The shares of Class A Common Stock offered hereby involve a high degree of risk and investors should carefully consider information set forth in "Risk Factors." Unless otherwise indicated, all information in this Prospectus (i) gives effect to a three-for-five reverse stock split consummated in connection with the Company's reincorporation in Delaware in May 1997, and (ii) assumes that the Underwriters' over-allotment option as described in "Underwriting" is not exercised. See "Glossary" for the definition of certain terms used herein. THE COMPANY Jaymark provides advanced technology products and services to the Department of Defense (the "DoD") and other government agencies, and commercializes selected government-funded technologies following a disciplined evaluation of market size and profitability. The Company's first products developed under this commercialization strategy are high-speed digital communication adapters, which have been sold in production quantities since December 1996. These products, marketed under the FibreStar brand, are designed to the ANSI Fibre Channel standard. The Fibre Channel standard has become well supported in the industry because of its high performance, which includes (i) the highest commercially available speed (2125 megabits per second ("Mbps") in full duplex), (ii) scalability (up to 126 nodes on a single loop), (iii) simplicity of installation and maintenance, (iv) multiprotocol transport (simultaneously within both storage and network environments), (v) long connection distance (up to six miles), and (vi) high reliability of data reception and absence of congestion with multiple users. FibreStar products provide essential hardware and software to reduce network congestion, thereby delivering substantial performance improvement to users requiring high-bandwidth data transmission capabilities, including multimedia, in such applications as (i) business and scientific computing, (ii) high volume database access for the financial and retail industries, and (iii) multistream digital video transmission and editing for the entertainment and broadcast industries. With over twenty years of government-funded advanced technology development, the Company has established several core competencies, including (i) electronic and electro-optic system design, (ii) communications engineering, (iii) electromagnetic effects, and (iv) nuclear and high-explosive weapon effects (e.g., blast and shock effects on structures). In 1991, under the leadership of new management, the Company began to target government contracts involving the development of proprietary technologies with potential commercial applications ("dual-use technologies"). The Company's objective is to increase profitability by leveraging its core competencies and its advanced government-funded research through commercialization of dual-use technologies. The key elements of the Company's strategy are to: - Establish FibreStar as a leading line of adapters in the emerging market for networking and storage products utilizing the Fibre Channel standard. - Selectively identify and commercialize additional dual-use technologies and products with compelling market potential, and establish separate business entities, when appropriate, to provide dedicated management and focused business objectives. - Maintain and expand core competencies to provide new proprietary technologies, products and resources through the pursuit of government-funded research and strategic acquisitions. The Company has recently formed a wholly owned subsidiary, Jaycor Networks, Inc. ("JNI" or "Jaycor Networks"), to which it contributed its FibreStar products and technology in order to capitalize on the commercial potential of these products. The efficient and rapid transfer of information throughout networks has become increasingly critical to the daily operation of business. The annual market for Fibre Channel adapters, such as the FibreStar products, is projected to grow from $68 million in 1996 to over $200 million in 1997 and to exceed $1 billion by the year 2000, according to an industry study by emf Associates and Andrew Prophet Research & Consulting, two networking consulting groups. The Company believes that only a small portion of this market is currently associated with independent suppliers of Fibre Channel adapters. In the future, however, the Company believes that independent suppliers, such as JNI, will supply a larger portion of the market. As an example of how widely the Fibre Channel standard has been adopted, JNI and 35 other companies exhibited a variety of their Fibre Channel product lines at the Comdex computer trade show meeting in November 1996, including Adaptec, Ancor Communications, Box Hill Systems, Digital Equipment Corporation, Emulex, Gadzoox Microsystems, Hewlett-Packard, Intel, Interphase, LSI Logic, QLogic, Quantum, Seagate Technology, Sun Microsystems, Texas Instruments, Unisys, Vitesse Semiconductor, and XPoint Technology. From December 1996 to April 1997, JNI shipped over $750,000 of FibreStar products. The Company's government contract business is performed through Jaycor, Inc. ("Jaycor"), its wholly owned subsidiary. Jaycor's objective is to maintain and expand its advanced technology government research base, which will 4 6 provide both the technology and resources for further product commercialization. In addition to FibreStar, Jaycor has developed other dual-use technologies that have the potential for successful commercial applications, including: (i) a bomb-resistant luggage container designed for aircraft safety, (ii) an Auto-Arrestor to prevent or terminate dangerous high-speed chases, (iii) several non-lethal weapon applications for military and domestic security purposes, and (iv) several weapon detection systems. Jaycor intends to focus on areas in which government funding is likely to remain stable or increase, while simultaneously identifying problems and providing solutions to the government in areas in which its core competencies provide a competitive advantage. Jaycor maintains active relationships with the Departments of Defense, State, Justice, Transportation, and Energy, and had approximately 200 contracts or subcontracts that generated revenue during the fiscal year ended January 31, 1997, which were funded by approximately 40 different government agencies, most of which are within the DoD. An investment in the Class A Common Stock is subject to a number of risks associated with the Company and its business, including, among others, (i) risks associated with entering commercial markets, (ii) the Company's dependence upon government contracts and, in particular, contracts funded by the DoD, (iii) JNI's limited operating history, (iv) JNI's dependence upon the Fibre Channel standard, (v) anticipated fluctuations in operating results, and (vi) risks associated with government contracts, including, among others, possible early termination by the government and risks related to government audits of contracts costs. See "Risk Factors." Unless the context otherwise requires, the "Company" or "Jaymark" refers to Jaymark, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. The Company's principal executive offices are located at 9775 Towne Centre Drive, San Diego, California 92121, and its telephone number at that location is (619) 535-3100. The Company reincorporated in Delaware in May 1997.

Actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements as a result of certain risks and uncertainties set forth below and elsewhere in this Prospectus. An investment in the shares of Class A Common Stock offered hereby involves a high degree of risk. Prospective investors should carefully consider the following risk factors, in addition to the other information set forth in this Prospectus, in connection with an investment in the shares of Class A Common Stock offered hereby. RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH ENTERING COMMERCIAL MARKETS Historically, the Company's business has been focused on providing advanced technology products and services to the DoD and other government agencies. The Company believes that its future growth and increased profitability are largely dependent upon its success in commercial markets, especially in the computer networking market, in which it has only recently begun to compete. The Company believes that while the technologies used in its defense and commercial sectors have similarities, the business aspects of operating in such sectors differ significantly. As a result, the Company is subject to risks inherent in the operation of a new business enterprise, including risks associated with attracting and servicing a new customer base, developing and manufacturing products in a cost-effective and profitable manner, managing the expansion of a business operation, and attracting and retaining qualified engineering, marketing and managerial personnel with industry experience. Any of such risks could adversely affect the Company's business, operating results and financial condition. See "-- Risks Associated with JNI." DEPENDENCE ON GOVERNMENT MARKET To date, nearly all of the Company's revenues have been derived from contracts or subcontracts funded by agencies of the U.S. government, in particular the DoD. Contracts or subcontracts funded by the DoD accounted for approximately 91%, 89%, 88% and 75% of the Company's revenues during the years ended January 31, 1995, 1996, and 1997 and the three months ended April 30, 1997, respectively. The Company expects, at least in the near term, to continue to derive the majority of its revenues from its government contracts business. As a result, the Company's revenues could be adversely impacted by a decrease in defense spending by the U.S. government. Any failure by the Company to replace revenues attributable to a significant defense program or contract at the end of such program or contract, whether due to cancellation, spending cuts, budgetary constraints or otherwise, could have an adverse effect upon the Company's business, operating results and financial condition in future periods. See "-- Risks Associated with Government Contracts." RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH JNI - Limited Operating History. Shipment of FibreStar adapters in limited commercial quantities began in December 1996. Due in part to its lack of operating history, JNI is unable to predict the level of demand for its FibreStar adapters, or whether or not such products will be able to achieve broad acceptance in the computer networking market. The likelihood of success of JNI must be considered in light of the problems, expenses, complications and delays frequently encountered by early-stage companies and the competitive environment in which JNI intends to operate. Such problems could have an adverse effect on JNI's business, operating results and financial condition and, accordingly, on the Company's business and future prospects. - Dependence on Fibre Channel Standard. JNI's future financial performance and, to a large extent, the Company's future prospects will depend on the growth in the market for products designed to the Fibre Channel standard. Because the market for Fibre Channel products is new and evolving, it is difficult to assess or predict with any assurance its size or growth rate. The development or emergence of standards which compete with or are superior to Fibre Channel, whether on the basis of cost, speed, flexibility or otherwise, could have an adverse effect on JNI's and, accordingly, the Company's business, operating results and financial condition. If the market for Fibre Channel products fails to develop as rapidly as expected or if JNI's products fail to achieve market acceptance, JNI's business, operating results and financial condition and, accordingly, the Company's business and future prospects would be adversely affected. 7 9 - Management of Growth. Growth and expansion will place a strain on JNI's management, administrative, operational and financial resources and will impose increased demands on its systems, controls and personnel. In particular, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to retain or recruit in a timely manner qualified engineering and managerial personnel. There can be no assurance that JNI will be able to effectively manage any future growth, and any failure to do so would have an adverse effect on JNI's business, operating results and financial condition and, accordingly, on the Company's business and future prospects. See "Business -- Company Strategy" and "Management." - Competition. The computer networking industry is intensely competitive, subject to rapid change, and significantly affected by new product introductions and other market activities of industry participants. JNI competes with companies offering products based on the Fibre Channel standard, as well as companies offering products based on competing standards. Many of JNI's current and potential competitors have significantly greater financial, technical, marketing and other resources, and possess a larger installed base of customers than JNI. The computer networking industry has witnessed many acquisitions pursuant to which several large companies have emerged with comprehensive networking solutions. These acquisitions may permit JNI's competitors to devote significantly greater resources to the development and marketing of new competitive products and the marketing of existing products to their larger installed bases of customers. The Company expects that competition will increase, in particular as companies that are well established in the computer networking industry increase their focus on the emerging market for Fibre Channel adapters. There can be no assurance that JNI will be able to compete successfully in the future with existing or new competitors or that competitive pressures faced by JNI will not adversely affect its business, operating results and financial condition and, accordingly, the Company's business and future prospects. See "Business -- Fibre Channel Network Products -- Competition." - Limited Source Components. Certain key components used in JNI's products, such as application-specific integrated circuits ("ASICs") and controller chips, are currently available only from a single source or a limited number of sources. In particular, JNI has designed into its products a Fibre Channel controller chip available only from Hewlett-Packard and a PCI interface chip available only from Applied Micro Circuits Corporation. Similar chips are available from other vendors, but incorporation of such chips into JNI's products would require alterations to hardware design and driver software to accommodate the characteristics of the new chips and, accordingly, would substantially delay product shipments. In addition, JNI incorporates integrated circuits from Texas Instruments and Advanced Micro Devices and oscillators from NEL Frequency Controls, Inc. into its products. Although the functions of these components can be duplicated using other components available on the market, the unavailability of any of these components could substantially delay product shipments. JNI has not entered into purchase agreements with the suppliers of these components, which subjects JNI to potential shortages of components and reduced control over delivery schedules and costs. Any such shortage, delivery problem or cost increase could cause JNI to seek other suppliers, and the process of identifying and qualifying such other suppliers could be lengthy. Future difficulty in obtaining any of these key components could result in delays or reductions in product shipments which, in turn, could have an adverse effect on JNI's business, operating results and financial condition and, accordingly, on the Company's business and future prospects. - Contract Manufacturing. JNI's use of third-party manufacturers to assemble and test its products involves certain risks, including the lack of adequate capacity, the unavailability of access to certain process technologies, and reduced control over delivery schedules, manufacturing yields, quality and costs. In the event that any significant contractor were to become unable or unwilling to continue to manufacture or test JNI's products in required volumes, JNI would have to identify and qualify acceptable replacements. This process of qualifying manufacturing contractors and other suppliers could be lengthy, and no assurance can be given that any additional sources would become available to JNI on a timely basis, if at all. Any delay or reduction in component shipments or delay or increase in costs of the assembly and testing of products by contractors could adversely affect JNI's business, operating results and financial condition and, accordingly, the Company's business and future prospects. 8 10 - Dependence on OEMs and Resellers. JNI has developed and is dependent on sales and marketing channels consisting primarily of resellers and original equipment manufacturers ("OEMs"). Any failure of such OEMs and resellers to adequately market, promote and sell JNI's products, whether due to competition, insolvency, lack of attention to or understanding of JNI's products, or otherwise, would have an adverse effect on JNI's business, operating results and financial condition and, accordingly, on the Company's business and future prospects. See "Business -- Fibre Channel Network Products -- Sales and Marketing." - Rapid Technological Change. The computer networking industry is characterized by rapidly changing technologies and frequent new product introductions. The rapid development of new technologies increases the risk that current or new competitors could develop products that would reduce the competitiveness of JNI's products. JNI's success will depend to a substantial degree upon its ability to respond to changes in technology and customer requirements. This will require the timely selection, development and marketing of new products and enhancements on a cost-effective basis. There can be no assurance that JNI will be successful in developing, introducing or managing the transition to new or enhanced products, or that any such products will be responsive to technological changes or will gain market acceptance. If JNI were to be unsuccessful or to incur significant delays in developing and introducing such new products or enhancements, JNI's business, operating results and financial condition and, accordingly, the Company's business and future prospects could be adversely affected. See "Business -- Fibre Channel Network Products -- Research and Development." RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH GOVERNMENT CONTRACTS - Early Termination. Jaycor's contracts with the U.S. government and its subcontracts with government prime contractors are subject to modification or termination at the convenience of the government. Moreover, while many of Jaycor's government contracts and subcontracts extend over several years, such contracts are typically funded for no more than one year at a time. There can be no assurance any such modifications or terminations will not have an adverse effect on the Company's business, operating results and financial condition in the future. - Competition. The advanced technology products and services market is competitive and is characterized by rapid technological change, developments and advancements, as well as the evolving budgetary priorities of the U.S. government. Jaycor's competitors are diverse and generally differ among each of its core competencies. Many of Jaycor's competitors have substantially greater technical, financial, marketing and other resources than the Company, as well as superior name recognition. The Company believes that the critical success factors in the advanced technology government solutions market include developing proprietary technology, demonstrating technological superiority, maintaining customer satisfaction, adapting to evolving governmental budgetary priorities, identifying future government problems, providing cost-effective solutions for such problems, and recruiting and retaining highly skilled personnel. No assurance can be given that these competitors will not develop new technologies or introduce new solutions that will offer superior pricing or performance features or that new solutions or technologies will not impair the competitiveness of Jaycor's solutions. See "Business -- Advanced Technology Products and Services -- Competition." - Contract Costs Subject to Government Audits; Government Compliance. All contract costs, including indirect costs, for services under contracts or subcontracts funded by agencies of the U.S. government are subject to audit, and the acceptance of such costs as allowable and allocable is subject to federal regulatory guidelines. Contract revenues have been recorded in amounts which the Company expects to be realized upon final audit settlement. There can be no assurance, however, that audits and adjustments will not result in decreased revenues and net income for those years, and any disallowance of costs by the government could have an adverse effect on the Company's business, operating results and financial condition. Because of its participation in government contracts, Jaycor is subject to audit from time to time for its compliance with government regulations by various agencies, including the Defense Contract Audit Agency, the Defense Investigative Service and the Office of Federal Control Compliance Programs. These and other governmental agencies may also, from time to time, conduct inquiries or investigations that may cover a broad range of Company activity. Responding to any such 9 11 audits, inquiries or investigations may involve significant expense and divert management attention. In addition, an adverse finding in any such audit, inquiry or investigation could involve penalties that may have an adverse effect on the Company's business, operating results and financial condition. - At-Risk Contract Costs. Certain revenues associated with services performed prior to execution of a government contract or a modification of such a contract have been recorded in the Company's financial statements based upon the expectation that the costs of these services will be fully recovered. These costs are incurred at the Company's risk, and it is possible that such costs will not be reimbursed by the U.S. government. As a result, there can be no assurance that the underlying contracts or contract modifications will be executed or that such costs will be recovered. Any failure to recover such costs could have an adverse effect on the Company's business, operating results and financial condition. - Fixed-Price Contract Exposure. During the fiscal years ended January 31, 1995, 1996, and 1997 and the three months ended April 30, 1997, 17%, 11%, 14% and 13%, respectively, of the Company's revenues were derived from fixed-price contracts. Because Jaycor assumes the risk of performing such contracts at the stipulated price, any failure to accurately estimate ultimate costs or to control costs during contract performance could result in losses or reduced profits for particular fixed-price contracts, which, in turn, could have an adverse effect on the Company's business, operating results and financial condition. See "Business -- Advanced Technology Products and Services -- Procurement of Government Contracts." - Lengthy Sales Cycles. The decision-making process for government agencies, which constitute the majority of Jaycor's customers, is often complex and time-consuming. The period between initial discussions concerning a particular project and the customer's purchase commitment typically ranges from six to twelve months. In addition, follow-ons to existing contracts are often subject to lengthy delays. These delays could have an adverse effect on the Company's business, operating results and financial condition and, in particular, could contribute to significant fluctuations in its operating results on a quarterly basis. See "Business -- Advanced Technology Products and Services -- Procurement of Governmental Contracts." - Dependence on Government Contract Coverage. To maintain competitive overhead rates and historical levels of profitability, Jaycor typically establishes budgets wherein 75% to 85% of the cost of its non- administrative employees is anticipated to be directly billed to customers through existing contracts, with the remaining amount allocated to overhead. Given the lengthy government contract approval process and associated uncertainty of the timing of contract modifications or awards, Jaycor may be unable to meet such utilization goals. The long-term needs of Jaycor may make it impractical to effect short-term work force reductions when such under-utilization occurs. Accordingly, no assurance can be given that Jaycor will meet its desired level of utilization, and if any resulting increased overhead costs cannot be recovered within Jaycor's overhead rates, the Company's business, operating results and financial condition could be adversely affected. RISK RELATED TO GROWTH THROUGH ACQUISITIONS One of the Company's strategies is to increase its revenues and expand the markets it serves through acquisitions. There can be no assurance, however, that the Company will be able to identify, acquire or profitably manage suitable acquisition candidates or successfully integrate such businesses, if acquired, into its operations without substantial costs, delays or other problems. In addition, there can be no assurance that any acquired businesses will be profitable at the time of their acquisition or will achieve or maintain profitability levels that justify the investment therein or that the Company will be able to realize expected operating and economic efficiencies following such acquisitions. Acquisitions may involve a number of special risks, including adverse effects on the Company's reported operating results, diversion of management's attention, increased burdens on the Company's management resources and financial controls, dependence on the retention and hiring of key personnel, risks associated with unanticipated problems or legal liabilities, and amortization of acquired intangible assets. Any such risks could have an adverse effect on the Company's business, operating results and financial condition. See "Business -- Company Strategy." 10 12 DEPENDENCE ON CERTAIN CUSTOMERS For the year ended January 31, 1997 and the three months ended April 30, 1997, approximately 32% and 28%, respectively of the Company's revenues were derived from approximately 40 contracts or subcontracts funded by the Defense Special Weapons Agency ("DSWA"), an agency of the DoD, and approximately 14% and 16%, respectively of the Company's revenues were derived from contracts with the Air Force Sacramento Air Logistics Command ("SM-ALC"). While no individual contract with DSWA is material to the Company's business, the Company would be materially affected if all or a substantial portion of the funding from DSWA or SM-ALC were lost. There have been events in the past which have called into question the continuation of government funding of DSWA. In November 1993, Congress directed the Rand Corporation to evaluate alternative ways of accomplishing the functions which were being performed by DSWA, which was then called the Defense Nuclear Agency. Based in part on the recommendations in the Rand Corporation's report, Congress elected to continue funding the agency at a lower level. There can be no assurance that DSWA will continue to provide funding to the Company at current levels, if at all, and a material decrease in such funding could have an adverse effect on the Company's business, operating results and financial condition. See "-- Risks Associated with Government Contracts" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations." FLUCTUATIONS IN QUARTERLY OPERATING RESULTS The Company has experienced, and expects to continue to experience, significant fluctuations in its quarterly operating results. The Company's future operating results are dependent upon a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the demand for its products and services, the number of government contracts it successfully obtains, the size and timing of specific contracts, the level of price competition that it encounters in the government contract bidding process, the length of its sales cycles, the timing and development of new solution proposals by the Company and its competitors, acquisitions by the Company and its competitors, the timing of new hires, the Company's ability to develop and market new solutions, technological changes and economic conditions, both generally and in specific industry segments. In particular, JNI does not expect to have a material backlog of unfilled orders, so any shortfall in demand for FibreStar products in relation to the Company's expectations, or any material delay in customer orders, could have an almost immediate impact on the Company's business, operating results and financial condition. The Company believes that quarterly comparisons of its operating results are not necessarily meaningful and should not be relied upon as indications of future performance. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations." DEPENDENCE ON KEY EMPLOYEES The Company's success will depend in part on the continued services of its key employees, including, among others, Eric P. Wenaas, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, and Terry M. Flanagan, President and Chief Executive Officer of JNI. The Company does not have employment agreements with any of its key employees and does not maintain any key person life insurance, with the exception of a $1.0 million policy on Dr. Wenaas. The loss of one or more of the Company's key employees could have an adverse effect on the Company's business, operating results and financial condition. In particular, if any one or more of such key employees were to join a competitor or form a competing company, any resulting loss of existing or potential business to any such competitor would magnify the adverse effect caused by the loss of such key employee or employees. In the event of the loss of any such employee or employees, there can be no assurance that the Company would be able to prevent the unauthorized disclosure or use of the Company's or its customers' technical knowledge, practices or procedures by such employee or employees, or that such disclosure or use would not have an adverse effect on the Company's business, operating results and financial condition. See "Management." PROPRIETARY RIGHTS; RISKS OF INFRINGEMENT The Company's success and ability to compete is dependent in part upon its proprietary technology. The Company relies on a combination of patent, copyright and trademark laws, trade secrets, confidentiality procedures and certain contractual provisions to establish and protect its proprietary rights. Despite the Company's efforts to protect its proprietary rights, unauthorized parties may attempt to copy, design around or reverse engineer aspects of the Company's products or to obtain and use information that the Company 11 13 regards as proprietary. Under certain standard provisions in government contracts, the government may retain certain rights, which are often limited, in technology developed under or arising out of work performed under such contracts. In addition, the laws of certain foreign countries do not protect the Company's proprietary rights to the same extent as the laws of the United States. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that unauthorized use of the Company's technology will not occur. In the future, litigation may be necessary to protect trade secrets and other intellectual property rights owned by the Company, to defend the Company against claimed infringement of the rights of others, and to determine the scope and validity of the proprietary rights of others. Any such litigation could be costly and result in a diversion of management's attention and adverse determinations in any such litigation could result in the loss of the Company's proprietary rights, subject the Company to significant liabilities, require the Company to seek licenses from third parties or prevent the Company from manufacturing or selling its products, any of which could have an adverse effect on the Company's business, operating results and financial condition. ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATIONS AND RISKS The Company is subject to a variety of local, state and federal governmental regulations relating to the storage, discharge, handling, emission, generation, manufacture and disposal of toxic or other hazardous substances. In the conduct of the Company's business, certain solvents, cleaning agents, paints, oils and chemicals, as well as certain other hazardous substances, are handled on a regular basis. The failure to comply with current or future regulations could result in the imposition of substantial fines on the Company, suspension of production, alteration of its processes or cessation of operations, which, in turn, could have an adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and operating results. BROAD DISCRETION IN ALLOCATION OF NET PROCEEDS The Company intends to use the net proceeds of this offering primarily for general corporate purposes, including product development and working capital. The Company may use a portion of the net proceeds of the offering to acquire or invest in businesses, technologies or products complementary to the Company's business. As of April 30, 1997, the outstanding balance under the Company's bank line of credit was approximately $4.8 million. Other than the repayment of such outstanding balance and the anticipated use of $1.0 million to repurchase shares of Common Stock held by a former executive of the Company, the Company has no other specific plans to use the net proceeds of this offering. Accordingly, management will retain broad discretion to allocate the net proceeds of this offering. See "Use of Proceeds" and "Certain Transactions." NO PRIOR PUBLIC MARKET; POSSIBLE STOCK PRICE VOLATILITY Prior to this offering, there has been no public market for the Company's Class A Common Stock, and there can be no assurance that an active trading market will develop or be sustained after this offering. The initial public offering price will be determined through negotiations among the Company and the Representative and may not be indicative of the market price of the Class A Common Stock after this offering. The trading price of the Class A Common Stock is likely to be volatile and may be significantly affected by factors such as actual or anticipated fluctuations in the Company's operating results; announcements of technological innovations, new products or new contracts by the Company or its competitors; developments with respect to patents, copyrights or proprietary rights; conditions and trends in the Company's markets; changes in financial estimates by securities analysts; general market conditions; and other factors. In addition, the public equity markets have from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that have particularly affected the market prices for the stocks of technology companies. These broad market fluctuations, as well as shortfalls in sales or earnings as compared with public market analysts' expectations, changes in such analysts' recommendations or projections and general economic and market conditions, may adversely affect the market price of the Company's Class A Common Stock. See "Underwriting." DILUTION Purchasers of the Class A Common Stock offered hereby will incur immediate substantial dilution in pro forma net tangible book value per share from the initial offering price in the amount of $6.81. To the extent outstanding options to purchase the Company's Common Stock are exercised, there will be further dilution to such new investors. See "Dilution." 12 14 CONTROL BY EXISTING STOCKHOLDERS; ANTI-TAKEOVER EFFECTS Immediately following this offering, the Company's executive officers and directors will beneficially own approximately 34% of the outstanding shares of the Company's Common Stock (including shares held by the ESOP), assuming no exercise of the Underwriters' over-allotment option. As a result, such persons will have the ability to exercise significant influence over matters regarding the Company. Such influence may have a significant effect in delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of the Company. In addition, the Company is subject to the anti-takeover provisions of Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, which will prohibit the Company from engaging in a "business combination" with an "interested stockholder" for a period of three years after the date of the transaction in which the person became an interested stockholder, unless the business combination is approved in a prescribed manner. The application of Section 203 also could have the effect of delaying or preventing a change of control of the Company. In addition, certain provisions of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws, as well as other provisions of Delaware law, could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of the Company. See "Principal Stockholders" and "Description of Capital Stock." SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE Sales of substantial amounts of Class A Common Stock in the public market after this offering, or the possibility of such sales occurring, could adversely affect prevailing market prices of the Class A Common Stock or the future ability of the Company to raise capital through an offering of equity securities. After this offering, the Company will have outstanding 1,648,306 shares of Class A Common Stock and 1,393,334 shares of Class B Common Stock, after giving effect to the Company's repurchase, subject to certain conditions, of 120,000 shares of Common Stock. Of such shares, the 1,300,000 shares of Class A Common Stock offered hereby will be freely tradeable in the public market without restriction under the Securities Act, unless such shares are held by "affiliates" of the Company, as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act. The remaining 348,306 shares of Class A Common Stock and the 1,393,334 shares of Class B Common Stock outstanding upon completion of this offering will be "restricted securities," as defined in Rule 144. All outstanding shares of the Company's Class B Common Stock will convert into shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock over a four-year period commencing upon the closing of this offering at the rate of 348,306 shares on the closing of this offering and on each of the first three anniversaries of such closing, and 348,416 shares on the fourth anniversary of such closing. Subject to the lock-up agreements discussed below, substantially all of the shares of Class A Common Stock issued upon conversion of the Class B Common Stock will generally be freely tradeable, subject in certain instances to the volume limitations imposed by Rule 144. Pursuant to certain "lock-up" agreements, all of the executive officers and directors of the Company, as well as certain officers of the Company's subsidiaries and certain spouses of the executive officers of the Company, who, following the closing of this offering, will collectively hold an aggregate of 61,332 shares of Class A Common Stock and 245,333 shares of Class B Common Stock, have agreed, subject to certain limited exceptions, not to offer, sell, contract to sell, grant any option to purchase or otherwise dispose of any such shares for a period of one year from the date of this Prospectus. Certain additional stockholders of the Company, including the ESOP, who, following the closing of this offering, will collectively hold an aggregate of 237,338 shares of Class A Common Stock and 949,440 shares of Class B Common Stock, have entered into similar lock-up agreements covering a period of 180 days following the date of this Prospectus. Such agreements provide that Brean Murray & Co., Inc. may, in its sole discretion and at any time without notice, release all or a portion of the shares subject to these lock-up agreements. As of April 30, 1997, options to purchase 1,215,225 shares of Class B Common Stock were outstanding under the Company's stock option plans, 1,050,450 of which were exercisable as of such date and approximately 1,059,900 of which are subject to lock-up agreements. The shares of Class B Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such options convert into shares of Class A Common Stock over a four-year period commencing on the closing of this offering. The Company intends to file after the effective date of this offering Registration Statements on Form S-8 to register an aggregate of 2,443,765 shares of Class A Common Stock reserved for issuance under its stock option and stock purchase plans or upon conversion of shares of Class B Common Stock issued under such plans. See "Shares Eligible for Future Sale" and "Underwriting." 13 15 USE OF PROCEEDS The net proceeds to the Company from the sale of the 1,300,000 shares of Class A Common Stock offered hereby by the Company are estimated to be approximately $14,523,000 ($16,855,000 if the Underwriters' over-allotment option is exercised in full), assuming an initial public offering price of $13.00 per share (which is the mid-point of the filing range) and after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses. The Company intends to use the net proceeds of this offering primarily for general corporate purposes, including product development and working capital. The Company also intends to use a portion of the net proceeds of this offering to repay indebtedness outstanding under the Company's bank line of credit, which, as of April 30, 1997, was approximately $4,764,000 and accrued interest at a rate of 9.125%. The indebtedness outstanding under the bank line of credit is due and payable in full on October 1, 1997. In addition, the Company has agreed to repurchase 120,000 shares of Class B Common Stock from Robert P. Sullivan, a retired Executive Vice President of the Company, for $1,000,000 ($8.33 per share). Although the Company is obligated to repurchase such shares within 30 days of the closing of this offering, such obligation is postponed in the event that such repurchase would impair the Company's ability to qualify for listing on the Nasdaq National Market. The Company may also use a portion of the net proceeds to acquire or invest in businesses, technologies or products complementary to the Company's business. While from time to time the Company evaluates potential acquisitions of such businesses, technologies or products, there are no present understandings, commitments or agreements with respect to any such transaction. Pending such uses, the Company intends to invest the net proceeds from the offering in investment-grade, interest-bearing securities. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations -- Liquidity and Capital Resources" and "Certain Transactions." DIVIDEND POLICY The Company has never paid or declared any cash dividends. The Company intends to retain future earnings, if any, to finance the development and expansion of its business and, therefore, does not anticipate paying any cash dividends on its Common Stock in the foreseeable future. In addition, the Company's bank line of credit contains certain restrictions with respect to the payment of dividends. 14 16 CAPITALIZATION The following table sets forth, as of April 30, 1997, the capitalization of the Company on an actual basis and as adjusted to give effect to (i) the sale and issuance of the 1,300,000 shares of Class A Common Stock offered by the Company hereby (after deducting the estimated underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses) at an assumed public offering price of $13.00 and the application of the net proceeds therefrom as described in "Use of Proceeds," and (ii) the reclassification of the shares of Common Stock held under the Company's ESOP to stockholders' equity. This table should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included elsewhere in this Prospectus.

