PART 1 ITEM 1 BUSINESS Radiant Technology Corporation (RTC) was incorporated in California in 1972. The initial public offering (IPO) was in 1979. The Company is engaged in the marketing, design, manufacture and service of highly precision thermal processing systems that are primarily used by manufacturers of microelectronic componentry. The Company's conveyorized ovens and furnaces are in worldwide demand to meet ever-changing process requirements in the semiconductor packaging, photovoltaic (solar cell), flat panel display, hybrid thick film firing, multichip module, and printed circuit board assembly industries. To obtain financial growth and stability we concentrate on managing the following key elements of its business: Technological Leadership: We are constantly in contact with our customers soliciting their input for both continued product improvement and new product development. We encourage customers anticipating new thermal processing requirements to contact us regarding their new opportunities and needs. Customer Diversity: Customers from different facets of the electronics and photovoltaic industries are sought and maintained. As demand for the various manufacturing elements in the electronics high technology industry shifts, RTC works to position itself to be ready to be immediately responsive to changing market emphasis. Service: We concentrate on providing timeliness, high quality, and responsiveness to our customer base. Most service concerns are handled by Phone, FAX or E-mail immediately. Customer Service Engineers, when needed, are dispatched within the day. Internationally, we retain Sales/Service representatives, factory trained, to provide the same level of dedication in placing the concerns and needs of the customer first. Modems are installed in customer's equipment, making it possible to analyze and implement customer requests online from Company headquarters. MARKETS AND PRODUCTS: The nature and high intensity of the infrared heat produced in our furnaces permits a high rate of heat absorption by the electronic parts processed through the furnaces, making them more adaptable to the exacting tolerances and high-speed heating requirements of certain industrial users. Infrared heating affords many advantages, including the furnace's ability to achieve operating temperatures in a shorter time span, operate at a faster conveyor belt speed, require less floor space, and use less electric energy, all of which result in significantly lower operating costs than for conventional ovens and furnaces. 2 Our near infrared processing systems are principally in demand for the following applications: Photovoltaics: RTC furnaces serve the photovoltaic industry in both contact firing and diffusion processes. For well over a decade, RTC has been the major supplier of sintering furnaces used by photocell manufacturers for firing metallized inks to form the front-side contacts and the back-side fields on the individual solar cells. The product ideally suited for sintering of the metallized inks is our C-series furnace. In recent years, RTC customers have been using a special version of our furnaces for phosphorus diffusion. An extremely precise thermal process is required for phosphorus diffusion as this step ultimately determines the cell's photovoltaic efficiency in generating power when exposed to sunlight. Semiconductor Packaging: In recent years, flip chip packaging technology has gained widespread acceptance. The first process, called wafer bumping, involves a reflow solder process to form the solder balls on all of the input/output (I/O) pads on the wafer. Because of the extremely small geometries involved, in some instances this process is best accomplished in a hydrogen atmosphere. For this application, RTC offers a high temperature furnace which provides a re-flow process in a 100% hydrogen atmosphere. For a second process, called "chip joining", RTC offers both a near infrared or forced convection oven. RTC's D-series ovens are well suited for low temperature curing applications such as "under-fill" epoxy or curing epoxy glob tops for chip on board manufacturers. For more traditional chip packaging technologies, RTC offers an AG-series furnace designed specifically for the silver-glass die-attach process. A critical thermal profile is required to achieve the proper mechanical and thermal properties of the silver-glass material. Other packaging thermal processes such as final lid sealing (metal or glass) and lead frame embed or pin brazing are easily accomplished in RTC's furnaces. Flat Panel Display: While the flat panel display market has been based primarily in Japan, it is a relatively new market for US equipment manufacturers. RTC has developed, in close cooperation with a flat panel manufacturer, one of the first US built systems for processing large glass panels. This RTC furnace can handle glass panels up to 58 inches wide. In addition to the challenges of achieving uniform heating over the entire panel width, RTC's furnace can meet the mechanical challenges of handling large glass panels while loading and unloading the furnace. Hybrid Thick Film: Hybrid thick film technology involves the firing of various types of "inks" screen printed on ceramic substrates to form conductors and resistors. Precise thermal profiles are required to achieve desired resistor values and electrical properties of hybrid conductors. RTC offers furnaces for firing thick film inks in air, and for firing thick film materials in a controlled, inert atmosphere with low oxygen content. Printed Circuit Board: RTC offers both infrared and forced convection heating technologies for printed circuit board assemblies. These ovens are used for high-volume reflow soldering of surface mount components to a printed circuit assembly. All RTC systems use on-board computers to provide appropriate man/machine interface with embedded microprocessors, achieving precise control of thermal operations. RTC's furnace computers provide power, temperature, belt speed, process gas measurement, profiling, maintenance requirements, data logging, local and remote communications diagnostics and operation, and computer integrated manufacturing. 