NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(in thousands, except per share amounts)

NOTE 1—DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS:

The Company designs, develops, and sells digital video processing systems that enable telephony-based service providers to deliver broadcast quality digital video signals over their networks. The Company also offers video processing systems that enable private enterprise and government entities to transport video signals over satellite, fiber, radio, or copper networks for surveillance, distance learning, and TV production applications. TheAdditionally, the Company also designs, develops and markets broadband transport and service management products that enable the provisioning of high speed Internet access and other broadband data services over existing copper networks within hotels and private campus facilities.

 

Historically, the Company derived most of its sales from its broadband transport and service management products. In November 2002, the Company acquired VideoTele.com, orreferred to in this report as VTC, from Tektronix, Inc. to extend its product offerings to include digital video processing systems. As a result,On June 1, 2005, the Company acquired Copper Mountain Networks, Inc., referred to in this report as Copper Mountain, for its additional product and engineering resources to further address the Company’s expanding video market opportunities. The Company does not expect significant future revenue increased from $9,371 in 2002 to $24,992 in 2004.the sale of Copper Mountain’s historical product line. Video-based products now represent a majority of the Company’s sales.

 

The Company has incurred substantial losses and negative cash flows from operations since inception. For the quartersix months ended March 31,June 30, 2005, the Company incurred a net loss of $3,320$7,835 and negative cash flows from operating activities of $2,417,$7,632, and has an accumulated deficit of $298,832$303,348 at March 31,June 30, 2005. Management believes that its cash and cash equivalents and availability under the credit facility as of March 31,June 30, 2005, combined with the cash proceeds from the July 2005 common stock sale described in Note 10, are sufficient to fund its operating activities and capital expenditure needs for at least the next twelve months. However, in the event that the Company does not meet its revenue and earnings expectations, the Company may require additional cash to fund operations. Failure to generate positive cash flow in the future could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s ability to achieve its intended business objectives.

 

NOTE 2—SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

Basis of presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2004 and March 31,June 30, 2005 and for the three and six months ended March 31,June 30, 2004 and 2005 are unaudited. The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annualin accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial statementsinformation and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments and purchase accounting adjustments in relation to the acquisition of Copper Mountain on June 1, 2005, necessary to state fairly the Company’s financial position as of December 31, 2004 and March 31,June 30, 2005, its results of operations for the three and six months ended March 31,June 30, 2004 and 2005 and its cash flows for the threesix months ended March 31,June 30, 2004 and 2005. These condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes are unaudited and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K,10-K/A, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 3,May 2, 2005. The balance sheet as of December 31, 2004 was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles. The results for the three and six months ended March 31,June 30, 2005 are not necessarily indicative of the expected results for any other interim period or the year ending December 31, 2005.

 

Revenue recognition

The Company generates revenue primarily from the sale of hardware products, including third-party products, through professional services, and through the sale of its software products. The Company sells products through direct sales channels and through distributors. Generally, product revenue is generated from the sale of video processing systems and components and the sale of broadband transport and service management products. Turnkey solution revenue is principally generated by the sale of complete end-to-end video processing systems that are designed, developed and produced according to a buyer’s specifications.

 

Product revenues

Product revenue is generated primarily from the sale of complete end-to-end video processing systems generally referred to as turnkey solutions. Turnkey solutions are multi-element arrangements, which consist of hardware products, software products, professional services and post contractpost-contract support. Sales of turnkey solutions are classified as product revenue in the statement of operations.

Product revenue is also generated from the sale of video processing component products, and the sale of broadband transport and service management products.products and the sale of certain legacy products acquired with the Copper Mountain merger. The Company sells these products through its own direct sales channels and also through distributors.

 

6



The Company’s revenue recognition policies for turnkey solutions are in accordance with SOP 97-2,Software Revenue Recognition, as amended, which is the authoritative guidance for recognizing revenue on software transactions and transactions in which software is more than incidental to the arrangement. SOP 97-2 requires that revenue recognized from software arrangements be allocated to each element of the arrangement based on the relative fair values of the elements, such as hardware, software products, maintenance services, installation, training or other elements. Under SOP 97-2, the determination of fair value is based on objective evidence that is specific to the vendor. If such evidence of fair value for any undelivered element of the arrangement does not exist, all revenue from the arrangement is deferred until such time that evidence of fair value does exist or until all elements of the arrangement are delivered, subject to certain limited exceptions set forth in SOP 97-2, as amended. SOP 97-2 was amended in February 1998 by SOP 98-4,Deferral of the Effective Date of a Provision of SOP 97-2,and was amended again in December 1998 by SOP 98-9,Modification of SOP 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, with Respect to Certain Transactions. Those amendments deferred and then clarified, respectively, the specification of what was considered vendor specific objective evidence of fair value for the various elements in a multiple element arrangement.

 

In the case of software arrangements which require significant production, modification or customization of software, which encompasses all of the Company’s turnkey arrangements, SOP 97-2 refers to the guidance in SOP 81-1,Accounting for Performance of Construction-Type and Certain Production-Type Contracts. The Company recognizes revenue for all turnkey arrangements in accordance with SOP 97-2 and SOP 81-1. Excluding the PCSpost contract support (or PCS) element, for which the Company has established vendor specific objective evidence of fair value (as defined by SOP 97-2), revenue from turnkey solutions is generally recognized using the percentage-of-completion method, as stipulated by SOP 81-1. The percentage-of-completion method reflects the portion of the anticipated contract revenue that has been earned that is equal to the ratio of labor effort expended to date to the anticipated final labor effort, based on current estimates of total labor effort necessary to complete the project. Revenue from the PCS element of the arrangement is deferred at the point of sale and recognized over the term of the PCS period. Generally, the terms of the turnkey solution sales provide for billing of approximately 90% of the contract value of the arrangement prior to the time of delivery to the customer site, with an additional approximately 9% of the contract value billed upon substantial completion of the project and the balance upon customer acceptance. In connection with these contracts, we may perform the work prior to when the revenue is billable pursuant to the contract. The termination clauses in most of our contracts provide for the payment for the fair value of products delivered and services performed in the event of an early termination. In connection with certain of our contracts, we have recorded unbilled receivables consisting of costs and estimated profit in excess of billings as of the balance sheet date. Many of the contracts which give rise to unbilled receivables at a given balance sheet date are subject to billings in the subsequent accounting period. Management reviews unbilled receivables and related contract provisions to ensure we are justified in recognizing revenue prior to billing the customer and that we have objective evidence which allows us to recognize such revenue. The contractual arrangements relative to turnkey solutions include customer acceptance provisions. However, such provisions are generally considered to be incidental to the arrangement in its entirety because customers are fully obligated with respect to approximately 99% of the contract value irrespective of whether acceptance occurs or not.

 

For direct sales of video processing systems component products not included as part of turnkey solutions and the direct sale of broadband transport and service management products, the Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable, and collection is reasonably assured.

 

SignificantManagement must make significant management judgments and estimates must be made in connection with the measurement of revenue in a given period. The Company follows specific and detailed guidelines for determining the timing of revenue recognition. At the time of the transaction, the Company assesses a number of factors, including specific contract and purchase order terms, completion and timing of delivery to the common-carrier, past transaction history with the customer, the creditworthiness of the customer, evidence of sell-through to the end user, and current payment terms. Based on the results of the assessment, the Company may recognize revenue when the products are shipped or defer recognition of revenue until evidence of sell-through occurs and cash is received. In order to recognize revenue, the Company must also make a judgment regarding collectibility.collectibility of the arrangement fee. Management’s judgment of collectibility is applied on a customer-by-customer basis pursuant to the Company’s credit review policy. The Company sells to customers for whom there iswith which the Company has a history of successful collection and to new customers for which no similar history may exist. New customers are subject to a credit review process, which evaluates the customers’ financial position and ability to pay. New customers are typically assigned a credit limit based on a review of their financial position. Such credit limits are increased only after a successful collection history with the customer has been established. If it is determined from the outset of an arrangement that collectibility is not probable based upon the Company’s credit review process, no credit is extended and revenue is recognized on a cash-collected basis.basis, after shipment has occurred or the revenue has been earned under the percentage-of-completion method.

 

The Company also maintains accruals and allowances for all cooperative marketing and other programs, as necessary. Estimated sales returns and warranty costs are based on historical experience and are recorded at the time revenue is recognized, as necessary. The Company’s products generally carry a one year warranty from the date of purchase. To date, warranty costs have been insignificant to the overall financial statements taken as a whole.

 

Should changes in conditions cause the Company to determine that the criteria for revenue recognition are not met for certain future transactions, revenue recognition for any reporting period could be adversely affected.

Unbilled Receivables

Unbilled receivables (costs and estimated profit in excess of billings) may be recorded in connection with certain turnkey solution contracts. Unbilled receivables are not billable at the balance sheet date but are recoverable over the remaining life of the contract through billings made in accordance with contractual agreements. Management reviews unbilled receivables and related contract provisions to ensure the Company is justified in recognizing revenue prior to billing the customer and that there is objective evidence which allows the Company to recognize such revenue.

Inventories

 

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is computed using standard cost which approximates actual cost on a first-in, first-out basis. The Company records provisions to write down its inventory and related firm, non-cancelablenon-cancellable and unconditional purchase commitments for estimated obsolescence or unmarketable inventory equal to the difference between the cost of the inventory and the estimated market value based upon assumptions about the future demand and market conditions. If actual future demand or market conditions are less favorable than those estimated by the Company, additional inventory provisions may be required.

Allowance for doubtful accounts

 

The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make payments. These estimated allowances are periodically reviewed and take into account customers’ payment history and information regarding customers’ creditworthiness that is known to the Company. If the financial condition of any of the Company’s customers were to deteriorate, resulting in such customer’stheir inability to make payments, the Company would need to make an additional allowance would be required.allowance.

 

Accounting for long-lived assets

 

The Company periodically assesses the impairment of long-lived assets. An impairment review is performed whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable.

 

Factors considered important which could trigger an impairment review include, but are not limited to, significant underperformance relative to expected historical or projected future operating results, significant changes in the manner of use of the acquired assets or the strategy for the overall business, significant negative industry or economic trends, a significant decline in the stock price for a sustained period and the Company’s market capitalization relative to net book value.

 

When management determines that the carrying value may not be recoverable based upon the existence of one or more of the above indicators of impairment, any impairment measured is based on a projected discounted cash flow method using a discount rate commensurate with the risk inherent in the Company’s current business model.

 

No impairment was recorded inDuring the threesix months ended March 31,June 30, 2004, or 2005.  the Company determined that certain of the technology acquired as part of the purchase of the ViaGate Technologies, Inc. assets in September 2001 had become impaired. As a result, the Company incurred a loss of $202 to write-off the technology.

Future events could cause the Company to conclude that impairment indicators exist. Any resulting impairment loss could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.

 

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price of an acquired business over the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Management tests for impairment of goodwill on an annual basis and at any other time if events occur or circumstances change that would indicate that it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit has been reduced below its carrying amount.

Factors considered important which could trigger an impairment review include, but are not limited to, significant underperformance relative to expected historical or projected future operating results, significant changes in the manner of use of the acquired assets or the strategy for the overall business, significant negative industry or economic trends, a significant decline in the stock price for a sustained period and the Company’s market capitalization relative to net book value.

