NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS Phoenix Technologies Ltd. (together with its subsidiaries, "Phoenix" or the "Company") is a global leader in system-enabling software solutions for PCs and connected digital devices. Its software provides compatibility, connectivity, security and manageability of the various components and technologies used in such devices. Phoenix provides these products primarily to platform and peripheral manufacturers (collectively, "OEMs") that range from large PC manufacturers to small system integrators. Phoenix also provides training, consulting, maintenance and engineering services to its customers. It markets and licenses its products and services primarily through a direct sales force, as well as through regional distributors and sales representatives. The Company has three business units (one of which, inSilicon Corporation ("inSilicon"), is a majority-owned subsidiary), each of which delivers leading products and professional services that enable connected computing. NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2000 and for the three months ended December 31, 2000 and 1999 have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2000 was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles. However, the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2000. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to summarize fairly the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. The operating results for the three months period ended December 31, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2001, or for any other future period. EARNINGS PER SHARE Basic earnings per share is computed using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted-average number of common and dilutive common-equivalent shares outstanding during the period. Dilutive common-equivalent shares primarily consist of employee stock options, computed using the treasury stock method. RECLASSIFICATIONS Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. Page 6 PHOENIX TECHNOLOGIES LTD. NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) (UNAUDITED) NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In the first quarter of fiscal year 2001, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities", as amended by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 138, (the Statements) which establish accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments and for hedging activities. The Statements require that an entity recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities on the balance sheet and measure those instruments at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative depends on the intended use of the derivative and the resulting designation. The Company does not hold any derivative financial instrument and does not engage in hedging activities. Accordingly, the adoption of the Statements does not have a material impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows. NOTE 3 PURCHASE COMBINATIONS In December 2000, inSilicon Corporation ("inSilicon"), a majority owned subsidiary of the Company acquired Xentec, Inc. and HD Lab, K.K. for a total purchase price of $12.6 million, paid in inSilicon common stock and cash. The condensed consolidated financial statements include the operating results of each business from the date of acquisition. Pro forma results of operations have not been presented because the effects of these acquisitions were not material on either an individual or an aggregate basis. NOTE 4.

STOCK REPURCHASE PROGRAM In fiscal 2000, the Board of Directors authorized a program to utilize approximately $30 million of the Company's cash to repurchase outstanding shares of its common stock over a 24-month period. Under this program, the Company repurchased approximately 1,011,000 shares during fiscal 2000 at a cost of $16.6 million. The Company has repurchased an additional 1,028,400 shares during the three months ended December 31, 2000 at a cost of $15.9 million. As of December 31, 2000, the fiscal 2000 repurchase program was completed and terminated. NOTE 8. SUBSEQUENT EVENT In February 2001, the Board of Directors authorized a program to repurchase up to $30 million of outstanding shares of common stock over a 12-month period. Page 9 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS This Report on Form 10-Q, including without limitation the Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21 (E) of the Securities Exchange Act 1934, as amended. These statements include, but are not limited to, statements concerning increases in research and development activities, future liquidity and financing requirements, expected price erosion, plans to make acquisitions, dispositions or strategic investments, expectation of increased sales to original equipment manufacturers, and plans to improve and enhance existing products and develop new products. These forward-looking statements of the Company are subject to risks and uncertainties. Some of the factors that could cause future results to materially differ from the recent results or those projected in the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, significant increases or decreases in demand for Phoenix's products, increased competition, lower prices and margins, failure to successfully develop and market new product and technologies, competitor introductions of superior products, continued industry consolidation, instability and currency fluctuations in international markets, product defects, failure to secure intellectual property rights, results of litigation, and failure to retain and recruit key employees. For a more detailed discussion of certain risks associated with the Company's business, see the "Business Risks" section of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2000.

