Basis of presentation The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and should be read in conjunction with the financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended October 31, 2000. In our opinion all normal recurring adjustments which are necessary for the fair presentation of the results for the interim periods are reflected herein. Operating results for the three-month period ended January 31, 2001, are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for a full year. Note 2. Recent accounting pronouncements In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission released Staff Accounting Bulletin 101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements." This pronouncement summarizes certain of the SEC staff's views on applying generally accepted accounting principles to revenue recognition. We have adopted SAB 101 for the fiscal year ending October 2001. We do not expect this adoption to have a material impact on our results of operations, financial position or cash flows. Note 3. Earnings per share The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net income per share for the three months ended January 31, 2000 and 2001: Three months ended January 31, ----------------------------------------- 2000 2001 --------------- -------------- (In thousands, except for per share data) Numerator: Net income........................................................ $ 7,168 $ 8,707 =============== ============== Denominator: Denominator for basic net income per share-- weighted average shares......................................... 51,149 51,943 Dilutive potential common shares from Team Member (employee) stock options................................. 2,574 2,120 --------------- -------------- Denominator for diluted net income per share-- adjusted weighted average shares and assumed conversions........ 53,723 54,063 =============== ============== Basic net income per share......................................... $ 0.14 $ 0.17 =============== ============== Diluted net income per share....................................... $ 0.13 $ 0.16 =============== ============== 5 Advanced Digital Information Corporation Notes to Interim Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued) January 31, 2001 (Unaudited) Note 4.

Investments in marketable equity securities and other investments At times we invest in certain marketable equity securities. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities," such investments are classified as available-for-sale. Under FAS 115, unrealized investment gains and losses, net of taxes, are reflected as a net amount in a separate component of shareholders' equity until realized. For the purpose of computing realized gains and losses, costs are identified on a specific identification basis. At January 31, 2001, the cost basis of marketable equity securities included as a current asset was $26,769,000 and the fair value was $25,878,000. The difference between the cost basis and fair value net of the benefit for taxes is recorded as a $579,000 unrealized investment loss. Other assets include the fair value of our remaining investment in Crossroads Systems, Inc. of $4,782,000. At January 31, 2001, the difference between the cost basis and fair value is $4,015,000. This amount, net of taxes of $1,405,000, is recorded as an unrealized investment gain of $2,610,000. During the quarter ended January 31, 2001 we realized a gain of $1,847,000 on certain marketable equity securities transactions. 6 Note 6. Acquisition of Pathlight Technology On January 30, 2001, we announced a definitive agreement to acquire Pathlight Technology, Inc. Pathlight, a privately held company based in Ithaca, New York, supplies products consisting of proprietary hardware and software that allows users to deploy advanced enterprise data storage systems called Storage Area Networks or SANs. SANs are used to solve the growing problem of providing organizations with efficient enterprise-wide access to electronic information. We will exchange 10.3 million shares of ADIC common stock for all of the outstanding stock, warrants and stock options of Pathlight in a merger intended to be accounted for as a pooling-of-interests. On February 14, 2001, we filed a Registration Statement on Form S-4 with the SEC relating to the shares to be issued in the merger (File No. 333-55652). The merger is expected to close during our second quarter ending April 30, 2001. Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended October 31, 2000. This discussion contains certain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, such as statements of our plans, objectives, expectations and intentions. Such risks are detailed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended October 31, 2000 and in our Registration Statement on Form S-4 filed with the SEC on February 14, 2001 and are incorporated herein by reference. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed here. We undertake no obligation to publicly release any revisions to these forward-looking statements that may be required to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. General We provide hardware and software-based data storage solutions to the open systems marketplace. Our storage solutions integrate into a wide range of rapidly evolving network computing environments and are designed to enable organizations to organize, protect and retrieve complex mission-critical data. We design, manufacture, sell and support specialized data storage hardware and software products and provide related services. Currently, we derive substantially all of our revenue from the sale of storage libraries and related service and support. As a result of our investments in software development, we expect sales of our proprietary software products to increase in the future. We distribute our products primarily through value-added resellers (VARs), and original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), and we also sell directly to large end users. Results of Operations Net Sales. Net sales increased during the first quarter of fiscal 2001 by 41% to $90.1 million from $63.9 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2000. The increase was due primarily to increased sales to our OEM customers. Revenue from OEM customers was 45% of total sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2001 as compared to 20% of total sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2000. The growth in OEM sales is a result of the first full quarter of sales to IBM as well as continued strong sales to other OEM customers. Gross Profit. Gross profit was $26.5 million or 29% of net sales for the three months ended January 31, 2001 compared to $22.9 million or 36% of net sales for the same period in fiscal 2000. The reduction in gross margin is generally a result of OEM sales representing a greater percentage of our total sales. Gross margin was also impacted by the sales mix. Over time we anticipate improvement in gross margin as our multi-product OEM relationships mature and our OEM sales mix shifts. 