NetScreen Technologies, Inc. (the “Company” or “NetScreen”) was incorporated in Delaware on October 30, 1997. NetScreen develops, markets and sells a broad family of integrated network security solutions. NetScreen’s solutions provide key security technologies, such as virtual private networking, denial of service protection, firewall and intrusion detection and prevention, in a line of easy-to-manage security systems and appliances.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of NetScreen Technologies, Inc. have been prepared, without audit, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted in accordance with these rules and regulations. The information in this report should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements and notes thereto included in its Form 10-K filed with the SEC on December 30, 2002.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to summarize fairly the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. The operating results for the three and six month periods ended March 31, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending September 30, 2003 or for any other future period.

The Company derives revenues primarily from sales of its hardware-based security systems and appliances and maintenance arrangements, and, to a lesser extent, from sales of software products and services. The Company generally recognizes revenues when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery or customer acceptance, where applicable, has occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable, and collection is probable. For newly introduced technically complex products, the Company defers revenues from the sale of these products until they have successfully performed in the marketplace and sales returns are not unusually high. The determination of which products are complex, and the timing of the end of deferral for particular products, can be expected to vary.

The Company defers revenues on sales to its distributors until the distributor has sold the products to its customers. The Company’s agreements with distributors provide for limited stock rotation and price protection rights. Stock rotation rights provide distributors with the right to exchange unsold inventory for alternate products of equal or greater value. Price protection rights grant distributors the right to credit on future purchases in the event of decreases in the prices of the Company’s products. The Company’s agreements with value-added resellers typically do not include stock rotation or price protection rights. At the time of shipment to value-added resellers, the Company reserves for estimated returns and exchanges. These revenue reserves are estimated and adjusted periodically based on historical rates of returns and allowances, inventory levels for value-added resellers that submit inventory or sell-through reports, the volume of sales to value-added resellers that the Company ships directly to end customers, and for sales to value-added resellers that do not submit inventory or sell-through reports, accounts receivable balances, payment history and other related factors.

The Company defers a portion of its product revenues based on the value of certain maintenance arrangements included with each product sale and recognizes these revenues over the applicable maintenance period. The Company also derives a portion of its revenues from sales of separate extended maintenance arrangements. The Company sells extended hardware maintenance, faster hardware replacements for defective units, software maintenance as well as world-wide technical support with access 24 hours a day, seven days a week. These arrangements are sold as a bundle or as separate support offerings providing only hardware maintenance, technical support or software maintenance. For bundled arrangements, revenue is allocated among the elements at the time of sale based on their fair values as determined by the prices charged by the Company when each element is sold separately. Revenue from extended maintenance arrangements is recognized over the period of coverage purchased by the customer.

The Company has a large, diversified customer base, which includes customers located in foreign countries. The Company monitors the creditworthiness of its customers but has experienced losses related to its accounts receivable in the past. The Company records an allowance for doubtful accounts based on past history, current economic conditions and the composition of its accounts receivable aging and, in some cases, makes allowances for specific customers based on several factors, such as the creditworthiness of those customers and payment history.

The Company regularly records a sales return reserve that approximates the aggregate dollar amount of expected future returns and allowances. The sales return reserve is calculated based on past return history, product mix, channel mix and, in some cases, allowances for specific customers based on several factors such as return rights included in the Company’s agreements with customers. The sales return reserve is recorded against revenue that has been recognized or as an offset to deferred revenue.

Given the volatility of the networking market, the rapid obsolescence of technology and short product life cycles, the Company writes down inventories to net realizable value based on backlog and forecasted demand.

The Company’s hardware products carry a one-year warranty that includes factory repair services or replacement parts as needed. The Company accrues estimated expenses for warranty obligations at the time that products are shipped based on historical product repair and replacement information.

The Company reviews property, plant and equipment, goodwill and other intangible assets for impairment on an annual basis in its fourth fiscal quarter and whenever events or circumstances indicate the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. The Company’s review of goodwill and other intangible assets is based on the estimated future cash flows the assets are expected to generate. The Company’s review is based on its best estimate of a variety of factors, including future market growth, forecasted revenues and costs and a strategic review of its business and operations. In the event the Company determines that an asset is impaired in the future, an adjustment to the value of the asset would be charged to earnings in the period such determination is made.

The consolidated financial statements include the Company’s accounts and those of its wholly owned subsidiaries. Upon consolidation, all significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Foreign currency transactions of foreign operations are measured using U.S. dollars as the functional currency. Accordingly, monetary accounts (principally cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities) are remeasured using the foreign exchange rate at the balance sheet date. Accounts related to operations and non-monetary balance sheet items are remeasured at the rate in effect at the date of the transaction. The effects of foreign currency remeasurement are reported in current operations and were immaterial for all periods presented.

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce its deferred tax assets to an amount that it estimates is more likely than not to be realized. The Company considers estimated future taxable income and prudent tax planning strategies in determining the valuation allowance. In the event the Company were to determine that it would be able to realize deferred tax assets in the future in excess of the net recorded deferred tax asset, an adjustment to the net deferred tax asset would increase net income (or decrease the net loss) in the period such determination was made. Likewise, should the Company determine that it is not able to realize all or part of its deferred tax assets in the future, an adjustment to deferred tax assets would be charged to earnings in the period such determination was made.

Comprehensive income (loss) includes certain unrealized gains and losses that are recorded as a component of stockholders’ equity and excluded from the determination of net income (loss). The Company’s only component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) was unrealized losses on investments of approximately $(27,000) and $(78,000) in the three and six months ended March 31, 2003. Accumulated other comprehensive income was approximately $423,000 and $501,000 at March 31, 2003 and September 30, 2002, respectively.

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents approximated fair value at March 31, 2003 and September 30, 2002.

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash equivalents, short-term available-for-sale investments and accounts receivable. The Company places all of its cash equivalents with high credit-rated issuers. Carrying amounts of financial instruments held by the Company, which include cash equivalents, short-term available-for-sale investments, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, approximate fair value due to their short duration. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers, generally requires customers to prepay for maintenance and maintains reserves for potential losses. The Company’s customer base is composed of businesses throughout the Americas, which includes North and Latin America, Asia and the Pacific Rim (APAC) and Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA).

The Company accounts for stock-based awards to employees using the intrinsic value method in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” (“APB 25”). Expenses associated with stock-based compensation are amortized ratably over the vesting periods of the individual awards consistent with the method described in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Interpretation No. 28. The Company provides additional pro forma disclosures as required under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (“SFAS 123”) and SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation—Transition and Disclosure” (“SFAS 148”). Options granted to consultants and other non-employees are accounted for in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) Consensus No. 96-18, “Accounting for Equity Investments That Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or In Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services,” and valued using the Black-Scholes method prescribed by SFAS 123. The options are subject to periodic revaluation over their vesting periods.

The following table illustrates the effect on net income (loss) applicable to common stockholders and net income (loss) per share applicable to common stockholders as if the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS 123 had been applied to all outstanding and unvested stock-based awards in each period (in thousands, except per share amounts):

The fair value of shares issued under the Company’s employee stock purchase plan during the quarter ended March 31, 2003 was estimated using an expected life of 0.91 years, expected price volatility of 84%, a risk-free interest rate of 2.23% and no dividend yield. The fair value for the employee stock purchase plan during the quarter ended March 31, 2002 was estimated using an expected life of 0.47 years, expected price volatility of 84%, a risk-free interest rate of 1.89% and no dividend yield.

The option valuation models were developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options, which have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions. Because the Company’s employee stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in management’s opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of its employee stock options.

In July 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities” (“SFAS 146”). SFAS 146 addresses financial accounting and reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities and nullifies EITF Issue No. 94-3, “Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring).” SFAS 146 requires that a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized when the liability is incurred rather than when the exit or disposal is approved. The Company adopted this pronouncement on January 1, 2003. The adoption of this pronouncement is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s current financial position or results of operations.

In November 2002, the FASB issued Financial Interpretation No. 45, “Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others” (“FIN 45”). FIN 45 elaborates on the existing disclosure requirements for most guarantees, including loan guarantees such as standby letters of credit, and provides new disclosure requirements regarding indemnification provisions, including indemnification provisions typically included in a technology arrangement. It also clarifies that at the time a guarantee is issued, the guarantor must recognize an initial liability for the fair value of the obligations it assumes under the guarantee and must disclose that information in its financial statements. The provisions related to recognizing a liability at inception of the guarantee do not apply to product warranties, indemnification provisions in the guarantor’s technology arrangements, or to guarantees accounted for as derivatives. The initial recognition and measurement provisions apply to guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002, and the disclosure requirements apply to guarantees outstanding as of December 31, 2002. The Company adopted FIN 45 in December 2002. The Company does not expect the adoption of FIN 45 to have a material impact on its current financial position or results of operations.

In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, which amends SFAS 123. SFAS 148 provides alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, SFAS 148 amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS 123 and will require companies to prominently disclose in both annual and interim financial statements the company’s method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the method used on the company’s financial position and results of operations. The transition guidance and annual disclosure requirements of SFAS 148 are effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2002. The Company has adopted the interim disclosure requirements of SFAS 148 in Note 3 of these financial statements. The Company will continue to account for its stock purchase plan and stock option plans under the provisions of APB No. 25. SFAS 148 is not anticipated to have a material impact on the Company’s current financial position or results of operations.

In January 2003, the FASB issued Financial Interpretation No. 46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” (“FIN 46”). FIN 46 requires an investor with a majority of the variable interest entity to consolidate the entity and also requires majority and significant variable interest investors to provide certain disclosures. A variable interest entity is an entity in which the equity investors do not have a controlling interest or the equity investment at risk is insufficient to finance the entity’s activities without receiving additional subordinated financial support from the other parties. The Company adopted FIN 46 in January 2003. The Company does not currently have any interest in variable entities and, accordingly, does not expect the adoption of FIN 46 to have a material impact on its current financial position or results of operations.

