NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. BUSINESS ACTIVITIES AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Intevac, Inc.'s ("Intevac" or the "Company") primary business is the design, manufacture and sale of complex capital equipment that is used to manufacture products such as thin-film disks for computer disk drives and flat panel displays (the "Equipment Business"). The Company also develops highly sensitive electro-optical devices under government sponsored R&D contracts (the "Photonics Business").
The Equipment Business is a leading supplier of sputtering systems used to manufacture thin-film disks for computer hard disk drives. Sputtering is a complex vacuum deposition process used to deposit multiple thin-film layers on a disk. The Equipment Business also realizes revenues from the sales of disk lubrication equipment, contact stop-start ("CSS") test equipment, flat panel display ("FPD") manufacturing equipment and electron beam processing equipment. Spare parts and after-sale service are also sold to purchasers of the Company's equipment, and sales of components are made to other manufacturers of vacuum equipment.
The Photonics Business began in 1995 when the Company's night vision business was sold. The terms of the sale permitted Intevac to utilize the night vision technology for non-competitive products. The majority of Photonics Business revenues are from government sponsored R&D contracts. The Photonics Business has been developing technology that permits highly sensitive detection in the short-wave infrared spectrum in electron sources with very precise characteristics. This development work is aimed at creating new products for both military and industrial applications.
The financial information at June 26, 1999 and for the three- and six-month periods ended June 26, 1999 and June 27, 1998 is unaudited, but includes all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) that the Company considers necessary for a fair presentation of the financial information set forth herein, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information, the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, it does not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for annual financial statements. For further information, refer to the Consolidated Financial Statements and footnotes thereto included or incorporated by reference in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1998.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results inevitably will differ from those estimates, and such differences may be material to the financial statements.
The results for the three- and six-month periods ended June 26, 1999 are not considered indicative of the results to be expected for any future period or for the entire year.

7. SUBSEQUENT EVENT
On July 28, 1999, the Company and CVC Products, Inc. ("CVC") agreed to a settlement of CVC's patent infringement claim. Under the terms of the settlement, Intevac paid $525,000 to CVC and agreed to future royalty payments on sales of sputter sources covered by the CVC patent. An accrual of the payment to CVC is included in the results for the three- and six-month periods ended June 26, 1999.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements, which involve risks and uncertainties. Words such as "believes", "expects", "anticipates" and the like indicate forward-looking statements. The Company's actual results may differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause such a difference include, but are not limited to, the risk factors set forth elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q under "Certain Factors Which May Affect Future Operating Results" and in other documents the Company files from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed in March 1999, Form 10-Q's and Form 8-K's.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Three Months Ended June 26, 1999 and June 27, 1998
Net revenues. Net revenues consist primarily of sales of the Company's disk sputtering systems and related equipment used to manufacture thin-film disks for computer hard disk drives, system components, electron beam processing equipment, flat panel display manufacturing equipment and related equipment and components ("Equipment") and contract research and development related to the development of highly sensitive electro-optical devices under government sponsored R&D contracts and sales of derivative products ("Photonics"). Net revenues from system sales are recognized upon customer acceptance. Net revenues from sales of related equipment and system components are recognized upon product shipment. Contract research and development revenue is recognized in accordance with contract terms, typically as costs are incurred. Net revenues decreased by 71% to $10.3 million for the three months ended June 26, 1999 from $35.8 million for the three months ended June 27, 1998. Net revenues from Equipment sales declined to $8.1 million for the three months ended June 26, 1999 from $34.8 million for the three months ended June 27, 1998. The decrease in net revenues from Equipment was due primarily to a decrease in sales of disk manufacturing equipment, and to a lesser extent, a decrease in sales of flat panel manufacturing equipment. Net revenues from Photonics increased to $2.1 million for the three months ended June 26, 1999 from $1.0 million for the three months ended June 27, 1998. The increase in net revenues from Photonics was due primarily to an increase in sales of contract research and development, and to a lesser extent, sales of prototype Laser Illuminated Viewing and Ranging ("LIVAR") camera systems. The Company expects that total revenues will continue in the $10 million to $15 million range for each of the next two quarters.
International sales decreased by 73% to $6.9 million for the three months ended June 26, 1999 from $25.6 million for the three months ended June 27, 1998. The decrease in international sales was primarily due to a decrease in net revenues from disk manufacturing equipment. International sales constituted 67% of net revenues for the three months ended June 26, 1999 and 72% of net revenues for the three months ended June 27, 1998.
