PROSPECTUS SUMMARY You should read the following summary together with the more detailed information and financial statements and the notes to those statements appearing elsewhere in this prospectus. You should also carefully consider the risk factors relating to the purchase of our stock, which are described beginning at page 3 below. Our Company Founded in 1991, FOCUS Enhancements, Inc. develops and markets advanced, proprietary multimedia video scan conversion products for the rapidly converging, multi-billion dollar computer and television industries. Our products, which are sold globally through Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) and resellers, merge computer generated graphics and television displays for presentations, training, education, video teleconferencing, Internet viewing and home gaming markets. In addition, we are developing a family of products that will enable the current installed base of televisions, VCRs, and camcorders to remain functional in upcoming HDTV environments. On January 16, 2001, we completed the acquisition of Videonics, Inc. In connection with the acquisition we issued approximately 5,135,000 shares of commons stock to Videonics stockholders. Videonics is a leading designer of affordable, high quality, digital-video equipment for the broadcast, cable, business, industrial, presentation, Internet, and home video production markets. Videonics products include application controllers, edit controllers, mixers, character generators, and video editing software solutions. Videonics began operations in July 1987. On April 6, 2001, Videonics was merged with and into Focus. Our main address is 1370 Dell Avenue, Campbell, California 95008 and our telephone number is (408) 866-8300. Our Web site is located at http://www.Focusinfo.com. Information contained in our Web site is not part of this prospectus. Selected Financial Data Set forth below are selected consolidated financial and other data of the Focus. The financial data is derived in part, and should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto presented elsewhere in the Prospectus. Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2001, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be obtained for the entire year ending December 31, 2001 or any other period.

We have experienced significant losses in the recent past and have been substantially dependent upon private offerings and other sources of financing to fund our operations. 1 The Offering Cancellation of Equity Line of Credit. In an effort to meet our funding needs, we entered into a private equity line of credit agreement with Euston Investments. Under the equity line of credit agreement, we were to issue up to 4,000,000 shares of our common stock, subject to certain restrictions, to Euston at a 10% discount to raise additional money. We had sought to register such shares under a Registration Statement on Form SB-2. However, before the registration statement was declared effective, on January 11, 2002, we mutually agreed to terminate the agreement. As consideration for terminating the agreement, the exercise price of Euston's warrants to purchase 250,000 shares of Focus common stock was reduced from $1.625 to $0.75 per share. In addition, on January 11, 2002, we completed the sale of 2,434,490 shares of our common stock in a private placement to four independent third parties, receiving net proceeds of approximately $2,450,000. The shares were sold at a 20% discount to the 20-day average closing bid prices of our common stock as of December 27, 2001, the date an agreement in principle was reached by the parties. In connection with the private placement, we also issued warrants to purchase 367,140 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $1.36 per share. Selling Stockholders. This prospectus covers up to 5,308,422 shares of our common stock offered by various stockholders of Focus, including those who purchased our stock in the private placement discussed above. We issued these shares in various private transactions and have filed a registration statement to register these shares and allow the stockholders to sell their shares, should they determine to do so. We cannot determine how many or what stockholders will sell shares. We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the shares by the selling stockholders. However, we will receive funds from any common stock issued upon the exercise for cash of the warrants held by the selling stockholders. See "The Offering," and "Selling Stockholders" for more detail beginning on pages 44 and 45 of this prospectus. Key Facts.

You should carefully consider the following risks relating to our business and our common stock, together with the other information described elsewhere in this prospectus. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially affected, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you might lose all or part of your investment. Risks Related to Our Business We have been named as a defendant in alleged class actions alleging violation of federal securities laws. We are subject to two class action lawsuits alleging that Focus and certain present and former officers violated federal securities laws in connection with a number of allegedly false or misleading statements. On May 10, 2001, the Federal District Court dismissed one of the alleged class action in its entirety. Focus believes that it has consistently complied with the federal securities laws, and does not believe at this time that this litigation will result in a material adverse effect on its financial condition. Nonetheless, the management time and resources that could be required to respond effectively to such claims and to defend Focus vigorously in such litigation could adversely impact our management's administrative capabilities and there can be no assurances as to whether the eventual outcome of the cases will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or operations. See "Information About Focus - Legal Proceedings" on page 28. We will need to raise additional capital which will result in further dilution of existing and future stockholders. Historically, we have met our short-and long-term extra cash needs through debt and the sale of common stock in private placements because cash flow from operations has been insufficient to fund its operations. Set forth below is information regarding net proceeds received in the last nine months and our last two fiscal years: Private Offerings Issuance Exercise of Stock Of Common Stock of Debt Options and Warrants Nine months ended September 30, 2001 -- $2,650,000 $ 123,000 Fiscal 2000 $1,284,000 $2,362,000 $1,121,000 Fiscal 1999 $4,414,000 -- $2,596,000 On January 11, 2002, we sold in a private placement, 2,434,490 shares of our common stock to four investors for gross proceeds of $2,750,000. In connection with the private placement, we also issued warrants to purchase 367,140 shares of common stock at $1.36 per share. Future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including cash flow from operations, continued progress in research and development programs, competing technological and market developments, and our ability to market our products successfully. If we require additional equity or debt financing in the future, there can be no assurance that sufficient funds will be raised. Moreover, any equity financing would result in dilution to our then-existing stockholders and any additional debt financing may result in higher interest expense. At January 16, 2002, we had 35,857,893 and 1,904 shares of common and preferred shares issued and outstanding, respectively, and 1,210,219 warrants and 6,144,456 options that are exercisable into shares of common stock. The 1,094 shares of preferred stock are convertible into 1,904,000 shares of our common stock. We also may issue additional shares in acquisitions and may grant 3,909,505 additional stock options to our employees, officers, directors and consultants under our current stock option plans. The issuance or even the potential issuance of shares, in connection with any other additional financing, and upon exercise of warrants, options or rights will have a dilutive impact on other stockholders and could have a negative effect on the market price of our common stock. In the event we are unable to raise additional capital, we may not be able to fund our operations which could result in the inability to execute our current business plan. We are dependent upon a significant stockholder to meet our interim financing needs. We have relied upon the ability of Carl Berg, a director and significant owner of our common stock for interim financing needs. As of September 30, 2001, we had an aggregate of approximately $4,012,000 in debt outstanding to Mr. Berg. There can be no assurances that Mr. Berg will continue to provide such interim financing should we need additional funds. 3 We have a long history of operating losses. As of September 30, 2001, Focus had an accumulated deficit of $53,365,000. Focus incurred net losses of $12,029,000 and $1,480,000 for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999. Additionally, Focus incurred a loss of $4,657,000 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2001. There can be no assurance that we will be profitable. We rely on four vendors for 90% of its product components. Over 90% of the components for our products are manufactured on a turnkey basis by four vendors, Furthertech Company, Ltd., Sicon International, Samsung Semiconductor Inc., and Asemtec Corporation. If these vendors experience production or shipping problems for any reason, Focus in turn could experience delays in the production and shipping of our products, which would have an adverse effect on our results of operations. We are dependent on our suppliers. We purchase all of our parts from outside suppliers and from time to time experience delays in obtaining some components or peripheral devices. Additionally, we are dependent on sole source suppliers for certain components. We attempt to reduce the risk of supply interruption by evaluating and obtaining alternative sources for various components or peripheral devices when such sources are available. However, there can be no assurance that supply shortages will not occur in the future which could significantly increase the cost, or delay shipment, of our products, which in turn could adversely affect our results of operations. We rely on sales to a few major customers for a large part of our revenues. For the year ended December 31, 2000, approximately 15% of our revenues were derived from sales to a major distributor, and approximately 21% of our revenues were derived from sales to two major retailers. These figures were 11% and 4% respectively for the nine months ended September 30, 2001. We do not have long-term contracts requiring any customer to purchase any minimum amount of products. There can be no assurance that we will continue to receive orders of the same magnitude as in the past from existing customers or we will be able to market its current or proposed products to new customers. Loss of any major customer would have a material adverse effect on the Focus business as a whole. Our products may become obsolete very quickly. The computer peripheral markets are characterized by extensive research and development and rapid technological change resulting in short product life cycles. Development by others of new or improved products, processes or technologies may make our products or proposed products obsolete or less competitive. We must devote substantial efforts and financial resources to enhance our existing products and to develop new products. There can be no assurance that we will succeed with these efforts. We may not be able to protect our proprietary information. Although we have filed eight patent applications with respect to our PC-to-TV video-graphics products, currently only five patents have been issued. We treat our technical data as confidential and rely on internal non-disclosure safeguards, including confidentiality agreements with employees, and on laws protecting trade secrets, to protect our proprietary information. There can be no assurance that these measures will adequately protect the confidentiality of our proprietary information or prove valuable in light of future technological developments. Delays in product development could adversely affect our market position or customer relationships. We have experienced delays in product development in the past and may experience similar delays in the future. Given the short product life cycles in the markets for our products, any delay or unanticipated difficulty associated with new product introductions or product enhancements could cause us to lose customers and damage our competitive position. Prior delays have resulted from numerous factors, such as: o changing product specifications; o difficulties in hiring and retaining necessary personnel; o difficulties in reallocating engineering resources and other resource limitations; o difficulties with independent contractors; o changing market or competitive product requirements; unanticipated engineering complexity; o undetected errors or failures in software and hardware; and o delays in the acceptance or shipment of products by customers. 4 If we are unable to respond to rapid technological change in a timely manner, then we may lose customers to our competitors. To remain competitive, we must continue to enhance and improve the responsiveness, functionality and features of our products. Our industry is characterized by rapid technological change, changes in user and customer requirements and preferences and frequent new product and service introductions. If competitors introduce products and services embodying new technologies, or if new industry standards and practices emerge, then our existing proprietary technology and systems may become obsolete. Our future success will depend on our ability to do the following: o both license and internally develop leading technologies useful in our business; o enhance our existing technologies; o develop new services and technology that address the increasingly sophisticated and varied needs of our prospective customers; and o respond to technological advances and emerging industry standards and practices on a cost-effective and timely basis. To develop our proprietary technology entails significant technical and business risks. We may use new technologies ineffectively, or we may fail to adapt our proprietary technology and transaction processing systems to customer requirements or emerging industry standards. If we face material delays in introducing new services, products and enhancements, then our customers may forego the use of our services and use those of our competitors. We typically operate without a significant amount of backlog. We typically operate with a small amount of backlog. Accordingly, we generally do not have a material backlog of unfilled orders, and revenues in any quarter are substantially dependent on orders booked in that quarter. Any significant weakening in current customer demand would therefore have and has had in the past an almost immediate adverse impact on our operating results. Our quarterly financial results are subject to significant fluctuations. We have been unable in the past to accurately forecast our operating expenses or revenues. Our revenues currently depend heavily on volatile customer purchasing patterns. If actual revenues are less than projected revenues, we may be unable to reduce expenses proportionately, and our operating results, cash flows and liquidity would likely be adversely affected. In the past, our common stock has not met the minimum levels to remain listed on the Nasdaq SmallCap Market. If we were to be delisted, it could make trading in our stock more difficult. Our common stock is traded on the Nasdaq SmallCap Market. There are various quantitative listing requirements for a company to remain listed on the Nasdaq SmallCap Market. o We must maintain stockholders' equity of $2,500,000. At September 30, 2001, we had total stockholders' equity of $7.2 million. To the extent we continue losing money and do not raise additional capital, our stockholders' equity will be reduced. o We are required to maintain a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share for our common stock. The closing price of our common stock on January 16, 2002 was $1.55. Between June 1, 2001 and December 31, 2001, our stock closed below $1.00 a share on 38 of 155 trading days. On February 12, 2002, the closing per share price of our common stock was $1.18. If we fail these Nasdaq SmallCap requirements in the future, our common stock could be delisted, eliminating the only established trading market for shares of our common stock. Any sales of our common stock at a discount to market may reduce the trading price of our common stock to a level below the Nasdaq minimum bid price requirement. In the event we are delisted from Nasdaq, we would be forced to list our shares on the OTC Electronic Bulletin Board or some other quotation medium, such as pink sheets, depending on our ability to meet the specific listing requirements of those quotation systems. As a result an investor might find it more difficult to dispose of, or to obtain accurate price quotations for, our shares. Delisting might also reduce the visibility, liquidity, and price of our common stock. Our common stock price is volatile. The market price for our common stock is volatile and has fluctuated significantly to date. For example, between January 1, 2001 and January 16, 2002, the per share price of our stock has fluctuated between $0.66 and $2.18 per share, closing at $1.18 at February 12, 2002. The trading price of our common stock is likely to continue to be highly volatile and subject to wide fluctuations in response to factors including the following: 5 o actual or anticipated variations in our quarterly operating results; o announcements of technological innovations, new sales formats or new products or services by us or our competitors; o changes in financial estimates by securities analysts; o changes in the economic performance and/or market valuations of other multi-media, video scan companies; o announcements by us of significant acquisitions, strategic partnerships, joint ventures or capital commitments; o additions or departures of key personnel; and o sales of common stock. In addition, the securities markets have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations, and the market prices of the securities of technology companies have been especially volatile. These broad market and industry factors may adversely affect the market price of our common stock, regardless of our actual operating performance. In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of stock, many companies have been the object of securities class action litigation, including us. If we are sued again in a securities class action, then it could result in additional substantial costs and a diversion of management's attention and resources. Risks Related to Our Industry International sales are subject to significant risk. Our revenues from outside the United States are subject to inherent risks related thereto, including currency rate fluctuations, the general economic and political conditions in each country. There can be no assurance that the economic crisis and currency issues currently being experienced in certain parts of the world will not have a material adverse effect on our revenue or operating results in the future. Our businesses are very competitive. The computer peripheral markets are extremely competitive. We currently compete with other developers of video conversion products and with video-graphic integrated circuit developers. Many of our competitors have greater market recognition and greater financial, technical, marketing and human resources. Although we are not currently aware of any announcements by its competitors that would have a material impact on its operations, there can be no assurance that we will be able to compete successfully against existing companies or new entrants to the marketplace. The video production equipment market is highly competitive and is characterized by rapid technological change, new product development and obsolescence, evolving industry standards and significant price erosion over the life of a product. Competition is fragmented with several hundred manufacturers supplying a variety of products to this market. We anticipate increased competition in the video post-production equipment market from both existing manufacturers and new market entrants. Increased competition could result in price reductions, reduced margins and loss of market share, any of which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. There can be no assurance that we will be able to compete successfully against current and future competitors in this market. Often our competitors have greater financial, technical, marketing, sales and customer support resources, greater name recognition and larger installed customer bases than we possess. In addition, some of our competitors also offer a wide variety of video equipment, including professional video tape recorders, video cameras and other related equipment. In some cases, these competitors may have a competitive advantage based upon their ability to bundle their equipment in certain large system sales. The energy crisis in the State of California could adversely effect our operations. Various factors including the opening of new power plants, moderate weather, the national economic slowdown, and energy conservation contributed to the State of California's ability to meet our electricity demand during the summer of 2001 with minimal disruption. While the peak summer demand season is now over, longer term aspects of the California energy crisis remain, including uncertainty regarding the settlement of the various financial components of the crisis. These financial components include a potential adverse impact on the State of California's general fund, the determination of which energy customers will bear what cost burdens, and the resolution of the financial status of the two largest utilities in the State. 6 We remain concerned about the potential impact of California's energy crisis upon our operations and the financial condition of our customers and suppliers in California. Focus itself is not a particularly large user of energy. However, our California offices at this time do not have backup generators, and hence we would need to curtail our operations in the event of an electricity brown-out or black-out. Recent terrorist attacks in the United States have affected the stock market and the general economy and could negatively affect our income. On September 11, 2001, the World Trade Center in New York was destroyed, the Pentagon outside Washington, DC was damaged and a jetliner crashed in central Pennsylvania as a result of terrorist attacks. Following these attacks, stock prices declined in general, and questions were raised concerning the impact that the terrorist attacks and the United States' response would have on the national economy. These uncertainties have contributed to the existing slowdown in economic activity in the United States. Continuing weakness in the economy could decrease demand for our products, increase delinquencies in payments and otherwise have an adverse impact on our business. 7 SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS We make many statements in this prospectus under the captions "Prospectus Summary ," "Risk Factors," "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," "Information About Focus," and elsewhere that are forward-looking and are not based on historical facts. These statements relate to our future plans, projections, objectives, expectations, assumptions, beliefs and intentions. In some cases you can identify these statements by the use of words such as "anticipate" "assume," "believe," "could," "estimates," "expect," "intend," "may," "plan," "project," "should" and other similar expressions. These forward-looking statements involve a number of known and unknown risks and uncertainties. Our, and our industry's actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those we discuss in "Risk Factors" and elsewhere in this prospectus. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this prospectus, and we caution you not to rely on these statements without also considering the risks and uncertainties associated with these statements and our business that are addressed in this prospectus. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance, or achievements. The forward-looking statements made in this prospectus relate only to events and assumptions as of the date on which the statements are made. Moreover, neither we or any other persons assumes responsibility for the accuracy and completeness of the forward-looking statements. DILUTION The issuance of further shares and the eligibility of issued shares for resale will dilute our common stock and may lower the price of our common stock. If you invest in our common stock, your interest will be diluted to the extent of the difference between the price per share you pay for the common stock and the pro forma as adjusted tangible book value per share of our common stock at the time of sale. We calculated net tangible book value per share by calculating the total assets less goodwill and total liabilities, and by dividing it by the number of outstanding shares of common stock. Historically, we have met our short-and long-term extra cash needs through debt and the sale of common stock in private placements because cash flow from operations has been insufficient to fund our operations. Set forth below is information regarding net proceeds of such sales received in our last two fiscal years: Private Offerings Issuance Exercise of Stock of Common Stock of Debt Options and Warrants Nine months ended September 30, 2001 -- $2,650,000 $ 123,000 Fiscal 2000 $1,284,000 $2,362,000 $1,121,000 Fiscal 1999 $4,414,000 -- $2,596,000 On January 11, 2002, we sold in a private placement 2,434,490 shares of our common stock to four investors for gross proceeds of $2,750,000. In connection with the private placement, we also issued warrants to purchase 367,140 shares of common stock at $1.36 per share. Assuming all shares of stock covered by this prospectus are outstanding, including the underlying 827,140 shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of warrants, stockholders would be diluted by approximately 2.3%. As of January 16, 2002, 4,481,262 shares being offered pursuant to this prospectus are already outstanding. These issuances diluted existing stockholders by approximately 12.5%. Future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including cash flow from operations, continued progress in research and development programs, competing technological and market developments, and our ability to market our products successfully. If we require additional equity or debt financing in the future, there can be no assurance that sufficient funds will be raised. Moreover, any equity financing would result in dilution to our then-existing stockholders, and any additional debt financing may result in higher interest expense. At January 16, 2002, we had 35,857,893 and 1,904 common and preferred shares issued and outstanding, respectively, and 1,210,219 warrants and 6,144,456 options that are exercisable into shares of common stock. The 1,904 shares of preferred stock are convertible into 1,904,000 shares of our common stock. We also may issue additional shares in acquisitions and may grant up to 3,909,505 additional stock options to our employees, officers, directors and consultants under our current stock option plans. 8 USE OF PROCEEDS We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of shares by many of the selling stockholders. However, we will receive funds from the exercise of warrants held by selling stockholders who pay the exercise price in cash. The table below sets forth our estimates with respect to the warrants. Funds from Net Proceeds to Focus(1) ---------- ------------------------ Exercise of Warrants $1,025,000 - ---------- (1) Assumes 185,000, 250,000, 367,140 and 25,000 warrants are exercised for cash at $1.625, $0.75, $1.36 and $1.54 per share, respectively. There can, however, be no assurance when or whether any or all of such shares or warrants will be sold for cash or exercised, or whether such holders utilize a cashless option whereby we would not receive any funds. Furthermore, there can be no assurance all of the warrants will be exercised before they expire. At February 12, 2002, the closing price of our common stock was $1.18. We expect to use the proceeds of any such sales for general working capital purposes, including sales and marketing, product development and other corporate documents. We will have broad discretion in the use of the proceeds from the exercise of the warrants for cash. You will not have the opportunity to evaluate the economic, financial or other information on which we base our decisions on how to use the net proceeds. If we fail to apply the net proceeds effectively, our business could be negatively affected. DIVIDEND POLICY We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock. We anticipate that any earnings will be retained for development and expansion of our business and we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the near future. Our board of directors has sole discretion to pay cash dividends based on our financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements, contractual obligations and other relevant factors. 9 MARKET FOR OUR COMMON STOCK Since our initial public offering on May 25, 1993, our common stock has traded on The Nasdaq SmallCap Market under the symbol "FCSE."