Following the closing of this offering, this potential obligation may, at the Company's option, be satisfied by the distribution from the ESOP of shares of Class A Common Stock which are readily tradeable, and therefore such amount will be reclassified to stockholders' equity. See "Management -- Benefit Plans" and Notes 6 and 9 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. (2) Excludes (i) 120,000 shares of Common Stock which the Company has agreed to repurchase, subject to certain conditions, (ii) 1,215,225 shares of Class B Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of stock options outstanding as of April 30, 1997 at a weighted average exercise price of $4.92 per share, (iii) 575,000 shares of Class A Common Stock and 453,540 shares of Class B Common Stock reserved for issuance under the Company's stock option plans, (iv) 200,000 shares of Class A Common Stock reserved for issuance under the Company's 1997 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, (v) 130,000 shares of Class A Common Stock reserved for issuance upon exercise of the Representative's Warrants, (vi) 10,928 shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance pursuant to the terms of an acquisition which was completed in October 1995, and (vii) 8,596 shares of Common Stock potentially issuable pursuant to the terms of an Employment Agreement. Actual shares of Common Stock also excludes 487,241 shares of Common Stock held by the ESOP. See "Management -- Benefit Plans," "Certain Transactions," "Underwriting" and Notes 6 and 9 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. 15 17 DILUTION The pro forma net tangible book value of the Company as of April 30, 1997 was $4,316,000 or $2.48 per share of Common Stock. Pro forma net tangible book value per share represents the amount of net tangible assets, less total liabilities, divided by the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding assuming reclassification of all mandatorily redeemable ESOP shares to stockholders' equity and the repurchase of 120,000 shares. After giving effect to (i) the sale by the Company of 1,300,000 shares of Class A Common Stock offered hereby at an assumed initial public offering price of $13.00 per share, and (ii) repayment in full of the Company's bank line of credit with an outstanding balance of $4,764,000 at April 30, 1997, the pro forma net tangible book value of the Company as of April 30, 1997 would have been $18,839,000, or $6.19 per share. This represents an immediate increase in such net tangible book value of $3.71 per share to existing stockholders and an immediate dilution of $6.81 per share to new investors. The following table illustrates this per share dilution: Assumed initial public offering price per share............. $13.00 Pro forma net tangible book value per share at April 30, 1997................................................... $2.48 Increase in pro forma net tangible book value per share attributable to new investors.......................... 3.71 ----- Pro forma net tangible book value per share after this offering.................................................. 6.19 ------ Dilution per share to new investors......................... $ 6.81 ====== The following table summarizes, as of April 30, 1997, the differences in the number of shares of Common Stock purchased from the Company, the total consideration paid to the Company and the average price paid per share by existing and new investors: SHARES PURCHASED TOTAL CONSIDERATION AVERAGE -------------------- ---------------------- PRICE PER NUMBER PERCENT AMOUNT PERCENT SHARE --------- ------- ----------- ------- --------- Existing stockholders(1)... 1,741,640 57% $ 979,000 5% $ 0.56 New investors.............. 1,300,000 43 16,900,000 95 $ 13.00 --------- ---- ----------- ---- Total............ 3,041,640 100% $17,879,000 100% ========= ==== =========== ==== - --------------- (1) All existing stockholders of the Company hold shares of Class B Common Stock, which shares will convert into shares of Class A Common Stock over a four-year period commencing upon the closing of this offering. Includes 487,241 mandatorily redeemable shares held by the ESOP and 36,000 shares issued in return for a $150,000 recourse note receivable. Excludes 120,000 shares which the Company will repurchase, subject to certain conditions, within 30 days of the closing of this offering. See "Description of Capital Stock." The foregoing assumes no exercise of options after April 30, 1997. As of April 30, 1997, there were outstanding options to purchase 1,215,225 shares of Class B Common Stock at a weighted average exercise price of $4.92 per share. To the extent outstanding options are exercised, there will be further dilution to new investors. See "Capitalization," "Management -- Benefit Plans," "Compensation of Directors" and Note 6 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. 16 18 SELECTED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL DATA The selected consolidated financial data set forth below with respect to the Company's consolidated statement of income for each of the years in the three-year period ended January 31, 1997, and with respect to the consolidated balance sheet at January 31, 1997 and 1996, are derived from the consolidated financial statements audited by Price Waterhouse LLP, independent accountants, which are included elsewhere in this Prospectus and are qualified by reference to such consolidated financial statements. The consolidated statement of income data for the years ended January 31, 1994 and 1993 and the consolidated balance sheet data at January 31, 1995, 1994, and 1993 are derived from audited consolidated financial statements not included in this Prospectus. The consolidated statement of income data for the three months ended April 30, 1997 and 1996, and the consolidated balance sheet data at April 30, 1997 are derived from unaudited consolidated financial statements which are included elsewhere in this Prospectus. The unaudited consolidated financial statement data includes all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring accruals, which the Company considers necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial position and results of operations for such periods.

See "Management -- Benefit Plans" and Notes 6 and 9 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. 17 19 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations includes forward-looking statements with respect to the Company's future financial performance. These forward-looking statements are subject to various risks and uncertainties, including the factors described under "Risk Factors" and elsewhere in this Prospectus, that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical results or those currently anticipated. OVERVIEW Jaymark provides advanced technology products and services to the DoD and other government agencies, and commercializes selected government-funded technologies following a disciplined evaluation of market size and profitability. The Company's government contract business is performed through Jaycor, its wholly owned subsidiary. The Company has recently formed a wholly owned subsidiary, Jaycor Networks, to which it contributed its FibreStar products and technology in order to capitalize on the commercial potential of these products. The Company operates and reports its results of operations on the basis of 52 or 53 week periods ending on the Friday closest to January 31. The Company's fiscal quarters generally end on the Friday closest to the last day of the month of the fiscal quarter. For presentation purposes, the Company has indicated its fiscal year as ending on January 31 and its fiscal quarters as ending on April 30, July 31, and October 31. The Company has historically derived over 90% of its revenues from contracts or subcontracts funded by agencies of the U.S. government. Contract costs reimbursed under government contracts include allocated indirect costs which are subject to audit and adjustment by the U.S. government. Contract revenues have been recorded in amounts which are expected to be realized upon final audit. Government contracts generally are one of three types: (i) cost plus fixed fee ("CPFF"), (ii) time and materials ("T&M"), and (iii) fixed-price. CPFF contracts provide for reimbursement for all of Jaycor's allowable costs and a fixed profit. T&M contracts require Jaycor to provide a certain number of labor hours at a rate prescribed by the contract. Jaycor is reimbursed for the hours spent on T&M contracts at the prescribed labor rate for each category and all materials utilized. The fee in a T&M contract is generally slightly higher than for CPFF contracts. Fixed-price contracts require Jaycor to deliver the work product described in the work statement at a fixed price, which has the largest risk to Jaycor, but also generally has the largest potential profit margin. In the year ended January 31, 1997, approximately 78%, 8% and 14% and in the three months ended April 30, 1997, approximately 82%, 5% and 13% of Jaycor's government contract revenues were derived from CPFF, T&M, and fixed-price contracts, respectively. Government contract revenues are generally recognized as costs are incurred and include a portion of the total estimated earnings to be realized based upon the relationship between contract costs incurred to date and total estimated contract costs at completion. The Company maintains active relationships with the Departments of Defense, State, Justice, Transportation, and Energy, and had approximately 200 contracts or subcontracts that generated revenue during the fiscal year ended January 31, 1997, which were funded by approximately 40 different government agencies, most of which are within the DoD. Contracts or subcontracts funded by the DoD accounted for approximately 91%, 89%, 88% and 75% of the Company's revenues during the years ended January 31, 1995, 1996 and 1997 and the three months ended April 30, 1997, respectively. During the fiscal year ended January 31, 1997, approximately 32% of the Company's revenues were derived from approximately 40 contracts or subcontracts funded by DSWA, and approximately 14% of the Company's revenues were derived from contracts with SM-ALC. Since the Company's inception in 1975 until the early 1990s, a significant portion of the Company's revenues were associated with nuclear-related government programs. Since fiscal year 1991, however, the Company's base of nuclear-related revenues has decreased substantially. In the year ended January 31, 1997, approximately 8% of total revenues ($4.3 million) were derived from nuclear-related programs, as compared to over 43% ($24.6 million) in fiscal year 1993. Growth of revenues over the last four years related to certain 18 20 of the Company's competencies, including communications engineering, electronic warfare, and information systems, has substantially offset the nuclear-related revenue decrease. The Company's cost of revenues is comprised primarily of direct contract costs and overhead expenses. Since a majority of the cost of revenues is reimbursed by the Company's customers under cost-reimbursable contracts, the cost of revenues element remains relatively constant from year to year as a percentage of total revenues. Direct contract costs consist of labor and non-labor costs. Overhead expenses consist primarily of operating division administration, business development and proposal activities, and facility-related expenses. Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") costs generally consist of corporate management and administrative support costs. Research and development ("R&D") costs are those associated with the Company's R&D efforts which are not funded under specific contracts. A majority of the Company's R&D efforts are funded directly under contracts, resulting in relatively low company-expended R&D costs. The Company believes that the company-expended R&D costs will increase in the future as the Company increases its efforts to commercialize products. The Company's accounting policies with respect to JNI are consistent with industry standards applicable to manufacturers of computer networking products. In addition, the Company anticipates that various costs and expenses applicable to the generation of JNI's revenues will differ significantly from those reflected in the Company's historical results of operations, and JNI's results of operations will be more comparable to other computer networking companies at a similar stage of development. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following table sets forth, as a percentage of total revenues, certain consolidated income statement data for the periods indicated.