Backlog. The Company's backlog of orders for its products was $22.9 million at June 26, 1999 and $28.1 million at June 27, 1998. The reduction in backlog was primarily the result of a lower backlog of orders for disk and flat panel manufacturing equipment, which was partially offset by an higher backlog of orders in Photonics. The Company includes in backlog the value of purchase orders for its products that have scheduled delivery dates.
Gross margin. Cost of net revenues consists primarily of purchased materials, fabrication, assembly, test, installation, warranty costs, scrap and costs attributable to contract research and development. Gross margin was 1.8% for the three months ended June 26, 1999 as compared to 25.3% for the three months ended June 27, 1998. Gross margins declined as the result of the sale of three used disk sputtering systems at heavily discounted prices, recognition of the sale of the Company's first production rapid thermal processing system which incurred high initial costs to complete and then integrate into its customer's production environment, payment of $0.5M as part of the settlement of the CVC patent claim and from underabsorbtion of manufacturing overhead due to low manufacturing volume. The Company expects that gross margins will continue to be depressed for the next two quarters as the result of low manufacturing volume.
Research and development. Research and development expense consists primarily of prototype materials, salaries and related costs of employees engaged in ongoing research, design and development activities for disk manufacturing equipment, flat panel manufacturing equipment, electron beam processing equipment and research by the Photonics Division. Company funded research and development expense increased by 11% to $3.8 million for the three months ended June 26, 1999 from $3.4 million for the three months ended June 27, 1998, representing 36.9% and 9.5%, respectively, of net revenue. This increase was primarily the result of increased expense for the development of Photonics products.
Research and development expenses do not include costs of $1.5 million and $0.9 million for the three-month periods ended June 26, 1999 and June 27, 1998 related to contract research and development performed by the Company's Photonics business. These expenses are included in cost of goods sold.
Research and development expenses also do not include costs of $0.1 million in the three months ended June 26, 1999, reimbursed under the terms of a research and development cost sharing agreement with the Company's Japanese flat panel manufacturing equipment development partner. Since 1993 the Company has received $9.5 million of funds under this cost sharing agreement.
Selling, general and administrative. Selling, general and administrative expense consists primarily of selling, marketing, customer support, financial, travel, management, legal and professional services. Domestic sales are made by the Company's direct sales force, whereas international sales are made by distributors that typically provide sales, installation, warranty and ongoing customer support. The Company also has a subsidiary in Singapore to support customers in Southeast Asia. The Company markets its flat panel manufacturing equipment to the Far East through its Japanese joint venture, IMAT. Selling, general and administrative expense decreased by 29% to $2.1 million for the three months ended June 26, 1999 from $2.9 million for the three months ended June 27, 1998, representing 20.3% and 8.2%, respectively, of net revenue. The primary reason for the decrease was a lower level of selling, general and administrative expense in the Equipment Business implemented as a result of reduced revenues. The lower level of expense was primarily due to a decline in selling, general and administrative headcount to 41 employees at June 26, 1999 from 90 employees at June 27, 1998 as the result of reductions in force in the Company's staff of contract and regular employees implemented in August of 1998 and March of 1999 and the reallocation of certain administrative employees to operations.
Interest expense. Interest expense consists primarily of interest on the Company's convertible notes, and to a lesser extent, interest on approximately $2.0 million of long-term debt related to the purchase of Cathode Technology in 1996. Interest expense declined to $1.0 million in the three-month period ended June 26, 1999 from $1.1 million in the three month period ended June 27, 1998. The decline in interest expense was primarily the result of the repurchase by the Company of $4.0 million of its 6.5% Convertible Notes Due 2004 (the "Convertible Notes") during the three month period ended June 26, 1999. The repurchase reduced the balance of Convertible Notes outstanding to $53.5 million at June 26, 1999 from $57.5 million at June 27, 1998.
Interest income and other, net. Interest income and other, net consists primarily of interest income on the Company's investments, foreign currency hedging gains and losses, early payment discounts on the purchase of inventories, goods and services and the Company's 49% share of the loss incurred by IMAT. Interest income and other, net decreased by 20% to $0.8 million for the three months ended June 26, 1999 from $1.0 million for the three months ended June 27, 1998 primarily as the result of decreases in interest income and foreign currency hedging gains which were partially offset by improved results at the Company's joint venture, IMAT.
