Preliminary Note

      This amendment to the Registrant’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002 is being filed to correct language under Item 7: Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, Liquidity and Capital Resources, and to Item 8: Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, Note 2: Mergers and Acquisitions. No revisions other than those previously listed have been made to the Registrant’s financial statements or any other disclosure contained in such report.

 
Item 7: Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

      The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

      All assumptions, anticipations, expectations and forecasts contained herein are forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. The Company’s actual results could differ materially from those discussed here. For a discussion of the factors that could impact the Company’s results, readers are referred to the section below entitled “Factors that Could Adversely Affect Performance.”

      The preparation of the consolidated financial statements which are the basis of the following discussion and analysis requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The Company evaluates its estimates, including those related to bad debts, inventories, intangible assets, income taxes, warranty obligations, purchase commitments and contingencies. The estimates are based upon historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances at the time of the estimate, 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.

      The following are believed to be the critical accounting policies of the Company:

  •  revenue recognition;
 
  •  estimating allowance for doubtful accounts, inventory reserves and other allowances;
 
  •  accounting for income taxes;
 
  •  valuation of long-lived and intangible assets and goodwill; and
 
  •  determining functional currencies for the purposes of consolidating our international operations.

      Revenue recognition. We derive our revenue from primarily two sources: (i) product revenue, which primarily includes servers, controllers, chipsets and royalties, and (ii) services and support revenue which includes consulting and development fees. As described below, significant management judgments and estimates must be made and used in connection with the revenue recognized in any accounting period. Material differences could result in the amount and timing of our revenue for any period if our management made different judgments or utilized different estimates.

      We recognize revenue from the sale of servers, controllers and chipsets when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the product has been delivered, the fee is fixed or determinable and collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. Delivery generally occurs when product is delivered to the customer’s common carrier.

      At the time of the transaction, we assess whether the fee associated with our revenue transactions is fixed or determinable and whether or not collection is reasonably assured. We assess whether the fee is fixed or determinable based on the terms of the contract.

      We assess collection based on a number of factors, including past transaction history with the customer and the credit-worthiness of the customer. We do not request collateral from our customers. If we determine that collection of a fee is not reasonably assured, we defer the fee and recognize revenue at the time collection becomes reasonably assured, which is generally upon receipt of cash.

      For all sales, we use either a binding purchase order or signed contract as evidence of an arrangement. Sales through some of our OEMs are evidenced by a master agreement governing the relationship together with binding purchase orders on a transaction by transaction basis. Our arrangements do not generally include acceptance clauses.

      We license software in multiple element arrangements in which a customer purchases a combination of software, post-contract customer support (“PCS”), and/or professional services. PCS, or maintenance, includes rights to upgrades, when and if available, telephone support, updates, and enhancements. Professional services relate to consulting services and training. When vendor specific objective evidence (“VSOE”) of fair value exists for all elements in a multiple element arrangement, revenue is allocated to each element based on the relative fair value of each of the elements. VSOE of fair value is established by the price charged when the same element is sold separately. The VSOE of fair value of PCS is based on renewal rates for the same term PCS. Revenue allocated to PCS is recognized ratably over the contractual term (typically one to two years). At December 31, 2002, revenue from software sales represented less than 2% of total revenue.

      We recognize revenue for consulting and development services ratably over the contract term. Our consulting and development fees are based on time and materials, and we recognize revenue as these services are performed. If these services are related to product development, we recognize the entire fee using the percentage of completion method. We estimate the percentage of completion based on our estimate of the total costs estimated to complete the project as a percentage of the costs incurred to date and the estimated costs to complete.

      Allowance for doubtful accounts, inventory reserves and other allowances. The preparation of financial statements requires our management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Specifically, management must make estimates of the collectibility of our accounts receivables. Management specifically analyzes accounts receivable and analyzes historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer credit-worthiness, current economic trends and changes in our customer payment terms when evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts. Our accounts receivable balance was $42.3 million, net of allowance for doubtful accounts and sales returns of $1.2 million as of December 31, 2002.

      Similarly, management must make estimates of potential future inventory obsolescence and purchase commitments. Management analyzes current economic trends, changes in customer demand and acceptance of our products when evaluating the adequacy of such allowances. Significant management judgments and estimates must be made and used in connection with establishing the allowances in any accounting period. Material differences may result in the amount and timing of our income for any period if management made different judgments or utilized different estimates.

      Accounting for income taxes. In preparing our consolidated financial statements we are required to estimate our income taxes in each of the jurisdictions in which we operate. We estimate our actual current tax exposure and the temporary differences resulting from differing treatment of items, such as deferred revenue, for tax and book accounting purposes. These differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which are included within our consolidated balance sheet. We must then assess the likelihood that our deferred tax assets will be recovered from future taxable income. If we believe that recovery of these deferred assets is not likely, we must establish a valuation allowance. To the extent we either establish or increase a valuation allowance in a period, we must include an expense within the tax provision in the consolidated statement of income.

      Significant management judgment is required in determining our provision for income taxes, our deferred tax assets and liabilities and any valuation allowance recorded against our net deferred tax assets. We have not recorded a valuation allowance as of December 31, 2002. If actual results differ from these estimates or we adjust these estimates in future periods we may need to establish a valuation allowance that could materially impact our financial position and results of operations.

      Net deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2002 were $19.5 million.

      We provide US taxes on earnings of our non-US subsidiaries, to the extent such earnings are not permanently reinvested. Significant management judgement is needed in estimating the extent to which earnings are considered permanently reinvested. As of December 31, 2002, the non-US earnings considered permanently reinvested were not material.

      Valuation of long-lived and intangible assets and goodwill. In 2002 we adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.” In lieu of amortization, we are required to perform an initial impairment review of our goodwill and an annual impairment review of goodwill thereafter. We completed our initial review in June 2002 with no impairment of goodwill indicated as a result of the review. We assess the impairment of identifiable intangibles and long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable or that the life of the asset may need to be revised. Factors we consider important which could trigger an impairment review include the following:

  •  significant underperformance relative to expected historical or projected future operating results;
 
  •  significant changes in the manner of our use of the acquired assets or the strategy for our overall business;
 
  •  significant negative industry or economic trends;
 
  •  significant decline in our stock price for a sustained period; and
 
  •  our market capitalization relative to net book value.

      When we determine that the carrying value of intangibles or long-lived assets may not be recoverable based upon the existence of one or more of the above indicators of impairment, we measure any impairment based on a projected discounted cash flow method using a discount rate determined by our management to be commensurate with the risk inherent in our current business model. Net intangible assets and long-lived assets amounted to $114.1 million as of December 31, 2002. We ceased to amortize approximately $43.6 million of goodwill, and reclassified approximately $0.9 million of other net intangible assets and related deferred taxes to goodwill upon adoption of SFAS No. 142. No adjustments to the lives of the other intangible assets were made during 2002.

      Determining functional currencies for the purpose of consolidating our international operations. We have several foreign subsidiaries which together account for approximately 41% of our net revenues, 11% of our assets and 14% of our total liabilities as of December 31, 2002.

      In preparing our consolidated financial statements, we are required to translate the financial statements of the foreign subsidiaries from the currency in which they keep their accounting records, generally the local currency, into United States dollars. This process results in exchange gains and losses which, under the relevant accounting guidance are either included within the statement of income or as a separate component of stockholders’ equity under the caption “Accumulated other comprehensive income.”

      Under the relevant accounting guidance the treatment of these translation gains or losses is dependent upon our management’s determination of the functional currency of each subsidiary. The functional currency is determined based on management judgment and involves consideration of all relevant economic facts and circumstances affecting the subsidiary. Generally, the currency in which the subsidiary transacts a majority of its transactions, including billings, financing, payroll and other expenditures would be considered the functional currency but any dependency upon the parent company and the nature of the subsidiary’s operations must also be considered. If any subsidiary’s functional currency is deemed to be the local currency, then any gain or loss associated with the translation of that subsidiary’s financial statements is included in stockholders’ equity. However, if the functional currency is deemed to be the United States dollar then any gain or loss associated with the translation of the subsidiary’s financial statements would be included within our consolidated statement of income. If we dispose of any of our subsidiaries, any cumulative translation gains or losses would be realized in our consolidated statement of income. If we determine that there has been a change in the functional currency of a subsidiary to the United States dollar, any translation gains or losses arising after the date of change would be included within our consolidated statement of income.

Table of Contents

      Based on our assessment of the factors discussed above, we consider the United States to be the functional currency for each of our international subsidiaries except for our Japanese subsidiary, where we consider the Japanese yen to be the subsidiary’s functional currency. In January 2003 we acquired Best Gmbh, a German software company. The functional currency for Best has been determined to be the Euro.

     Revenue

      The Company’s revenue in 2002 was principally derived from three major categories. The first category was made up of stand-alone servers which connect digital color copiers with computer networks. This category includes the Fiery X, Z and Q series, the Splash G series, and Edox products and accounted for a majority of the Company’s revenue prior to 1999. The second category consisted of embedded desktop controllers, bundled color solutions, chipset solutions and software RIPs primarily for the office market. The third category consists of controllers for digital black and white products. Other revenue consisted of spares, licensing of certain products, eBeam, software solutions and Unimobile, which individually are an insignificant part of the total 2002 revenue.

      Revenue was $350.2 million in 2002, compared to $517.6 million in 2001 and $588.4 million in 2000, which resulted in a 32% decrease in 2002 versus 2001 and a decrease of 12% in 2001 compared to 2000. The corresponding unit volume decreased by 40% in 2002 over 2001 and decreased by 12% in 2001 over 2000. The decrease in revenue in 2002 from 2001 was primarily from a decrease in the volume of product shipped, a reflection of the continued decline in general economic conditions. The decrease in revenue in 2001 from 2000 was primarily from a decline in average selling prices due to changes in product mix, as businesses looked to contain costs in a weakened economy.

      Throughout all categories, the number of units shipped declined in 2002 as compared to 2001. In the embedded and design-licensed color solution category there was a change in the product mix toward the higher-end products evidenced by a higher average selling price. In all of the other categories, the product mix resulted in a lower average selling price, which combined with lower shipping volumes, accounted for the decrease in revenue.

      During 2001, a shift in the revenue mix away from the higher-priced stand-alone color servers to the embedded and design-licensed color solution category led to the decline in revenues in the stand-alone category and the increase in the embedded category from 2000. The move reflected the poor economic climate of 2001, as companies strove to maximize their results and minimize capital expenditures.

      The embedded category includes embedded boards, chipsets and design-licensed color solution products. Embedded boards are generally characterized by higher unit volumes but lower unit prices and associated margins than the Company has experienced in its more traditional stand-alone server line of products. The chipset and design-licensed solutions can be characterized by lower unit prices but significantly higher per unit margins compared to the traditional stand-alone server line of products. The black and white product category can be characterized by much higher unit volumes and lower unit prices and associated margins than the Company has experienced in its more traditional stand-alone server line of products. To the extent these categories do not grow over time in absolute terms, or if the Company is not able to meet demand for higher unit volumes, it could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s operating results. There can be no assurance that the new products for 2003 will be qualified by all the OEMs, or that they will successfully compete, or be accepted by the market, or otherwise be able to effectively replace the volume of revenue and/ or income from the older products.

