Explanatory Note

Symmetricom, Inc. (the “Company”, “we”, “us” or “our”) is filing this Amendment No. 1 (the “Amended Report”) to its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A for its fiscal quarterly period ended September 30, 2007, originally filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, (“SEC”), on November 9, 2007 (the “Original Filing”), to amend and restate its condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2007 and October 1, 2006 and the condensed consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for the three-month period ended October 1, 2006. In connection with the restatement, we reevaluated the effectiveness of our controls and procedures and, accordingly, include revised disclosure in this Amended Report under Part I, Item 4, “Controls and Procedures.”

Subsequent to the original filing, on April 17, 2008, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, following a review initiated by the Audit Committee with the assistance of independent legal counsel and a forensic accounting firm, concluded that, due to errors in accounting for accrued liabilities related to inventory receipts, our financial statements for the fiscal years and interim periods from the fiscal year ended June 30, 2002 through fiscal year ended July 1, 2007 and for the first quarter of fiscal 2008 ended September 30, 2007 should no longer be relied upon. The restatement corrects accounts payable balances, cost of sales, income tax provision (benefit) and related non-current deferred tax assets and retained earnings for the periods affected. The cumulative impact to retained earnings for fiscal years 2002 through 2007 was an increase of approximately $0.2 million, with no impact on net income in the first quarter of fiscal 2008.

Except as discussed above, we have not modified or updated disclosures presented in the Original Filing, except as required to reflect the effects of the restatement, in this Amended Report. Accordingly, this Amended Report does not reflect events occurring after our Original Filing or modify or update those disclosures affected by subsequent events, except as specifically referenced herein. Information not affected by the restatement is unchanged and reflects the disclosures made at the time of the Original Filing. The following items have been amended as a result of the restatement:

PART I.	Item 1.	Financial Statements (Unaudited):
		Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets—September 30, 2007 (As restated) and July 1, 2007
		Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations—Three months ended September 30, 2007 and October 1, 2006 (As restated)
		Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows—Three months ended September 30, 2007 and October 1, 2006 (As restated)
		Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
	Item 2.	Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
	Item 4.	Controls and Procedures

PART II.	Item 1A	Risk Factors
	Item 6	Exhibits

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A should be read in conjunction with our filings made with the SEC subsequent to the date of the Original Filing, including our Form 10-K/A for fiscal year ended July 1, 2007, which we are filing concurrently with this Amended Report, as well as our Current Reports on Form 8-K filed subsequent to the date of the Original Filing.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Note 1. Basis of Presentation and Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company included herein are unaudited and reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of the management, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in Symmetricom’s Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended July 1, 2007. The results of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2007 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be anticipated for the entire fiscal year ending June 29, 2008.

The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of July 1, 2007 has been derived from the audited and restated financial statements as of that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.

Fiscal Quarter

Our fiscal quarter is 13 weeks ending on the Sunday closest to the end of the calendar quarter.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. SFAS No. 159 permits companies to choose to measure certain financial instruments and other items at fair value. The standard requires that unrealized gains and losses are reported in earnings for items measured using the fair value option. SFAS No. 159 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning June 30, 2008. We are currently assessing the potential impact that the adoption of SFAS No. 159 will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 158, Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans, an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 106, and 132(R). SFAS No. 158 requires employers to recognize a net liability or asset and an offsetting adjustment to accumulated other comprehensive income to report the funded status of defined benefit pension and other post-retirement benefit plans. Previous standards required employers to disclose the complete funded status of its plans only in the notes to the financial statements. Additionally, SFAS No. 158 requires employers to measure plan assets and obligations at their year-end balance sheet date. Guidance relating to the recognition of the over or under funded status of the plan and additional disclosure requirements is effective for periods ending after December 15, 2006. Guidance relating to the measurement date of the plans is effective for the years ending after December 15, 2008. We do not believe that SFAS No. 158 will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, which provides guidance for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities. The standard also responds to investors’ requests for more information about (1) the extent to which companies measure assets and liabilities at fair value, (2) the information used to measure fair value, and (3) the effect that fair-value measurements have on earnings. SFAS No. 157 will apply whenever another standard requires (or permits) assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value. The standard does not expand the use of fair value to any new circumstances. SFAS No. 157 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning June 30, 2008. We are currently assessing the potential impact that the adoption of SFAS No. 157 will have on our consolidated financial statements.

