1. Basis of presentation
The accompanying condensed unaudited financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of
Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for annual
financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments,
consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a
fair presentation have been included. The results for the interim periods
presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected
for any future period. The following information should be read in conjunction
with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 1999.
2. Net income (loss) per share
Basic net income (loss) per share is computed using the weighted average
number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income
(loss) per share is computed using the weighted average number of common and
dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding during the period, using either
the as-if-converted method for convertible preferred stock or the treasury
stock method for options and warrants.
Pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 98, common stock and
convertible preferred stock issued for nominal consideration and options and
warrants granted for nominal consideration prior to the initial public
offering (IPO) are included in the calculation of basic and diluted net income
(loss) per share, as if they were outstanding for all periods presented. The
following is a reconciliation of the denominators of the basic and diluted net
income per share computations for the periods presented:

equivalent shares would have been anti-dilutive for the three-month period
ended April 26, 1998, and, as a result, such effect has been excluded from the
computation of diluted net loss per share during this period.

Item 2: Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
The following discussion contains forward-looking statements within the
meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which are subject to the "safe harbor"
created by those sections. These forward-looking statements include but are
not limited to: statements related to industry trends and future growth in the
markets for 3D graphics processors; our product development efforts; the
timing of our introduction of new products; industry and consumer acceptance
of our products; and future profitability. These forward-looking statements
involve risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ
materially from those in the forward-looking statements. We undertake no
obligation to publicly release any revisions to the forward-looking statements
or reflect events or circumstances after the date of this document. The
business risks on pages 14 through 19, among other things, should be
considered in evaluating our prospects and future financial performance.
Overview
We design, develop and market 3D graphics processors that provide high
performance interactive 3D graphics to the mainstream PC market. Substantially
all of our revenue in the year ended January 31, 1999 and the three months
ended May 2, 1999 was derived from the sale and license of the RIVA family of
graphics processors. In the first quarter of fiscal 2000, we began commercial
shipment of the RIVA TNT2 and the VANTA graphics processors. We expect that
substantially all of our revenue for the foreseeable future will be derived
from the sale and license of our 3D graphics processors in the mainstream PC
market. We recognize product sales revenue upon shipment, net of appropriate
allowances. Our policy on sales to distributors is to defer recognition of
sales and related gross profit until the distributors resell the product.
Royalty revenue is generally recognized upon shipment of product to the
licensee's customers. Since we have no other product line, our business would
suffer if for any reason our graphics processors do not achieve widespread
acceptance in the mainstream PC market.
A majority of our sales have been to a limited number of customers and sales
are highly concentrated. We sell graphics processors to add-in board
manufacturers, primarily Creative Technology Ltd., Diamond Multimedia Systems,
Inc. and STB Systems, Inc., and motherboard manufacturers such as Intel
Corporation. These manufacturers incorporate our processors in the boards they
sell to PC original equipment manufacturers ("OEMs"), retail outlets and
systems integrators. The average selling prices ("ASPs") for our products, as
well as our customers' products, vary by distribution channel. Substantially
all of our sales are made on the basis of purchase orders rather than long-
term agreements. Sales to Diamond accounted for 27%, sales to Creative
accounted for 20%, sales to STB accounted for 13%, sales to Intel accounted
for 10% and sales to EDOM Technology Co., Ltd. accounted for 10% of our total
revenue for the three months ended May 2, 1999. Sales to STB accounted for 53%
and sales to Diamond accounted for 35% of our total revenue for the three
months ended April 26, 1998. The number of potential customers for our
products is limited, and we expect sales to Creative and Diamond will continue
to account for a substantial portion of our revenue for the foreseeable
future. 3Dfx, a 3D graphics company and a competitor, completed the
acquisition of STB in May 1999. As a result of the acquisition, we expect our
sales to STB to decline significantly from prior levels and we expect STB to
cease to be one of our significant customers. Currently, all of our product
sales and our arrangements with third-party manufacturers provide for pricing
and payment in U.S. dollars. We have not engaged in any foreign currency
hedging activities, although we may do so in the future.
As markets for our 3D graphics processors develop and competition increases,
we anticipate that product life cycles will remain short and ASPs will
continue to decline. In particular, ASPs and gross margins are expected to
decline as each product matures. Our add-in board manufacturers and major OEM
customers typically introduce new system configurations as often as twice per
year, typically based on spring and fall design cycles. Accordingly, our
existing products must have competitive performance levels in order to be
included in new system configurations, or we must timely introduce new
products with such performance characteristics at costs and in sufficient
volumes to maintain overall average selling prices and gross margins. Failure
to achieve necessary costs and volume shipments with respect to future
products or product enhancements could result in rapidly declining ASPs,
reduced margins, reduced demand for products or loss of market share.