      The Company also believes that in addition to the factors described above, price reductions for all of its products may affect revenues in the future. The Company has made and may in the future make price reductions for its products in order to drive demand and remain competitive. Depending upon the price-elasticity of demand for the Company’s products, the pricing and quality of competitive products, and other economic and competitive conditions, such price reductions may have an adverse impact on the Company’s revenues and profits. If the Company is not able to compensate for lower gross margins that may result from price reductions with an increased volume of sales, its results of operations could be adversely affected. In addition, if the Company’s revenue in the future depends more upon sales of products with relatively lower gross margins than the Company obtained in 2002 (such as embedded controllers for printers, embedded controllers for color and black-and-white copiers, and stand-alone controllers for black-and-white copiers), results of operations may be adversely affected.

      Shipments by geographic area for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000 were as follows:

      The decrease in revenue between 2002 and 2001 stems from decreased sales of all products in all regions except the Rest of World. The Rest of World region includes the Asia Pacific market, where penetration of new markets has kept revenues at the same level during 2002 and 2001. The decline in revenues during 2001 from 2000 was a reflection of the difficult economic times across all regions. Deteriorating worldwide economic conditions may continue to have an adverse impact on the Company’s results of operations in the future.

      As shipments to some of the Company’s OEM partners are made to centralized purchasing and manufacturing locations which in turn sell through to other locations, the Company believes that non-U.S. sales of its products into each region may differ from what is reported, though accurate data is difficult to obtain. The Company expects that non-U.S. sales will continue to represent a significant portion of its total revenue.

      Substantially all of the revenue for the last three years was attributable to sales of products through the Company’s OEM channels with such partners as Canon, Epson, Fuji-Xerox, IBM, Hewlett-Packard, Kodak/ Danka Business Systems, Konica, Minolta, Océ, Ricoh, Sharp, Toshiba, Xerox and others. During 2002, the Company continued to work on both increasing the number of OEM partners, and expanding the size of existing relationships with OEM partners. The Company relied on four OEM partners, Canon, Xerox, Minolta and Ricoh in aggregate for 74%, 79%, and 76% of its revenue for 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. In the event that any of these OEM relationships are scaled back or discontinued, the Company may experience a significant adverse impact on its financial condition and results of operations. In addition, no assurance can be given that the Company’s relationships with these OEM partners will continue.

      The Company continues to work on the development of products utilizing the Fiery, Splash and EDOX architecture and other products and intends to continue to introduce new generations of server and controller products and other new product lines with current and new OEM’s in 2003 and beyond. No assurance can be given that the introduction or market acceptance of new, current or future products will be successful.

     Gross Margins

      The Company’s gross margin was 52%, 45% and 47% for 2002, 2001 and 2000 respectively. The increase in gross margin from 45% to 52% from 2001 to 2002 resulted principally from the migration to a design-license

model on certain of our products, enhancements of our software suite, the utilization of fewer contract manufacturers for cost savings and favorable component pricing. The decrease in gross margin from 47% to 45% from 2000 to 2001 was primarily due to a higher mix of low-end products with relatively lower margins and the volatile components market.

      The Company’s color servers as well as embedded desktop controllers and digital black and white products are manufactured by third-party manufacturers who purchase most of the necessary components. The Company does purchase certain parts directly, including processors, memory, certain ASICs, and software licensed from various sources, including PostScript interpreter software, which the Company licenses from Adobe Systems, Inc.

      In general, the Company believes that gross margins will continue to be impacted by a variety of factors. These factors include the market prices that can be achieved on the Company’s current and future products, the availability and pricing of key components (including DRAM, Processors and Postscript interpreter software), third party manufacturing costs, product, channel and geographic mix, the success of the Company’s product transitions and new products, competition, and general economic conditions in the United States and abroad. Consequently, the Company anticipates gross margins will fluctuate from period to period.

      In addition to the factors affecting revenue described above, the Company expects to be subject to pressures to reduce prices, and as a result, gross margins for all of its products may be lower and therefore the Company’s current gross margins may not be maintained.

     Operating Expenses

      Operating expenses decreased by 13% in 2002 over 2001 and decreased by 7% in 2001 over 2000. Operating expenses as a percentage of revenue amounted to 47%, 37%, and 35% for 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Operating expenses in absolute dollars decreased $18.0 million before the amortization of goodwill and other acquisition-related charges in 2002 compared to 2001. There was a decrease of $3.1 million before the amortization of goodwill and other acquisition-related charges in 2001 compared to 2000. Beginning in 2001 and continuing through 2002 management has focused on reducing expenses during a difficult business climate. Careful management of discretionary expenditures and selective workforce reductions were used to achieve the reduced expenditures.

      Operating expenses for 2002 included approximately $4.4 million for the amortization of goodwill and other intangibles. In 2001 the amortization of goodwill and other intangibles was $12.3 million. In 2000 the Company included in operating expenses $23.6 million of acquisition related costs and the amortization of goodwill and other intangibles from the acquisition of Splash.

      The Company anticipates that operating expenses may increase both in absolute dollars and as a percentage of revenue as investments are made in new business areas and acquired companies are integrated.

      The components of operating expenses are detailed below.

     Research and Development

      Expenses for research and development consist primarily of personnel-related and facility expenses and, to a lesser extent, consulting, depreciation and costs of prototype materials. Research and development expenses were $90.0 million or 26% of revenue in 2002 compared to $98.1 million or 19% of revenue in 2001 and $94.1 million or 16% of revenue in 2000. The $8.1 million or 8% decrease in absolute dollars from 2001 to 2002 stems from the company-wide effort to control spending, including payroll-related costs. The increase in 2001 from 2000 in research and development expenses was mainly due to an increase in research and development projects. The Company believes that the development of new products and the enhancement of existing products are essential to its continued success, and intends to continue to devote substantial resources to research and product development efforts. The Company expects that its research and development expenses may increase in absolute dollars and also as a percentage of revenue. As part of its cost containment practices, the Company now reviews all projects on a periodic basis for estimated return on investment. Those projects that do not meet certain criteria are halted.

     Sales and Marketing

      Sales and marketing expenses include personnel expenses, costs for trade shows, marketing programs and promotional materials, sales commissions, travel and entertainment expenses, depreciation, and costs associated with sales offices in the United States, Europe, Japan and other locations around the world. Sales and marketing expenses for 2002 were $50.6 million or 14% of revenue compared to $56.8 million or 11% of revenue in 2001 and $64.5 million or 11% of revenue in 2000. The $6.2 million decrease in absolute dollars in 2002 from 2001 was primarily attributable to the company-wide effort to control spending by fewer trade show participations, reduced personnel-related and facility expenses and overall cost containment.

      The Company expects that its sales and marketing expenses may increase in absolute dollars and possibly also as a percentage of revenue as it continues to actively promote its products, and launch new products. This expected increase might not proportionally increase with increases in volume if the Company’s sales continue to gravitate toward products such as software and design-licensed solutions which require less marketing support from the Company.

     General and Administrative

      General and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel-related expenses and, to a lesser extent, depreciation and facility costs, professional fees and other costs associated with public companies. General and administrative expenses were $21.8 million or 6% of revenue in 2002, compared to $25.5 million or 5% of revenue in 2001 and $24.8 million or 4% of revenue in 2000. While general and administrative expenses have increased as a percentage of total revenue in 2002 over 2001 and 2000, in absolute dollars the expenses decreased by $3.7 million during 2002. The decrease in 2002 was primarily a result of the company-wide effort to control spending through decreased consulting costs, reduced facility expenses and reduced personnel-related expense. The increase in 2001 over 2000 was primarily due to the increase in headcount to support the needs of the growing Company’s operations, including a business development department and a ERP implementation team. The Company expects that its general and administrative expenses could increase in absolute dollars and possibly also as a percentage of revenue in order to support the Company’s efforts to grow its business in future periods.

     Amortization of Goodwill and Other Identifiable Intangibles

      Amortization of purchased intangibles, excluding goodwill was $4.4 million or 1% of revenue in 2002. Amortization of goodwill and other identifiable intangibles was $12.3 million or 2% of revenue in 2001 and $3.3 million or 1% in 2000, while acquisition-related charges in 2000 were $20.3 million, or 3% of revenue. SFAS No. 142, issued in July, 2001, requires, among other things, the discontinuance of goodwill amortization for fiscal years beginning after March 15, 2001. Upon adoption of the standard in January 2002, we ceased amortizing goodwill and began periodic testing of goodwill for impairment. Net unamortized goodwill at December 31, 2002 was $43.6 million, including net intangible assets and deferred tax liabilities relating to acquired workforce totaling $0.9 million reclassified to goodwill as of January 1, 2002 as a result of the adoption of SFAS No. 142. No impairment of goodwill was identified upon completion of the transitional impairment test completed in June 2002.

     Other Income, net

      Net other income relates mainly to interest income and expense. Net interest income of $11.7 million in 2002 decreased by 28% from $16.3 million in 2001. Net interest income of $16.3 million in 2001 decreased by 21% from $20.4 million in 2000. The decrease in 2002 from 2001 and in 2001 from 2000 is due mainly to a lower return on investments as a result of market interest rates that have fallen in the last two years. Litigation settlement expenses in other income consist of the settlement of the 1997 securities class action lawsuit for $4.4 million, including legal fees and other related costs. While there has been no change in the Company’s view that the lawsuit had no merit, it determined that settlement of the lawsuit was in the best interest of the Company and its shareholders.

     Income Taxes

      The Company’s effective tax rate was 30% in 2002, 35.5% in 2001, and 40.8% in 2000. In each of these years, the Company benefited from tax-exempt interest income and the utilization of the research and development credits. The Company also benefited from a foreign sales corporation in 2001 and 2000. The Company’s effective tax rate was adversely impacted both by taxes provided on non-US earnings in 2002 and 2001 and by charges associated with the acquisition of Splash in 2001 and 2000. Excluding the impact of the Splash acquisition-related charges, the Company’s effective tax rate for 2001 and 2000 was 33%. The rate decreased in 2002 as a result of the elimination of non-deductible goodwill amortization due to the implementation of SFAS No. 142 and increased benefits related to the generation of tax-exempt interest income due to lower pre-tax income. The Company currently estimates that its effective tax rate for 2003 will be approximately 27% due to increased benefits from foreign sales.

Stock Option Exchange

      During the fourth quarter of 2001, the Company authorized the implementation of an option exchange program pursuant to which our current employees had the opportunity to exchange their outstanding options to purchase shares of our common stock for new stock option grants to be made to them at least 6 months and 1 day in the future. The strike price for the new stock option grants was subject to market risk, in that the price could have been higher than the strike price of the options tendered. Outstanding stock options granted between December 1, 1999 and May 31, 2000 under our 1990 Plan or our 1999 Plan were exchanged for new replacement options granted under our 1999 Plan during the second quarter of 2002. The number of shares of common stock subject to each new option were equal to two-thirds of the number of shares of common stock subject to the tendered option. Options for approximately 2,590,825 shares of common stock were eligible for participation in the option exchange program. At the conclusion of the option exchange program on October 12, 2001, the Company accepted for exchange and cancelled options with exercise prices ranging from $28.9529 to $59.8125 to purchase an aggregate of 2,500,143 shares of our common stock. We issued new replacement options to purchase 1,607,114 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $17.15 in exchange for those cancelled options. No compensation cost was recorded in conjunction with the stock option exchange.