Note 2. Discontinued Operations

During the third quarter of fiscal 2007, we discontinued the operation of our Specialty Manufacturing/Other business segment. Specialty Manufacturing/Other was part of our Telecommunications Solutions Division. This has been accounted for as a discontinued operation and, accordingly, the results of operations have been excluded from continuing operations in the consolidated statements of operations. During fiscal 2007, we recognized a $0.2 million gain, net of taxes, all of which was attributable to income from discontinued operations.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2008, we recognized a gain of approximately $0.1 million, net of taxes, attributable to discontinued operations, that was primarily due to the collection of a fully reserved receivable.

Note 3. Income Taxes

On July 2, 2007, we adopted the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Interpretation No. 48 (“FIN 48”), Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes — an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 , which provides a financial statement recognition threshold and measurement attribute for a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Under FIN 48, we may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon

ultimate settlement. FIN 48 also provides guidance on de-recognition of income tax assets and liabilities, classification of current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities, accounting for interest and penalties associated with tax positions, and income tax disclosures.

The adoption of FIN 48 had the following impact on our financial statements:

• increased goodwill by $0.1 million;

• decreased long-term assets (non-current deferred tax assets) by $4.1 million;

• increased long-term obligations by $0.7 million;

• increased long-term deferred tax liabilities by $0.4 million;

• decreased retained earnings by $0.4 million; and

• decreased our income taxes payable by $4.7 million.

As of July 2, 2007, we had $14.6 million of unrecognized tax benefits of which $8.4 million, if recognized, would impact our effective tax rate. We also had $4.1 million of unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, would result in a decrease to goodwill recorded in purchase business combinations. The impact on net income reflects the liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits net of certain deferred tax assets and the federal tax benefit of state income tax items.

Our policy is to include interest and penalties, when material, related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. As of July 2, 2007 we had no accrued interest related to uncertain tax positions on our balance sheet.

We file income tax returns in the United States (“U.S.”) and a number of U.S. state and foreign jurisdictions. The tax years ended June 2002 forward remain open to examination by the major taxing jurisdictions in which we operate which include the U.S., California, Puerto Rico, and Germany. We are not currently under examination by any income tax authority.

As of September 30, 2007, we had $14.6 million of liabilities from unrecognized tax benefits that are included in deferred and other tax liabilities, net. The total liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits relate primarily to the allocations of revenue and costs among our global operations and credits that may be available to reduce taxes. There were no material changes related to activities during the first quarter of fiscal 2008. At September 30, 2007, we had no accrued interest related to uncertain tax positions on our balance sheet.

Total amortization	$	16,771

During the first quarter of fiscal 2008, we determined that the weighted-average amortization period for $2.0 million of developed technology purchased in the fourth quarter of 2007 is three years.

Intangible asset amortization expense for the first quarter of fiscal 2008 and 2007 was approximately $1.1 million and $0.9 million, respectively.

Note 7. Stockholders’ Equity

Stock Award Activity

For the three months ended September 30, 2007, we granted non performance-based options to purchase 489,000 shares of Symmetricom’s common stock, and awarded 480,000 shares of restricted stock. Our right to repurchase restricted stock generally lapses over the same three-year term as the vesting period applicable to the stock options.

The total number of in-the-money options outstanding and exercisable as of September 30, 2007 was as follows:

		Weighted

		Remaining	Weighted		9/30/2007		Intrinsic		Aggregate
	Number of	Contractual	Average		Closing		Value		Intrinsic

Outstanding at September 30, 2007	618	3.79	$	4.07	$	4.70	$	0.63	$	391

Exercisable at September 30, 2007	614	3.78	$	4.07	$	4.70	$	0.63	$	390

The aggregate intrinsic value in the preceding table represents the total pre-tax value of stock options outstanding as of September 30, 2007, based on our common stock closing price of $4.70 on September 30, 2007, which would have been received by the option holders had all option holders exercised their options as of that date.

