NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS
(unaudited)

Note 1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six month periods ended March 31, 2002 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending September 30, 2002. For further information refer to the “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” under Item 2 below.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of Virage Logic Corporation (the “Company”) for the year ended September 30, 2001, which are included in the Company’s Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, Registration No. 000-31089.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Virage Logic International. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period financial statements to conform to current period presentation.

Note 2. Net Income (Loss) Per Share

Basic and diluted net income (loss) per share is presented in conformity with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, “Earnings Per Share” (SFAS 128). Pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 98, common stock and convertible preferred stock issued or granted for nominal consideration prior to the effective date of the Company’s initial public offering must be included in the calculation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per common share as if they had been outstanding for all periods presented.

6

Basic income (loss) per share has been computed using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period, less weighted average shares outstanding that are subject to repurchase by the Company.

Diluted income per share is computed using the weighted average number of outstanding shares of common stock and, when dilutive, potential common shares from options and warrants to purchase common stock subject to repurchase using the treasury stock method.

The following table presents the computation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per share applicable to common stockholders (in thousands, except per share amounts):

			Three Months Ended						Six Months Ended
			March 31,						March 31,
			2002			2001			2002			2001
Net income (loss)			$	512		$	(701	)	$	844		$	(1,985	)
Basic:
	Weighted average shares of common stock outstanding			20,228			19,906			20,158			19,922
	Less weighted average shares subject to repurchase			(604	)		(1,132	)		(683	)		(1,121	)

		Diluted	$	0.02		$	(0.04	)	$	0.04		$	(0.11	)

Note 3. Comprehensive Income (Loss)

In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board released Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, “Reporting Comprehensive Income” (SFAS 130). SFAS 130 established standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive income (loss) and its components. Total comprehensive income (loss) was not materially different from net income (loss) incurred for the three and six month periods ended March 31, 2002 and 2001.

Note 4. Segment Information

The Company operates in one business segment, the sale of semiconductor intellectual property for the memory elements of systems-on-a-chip, which it sells to fabless semiconductor companies as well as integrated device manufacturers.

7

Segment selection is based upon the internal organization structure, the manner in which these operations are managed and their performance evaluated by management, the availability of separate financial information and overall materiality considerations.

Long-lived assets are located primarily in North America with insignificant amounts held at our foreign locations. The Company has only one product line, therefore disclosure by product groupings is not available.

Revenues by geographic region were as follows (in thousands):

			Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
			March 31,				March 31,
			2002		2001		2002		2001
Revenues:
	North America		$	6,238	$	5,038	$	12,519	$	9,204
	EMEA			3,221		1,340		4,679		1,572
	Asia Pacific			1,188		1,223		3,096		3,419
		Total	$	10,647	$	7,601	$	20,294	$	14,195

For the three months ended March 31, 2002, Tower Semiconductor and Toshiba generated 10% and 17% of revenues, respectively.

Note 5. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement (SFAS) No. 141, Business Combinations, and SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, goodwill and intangible assets deemed to have indefinite lives will no longer be amortized, but instead will be subject to annual impairment tests. At March 31, 2002 the Company had a net intangible balance of $162,000 related to goodwill, workforce and customer list purchased on December 1, 1999. In connection with the adoption of SFAS No. 142, the Company determined that there was no impairment of goodwill.

In October 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.” SFAS No. 144 addresses significant issues relating to the implementation of SFAS No. 121, “Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of,” and develops a single accounting method under which long-lived assets that are to be disposed of by sale are measured at the lower of book value or fair value less cost to sell. Additionally, SFAS No. 144 expands the scope of discontinued operations to include all components of an entity with operations that (1) can be distinguished from the rest of the entity and (2) will be eliminated from the ongoing operations of the entity in a disposal transaction. SFAS No. 144 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001 and its provisions are to be applied prospectively. The Company is currently assessing the impact of SFAS No. 144 on its financial position and results of operations.

Note 6. Subsequent Events

The Company announced its intention to acquire In-Chip Systems, Inc. pursuant to a definitive agreement for a total purchase price of less than $20 million in stock and cash. This acquisition, if consummated, will be accounted for as a purchase and is expected to close by the end of May 2002.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Statements made in this “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”, other than statements of historical fact, are forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. These statements relate to future events or our future financial performance. In some cases, forward-looking statements can be identified by terminology such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “estimate,” “potential,” or “continue,” the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. These statements involve a number of risks and uncertainties including those set forth below under “Risk Factors” that could cause actual events or results to differ materially from any forward-looking statement. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date hereof, we expressly disclaim any obligation or undertaking to release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statements contained herein. The following information should be read in conjunction with the “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” on pages 15-20 of the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2001 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 19, 2001.

Overview

     Virage Logic provides embedded memory in the form of semiconductor intellectual property for systems-on-a-chip integrated circuits. These chips are used in communications equipment, computer and consumer products, such as cellular and digital phones, pagers, digital cameras, DVD players, switches and modems. Our memories are optimized for our customers’ manufacturing processes and are pre-tested through actual manufacture of silicon chips at third-party foundries.

     Revenues consist of license fees for our memories, standard and custom memory compilers, software development tools and royalties from certain third-party semiconductor foundries on their sales of silicon chips manufactured for our fabless customers. Licensing of our intellectual property involves a sales cycle of three to six months. Our memories and compilers can be customized for our customers’ specific manufacturing processes and requirements. A custom contract would typically call for milestone payments that are defined in the statement of work and program schedule that accompany a master license agreement. Milestone deliveries generally occur over three to six months as various phases of product development and/or services are completed.