THREE MONTHS ENDED APRIL 30, 1997 VS. THREE MONTHS ENDED APRIL 30, 1996 Revenues. Revenues increased by $0.2 million, or 1.5%, from $13.2 million in the three months ended April 30, 1996 to $13.4 million in the three months ended April 30, 1997, due principally to increased revenues in the network products segment and advanced technology areas partially offset by a decline in contract revenues related to information systems and environmental remediation activity. Cost of revenues. Cost of revenues remained constant at $10.6 million; however, cost of revenues as a percentage of revenues improved from 80.5% in the three months ended April 30, 1996 to 78.8% in the three 19 21 months ended April 30, 1997. The reduction in cost of revenues as a percentage of revenues is due principally to reduced overhead costs, including reduced facility expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses. SG&A increased from $1.9 million, or 14.7% of revenues, in the three months ended April 30, 1996 to $2.1 million, or 15.6% of revenues, in the three months ended April 30, 1997, resulting from increased selling and administrative activity in the network products segment. Research and development expenses. R&D expenses increased from $0.1, or 0.6% of revenues, in the three months ended April 30, 1996 to $0.3, or 2.0% of revenues, in the three months ended April 30, 1997. The increase in R&D costs was attributable to increased R&D activity in the network products segment. Interest expense. Interest expense remained constant at $0.5 million in the three month periods ended April 30, 1996 and 1997. The Company's average borrowing levels and interest rates were generally consistent during the two periods. Provision for income taxes. The Company's effective tax rate was 50.3% for the three months ended April 30, 1996 and 39.5% for the three months ended April 30, 1997. The R&D tax credit expired June 30, 1995 and were not reinstated until July 1, 1996, resulting in a higher effective tax rate for the three months ended April 30, 1996. With the reinstatement of R&D credits in July 1996, the effective tax rate for the Company for the fiscal year ended January 31, 1997 was 40.9%. FISCAL YEAR ENDED JANUARY 31, 1997 VS. FISCAL YEAR ENDED JANUARY 31, 1996 Revenues. Revenues increased by $1.5 million, or 2.8%, from $52.9 million in the fiscal year ended January 31, 1996 to $54.4 million in the fiscal year ended January 31, 1997. Approximately $2.2 million in increased revenue was associated with scheduled hardware resales under communications engineering contracts and $1.6 million in revenues was contributed by two additional business lines which were added in the third quarter of the fiscal year ended January 31, 1996 and the first quarter of the fiscal year ended January 31, 1997, respectively. These increases were partially offset by a $2.0 million decline in revenues from decreased environmental remediation contract activity. Cost of revenues. Cost of revenues increased from $43.5 million, or 82.3% of revenues, in the fiscal year ended January 31, 1996 to $44.2 million, or 81.2% of revenues, in the fiscal year ended January 31, 1997. This increase in cost of revenues of $0.7 million is associated primarily with scheduled hardware resales under communications engineering contracts partially offset by a decrease in cost of sales under environmental remediation contracts. Selling, general and administrative expenses. SG&A increased from $6.3 million, or 11.8% of revenues, in the fiscal year ended January 31, 1996 to $7.2 million, or 13.2% of revenues, in the fiscal year ended January 31, 1997. The increase is due to additional administrative and selling costs associated with activity in the network products segment, and with two additional business lines which were added in the third quarter of the fiscal year ended January 31, 1996 and the first quarter of the fiscal year ended January 31, 1997, respectively. Research and development expenses. R&D expenses remained relatively unchanged from $0.6 million, or 1.1% of revenues, in the fiscal year ended January 31, 1996 compared to $0.5 million, or 1.0% of revenues, in the fiscal year ended January 31, 1997. Since most of the Company's research and development efforts were funded directly under development contracts, company-expended R&D costs represent a relatively minor portion of the Company's total costs. Interest expense. Interest expense remained relatively constant at $2.0 million and $1.9 million in the fiscal years ended January 31, 1996 and 1997, respectively. The Company's borrowing levels and interest rates were generally constant over the two periods. Provision for income taxes. The Company's effective tax rate was 41.1% for the fiscal year ended January 31, 1996 and 40.9% for the fiscal year ended January 31, 1997. 20 22 FISCAL YEAR ENDED JANUARY 31, 1996 VS. FISCAL YEAR ENDED JANUARY 31, 1995 Revenues. Revenues decreased by $4.8 million, or 8.2%, from $57.7 million in the fiscal year ended January 31, 1995 to $52.9 million in the fiscal year ended January 31, 1996, primarily due to reduced scheduled hardware resales under the Company's communications engineering contracts resulting in reductions in revenues of $4.6 million. Cost of revenues. Cost of revenues decreased from $47.8 million, or 83.0% of revenues, in the fiscal year ended January 31, 1995, to $43.5 million, or 82.3% of revenues, in the fiscal year ended January 31, 1996. This reduction in cost of revenues is consistent with the revenue decrease during the period. Selling, general and administrative expenses. SG&A decreased from $7.4 million, or 12.8% of revenues, in the fiscal year ended January 31, 1995, to $6.3 million, or 11.8% of revenues, in the fiscal year ended January 31, 1996. This reduction is attributable in part to a one-time payment in the fiscal year ended January 31, 1995 of $0.9 million relating to settlement of certain contract disputes arising from events occurring prior to 1991. In addition, the Company reduced the number of administrative support personnel during the fiscal year ended January 31, 1996, resulting in a cost savings of approximately $0.5 million. Research and development expenses. R&D expenses increased from $0.2 million, or 0.4% of revenues, in the fiscal year ended January 31, 1995 to $0.6 million, or 1.1% of revenues, in the fiscal year ended January 31, 1996. This increase is due principally to increased development effort of the Company's networking products. Interest expense. Interest expense increased from $1.7 million in the fiscal year ended January 31, 1995 to $2.0 million in the fiscal year ended January 31, 1996. The increase of $0.3 million in interest expense reflects the cost of higher working capital borrowings under the Company's bank line of credit, partially due to the U.S. government's temporary shutdown. Provision for income taxes. The Company's effective tax rate was 41.1% in the fiscal year ended January 31, 1996, as compared to 35.3% for the fiscal year ended January 31, 1995. The variation in the effective tax rate is primarily attributable to a revision of prior years' tax estimates which reduced the effective tax rate for the fiscal year ended January 31, 1995. FISCAL YEAR ENDED JANUARY 31, 1995 VS. FISCAL YEAR ENDED JANUARY 31, 1994 Revenues. Revenues increased by $1.8 million, or 3.1%, from $55.9 million in the fiscal year ended January 31, 1994 to $57.7 million in the fiscal year ended January 31, 1995. The change in revenues includes an increase in revenues associated with the Company's communications engineering and information systems business areas, offset in part by reductions in revenues from nuclear-related programs. Cost of revenues. Cost of revenues increased from $46.7 million, or 83.4% of revenues, in the fiscal year ended January 31, 1994 to $47.8 million, or 83.0% of revenues, primarily due to the increase in revenues. Selling, general and administrative expenses. SG&A expenses increased from $6.6 million, or 11.8% of revenues, in the fiscal year ended January 31, 1994, to $7.4 million, or 12.8% of revenues, in the fiscal year ended January 31, 1995. This increase was due entirely to a one-time payment of $0.9 million relating to settlement of certain contract disputes arising from events occurring prior to 1991. Research and development expenses. R&D expenses were unchanged from the fiscal year ended January 31, 1994 to the fiscal year ended January 31, 1995 at $0.2 million, representing 0.4% of revenues in both years. Interest expense. Interest expense was relatively unchanged at $1.7 million in the fiscal year ended January 31, 1995 as compared to $1.6 million in the fiscal year ended January 31, 1994. Provision for income taxes. The Company's effective tax rate was 35.3% in the fiscal year ended January 31, 1995. During the fiscal year ended January 31, 1994, the Company adopted a change in method of accounting for income taxes as required by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 109. The adoption of this standard resulted in a credit to income of $0.2 million. Without the effect of this one-time 21 23 credit, the effective tax rate was 40.0% in the fiscal year ended January 31, 1994. The variation in the effective tax rate is primarily attributable to a revision of prior years' tax estimates which reduced the effective tax rate for the fiscal year ended January 31, 1995. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The Company finances its operations and the purchase of property and equipment through borrowings under a short-term line of credit and term loans and from generation of cash from operations. The Company has a bank line of credit under which the Company may borrow up to $6.0 million, limited to specified percentages of eligible accounts receivable, at 7/8% over the bank's prime rate. As of April 30, 1997, the Company had $4.8 million outstanding under such line of credit, which accrued interest at an annual rate of 9.375%, and an additional $0.8 million was available for borrowing. The credit agreement relating to the credit line requires the Company to maintain certain financial ratios, limits the amount of dividends that the Company may pay, and prohibits the Company from further pledging any of its assets unless such pledge is in conjunction with obtaining term financing for the acquisition of new property and equipment. The credit line matures in October 1997, at which time the Company intends to seek renewal. While the Company believes that the line will be fully renewed, there can be no assurance that such renewal will occur. The Company has a zero-balance bank account arrangement whereby the Company makes daily borrowings under the credit line as necessary and all cash collections received are applied against the credit line balance on a daily basis. See Note 4 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. In addition to the working capital credit line which the Company intends to fully repay using proceeds of the offering, the Company borrows from secondary lenders for the acquisition of property and equipment. Such term debt is secured by purchased property and equipment and is payable in monthly principal and interest installments over a three-year term. During 1997 the acquisition of property and equipment was financed entirely by the working capital credit line. The Company also has a mortgage loan secured by its owned facility in San Diego, California. The mortgage requires monthly payments of principal, amortized over a 17-year period, and interest, which was payable at an annual rate of 8.96% as of April 30, 1997. See Note 5 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company had a working capital deficit of $908,000 at April 30, 1997. The working capital deficit arose from the Company's use of its short-term working capital credit line to finance purchases of non-current assets during the fiscal year ended January 31, 1997, including approximately $1.0 million in property and equipment and $0.3 million for the acquisition of certain other assets, and to finance the repurchase of Common Stock during the fiscal year ended January 31, 1997 for $0.5 million. The purchase of non-current assets during the three months ended April 30, 1997 was offset by proceeds from new term debt during the period. In the fiscal year ended January 31, 1997, net cash provided by operating activities was $3.9 million, including cash generated from a reduction in accounts receivable of $2.7 million. During the same period, $2.1 million in cash was used to repay short-term and long-term debt, $1.0 million was expended for property and equipment, and $0.5 million was used to finance the repurchase of Common Stock. In the three months ended April 30, 1997, net cash used in operating activities was $0.1 million. Traditionally, the Company's primary need for working capital has been driven only by the need to finance government accounts receivable. Because government contracts generally provide for reimbursement of costs as they are incurred, and the Company's contracting efforts have not typically required significant investment in capital equipment, research and development, or extensive marketing activities, there has not been a need for significant amounts of working capital in the past. As the Company's commercialization efforts increase and the need for additional personnel, equipment, inventory, research and development and marketing efforts grows, additional working capital beyond traditional levels will be required. Additionally, the Company's strategy of acquiring complementary companies may require additional capital. The Company believes that the net proceeds of the offering, together with the Company's capacity to borrow under existing working capital loan arrangements and secondary borrowings for property and equipment, will be sufficient for its working capital and capital expenditure needs for at least the twelve-month 22 24 period following this offering. Thereafter, if the Company's spending plans change, the Company may find it necessary to seek to obtain additional sources of financing to support its capital needs, but there can be no assurance that such financing will be available on commercially reasonable terms, if at all. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT Earnings per Share. In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 128, "Earnings per Share." SFAS No. 128 will be adopted by the Company as required in the fourth quarter of fiscal 1998. Upon adoption of SFAS No. 128, the Company will present basic earnings per share and diluted earnings per share. Basic earnings per share will be computed based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share will be computed based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period increased by the dilutive effect of potential common stock. Management is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of SFAS No. 128 will have on the Company's financial statements. 23 25 BUSINESS OVERVIEW Jaymark provides advanced technology products and services to the DoD and other government agencies, and commercializes selected government-funded technologies following a disciplined evaluation of market size and profitability. The Company's first products developed under this commercialization strategy are high-speed digital communication adapters which have been sold in production quantities since December 1996. These products, marketed under the FibreStar brand, are designed to the ANSI Fibre Channel standard. The Fibre Channel standard has become well supported in the industry because of its high performance, which includes (i) the highest commercially-available speed (2125 Mbps in full duplex), (ii) scalability (up to 126 nodes on a single loop), (iii) simplicity of installation and maintenance, (iv) multiprotocol transport (simultaneously within both storage and network environments), (v) long connection distance (up to six miles), and (vi) high reliability of data reception and absence of congestion with multiple users. FibreStar products provide essential hardware and software to reduce network congestion, thereby delivering substantial performance improvement to users requiring high-bandwidth data transmission capabilities, including multimedia, in such applications as (i) business and scientific computing, (ii) high volume database access for the financial and retail industries, and (iii) multistream digital video transmission and editing for the entertainment and broadcast industries. With over twenty years of government-funded advanced technology development, the Company has established several core competencies, including (i) electronic and electro-optic system design, (ii) communications engineering, (iii) electromagnetic effects, and (iv) nuclear and high-explosive weapon effects (e.g., blast and shock effects on structures). In 1991, under the leadership of new management, the Company began to target government contracts involving the development of proprietary technologies with potential commercial applications ("dual-use technologies"). The Company's objective is to increase profitability by leveraging its core competencies and its advanced government-funded research through commercialization of dual-use technologies. The key elements of the Company's strategy are to: - Establish FibreStar as a leading line of adapters in the emerging market for networking and storage products utilizing the Fibre Channel standard. - Selectively identify and commercialize additional dual-use technologies and products with compelling market potential, and establish separate business entities, when appropriate, to provide dedicated management and focused business objectives. - Maintain and expand core competencies to provide new proprietary technologies, products and resources through the pursuit of government-funded research and strategic acquisitions. The Company has recently formed a wholly owned subsidiary, Jaycor Networks, to which it contributed its FibreStar products and technology in order to capitalize on the commercial potential of these products. The efficient and rapid transfer of information throughout networks has become increasingly critical to the daily operation of business. The annual market for Fibre Channel adapters, such as the FibreStar products, is projected to grow from $68 million in 1996 to over $200 million in 1997 and to exceed $1 billion by the year 2000, according to an industry study by emf Associates and Andrew Prophet Research & Consulting, two networking consulting groups. The Company believes that only a small portion of this market is currently associated with independent suppliers of Fibre Channel adapters. In the future, however, the Company believes that independent suppliers, such as JNI, will supply a larger portion of the market. As an example of how widely the Fibre Channel standard has been adopted, JNI and 35 other companies exhibited a variety of their Fibre Channel product lines at the Comdex computer trade show meeting in November 1996, including Adaptec, Ancor Communications, Box Hill Systems, Digital Equipment Corporation, Emulex, Gadzoox Microsystems, Hewlett-Packard, Intel, Interphase, LSI Logic, QLogic, Quantum, Seagate Technology, Sun Microsystems, Texas Instruments, Unisys, Vitesse Semiconductor, and XPoint Technology. From December 1996 to April 1997, JNI shipped over $750,000 of FibreStar products. 24 26 The Company's government contract business is performed through Jaycor, its wholly owned subsidiary. Jaycor's objective is to maintain and expand its advanced technology government research base, which in turn will provide both the technology and resources for further product commercialization. Jaycor intends to focus on areas in which government funding is likely to remain stable or increase, while simultaneously identifying problems and providing solutions to the government in areas in which its core competencies provide a competitive advantage. Jaycor maintains active relationships with the Departments of Defense, State, Justice, Transportation, and Energy, and had approximately 200 contracts or subcontracts that generated revenue during the fiscal year ended January 31, 1997, which were funded by approximately 40 different government agencies, most of which are within the DoD. COMPANY STRATEGY The Company's strategy is to commercialize emerging technologies by leveraging its government-funded development efforts, which provide a source of dual-use technologies and the resources to develop such technologies. The key elements of this strategy are as follows: Establish FibreStar as a Leading Line of Adapters. FibreStar is the first technology to be commercialized by the Company from its government-funded research after both internal and independent analysis indicated significant market potential. The Company intends to establish JNI as a leading independent supplier of Fibre Channel adapters by (i) developing additional OEM and reseller arrangements, (ii) expanding and enhancing its product line, (iii) leveraging its existing relationships with resellers and OEMs with respect to SBus-to-Fibre Channel products to promote and market PCI-to-Fibre Channel products, (iv) developing timely responses to new market needs, and (v) continuing its commitment to product quality and customer service. See "-- Fibre Channel Network Products -- Strategy." Selectively Identify and Commercialize Dual-Use Technologies and Products. In 1991, under the leadership of new management, the Company adopted a strategy of developing dual-use technologies. As a result, the Company began to target government contracts involving development of proprietary technologies with commercial applications, and began to apply for patents to protect its proprietary position. Over the past six years, the Company has developed additional dual-use technologies which it believes have the potential for successful commercial applications, including: (i) a bomb-resistant luggage container designed for aircraft safety, (ii) an Auto-Arrestor to prevent or terminate dangerous high-speed chases, (iii) several non-lethal weapon applications for military and domestic security purposes, and (iv) several weapon detection systems. The Company intends to commercialize its technologies, but only after a disciplined evaluation of market size and profitability by both the Company and independent market consultants indicates a high probability of success. The Company will establish separate subsidiaries, when appropriate, to commercialize proprietary technologies in order to provide dedicated management and focused business objectives. Maintain and Expand Core Competencies. The Company focuses on government contracting opportunities in areas in which the Company's core competencies can provide unique solutions and in which the Company's reputation and experience provide a competitive advantage. The maintenance of its government services business is vital to the Company as a source of new proprietary technologies and products for commercialization, and the resources needed to successfully commercialize such technologies and products. In order to expand its advanced technology products and services business, the Company's strategy is to (i) target contracting opportunities in areas of increased funding, (ii) focus on high-technology contracting opportunities, and (iii) pursue acquisitions. To implement this strategy, the Company intends to foster key government relationships, retain key management and technical personnel, and remain cost competitive. See "-- Advanced Technology Products and Services -- Strategy." ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY PRODUCTS AND SERVICES OVERVIEW The Company provides advanced technology products and services to the DoD and other government agencies through its wholly owned subsidiary, Jaycor, which was founded in 1975. In 1991, under the leadership of new management, Jaycor refocused its technology base to pursue problems and solutions 25 27 relevant to the post-Cold War era and to emphasize, where possible, the development of dual-use technologies. Over 90% of Jaycor's revenues are generated through contracts funded by the DoD budget categories of research, development, test and evaluation ("RDT&E") and, to a lesser extent, operations and maintenance ("O&M"). While the overall defense budget declined following the Cold War by 17% in constant dollars from 1990 to 1997, the RDT&E budget category declined by only 5% over the same period. The RDT&E budget stabilized at approximately $35 billion in 1995, and is now increasing in certain areas relevant to Jaycor's core competencies. Such areas include intelligence and communications, systems research and development, electronic warfare, information systems, security, chemical and biological defense, and Advanced Concept Test Demonstrations, which include, among others, countermine, counterproliferation and cruise missile defense. STRATEGY Jaycor's objective is to maintain and expand its core competencies, which will provide both the technology and resources for further product commercialization. The key elements of Jaycor's strategy include the following: Target Contracting Opportunities in Areas of Increased Funding. Jaycor focuses marketing resources on areas in which government funding is likely to remain stable or increase, both within and outside of the DoD. Jaycor remains current on existing and emerging problems of interest in various government agencies and follows the budgeting and funding allocation process through Congress down to the agencies. As a result of this approach, Jaycor believes that increased funding opportunities will be available in its areas of interest, including: communications installation and maintenance, land mine warfare and countermine systems, electronic and information warfare, aviation safety and counterterrorism, law enforcement, chemical/ biological defense and the environment. Focus on Advanced Technology Opportunities. Jaycor pursues contracts in areas in which its proprietary technologies or hardware provide: (i) innovative solutions to government problems, (ii) a competitive advantage, and (iii) opportunities for developing dual-use technologies. To maximize this advantage, Jaycor often demonstrates the viability of proposed technical solutions as a part of government-reimbursable internal research and development ("IR&D") efforts, leading to either unsolicited or solicited proposals. For example, Jaycor developed the Auto-Arrestor to safely stop fleeing vehicles with IR&D funds as a part of a preproposal effort for the Department of Justice. Pursue Acquisitions. Jaycor plans to broaden its contracting base and enter new markets by acquiring other contracting companies that augment Jaycor's government contracting activities. For example, in 1996 Jaycor enhanced its ability to deliver complete microwave systems by acquiring the Power Systems Design Group, which designs and manufactures specialty power supplies. CORE COMPETENCIES AND CUSTOMER SOLUTIONS Jaycor pursues contracting opportunities in areas in its core competencies, which are: Electronic and Electro-Optic System Design. Jaycor has expertise in the design and manufacture of electronic and electro-optic systems, including communications, surveillance and weapon detection sensors, mine detection radars, directed-energy systems and electronic warfare. Jaycor uses these capabilities in a wide variety of government contracts such as the design and fabrication of radiation-hardened space-borne computers for potential use on military satellites, and the design and manufacture of electronic power supplies for use with directed-energy weapon systems. Communications Engineering. Jaycor has significant experience in fixed and mobile communication systems design, installation, maintenance, logistics support and related personnel training. These systems include telephone, microwave, VHF/UHF and satellite systems. For example, Jaycor currently provides engineering, provisioning, testing, training, upgrades, repair, security, equipment configuration management, 26 28 and operations support at a facility for an Air Force agency. Jaycor is also designing and installing upgraded telecommunications systems at various military facilities around the world. Electromagnetic Effects. Jaycor applies its understanding of electromagnetic effects on the operation of electronic systems to design weapon system concepts to defeat adversaries' electronic systems, and to develop design techniques to protect U.S. systems from adverse effects resulting from natural and man-made sources of RF energy. Jaycor has contracts to design and demonstrate electromagnetic and electronic warfare weapon concepts, and to develop design techniques to prevent degradation of system performance in hostile electromagnetic environments. Weapon Effects. Through 20 years of contracting for the DoD, Jaycor has developed an understanding of the effects of a broad range of military weapons on electronic systems and mechanical structures such as satellites, missiles, missile silos and other structures. Jaycor has contracts to design and test techniques that allow electronic and electro-optic systems to operate in hostile radiation environments characteristic of post-Cold War weapon threats. Jaycor is using this technology to develop non-military products for post-Cold War applications such as bomb containment and weapon detection systems. Other Core Competencies. Jaycor also maintains a depth of experience in information systems database management, large-scale interactive computing, security and counterterrorism, biological/chemical defense and environmental remediation. These core competencies have supported a wide variety of contracts, such as the management of a database for military personnel medical histories, large-scale interactive computer simulations for war gaming, the design of security systems for U.S. embassies and simulation of chemical/biological agent dispersion. POTENTIAL COMMERCIAL OPPORTUNITIES As part of its government-funded research, Jaycor develops innovative dual-use technologies and products. The Company's first commercial products, its FibreStar adapters, were developed from Jaycor's experience in developing and delivering specialized high-speed data transmission systems for the DoD. See "-- Fibre Channel Network Products." Jaycor currently is involved in several additional government-funded product development efforts that the Company believes may lead to commercial applications. Hardened Luggage Container. Current airport security equipment cannot detect certain smaller explosive devices that are capable of causing significant damage. Under a contract with the Federal Aviation Agency ("FAA"), Jaycor has developed and successfully tested prototype units of a hardened luggage container which is capable of containing the detonation and suppressing the fires caused by such devices. This container conforms to International Air Transport Association specifications for luggage containers and is designed to provide greater durability than existing containers used in ordinary commercial service. Because this hardened luggage container will cost more to purchase and to operate due to its increased weight over existing luggage containers, Jaycor believes that commercial airlines will not readily purchase the containers until FAA regulations require the mandatory use of such a hardened luggage container. The FAA has purchased two additional prototype units from the Company. In addition, Jaycor submitted a proposal in response to a Request for Proposal ("RFP") issued by the FAA, to acquire up to 60 units over a 12-month period for test and evaluation by the airlines. The resulting information will be used to determine cost and reliability data as part of the regulatory process. Jaycor is also pursuing additional applications of this containment technology. Handheld Acoustic Weapon Detector. Jaycor has developed an ultrasonic imaging device under DoD contract that can detect small objects, including concealed weapons, on individuals at distances from three to ten feet. Currently there is no low-cost product known to the Company to image concealed weapons in a nonintrusive manner. The objective of the current contract is to fabricate a pre-prototype system for test and evaluation. The Company plans to continue development under government contract. Auto-Arrestor. Using IR&D funds, Jaycor designed and tested the Auto-Arrestor as part of its pre-proposal effort to the Department of Justice to develop technologies to stop fleeing motor vehicles quickly and safely. Law enforcement officials estimate that each year there are over 40,000 high-speed chases between police and motorists on the roadways, resulting in approximately 400 deaths, millions of dollars in property 27 29 damages, and personal injuries. The Auto-Arrestor uses an electromagnetic pulse to disrupt the ignition of a motor vehicle, causing it to come to a controlled stop. The Auto-Arrestor has been tested, generally with success, on highways in Colorado, at the border crossing in San Diego, California, and in safety and effectiveness tests at the Army Research Laboratory in Adelphi, Maryland. Non-Lethal Projectiles. Pursuant to a contract with the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, Jaycor has developed and demonstrated a low-velocity blunt prototype electrical projectile which can be used by the military and police with existing weapons to subdue suspects with non-lethal force. With IR&D funds, Jaycor has developed and demonstrated the ability to deliver pepper spray at distances up to 50 feet quickly and accurately by encapsulating the pepper spray in small spherical gel balls. The Company has applied for a patent, and the military is planning to test and evaluate this weapon in the coming year. Ground-Penetration Radar for Buried Land Mine Detection. In 1996, Jaycor completed a contract for a proof-of-principle standoff mine detection system. Pursuant to a new contract issued by the DoD in August 1996, Jaycor is now developing a prototype system to be used in an advanced technology development program. Approximately $7 million in funding has been earmarked for this contract, which will last a minimum of 27 months. Jaycor's proprietary system is the only system known by the Company that can detect mines at ranges up to approximately 100 feet. CUSTOMERS Jaycor maintains active relationships with the Departments of Defense, State, Justice, Transportation, and Energy, and had approximately 200 contracts or subcontracts that generated revenue during the fiscal year ended January 31, 1997 which were funded by approximately 40 different government agencies, most of which are within the DoD. In addition, for the year ended January 31, 1997 and the three months ended April 30, 1997, approximately 32% and 28%, respectively of Jaycor's revenues were derived from approximately 40 contracts with DSWA and approximately 14% and 16%, respectively of Jaycor's revenues were derived from contracts with SM-ALC. In those instances where Jaycor teams with other companies to bid for contracts, it may become either the prime contractor or a subcontractor under the contract. Jaycor's relationship with the funding government agency frequently does not differ substantially between a prime contractor and a subcontractor. COMPETITION Jaycor's competitors generally fall into three broad classes, including (i) smaller companies which have a high degree of specialization in one government contract segment (e.g., Mission Research Corporation), (ii) medium-to-large-sized companies that compete with Jaycor for a broad range of government contracts (e.g., Science Applications International Corporation, EG&G and Kaman Sciences), and (iii) extremely large aerospace and defense contractors that rarely compete with Jaycor except for certain prototype development contracts which involve large-scale sophisticated technology or large multi-year contracts (e.g., Hughes, Lockheed-Martin, TRW and Raytheon). Many of Jaycor's competitors have substantially greater technical, financial, marketing and other resources than Jaycor. No assurance can be given that Jaycor's competitors will not bid for or deliver their solutions in a more effective or efficient manner, which would significantly adversely affect Jaycor's potential market share. Jaycor believes that the critical success factors in its market are the ability to (i) develop proprietary technology, (ii) maintain technological superiority, (iii) maintain customer satisfaction, (iv) adapt to changing budget priorities, (v) identify and provide cost-effective solutions for government applications, and (vi) continue to recruit and retain highly-skilled personnel. PROCUREMENT OF GOVERNMENT CONTRACTS Jaycor competes for most of its contracts in an open bidding process. RFPs are generally advertised in The Commerce Business Daily, a government publication. Bids are generally due from 30 to 60 days after the release of the RFP, and the ensuing proposal evaluation process generally requires three to six months. Jaycor typically bids on three types of government contracts: (i) CPFF, (ii) T&M, and (iii) fixed-price. CPFF contracts provide for reimbursement for all of Jaycor's allowable costs and a fixed profit. T&M 28 30 contracts require Jaycor to provide a certain number of labor hours at a rate prescribed by the contract. Jaycor is reimbursed for the hours spent on T&M contracts at the prescribed labor rate for each category and for all materials utilized. The fee in a T&M contract is generally slightly higher than for CPFF contracts. Fixed-price contracts require Jaycor to deliver the work product described in the work statement at a fixed price, which has the largest risk to Jaycor, but generally also has the largest potential profit margin. In the year ended January 31, 1997, approximately 78%, 8%, and 14% and in the three months ended April 30, 1997, approximately 82%, 5% and 13% of Jaycor's government contract revenues were derived from CPFF, T&M, and fixed-price contracts, respectively. The nature of Jaycor's government contracts requires ongoing interaction between Jaycor's key management and technical personnel and the various government agencies. These interactions provide Jaycor with useful insight with respect to its customers needs, and lead to opportunities to submit solicited or unsolicited proposals to address these needs. BACKLOG Jaycor's total contract backlog was $68.5 million and $69.5 million as of January 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively. The amount of backlog which had been funded as of January 31, 1997 and 1996, was $23.6 million and $24.1 million, respectively. Additionally, certain contracts contain provisions which allow the government, under terms specified in the contract, to extend the period of performance or to add additional work beyond the current contract scope. The backlog value of these unexercised options as of January 31, 1997 and 1996 which has been included in the total contract backlog was $32.3 million and $34.3 million, respectively. Although there can be no assurance that full contractual funding will be received, the Company expects, based on previous history, that substantially all contracts which are not yet fully funded, including unexercised contract options, will ultimately be funded. PROPRIETARY INFORMATION AND INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY Since 1991, Jaycor's strategy shifted to pursuing contracts with dual-use technologies. Simultaneously, Jaycor began to patent technologies and products with commercial potential. Jaycor has ten U.S. patents that have issued or been allowed, and seven additional U.S. patent applications have been filed. In addition, Jaycor has one corresponding foreign patent that has been issued, and five additional corresponding foreign patent applications have been filed. Under certain standard provisions in government contracts, the government may retain certain rights, which are often limited, in technology developed under or arising out of work performed under such contracts. For example, by fulfilling contract disclosure requirements, a contractor can retain ownership of a patent covering an invention developed under a contract funded by the DoD. The government retains a nonexclusive, royalty-free license to use such patents. If a contractor fails to disclose the invention to the government in a timely manner, however, the contractor may lose all rights to the invention. The regulations with respect to agencies other than the DoD may differ. In addition, the regulations governing ownership of data rights developed under government contract differ among various agencies and have been revised over the years. For example, prior to 1995 a contractor who developed data or software under a contract funded by the DoD would be able to claim copyright ownership of the data or software, but the government would generally retain unlimited rights to use the data or software for any purpose, including providing it to another contractor for competitive purposes. With respect to data or software delivered under DoD contract, but developed at private expense, the government generally retains only limited or restricted rights to use such data or software for its own purposes. The regulations with respect to agencies other than the DoD differ, but generally allow the contractor to retain certain rights. 29 31 FIBRE CHANNEL NETWORK PRODUCTS OVERVIEW The Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Jaycor Networks, designs, develops and markets high-speed digital communications adapters based on the Fibre Channel standard approved by the ANSI in 1994. FibreStar products provide essential hardware and software to reduce network congestion through (i) the highest commercially available speed, (ii) scalability, (iii) simplicity, (iv) multiprotocol transport, (v) increased connection distance, and (vi) high reliability of data reception and absence of congestion with multiple users. FibreStar products provide significant opportunities for business solutions in such applications as (i) business and scientific computing, (ii) high volume database access for the financial and retail industries, and (iii) multistream digital video transmission and editing for the entertainment and broadcast industries. The annual market for Fibre Channel adapters, such as the FibreStar products, is projected to grow from $68 million in 1996 to over $200 million in 1997 and to exceed $1 billion by the year 2000, according to an industry study by emf Associates and Andrew Prophet Research & Consulting, two networking consulting groups. Building on the Company's core competence in electronic and electro-optic system design, FibreStar products were developed using the experience Jaycor gained from 1991 through 1993 in designing specialized high-speed data transmission systems for the DoD. After Jaycor's evaluation of the commercial potential of the technology was confirmed by a market study conducted by the Anderson Graduate School of Management at UCLA, Jaycor began designing its initial prototype, an SBus-to-Fibre Channel adapter, in 1993. Subsequently, a study by two independent high-technology consulting firms, Technology Strategies and Alliances and Eminent Technologies, Inc., confirmed the commercial potential for Fibre Channel products and outlined product development and marketing options. INDUSTRY BACKGROUND The Fibre Channel standard is a computer and data storage interface specification approved by the ANSI in 1994. When compared to existing standards, Fibre Channel provides increased bandwidth for data communication, increased distance over which data can be transmitted at high speeds, guaranteed data delivery, and scalability to large numbers of network connections. The Fibre Channel standard builds on industry experience to combine attractive features of both network and storage protocols, and is the only standard that can transport both network and storage protocols simultaneously over the same interface. Fibre Channel provides 1063 Mbps transmission capabilities in half duplex and 2125 Mbps in full duplex. Additionally, the Fibre Channel standard permits connection of a data warehouse to a network without a storage server, resulting in lower costs of ownership and increased reliability. It is being used to improve performance of computer networks and data storage systems in a wide variety of applications. The demand for and resulting application of Fibre Channel products is being driven by three compelling market needs: Increasing Requirements for Timely Retrieval and Archiving of Massive Amounts of Data. In the past decade, organizations have become increasingly aware that the ability to collect, analyze and distribute information in a timely and efficient manner through computer networks is a key determinant of their business success. However, business requirements to transmit increasing volumes of information have grown beyond the capability of commonly employed computer networks (e.g., Ethernet networks) to deliver data in a timely fashion. During the past ten years, the amount of computing power commonly available in personal computers has increased approximately 200 times. During that same period, the amount of disk storage available in the desktop computer has increased approximately 180 times, while enterprise system storage has increased hundreds of times beyond that at the desktop. The connections to storage arrays (e.g., SCSI and IDE) have not kept pace, and the various storage interfaces do not meet current and future requirements for speed, distance and scalability. With the introduction of high-speed Fibre Channel disc drives by Seagate Technology in 1996, and the availability of SBus-to-Fibre Channel adapters and PCI Bus-to-Fibre Channel adapters, such as the FibreStar products, Fibre Channel is emerging as a preferred solution to network storage bottlenecks by 30 32 providing a substantial increase in data transfer rates (up to 2125 Mbps in storage connections using full duplex). Increasing Requirements for Bandwidth in Computer Networks. During the past decade, new and more complex applications, such as desktop publishing, distributed database management and the processing requirements of multimedia information, have strained the ability of many networks to reliably handle the vastly increased volume and density of traffic. These networks, particularly those based on Ethernet, Fast Ethernet or Token Ring technologies are increasingly subject to traffic bottlenecks at the servers and congestion between clients, frequently resulting in long response times and reduced productivity. Products based on ATM offer slightly higher bandwidth than Fast Ethernet, but when an ATM network becomes congested, data packets are discarded. A recent survey in Storage Management Solutions, an industry magazine, concluded that network performance and response time were the most frequently cited worries of information system managers. The data transfer rates, low latency, scalability and distance capability of Fibre Channel provide cost-effective solutions for these information management problems. Fibre Channel is the only solution known to the Company that eliminates the connection as the bandwidth-limiting element in both computing and storage networks at a reasonable cost. Additional technologies and advanced networking protocols, such as Gigabit Ethernet, are under development, but are not yet standardized and have not yet been widely deployed commercially. In addition, Ethernet networks, including the proposed Gigabit Ethernet, are based upon a collision-domain access method that limits the usable bandwidth to an estimated 30% to 40% of the maximum rated bandwidth. In Ethernet networks, data reliability also decreases as the number of users are increased. In contrast, Fibre Channel is able to utilize nearly 100% of the maximum available bandwidth while maintaining high data reliability as users are added to the network. The Company estimates that in 1996, products designed to the Fibre Channel standard comprised less than 2% of the worldwide network interface card market, and the Company believes that Fibre Channel products accounted for an even smaller percentage of the total storage protocol market. Based on the enhanced performance offered by Fibre Channel and the projections of industry analysts, the Company believes that the market share of Fibre Channel products will increase over the next few years. The figure below compares both common networking and storage interface protocols with Fibre Channel, which alone can transport either or both network and storage protocols simultaneously over the same interface. FIBRE CHANNEL IS FASTER THAN OTHER COMMON COMMERCIAL INTERFACE PROTOCOLS [Bar graph comparing Fibre Channel to other network and storage protocols, illustrating the following protocols and megabits per second: Ethernet (10), Fast Ethernet (100), Token Ring (40), FDDI (100), ATM OCI (155), ATM OC3 (622), SCSI (80), SCSI 2 (160), Ultra SCSI (320) and Fibre Channel (1063).] 31 33 Increased Use of Clustered PCs and Workstations. The increased computing power of PCs and workstations and high-bandwidth links make it possible for clustered PCs and workstations to fulfill functions formerly performed by mainframe computers and at a lower cost of ownership. Clustering also allows scalability, since computing power can be added incrementally as needs grow. Fibre Channel, combining features of networking and computing channel standards, provides a high bandwidth bidirectional link for communication among workstations at internal bus speeds. As an open standard, Fibre Channel operates with widely used workstations and PCs, and creates market opportunities for high-speed digital communication adapters, such as the FibreStar products, that are well suited for clustering applications. The following diagrams illustrate a network implemented with two different technologies. In the first diagram, multiple disk drives, represented as cabinets of RAIDs, communicate with a file server over the commonly used SCSI type connection. The file server communicates to workstations over an FDDI protocol. Multiple SCSI connections and multiple FDDI connections to the bridge are necessary to deliver 100 Mbps to individual users. FILE STREAMING WITH A SCSI/FDDI NETWORK REQUIRES MULTIPLE STORAGE CONNECTIONS WHILE DELIVERING ONLY 100 MBPS TO USERS [Schematic diagram illustrating a file streaming SCSI/FDDI network. Cabinets of RAIDs communicate with a file server over a SCSI type connection (2 x 160 Mbps), and the file server communicates to workstations over multiple FDDI connections (4 x 100 Mbps) to a bridge.] 32 34 In the following diagram, the RAIDs are connected with workstations in a Fibre Channel loop configuration. Additionally, Fibre Channel permits direct, common access to the disk drives over large distances, eliminating the need for a file server. Communication to individual workstations is accomplished through a Fibre Channel adapter, such as a FibreStar adapter, located in each workstation, or two Fibre Channel adapters in each workstation for redundant loops. Distribution of connectivity to individual workstations can be provided by a Fibre Channel hub or switch. Workstations communicate with each other through the hub or switch by using a network protocol and with the RAID cabinet by using a storage protocol. FILE STREAMING WITH A FIBRESTAR NETWORK CAN DELIVER 1063 MBPS TO USERS OVER A SINGLE STORAGE CONNECTION [SCHEMATIC DIAGRAM ILLUSTRATING A FILE STREAMING FIBRE CHANNEL NETWORK, COMMUNICATION TO WORKSTATIONS IS ACCOMPLISHED THROUGH FIBRESTAR ADAPTERS (1063 MBPS), AND COMMUNICATE WITH EACH OTHER THROUGH A HUB OR SWITCH AND WITH A RAID CABINET] FIBRE CHANNEL REPLACES A STANDARD SCSI/FDDI NETWORK WITH HIGHER PERFORMANCE - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SCSI/FDDI ---------------------------------- STORAGE NETWORK FEATURE FIBRE CHANNEL ------------------------- STORAGE & NETWORK - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bandwidth 400 Mbps 100 Mbps 1063 Mbps - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Simultaneous Storage/Network No No Yes Protocol Support (server is not required) - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Connections 15 per bus 1,000 maximum 126 per loop (16,000,000 maximum) - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Maximum Cable Length 98 feet 25 miles 6 miles - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 33 35 Fibre Channel networking devices, such as the FibreStar products, provide high performance through: - HIGHEST COMMERCIALLY AVAILABLE SPEED: Communication bandwidth of 1063 Mbps in half duplex and 2125 Mbps in full duplex is available today. - HIGHEST RELIABILITY AND EFFECTIVE BANDWIDTH: Fibre Channel's credit-based access method assures high data reliability and maximum utilization of the network (as compared with a 30% to 40% utilization of Ethernet's collision-based access method). - SCALABILITY: Up to 126 nodes can be connected on a single loop; approximately 16 million can be connected through cascaded switches. - RELATIVE SIMPLICITY OF INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE: Fibre Channel uses thin cables and connectors as opposed to SCSI, that requires cumbersome, thick cables that operate over relatively short distances. - MULTIPROTOCOL TRANSPORT: Storage and network protocols can be transported over Fibre Channel simultaneously; SCSI, Ethernet, and FDDI data frames are readily carried by Fibre Channel. - CONNECTION DISTANCE: Connections at full bandwidth can extend up to 98 feet over copper wire and up to six miles over fiber optics without repeaters. - NETWORK ATTACHED STORAGE: As a consequence of multiprotocol transport capability, arrays of disk drives can be connected directly to the network. - GROWTH PATH TO THE FUTURE: The Fibre Channel standard is designed to allow data transmission bandwidths up to 4251 Mbps in half duplex and 8502 Mbps in full duplex, which is four times the capability of existing Fibre Channel products. Fibre Channel products are now being used in a number of industries for: - Digital image processing in advertising, print and entertainment industries - Processing and sharing of medical images - Storage and retrieval of imaged documents - Financial and retail transaction processing - Computer-aided design and design automation - Scientific and engineering computing The Fibre Channel standard is well supported in the data communications and computer networking industry. The Fibre Channel Association, an industry trade group, has over 100 member companies, including: Sun Microsystems, Seagate Technology, Digital Equipment Corporation, Hewlett-Packard, Unisys, Fujitsu, Sony, EMC Corporation, Compaq Computer, NTT (Japan), Mitsubishi, Hitachi, Matsushita, Amdahl Computer, Intel, LSI Logic, Motorola, Tektronix, Lucent Technologies, Siemens Nixdorf, McDonnell Douglas, Panasonic and Electronic Data Systems. Many companies have introduced Fibre Channel products for storage and computing. At the Comdex computer trade show meeting in November 1996, Fibre Channel products were exhibited by JNI and 35 other companies, including Adaptec, Ancor Communications, Box Hill Systems, Digital Equipment Corporation, Emulex, Gadzoox Microsystems, Hewlett-Packard, Intel, Interphase, LSI Logic, QLogic, Quantum, Seagate Technology, Sun Microsystems, Texas Instruments, Unisys, Vitesse Semiconductor, and XPoint Technology. JNI believes that the introduction of additional Fibre Channel products in 1997 by OEMs, for which JNI has been qualified as a supplier of adapters, should increase the market for adapters in the near term. THE JNI SOLUTION FibreStar products address the need for high-bandwidth communication between networked computers, workstations and data storage units. Based upon the following analysis of the market which was performed in 34 36 1993, JNI targeted its initial product offerings for the SBus environment, before expanding to the PCI bus environment: - Fibre Channel will initially be used in high performance workstations and servers and with large storage units. There will be many more workstations sold than large storage units. Each Fibre Channel workstation and server connection will require one or more Fibre Channel adapters, resulting in a larger volume market for adapters. - Unix-based SBus-compatible computers, principally from Sun Microsystems, account for more than half of the servers and workstations sold worldwide, dominating the high-end market. - Computers using the PCI bus will provide a second market for FibreStar adapters, and are expected to exceed the SBus market near the end of the decade. By taking a position as a leading supplier of Fibre Channel products for the SBus market and the Sun Solaris operating system, JNI intends to integrate with an OEM customer base and then sell PCI bus FibreStar adapters as those customers move their product to the PCI bus. JNI believes that the OEM customer base can serve as a reference to expand FibreStar product market share for PCI bus adapters. JNI commenced designing and developing the FibreStar SBus-to-Fibre Channel adapters in June 1993, resulting in a beta release in May 1995 to key OEMs developing products that required a Fibre Channel interface. JNI has developed FibreStar SBus-to-Fibre Channel adapters for installation in computers compatible with the Sun Microsystems SBus specification, including some manufactured by companies such as Hewlett-Packard, Fujitsu and Digital Equipment Corporation. JNI first shipped commercial versions of these SBus-to-Fibre Channel adapters in May 1995, and commenced volume production in December 1996. JNI is currently a leading independent supplier of Fibre Channel adapters for SBus platforms, supporting the Solaris operating system with software drivers for networking and storage connections. Suppliers of SBus-compatible computers running the Solaris operating system are expected to incorporate the PCI bus into these computers in increasing numbers. JNI is developing enhancements to the drivers for its FibreStar PCI Bus-to-Fibre Channel adapters to support the migration to this platform. For DEC Alpha, Power PC and Intel processor-based computers with the PCI bus, JNI began supplying beta versions of its FibreStar PCI Bus-to-Fibre Channel adapters in July 1996. JNI currently supports the Windows NT and Solaris X86 operating systems with networking and storage software drivers. STRATEGY JNI's objective is to continue to strengthen its position as a leading independent supplier of Fibre Channel networking products. JNI seeks to achieve this objective by implementing the following strategic elements: Develop Additional OEM and Reseller Arrangements. JNI primarily markets and sells its products through reseller relationships and directly to OEMs which incorporate FibreStar adapters into the OEM's product offerings. JNI intends to capitalize on the increased demand for Fibre Channel products by negotiating volume purchase agreements with other major storage suppliers and integrators, as well as expanding relationships with resellers and OEMs. Expand and Enhance Product Line. JNI's plan for product development and introduction is based on expected trends in the marketplace. For example, JNI intends to extend the range of its hardware and software offerings to 64-bit server systems and for the higher bandwidth Fibre Channel connections. JNI also intends to capitalize on its understanding of the Fibre Channel technology to enhance the competitive price and performance characteristics and the functionality of its products. Leverage OEM and Reseller Relationships for SBus Products to Promote PCI Bus Products. OEM customers often prefer to purchase similar types of products from a supplier with whom they have an established relationship because issues associated with integration of OEM products and product plans, technical support, and reliability have already been successfully resolved. Similarly, resellers tend to prefer selling products from companies with an established product base backed by customer references. Since the architecture and software for the FibreStar SBus and PCI bus products are similar, JNI seeks to use its 35 37 leverage as a leading supplier of FibreStar SBus-to-Fibre Channel adapters to capitalize on these purchasing patterns in marketing PCI Bus-to-Fibre Channel products. Develop Timely Responses to New Market Needs. JNI intends to address anticipated market demand for its products in the areas of clustered computers and workstations, data storage and warehousing (including database storage and digital video/multimedia applications), and in upgrades of existing networks. JNI participates in special-interest working groups within the Fibre Channel Association to keep abreast of developments in emerging and future markets. Continue Commitment to Product Quality and Customer Service. JNI is dedicated to ongoing quality improvement and intends to continue to provide the high level of service and technical support that has distinguished JNI in the current marketplace. PRODUCTS JNI products provide essential hardware and software to address existing market needs for high-bandwidth network connections between computers and between networked computers, workstations and data storage units. JNI designs, develops and markets FibreStar adapters for installation in SBus and PCI bus compatible computers. The current 32-bit adapters can be used in the common switched and loop network architectures with copper cable connections of up to 98 feet and with fiber optic connections of up to six miles. The adapters are offered in several versions to respond to various application needs. FIBRESTAR SBUS-TO-FIBRE CHANNEL ADAPTERS - Adapters are provided at bandwidths of either 266 Mbps or 1063 Mbps. - The 266 Mbps version is provided with optical fiber input/output ports. - The 1063 Mbps version is provided with input/output ports for connection to either copper cables or to fiber optics. - Communications software drivers for SCSI and TCP/IP protocols for the Solaris operating system versions 2.4 and higher. - FibreStar adapters have operated successfully in Sun Microsystems, SparcStations 5, 10 and 20, UltraSparcs 1 and 2, and the Sun 1000E Enterprise Server. FIBRESTAR PCI BUS-TO-FIBRE CHANNEL ADAPTERS - Adapters are provided at bandwidths of either 266 Mbps or 1063 Mbps. - The 266 Mbps version is provided with optical fiber input/output ports. - The 1063 Mbps version is provided with input/output ports for connection through removable I/O modules to either copper cables or to fiber optics. The 1063 Mbps versions with integrated I/O copper or optical connections are also sold. - Communications software drivers for SCSI and TCP/IP protocols for the Windows NT operating system versions 3.51 and 4.0, and Solaris X86. - FibreStar adapters have operated successfully in several PCI platforms including Intel Pentium-based computers made by Dell, Micron, Packard Bell, Compaq, Gateway and Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC Alpha). The list prices for JNI's adapters range from approximately $1,500 to $3,600 depending on configuration and volume. JNI also sells 266 Mbps Fibre Channel switch products under an OEM agreement with Hewlett-Packard and 1063 Mbps eight-port stackable Fibre Channel hubs produced in an OEM relationship with Gadzoox Microelectronics. 36 38 SALES AND MARKETING JNI markets and sells its products primarily through resellers and OEMs. JNI has developed and continues to develop its OEM relationships (frequently in tandem with its resellers and sales representatives) by actively involving its sales, marketing and engineering personnel, and senior management. In particular, JNI has found that involving experienced engineers in the OEM sales process enables close technical collaboration with the customer during the evaluation and subsequent qualification of the product, often speeding the process with timely problem solving, and establishing confidence in the technical support that can be expected from JNI. JNI has established strategic relationships with other Fibre Channel product companies, including Hewlett-Packard and Gadzoox, pursuant to which such companies provide switches and hubs under the FibreStar brand. These relationships allow JNI to offer a suite of interoperable solutions. In the United States, JNI sells FibreStar products primarily through direct sales. To extend its geographic coverage, JNI has entered into reseller agreements with Hucom to represent and sell FibreStar products in Japan, and also with Computer Overseas Corporation for Western Europe. These agreements do not provide the resellers with any rights of return or price protection. JNI supports both its resellers and sales representatives through training seminars, direct sales support and technical support. CUSTOMERS Through April 30, 1997, JNI has sold over 40% of its adapters to Hucom for resale to end users in Japan. JNI expects that its future customers will be comprised primarily of OEMs and resellers. Since February 1996 JNI has also sold adapters in initial evaluation orders to over 40 additional purchasers. Of those purchasers, seven have completed their evaluation phase and five have placed orders in production quantities. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT JNI plans to remain competitive through continued investment in product enhancement and new product development. JNI intends to focus its product development efforts on areas of perceived need as the Fibre Channel market develops. JNI believes that the near-term market demands will be driven by the need for large storage arrays with maximum bandwidth, low latency and high reliability, coupled with a desire to reduce the cost per connection. Consequently, JNI is focusing on the requirement for increased bandwidth by developing FibreStar Fibre Channel adapters and drivers for 64-bit PCI bus and SBus platforms from Sun Microsystems, Inc., Digital Equipment Corporation, Hewlett-Packard and others. To reduce cost, the proprietary designs will be simplified with new ASICs. JNI intends to evaluate future opportunities to develop products that will address the needs of related markets for digital video transmission and video conferencing. JNI also intends to develop additional products focused on establishing its network products as a market leader in market segments where the high bandwidth provided by Fibre Channel products offers compelling economic advantages, such as high-volume data storage and transaction environments, video on demand and multiple-user multimedia networking. These planned products are intended to extend the range of applicability of JNI's hardware and software offerings into high-end 64-bit server systems and into intranets. JNI also intends to enhance the products for higher bandwidth (2125 and 4251 Mbps) interconnects as standards and market needs develop. COMPETITION The computer networking industry is intensely competitive, subject to rapid change, and significantly affected by new product introductions and other market activities of industry participants. JNI competes with companies offering products based on the Fibre Channel standard, as well as companies offering products based on competing standards. JNI believes that the principal competitive factors in the computer networking market include the completeness of product offerings, product quality, price and performance, adherence to industry standards, the degree of interoperability with other networking equipment, and time to market for 37 39 new products. Many of JNI's current and potential competitors have significantly greater financial, technical, marketing and other resources and larger installed bases than JNI. Increased competition could result in price reductions, reduced margins and loss of market share, all of which would materially and adversely affect JNI's business, operating results and financial condition. JNI's FibreStar adapters compete with product offerings from other vendors. Ancor Communications and Genroco currently provide SBus-to-Fibre Channel adapters and Emulex, Interphase, Adaptec and QLogic provide, or have announced plans to introduce, PCI Bus-to-Fibre Channel adapters. Additionally, the computer networking industry has witnessed many acquisitions pursuant to which several large companies have emerged with comprehensive networking solutions. These acquisitions may permit JNI's competitors to devote significantly greater resources to the development and marketing of new competitive products and the marketing of existing products to their larger installed bases of customers. JNI expects that competition will increase, in particular as companies that are well established in the computer networking industry increase their focus on the emerging market for Fibre Channel adapters. There can be no assurance that JNI will be able to compete successfully in the future with existing or new competitors or that competitive pressures faced by JNI will not adversely affect its business, operating results and financial condition. MANUFACTURING JNI uses third-party manufacturers for assembly, test and quality control, thereby avoiding the significant capital investment required to establish and maintain manufacturing and assembly facilities and allowing JNI to concentrate its resources on product design, development, and marketing. JNI qualifies manufacturers using a selection program that assesses their capacity, quality standards and manufacturing processes. Certain key components used in JNI's products, such as ASICs and controller chips, are currently available only from a single source or a limited number of sources. In particular, JNI has designed into its adapters a Fibre Channel controller chip available only from Hewlett-Packard and a PCI interface chip available only from Applied Micro Circuits Corporation. Similar chips are available from other vendors, but incorporation of such chips into JNI's products would require alterations to hardware design and driver software to accommodate the characteristics of the new chips and, accordingly, would substantially delay product shipments. In addition, JNI incorporates integrated circuits from Texas Instruments and Advanced Micro Devices and oscillators from NEL Frequency Controls, Inc. into its products. Although the functions of these components can be duplicated using other components available on the market, the unavailability of any of these components could substantially delay product shipments. JNI has not entered into purchase agreements with the suppliers of these components, which subjects JNI to potential shortages of components and reduced control over delivery schedules and costs. Any such shortage, delivery problem or cost increase could cause JNI to seek other suppliers, and the process of identifying and qualifying such other suppliers could be lengthy. Future difficulty in obtaining any of these key components could result in delays or reductions in product shipments which, in turn, could have an adverse effect on JNI's business, operating results and financial condition and, accordingly, on the Company's business and future prospects. In the event that any significant manufacturers were to become unable or unwilling to continue to manufacture or test JNI's products in required volumes, JNI would have to identify and qualify acceptable replacements. This process of qualifying manufacturers and other suppliers could be lengthy, and no assurances can be given that any additional sources would become available to JNI on a timely basis. A delay or reduction in component shipments or a delay or increase in costs in the assembly and testing of products by manufacturers could adversely affect JNI's business, operating results and financial condition. PROPRIETARY RIGHTS AND LICENSES JNI's ability to compete successfully depends to a considerable extent on its proprietary firmware, software and circuit board design. The adapter cards will not function without JNI proprietary firmware programmed into certain parts. Each adapter card is furnished with a copy of compiled driver software that functions only with the JNI hardware design. Thus, reverse engineering of the hardware design does not result in a functioning product. While it is possible that the software could be modified for use with products of other companies, JNI believes that the amount of effort required to modify the source code provides an economic 38 40 barrier to such misuse. JNI also believes that because of the rapid pace of technological change in this industry, patent protection is less important than the knowledge, ability and experience of JNI's employees. To date, JNI has relied principally upon copyrights and trade secrets to protect its proprietary technology. JNI generally enters into confidentiality or license agreements with its employees, distributors, customers, and potential customers and limits access to and distribution of the source code to its software and other proprietary information. There can be no assurance that the steps taken by JNI in this regard will be adequate to prevent misappropriation of its technology or to provide adequate remedy in the event of a breach by others. There can be no assurance that any intellectual property rights held by JNI in the future will not be challenged, invalidated or circumvented, or that any rights granted thereunder will provide competitive advantages to JNI. The laws of some foreign countries may not permit the protection of JNI's proprietary rights to the same extent as do the laws of the United States. There has been substantial litigation regarding patent and other intellectual property rights involving technology companies. In the future, litigation may be necessary to protect trade secrets and other intellectual property rights owed by JNI, to defend JNI against claimed infringement of the rights of others and to determine the scope and validity of the proprietary rights of others. Any such litigation could be costly and a diversion of management's attention, which by themselves could have adverse effects on JNI's results of operations and financial condition. Adverse determinations in such litigation could result in the loss of JNI's proprietary rights, subject JNI to significant liabilities, require JNI to seek licenses from third parties or prevent JNI from manufacturing or selling its products, any of which could have an adverse effect on JNI's business, financial condition and results of operations. OTHER CORPORATE INFORMATION EMPLOYEES As of April 30, 1997, Jaymark had approximately 480 employees, of which 13 were employed by JNI. None of the Company's employees are represented by a labor union or are subject to a collective bargaining agreement. The Company has never experienced a work stoppage and believes its current relationship with its employees to be good. The success of the Company depends in large part upon its ability to recruit and retain exceptional employees, particularly highly-skilled product developers and system consultants. The Company will likely experience significant competition but has not yet experienced difficulties in recruiting qualified personnel. The Company is able to offer competitive salaries and benefits, and offers equity positions to key employees. FACILITIES The Company's principal business headquarters are located in San Diego, California in 104,000 square feet of office and laboratory space which is owned by the Company. As of April 30, 1997, the Company leased office space in 17 other locations, the largest of which include: McLean, Virginia (approximately 31,700 square feet); Albuquerque, New Mexico (approximately 97,200 square feet); Colorado Springs, Colorado (approximately 19,000 square feet); Reston, Virginia (approximately 11,800 square feet); and Huntsville, Alabama (approximately 7,200 square feet). JNI uses approximately 4,000 square feet of office and engineering laboratory space at the Company's corporate headquarters. The Company believes that these facilities are adequate to meet its requirements for the foreseeable future. GOVERNMENT REGULATIONS Because of its participation in government contracts, the Company is subject to audit from time to time for its compliance with government regulations by various agencies, including the Defense Contract Audit Agency, the Defense Investigative Service and the Office of Federal Control Compliance Programs. These and other governmental agencies may also, from time to time, conduct inquiries or investigations that may cover a broad range of Company activity. Responding to any such audits, inquiries or investigations may involve significant expense and divert management attention. In addition, an adverse finding in any such audit, 39 41 inquiry or investigation could involve penalties that may have an adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition or results of operations. The Company is also subject to a variety of local, state and federal governmental regulations relating to the storage, discharge, handling, emission, generation, manufacture and disposal of toxic or other hazardous substances used to manufacture the Company's products. The failure to comply with current or future regulations could result in the imposition of substantial fines on the Company, suspension of production, alteration of its manufacturing processes or cessation of operations. The Company believes that it operates its business in material compliance with applicable government regulations. COMPANY HISTORY The Company was initially incorporated in California on January 27, 1975, and reincorporated in Delaware in May 1997. The Company recently reorganized into a holding company structure and conducts its business through several wholly owned subsidiaries. Substantially all of the Company's business efforts are conducted through its Jaycor, Inc. and Jaycor Networks, Inc. subsidiaries. The Company's principal executive offices are located at 9775 Towne Centre Drive, San Diego, California 92121, and its telephone number at that location is (619) 535-3100. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS From time to time, the Company is or has been a party to disputes arising in the ordinary course of business, including disputes relating to employment matters, contractual relationships and intellectual property rights. Although there can be no assurance given with respect to the results of any of these matters, based on information currently available to management, the Company does not believe that the ultimate outcome of any of these disputes will have a material adverse effect on the Company. 40 42 MANAGEMENT DIRECTORS AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS OF THE COMPANY The executive officers and directors of the Company as of May 31, 1997 are as follows: NAME AGE POSITION - --------------------------------------- --- ---------------------------------------------------- Eric P.