The weighted average estimated fair value of options granted was $2.05 per share in the first quarter of fiscal 2008 and $2.82 per share in the corresponding quarter of fiscal 2007. Our calculations were made using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The fair value of Symmetricom’s stock-based awards to employees was estimated assuming no expected dividend and the following weighted-average assumptions for the first three months of fiscal 2008 and 2007, as follows:

	Three months ended
	September 30, 2007		October 1, 2006
Expected life (in years)	3.8		3.5
Risk-free interest rate	4.5	%	4.8	%
Volatility	45.6	%	50.9	%

We recorded stock-based compensation expense of $1.6 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2008, which includes the net cumulative impact of 3.0% estimated future annual forfeitures in the determination of the expense in the period, rather than recording forfeitures when they occur. At September 30, 2007, the total compensation cost related to unvested stock-based awards granted to employees, directors and consultants under the Company’s stock option plans but not yet recognized was approximately $8.8 million, net of estimated forfeitures of $0.7 million. This cost will be amortized on an accelerated method basis over a period of approximately 1.8 years and will be adjusted for subsequent changes in estimated forfeitures.

Stock Repurchase Program

On August 8, 2007, the Board of Directors authorized management to repurchase up to approximately 2.9 million shares of Symmetricom common stock, adding 2.0 million shares to a previously authorized program with no termination date. During the first three months of fiscal 2008, we repurchased 940,656 shares of common stock pursuant to the repurchase program for an aggregate price of approximately $4.8 million.

As of September 30, 2007, the total number of shares available for repurchase under the repurchase program authorized by the Board of Directors was approximately 1.9 million.

Note 8. Integration and Restructuring Charges

The following tables show the details of the restructuring cost accruals, which consist of facilities and severance costs, for the year ended July 1, 2007 and the three-month period ended September 30, 2007:

Note 9. Comprehensive Income

Comprehensive income is comprised of two components: net income and other comprehensive income. Other comprehensive income refers to revenue, expenses, gains and losses that under generally accepted accounting principles are recorded as an element of stockholders’ equity but are excluded from net income. Other comprehensive income is comprised of unrealized gains and losses, net of taxes, on marketable securities categorized as available-for-sale and foreign currency translation adjustments. The components of comprehensive income, net of tax, are as follows:

	Three Months Ended
	September 30,			October 1,
	2007			2006
	(in thousands)

Net income (loss)	$	(243	)	$	3,852
Other comprehensive income, net of taxes:
Foreign currency translation adjustments	(178		)	(17		)
Unrealized gain (loss) on investments	(58		)	63
Other comprehensive income (loss)	(236		)	46
Total comprehensive income (loss)	$	(479	)	$	3,898

Note 10. Net Earnings (Loss) Per Share

Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period less unvested shares of restricted common stock. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and common equivalent shares from stock options, warrants and unvested restricted stock using the treasury method, except when anti-dilutive.

The following table reconciles the number of shares utilized in the earnings (loss) per share calculations:

Note 11. Contingencies

We formerly leased a tract of land in Texas for our operations. Those operations involved the use of solvents and, at the end of the lease, we remediated an area where the solvents had been deposited on the ground and obtained regulatory approval for that remedial activity. In 1996, an environmental investigation of the property detected those same contaminants in groundwater in excess of then current regulatory standards. The groundwater contamination has migrated to some adjacent properties. We have entered into the Texas Natural Resource Conservation Commission’s Voluntary Cleanup Program (the “Voluntary Cleanup Program”) to obtain regulatory approval for closure of this site and a release from liability to the State of Texas for subsequent landowners and lenders. We have notified adjacent property owners affected by the contamination of participation in the Voluntary Cleanup Program. On May 20, 2004, we received a demand from the owner of several adjacent lots for damages in the amount of $1.3 million, as well as seeking an indemnity for the contamination and a promise to remediate the contamination. On March 14, 2006, the adjacent property owner filed suit in Probate Court No. 1, Travis County, Texas (Anna B. Miller, Individually and as Executrix of the Estate of Robert L. Miller, et al. vs. Austron, Inc., et al.), seeking damages. Symmetricom has not yet been served in this matter. We are continuing to work on the remediation of the formerly leased site as well as the adjacent properties and intend to defend this lawsuit vigorously. As of September 30, 2007, we had an accrual of $0.5 million for remediation costs, appraisal fees and other ongoing monitoring costs.

