CIRRUS LOGIC, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)



1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared by
Cirrus Logic, Inc. ("we," "our," "us," the "Company") pursuant to the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and
footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In our
opinion, the financial statements reflect all adjustments, including normal
recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial
position, operating results and cash flows for those periods presented. These
unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the consolidated financial statements, and notes thereto for
the year ended March 31, 2001, included in our 2001 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
The results of operations for the interim period presented are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire year.

Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2001 financial statements
to conform to the 2002 presentation. Such reclassifications had no effect on the
results of operations or stockholders' equity.

2. ACCOUNTING CHANGES AND EFFECT OF RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

Accounting Changes. We adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
(SFAS) No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,"
effective April 1, 2001. Adoption of SFAS No. 133 did not have a material impact
on our results of operations or financial position. From time to time, we enter
into foreign currency forward exchange and option contracts to reduce the
foreign currency exposures related to sales and balance sheet accounts
denominated in yen. At December 29, 2001, we did not have any foreign exchange
contracts outstanding.

In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff
Accounting Bulletin No. 101 "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements." We
recorded a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle in the first
quarter of fiscal 2001 to reflect our adoption of new revenue recognition
policies as a result of this guidance. Effective with the first quarter of
fiscal 2001, we have recognized revenue on international shipments based on
customer receipt and title passage of inventory rather than on the date of
shipment, which was our historical method. The cumulative effect of the change
for prior years resulted in a charge to income of $1.7 million. The effect of
the change for the fiscal year 2001 was to increase revenue $5.2 million,
increase cost of sales $3.5 million, increase income before extraordinary gain
and net income before the change in accounting principle $1.7 million, and
increase basic and diluted earnings per share by $0.02 per share.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2001, we also changed our estimate of
the amount of revenue that is deferred on certain distributor transactions under
agreements with only limited rights of return. Results for the fiscal period
ended March 31, 2001 include revenue of $5.4 million, cost of sales of $2.0
million and income of $3.4 million related to this change in estimate. The
effect of this estimate change increased basic and diluted earnings per share by
$0.03 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2001.

Effect of Recently Issued Accounting Standards. In July 2001, the Financial
Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 141, "Business Combinations," and
SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets." SFAS No. 141 requires all
business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 to be accounted for using
the purchase method. Under SFAS No. 142, goodwill and intangible assets with
indefinite lives are no longer amortized but are reviewed annually (or more
frequently if impairment indicators arise) for impairment. Separable intangible
assets that are not deemed to have indefinite lives will continue to be
amortized over their useful lives (but with no maximum life). The amortization
provisions of SFAS No. 142 apply to goodwill and intangible assets acquired
after June 30, 2001. With respect to goodwill and intangible assets acquired
prior to July 1, 2001, we are required to adopt SFAS No. 142 effective March 31,
2002. Goodwill and assembled workforce from business combinations



6
initiated prior to July 1, 2001 of $2.7 million is currently being amortized
based on a composite life of 3.6 years. Such amortization will discontinue on
March 31, 2002. Goodwill totaling $120.4 million from the three business
combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 is not being amortized. We are
currently evaluating any other potential effect that SFAS No. 142 will have on
our results of operations and financial position.

3. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE

As of December 29, 2001, accounts receivable included $73 million in
disputed receivables associated with ongoing litigation with Fujitsu, Ltd. and
Western Digital Corporation and its Malaysian subsidiary, Western Digital (M)
SDN.BHD (see further discussion in Note 10). We remain confident these
receivables are collectible. If we are not successful in collecting these
receivables, we will record a charge to operating expense for the amount
determined to be uncollectible.

4. INVENTORIES

Net inventories are comprised of the following (in thousands):

</Table>

5. INCOME TAXES

We have not accrued income tax expense for the three months and the nine
months ended December 29, 2001 because of the losses incurred for those time
periods and forecasted for the fiscal year ended March 30, 2002.

SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," provides for the recognition
of deferred tax assets if realization of such assets is more likely than not. We
have provided a valuation allowance equal to net deferred tax assets due to
uncertainties regarding their realization. The realizability of the deferred tax
assets will be evaluated on a quarterly basis.

6. RESTRUCTURING CHARGES AND OTHER

On May 2, 2001, we announced a change to our business model that
de-emphasized our magnetic storage chip business and focused on
consumer-entertainment electronics. On May 15, 2001, we announced cost-reduction
actions to align company resources and expenses with this new business model. In
connection with these strategic decisions, we eliminated approximately 120
employee positions worldwide from various business functions and job classes.
During the first quarter of fiscal 2002, we recorded a restructuring charge of
$1.9 million in operating expenses to cover costs associated with these
workforce reductions.

Continuing our restructuring efforts, on October 1, 2001, we announced
plans to further reduce our worldwide workforce during the third quarter of
fiscal 2002. We eliminated approximately 300 employee positions worldwide from
various business functions and job classes during the third quarter of fiscal
2002 and recorded a restructuring charge of $4.5 million in operating expenses
to cover costs associated with these workforce reductions.



7
In conjunction with the third quarter workforce reduction, we also recorded
a $1.0 million restructuring charge in operating expenses for costs associated
with facility consolidations. A summary of the fiscal 2002 restructuring charges
is as follows (in thousands):

<Table>
<Caption>

Facility consolidations 1,030 279 751
------ ------ ------
Total $7,379 $5,466 $1,913
====== ====== ======
</Table>


During the second quarter of fiscal 2001, we recorded $1.8 million in
income due to the final resolution of the MiCRUS restructuring agreement. During
the first quarter of fiscal 2001, we recorded $12.5 million in income to
recognize the receipt of two previously reserved notes from Intel Corporation
("Intel") on behalf of Basis Communications Corporation ("Basis").

Incremental common shares attributable to the exercise of outstanding
options for the three months and the nine months ended December 29, 2001 of
1,265,561 shares and 2,177,718 shares, respectively, were excluded from the
computation of diluted net income per share because the effect would be
antidilutive.

Diluted earnings per share for the nine months ended December 30, 2000 of
$1.82 includes an adjustment to increase net income by $11.0 million and diluted
shares by 8.5 million, which was the quarterly after-tax interest savings and
shares that would have been issued in connection with the convertible debt.

8.   ACQUISITIONS

Peak Audio, Inc. On April 30, 2001, we completed the acquisition of the
assets of Peak Audio, Inc. ("Peak"), a Colorado-based company specializing in
commercial audio networking products. The acquisition was structured as a cash
purchase of Peak's assets for an initial consideration of $11 million. As part
of the acquisition, the shareholders of Peak can potentially receive up to an
additional $16 million in consideration based on the financial performance of
the purchased assets over a two-year period. The contingent consideration can be
paid in cash or Cirrus Logic common stock at our discretion. The acquisition was
accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. The purchase price was
allocated to the estimated fair value of assets acquired based on independent
appraisals and management estimates, resulting in goodwill of $1.1 million,
which is being amortized over five years. Approximately $1.9 million of the Peak
purchase price was allocated to in-process research and development based upon
an independent third-party appraisal and was expensed upon the closing of the
transaction. The results of operations of Peak have been included with those of
the Company subsequent to the acquisition date, which was April 30, 2001.

ShareWave, Inc. On October 2, 2001, we acquired 100% of the outstanding
voting shares of ShareWave, Inc. ("ShareWave"). The results of ShareWave's
operations have been included in our consolidated financial statements since
that date. ShareWave developed a wireless LAN semiconductor solution, based on
IEEE 802.11 standards, capable of seamlessly sharing high-quality audio and
video entertainment throughout the home. The acquisition strengthens the
connectivity portion of our vision, which is to provide semiconductor solutions
that allow people to hear, see, connect and enjoy digital entertainment.

