Explanatory Note

As previously disclosed in our Current Report on Form 8-K dated February 28, 2005, our Board of Directors, including our Audit Committee, determined to restate the Companys financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003, including the fourth quarter of 2003.  This annual report on Form 10-K/A is being filed for the purpose of amending our consolidated financial statements to record tax adjustments related to 2003.

We identified that we had understated our tax expense in the fourth quarter of 2003 by $2.8 million.  The additional income tax expense relates to U.S. taxation on income earned outside the U.S.  The primary reason for the restatement and the additional tax expense was a recent determination that the Companys financial statements did not properly reflect certain tax accruals which pertain primarily to U.S taxation on income earned outside of the U.S.

The
adjustments increase both income tax expense and income tax payable by $2.8
million at December 31, 2003.  As a result of the additional income tax
expense recorded, we reduce retained earnings and stockholders equity by
$2.8 million at December 31, 2003.  The impact of the restatement is a
decrease in net earnings of $2.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2003
from amounts previously reported and a decrease in reported basic and diluted
earnings per share of $0.06 for the year ended December 31, 2003.  These
tax adjustments do not have any impact on previously reported sales,
comparable sales or our compliance with material covenants under any financial
or contractual obligation.

This Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A (Form 10-K/A) to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003, initially filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) on March 12, 2004 (the Original Filing), is being filed to reflect restatements of (i) the Companys consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2003 and (ii) the Companys consolidated statement of income, stockholders equity and comprehensive income and cash flows for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003, and the notes related thereto. For a more detailed description of these restatements, see Note 2, Restatement of Financial Statements, to the accompanying audited consolidated financial statements and the section entitled Restatement in Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
in this Form 10-K/A.

For the
convenience of the reader, this Form 10-K/A sets forth the Original Filing in
its entirety. However, this Form 10-K/A only amends and restates Items 6, 7, 8,
9A of Part II and Item 15 of Part IV of the Original Filing, in each case,
solely as a result of, and to reflect the Restatement, and no other information
in the original filing is amended hereby. The foregoing items have not been
updated to reflect other events occurring after the Original Filing or to modify
or update those disclosures affected by subsequent events. In addition, pursuant
to the rules of the SEC, Item 15 of Part IV of the Original Filing has been
amended to contain the consent of our independent registered public accounting
firm and currently-dated certifications from our Chief Executive Officer and Acting
Chief Financial Officer, as required by Sections 302 and 906 of the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The consent of the independent registered public
accounting firm and the certifications of our Chief Executive Officer and Acting
Chief Financial Officer are attached to this Form 10-K/A as exhibits 23, 31.1,
31.2, 32.1 and 32.2 respectively.

Except for the foregoing amended information, this Form 10-K/A continues to describe conditions as of the date of the Original Filing, and we have not updated the disclosures contained herein to reflect events that occurred at a later date. Other events occurring after the filing of the Original Filing or other disclosures necessary to reflect subsequent events have been addressed in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarterly periods ended March 31, 2004, June 30, 2004 and September 30, 2004, which are on file with the SEC, and any reports filed with the SEC subsequent to the date of this filing.

These statements are based on the beliefs and assumptions of our management and on information currently available to our management.  Our actual results, performance and achievements may differ materially from the results, performance and achievements expressed or implied in such forward-looking statements.  For a discussion of some of the factors that might cause such a difference, see Item 1.  Business  Risk Factors.

ITEM 1.  BUSINESS

Macrovision Corporation, a Delaware corporation founded in 1983, develops and licenses copy protection, electronic licensing and rights management technologies.  Our customers include major Hollywood studios, independent video producers, hardware and software vendors, music labels, consumer electronic, PC and digital set-top box manufacturers and digital pay-per-view (PPV) and video-on-demand (VOD) network operators.  We provide content owners with the means to market, distribute, manage and protect video, software and audio content.

Our business originated in video copy protection, which continues to be the leading revenue generator for our Entertainment Technologies Group.  Our technology has been used to copy protect over four billion videocassettes worldwide since 1985 and over 2.7 billion DVDs worldwide since 1997.  Most Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) studios use our video copy protection technology to protect some or all movie releases on videocassette or DVD.  We believe that our technology is accepted as the de factoindustry standard for analog video copy protection.

Our Entertainment Technologies Group develops and licenses copy protection, authentication, and rights management technologies for music CDs.  We also offer CD/DVD-ROM copy protection and digital rights management (DRM) technologies to a variety of software publishers in the PC games, education, information publishing, and desktop applications software markets.

Our Software Technologies Group provides electronic license management (ELM) and electronic license distribution (ELD) solutions to hardware and software vendors and their enterprise customers.  International Data Corporation (IDC), the information technology market intelligence firm, has named Macrovision the clear leader in this field, with approximately 2,000 customers under maintenance.  In 2003, we announced a major new initiative and licensing model, FLEXnet, which establishes our ELM and ELD solutions as a platform and enables us to form alliances with many of the leading companies providing complementary solutions, including Intel, InstallShield, Open Channel Solutions, Platform Computing and others.  We expect to begin shipping FLEXnet in 2004.

Overall, we have built, and continue to add to, a large patent portfolio that helps differentiate our products and is important to our license driven business model.  We generate recurring revenues from a variety of sources by licensing the use of our patented technologies.  In our video copy protection business, we receive unit-based royalties for copy-protected videocassettes and DVDs and for set-top boxes and hard drive recorders that include our technologies.  We obtain transaction or use-based royalties from digital satellite/cable network operators for copy protected PPV movies, and up-front and annual license fees from DVD and set-top box hardware manufacturers, and digital satellite/cable network operators.  In our software businesses, we receive unit-based royalties on CD/DVD-ROMs, a combination of time-based licenses and perpetual licenses for our DRM and electronic license
management technologies, and recurring fees for maintenance.  For our music products we receive unit-based royalties for copy-protected music CDs.

We own or have rights to various copyrights, trademarks and trade names used in our business.  These include Macrovision®, Cactus Data Shield (CDS), Colorstripe, FLEXbill, Flex Certified, FLEXenabled, FLEXlm®, FLEXnet,, GLOBEtrotter®, GTlicensing, SafeAudio, SafeAuthenticate®, SafeCast®, SafeDisc®, SafeDVD, SafeScan, SAFESTREAM, SafeWrite, SAMsuite and  SOFTSUMMIT.

Industry Background

Consumers ability to make unauthorized copies of video, audio and software content has increased due to the proliferation of inexpensive, easy-to-use devices, such as VCRs, CD and DVD recorders, audio CD recorders (CD-Rs) and hard drive recorders that allow in-home copying of videocassettes, DVDs, digital PPV/VOD programs, CD/DVD-ROMs, desktop software, and audio CDs.  The industry shift towards digital media renders content and copyright owners increasingly vulnerable to unauthorized use of their content.  As technological advances facilitate digital copying using devices that are becoming more readily available at declining prices, motion picture studios, music labels and software games publishers have become more concerned with protecting their intellectual property.  Independent software vendors (ISVs) and systems vendors are similarly concerned about
unlicensed or illicit use of their application software, both in the enterprise environment (where license parameters may be ignored) and at home (where PC software may be copied and redistributed).

Content owners lose billions of dollars every year to casual copying and professional or bootleg piracy.  The latest data available from the MPAA estimates that the U.S. motion picture industry lost in excess of $3.5 billion in 2003 due to packaged media piracy.  In addition, the International Intellectual Property Alliance (IIPA) estimated that copyright piracy, not including Internet piracy, around the world inflicts $20-$22 billion in annual losses to the U.S. copyright industries.  This estimate also does not include losses arising from casual consumer copying or unauthorized use of entertainment and software programs.  This is the focus of our technologies.

Macrovision Business

We operate in two business groups, which are the Entertainment Technologies Group and the Software Technologies Group.

Entertainment Technologies Group

Our Entertainment Technologies Group derives its revenue from three product lines: Video, Music and PC Games Technology.

Video Technology

Motion picture studios wish to maximize the economic value from each feature film or other video program over its copyright life.  Adams Media Research reported that consumers spent more than $14.4 billion in 2003 to own movies, with DVD outselling VHS two to one in the United States.  Understanding & Solutions Ltd. projects a 24% annual increase in DVD unit sales to over 1.5 billion discs in 2004 in the United States and a 26% annual increase to over 2.2 billion discs in 2004 worldwide.  The rapid growth of the DVD format presents major revenue opportunities for the studios, as well as serious copy protection concerns.  Independent studies show that studios and video retailers lose VHS and DVD revenues when consumers make copies of movies, whether from home video or PPV or VOD releases.  Any household that owns a VCR or DVD recorder (DVD-R) device is capable of
making unauthorized high quality VHS or DVD copies directly from their DVD players or set-top boxes, unless programs are copy protected.

DVD-to-VHS Copy Protection.  DVD hardware and media became commercially available in the United States in 1997. According to the Digital Entertainment Group (DEG) and Consumer Electronics Association (CEA), as of the end of 2003, approximately 100 million DVD playback devices are in American homes, including stand-alone players, DVD-ROM drives and DVD-capable videogame consoles.  Most of these homes also have a VCR.  In addition, DVD/VCR combination units are becoming more popular.  Without effective copy protection, any VCR can, when combined with a DVD playback device, make VHS copies of a non-copy protected DVD.  These copies are almost equal in quality to professionally prerecorded videocassettes.  Virtually 100% of DVD playback devices sold and in use since the DVD format introduction to the market in 1997 in North America, Western Europe
and Japan are designed to output Macrovision copy-protected analog video if the device plays a Macrovision copy-protected original DVD disc.  Therefore, our copy protection technology can effectively inhibit DVD to VCR copying.

Recordable DVD Copy Protection.  DVD-video recorders that allow recording onto DVD recordable blank media, started selling to consumers in 2003, and sales of these DVD recorders reached approximately 5.0 million units worldwide in 2003.  According to estimates from IDC and Understanding and Solutions Ltd., DVD-video recorders sales should reach over 13.0 million units in 2004, with nearly 35% of such sales in the United States and 32% in Europe, the Middle East and Africa.  Our copy protection technology inhibits the duplication of DVDs using these new devices.  All DVD recording devices that we have tested to-date do not make a digital DVD copy from the analog video output of a compliant DVD playback device when playing a Macrovision copy-protected DVD disc.  Because almost all the installed DVD playback devices have only an analog output, our copy protection technology
inhibits DVD-R copying in addition to VCR copying.

3



VOD and PPV Copy Protection.  Digital PPV/VOD services enable consumers to purchase and view movies and other programming in their homes through cable or satellite systems.  Studios have realized the importance of copy protection in digital PPV/VOD networks because VHS and DVD-R recorders can be used to make high quality VHS and DVD copies from the source video signal.  Many of the studios have required digital PPV/VOD system operators to install copy protection capability in their digital set-top boxes.

Our technology enables consumers to view PPV/VOD programs but inhibits unauthorized copying or significantly distorts unauthorized copies of the program when copies are attempted by both DVD and VHS recording devices.  To date, our copy protection technology has been embedded in over 117 million digital set-top boxes worldwide, representing nearly 90% of total digital set-top boxes deployed.  Our technology is dormant until it is activated by system operators for specific PPV or VOD movies.  During the past four years, our video copy protection technology has been activated by PPV system operators in Western Europe and Japan.

VOD is an emerging service, with approximately 10 million U.S. households currently enabled to view VOD, and an estimated 30 million expected to be VOD ready by 2005.  We are working with several major MPAA studios and system operators to enable copy protection activation for VOD services in the U.S.

VHS Copy Protection. Even with the focus on digital media and growth in DVD, VCR sales remain strong as prices fall.  With continued shipments of VCR devices to the market, we believe that VCRs will remain a home copying threat to video content owners for many years to come.  Our copy protection technology still serves its original purpose of inhibiting VCR-to-VCR copying.

Music Technology

The music industry is at a digital crossroads.  Music industry unit (CD) sales have been falling approximately 10% year-over-year for the past four years, according to the International Federation of Phonographic Industries (IFPI).  The continued decline is attributed to the high penetration of personal computer-based CD-burners, proliferation of peer-to-peer file sharing services and the lack of commercially viable copy protection and DRM technologies.  Approximately 30% of recordings sold worldwide are reportedly illegal copies, resulting in an estimated $4.6 billion of lost industry sales in 2003 alone, according to IFPIs Music Piracy Report 2003.  In addition, peer-to-peer file sharing of music continues to be problematic.  IFPI estimates there were approximately 100 million infringing music files on traditional web and file transfer
protocol sites on the Internet and approximately 800 million unauthorized files on peer-to-peer networks at the end of 2003.

Consequently, the music industry is pursuing multiple initiatives to reverse the year-over-year sales declines, including CD copy protection and digital rights management technologies.  Since early 2000, music labels have expressed interest in technology that would prevent the copying of music CDs to a PC or CD-R device, or downloading from peer-to-peer networks.  We are developing and marketing technologies to address these needs.

PC Games Technology

With the proliferation of inexpensive high capacity CD-ROM burners, and the increase in broadband Internet connections to the home and small office, individual consumers now have ready means for unauthorized copying and distribution of desktop software on a broad scale.  In fact, unauthorized downloads of application and entertainment software frequently meet or exceed the volume of downloads of music from Internet file sharing services.  As a result, application software and interactive entertainment (primarily games) software companies are facing an unprecedented loss of revenues due to unauthorized consumer copying of CD/DVD-ROM software and unauthorized file sharing over the Internet.  Our SafeDisc technology addresses this problem.

Software Technologies Group

Our Software Technologies Group is focused on two main customer target groups: software and hardware manufacturers and enterprise end-users.

Software and Hardware Manufacturers

Software and hardware manufacturers need to package and protect their products using flexible methods to increase customer satisfaction and to maximize market penetration and profitability.  Hardware manufacturers include computer, telecom, datacom and other equipment manufacturers that incorporate substantial software modules in their products.  By offering their products in different forms and under different terms, manufacturers are able to put forward products that appeal to and make economic sense to different potential purchasers with varying needs and values.  For example, heavy users of a software product may wish to purchase a single copy for each user, medium users may wish to purchase floating licenses that can be shared as needed, and light users may wish to

4



pay based on actual usage.  Electronic licensing can enable manufacturers to create a single version of each of their products with which they can flexibly and dynamically offer the types of business models their customers desire.

Some individual consumers and organizations attempt to make unauthorized use of software and software-enabled hardware products.  Manufacturers attempt to discourage and prevent unauthorized use through means such as audits and, increasingly, electronic licensing.  Additionally, manufacturers use electronic licensing to help corporate users comply with the terms of their contracts and avoid inadvertent overusage.

IDC estimates that software publishers shipped over $189 billion of software in 2003, of which 52% had some form of associated electronic licensing.  Although many software publishers use their own, internally developed license management software, the leading publishers are increasingly recognizing that this is not their core competency and are opting to purchase third-party solutions, such as ourFLEXlm or SafeCast products.  In 2003, IDC reaffirmed its estimate that license management software would grow at almost twice the rate of the overall software market, and we believe that Macrovision is positioned to benefit from this market growth due to our current market leadership, installed base of customers and broad product set.

Enterprise End-Users

Larger organizations that purchase significant volumes of software want to optimize those purchases, ensuring that they purchase enough licenses to make their operations as productive as possible, and at the same time ensuring that they do not waste money by continuing to license unnecessary assets.  These enterprises seek reporting software that can provide detailed usage information to guide them in their purchase decisions.

Additionally, larger organizations that purchase significant volumes of software often have trouble complying with the purchase terms of their software.  They desire automated solutions that help them stay within the bounds of their purchased licenses, and allow them to flexibly expand those bounds as needed (for example, via usage-based overdraft capabilities).  Moreover, they seek management solutions that enable them to minimize the manual labor associated with managing large numbers of licenses and to maximize the reliability and availability of those licenses.

Macrovision Solutions

We develop and market a broad array of rights management and copy protection technologies for each of our business lines.  The rapid expansion of broadband Internet connections for consumers and small businesses may result in the adoption of new licensing and distribution models for our solutions.  We believe this has created a large market opportunity for our digital rights management and copy protection solutions.

Entertainment Technologies Group

Video Technology

Our video copy protection technologies allow consumers to view programming stored on prerecorded videocassettes and DVDs or transmitted as digital PPV or VOD programs via cable or satellite, but deter unauthorized consumer copying of such programming on both VCRs and recordable DVD devices.  Videocassettes and DVDs are encoded with our video copy protection signal as they are manufactured.  The unique patented aspects of our copy protection signal are transparent to an analog TV set, but are disruptive to the recording circuits of VCRs and act to turn off the recording operation of recordable DVD devices.  The result is that videocassettes and DVDs that are encoded with our copy protection signal will play normally on an analog TV set, but will cause generally unwatchable copies to be made on the vast majority of VCRs, and will shut down the analog-to-digital recording circuit of DVD
recording devices, which include DVD-R devices and personal computers.  Our patented technology takes advantage of the differences in TV signal processing circuits, VCR playback circuits, and VCR recording circuits without the need for the installation of any Macrovision components in VCR recording devices.  However, both VCRs and DVD recording devices do need to be manufactured in accordance with the guidelines of the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 with respect to responding to Macrovision or other broadly adopted copy protection technologies.

In the DVD and digital PPV markets, we have implemented an enhanced version of our video copy protection technology.  By utilizing another copy protection component, called Colorstripe, we have made it more difficult for a casual copier to defeat or circumvent our technology.  In these digital video applications, the copy protection is applied as part of an integrated circuit within the consumer device.  The copy protection circuits remain dormant until activated by data commands, which are either embedded in the DVD disc or sent along with the PPV movie transmission to the subscribers set-top box or hard drive recorder.  Our technology is licensed to 317 DVD manufacturers, 363 DVD authoring houses, 107 replication facilities, 237 VHS commercial duplication facilities, 111 digital set-top box and hard drive recorder manufacturers and 61 semiconductor component suppliers
worldwide.

Music Technology

We are actively involved in developing and marketing various technologies to meet the needs of emerging music delivery systems such as downloading and streaming via the Internet, as well as technologies to prevent the unauthorized copying of music CDs.  Our current products (CDS-100, CDS-200, and CDS-300) provide music labels with the following capabilities:

| |  | First session copy protection, which inhibits the   ability to copy music to a PC for subsequent redistribution on Internet based   file sharing services;                                                                                                                    
| | - | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| |  | Encrypted second session music files that can play   on the PC, as long as the CD is in the PC CD/DVD-ROM drive; and                                                                                                                                                          
| |  | DRM technology that enables the second session music   files to be copied to a personal computer hard disk and be managed/played via   Windows Media Player and controls (at the copyright owners option)   subsequent transfer to portable devices, CD-Rs, and the Internet.

The CDS-100 and CDS-200 solutions have been used on over 200 million music CDs worldwide through 2003.  Of the total number of copy protected CDs produced worldwide, approximately 60% were distributed in the Asia Pacific region (principally Japan), 35% in Western Europe, and 5% in North America, South America, and the rest of the world combined.  The CDS-300 product was released in January 2004 and currently is being tested by all the major music labels.  Combining technologies that are the subject of patents developed internally, patents acquired from Midbar Tech (1998) Ltd. in November 2002 and patents acquired from TTR Technologies, Inc. in May 2003, we believe that we are well positioned to develop and market unique solutions that meet the needs of the consumer, the artist, the publisher and the music label.

PC Games Technology

Our SafeDisc technology is designed to prevent the copying of CD/DVD-ROM computer software by encrypting executable files, embedding an authenticating digital signature and adding multi-layered anti-hacking software.  This is a proprietary software-based copy protection solution that does not require any changes to standard PC or CD/DVD-ROM hardware.  Because SafeDisc is designed to operate while the disc is in the CD/DVD-ROM drive, it is ideally suited to PC games and education software.  The technology is licensed directly to software publishers, and to mastering and replication facilities that embed our patented digital signature in a CD/DVD-ROM during the manufacturing process.  SafeDisc, introduced in September 1998, has been licensed to 122 replicators worldwide, and is estimated to have been used on more than 200 million CD ROMs.

Software Technologies Group

Software and Hardware Manufacturers

We provide a complete electronic license management solution, ranging from core software toolkits that software vendors incorporate into their products to enable flexible licensing, to back office license fulfillment servers, to end-user monitoring applications, and to worldwide professional services teams that help companies follow best practices and integrate the preceding offerings into various back office systems.  By incorporating our license management software into their products, manufacturers improve their ability to price efficiently, simplify product-marketing strategies (with offerings such as trial licenses, bundles and add-ons), reduce unpaid usage, and lower costs associated with product development, distribution, and delivery.

In 2003, we announced that our licensing products FLEXlm, GTlicensing and SafeCast would be combined, unified and extended into our new FLEXnet Publisher universal licensing platform, which will support these previous products in a backwards compatible mode.  Our FLEXnet Publisher Licensing and Security modules will enable software vendors to offer multiple licensing models and enforce compliance with license terms.  Our FLEXnet Publisher Utility Pricing module will provide usage data to software vendors from their participating customers.  This capability enables pay-per-use billing and can be used to automatically implement a new set of licensing policies (e.g., metered usage) that are more accurately matched to each customers needs.  Our FLEXnet Publisher Operations module will provide electronic license creation, distribution, and tracking for software
vendors, allowing vendors to ship and track electronic licenses online without direct human intervention.  The system can be integrated into back office systems such as those provided by Siebel and Oracle, completely automating the order fulfillment process.

Enterprise End-Users

Our SAMsuite offering is a software asset management solution, designed for end-user companies that purchase large amounts of software from third parties.  SAMsuite captures and analyzes software usage data to help users maximize their return on investment, and allocate related costs by project, department or user, and administers license servers over global networks.  In 2003, we developed a web-based software asset management solution called FLEXnet Manager.

Introduce New Product Applications and Technologies.  We intend to develop additional rights management solutions to sell to our extensive customer base.  We have committed significant resources to expand our technology base, to enhance our existing products, to introduce additional products and to participate in industry standard-setting efforts and organizations.  We intend to pursue opportunities for rights management, copy protection and enabling solutions in the following areas:

| |  | Improved authentication, compression, and encryption   technologies. 

Expand and Protect Patent Position.  We believe that our future success will depend on our ability to continue to introduce proprietary solutions for rights management and copy protection technologies that can be supplemented by enabling features that will incent consumers and users to pay for legitimate video, audio and software products, rather than trying to get them for free in an unauthorized fashion.  We have patented many of these proprietary solutions, and they underpin our strong competitive position and financial model.  We also have acquired key software rights management and copy protection patents.  We use patents to limit the proliferation of devices that circumvent our video copy protection technologies, and we have initiated legal action relating to infringement of these patents.  We intend to continue to obtain patents and to protect and defend our patented
technologies aggressively, including developing and obtaining patents covering a number of processes and devices that unauthorized parties could use to circumvent our DRM and copy protection technologies.