Inventories are stated at the lower of standard cost, which approximates actual cost (first-in, first-out method) or market value (estimated net realizable value). The valuation of inventories at the lower of standard cost or market value requires the use of estimates regarding the amount of inventory that will be sold and the prices at which current inventory will be sold. These estimates are dependent on the Company’s assessment of current and expected orders from its customers.

In accordance with SFAS 128, “Earnings per Share,” basic net income (loss) per share is calculated using the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period, less shares subject to repurchase. Diluted net income per share for the three and six months ended March 31, 2003 gives effect to the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents consisting of stock options and shares subject to repurchase using the treasury stock method. Potentially dilutive securities, consisting of stock options and shares subject to repurchase, have been excluded from the Company’s diluted net loss per share computations for the three and six months ended March 31, 2002 as their inclusion would be antidilutive. The total number of shares excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share was approximately 10,473,000 for the three and six months ended March 31, 2002.

The following table presents the calculation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per share applicable to common stockholders (in thousands, except per share amounts):

On September 18, 2002, the Company completed its acquisition of OneSecure Inc., a developer of intrusion detection and prevention technology. The acquisition of OneSecure expanded the Company’s product portfolio to include an intrusion detection and prevention device, and allowed the Company to enter the intrusion detection and prevention system market. The preliminary purchase price was $60.8 million and the transaction has been accounted for as a purchase. The Company issued 3.2 million shares of its common stock with a fair value of $43.7 million for all of the outstanding stock of OneSecure. The common stock issued in the acquisition was valued using the average closing price of the Company’s common stock on The Nasdaq National Market from two days before to two days after the date the transaction was announced, which was $13.71 per share. The Company also assumed all of the outstanding stock options of OneSecure, which were converted into options to purchase approximately 349,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, and issued options to purchase 1.4 million shares of the Company’s common stock, each with an exercise price of $11.65 per share, in connection with the transaction. The fair value of the stock options assumed and issued in connection with the transaction, net of deferred stock compensation, was approximately $15.9 million. The options were valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model using a volatility factor of 80%, expected lives of two to five years, a risk-free interest rate of 4.3% and a per share market value of $13.71 as described above. The total purchase price also includes an estimate of the direct costs associated with the transaction totaling approximately $1.2 million, including approximately $474,000 of additional costs incurred in the three months ended December 31, 2002.

The acquisition has been accounted for under the purchase method of accounting in accordance with SFAS 141, “Business Combinations.” Under the purchase method of accounting, the total purchase price is allocated to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and the liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values. The excess of the purchase price over those fair values is recorded as goodwill. The fair values assigned to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based on estimates and assumptions provided by management, and other information compiled by management, including independent valuations, prepared by independent valuation specialists, that utilize established valuation techniques appropriate for the high technology industry. In accordance with SFAS 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,” goodwill will not be amortized, but instead will be reviewed periodically for impairment.

The estimated future amortization of intangible assets is as follows (in thousands):

Certain of the Company’s operating lease arrangements include collateral restrictions that require the Company to maintain standby letters of credit as restricted cash. Total restricted cash as of March 31, 2003 was $1.0 million. As of March 31, 2003, approximately $308,000 of the restricted cash was classified as short-term, which will remain restricted for one year after the operating leases expired in December 2002 and February 2003. Approximately $694,000 was classified as long-term for an operating lease expiring in May 2008.

The Company’s hardware products carry a one-year warranty that includes factory repair services or replacement parts as needed. The Company’s software products carry a three-month warranty. The Company accrues estimated expenses for warranty obligations at the time that products are shipped based on historical product repair and replacement information. Factors that affect the Company’s warranty liability include the number of installed units, historical rates of warranty claims and cost per claim. The Company periodically assesses the adequacy of its recorded warranty liabilities and adjusts the amounts as necessary.

Changes in the Company’s estimated product warranty liability during the six months ended March 31, 2003 were as follows (in thousands):

Flash Electronics, Inc. manufactures, assembles and tests the NetScreen-100, NetScreen-50, NetScreen-25, NetScreen-204, NetScreen-208, NetScreen IDP-100 and NetScreen IDP-500 products. Solectron Corporation manufactures, assembles and tests the NetScreen-5200, NetScreen-5400, NetScreen-500, NetScreen-5XP and NetScreen-5XT products. The Company purchases from these manufacturers on a purchase order basis and does not have a long-term supply contract. At March 31, 2003, the Company had noncancelable purchase orders of $5.1 million to Flash Electronics, Inc. and Solectron Corporation.

The Company is subject to legal proceedings, claims and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. While the outcome of these matters is currently not determinable, the Company does not expect that the ultimate costs to resolve these matters will have a material adverse affect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

The Company acquired OneSecure, Inc. in September 2002. In connection with the acquisition, the Company assumed noncancelable operating leases for domestic sales offices which were not occupied by OneSecure and which will not be occupied by the Company. In addition, the Company assumed the noncancelable operating lease for OneSecure’s headquarters in Sunnyvale, California, which is a duplicate facility. The Company has recorded a restructuring liability for the net present value of these leases, net of expected sublease income, for the periods these facilities will be unoccupied. The liability for the net present value of future net lease payments for the excess facilities, discounted at a 6.5% borrowing rate, will decrease as required lease payments are made as follows:

During the three months ended March 31, 2003, the Company made payments on the non-cancelable operating leases that were included in restructuring liabilities. The net present value of the amounts paid during the three months ended March 31, 2003 was approximately $118,000.

The Company operates in one business segment, the sale of security solutions for network environments. The Company sells its products and technology to customers in the Americas, APAC and EMEA. Revenues by geographic regions were as follows (in thousands):

No customer accounted for 10% or more of total revenues in the three or six months ended March 31, 2003 or 2002.

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

This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations section should be read in conjunction with the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this report. This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. In many cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terms such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “potential,” “intend” or “continue,” or comparable terminology. These forward-looking statements include our expectations about revenue, revenue mix, channel mix, cost of revenues, gross margin and various operating expenses. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of many factors, including, but not limited to, those presented below, under the caption “Factors That May Affect Our Business and Future Results of Operations and Financial Condition,” and elsewhere in this report. You should carefully review the risks described in other documents we file from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended September 30, 2002, which was filed on December 30, 2002, as well as other reports that we filed in 2002 and 2003 or will file in 2003. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements for any reason, except as required by law, even if new information becomes available or other events occur in the future.

We develop, market and sell a broad family of integrated network security solutions for enterprises, carriers and government entities. Our security solutions provide key technologies such as firewall, virtual private networking, denial of service protection and intrusion detection and prevention in a line of easy-to-manage security systems and appliances. Our firewall and VPN systems and appliances deliver integrated firewall, virtual private networking and denial of service protection capabilities in a single device using our proprietary application specific integrated circuits, which we refer to as GigaScreen and GigaScreen-II ASICs, and our proprietary security operating system, ScreenOS. Our intrusion detection and prevention appliances run a secure version of the Linux operating system and use proprietary software and multiple detection methods to identify network attacks. Our products are based on industry standard communication protocols and can be combined with our management software so that they can be easily integrated into networks, easily managed and will interoperate with other security devices and applications.

On September 18, 2002, we completed our acquisition of OneSecure, Inc., a provider of network intrusion detection and prevention solutions. We issued 3.2 million shares of our common stock for all the outstanding stock of OneSecure. We also assumed all of the outstanding stock options of OneSecure, which were converted into options to purchase approximately 349,000 shares of our common stock, and issued options to purchase 1.4 million shares of our common stock in connection with the transaction. The acquisition has been accounted for as a purchase and, accordingly, the total purchase price of $60.8 million has been allocated to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and the liabilities assumed based on their respective fair values on the acquisition date. OneSecure’s results of operations have been included in our consolidated results of operations from the date of acquisition. As a result of the acquisition, we recorded goodwill of $57.3 million and other intangible assets of $5.8 million. In accordance with provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,” goodwill resulting from the acquisition will not be amortized, but will be reviewed periodically for impairment. The other intangible assets will be amortized on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives of three to ten years. Achieving the anticipated benefits of the merger will depend, in part, upon whether the operations, products and technology of OneSecure can be integrated with our operations, products and technology in a timely and cost-effective manner. The process of combining the two companies is a complex, expensive and time-consuming process and may cause an interruption of, or loss of momentum in, the development and sales activities and operations of both companies. Likewise, we may not be able to effectively combine OneSecure’s technologies into our own products, successfully market or enhance OneSecure’s line of intrusion detection and prevention products, or offer a viable combined hardware or management product that addresses the needs of our customers. We cannot assure you that any part or all of the integration will be accomplished on a timely basis, or at all.

We derive a substantial portion of our revenues from outside the Americas, which includes North and Latin America. Revenues from outside the Americas were 63.9% in the six months ended March 31, 2003, compared to 51.2% in the six months ended March 31, 2002. Specifically, revenues from Asia and the Pacific Rim (APAC) accounted for approximately 40.9% and 30.0% of our total revenues in the six months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. Revenues from Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA) accounted for approximately 23.0% and 21.2% of our total revenues in the six months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The increase in revenues from outside the Americas as a percentage of total revenues was primarily attributable to continued strength in the large enterprise and service provider markets in APAC and increased demand for our products in international markets. We cannot assure you that we will be able to maintain or increase the demand for our products in international markets or that regional challenges such as economic downturns, the outbreak of hostilities or the emergence of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) will not have an adverse impact on our performance in international markets.

