Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notesrequired by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financialstatements.  In the opinion ofmanagement, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals)considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.  All intercompany balances and transactionshave been eliminated.  Operating resultsfor the six months ended June 30, 2010 are not necessarily indicative ofthe results that may be expected for any future periods or the year ending December 31,2010.

Liquidmetal Technologies, Inc. (“LiquidmetalTechnologies”) and its subsidiaries (collectively “the Company”) are in thebusiness of developing, manufacturing, and marketing products made fromamorphous alloys. Liquidmetal Technologies markets and sells Liquidmetal® alloyindustrial coatings and also manufactures, markets and sells products andcomponents from bulk Liquidmetal alloys that can be incorporated into thefinished goods of its customers across a variety of industries.   The Company also partners with third-partylicensees and distributors to develop and commercialize Liquidmetal alloyproducts.

 

The Company classifiesoperations into two reportable segments: Liquidmetal alloy industrial coatingsand bulk Liquidmetal alloys (see Note 10). Liquidmetal alloy industrialcoatings are used primarily as a protective coating for industrial machineryand equipment, such as drill pipes used by the oil drilling industry and boilertubes used by coal-burning power plants. Bulk Liquidmetal alloys includepotential market opportunities to manufacture and sell products and componentsfor electronic devices, medical devices, defense applications, and sportinggoods.  In addition, the bulk Liquidmetalalloys segment includes tooling and prototype sampling.  Furthermore, such alloys are used to generateresearch and development services revenue for developing uses related primarilyto defense and medical applications as well as potential license fees,royalties, and other compensation from strategic partnering transactions.

 

In July 2007, theCompany transferred substantially all of the assets of its Liquidmetal alloyindustrial coatings business to a newly formed, newly capitalized subsidiarynamed Liquidmetal Coatings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“LMC”),and LMC assumed substantially all of the assets and liabilities of the coatingsbusiness.  The transfer included thethermal spray coatings assets and liabilities acquired under a purchaseagreement with Foster Wheeler Energy Services in June 2007.  TheCompany holds a 69.25% ownership interest in LMC.  The results of operation of LMC areconsolidated and comprise our Liquidmetal alloy industrial coatings segment forfinancial reporting purposes.

Translation of Foreign Currency

 

The Company appliesFinancial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 830*, Foreign Currency,*for translating foreigncurrency into US dollars in our consolidation of the financialstatements.  Upon consolidation of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries intothe Company’s consolidated financial statements, any balances with thesubsidiaries denominated in the foreign currency are translated at the exchangerate at period-end. The financial statements of Liquidmetal Technologies Koreahave been translated based upon Korean Won as the functional currency.Liquidmetal Technologies Korea’s assets and liabilities were translated usingthe exchange rate at period end and income and expense items were translated atthe average exchange rate for the reporting period. The resulting translationadjustment was included in other comprehensive (loss) income.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In June 2009,the FASB issued and subsequently codified Accounting Standards Update No. 2009-16,Transfer and Servicing (Topic 860) — Accounting for Transfers of FinancialAssets (ASU 2009-16).  ASU 2009-16 removes the concept of aqualifying special-purpose entity (QSPE) from SFAS 140, “Accounting for Transfers and Servicing ofFinancial Assets and Extinguishment of Liabilities”,* *and removes the exception fromapplying FASB Interpretation 46R, “Consolidationof Variable Interest Entities”. This statement also clarifies therequirements for isolation and limitations on portions of financial assets thatare eligible for sale accounting. The Company is currently evaluating theimpact of adopting this standard on the consolidated financial statements.

 

In June 2009,the FASB issued and subsequently codified Accounting Standards Update No. 2009-17,Consolidations (Topic 810) — Improvements to Financial Reporting by EnterprisesInvolved with Variable Interest Entities (ASU 2009-17).  ASU 2009-17 requires an analysis to determinewhether a variable interest gives the entity a controlling financial interestin a variable interest entity. This statement requires an ongoing reassessmentand eliminates the quantitative approach previously required for determiningwhether an entity is the primary beneficiary. The Company does not expect amaterial effect from the adoption of this standard on our consolidatedfinancial statements.

 

In June 2009,the FASB issued SFAS 168, “TheFASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally AcceptedAccounting Principles — a replacement of FASB Statement No. 162,”which will be effective for us on June 30, 2010.  SFAS 168’sobjective is to establish the FASBAccounting Standards Codification as the source of authoritativenon-governmental accounting principles to be applied in the preparation offinancial statements in conformity with US GAAP. Although SFAS 168 does notchange GAAP, the adoption of SFAS 168 will impact our consolidated financialstatements since all future references to authoritative accounting literaturewill be in accordance with SFAS 168.