     License revenues are recognized when persuasive evidence of an agreement exists, delivery of the product has occurred, we have no significant remaining obligations to perform, the fee is fixed or determinable and collectibility is probable. License revenues for certain software development tools are recorded ratably over the maintenance term as vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value for the maintenance portion of the revenues does not exist. License revenues on custom memory compilers are recognized using contract accounting over the period that services are performed under the percentage-of-completion method. For such licenses, we determine our progress-to-

9

completion using input measures based on labor hours incurred. A provision for estimated losses on engagements is made in the period in which the loss becomes probable and can be reasonably estimated. To date, no such loss provision has been necessary.

     Support revenues related to standard and custom memory compilers are recognized ratably over the term of the agreement for all agreements entered into after October 1, 2001. For agreements recorded in periods prior to the first quarter of fiscal 2002, support revenues were not deferred over the term of the license agreement but rather, recorded up front with an estimated cost of support accrued at the time license revenue was recognized. The increasing complexity of our products, associated with the decreasing geometries and the greater number of processes for each geometry, and the expected increase in estimated support costs resulted in the deferral of support revenues.

     Currently, license fees represent a substantial portion of our revenues. We have agreements with certain third-party semiconductor foundries which require them to pay royalties on their sales of silicon chips manufactured for our fabless customers. Royalty revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2002 totaled $408,000 as compared to $422,000 in the second quarter of fiscal 2001. The time delays for receiving royalty revenues are due to the typical length of time required for the customer to incorporate our embedded memories into their design and manufacture and bring to market a product incorporating our memories. We believe that product output by our foundry partners is improving and hence, our royalties should continue to trend upward slightly as the economy improves.

     For the three months ended March 31, 2002, Tower Semiconductor, Toshiba, and Conexant each generated between 8% and 17% of our revenues. Collectively, these companies represented 35% of total revenues for that period. For the three months ended March 31, 2001, Level One, Philips, TSMC, and Vitesse each generated between 5% and 39% of our revenues. Collectively, these companies represented 57% of total revenues for that period.

     We continue to increase our direct sales force in the United States, Europe and Japan, while also maintaining the use of distributors in Japan and the rest of Asia. Sales to customers located outside the United States accounted for 47% and 52% of our revenues for the three and six months ended March 31, 2002, respectively. All revenues to date have been denominated in U.S. dollars.

     Since our inception in November 1995, cost of revenues and other expense categories have progressively increased as we add personnel and increase the level of our business activities. We intend to continue making significant expenditures associated with research and development, sales and marketing and general and administrative activities, and expect that costs of revenues and these expenses will continue to be a significant percentage of revenues in future periods.

     We have incurred, and will continue to incur, substantial amortization of stock-based compensation, which represents non-cash charges incurred as a result of the issuance of stock options to employees. These charges are recorded based on the difference between the deemed fair value of the common stock at the date of grant and the exercise price of such options. The aggregate deferred stock-based compensation at March 31, 2002 was

10

$1.8 million. This amount is presented as a reduction of stockholders’ equity and is being amortized using the graded-vesting method over the vesting period of the applicable options, generally four years. Amortization of deferred stock-based compensation for the three months ended March 31, 2002, net of cancellations, was approximately $712,000. We anticipate that the amortization of stock-based compensation for options granted through March 31, 2002 will equal approximately $1.0 million in 2002, $0.7 million in 2003 and $0.1 million in 2004.

Critical Accounting Policies

We have identified the following as critical accounting policies to our company: revenue recognition, accounts receivable, valuation of long-lived assets and investments and income taxes.

Revenue recognition

     Our revenues are derived from licenses of our semiconductor intellectual property, which includes memories, standard and custom memory compilers and software development tools. Standard memory compilers and software development tools include a license of software and related maintenance services. Custom memory compilers typically include a license of software, maintenance services and customization of the software for the customer’s specific applications.

     For each arrangement, we determine whether persuasive evidence of an agreement exists, delivery of the product has occurred, there are no significant remaining Company obligations on our part, the fee is fixed or determinable, and collectibility is probable. If any of these criteria are not met, we defer revenue recognition until such time as all criteria are met.

     Standard memory compiler and software development tool arrangements include either a perpetual license with maintenance (telephone and email support and the rights to unspecified upgrades on a when-and-if available basis) or a term license with maintenance. We recognize the license fees for perpetual licenses upon the delivery of the compiler or software and the maintenance ratably over the maintenance period. Revenue is recognized using the residual method for valuation of the components of the sale. Accordingly, vendor specific objective evidence for maintenance revenue is determined based on the stated renewal rate on each contract. For term licenses accompanied by maintenance, we recognize the entire arrangement fee ratably over the term of the license.

     Revenues from custom memory compilers involve customization to the functionality of the software and are recognized using contract accounting over the period that services are performed under the percentage-of-completion method. For all license and service agreements accounted for using the percentage-of-completion method, we determine progress-to-completion using input measures based on labor hours incurred. A provision for estimated losses on engagements is made in the period in which the loss becomes probable and can be reasonably estimated. Costs incurred in advance of billings are recorded as costs in excess of related billings on uncompleted contracts. If customer acceptance is required for completion of specified milestones, related revenue is deferred until acceptance is met.

11

     Customer billing occurs in accordance with contract terms. Customer advances and amounts billed to customers in excess of revenue recognized are recorded as deferred revenues.