Please refer to "Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" and "Risk Factors" for additional information. Comparison of Operating Results for the Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2001 and 2000 Net Revenues Net revenues for the three-months ended September 30, 2001 were $6,717,000 as compared with $4,116,000 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2000 an increase of $2,601,000, or 63%. Net revenues for the nine-months ended September 30, 2001 were $18,215,000 as compared with $12,130,000 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2000 an increase of $6,085,000, or 50%. For the three months ended September 30, 2001, net sales to Professional AV customers were approximately $3,716,000 compared to $1,345,000 for the same period in 2000, an increase of $2,371,000 or 176%. For the nine months ended September 30, 2001, net sales to Professional AV customers were approximately $10,783,000 compared to $3,424,000 for the same period in 2000, an increase of $7,359,000 or 215%. Such increase in net sales to Professional AV customers for the three and nine month periods ending September 30, 2001 primarily related to the inclusion of Videonics Inc. sales beginning on January 16, 2001 of $2,451,000 and $7,308,000, respectively. For the three months ended September 30, 2001, net sales to OEM customers were approximately $1,696,000 as compared to $1,073,000 for the same period in 2000, an increase of $623,000 or 58%. For the nine months ended September 30, 2001, net sales to OEM customers were approximately $3,208,000 as compared to $2,674,000 for the same period in 2000, an increase of $534,000 or 20%. The increase in both the three and nine month periods is primarily attributable to contract revenue of $693,000 and $1,021,000 in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2001, respectively. Sales of our current line of application specific integrated circuits ("ASIC") chips (FS400, FS450 and 460 families) increased by $478,000 (83%) and $1,619,000 (130%) over three and nine month prior year periods, respectively. For the three months ended September 30, 2001, net sales to Resellers consisting of Distributors, Retailers, VAR's and Education segments were approximately $1,305,000 as compared to $1,698,000 for the same period in 2000, a decrease of $393,000 or 23%. For the nine months ended September 30, 2001, net sales to Resellers were approximately $4,224,000 as compared to $6,032,000 for the same period in 2000, a decrease of $1,808,000 or 30%. The decrease is primarily the result a reduction of nationwide computer sales, decreased educational spending and a trend by certain customers to incorporate our scan conversion chips in televisions and video conferencing systems. As of September 30, 2001, the Company had a sales order backlog of approximately $150,000. Cost of Goods Sold Cost of goods sold were $4,387,000, or 65% of net sales, for the three-months ended September 30, 2001, as compared with $2,729,000, or 66% of net sales, for the three-months ended September 30, 2000. The Company's gross profit margin for the third quarters of 2001 and 2000 were 35% and 34%, respectively. Cost of goods sold were $11,300,000, or 62% of net sales, for the nine-months ended September 30, 2001, as compared with $8,420,000, or 69% of net sales, for the nine-months ended September 30, 2000. The Company's gross profit margin for the nine-month periods of 2001 and 2000 were 38% and 31%, respectively. The increase in gross margin for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2001, are primarily related to, increased sales and the efficiencies gained by consolidating the manufacturing operations into one facility following the merger with Videonics. Additionally, the nine month period ended September 30, 2000 included charges to cost of sales principally attributable to a physical inventory adjustment at Focus' Far East contract manufacturer of approximately $285,000 and the write-down of inventory to its net realizable value, including the InVideo product line of approximately $318,000. In addition, gross margin was lower due to customer mix and sales of certain slow moving product at carrying value. Sales, Marketing and Support Expenses Sales, marketing and support expenses were $1,425,000, or 21% of net revenues, for the three-months ended September 30, 2001, as compared with $797,000, or 19% of net revenues, for the three-months ended September 30, 2000, an increase of $628,000 or 79%. Sales, marketing and support expenses were $4,531,000, or 25% of net revenues, for the nine-months ended September 30, 2001, as compared with $2,857,000, or 24% of net revenues, for the nine-months ended September 30, 2000, an increase of $1,674,000 or 59%. 11 The increase in absolute dollars and as a percentage of net revenues for the three and nine month periods ending September 30, 2001 are primarily due to the addition of Videonics sales, marketing and support expenses following the merger on January 16, 2001. General and Administrative Expenses General and administrative expenses for the three-months ended September 30, 2001 were $467,000 or 7% of net revenues, as compared with $542,000 or 13% of net revenues for the three-months ended September 30, 2000, a decrease of $75,000 or 14%. General and administrative expenses for the nine-months ended September 30, 2001 were $1,683,000 or 9% of net revenues, as compared with $2,432,000 or 20% of net revenues for the nine-months ended September 30, 2000, a decrease of $749,000 or 31%. The decrease of general and administrative expenses in absolute dollars and as a percentage of net sales for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2001 is primarily a result of decreased payroll expenses and consulting fees. Additionally, the first quarter of 2000 included accounting and legal fees of approximately $302,000 relating to the Company's review of accounting practices and a special investigation conducted by the Board of Directors. Research and Development Expenses Research and development expenses for the three-months ended September 30, 2001 were approximately $617,000 or 9% of net revenues, as compared with $245,000 or 6% of net revenues, for the three-months ended September 30, 2000, an increase of $372,000 or 152%. Research and development expenses for the nine-months ended September 30, 2001 were approximately $2,515,000 or 14% of net revenues, as compared with $854,000 or 7% of net revenues, for the nine-months ended September 30, 2000, an increase of $1,661,000 or 194%. The increase in research and development expenses in both absolute dollars and as a percentage of revenues is due primarily to the addition of Videonics research and development expenses. Additionally, the Company did not capitalize any ASIC development costs during the three or nine-month periods ended September 30, 2001. In the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2000 the Company capitalized ASIC development costs of $450,000 and $1,210,000, respectively. Partially offsetting the increases just described, were the allocation of research and development expenses to costs of sales during the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2001, as the Company performed development work under contract. Amortization Amortization expenses for the three-month period ended September 30, 2001 were $700,000 or 10% of net revenues, as compared with $182,000 or 4% of net revenues, for the three-months ended September 30, 2000, an increase of $518,000 or 285%. Amortization expenses for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2001 were $1,976,000 or 11% of net revenues, as compared with $432,000 or 4% of net revenues, for the nine-months ended September 30, 2000, an increase of $1,544,000 or 357%. The increase in terms of absolute dollars and as a percentage of net revenues is primarily due to the Company recording and subsequently amortizing goodwill and intangibles associated with the Videonics merger. Amortization associated with the merger approximated $557,000 and $1,579,000, respectively, for the three and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2001. Excluding the increase associated with the Videonics merger, amortization expenses decreased as the Company wrote-off and adjusted down the carrying value of its goodwill amounts in the fourth quarter of 2000. See also Note 4 "Recent Accounting Pronouncements" on page S-6. Restructuring Expenses For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2001, the Company recorded restructuring expenses totaling $33,000 related to the closure of its Wilmington, MA, facility. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2000, the Company recorded restructuring expenses of $202,000 in conjunction with the closure of its Morgan Hill, CA facility and operation. These direct expenses are comprised of inventory adjustments of approximately $118,000, payroll and benefits of approximately $57,000, travel of approximately $16,000 and lease cancellation charges of approximately $11,000. Write-off of In-Process Technology In connection with the acquisition of Videonics during the first quarter of 2001, the Company recorded a charge for purchased in-process technology of $505,000. 12 Interest Expense, Net Net interest expense for the three-month period ended September 30, 2001 was $44,000, or 1% of net revenues, as compared to $3,000 for the three-months ended September 30, 2000, an increase of $41,000. Net interest expense for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2001 was $267,000, or 1% of net revenues, as compared to $58,000 for the nine-months ended September 30, 2000, an increase of $209,000. The increase in interest expense is primarily attributable to an increase in debt of approximately $3.6 million between comparable periods ending September 30. Other Expense, Net Other income for the three-month period ended September 30, 2001 was $33,000, as compared to other income of $13,000 for the three-months ended September 30, 2000, a change of $20,000. Other expense for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2001 was $62,000, as compared to other income of $67,000 for the nine-months ended September 30, 2000, a change of $129,000. The increase in other income for the three month period ended September 30, 2001 is primarily attributable to gains of approximately $128,000 related to the settlement of debts for less than original amounts accrued, offset by charges of $69,000 associated with the untimely registering of AMRO Investment International's 1,400,000 shares which were issued in connection with a private placement in which the Company received gross proceeds of $1,500,000 in June 2000. The Company expects to incur these charges until the shares are registered. The increase in other expense for the nine month period ended September 30, 2001 are primarily attributable to charges of $374,000 associated with the untimely registering of AMRO Investment International's shares. Offsetting these charges were gains of approximately $328,000 related to the settlement of debts for less than original amounts accrued. Liquidity and Capital Resources Since inception, the Company has financed its operations primarily through the public and private sale of common stock, proceeds from the exercise of options and warrants, short-term borrowing from private lenders, and favorable credit arrangements with vendors and suppliers. Net cash used in operating activities for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2001 and 2000 was $2,952,000 and $2,351,000, respectively. In first nine months of 2001, net cash used in operating activities consisted primarily of a net loss of $4,657,000 adjusted for depreciation and amortization of $2,328,000, the write-off of in-process technology related to the acquisition of Videonics totaling $505,000, deferred compensation expense of $209,000, a decrease in accrued expenses totaling $160,000 and an increase in accounts receivable of $1,260,000, partially offset by an increase in accounts payable of $78,000. In the first nine months of 2000, net cash used in operating activities consisted primarily of a net loss of $5,208,000 adjusted for depreciation and amortization of $733,000 and an increase in prepaid expenses and other assets of $1,132,000 offset by an increase in accrued liabilities of $2,092,000 and a decrease in inventories of $1,605,000. As of September 30, 2001 and 2000, accounts receivable from a major distributor represented approximately 23% and 24%, respectively of total accounts receivable. Net cash provided by investing activities for the nine-months ended September 30, 2001 was $1,156,000 whereas net cash used by investing activities was $1,152,000 for the nine-months ended September 30, 2000. For the first nine months of 2001, cash was provided by a reduction in restricted certificates of deposit of approximately $965,000 and net cash provided through the acquisition of Videonics on January 16, 2001, of $360,000, offset by additions to property and equipment of $169,000. The acquisition of Videonics was accounted for as a purchase and made through the issuance of approximately 5,135,000 shares of the Company's common stock. In the first nine months of 2000, cash used in investing activities was for the purchase of property and equipment and capitalized software development costs of $406,000 and an increase in restricted certificates of deposit of approximately $746,000. Net cash provided by financing activities for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2001 and 2000 was $2,150,000 and $1,052,000, respectively. In the first nine months of 2001, cash provided by financing activities occurred primarily from the issuance of notes payable to a stockholder and director of the Company of $2,650,000 offset by repayments of $400,000 to a bank. In the first nine months of 2000, the Company received $1,121,000 in net proceeds from the exercise of common stock options and warrants and received $1,284,000 from private offerings of common stock. The Company's financing proceeds were offset by payments on notes payable and capital lease obligations totaling $1,353,000. 13 As of September 30, 2001, the Company had working capital of $3,147,000, as compared to $224,000 at December 31, 2000, an increase of $2,923,000. The Company has incurred losses and negative cash flows from operations for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2000 and for the period ending September 30, 2001 and as such has been dependent upon raising money for short and long-term cash needs through debt, proceeds from the exercise of options and warrants, and the sale of common stock in private placements. For the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, the Company received approximately $1,284,000 and $4,414,000, respectively, in net proceeds from private offerings of common stock and $1,121,000 and $2,596,000, respectively, from the exercise of common stock options and warrants. For the nine months ended September 30, 2001, the Company has received approximately $123,000 in net proceeds from the exercise of stock options. In addition, on February 28, 2001, and June 29, 2001, the Company and Carl Berg, a Focus director and stockholder entered into Secured Convertible Promissory Note agreements under which Mr. Berg loaned the Company a total of $2.7 million to support the Company's working capital needs. On May 7, 2001, the Company converted $2.3 million of outstanding debt under two separate promissory notes and accrued interest owed by Focus to Mr. Berg to Convertible Preferred Stock. See "Note 7 - Commitments - Convertible Notes" beginning on page S-7 for more information. At September 30, 2001, the Company owed Mr. Berg approximately $4.1 million in principal and accrued interest on various notes. Management has taken steps to reduce costs, including the closure of its PC Video facility in Morgan Hill, CA in the first quarter of 2000 and its Wilmington, MA facility on April 1, 2001. All operations, customer support and finance were moved into the Campbell, CA, facility. In connection with this restructuring, the Company has reduced overall personnel by approximately 20%. Management is assessing product lines in light of the recent merger with Videonics Inc., to identify how to enhance existing or create new distribution channels. In addition, the Company released three new products in the third quarter of 2001, which should provide the Company with incremental revenue. In an effort to meet those needs, Focus entered into a Private Equity Line of Credit Agreement ("Equity Agreement") with Euston Investments ("Euston"). Under the Equity Agreement, the Company was to issue up to 4,000,000 shares of its common stock, subject to certain restrictions, to Euston at a 10% discount to raise additional money. The Company had sought to register such shares under a Registration Statement on Form SB-2. However, before the registration statement was declared effective, on January 11, 2002, Focus and Euston mutually agreed to terminate the agreement. As consideration for terminating the agreement, the exercise price of Euston's warrants to purchase 250,000 shares of Focus common stock was reduced from $1.625 to $0.75 per share. Focus then sold 2,434,490 shares of its common stock in a private placement to four independent third parties, receiving net proceeds of approximately $2,450,000. The shares were sold at a 20% discount to the 20-day average closing bid prices of our common stock as of December 27, 2001, the date an agreement in principle was reached by the parties. In connection with the private placement, Focus also issued warrants to purchase 367,140 shares of its common stock at an exercise price of $1.36 per share. Ultimate future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including cash flow from operations, continued progress in research and development programs, competing technological and market developments, and our ability to market our products successfully. As of the date of this prospectus, the Company has no commitments from any other sources to provide additional equity or debt financing. As such, there can be no assurance that sufficient funds will be raised. Moreover, any equity financing would result in dilution to our then-existing stockholders and any additional debt financing may result in higher interest expense. Although there can be no assurances, the Company believes that its current cash, its borrowings from a stockholder, and its recent private equity placement, together with its operating cash flows, will be sufficient to meet the Company's requirements for working capital, and capital expenditures for the next 12 months. 14 Comparison of Operating Results for the Years Ended December 31, 2000 and 1999. General The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, income and expense items included in the Consolidated Statements of Operations, expressed as a percentage of net sales: Year Ended December 31, ----------------------- 2000 1999 ---- ---- Net sales.............................. 100% 98% Licensing fees......................... -- 2 Total revenues....................... 100 100 Cost of goods sold................... 77 61 Gross profit......................... 23 39 Operating expenses: Sales, marketing and support......... 25 23 General and administrative........... 25 11 Research and development............. 9 8 Restructuring Expense................ 5 -- Write-off of capitalized software 15 -- Depreciation and amortization........ 8 4 Impairment of goodwill............... -- -- Total operating expenses............. 87 46 Loss from operations...................