The impairment test for goodwill is a two-step process. Step one consists of a comparison of the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount, including the goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. Measurement of the fair value of a reporting unit is based on one or more fair value measures including present value techniques of estimated future cash flows and estimated amounts at which the unit as a whole could be bought or sold in a current transaction between willing parties. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds the fair value, step two requires the fair value of the reporting unit to be allocated to the underlying assets and

liabilities of that reporting unit, resulting in an implied fair value of goodwill. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of that goodwill, an impairment loss equal to the excess is recorded in net earnings (loss).

Accounting for stock based compensation

The Company accounts for stock-based employee compensation arrangements in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, (“APB No. 25”), “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” referred to as APB No. 25 and Financial Accounting Standard Board Interpretation No. 44, (“FIN 44”), “Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation—an Interpretation of APB 25,” referred to as FIN 44 and compliesin compliance with the disclosure provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 148, (“SFAS No. 148”), “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, Transition and Disclosure.Disclosure, Referred to as SFAS No. 148. Under APB No. 25, compensation expense is based on the difference, if any, on the date of the grant, between the fair market value of the Company’s stock and the exercise price. The Company accounts for stock issued to non-employees in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 148 and the Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) Issue No. 96-18, “Accounting for Equity Instruments that are Issued to other than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling Goods or Services.”

 

The Company amortizes stock-based compensation using the straight-line method over the remaining vesting periods of the related options, which is generally four years. Pro forma information regarding net loss and earningsnet loss per share is presented and has been determined as if the Company had accounted for employee stock options under the fair value method of SFAS No. 123, as amended by SFAS No. 148.

 

The following table illustrates the effect on net loss and earningsnet loss per share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123, as amended by SFAS No. 148, to stock-based employee compensation:

The fair value of options and shares issued pursuant to the option plans and at the grant date were estimated using the Black-Scholes model. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options that have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. Option-pricing models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility. The Company uses projected volatility rates, which are based upon historical volatility rates trended into future years. Because employee stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in management’s opinion, the

8



existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of options.

 

The effects of applying pro forma disclosures of net loss and net loss per share are not likely to be representative of the pro forma effects on net loss/income (loss) and net loss/earnings (loss) per share in the future years, as the number of future shares to be issued under these plans is not known and the assumptions used to determine the fair value can vary significantly.

 

Recent accounting pronouncements

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123(R)123R (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment”, which amends FASB Statement No. 123 and will be effective for public companies first fiscal year beginning after June 15, 2005. Thus, the Company will adopt SFAS(R)SFASR on January 1, 2006. The new standard will require the Company to expense employee stock options and other share-based payments. The FASB believes the use of a binomial lattice model for option valuation is capable of more fully reflecting certain characteristics of employee share options compared to the Black-Scholes options pricing model. The new standard may be adopted in one of three ways - the modified prospective transition method, a variation of the modified prospective transition method or the modified retrospective transition method. The Company is currently evaluating the method of adoption and the effect that the adoption of SFAS 123(R)123R will have on its financial position and results of operations.

 

On March 29, 2005, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin 107, or SAB 107, which expresses the views of the SEC regarding the interaction between SFAS No. 123R and certain SEC rules and regulations and provides the SEC’s views regarding the valuation of share-based payment arrangements for public companies. In particular, SAB 107 provides guidance related to share-based

payment transactions with non-employees, the transition from nonpublic to public entity status, valuation methods (including assumptions such as expected volatility and expected term), the accounting for certain redeemable financial instrument issues under share-based payment arrangements, the classification of compensation expense, non-GAAP financial measures, first-time adoption of SFAS No. 123R in an interim period, capitalization of compensation costs related to share-based payment arrangements, the accounting for income tax effects of share-based payment arrangements upon adoption of SFAS No. 123R, the modification of employee share options prior to adoption of SFAS No. 123R, and disclosures in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations subsequent to adoption of SFAS No. 123R. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that SAB 107 will have on its results of operations and financial position when it is adopted in fiscal 2006.

In June 2005, the FASB issued FAS No. 154, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections — a replacement of APB No. 20 and FAS No. 3”, which replaces APB Opinion No. 20, “Accounting Changes”, and FASB Statement No. 3, “Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements”, and changes the requirements for the accounting for and reporting of a change in accounting principle. This Statement requires retrospective application to prior periods’ financial statements of changes in accounting principle, unless it is impracticable to determine either the period-specific effects or the cumulative effect of the change. When it is impracticable to determine the period-specific effects of an accounting change, this Statement requires that the new accounting principle be applied to the balances of assets and liabilities as of the beginning of the earliest period for which retrospective application is practicable and that a corresponding adjustment be made to the opening balance of retained earnings for that period rather than being reported in an income statement. When it is impracticable to determine the cumulative effect of applying a change in accounting principle to all prior periods, this Statement requires that the new accounting principle be applied as if it were adopted prospectively from the earliest date practicable. This Statement also requires that a change in depreciation, amortization, or depletion method for long-lived, nonfinancial assets be accounted for as a change in accounting estimate effected by a change in accounting principle. This Statement shall be effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. Its adoption is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

NOTE 5—ACQUISITION

 

9On January 7, 2005, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with CoSine Communications, Inc., referred to in this report as CoSine. The Company received formal notice from CoSine on May 17, 2005, terminating the merger agreement. As a result, the Company incurred a one time charge of $1,209 to write off the related transaction costs.



 

On June 1, 2005, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding common stock of Copper Mountain for approximately $11,729. The purchase price consisted of 2,470 shares of the Company’s common stock valued in aggregate at $9,817, warrants to purchase the Company’s common stock valued at $58, acquisition related expenses consisting of legal, insurance and other professional fees of $1,503 and employee severance costs of $351. The value of the Company’s common stock was determined based on the average market price over the two day period before and after the acquisition was announced on February 11, 2005. The results of operations of Copper Mountain have been included in the consolidated statement of operations from June 1, 2005. The Company acquired Copper Mountain for its additional product and engineering resources, which are being refocused to address the Company’s expanding video market opportunities. The Company believes that the acquisition of Copper Mountain will help to accelerate the Company’s plan to address the growing number of opportunities in the market for video processing systems. During the three months ended June 30, 2005, the Company recognized revenue of $1,528 from the sale of legacy Copper Mountain’s products in backlog. The Company will honor Copper Mountain’s existing customer support agreements but does not expect significant future revenue from the sale of Copper Mountain’s historical product lines.

The Company determined the fair value of the acquired intangibles with the assistance of an independent third party appraiser using established valuation techniques. The purchase price of $11,729 exceeded the fair value of the net assets acquired of $10,057, thereby resulting in goodwill of $1,672. The allocation of the purchase price was as follows:

Current assets

  $4,285

Property and equipment

   706

Completed technology and patents

   6,221

Goodwill

   1,672

Liabilities

   1,155

  $11,729
   

Completed technology and patents are being amortized over a weighted average life of five years. The goodwill of $1,672 will not be deductible for tax purposes.

The following unaudited pro forma consolidated information gives effect to the acquisition of Copper Mountain as if it had occurred on January 1, 2004 and 2005 by consolidating the results of operations of Copper Mountain with the results of operations of the Company for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2005.

Contingencies

Whalen v. Tut Systems, Inc. et al

On October 30, 2001, the Company and certain of its current and former officers and directors were named as defendants inWhalen v. Tut Systems, Inc. et al.,Case No. 01-CV-9563, a purported securities class action lawsuit filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. An amended complaint was filed on December 5, 2001. A consolidated amended complaint was filed on April 19, 2002. The consolidated amended complaint asserts that the prospectuses from the Company’s January 29, 1999 initial public offering and its March 23, 2000 secondary offering failed to disclose certain alleged actions by the underwriters for the offerings. The complaint alleges claims against the Company and certain of its current and former officers and

11



directors under Section 11 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and under Section 10(b) and Rule 10b-5 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and alleges claims against certain of its current and former officers and directors under Sections 15 and 20(a) of the Securities Act. The complaint also names as defendants the underwriters for the Company’s initial public offering and secondary offering. Similar suits were filed in the Southern District of New York challenging over 300 other initial public

offerings and secondary offerings conducted in 1999 and 2000. Therefore, for pretrial purposes, theWhalen action is being coordinated with the approximately 300 other suits before United States District Court Judge Shira Scheindlin of the Southern District of New York under the matterIn Re Initial Public Offering Securities Litigation.The individual defendants in theWhalen action, namely, Nelson Caldwell, Salvatore D ‘Auria and Matthew Taylor, were dismissed without prejudice by an October 9, 2002 Order of the Court, approving the parties’ October 1, 2002 Stipulation of Dismissal. On February 19, 2003, the Court issued an Opinion and Order denying the Company’s motion to dismiss.

 

AIn June 2004, a stipulation of settlement for the claims against the issuer-defendants, including the Company, was submitted to the Court on June 14, 2004 in theIn Re Initial Public Offering Securities Litigation. On February 15, 2005, the Court granted preliminary approval of the settlement, conditioned upon the parties’ modification of a proposed bar order with respect to potential contribution claims. The settlement is subject to a number of conditions, most of which are outside of the Company’s control, including approval by the Court. The underwriters named as defendants in theIn Re Initial Public Offering Securities Litigation (collectively, the “underwriter-defendants”), including the underwriters named in theWhalen suit, are not parties to the stipulation of settlement.

 

The stipulation of settlement provides that, in exchange for a release of claims against the settling issuer-defendants, the insurers of all of the settling issuer-defendants will provide a surety undertaking to guarantee plaintiffs a $1 billion recovery from the non-settling defendants, including the underwriter-defendants. The ultimate amount, if any, that may be paid on behalf of the Company will therefore depend on the final terms of the settlement, including the number of issuer-defendants that ultimately participate in the final settlement, and the amounts, if any, recovered by the plaintiffs from the underwriter-defendants and other non-settling defendants.

 

In the event that all or substantially all of the issuer-defendants participate in the final settlement, the amount that may be paid to the plaintiffs on behalf of the Company could range from zero to approximately $3.5$7.0 million, depending on plaintiffs’ recovery from the underwriter-defendants and from other non-settling parties.parties and the amount of insurance available under the Company’s applicable insurance policies. If the plaintiffs recover at least $1 billion from the underwriter-defendants, no settlement payments would be made on behalf of the Company under the proposed terms of the settlement. If the plaintiffs recover less than $1 billion, the Company believes that its insurance will likely cover some or all of its share of any payments towards satisfying plaintiffs’ $1 billion recovery deficit. Management estimates that its range of loss relative to this matter is zero to $3.5$7.0 million. Presently there is no more likely point estimate of loss within this range. As a consequence of the uncertainties described above regarding the amount the Company will ultimately be required to pay, if any, as of March 31,June 30, 2005, the Company has not accrued a liability for this matter.

 

The Company is subject to other legal proceedings, claims and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company’s management does not expect that the ultimate costs to resolve these matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

In re Copper Mountain Networks, Inc. Initial Public Offering Securities Litigation

Copper Mountain, which the Company acquired on June 1, 2005, was in December 2001, along with certain of its officers and directors, named as defendants in a class action shareholder complaint filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, now captionedIn re Copper Mountain Networks, Inc. Initial Public Offering Securities Litigation, Case No. 01-CV-10943 alleging violations of securities law under Section 11 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 10(b) and Rule 10b-5 of the Exchange Act. As a result of the acquisition, the Company has inherited the responsibility and obligations of Copper Mountain to defend the claims in that case and the Company is exposed to any liability that may come out of the claims. TheCopper Mountain action described in this paragraph like the Whalen action described above has been coordinated for pretrial purposes under the matterIn Re Initial Public Offering Securities Litigation. The individual defendants in theCopper Mountain action were also dismissed without prejudice pursuant to the October 9, 2002 Order of the Court approving the parties’ October 1, 2002 Stipulation of Dismissal. On February 19, 2003, the Court issued an Opinion and Order denying Copper Mountain’s motion to dismiss. Copper Mountain entered into the same stipulation of settlement as the Company did in theWhalenaction described above. TheCopper Mountain stipulation of settlement is subject to the same terms, conditions and contingencies as the stipulation of settlement the Company entered into with respect to theWhalenaction described above. At this time, the Company cannot estimate the amount that the Company may be required to pay the plaintiffs under a final settlement with respect to theCopper Mountain action described in this paragraph.