Continue To Make Strategic Acquisitions.  We intend to continue to expand our technology portfolio by pursuing licensing arrangements, joint ventures and strategic acquisitions of companies whose technologies or proprietary rights complement our rights management and copy protection technologies.

Technology Licensing, Sales and Marketing

Technology Licensing.  We license our portfolio of rights management and copy protection technologies.  We believe that content owners and software vendors utilize our solutions to secure their content or software and to ensure that their end-user customers pay them for the use of such content or software.  We receive royalties and recurring revenues as follows:

| |  | Video, music and PC games content owners typically   pay us a per-unit licensing fee for the right to use our proprietary copy   protection technologies for DVDs, videocassettes, music CDs and CD-ROM games;

We believe that our DVD copy protection technology is universally utilized as the analog-to-analog and analog-to-digital copy protection solution that satisfies the principles established by the DVD licensing and standards group, and has been tested and accepted for compatibility with TV sets by leading consumer electronics companies.  As of December 31, 2003, 317 companies that manufacture DVD players or DVD-ROM drives had signed agreements with us to incorporate our DVD copy protection technology into their hardware, including both Sony and Microsoft for their DVD-based game consoles PlayStation®2 and Xbox.

Our PPV/VOD copy protection technology is embedded in more than 117 million digital set-top boxes currently in use worldwide, which we believe represents approximately 90% of all digital set-top boxes.  We have licensed our copy protection technology for digital PPV/VOD to 89 set-top box and 22 PVR manufacturers, including:

| | Acer                               |  |  | Panasonic (MEI)

| | Pace Micro Technology              |  |   |                    

We have also authorized 61 semiconductor companies to incorporate our digital PPV/VOD and DVD copy protection technologies into their semiconductor and reference designs.  These companies generally pay us a one-time service fee to verify correct implementation of our video copy protection technology in digital-to-analog application specific integrated circuits (ASICs) that are embedded in digital set-top boxes and DVD hardware.  They are authorized to sell these Macrovision-capable ASICs to Macrovision-

licensed DVD hardware manufacturers and to Macrovision-licensed digital set-top box and hard drive recorder (sometimes referred to as digital video recorder) manufacturers.

Music Technology

CDS-100 and CDS-200 have been utilized on music CDs by all five major music labels (i.e., Universal, Warner, Sony, BMG, and EMI) in Europe and/or Japan, and by Avex, Pony Canyon and others in Japan.  The CDS processor, which our customers use to apply our copy protection technologies to their CDs, has been installed in 57 manufacturing plants worldwide, including plants in North America, Europe and Japan.  In January 2004, we introduced CDS-300, which is a dual session copy protection DRM solution that provides enhanced features for the PC.

PC Games Technology

Our copy protection technology for consumer software is used by leading software (primarily games) publishers, including the following:

Technology

Entertainment Technologies Group

Video Technology

Our technology was originally designed to prevent unauthorized copying of VHS and PPV/VOD programming to VCRs without impacting the original playback.  We expanded this to inhibit unauthorized DVD-to-VHS copying.  Industry groups have adapted our copy protection technology to prevent DVD-to-DVD copying as well.  The majority of the recently introduced PVRs, DVD/VCR combo units, DVD recorders and PVR/DVD-R combo units comply with the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act and, as a result, they recognize Macrovisions proprietary analog copy protection process and disable digital recording onto DVD discs.

Videocassette Copy Protection.  Our videocassette copy protection technology involves the patented technique of inserting a series of electronic pulses in and around the vertical blanking interval of a standard video signal.  The copy protection pulses are embedded electronically in the prerecorded content of the videocassettes in the process of videocassette manufacture.  Therefore, when the consumer plays a copy protected prerecorded videocassette, the picture is clean and crisp, but when the consumer plays an unauthorized copy of that same videocassette, the picture typically is very distorted and has substantially reduced entertainment value.  Our video copy protection technology is effective against most casual copying, but generally does not deter professional pirates who use professional duplication and video processing equipment.  Under the U.S. Digital Millennium
Copyright Act, all VCRs sold in the U.S. after May 2000 are required by law to respond to our copy protection technology.

DVD and Digital PPV/VOD Copy Protection.  The DVD and digital PPV/VOD versions of our video copy protection technologies employ both the electronic pulses used in videocassettes and a second patented copy protection process called Colorstripe.  Colorstripe affects the color playback circuit of a VCR causing colored horizontal stripes to appear in the picture of an unauthorized copy.  The combination of the two processes provides a higher level of effectiveness than that provided by either process alone.  In addition, Colorstripe is more effective against circumvention by most black box circumvention devices that were sold in the past.  Copy protection is implemented in DVD and digital PPV applications by embedding a copy protection signal generator integrated circuit within the DVD player or digital set-top box.  The integrated circuit is activated by
copy protection control codes, which are embedded into the DVD media or the PPV transmission.  Once the integrated circuit is activated, it adds the copy protection signal to the analog output of the DVD player or digital set-top box.  As with videocassette copy protection, consumers are able to see a clear picture on their television sets, but generally cannot make a usable videocassette copy on a VCR, and DVD recorders do not make DVD copies when they sense Macrovision copy protection signals at their analog inputs.

Music Technology

In the audio CD market, CDS-100 and CDS-200 first session copy protection technologies were developed to prevent consumer electronic device music files (standard, uncompressed music CD format) from being ripped by PCs.  Each of the several CDS-100 and CDS-200 first session copy protection functions (e.g., coding, hiding and timing) is covered by pending patent applications.

In January 2003, Microsoft officially announced its second session DRM system for the music industry, called Windows Media® Data Session Toolkit (WMDST).  In April 2003, we announced a non-exclusive joint development agreement with Microsoft to develop a dual session solution for our CDS product.  In January 2004, we shipped the CDS-300 product that combines our first session copy protection technology and second session DRM solution using the WMDST with a Macrovision user interface.  CDS-300 utilizes an authentication scheme based upon our SafeDisc product, which is covered by a patent and a pending patent application (for disc-based rights authentication).  This solution is designed to ensure that consumers can only transfer these second session music files to their personal computer and to Windows Media compatible portable devices
if they are in possession of an original copy protected CD.

PC Games Technology

Each CD/DVD-ROM published with the patented SafeDisc technology is premastered with encrypted executable files and contains authenticating instructions and a unique SafeDisc digital signature.  The digital signature, which prevents copying by CD recorders or transfer from a CD/DVD-ROM to a hard disc drive, is added to each original disc during the mastering/replication process.  SafeDisc is a unilateral copy protection solution, which means that all of the copy protection technology resides on the CD/DVD-ROM and nothing has to be added to or changed in the PC.  When a user inserts an original SafeDisc-protected disc in a CD/DVD-ROM drive, the authentication software reads the digital signature, allowing the program to be decrypted and run normally.  The digital signature and authentication process is transparent to the user.  If a consumer or pirate uses a CD recording
device or

11



professional mastering equipment to duplicate a CD/DVD-ROM and make an unauthorized copy, SafeDisc is designed to inhibit the transfer of the digital signature to the copy.  If someone attempts to use such an unauthorized copy, the digital signature cannot be found, decryption will not take place and the copy will not run.

SafeDisc also contains anti-hacking technology to prevent the compromise of its security features.  Because of our widespread penetration in the PC games market, hackers have targeted and cracked several versions of SafeDisc.  For us to continue to be successful in this market, we must continually stay a step ahead of the hacker community.  We have released new product versions approximately two to three times per year incorporating new anti-hacking features.

Software Technologies Group

Software and Hardware Manufacturers

Software and hardware vendors integrate FLEXlm and Safecast into their products to monitor or control a customers compliance with a products license terms.  Terms of the license are typically stored in an authenticated license file that resides either on the local computers disk or on a network-connected central server.  Compliance with those license rights is automatically monitored.  The software vendor may choose to block users from running a product if doing so violates or exceeds the license rights, or simply provide notification to the user or system administrator when product use has exceeded the customers license rights.  This allows customers to buy and sell software licenses using much more flexible license terms than traditional one-computer-one-license or site license approaches.  These terms may include floating licenses (where a
specific number of licenses are shared over a network), product suites (where several product licenses are combined to be licensed as a single product) and demo licenses (where a prospective customer has full functional use of a product, but the right to use expires on a specific date or after a specific number of uses).  With SafeCast, software vendors can enable users to activate previously unlicensed copies of the software over the Internet, or by typing in a series of digits read over the phone.  Electronic licensing can also record the use of licensed software into a transaction log, which is authenticated and encrypted so software vendors and customers can use this information as a basis for pay-per-use or other usage-based pricing or licensing.

Independent software vendors integrate flexible electronic licensing algorithms into their software rather than hard-coding license policies into their products.  This avoids the need to change a products source code and to support multiple releases when licensing terms change for a product.  Marketing, sales, support or order administration staff define licensing policies in the human readable text file, without the need for software engineers to make changes in software.  Software vendors can include information identifying the customer and other purchasing information as part of the license certificate.  This is done so that if the software and license were diverted to another company, an audit trail is left, making discovery of improper use of the license far more likely.

Enterprise End-Users

Macrovisions SAM software enables larger organizations to more effectively manage their licensed software, by providing interfaces to control licensed servers and set alerts to important licensing events.  Moreover, this software can read and interpret the usage transaction logs described in the preceding section, enabling customers to better manage their FLEXenabled software assets and to bill back software-related costs to different departments or projects in the company.

Research and Development

Our internal research and development efforts are focused on developing enhancements to existing products, new applications for our current technologies and new technologies related to our various rights management markets and copy protection products.  Our core competencies are in encrypted software, electronic license management and license delivery software, anti-hacking software, digital and analog video and audio engineering, copy protection engineering, watermarking and CD-ROM architecture.  We have acquired other companies and technologies to supplement our research and development expenditures.

In 2003, 2002 and 2001, our expenses for research and development were $17.2 million, $11.9 million and $9.3 million, respectively.

Intellectual Property Rights

Patents Issued & Pending.  We hold 87 U.S. patents and have 74 U.S. patent applications pending.  Of the issued or allowed patents, 48 relate to our copy protection technologies, 20 relate to video scrambling, 10 relate to audio scrambling, five relate to electronic license management and four relate to DRM technology (namely content usage control, tracking, and e-transactions).  Of the pending patent applications, seven relate to consumer software copy protection and 29 relate to audio copy protection.  The last of our

12



issued U.S. patents expires in 2019.  The last of our core group of analog copy protection patents expires in the year 2017.    We also have 652 foreign patents issued and 394 foreign patent applications pending in 40 countries.  Of the issued foreign patents, 524 relate to our copy protection technologies, 99 relate to video scrambling, 10 relate to audio scrambling, and 19 relate to electronic license management and DRM.

Circumvention Technology Patents.  Included in the patents related to our copy protection technologies are 15 U.S. and 102 foreign patents covering a number of processes and devices that unauthorized parties could use to circumvent our video copy protection technologies.  We have historically used these patents to limit the proliferation of devices intended to circumvent our video copy protection technologies.  We have initiated a number of patent infringement lawsuits against manufacturers and distributors of such devices.  See Legal Proceedings.

Competition

Entertainment Technologies Group

Video Technology

Our video copy protection technologies are proprietary and have broad U.S. and international patent coverage.  We believe that there are currently no significant analog video copy protection competitors.  We have the only analog copy protection scheme that has been widely deployed on commercial products that significantly distorts or inhibits copying by VHS VCRs, DVD recorders and hard drive recorders.  Currently, our video copy protection technology is embedded in nearly 100% of all DVD players and nearly 90% of digital set-top boxes worldwide.  While it is possible that a competitive video copy protection technology could be developed and deployed, we believe it would take years for the competitive technology to be tested and accepted by hardware manufacturers and ultimately to begin to be embedded into the consumer electronic devices.  By the time this would happen, it is
unlikely any other analog copy protection technology would displace our copy protection infrastructure and our extensive video copy protection ecosystem.

Our technology is designed to inhibit or prevent unauthorized consumer copying; it is not designed to prevent professional piracy.  We believe that our customers are very concerned with professional piracy of their video, audio and software products.  We believe that our customers need to address professional piracy presents a certain level of competition to our video copy protection business, to the extent that some content owners may decide to devote more of their resources to fighting professional video piracy instead of using our copy protection to deter unauthorized consumer copying.

In addition, with the increase in online movie and music distribution over the Internet, our video copy protection technologies that protect distribution through packaged media and digital PPV/VOD signals may be viewed by our customers as having reduced value, and other Internet-based digital content protection or DRM technologies may present significant competition to our video copy protection business, such as DRM offerings by Microsoft, RealNetworks and Sony.

Music Technology

We believe that there are a limited number of direct competitors in the audio copy protection and rights management market, including SunnComm, Sony, First4Internet and Settec, with Sony having substantially greater financial and other resources than we have.  To date, we believe we have a significant market share of the CDs produced worldwide to which audio CD copy protection has been applied.  In 2003, only 140 million music CDs out of a total of more than approximately 2.5 billion music CDs produced included copy protection technology from any supplier, including Macrovision.

In January 2003, Microsoft announced the release of its WMDST with a second session DRM solution that can to be deployed independently of our solutions.  The announcement included SunnComm as the first company to integrate a third party music CD copy protection technology with Microsofts WMDST.  We believe that SunnComm uses technology that is competitive with our CDS-100 and CDS-200 technologies.  It is possible that Microsoft may develop or acquire copy protection and rights management solutions that compete with our offerings.  We have a non-exclusive agreement with Microsoft to include their Windows Media Player and WMDST in our CDS products.

PC Games Technology

We believe that there are a limited number of competitors in our SafeDisc consumer software copy protection market, including Sony SecuROM (developed and marketed by Sonys DADC optical disk manufacturing subsidiary), StarForce Technologies, Settec and Smarte Solutions.

Software Technologies Group

Software Licensing

Our primary competition in the software licensing market currently comes from some of our independent software vendor customers and prospects who develop their own electronic license management solutions or electronic software distribution technology.  Other more traditional competitors include electronic licensing technology vendors such as XtreamLok and Softwrap, as well as companies that have historically offered hardware dongle products and supplemented them with software licensing offerings such as Rainbow and Aladdin.  Operating system developers such as Microsoft, IBM and Sun already integrate limited license management functionality into their products; potentially, they could expand this functionality, which could pose an increased competitive threat.  Similarly, microprocessor suppliers may choose to integrate rights management solutions into their products, and software resellers
could also begin to develop their own electronic license management solutions.

Enterprise End-User Software Asset Management

Macrovision provides software asset management solutions to end users for FLEXenabled applications only and is currently the only company authorized to interpret the FLEXlm usage log file.  We believe that there are currently no significant competitors in this particular software asset management area.   In the larger market of software asset management in general, products such as CA Unicenter and IBM Tivoli offer related and sometimes overlapping functionality.

Operations and Technical Support

We have technical support and certification operations to support our DVD manufacturer licensees, set-top box licensees, authorized semiconductor manufacturers, and our other hardware licensees.  We provide technical support and professional services to our independent software vendor customers and end users during pre-sale, implementation and maintenance phases of our contracts.

We provide technical support to our videocassette, DVD, music CD, digital PPV/VOD, PC games, electronic license management and consumer software customers in various ways:

Legislative and Regulatory Actions

A number of government and legislative initiatives have been enacted in recent years to encourage technologies that protect the rights and intellectual property of the content owners.

In the United States, Congress enacted the Digital Millennium Copyright Act in October 1998.  This law required all VCRs to comply with analog copy protection technologies that are in widespread use, such as those covered in our patents, beginning in May 2000.  The Digital Millennium Copyright Act includes a clause that outlaws all circumvention devices and technologies that could be used to defeat widely used copy protection technologies.  Based on our recent tests of new DVD recorder devices, we believe that manufacturers have designed them so they will not record analog input that is Macrovision copy-protected.  Hence, our technology prevents copying on both VCRs and DVD-R devices.  The U.S. law is based on a set of guidelines for amending basic copyright laws to deal with the protection of digital media.  The guidelines were adopted in 1996 by the World Intellectual
Property Organization, an agency of the United Nations.

Several countries in Europe have adopted a similar EU-wide copyright directive, which includes a provision aimed at controlling hardware and software circumvention devices and technologies.  Individual countries legislatures are currently discussing these new copyright initiatives.  The implementation of the Copyright Directive throughout Europe is continuing, with more countries enacting legislation.  To date, Austria, Denmark, Germany, Greece, Italy and UK have implemented the Copyright Directive.  The Directive brings into effect prohibitions on the manufacture, import, distribution, sale and marketing of circumvention devices and services.  Macrovision has already taken action under the newly enacted German and UK Copyright Acts and obtained injunctions against a number of retailers to stop sales of devices that circumvent Macrovisions technology.

In Japan, a revision to the Japanese copyright law went into effect in October 1999 prohibiting the sale, manufacture, and import of circumvention devices.  In addition, an industry directive that became effective in 1997 requires all digital recording devices to be responsive to analog copy protection technologies that utilize automatic gain control techniques, such as those covered by our patents.

Strategic Investments

Our strategic investments are generally in companies with complementary technologies and markets and are made on a selective basis when we feel it may broaden our market reach or technology portfolio.  The adjusted cost of our strategic investments as of December 31, 2003 was $27.0 million and consisted of investments in the following companies:

Digimarc Corporation (Nasdaq: DMRC).  In December 1997, we made our initial investment and signed a joint development agreement with Digimarc Corporation, a provider of patented digital watermarking technologies that allow digital code to be embedded in traditional and digital content, including movies, photographic images and documents such as financial instruments, passports and event tickets.  We made two subsequent investments in June 1999 and October 2000, for a total of $25.3 million.  Digimarc completed an initial public offering in December 1999.  As of December 31, 2003, we owned approximately 10.1% of Digimarc, which translated to a valuation of $26.8 million.   During 2002, we determined that the decline in value of Digimarc stock was other-than-temporary and took a charge to earnings of $1.8 million as a result.  There were no charges taken in
2003.

iVAST.  In June 2001, we invested $5.0 million to acquire an ownership interest in iVAST, a privately-held developer of MPEG-4 based solutions for the delivery of streaming multimedia.  As of December 31, 2003, we owned approximately 15.5% of the outstanding shares of iVAST.  During 2003, we determined that the decline in value of iVAST stock was other-than-temporary and took a charge to earnings of $4.8 million as a result.

In addition to the above investments, we have made and hold strategic investments in other companies that have been written down and have no recorded value as of December 31, 2003.

Our strategic investments represented 7.0%, 8.9% and 16.9% of our total assets as of December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively.  In total, we wrote off $4.8 million, $17.2 million and $6.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002, and 2001, respectively, related to impairments that were other-than-temporary, in an aggregate of eleven companies.  In the future, we may continue to evaluate and make minority investments in strategic investment opportunities.  We may never have an opportunity to realize a return on either current or future investments and may be required to write off all or part of these investments.

Employees

As of December 31, 2003, we had 349 full-time employees.  Of these employees, 150 are based outside of the United States.  We expect to hire additional employees in 2004, particularly in engineering, marketing, sales and support.  None of our employees is covered by a collective bargaining agreement or is represented by a labor union.  We have not experienced any organized work stoppages.  We believe that our future success will depend in part upon the continued service of our key employees and on our continued ability to hire and retain qualified personnel.  We may not be able to retain our key employees and may not be successful in attracting and retaining sufficient numbers of qualified personnel to conduct our business in the future, especially if Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) directives for stock option expensing cause us to decide not to offer
broad-based stock options.

RISK FACTORS

In addition to the other information contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, you should consider carefully the following risks.  If any of these risks occurs, our business, financial condition or operating results could be adversely affected.

Company Risks

The success of our business depends on the continued use by major movie studios of our video copy protection technology.

If major motion picture studios were to determine that the benefits of our technology do not justify the cost of licensing the technology, then demand for our technology would decline.  Historically, we derive a majority of our net revenues and operating income from fees for the application of our patented video copy protection technology to various video formats: prerecorded videocassettes, DVDs and digital pay-per-view or video-on-demand (PPV/VOD) programs.  These fees represented 63.3%, 63.1% and 63.0% of our net revenues during 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively.

Any future growth in revenues from these fees will depend on (a) growth in the various media formats, (b) increased use of our video copy protection technology on a larger number of videocassettes, DVDs or digital PPV/VOD programs, or (c) increases in usage fees or royalties.  To increase or maintain our market penetration, we must continue to persuade content owners that the cost of licensing the technology is outweighed by the increase in revenues that content owners and retailers gain as a result of using copy protection, such as revenues from additional sales of the copy protected material or subsequent revenues from other distribution channels.

The retail prices of DVDs are falling.  As retail prices drop, studios face increased pressure to trim operating expenses, which includes cutting back in their copy protection usage, as well as negotiated reductions in their usage fees.  Recently, diminishing margins that studios have been experiencing have contributed to a reduction in the prices we can charge them to include our video copy protection technology in their products.  As such, although we have not experienced a decline in total revenue, we have seen our usage fees decline over time.  Even though we have contracts with minimum annual volume commitments, it is possible for some studios to copy protect a smaller percentage of their titles and still achieve their minimum volume commitments.  In addition, some studios are reconsidering whether they want to continue to copy protect any of their titles or selected
categories of their titles, such as older catalog titles.

We have been successful historically in licensing our copy protection technologies to control unauthorized casual consumer copying.  Other content piracy sources include camcorders in movie theaters, peer-to-peer file sharing services and PC-based DVD copying software.  To the extent that our customers spend money to prevent or litigate against these other piracy sources, they may reduce spending on our technology.  Additionally, if our customers are unable to prevent their content from becoming available through these other piracy sources, they may consider our technology to be less valuable.  In either event, our business would be harmed.

Any decline in demand for our video copy protection technology, including a change of video copy protection policy by the major motion picture studios, or a decline in sales of prerecorded videocassettes and DVDs that are encoded with our video copy protection technology, or a material decline in our average unit royalties, would have a material adverse effect on our business.  If several of the motion picture studios withdraw their support for our copy protection technologies or otherwise determine not to copy protect a significant portion of prerecorded videocassettes, DVD or digital PPV/VOD programs, our business would be harmed.

Our operating results may fluctuate, which may adversely affect the price of our common stock.

Our quarterly and annual revenues, expenses and operating results could vary significantly in the future and period-to-period comparisons should not be relied upon as indications of future performance.  Due to limited visibility in predicting software licensing revenues and, particularly, revenues that are generated from perpetual licenses (under which license fee revenue is recognized upfront on a one-time basis), we may experience volatility in revenues which may cause us to not be able to sustain our level of net revenues, or our rate of revenue growth, on a quarterly or annual basis.  In addition, we may be required to delay or extend recognition of revenue on more complex licensing arrangements as required under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.  Fluctuations in our operating results may cause the price of our common stock to decline.

