NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

CYBEROPTICS CORPORATION

1. INTERIM REPORTING:

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements of CyberOptics Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries ("we", "us" or "our") presented herein as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, and for the three and six month periods ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 and 2019, are unaudited but, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments necessary, for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.

The results of operations for the three and six month periods ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 do not necessarily indicate the results to be expected for the full year. The December 31, 2019 consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited consolidated financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

2. COVID-19 PANDEMIC:

In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus ("Covid-1919") was first identified, and in March 2020, the World Health Organization categorized Covid-1919 as a pandemic. The Covid-1919 pandemic is affecting our customers, suppliers, service providers and employees, and the ultimate impacts of Covid-1919 on our business, results of operations, liquidity and prospects are not fully known at this time. The Covid-1919 outbreak has had a relatively minimal impact on our business to date. However, the following ~~risks~~factors have affected and ~~uncertainties are impacting~~may continue to affect our business:

·	Our key factories are located in Minnesota and Singapore. Both of these locations have been subject to government mandated shelter-in-place orders. Because our operations have been deemed essential, we were able to keep our factories up and running while the shelter-in-place mandates were in effect. If the pandemic worsens, it is possible that our operations may not be deemed essential under future government mandated shelter-in-place orders, and we may be required to shut-down factory operations. We have periodically implemented split-shifts for our factory operations to minimize the number of employees in our facilities at any given time, however, this has not affected our production capacity. Most of the time, our non-factory employees are working remotely. To date, the shelter-in-place mandates and remote work arrangements have had a minimal impact on operations, but material negative effects on our business could result if the pandemic worsens and continues for an extended period of time.

·	Sales of some products, mainly our SQ3000 Multi-Function inspection and measurement systems and MX memory module inspection products, require customer acceptance due to performance or other criteria that is considered more than a formality. Many of our customer’s factories have remained open during the Covid-19 pandemic because they are deemed to be essential under government shelter-in-place mandates. However, global travel restrictions and quarantine measures have hindered our ability to obtain customer acceptances of certain of our products in the second quarter of 2020. Continuing or new global travel restrictions and quarantine measures could hinder our ability to obtain customer acceptances in a timely manner in the future, and therefore impact the timing of revenue recognition.

·	We have experienced some supply disruptions due to the Covid-19 pandemic, mainly from suppliers not deemed essential by shelter-in-place mandates in certain countries. Key supply chain disruptions have been resolved to date. However, supply chain disruptions could increase significantly if the pandemic worsens and continues for an extended period of time. To date, our on-hand inventories have been sufficient to enable us to mitigate supply disruptions.

·Our key factories are located in Minnesota and Singapore. Both of these locations are subject to government mandated shelter-in-place orders. Because our operations have been deemed essential, we have been able to keep our factories up and running while the shelter-in-place mandates are in effect. We have implemented split-shifts for our factory operations to minimize the number of employees in our facilities at any given time, however, this has not affected our production capacity. Our non-factory employees are required to work remotely. To date, the shelter-in-place mandates have had a minimal impact to operations, but that could change if the pandemic worsens and is more than temporary.

·~~Sales of some products, mainly our SQ3000~~ Multi-Function inspection and measurement systems and MX memory module inspection products, require customer acceptance due to performance or other criteria that is considered more than a formality. Many of our customer’s factories have remained open during the Covid-19 pandemic because they are deemed to be essential under most government shelter-in-place mandates. However, this could change if the pandemic worsens and continuing global travel restrictions could hinder our ability to obtain customer acceptances in a timely manner, and therefore impact the timing of revenue recognition.

·~~We have experienced some supply disruptions due to the Covid-~~19 pandemic, mainly from suppliers not deemed essential by shelter-in-place mandates in certain countries. Key supply chain disruptions have mostly been resolved currently, but that could change significantly if the pandemic worsens and is more than temporary. To date, our on-hand inventories have been sufficient to enable us to work through any supply disruptions.

Although we cannot estimate the length or gravity of the impact of the ~~Covid-~~19Covid-19 outbreak at this time, if the pandemic continues as expected for the foreseeable future, it may have ana material adverse effect on our results of future operations, financial position and liquidity in fiscal year 2020. and beyond.

CARES Act

On March 27, 2020, the ~~"Coronavirus~~Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security ~~(CARES)~~Act (the "CARES Act") was signed into law in the United States. The CARES Act, among other things, includes provisions relating to refundable payroll tax credits, deferment of employer side social security payments, net operating loss carryback periods and alternative tax credit refunds. ItThe CARES Act also appropriated funds for the ~~SBA~~Small Business Administration Paycheck Protection Program loans that are forgivable in certain circumstances to promote continued employment. We have analyzed the provisions of the CARES Act and presently do not believe it will have a material ~~impact on~~benefit to our financial condition, results of operations or liquidity. However, we will continue to monitor the impact the CARES Act ~~may~~could have on our business.

Singapore Jobs Support Program

The Singapore Government implemented a jobs support program in 2020 that is intended to support businesses and encourage retention of employees during the period of economic uncertainty caused by the Covid-19 pandemic. Under the jobs support program, the Singapore Government has co-funded a portion of the gross monthly wages paid to local employees. The Singapore jobs support program reduced operating expenses in the second quarter of 2020 by approximately $276,000. This program is presently scheduled to end in August 2020.

3. RECENT ACCOUNTING DEVELOPMENTS:

In January 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued guidance on simplifying the test for goodwill impairment, ASU 2017-04, Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment ("ASU 2017-04"). Under ASU 2017-04, goodwill impairment is measured as the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, but not in an amount in excess of the carrying value of goodwill. The new standard eliminated the requirement to determine goodwill impairment by calculating the implied fair value of goodwill by hypothetically assigning the fair value of a reporting unit to all of its assets and liabilities as if that reporting unit had been acquired in a business combination. ASU 2017-04 was effective for impairment tests beginning January 1, 2020. Our adoption of ASU 2017-04 did not have any impact on our consolidated financial statements.

~~There are no~~No other new accounting pronouncements ~~that~~ are expected to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.

4. REVENUE RECOGNITION:

Our revenue performance obligations are primarily satisfied at a point in time and limited revenue streams are satisfied over time as work progresses.