Overview

Our Business

We design, develop, and sell digital video processing systems that enable telephony-based service providers to deliver broadcast quality digital video signals across their networks. We refer to these systems as digital TV headends or video content processing systems. We also offer digital video processing systems that enable private enterprise and government entities to transport video signals across satellite, fiber, radio, or copper facilities for surveillance, distance learning, and TV production applications.

 

We also offer broadband transport and service management products that enable the provisioning of high speed Internet access and other broadband data services over existing copper networks within hotels and private campus facilities.

 

Our History

Prior to November 2002, most of our sales were derived from our broadband transport and service management products. With our November 2002 acquisition of Tektronix’s subsidiary VTC, we extended our product offerings to add video processing systems for digital TV headends and for the transmission of video signals over private and government networks. The acquisition of VTC resulted in significant changes in our business, including: (1) changesbusiness. On June 1, 2005, we acquired Copper Mountain Networks, Inc. referred to in this report as Copper Mountain, to further expand our organizational structure and employee staffing; (2) relocation ofvideo content processing systems product line in order to address our

14



administrative offices, executive offices (as of January 2004) and a significant portion of our operations from Pleasanton, California to Lake Oswego, Oregon, the prior headquarters of VTC; (3) growing video market opportunities. This acquisition resulted in an expansion of our sales and marketing efforts to include VTC products; and (4) a reprioritization of ouradditional research and development efforts to focus on products associated with VTCfacility in San Diego, California, and 37 additional employees. We do not expect significant future revenue from the sale of Copper Mountain’s historical product lines.line. With our acquisition of VTC and Copper Mountain, sales of video processing systems now represent a majority of our total revenues and will provide most of our growth opportunities in the foreseeable future.

We earn revenue primarily by selling video content processing systems both directly and through resellers to telecommunications service providers. We also earn revenue by selling video transmission systems to TV broadcasters, government agencies and educational institutions, and by selling broadband transport and service management products directly and through distributors to the hospitality industry and to owners of private multi-tenant campus facilities.

 

Although international sales are still a material portion of our total sales, since our acquisition of VTC, international sales have represented a smaller percentage of our overall business relative to prior years. During the years ended December 31, 2002, 2003 and 2004, international sales represented 43.0%, 18.4% and 23.3% of our total sales.sales, respectively. During the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2004 and 2005, international sales represented 11.2%26.7% and 18.0%15.6% of our total sales, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2005, international sales represented 19.0% and 16.6% of our total sales, respectively.

 

Material Trends and Uncertainties

We pay close attention to and monitor various trends and uncertainties about our business. There is a growing demand by independent operating telephone companies to offer video services to their customer base. According to a report released by InStat/MDR in April 2003, the number of telco video subscribers worldwide will increase from 572,000 at the end of 2003 to over 19.0 million by the end of 2007. While this growing market presents opportunities to serve a larger customer base, we are also seeing the emergence of intense competition as more companies compete to sell digital TV headend products. We expect this market space will continue to become more competitive in the future. Our immediate competitors in the digital TV headend markets are primarily small private companies that are focused on a more narrow product line than ours and thereby may be able to devote substantially more targeted resources to developing, marketing and selling new products than we are able to. In addition, these companies may become targets for acquisition by larger companies, in which case we would face competitors with substantially greater name recognition, and technical, financial and marketing resources than we have. This increased competitive pressure may adversely affect the amount and timing of our revenue in future periods, thereby making it more difficult for us to accurately forecast our future revenue, and may also adversely affect our product and service margins.

 

The growth in the market for delivery of switched digital video has begun to accelerate as larger tier one telcos and cable multi system operators, or MSOs, are evaluating this new technology. As we begin to target larger telco customers, we expect to compete with larger public companies, including Harmonic, Motorola and Tandberg Television.

 

The emergence of new technologies to serve the digital TV headend market means that we must continue to invest in these new technologies to maintain our market position. Digital subscriber line, or DSL, technologies use sophisticated signal blending techniques to transmit data through copper wires. The limitations on the amount of data that can be transmitted in a fixed amount of time (such limitations are referred to as bandwidth) and the distance data may be transmitted using copper wire constrain both the number of video channels that may be delivered simultaneously and the number of customers that are reachable from a telco central office over a DSL network. Emerging advancements in video compression technology are now enabling high quality video streams to be transported at lower data transfer rates than has been previously available. These emerging compression advancements also introduce the possibility of delivering high-definition television over bandwidth constrained asymmetric DSL, or ADSL, lines for the first time. ADSL is a new technology that allows more data to be transmitted over existing copper telephone lines compared with standard DSL. Additionally, DSL advancements are emerging that expand the available bandwidth from the telco to the subscriber thereby supporting higher DSL data transfer rates over longer distances. As our products continue to incorporate these new technological advancements, we expect the demand for our products will increase because our products will enable more telcos to reach more of their customers with a greater number of video channels. However, because of the increasing competition in the markets in which we compete, regardless of our revenue and product and service margins in future periods, we will have to continue to devote significant resources to research and development in future periods in order to continue to offer our customers competitive products that incorporate these emerging technologies. As a consequence, we expect that our research and development expenses willhave increased during the first half of 2005 and we expect our research and development expenses to increase for the remainder of 2005 compared to our spending in 2004.2005.

 

As we continue to capitalize on the growing number of telcos deploying video services in the United States and abroad, we will also have to continue to aggressively market our new and existing products and expand our marketing and sales efforts domestically and internationally. Nevertheless, our operations have been and will continue to be subject to pressure from weakness in the overall technology sector as well as the digital media industry, the continued lengthening of our sales cycle and delays of customer purchasing decisions, which may continue to reduce our expected revenue. We believe that the lengthening of the purchase decision by prospective customers has occurred and may continue because of several factors that are affecting the overall digital TV headend market. Such factors

15



include, but are not limited to, the delays in the introduction of advanced compression technology set top boxes, the transition to more efficient data transmission technologies and the emergence of video signal encryption requirements. Nevertheless, given the opportunities offered by the growing number of telcos deploying video services and despite the length of the sales cycle, we expect our sales and marketing expenses to increase for the remainder of 2005 compared to our spending in 2004.

Definitions for Discussion of Results of Operations

OurThe following is an explanation of how we employ certain concepts in our discussion of our results of operations focuses on the following items from our income statement: Revenue consists of sales of our video processing systems, which includes both digital TV headend and video transmission systems. Revenue also includes sales of our broadband transport and service management products. Since our acquisition of VTC, a large part of our revenue has been associated with the sale of digital TV headends. Furthermore, each individual headend sale has represented a significant portion of our revenue. If we were to sell even one less system than our forecasted number of headend sales, our revenue would be materially impacted. Cost of goods sold, or COGS, consists of costs related to raw materials, contract manufacturing, personnel, overhead, test and quality assurance for products, and the cost of licensed technology included in our products. Raw materials, contract manufacturing and licensed technology are the principal elements of COGS and vary directly with product sales. Sales and marketing expense consists primarily of selling and marketing personnel costs, including sales commissions, travel, trade shows, promotions and outside services. Research and development expense consists primarily of personnel and facilities costs, contract consultants, outside testing services, and equipment and supplies associated with enhancing existing products and developing new products. General and administrative expense consists primarily of personnel costs for administrative officers and support personnel, professional services and insurance expenses. Amortization of intangible assets consists primarily of expenses associated with the amortization of technology and patents related to prior years’ acquisitions.operations:

Three and Six Months Ended March 31,June 30, 2004 and 2005

Total Revenues. Our total revenues increased to $9.7 million and $16.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005, respectively, when compared with total revenues of $5.1 million and $11.3 million for the same periods in 2004. For the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2005, our total revenuesproduct revenue from video processing systems increased by 14.2%122.1% to $7.1$6.9 million from $6.2$3.1 million for the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2004. This $0.9Included in our total revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2005 was revenue related to legacy product sales from the recently completed Copper Mountain merger totaling $1.5 million. We do not expect similar revenue contribution from these legacy products in future quarters. For the six months ended June 30, 2005, our product revenue from video processing systems increased by 73.5%, to $12.8 million increasefrom $7.4 million for the same period in product2004. The increases in video processing systems revenue was due primarily to the introduction of our upgraded Astria video processing systems that incorporate recent Motion Pictures Experts Group (MPEG) advanced video compression technologies or MPEG-4. Our upgraded Astria products enable our customers to address a larger percentage of their geographic market and deliver advanced video services. Sales of video processing system products increased from $4.2 million in the first quarter of 2004 to $5.9 million in the first quarter of 2005. Sales of broadband transport and service management products decreased from $1.9$2.0 million in the firstsecond quarter of 2004 to $1.1$1.2 million in the firstsecond quarter of 2005 and decreased from $3.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004 to $2.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005. The decrease in broadband transport and service management products revenue was primarily the result of customers choosing competing products that transmit data via wireless data transmission technologies instead of our products

which transmit data over telephone wires. In future quarters, we expect sales of broadband transport and service management products to remainincrease with the same asintroduction of our first quarter sales until the expected introductions of next generation service management products for the multiple dwelling unit and enterprise market duringlater in the second half of 2005.this year. Included in sales of broadband transport and service management products were sales to one customer, Enterasys Networks Ltd. which accounted for 11% of our total revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2004.

 

Cost of Goods Sold. For the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2005, our cost of goods sold decreasedincreased by $1.0$2.4 million to $4.2$5.8 million from $5.1$3.4 million for the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2004. IncludedThe increase in the cost of goods sold for the three months

16



ended March 31, 2004 was due to a $1.0$1.6 million increase in our reserves for obsolete inventorymaterial costs relating to higher sales volume, an increase in freight and a loweroverhead costs of cost or market adjustment for certain inventory components.  Our gross profit$0.3 million and the amortization of $0.5 million in backlog acquired in the Copper Mountain merger. Cost of goods sold increased by $1.9$1.4 million to $2.9$10.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2005, from $8.6 million for the threesix months ended March 31, 2005 fromJune 30, 2004. The increase in cost of goods sold was due to a $1.9 million increase in material costs and the amortization of $0.5 million in backlog acquired in the Copper Mountain merger. Included in cost of sales during the six months ended June 30, 2004 was an increase of $1.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2004.  Included in gross profitinventory reserves recorded during the first quarter of 2004 was a charge of $1.0 million due to an increase in our inventory reserves.  The remaining $0.9 increase in gross profit for the first quarter of 2005 was due to an increase of $1.4 million relating to our video content processing products, partially offset by a decrease of $0.5 million attributable to our broadband transport and service management products.2004.

