NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2003
(unaudited)

1. Description of the Company and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The Company

Rainbow Technologies, Inc. (the Company) develops, manufactures, programs and markets software and internet security products which prevent the unauthorized use of intellectual property, including software programs, provides privacy and security for network communications and develops and manufactures secure communication products for high assurance satellite communications and voice and data links.

Basis of Consolidation

The accompanying financial statements consolidate the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

In the opinion of the Company’s management, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position at September 30, 2003 and results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include certain footnotes and financial information normally presented annually under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and, therefore, should be read in conjunction with the Company’s December 31, 2002 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year.

The Company has subsidiaries in the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Netherlands, India, Australia, China, Taiwan, Japan, Mexico, Brazil, Hong Kong and Canada. Excluding Hong Kong and Canada, the Company utilizes the currencies of the countries where its foreign subsidiaries operate as the functional currency. Balance sheet accounts denominated in foreign currencies are translated at exchange rates as of the date of the balance sheet and income statement accounts are translated at average exchange rates for the period. Translation gains and losses are accumulated as a separate component of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income within Stockholders’ Equity. The Company has adopted local currencies as the functional currencies for these subsidiaries because their principal economic activities are most closely tied to the respective local currencies.

For its Hong Kong and Canada subsidiaries, the Company utilizes the U.S. dollar as the functional currency as the majority of its transactions are in U.S. dollars. Accordingly, monetary assets and liabilities are remeasured into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date. Revenue, expenses, gains and losses are remeasured at the average exchange rate for the period, and non-monetary assets and liabilities are remeasured at historical rates. The resultant remeasurement gains or losses are recognized in the consolidated statements of income.

Basis of Presentation

In the second quarter of 2002, the Company announced that its Spectria segment had experienced rapidly deteriorating business prospects due to a severe decline in IT services infrastructure spending. Consequently, the Company discontinued Spectria and closed its facility in Long Beach, California. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” Spectria’s results of operations are included in the loss from discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002 (see Note 14). Unless otherwise indicated, the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements relate to continuing operations.

Certain amounts previously reported have been reclassified to conform with the 2003 presentation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the accompanying financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates made in preparing these financial statements include the allowance for doubtful accounts, the reserve for excess and obsolete inventory, goodwill realizability, accrued warranty costs, restructuring costs, the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets and total estimated contract costs associated with billed and unbilled contract revenue.

Marketable Securities

All investment securities are considered to be either trading or available-for-sale and are carried at fair value. Management determines the classification of its investments in marketable securities at the time of purchase and re-evaluates its appropriateness at each balance sheet date. Securities that are bought and held principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term are classified as trading securities and carried at fair value with the unrealized gains and losses included in earnings. Available-for-sale securities are carried at fair value, with the unrealized gains and losses, net of tax, reported as a separate component of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income within Stockholders’ Equity.

Included in Marketable Securities at September 30, 2003 and December 31, 2002 were trading securities of $42,000 and $25,000, respectively, and available-for-sale securities of $0.2 million and $0.3 million, respectively.

Stock Option Plans

The Company follows the disclosure-only provisions of SFAS 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” as amended, and, accordingly, accounts for its stock-based compensation plans using the intrinsic value method under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” and related interpretations.

For purposes of pro forma disclosures, the following table illustrates the effect on net income (loss) and income (loss) per share, had compensation expense for the employee stock-based plans been recorded based on the fair value method under SFAS 123:

	As adjusted	$	0.05		$	0.01		$	0.04		$	(1.80	)

Accrued Litigation Settlement

The Company applies the provisions of Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) 00-19, “Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company’s Own Stock” to its accrued litigation settlement balance (see Note 12) included in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet. As a result, increases or decreases in the fair value of the Company’s common stock will result in an increase or a decrease in the accrued litigation settlement balance with a corresponding impact to non-operating income or expense. For the quarter ended September 30, 2003, the Company recorded non-operating expense of $333,000 to reflect the increase in the Company’s common stock fair value.

2. Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding for the period, which includes the additional dilution related to conversion of stock options as computed under the treasury stock method.

The following table presents reconciliation of the denominator for the basic EPS computation to the denominator of the diluted EPS computation:

(in thousands)


	Three Months Ended				Nine Months Ended

	September 30, 2003		September 30, 2002		September 30, 2003		September 30, 2002

Weighted average shares used for basic EPS computation		26,808		26,326		26,699		26,479
Effect of dilutive stock options		1,061		206		779		—

Weighted average shares used for the diluted EPS computation		27,869		26,532		27,478		26,479

For the nine months ended September 30, 2002, the Company incurred losses and, therefore, all stock options were anti-dilutive and not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share. The antidilutive shares excluded from the dilutive computation for the three months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002 were 1,062,000 and 3,753,000, respectively.

3. Government contracts

The Company is both a prime contractor and subcontractor under fixed-price and cost reimbursement contracts with the U.S. Government (Government). At the commencement of each contract or contract modification, the Company submits pricing proposals to the Government to establish indirect cost rates applicable to such contracts. These rates, after audit and approval by the Government, are used to settle costs on contracts completed during the previous year.

To facilitate interim billings during the performance of its contracts, the Company establishes provisional billing rates, which are used in recognizing contract revenue and contract accounts receivable. The provisional billing rates are adjusted to actual at year-end and are subject to adjustment after Government audit.

4. Acquisitions

On September 5, 2003, the Company acquired all of the outstanding shares of Chrysalis-ITS, Inc. (“Chrysalis”) for a total purchase price of $20.1 million, which consisted of $20.0 million in cash and $0.1 million in direct and incremental costs for the acquisition. The results of operations of Chrysalis have been included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements since the date of acquisition. Chrysalis, based in Ottawa, Canada, is a leading vendor of hardware security modules, servers and appliances to secure and accelerate applications including electronic financial transactions, SSL-based Web applications, smart card issuance, online credit card validation, electronic document security, digital identity and XML transactions. The Company believes that its product lines and Chrysalis’, while focused on different security needs, will make complex security easy to implement, deploy and use. The Chrysalis products are focused on the PKI and SSL-based web application markets and represent a complementary fit with the Company’s products.

In accordance with SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations” (SFAS 141), this acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. The total purchase price has been allocated to the acquired tangible and intangible assets, and liabilities, based on their estimated fair values with the balance allocated to goodwill. Accordingly, the Company recorded goodwill of $6.3 million, which represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The goodwill was assigned to the eSecurity segment.

The amount allocated to the intangible assets was determined using discounted cash flows for the contract and maintenance relationships, an average of the resultant value from applying the cost and income approach for the developed technology, and the relief from royalty method for the acquired tradename/trademark. The estimated useful lives for each of the acquired intangible assets is provided below:


Developed technology	7 years
Maintenance relationships	5 years
Tradename/trademark	5 years
Existing maintenance contracts	6 months

On April 28, 2003, the Company acquired all products, manufacturing and distribution facilities of Proteq Ltda., Sao Paulo (“Proteq”) for an estimated purchase price of $0.9 million in cash. Proteq, based in Sao Paulo, Brazil, is a leading provider of software security tokens in Brazil and the southern cone of South America. This acquisition expands the Company’s presence in Latin America and with Proteq’s manufacturing facility. In connection with this acquisition, the Company recorded goodwill of $0.7 million that was assigned to the Company’s eSecurity segment. The results of operations of Proteq are included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. Pro forma results of operations have not been presented for this acquisition because the effects of this acquisition were not material to the Company’s results.

5. Inventories

Inventoried costs relating to long-term contracts are stated at actual production costs, including pro-rata allocations of factory overhead and general and administrative costs incurred-to-date, reduced by amounts identified with revenue recognized on units delivered. The costs attributed to units delivered under such long-term contracts are based on the estimated average cost of all units expected to be produced.