Subsequent Events

      In January 2003 the Company acquired Best GmbH, a German-based software company providing market-leading proofing products for the print and publishing markets worldwide for approximately $9 million in cash. The purchase price will be allocated to tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired based on their estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. Total costs in excess of tangible and identifiable intangible assets will be recorded as goodwill. Goodwill is estimated at $4.8 million, with other identifiable intangibles estimated at $4.9 million and in-process research and development, which will be expensed, estimated at $1.2 million.

      On February 13, 2003, Printcafe Software, Inc. (“Printcafe”) entered into the following three agreements with the Company; a standby credit facility in the amount of $11 million plus a working capital facility which will provide up to an additional $3 million under certain circumstances; a stock option agreement granting the Company an option to purchase up to 2,126,574 shares of Common Stock at a purchase price equal to $2.60 per share; and a letter agreement that places certain restrictions on Printcafe’s ability to take actions in order to facilitate a business combination with a party other than the Company subject to customary “fiduciary out” provisions (collectively, the “Agreements”). The Agreements were entered into in connection with EFI’s proposal to acquire all of the outstanding shares of common stock of Printcafe at a purchase price equal to $2.60 per share, payable in cash or EFI stock. On February 19, 2003, Creo Inc. commenced litigation in the Delaware Court of Chancery against the Company, Printcafe and certain of Printcafe’s principal officers and directors, challenging and seeking to temporarily restrain the use of a newly adopted stockholder rights plan by Printcafe, the Agreements and seeking to restrain the Company and Printcafe from proceeding to enter into any further agreements with respect to a business combination. On February 21, 2003, the Delaware Court of Chancery denied the temporary restraining order sought by Creo. On February 26, 2003, the Company announced that it signed a merger agreement providing for the acquisition of PrintCafe for $2.60 per

share, or approximately $27.6 million, in cash or Company stock, for each outstanding PrintCafe share. The underlying litigation filed by Creo is still pending and management of the Company intends vigorously to defend such action. However, due to the inherent uncertainties of litigation, the Company cannot accurately predict the ultimate outcome of the litigation. Any unfavorable outcome of the litigation could have an adverse impact on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 
SFAS 143

      In August 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligation. SFAS No. 143 addresses financial accounting and reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated retirement costs. The company does not expect that the adoption of SFAS No. 143, which is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002, will have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

     SFAS 145

      In April 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 145, Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44 and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections. The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 145, the provisions of which are effective for financial years beginning after May 15, 2002, will have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

     SFAS 146

      In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities, which is effective for exit or disposal activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002. This Statement applies to costs associated with an exit activity, including restructuring, that does not involve an entity newly acquired in a business combination, or with the disposal of long-lived assets. The Company does not expect that the adoption of SFAS 146 will have a material effect upon our consolidated financial statements.

     SFAS 148

      In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation — Transition and Disclosure. This Statement amends SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, to provide alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, this Statement amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123 to require prominent disclosures in both annual and interim financial statements about the method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the method used on reported results. The disclosure provisions of this Standard are effective for fiscal years and interim periods ending after December 15, 2002 and have been incorporated into these financial statements and accompanying footnotes.

     FASB Interpretation No. 45

      In December 2002, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 45, Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantors, Including Direct Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others (“FIN 45”), which will significantly change current practice in the accounting for, and disclosure of, guarantees. Most guarantees are to be recognized and initially measured at fair value, which is a change from current practice. In addition, guarantors will be required to make significant new disclosures, even when the likelihood of the guarantor making payments under the guarantee is remote. In general, the Interpretation applies to contracts or indemnification agreements that contingently require the guarantor to make payments to the guaranteed party based on changes in an underlying that is related to an asset, liability, or an equity security of the guaranteed party. The Interpretation’s disclosure requirements are effective for financial statements of interim or annual periods ending after December 15, 2002 and have been incorporated into these financial statements and

accompanying footnotes, while the initial recognition and initial measurement provisions are applicable on a prospective basis to guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002.

     FASB Interpretation No. 46

      In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46 Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (“FIN 46”). The primary objectives of FIN 46 are to provide guidance on the identification of entities for which control is achieved through means other than through voting rights (“variable interest entities” or “VIEs”) and how to determine when and which business enterprise should consolidate the VIE (the “primary beneficiary”). This new model for consolidation applies to an entity in which either (1) the equity investors (if any) do not have a controlling financial interest or (2) the equity investment at risk is sufficient to finance that entity’s activities without receiving additional subordinated financial support from other parties. In addition, FIN 46 requires that both the primary beneficiary and all other enterprises with a significant variable interest in a VIE make additional disclosures regarding the nature, purpose, size and activities of the VIE and the enterprise’s maximum exposure to loss as a result of its involvement with the VIE. The Company is required to adopt this interpretation no later than July 1, 2003 for any VIEs in which it holds a variable interest that it acquired before February 1, 2003. The interpretation is effective immediately for any VIEs created after January 31, 2003 and for VIEs in which an enterprise obtains an interest after that date. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of this Interpretation on its financial condition and results of operations. Based upon its initial analysis, it is possible that the Company may consolidate one or both of the synthetic lease arrangements, as it may be considered the primary beneficiary of the variable interest entity, when the consolidation requirements become effective for our third quarter ending September 30, 2003.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

      Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments increased by $47.2 million to $498.4 million as of December 31, 2002, from $451.2 million as of December 31, 2001. Working capital increased by $32.1 million to $470.1 million as of December 31, 2002, up from $438.0 million as of December 31, 2001.

      Net cash provided by operating activities was $49.9 million, $126.6 million and $76.5 million in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Cash provided by operating activities decreased in 2002 compared to 2001 principally as a result of a decrease in net income and depreciation expense and decreases in the cash generated by the change in inventories, accounts receivable from customers and subcontract manufacturers, income taxes payable, and accounts payable. Cash provided by operating activities increased in 2001 over 2000 as a result of a decrease in inventories and accounts receivable from customers and subcontract manufacturers and an increase in income taxes payable, offset with a decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities.

      The Company has continued to invest cash in short-term investments, mainly municipal securities. Net purchases of short-term investments were $83.3 million in 2002 and $8.3 million in 2001, while net sales were $57.5 million in 2000. The Company’s capital expenditures generally consist of investments in computers and related peripheral equipment and office furniture for use in the Company’s operations. The Company purchased approximately $8.2 million, $19.3 million and $15.5 million of such equipment and furniture during 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. During 2002 the Company invested $1.7 million in the acquisition of Unimobile. The Company purchased land and facilities in Minnesota for approximately $4.8 million and incurred $7.1 million in land improvements at its Foster City campus during 2001. During 2000 the Company invested $83.8 million, net of cash received, in the acquisition of Splash.

      Net cash provided by financing activities of $9.2 million in 2002 were primarily the result of exercises of common stock options and distribution of common stock pursuant to the employee stock purchase plan. Net cash provided by financing activities of $13.9 million in 2001 was primarily the result of exercises of common stock options. Net cash used in financing activities of $82.5 million in 2000 was primarily the difference between the $100.0 million used to repurchase common stock and the cash received from exercises of common stock options. Net cash provided by financing activities in 2001 and 2000 includes approximately $3.1 million and $0.8 million, respectively, of cash used to repay long-term obligations.

     Off-Balance Sheet Financing — Synthetic Lease Arrangements

      In 1997 the Company entered into an agreement (“1997 Lease”) to lease a ten-story 295,000 square foot building on land owned by the Company in Foster City, California. The lessor funded the approximately $56.8 million construction cost of the building which was completed in July 1999. In conjunction with the 1997 Lease, the Company entered into a separate ground lease with the lessor of the building at a nominal rate and for a term of approximately 35 years. If the Company does not renew the 1997 Lease, the ground lease converts to a market rate.

      In December 1999 the Company entered into a second agreement (“1999 Lease” and together with the 1997 Lease, the “Leases”) to lease additional facilities, to be constructed adjacent to the first building discussed above. A 165,000 square foot building was completed in December 2001 at a cost to the lessor of approximately $43.1 million. Rent obligations for the additional facilities, which began in January 2002, bear a direct relationship to the funded amount, as described below. In connection with the 1999 Lease, the Company entered into a separate ground lease of the related parcels of land in Foster City with the lessor of the buildings at a nominal rate and for a term of 30 years. If the Company does not renew the 1999 Lease, the ground lease converts to a market rate.

      Both Leases have an initial term of seven years, with options to renew subject to certain conditions. The Company may, at its option, purchase the facilities during or at the end of the term of the Leases for the amount expended by the respective lessor to construct the facilities (approximately $56.8 million for the 1997 Lease and approximately $43.1 million for the 1999 Lease). The Company has guaranteed to the lessors a residual value associated with the buildings equal to approximately 82% of the their funding. The Company may be liable to the lessor for the amount of the residual guarantee if it either fails to renew the lease or does not purchase or locate a purchaser for the leased facilities at the end of the lease term. During the term of the Leases the Company must maintain a minimum tangible net worth. The Company is liable to the lessor for the total amount financed if it defaults on its covenants (approximately $56.8 million for the 1997 Lease and approximately $43.1 million for the 1999 Lease). In addition, the Company has pledged certain marketable securities or interest-bearing accounts, which are in proportion to the amount drawn under each lease. Under the 1997 Lease, the pledged collateral (approximately $73.2 million at December 31, 2002) may be withdrawn at any time, but withdrawal results in an increase to the lease rate and the imposition of additional financial covenant restrictions. The funds pledged under the 1999 Lease (approximately $43.1 million at December 31, 2002) are in a LIBOR-based interest bearing account and are restricted as to withdrawal at all times. The Company is considered a Tranche A lender of $35.3 million of the $43.1 million, while the lessor is considered a Tranche B lender for the remaining $7.8 million.

      The Company is treated as the owner of these facilities for income tax purposes.

      In January 2003 the FASB issued FIN 46. As noted under Recent Accounting Pronouncements, the primary objectives of FIN 46 are to provide guidance on the identification of entities for which control is achieved through means other than voting rights (“variable interest entities”) and how to determine when and which business enterprise should consolidate the variable interest entity (“primary beneficiary”). We continue to evaluate the impact of this Interpretation on our financial condition and results of operations. Based upon our initial analysis, it is possible that we may consolidate one or both of the synthetic lease arrangements, as

13


Table of Contents

we may be considered the primary beneficiary of the variable interest entity, when the consolidation requirements become effective for our third quarter ending September 30, 2003.

      Under both leases the Company has first loss guarantees to the lessors, which make the Company liable for declines in the value of these buildings up to approximately 82% of the cost of the construction of the buildings. The first loss guarantee requires payment upon the end of the lease. The Company has determined it is not necessary to record a reserve for a potential impairment on either of the buildings related to the 1997 Lease or 1999 Lease as the fair market value of the buildings exceeded the respective residual value guarantee. The Company will continue to assess the real estate market conditions to evaluate whether it needs to record any reserves under its first loss guarantee obligations.

     Derivatives

      We conduct our operations globally, however, our transactions are primarily conducted using the United States dollar. We enter into a limited number of forward foreign exchange contracts in order to hedge the currency fluctuations between the Company and its Japanese subsidiary. No forward foreign exchange contracts were outstanding at December 31, 2002. We do not use any derivatives for trading or speculative purposes.