 

Sales and Marketing. For the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2005, our sales and marketing expensesexpense increased by 30.6%$0.8 million or 42.1% to $2.5$2.7 million from $1.9 million for the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2004. The $0.6$0.8 million increase for the first quarter of 2005 when compared with the same period in 2004 was due to $0.5a $0.4 million ofincrease in personnel related costs, $0.3 million increase in promotion and product demonstration expenses, and $0.1 million of equipmentin travel expenditures. For the six months ended June 30, 2005 sales and marketing expense increased to $5.2 million from $3.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004. The $1.4 million increase is due to a $0.9 million increase in personnel related costs, relating to the purchase of additional supplies$0.1 million in contractor and demonstration supplies.outside services, and $0.4 million in promotion expenses.

 

Research and Development. For the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2005, our research and development expense increased by 16.4%72.9% to $2.1$3.2 million from $1.8$1.9 million for the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2004. The $0.3$1.4 million increase in our research and development expense for the firstsecond quarter of 2005 when compared with the same period in 2004 was due to an increase of $0.2$0.6 million in personnel related costs $0.2 millionrelated in purchasing of supplies relatedpart to the acceleration of the development of our Astria Video Services Processor for specific customer trials and demonstrations, partially offset by a decrease ofrecently completed Copper Mountain merger, $0.1 million in depreciation costs. Weoutside service costs, and $0.7 million in purchases of materials. With the additional personnel and research and development facility acquired from the Copper Mountain merger, we expect that our research and development expenses will increase throughoutduring the remainder of 2005.2005 when compared with the first half of the year. Research and development expense increased by $1.7 million to $5.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005 from $3.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004. The $1.7 million increase was due to an increase of $0.8 million in personnel related costs, and $0.9 million in purchases of materials. Our capital expenditures for research and development were $0.3$0.2 million and $0.2 million$19,000 for the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively and $0.4 million and $0.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005 and 2004, respectively. We expect capital expenditures for research and development to increase inremain consistent throughout the remainder of 2005.

 

General and Administrative. For the three months ended March 31,June 30, 2005 our general and administrative expenses increased to by 3.8% to $1.2 million from $1.1 million. The $0.1 million increase in our general and administrative expense increased 78.8% to $2.0 million from $1.1 million for the first quarterthree months ended June 30, 2004. For the six months ended June 30, 2005, general and administrative expense increased to $3.1 million from $2.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004. The increase of 2005 when compared with the same period in 2004$0.9 million was due primarily to a $1.2 million one-time write off of costs relating to CoSine’s termination of the proposed merger and an increase in personnel related costs of $0.1 million partially offset by bad debt expenserecoveries of $0.1$0.4 million.

 

Impairment of Intangible Assets.During the first quarter of 2004, we determined that certain of the technology acquired as part of the purchase of the ViaGate Technology assets had become impaired. As a result, we recorded an impairment charge of $0.2 million to write off the book value of the intangible assets associated with this technology. There was no such impairment for the three months ended March 31, 2005.

 

Amortization of Intangible Assets. Amortization of intangible assets is comprised of intangibles related to the acquisitions of Xstreamis Limited in 2000, and VTC in 2002.2002 and Copper Mountain in the second quarter of 2005. The remaining intangible assets subject to amortization from these acquisitions consist primarily of completed technology and patents. For the three and six months ended March 31,June 30, 2005 and March 31, 2004, amortization of intangible assets remained consistent at $0.4 million. million and $0.8 million respectively.

 

Interest and Other Expense,Income, Net. Interest and other income, net consists primarily of interest income and expense and foreign currency exchange gains and losses. For the three and six months ended March 31,June 30, 2005 and March 31, 2004, our interest and other income remained consistentflat at $50,000 and $0.1 million.million, respectively.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash and cash equivalents totaled $9.5$10.4 million at March 31,June 30, 2005 compared with cash and cash equivalents of $12.4 million at December 31, 2004, reflecting a net reduction in cash and cash equivalents of $2.9$2.1 million.

 

Cash used in operating activities was $2.4$7.6 million for the threesix months ended March 31,June 30, 2005, compared with $1.5$5.2 million for the threesix months ended March 31,June 30, 2004. The increased cash used in operating activities was primarily due to an increase in accounts receivable due toresulting from higher revenue levels in the firstsecond quarter of 2005 and an increase in prepaid expenses due to costs incurred in conjunctionunbilled receivables.

Cash provided by investing activities was $0.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2005, compared with CoSine andcash used of $0.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2004. Net cash acquired from the Copper Mountain merger activitiesacquisition was $1.6 million, consisting of cash acquired of $3.1 million offset by an increase in accounts payablelegal, insurance and accrued liabilities due to an increase in endother professional fees of quarter purchases. 

$1.5 million. Additions to property and equipment were $0.5$1.1 million in the first quarter ofsix months ended June 30, 2005, compared with $0.7$0.8 million in the first quarter of 2004.six months ended June 30, 2004, primarily reflecting an increased investment in research and development assets. In 2005total we expect capital expenditures for 2005 to increase.be comparable to 2004. We expect these capital expenditures to be funded from cash, cash equivalents and availability under the credit facility.

 

Contractual ObligationsCash from financing activities was $5.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2005, compared with $0.3 for the six months ended June 30, 2004. The increase is due to the proceeds from the line of credit which was repaid subsequent to June 30, 2005.

On September 23, 2004, we entered into a revolving asset based credit facility (“credit facility”), with Silicon Valley Bank (“the Bank”). This facility has a term of two years and expires on September 23, 2006. Borrowings under the credit facility are formula based and limited to the lesser of $7.0 million or an amount based on a percentage of eligible accounts receivable and eligible inventories. The interest rate on outstanding borrowings is equal to the bank’s prime rate, 5.75%6.0% as of March 31,June 30, 2005, plus 0.5%. The rate may increase by 1.0% if we do not meet certain financial covenants. The credit facility is collateralized by all of our assets, and contains various financial covenants. BasedWe had $5.0 million in outstanding borrowings under this credit facility at June 30, 2005. The maximum amount available based on the maximum percentages of eligible accounts receivable and eligible inventory levels, borrowings available under this facility were $4.7 million aswas $6.6 million. Subsequent to the end of March 31, 2005. We had nothe quarter, we repaid all the outstanding borrowings under this credit facility at March 31, 2005.facility.

 

As part of our acquisition of VTC from Tektronix in November 2002, we issued a note payable to Tektronix for $3.2 million, with repayment in sixty months, or by November 2007. The interest rate on this note is 8% and is compounded annually. Through January 31, 2006, the accrued interest is added to the principal balance of the note. Thereafter, we will pay accrued interest on this note commencing on January 31, 2006 and on each April 30, July 31 and October 31 thereafter until the principal balance is paiddue in full in November 2007.full. Principal and accrued interest on the note payable is $3.9$4.0 million at March 31,June 30, 2005. Accrued interest duringin the first quarter ofsix months ended June 30, 2005 was $0.1$0.2 million.

In order to obtain additional financial resources, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with CoSine Communications, Inc., (“CoSine”) on January 7, 2005.  The proposed merger is a stock-for-stock transaction valued at approximately $24.1 million, at the time it was entered into.  By the terms of the agreement, upon closing, we would issue approximately 6.0 million shares of our common stock to the stockholders of CoSine.  The transaction would result in net cash to Tut Systems of approximately $22.75 million, and the transaction is expected to close as soon as practicable following approval by the stockholders of both companies. We are proposing to acquire CoSine primarily to provide additional financial liquidity.  Upon closing, we plan to honor CoSine’s existing customers’ support agreements, but do not expect to offer its products for sale to new customers.  We will not have any additional employees or facilities as a result of the transaction.

The CoSine merger is conditional upon approval of the merger by the holders of a majority of the shares of CoSine common stock, and approval of the issuance of additional shares of common stock by the holders of a majority of the shares of Tut Systems common stock, as well as other customary closing conditions.  There can be no assurance that the CoSine merger will be approved by the required vote of the respective companys’ stockholders.

On February 11, 2005 we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization with Copper Mountain Networks, Inc. (“Copper Mountain”). The proposed merger will be a stock-for-stock transaction valued at approximately $10 million. Upon closing the Copper Mountain transaction, we will issue approximately 2.5 million shares of our common stock to the stockholders of Copper Mountain. The Copper Mountain transaction is conditioned upon the approval of the merger by the holders of a majority of the shares of Copper Mountain common stock, and other customary closing conditions. We are acquiring Copper Mountain to expand and upgrade our line of video processing products. We will honor Copper Mountain’s existing customer support agreements, but do not expect to offer any of Copper Mountain’s existing products for sale after the completion of the transaction. We will have approximately 41 additional employees and will add a research and development facility in San Diego, California as a result of the transaction.

 

We have incurred substantial losses and negative cash flows from operations since inception. For the threesix months ended March 31,June 30, 2005, we incurred a net loss of $3.3$7.8 million, negative cash flows from operating activities of $2.4$7.6 million, and have an accumulated deficit of $298.8$303.3 million.

In July 2005, we completed the sale of 5,535,000 shares of our common stock at a price of $2.70 per share for gross proceeds of $14.9 million. Net proceeds from the offering were approximately $14.1 million. Under the terms of the sale, we also issued warrants to purchase an additional 2.8 million shares of our common stock. The warrants expire in 2010 and, beginning in 2006, are exercisable at a per share price of $4.25. We also have the right to call the warrants in the event that the trading price of our common stock exceeds $7.44 per share for twenty consecutive trading days. If exercised in full, the warrants would provide us an additional $11.8 million in cash.

 

We believe that the cash and cash equivalents and the availability under the credit facility as of March 31,June 30, 2005 combined with the cash proceeds from the July 2005 common stock sale are sufficient to fund our operating activities and capital expenditure needs for at least the next twelve months. However, in the event that general economic conditions worsen, we may require additional cash to fund our operations. Failure to generate positive cash flow in the future could have a material adverse effect on our ability to achieve our intended business objectives.

 

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any material off balance sheet arrangements.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The

preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses

18



during the reporting periods. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

 

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

 

Revenue recognition. We generate revenue primarily from the sale of hardware products, including third-party products, through professional services, and through the sale of our software products. We sell products through direct sales channels and through distributors. Generally, product revenue is generated from the sale of video processing systems and components and the sale of broadband transport and service management products. Turnkey solution revenue is principally generated by the sale of complete end-to-end video processing systems that are designed, developed and produced according to a buyer’s specifications.

 

Product revenue is generated primarily from the sale of complete end-to-end video processing systems generally referred to as turnkey solutions. Turnkey solutions are multi-element arrangements, which consist of hardware products, software products, professional services and post contract support. Sales of turnkey solutions are classified as product revenue in the statement of operations.

 

Product revenue is also generated from the sale of video processing component products and the sale of broadband transport and service management products.products and the sale of certain legacy products acquired with the Copper Mountain merger. We sell these products through our own direct sales channels and also through distributors.

 

Our revenue recognition policies for turnkey solutions are in accordance with SOP 97-2,Software Revenue Recognition, as amended, which is the authoritative guidance for recognizing revenue on software transactions and transactions in which software is more than incidental to the arrangement. SOP 97-2 requires that revenue recognized from software arrangements be allocated to each element of the arrangement based on the relative fair values of the elements, such as hardware, software products, maintenance services, installation, training or other elements. Under SOP 97-2, the determination of fair value is based on objective evidence that is specific to the vendor. If such evidence of fair value for any undelivered element of the arrangement does not exist, all revenue from the arrangement is deferred until such time that evidence of fair value does exist or until all elements of the arrangement are delivered, subject to certain limited exceptions set forth in SOP 97-2, as amended. SOP 97-2 was amended in February 1998 by SOP 98-4,Deferral of the Effective Date of a Provision of SOP 97-2 and was amended again in December 1998 by SOP 98-9,Modification of SOP 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, with Respect to Certain Transactions. Those amendments deferred and then clarified, respectively, the specification of what was considered vendor specific objective evidence of fair value for the various elements in a multiple element arrangement.

