SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. You can find many (but not all) of these statements by looking for words such as “approximates,” “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “intends,” “plans” “would,” “may” or other similar expressions in this Report. We claim the protection of the safe harbor contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. We caution investors that any forward-looking statements presented in this Report, or which we may make orally or in writing from time to time, are based on the beliefs of, assumptions made by, and information currently available to, us. Such statements are based on assumptions and the actual outcome will be affected by known and unknown risks, trends, uncertainties and factors that are beyond our control or ability to predict. Although we believe that our assumptions are reasonable, they are not guarantees of future performance and some will inevitably prove to be incorrect. As a result, our actual future results can be expected to differ from our expectations, and those differences may be material. Accordingly, investors should use caution in relying on past forward-looking statements, which are based on known results and trends at the time they are made, to anticipate future results or trends.

Some of the risks and uncertainties that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied by forward-looking statements include the following: limited assets and a history of losses; limited number of potential customers; limited number of suppliers for some of our components; no significant backlog from quarter to quarter; our market is characterized by rapidly advancing technology. For further discussion of these and other factors see Part I, Item 2, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and Part II, Item 1A.” Risk Factors” in this Report and in our 2006 Annual Report on Form 10-K .

This Report and all subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us or any person acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained or referred to in this section. We do not undertake any obligation to release publicly any revisions to our forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this Report .

NOTES TO UNAUDITED INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. General

Superconductor Technologies Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in Delaware on May 11, 1987 and maintains its headquarters in Santa Barbara, California. The Company operates in a single industry segment, the research, development, manufacture and marketing of high-performance infrastructure products for wireless voice and data applications. The Company’s commercial products are divided into three product offerings: SuperLink (high-temperature superconducting filters), AmpLink (high performance, ground-mounted amplifiers) and SuperPlex (high performance multiplexers). The Company’s research and development contracts are used as a source of funds for its commercial technology development. From 1987 to 1997, the Company was engaged primarily in research and development and generated revenues primarily from government research contracts.

The Company continues to be involved as either contractor or subcontractor on a number of contracts with the United States government. These contracts have been and continue to provide a significant source of revenues for the Company. For the three months ended March 31, 2007 and April 1, 2006, government related contracts account for 16% and 7%, respectively, of the Company’s net revenues.

The unaudited consolidated financial information furnished herein has been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and reflects all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations for the periods presented.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates and such differences may be material to the financial statements. This quarterly report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2007 are not necessarily indicative of results for the entire fiscal year ending December 31, 2007.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

In 2006, the Company incurred a net loss of $29,624,000 and negative cash flows from operations of $7,283,000. In the first quarter of 2007, the Company incurred a net loss of $2,937,000 and negative cash flows from operations of $2,306,000.

Our principal sources of liquidity consist of existing cash balances and funds expected to be generated from future operations. Based on our current forecasts, our cash resources may not be sufficient to fund our planned operations for the remainder of 2007. We believe one of the key factors to our liquidity in 2007 will be our ability to successfully execute on our plans to increase sales levels in a highly concentrated industry where we experience significant fluctuations in sales from quarter to quarter. Our cash requirements will also depend on numerous other variable factors, including the rate of growth of sales, the timing and levels of products purchased, payment terms and credit limits from manufacturers, and the timing and level of accounts receivable collections. As a result of the uncertainty of these many factors, the Company cannot give assurances that it will be able to continue operations in the absence of raising additional capital. Accordingly, the Company intends to raise funds in the next six months to continue operations in the absence of an improvement in its sales.

We cannot assure you that additional financing (public or private) will be available on acceptable terms or at all. If we issue additional equity securities to raise funds, the ownership percentage of our existing stockholders would be reduced. New investors may demand rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of existing holders of common stock. If we cannot raise any needed funds, we might be forced to make further substantial reductions in our operating expenses, which could adversely affect our ability to implement our current business plan and our viability as a company.

The Company’s financial statements have been prepared assuming that it will continue as a going concern. The factors described above raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from this uncertainty.

Principles of Consolidation

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Superconductor Technologies Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated from the consolidated financial statements.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. Cash and cash equivalents are maintained with quality financial institutions and from time to time exceed FDIC limits.

Accounts Receivable

The Company sells predominantly to entities in the wireless communications industry and to entities of the United States government. The Company grants uncollateralized credit to its customers. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers before granting credit. Trade accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. The allowance for doubtful accounts is our best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in our existing accounts receivable. The Company determines the allowance based on historical write-off experience. Past due balances are reviewed for collectibility. Accounts balances are charged off against the allowance when the Company deems it is probable the receivable will not be recovered. The Company does not have any off balance sheet credit exposure related to its customers.

Revenue Recognition

Commercial revenues are principally derived from the sale of the Company’s SuperLink, AmpLink, and SuperPlex products and are recognized once all of the following conditions have been met: a) an authorized purchase order has been received in writing, b) customer‘s credit worthiness has been established, c) shipment of the product has occurred, d) title has transferred, and e) if stipulated by the contract, customer acceptance has occurred and all significant vendor obligations, if any, have been satisfied.

Contract revenues are principally generated under research and development contracts. Contract revenues are recognized utilizing the percentage-of-completion method measured by the relationship of costs incurred to total estimated contract costs. If the current contract estimate were to indicate a loss, utilizing the funded amount of the contract, a provision would be made for the total anticipated loss. Revenues from research related activities are derived primarily from contracts with agencies of the United States Government. Credit risk related to accounts receivable arising from such contracts is considered minimal. These contracts include cost-plus, fixed price and cost sharing arrangements and are generally short-term in nature.

All payments to the Company for work performed on contracts with agencies of the U.S. Government are subject to adjustment upon audit by the Defense Contract Audit Agency. Based on historical experience and review of current projects in process, management believes that the audits will not have a significant effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company. The Defense Contract Audit Agency has completed audits of the Company through 2003.