     Financial Risk Management

      The following discussion about our risk management activities includes “forward-looking statements” that involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements.

      As a global concern, we face exposure to adverse movements in foreign currency exchange rates. These exposures may change over time as business practices evolve and could have a material adverse impact on our financial results. Our primary exposures are related to non U.S. dollar-denominated sales in Japan and operating expenses in Japan and the Netherlands. Our exposure to movements in foreign currency exchange rates will increase in 2003 after our acquisition of Best Gmbh, which has sales and expenses in the Euro. At the present time, we do not hedge against these currency exposures, but as these exposures grow we may consider hedging against currency movements.

      We maintain investment portfolio holdings of various issuers, types and maturities, typically U.S. Treasury securities and municipal bonds. These securities are classified as available-for-sale, and consequently are recorded on the balance sheet at fair value with unrealized gains and losses reported as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). These securities are not leveraged and are held for purposes other than trading.

      The Company’s inventory consists primarily of memory subsystems, processors and ASICs, which are sold to third-party contract manufacturers responsible for manufacturing the Company’s products. Should the Company decide to purchase components and do its own manufacturing, or should it become necessary for the Company to purchase and sell components other than the processors, ASICs or memory subsystems for its contract manufacturers, inventory balances and potentially fixed assets would increase significantly, thereby reducing the Company’s available cash resources. Further, the inventory the Company carries could become obsolete, thereby negatively impacting the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations. The Company is also reliant on several sole-source suppliers for certain key components and could experience a further significant negative impact on its financial condition and results of operations if such supply were reduced or not available.

      The Company may be required to compensate its sub-contract manufacturers for components purchased for orders subsequently cancelled by the Company. The Company periodically reviews the potential liability and the adequacy of the related reserve. The Company’s financial condition and results of operations could be negatively impacted if the Company were required to compensate the sub-contract manufacturers in amounts in excess of the accrued liability.

      In December 2001, Mr. Jan R. Coyle threatened to sue the Company and its customers for infringing a purported soon to be issued patent and for misappropriating trade secrets. The Company believes that Mr. Coyle’s threats are completely without merit. The Company has sought declaratory relief as well as an injunction against Mr. Coyle. See Item 3 “Legal Proceedings.”

      In February 2002, J & L Electronics, another company owned by Mr. Coyle, filed a complaint against the Company in the United States District Court for the District of Nevada alleging patent infringement, breach of non-disclosure agreements, misappropriation of trade secrets, violations of federal antitrust law, and related causes of action. The Company has denied all of these allegations and management believes this lawsuit is without merit and intends to defend the actions vigorously. See Item 3 “Legal Proceedings.”

      On September 16, 2002, ArrivalStar, Inc., a privately held Delaware corporation, (“ArrivalStar”) filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Georgia against fourteen defendants, including EFI, alleging that each of the defendants infringed one or more claims of six identified patents owned by the ArrivalStar. EFI believes that the plaintiff’s claims against it are without merit and intends to vigorously defend itself in this litigation. See Item 3 “Legal Proceedings.”

      In February 2003, Printcafe Software, Inc. (“Printcafe”) entered into three agreements with the Company; a standby credit facility in the amount of $11 million plus a working capital facility which will provide up to an additional $3 million under certain circumstances; a stock option agreement granting the Company an option to purchase up to 2,126,574 shares of Common Stock at a purchase price equal to $2.60 per share; and a letter agreement that places certain restrictions on Printcafe’s ability to take actions in order to facilitate a business combination with a party other than the Company subject to customary “fiduciary out” provisions (collectively, the “Agreements”). In February 2003, Creo Inc. commenced litigation in the Delaware Court of Chancery against the Company, Printcafe and certain of Printcafe’s principal officers and directors, challenging and seeking to temporarily restrain the use of a newly adopted stockholder rights plan by Printcafe, the transactions contemplated by the Agreements and seeking to restrain the Company and Printcafe from proceeding to enter into any further agreements with respect to a business combination. See Item 3 “Legal Proceedings.”

      The Company believes that its existing capital resources, together with cash generated from continuing operations will be sufficient to fund its operations and meet capital requirements through at least 2003.

Disclosures on Stock Option Programs

     Option Program Description

      Our stock option program is a broad-based, long-term retention program that is intended to attract and retain talented employees and align stockholder and employee interests. We consider our option program critical to our operation and productivity; essentially all of our employees participate. Of the options we granted last year, 90% went to employees other than the top 3 officers. The program consists of a broad-based plan under which options may be granted to all employees, directors and consultants. Option vesting periods range from 2 – 4 years, with an average vesting period of 3.5 years.

      During 2000, 3 company-wide grants were made. However, the listed officers did not receive options under the third grant until 2001. This has created the variance in the 2001 percentage of grants to officers compared to total options granted as compared to 2000 and 2002. The third grant to employees in 2000 was in lieu of the annual company-wide grant during 2001. The lack of a company-wide grant during 2001 has resulted in the decrease in grants as a percentage of outstanding shares in 2001 as compared to 2000 and 2002.

      The officers are restricted by company policy as to the dates when they can exercise their options. The inability to exercise when other employees can trade has resulted in the increase in the cumulative options held by officers as a percentage of the total options outstanding.

Factors That Could Adversely Affect Performance

      Our performance may be adversely affected by the following factors:

 
      We rely on sales to a relatively small number of OEM partners, and the loss of any of these customers could substantially decrease our revenues

      Because we sell our products primarily to our OEM partners, we rely on high sales volumes to a relatively small number of customers. We expect that we will continue to depend on these OEM partners for a significant portion of our revenues. If we lose an important OEM or we are unable to recruit additional OEMs, our revenues may be materially and adversely affected. We cannot assure you that our major customers will continue to purchase our products at current levels or that they will continue to purchase our products at all. Our OEM partners may elect and have elected in some cases to develop products on their own, rather than purchase our products. In addition, our results of operations could be adversely affected by a decline in demand for copiers or laser printers, other factors affecting our major customers, in particular, or the computer industry in general. Xerox, our second largest customer, has in the past experienced serious financial difficulties in their business. If Xerox again faces such difficulties, our profitability would be materially and adversely affected through, among other things, decreased sales volumes and write-offs of accounts receivables and inventory related to Xerox products.

      We rely upon our OEM partners to develop new products, applications and product enhancements in a timely and cost-effective manner. Our continued success depends upon the ability of these OEMs to meet changing customer needs and respond to emerging industry standards and other technological changes. However, we cannot assure you that our OEMs will effectively meet these technological changes. These OEMs, who are not within our control, have incorporated into their products the technologies of other companies in addition to, or instead of our products and may continue to do so in the future. These OEMs may introduce and support products that are not compatible with our products. We rely on these OEMs to market our products with their products, and if these OEMs do not effectively market our products our sales revenue may be materially and adversely affected. With the exception of certain minimum purchase obligations, these OEMs are not obligated to purchase products from us. We cannot assure you that our OEMs will continue to carry our products.

      Our OEMs work closely with us to develop products that are specific to each OEM’s copiers and printers. Many of the products we are developing require that we coordinate development, quality testing, marketing and other tasks with our OEMs. We cannot control our OEMs’ development efforts and coordinating with our OEMs may cause delays that we cannot manage by ourselves. In addition, our sales revenue and results of operations may be adversely affected if we cannot meet our OEM’s product needs for their specific copiers and printers, as well as successfully manage the additional engineering and support effort and other risks associated with such a wide range of products.

      We are pursuing, and will continue to pursue, the business of additional copier and printer OEMs. However, because there are a limited number of OEMs producing copiers and printers in sufficient volume to be attractive customers for us, we expect that customer concentration will continue to be a risk.

      We establish expenditure levels for operating expenses based on projected sales levels and margins, and expenses are relatively fixed in the short term. Accordingly, if sales to our OEM customers are below expectations in any given quarter, the adverse impact of the shortfall in revenues on operating results may be increased by our inability to adjust spending in the short term to compensate for this shortfall.

 
      If we are unable to develop new products, or execute product introductions on a timely basis, our future revenue and operating results may be harmed

      Our operating results depend to a significant extent on our continual improvement of existing technologies and rapid innovation of new products and technologies by us. Our success depends not only on our ability to predict future requirements, but also to develop and introduce new products that successfully address customer needs. Any delays in the launch or availability of new products we are planning could harm our financial results. During transitions from existing products to new products, customers may delay or cancel orders for existing products. Our results of operations may be adversely affected if we cannot successfully manage product transitions or provide adequate availability of products after they have been introduced.

      We must continue to make significant investments in research and development in order to enhance performance and functionality of our products, including product lines different than our Fiery, Splash and EDOX servers and embedded controllers. We cannot assure you that we will successfully identify new product opportunities, develop and introduce new products to market in a timely manner, or achieve market acceptance of our products. Also, when we decide to develop new products, our research and development expenses generally increase in the short term without a corresponding increase in revenue. Finally, we cannot assure you that products and technologies developed by our own customers and others will not render our products or technologies obsolete or noncompetitive.

 
      We license software used in most of our products from Adobe Systems Incorporated, and the loss of this license would prevent us from shipping these products

      Under our license agreements with Adobe, we are required to obtain a separate license for each type of copier or printer used with a Fiery Server or Controller from Adobe for the right to use Adobe PostScriptTM software in our products. To date, we have successfully obtained licenses to use Adobe’s PostScriptTM software for our products, where required. We cannot assure you that Adobe will continue to grant future licenses to Adobe PostScriptTM software on reasonable terms, in a timely manner, or at all. In addition, we cannot assure you that Adobe will continue to give us the quality assurance approvals we are required to obtain from Adobe for the Adobe licenses. If Adobe does not grant us such licenses or approvals, if the Adobe license agreements are terminated, or if our relationship with Adobe is otherwise materially impaired, we would be unable to sell products that incorporate Adobe PostScriptTM software, and our financial condition and results of operations would be materially and adversely affected. In some products we have introduced substitute software developed internally that does not require any license from Adobe. While we plan on expanding the number of products using internally developed software, there can be no guarantee that these products will meet market acceptance.

 
      If the demand for products that enable color printing of digital data continues to decrease, our sales revenue will likely decrease

      Our products are primarily targeted at enabling the printing of digital data. Demand for networked printers and copiers containing our technology decreased in both 2001 and 2002 due to the global economic downturn. We cannot assure you that demand will level off or increase in the future, nor can we assure you that the demand will level off or increase for the specific OEM printers and copiers that utilize our products. If demand for digital printing products and services containing our technology continues to decline, or if the demand for our OEMs’ specific printers or copiers for which our products are designed should continue to decline, our sales revenue will be adversely affected. We sell products that are large capital expenditures as well as discretionary purchase items for our customers. In difficult economic times such as we are now experiencing, spending on information technology typically decreases. As our products are of a more discretionary nature than many other technology products, we may be more adversely impacted by deteriorating general economic conditions than other technology firms. We are subject to economic sensitivity

that has harmed and could, in the future, harm our results of operations. We believe that demand for our products may also be affected by a variety of economic conditions and considerations, and we cannot assure you that demand for our products or our customers’ products will continue or improve from current levels.
 