Under the indemnification provisions of our standard sales contracts, we agree to defend the customer against third party claims asserting infringement of certain intellectual property rights, which may include patents, copyrights, trademarks or trade secrets, and to pay any judgments entered on such claims against the reseller/customer. The exposure to us under these indemnification provisions is generally limited to the total amount paid by the customer under the agreement. However, certain agreements include indemnification provisions that could potentially expose us to losses in excess of the amount received under the agreement. To date, there have been no claims under such indemnification provisions. As such, we believe the estimated fair value of these indemnification agreements is not material.

We are also a party to certain other claims in the normal course of our operations. While the results of these claims cannot be predicted with any certainty, we believe that the final outcome of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position and results of operations.

Note 12. Business Segment Information

Symmetricom is organized into five reportable segments that are within three divisions:

Telecom Solutions Division

There are three reportable segments within the Telecom Solutions Division:

• Wireline Products consists principally of Building Integrated Timing Supply, or BITS, based on quartz, rubidium and Global Positioning System (GPS) technologies. Our Wireline Products provide highly accurate and uninterruptible timing to meet the synchronization requirements of telecommunication networks.

• Wireless/OEM Products includes our OEM base station timing products that are designed to deliver stable timing to cellular/PCS base stations through a GPS receiver to capture cesium-based time signals produced by GPS satellites.

• Global Services offers a broad portfolio of services for our customers around the world.

Timing, Test and Measurement Division

The Timing, Test and Measurement Division products are precision time and frequency systems that are important to communications systems of wireline, wireless, satellite and computer network technologies for government, power utilities, aerospace, defense and enterprise markets.

Quality of Experience Assurance Division

The Quality of Experience (QoE) Assurance Division products are hardware and software-based probes (and/or embedded agents) that are distributed throughout an IP (Internet Protocol) network in order to monitor network and application performance, and particularly to correlate how those factors impact end users’ QoE. The primary application for these system-level solutions is for IPTV (Internet Protocol Television), VoD (video on demand), ITV (Internet television), and other IP-based video delivery mechanisms.

For each of our segments, we have separate financial information, including gross profit amounts, which are evaluated regularly by our Chief Operating Decision Maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. We do not allocate assets or specific operating expenses to these individual operating segments. Therefore, the segment information reported here includes only net revenue and gross profit.

Note 14. Subsequent Event

On May 7, 2008, we received a notice of acceleration from the trustee under the indenture governing our $120.0 million principal amount of 3.25% Senior Contingent Convertible Subordinated Notes due 2025. The notice states that our failure to file our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December 30, 2007 violates certain provisions of the indenture. The acceleration letter declares that the principal amount outstanding under the Notes, together with any accrued and unpaid interest, and fees and expenses, are immediately due and payable. This notice of acceleration relates to the trustee’s and certain bondholders’ previous notice received by the Company on or about March 3, 2008 stating that our failure to file our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December 30, 2007 with the SEC violates provisions of the indenture. We believe we are not in default under the indenture. We also believe that no event of default entitling holders to accelerate has occurred with respect to the notes. We believe the indenture requires us to provide to the trustee, copies of the reports we are required to file with the SEC, such as our quarterly and annual reports, within 15 days of filing such reports with the SEC rather than the date such reports are due to be filed with the SEC.

Note 15. Restatement of Consolidated Financial Statements

Correction of an error related to presentation of purchases and maturities of short- term investments (“Adjustment #1”)

Purchases of short-term investments and maturities of short-term investments that were previously reported net in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows have been corrected to present the gross activity for the three months ended October 1, 2006.