Wenaas, the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer, served on the Compensation Committee of the Company's Board of Directors, but, as of February 25, 1997, Dr. Wenaas no longer serves on such committee. No member of the Board of Directors of the Company, its current Compensation Committee or the Compensation Committee that served during the fiscal year ended January 31, 1997 serves as a member of the board of directors or compensation committee of an entity that has one or more executive officers serving as a member of the Company's Board of Directors or Compensation Committee. COMPENSATION OF DIRECTORS Non-employee directors of the Company receive a fee of $3,750 on a quarterly basis for serving as a director and receive a fee of $1,000 for attendance at meetings of the Board of Directors and any committees thereof, as well as being reimbursed for out-of-pocket expenses incurred with respect to attendance at such meetings. From time to time, the Company has granted stock options to directors of the Company with exercise prices equal to the fair value of the Common Stock on the date of grant. Following the effectiveness of the Company's 1997 Outside Directors Stock Option Plan (the "Directors Plan"), non-employee directors of the Company will receive annual grants of options to purchase shares of Class A Common Stock under such plan. See "-- Benefit Plans." LIMITATION OF LIABILITY AND INDEMNIFICATION Pursuant to the provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law, the Company has adopted provisions in its Certificate of Incorporation which provide that directors of the Company shall not be personally liable for monetary damages to the Company or its stockholders for a breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability as a result of (i) a breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the Company or its stockholders, (ii) acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) an act related to the unlawful stock repurchase or payment of a dividend under Section 174 of Delaware General Corporation Law, and (iv) transactions from which the director derived an improper personal benefit. Such limitation of liability does not affect the availability of equitable remedies such as injunctive relief or rescission. The Company's Bylaws provide that the Company shall indemnify its directors and officers to the full extent permitted by Delaware law. The Bylaws also authorize the Company to indemnify its employees and agents to the full extent permitted by Delaware law, at the discretion of the Company's Board of Directors. The Company intends to enter into indemnification agreements with its directors and officers which may, in some cases, be broader than the specific indemnification provisions contained in the Delaware General Corporation Law. The indemnification agreements may require the Company, among other things, to indemnify such officers and directors against certain liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service as directors or officers (other than liabilities arising from willful misconduct of a culpable nature), to advance their expenses incurred as a result of any proceeding against them as to which they could be indemnified, and to obtain directors' and officers' insurance if available on reasonable terms. At present, there is no pending litigation or proceeding involving a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company where indemnification will be required or permitted. The Company is not aware of any threatened litigation or proceeding which may result in a claim for such indemnification. 43 45 EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION The following table summarizes the compensation paid by the Company during the fiscal year ended January 31, 1997 to the Company's Chief Executive Officer and each of the Company's four other most highly compensated executive officers (the "Named Executive Officers"): SUMMARY COMPENSATION TABLE LONG-TERM COMPENSATION AWARDS ANNUAL COMPENSATION ------------------ ----------------------- SECURITIES ALL OTHER NAME AND PRINCIPAL POSITION SALARY OTHER UNDERLYING OPTIONS COMPENSATION - ------------------------------------- -------- ---------- ------------------ ------------ Eric P.

