of net revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2001 and 26% of net revenues for the six months ended July 1, 2000.
Gross margin.Gross margin was 17% for the six months ended June 30, 2001 as compared to 16% for the six months ended July 1, 2000. Gross margin in the Equipment business declined to 23% for the six months ended June 30, 2001 from 27% for the six months ended July 1, 2000. Equipment gross margin in the six months ended June 30, 2001 was negatively impacted by the previously mentioned provision of a $2.4 million inventory reserve related to the custom multi chip module system and by the sale of an electron beam processing system at low gross margin. Equipment gross margin during the six months ended June 30, 2001 without the effect of these two items would have been 44%. Equipment gross margin during the six months ended July 1, 2000 was 27% and was depressed as the result of a $1.1 million provision for inventory reserves. Equipment gross margin during the six months ended July 1, 2000 without the effect of this reserve would have been 36%. Photonics gross margin increased to 0% for the six months ended June 30, 2001 from (15%) for the six months ended July 1, 2000. The Company expects that Photonics gross margin will fluctuate from quarter to quarter based on the relative mix of revenues derived from sales of prototype products, from fully funded research and development contracts and from cost shared research and development contracts.
Research and development.Company funded research and development expense increased 43% to $7.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001 from $5.0 million for the six months ended July 1, 2000, representing 36% and 33%, respectively, of net revenue. The increase was primarily the result of increased expense for the development of flat panel manufacturing equipment, and to a lesser extent, a higher proportion of Photonics research and development being funded by the Company, rather than by research and development contracts, partially offset by lower expenses for the development of disk manufacturing equipment.
Research and development expenses do not include costs of $4.9 million and $2.3 million, respectively, for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2001 and July 1, 2000 related to contract research and development performed by the Company’s Photonics business. These expenses are included in cost of net revenues.
Research and development expenses also do not include costs of $0.4 million and $0.5 million, respectively, in the six-month periods ended June 30, 2001 and July 1, 2000, reimbursed under the terms of various research and development cost sharing agreements.
Selling, general and administrative.Selling, general and administrative expense increased 118% to $3.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001 from $1.6 million for the six months ended July 1, 2000, representing 18% and 10%, respectively, of net revenue. The primary reason for the increase was a $1.5 million reduction in the allowance for doubtful accounts during the six months ended July 1, 2000, and to a lesser extent, increased marketing and administrative staff.
Restructuring expense (gain).Restructuring gain was $0.6 million in the six months ended July 1, 2000. During the six months ended July 1, 2000 the Company vacated approximately 47,000 square feet of its Santa
11
Interest expense.Interest expense was approximately $1.5 million in each of the six months ended June 30, 2001 and July 1, 2000. Interest expense declined slightly in 2001 due to the retirement of the debt related to the Cathode Technology purchase during the first quarter of 2001.
Interest income and other, net.Interest income and other, net decreased to $0.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001 from $1.4 million for the six months ended July 1, 2000. The decrease was primarily the result of a $0.8 million loss on the disposition of Pacific Gas and Electric commercial paper, and to a lesser extent, lower interest income and lower foreign currency hedging gains.
Provision for (benefit from) income taxes.For the six-month periods ended June 30, 2001 and July 1, 2000, the Company did not accrue a tax benefit due to the inability to realize additional refunds from loss carry-backs. As of June 30, 2001 the Company’s deferred tax assets totaled $7.7 million. The Company believes that it is more likely than not that it will earn sufficient taxable income in the future to realize the value of these deferred tax assets. If in the future the Company cannot project with reasonable certainty that it will earn sufficient taxable income in the future to realize all or part of the value of these net deferred tax assets, then the Company will expense the value of the net deferred tax assets not likely to be realized.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company’s operating activities used cash of $10.9$11.2 million for the six monthsnine-month period ended June 30,September 29, 2001. The cash used was due primarily to increases in inventory increases and to the net loss incurred by the Company, which werewas partially offset by increasesan increase in customer advances, by a decrease in accounts payable and payroll,receivable and by depreciation and amortization.
The Company’s investing activities provided cash of $30.8$29.4 million for the six monthsnine-month period ended June 30,September 29, 2001 as a result of the net sale of investments, which was partially offset by the purchase of fixed assets.
The Company’s financing activities provided cash of $0.2$0.4 million for the six monthsnine-month period ended June 30,September 29, 2001 as the result of the sale of the Company’s common stock to its employees through the Company’s employee benefit plans.