Warranties

The Company offers warranties generally ranging from one to five years, depending on the product and negotiated terms of purchase agreements with its customers. Such warranties require the Company to repair or replace defective product returned to the Company during such warranty period at no cost to the customer. An estimate by the Company for warranty related costs is recorded by the Company at the time of sale based on its actual historical product return rates and expected repair costs. Such costs have been within management’s expectations.

Guarantees

In connection with the sales and manufacturing of its commercial products, the Company indemnifies, without limit or term, its customers and contract manufacturers against all claims, suits, demands, damages, liabilities, expenses, judgments, settlements and penalties arising from actual or alleged infringement or misappropriation of any intellectual property relating to its products or other claims arising from its products. The Company cannot reasonably develop an estimate of the maximum potential amount of payments that might be made under its guarantees because of the uncertainty as to whether a

claim might arise and how much it might total. Historically, the Company has not incurred any expenses related to these guarantees.

Research and Development Costs

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred and include salary, facility, depreciation and material expenses. Research and development costs incurred solely in connection with research and development contracts are charged to contract research and development expense. Other research and development costs are charged to other research and development expense.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market, with costs primarily determined using standard costs, which approximate actual costs utilizing the first-in, first-out method. Provision for potentially obsolete or slow moving inventory is made based on management’s analysis of inventory levels and sales forecasts. Costs associated with idle capacity are expensed immediately.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Equipment is depreciated using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives ranging from three to five years. Leasehold improvements and assets financed under capital leases are amortized over the shorter of their useful lives or the lease term. Furniture and fixtures are depreciated over seven years. Expenditures for additions and major improvements are capitalized. Expenditures for minor tooling, repairs and maintenance and minor improvements are charged to expense as incurred. When property or equipment is retired or otherwise disposed of, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts. Gains or losses from retirements and disposals are recorded in selling, general and administration expenses.

Patents, Licenses and Purchased Technology

Patents and licenses are recorded at cost and are amortized using the straight-line method over the shorter of their estimated useful lives or approximately seventeen years. Purchased technology acquired through the acquisition of Conductus, Inc. is recorded at its estimated fair value and is amortized using the straight-line method over seven years.

Goodwill

Goodwill represented the excess of purchase price over fair value of net assets acquired in connection with the acquisition of Conductus in December 2002. Conductus was acquired primarily for the synergies the acquisition would bring to our existing business of developing, manufacturing and marketing products for the commercial wireless telecommunications business and for the synergies it would have on the Company’s fund raising abilities.

As of July 1, 2006 we concluded that the Company’s fair market value was less than its net assets excluding goodwill. Accordingly, we recorded a full write-down of the goodwill ($20.1 million) in the second quarter 2006. The Company’s balance sheet includes no goodwill at March 31, 2007.

Long-Lived Assets

The realizability of long-lived assets is evaluated periodically as events or circumstances indicate a possible inability to recover the carrying amount. Long-lived assets that will no longer be used in business are written off in the period identified since they will no longer generate any positive cash flows for the Company. Periodically, long lived assets that will continue to be used by the Company are evaluated for recoverability. Such evaluation is based on various analyses, including cash flow and profitability projections. The analyses necessarily involve significant management judgment. In the event the projected undiscounted cash flows are less than net book value of the assets, the carrying value of the assets will be written down to their estimated fair value. The Company completed such an analysis during fiscal 2006 and determined that no write down was necessary.

Restructuring Expenses

Liability for costs associated with an exit or disposal activity are recognized when the liability is incurred.

Loss Contingencies

In the normal course of business the Company is subject to claims and litigation, including allegations of patent infringement. Liabilities relating to these claims are recorded when it is determined that a loss is probable and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. The costs of defending the Company in such matters are expensed as incurred. Insurance proceeds recoverable are recorded when deemed probable.

Income Taxes

In July 2006 the FASB issued Interpretation (“FIN”) No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes — An Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 provides detailed guidance for the financial statement recognition, measurement and disclosure of uncertain tax positions recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements in accordance with SFAS 109. Income tax positions must meet a more-likely-than-not recognition threshold at the effective date to be recognized upon the adoption of FIN 48 and in subsequent periods. The Company adopted FIN 48 effective January 1, 2007, and the provisions of FIN 48 will be applied to all income tax positions commencing from that date. There was no material impact from this adoption. As of December 31, 2006, we had net operating loss carryforwards for federal and state income tax purposes of approximately $275.1 million and $143.4 million, respectively. Due to the uncertainty surrounding their realization, we have recorded a full valuation allowance against our net deferred tax assets. Accordingly, no deferred tax asset has been recorded in the accompanying balance sheet.

Marketing Costs

All costs related to marketing and advertising the Company’s products are expensed as incurred or at the time the advertising takes place. Advertising costs were not material in each of the quarters ended March 31, 2007 and April 1, 2006 .

Net Loss Per Share

Basic and diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding in each period. Potentially dilutive shares are not included in the calculation of diluted loss per share because their effect is anti-dilutive.

Stock-based Compensation

Effective January 1, 2006, we adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123(revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS No. 123(R)”). Under this provision, the share-based compensation cost recognized beginning January 1, 2006 includes compensation cost for (i) all share-based payments granted prior to, but not vested as of January 1, 2006, based on the grant date fair value originally estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” (“SFAS No. 123”)and (ii) all share-based payments granted subsequent to January 1, 2006, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 123(R). Compensation cost under SFAS No. 123(R) is recognized ratably using the straight-line attribution method over the expected vesting period. Prior periods are not restated under this transition method.