7 Selling and Administrative Expenses. Selling and administrative expenses were $12.7 million or 14% of net sales for the three months ended January 31, 2001 compared to $11.0 million or 17% of net sales for the same period in fiscal 2000. The percentage of selling and administrative expenses to net sales decreased in 2001 due to the increase in OEM sales, which generally have lower related sales and marketing costs than ADIC branded sales. The dollar increase is due to a combination of increased sales, marketing and administrative personnel, and marketing costs associated with our efforts to take advantage of new products and sales channels. Research and Development Expenses. Research and development expenses were $4.8 million or 5% of net sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2001 compared to $4.0 million or 6% of net sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2000. During the first quarter of fiscal 2001, approximately 30% of research and development spending was related to software-based products that may be incorporated into intelligent peripherals or sold separately. Approximately half of the research and development spending in the first quarter of fiscal 2000 was related to software-based products. We expect that research and development expenditures for the remainder of fiscal 2001 will increase both in absolute dollars and as a percentage of sales as a result of the merger with Pathlight. Other Income. Other income was $4.2 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2001 and $2.4 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2000. Other income primarily consists of interest income in both periods. The increase in fiscal 2001 over 2000 is related to a gain of $1.8 million on certain marketable equity securities transactions. Provision for Income Taxes. Income tax expense for the three months ended January 31, 2001 was $4.4 million, an effective tax rate of 34%. The effective tax rate includes taxes paid in various federal, state and international jurisdictions. This rate is comparable to the rate for our fiscal year ended October 31, 2000. Liquidity and Capital Resources Cash flows used in operating activities were $1.3 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2001. In the comparable period of fiscal 2000, cash of $2.6 million was provided by operating activities. In fiscal 2001, operating cash was primarily used to fund increases in inventories, and was offset by net income, depreciation, other allowances and growth in accounts payable. The increase in inventory during the quarter is primarily the result of the additional inventory requirements necessary to support our OEM customers, new ADIC branded product launches and our sales growth. In fiscal 2000, operating cash was provided by net income and growth in accounts payable and was offset by increases in accounts receivable and inventories. Cash flows used in investing activities were $2.6 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2001, and $462,000 for the first quarter of fiscal 2000. Both periods reflect investments in property, plant and equipment to support our growth. In fiscal 2001 and 2000, cash flows include proceeds from certain marketable equity securities transactions. Cash flows used in financing activities for the first quarter fiscal 2001 were $224,000, compared to $337,000 provided in the first quarter of fiscal 2000. During the first quarter of fiscal 2001, proceeds from the exercise of stock options were $719,000, while the first quarter of fiscal 2000 included proceeds of $1.4 million. Offsetting the above proceeds in both periods were certain payments of long-term and short-term debt. At January 31, 2001, our cash and cash equivalents totaled $181.5 million, down from $185.2 million at October 31, 2000. Our working capital, the difference between current assets and 8 current liabilities, was $275.0 million at January 31, 2001, with a ratio of current assets to current liabilities of 4.2 to 1. We believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents, available bank lines of credit, debt capacity and anticipated cash flow from our operating activities will be sufficient to fund our working capital and capital expenditure needs for at least the next 12 months. We do not anticipate that the Pathlight merger will have a significant effect on cash flow during the next 12 months. We may utilize cash to acquire or invest in businesses, products or technologies that we believe are strategic. We regularly evaluate other companies and technologies for possible acquisition by us. In addition, we have made and expect to continue to make substantial investments in companies with whom we have identified potential synergies. Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk Management We are exposed to various market risks, including changes in foreign currency rates and interest rates. We may enter into various derivative transactions to manage certain of these exposures. We do not hold or issue derivative instruments for trading purposes. The assets and liabilities of our non-U.S. subsidiaries have functional currencies other than the U.S. dollar and are translated into U.S. dollars at exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Income and expense items are translated at the average exchange rates prevailing during the period. A 10% depreciation in the U.S. dollar would result in an approximately $270,000 decrease in income before provision for income taxes for the first three months of fiscal 2001. At January 31, 2001, we had variable rate debt of approximately $4.7 million provided by German banks, and fixed rate debt of $1.3 million, also provided by a German bank. The fair value of such debt approximates the carrying amount on the consolidated balance sheets at January 31, 2001. We have entered into an interest rate swap agreement on the variable rate debt, which fixes the interest rate at 4.3% through November 2003. Interest on the fixed rate debt is 4.4%. 9 PART II - OTHER INFORMATION Item 1. Legal Proceedings. None Item 2. Changes in Securities. None Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities. None Item 4.