Correction of an error in accounting for accrued liabilities related to inventory receipts (“Adjustment #2”)

Subsequent to the filing of the Company’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q with the SEC on November 9, 2007, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors, following a review initiated by the Audit Committee with the assistance of independent legal counsel and a forensic accounting firm, concluded that, due to errors in accounting for accrued liabilities related to inventory receipts, the related financial statements for the first quarter of fiscal 2008 ended September 30, 2007 should not be relied upon. As a result, accounts payable balances, cost of sales, income tax provision (benefit), deferred tax assets and retained earnings have been restated. In addition, the segment information has been adjusted to reflect the changes to cost of sales and gross profit.

The impact of the restatements on the consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2007 and the consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for the three-month period ended October 1, 2006 (the prior fiscal year quarter) are detailed in the tables below:

We expressly disclaim any obligation or undertaking to release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statements contained herein to reflect any change in our expectations with regard thereto or any change in events, conditions or circumstances or on which any such statement is based.

All references to “Symmetricom,” “we,” “us,” and “our” mean Symmetricom, Inc. and its subsidiaries, except where it is made clear that the term means only the parent company.

Overview

Symmetricom is a leading supplier of synchronization and timing products to industry, government, research centers and aerospace markets. We supply solutions for customers who demand reliable products and engineering expertise in a variety of applications, including network synchronization, timing, testing, verification and/or the measurement of time and frequency-based signals. We design and/or manufacture rubidium clocks, crystal oscillators, cesium clocks and hydrogen maser clocks. Our products include synchronization network elements, timing elements and business broadband access devices for wireline and wireless networks as well as the provision of professional services. Our products play an essential role in network operations, quality of service of wireline, wireless and broadband communications networks, enabling our customers to increase performance and efficiency in their communications infrastructures. During fiscal 2007, we formed the Quality of Experience Assurance Division to pursue potential opportunities in the quality of experience (QoE) market for video services. We believe that the QoE market holds the promise of faster revenue growth in the future than our historic lines of businesses. The acquisition of QoSmetrics S.A. in fiscal 2007 formed the nucleus of this business.

Symmetricom’s customers include worldwide public network providers, incumbent local exchange carriers (ILECs), public telephone and telegraph companies (PTTs), competitive local exchange carriers (CLECs), other telephone companies, wireless service providers, cable television operators, distributors and systems integrators, communications original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), aerospace contractors, governments and research facilities.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, which requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosures at the date of our financial statements. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates and judgments. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

An accounting policy is deemed to be critical if it requires an accounting estimate to be made based on assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time the estimate is made, if different estimates reasonably could have been used, or if changes in the estimate that are reasonably likely to occur could materially impact the financial statements. With the exception of the below paragraph that discusses the impact of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Interpretation No. 48 (“FIN 48”), Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes — an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109, on our critical accounting policy and estimates for accounting for income taxes, we believe that there have been no significant changes during the three months ended September 30, 2007 to the items that we disclosed as our critical accounting policies and estimates in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended July 1, 2007.

On July 2, 2007, we adopted the provisions of the FIN 48, which provides a financial statement recognition threshold and measurement attribute for a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Under FIN 48, we may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. FIN 48 also provides guidance on de-recognition of income tax assets and liabilities, classification of current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities, accounting for interest and penalties associated with tax positions, and income tax disclosures. During our first quarter of fiscal 2008, we adjusted our policy in the accounting for and presentation of uncertain tax positions in order to comply with the interpretive guidance set forth in FIN 48.