For purposes of this calculation, a fair value of $6.48 per share was used, the fair value of the securities as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company as of January 31, 1997. No options to purchase shares of the Company's Common Stock were exercised by the Named Executive Officers during the fiscal year ended January 31, 1997. No compensation intended to serve as incentive for 45 47 performance to occur over a period longer than one fiscal year was paid pursuant to a long-term incentive plan during the last fiscal year to any of the Named Executive Officers. BENEFIT PLANS 1996 STOCK OPTION PLAN The Board of Directors has reserved 435,000 shares of Class B Common Stock and 500,000 shares of Class A Common Stock for issuance under the Company's 1996 Stock Option Plan (the "1996 Option Plan"). Originally adopted in December 1995 as the Company's 1996 Nonstatutory Stock Option Plan, the 1996 Option Plan was amended on February 25, 1997 to provide for the grant of "incentive stock options" intended to qualify for certain tax treatment and to provide for the grant of options to purchase shares of Class A Common Stock following the effective date of this offering. At April 30, 1997, 176,700 shares of Class B Common Stock were subject to outstanding options, and 258,300 shares of Class B Common Stock and 500,000 shares of Class A Common Stock remained reserved for issuance with respect to future grants under the 1996 Option Plan. The 1996 Option Plan, which is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, provides for the grant of non-qualified stock options and incentive stock options to employees and directors of the Company. Options granted under the 1996 Option Plan generally terminate after eight years and are subject to individual vesting schedules, but options previously granted under such plan generally vest in full one year from the date of grant. 1997 OUTSIDE DIRECTORS STOCK OPTION PLAN A total of 75,000 shares of Class A Common Stock has been reserved for issuance under the Directors Plan. Prior to the effective date of this offering, no options have been granted under the Directors Plan. The Directors Plan provides for automatic grants of non-qualified stock options to certain directors of the Company who are not employees of the Company ("Outside Directors"). Under the Directors Plan, each Outside Director elected or appointed as a director following the effective date of this offering will automatically be granted an option to purchase 10,000 shares of Class A Common Stock on the date of his or her initial election or appointment. In addition, each Outside Director will thereafter automatically be granted an option to purchase up to 3,000 shares of Class A Common Stock following each annual meeting of the Company's stockholders at which such Outside Director is re-elected. The exercise price of all such options will be equal to the fair market value of the Class A Common Stock on the date of grant. Initial options granted under the Directors Plan generally vest over a four-year period, and annual options generally vest in full four years from the date of grant. All such options must be exercised within ten years from the date of grant. 1997 EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN A total of 200,000 shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock has been reserved for issuance under the Company's 1997 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "Purchase Plan"), none of which have been issued. The Purchase Plan permits eligible employees of the Company to purchase shares of Class A Common Stock at a discount through payroll deductions during sequential 24-month offering periods. Each such offering period is divided into four consecutive six-month purchase periods. Unless otherwise provided by the Board of Directors prior to the commencement of an offering period, the price at which shares are purchased under the Purchase Plan for such offering period is equal to 85% of the lesser of the fair market value of the Class A Common Stock on the first day of such offering period or the last day of the purchase period of such offering period. The initial offering period will commence on the effective date of this offering. JNI 1997 STOCK OPTION PLAN JNI has adopted a subsidiary-level option plan known as the Jaycor Networks, Inc. 1997 Stock Option Plan (the "JNI Plan"), which provides for the grant to employees of JNI of incentive stock options and non-qualified stock options to purchase shares of common stock of JNI. For a nine-year period following the date of grant, such options are only exercisable in the event that JNI undergoes a "change in control" (generally defined as a sale of assets, merger or public offering of equity securities). Following such nine-year period, but 46 48 prior to the termination of such option (the options terminate ten years from the date of grant), the option may be exercised, but, in such event, JNI has a right to repurchase such shares at the greater of the exercise price or the fair market value of such shares. The exercise price of all such options will be equal to the fair market value of the common stock of JNI on the date of grant. In the event that an optionee under the JNI Plan exercises an option to purchase shares of the Company's Common Stock granted subsequent to the adoption of the JNI Plan to such optionee under one of the Company's stock option plans, all options granted under the JNI Plan terminate immediately. Similarly, in the event that an optionee under the JNI Plan exercises an option granted under the JNI Plan, all options granted subsequent to the adoption of the JNI Plan under the Company's stock option plans terminate immediately. Options granted under the JNI Plan generally vest over a four-year period, although such vesting is accelerated in the event of certain transactions resulting in a transfer of control of JNI. PRIOR STOCK OPTION PLANS The Board of Directors has reserved a total of 3,015,000 shares of Class B Common Stock for issuance under the Company's 1980 Stock Option Plan (the "1980 Option Plan"), 1990 Incentive Stock Option Plan (the "1990 Option Plan") and 1991 Stock Option Plan (the "1991 Option Plan" and, collectively with the 1980 Option Plan and the 1990 Option Plan, the "Prior Option Plans"). At April 30, 1997, 429,712 shares of Class B Common Stock had been issued upon exercise of options granted under the Prior Option Plans, an aggregate of 1,038,525 shares remained reserved for issuance upon the exercise of outstanding options and 195,240 shares were available for future grant. The Prior Option Plans are administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors and provide in certain cases for the grant of incentive stock options as well as non-qualified stock options. Options granted under the 1980 Option Plan and the 1990 Option Plan generally vest over a four-year period and generally terminate after ten years. The options granted under the 1991 Option Plan are immediately exercisable and terminate after ten years. In accordance with the terms of the Class B Common Stock, 20% of the aggregate number of shares of Class B Common Stock issuable upon exercise of options granted under the Prior Option Plans and the 1996 Option Plan convert into shares of Class A Common Stock upon the closing of this offering, and an additional 20% of such shares of Class B Common Stock underlying the options will convert into shares of Class A Common Stock upon each anniversary of such closing, whether or not the options have been exercised. All shares underlying outstanding options, as well as outstanding shares issued upon exercise of options, will have fully converted into shares of Class A Common Stock upon the fourth anniversary of the closing of this offering. Upon each exercise of such options, the shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock issuable will be in proportion to the Class A Common Stock and each series of Class B Common Stock that has not yet converted. See "Description of Capital Stock." 401(K) PLAN The Company adopted its 401(k) Plan effective January 1, 1987 and subsequently amended the 401(k) Plan on several occasions. Participation in the 401(k) Plan is restricted to employees of Jaycor and JNI who meet certain service requirements. Under the 401(k) Plan, employees may contribute, as pre-tax contributions, up to 15% of their compensation, subject to certain discrimination rules and the Internal Revenue Service annual limit on employee deductible contributions, which limit is currently $9,500 for 1997. No contributions to the 401(k) Plan are made by the Company. Participants are entitled to direct the investment of their accounts among various investment funds. The 401(k) Plan is intended to qualify under Sections 401(a) and 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code so that salary deferral contributions to the 401(k) Plan and income earned on such salary deferral contributions are not currently taxable to participants until distributed and contributions made by participants pursuant to the 401(k) Plan are non-taxable to participants. The Company's plan committee, which consists of P. Randy Johnson, the Company's Vice President, Finance and Chief Financial Officer, Dorothy K. Bidwell, the Company's Secretary, and Carol McHenry, Jaycor's Vice President, Corporate Resources (the "Plan Committee"), administers the 401(k) Plan and Fidelity Management Trust Company serves as trustee of the 401(k) Plan. 47 49 EMPLOYEE STOCK OWNERSHIP PLAN The Company originally adopted the ESOP effective May 5, 1983 and subsequently amended the ESOP on several occasions. Effective upon the closing of this offering, the ESOP will convert into a stock bonus plan which, although it retains substantially all of the features of an employee stock ownership plan, does not require the ESOP to own publicly traded stock of the Company. Participation in the ESOP is limited to employees of Jaycor who meet certain service requirements. All contributions to the ESOP are made by the Company at the discretion of the Board of Directors, and annual contributions are not required. Employer contributions are allocated to the accounts of eligible participants in accordance with relative compensation. The interests of participants in the ESOP generally vest upon the completion of five years of service. Substantially all contributions to the ESOP are invested in Class B Common Stock of the Company. Shares of Common Stock held by the ESOP are generally distributed to participants either (i) the end of the plan year following the year of retirement, or (ii) the end of the fifth plan year following the year of termination. Prior to the closing of this offering, the Company may be required under certain circumstances to repurchase shares of Common Stock distributed by the ESOP to retired and terminated participants. Upon the closing of this offering, the Company may, at its option, satisfy obligations for distributions of shares with Class A Common Stock. To the extent that the ESOP does not hold sufficient shares of Class A Common Stock to meet its obligations to distribute shares to participants following retirement or termination, the Company has agreed to exchange shares of Class A Common Stock for shares of Class B Common Stock held by the ESOP to distribute to such participants. The ESOP is intended to qualify under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code so that contributions to the ESOP and income earned on the contributions are not currently taxable to participants until distributed and contributions to the plan are currently deductible by the Company. The ESOP is administered by the Plan Committee. MONEY PURCHASE PENSION PLAN The Company adopted the Pension Plan effective July 1, 1981 and subsequently amended the Pension Plan on several occasions. Participation in the Pension Plan is limited to employees of Jaycor who meet certain service requirements. All contributions to the Pension Plan are made by the Company. In order to receive an allocation of the Company's contribution to the Pension Plan, an eligible employee must be employed on the last day of the calendar year and have completed at least 1,000 hours of service during such year, except during the first year of participation when participants automatically receive a contribution. Employer contributions are allocated to eligible participants in accordance with a formula that takes into account relative compensation of all eligible participants and social security contributions by the Company. The amounts allocated to the accounts of participants under the Pension Plan vest upon completion of five years of service with the Company. The Pension Plan is intended to qualify under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code so that contributions to the Pension Plan and income earned on such contributions are not currently taxable to participants until distributed and contributions to the Pension Plan are currently deductible by the Company. The Plan Committee administers the Pension Plan and Fidelity Management Trust Company serves as trustee of the Pension Plan. 48 50 CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS In consideration for relinquishing stock options previously granted to Dr. Wenaas, Jaymark has entered into an agreement, as amended, with Dr. Wenaas whereby the Company will credit a total of $160,000 in deferred compensation for the benefit of Dr. Wenaas in four equal annual installments commencing January 15, 1998. Each installment is subject to Dr. Wenaas' employment by the Company on such date. Interest accrues on the amount credited at the prime rate published by Wells Fargo Bank. In the event of Dr. Wenaas' death, disability or termination other than for cause, Dr. Wenaas or his heirs will receive the full amount. Effective January 31, 1997, the Company entered into a Retirement Agreement (the "Retirement Agreement") with Robert P. Sullivan, who served as a director of the Company and as Executive Vice President of the Company until such date. The Retirement Agreement provides that Dr. Sullivan will provide services to the Company at a rate of $100 per hour, as directed from time to time by the President or Board of Directors of the Company. Dr. Sullivan agreed to provide such services until the earlier to occur of (i) one year after the closing of this offering, or (ii) June 30, 1998. Pursuant to the Retirement Agreement, on January 31, 1997, the Company repurchased 23,392 shares of Class B Common Stock from Dr. Sullivan at a price of $6.48 per share. In addition, the Company agreed to repurchase 120,000 shares of Class B Common Stock from Dr. Sullivan at a price per share of $8.33 per share, which price is subject to adjustment if the closing of this offering does not occur during 1997. The Company is obligated to repurchase such shares within 30 days of the closing of this offering, but such obligation is postponed as specified in the Retirement Agreement in the event that such repurchase would impair the Company's ability to qualify for listing of its Class A Common Stock on the Nasdaq National Market. Concurrent with Dr. Sullivan's resignation as an officer and director of the Company, the Company paid $38,322 owed to Dr. Sullivan for accrued vacation pay, paid $155,255 to Dr. Sullivan pursuant to the terms of a Deferred Compensation Agreement between the Company and Dr. Sullivan, dated June 14, 1991, and agreed to transfer an automobile valued at $16,000 to Dr. Sullivan. The spouses of Dr. Wenaas and Dr. Stuhmiller are employed by Jaycor on terms that the Company believes are customary for individuals with similar backgrounds and responsibilities. The Company offers deferred compensation arrangements to certain of its employees, including its officers. The agreements allow the employees to defer up to 100% of their salaries, net of certain payroll withholdings, with interest accruing thereon at specified rates, currently ranging from 8% to 9%. Distributions commence upon retirement or termination and continue for a period as prescribed in the respective agreements. The Company's Delaware Certificate of Incorporation provides for indemnification of the Company's officers and directors in certain circumstances. The Company intends to enter into Indemnification Agreements with each of its directors and executive officers. See "Management -- Limitation of Liability and Indemnification Matters." 49 51 PRINCIPAL STOCKHOLDERS The following table sets forth certain information regarding beneficial ownership of the Company's Common Stock as of May 31, 1997, and as adjusted to reflect the sale of the shares of Common Stock offered hereby, by: (i) each of the Named Executive Officers, (ii) each of the Company's directors, (iii) all directors and executive officers of the Company as a group, and (iv) each other person known by the Company to own beneficially more than 5% of the Company's Common Stock.