Inventories, other than inventoried costs relating to long-term contracts, are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out basis) or market.

Inventories consist of the following:

6. Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price over the estimated fair value of assets acquired. Goodwill is tested for impairment annually and whenever events or circumstances occur which might indicate that goodwill is impaired. The first step of the impairment test, used to identify potential impairment, compares the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying value, including goodwill. If the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying value, goodwill of the reporting unit is considered not impaired. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the second step of the goodwill impairment test shall be performed to measure the

amount of impairment loss. The second step of goodwill impairment test, used to measure the amount of impairment loss, compares the implied fair value of the reporting unit goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of that goodwill, an impairment loss will be recognized in an amount equal to that excess. The Company has completed its annual impairment testing during the quarter ended September 30, 2003 and no changes to the carrying value of goodwill were made in accordance with SFAS 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.” The Company intends to perform its annual goodwill impairment test in subsequent years during the third quarter of each respective year.

In September 2003, the Company acquired Chrysalis, a leading vendor of hardware security modules, servers and appliances to secure and accelerate applications including electronic financial transactions, SSL-based Web applications, smart card issuance, online credit card validation, electronic document security, digital identity and XML transactions. The Chrysalis business is reported as part of the eSecurity segment.

7. Intangible assets

Intangible assets are recorded at estimated fair values and amortized using the straight-line method. It includes developed technology, trademark and customer-related intangible assets, which were mainly acquired through the acquisition of Chrysalis and IAS investment (see Notes 4 and 11). Total amortization expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2003 for intangible assets subject to amortization, were $0.2 million and $1.0 million, respectively. Total amortization expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002 for intangible assets subject to amortization, were $0.8 million and $1.5 million, respectively.

The following table presents details of the Company’s intangible assets that are subject to amortization:

At September 30, 2003, the amortization of the remaining balance of intangible assets of $12.3 million will be $0.9 million for the remainder of 2003. The amortization for each of the fiscal years 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008 and thereafter will be $2.9 million, $1.6 million, $1.6 million, $1.5 million, $1.5 million and $2.3 million, respectively.

SFAS 86, “Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed,” requires capitalization of certain software development costs subsequent to the establishment of technological feasibility. Based upon the Company’s product development process, technological feasibility is established upon completion of a working model. Amortization of capitalized software development costs commences when the products are available for general release to customers and are determined using the straight-line method over the expected useful lives of the respective products. Software development costs are written-off when projects are abandoned or when the estimated cash flows from a product are not expected to be sufficient to recover the capitalized software development costs. Total amortization expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2003 for software development costs were $0.8 million and $1.7 million, respectively. Total amortization expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002 for software development costs were $0.2 million and $1.8 million, respectively.

The following table presents details of the Company’s software development costs that are subject to amortization:

(in thousands)


	September 30, 2003							December 31, 2002

			Accumulated							Accumulated
	Gross		Amortization			Net		Gross		Amortization			Net

Software development costs	$	7,911	$	(4,828	)	$	3,083	$	11,931	$	(8,156	)	$	3,775

At September 30, 2003, the amortization of the remaining balance of software development costs of $3.1 million will be $0.4 million for the remainder of 2003. The amortization for each of the fiscal years 2004, 2005 and 2006 will be $1.7 million, $0.5 million and $0.1 million, respectively. At September 30, 2003, the Company had $0.4 million of unamortized software development costs for which amortization had not commenced. Amortization of software development costs commences when the products are available for general release to customers.

8. Income taxes

The effective tax rates from continuing operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2003 were 20% and 19%, respectively. The effective tax rate for 2003 was different from the statutory rate of 35% primarily due to the release of the Company’s federal valuation allowance which reduced income tax expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2003. During 2002, the Company recorded income tax expense from continuing operations of $13.7 million, which included a valuation allowance of $11.6 million in accordance with SFAS 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.”

financial performance. As a result of recent cumulative losses and the full utilization of the Company’s loss carryback potential, the Company had concluded that a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets at December 31, 2002 was appropriate.