The estimated aggregate purchase price of approximately $76.6 million
included common stock valued at $67.1 million and options valued at $1.0
million. The fair value of the 2.6 million common shares issued was determined
based on the average closing price of our common shares over the period
beginning two days before and ending two days after the announcement of the
acquisition. Of the 2.6 million common shares issued, approximately 443,000 were
placed into an escrow account to cover representations and warranties made by
ShareWave in the merger agreement. The escrow agreement terminates in December
2002. The fair value of the approximately 452,000 options issued in exchange for
the outstanding options of ShareWave was determined using the Black-Scholes
option valuation model. As of December 29, 2001, certain shareholders of
ShareWave had not voted in favor of the acquisition (referred to as "dissenting"
shareholders). We had negotiated but not yet paid a cash settlement to one of
those shareholders by the end of the third fiscal quarter. At December 29, 2001,
we accrued a liability of $8.0 million for the negotiated cash settlement as
well as for the estimated cost to acquire the shares of the remaining dissenting
shareholders. Subsequent to the end of the fiscal quarter, we paid the
negotiated cash settlement and all of the remaining dissenting shareholders
agreed to receive our stock in exchange for their ownership interest in
ShareWave.

The purchase price was allocated to the estimated fair value of assets
acquired and liabilities assumed based on independent appraisals and management
estimates. We recorded acquired intangible assets of $12.0 million, which are
being amortized over a composite life of 4.6 years, and goodwill of $56.2
million. Approximately $14.4 million of the purchase price was allocated to
in-process research and development and was expensed upon completion of the
acquisition.

LuxSonor Semiconductors, Inc. On October 10, 2001, we acquired 100% of the
outstanding voting shares of LuxSonor Semiconductors, Inc. ("LuxSonor"). The
results of LuxSonor's operations have been included in our consolidated
financial statements since that date. LuxSonor has developed a family of DVD
video processors and audio/video semiconductor solutions. This acquisition
strengthens our silicon content and position to provide Total Entertainment
(Total-E(TM)) solutions for current DVD systems as well as next-generation,
Internet-ready DVD players. We now have one of the most comprehensive sets of
optical, video and audio chips needed to build integrated DVD solutions,
increasing our revenue per system opportunities.

The estimated aggregate purchase price of approximately $53.4 million
included common stock valued at $46.5 million and options valued at $1.2
million. The fair value of the 1.8 million common shares issued was determined
based on the average closing price of our common shares over the period
beginning two days before and ending two days after the announcement of the
acquisition. The fair value of the approximately 203,000 options issued in
exchange for the outstanding options of LuxSonor was determined using the
Black-Scholes option valuation model.



10
In conjunction with the acquisition, we paid $9.75 million into an escrow
account to cover representations and warranties made by LuxSonor in the merger
agreement. The escrow agreement terminates in April 2003.

The purchase price was allocated to the estimated fair value of assets
acquired and liabilities assumed based on independent appraisals and management
estimates. We recorded acquired intangible assets of $21.5 million, which are
being amortized over a composite life of 2.7 years, and goodwill of $27.3
million. Approximately $8.6 million of the purchase price was allocated to
in-process research and development and was expensed upon completion of the
acquisition.

Stream Machine Company. On December 7, 2001, we acquired 100% of the
outstanding voting shares of Stream Machine Company ("Stream Machine"). The
results of Stream Machine's operations have been included in our consolidated
financial statements since that date. Stream Machine has advanced silicon and
video algorithm technology for MPEG-2 video recording applications. This
acquisition strengthens our ability to provide Total Entertainment (Total-E(TM))
solutions for next-generation, networked home entertainment applications. Stream
Machine's proprietary video compression technology provides high quality video
for multiple home entertainment applications, such as DVD recorders, personal
video recorders, digital camcorders and PC video peripherals.

The estimated aggregate purchase price of approximately $72.1 million
included common stock valued at $61.8 million and options valued at $9.9
million. The fair value of the 3.6 million common shares issued was determined
based on the average closing price of our common shares over the period
beginning two days before and ending two days after the announcement of the
acquisition. The fair value of the approximately 936,000 options issued in
exchange for the outstanding options of Stream Machine was determined using the
Black-Scholes option valuation model. In connection with the acquisition, we
also issued approximately 740,000 shares that were placed into an escrow account
to cover representations and warranties, as well as certain revenue commitments,
made by Stream Machine in the merger agreement. The escrow agreement terminates
in March 2003. Given the uncertainty around the ultimate issuance of the shares
placed in escrow due to Stream Machine's revenue commitments, they were not
included in determining the estimated aggregate purchase price nor were they
considered to be outstanding for purposes of share count and calculation of
weighted average shares outstanding.