Page 10 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS REVENUE The Company's products are generally designed into personal computer systems, information appliances and semiconductors. License fee and service revenue by segment for the three month periods ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, were as follows (dollars in thousands): % of Consolidated Amount Revenue --------------------------- ------------------------- Three months ended December 31: 2000 1999 % CHANGE 2000 1999 ------------- ------------- -------------- ------------ ----------- Platform Enabling $32,858 $27,114 21.2% 84.7% 83.8% inSilicon 5,055 5,257 -3.8% 13.1% 16.2% PhoenixNet 862 -- N/A 2.2% -- ------------- ------------- ------------ ----------- Total revenue $38,775 $32,371 19.8% 100% 100% ============= ============= ============ =========== The increase in Platform Enabling revenue in the first quarter of fiscal 2001 of 21.2% over the comparable period of fiscal 2000 was primarily due to increased sales of system enabling software used primarily in personal computers. inSilicon revenue, net of intercompany transactions, declined due largely to a decrease in non-recurring engineering work for a significant customer. PhoenixNet first generated revenues in the second quarter of fiscal 2000. Revenue by geographic region for the quarter ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, was as follows (dollars in thousands): % of Consolidated Amount Revenue --------------------------- ------------------------- Three months ended December 31: 2000 1999 % CHANGE 2000 1999 ------------- ------------- -------------- ------------ ----------- North America $10,381 $7,616 36.3% 26.8% 23.5% Asia 26,626 22,108 20.4% 68.7% 68.3% Europe 1,768 2,647 -33.2% 4.5% 8.2% ------------- ------------- ------------ ----------- Total revenue $38,775 $32,371 19.8% 100% 100% ============= ============= ============ =========== During the three months ended December 31, 2000, North American and Asian revenue increased while European revenue declined. This was due primarily to the outsourcing of system design and manufacturing to Asian personal computer and motherboard manufacturers, growth in Japanese personal computer shipments in the Platform enabling segment and a shift in revenue from the European market to the Asian market. One customer accounted for 20% of total revenue during the three-month period ended December 31, 2000. One customer accounted for more than 11% of revenue during the three-month period ended December 31, 1999. GROSS MARGIN Gross margin as a percentage of revenue for the three-month period ended December 31, 2000 increased to 88.7% from 82.0% in the comparable period of fiscal 2000. Included in the costs of revenue was $0.3 million of amortization of purchased technology arising from the acquisition of Sand Microelectronics, Inc. for both three-month periods ended December 31, 2000 and 1999. Also included in the costs of revenue in the quarter ended December 31, 1999 was $0.6 million of non-recurring Year 2000 ("Y2K") support cost. Gross margin as a percentage of revenue before the amortization of purchased technology and Y2K support costs was 89.6% and 84.8% for the three months ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The increase in gross margin was due primarily to shifts in license revenue mix. RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES Research and development expenses for the three-month period ended December 31, 2000 increased by $0.4 million over the prior year quarter, but as a percentage of revenue fell to 28.2% from Page 11 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS 32.4%. The percentage decrease was primarily due to improvement in product and resource management resulting in lower headcount and the relocation of research and development centers to Asia and Japan where costs are lower. SALES AND MARKETING EXPENSES Sales and marketing expenses for the three-month period ended December 31, 2000 increased by $2.8 million from the comparable period in fiscal 2000. As a percentage of revenue, sales and marketing expenses increased from 21.5% in the three-month period ended December 31, 1999 to 25.2% in the current quarter. The increase in sales and marketing expense was principally due to an increase in the size of the Company's direct sales force and related commissions and the expansion of our distribution channels to position the Company for growth in markets beyond the PC market. Management has made a conscious effort to increase sales and marketing efforts through the reallocation of resources. GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES General and administrative expenses for the three-month period ended December 31, 2000, increased by $0.8 million from the comparable period in fiscal 2000. As a percentage of revenue, general and administrative expenses decreased from 14.5% to 14.2% in the three-month period ended December 31, 2000 compared to the quarter ended December 31, 1999. The slight percentage decrease was due to efficiency improvement in infrastructure costs. AMORTIZATION OF GOODWILL AND ACQUIRED INTANGIBLE ASSETS Amortization of goodwill and acquired intangible assets included in operating expense was $0.6 million for both the first quarters of fiscal 2001 and 2000. Amortization of goodwill and acquired intangible asset relates primarily to the acquisition of Sand Microelectronics, Inc. in September 1998. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION The stock-based compensation charges in both quarters presented were mostly due to the granting of options to purchase inSilicon stock at exercise prices less than the fair market value of inSilicon common stock on the grant date. INTEREST AND OTHER INCOME, NET Interest and other income, net, for the three month period ended December 31, 2000 increased 10.3% from the comparable period in fiscal 2000 primarily due to improved interest income related to higher cash balances as a result of the proceeds inSilicon received from the initial public offering of inSilicon stock in the second quarter of fiscal 2000, offset by foreign currency exchange losses. Page 12 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES The Company recorded an income tax provision of $2.4 million for three-month period ended December 31, 2000, as compared to $1.3 million in the comparable period in fiscal 2000. The provisions for income taxes reflect effective tax rates of 30.9% and 32.0%, respectively. The decrease in the effective tax rate is immaterial. For federal income tax purposes, the Company does not file a consolidated return with inSilicon as the Company owns less than 80% of the voting stock issued and outstanding as of December 31, 2000. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES At December 31, 2000, the Company' principal source of liquidity consisted of cash and cash equivalents, and short-term investments totaling $94 million. Cash and cash equivalents of $58.9 million as of December 31, 2000 included $12.4 million restricted and owned by inSilicon. The primary sources of cash during the first three months of fiscal 2001 were $6.0 million from operating activities, net sales of short-term investments of $17.1 million and proceeds from issuance of stock under various stock plans of $3.6 million. The primary uses of cash during the first three months of fiscal 2001 were $15.9 million for the repurchase of common stock, $2.9 million for the purchase of property, equipment and computer software and $2.9 million for the acquisition of Xentec, Inc. The Company believes that current cash, short-term investment balances and cash flow from operations will be sufficient to meet its operating and capital requirements on a short-term and long-term basis.