9. Warranty

The Company warrants its products for periods of ninety days to two years. The standard warranties require the Company to repair or replace defective products returned at no cost to the customer. The Company records an estimate for warranty related costs based on amounts required to cover warranty expense on products sold and actual historical return rates at the time revenue is recognized. While warranty costs have historically been within management’s expectations and the provisions established, the Company cannot guarantee that it will continue to experience the same warranty return rates as in the past. A significant increase in product return rates could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s operating results for the period in which such returns materialize. During the third quarter ended September 30, 2003, the Company recorded $0.7 million change in estimate for its warranty accrual.

The following details the Company’s warranty reserve:

There were no intercompany revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2003 while intercompany revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002 were $1,000 and $18,000, respectively. Intercompany revenues are generated by the Secure Communications segment.

11. Recent accounting pronouncements

In May 2003, the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) finalized revisions to EITF 00-21, “Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables,” on which it had reached a consensus in November 2002. EITF 00-21 addresses certain aspects of the accounting for arrangements that involve the delivery or performance of multiple products, services and/or rights to use assets. Under EITF 00-21, revenue arrangements with multiple deliverables should be divided into separate units of accounting if the deliverables meet certain criteria, including whether the fair value of the delivered items can be determined and whether there is evidence of fair value of the undelivered items. In addition, the consideration should be allocated among the separate units of accounting based on their fair values, and the applicable revenue recognition criteria should be considered separately for each

RAINBOW TECHNOLOGIES, INC.

(unaudited)

of the separate units of accounting. EITF 00-21 is effective for revenue arrangements entered into in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2003. The adoption of EITF 00-21 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial condition or results of operations.

In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, “Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity” (SFAS 150). This statement establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. SFAS 150 requires that certain financial instruments, which under previous guidance were accounted for as equity, must now be accounted for as liabilities (or an asset in some circumstances). The financial instruments affected include mandatorily redeemable stock, certain financial instruments that require or may require the issuer to buy back some of its shares in exchange for cash or other assets and certain obligations that can be settled with shares of stock. SFAS 150 is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective at the beginning of the first interim period after June 15, 2003. The adoption of SFAS 150 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial condition or results of operations.

In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” (FIN 46). FIN 46 requires the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity (VIE) to consolidate the entity and also requires majority and significant variable interest investors to provide certain disclosures. A VIE is an entity in which the equity investors do not have a controlling interest, equity investors participate in losses or residual interests of the entity on a basis that differs from its ownership interest, or the equity investment at risk is insufficient to finance the entity’s activities without receiving additional subordinated financial support from the other parties. For arrangements entered into with VIEs created prior to January 31, 2003, the provisions of FIN 46 are required to be adopted at the beginning of the first interim or annual period beginning after December 15, 2003. For all arrangements entered into with new VIEs created after January 31, 2003, the provisions of FIN 46 were effective July 1, 2003. Pursuant to the requirements of this interpretation, the Company consolidated the following entity:

On August 1, 2003, the Company’s Secure Communications business and Trusted Ware Systems, Inc. formed a Limited Liability Corporation called IAS, L.L.C. The IAS, L.L.C. charter was created to develop emerging trusted computing technologies and products for the US Government. Since inception, the Company made cash contribution of $0.3 million for a 30% interest. Profits and losses are allocated to both companies based upon each company’s interest. At September 30, 2003, the carrying value of $0.8 million is included in intangible assets, on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet of the Company.

12. Legal proceedings

In July 1998, a patent infringement claim was filed against the Company. The complaint sought unspecified monetary damages. The Company filed a motion for summary judgment of non-infringement that was decided by the District Court in favor of the Company in December 2000. That decision was appealed and on April 3, 2002, the United States Court of Appeals issued an opinion that modified the trial court’s construction of the patent claims in certain respects, revised the summary judgment and remanded the case to the trial court for further proceedings. On May 1, 2003, after remand, the District Court granted another motion for summary judgment of non-infringement brought by the Company, thereby removing half of the products at issue from litigation and granted a motion for summary judgment re: damages, thereby limiting any recovery by the plaintiff to a reasonable royalty. The patent-in-suit expired in June 30, 2003, thereby removing the threat of any injunction against the Company from the litigation. On July 15, 2003, pursuant to court order, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement. The settlement expense of $3.6 million was included in the results of operations during the quarter ended June 30, 2003 (See Note 1).