     Royalties are calculated based on production volumes of wafers containing silicon chips utilizing our intellectual property. Royalty revenue is generally determined and recognized one quarter in arrears, when a production volume report is received from the customer or foundry. The amount of royalty revenue is computed on either a rate per-chip or rate per-wafer basis depending upon the terms in the respective license agreements.

Accounts Receivable

     We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers and adjust credit limits based upon payment history and the customer’s current credit worthiness, as determined by our review of their current credit information. We continuously monitor collections and payments from our customers and maintain a provision for estimated credit losses based upon our historical experience and any specific customer collection issues that we have identified. While such credit losses have historically been within our expectations and the provisions established, we cannot guarantee that we will continue to experience the same credit loss rates that we have in the past. Since our accounts receivable are concentrated in a relatively few number of customers, a significant change in the liquidity or financial position of any one of these customers could have a material adverse impact on the collectability of our accounts receivables and our future operating results.

Valuation of Long-Lived Assets and Investments

     We periodically review the carrying value of our long-lived assets and investments for continued appropriateness. This review is based upon our projections of anticipated future cash flows from such assets and investments. While we believe that our estimates of future cash flows are reasonable, different assumptions regarding such cash flows could materially affect our evaluations. Based on our assessments, management believes no impairment of assets has occurred in the current period.

Income taxes

     Our income tax policy records the estimated future tax effects of temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and amounts reported in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. These differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities. Carrying value of the Company’s net deferred tax assets assumes that we will be able to generate sufficient future taxable income in certain tax jurisdictions, based on estimates and assumptions. Management evaluates the recoverability of the deferred tax assets and assesses the need for additional valuation allowances on a quarterly basis. Management believes current valuation allowance levels are appropriate based on our assessments.

Results of Operations

Three and Six Months Ended March 31, 2002 and 2001

     Revenues.Revenues increased 40% to $10.6 million from $7.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively. Revenues increased 43% to $20.3 million from $14.2 million for the six months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively. The increase in revenues is primarily due to continued migration to the 0.13 micron embedded memory technologies by our customers, emerging sales related to the 0.10 micron embedded memory technology and the introduction of the NOVeA family of non-volatile embedded memory products. We have seen increased revenues from the North America and EMEA regions for the three months ended March 31, 2002 over the same period last fiscal year, associated with our increased sales forces and continuing market penetration in these geographies. In addition, the Company received royalty revenues from third party foundries totaling $408,000 and $422,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively, and $761,000 and $697,000 for the six months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively.

     Gross Profit.Gross profit is revenues less cost of revenues. Cost of revenues consists primarily of personnel expenses and the allocated portion of facilities and equipment expenses. Gross profit increased 37% to $8.5 million from $6.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively. Gross profit increased 43% to $16.2 million from $11.3 million for the six months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively. These increases in gross profit are primarily attributable to increased sales volume and increased license fees from fabless semiconductor companies for standard products that require minimal labor costs for customization. Cost of revenues excludes $172,000 and $345,000 of amortization of stock-based compensation for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively, and $367,000 and $864,000 for the six months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively.

     Research and Development Expense.Research and development expense includes personnel and other costs associated with the development of successive generations of

13

embedded memory technologies and of new technologies. Research and development expense increased 32% to $3.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002 from $2.3 million for the same period last fiscal year. Research and development expense increased 30% to $5.9 million for the six months ended March 31, 2002 from $4.5 million for the same period last fiscal year. The increase in research and development expense was primarily due to the increase in the number of employees involved in research and development related to the 0.10 micron and NOVeA embedded memory technologies and all of the product offerings related to these two product families. Also increasing is depreciation related to capital spending for both computer hardware and software. We anticipate that research and development expense will continue to increase as we expand our product offerings and invest in technologies for future delivery. Research and development expense excludes $239,000 and $563,000 of amortization of stock-based compensation for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively, and $526,000 and $1,345,000 for the six months ended March 31, 2002, and 2001, respectively.

     Sales and Marketing Expense.Sales and marketing expense consists primarily of personnel, commissions, advertising, promotion and other associated costs. Sales and marketing expense increased 36% to $2.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002 from $2.0 million for the same period last fiscal year. Sales and marketing expense increased 51% to $5.2 million for the six months ended March 31, 2002 from $3.5 million for the same period last fiscal year. The increase in sales and marketing expense was due to hiring additional personnel, advertising and promotional costs, seminar costs and expanded sales and marketing activities. We anticipate that sales and marketing expense will continue to increase as we expand our product lines and target new customers and markets for our technologies. Sales and marketing expense excludes $214,000 and $492,000 of amortization of stock-based compensation for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively, and $468,000 and $1,001,000 for the six months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively.

     General and Administrative Expense.General and administrative expense consists primarily of personnel and other costs associated with the management of our business. General and administrative expense decreased 9% to $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2002 from $1.2 million for the same period last fiscal year. General and administrative expense stayed consistent at $2.1 million for the six months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001. The decrease in general and administrative expense was primarily due to decreased professional service costs. General and administrative expense excludes $87,000 and $299,000 of amortization of stock-based compensation for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively, and $191,000 and $623,000 for the six months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively.

     Stock-Based Compensation.With respect to the grant of stock options to employees, the Company has aggregate deferred stock-based compensation of approximately $1.8 million for the period ended March 31, 2002 and $3.4 million for the period ended September 30, 2001. The amount of deferred stock-based compensation is presented as a reduction of stockholders’ equity and is being amortized using the graded-vesting method over the vesting period of the applicable options, generally four years. The Company amortized, net of cancellations, $712,000 and $1.7 million during the three months ended March 31,

14

2002 and 2001, respectively, and amortized $1.6 million and $3.8 million during the six months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively.