For the quarters ended April 1, 2006 and March 31, 2007 the weighted average fair value has been estimated at the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The following are the significant weighted average assumptions used for estimating the fair value under our stock option plans:


	Three Months Ended
	April 1, 2006			March 31, 2007
Expected life in years		4.0			4.0
Risk free interest rate		4.3	%		4.8	%
Expected volatility		95	%		95	%
Dividend yield		0	%		0	%

The expected life was based on the contractual term of the options and the expected employee exercise behavior. Typically, options to our employees have a 4 year vesting term and a 10 year contractual term. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U. S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with a remaining term equal to the expected option life assumed at the grant date. The future volatility is based on our 4 year historical volatility. The Company used an expected dividend yield of 0% because the Company has never paid a dividend and does not anticipate paying dividends. The Company assumed a 10% forfeiture rate based on historical stock option cancellation rates over the last 4 years.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 periods. The significant estimates in the preparation of the financial statements relate to the assessment of the carrying amount of accounts receivable, inventory, intangibles, goodwill, estimated provisions for warranty costs, accruals for restructuring and lease abandonment costs, income taxes and litigation. Actual results could differ from those estimates and such differences may be material to the financial statements.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The Company estimates that the carrying amount of the debt approximates fair value based on the Company’s current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements.

Comprehensive Income (Loss)

The Company has no items of other comprehensive income (loss) in any period other than its net loss.

Segment Information

The Company operates in a single business segment, the research, development, manufacture and marketing of high performance products used in cellular base stations to maximize the performance of wireless telecommunications networks by improving the quality of uplink signals from mobile wireless devices. Net commercial product revenues are primarily derived from the sales of the Company’s SuperLink, AmpLink and SuperPlex products. We currently sell most of our products directly to wireless network operators in the United States. Net revenues derived principally from government research and development contracts are presented separately on the statement of operations for all periods presented.

Certain Risks and Uncertainties

The Company has continued to incur operating losses. The Company’s long-term prospects and execution of its business plan are dependent upon the continued and increased market acceptance for the product.

The Company currently sells most of its products directly to wireless network operators in the United States and its product sales have historically been concentrated in a small number of customers. In 2006, the Company had three customers that represented 44%, 20% and 16% of total net revenues. At December 31, 2006, these three customers together represented 66% of accounts receivable. In the three months ended March 31, 2007, the Company had one customer that represented 70% of total net revenues. At March 31, 2007, this customer represented 73% of accounts receivable. The loss of or reduction in sales, or the inability to collect outstanding accounts receivable, from any of these customers could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

The Company currently relies on one supplier for purchases of high quality substrates for growth of high-temperature superconductor films and a limited number of suppliers for other key components of its products. The loss of any of these suppliers could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

In connection with the sales of its commercial products, the Company indemnifies, without limit or term, its customers against all claims, suits, demands, damages, liabilities, expenses, judgments, settlements and penalties arising from actual or alleged infringement or misappropriation of any intellectual property relating to its products or other claims arising from its products. The Company cannot reasonably develop an estimate of the maximum potential amount of payments that might be made under its guarantee because of the uncertainty as to whether a claim might arise and how much it might total.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS 157”), which defines fair value, establishes a framework for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The Statement applies whenever other statements require or permit assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value. SFAS 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. We are currently evaluating the impact this Statement will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115” (“SFAS 159”). SFAS 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses related to these financial instruments reported in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. SFAS 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. We are currently evaluating the impact this Statement will have on our consolidated financial statements.

3. Short Term Borrowings

The Company has a line of credit with a bank. The line of credit expires June 15, 2007 and is structured as a sale of accounts receivable. The agreement provides for the sale of up to $5 million of eligible accounts receivable, with advances to the Company totaling 80% of the receivables sold. Advances under the agreement are collateralized by all the Company’s assets. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company continues to service the sold receivables and is subject to recourse provisions. Advances bear interest at the prime rate (8.25% at March 31, 2007) plus 2.50% subject to a minimum monthly charge. There was no amount outstanding under this borrowing facility at March 31, 2007.

The agreement contains representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants and events of default customary for financings of this type. The failure to comply with these provisions, or the occurrence of any one of the events of default, would prevent any further borrowings and would generally require the repayment of any outstanding borrowings. Such representations, warranties and events of default include (a) non-payment of debt and interest thereunder, (b) non-compliance with terms of the agreement covenants, (c) insolvency or bankruptcy, (d) material adverse change, (e) merger or consolidation where the Company’s shareholders do not hold a majority of the voting rights of the surviving entity, (f) transactions outside the normal course of business, or (g) payment of dividends.

4. Notes Receivable From Stockholder

Mr. Shalvoy, a former director and stockholder, executed two notes aggregating $820,244 in principal in connection with the exercise in December 2000 of two options to purchase Conductus, Inc. common stock prior to our acquisition of Conductus, Inc. in December 2002. Through the third quarter of 2005, we carried both notes as assets on our balance sheet. In the fourth quarter of 2005 to collect both notes, we filed a lawsuit against Mr. Shalvoy and recorded a reserve for the value of the notes (principal plus accrued interest) in excess of the market value of the collateral securing the notes. On March 2, 2007, we entered into a Settlement Agreement and Mutual Release of All Claims with Mr. Shalvoy to settle the lawsuit, under which we received $610,000 in April 2007 and rescinded Mr. Shalvoy’s second purported option exercise including cancellation of the related note.

5. Stockholders’ Equity

The Company implemented a one (1) for ten (10) reverse split of its common stock effective as of the open of business on March 13, 2006. In the reverse split, each ten shares of issued and outstanding common stock were converted automatically into one share of common stock. No fractional shares were issued in connection with the reverse stock split, and the Company paid cash in lieu of fractional shares based on a post-split value of $4.00 per share. The number of outstanding shares of common

stock was reduced from approximately 124.8 million as of February 28, 2006 to approximately 12.5 million shares immediately after the split. The reverse split also had a proportionate affect on all stock options and warrants outstanding as of March 13, 2006. The Company accounted for the split by transferring approximately $113,000 from common stock par value to capital in excess of par value at December 31, 2005. All share quantities and per share amounts in this report have been adjusted accordingly.