9
We currently utilize Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company ("TSMC") and
WaferTech, LLC to produce semiconductor wafers and utilize independent
contractors to perform assembly, test and packaging. We depend on these
suppliers to allocate to us a portion of their manufacturing capacity
sufficient to meet our needs, to produce products of acceptable quality and at
acceptable manufacturing yields, and to deliver those products to us on a
timely basis. These manufacturers may not always be able to meet our near-term
or long-term manufacturing requirements. Yields or product performance could
suffer due to difficulties associated with adapting our technology and product
design to the proprietary process technology and design rules of each
manufacturer. A manufacturing disruption experienced by these manufacturers
would impact the production of our products, which would harm our business. In
addition, as the complexity of our products and the accompanying manufacturing
process increases, there is an increasing risk that we will experience
problems with the performance of new products and that there will be yield
problems or other delays in the development or introduction of these products.
We have recently introduced the RIVA TNT2 and VANTA graphics processors and we
may experience problems or other delays while ramping up production of these
products.
Substantially all of our sales are made on the basis of purchase orders
rather than long-term agreements. As a result, we may commit resources to the
production of products without having received advance purchase commitments
from customers. Any inability to sell products to which we have devoted
significant resources could harm our business. In addition, cancellation or
deferral of product orders could result in our holding excess inventory, which
could adversely affect our profit margins and restrict our ability to fund
operations. Revenue from sales to add-in board and motherboard manufacturers
is recognized upon shipment of products. Revenue and related gross profit from
sales to distributors are deferred until the distributors resell the product.
Product returns or delays or difficulties in collecting accounts receivable
could result in significant charges against income, which could harm our
business.
Results of Operations
Three Months Ended May 2, 1999 and April 26, 1998
Revenue
Product Revenue. Product revenue increased 188% to $71.0 million in the
three months ended May 2, 1999 from $24.6 million in the three months ended
April 26, 1998. The increase was primarily the result of increased sales of
our RIVA family of graphics processors, particularly the RIVA TNT2 graphics
processors. Revenue from sales outside of the U.S. accounted for 51% of total
revenue in the first quarter of fiscal 2000, and all of our revenue in the
comparable period for the prior fiscal year was derived from product sales in
the U.S. This increase in revenue from sales outside of the U.S. is primarily
attributable to (i) the geographic limitation of the worldwide license
agreement with ST Microelectronics, Inc. with respect to sales of the RIVA128
and RIVA128ZX graphics processors, which agreement did not restrict the sales
of the RIVA TNT, RIVA TNT2 and VANTA families of processors in the three
months ended May 2, 1999, and (ii) increased demand for our products in the
Asia Pacific region. We believe that the substantial growth in product revenue
achieved in this period is not necessarily indicative of future results. In
addition, we expect that the ASPs of our products will decline over the lives
of the products. The declines in ASPs of 3D graphics processors generally may
also accelerate as the market develops and competition increases.
Royalty Revenue. ST has a worldwide license to sell the RIVA128 and
RIVA128ZX graphics processors. Royalty revenue from sales by ST of the RIVA128
graphics processor and a derivative of the RIVA128ZX graphics processor was
$3.6 million, or 13% of our total revenue, in the three months ended April 26,
1998. Royalty revenue decreased to zero in the three months ended May 2, 1999
over the comparable period in fiscal 1999 due primarily to reduced sales of
such products and disputes with ST regarding payment. We expect royalty
revenue from ST to decrease both in absolute dollars and as a percentage of
total revenue in the future when compared to periods other than the first
quarter of fiscal 2000.
10
Gross Profit
Gross profit consists of total revenue net of allowances less cost of
revenue. Cost of revenue consists primarily of the costs of semiconductors
purchased from contract manufacturers (including assembly, test and
packaging), manufacturing support costs (labor and overhead associated with
such purchases), inventory provisions and shipping costs. Gross profit
increased to $25.1 million in the three months ended May 2, 1999 from $7.4
million in the three months ended April 26, 1998. Excluding royalty revenue,
gross margin on product revenue increased to 35% in the first quarter of
fiscal 2000 from 15% in the first quarter of fiscal 1999. The sales of the
higher margin RIVA TNT and TNT2 graphics processors and reductions to costs of
manufacturing the RIVA TNT2 and VANTA graphics processors contributed to the
increase in gross margin. Although we achieved substantial growth in gross
profit and gross margin in this period, we do not expect to sustain these
rates of growth in future periods.