      If we enter new markets or distribution channels this could result in higher operating expenses that may not be offset by increased revenues

      We continue to explore opportunities to develop product lines different from our current servers and embedded controllers, such as our Graphics Arts software package, Velocity software products, eBeam, PrintMe Networks and Unimobile, among others. We expect to continue to invest funds to develop new distribution and marketing channels for these and additional new products and services, which will increase our operating expenses. We do not know if we will be successful in developing these channels or whether the market will accept any of our new products or services or if we will generate sufficient revenues from these activities to offset the additional operating expenses we incur. In addition, even if we are able to introduce new products or services, the lack of marketplace acceptability of these new products or services may adversely impact the Company’s operating results.

 
      We face competition from other suppliers as well as our own OEM customers, and if we are not able to compete successfully our business may be harmed

      Our industry is highly competitive and is characterized by rapid technological changes. We compete against a number of other suppliers of imaging products. We cannot assure you that products or technologies developed by competing suppliers will not render our products or technologies obsolete or noncompetitive.

      While many of our OEMs sell our products on an exclusive basis, we do not have any formal agreements that prevent the OEMs from offering alternative products. If an OEM offers products from alternative suppliers our market share could decrease, which could reduce our revenue and adversely affect our financial results.

      Many of our OEM partners themselves internally develop and sell products that compete directly with our current products. These OEMs may be able to develop more quickly than we can products similar to ours that are compatible with their own products. These OEMs have chosen and may continue to chose to market their own products in addition to our products, even when their products are technologically inferior, have lower performance or cost more than our products. We cannot assure you that we will be able to successfully compete against similar products developed internally by our OEMs or against their financial and other resources, particularly in the black and white product market. If we cannot compete successfully against our OEMs’ internally developed products, our business may be harmed.

 
If we are not able to hire and retain skilled employees, we may not be able to develop products or meet demand for our products in a timely fashion

      We depend upon skilled employees, such as software and hardware engineers, quality assurance engineers and other technical professionals with specialized skills. We are headquartered in the Silicon Valley where competition among companies to hire engineering and technical professionals has historically been intense. In times of professional labor imbalances, it may be difficult for us to locate and hire qualified engineers and technical professionals and for us to retain these people. There are many technology companies located near our corporate offices in the Silicon Valley that may try to hire our employees. The movement of our stock price may also impact our ability to hire and retain employees. If we do not offer competitive compensation, we may not be able to recruit or retain employees. We offer a broad-based equity compensation plan based on granting options from stockholder-approved plans in order to be competitive in the labor market. If stockholders do not approve additional shares for these plans for future grants, it may be difficult for us to hire and retain skilled employees. If we cannot successfully hire and retain employees, we may not be able to develop products or to meet demand for our products in a timely fashion and our results of operations may be adversely impacted.

Our operating results may fluctuate based upon many factors, which could adversely affect our stock price

      We expect our stock price to vary with our operating results and, consequently, fluctuations in our results could adversely affect our stock price. Operating results may fluctuate due to

  •  varying demand for our products;
 
  •  success and timing of new product introductions;
 
  •  changes in interest rates and availability of bank or financing credit to consumers of digital copiers and printers;
 
  •  price reductions by us and our competitors;
 
  •  delay, cancellation or rescheduling of orders or projects;
 
  •  product performance;
 
  •  availability of key components, including possible delays in deliveries from suppliers;
 
  •  the status of our relationships with our OEM partners;
 
  •  the performance of third-party manufacturers;
 
  •  the status of our relationships with our key suppliers;
 
  •  the financial and operational condition of OEM partners and key suppliers;
 
  •  potential excess or shortage of employees;
 
  •  competition from OEMs;
 
  •  changes in product mix;
 
  •  costs associated with complying with any applicable governmental regulations
 
  •  volatility in foreign exchange rates and
 
  •  general economic conditions.

      Many of our products, and the related OEM copiers and printers, are purchased utilizing lease contracts or bank financing. If prospective purchasers of digital copiers and printers are unable to obtain credit, or interest rate changes make credit terms undesirable, then demand for digital copiers and printers may be significantly reduced, which may adversely impact our revenues and operating results.

      Typically we do not have long-term volume purchase contracts with our customers, and a substantial portion of our backlog is scheduled for delivery within 90 days or less. Our customers may cancel orders and change volume levels or delivery times for product they have ordered from us without penalty. However, a significant portion of our operating expenses are fixed in advance, and we plan these expenditures based on the sales forecasts from our OEM customers and product development programs. If we were unable to adjust our operating expenses in response to a shortfall in our sales, it could harm our quarterly financial results.

      We attempt to hire additional employees to match growth in projected demand for our products. If actual demand is lower than our projections as has occurred in the recent past, we likely will have hired too many employees and will therefore incur expenses that need not have been incurred and our financial results may be harmed. If demand exceeds our projections, we likely will have hired too few employees and may not be able to meet demand for our products and our sales revenue may be adversely impacted. Projecting demand is difficult in our business and no assurances can be provided that we will accurately project demand. If we cannot successfully manage our growth, our results of operations may be harmed.

 
The value of our investment portfolio will decrease if interest rates increase

      We have an investment portfolio of mainly fixed income securities classified as available-for-sale securities. As a result, our investment portfolio is subject to interest rate risk and will fall in value if market interest rates increase. We attempt to limit this exposure to interest rate risk by investing in securities with maturities of less than 3 years; however, we may be unable to successfully limit our risk to interest rate fluctuations and this may cause our investment portfolio to decrease in value.

Our stock price has been and may continue to be volatile

      Our common stock, and the stock market generally, have from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations. The market prices for securities of technology companies have been especially volatile, and fluctuations in the stock market are often unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the market price of our common stock. Our common stock price may also be affected by the factors discussed in this section as well as

  •  fluctuations in our results of operations, revenues or earnings or those of our competitors and OEMs;
 
  •  failure of results of operations, revenues or earnings to meet the expectations of stock market analysts and investors;
 
  •  changes in stock market analysts’ recommendations regarding us;
 
  •  real or perceived technological advances by our competitors;
 
  •  political or economic instability in regions where our products are sold or used;
 
  •  general market and economic conditions; and
 
  •  changes in accounting standards.
 
We face risks from our international operations and from currency fluctuations

      Approximately 47% and 50% of our revenue from the sale of products for the twelve-month periods ended December 31, 2002 and December 31, 2001, respectively, came from sales outside North America, primarily to Europe and Japan. We expect that sales to international destinations will continue to be a significant portion of our total revenue. We are subject to certain risks because of our international operations. These risks include the regulatory requirements of foreign governments which may apply to our products, as well as requirements for export licenses which may be required for the export of certain technologies. The necessary export licenses may be delayed or difficult to obtain, which could cause a delay in our international sales and hurt our product revenue. Other risks include trade protection measures, natural disasters, and political or economic conditions in a specific country or region.

      Given the significance of our non-U.S. sales to our total product revenue, we face a continuing risk from the fluctuation of the U.S. dollar versus the Japanese yen, the Euro and other major European currencies, and numerous Southeast Asian currencies. Although we typically invoice our customers in U.S. dollars, when we do invoice our customers in local currencies, our cash flows and earnings are exposed to fluctuations in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates between the currency of the invoice and the U.S. dollar. Our products may become expensive in the local currency of our customers, thereby reducing our ability to sell our product. We attempt to limit or hedge these exposures through operational strategies and financial market instruments where we consider it appropriate. To date we have mostly used forward contracts to reduce our risk from interest rate and currency fluctuations. However, our efforts to reduce the risk from our international operations and from fluctuations in foreign currencies or interest rates may not be successful, which could harm our financial condition and operating results.

 
We may be unable to adequately protect our proprietary information and may incur expenses to defend our proprietary information

      We rely on a combination of copyright, patent, trademark and trade secret protection, nondisclosure agreements, and licensing and cross-licensing arrangements to establish, maintain and protect our intellectual property rights, all of which afford only limited protection. We have patent applications pending in the United States and in various foreign countries. There can be no assurance that patents will be issued from these pending applications or from any future applications, or that, if issued, any claims allowed will be sufficiently broad to protect our technology. Any failure to adequately protect our proprietary information could harm our financial condition and operating results. We cannot be certain that any patents that may be issued to us, or which we license from third parties, or any other of our proprietary rights will not be challenged, invalidated or circumvented. In addition, we cannot be certain that any rights granted to us under any patents, licenses or other proprietary rights will provide adequate protection of our proprietary information.

22


Table of Contents

      From time to time, litigation may be necessary to defend and enforce our proprietary rights. Such litigation, whether or not concluded successfully for us, could involve significant expense and the diversion of our attention and other resources, which could harm our financial condition and operating results.

 
We face risks from third party claims of infringement and potential litigation

      Third parties have claimed in the past and may claim in the future that our products infringe, or may infringe, their proprietary rights. Such claims could result in lengthy and expensive litigation. Such claims and any related litigation, whether or not we are successful in the litigation, could result in substantial costs and diversion of our resources, which could harm our financial condition and operating results. Although we may seek licenses from third parties covering intellectual property that we are allegedly infringing, we cannot assure you that any such licenses could be obtained on acceptable terms, if at all. See “Legal Proceedings.”

 
Our products may contain defects which are not discovered until after shipping

      Our products consist of hardware and software developed by ourselves and others. Our products may contain undetected errors when first introduced or when new versions are released, and we have in the past discovered software and hardware errors in certain of our new products after their introduction. There can be no assurance that errors would not be found in new versions of our products after commencement of commercial shipments, or that any such errors would not result in a loss or delay in market acceptance and thus harm our reputation and revenues. In addition, errors in our products (including errors in licensed third party software) detected prior to new product releases could result in delays in the introduction of new products and incurring of additional expense, which could harm our operating results.

 
Seasonal purchasing patterns of our OEM customers have historically caused lower fourth quarter revenue, which may negatively impact our results of operations

      Our results of operations have typically followed a seasonal pattern reflecting the buying patterns of our large OEM customers. In the past, our fiscal fourth quarter (the quarter ending December 31) results have been adversely affected because some or all of our OEM customers wanted to decrease, or otherwise delay, fourth quarter orders with lower channel inventories. This impact has been increasingly mitigated, as our OEM customers have lowered channel inventories throughout the year. In addition, the first fiscal quarter traditionally has been a weaker quarter because our OEM partners focus on training their sales forces and have reduced sell through themselves. The primary reasons for this seasonal pattern are:

  •  our OEM partners have historically sought to minimize year-end inventory investment (including the reduction in demand following introductory “channel fill” purchases);
 
  •  the timing of new product releases and training by our OEM partners; and
 
  •  certain of our OEM partners typically achieve their yearly sales targets before year end and consequently delay further purchases into the next fiscal year (we do not know when our partners reach these sales targets as they generally do not disclose them to us).

      As a result of these factors, we believe that period to period comparisons of our operating results are not meaningful, and you should not rely on such comparisons to predict our future performance. We anticipate that future operating results may fluctuate significantly due to the continuation or changes in this seasonal demand pattern.