(79) (9) Net Sales Net sales for the year ended December 31, 2000 were $15,233,000 as compared with $17,183,000 for the year ended December 31, 1999, a decrease of $1,950,000, or 11%. During the year ended December 31, 2000, the Company had net sales increases to Professional AV customers (36%), to international customers (15%), to OEM customers (18%) and to Internet customers (38%), while it had decreases in net sales to US Resellers (27%). In 2000, net sales to US Resellers consisting of Distributors, Retailers, VAR's and Education segments were approximately $8,375,000 as compared to $11,402,000 in 1999, a decrease of $3,027,000 or 27%. Net sales to a major distributor totaled approximately $2,242,000 or 15% as compared to 4,318,000 or 25% in 1999. The decrease is primarily the result of exiting a national office superstore in 1999 and a reduction in educational spending. During 2000, net sales to OEM customers were approximately $2,879,000 as compared to $2,442,000 in 1999, an increase of $437,000 or 18%. ASIC chip sales increased 234% as a result of the market acceptance of the FS400 chip family in the television conferencing industry. The FS400 began shipping in December 1999. Net sales to international customers in 2000 were approximately $868,000 compared to $758,000 in 1999, an increase of $110,000 or 15%. The increase is principally the result of the addition of professional AV sales to the international sector. In 2000, net sales to Professional AV customers were approximately $2,881,000 compared to $2,112,000 in 1999, an increase of $769,000 or 36%. Revenue grew as result of introducing two new product families: the Pro AV 1600 professional scan converter and the QuadScan Pro video scaler for the home theater market. In 2000, net sales to customers on-line via the Internet were approximately $230,000 compared to $167,000 in 1999. The increase is principally the result of the Company establishing an e-commerce site which offers products direct to customers. There were no other net sales in 2000. In 1999, other net sales approximated $165,000. During the fourth quarter of 2000 and 1999, the Company reduced net sales by approximately $360,000 and $1,070,000, respectively, representing an estimate of product sales returns from major customers, including anticipated sales returns that would occur in the subsequent quarter. 15 Licensing Fees In 2000, the Company did not record any significant licensing fees. In 1999, the Company received licensing fees of $350,000. Licensing fees in 1999 were comprised of single source, non-recurring licensing revenues. Cost of Goods Sold Cost of goods sold was $11,787,000, or 77% of net sales, for the year ended December 31, 2000, as compared with $10,544,000, or 61% of net sales, for the year ended December 31, 1999, an increase of $1,243,000 or 12%. For the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, the Company recorded charges to inventory obsolescence of $1,532,000 and $906,000 respectively. These charges were to reserve for excess and obsolete inventory and to adjust the carrying value of inventory to its estimated net realizable value. In the fourth quarter of 2000, as a result of a detailed review of its inventories the Company charged approximately $668,000 to expense in the fourth quarter of 2000, thereby increasing its inventory reserves to approximately $753,000 at December 31, 2000. In the fourth quarter of 1999, the Company adjusted the carrying values of certain inventory items to their estimated net realizable values. As a result, the Company charged approximately $389,000 to expense in the fourth quarter of 1999 writing off certain items and increasing its inventory reserves to approximately $399,000. During the fourth quarter of 2000 and 1999, the Company reduced cost of sales by approximately $180,000 and $535,000, respectively, representing an estimate of the cost of product returns from major customers, including anticipated sales returns that would occur in the subsequent quarter. Sales, Marketing and Support Expenses Sales, marketing and support expenses were $3,822,000, or 25% of net revenues, for the year ended December 31, 2000, as compared with $3,970,000, or 23% of net revenues, for the year ended December 31, 1999, a decrease of $148,000 or 4%. The decrease in sales, marketing and support expenses in absolute dollars is primarily the result of reduced marketing and advertising expenses. General and Administrative Expenses General and administrative expenses for the year ended December 31, 2000 were $3,798,000 or 25% of net revenues, as compared with $1,878,000 or 11% of net revenues for the year ended December 31, 1999, an increase of $1,920,000 or 102%. The increase in terms of absolute dollars is primarily due to increases of $235,000 in consulting fees, $140,000 for the write-off of a note receivable, $621,000 in legal fees, $309,000 in accounting fees, and approximately $428,000 in provisions for bad debts. Consulting expenses are primarily related to consulting contracts the Company entered into with its former Chief Executive Officer and its former Vice President of Finance on May 1, 2000 and expired on April 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000, respectively. In December 2000, the Company determined that it no longer needed its former Chief Executive Officer to provide executive level consulting services. In connection with this action, the Company also wrote-off the outstanding balance of a note receivable due from its former Chief Executive Officer in the amount of $140,000 and reserved $40,000 for the remaining amount due under the consulting contract. The increase in legal fees primarily are related to a special investigation that occurred in the March - April 2000 time frame and totaled approximately $302,000 and year long litigation expenses associated with the two class action lawsuits which approximated $180,000. The Company met its insurance deductible in the first quarter of 2001 in regards to both class action suits. The increase in accounting fees is primarily related to the special investigation. See "Special Investigation" on page 18 and "Legal Proceedings" beginning on page 28 for more information. Research and Development Expenses Research and development expenses for the year ended December 31, 2000 were approximately $1,312,000 or 9% of net revenues, as compared with $1,401,000 or 8% of net revenues, for the year ended December 31, 1999, a decrease of $89,000 or 6%. The decrease in research and development expenses in both absolute dollars and as a percentage of revenues is due primarily to incremental increases in capitalized ASIC development costs of approximately $73,000 between years. Depreciation and Amortization Depreciation and amortization expenses for the year ended December 31, 2000 were $1,132,000 or 8% of net revenues, as compared with $557,000 or 4% of net revenues, for the year ended December 31, 1999, an increase of $575,000 or 103%. The increase in terms of absolute dollars and as a percentage of net revenues is primarily due to the Company beginning to amortize its capitalized software in January 2000. Amortization of capitalized software totaled $424,000 for the year ended December 31, 2000. 16 Restructuring Expense For the year ended December 31, 2000, the Company recorded restructuring expenses totaling $724,000 related to the closure of its Morgan Hill, CA, facility and the closure of its Wilmington, MA, facility. The closure of the Company's Morgan Hill facility occurred in the first quarter of 2000 and restructuring charges totaled approximately $202,000. Direct expenses were comprised of inventory adjustments of approximately $118,000, payroll and benefits of approximately $57,000, travel of approximately $16,000 and lease cancellation charges of approximately $11,000. At December 31, 2000 all restructuring accruals related to the Morgan Hill closure have been utilized. In December 2000, the Company's Board of Directors determined that to significantly reduce the Company's cost structure it would close its Wilmington, MA facility, reduce personnel and relocate to a significantly smaller facility during the first quarter of 2001. As such, restructuring charges of $522,000 were recorded in the forth quarter of 2000. Planned expenses are comprised of expenses related to the reduction of 16 employees in the areas of operations, customer support and finance of approximately $153,000 and equipment and lease abandonment charges of approximately $389,000. At December 31, 2000 $153,000 of restructuring reserves remained primarily related to personnel benefits associated with scheduled staffing reductions. Write-Down of Capitalized Software In the fourth quarter of 2000, the Company learned that both previously disclosed and undisclosed OEMs were significantly reducing their 2001 sales forecast for the set top box arena citing a slower than expected adoption of Internet appliances for the home. The Company's recently developed ASICs, including the FS450 and a previously unannounced chip, both were designed for this market. To date, sales of ASICs for the Internet appliance market have not been significant. In assessing the recoverability of its capitalized software, the Company considered anticipated future gross revenues, estimated economic life, and changes in software and hardware technologies. Based on those factors, the Company reduced the carrying value of its capitalized software by $2,289,000. Impairment of Goodwill In the fourth quarter of 2000, the Company wrote-off $63,000 of the remaining goodwill associated with Digital Vision, Inc. ("Digital Vision".) The Company had acquired Digital Vision on March 31, 1998 to obtain its TV-to-PC product line. Upon evaluation of the product line, the Company deemed that only two products warranted inclusion in its product portfolio. However, these products were not widely accepted by the Company's customer base due to significant competition, limited product features, and a cost structure that exceed many of the competing products. In addition, no proprietary technology was acquired with this acquisition. Focus wrote-off approximately $1,070,000 of impaired goodwill relating to Digital Vision in 1998. The determination was made to write-off the remaining balance as all product associated with this acquisition was completely liquidated in the fourth quarter. Interest Expense, Net Net interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2000 was $268,000, or 2% of net revenues, as compared to $531,000, or 3% of net revenues, for the year ended December 31, 1999, a decrease of $263,000 or 50%. The decrease in interest expense is primarily attributable to a decrease in interest bearing obligations. For the year ended December 31, 2000, the Company recorded interest expense of $150,000 as a result of delays in registering AMRO Investment International's 1,400,000 shares which were issued in connection with a private placement in which the Company received gross proceeds of $1,500,000. The Company expects to incur expenses of $30,000 per month until the shares are registered. Other Income For the year ended December 31, 2000, the Company had other income of $82,000 or 1% of net revenues as compared to other income of $138,000 or 1% of net revenues for the year ended December 31, 1999, a decrease of $56,000. Legal Judgment Expense In connection with a suit brought by CRA Systems, Inc., a Texas corporation, against the Company, a jury trial in May 2000 in federal district court in Waco, Texas, resulted in a verdict in favor of CRA for $848,000 actual damages and $1,000,000 punitive damages. On January 3, 2002, the U.S. Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals upheld the judgment in favor of CRA for actual damages, punitive damages, attorney's fees, costs, and interest. In connection with this judgment, the Company recorded an expense of $2,147,722 in the period ended September 30, 2000. See "Legal Proceedings-CRA Systems, Inc." on page 28. 17 Gain on Securities Available for Sale During June and July 1999, the Company sold the 189,701 shares of AESP common stock. The Company received gross proceeds of approximately $329,000 and recognized a gain of approximately $80,000 on the transaction. Focus had no such transactions in 2000. Special Investigation In March 2000, the Company's independent auditors, Wolf & Company, P.C., brought to the attention of the Board certain matters relating to the Company's financial controls. The Board of Directors thereafter formed a special committee to investigate. The special committee engaged the law firm of Foley, Hoag & Eliot LLP, which engaged the accounting firm of Arthur Andersen LLP to aid in the investigation. Based upon its investigation, the committee has concluded that, despite his denials, an accounting manager in the Company's finance department misstated the inventory records of the Company's Pro AV series for purposes of presentation to the Company's outside auditors in connection with the audit for the year ended December 31, 1999. A revised inventory list for the Pro AV series as of December 31, 1999 was compiled in connection with the special committee's review and has been subject to audit tests performed by Wolf & Company, P.C. as part of its year end audit of the financial statements of the Company as a whole. As such, management believes that inventory has been properly presented as of December 31, 1999 and no adjustments appeared to be necessary to prior periods. The accounting manager in question has been discharged. As a result of the Committee's investigation, the Company incurred accounting fees of approximately $302,000 and legal fees of approximately $292,000 in conjunction with the completion of the 1999 annual audit, review of accounting practices and the special investigation conducted by the Board of Directors. Liquidity and Capital Resources Since inception, the Company has financed its operations primarily through the public and private sale of common stock, proceeds from the exercise of options and warrants, short-term borrowing from private lenders, and favorable credit arrangements with vendors and suppliers. Net cash used in operating activities for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999 was $2,455,000 and $753,000, respectively. In 2000, net cash used in operating activities consisted primarily of the net loss of $12,029,000, adjusted for depreciation and amortization and the write-down of capitalized software offset by a decrease in accounts receivable of $1,134,000, a decrease in inventory of $1,494,000 and an increase in accrued liabilities of $1,163,000. The decrease in accounts receivable is primarily due to lower sales of $1,738,000 between the fourth quarter of 2000 and 1999. The increase in accrued liabilities is primarily related to an increase in legal and restructuring reserves as well as a reserve for a purchase commitment obligation. In 1999, net cash used in operating activities consisted principally of the net loss of $1,480,000, increase in accounts receivable of $360,000, and a decrease in accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $1,854,000 offset principally by depreciation of $557,000 and a decrease in inventory of $2,360,000. In addition, the Company issued common stock for services and debt of $159,000 and recognized a gain on the sale of securities of $80,000 and previously deferred income of $84,000. Net cash used in investing activities for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999 was $2,081,000 and $2,110,000, respectively. In 2000, cash used in investing activities consisted primarily of the purchase of property and equipment of $159,000, additions to capitalized software of $1,193,000 and increases in certificate of deposits of $729,000. In 1999, cash used in investing activities consisted primarily of the purchase of property and equipment of $513,000 and additions to capitalized software of $1,644,000, increases in certificate of deposits of $281,000, offset by proceeds received from the sale of securities available for sale of $329,000 Net cash from financing activities for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999 was $1,152,000 and $5,471,000, respectively. In 2000, the Company received $1,284,000 in net proceeds from private offerings of Common Stock and $1,121,000 from the exercise of common stock options and warrants. The proceeds in 2000 were offset by $1,123,000 in payments on notes payable and payments made under capital lease obligations of $129,000. In 1999, the Company received $4,414,000 in net proceeds from private offerings of Common Stock and $2,596,000 from the exercise of common stock options and warrants, and repayment of a note receivable for common stock of $316,000. The proceeds in 1999 were offset by $1,721,000 in payments on notes payable, and payments made under capital lease obligations of $134,000. As of December 31, 2000, the Company had working capital of $224,000 as compared to working capital of $5,633,000 at December 31, 1999, a decrease of $5,857,000. The Company's cash and certificates of deposit were $1,615,000 at December 31, 2000, compared to $4,271,000, at December 31, 1999. 18 See also "Comparison of Operating Results for the Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2001 and 2000 - Liquidity and Capital Resources" beginning on page 13. Common Stock Transactions The tables on pages 20 and 21 set forth equity issuances by Focus during the nine months ended September 30, 2001 and the two years ended December 31, 2000. On April 27, 2000, the Board of Directors approved the establishment of the 2000 Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan. The Focus stockholders approved the plan on January 11, 2001. A total of 5,000,000 shares are reserved for issuance under the 2000 Plan of which 3,011,915 had been granted as of January 16, 2002. In 2000, the Board of Directors approved, an increase in the authorized shares of common stock to 50,000,000 shares. The stockholders of Focus approved the increase on January 11, 2001. We maintain incentive stock option plans for all employees and directors. Management believes that these plans provide long term incentives to employees and directors and promote longevity of service. Focus prices issued options at the closing market price of its common stock on the date of the option issuance. On September 1, 1998, we re-priced all employee and director options under all plans to $1.22 per share for those options priced in excess of this value. This price represented the closing market price of our common stock on September 1, 1998. Although we have been successful in the past in raising sufficient capital to fund its operations, there can be no assurance that we will achieve sustained profitability or obtain sufficient financing in the future to provide the liquidity necessary for us to continue operations. Private Placement On January 11, 2002, we sold in a private placement, 2,434,490 shares of our common stock to four investors for gross proceeds of $2,750,000 and net proceeds of approximately $2,450,000. In connection with the private placement, we also issued warrants to purchase 367,140 shares of common stock at $1.36 per share. The tables on the next pages do not reflect such private placement. See "The Offering" and "Selling Stockholders" beginning on pages 44 and 45. 19

Our business does not experience substantial variations in revenues or operating income during the year due to seasonality. Certain Factors That May Affect Future Results We do not provide forecasts of our future financial performance. However, from time to time, information provided by us or statements made by our employees may contain "forward looking" information that involve risks and uncertainties. In particular, statements contained in this prospectus which are not historical facts (including, but not limited to, statements concerning international revenues, anticipated operating expense levels and such expense levels relative to our total revenues) constitute forward looking statements and are made under the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Our actual results of operations and financial condition have varied and may in the future vary significantly from those stated in any forward looking statements. Factors that may cause such differences include, without limitation, the availability of capital to fund our future cash needs, reliance on major customers, history of operating losses, limited availability of capital under credit arrangements with lenders, market acceptance of our products, technological obsolescence, competition, component supply problems and protection of proprietary information, as well as the accuracy of our internal estimates of revenue and operating expense levels. Recent Accounting Pronouncements Effective January 1, 2001, we adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133 (SFAS 133), "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." SFAS 133 requires the recognition of all derivatives in the balance sheet as either an asset or a liability measured at fair value. The adoption of SFAS 133 did not have an impact on our financial statements. We currently do not utilize derivative financial instruments in its operating activities nor do we use them for trading or speculative purposes. In June 1999, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 137, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities--Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 133." This statement amended the effective date of SFAS 133. SFAS 133 will now be effective for financial statements issued for all fiscal quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. The adoption of this pronouncement did not have a material impact on our results of operations, financial position or liquidity. During the second quarter of 2000, we adopted the Securities and Exchange Commission's Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101 ("SAB 101"). SAB 101 provided guidance on the recognition, presentation, and disclosure of revenue in financial statements. The adoption of this pronouncement did not have a material impact on our results of operations, financial position or liquidity for the years ended December 31, 2000 or 1999. In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 141, Business Combinations and SFAS No.142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. SFAS No. 141 requires that all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 be accounted for under the purchase method and addresses the initial recognition and measurement of goodwill and other intangible assets acquired in a business combination. SFAS No. 142 addresses the initial recognition and measurement of intangible assets acquired outside of a business combination and the accounting for goodwill and other intangible assets subsequent to their acquisition. SFAS No. 142 provides that intangible assets with finite useful lives be amortized and that goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives will not be amortized, but will rather be tested at least annually for impairment. We will adopt SFAS No. 142 for our fiscal year beginning January 1, 2002. Upon adoption of SFAS 142, we will stop the amortization of goodwill with an expected net carrying value of $4,380,962 at the date of adoption and annual amortization of approximately $1,568,400 that resulted from business combinations completed prior to the adoption of SFAS 141. In August, 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets." SFAS No. 144 supersedes SFAS No. 121 "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of " SFAS No. 144 applies to all long-lived assets (including discontinued operations) and consequently amends APB Opinion No. 30, "Reporting the Results of Operations, Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions." SFAS No. 144 develops one accounting model for long-lived assets that are to be disposed of by sale. SFAS No. 144 requires that long-lived assets that are to be disposed of by sale be measured at the lower of book value or fair value less cost to sell. Additionally SFAS No. 144 expands the scope of discontinued operations to include all components of an entity with operations that (1) can be distinguished from the rest of the entity and (2) will be eliminated from the ongoing operations of the entity in a disposal transaction. SFAS No. 144 is effective for all financial statements issued in 2002. The adoption of SFAS No. 144 is not expected to have a material impact on our financial statements. 22 INFORMATION ABOUT FOCUS The Business Founded in 1991, we internally develop proprietary technology for the video scan conversion and enhancement of PC and Macintosh output for display on televisions and large-screen monitors, and market and sell, worldwide, a line of video conversion products using this technology. These video conversion products range from custom-designed video co-processor chips, used by leading Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs), to computer peripherals marketed to consumers directly and through a global network of value-added resellers (VARs), distributors and retailers. OEMs are entities that utilize our technology in developing their products. For example, Apple, Sony, PictureTel, Philips Consumer Electronics, and Thomson Consumer Electronics, as OEMs, will incorporate components from manufacturers like us into their products. In a 1999 independent survey by Frost & Sullivan, we were recognized as an industry leader in the development and marketing of PC-to-TV video conversion products that make personal computers "TV ready" and televisions "PC ready". Frost & Sullivan's December 1999 survey gave Focus a 50% market share with the next competitor at 32%. We believe the smaller competitors such as Aitech and ADS Technologies have moved away from the scan conversion business to focus on USB peripherals. In the scan conversion chip business, we have what we believe to be the two largest of three potential contracts with the US TV manufacturers. Its FS400 chip is used by all but one major competitor for their products which are primarily distributed in the international market. These competitors include: Furthertech, Grandtec and Deltron. In the videoconferencing market, the two largest companies, PictureTel and Polycom, distribute our professional and consumer scan converters exclusively. Furthermore, PictureTel integrates our FS400 chip into its mid-range systems. We have sought to solidify our leadership position through: o Continued and development investment, resulting in additional patents being awarded to Focus, and in what are believed to be industry-wide recognition of the superior video quality of our products, o new licensing agreements with OEMs for use of our proprietary TV video conversion ASIC chips in current and future product designs, and o new strategic alliances with major OEMs, resellers and national retail chains. Furthermore, some of our recent product accomplishments include: o We introduced the FS400 chip family in December of 1999. o We introduced the FS400 Internet chip family in May 2000 which is the first to support XGA and we believe has higher video quality than products offered by our two primary competitors: Chrontel and Conexant. The chip was designed under a confidential agreement with a major semiconductor manufacturer. o We completed a custom designed set-top box chip for a major semiconductor manufacturer under a confidential agreement. The FS461 chip was publicly released in May 2001. Our executive offices are located 1370 Dell Avenue, Campbell, CA 95008-6604 and our research and development center is located at 22867 Northwest Bennett Rd. Suite 120, Hillsboro, Oregon 97124. Focus' general telephone number is (408) 866-8300, and our Worldwide Web address is http://www.Focusinfo.com. Information contained on the Website is not part of this document. Business Strategy In 2000, we continued to concentrate on the OEM and Professional products groups. Our ASIC chip products are targeted for the scan conversion, commercial television, video conferencing and set top boxes for the cable, Internet appliance, gaming, and home gateway industries. These are industries that require the best video conversion technology available in the market. The Focus FS400 series of ASICs has patented designs that dramatically improve video quality while reducing cost for these industries. We continue to design complete products for the professional audio video and home theater markets using our proprietary software and ASIC designs to deliver feature rich products to the market. During the year ended December 31, 2000, we only had operations in the United States. During the year ended December 31, 1999, we had operations in the United States and in the Netherlands. On July 1, 1999, we closed our foreign subsidiary and on August 15, 1999 dissolved this entity. Sales to a major distributor as of December 31, 2000 and 1999 represented approximately $2,242,000 or 15% and $4,318,000 or 25% of our revenues, respectively. 23 The following table summarizes revenue by geographic area: For The Year Ended December 31, ------------------------------- 2000 1999 ----------- ----------- United States $14,365,000 $16,425,000 North America (excluding the United States) 39,000 54,000 Europe 738,000 396,000 Asia 91,000 308,000 ----------- ----------- Total $15,233,000 $17,183,000 =========== =========== Acquisition of Videonics Inc. On January 16, 2001, Focus Enhancements, Inc., acquired all the shares of Videonics, Inc. in a transaction accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. We issued 0.87 shares of Focus common stock for each issued and outstanding share of Videonics common stock on the closing date. Based on the exchange ratio, a total of approximately 5,135,000 shares were issued. We incurred approximately $637,000 in acquisition expenses, including financial advisory and legal fees and other direct transaction costs, which were included as a component of the purchase price. Videonics, a California corporation organized in 1986, was, and now as part of Focus, is a leader in the design, development, manufacture, and sale of affordable, high quality, real time, digital video post-production equipment. Videonics' products process, edit, and mix raw video footage as well as enhance such footage with audio, special effects, and titles, resulting in professional quality video production. Videonics equipment is used throughout the world in the production of videos. Videonics' products incorporate general-purpose computers, special-purpose microprocessor-based systems, and internally developed application specific integrated circuits ("ASICs") with digital signal processing ("DSP") and other capabilities. It also implements much of its products' functionality in software. We believe that these proprietary technologies provide the infrastructure to develop a broad array of video post-production solutions. By reducing the cost of high performance post-production equipment, Videonics is making post-production capabilities available to an expanding market of potential users. The merger provides us with an opportunity to take advantage of the complementary strategic fit of the Focus and Videonics businesses, combining operations to create a unique commercial entity in the market for video products and technologies. In addition, certain new application specific integrated circuits ("ASICs") currently under development by our engineering team have integrated video mixing and switching technology. We believe that the combined engineering teams can capitalize on this chip technology to build attractively priced digital video solutions for an expanded customer base. In accordance with our restructuring plan, we have significantly reduced post merger staffing in the areas of operations, customer support and finance as all the functions have been consolidated into Videonics' Campbell, California facility. We negotiated an early release from our lease of a 22,000 square foot facility located in Wilmington, Massachusetts and have since moved remaining Massachusetts' sales personnel into a 2,800 square foot facility located in Chelmsford, Massachusetts. Research And Development We continue to invest heavily in research and development. Of the $2.5 million invested on research and development in 2000, approximately 75% was in ASIC chip development and support activities, with the remainder to support new products for the professional and home theater markets. Marketing And Sales Strategy We believe we have vigorously pursued the OEM market for its technology in 2000, resulting in numerous agreements with some of what we believe to be the most significant names in the United States and global TV, PC, Video Conferencing, and Internet appliance markets. In 2001 we continued to concentrate our marketing efforts toward those OEMs which we believe dominate their respective markets, and which we believe have the manufacturing, sales and distribution networks in place to capitalize on the growth forecasted for the TV-to-PC conversion products over the next decade. The Professional market continues to be a growing segment, and we believe we have made significant inroads into that market in 2000. In September 2000, we unveiled our new TView QuadScan Pro, a cost-effective, high- resolution line quadrupler/video scaler at the CEDIA Expo '00. The QuadScan is being marketed for professional AV applications, as well as for home theater 24 use. We also expanded our presence in the Videoconferencing and Education markets through the introduction of the Pro AV 1600 product family. Furthermore, we recruited more than 250 dealers in 2000 to distribute these products. While we believe that the OEM market offers the best potential for future growth, we recognize the consumer channel, through its reseller distribution network, is a substantial, revenue-generating market. We continue to offer cooperative advertising incentives to resellers on a percentage-of-product-purchases basis. Funded programs include sales incentives, special pricing programs, and targeted advertising campaigns. Distribution We have made investments over the last several years in creating a global reseller/VAR channel. In the United States and Canada, we market and sell our products through o national resellers such as CompUSA, Micro Center, Fry's Electronics, and J&R Music World; o national distributors such as Ingram Micro, D&H Distributing and Academic Distributing; and o third-party mail order resellers such as MicroWarehouse, Multiple Zones, PC Connection and CDW. In the rest of the world, our products are sold to resellers, independent mail order companies and distributors in Latin America, France, the United Kingdom, Scandinavia, Germany, Switzerland, Italy, Australia, Japan, China, Singapore, and the Republic of Korea. Products And Applications We develop internally all of our PC-to-TV video conversion products, both external boxes and ASICs, thereby allowing us to market and sell a proprietary group of products to the PC-to-TV video conversion marketplace. Our products are compatible with both Windows and Mac OS personal computers. Our products allow PC owners to utilize any television as a large screen computer display for use in presentations, training, education, video conferencing, Internet viewing and home gaming. Our primary focus within the video/graphics category is in the conversion of standard PC video output (VGA) into television video input (NTSC or PAL). Focus' broad line of PC-to-TV products easily allows the user to display Windows or Mac OS video output directly to a standard television or to videotape. We currently sell our PC-to-TV video conversion products under the TView brand. These products have a variety of features geared toward the needs of business, education and consumer customer groups. We have developed various proprietary enhancements for PC- to-TV products including image stabilization, which eliminates all flicker, and TrueScale video compression technology which ensures proper aspect ratios on the television screen even when a computer image is compressed to fit on a television. Consumer PC-to-TV Video Scan Conversion Products External Set-Top Boxes. We currently offer four models of external set-top boxes under the TView brand. Focus sells the TView Micro XGA, the TView Silver, the TView Gold, and the iTView DV, all of which are compatible with both Windows- and Mac OS-based personal computers. All the external set-top boxes weigh less than seven ounces, and are easily connected to the VGA video port of the computer and a television through the cables provided. Internal Card Focus. We offer a PCI card under the TView brand that provides PC-to-TV conversion capabilities to desktop computer users. Sold as the TView Gold PCI Card, this card fits into any computer with a PCI card slot. The TView Gold PCI Card permits the user to make presentations on any television. Commercial PC-to-TV Video Scan Conversion Products Internal Board Level Products for PCs and TVs. "Internal Board Level" products are printed circuit board products designed for each OEM's custom requirements. For those environments where portability is less important, such as classrooms or home entertainment systems, we offer board level products that can be installed directly into a personal computer or television. We currently offers board level products for OEM televisions and medical imaging. Professional PC-to-TV Video Scan Conversion Products Our TView Pro AV products are high-end video conversion devices marketed to professional broadcast studios, post production houses, video conferencing rooms and presentation markets. Focus offers each of its professional products in desktop, rackmount, and board-level forms. The TView Pro AV products are among the most advanced broadcast-quality conversion products in the marketplace. These products allow the user to take any high-resolution computer image and project it onto any compatible NTSC/PAL display or VCR or over a videoconference link. The QuadScan is a line Quadrupler/Scaler that eliminates visible scan lines and flicker from standard video for the home theater/professional video markets. 25 Video Scan Conversion Integrated-Circuit Products (ASICs) We currently offer three families of integrated circuits. The FS300 family of ASICs was developed for both consumer and commercial applications. The FS300 was our third generation PC-to-TV video encoder designed to increase video conversion capabilities while reducing the cost of ASICs manufacturing. The FS300 supports resolutions of up to 1024 x 768 and features patented "video scaling" technology whereby the image on the television is scaled both horizontally and vertically to perfectly fit the entire contents of the computer screen on the TV. We also offer a fourth generation scan converter to advance the technology to optimize the image quality on a TV, the FS400 family. The FS400 family provides total compatibility with all computer systems up to very high resolution 2560 x 2048 displays, significantly improved TV image quality including an advanced sharpness-enhanced 2D flicker filter (patent pending), auto-sensing, sizing, and scaling for hands off TV operation, and advanced digital and progressive TV output modes. We also sell the FS400 digital video coprocessor. A version of the FS400 also supports DVD copy protection schemes with Macrovision encoding for DVD movie capable systems. The FS400 delivers all these features with lower power, lower cost, and a smaller package. The FS400 replaced the FS310 in the year 2000. Our FS450 family of ASICs is specifically designed for the growing Internet set top box market, information appliances, and TV enabled PCs. It utilizes the high quality output characteristics of the FS400 family with a low cost digital interface to most graphic ICs found in low cost PCs, set top boxes, and 3D graphic cards. It is in this area where we intend to concentrate our research and development efforts, furthering our core competency in this type of technology and expanding the application and use of video scan conversion to address digital television including HDTV, interactive television, information appliances, LCD panels and plasma display markets. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Comparison of Operating Results for the Years Ended December 31, 2000 and 1999 - Write-down of Capitalized Software" on page 17 for more information. PC-to-TV Video Scan Conversion Applications Television Display Device. The large-screen area of a TV monitor makes it an inexpensive way to present computer graphics and text to a large audience or classroom environment. Our products can be used with a TV monitor for presentations, education, training, video teleconferencing, Internet viewing, and video gaming applications. Presentations. Our TView products are ideal for sales and business presentations. In particular, because of the lightweight and small size of the products, they have been embraced by mobile presenters and sales forces as a cost-effective and space effective tool. Education and Training. In education, teachers and corporate trainers see the benefit of using computers in the classroom to create an interactive learning environment. Because TView products allow the use of one computer for multiple students, teachers and curriculum developers no longer need to be constrained in their use of computers for instructional purposes. Internet Viewing. TView products also take advantage of the rise in popularity of the Internet and the advent of Internet-related products for television. By allowing current PC owners to adapt their existing technology to display on a television, TView products bridge the gap between current and future Internet usage by offering the full functionality of a PC on a television. Video Gaming. TView products make the PC gaming experience larger than life by allowing users to play PC games on a television. By connecting a PC's sound and video ports to a television, the gaming enthusiast can share in the gaming experience with a group or simply play along with the impact of a big screen television. Print to Video. The TView systems will output the computer images directly to a VCR allowing for an inexpensive way to print anything created on a Windows or Mac OS personal computer to video tape. Mirroring Mode. Focus' proprietary technology allows the presenter to use the small computer screen as a mirroring console to the same images displayed on the larger TV monitor. Training of applications can be performed from the Windows or Mac OS personal computer while the audience observes the images on the TV monitor. Customer Support We believe that our future success will depend, in part, upon the continued strength of customer relationships. In an effort to ensure customer satisfaction, we currently provide customer service and technical support through a five-days-per-week "hot line" telephone service. We use 800 telephone numbers for customer service and a local telephone number for technical support (the customer pays for the phone charge on technical support). The customer service and support lines are currently staffed by technicians who provide advice free of charge to ensure customer satisfaction and obtain valuable feedback on new product concepts. In order to educate our telephone support personnel, we periodically conduct in-house training programs and seminars on new products and technology advances in the industry. 26 We offer this same level of support for our entire domestic market including direct market customers who purchase our products through computer superstores or system integrators. Internationally, we also provide technical support to international resellers and distributors who, in turn, give local support to their customers. We provide customers with a one- to three-year warranty on all products and will repair or replace a defective product still under warranty coverage. We return products with defective components to the component vendors for repair or replacement. Competition We currently compete with other developers of PC-to-TV conversion products and of videographic integrated circuits. Although we believe that we are a leader in the PC-to-TV conversion product marketplace, the video graphic integrated circuit market is intensely competitive and characterized by rapid technological innovations. This has resulted in new product introductions over relatively short time periods with frequent advances in price/performance ratios. Competitive factors in these markets include product performance, functionality, product quality and reliability, as well as volume pricing discounts, customer service, customer support, marketing capability, corporate reputation, brand recognition and increases in relative price/performance ratios for products serving these markets. In the PC-to-TV scan converter market, we competes with one primary competitor AVerMedia. In the video graphic integrated circuits market, we compete with Averlogic, AI Tech, TVIA, Conexant and Chrontel. Some of our competitors have greater technical and capital resources, more marketing experience, and larger research and development staffs than we have in the video graphic integrated circuits market. With an aggressive effort, our competitors could severely affect our business. We believe that we compete favorably on the basis of product quality and technical benefits and features. We also believe we provide competitive pricing, extended warranty coverage, and strong customer relationships, including selling, servicing and after-market support for the finished systems products. However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to compete successfully in the future against existing companies or new entrants to the marketplace. Manufacturing In the manufacture of our products, we rely primarily on turnkey subcontractors who utilize components purchased or specified by us. The "turnkey" house is responsible for component procurement, board level assembly, product assembly, quality control testing, final pack-out. During 2000, we relied on four turnkey manufacturers for approximately 90% of our manufacturing. Two manufacturers, based in Taiwan, supply set top box finished products. One manufacturer in Korea provides 100% of our ASIC production. One manufacturer in California supplies our professional products. For certain commercial PC-to-TV video conversion products, turnkey manufacturers ship directly to the OEM customer and forward-shipping information to us for billing. Quality control is maintained through standardized quality assurance practices at the build site and random testing of finished products as they arrive at our fulfillment center. Management believes that the turnkey model helps us to lower inventory and staff requirements, maintain better quality control, product flexibility, achieve quicker product turns and improved cash flow. All customer returns are processed by is in our fulfillment center. Upon receipt of a returned product, a trained technician tests the product to diagnose the problem. If a product is found to be defective the unit is either returned to the turnkey subcontractor for rework and repair or is repaired by us and returned to the customer. The majority of defective product returns are repaired or replaced and returned to customers within five business days. Intellectual Property And Proprietary Rights As of September 30, 2001, we had five patents pending and three patents issued. We have also filed applications to register eight trademarks to add to its two currently registered trademarks. Historically, we have relied principally upon a combination of copyrights, common law trademarks and trade secret laws to protect the proprietary rights to products that we market under the FOCUS and TView brand names. Upon joining us, employees and consultants are required to execute agreements providing for the non-disclosure of confidential information and the assignment of proprietary know-how and inventions developed on our behalf. In addition, we seek to protect trade secrets and know-how through contractual restrictions with vendors and certain large customers. There can be no assurance that these measures will adequately protect the confidentiality of our proprietary information or that others will not independently develop products or technology that are equivalent or superior to ours. Because of the rapid pace of technological innovation in our markets, management believes that Focus' success must generally rely upon the creative skills and experience of our employees, the frequency of new product offerings and 27 enhancements, product pricing and performance features, a diversified marketing strategy, and the quality and reliability of support services. Personnel As of September 30, 2001, we employed 93 people on a full-time basis, of whom 29 are in research and development, 23 in marketing and sales, 8 in customer support, 24 in operations, and 9 in finance and administration. Backlog At September 30, 2001, we had a backlog of approximately $150,000 for products ordered by customers as compared to a backlog of $496,000 at December 31, 2000, an decrease of $346,000 or 70%. We do not believe backlog for products ordered by customers is a meaningful indicator of sales that can be expected for a particular time period since the order patterns of our customers in the past have demonstrated that backlog is episodic. Description of Property As of December 31, 2000, we leased approximately 30,000 square feet of space at four locations. At such date, we leased approximately 22,000 square feet of space at $16,380 per month in Wilmington, Massachusetts, which was used for administration, sales, marketing, customer service, limited assembly, quality control, packaging and shipping. This lease was scheduled to expire in February 2004. On March 31, 2001, we were released from that Wilmington lease obligation and entered into a new lease for 2,800 square feet of property in Chelmsford, Massachusetts. The new lease commenced on April 1, 2001 and is for a term of 36 months. We lease additional space in the following locations: Orinda, California and Beaverton, Oregon. The Orinda facility is mainly used for research and development with approximately 500 square feet at $950 per month. The Beaverton facility is mainly used for research and development, with approximately 7,400 square feet at $7,168 per month and expires October 31, 2005. The Company believes that its existing facilities are adequate to meet current requirements and that it can readily obtain appropriate additional space as may be required on comparable terms. See "Note 17 - Subsequent Event - Acquisition of Videonics Inc." on page F-24. Legal Proceedings Class Action Suit. We and one of our directors were named as defendants in a securities class action pending in United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts. The complaint includes a class of stockholders who purchased Focus shares during the July 17, 1997 to February 19, 1999 period (C.A. No. 99-12344-DPW). The complaint was initially filed in November of 1999 and has been amended several times. The complaint purports to allege violations of the federal securities laws and seeks unspecified monetary damages. Defendants moved to dismiss the action. The Federal District Court granted certain portions of our motion to dismiss and denied other portions, allowing the case to go forward into pretrial discovery as to certain matters. On or about December 7, 2001 the parties reached an agreement in principle to settle this case. The settlement is subject to the preparation of a settlement stipulation mutually satisfactory to all parties, and court approval, after notice to stockholders and a hearing. The settlement will be funded entirely by proceeds from defendants' insurance carrier. There can be no assurance, however, that the parties will eventually reach a settlement acceptable to all sides. CRA Systems, Inc. In 1996 we entered into an agreement with CRA Systems, Inc., a Texas corporation, the terms and nature of which were subsequently disputed by the parties. We contended that the transaction was simply a sale of inventory for which we were never paid. CRA contended otherwise. CRA brought suit against Focus and on September 21, 1998, filed in the 170th Judicial District Court of McLennon County, Texas (Case No. 98-3151-4) for breach of contract and other claims, contending that we grossly exaggerated the demand for the product and the margin of profit that was available to CRA regarding this project. CRA sought to recover out-of-pocket losses exceeding $100,000 and lost profits of $400,000 to $1,000,000. The case was removed to the US District Court for the Western District of Texas, Waco, Texas (Civil No. W-99-CA-031). A jury trial in May 2000 in that court resulted in a verdict in favor of CRA for $848,000 actual damages and $1,000,000 punitive damages. On October 10, 2000, the court rendered a judgment in favor of CRA for actual damages, punitive damages, attorney's fees, costs, and interest. In connection with this judgment, we recorded an expense of $2,147,722 in the period ended September 30, 2000. The court overruled the motion for new trial that we filed, and we appealed the judgment to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit in New Orleans, Louisiana. On October 27, 2000, we submitted a bond in the approximate amount of $2.3 million (being the approximate amount of the judgment plus 10% to cover interest and costs of CRA) and the U.S. District Court granted a stay of any enforcement of the judgment pending appeal. The Court of Appeals held oral argument on December 3, 2001. On January 3, 2002, the Court of Appeals affirmed the judgment awarded to CRA virtually in its entirety. We had already recorded a charge to operations to establish a legal reserve for such amount during the third quarter of 2000. 28 General. From time to time, we are involved in certain other claims and legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business of which, in the opinion of management, do not have a material adverse effect on our financial position or results of operation.