     Interest Income and Other Expenses.Interest income decreased to $273,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2002 from $828,000 for the same period last fiscal year. This decrease was due to continued lower interest rates. Interest and other expenses decreased to $13,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2002 from $26,000 for the same period last fiscal year. This decrease was primarily the result of the continuing repayment of the outstanding balances under capital lease lines.

     Income Tax Provision.The provision for income taxes was $659,000 and $508,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively. The provision for income taxes was approximately $1.3 million and $1.1 million for the six months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively. The effective tax rates differed from the combined federal and state rates due primarily to stock-based compensation related charges that are non-deductible for tax purposes.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

     The Company has financed its operations from inception to March 31, 2002 from license and royalty revenue, through the issuance of notes and preferred stock, borrowing under capital leases and the $50.7 million net proceeds from the Company’s initial public offering and simultaneous private placement completed in August 2000. Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2002 was $512,000. Net income for the six months ended March 31, 2002 was $844,000. At March 31, 2002, the Company had $37.8 million in cash and cash equivalents, an increase of $10.0 million from cash held at September 30, 2001. The increase in cash balances at March 31, 2002 was primarily due to the maturity of short-term government security investments. Operations were funded from revenues received. We believe that our cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments will be sufficient to meet our operating and capital needs for at least the next 12 months.

     Net cash provided by operating activities was $3.0 million for the first six months of fiscal 2002. Net cash provided by operating activities resulted from net income of $844,000 adjusted for non-cash charges associated with the amortization of stock-based compensation and depreciation and amortization, a decrease in taxes receivable, an increase in deferred revenue, offset by an increase in accounts receivable. The increase in accounts receivable at March 31, 2002 resulted from increased quarterly revenues. Although accounts receivable increased, our days sales outstanding for the quarter ended March 31, 2002 was at 111 days, showing an improvement over 120 days from the prior quarter. We plan to continue working to improve our days sales outstanding over the next couple of quarters.

     Net cash provided by investing activities was $5.1 million for the first six months of fiscal 2002. Net cash provided by investing activities was due to the maturity of short-term government security investments, offset by the purchase of short-term and long-term government investments and acquisitions of property and equipment. We intend to purchase approximately $2.5 million of additional capital assets, primarily computer equipment and software, during the remainder of fiscal 2002.

15

     Net cash provided by financing activities was $1.7 million for the first six months of fiscal 2002. Net cash provided by financing activities is primarily due to the repayment of borrowings by stockholders and proceeds from the issuance of common stock.

     Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including the rate of sales growth, market acceptance of our existing and new technologies, amount and timing of research and development expenditures, timing of the introduction of new technologies, expansion of sales and marketing efforts, potential acquisitions and changes to our working capital structure primarily related to accounts receivable.

     The Company has outstanding obligations under capital lease lines, with payments due through June 2003. At March 31, 2002, $155,000 was outstanding under these lines. There is no remaining availability under these capital lease lines.

     Aggregate future minimum lease payments under capital leases and operating leases as of March 31, 2002 are as follows:

		Capital			Operating
		Leases			Leases
		(in thousands)
	2002	$	177		$	480
	2003		2			595
	2004		—			213
	2005		—			117
	2006		—			126
	Thereafter		—			402
Total minimum lease and principal payments			179		$	1,933
Less: Amount representing interest			(24	)
Present value of future lease payments			155
Less: Current portion of capital lease obligations			(153	)
Long-term portion of capital lease obligations		$	2

     In conjunction with the potential acquisition of In-Chip Systems, Inc., as stated in Note 6 of the notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, further commitment of cash of $5.5 to $8.5 million may be required to be paid over time.

Risk Factors

The technology used in the semiconductor industry is rapidly changing and if we are unable to develop new technologies and adapt our existing intellectual property to new processes, we will be unable to attract or retain customers.

     The semiconductor industry has been characterized by an increasingly rapid rate of development of new technologies and manufacturing processes, rapid changes in customer requirements, frequent product introductions and ongoing demands for greater speed and functionality. Our future success depends on our ability to develop new technologies and introduce new products to the marketplace in a timely manner, and to adapt our existing intellectual property to satisfy the requirements of new processes and our customers. If our development efforts are not successful or are significantly delayed, or if the enhancements or new generations of our products do not achieve market acceptance, we may be unable to attract or retain customers and our operating results could be harmed.

16

     Our ability to continue developing technical innovations involves several risks, including:

• our ability to anticipate and respond in a timely manner to changes in the requirements of semiconductor companies;

• the emergence of new semiconductor manufacturing processes and our ability to enter into strategic relationships with third-party semiconductor foundries to develop and test technologies for these new processes and provide customer referrals;

• the significant research and development investment that we may be required to make before market acceptance, if any, of a particular technology;

• the possibility that the industry may not accept a new technology after we have invested a significant amount of resources to develop it; and

• new technologies introduced by our competitors.

     If we are unable to adequately address these risks, our intellectual property will become obsolete and we will be unable to sell our products. Further, as new technologies or manufacturing processes are announced, customers may defer licensing our intellectual property until those new technologies become available or our intellectual property has been adopted for that manufacturing process.

     In addition, research and development requires a significant expense and resource commitment. Since we have a limited operating history, we are unable to predict our future resources. As a result, we may not have the financial and other resources necessary to develop the technologies demanded in the future and may be unable to attract or retain customers.

