## NOTES TO UNAUDITEDCONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

 

**1.****                          INTERIMFINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

 

Theconsolidated financial statements include the accounts of the parent companyand our subsidiaries after elimination of all significant intercompany balancesand transactions.  All significantsubsidiaries are 100% owned.

 

Theunaudited consolidated financial statements included herein have been preparedin accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the UnitedStates (generally accepted accounting principles) for interim financialinformation and with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 10 ofRegulation S-X.  Certain information andfootnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared inaccordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed oromitted pursuant to such rules and regulations.  In the opinion of management all adjustments,including normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation ofthe interim periods presented have been included.  The interim results are not necessarilyindicative of the operating results expected for the full fiscal year ending onDecember 31, 2005.

 

Ourconsolidated financial statements have been prepared on the assumption that wewill continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assetsand liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Report ofthe Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm on the financial statementsof the Company as of and for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004included in Form 10-K contained an explanatory paragraph that expressessubstantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.  The financial statements do not include anyadjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability andclassification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities thatmay result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

As of June 25,2005, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $102.5 million and incurred anet loss of $1.6 million and $2.6 million for the three-month and six-monthperiods ended June 25, 2005, respectively. As of June 25, 2005, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of$1.3 million, working capital of $1.2 million, a current ratio of 1.29, total assets of $6.1 million and total liabilities of $10.9million.  Our ability to generate cashand operating income is dependent on the realization of additionalrestructuring efforts, our responsiveness to further negative impacts due tothe continuing downturn in the semiconductor capital equipment market andincreasing our customer base to expand the penetration of our producttechnology.

 

Asdiscussed in Note 5, on January 28, 2005, we completed an amendment to thefinancing agreement with the institutional lender whereby our payments underthe long-term convertible note have been deferred for one year, resulting in$800,000 of principal payments being rescheduled to begin on February 1,2006.  These payments were previouslyscheduled to be paid in 2005.  Thematurity date of the long-tem convertible

note has also been extended for one year from March 2007to March 2008.  As part of thisamendment, the fixed conversion prices related to both the $3.0 million securedworking capital line of credit and the $2.0 million long-term convertible notewere reduced to $0.60 and $0.56, respectively. On February 25, 2005, we completed a new restructuring agreementwith our 10% Senior Convertible Noteholders. Under the agreement, theNoteholders representing $2.9 million in debt, or 80% of the debt existing asof December 31, 2004, have agreed to continue to accept stock in lieu ofcash for their interest payments for the remaining term of the notes through December 2006.  As part of this agreement, the conversionprice of the underlying notes has been reduced from $1.00 per share to $0.85per share for the remaining term of the notes through December 2006.  Thisresults in approximately $290,000 of interest expense to be incurred in 2005 tobe satisfied through the issuance of shares of our common stock.  On April 29, 2005, we completed afinancing transaction with the institutional lender in which we borrowed anadditional $2,500,000. The agreement provides for monthly interest payments ata rate equal to prime plus 1.75%. Beginning six months after the closing, we are required to make monthlypayments equal to 1/30th of the principal amount until three years after theclosing, at which time the entire remaining principal and accrued interest isdue and payable in full.  The loan isconvertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $0.23 pershare.  The Company also issued thelender an option to purchase 2,556,651 shares of common stock for an exerciseprice of $.01 per share.  The Companyreceived net proceeds of approximately $2.4 million at the closing.

 

Weestimate that we may need to raise additional capital through debt or equityofferings, further modify our existing credit agreements, sell assets, makesignificant structural cost reductions or take a combination of theseactions.  We are actively pursing theseactivities; however, there is no assurance that we will be successful in any ofthese activities.  If we are unsuccessfulin obtaining sufficient financing, further restructuring our existing creditagreements, or completing further restructuring initiatives, our operations andfinancial condition will be materially negatively impacted and we could berequired to take actions that could harm our business, including potentiallyceasing certain or all of our operations.

 

Interimunaudited financial results should be read in conjunction with the auditedfinancial statements included in the SEC Report on Form 10-K, for theperiod ended December 31, 2004.