Further, we may not be in a position to anticipate a decline in revenues in any quarter until late in the quarter.  This is primarily due to the delay inherent in reporting from certain licensees and closing of new sales agreements, resulting in potential volatility in the price of our common stock.  Other factors that could affect our operating results include:

| |  | The timing of releases of popular movies on   videocassettes, DVDs or by digital PPV/VOD transmission;

| |  | The extent to which we are able to transition our   market leading position in optical media (i.e., packaged media) copy protection   and our experience in DRM to digital content distribution via the Internet.                                                                                   

We experience seasonality in our operating results, which may affect the price of our common stock.

Given the nature of the products that we offer, we have experienced significant seasonality in our business, and our business is likely to be affected by seasonality in the future.  We have typically experienced our highest revenues in the fourth quarter of each calendar year followed by lower revenues and operating income in the first quarter, and at times in subsequent quarters, of the next year.  We believe that this trend has been principally due to the tendency of our customers to release their more popular movies on videocassettes and DVDs during the year-end holiday shopping season.  We anticipate that revenues from consumer software copy protection and DRM technologies and from music copy protection will reflect this seasonal trend as well.  Our revenues generally have tended to be lower in the summer months, particularly in Europe.

We depend on a small number of key customers for a high percentage of our revenues and the loss of a significant customer could result in a substantial decline in our revenues and profits.

Our customer base and a majority of our net revenues is highly concentrated among a limited number of customers, primarily due to the fact that the MPAA studios dominate the motion picture industry and the loss of any one customer would have a significant adverse impact on our business.  Historically, we have derived the majority of our net revenues from a relatively small number of customers.  One customer accounted for 10.2% of our net revenues in 2003, one customer accounted for 11.4% of our net revenues in 2002 and no single customer accounted for more than 10% of our net revenues in 2001.  The MPAA studios as a group accounted for 36.0%, 42.2% and 33.2% of our net revenues in 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively.

We expect that revenues from the MPAA studios will continue to account for a substantial portion of our net revenues for the foreseeable future.  We have multi-year agreements with some of the major home video companies for copy protection of a substantial part of their videocassettes and/or DVDs in the U.S.  These agreements expire at various times from 2004 to 2005, and may or may not be renewed, or, if renewed, may be at substantially reduced per unit prices and on other terms less favorable to us than the existing agreements.  Changes in management, ownership or control of the MPAA studios could affect the renewal of their contracts with us.  The failure of any one of these customers to renew its contract or to enter into a new contract with us on terms that are favorable to us would likely result in a substantial decline in our net revenues and operating income, and our business
would be harmed.

We rely on third parties to properly apply our copy protection technology to content on behalf of our customers and to properly perform quality assurance testing with respect to such content and to accurately report the amount of units to which our technology is applied to the MPAA studios.  Any inaccurate reporting to the MPAA studios may result in a loss of revenue.

Our major customers may have a large influence on industry standards and the widespread adoption of new technologies.  The selection of alternative technologies to ours or to those on which our technologies operate would harm our business.

We depend on signing and in some cases completing high-value license agreements during the reporting period from major software customers for our FLEXlm Electronic License Management product and the inability to sign or complete these agreements could result in a decline or deferral of our revenues and profits.

Currently, a material portion of our FLEXlm Electronic License Management revenues are generated from perpetual licenses, under which license fee revenue is generally recognized up front on a one-time basis, combined with an annual maintenance fee.  Failure to close a small number of high-value perpetual licenses during any period could result in a decline in our revenues and profits.  We currently offer our customers the choice between a perpetual license and an annual (or time based) license, the latter of which results in ratable recognition of the license fee over the term of the license, which is generally 12 months.

Additionally, an increasing portion of our ELM revenues are generated from custom software development projects and recognized when the projects are completed.  We expect that as we pursue more ISV customers in the mainstream enterprise software market, we may engage in more custom software development projects, which may delay our revenue recognition by linking it to completion of software and formalized customer acceptance.

A significant portion of our revenues is derived from international sales.  Economic, political, regulatory and other risks associated with our international business could have an adverse effect on our operating results.

International and export sales together represented 42.2%, 34.2% and 45.2% of our video technology net revenues in 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively.  We expect that international and export sales will continue to represent a substantial portion of our net revenues for the foreseeable future.  Our future growth will depend to a large extent on worldwide acceptance and deployment of our copy protection and DRM solutions for music CDs, digital PPV networks, DVDs, and consumer software.  Worldwide adoption of our FLEXnet Publisher electronic license management technology will also be an important driver of future growth.

To the extent that foreign governments impose restrictions on importation of programming, technology or components from the U.S., the requirement for copy protection and rights management solutions in these markets could diminish.  In addition, the laws of some foreign countries may not protect our intellectual property rights to the same extent as do the laws of the U.S., which increases the risk of unauthorized use of our technologies and the ready availability or use of circumvention technologies.  Such laws also may not be conducive to copyright protection of digital content and software, which may make our copy protection technology less effective and reduce the demand for it.

Because we sell our products worldwide, our business is subject to the risks associated with conducting business internationally, including:

Our business could be materially adversely affected if foreign markets do not continue to develop, if we do not receive additional orders to supply our technologies or products for use in foreign prerecorded video, music, PPV and other applications requiring our copy protection solutions or if regulations governing our international businesses change.  For example, our products are eligible for export under the U.S. Export Administration Act and U.S. export regulations.  We have implemented a program to comply with these laws and regulations, but cannot guarantee that any particular product can be exported to any particular location at any particular time.  Any changes to the statute or the regulations with respect to export of encryption technologies could require us to redesign our products or technologies or prevent us from selling our products and licensing our technologies
internationally.

We may initiate patent infringement or patent interference actions or other litigation to protect our intellectual property, which could be costly and harm our business.

Litigation may be necessary in the future to enforce our patents and other intellectual property rights, to protect our trade secrets or to determine the validity and scope of the proprietary rights of others.  For a description of our current legal proceedings, see Legal Proceedings.

Litigation could harm our business and result in:

| |  | substantial settlement or related costs, including   indemnification of customers;
| | - | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| |   |                                                                                   
| |  | diversion of management and technical resources;                                  
| |   |                                                                                   
| |  | our discontinuing the use and sale of infringing   products;                      
| |   |                                                                                   
| |  | our expending significant resources to develop   non-infringing technology; and   
| |   |                                                                                   
| |  | our obtaining licenses to infringed technology.                                   

We, and many of our current and potential competitors, dedicate substantial resources to protection and enforcement of intellectual property rights, especially patents in the area of digital rights management technologies.  We believe that companies will continue to take steps to protect these technologies, including, but not limited to, seeking patent protection. As a result, disputes regarding the ownership of these technologies and the associated rights are likely to arise in the future and may be very costly.  Companies in the technology and content-related industries have frequently resorted to litigation regarding intellectual property rights. We may be forced to litigate to determine the validity and scope of other parties proprietary rights. Any such litigation could be very costly and could distract our management from focusing on operating our business.  The existence and/or
outcome of such litigation could harm our business.

We may be subject to intellectual property infringement claims or other litigation, which are costly to defend and could limit our ability to use certain technologies in the future.

From time to time we receive claims and inquiries from third parties alleging that our internally developed technology, technology we have acquired or technology we license from third parties may infringe other third parties proprietary rights, especially patents. Third parties have also asserted and most likely will continue to assert claims against us alleging infringement of copyrights, trademark rights or other proprietary rights, or alleging unfair competition or violations of privacy rights. We could be required to spend significant amounts of time and money to defend ourselves against such claims. If any of these claims were to prevail, we could be forced to pay damages, comply with injunctions, or stop distributing our products and services while we re-engineer them or seek licenses to necessary technology, which might not be available on reasonable terms or at all. We could also be subject
to claims for indemnification resulting from infringement claims made against our customers and strategic partners, which could increase our defense costs and potential damages. Any of these events could require us to change our business practices and harm our business.

We are entering into a new business for the protection and distribution of audio, video and software content on the Internet and P2P networks.  We believe that there is and will continue to be an increasing level of litigation to determine the applicability of current laws to, and impact of new technologies on, the use and distribution of content over the Internet and P2P networks and through new devices, especially as it relates to the music, motion picture and software industries.  P2P network providers and consumer activist groups have been very active in litigation against attempts to restrict the free use and distribution of content over the Internet and P2P networks.  As we develop products and services that protect, provide or enable the provision of content in such ways, the risk of litigation against us may increase.

Our success is heavily dependent upon our proprietary technologies.

We believe that our future success will depend on our ability to continue to introduce proprietary solutions for rights management and copy protection technologies that can be supplemented by enabling features that will incent consumers and users to pay for legitimate video, audio and software products, rather than trying to get them for free in an unauthorized fashion.  We rely on a combination of patent, trademark, copyright and trade secret laws, nondisclosure and other contractual provisions, and technical measures to protect our intellectual property rights.  Our patents, trademarks or copyrights may be challenged and invalidated or circumvented.  Our patents may not be of sufficient scope or strength or be issued in all countries where products incorporating our technologies can be sold.  The last of our core group of analog copy protection patents expire in the year 2017. 
In many cases, we have filed applications to expand our patent claims and for improvement patents to extend the current expiration dates, however, expiration of some of our patents may harm our business.  If we are not successful in protecting our intellectual property, our business would be harmed.

Others may develop technologies that are similar or superior to our technologies, duplicate our technologies or design around our patents.  A number of companies with extensive financial resources have developed intellectual property in the digital rights management field, including InterTrust, Philips, Sony, ContentGuard, IBM and Microsoft. Such competitive threats could harm our business.

Effective intellectual property protection may be unavailable or limited in some foreign countries.  Despite efforts to protect our proprietary rights, unauthorized parties may attempt to copy or otherwise use aspects of processes and devices that we regard as proprietary.  Policing unauthorized use of our proprietary information is difficult, and the steps we have taken may not prevent misappropriation of our technologies.

It may be time-consuming and costly to enforce our patents against devices and hacking techniques that attempt to circumvent our copy protection technology, and our failure to control them could harm our business.

We use our patents to limit the proliferation of devices intended to circumvent our video copy protection technologies.  In the past, we have initiated a number of patent infringement disputes against manufacturers and distributors of these devices and software.  In the event of an adverse ruling in such litigation, the value of our video protection technology may decline due to the legal availability of such a circumvention device, or we may have to obtain rights to the offending devices to protect the value of our technology.  The legal availability of circumvention devices could result in the increased proliferation of devices that defeat our copy protection technology and a decline in demand for our technologies, which could have a material adverse effect on our business.

A limited number of DVD manufacturers may build products that either do not contain our copy protection technology, or include features that allow consumers to bypass copy protection.  Although we believe this is in contravention of the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act, as well as the basic DVD CSS license, proliferation of these products could cause a decline in demand for our technologies, which could harm our business.

Any legal or other enforcement action that we may initiate could be time-consuming to pursue, involve costly litigation, divert managements attention from operations or may not be successful.  See Legal Proceedings.

In the consumer software copy protection segment, a number of individuals have developed and posted SafeDisc hacks on the Internet, or CD cloning software.  If we are not able to develop frequent SafeDisc software releases and new digital signatures, which deter the hackers from developing circumvention or cloning techniques, our customers could reduce their usage of our technology because it was compromised.  We expect to encounter similar challenges in the music copy protection business.

Legislative initiatives seeking to weaken copyright law or new governmental regulation and resulting legal uncertainties could harm our business.

Consumer rights advocates and other constituencies are challenging copyright law, notably the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998, through both legislative and judicial actions.  Legal uncertainties surrounding the application of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act may adversely affect our business.  If copyright law is compromised, or devices that can circumvent our technology are permitted by law and become prevalent, this could result in reduced demand for our technologies, and our business would be harmed.

Many laws and regulations are pending and may be adopted in the United States, individual states and local jurisdictions and other countries with respect to the Internet. These laws may relate to many areas that impact our business, including copyright and other intellectual property rights and digital rights management.  These types of regulations are likely to differ between countries and other political and geographic divisions.  Other countries and political organizations are likely to impose or favor more and different

21



regulation than that which has been proposed in the United States, thus furthering the complexity of regulations.  In addition, state and local governments may impose regulations in addition to, inconsistent with, or stricter than federal regulations.  Changes to or the interpretation of these laws could expose us to increased litigation risk, substantial defense costs and other liabilities.  It is not possible to predict whether or when such legislation may be adopted, and the adoption of such laws or regulations, and uncertainties associated with their validity, interpretation, applicability and enforcement, could materially and adversely affect our business.

We are exposed to risks associated with expanding our technology base through strategic acquisitions and investments.

We have expanded our technology base in the past through strategic acquisitions and investments in companies with complementary technologies or intellectual property and intend to do so in the future.  Acquisitions always hold special challenges in terms of successful integration of technologies, products and employees.  For companies we have acquired in the past and companies we acquire in the future, we may not be able to incorporate any acquired services, products or technologies with our existing operations, or integrate personnel from the acquired businesses, in which case our business could be harmed.

Negotiating or completing any potential future acquisitions, and integrating past and potential future assets and acquisitions, could cause significant diversions of management time and resources. Financing for future acquisitions may not be available on favorable terms, or at all. If we identify an appropriate acquisition candidate for any of our businesses, we may not be able to negotiate the terms of the acquisition successfully, finance the acquisition or integrate the acquired business, products, technologies or employees into our existing business and operations. Future acquisitions may not be well-received by the investment community, which may cause our stock price to fall. We have not entered into any agreements regarding any future acquisitions and cannot ensure that we will be able to identify or complete any acquisition in the future.

If we acquire businesses, new products or technologies in the future, we may be required to amortize significant amounts of identifiable intangible assets and we may record significant amounts of goodwill that will be subject to annual testing for impairment. We have in the past and may in the future be required to write off all or part of one or more of these investments that could harm our business.  If we consummate one or more significant future acquisitions in which the consideration consists of stock or other securities, our existing stockholders ownership could be significantly diluted. If we were to proceed with one or more significant future acquisitions in which the consideration included cash, we could be required to use a substantial portion of our available cash.  Acquisition activities could also cause operating margins to fall depending upon the financial modes of the
businesses acquired.

Our strategic investments may involve joint development, joint marketing, or entry into new business ventures, or new technology licensing.  Any joint development efforts may not result in the successful introduction of any new products by us or a third party, and any joint marketing efforts may not result in increased demand for our products.  Further, any current or future strategic acquisitions and investments by us may not allow us to enter and compete effectively in new markets or enhance our business in any current markets.

We currently hold minority equity interests in a number of companies, including Digimarc.  These strategic investments, totaling $27.0 million, represented 7.0% of our total assets as of December 31, 2003.  Other than Digimarc, our strategic investments are in privately held companies.  There is no active trading market for the securities of privately held companies and our investments in them are illiquid at best.  We have written off all but $180,000 of our investments in such privately held companies and we may never have an opportunity to realize any return on our investments in them.  Through December 31, 2001, we had invested an aggregate of $53.3 million in strategic investments.  Since December 31, 2001, we have not made any additional strategic investments.  During 2003, 2002 and 2001, we wrote off $4.8 million, $17.2 million and $6.9 million, respectively,
of strategic investments resulting from impairment that was other-than-temporary.

We must continue to provide satisfactory support and maintenance services to our electronic license management customers.

Our future success will depend on our ability to provide adequate software support and maintenance services to our independent software vendor electronic license management customers.  As they release new applications or modify their software to run on new platforms, it is important that their businesses not be disrupted as a result of inadequate support from us.  Failure to deliver such services could harm our business.

We depend on third parties to implement and support SafeDisc and some of our music copy protection software modules within their encoding and quality assurance equipment.

We rely on third party vendors such as DCA, Eclipse, Media Morphics and CD Associates to develop and incorporate software modules that will:

| |  | apply the SafeDisc digital signature and audio copy   protection and authentication generator at licensed replication facilities;   and
| | - | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| |   |                                                                                                                                        
| |  | allow replicators to run specialized quality   assurance tests to confirm the SafeDisc or audio protection technologies are   applied. 

Our operations could be disrupted if our relationships with third party vendors are disrupted or if their products are defective, not available or not accepted by licensed replicators.  This could result in a loss of customer orders and revenue.

The SafeDisc CD copy protection technology is available to approximately 120 of the worlds largest mastering and replication facilities worldwide, and is designed to be fully compatible with standard CD manufacturing processes.  Nevertheless, we rely on such third parties to properly apply the SafeDisc CD copy protection technology to content on behalf of our customers and to properly perform quality assurance testing with respect to such content.  Any improper application of the technology or improper quality assurance testing by such third party mastering and replication facilities may result in content that does not contain our copy protection technology or may result in other defects in the rights holders content, and may therefore, result in a loss of revenue or a claim against us by the content owner.

We must establish and maintain licensing relationships with companies other than content owners or software publishers to continue to build and support a worldwide copy protection ecosystem and to expand our business, and failure to do so could harm our business prospects.

Our future success will depend upon our ability to establish and maintain licensing relationships with companies in related business fields, including:

| |  | DVD and CD authoring facilities, mastering houses   and replicators;                    
| | - | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| |   |                                                                                         
| |  | DVD and CD authoring tools software companies and   replicator test equipment suppliers;
| |   |                                                                                         
| |  | DVD and CD hardware manufacturers;                                                      
| |   |                                                                                         
| |  | videocassette duplicators;                                                              
| |   |                                                                                         
| |  | international distributors of videocassettes;

| |  | semiconductor and equipment manufacturers;                                              
| |   |                                                                                         
| |  | operators of digital PPV and VOD networks;                                              
| |   |                                                                                         
| |  | consumer electronics and digital PPV/VOD set-top   hardware manufacturers; and          
| |   |                                                                                         
| |  | DRM suppliers, especially in the music business.                                        

Substantially all of our license agreements are non-exclusive, and therefore our licensees are free to enter into similar agreements with third parties, including our competitors.  Our licensees may develop or pursue alternative technologies either on their own or in collaboration with others, including our competitors.

Some of our third party license arrangements will require that we license others technologies and or integrate our solutions with others.  As an example, our customers will expect that our music copy protection, authentication, and controlled burning technologies will be integrated with various DRM solutions.  In addition, we rely on third parties to report usage and volume information to us.  Delays, errors or omissions in this information could harm our business.  If these third parties choose not to support integration efforts or delay the integration, our business could be harmed.

Our products could be susceptible to errors or defects that could result in lost revenues, liability or delayed or limited market acceptance.

We offer and develop a series of complex copy protection and digital rights management products, which we license to customers.  The performance of these products typically involves working with sophisticated software, computing and communications systems.  Due to the complexity of these products offered and developed, and despite our quality assurance testing, the products may contain undetected defects or errors that may affect the proper use or application of such products by the customer.  Any such defects

23



or errors in existing or new products, and any inability to meet customer expectations in a timely manner, could result in loss of revenue or market share, failure to achieve market acceptance, diversion of development resources, injury to our reputation, increased insurance costs and increased service, any of which could materially harm our business.

In addition, we rely on the customer and third party replicators to properly use our products to protect the software and applications to which the process may be applied.  Any improper use or application of the software by the customer or the third party replicators may render the process useless and result in losses from claims arising out of such improper use of the products.

Because customers rely on our products for copy protection and digital rights management of their software and applications, defects or errors in our products may discourage customers from purchasing our products.  These defects or errors could also result in product liability or warranty claims.  Although we attempt to reduce the risk of losses resulting from these claims through warranty disclaimers and limitation of liability clauses in our agreements, these contractual provisions may not be enforceable in every instance.  Furthermore, although we maintain errors and omissions insurance, this insurance may not adequately cover these claims.  If a court refused to enforce the liability-limiting provisions of our contracts for any reason, or if liabilities arose that were not contractually limited or adequately covered by insurance, our business could be materially
harmed.

In protecting copyrights and other intellectual property rights of our customers, our products affect consumer use of our customers products.  Consumers may view this negatively and discontinue or threaten to discontinue use of our customers products unless our customers stop using our technologies.  This may cause a decline in demand for our products or legal actions against us by our customers or consumers.

If use of the Internet for delivery of software does not increase as we anticipate, our business may suffer.

Some of our products are designed to support using the Internet to deliver, deploy, activate or pay for software or digital media.  The revenues we generate from these products depend on increased acceptance and use of the Internet as a medium of commerce, communications and delivery of software and digital media.  Acceptance and use of the Internet may not continue to develop at historical rates, and a sufficiently broad base of business customers may not adopt or continue to use the Internet to conduct their operations.  Demand and market acceptance for recently introduced services and products over the Internet are subject to a high level of uncertainty, and there are few proven services and products.  Our business could be seriously harmed if:

| |  | The necessary communication and computer network   technology underlying the Internet and other online service does not   effectively support any expansion that may occur;                                                                                                                                                         
| | - | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| |   |                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                     
| |  | New standards and protocols are not developed or   adopted in a timely manner; or                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   
| |   |                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                     
| |  | Concerns about security, reliability, cost, ease of   use, accessibility, quality of service, or other factors results in the   Internet not becoming established as a viable commercial marketplace,   inhibiting the development of electronic commerce and reducing the need for   and desirability of our products and services.

If use of the Internet for delivery of video and audio programming increases, our business may suffer.

Some of our products, such as video, audio and packaged software copy protection, are designed to be applied to packaged media, and we receive royalties based on the number of units produced.  If delivery of such products using the Internet were to increase, our revenues from packaged media may be adversely affected and not replaced by Internet-based revenues.  In this event, our business could be seriously harmed.

For our business to succeed, we need to attract and retain qualified employees and manage our employee base effectively.

Our success depends on our ability to hire and retain qualified employees and to manage our employee base effectively.  Because of the specialized nature of our business, our future success will depend upon our continuing ability to identify, attract, train and retain other highly skilled managerial, technical, sales and marketing personnel, particularly as we enter new markets.  Competition for people with the skills that we require is intense, particularly in the San Francisco Bay area where our headquarters are located, and the high cost of living in this area makes our recruiting and compensation costs higher.  In particular, due to the overall decline in technology market values and the resultant impact on our stock price, using stock options as a method to hire and retain employees may be less effective.  If we are unable to hire and retain qualified employees, our business and
operating results could be adversely affected.

Calamities or terrorist attacks in Silicon Valley, as well as the U.K. or other countries in which our offices are located could disrupt our business and adversely affect our operations.

24



Our headquarters office facilities in Santa Clara, California are in areas of seismic activity near active earthquake faults.  Any earthquake, fire or other calamity affecting our facilities may disrupt our business and substantially affect our operations.  A terrorist attack targeting Silicon Valley, as well as the U.K. or other countries in which our offices are located could disrupt our business and substantially affect our operations.

Our telephone and computer networks are subject to security and stability risks that could harm our business and reputation and expose us to litigation or liability.