Our quarterly operating results may fluctuate significantly and any failure to meet financial expectations for any fiscal quarter may cause our stock price to decline.

     Our quarterly operating results are likely to fluctuate in the future due to a variety of factors, many of which are outside of our control. Because our expenses are largely independent of our revenues in any particular period, we are unable to accurately forecast our operating results. As a result, if our revenues are below expectations in any quarter, our inability to adjust spending in a timely manner to compensate for the revenue shortfall may magnify the negative effect of the revenue shortfall.

     Factors that could cause our revenues and operating results to vary from quarter to quarter include:

• large orders unevenly spaced over time;

• establishment or loss of strategic relationships with third-party semiconductor foundries;

• timing of new technologies and technology enhancements by us and our competitors;

17

• shifts in demand for products that incorporate our intellectual property;

• the timing and completion of milestones under customer agreements;

• the impact of competition on license revenues or royalty rates;

• the cyclical nature of the semiconductor industry and the general economic environment;

• changes in development schedules, research and development expenditure levels and product support by us and our customers; and

• historically, we have experienced a trend toward closing more product orders, and therefore, a higher percentage of revenue shipments, in the last month of a quarter. Some customers believe they can enhance their bargaining power by waiting until the end of the quarter to finalize negotiations.

     As a result, we believe that period-to-period comparisons of our results of operations are not necessarily meaningful and you should not rely on these comparisons as indications of future performance. These factors make it difficult for us to accurately predict our revenues and may cause our operating results to be below market analysts’ expectations in some future quarters, which could cause the market price of our stock to decline.

If we are unable to maintain existing relationships and develop new relationships with third-party semiconductor manufacturers, or foundries, we will be unable to verify our technologies on their processes and license our intellectual property to their customers.

     Our ability to verify our technologies for new manufacturing processes depends on entering into development agreements with third-party foundries to provide us with access to these processes. In addition, we rely on third-party foundries to manufacture our silicon test chips and to provide referrals to their customer base. We currently have agreements with Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company, or TSMC, United Microelectronics Corporation, or UMC, and Chartered Semiconductor Manufacturing or Chartered. If we are unable to maintain our existing relationships with these foundries or enter into new agreements with other foundries, we will be unable to verify our technologies for their manufacturing processes. We would then be unable to license our intellectual property to fabless semiconductor companies that use these foundries to manufacture their silicon chips, which is a significant source of our revenues.

If demand for products incorporating complex semiconductors and embedded memories does not rise, our business may be harmed.

     Our business and the adoption and continued use of our intellectual property by semiconductor companies depends on the demand for products requiring complex semiconductors and embedded memories, such as cellular and digital phones, pagers, digital cameras, DVD players, switches and modems. The demand for such products is uncertain and difficult to predict. A reduction in the demand for products incorporating

18

complex semiconductors and embedded memories or in the general economic environment which results in the cutback of research and development budgets or capital expenditures would likely result in a reduction in demand for our products and could harm our business.

     In addition, the semiconductor industry is highly cyclical and has fluctuated between significant economic downturns characterized by diminished demand, accelerated erosion of average selling prices and production overcapacity, as well as periods of increased demand and production capacity constraints. The semiconductor industry is currently experiencing a downturn and the U.S. economy has yet to rise out of an economic slowdown that involves lower levels of expenditures by businesses and individuals. As a result of such fluctuations in the semiconductor industry and the general economic slowdown, we may face a reduced number of design starts, tightening of customers’ operating budgets, extensions of the approval process for new orders and projects and consolidation among our customers, all of which may harm the demand for our embedded memories and may cause us to experience substantial period-to-period fluctuations in our operating results. Further, the markets for third-party semiconductor intellectual property and embedded memories have emerged only in recent years. Because of the recent emergence of these markets, it is difficult to forecast whether these markets will continue to develop or grow at a rate sufficient to support our business.

Problems associated with international business operations could affect our ability to license our intellectual property.

     Sales to customers located outside the United States accounted for 52% of our revenues for the six month period ended March 31, 2002, 55% of our revenues in fiscal 2001 and between 44% to 50% of our revenues in the fiscal years 1998 to 2000. We anticipate that sales to customers located outside the United States will increase and will continue to represent a significant portion of our total revenues in future periods. In addition, most of our customers that do not own their own fabrication plants rely on third-party foundries that may be outside of the United States. Accordingly, our operations and revenues are subject to a number of risks associated with doing business in international markets, including the following:

• managing foreign distributors and sales partners and sharing revenues with such third parties;

• staffing and managing foreign branch offices;

• political and economic instability;

• greater difficulty in collecting account receivables resulting in longer collection periods;

• foreign currency exchange fluctuations;

• changes in tax laws and tariffs;

• compliance with, and unexpected changes in, a wide variety of foreign laws and regulatory environments with which we are not familiar;

19

• timing and availability of export licenses;

• inadequate protection of intellectual property rights in some countries; and

• obtaining governmental approvals for certain technologies.

     If these risks actually materialize, our international operations may be adversely affected and sales to international customers, as well as those domestic customers that use foreign fabrication plants, may decrease.

If we are unable to continue establishing relationships with semiconductor companies to license our intellectual property, our business will be harmed.

     We currently rely on license fees from the sale of perpetual licenses to generate a large portion of our revenues. These licenses produce large amounts of revenue in the periods in which the license fees are recognized, but are not necessarily indicative of a commensurate level of revenue from the same customers in future periods. In addition, our agreements with our customers do not obligate them to license new or future generations of our intellectual property. As a result, the growth of our business depends significantly on our ability to expand our business with existing customers and attract new customers.