 
We may make acquisitions and acquisitions involve numerous risks

      We seek to develop new technologies and products from both internal and external sources. As part of this effort, we have in the past made, and will likely continue to make, acquisitions of other companies or other companies’ assets. Acquisitions involve numerous risks, including the following:

  •  difficulties in integration of operations, technologies, or products;
 
  •  risks of entering markets in which we have little or no prior experience, or entering markets where competitors have stronger market positions;
 
  •  possible write-downs of impaired assets;

23


Table of Contents

  •  potential loss of key employees of the acquired company;
 
  •  possible expense overruns;
 
  •  adverse reaction by customers, suppliers or partners of the acquired company or EFI;
 
  •  risk of changes in ratings by stock analysts,
 
  •  potential litigation surrounding transactions and
 
  •  inability to protect or secure technology rights.

      Mergers and acquisitions of companies are inherently risky, and we cannot assure you that our previous or future acquisitions will be successful and will not harm our business, operating results, financial condition, or stock price.

 
The location and concentration of our facilities subjects us to the risk of earthquakes, floods or other natural disasters

      Our corporate headquarters, including most of our research and development facilities and manufacturing operations, are located in the San Francisco Bay Area, an area known for seismic activity. This area has also experienced flooding in the past. In addition, many of the components necessary to supply our products are purchased from suppliers subject to risk from natural disasters, based in areas including the San Francisco Bay Area, Taiwan, and Japan. A significant natural disaster, such as an earthquake or a flood, could harm our business, financial condition, and operating results.

 
We are dependent on subcontractors to manufacture and deliver products to our customers

      We subcontract with other companies to manufacture our products. We rely on the ability of our subcontractors to produce products to be sold to our customers, and while we closely monitor our subcontractors performance we cannot assure you that such subcontractors will continue to manufacture our products in a timely and effective manner. The weakened economy has led to the dissolution and bankruptcies of some of the subcontractors who are able to manufacture our products and has caused several other such subcontractors to merge, decreasing the available number of subcontractors. If the available number of subcontractors continues to decrease, it is possible that we will not be able to secure appropriate subcontractors to fulfill our demand in a timely manner or at all, particularly if demand for our products increases, or if we lose one or more of our current subcontractors. We cannot assure you that difficulties experienced by our subcontractors, including financial problems, and the inability to make or ship our products or fix quality assurance problems, would not harm our business, operating results, or financial condition. If we decide to change subcontractors, we could experience delays in setting up new subcontractors which would result in delay in delivery of our products. We have a high concentration of our products manufactured at a single subcontractor location, Sanmina-SCI in Colorado. Should Sanmina-SCI experience any inability to manufacture or deliver product from this location our business, financial condition and operations could be harmed.

 
We depend upon a limited group of suppliers for key components in our products

      Certain components necessary for the manufacture of our products are obtained from a sole supplier or a limited group of suppliers. These include processors from Intel and other related semiconductor components. We may not maintain long-term agreements with any of our suppliers of components. Because the purchase of certain key components involves long lead times, in the event of unanticipated volatility in demand for our products, we could be unable to manufacture certain products in a quantity sufficient to meet end user demand, or we may hold excess quantities of inventory. We maintain an inventory of components for which we are dependent upon sole or limited source suppliers and components with prices that fluctuate significantly. As a result, we are subject to a risk of inventory obsolescence, which could adversely affect our operating results and financial condition. Additionally, the market prices and availability of certain components, particularly memory, and Intel designed components, which collectively represent a substantial portion of the total manufactured cost of our products, have fluctuated significantly in the past. Such fluctuations in the future could have a material adverse effect on our operating results and financial condition including a reduction in gross margins.

We face the risk of decreased revenues in light of ongoing economic uncertainty

      The revenue growth and profitability of our business depends significantly on the overall demand for information technology products such as ours that enable printing of digital data. Softening demand for these products caused by ongoing economic uncertainty and reduced spending in the United States and other regions where we conduct business has resulted, and may further result, in decreased revenues, earnings levels or growth rates or inventory write downs. The United States and global economy, and particularly the markets for our products have weakened substantially over the past two years and market conditions continue to be challenging. This has resulted in individuals and companies delaying or reducing expenditures, including information technology expenditures. Further delays or reductions in information technology spending may have a material adverse effect on demand for our products and services, and consequently on our business, operating results, financial condition, prospects and stock price.

 
Item 7A: Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Market Risk

      The Company is exposed to various market risks, including changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Market risk is the potential loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices, such as foreign currency exchange and interest rates. The Company does not enter into derivatives or other financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. The Company enters into financial instrument contracts to manage and reduce the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The counterparties to such contracts are major financial institutions.

Foreign Exchange Contracts

      In the past the Company utilized forward foreign exchange contracts to hedge the currency fluctuations in transactions denominated in foreign currencies, thereby limiting the Company’s risk that would otherwise result from changes in exchange rates. The transactions hedged were intercompany accounts receivable and payable between the Company and its Japanese subsidiary. The periods of the forward foreign exchange contracts correspond to the reporting periods of the hedged transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses on intercompany balances and the offsetting losses and gains on forward foreign exchange contracts are reflected in the income statement. The Company had no forward foreign exchange contracts outstanding as of December 31, 2002.

Interest Rate Risk

      We maintain an investment portfolio of various holdings, types and maturities. These securities are generally classified as available for sale and consequently, are recorded on the balance sheet at fair value with unrealized gains and losses reported as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). At any time, a sharp rise in interest rates could have a material adverse impact on the fair value of our investment portfolio. Conversely, declines in interest rates could have a material impact on interest earnings for our portfolio. We do not currently hedge these interest rate exposures.

      The following table presents the hypothetical change in fair values in the financial instruments held by the Company at December 31, 2002 that are sensitive to changes in interest rates. The modeling technique used measures the change in fair values arising from selected potential changes in interest rates. Market changes reflect immediate hypothetical parallel shifts in the yield curve of plus or minus 100 basis points (BPS) over a twelve-month time horizon.

      The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt, including current maturities, was estimated to be $0.3 million as of December 31, 2002, and equaled the carrying value. The Company’s long-term debt requires interest payments based on a variable rate and therefore its fair value is not subject to interest rate risk.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1:     The Company and Its Significant Accounting Policies

     The Company and Its Business

      Electronics for Imaging, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), through its subsidiaries, designs and markets products that support color and black-and-white printing on a variety of peripheral devices. Its products incorporate hardware and software technologies that transform digital copiers and printers from many leading copier manufacturers into fast, high-quality networked printers. The Company’s products include stand-alone servers, which are connected to digital copiers and other peripheral devices, and controllers, which are embedded in digital copiers and desktop color laser printers. The Company also offers design-licensed solutions to printer and copier manufactures and software to the printing industry. The Company operates primarily in one industry and sells its products primarily to original equipment manufacturers in North America, Europe and Japan. Substantially all of the Company’s revenue to date has resulted from the sale of print servers and controllers.

     Significant Accounting Policies

     Basis of Presentation

      The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

       Cash, Cash Equivalents and Short-term Investments

      The Company invests its excess cash in deposits with major banks, money market securities, municipal, U.S. government and corporate debt securities. By policy, the Company invests primarily in high-grade marketable securities. The Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of default by the financial institutions or issuers of these investments to the extent of amounts recorded on the consolidated balance sheet.

      The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. Typically, the cost of these investments has approximated fair value. Marketable investments are classified as available-for-sale or held-to-maturity. Available-for-sale are stated at fair value with unrealized gains and losses reported as a separate component of stockholders’ equity, net of deferred income taxes. Held-to-maturity securities are stated at amortized cost. During 2002 certain held-to-maturity securities, used as collateral related to one of the synthetic lease arrangements, were converted upon completion of construction of the associated building into a direct investment in the synthetic lease arrangement. Realized gains and losses on sales of investments are included in other income.

     Concentration of Credit Risk

      The Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of default by any of its customers to the extent of amounts recorded on the consolidated balance sheet. Approximately 74% of the Company’s revenues are derived from four customers. The Company performs ongoing evaluations of the collectibility of the accounts receivable balances for its customers and maintains reserves for estimated credit losses; actual losses have not historically been significant.

 
      Inventories

      Inventories are stated at standard cost, which approximates the lower of actual cost using a first-in, first-out method, or market. The Company periodically reviews its inventories for potential slow-moving or obsolete items and writes down specific items to net realizable value as appropriate.

 
      Property and Equipment

      Property and equipment is recorded at cost. Depreciation on assets is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The estimated life for desktop and laptop computers is

31


Table of Contents

ELECTRONICS FOR IMAGING, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

18 months, while all other assets are considered to have a 3-year life. Leasehold improvements are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the improvements or the lease term, if shorter. Land improvements are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the improvements.

 
      Long-lived Assets

      Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of these assets may not be recoverable. The Company measures the assets for impairment based upon the estimated future discounted cash flows from the asset.

 
      Amortization of Identifiable Intangible Assets

      Intangible assets acquired to date are being amortized on a straight-line basis over periods ranging from 1 to 7 years.

      In July 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after March 15, 2001. SFAS No. 142 requires, among other things, the discontinuance of goodwill amortization. In addition, upon adoption, the standard includes provisions for the reclassification of certain existing recognized intangibles as goodwill, reassessment of the useful lives of existing recognized intangibles, and reclassification of certain intangibles out of previously reported goodwill. Upon adoption of the standard on January 1, 2002, we ceased amortizing goodwill and reclassified net intangible assets and deferred tax liabilities relating to acquired workforce totaling $0.9 million to goodwill. No changes were made to the useful lives of amortizable identifiable intangible assets in connection with the adoption of SFAS No. 142.

      The provisions of SFAS No. 142 also require periodic testing of goodwill for impairment. A transitional impairment test was required to be completed within six months of adoption of SFAS No. 142 with any impairments treated as a cumulative effect of change in accounting principle. Annual impairment tests must be performed thereafter. The Company completed the transitional test, the result of which did not indicate any impairment, during June 2002.

      Aggregate amortization expense was $4.4 million, $12.3 million and $3.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively.

      As of December 31, 2002, future estimated amortization expense related to intangible assets is expected to be $4.4 million for 2003, $4.1 million for 2004, $3.1 million for 2005, $3.0 million for 2006 and $2.3 million for 2007.

 
      Revenue Recognition

      Revenue from the sale of servers, controllers and chipsets is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the product has been delivered, the fee is fixed or determinable and collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. Delivery generally occurs when product is delivered to a common carrier.

      Revenue for consulting and development services is recognized ratably over the contract term. Consulting and development services are billed based on time and materials, and revenue is recognized as these services are performed. If these services are related to product development, the entire fee is recognized using the percentage of completion method. The percentage of completion is based on an estimate of the total costs estimated to complete the project as a percentage of the costs incurred to date and the estimated costs to complete.

      Software in multiple element arrangements in which a customer purchases a combination of software, post-contract customer support (“PCS”), and/or professional services is sold under license agreements. PCS, or maintenance, includes rights to upgrades, when and if available, telephone support, updates, and enhancements. Professional services relate to consulting services and training. When vendor specific objective evidence (“VSOE”) of fair value exists for all elements in a multiple element arrangement, revenue is allocated to each element based on the relative fair value of each of the elements. VSOE of fair value is established by the price charged when the same element is sold separately. The VSOE of fair value of PCS is

33


Table of Contents

ELECTRONICS FOR IMAGING, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

based on renewal rates for the same term PCS. Revenue allocated to PCS is recognized ratably over the contractual term (typically one to two years). At December 31, 2002, revenue from software sales represented less than 2% of total revenue.