3 MARKETING, SALES AND CUSTOMERS Our products are sold throughout the world, primarily to organizations engaged in the microelectronics or photovoltaic manufacturing. RTC maintains direct sales offices in the United States. Internationally the Company is represented through independent sales/service organizations. Note 1 to the Financial Statements depicts a breakdown of international sales. Customers tend to evaluate furnace vendors for technological leadership that results in high process yields for material produced. This primary benefit combined with high RTC up time, low meantime between failure (MTBF), quick reliable service and spare parts response combine to produce low cost of equipment ownership for our customers. Two customers, AMD and IBM accounted for 31% and 11%, respectively, of RTC's revenue in fiscal year 2001. In 2000, they were: AMD 17% and Astropower 15%. In 1999, 18% of revenue came from AMD. The Company does not experience a seasonal demand for its product. Rather the demand for RTC furnaces tends to follow the demand for new manufacturing equipment in the economy. BACKLOG We regard as backlog all signed purchase orders received from customers for delivery at specified dates. At September 30, 2001, the backlog was $808,484 vs. $3,203,427 in 2000, and $595,401 in 1999. This backlog of orders will be completed over a three to five month period. There can be no assurance that backlog will be replicated or increased or translated into higher revenues in the future. The success of our business depends on a multitude of factors that are beyond of our control. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT Research and Development expenses are charged to specific product enhancement activities and new product development. Research and Development expenses were $260,330, $230,599, and $282,766 in fiscal 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively, which represents primarily the development for new products, which we hope will provide significant value to future years income. It is more ideal, theoretically, to have new products developed over a longer period of time. However, the opportunities of the market place dictate concentration on increased product development at this time. New products include equipment for the 300mm wafer fabrication, the photovoltaic industry, research laboratories and 1300(Degree)C processing temperatures. COMPETITION We confront competition from two primary domestic companies: BTU International, and Sierra-Therm. There are numerous other competitors both domestically and internationally. We believe that we are one of the principal manufacturers of conveyorized, controlled atmosphere, variable speed, high temperature infrared furnaces used in the manufacture of precision, microelectronic circuitry for the semiconductor, solar cell, hybrid micro circuits and general microelectronic industries. The competitive environment in the market for ovens and furnaces is based on superior technology, design and delivery and ultimate cost of ownership beyond initial purchase price. The Company believes that its higher temperature near infrared products are more technologically advanced than that of the conventional products of its competitors. The Company has patents issued and pending covering the basic technology involved in the principal markets. See "Patents" below. 4 MATERIAL We purchase raw materials, mechanical parts and electronic components. The Company manufactures most of its sheet metal and some mechanical and electronic components. Alternative sources of material exist for nearly all parts, components and materials. We have selected a single source supplier for much of our electronic componentry, due to high levels of quality and service. Should this favorable condition degenerate, an alternative supplier can be found but not without extra initial expenditures. PATENTS We own a number of current patents on its products issued from 1983 to 1997. RTC also has patents pending. The Company's patents are the result of its creative energies and innovative technology. RTC believes that it must continually work to maintain technological leadership for its customer base. We further believe that patents may provide creative and competitive hurdles to competition. However, it is primarily our attention to customer service with high quality products, produced in a timely manner, ultimately providing the customer with low cost of ownership that provide us our greatest competitive strength. TRADEMARKS We have registered trademark No. 1425668, "RTC radiant technology corporation", with the United Stated patent and Trademark Office on January 20, 1987 and trademark No. 1556707, "MEZZANINE", with the United States Patent