 

In January 2010, theFASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2010-06, *Improving Disclosures about Fair Values Measurements (Topic 820) — FairValue Measurements and Disclosures (ASU 2010-06)* to add additionaldisclosures for fair value measurements including the following: (1) amountstransferred in and out of Level 1 and 2 fair value measurements, which iseffective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15,2009 (“Part I”), and (2) activities in Level 3 fair valuemeasurements including purchases, sales, issuances and settlements, which iseffective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15,2010 (“Part II”). The Company adopted Part I of the revised guidancefor fair value measurements disclosures, which did not have a significanteffect on our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, as of thebeginning of fiscal 2010.

 

Otherrecent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB (including its EmergingIssues  Task Force), the AICPA and theSEC did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on ourcompany’s present or future consolidated financial statements.

Fairvalue is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset orpaid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or mostadvantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction betweenmarket participants on the measurement date. Entities are required to maximizethe use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs whenmeasuring fair value based upon the following fair value hierarchy:

 
| *Level 1 —* |   | Quoted  prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          |

| *Level 2 —* |   | Observable  inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or  liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs  that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for  substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; and |

Additionally, 8,138,352 ofpreviously issued warrants to purchase common shares held by holders of the January 2010Notes have been cancelled in the Transaction.

 

TheJanuary 2011 Notes are due January 3, 2011 and bear annual interestrate of 8% with interest payable in October and April in cash or, atthe Company’s option, in the form of additional notes (in which case theinterest rate will be 10%).

As of June 30, 2010, the Company hasaccrued dividends of $1.3 million included in accounts payable and otheraccrued expenses.  The dividendsare payable in cash or in kind by the issuance of the Company of additionalpreferred stock, only when and as declared by the Company’s Board of Directors.

 

TheSeries A-1 Preferred Stock, Series A-2 Preferred Stock, and January 2011Notes are convertible into the Company’s common stock at conversion price of $0.10, $0.22, and$0.60 per common share, respectively.  The Companyissued warrants to purchase 3,125,007 shares and 42,329,407 shares of theCompany’s common stock at an exercise of $0.60 and $0.50 per share to thebuyers of the January 2011 Notes and preferred stocks, respectively.

Inconnection with the Transaction, the Company and the Buyers entered into aRegistration Rights Agreement under which the Company is required, upon thewritten request of the holders of more than fifty percent (50%) of thesecurities underlying the January 2011 Notes, warrants, and preferredstocks, on or before 180 days after the closing of the Transaction, to file aregistration statement with the SEC covering the resale of the shares ofCompany’s common stock issuable pursuant to the January 2011 Notes, thewarrants and the preferred stocks and to use its best efforts to have theregistration declared effective at the earliest date (but in no event laterthan 60 days after filing if there is no SEC review of the registrationstatement, or 120 days if there is an SEC review).   The Company maybe required to pay liquidated damages as set forth in the Registration RightsAgreement, if the registration statement is not filed or does not becomeeffective on a timely basis.

 

Theredemption of the previously issued January 2010 Notes was treated as anextinguishment of debt in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force No. 96-19,“Debtors Accounting for a Modification or Exchange of Debt Instruments.”  The Transaction resulted in a $2,029 lossfrom extinguishment of debt, which consisted of write down of $503 other assetdeferred issue costs, $5,487 debt discount, $1,306 decrease in conversionfeature liability of the extinguished notes, $2,347 decrease in warrantliability from the warrants redeemed from holders of the January 2011Notes, and $308 write off of accrued fees.

 

In November 1,2009 and May 1, 2010, the Company issued $378 and $391, respectively, ofadditional January 2011 Notes for accrued interest due under the notes inlieu of cash payments.

 

Pursuant to Statement of Financial AccountingStandards No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and HedgingActivities,” EITF 00-19, “Accounting for Derivative Financial InstrumentsIndexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company’s Own Stock,” EITF 00-27, “Applicationof Issue No. 98-5 to Certain Convertible Instruments,” and EITF 05-2 “TheMeaning of ‘Conventional Convertible Debt Instrument’ in EITF Issue No. 00-19,”the original fair value of the embedded conversion feature of $3,367 have beenrecorded as conversion feature liability as the debt is considerednonconventional convertible debt. The original fair value was computed usingthe Black-Scholes model under the following assumptions: (1) expected lifeof 1.68 years; (2) volatility of 176%; (3) risk free interest of0.92% and dividend rate of 0%. In addition, the Company is required to report avalue of the conversion liability as a fair value and record the fluctuation tothe fair value of the conversion feature liability to current operations.