 

In the case of software arrangements that require significant production, modification or customization of software, which encompasses all of our turnkey arrangements, SOP 97-2 refers to the guidance in SOP 81-1,Accounting for Performance of Construction-Type and Certain Production-Type Contracts. We recognize revenue for all turnkey arrangements in accordance with SOP 97-2 and SOP 81-1. Excluding the PCS element of the multi-element arrangement, for which we have established vendor specific objective evidence of fair value (as defined by SOP 97-2), revenue from turnkey solutions is generally recognized using the percentage-of-completion method, as stipulated by SOP 81-1. The percentage-of-completion method reflects the portion of the anticipated contract revenue that has been earned that is equal to the ratio of labor effort expended to date to the anticipated final labor effort, based on current estimates of total labor effort necessary to complete the project. Revenue from the PCS element of the arrangement is deferred at the point of sale and recognized over the term of the PCS period. Generally, the terms of the turnkey solution sales provide for billing of approximately 90% of the contract value prior to the time of delivery to the customer site, with an additional approximately 9% of the contract value billed upon substantial completion of the project and the balance upon customer acceptance. In connection with these contracts, we may perform the work prior to when the revenue is billable pursuant to the contract. The termination clauses in most of our contracts provide for the payment for the fair value of products delivered and services performed in the event of an early termination. In connection with certain of our contracts, we have recorded unbilled receivables consisting of costs and estimated profit in excess of billings as of the balance sheet date. Many of the contracts which give rise to unbilled receivables at a given balance sheet date are subject to billings in the subsequent accounting period. Management reviews unbilled receivables and related contract provisions to ensure we are justified in recognizing revenue prior to billing the customer and that we have objective evidence which allows us to recognize such revenue. The contractual arrangements relative to turnkey solutions include customer acceptance provisions. However, such provisions are generally considered to be incidental to the arrangement in its entirety because customers are fully obligated with respect to approximately 99% of the contract value irrespective of whether acceptance occurs or not.

 

For direct sales of video processing systems component products not included as part of turnkey solutions and the direct sale of broadband transport and service management products, we recognize revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable, and collection is reasonably assured.

Significant

Management must make significant management judgments and estimates must be made in connection with the measurement of revenue in a given period. We follow specific and detailed guidelines for determining the timing of revenue recognition. At the time of the transaction, we assess a number of factors, including specific contract and purchase order terms, completion and timing of delivery to the common-carrier, past transaction history with the customer, the creditworthiness of the customer, evidence of sell-through to the end user, and current payment terms. Based on the results of the assessment, we may recognize revenue when the products are shipped or defer recognition of revenue until evidence of sell-through occurs and cash is received. In order to recognize revenue, we must also make a judgment regarding collectibility. Management’s judgment of collectibility is applied on a customer-by-customer basis pursuant to our credit review policy. We sell to customers with which we have a history of successful collection and to new customers for which such history may not

19



exist. New customers are subject to a credit review process, which evaluates the customers’ financial position and ability to pay. New customers are typically assigned a credit limit based on a review of their financial position. Such credit limits are only increased after a successful collection history with the customer has been established. If it is determined from the outset of an arrangement that collectibility is not probable based upon our credit review process, no credit is extended and revenue is recognized on a cash-collected basis.basis, after shipment has occurred or the revenue has been earned under the percentage-of-completion method.

 

We also maintain accruals and allowances for all cooperative marketing and other programs, as necessary. Estimated sales returns and warranty costs are based on historical experience and are recorded at the time revenue is recognized, as necessary. Our products generally carry a one-year warranty from the date of purchase. To date, warranty costs have been insignificant to the overall financial statements taken as a whole.

 

Unbilled Receivables.Unbilled receivables (costs and estimated profit in excess of billings) may be recorded in connection with certain turnkey solution contracts. Unbilled receivables are not billable at the balance sheet date but are recoverable over the remaining life of the contract through billings made in accordance with contractual agreements. Management reviews unbilled receivables and related contract provisions to ensure we are justified in recognizing revenue prior to billing the customer and that we have objective evidence which allows us to recognize such revenue.

Inventories. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is computed using standard cost, which approximates actual cost on a first-in, first-out basis. We record provisions to write down our inventory and related firm, non-cancelable and unconditional purchase commitments for estimated obsolescence or unmarketable inventory equal to the difference between the cost of the inventory and the estimated market value based upon assumptions about the future demand and market conditions. If actual future demand or market conditions are less favorable than we estimate, additional inventory provisions may be required.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123(R)123R (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment”, which amends FASB Statement No. 123 and will be effective for public companies for first fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. We will adopt SFAS 123(R)123R on January 1, 2006. The new standard will require us to expense employee stock options and other share-based payments. The FASB believes the use of a binomial lattice model for option valuation is capable of more fully reflecting certain characteristics of employee share options compared to the Black-Scholes options pricing model. The new standard may be adopted in one of three ways - ways—the modified prospective transition method, a variation of the modified prospective transition method or the modified retrospective transition method. We are currently evaluating how we will adopt the standard and evaluating the effect that the adoption of SFAS 123(R)123R will have on our financial position and results of operations.

 

20On March 29, 2005, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin 107, or SAB 107, which expresses the views of the SEC regarding the interaction between SFAS No. 123R and certain SEC rules and regulations and provides the SEC’s views regarding the valuation of share-based payment arrangements for public companies. In particular, SAB 107 provides guidance related to share-based payment transactions with non-employees, the transition from nonpublic to public entity status, valuation methods (including assumptions such as expected volatility and expected term), the accounting for certain redeemable financial instrument issues under share-based payment arrangements, the classification of compensation expense, non-GAAP financial measures, first-time adoption of SFAS No. 123R in an interim period, capitalization of compensation costs related to share-based payment arrangements, the accounting for income tax effects of share-based payment arrangements upon adoption of SFAS No. 123R, the modification of employee share options prior to adoption of SFAS No. 123R, and disclosures in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations subsequent to adoption of SFAS No. 123R. We are currently evaluating the impact that SAB 107 will have on our results of operations and financial position when we adopt it in fiscal 2006.



 

In June 2005, the FASB issued FAS No. 154, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections — a replacement of APB No. 20 and FAS No. 3”, which replaces APB Opinion No. 20, “Accounting Changes”, and FASB Statement No. 3, “Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements”, and changes the requirements for the accounting for and reporting of a change in accounting principle. This Statement requires retrospective application to prior periods’ financial statements of changes in accounting principle, unless it is impracticable to determine either the period-specific effects or the cumulative effect of the change. When it is impracticable to determine the period-specific effects of an accounting change, this Statement requires that the new accounting principle be applied to the balances of assets and liabilities as of the beginning of the earliest period for which retrospective application is practicable and that a corresponding adjustment be made to the opening balance of retained earnings for that period rather than being reported in an income statement. When it is impracticable to determine the cumulative effect of applying a change in

accounting principle to all prior periods, this Statement requires that the new accounting principle be applied as if it were adopted prospectively from the earliest date practicable. This Statement also requires that a change in depreciation, amortization, or depletion method for long-lived, nonfinancial assets be accounted for as a change in accounting estimate effected by a change in accounting principle. This Statement shall be effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. Its adoption is not expected to have a significant impact on our financial position or results of operations.

ADDITIONAL RISK FACTORS THAT COULD AFFECT OUR OPERATING RESULTS AND THE MARKET PRICE OF OUR STOCK

 

We have a history of significant losses, and we may never achieve profitability.

We have incurred substantial net losses and experienced negative cash flow for each quarter since our inception. As of March 31,June 30, 2005, we had an accumulated deficit of $298.8$303.3 million. We expect to incur losses in the near future. Moreover, we may never achieve profitability and, even if we do, so, we may not be able to maintain profitability. We may not be able to generate a sufficient level of revenue to offset our current level of expenditures.expenses. Moreover, because our expenditures for sales and marketing, research and development, and general and administrative functions are relatively fixed in the short term, we may be unable to adjust our spending in a timely manner to respond to any unanticipated decline in revenue. If we fail to achieve and maintain profitability within the timeframe expected by securities analysts or investors, then the market price of our common stock will likely decline.

 

Each sale of our digital headend systems represents a significant portion of our revenue for any given quarter. Our failure to meet our quarterly forecast of sales of digital headend systems in any given quarter could have a material adverse impact on our financial results for a given quarter.

Since we acquired VTC in November 2002, a large part of our quarterly revenue is associated with the sale of digital headend systems. Each sale represents a significant portion of our revenue for each quarter. We base our operating forecast on our historical sales. Because of the high cost per unit of our digital headend systems, if we were to sell even one less system than our forecasted number of headend sales per quarter, such a decrease in sales would have a material and adverse impact on our revenue for that quarter, and we may fail to meet investor expectations.quarter.

 

We operate in an intensely competitive marketplace, and many of our competitors have greater resources than we do.

Our primary competitors in the digital TV headend market are small private companies that are focused on a more narrow product line than ours, thereby allowing these competitors to devote substantially more targeted resources to developing and marketing new products than we can. As we target larger telco customers for our video content processing systems, we expect more competition from large public companies like Harmonic, Inc., Tandberg Television ASA, and Motorola, Inc., all of which have substantially greater financial, technical and other resources than we do. These competitors have achieved success in providing headend components for cable multiple system operators and satellite TV providers and, we expect these competitors to market some of their products for use in TV over DSL applications. For example, in the past, Harmonic provided video content processing systems to SaskTel, a large Canadian telephone service provider. Harmonic also recently announced that it will provide video content processing systems to Video Networks Limited, a video-over-DSL provider in the United Kingdom.

 

Our competition in the market for video transmission processing products primarily comes from small private companies such as SkyStream Networks and public companies such as Optibase Inc. and Tandberg Television that, together, offer a wide array of products with special features and functions. Our broadband transport and service management business tends to compete against public, private and foreign network equipment companies.

 

To the extent that any of these current or potential future competitors enter or expand further into our markets, develop superior technology and products or offer superior prices or performance features relative to our products, such competition could result in lost sales and severe downward pressure on our pricing, either of which would adversely affect our revenue and profitability.

 

Commercial acceptance of any technological solution that competes with technology based on communication over copper telephone wire could materially and adversely impact demand for our products, our revenue and growth strategy.

The markets for video content processing, transmission and high-speed data access systems and services are characterized by several competing communication technologies, including fiber optic cables, coaxial cables, satellites and other wireless facilities. Many of our products are based on communication over copper telephone wire. Because there are physical limits to the speed and distance over which data can be transmitted over copper wire, our products may not be a viable solution for customers requiring service at performance levels beyond the current limits of copper telephone wire. Our customer base is concentrated on telephone service providers that have a large investment in copper wire technology. If these customers lose market share to their competitors who use competing technologies that are not as constrained by physical limitations as copper telephone wire, and that are able to provide faster access, greater reliability, increased cost-effectiveness or other advantages, demand for our products will decrease. Moreover, to the extent that our customers choose to install fiber optic cable or other transmission media as part of their infrastructure,

or to the extent that homes and businesses install other transmission media within buildings, demand for our products may decline. The occurrence of any one or more of these events would harm demand for our products, which would thereby adversely affect our revenue and growth strategy.