Online business activities depend on the ability to transmit confidential information and licensed intellectual property securely over private and public networks. Any compromise of our ability to transmit such information and data securely or reliably, and any costs associated with preventing or eliminating such problems, could harm our business.  Online transmissions are subject to a number of security and stability risks, including:

| |  | our own or licensed encryption and authentication   technology, and access and security procedures, may be compromised, breached   or otherwise be insufficient to ensure the security of customer information   or intellectual property;                                                  
| | - | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  | we could experience unauthorized access, computer   viruses, system interference or destruction, denial of service attacks and   other disruptive problems, whether intentional or accidental, that may   inhibit or prevent access to our websites or use of our products and   services;
| |   |                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             
| |  | someone could circumvent our security measures and   misappropriate our, our partners or our customers proprietary information   or content or interrupt operations, or jeopardize our licensing arrangements,   which are contingent on our sustaining appropriate security protections; 
| |   |                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             
| |  | our computer systems could fail and lead to service   interruptions; or                                                                                                                                                                                                                     
| |   |                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             
| |  | our network of facilities may be affected by a   natural disaster, terrorist attack or other catastrophic events.                                                                                                                                                                           

The occurrence of any of these or similar events could damage our business, hurt our ability to distribute products and services and collect revenue, threaten the proprietary or confidential nature of our technology, harm our reputation, and expose us to litigation or liability. Because some of our technologies and businesses are intended to inhibit use of or restrict access to our customers intellectual property, we may become the target of hackers or other persons whose use of or access to our customers intellectual property is affected by our technologies.  We may be required to expend significant capital or other resources to protect against the threat of security breaches, hacker attacks or system malfunctions or to alleviate problems caused by such breaches, attacks or failures.

Industry Risks

If consumer reaction to music copy protection and digital rights management technologies is unfavorable, our revenue potential may be adversely affected.

It is possible that there could be significant consumer resistance to audio copy protection, as consumers may feel that copy protection degrades the sound quality of the original or that they are entitled to copy audio CDs, because no technology has been used in the past to prevent copying.  It is not clear whether the major music labels will deploy any copy protection solutions if there is sustained consumer resistance.  To date, we have seen limited acceptance of our technology in Europe and Japan.  The music labels have not moved to deploy the technology in the U.S. because they do not believe they have adequately tested the second session solution, nor are they completely satisfied with effectiveness and playability levels of the first session solution.  If the music labels conclude that shipping increasingly meaningful volumes of CDs that include our technologies generate
unacceptable consumer backlash, our revenue potential may be adversely affected.

There may be consumer resistance to the adoption of DRM technology in consumer software.  There was a significant media reaction in 2002 regarding the implementation of SafeCast by one of our customers, a major consumer software vendor.  This customer is now the defendant in a consumer class action lawsuit arising from its use of our SafeCast technology.  Consumer resistance to this technology or other of our technologies, further negative media coverage and legal actions against our customers and us may slow broad adoption of this technology or other of our technologies and harm our business.

We license technology for digital VOD and PPV copy protection, and if this market does not grow as anticipated or we are unable to serve this market effectively, our revenues may be adversely affected.

25



While our copy protection capability is embedded in more than 117 million digital set-top boxes manufactured by the leading digital set-top box manufacturers, only 20 system operators have activated copy protection for digital PPV programming.  Our ability to expand our markets in additional home entertainment venues such as digital PPV or VOD will depend in large part on the support of the major motion picture studios in advocating the incorporation and activation of copy protection technology in the hardware and network infrastructure required to distribute such video programming.  If the MPAA studios do not require copy protection activation for PPV or VOD movies, or if PPV/VOD system operators do not specify our copy protection in their set-top boxes, or if the system operators do not activate copy protection in other digital PPV networks outside of Japan, Hong Kong or the United Kingdom,
then our business may be harmed.

Further, consumers may react negatively to copy protected PPV or VOD programming because they may feel they are entitled to copy, having in the past routinely copied for later viewing analog cable and satellite-delivered subscription television and PPV programs, as well as free broadcast programming.  In addition, when incoming video signals are routed through a VCR before reaching a TV set, the consumer may see impaired pictures while viewing a copy protected digital PPV program.  If there is consumer dissatisfaction that cannot be managed, or if there are technical compatibility problems, our business could be harmed.

If we are unable to compete effectively with existing or new competitors, we could experience price reductions, fewer customers, reduced margins or loss of market share.

We believe that our DVD digital-to-analog copy protection and videocassette copy protection systems currently have no competitors.  It is possible, however, that competitive copy protection technologies could be developed in the future.  Increased competition would be likely to result in price reductions and loss of market share, either of which could harm our business.

In the video market, there are a variety of supplemental copy protection and encryption systems that provide partial copy protection for digital links (the DTLA 5C encryption technology); the 4C pre-recorded media and recordable media copy protection systems; CSS  a content scrambling system for the DVD format; the non-proprietary CGMS trigger bits; Intels High Definition Copy Protection (HDCP) encryption for both the Digital Display Working Groups Digital Video Interfaces (DVI) and DHMI Licensing, LLCs High Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI).  With the exception of CGMS, these systems are not directly competitive, as some apply to future products, but they are sometimes confused with our analog copy protection and may create uncertainty in the minds of customers  thereby reducing or delaying our licensing opportunities. 
Additionally, they may compete from the standpoint of content owners believing they have a limited budget for copy protection, and they may choose to spend their copy protection dollars on only a few technologies.

Our primary competition in the electronic license management market currently comes from independent software vendors who develop their own electronic license management solutions.  In the event that software vendors succeed with their internal developments, or forego the implementation of such applications, this would adversely affect our business.  Other more traditional competitors include companies offering digital rights management, electronic licensing, or electronic software distribution technology, as well as companies that have historically offered hardware dongle products and are shifting to software-based protection.  In addition, operating system developers or microprocessor suppliers may choose to integrate rights management solutions into their products.  Software resellers could also begin to develop their own electronic license management solutions.

There are a limited number of competitors in our SafeDisc consumer software copy protection market, including SecureRom Sonys DADC optical disk manufacturing subsidiary, and StarForce Technologies.  However, it is possible that our own customers may develop software copy protection technologies on their own, or that personal computer operating system and microprocessor companies may develop or license copy protection modules or systems that are internal to the PC or other consumer electronic devices.

In the consumer software DRM market, as in the enterprise software electronic license management market there is substantial competition from customer implemented internally developed solutions, as from small companies such as Australian company XtreamLok.

DRM solutions for consumer software, video, and audio have also attracted a number of companies and significant venture capital, including Intertrust Technologies (recently acquired by Sony and Philips), Microsoft, Content Guard, and Real Networks. It is possible that companies with extensive financial resources may develop or acquire copy protection and rights management solutions that compete with our offerings, or may have a controlling patent position which would negatively impact our cost basis, or may give away their DRM technologies as in the case of the Windows Media Player.

Several of our competitors in the audio copy protection and rights management market, including SunnComm, Sony, Settec and First4Internet have participated in early market trials with one or more major record labels.  New competitors or alliances among competitors may emerge and rapidly acquire significant market share in any of these areas.  Our competitors may be able to respond

26



more quickly to new or emerging technologies and changes in customer requirements than we do, which could reduce demand for our products or render them obsolete.

We entered the market for consumer software copy protection and rights management, and we do not know if our momentum will continue in selling our products in this market.

Both the markets for PC hardware and software publishers have experienced macroeconomic pressures over the last few years.  Unit sales of PCs have slowed; major PC suppliers have announced weaker financial results than expected.  Several PC software publishers have reported financial difficulties and experienced management and employee turnover.  In 2003, the volume of PC games declined while the volume of games sold for console platforms increased significantly. If economic conditions in this segment continue to be difficult, demand for our copy protection and rights management solutions (which is linked to the volume of PC games and consumer application software titles sold) could decline.  This would result in lower revenues and operating income for this line of business.

A number of competitors and potential competitors are developing CD-ROM copy protection and DRM solutions.  Several of these competitors and potential competitors have substantially greater name recognition and financial, technical and marketing resources than we do.  If these competitors provide superior or more cost-effective solutions, our business will be harmed.

We have entered the electronic license management market, and market conditions are different from the entertainment space.

Our Software Technologies Groups major product line is FLEXlm, an electronic license management software product that enables software vendors to offer multiple licensing models and enforce compliance with license terms.  There is no assurance of our ability to grow and be successful in this market and if we are unsuccessful in this market, our business would be harmed.

Major software vendors have experienced deteriorating economic conditions as corporate customers have reduced capital expenditures.  Demand for our ELM technology is driven, to some degree, by end-user demand for software applications.  If economic conditions for software vendors continue to be difficult, demand for our electronic license management technology could decline.  This would result in lower revenues and operating income for this line of business.

In some cases, customers make a substantial capital investment when purchasing our software and commit additional resources to installation and deployment.  Potential customers spend significant time and resources to determine which software to purchase.  Selling our products sometimes requires an extensive sales effort because the decision to adopt electronic licensing generally involves several customer executives in various functions and geographic areas.  Due to these factors, our sales cycle is unpredictable, and the number of sales and amount of revenue generated from such sales varies from quarter to quarter.

We have entered the market for music CD copy protection and rights management, and we do not know if we will be successful in selling our products in this market.

In November 2002, we acquired the assets of Midbar Tech (1998) Ltd. and in May 2003 we acquired certain assets of TTR Technologies, Inc.  These companies were engaged in music CD copy protection and rights management.  Midbar had been a primary player in the market and had licensed its technology to major record labels in Europe and Japan.  Patents we acquired from both Midbar and TTR cover first session copy protection and controlled burning  two technologies that we believe are fundamental to success in the music copy protection business.  A number of competitors and potential competitors may be developing similar or alternative music copy protection solutions, including Microsoft.  The solution we expect to market may not achieve or sustain market acceptance, or may not meet, or continue to meet, the demands of the music industry.

If the market for music CD copy protection fails to develop, or develops more slowly than expected, if our solution does not achieve or sustain market acceptance or if there is significant and sustained consumer resistance to this technology, our business would be harmed.

Our business may be affected by peer-to-peer services on the Internet.

Our business may be affected by free peer-to-peer services, such as KaZaA, Morpheus, Grokster and a variety of other similar services that allow computer users to connect with each other and to copy many types of program files, including music and other media, from one anothers hard drives, all without securing licenses from content providers.  The legal status of these free services is uncertain, because although some courts have found that these services violate copyright laws, other services have been found to not violate any copyright laws, particularly in the case of Grokster.  Additionally, enforcement efforts against those in violation have not effectively shut down these services, and there can be no assurance that these services will ever be shut down.  The ongoing presence of these free services substantially impairs the marketability of
legitimate services and of technologies that shut down other

27



unauthorized sources of the program file content, regardless of the ultimate resolution of their legal status.  To the extent that consumers choose to utilize these peer-to peer services and do not purchase licensed content, it may adversely affect our business.

Investment Risks

The price of our common stock may be volatile.

The market price of our common stock has been, and in the future could be, significantly affected by factors such as:

| |  | actual or anticipated fluctuations in operating   results;              
| | - | ------------------------------------------------------------------------
| |   |                                                                         
| |  | announcements of technical innovations;                                 
| |   |                                                                         
| |  | new products or new contracts;                                          
| |   |                                                                         
| |  | competitors or their customers;                                         
| |   |                                                                         
| |  | governmental regulatory and copyright action;                           
| |   |                                                                         
| |  | developments with respect to patents or proprietary   rights;           
| |   |                                                                         
| |  | changes in financial estimates or coverage by   securities analysts; and
| |   |                                                                         
| |  | general market conditions.                                              

Announcements by the MPAA or its members, satellite television operators, cable television operators or others regarding motion picture production or distribution, consumer electronics or software vendor companies business combinations, evolving industry standards, consumer rights activists wins in government regulations or the courts, or other developments could cause the market price of our common stock to fluctuate substantially.

In addition, even with the recent decline in the trading prices of the stocks of technology companies many of those companies continue to reflect price/earnings ratios above historical levels.  There can be no assurance that these trading prices and price/earnings ratios will be sustained.  In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a companys securities, some companies have been named in class action suits.

Further, the military conflict in Iraq, additional acts of terrorism and related political instability and economic uncertainty may adversely affect the global financial markets, which could cause the market price of our common stock to fluctuate substantially.

We utilize pro forma reporting in our quarterly earnings press releases.

We publish pro forma results in our quarterly earnings press releases along with a reconciliation of pro forma earnings to earnings compiled in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP).  Pro forma earnings are non-GAAP financial measurements.  The reconciling items have adjusted GAAP net income and GAAP earnings per share for certain non-cash, non-operating or non-recurring items and are described in detail in each such quarterly earnings press release.  We believe that this presentation may be useful to the investment community in analyzing the results of operations.  We have not included any such pro forma earnings or reconciliation to GAAP earnings in this annual report.  The market price of our stock may fluctuate based on future pro forma results.  However, we urge investors to carefully review the GAAP financial
information included as part of our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and our Annual Reports on Form 10-K that are filed with the SEC, as well as our quarterly earnings releases, and compare the GAAP financial information with the pro forma financial results disclosed in our quarterly earnings releases and investor calls, as well as in some of our other reports.  If we decide to curtail this pro forma presentation in our quarterly earnings press releases, the market price of our stock could be affected.

If proposed accounting regulations that require companies to expense stock options are adopted, our earnings will decrease and our stock price may decline.

We believe that employee stock options are an important element of total compensation.  A number of publicly-traded companies have recently announced that they will begin expensing stock option grants to employees. In addition, the FASB has indicated that possible rule changes requiring expensing of stock options may be adopted in the near future.  Currently, we account for employee stock-based compensation arrangements in accordance with the provisions of (i) Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25,

28



Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, (ii) FASB Interpretation No. 44 (FIN 44), Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation  an Interpretation of APB Opinion No. 25, and comply with the disclosure provisions of (iii) Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 123 (SFAS No. 123), Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.  If we continue to support broad-based employee stock option grants and there is a change in GAAP which requires employee stock-based compensation arrangements to be accounted for as period expense (in a manner different to APB No. 25 and FIN 44), the result may have a material, negative impact upon our future earnings.  This could cause the market price of our stock to be decline.  Alternatively, if we cut back on employee stock option grants, we may lose an important benefit that impacts the recruiting and retention of quality
employees, and our business could be harmed.

ITEM 2.  PROPERTIES

Our corporate headquarters consist of an 86,785 square foot building located in Santa Clara, California.  Most U.S. sales, marketing and technical personnel for all product divisions are in this location, with a small number of individuals operating out of their home offices.  The lease for the building expires on January 31, 2012, with the right to renew the lease for an additional five years.  As we continue to grow as a company, we may be required to seek additional office space in California in late 2004 or early 2005.

We have a leased sales office in Burlington and Wellesley, Massachusetts and Whitefish, Montana.  We also lease space for sales, marketing and technical staff in Maidenhead, Woodley and Cheshire in the United Kingdom and in Tokyo, Japan; Seoul, Korea; Hong Kong; Taipei, Taiwan; and Tel Aviv, Israel.

ITEM 3.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are involved in legal proceedings related to some of our intellectual property rights.

Globetrotter v. Rainbow Technologies, Elan & Ken Greer

In November 1997, Globetrotter filed a patent infringement lawsuit (Case No. C-98-20419-JF/EAI) in the Federal District Court for the Northern District of California against Elan Computer Group and its founder, Ken Greer, alleging infringement of one of its patents and unfair competition and trade practices.  In March 1998, Rainbow Technologies North America, Inc. entered into an agreement to purchase certain assets of Elan and entered into a litigation cooperation agreement with Elan regarding the pending Globetrotter litigation.  On or around September 1998, Globetrotter filed a patent infringement suit against Rainbow Technologies, which was subsequently consolidated with the action against Elan Computer Group and Ken Greer.  Rainbow Technologies and Ken Greer filed separate counterclaims against Globetrotter and its founder, Matthew Christiano, alleging antitrust violations, unfair
competition, tortious interference with business relations, and trade libel.  Rainbow Technologies and Ken Greer are seeking compensatory damages, punitive damages, injunctive relief, and disgorgement of profits.  On August 31, 2000, we acquired Globetrotter.

In 1999 and 2001, the Federal District Court granted the partial summary judgment motions for Rainbow et al that essentially dismissed the patent infringement case against Rainbow et al.  In 2002, we filed a series of summary judgment motions to dismiss some of the counterclaims from Rainbow et al.  The Federal District Court granted all of our motions for summary judgment in full and dismissed all of the claims against Globetrotter and Matt Christiano.

On December 9, 2002, Ken Greer and Elan filed a notice to appeal the summary judgment of all their counterclaims by Judge Fogel.  In response, on December 23, 2002, we filed a notice to appeal the summary judgment of all our patent infringement claims against Ken Greer, Elan and Rainbow.  On January 2, 2003, Rainbow filed a notice to appeal the summary judgment of all of its counterclaims.  On March 5, 2003, we entered into a stipulated agreement with Rainbow to dismiss all cross-appeals between Rainbow and us.  On March 31, 2003, Ken Greer and Elan filed an appeal brief to appeal the summary judgment of its counterclaims.  In the brief, Elan indicated it was abandoning its appeal of the summary judgment order.  This leaves only Ken Greers appeal and our cross-appeal.  We filed an appeal brief on May 12, 2003.  Both parties subsequently filed reply briefs in
July 2003.  An oral hearing took place in front of the court on December 3, 2003.  We expect a decision in the second quarter of 2004.

If an adverse ruling is ultimately reached on the remaining appeals and the case is returned to a trial court, significant monetary damages may be levied against us, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Macrovision Corporation v. ViTec Audio and Video GmbH

We initiated a patent infringement lawsuit in the District Court of Dusseldorf in March 1999 against ViTec Audio und Video GmbH, a German company that manufactures what we believe to be a video copy protection circumvention device.  ViTec filed a reply brief arguing that its product does not infringe our patents.  The case was heard in the District Court of Dusseldorf, Germany.  The District Court of Dusseldorf ruled adversely against us.  We appealed the District Courts ruling in July 2000 to the Court of Appeal in Dusseldorf.  A hearing took place in front of the Court of Appeal in Dusseldorf on August 23, 2001 in which the Court stated that because the appeal involves complex technical subject matter, the Court would require technical expert witnesses.  The Court selected Professor Dr. Ing. M. Plantholt as its expert witness.  On January 27, 2003, Professor
Plantholt submitted his technical opinion to the Court, and an English translation was made available to us on July 3, 2003.  We are reviewing the opinion and are considering our options.  A hearing before the Court of Appeal in Dusseldorf was scheduled for March 4, 2004, but was postponed by the Court.  The new date for the hearing will be rescheduled in late 2004.  In the event of an adverse ruling, we may incur a corresponding decline in demand for our video copy protection technology, which could harm our business in Germany.  In addition, we may be obligated to pay some of ViTecs attorney fees estimated to be $25,000.

Yield Dynamics, Inc. v. Macrovision Corporation and Globetrotter Software, Inc.

On October 17, 2002, Yield Dynamics, Inc. filed a federal court action in the Northern District of California against us and Globetrotter Software, Inc.  Yield Dynamics alleged that it created a software interface to allow its Genesis software product to work with our FLEXlm software and that we distributed this code without Yield Dynamics permission.  Yield Dynamics asserted claims of copyright infringement, trade secret misappropriation, common law unfair competition, and unfair competition under Californias Business and Professions Code.  The parties agreed to settle the matter, and on October 21, 2003, the parties filed with the court a joint stipulated request for the dismissal of the above action with prejudice.  The court entered the dismissal with prejudice on November 26, 2003.

USPTO Interference Proceedings Between Macrovision Corporation and InterTrust Technologies

We received notice on September 4, 2003 from the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) declaring an interference between our U.S. Patent No. 5,845,281 (the 281 patent) together with two of our continuation applications, and a patent application determined to be from InterTrust Technologies Corporation.  On December 19, 2003, we received notice from the USPTO declaring an additional interference between our two continuation applications related to the 281 patent and four issued U.S. patents from InterTrust.  The 281 patent and its continuation applications are in the field of digital rights management, and are not associated with our existing copy protection business.

An interference is declared by the USPTO when two or more parties claim the same patentable invention.  An interference proceeding will be held to determine the patentability of the involved patent and applications and who was the first inventor, since in the United States the first party to invent is granted the patent.  The 281 patent and its continuation applications have a priority filing date of February 1, 1995.  The InterTrust application is a continuation of application No. 08/388,107 (now abandoned) and as a consequence potentially has a priority filing date of February 13, 1995.  Because of the proximity of these priority filing dates, the interference proceeding by the USPTO will attempt to determine who invented first.  This proceeding is still in its initial stages, and is anticipated to take at least a year.

From time to time, we have been involved in other disputes and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business.  In managements opinion, none of these other disputes and legal actions is expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operation or cash flow.

As of December 31, 2003, it was not possible to estimate the liability, if any, in connection with these matters.  Accordingly, no accruals for these contingencies have been recorded.

Recent Development

Macrovision vs. 321 Studios LLC

On January 7, 2004, we initiated a lawsuit in the Southern District of New York against 321 Studios LLC, a producer of cloning software products, alleging that 321 Studios infringes our patented copy protection technology and also violates the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (DMCA).  We are currently seeking a preliminary injunction to bar 321 Studios from selling and marketing its products.  On February 13, 2004, 321 Studios filed responsive pleadings and counterclaims for declaratory relief challenging the validity and enforceability of our patents and the applicability of the DMCA.

The following commentary should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes contained elsewhere in this Form 10-K.  The discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties.  These statements relate to future events or our future financial performance.  In some cases, you can identify these forward-looking statements by terminology such as may, will, should, expect, plan, anticipate, believe, estimate, predict, potential, intend, or continue, and similar expressions.  These statements are only predictions.  Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of a variety of factors, including, but not
limited to, those set forth under Risk Factors and elsewhere in this Form 10-K.

The reorganization was done to improve customer focus, consolidate resources, and effect synergies in sales, marketing, customer support and research and development.  The Entertainment Technologies Group reflects the merger of the video technology and music technology product lines, along with the SafeDisc portion of our consumer software group.  The SafeDisc product line has been renamed PC games technology.  The Software Technologies Group reflects the merger of the Enterprise Software Licensing Management product line and the SafeCast product line that was also a part of our consumer software group.  SafeCast has been renamed Consumer Software Licensing Management.  We continue to report
separate revenue results for various product lines under the Entertainment Technologies Group (DVD, Videocassettes, PPV, Music and PC Games) and the Software Technologies Group (Enterprise Software Licensing Management and Consumer Software Licensing Management).  Revenues have been reclassified for prior periods to conform to the current period presentation.

Restatement

We have restated our consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2003, as discussed in Note 2 in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.  The following Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations has been revised to take into account the effects of the restatement.

Entertainment Technologies Group

Video Technology

Our customers include the home video divisions of member companies of the MPAA, videocassette duplication and DVD replication companies and a number of special interest content owners, such as independent producers of exercise, sports, educational, documentary and corporate video programs.  We typically receive per unit royalties based upon the number of copy-protected videocassettes or DVDs that are produced by MPAA studios or other content owners.  Royalties from MPAA studios represented 36.0%, 42.2% and 33.2% of our net revenues in 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively.