**5.**                          **FINANCINGTRANSACTIONS**

 

On March 9,2004 we completed a $5.0 million secured financing transaction with aninstitutional lender.  Under the terms ofthe three-year agreement, we put in place a $3.0 million secured workingcapital line of credit and a $2.0 million long-term convertible note.  $750,000 of the secured working capital lineof credit can be converted to shares of our common stock by the lender undercertain market conditions and initially at a price of $1.92 per share.  The $2.0 million long-term convertible noteis convertible to shares of our common stock initially at a price of$1.79.  In connection with the executionof this credit facility, we issued to the lender a seven-year warrant to purchase400,000 shares of our common stock at exercise prices ranging from $2.30 to$2.88.  The fair value of the warrant wasdetermined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.  This resulted in a value of $391,000, whichwas recorded as an increase to additional paid-in- capital and a discount tothe working capital line of credit and long-term convertible note.  This discount is amortized to interestexpense over the three-year agreement. Our then existing secured lending relationship was terminated as aresult of this transaction.  This creditfacility is secured by all the assets of the Company.  On January 28, 2005, we completed anamendment to the financing agreement with the institutional lender whereby ourpayments under the long-term convertible note have been deferred for one year,resulting in $800,000 of principal payments being rescheduled to begin on February 1,2006.  These payments were previouslyscheduled to be paid in 2005.  Thematurity date of the long-term convertible note has also been extended for oneyear from March 2007 to March 2008. As a part of this amendment the fixed conversion prices related to boththe $3.0 million secured working capital line of credit and the $2.0 long-termconvertible note were reduced to $0.60 and $0.56, respectively.  Additionally, we issued the lender aseven-year warrant to purchase 150,000 shares of common stock at a price of$0.67.  The fair value of the warrant wasdetermined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.  This resulted in a value of $51,000, whichwas recorded as in increase to additional paid-in-capital and a discount to thelong-term convertible note.  Theaforementioned restructuring amendment was not a troubled debt restructuringunder SFAS 15 (as interpreted by EITF 02-04) or a substantial modification asdefined by EITF 96-19; therefore no extinguishment gain or loss was recognizedin our financial statements.

 

On April 29,2005, we completed a financing transaction with the institutional lender inwhich we borrowed an additional $2,500,000. The agreement provides for monthlyinterest payments at a rate equal to prime plus 1.75%.  Beginning six months after the closing, weare required to make monthly payments equal to 1/30th of the principal amountuntil three years after the closing, at which time the entire remainingprincipal and accrued interest is due and payable in full.  The loan is convertible into shares of theCompany’s common stock at a price of $0.23 per share.  The Company received net proceeds ofapproximately $2.4 million at the closing. In connection with this transaction, we issued the lender an option topurchase 2,556,651 shares at $0.01 per share. The fair value of the option wasdetermined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.  This resulted in a value of $463,000, whichwas recorded as in increase to additional paid-in-capital and a discount to thelong-term convertible note.  Thisdiscount is amortized to interest expense over the three-year agreement.  The issuance was exempt from registrationunder Rule 506 under

the Securities Act of 1933, because all of the noteholderswere accredited, there was no general solicitation, and the shares were subjectto restrictions on transfer.

 

On February 25,2005, we completed a second amendment to the agreement with the holders of our10% Senior Subordinated Convertible Notes, wherein holders of 80% of theremaining Notes, representing $2.9 million, agreed to continue to accept stockin payment of interest for the remaining four interest payments through December 24,2006.  As part of this amendment, weagreed to reduce the Note conversion price to $0.85 per share, and use our bestefforts to register the shares with the SEC. The aforementioned restructuring amendment was not a troubled debtrestructuring under SFAS 15 (as interpreted by EITF 02-04) or a substantialmodification as defined by EITF 96-19; therefore no extinguishment gain or losswas recognized in our financial statements.

 

Duringthe first quarter of 2004, we issued 228,618 shares of our common stock to theholders of our 10% Senior Subordinated Convertible Notes (“the Notes”) inpayment of interest due on December 31, 2003.  The issuance was exempt from registrationunder Rule 506 under the Securities Act of 1933, because all of thenoteholders were accredited, there was no general solicitation, and the shareswere subject to restrictions on transfer.

 

Duringthe first quarter of 2004, we issued a total of 3,721,532 shares of our commonstock to holders of the Notes pursuant to conversion of their Notes at $1.00per share including accrued interest due at the time of conversion.  The issuance was exempt from registrationunder Rule 506 under the Securities Act of 1933, because all of thenoteholders were accredited, there was no general solicitation, and the shareswere subject to restrictions on transfer.