     We face numerous challenges in entering into license agreements with semiconductor companies on terms beneficial to our business, including:

• the lengthy and expensive process of building a relationship with a potential licensee;

• competition with the internal design teams of semiconductor companies; and

• the need to persuade semiconductor companies to rely on us for critical technology.

     These factors may make it difficult for us to maintain our current relationships or establish new relationships with additional licensees. Further, there is a finite number of fabless semiconductor companies and integrated device manufacturers to which we can license our intellectual property. If we are unable to establish and maintain these relationships, we will be unable to generate license fees and our revenues will decrease.

Our international operations may be adversely affected by instability in the countries in which we operate

     We recently established a subsidiary in Israel, and we expect to continue expanding our direct sales force in Europe. In addition, a growing portion of our intellectual property is being developed in development centers located in the Republic of Armenia and India. Israel has recently faced an increased level of violence and terror and Armenia, only independent since 1991, has suffered significant political and economic instability. Accordingly, continued and heightened unrest in areas of the world in which we operate may adversely affect our business in a number of ways, including the following:

20

• changes in the political or economic conditions in Armenia and the surrounding region, such as fluctuations in exchange rates, changes in laws protecting intellectual property, the imposition of currency transfer restrictions or limitations, or the adoption of burdensome trade or tax policies, procedures, rules, regulations or tariffs, could adversely affect our ability to develop new products, to take advantage of the cost savings associated with operations in Armenia, and to otherwise conduct business effectively in Armenia;

• our ability to continue conducting business in Israel and other countries in the normal course may be adversely affected by increased risk of violence and terror and our employees working and visiting in Israel may be affected by terrorist attacks;

• our Israeli customers’ demand for our products may be adversely affected because of negative economic consequences associated with reduced levels of safety and security in Israel.

General economic conditions and recent terrorist attacks may reduce our revenues and harm our business

     As our business has grown, we have become increasingly subject to the risks arising from adverse changes in domestic and global economic conditions. Because of the recent economic slowdown in the United States and in other parts of the world, many industries are delaying or reducing technology purchases and investments and similarly, our customers may delay payment for Virage Logic products causing our accounts receivable to increase. The September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks in New York City, Washington, D.C. and Pennsylvania and the anthrax-related terrorist attacks also contributed to the slowdown in the U.S. economy. In addition, the unrest in Israel and the Middle East may negatively impact the investments our worldwide customers make in this geographic region. The impact of this slowdown on us is difficult to predict, but if businesses or consumers defer or cancel purchases of new products that contain embedded memories, purchases by fabless semiconductor companies and integrated device manufacturers and production levels by semiconductor manufacturers could decline causing our revenues to be adversely affected, which would have an adverse effect on our results of operations and could have an adverse effect on our financial condition.

If we are unsuccessful in increasing our royalty-based revenues, our revenues and profitability may not be as large as we anticipate.

     We have historically generated revenues almost entirely from license fees. We have agreements with certain third-party semiconductor foundries to pay us royalties on their sales of silicon chips they manufacture for our fabless customers. For the six months ended March 31, 2002 and 2001, we recorded approximately $761,000 and $697,000, respectively, of royalty revenues. Beginning with our Custom-Touch STAR Memory System, CAM technologies and more recently with the introduction of our NOVeA technology, in addition to collecting royalties from third-party semiconductor foundries, we intend to increase our royalty base by collecting royalties directly from our integrated device manufacturer and fabless customers. The continued growth of our revenues depends in part on increasing our royalty revenues, but we may not be successful in convincing all customers to agree to pay us royalties. Additionally, these royalty arrangements may not

21

provide us with the anticipated benefits as sales of products incorporating our intellectual property may not offset lower license fees. Although we have the right to audit the records of semiconductor manufacturers and fabless semiconductor companies, we face risks relating to the accuracy and completeness of the royalty collection process, due to our limited experience and systems in place to conduct reviews of the accuracy of royalty reports we receive from our customers. In addition, many factors beyond our control, such as fluctuating sales volumes of products that incorporate our intellectual property, commercial acceptance of these products, accuracy of revenue reports and difficulties in the royalty collection process, limit our ability to forecast our royalty revenues.

We have a long and variable sales cycle, which can result in uncertainty and delays in generating additional revenues.

     Historically, because of the complexity of our products, it can take a significant amount of time and effort to explain the benefits of our products and to negotiate a sale. For example, it generally takes at least three to six months after our first contact with a prospective customer before we start licensing our intellectual property to that customer. In addition, purchase of our products is usually made in connection with new design starts, which are out of our control. Accordingly, we may be unable to predict accurately the timing of any significant future sales of software licenses. We may also spend substantial time and management attention on potential licenses that are not consummated, thereby foregoing other opportunities.

We rely on a small number of customers for a substantial portion of our revenues.

     We have been dependent on a relatively small number of customers for a substantial portion of our annual revenues in each fiscal year, although the customers comprising this group have changed from time to time. For the six months ended March 31, 2002, no single customer generated more than 10% of our revenues. In fiscal 2001, Philips Electronics and Intel Corporation generated 12% and 14% of our revenues, respectively. In fiscal 2000, no single customer generated more than 10% of our revenues. In fiscal 1999, ATI Technologies, MMC Networks, National Semiconductor and Toshiba each generated between 10% and 18% of our revenues for a total of 56% of our revenues. We expect a small number of companies in the aggregate to represent between 20% to 40% of our revenues for the foreseeable future. The license agreements we enter into with our customers do not obligate them to license future generations of our intellectual property and, as a result, we cannot predict the length of our relationship with any of our significant customers. As a result of this customer concentration, we could experience a dramatic reduction in our revenues if we lose one or more of our significant customers and are unable to replace them.