The Company believes that its available sources of funds and anticipated cash flows from operations will be adequate to finance current operations and anticipated capital expenditures through at least fiscal 2001.
Certain Factors Which May Affect Future Operating Results
Our products are complex, constantly evolving, and are often designed and manufactured to individual customer requirements which requiresrequire additional engineering.
Intevac’s Equipment Division products have a large number of components and are highly complex. Intevac may experience delays and technical and manufacturing difficulties in future introductions or volume production of new systems or enhancements. In addition, some of the systems built by Intevac may be customized to meet individual customer requirements. Intevac has limited manufacturing capacity and engineering resources and may be unable to complete development, manufacture and shipment of its products,

The Equipment Division is subject to rapid technical change. |
Intevac’s ability to remain competitive requires substantial investments in research and development. The failure to develop, manufacture and market new systems, or to enhance existing systems, would have an
12
The Photonics Division does not yet generate a significant portion of its revenues from product sales. |
To date the activities of the Photonics Division have concentrated on the development of its technology and prototype products that demonstrate this technology. Revenues have been derived primarily from research and development contracts funded by the United States Government and its contractors. The Company continues to develop standard photonics products for sale to military and commercial customers. The Photonics Division will require substantial further investment in sales and marketing, in product development and in additional production facilities to support the planned transition to volume sales of photonics products to military and commercial customers. There can be no assurance that the Company will succeed in these activities and generate significant increases in sales of products based on its photonics technology.
The sales of our equipment products are dependent on substantial capital investment by our customers.The sales of our equipment products are dependent on substantial capital investment by our customers.
The majority of our Equipment revenues have historically come from the sale of equipment used to manufacture thin-film disks, and to a lesser extent, from the sale of equipment used to manufacture flat panel displays. The purchase of Intevac’s systems, along with the purchase of other related equipment and facilities, requires extremely large capital expenditures by our customers. These costs are far in excess of the cost of the Intevac systems. The magnitude of such capital expenditures requires that our customers have access to large amounts of capital and that they are willing to invest that capital over long periods of time to be able to purchase our equipment. Some of our customers, particularly those that purchase our disk manufacturing products, may not be willing, or able, to make the magnitude of capital investment required to purchase our products.
The disk drive industry has been severely impacted by excess capacity since 1997.The disk drive industry has been severely impacted by excess capacity since 1997.
Intevac derives a significant proportion of its revenues from sales of equipment to manufacturers of computer disk drives and disk drive components. The disk drive industry has experienced a long period of over-supply, the reduction of the number of disks used per disk drive and intensely competitive pricing. Since 1997, many of the manufacturers of hard disk drives and their component suppliers have reported substantial losses. Some of these manufacturers have gone out of business. Others have been acquired by their customers or by their competitors. Accordingly, the number of potential customersmarket for Intevac’s disk equipment products has been reduced. As a result of these factors, Intevac has experienced significant reductions in its quarterly revenues, and has incurred quarterly losses, since the third quarter of 1998. Additionally, the financial strength of the industry has deteriorated which subjects Intevac to increased credit risk on its accounts receivable. Intevac is
14
favorable, particularly in light of the current widespread weakness of the economy.
Demand for capital equipment is cyclical. |
Intevac’s Equipment Division sells capital equipment to capital intensive industries, which sell commodity products such as disks, disk drives and flat panel displays. These industries operate with high fixed costs. When demand for these commodity products exceeds capacity, demand for new capital equipment such as Intevac’s tends to be amplified. When supply of these commodity products exceeds capacity, demand for new capital equipment such as Intevac’s tends to be depressed. The cyclical nature of the capital equipment industry means that in some years, such as 1997, sales of new systems by the Company will be unusually high, and that in other years, such as 2000,2001, sales of new systems by the Company will be severely depressed. Failure to anticipate, or respond quickly to the industry business cycle could have an adverse effect on Intevac’s business.

Rapid increases in areal density are reducing the number of thin-film disks required per disk drive.Rapid increases in areal density are reducing the number of thin-film disks required per disk drive.
Over the past few years the amount of data that can be stored on a single thin-film computer disk has been increasing at approximately 100% per year. Although the number of disk drives produced has continued to increase each year, the growth in areal density has resulted in a reduction in the number of disks required per disk drive. The result has beenTrendFocus, a market research firm specializing in the disk drive industry, projects that the number of thin-film disks used worldwide has not grown significantly since 1997.will decline in 2001 from 2000 levels . Without an increase in the number of disks required, Intevac’s disk equipment sales are largely limited to upgrades of existing capacity, rather than capacity expansion. While the rapidly falling cost of storage per gigabyte is leading to new applications for disk drives beyond the traditional computer market, it is not clear to what extent the demand from these new applications will be offset by further declines in the average number of disks required per disk drive.