 

**6.**                          **RESTRUCTURINGCHARGES**

 

During the second quarter of 2005, in response to thecontinuing downturn in the semiconductor capital equipment market, we reducedour workforce across all functional areas by approximately 7% resulting in arestructuring charge of $66,000.  Thischarge reflected severance and other benefit costs associated with thisreduction.  This workforce reductionaffected a total of 7 employees across all functional areas.

**7.**                          **STOCK BASEDCOMPENSATION**

 

Weaccount for stock-based transactions under SFAS No. 123*, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation*.  As permitted by SFAS No. 123, we haveelected to continue following the guidance of APB Opinion No. 25 (asinterpreted by FIN 44) for measurement and recognition of stock-basedtransactions with employees and non-employee directors.  Because stock options have been granted atexercise prices at least equal to the fair market value of the stock at thegrant date, no compensation cost has been recognized for stock options issuedto employees and non-employee directors under the stock option plans.  Stock-based transactions with non-employeesare accounted for in accordance with SFAS No. 123 and relatedinterpretations.

 

In December 2002,the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of FinancialAccounting Standards (SFAS) No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-BasedCompensation - Transition and Disclosure.”  SFAS No. 148 is anamendment to SFAS No. 123 providing alternative methods of transition fora voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-basedemployee compensation and also provides required additional disclosures aboutthe method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. TheCompany adopted the annual disclosure provision of SFAS No. 148 during theyear ended December 31, 2003.  The Company chose to not adoptthe voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting forstock-based employee compensation, pursuant to SFAS No. 148.

 

Ifcompensation cost for our stock option and employee stock purchase plans hadbeen determined based on the fair value at the grant dates, consistent with themethod provided in SFAS No. 148 and SFAS No. 123, our net loss andnet loss per share would have been as follows:

**8.**                                      **RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS**

 

***SFAS No. 153, Exchanges of NonmonetaryAssets.***  In December 2004, FASB issued SFAS No. 153*Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets*amends APB Opinion No. 29, *Accountingfor Nonmonetary Transactions*. APB No. 29 is based on theprinciple that exchanges of nonmonetary assets should be measured based on thefair value of the assets exchanged. The guidance in that Opinion, however,included certain exceptions to that principle. SFAS No. 153 amends APB No. 29to eliminate the exception for nonmonetary exchanges of similar productiveassets and replaces it with a general exception for exchanges of nonmonetaryassets that do not have commercial substance. A nonmonetary exchange hascommercial substance if the future cash flows of the entity are expected tochange significantly as a result of the exchange.  SFAS No. 153 shallbe effective for nonmonetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periodsbeginning after June 15, 2005. Earlier application is permitted fornonmonetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after thedate SFAS No. 153 was issued. SFAS No. 153 shall be appliedprospectively.  We do not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 153 to havea material effect on our financial statements.

 

***SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment***.  In December 2004,FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), *Share-BasedPayment*, that focuses primarily on accounting for transactions inwhich an entity obtains employee services in share-based paymenttransactions.  This statement replaces SFAS No. 123, *Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation*,and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25, *Accountingfor Stock Issued to Employees*. Beginning with our quarterly period that begins January 1, 2006, wewill be required to expense the fair value of employee stock options andsimilar awards.  As a public company, we are allowed to select from twoalternative transition methods, each having different reportingimplications.  We do not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 123R to havea material effect on our financial statements.

## ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT’SDISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

## RESULTS OFOPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

##  

*Thefollowing discussion of our results of operations and financial condition shouldbe read together with the other financial information and condensedconsolidated financial statements included in this document.  This discussion contains forward-lookingstatements that involve risks and uncertainties.  Our actual results could differ materiallyfrom those anticipated in the forward-looking statements as a result of avariety of factors, including those discussed in “Risk Factors” and elsewherein this document.*

 

*Overview*

 

Wesupply equipment automation solutions for the global semiconductor test andassembly manufacturing market.  Oursolutions include automated test handlers, factory automation software and ournew integrated Smart Solutions equipment product line.  We believe that our products cansignificantly improve the productivity, yield and throughput of the back-end,or to the post-wafer manufacturing process, including assembling, packaging,testing and singulating semiconductor devices.

