Exhibit 99.1
Focus Reaffirms Second Quarter Revenue Guidance and Revises 2007 Annual Revenue Guidance
Campbell, Calif. — June 12, 2007 — Focus Enhancements, Inc. (NASDAQ: FCSE), a worldwide leader in Ultra Wideband (UWB) wireless technology, video conversion and digital media, today reaffirmed its second quarter revenue guidance in the range of $8.5 million to $9.5 million. The company also adjusted its 2007 annual revenue guidance to reflect a shift in its UWB digital chip production schedule.
“Our TV-out chips and the Systems Business are performing within our expectations, and as a result we are reaffirming our second quarter revenue guidance,” stated Brett Moyer, president and CEO of Focus Enhancements. “Also, based on initial observations of our next generation UWB chip samples received late last week, we believe substantial improvements have been made in the performance of the technology. However, to ensure the desired level of quality, we have decided to tape-out the chip one more time prior to production. Consequently, this will shift production starts and customer shipments. We now anticipate revenue from UWB to begin late in the fourth quarter, instead of the third quarter as previously expected.”
Moyer continued, “UWB customer design activity and interest in our high performance technology remain strong. We do not expect this delay to impact our customer relations for deploying UWB commercially in 2008.”
The company anticipates total 2007 revenue in the range of $38 million to $40 million with initial UWB production revenue late in the fourth quarter. This represents a reduction from prior 2007 revenue guidance of $42 million to $44 million, with a revenue contribution of $3 million to $4 million from UWB. The company expects the expenses related to the additional tape-out to be approximately $100,000.