See Note 11 for additional information regarding disaggregation of revenue.

Contract Balances

Contract assets consist of unbilled amounts from sales where we recognize the revenue over time and the revenue recognized exceeds the amount billed to the customer at a point in time. Accounts and trade notes receivable are recorded when the right to payment becomes unconditional. Contract liabilities consist of payments received in advance of performance under the contract. Contract liabilities are recognized as revenue when we perform under the contract.

The following summarizes our contract assets and contract liabilities:


(In thousands)	March 31, 2020		December 31, 2019		June 30, 2020		December 31, 2019
Contract assets, included in other current assets	$	27	$	2	$	4	$	2
Contract liabilities - advance customer payments	$	406	$	389	$	661	$	389
Contract liabilities - deferred warranty revenue	$	309	$	275	$	323	$	275

Changes in contract assets in the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 and ~~the three months ended March 31,~~June 30, 2019 resulted from unbilled amounts under sensor product arrangements and longer duration 3D scanning service projects in which revenue is recognized over time. Changes in contract liabilities primarily resulted from reclassification of beginning contract liabilities to revenue as performance obligations were satisfied or from cash received in advance and not recognized as revenue. See Note 9 for changes in contractual obligations related to deferred warranty revenue. Unsatisfied performance obligations are generally expected to be recognized as revenue over the next one to three years. There were 0 impairment losses for contract assets in the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 or ~~the three months ended March 31,~~June 30, 2019.

The following summarizes the amounts reclassified from beginning contract liabilities to revenue:

Our investments in marketable debt securities all have maturities of less than five years. Net pre-tax unrealized gains for marketable debt securities of $~~224,000~~345,000 at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 and $84,000 at December 31, 2019 have been recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss in stockholders’ equity. We have determined that the net pre-tax unrealized gains and losses for marketable debt securities at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 were caused by fluctuations in interest rates and are temporary in nature. We review our marketable debt securities to identify and evaluate investments that have indications of possible impairment. Factors considered in determining whether a loss is other-than-temporary include the length of time and extent to which fair value has been less than the cost basis, credit quality and our ability and intent to hold the investment for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in market value. NaN marketable securities were sold in the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 or ~~the three months ended~~ ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019. See Note 6 for additional information regarding the fair value of our investments in marketable securities.

~~Investments~~At June 30, 2020, all of our investments in marketable debt securities were in an unrealized gain position. At December 31, 2019, investments in marketable debt securities in an unrealized loss position ~~are~~were as follows:

6. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS:

We determine the fair value of our assets and liabilities based on the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. We use a fair value hierarchy with three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last is considered unobservable, to measure fair value. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1). The next highest priority is based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in non-active markets or other observable inputs (Level 2). The lowest priority is given to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The following provides information regarding fair value measurements for our marketable securities as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 according to the three-level fair value hierarchy:

During the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 and the year ended December 31, 2019, we owned no Level 3 securities, and there were no transfers within the three level hierarchy. A significant transfer is recognized when the inputs used to value a security have been changed which merit a transfer between the levels of the valuation hierarchy.

The fair value for our U.S. government and agency obligations, corporate debt securities and certificates of deposit and asset backed securities are determined based on valuations provided by external investment managers who obtain them from a variety of industry standard data providers. The fair value for our equity security is based on a quoted market price obtained from an active market. The carrying amounts of financial instruments included in cash equivalents approximate their related fair values due to the short-term maturities of those instruments. See Note 5 for additional information regarding our investments in marketable securities.

Non-financial assets such as equipment and leasehold improvements, goodwill and intangible assets and right-of-use assets for operating leases are subject to non-recurring fair value measurements if they are deemed impaired. We had 0 re-measurements of non-financial assets to fair value in the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 or ~~the three months ended March 31,~~June 30, 2019. See Note 10 for our analysis regarding potential impairment of goodwill, other long-lived assets and intangibles.

The fair value for trade notes receivable is based on discounted future cash flows using current interest rates that would be offered for a similar transaction to a similarly situated customer. The difference between the carrying amount and estimated fair value for trade notes receivable is immaterial. If measured at fair value in the financial statements, these financial instruments would be classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. At ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, our trade notes receivable were deemed to be fully collectible, and no0 trade notes receivable were past due more than 90 days or in a non-accrual status with respect to interest income.

7. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION:

We have 3 share-based compensation plans that are administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. We have (a) an Employee Stock Incentive Plan for officers, other employees, consultants and independent contractors under which we have granted options and restricted stock units to officers and other employees, (b) an Employee Stock Purchase Plan under which shares of our common stock may be acquired by employees at discounted prices, and (c) a Non-Employee Director Stock Plan that provides for automatic grants of restricted shares of our common stock to non-employee directors. New shares of our common stock are issued upon stock option exercises, vesting of restricted stock units, issuances of shares to board members and issuances of shares under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan.

Employee Stock Incentive Plan

As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, there were 185,351 shares of common stock reserved in the aggregate for issuance pursuant to future awards under our Employee Stock Incentive Plan and ~~558,654~~468,104 shares of common stock reserved in the aggregate for issuance pursuant to outstanding awards under such plan. Although our Compensation Committee has authority to issue options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, share grants and other share-based benefits under our Employee Stock Incentive Plan, to date only restricted stock units and stock options have been granted under the plan. Options have been granted at an option price per share equal to the market value of our common stock on the date of grant, vest over a four year period and expire seven years after the date of grant. Restricted stock units vest over a four year period and entitle the holders to 1 share of our common stock for each restricted stock unit. Reserved shares underlying outstanding awards, including options and restricted stock units, that are forfeited are available again under the Employee Stock Incentive Plan for future grant.

Non-Employee Director Stock Plan

As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, there were ~~52,000~~44,000 shares of common stock reserved in the aggregate for issuance pursuant to future restricted share grants under our Non-Employee Director Stock Plan and ~~16,000~~12,000 shares of common stock reserved in the aggregate for issuance pursuant to outstanding stock option awards under our Non-Employee Director Stock Plan (which previously authorized the granting of stock options to non-employee directors). Under the terms of the plan, each non-employee director receives annual restricted share grants of 2,000 shares of our common stock on the date of each annual meeting at which such director is elected to serve on the board. The annual restricted share grants of common stock vest in 4 equal quarterly installments during the year after the grant date, provided the non-employee director is still serving as a director on the applicable vesting date.