 

Thedemand for our products and services is dependent upon growth in thesemiconductor industry and the increasing automation needs of semiconductormanufacturers and independent test and assembly facilities.  In the fourth quarter of 2000, thesemiconductor industry went into a sharp downturn, which intensified andcontinued through the majority of 2003, resulting in a significant adverseimpact on our business.  In late 2003,worldwide semiconductor bookings began showing signs of stabilization anddemand for our products increased during this period and continued through thefirst half of 2004.  However, in thethird quarter of 2004 the markets again retracted, impacting our financialresults through the end of 2004 and continuing into 2005. At this juncture, thereturn to sustained market growth cannot be predicted in the short term.  As we have disclosed in our Forms 10-K forthe years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, and each of our Forms 10-Qfor the years 2005, 2004 and 2003, a continued or renewed market downturn mightresult in significant losses, charges for inventory revaluation, or assetimpairment or restructuring charges. Consequently, in response to these changing market conditions, inaddition to the actions taken prior to 2004, we took the following additionalsteps in 2004 and 2005:

 

•                  On March 9, 2004 we completed a $5.0 millionsecured financing transaction with an institutional lender.  Under the terms of the three-year agreement,we put in place a $3.0 million secured working capital line of credit and a$2.0 million long-term convertible note. $750,000 of the secured working capital line of credit can be convertedto shares of our common stock by the lender under certain market conditions andinitially at a price of $1.92 per share. The $2.0 million long-term convertible note is convertible to shares ofour common stock initially at a price of $1.79. In connection with the execution of this credit facility, we issued tothe lender a seven-year warrant to purchase 400,000 shares of our common stockat exercise prices ranging from $2.30 to $2.88. The secured lending relationship at the time was terminated as a resultof this transaction.  This creditfacility is secured by all the assets of the Company.  On January 28, 2005, we completed anamendment

----

 

to thefinancing agreement with the institutional lender whereby our payments underthe long-term convertible note have been deferred for one year, resulting in$800,000 of principal payments being rescheduled to begin on February 1,2006.  These payments were previously scheduledto be paid in 2005.  The maturity date ofthe long-term convertible note has also been extended for one year from March 2007to March 2008.  As a part of thisamendment the fixed conversion prices related to both the $3.0 million securedworking capital line of credit and the $2.0 long-term convertible note werereduced to $0.60 and $0.56, respectively. Additionally, we issued the lender a seven-year warrant to purchase150,000 shares of common stock at a price of $0.67.  The fair value of the warrant was determinedusing the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. This resulted in a value of $51,000, which was recorded as in increaseto additional paid-in-capital and a discount to the long-term convertible note.  On April 29, 2005, we completed a financingtransaction with the institutional lender in which we borrowed an additional$2,500,000. The agreement provides for monthly interest payments at a rateequal to prime plus 1.75%.  Beginning sixmonths after the closing, we are required to make monthly payments equal to1/30th of the principal amount until three years after the closing, at whichtime the entire remaining principal and accrued interest is due and payable infull.  The loan is convertible into sharesof the Company’s common stock at a price of $.23 per share.  The Company received net proceeds ofapproximately $2.4 million at the closing. In connection with this transaction, we issued the lender an option to purchase2,556,651 shares at $0.01 per share. The fair value of the option wasdetermined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.  This resulted in a value of $463,000, whichwas recorded as in increase to additional paid-in-capital and a discount to thelong-term convertible note.  Thisdiscount is amortized to interest expense over the three-year agreement.

 

•                  During thefourth quarter of 2004, we reduced our manufacturing workforce by 11% at thetime, resulting in a restructuring charge of $35,000.  This charge reflected severance and otherbenefit costs associated with the reduction. This workforce reduction affected a total of 12 employees all within themanufacturing area.

 

•                  On February 25, 2005, wecompleted a second amendment to the agreement with the holders of our 10%Senior Subordinated Convertible Notes, wherein holders of 80% of the remainingNotes, representing $2.9 million, agreed to continue to accept stock in paymentof interest for the remaining four interest payments through December 24,2006.  As part of this amendment, weagreed to reduce the Note conversion price to $0.85 per share, and use our bestefforts to register the shares with the SEC.

 

•                  During thesecond quarter of 2005, we further reduced our workforce by 7% at the time,resulting in a restructuring charge of $66,000. This charge reflected severanceand other benefit costs associated with the reduction.  This workforce reduction affected a total of7 employees all within the manufacturing area.

 

Mostindustry forecasts are presently predicting that capacity-driven purchases ofcapital equipment are expected to improve in the second half of 2005.  However, the level of improvement and theability for the market to sustain an improvement continues to beuncertain.  Therefore, we will continueto monitor the market and examine opportunities to further reduce our coststhrough further consolidation of operations, limiting capital expenditures,monitoring

inventory purchases and additional strategicrestructuring initiatives.  Certain ofthese types of actions have the potential for further charges in futureperiods.  The impact of a continuingcontraction of the semiconductor capital equipment market has the potential tohave a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results ofoperations, and cash flows.