The market for embedded memory is highly competitive, and we may lose market share to larger competitors with greater resources and to companies that develop their own memory technologies using internal design teams.

     We face competition from both existing suppliers of embedded memories as well as new suppliers that may enter the market. We also compete with the internal design teams of large, integrated device manufacturers. Many of these internal design teams have substantial programming and design resources and are part of larger organizations with

22

substantial financial and marketing resources. These internal teams may develop technologies that compete directly with our technologies or may actively seek to license their own technologies to third parties.

     Many of our existing competitors have longer operating histories, greater brand recognition and larger customer bases, as well as greater financial and marketing resources, than we do. This may allow them to respond more quickly than we can to new or emerging technologies and changes in customer requirements. It may also allow them to devote greater resources than we can to the development and promotion of their products. In addition, the intense competition in the market for embedded memory could result in pricing pressures, reduced license revenues, reduced margins or lost market share, any of which could harm our operating results and cause our stock price to decline.

We may be unable to attract and retain key personnel who are critical to the success of our business.

     We believe that one of our significant competitive advantages is the size and quality of our engineering team. Our future success also depends on our ability to attract and retain engineers and other highly skilled personnel and senior managers. In addition, in order to meet our planned growth we must increase our sales force, both domestic and international, with qualified employees. Hiring qualified technical, sales and management personnel is difficult due to a limited number of qualified professionals and competition in our industry for these types of employees. We have in the past experienced delays and difficulties in recruiting and retaining qualified technical and sales personnel and believe that at times our employees are recruited aggressively by our competitors and start-up companies. Our employees are “at will” and may leave our employment at any time, and under certain circumstances, start-up companies can offer more attractive stock option packages than we offer. As a result, we may experience significant employee turnover. Failure to attract and retain personnel, particularly sales and technical personnel, would make it difficult for us to develop and market our technologies.

     In addition, our business and operations are substantially dependent on the performance of our key personnel, including Adam A. Kablanian, our President and Chief Executive Officer, and Alexander Shubat, our Vice President of Engineering and Chief Technical Officer. We do not have formal employment agreements with Mr. Kablanian or Mr. Shubat and do not maintain “key man” life insurance policies on their lives. If Mr. Kablanian or Mr. Shubat were to leave or become unable to perform services for our company, our business would be severely harmed.

We may be unable to deliver our customized memory products in the time-frame demanded by our customers, which could damage our reputation and future sales.

     A significant portion of our contracts require us to provide customized products within a set delivery timetable. We have experienced delays in the progress of certain projects in the past, and we may experience such delays in the future. Any failure to meet significant customer milestones could damage our reputation in our industry and harm our ability to attract new customers.

23

We may need additional capital that may not be available to us and, if raised, may dilute our stockholders’ ownership interest in us.

     We may need to raise additional funds to develop or enhance our technologies, to fund expansion, to respond to competitive pressures or to acquire complementary products, businesses or technologies. Additional financing may not be available on terms that are acceptable to us. If we raise additional funds through the issuance of equity or convertible debt securities, the percentage ownership of our stockholders would be reduced and these securities might have rights, preferences and privileges senior to those of our current stockholders. If adequate funds are not available on acceptable terms, our ability to fund our expansion, take advantage of unanticipated opportunities, develop or enhance our products or services, or otherwise respond to competitive pressures would be significantly limited.

We may have difficulty sustaining profitability and may experience losses in the future.

     During the quarter ended March 31, 2002, we recorded net income of $512,000. This was our third profitable quarter on a reported (GAAP) basis. In order to sustain profitability, we will need to continue to generate new sales while controlling our costs. As we plan on continuing the growth of our business and expect to increase the size of our company in the next twelve months, we may not be able to successfully generate enough revenues to remain profitable with this growth. Any failure to increase our revenues and control costs as we pursue our planned growth would harm our profitability and would likely negatively affect the market price of our stock.

If we are unable to effectively manage our growth, our business may be harmed.

     Our future success depends on our ability to successfully manage our growth. Our ability to manage our business successfully in a rapidly evolving market requires an effective planning and management process. Our customers rely heavily on our technological expertise in designing and testing our products. Relationships with new customers may require significant engineering resources. As a result, any increase in the demand for our products will increase the strain on our personnel, particularly our engineers.

     We have continued to grow our headcount from 138 full-time employees at September 30, 2000 to 202 full-time employees at September 30, 2001 to 240 full-time employees at March 31, 2002. We have continued to increase our international presence and have increased substantially the number of our customers. This growth has placed, and is expected to continue to place, significant strain on our managerial and financial resources as well as our limited financial and management controls, reporting systems and procedures. Although some new controls, systems and procedures have been implemented, our future growth, if any, will depend on our ability to continue to implement and improve operational, financial and management information and control systems on a timely basis, together with maintaining effective cost controls. Since our growth has occurred over such a limited time period, we do not have sufficient experience managing the current size of our business to be able to fully assess our ability to continue to manage its growth in the

24

future. Our inability to manage any future growth effectively would be harmful to our revenues and profitability.

Any acquisitions we make could disrupt our business and harm our financial condition.