DVD Copy Protection.  Our customers for DVD copy protection have included member companies of the MPAA and special interest rights owners.  Our customers pay per unit royalties for DVD copy protection.  Additionally, we derive license fees from DVD hardware manufacturers.  DVD copy protection revenue represented 49.4%, 45.0% and 38.0% of our net revenues in 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively.  The increase in DVD copy protection revenue is due to the increase in numbers of DVDs sold and continued

36



strong demand for our DVD copy protection solution.  We expect our DVD copy protection revenue to continue to be a significant part of our net revenues as a result of continued growth in DVD sales, partially offset by anticipated future declines in our DVD copy protection average unit royalties and/or usage rates.

Videocassette Copy Protection.  In 2003, the trend of MPAA studios investing proportionally more in copy protecting their DVD titles compared to VHS releases has continued.  Videocassette copy protection revenues represented 4.6%, 7.4% and 11.6% of our net revenues in 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively.  We believe videocassette copy protection revenues will continue to decline as a percentage of our revenues and in absolute terms, as the studios continue to reduce their usage of, and the per unit royalties they are willing to pay for, videocassette copy protection.

PPV Copy Protection.  Our customers for digital PPV copy protection are satellite and cable system operators and equipment manufacturers that supply the satellite and cable industries.  We derive a majority of our digital PPV copy protection revenues from digital set-top box hardware royalties, and the balance from either up-front license fees or transaction royalties associated with copy protected PPV programming.  Digital PPV copy protection revenues were 9.3%, 10.7% and 13.4% of our net revenues in 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively.  Our agreements with digital PPV system operators entitle us to transaction-based royalty payments when copy protection for digital PPV programming is activated.  To date, such transaction-based royalty payments have not been significant.  The decrease in our PPV copy protection revenues is due to the continued weak digital cable and
digital satellite business on a worldwide basis.  We believe that revenues from PPV copy protection will remain flat or increase slightly in absolute terms and continue to decline as a percentage of our total revenues, because the rate of growth of digital subscriber service in many cable and satellite systems has slowed and some of our other business areas are expected to grow faster.

Music Technology

In November 2002, we acquired the assets and operations of Midbar Tech (1998) Ltd. (Midbar), a leading supplier of copy protection solutions for the music industry, for approximately $17.8 million in cash and related acquisition costs.  In addition, we have agreed to additional contingent consideration up to $8.0 million based on a percentage of revenues from sales of our music technology products through December 31, 2004.  In connection with the purchase, we recorded goodwill of $6.9 million and identifiable intangibles of $4.9 million in 2002.  In 2003, we recorded additional goodwill of approximately $1.2 million, which represents contingent consideration payments we are required to make to Midbar shareholders, as noted above, based on sales of our music technology products through December 31, 2003.

In connection with the acquisition of Midbar, we recorded a charge of $6.0 million for in-process research and development (IPRD) in the fourth quarter of 2002.  At the acquisition date, Midbars major in-process project was the development of CDS-300, BurnProtect, and BurnShield.  This technology had not yet reached technological feasibility. The technological feasibility of the in-process products is established when the enterprise has completed all planning, designing, coding and testing activities that are necessary to establish that the product can be produced to meet its design specifications. We obtained an independent appraisers valuation to determine the amounts allocated to purchased technology and in-process research and development.  The valuation analysis utilized the Income Approach based on discounted future cash flows.  This approach took into
consideration earnings remaining after deducting from cash flows related to the in-process technology the market rates of return on contributory assets including assembled workforce, customer accounts and existing technology.  The adjusted cash flows were then discounted to present value at appropriate rates determined by analysis of the risks associated with each of the identified intangible assets.  The weighted average discount rate used for IPRD was approximately 35%.  The resulting net cash flows to which the discount rate was applied are based on managements estimates of revenues, operating expenses, and income taxes from such acquired technology.

In May 2003, we acquired the patents and other assets of TTR for $5.1 million in cash and the surrender of 1,880,937 shares of TTR common stock that we originally purchased in January 2000.  We recorded a realized gain of $395,000 for the excess of the market value of such TTR stock on the closing date of the acquisition over the adjusted cost basis of such stock.  Our copy protection products in this area are used by customers for copy protection, authentication, and rights management for music CDs.

Revenues from our music technology products were 3.6% and 0.4% of our net revenues in 2003 and 2002, respectively.  Currently, substantially all of our music technology revenue is from international territories.  Additional product features, currently under development, may be required for the product to be accepted in the United States.  We believe that revenues from our music technology products will increase in absolute terms and as a percentage of our total revenues as more customers adopt our technology.

PC Games Technology

Customers implementing our CD-ROM copy protection technology, SafeDisc, are primarily major PC-based game publishers.  We typically receive unit royalties based upon the number of copy protected CD-ROMs that are produced by PC game publishers.  Our PC Games Technology revenues were 4.2%, 7.5% and 8.1% of our revenues in 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively.  The decrease

37



in our PC Games Technology revenue is primarily due to the increased competition, resulting in a reduction in volumes copy protected by us as well as declining per unit prices.  We believe that, as a result of competitive pressures, revenues from our PC Games Technology products will continue to decline both in total and as a percentage of our total revenues.

Software Technologies Group

Enterprise Software License Management

Our Enterprise Software License Management (ESLM) products generate revenue from licensing software and providing services related to the support and maintenance of this software.  Revenues from ESLM were 26.3%, 26.3% and 26.0% of our revenues in 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively.  Despite difficult economic conditions for enterprise software companies, our revenues, in absolute terms, have increased from $25.6 million in 2001 to $26.9 million in 2002 to $33.7 million in 2003.  We are investing in additional sales personnel for our ESLM products and believe that revenues from ESLM products will continue to increase in total and vary as a percentage of our total revenues.  While revenues have increased in each of the last three years, if economic conditions for software continue to be difficult or worsen, demand for our electronic license management technology could
decline.

Consumer Software License Management

Our Consumer Software License Management (CSLM) products facilitate web-based purchases and delivery and product activation of consumer-oriented software.  Our CSLM products generate revenue from licensing software and providing services related to the support and maintenance of this software.  CSLM revenues represented 2.5%, 2.4% and 0.8% of our net revenues in 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively.  The increase in CSLM revenues is due to the increased market adoption of these products.  We believe that revenues from our CSLM products will continue to be a relatively insignificant percentage of our total revenues.

Seasonality of Business

We have experienced significant seasonality in our business, and our consolidated financial condition and results of operations are likely to be affected by seasonality in the future.  We have typically experienced our highest revenues in the fourth quarter of each calendar year followed by lower revenues and operating income in the first quarter of the following year, and at times in subsequent quarters.  We believe that this trend has been principally due to the tendency of certain of our customers to manufacture and release new video, audio, and consumer software titles during the year-end holiday shopping season, while our operating expenses are incurred more evenly throughout the year.  In addition, revenues generally have tended to be lower in the summer months, particularly in Europe.

Costs and Expenses

Our cost of revenues consists primarily of service fees paid to licensed duplicators and replicators that produce videocassettes, DVDs, and CDs for content owners and costs of equipment used to apply our technology.  Also included in cost of revenues are software product support costs, direct labor and benefit costs of employees time spent on billable consulting or training, patent defense costs, amortization of licensed technologies, amortization of certain intangibles from acquisitions and patent amortization.  Our research and development expenses are comprised primarily of employee compensation and benefits, consulting and recruiting fees, tooling and supplies and an allocation of overhead and facilities costs.  Our selling and marketing expenses are comprised primarily of employee compensation and benefits, consulting and recruiting fees, travel, advertising and an allocation of
overhead and facilities costs.  Our general and administrative expenses are comprised primarily of employee compensation and benefits, consulting and recruiting fees, travel, professional fees and an allocation of overhead and facilities costs.

Critical Accounting Policies and Use of Estimates

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.  The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.  On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to revenue recognition, bad debts, investments, intangible assets and income taxes.  Our estimates are based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.  Actual results may differ from these estimates.

We have identified the accounting policies below as critical to our business operations and the understanding of our results of operations.

38



Revenue Recognition

Our revenue primarily consists of royalty fees on copy-protected products on a per unit basis, licenses for our copy protection technologies, licenses for our software products, and related maintenance and services revenues.

Royalty Revenues

Royalty revenue from the replication of videocassettes, DVDs, and CDs is recognized when realized or realizable and earned.  We rely on royalty reports from our customers and third parties as our basis for revenue recognition.  In our DVD, videocassette, and PC games product lines, we have established significant experience with certain customers to reasonably estimate current period volume for purposes of making an accurate revenue accrual.  Accordingly, royalty revenue from these customers is recognized as earned.  Revenue from our PPV and music technology products is recognized only as reported, due to the timing of receipt of reports in PPV, and the embryonic stage and volume volatility of the market for our music technology products.  Advanced royalty fees attributable to minimum copy quantities or shared revenues are deferred until earned.  In the case of agreements
with minimum guaranteed royalty payments with no specified volume, revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the life of the agreement.

Technology Licensing Revenues

Technology licensing revenue, which applies principally to DVD and PC sub-assembly manufacturers, digital PPV, cable and satellite system operators, and digital set-top decoder manufacturers, is recognized upon establishment of persuasive evidence of an arrangement, performance of all significant obligations and determination that collection of a fixed and determinable license fee is considered probable.

Software Licensing Revenues

We recognize revenue on our software products in accordance with SOP 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, as amended by SOP 98-9 Modification of SOP 97-2.  We recognize revenue when all of the following criteria are met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; delivery of the product has occurred; no significant obligations by us remain; the fee is fixed and determinable; and collectibility is probable.  We consider all arrangements with payment terms extending beyond six months not to be fixed or determinable and, accordingly, revenue is recognized as payments become due from the customer under such arrangements.  We assess collectibility based on a number of factors, including the customers past payment history and current creditworthiness.  If collectibility is not considered probable, revenue is recognized when the fee is collected from the
customer.

For license agreements in which non-standard customer acceptance clauses are a condition to earning the license fees, revenue is not recognized until acceptance occurs.  For arrangements containing multiple elements, such as software license fees, consulting services and maintenance, or multiple products and where vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value (VSOE) exists for all undelivered elements, we account for the delivered elements in accordance with the residual method. Under the residual method, the fair value of the undelivered elements is deferred and the remaining portion of the arrangement fee is recognized as revenue.  For arrangements containing multiple elements where VSOE does not exist for all undelivered elements, all revenue is deferred until such time as VSOE for all undelivered elements is evidenced or all elements of the arrangement have been
delivered, or if the only undelivered element is maintenance where VSOE exists, maintenance revenue is recognized pro rata over the maintenance contract period.  We also enter into term license agreements in which the license fee is recognized ratably over the term of the license period (generally one year).

When licenses are sold together with consulting and implementation services, license fees are recognized upon delivery of the product provided that (1) the above criteria have been met, (2) payment of the license fees is not dependent upon performance of the consulting and implementation services, and (3) the services are not essential to the functionality of the software.  For arrangements where services are essential to the functionality of the software, both the license and services revenue are recognized in accordance with the provisions of SOP 81-1, Accounting for Performance of Construction-Type and Certain Production-Type Contracts.  Arrangements that allow us to make reasonably dependable estimates relative to contract costs and the extent of progress toward completion are accounted for using the percentage-of-completion method.  Arrangements that do not allow us to
make reasonably dependable estimates of costs and progress are accounted for using the completed-contracts method.  Because the completed-contracts method precludes recognition of performance under the contract as the work progresses, it does not reflect current financial performance when the contract extends beyond one accounting period, and it therefore may result in uneven recognition of revenue and gross margin.

39



Professional Services Revenues

We provide consulting and training services to our customers.  Revenue from such services is generally recognized as the services are performed, except in instances where services are included in an arrangement accounted for under SOP 81-1.  Professional services revenues are included in services revenue in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Maintenance Revenues

Maintenance agreements generally call for us to provide technical support and unspecified software updates to customers.  Maintenance revenue is deferred and recognized ratably over the maintenance contract period (which is generally one year) and included in services revenue in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Valuation of Strategic Investments

As of December 31, 2003 and 2002, the adjusted cost of our strategic investments totaled $27.0 million and $28.7 million, respectively.  This included our investments in public and non-public companies.  Our investments in public and non-public companies are classified on the balance sheet as Long-term marketable investment securities and Other assets, respectively.

We review our investments in non-public companies and estimate the amount of any impairment incurred during the current period based on specific analysis of each investment, considering the activities of and events occurring at each of the underlying portfolio companies during the period.  For investments in public companies, we compare our basis in the investment to the average daily trading prices of the security over the prior six months to determine if an other-than-temporary impairment has occurred.  If the six-month average is less than the current cost basis, we record a charge to the statement of income for the difference between the market price at period end and the current cost basis.

For equity investments in non-public companies for which there is no market where their value is readily determinable, we review each investment for indicators of impairment on a regular basis based primarily on achievement of business plan objectives and current market conditions, among other factors.  The primary business plan objectives we consider include, among others, those related to financial performance such as liquidity, achievement of planned financial results or completion of capital raising activities, and those that are not primarily financial in nature such as the launching of technology or the hiring of key employees.  If it is determined that an other-than-temporary impairment has occurred with respect to an investment in a portfolio company, in the absence of quantitative valuation metrics, such as a recent financing round, management estimates the impairment and/or the net
realizable value of the portfolio investment based on a hypothetical liquidation at book value approach as of the reporting date.  Future adverse changes in market conditions or poor operating results of underlying investments could result in losses or an inability to recover the current carrying value of the investments thereby requiring further impairment charges in the future.

Based on these measurements, $4.8 million, $17.2 million and $6.9 million of other-than-temporary impairment losses from investments in non-public companies were recorded during the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively.  In 2003, the $4.8 million loss was partially offset by $395,000 of realized gains from the surrender of our stock in TTR resulting in a net impairment loss of $4.4 million (see Note 1 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.)

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Goodwill represents the excess of costs over fair value of assets of businesses acquired.  We account for goodwill under the provisions of SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.  Goodwill and intangible assets acquired in a purchase business combination and determined to have an indefinite useful life are not amortized, but instead are tested for impairment at least annually in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 142.  SFAS No. 142 also requires that intangible assets with estimable useful lives be amortized over their respective estimated useful lives to their estimated residual values, and reviewed for impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 144, Accounting for Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.

Goodwill and intangible assets not subject to amortization are tested annually for impairment, and are tested for impairment more frequently if events and circumstances indicate that the assets might be impaired.  In 2003 and 2002, there were no triggering events that required us to test for impairment prior to our annual impairment analysis.

In connection with our impairment analysis performed annually in our fourth quarter, we are required to perform an assessment of whether there is an indication that goodwill is impaired.  To accomplish this, we are required to determine the carrying value of each reporting unit by assigning the assets and liabilities, including the existing goodwill and intangible assets, to those reporting units.  To the extent the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, we would be required to perform the second step of the impairment analysis, as this is an indication that the reporting unit goodwill may be impaired.  In this step, we

40



compare the implied fair value of the reporting unit goodwill with the carrying amount of the reporting unit goodwill.  The implied fair value of goodwill is determined by allocating the fair value of the reporting unit to all of the assets (recognized and unrecognized) and liabilities of the reporting unit in a manner similar to a purchase price allocation, in accordance with SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations.  The residual fair value after this allocation is the implied fair value of the reporting unit goodwill.  To the extent the implied fair value of goodwill of each reporting is less than its carrying amount we would be required to recognize an impairment loss.  In October 2002 and October 2003, we completed our annual impairment analyses of goodwill.  Based on the results of the annual impairment analysis, we determined that no indicators of impairment existed for our reporting units and no impairment charges were
recorded for goodwill or other intangible assets as of December 31, 2002 and 2003.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

In accordance with SFAS No. 144, long-lived assets, such as property and equipment, and purchased intangibles subject to amortization, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset group may not be recoverable.  Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset group to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset group.  If the carrying amount of an asset group exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized in the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset group exceeds the fair value of the asset group.  Assets to be disposed of would be separately presented in the balance sheet and reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell, and would no longer be
depreciated.  The assets and liabilities of a disposal group classified as held for sale would be presented separately in the appropriate asset and liability sections of the balance sheet.  In 2003 and 2002, no impairment charges were recorded for long-lived assets.

Allowance For Doubtful Accounts

Management estimates the collectibility of our accounts receivable on an account-by-account basis.  We record an increase in the allowance for doubtful accounts when the prospect of collecting a specific account receivable becomes doubtful.  In addition, we establish a non-specific reserve, using a specified percentage of the outstanding balance of all such accounts based on historical bad debt loss experience.  Management specifically analyzes accounts receivable and historical bad debts experience, customer creditworthiness, current economic trends, international situations (such as currency devaluation), and changes in our customer payment history when evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts.  If the financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be
required.

Income Taxes

We account for income taxes using the asset and liability method.  As of December 31, 2003 and 2002, deferred tax assets net of valuation allowances, totaled $21.7 million and $18.7 million, respectively.  Deferred tax assets, related valuation allowances and deferred tax liabilities are determined separately by tax jurisdiction.  We believe sufficient uncertainty exists regarding our ability to realize our deferred tax assets in certain foreign jurisdictions and, accordingly, a valuation allowance has been established against the deferred tax assets in those jurisdictions.  We believe that it is more likely than not that the results of future operations will generate sufficient taxable income to utilize these deferred tax assets, net of valuation allowance.  While we have considered future taxable income and ongoing prudent and feasible tax planning strategies in assessing the
need for any valuation allowance, in the event we were to determine that we will be able to realize our deferred tax assets in the future in excess of the net recorded amount, an adjustment to the valuation allowance would increase income in the period such determination was made.  Likewise, should we determine that we would not be able to realize all or part of our net deferred tax assets in the future, an adjustment to the valuation allowance would be charged to income in the period such determination was made.  Our effective tax rate is directly affected by the relative proportions of domestic and international revenue and income before taxes, as well as the estimated level of annual pre-tax income.  We are also subject to changing tax laws or the interpretation of tax laws  in the multiple jurisdictions in which we operate.

Net Revenues.Our net revenues for 2003 increased 25.5% to $128.3 million from $102.3 million in 2002.  This increase is primarily driven by increased revenues in the video technology, ESLM and music technology product lines.  Videos DVD copy protection revenues increased $17.4 million or 37.9% to $63.4 million in 2003 from $46.0 million in 2002, due to the continued strong growth of the DVD format and continued high penetration among Hollywood studio customers.  This increase in DVD revenues was partially offset by continuing decreases in videocassette copy protection revenues.  Our DVD copy protection revenues in 2002 were also reduced by a $2.3 million refund resulting from a customers self-reporting errors detected in 2002, which revenue was previously recognized upon cash receipt.  During 2003, the increase in DVD copy protection revenues included
approximately $917,000 in revenue as a partial resolution of this customer reporting claim.  Revenues from videocassette copy protection decreased $1.7 million or 22.2% to $5.9 million in 2003 from $7.6 million in 2002, reflecting the continuing trend of Hollywood studios to discontinue copy protecting or more selectively copy protect their VHS releases.  Digital PPV copy protection revenues increased $942,000 or 8.6% to $11.9 million in 2003 from $11.0 million in 2002, due to slightly increased demand for digital set-top boxes and hard drive recorders and an increase in usage fees.  The increase in our music technology revenue is from products resulting from our acquisition of Midbar assets in November 2002 and from the increased market acceptance of our CDS-100 and CDS-200 products by the music labels. Revenues from ESLM increased $6. 9 million or 25.5% to $33.7 million in 2003 from $26.9 million in 2002, primarily due to an increase in licensing and maintenance volume.  Revenues
from our PC games technology product line decreased $2.3 million or 29.7% to $5.4 million in 2003 from $7.7 million in 2002 due to decreasing volumes and per unit pricing received from a number of customers.  Revenues from CSLM increased $749,000 or 30.3% due to the increased market acceptance of our CSLM technology by major software vendors.

License Revenues.  Our license revenues for 2003 increased by 24.9% compared to 2002 primarily due to increases in our revenues derived by our video technology products in the DVD copy protection area.  This was offset by decreases in our copy protection revenues for videocassettes.  We also had increases in license revenues from our Software Technologies Group.

Service Revenues.  Our service revenues for 2003 increased by 31.2% compared to 2002 primarily due to increases in maintenance revenues and, to a lesser extent, an increase in consulting revenues.

Cost of Revenues  License Fees.  Cost of revenues from license fees as a percentage of license revenues decreased to 4.3% for 2003 from 6.6% for 2002.  Cost of revenues from license fees decreased $1.1 million to $5.0 million in 2003 from $6.1 million in 2002.  This decrease was primarily due to decreased patent defense costs relating to the Rainbow litigation.  Cost of revenues includes items such as product costs, duplicator and replicator fees, video copy protection processor costs, patent amortization on internally developed patents, patent defense costs and licensing expenses.

Cost of Revenues  Service Fees.  Cost of revenues from service fees as a percentage of service revenues increased to 23.3% for 2003 from 18.5% for 2002.  Cost of revenues from service fees increased $1.2 million to $3.2 million in 2003 from $1.9 million in 2002.  This increase was primarily due to increased activity in our enterprise software consulting practice.  We anticipate our cost of revenues from service fees may increase in 2004 as we continue to increase activity in our consulting practice and seek to expand our customer base.

Cost of Revenues  Amortization of Intangibles from Acquisitions.  Cost of revenues from amortization of intangibles increased to $3.3 million in 2003 from $2.3 million in 2002.  The increase is primarily due to amortization of intangibles from the Midbar acquisition that was completed in November 2002.

We acquired the net assets of Midbar in November 2002 for approximately $17.8 million in cash.  In addition, we have agreed to an additional maximum payout of $8.0 million based on a percentage of the net revenues of the music technology division through December 31, 2004.  The transaction was accounted for as a purchase and approximately $4.9 million of the purchase price was allocated to existing technology, existing contracts, patents and trademarks. In addition, we recorded $6.9 million of goodwill from this transaction and recorded a $6.0 million charge in 2002 for purchased in-process research and development.  In 2003, we recorded additional goodwill of approximately $1.2 million for the contingent payment obligation based on sales of our music technology products through December 31, 2003.  We amortize intangibles, with the exception of goodwill, relating to the
acquisition of net assets of Midbar on a straight-line basis over three to five years based on the expected useful lives of existing technology, existing contracts, patents and trademarks.

In August 2003, we acquired intellectual property and other assets, including patents and software that can be used to track and manage content in the peer-to-peer file sharing space.  We paid $720,000 in cash, $80,000 of acquisition costs and an additional payment of $80,000 will be due on the first anniversary of the closing date for a total purchase price of $880,000.  In addition, we have agreed to a maximum payment of $140,000 if certain milestones are achieved by May 28, 2004.  The purchase price was allocated to in-process research and development, core technology and employment agreements.  The in-process research and development of $624,000 was expensed in 2003, and the balance of the purchase price has been allocated among the other intangible assets and is being amortized on a straight-line basis over two to six years based on the expected useful lives of the
intangibles.