BASIS OF PRO FORMA PRESENTATION On August 30, 2000, Videonics agreed to merge with Focus, in a transaction accounted for as a purchase. The total purchase price of $9.1 million included consideration of 5.1 million shares of Focus common stock, the issuance of 1,134,249 Focus stock options valued at $1,089,879 in exchange for Videonics options and estimated direct transaction costs of $637,000. The merger was completed on January 16, 2001. The Focus Pro Forma Combined Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements provide for the exchange of 0.87 shares of Focus common stock for each outstanding share of Videonics common stock. The number of shares of Focus common stock issued were approximately 5,135,000 shares, adjusted for the cashing out of fractional shares. The average market price per share of Focus common stock of $1.55 is based on the average closing price for a range of trading days (August 28, 2000 through September 5, 2000) around the announcement date (August 31, 2000) of the merger. In addition, pursuant to the terms of the merger agreement Focus issued options to purchase 1,134,249 shares of Focus common stock at a weighted average exercise price of $1.07. The fair value of options issued less the intrinsic value of the unvested options, as well as estimated direct transaction expenses of $637,000, have been included as a part of the total estimated purchase cost. The total purchase cost of the Videonics merger is estimated as follows (in thousands): Value of common shares issued.......................... $7,960 Assumption of Videonics options........................ 498 Estimated transaction costs and expenses............... 637 ------ Total purchase cost.................................... $9,095 ====== The purchase price allocation is as follows (in thousands):
Annual Useful Amount Amortization lives ------ ------------ ----- Purchase Price Allocation: Tangible Assets................................ $ 3,533 n/a n/a Intangible assets acquired: Existing technology........................... 1,888 $ 472 4 years Assembled workforce........................... 899 300 3 years Tradename..................................... 176 44 4 years Goodwill...................................... 5,376 1,344 4 years In-process research and development........... 505 n/a n/a Long-term debt................................. (1,035) n/a n/a Other liabilities.............................. (2,247) n/a n/a Net estimated purchase price allocation........ $ 9,095 $ 2,160
The tangible net assets acquired represent the historical net assets of Videonics as of December 31, 2000, which approximated fair value. As required under purchase accounting, the assets and liabilities of Videonics have been adjusted to fair value. Focus performed an allocation of the total purchase price of Videonics to its individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Of the total purchase price, $505,000 has been allocated to in-process research and development and will be charged to expense in the period the transaction closes. Due to its non-recurring nature, the in-process research and development attributed to the Videonics transaction has been excluded from the pro forma statements of operations. However, it is reflected in the pro forma balance sheet. 40 NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF FOCUS AND VIDEONICS In addition to the value assigned to the in-process research and development projects, Videonics' tangible assets and specific intangible assets were identified and valued. The related amortization of the identifiable intangible assets is reflected as a pro forma adjustment to the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Statements of Operations. The identifiable intangible assets include existing technology, deferred compensation, tradename, and assembled workforce. A portion of the purchase price has been allocated to developed technology and in-process research and development ("IPRD"). Developed technology and IPRD were identified and valued by an independent appraiser through extensive interviews, analysis of data provided by the Videonics business concerning development projects, their stage of development, the time and resources needed to complete them, if applicable, their expected income generating ability and associated risks. The income approach, which includes an analysis of the cash flows, and risks associated with achieving such cash flows, was the primary technique utilized in valuing the developed technology and IPRD. Where development projects had reached technological feasibility, they were classified as developed technology and the value assigned to developed technology was capitalized. The developed technology is being amortized on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life of four years. Where the development projects had not reached technological feasibility and had no future alternative uses, they were classified as IPRD, which were expensed upon the consummation of the merger. The value was determined by estimating the expected cash flows from the projects once commercially viable, discounting the net cash flows back to their present value and then applying a percentage of completion to the calculated value as defined below. o Net cash flows. The net cash flows from the identified projects are based on estimates of revenue, cost of sales, research and development costs, selling, general and administrative costs and income taxes from those projects. These estimates are based on the assumptions mentioned below. The research and development costs included in the model reflect costs to sustain projects, but exclude costs to bring in-process projects to technological feasibility. The estimated revenue is based on projections of Videonics business for each in-process project. These projections are based on its estimates of market size and growth, expected trends in technology and the nature and expected timing of new product introductions by the Videonics business and its competitors. Projected gross margins and operating expenses approximate the Videonics business' recent historical levels. o Discount rate. The discount rate employed in valuing the developed, core and in process technologies range from 15% to 25% and are consistent with the implied transaction discount rate. A higher discount rate was used in valuing the IPRD, due to inherent uncertainties surrounding the successful development of the IPRD, market acceptance of the technology, the useful life of such technology and the uncertainty of technological advances which could potentially impact the estimates described above. o Percentage of completion. The percentage of completion for each project was determined using costs incurred to date on each project as compared to the remaining research and development to be completed to bring each project to technological feasibility. The percentage of completion varied by individual project ranging from 10% to 75%. If the projects discussed above are not successfully developed, the sales and profitability of the combined company may be adversely affected in future periods. The acquired assembled workforce is comprised of manufacturing, research and development and sales, general and administrative employees. The value of the assembled workforce was derived by estimating the costs to replace the existing employees, including recruiting, hiring and training costs for each category of employee. The value of the assembled workforce is being amortized on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life of three years. 41 NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF FOCUS AND VIDEONICS The Videonics tradename has been in use for over 13 years. Following the merger, certain of Videonics' products will continue to be sold under the Videonics tradename. Videonics is known as a leading provider of digital video products throughout the world. In estimating the value of the tradename, the relief from royalty method was employed. The relief from royalty method is based on the assumption that in lieu of ownership, a firm would be willing to pay a royalty in order to exploit the related benefits of the assets. Therefore, a portion of Focus' earnings, equal to the after-tax royalty that would have been paid for the use of the trademark and tradename, can be attributed to Focus' possession of the trademark and tradename. The trademark and tradename are each being amortized on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life of four years. Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the underlying net identifiable assets. 2. PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS The Focus Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements give effect to the allocation of the total purchase cost to the assets and liabilities of Videonics based on their respective fair values and to amortization of the fair value over the respective useful lives. The pro forma combined provision (benefit) for income taxes does not represent the amounts that would have resulted had Focus and Videonics filed consolidated income tax returns during the periods presented. The following pro forma adjustments have been made to the unaudited pro forma combined condensed consolidated financial statements: (A) To record the estimated fair value of intangible assets as described in Note 1. Includes the following: Existing technology............... $ 1,888,000 Assembled workforce............... 899,000 Tradename......................... 176,000 Goodwill.......................... 3,450,000 ------------ Total........................ $ 6,413,000 ============ (B) To reflect estimated direct transaction expenses of $637,000. (C) To eliminate the historical common stock account of Videonics and to record the par value of common stock of $51,000 to be issued upon the closing of the merger. (D) To record the anticipated value of 5.1 million shares of Focus's common stock valued at approximately $7,960,000 (reduced by the par value of such stock of $51,000) and the assumption of the outstanding Videonics options valued at approximately $1,089,000. (E) To eliminate the historical accumulated deficit account of Videonics. (F) To record the in-process research and development of $505,000, which is treated as an expense and therefore increases the accumulated deficit. (G) To record deferred compensation of $591,000 related to the unvested options assumed in the merger. (H) To record the amortization of identifiable intangible assets and goodwill related to the acquisition of Videonics as if the transaction occurred January 1, 2000. (I) To record the amortization expense associated with the deferred compensation related to unvested options totaling $295,000 for the twelve month period. 42 NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF FOCUS AND VIDEONICS Deferred tax assets totaling $1.2 million associated with non-goodwill intangibles was recorded but was offset completely by a $1.2 million increase in the valuation allowance against deferred tax assets. The pro forma combined consolidated financial statements include a non-recurring expense arising from a $2.1 million judgement rendered on October 10, 2000 against Focus and in favor of CRA Systems Inc. See "Information About Focus - Legal Proceedings - CRA Systems, Inc." on page 28. 3. PRO FORMA NET LOSS PER SHARE The pro forma basic and dilutive net loss per share are based on the weighted average number of shares of pro forma Focus common stock outstanding during each period plus the shares assumed to be issued in exchange for the outstanding shares of Videonics. Dilutive securities including the replacement Videonics options are not included in the computation of pro forma dilutive net loss per share as their effect would be anti-dilutive. 4. RECLASSIFICATIONS OF CERTAIN EXPENSES Certain expenses in the periods ending December 31, 2000, have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications did not change the net loss for the period ending December 31, 2000. 43 The Offering Set forth below is a summary of the shares of our common stock being offered by the selling stockholders discussed in this prospectus and the effect of the sale of such shares on the total number of our outstanding shares of common stock. o Common stock offered by Euston Investments that it may purchase by exercise of a stock purchase warrant received in connection with the canceled equity line of credit. 250,000 shares o Common stock offered by AMRO International that it received in a private placement and for late registration. 1,058,138 shares o Common stock offered by AMRO International that it may purchase by exercise of a stock purchase warrant received in connection with a private placement. 140,000 shares o Common stock offered by Red & White Enterprises that it received as partial payment for the sale of PC Video Conversion in 1998. 468,322 shares o Common stock offered by vFinance.com, Inc. or its affiliate Critical Infrastructure LP that vFinance Capital L.C. received for investment banking services and Union Atlantic L.C. received for consulting services to Focus. 370,332 shares o Common stock offered by vFinance Capital L.C. or Messrs.