and Trademark Office on September 19, 1989. Both trademarks are in force for twenty years. EMPLOYEES We employed 42 full-time individuals as of November 30, 2001. WARRANTY We warrant our ovens and furnaces against defects existing at the time of shipment for material and workmanship under normal use and service for a period of one year on parts and labor after shipment to an original user. Under this warranty, the Company will provide, F.O.B. Anaheim, repair or replacement, at its own cost, any heating elements, SCR control packages, printed circuit boards, components, and conveyor speed controls (including digital readouts) which, within the warranty period, are proved to the satisfaction of the Company to have been defective. GOVERNMENTAL REGULATIONS The operations of the Company are subject to various federal and state laws and regulations. Management believes the Company is in substantial compliance with all applicable laws and regulations. The cost of compliance has not been a significant burden to the Company. 5 ITEM 2.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL ------------------------------------------------- CONDITIONS AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS ------------------------------------ Cautionary Statement This 10-K Report contains statements relating to future results of the Company (including certain projections and business trends) that are "forward-looking statements" as defined in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933. Actual results may differ materially from those projected as a result of certain risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to economic and political changes in markets where the Company competes such as inflation rates, recession, and other external factors over which the Company has no control; domestic and foreign government spending, budgetary and trade policies; demand for and market acceptance of new and existing products; successful development of advanced technologies; and competitive product and pricing pressures as well as other risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to those detailed from time to time in the Company's Securities and Exchange Commission filings. 7 GENERAL We pioneered the design and application of near infrared high temperature furnaces with the semiconductor manufacturing and electronics assembly markets. RTC products are now principally used by manufacturers of semiconductor packaging, solar cells, flat panel displays, printed circuit boards, hybrid thick film and multichip modules. New and inventive uses of the product line for other applications continue to be discovered. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Revenues were $5.1 million, $4.7 million and $3.3 million in fiscal years 2001, 2000 and 1999 respectively, representing an increase of 7% from 2000 to 2001 and an increase of 42% from 1999 to 2000. The increase in fiscal year 2001 was primarily attributable to increased volume shipments as a result of increased sales orders from photovoltaic (solar cell) customers. The increase in fiscal year 2000 was primarily attributable to increased shipments as a result of increased sales orders. Cost of sales consists of costs related to the purchase of raw materials, assembled and subcontracted parts, services provided by third party suppliers, as well as costs arising from in house manufacturing support operations and the costs to run it. Cost of sales as a percentage of revenues was 75.4%, 65.4% and 68.5% for fiscal years 2001, 2000 and 1999 respectively. The increase in material, direct labor, temporary labor, and freight from 2000 to 2001 was attributable to inefficiencies caused by responding quickly to an 87% increase in sales in the first two quarters of the fiscal year compared to the prior year. RTC continues to use the latest technology available in an effort to reduce both cost of revenues (and the maintenance of optimal inventory levels) and operating expenses, and ultimately an increase overall company profits. Research and development expense expressed as a percentage of revenues was 7.2% , 8.7% and 8.5% in fiscal years 2001, 2000 and 1999 respectively. These reflect costs related to the design of new products, new product development and product enhancements for existing standard products. These costs are essential to the Company's long term future, a future that can change very quickly in the high technology field. Selling, general and administrative expenses represented 23.8%, 20.2% and 38.7% of total revenues in fiscal years 2001, 2000 and 1999 respectively. The increase in 2001 was attributed to increased marketing, administrative, computer support staff, and outside consultants to prepare the Company's infrastructure to support future sales growth. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Our consolidated cash decreased from $1,528,383 at September 30, 2000 to $1,118,630 at September 30, 2001. The decrease of $409,753 is attributable to the payment of a $500,000 note payable. Net cash provided by operating activities of $202,613 compared to cash from operating activities of $171,039 in the prior year. Management believes that the expected revenues from operations of RTC will be sufficient to provide adequate cash to fund anticipated working capital and other cash needs. There may be occasional periods when short-term borrowing will be utilized, although little of this type of activity is foreseen. ITEM 7A.

