INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT
Digital Optics Corporation:
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Digital Optics Corporation (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and of cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform an audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the 2005 and 2004 financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Digital Optics Corporation as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America.

DIGITAL OPTICS CORPORATION
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2005 AND 2004
(1) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Operations
Digital Optics Corporation (the “Company”) is a worldwide leader in the technology development, design, manufacture and marketing of micro optical sub-assemblies (OSAs) that are used in high-performance semiconductor equipment and other industries. The Company sells to customers located throughout the world.
Use of Accounting Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of certain assets and liabilities and disclosures. Accordingly, the actual amounts could differ from those estimates. Any adjustments applied to estimated amounts are recognized in the year in which such adjustments are determined.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments having a original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains cash deposits with financial institutions that at times exceed federally insured limits. As of December 31, 2005 and 2004 cash deposits exceeded federally insured limits by approximately $6,590,000 and $4,800,000, respectively. Due to financial strength of the institution, management does not believe there is significant risk of loss.
Accounts Receivable
The Company extends credit to its customers. By their nature, accounts receivable involve risk, including the credit risk of nonperformance by the customer. The Company maintains allowances ($200,231 and $186,331 as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively) which management believes are adequate to absorb estimated losses to be incurred in realizing the recorded amounts of its accounts receivable. These allowances are determined by management based on historical sales, historical loss levels, and an analysis of collectibility of individual accounts. When an account is determined to be uncollectible, it is then charged directly to bad debt expense. Receivables are considered past due based on contractual and invoice terms.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out (FIFO method). The Company provides for potentially obsolete or slow-moving inventory based on management’s analysis of inventory levels and future sales forecasts.
Property
Property is recorded at cost. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, generally ranging from three to ten years for equipment and 39 years for buildings. Gains and losses from disposals are included in the statement of operations.
Patent and License Agreements and Other Intangibles
Costs associated with patents and license agreements are recorded at cost. Patents are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives, ranging from 10 to 20 years. License agreements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the agreements. Other intangibles are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives.
Revenue Recognition
The Company accounts for its revenues under the provisions of Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 104, “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements.” Under the provisions of SAB No. 104, the Company recognizes revenues when there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement, delivery has occurred, the fee is fixed and determinable, and collectibility of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured.
Deferred Revenue
Deferred revenue consists of billings on production and prototype orders that have not been completed by the end of the financial reporting period. Costs incurred on these orders are reflected in work in process inventories.
Stock-based Compensation
The Company’s employee stock option plans are accounted for in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion (“APB”) No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and complies with the disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” and SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, Transition and Disclosure.”
The Company accounts for stock issued to non-employees in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 123 and Emerging Issues Task Force Consensus (“EITF”) No. 96-18, “Accounting for Equity Instruments That are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services.” Under SFAS No. 123 and EITF No. 96-18, stock option awards issued to non-employees are accounted for at fair value using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The Company believes that the fair value of the stock options are more reliably measured than the fair value of the services received. The fair value of each non-employee stock award is re-measured at each reporting date until a commitment date is reached, which is generally the vesting date.
The following table illustrates the effect on net income (loss) if the Company had applied the fair value method as prescribed by SFAS No. 123. The estimated fair value of each Company option is calculated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model (in thousands):
| | | | | | | | |
| | Years Ended December 31,
| |
| | 2005
| | | 2004
| |
Net income/(loss)—as reported | | $ | (61 | ) | | $ | (3,663 | ) |
Less: Stock-based employee compensation expense determined under fair value based method | | | (73 | ) | | | (46 | ) |

|
|
|
Net income (loss)—as adjusted | | $ | (134 | ) | | $ | (3,709 | ) |
| |
|
|
| |
|
|
|
The weighted-average fair value, as defined by SFAS No. 123, of options granted for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 were $1.38, and $0.30, respectively.
The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The Black-Scholes model, as well as other currently accepted option valuation models, was developed to estimate the fair value of freely tradable, fully transferable options without vesting restrictions, and these assumptions differ significantly from the characteristics of Company stock option grants. The following weighted average assumptions are used to estimate the fair value of stock option grants in 2005 and 2004:
| | | | | | |
| | Years Ended December 31,
| |
| | 2005
| | | 2004
| |
Expected life (years) | | 5.0 | | | 5.0 | |
Risk-free interest rate | | 3.76 | % | | 3.41 | % |
Dividend yield | | 0.0 | % | | 0.0 | % |
Expected volatility | | 65 | % | | 70 | % |
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123R (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment,” which is a revision of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.” SFAS No. 123R supersedes APB No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees”, and amends SFAS No. 95, “Statement of Cash Flows.” Generally, the approach in SFAS No. 123R is similar to the approach described in SFAS No. 123. However, SFAS No. 123R requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values. Pro forma disclosure will no longer be an alternative. SFAS No. 123R will be effective in fiscal periods beginning December 15, 2005. In the first quarter of 2006, the Company will apply modified prospective application method and adopt SFAS No. 123R.
Advertising
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising expense for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 was approximately $31,000 and $19,000, respectively.

The Company includes shipping and handling costs in cost of goods sold, as incurred.

In June 2002, the Company entered into agreements with certain employees whereby the Company repurchased 145,000 shares of common stock from the employees. The employees received notes from the Company as consideration for the shares of common stock. These notes are unsecured and accrue interest at a rate of 5.62% per annum. As discussed above, these notes had an outstanding principal balance of $14,146 and $16,879 at December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.
(6) Leases
As of December 31, 2005, the Company had no significant non-cancellable operating or capital leases with initial or remaining lease terms in excess of one year. Lease expense for the year ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 was approximately $30,000 and $28,000, respectively.
(7) Stockholders’ Equity
Mandatorily Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock
The Series 1 Preferred Stock Purchase and Exchange Agreement was entered into July 23, 2003. The Series 1 Stock is convertible into a certain number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock. The conversion ratio used to determine the number of shares of Common Stock into which Series 1 Stock is convertible is currently 1 to 1. The conversion ratio is subject to adjustment by the anti-dilution provisions of the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation.
The holders of the Series 1 Stock vote together with the holders of the Common Stock on an as-if-converted basis. In addition, the holders of the Series 1 Stock have certain voting protective provisions that require the Company to obtain the affirmative vote of the holders of a certain percentage of the Series 1 Stock before the Company can take certain actions.
In addition, the Series 1 Stock has a liquidation preference over the Common Stock that is payable upon certain Liquidating Events (as defined in the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation). The per share liquidation preference for the Series 1 Stock is currently $4.50. After the payment to the holders of Series 1 Stock upon a Liquidating Event the remaining amounts to be distributed, if any, shall be distributed among the holders of the Common Stock and the Series 1 Stock pro rata based on the number of shares of Common Stock held by such stockholders (assuming full conversion of the Series 1 Stock).
The Company’s certificate of incorporation also provides for the redemption of the Series 1 Stock after July 1, 2008 upon the election of the holders of a majority of the Series 1 outstanding shares of Series 1 Stock.