Stock Options

We currently have one active stock option plan, 2003 Equity Incentive Plan. Under the 2003 Equity Incentive Plan, stock awards may consist of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards, performance awards, and performance share awards. Stock awards may be made to directors, key employees, consultants, and non-employee directors of the Company. Stock options granted under these plans must be granted at prices no less than 100% of the market value on the date of grant. Generally, stock options become exercisable in installments over a minimum of four years, beginning one year after the date of grant, and expire not more than ten years from the date of grant, with the exception of 10% or greater stockholders which may have options granted at prices no less than the market value on the date of grant, and expire not more than five years from the date of grant. The Company expects to issue new shares to cover stock option exercises and has no plans to repurchase shares. There were no stock option exercises in 2006 or in the three months ended March 31, 2007.

As a result of adopting SFAS 123R, the impact to the Consolidated Statement of Operations for the quarter ended March 31, 2007 and April 1, 2006 on net income was $34,000 and $0.003 on basic and diluted earnings per share and $51,000 and $0.004 on basic and diluted earnings per share respectively. No stock compensation cost was capitalized during either period. The weighted-average fair value at the grant date for options issued in the first quarter of 2007 was $1.30 per share versus $3.48 per share in the first quarter of 2006. The total compensation cost related to non-vested awards not yet recognized is $190,000 and the weighted-average period over which the cost is expected to be recognized is 1.3 years in the first quarter of 2007 versus $167,000 and 1.2 years in the first quarter of 2006.

The following is a summary of stock option transactions under the Company’s stock option plans at March 31, 2007:


						Weighted				Weighted
						Average		Number of		Average
	Number of					Exercise		Options		Exercise
	Shares			Price Per Share		Price		Exercisable		Price
Balance at December 31, 2006		1,154,941		$	1.43 - $493.75	$	38.33		1,067,296	$	41.13
Granted		5,300		$	1.79 - $ 2.11	$	1.88
Exercised		—			—		—
Canceled		(13,385	)	$	8.00 - $272.90	$	39.94

Balance at March 31, 2007		1,146,856		$	1.43 - $493.75	$	38.15		1,057,618	$	41.03

The outstanding options expire by the end of January 2017. The weighted-average contractual term of options outstanding is 6.0 years and the weighted-average contractual term of stock options currently exercisable is slightly less than 6 years. The exercise prices for these options range from $1.43 to $493.75 per share, for an aggregate exercise price of approximately $43.7 million. At March 31, 2007 only 3,200 shares, with an intrinsic value of $562, of outstanding stock options had an exercise price less than the current market value. None of these were exercisable.

Restricted Stock Awards

In July 2006 the Company, for the first time, issued restricted stock awards. A total of 331,000 shares were granted and will fully vest in one single installment on the second anniversary of the grant date in July 2008. The per share weighted average grant-date fair value was $1.50. A 10% forfeiture rate was assumed.

The impact to the Consolidated Statement of Operations for the quarter ended March 31, 2007 was an expense of $56,000 and $0.004 on basic and diluted earnings per share. No stock compensation cost was capitalized during the period. The total compensation cost related to non-vested awards not yet recognized is $298,000 and the weighted-average period over which the cost is expected to be recognized is 1.3 years.

Warrants

The following is a summary of outstanding warrants at March 31, 2007:

**		The terms of these warrants contain anti-dilution adjustment provisions.

6. Legal Proceedings

Settlement of Litigation

We filed a lawsuit in the California Superior Court (Case No. 1186812) against Mr. Shalvoy, a former director and stockholder, in the fourth quarter of 2005 to collect amounts due under two notes aggregating $820,244 in principal in connection with the exercise in December 2000 of two options to purchase Conductus, Inc. common stock prior to our acquisition of Conductus, Inc. in December 2002. On March 2, 2007, we entered into a Settlement Agreement and Mutual Release of All Claims with Mr. Shalvoy to settle the lawsuit, under which we received $610,000 in April 2007 and rescinded Mr. Shalvoy’s second purported option exercise including cancellation of the related note.

7. Earnings Per Share

The computation of per share amounts for the three month periods ended April 1, 2006 and March 31, 2007 is based on the average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Options and warrants to purchase 2,026,776 and 1,935,908 shares of common stock during the three month periods ended April 1, 2006 and March 31, 2007, respectively, were not considered in the computation of diluted earnings per share because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

8. Commitments and Contingencies

Operating Leases

The Company leases its offices and production facilities under non-cancelable operating leases that expire at various times over the next six years. Generally, these leases contain escalation clauses for increases in annual renewal options and require the Company to pay utilities, insurance, taxes and other operating expenses.

For the three months ended April 1, 2006 and March 31, 2007, rent expense was $291,000 and $273,000, respectively.

Capital Leases

The Company leases certain property and equipment under a capital lease arrangement that expires in 2007. The lease bears interest at 14.95%.

Patents and Licenses

The Company has entered into various licensing agreements requiring royalty payments ranging from 0.13% to 2.5% of specified product sales. Certain of these agreements contain provisions for the payment of guaranteed or minimum royalty amounts. In the event that the Company fails to pay minimum annual royalties, these licenses may automatically become non-exclusive or be terminated. These royalty obligations terminate in 2009 to 2020. For the three months ended April 1, 2006 and March 31, 2007, royalty expense totaled $38,000 and $59,000, respectively. Under the terms of certain royalty agreements,

royalty payments made may be subject to audit. There have been no audits to date and the Company does not expect any possible future audit adjustments to be significant.