Operating Expenses
Research and Development. Research and development expenses consist of
salaries and benefits, cost of development tools and software, and consultant
costs. As a percentage of total revenue, research and development expenses
decreased to 12% in the three months ended May 2, 1999 from 16% in the three
months ended April 26, 1998, and increased in absolute dollars to $8.8 million
from $4.6 million. The increase in absolute dollars was primarily due to
additional personnel and related engineering costs to support our next
generations products, such as depreciation charges incurred on capital
expenditures and software license and maintenance fees. We anticipate that we
will continue to devote substantial resources to research and development, and
we expect these expenses to increase in absolute dollars in each of the
remaining quarters of fiscal 2000. Research and development expenses are
likely to fluctuate from time to time to the extent we make periodic
incremental investments in research and development and our level of revenue
fluctuates.
As part of a strategic collaboration agreement with ST, we received contract
funding in support of research and development and marketing efforts for the
RIVA128 and RIVA128ZX graphics processors. Accordingly, we recorded
approximately $625,000 in the three months ended April 26, 1998 as a reduction
primarily to research and development. We were obligated to provide continued
development and support to ST through the end of calendar 1998. We currently
do not have any plans to enter into contractual development arrangements and
do not expect to receive contract funding in the future.
Sales, General and Administrative. Sales, general and administrative
expenses consist primarily of salaries, commissions and bonuses earned by
sales, marketing and administrative personnel, promotional and advertising
expenses, travel and entertainment expenses and legal expenses. Sales, general
and administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenue decreased to 10%
in the first quarter of fiscal 2000 from 14% in the first quarter of fiscal
1999 and increased in absolute dollars to $7.3 million from $3.9 million. The
increase in absolute dollars was primarily the result of legal expenses
associated with patent litigation, as well as additional personnel and
commissions and bonuses on sales of the RIVA TNT and RIVA TNT2 graphics
processors. We expect sales, general and administrative expenses to continue
to increase in absolute dollars as we expand our operations, but we do not
expect significant changes in these expenses as a percentage of revenue in
future periods.
Interest and Other Income (Expense), Net
Interest income primarily consists of interest earned on cash and cash
equivalents. Interest expense primarily consists of interest incurred as a
result of capital lease obligations, and interest on borrowings under our line
of credit agreement. Net interest income increased to $342,000 in the three
months ended May 2, 1999 from $27,000 in the three months ended April 26,
1998. The increase in interest income was primarily due to higher average cash
balances as a result of cash proceeds received from the initial public
offering of our common stock in January 1999.
11
Income Taxes
We had an effective tax rate of 33% in the three months ended May 2, 1999.
The income taxes in the three months ended April 26, 1998 consisted primarily
of deferred federal tax benefit. We anticipate our tax rates for the remainder
of fiscal 2000 will remain relatively constant, depending on the availability
and realizability of deferred tax assets. Realization of the deferred tax
assets will depend on future taxable income.
Stock-Based Compensation
With respect to stock options granted to employees, we recorded deferred
compensation of $4.3 million in 1997 and $361,000 in the one month ended
January 31, 1998. These amounts are being amortized over the vesting period of
the individual options, generally four years. We amortized approximately
$943,000 in the three months ended April 26, 1998 and $259,000 in the three
months ended May 2, 1999. We anticipate amortization of approximately $650,000
in fiscal 2000.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of May 2, 1999, we had $51.8 million in cash and cash equivalents. In
January 1999, we sold a total of 3.5 million shares of common stock in an
initial public offering at a price of $12.00 per share, for net proceeds of
$37.5 million. In February 1999, we received an additional $5.8 million from
the underwriters' exercise of their option to purchase an additional 525,000
shares of common stock. Approximately $5.0 million of the net proceeds were
used to repay in full amounts outstanding under a bank line of credit. The
balance of the net proceeds will be used for general corporate purposes,
including capital expenditures and working capital. We historically have held
our cash balances in cash equivalents such as money market funds or as cash.
We place the money market funds with high quality financial institutions and
limit the amount of exposure with any one financial institution. We had $32.4
million of noncancelable inventory purchase commitments outstanding at May 2,
1999.
In September 1998, we entered into a loan and security agreement with a
bank, which included a $5.0 million credit facility. Borrowings under the line
of credit carried interest at prime rate plus 1% and were due in March 1999.
We had borrowed $5.0 million against the line of credit, all of which was
repaid in March 1999.
Net cash provided by operating activities was $3.4 million in the three
months ended May 2, 1999 compared to $1.4 million in the three months ended
April 26, 1998. For the three months ended May 2, 1999, the increased cash
provided by operating activities was a result of higher net income, a
reduction in inventory, and an increase in accrued liabilities, which was
offset somewhat by an increase in accounts receivable and a decrease in
accounts payable. Our accounts receivable are highly concentrated. Five
customers accounted for approximately 72% of the accounts receivable for the
three months ended May 2, 1999. Although we have not experienced any bad debt
write-offs to date, we may be required to write off bad debt in the future,
which could harm our business. In particular, we have had discussions with a
major customer concerning the size of its obligation to us and the timing of
payments. On June 9, 1999, we entered into an agreement with the customer to
repurchase 428,572 shares of our common stock from them in settlement for a
portion of then outstanding accounts receivable.