Research and Development.Research and development expenses increased by $5.3 million or 44.9% to $17.2 million in 2003 from $11.9 million in 2002.  The increase is primarily due to increased research and development activities for our video technology, music technology and ESLM product lines.  Research and development expenses increased as a percentage of net revenues to 13.4% in 2003 from 11.6% in 2002.  We expect research and development expenses to increase in absolute terms and as a percentage of revenues over the prior year periods as a result of expected increases in research and development activity as we develop new technologies in our entertainment and software technologies groups.

Selling and Marketing.Selling and marketing expenses increased by $6.3 million or 30.3% to $27.0 million in 2003 from $20.7 million in 2002.  This increase was primarily due to increased business development activities for our enterprise licensing and music technology product lines and increased commission costs associated with higher revenue levels.  Selling and marketing expenses increased as a percentage of net revenues to 21.0% in 2003 from 20.3% in 2002.  Selling and marketing expenses are expected to increase in absolute terms as we continue to expand our efforts in selling and marketing our ESLM, music technology, PC Games and other digital rights management products.  We expect our selling and marketing expenses to increase in absolute terms and as a percentage of revenues over the prior year periods as we continue to invest in additional sales personnel for
our ESLM products.

General and Administrative.  General and administrative expenses increased by $4.4 million or 28.9% to $19.4 million in 2003 from $15.0 million in 2002, primarily due to higher compensation expense, increased headcount and increased costs associated with the compliance with Sarbanes-Oxley requirements.  General and administrative expenses increased as a percentage of net revenues to 15.1% in 2003 from 14.7% in 2002.  We expect our general and administrative expenses to increase in absolute terms in the near future as we continue to support the expansion of our business and comply with the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

Amortization of Intangibles from Acquisitions.  Amortization of intangibles from acquisitions, other than those included in cost of revenues, decreased from $273,000 in 2002 to $0 in 2003 as the covenant not to compete in connection with the purchase of PtS was fully amortized during 2002.  There was no amortization of intangibles from acquisitions in operating expenses during 2003.

Amortization of Deferred Stock-Based Compensation.In connection with the acquisition of Globetrotter in 2000, approximately 783,742 Globetrotter employee stock options were exchanged for Macrovision stock options, resulting in a deferred stock-based compensation charge of approximately $37.9 million.  The amortization of the deferred stock-based compensation for 2003 and 2002 was $2.7 million and $6.3 million, respectively.  The expense associated with amortization of this stock-based compensation will end in the first quarter of 2004.

In-process research and development.  In connection with the acquisition of intellectual property and other assets in the peer-to-peer file sharing space in August 2003, $624,000 was charged to in-process research and development in 2003.  In connection with the acquisition of Midbar in November 2002, $6.0 million was charged to in-process research and development in 2002.

Impairment losses on investments.During 2003 and 2002, we recorded net charges totaling $4.4 million and $17.2 million, relating to other-than-temporary impairment of certain strategic investments.  During 2003, we determined that the decline in value of our iVAST stock was other-than-temporary and took a charge to earnings of $4.8 million as a result.  This was partially offset by a gain of $395,000 related to the surrender of 1,880,937 shares of TTR common stock, which was used to acquire patents and other assets of TTR.

Interest and Other Income, Net.  Interest and other income decreased $3.5 million or 47.4% to $3.9 million in 2003 from $7.3 million in 2002, primarily from declining interest rates.

Income Taxes.  We recorded income tax expense of $22.6 million (as restated) and $9.8 million for 2003 and 2002, respectively.  Income tax expense represents combined federal and state taxes at effective rates of 45.6% (as restated) and 44.8% for 2003 and 2002, respectively.  The increase in the effective tax rate was primarily due to changes in tax jurisdictions where our income was earned and the composition of our expenses, including the reduction in amortization of deferred stock-based compensation.

Net Revenues.Our net revenues for 2002 increased 3.5% to $102.3 million in 2002 from $98.8 million in 2001.  This moderate increase is primarily driven by increased revenues in the video technology and ESLM product lines.  Videos DVD copy protection revenues increased $8.4 million or 22.3% to $46.0 million in 2002 from $37.6 million in 2001, due to the continued strong growth of the DVD format and continued high penetration among Hollywood studio customers.  This increase in DVD revenues was substantially offset by continuing decreases in videocassette and PPV copy protection revenues.  Revenues from videocassette copy protection decreased $3.9 million or 33.9% to $7.6 million in 2002 from $11.5 million in 2001, reflecting the trend of Hollywood studios to discontinue copy protecting or more selectively copy protect their VHS releases.  Digital PPV copy
protection revenues decreased $2.2 million or 16.9% to $11.0 million in 2002 from $13.2 million in 2001 due to the continuing slow demand for digital set-top boxes.  Revenues from ESLM increased $1.3 million or 4.9% to $26.9 million in 2002 from $25.6 million in 2001 primarily due to increased market penetration despite the difficult economic environment for enterprise software.  Increases in CSLM and music technology product lines were offset by the decrease in PC Games Technology and Other revenue.  Our DVD copy protection revenues in 2002 were also reduced by a $2.3 million refund resulting from a customers self-reporting errors detected in 2002.  Revenue from this customer was previously recognized only upon cash receipt.

License Revenues.  Our license revenues for 2002 increased modestly by 2.5% compared to 2001 primarily due to increases in our revenues derived by our Entertainment Technologies Group in the DVD copy protection area.  This was offset by decreases in our

45



copy protection revenues for videocassettes and PPV solutions.  We also had an increase in license revenues from our music technology product line, which started in 2002.

Service Revenues.  Our service revenues for 2002 increased by 12.9% compared to 2001 primarily due to increases in consulting revenues and, to a lesser extent, an increase in maintenance revenues.  In 2002, we expanded the headcount of our consulting group to offer additional consulting services to our customers, which resulted in the increase in revenues.

Cost of Revenues  Licenses.  Cost of revenues from licenses as a percentage of license revenues increased to 6.6% for 2002 from 5.4% for 2001.  This increase was primarily due to higher patent defense costs relating to the Rainbow litigation.  Cost of revenues increased $1.3 million to $6.1 million in 2002 from $4.8 million in 2001.  Cost of revenues includes items such as product costs, duplicator and replicator fees, video copy protection processor costs, patent amortization on internally developed patents, patent defense costs and licensing expenses.  We anticipate our gross margin on license fees may increase in 2003 as a result of expected lower patent defense costs.

Cost of Revenues  Services.  Cost of revenues from service fees as a percentage of service revenues increased to 18.5% for 2002 from 11.3% for 2001.  Cost of revenues increased $0.9 million to $1.9 million in 2002 from $1.0 million in 2001.  This increase was primarily due to the increase in our consulting practice which required increased hiring of technical consultants in 2002, which resulted in higher employee related expenses.

Cost of Revenues  Amortization of Intangibles from Acquisitions.  Cost of revenues from amortization of intangibles in 2002 were consistent with 2001.

Research and Development.Research and development expenses increased by $2.6 million or 27.9% to $11.9 million in 2002 from $9.3 million in 2001.  The increase is primarily due to increased research and development activities for our video technology, consumer licensing, enterprise licensing and music technology product lines.  Research and development expenses increased as a percentage of net revenues to 11.6% in 2002 from 9.4% in 2001.

Selling and Marketing.Selling and marketing expenses increased by $2.6 million or 14.2% to $20.7 million in 2002 from $18.1 million in 2001.  This increase was primarily due to increased business development activities for our MacroSafe and music technology product lines and increased commission costs associated with higher revenue levels.  Selling and marketing expenses increased as a percentage of net revenues to 20.3% in 2002 from 18.4% in 2001.

General and Administrative.  General and administrative expenses increased by $1.8 million or 13.5% to $15.0 million in 2002 from $13.2 million in 2001, primarily due to increased facilities costs associated with our new office space.  General and administrative expenses increased as a percentage of net revenues to 14.7% in 2002 from 13.4% in 2001.

Amortization of Goodwill and Other Intangibles from Acquisitions.  In accordance with new accounting guidance, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. (SFAS) 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, goodwill and workforce in place that was subsumed into goodwill, were not amortized beginning January 1, 2002.  As a result, amortization expense decreased $8.5 million or 96.9% overall in 2002 as compared to 2001 which included $8.8 million in goodwill amortization.

We acquired the net assets of Midbar in November 2002 for approximately $17.8 million in cash.  In addition, we have agreed to an additional maximum payout of $8.0 million based on a percentage of the net revenues of our music technology products until December 31, 2004.  The transaction was accounted for as a purchase and the purchase price was allocated to existing technology, existing contracts, patents and trademarks. We recorded $6.9 million of goodwill from this transaction and recorded a $6.0 million charge for purchased in-process research and development.  We amortize intangibles, with the exception of goodwill, relating to the acquisition of net assets of Midbar on a straight-line basis over three to five years based on the expected useful lives of existing technology, existing contracts, patents and trademarks.  The impact of amortization of intangible assets related
to Midbar for the year ended December 31, 2002 was not significant, due to our acquisition occurring near year-end.

In October 2000, we acquired certain assets of Productivity through Software plc (PtS).  We paid approximately $23.3 million in cash and related acquisition costs, and assumed liabilities to service current customer maintenance contracts.  We were subject to an additional maximum payment of $2.8 million contingent upon the business meeting certain predetermined revenue targets within one year of the acquisition of which we were required to pay out $1.2 million in 2001 and none in 2002.  The purchase price was allocated to existing contracts, workforce in place, which was subsumed by goodwill upon adoption of SFAS No. 142, and goodwill.  We amortize the intangibles on a straight-line basis over three years.  Excluding cumulative translation adjustments, goodwill and other intangibles associated with the transaction amounted to $24.7 million as of December 31,
2002 and 2001.  Amortization of these intangible assets decreased to $506,000 in 2002 from $7.9 million in 2001 due to the implementation of SFAS 142.

Amortization of Deferred Stock-Based Compensation.In connection with the acquisition of Globetrotter, approximately 783,742 Globetrotter employee stock options were exchanged for Macrovision stock options, resulting in a deferred stock-based compensation charge of approximately $37.9 million.  The amortization of the deferred stock-based compensation for 2002 and 2001 was $6.3 million and $9.6 million, respectively.

Restructuring expenses.During fourth quarter 2001, we eliminated redundant positions relating to legacy businesses and consolidated certain administrative functions.  This reprofiling affected less than 10% of our employees and resulted in a charge of $2.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2001.  The charge consisted of cash severance payments and non-cash compensation expense relating to the accelerated vesting of certain stock options.  There were no comparable charges in 2002 and no liabilities associated with this restructuring remain as of December 31, 2002.

Impairment losses on investments.During 2002 and 2001, we recorded charges totaling $17.2 million and $6.9 million, relating to other-than-temporary impairment of certain strategic investments.

Interest and Other Income, Net.  Interest and other income decreased $3.1 million or 29.6% to $7.3 million in 2002 from $10.4 million in 2001, primarily from declining interest rates.

Income Taxes.  We recorded income taxes of $9.8 million and $14.0 million for 2002 and 2001, respectively.  Income tax expense represents combined federal and state taxes at effective rates of 44.8% and 42.1% for 2002 and 2001, respectively.  The increase in the effective tax rate was due to changes in tax jurisdictions where our income was earned.

Our operating results have fluctuated in the past, and are expected to continue to fluctuate in the future, on an annual and quarterly basis as a result of a number of factors.  Such factors include the timing of release of popular titles on videocassettes or DVDs or by digital PPV transmission, the timing of release of popular computer games on CD-ROM, the timing of a small number of our electronic license management high-value perpetual licenses during any period, the degree of acceptance of our copy protection technologies by major motion picture studios and computer game publishers, the mix of products sold and technologies licensed, any change in product or license pricing, the seasonality of revenues, changes in our operating expenses, personnel changes, the development of our direct and indirect distribution channels, foreign currency exchange rates and general economic conditions.  We
may choose to reduce royalties and fees or increase spending in response to competition or new technologies or elect to pursue new market opportunities.  Because a high percentage of our operating expenses are fixed, a small variation in the timing of recognition of revenues can cause significant variations in operating results from period to period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We have financed our operations primarily from cash generated by operations, principally our copy protection products and our enterprise license management products.  Our operating activities provided net cash of $58.9 million, $55.1 million and $35.0 million in 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively.  Cash provided by operating activities increased $3.7 million from $55.1 million in 2002 to $58.9 million in 2003.  This increase was primarily due to the increases in deferred revenue and prepaid expenses, other current assets and other assets.  In addition, the availability of cash generated by our operations could be affected by other business risks discussed in the Risk Factor section of this annual report.

Investing activities (used) provided net cash of $(137.2) million, $51.8 million and ($38.4) million in 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively.  Cash provided by (used in) investing activities decreased $189.0 million from $51.8 million in 2002 to $(137.2) million in 2003.  The decrease is mainly due to an increase of $201.0 million of net purchasing activity of marketable securities in 2003, partially offset by a decrease in cash used for acquisitions of $16.6 million.  Purchases of marketable securities increased in 2003 from 2002 due to the use of $38.5 million to repurchase treasury stock and $17.8 million to acquire Midbar during 2002.  Additionally, the lower cash balance at December 31, 2003 as compared to December 31, 2002 is due to higher purchases of marketable securities in 2003 as compared to 2002.  We made capital expenditures of $2.8 million, $3.9 million and
$3.7 million in 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively.  Capital expenditures in 2003 were primarily computer software and hardware.  Capital expenditures in 2002 were primarily leasehold improvements and furniture and fixtures for our new office space.  We also paid $6.3 million, $761,000 and $2.7 million in 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively, related to patents during those periods.

Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities was $6.8 million, $(34.6) million and $7.2 million in 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively.  The increase in net cash provided by financing activities from $(34.6) million in 2002 to $6.8 million in 2003 is

primarily due to the use of $38.5 million to repurchase 3.0 million shares of our common stock in 2002.  In May 2002, our Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program, which allows us to purchase up to 5.0 million shares in the open market from time-to-time at prevailing market prices, through block trades or otherwise, or in negotiated transactions off the market, at the discretion of our management.   Our repurchases of shares of common stock have been recorded as treasury stock and resulted in a reduction of stockholders equity.  We did not repurchase any treasury stock in 2003.  As of December 31, 2003, 2.0 million shares remained authorized for repurchase.

At December 31, 2003, we had $27.9 million in cash and cash equivalents, $95.6 million in short-term investments and $146.2 million in long-term marketable investment securities, which includes $26.8 million in fair market value of our holdings in Digimarc.  We have no material commitments for capital expenditures but anticipate that capital expenditures for the next 12 months will aggregate approximately $4.7 million.  We also have future minimum lease payments of approximately $35.7 million under operating leases.  We believe that the current available funds and cash flows generated from operations will be sufficient to meet our working capital and capital expenditure requirements for the foreseeable future.  We may also use cash to acquire or invest in businesses or to obtain the rights to use certain technologies.

In November 2002, we acquired the assets and operations of Midbar for approximately $17.8 million in cash and related acquisition costs.  In addition, we are subject to an additional maximum payout of $8.0 million based on a percentage of revenues derived from our sales of music technology products through December 31, 2004.  During 2003, we paid $480,000 of such contingent consideration in cash.

In May 2003, we acquired patents and other assets of TTR Technologies, Inc. (TTR) for $5.1 million in cash and the surrender of 1,880,937 shares of TTR common stock, with a fair value of $602,000, that we originally purchased in January 2000 for $4.0 million.

In August 2003, we acquired intellectual property and other assets, including patents and software that can be used to track and manage content in the peer-to-peer file sharing space for $720,000 in cash, $80,000 of acquisition costs and an additional payment of $80,000 due on the first anniversary of the closing date for total consideration of $880,000.  In addition, we have agreed to a maximum payment of $140,000 if certain milestones are achieved by May 28, 2004.  In 2003, we paid $800,000 of such consideration in cash.

Because a significant portion of our cash inflows were generated by operations, our ability to generate positive cash flow from operations may be jeopardized by fluctuations in our operating results.  Such fluctuations can occur as a result of decreases in demand for our copy protection products, our electronic license management products, or due to other business risks including, but not limited to, those factors set forth under the caption Risk Factors in this annual report.

Contractual Obligations

We lease facilities and certain equipment pursuant to non-cancelable operating lease agreements.  Future minimum lease payments pursuant to these leases as of December 31, 2003 were as follows (in thousands):

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations.  SFAS No. 143 addresses financial accounting and reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated asset retirement costs.  This statement applies to legal obligations associated with retirement of long-lived assets that result from the

50



acquisition, construction, development, or normal use of an asset.  We adopted the statement effective January 1, 2003 without material effect on its financial position or results of operations.

In July 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.  SFAS No. 146 addresses financial accounting and reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities and supercedes Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) No. 94-3, Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (Including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring).  This statement requires that a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized when the liability is incurred and establishes that fair value is the objective for initial measurement of the liabilities.  This statement is effective for exit or disposal activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002.  We adopted the provisions of this statement effective January 1, 2003 without
material effect on its financial position or results of operations.

In November 2002, the FASB issued FIN No. 45 (FIN 45), Guarantors Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others.  FIN 45 expands on the accounting guidance of FASB Statements No. 5, 57, and 107 and incorporates without change the provisions of FIN No. 34, which is being superseded.  FIN 45 will affect leasing transactions involving residual guarantees, vendor and manufacturer guarantees, and tax and environmental indemnities.  All such guarantees are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements starting with the period ending after December 15, 2002.  Existing guarantees are grandfathered and are not recognized on the balance sheet.  The initial recognition and measurement provision are effective prospectively for guarantees issued or modified on or after January 1,
2003.  We adopted the provisions of this statement effective January 1, 2003 without material effect on its financial position or results of operations.

In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure - an amendment to FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.  SFAS No. 148 provides alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation.  In addition, SFAS No. 148 amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS No.123 to require more prominent and more frequent disclosures in financial statements about the effects of stock-based compensation.  The transition guidance and annual disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 148 are effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2002.  The interim disclosure provisions are effective for financial reports containing financial statements for interim periods beginning after December 15,
2002.  We did not adopt the fair value method of accounting for stock-based compensation and thus is not affected by the provisions of this Statement relating to methods of transition to the fair value method.  We adopted the interim disclosure provisions for our quarterly financial statements beginning with the period ending March 31, 2003.

In January 2003, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. (FIN) 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities - An Interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51.  In December 2003, the FASB revised FIN 46 and codified certain FASB Staff Positions previously issued for FIN 46 by issuing FIN 46 (Revised December 2003), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities - An Interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51 (FIN 46R.)  FIN 46, as amended by FIN 46R, requires an investor with a majority of the variable interests (primary beneficiary) in a variable interest entity (VIE) to consolidate the entity and also requires majority and significant variable interest investors to provide certain disclosures. A VIE is an entity in which the voting equity investors do not have a controlling financial interest, or the equity investment at risk is
insufficient to finance the entitys activities without receiving additional subordinated financial support from other parties. For arrangements entered into with VIEs created prior to January 31, 2003, the provisions of FIN 46 were originally effective as of July 1, 2003.  However, under FIN 46R, the FASB delayed the effective date of this provision until December 31, 2003. The provisions of FIN 46, as amended by FIN 46R, were effective immediately for all arrangements entered into with new VIEs created after January 31, 2003.  We had no investments in variable interest entities as of December 31, 2003.

In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity.  SFAS No. 150 establishes standards for how companies classify and measure certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity.  It requires companies to classify a financial instrument that is within its scope as a liability (or an asset in some circumstances.)  SFAS No. 150 is effective beginning the third quarter of fiscal 2003.  We adopted this standard without a material effect on its financial position or results of operations.

In November 2002, the EITF reached a consensus on Issue 00-21, Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements.  EITF 00-21 addresses how to account for arrangements that may involve the delivery or performance of multiple products, services and/or rights to use assets.  The consensus mandates how to identify whether goods or services or both, which are to be delivered separately in a bundled sales arrangement, should be accounted for separately because they are separate units of accounting.  The guidance can affect the timing of revenue recognition for such arrangements, even though it does not change rules governing the timing or patterns of revenue recognition of individual items accounted for separately.  We adopted the provisions of EITF 00-21, effective July 1, 2003, without material effect on its financial position or results of operations.

51



In November 2003, the EITF reached a consensus on Issue 03-01 (EITF 03-01), The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments.  EITF 03-01 addresses disclosure requirements that apply to investments in debt and marketable equity securities that are accounted for under SFAS 115 and to investments by not-for-profit entities accounted for under SFAS 124.  EITF 03-01 requires the disclosure of the aggregate amount of unrealized losses and the aggregate related fair value of investments with unrealized losses. The disclosure requirements are effective for the year ended December 31, 2003.  We have adopted the disclosure requirements for the year ended December 31, 2003.

In December 2003, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 104, Revenue Recognition.  SAB 104 updates interpretive guidance in the codification of staff accounting bulletins to provide consistent accounting guidance on revenue recognition.  The principal revisions relate to the deletion of interpretive material no longer necessary because of private sector developments in generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, and the incorporation of certain sections of the SECs Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements  Frequently Asked Questions and Answers document.  The adoption of SAB No. 104 has no material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

ITEM 7A.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates, foreign exchange rates and security investments.  Changes in these factors may cause fluctuations in our earnings and cash flows.  We evaluate and manage the exposure to these market risks as follows:

Fixed Income Investments.  We have an investment portfolio of fixed income securities, including those classified as cash equivalents, short-term investments and long-term marketable investment securities of $269.6 million as of December 31, 2003.  These securities are subject to interest rate fluctuations.  An increase in interest rates could adversely affect the market value of our fixed income securities.

We do not use derivative financial instruments in our investment portfolio to manage interest rate risk.  We limit our exposure to interest rate and credit risk, however, by establishing and strictly monitoring clear policies and guidelines for our fixed income portfolios.  The primary objective of these policies is to preserve principal while at the same time maximizing yields, without significantly increasing risk.  A hypothetical 50 basis point increase in interest rates would result in an approximate $1.1 million decrease (approximately 0.5%) in the fair value of our fixed income available-for-sale securities as of December 31, 2003.  Yield risk is also reduced by targeting a weighted average maturity of our
 portfolio at 12 months so that the portfolios yield regenerates itself as portions of the portfolio mature.

Foreign Exchange Rates.  Due to our reliance on international and export sales, we are subject to the risks of fluctuations in currency exchange rates.  Because a substantial majority of our international and export revenues, as well as expenses, are typically denominated in U.S. dollars, fluctuations in currency exchange rates could cause our products to become relatively more expensive to customers in a particular country, leading to a reduction in sales or profitability in that country.  Our subsidiaries in the U.K., Japan and Israel operate in their local currency, which mitigates a portion of the exposure related to the respective currency royalties collected.