 

**Critical Accounting Policies**

 

*Revenue Recognition*

 

UnderStaff Accounting Bulletin 104 (“SAB 104”), we recognize revenue upon shipment,as our terms are FOB shipping point, for established equipment products thathave previously satisfied existing customer performance specifications and thatprovide for full payment tied to shipment. Revenue for products that have not previously satisfied customer performancespecifications or from sales where all or a portion of customer payment isbased upon acceptance are only recognized upon customer acceptance.  As such, in periods of increasing shipments,revenues will be deferred if the shipments are for new customers, new productsor the payment terms are tied to acceptance criteria.  Consequently, if these conditions exist, wemay report revenue levels that are not reflective of actual shipment growthrates.  Conversely, in periods ofdecreasing shipments, we potentially could recognize revenues related toshipments made in prior periods.  Ifthese conditions exist, we may report revenue levels that are greater thanactual shipments.

 

*Allowance for Doubtful Accounts*

 

Werecord a provision for doubtful accounts based on specific identification ofour accounts receivable. This involves a degree of judgment based on discussionwith our internal sales and marketing groups, our customer base and theexamination of the financial stability of our customers.  There can be no assurance that our estimateswill match actual amounts ultimately written off.  During periods of downturn in the market forsemiconductor capital equipment or economic recession, a greater degree of riskexists concerning the ultimate collectability of our accounts receivable due tothe impact that these conditions might have on our customer base.

 

*Valuation of Inventories*

 

Ourinventories are stated at the lower of cost or market.  Cost is determined by the first-in, first-out(“FIFO”) method.  We maintain a standardcosting system for our inventories. Assumptions with respect to direct labor utilization, standard directand indirect cost rates, vendor pricing and utilization of factory capacitiesare formulated in the development of our standard costing system.  Sudden or continuing changes in the semiconductorcapital equipment market affecting our shipments can result in significantproduction variances from our standard rates. These variances directly impactour gross profit performance and may cause variability in gross profits resultsfrom reporting period-to-reporting period. Our labor and overhead rates are set for production rates that matchtypical market conditions.  Productionvariances are charged to cost of sales each quarter as incurred. Material standardsare based upon normal purchase volumes. Purchase price variances are charged to costs of sales each quarter asincurred.

 

15

----

 

Provisionsto reduce inventories to the lower of cost or market are made based on a reviewof excess and obsolete inventories through an examination of historicalcomponent consumption, current market demands and shifting producttechnology.  Significant assumptions withrespect to market trends and customer product acceptance are utilized toformulate our provision methods.  Suddenor continuing downward changes in the semiconductor capital equipment marketmay cause us to record additional inventory revaluation charges in future periods.  No write-off provision was made to ourinventories for the quarter and six-month periods ended June 25,2005.  Pursuant to SAB Topic 5-BB,inventory revaluations establish a new cost basis for inventory.  Included in our gross margins dollars for thequarters ended June 25, 2005 and June 26, 2004, were zero and$422,000, respectively, resulting from sales of products that had beenpreviously written down to lower of cost or market.  Included in our gross margins dollars for thesix-months ended June 25, 2005 and June 26, 2004, were $61,000 and$945,000 respectively, resulting from sales of products that had been previouslywritten down to lower of cost or market.

 

*Accrued Warranty*

 

Weprovide a standard thirteen-month warranty program for our equipment products.We record provisions for warranty claims for these products based uponhistorical claim performance.  This approachhas been applied since the inception of the warranty program and involves adegree of subjectivity in that historical performance is used to estimatefuture warranty claims.  There can be noassurance that our estimates will match the actual amount of future warrantyclaims.

 

###### **Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended June 25,2005 and June 26, 2004**

 

Netsales for the three months ended June 25, 2005, decreased $2.9 million or68.7% to $1.3 million compared to $4.2 million for the three months ended June 26,2004.  Product acceptance requirementsrelated to product and customer had no impact on net sales, as there were no timing differences associated with revenuerecognition rules.  The decline in salesis directly attributable to the recent retraction in the semiconductor capitalequipment market.  This decline impactedour sales across all of our product lines.