Our competitors are large and well financed and competition is intense.Our competitors are large and well financed and competition is intense.
Intevac experiences intense competition in the Equipment Division. For example, Intevac’s equipment products experience competition worldwide from competitors including Anelva Corporation, Applied Films Corporation, Ulvac Japan, Ltd. and Unaxis Holdings, Ltd., each of which have sold substantial numbers of systems worldwide. Anelva, Ulvac and Unaxis all have substantially greater financial, technical, marketing, manufacturing and other resources than Intevac. There can be no assurance that Intevac’s competitors will not develop enhancements to, or future generations of, competitive products that will offer superior price or performance features or that new competitors will not enter Intevac’s markets and develop such enhanced products.
Given the lengthy sales cycle and the significant investment required to integrate equipment into the manufacturing process, Intevac believes that once a manufacturer has selected a particular supplier’s equipment for a specific application, that manufacturer generally relies upon that supplier’s equipment and frequently will continue to purchase any additional equipment for that application from the same supplier. Accordingly, competition for customers in the equipment industry is intense, and suppliers of equipment may offer substantial pricing concessions and incentives to attract new customers or retain existing customers.
Business interruptions could adversely affect our business.$41 Million of convertible notes are outstanding and will mature in 2004.
Intevac’s operations are vulnerable to interruption by fire, earthquake, power loss, telecommunications failure and other events beyond our control. The Company’s facilityIn connection with the sale of $57.5 million of its 6 1/2% Convertible Subordinated Notes Due 2004 (the “Convertible Notes”) in California is currently subject to electrical blackouts asFebruary 1997, Intevac incurred a consequence of a shortage of available electrical power. In the event these blackouts continue orsubstantial increase in severity, they could disrupt the operationsratio of long-term debt to total capitalization (shareholders’ equity plus long-term debt).

The $41.2 million of the costConvertible Notes that remain outstanding as of electricitySeptember 29, 2001 commit Intevac to substantial principal and natural gas has increased significantly. Such cost increases and any further cost increases will impact the Company’s profitability.
Competitioninterest obligations. The degree to which Intevac is intense for employees in northern California.
Intevac’s operating results depend in significant part upon its ability to retain and attract qualified management, engineering, marketing, manufacturing, customer support, sales and administrative personnel. Competition in northern California for such personnel is intense. The cost of living in northern California is also extremely high, which further increases the cost and difficulty of recruiting new employees. There can be no assurance that Intevac will be successful in attracting new employees and retaining its staff. The failure to attract and retain such personnelleveraged could have an adverse effect on Intevac’s business.
A portion of our sales areability to international customers.
Salesobtain additional financing for working capital, acquisitions or other purposes and operating activities outside of the United States arecould make it more vulnerable to industry downturns and competitive pressures. Intevac’s ability to meet its debt service obligations will be dependent on Intevac’s future performance, which will be subject to certain inherent risks, including fluctuations in the value of the United States dollar relative to foreign currencies, tariffs, quotas, taxesfinancial, business and other market barriers, political and economic instability, restrictions onfactors affecting the export or importoperations of technology, potentially limited intellectual property protection, difficulties in staffing and managing international operations and potentially adverse tax consequences.

14
Intevac generally quotes and sells its products in US dollars. However, for some Japanese customers, Intevac quotes and sells its products in Japanese Yen. Intevac, from time to time, enters into foreign currency contracts in an effort to reduce the overall risk of currency fluctuations to Intevac’s business. However, there can be no assurance that the offer and sale of products in foreign denominated currencies, and the related foreign currency hedging activities will not adversely affect Intevac’s business.
Intevac’s two principal competitors for disk sputtering equipment are based in foreign countries and have cost structures based on foreign currencies. Accordingly, currency fluctuations could cause Intevac’s products to be more, or less, competitive than its competitors’ products. Currency fluctuations will decrease, or increase, Intevac’s cost structure relative to those of its competitors, which could impact Intevac’s gross margins.
Our operating results fluctuate significantly.
