principles for interim financial information and with the rules and regulations
of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. In the opinion of management,
all adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) considered
necessary for a fair presentation have been included.

    Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
have been condensed or omitted. Therefore, the interim financial statements
should be read in conjunction with the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the fiscal year ended December 31, 1998. Current and future financial statements
may not be directly comparable to the Company's historical financial statements.
The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative
of the results to be expected for the full year.

2.  ACQUISITIONS

    On March 2, 1998, the Company acquired (the "Acquisition") all of the
outstanding shares of capital stock of Valence Technology Inc., a British Virgin
Islands holding company with its principal business operations in Hong Kong and
China ("Valence"). Valence, which conducts its business through its subsidiaries
based in Hong Kong and China, is engaged in the following business activities:
(i) the development and marketing of technology in the form of integrated
circuits (ASICs) to consumer electronic manufacturers and (ii) the sale of
consumer electronic and telecommunications products and components. The
aggregate purchase price of $19,500,000 consisted of approximately $7,400,000 in
cash and 1,680,611 shares of the Company's common stock with a fair value of
$12,105,778. The Company's consolidated statement of operations for the six
months ended June 30, 1998 includes a charge of $17.5 million for the write-off
of acquired in-process research and development expense associated with the
Valence acquisition. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase having an
effective date of February 1, 1998. In connection with such acquisition, three
of the four management shareholders and their respective sole shareholders, each
of whom was a key employee of Valence or one of its subsidiaries, entered into
non-competition agreements with the Company. In consideration for these
agreements and for a nominal cash payment equal to the par value of the shares,
the Company issued 125,000 additional shares of its common stock in the
aggregate to such three shareholders.

                                                          ===========
</TABLE>

    The resulting intangible assets are being amortized on a straight-line basis
over periods ranging from three to eleven years.

    On February 28, 1998, the Company acquired certain rights to a proprietary
technology, Voice Intelligibility Processor, ("VIP") from a third party. The
aggregate consideration, including acquisition costs, was $1,138,710 and was
comprised of $620,178 in cash, 25,000 shares of the Company's common stock with
a fair value of $176,575 and warrants to purchase 100,000 shares of the
Company's common stock at $9.47 per share with a fair value of $341,957. The
purchase price allocated to in-process research and development was charged to
the Company's operations, resulting in a charge of $1,038,710. The remainder of
the purchase price was allocated to an intangible asset and is being amortized
over eight years.

    On May 21, 1998, the Company acquired certain rights to a proprietary
technology, Circle Surround, from a third party. The aggregate consideration,
including acquisition costs, was $834,985 and was comprised of $534,985 in cash
and 35,294 shares of the Company's common stock with a fair value of $300,000.
The purchase price was allocated to an intangible asset and is being amortized
over ten years.

3.  INVESTMENTS AVAILABLE FOR SALE

    The Company has classified its investments as available-for-sale in
accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 115. As
of June 30, 1999, the Company's available-for-sale investments had a cost of
$11,821,629 and an estimated fair value of $11,941,221, based on quoted market
prices. The unrealized gains on these investments of $119,592, net of income
taxes of $49,033, are reported as a separate component of stockholders' equity.

4.  INVENTORIES

    Inventories, which consist of finished goods, are stated at the lower of
cost or net realizable value. Cost is calculated using the weighted average
method and is comprised of material costs and, where applicable, subcontracting
and overhead costs that have been incurred in bringing the inventories to their
present location and condition. Net realizable value represents the estimated
selling price less estimated costs to completion and costs to be incurred in
selling and distribution.

5.  NET LOSS PER COMMON SHARE

    The Company computes earnings per share (EPS) in accordance with SFAS No.
128, "Earnings per Share". SFAS No. 128 requires the Company to disclose basic
and diluted earnings per share.

                                   (UNAUDITED)


6.  CONTINGENCIES

    The Company is subject to legal proceedings and claims that arise in the
normal course of business. While the outcome of these proceedings and claims
cannot be predicted with certainty, management does not believe that the outcome
of any of these matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company's
consolidated financial position or results of operations.