Percentage of Revenue	100.0		%	100.0		%

Net revenue consists of sales of products, software licenses and services. In the first quarter of fiscal 2008, net revenue increased by $3.5 million to $50.7 million from $47.3 million in the corresponding quarter of fiscal 2007. This increase was primarily attributable to a $5.1 million or 33.6% increase in revenue from Timing, Test and Measurement Division due to the Timing Solutions Corporation products acquired on October 2, 2006 and higher sales of products to the Government for communication programs in the intelligence community, the Air Force and the Coast Guard. In addition, revenues from the Global Services segment increased by $1.4 million or 51.1% primarily due to installation services at Verizon Communications Inc. Wireless/OEM Products revenue decreased by $2.9 million or 34.3% compared to the corresponding quarter in fiscal 2007 due to a reduction in purchases from major OEM customers. In the first quarter of fiscal 2008, Wireline revenue had a relatively slight decline of 1.6% compared to the same period in prior year. As stated in the Fiscal Year 2008 Outlook in our Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended July 1, 2007, we do not expect substantial orders from two large customers in the first half of fiscal 2008, which will cause our revenue to be below the level in the second half of fiscal 2007. We expect orders from these two large customers to increase in the second half of fiscal 2008, as the calendar 2008 capital expenditure budgets for these customers are approved. Revenue for the Quality of Experience Assurance Division, which was formed on January 2, 2007, was $0.2 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2008.

Percentage of Revenue	43.2		%	46.9		%

Gross profit in the first quarter of fiscal 2008 decreased by $0.2 million or 1.1% compared to the corresponding quarter of fiscal 2007. Gross profit for Wireline Products decreased by $1.4 million or 11.2%, which is greater than the revenue decrease of 1.6%, primarily due to higher sales volume for major projects in Asia that are at lower margins. Gross profit for the Wireless/OEM Products decreased by $0.5 million or 19.6%, which was lower than the revenue decrease of 34.3% for the same period due primarily to increased prices and a more favorable product mix. Gross profit for Global Services decreased $0.2 million or 18.5%, as compared to the 51.1% revenue increase for the same period due to large volume increases in installation services that are at a lower margin. Gross profit for the Timing, Test and Measurement Division increased by $1.7 million or 24.3%, which was lower than the revenue increase of 33.6% for the same period due primarily to volume increases for Timing Solutions Corporation products that are at lower margins. Gross profit for the Quality of Experience Assurance Division, which was formed on January 2, 2007, was $0.1 million.

Other cost of sales increased $0.1 million or 9.2% due primarily to additional amortization of purchased technology related to the acquisitions of Timing Solutions Corporation on October 2, 2006 and QoSmetrics, which formed our Quality of Experience Assurance Division, on January 2, 2007.

These expenses increased by 16.2% to $15.5 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2008 compared to $13.4 million for the corresponding quarter of fiscal 2007. This $2.2 million increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily attributable to the increased expenses for the Quality of Experience Assurance Division formed on January 2, 2007, higher stock compensation expenses and higher commission expense for revenue increases.

Amortization of intangibles increased by 122.2% to $0.3 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2008 compared to $0.1 million during the corresponding quarter of fiscal 2007 due to the acquisitions of Timing Solutions Corporation and QoSmetrics that both occurred subsequent to the first quarter of fiscal 2007.

In the third quarter of fiscal 2007, we discontinued the operation of the Specialty Manufacturing/Other business segment. The gain of approximately $0.1 million, net of tax, for the first quarter of fiscal 2008, was primarily due to the collection of a fully reserved receivable.

Key Operating Metrics

Key operating metrics for measuring our performance include sales backlog and contract revenue. A comparison of these metrics for the first quarter of fiscal 2008 with the end of fiscal 2007 is listed below:

Sales Backlog:

Our backlog consists of firm orders that have yet to be shipped to the customer, or may not be shippable to a customer until a future period. Most orders included in backlog can be rescheduled or cancelled by customers without significant penalty. Historically, a substantial portion of net revenue in any fiscal period has been derived from orders received during that fiscal period.

Our backlog amounted to $50.4 million as of September 30, 2007, compared to $51.9 million as of July 1, 2007. Our backlog, which is shippable within the next six months, was $40.0 million as of September 30, 2007, compared to $43.4 million as of July 1, 2007. The decline in sales backlog is primarily due to the lower order volume from two major customers as discussed previously.