Discontinued operations. In the three month period ended June 27, 1998 the Company recorded a gain from discontinued operations of $0.5 million resulting from the reimbursement of excess warranty reserves related to the sale of the Company's night vision business in 1995.
6 1/2% Convertible Subordinated Notes Due 2004. In July of 1998, the Company's Board of Directors approved the repurchase in the open market of up to $19.0 of the Convertible Notes. The Company
repurchased $4.0 million of these notes during the three months ended June 26, 1999 from which it recognized a gain of $1.0 million, net of applicable taxes.
Provision for (benefit from) income taxes. The Company's estimated effective tax rate for the three months ended June 26, 1999 was a benefit rate of 38% compared to a 33% effective tax rate for the three months ended June 27, 1998. The Company's estimated effective tax rates are based on estimated effective tax rates for the respective years. The Company's projected annual effective tax rates for 1999 and 1998 differ from the applicable statutory rates primarily due to benefits from the Company's foreign sales corporation and tax exempt interest income partially offset by nondeductible goodwill amortization.
Six Months Ended June 26, 1999 and June 27, 1998
Net revenues. Net revenues decreased by 69% to $22.0 million for the six months ended June 26, 1999 from $70.0 million for the six months ended June 27, 1998. Net revenues from Equipment sales declined to $18.4 million for the six months ended June 26, 1999 from $67.6 million for the six months ended June 27, 1998. The decrease in net revenues from Equipment was due primarily to a decrease in sales of disk manufacturing equipment, and to a lesser extent, a decrease in sales of flat panel manufacturing equipment and electron beam processing equipment. Net revenues from Photonics increased to $3.6 million for the six months ended June 26, 1999 from $2.4 million for the six months ended June 27, 1998. The increase in net revenues from Photonics was due primarily to a increase in sales of contract research and development, and to a lesser extent, sales of prototype LIVAR camera systems.
International sales decreased by 68% to $14.3 million for the six months ended June 26, 1999 from $44.2 million for the six months ended June 27, 1998. The decrease in international sales was primarily due to a decrease in net revenues from disk manufacturing equipment, and to a lesser extent, a decrease in net revenues from the sale of electron beam processing equipment. International sales constituted 65% of net revenues for the six months ended June 26, 1999 and 63% of net revenues for the six months ended June 27, 1998.
Gross margin. Gross margin was 5.3% for the six months ended June 26, 1999 as compared to 28.1% for the six months ended June 27, 1998. Gross margins declined as the result of the sale of three used disk sputtering systems at heavily discounted prices, establishment of a $0.4 million cost to market reserve on a used MDP-250B disk sputtering system remaining in inventory, high initial costs to complete and then integrate into its customer's production environment the Company's first production rapid thermal processing system environment, payment of $0.5M as part of the settlement of the CVC patent claim and underabsorbtion of manufacturing overhead due to low manufacturing volume.
Research and development. Company funded research and development expense increased by 13% to $7.9 million for the six months ended June 26, 1999 from $7.0 million for the six months ended June 27, 1998, representing 35.7% and 9.9%, respectively, of net revenue. This increase was primarily the result of increased expense for the development of disk manufacturing equipment and Photonics products, which was partially offset by decreased expense for the development of flat panel manufacturing equipment.
Research and development expenses do not include costs of $2.7 million and $1.9 million for the six-month periods ended June 26, 1999 and June 27, 1998 related to contract research and development performed by the Company's Photonics business. These expenses are included in cost of goods sold.
Research and development expenses also do not include costs of $0.2 million in the six months ended June 26, 1999, reimbursed under the terms of a research and development cost sharing agreement with the Company's Japanese flat panel manufacturing equipment development partner.
Selling, general and administrative. Selling, general and administrative
expense decreased by 34% to $4.0 million for the six months ended June 26, 1999
from $6.1 million for the six months ended June 27, 1998, representing 18.1% and
8.6%, respectively, of net revenue. The primary reason for the decrease was a
lower level of selling, general and administrative expense in the Equipment
Business implemented as a result of reduced revenues. The lower level of expense
was primarily due to a decline in selling, general and administrative headcount
to 45 employees at June 26, 1999 from 91 employees at June 27, 1998 as the
result
of reductions in force in the Company's staff of contract and regular employees implemented in March of 1998, August of 1998 and March of 1999 and the reallocation of certain administrative employees to operations.