Over the last ten quarters Intevac’s operating loss as a percentage of net revenues has fluctuated from approximately (79%) to (8%) of net revenues. Over the same period sales per quarter have fluctuated between $13.8 million and $5.9 million. Intevac anticipates that its sales and operating margins will continue to fluctuate. As a result, period-to-period comparisons of its results of operations are not necessarily meaningful and should not be relied upon as indications of future performance.
Intevac’s stock price is volatile.
Intevac’s stock price has experienced both significant increases in valuation, and significant decreases in valuation, over short periods of time. Intevac believes that factors such as announcements of developments related to Intevac’s business, fluctuations in Intevac’s operating results, failure to meet securities analysts’ expectations, general conditions in the disk drive and thin-film media manufacturing industries and the worldwide economy, announcements of technological innovations, new systems or product enhancements by Intevac or its competitors, fluctuations in the level of cooperative development funding, acquisitions, changes in governmental regulations, developments in patents or other intellectual property rights and changes in Intevac’s relationships with customers and suppliers could cause the price of Intevac’s Common Stock to continue to fluctuate substantially. In addition, in recent years the stock market in general, and the market for small capitalization and high technology stocks in particular, has experienced extreme price fluctuations which have often been unrelated to the operating performance of affected companies. Any of these factors could adversely affect the market price of Intevac’s Common Stock.
Intevac routinely evaluates acquisition candidates and other diversification strategies.
Intevac has completed multiple acquisitions as part of its efforts to grow and diversify its business. For example, Intevac’s business was initially acquired from Varian Associates in 1991. Additionally, Intevac acquired its current gravity lubrication, CSS test equipment and rapid thermal processing product lines in three separate acquisitions. Intevac also acquired its RPC electron beam processing business in late 1997, and after two years initiated plans to close this business. Intevac intends to continue to evaluate new acquisition candidates and diversification strategies. Any acquisition will involve numerous risks, including difficulties in the assimilation of the acquired company’s employees, operations and products, uncertainties associated with operating in new markets and working with new customers, and the potential loss of the acquired company’s key employees. Additionally, unanticipated expenses may be incurred relating to the integration of technologies, research and development, and administrative functions. Any future acquisitions may result in potentially dilutive issuance of equity securities, acquisition related write-offs and the assumption of debt and contingent liabilities. Any of the above factors could adversely affect Intevac’s business.control.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
On June 12, 1996 two Australian Army Black Hawk Helicopters collided in midair during nighttime maneuvers. Eighteen Australian servicemen perished and twelve were injured. The Company was named as a defendant in a lawsuit related to this crash. The lawsuit was filed in Stamford, Connecticut Superior Court on June 10, 1999 by Mark Durkin, the administrator of the estates of the deceased crewmembers, the injured crewmembers and the spouses of the deceased and/or injured crewmembers. Included in the suit’s allegations are assertions that the crash was caused by defective night vision goggles. The suit names three US manufacturers of military night vision goggles, of which Intevac was one. The suit also names the manufacturer of the pilot’s helmets, two manufacturers of night vision system test equipment and the manufacturer of the helicopter. The suit claims damages for 13 personnel killed in the crash, 5 personnel injured in the crash and spouses of those killed or injured.
It is known that the Australian Army established a Board of Inquiry to investigate the accident and that the Board of Inquiry concluded that the accident was not caused by defective night vision goggles. Preliminary investigations lead
On July 27, 2000 the Connecticut Superior Court disallowed the defendants’ motion to dismiss the lawsuit. That decision was appealed to the Connecticut Supreme Court. On October 30, 2001 the Connecticut Supreme Court reversed the Superior Court’s decision and remanded the case to the trial court with the direction to grant the defendants’ motions to dismiss the suit subject to conditions already agreed to by the defendants. These conditions agreed to by the defendants include (1) consenting to jurisdiction in Australia; (2) accepting service of process in connection with an action in Australia; (3) making their personnel and records available for litigation in Australia; (4) waiving any applicable statutes of limitation in Australia up to six months from the date of dismissal of this action or for such other reasonable time as may be required as a condition of dismissing this action; (5) satisfying any judgement that may be entered against them in Australia; and (6) consenting to the reopening of the action in Connecticut in the event the above conditions are not met as to any proper defendant in the action. At this time, Intevac does not know whether the plaintiffs will choose to recommence litigation against the Company in Australia. Any such action could expose Intevac to believe that it has meritorious defenses againstfurther risk, plus the Durkin suit. However, there can be no assurance thatexpense and uncertainties of defending the resolution of the suit will not havematter in a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, operating results and financial condition.distant foreign jurisdiction.
