NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)


NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
     We develop and sell devices that use spintronics, a nanotechnology that relies on electron spin rather than electron charge to acquire, store, and transmit information.

NOTE 2. INTERIM FINANCIAL INFORMATION
     The accompanying unaudited financial statements of NVE Corporation are consistent with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and reporting with Securities and Exchange Commission rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, these financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal and recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial statements. Although we believe that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading, it is suggested that these unaudited financial statements be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the notes included in our latest annual financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2009. The results of operations for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full fiscal year ending March 31, 2010.

NOTE 3. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
     In May 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 165, Subsequent Events. SFAS No. 165 establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. We applied the requirements SFAS No. 165 beginning with this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2009. The application did not result in a significant impact on our financial statements. We evaluated all events or transactions that occurred after June 30, 2009 up through July 22, 2009, the date we issued these financial statements. During this period we did not have any material recognizable subsequent events.

     In April 2009, the FASB released FASB Staff Position (FSP) SFAS Nos. 107-1, 115-2, and 157-4. FSP SFAS No. 107-1 requires publicly-traded companies to include disclosures about the fair value of their financial instruments when issuing summarized financial information for interim reporting purposes. FSP SFAS No. 115-2 amends the other-than-temporary impairment guidance for debt securities to make the guidance more operational and to improve the presentation and disclosure of other-than-temporary impairments of debt and equity securities in the financial statements. FSP SFAS No. 157-4 provides additional guidance for estimating fair value in accordance with SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased and includes guidance on identifying circumstances that indicate a transaction is not orderly. We adopted the Staff Positions at the beginning of fiscal 2010 and the adoption did not result in a significant impact on our financial statements.

     In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements. SFAS No. 157 establishes a framework for measuring fair value, clarifies the definition of fair value, and requires additional disclosures about fair-value measurements. SFAS No. 157 applies only to fair value measurements that are already required or permitted by other accounting standards (except for measurements of share-based payments) and is expected to increase the consistency of those measurements. SFAS No. 157, as issued, was effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. In February 2008, the FASB issued FSP SFAS No. 157-2, Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157, that deferred the effective date of SFAS No. 157 for one year for certain nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities. Accordingly, we adopted certain parts of SFAS No. 157 at the beginning of fiscal 2009 and the remaining parts at the beginning of fiscal 2010. Neither the partial adoption of SFAS No. 157 in fiscal 2009 or the adoption of the remaining parts in fiscal 2010 resulted in a significant impact on our financial statements.

NOTE 4. NET INCOME PER SHARE

     We calculate our net income per share in accordance with SFAS No. 128, Earnings per Share. Basic earnings per share are computed based on the weighted-average number of common shares issued and outstanding during each period. Diluted net income per share amounts assume conversion, exercise or issuance of all potential common stock instruments (stock options and warrants). Stock options and warrants totaling 1,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 and 21,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2008 were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the exercise prices of the options and warrants were greater than the market price of the common stock. The following table reflects the components of common shares outstanding in accordance with SFAS No. 128:

Quarter Ended June 30

    Gross unrealized losses were attributable to our corporate and municipal bonds. The gross unrealized losses were primarily due to interest rate fluctuations and market-price movements. Although several of the bonds we hold were downgraded by Moody’s or Standard and Poor’s during the quarter ended June 30, 2009, all of the bonds that were rated by Moody’s or Standard and Poor’s had investment-grade credit ratings, and a substantial majority were rated A3/A- or better. For each bond with an unrealized loss, we determined that it was not probable that we would not collect all amounts due. In reaching this determination, we considered factors including the credit ratings of the bonds, the underlying ratings of insured bonds, whether the bonds were prefunded, and historical default rates for securities of comparable credit rating. Because we determined that it was not probable that we would not collect all amounts due, and because we have the ability and intent to hold our bonds until a recovery of fair value, which may be maturity, we did not consider any of our investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at June 30, 2009.

NOTE 6. COMPREHENSIVE INCOME
     The components of comprehensive income are as follows:

 Quarter Ended June 30

  NOTE 8. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
     Stock-based compensation recognized under SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment, was $5,598 for each of the first quarters of fiscal 2010 and fiscal 2009. We calculate the share-based compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the vesting periods of the related share-based awards.

NOTE 9. INCOME TAXES
     Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Tax provisions of $116,941 for the the first quarter of fiscal 2010 and $236,524 for the first quarter of fiscal 2009 were credited to “Additional paid-in capital.”

     At June 30, 2009 we had no unrecognized tax benefits and we do not expect any significant unrecognized tax benefits within twelve months of the reporting date. We recognize interest and penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. As of June 30, 2009 we had no accrued interest related to uncertain tax positions. The years 1999 through 2008 remain open to examination by the major taxing jurisdictions to which we are subject.

NOTE 10. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
     SFAS No. 157 establishes a framework for measuring fair value, clarifies the definition of fair value and expands disclosures about fair-value measurements. SFAS No. 157 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability. Fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined using assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. SFAS No. 157 establishes a valuation hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurements. The categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The categories within the valuation hierarchy are described below:

     Level 1 – Financial instruments with quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Our Level 1 financial instruments consist of publicly-traded marketable debt securities that are classified as available-for-sale. On the balance sheets, available-for-sale securities are classified as “Marketable securities, short term” and “Marketable securities, long term.” The fair value of our available-for-sale securities was $39,367,094 at June 30, 2009 and $32,446,748 at March 31, 2009.