Contract Revenue:

As of September 30, 2007, we had approximately $9.3 million in contract revenue to be performed and recognized within the next 36 months, compared to approximately $6.3 million in contract revenue that was to be performed and recognized within 36 months following July 1, 2007. These amounts have been accounted for as part of our sales backlog discussed above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of September 30, 2007, working capital was $220.6 million compared to $217.1 million as of July 1, 2007. Cash and cash equivalents as of September 30, 2007 increased to $52.1 million from $37.6 million as of July 1, 2007. This increase was primarily the result of a decrease in accounts receivable and an increase in maturities of short-term investments. Short-term investments decreased from $138.6 million as of July 1, 2007 to $120.6 million as of September 30, 2007. This decrease was attributable primarily to an increase in maturities of short-term investments during the first 3 months of fiscal 2008.

The $3.1 million net cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended September 30, 2007 was primarily attributable to non-cash expenses related to depreciation and amortization of $2.5 million, stock-based compensation expenses of $1.6 million and a $6.2 million decrease in accounts receivable. This was partially offset by an inventory increase of $2.9 million, an accounts payable decrease of $2.7 million, and an increase in prepaids and other assets of $1.4 million. The $16.8 million net cash provided by investing activities for the

three months ended September 30, 2007 was primarily attributable to $42.2 million in maturities of short-term investments, that was partially offset by $24.4 million in purchases of short-term investments and $1.0 million in purchases of plant and equipment. The $5.2 million net cash used for financing activities was primarily attributable to $4.9 million used to repurchase common stock under our stock buyback program.

Our day sales outstanding in accounts receivable was 56 days as of September 30, 2007, compared to 59 days at July 2, 2007.

In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007, we purchased asset-backed commercial paper with a $7.8 million par value maturing on March 13, 2008. At the time of purchase, the investment’s portfolio consisted primarily of triple-A rated assets, with sub-prime loan assets making up approximately 23% of the portfolio. Since the date of purchase, the entity issuing the commercial paper was declared insolvent and entered receivership. The receiver then announced that it is in exclusive discussions with a major financial institution to purchase the entity’s assets and restructure its existing debt. The restructuring plan may include payout at par over time, but this has not been announced and may not necessarily materialize. During the second quarter of fiscal 2008, our investment manager advised us that although a temporary impairment will be recognized, full repayment is expected. Accordingly, no impairment loss was recorded at September 30, 2007.

We believe that our existing cash resources will be sufficient to meet our anticipated operating and working capital expenditure needs in the ordinary course of business for at least the next 12 months and the foreseeable future. We base our expense levels in part on our expectation of future revenue levels. If our revenue for a particular period is lower than we expect, we may take steps to reduce our operating expenses accordingly. If cash generated from operations is insufficient to satisfy our liquidity requirements or if we require additional capital resources to grow our business or to acquire complementary technologies and businesses in the future, we may seek to issue additional equity securities or obtain additional debt financing. Additional financing may not be available at all or on terms favorable to us. Additional financing may also be dilutive to our existing stockholders. As a result of our delayed filing of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December 30, 2007, we will be ineligible to register our securities on Form S-3 for sale by us or resale by others until we have timely filed all periodic reports under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 for a period of twelve calendar months and any portion of a month from the due date of the last untimely report. We may use Form S-1 to raise capital or complete acquisitions, but doing so could increase transaction costs and adversely impact our ability to raise capital or complete acquisitions of other companies in a timely manner. We do not have any arrangements or relationships with entities that are not consolidated into our financial statements that are reasonably likely to materially affect our liquidity or the availability of our capital resources.

Wells Fargo Line of Credit

On May 1, 2004, we entered into a credit agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association to obtain a revolving line of credit up to $5.0 million to be used as working capital. On June 1, 2005 this agreement was amended to allow us to increase the line of credit up to $10.0 million. On November 1, 2006 the agreement was amended to lower the line of credit to $3.0 million. The line of credit contains certain financial covenants and restrictions. At the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2008, we were not in compliance with one of the covenants under the agreement, which requires us to reflect a net profit on a quarterly basis. Subsequently, the bank issued a waiver to us on October 29, 2007 concerning this covenant for the first quarter. No borrowings on this facility were outstanding as of September 30, 2007. On November 1, 2007 the line of credit expired and was not renewed since we determined it was no longer needed due to our current liquidity position.