**11.****     ****Income (Loss) Per Common Share**

 

Basicearnings per share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing earnings (loss) attributableto common shareholders by the weighted average number of common sharesoutstanding for the periods. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution ofsecurities that could share in the earnings.

 

Optionsto purchase 4,304,126 shares of common stock at prices ranging from $0.09 to$15.00 per share were outstanding at June 30, 2010, but were not includedin the computation of diluted EPS for the same period as the inclusion wouldhave been antidilutive.  Warrants topurchase 58,225,839 shares of common stock with prices ranging from $0.50 to$1.14 per share outstanding at June 30, 2010, were not included in thecomputation of diluted EPS for the same period as the inclusion would have beenantidilutive. 13,781,248 shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of theCompany’s convertible notes with conversion prices of $0.60 per shareoutstanding at June 30, 2010 were not included in the computation ofdiluted EPS for the same period because the inclusion would have beenantidilutive.  Additionally, 89,560,523shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Company’s convertiblepreferred stocks with conversion prices ranging from $0.10 and $0.22 per shareoutstanding at June 30, 2010 were not included in the computation ofdiluted EPS for the same period because the inclusion would have beenantidilutive.

 

Pursuantto EITF 00-19, “Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, andPotentially Settled in, a Company’s Own Stock”, the Company is required toreport a value of the warrant as a fair value and record the fluctuation to thefair value of the warrant liability to current operations.  The change in the fair value of the warrantsresulted in gains of $1,053 and $2,838 for the three and six months ended June 30,2010, respectively, and gains of $6,249 and $6,123 for the three and six monthsended June 30, 2009, respectively. The fair value of warrants outstandingat June 30, 2010 of $1,137 was computed using the Black-Scholes model underthe following assumptions: (1) expected life of 0.88 to 4.33 years; (2) volatilityof 105%, (3) risk free interest of 0.32% to 1.79%, and dividend rate of0%.  The fair value of warrantsoutstanding at December 31, 2009 of $3,975 was computed using the Black-Scholesmodel under the following assumptions: (1) expected life of 0.45 to 4.83years; (2) volatility of 152%, (3) risk free interest of 0.20% to2.69%, and dividend rate of 0%.

In January 2007 and June 2007, the Company contributedadditional $217 and $86, respectively, into LSI as additional investment. The contribution did not change the Company’s 19.9% interest in LSI.

Wehave outstanding liens on assets by our South Korean subsidiary by various creditors for past-due tradepayables totaling $1,026, which are held by creditors in South Korea, as of June 30,2010.  We are currently working toresolve the matter with each creditor****byseeking a forbearance or compromise.  Ifwe cannot repay the amounts due or obtain forbearance or compromise, thecreditors may seek to foreclose on the Company’s assets located in Korea.  Such a foreclosure would have materialadverse effect on our operations, financial condition, and results ofoperations.

**Overview**

 

We are a materialstechnology company that develops and commercializes products made fromamorphous alloys.  Our Liquidmetal®family of alloys consists of a variety of coatings, powders, bulk alloys, andcomposites that utilize the advantages offered by amorphous alloytechnology.  We develop, manufacture, andsell products and components from bulk amorphous alloys that are incorporatedinto the finished goods of our customers, and we also market and sell amorphousalloy industrial coatings.  We alsopartner with third-party licensees and distributors to develop andcommercialize Liquidmetal alloy products. We have the exclusive right to develop, manufacture, and sell what webelieve are the only commercially viable bulk amorphous alloys.

 

Amorphousalloys are unique materials that are distinguished by their ability to retain arandom atomic structure when they solidify, in contrast to the crystallineatomic structure that forms in ordinary metals and alloys when they solidify.Liquidmetal alloys possess a combination of performance, processing, and costadvantages that we believe makes them preferable to other materials in avariety of applications. The amorphous atomic structure of our alloys enablesthem to overcome certain performance limitations caused by inherent weaknessesin crystalline atomic structures, thus facilitating performance and processingcharacteristics superior in many ways to those of their crystallinecounterparts. For example, our zirconium-titanium Liquidmetal alloys areapproximately 250% stronger than commonly used titanium alloys, such asTi-6Al-4V, but they have processing characteristics similar in many respects toplastics. We believe these advantages could result in Liquidmetal alloyssupplanting other incumbent materials in a wide variety of applications.Moreover, we believe these advantages will enable the introduction of entirelynew products and applications that are not possible or commercially viable withother materials.