To date, our investing activities have consisted primarily of purchases of
property and equipment. Our capital expenditures, including capital leases,
were $12.5 million in the three months ended May 2, 1999 and $4.2 million in
the three months ended April 26, 1998. The increase was primarily attributable
to a $10.0 million obligation pursuant to a long-term licensing agreement with
a supplier. We expect capital expenditures to increase as we further expand
research and development initiatives and as our employee base grows. The
timing and amount of future capital expenditures will depend primarily on our
future growth. We expect to spend an additional $5.0 to $10.0 million for
capital expenditures in the next nine months, primarily for software licenses,
emulation equipment and the purchase of computer and engineering workstations.
12
We believe that our existing cash balances, anticipated cash flows from
operations and capital lease financing will be sufficient to meet our
operating and capital requirements for at least the next 12 months, although
we could be required, or could elect, to raise additional funds during that
period. We expect that we may need to raise additional equity or debt
financing in the future. Additional financing may not be available on
favorable terms or at all and may be dilutive to our then-current
stockholders. We also may require additional capital for other purposes not
presently contemplated. If we are unable to obtain sufficient capital, we
could be required to curtail capital equipment purchases and/or research and
development expenditures, which could harm our business.
Year 2000 Compliance
The Year 2000 issue is the result of computer programs written using two
digits rather than four to define the applicable year. Computer programs that
have date-sensitive software like this may recognize a date using "00" as the
year 1900 rather than the year 2000. This could result in a system failure or
miscalculations causing disruptions of operations, including, among other
things, a temporary inability to process transactions, send invoices or engage
in similar normal business activities.
We are heavily dependent upon the proper functioning of our own computer or
data-dependent systems. These include, but are not limited to, information
systems in business, finance, operations and service. Any failure or
malfunctioning on the part of these or other systems could adversely affect us
in ways that are not currently known, discernible, quantifiable or otherwise
anticipated by us.
Our graphics processors and related software do not depend on any date-
sensitive functions in order to perform in accordance with their respective
designs, and we do not expect their functions to be negatively affected by the
Year 2000 issue. Our products are ultimately used with a number of different
hardware and software products, and to the extent these third-party products
are not Year 2000 compliant, the interoperability of our products may be
adversely affected. Given the number of third-party components and our limited
resources, we do not expect to review these third-party products.
We have conducted and completed an initial audit of our critical internal
financial, informational and operational systems and our electronic design
tools to identify and evaluate those areas of our business that may be
affected by the Year 2000 issue. We have completed a detailed plan to
implement and test any necessary modifications to these key areas to ensure
that they are Year 2000 compliant. Our plan includes the following components:
. independent validation of our Year 2000 assessment procedures;
. formal communications with all significant suppliers, large customers
and tools vendors to determine the extent to which we are vulnerable to
those third parties' failure to remedy their own Year 2000 issues; and
. the development of contingency plans to address situations that may
result if we are unable to achieve Year 2000 readiness of our critical
operations.
We anticipate that any required remediation programs will be completed by
the end of calendar 1999.
To date, we have not incurred material incremental costs associated with our
efforts to become Year 2000 compliant, as the majority of the costs have
occurred as a result of normal upgrade procedures. We believe that future
costs associated with our Year 2000 compliance efforts will not exceed
$500,000.
In addition to the risks associated with our own systems, we have
relationships with, and are to varying degrees dependent upon, a large number
of third parties that provide information, goods and services to us and
manufacture our graphics processors. Our business could suffer if key
suppliers experience Year 2000 issues that cause them to delay manufacturing
or shipment of finished product to us. In addition, our results of operations
could suffer if any of our key customers encounter Year 2000 issues that cause
them to delay or cancel
13
substantial purchase orders or delivery of our product. We have begun to
initiate formal communications to ascertain the Year 2000 compliance of key
suppliers and determine the extent to which we may be vulnerable to those
third parties' failure to remedy their own Year 2000 issues.
We have completed an inventory of internal systems, hardware, software,
communication networks and non-information technology systems and services. We
are in the process of doing the following:
. assessing specific underlying computer systems, programs and hardware;
. evaluating remediation or replacement of Year 2000 non-compliant
technology;
. conducting validation and testing of technologically compliant Year 2000
solutions; and
. completing implementation of Year 2000 compliant systems.
While we plan to complete modifications or upgrades of our business-critical
systems prior to the Year 2000, we may be unable to develop a plan to address
the Year 2000 issue in a timely manner or to upgrade any or all of our major
systems in accordance with our plan. If any required modifications or upgrades
or modifications by key suppliers or customers are not completed in a timely
manner or are not successful, we may be unable to conduct our business. In
addition, any upgrades made may not effectively address the Year 2000 issue.