The minimum lease payments under operating and capital leases and license obligations are as follows:


			Operating
Year ending December 31,	Licenses		Leases		Capital Leases
Remainder of 2007	$	150,000	$	959,000	$	9,000

9. Contractual Guarantees and Indemnities

During its normal course of business, the Company makes certain contractual guarantees and indemnities pursuant to which the Company may be required to make future payments under specific circumstances. The Company has not recorded any liability for these contractual guarantees and indemnities in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Warranties

The Company establishes reserves for future product warranty costs that are expected to be incurred pursuant to specific warranty provisions with its customers. The Company’s warranty reserves are established at the time of sale and updated throughout the warranty period based upon numerous factors including historical warranty return rates and expenses over various warranty periods.

Intellectual Property Indemnities

The Company indemnifies certain customers and its contract manufacturers against liability arising from third-party claims of intellectual property rights infringement related to the Company’s products. These indemnities appear in development and supply agreements with our customers as well as manufacturing service agreements with our contract manufacturers, are not limited in amount or duration and generally survive the expiration of the contract. Given that the amount of any potential liabilities related to such indemnities cannot be determined until an infringement claim has been made, the Company is unable to determine the maximum amount of losses that it could incur related to such indemnifications.

Director and Officer Indemnities and Contractual Guarantees

The Company has entered into indemnification agreements with its directors and executive officers which require the Company to indemnify such individuals to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law. The Company’s indemnification obligations under such agreements are not limited in amount or duration. Certain costs incurred in connection with such indemnifications may be recovered under certain circumstances under various insurance policies. Given that the amount of any potential liabilities related to such indemnities cannot be determined until a lawsuit has been filed against a director or executive officer, the Company is unable to determine the maximum amount of losses that it could incur relating to such

indemnifications. Historically, any amounts payable pursuant to such director and officer indemnifications have not had a material negative effect on the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations.

The Company has also entered into severance and change in control agreements with certain of its executives. These agreements provide for the payment of specific compensation benefits to such executives upon the termination of their employment with the Company.

General Contractual Indemnities/Products Liability

Short Term Borrowings

Advances under the line of credit with the bank are collateralized by all the Company’s assets. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company continues to service the sold receivables and is subject to recourse provisions. Under the terms of the agreement, if the bank determines that there is a material adverse change in the Company’s business, it may declare a default and exercise all its rights and remedies under the agreement. There was no amount outstanding under this facility at March 31, 2007.

Contractual Contingency

The Company has a contract to deliver several custom products to a government contractor. The Company is unable to manufacture the products for technical reasons. The Company has discussed the problem with the contractor and its government customer. They are considering the problem, and further discussions are expected. The Company does not believe that a loss, if any, is reasonably estimable at this time and therefore has not recorded any liability relating to this matter. The Company will periodically reassess its potential liability as additional information becomes available. If it later determines that a loss is probable and the amount reasonably estimable, the Company will record a liability for the potential loss. All costs have been expensed and no revenues recognized on this contract.

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

General

We develop, manufacture and market high performance infrastructure products for wireless voice and data applications. Wireless carriers face many challenges in today’s competitive marketplace. Minutes of use per user continue to grow and wireless users now expect the same quality of service from their mobile devices as from their landline phones. We help wireless carriers meet these challenges by “doing more with less.”

Our products help maximize the performance of wireless telecommunications networks by improving the quality of uplink signals from mobile wireless devices. Our products increase capacity utilization, lower dropped and blocked calls, extend coverage, and enable higher wireless data throughput — all while reducing capital and operating costs. SuperLink incorporates patented high-temperature superconductor (HTS) technology to create a receiver front-end that enhances network performance. Today, we are leveraging our expertise and proprietary technology in radio frequency (RF) engineering to expand our product line beyond HTS technology. We believe our RF engineering expertise provides us with a significant competitive advantage in the development of high performance, cost-effective solutions for the front end of wireless telecommunications networks.

We have three product offerings:

• SuperLink. In order to receive uplink signals from wireless handsets, base stations require a wireless filter system to eliminate, or filter out, out-of-band interference. SuperLink combines HTS filters with a proprietary cryogenic cooler and a cooled low-noise amplifier. The result is a highly compact and reliable receiver front-end that can simultaneously deliver both high selectivity (interference rejection) and high sensitivity (detection of low level signals). SuperLink delivers significant performance advantages over conventional filter systems.

• AmpLink. AmpLink is designed specifically to address the sensitivity requirements of wireless base stations. AmpLink is a ground-mounted unit which includes a high-performance amplifier and up to six dual duplexers. The enhanced uplink provided by AmpLink improves network coverage immediately and avoids the installation and maintenance costs associated with tower mounted alternatives.

• SuperPlex. SuperPlex is our line of multiplexers that provides extremely low insertion loss and excellent cross-band isolation. SuperPlex high-performance multiplexers are designed to eliminate the need for additional base station

antennas and reduce infrastructure costs. Relative to competing technologies, these products offer increased transmit power delivered to the base station antenna, higher sensitivity to subscriber handset signals, and fast and cost-effective network overlays.

We currently sell most of our commercial products directly to wireless network operators in the United States. Our primary customers to date include ALLTEL, Cingular, Sprint Nextel, T-Mobile, U.S. Cellular and Verizon Wireless. We have a concentrated customer base. Verizon Wireless, ALLTEL and T-Mobile each accounted for more than 10% of our commercial revenues in 2006 and Verizon Wireless accounted for more than 10% of our commercial revenues in the first quarter of 2007. We plan to expand our customer base by selling directly to other wireless network operators and manufacturers of base station equipment, but we cannot assure that this effort will be successful.

We also generate significant revenues from government contracts. We primarily pursue government research and development contracts which compliment our commercial product development. We undertake government contract work which has the potential to add to or improve our commercial product line. These contracts often yield valuable intellectual property relevant to our commercial business. We typically own the intellectual property developed under these contracts, and the Federal Government receives a royalty-free, non-exclusive and nontransferable license to use the intellectual property for the United States.