We have experienced consecutive improvements in revenues and net income (loss) before deemed dividend in each quarter of fiscal 2002 and during the first two quarters of fiscal 2003. We first achieved profitability on a generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) basis in the quarter ended December 31, 2002, and we have remained profitable on a GAAP basis in the subsequent quarter ended March 31, 2003. Prior to the quarter ended December 31, 2002, we had incurred significant losses in each fiscal period since our inception. As of March 31, 2003, we had an accumulated deficit of $123.4 million. In the first through fourth quarters of fiscal 2002, our revenues were $29.0 million, $32.0 million, $36.4 million and $41.1 million, respectively, and our net loss before deemed dividend was $5.7 million, $3.3 million, $2.4 million and approximately $925,000, respectively. In the first and second quarters of fiscal 2003, our revenues were $51.1 million and $58.3 million, respectively, and our net income was $3.2 million and $5.9 million, respectively. We cannot assure you that our revenues will continue to grow at the same rate as in the past or at all, or that we will maintain profitability in future periods. In addition, our revenue recognition is dependent on many factors, some of which are outside our control, including sell-through reports from distributors, the aggregate value of direct shipments to end users and the timing of new product introductions for technically complex products.

We recorded a deemed dividend of $27.6 million in the three months ended December 31, 2001 related to our October 2001 issuance of Series F preferred stock at a price subsequently deemed to be below its fair value. The deemed dividend was calculated based on the difference between the assumed fair market value on the date the Series F preferred stock was issued and the purchase price of the Series F preferred stock. We also recorded deemed dividends of $1.1 million in the three months ended December 31, 2001 to account for cumulative dividend rights attributable to our Series E and F preferred stock. At the time of our initial public offering (“IPO”), all of our outstanding preferred stock converted to common stock and all dividend rights, as well as voting and liquidation rights, attributable to the preferred stock terminated. No dividends were paid on the preferred stock.

Cost of product revenues consists of the costs associated with manufacturing, assembling and testing our products, related overhead costs, compensation and other costs related to manufacturing support and logistics. We rely on contract manufacturers to manufacture our hardware products. Accordingly, a major portion of our cost of product revenues consists of payments to these contract manufacturers. Cost of maintenance and service revenues consists of customer support costs, training and professional service expenses and warranty-related costs.

Our gross margin has been, and will continue to be, affected by a variety of factors, including competition, the mix and average selling prices of products, maintenance and services, new product introductions and enhancements, the availability and cost of components and manufacturing labor, fluctuations in manufacturing volumes and the mix of distribution channels through which our products are sold. Our overall gross margin will be adversely affected by price declines if we are unable to reduce costs on existing products and do not continue to introduce new products with higher margins.

Research and development expenses consist of salaries and related expenses for development and engineering personnel, fees paid to consultants, license fees paid to third parties and prototype costs related to the design, development, testing and enhancement of our ASICs, security systems and appliances, ScreenOS, management applications and VPN client software. We expense our research and development costs as they are incurred. Several components of our research and development efforts require significant expenditures, the timing of which can cause significant quarterly variability in our expenses. We are devoting substantial resources to the continued development of new products. To meet the changing requirements of our customers, we will need to fund investments in several development projects in parallel. As a result, we expect our research and development expenses to increase substantially in absolute dollars in the upcoming quarter.

Sales and marketing expenses consist of salaries, commissions and related expenses for personnel engaged in marketing, sales and sales support functions and costs associated with promotional and other marketing activities. We intend to expand our sales operations substantially, both domestically and internationally, in order to increase sales of our products. In addition, we believe part of our future success will be dependent upon establishing successful relationships with a variety of additional resellers in other countries. We expect that sales and marketing expenses will increase substantially in absolute dollars in the upcoming quarter as we expand our domestic and international sales efforts, hire additional sales and marketing personnel and initiate additional marketing programs.

General and administrative expenses consist of salaries and related expenses for executive, finance, accounting, legal and human resources personnel, professional fees and corporate expenses. We expect general and administrative expenses to increase in absolute dollars as we employ additional personnel, and incur additional expenses related to the growth of our business and our operation as a public company, including new corporate governance requirements.

We account for stock-based awards to employees using the intrinsic value method in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” (“APB 25”). Expenses associated with stock-based compensation are amortized ratably over the vesting periods of the individual awards consistent with the method described in FASB Interpretation No. 28. During the three months ended December 31, 2001, in connection with the grant of stock options to employees, we recorded deferred stock compensation of $13.5 million representing the difference between the exercise price and the deemed fair value for financial reporting purposes of the common stock on the date these stock options were granted. We also recorded deferred stock compensation of approximately $587,000 in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2002, representing the intrinsic value of unvested stock options assumed in connection with the acquisition of OneSecure. Restricted stock acquired through the exercise of unvested stock options is subject to our right to repurchase the unvested stock at the price paid, which right lapses over time. Deferred stock compensation is included as a reduction of stockholders’ equity and is amortized ratably over the vesting period of the individual award, generally four years, consistent with the method described in FASB Interpretation No. 28. During the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, we recorded amortization of deferred stock compensation of $5.5 million and $6.1 million, respectively. During the six months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, we recorded amortization of deferred stock compensation of $11.6 million and $12.0 million, respectively. This deferred stock compensation expense relates to stock options granted to individuals in all cost of revenues and operating expense categories and has been included in those categories. At March 31, 2003, $28.6 million of deferred stock compensation related to employee stock options remained unamortized. This amount will be amortized as follows (in thousands):

The provision for income taxes is primarily related to federal alternative minimum, state and foreign income taxes. The provision for income taxes also reflects the impact of non-deductible stock-based compensation expense.

The methods, estimates and judgments we use in applying our accounting policies have a significant impact on the results we report in our financial statements. Some of our accounting policies require us to make difficult and subjective judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates of matters that are inherently uncertain. Our most critical accounting estimates include: the assessment of technical complexity and market acceptance of technically complex products, which impact revenue recognition; deferral of revenue for distributors and value-added resellers and revenue reserves, which impact revenue recognition; potential return rates and probability of collections, which impact account receivable and warranty reserves; the valuation of inventory, which impacts cost of sales and gross margin; the assessment of recoverability of goodwill and other intangible assets, which impacts write-offs of goodwill and identified intangible assets; and, the assessment of our realization of deferred tax assets, which impacts income taxes.

We derive our revenues primarily from sales of our hardware-based security systems and appliances and maintenance arrangements, and, to a lesser extent, from sales of software products and services. We generally recognize revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery or customer acceptance, where applicable, has occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable, and collectibility is probable. We defer a portion of product revenues based on the value of basic maintenance services bundled with each product sale. For these bundled arrangements, revenue is allocated among each element of the bundle at the time of sale based on the fair value of each element of the bundle. The fair value of each element is determined by reference to the prices we charge when each element is sold separately. Maintenance revenue is deferred and recognized over the applicable maintenance period. We also derive a portion of our revenues from sales of separate extended maintenance arrangements.

For newly introduced technically complex products, we defer recognition of revenues from the sale of these products until they have successfully performed in the marketplace and sales returns are not unusually high. Determining which products are sufficiently technically complex to merit this revenue deferral requires us to exercise judgment, as does the determination of when products have achieved sufficient acceptance in the market so that deferral is no longer appropriate. The determination of which products are complex, and the timing of the end of deferral for particular products, can be expected to vary. If we define technically complex products too broadly, we will defer revenue unnecessarily; if we define these products too narrowly, revenue will be recognized earlier but product returns and warranty claims will be higher in future periods.

We sell to value-added resellers and distributors. We derived approximately 93.5% of our total revenues from value-added resellers and distributors in the six months ended March 31, 2003. We defer revenue on sales to our distributors until the distributor has sold our products to its customers. Our agreements with distributors provide for limited stock rotation and price protection rights. Stock rotation rights provide distributors with the right to exchange unsold inventory for alternate products of equal or greater value. Price protection rights grant distributors the right to credit on future purchases in the event of decreases in the prices of our products. Our agreements with value-added resellers typically do not include stock rotation or price protection rights. At the time of shipment to value-added resellers, we reserve for estimated returns and exchanges. These revenue reserves are estimated and adjusted periodically based on historical rates of returns and allowances, inventory levels for value-added resellers that submit inventory or sell-through reports, the volume of sales to value-added resellers that we ship directly to end customers, and for sales to value-added resellers that do not submit inventory or sell-through reports, accounts receivable balances, payment history and other related factors. These reserves require the exercise of our judgment in determining if historical experience applies to new products, and to new distributors and value-added resellers. If our estimate of returns and exchanges is too low, additional charges will be incurred in future periods, and these additional charges could have a material adverse effect on our financial position and results of operations.

We record sales return and warranty reserves based on estimates of expected future returns and allowances and expected future repair and replacement costs. We record a sales return reserve that approximates the aggregate amount of expected future returns and allowances. Our sales return reserve is based on past return history, product mix, channel mix and, in some cases, allowances for specific customers based on several factors such as return rights included in our agreements with customers. We record the sales return reserve against revenue that has been recognized or as an offset to deferred revenue. Our warranty reserve approximates the aggregate amount of future repair and replacement costs for our products. Our warranty reserve is based on historical product repair and replacement information. In the event we determine that our current or future sales returns and allowances and product repair and replacement costs exceed our estimates, an adjustment to these reserves would be charged to earnings in the period such determination is made.

We have a large, diversified customer base, which includes customers located in foreign countries. We monitor the creditworthiness of our customers but have experienced losses related to our accounts receivable in the past. We record an allowance for doubtful accounts based on past history, current economic conditions and the composition of our accounts receivable aging and, in some cases, make allowances for specific customers based on several factors, such as the creditworthiness of those customers and payment history. These allowances require our subjective judgment. Actual write-offs may differ from the allowances for doubtful accounts, and this difference may have a material effect on our financial position and results of operations.