7.  STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

    During the fiscal year ended December 31, 1998 ("Fiscal 1998"), the
Company's Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to 500,000 of the
outstanding shares of the Company's common stock. As of June 30, 1999, 12,000
shares had been repurchased at a cost of $52,500. Such repurchased shares are
reflected as treasury stock in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

8.  SEGMENT INFORMATION

    The Company operates in two business segments: (i) the development and
marketing of technology either in the form of integrated circuits through
Valence (ASICs) or the licensing of technologies developed by the Company to
consumer electronic manufacturers and semiconductor manufacturers and (ii) the
sale of consumer electronic products and components. The Company does not
allocate operating expenses or specific assets to these segments. Therefore,
segment information includes only net revenues, cost of sales and gross margin.
Prior to the acquisition of Valence, the Company operated in the single business
segment of licensing audio technologies.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
        OF OPERATIONS

OVERVIEW

    SRS Labs, Inc. is a developer and provider of technology solutions for the
consumer electronics, computer, game and telecommunications markets. The
Company's principal business activities in these markets include:

-   Developing and licensing audio and voice technologies to consumer electronic
    manufacturers and semiconductor manufacturers around the world; and

-   Through its subsidiary, Valence Technology Inc. and its foreign
    subsidiaries, designing and selling technology solutions through custom
    application specific integrated circuits ("ASICs") to consumer electronic
    manufacturers; and designing, distributing and manufacturing components,
    sub-assemblies and electronics products for manufacturers and retailers
    within the Company's targeted markets.

    From the Company's inception in 1993 until February 1998, the Company
derived substantially all of its revenue from royalties received from technology
licenses. On March 2, 1998, the Company acquired all of the outstanding capital
stock of Valence Technology, Inc., a British Virgin Islands holding company with
its principal business operations in Hong Kong and China ("Valence") for an
aggregate purchase price, excluding non-compete agreements and acquisition
costs, of $19,500,000 consisting of approximately $7,400,000 in cash and
approximately 1,680,611 shares of the Company's common stock, $.001 par value
per share (the "Common Stock"). The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase
with an effective date of February 1, 1998. The acquisition of Valence had a
material impact on the Company's financial statements for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 1998 ("Fiscal 1998") and will continue to have a material impact
for the reporting periods thereafter; accordingly, current and future financial
statements may not be directly comparable to the Company's historical financial
statements.

    SRS currently operates in two business segments: (a) the development and
marketing of technology in the forms of integrated circuits designed and
distributed through Valence and the licensing of technologies developed by the
Company to consumer electronic manufacturers and semiconductor manufacturers and
(b) the sale of consumer electronic products and components. A summary of the
Company's operations and activities by business segment is included in the notes
to the interim consolidated financial statements.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998

Revenues

    Chip and licensing revenue consists of design fees and sales of custom
application specific integrated circuits (ASICs) by Valence to consumer
electronic manufacturers and sales of general purpose ASICs designed by the
Company under the brand name ASP Microelectronics. Licensing revenues are
royalties and technology transfer fees that are currently generated primarily
from the license of the Company's audio technologies. License and royalty
agreements generally provide for the license of technologies for a specified
period of time for either a single fee or a fee based on the number of units
distributed by the licensee. Product and component sales primarily represent the
distribution of semiconductor products, manufacturing components and
sub-assemblies to consumer electronic manufacturers for the Hong Kong and China
markets. Certain sub-assemblies sold by the Company are incorporated in
electronic home entertainment products under the Valence brand name.

    Total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 1999 were $8,203,947
compared to $11,625,370 for the three months ended June 30, 1998. Excluding chip
design revenue, licensing revenue decreased 22.6% from the same period last year
due to the following factors: (a) the shift in the PC market to lower cost
models which cannot bear the cost of performance enhancement technologies such
as those offered by SRS Labs; (b) the Asian financial crisis which reduced
demand for consumer electronics products in the region and negatively impacted
the sales of semiconductor ICs that include the Company's audio technologies;
and (c) the trend by consumer electronic manufacturers to initially adopt the
Company's new technologies into their higher end models with limited volume
potential for the short term. Revenue from custom ASIC chip design and chip
sales related to Valence's activities


                                       12
<PAGE>   13

decreased 7.5% from the same prior year period due to a high volume ASIC project
undertaken in the second quarter of 1998. Revenue from product and component
sales decreased to $4,214,009 for the quarter ended June 30, 1999 from
$7,100,903 for the same prior year quarter primarily due to the Company's
decision to focus on higher margin revenue and deemphasize certain lower margin
distribution activities.

Gross Margin

    Cost of sales consists primarily of fabrication costs, assembly and test
costs, and the cost of materials and overhead from operations. Gross margin as a
percentage of total revenue for the three months ended June 30, 1999 increased
to 40.2% from 36.5% for the same period in 1998. The increase resulted from the
shift in the Company's revenue base towards higher margin chip and licensing
sales and away from lower margin sales from the distribution of components. The
Company is continuing efforts to focus on higher margin activities, but expects
that gross margins in future quarters will continue to be heavily impacted by
the cost of procuring and manufacturing products for sale.