     We may attempt to acquire businesses or technologies that we believe are a strategic fit with our business. We believe that future acquisitions may result in unforeseen operating difficulties and expenditures and may absorb significant management attention that would otherwise be available for ongoing development of our business. Since we will not be able to accurately predict these difficulties and expenditures, it is possible that these costs may outweigh the value we realize from a future acquisition. Future acquisitions could result in issuances of equity securities that would reduce our stockholders’ ownership interest, the incurrence of debt, contingent liabilities or expenses related to the valuation of goodwill or other intangible assets and the incurrence of large, immediate write-offs.

If we are not able to protect our intellectual property adequately, we will have less proprietary technology to license, which will reduce our revenues and profits.

     Our patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets and other intellectual property are critical to our success. We rely on a combination of patent, trademark, copyright, mask work and trade secret laws to protect our proprietary rights. We cannot be sure that the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office will issue patents or trademark registrations for any of our pending applications. Further, any patents or trademark rights that we hold or may hold in the future may be challenged, invalidated or circumvented or may not be of sufficient scope or strength to provide meaningful protection or any commercial advantage to us. We have not attempted to secure patent protection in foreign countries, and the laws of some foreign countries may not adequately protect our intellectual property as well as the laws of the United States. Also, the portion of our intellectual property developed outside of the United States may not receive the same copyright protection that it would receive if it was developed in the United States. As we increase our international presence, we expect that it will become more difficult to monitor the development of competing technologies that may infringe on our rights as well as unauthorized use of our technologies.

     We use licensing agreements, confidentiality agreements and employee nondisclosure and assignment agreements to limit access to and distribution of our proprietary information and to obtain ownership of technology prepared on a work-for-hire basis. Even though we have taken all customary industry precautions, we cannot be sure that we have taken adequate steps to protect our intellectual property rights and deter misappropriation of these rights or that we will be able to detect unauthorized uses and take immediate or effective steps to enforce our rights. Since we also rely on unpatented trade secrets to protect some of our proprietary technology, we cannot be certain that others will not independently develop or otherwise acquire the same or substantially equivalent technologies or otherwise gain access to our proprietary technology or disclose that technology. We also cannot be sure that we can ultimately protect our rights to our unpatented proprietary technology. In addition, third parties might obtain patent rights to such unpatented trade secrets, which they could use to assert infringement claims against us.

25

Third parties may claim we are infringing or assisting others to infringe their intellectual property rights, and we could suffer significant litigation or licensing expenses or be prevented from licensing our technology.

     While we do not believe that any of our technology infringes the valid intellectual property rights of third parties, we may be unaware of intellectual property rights of others that may cover some of our technology. As a result, third parties may claim we or our customers are infringing their intellectual property rights. Our license agreements typically require us to indemnify our customers for infringement actions related to our technology.

     Any litigation regarding patents or other intellectual property could be costly and time-consuming, and divert our management and key personnel from our business operations. The complexity of the technology involved makes any outcome uncertain. If we do not prevail in any infringement action, we may be required to pay significant damages and may be prevented from developing some of our technology or from licensing some of our intellectual property for certain manufacturing processes unless we enter into a royalty or license agreement. In addition, if challenging a claim is not feasible, we might be required to enter into royalty or license agreements in order to settle a claim and continue to license or develop our intellectual property, which may result in significant expenditures. We may not be able to obtain such agreements on terms acceptable to us or at all, and thus, may be prevented from licensing or developing our technology.

Changes to accounting standards and rules could either delay our recognition of revenues or reduce the amount of revenues that we may recognize at a specific time, and thus defer or reduce our profitability. These effects on our reported results could cause our stock price to be lower than it otherwise might have been.

     We adopted the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants’ Statement of Position, or SOP, 97-2, “Software Revenue Recognition,” as of October 1, 1998. In December 1998, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued SOP 98-9, “Modification of SOP 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, with Respect to Certain Transactions.” We implemented these provisions as of October 1, 1999. In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements” which summarizes certain of the SEC’s views in applying generally accepted accounting principles to revenue recognition in financial statements. Additional accounting guidance or pronouncements in the future could affect the timing of our revenue recognition in the future, which could cause our operating results to fail to meet the expectations of investors and securities analysts. In addition, changes to accounting policies that affect other aspects of our business, such as employee stock option grants may adversely affect our reported financial results.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

     Our core business, the sale of semiconductor intellectual property for the memory elements of systems-on-a-chip, has limited exposure to financial market risks, including changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. A significant portion of our customers are located in Asia, Canada and Europe. However, to date, our exposure to foreign currency exchange fluctuations has been minimal because our license agreements provide for payment in U.S. dollars.

     Our foreign subsidiaries incur most of their expenses in the local currency. Our international business is subject to risks typical of an international business, including, but not limited to differing economic conditions, changes in political climate, differing tax structures, other regulations and restrictions and foreign exchange rate volatility. International operations have not been material, therefore, we do not anticipate our future results to be materially adversely impacted by changes in these factors.

     We maintain an investment portfolio of various issuers, types and maturities. These securities are generally classified as available for sale and, consequently, are recorded on the balance sheet at fair value with unrealized gains or losses reported as a separate component of stockholders’ equity. Our investments primarily consist of short-term money market mutual funds, United States government obligations and mortgage-backed securities and commercial paper. Our investments balance of $XX million at March 31, 2002 consists of instruments with original maturities of 90 days to fifteen months. Due to the short-term nature of our investment portfolio and our intent to hold these investments to maturity, we do not believe our investment balance is materially exposed to interest rate risk.