Furthermore, the systems of other companies on which we rely for the
manufacture of our products may not be converted in a timely manner. A failure
to convert by another company, or a conversion that is incompatible with our
systems, could harm our business.
We or one or more third parties may encounter unforeseen problems with
respect to any of our systems, which could harm our business. We are currently
evaluating possible actions, including accumulating excess inventory of our
finished products, to be taken in the event that our assessment of the Year
2000 issue is not successfully completed on a timely basis, but we have not
yet established a formal contingency plan.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Interest Rate Risk
The primary objective of our investment activities is to preserve principal
while at the same time maximizing the income we receive from the investments
without significantly increasing risk. To minimize potential loss arising from
adverse changes in interest rates, we maintain a portfolio of cash and cash
equivalents primarily in highly rated domestic money market funds. In general,
money market funds are not subject to market risk because the interest paid on
such funds fluctuates with the prevailing interest rate.
Exchange Rate Risk
We consider our exposure to foreign exchange rate fluctuations to be
minimal. Currently, all of our arrangements with third-party manufacturers
provide for pricing and payment in U.S. dollars, and, therefore, are not
subject to exchange rate fluctuations. To date, we have not engaged in any
currency hedging activities, although we may do so in the future. Fluctuations
in foreign currency exchange rates could harm our business in the future.
Certain Business Risks
In addition to the risks discussed in "Management's Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," our business is subject to
the risks set forth below.
Our operating results are unpredictable and they may fluctuate. Many of our
revenue components fluctuate and are difficult to predict, and our operating
expenses are largely independent of revenue in any particular period. It is
therefore difficult for us to accurately forecast revenue and profits or
losses. We believe that, even if we do achieve significant sales of our
products, our quarterly and annual results of operations will be affected by a
variety of factors that could adversely affect our revenue, gross profit and
results of operations.
14
Factors that have affected our results of operations in the past, and are
likely to affect our results of operations in the future, include the
following:
. demand and market acceptance for our products;
. the successful development of next-generation products;
. unanticipated delays or problems in the introduction or performance of
next-generation products;
. market acceptance of the products of our customers;
. new product announcements or product introductions by our competitors;
. our ability to introduce new products in accordance with OEM design
requirements and design cycles;
. changes in the timing of product orders due to unexpected delays in the
introduction of products of our customers or due to the life cycles of
our customers' products ending earlier than anticipated;
. fluctuations in the availability of manufacturing capacity or
manufacturing yields;
. competitive pressures resulting in lower than expected average selling
prices;
. the volume of orders that are received and that can be fulfilled in a
quarter;
. rates of return in excess of that forecasted/expected due to quality
issues;
. the rescheduling or cancellation of customer orders;
. the unanticipated termination of strategic relationships;
. seasonal fluctuations associated with the tendency of PC sales to
decrease in the second quarter and increase in the second half of each
calendar year; and
. the level of expenditures for our research and development and sales,
general and administrative functions.
In addition, we may experience difficulties related to the production of
current or future products and other factors may delay the introduction or
volume sales of new products we develop. We believe that quarterly and annual
results of operations also could be affected in the future by other factors,
including the following:
. changes in the relative volume of sales of our products;
. seasonality in the PC market;
. our ability to reduce the process geometry of our products;
. supply constraints for the other components incorporated into our
customers' products;
. the loss of a key customer;
. changes in the pricing of dynamic random access memory devices ("DRAMs")
or other memory components;
. legal and other costs related to defending intellectual property
litigation;
. costs associated with protecting our intellectual property;
. costs related to acquiring or licensing intellectual property;
. inventory write-downs; and
. foreign exchange rate fluctuations.
Any one or more of the factors discussed above could prevent us from
achieving our expected future revenue or net income.
15
Because most operating expenses are relatively fixed in the short term, we
may be unable to adjust spending sufficiently in a timely manner to compensate
for any unexpected sales shortfall. We may be required to reduce prices in
response to competition or to pursue new market opportunities. If new
competitors, technological advances by existing competitors or other
competitive factors require us to invest significantly greater resources than
anticipated in research and development or sales and marketing efforts, our
business could suffer. Accordingly, we believe that period-to-period
comparisons of our results of operations should not be relied upon as an
indication of our future performance. In addition, the results of any
quarterly period are not indicative of results to be expected for a full
fiscal year.
We have a limited operating history and a history of losses. We have a
limited operating history and it is difficult to predict our future operating
results. Our recent revenue growth may not be sustainable and should not be
considered indicative of future revenue growth, if any. As of May 2, 1999, our
accumulated deficit was approximately $3.2 million. Although we generated net
income in the three months ended May 2, 1999, in the second half of fiscal
1999 and in the three months ended December 31, 1997, we incurred losses in
the first half of fiscal 1999, in the first three quarters of fiscal 1997 and
in each quarter of our prior fiscal years. We may not be profitable on a
quarterly or annual basis in the future.