The purchase price was allocated to the estimated fair value of assets
acquired and liabilities assumed based on independent appraisals and management
estimates. We recorded acquired intangible assets of $27.6 million, which are
being amortized over a composite life of four years, and goodwill of $36.9
million. Approximately $6.4 million of the purchase price was allocated to
in-process research and development and was expensed upon completion of the
acquisition.

Pro Forma Results. The following unaudited pro forma information presents
the combined results of operations of the Company, ShareWave, LuxSonor and
Stream Machine for the three and nine months ended December 29, 2001 and
December 30, 2000 as if the mergers had been consummated at the beginning of the
respective fiscal years. Peak was not included in the pro forma disclosure as
the impact of its operations was not significant. The pro forma information
includes the impact of certain pro forma adjustments, including the amortization
of intangibles and non-cash deferred stock compensation. Additionally, the total
in-process research and development charge of $29.4 million recorded for the
three acquisitions has been excluded from the periods presented. The information
is provided for illustrative purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of
the consolidated results of operations that actually would have occurred if the
mergers had been consummated at the beginning of the respective fiscal years,
nor is it necessarily indicative of future operating results of the Company.

9. STOCK REPURCHASE

On April 11, 2001, we repurchased approximately 6.4 million shares of our
common stock from a former member of the Board of Directors for approximately
$68.7 million. The shares were subsequently retired with $57.9 million charged
to capital stock and $10.8 million charged to accumulated deficit.

10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

As of December 29, 2001, we had one volume purchase agreement. The
agreement was executed in August 2000 and expires on March 31, 2003. This
agreement is purchase-order based and does not have "take/pay" clauses. There
are cancellation fees of 50% once the vendor acknowledges a purchase order.
There are cancellation fees of 100% once the vendor begins manufacturing a
purchase order. We had no purchase order commitments as of December 29, 2001
under this agreement. Additionally, we had non-cancelable assembly purchase
orders with numerous vendors totaling $0.8 million.

On October 19, 2001, we filed a lawsuit against Fujitsu, Ltd. in the United
States District Court for the Northern District of California. We are alleging
claims for breach of contract and anticipatory breach of contract, and seek
damages in excess of $46 million. The basis for our complaint is Fujitsu's
refusal to pay for chips delivered to and accepted by it. On December 17, 2001,
Fujitsu filed an answer and a counterclaim. Fujitsu alleges claims for breach of
contract, breach of warranty, quantum meruit/equitable indemnity and declaratory
relief. The basis for the claims is our sale of allegedly defective chips to
Fujitsu, which chips allegedly caused Fujitsu's hard disk drives to fail. The
counterclaim does not specify the damages Fujitsu seeks, other than to allege it
has sustained tens of millions of dollars in damages. We believe Fujitsu's
stated reasons for not paying its contractual obligation are without merit and,
therefore, we continue to carry a receivable of $47 million on our balance
sheet. In addition, the receivable on our balance sheet is based on chips that
are not included in Fujitsu's counterclaim but for which Fujitsu has not paid.
We believe that any potential liability in connection with Fujitsu's
counterclaim is covered by insurance coverage and claims we have against third
parties. We intend to prosecute our lawsuit vigorously.

On July 5, 2001, Western Digital Corporation and its Malaysian subsidiary,
Western Digital (M) SDN.BHD, filed a lawsuit against us in the Superior Court of
the State of California, Orange County, in connection with the purchase of "read
channel" chips from us, as explained in more detail below. On August 20, 2001,
we filed a cross-complaint against the plaintiffs, and on October 9, 2001, the
Court granted our motion for judgment on the pleadings that resulted in the
dismissal of the plaintiffs' entire original complaint. The Court allowed the
plaintiffs 30 days to file an amended complaint.