Restructuring expense (gain). Restructuring expense (gain) was ($22,000) and $1.2 million in the six-month periods ended June 26, 1999 and June 27, 1998, respectively. In March 1998, the Company's management adopted a restructuring plan to relocate its Rapid Thermal Processing Operation from Rocklin, California to the Company's Santa Clara, California headquarters and to close the Rocklin facility. The restructuring plan also included an approximate 20% reduction in the worldwide staff of the Company's contract and regular employees. As a result of this plan, the Company expensed approximately $1.2 million of restructuring expense in the six months ended June 27, 1998. The restructuring expense included approximately $0.8 million related to closure of the Rocklin facility and approximately $0.4 million of severance pay for terminated employees. In March 1999 the Company completed a reduction in force of approximately 10% of its worldwide staff and incurred employee severance costs of approximately $115,000. In March 1999 the Company also negotiated an early termination to its lease commitment in Rocklin which resulted in a $132,000 reduction to previously expensed closure costs. This $132,000 credit to restructuring costs was partially offset by the $115,000 of restructuring costs related to the Company's March 1999 reduction in force.
Interest expense. Interest expense declined to $2.0 million in the six months ended June 26, 1999 from $2.1 million in the six months ended June 27, 1998. The decline in interest expense was primarily the result of the repurchase by the Company of $4.0 million of its Convertible Notes during the six months ended June 26, 1999.
Interest income and other, net. Interest income and other, net increased by 12% to $1.9 million for the six months ended June 26, 1999 from $1.7 million for the six months ended June 27, 1998. The increase was primarily the result of gains on foreign currency hedging which were partially offset by lower interest income.
Discontinued operations. In the six months ended June 27, 1998 the Company recorded a gain from discontinued operations of $1.0 million resulting from the reimbursement and reversal of excess warranty reserves related to the sale of the Company's night vision business in 1995.
6 1/2% Convertible Subordinated Notes Due 2004. The Company repurchased $4.0 million of its Convertible Notes during the six months ended June 26, 1999 from which it recognized a gain of $1.0 million, net of applicable taxes.
Provision for(benefit from) income taxes. The Company's estimated effective tax rate for the six months ended June 26, 1999 was a benefit rate of 38% compared to a 33% effective tax rate for the six months ended June 27, 1998. The Company's estimated effective tax rates are based on estimated effective tax rates for the respective years. The Company's projected annual effective tax rates for 1999 and 1998 differ from the applicable statutory rates primarily due to benefits from the Company's foreign sales corporation and tax exempt interest income partially offset by nondeductible goodwill amortization.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's operating activities used cash of $4.1 million for the six months ended June 26, 1999. The cash used was due primarily to the net loss incurred by the Company, which was partially offset by depreciation and amortization and the non-cash gain resulting from the repurchase of $4.0 million of the Company's Convertible Notes.
The Company's investing activities provided cash of $7.4 million for the six months ended June 26, 1999 as a result of the net sale of investments, which was partially offset by the purchase of fixed assets.
The Company's financing activities used cash of $3.3 million for the six months ended June 26, 1999 as the result of the repurchase of the Company's convertible notes and the Company's common stock which was partially offset by the sale of the Company's common stock to its employees through the Company's employee benefit plans.
YEAR 2000
The Company is preparing for the impact of the arrival of the Year 2000 on its business, as well as on the business of its customers, suppliers and business partners. The "Year 2000 Issue" is a term used to describe the problems created by systems that are unable to accurately interpret dates after December 31, 1999. These problems are derived predominately from the fact that many software programs have historically categorized "years" in a two-digit format. The Year 2000 Issue creates potential risks for the Company, including potential problems in the Company's products as well as in the Information Technology ("IT") and non-IT systems that the Company uses in its business operations. The Company may also be exposed to risks from third parties with which the Company interacts who fail to adequately address their own Year 2000 Issues.
Intevac is in the process of implementing plans to address Year 2000 Issues both within and outside the Company. In addressing the Year 2000 issues and risks, the Company has focused, and will continue to focus, its efforts on the Company's enterprise-wide and departmental operations, products, critical suppliers (including service providers) and key customers. Within Intevac, these efforts are intended to encompass all major categories of computer systems in use by the Company, including those utilized in manufacturing, engineering, sales, finance and human resources. The Company's risk assessment includes understanding the Year 2000 readiness of its critical suppliers. The Company's risk assessment process associated with critical suppliers includes soliciting and analyzing responses to questionnaires, and, where necessary, follow-up with the supplier.