The Class B Common Stock consists of five series, and each such series consists of 800,000 shares. Other than the conversion of all shares of Class B Common Stock into shares of Class A Common Stock over a four-year period commencing upon the closing of this offering, the rights, preferences and privileges of each class of Common Stock are identical in all respects. The following summary of certain provisions of the Common Stock of the Company does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the Certificate of Incorporation of the Company and the Bylaws of the Company that are included as exhibits to the Registration Statement of which this Prospectus forms a part, as well as the provisions of applicable law. COMMON STOCK As of April 30, 1997, there were no shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding and 1,741,640 shares of Class B Common Stock outstanding, which shares were held of record by approximately 62 stockholders, excluding 120,000 shares of Class B Common Stock that the Company has agreed to repurchase, subject to certain conditions. Upon the closing of this offering, 20% of the outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock will automatically convert into shares of Class A Common Stock. The holders of Common Stock are entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters submitted to a vote of the holders of Common Stock and are entitled to receive ratably such dividends as may be declared by the Board of Directors out of funds legally available therefor. In the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the holders of Common Stock are entitled to share ratably in all assets remaining after payment of liabilities. Holders of Common Stock have no preemptive or subscription rights, and there are no redemption or conversion rights with respect to such shares. All outstanding shares of Common Stock are fully paid and non-assessable. The Class B Common Stock consists of five series, which are designated and known as Series B-1 Common Stock, Series B-2 Common Stock, Series B-3 Common Stock, Series B-4 Common Stock and Series B-5 Common Stock. The outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock are comprised of approximately 20% of each such series. To the extent that the shares of Class B Common Stock held by a stockholder do not divide evenly among the series of Class B Common Stock, such stockholder may hold from one to four additional shares of Series B-5 Common Stock. Accordingly, 348,416 shares of Series B-5 Common Stock were outstanding as of April 30, 1997, as opposed to 348,306 shares of each of the other series of Class B Common Stock. Upon the closing of this offering, all outstanding shares of Series B-1 Common Stock will automatically convert into shares of Class A Common Stock. Upon the first anniversary of the closing of this offering, all outstanding shares of Series B-2 Common Stock will automatically convert into shares of Class A Common Stock. Upon the second anniversary of the closing of this offering, all outstanding shares of Series B-3 Common Stock will automatically convert into shares of Class A Common Stock. Upon the third anniversary of the closing of this offering, all outstanding shares of Series B-4 Common Stock will automatically convert into shares of Class A Common Stock. Upon the fourth anniversary of the closing of this offering, all outstanding shares of Series B-5 Common Stock will automatically convert into shares of Class A Common Stock. Accordingly, on the fourth anniversary of the closing of this offering, all outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock will have converted into shares of Class A Common Stock. DELAWARE LAW AND CERTAIN CHARTER PROVISIONS Following its proposed reincorporation in Delaware, the Company will be a Delaware corporation and will be subject to Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "Delaware Law"), an anti-takeover law. In general, Section 203 of the Delaware Law prevents an "interested stockholder" (defined generally as a person owning 15% or more of a corporation's outstanding voting stock) from engaging in a "business combination" (as defined therein) with a Delaware corporation for three years following the date such person became an interested stockholder, subject to certain exceptions, such as the approval of the Board of Directors and of the holders of at least two-thirds of the outstanding shares of voting stock not owned by such interested stockholder. The existence of such provision would be expected to have an anti-takeover effect, including with 52 54 respect to attempts that might result in a premium over the market price for the shares of Common Stock held by the stockholders. The Company's Certificate of Incorporation does not provide for cumulative voting in the election of directors and eliminates the ability of the Company's stockholders to take action by written consent. These provisions may have the effect of deferring hostile takeovers or delaying changes in control or management of the Company. The amendment of any of these provisions would require approval by holders of at least two-thirds or more of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. TRANSFER AGENT AND REGISTRAR The Transfer Agent and Registrar for the Common Stock is U.S. Stock Transfer Corporation. Its telephone number in Glendale, California is (818) 502-1404. SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE Prior to this offering, there has not been any public market for the Class A Common Stock and there can be no assurance that a significant public market for the Class A Common Stock will be developed or sustained after this offering. Sales of substantial amounts of Class A Common Stock in the public market after this offering, or the possibility of such sales occurring, could adversely affect prevailing market prices of the Class A Common Stock or the future ability of the Company to raise capital through an offering of equity securities. After this offering, the Company will have outstanding 1,648,306 shares of Class A Common Stock and 1,393,334 shares of Class B Common Stock, after giving effect to the Company's repurchase, subject to certain conditions, of 120,000 shares of Common Stock. Of such shares, the 1,300,000 shares of Class A Common Stock offered hereby will be freely tradeable in the public market without restriction under the Securities Act, unless such shares are held by "affiliates" of the Company, as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act. The remaining 348,306 shares of Class A Common Stock and the 1,393,334 shares of Class B Common Stock outstanding upon completion of this offering will be "restricted securities," as defined in Rule 144 (the "Restricted Shares"). The Restricted Shares were issued and sold by the Company in private transactions in reliance upon exemptions from registration under the Securities Act. Restricted Shares may be sold in the public market only if they are registered or if they qualify for an exemption from registration under Rules 144 or 701 under the Securities Act, which are summarized below. All shares of the Company's Class B Common Stock will convert into shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock over a four-year period commencing upon the closing of this offering at the rate of approximately 348,306 shares on the closing of this offering and on each of the first three anniversaries of such closing, and 348,416 shares on the fourth anniversary of such closing. Subject to the lock-up agreements discussed below, substantially all of the shares of Class A Common Stock issued upon conversion of the Class B Common Stock will generally be freely tradeable, subject in certain instances to the volume limitations imposed by Rule 144. Pursuant to certain "lock-up" agreements, all of the executive officers and directors of the Company, as well as certain officers of the Company's subsidiaries and certain spouses of the executive officers of the Company, who, following the closing of this offering, will collectively hold an aggregate of 61,332 shares of Class A Common Stock and 245,333 shares of Class B Common Stock, have agreed, subject to certain limited exceptions, not to offer, sell, contract to sell, grant any option to purchase or otherwise dispose of any such shares for a period of one year from the date of this Prospectus. Certain additional stockholders of the Company, including the ESOP, who, following the closing of this offering, will collectively hold an aggregate of 237,338 shares of Class A Common Stock and 949,440 shares of Class B Common Stock, have entered into similar lock-up agreements covering a period of 180 days following the date of this Prospectus. Such agreements provide that Brean Murray & Co., Inc. may, in its sole discretion and at any time without notice, release all or a portion of the shares subject to these lock-up agreements. The Company has also entered into 53 55 an agreement with Brean Murray & Co., Inc. that it will not offer, sell or otherwise dispose of shares of Common Stock for a period of 180 days from the date of this Prospectus, other than pursuant to its existing stock option and stock purchase plans. Following the expiration of such lock-up periods, certain shares issued upon exercise of options granted by the Company prior to the date of this Prospectus will also be available for sale in the public market pursuant to Rule 701 under the Securities Act as such shares convert into shares of Class A Common Stock. Rule 701 permits resales of such shares in reliance upon Rule 144 but without compliance with certain restrictions, including the holding period requirement, imposed under Rule 144. In general, under Rule 144, as amended, beginning 90 days after the date of this Prospectus, a person (or persons whose shares of the Company are aggregated) who has beneficially owned Restricted Shares for at least one year (including the holding period of any prior owner who is not an affiliate of the Company) would be entitled to sell within any three-month period a number of shares that does not exceed the greater of (i) one percent of the then outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock (approximately 16,483 shares following this offering), or (ii) the average weekly trading volume of the Class A Common Stock during the four calendar weeks preceding the filing of a Form 144 with respect to such sale. Sales under Rule 144 are also subject to certain manner of sale and notice requirements and to the availability of current public information about the Company. Under Rule 144(k), a person who is not deemed to have been an affiliate of the Company at any time during the 90 days preceding a sale and who has beneficially owned the shares proposed to be sold for at least two years (including the holding period of any prior owner who is not an affiliate of the Company) is entitled to sell such shares without complying with the manner of sale, public information, volume limitation or notice provisions of Rule 144. The ESOP holds 487,241 of the Restricted Shares, which shares will only be eligible for resale in the public market following distribution to ESOP participants. In certain circumstances, the Company is obligated to exchange shares of Class A Common Stock for shares of Class B Common Stock held by the ESOP. See "Management -- Benefit Plans." As of April 30, 1997, options to purchase 1,215,225 shares of Class B Common Stock were outstanding under the Company's stock option plans, 1,050,450 of which were exercisable as of such date and approximately 1,059,900 of which are subject to lock-up agreements. The shares of Class B Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such options convert into shares of Class A Common Stock over a four-year period commencing on the closing of this offering. The Company intends to file after the effective date of this offering Registration Statements on Form S-8 to register an aggregate of 2,443,765 shares of Class A Common Stock reserved for issuance under its stock option and stock purchase plans or upon conversion of shares of Class B Common Stock issued under such plans. Such Registration Statements will become effective automatically upon filing. Shares of Class A Common Stock issued under such plans or issued upon conversion of shares of Class B Common Stock issued under such plans, after the filing of such Registration Statements on Form S-8, may be sold in the open market, subject, in the case of certain holders, to the Rule 144 limitations applicable to affiliates, the above-referenced lock-up agreements and vesting restrictions imposed by the Company. See "Management -- Benefit Plans." 54 56 UNDERWRITING Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in an underwriting agreement (the "Underwriting Agreement"), the Company has agreed to sell to each of the underwriters named below (the "Underwriters"), for which Brean Murray & Co., Inc. is acting as representative (the "Representative"), and each of the Underwriters severally has agreed to purchase from the Company the aggregate number of shares of Class A Common Stock set forth opposite its name below. UNDERWRITERS NUMBER OF SHARES --------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------- Brean Murray & Co., Inc. ............................................ --------- Total........................................................... 1,300,000 ========= Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Underwriting Agreement, the Company is obligated to sell, and the Underwriters are obligated to purchase, all of the shares of Class A Common Stock set forth in the above table if any of the shares of Class A Common Stock are purchased. The Underwriters propose to offer the shares of Class A Common Stock to the public at the initial public offering price set forth on the cover page of this Prospectus, and to selected dealers at such public offering price less a concession not to exceed $ per share. The Underwriters or such dealers may reallow a commission to certain other dealers not to exceed $ per share. After the offering to the public, the offering price, the concessions to selected dealers and the reallowance to other dealers may be changed by the Representative. The Company has granted to the Underwriters an option, exercisable for 30 days from the date of this Prospectus, to purchase up to 195,000 additional shares of Class A Common Stock to cover over-allotments, if any, at the initial public offering price, less underwriting discounts and commissions, as set forth on the cover page of this Prospectus. If the Underwriters exercise this option, then each of the Underwriters will have a firm commitment, subject to certain conditions, to purchase a number of option shares proportionate to such Underwriters' initial commitment as indicated in the table above. The Underwriters may exercise such option only to cover over-allotments made in connection with the sale of the shares of Class A Common Stock offered hereby. Prior to this offering, there has been no previous public market for the Class A Common Stock of the Company. The public offering price for the Class A Common Stock has been determined by negotiations between the Company and the Underwriters. The factors considered in determining the initial public offering price included an assessment of the history and the prospects for the industry in which the Company operates, the ability of the Company's management, the past and present operations of the Company, the historical results of operations of the Company, the prospects for future earnings of the Company, the general conditions of the securities markets at the time of the offering, and the prices of similar securities of comparable companies. In connection with the offering made hereby, the Company has agreed to sell to the Representative, for nominal consideration, the Representative's Warrants to purchase 130,000 shares of Class A Common Stock from the Company (10% of the number of shares issued in this offering). The Representative's Warrants are exercisable, in whole or in part, at an exercise price equal to 130% of the public offering price set forth on the cover page of this Prospectus at any time during the four-year period commencing one year after the effective date of the Registration Statement of which this Prospectus is a part. The warrant agreement pursuant to which the Warrants will be issued will contain provisions providing for adjustment of the exercise price and the number and type of securities issuable upon exercise of the Representative's Warrants should any one or more 55 57 of certain specified events occur. The Representative's Warrants grant to the holders thereof certain rights of registration for the securities issuable upon exercise of the Representative's Warrants. The executive officers and directors of the Company, as well as certain officers of the Company's subsidiaries and certain spouses of the executive officers of the Company, have agreed not to sell, offer to sell, issue, distribute or otherwise dispose of any shares of Common Stock of the Company for a period of one year from the date of this Prospectus, without the prior written consent of the Representative. In addition, certain additional stockholders and optionholders of the Company have entered into similar agreements covering a period of 180 days following the date of this Prospectus. These lock-up agreements permit a stockholder to transfer shares of Common Stock (i) to members of his or her immediate family or to a trust for their benefit, provided that such persons or trust agree to be similarly bound, or (ii) that are purchased in the public market in or subsequent to this offering. The Company has agreed to reimburse the Underwriters for up to $175,000 of the Underwriters' out-of-pocket expenses (including fees of their counsel) in connection with the sale of the Class A Common Stock offered hereby. The Company has also agreed to indemnify the Underwriters or contribute to losses arising out of certain liabilities that may be incurred in connection with this offering, including liabilities under the Securities Act. The Representative, on behalf of the Underwriters, may engage in over-allotment, stabilizing transactions, syndicate covering transactions and penalty bids in accordance with Regulation M under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). Over-allotment involves syndicate sales in excess of the offering size, which creates a syndicate short position. Stabilizing transactions permit bids to purchase the underlying security so long as the stabilizing bids do not exceed a specific maximum. Syndicate covering transactions involve purchases of the Class A Common Stock in the open market after the distribution has been completed in order to cover syndicate short positions. Penalty bids permit the Representative to reclaim a selling concession from a syndicate member when the securities originally sold by such syndicate member are purchased in a syndicate covering transaction to cover syndicate short positions. Such stabilizing transactions, syndicate covering transactions and penalty bids may cause the price of the Class A Common Stock to be higher than it would otherwise be in the absence of such transactions. These transactions may be effected on the Nasdaq National Market or otherwise and, if commenced, may be discontinued at any time. LEGAL MATTERS The validity of the Class A Common Stock offered hereby will be passed upon for the Company by Gray Cary Ware & Freidenrich, A Professional Corporation, San Diego, California. Certain legal matters relating to the offering will be passed upon for the Underwriters by Stroock & Stroock & Lavan LLP, Los Angeles, California.