We sell most of our products to a small number of wireless carriers, and their demand for wireless communications equipment fluctuates dramatically and unpredictably. We expect these trends to continue and that may cause significant fluctuations in our quarterly and annual revenues.

The wireless communications infrastructure equipment market is extremely competitive and is characterized by rapid technological change, new product development, product obsolescence, evolving industry standards and price erosion over the life of a product. We face constant pressures to reduce prices. Consequently, we expect the average selling prices of our products will continue decreasing over time. We have responded in the past by successfully reducing our product costs, and expect further cost reductions over the next twelve months. However, we cannot predict whether our costs will decline at a rate sufficient to keep pace with the competitive pricing pressures.

Recent Developments

Settlement of Shalvoy Litigation

On March 2, 2007, we entered into a Settlement Agreement and Mutual Release of All Claims with Mr. Shalvoy to settle the lawsuit under which we received $610,000 in April 2007 and rescinded Mr. Shalvoy’s second purported option exercise including cancellation of the related note. Accordingly, the Company reversed $610,000 in reserves in this first quarter of 2007, reducing our operating expenses by that amount.

U.S. Air Force Contract

On April 20, 2007, we entered into a $4.7 million contract with the U. S. Air Force to develop Semiconductor-Tuned High Temperature Superconducting Filters for Ultra-Sensitive Radio Frequency Receivers (SURF). During this initial twelve month contract, which provides for progress billings, the U.S. Air Force has an option to extend the contract for an additional $5.4 million to develop a prototype rack-mountable system.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to bad debts, inventories, recovery of goodwill and long-lived assets, including intangible assets, income taxes, warranty obligations, and contingencies. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

We believe the following critical accounting policies affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of the financial statements. We maintain allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of our customers to make required payments. If the financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, additional allowances may be required. We write down our inventory for estimated obsolescence or unmarketable inventory equal to the difference between the cost of inventory and the estimated market value based upon assumptions about future demand and market conditions. If actual market conditions are less favorable than those projected by management, additional inventory write-downs may be required.

Our inventory is valued at the lower of its actual cost or the current estimated market value of the inventory. We review inventory quantities on hand and on order and record a provision for excess and obsolete inventory and/or vendor cancellation charges related to purchase commitments. Such provisions are established based on historical usage, adjusted for known changes in demands for such products, or the estimated forecast of product demand and production requirements. Our business is characterized by rapid technological change, frequent new product development and rapid product obsolescence that could result in an increase in the amount of obsolete inventory quantities on hand. As demonstrated in the past three years, demand for our products can fluctuate significantly. Our estimates of future product demand may prove to be inaccurate and we may understate or overstate the provision required for excess and obsolete inventory.

Our net sales consist of revenue from sales of products net of trade discounts and allowances. We recognize revenue when evidence of an arrangement exists, contractual obligations have been satisfied, title and risk of loss have been transferred to the customer and collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. At the time revenue is recognized, we provide for the estimated cost of product warranties if allowed for under contractual arrangements. Our warranty obligation is effected by product failure rates and service delivery costs incurred in correcting a product failure. Should such failure rates or costs differ from these estimates, accrued warranty costs would be adjusted.

All payments to us for work performed on contracts with agencies of the U.S. Government are subject to adjustment upon audit by the Defense Contract Audit Agency. Based on historical experience and review of current projects in process, we believe that the audits will not have a significant effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The Defense Contract Audit Agency has audited us through 2003.

We periodically evaluate the realizability of long-lived assets as events or circumstances indicate a possible inability to recover the carrying amount. Long-lived assets that will no longer be used in business are written off in the period identified since they will no longer generate any positive cash flows for the Company. Periodically, long-lived assets that will continue to be used by the Company need to be evaluated for recoverability. Such evaluation is based on various analyses, including cash flow and profitability projections. The analyses necessarily involve significant management judgment. In the event the projected undiscounted cash flows are less than net book value of the assets, the carrying value of the assets will be written down to their estimated fair value. We completed such an analysis during fiscal 2006 and determined that no write down was necessary. Our estimates of future cash flows may prove to be inaccurate, and we may understate or overstate the write down of long lived assets. During the first quarter of 2007, the market capitalization of the Company declined. If the market capitalization of the Company declines below the Company’s book value, and it is deemed other than temporary, then an impairment loss relating to the Company’s long lived assets might be recognized. Any future impairment of our long-lived assets could have a material adverse effect on our financial position and results of operations.

Our valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets is based on our assessments of historical losses and projected operating results in future periods. If and when we generate future taxable income in the U.S. against which these tax assets may be applied, some portion or all of the valuation allowance would be reversed and an increase in net income would consequently be reported in future years.

We have a contract to deliver several custom products to a government contractor. We are unable to manufacture the products for technical reasons. We have discussed the problem with the contractor and its government customer. They are considering the problem, and we expect further discussions. We do not believe that a loss is reasonably estimable at this time and therefore have not recorded any liability relating to this matter. We will periodically reassess our potential liability as additional information becomes available. If we later determine that a loss is probable and the amount reasonably estimable, we would record a liability for the potential loss.

We account for stock-based compensation in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123R. We use the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, which requires the input of highly subjective assumptions. These assumptions include estimating the length of tome an employee will retain their stock options before exercising them (“expected term”), the estimated volatility of the Company’s common stock price over the expected term and the number of options that will

ultimately not complete their vesting requirements (“forfeitures”). Changes in the subjective assumptions can materially affect the estimated fair value of the stock-based compensation and consequently, the related amount recognized on the consolidated statements of operations. See Notes 2 and 6 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in this Form 10-Q for further discussion of stock-based compensation.

Backlog

Our commercial backlog consists of accepted product purchase orders with scheduled delivery dates during the next twelve months. We had commercial backlog of $63,000 at March 31, 2007, as compared to $75,000 at December 31, 2006.