 

Ourrevenues are derived from three principal operating segments: Liquidmetal alloyindustrial coatings, Liquidmetal coatings application, and bulk Liquidmetalalloy products.  Liquidmetal alloyindustrial coatings are used primarily as a protective coating for industrialmachinery and equipment, such as drill pipe used by the oil drilling industryand boiler tubes used in coal-burning power plants. Liquidmetal coatingsapplication is the service provided for applying Liquidmetal products as a protectivecoating.  Bulk Liquidmetal alloy segmentrevenue includes sales of parts or components of electronic devices, medicalproducts, and sports and leisure goods, tooling and prototype parts (includingdemonstration parts and test samples) for customers with products indevelopment, product licensing and arrangements, and research and developmentrevenue relating primarily to defense and medical applications.  We expect that these sources of revenue willcontinue to significantly change the character of our revenue mix.

 

The cost of sales for ourLiquidmetal coatings segment consists primarily of the costs of outsourcing ourmanufacturing to third parties. Consistent with our expectations, our cost ofsales has been increasing over historical results as we further build our bulkLiquidmetal alloy business. Although we plan to continue outsourcing themanufacturing of our coatings, we will internally manufacture many productsderived from our bulk Liquidmetal alloys.

Selling, general, andadministrative expenses currently consist primarily of salaries and relatedbenefits, stock-based compensation, travel, consulting and professional fees,depreciation and amortization, insurance, office and administrative expenses,and other expenses related to our operations.

 

Research and developmentexpenses represent salaries, related benefits expense, depreciation of researchequipment, consulting and contract services, expenses incurred for the designand testing of new processing methods, expenses for the development of sampleand prototype products, and other expenses related to the research anddevelopment of Liquidmetal alloys. Costs associated with research anddevelopment activities are expensed as incurred. We plan to enhance ourcompetitive position by improving our existing technologies and developingadvances in amorphous alloy technologies. We believe that our research anddevelopment efforts will focus on the discovery of new alloy compositions, thedevelopment of improved processing technology, and the identification of newapplications for our alloys.

 

On July 24, 2007, wetransferred substantially all of the assets of our Liquidmetal alloy industrialcoatings business to a newly formed, newly capitalized subsidiary namedLiquidmetal Coatings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“LMC”), andLMC assumed substantially all of the liabilities of the coatings business.   The transfer included the thermal spraycoatings assets and liabilities acquired under a purchase agreement with FosterWheeler Energy Services in June 2007. We hold a 69.25% ownership interest in LMC.  The results of operation of LMC are consolidatedand comprise our Liquidmetal alloy industrial coatings segment for financialreporting purposes.

 

The following discussion andanalysis of our financial condition and results of operations focuses on thehistorical results of our continuing operations.

 

**CriticalAccounting Policies and Estimates**

 

The preparation of condensedconsolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principlesgenerally accepted in the United States requires us to make estimates andassumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities anddisclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financialstatements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during thereporting period.  These estimates andassumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors thatare believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.  Actual results could differ materially fromthese estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

 

We believe that thefollowing accounting policies are the most critical to our condensedconsolidated financial statements since these policies require significantjudgment or involve complex estimates that are important to the portrayal ofour financial condition and operating results:

 

·      Exchange ratefluctuations

·      Warrantyaccrual

·      Allowance fordoubtful accounts

·      Inventories atlower of cost or net realizable value

·      Deferred taxassets

·      Valuation ofderivatives of warrants and embedded conversion features

 

Our Annual Report on Form 10-Kfor the year ended December 31, 2009, contains further discussions on ourcritical accounting policies and estimates.

 

**Results ofOperations**

 

Comparison of the threemonths ended June 30, 2010 and 2009

 

*Revenue.* Revenue decreased $1.3million to $2.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010 from$3.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009.  Thedecrease consisted of $1.6 million from the sales and prototyping of partsmanufacture from bulk Liquidmetal alloys to consumer electronic customers as aresult of decrease in demand in electronic castings applications, which wereoffset by an increase of $0.3 million from sales of our coating products.