 

Gross profit for the second quarter of 2005 decreasedby $1.7 million to $453,000, or 34.3% of net sales, from $2.2 million, or 52.3%of net sales, for the comparable period in the prior year.  The decrease in gross margin in the currentyear period is directly attributable to the decline in sales, resulting infixed costs being spread over smaller sales volumes.  We expect the continuing contraction of themarket for semiconductor capital equipment to continue to negatively impact ourgross margin contribution in future periods as well as changes in sales mix.

 

Selling,general and administrative expense in the second quarter of 2005 was $1.1million, or 86.6% of net sales, compared to $1.3 million, or 31.7% of net salesfor the second quarter of 2004.  Theincrease in expense as a percentage of sales is a result of the reduced netsales levels.  The reduction in dollarspending is a result of cost reduction measures completed in 2004 and thereduction of certain variable expenses related to sales.

----

 

Researchand development expense for the second quarter of 2005 was $0.5 million, or37.1% of net sales compared to $0.7 million, or 15.9% of net sales in thesecond quarter of 2004.  The increase inexpense as a percentage of sales is a result of the reduction in net sales.  The reduction in dollar spending is a resultof cost reduction measures completed in 2004.

 

The restructuring charge in the currentyear quarter totaled $66,000 or 5.0% of net sales.  This charge resulted from reductions of ourworkforce across all functional areas in the second quarter of 2005.  This workforce reduction affected 7 employees, across allfunctional areas.

 

Interestincome for the second quarter of 2005 was $7,000 compared to $1,000 in thesecond quarter of 2004.  The increase ininterest income is due to additional funds available for investment compared tothe prior year.  Interest expense andother totaled $314,000 or 23.7% of net sales for the second quarter of 2005compared to $190,000 or 4.5% of net sales in the prior year’s quarter.  The interest expense increase resulted fromincreases in the underlying interest percentage and increases in amortizationcosts associated with debt discounts.

 

Netloss for the quarter ended June 25, 2005 was $1.6 million or $0.06 pershare, as compared to a net income of $9,000, or $0.00 per share in the prioryear period.

 

###### **Results of Operations for the Six Months Ended June 25,2005 and June 26, 2004**

 

Netsales for the six months ended June 25, 2005 decreased $5.2 million or61.3% to $3.3 million compared to compared to $8.5million for the six months ended June 26, 2004.  Product acceptance requirements related toproduct and customer mix had no impact on net sales, as there were no timingdifferences associated with revenue recognition rules.  The decline in sales is directly attributableto the recent retraction in the semiconductor capital equipment market.  This decline impacted our sales across all ofour product lines.

 

Gross profit for the first six months of 2005decreased by $3.1 million to $1.4 million, or 41.3% of net sales, from $4.5million, or 53.0% of net sales, for the comparable period in the prior year.  The decrease in gross margin in the currentyear period is directly attributable to the decline in sales, resulting infixed costs being spread over smaller sales volumes.  We expect the continuing contraction of themarket for semiconductor capital equipment to continue to negatively impact ourgross margin contribution in future periods as well as changes in sales mix.

 

Selling,general and administrative expense for the first six months of 2005 was $2.3 millionor 69.3% of net sales, compared to $2.6 million, or 30.7% of net sales for thefirst six months of 2004.  The increasein expense as a percentage of sales is a result of the reduced net saleslevels.  The reduction in dollar spendingis a result of cost reduction measures completed in 2004 and the reduction ofcertain variable expenses related to sales.

 

Researchand development expense for the first six months of 2005 was $1.1 million, or32.9% of net sales compared to $1.3 million, or 15.6% of net sales for thefirst six months of 2004.  The increasein expense as a percentage of sales is a result of the reduction in netsales.  The reduction in dollar spendingis a result of cost reduction measures completed in 2004.

The restructuring charge for thesix-months ended June 25, 2005 totaled $66,000 or 2.0% of net sales.  This charge resulted from reductions of ourworkforce across all functional areas in the second quarter of 2005.  This workforce reduction affected 7 employees, across allfunctional areas.

 

Interestincome for the first six months of 2005 was $8,000 compared to $2,000 for thecomparable period in the prior year.  Theincrease in interest income is due to additional funds available for investmentcompared to the prior year.  Interestexpense and other totaled $552,000 or 16.8% of net sales for the first sixmonths of 2005 compared to $374,000 or 4.4% of net sales for the comparableperiod in the prior year.  The interestexpense increase resulted from increases in the underlying interest percentageand increases in amortization costs associated with debt discounts.