The Company is also involved in other legal proceedings and claims arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company believes that the outcome of all current litigation will not have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, cash flows or results of operations.

13. Restructuring

In the third quarter of 2001, the Company restructured and consolidated its Digital Rights Management and iVEA operations (eSecurity segment), resulting in a net staff reduction of 97 employees across all employee groups, primarily in the U.S. and recorded restructuring charges of $5.8 million. In the third quarter of 2003, the Company recorded additional liability of $0.2 million, as a result of revised estimates due to the amendment to a lease agreement of one of its Irvine facilities.

The following table summarizes the Company’s restructuring costs and activities in the restructuring reserves:

15. Subsequent Events

On October 22, 2003, the Company and SafeNet, Inc. (“SafeNet”), issued a joint press release announcing the execution of an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the “Merger Agreement”). In accordance with the Merger Agreement, a wholly-owned subsidiary of SafeNet will merge with and into the Company and each issued and outstanding share of the Company’s common stock will be exchanged for 0.374 shares of SafeNet common stock, or approximately 11.1 million shares on a fully diluted basis, which will represent approximately 43% of the outstanding stock of the combined company after closing of the transaction. The consummation of the merger is subject to stockholders approval by both companies and appropriate regulatory review and approval.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

The Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the Company intends that certain matters discussed in this report are “forward-looking statements” intended to qualify for the safe harbor from liability established by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements can generally be identified by the context of the statement which may include words such as the Company “believes,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “forecasts,” “estimates,” or other words of similar meaning and context. Similarly, statements that describe future plans, objectives, outlooks, targets, models or goals are also deemed forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those forecasted or anticipated as of the date of this report. Certain of such risks and uncertainties are described in close proximity to such statements and elsewhere in this report, including Item 2, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” Stakeholders, potential investors and other readers are urged to consider these factors in evaluating the forward-looking statements and are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements or construe such statements to be a representation by the Company that the objectives or plans of the Company will be achieved. The forward-looking statements included in this report are made only as of the date of this report, and the Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update such forward-looking statements to reflect subsequent events or circumstances.

The following is management’s discussion and analysis of certain significant factors, which have affected the consolidated results of operations, and the consolidated financial position of the Company during the periods included in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the related condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

The Company’s financial statements are based on the selection and application of significant accounting policies, which require management to make significant estimates and assumptions. The Company believes that the following are some of the more critical judgment areas in the application of its accounting policies that currently affect its consolidated financial condition and results of operations.

Revenue Recognition

eSecurity recognizes revenues from product sales when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the fee is fixed and determinable, and collectibility is probable. Revenues from maintenance contracts are recognized ratably over the period the customer support services are provided, which is generally one year. Secure Communications recognizes revenue and profit as work progresses on long-term contracts using the percentage-of-completion method, which relies on estimates of total expected contract revenue and costs. Catalog product revenues and revenues under certain fixed-price contracts calling for delivery of a specified number of units are recognized as deliveries are made. Revenues under cost-reimbursement contracts are recognized as costs are incurred and include estimated earned fees in the proportion that costs incurred to date bear to total estimated costs. Certain contracts are awarded on a fixed-price incentive fee basis. Incentive fees on such contracts are considered when estimating revenues and profit rates and are recognized when the amounts can reasonably be determined. The costs attributed to units delivered under fixed-price contracts are based on the estimated average cost per unit at contract completion. Profits expected to be realized on long-term contracts are based on total revenues and estimated costs at completion. Revisions to contract profits are recorded in the accounting period in which the revisions are known. Estimated losses on contracts are recorded when identified. For research and development and other cost-plus-fee type contracts, the Company recognizes contract earnings using the percentage-of-completion method. The estimated contract revenues are recognized based on percentage-of-completion as determined by the cost-to-cost basis whereby revenues are recognized as contract costs are incurred.