Given the volatility of the networking market, the rapid obsolescence of technology and short product life cycles, we write down inventories to net realizable value based on backlog and forecasted demand. However, backlog is subject to revisions, cancellations and rescheduling. If actual demand is lower than our forecasted demand, and we fail to reduce manufacturing output accordingly, we could be required to record additional inventory write-downs, which would have a negative effect on our gross margin.

Valuation of long-lived assets including goodwill and other intangible assets

We review property, plant and equipment, goodwill and other intangible assets for impairment on an annual basis in our fourth fiscal quarter and whenever events or circumstances indicate the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. Our review of goodwill and other intangible assets is based on the estimated future cash flows the assets are expected to generate. Our review is based on our best estimate of a variety of factors, including future market growth, forecasted revenues and costs and a strategic review of our business and operations. In the event we determine that an asset is impaired in the future, an adjustment to the value of the asset would be charged to earnings in the period such determination is made.

We record a valuation allowance to reduce our deferred tax assets to an amount that we estimate is more likely than not to be realized. We consider estimated future taxable income and prudent tax planning strategies in determining the need for a valuation allowance. When we deem that it is more likely than not that all tax attributes will be fully supportable by either refundable income taxes or future taxable income, the reduction in valuation allowance will result in a discrete event during the quarter that it occurs. Likewise, should we determine that we are not able to realize all or part of our deferred tax assets in the future, an adjustment to deferred tax assets would be charged to earnings in the period such determination was made.

Product Revenues. Revenues from sales of our products increased 80.9% to $47.9 million in the three months ended March 31, 2003 from $26.5 million in the three months ended March 31, 2002. This increase was primarily attributable to increased sales of all product categories, principally an increase in revenue recognized from our mid-range products, including revenue from shipments made in the quarter and deferred revenue recognized from shipments in prior quarters. Hardware revenue units increased to approximately 29,000 units in the three months ended March 31, 2003 from approximately 18,000 units in the three months ended March 31, 2002.

Maintenance and Service Revenues. Revenues from maintenance and services increased 87.7% to $10.4 million in the three months ended March 31, 2003 from $5.5 million in the three months ended March 31, 2002. This increase was the result of the higher volume of products shipped and the related recognition of revenues associated with the portion of product revenues attributable to maintenance and services over the applicable maintenance period, as well as increased customer purchases of enhanced service offerings and renewals of maintenance contracts across a larger installed base of customers.

No single customer accounted for 10% or more of our total revenues in the three months ended March 31, 2003 or 2002.

We cannot assure you that our revenues will continue to increase in absolute dollars at the rate at which they have grown in recent periods or at all.

Product Cost of Revenues. Product cost of revenues increased 61.9% to $10.6 million in the three months ended March 31, 2003 from $6.6 million in the three months ended March 31, 2002. This increase reflects the greater quantity of products sold, partially offset by reductions in the prices at which we purchase our products from our manufacturers. Product cost of revenues includes stock-based compensation and amortization of intangible assets of approximately $597,000 and $411,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

Product Gross Margin. Product gross margin, including stock-based compensation and amortization of intangible assets, as a percentage of product revenues increased to 77.8% in the three months ende d March 31, 2003 from 75.2% in the three months ended March 31, 2002. The increase in product gross margin was primarily attributable to increased sales and improved selling prices of our higher-margin mid-range products. The increase in product gross margin was also attributable to reductions in the prices at which we purchase our products from our manufacturers. We expect our selling prices and product gross margin to decline over time.

Maintenance and Service Cost of Revenues. Maintenance and service cost of revenues increased 64.6% to $3.2 million in the three months ended March 31, 2003 from $2.0 million in the three months ended March 31, 2002. This increase was primarily related to the expansion of our customer support infrastructure and the larger installed base of products for which we provide service. Maintenance and service cost of revenues includes stock-based compensation of approximately $277,000 and $238,000 in the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

Maintenance and Service Gross Margin. Maintenance and service gross margin, including stock-based compensation, as a percentage of maintenance and service revenues was 68.9% in the three months ended March 31, 2003 compared to 64.6% in the three months ended March 31, 2002. The increase in maintenance and service gross margin was primarily attributable to our ability to support higher service revenues with our existing organization and support infrastructure. We expect our maintenance and service gross margin to decline over time.

Research and Development Expenses. Research and development expenses increased 34.6% to $11.1 million in the three months ended March 31, 2003 from $8.2 million in the three months ended March 31, 2002. Research and development expenses represented 19.0% and 25.7% of total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The dollar increase was primarily attributable to increased personnel costs and related support costs as a result of increased headcount. Research and development expenses include stock-based compensation and amortization of intangible assets of $2.0 million and $1.9 million in the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

Sales and Marketing Expenses. Sales and marketing expenses increased 33.7% to $20.0 million in the three months ended March 31, 2003 from $15.0 million in the three months ended March 31, 2002. Sales and marketing expenses were 34.3% and 46.8% of total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The dollar increase was primarily related to the expansion of our sales and marketing organizations, including increased compensation-related expenses resulting from the growth of our sales force and higher commissions expense associated with increased revenues. Sales and marketing expenses include stock-based compensation and amortization of intangible assets of $2.2 million and $2.8 million in the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses increased 15.8% to $4.9 million in the three months ended March 31, 2003 from $4.2 million in the three months ended March 31, 2002. General and administrative expenses were 8.3% and 13.1% of total revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The dollar increase was primarily related to increased personnel costs and related support costs as a result of increased headcount. General and administrative expenses include stock-based compensation of approximately $656,000 and $691,000 in the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

Stock-based Compensation. During the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, we recorded stock-based compensation expense of $5.5 million and $6.1 million, respectively. As of March 31, 2003, $28.6 million of deferred stock compensation remained to be amortized over the next eleven quarters.

Amortization of Intangible Assets. During the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, we recorded amortization of intangible assets of approximately $245,000 and $0, respectively. The amortization of intangible assets is associated with the OneSecure acquisition that we completed in September 2002 and will continue until fiscal 2012. As of March 31, 2003, $5.3 million of intangible assets remained unamortized.

Interest and other income, net, was $1.0 million in both the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002. The impact of higher average cash, cash equivalents and short-term investment balances was offset by lower average investment income yield.

We recorded an income tax provision of $3.6 million and approximately $339,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2003, the provision for income taxes represented federal alternative minimum taxes, state taxes and foreign taxes and also reflected the impact of non-deductible deferred stock-based compensation expense for a GAAP effective tax rate of 38.1%.

For the three months ended March 31, 2002, the provision for income taxes represented federal income taxes and income taxes payable on income generated in non-U.S. tax jurisdictions for which no U.S. tax benefit was recognizable.

Product Revenues. Revenues from sales of our products increased 78.7% to $90.4 million in the six months ended March 31, 2003 from $50.6 million in the six months ended March 31, 2002. This increase was primarily attributable to increased sales of all product categories and an increase in revenue recognized from our mid-range products, including revenue from shipments made in the period and deferred revenue recognized from shipments in prior quarters. Hardware revenue units increased to approximately 56,000 units in the six months ended March 31, 2003 from approximately 34,000 units in the six months ended March 31, 2002.

Maintenance and Service Revenues. Revenues from maintenance and services increased 82.6% to $19.0 million in the six months ended March 31, 2003 from $10.4 million in the six months ended March 31, 2002. This increase was the result of the higher volume of products shipped and the related recognition of revenues associated with the portion of product revenues attributable to maintenance and services over the applicable maintenance period, as well as increased customer purchases of enhanced service offerings and renewals of maintenance contracts across a larger installed base of customers.

No single customer accounted for 10% or more of our total revenues in the six months ended March 31, 2003 or 2002.

We cannot assure you that our revenues will continue to increase in absolute dollars or at the rate at which they have grown in recent periods or at all.

Product Cost of Revenues. Product cost of revenues increased 43.7% to $19.9 million in the six months ended March 31, 2003 from $13.9 million in the six months ended March 31, 2002. This increase reflects the greater quantity of products sold, partially offset by reductions in the prices at which we purchase our products from our manufacturers. Product cost of revenues includes stock-based compensation and amortization of intangible assets of $1.2 million and approximately $821,000 for the six months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

Product Gross Margin. Product gross margin including stock-based compensation and amortization of intangible assets, as a percentage of product revenues increased to 78.0% in the six months ended March 31, 2003 from 72.6% in the six months ended March 31, 2002. The increase in product gross margin was primarily attributable to increased sales and improved selling prices of our higher-margin mid-range products. The increase in product gross margin was also attributable to reductions in the prices at which we purchase our products from our manufacturers. We expect our selling prices and product gross margin to decline over time.

Maintenance and Service Cost of Revenues. Maintenance and service cost of revenues increased 78.5% to $5.6 million in the six months ended March 31, 2003 from $3.2 million in the six months ended March 31, 2002. This increase was primarily related to increases in costs related to the expansion of our customer support infrastructure and the larger installed base of products for which we provide service. Maintenance and service cost of revenues includes stock-based compensation of approximately $554,000 and $468,000 for the six months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

Maintenance and Service Gross Margin. Maintenance and service gross margin, including stock-based compensation, as a percentage of maintenance and service revenues was 70.3% in the six months ended March 31, 2003 compared to 69.6% in the six months ended March 31, 2002. The increase in maintenance and service gross margin was primarily attributable to our ability to support higher service revenues with our existing organization and support infrastructure. We expect our maintenance and service gross margin to decline over time.