As part of the Separation Agreement which terminated Mr. Wood's employment agreement, Mr. Wood remained a consultant until an upgrade to one of the our Pro AV products was completed. We signed a debt conversion agreement with Steve Wood and Red & White Enterprises, Inc., a California corporation, on July 17, 2000, for the issuance of our common stock in lieu of cash payment under a secured promissory note held by Red & White Enterprises. Steve Wood is the sole stockholder of Red & White Enterprises and a former employee of Focus. Red & White Enterprises, f/k/a PC Video Conversion, Inc., obtained the promissory note from Focus in exchange for certain assets and liabilities of PC Video Conversion, which Focus purchased in July 1998. In connection with the Separation Agreement, on January 24, 2001, Red & White Enterprises exercised its right to convert approximately $427,437, the remaining balance of the note was converted into 468,322 shares of our common stock. These shares are covered by this prospectus. The conversion price was 93% of the average closing prices for the five day period after our stockholders approved on January 11, 2001 an increase in our authorized shares. 47 Purchase Commitment Electronic Support Products. We entered into a master purchase agreement with Advanced Electronic Support Products, Inc. ("AESP") whereby we agreed to purchase a minimum of $2,500,000 of cables and other products from AESP by March 29, 2001. In return, we received certain pricing commitments over the term of the master purchase agreement. The agreement provided that in the event we did not purchase at least $2,500,000 of cables and other products during the term of the master purchase agreement, Focus would pay AESP an amount equal to 20% of the difference between $2,500,000 and the aggregate amount of purchases. The agreement allowed us and our subcontractors to purchase product from other sources if AESP's pricing or quality did not meet certain competitive levels and that such purchases would reduce the minimum requirements under the agreement. We failed to meet the minimum purchase requirements and there were some disputes between the parties under the agreement. At March 31, 2001, we had accrued expenses of $225,000 for the AESP agreement. As settlement, in exchange for a release from AESP of us from further liability under the contract, we issued 150,000 shares of our common stock to AESP on June 27, 2001. AESP is a public company whose shares trade in the Nasdaq Small Cap Market under the symbol "AESP." According to filings made with the SEC, Messrs. Slav Stein (CEO of AESP) and Roman Briskin (Executive VP of AESP) each own 29.3% of AESP. Material Relationships Except as discussed in this prospectus, the selling stockholders have not held any positions or offices or had material relationships with us or any of our affiliates within the past three years other than as a result of the ownership of our common stock. Timothy Mahoney, a partner with vFinance Capital, LC, is on Focus' Board of Directors, and Steve Wood was formerly employed by Focus as Vice President of Pro A/V. See "Directors and Executive Officers - Certain Relationships and Related Transactions" on page 35. PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION General All selling stockholders are offering the common shares for their own account, and not for our account. We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of common shares by the selling stockholders except for: o funds received in the cash exercise of warrants. The selling stockholders may be offering for sale up to 5,308,422 common shares acquired by them pursuant to the terms of the various agreements more fully described under the sections above entitled "The Offering" and "Selling Stockholders." To permit the selling stockholders to resell the common shares issued to them pursuant to their agreements, we agreed to register those shares and to maintain that registration. To that end, we have agreed with the selling stockholders that we will prepare and file such amendments and supplements to the registration statement and the prospectus as may be necessary in accordance with the Securities Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, to keep it effective until the earliest of any of the following dates: o the date after which all of the common shares held by the selling stockholders or their transferees that are covered by the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part have been sold under the provisions of Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933; o the date after which all of the common shares held by the selling stockholders or their transferees that are covered by the registration statement have been transferred to persons who may trade such shares without restriction under the Securities Act of 1933 and we have delivered new certificates or other evidences of ownership of such common shares without any restrictive legend; o the date after which all of the common shares held by the selling stockholders or their transferees that are covered by the registration statement have been sold by the selling stockholders or their transferees pursuant to such registration statement; o the date after which all of the common shares held by the selling stockholders or their transferees that are covered by the registration statement may be sold, in the opinion of our counsel, under Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933 irrespective of any applicable volume limitations; o the date after which all of the common shares held by the selling stockholders or their transferees that are covered by the registration statement may be sold, in the opinion of our counsel, without any time, volume or manner limitations under Rule 144(k) or similar provision then in effect under the Securities Act of 1933; or 48 o the date after the selling stockholders that are covered by the registration statement no longer hold shares of our common stock or securities convertible to our common stock. Shares of common stock offered through this prospectus may be sold from time to time by vFinance Capital and the other selling stockholders or by pledgees, donees, transferees or other successors in interest to the other selling stockholders. If permitted by agreement, we will supplement this prospectus to disclose the names of any pledges, donees, transferees or other successors in interest that intend to offer common stock through this prospectus. Sales may be made on The Nasdaq SmallCap Market, on the over-the-counter market or otherwise at prices and at terms then prevailing or at prices related to the then current market price, or in negotiated private transactions, or in a combination of these methods. The selling stockholders will act independently of us in making decisions with respect to the form, timing, manner and size of each sale. We have been informed by the selling stockholders that there are no existing arrangements between any selling stockholder and any other stockholder, broker, dealer, underwriter or agent relating to the sale or distribution of shares of common stock which may be sold by selling stockholders through this prospectus. The selling stockholders may be deemed underwriters under the federal securities laws in connection with resales of their shares. The common shares may be sold in one or more of the following manners: o a block trade in which the broker or dealer so engaged will attempt to sell the shares as agent, but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction; o purchases by a broker or dealer for its account under this prospectus; or o ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker solicits purchases. In effecting sales, brokers or dealers engaged by the selling stockholders may arrange for other brokers or dealers to participate. Except as disclosed in a supplement to this prospectus, no broker-dealer will be paid more than a customary brokerage commission in connection with any sale of the common shares by the selling stockholders. Brokers or dealers may receive commissions, discounts or other concessions from the selling stockholders in amounts to be negotiated immediately prior to the sale. The compensation to a particular broker-dealer may be in excess of customary commissions. Profits on any resale of the common shares as a principal by such broker-dealers and any commissions received by such broker-dealers may be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act of 1933. Any broker-dealer participating in such transactions as agent may receive commissions from the selling stockholders (and, if they act as agent for the purchaser of such common shares, from such purchaser). Broker-dealers may agree with the selling stockholders to sell a specified number of common shares at a stipulated price per share, and, to the extent a broker dealer is unable to do so acting as agent for the selling stockholders, to purchase as principal any unsold common shares at a price required to fulfill the broker-dealer commitment to the selling stockholders. Broker-dealers who acquire common shares as principal may thereafter resell such common shares from time to time in transactions (which may involve crosses and block transactions and which may involve sales to and through other broker-dealers, including transactions of the nature described above) in the over-the-counter market, in negotiated transactions or otherwise at market prices prevailing at the time of sale or at negotiated prices, and in connection with such resales may pay to or receive from the purchasers of such common shares commissions computed as described above. Brokers or dealers who acquire common shares as principal and any other participating brokers or dealers may be deemed to be underwriters in connection with resales of the common shares. In addition, any common shares covered by this prospectus which qualify for sale pursuant to Rule 144 may be sold under Rule 144 rather than pursuant to this prospectus. We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of these common shares, although we have paid the expenses of preparing this prospectus and the related registration statement of which it is a part, and have reimbursed AMRO International $10,000, Euston Investments $15,000 and the four investors in the 2002 private placement $5,000 for their legal, administrative and escrow costs. In order to comply with certain state securities laws, if applicable, the common stock offered in this prospectus will not be sold in a particular state unless such securities have been registered or qualified of sale in such state or an exemption from registration or qualification is available and complied with. Under applicable rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, any person engaged in a distribution of the common shares may not simultaneously engage in market making activities with respect to such securities for a period beginning when such person becomes a distribution participant and ending upon such person's completion of participation in a distribution, including stabilization activities in the common shares to effect covering transactions, to impose penalty bids or to effect passive market making bids. In addition, in connection with the transactions in the common shares, some of the selling stockholders and we will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations under that 49 Act, including, without limitation, the rules set forth above. These restrictions may affect the marketability of the common shares. The selling stockholders will pay all commissions and their own expenses, if any, associated with the sale of the common shares, other than the expenses associated with preparing this prospectus and the registration statement of which it is a part. Limited Grant of Registration Rights We granted registration rights to the selling stockholders to enable them to sell the common stock they previously purchased. In connection with any such registration, we will have no obligation: o to assist or cooperate with the selling stockholders in the offering or disposition of such shares; or o to obtain a commitment from an underwriter relative to the sale of any such shares. We will assume no obligation or responsibility whatsoever to determine a method of disposition for such shares or to otherwise include such shares within the confines of any registered offering other than the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part. We will use our best efforts to file, during any period during which we are required to do so under our registration rights agreement with the selling stockholders, one or more post-effective amendments to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part to describe any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this prospectus or any material change to such information in this prospectus. This obligation may include, to the extent required under the Securities Act of 1933, that a supplemental prospectus be filed, disclosing: o the name of any broker-dealers; o the number of common shares involved; o the price at which the common shares are to be sold; o the commissions paid or discounts or concessions allowed to broker-dealers, where applicable; o that broker-dealers did not conduct any investigation to verify the information set out or incorporated by reference in this prospectus, as supplemented; and o any other facts material to the transaction. Our registration rights agreement with the selling stockholders permits us to restrict the resale of the shares the selling stockholders have purchased from us for a period of time sufficient to permit us to amend or supplement this prospectus to include material information. With respect to the 2002 private placement, if we restrict the selling stockholders within 90 days of the effective date of the registration statement, we are required to pay to the selling stockholders cash to compensate the selling stockholders for their inability to sell shares during the restriction period. The amount we would be required to pay would be one and one-half percent of the price they paid for our stock, less any shares sold. DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK General We are authorized to issue up to 50,000,000 shares of common stock, $.01 par value per share, and 3,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $.01 par value per share. As of January 16, 2002, 35,857,893 shares of common stock and 1,904 shares of convertible preferred stock were issued and outstanding. All of the outstanding capital stock is, and will be, fully paid and non-assessable. Common Stock Holders of common stock are entitled to one vote per share. All actions submitted to a vote of stockholders are voted on by holders of common stock voting together as a single class. Holders of common stock are not entitled to cumulative voting in the election of directors. Holders of common stock are entitled to receive dividends in cash or in property on an equal basis, if and when dividends are declared on the common stock by our board of directors, subject to any preference in favor of outstanding shares of preferred stock, if there are any. In the event of liquidation of our company, all holders of common stock will participate on an equal basis with each other in our net assets available for distribution after payment of our liabilities and payment of any liquidation preferences in favor of outstanding shares of preferred stock. 50 Holders of common stock are not entitled to preemptive rights and the common stock is not subject to redemption. The rights of holders of common stock are subject to the rights of holders of any preferred stock that we designate or have designated. The rights of preferred stockholders may adversely affect the rights of the common stockholders. Preferred Stock Our board of directors has the ability to issue up to 3,000,000 shares of preferred stock in one or more series, without stockholder approval. The board of directors may designate for the series: o the number of shares and name of the series, o the voting powers of the series, including the right to elect directors, if any, o the dividend rights and preferences, if any, o redemption terms, if any, o liquidation preferences and the amounts payable on liquidation or dissolution, and o the terms upon which such series may be converted into any other series or class of our stock, including the common stock and any other terms that are not prohibited by law. It is impossible for us to state the actual effect it will have on common stock holders if the board of directors designates a new series of preferred stock. The effects of such a designation will not be determinable until the rights accompanying the series have been designated. The issuance of preferred stock could adversely affect the voting power, liquidation rights or other rights held by owners of common stock or other series of preferred stock. The board of directors' authority to issue preferred stock without stockholder approval could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire control of our company, and could discourage any such attempt. We have no present plans to issue any additional shares of preferred stock. Series B Preferred Stock On May 1, 2001, Carl Berg converted approximately $2.3 million of debt and accrued interest currently owed by Focus to Mr. Berg into approximately 1,904 shares of convertible preferred stock based on the estimated fair value of the preferred stock as of May 1, 2001, the date on which the related subscription agreement was executed. Each share of preferred stock has a liquidation preference of $1,190.48 per share and is convertible into 1,000 shares of common stock. On April 24, 2001, the board of directors of Focus adopted a Certificate of Designation whereby a total of 2,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock, $0.01 par value per share, are reserved for issuance in connection with the convertible note issued by us to Carl Berg. See "Note 8 - Stockholders' Equity - Series B Preferred Stock" on page S-10. Each share has a liquidation preferred in the amount of $1,190.48 plus all accrued or declared but unpaid dividends. Cash dividends on the stock are non-cumulative and are paid at the option of the board of directors. If paid, the rate shall be seven percent per annum. The board does not presently intend to pay dividends on the stock. At the option of the holder, each share is convertible into 1,000 shares of our common stock. Options and Warrants As of January 16, 2002, 6,144,456 options for shares were outstanding under our approved stock option plans and 3,909,505 shares were available for future grants under our stock option plans. We have also issued or are required to issue warrants totaling 1,210,219 common stock shares. Of that number of warrants, 827,140 are covered by this prospectus and are described elsewhere herein. Holders of options and warrants do not have any of the rights or privileges of our stockholders, including voting rights, prior to exercise of the options and warrants. We have reserved sufficient shares of authorized common stock to cover the issuance of common stock subject to the options and warrants. 51 PROVISIONS OF OUR ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION AND BYLAWS The following provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law and our certificate of incorporation and bylaws could have the effect of preventing or delaying a person from acquiring or seeking to acquire a substantial equity interest in, or control of, our company. Indemnification and Limitation of Liability The Delaware General Corporation Law authorizes Delaware corporations to indemnify any person who was or is a party to any proceeding other than an action by, or in the right of, the corporation, by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee, or agent of the corporation. The indemnity also applies to any person who is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee, or agent of another corporation or other entity. The indemnification applies against liability incurred in connection with such a proceeding, including any appeal thereof, if the person acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the corporation. To be eligible for indemnity with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, the person must have had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. In the case of an action by or on behalf of a corporation, indemnification may not be made if the person seeking indemnification is found liable, unless the court in which the action was brought determines such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification. The indemnification provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law require indemnification if a director, officer, employee or agent has been successful in defending any action, suit or proceeding to which he was a party by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation. The indemnity covers expenses actually and reasonably incurred in defending the action. The indemnification authorized under Delaware law is not exclusive and is in addition to any other rights granted to officers and directors under the certificate of incorporation or bylaws of the corporation or any agreement between officers and directors and the corporation. Each of our executive officers has signed an employment agreement that include indemnification. The employment agreements provide for full indemnification under Delaware law. The employment agreements also provide that we will indemnify the officer or director against liabilities and expenses incurred in a proceeding to which the officer or director is a party or is threatened to be made a party, or in which the officer or director is called upon to testify as a witness or deponent, in each case arising out of actions of the officer in his official capacity. Our bylaws provide for the indemnification of directors, former directors and officers to the maximum extent permitted by Delaware law and for the advancement of expenses incurred in connection with the defense of any action, suit or proceeding that the director or officer was a party to by reason of the fact that he is or was a director or officer of our corporation, or at our request, a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation. Our bylaws also provide that we may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any director against liability asserted against the director in such capacity. Transfer Agent and Registrar The transfer agent for our common stock is American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, New York, New York. LEGAL MATTERS The validity of the shares of common stock issued in this offering will be passed upon for us by the law firm of Manatt Phelps & Phillips, LLP, Palo Alto, California. EXPERTS Our financial statements as of December 31, 1999 and 2000, and for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2000, have been included in this prospectus and in the Registration Statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission in reliance upon the report of Wolf & Company, P.C., independent certified public accountants, upon its authority as experts in accounting and auditing. Wolf & Company, P.C.'s report on the financial statements can be found on page F-1 of this prospectus and in the Registration Statement. The consolidated financial statements of Videonics as of December 31, 1999 and for the year then ended included in this Prospectus have been so included in reliance on the report of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, independent accountants, given on the authority of said firm as experts in auditing and accounting. Their report can be found on page V-1 of this prospectus and in the Registration Statement. The consolidated financial statements of Videonics, Inc. as of December 31, 2000 and for the year then ended included in this prospectus have been audited by Deloitte & Touche LLP, independent auditors, as stated in its report appearing herein, and are included in reliance upon the report of such firm given upon its authority as experts in accounting and auditing. 52 CHANGE IN ACCOUNTANT Effective May 3, 2001, Focus replaced its independent auditors, Wolf & Company, P.C. ("Wolf & Co.") with Deloitte & Touche, LLP ("Deloitte"). Wolf & Co.'s report on the Company's financial statements during the two most recent fiscal years preceding the date hereof contained no adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinions, and was not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. The decision to change accountants was approved by the Company's Audit Committee. During the last two fiscal years and the subsequent interim period to the date hereof, there were no disagreements between the Company and Wolf & Co. On any matters of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreement(s), if not resolved to the satisfaction of Wolf & Co., would have caused it to make a reference to the subject matter of the disagreement(s) in connection with its reports. None of the "reportable events" described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-B occurred with respect to the Company within the last two fiscal years and the subsequent interim period to the date hereof. Effective May 3, 2001, the Company engaged Deloitte as its independent auditors for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2001. During the last two fiscal years and the subsequent interim period to the date hereof, the Company did not consult Deloitte regarding any of the matters or events set forth in Item 304(a)(2)(v) and (ii) of Regulation S-B.

Campbell, California We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of FOCUS Enhancements, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2000 and 1999, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of FOCUS Enhancements, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2000 and 1999, and the consolidated results of their operations and cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. As indicated in Note 10, the Company has been previously named in two consolidated class action lawsuits. The complaints allege that the Company, its Chairman, and its Chief Financial Officer violated federal securities laws in connection with a number of allegedly false or misleading statements and seek certification as a class action and certain unquantified damages. The Company continues to contest this litigation vigorously. /s/ WOLF & COMPANY, P.C. Wolf & Company, P.C. Boston, Massachusetts April 27, 2001 F-1 FOCUS ENHANCEMENTS, INC.