Sales and Marketing

    Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of employee salaries and
sales consultants' fees and related expenses, sales commissions and product
promotion. Sales and marketing expenses were $1,101,937 for the three months
ended June 30, 1999 compared to $1,511,633 for the same prior year period, a
decrease of 27.1%. The decrease was primarily due to a reduction in promotional
activities, including cooperative advertising funding, for the Company's
products and technologies and tighter control on travel expenses for sales and
marketing personnel. As a percentage of total revenues, sales and marketing
expenses increased slightly to 13.4% for the quarter ended June 30, 1999 from
13.0% for the same prior year quarter.

Research and Development

    Research and development expenses consist of salaries and related costs of
employees engaged in ongoing research, design and development activities and
costs for engineering materials and supplies. Research and development expenses
were $789,343 for the three months ended June 30, 1999 compared to $599,631 for
the same prior year period, an increase of 31.6%. The increase is primarily
attributable to headcount added to develop, enhance and implement new audio and
voice technologies and to develop software and Internet applications for the
Company's technologies. As a percentage of total revenues, research and
development expenses increased to 9.6% for the quarter ended June 30, 1999 from
5.2% for the same prior year quarter. Management believes research and
development expenses will increase in the future to support the Company's
product development efforts.

General and Administrative

    General and administrative expenses consist primarily of employee-related
expenses, legal costs associated with the administration of intellectual
property and other professional fees. General and administrative expenses were
$1,409,831 for the three months ended June 30, 1999 compared to $1,368,305 for
the same prior year period, an increase of 3.0%. The increase was primarily
attributable to increased headcount added to subsidiary operations to manage the
acquired operations and to support new business development. The increase was
partially offset by corporate headcount reductions and management's efforts to
better manage outside professional fees. As a percentage of total revenues,
general and administrative expenses increased to 17.2% for the quarter ended
June 30, 1999 from 11.8% for the same prior year quarter.

    As part of the Valence acquisition, the Company allocated a portion of the
purchase price to various intangible assets totaling approximately $5,910,400.
This amount was capitalized and is being amortized on a straight line basis over
periods ranging from three to eleven years with the related amortization expense
of $332,796 and $326,497 for the quarters ended June 30, 1999 and June 30, 1998,
respectively, included in general and administrative expenses. See Note 2 of the
notes to the interim consolidated financial statements for more information
concerning the purchase price allocation associated with the Valence
acquisition.

Other Income, Net

    Net other income consists primarily of interest income, interest expense,
realized gains and losses on the sale of investments and foreign currency
transaction gains and losses. Net other income was $102,056 for the three months
ended June 30, 1999 compared to $184,906 for the same prior year period, a
decrease of 44.8%. The decrease is primarily attributable to lower average cash
and investment balances during the current year quarter as compared to the prior
year quarter due to the cash paid in conjunction with the acquisitions of
Valence and VIP and interest expense on the outstanding borrowings under the
Company's line of credit obtained during the first quarter of Fiscal 1998.

Provision for Income Taxes

    The income tax provision for the three months ended June 30, 1999 was
$96,239 compared to $222,762 for the same prior year period. During the second
quarter of 1999, the Company recognized no additional tax benefit in connection
with taxable losses related to domestic operations and recorded a tax provision
at statutory tax rates in the Asian countries where Valence has its principal
business operations.

SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998

Impact of Valence acquisition

    The Company's consolidated financial results for the six month period ended
June 30, 1998 include the results of the Valence operations beginning as of
February 1, 1998. Accordingly, results for the six months ended June 30, 1999
may not be directly comparable to the results for the six months ended June 30,
1998.

Revenues

    Total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 1999 were $15,920,788
compared to $18,682,766 for the six months ended June 30, 1998. Excluding chip
design revenue, licensing revenue decreased 37.1% from the same period last year
due to the following factors: (a) the shift in the PC market to lower cost
models which cannot bear the cost of performance enhancement technologies such
as those offered by SRS Labs; (b) the Asian financial crisis which reduced
demand for consumer electronics products in the region and negatively impacted
the sales of semiconductor ICs that include the Company's audio technologies;
and (c) the trend by consumer electronic manufacturers to initially adopt the
Company's new technologies into their higher end models with limited volume
potential for the short term. The licensing revenue decrease was offset by an
increase of 36.6% in the custom ASIC chip design and chip sales related to
Valence's activities. Revenue from product and component sales decreased to
$7,826,783 for the six months ended June 30, 1999 from $11,276,338 for the same
prior year period primarily due to the Company's decision to focus on higher
margin revenue and deemphasize certain lower margin distribution activities.