 

21



If the projected growth in demand for video services from telephone service providers does not materialize or if our customers find alternative methods of delivering video services, future sales of our video content processing systems will suffer.

We manufacture video content processing systems that enable telephone service providers to offer video services to their customers. Our customers, the telephone service providers, face competition from cable companies, satellite service providers and wireless companies. For some users, these competing solutions provide fast access, high reliability and cost-effective solutions for delivering data, including video services. Telephone service providers hope to maintain their market share in their core business of voice telephony as well as increase their revenue per customer by offering their customers more services, including video services and high-speed data services. However, if the telephone service providers find alternative ways of maintaining and growing their market share in their core business that do not require that they offer video services, demand for our products will decrease substantially. Moreover, if technological advancements are developed that allow our customers to provide video services without upgrading their current system infrastructure, or that offer our customers a more cost-effective method of delivering video services, sales of our video content processing systems will suffer. Alternatively, even if the telephone service providers choose our video content processing systems, the service providers may not be successful in marketing video services to their customers, in which case our sales would decrease substantially.

 

Our operating results fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter, and this may cause the price of our stock to decline.

Over the last 12 quarters, our salesrevenue per quarter havehas fluctuated between $9.2$9.7 million and $2.0 million. Over the same periods, our losslosses from operations as a percentage of revenue have fluctuated between approximately 5.2% and 691%691.0% of revenue. We anticipate that our sales and operating margins will continue to fluctuate. We expect this fluctuation to continue for a variety of reasons, including:

the timing of customers’ purchase decisions, acceptance of our new products and possible cancellations;

competitive pressures, including pricing pressures from our partners and competitors;

delays or problems in the introduction of our new products;

announcements of new products, services or technological innovations by us or our competitors; and

management of inventory levels.

Fluctuations in our sales and operating margins will make it more difficult for us to accurately forecast our results of operations and this could negatively impact the market price of our stock.

 

The sales cycle for video content processing systems is long and unpredictable, which requires us to incur high sales and marketing expenses with no assurance that a sale will result.

The sales cycle for our headend systems can be as long as 12-18 months. Additionally, with respect to the sale of our products to U.S. and foreign government organizations, we may experience long sales cycles as a result of government procurement processes. As a result, while we continue to incur costs associated with a particular sale prior to payment from the customer, we may not recognize revenue from efforts to sell particular products for extended periods of time.

As a result, our quarter-to-quarter comparisons of our revenue and operating results may not be meaningful and may not provide an accurate indicator of our future performance. Our operating results in one or more future quarters may fail to meet the expectations of investment research analysts or investors, which could cause an immediate and significant decline in the trading price of our common stock.

 

If we fail to accurately forecast demand for our products, our revenue, profitability and reputation could be harmed.

We rely on contract manufacturers and third-party equipment manufacturers, or OEMs, to manufacture, assemble, test and package our products. We also depend on third-party suppliers for the materials and parts that constitute our products. Our reliance on contract manufacturers, OEMs and third-party suppliers requires us to accurately forecast the demand for our products and coordinate our efforts with those of our contract manufacturers, OEMs and suppliers. We often make significant up-front financial commitments with our contract manufacturers, OEMs and suppliers in order to procure the raw materials and begin manufacturing and assembly of the products. If we fail to accurately forecast demand or coordinate our efforts with our suppliers, OEMs and contract manufacturers, we may face supply, manufacturing or testing capacity constraints. These constraints could result in delays in the delivery of our products, which could lead to the loss of existing or potential customers and could thereby result in lost sales and damage to our reputation, which would adversely affect our revenue and profitability. Further, we outsource the manufacturing of our products based on forecasts of sales. If orders for our products exceed our forecasts, we may have difficulty meeting customers’ orders in a timely manner, which could damage our reputation or result in lost sales. Conversely, if our forecasts exceed the orders we actually receive and we are unable to cancel future purchase and manufacturing commitments in a timely manner, our inventory levels would increase. This could expose us to losses related to slow moving and obsolete inventory, which would have a material adverse effect on our profitability.

22



If we fail to develop and introduce new products in response to the rapid technological changes in the markets in which we compete, we will not remain competitive.

The markets for video content processing, transmission and high-speed data access systems are characterized by rapid technological developments, frequent enhancements to existing products and new product introductions, changes in end-user requirements and evolving industry standards. To remain competitive, we must continually improve the performance, features and reliability of our products. For example, advancementsadvances in compression technology are leading the video content processing industry to begin the transition to next generation compression standards. These advances will allow for further reductions in the bandwidth required to deliver standard definition video channels and introduce the possibility of delivering high-definition television over asymmetric digital subscriber lines, or ADSL, for the first time. ADSL is a new technology that allows more data to be transmitted over copper telephone lines than standard DSL. Further advances in compression technology, or the emergence of new industry standards would require that we further redesign our products to incorporate, and remain compatible with, emerging technologies and industry standards.

 

We cannot assure you that we will be able to respond quickly and effectively to technological change. We may have only limited time to enter certain markets, and we cannot assure you that we will be successful in achieving widespread acceptance of our products before competitors can offer products and services similar or superior to our products. If we fail to introduce new products that address technological changes or if we experience delays in our product introductions, our ability to compete would be adversely affected, thereby harming our revenue, profitability and growth strategy.

 

We depend on international sales for a significant portion of our revenue, which subjects our business to a number of risks. If we are unable to generate significant international sales, our revenue, profitability and share price could be materially and adversely affected.

Sales to customers outside of the United States accounted for approximately 11.2%43.0%, 18.4% and 18.0%23.3% of revenue for the threeyears ended December 31, 2002, 2003 and 2004, respectively and 19.0% and 16.6% for the six months ended March 31,June 30, 2004 and 2005, respectively. Sales and operating activities outside of the United States are subject to 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. Any of these factors may have a material adverse effect on our ability to grow or maintain international revenue.

 

We expect sales to customers outside of the United States to represent a significant and growing portion of our revenue. However, we cannot assure you that foreign markets for our products will develop at the rate or to the extent that we anticipate. If we fail to generate significant international sales, our revenue, profitability and share price could be materially and adversely affected.

 

Fluctuations in interest and currency exchange rates may decrease demand for our products.

Substantially all of our foreign sales are invoiced in U.S. dollars. As a result, fluctuations in currency exchange rates could cause our products to become relatively more expensive for international customers, thereby reducing demand for our products. We anticipate that we will generally continue to invoice foreign sales in U.S. dollars. We do not currently engage in foreign currency hedging transactions. However, as we expand our current international operations, we may allow payment in foreign currencies and, as a result, our exposure to foreign currency transaction losses may increase. To reduce this exposure, we may purchase forward foreign exchange contracts or use other hedging strategies. However, we cannot assure you that any currency hedging strategy would be successful in avoiding exchange-related losses. Any such losses would adversely impact our profitability.

 

If our contract manufacturers, third-party OEMs and third-party suppliers fail to produce quality products or parts in a timely manner, we may not be able to meet our customers’ demands.

We do not manufacture our products. We rely on contract manufacturers and OEMs to manufacture, assemble, package and test substantially all of our products and to purchase most of the raw materials and components used in our products. Additionally, we depend on third-party suppliers to provide quality parts and materials to our contract manufacturers and OEMs, and we obtain some of the key components and sub-assemblies used in our products from a single supplier or a limited group of suppliers. Neither we nor our contract manufacturers or OEMs have any guaranteed supply arrangements with the suppliers. If our suppliers fail to provide a sufficient supply of key components, we could experience difficulties in obtaining alternative sources at reasonable prices, if at all, or in altering product designs to use alternative components. Moreover, if our contract manufacturers or OEMs fail to deliver quality products in a timely manner, such failure would harm our ability to meet our scheduled product deliveries to customers. Delays and reductions in product shipments could increase our production costs, damage customer relationships and harm our revenue and profitability. In addition, if our contract manufacturers and OEMs fail to perform adequate quality control and testing of our products, we would experience increased production costs for product repair and replacement, and our profitability would be harmed. Moreover,

defects in products that are not discovered in the quality assurance process could damage customer relationships and result in product returns or product liability claims, each of which could harm our revenue, profitability and reputation.

 

23



Design defects in our products could harm our reputation, revenue and our revenue, profitability and reputation.profitability.

Any defect or deficiency in our products could reduce the functionality, effectiveness or marketability of our products. These defects or deficiencies could cause customers to cancel or delay their orders for our products, reduce revenue or render our product designs obsolete. In any of these events, we would be required to devote substantial financial and other resources for a significant period of time to develop new product designs. We cannot assure you that we would be successful in addressing any design defects in our products or in developing new product designs in a timely manner, if at all. Any of these events, individually or in the aggregate, could harm our revenue, profitability and reputation.

 

Our business depends on the integrity of our intellectual property rights. If we fail to adequately protect our intellectual property, our revenue, profitability, reputation or growth strategy could be adversely affected.

We attempt to protect our intellectual property and proprietary technology through patents, trademarks and copyrights, by generally entering into confidentiality or license agreements with our employees, consultants, vendors, strategic partners and customers as needed, and by generally limiting access to and distribution of our trade secret technology and proprietary information. However, any of our pending or future patent or trademark applications may not ultimately be issued as patents or trademarks of the scope that we sought, if at all, and any of our patents, trademarks or copyrights may be invalidated, deemed unenforceable, or otherwise challenged. In addition, other parties may circumvent or design around our patents and other intellectual property rights, may misappropriate our proprietary technology, or may otherwise develop similar, duplicate or superior products. Further, the intellectual property laws and our agreements may not adequately protect our intellectual property rights and effective intellectual property protection may be unavailable or limited in certain foreign countries in which we do business or may do business in the future.

 

The telecommunications and data communications industries are characterized by the existence of extensive patent portfolios and frequent intellectual property litigation. From time to time, we have received, and may in the future receive, claims that we are infringing third parties’ intellectual property rights. Any present or future claims, with or without merit, could be time-consuming, result in costly litigation, divert management time and attention and other resources, cause product shipment delays or require us to enter into royalty or licensing agreements. Such royalty or licensing agreements, if required, may not be available on terms acceptable to us. In addition, any such litigation could force us to cease selling or using certain products or services, or to redesign such products or services. Further, we may in the future, initiate claims or litigation against third-parties for infringement of our intellectual property rights or to determine the scope and validity of our intellectual property rights or those of competitors. Such litigation could result in substantial costs and diversion of resources. Any of the foregoing could have an adverse effect upon our revenue, profitability, reputation or growth strategy.

 

If we fail to provide our customers with adequate and timely customer support, our relationships with our customers could be damaged, which would harm our revenue and profitability.

Our ability to achieve our planned sales growth and retain customers will depend in part on the quality of our customer support operations. Our customers generally require significant support and training with respect to our products, particularly in the initial deployment and implementation stage. As our systems and products become more complex, we believe our ability to provide adequate customer support will be increasingly important to our success. We have limited experience with widespread deployment of our products to a diverse customer base, and we cannot assure you that we will have adequate personnel to provide the levels of support that our customers may require during initial product deployment or on an ongoing basis. Our failure to provide sufficient support to our customers could delay or prevent the successful deployment of our products. Failure to provide adequate support could also have an adverse impact on our reputation and relationship with our customers, could thereby prevent us from gaining new customers and could harm our revenue and profitability.

 

Failure to complete our mergers with CoSine and Copper Mountain could cause our stock price to decline and negatively affect our expected cash position.