 
      Fair Value of Financial Instruments

      The carrying amounts of cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments, accounts receivable, long-term investments, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and bonds payable as presented in the financial statements, approximate fair value based on the nature of these instruments and prevailing interest rates.

 
      Income Taxes

      The Company accounts for income taxes under the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 (SFAS 109), “Accounting for Income Taxes”. Under SFAS 109, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities, using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The company has provided U.S. taxes on non-U.S. income to the extent these earnings are considered not permanently reinvested.

 
      Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Risk Management

      The Company operates internationally, giving rise to exposure to market risk from changes in foreign exchange rates. Derivative financial instruments, in the form of forward contracts, are used by the Company to reduce those risks. The Company does not hold or issue financial or derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. The magnitude and volume of such transactions were not material for the periods presented. No forward foreign exchange contracts were outstanding as of December 31, 2002.

 
      Employee Stock-Based Compensation

      In 1997, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (SFAS 123), “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.” As permitted under this standard, the Company has elected to follow Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 (APB 25), “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” in accounting for its stock options and other stock-based employee awards. Accordingly, no compensation cost has been recorded in the income statement for stock-based compensation granted to employees.

      Foreign Currency Translation

      The functional currency for all of the Company’s foreign operations, except for Japan, is the U.S. dollar. The functional currency for Japanese subsidiary is the Japanese yen. Where the U.S. dollar is the functional currency, translation adjustments are recorded in income. Where the Japanese yen is the functional currency,

translation adjustments are recorded as a separate component of stockholders’ equity. Foreign currency translation and transaction gains and losses have not been significant in any period presented.

 
      Computation of Net Income per Common Share

      Net income per basic common share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Net income per diluted common share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares and potential common shares outstanding during the period. Potential common shares result from the assumed exercise, using the treasury stock method, of outstanding common stock options having a dilutive effect.

      The following table presents a reconciliation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the three years ended December 31, 2002:

      Reclassifications

      Certain prior year balances have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation.

 
      Use of Estimates

      The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 
      Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
           SFAS 143

      In August 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligation. SFAS No. 143 addresses financial accounting and reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated retirement costs. The company does not expect that the adoption of SFAS No. 143, which is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002, will have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

35


Table of Contents

ELECTRONICS FOR IMAGING, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

 
           SFAS 145

      In April 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 145, Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44 and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections. The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 145, the provisions of which are effective for financial years beginning after May 15, 2002, will have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

 
           SFAS 146

      In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities, which is effective for exit or disposal activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002. This Statement applies to costs associated with an exit activity, including restructuring, that does not involve an entity newly acquired in a business combination, or with the disposal of long-lived assets. The Company does not expect that the adoption of SFAS 146 will have a material effect upon our consolidated financial statements.

 
           SFAS 148

      In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation — Transition and Disclosure. This Statement amends SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, to provide alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, this Statement amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123 to require prominent disclosures in both annual and interim financial statements about the method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the method used on reported results. The disclosure provisions of this Standard are effective for fiscal years and interim periods ending after December 15, 2002 and have been incorporated into these financial statements and accompanying footnotes.

 
           FASB Interpretation No. 45

      In December 2002, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 45, Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantors, Including Direct Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others (“FIN 45”), which will significantly change current practice in the accounting for, and disclosure of, guarantees. Most guarantees are to be recognized and initially measured at fair value, which is a change from current practice. In addition, guarantors will be required to make significant new disclosures, even when the likelihood of the guarantor making payments under the guarantee is remote. In general, the Interpretation applies to contracts or indemnification agreements that contingently require the guarantor to make payments to the guaranteed party based on changes in an underlying that is related to an asset, liability, or an equity security of the guaranteed party. The Interpretation’s disclosure requirements are effective for financial statements of interim or annual periods ending after December 15, 2002 and have been incorporated into these financial statements and accompanying footnotes, while the initial recognition and initial measurement provisions are applicable on a prospective basis to guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002.

 
           FASB Interpretation No. 46

      In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46 Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities (“FIN 46”). The primary objectives of FIN 46 are to provide guidance on the identification of entities for which control is achieved through means other than through voting rights (“variable interest entities” or “VIEs”) and how to determine when and which business enterprise should consolidate the VIE (the “primary beneficiary”). This new model for consolidation applies to an entity in which either (1) the equity investors (if any) do not have a controlling financial interest or (2) the equity investment at risk is sufficient to finance that entity’s activities without receiving additional subordinated financial support from other parties. In addition, FIN 46 requires that both the primary beneficiary and all other enterprises with a significant variable interest in a VIE make additional disclosures regarding the nature, purpose, size and activities of the VIE and the

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

enterprise’s maximum exposure to loss as a result of its involvement with the VIE. The Company is required to adopt this interpretation no later than July 1, 2003 for any VIEs in which it holds a variable interest that it acquired before February 1, 2003. The interpretation is effective immediately for any VIEs created after January 31, 2003 and for VIEs in which an enterprise obtains an interest after that date. We continue to evaluate the impact of this Interpretation on our financial condition and results of operations. Based upon our initial analysis, it is possible that we may consolidate one or both of the synthetic lease arrangements, as we may be considered the primary beneficiary of the variable interest entity, when the consolidation requirements become effective for our third quarter ending September 30, 2003.

Note 2:     Mergers and Acquisitions

 
      2002 Acquisitions

      In May 2002, the Company acquired Unimobile, Inc., a wireless messaging software company for approximately $1.7 million in cash and capitalized transaction-related costs. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase business combination and accordingly, the purchase price has been allocated to the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed on the basis of their estimated fair values on the date of acquisition. The Company may be required to pay certain additional amounts of up to $1.0 million in cash contingent upon Unimobile achieving certain revenue goals within 18 months of the acquisition. In accordance with SFAS No. 141, the contingent portion of the purchase price has been recognized as a liability to the extent that the net acquired assets exceed the purchase price. The Consolidated Financial Statements include the operating results from the date of acquisition. Pro forma results of operations have not been presented because the effects of this acquisition were not material.

     2000 Acquisitions

      On October 23, 2000, the Company acquired Splash Technology Holdings, Inc. (“Splash”) for total consideration of approximately $159.7 million, comprising of $146.8 million in cash, $6.0 million for the fair value of stock options assumed and $6.9 million of capitalized transaction-related costs. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase business combination and accordingly, the purchase price has been allocated to the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed on the basis of their estimated fair values on the date of acquisition as follows:

         
(In thousands)
Fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed

Trademarks and trade names
    5,500  
Goodwill
    53,275  
     
 
    $ 159,660  
     
 

      The intangible assets acquired consist of developed technology, trademarks and trade names, and workforce-in-place. The amount allocated to the purchased in-process research and development (“IPR&D”) was determined using established valuation techniques and was expensed upon acquisition because technological feasibility had not been established and no future alternative uses existed. The percentage of completion for such products was estimated to range from 50% to 90%. The value of this IPR&D was determined by estimating the costs to develop the purchased IPR&D into a commercially viable product, estimating the resulting net cash flows from the sale of the products resulting from the completion of the IPR&D and discounting the net cash flows back to their present value at rates ranging from 25% to 30%. The excess of the purchase price over tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed has been recorded as goodwill. The developed technology, trademarks and trade names are being amortized over

estimated useful lives ranging from 4 to 7 years. Amortization of the workforce-in-place and goodwill was discontinued after the adoption of SFAS No. 142 and those assets are now subject to impairment tests.

      Capitalized transaction related costs include direct transaction costs primarily for financial advisory and legal fees totaling $2.1 million, employee severance costs totaling $3.4 million and costs associated with terminating certain contracts of Splash totaling $1.4 million.

      The unaudited pro forma information set forth below represents the revenues, net income and earnings per share of the Company and Splash as if the acquisition were effective on January 1, 1999, and includes certain pro forma adjustments, including the adjustment of amortization expense to reflect purchase price allocations, interest income to reflect net cash used for the purchase and the related income tax effects of these adjustments.

Leases
 
Off-Balance Sheet Financing  — Synthetic Lease Arrangement

      In 1997, the Company purchased a 35-acre parcel of land in Foster City, California and began development of a corporate campus. In July 1999 the Company completed construction of a ten-story, 295,000 square foot building funded under a lease agreement entered into in 1997 (“1997 Lease”) and began making rent payments. Also in conjunction with the 1997 Lease, the Company has entered into a separate ground lease with the lessor of the building for approximately 35 years. If the Company does not renew the building lease, the ground lease converts to a market rate.

      In December 1999 the Company entered into a second agreement (“1999 Lease” and together with the 1997 Lease, the “Leases”) to lease additional facilities, to be constructed adjacent to the first building discussed above. A 165,000 square foot building was completed in December 2001 at a cost of approximately $43.1 million. Rent obligations for the additional facilities, which began in January 2002, bear a direct relationship to the funded amount, as described below. In connection with the 1999 Lease, the Company entered into a separate ground lease of the related parcels of land in Foster City with the lessor of the buildings at a nominal rate and for a term of 30 years. If the Company does not renew the 1999 Lease, the ground lease converts to a market rate.

      Both Leases have an initial term of seven years, with options to renew subject to certain conditions. The Company may, at its option, purchase the facilities during or at the end of the term of the lease for the amount expended by the respective lessor to construct the facilities ($56.8 million for the 1997 Lease and $43.1 million for the 1999 Lease). The Company has guaranteed to the lessors a residual value associated with the buildings equal to approximately 82% of their funding. The Company may be liable to the lessor for the amount of the residual guarantee if it either fails to renew the lease or does not purchase or locate a purchaser for the leased building at the end of the lease term. During the terms of the Leases the Company must maintain a minimum tangible net worth. The Company is liable to the lessor for the full purchase amount of the buildings if it defaults on its covenants ($56.8 million for the 1997 Lease and $43.1 million for the 1999 Lease). In addition, the Company has pledged certain marketable securities, which are in proportion to the amount drawn under each lease. Under the 1997 Lease, the pledged collateral ($73.2 million at December 31, 2002) may be withdrawn at any time, but withdrawal results in an increase to the lease rate and the imposition of additional financial covenant restrictions. The funds pledged under the 1999 Lease (approximately $43.1 million at December 31, 2002) are in a LIBOR-based interest bearing account and are restricted as to withdrawal at all times. The Company is considered a Tranche A lender of $35.3 million of the $43.1 million, while the lessor is considered a Tranche B lender for the remaining $7.8 million.

      The Company is treated as the owner of these buildings for federal income tax purposes.

      In January 2003 the FASB issued FIN 46. As noted under Recent Accounting Pronouncements, the primary objectives of FIN 46 are to provide guidance on the identification of entities(“variable interest entities”) for which control is achieved through means other than voting rights and how to determine when and which business enterprise should consolidate the variable interest entity (“primary beneficiary”). We continue to evaluate the impact of this Interpretation on our financial condition and results of operations. Based upon our initial analysis, it is possible that we may consolidate one or both of the synthetic lease arrangements, as we may be considered the primary beneficiary of the variable interest entity, when the consolidation requirements become effective for our third quarter ending September 30, 2003.

      The Company also leases office facilities in various locations in the United States and overseas for periods ranging from two to five years, expiring between March 2003 and November 2007.

      Rental expense amounted to approximately $4.7 million, $5.6 million, and $6.7 million for the fiscal years ended 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively.