We need to develop new products and manage product transitions in order to
succeed. Our business will depend to a significant extent on our ability to
successfully develop new products for the 3D graphics market. Our add-in board
manufacturers and major OEM customers typically introduce new system
configurations as often as twice per year, typically based on spring and fall
design cycles. Accordingly, our existing products must have competitive
performance levels or we must timely introduce new products with such
performance characteristics in order to be included in new system
configurations. This requires that we do the following:
. anticipate the features and functionality that consumers will demand;
. incorporate those features and functionality into products that meet the
exacting design requirements of PC OEMs and add-in board manufacturers;
. price our products competitively; and
. introduce the products to the market within the limited window for PC
OEM and add-in board manufacturer design cycles.
As a result, we believe that significant expenditures for research and
development will continue to be required in the future.
Our strategy is to utilize the most advanced process technology appropriate
for our products and available from commercial third-party foundries. Use of
advanced processes has in the past resulted in initial yield problems. New
products that we introduce may not incorporate the features and functionality
demanded by PC OEMs, add-in board manufacturers and consumers of 3D graphics.
In addition, we may not successfully develop or introduce new products in
sufficient volumes within the appropriate time to meet both the PC OEMs'
design cycles and market demand. We have in the past experienced delays in the
development of some new products. Our failure to successfully develop,
introduce or achieve market acceptance for new 3D graphics products would harm
our business.
As markets for our 3D graphics processors develop and competition increases,
we anticipate that product life cycles will remain short and average selling
prices ("ASPs") will continue to decline. In particular, we expect ASPs and
gross margins for our 3D graphics processors to decline as each product
matures and as unit volumes increase. As a result, we will need to introduce
new products and enhancements to existing products to maintain overall ASPs
and gross margins. In order for our 3D graphics processors to achieve high
volumes, leading PC OEMs and add-in board manufacturers must select our 3D
graphics processor for design into their products, and then successfully
complete the designs of their products and sell them. We may be unable to
successfully identify new product opportunities or develop and bring to market
in a timely fashion any new products. In addition, we cannot guarantee that
any new products we develop will be selected for design into PC OEMs' and add-
in board manufacturers' products, that any new designs will be successfully
completed or that
16
any new products will be sold. As the complexity of our products and the
manufacturing process for our products increases, there is an increasing risk
that we will experience problems with the performance of our products and that
there will be delays in the development, introduction or volume shipment of
our products. We recently introduced the RIVA TNT2 and VANTA graphics
processors. While we have not experienced yield problems to date, we may
experience problems or other delays while ramping up production of these
products. We may experience difficulties related to the production of current
or future products or other factors may delay the introduction or volume sale
of new products we developed. In addition, we may be unable to successfully
manage the production transition risks with respect to future products.
Failure to achieve any of the foregoing with respect to future products or
product enhancements could result in rapidly declining ASPs, reduced margins,
reduced demand for our products or loss of market share. In addition,
technologies developed by others may render our 3D graphics products non-
competitive or obsolete or result in our holding excess inventory, either of
which would harm our business.
In the design and development of new products and product enhancements, we
rely on third-party software development tools. While we currently are not
dependent on any one vendor for the supply of these tools, some or all of
these tools may not be readily available in the future. For example, we have
experienced delays in the introduction of products in the past as a result of
the inability of then-available software development tools to fully simulate
the complex features and functionality of our products. The design
requirements necessary to meet consumer demands for more features and greater
functionality from 3D graphics products in the future may exceed the
capabilities of the software development tools available to us. If the
software development tools we use become unavailable or fail to produce
designs that meet consumer demands, our business could suffer.
We may be unable to obtain design wins. Our future success will depend in
large part on achieving design wins, which entails having our existing and
future products chosen as the 3D graphics processors for hardware components
or subassemblies designed by PC OEMs and add-in board manufacturers. Our
failure to achieve one or more design wins would harm our business. The
process of being qualified for inclusion in a PC OEM's product can be lengthy
and could cause us to miss a cycle in the demand of end users for a particular
product feature, which also could harm our business.
Our ability to achieve design wins will depend in part on our ability to
identify and ensure compliance with evolving industry standards. Unanticipated
changes in industry standards could render our products incompatible with
products developed by major hardware manufacturers and software developers,
including Intel and Microsoft. This would require us to invest significant
time and resources to redesign our products to ensure compliance with relevant
standards. If our products are not in compliance with prevailing industry
standards for a significant period of time, our ability to achieve design wins
could suffer. Our failure to achieve design wins would result in the loss of
any potential sales volume that could be generated by newly designed PC
hardware component or board subassembly. This would give a competitive
advantage to the 3D graphics processor manufacturer that achieved the design
win.
