CC notes 8/8/2005

Beyond the large increases in reported revenues and deferred revenues, they were guarded about additional specifics, just clues.

- Order-To-Revenue was below 1.0 for Q2, but above 1.0 for H1. They indicated order activity accelerated in early Q3.

- MOT was their most significant partner in Q2 in terms of revenues and order activity.

- They are averaging 3 quarters to convert an order into revenue, although some of the Q2 revenue was converted in a shorter time.

- Revenue from 39 customers in Q2 vs. 41 in Q1. Employee count grew to 625 from 586.

- Def. revenues increased to $114.9M from 92M, with ST going from $69.3M to $87.4 and LT from $22.4 to $27.4M. They said they expect LT DR to decline in % terms as they work on contract terms that recognize revenue faster.

- I couldn't hear the numbers she gave for the category they have called shipped and billed but not yet in DR.

- Guidance was very general - 2005 Rev > 2004 Rev, 2H05 Rev > 1H05 Rev.

Q&A

- 1H04, 2H04, and 1H05 all had Book-To-Bill > 1.0