**Liquidityand Capital Resources**

 

Ourcash used in operating activities was $1.8 million for the six months ended June 30,2010.  Our working capital deficit increased from $13.1 million at December 31,2009 to $17.2 million at June 30, 2010.  The working capital deficitincrease of $4.1 million was primarily attributable to decrease of inventoriesof $0.1 million, decrease of trade accounts receivables, net of allowance fordoubtful account, of $0.2 million and increase of long term debt, currentportion, of $5.0 million, offset by increase of cash and cash equivalents of$0.8 million, decrease of warrant liabilities of $2.8 million and decrease ofconversion feature liabilities of $0.4 million.

 

Ourcash used in investing activities was $0.2 million for the six months ended June 30,2010 for the acquisition of property and equipment and investments in patentsand trademarks.

 

Ourcash provided by financing activities was $3.3 million for the six months endedJune 30, 2010.  We paid net $4.9million in borrowings mainly for a revolving loan agreement executed in July 2007,which were offset by $8.2 million in borrowings mainly from additional termloan as payment for monthly accrued interest due, short term borrowings, andadditional term note.

 

OnMay 1, 2009, we completed a financing transaction (the “Transaction”)whereby aggregate cash of $2.5 million and principal and accrued interest of$20.6 million due under the previously issued 8% Convertible Subordinated Notesdue January 2010 (the “Prior Notes”) were exchanged for 500,000 shares ofconvertible Series A-1 Preferred Stock with an original issue price of$5.00 per share, 2,625,002 shares Series A-2 Preferred Stock with anoriginal issue price of $5.00 per share, and $7.5 million of new 8% SeniorSecured Convertible Subordinated Notes due January 2011 (the “ExchangeNotes”). Of the $2.5 million aggregate cash purchase price.  The Transaction was consummated pursuant to aSecurities Purchase and Exchange Agreement, dated May 1, 2009 (the “SecuritiesPurchase Agreement”), among the exchanging note holders and investors(collectively, the “Buyers”).  The Securities Purchase Agreement gives theBuyers option to subscribe for an additional 1,000,000 shares of Series A-1Preferred Stock at $5.00 per share at any time prior to six months from theclosing date (the “Series A-1 Option”).

TheExchange Notes are due January 3, 2011 and bear annual interest rate of 8%with interest payable in October and April in cash or, at our company’soption, in the form of additional notes (in which case the interest rate willbe 10%).  The preferred stocks accruecumulative dividends at an annual rate of 8%, which is payable semi-annually.Beginning on the second anniversary of the initial issuance, the dividend willincrease to 10%.  As of June 30, 2010, we have accrueddividends of $0.7 million included in accounts payable and other accruedexpenses.  The dividends are payable incash or in kind by the issuance of the company of additional preferred stock,only when and as declared by our Board of Directors.  On August 5, 2010, we repaid in full allprincipal and interest on the Exchange Notes in the amount of $8.2 million andall security interests on our assets securing such obligations were releasedand terminated.

 

TheSeries A-1 Preferred Stock, Series A-2 Preferred Stock, and ExchangeNotes are convertible into the company’s common stock at conversion price of $0.10, $0.22, and$0.60 per common share, respectively.  We issuedwarrants to purchase 3,125,007 shares and 42,329,407 shares of our company’scommon stock at an exercise of $0.60 and $0.50 per share to the buyers of theExchange Notes and preferred stocks, respectively.  The warrants will expire in January 2012.  The conversion prices and the number ofcommon stock issuable under the preferred stocks, Exchange Notes and warrantsare subject to adjustments for anti-dilution purposes.

 

OnMay 28, 2010, we issued $2.0 million of 13% Subordinated Promissory Note (“theJanuary 2011 Subordinated Note”) due on the earlier date of January 3,2011 or the date on which all outstanding amounts are due under the Company’s8% January 2011 Notes.  Followingthe due date, the interest on the January 2011 Subordinated Note shall be15%.  The January 2011 SubordinatedNote may be repaid in whole or in part at any time without penalty or premium,but is subordinate in right of payment to the January 2011 Notes and maynot be paid until after the January 2011 Notes are paid in full.  We may, at our sole discretion, elect to payall or any portion of the outstanding principal or accrued interest in cash orthe Company’s common stock or any combination thereof, at a value equal to thelower of $0.26 per share or the average market price per share for the 10previous trading days immediately prior to the date the payment is made. As acondition for the January 2011 Subordinated Note, Carlyle Liquid Holdings,LLC, a current stockholder of the Company granted the holder of the January 2011Subordinated Note a warrant to purchase up to 7,700,000 shares of the Company’scommon stock at a price equal to $0.26 per share, which warrant is exercisablefor a period of 90-days beginning on the date in which we repay the January 2011Subordinated Note in cash (if we repay in cash).  On August 5, 2010, we repaid in full allprincipal and interest on the January 2011 Subordinated Notes in theamount of $2.0 million.  In connectionwith the repayment, on August 10, 2010, we entered into a SubscriptionAgreement pursuant to which the Company issued 7,870,307 shares of the Company’scommon stock for an aggregate price of $2.0 million.