Results of Operations

Quarter Ended March 31, 2007 as compared to the Quarter Ended April 1, 2006

Net revenues decreased by $657,000, or 14%, from $4.8 million in the first quarter of 2006 to $4.2 million in the first quarter of 2007. Net revenues consist primarily of commercial product revenues and government contract revenues. We also generate some additional revenues from sublicensing our technology.

Net commercial product revenues decreased to $3.6 million in the first quarter of 2007 from $4.5 million in the first quarter of 2006, a decrease of $956,000, or 21%. The decrease is primarily the result of lower sales of our AmpLink products, partially offset by increased sales of our SuperLink product. Our three largest customers accounted for 95% of our total net commercial product revenues in the first quarter of 2007, compared to 90% in the first quarter of 2006. These customers generally purchase products through non-binding commitments with minimal lead-times. Consequently, our commercial product revenues can fluctuate dramatically from quarter to quarter based on changes in our customers’ capital spending patterns.

Government contract revenues increased to $649,000 in the first quarter of 2007 from $342,000 in the first quarter of 2006, an increase of $307,000, or 90%. This increase is primarily attributable to an increased number of government contracts.

Cost of commercial product revenues includes all direct costs, manufacturing overhead, provision for excess and obsolete inventories and restructuring and impairment charges relating to the manufacturing operations. The cost of commercial product revenue totaled $3.9 million for the first quarter of 2007 and 2006. No change in these costs with decreased commercial product revenue is primarily the result of the fixed expenses at this level of production.

Our cost of sales includes both variable and fixed cost components. The variable component consists primarily of materials, assembly and test labor, overhead, which includes equipment and facility depreciation, transportation costs and warranty costs. The fixed component includes test equipment and facility depreciation, purchasing and procurement expenses and quality assurance costs. Given the fixed nature of such costs, the absorption of our production overhead costs into inventory decreases and the amount of production overhead variances expensed to cost of sales increases as production volumes decline since we have fewer units to absorb our overhead costs against. Conversely, the absorption of our production overhead costs into inventory increases and the amount of production overhead variances expensed to cost of sales decreases as production volumes increase since we have more units to absorb our overhead costs against. As a result, our gross profit margins generally decrease as revenue and production volumes decline due to lower sales volume and higher amounts of production overhead variances expensed to cost of sales; and our gross profit margins generally increase as our revenue and production volumes increase due to higher sales volume and lower amounts of production overhead variances expensed to cost of sales.

The following is an analysis of our commercial product gross profit and margins:


	For the quarters ended
	April 1, 2006				March 31, 2007
	(Dollars in thousands)
Net commercial product sales	$	4,490	100.0	%	$	3,534		100.0	%
Total cost of commercial product sales		3,858	85.9	%		3,902		110.4	%

Gross profit	$	632	14.1	%	$	(368	)	(10.4	%)

We had a negative gross profit of $368,000 in the first quarter of 2007 from the sale of our commercial products as compared to a gross profit of $632,000 in the first quarter of 2006. We experienced negative gross profit in the first quarter of 2007 because the reduced level of commercial sales was insufficient to cover our fixed manufacturing overhead costs. In contrast, our positive gross profit in the first quarter of 2006 was due to lower direct costs and higher commercial sales which covered our fixed manufacturing overhead costs. Gross margin in the first quarter of 2007 was also favorably impacted $126,000 from the sale of previously written-off inventory. Our gross margins were also impacted by charges for excess and obsolete inventory of approximately $90,000 in the first quarter of 2007 and 2006. We regularly review inventory quantities on hand and

provide an allowance for excess and obsolete inventory based on numerous factors including sales backlog, historical inventory usage, forecasted product demand and production requirements for the next twelve months.

Contract research and development expenses totaled $445,000 in the first quarter of 2007 as compared to $304,000 in the first quarter of 2006. This increase was the result of higher expenses associated with performing a greater number of government contracts.

Other research and development expenses relate to development of new wireless commercial products. We also incur design expenses associated with reducing the cost and improving the manufacturability of our existing products. These expenses totaled $913,000 in the first quarter of 2007 as compared to $1.3 million in the same quarter of the prior year. This decrease is due to decreased commercial products development.

Selling, general and administrative expenses totaled $1.9 million in the first quarter of 2007, as compared to $2.7 million in the first quarter of the prior year. The lower expenses in 2007 resulted primarily from reversal of a $610,000 reserve (see “Settlement of Litigation” under Legal Proceedings Note to the Financial Statements) and lower insurance premiums.

Interest income decreased in the first quarter of 2007, as compared to the prior year, primarily because we had less cash available for investment.

Interest expense in the first quarter of 2007 decreased to $11,000, as compared to $13,000 in the prior year, because of lower borrowings.

We had a net loss of $2.9 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2007, as compared to a net loss of $3.2 million in the same period last year.

The net loss available to common shareholders totaled $0.24 per common share in the first quarter of 2007, as compared to a net loss of $0.26 per common share in the same period last year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Flow Analysis

As of March 31, 2007, we had working capital of $7.8 million, including $3.1 million in cash and cash equivalents, as compared to working capital of $10.2 million at December 31, 2006, which included $5.5 million in cash and cash equivalents. We currently invest our excess cash in short-term, investment-grade, money-market instruments with maturities of three months or less. We believe that all of our cash investments would be readily available to us should the need arise.

Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $2.3 million from $5.5 million at December 31, 2006 to $3.1 million at March 31, 2007. Cash was used in operations, for the purchase of property and equipment and for the payment of long-term borrowings. Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $3.7 million to $9.3 million in the three month period ended April 1, 2006. Cash was used in operations, for the purchase of property and equipment, for the payment of short and long-term borrowings.