Accounts Receivable

The Company is required to estimate the collectibility of its trade receivables and unbilled costs and fees. A considerable amount of judgment is required in assessing the ultimate realization of these receivables including the current credit-worthiness of each customer. The Company has recorded charges in required reserves in prior periods and it is possible that changes in required reserves may continue to occur in the future depending on future market conditions.

Inventory

The Company is required to state its inventories at the lower of cost or market. In assessing the ultimate realization of inventories, the Company is required to exercise judgment in its assessment of future demand requirements and compare that with the current or committed inventory levels. The Company has recorded charges for required reserves in prior periods and it is possible that changes in required inventory reserves may continue to occur in the future due to market conditions.

Deferred Taxes

The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce its deferred tax assets to the amount that it believes is more likely than not to be realized. In assessing the need for a valuation allowance, the Company considers all positive and negative evidence, including reversals of existing deferred tax liabilities, estimated future taxable income, prudent and feasible tax planning strategies, and recent financial performance. As a result of recent cumulative losses and the full utilization of the Company’s loss carryback potential, the Company had concluded that a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets at December 31, 2002 was appropriate. For the quarter ended March 31, 2003, the Company realized certain deferred tax assets which resulted in a reduction in the Company’s valuation allowance and the effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2003.

Capitalized Software Development Costs

The Company’s policy on capitalized software costs determines the timing of recognition of certain development costs. In addition, this policy determines whether the cost is classified as development expense or cost of license fees. Management is required to use professional judgment in determining whether development costs meet the criteria for immediate expense or capitalization. SFAS 86, “Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed,” requires capitalization of certain software development costs subsequent to the establishment of technological feasibility. Based upon the Company’s product development process, technological feasibility is established upon completion of a working model. Amortization of capitalized software development costs commences when the products are available for general release to customers and is determined using the straight-line method over the expected useful lives of the respective products. Software development costs are written-off when projects are abandoned or when the estimated cash flows from a product are not expected to be sufficient to recover the capitalized software development costs.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In May 2003, the EITF of the FASB finalized revisions to EITF 00-21, “Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables,” on which it had reached a consensus in November 2002. EITF 00-21 addresses certain aspects of the accounting for arrangements that involve the delivery or performance of multiple products, services and/or rights to use assets. Under EITF 00-21, revenue arrangements with multiple deliverables should be divided into separate units of accounting if the deliverables meet certain criteria, including whether the fair value of the delivered items can be determined and whether there is evidence of fair value of the undelivered items. In addition, the consideration should be allocated among the separate units of accounting based on their fair values, and the applicable revenue recognition criteria should be considered separately for each of the separate units of accounting. EITF 00-21 is effective for revenue arrangements entered into in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2003. The adoption of EITF 00-21 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial condition or results of operations.

REVENUES

On a consolidated basis, revenues from continuing operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2003 increased by 17% to $35.4 million and 11% to $102.6 million, respectively, as compared to the same periods in the prior year. Revenues from both segments increased for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2003 as compared to the same periods in 2002. Revenues from international markets for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2003 increased 20% to $6.8 million and 19% to $20.6 million, respectively, as compared to the same periods in the prior year. The increase in revenues from international markets for the three months ended September 30, 2003 was primarily due to additional revenues from the Chrysalis acquisition, which was completed during the third quarter of 2003, and increase in revenues from Europe which was partially offset by a decrease in revenues from Asia Pacific. The increase in revenues from Europe was due to improved sales of the iKey product and stronger conversion rates of euros to the US dollar experienced during the current year while the decrease in revenues from Asia Pacific was primarily due to a slowdown in the economy of Asia, as affected by the SARS disease, which had moderately affected revenues from the Company’s Hong Kong operations. Overall, revenues from international markets for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 increased for both Europe and Asia Pacific, as compared to the same period in the prior year. Revenues from domestic markets for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2003 also increased by 16% to $28.6 million and 9% to $82.0 million, respectively, as compared to the same periods in the prior year. The increase in domestic revenues was primarily due to strong increase in revenues in the Secure Communications segment slightly offset by a decrease in revenues in eSecurity North America. The decrease in revenues in eSecurity North America was primarily due to the decline in OEM markets for Cryptoswift SSL acceleration devices and the ongoing softness in IT spending.