Gross Margin

    Gross margin as a percentage of total revenue for the six months ended June
30, 1999 decreased to 36.1% from 36.9% for the same period in 1998. The decrease
resulted from the shift in the Company's revenue base towards ASIC and general
purpose IC chip sales, which have significantly lower margins than the Company's
historic licensing revenue base. The Company expects that gross margins in
future quarters will continue to be impacted by the cost of procuring and
manufacturing products for sale.

Sales and Marketing

    Sales and marketing expenses were $2,673,936 for the six months ended June
30, 1999 compared to $2,700,527 for the same prior year period, a decrease of
1.0% or relatively unchanged. During the six-month period ended June 30, 1999,
sales and marketing expenses included the cost for additional headcount needed
to promote the Company's new technologies and increased promotional activities
related to product sales in China. These increases were offset by reductions in
cooperative advertising activities related to the Company's technologies and in
travel expenses for sales and marketing personnel. As a percentage of sales,
sales and marketing expenses


                                       14
<PAGE>   15
increased to 16.8% for the six-month period ended June 30, 1999 from 14.5% for
the same prior year period, primarily due to the lower revenue base.

Research and Development

    Research and development expenses were $1,429,361 for the six months ended
June 30, 1999 compared to $998,710 for the same prior year period, an increase
of 43.1%. The increase is primarily attributable to headcount added to support
the increased ASIC design activity, to develop, enhance and implement new audio
and voice technologies and to develop software and Internet applications for the
Company's technologies. As a percentage of total revenues, research and
development expenses increased to 9.0% for the six-month period ended June 30,
1999 from 5.3% for the same prior year period.

General and Administrative

    General and administrative expenses were $3,549,376 for the six months ended
June 30, 1999 compared to $2,621,128 for the same prior year period, an increase
of 35.4%. The increase was primarily attributable to increased headcount added
to corporate and subsidiary operations to manage the acquired operations and to
support new business development, costs incurred for due diligence activities
related to potential acquisitions that did not occur and higher costs associated
with year end reporting activities required of a public company due to the
expanded scope of the Company's operations. As a percentage of total revenues,
general and administrative expenses increased to 22.3% for the six month period
ended June 30, 1999 from 14.0% for the same prior year period.

    Amortization expense related to intangible assets associated with the
Valence acquisition was $665,592 and $527,495 for the six-month periods ended
June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively, and is included in general and
administrative expenses. See Note 2 of the notes to the interim consolidated
financial statements for more information concerning the purchase price
allocation associated with the Valence acquisition.

Acquired In-Process Research and Development

    The Company's Consolidated Statement of Operations for the six months ended
June 30, 1998 includes the one-time charge of $18,510,378 for the write-off of
acquired in-process research and development expenses associated with the
Valence acquisition and the acquisition of certain assets associated with the
VIP technology. The in-process research and development expenses arose from new
product projects that were under development at the date of the acquisition and
expected to eventually lead to new products but had not yet established
technological feasibility and for which no future alternative use was
identified. The valuation of the in-process research and development projects
was based upon the discounted expected future net cash flows of the products
over the products' expected lives, reflecting the estimated stages of completion
of the projects and the estimated costs to complete the projects.

    New product development projects underway at Valence at the time of the
Valence acquisition included, among others, (a) ASICs for consumer electronics,
computing and voice and audio applications, (b) home entertainment systems, (c)
digital multimedia players and (d) digital power amplifiers. The Company
estimated that these projects were approximately 63% complete at the date of
acquisition and estimated that the cost to complete these projects will
aggregate approximately $7 million and will be incurred over a three-year
period.

    New product development projects utilizing the VIP technology at the time of
the VIP acquisition included, among others, digital and analog sound
reinforcement, wireless and non-wireless telecommunications applications,
hearing aid applications, headphone and microphone applications. The Company
estimated that these projects were approximately 62% complete at the date of
acquisition and estimated that the cost to complete these projects will
aggregate approximately $525,000 and will be incurred over a two-year period.

    Uncertainties that could impede the progress of converting a development
project to a developed technology include the availability of financial
resources to complete the project, failure of the technology to function
properly, continued economic feasibility of developed technologies, customer
acceptance, customer demand and customer qualification of such new technology
and general competitive conditions in the industry. There can be no assurance


                                       15
<PAGE>   16

that the acquired in-process research and development projects will be pursued
or successfully completed and commercially introduced.