F-5 Focus Enhancements, Inc Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Business of the Company. FOCUS Enhancements, Inc. (the "Company" "FOCUS") is involved in the development and marketing of proprietary PC-to-TV convergence products for Windows(TM) and Mac(TM) OS based personal computers. The Company's products, which are sold globally through original equipment manufacturers (OEM's) and resellers, merge computer generated graphics and television displays for presentations, training, education, video teleconferencing, Internet viewing and home gaming markets. Based on a targeted product plan and its experience in video conversion technology, FOCUS has developed a strategy to compete in the PC-to-TV convergence industry. Over 90% of the components for the Company's products are manufactured on a turnkey basis by four vendors, Furthertech Company, Ltd., Samsung Semiconductor Inc., Sicon International and Asemtec Corporation. In the event that these vendors were to cease supplying the Company, management believes that alternative turnkey manufacturers for the Company's products could be secured. However, the Company would most likely experience delays in the shipments of its products. The personal computer enhancements market is characterized by extensive research and development and rapid technological change resulting in product life cycles of twelve to eighteen months. Development by others of new or improved products, processes or technologies may make the Company's products or proposed products obsolete or less competitive. Management believes it necessary to devote substantial efforts and financial resources to enhance its existing PC-to-TV products and to develop new products. There can be no assurance that the Company will succeed with these efforts. Basis of Presentation. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary PC Video Conversion, Inc. The Company's other subsidiaries, Lapis Technologies, Inc., TView, Inc. and FOCUS Enhancements, B.V. (Netherlands corporation) became inactive or were merged into FOCUS in 1999. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation. Use of Estimates. The process of preparing financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires the use of estimates and assumptions regarding certain types of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Actual results may differ from estimated amounts. Significant estimates used in preparing these financial statements related to accounts receivable allowances, stock balancing allowances, inventory valuation, recoverability of capitalized software development costs, deferred tax asset valuation, the value of equity instruments issued for services and the recoverability of goodwill related to acquisitions. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimates will change within the next year. Financial Instruments. The carrying amounts reflected in the consolidated balance sheets for cash, certificates of deposit, receivables and accounts payable approximate the respective fair values due to the short-term maturity of these instruments. Notes payable, capital leases and long-term debt approximate the respective fair values as these instruments bear interest at terms that would be available through similar transactions with other third parties. Cash and Cash Equivalents. The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Revenue Recognition. Revenue consists primarily of sales of products to original equipment manufacturers ("OEMs"), dealers and distributors. Revenues are recognized upon shipment. However, a limited number of distributor agreements do contain rights to return slow moving inventory or discontinued products held in inventory by the distributor which have not sold through to an end user. Revenue, less reserves for returns, is generally recognized upon shipment to the customer. The Company has established reserves for estimated returns, which are reflected as a reduction in trade receivables in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The Company sells software that is embedded with some of its products. Revenue from the software with products less reserves for returns, is generally recognized upon shipment to the customer. Revenue from post delivery customer support, which consists primarily of telephone support, is recognized upon shipment of the software, as the support is included in the selling price of the software, is not offered separately, and the cost of the support is insignificant. F-6 Focus Enhancements, Inc Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements The Company defers revenue recognition relating to consigned sales until such products are sold through to the end customer by the distributor, or if sell through information is not available from the distributor, when cash is received from the distributors. Receipt of cash from those distributors which do not provide sell through information has historically been indicative of sell through to an end user by that distributor. Management is not aware of any circumstances that would require the return of cash to a distributor, once payment from a distributor has been received. Consignment inventory at December 31, 2000 and 1999 was not material. Price Protection and Rebates. The Company has agreements with certain of its customers which, in the event of a price decrease, allow those customers (subject to certain limitations) credit equal to the difference between the price originally paid and the new decreased price on units either in the customers' inventories on the date of the price decrease, or on the number of units shipped to the customer for a specified time period prior to the price decrease. When a price decrease is anticipated, the Company establishes reserves against gross trade receivables for estimated amounts to be reimbursed to qualifying customers. In addition, the Company records reserves at the time of shipment for rebates. Concentration of Credit Risk. As of December 31, 2000, a major distributor represented approximately 27% of the Company's accounts receivable, a major retailer represented approximately 7% of the Company's accounts receivable and a second major distributor represented approximately 14% of the Company's accounts receivable. As of December 31, 1999, a major distributor represented approximately 23% of the Company's accounts receivable, a major retailer represented approximately 13% of the Company's accounts receivable and a second major distributor represented approximately 12% of the Company's accounts receivable. The Company provides credit to customers in the normal course of business with terms generally ranging between 30 to 90 days. The Company does not usually require collateral for trade receivables, but attempts to limit credit risk through its customer credit evaluation process. The Company maintains its bank accounts with high quality financial institutions to minimize credit risk, however, the company's balances may periodically exceed federal deposit insurance limits. Inventories. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market value using the first-in, first-out method, but not in excess of net realizable value. The Company periodically reviews its inventories for potential slow moving or obsolete items and provides valuation allowances for specific items, as appropriate. Property and Equipment. Property and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets as set forth below. Equipment leased under capital leases is stated at the present value of future lease obligations and is amortized over estimated useful lives. The Company recognizes an impairment loss to the extent the carrying value of asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. In certain circumstances the "fair value" of the asset is estimated by management, if quoted market prices are not available. Category Depreciation Period -------- ------------------- Equipment 3-5 years Furniture and fixtures 5 years Purchased software 1-3 years Leasehold improvements Lesser of 5 years or the term of the lease Capitalized Software. Certain software development costs are capitalized when incurred under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 86. Capitalization of software development costs begins upon the establishment of technological feasibility. The establishment of technological feasibility and the ongoing assessment of recoverability of capitalized software development costs require considerable judgment by management with respect to certain external factors, including, but not limited to, technological feasibility, anticipated future gross revenues, estimated economic life, and changes in software and hardware technologies. Capitalized software development costs are amortized based on the greater of the ratio of the current gross revenues for a product to the total current and anticipated future gross revenues for the product or the straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the asset commencing on the date the product is released. The Company capitalized $1,193,402 and $1,644,689 of software development costs in 2000 and 1999, respectively. Amortization of capitalized software began in January 2000 and for the year ended December 31, 2000 accumulated amortization totaled $420,419. F-7 Focus Enhancements, Inc Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements In the fourth quarter of 2000, the Company learned that both previously disclosed and undisclosed OEMs were significantly reducing their 2001 sales forecast for the Internet set top box market citing a slower than expected adoption of Internet appliances for the home. The Company's recently developed ASICs, including the FS450 and a previously unannounced chip, both were designed for this market. To date, sales of ASICs for the Internet appliance market have been insignificant. In assessing the recoverability of its capitalized software development costs, the Company considered anticipated future gross revenues, estimated economic life, and changes in software and hardware technologies. Based on those factors, the Company reduced the carrying value of its capitalized software by $2,289,000. Goodwill. Goodwill resulting from business combinations is amortized on a straight-line basis over periods ranging from three to seven years. The Company evaluates the net realizable value of goodwill periodically based on a number of factors including discounted cash flow analysis, operating results, business plans, budgets and economic projections. The Company's evaluation also considers non-financial data such as market trends, customer relationships, product development cycles and changes in management's market emphasis. Adjustments to the carrying value of goodwill are made whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the asset may not be recoverable. Goodwill amortization for the year ended December 31, 2000 and 1999 totaled $287,000 and $171,000, respectively. Advertising and Sales Promotion Costs. Advertising and sales promotion costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising expense was approximately $1,718,000 and $1,756,000 for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Legal Fees. Legal fees are charged to expense in the period the legal services are performed. Research and Development. Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Product Warranty Costs. The Company's warranty period for its products is generally one to three years. The Company accrues for warranty costs based on estimated warranty return rates and costs to repair. Income Taxes. Deferred taxes are determined based on the differences between the financial statement and tax basis carrying amounts of assets and liabilities, using enacted tax rates in effect in the years in which the differences are expected to reverse. Valuation allowances are provided if, based upon the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Foreign Currency Translation. The functional currency of the Company's foreign subsidiary, FOCUS Enhancements, B.V., is its local currency, the Guilder. Financial statements are translated into U.S. dollars using the exchange rates at each balance sheet date for assets and liabilities and using a weighted average exchange rate for each period for revenue, expenses, gains and losses. Foreign exchange gains or losses, which are not material, are recognized in income for the years presented. On July 1, 1999, the Company closed its foreign subsidiary and on August 15, 1999 dissolved this entity. Stock Compensation Plans. Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" encourages all entities to adopt a fair value based method of accounting for employee stock compensation plans, whereby compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award which is recognized over the service period, which is usually the vesting period. However, it also allows an entity to continue to measure compensation cost for those plans using the intrinsic value based method of accounting prescribed by Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," whereby compensation cost is the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of the stock at the grant date (or other measurement date) over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. Stock options issued under the Company's stock option plans have no intrinsic value at the grant date, accordingly, under APB Opinion No. 25, no compensation cost is recognized. The Company has elected to continue with the accounting prescribed in APB Opinion No. 25 and, as a result, must make pro forma disclosures of net income and earnings per share and other disclosures as if the fair value based method of accounting had been applied. F-8 Focus Enhancements, Inc Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements Net Income (Loss) Per Share. Basic earnings per share represents income available to common stock divided by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects additional common shares that would have been outstanding if dilutive potential common shares had been issued, as well as any adjustment to income that would result from the assumed conversion. Potential common shares that may be issued by the Company relate to convertible debt and outstanding stock options and warrants. The number of common shares that would be issued under outstanding options and warrants is determined using the treasury stock method. The assumed conversion of outstanding dilutive stock options and warrants would increase the shares outstanding but would not require an adjustment to income as a result of the conversion. For the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, options and warrants applicable to 487,780 shares and 4,240,655 shares, respectively were anti-dilutive and excluded from the diluted earnings per share computation. Comprehensive Income. Accounting principles generally require that recognized revenue, expenses, gains and losses be included in net income. Certain Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") statements, however, require entities to report specific changes in assets and liabilities, such as unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities and foreign currency items, as a separate component of the equity section of the balance sheet. Such items, along with net income, are components of comprehensive income. There was no accumulated comprehensive income at December 31, 2000 and 1999. Recent Accounting Pronouncements In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS 133"). SFAS 133 establishes new accounting and reporting standards for companies to report information about derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts (collectively referred to as "derivatives") and for hedging activities. In June 1999, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 137, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities--Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 133." This statement amended the effective date of SFAS 133. SFAS 133 will now be effective for financial statements issued for all fiscal quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2000. The adoption of this pronouncement is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's results of operations, financial position or liquidity. During the second quarter of 2000, the Company adopted the Securities and Exchange Commission's Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101 ("SAB 101"). SAB 101 provided guidance on the recognition, presentation, and disclosure of revenue in financial statements. The adoption of this pronouncement did not have a material impact on the Company's results of operations, financial position or liquidity for the years ended December 31, 2000 or 1999. 2. Management's Plans The Company has incurred significant losses for the last two years and has a limited history of profitability. At December 31, 2000, the Company reported a stockholder deficit of $417,217. To date we have met our short-and long-term cash needs from the proceeds of debt, the sale of common stock in private placements and the exercise of stock options and warrants because cash flow from operations has been insufficient to fund operations. Management is assessing product lines in light of the recent merger with Videonics Inc., to identify how to enhance existing or create new distribution channels. In addition, the Company is developing and expects to release at least three new products for the year 2001. Although there can be no assurances, Management expects the Company's sales for 2001 to increase over combined pro forma revenues for 2000, as the Company begins shipments of its new products and expected synergies in its sales channels solidify. During 2000, management took steps to reduce costs, including the closure of its PC Video facility in Morgan Hill, CA and planning for the closure of its Wilmington, MA facility in connection with its recent acquisition of Videonics Inc., located in Campbell, CA. The Wilmington, MA facility was in fact closed on April 1, 2001 and operations, customer support and finance were moved into the Campbell, CA, facility. The remaining sales personnel relocated into a 2,800 square foot facility. In connection with this restructuring the Company expects to reduce overall personnel by 20%. F-9 Focus Enhancements, Inc Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements Even with the anticipated reduction in expenses related to the restructuring and an expected increase in sales, the Company anticipates that during 2001 it will need to raise over $3.0 million to support its working capital needs and meet existing debt obligations. In an effort to meet those needs, the Company has entered into a Private Equity Line of Credit Agreement ("Equity Agreement") with Euston Investments ("Euston"). Under the Euston Equity Agreement the Company can issue up to 4,000,000 shares of its common stock, subject to certain restrictions, to Euston at a 10% discount to raise additional money. In addition, on February 28, 2001, the Company and Carl Berg, a Focus director and stockholder entered into an Secured Convertible Promissory Note agreement under which Mr. Berg loaned the Company $1.0 million and agreed to loan up to an additional $1.0 million to support the Company's working capital needs. (See Notes 11 and 17 to the Consolidated Financial Statements - "Shareholders' Equity - Common Stock" and "Subsequent Events - Loan from Stockholder" for more information.) On April 25, 2001, Mr. Berg agreed that within 30 days he would convert $2.0 million of outstanding debt of Focus owed to Mr. Berg to equity. As noted above, the Company reported a Stockholders' Deficit of $417,217 for the year ended December 31, 2000. After recording the merger with Videonics on January 16, 2001, on an unaudited pro forma basis, the Company is expected to report an estimated Stockholders' Equity of approximately $7,535,000. (See "Note 17 to Consolidated Financial Statements - Subsequent Events" for more information.) Although there can be no assurances, the Company believes that its current cash, anticipated proceeds from the Euston Equity Agreement, its borrowings from a shareholder, together with its operating cash flows, will be sufficient to meet the Company's requirements for working capital, and capital expenditures through the end of 2001. 3.

Restricted Assets As part of the Company's acquisition of TView, Inc. in September 1996, the Company assumed a $125,000 irrevocable stand-by letter of credit with a bank to secure office space in Beaverton, Oregon. During 1997, the Company placed $125,000 in an interest bearing account at the Company's bank to secure the letter of credit. During 1999, the Company requested and received $83,334 from the interest bearing account, thus reducing the stand-by letter of credit. The amount recorded as an other asset as of December 31, 2000 and 1999 is $41,666. 8. Notes Payable Line of Credit, Bank During 2000, the Company did not maintain or utilize a commercial line of credit. On March 31, 1999, the Company repaid all monies owed on this line of credit with its commercial bank totaling approximately $637,000 from proceeds received under a $2,000,000 accounts receivable financing agreement with the same commercial bank. The agreement allowed for advances on accounts receivable not to exceed 80% of qualified invoices. Interest was charged on the outstanding balance at a rate of the prime lending rate plus 4.5%. Under the terms of this agreement the bank was issued warrants to purchase 100,000 shares of the Company's common stock at a price of $1.70 per share. Term Loan, Bank During 2000, the Company did not initiate any borrowings with commercial lenders. On March 31, 1998, the Company assumed a $329,953 bank loan resulting from the purchase of certain assets and the assumption of certain liabilities of Digital Vision, Inc. The loan was paid in full at December 31, 1999. Term Loan, Vendor On April 20, 1999, the Company converted certain accounts payable due to a contract manufacturer to a term note in the amount of $1,700,000 with interest at a rate of 12% per annum. On December 31, 1999, the Company and the holder of the note reached an agreement as to the settlement of the note and additional accounts payable amounts. The total agreed upon obligation was $1,669,000. On January 5, 2000, the Company repaid $1,000,000 of these obligations and on January 28, 2000, escrowed $669,000 that was paid to the holder in three equal installments on February 5, March 5, and April 5, 2000. Long-term Debt Purchase of PC Video Conversion, Inc. On July 29, 1998, the Company issued a $1,000,000 note payable to Steve Wood in conjunction with the acquisition of PC Video providing for the payment of principal and interest at 3.5 % over a period of 36 months. At December 31, 2000, the balance was $ 427,437. On July 28, 2000, the Company entered into a Separation Agreement with Steve Wood. Mr. Wood was the Vice President of Pro AV engineering, former sole shareholder of PC Video Conversion, Inc., and leader of the Company's Morgan Hill, CA facility. On June 15, 2000, the Company closed the Morgan Hill facility. As part of the Separation agreement which terminated Mr. Wood's employment agreement, Mr. Wood remained a consultant until an upgrade to one of the Company's Pro AV products is completed. In return, Mr. Wood received a right to convert the promissory note into common stock of the Company following approval of the increase to the authorized common stock of the Company. The Company's stockholders approved the increase to the authorized common stock on January 12, 2001 and shortly thereafter, Mr. Wood agreed to convert the promissory note into 468,322 shares of the Company's common stock. F-12 Focus Enhancements, Inc Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements Convertible Note Carl Berg, a Focus director and shareholder loaned Focus $2,362,494 to collateralize a $2,362,494 bond posted in connection with the CRA litigation (see Note 10.) The promissory note has a term of three years and bears interest at a rate of prime plus 1%. The interest earned on the collateral is payable to Mr. Berg. The interest payable by the Company to Mr. Berg is reduced by the amount of interest earned on the collateral. The principal amount of the note will be due at the end of its term, with interest to be paid quarterly. Under certain circumstances, including at the election of Mr. Berg and Focus, the promissory note is convertible into shares of Focus common stock generally equal to the value of the promissory note and any accrued and unpaid interest. The promissory note is secured by a security agreement in favor of Mr. Berg granting him a security interest, in first priory, over substantially all of the assets of Focus. As of December 31, 2000 the Company had accrued interest due under the note totaling $52,061. 9. Other Income Sale of Networking Assets Effective September 30, 1997, the Company sold its line of computer connectivity products to Advanced Electronic Support Products, Inc. ("AESP") for 189,701 shares of AESP common stock. The Company recorded other income in the amount of $358,288, securities available for sale in the amount of $595,000 (discounted 15% to reflect temporary restrictions on the common stock), and deferred income of $84,212. A director of the Company is also a director of AESP. In 1998 the Company recorded a loss of $346,017 on the securities available for sale as the decline in value was considered to be other than temporary. In June and July 1999, the Company sold the 189,701 shares of AESP stock yielding gross proceeds of approximately $329,000 and recognizing a gain of approximately $80,000. Accounts Payable During the year ended December 31, 1999, the Company recognized a total of $71,076 of other income in connection with the release of selected obligations and the reduction of certain accounts payable. Similar income for the year ended December 31, 2000 was not significant. 10. Commitments and Contingencies Leases The Company leases office facilities and certain equipment under operating leases. Under the lease agreements, the Company is obligated to pay for utilities, taxes, insurance and maintenance. Total rent expense for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999 was approximately $284,000 and $400,000, respectively. The Company leases certain computer and office equipment under capital leases with three to five-year terms. Capitalized leased assets are included in property and equipment. In connection with the Company's restructuring, the net book value of all abandoned capital leases have been written-off against the restructuring reserve. This charge approximated $179,000. The cost of assets under capital leases at December 31, 1999 was $443,874 with accumulated amortization of $135,832. F-13 Focus Enhancements, Inc Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements Minimum lease commitments at December 31, 2000 are as follows: Capital Leases Operating Leases -------------- ---------------- 2001 $121,289 $184,374 2002 69,078 147,834 2003 47,140 147,834 2004 1,115 111,206 2005 -- 89,000 -------- -------- Total minimum lease payments 238,622 680,248 ======== Less amounts representing interest 36,620 Present value of minimum obligations 202,002 Less current portion 100,018 -------- Non-current portion $101,984 ======== Employment Agreements The Company has employment agreements with certain corporate officers. The agreements are generally one to three years in length and provide for minimum salary levels. These agreements include severance payments of approximately one to three times each officer's annual compensation. Letters of Credit During 2000, the Company entered into agreements with subcontractors to manufacture partially and fully completed products. As part of these agreements the Company was required to obtain from its banks an irrevocable sight letter of credit to secure payment of each order placed with these vendors. The Company was required to secure these letters of credit by depositing cash in an interest bearing account with the bank. At December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively, the Company maintained interest bearing accounts collateralizing sight letters of credit in the amount of $1,263,153 and $534,091, respectively. These amounts are recorded in current assets as they relate to the procurement of inventory and are outstanding for periods of less than one year. Restricted Collateral Deposit In connection with the CRA Systems judgement, the Company posted a bond in the amount of $2,362,494 to suspend any enforcement of the judgment pending appeal. Carl Berg, a director and shareholder of the Company obtained the bond on Focus' behalf in exchange for a secured convertible note in the same amount. (See Note 8 "Convertible Note".) The bond is irrevocable and is collateralized by a certificate of deposit in the amount of $2,365,000. In the event the case is settled for less than the bond amount, the Company has agreed to utilize the proceeds to pay down any outstanding debt owed to Mr. Berg. Purchase Commitment The Company agreed to purchase a minimum of $2,500,000 of cables and other products from Advanced Electronic Support Products, Inc. ("AESP") by March 29, 2001. In return, the Company received certain pricing commitments over the term of the master purchase agreement. In the event that the Company does not purchase at least $2,500,000 of cables and other products during the term of the master purchase agreement the Company must pay AESP an amount equal to 20% of the difference between $2,500,000 and the aggregate amount of purchases. The agreement allows the Company and its subcontractors, to purchase product from other sources if AESP's pricing or quality do not meet certain competitive levels and that such purchases shall reduce the minimum requirements under the agreement. As of December 31, 2000 the Company has purchased a total of $1,316,000 from AESP or from other sources which apply against the $2,500,000 obligation. The Company believes that the AESP has defaulted on certain of its obligations and is in the process of renegotiating the contract. As of April 26, 2001 the Company had not reached an agreement with AESP. As such, after reducing the minimum obligation for additional purchases made between January 1, 2001 and March 29, 2001 the Company recorded a purchasing obligation liability in the amount of $225,000 at December 31, 2000. F-14 Focus Enhancements, Inc Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements Restructuring Expenses For the year ended December 31, 2000, the Company recorded restructuring expenses totaling $724,000 related to the closure of its Morgan Hill, CA, facility and the closure of its Wilmington, MA, facility. The closure of the Company's Morgan Hill facility occurred in the first quarter of 2000 and restructuring charges totaled approximately $202,000. Direct expenses were comprised of inventory adjustments of approximately $118,000, payroll and benefits of approximately $57,000, travel of approximately $16,000 and lease cancellation charges of approximately $11,000. At December 31, 2000 all restructuring accruals related to the Morgan Hill closure have been utilized. In December 2000, the Company's Board of Directors determined that to significantly reduce the Company's cost structure it would close its Wilmington, MA facility, reduce personnel and relocate to a significantly smaller facility during the first quarter of 2001. As such, restructuring charges of $522,000 were recorded in the fourth quarter of 2000. Planned expenses are comprised of expenses related to the reduction of 16 employees in the areas of operations, customer support and finance of approximately $153,000 and equipment and lease abandonment charges of approximately $369,000. At December 31, 2000 $153,000 of restructuring reserves remained primarily related to personnel benefits associated with scheduled staffing reductions. Litigation Focus has been named as a defendant in an alleged class action alleging violation of federal securities laws. Focus has been named as a defendant in two consolidated alleged class actions alleging violations of federal securities laws. The lawsuits allege that Focus and its Chairman and certain other present and former officers violated federal securities laws in connection with a number of allegedly false or misleading statements and seek certification of two classes, one on behalf of persons who purchased stock from July 17, 1997 to February 19, 1999 and the other on behalf of persons who purchased stock between November 15, 1999 to March 1, 2000, respectively. Defendants moved to dismiss both actions. At a March 2, 2001 hearing, the Federal District Court allowed limited discovery to occur relating to certain limited allegations as to the earlier alleged class. Focus believes that the remaining allegations will be dismissed. As to the later alleged class, the Court has taken the motion to dismiss under advisement. Focus believes that it has consistently complied with the federal securities laws, and does not believe at this time that this litigation will result in a material adverse effect on its financial condition. Nonetheless, the management time and resources that could be required to respond effectively to such claims and to defend Focus vigorously in such litigation could adversely impact our management's administrative capabilities. Focus is involved as a defendant in litigation with CRA Systems, Inc In 1996 CRA Systems, Inc., a Texas corporation, and Focus entered into an agreement, the terms and nature of which were subsequently disputed by the parties. Focus contended that the transaction was simply a sale of inventory for which Focus was never paid. CRA contended otherwise. CRA brought suit against Focus for breach of contract contending that Focus grossly exaggerated the demand for the product and the margin of profit that was available to CRA regarding this project. CRA sought to recover out-of-pocket losses exceeding $100,000 and lost profits of $400,000 to $1,000,000. A jury trial in May 2000 in federal district court in Waco, Texas, resulted in a verdict in favor of CRA for $848,000 actual damages and $1,000,000 punitive damages. On October 10, 2000, the court rendered a judgment in favor of CRA for actual damages, punitive damages, attorney's fees, costs, and interest, for a total award of approximately $2,000,000. In connection with this judgment, we recorded an expense of $2.1 million in the period ended September 30, 2000. The court overruled the motion for new trial that Focus filed, and Focus has appealed the judgment to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit in New Orleans, Louisiana. The case has not yet been submitted to the appeals court for decision. The trial court has granted a stay of any enforcement of the judgment pending appeal, based on the posting of a bond in the approximate amount of $2.3 million (being the approximate amount of the judgment plus 10% to cover interest and costs of CRA). F-15 Special Investigation In March 2000, the Company's independent auditors, Wolf & Company, P.C., brought to the attention of the Board certain matters relating to the Company's financial controls. The Board of Directors thereafter formed a special committee to investigate. The special committee engaged the law firm of Foley, Hoag & Eliot LLP, which engaged the accounting firm of Arthur Andersen LLP to aid in the investigation. Based upon its investigation, the committee has concluded that, despite his denials, an accounting manager in the Company's finance department misstated the inventory records of the Company's Pro AV series for purposes of presentation to the Company's outside auditors in connection with the audit for the year ended December 31, 1999. A revised inventory list for the Pro AV series as of December 31, 1999 was compiled in connection with the special committee's review and has been subject to audit tests performed by Wolf & Company, P.C. as part of its year end audit of the financial statements of the Company as a whole. The revised inventory figures were included in the December 31, 1999 financial statements. As such, management believes that inventory has been properly presented as of December 31, 1999 and no adjustments appeared to be necessary to prior periods. The accounting manager in question has been discharged. As a result of the Committee's investigation, the Company incurred accounting fees of approximately $302,000 and legal fees of approximately $292,000. These fees and expenses which were charged to earnings in the quarter ended March 31, 2000. General From time to time, the Company is party to certain other claims and legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business which, in the opinion of management, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position or results of operation. 11. Stockholders' Equity Common Stock General During the course of the years described below, the Company raised additional capital through private financing arrangements with unaffiliated investors. Under these arrangements, the Company issued bulk sales of its common stock at prices below quoted market values. The sales of these shares were made below quoted market values because the shares were unregistered and sold in bulk. Transactions On January 18, 2000, the Company received net proceeds of $960,560 from the issuance of 330,000 shares of common stock resulting from the exercise of common stock warrants issued pursuant to a private placement with an unaffiliated investor. The Company received proceeds of $31,890 from the issuance of 30,000 shares of common stock resulting from the exercise of common stock warrants issued as partial compensation to an unaffiliated investor relations firm. These warrants were exercised on February 23, 2000 (15,000 shares) and March 2, 2000 (15,000 shares). On June 9, 2000, the Company entered into a financing agreement resulting in $1,500,000 in gross proceeds from the sale of 1,400,000 shares of common stock and the issuance of a warrant to purchase an additional 140,000 shares of common stock in a private placement, to an unaffiliated accredited investor. The warrant is exercisable until June 30, 2005 at a per-share exercise price of $1.625. In addition, Union Atlantic Capital, L.C. received a warrant to purchase 45,000 shares of common stock as compensation for brokering the private placement. The warrant is exercisable until June 30, 2005 at a per-share exercise price of $1.625. On February 7, 2001, the Company filed a preliminary registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933 to register those shares issued in connection with this transaction and for those to be issued upon exercise of the warrants. The Securities and Exchange Commission has requested that December 31, 2000 information be included in the registration statement and as such the registration statement has not yet been refilled as of April 26, 2001. The Company received proceeds from this transaction on June 9, 2000. The fees and expenses associated with this offering was $216,000 yielding net proceeds of $1,284,000. In accordance with our obligations under the agreement, the company is incurring damages of 2% per month of the gross proceeds until its registration of the shares purchased by the investor. At December 31, 2000, the Company recorded interest expense of $150,000. The investor has agreed to exchange the gross amount of calculated damages for additional common stock of Focus based on an exchange rate of 0.68. As of December 31, 2000, the Company is required to issue to the investor additional 220,000 shares of Focus common stock, to extinguish this accrued liability. F-16 Focus Enhancements, Inc Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements On July 28, 2000, the Company entered into an equity line of credit agreement with Euston Investments Holdings Limited, a British Virgin Islands Corporation, for the future issuance and purchase of shares of our common stock. The equity line of credit agreement establishes what is sometimes termed an equity drawdown facility. In general, the investor, Euston Investments, has committed to purchase up to 4,000,000 shares of our common stock, as requested by us, at a discount to the market price over a 24 month period. The number of shares issued to Euston Investments in return for that money is determined by dividing the contracted price per share into the amount of money requested by the Company. The per share dollar amount to Euston Investments is 10% less than the average closing bid price of our common stock during a valuation period. A "valuation period" is defined as the period of fifteen trading days beginning seven trading days immediately before the Trading Day on which a drawdown is requested and ending seven trading days immediately after such date. We will receive the amount of the drawdown less an escrow agent fee of $750 and 7% placement fee payable to the placement agent, Union Atlantic Capital, L.C., which introduced Euston Investments to the Company. We are under no obligation to request a draw for any period. In lieu of providing Euston Investments with a minimum aggregate drawdown commitment, we have issued to Euston Investments a stock purchase warrant to purchase 250,000 shares of our common stock with an exercise price of $1.625. The warrant expires June 12, 2005.