The Company is utilizing a phased approach to identifying and remediating Year 2000 Issues. The first phase, compiling an inventory of all systems that face risks from Year 2000 Issues, was substantially completed by year-end 1998. The evaluation and remediation phases are now essentially complete. The validation and implementation phases are targeted for completion in the third quarter of 1999. The Company is acting to remedy issues as they are revealed, while it simultaneously completes its assessment of Year 2000 risks.
Corrective actions completed to date include the implementation of system upgrades to the Company's materials and financial software, upgrades to file server operating systems, replacement of payroll and human resource software, and patching of all major desktop software applications. The Company issued a Product Information Bulletin to customers outlining the Year 2000 Issues faced by the Company's principal product, the MDP-250 sputtering system, and proposed fixes.
Cost incurred to date in addressing Year 2000 Issues have not been material. Based on assessment and correction projects underway, the Company does not expect the total cost of addressing the Year 2000 Issue to be material. As the Company's risk assessment and correction activities continue, these cost estimates may change. In addition, the Company's total cost estimate does not include potential costs related to any customer or other claims resulting from the Company's failure to adequately correct Year 2000 issues.
The Company is taking all steps it believes are appropriate to identify and resolve any Year 2000 Issues. Although the Company does not expect any significant disruption to its operations or operating results as a result of Year 2000 Issues, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to identify, assess and correct all Year 2000 Issues in a timely or successful manner. The Company's failure to identify, assess and correct Year 2000 Issues in a timely manner could have a material, adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.
The Company currently believes that its most reasonably likely worst case Year 2000 scenario would relate to problems with systems of third parties which would create the greatest risks with infrastructure, including water and sewer services, electricity, transportation, telecommunications and critical suppliers of materials and supplies. The Company has not yet prepared a contingency plan for dealing with these potential problems. The Company will be assessing various scenarios and will prepare the necessary contingency plan over the course of 1999.
The foregoing statements regarding the Company's Year 2000 plans and the Company's expectation for resolving these issues and costs associated therewith are forward-looking statements and actual results could vary. The Company's success in addressing Year 2000 Issues could be impacted by the severity of the
problems to be resolved within the Company, by Year 2000 Issues affecting its suppliers and service providers and by the costs associated with third party consultants and software necessary to address these issues.
CERTAIN FACTORS WHICH MAY AFFECT FUTURE OPERATING RESULTS
Prolonged Downturn in the Disk Drive Industry
The disk drive industry has historically been cyclical and experienced periods of under- and over-supply of product. The industry's current downturn began in 1997 and has been particularly severe and long-lived. Most manufacturers of hard disk drives and their suppliers have reported substantial losses during this period. Many of these manufacturers attribute their problems to an excess supply of hard drives, or in the case of component suppliers, an excess supply of components for hard drives (including thin-film disks) and extremely competitive pricing.
The rapid increase in areal density of thin-film disks used in hard disk drives, combined with the increasing shift to low cost computers, has resulted in a rapid reduction in both the average selling price of hard disk drives and in the average number of disks required per hard disk drive. The result is that the overall unit demand for thin-film disks has been approximately flat since 1997 despite the continuing growth in unit shipments of personal computers and hard disk drives. This prolonged period of relatively flat demand for thin-film disks, combined with poor industry financial performance and the high cost of adding new capacity, has significantly reduced demand for new capital equipment used to manufacture thin-film disks used in disk drives, including the systems manufactured and marketed by the Company. The Company is not able to accurately predict when industry conditions will become more favorable to the sale of the Company's equipment.
Rapid Technical Change
The Company's ability to remain competitive requires substantial investments in research and development to advance its technologies. The failure to develop, manufacture and market new systems, or to enhance existing systems, would have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. In the past, the Company has experienced delays from time to time in the introduction of, and certain technical difficulties with, certain of its systems and enhancements. In addition, the Company's competitors can be expected to continue to develop and introduce new and enhanced products, any of which could cause a decline in market demand for the Company's systems or a reduction in the Company's margins as a result of intensified price competition.