     Level 2 – Financial instruments with quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities. Level 2 fair value measurements are determined using either prices for similar instruments or inputs that are either directly or indirectly observable, such as interest rates. We do not have any financial assets or liabilities being measured at fair value that are classified as Level 2 financial instruments.

     Level 3 – Inputs to the fair value measurement are unobservable inputs or valuation techniques. We do not have any financial assets or liabilities being measured at fair value that are classified as Level 3 financial instruments.

NOTE 11. STOCK REPURCHASE PLAN
     On January 21, 2009 we announced that our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $2,500,000 of our Common Stock. The repurchase program may be modified or discontinued at any time without notice. We did not repurchase any of our Common Stock during the quarter ended June 30, 2009.

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

Forward-looking statements

     Some of the statements made in this Report or in the documents incorporated by reference in this Report and in other materials filed or to be filed by us with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) as well as information included in verbal or written statements made by us constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements are subject to the safe harbor provisions of the reform act. Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of the terminology such as may, will, expect, anticipate, intend, believe, estimate, should, or continue, or the negatives of these terms or other variations on these words or comparable terminology. To the extent that this Report contains forward-looking statements regarding the financial condition, operating results, business prospects or any other aspect of NVE, you should be aware that our actual financial condition, operating results and business performance may differ materially from that projected or estimated by us in the forward-looking statements. We have attempted to identify, in context, some of the factors that we currently believe may cause actual future experience and results to differ from their current expectations. These differences may be caused by a variety of factors, including but not limited to an uncertain economic environment, risks associated with our marketable securities, competition including entry of new competitors, progress in research and development activities by us and others, variations in costs that are beyond our control, adverse legal proceedings, lower sales, failure of suppliers to meet our requirements, failure to obtain new customers, inability to carry out marketing and sales plans, inability to meet customer technical requirements, inability to consummate license agreements, ineligibility for SBIR awards, loss of key executives, and other specific risks that may be alluded to in this Report or in the documents incorporated by reference in this Report.

     Further information regarding our risks and uncertainties are contained in Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2009.

     Total revenue for the quarter ended June 30, 2009 (the first quarter of fiscal 2010) increased 41% to $6,834,532 compared to $4,863,786 for the quarter ended June 30, 2008 (the first quarter of fiscal 2009). The increase was due to a 22% increase in product sales and a 311% increase in contract research and development revenue. The increase in product sales was due to increased volume from the addition of new customers and increased purchase volume by existing customers. The increase in research and development revenue was due to new contracts. The increase in research and development revenue may not be representative of future trends and there can be no assurance of additional or follow-on contracts for expired or completed contracts.

     Gross profit margin increased to 72% of revenue for the first quarter of fiscal 2010 compared to 71% for the first quarter of fiscal 2009. The increase was due to higher margins on both product sales and contract research and development revenue.

     Selling, general, and administrative expense for the first quarter of fiscal 2010 increased 20% compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2009, primarily due to increased salaries, increased performance-based compensation, and increased commissions.

     Research and development expense decreased 31% for the first quarter of fiscal 2010 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2009 due to an increase in contract research and development obligations, which caused resources to be reallocated from expensed research and development activities. The decrease in research and development expense may not be representative of future expense trends. Our research and development expense can fluctuate significantly depending on staffing, project requirements, and contract research and development obligations.

     Interest and other income increased 44% to $370,025 for the first quarter of fiscal 2010 compared to $257,835 for first quarter of fiscal 2009. The increase was due to an increase in interest-bearing marketable securities.

     The provision for income taxes was $1,471,158, or 33% of income before taxes, for the first quarter of fiscal 2010 compared to $896,057, or 32% of income before taxes, for the first quarter of fiscal 2009. The effective tax rate can fluctuate due to a number of factors, some of which are outside our control.

     The 54% increase in net income in the first quarter of fiscal 2010 compared to the prior-year quarter was primarily due to increases in product sales, contract research and development revenue, and interest income.

Liquidity and capital resources

     At June 30, 2009 we had $40,618,655 in cash plus short-term and long-term marketable securities compared to $34,321,811 at March 31, 2009. Our entire portfolio of short-term and long-term marketable securities is classified as available for sale. The increase in cash plus marketable securities in the first quarter of fiscal 2010 was primarily due to $4,792,111 in net cash provided by operating activities and a $1,270,859 net increase in market value of marketable securities due to market-price increases.

     Accrued payroll and other increased $1,272,624 primarily due to the accrual of Federal and state income taxes.

     We currently believe our working capital is adequate for our needs at least for the next 12 months.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
     The primary objective of our investment activities is to preserve principal while at the same time maximizing after-tax yields without significantly increasing risk. To achieve this objective, we maintain our portfolio of cash equivalents and marketable securities in a variety of securities including government agency obligations, municipal obligations, corporate obligations, and money market funds. Short-term and long-term marketable securities are generally classified as available-for-sale and consequently are recorded on the balance sheet at fair value with unrealized gains or losses reported as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income, net of estimated tax. Marketable securities as of June 30, 2009 had remaining maturities between 10 and 60 months. Our short-term and long-term marketable securities had a fair market value of $39,367,094 at June 30, 2009, representing approximately 82% of our total assets. We have not used derivative financial instruments in our investment portfolio.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
     Management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has performed an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. This evaluation included consideration of the controls, processes and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

     During the quarter ended June 30, 2009, there was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
