LEITCH TECHNOLOGY ANNOUNCES SECOND QUARTER RESULTS
TORONTO — Leitch Technology Corporation (TSX:LTV) today announced its financial results for the second quarter ended October 31, 2003. As previously announced on November 11, 2003, revenue for the first quarter was $36.4 million, representing a 3% decrease from $37.5 million in the prior quarter and a 20% decrease from $45.7 million during the same period last year. The Company is continuing to experience reduced activity in its U.S. markets and, on a geographic basis this was the principal reason for the decline in revenue. On a product line basis, the Company experienced a weak quarter in its Server line, at least in part due to a slowdown caused by the transition in the quarter to its new NEXIO™ line of servers. Revenue increased in the Company's Video Processing and Distribution line and in its Post Production line.
Gross margin in the first quarter of fiscal 2004 was $15.7 million or 43% of revenue. Gross margin during the quarter was negatively impacted by low production volumes, a weakening U.S. dollar and product mix.
Expense initiatives are on track and total expenses for the quarter were $22.3 million, down from $25.9 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2003 and up slightly from $21.7 million in the first quarter. Costs of approximately $1 million associated with attending the IBC show offset other cost reductions this quarter.

LEITCH TECHNOLOGY ANNOUNCES SECOND QUARTER RESULTS 2
"I believe that the building blocks are in place to return Leitch to profitability," said Tim Thorsteinson, Leitch's newly appointed President and CEO. "I will be working with the team to invigorate our efforts to gain market share and revenue with our new product portfolio as well as to continue to balance the expense base of the company to its revenue flow."
Loss before income taxes for the quarter was $6.4 million compared to a loss of $7.3 million in the first quarter of this fiscal year and a loss of $4.3 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2003.
The Company elected to discontinue recognizing the tax benefit of its losses in the second quarter and, as a result, the net loss in the second quarter of fiscal 2004 was $6.4 million, or $0.19 per share compared to $5.1 million or $0.17 per share in the prior quarter and $3.4 million or $0.11 per share during the second quarter of fiscal 2003. Prior quarter results included a charge for restructuring, while the second quarter of fiscal 2003 included $1.5m of amortization of acquired technology.
At the end of the quarter the Company had $30.6 million in cash on hand, up from $15.1 million at the end of the first quarter. The increase was primarily due to the company's public offering during the second quarter where it raised approximately $20 million. This was offset by losses experienced in the second quarter. The Company continues to have no debt on its balance sheet.
The Company has finalized a 3-year $20 million senior secured credit facility with CIT Business Credit Canada Inc. This new facility is available for general corporate purposes and Company's future growth plans. The Company has no current plans to draw on the facility.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(In thousands of Canadian dollars, except share and per share amounts — Unaudited)
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
These condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with The Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants ("CICA") Standards for interim financial statements. These condensed consolidated financial statements follow the same accounting policies and methods of their application as the most recent annual financial statements except as disclosed herein, however, they do not include all of the disclosure requirements for annual financial statements. For a full description of accounting policies, refer to Leitch Technology Corporation's ("Leitch" or the "Company") 2003 Audited Consolidated Annual Financial Statements.
2. HEDGING RELATIONSHIPS
On May 1, 2003, the Company adopted CICA Accounting Guideline 13 ("AcG-13"), "Hedging Relationships", which establishes certain conditions for when hedge accounting may be applied. The Company uses derivative financial instruments for risk management purposes and designates them as cash flow hedges. The Company records the derivative's gain or loss into earnings when the hedged exposure affects earnings. The ineffective portion of the gain or loss is reported in earnings immediately.
3. OTHER CHARGES
During the quarter ended July 31, 2003, the Company incurred $2,918 in costs, primarily related to severance and other employee termination benefits, as the Company executed a plan to reduce headcount by 50 people. The staff reductions occurred across all areas of the Company through relocation and centralization of certain functions and reducing headcount in certain administrative functions. Of this amount, $1,116 has not been paid at October 31, 2003 and will be paid over the balance of fiscal 2004 and into fiscal 2005.
4. BANKING FACILITIES
During the quarter, the Company cancelled its existing revolving line of credit. On November 10, 2003, the Company obtained a 3 year operating bank line of up to Cdn. $20,000,000, bearing interest at a variable rate based on the bank's prime lending rate plus 0.25%. In addition, the Company is obligated to pay a commitment fee of 0.25% on the unused portion. The line is secured by substantially all of the North American assets of the Company, and availability is based on quality and aging of Accounts Receivable in North America.
5. SHARE CAPITAL
Pursuant to a short form prospectus filed on August 21, 2003, the Company issued 4,450,000 common shares and a further 338,000 common shares through an over allotment option. The price per share for the offering was $4.50, and the net proceeds from the issue was $20,479 (net of share issue costs of $1,527 and related tax benefit of $460).
6. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
The Company has established a stock option plan to encourage ownership in the Company's shares by directors, officers and employees of the Company and its subsidiaries. Options are granted with an exercise price equal to, or greater than the market price of the common shares of the Company at the date of granting, for a term of five years, vesting at five percent per three-month period.
For a full description of the Company's stock-based compensation, reference should be made to Leitch's 2003 Audited Consolidated Annual Financial Statements.
The Company applies the intrinsic value based method of accounting for its fixed employee stock compensation plan. Accordingly, no compensation expense has been recognized for the three and six months ended October 31, 2003 and 2002. Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants Handbook Section 3870, "Stock-based compensation and other stock-based payments" provides that companies should also disclose, on a pro forma basis, net earnings and earnings per share had the Company adopted the fair value method for accounting for stock options. Had compensation expense been determined based on the fair value at the grant dates for stock options granted on or after May 1, 2001, the Company's results would have been as follows:
| | Three months ended October 31, 2003
| | Three months ended October 31, 2002
| | Six months ended October 31, 2003
| | Six months ended October 31, 2002

The fair value of each stock option grant was determined on the date of grant. The weighted average fair value of a stock option with an exercise price greater than the estimated market price of a common share on the date of grant for the three and six months ended October 31, 2003 was $1.57 and for the three and six months ended October 31, 2002 was $2.90. The Company had no stock option grants during the three months ended October 31, 2003. The fair value of the stock options was determined using the Black Scholes option pricing model, based on the following assumptions:
| | Three months ended October 31, 20031
| | Three months ended October 31, 2002
| | Six months ended October 31, 2003
| | Six months ended October 31, 2002

Note 1 — No data is provided for the three months ended October 31, 2003 as no stock options were granted during this period.
Because additional stock options are expected to be granted each year, the above pro forma disclosure is not representative of pro forma effects on reported financial results for future periods.