     Purchase Commitments

      The Company sub-contracts with other companies to manufacture its products. During the normal course of business the sub-contractors procure components based upon orders placed by the Company. If the Company cancels all or part of the order, the Company may still be liable to the sub-contractors for the cost of the components purchased by the sub-contractors for placement in its products. The Company periodically reviews the potential liability and the adequacy of the related reserve. The Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations could be negatively impacted if the Company were required to compensate the sub-contract manufacturers for amounts in excess of the related reserve.

     Product Warranties

      The Company adopted FIN 45 during the fourth quarter of 2002. FIN 45 requires specific disclosures concerning the Company’s obligations under certain guarantees. The Company’s products are generally accompanied by a 12-month warranty, which covers both parts and labor. The warranty provision is based upon historical experience, by product, configuration and geographic region.

      Changes in the warranty reserves for the year ended December 31, 2002 were as follows:

      The Company and certain principal officers and directors were named as defendants in class action complaints filed in both the California Superior Court of the County of San Mateo on December 15, 1997, and the United States District Court for the Northern District of California on December 31, 1997 on behalf of purchasers of the common stock of the Company during the class period from April 10, 1997, through December 11, 1997. On August 30, 2001, the Federal Court dismissed the complaint filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, leaving only the California Superior Court case. On September 4, 2002, the Company announced that it had decided to settled all claims pending against the Company and certain of its current and former officers and directors in the California case. The Company incurred a charge to net income in the third quarter of 2002 of $4.4 million ($3.1 million, net of taxes) or $0.06 per share, including legal fees and costs related to the settlement. There is no change in the Company’s

view that the lawsuit was without merit. However, the Company determined that settling the suit was in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders.

      In January 1999, two class action complaints were filed naming Splash Technology Holdings, Inc. and certain of its officers (“Splash”), in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, on behalf of purchasers of the common stock of Splash during the class period from January 7, 1997 through October 13, 1998 (EFI acquired Splash in October 2000). The complaints alleged violations of securities laws during the class period. The two cases were subsequently consolidated into one case. On August 28, 2001, the Court dismissed the complaint with prejudice; however, the plaintiffs appealed that ruling. On December 4, 2002, after oral argument on the appeal, the plaintiffs dismissed their appeal, resulting in the final dismissal of the action against Splash. Throughout the litigation, the Company maintained its belief that these lawsuits were without merit.

      Over the past five years, Mr. Jan R. Coyle, an individual living in Nevada, has repeatedly demanded that the Company buy technology allegedly invented by his company, Kolbet Labs. In December 2001, Mr. Coyle threatened to sue the Company and its customers for allegedly infringing his soon to be issued patent and for allegedly misappropriating his alleged trade secrets. The Company believes Mr. Coyle’s claims are without merit and on December 11, 2001, the Company filed a declaratory relief action in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, asking the Court to declare that the Company and its customers have not breached any nondisclosure agreement with Mr. Coyle or Kolbet Labs, nor has it infringed any alleged patent claims or misappropriated any alleged trade secrets belonging to Mr. Coyle or Kolbet Labs through its sale of Fiery, Splash or EDOX print controllers. The Company also sought an injunction enjoining both Mr. Coyle and Kolbet Labs from bringing or threatening to bring a lawsuit against the Company, its suppliers, vendors, customers and users of its products for breach of contract and misappropriation of trade secrets. On March 26, 2002, the Northern District of California court dismissed the Company’s complaint citing the Court’s lack of jurisdiction over Mr. Coyle. The Company has filed an appeal of the Court’s dismissal with the Federal Circuit Court of Appeals in Washington, D.C.

      On February 26, 2002, one of Mr. Coyle’s companies, J & L Electronics, filed a complaint against the Company in the United States District Court for the District of Nevada alleging patent infringement, breach of non-disclosure agreements, misappropriation of trade secrets, violations of federal antitrust law, and related causes of action. On April 22, 2002, the Company filed a motion to dismiss the Nevada complaint. The motion is still pending. The complaint seeks unspecified damages. The Company denies all of the allegations and management believes this lawsuit is without merit and intends to defend the actions vigorously. However, due to the inherent uncertainties of litigation, the Company cannot accurately predict the ultimate outcome of the litigation. Any unfavorable outcome of the litigation could have an adverse impact on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.

      On September 16, 2002, ArrivalStar, Inc., a Delaware corporation, filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Georgia against fourteen defendants, including the Company, alleging that each of the defendants has infringed one or more claims of six identified patents owned by the plaintiff. The complaint alleges that the defendants infringe the patent claims by providing vehicle location communication services, arrival notifications and other related services. The complaint seeks damages, costs and an injunction. Based on an initial review of the complaint, the Company believes that the plaintiff’s claims against it are without merit and intends to vigorously defend itself in this litigation.

      In addition, the Company is involved from time to time in litigation relating to claims arising in the normal course of its business. The Company believes that the ultimate resolution of such claims will not materially affect the Company’s business or financial condition

Note 8:     Employee Benefit Plans

 
      Stock Option Plans

      As of December 31, 2002, the Company has six stock-based compensation plans, described below. The Company applies APB 25 and related interpretations in accounting for its plans. Accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized for stock-based compensation granted to employees under its fixed stock option plans. Had compensation cost for options granted in 2002, 2001 and 2000 under the Company’s option plans been determined based on the fair value at the grant dates as prescribed by SFAS 123, the Company’s net income and pro forma net income (loss) per share would have been as follows:

  As reported   $ 0.29     $ 0.71     $ 0.97  
    Pro forma   $ (0.11 )   $ 0.37     $ 0.08  

      The Company has five stock option plans: the 1989 Stock Plan (a “Predecessor Plan”) , the 1990 Stock Plan (a “Predecessor Plan”), the MGI 1985 Nonqualified Stock Option Plan (a “Predecessor Plan”), the Splash 1996 Stock Option Plan (a “Predecessor Plan”) and the 1999 Equity Incentive Plan (a “Stock Plan”). The Company does not grant any options under the Predecessor Plans, however all outstanding options under the Predecessor Plans continue to be governed by the terms and conditions of the existing option agreements for those grants. Under the Stock Plans, the exercise price of each option equals the market price of the Company’s stock on the date of grant and the option’s maximum term is 10 years. Options are granted periodically throughout the year and generally vest ratably over two to four years. At December 31, 2002, approximately 2.3 million shares were available for future grants to employees, directors or consultants.

      The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the attribution method with respect to graded vesting under the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, and the following assumptions:

      Stock Option Exchange

      During the fourth quarter of 2001, the Company authorized the implementation of an option exchange program pursuant to which our current employees had the opportunity to exchange their outstanding options to purchase shares of our common stock for new stock option grants to be made to them at a later date. The strike price for the new stock option grants was subject to market risk, in that the price could have been higher than the strike price of the options tendered. Outstanding stock options granted between December 1, 1999 and May 31, 2000 under our 1990 Plan or our 1999 Plan were exchanged for new replacement options granted under our 1999 Plan during the second quarter of 2002. The number of shares of common stock subject to each new option were equal to two-thirds of the number of shares of common stock subject to the tendered option. Options for approximately 2,590,825 shares of common stock were eligible for participation in the option exchange program. At the conclusion of the option exchange program on October 12, 2001, the Company accepted for exchange and cancelled options with exercise prices ranging from $28.9529 to $59.8125 to purchase an aggregate of 2,500,143 shares of our common stock. We issued new replacement options at an exercise price of $17.15 to purchase 1,607,114 shares of common stock in exchange for those cancelled options. No compensation cost was recorded in conjunction with the stock option exchange.

 
      Employee Stock Purchase Plan

      In 2001, the Company established an employee stock purchase plan which allows qualified employees (as defined) to purchase designated shares of the Company’s common stock at a price equal to 85% of the closing price on specified dates. The Company has initially authorized 400,000 shares for purchase under this plan, with an additional 0.5% of the common shares outstanding on the first day of each year being automatically added to the shares available for issue under this plan. The Company issued 276,716 shares during 2002 at an average purchase price of $14.75.

      Employee 401(k) Plan

      The Company sponsors a 401(k) Savings Plan (the “401(k) Plan”) to provide retirement and incidental benefits for its employees. Employees may contribute from 1% to 20% of their annual compensation to the Plan, limited to a maximum annual amount as set periodically by the Internal Revenue Service. The Company currently matches 50% of the employee contributions, up to a maximum of the first 4% of the employee’s compensation contributed to the plan, subject to IRS limitations. The Company match is annually determined by the Board of Directors. All matching contributions vest over four years starting with the hire date of the individual employee. Company matching contributions to the Plan totaled $1.1 million in 2002, $1.0 million in 2001 and $0.6 million in 2000. The employee and the Company’s contributions are cash contributions invested in mutual funds managed by an independent fund manager, or in self-directed retirement plans. The fund manager or the employee may invest in the Company’s common stock.

      The Company’s sales originated in the United States, The Netherlands and Japan. Shipments to some of the Company’s OEM partners are made to centralized purchasing and manufacturing locations, which in turn sell through to other locations. As a result of these factors, the Company believes that sales to certain geographic locations might be higher or lower, as accurate data is difficult to obtain.

Note 10:     Subsequent Events

      In January 2003 the Company acquired Best GmbH, a German-based software company providing market-leading proofing products for the print and publishing markets worldwide for approximately $9 million in cash. The purchase price will be allocated to tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired based on their estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. Total costs in excess of tangible and identifiable intangible assets will be recorded as goodwill. Goodwill is estimated at $4.8 million, with other identifiable intangibles estimated at $4.9 million and in-process research and development, which will be expensed, estimated at $1.2 million.

      On February 13, 2003, Printcafe Software, Inc. (“Printcafe”) entered into the following three agreements with the Company; a standby credit facility in the amount of $11 million plus a working capital facility which will provide up to an additional $3 million under certain circumstances; a stock option agreement granting the Company an option to purchase up to 2,126,574 shares of Common Stock at a purchase price equal to $2.60 per share; and a letter agreement that places certain restrictions on Printcafe’s ability to take actions in order to facilitate a business combination with a party other than the Company subject to customary “fiduciary out” provisions (collectively, the “Agreements”). The Agreements were entered into in connection with EFI’s proposal to acquire all of the outstanding shares of common stock of Printcafe at a purchase price equal to $2.60 per share, payable in cash or EFI stock. On February 19, 2003, Creo Inc. commenced litigation in the Delaware Court of Chancery against the Company, Printcafe and certain of Printcafe’s principal officers and directors, challenging and seeking to temporarily restrain the use of a newly adopted stockholder rights plan by Printcafe, the Agreements and seeking to restrain the Company and Printcafe from proceeding to enter into any further agreements with respect to a business combination. On February 21, 2003, the Delaware Court of Chancery denied the temporary restraining order sought by Creo. On February 26, 2003, the Company announced that it signed a merger agreement providing for the acquisition of PrintCafe for $2.60 per share, or approximately $27.6 million, in cash or Company stock, for each outstanding PrintCafe share. The underlying litigation filed by Creo is still pending and management of the Company intends vigorously to defend such action. However, due to the inherent uncertainties of litigation, the Company cannot accurately predict the ultimate outcome of the litigation. Any unfavorable outcome of the litigation could have an adverse impact on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.