 

Weincurred a $12,000 loss or 0.1% of sales in the first six months of 2004 fromthe disposition of certain assets resulting from the restructuring of ourleases throughout 2003.

 

Netloss for the six-month period ended June 25, 2005 was $2.6 million or$0.10 per share, as compared to a net income of $185,000, or $0.01 per share inthe prior year period.

 

**Liquidityand Capital Resources**

 

Thenet loss was the primary use of cash in the first six months of 2005.  The increase in accounts receivable andreduction of other accrued liabilites were the primary uses of cash in thefirst six months of 2004.  Cash used inoperations was $1.5 million for the first six months of 2005 and $2.1 millionin the comparable prior year period.

 

Capitalexpenditures were $12,000 for the first six months of 2005 compared to $97,000in the comparable prior year period. The capital spending in the current yearperiod was primarily in the area of information technology equipment. The prioryear spending was primarily in the area of technology equipment and facilitycosts related to our Penang, Malaysia operations.

 

On March 9,2004 we completed a $5.0 million secured financing transaction with aninstitutional lender.  Under the terms ofthe three-year agreement, we put in place a $3.0 million secured workingcapital line of credit and a $2.0 million long-term convertible note.  On January 28, 2005, we completed anamendment to the financing agreement with the lender whereby our payments underthe long-term convertible notes have been deferred for one year, resulting in$800,000 of principal payments being rescheduled to begin on February 1,2006.  These payments were previouslyscheduled to be paid in 2005.  Thematurity date of the long-term convertible note has also been extended for oneyear from March 2007 to March 2008. As a part of this amendment the fixed conversion prices related to boththe $3.0 million secured working capital line of credit and the $2.0 long-termconvertible note were reduced to $0.60 and $0.56, respectively.  On April 29, 2005, we completed an financing transaction with the institutional lender inwhich we borrowed an additional $2,500,000. The agreement provides for monthlyinterest payments at a rate equal to prime plus 1.75%.  Beginning six months after the closing, weare required to make monthly payments equal to 1/30th of the principal amountuntil three years after the closing, at which time the entire remainingprincipal and accrued interest is due and payable in full.  The loan is convertible into shares of theCompany’s common stock at a price of $.23 per share. The Company received netproceeds of approximately $2.4 million at the

closing.  In connection with this transaction, weissued the lender an option to purchase 2,556,651 shares at $0.01 per share.

 

On February 25,2005, we completed a new restructuring agreement with our 10% SeniorConvertible Noteholders. Under the agreement, the Noteholders representing $2.9million in debt, or 80% of the debt existing as of December 31, 2004, haveagreed to continue to accept stock in lieu of cash for their interest paymentsfor the remaining term of the notes through December 2006.  As part of this agreement, the conversionprice of the underlying notes has been reduced from $1.00 per share to $0.85per share for the remaining term of the notes through December 2006.  This results inapproximately $145,000 of interest expense scheduled to be paid in 2005 in cashto be satisfied through the issuance of shares of our common stock.  During the first quarter of 2004, $3.7million of the Notes were converted to equity under the prior agreementresulting in the issuance of 3,710,000 shares of our common stock to thenoteholders.

 

On April 11,2005, judgment was entered against the Company in Superior Court of Californiain the amount of $379,000 plus legal and court costs for a total amount of$547,000 in a lawsuit brought by a prior landlord.  The Company has reached an agreement with thelandlord that will allow the Company to pay the judgment over a 30-month periodfor a total amount of $443,000 plus interest at 10% per annum.

 

Weestimate that we may need to raise additional capital through debt or equityofferings, further modify our existing credit agreements, sell assets, makesignificant structural cost reductions or take a combination of these actions.  We are actively pursing these activities;however, there is no assurance that we will be successful in theseactivities.  If we are unsuccessful inobtaining sufficient financing, restructuring our existing credit agreements,or completing further restructuring initiatives, our operations and financialcondition could be materially negatively impacted and we could be required totake actions that will harm our business, including potentially ceasing certainor all of our operations.

 

**ITEM 3.****QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK**

 

Thevast majority of our transactions are denominated in U.S. dollars; as such,fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates have historically had littleimpact on us.  Inflation has not been asignificant factor in our operations in any of the periods presented, and it isnot expected to affect operations in the future.  At June 25, 2005, our 10% seniorsubordinated convertible debt carries interest at a fixed rate of 10%. Our debtassociated with both our bank line of credit andlong-term convertible notes carries interest at prime plus 1.75% or 7.75% at June 25,2005. There is no material market risk relating to our long-term debt.