The Company's success in developing and selling equipment depends upon a variety of factors, including accurate prediction of future customer requirements, technology advances, cost of ownership, introduction of new products on schedule, cost-effective manufacturing and product performance in the field. The Company's new product decisions and development commitments must anticipate continuously evolving industry requirements significantly in advance of sales. Any failure to accurately predict customer requirements and to develop new generations of products to meet those requirements would have a sustained material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. New product transitions could adversely affect sales of existing systems, and product introductions could contribute to quarterly fluctuations in operating results as orders for new products commence and orders for existing products decline. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in selecting, developing, manufacturing and marketing new products or enhancements of existing products.
For example, changes in the manufacturing processes for thin-film disks could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. The Company anticipates continued rapid changes in the requirements of the disk drive industry and thin-film disk manufacturing technologies. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to develop, manufacture and sell systems that respond adequately to such changes. In addition, the computer disk drive industry is subject to constantly evolving technological standards. There can be no assurance that future technological innovations will not reduce demand for thin-film disks. The Company's business, financial condition and results of
operations could be materially adversely affected by any trend toward technology that would replace thin-film disks as a storage medium.
Competition
The Company experiences intense competition in the Equipment Business. For example, the Company's disk sputtering business experiences competition worldwide from two principal competitors, Balzers A.G. ("Balzers") and Anelva Corporation ("Anelva"), each of which is a large manufacturer of complex vacuum equipment and thin-film disk manufacturing systems and has sold a substantial number of thin-film disk sputtering machines worldwide. Both Balzers and Anelva have substantially greater financial, technical, marketing, manufacturing and other resources than the Company. There can be no assurance that the Company's competitors will not develop enhancements to, or future generations of, competitive products that will offer superior price or performance features or that new competitors will not enter the Company's markets and develop such enhanced products.
Given the lengthy sales cycle and the significant investment required to integrate equipment into the manufacturing process, the Company believes that once a manufacturer has selected a particular supplier's equipment for a specific application, that manufacturer generally relies upon that supplier's equipment and frequently will continue to purchase any additional equipment for that application from the same supplier. Accordingly, competition for customers in the equipment industry is intense, and suppliers of equipment may offer substantial pricing concessions and incentives to attract new customers or retain existing customers.
International Operations and Foreign Exchange Exposure
Sales and operating activities outside of the United States are subject to certain inherent risks, including fluctuations in the value of the United States dollar relative to foreign currencies, tariffs, quotas, taxes and other market barriers, political and economic instability, restrictions on the export or import of technology, potentially limited intellectual property protection, difficulties in staffing and managing international operations and potentially adverse tax consequences. The Company earns a significant portion of its revenue from international sales, and these sales have included the installation of the Company's products in European countries and Far Eastern countries such as Japan, Singapore, Malaysia, Korea, Thailand, and Taiwan. All of the Far Eastern countries with which the Company does business have banking systems and foreign currencies that have experienced serious troubles and therefore subject the Company's customers to substantial business risks. There can be no assurance that any of these factors will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition or results of operations. In particular, although the Company's international sales have historically been denominated in United States dollars, such sales will not all be denominated in dollars in the future, and currency exchange fluctuations in countries where the Company does business could materially adversely the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.
The Company's two principal competitors for disk sputtering equipment are based in foreign countries and have cost structures based on foreign currencies. Accordingly, currency fluctuations could cause the Company's products to be more, or less, competitive than its competitors' products. Currency fluctuations will decrease, or increase, the Company's cost structure relative to those of its competitors, which could impact the Company's gross margins. For example, during 1998 the exchange rate for Japanese Yen fluctuated between approximately 113 Yen/$ and 147 Yen/$. The Company generally quotes and sells its products in US dollars. However, for certain Japanese customers, the Company quotes and sells its products in Japanese Yen. The Company, from time to time, enters into foreign currency contracts in an effort to reduce the overall risk of currency fluctuations to the Company's business. However, there can be no assurance that the offer and sale of products in foreign denominated currencies, and the related foreign currency hedging activities will not materially adversely affect the Company's financial condition and results of operations.
Fluctuation in Operating Results
Over the last ten quarters the Company's operating income or (loss) as a percentage of net revenues has fluctuated between approximately (55%) to 16% of net revenues. The Company anticipates that its operating
margin will continue to fluctuate. 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.