In November, 1999, the Company completed a financing of $2,000,000 in gross proceeds from the sale of 1,250,000 shares of common stock and the issuance of three warrants to purchase an aggregate of 125,000 shares of common stock in a private placement to three unaffiliated accredited investors. The warrants are exercisable until December 1, 2004 at a per-share exercise price of $3.1969. The shares issued in connection with this transaction and issuable upon exercise of the warrant will be registered under the Securities Act of 1933. Expenses associated with this offering amounted to approximately $42,000 yielding net proceeds of $1,958,000. The aggregate fair value of all warrants issued in connection with debt financing and in connection with compensation for services in 1999 was calculated at approximately $159,000. The Company has calculated the fair value of the warrants using the Black-Scholes model and the following assumptions: Risk-free rate of interest 6.0% Average computed life of warrants 3 - 7 years Dividend yield 0.0% Volatility of common stock 35.0% - 45.0% Common Stock Purchase Warrants Common stock warrant activity is summarized as follows:

F-20 Focus Enhancements, Inc Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements Stock-based Compensation. At December 31, 2000, the Company has stock option plans and non-plan stock options that are described above. The Company applies APB Opinion No. 25 and related interpretations in accounting for stock options. Accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized for stock options issued to employees. Had compensation cost for the Company's stock-based compensation plans and non-plan stock options outstanding been determined based on the fair value at the grant dates for awards under those plans consistent with the method prescribed by SFAS No. 123, the Company's net loss and loss per share would have been adjusted to the pro forma amounts indicated below: Years ended December 31, ------------------------ 2000 1999 ---- ---- Net loss As reported $(12,028,888) $(1,479,703) Pro forma $(12,865,186) $(2,587,558) Basic loss per share As reported $(0.48) $(.08) Pro forma $(0.51) $(.14) Diluted loss per share As reported $(0.48) $(.08) Pro forma $(0.51) $ (.14) Common stock equivalents have been excluded from all calculations of loss per share and pro forma loss per share in 2000 and 1999 because the effect of including them would be anti-dilutive. The fair value of each grant is estimated on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions used for grants in 2000 and 1999, respectively; dividend yield of 0.0%; expected volatility of 100% and 50%, risk-free interest rates of 6.2% and 6.0% and expected lives of 4.0 and 5.0 years. 12. Income Taxes The Company and its subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income tax return. Allocation of the provision for income taxes between federal and state income taxes is as follows: Years Ended December 31, ----------------- 2000 1999 ------ ------ Current: Federal income taxes $ -- $ -- State income taxes 2,145 -- ------ ------ Deferred: Federal income taxes -- -- State income taxes -- -- ------ ------ $2,145 $ -- ====== ====== The differences between the provisions for income taxes from the benefits computed by applying the statutory Federal income tax rate are as follows:

The net operating loss carry forwards are subject to annual limitations based on ownership changes in the Company's common stock as provided in Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code. F-22 Focus Enhancements, Inc Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements 13. Business Combinations Effective September 30, 1996, FOCUS acquired all of the capital stock of TView, Inc. ("TView"). The business combination was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. Accordingly, the purchase price was allocated to the assets acquired based on their estimated fair value. This accounting treatment resulted in approximately $716,000 of goodwill that will be amortized over its estimated benefit period of seven years. At December 31, 2000, the remaining goodwill balance was $244,000. On March 31, 1998, the Company acquired certain of the assets of Digital Vision, Inc. ("Digital Vision"). In accordance with this transaction, the Company recorded goodwill of approximately $1,322,000. After completion of the merger a further evaluation of the acquired product lines indicated that only two products warranted inclusion in the Company's family of products. By December 31, 1998, the expected revenue stream from this product line, which had been based on pre merger results, had declined significantly. Sales for the product dropped due to an influx of competition in this category in the fourth quarter of 1998, as the product line suffered from a limited feature set and a higher selling price when compared to the competition. The Company was hampered in meeting the competition's selling price as the Company learned that the product line was based on a bill of materials which included certain end of life components. The Company did not acquire any proprietary technology and the customer base proved to be limited. As a result of foregoing, the Company performed a discounted cash flow analysis in December 1998. The Company determined goodwill recorded on the acquisition of Digital Vision should be written down to approximately $127,000. As a result, the Company wrote-down goodwill by approximately $1,070,000. In the fourth quarter of 2000, the Company wrote-off the remaining goodwill balance, of $63,000 as the Company discontinued its sales efforts related to the Digital Vision product line. On July 29, 1998, the Company acquired certain assets and assumed certain liabilities of PC Video Conversion, Inc. ("PC Video"). The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase and resulted in goodwill of approximately $1,657,000. After the merger the Company determined that its sales efforts would be concentrated on PC Video's products and away from the custom engineering side of the business. By December 31, 1998, the Company determined that PC Video custom engineering accounted for a greater portion of PC Video's business than had originally been estimated and revenues dropped dramatically. The Company determined that PC Video had only a limited dealer network and that the majority of its customers would not repeat buy. In addition, PC Video lacked proprietary technology and that certain of its products had a feature set that made sales into the professional market difficult. As a result of foregoing, the Company performed a discounted cash flow analysis in December 31, 1998 and based on this analysis, the Company determined that goodwill should be written down to $195,000. As a result, the Company wrote-down goodwill by approximately $1,441,000. At December 31, 2000, the unamortized goodwill balance is $30,000. 14. Segment Information SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information," establishes standards for disclosures about operating segments, products and services, geographic areas and major customers. The Company is organized and operates in one reportable segment which the development, manufacturing, marketing and sale of computer enhancement devices for personal computers and televisions.

During the year ended December 31, 1999 the Company had operations in the United States and in The Netherlands. On July 1, 1999, the Company closed its foreign subsidiary and on August 15, 1999 dissolved this entity. Sales to a major distributor as of December 31, 2000 and 1999 represented approximately $2,242,000 or 15% and $4,318,000 or 25% of the Company's revenues, respectively.

Employee Benefit Plan Effective July 1, 1998, the Company implemented a Section 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan (the "401(k) Plan") for all eligible employees. The Company may make discretionary contributions to the 401(k) Plan. Employees are permitted to make elective deferrals of up to 15% of employee compensation and employee contributions to the 401(k) Plan are fully vested at all times. Company contributions become vested over a period of five years. The Company has made no contributions to the 401(k) Plan as of December 31, 2000. 16. Related Party Transactions Timothy Mahoney, who is a Focus director, is a principal vFinance.com, Inc., the parent company to Union Atlantic Capital L.C., and a partner of Union Atlantic L.C. For the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, Focus paid Union Atlantic L.C. $83,206 and $112,226, respectively in consulting fees in connection with equity financing agreements negotiated by Union Atlantic L.C. In addition, Union Atlantic Capital L.C. was also issued 243,833 shares of Focus common stock in lieu of investment banking fees in connection with the acquisition of Videonics, Inc. in January 2001. 17. Subsequent Events Increase to Authorized Common Shares On January 12, 2001, the stockholders of the Company approved an increase to the authorized common shares from 30,000,000 to 50,000,000. This increase was recommended and approved by the Company's Board of Directors, in part to issue approximately 5,135,000 shares in connection with the merger of Videonics Inc., and to ensure that sufficient shares are available for issuance under the Company's 2000 Non Qualified Stock Option Plan (5,000,000 shares) and for a Private Equity Line of Credit (4,000,000 shares). Acquisition of Videonics, Inc. On January 16, 2001, Focus Enhancements, Inc., acquired all the shares of Videonics, Inc., ("Videonics") in a transaction accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. Focus issued 0.87 shares of Focus common stock for each issued and outstanding share of Videonics common stock on the closing date. Based on the exchange ratio, a total of approximately 5,135,000 shares were issued. Focus incurred approximately $675,000 in acquisition expenses, including financial advisory and legal fees and other direct transaction costs, which were included as a component of the purchase price. Following the merger, the companies believe that they have a opportunity to take advantage of the complementary strategic fit of the businesses, combining their operations to create a unique commercial entity in the market for video products and technologies. In addition, certain new application specific integrated circuits ("ASICs") currently under development by the FOCUS engineering team have integrated video mixing and switching technology. We believe that the Videonics engineering team can capitalize on this chip technology to build attractively priced digital video solutions for an expanded customer base. In accordance with the Company's restructuring plan, it has significantly reduced it post merger staffing in the areas of operations, customer support and finance as all the aforementioned functional areas have been consolidated into the company's Campbell, California facility. The company negotiated an early release from its lease of a 22,000 square foot facility located in Wilmington, Massachusetts and has since moved its remaining Massachusetts' sales personnel into a 2,800 square foot facility located in Chelmsford, Massachusetts.