 

**IMPACT OFACCOUNTING STANDARDS**

 

In December 2004,FASB issued SFAS No. 153 *Exchanges ofNonmonetary Assets* amends APB Opinion No. 29, *Accounting for Nonmonetary Transactions*.APB No. 29 is based on the principle that exchanges of nonmonetary assetsshould be measured based on the fair

 

19

----

 

value of the assets exchanged. The guidance inthat Opinion, however, included certain exceptions to that principle. SFAS No. 153amends APB No. 29 to eliminate the exception for nonmonetary exchanges ofsimilar productive assets and replaces it with a general exception forexchanges of nonmonetary assets that do not have commercial substance. Anonmonetary exchange has commercial substance if the future cash flows of theentity are expected to change significantly as a result of the exchange. SFAS No. 153 shall be effective for nonmonetary asset exchanges occurringin fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005. Earlier application ispermitted for nonmonetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginningafter the date SFAS No. 153 was issued. SFAS No. 153 shall be appliedprospectively.  We do not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 153 to havea material effect on our financial statements.

 

In December 2004,FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), *Share-BasedPayment*, that focuses primarily on accounting for transactions inwhich an entity obtains employee services in share-based paymenttransactions.  This statement replaces SFAS No. 123, *Accounting for Stock-Based**Compensation*, and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25,*Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees*. Beginning with our quarterly period thatbegins January 1, 2006, we will be required to expense the fair value ofemployee stock options and similar awards.  As a public company, we areallowed to select from two alternative transition methods, each having differentreporting implications.  We do not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 123Rto have a material effect on our financial statements.

 

**RISKFACTORS**

 

Exceptfor the historical information contained herein, certain of the mattersdiscussed in this report are “forward-looking statements” as defined in thePrivate Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  These “forward-looking statements” involvecertain risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, the following: (1) ourability to continue as a “going concern” is uncertain.  The Report of the Independent RegisteredPublic Accounting Firm on the financial statements of the Company as of and forthe fiscal year ended December 31, 2004 included in Form 10-Kcontained an explanatory paragraph that expresses substantial doubt about ourability to continue as a going concern; (2) the continuing of the reneweddownturn in the semiconductor market which often has a disproportionatelynegative impact on manufacturers of semiconductor capital equipment, and whichcould cause us to incur significant cash losses decreasing our cash and exposeus to potential further charges for restructuring, excess and obsoleteinventory and/or impairment of assets; (3) the market for our products ishighly competitive throughout the world, primarily from manufacturers in theUnited States, Europe and Asia, and many of our competitors are considerablylarger and have considerably greater financial resources than we do which mayallow them to develop superior or lower priced products; (4) rapid changesin technology and in tester and handler products, which we must respond tosuccessfully in order for our products to avoid becoming noncompetitive orobsolete; (5) customer acceptance of our new products, including thestrip-based Tapestry handling systems and Smart Solutions products, and othersingulated device handler products in which we have invested significantamounts of inventory; (6) possible loss of any of our key customers, whoaccount for a substantial percentage of our business; (7) the possibleadverse impact of competition in markets which are highly competitive; (8) thepossible adverse impact of economic or political changes in markets we serve;and (9) other factors detailed from time to time in our SEC reports,including but not

limited to the discussion in the Management’sDiscussion & Analysis included in Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,2004.

 

Weexpect losses and negative cash flows to continue at least through theremainder of 2005, which may require us to obtain additional capital or pursueother strategic alternatives including the restructuring of our existing lineof credit and other certain internal expense reduction initiatives.  We are actively pursing these activities;however, there is no assurance that we will be successful in theseactivities.  Further, if future financingrequirements are satisfied through the issuance of equity or debt instruments,shareholders may experience additional dilution in terms of their percentage ofownership of our securities.  In theevent that the we are unable to obtain additionalcapital, restructure our existing lines of credit and / or successfully realizethe benefits of our restructuring initiatives, our operations and financialcondition could be materially negatively impacted and we could be required totake actions that may harm our business, including potentially ceasing certainor all of our operations.

 

Allforecasts and projections in this report are “forward-looking statements,” andare based on our current expectations of our near-term results, based oncurrent information available pertaining to us, including risk factorsdiscussed above.  Actual results coulddiffer materially.