Research and Development Expenses. Research and development expenses increased 33.6% to $20.9 million in the six months ended March 31, 2003 from $15.6 million in the six months ended March 31, 2002. These expenses represented 19.1% and 25.6% of total revenues for the six months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The dollar increase was primarily attributable to increased personnel costs and related support costs as a result of increased headcount. Research and development expenses include stock-based compensation and amortization of intangible assets of $4.0 million and $3.8 million in the six months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

Sales and Marketing Expenses. Sales and marketing expenses increased 35.9% to $40.2 million in the six months ended March 31, 2003 from $29.6 million in the six months ended March 31, 2002. Sales and marketing expenses were 36.7% and 48.5% of total revenues for the six months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The dollar increase was primarily related to the expansion of our sales and marketing organizations, including increased compensation-related expenses resulting from the growth of our sales force and higher commissions expense associated with increased revenues and, to a lesser extent, increased marketing-related program costs. Sales and marketing expenses include stock-based compensation and amortization of intangible assets of $4.9 million and $5.6 million in the six months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses increased 7.3% to $9.0 million in the six months ended March 31, 2003 from $8.4 million in the six months ended March 31, 2002. General and administrative expenses were 8.3% and 13.8% of total revenues for the six months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The dollar increase was primarily attributable to increased personnel costs and related support costs as a result of increased headcount, partially offset by a reduction in bad debt expense. General and administrative expenses include stock-based compensation of $1.4 million and $1.3 million in the six months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

Stock-based Compensation. During the six months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, we recorded stock-based compensation expense of $11.6 million and $12.0 million, respectively. As of March 31, 2003, $28.6 million of deferred stock compensation remained to be amortized over the next eleven quarters.

Amortization of Intangible Assets. During the six months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, we recorded amortization of intangible assets of approximately $489,000 and $0, respectively. The amortization of intangible assets is associated with the OneSecure acquisition that we completed in September 2002 and will continue until fiscal 2012. As of March 31, 2003, $5.3 million of intangible assets remained unamortized.

Interest and other income, net, was $2.1 million in the six months ended March 31, 2003 compared to interest and other income, net, of approximately $1.3 million in the six months ended March 31, 2002. The increase in interest and other income, net, was primarily a result of increased interest income earned on higher average cash, cash equivalent and short-term investment balances in the six months ended March 31, 2003, partially offset by lower investment income yield.

We recorded an income tax provision of $6.7 million and approximately $639,000 for the six months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. For the six months ended March 31, 2003, the provision for income taxes represented federal alternative minimum taxes, state taxes and foreign taxes and also reflected the impact of non-deductible deferred stock-based compensation expense for a GAAP effective tax rate of 42.4%.

For the six months ended March 31, 2002, the provision for income taxes represented federal income taxes and income taxes payable on income generated in non-U.S. tax jurisdictions for which no U.S. tax benefit was recognizable.

Since our inception, we have financed our operations primarily through sales of our equity securities. Prior to our IPO, we raised a total of $82.6 million through the private sale of convertible preferred stock. In December 2001, we completed the sale of 11,500,000 shares of common stock in our IPO. We realized net proceeds of $168.6 million upon the close of the IPO.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $42.4 million for the six months ended March 31, 2003, compared to $9.7 million for the six months ended March 31, 2002. Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended March 31, 2003 was primarily the result of cash generated from our net income, after adjusting for non-cash operating expenses of $23.3 million and an increase in deferred revenue. The net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended March 31, 2002 was primarily the result of cash generated from our net loss, after adjusting for non-cash operating expenses, of $4.9 million and increases in accrued expenses and deferred revenue.

Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002 was $34.0 million and $152.9 million, respectively. Net cash used in investing activities was almost entirely due to net purchases of short-term investments in both periods.

Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended March 31, 2003 was $8.0 million, compared to $200.3 million in the six months ended March 31, 2002. Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended March 31, 2003 was primarily due to net proceeds from the issuance of common stock under employee stock option and purchase plans, partially offset by principal payments on debt and lease obligations. Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended March 31, 2002 was primarily due to the net proceeds from our IPO and the sale of our Series F convertible preferred stock.

As of March 31, 2003, our principal source of liquidity was $294.3 million of cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments. At that date, we had future minimum lease payments under non-cancelable operating leases of $15.8 million and long-term debt and restructuring obligations, including the current portion, of $5.3 million. At March 31, 2003, we had no material commitments for capital expenditures, but we expect to spend between $5.0 million and $7.0 million during the remaining six months of fiscal 2003 on capital expenditures related to operational infrastructure.

In February 2001, we entered into an equipment leasing arrangement of $514,000. The lease is payable in monthly installments of principal and interest of approximately $15,000 through February 2004. As of March 31, 2003, approximately $159,000 was outstanding under this arrangement.

In April 2001, we entered into a loan and security agreement under which we could borrow up to $3.5 million to finance eligible equipment purchases. The lender has a security interest in the purchased equipment. Borrowings under the agreement bear interest at the U.S. Treasury note rate for notes with a three-year maturity plus 3.75% and are payable in equal monthly installments over a three-year term. A final payment equal to 9% of the amount borrowed, due at the end of the three-year term, has been treated as an additional finance charge and is being amortized over the term of the loan. We are not required to meet any financial covenants under this agreement. The available commitment expired on November 30, 2001. As of March 31, 2003, we had borrowed $2.0 million at an annual interest rate of 8.2% under this agreement, of which approximately $924,000 was outstanding.

In August 2001, we entered into a loan and security agreement under which we could borrow up to $3.0 million to finance eligible equipment purchases. The lender has a security interest in the purchased equipment. Borrowings under the agreement bear interest at the U.S. Treasury note rate for notes with a three-year maturity plus 9.5% and are payable in equal monthly installments over terms ranging from 33 to 36 months. We are required to maintain an unrestricted domestic cash balance of $11.0 million while borrowings are outstanding under the agreement. The available commitment expired on November 30, 2001. As of March 31, 2003, we had borrowed $1.3 million at an annual interest rate of 13.8% and approximately $944,000 at an annual rate of 13.3% under this arrangement. The total amount outstanding under this arrangement was $1.2 million as of March 31, 2003.

In August 2000, we entered into a lease for approximately 51,000 square feet of office space in Sunnyvale, California, which commenced on January 21, 2001 and terminated on February 14, 2003. The lease was secured by a $746,000 standby letter of credit as of March 31, 2003, which remains in place pending the completion of certain activities to return the leased space to its original condition.

In October 2002, we entered into a lease for a new approximately 156,000 square foot corporate headquarters in Sunnyvale, California. Rent payments under the lease are approximately $231,000 per month and commence February 14, 2003. The lease terminates on May 13, 2008. Under the terms of the lease, we may lease an additional approximately 22,000 square feet in the facility at an additional monthly rent of approximately $32,000. We can exercise this option to lease the additional space at anytime through February 14, 2004. The lease was secured by a $694,000 standby letter of credit as of March 31, 2003.

We acquired OneSecure in September 2002. In connection with the acquisition, we assumed noncancelable operating leases for domestic sales offices that were not occupied by OneSecure and that will not be occupied by us. In addition, we assumed the noncancelable operating lease for OneSecure’s headquarters in Sunnyvale, California, which is a duplicate facility. We have recorded a restructuring liability for the net present value of these leases, net of expected sublease income, for the periods these facilities will be unoccupied.

We have entered into several leases for domestic and foreign sales office facilities. The leases expire at various dates through August 2005. The related cost of the leases is approximately $99,000 per month.

Flash Electronics, Inc. manufactures, assembles and tests the NetScreen-100, NetScreen-50, NetScreen-25, NetScreen-204, NetScreen-208, NetScreen IDP-100 and NetScreen IDP-500 products. Solectron Corporation manufactures, assembles and tests the NetScreen-5200, NetScreen-5400, NetScreen-500, NetScreen-5XP and NetScreen-5XT products. We purchase from these manufactures on a purchase order basis, and do not have long-term supply contracts. At March 31, 2003, we had noncancelable purchase orders of $5.1 million to Flash Electronics, Inc. and Solectron Corporation.

In July 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 146, “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities” (“SFAS 146”). SFAS 146 addresses financial accounting and reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities and nullifies Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) Issue No. 94-3, “Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring).” SFAS 146 requires that a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized when the liability is incurred rather than when the exit or disposal is approved. We adopted this pronouncement on January 1, 2003. The adoption of this pronouncement is not expected to have a material impact on our current financial position or results of operations.

In November 2002, the FASB issued Financial Interpretation No. 45, “Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others” (“FIN 45”). FIN 45 elaborates on the existing disclosure requirements for most guarantees, including loan guarantees such as standby letters of credit, and provides new disclosure requirements regarding indemnification provisions, including indemnification provisions typically included in a technology arrangement. It also clarifies that at the time a guarantee is issued, the guarantor must recognize an initial liability for the fair value of the obligations it assumes under the guarantee and must disclose that information in its financial statements. The provisions related to recognizing a liability at inception of the guarantee do not apply to product warranties, indemnification provisions in the guarantor’s technology arrangements, or to guarantees accounted for as derivatives. The initial recognition and measurement provisions apply to guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002, and the disclosure requirements apply to guarantees outstanding as of December 31, 2002. We adopted FIN 45 in December 2002. We do not expect the adoption of FIN 45 to have a material impact on our current financial position or results of operations.

In December 2002, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation—Transition and Disclosure” (“SFAS 148”), which amends SFAS 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.” SFAS 148 provides alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, SFAS 148 amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS 123 and will require companies to prominently disclose in both annual and interim financial statements the company’s method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the method used on the company’s financial position and results of operations. The transition guidance and annual disclosure requirements of SFAS 148 are effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2002. We are required to adopt the interim disclosure requirements of SFAS 148 for financial statements in our fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2003. We will continue to account for our stock purchase plan and stock option plans under the provisions of APB No.25. SFAS 148 is not anticipated to have a material impact on our current financial position or results of operations.