eSecurity revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2003 increased by 10% to $12.5 million and increased by 6% to $37.8 million, respectively, when compared to the same periods in 2002. The increase in revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2003 was primarily due to improved sales for software protection and authentication products particularly the iKey product and revenues from Luna products sold by Chrysalis, which was acquired by the Company in September 2003. This increase was partially offset by the decline in OEM markets for Cryptoswift SSL acceleration devices.

Secure Communications revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2003 increased 21% to $22.9 million and 14% to $64.8 million, respectively, when compared to the same periods in 2002. The increase in revenues was primarily attributable to continued strong demand for voice and data security solutions and link encryption products.

GROSS PROFIT

Gross profit from eSecurity products for the three months ended September 30, 2003 increased to 77% of revenues compared to 65% of revenues for the corresponding period in 2002. Gross profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 increased to 68% of revenues compared to 18% of revenues for the corresponding period in 2002. The increase in gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2003 was primarily due to a $0.7 million change in estimate for warranty accruals. Cost of revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2002 included a $10.2 million increase in the reserve for excess and obsolete products and a $5.4 million write-off of capitalized and developed software. Excluding these charges recorded in the current and prior year, gross profit increased which was primarily attributable to increased efficiencies in manufacturing operations and lower overhead costs.

Gross profit from Secure Communications for the three months ended September 30, 2003 decreased to 22% of revenues as compared to 27% of revenues for the corresponding period in 2002. Gross profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 increased to 24% of revenues compared to 22% of revenues for the corresponding period in 2002. The decrease in gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2003 was primarily due to an increase in investments in new products while the increase in gross profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 was primarily due to a change in product mix, as higher margin products were sold during the current year.

SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE

Selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel-related expenses, sales commissions, promotional activities, and professional fees. Selling, general and administrative expenses from continuing operations for the three months ended September 30, 2003 were $8.6 million or 24% of revenues as compared to $7.8 million or 26% of revenues for the corresponding period in 2002. Selling, general and administrative expenses from continuing operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 were $24.5 million or 24% of revenues as compared to $23.9 million or 26% of revenues for the corresponding period in 2002. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily attributable to higher legal and other professional fees and the inclusion of Chrysalis’ selling, general and administrative expenses.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

Research and development expenses consist primarily of engineering salaries and other personnel-related expenses, costs related to engineering development tools, and subcontracting costs. Research and development expenses from continuing operations for the three months ended September 30, 2003 were $2.0 million or 6% of revenues, as compared with research and development expenses of $2.4 million or 8% of revenues for the corresponding period in 2002. Research and development expenses from continuing operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 were $6.0 million or 6% of revenues, as compared with research and development expenses of $7.1 million or 8% of revenues for the corresponding period in 2002. The decrease in research and development expenses was primarily due to a decrease in engineering salaries as a result of greater use of research and development personnel in India and China.

LITIGATION SETTLEMENT

Subsequent to June 30, 2003, pursuant to court order, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement relating to a litigation matter for which it had been incurring substantial legal expenses. The settlement of $3.6 million was included in the results of operations for the quarter ended June 30, 2003 (see Note 12 to Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements).