On January 7, 2005, we announced that we had signed a definitive merger agreement to acquire all of the outstanding shares of common stock of CoSine Communications, Inc. The CoSine transaction is expected to result in net cash to us of approximately $22.75 million. On February 11, 2005 we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization with Copper Mountain Networks, Inc. We are acquiring Copper Mountain to expand and upgrade our line of video processing products and related engineering capabilities. We will have approximately 41 additional employees and will add a research and development facility in San Diego, California as a result of the Copper Mountain transaction.

Our proposed acquisition of CoSine is subject to, approval by the stockholders of both CoSine and Tut Systems, in addition to other customary closing conditions. Certain CoSine stockholders have expressed their intent not to support the transaction.Our proposed acquisition of Copper Mountain is subject to approval by the stockholders of Copper Mountain. Additionally, the price of our common stock has been volatile and has fallen below its price at the time that we entered into the definitive merger agreements

24



with CoSine and Copper Mountain. We cannot be certain that the transactions will be approved by either CoSine’s or Copper Mountain’s stockholders.

If the mergers with CoSine and Copper Mountain are not completed, our stock price may decline due to a number of factors. First, our costs related to the mergers, such as legal, accounting and financial advisor fees, must be paid even if the mergers are not completed. In addition, our stock price may decline to the extent that the current market price of our common stock reflects a market assumption that the mergers will be completed. Moreover, if we do not complete the CoSine merger, we will not obtain the expected increase to our future cash position, and as a result we will need to engage in alternative future transactions to raise additional working capital, at prices and with resulting dilution to our stockholders that may be less favorable than the proposed CoSine acquisition.

Failure to integrate acquired businesses into our operations successfully could adversely affect our business.

As part of our strategy to develop and identify new products and technologies, we have made acquisitions, andsuch as our recent acquisition of Copper Mountain. We are likely to make more.more acquisitions in the future. Our integration of the operations of acquired businesses requires significant efforts, including the coordination of information technologies, research and development, sales and marketing, operations, manufacturing and finance. These efforts result in additional expenses and involve significant amounts of management’s time that cannot then be dedicated to other projects. Our failure to manage successfully and coordinate the growth of the combined company could also have an adverse impact on our business. In addition, there is no guarantee that any of the businesses we acquire will become profitable or remain so. If our acquisitions do not reach our initial expectations, we may record unexpected impairment charges. Factors that will affect the success of our acquisitions include:

absence of adequate internal controls or presence of significant fraud in the financial systems of acquired companies;

any decrease in customer loyalty and product orders caused by dissatisfaction with the combined companies’ product lines and sales and marketing practices, including price increases;

our ability to retain key employees; and

the ability of the combined company to achieve synergies among its constituent companies, such as increasing sales of the combined company’s products, achieving cost savings and effectively combining technologies to develop new products.

 

These factors, among others, will affect whether our recent and proposed acquisitions are successfully integrated into our business. Additionally, any future acquisitions may also result in potentially dilutive issuances of our equity securities, acquisition or divestiture related write-offs and the assumption of debt and contingent liabilities. If we fail to integrate acquired businesses into our operations successfully, we may be unable to achieve our revenue, profitability, operations, strategic goals and our competitive position in the marketplace could suffer.

 

If we fail to manage our expanding operations, our ability to increase our revenues and improve our results of operations could be harmed.

We anticipate that, in the future, we may need to expand certain areas of our business to grow our customer base and exploit market opportunities. In particular, we expect to face numerous challenges in the implementation of our business strategy to focus on selling our products to the larger, more established service providers. To manage our operations, we must, among other things, continue to implement and improve our operational, financial and management information systems, hire and train additional qualified personnel, continue to expand and upgrade core technologies and effectively manage multiple relationships with various customers, suppliers and other third-parties. We cannot assure you that our systems, procedures or controls will be adequate to support our operations or that our management will be able to achieve the rapid execution necessary to exploit fully the market for our products or systems. If we are unable to manage our operations effectively, our revenue, results of operations and share price could be harmed.

 

If material weaknesses in our internal controlscontrol over financial reporting were to develop (such as those that our independent registered public accounting firm identified in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2003)January 2004) and we were unable to remedy such weaknesses in an effective-effective and timely manner, such weaknesses could materially and adversely affect our ability to provide the public with timely and accurate material information about our Company, which could harm our reputation and share price.Tut Systems.

In January 2004, our independent registered public accounting firm identified deficiencies in our internal controls that they considered to be material weaknesses. Based on these weaknesses, our chief executive officer (CEO) and chief financial officer (CFO) determined that, as of December 31, 2003, our disclosure controls and procedures were not sufficienteffective to record, process, summarize and report information required to be reported within the time periods specified by the SEC and accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEOchief executive officer and CFO,chief financial officer, to allow timely discussions regarding required disclosure. These material weaknesses related to our inventory and our accounts payable processes, both of which affect our balance sheet and may also affect our income statement reporting. We believe that we have fully addressed these issues, and, therefore, our Chief Executive Officer’schief executive officer’s and Chief Financial Officer’schief financial officer’s evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31,June 30, 2005 concluded that they were effective. (See Item 9A of our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004 as filed with the SEC for further discussion of these weaknesses as well as for our chief executive officer’s and chief financial officer’s evaluation as of December 31, 2004.) In order for investors and the equity analyst community to make informed investment decisions and recommendations about our securities, it is important that we provide them with accurate and timely information in accordance with the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and the rules promulgated thereunder. Material weaknesses in our internal controlscontrol over financial reporting and our disclosure controls and procedures would hinder the flow of timely and accurate information to investors. If such material weaknesses were to develop and we did not address them in a timely matter, investors might sell our shares and industry analysts might either make incorrect recommendations about our CompanyTut Systems or

25



else end coverage of our companyTut Systems altogether, any of which results could harm our reputation and adversely impact our share price.

 

We are currently engaged in a securities class action lawsuit which, if it were to result in an unfavorable resolution, could adversely affect our reputation, profitability and share price.

 

We are currently engaged as a defendant in a lawsuit (i.e.,Whalen v. Tut Systems, Inc. et al.) that alleges securities law violations against us and certain of our current and former officers and directors under Section 11 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 10(b) and Rule 10b-5 of the Exchange Act. Additionally, our subsidiary Copper Mountain , which we acquired on June 1, 2005, was in December 2001, along with certain of its officers and directors, named as defendants in a class action shareholder complaint filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, now captionedIn re Copper Mountain Networks, Inc. Initial Public Offering Securities ExchangeLitigation, Case No. 01-CV-10943 alleging violations of securities laws under Section 11 of the Securities Act of 1934,1933, as amended.amended, and Section 10(b) and Rule 10b-5 of the Exchange Act. As a result of the acquisition, we have inherited the responsibility and obligations of Copper Mountain to defend the claims in that case and we are exposed to any liability that may come out of the claims. TheWhalen action described and theCopper Mountain action are being coordinated with approximately 300 suits before United States District Judge Shira Scheindlin of the Southern District of New York under the matterIn re Initial Public Offering Securities Litigation. While we have reached a settlement with the plaintiffs in thistheWhalen lawsuit, and prior to the acquisition Copper Mountain reached a settlement isin theCopper Mountain action, the settlements are subject to certain contingencies, including court approval of the terms of settlement.settlements. If the court does not approve this settlement,the settlements, or any other applicable contingencies are not resolved or otherwise addressed, we would be required to resume litigation in this matter. Additionally, Copper Mountain and CoSine are both involved in similar lawsuits (i.e. In re Copper Mountain Networks, Inc. Initial Public Offering Securities Litigation and In re Initial Public Offering Securities Litigation respectively). Further, on January 18, 2005, a complaint entitled Senior v. CoSine Communications, Inc., et al., Case No. CIV444292, was filed in San Mateo County Superior Court against CoSine and its officers and directors, requesting that the acquisition of CoSine by Tut Systems, Inc. be enjoined due to alleged self-dealing and breach of fiduciary duties by CoSine’s officers and directors. We may inherit the risks associated with these lawsuits in addition to our own lawsuit. If we were to resume litigation in the matters of Copper Mountain and CoSine, there is no assurance that we would prevail. If the outcome of such litigation were unfavorable to us, our reputation, profitability and share price could be adversely affected.matters.

If our products do not comply with complex government regulations, our product sales will suffer.

We and our customers are subject to varying degrees of federal, state and local as well as foreign governmental regulation. Our products must comply with various regulations and standards defined by the Federal Communications Commission, or FCC. The FCC has issued regulations that set installation and equipment standards for communications systems. Our products are also required to meet certain safety requirements. For example, Underwriters Laboratories must certify certain of our products in order to meet federal safety requirements relating to electrical appliances to be used inside the home. In addition, certain products must be Network Equipment Building Standard certified before certain of our customers may deploy them. Any delay in or failure to obtain these approvals could harm our business, financial condition or results of operations. Outside of the United States, our products are subject to the regulatory requirements of each country in which our products are manufactured or sold. These requirements are likely to vary widely. If we do not obtain timely domestic or foreign regulatory approvals or certificates, we would not be able to sell our products where these regulations apply, which could prevent us from maintaining or growing our revenue or achieving profitability.

In addition, regulation of our customers may adversely impact our business, operating results and financial condition. For example, FCC regulatory policies affecting the availability of data and Internet services and other terms on which telecommunications companies conduct their business may impede our entry into certain markets. In addition, the increasing demand for communications systems has exerted pressure on regulatory bodies worldwide to adopt new standards, generally following extensive investigation of competing technologies. The delays inherent in this governmental approval process may cause the cancellation, postponement or rescheduling of the installation of communications systems by our customers, which in turn may harm our sale of products to these customers.

 

If we lose key personnel or are unable to hire additional qualified personnel as necessary, we may not be able to manage our business successfully, which could materially and adversely affect our growth strategy, reputation and share price.

We depend on the performance of Salvatore D’Auria, our President, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board, and on other senior management and technical personnel with experience in the video and data communications, telecommunications and high-speed data access industries. The loss of any one of them could harm our ability to execute our business strategy, which could adversely affect our reputation and share price. Additionally, we do not have employment contracts with any of our executive officers. We believe that our future success will depend in large part on our continued ability to identify, hire, retain and motivate highly skilled employees who are in great demand. We cannot assure you that we will be able to do so.

 

We routinely evaluate acquisition candidates and other diversification strategies.

We have completed a number of acquisitions as part of our efforts to expand and diversify our business. For example, we acquired our video content processing and video transmission businesses from Tektronix in November 2002 when we purchased its subsidiary, VTC.

In order to obtain additional financial resources, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with CoSine Communications, Inc., (“CoSine”) on January 7, 2005.  The proposed merger is a stock-for-stock transaction valued at approximately $24.1 million, at the time it was entered into.  By the terms of the agreement, upon closing, we would issue approximately 6.0 million shares of our common stock to the stockholders of CoSine.  The transaction would result in net cash to Tut Systems of approximately

26



$22.75 million, and the transaction is expected to close as soon as practicable following approval by the stockholders of both companies. We are proposing to acquire CoSine primarily to provide additional financial liquidity.  Upon closing, we would plan to honor CoSine’s existing customers’ support agreements, but do not expect to offer its products for sale to new customers.  We will not have any additional employees or facilities as a result of the transaction.