We are dependent on the desktop PC market, which may not continue to
grow. In the year ended January 31, 1999, and the three months ended May 2,
1999, we derived all of our revenue from the sale or license of products for
use in PCs. We expect to continue to derive substantially all of our revenue
from the sale or license of products for use in PCs. The PC market is
characterized by rapidly changing technology, evolving industry standards,
frequent new product introductions and significant price competition. These
factors result in short product life cycles and regular reductions of average
selling prices over the life of a specific product. Although the PC market has
grown substantially in recent years, this growth may not continue. A reduction
in sales of PCs, or a reduction in the growth rate of PC sales, would likely
reduce demand for our products. Moreover, changes in demand could be large and
sudden. Since PC manufacturers often build inventories during periods of
anticipated growth, they may be left with excess inventories if growth slows
or if they have incorrectly forecast product transitions. In these cases, PC
manufacturers may abruptly suspend substantially all purchases of additional
inventory from suppliers like us until the excess inventory has been absorbed.
Any reduction in the demand for PCs generally, or for a particular product
that incorporates our 3D graphic processors, could harm our business.
17
The market for mainstream PC 3D graphics is new and uncertain. Our success
will depend, in part, upon the demand for 3D graphics for mainstream PC
applications. The market for 3D graphics on mainstream PCs has only recently
begun to emerge and is dependent on the future development of, and substantial
end-user and OEM demand for, 3D graphics functionality. As a result, the
market for mainstream PC 3D graphics computing may not continue to develop or
may not grow at a rate sufficient to support our business. The development of
the market for 3D graphics on mainstream PCs will in turn depend on the
development and availability of a large number of mainstream PC software
applications that support or take advantage of 3D graphics capabilities.
Currently there are only a limited number of software applications like this,
most of which are games, and a broader base of software applications may not
develop in the near term or at all. Until very recently, the majority of
multimedia PCs incorporated only 2D graphics acceleration technology, and as a
result, the majority of graphics applications currently available for
mainstream PCs are written for 2D acceleration technology. Consequently, a
broad market for full function 3D graphics on mainstream PCs may not develop.
Our business will suffer if the market for mainstream PC 3D graphics fails to
develop or develops more slowly than expected.
We are dependent on a small number of customers and we are subject to order
and shipment uncertainties. We have only a limited number of customers and our
sales are highly concentrated. We primarily sell our products to add-in board
manufacturers, which incorporate graphics products in the boards they sell to
PC OEMs. Sales to add-in board manufacturers are primarily dependent on
achieving design wins with leading PC OEMs. We believe that a significant
portion of our revenue in the most recent quarter was attributable to products
that ultimately were incorporated into PCs sold by Compaq Computer
Corporation, Dell Computer Corporation, Gateway 2000, Inc., International
Business Machines Corporation, Micron Technology, Inc. and Packard Bell NEC,
Inc. The number of add-in board manufacturers and leading PC OEMs is limited,
and we expect that a small number of add-in board manufacturers directly, and
a small number of PC OEMs indirectly, will continue to account for a
substantial portion of our revenue for the foreseeable future. As a result,
our business could be harmed by the decision of a single PC OEM or add-in
board manufacturer to cease using our products or by a decline in the number
of products sold by a single PC OEM or add-in board manufacturer or by a small
number of customers. In addition, revenue from add-in board manufacturers or
PC OEMs that have directly or indirectly accounted for significant revenue in
past periods, individually or as a group, may not continue, or may not reach
or exceed historical levels in any future period.
We depend on third-party manufacturers to produce our products. We do not
manufacture the semiconductor wafers used for our products and do not own or
operate a wafer fabrication facility. Our products require wafers manufactured
with state-of-the-art fabrication equipment and techniques. We utilize TSMC
and WaferTech to produce our semiconductor wafers and utilize independent
contractors to perform assembly, test and packaging. We depend on these
suppliers to allocate to us a portion of their manufacturing capacity
sufficient to meet our needs, to produce products of acceptable quality and at
acceptable manufacturing yields, and to deliver those products to us on a
timely basis. These manufacturers may be unable to meet our near-term or long-
term manufacturing requirements. We obtain manufacturing services on a
purchase order basis and TSMC has no obligation to provide us with any
specified minimum quantities of product. TSMC fabricates wafers for other
companies, including certain of our competitors, and could choose to
prioritize capacity for other users or reduce or eliminate deliveries to us on
short notice. Because the lead time needed to establish a strategic
relationship with a new manufacturing partner could be several months, there
is no readily available alternative source of supply for any specific product.