F-6 68 JAYMARK, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE AND PER SHARE DATA) NOTE 1 -- DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The Company Jaymark, Inc., its predecessors, and its subsidiaries (the "Company"), provide advanced technology products and services to government and commercial customers with core competencies in the areas of electronic and electro-optic system design, communications engineering, electromagnetic effects, nuclear and high-explosive weapon effects, and high-speed computer networking products. Reincorporation On May 29, 1997 the Company merged with and into a newly incorporated Delaware corporation, Jaymark, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary, which is the surviving corporation. In conjunction with the merger, each outstanding share of the Company's Common Stock was exchanged for three-fifths of one share of the Class B Common Stock of Jaymark, Inc. In addition, each outstanding option to purchase a share of the Company's Common Stock was exchanged for an option to purchase three-fifths of one share of the Class B Common Stock of Jaymark, Inc., at five-thirds of its original exercise price. All other terms of the Company's outstanding options will remain the same. All references to share and per share amounts and other data in these financial statements have been retroactively restated to reflect the reincorporation. Consolidation The consolidated financial statements present the accounts of Jaymark, Inc., its predecessors, and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated. Pro forma financial data (unaudited) The unaudited pro forma information presented in the accompanying balance sheet as of April 30, 1997 reflects the reclassification to stockholders' equity (deficit) of the mandatory redeemable ESOP shares based on the ability of the Company, following its proposed initial public offering (the "Offering") to satisfy ESOP distribution obligations with readily tradeable shares of Class A Common Stock (Note 6). Acquisitions The Company recorded at fair value certain immaterial assets purchased with cash and issuances of Class B Common Stock during fiscal years 1997 and 1996. Fiscal Year The Company operates and reports its results of operations on the basis of 52 or 53 week periods ending on the Friday closest to January 31. Fiscal years 1997, 1996, and 1995 ended on January 31, 1997, February 2, 1996, and February 3, 1995, and consisted of 52, 52, and 53 weeks, respectively. For presentation purposes, the Company has indicated its fiscal year as ending on January 31. Interim Periods The consolidated balance sheet as of May 2, 1997, the consolidated statements of income and of cash flows for the three months ended May 2, 1997 and May 3, 1996, and the consolidated statement of stockholders' equity for the three months ended May 2, 1997 are unaudited, but, in the opinion of management of the Company, include all adjustments necessary to present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position as of May 2, 1997 and the results of operations and cash flows for the Company for the three months ended May 2, 1997 and May 3, 1996. All data as of such date and for such periods included herein is unaudited. Operating results for the three months ended May 2, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the F-7 69 JAYMARK, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE AND PER SHARE DATA) results that may be expected for the year ending January 31, 1998. For presentation purposes, the Company has indicated its fiscal first quarter as ending on April 30. Revenue Recognition The Company's revenues are derived primarily from the performance of services for various agencies of the U.S. government, through prime government contracts or through subcontracts issued by U.S. government prime contractors. Contracts generally are in the form of (i) reimbursement of costs under cost-plus fixed fee, (ii) time and materials, or (iii) fixed price. Revenues are generally recognized as costs are incurred and include a portion of the total estimated earnings to be realized based upon the relationship between contract costs incurred to date and total estimated contract costs at completion. Provision is made for any expected losses on contracts by a charge to income during the period in which the losses are first identified. Inventories Inventories, consisting primarily of raw materials and spare parts, are stated at the lower of average cost (determined on a first-in, first-out basis) or market. Property and Equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost and are depreciated over their estimated useful lives, primarily using the straight-line method. Useful lives range from three to five years for equipment, thirty-one to forty years for buildings and the shorter of the useful lives or the terms of the leases (three to nine years) for leased assets and leasehold improvements. Upon sale or disposal, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is included in cost of revenues. Maintenance and repair costs are charged to expense as incurred. Research and Development Costs Company-sponsored research and development costs to develop new concepts and proprietary systems and products are charged to operations as incurred. Income Taxes Current income tax expense or benefit represents the amount of income taxes expected to be payable or refundable for the current year. A deferred income tax liability or asset is established for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and income tax bases of assets and liabilities. Deferred income tax expense or benefit represents the net change during the year in the deferred income tax liabilities or assets. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be "more likely than not" realized in future tax returns. Use of 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 assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Fair Value of Financial Instruments The fair value of the Company's long-term debt, capital lease, and deferred compensation obligations approximate fair value as the nominal rates of interest for these instruments approximate market rates of interest currently available to the Company for similar instruments. The carrying amounts of the Company's F-8 70 JAYMARK, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE AND PER SHARE DATA) accrued and other liabilities and its bank line of credit approximate their fair values due to their short-term maturities. Concentrations of Credit Risk Concentrations of credit risk with respect to receivables are limited because the Company's primary customers are various agencies of the U.S. government as well as commercial customers engaged in work for the U.S. government. As of January 31, 1997 and 1996, there were no significant concentrations of receivables with these commercial customers, and there were outstanding receivables from the U.S. government in the amounts of $4,641 and $5,164, respectively. During 1997, 1996, and 1995, Department of Defense prime contracts and subcontracts accounted for approximately 88%, 89%, and 91%, respectively, of the Company's revenues. Total revenues attributed to U.S. government prime contracts and subcontracts approximated 93%, 97%, and 98% during 1997, 1996, and 1995, respectively. Long-Lived Assets The Company investigates potential impairments of long-lived assets, identifiable intangibles, and any associated goodwill when events or changes in circumstances indicate that an asset's carrying value may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized when the sum of the expected future undiscounted net cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset. No such losses have been identified by the Company. Stock-Based Compensation The Company measures compensation costs related to stock option plans using the intrinsic value method and provides pro forma disclosures of net income and net earnings per share as if the fair value based method had been applied in measuring compensation costs (Note 6). Net Earnings Per Share Net earnings per share is computed based on the weighted average number of common shares and common stock equivalents, using the treasury stock method, modified if necessary, outstanding during the respective periods. All stock issued and stock options granted since March 7, 1996 have been included as outstanding for all periods using the treasury stock method and an assumed public offering price of $13.00 per share. Common stock equivalents include the dilutive effect of stock options. Supplemental net earnings per share, retroactively reflecting the impact of the repayment of the bank line of credit contemplated in the Offering, is not presented as the impact is antidilutive. In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 128, "Earnings per Share." SFAS No. 128 will be adopted by the Company as required in the fourth quarter of fiscal 1998. Upon adoption of SFAS No. 128, the Company will present basic earnings per share and diluted earnings per share. Basic earnings per share will be computed based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share will be computed based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period increased by the dilutive effect of potential common stock. Management is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of SFAS No. 128 will have on the Company's financial statements. Reclassifications Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current period presentation. F-9 71 JAYMARK, INC.