On February 11, 2005 we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization with Copper Mountain Networks, Inc. (“Copper Mountain”). The proposed merger will be a stock-for-stock transaction valued at approximately $10 million. Upon closing the Copper Mountain transaction, we will issue approximately 2.5 million shares of our common stock to the stockholders of Copper Mountain. The Copper Mountain transaction is conditioned upon the approval of the merger by the holders of a majority of the shares of Copper Mountain common stock, and other customary closing conditions. We are acquiring Copper Mountain to expand and upgrade our line of video processing products. We will honor Copper Mountain’s existing customer support agreements, but do not expect to offer any of Copper Mountain’s existing products for sale after the completion of the transaction. We will have approximately 41 additional employees and will add a research and development facility in San Diego, California as a result of the transaction.

We intend to continue to evaluate new acquisition candidates, divestiture and diversification strategies, and if we fail to manage the integration of acquired companies, it could adversely affect our operations and growth strategy. Any acquisition involves 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. Additionally, we may incur unanticipated expenses, difficulties and other adverse consequences relating to the integration of technologies, research and development, and administrative and other functions. Any future acquisitions may also result in potentially dilutive issuances of our equity securities, acquisition or divestiture related write-offs and the assumption of debt and contingent liabilities. Any of the above factors could adversely affect our revenue, profitability, operations or growth strategy.

Our stock price is volatile, and, if you invest in our Company,Tut Systems, you may suffer a loss of some or all of your investment.

The market price and trading volume of our common stock has been subject to significant volatility, and this trend may continue. In particular, trading volume historically has been low and the market price of our common stock has increased dramatically in recent months. Since the announcement of our acquisition of VTC, the closing price of our common stock, as traded on The Nasdaq National Market, has fluctuated from a low of $1.23 to a high of $7.49 per share. The value of our common stock may decline regardless of our operating performance or prospects. Factors affecting our market price include:

 

our perceived prospects;

 

variations in our operating results and whether we have achieved our key business targets;

 

the limited number of shares of our common stock available for purchase or sale in the public markets;

 

differences between our reported results and those expected by investors and securities analysts;

 

announcements of new contracts, products or technological innovations by us or our competitors; and

 

market reaction to any acquisitions, joint ventures or strategic investments announced by us or our competitors.

 

Recent events have caused stock prices for many companies, including ours, to fluctuate in ways unrelated or disproportionate to their operating performance. The general economic, political and stock market conditions that may affect the market price of our common stock are beyond our control. The market price of our common stock at any particular time may not remain the market price in the future. In the past, securities class action litigation has been instituted against companies following periods of volatility in the market price of their securities. Any such litigation, if instituted against us, could result in substantial costs and a diversion of management’s attention and resources.

 

Future sales of shares of our common stock could cause our stock price to decline.

Substantially all of our common stock may be sold without restriction in the public markets, subject only in the case of shares held by our officers and directors and affiliates to volume and manner of sale restrictions (other than as described in the following sentence). The approximately 3.3 million shares of common stock that we issued to Tektronix in connection with our November 2002 acquisition of VTC are restricted securities, as that term is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act, and therefore subject to certain restrictions. However, we are contractually obligated to file and keep effective a registration statement in order to allow Tektronix to sell these shares to the public. Likewise, Tektronix has the right (subject to certain exceptions) to include these shares in certain registration statements pursuant to which we may sell shares of our common stock.  On January 25, 2005, Tektronix sold 1.0 million shares of

common stock.  At March 31, 2005, Tektronix owns 2.3 million shares of common stock.

Sales of a substantial number of shares of common stock in the public market, whether or not in connection with this offering, or the perception that these sales could occur could materially and adversely affect our stock price and make it more difficult for us to sell equity securities in the future at a time and price we deem appropriate.

Our charter, bylaws, retention and change of control plans and Delaware law contain provisions that could delay or prevent a change in control.

Certain provisions of our charter and bylaws and our retention and change of control plans, the “Plans,” may have the effect of making it more difficult for a third-party to acquire, or of discouraging a third-party from attempting to acquire, control of us. The provisions of the charter and bylaws and the Plans could limit the price that certain investors may be willing to pay in the future for shares of our common stock. Our charter and bylaws provide for a classified board of directors, eliminate cumulative voting in the election of directors, restrict our stockholders from acting by written consent and calling special meetings, and provide for procedures for advance notification of stockholder nominations and proposals. In addition, our Boardboard has the authority to issue up to 5,000,000

shares of preferred stock and to determine the price, rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions, including voting rights, of those shares without any further vote or action by the stockholders. The issuance of preferred stock, while providing flexibility in connection with possible financings or acquisitions or other corporate purposes, could have the effect of making it more difficult for a third-party to acquire a majority of our outstanding voting stock. The Plans provide for severance payments and accelerated stock option vesting in the event of termination of employment following a change of control. The provisions of the charter and bylaws, and the Plans, as well as Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, to which we are subject, could discourage potential acquisition proposals, delay or prevent a change of control and prevent changes in our management.

 

ITEM 3QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

ITEM 3.QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

We are exposed to changes in interest rates primarily from our investments in certain cash equivalents.equivalents and from our variable rate credit facility. Under our current policies, we do not use interest rate derivative instruments to manage exposure to interest rate changes. A hypothetical 100 basis point adverse move in interest rates along the entire interest rate yield curve would not materially affect the fair value of our interest-sensitive financial instruments at March 31,June 30, 2005. We do not anticipate any near-term changes in the nature of our market risk exposures or in management’s objectives and strategies with respect to managing such exposures.

 

We have no investments, nor are any of our significant sales, expenses, or other financial items denominated in foreign country currencies. All of our international sales are denominated in U.S. dollars. An increase in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to foreign currencies could make our products more expensive and, therefore, reduce the demand for our products.

 

ITEM 4CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

ITEM 4.CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as of the end of the period covered by this report (the “Evaluation Date”). Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded as of the Evaluation Date that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective such that the information relating to the Company, including our consolidated subsidiaries, required to be disclosed in our Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) reports (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Changes in internal control over financial reporting. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting which occurred during the firstsecond quarter of fiscal year 2005 and which have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 1.LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

ITEM 1.LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

Whalen v. Tut Systems, Inc. et al

On October 30, 2001, wethe Company and certain of ourits current and former officers and directors were named as defendants inWhalen v. Tut Systems, Inc. et al.,, Case No. 01-CV-9563, a purported securities class action lawsuit filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. An amended complaint was filed on December 5, 2001. A consolidated amended complaint was filed on April 19, 2002. The consolidated amended complaint asserts that the prospectuses from ourthe Company’s January 29, 1999 initial public offering and its March 23, 2000 secondary offering failed to disclose certain alleged actions by the underwriters for the offerings. The complaint alleges claims against usthe Company and certain of ourits current and former officers and directors under Section 11 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and under Section 10(b) and Rule 10b-5 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and alleges claims against certain of ourits current and former officers and directors under Sections 15 and 20(a) of the Securities Act. The complaint also names as defendants the underwriters for ourthe Company’s initial public offering and secondary offering. Similar suits were filed in the Southern District of New York challenging over 300 other initial public offerings and secondary offerings conducted in 1999 and 2000. Therefore, for pretrial purposes, theWhalen action is being coordinated with the approximately 300 other suits before United States District Court Judge Shira Scheindlin of the Southern District of New York under the matterIn Re Initial Public Offering Securities LitigationLitigation.. The individual defendants in theWhalen action, namely, Nelson Caldwell, Salvatore D’AuriaD ‘Auria and Matthew Taylor, were dismissed without prejudice by an October 9, 2002 Order of the Court, approving the parties’ October 1, 2002 Stipulation of Dismissal. On February 19, 2003, the Court issued an Opinion and Order denying ourthe Company’s motion to dismiss.

 

In June and July 2003, nearly all2004, a stipulation of settlement for the issuers named as defendantsclaims against the issuer-defendants, including the Company, was submitted to the Court in theIn Re Initial Public Offering Securities Litigation (collectively,. On February 15, 2005, the “issuer-defendants”), including our Company, approvedCourt granted preliminary approval of the settlement, conditioned upon the parties’ modification of a tentativeproposed bar order with respect to potential contribution claims. The settlement proposal that is reflected in a memorandum of understanding. Our Board of Directors approved the memorandum of understanding in June 2003 on certain conditions, including the number of issuers participating in the settlement. The memorandum of understanding is not a legally binding agreement. Further, any final settlement agreement would be subject to a number of conditions, most of which would beare outside of ourthe Company’s control, including approval by the Court. The underwriter-defendantsunderwriters named as defendants in theIn Re Initial Public Offering Securities Litigation (collectively, the “underwriter-defendants”), including the underwriters named in theWhalen suit, are not parties to the memorandumstipulation of understanding.settlement.

 

The memorandumstipulation of understandingsettlement provides that, in exchange for a release of claims against the settling issuer-defendants, the insurers of all of the settling issuer-defendants will provide a surety undertaking to guarantee plaintiffs a $1 billion recovery from the non-settling defendants, including the underwriter-defendants. The ultimate amount, if any, that may be paid on our behalf of the Company will therefore depend on the final terms of the settlement, agreement, including the number of issuer-defendants that ultimately approveparticipate in the final settlement, agreement, and the amounts, if any, recovered by the plaintiffs from the underwriter-defendants and other non-settling defendants.

In the event that all or substantially all of the issuer-defendants approveparticipate in the final settlement, agreement, the amount that we wouldmay be required to paypaid to the plaintiffs on behalf of the Company could range from zero to approximately $3.5$7.0 million, depending on plaintiffs’ recovery from the underwriter-defendants and from other non-settling parties.parties and the amount of insurance available under the Company’s applicable insurance policies. If the plaintiffs recover at least $1 billion from the underwriter-defendants, weno settlement payments would have no liability for settlement paymentsbe made on behalf of the Company under the proposed terms of the settlement. If the plaintiffs recover less than $1 billion, we believe that our insurance will likely cover some or all of our share of any payments towards satisfying plaintiffs’ $1 billion recovery deficit. Management estimates that its range of loss relative to this matter is zero to $3.5$7.0 million. Presently there is no more likely point estimate of loss within this range. As a consequence of the uncertainties described above regarding the amount we will ultimately be required to pay, if any, as of March 31,June 30, 2005, we have not accrued a liability for this matter.

 

WeIn re Copper Mountain Networks, Inc. Initial Public Offering Securities Litigation

Copper Mountain, which we acquired on June 1, 2005, was in December 2001, along with certain of its officers and directors, named as defendants in a class action shareholder complaint filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, now captionedIn re Copper Mountain Networks, Inc. Initial Public Offering Securities Litigation, Case No. 01-CV-10943 alleging violations of securities laws under Section 11 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 10(b) and Rule 10b-5 of the Exchange Act. As a result of the acquisition, we have inherited the responsibility and obligations of Copper Mountain to defend the claims in that case and we are exposed to any liability that may come out of the claims. TheCopper Mountain action described in this paragraph, like theWhalenaction described above, has been coordinated for pretrial purposes under the matterIn Re Initial Public Offering Securities Litigation. The individual defendants in theCopper Mountainaction were also dismissed without prejudice pursuant to the October 9, 2002 Order of the Court approving the parties’ October 1, 2002 Stipulation of Dismissal. On February 19, 2003, the Court issued an Opinion and Order denying Copper Mountain’s motion to dismiss. Copper Mountain entered into the same stipulation of settlement as we did in theWhalenaction described above. TheCopper Mountain stipulation of settlement is subject to other legal proceedings, claimsthe same terms, conditions and litigation arisingcontingencies as the stipulation of settlement we entered into with respect to theWhalenaction described above. At this time, we cannot estimate the amount that we may be required to pay the plaintiffs under a final settlement with respect to theCopper Mountainaction described in this paragraph.

ITEM 2.UNREGISTERED SALES OF SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