Strategic Investments.  We currently hold minority equity interests in a number of companies.  These investments, at book value totaling $27.0 million, $28.7 million and $58.1 million, represented 7.0%, 8.9% and 16.9% of our total assets as of December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively.  As of December 31, 2003, the adjusted cost of our strategic investments consisted of our investment in Digimarc, a publicly traded company, and iVAST, a privately held company.  In addition, we hold investments in a number of other privately held companies, which have a carrying value of $0.  Digimarc is subject to price fluctuations based on the public market.  Because there is no active trading market for the securities of privately held companies, our investments in them are illiquid.  As such, we may never have an opportunity to realize a return on our investment in these
private companies, and we may in the future be required to write off all or part of one or more of these investments.  During 2003, 2002 and 2001, we wrote off $4.8 million, $17.2 million and $6.9 million, respectively, of strategic investments resulting from impairment that was other-than-temporary.  In 2003, the $4.8 million impairment loss was partially offset by a gain of $395,000 related to the surrender of 1,880,937 shares of TTR common stock, which was used to acquire patents and other assets of TTR, resulting in a net impairment loss of $4.4 million.

ITEM 9.  CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURES

None.

ITEM 9A.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.  We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our chief executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure based closely on the definition of disclosure controls and procedures in Rule 13a-14(c).  Our management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2003. Based on that evaluation, our chief executive officer and principal financial officer had concluded that, as of December 31, 2003, o







ur disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that it will achieve the desired control objectives.  In the course of auditing our 2004 financial statements, we identified that at the end of 2003, we did not maintain adequate controls over the review of our tax provision related to U.S. taxation on income earned outside of the United States.  Therefore, in the first quarter of 2005, we decided to restate our financial statements for the year ended 2003.  The restatement is further discussed in Explanatory Note in the forepart of this Form 10-K/A, and in Note 2, Restatement in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

In connection with the restatement and the filing of this Form 10-K/A, our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, re-evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures at December 31, 2003.  Restatement of previously issued financial statements to reflect the correction of misstatement is a strong indicator of the existence of a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting as defined in the Public Company Accounting Oversight Boards Auditing Standard No. 2, An Audit of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting Performed in Conjunction With an Audit of Financial Statements.  In light of the determination that our previously issued financial statements for the year ended 2003 should be restated, management concluded that a material weakness existed in our internal control over financial reporting and concluded






 that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of the end of December 31, 2003.  Management discussed this matter with the Audit Committee and our independent registered public accounting firm.  The financial statement impact of the adjustment was confined to the fourth quarter of 2003 and did not have any effect on previously reported quarterly financial results.  We remediated this weakness in internal control over financial reporting by hiring a tax director and improving our review of our intercompany tax records and tax accrual position, and changing our methods of recordkeeping for intercompany entries that relate to U.S. taxation on income earned outside the United States during the fourth quarter of 2004.

Changes in
Internal Controls over Financial Reporting. During the quarter ended December
31, 2003, there were no changes in our internal controls over financial
reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially
affect, these controls.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Board of Directors and Stockholders Macrovision Corporation:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Macrovision Corporation and subsidiaries (the Company) as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders equity and comprehensive income, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2003.  These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted
our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting
Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining,
on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the
financial statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that
our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Macrovision Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2003 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

As described
in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the financial statements for
the year ended December 31, 2003 have been restated to correct the
Companys accounting for taxation.

As discussed in Notes 1 and 4 to the consolidated financial statements, effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.

MACROVISION CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001

(1)  The Company and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The Company

Macrovision Corporation develops and markets copy protection, rights management and enterprise license management technologies for the home video, consumer interactive software, enterprise software and music markets.  Macrovision Corporation is a Delaware corporation founded in 1983.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Macrovision Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiaries after elimination of intercompany accounts and transactions.

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

Acquisitions

In August 2003, the Company acquired intellectual property and other assets, including patents and software that can be used to track and manage content in the peer-to-peer file sharing space.  The Company paid $720,000 in cash, $80,000 of acquisition costs and an additional payment of $80,000 will be due on the first anniversary of the closing date for a total purchase price of $880,000.  In addition, the Company has agreed to a maximum payment of $140,000 if certain milestones are achieved by May 28, 2004.  The purchase price was allocated to in-process technology, core technology and employment agreements.  The core technology and employment agreements are being amortized on a straight-line basis over two to six years based on the expected useful lives of the intangible assets.  The in-process technology of $624,000 has been charged to operations during the year ended
December 31, 2003.

In May 2003, the Company acquired patents and other assets of TTR Technologies, Inc. (TTR) for approximately $5.1 million in cash and the surrender of 1,880,937 shares of TTR common stock, with a fair value of $602,000, which the Company originally purchased in January 2000.  The total purchase price of $5.7 million has been allocated to patents and is being amortized on a straight line basis over seven years.  The Company recorded a realized gain of $395,000 for the excess of the market value of such TTR stock on the closing date of the acquisition over the adjusted cost basis of such stock.  This gain has been included in Impairment losses on investments, net in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

In November 2002, the Company acquired the assets and operations of Midbar Tech (1998) Ltd. for approximately $17.8 million in cash and additional related acquisition costs.  In addition, the Company is subject to additional contingent consideration up to $8.0 million based on a percentage of the net revenues derived from the Companys sales of music technology products until December 31, 2004.  In connection with the purchase in November 2002, the Company recorded goodwill of $6.9 million and identifiable intangibles of $4.9 million.  The purchase price was allocated to in-process technology ($6.0 million), existing technology ($0.5 million), existing contracts ($2.6 million), patents ($1.6 million), trademarks ($0.2 million) and goodwill ($6.9 million).  The in-process technology of $6.0 million was charged to operations in 2002  The intangible assets for
existing technology, existing contracts, patents and trademarks are being amortized on a straight-line basis over three to five years based on the expected useful lives of the intangible assets.  For the year ended December 31, 2003, the Company recorded additional goodwill of $1.2 million, representing contingent consideration as noted above.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported results of operations during the reporting period.  On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including those related to revenue recognition, allowance for doubtful accounts, investments, goodwill and other intangible assets, long-lived assets and income taxes.  Actual results could differ from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Investments

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturities from date of purchase of three months or less to be cash equivalents.  Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash on deposit with banks and money market funds.  All other liquid investments with maturities over three months and less than 12 months are classified as short-term investments.  Short-term investments consist of government bonds, government agency securities and corporate debt and equity securities.  All marketable securities with maturities over one year or which the Companys intent is to retain for the long-term are classified as long-term marketable investment securities.

The Company accounts for its publicly traded investments in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities and complies with the disclosure provisions of Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) 03-01, The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments.  Management determines the appropriate classification of investment securities at the time of purchase and re-evaluates such designation as of each balance sheet date.  The Company enters into certain equity investments for the promotion of business and strategic objectives, and typically does not attempt to reduce or eliminate the inherent market risks associated with these investments.  As of December 31, 2003 and 2002, all investment securities were designated as
available-for-sale. Available-for-sale securities are carried at fair value based on quoted market prices, with unrealized gains and losses, reported in comprehensive income (loss), as a separate component of stockholders equity.

Realized gains and losses and declines in value judged to be other-than-temporary for available-for-sale securities will be reported in other income or expense as incurred.  The cost of securities sold is based on the specific identification method.  Interest and dividends on securities classified as available-for-sale are also included in other income.

The following is a summary of available-for-sale securities (in thousands):

As of December 31, 2003, the Company held $26.8 million of common stock in Digimarc, a public company.  During 2002, when the basis in the Companys investment in Digimarc was higher than the average daily trading price over the prior six month period, the Company determined that the decline in value was other-than-temporary.  The Company recorded an impairment loss of $1.8 million in 2002 in Digimarc.

As of December 31, 2003 and 2002, government and corporate bond securities and equity investments totaling $146.2 million and $38.7 million respectively, were classified as long-term marketable investment securities.

As of December 31, 2003 and 2002, the difference between the fair value and the amortized cost of available-for-sale securities were unrealized gains of $3.8 million and $397,000, respectively.  As of December 31, 2003 and 2002, the unrealized gain, net of taxes, was $2.3 million and $235,000, respectively.  These unrealized gains, net of deferred income taxes, related to short-term and long-term government bonds and investment securities have been recorded as a component of comprehensive income (loss).  As of

F-8



December 31, 2003 and 2002, the weighted average portfolio duration and contractual maturity for the bond securities was approximately thirteen months and four months, respectively.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization.  Depreciation and amortization is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets, generally three to five years.  Leasehold improvements and assets recorded under capital leases are amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the assets useful lives or lease terms.

Software Obtained for Internal use

The Company accounts for software obtained for internal use in accordance with Statements of Position (SOP) 98-1, Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use, which requires that certain costs relating to the purchase of internal use software should be capitalized, including costs of software configuration and enhancements.  Approximately $403,000 and $312,000 was capitalized during the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002.  This has been classified on the consolidated balance sheet as a component of property and equipment.

Patents

Patent application costs of $2.7 million and $2.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively, are included in patents and other intangibles and, upon the granting of the related patent, are amortized using the straight-line method over the shorter of the estimated useful life of the patent or 10 years.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Goodwill represents the excess of costs over fair value of assets of businesses acquired.  The Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, as of January 1, 2002.  Goodwill and intangible assets acquired in a purchase business combination and determined to have an indefinite useful life are not amortized, but instead are tested for impairment at least annually in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 142.  SFAS No. 142 also requires that intangible assets with estimable useful lives be amortized over their respective estimated useful lives to their estimated residual values, and reviewed for impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 144, Accounting for Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.

In connection with SFAS No. 142s transitional goodwill impairment evaluation, the Company was required to perform an assessment of whether there was an indication that goodwill was impaired as of the date of adoption.  To accomplish this, the Company was required to identify its reporting units and determine the carrying value of each reporting unit by assigning the assets and liabilities, including the existing goodwill and intangible assets, to those reporting units as of January 1, 2002 and compare such amounts to the respective fair values of each reporting unit.  Additionally, during October 2002, the Company completed its first annual impairment analysis of goodwill.  Based on the results of the transitional and annual impairment analysis, the Company determined that no indicators of impairment existed for its reporting units.  As of December 31, 2002, the
Company had four operating units.  Prior to December 2002, the Company had three reporting units.  In December 2002, the Company established the music technology group, which became the fourth reporting unit.

On July 1, 2003, the Company reorganized into two business units: the Entertainment Technologies Group and the Software Technologies Group.  The Entertainment Technologies Group includes the video technology, PC games and music technology product lines.  The Software Technologies Group includes Enterprise Software Licensing Management and Consumer Software Licensing Management.  As a result of such reorganization, the Company has two reporting units.  In October 2003, the Company completed its 2003 annual impairment analyses of goodwill and determined that no indicators of impairment existed for its two reporting units.

Prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 142, goodwill was amortized on a straight-line basis over the expected periods to be benefited, generally 7 years, and assessed for recoverability by determining whether the amortization of the goodwill balance over its

F-9



remaining life could be recovered through undiscounted future operating cash flows of the acquired operation.  All other intangible assets were amortized on a straight-line basis from 3 to 7 years.

The following table summarizes the effect on the Companys net income and income per share if SFAS No. 142 had been adopted prior to January 1, 2002.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

SFAS No. 144 provides a single accounting model for long-lived assets to be disposed of.  SFAS No. 144 also changes the criteria for classifying an asset as held for sale; and broadens the scope of businesses to be disposed of that qualify for reporting as discontinued operations and changes the timing of recognizing losses on such operations.  The Company adopted SFAS No. 144 on January 1, 2002.  The adoption of SFAS No. 144 did not affect the Companys financial statements.

In accordance with SFAS No. 144, long-lived assets, such as property, plant, and equipment, and purchased intangibles subject to amortization, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.  Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset.  If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset.  Assets to be disposed of would be separately presented in the balance sheet and reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell, and are no longer depreciated.  The assets and
liabilities of a disposed group classified as held for sale would be presented separately in the appropriate asset and liability sections of the balance sheet.

Goodwill and intangible assets not subject to amortization are tested annually for impairment, and are tested for impairment more frequently if events and circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired.  An impairment loss is recognized to the extent that the carrying amount exceeds the assets fair value.

Prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 144, the Company accounted for long-lived assets in accordance with SFAS No. 121, Accounting for Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of.

Other Assets

The Company has made strategic minority investments in privately held companies and accounts for such investments under the cost method.  These investments are included in Other Assets on the balance sheet, and totaled $180,000 and $5.6 million as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

Deferred Revenue

Deferred revenue represents amounts received from customers under certain license, maintenance and service agreements for which the revenue earnings process has not been completed.

Comprehensive Income

Comprehensive income (loss) includes net income, foreign currency translation gains and losses and other unrealized gains and losses on marketable investment securities that have been excluded from the determination of net income.  The Company has reported the components of comprehensive income (loss) on its consolidated statements of stockholders equity.

Revenue Recognition

The Companys revenue consists of royalty fees on copy-protected products on a per unit basis, licenses of the Companys copy protection technology, licenses for the Companys software products, and related maintenance and services revenues.

Royalty Revenues

Royalty revenue from the replication of videocassettes, digital versatile discs (DVDs), and compact disks (CDs) is recognized when realized or realizable and earned.  The Company relies on royalty reports from third parties as its basis for revenue recognition.  In the Companys DVD, videocassette, and consumer software copy protection businesses, it has established significant experience with certain customers to reasonably estimate current period volume for purposes of making an accurate revenue accrual.  Accordingly, royalty revenue from these customers is recognized as earned.  Revenue from customers in pay-per-view (PPV) and music technology is currently recognized only as reported, due to timing of receipt of reports in PPV, and the embryonic stage and

F-11



volume volatility of the audio market.  Advanced royalty fees attributable to minimum copy quantities or shared revenues are deferred until earned.  In the case of agreements with minimum guaranteed royalty payments with no specified volume, revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the life of the agreement.

Technology Licensing Revenues

Nonrefundable technology licensing revenue, which applies principally to DVD and PC subassembly manufacturers, digital PPV, cable and satellite system operators, and set-top decoder manufacturers, is recognized upon establishment of persuasive evidence of an arrangement, performance of all significant obligations and determination that collection of a fixed or determinable license fee is considered probable.

Software Licensing Revenues

The Company recognizes revenue on its software products in accordance with SOP 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, as amended by SOP 98-9 Modification of SOP 97-2.  The Company recognizes revenue when all of the following criteria are met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; delivery of the product has occurred; no significant obligations by us remain; the fee is fixed and determinable; and collectibility is probable.  The Company considers all arrangements with payment terms extending beyond six months not to be fixed or determinable and, accordingly, revenue is recognized as payments become due from the customer under such arrangements.  The Company assesses collectibility based on a number of factors, including the customers past payment history and current creditworthiness.  If collectibility is not considered probable, revenue is recognized
when the fee is collected from the customer.

For license agreements in which non-standard customer acceptance clauses are a condition to earning the license fees, revenue is not recognized until acceptance occurs.  For arrangements containing multiple elements, such as software license fees, consulting services and maintenance, or multiple products and where vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value (VSOE) exists for all undelivered elements, the Company accounts for the delivered elements in accordance with the residual method. Under the residual method, the fair value of the undelivered elements is deferred and the remaining portion of the arrangement fee is recognized as revenue.  For arrangements containing multiple elements where VSOE does not exist, all revenue is deferred until such time that VSOE is evidenced or all elements of the arrangement have been delivered, or if the only undelivered element
is maintenance where VSOE exists, maintenance revenue is recognized pro rata over the maintenance contract period.  The Company also enters into term license agreements in which the license fee is recognized ratably over the term of the license period (generally one year).

When licenses are sold together with consulting and implementation services, license fees are recognized upon delivery of the product provided that (1) the above criteria have been met, (2) payment of the license fees is not dependent upon performance of the consulting and implementation services, and (3) the services are not essential to the functionality of the software.  For arrangements where services are essential to the functionality of the software, both the license and services revenue are recognized in accordance with the provisions of SOP 81-1, Accounting for Performance of Construction-Type and Certain Production-Type Contracts.  Arrangements that allow the Company to make reasonably dependable estimates relative to contract costs and the extent of progress toward completion are accounted for using the percentage-of-completion method.  Arrangements that do not allow
the Company to make reasonably dependable estimates are accounted for using the completed-contracts method.  Because the completed-contracts method precludes recognition of performance under the contract as the work progresses, it does not reflect current financial performance when the contract extends beyond one accounting period, and it therefore may result in uneven recognition of revenue and gross margin.

Professional Services Revenues

The Company provides consulting and training services to its customers.  Revenue from such services is generally recognized as the services are performed, except in instances where services are included in an arrangement accounted for under SOP 81-1.  Professional services revenues are included in services revenue in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Maintenance Revenues

Maintenance agreements generally call for the Company to provide technical support and unspecified software updates to customers.  Maintenance revenue is deferred and recognized ratably over the maintenance contract period (which is generally one year) and included in services revenue in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Cost of Revenues

License Fees

The Company has agreements with certain licensed duplicators, DVD and CD replicators, DVD authoring facilities and CD mastering facilities utilized by customers of the Companys video copy protection and software copy protection technologies.  The Company has agreed to pay these licensees on a specified fixed service fee or on a per unit basis when utilizing the Companys copy protection technologies to help offset the cost of operating the Companys copy protection equipment and reporting requirements of their contracts.  Such amounts are charged to cost of revenues when incurred.  Cost of revenues  license fees also includes items such as product costs, videocassette copy protection processor costs, royalty expense and software licensing fees and software product support.  Cost of revenues  license fees also includes outside legal costs of $692,000,
$1,766,000 and $836,000 in 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively, associated with litigation to enforce the Companys patents.  Amortization of patents is also included in cost of revenues  license fees.

Service Fees

Cost of revenues  service fees includes the cost of technical support for the Companys products, which primarily consists of direct costs and related overhead for employees providing technical support and professional services to its customers, as well as any third party consultants who provide such services on the Companys behalf.

Amortization of Intangibles from Acquisitions

Cost of revenues  amortization of intangibles from acquisitions includes amortization of certain intangibles from acquisitions.  This includes amortization from purchased existing technology, existing contracts, and patents and trademarks.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax carry forwards.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.  The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.  The measurement of deferred tax assets is reduced, if necessary, by a valuation allowance for any tax benefits of which future realization is uncertain.

Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions

The functional currency for the Companys foreign subsidiaries is the applicable local currency.  The translation of foreign currency denominated financial statements into United States dollars is performed for balance sheet accounts using current exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date and for revenues and expense accounts using an average exchange rate for the respective periods.  Adjustments resulting from such translation are included in comprehensive income.  Gains or losses resulting from foreign currency transactions included in the consolidated statements of income were not material in any of the periods presented.

Business and Concentration of Credit Risk and Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company licenses its video copy protection, CD-ROM copy protection and electronic license management software to customers in the home videocassette, DVD, cable and satellite pay-per-view, corporate communication markets, multimedia software markets and business software markets primarily in the United States, Europe, Japan, and the Far East.  In 2003, 2002 and 2001, 36.0%, 42.2% and 33.2%, respectively, of the Companys business was attributed to the licensing of its video copy protection technology through MPAA movie studios.  Accordingly, the ability of the Company to grow its video copy protection operations has been dependent on MPAA movie studios continued success in the production and distribution of movies utilizing the Companys technology.  The Company also licenses its digital PPV video copy protection technologies to satellite and cable television operators
and to the equipment manufacturers that supply the satellite and cable television industries.  The Company licenses its CD-ROM copy protection to publishers of software in the multimedia and educational software and rights management application markets.  With the acquisition of Globetrotter Software, Inc. the Company began its business in electronic software license management (ESLM) software.  The Company licenses ESLM solutions to software and hardware manufacturers and software asset management solutions to enterprise end-users.  The Company also provides support, maintenance and consulting services.  In addition, 42.2%, 34.2% and 45.2% of the Companys sales in 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively, are from export or foreign operations.

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities, trade accounts receivable and long-term investments.  The Company places its cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities in deposits and money market funds with various high credit quality institutions.  The carrying value

F-13



of the Companys financial instruments approximates fair market value due to the relatively short maturities of those instruments.  For the Companys investments in public companies (Digimarc), the carrying value is the market price of shares as represented on a national exchange at period end.

The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers as necessary.  One customer accounted for 10.2% of net revenues for the year ended December 31, 2003.  One customer accounted for 11.4% of net revenues for the year ended December 31, 2002.  No one customer accounted for more than 10% of net revenue for the year ended December 31, 2001.  At December 31, 2003, the Company did not have any customers that were equal to or greater than or equal to 10% of accounts receivable.  At December 31, 2002, receivables from four separate customers were approximately 11%, 11%, 11% and 12% of accounts receivable, respectively.

F-14



Earnings Per Share

Basic EPS is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period.  Diluted EPS is computed using the weighted average number of common and dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding during the period except for periods of operating loss for which no common share equivalents are included because their effect would be anti-dilutive.  Dilutive common equivalent shares consist of common stock issuable upon exercise of stock options using the treasury stock method.

In 2003, 2002 and 2001, the weighted average number of stock options that were not included in the diluted earnings per share calculation because the exercise price was greater than the average market price, were approximately 3,889,000, 3,747,000, and 1,441,000, respectively.  The weighted average exercise price of these options for 2003, 2002, and 2001 was $39.73, $45.33, and $69.74, respectively.

Research and Development

Expenditures for research and development are expensed as incurred.  Under SFAS No. 86, Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed, costs incurred in the research and development of software products are expensed as incurred until technological feasibility has been established.  The unamortized costs are compared to the net realizable value at each balance sheet date, and to the extent the unamortized costs exceed the net realizable value, they are written off.  The Company had no capitalized costs under this statement as of December 31, 2003.

Stock Based Compensation

The Company accounts for employee stock-based compensation arrangements in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation (FASB) No. 44 (FIN 44), Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation  an Interpretation of APB Opinion No. 25, and complies with the disclosure provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (SFAS No. 123), Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.  The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to non-employees in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 123 and Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) No. 96-18, Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in
Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services.

If compensation cost for the Companys stock-based compensation plans had been determined in a manner consistent with the fair value approach described in SFAS No. 123, the Companys net income and net income per share as reported would have been reduced to the pro forma amounts indicated below (in thousands, except per share data):

Options vest over several years and new options are generally granted each year.  Because of these factors, the pro forma effect shown above may not be representative of the pro forma effect of SFAS No. 123 in future years.

The fair value of each option is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes method with the following weighted average assumptions for the Option Plans and the ESPP Plan:

Valuation of Strategic Investments

As of December 31, 2003 and 2002, the adjusted cost of the Companys strategic investments totaled $27.0 million and $28.7 million, respectively.  This included the Companys investments in public and non-public companies.  Investments in public and non-public companies are classified on the balance sheet as Long-term marketable investment securities and Other assets, respectively.