The plaintiffs filed an amended complaint, in which they alleged that they
entered into an oral supply contract for "read channel" chips with us, and that
we breached the contract and our duty of good faith and fair dealing. This
amended complaint seeks, among other things, unspecified damages, which appear
to be in excess of $60 million, and declaratory relief. We filed a
cross-complaint against the plaintiffs, alleging causes of action for breach of
contract, fraud and negligent misrepresentation. We are seeking damages in
excess of $53 million, as well as punitive damages. The plaintiffs currently owe
us amounts exceeding $53 million for products we have shipped and



12
for non-cancelable orders placed with us. We have a receivable recorded on our
balance sheet of approximately $27 million for the products we have shipped.

On December 24, 2001, the court granted our application for writs of
attachment against the plaintiffs in the amount of approximately $25 million.
The writs will direct the sheriff or the marshal to seize the plaintiffs'
property up to the amount of the writs and hold it to satisfy any judgment the
court may enter. We intend to defend the claims asserted by the plaintiffs and
collect all amounts owed to us.

From time to time, various claims, charges, and litigation are asserted or
commenced against us arising from, or related to, contractual matters,
intellectual property, personnel and employment disputes, as well as other
issues. Frequent claims and litigation involving patent and other intellectual
property rights are not uncommon in the semiconductor industry. As to any such
claims or litigation, we cannot predict the ultimate outcome with certainty. In
the event a third party makes a valid intellectual property claim and a license
is not available on commercially reasonable terms, we would be forced either to
redesign or to stop production of products incorporating that intellectual
property, and our operating results could be materially and adversely affected.
Litigation may also be necessary to enforce our intellectual property rights or
to defend us against claims of infringement, and this litigation may be costly
and divert the attention of key personnel.

12. SEGMENT INFORMATION

We design and manufacture integrated circuits that employ precision linear
and advanced mixed-signal processing technologies. We are now organized into two
principal product lines: Analog Products and Internet Solutions (and, until the
third quarter of fiscal 2002, Magnetic Storage), with the remaining products
grouped as All Other. All Other includes the product lines associated with the
acquisitions we completed in the third quarter of fiscal 2002 as well as
products associated with discontinued businesses. The Chief Executive Officer
(CEO) has been identified as the Chief Operating Decision Maker as defined by
SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related
Information."

Operating segments do not have material sales to other segments, and
accordingly, there are no inter-segment revenues to be reported. We do not
allocate our restructuring charges, interest and other income, interest expense
or income taxes to operating segments. Additionally, we have included in-process
research and development expense in Corporate as the CEO does not consider such
expense when evaluating the performance of the product lines. We do not identify
or allocate assets by operating segments, nor does the CEO evaluate the product
lines based upon these criteria.

NET SALES

Net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 2002 of $77.0 million decreased
by $131.0 million, or 63%, from $208.0 million for the third quarter of fiscal
2001. The decrease in net sales was due primarily to a decrease in Magnetic
Storage net sales of $89.7 million to zero in the third quarter of fiscal 2002,
in line with our previously announced decision to de-emphasize our magnetic
storage chip business. Net sales from our Analog product line decreased $30.6
million, or 35%, in the third quarter of fiscal 2002 from the comparable quarter
of the prior year, mainly due to market conditions. Net sales from our Internet
product line decreased from $24.4 million in the third quarter of



15
fiscal 2001, to $19.5 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2002. Net sales
from All Other (which includes the product lines associated with the
acquisitions we completed this fiscal quarter as well as products associated
with discontinued businesses) decreased $6.3 million from the third quarter of
fiscal 2001. Net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 2002 were essentially
flat compared to net sales for the prior fiscal quarter.