In January 2003, the FASB issued Financial Interpretation No. 46, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” (“FIN 46”). FIN 46 requires an investor with a majority of the variable interest entity to consolidate the entity and also requires majority and significant variable interest investors to provide certain disclosures. A variable interest entity is an entity in which the equity investors do not have a controlling interest or the equity investment at risk is insufficient to finance the entity’s activities without receiving additional subordinated financial support from the other parties. We adopted FIN 46 in January 2003. We do not currently have any interest in variable entities and, accordingly, do not expect the adoption of FIN 46 to have a material impact on our current financial position or results of operations.

In addition to other information in this report, the following risk factors should be carefully considered in evaluating us and our business because these factors may have a significant impact on our business, operating results or financial condition. Actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements contained in this report as a result of the risk factors discussed below and elsewhere in this report.

Prolonged weakness in the Internet infrastructure, network security and related markets may decrease our revenues and margins.

The market for our products depends on economic conditions affecting the broader Internet infrastructure, network security and related markets. Prolonged weakness in these markets may cause enterprises and carriers to delay or cancel security projects, reduce their overall or security-specific information technology budgets or reduce or cancel orders for our products. In this environment, our customers such as distributors, value-added resellers and carriers may experience financial difficulty, cease operations and fail to budget or reduce budgets for the purchase of our products. This, in turn, may lead to longer sales cycles, delays in purchase decisions, payment and collection, and may also result in price pressures, causing us to realize lower revenues, gross margins and operating margins. In addition, general economic uncertainty caused by potential hostilities involving the United States, terrorist activities, the decline in specific markets such as the service provider market in the United States, and the general decline in capital spending in the information technology sector make it difficult to predict changes in the purchase and network requirements of our customers and the markets we serve. We believe that, in light of these events, some businesses may curtail or eliminate capital spending on information technology. If capital spending in our markets declines, our revenues, gross margins and operating margins may decline and make it necessary for us to gain significant market share from our competitors in order to achieve our financial goals and maintain profitability.

The market for network security products is highly competitive, and we expect competition to intensify in the future. Competitors may gain market share and introduce new competitive products for the same markets and customers currently served by our products. These products may have better performance, lower prices and broader acceptance than our products.

Current and potential competitors in our market include the following, all of which sell worldwide or have a presence in most of the major geographical markets for their products:

Many of our current or potential competitors have longer operating histories, greater name recognition, larger customer bases and significantly greater financial, technical, sales, marketing and other resources than we do. In addition, some of our competitors currently combine their products with other companies’ networking and security products to compete with our products. These competitors also often combine their sales and marketing efforts to compete with our products. This competition may result in reduced prices, lower gross and operating margins and longer sales cycles for our products. If any of our larger competitors were to commit greater technical, sales, marketing and other resources to our markets, or reduce prices for their products over a sustained period of time, our ability to successfully sell our products, increase revenue or meet our or investor expectations could be adversely affected.

We may not be successful in integrating the operations of OneSecure or any other future acquisitions.

On September 18, 2002, we completed the acquisition of OneSecure, Inc. Achieving the anticipated benefits of the merger will depend in part upon whether we can integrate the operations, products and technology of OneSecure with our operations, products and technology in a timely and cost-effective manner. The process of combining two companies is complex, expensive and time consuming and may cause an interruption of, or loss of momentum in, the product development and sales activities and operations of both companies. We cannot assure you that any part or all of the integration will be accomplished on a timely basis, or at all. Assimilating OneSecure, or any other companies we may seek to acquire in the future, involves a number of other risks, including, but not limited to:

In addition, the integration of certain operations following any merger will require the time and attention of our management, which may distract attention from the day-to-day business of the combined company. Failure to effectively integrate the operations of OneSecure, or any other companies we may seek to acquire in the future, could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Failure to successfully develop and introduce new products or product enhancements and address evolving standards in the network security industry would cause our revenues to decline.

We may not be able to develop new products or product enhancements in a timely manner, or at all. Any failure to develop or introduce these new products and product enhancements might cause our existing products to be less competitive, may adversely effect our ability to sell solutions to address large customer deployments and, as a consequence, our revenues may decline. In addition, the introduction of products embodying new technologies could render our existing products obsolete, which would have a direct, adverse effect on our market share and revenues. Any failure of our future products or product enhancements to achieve market acceptance could cause our revenue to be below our or investor expectations and our operating results could be adversely affected.

The market for network security products is characterized by rapid technological change, frequent new product introductions, changes in customer requirements and evolving industry standards. We expect to continue to introduce new products and enhancements to existing products to address current and evolving customer requirements and broader networking trends and vulnerabilities. We also expect to develop products with strategic partners and incorporate third-party advanced security capabilities into our products. In addition, we expect to continue to introduce products and enhancements to existing products to address the needs of larger customers that will require greater levels of complexity and support than we have delivered in the past. Some of these new products and enhancements may require us to develop new hardware architectures and ASICs that involve complex and time consuming processes. In developing and introducing our products, we have made, and will continue to make, assumptions with respect to which features, security standards, performance criteria and support levels will be required by our customers. If we implement features, security standards, performance criteria and support levels that are different from those required by our customers, market acceptance of our products may be significantly reduced or delayed, which would harm our ability to penetrate existing or new markets.

The unpredictability of our quarterly results may cause the trading price of our common stock to decline.

Our quarterly revenues and operating results have varied in the past and will likely continue to vary in the future due to a number of factors, many of which are outside of our control. Any of these factors could cause the price of our common stock to decline. The primary factors that may affect our revenues and operating results include the following:

Our operating expenses are largely based on anticipated revenues and a high percentage of our expenses are, and will continue to be, fixed in the short term. As a result, lower than anticipated revenues for any reason could cause significant variations in our operating results from quarter to quarter and, because of our rapidly growing operating expenses, could result in substantial operating losses.

Due to the factors summarized above, we believe that quarter-to-quarter comparisons of our operating results are not a good indication of our future performance. Also, it is likely that, in some future quarters, our operating results will be below the expectations of public market analysts and investors. In this event, the price of our common stock would likely decline.

Our business may suffer due to risks associated with international sales and operations.

Revenues from outside of the Americas were 63.9% of our total revenues for the six months ended March 31, 2003 and 55.3% of our total revenues for the year ended September 30, 2002. We expect revenues from outside of the Americas will continue to represent a substantial portion of our total revenues for the foreseeable future.

We may not be able to maintain or increase international market demand or international revenues from our products. For example, general economic conditions in international markets can fluctuate and downturns in these markets could have a significant adverse impact on our ability to meet public market expectations and achieve profitability. Also, as agreements with international distributors expire, we may be unable to renew our distributor agreements on favorable terms or make alternative arrangements with other distributors. If we are unable to maintain or increase international market demand and revenues from our products, our revenues and operating results would be adversely affected.

We intend to continue expanding our existing international operations and to enter new international markets. This expansion will require significant management attention and financial resources. We currently have limited experience in marketing and distributing our products internationally and in developing versions of our products that comply with local standards. In addition, international operations are subject to other inherent risks, including:

The health crisis related to SARS may adversely affect our business operations.

The recent health crisis in Asia related to SARS has led us to restrict non-essential travel to the APAC region and cancel a sales conference. If travel restrictions, quarantines and closures of public areas in Asia continue, or expand throughout or beyond the region, such actions may have a negative impact on our business operations as well as those of our third party manufacturers, such as Solectron Corporation, and lead to delays of sales and manufacturing which could adversely affect our business operations.

The long sales and implementation cycles for our products may cause revenues and operating results to vary significantly.

An end customer’s decision to purchase our products often involves a significant commitment of its resources and a lengthy evaluation and product qualification process. Throughout the sales cycle, we often spend considerable time educating and providing information to prospective customers regarding the use and benefits of our products. Budget constraints and the need for multiple approvals within enterprises, carriers and government entities may also delay the purchase decision. Failure to obtain the required approval for a particular project or purchase decision may delay the purchase of our products. As a result, the sales cycle for our security systems is typically 60 to 90 days. Additionally, our security systems and intrusion detection and prevention products are complex systems designed for the enterprise and service provider markets. These systems and products require us to maintain a sophisticated sales force, engage in extensive negotiations, and provide high-level engineering support to complete sales. If these systems and products are not successful with enterprise and service provider customers, our revenue could be below our expectations and our operating results could be adversely affected.

Even after making the decision to purchase our products, our end customers may not deploy our products broadly within their networks. The timing of implementation can vary widely and depends on the skill set of the end customer, the size of the network deployment, the complexity of the end customer’s network environment and the degree of hardware and software configuration necessary to deploy our products. End customers with large networks usually expand their networks in large increments on a periodic basis and large deployments and purchases of our security systems also require a significant outlay of capital from end customers. If our end customers delay implementation of our products due to these factors, our revenue could be below our expectations and our operating results could be adversely affected.

Our limited history with our newer products makes it difficult to evaluate our business and prospects.

We introduced several new system and appliance products in 2002. As a result of our limited history with these products, it may be difficult to plan operating expenses or forecast our revenues accurately. Our assumptions about customer or network requirements may be wrong. The revenue and income potential of these products is unproven and the markets addressed by these products are volatile. Likewise, we may not be able to effectively combine OneSecure’s technologies into our own products, successfully market or enhance OneSecure’s line of IDP appliances, or offer a viable combined hardware or management product that addresses the needs of our customers. If such products fail to gain market acceptance, our revenue could be below our or investor expectations and our operating results could be adversely affected.

If we fail to develop or maintain relationships with value-added resellers or distribution partners, or if our value-added resellers or distribution partners are not successful in their sales efforts, sales of our products may decrease and our operating results would suffer.