Other Income, Net

    Net other income consists primarily of interest income, interest expense,
realized gains and losses on the sale of investments and foreign currency
transaction gains and losses. Net other income was $205,403 for the six months
ended June 30, 1999 compared to $382,398 for the same prior year period, a
decrease of 46.3%. The decrease is primarily attributable to lower average cash
and investment balances during the current fiscal year to date as compared to
the prior year due to the cash paid in conjunction with the acquisitions of
Valence and VIP and interest expense on the outstanding borrowings under the
Company's line of credit obtained during the first quarter of Fiscal 1998.

Provision for Income Taxes

    The income tax benefit for the six months ended June 30, 1999 was $213,667
compared to $61,006 for the same prior year period. Related to domestic
operations, the Company recognized tax benefits in connection with federal
refundable taxes which could be recovered through a net operating loss
carryback. In addition, the Company recorded a tax provision at statutory tax
rates in the Asian countries where Valence has its principal business
operations.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

    The Company's principal source of liquidity at June 30, 1999 consisted of
cash, cash equivalents and investments aggregating $19.5 million, as well as
borrowings available under its credit facility. At December 31, 1998, the
Company had cash, cash equivalents and long term investments of approximately
$24.4 million.

    The Company has primarily financed its operations through the cash provided
by its operations and proceeds from its initial public offering of Common Stock
in August 1996. The Company's operating activities utilized $4,645,209 in cash
for the six months ended June 30, 1999 and provided $503,606 for the six months
ended June 30, 1998. The use of cash in operations for the six-month period
ended June 30, 1999 was primarily due to the reduction in accounts payable
related to major suppliers of the Company's component distribution business, as
well as the Company's loss from operations. Partially offsetting this decrease
was an increase in cash due to a reduction in accounts receivable and other
current assets that resulted from the collection of certain large balances due
from SRS and Valence customers that were outstanding at December 31, 1998.

    As described above, the Company acquired Valence and additional technologies
during the first quarter of Fiscal 1998. (See Note 2 to the interim consolidated
financial statements.)

    On March 4, 1998, the Company obtained a revolving line of credit with a
bank which expires on June 1, 2000 and is secured by certain of the Company's
cash, cash equivalents and investments. As of June 30, 1999, approximately
$435,000 in cash and cash equivalents and $10.9 million in investments were
pledged as collateral for the line of credit. The total availability under the
line of credit is the lesser of $10 million or a percentage of the fair market
value of the collateral. The line of credit bears interest at the bank's prime
rate or LIBOR plus 0.75%. The Company had $8.0 million outstanding under the
line of credit as of June 30, 1999. As a result of the acquisition of Valence,
the Company provided Valence $8.0 million to pay off its short-term debt and
other obligations. These funds were provided by borrowings on the
above-referenced line of credit.

    In August 1999, the Company entered into a new line of credit agreement with
another bank that expires on April 1, 2001. The terms of the new agreement are
substantially the same as the previous agreement which was replaced.

    The Company anticipates that its primary uses of working capital in future
periods will be to acquire new technologies, to provide Valence with additional
working capital and to fund increased costs for additional sales and engineering
headcount and marketing activities associated with the introduction of new
technologies and products into the market.

    Based on current plans and business conditions, the Company believes that
its cash, cash equivalents, investments and/or available borrowings under its
line of credit, together with any amounts generated from operations, will be
sufficient to meet the Company's operating and capital requirements for the
foreseeable future.


                                       16

However, there can be no assurance that the Company will not be required to seek
other financing sooner or that such financing, if required, will be available on
terms satisfactory to the Company.

YEAR 2000 READINESS DISCLOSURE

    The Company is currently in the process of addressing a problem that is
facing all users of automated information systems. The "Year 2000 issue" arises
out of the fact that many of the world's computer systems currently record years
in a two-digit format. Such computer systems will be unable to properly
interpret dates beyond the year 1999, which could lead to business disruptions
in the U.S. and internationally.

    The Company and its subsidiaries have identified the following areas which
could be impacted by the Year 2000 issue: Company products; internally used
systems and software; products or services provided by key third parties; and
the ability of chip partners, licensees or customers to process business
transactions relating to chip design and licensing revenue and product and
component sales.

    During Fiscal 1998, the Company and its subsidiaries reviewed its internal
systems including those which support manufacturing process control and
financial and general business operations. The review consisted of an evaluation
of significant internal hardware systems and major software application programs
for their ability to accurately recognize and process dates properly in the Year
2000 and beyond. As a result of this evaluation, the Company identified certain
systems which require upgrades to be Year 2000 ready, including certain business
software applications. The Company is in the process of installing a new
computer system in its overseas operation and has been assured by the software
and hardware providers that these systems will be fully compliant with the Year
2000. The Company believes that installation will be complete by the end of the
third quarter of 1999. The Company's products do not have any material Year 2000
problems.