Net sales for the first three quarters of fiscal 2002 decreased by $245.0
million, or 42%, to $333.9 million from $578.9 million for the first three
quarters of fiscal 2001. Analog net sales decreased $100.7 million, or 39%, to
$160.4 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2002 primarily due to market
conditions. Magnetic Storage net sales decreased $77.1 million during the same
time period due to our exit from that product line in the second quarter of
fiscal 2002. Internet net sales decreased $31.0 million, or 42%, in the first
three quarters of fiscal 2002 as compared to the first three quarters of fiscal
2001, mainly due to the strong production ramp of Maverick(R) processors for MP3
players in advance of last year's Christmas season. All Other net sales in the
first nine months of fiscal 2002 decreased $29.9 million from the first nine
months of fiscal 2001. Corporate net sales decreased $6.3 million in the first
nine months of fiscal 2002 versus the comparable period of the prior year, which
included $5.2 million in revenue associated with the change in accounting
principle as explained in more detail below.

Effective with the first quarter of fiscal 2001, we have recognized revenue
on international shipments based on customer receipt and title passage of
inventory, instead of on the date of shipment, which was our historical method.
Results for fiscal 2001 include revenue of $5.2 million, cost of sales of $3.5
million, and a cumulative effect of change in accounting principle of $1.7
million as a result of this change. Also, during the first quarter of fiscal
2001, we changed our estimate of the amount of revenue that is deferred on
distributor transactions under agreements with only limited rights of return.
Results for fiscal 2001 include revenue of $5.4 million, cost of sales of $2.0
million, and income of $3.4 million related to this change in estimate. The
effect of this estimate change increased basic and diluted earnings per share by
$0.03 for fiscal 2001.

Export sales, principally to Asia, including sales to U.S.-based customers
with manufacturing plants overseas, were 77% and 85% of net sales in the third
quarter of fiscal 2002 and fiscal 2001, respectively, and were 86% and 80% of
net sales in the first three quarters of fiscal 2002 and fiscal 2001,
respectively.

Our sales are denominated primarily in U.S. dollars. From time to time, we
enter into foreign currency forward exchange and option contracts to reduce the
foreign currency exposures related to sales and balance sheet accounts
denominated in yen.

During the third fiscal quarter of 2002, sales to Thomson Multimedia S.A.
accounted for 21% of net sales. During the first three quarters of fiscal 2002,
sales to Fujitsu and Western Digital represented 25% and 11% of net sales,
respectively. Sales to Fujitsu and Western Digital comprised approximately 24%
and 13%, respectively, of net sales in the third quarter of fiscal 2001 and 21%
and 11%, respectively, of net sales in the first three quarters of fiscal 2001.

GROSS MARGIN

Gross margin as a percentage of net sales was 8% in the third quarter of
fiscal 2002, down from 40% in the third quarter of fiscal 2001. Gross margin as
a percentage of net sales was 17% and 41% in the first nine months of fiscal
2002 and 2001, respectively. The reduction in gross margin during the third
quarter and the first nine months of fiscal 2002 was primarily the result of
inventory charges recorded during those periods. In conjunction with the
workforce reduction in the third quarter of fiscal 2002, the Company went
through a detailed market and product review and, as a result, chose to
de-emphasize certain products. During the third quarter of fiscal 2002 we
recorded inventory charges of $20.1 million related to our restructuring efforts
and exiting the magnetic storage business and $0.8 million, mainly to reserve
inventory that was excess to short-term usage forecasts. We also recorded
approximately $5.0 million in net cancellation charges associated with exiting a
supply contract for magnetic storage products during the same quarter. During
the first nine months of fiscal 2002, we recorded a net inventory charge of
$56.3 million related to our restructuring efforts and exiting the magnetic
storage business and $13.5 million, mainly to reserve inventory that was excess
to short-term usage forecasts.



16
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSE

Primarily as a result of our third-quarter acquisitions, research and
development expense for the third quarter of fiscal 2002 of $61.5 million
increased $27.6 million, or 82%, from $33.9 million in the third quarter of
fiscal 2001 and research and development expense for the first three quarters of
fiscal 2002 increased $19.9 million, or 20%, from the comparable period of the
prior year. The increase in research and development costs for both time periods
was primarily attributable to the write-off of in-process research and
development related to completed acquisitions as well as ongoing expenses of
those acquired companies, partially offset by reduced costs due to the
implementation of cost reduction and expense control measures, including the
workforce reductions in May 2001 and October 2001. During the third quarter and
the first nine months of fiscal 2002 we wrote off in-process research and
development costs of $29.4 million and $31.3 million, respectively.

SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSE

Selling, general and administrative expense in the third quarter of fiscal
2002 decreased $3.0 million, or 11%, to $24.1 million from $27.1 million in the
third quarter of fiscal 2001. During the first three quarters of fiscal 2002,
selling, general and administrative expense decreased to $72.0 million from
$82.7 million in the comparable period of the prior year, a decline of 13%. The
decrease for both time periods was primarily related to cost reduction and
expense control measures implemented in the current fiscal year, partially
offset by the ongoing expenses of the companies we have acquired in fiscal 2002.
Despite the decline in absolute dollar amounts, selling, general and
administrative expense as a percentage of net sales for the third quarter and
first nine months of fiscal 2002 increased 18% and 8%, respectively, from the
same periods in fiscal 2001 due to the reduction in our net sales in the current
year.

RESTRUCTURING COSTS, GAIN ON SALE OF ASSETS AND OTHER, NET

On May 2, 2001, we announced a change to our business model that
de-emphasized our magnetic storage chip business and focused on
consumer-entertainment electronics. On May 15, 2001, we announced cost-reduction
actions to align company resources and expenses with this new business model. In
connection with these strategic decisions, we eliminated approximately 120
employee positions worldwide from various business functions and job classes.
During the first quarter of fiscal 2002, we recorded a restructuring charge of
$1.9 million in operating expenses to cover costs associated with these
workforce reductions.

Continuing our restructuring efforts, on October 1, 2001, we announced
plans to further reduce our worldwide workforce during the third quarter of
fiscal 2002. We eliminated approximately 300 employee positions worldwide from
various business functions and job classes during the third quarter of fiscal
2002 and recorded a restructuring charge of $4.5 million in operating expenses
to cover costs associated with these workforce reductions. In conjunction with
the third quarter workforce reduction, we also recorded a $1.0 million
restructuring charge in operating expenses for costs associated with facility
consolidations. These restructuring efforts, along with the May workforce
reduction, are expected to result in operating expense savings over the next
twelve months of roughly $25 million to $30 million. Such operating expense
savings will be more than offset by the ongoing expenses of the companies we
acquired in fiscal 2002.

During the second quarter of fiscal 2001, we recorded $1.8 million in
income due to the final resolution of the MiCRUS restructuring agreement. During
the first fiscal quarter of 2001, we recorded $12.5 million in income to
recognize the receipt of two previously reserved notes from Intel Corporation
("Intel") on behalf of Basis Communications Corporation ("Basis").

REALIZED GAINS ON THE SALE OF MARKETABLE EQUITY SECURITIES AND INVESTMENTS

During the third quarter of fiscal 2001, the first nine months of fiscal
2002 and the first nine months of fiscal 2001, we recorded gains of $3.0
million, $1.2 million and $6.0 million, respectively, related to the sale of
call options in Openwave Systems, Inc. (formerly known as Phone.com) common
stock. Also, during the first three quarters of fiscal 2002 and 2001, we
recognized gains on the sale of marketable equity securities of $9.8 million and
$78.5 million, respectively. These gains were related to the fiscal 2001 sale of
our holdings of approximately 1 million shares of Series A preferred stock and
0.5 million shares of common stock in Basis to Intel for $91.8 million.



17
The sale was part of a tender offer whereby Intel purchased the outstanding
preferred and common stock of Basis for $61.18 per share. Intel withheld from
the total consideration paid $11.2 million pursuant to the indemnification
provisions of the merger agreement between Intel and Basis, of which $9.8
million was received in the first quarter of fiscal 2002.