We derived approximately 93.5% of our total revenues from value-added resellers and distributors in the six months ended March 31, 2003. In the year ended September 30, 2002, we derived approximately 86.9% of our total revenues from value-added resellers and distributors. We expect our revenues to continue to depend in large part on the performance of these third-party distributors and resellers. In addition, our value-added resellers and distributors may be unsuccessful in selling our products and services, may sell products and services that are competitive with ours, may devote more resources to competitive products and may cease selling our products and services altogether. The loss of or reduction in sales to our value-added resellers or distributors could materially reduce our revenues. If we fail to develop and maintain additional relationships with these distribution partners, or if these partners are not successful in their sales efforts, sales of our products may decrease and our operating results would suffer.

Our reliance on third parties to manufacture, assemble, test and fulfill orders for our products could cause a delay in our ability to fill orders, which might cause us to lose sales.

Flash Electronics, Inc. manufactures, assembles, tests and fulfills orders for the NetScreen-100, NetScreen-50, NetScreen-25, NetScreen-204, NetScreen-208, NetScreen IDP-500 and NetScreen IDP-100 products at its Fremont, California facility. Solectron Corporation manufactures, assembles, tests and fulfills orders for the NetScreen-5400, NetScreen-5200 and NetScreen-500 products at its San Jose, California facility and the NetScreen-5XP and NetScreen-5XT products at its facility in China. We currently do not have a long-term supply contract with either Flash Electronics or Solectron, and we purchase from these manufacturers on a purchase order basis. If we should fail to manage our relationship with Flash Electronics or Solectron effectively, or if either of these manufacturers experiences delays, disruptions or quality control problems in its manufacturing and order fulfillment operations, our ability to ship products to our customers could be delayed.

The absence of dedicated capacity with Flash Electronics and Solectron means that, with little or no notice, they could refuse to continue manufacturing some or all of our products. Qualifying a new contract manufacturer and commencing volume production is expensive and time-consuming. If we are required or choose to change contract manufacturers, we could lose revenues and damage our customer relationships.

Our proprietary GigaScreen and GigaScreen-II ASICs, which are key to the functionality of our hardware-based products, are fabricated by foundries operated by Toshiba America Electronic Components, Inc. We have no long-term contract with Toshiba and purchase our ASICs on a purchase order basis. If Toshiba materially delays its supply of ASICs to us, or requires us to find an alternate supplier and we are not able to do so on a timely and reasonable basis, our revenue and operating results would be adversely affected.

Our reliance on third-party manufacturers also exposes us to the following risks outside our control:

We currently purchase several key components, including semiconductors, from single or limited sources. We carry very little inventory of some of our products and product components, and we rely on our suppliers to deliver necessary components to our contract manufacturers in a timely manner based on the forecasts we provide. Some of the semiconductors we require are very complex, and we may not be able to develop an alternate source in a timely manner, which could hurt our ability to deliver our products to our customers. We also purchase power supplies from a single source and purchase other custom components from other sole or limited sources. If we are unable to buy these components on a timely basis, we will not be able to deliver products to our customers and our revenue and operating results would be adversely affected.

At various times, some of the key components for our products, such as flash memory, have been in short supply. Delays in receiving components would harm our ability to deliver our products on a timely basis. In addition, because we rely on purchase orders rather than long-term contracts with our suppliers, we cannot predict with certainty our ability to procure components in the longer term. If we receive a smaller allocation of components than is necessary to manufacture products in quantities sufficient to meet customer demand, customers could choose to purchase competing products.

A breach of network security could harm public perception of our products, which could cause us to lose revenues.

If an actual or perceived breach of network security occurs in one of our end customer’s network systems, regardless of whether the breach is attributable to our products, the market perception of the effectiveness of our products could be harmed. This could cause us to lose current and potential end customers or cause us to lose current and potential value-added resellers and distributors. Because the techniques used by computer hackers to access or sabotage networks change frequently and generally are not recognized until launched against a target, we may be unable to anticipate these techniques.

Undetected product errors or defects could result in loss of revenues, delayed market acceptance and claims against us.

We offer a warranty on all of our products, allowing the end customer to have any defective unit repaired, or to receive a replacement product for it during the warranty period. Our products may contain undetected errors or defects. If there is a broad product failure across our customer base, we may decide to replace all affected products or we may decide to refund the purchase price for defective units. Such defects and actions may adversely affect our ability to record revenue for units. Some errors are discovered only after a product has been installed and used by end customers. Any errors discovered after commercial release could result in loss of revenues and claims against us.

If we are unable to fix errors or other problems that later are identified after full deployment, in addition to the consequence described above, we could experience:

If our products do not interoperate with our end customers’ networks, installations would be delayed or cancelled, which could significantly reduce our revenues.

Our products are designed to interface with our end customers’ existing networks, each of which has different specifications and utilizes multiple protocol standards. Many of our end customers’ networks contain multiple generations of products that have been added over time as these networks have grown and evolved. Our products must interoperate with all of the products within these networks as well as with future products that might be added to these networks in order to meet our end customers’ requirements. If we find errors in the existing software used in our end customers’ networks, we may elect to modify our software to fix or overcome these errors so that our products will interoperate and scale with their existing software and hardware. If our products do not interoperate with those within our end customers’ networks, customer installations could be delayed or orders for our products could be cancelled, which could significantly reduce our revenues.

If we fail to predict our manufacturing requirements accurately, we could incur additional costs or experience manufacturing delays, which could reduce our gross margins or cause us to lose sales.

Because we currently do not have long-term supply contracts with our contract manufacturers, they are not obligated to supply products to us for any specific period, in any specific quantity or at any certain price, except as may be provided in a particular purchase order. We provide forecasts of our demand to our contract manufacturers up to six months prior to scheduled delivery of products to our customers. If we overestimate our requirements, our contract manufacturers may have excess inventory, which would increase our costs. If we underestimate our requirements, our contract manufacturers may have an inadequate component inventory, which could interrupt manufacturing of our products and result in delays in shipments and revenues. In addition, lead times for materials and components that we order vary significantly and depend on factors such as the specific supplier, contract terms and demand for each component at a given time. We may also experience shortages of components from time to time, which also could delay the manufacturing of our products.

We achieved profitability on a GAAP basis for the first time in the three months ended December 31, 2002. Prior to the quarter ended December 31, 2002, we had incurred significant losses since our inception in October 1997. We may incur losses in the future. As of March 31, 2003, we had an accumulated deficit of $123.4 million. We had net losses applicable to common stockholders of $41.1 million for the year ended September 30, 2002, $34.2 million for the year ended September 30, 2001, and $33.7 million for the year ended September 30, 2000. We expect to continue to incur increasing sales and marketing, research and development and general and administrative expenses. As a result, we will need to continue generating higher revenues to maintain profitability. Revenue growth depends on many factors, including those described elsewhere in these “Factors That May Affect Our Business and Future Results of Operations and Financial Condition.” Our revenues may not grow, our gross margins and operating margins may decline and we may not maintain profitability. A failure to maintain profitability could cause our stock price to decline.

We depend on our key personnel to manage our business effectively in a rapidly changing market, and if we are unable to hire additional personnel or retain existing personnel, our ability to execute our business strategy would be impaired.

Our future success depends upon the continued services of our executive officers, including in particular Robert D. Thomas and Feng Deng and other key engineering, sales, marketing and support personnel. None of our officers or key employees are bound by an employment agreement for any specific term, and no one is constrained from terminating his or her employment relationship with us at any time. In addition, since a number of our long-standing employees have most of their stock options or restricted stock vested, their economic incentive to remain in our employ may be diminished. Further, we do not have key person life insurance policies covering any of our employees. We also intend to hire a significant number of engineering, sales, marketing and support personnel in the future, and we believe our success depends, in large part, upon our ability to attract and retain these key employees. The loss of the services of any of our key employees, the inability to attract or retain qualified personnel in the future, or delays in hiring required personnel, could delay the development and introduction of, and negatively impact our ability to sell, our products.

We may experience difficulties with our systems of management and internal controls that could harm our business.

Our ability to sell our products and implement our business plan successfully in a volatile and growing market requires effective management and financial systems and a system of internal processes and controls. Growth in future operations may cause strain on our systems, processes and controls. To meet these challenges, we will need to improve our management systems and our internal controls for financial reporting, and will need to continue to expand, train and manage our workforce worldwide. If we do not meet these challenges, we may be unable to expand our business or to meet competitive challenges and it will be more difficult to manage our operations.

We are exposed to fluctuations in currency exchange rates that could negatively impact our results of operations.

Our international sales are currently denominated in U.S. dollars. As a result, an increase in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to foreign currencies could make our products less price competitive in international markets, affect our customers’ ability to pay amounts due and negatively impact our revenues from international operations. Additionally, in the future we may elect to invoice some of our international customers in local currency, which could subject our revenues related to such customers to fluctuations in exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and the local currency.

We might have to defend lawsuits or pay damages in connection with any alleged or actual failure of our products and services.

Because our products and services provide and monitor network security and may protect valuable information, we could face claims for product liability, tort or breach of warranty. Anyone who circumvents our security measures could misappropriate the confidential information or other property of end customers using our products, or interrupt their operations. If that happens, affected end customers or others may sue us. In addition, we may face liability for breaches caused by faulty installation of our products by our service and support organizations. Provisions in our contracts relating to warranty disclaimers and liability limitations may be unenforceable. Some courts, for example, have found contractual limitations of liability in standard computer and software contracts to be unenforceable in some circumstances. Defending a lawsuit, regardless of its merit, could be costly and could divert management attention. Our business liability insurance coverage may be inadequate or future coverage may be unavailable on acceptable terms or at all.

If we fail to protect our intellectual property rights, end customers or potential competitors might be able to use our technologies to develop their own solutions, which could weaken our competitive position or reduce our revenues.