On the date of our ~~2019~~2020 annual meeting, we issued a total of 8,000 shares of our common stock to our non-employee directors, which were restricted as specified in the Non-Employee Director Stock Plan. The shares granted at the ~~2019~~2020 annual meeting had an aggregate fair market value on the date of grant equal to ~~$138,000~~$226,720 (grant date fair value of ~~$17.26~~$28.34 per share). As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, ~~6,000~~none of these shares were vested. The aggregate fair value of the ~~2,000~~8,000 unvested shares based on the closing price of our common stock on ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 was ~~$34,000.~~ $258,000.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

We have an Employee Stock Purchase Plan available to eligible U.S. employees. Under the terms of the plan, eligible employees may designate from 1% to 10% of their compensation to be withheld through payroll deductions, up to a maximum of $6,500 in each plan year, for the purchase of common stock at 85% of the lower of the market price on the first or last day of the offering period (which begins on August 1st and ends on July 31st of each year). NoNaN shares were purchased under this plan in the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 or the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, 156,688 shares remain available for future purchase under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan.

Share-Based Compensation Information

All share-based compensation awarded to our employees and non-employee directors, including grants of stock options, restricted stock units and restricted shares, are required to be recognized as an expense in our consolidated statements of operations based on the grant date fair value of the award. We utilize the straight-line method of expense recognition over the award's service period for our graded vesting options. The fair value of stock options has been determined as of the date of grant using the Black-Scholes model. We have classified employee share-based compensation within our statements of operations in the same manner as our cash-based employee compensation costs.

Pre-tax share-based compensation expense in the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 totaled ~~$272,000,~~$286,000, and included $114,000 for stock options, ~~$23,000~~$25,000 for our Employee Stock Purchase Plan, $101,000 for restricted stock units and ~~$34,000~~$46,000 for restricted shares. Pre-tax share-based compensation expense in the six months ended June 30, 2020 totaled $558,000, and included $228,000 for stock options, $48,000 for our Employee Stock Purchase Plan, $202,000 for restricted stock units and $80,000 for restricted shares.

Warranty costs:

We provide for the estimated cost of product warranties, which cover products for periods ranging from one to three years, at the time revenue is recognized. While we engage in extensive product quality programs and processes, including actively monitoring and evaluating the quality of components provided by suppliers, warranty obligations do arise. These obligations are affected by product failure rates, the cost of materials used in correcting product failures and service delivery expenses incurred to make these corrections. If actual product failure rates and material or service delivery costs differ from our estimates, revisions to the estimated warranty liability are required and could be material. At the end of each reporting period, we revise our estimated warranty liability based on these factors. The current portion of our warranty liability is included as a component of accrued expenses. The long-term portion of our warranty liability is included as a component of other liabilities.

A reconciliation of the changes in our estimated warranty liability is as follows:

10. INTANGIBLE ASSETS:

Impairment Considerations (goodwill and intangibles)

The current Covid-19 pandemic has caused a significant deterioration in global economic conditions, including high levels of unemployment and a significant contraction in economic activity. The global economy ~~may be~~is likely in the midst of an economic recession or depression. We evaluate the carrying value of goodwill and intangibles for impairment whenever management believes indicators of impairment might exist. A significant deterioration in macroeconomic conditions is a key indicator of possible impairment. In addition to macroeconomic conditions, management considered the factors in ~~ASC~~the FASB's Accounting Standards Codification Topic 350 when analyzing goodwill and intangibles for possible impairment, including the following:

Conditions in the global SMT and semiconductor capital equipment ~~markets;~~markets (including conditions resulting from the Covid-19 pandemic);
Our revenue and profitability in the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020;
Our backlog at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, which stood at $24.8 million;
Our forecasts for revenue and profitability for the remainder of ~~2020;~~2020 and beyond;
The manner of use and applicability of our intangibles, which is not expected to change; and
Our stock market capitalization, which is significantly greater than our net book value.

After carefully considering the factors outlined above, among others, we determined that it is more likely than not that our goodwill and intangibles were not impaired as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020.

Intangible assets ~~consist~~consisted of the following:

12. NET INCOME PER SHARE:

Net income per basic share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Net income per diluted share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding during the period. Common equivalent shares consist of common shares to be issued upon exercise of stock options, vesting of restricted stock units, vesting of restricted shares and from purchases of shares under our Employee Stock Purchase Plan, as calculated using the treasury stock method. Common equivalent shares are excluded from the calculation of net income per diluted share if their effect is anti-dilutive. The components of net income per basic and diluted share were as follows:

14. INCOME TAXES:

We recorded an income tax ~~expense~~benefit of ~~$149,000~~ $96,000 in the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, compared to income tax expense of $~~134,000~~192,000 in the three months ended June 30, 2019.We recorded income tax expense of $53,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to income tax expense of $326,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2019. The income tax benefit in the three months ended ~~March 31, 2019.~~June 30, 2020 includes $340,000 in excess tax benefits from employee stock option exercises. Our income tax expense in the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020reflectedan effectivetax rate of approximately ~~15%~~2%, compared to an effective tax rate ofapproximately ~~21%~~25% in the~~three~~ six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019.The reduction in ~~our~~ effective tax rate in the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, when compared to the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019, was due to the significant excess tax benefits from employee stock option exercises recognized in the six months ended June 30, 2020, deductions for Foreign Derived Intangible Income ("FDII") and Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income ("GILTI") and foreign tax credits.We ~~previously~~ were unable to take advantage of ~~these additional~~the FDII and GILTI deductions and foreign credits ~~due to our~~in 2019 because we had un-used federal net operating loss ~~carry-forwards which are being forecasted~~carry-forwards. We expect to ~~be used up~~use our remaining federal net operating loss carry forwards in 2020.O~~n a recurring basis, our effective income tax rate is significantly impacted by the GILTI and FDII regulations, U.S. federal R&D tax credits and foreign tax credits.~~

We have significant deferred tax assets as a result of temporary differences between taxable income on our tax returns and U.S. GAAP income, R&D tax credit carry forwards and federal ~~state~~ and ~~foreign~~state net operating loss carry forwards. A deferred tax asset generally represents future tax benefits to be received when temporary differences previously reported in our consolidated financial statements become deductible for income tax purposes, when net operating loss carry forwards could be applied against future taxable income, or when tax credit carry forwards are utilized on our tax returns. We assess the realizability of our deferred tax assets and the need for a valuation allowance based on the guidance provided in current financial accounting standards.