We believe that long-term market acceptance for our products will depend on
reliable relationships with TSMC and any other manufacturers used by us to
ensure adequate product supply to respond to customer demand.
We are dependent primarily on TSMC and we expect in the future to continue
to be dependent upon third-party manufacturers to do the following:
. produce wafers of acceptable quality and with acceptable manufacturing
yields;
. deliver those wafers to us and our independent assembly and testing
subcontractors on a timely basis and;
. allocate to us a portion of their manufacturing capacity sufficient to
meet our needs.
18
Our wafer requirements represent a small portion of the total production
capacity of TSMC. Although our products are designed using TSMC's process
design rules, TSMC may be unable to achieve or maintain acceptable yields or
deliver sufficient quantities of wafers on a timely basis or at an acceptable
cost. Additionally, TSMC may not continue to devote resources to the
production of our products or to advance the process design technologies on
which the manufacturing of our products are based. Any difficulties like this
would harm our business.
Low manufacturing yields would harm our business. Semiconductor
manufacturing yields are a function both of product design, which is developed
largely by us, and process technology, which is typically proprietary to the
manufacturer. Since low yields may result from either design or process
technology failures, yield problems may not be effectively determined or
resolved until an actual product exists that can be analyzed and tested to
identify process sensitivities relating to the design rules that are used. As
a result, yield problems may not be identified until well into the production
process, and resolution of yield problems would require cooperation by and
communication between us and the manufacturer. The risk of low yields is
compounded by the offshore location of our manufacturers, increasing the
effort and time required to identify, communicate and resolve manufacturing
yield problems. Because of our potentially limited access to wafer fabrication
capacity from our manufacturers, any decrease in manufacturing yields could
result in an increase in our per unit costs and force us to allocate our
available product supply among our customers. This could potentially harm
customer relationships as well as revenue and gross profit. Our wafer
manufacturers may be unable to achieve or maintain acceptable manufacturing
yields in the future. Our inability to achieve planned yields from our wafer
manufacturers could harm our business.
We face many other risks. Also inherent in our business are additional
risks, which include but are not limited to the following:
. our ability to manage growth;
. our dependence on key personnel;
. our dependence on third parties to assemble and test our products;
. the risk of product returns, product defects or product
incompatibilities;
. our inability to transition to new manufacturing process technologies;
. the risks associated with international operations, which accounted for
a significant portion of our revenue in the three months ended May 2,
1999;
. the cyclical nature of the semiconductor industry; and
. our ability to adequately protect our intellectual property rights.
19
PART II: OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
On May 24, 1999, we were notified that 3Dfx had filed an additional patent
infringement lawsuit against us in the United States District Court for the
Northern District of California. The suit alleges that the sale and use of our
RIVA TNT2 graphics processor infringes a United States patent held by 3Dfx.
The suit seeks unspecified damages (including treble damages), an order
permanently enjoining further alleged infringement and attorneys' fees. Based
on our investigations to date, we believe that the allegations against us are
without merit, and we intend to vigorously defend the lawsuit.
Item 2. Changes in Securities and Use of Proceeds
Use of Proceeds from Sales of Registered Securities
We commenced our initial public offering on January 21, 1999 pursuant to a
Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-47495). The managing
underwriters of the public offering were Morgan Stanley & Co., Hambrecht &
Quist and Prudential Securities (the "Underwriters"). In the offering, we sold
an aggregate of 3,500,000 shares of our common stock for an initial price of
$12.00 per share. On February 2, 1999, we sold an additional 525,000 shares of
our common stock at a price of $12.00 per share pursuant to the exercise of
the Underwriter's over-allotment option. The aggregate proceeds from the
offering were $48.3 million. We paid expenses of approximately $5.0 million,
of which approximately $3.4 million represented underwriting discounts and
commissions and approximately $1.6 million represented expenses related to the
offering. Net proceeds from the offering were $43.3 million. Of the net
proceeds, as of May 2, 1999, $5.0 million had been used to repay in full
amounts outstanding under a bank line of credit. The use of the proceeds from
the offering does not represent a material change in the use of proceeds
described in our Registration Statement. As of May 2, 1999, the remainder of
the net proceeds were invested in money market funds.
Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities
On April 12, 1999, we issued an aggregate of 243,902 shares of common stock
in settlement of a $5.0 million installment payable by us under a five-year
software licensing agreement with a supplier in the electronic design
automation industry. We claimed exemptions under the Securities Act from
registration under the Securities Act for this transaction by virtue of
Section 4(2) and Regulation D promulgated thereunder as transactions not
involving a public offering. The investor represented its intention to acquire
the securities for investment only and not with a view to the distribution
thereof. Appropriate legends are affixed to the stock certificate issued in
the transaction. In addition, the investor is an "accredited investor" (as
that term is defined in Rule 501(a)(3) promulgated under the Securities Act).