We rely on a combination of patent, copyright, trademark and trade secret laws and restrictions on disclosure to protect our intellectual property rights. As of March 31, 2003, we had nine patent applications pending in the United States relating to our products, three of which have been extended to other countries. Our pending patent applications may not result in the issuance of any patents. Even if we obtain such patents, that will not guarantee that our patent rights will be valuable, create a competitive barrier or will be free from infringement. Furthermore, if any patent is issued, it might be invalidated or circumvented or otherwise fail to provide us any meaningful protection. We also enter into confidentiality agreements with our employees, consultants and corporate partners, and control the use, access to and distribution of our software, documentation and other proprietary information. Unauthorized parties may attempt to copy or otherwise obtain and use our products or technology. Monitoring unauthorized use of our products is difficult, and the steps we have taken may not prevent unauthorized use of our technology, particularly in foreign countries where the laws may not protect our proprietary rights as fully as in the United States.

We could become subject to litigation regarding intellectual property rights that could be costly and result in the loss of significant rights.

In recent years, there has been significant litigation in the United States involving patents and other intellectual property rights. We may become a party to litigation in the future to protect our intellectual property or as a result of an alleged infringement of another party’s intellectual property. Claims for alleged infringement and any resulting lawsuit, if successful, could subject us to significant liability for damages and invalidation of our proprietary rights. These lawsuits, regardless of their success, would likely be time-consuming and expensive to resolve and would divert management time and attention. Any potential intellectual property litigation could also force us to do one or more of the following:

If we are forced to take any of these actions, our business might be seriously harmed. Our insurance may not cover potential claims of this type or may not be adequate to indemnify us for all liability that could be imposed.

The inability to obtain any third-party license required to develop new products and product enhancements could require us to obtain substitute technology of lower quality or performance standards or at greater cost, which could seriously harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.

From time to time, we may be required to license technology from third parties to develop new products or product enhancements. Third-party licenses may not be available to us on commercially reasonable terms or at all. The inability to obtain any third-party license required to develop new products or product enhancements could require us to obtain substitute technology of lower quality or performance standards or at greater cost, which could seriously harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We will record substantial expenses related to our issuance of stock options that will have a material negative impact on our results of operations.

We have granted stock options under our stock option plans since November 1997. We are required to recognize, as a reduction of stockholders’ equity, deferred stock compensation expense equal to the difference between the deemed fair market value of our common stock for financial reporting purposes and the exercise price of these options at the date of grant. This expense is amortized over the vesting period of the applicable options, generally four years, using the straight-line vesting method. At March 31, 2003, approximately $28.6 million of deferred stock compensation expense related to employee stock options remained unamortized. The resulting amortization expense will have a material negative impact on our results of operations in future periods through the quarter ending December 31, 2005.

Governmental regulations affecting the import or export of products could negatively affect our revenues.

Governmental regulation of imports or exports or failure to obtain required export approval of our encryption technologies could harm our international and domestic sales. The United States and various foreign governments have imposed controls, export license requirements and restrictions on the import or export of some technologies, especially encryption technology. In addition, from time to time, governmental agencies have proposed additional regulation of encryption technology, such as requiring the escrow and governmental recovery of private encryption keys.

In particular, in light of recent terrorist activity, governments could enact additional regulation or restrictions on the use, import or export of encryption technology. Additional regulation of encryption technology could delay or prevent the acceptance and use of encryption products and public networks for secure communications. This might decrease demand for our products and services. In addition, some foreign competitors are subject to less stringent controls on exporting their encryption technologies. As a result, they may be able to compete more effectively than we can in the domestic and international network security market.

Earthquakes, other natural disasters and power shortages may damage our facilities or the facilities of third parties on which we depend.

Our corporate headquarters and two of our third-party manufacturers are located in Northern California near major earthquake faults that have experienced earthquakes in the past. An earthquake or other natural disaster near our headquarters or near one or more of the facilities of third parties upon which we rely could disrupt our operations or the operations of those parties. None of these disruptions would be covered by insurance, so the supply of our products could be limited, our business could be hampered and our financial condition and results of operations could be harmed.

The market prices of the securities of technology-related companies have been extremely volatile. Thus, the market price of our common stock is likely to be subject to wide fluctuations. If our revenues do not grow or grow slower than investors anticipate, if operating or capital expenditures exceed our expectations and cannot be reduced appropriately, or if some other event adversely affects us, the market price of our common stock could decline. In addition, if the market for technology-related stocks or the stock market in general experiences a continued or greater loss in investor confidence or otherwise fails, the market price of our common stock could decline for reasons unrelated to our business, results of operations and financial condition. The market price of our stock also might decline in reaction to events that affect other companies in our industry even if these events do not directly affect us. General political or economic conditions, such as an outbreak of war, a recession or interest rate or currency rate fluctuations, could also cause the market price of our common stock to decline. Our common stock has experienced, and is likely to continue to experience, these fluctuations in price, regardless of our performance.

The concentration of our capital stock ownership with insiders is likely to limit ability of other stockholders to influence corporate matters.

Our executive officers, our directors and entities affiliated with any of them together beneficially own approximately 30% of our outstanding common stock. As a result, these stockholders may be able to exercise control over matters requiring approval by our stockholders, including the election of directors and approval of significant corporate transactions. This concentration of ownership might also have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in our control that might be viewed as beneficial by other stockholders.

Management could invest or spend our cash or cash equivalents and investments in ways that might not enhance our results of operations or market share.

We have made no specific allocations of our cash or cash equivalents and investments. Consequently, management will retain a significant amount of discretion over the application of our cash or cash equivalents and investments and could spend the proceeds in ways that do not improve our operating results or increase our market share. In addition, these proceeds may not be invested to yield a favorable rate of return.

Future sales of shares by existing stockholders could cause our stock price to decline.

If our existing stockholders sell, or are perceived to sell, substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market, the market price of our common stock could decline. As of March 31, 2003, there were 79,912,526 shares of common stock outstanding. Large portions of these freely tradable shares are still held by the same entities that purchased our preferred stock prior to our initial public offering. In October 2002, 5,762,502 shares resulting from the conversion of Series F preferred stock became saleable pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act. Additionally, 23,593,159 shares were held by directors, executive officers and other affiliates, that are subject to volume limitations under Rule 144, various vesting agreements and our quarterly and other “blackout” periods. Furthermore, shares subject to outstanding options and warrants and shares reserved for future issuance under our stock option and purchase plans will become eligible for sale in the public market to the extent permitted by the provisions of various vesting agreements, the lock-up agreements and Rules 144 and 701 under the Securities Act.

Provisions in our charter documents might deter a company from acquiring us, which could inhibit a stockholder from receiving an acquisition premium for their shares.

We have adopted a classified board of directors. Our board is divided into three classes that serve staggered three-year terms. Only one class of directors will be elected each year, while the directors in the other classes will continue on our board for the remainder of their terms. This classification of our board could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire, or could discourage a third party from acquiring, control of NetScreen since it would make it more difficult and time-consuming to replace our then current directors. In addition, our stockholders are unable to call special meetings of stockholders, to act by written consent, to remove any director or the entire board of directors without a supermajority vote or to fill any vacancy on our board of directors. Our stockholders must also meet advance notice requirements for stockholder proposals. Our board may also issue preferred stock without any vote or further action by the stockholders. These provisions and other provisions under Delaware law could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire us, even if doing so would benefit our stockholders.

We develop products in the United States and sell them worldwide. As a result, our financial results could be affected by factors such as changes in foreign currency exchange rates or weak economic conditions in foreign markets. Since our sales are currently priced in U.S. dollars and are translated to local currency amounts, a strengthening of the dollar could make our products less competitive in foreign markets.

As of March 31, 2003, our investment portfolio consisted of money market funds, corporate-backed debt obligations, municipal bonds and U.S. government discount notes, and earned interest at an average rate of 1.7%. We place investments with high quality issuers and limit the amount of credit exposure to any one issuer. These securities are subject to interest rate risks. Based on our portfolio content and our ability to hold investments to maturity, we believe that, a hypothetical 10% increase or decrease in interest rates would not materially affect our interest income, although we cannot assure you of this.

Within the 90-day period prior to the filing of this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-14 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information relating to NetScreen (including its consolidated subsidiaries) required to be included in our Exchange Act filings.

There have been no significant changes in our internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect our internal controls subsequent to the date we carried out our evaluation.

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within NetScreen have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

We are subject to legal proceedings, claims and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. While the outcome of these matters is currently not determinable, we do not expect that the ultimate costs to resolve these matters will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

(d) The Securities and Exchange Commission declared our first registration statement, filed on Form S-1 under the Securities Act of 1933 (File No. 333-71048), relating to our initial public offering of our common stock, effective on December 11, 2001. We are furnishing the following information with respect to the use of proceeds from our initial public offering of common stock, $0.001 par value per share, in December 2001:

We held our 2003 Annual Meeting of Stockholders on February 21, 2003 in Sunnyvale, California. Three matters were submitted to our stockholders for action or approval:

1. Election of three Class II directors, each to serve until his successor has been elected and qualified or until his earlier resignation or removal. The votes for these directors were as follows:

2. Approval of an amendment to our 2001 Equity Incentive Plan to increase the maximum number of shares that may be granted to any individual in any calendar year, to increase the size of initial option grants and annual share limits for directors, and to change vesting and similar provisions applicable to director grants. The votes for this proposal were as follows:

3. Ratification of Ernst & Young LLP to serve as our independent auditors for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2003. The votes for this proposal were as follows:

In each case, the number of shares voting in favor of the proposal was in excess of the vote required to approve the proposal.

Exhibit 99.1 Certification of Chief Executive Officer Pursuant to Section 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

Exhibit 99.2 Certification of Chief Financial Officer Pursuant to Section 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned thereunto duly authorized.