Revenue Recognition ------------------- The Company recognizes revenue from product sales upon shipment or upon completion when the customer requests the unit to be held at the facility for later shipment. Cash and Cash equivalents ------------------------- For purposes of the statement of cash flows, cash equivalents include time deposits, certificates of deposit and all highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less. Accounts Receivable ------------------- The allowance for doubtful accounts includes management's estimate of the amount expected to be lost on specific accounts and for losses on other unidentified accounts included in accounts receivable. In estimating the allowance component for unidentified losses, management relies on historical experience. The amounts the Company will ultimately realize could differ materially in the near term from the amounts assumed in arriving at the allowance for doubtful accounts in the accompanying financial statements. Inventories ----------- Inventories include material, direct labor and manufacturing overhead and are reported at the lower of cost (determined on the first-in-first-out method) or market. Allowances for slow moving and obsolete inventory are based on management's estimate of the amount considered obsolete based on specific review of inventory items. In estimating the allowance, management relies on its knowledge of the industry as well as its current inventory levels. 18 RADIANT TECHNOLOGY CORPORATION Notes to financial statements 1. Summary of significant accounting policies (continued) ----------------------------------------------------------- Equipment --------- Equipment is stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets or over the lesser of the term of the lease or the estimated useful life for leasehold improvements. Intangibles ----------- The cost of patents are being amortized using the straight line method over their estimated lives of five years. Amortization expense charged to operations in 2001, 2000 and 1999 was $11,939, $8,712, and $8,716, respectively. Research and Development ------------------------ Research and development is expensed as incurred. Research and development expenses were $260,330, $230,599, and $282,766 in fiscal 2001, 2000, and 1999, respectively. Software development costs -------------------------- The Company capitalizes internal software development costs in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 86. The capitalization of these costs begins when a product's technological feasibility has been established and ends when the product is available for general release to customers. The Company uses the working model approach to establish technological feasibility. Amortization is computed on an individual product group on the straight-line method over the estimated economic life of the product. Currently, the Company is using an estimated economic life of three years for all capitalized software costs. Amortization expense was $31,001, $77,213, and $106,550 for 2001, 2000, and 1999, respectively. Customer deposits ----------------- The Company often requires a deposit from customers before commencing work on a furnace. It is the Company's policy to record the deposit as a receivable with a corresponding deferred liability at the time the sales order is written. When the deposit is received, the receivable is relieved. Income taxes ------------ Deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each year-end based on enacted tax laws and statutory rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. The provision for income taxes represents the tax payable for the period and the change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities. 19 RADIANT TECHNOLOGY CORPORATION Notes to financial statements 1. Summary of significant accounting policies (continued) ----------------------------------------------------------- Earnings per common share ------------------------- Earnings per common share is computed by dividing reported earnings by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the respective periods. Common stock equivalents were excluded from the computation of earnings per share in 2001 and 1999 because the effect of including such equivalents in the computation would have been anti-dilutive. Fair value of financial instruments ----------------------------------- The fair value of financial instruments, consisting principally of short-term debt payable is based on interest rates available to the Company and comparison to quoted prices. The fair value of these financial instruments approximates carrying value. Stock based compensation ------------------------ The Company accounts for compensation costs related to employee stock options and other forms of employee stock-based compensation plans in accordance with the requirements of Accounting Principles Board Opinion 25 ("APB 25"). The Company adopted the provisions of pro forma disclosure requirements of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation in fiscal 1997. Options granted to non-employees are recognized at their estimated fair value at the date of grant. Use of estimates ---------------- The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates. Reclassifications ----------------- Certain items in the 2000 and 1999 financial statements have been reclassified to conform with the 2001 presentation. 2. Concentration of credit risk and significant customers ----------------------------------------------------------- The Company, from time to time, has cash deposits at financial institutions in amounts in excess of federally-insured limits. The Company believes that credit risk related to its cash deposits is limited due to the quality of the financial institutions. The Company's customers are located in several geographic markets, primarily in the United States, Middle East, Europe and Pacific Rim countries and are concentrated within three industries. To minimize the risk of loss, the Company routinely assesses the financial strength of its customers, and may require a substantial downpayment prior to commencing machine production. 20 RADIANT TECHNOLOGY CORPORATION Notes to financial statements 3. Accounts receivable (continued) ----------------------------------- Net accounts receivable by geographic markets are as follows:

Depreciation expense for 2001, 2000, and 1999 was $121,945, $184,401, and $186,295, respectively. 22 RADIANT TECHNOLOGY CORPORATION Notes to financial statements 6. Accrued expenses --------------------

7. Commitments and contingencies --------------------------------- Operating leases ---------------- In November 1996 the Company signed a five year lease on a building in Fullerton, California, expiring on February 28, 2002. The Company is negotiating the terms of an existing option to extend the lease. Base monthly rent is $11,395 plus common area charges of approximately $2,649 per month. The Company also leases office equipment under operating leases expiring in January, 2002. Minimum future lease payments under non-cancelable operating leases are: Year ending September 30, 2002 $ 71,660 ============ Rent expense for 2001, 2000 and 1999 was $146,112, $168,650, and $172,228, respectively. 8. Environmental Matters ------------------------- The Company, like others in similar businesses, is subject to federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations. Although Company environmental policies and practices are designed to ensure compliance with these laws and regulations, future developments and increasingly stringent regulation could require the Company to make unforeseen environmental expenditures. 23 RADIANT TECHNOLOGY CORPORATION Notes to financial statements 9. Stockholders' equity ------------------------ Preferred stock ---------------- At September 30, 2001 and 2000 there were 5,000,000 authorized shares of preferred stock, of which no shares were issued and outstanding. Common stock ------------ The Company has authorized 24,000,000 shares of no par value common stock. At September 30, 2001 and 2000, 2,081,678 and 1,906,678 shares were issued and outstanding, respectively. Employee stock options ---------------------- Incentive and non-statutory option plan --------------------------------------- The Company adopted an incentive and non-statutory stock option plan which provides for granting options to key employees and officers. Under the plan, options up to 1,000,000 shares may be granted at a price not less than the fair market value of such shares on the date of the grant, and the maximum term of each option may not exceed ten years. With respect to any participant who owns stock possessing more than 10% of the voting rights of the Company's outstanding capital stock, the exercise price of any stock option must not be less than 110% of the fair market value on the date of the grant and the maximum term may not exceed five years. On January 22, 1998, April 15, 1999, and January 2, 2001 the Board authorized options to purchase 70,000, 100,000, and 55,000 shares, respectively. These shares were granted at an exercise price that was at or above the market price on the date of the grant. The options vest on January 5, 2000, January 2, 2002, and January 2, 2003 and expire three years from the vesting date. As of September 30, 2001 314,666 of these options remained outstanding. Non-statutory director options ------------------------------ On September 30, 1996, the Company granted 20,000 non-statutory options to each of three outside board members. The options vested immediately and expire 50% at September 30, 2000 and 50% at September 30, 2001. The option price is $.48 per share, which was equal to the market price at the date of the grant. At September 30, 2001, none of these options remain outstanding. Lawrence McNamee ---------------- Mr. McNamee held options to acquire 346,666 shares at $.075 per share issued to him in lieu of salary in 1992; 175,000 of these options were exercised in 2001, resulting in options for 171,666 shares outstanding at September 30, 2001. These options have no expiration date. 24 RADIANT TECHNOLOGY CORPORATION Notes to financial statements 9. Stockholders' equity (continued) ------------------------------------ The following table summarizes the activities under the Plan and outside the Plan:

The following information applies to employee options outstanding at September 30, 2001:

25 RADIANT TECHNOLOGY CORPORATION Notes to financial statements 9. Stockholders' equity (continued) ------------------------------------- Stock options (continued) ------------------------- Had compensation cost for the plan been determined based on the fair value of the options at the grant dates consistent with the method of SFAS 123, the Company's net income/(loss) and earnings/(loss) per share would have been:

These pro forma amounts may not be representative of future disclosures because they do not take into effect pro forma compensation expense related to grants made before 1996. In addition, potential deferred tax benefits of approximately $12,500, $12,500, and $15,000 in 2001, 2000 and 1999 respectively, have not been reflected in the pro forma amounts due to the uncertainty of realizing any benefit.