items measured using the fair value option. SFAS No. 159 will be effective for our fiscal year beginning June 30, 2008. We are currently assessing the potential impact that the adoption of SFAS No. 159 will have on our consolidated financial statements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Interest Rate Exposure

As of September 30, 2007, we had short-term investments of $120.6 million. Currently our short-term investment portfolio consists of corporate and government debt securities. Our exposure to market risk due to fluctuations in interest rates relates primarily to our corporate debt securities, which are subject to interest rate risk in as much as their fair value will fall if market interest rates increase. If market interest rates were to increase or decrease immediately and uniformly by 10% from the levels prevailing at September 30, 2007, the fair value of the portfolio would not change by a material amount. We do not use derivative financial instruments to mitigate the risks inherent in these securities. However, we do attempt to reduce these risks by typically limiting the maturity date of such securities to no more than nine months, placing our investments with high credit quality issuers and limiting the amount of credit exposure with any one issuer. In addition, we have the ability and currently intend to hold these investments to recovery, which may be maturity, and therefore we believe that reductions in the value of these securities attributable to short-term fluctuations in interest rates would not materially harm our business.

On June 8, 2005, we issued convertible subordinated notes with a fixed rate of interest of 3.25%, which would have no interest rate risk impact to our business.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Exposure

Our exposure to market risk due to fluctuations in currency exchange rates relates primarily to the intercompany balances with our subsidiaries in the United Kingdom and Germany. Although we transact business with various countries, settlement amounts are usually based on U.S. currency. Transaction gains or losses have not been significant in the past and we do not presently engage in hedging activity. Based on our foreign currency denominated assets at September 30, 2007, a hypothetical 10% adverse change in British Pounds and Euro against U.S. dollars would not result in a material foreign exchange loss. Consequently, we do not expect that reductions in the value of such assets or other accounts denominated in foreign currencies resulting from even a sudden and significant fluctuation in foreign exchange rates would have a direct material impact on our business.

Notwithstanding the foregoing analysis of the direct effects of interest rate and currency exchange rate fluctuations on the value of certain of our investments and accounts, the indirect effects of such fluctuations could have a materially harmful effect on our business. For example, international demand for our products is affected by foreign currency exchange rates. In addition, interest rate fluctuations may affect the buying patterns of our customers. Furthermore, interest rate and currency exchange rate fluctuations have broad influence on the general condition of the U.S., foreign and global economies, which could materially harm our business.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

As disclosed in the Explanatory Note of this Amended Report and in Note 15 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Amended Report, the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors, following a review initiated by the Audit Committee with the assistance of independent legal counsel and a forensic accounting firm, concluded that, due to errors in accounting for accrued liabilities related to inventory receipts, the Company’s financial statements for the first quarter of fiscal 2008 ended September 30, 2007should no longer be relied upon. This was due to a design deficiency in the reconciliation and review process. To correct this material weakness in the

internal control environment, management is in the process of instituting changes in its controls and procedures to ensure that the accrued receipts account is properly reconciled and reviewed in the future.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Concurrently with the filing of this Amended Report, we filed an amendment to our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended July 1, 2007 to correct misstatements in our original filings for fiscal years 2002 through 2007. In that Form 10-K/A, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) were not effective. Because a material weakness in our control environment existed during the first quarter of fiscal 2008 and was not discovered until after September 30, 2007, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2007.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

During the first quarter of fiscal 2008, we implemented a new financial policy and procedure for the treatment of complex transactions, which constitutes a material change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act). The new policy and procedure requires the retention or advice of appropriate outside independent legal, tax and/or accounting advisors to ensure proper review and conclusion by management, including the required accounting treatment of such transactions under GAAP. This was done to address a material weakness identified by management in the first quarter of fiscal 2008 that led us to restate our third quarter fiscal 2007 results, and file a Form 10-Q/A with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 31, 2007 to amend our Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2007.

Other than this change, no other material changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting occurred during the first quarter of fiscal 2008.