The Company reviews its investments in non-public companies and estimate the amount of any impairment incurred during the current period based on specific analysis of each investment, considering the activities of and events occurring at each of the underlying portfolio companies during the period.  For investments in public companies, the Company compares the basis in the investment to the average daily trading prices of the security over the prior six months to determine if an other-than-temporary impairment has occurred.  If the six-month average is less than the current cost basis, the Company records a charge to the statement of income for the difference between the market price at period end and the current cost basis.

F-16



For equity investments in non-public companies for which there is no market where their value is readily determinable, the Company reviews each investment for indicators of impairment on a regular basis based primarily on achievement of business plan objectives and current market conditions, among other factors.  The primary business plan objectives the Company considers include, among others, those related to financial performance such as liquidity, achievement of planned financial results or completion of capital raising activities, and those that are not primarily financial in nature such as the launching of technology or the hiring of key employees.  If it is determined that an other-than-temporary impairment has occurred with respect to an investment in a portfolio company, in the absence of quantitative valuation metrics, such as a recent financing round, management estimates the
impairment and/or the net realizable value of the portfolio investment based on a hypothetical liquidation at book value approach as of the reporting date.  Future adverse changes in market conditions or poor operating results of underlying investments could result in losses or an inability to recover the current carrying value of the investments thereby requiring further impairment charges in the future.

Based on these measurements, $4.8 million, $17.2 million and $6.9 million of other-than-temporary impairment losses from investments in non-public companies were recorded during the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively.  In 2003, the $4.8 million loss was partially offset by $395,000 of realized gains from the surrender of our stock in TTR resulting in a net impairment loss of $4.4 million.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations.  SFAS No. 143 addresses financial accounting and reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated asset retirement costs.  This statement applies to legal obligations associated with retirement of long-lived assets that result from the acquisition, construction, development, or normal use of an asset.  The Company adopted the statement effective January 1, 2003 without material effect on its financial position or results of operations.

In July 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities.  SFAS No. 146 addresses financial accounting and reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities and supercedes EITF No.  94-3, Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (Including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring).  This statement requires that a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized when the liability is incurred and establishes that fair value is the objective for initial measurement of the liabilities.  This statement is effective for exit or disposal activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002.  The Company adopted the provisions of this statement effective January 1, 2003 without material effect on its financial
position or results of operations.

In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation  Transition and Disclosure  an amendment to FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.  SFAS No. 148 provides alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation.  In addition, SFAS No. 148 amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS No.123 to require more prominent and more frequent disclosures in financial statements about the effects of stock-based compensation.  The transition guidance and annual disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 148 are effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2002.  The interim disclosure provisions are effective for financial reports containing financial statements for interim periods beginning after December
15, 2002.  The Company did not adopt the fair value method of accounting for stock-based compensation and thus is not affected by the provisions of this Statement relating to methods of transition to the fair value method.  The Company has adopted the interim disclosure provisions for its interim financial statements beginning with the period ending March 31, 2003.

In November 2002, the FASB issued FIN No. 45 (FIN 45), Guarantors Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others.  FIN 45 expands on the accounting guidance of FASB Statements No. 5, 57, and 107 and incorporates without change the provisions of FIN No. 34, which is being superseded.  FIN 45 will affect leasing transactions involving residual guarantees, vendor and manufacturer guarantees, and tax and environmental indemnities.  All such guarantees are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements starting with the period ending after December 15, 2002.  Existing guarantees are grandfathered and are not recognized on the balance sheet.  The initial recognition and measurement provision are effective prospectively for guarantees issued or modified on or after
January 1, 2003.  The Company adopted the provisions of this statement effective January 1, 2003 without material effect on its financial position or results of operations.

In January 2003, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. (FIN) 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities - An Interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51.  In December 2003, the FASB revised FIN 46 and codified certain FASB Staff Positions previously issued for FIN 46 by issuing FIN 46 (Revised December 2003), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities - An Interpretation of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 51 (FIN 46R.)  FIN 46, as amended by FIN 46R, requires an investor with a majority of the variable interests (primary beneficiary) in a variable interest entity (VIE) to consolidate the entity and also requires majority and significant variable interest investors to provide certain disclosures. A VIE is an entity in which the voting equity investors do not have a controlling financial interest, or the equity investment at risk is
insufficient to finance the entitys activities

F-17



without receiving additional subordinated financial support from other parties. For arrangements entered into with VIEs created prior to January 31, 2003, the provisions of FIN 46 were originally effective as of July 1, 2003.  However, under FIN 46R, the FASB delayed the effective date of this provision until December 31, 2003. The provisions of FIN 46, as amended by FIN 46R, were effective immediately for all arrangements entered into with new VIEs created after January 31, 2003.  The Company had no investments in variable interest entities as of December 31, 2003.

In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity.  SFAS No. 150 establishes standards for how companies classify and measure certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity.  It requires companies to classify a financial instrument that is within its scope as a liability (or an asset in some circumstances.)  SFAS No. 150 is effective beginning the third quarter of fiscal 2003.  The Company has adopted this standard without a material effect on its financial position or results of operations.

In November 2002, the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) reached a consensus on Issue 00-21, Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements.  EITF 00-21 addresses how to account for arrangements that may involve the delivery or performance of multiple products, services and/or rights to use assets.  The consensus mandates how to identify whether goods or services or both, which are to be delivered separately in a bundled sales arrangement, should be accounted for separately because they are separate units of accounting.  The guidance can affect the timing of revenue recognition for such arrangements, even though it does not change rules governing the timing or patterns of revenue recognition of individual items accounted for separately.  The Company adopted the provisions of EITF 00-21, effective July 1, 2003, without material effect on its
financial position or results of operations.

In November 2003, the EITF reached a consensus on Issue 03-01 (EITF 03-01), The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments.  EITF 03-01 addresses disclosure requirements that apply to investments in debt and marketable equity securities that are accounted for under SFAS 115 and to investments by not-for-profit entities accounted for under SFAS 124.  EITF 03-01 requires the disclosure of the aggregate amount of unrealized losses and the aggregate related fair value of investments with unrealized losses. The disclosure requirements are effective for the year ended December 31, 2003.  The Company has adopted the disclosure requirements for the year ended December 31, 2003.

In December 2003, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 104, Revenue Recognition.  SAB 104 updates interpretive guidance in the codification of staff accounting bulletins to provide consistent accounting guidance on revenue recognition.  The principal revisions relate to the deletion of interpretive material no longer necessary because of private sector developments in generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, and the incorporation of certain sections of the SECs Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements  Frequently Asked Questions and Answers document.  The adoption of SAB No. 104 has had no material impact on the Companys financial position or results of operations.

(2)          Restatement of Financial Statements

As part of the financial close for the year ended December 31, 2004, the Company reviewed its intercompany records and tax accrual position in connection with U.S. taxation on income earned outside the U.S. and identified that it had understated its tax expense in the fourth quarter of 2003 by $2.8 million.  The Company determined to correct its computation of tax expense for fiscal year 2003 and as a result, on February 28, 2005, the Companys Board of Directors, including its Audit Committee, concluded to restate the Companys financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2003.

In conjunction with this review, the Company undertook an effort to analyze the process of monitoring, recording and offsetting various intercompany account balances.  As a result of the review, the Company concluded that additional income tax expense and tax accruals were needed principally to reflect U.S. taxes on income earned outside the U.S.

The effect of the adjustment was an increase in income tax expense of $2.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2003 and an increase to income tax payable as of December 31, 2003.  As a result of the additional income tax expense recorded, the Company reduced retained earnings and stockholders equity by $2.8 million as of December 31, 2003.  The impact of the restatement is a decrease in net earnings of $2.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2003 from amounts previously reported.  The restatement decreased reported basic and diluted earnings per share by $0.06 for the year ended December 31, 2003.  These tax adjustments will not have any impact on the Companys previously reported sales, comparable sales or its compliance with any material covenant under any financial or contractual obligation of the Company.

The following is a summary of the significant effects of the restatement on (i) the Companys consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2003; (ii) the Companys consolidated statements of income for the year ended December 31, 2003; and (iii) the Companys consolidated statement of cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2003.

In December 1996, the Companys Board of Directors adopted the 1996 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the Purchase Plan) and reserved 560,000 shares of common stock for issuance thereunder.  The Purchase Plan was effective upon the Companys initial public offering in March 1997.  The Purchase Plan permits eligible employees to purchase common stock, through payroll deductions of between 1% and 20% of the employees compensation, at a price equal to 85% of the lower of the fair market value of the common stock on the first day of the offering period or on the last day of the purchase period.

In August 2000, the Company adopted the 2000 Equity Incentive Plan, which serves as the successor to the Companys 1996 Equity Incentive Plan.  The total number of shares of Macrovision common stock for which options and other stock awards may be granted under the 2000 Equity Incentive Plan was increased from 4,500,000 to 6,300,000 in June 2002, and the maximum number of stock options that the Company may grant to any individual in any calendar year is 500,000, in each case subject to adjustment as described below.  The shares available for issuance under the 2000 Equity Incentive Plan may be authorized but unissued shares of common stock or shares of common stock that the Company reacquires.  If any options expire or are forfeited or canceled, the shares are added back to the total number of shares available for issuance under the 2000 Equity Incentive Plan.  In January 2003, the
2000 Equity Incentive Plan was amended such that all options granted after January 2003 have a maximum term of five years and vest over three years.  In April 2003, an additional 4,000,000 shares of common stock were reserved for issuance under the 2000 Equity Incentive Plan.

The Companys stockholders approved the Directors Plan in February 1997 and approved the share increases in August 2000 and June 2002.  The Directors Plan provides each eligible director an initial grant of a nonqualified option to purchase 40,000 shares (increased from 20,000 shares prior to 1999) of common stock on the date the eligible director first becomes a director, with each initial option granted after 1999 vesting in monthly
increments over a three-year period.  The Directors Plan provides for additional annual grants of nonqualified options to each eligible director to purchase 15,000 shares of common stock on each anniversary of the date such person became a director, with monthly vesting over one year.  In January 2003, the Directors Plan was amended such that all options granted after January 2003 have a maximum term of five years and vest over three years.  In April 2003, an additional 275,000 shares of common stock were reserved for issuance under the Directors Plan.

The Company uses the intrinsic value-based method to account for all of its employee stock-based compensation plans.  Accordingly, compensation cost has been recognized in the accompanying consolidated financial statements for its plans when the exercise price of each option was less than the fair value of the underlying common stock as of the grant date for each stock option.  With respect to the options assumed in connection with the acquisition of Globetrotter, the Company recorded deferred stock-based compensation of approximately $37.9 million, for the difference between the exercise price and the fair value of the stock underlying the options.  This amount is being amortized over the vesting period of the individual options, generally four years.  Amortization expenses recognized in 2003, 2002 and 2001 relating to the Globetrotter acquisition totaled $2.7 million, $6.3 million
and $9.6 million, respectively.

Stock Repurchase Program

In May 2002, the Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program for up to 5.0 million shares of the Companys common stock.  Purchases of the stock may be made, from time-to-time, in the open market at prevailing market prices, at the discretion of Company management and as monitored by the Audit Committee of the Companys Board of Directors.  The Companys repurchases of shares of common stock have been recorded as treasury stock at cost and result in a reduction of stockholders equity.  As of December 31, 2003 and 2002, treasury stock consisted of 3.0 million shares of common stock that the Company had repurchased, with a cost basis of approximately $38.5 million.  As of December 31, 2003, 2.0 million shares remained authorized for repurchase.

Offer to Exchange Outstanding Stock Options to Purchase Common Stock

On May 27, 2003, the Companys stockholders approved a program to permit the exchange of stock options issued under the 2000 Equity Plan and the 1996 Equity Incentive Plan having an exercise price greater than $28.00 for a lesser number of new options to be granted at least six months and one day from the cancellation of the surrendered options (the Option Exchange Program).

On August 20, 2003, the Company implemented the Option Exchange Program by filing a Tender Offer Statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.  The Option Exchange Program was offered from August 20, 2003 to September 19, 2003.  On September 19, 2003, pursuant to the Option Exchange Program, the Company accepted for cancellation, options to purchase 969,215 shares of common stock.  Eligible employees, subject to their continued employment with the Company on the grant date of the new options (anticipated to be March 22, 2004), will receive new options to purchase approximately 337,211 shares of common stock in exchange for such cancelled options.  Key executive officers and directors of the Company are not eligible to participate in the Option Exchange Program.

The Company designed the Option Exchange Program so that the Company will not need to record compensation expense from the issuance of new stock options under current generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.

There was no change in the total valuation allowance for the year ended December 31, 2003 or 2002.  Net deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2003 include a deferred tax liability of approximately $1.5 million of net unrealized capital gains, which primarily relates to the Companys investment in Digimarc.

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.  The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible, as well as tax planning strategies.

Based on projections of future taxable income over the periods in which the deferred tax assets are deductible and the history of the Companys profitability, management believes that it is more likely than not that the Company will realize the benefits of these deductible differences, net of valuation allowances as of December 31, 2003.

Deferred tax liabilities have not been recognized for undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries because it is managements intention to reinvest such undistributed earnings outside the U.S. indefinitely.  Undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries for which deferred taxes have not been provided aggregate approximately $10.7 million at December 31, 2003.  The amount of income tax liability that would result had such earnings been repatriated is estimated to be approximately $1.0 million.

Employee Benefit Plans

The Company has a 401(k) plan that allows eligible employees to contribute up to 20% of their compensation, which contribution was limited to $13,000 in 2003.  Employee contributions and earnings thereon vest immediately.  The Company is not required to contribute to the 401(k) plan, but has made voluntary contributions.  The Company made matching contributions to the 401(k) plan equal to 20% of each participating employees contribution, up to a maximum annual matching contribution of $2,600, $2,200 and $2,100 in 2003, 2002, and 2001 respectively.  For employees over 50 years of age, the contribution limit was $16,000 in 2003 and the Companys maximum annual matching contribution was $3,200.  Matching contributions aggregated $266,000, $157,000 and $204,000 for the years ended December 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001, respectively, and are fully vested after three years of
service.

Software Indemnification

The Company sells software licenses and services to its customers under contracts.  Each contract contains the relevant terms of the contractual arrangement with the customer, and generally includes certain provisions for indemnifying the customer against losses, expenses, and liabilities from damages that may be awarded against the customer in the event the Companys software is found to infringe upon a patent, copyright, trademark, or other proprietary right of a third party.

(9)     Segment and Geographic Information

The Company has two reportable segments: the Entertainment Technologies Group and the Software Technologies Group.  The Entertainment Technologies Group develops and licenses copy protection and rights management for videos, music CDs and PC games.  The Software Technologies Group provides electronic license management software to hardware and software manufacturers and enterprise end-users.

On June 17, 2003, the Company announced its reorganization into two business units, effective July 1, 2003: the Entertainment Technologies Group and the Software Technologies Group.  The reorganization was done to improve customer focus, consolidate resources, and effect synergies in sales, marketing, customer support and research and development.  The Entertainment Technologies Group reflects the merger of the video technology and music technology product lines, along with the SafeDisc portion of our consumer software group.  The SafeDisc product line has been renamed PC games technology.  The Software Technologies Group reflects the merger of the Enterprise Software Licensing Management product line and the SafeCast product line that was also a part of our consumer software group.  SafeCast has been renamed Consumer Software Licensing Management.  The Company
continues to report separate revenue results for various product lines under the Entertainment Technologies Group (DVD, Videocassettes, PPV, Music and PC Games) and the Software Technologies Group (Enterprise Software Licensing Management and Consumer Software Licensing Management).  Revenues and segment income have been reclassified for prior periods to conform to the current period presentation.

The Company identifies segments based principally upon the type of products sold.  The accounting policies of these reportable segments are the same as those described for the consolidated entity.  The Company evaluates the performance of its reportable segments based on revenue and operating income.  The Company does not include any amortization of intangibles from acquisitions, amortization of deferred stock compensation, in-process research and development, restructuring expenses, impairment losses on investments, net and interest and other income, net.  In addition, as the Companys assets are primarily located in its corporate office in the United States, and not allocated to any specific segment, the Company does not produce reports for or measure the performance of its segments based on any asset-based metrics.  Therefore, segment information is presented only for
revenue and operating income.

The following segment reporting information of the Company is provided (in thousands):

(10) Contingencies

The Company is involved in legal proceedings related to some of its intellectual property rights.

Globetrotter v. Rainbow Technologies, Elan & Ken Greer

In November 1997, Globetrotter filed a patent infringement lawsuit (Case No. C-98-20419-JF/EAI) in the Federal District Court for the Northern District of California against Elan Computer Group and its founder, Ken Greer, alleging infringement of one of its patents and unfair competition and trade practices.  In March 1998, Rainbow Technologies North America, Inc. entered into an agreement to purchase certain assets of Elan and entered into a litigation cooperation agreement with Elan regarding the pending Globetrotter litigation.  On or around September 1998, Globetrotter filed a patent infringement suit against Rainbow Technologies, which was subsequently consolidated with the action against Elan Computer Group and Ken Greer.  Rainbow Technologies and Ken Greer filed separate counterclaims against Globetrotter and its founder, Matthew Christiano, alleging antitrust violations, unfair
competition, tortuous interference with business relations, and trade libel.  Rainbow Technologies and Ken Greer are seeking compensatory damages, punitive damages, injunctive relief, and disgorgement of profits.  On August 31, 2000, the Company acquired Globetrotter.

In 1999 and 2001, the Federal District Court granted the partial summary judgment motions for Rainbow et al that essentially dismissed the patent infringement case against Rainbow et al.  In 2002, the Company filed a series of summary judgment motions to dismiss some of the counterclaims from Rainbow et al.  The Federal District Court granted all of the Companys motions for summary judgment in full and dismissed all of the claims against Globetrotter and Matt Christiano.

On December 9, 2002, Ken Greer and Elan filed a notice to appeal the summary judgment of all their counterclaims by Judge Fogel.  In response, on December 23, 2002, the Company filed a notice to appeal the summary judgment of all its patent infringement claims against Ken Greer, Elan and Rainbow.  On January 2, 2003, Rainbow filed a notice to appeal the summary judgment of all of its counterclaims.  On March 5, 2003, the Company entered into a stipulated agreement with Rainbow to dismiss all cross-appeals between Rainbow and us.  On March 31, 2003, Ken Greer and Elan filed an appeal brief to appeal the summary judgment of its counterclaims.  In the brief, Elan indicated it was abandoning its appeal of the summary judgment order.  This leaves only Ken Greers

appeal and the Companys cross-appeal.  The Company filed an appeal brief on May 12, 2003.  Both parties subsequently filed reply briefs in July 2003.  An oral hearing took place in front of the court on December 3, 2003.  The Company expects a decision in the second quarter of 2004.

If an adverse ruling is ultimately reached on the remaining appeals and the case is returned to a trial court, significant monetary damages may be levied against the Company, which could have a material adverse effect on the Companys business, consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Macrovision Corporation v. ViTec Audio and Video GmbH

The Company initiated a patent infringement lawsuit in the District Court of Dusseldorf in March 1999 against ViTec Audio und Video GmbH, a German company that manufactures what the Company believes to be a video copy protection circumvention device.  ViTec filed a reply brief arguing that its product does not infringe the Companys patents.  The case was heard in the District Court of Dusseldorf, Germany.  The District Court of Dusseldorf ruled adversely against the Company.  The Company appealed the District Courts ruling in July 2000 to the Court of Appeal in Dusseldorf.  A hearing took place in front of the Court of Appeal in Dusseldorf on August 23, 2001 in which the Court stated that because the appeal involves complex technical subject matter, the Court would require technical expert witnesses.  The Court selected Professor Dr. Ing. M. Plantholt as its
expert witness.  On January 27, 2003, Professor Plantholt submitted his technical opinion to the Court, and an English translation was made available to the Company on July 3, 2003.  The Company is reviewing the opinion and is considering its options.  A hearing before the Court of Appeal in Dusseldorf was scheduled for March 4, 2004, but was postponed by the Court.  The new date for the hearing will be rescheduled in late 2004.  In the event of an adverse ruling, the Company may incur a corresponding decline in demand for its video copy protection technology, which could harm the Companys business in Germany.  In addition, the Company may be obligated to pay some of ViTecs attorney fees estimated to be $25,000.

Yield Dynamics, Inc. v. Macrovision Corporation and Globetrotter Software, Inc.

On October 17, 2002, Yield Dynamics, Inc. filed a federal court action in the Northern District of California against the Company and Globetrotter Software, Inc.  Yield Dynamics alleged that it created a software interface to allow its Genesis software product to work with our FLEXlm software and that we distributed this code without Yield Dynamics permission.  Yield Dynamics asserted claims of copyright infringement, trade secret misappropriation, common law unfair competition, and unfair competition under Californias Business and Professions Code.  The parties agreed to settle the matter and on October 21, 2003, the parties filed with the court a joint stipulated request for the dismissal of the above action with prejudice.  The court entered the dismissal with prejudice on November 26, 2003.

USPTO Interference Proceedings Between Macrovision Corporation and InterTrust Technologies

The Company received notice on September 4, 2003 from the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) declaring an interference between its U.S. Patent No. 5,845,281 (the 281 patent) together with two of its continuation applications, and a patent application determined to be from InterTrust Technologies Corporation.  On December 19, 2003, the Company received notice from the USPTO declaring an additional interference between two continuation applications related to the 281 patent and four issued U.S. patents from InterTrust.  The 281 patent and its continuation applications are in the field of digital rights management, and are not associated with the Companys existing copy protection business.

An interference is declared by the USPTO when two or more parties claim the same patentable invention.  An interference proceeding will be held to determine the patentability of the involved patent and applications and who was the first inventor, since in the United States the first party to invent is granted the patent.  The 281 patent and its continuation applications have a priority filing date of February 1, 1995.  The InterTrust application is a continuation of application No. 08/388,107 (now abandoned) and as a consequence potentially has a priority filing date of February 13, 1995.  Because of the proximity of these priority filing dates, the interference proceeding by the USPTO will attempt to determine who invented first.  This proceeding is still in its initial stages, and is anticipated to take at least a year.

Macrovision vs. 321 Studios LLC

On January 7, 2004, the Company initiated a lawsuit in the Southern District of New York against 321 Studios LLC, a producer of cloning software products, alleging that 321 Studios infringes the Companys patented copy protection technology and also violates the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998.  The Company is currently seeking a preliminary injunction to bar 321 Studios from selling and marketing its products.  On February 13, 2004, 321 Studios filed responsive pleadings and counterclaims for declaratory relief challenging the validity and enforceability of the Companys patents and the applicability of the DMCA.

From time to time the Company has been involved in other disputes and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business.  In managements opinion, none of these other disputes and legal actions is expected to have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial position, results of operation or cash flow.

As of December 31, 2003, it was not possible to estimate the liability, if any, in connection with these matters.  Accordingly, no accruals for these contingencies have been recorded.