Significant judgment is required in determining the realizability of our deferred tax assets. The assessment of whether valuation allowances are required considers, among other matters, the nature, frequency and severity of any current and cumulative losses, forecasts of future profitability, the duration of statutory carry-forward periods, our experience with loss carry forwards not expiring unused and tax planning alternatives. In analyzing the need for valuation allowances, we first considered our history of cumulative operating results for income tax purposes over the past three yearsin each of the tax jurisdictions in which we operate, our financial performance in recent quarters, statutory carry-forward periods and tax planning alternatives. In addition, we considered both our near-term and long-term financial outlook. After considering all available evidence (both positive and negative), we concluded that recognition of valuation allowances for substantially all of our U.S. and Singapore based deferred tax assets were not required.

The Inland Revenue Authority of Singapore has initiated a routine compliance review of our 2018 income tax return. We presently anticipate that the outcome of this audit will not have a significant impact on our financial position or results of operations.

15. OPERATING LEASES:

Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets, current operating lease liabilities, and long-term operating lease liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets. ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. AsBecause our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate to determine the present value of lease payments. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. We have lease agreements with lease and non-lease components (e.g., common-area or other maintenance costs) which are generally accounted for separately and expensed monthly.

In February 2020, we finalized an extension to our lease for our existing 19,805 square foot mixed office and warehouse facility in Singapore, which serves as a sales, development and final assembly and integration facility for our inspection and metrology system products. The lease runs from the expiration date of our old lease in July 2020 through July 24, 2023. The new lease does not contain any incentives or renewal options. Rent and facility operating costs under the new lease are expected to remain unchanged ~~when compared to~~from the old lease ~~expiring~~that expired in July 2020.

At ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, the future maturities of lease liabilities are as follows:


Twelve months ending March 31,	(In thousands)
Twelve months ending June 30,			(In thousands)
2021	$	952	$	968
2022	961		985

At ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, the weighted average remaining term for our operating leases is ~~5.58~~5.33 years, and the weighted average discount rate applied to our operating leases was ~~5.18%~~5.17%.

Operating lease liabilities were increased by $~~886,000~~920,000 in the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 for ROU assets related to the extended lease for our Singapore ~~facility.~~facility and a new small leased facility in Taiwan. Incentives from the landlord recorded as leasehold improvements in the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019 were $691,000.

16. SHARE REPURCHASES:

In July 2019, our Board of Directors authorized a $3.0 million share repurchase program. ~~Our common stock may be acquired from time to time in open market transactions, block purchases and other transactions complying with the Securities and Exchange Commission's Rule 10b-18.~~ There were no0 share repurchases under this program in the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020. The share repurchase program ~~will terminate~~terminated on June 30, 2020.

17. CONTINGENCIES:

We are periodically a defendant in lawsuits, claims and disputes in the ordinary course of business. While the outcome of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty, management presently believes the disposition of these matters will not have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In the normal course of business to facilitate sales of our products and services, we at times indemnify other parties, including customers, with respect to certain matters. In these instances, we have agreed to hold the other parties harmless against losses arising out of intellectual property infringement or other types of claims. These agreements may limit the time within which an indemnification claim can be made, and almost always limits the amount of the claim. It is not possible to determine the maximum potential amount under these indemnification agreements due to the limited history of prior indemnification claims and the unique facts and circumstances involved in each particular agreement. Historically, payments made, if any, under these agreements have not had a material impact on our operating results, financial position or cash flows. However, there can be no assurance that intellectual property infringement and other claims against us or parties we have indemnified will have the same impact in the future.

ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS:

The following management’s discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of operations of CyberOptics Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries ("we", "us" and "our") contains a number of estimates and predictions that are forward looking statements rather than statements based on historical fact. Among other matters, we discuss (i) a ~~possible~~ world-wide recession or depression resulting from the economic consequences of the Covid-19 pandemic; (ii) the negative effect on our revenue and operating results of the economic crisis resulting from the Covid-19 ~~crises~~pandemic on our customers and suppliers, the market for our products and the global supply chain; (iii) the availability of parts to meet customer orders; (iv) the level of anticipated revenues, gross margins, and expenses; (v) the timing of orders and shipments of our existing products, particularly our 3D Multi-Reflection Suppression™ (MRS™)-enabled SQ3000™ Multi-Function system for automated optical inspection ("AOI") and MX systems for memory module inspection; (vi) the level of orders from our original equipment manufacturer ("OEM") customers; (vii) the timing of initial revenue and projected improvements in gross margins from sales of new products that have been recently introduced, that we have under development or that we anticipate introducing in the future; (viii) the market acceptance of our SQ3000 Multi-Function inspection and measurement system and products for semiconductor advanced packaging inspection and metrology (ix) our assessment of trends in the surface mount technology ("SMT") and semiconductor capital equipment ~~markets, and the impact of the current economic crisis resulting from the Covid-19 pandemic on the markets for our products;~~markets; and (x) changes in the level of tariffs and other trade policies of the United States. Although we have made these statements based on our experience and expectations regarding future events, there may be events or factors that we have not anticipated. Therefore, the accuracy of our forward-looking statements and estimates are subject to a number of risks, including those risks identified in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

General

We are a leading global developer and manufacturer of high precision 3D sensors and system products for inspection and metrology. We also develop and manufacture our WaferSense® products, which is a family of wireless, wafer-shaped sensors that provide measurements of critical factors in the semiconductor fabrication process. We intend to leverage our sensor technologies in the ~~surface mount technology ("SMT")~~SMT and semiconductor industries to deliver profitable growth. A key element of our strategy is the continued development and sale of high precision 3D sensors and system products based on our proprietary Multi-Reflection Suppression ("MRS") technology. We believe that our MRS technology is a breakthrough 3D optical technology for high-end inspection and metrology with the potential to significantly expand our markets. Another key element in our strategy is the continued development and introduction of new sensor applications for our WaferSense® family of products.