    In addition, the Company and its subsidiaries are in the process of
assessing and documenting the compliance of their major customers, suppliers and
vendors. Management believes that third-party relationships upon which the
Company relies represent the greatest risk with respect to the Year 2000 issue,
because the Company cannot guarantee that third parties will be able to
adequately assess and address their Year 2000 compliance issues in a timely
manner. As a consequence, the Company can give no assurances that issues related
to Year 2000 would not have a material adverse effect on future results of
operations or financial condition.

    Total costs relating to the Company's compliance efforts, based on
management's best estimates, are estimated to be approximately $350,000.

    Should the Company not be completely successful in mitigating internal and
external Year 2000 risks, the likely worst case scenario could be a system
failure causing disruptions of operations, including, among other things, a
temporary inability to process transactions, manufacture products, send invoices
or engage in similar normal business activities at the Company or its vendors
and suppliers. The Company currently is developing a contingency plan with
respect to potential Year 2000 failures of its suppliers or customers. However,
if such failures would occur, depending upon their duration and severity, there
is no guarantee that the contingency plan would mitigate the effects of these
failures, and they could have a material adverse effect on the Company's
business, results of operations and financial condition.

    The information set forth above under this caption "Year 2000 Readiness
Disclosure" relates to the Company's efforts to address the Year 2000 concerns
regarding the Company's (a) operations, (b) products and technologies licensed
or sold to third parties and (c) major suppliers and customers. Such statements
are intended as Year 2000 Statements and Year 2000 Readiness Disclosures and are
subject to the Year 2000 Information Readiness Act."

FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION AND CERTAIN FACTORS

    Included in this Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations are certain forward-looking statements
within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995,
reflecting management's current expectations. Examples of such forward-looking
statements include the expectations of the Company with respect to its strategy
and the shift in revenue mix which is expected to be weighted more toward chip
and electronic component sales and less to licensing. Although the Company
believes


                                       17
<PAGE>   18

that its expectations are based upon reasonable assumptions, there can be no
assurances that the Company's financial goals will be realized. Such
forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and
other factors that may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of
the Company, or industry results, to be materially different from any future
results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such
forward-looking statements. Numerous factors may affect the Company's actual
results and may cause results to differ materially from those expressed in
forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of the Company. Such factors
include, among others, those set forth below. The Company assumes no obligation
to update the forward-looking information to reflect actual results or changes
in the factors affecting such forward-looking information.

Quarterly Fluctuations

    The Company's operating results may fluctuate from those in prior quarters
and will continue to be subject to quarterly and other fluctuations due to a
variety of factors, including the extent to which the Company's licensees
incorporate the Company's technologies into their products, the timing of orders
from and the shipments to major customers, the timing of new product
introductions by the Company, the gain or loss of significant customers,
competitive pressures on selling prices, the market acceptance of new or
enhanced versions of the Company's technologies, the rate that the Company's
semiconductor licensees manufacture and distribute chips to consumer electronic
manufacturers, and fluctuations in general economic conditions, particularly
those affecting the consumer electronics market. In addition, due to the
Company's dependence on the consumer electronics market, the substantial
seasonality of sales in the market has impacted the Company's revenues and net
income. In particular, the Company believes that there is seasonality relating
to the Christmas season, generally, and the Chinese New Year within the Asia
region, which fall into the fourth and first quarters, respectively. As a
result, the Company believes that period-to-period comparisons of its results of
operations are not necessarily meaningful and should not be relied upon as
indications of future performance.

Changes to the Business Model/Integration of Valence/Refinement of Asian
Strategy

    From the Company's inception in 1993 through 1997, the Company derived
substantially all of its revenues from licensing activities. As a result of the
acquisition of Valence, the Company has added business operations engaged in the
design and sale of ASICs and other semiconductor products; the design,
manufacture and sale of consumer electronics components and products; and the
distribution of components and products within mainland China and throughout
Asia. These operations differ substantially from the Company's previous business
model, and future operating results could be affected by a variety of factors,
including the timing of customer orders, the timing of development revenue,
changes in the mix of products distributed and the mix of distribution channels
employed, the emergence of new industry standards, product obsolescence and
changes in pricing policies by the Company, its competitors or its suppliers.