The accompanying notes are an integral part of the consolidated financial statements. S-4 Focus Enhancements, Inc. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements 1. Basis of Presentation The consolidated financial statements of Focus Enhancements, Inc. ("the Company") as of September 30, 2001 and for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2001 and 2000 are unaudited and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2000 included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2000. In the opinion of management, the consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the interim periods. The results of operations for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2001 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any future period. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and, as of the January 16, 2001 acquisition date (see "Note 3"), Videonics Inc. ("Videonics"). 2. Management's Plans The Company has incurred significant losses for the last two years. At September 30, 2001, the Company reported stockholder's equity of $7,248,000 and an accumulated deficit of $53,365,000. To date we have met our short-and long-term cash needs from the proceeds of debt, the sale of common stock in private placements and the exercise of stock options and warrants because cash flow from operations has been insufficient to fund operations. Management is assessing product lines in light of the recent merger with Videonics Inc., (see "Note 3") to identify how to enhance existing or create new distribution channels. In addition, the Company released three new products in the third quarter of 2001, which should provide the Company with incremental revenue. Management has taken steps to reduce costs, including the closure of its PC Video facility in Morgan Hill, CA in the second quarter of 2000 and its Wilmington, MA facility on April 1, 2001. All operations, customer support and finance were moved into the Campbell, CA, facility. The remaining sales personnel relocated into a 2,800 square foot facility in Chelmsford, Massachusetts. In connection with this restructuring the Company reduced overall personnel by 20%. In addition, in January 2002, the Company terminated its Private Equity Line of Credit Agreement ("Equity Agreement") with Euston Investments ("Euston") and sold 2,434,490 shares of its common stock in a private placement to independent third parties, receiving net proceeds of approximately $2,450,000. The shares were sold at a 20% discount to the 20-day average closing bid prices of our common stock as of December 27, 2001, the date an agreement in principle was reached by the parties. In connection with the private placement, Focus also issued warrants to purchase 367,140 shares of its common stock at an exercise price of $1.36 per share. Under the Equity Agreement, the Company was to have issued up to 4,000,000 shares of its common stock, subject to certain restrictions, to Euston at a 10% discount to raise additional money. The Company had sought to register such shares under a Registration Statement on Form SB-2. However, before the registration statement was declared effective, on January 11, 2002, Focus and Euston mutually agreed to terminate the agreement. As consideration for terminating the agreement, the exercise price of Euston's warrants to purchase 250,000 shares of Focus common stock was reduced from $1.625 to $0.75 per share. 3. Acquisition of Videonics Inc. On January 16, 2001, Focus acquired all of the outstanding shares of Videonics in a transaction accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. Focus issued 0.87 shares of its common stock for each issued and outstanding share of Videonics common stock on the closing date. Based on the exchange ratio, a total of approximately 5,135,000 shares were issued. Focus incurred approximately $637,000 in acquisition expenses, including financial advisory and legal fees and other direct transaction costs, which were included as a component of the purchase price. S-5 Focus Enhancements, Inc. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements Unaudited Pro Forma Purchase Price Allocation of Videonics January 16, 2001 ----------------------- ---------------- Value of common shares issued $7,960,000 Assumption of Videonics options 498,000 Estimated transaction costs 637,000 Total purchase cost $9,095,000 ---------- Tangible assets acquired $3,384,000 Intangible assets acquired 2,963,000 In-process research and development 505,000 Liabilities assumed (3,373,000) ---------- Excess of cost over fair value (goodwill) $5,616,000 ========== The intangibles and goodwill acquired in this acquisition will be amortized on a straight-line basis over a period of three to four years. See "Note 4. - Recent Accounting Pronouncements," for further discussion of goodwill. 4. Recent Accounting Pronouncements Effective January 1, 2001, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," as amended by SFAS No. 137. SFAS No. 133 requires the recognition of all derivatives in the balance sheet as either an asset or a liability measured at fair value. The adoption of SFAS No. 133 did not have an impact on the Company's financial statements. The Company currently does not utilize derivative financial instruments in its operating activities nor does it use them for trading or speculative purposes. In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations and SFAS No.142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. SFAS No. 141 requires that all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 be accounted for under the purchase method and addresses the initial recognition and measurement of goodwill and other intangible assets acquired in a business combination. SFAS No. 142 addresses the initial recognition and measurement of intangible assets acquired outside of a business combination and the accounting for goodwill and other intangible assets subsequent to their acquisition. SFAS No. 142 provides that intangible assets with finite useful lives be amortized and that goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives will not be amortized, but will rather be tested at least annually for impairment. The Company will adopt SFAS No. 142 for its fiscal year beginning January 1, 2002. Upon adoption of SFAS 142, the Company will stop the amortization of goodwill, expected to have a net carrying value of $4,380,962 at the date of adoption, resulting in an expected reduction of annual amortization of approximately $1,568,400 resulting from business combinations completed prior to the adoption of SFAS 141. In August, 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets." SFAS No. 144 supercedes SFAS No. 121 "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of " SFAS No. 144 applies to all long-lived assets (including discontinued operations) and consequently amends APB Opinion No. 30, "Reporting the Results of Operations, Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions." SFAS No. 144 develops one accounting model for long-lived assets that are to be disposed of by sale. SFAS No. 144 requires that long-lived assets that are to be disposed of by sale be measured at the lower of book value or fair value less cost to sell. Additionally SFAS No. 144 expands the scope of discontinued operations to include all components of an entity with operations that (1) can be distinguished from the rest of the entity and (2) will be eliminated from the ongoing operations of the entity in a disposal transaction. SFAS No. 144 is effective for the Company for all financial statements issued in 2002. The adoption of SFAS No. 144 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company's financial statements. S-6 Focus Enhancements, Inc. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements 5. Reclassification of Certain Expenses Certain expenses in the three and nine month periods ending September 30, 2000, have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications did not change the net loss for those periods ended September 30, 2000. 6. Inventories Inventories at September 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000, consist of the following: 2001 2000 ---------- ---------- Raw materials $2,148,000 $ 826,000 Work in process 520,000 -- Finished goods 1,875,000 1,269,000 ---------- ---------- Totals $4,543,000 $2,095,000 ========== ========== 7. Commitments Bank Loan On November 13, 2000, Pacific Business Funding loaned Videonics $400,000. On January 16, 2001, in connection with the merger, the loan was assumed by Focus. The loan was fully secured by a senior lien on the Company's assets. Interest is calculated at a rate of 15%. The loan was repaid in full on July 16, 2001. Purchase of PC Video Conversion, Inc. On July 29, 1998, the Company issued a $1,000,000 note payable to Steve Wood in conjunction with the acquisition of PC Video Conversion, Inc. ("PC Video") providing for the payment of principal and interest at 3.5 % over a period of 36 months. On July 28, 2000, the Company entered into a Separation Agreement with Steve Wood. Mr. Wood was the Vice President of Pro AV engineering, former sole stockholder of PC Video and manager of the Company's Morgan Hill, CA facility. On June 15, 2000, the Company closed the Morgan Hill facility. As part of the separation agreement which terminated Mr. Wood's employment agreement, Mr. Wood remained a consultant until an upgrade to one of the Company's Pro AV products was completed. In return, Mr. Wood received a right to convert the outstanding balance of $427,000 due under the promissory note into common stock of the Company following approval of the increase to the number of shares of authorized common stock of the Company. The Company's stockholders approved the increase to the authorized common stock on January 12, 2001 and shortly thereafter, Mr. Wood agreed to convert the promissory note into 468,322 shares of the Company's common stock based on the average trading price of the common stock for the five day period preceding January 12, 2001. On June 27, 2001, the Company issued 468,322 shares of common stock to Mr. Wood. Convertible Notes On October 26, 2000, Carl Berg, a Focus director and shareholder, loaned Focus $2,362,494 to collateralize a $2,362,494 bond posted in connection with the CRA litigation (see below "Litigation - Focus is involved as a defendant in litigation with CRA Systems, Inc."). The promissory note has a term of three years and bears interest at a rate of prime plus 1%. The interest earned on the collateral is payable to Mr. Berg. The interest payable by the Company to Mr. Berg is reduced by the amount of interest earned on the collateral. The principal amount of the note will be due at the end of its term, with interest to be paid quarterly. Under certain circumstances, including at the election of Mr. Berg and Focus, the promissory note and any accrued and unpaid interest is convertible into shares of Focus common stock at a conversion price of $1.25 which represented the average closing bid and ask price of the Company's common stock on the day preceding the agreement. The promissory note is secured by a security agreement in favor of Mr. Berg granting him a security interest, in first priority, over substantially all of the assets of Focus. On May 7, 2001, $46,000 of outstanding interest due under the note was converted into 38 shares of Preferred Stock. See "Note 8. Stockholders Equity - Series B Preferred Stock" for more information. As of September 30, 2001 the Company had unpaid principal and accrued interest due under the note totaling approximately $2,388,000. S-7 Focus Enhancements, Inc. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements On February 28, 2001, Carl Berg agreed to loan Focus $2.0 million to support the Company's working capital needs. The promissory note has a due date of September 25, 2003 and bears interest at a rate of prime plus 1%. The principal amount of the note will be due at the end of its term, with interest to be paid quarterly. On April 24, 2001, the note was amended to provide that under certain circumstances, including at the election of Mr. Berg and Focus, the promissory note and any accrued and unpaid interest is convertible into shares of Focus preferred stock at a conversion price of $1.19 which represented 125% of the trailing 30-day average of the Company's common stock ending April 23, 2001. The promissory note is secured by a security agreement in favor of Mr. Berg granting him a security interest in first priority over substantially all of the assets of Focus. On May 7, 2001, the Company and Mr. Berg agreed to the conversion of $1.0 million of debt and all accrued interest due under the note into 854 shares of Preferred Stock. See "Note 8. Stockholders Equity - Series B Preferred Stock" for more information. As of September 30, 2001 the Company had principal and accrued interest due under the note totaling approximately $1,033,000. On June 29, 2001, the Company issued a convertible promissory note to Mr. Berg in the amount up to $650,000 to support the Company's working capital needs. The promissory note has a due date of January 3, 2003 and bears interest at a rate of prime plus 1%. The principal amount of the note will be due at the end of its term, with interest to be paid quarterly. The note provides that at the election of Mr. Berg and Focus, the promissory note and any accrued and unpaid interest is convertible into shares of Focus preferred stock at a conversion price of $1.56 which represented 125% of the trailing 30-day average of the Company's common stock ending June 28, 2001. The promissory note is secured by a security agreement in favor of Mr. Berg granting him a security interest in first priority over substantially all of the assets of Focus. As of September 30, 2001 the Company had principal and accrued interest due under the note totaling approximately $661,000. Note Payable to Stockholder On January 16, 2001 in connection with the Videonics merger, Focus assumed an unsecured note payable to Carl Berg in the amount of $1,035,000. The note earned interest at 8% per year and was due on January 16, 2002. On May 7, 2001, the $1,035,000 and approximately $169,000 of accrued interest due under the note were converted into 1,012 shares of Preferred Stock. See "Note 8. Stockholders Equity - Series B Preferred Stock" for more information. Letters of Credit During 2000, the Company entered into agreements with subcontractors to manufacture partially and fully completed products. As part of these agreements the Company was required to obtain from its banks an irrevocable letter of credit to secure payment of each order placed with these vendors. The Company was required to secure these letters of credit by depositing cash in an interest bearing account with the bank. At September 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000, the Company maintained interest bearing accounts collateralizing letters of credit in the amount of $298,000 and $1,263,000, respectively. These restricted amounts are recorded in current assets as they relate to the procurement of inventory and are outstanding for periods of less than one year. Restricted Collateral Deposit In connection the CRA Systems judgment discussed below, the Company posted a bond in the amount of $2,362,494 to suspend any enforcement of the judgment pending appeal. Carl Berg, a director and stockholder of the Company obtained the bond on Focus' behalf in exchange for a secured convertible note in the same amount as described in "Convertible Notes" above. The bond is irrevocable and is collateralized by a certificate of deposit in the amount of $2,363,000. In the event the case is settled for less than the bond amount, the Company has agreed to utilize the proceeds to pay down any outstanding debt owed to Mr. Berg. This restricted amount is recorded in current assets as it relates to an accrued legal judgment in the amount of $2,148,000. Restructuring Expenses In December 2000, the Company's Board of Directors determined that to significantly reduce the Company's cost structure it would close its Wilmington, MA facility, reduce personnel and relocate to a significantly smaller facility during the first quarter of 2001. As such, restructuring charges of $522,000 were recorded in the fourth quarter of 2000. In addition, restructuring charges of $33,000 were incurred in the first quarter of 2001. Restructuring expenses were related to the reduction of 16 employees in the areas of operations, customer support and finance of approximately $153,000 and equipment and lease abandonment charges of approximately $402,000. At September 30, 2001 $41,000 of restructuring reserves remained, primarily relating to ongoing lease charges for abandoned equipment and personnel benefits associated with scheduled staffing reductions. The closure of the Company's Morgan Hill facility occurred in the first quarter of 2000 and restructuring charges totaled approximately $202,000. Direct expenses were comprised of inventory adjustments of approximately $118,000, S-8 Focus Enhancements, Inc. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements payroll and benefits of approximately $57,000, travel of approximately $16,000 and lease cancellation charges of approximately $11,000. At September 30, 2001 all restructuring costs related to the Morgan Hill closure have been paid. Litigation Focus has been named as a defendant in an alleged class action alleging violation of federal securities laws. Focus and one of its directors have been named as defendants in a securities class action pending in United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts. The complaint alleges a class of stockholders who purchased Focus shares during the July 17, 1997 to February 19, 1999 period. The complaint was initially filed in November of 1999 and has been amended several times. The complaint purports to allege violations of the federal securities laws and seeks unspecified monetary damages. Defendants moved to dismiss the action. The Federal District Court granted certain portions of the Company's motion to dismiss and denied other portions allowing the case to go forward into pretrial discovery as to certain matters. Focus believes that it has consistently complied with the federal securities laws, and does not believe at this time that this litigation will result in a material adverse effect on its financial condition. Nonetheless, the management time and resources that could be required to respond effectively to such claims and to defend Focus vigorously in such litigation could adversely impact our management's administrative capabilities. Focus is involved as a defendant in litigation with CRA Systems, Inc In 1996 CRA Systems, Inc., a Texas corporation, and Focus entered into an agreement, the terms and nature of which were subsequently disputed by the parties. Focus contended that the transaction was simply a sale of inventory for which Focus was never paid. CRA contended otherwise. CRA brought suit against Focus and on September 21, 1998, for breach of contract contending that Focus grossly exaggerated the demand for the product and the margin of profit that was available to CRA regarding this project. CRA sought to recover out-of-pocket losses exceeding $100,000 and lost profits of $400,000 to $1,000,000. The case was removed to the US District Court for the Western District of Texas, Waco, Texas. A jury trial in May 2000 in that court resulted in a verdict in favor of CRA for $848,000 actual damages and $1,000,000 punitive damages. On October 10, 2000, the court rendered a judgment in favor of CRA for actual damages, punitive damages, attorney's fees, costs, and interest. In connection with this judgment, we recorded an expense of $2,147,722 in the period ended September 30, 2000. The court overruled the motion for new trial that Focus filed, and Focus has appealed the judgment to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit in New Orleans, Louisiana. On October 27, 2000, Focus submitted a bond in the approximate amount of $2.3 million (being the approximate amount of the judgment plus 10% to cover interest and costs of CRA) and the U.S. District Court granted a stay of any enforcement of the judgment pending appeal. On January 3, 2002, the Circuit Court affirmed the judgment awarded to CRA virtually in its entirety. The Company had already recorded a charge to operations during the third quarter of 2000. General From time to time, the Company is party to certain other claims and legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business which, in the opinion of management, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations. 8. Stockholders' Equity Increase to Authorized Common Shares On January 12, 2001, the stockholders of the Company approved an increase to the authorized common shares from 30,000,000 to 50,000,000. This increase was recommended and approved by the Company's Board of Directors, in part to issue approximately 5,135,000 shares in connection with the merger of Videonics Inc., and to ensure that sufficient shares are available for issuance under the Company's 2000 Non Qualified Stock Option Plan (5,000,000 shares) and for a Private Equity Line of Credit (4,000,000 shares). Private Placement On June 9, 2000, the Company entered into a financing agreement resulting in $1,500,000 in gross proceeds from the sale of 1,400,000 shares of common stock and the issuance of a warrant to purchase an additional 140,000 shares of common stock in a private placement, to an unaffiliated accredited investor. In accordance with our obligations under the agreement, the Company is incurring charges of 2% per month of the gross proceeds until its registration of the shares purchased by the investor. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2001, the Company recorded expenses of $52,000 and $231,000, respectively, related to such charges (included in Other Expense, Net). The investor agreed to exchange the gross amount of calculated charges for additional common stock of Focus based on an exchange rate of 0.68. Through September 30, 2001, the Company has issued 485,295 shares of Focus common stock to extinguish this accrued S-9 Focus Enhancements, Inc. Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements liability. In connection with the issuance of common stock under this agreement, the Company recorded charges of $17,000 and $142,000 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2001 (included in Other Expense, Net). Series B Preferred Stock On April 24, 2001, the board of directors of Focus adopted a Certificate of Designation whereby a total of 2,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock, $0.01 par value per share, are reserved for issuance. Each share has a liquidation preference in the amount of $1,190.48 plus all accrued or declared but unpaid dividends. Cash dividends on the stock are non-cumulative and are paid at the option of the board of directors. If paid, the rate shall be seven percent per annum. The board does not presently intend to pay dividends on the stock. At the option of the holder, each share is convertible into 1,000 shares of common stock of Focus. On May 7, 2001, Carl Berg converted approximately $2.3 million of debt and accrued interest currently owed by Focus to Mr. Berg into 1,904 shares of Series B convertible preferred stock based on the estimated fair value of the preferred stock the date on which the related subscription agreement was executed. 9. Related Party Transactions Timothy Mahoney, who is a Focus director, is a principal of vFinance.com, Inc., the parent company to Union Atlantic Capital L.C., and a partner of Union Atlantic L.C. For the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, Focus paid Union Atlantic L.C. $83,206 and $112,226, respectively in consulting fees in connection with equity financing agreements negotiated by Union Atlantic L.C. In addition, on June 27, 2001, vFinance Capital L.C. was issued 243,833 shares of Focus common stock in lieu of investment banking fees in connection with the acquisition of Videonics Inc in January 2001. In connection with the merger, the Company accrued $251,000 for such investment banking fees, which was included within the transaction costs associated with the acquisition of Videonics. Such amount was converted into the 243,833 shares of common stock based on the trading price of the common stock as of January 12, 2001, the date on which the stockholders approved the merger. Pursuant to an agreement, in the event vFinance.com, Inc. or any of its affiliates publicly sell the shares of common stock in the market at a price below $1.03, the Company would be required to issue to vFinance.com, Inc. additional shares to make up any shortfalls, up to a maximum of 3,500,000. Such shares can be repurchased by Focus within five (5) business days from the date of issuance at the difference between the market price at the time the shares were sold by vFinance or its affiliates and $1.03. Such amount would not exceed $227,000. See also "Note 7 - Commitments - Convertible Notes," "- Note Payable to Stockholder," and "Note 8 - Series B Preferred Stock."

The accompanying notes are an integral part of these consolidated financial statements. V-6 Videonics, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements 1. Business Videonics, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated on July 3, 1986. The Company is a designer of digital video post-production equipment. The Company's products are used by videographers, business, industry, education and videophiles; they are also used in the broadcast, cable, video presentation and video conferencing markets. The Company manufactures stand-alone and personal-computer based hardware and software products that edit and mix raw video footage, add special effects and titles, and process audio and video signals. On January 16, 2001, the Company was acquired by Focus Enhancements, Inc. (see Note 14). 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Principles of consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts for Videonics, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Use of estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Revenue recognition The Company recognizes revenues, net of discounts, upon shipment of product, when a purchase order has been received, the sales price is fixed and determinable, collection of the resulting receivable is probable, and all significant obligations have been met. A provision is made to estimate customer returns and estimated warranty repair/replacement costs at the time a sale is recorded. Research and development expenditures Research and development expenditures are charged operations as incurred. Advertising The Company expenses the production costs of advertising as the expenses are incurred. The production costs of advertising consist primarily of magazine advertisements, agency fees and other direct production costs. Advertising expense for the period ended December 31, 2000 and 1999 was $293,000 and $232,000, respectively. Income taxes The Company accounts for income taxes under the liability method. Under the liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company is required to adjust its deferred tax liabilities in the period when tax rates or the provisions of the income tax laws change. Valuations allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to amounts that more likely than not are expected to be realized. Cash and equivalents Cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments with original maturities at time of purchase of three months or less. Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of standard cost (which approximates actual cost on a first-in, first-out basis) or net realizable value. Property and equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost and depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets ranging from two to five years. Leasehold improvements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the lesser of the term of the lease or the estimated useful life of the asset. V-7 Videonics, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements Impairment of Long-Lived Assets In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of," the Company evaluates its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. When the sum of the undiscounted future net cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition is less than its carrying amount, an impairment loss would be measured based on the discounted cash flows compared to the carrying amount. No impairment charge has been recorded in 2000 or 1999. Comprehensive income There were no differences between net income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss) for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2000. Concentrations of credit risk Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents and trade accounts receivable. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents with financial institutions located in California and in high grade commercial paper with original maturities of less than three months. As part of its cash management process, the Company performs periodic evaluations of the relative credit standing of these financial institutions. The Company's customer base is dispersed across many different geographic areas throughout the world and consists principally of distributors and dealers in the electronics industry. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and maintains an allowance for potential credit losses. The Company generally receives confirmed letters of credit or cash in advance of shipping to distributors located outside North America. Stock based compensation The Company accounts for stock based compensation using the intrinsic value method prescribed by APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees." Accordingly, compensation cost for stock options is measured as the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of the Company's stock at the date of the grant over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. The Company has adopted the disclosure-only provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." Net income (loss) per share The Company calculates earnings per share in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS ) No. 128 "Earnings Per Share". Basic net income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common and dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding during the period. Dilutive common equivalent shares consist of common stock issuable upon the exercise of stock options. Fair value of financial instruments Carrying amounts of certain of the Company's financial instruments including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and other accrued liabilities, and loans payable to bank and shareholder, approximate fair value due to their short maturities Recent accounting pronouncements Effective January 1, 2001, the Company adopted SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," as amended by SFAS No. 137. SFAS No. 133 requires the recognition of all derivatives in the balance sheet as either an asset or a liability measured at fair value. The adoption of SFAS No. 133 did not have an impact on the Company's financial statements. The Company currently does not utilize derivative financial instruments in its operating activities nor does it use them for trading or speculative purposes. V-8 Videonics, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements- (Continued) In June 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 that all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 be accounted for under the purchase method and addresses the initial recognition and measurement of goodwill and other intangible assets acquired in a business combination. SFAS No. 142 addresses the initial recognition and measurement of intangible assets acquired outside of a business combination and the accounting for goodwill and other intangible assets subsequent to their acquisition. SFAS No. 142 provides that intangible assets with finite useful lives be amortized and that goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives will not be amortized, but will rather be tested at least annually for impairment. The Company will adopt SFAS No. 142 for its fiscal year beginning January 1, 2002. The Company does not currently have goodwill recorded on its books and as such there will be no impact on the Company's financial statements in accordance with the adoption of this pronouncement. 3. Disposal of subsidiary and business Sale of Nova Systems On January 29, 1999, the Company completed the sale of certain assets and the assumption of certain liabilities related to its sale of Nova Systems Division ("Nova") to a privately held company in Massachusetts. The sale of Nova may provide the Company with net revenues from royalties of up to a maximum of approximately $450,000, contingent upon future sales of Nova products by the acquiring company. Royalties will be paid, to the extent due, by the acquiring company on a monthly basis from March 1999 until receipt of approximately $450,000. The Company received royalties of $144,000 and $207,000 for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999 respectively. The sale of Nova resulted in a $48,000 loss to Videonics. Sale of the German subsidiary On September 29, 1999, the Company sold its wholly owned subsidiary in Germany. The Company's German office was primarily a sales office. Revenue, net loss and assets employed by the Company's foreign subsidiary were not material to the consolidated financial statements. The Company recorded a loss of $65,000 in connection with the sale. 4.

Note Payable to Bank On November 13, 2000, Pacific Business Funding assumed a $400,000 loan from Venture Banking issued to Videonics. The loan was secured by all the Company's assets and interest was calculated at a rate of 15% per year. At December 31, 2000, an aggregate of $400,000 was outstanding under the loan. The loan was repaid in full on July 16, 2001. See Note 8 "Line of Credit" for information regarding Venture Banking Group. 6. Note Payable to Shareholder Note payable to shareholder of $1,035,000 at December 31, 2000 and 1999, is unsecured, bears interest at 8% per year, and was originally due on January 16, 2002. On May 7, 2001, the $1,035,000 and approximately $169,000 of accrued interest due under the note were converted into 1,012 shares of Focus Enhancements, Inc. preferred stock (see Note 14). 7. Commitments and Contingencies The Company leases a building for its principal facility under an operating lease which expires on July 31, 2002. Under the terms of the lease, the Company is responsible for utilities, taxes, insurance and maintenance. At December 31, 2000, future minimum lease payments under all non-cancelable operating leases were as follows (in thousands): 2001........ $ 435,875 2002........ $ 259,875 Rent expense for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999 amounted to $458,000 and $370,000 respectively. V-10 Videonics, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements- (Continued) 8. Line of Credit In August 1999, the Company obtained a $1.0 million asset based line of credit from Venture Banking Group, a division of Cupertino National Bank, secured by the Company's assets. Interest on any advances will be calculated at a rate of 1.5% above prime. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company is required to maintain certain financial ratios and meet other covenants, including those related to net worth, profitability and indebtedness. The maturity date of this revolving facility was August 25, 2001. In connection with this agreement the Company issued 95,000 fully vested warrants to purchase the Company's common stock to the bank, at an exercise price of $0.65. These warrants expire on September 15, 2002. The Company recognized $45,000 (the fair value of the warrants issued using the Black-Scholes model) as prepaid financing costs during the quarter ended September 1999. This amount is being amortized to interest expense over the term of the loan. In November 2000, Venture Banking Group transferred the loan to Pacific Business Funding, another division of Cupertino National Bank, and the outstanding line of credit was terminated. Accordingly, the remaining unamortized value of the warrants was charged to interest expense. Interest expense associated with the amortization of warrants totaled $37,000 for the year ended December 31, 2000. See Note 5, "Loan Payable to Bank" for further detail on the loan with Pacific Business Funding. 9.

(11,325) (10,400) -------- -------- Net deferred tax asset ....................... $ -- $ -- -------- -------- V-11 Videonics, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements- (Continued) At December 31, 2000, the Company has federal and state net operating losses of approximately $22,000,000 and $8,000,000, respectively, which expire in 2020 and 2015, respectively. The Company also has federal and state tax credit carryforwards of $1,100,000 and $700,000, respectively, which expire in 2019. In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, a valuation allowance must be established for a deferred tax asset if it's more likely than not that a tax benefit will not be realized from the asset in the future. The Company has established a valuation allowance to the extent of its deferred tax assets since it is not certain that a benefit can be realized in the future due to the Company's operating losses. The Company's valuation allowance increased from $10,400,000 at December 31, 1999 to $11,325,000 at December 31, 2000. Current tax laws impose substantial restrictions on the utilization of net operating loss and credit carryforwards in the event of an "ownership" change, as defined under Internal Revenue Code Section 382. In the event of an ownership change, the Company's ability to utilize its carryforwards could be limited. 10. Net Loss Per Share In accordance with the disclosure requirements of SFAS 128, a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of basic and diluted net income (loss) per share is provided as follows (in thousands, except per share amounts): 2000 1999 --------- --------- Numerator - basic and diluted Net loss.................................... $ (3,120) $ (2,634) --------- --------- Net loss available to common stockholders... $ (3,120) $ (2,634) --------- --------- Denominator - basic and diluted Weighted average common shares.............. 5,898 5,866 --------- --------- Basic and diluted net loss per share outstanding................................ $ (.53) $ (.45) --------- --------- The following table summarizes common stock equivalents that are not included in the denominator used in the diluted net loss per share calculation because to do so would be antidilutive for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999 (in thousands): 2000 1999 ------- ------ Options to purchase common stock 116,735 57,209 Warrants to purchase common stock 26,444 5,157 ------- ------ Total common stock equivalents 143,179 62,366 ------- ------ 11. Shareholders' Equity At December 31, 2000, the Company has reserved 1,000,000 shares of common stock for issuance under its 1996 Amended Stock Option Plan and reserved 900,000 shares of common stock for issuance under its 1987 Stock Option Plan (collectively "the Plans"). The 1987 Plan had been set to terminate, in accordance with its terms, on January 1, 1997. Effective May 1997, the Company's Board of Directors authorized the amendment of the 1987 Plan to permit the grant of non-statutory stock options previously granted under the 1987 Plan that have expired or terminated. The Plans provide for the granting of incentive stock options to officers and employees of the Company and non-qualified incentive stock options to employees, officers and directors of the Company at prices not less than the fair market value of the Company's common stock. Options generally vest over a four year period and are canceled 90 days after termination of employment.

The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions by subgroup: 2000 1999 ---- ---- Risk-free interest rate... 5.43%-6.65% 5.36%-6.38% Expected life............. 7 7 Expected dividends........ -- -- Volatility................ 1.40 1.41 The weighted average expected life was calculated based on the vesting period and the exercise behavior of the Company's employees. The risk-free interest rate was calculated in accordance with the grant date and estimated expected life.

12. Segment Information In 1998, Videonics adopted SFAS 131 " Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information." At that time it identified two reportable segments--(1) Video Production and (2) Signal Processing. The accounting policies of the segments were the same as those described in the "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies." Videonics evaluated the performance of its segments based on revenue and operating income. Videonics was organized primarily on the basis of three separate product lines. Two of its product lines were aggregated into the "Video Production" segment. This segment manufactures and sells video post-production equipment into broadcast, cable, industry and home producer markets. The other segment, "Signal Processing" represented the Company's Nova Division that manufactured and sold signal conversion and processing equipment primarily into television and cable studios. On January 29, 1999 the Company sold its Nova Division and, since that time, operates in only one reportable segment.