Our operating results in 2019 were affected by the cyclical, industry-wide slowdown in demand for SMT and semiconductor capital equipment as well as uncertainty ~~surrounding~~relating to the global trade environment. We believe that the three months ended September 30, 2019 marked the trough of the downturn in the SMT and semiconductor capital equipment markets, and that industry conditions have started to strengthen. Over the longer-term (i.e., the next several years), we expect a growing number of opportunities in the markets for SMT and semiconductor inspection and metrology. We believe that our 3D MRS-enabled sensor and system products and our WaferSense® family products have the potential to expand our presence in the markets for SMT and semiconductor capital equipment.

Manufacturing yield challenges as electronics and semiconductors become more complex are driving the need for more precise inspection and metrology. ~~In our view,~~We believe 3D inspection and metrology represent high-growth segments in both the SMT and semiconductor capital equipment markets. We believe our 3D MRS technology platform is well suited for many applications in these markets, particularly with respect to complex circuit boards and semiconductor wafer level and advanced packaging inspection and metrology applications. We are taking advantage of current market trends by deploying our 3D MRS sensor technology in the following products:

Our SQ3000™ Multi-Function inspection and measurement machines (the SQ3000 and SQ3000™ 3D CMM) for AOI, Solder Paste Inspection ("SPI") and coordinate measurement ("CMM") applications, which are designed to expand our presence in markets requiring high precision inspection and metrology. In these markets, identifying defects has become highly challenging and critical due to smaller semiconductor and electronics packaging and increasing component density on circuit boards. In our view, the 3D MRS sensor technology used in our products is uniquely suited for many of these applications because of its ability to offer microscopic image quality and superior measurement performance at production line speeds.


·	Our next generation MX3000™ AOI system for 3D inspection of memory modules following the singulation step of the manufacturing process. We recognized our first revenue from the sale of the MX3000 product in the first quarter of 2020.

Our new MRS-enabled WX3000™ metrology and inspection system for wafer-level and advanced packing applications, which incorporates our next generation ultra-high resolution three micron pixel 3D NanoResolution MRS sensor. The WX3000 performs 100% 3D ~~NanoResolution MRS sensor, which is capable of measuring feature sizes down to 25 microns accurately~~ and 2D inspection and metrology simultaneously at high speed and delivers through-put of more than 25 wafers per hour. We believe the WX3000 performs two to three times faster than alternate technologies at data processing speeds ~~and~~in excess of 75 million 3D data points per second. The WX3000 is suitable for many semiconductor wafer level and advanced packaging inspection and metrology ~~applications. We are targeting one micron, three-sigma accuracy, at speeds that would inspect more than 25 300-millimeter wafers in an hour.~~applications for features down to 25-micron. We anticipate that sales of 3D MRS-enabled sensors and systems for semiconductor wafer level and advanced packaging inspection and metrology applications will represent compelling long-term growth opportunities. ~~We have adapted the software used in our~~ ~~SQ3000™ Multi-Function systems~~ ~~to work with wafer handling equipment to facilitate sales of our 3D NanoResolution MRS sensor to OEMs and system integrators.~~

Revenue from our MRS based products, including 3D AOI systems and high precision 3D MRS sensors, increased by ~~$2.9~~$4.6 million or ~~66%~~45% to ~~$7.2~~$14.9 million in the ~~first quarter of~~six months ended June 30, 2020, from ~~$4.3~~$10.3 million in the ~~first quarter of~~six months ended June 30, 2019. We ~~believe~~anticipate we will continue to increase sales of products based on our MRS technology in the SMT and semiconductor capital equipment markets. In particular, we believe inspection and metrology ~~products~~ for micro LED, semiconductor wafer level and advanced packaging applications represent significant long-term growth opportunities. We anticipate increasing sales of MRS-based products by reaching new OEM customers and system integrators, and by expanding direct sales of inspection and metrology system products to end-user customers.

We have continued to invest in our WaferSense® family of products, because fabricators of semiconductors and other customers view these products as valuable tools for improving yields and productivity. We have recently introduced several new WaferSense® products to further enhance our revenue growth prospects, including the In-Line Particle Sensor™ (IPS™), which detects particles in gas and vacuum lines in semiconductor process equipment, and is particularly relevant for EUV lithography tools. Additional WaferSense® applications are currently under development. Over the longer-term, strong future sales growth is anticipated for our WaferSense® family of products.

Prior to the end of the second quarter of 2020, we received a $2.5 million order for SQ3000 Multi-Function systems for Micro LED applications. This order is scheduled to be recognized as revenue in the third quarter of 2020. Additional micro LED-related orders are anticipated during the second half of 2020. Our order backlog was $24.8 million at June 30, 2020, unchanged from March 31, 2020, ~~an increase~~and up significantly from ~~$17.7~~$13.0 million at ~~December 31, 2019, and $11.6 million at March 31,~~June 30, 2019. We are forecasting sales of ~~$15.5~~$19.5 to ~~$17.5~~$21.5 million for the ~~second~~third quarter of 2020. Our forecast for the third quarter of 2020 includes $4.0 million of sales from our existing backlog of MX600 memory module inspection systems. We believe that demand in the SMT and semiconductor capital equipment markets will remain solid in 2020. However, an increase in the severity of the current Covid-19 outbreak, or a resulting prolonged economic recession or depression, could cause a slow-down in demand for SMT and semiconductor capital equipment. Over the long-term, anticipated sales growth of our 3D MRS-enabled products and WaferSense sensors should increase our revenues and net income in the future.