    The integration of certain operations following the Valence acquisition has
required, and will continue to require, the dedication of management and other
personnel resources which may temporarily distract them from the day-to-day
business of the combined company. The geographic separation of these operations
places additional strain on the Company's resources. In addition, the Company's
significant operations in China and Asia have required refinement to adapt to
the changing market conditions in that region. This refinement may impact
certain of the Company's current business directions, including Valence, as the
Company attempts to position itself to maximize penetration of selected growth
segments in that region and to identify and focus on those segments that
contribute the highest margins. The Company's operations in Asia, and
internationally in general, also are subject to risks of unexpected changes in,
or impositions of, legislative or regulatory requirements.

    The acquisition of Valence has added significant diversity to the Company's
overall business structure and the Company's opportunities. The Company
recognizes that in the presence of such corporate diversity, in particular with
regard to the semiconductor industry, there will always exist a potential for a
conflict among sales channels between the Company and certain of the Company's
technology licensees. Although the operations of the Company's licensing
business and those of Valence are generally complementary, there can be no
assurances that sales channel conflicts will not arise. If such potential
conflicts do materialize, the Company may or may not be able to mitigate the
effect of such perceived conflicts, which, if not resolved, may impact the
results of operations.


                                       18
<PAGE>   19

Currency Risk/Stability of Asian Markets

    The Company expects that international sales will continue to represent a
significant portion of total revenues. To date, all of the Company's licensing
revenues have been denominated in U.S. dollars and most costs have been incurred
in U.S. dollars. It is the Company's expectation that licensing revenues will
continue to be denominated in U.S. dollars for the foreseeable future. With its
acquisition of Valence and the Company's anticipated expansion of its business
in China and other parts of Asia, the Company's consolidated operations and
financial results could be significantly affected by risks associated with
international activities, including economic and labor conditions, political
instability, tax laws (including U.S. taxes on foreign subsidiaries) and changes
in the value of the U.S. dollar versus the local currency in which the products
are sold. In addition, the Company's valuation of assets recorded as a result of
the Valence acquisition may also be adversely impacted by the currency
fluctuations relative to the U.S. dollar. The Company continues to actively
monitor its foreign exchange exposure and to evaluate strategies to reduce its
foreign exchange risk. At such time that the Company determines the benefits of
such strategies outweigh the associated costs, the Company intends to implement
appropriate strategies. However, there is no guarantee that the Company will
take steps to insure against such risks, and should such risks occur, there is
no guarantee that the Company will not be significantly impacted. Countries in
the Asia Pacific region continue to experience weakness in their currency,
banking and equity markets. These weaknesses could adversely affect consumer
demand for Valence's products, the U.S. dollar value of the Company's and its
subsidiaries' foreign currency denominated sales, the availability and supply of
product components to Valence and ultimately, the Company's consolidated results
of operations.

Competitive Pressures

    The Company's existing and potential competitors include both large and
emerging domestic and international companies that have substantially greater
financial, manufacturing, technical, marketing, distribution and other
resources. The Company's present or future competitors may be able to develop
products and technologies comparable or superior to those offered by the
Company, and to adapt more quickly than the Company to new technologies or
evolving market needs. The Company believes that the competitive factors
affecting the market for the Company's products and technologies include product
performance, price and quality; product functionality and features; and the ease
of integration and implementation of the products and technologies with other
hardware and software components in the manufacturer's products. In addition,
the markets in which the Company competes are intensely competitive and are
characterized by rapid technological changes, declining average sales prices and
rapid product obsolescence. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the
Company will be able to continue to compete effectively in its respective
markets, that competition will not intensify or that future competition will not
have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, operating results,
cash flows and financial condition.

Importance of Intellectual Property

    The Company's ability to compete may be affected by its ability to protect
its proprietary information. The Company has filed several U.S. and foreign
patent applications and to date has a number of issued U.S. and foreign patents
covering various aspects of its technologies. There can be no assurance that the
steps taken by the Company to protect its intellectual property will be adequate
to prevent misappropriation of its technology or that the Company's competitors
will not independently develop technologies that are substantially equivalent or
superior to the Company's technology. In addition, the laws of certain foreign
countries may not protect the Company's intellectual property rights to the same
extent as do the laws of the U.S. The semiconductor industry is characterized by
frequent claims and litigation regarding patent and other property rights. There
can be no assurances that third parties will not assert additional claims or
initiate litigation against the Company or its customers with respect to
existing or future products. In addition, the Company may initiate claims or
litigation against third parties for infringement of the Company's proprietary
rights or to determine the scope and validity of the proprietary rights of the
Company or others.

Management of Growth; Dependence on Key Personnel

    The Company has experienced rapid growth and expansion with the acquisition
of Valence. This acquisition has placed, and will continue to place, a
significant strain on its administrative, operational and financial resources,
and has increased, and will continue to increase, the level of responsibility
for both existing and new management


                                       19
<PAGE>   20
personnel. The Company's future success depends in part on the continued service
of its key engineering, sales, marketing and executive personnel, including
highly skilled semiconductor IC design personnel. The Company anticipates that
any future growth will require it to recruit and hire a number of new personnel
in engineering, operations, finance, sales and marketing. Competition for such
personnel is intense, and there can be no assurance that the Company can retain
and recruit necessary personnel to operate its business and support future
growth. The Company's ability to manage its growth successfully also will
require the Company to continue to expand and improve its administrative,
operational, management and financial systems and controls.

Volatility of Stock Price

    The trading price of the Common Stock has been, and will likely continue to
be, subject to wide fluctuations in response to quarterly variations in the
Company's operating results, announcements of new products or technological
innovations by the Company or its competitors, general market fluctuations and
other events and factors. Changes in earnings estimates made by brokerage firms
and industry analysts relating to the markets in which the Company does
business, or relating to the Company specifically, have in the past resulted in,
and could in the future result in, an immediate effect on the market price of
the Common Stock.

Acquisitions

    From time-to-time, the Company expects to make acquisitions of businesses or
technologies that are complementary to its business strategy. Such future
acquisitions would expose the Company to risks commonly encountered in
acquisitions of businesses. Such risks include, among others, difficulty of
assimilating the operations, information systems and personnel of the acquired
businesses; the potential disruption of the Company's ongoing business; and the
inability of management to maximize the financial and strategic position of the
Company through successful incorporation of the acquired technologies, employees
and customers. There can be no assurance that any potential acquisition will be
consummated or, if consummated, that it will not have a material adverse effect
on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

    The Company is exposed to a variety of risks, including foreign currency
fluctuations and changes in interest rates affecting the cost of its debt.

Foreign Currency

    The Company has subsidiary operations in Hong Kong and China, and
accordingly, the Company is exposed to transaction gains and losses that could
result from changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The Company uses the
local currency (Hong Kong dollars) as the functional currency for its
subsidiaries. Translation adjustments resulting from the process of translating
foreign currency financial statements into U.S. dollars were nil in Fiscal 1998
and in the six month period ended June 30, 1999 due to the fact that the value
of the Hong Kong dollar is currently pegged to the U.S. dollar and the exchange
rate remained constant throughout the period. Under the current circumstances,
the Company believes that the foreign currency market risk is not material to
its consolidated results of operations. The Company continues to actively
monitor its foreign exchange exposure and to evaluate possible strategies to
reduce its risk. At such time that the benefits of such strategies outweigh the
associated costs, the Company intends to implement appropriate strategies.
However, there is no guarantee that the Company will take steps to insure
against such risks, and should such risks occur, there is no guarantee that the
Company will not be significantly impacted.

Interest Rates

    The Company's line of credit bears interest based on the lending bank's
prime rate or LIBOR. The interest rate on the balance of $8 million outstanding
at June 30, 1999 was 5.71%. The Company believes that if interest rates were to
increase by as much as 10%, the short term impact on the Company's consolidated
financial statements would not be material. If circumstances in the market
change materially, the Company intends to evaluate possible strategies to reduce
its risk related to changes in interest rates.

                           PART II - OTHER INFORMATION


ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

    On April 23, 1999, Dolby Laboratories, Inc. filed a civil lawsuit in the
United States District Court for the Central District of California against the
Company and Smart Devices, Inc. ("Smart Devices"). Smart Devices is a licensee
of the Company under the SRS(R) and CIRCLE SURROUND(R) technologies. The
complaint seeks both preliminary and permanent injunctions, monetary damages in
an unspecified amount and further equitable relief, based upon allegations of
false advertising, unfair competition, trademark infringement and false labeling
relating to the CIRCLE SURROUND EX trademark. On May 17, 1999, the Company filed
an answer to such complaint generally denying the allegations made by the
plaintiff under each claim for relief and denying that the plaintiff is entitled
to any relief under each stated claim for relief. In addition, the Company also
responded by alleging affirmative defenses to each claim for relief. The Company
is not providing a defense for Smart Devices. Although the Company cannot
predict the likely outcome of the lawsuit at this time, it intends to vigorously
defend the case and believes that the final outcome will not have a material
adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial condition.