INCOME (LOSS) ON LONG-TERM INVESTMENTS AND MARKETABLE SECURITIES

The Company periodically reviews investments in early stage companies that are accounted for on the cost basis for other-than-temporary declines in fair value and writes down investments to their fair value when an other-than-temporary decline has occurred based on the specific identification method. The Company generally believes an other-than-temporary decline has occurred when the fair value of the investment is below the carrying value for two consecutive quarters, absent evidence to the contrary. During the nine months ended September 30, 2003, it was determined by the Company that certain of its investments had incurred an other-than-temporary decline in fair value which resulted in realized losses of $1.2 million that were recognized in the statement of income.

CHANGE IN VALUE FOR COMMON STOCK TO BE ISSUED

In the third quarter of 2003, in accordance with EITF 00-19, the Company revalued its obligation to issue common stock to fair market value. Accordingly, the Company recorded a non-cash charge of $0.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2003.

OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE), NET

Other income (expense) consists primarily of transaction gains and losses resulting from intercompany balances between foreign subsidiaries and the U.S. subsidiary.

PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES

The effective tax rates from continuing operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2003 were 20% and 19%, respectively. The reduction in the Company’s effective tax rate was primarily due to the release of the Company’s federal valuation allowance, which resulted in a reduction of income tax expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2003. During 2002, the Company recorded income tax expense from continuing operations of $13.7 million, which included a valuation allowance of $11.6 million in accordance with SFAS 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.”

RESULTS OF DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

Discontinued operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2003 reported operating results and net losses of $0.2 million and $0.3 million, respectively. The Company recorded additional expense during the third quarter of 2003, as a result of its Long Beach facility lease buyout. Operating results and net losses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2002 were $0.6 million and $17.3 million, respectively, which included $12.8 million of write-off of goodwill and $2.4 million provision for impairment of assets.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company’s principal sources of operating funds have been from operations and proceeds from exercises of the Company’s common stock options. Net cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002 were $25.2 million and $14.7 million, respectively. Operating activities in 2003 included a $1.2 million loss on long-term investments and marketable securities, $3.6 million litigation settlement and a decrease in income taxes of $6.2 million primarily due to a tax refund of $5.4 million collected during the third quarter. Operating activities in 2002 included a decrease in accounts receivable of $8.8 million, $10.2 million increase in the provision for excess and obsolete inventory, $5.4 million write-off of capitalized and developed software, $15.2 million write-off of goodwill and provisions for impairment of assets relating to discontinued operations and $16.3 million in deferred income taxes primarily due to the Company’s valuation allowance for deferred tax assets.

Net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002 were $19.1 million and $1.9 million, respectively. Investing activities in 2003 included $15.8 million of net cash paid for acquisition of Chrysalis-ITS in Canada and $0.7 million of net cash paid for acquisition of Proteq, Ltda in Brazil.

Net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2003 and 2002 were $0.9 million and $0.2 million, respectively. Financing activities in 2003 primarily included $3.8 million proceeds from exercises of common stock options and $2.8 million in retirement of common stock. Financing activities in 2002 included $3.1 million proceeds from exercises of common stock options and $2.4 million in repurchase of the Company’s common stock.

The Company intends to use its capital resources to expand its product lines and for possible acquisitions of additional products and technologies. The Company has no significant capital commitments or requirements at this time.

At September 30, 2003, the Company’s subsidiaries in the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Netherlands, Switzerland and Japan carry approximately $1.8 million, $0.8 million, $5.7 million, $4.0 million, $3.8 million and $1.1 million, respectively, in interest earning deposits which may result in foreign exchange gains or losses due to the fact that the functional currency in those subsidiaries is not the U.S. dollar. The Company also has $6.8 million of interest earning deposits in Canada which is subject to foreign currency gains or losses, as it is denominated in Canadian dollars.

The Company had $58.9 million of cash and cash equivalents at September 30, 2003. The Company believes that its current working capital of $56.9 million and anticipated working capital to be generated by future operations will be sufficient to support the Company’s working capital requirements for at least the next twelve months and for the foreseeable future. The foregoing is a forward-looking statement.