INTEREST EXPENSE

Interest expense was essentially zero for the third fiscal quarter of 2002,
compared to $1.6 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2001. Interest expense
was $0.1 million for the first three fiscal quarters of 2002, compared to $11.7
million for the first three fiscal quarters of 2001. The decrease in interest
expense was primarily due to the repurchase and conversion of our 6% convertible
subordinated notes during fiscal 2001.

INTEREST INCOME

Interest income was $1.0 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2002 and
$4.8 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2001. Interest income was $5.3
million for the first nine months of fiscal 2002 and $13.9 million for the first
nine months of fiscal 2001. The decrease for both these periods was primarily
due to lower cash and cash equivalent balances, on which interest was earned
during fiscal 2002, and to lower interest rates in fiscal 2002. Additionally, we
recorded non-recurring interest income in the first quarter of fiscal 2001 of
$1.4 million related to interest received on two outstanding notes receivable
that had previously been written off.

INCOME TAXES

We have not accrued income tax expense for the three months and the nine
months ended December 29, 2001 because of the losses incurred for those time
periods and forecasted for the fiscal year ended March 30, 2002.

SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," provides for the recognition
of deferred tax assets if realization of such assets is more likely than not. We
have provided a valuation allowance equal to net deferred tax assets due to
uncertainties regarding their realization. The realizability of the deferred tax
assets will be evaluated on a quarterly basis.

EXTRAORDINARY GAIN

During May 2000, we repurchased $28.1 million par value of our 6%
convertible subordinated notes on the open market and recognized an
extraordinary gain in the first quarter of fiscal 2001 of approximately $2.5
million (after income tax effect of $0.3 million) as a result of these
repurchases.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We used approximately $34.6 million of cash and cash equivalents in our
operating activities during the first nine months of fiscal 2002, primarily due
to a decline in accounts payable and accrued liabilities and the cash components
of our net loss. These uses of cash were partially offset by a decrease in
accounts receivable and gross inventory levels. The cash provided by operations
in the first three quarters of fiscal 2001 was primarily the result of operating
profits, partially offset by increases in inventory and accounts receivable.

We used $18.1 million in cash for investing activities during the first
three quarters of fiscal 2002, primarily due to the acquisition of Peak Audio,
Inc. and LuxSonor Semiconductors, Inc., compared to cash provided by investing
activities of $112.7 million during the comparable period of fiscal 2001. The
cash provided by investing activities for fiscal 2001 was primarily due to the
sale of our interest in Basis and the decrease in restricted cash due to reduced
lease commitments, partially offset by capital expenditures and technology
investments.

We used $63.6 million in cash for financing activities during the first
nine months of fiscal 2002 primarily related to the repurchase of approximately
6.4 million shares of stock for $68.7 million. During the first nine months of
fiscal 2001, we used $11.1 million in cash for financing activities primarily
related to the repurchase of $28.1 million par value of our 6% convertible
subordinated notes for $24.9 million.



18
As of December 29, 2001, we had $149.2 million of cash, cash equivalents
and restricted cash. We currently have a $9 million letter of credit secured by
$10 million cash. The letter of credit was issued to secure certain of our
obligations under our lease agreement for a new headquarters facility in Austin,
Texas. The cash collateral for this letter of credit is classified as restricted
cash. As a result of the acquisition of Stream Machine, we also have $2.3
million in restricted cash securing a letter of credit related to Stream
Machines' office lease.

As of December 29, 2001, accounts receivable included $73 million in
disputed receivables associated with ongoing litigation with Fujitsu and Western
Digital (see further discussion in Note 10 to the financial statements). We
remain confident these receivables are collectible. If we are not successful in
collecting these receivables, we will record a charge to operating expense for
the amount determined to be uncollectible.

Although we cannot assure that we will be able to generate cash in the
future, we anticipate that our existing capital resources and cash flow
generated from future operations will enable us to maintain our current level of
operations for the foreseeable future.

FACTORS THAT MAY AFFECT FUTURE OPERATING RESULTS

There are numerous factors that affect our business and the results of our
operations. These factors include strong competition in the integrated circuit
market; general economic and business conditions, including a downturn in our