 

Additionally, we haveapproximately $0.3 million of principal and accrued interest outstanding as of June 30,2010, under the 8% unsecured subordinated notes (the “Bridge Notes”), whichwere due August 17, 2007. On August 5, 2010, we repaid in full allprincipal and interest on the Bridge Notes in the amount of $0.3 million.

 

We have $0.3 million of outstandingloan as of June 30, 2010 under a factoring, loan, and security agreementwith a financing company.  In June 2009,we received a formal notice of default from the financing company for repaymentof the outstanding loan balance and have entered into a settlement agreementwith the financing company whereby it agreed to repay approximately $100 eachmonth until the outstanding loans and accrued fees have been repaid.   As of June 30, 2010, we have not beenable to pay the $100 monthly payments. On August 5, 2010, we repaid in full all principal, interest andfees on the factoring loan in the amount of $0.3 million and all securityinterests on our assets securing such obligation was released and terminated.

 

Wehave outstanding liens on assets by our South Korean subsidiary by variouscreditors for past-due trade payables totaling $1,026 million, which are heldby creditors in South Korea, as of June 30, 2010.  We are currently working to resolve thematter with each creditor****by seeking aforbearance or compromise.  If we cannotrepay the amounts due or obtain forbearance or compromise, the creditors mayseek to foreclose on the Company’s assets located in Korea.  Such a foreclosure would have materialadverse effect on our operations, financial condition, and results ofoperations.

OnJune 26, 2006, we entered into a joint venture agreement with SAGA, SpA inPadova, Italy, (‘SAGA”) a specialist precision parts manufacturer. The joint venture is named Liquidmetal SAGA Italy, Srl (“LSI”).  We alsoentered into an exclusive manufacturing license agreement for the eyewearindustry with LSI.  Under the joint venture agreement, we have the optionto buy ownership interest in LSI, initially, of 19.9% to up to 50%.  In December 2006,we have purchased 19.9% interest in the joint venture.  In January 2007 and June 2007, wecontributed additional $0.2 million and $0.1 million, respectively, into LSI asadditional investment.  The contribution did not change our 19.9% interestin LSI.  Under the licensing agreement,at any time following 18 months after the effective date of the agreement, LSImay exercise its option to sell to us certain business assets includingmanufacturing equipment acquired under the joint venture.  During the fourth quarter of the year ended December 31,2009, we wrote-off its investment of $0.3 million in the joint venture due toslower than anticipated growth in the eyewear industry.  During 2009, 2008 and 2007, we recognizedrevenues of $0, $0 and $0.1 million, respectively, of Liquidmetal alloys soldto SAGA for use in the joint venture. There were no alloys sold to LSI during the six months ended June 30,2010.

**Item 3 —Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk**

 

We are exposed to variousmarket risks in conducting the business of the Company, and we anticipate thatthis exposure will increase as a result of our planned growth.  In an effort to mitigate losses associatedwith these risks, we may at times enter into derivative financial instruments,although we have not historically done so. These may take the form of forward sales contracts, option contracts,foreign currency exchange contracts, and interest rate swaps.  We have not, and do not intend to, engage inthe practice of trading derivative securities for profit.

 

*InterestRates.*  We are exposed to market risks relatingto changes in interest rates as our borrowings are subject to the volatility ofinterest rate risk.  Fluctuations ininterest rates may have a negative impact to any future borrowings.

 

*CommodityPrices. *We are exposed to price riskrelated to anticipated purchases of certain commodities used as raw materialsby our businesses, including titanium and zirconium.  Although we do not currently enter intocommodity future, forward, and option contracts to manage the fluctuations inprices of anticipated purchases, we may enter into such contacts in the futureas our business grows and as our purchases of these raw materials increase.

 

*ForeignExchange Rates.*  As a resultof our operation of a manufacturing facility in South Korea, a substantialportion of our costs will be denominated in the South Korean won.  Consequently, fluctuations in the exchangerates of the South Korean won to the U.S. dollar will affect our costs of goodssold and operating margins and could result in exchange losses.  Although we do not currently enter intoforeign exchange hedge transactions, we may do so in the future as our businessgrows.