Impact from Covid-19

In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus ("Covid-19") was first identified, and in March 2020, the World Health Organization categorized Covid-19 as a pandemic. The Covid-19 pandemic is affecting our customers, suppliers, service providers and employees, and the ultimate impacts of Covid-19 on our business, results of operations, liquidity and prospects are not fully known at this time. However, the Covid-19 outbreak has had a relatively minimal impact on our business to date. Our revenues increased by ~~10%~~8% to ~~$16.4 in the first quarter of 2020, from $15.0~~$32.4 million in the first six months of 2020, from $30.0 million in the first six months of 2019. We are forecasting revenues of $19.5 to $21.5 million for the third quarter of 2020, a significant increase from $12.4 million in the third quarter of 2019. ~~As noted above, we ended the first quarter of 2020 with a record quarterly backlog, and are still forecasting a solid year-over-year revenue growth in the second quarter of 2020.~~ However, ~~this~~our forecast could change if the Covid-19 pandemic ~~worsens.~~worsens, or if unforeseen events related to the pandemic occur. The most significant impacts ~~currently~~ on our business from the Covid-19 pandemic include the following:

·Our key factories are located in Minnesota and Singapore. Both of these locations are subject to government mandated shelter-in-place orders. Because our operations have been deemed essential, we have been able to keep our factories up and running while the shelter-in-place mandates are in effect. We have implemented split-shifts for our factory operations to minimize the number of employees in our facilities at any given time, however, this has not affected our production capacity. Our non-factory employees are required to work remotely. To date, the shelter-in-place mandates have had a minimal impact on employee productivity, mainly some disruption to ongoing research and development ("R&D") activities, but that could change if the pandemic worsens and is more than temporary.

·Sales of some products, mainly our SQ3000 Multi-Function inspection and measurement systems and MX memory module inspection products, require customer acceptance due to performance or other criteria that is considered more than a formality. Many of our customer’s factories have remained open during the Covid-19 pandemic because they are deemed to be essential under most government shelter-in-place mandates. However, this could change if the pandemic worsens and global travel restrictions could hinder our ability to obtain customer acceptances in a timely manner, and therefore impact the timing of revenue recognition.

Our key factories are located in Minnesota and Singapore. Both of these locations have been subject to government mandated shelter-in-place orders. Because our operations have been deemed essential, we were able to keep our factories up and running while the shelter-in-place mandates were in effect. If the pandemic worsens, it is possible that our operations may not be deemed essential under future government mandated shelter-in-place orders, and we may be required to shut-down factory operations. We have periodically implemented split-shifts for our factory operations to minimize the number of employees in our facilities at any given time, however, this has not affected our production capacity. Most of the time, our non-factory employees are working remotely. To date, the shelter-in-place mandates and remote work arrangements have had a minimal impact on operations, but that could change if the pandemic worsens and is more than temporary.

·We have experienced some supply disruptions due to the Covid-19 pandemic, mainly from suppliers not deemed essential by shelter-in-place mandates in certain countries. Key supply chain disruptions have been mostly resolved, but that could change significantly if the pandemic worsens and is more than temporary. To date, our on-hand inventories have been sufficient to enable us to work through any supply disruptions with minimal impact on our sales or ability to service customers. We presently do not expect that supply chain disruptions will have a significant impact on our revenue in the second quarter of 2020.

·	Sales of some products, mainly our SQ3000 Multi-Function inspection and measurement systems and MX memory module inspection products, require customer acceptance due to performance or other criteria that is considered more than a formality. Many of our customer’s factories have remained open during the Covid-19 pandemic because they are deemed to be essential under government shelter-in-place mandates. Approximately $1.5 million of customer acceptances for SQ3000 Multi-Function inspection systems were pushed out to the third quarter of 2020 because of travel restrictions and the inability to gain access to customers' factories due to quarantine measures. None of the affected orders were cancelled, and all are expected to be recorded as revenue in the third quarter of 2020. Continuing or new global travel restrictions and quarantine measures could hinder our ability to obtain customer acceptances for some of our products in a timely manner, and therefore impact the timing of revenue recognition.

·	Total operating expenses in the second quarter of 2020 benefitted by approximately $276,000 from a jobs support program implemented by the government of Singapore. In addition, travel, trade show and other costs were reduced in the second quarter of 2020 due to the Covid-19 pandemic. We anticipate that operating expenses in the third quarter of 2020 will increase, and be comparable to the level in the first quarter of 2020. The anticipated increase is due to the phase-out of the Singapore jobs support program, and our expectation that travel, trade shows and other costs will return to more normal levels in the third quarter of 2020.

·	We have experienced some supply disruptions due to the Covid-19 pandemic, mainly from suppliers not deemed essential by shelter-in-place mandates in certain countries. Key supply chain disruptions have been resolved to date. However, supply chain disruptions could increase significantly if the pandemic worsens and continues for an extended period of time. To date, our on-hand inventories have been sufficient to enable us to mitigate any supply disruptions with minimal impact on our sales or ability to service customers. We presently do not expect that supply chain disruptions will have a significant impact on our revenue in the third quarter of 2020.

We currently do not anticipate any significant credit losses or asset impairments resulting from the Covid-19 pandemic. As of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, our available balances of cash and marketable securities totaled ~~$28.8~~$29.1 million. We believe that we have the resources required to attain our growth objectives and to meet any unforeseen difficulties resulting from the Covid-19 pandemic. However, wWee will continue to closely monitor the Covid-19 pandemic and its impact on our business in the coming months.

CARES Act

Singapore Jobs Support Program

As stated above, the Singapore Government implemented a jobs support program in 2020 that is intended to support businesses and encourage retention of employees during the period of economic uncertainty caused by the Covid-19 pandemic. Under the jobs support program, the Singapore Government will co-fund a portion of the gross monthly wages paid to local employees. The program is presently scheduled to end in August 2020. We anticipate that the Singapore jobs support program will reduce operating expenses in the third quarter of 2020 by approximately $50,000.