Diversification and Potential Acquisitions
The Company routinely evaluates acquisition candidates and other diversification strategies. There can be no assurance that the Company's efforts in these areas will be successful. The Company completed one acquisition in 1997 and three acquisitions in 1996. Any future acquisition may result in potentially dilutive issuance of equity securities, the write-off of in-process research and development and the assumption of debt and contingent liabilities, any of which could materially adversely affect the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations. Additionally, as a result of the Company's ongoing repurchase of its stock in the open market, the Company may not be able to use the "pooling of interests" method of accounting in some acquisitions, and the Company may therefore be required to amortize any intangible assets acquired in connection with any acquisition.
Additionally, unanticipated expenses may be incurred relating to the integration of technologies, research and development, and administrative functions. Any acquisition will involve numerous risks, including difficulties in the assimilation of the acquired company's employees, operations and products, uncertainties associated with operating in new markets and working with new customers, and the potential loss of the acquired company's key employees.
Manufacturing
The Company's Equipment products have a large number of components and are highly complex systems. The Company's Photonics products are complex devices that require highly sophisticated manufacturing techniques utilizing advanced materials science and vacuum processing. The Company may experience delays and technical and manufacturing difficulties in future introductions or volume production of new systems and devices. In addition, some of the systems built by the Company must be customized to meet individual customer site or operating requirements. The Company has limited manufacturing capacity and may be unable to complete the development or meet the technical specifications of its new systems and devices or to manufacture and ship these systems and devices in a timely manner. Such an occurrence would materially adversely affect the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations as well as its relationships with customers. In addition, the Company may incur substantial unanticipated costs early in a product's life cycle, such as increased cost of materials due to expediting charges, other purchasing inefficiencies and greater than expected installation and support costs which cannot be passed on to the customer. In certain instances, the Company is dependent upon a sole supplier or a limited number of suppliers, or has qualified only a single or limited number of suppliers, for certain complex components or sub-assemblies utilized in its products. Any of such events could materially adversely affect the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.
Intellectual Property
There can be no assurance that any of the Company's patent applications will be allowed or that any of the allowed applications will be issued as patents. There can be no assurance that any patent owned by the Company will not be invalidated, deemed unenforceable, circumvented or challenged, that the rights granted thereunder will provide competitive advantages to the Company or that any of the Company's pending or future patent applications will be issued with claims of the scope sought by the Company, if at all. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that others will not develop similar products, duplicate the Company's products or design around the patents owned by the Company. In addition, there can be no assurance that foreign patent rights, intellectual property laws or the Company's agreements will protect the Company's intellectual property rights. Failure to protect the Company's intellectual property rights could have a material adverse effect upon the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.
There has been substantial litigation in the technology industry regarding intellectual property rights. The Company has from time to time received claims that it is infringing third parties' intellectual property rights. In August 1993, Rockwell International Corporation ("Rockwell") sued the Federal government alleging infringement of certain patent rights with respect to the contracts the Federal government has had with a number of companies, including Intevac. The Federal government has notified Intevac that it may be liable in connection with contracts for certain products in the Company's discontinued night vision business. In January 1999, a settlement was negotiated between the Federal government and Rockwell and approved by the court. Under the settlement, all of Intevac's exposure related to government sales is eliminated. Rockwell has not pursued any claims related to non-governmental sales of the products in question.
There can be no assurance that third parties will not in the future claim infringement by the Company with respect to current or future patents, trademarks, or other proprietary rights relating to the Company's disk sputtering systems, flat panel manufacturing equipment or other products. Any present or future claims, with or without merit, could be time-consuming, result in costly litigation, cause product shipment delays or require the Company to enter into royalty or licensing agreements. Such royalty or licensing agreements, if required, may not be available on terms acceptable to the Company, or at all. Any of the foregoing could have a material adverse effect upon the Company's business, operating results and financial condition.
In addition, the Company believes that one of its competitors may be infringing the Company's patent rights in connection with products currently being offered by this competitor. Although the Company has not undertaken formal legal proceedings, the Company has informed this competitor that the Company believes its patent rights are being infringed and that the Company may undertake litigation to protect its patent rights if necessary. If undertaken, such litigation could be costly, time-consuming and result in legal claims being made against the Company. This could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, operating results and financial condition, and, in addition, there could be no assurance that the Company would ultimately prevail in any such litigation.