Contract revenues have been recorded in amounts which are expected to be realized upon final audit. Unbilled receivables are stated at their estimated realizable value and consist primarily of amounts billed subsequent to the balance sheet date or which are billable upon the occurrence of specified events, as well as contract retentions and unreimbursed costs subject to contract modification. Contract retentions of $1,020 at January 31, 1997 are collectible upon contract completion, final customer approval and final indirect rate settlement, and the majority thereof is expected to be collected within one year. Unbilled contract receivables at January 31, 1997 included $490 related to costs incurred on projects in advance of receiving formal funding authorization from customers.

Sales between segments are not material. Identifiable assets of the respective industry segments consist principally of contract receivables, inventories, prepaid expenses, other current assets, and property and equipment. Other assets are principally land, building, and deferred income taxes. NOTE 4 -- BANK LINE OF CREDIT The Company has a bank line of credit which is renegotiated on an annual basis and expires on October 1, 1997. Under terms of the credit agreement, the Company may borrow up to $6,000, limited to specified percentages of eligible accounts receivable, at 7/8% over the bank's prime rate. The interest rate at January 31, 1997 was 9.125%, and as of such date the Company had $1,328 of additional funds available under the bank line of credit. In addition, the Company pays a quarterly commitment fee of 5/8% per annum on the F-12 74 JAYMARK, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE AND PER SHARE DATA) average daily unused amount of the line of credit. Borrowings under the line of credit agreement are secured by the Company's accounts receivable, inventories, and unencumbered property and equipment. The credit arrangement surrounding the line of credit require the Company to maintain certain financial ratios and among other things, limits the amount of dividends that the Company may pay and prohibits the Company from further pledging any of its assets unless such pledge is in conjunction with obtaining term financing for property and equipment acquired during the previous 12 months. At January 31, 1997, the Company was in compliance with all covenants.

The term loans are secured by the Company's property and equipment and are payable in monthly principal and interest installments over a three year term with fixed interest rates ranging from 6.89% to 9.45%.

(44) (44) ---- ------- $ 505 $14,677 ==== ======= NOTE 6 -- BENEFIT PLANS The Company has a Money Purchase Pension Plan (the "Pension Plan"), which covers substantially all employees of Jaycor, Inc. ("Jaycor"). Employees vest 100% on the fifth anniversary of their hire date. Annual contributions, as defined in the Pension Plan, are determined by specified percentages of each employee's annual earnings. During fiscal years 1997, 1996, and 1995, the charges to operations under this plan were $1,064, $1,231, and $1,115, respectively. F-13 75 JAYMARK, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE AND PER SHARE DATA) The Company has an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (the "ESOP"), which covers substantially all employees of Jaycor. At January 31, 1997 and 1996, all shares held by the ESOP were Class B Common Stock and such shares were allocated to participants. Plan contributions are discretionary. During fiscal years 1997, 1996, and 1995, related compensation charges to operations were $203, $200, and $350, respectively. The Company has fully funded the contributions with $203, $370, and $270 being contributed during fiscal years 1997, 1996, and 1995, respectively. Distribution of ESOP shares to a retiring or terminated participant occurs within five years from separation. Within 15 months from distribution, the participant may exercise a put option, or the ESOP may exercise a call option, at fair value, for any portion of the shares distributed. Accordingly, the shares of Class B Common Stock held by the ESOP are reflected at their aggregate fair values, as determined by an annual independent appraisal. At January 31, 1997 and 1996, ESOP shares outstanding with aggregate fair values of $3,159 and $2,579, respectively, are separately classified in the consolidated balance sheet. The cumulative adjustment for mandatorily redeemable shares held by the ESOP at each fiscal year end represents the difference between the aggregate historical issuance price of such shares and their aggregate fair value at year end. Following the closing of the Offering, the Company may, at its option, satisfy obligations for distributions of shares with Class A Common Stock, which will be readily tradeable. To the extent that the ESOP does not hold a sufficient number of shares of Class A Common Stock to meet its obligations to distribute shares to participants following retirement or termination (Note 9), the Company has agreed to exchange shares of Class A Common Stock for shares of Class B Common Stock held by the ESOP to distribute to such participants. Consequently, these shares will be reported at their aggregate historical issuance price as a component of stockholders' equity subsequent to the Offering. The Company offers deferred compensation arrangements to certain of its employees. The agreements allow the employees to defer up to 100% of their salaries, net of certain payroll withholdings, with interest accruing thereon at specified rates, currently ranging from 8% to 9%. Distributions commence upon retirement or termination and continue for a period as prescribed in the respective agreements. The Company has an Incentive Stock Option Plan (the "1990 Option Plan"), which provides for the issuance of up to 900,000 shares of the Company's Class B Common Stock to employees of the Company. Options are granted at prices not less than 100% of its fair value, as determined by the Company's Board of Directors, or 110% for persons controlling more than 10% of the voting rights, at the date of grant. Stock options are generally exercisable in four equal installments commencing one year after the date of grant and expire in ten years. At January 31, 1997, options for 142,440 shares were available for future grant. The Company has a Non-qualified Stock Option Plan (the "1991 Option Plan"), which provides for the issuance of up to 315,000 shares of the Company's Class B Common Stock to employees of the Company and certain directors of the Company who are not employees of the Company ("Outside Directors"). Options are granted at prices not less than 100% of its fair value, as determined by the Company's Board of Directors, at the date of grant. Options are vested at the date of grant and expire in ten years. At January 31, 1997, there were no options available for future grant. During fiscal year 1996, the Company adopted a Non-qualified Stock Option Plan (the "1996 Option Plan"), which provides for the issuance of up to 435,000 shares of the Company's Class B Common Stock. During February 1997, the Company amended the 1996 Option Plan to provide for the grant of incentive stock options and the issuance of up to 500,000 shares of Class A Common Stock following the effective date of the Offering. Employees and Outside Directors of the Company are eligible to receive options. Options are granted at prices determined by the Board of Directors. The expiration date and the vesting schedule are also determined by the Board of Directors. At January 31, 1997, options for 248,700 Class B shares were available for future grant. F-14 76 JAYMARK, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE AND PER SHARE DATA) During February 1997, the Company adopted the 1997 Outside Directors Stock Option Plan (the "Directors Plan"), which provides for the issuance of up to 75,000 shares of Class A Common Stock following the effective date of the Offering. No options have been granted under the Directors Plan. The Directors Plan provides for automatic grants of non-qualified stock options to Outside Directors. Under the Directors Plan, each Outside Director elected or appointed as a director following the effective date of this Offering will automatically be granted an option to purchase 10,000 shares of Class A Common Stock on the date of his or her initial election or appointment. In addition, each Outside Director will thereafter automatically be granted an option to purchase up to 3,000 shares of Class A Common Stock following each annual meeting of the Company's stockholders at which such Outside Director is re-elected. The exercise price of all such options will be equal to the fair market value of the Class A Common Stock on the date of grant. Initial options granted under the Directors Plan will generally vest over a four-year period, and annual options will generally vest in full four years from the date of grant. All such options must be exercised within ten years from their date of grant. During February 1997, the Company adopted the 1997 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "Purchase Plan") which provides for the issuance of up to 200,000 shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock following the effective date of the Offering. The Purchase Plan permits eligible employees of the Company to purchase shares of Class A Common Stock at a fifteen percent (15%) discount through payroll deductions at specified purchase dates during sequential 24-month offering periods. Each such offering period is divided into four consecutive six-month purchase periods. The price at which shares are purchased under the Purchase Plan for such offering period is equal to 85% of the lesser of the fair market value of the Class A Common Stock on the first day of such offering period or the last day of the applicable purchase period within such offering period. The initial offering period will commence on the effective date of the Offering. During February 1997, the Company adopted the JNI 1997 Stock Option Plan (the "JNI Plan") which provides for the issuance of up to 900,000 shares of JNI common stock. No options have been granted under the JNI Plan. The JNI Plan provides for the issuance to employees of JNI of incentive stock options and non-qualified stock options to purchase shares of JNI's common stock. For a nine-year period following the date of grant, such options are only exercisable in the event that JNI undergoes a change in control, as defined (generally, a sale of assets, merger, or public offering of equity securities). Following such nine-year period, but prior to the termination of such options, ten years from the date of grant, the options may be exercised, but, in such event, JNI has a right to repurchase such shares at the greater of the exercise price or the fair market value of such shares. The exercise price of all such options will be equal to the fair market value of the JNI common stock on the date of grant. In the event that an optionee under the JNI Plan exercises an option to purchase shares of the Company's Common Stock granted subsequent to the adoption of the JNI Plan to such optionee under the Company's 1990 Option Plan or 1996 Option Plan, all options granted under the JNI Plan terminate immediately. Similarly, in the event that an optionee under the JNI Plan exercises an option granted under the JNI Plan, all options granted subsequent to the adoption of the JNI Plan under the Company's stock option plans terminate immediately. Options granted under the JNI Plan generally vest over a four-year period, although such vesting is accelerated in the event of certain transactions resulting in a transfer of control of JNI.

Compensation expense is recognized over the period of benefit, generally four years, for the Company's employee stock option grants, which are fixed in nature, when the options are granted with exercise prices less than fair market value of the underlying stock, as determined by the Company's Board of Directors. During fiscal year 1997, charges to operations under these plans totaled $5. Had compensation cost for the Company's stock based compensation plans been determined based on the fair value at the grant dates for awards under those plans consistent with the method of Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 123, the Company's net income and net earnings per share would have been reduced to the pro forma amounts indicated below: YEAR ENDED JANUARY 31, --------------- 1997 1996 ----- ----- Net income: As reported............................................. $ 357 $ 336 Pro forma............................................... 239 324 Net earnings per share: As reported............................................. $0.17 $0.16 Pro forma............................................... 0.12 0.16 F-16 78 JAYMARK, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE AND PER SHARE DATA) The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions used for grants during fiscal years 1997 and 1996, respectively: dividend yield of 0.0% and 0.0%; expected volatility of 0.0% and 0.0%; risk-free interest rate of 6.30% and 6.66%; and expected term of 5.1 years and 6.4 years.

Various claims arising in the course of business, seeking monetary damages and other relief, are pending. The amount of the liability, if any, from such claims, cannot be determined with certainty; however, in the opinion of management, the ultimate liability for such claims will not have a material adverse affect on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. NOTE 9 -- COMMON STOCK The Company has two classes of Common Stock, Class A and Class B (collectively, "Common Stock"). The holders of Common Stock are entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters submitted to a vote of the holders of Common Stock. Holders of Common Stock are entitled to receive ratably such dividends as may be declared by the Board of Directors out of funds legally available therefor. As of January 31, 1997, there were no shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding. The Class B Common Stock consists of five series, divided evenly among each such series. Upon the closing of the Offering, all shares of the first series will automatically convert into shares of Class A Common Stock. Upon the annual anniversary of the closing of the Offering, the next series will automatically convert into shares of Class A Common Stock. Accordingly, on the fourth anniversary of the closing of the Offering, all shares of Class B Common Stock will have converted into shares of Class A Common Stock. F-18 80 JAYMARK, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT SHARE AND PER SHARE DATA) During October, 1996, options to purchase 36,000 shares of Common Stock were exercised in return for a fully-secured recourse note receivable in the amount of $150. This amount has been reflected as a stock subscription receivable in the consolidated balance sheet at January 31, 1997. Effective January 31, 1997, the Company entered into a retirement agreement with one of its officers and directors. Pursuant to the retirement agreement, the Company agreed to repurchase 120,000 shares of Common Stock from the former employee at a price of $8.33 per share, subject to adjustment if the closing of the Offering does not occur during calendar year 1997. The Company is obligated to repurchase such shares within 30 days of the closing of the Offering, subject to certain conditions.

The following table sets forth all costs and expenses payable by the Registrant in connection with the sale and distribution of the securities being registered, other than underwriting discounts and commissions. All amounts shown are estimates except the Securities and Exchange Commission registration fee and the NASD filing fee.

INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS. Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law permits indemnification of officers, directors and other corporate agents under certain circumstances and subject to certain limitations. The Registrant's Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws provide that the Registrant shall indemnify its directors and officers to the full extent permitted by Delaware General Corporation Law, including the circumstances in which indemnification is otherwise discretionary under Delaware law, and authorize the Registrant to indemnify its employees and agents to such extent. In addition, the Registrant intends to enter into separate indemnity agreements with its directors and executive officers that require the Registrant, among other things, to indemnify them against certain liabilities which may arise by reason of their status or service (other than liabilities arising from willful misconduct of a culpable nature) and to maintain directors' and officers' liability insurance, if available on reasonable terms. These indemnification provisions and the indemnity agreements to be entered into between the Registrant and its directors and executive officers may be sufficiently broad to permit indemnification of the Registrant's directors and executive officers for liabilities (including reimbursement of expenses incurred) arising under the Securities Act. The Underwriting Agreement filed as Exhibit 1.1 to this Registration Statement provides for indemnification by the Underwriters of the Registrant and its officers and directors for certain liabilities arising under the Securities Act, or otherwise. ITEM 15. RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES. Since January 31, 1994, the Registrant has issued and sold the following unregistered securities: (a) Issuances of Shares of Common Stock. On October 24, 1996, pursuant to the terms of an Agreement for Purchase and Sale of Assets by and among the Company, Long John Productions, Inc. ("LJPI") and John Biffar ("Biffar"), Jaycor, Inc., a California corporation ("Jaycor"), issued and sold a total of 5,464 shares of its common stock (as adjusted for II-1 84 the three-for-five reverse split effective May 29, 1997 (the "Stock Split")) to LJPI in Biffar's name, as partial consideration for the acquisition of certain assets in October 1995. Effective January 31, 1997, Jaycor reorganized into a holding company structure pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the "Reorganization Agreement") by and among Jaycor, Jaycor Acquisition Company, a California corporation, and Jaycor Emerging Technologies, Inc., a California corporation ("JETI"). Pursuant to the Reorganization Agreement, JETI issued 1,859,492 shares of its common stock to the shareholders of Jaycor and, accordingly, became the parent corporation of Jaycor and each of its wholly owned subsidiaries. On February 28, 1997, pursuant to the terms of an Employment Agreement by and between Jaycor and Robert M. Howell ("Howell"), JETI issued and sold a total of 2,148 shares of its common stock (as adjusted for the Stock Split) to Howell as partial consideration for services rendered thereunder. On March 5, 1997, Jaymark, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Jaymark"), issued and sold 100 shares of its common stock to JETI. Effective May 29, 1997, Jaymark and JETI entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement"), pursuant to which (i) JETI merged with and into Jaymark, with Jaymark as the surviving corporation, (ii) the 100 issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Jaymark were canceled and retired, and (iii) Jaymark issued 1,861,640 shares of its Class B Common Stock to the shareholders of JETI. (b) Option Issuances to, and Exercises by, Employees and Directors. From January 31, 1994 to the present, Jaycor issued options to purchase a total of 352,800 shares of its common stock (as adjusted for the Stock Split) at exercise prices ranging from $1.95 to $6.48 per share to 34 employees and three non-employee directors. No consideration was paid to Jaycor by any recipient of any of the foregoing options for the grant of any such options. From January 31, 1994 to the present, Jaycor issued a total of 45,000 shares of its common stock (as adjusted for the Stock Split) to two employees upon exercise of stock options at an exercise price of $4.03 per share. On January 31, 1997, pursuant to the Reorganization Agreement, all of such outstanding options were converted into options to purchase shares of common stock of JETI. On May 29, 1997, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, each such outstanding option was converted into an option to purchase three-fifths of a share of Class B Common Stock of Jaymark. There were no underwriters employed in connection with any of the transactions set forth in Item 15. The issuances described in Items 15(a) were deemed to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act in reliance on Section 4(2) of the Securities Act as transactions by an issuer not involving a public offering or, where appropriate, in reliance on Rule 145(a)(2) under the Securities Act. In addition, the issuances described in Item 15(b) were deemed exempt from registration under the Securities Act in reliance on Rule 701 promulgated thereunder as transactions pursuant to compensatory benefit plans and contracts relating to compensation or, where appropriate, in reliance on Rule 145(a)(2) under the Securities Act. The recipients of securities in each such transaction represented their intention to acquire the securities for investment only and not with a view to or for sale in connection with any distribution thereof and appropriate legends were affixed to the share certificates and other instruments issued in such transactions. All recipients either received adequate information about the Registrant or had access, through employment or other relationships, to such information. II-2 85 ITEM 16.

UNDERTAKINGS. The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes to provide to the Underwriters at the closing specified in the Underwriting Agreement certificates in such denominations and registered in such names as required by the Underwriters to permit prompt delivery to each purchaser. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the provisions referenced in Item 14 of this Registration Statement, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered hereunder, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that: (1) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, the information omitted from the form of Prospectus filed as part of this Registration Statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in the form of Prospectus filed by the Registrant pursuant to Rule 424 (b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this Registration Statement as of the time it was declared effective; and (2) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each posteffective amendment that contains a form of Prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. II-4 87 SIGNATURES Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the Registrant has duly caused this amendment to the registration statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the City of San Diego, State of California, on the 6th day of June, 1997.