Revenues

Our revenues increased by 106% to $~~16.4~~16.0 million in the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, from $15.0 million in the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019. Our revenues increased by 8% to $32.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2020, from $30.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2019. The following table sets forth revenues by product line for the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 and 2019:

Revenues from sales of high precision 3D and 2D sensors increased by ~~$373,000~~$2.7 million or 10137% to ~~$4.1~~$4.7 million in the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, from ~~$3.7~~$2.0 million in the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019. Revenues from sales of high precision 3D and 2D sensors increased by $3.1 million or 54% to $8.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2020, from $5.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2019. The increases in both periods were primarily due to higher sales of 3D MRS-enabled sensors. Sales of high precision 3D MRS-enabled sensors increased by ~~$1.3~~$1.9 million or ~~76%~~170% to ~~$3.1~~$3.0 million in the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 from ~~$1.7~~$1.1 million in the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019. Sales of high precision 3D MRS-enabled sensors increased by $3.2 million or 113% to $6.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2020 from $2.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2019. The increase was due to improving conditions in the global semiconductor capital equipment market. Sales of older 2D legacy sensors, which declined on a year-over-year basis in the three months ended March 31, 2020, are expected to rebound and post modest year-over-year growth in the second quarter of 2020. Sales of high precision 3D and 2D sensors are dependent on the success of our OEM customers selling products that incorporate our sensors. We believe sales of our new 3D MRS enabled sensors, including our next generation ultra-high resolution three micron pixel 3D NanoResolution MRS sensor,will represent an increasing percentage of our total high precision 3D and 2D sensor sales in the future. ~~Quarterly~~Sales of high precision 3D and 2D sensors, including 3D-MRS enabled sensors, are prone to significant quarterly fluctuations due to variations in market demand and customer inventory levels. Revenues from sales of high precision 3D and 2D sensors ~~including 3D MRS enabled sensors,~~ are ~~prone~~expected to ~~significant fluctuations due to variations~~decline modestly on a sequential basis in ~~market demand.~~the third quarter of 2020.

Revenues from sales of inspection and metrology systems decreased by $1.0 million or 6% to $16.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2020, from $17.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2019. The revenue ~~increase was primarily~~decreases were mainly due to ~~higher~~lower sales of legacy products and 2D MX600 memory module inspection systems. Sales of SQ3000™ Multi-Function ~~inspection and measurement~~ systems ~~which~~ increased ~~by $848,000 or 34%~~modestly to ~~$3.3~~$4.7 million in the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, from ~~$2.5~~$4.6 million in the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019. ~~The~~Sales of SQ3000™ Multi-Function systems increased by $873,000 or 12% to $8.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2020, from $7.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2019. Sales of SQ3000™ Multi-Function systems in the three months ended June 30, 2020 were negatively impacted by delays in obtaining $1.5 million of customers acceptances due to travel restrictions and the inability to gain access to customer's factories because of the Covid-19 pandemic.

We believe the increase in sales of SQ3000™ Multi-Function systems in the first half of 2020 was due to the competitive advantages offered by ourSQ3000™ Multi-Function system products, and ~~because~~resulted from many companies ~~are~~ transitioning from 2D AOI to 3D AOI to meet the increasingly demanding product inspection and metrology requirements in the SMT and semiconductor markets. The market transition away from 2D AOI systems is expected to result in an industry-wide ~~30%~~20% compound annual rate of growth in global sales of 3D AOI systems through ~~2024.~~ 2025. In addition, we believe the demonstrated advantages of the SQ3000™ Multi-Function system has allowed us to attain first-mover status in the high growth micro-LED inspection and metrology market. Given these market dynamics and because of the competitive advantages inherent in our 3D MRS sensor technology, we anticipate sales of SQ3000™ Multi-Function systems will represent an increasing percentage of our total inspection and metrology system sales in the future. Revenues from sales of 2Dinspection and ~~3D memory module inspection~~metrology systems ~~were down slightly~~are expected to increase significantly in the ~~three months ended March 31,~~third quarter of 2020, when compared to the three months ended March 31, 2019. In the three months ended March 31, 2020, we recognized revenue from the first order for our next generation 3D MRS-enabled MX3000 memory module inspection system. ~~This order was made to~~both sequentially and on a new memory customer. As a result, two of the world’s three largest memory manufacturers now use either our 2D MX600 or 3D MX3000 memory module inspection systems. We believe the potential market opportunity for the MX3000 system is significant. Revenues from sales of legacy inspection system products were up approximately $1.0 million in the three months ended March 31, 2020, when compared to the same period of last year.

Cost of revenues increased by ~~$1.2 million~~$227,000 or ~~15%~~3% to ~~$9.1~~$8.7 million in the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, from ~~$8.0~~$8.5 million in the three months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2019. Cost of revenues increased by $1.4 or 9% to $17.8million in the six months ended June 30, 2020, from $16.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2019. The increase in cost of revenues ~~was~~in both periods were mainly due to revenue increases and a ~~10% increase~~change in ~~revenues~~product mix.

In addition, the gross margin percentage for our next generation 3D MRS-enabled MX3000 memory module inspection system is lower than many of our other products due the significant material handling and automation required. Continued pricing pressures also contributed to the decline in total gross margin as a percentage of revenues.

Our total gross margin as a percentage of revenues in the ~~second~~third quarter of 2020 is expected to be ~~consistent with~~at or slightly below the ~~first quarter of 2020.~~ level in this year's second quarter.

Our markets are highly price competitive, particularly in the electronics assembly and SMT markets. As a result, we have experienced continual pressure on our gross margins. We compensate for the pressure to reduce the price of our products by introducing new products with more features and improved performance and through manufacturing cost reduction programs. Sales of many products that we have recently introduced or are about to introduce, including our current and future MRS-enabled SQ3000™ Multi-Function inspection and measurement systems, next generation 3D MRS sensors and semiconductor sensors (consisting primarily of our WaferSense® line of ~~products,~~products) have, or are expected to have, more favorable gross margins than many of our existing products. Our next generation 3D MRS-enabled sensor and system products, including wafer level and advanced packaging inspection and metrology products, are being designed for more complex and demanding inspection and metrology applications in the SMT and semiconductor ~~markets, including wafer level and advanced packaging inspection and metrology.~~markets. Sales prices and gross profit margins for these applications tend to be higher than margins for products sold in the broader SMT market. However, the gross margin percentage for our next generation 3D MRS-enabled MX3000 AOI system for inspection of memory modules will be lower than our current total gross margin percentage due to the significant material handling and automation required for this product.