Cash used in operations totaled $2.3 million in the first quarter of 2007. We used $2.1 million to fund the cash portion of our net loss. We also used cash to fund a $1.5 million increase in accounts receivable, patents and licenses, accounts payable prepaid expenses and other assets. These uses were partially offset by cash generated from a $1.3 million reduction in inventory. Cash used in operations totaled $3.6 million in the first quarter of 2006. We used $2.4 million to fund the cash portion of our net loss. We also used cash to fund a $2.0 million increase in inventory, patents and licenses, and accounts payable payments. These uses were partially offset by cash generated from the collection of accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other assets totaling $821,000.

Net cash used in investing activities totaled $27,000 in the first quarter of 2007 as compared to $159,000 in the first quarter of last year. These expenditures related primarily to purchases of manufacturing equipment and facilities improvements to increase our production capacity. The first quarter 2007 investing activity is net of $18,000 in equipment sales.

Net cash used in financing activities totaled $5,000 in the first quarter of 2007. The cash was used to pay down our long term debt. Net cash used in financing activities totaled $4,000 in the first quarter of 2006 and was also used to pay down our long term debt.

Financing Activities

We have historically financed our operations through a combination of cash on hand, cash provided from operations, equipment lease financings, available borrowings under bank lines of credit and both private and public equity offerings. We have effective registration statements on file with the SEC covering the public resale by investors of all the common stock issued in our private placements, as well as any common stock acquired upon exercise of their warrants.

We have an existing line of credit from a bank. It is a material source of funds for our business. The line of credit expires June 15, 2007. The loan agreement is structured as a sale of our accounts receivable and provides for the sale of up to $5.0 million of eligible accounts receivable, with advances to us totaling 80% of the receivables sold. Advances bear interest at the prime rate (8.25% at March 31, 2007) plus 2.50% subject to a minimum monthly charge. There was no amount outstanding under this borrowing facility at March 31, 2007 or December 31, 2006. Advances are collateralized by a lien on all of our assets. Under the terms of the agreement, we continue to service the sold receivables and are subject to recourse provisions.

Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments

We incur various contractual obligations and commercial commitments in our normal course of business. They consist of the following:

•

Capital Lease Obligations

Our capital lease obligations are for property and equipment and total $9,000 at March 31, 2007.

•

Operating Lease Obligations

Our operating lease obligations consist of a facility lease in Santa Barbara, California and several copier leases.

•

Patents and Licenses

We have entered into various licensing agreements requiring royalty payments ranging from 0.13% to 2.5% of specified product sales. Some of these agreements contain provisions for the payment of guaranteed or minimum royalty amounts. Typically, the licensor can terminate our license if we fail to pay minimum annual royalties.

•

Purchase Commitments

In the normal course of business, we incur purchase obligations with vendors and suppliers for the purchase of inventory, as well as other goods and services. These obligations are generally evidenced by purchase orders that contain the terms and conditions associated with the purchase arrangements. We are committed to accept delivery of such material pursuant to the purchase orders subject to various contract provisions which allow us to delay receipt of such orders or cancel orders beyond certain agreed upon lead times. Cancellations may result in cancellation costs payable by us.

Quantitative Summary of Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments

At March 31, 2007, we had the following contractual obligations and commercial commitments:


	Payments Due by Period
Contractual Obligations	Total		Less than 1 year		2-3 years		4-5 years		After 5 years

Capital lease obligations	$	9,000	$	9,000	$	—	$	—	$	—

Capital Expenditures

We plan to invest approximately $350,000 in fixed assets during the remainder of 2007.

Future Liquidity

Our independent registered public accounting firm has included in their audit report for fiscal 2006 an explanatory paragraph expressing doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our prior firm included a similar explanatory paragraph in their audit report for 2004 and 2005. In 2006, we incurred a net loss of $29.6 million and had negative cash flows from operations of $7.3 million. In the first quarter of 2007, we incurred a net loss of $2.9 million and had negative cash flows from operations of $2.3 million.

Our financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The factors described above raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from this uncertainty.

Net Operating Loss Carryforward

As of December 31, 2006, we had net operating loss carryforwards for federal and state income tax purposes of approximately $275.1 million and $143.4 million, respectively, which expire in the years 2007 through 2026. Of these amounts $91.2 million and $23.5 million, respectively resulted from the acquisition of Conductus. Included in the net operating loss carryforwards are deductions related to stock options of approximately $24.1 million and $13.1 million for federal and California income tax purposes, respectively. To the extent net operating loss carryforwards are recognized for accounting purposes the resulting benefits related to the stock options will be credited to stockholders’ equity. In addition, we have research and development and other tax credits for federal and state income tax purposes of approximately $2.4 million and $983,000, respectively, which expire in the years 2007 through 2026. Of these amounts $661,000 and $736,000, respectively resulted from the acquisition of Conductus.

Due to the uncertainty surrounding their realization, we have recorded a full valuation allowance against our net deferred tax assets. Accordingly, no deferred tax asset has been recorded in the accompanying balance sheet.

Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code imposes an annual limitation on the utilization of net operating loss carryforwards based on a statutory rate of return (usually the “applicable federal funds rate”, as defined in the Internal Revenue Code) and the value of the corporation at the time of a “change of ownership” as defined by Section 382. We completed an analysis of our equity transactions and determined that we had a change in ownership in August 1999 and December 2002. Therefore, the ability to utilize net operating loss carryforwards incurred prior to the change of ownership totaling $98.0 million will be subject in future periods to an annual limitation of $1.3 million. In addition, we acquired the right to Conductus’ net operating losses, which are also subject to the limitations imposed by Section 382. Conductus underwent three ownership changes, which occurred in February 1999, February 2001 and December 2002. Therefore, the ability to utilize Conductus’ net operating loss carryforwards of $91.2 million incurred prior to the ownership changes will be subject in future periods to annual limitation of $700,000. Net operating losses incurred by us subsequent to the ownership changes totaled $86.4 million and are not subject to this limitation.