Leverage
In connection with the sale of $57.5 million of its 6 1/2% Convertible Subordinated Notes Due 2004 in February 1997, the Company incurred a substantial increase in the ratio of long-term debt to total capitalization (shareholders' equity plus long-term debt). The ratio at December 31, 1998 and 1997 was approximately 59.5% and 58.4%, respectively. As a result of this indebtedness, the Company incurred substantial principal and interest obligations. The degree to which the Company is leveraged could have a material adverse effect on the Company's ability to obtain additional financing for working capital, acquisitions or other purposes and could make it more vulnerable to industry downturns and competitive pressures. The Company's ability to meet its debt service obligations will be dependent on the Company's future performance, which will be subject to financial, business and other factors affecting the operations of the Company, many of which are beyond its control.
Retention of Employees
The Company believes that it has good relations with its employees. None of the Company's employees is represented by a labor union, and the Company has never experienced a work stoppage. The Company's operating results will depend in significant part upon its ability to retain and attract qualified management, engineering, marketing, manufacturing, customer support, sales and administrative personnel. Competition in northern California for such personnel is intense and there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in attracting and retaining such personnel. The failure to attract and retain such personnel could make it difficult to undertake or could significantly delay the Company's research and development efforts and any necessary expansion of its manufacturing capabilities or other activities, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, financial condition and results of operations.
Possible Volatility of Stock Price
The Company believes that factors such as announcements of developments related to the Company's business, fluctuations in the Company's operating results, failure to meet securities analysts' expectations, general conditions in the disk drive and thin-film media manufacturing industries and the worldwide economy, announcements of technological innovations, new systems or product enhancements by the Company or its competitors, fluctuations in the level of cooperative development funding, acquisitions, changes in governmental regulations, developments in patents or other intellectual property rights and changes in the Company's relationships with customers and suppliers could cause the price of the Company's Common Stock to fluctuate substantially. In addition, in recent years the stock market in general, and the market for small capitalization and high technology stocks in particular, has experienced extreme price fluctuations which have often been unrelated to the operating performance of affected companies. Such fluctuations could adversely affect the market price of the Company's Common Stock.
Concentration of Stock Ownership
Based on the shares outstanding on December 31, 1998, the present directors and their affiliates and executive officers, in the aggregate, own beneficially approximately 56.7% of the Company's outstanding shares of Common Stock. As a result, these shareholders, acting together, are able to effectively control all matters requiring approval by the shareholders of the Company, including the election of a majority of the directors and approval of significant corporate transactions.
Environmental Regulations
The Company is subject to a variety of governmental regulations relating to the use, storage, discharge, handling, emission, generation, manufacture, treatment and disposal of toxic or other hazardous substances, chemicals, materials or waste. Any failure to comply with current or future regulations could result in substantial civil penalties or criminal fines being imposed on the Company or its officers, directors or employees, suspension of production, alteration of its manufacturing process or cessation of operations. Such regulations could require the Company to acquire expensive remediation or abatement equipment or to incur substantial expenses to comply with environmental regulations. Any failure by the Company to properly manage the use, disposal or storage of, or adequately restrict the release of, hazardous or toxic substances could subject the Company to significant liabilities.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Reference is made to Part III, Item 7, Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk, in the Registrant's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1998.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
On June 12 , 1996 two Australian Army Black Hawk Helicopters collided in midair during nighttime maneuvers. Eighteen Australian servicemen perished and twelve were injured. The Company was named as a defendant in a lawsuit related to this crash. The lawsuit was filed in Stamford, Connecticut Superior Court on June 10, 1999 by Mark Durkin, the administrator of the estates of the deceased crew members, the injured crew members and the spouses of the deceased and/or injured crew members. Included in the suit's allegations are assertions that the crash was caused by defective night vision goggles. The suit names three US manufacturers of military night vision goggles, of which Intevac was one. The suit also names the manufacturer of the pilot's helmets, two manufacturers of night vision system test equipment and the manufacturer of the helicopter. The suit claims damages for 13 personnel killed in the crash, 5 personnel injured in the crash and spouses of those killed or injured.
It is known that the Australian Army established a Board of Inquiry to investigate the accident and that the Board of Inquiry concluded that the accident was not caused by defective night vision goggles. Preliminary investigations lead the Company to believe that it has meritorious defenses against the Durkin suit. However, there can be no assurance that the resolution of the suit will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, operating results and financial condition.