Significant judgment is required in determining the realizability of our deferred tax assets. The assessment of whether valuation allowances are required considers, among other matters, the nature, frequency and severity of any current and cumulative losses, forecasts of future profitability, the duration of statutory carry-forward periods, our experience with loss carry forwards not expiring unused and tax planning alternatives. In analyzing the need for valuation allowances, we first considered our history of cumulative operating results for income tax purposes over the pastthree years~~three years~~ in each of the tax jurisdictions in which we operate, our financial performance in recent quarters, statutory carry-forward periods and tax planning alternatives. In addition, we considered both our near-term and long-term financial outlook. After considering all available evidence (both positive and negative), we concluded that recognition of valuation allowances for substantially all of our U.S. and Singapore based deferred tax assets were not required.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our cash and cash equivalents increased by ~~$233,000~~$773,000 in the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020. Cash provided by operating activities ~~was $2.5 million. Investing activities used $2.3~~of $3.2 million and proceeds of ~~cash, with~~$6.2 million from maturities of marketable securities were partially offset by purchases of marketable securities totaling ~~$5.3~~ $8.0 million and purchases of fixed assets and capitalized patent costs totaling ~~$146,000,~~$518,000. In addition, we used $420,000 of cash as tax payments for ~~being partially~~shares withheld related to stock option exercises which were mostly offset by the proceeds ~~of $3.1 million~~ from ~~maturities of marketable securities.~~the stock option exercises totaling $256,000. Our cash and cash equivalents fluctuate in part because of sales and maturities of marketable securities and investment of cash balances in marketable securities, and from other sources of cash. Accordingly, we believe the combined balances of cash and marketable securities provide a more reliable indication of our available liquidity than cash balances alone. Combined balances of cash and marketable securities increased by ~~$2.5~~$2.8 million to ~~$28.8~~$29.1 million as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, from $26.3 million as of December 31, 2019.

Operating activities provided ~~$2.5~~$3.2 million of cash in the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020. The amount of cash provided by operations was favorably impacted by net income of ~~$844,000.~~$2.5 million. Net income was affected by non-cash expenses totaling ~~$751,000~~$1.8 million for depreciation and amortization, non-cash operating lease expense, recovery for doubtful accounts, deferred taxes, non-cash gains from foreign currency transactions, share-based compensation costs and an unrealized loss on our available-for-sale equity security. Changes in operating assets and liabilities providing cash included a decrease in accounts receivable of ~~$1.8~~$1.4 million, ~~and~~ an increase in accounts payable of ~~$1.3 million.~~$2.7 million and an increase in accrued expenses of $780,000. Changes in operating assets and liabilities using cash included an increase in inventories of ~~$2.1~~$5.0 million, ~~payments for operating lease liabilities~~an increase in prepaid expenses and other current assets of ~~$200,000~~$782,000 and minimal changes in other operating assets and liabilities totaling ~~$46,000.~~$76,000. Accounts receivable decreased due to faster ~~collection of accounts receivable~~collections and a ~~small~~ decrease in sales in the ~~first~~second quarter of 2020 when compared to the fourth quarter of 2019. We ended the ~~first~~second quarter of 2020 with a ~~record quarterly backlog.~~large backlog of orders. Inventories and accounts payable at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 increased due to planned purchases of raw materials to meet customer ~~demand, with more raw~~demand. The increase in accrued expenses was mainly due to bonus accruals resulting from our improved financial performance. The increase in prepaid expenses and other current assets was due to advance payments to a key materials ~~being acquired in~~supplier for the ~~first quarter of 2020 compared to the fourth quarter of 2019.~~MX600 systems.

Investing activities used $2.3 million of cash in the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020. Changes in the level of investment in marketable securities, resulting from purchases and maturities of those securities, used ~~$2.2~~$1.8 million of cash in the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020. We used ~~$146,000~~$518,000 of cash in the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 for the purchase of fixed assets and capitalized patent costs.

Financing activities used $164,000 of cash in the six months ended June 30, 2020. Tax payments for shares withheld related to stock option exercises were mostly offset by the proceeds from the exercise of stock ~~options provided $85,000 of cash in the three months ended March 31, 2020.~~options.

In July 2019, our Board of Directors authorized a $3.0 million share repurchase program ~~through~~which expired on June 30, 2020. No shares were repurchased under this program in the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020.

In February 2020, we finalized an extension to our lease for our existing 19,805 square foot mixed office and warehouse facility in Singapore, which serves as a sales, development and final assembly and integration facility for our inspection and metrology system products. The new lease runs from the expiration date of our old lease in July 2020 through July 24, 2023. Rent and facility operating costs under the new lease are expected to remain unchanged ~~when compared to~~from the old lease ~~expiring~~that expired in July 2020.

At ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, we did not have any relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities. These entities are established by some companies for the purpose of establishing off-balance sheet arrangements or for other contractually narrow or limited purposes.

We believe that on-hand cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities, coupled with anticipated future cash flow from operations, will be adequate to fund our cash flow needs for the foreseeable future.

ITEM 1A – RISK FACTORS

In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the risk factors discussed in Part I “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2019,~~2019. The risks identified in these risk factors which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. There are no material changes from these risk factors, other than the addition of the following risk factor:

The Covid-19 pandemic has significantly and negatively impacted worldwide economic conditions ~~likely~~ resulting in a recession or depression, and could have a material adverse effect on our operations and business in the future. The Covid-19 pandemic is likely to affect our business, especially if government authorities continue to impose or re-impose mandatory closures, shelter-in-place mandates and social distancing protocols, and seek voluntary facility closures or impose other restrictions. ~~These~~Recently, most domestic and foreign governments have taken actions to re-open their economies. However, as a result of increased cases of Covid-19 infections and deaths, certain domestic and foreign governments have taken steps to reverse some of these actions. Actions to impede spread of Covid-19 could materially adversely affect our ability to adequately staff and maintain our operations and negatively impact long-term research and development projects. Global travel restrictions could continue to hinder our ability to obtain timely customer acceptance for some product sales, which would negatively impact our revenue and operating results. Our global supply chain has been and may continue to be disrupted, which could negatively impact our sales, ability to provide products to our customers and ability to service our customers. In addition, the economic disruptions caused by the Covid-19 outbreak could prevent customers from paying us for our products and result in significant credit losses. A prolonged global recession or depression resulting from the Covid-19 pandemic most likely would have a significant negative impact on our revenue and operating results, and could lead to asset impairment charges. As we cannot predict the duration or scope of the Covid-19 pandemic, the anticipated negative financial impact to our operating results cannot be reasonably estimated, but could be material and last for an extended period of time.

ITEM 2 – UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES, USE OF PROCEEDS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES
