We are a provider of DVD software, video editing and DVD burning software, television viewing and recording software and InstantON software that allows personal computer (“PC”) users to quickly access multimedia content and devices without requiring booting into traditional operating systems such as Microsoft Windows. We have developed a technology platform from which we have created a broad suite of integrated multimedia software products. These products span the digital video cycle by allowing users to capture, edit, author, distribute, burn and play digital video. Our multimedia software products bring the functionality of popular consumer electronics (“CE”) products such as the DVD player and the digital video recorder, or DVR (also known as a PVR), to PCs. Our software is also used to enhance the functionality of next-generation CE devices. We now offer our multimedia products to manufacturers of handheld devices such as mobile telephones and digital still cameras.

Our software is bundled with products sold by PC and CE original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) and is also sold to CE manufacturers. We also sell our products to PC peripherals manufacturers worldwide and offer our software in up to 27 languages. In addition, we sell our products through retail channels, including over 3,900 U.S. retail stores, and directly to consumers through our websites, which currently operate in 12 languages. We have historically derived a majority of our revenue from sales of our flagship product, WinDVD, a DVD player software, to PC OEMs. In the future, we expect to derive an increasing percentage of our revenue from sales of products other than WinDVD, including: WinDVD Creator, a video editing, DVD authoring and burning application; InterVideo DVD Copy, an application to copy and backup DVDs and CDs; InterVideo Home Theater, a media center suite for the viewing and management of digital media content; Linux-based versions of our DVD and DVR software designed for Linux-based PCs and CE devices; and InstantON.

We have developed the core technologies and products that enable rapid migration of our products to CE devices in addition to multiple PC platforms. We intend to continue developing our intellectual property portfolio

and expanding our product offerings to include additional digital multimedia features, such as the ability to deliver digital video and audio through a home network and to wireless electronics devices.

We were incorporated in California in April 1998 and reincorporated in Delaware in May 2002. We maintain executive offices and principal facilities at 46430 Fremont Blvd., Fremont, CA 94538 and we have additional offices in Taiwan, China and Japan. Our telephone number is 510-651-0888. We also maintain a web site at www.intervideo.com. Investors can obtain copies of our SEC filings from this web site free of charge, as well as from the SEC’s web site at www.sec.gov.

InterVideo and WinDVD are registered trademarks and WinDVD Creator, WinDVD Recorder, LinDVD, LinDVR, WinDVR, WinProducer, IntraVideo Instant-On and InterVideo Home Theater are among the trademarks or service marks of InterVideo.

During the year ended December 31, 2004 and continuing through the first quarter of 2005, we purchased shares of stock in Ulead Systems, Inc. (“Ulead”), a publicly traded company in Taiwan that is a leading developer of innovative video, imaging and DVD authoring software, accumulating a total shareholding percentage of 18.5 percent as of March 31, 2005. On March 14, 2005, we and our wholly-owned subsidiary, InterVideo Digital Technology Corp., announced the commencement of a tender offer to purchase an additional 30.1 to 65 percent of the issued shares of Ulead at 30 NTD (US$0.98) per share of Ulead common stock. Our obligation to purchase the shares is subject to certain closing conditions, including the requirement that there have not been any material adverse change in the financial condition or business of Ulead prior to the expiration of the tender offer on April 13, 2005. Upon the successful completion of the tender offer, the transaction will be valued at between US$23 and US$49 million, and we will own between 50.1 and 85 percent of the outstanding shares of Ulead. These figures include the 18.5 percent of Ulead’s outstanding shares currently owned by us, the shares to be purchased in the tender offer and an additional 1.5% of Ulead’s shares to be purchased outside of the tender offer. We currently intend to maintain Ulead as a majority-owned subsidiary on the Taiwan Stock Exchange.

We believe that our investment in Ulead will strengthen our technology offering and allow us to provide a more comprehensive digital media solution to both retail and OEM customers. Ulead’s strengths in professional DVD authoring, video editing and still image processing complement our tools and provide enhanced opportunities for addressing emerging and rapidly growing markets including multimedia home networking, high definition and Blu-ray DVD and multimedia mobile phones. Ulead’s complementary product offering, strong engineering resources and broad retail presence provide significant opportunities for synergies going forward. Upon completion of the tender offer, we plan to commence the integration of products and technologies of the two companies.

We offer a broad suite of multimedia software products that provide OEMs and consumers with a single solution for a variety of multimedia functions. PCs running our integrated multimedia software can replace several dedicated hardware components such as separate DVD players, DVRs, MP3 players, CD players and digital television set-top boxes. Our products have a common look and feel and allow users to toggle quickly and seamlessly between multimedia functions, such as viewing DVDs or TV and listening to music.

The current version of our software operates on multiple Windows operating systems, including Windows 98, NT4.0, 2000, ME and XP editions. We have also developed versions of our key products for the Linux operating system, which is one of the primary operating systems used in next-generation CE devices.

WinDVD has been certified by Microsoft’s Windows Hardware Quality Lab, or WHQL, as a Motion Video Device on PC hardware and software configurations. In addition, our software is compatible with a broad range

of multimedia hardware products, including specialized graphics chips, audio cards and DVD drives from various suppliers and in various configurations.

Our product architecture has allowed us to efficiently develop new products incorporating additional functionality, such as digital video recording, on-disk editing and direct recording onto DVDs. As a result, we can provide our customers with the ability to increase the functionality of their products at a low cost and in a short time frame. Our proprietary layered architecture also generally enables consumers to update or upgrade multimedia features and capabilities without replacing hardware components, which decreases the risk of obsolescence.

The following is a list of our major products that we currently license to PC OEMs, CE manufacturers, PC peripherals manufacturers and end users.

We have historically derived a majority of our revenue from sales of our WinDVD product. Our OEM customers bundle WinDVD with PCs equipped with DVD drives and Microsoft Windows compatible software to enable those PCs to decode and play DVDs. WinDVD software allows users to enjoy the advantages of DVDs, such as high picture quality, Dolby Digital and DTS surround sound audio decoding, multiple language and subtitle options, navigation and other entertainment options. Our user interface, which appears on the computer screen, resembles the controls for a stand-alone DVD player and other home electronics devices.

We offer WinDVD in 27 different languages, including the most common languages in Europe, South America and Asia, including both traditional and simplified Chinese, Japanese and Korean.

In order to capitalize on increased sales of DVD-recordable drives, we have developed an easy-to-use tool that allows end users to create their own DVDs from their home movies, television and other video content. WinDVD Creator ships with several of the top PC OEMs and DVD drive vendors.

WinDVD Creator integrates into a single package and interface a number of functions by combining video DVD authoring and streamlined editing features. We have also integrated proprietary technology that allows end users to record directly from a camcorder or TV tuner onto a DVD disk without caching onto a hard drive. Our on-disk DVD editing technology allows users to save time by making changes to a DVD directly on the optical media without having to transfer the contents of the DVD to the PC.

WinDVD Creator HD is a high definition video version of WinDVD Creator and provides all of the same functionalities of WinDVD Creator.

Our WinDVR software permits PC users to create high-quality digital recordings of broadcast, cable and satellite television programming with functionality similar to a set-top DVR. Combined with a TV tuner card, WinDVR permits users to manage their television viewing experience by recording programs, movies or sporting events. Users may also utilize sophisticated time shifting features such as live TV pause, simultaneous record and playback, commercial skip, instant replay and multiple-channel preview.

WinDVR also enables PC users to watch high definition digital television, or HDTV, digital video broadcast, or DVB, or other digital video and audio input. With a digital TV tuner card and our WinDVR

software, users can watch digital broadcasts on a PC or on a DTV-ready television set. WinDVR supports all 18 ATSC, or American Television Systems Committee, formats and DVB formats used in Europe and Asia.

WinDVD Recorder provides all the functionality of WinDVD and WinDVR and adds a “single button” recording function that allows users to record television or camcorder home movies onto their computer hard disk or onto DVD recordable media. WinDVD Recorder is designed to take advantage of the same market growth in DVD recordable drives that WinDVD Creator leverages. WinDVD Recorder targets the non-expert user who is more comfortable with the features typically found on CE products such as VCRs.

Our InterVideo Home Theater product is a media center suite for viewing and managing digital media content. This product enables users to watch high-quality video with surround sound, record favorite broadcast or cable programs, watch DVDs, manage and listen to CDs and digital audio files, and manage and view digital photograph libraries. All of the functions are unified under a user-friendly software interface. The product is designed to be incorporated on PCs used as home digital multimedia entertainment platforms that may be connected to a television to provide a living room style entertainment environment.

Our InterVideo DVD Copy software allows users to copy and backup DVDs and VideoCDs. With the rapid growth of DVD recordable devices, users increasingly want to duplicate DVDs and other video discs and to store and backup their discs. InterVideo DVD Copy is designed not to allow the copy of copy-protected DVDs.

Our InterVideo DiscMaster software allows users to transfer their data files, music, etc. from their hard drive to a CD-RW drive or DVD-recordable drive.

Our InterVideo PhotoAlbum software allows users to transfer their image files from digital still cameras, or import them from other storage or scanning devices, organize the image files, edit them, and share them through playback, web, printing, and DVD slideshows.

Our recently introduced InterVideo MediaOne software packages many of InterVideo’s popular applications such as WinDVD, WinDVD Creator, DiscMaster, PhotoAlbum and others into an organized task-based launch environment that allows users to easily select the task they wish to complete and enter the appropriate application to complete their task.

InterVideo InstantON technology provides an embedded system infrastructure that provides PCs with capabilities similar to those of CE devices, allowing PC users to access multimedia assets and devices without requiring booting into traditional operating systems such as Microsoft Windows. InstantON allows PCs to function with a remote control in a manner familiar to users that are comfortable accessing CE devices. We believe that this infrastructure improves the system reliability, human interface, power management, noise control, mean time between failures (MTBF), and glitch-free audio/video playback. InstantON allows PC users to

access multimedia assets, such as music, photos and videos, and multimedia devices, such as DVD drives or TV tuners, much more quickly than is possible using conventional operating systems and their applications.

Linux is an important operating platform used by CE manufacturers in their latest generation of intelligent CE devices. In addition, PC OEMs and manufacturers of cable, Internet and satellite set-top boxes have increasingly used Linux as the operating system for their PCs and intelligent devices. We offer embedded Linux versions of our DVD and DVR PC software, including LinDVD and LinDVR. These products are designed to enable next-generation CE devices and Linux-based PCs, Internet appliances and set-top boxes to provide DVD playback and recording capabilities. LinDVD and LinDVR are based on our Windows-based software engines, which reduced our time to market with these products and which contributes to a level of performance similar to our WinDVD and WinDVR products.

Our modular and layered design approach enhances product expandability and component reusability. Because we arrange modular components in layered structures, we can quickly and efficiently add new features to a product by plugging in new components into appropriate layers. For example, we incorporated the TV and video recording feature into our WinDVD product to create WinDVD Recorder with the addition of new components. Similarly, we enhanced the capabilities of WinDVD Recorder by reusing the Direct Recording feature from WinDVD Creator to enable direct recording from TV or camera to DVD. Because of component reusability, our new products were developed with fewer resources and in less time than would have been required to design them using entirely new components. As new functionality becomes necessary or available for a specific platform, we intend to develop the appropriate modules that expand our products to deliver more and more technology under a single product or as specialized products for that platform.

Our flexible design approach and portable implementation allow our software to support a significant number of PC platforms and to work with a broad variety of PC configurations. A significant portion of the software code that is used to implement our products is platform independent. Each software module contains a platform-independent core that is surrounded by a platform-dependent software wrapper that interacts with the devices of a given platform. As a result, we can efficiently port an existing product to a new operating system or hardware platform and cost-effectively support many customers and varied product lines. An example of this type of platform portability is the development of LinDVD from WinDVD. Although the platform dependent interfaces are very different, both products share the same DVD navigation and video and audio engines which comprise the large majority of the software code contained in these products.

Our customer base consists primarily of PC OEMs, CE manufacturers and manufacturers of PC peripherals that incorporate our software into their products. For the year ended December 31, 2004, our two largest customers accounted for 38% of our revenue. Our license agreements with customers are typically for a term of one or two years and do not contain any minimum volume commitments.

Consumers may purchase products and product upgrades directly through our Internet commerce sites. We also use distributors to sell our products to consumers through retail distribution channels. Our products are sold in more than 3,900 U.S. retail stores. Our products are also sold by leading online retailers. Revenue derived from our websites and retail channel accounted for 15% of our revenue in the year ended December 31, 2004.

Our sales and marketing strategy focuses on establishing and maintaining license arrangements with PC, peripherals and CE manufacturers. We license our digital multimedia solutions on a non-exclusive worldwide basis to PC, peripherals and CE manufacturers that sell products incorporating these technologies to end users. Members of our sales force, located in China, Germany, Japan, Taiwan and the United States, work closely with our OEM customers to define and customize products, conduct on-site testing and provide engineering and field application engineering support. We have also established a network of independent sales representatives and manufacturing representatives in the United States, Asia and Europe to assist in OEM sales. In addition, we sell our products through established web and retail channels. We use our distribution channels through the Internet to increase direct contact with our customers, facilitate electronic sales of our products and sell associated products directly to consumers. As part of our retail channel growth strategy, we intend to continue to increase our retail presence at several of the larger U.S. retailers that sell PC software. We also distribute free or trial versions of our software through consumer distribution channels, including media and computer magazines, corporate, educational and training DVD titles and on our Internet commerce site. In addition, we intend to actively market and promote our products and take actions to further develop our brand name through trade shows, advertising campaigns and other marketing efforts.

We believe the technical assistance that we provide to OEMs represents an important part of our competitive advantage in maintaining strong relationships with these OEMs. We have built a customer assistance infrastructure composed of sales staff, program managers and quality assurance engineers. We have also created an efficient, cost-effective Internet-based system for the delivery of software and software fixes to OEMs. This infrastructure reduces duplication of effort and fosters better communication channels between the OEMs and ourselves. This infrastructure enables us to provide technical assistance to OEMs with a relatively small staff and has been a key factor in our ability to maintain and grow our OEM customer base.

Our on-line technical support group provides direct customer support to users that purchase our products through retail channels or our websites. Our on-line technical support group also trains the technical support groups of our OEM customers so that they can provide more effective telephone and on-line support for their customers.

Total sales and marketing expenses for the year ended December 31, 2004 were $10.2 million. As of December 31, 2004, we had 93 sales, marketing and technical support personnel residing in our offices in Fremont, California; Taipei, Taiwan; Shanghai and Beijing, China; and Kanagawa, Japan.

We have assembled a qualified team of engineers with core competencies in software architecture and development for the Windows, Windows CE and Linux operating systems and digital video and audio encoders and decoders. Our engineers are located in Fremont, California; Taipei, Taiwan; and Shanghai, Shenzhen and Xi’an, China. We will continue to focus our research and development activities on enhancing our existing products and developing new products to meet the evolving needs of our customers within the PC and the CE markets.

We believe that interaction with our OEM customers throughout the product design process enables us to anticipate technology trends and focus our research and development efforts on addressing emerging customer

needs. We design products to meet our OEM and CE manufacturing customers’ specifications and current industry standards and will continue to support emerging standards that are complementary to our product strategy.

We believe that our competitive position will depend in large part on our ability to develop new and enhanced digital entertainment solutions and our ability to meet the evolving and rapidly changing needs of PC, peripherals and CE manufacturers and consumers. We expect to increase our total research and development expenses in the future to provide resources for enhancement of existing and development of new product lines.

As of December 31, 2004, we employed 221 research and development personnel in the aforementioned offices. For the year ended December 31, 2004, our research and development expenditures totaled $10.0 million. We intend to recruit, hire and retain highly qualified engineers and technicians to support our further research and development efforts. To improve the quality of our developer base and to lower our overall developer costs, we intend to increase the number of developers in Taiwan and Mainland China.

Our industry is intensely competitive, and we expect competition to intensify in the future. Our competitors include software companies that offer digital video or audio applications, companies offering hardware or semiconductor solutions as alternatives to our software products and operating system providers that may develop and integrate applications into their products.

Additional competitors are likely to enter our industry in the future. We also face competition from the internal research and development departments of other software companies and PC and CE manufacturers, including some of our current customers. Some of our customers have the capability to integrate their operations vertically by developing their own software-based digital and audio solutions or by acquiring our competitors or the rights to develop competitive products or technologies, which may allow these customers to reduce their purchases or cease purchasing from us completely. Operating system providers with an established customer base, such as Microsoft, already offer products in the digital video and audio software markets. Some video and audio capabilities are built directly into their operating systems or are offered as upgrades to those operating systems at no additional charge. If Microsoft or other operating system providers develop or license digital video and audio solutions that compete directly with ours and incorporate the solutions into their operating systems, our products could lose market share.

We expect our current competitors to introduce improved products at lower prices, and we will need to do the same to remain competitive. We may not be able to compete successfully against either current or future competitors with respect to new or improved products. We believe that competitive pressures may result in price reductions, reduced margins and our loss of market share.

Many of our current competitors and potential competitors have longer operating histories and significantly greater financial, technical, sales and marketing resources or greater name recognition than we do. As a result, these competitors are able to devote greater resources to the development, promotion, sale and support of their products. In addition, our competitors that have large market capitalizations or cash reserves are in a better position to acquire other companies in order to gain new technologies or products that may displace our products. Any of these potential acquisitions could give our competitors a strategic advantage. In addition, some of our current competitors and potential competitors have more extensive customer base, more developed distribution channels and broader product offerings, than we do. These companies can use their broader customer base and product offerings, or adopt aggressive pricing policies, to gain market share. Increased competition in the market may result in price reductions, decreased customer orders, reduced profit margins and loss of market share, any of which could harm our business.

Although we believe our products compete favorably with respect to each of these factors, the market for our products is rapidly evolving and we may not be able to maintain our competitive position against current and potential competitors, especially those with greater resources.

Our success depends upon our ability to protect our proprietary rights. We rely on a combination of patent, copyright, trademark and trade secret laws, as well as license and confidentiality agreements with our employees, customers, strategic partners and others, to establish and protect our proprietary rights. The protection of patentable inventions is important to our competitive position. We currently have or own the rights to 11 issued U.S. patents, 22 patents issued in Taiwan and 3 patents issued in China, and we have 90 pending patent applications in various jurisdictions, comprised of 35 U.S. patent applications and 55 foreign patent applications.

Existing patent, copyright, trademark and trade secret laws and license and confidentiality agreements afford only limited protection. In addition, the laws of some foreign countries do not protect our proprietary rights to the same extent as do the laws of the United States, and detecting and preventing the unauthorized use of our products is difficult. Any failure to adequately protect our proprietary rights could result in our competitors offering similar products, potentially resulting in the loss of revenue and some of our competitive advantage. Infringement claims and lawsuits to protect our proprietary rights would likely be expensive to resolve and would require management’s time and resources, and, therefore, could harm our business.

Our digital video and audio solutions comply with industry standard DVD specifications. Some third parties have claimed that various aspects of DVD technology incorporated into our and our customers’ products infringe upon patents held by them, including MPEG LA, a consortium formed to enforce the proprietary rights of certain holders of patents covering certain aspects of MPEG-2 technology and a consortium known as “DVD 6C,” formed by a separate group of companies to enforce the proprietary rights of certain holders of patents covering some aspects of DVD technology. In March 2002, we entered into a license agreement with MPEG LA pursuant to which we obtained a license, retroactive to our inception, to MPEG LA’s patents related to the MPEG-2 standard in exchange for a cash payment and our agreement to make ongoing royalty payments. This license requires that we pay a royalty to MPEG LA for our sales to end users and that we notify the OEMs to whom we sell our products that they are obligated to obtain a license from MPEG LA for any use of our products that comply with the MPEG-2 standard.

We may receive notices of claims of infringement of other parties’ proprietary rights, including Nissim, DVD 6C or 4C, another consortium formed to enforce the proprietary rights of certain holders of patents covering some aspects of DVD technology. Many companies aggressively use their patent portfolios to bring infringement claims against competitors and other parties. As a result, we may become a party to litigation in the future as a result of an alleged infringement of the intellectual property rights of others, including DVD 6C, 4C or Nissim. Similarly, other parties have alleged that aspects of MPEG-2 and other multimedia technologies infringe upon patents held by them. We may be required to pay license fees and damages or be prohibited from selling our products in the future if it is determined that our products infringe on patents owned by these third parties. In addition, other companies may form consortia in the future, similar to MPEG LA, DVD 6C and 4C, to enforce their proprietary rights and these consortia may seek to enforce their patent rights against us and our customers. If DVD 6C, 4C, Nissim or another third party proves that our technology infringes its patents, we may be required to pay substantial damages for past infringement and may be required to pay license fees or royalties on future sales of our products. If we are required to pay license fees in the amounts that are currently published by, for example, DVD 6C, for past sales to our large PC OEM customers, because such PC OEMs were not themselves licensed, such fees would exceed the revenue we have received from those PC OEM customers. In addition, if it were proven that we willfully infringed on a third party’s proprietary rights, we may be held liable for three times the amount of damages we would otherwise have to pay. In addition, intellectual property litigation may require us to stop selling our products, obtain a license from the owner of the infringed intellectual property or redesign our products.

We license technology from Dolby Laboratories for use in our DVD-related products. We pay a royalty to Dolby on a lump-sum and per-unit shipped basis. The technology is comprised of Dolby Pro Logic, Dolby Digital, Dolby Virtual Surround, MLP Lossless, Dolby Digital Audio System, Dolby Headphone System and other related technologies designed to create “theater quality” sound by routing audio signals from a DVD to different speakers in a multi-speaker setup. The Dolby Digital technology is part of the industry standard DVD specification.

We license encryption software technology from the DVD Copy Control Association, Inc. This technology is designed to provide protection for content encoded onto DVD discs. We pay DVD Copy Control Association, Inc. an annual license fee for this technology.

If any of the licenses for the technologies and software described above terminate and are not renewed on commercially reasonable terms, we could be prevented from shipping products using the MPEG-2 standards and our revenue could decline.

As of December 31, 2004, we employed 382 people, of whom 78 worked in the United States and 304 worked in our various international locations. Of the U.S. employees, 23 were in sales and marketing, 29 were in research and development and 26 were in general and administration. Of the international employees, 70 were in sales and marketing, 192 were in research and development and 42 were in general and administration.

We believe our existing facilities are well maintained, suitable for our operations and adequate to meet our current requirements.

No matters were submitted to a vote of security holders during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year covered by this report.

Our common stock is traded on the Nasdaq National Market under the symbol “IVII.” On March 15, 2005, there were 48 holders of record of our common stock. Because many of such shares are held by brokers and other institutions on behalf of stockholders, we are unable to estimate the total number of stockholders represented by these record holders. The following table sets forth the high and low sales price per share of our common stock, for the periods indicated.

We have not paid cash dividends on our common stock. The declaration of dividends, whether in cash or in-kind, is within the discretion of InterVideo’s Board of Directors.

Our Insider Trading Policy allows our directors, officers and other employees covered under the policy to establish, under limited circumstances contemplated by Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act of 1934, written trading plans that permit automatic trading of our common stock. On November 30, 2004, Randall Bambrough, our Chief Financial Officer, Honda Shing, our Chief Technology Officer and Raul Diaz, our Vice President of Sales, adopted Rule 10b5-1 trading plans that became effective on February 23, 2005. We believe that additional directors, officers and employees may establish such trading plans in the future.

Founded in 1998, InterVideo is a provider of DVD software, video editing and DVD burning software, television viewing and recording software and InstantOn software. We have developed a technology platform from which we have created a broad suite of integrated multimedia software products. These products span the digital video cycle by allowing users to capture, edit, author, distribute, burn and play digital video. We sell our products to PC OEMs, CE manufacturers and PC peripherals manufacturers worldwide. We have operations in the United States, Taiwan, Japan and China. We derive revenue primarily from the sale of software licenses to OEMs, which install our software onto PCs prior to delivery to customers. In addition, we derive revenue from the license of our software to CE manufacturers and manufacturers of PC peripherals that incorporate our software into their own products for distribution. We also sell our software through retail channels and directly to end users through our websites.

Historically, sales of our WinDVD product, a software DVD player for PCs, to PC OEMs have accounted for a majority of our revenue. We derived 71% of our revenue for the year ended December 31, 2004 from sales of our WinDVD product, primarily to PC OEMs, as compared to 82% and 89% of our revenue in the years ended December 31, 2003 and December 31, 2002, respectively. We expect that revenue from sales of our WinDVD product to PC OEMs will continue to account for a majority of our revenue. However, in the future, we expect to derive an increasing percentage of our revenue from sales of other products, including WinDVD Creator, InstantON, InterVideo Home Theater, InterVideo DVD Copy and Linux-based versions of our DVD and DVR software designed for Linux-based PCs and CE devices, and products sold through our retail and web-based sales channels.

Our software is generally bundled with products sold by PC OEMs. Our PC OEM customers include, among others, Dell, Fujitsu, Fujitsu Siemens, Hewlett-Packard, IBM, NEC and Toshiba. Due to a concentration in the PC OEM industry, we derive a substantial portion of our revenue from a small number of customers. For the year ended December 31, 2004, our two largest customers accounted for 38% of our revenue, with Hewlett-Packard

accounting for 25% of our revenue and Toshiba accounting for 13% of our revenue. We expect that the revenue from Dell, which accounted for 7% and 13% of our revenue during the twelve months ended December 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively, may decrease to $0 in future periods because we understand that our current portion of their business is moving to one of our competitors. We expect that a small number of customers will continue to account for a majority of our revenue and gross profit for the foreseeable future, although the identity of those customers may change from period to period. Because there is only a limited number of potential new, large PC OEM customers for our WinDVD product, we must derive any future revenue growth principally from increased unit sales of WinDVD or other products to existing PC OEMs, CE manufacturers, PC peripherals manufacturers, smaller PC OEMs and to consumers through retail channels and our websites. Because some of these other revenue opportunities are more fragmented than the PC OEM market and will require more time and effort to penetrate, our revenue may decline or grow at a slower rate than in prior periods.

Historically, prices for our products have declined because of competition from other software providers, competition in the PC industry and diminishing margins experienced by PC OEMs as a result of decreased selling prices and periodic declines in unit sales. Accordingly, we have reduced the prices we charge PC OEMs for our WinDVD, WinDVD Creator and other products, and expect such price reductions will continue in the future. As a matter of policy, we evaluate such price reductions on a continual basis and, in certain circumstances, may determine it would not be in the best interests of the Company to reduce prices below a certain level. We may decide not to lower our product prices, even if a loss of revenue would result. As a result of declining prices, it may be more difficult for us to increase or maintain our revenue levels and price declines may cause a decline in our gross profits even if our WinDVD and other product unit sales increase.

We have an Internet commerce sales initiative that allows users to purchase products from our websites. We also continue to expand our retail channels. For the year ended December 31, 2004, we derived 15% of our revenue from web and retail sales as compared to 16% of revenue for the prior year. To increase our web and retail sales in the future, we intend to increase investments in associated selling and marketing programs. The gross profits associated with our products sold through our websites are generally higher than those associated with our OEM sales. Accordingly, fluctuations in our web and retail revenue as a percentage of total revenue will impact our gross profits.

We derive and expect to continue to derive a significant portion of our revenue from sales outside of the United States. Sales outside of the United States accounted for 47% of our revenue for the year ended December 31, 2004, as compared to 44% for the prior year. Currently, most of our international sales are denominated in U.S. dollars. Therefore, a strengthening dollar could make our products less competitive in foreign markets. Our current distribution agreements shift foreign exchange risk to our foreign distributors. In the future, an increasing portion of our international revenue may be denominated in foreign currencies and we may use derivative instruments to hedge foreign exchange risk.

Our financial condition and results of operations are likely to be affected by seasonality in the future. Historically, PC OEMs have experienced their highest volume of sales during the year-end holiday season. Because we generally recognize revenue associated with the sale of our products to our OEMs’ customers in the month or quarter following the sales of our products to these OEMs’ customers, we expect this seasonality to have a positive effect on our revenue and operating income in the first quarter of each calendar year and a negative effect on our revenue and operating income in the second quarter of that year.

During the year ended December 31, 2004 and continuing through the first quarter of 2005 we purchased shares of stock in Ulead Systems, Inc. (“Ulead”), a publicly traded company in Taiwan that is a leading developer of innovative video, imaging and DVD authoring software, accumulating a total shareholding

percentage at 18.5 percent as of March 31, 2005. On March 14, 2005, we and our wholly-owned subsidiary, InterVideo Digital Technology Corp. announced the commencement of a tender offer to purchase an additional 30.1 to 65 percent of the issued shares of Ulead at 30 NTD (US$0.98) per share of Ulead common stock. Our obligation to purchase the shares is subject to certain closing conditions, including the requirement that there have not been any material adverse change in the financial condition or business of Ulead. The tender offer is scheduled to expire on April 13, 2005. Upon the successful completion of the tender offer, the transaction will be valued at between US$23 and US$49 million, and we will own between 50.1 and 85 percent of the outstanding shares of Ulead. These figures include the 18.5 percent of Ulead’s outstanding shares currently owned by us, the shares to be purchased in the tender offer and an additional 1.5% of Ulead’s shares to be purchased outside of the tender offer.

Upon the successful completion of the tender offer, we will commence reporting our financial results and those of Ulead on a consolidated basis. For its 2004 fiscal year, Ulead reported revenue of NTD 1,352,886,000 (US$40 million), operating income of NTD 49,928,000 (US$1.5 million) and a net loss of NTD 84,731,000 (US$2.5 million). Ulead does not provide public guidance with respect to its anticipated financial results. However, we anticipate that our financial consolidation with Ulead will increase substantially the consolidated company’s revenue, cost of revenue and operating expenses. The quantitative impact on our financial results cannot be determined at this time due to the uncertainties inherent in the two companies’ future financial results, uncertainties regarding the amount of synergies and efficiencies that would be garnered as a result of the consolidation and uncertainties regarding the reconciliation of Ulead’s financial results from Taiwan GAAP to U.S. GAAP, among other factors. Nonetheless, we believe that the consolidation will be accretive to our net income for the current fiscal year. There can be no assurance, however, that the transaction will be accretive, that any synergies will be achieved, that the transaction will be consummated at all or that other negative factors will not arise from the attempted or completed tender offer. Please see “Risk Factors—We may not be successful in addressing problems encountered in connection with our proposed transaction with Ulead or any other acquisitions we may undertake, which could disrupt our operations or otherwise harm our business.

We base the discussions and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations upon our consolidated financial statements, which we prepare in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles. In preparing these financial statements, we must make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates based on historical experiences and various other assumptions we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. Our actual results may differ from these estimates.

The accounting policies that most frequently require us to make estimates and judgments, and therefore are critical to understanding the results of our operations are:

Our revenue is primarily derived from fees received under software licenses granted to PC OEMs, CE manufacturers, PC peripherals manufacturers, retail distributors, retail customers and directly to end users or businesses. We record revenue generated from these sales in accordance with SOP 97-2, “Software Revenue Recognition,” as amended, under which revenue is recognized when:

Typically, under the terms of our license agreements with our OEM customers, they are entitled only to unspecified upgrades on a when and if available basis, prior to sale into the OEM’s sales channel partners or sell through to the OEM’s end customers. Under the terms of our revenue recognition policy, we recognize revenue based on evidence of products sold by the OEMs to end customers or to the OEM’s sales channel partners. We do not typically provide upgrades or post contract support (“PCS”) to the OEMs’ customers or sales channel partners. Accordingly, under such agreements we do not defer any revenue, as we no longer have an obligation once an OEM’s products have been shipped from the OEM to the OEM’s sales channel partners or to an OEM’s end customer. Under certain other agreements, we defer the recognition of OEM revenue due to ongoing obligations in association with upgrade rights to end users or significant PCS provided to the OEMs’ customers. Depending on the specific contractual obligation, we recognize this revenue over a period of the shorter of the contractual obligation period or the estimated life of the product. In general, we consider the estimated life of our products to be three years.

Typically, our OEM customers do not have the right to claim a credit or refund for returns from the OEM’s sales channel partners or end customers back to the OEM. However, in the few instances where we have granted our OEM customers with the right to claim a refund or credit for these types of returns, we defer 100% of the revenue until we are able to establish a returns reserve based on historical returns activity that is specific to the respective sales channel, product line or country. We have determined that the return percentage for the WinDVD product line for our OEM sales channel for sales made in the United States has been less than 0.1% of sales. As a result, we have not deferred WinDVD sales to OEM customers in the United States that have been granted a right of return. If in the future, the actual or estimated number of returned units materially increases as a percentage of sales, we may be required to establish a returns reserve for these sales.

Under the terms of the OEM license agreements, each OEM qualifies our software on their hardware and software configurations. Once our software has been qualified, the OEM begins shipping products and reports net sales to us, at which point we record revenue. Most OEMs pay a license fee based on the number of copies of licensed software included in the products sold to their customers. These OEMs pay fees on a per-unit basis, and we record associated revenue when we receive notification of the OEMs’ sales of the licensed software to an end customer or sales channel partner. The terms of the license agreements generally require the OEMs to notify us of sales of our products within 30 to 45 days after the end of the month or quarter in which the sales occur. As a result, we generally recognize revenue in the month or quarter following the sales of the software to these OEMs’ customers.

A small number of OEMs that sell PC components, place orders with us for a fixed quantity of units at a fixed price based on an agreed-upon purchase order or contract. In such cases, qualification of our software is not required, and these OEMs have no rights to upgrades or returns. We generally recognize revenue upon the completion of shipment, in accordance with the terms of the respective agreement, to these OEMs.

with rights to PCS to be provided by us to the OEM’s end customers. This PCS may or may not include the right to unspecified future software upgrades. However, PCS is typically not available to the OEMs’ end users. We have established vendor specific objective evidence (“VSOE”) of fair value for PCS for end customer support on a limited number of products sold to OEMs in Japan. On these arrangements, we use the residual method to account for the allocation between the license revenue and the service revenue. The allocated license revenue is recognized in full upon the OEM’s sale of the licensed product to the OEM’s sales channel partners and, where the only undelivered element of the agreement is PCS, the allocated PCS is recognized over the period of the PCS obligation. In all other agreements where we have sold PCS in which we have not been able to establish a VSOE of fair value for PCS or where there are additional undelivered elements, such as NRE service fees, we defer all of the revenue until the additional undelivered elements are accepted and the only undelivered element is PCS. Once the only undelivered element is PCS, we recognize the entire arrangement fee over the PCS period.

End-user sales are made directly through our websites. We do not offer specified upgrade rights to any class of customer, and there are no unspecified upgrade rights associated with end-user sales. We recognize revenue from sales through our websites upon delivery of product and the receipt of payment by means of an authorized credit card. End users who purchase our software from our websites have limited rights of return for products they have purchased in the previous 14 days, which we currently reserve for using a 30-day sales return reserve based upon historical return percentages.

We sell our products to retailers and distributors either on a consignment or non-consignment basis. For consignment product shipments, in general, the distributor will not take ownership of the product at the point in time when we ship product to the distributor. Once the distributor sells the consignment-based product to a retailer or an end customer and ownership is transferred from us to the retailer or end customer, the distributor will report those sales to us and we invoice the distributor. For non-consignment product shipments, the distributor will take ownership of the product at the point in time when we ship the product to the distributor and we invoice the distributor upon such shipment. Since we do not have contractually obligated minimum orders or payment terms with our distributors, we do not recognize revenue for retail product distribution prior to invoicing. Certain distributors and retailers, primarily in Japan, have limited rights to return products that were purchased in the previous six months. These distributors have no rights to product upgrades. We generally recognize revenue, net of contractually obligated return rights and any additional required rebate or pricing reserves, upon completion of shipment to these distributors and retailers. Other distributors and retailers, primarily in the United States and Europe, have unlimited rights of return. We generally recognize revenue upon receipt of evidence that the distributors and retailers have sold our products through to end users, less any required rebate or pricing reserves.

We have begun selling licenses of our products to corporations and other businesses in the United States. This corporate licensing program is generally conducted either directly between InterVideo and the licensee or through a reseller. For these sales we do not provide the corporation a right to return the product once it has been delivered and we do not provide support or upgrade rights to that licensee. We currently recognize revenue for these sales upon confirmation of delivery of the product.

Certain customer agreements call for the payment by us of marketing development funds, co-operative advertising fees, rebates or similar charges. We account for such fees in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 99-19 as a reduction in revenue unless there is an identifiable benefit and the fair value of the charges can be reasonably estimated in which case we record these transactions as marketing expense. Commissions paid to third-party sales representatives are included in sales and marketing expenses.

In preparing our consolidated financial statements, we assess the likelihood that our deferred tax assets will be realized from future taxable income. We establish a valuation allowance if we determine that it is more likely

than not that some portion or all of the net deferred tax assets will not be realized. Changes in the valuation allowance are included in our consolidated statements of income as provision for income taxes. We exercise significant judgment in determining our provision for income taxes, our deferred tax assets and liabilities and our future taxable income for purposes of assessing our ability to utilize any future tax benefits from our deferred tax assets. If actual circumstances differ from our expectations, we may be required to adjust our estimates in future periods and our financial position, cash flows and results of operations could be materially affected.

Revenue: Revenue is primarily derived from fees paid under software licenses granted to PC OEMs, CE manufacturers, PC peripherals manufacturers, retail distributors, retail customers and directly to end users or businesses.

Cost of Revenue: Cost of revenue consists primarily of license royalties, expenses incurred to manufacture, package and distribute our software products, the amortization of developed technology, costs associated with end-user PCS and the cost of settlement of intellectual property matters. License royalties consist of royalties paid or accrued for payment to third parties for technologies incorporated into our products. In general, the amount of royalties depends on the number of our product units sold and the royalty rates associated with the third-party technology incorporated into those products. We sometimes prepay for the right to bundle and distribute certain licensed technologies. In general, these prepayments are at a flat rate and are not determined by the number of units of the bundled product that are shipped. In general, the license rights are granted for one year and the estimated useful life of the technology is three years. End-user PCS costs include the costs associated with providing assistance to end users of our products. With the exception of packaging and distribution costs, the cost of revenue is generally the same for each product, regardless of sales channel. Certain product costs associated with sales to distributors, retailers and end users are deferred until the corresponding revenue has been recognized. Cost of settlement of intellectual property matters consists of amounts that we have agreed to pay to third parties in settlement of alleged infringement of certain patented technology used in our customers’ products and accruals for royalties related to our usage of technologies under patent where no agreement exists.

Gross Profit: Gross profit is affected by competitive price pressures, fluctuations in unit volumes, changes in royalty amounts and changes in the mix of products sold and in our mix of distribution channels. Differences in gross profits by sales channel are primarily a reflection of product pricing differences, which can be impacted by distribution and marketing rebates, associated with each sales channel. In addition, our gross profit may be affected by costs associated with the settlement of intellectual property matters.

Research and development expenses: Research and development expenses consist primarily of personnel and related costs, consulting expenses associated with the development of new products, technology license fees, professional fees and product evaluation and testing costs.

Sales and marketing expenses: Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of personnel and related costs, including salaries and commissions, travel expenses, commissions paid to third party sales representatives and costs associated with trade shows, advertising and other marketing efforts.

General and administrative expenses: General and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel and related costs, support costs for finance, human resources, legal, operations, information systems and administration departments and professional fees.

Stock-based compensation expenses: Deferred stock-based compensation is recorded when options are granted with exercise prices less than the fair market value of the underlying common stock. Stock-based compensation expenses are recognized as deferred stock-based compensation is amortized on an accelerated basis over the vesting period of the related options, which is generally four years.

Other income, net: Other income, net consists primarily of interest earned on our cash and cash equivalent balances, offset by other expenses.

Revenue increased 30% to $74.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2004 from $57.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2003. OEM product sales increased 31% to $62.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2004 from $48.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2003. Web and retail sales increased 29% to $11.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2004 from $8.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2003. OEM product sales accounted for 85% of total revenue for the year ended December 31, 2004 as compared to 84% of total revenue for the year ended December 31, 2003. We derived a substantial portion of our revenue from a small number of customers. For the year ended December 31, 2004, our two largest customers accounted for 38% of our revenue, with Hewlett-Packard accounting for 25% and Toshiba accounting for 13% of our revenue. In the year ended December 31, 2003, our two largest customers accounted for 32% of our revenue with Hewlett-Packard accounting for 19% and Dell accounting for 13% of our revenue. Sales outside the United States accounted for 47% of our revenue for the year ended December 31, 2004 as compared to 44% for the year ended December 31, 2003. The growth in revenue for the year ended December 31, 2004 over the same period in the prior year reflects increased revenue from our WinDVD product sales of 12%. Additionally, increased sales of our non-WinDVD products which includes WinDVD Creator, InterVideo Home Theater and InterVideo DVD Copy accounted for 29% of revenue for the year ended December 31, 2004, as compared to 18% for the year ended December 31, 2003.

Cost of revenue increased 38% to $32.9 million, or 44% of revenue, for the year ended December 31, 2004 from $23.8 million, or 42% of revenue, for the year ended December 31, 2003. The increase in absolute dollars was primarily due to increased unit sales and an increase in the per unit cost of licensed royalties paid to Dolby Laboratories. Royalties paid to Dolby Laboratories increased $6.4M, or 29%, in the year ended December 31, 2004 over the year ended December 31, 2003. The increase as a percentage of revenue was primarily due to a credit of $1.1 million taken during the year ended December 31, 2003 representing the reversal of a previous accrual for unlicensed royalties no longer deemed probable. Cost of revenue in absolute dollars will continue to be impacted by per-unit costs of royalties. We expect that cost of revenue as a percentage of revenue will be impacted by the introduction of our newer, higher margin products offset by continued price erosion in our WinDVD sales to our OEM customers.

Gross profits were 56% of revenue for the year ended December 31, 2004 as compared to 58% for the year ended December 31, 2003. The decrease was primarily due to a credit of $1.1 million taken during the year ended December 31, 2003 representing the reversal of a previous accrual for unlicensed royalties no longer deemed probable. Gross profits were also impacted by lower average selling prices of our WinDVD, WinDVD Creator and other products to our major OEM customers without a proportional decrease in third party royalties and an increase in per unit pricing of third party royalties paid to Dolby Laboratories. These factors were offset by shifts in our sales mix volumes to higher margin products such as WinDVD Creator. We expect that gross profits will be impacted by the introduction of our newer, higher margin products offset by continued price erosion in our WinDVD sales to our OEM customers and higher per-unit costs.

Research and development expenses were $10.0 million, or 14% of revenue, for the year ended December 31, 2004 and $7.6 million, or 13% of revenue, for the year ended December 31, 2003. The increase in absolute dollars was primarily attributable to a $1.4 million increase in payroll and payroll related expenses due to increased research and development headcount at our international locations, a $330,000 increase in depreciation expense due to increased capital expenditures, a $190,000 increase in legal and outside consulting fees, a $190,000 increase in travel and entertainment expenses and a $280,000 increase in facilities charges and other general operating expenses. Research and development headcount grew to 221 during the year ended December 31, 2004, an increase of 64% as compared to 135 at December 31, 2003. This growth required us to increase our facilities in Taiwan and China. We believe that a significant level of research and development expenses will be

required to remain competitive, and, as a result, we expect these expenses to increase in absolute dollars and that such expenses may increase as a percentage of revenue in the future.

Sales and marketing expenses increased to $10.2 million, or 14% of revenue, for the year ended December 31, 2004 from $8.9 million, or 16% of revenue, for the year ended December 31, 2003. The increase in absolute dollars was primarily attributable to a $440,000 increase in payroll and payroll related expenses due to increased sales and marketing headcount, a $450,000 increase in outside consulting fees and commissions to outside sales representatives, a $180,000 increase in travel, promotional and tradeshow expenses and a $250,000 increase in depreciation and facilities related expenses. The decrease, as a percentage of revenue, for the year ended December 31, 2004 as compared to the prior year was primarily due to the overall increase in revenue without a proportional increase in sales and marketing expenses. We intend to actively market, sell and promote our products and take actions to further develop our brand name and retail presence. Therefore, we expect sales and marketing expenses to increase in absolute dollars and that such expenses may increase as a percentage of revenue in the future as we seek to further establish our retail presence.

General and administrative expenses increased to $9.1 million or 12% of revenue, for the year ended December 31, 2004 from $4.4 million, or 8% of revenue, for the year ended December 31, 2003. This increase in absolute dollars and as a percentage of revenue was primarily due to a $650,000 increase in payroll and payroll related expenses due to increased general and administrative headcount, a $2.4 million increase in outside consulting and audit fees due to Sarbanes-Oxley compliance efforts, a $320,000 increase in legal fees, a $110,000 increase in travel and entertainment expenses, a $520,000 increase in investor relations expenses, directors and officers insurance premiums, board of directors fees and other expenses associated with being a publicly traded entity for a full year and a $120,000 increase in general operating expenses, offset by a $175,000 decrease in losses on the disposal of fixed assets. Additionally, during the year-ended December 31, 2004, we incurred $780,000 in legal and administrative expenses associated with the pursuit of strategic transactions. We expect general and administrative expenses to remain relatively flat as a percentage of revenue but to increase in absolute dollars in the future as we build our infrastructure to support our anticipated growth and operations as a public company.

Stock-based compensation expenses decreased to $271,000 for the year ended December 31, 2004 compared with $912,000 for the year ended December 31, 2003.

On December 16, 2004, the FASB issued Statement No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share Based Payments” (“SFAS No. 123R”), which is a revision of SFAS No. 123 and supersedes APB No. 25 and will require us to calculate and record in the income statement the cost of equity instruments, such as stock options awarded to employees for services received which we have previously disclosed as pro forma information in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements. The cost of the equity instruments is to be measured based on the fair value of the instruments on the date they are granted (with certain exceptions) and is required to be recognized over the period during which the employees are required to provide services in exchange for the equity instruments. The statement will be effective in our third quarter of the year ending December 31, 2005. The impact of adopting SFAS No. 123R cannot be accurately estimated at this time, as it will depend on the market value and the amount of share based awards granted in future periods but it is expected that the impact will increase our stock-based compensation expenses once it has been adopted.

Other income, net increased to $910,000 for the year ended December 31, 2004 from $563,000 for the year ended December 31, 2003. This increase is primarily due a full year of interest earned on the cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments generated from our initial public offering in July 2003 and income from operations.

We recorded a provision for income taxes for the period ended December 31, 2004 of $4.1 million on income before income taxes of $12.9 million, compared to a provision for income taxes of $4.2 million on income before income taxes of $12.0 million for the period ended December 31, 2003. Our 2004 income tax expense differs from the expected provision derived by applying the applicable U.S. federal statutory rate to the income from operations primarily due to the benefit from a release of remaining valuation allowance on certain deferred tax assets provided in prior years, previous un-benefited stock option compensation, current year research and experimental credits and export sales activities, offset by state income tax expenses, foreign income taxes net of foreign tax credits and foreign losses with no benefit. Our 2003 income tax expense was the same as the expected provision derived by applying the applicable U.S. federal statutory rate to the income from operations after taking into consideration non-deductible amortization of deferred compensation and state income tax expenses, offset by benefits from research and experimental credits, export sales activities and other credits. We expect our effective tax rate for 2005 to approximate 38% to 40% of our income before income taxes. See Note 5 in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Revenue increased 25% to $57.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2003 from $45.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2002. OEM product sales increased 24% to $48.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2003 from $38.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2002. Web and retail sales increased 33% to $8.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2003 from $6.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2002. OEM product sales accounted for 84% of total revenue for the year ended December 31, 2003 as compared to 85% of total revenue for the year ended December 31, 2002. We derived a substantial portion of our revenue from a small number of customers. For the year ended December 31, 2003, our two largest customers accounted for 32% of our revenue, with Hewlett-Packard accounting for 19% and Dell accounting for 13% of our revenue during that period. In the year ended December 31, 2002 these same two customers accounted for 31% of our revenue with Hewlett-Packard accounting for 17% and Dell accounting for 14% of our revenue during that period. Sales outside the United States accounted for 44% of our revenue for the year ended December 31, 2003 as compared to 50% for the year ended December 31, 2002. The growth in revenue for the year ended December 31, 2003 over the same period in the prior year reflects increased revenue from our WinDVD product sales of 16%. Additionally, increased sales of our non-WinDVD products which includes WinDVD Creator, InterVideo Home Theater and InterVideo DVD Copy accounted for 18% of revenue for the year ended December 31, 2003, as compared to 11% for the year ended December 31, 2002.

Cost of revenue increased to $23.8 million, or 42% of revenue, for the year ended December 31, 2003 from $16.9 million, or 37% of revenue, for the year ended December 31, 2002. The increase in absolute dollars was primarily due to increased unit sales. The increase as a percentage of revenue was primarily due to the aforementioned decline in selling prices of our WinDVD products without a proportional decrease in third-party royalties as well as the inclusion of royalty costs associated with certain OEM revenues that have been deferred. Also included in the cost of revenue for the year ended December 31, 2003 is a credit of $1.1 million taken in the third quarter representing the reversal of a previous accrual for unlicensed royalties no longer deemed probable.

Gross profits were 58% of revenue for the year ended December 31, 2003 as compared to 63% for the year ended December 31, 2002. The decrease reflects lower average selling prices of our WinDVD products to our major OEM customers without a proportional decrease in third party royalties. Gross profits were also negatively impacted by the inclusion of royalty costs associated with certain OEM revenues that have been deferred, offset

by a credit of $1.1 million representing the reversal of a previous accrual for unlicensed royalties no longer deemed probable.

Research and development expenses were $7.6 million, or 13% of revenue, for the year ended December 31, 2003 and $7.2 million, or 16% of revenue, for the year ended December 31, 2002. The increase in absolute dollars was primarily attributable to a $293,000 increase in payroll and payroll related expenses due to increased research and development headcount and a $95,000 increase in legal and outside consulting fees. The decrease, as a percentage of revenue, for the year ended December 31, 2003 as compared to the corresponding period of the prior year was primarily due to the overall increase in revenue without a proportional increase in research and development expenses. This is primarily attributable to a shift in personnel resources to overseas locations with lower cost structures.

Sales and marketing expenses increased to $8.9 million, or 16% of revenue, for the year ended December 31, 2003 from $8.2 million, or 18% of revenue, for the year ended December 31, 2002. The increase in absolute dollars was primarily attributable to a $750,000 increase in payroll and payroll related expenses due to increased sales and marketing headcount, a $680,000 increase in travel, promotional and tradeshow expenses and a $155,000 increase in postage and communication expenses. These increased expenses were partially offset by a decrease in commissions paid to outside sales representatives of $934,000, mainly in Japan. The decrease, as a percentage of revenue, for both the year ended December 31, 2003 as compared to the prior year was primarily due to the overall increase in revenue without a proportional increase in sales and marketing expenses.

General and administrative expenses increased to $4.4 million or 8% of revenue, for the year ended December 31, 2003 from $3.9 million, or 8% of revenue, for the year ended December 31, 2002. This increase in absolute dollars was primarily due to an increase in directors’ and officers’ liability insurance premiums of $250,000, an increase in payroll and payroll related expenses of $300,000 and an increase in local taxes of

$106,000, which was largely due to the increase in shares authorized as a result of our initial public offering in July 2003. These increases were offset by a decrease in outside consulting, legal and accounting service fees of $284,000.

Stock-based compensation expenses decreased to $912,000 for the year ended December 31, 2003 compared with $2.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2002 due to the effects of accelerated amortization and forfeitures.

Other income, net increased to $563,000 for the year ended December 31, 2003 from $167,000 for the year ended December 31, 2002. This increase is primarily due to the interest earned on the additional cash generated from our initial public offering in July 2003.

We recorded a provision for income taxes of $4.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2003 as compared to an income tax benefit of $2.4 million for year ended December 31, 2002. The income tax benefit for the year ended December 31, 2002 was the result of the release of a significant portion of our valuation allowance. Such release of valuation allowance was due to our reassessment of the realizability of certain of our deferred tax assets as being more likely than not. Our effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2003 was 35%. See Note 5 in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

As of December 31, 2004, we had cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments of $74.6 million representing 73% of our total assets, compared to $69.7 million or 79% of total assets, as of December 31, 2003. Our cash and cash equivalents are highly liquid investments with an original maturity of 90 days or less at the

date of purchase and totaled $27.4 million at December 31, 2004 and $46.9 million at December 31, 2003. Short-term investments consist principally of US treasury notes, state and municipal notes/bonds and corporate bonds.

Net cash provided by operating activities in 2004 was $14.5 million, primarily comprised of $8.8 million of net income adjusted for non-cash charges for depreciation and amortization of $1.3 million, deferred taxes of $526,000, tax benefits derived from stock option activity of $1.2 million, stock-based compensation of $271,000 and other non-cash charges and credits, a net increase in accounts payable, accrued liabilities and taxes payable of $2.4 million and an increase in deferred revenue of $547,000, offset by increases in accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other assets of $624.000. The non-cash adjustment for tax benefits derived from stock option activity results primarily from disqualified disposition of incentive stock option and non-qualified stock option exercises. The non-cash adjustment for stock-based compensation expense reflects the amortization of deferred stock-based compensation resulting for the granting of stock options with exercise prices less than the deemed fair market value of the underlying common stock. Beginning in the third quarter of 2005, when we are required to adopt the aforementioned SFAS No. 123R, we expect our stock-based compensation expense will increase but the actual impact of adopting SFAS No. 123R cannot be accurately estimated at this time, as it will depend on the market value and the amount of share based awards granted in future periods. The net increase in accounts payable, accrued liabilities and taxes payable is primarily due to increases in accrued license royalties of $1.4 million as a result of increased unit shipments as well as an increase in the per unit cost of these royalties, increases in accrued payroll and bonuses of $1.1 million due to increased headcount and increases in accruals for outside consulting and external audit fees of $600,000 largely due to Sarbanes-Oxley 404 efforts offset by a $1.2 million decrease in taxes payable due to the lower effective tax rate. The increase in deferred revenue is primarily due to growth in retail sales in North America and Europe for which revenue with certain customers has been deferred until evidence of sell-through to the end user is obtained. These increases were partially offset by the recognition of previously deferred revenue as a result of changes in certain contractual arrangements.

Net cash provided by operating activities in 2003 was $9.3 million, primarily comprised of $7.8 million of net income adjusted for non-cash charges for depreciation and amortization of $774,000, stock-based compensation of $912,000, loss on disposal of property and equipment of $205,000, and other non-cash charges and credits and increases in accounts payable of $595,000 and deferred revenue, accrued liabilities and taxes payable of $2.6 million, offset by increases in accounts receivable of $1.6 million and prepaid expenses and other current assets of $1.8 million. The non-cash adjustment for stock-based compensation expense reflects the amortization of deferred stock-based compensation resulting for the granting of options with exercise prices less than the deemed fair market value of the underlying common stock. The loss on disposal of property is largely a result of the relocation of our corporate headquarters and the resultant write-off of assets not fully depreciated at the time of the move. The increase in deferred revenue is partially due to growth in retail sales in North America and Europe for which revenue with certain customers has been deferred until evidence of sell-through to the end user is obtained. Additionally, the deferral of revenue associated with implied future obligations on certain contracts with our OEM customers contributed to the increase in deferred revenue during the period. Included in the change in accrued liabilities is the reversal of an unlicensed royalty accrual of $1.1 million as a result of the determination that the potential liability related to a previously established accrual is no longer deemed probable as well as payments of $1.0 million on intellectual property claim settlements during the year. These amounts were offset by an increase in accrued license fees due to increased unit shipments of our products.

Net cash used in investing activities was $33.3 million in 2004, which included the purchase of property and equipment of $1.4 million including the implementation of our new ERP system and expanded operations in Asia and net purchases of short-term investments of $24.5 million. Additionally, we invested $1.7 million in two private companies in Taiwan and invested $5.7 million for the acquisition of shares of common stock of Ulead Systems, Inc. (“Ulead”), a publicly traded company in Taiwan.

Net cash used in investing activities was $20.2 million in 2003, which included the purchase of property and equipment of $1.4 million and net purchases of short-term investments of $18.8 million.

Net cash used in financing activities in 2004 was $727,000, consisting of $2.6 million used for the repurchase of common stock offset by $1.8 million in proceeds from the issuance of common stock under stock option and employee stock purchase plans.

Net cash provided by financing activities in 2003 was $40.6 million, consisting of net proceeds from our initial public offering in July 2003 of $40.4 million and $199,000 due to the issuance of common stock upon the exercise of stock options.

We currently have no significant commitments for capital expenditures but we expect to spend approximately $1 million to $2 million on capital expenditures in 2005, which will include the world-wide roll-out of our ERP system. We anticipate that we will increase our capital expenditures consistent with our anticipated growth in personnel and infrastructure, including facilities and systems. As of December 31, 2004 we had future lease commitments for buildings of a total of $3.4 million under non-cancelable operating leases through 2010. We have no debt obligations.

On March 14, 2005, we announced the commencement of a tender offer to purchase an additional 30.1 to 65 percent of the issued shares of Ulead at NTD 30 (US$0.98) per share of Ulead common stock. Our obligation to purchase the shares is subject to certain closing conditions, including the requirement that there have not been any material adverse change in the financial condition or business of Ulead prior to the expiration of the tender offer on April 13, 2005. Upon the successful completion of the tender offer, the transaction will be valued at between US$23 and US$49 million, and we will own between 50.1 and 85 percent of the outstanding shares of Ulead. These figures include the 18.5 percent of Ulead’s outstanding shares currently owned by us, the shares to be purchased in the tender offer and an additional 1.5% of Ulead’s shares to be purchased outside of the tender offer.

We believe that our current cash, cash equivalent and short-term investments will be sufficient to meet our current working capital and capital expenditure requirements for at least the next twelve months. The successful completion of the tender offer would utilize between $23 and $49 million of our working capital. Furthermore, potential investment in Ulead is likely to increase our capital requirements in 2005 although the amount of such increase is not currently known. To the extent our existing sources of cash and cash flows from operations are not sufficient to fund our activities, we will need to raise additional funds. If we issue additional stock to raise capital, your percentage ownership in us will be reduced. If we raise funds through debt financing, we will have to pay interest and may be subject to restrictive covenants, which could limit our ability to take advantage of future opportunities or respond to competitive pressures or unanticipated industry changes. Additional financing may not be available when needed and, even if such financing is available, it may not be available on terms acceptable to us. We do not anticipate a need for raising funds by equity or debt financing in the year 2005.

We lease certain of our facilities under non-cancelable operating leases, which expire at various dates through 2010. Some of these facility lease agreements generally provide base rental rates which increase at various times during the terms of the leases and also provide for renewal options at fair market rental value. We are also responsible for common area maintenance charges on certain office leases, which are generally less than 10% of base rents and, as such are not included in the information presented below. Total operating lease expense, including month-to-month rentals, was approximately $745,000, $924,000 and $802,000 for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

We generally make purchases under cancelable purchase orders and do not enter into long term supply agreements.

As of December 31, 2004, future minimum commitments under operating leases are as follows (in thousands) and we do not have further material contractual obligations:

We have no contractual obligations or commercial commitments that are not already accrued for in our financial statements.

We are subject to a number of risks. Some of these risks are endemic to the DVD software industry. The fact that certain risks are endemic to the industry does not lessen the significance of these risks. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones facing us. Additional risks and uncertainties that we are unaware of, or that we may currently deem immaterial, may become important factors that harm our business. If any of the following risks actually occurs, our business could be harmed. In that case, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment. You should carefully consider each of the Risk Factors and the other information in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The rapidly evolving nature of our industry makes it difficult to forecast our future results.

The market for our products is characterized by rapid changes in technology. Demand for our products depends on our ability to maintain competitive pricing and to provide new or improved products that keep up with changes in technology. Any evaluation of our business and prospects must be made in light of the risks and difficulties encountered by companies offering products or services in new and rapidly evolving markets. The market for software-based digital video and audio solutions for incorporation in products in the PC and consumer electronics industries is rapidly evolving, and it is difficult to forecast the future growth rate, if any, or size of the market for our products. We may not accurately forecast customer behavior and recognize or respond to emerging trends, changing preferences or competitive factors facing us, and, therefore, we may fail to make accurate financial forecasts. Our current and future expense levels are based largely on our investment plans and estimates of future revenue and are, to a large extent, fixed. As a result, we may be unable to adjust our spending in a timely manner to compensate for any unexpected revenue shortfall, which would harm our operating results.

We expect our operating results to fluctuate on an annual and quarterly basis, which may result in volatility of our stock price.

We expect our operating results to fluctuate on an annual and quarterly basis, which may cause our stock price to be volatile. Important factors, many of which are outside our control, that could cause our operating results to fluctuate include:

Due to these and other factors, period-to-period comparisons of our operating results may not be meaningful, and you should not rely on our results for any one period as an indication of our future performance. In addition, our future operating results may fall below the expectations of public market analysts or investors. In this event, our stock price could decline significantly.

Changes in our product and service offerings could cause us to defer the recognition of revenue, which could harm our operating results and adversely impact our ability to forecast revenue.

We have created, and intend to continue to create, new software and software bundles such as WinDVD Creator, InterVideo Home Theater, InterVideo DVD Copy and InstantOn. These products contain advanced features and functionality that have required and may continue to require us to provide an increased level of end-user support. In the future, as these new products become more complex, we may also be obligated to provide additional support to our OEM customers to bundle our software with their products. These potential increases in OEM and end-user support obligations could require us to defer both license and PCS revenues to future periods, which could harm our operating results and adversely impact our ability to accurately forecast revenue.

We expect our product prices to continue to decline, which could harm our operating results.

We expect prices for our products to continue to decline over the next few years. Because of competition from other software providers, competition in the PC industry and diminishing margins experienced by PC OEMs as a result of decreased selling prices and lower unit sales, we have reduced the prices we charge PC OEMs for our WinDVD, WinDVD Creater and other products. We expect this trend to continue, which will make it more difficult to increase or maintain our revenue and may cause a decline in our gross profits, even if unit sales of any particular product increase. If unit sale increases do not offset anticipated price declines, our

revenue will decline. Accordingly, our future success will depend in part on our ability to increase sales of our higher-margin products and to introduce and sell new products and upgrades to our existing products, which could increase our revenue and could improve our profit margins.

We did not achieve profitability until our fiscal year ended December 31, 2002. As of December 31, 2004, we had retained earnings of $6.5 million. We expect to incur significant operating expenses over the next several years in connection with the continued development and expansion of our business. Our expenses include research and development and marketing expenses relating to products that will not be introduced and will not generate revenue until later periods, if at all. We may not sustain or increase profitability on a quarterly or annual basis in the future.

We may not be successful in addressing problems encountered in connection with our proposed transaction with Ulead or any other acquisitions we may undertake, which could disrupt our operations or otherwise harm our business.

On March 14, 2005, we announced the commencement of a tender offer to purchase a controlling percentage of the issued shares of Ulead. The tender offer is scheduled to expire on April 13, 2005. We have limited experience in acquiring businesses and technologies, including businesses with international operations. The proposed transaction with Ulead will be our largest acquisition to date. The transaction with Ulead and any other proposed or completed acquisitions and investments involve numerous risks, including:

We expect to continue to review opportunities to buy or make investments in other businesses, products or technologies that would enhance our technical capabilities, complement our current products or expand the breadth of our markets or that may otherwise offer growth opportunities. The successful completion of our tender offer for Ulead would utilize between $23 and $49 million of our working capital. Any other acquisitions of

businesses or technologies will require significant commitment of resources beyond the substantial portion of our cash committed for the tender offer. We may be required to pay for any acquisitions with cash, but we cannot be certain that additional capital will be available to us on favorable terms, if at all. In lieu of paying cash, we could issue stock as consideration for an acquisition that would dilute existing stockholders’ percentage ownership, incur substantial debt or assume contingent liabilities.

We license technology from third parties for use in our WinDVD and other standards-based products, and we might not be able to ship our products in their present forms if we fail to maintain these license arrangements.

We license technology for use in our WinDVD, WinDVD Creator and InterVideo Home Theater products and other existing and planned products from third parties under agreements, some of which have a limited duration. For example, we have a license agreement with Dolby Laboratories for its audio technology and logo, a license agreement with the DVD Copy Control Association, Inc. for the content scrambling system designed to prevent the copying of DVDs, a license with MPEG-LA for its MPEG-2 video technology, a license from Thomson Licensing S.A. for its MP3 audio technology and various other license agreements relating to patents, know-how and trademarks that are important to various aspects of the development, marketing and sale of our products. We are obligated to pay royalties under each of the Dolby, DVD Copy Control Association, MPEG-LA and Thomson Licensing S.A. agreements, and Dolby, DVD Copy Control Association, MPEG LA and Thomson Licensing may each terminate its license if we breach any material provision of the license or if other events occur, as specified in the license agreement. If we fail to maintain these license arrangements, we might not be able to ship our products in their present forms and our revenue could decline.

Because there is a small number of large PC OEMs, we have only a limited number of potential new large OEM customers for our WinDVD product, which will likely cause our revenue to grow at a slower rate than in recent periods.

Historically, our revenue growth has been achieved in large part due to sales of our WinDVD product to new, large PC OEM customers. More recently, we have derived an increasing percentage of our revenue from sales of our non-WinDVD products, which include WinDVD Creator, InterVideo Home Theater, InterVideo DVD Copy and our InstantON product. Because there is only a limited number of potential new, large PC OEM customers for our products, we must derive any future revenue growth principally from increased sales of WinDVD or other products to existing PC OEMs and PC peripherals manufacturers and from sales to smaller regional PC OEMs and directly to consumers through retail channels and our websites. Because some of these other revenue opportunities are more fragmented than the PC OEM market and will take more time and effort to penetrate, our revenue may grow at a slower rate than historically. Additionally, if the rate of such expansion via retail channels and our website proceeds slower than we anticipate, our financial position could be adversely affected.

We depend substantially on our relationships with a small number of PC OEMs, and our failure to maintain or expand these relationships would reduce our revenue and gross profit or otherwise harm our business.

The PC industry is highly concentrated, and we have derived a substantial portion of our revenue from sales of our products to a small number of PC OEMs. For the year ended December 31, 2004, our two largest customers accounted for 38% of our revenue, with Hewlett-Packard accounting for 25% and Toshiba accounting for 13% of our revenue during that period. We expect that a small number of customers will continue to account for a majority of our revenue, gross profit and accounts receivables for the foreseeable future because of the concentrated nature of our client base. If our customers dispute the accounts receivables or are otherwise unable to pay the balance, our income from operations could decline.

If the PC industry continues to consolidate, the number of customers accounting for the majority of our revenue could decrease further. Our agreements with our customers typically do not contain minimum purchase commitments and are of limited duration or are terminable with little or no notice. The loss of any of these customers, or a material decrease in revenue from these customers, would reduce our gross profit or otherwise harm our business.

If our competitors offer our OEM customers more favorable terms than we do or if our competitors are able to take advantage of their existing relationships with these OEMs, then these OEMs may not include our software with their PCs. If we are unable to maintain or expand our relationships with PC OEMs, our business will suffer.

As a result of our dependency on a small number of large PC OEMs, any problems those customers experience, or their failure to promote products that contain our software, could harm our operating results.

As a result of our concentrated customer base, problems that our PC OEM customers experience could harm our operating results. Some of the factors that affect the business of our PC OEM customers, all of which are beyond our control, include:

The inability of our PC OEM customers to successfully address any of these risks could harm our business. In addition, we have little or no influence over the degree to which these customers promote products that incorporate our software or the prices at which these products are sold to end users. If our PC OEM customers fail to adequately promote products that incorporate our software, our revenue could decline.

We have material weaknesses in our disclosure controls and internal controls over financial reporting that may prevent us from being able to accurately report our financial results or prevent fraud, which could harm our business and operating results.

Effective disclosure and internal controls are necessary for us to provide reliable and accurate financial reports and prevent fraud. In addition, Section 404 under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires that we assess, and our independent registered public accounting firm attest to, the design and operating effectiveness of our controls over financial reporting. If we cannot provide reliable and accurate financial reports and prevent fraud, our business and operating results could be harmed. We have in the past discovered, and may in the future discover, areas of our internal controls that need improvement. Although we, and our independent registered public accounting firm, have not completed all of the procedures and assessments required by Section 404 and we will avail ourselves of the 45-day exemptive order to complete such assessment, deficiencies in our internal controls that are considered to be material weaknesses have been identified in the procedures completed to date. The material weaknesses, as well as our remediation efforts, are more fully discussed in this Annual Report under Item 9A, “Controls and Procedures.”

While we have taken steps to remediate the identified material weaknesses during the first quarter of 2005, we cannot be certain that any remedial measures we take will ensure that we design, implement, and maintain adequate disclosure and internal controls over our financial processes and reporting in the future or will be

sufficient to address and eliminate the material weaknesses in our first quarter 2005 or next year’s annual assessment. Remedying the material weaknesses that have been identified, and any additional deficiencies, significant deficiencies or material weaknesses that we or our independent registered public accounting firm may identify in the future, could require us to incur significant costs, expend significant time and management resources or make other changes. We are currently unable to determine whether any of the material weaknesses identified in this report will be remediated by the end of our first quarter of fiscal 2005, and if they are not, we may be required to report in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the first quarter of fiscal 2005 or in subsequent reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission that material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting continue to exist. Any delay or failure to design and implement new or improved controls, or difficulties encountered in their implementation or operation, could harm our operating results, cause us to fail to meet our financial reporting obligations, or prevent us from providing reliable and accurate financial reports or avoiding or detecting fraud. Disclosure of our material weaknesses, any failure to remediate such material weaknesses in a timely fashion or having or maintaining ineffective disclosure and internal controls could cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, which could have a negative effect on the trading price of our stock and our access to capital.

We have received notices of claims, and may receive additional notices of claims in the future, regarding the alleged infringement of third parties’ intellectual property rights that may result in restrictions or prohibitions on the sale of our products and cause us to pay license fees and damages.

Some third parties hold patents that such parties’ claim cover various aspects of DVD technology incorporated into our and our customers’ products.

Our digital video and audio products comply with industry standard DVD specifications. Some third parties have claimed that various aspects of DVD technology incorporated into our and our customers’ products infringe upon patents held by them, including the following:

We and our customers may be subject to additional third-party claims that our and our customers’ products violate the intellectual property rights of those parties.

In addition to the claims described above, we may receive notices of claims of infringement of other parties’ proprietary rights. Many companies aggressively use their patent portfolios to bring infringement claims against competitors and other parties. As a result, we may become a party to litigation in the future as a result of an alleged infringement of the intellectual property rights of others, including DVD 6C or Nissim. In addition, we are aware that a consortium of companies, known as “4C,” has been formed for the purpose of asserting the patent rights of its members covering some aspects of DVD technology. 4C may demand that PC OEMs or other companies manufacturing or licensing DVD-related products, including us and our customers, pay license fees and damages for the use of the technology, or be prohibited from selling products, covered by the 4C patents. Similarly, other parties have alleged that aspects of MPEG-2 and other multimedia technologies infringe upon patents held by them. We may be required to pay license fees and damages or be prohibited from selling our products in the future if it is determined that our products infringe on patents owned by these third parties. In addition, other companies may form consortia in the future, similar to MPEG LA, DVD 6C and 4C, to enforce their proprietary rights and these consortia may seek to enforce their patent rights against us and our customers. Some of our products can be used in connection with the copying of video content, which may include content protected by copyright. Though we believe these products do not contribute to copyright infringement and do not defeat encryption in violation of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, some content owners have shown a willingness to instigate litigation against producers of products that could be used to copy copyrighted content. Defending such suits could be costly and could cause a serious disruption in our business regardless of the outcome.

We may be required to pay substantial damages and may be restricted or prohibited from selling our products if it is proven that we violate the intellectual property rights of others.

If DVD 6C, 4C, Nissim or another third party proves that our technology infringes its patents, we may be required to pay substantial damages for past infringement and may be required to pay license fees or royalties on future sales of our products. If we are required to pay license fees in the amounts that are currently published by, for example, DVD 6C for past sales to our large PC OEM customers, such fees would exceed the revenue we have received from those PC OEM customers. In addition, if it were proven that we willfully infringed on a third party’s patents, we may be held liable for three times the amount of damages we would otherwise have to pay. In addition, intellectual property litigation may require us to:

Furthermore, the defense of infringement claims and lawsuits, regardless of their outcome, would likely be expensive to resolve and could require a significant portion of management’s time. In addition, rather than litigating an infringement matter, we may determine that it is in our best interests to settle the matter. Terms of a settlement may include restrictions or prohibitions on our ability to sell products incorporating the other party’s

technology, the payment of damages and our agreement to license technology in exchange for a license fee and ongoing royalties. These fees may be substantial. If we are forced to take any of the actions described above, defend against any claims from third parties or pay any license fees or damages, our business could be harmed.

We may be liable to some of our customers for damages that they incur in connection with intellectual property claims.

Our license agreements, including the agreements we have entered into with our large PC OEM customers, generally contain warranties of non-infringement and commitments to indemnify our customers against liability arising from infringement of third-party intellectual property rights. Examples of third-party intellectual property rights include the patents held by Nissim and by members of MPEG LA, DVD 6C and 4C. These commitments may require us to indemnify or pay damages to our customers for all or a portion of any license fees or other damages, including attorneys’ fees, our customers are required to pay, or agree to pay, these or other third parties. We have received notices from some of our customers asserting that we are required to indemnify them under our agreements with them, or providing notice that they have received from third parties infringement claims that are related to our products. These customers include, among others, Fujitsu, Micron Electronics and MPC LLC (formerly known as Micron PC LLC), as well as other customers with which we have settled. We expect to make additional cash payments to settle similar claims in the future. Although MPEG LA has stated that some of our PC OEM customers, including Dell, Fujitsu Limited, Gateway, Hewlett-Packard, Sony and Toshiba, are currently MPEG LA licensees, not all of our PC OEM customers are MPEG LA licensees. Notwithstanding that we have signed a license agreement with MPEG LA, we may continue to be liable to some of our customers for amounts that those customers pay or have paid to MPEG LA in settlement of claims of infringement brought by MPEG LA against those customers. Even with respect to those PC OEM customers that have become licensees, we may have liability to these customers for prior infringement and future royalty payments. If we are required to pay damages to our customers or indemnify our customers for damages they incur, our business could be harmed. If our customers are required to pay license fees in the amounts that are currently published by some claimants, and we are required to pay damages to our customers or indemnify our customers for such amounts, such payments would exceed our revenue from these customers. Even if a particular claim falls outside of our indemnity or warranty obligations to our customers, our customers may be entitled to additional contractual remedies against us. Furthermore, even if we are not liable to our customers, our customers may attempt to pass on to us the cost of any license fees or damages owed to third parties by reducing the amounts they pay for our products. These price reductions could harm our business.

We have derived a majority of our revenue from the sale of our WinDVD product to PC OEMs, and these customers may not continue to purchase this product or we may fail to attract new customers for this product.

We derived 71% of our revenue for the year ended December 31, 2004 from sales of our WinDVD product, primarily to PC OEMs. We expect that revenue from sales of our WinDVD product to PC OEMs will continue to account for a majority of our revenue for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, our business will suffer if our existing PC OEM customers do not continue to incorporate our WinDVD product into the PCs they sell or if we are unable to obtain new PC OEM customers for our WinDVD product.

Slow growth, or negative growth, in the PC industry could reduce demand for our products and reduce our gross profit.

Our revenue depends in large part on the demand for our products by PC OEMs. The PC industry has experienced slow or negative growth in the recent past due to general economic slowdowns, market saturation and other factors. If slow or negative growth in the PC industry were to recur, demand for our products may decrease. Furthermore, if a reduction in demand for our products occurs, we may not be able to reduce expenses commensurately, due in part to the continuing need for research and development. Accordingly, continued slow growth or negative growth in the PC industry could reduce our gross profit.

Our success in generating revenue depends on the growth of the use of software solutions in the PC and consumer electronics industries.

Our continued success in generating revenue depends on growth in the use of software solutions to add features and functionality to PCs and CE devices. Our software is currently used primarily in PCs, and we expect it to be useful for CE products. These markets are rapidly evolving, and it is difficult to predict their potential size or future growth rate. In addition, we are uncertain as to the extent to which software products such as ours will be used in these markets in the future. Their market acceptance may be impacted by the performance, cost and availability of semiconductors that perform similar functions and the level of copy protection that can be attained and maintained in software products. Our success in generating revenue in these markets will depend on increased adoption of software solutions based on the same standards as ours. If the PC and consumer electronics markets adopt software solutions more slowly than we expect, or if content providers are dissatisfied with the level of copy protection available in software products, our growth would not likely continue, and our business would likely suffer.

Our products are based primarily on the Microsoft Windows operating system, and most of our customers require that the combination of our software products and their PCs be certified by Microsoft’s Windows Hardware Qualification Labs. Accordingly, we are dependent on Microsoft, which exposes us to risks, particularly if Microsoft chooses to compete with us in the future.

Our products are based primarily on the Microsoft Windows operating system. If industry and customer preferences in operating systems shift, our products may not be compatible with other operating systems and our business could be harmed.

Our revenue is highly dependent upon acceptance of products that are based on the Microsoft Windows operating system, which is currently the dominant operating system used in the PC industry. Microsoft could make changes to its operating system that could render our products incompatible. Other industry participants could develop operating systems to replace the Windows operating system, and our products might not be compatible with those operating systems. If our products are not compatible with one or more of the operating systems with significant PC market share, we could incur substantial costs and expend significant capital and other resources to adapt our products to one or more operating systems. There is no assurance that we would be able to adapt our products to changes made in the Windows operating system in the future or to a new operating system, and any failure to adapt to changes in operating systems by the PC industry could result in significant harm to our business.

Most of our customers require that the combination of our software products and their PCs be certified by Microsoft’s Windows Hardware Qualification Labs. If certification is not obtained, our revenue could decline or our customers may license a competitor’s software.

We sell most of our products through PC OEMs, which bundle our products with their hardware products. Most of our PC OEM customers require Microsoft’s Windows Hardware Qualifications Labs, or WHQL, certification for our products on each PC platform before bundling and distribution. The certification process is entirely under Microsoft’s control, and we may not obtain certification for any product on a timely basis or at all. Furthermore, Microsoft may change the requirements for certification at any time without notice. At various times in the past, Microsoft has changed standards applicable to our products, which caused us to be out of compliance for a period of time. In the future, we may not be able to obtain necessary certification on a timely basis, if at all, for new PC models introduced by our customers, for any of our products under development or for existing products, if the current standards are changed. Any delays in receipt of, or failure to receive, such certification could cause our revenue to decline or our customers to license a competitor’s software.

If Microsoft develops or licenses digital video and audio solutions that compete directly with ours, our business could suffer.

Microsoft currently offers products in the digital video and audio software markets. Some video and audio capabilities are built directly into their operating systems or are offered as upgrades to those operating systems at no additional charge. If Microsoft develops or licenses digital video and audio solutions that compete directly with ours and incorporates the solutions into its operating system, or otherwise changes its operating system or its Windows Hardware Qualification Labs standards to render our products incompatible, our business could be harmed.

Competition in our industry is intense and is likely to continue to increase, which could result in price reductions, decreased customer orders, reduced product margins and loss of market share, any of which could harm our business.

Our industry is highly competitive, and we expect competition to intensify in the future. Our competitors include:

Our primary competitors are Adobe Systems Incorporated, Cyberlink Corporation, Pinnacle Systems, Inc., Sonic Solutions, Inc. and Ulead Systems, Inc. Additional competitors are likely to enter our industry in the future. We also face competition from the internal research and development departments of other software companies and PC and CE manufacturers, including some of our current customers. Some of our customers have the capability to integrate their operations vertically by developing their own software-based digital and audio solutions or by acquiring our competitors or the rights to develop competitive products or technologies, which may allow these customers to reduce their purchases or cease purchasing from us completely. Operating system providers with an established customer base, such as Microsoft, already offer products in the digital video and audio software markets. Some video and audio capabilities are built directly into their operating systems or are offered as upgrades to those operating systems at no additional charge. If Microsoft or other operating system providers develop or license digital video and audio solutions that compete directly with ours and incorporate the solutions into their operating systems, our products could lose market share.

We expect our current competitors to introduce similar or improved products at lower prices, and we will need to do the same to remain competitive. For example, we expect revenues from Dell to decline in successive quarters with the possibility of no revenue from Dell in the future periods, because our current portion of their business is moving to one of our competitors. We may not be able to compete successfully against either current or future competitors with respect to new or improved products. We believe that competitive pressures may result in price reductions, reduced margins and our loss of market share.

Many of our current competitors and potential competitors have longer operating histories and significantly greater financial, technical, sales and marketing resources or greater name recognition than we do. As a result, these competitors are able to devote greater resources to the development, promotion, sale and support of their products. In addition, our competitors that have large market capitalizations or cash reserves are in a better position to acquire other companies in order to gain new technologies or products that may displace our products. Any of these potential acquisitions could give our competitors a strategic advantage. In addition, some of our current competitors and potential competitors have greater brand name recognition, a more extensive customer base, more developed distribution channels and broader product offerings than we do. These companies can use their broader customer base and product offerings, or adopt aggressive pricing policies, to gain market share.

Increased competition in the market may result in price reductions, decreased customer orders, reduced profit margins and loss of market share, any of which could harm our business.

If we do not provide acceptable customer support, our reputation will suffer and it will be difficult to retain existing customers or to acquire new customers.

We will need to continue to provide acceptable customer support to our customers. An inability to do so will harm our reputation and make it difficult to retain existing customers or acquire new customers. Most of our experience to date has been with corporate customers, some of which require significant support when familiarizing themselves with the features and functionality of our products. We intend to increase sales of our products directly to consumers. We have limited experience with widespread distribution of our products directly to consumers, and we may not have adequate experience or personnel to provide the levels of support that these customers require. Our failure to provide adequate customer support for our products to either our corporate or consumer customers could damage our reputation and brand in the marketplace and strain our relationships with customers. This could prevent us from retaining existing customers or acquiring new customers.

Our ability to achieve profitability will suffer if we fail to manage our growth effectively.

Our success depends on our ability to effectively manage the growth of our operations. We cannot be certain that our current cost structure is appropriate for the level of revenue that we generate. Furthermore, we expect to increase the scope of our operations in the future. To manage the growth of our operations and personnel, we will need to improve our operational and financial systems, procedures and controls as well as hire additional qualified personnel. Our current and planned systems, procedures and controls may not be adequate to support our future operations and expected growth. Delays or problems associated with any improvement or expansion of our operational systems and controls could harm our relationships with customers, reputation and brand.

The loss of any of our strategic relationships would make it more difficult to design competitive products and keep pace with evolving industry standards, which could reduce demand for our products and harm our business.

We must design our software products to interoperate effectively with a variety of hardware and software products, including operating system software, graphics chips, DVD drives, PCs and PC chipsets. We depend on strategic relationships with software developers and manufacturers of these products, particularly Microsoft and Intel, to achieve our design objectives, to produce products that interoperate successfully, to provide us with information concerning customer preferences and evolving industry standards and trends, and to assist us in distributing our products to users. For example, we have been able to learn about future product lines being developed by some of our OEM customers in advance so that we were able to more efficiently design products that our customers, and the ultimate end users, find valuable. However, we generally do not have any agreements with these third parties to ensure that such information will be provided to us, and these relationships may not continue in the future. The loss of any one of these relationships could reduce demand for our products and harm our business.

Our products may have defects or may be incompatible with other software or components contained in our customers’ products, which could cause us to lose customers, damage our reputation and create substantial costs.

Defects, referred to in the software industry as “bugs,” have been found in our products in the past and may be found in the future. In addition, our products may fail to meet our customers’ design specifications or be incompatible with other software or components contained in our customers’ products, or our customers may change their design specifications or add additional third-party software or components after the production of our products. We may be required to devote significant financial resources and personnel to correct any defects.

A failure to meet our customers’ design specification often results in a loss of sales due to the length of time required to redesign the product. Our products may also be required to interface with defective third-party software or components. If we are unable to detect or fix errors, or meet our customers’ design specifications, our business and results of operations would suffer.

We may experience seasonality in our business, which could cause our operating results to fluctuate.

Our financial condition and results of operations are likely to be affected by seasonality in the future. Historically, PC OEMs have experienced their highest volume of sales during the year-end holiday season. Because of the timing of our recognition of revenue associated with the sale of our products to OEMs, we expect this seasonality to have a positive effect on our revenue and operating income in the first quarter of each calendar year and a negative effect on our revenue and operating income in the second quarter of that year. To the extent our retail sales increase as a percentage of our revenue, we expect this would also result in greater seasonality in our results of operations.

The market for our products is new and constantly changing. If we do not respond to changes in a timely manner, our products likely will no longer be competitive.

The market for our products is characterized by rapid technological change, new and improved product introductions, changes in customer requirements and evolving industry standards. Our future success will depend to a substantial extent on our ability to develop, introduce and support cost-effective new products and technologies on a timely basis. If we fail to develop and deploy new cost-effective products and technologies or enhancements of existing products on a timely basis, or if we experience delays in the development, introduction or enhancement of our products and technologies, our products will no longer be competitive and our business will suffer. The development of new, technologically advanced products is a complex and uncertain process requiring high levels of innovation and highly skilled engineering and development personnel, as well as the accurate anticipation of technological and market trends. We may not be able to identify, develop, manufacture, market or support new or enhanced products on a timely basis, if at all. Furthermore, our new products may never gain market acceptance, and we may not be able to respond effectively to product announcements by competitors, technological changes or emerging industry standards, such as high definition and Blu-ray DVD. Our failure to respond to product announcements, technological changes or changes in industry standards would likely prevent our products from gaining market acceptance and harm our business.

If we do not successfully establish strong brand identity in the PC and consumer electronics markets, we may be unable to achieve widespread acceptance of our products.

We believe that establishing and strengthening the InterVideo brand is critical to achieving widespread acceptance of our products and to establishing key strategic relationships. The importance of brand recognition will increase as current and potential competitors enter the market with competing products. Our ability to promote and position our brand depends largely on the success of our marketing efforts and our ability to provide high quality products and customer support. These activities are expensive and we may not generate a corresponding increase in customers or revenue to justify these costs. If we fail to establish and maintain our brand, or if our brand value is damaged or diluted, we may be unable to attract new customers and compete effectively. Historically, we have relied primarily on a limited direct sales force, supported by third-party manufacturers’ representatives and distributors, to sell our products. Our sales strategy focuses primarily on our corporate customers bundling our products with their hardware and distributing our products through their own distribution channels. We rely on our customers’ sales forces, marketing budgets and brand images to promote sales of bundled products. If our corporate customers fail to successfully market and sell their products bundled with our products, or if our relationship with our corporate customers are terminated, we may be unable to effectively market and distribute our products and services.

We rely on patents, trademarks, copyrights, trade secrets and license agreements to protect our proprietary rights, which afford only limited protection.

Our success depends upon our ability to protect our proprietary rights. We rely on a combination of patent, copyright, trademark and trade secret laws, as well as license and confidentiality agreements with our employees, customers, strategic partners and others to establish and protect our proprietary rights. The protection of patentable inventions is important to our future opportunities. We currently have or own the rights to 11 issued U.S. patents, 22 patents issued in Taiwan and three in China and we have 90 pending patent applications, comprised of 35 U.S. patent applications and 55 foreign patent applications. It is possible that:

Existing copyright, trademark and trade secret laws and license and confidentiality agreements afford only limited protection. In addition, the laws of some foreign countries do not protect our proprietary rights to the same extent as do the laws of the United States, and policing the unauthorized use of our products is difficult. Any failure to adequately protect our proprietary rights could result in our competitors offering similar products, potentially resulting in the loss of some of our competitive advantage and a decrease in our revenue. Infringement claims and lawsuits would likely be expensive to resolve and would require management’s time and resources and, therefore, could harm our business.

Our success depends on retaining our key personnel, including our executive officers, the loss of any of whom could disrupt our operations or otherwise harm our business.

Our success depends on the continued contributions of our senior management and other key engineering, sales and marketing and operations personnel. Competition for employees in our industry can be intense. We do not have employment agreements with, or key man life insurance policies covering, any of our executives. In addition, significant portions of the capital stock and options held by the members of our management are vested, and some of our executives are parties to agreements that provide for the acceleration of the vesting of a portion of their unvested shares and options under certain circumstances in connection with a change of control. There can be no assurance that we will retain our key employees or be able to hire replacements. Our loss of any key employee or an inability to replace lost key employees and add new key employees as we grow could disrupt our operations or otherwise harm our business.

We rely on the accuracy of our customers’ sales reports for collecting and reporting revenue. If these reports are not accurate, our reported revenue will be inaccurate.

A substantial majority of our revenue is generated by our PC OEM and consumer electronics customers that pay us a license fee based upon the number of copies of our software they bundle with the PCs that they sell. In collecting these fees, preparing our financial reports, projections and budgets and in directing our sales efforts

and product development, we rely on our customers to accurately report the number of units licensed. We have never audited any of our customers to verify the accuracy of their reports or payments. Most of our license agreements permit us to audit our customers, but audits are expensive and time consuming and could harm our customer relationships. From time to time, customers have provided us with inaccurate reports, which resulted in our under-reporting or over-reporting revenue for the associated period and recording an adjustment in a future period. If any of our customer reports are inaccurate, the revenue we collect and report will be inaccurate and we may be required to make an adjustment to our revenue for a subsequent period, which could harm our business and credibility in the financial community.

Our international operations accounted for 47% of our revenue for the year ended December 31, 2004 and 44% of our revenue for the year ended December 31, 2003, which may expose us to political, regulatory, economic, foreign exchange and operational risks.

Because we sell our products worldwide, our business is subject to risks associated with doing business internationally. We expect to continue to derive a significant portion of our revenue from international sales. We intend to expand our international operations in the future. Significant management attention and financial resources are needed to develop our international sales, support and distribution channels and manufacturing. We may not be able to maintain international market demand for our products. Our future results could be harmed by a variety of factors related to international operations, including:

Currently, most of our international sales are denominated in U.S. dollars. Therefore, a strengthening of the dollar could make our products less competitive in foreign markets. Our current distribution agreements shift foreign exchange risk to our foreign distributors. This exchange risk may harm the businesses of those distributors or make them less willing to carry and sell our products. We do not use derivative instruments to hedge foreign exchange risk. In the future, a portion of our international revenue and expenses may be denominated in foreign currencies. Accordingly, we could experience the risks of fluctuating currencies and may choose to engage in currency hedging activities. In addition, if we conduct sales in local currencies, we may engage in hedging activities, which may not be successful and could expose us to additional risks.

In addition, we and certain of our OEM customers maintain significant operations in Asia. Any kind of economic, political or environmental instability in this region of the world could harm our operating results. Further, we may be impacted by the political, economic and military instability in Taiwan.

We may require substantial additional capital, which may not be available on acceptable terms or at all.

To the extent the proceeds of this offering and our existing sources of cash and cash flow from operations are not sufficient to fund our activities, we may need to raise additional funds. If we issue additional stock to raise capital, each stockholders’ percentage ownership in the Company would be reduced. Additional financing may not be available when needed on terms acceptable to us or at all. If we raise funds through debt financing, we will have to pay interest and may be subject to restrictive covenants, which could limit our ability to take advantage of future opportunities, respond to competitive pressures or unanticipated industry changes. If we cannot raise necessary additional capital on acceptable terms, we may not be able to develop or enhance our products, take advantage of future opportunities or respond to competitive pressures or unanticipated industry changes.

The price at which our common stock trades is likely to be highly volatile and may fluctuate substantially due to many factors, some of which are:

In addition, the stock market has experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that has affected the market prices for the common stock of technology companies. In the past, these market fluctuations were often

unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of these companies. Any significant fluctuations in the future might result in a significant decline in the market price of our common stock.

We have implemented anti-takeover provisions that could discourage a third party from acquiring us and consequently cause our stock price to decline.

Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws contain provisions that may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change of control or changes in management that a stockholder might consider favorable. Our certificate and bylaws, among other things, provide for a classified board of directors, require that stockholder actions occur at duly called meetings of the stockholders, limit who may call special meetings of stockholders and require advance notice of stockholder proposals and director nominations. These provisions, along with the provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law, such as Section 203, prohibiting certain business combinations with an interested stockholder, may delay or impede a merger, tender offer or proxy contest involving us. Any delay or prevention of a change of control transaction or changes in management could cause the market price of our common stock to decline.

Consistent with Section 10A(i)(2) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as added by Section 202 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, we are responsible for listing the non-audit services pre-approved in the fourth quarter of 2004 by our Audit Committee to be performed by KPMG LLP, our external auditor. During the third quarter ended September 30, 2004, KPMG performed certain due diligence procedures in connection with a strategic transaction.

We are exposed to the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and changes in interest rates.

To date, most of our revenue has been denominated in U.S. dollars. We may, however, begin denominating revenue from selected international markets in the currency of the applicable market. As a result, our operating results may become subject to significant fluctuations based upon changes in the exchange rates of some currencies in relation to the U.S. dollar. We will continue to monitor our exposure to currency fluctuations and in the future, we may use economic hedging techniques to minimize the effect of these exchange rate fluctuations that may harm our financial results. For the year ended December 31, 2004, we did not have significant foreign currency denominated net assets or net liabilities positions, and had no foreign currency contracts outstanding.

We have limited exposure to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates. Due to the short-term nature of our investments, we believe that we are not exposed to any material market risk. In addition, our investment portfolio consists of investment-grade securities diversified among security types, industries, and issuers. Our cash and investments are held and managed by recognized financial institutions that follow InterVideo’s investment policy. Our policy limits the amount of market exposure to any one security issue or issuer, and we believe no significant concentration of market risk exists with respect to these investments.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of InterVideo, Inc. and subsidiaries (the Company) as of December 31, 2004 and 2003, and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholders’ equity and comprehensive income and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2004. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of InterVideo, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2004 and 2003, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2004, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

The accompanying Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements are an integral part of these financial statements.

InterVideo, Inc. (“InterVideo” or the “Company”) is a provider of multimedia software products. These products span the digital video cycle by allowing users to capture, edit, author, distribute, burn and play digital video. The Company has historically derived a majority of its revenue from sales of its WinDVD product, a software DVD player for personal computers (“PCs”) to PC original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”). Other products include WinDVD Creator, InstantON, InterVideo Home Theater, InterVideo DVD Copy and Linux-based versions of its DVD and DVR software designed for Linux-based PCs and consumer electronic (“CE”) devices. The Company’s software is bundled with products sold by PC OEMs. The Company sells its products to PC OEMs, CE manufacturers and PC peripherals manufacturers worldwide. In addition, the Company sells products through retail channels and directly to consumers through its websites.

In April 2002, the Board of Directors approved the Company’s reincorporation in Delaware, which was completed in May 2002.

In July 2003, the Company completed its initial public offering (“IPO”), issuing 3,220,000 shares at the offering price of $14.00 per share. The net proceeds were approximately $40.4 million after deducting the underwriting fee and other offering expenses, a total of $4.7 million. Upon the completion of IPO, all 12.8 million shares of preferred stock automatically converted into 6.9 million shares of common stock.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of InterVideo, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. All international subsidiaries of the Company have established a month end cut-off of three working days prior to the end of any given month.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company based its estimates and assumptions on historical experience and on various other assumptions believed to be applicable and evaluate them on an on-going basis to ensure they remain reasonable under current conditions. Actual results could materially differ from these estimates.

The functional currency of the Company’s subsidiaries is the local currency. Accordingly, all assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the current exchange rate at the applicable balance sheet date. Revenue and expenses are translated at the average exchange rate prevailing during the period. The effects of these translation adjustments are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) as a separate component of stockholders’ equity. Exchange gains or losses arising from transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of an entity are included in other income, net and have not been significant to the Company’s operating results in any periods presented.

The fair value of the Company’s cash equivalents, short-term investments, accounts receivable, marketable equity securities and accounts payable approximate their respective carrying amounts due to their relatively short-term maturities.

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less, at the date of purchase, to be cash equivalents.

Short-term investments consist principally of United States treasury, state and municipal notes/bonds and corporate bonds. The Company currently classifies all investment securities as available-for-sale. Securities classified as available-for-sale are required to be reported at fair value with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and included in other comprehensive income (loss).

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of accounts receivable. The Company generally does not require its customers to provide collateral or other security to support accounts receivable. To reduce credit risk, management performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and maintains allowances for estimated potential bad debt losses.

Customers’ accounts receivable balances that were individually greater than 10% of total accounts receivable, before allowances for doubtful accounts, at any of the years ended presented were:

The following individual customers accounted for greater than 10% of revenue in any one of the years presented:

The Company makes judgments as to its ability to collect outstanding receivables and provides allowances for a portion of receivables when collection becomes doubtful. Provisions are made based upon a specific review of all significant outstanding invoices and the overall quality and age of those invoices not specifically reviewed. An additional provision is made for invoices not specifically reviewed that are older than sixty days past due, net of any other reserves.

Below is a summary of the changes in the Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002.

Property and equipment are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation or amortization. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method based on estimated useful lives of between three and seven years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of the lease terms or the estimated useful lives of the improvements. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Cost and accumulated depreciation of assets sold or retired are removed from the respective property accounts, and the gain or loss is reflected in the statement of operations

The Company accounts for goodwill in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 142 “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” (“SFAS 142”). SFAS 142 requires that intangible assets with an indefinite life should not be amortized until their life is determined to be finite. SFAS 142 also requires that goodwill not be amortized but instead tested for impairment at least annually and more frequently upon the occurrence of certain events. The Company adopted SFAS 142 effective January 1, 2002.

As required by SFAS 142, the Company ceased amortization of goodwill associated with the acquisition of Audio Video Product Division (“AVPD”) effective January 1, 2002. Prior to January 1, 2002, the Company amortized goodwill associated with the AVPD acquisition over five years using the straight-line method.

The Company tests goodwill for impairment at the reporting unit level at least annually and more frequently upon the occurrence of certain events, as defined by SFAS 142. Consistent with the Company’s determination that it has only one operating segment, the Company has determined that it has only one reporting unit. Goodwill is tested for impairment annually, in the fourth quarter, in a two-step process. First, the Company determines if the carrying amount of its reporting unit exceeds the “fair value” of the reporting unit, which would indicate that goodwill may be impaired. If the Company determines that goodwill may be impaired, the Company compares the “implied fair value” of the goodwill, as defined by SFAS 142, to its carrying amount to determine if there is an impairment loss. Since the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds its net book value as of December 31, 2004, there is no goodwill impairment for the year.

The Company accounts for intangible assets with finite lives in accordance with SFAS 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.” SFAS 144 addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets. In accordance with SFAS 144, when events and circumstances warrant a review, the Company evaluates the carrying value of long-lived assets to be held and used. The carrying value of an asset is considered impaired when the anticipated undiscounted cash flow from such an asset is less than its carrying value. In that event, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying value exceeds its fair value. Fair value is determined using the anticipated cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate with the risk involved. Losses on long-lived assets to be disposed of are determined in a similar manner except that fair values are reduced by the cost to dispose of such assets.

The Company from time to time acquires certain equity investments for the promotion of business and strategic objectives. Non-marketable equity investments are accounted for using the equity method if the Company has significant influence over operating and financial policies of the investee, or using the cost method if the Company cannot assert significant influence over the investee. Marketable equity investments are accounted for as available-for-sale securities with unrealized gains and losses included in other comprehensive income in equity. Such investments are also subjected to periodic impairment review. If there are no liquid markets to provide information for valuing such securities, the impairment analysis involves significant judgment on the part of management. Should the Company determine that a decline in the securities’ fair value is considered to be other than temporary, a writedown is recorded in other income, net. As of December 31, 2004, the Company has concluded there is no indication of loss in value that is other than temporary for its long-term investments and therefore, there is no impairment recorded for the year.

The Company’s revenue is primarily derived from fees received under software licenses granted to PC OEMs, CE manufacturers, PC peripherals manufacturers, retail distributors, retail customers and directly to end users or businesses. The Company records revenue generated from these sales in accordance with SOP 97-2, “Software Revenue Recognition,” as amended, under which revenue is recognized when evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery of the software has occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable, and collectibility is probable.

Typically, under the terms of the Company’s license agreements with its OEM customers, they are entitled only to unspecified upgrades on a when and if available basis, prior to sale into the OEM’s sales channel partners or sell through to the OEM’s end customers. Under the terms of the Company’s revenue recognition policy, the Company recognizes revenue based on evidence of products sold by our OEM customers to end customers or to the OEM’s sales channel partners. The Company does not typically provide upgrades or post contract support (“PCS”) to the OEMs’ customers or sales channel partners. Accordingly, under such agreements the Company does not defer any revenue, as the Company no longer has an obligation once an OEM’s products have been shipped from the OEM to the OEM’s sales channel partners or to an OEM’s end customer. Under certain other agreements, the Company defers the recognition of OEM revenue due to ongoing obligations in association with upgrade rights to end users or significant PCS provided to the OEM’s customers. Depending on the specific contractual obligation, the Company recognizes this revenue over a period of the shorter of the contractual obligation period or the estimated life of the product. In general, the Company considers the estimated life of our products to be three years.

Typically, the Company’s OEM customers do not have the right to claim a credit or refund for returns from the OEM’s sales channel partners or end customers back to the OEM. However, in the few instances where InterVideo has granted its OEM customers with the right to claim a refund or credit for these types of returns, the Company defers 100% of the revenue until it is able to establish a returns reserve based on historical returns activity, that is specific to the respective sales channel, product line or country. InterVideo has determined that the return percentage for the WinDVD product line for its OEM sales channel for sales made in the United States has been less than 0.1% of sales. As a result, InterVideo has not deferred WinDVD sales to OEM customers in the United States that have been granted a right of return. If in the future, the actual or estimated number of returned units materially increases as a percentage of sales, InterVideo may be required to establish a return reserve for these sales.

Under the terms of the OEM license agreements, each OEM qualifies InterVideo’s software on their hardware and software configurations. Once the Company’s software has been qualified, the OEM begins shipping products and reports net sales to the Company, at which point the Company records revenue. Most OEMs pay a license fee based on the number of copies of licensed software included in the products sold to their

customers. These OEMs pay fees on a per-unit basis, and the Company records associated revenue when it receives notification of the OEMs’ sales of the licensed software to an end customer or a sales channel partner. The terms of the license agreements generally require the OEMs to notify the Company of sales of our products within 30 to 45 days after the end of the month or quarter in which the sales occur. As a result, the Company generally recognizes revenue in the month or quarter following the sales of the software to these OEMs’ customers.

A small number of OEMs that sell PC components, place orders with the Company for a fixed quantity of units at a fixed price based on an agreed-upon purchase order or contract. In such cases, qualification of the Company’s software is not required, and these OEMs have no rights to upgrades or returns. The Company generally recognizes revenue upon the completion of shipment, in accordance with the terms of the respective agreement, to these OEMs.

In addition to the per unit license fees discussed above, certain OEM agreements also include prepaid license fees and/or non-recurring engineering (“NRE”) service fees primarily for porting the Company’s software to the OEM’s hardware and software configurations. Since the Company provides when and if available upgrade rights to its OEM customers on the products they have licensed from the point in time when they receive the product until the point in time when they have sold the product to their sales channel partners or end customers, any prepaid license fees are recognized based on actual shipments after the upgrade rights have lapsed. The NRE service fees are recognized upon completion and acceptance of the NRE service. Some OEM agreements provide the OEM with rights to PCS to be provided by InterVideo to the OEM’s end customers. This PCS may or may not include the right to unspecified future software upgrades. PCS is typically not available to the OEMs’ end users. InterVideo has established vendor specific objective evidence (“VSOE”) of fair value for PCS for end customer support on a limited number of products sold to OEMs in Japan. On these arrangements, the Company uses the residual method to account for the allocation between the license revenue and the service revenue. The allocated license revenue is recognized in full upon the OEM’s sale of the licensed product to the OEM’s sales channel partners and, where the only undelivered element of the agreement is PCS, the allocated PCS is recognized over the period of the PCS obligation. In all other agreements where InterVideo has sold PCS in which the Company has not been able to establish a VSOE of fair value for PCS or where there are additional undelivered elements, such as NRE service fees, the Company defers all of the revenue until the additional undelivered elements are accepted and the only undelivered element is PCS. Once the only undelivered element is PCS, the Company recognizes the entire arrangement fee over the PCS period.

End-user sales are made directly through the Company’s websites. The Company does not offer specified upgrade rights to any class of customer, and there are no unspecified upgrade rights associated with end-user sales. The Company recognizes revenue from sales through its websites upon delivery of product and the receipt of payment by means of an authorized credit card. End users who purchase InterVideo’s software from the Company’s websites have limited rights of return for products they have purchased in the previous 14 days, which the Company currently reserves for using a 30-days sales return reserve based on the historical return percentage.

The Company sells its products to retailers and retail distributors either on a consignment or non-consignment basis. For consignment product shipments, in general, the distributor will not take ownership of the product at the point in time when InterVideo ships product to the distributor. Once the distributor sells the consignment-based product to a retailer or an end customer ownership is transferred from the Company to the retailer or end customer, the distributor will report those sales to the Company and InterVideo invoices the distributor. For non-consignment product shipments, the distributor will take ownership of the product at the point in time when the Company ships the product to the distributor and the Company invoices the distributor upon such shipment. Since the Company does not have contractually obligated minimum orders or payment terms with our distributors, the Company does not recognize revenue for retail product distribution prior to invoicing. Certain distributors and retailers, primarily in Japan, have limited rights to return products that were

purchased in the previous six months. These distributors have no rights to product upgrades. The Company generally recognizes revenue, net of contractually obligated return rights and any additional required rebate or pricing reserves, upon completion of shipment to these distributors and retailers. Other distributors and retailers, primarily in the United States and Europe, have unlimited rights of return. The Company generally recognizes revenue upon receipt of evidence that the distributors and retailers have sold our products through to end users, less any required rebate or pricing reserves.

The Company has begun selling licenses of its products to corporations and other business in the United States. This corporate licensing program is generally conducted either directly between InterVideo and the licensee or through a reseller. For these sales the Company does not provide the corporation a right to return the product once it has been delivered and we do not provide support or upgrade rights to that licensee. The Company currently recognizes revenue for these sales upon confirmation of delivery of the product.

Certain customer agreements call for the payment by the Company of marketing development funds, co-operative advertising fees, rebates or similar charges. The Company accounts for such fees in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) Issue No. 99-19 as a reduction in revenue unless there is an identifiable benefit and the fair value of the charges can be reasonably estimated in which case the Company records these transactions as marketing expense. Commissions paid to third-party sales representatives are included in sales and marketing expenses.

Cost of revenue consists primarily of licensed royalties, expenses incurred to manufacture, package and distribute the Company’s software products, the amortization of developed technology, costs associated with end-user PCS and the cost of settlement of intellectual property matters. Licensed royalties consist of royalties paid or accrued for payment to third parties for technologies incorporated into the Company’s products. In general, the amount of royalties depends on the number of units sold of the Company’s product and the royalty rates associated with the third-party technology incorporated into those products. The Company sometimes prepays for the right to bundle and distribute certain licensed technologies. In general, these prepayments are at a flat rate and are not associated with the number of units of the bundled product that is shipped. In general, the license rights are granted for one year and the estimated useful life of the technology is three years. End-user PCS costs include the costs associated with providing assistance to end users of the Company’s products. With the exception of packaging and distribution costs, the cost of revenue is generally the same for each product, regardless of sales channel. Certain product costs associated with sales to distributors, retailers and end users are deferred until the corresponding revenue has been recognized. Cost of settlement of intellectual property matters consists of amounts that we have agreed to pay to third-parties in settlement of alleged infringement of certain patented technology used in our customers’ products and accruals for royalties related to our usage of technologies under patent where no agreement exists.

Under SFAS 86, “Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed,” costs incurred in the research and development of software are expensed as incurred until technological feasibility has been established. Software development costs incurred subsequent to the establishment of technological feasibility through the period of general marketability of the products are capitalized. The Company defines establishment of technological feasibility as the completion of a working model. The establishment of technological feasibility and the ongoing assessment of recoverability of these costs require considerable judgment by management. Because the period of time between development of a working model and the product’s general release is short, the Company generally views technological feasibility as the point in time that the software is released. Amounts that were capitalizable under SFAS 86 were insignificant, and therefore no costs have been capitalized to date.

Basic net income per common share is calculated by dividing net income for the period by the weighted average common shares outstanding during the period, less shares subject to repurchase. Diluted net income per common share is calculated by dividing the net income for the period by the weighted average common shares outstanding, adjusted for all potential common shares, which include shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding common stock options, convertible preferred stock and other contingent issuances of common stock to the extent these shares are dilutive.

A reconciliation of the numerator and denominator used in the calculation of basic and diluted net income per common share is as follows (in thousands, except per share amounts):

The following are potential common shares not included in the denominator used in the dilutive net income per share calculation, because to do so would be antidilutive for the periods presented (in thousands):

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation to employees under the recognition and measurement principles of Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” (“APB 25”) and related interpretations, and the disclosure requirements of SFAS 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation – Transition and Disclosure”, an amendment of SFAS 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.” No stock-based compensation expense is recorded for options granted to employees of which the exercise price equals or exceeds the market price of the underlying stock on the date of grant in accordance with the provisions of APB 25.

Stock-based compensation expense is allocated among the operating expense classifications as follows:

The following table illustrates the effect on net income and net income per share had the Company applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS 123 to stock-based compensation to employees.

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Deferred income taxes are recognized by applying enacted statutory tax rates applicable to future years to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the period that includes the enactment date. The measurement of deferred tax assets is reduced, if necessary, by a valuation allowance for any tax benefits for which future realization is uncertain.

Comprehensive income is the total of net income and all other non-owner changes in stockholders’ equity. The components of the Company’s other comprehensive income consists primarily of adjustments related to foreign currency translation and adjustments related to the market valuation on the Company’s available-for-sale investments. Such amounts are excluded from net income and are reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

In March 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued EITF Issue No. 03-01 (“EITF 03-1”), “The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments” which provides new guidance for assessing impairment losses on investments. Additionally, EITF 03-1 includes new disclosure requirements for investments that are deemed to be temporarily impaired. In September 2004, the FASB delayed the accounting provisions of EITF 03-1; however the disclosure requirements remain effective for annual periods ending after June 15, 2004. We will evaluate the impact of EITF 03-1 once final guidance is issued.

On December 16, 2004, the FASB issued SFAS 123R, “Share Based Payments”, which is a revision of SFAS No. 123. SFAS 123R supersedes APB 25. Under SFAS 123R, companies must calculate and record in the income statement the cost of equity instruments, such as stock options awarded to employees for services received; pro forma disclosure is no longer permitted. The cost of the equity instruments is to be measured based on the fair value of the instruments on the date they are granted (with certain exceptions) and is required to be recognized over the period during which the employees are required to provide services in exchange for the equity instruments. The statement is effective in the first interim or annual reporting period beginning after June 15, 2005. The Company currently accounts for stock options granted to employees and shares issued under our employee stock purchase plans in accordance with the intrinsic value method permitted under APB 25. The impact of adopting SFAS 123R cannot be accurately estimated at this time, as it will depend on the market value and the amount of share based awards granted in future periods. However, had we adopted SFAS 123R in a prior period, the impact would approximate the impact of SFAS 123 as described under stock-based compensation expense in the disclosure of pro forma net income.

In December 2004, FASB Staff Position No. 109-2, “Accounting and Disclosure Guidance for the Foreign Earnings Repatriation Provision within the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004” (“FAS 109-2”) was issued, providing guidance under SFAS 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes” for recording the potential impact of the repatriation provisions of the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 (“Jobs Act”), enacted on October 22, 2004. FAS 109-2 allows time beyond the financial reporting period of enactment to evaluate the effects of the Jobs Act before applying the requirements of FAS 109-2. Accordingly, we are evaluating the potential effects of the Jobs Act and have not adjusted our tax expense or deferred tax liability to reflect the requirements of FAS 109-2.

The Company currently classifies all investment securities as available-for-sale. Securities classified as available-for-sale are reported at fair value with unrealized gains and losses excluded from net income and included in other comprehensive income.

The available-for-sale securities have been in unrealized loss positions for less than one year. All short-term investments from prior years matured in 2004 with no unrealized loss remaining. Market values were determined for each individual security in the investment portfolio. The declines in value of these investments is primarily related to changes in interest rates and are considered to be temporary in nature. The contractual maturities of available-for-sale securities at December 31, 2004 ranged from 2005 to 2007 and the contractual maturities of available-for-sale securities at December 31, 2003 were all less than one year.

Depreciation expense for property and equipment was $1.1 million, $574,000 and $722,000 for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002 respectively.

Other purchased intangible assets, net, consist of the following (in thousands):

Purchased development technology is amortized over 5 years from the original purchase date, or until 2005. The annual amortization amount was $200,000 and the remaining amortization in 2005 will be $83,333.

The Company acquired certain equity investments for strategic objectives, during the year ended December 31, 2004. The non-marketable equity investments are accounted for using the equity method because the Company has significant influence over operating and financial policies of the investee. The Company records its proportionate share of the investees’ net income or loss on a one-quarter lag, as it is not practical to obtain financial information from these privately-owned investees prior to the issuance of the Company’s current period financial statements. Marketable equity investments are accounted for as available-for-sale securities with unrealized gain and loss included in other comprehensive income (loss) in stockholders’ equity.

The following table summaries the long-tem investments which are included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2004 (amounts in thousands):

The carrying value of the Ulead investment includes the cost of $5.7 million and an unrealized gain of $1.4 million.

In July 2003, the Company closed the sale of 3,220,000 shares of common stock, including the underwriter’ exercise of an over-allotment option, in an initial public offering at a price of $14.00 per share. The net proceeds were approximately $40.4 million after deducting the underwriting fee and other offering expenses, totaling $4.7 million.

As of December 31, 2004, the Company had reserved shares of authorized but unissued common stock for the following (in thousands):

During the year ended December 31, 2004, the Company announced a stock repurchase program pursuant to which it may purchase up to $10 million or 700,000 shares, of its outstanding common stock from time to time. The duration of the repurchase program is open-ended. Under the program, the Company could purchase shares of common stock through open market transactions at prices deemed appropriate by management. The timing and amount of repurchase transactions under this program depends on market conditions and corporate and regulatory considerations.

During the year ended December 31, 2004, $2.6 million of common stock, or 200,200 shares, were repurchased and retired.

During 1998, the Company established the 1998 Stock Option Plan covering employees, consultants and directors of the Company. Under the terms of the 1998 Stock Option Plan, as amended, incentive and nonstatutory stock options may be granted for up to 5,412,000 shares of the Company’s authorized but unissued common stock. Options issued under the 1998 Stock Option Plan generally have a maximum term of 10 years and vest over schedules determined by the Board of Directors. Options issued under the 1998 Stock Option Plan to stockholders owning 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock shall have a maximum term of five years from the date of grant.

Nonstatutory stock options may be granted to employees, consultants and directors at no less than 85% of the fair market value of the common stock as determined by the Board of Directors at the date of grant. Incentive stock options may be granted only to employees at the fair market value of the common stock at the date of the grant. Stock options granted to a person owning more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company must be granted with exercise prices equal to at least 110% of the fair market value of the common stock on the day of grant.

In connection with the Company’s IPO in 2003, the Company adopted the 2003 Stock Plan. The 2003 Stock Plan was adopted by the Board of Directors in January 2002 and approved by the stockholders in April 2002, and was amended by the Board of Directors in January 2003.

The 2003 Stock Plan authorized the grant of a total of 216,000 shares of common stock plus (a) any shares that have been reserved but not issued under the 1998 Stock Option Plan as of the effective date of the IPO and

(b) any shares returned to the 1998 Stock Option Plan on or after the effective date of the IPO as a result of termination of options or the repurchase of unvested restricted shares issued under the 1998 Stock Option Plan. In addition, the 2003 Stock Plan provides for annual increases in the number of shares available for issuance under the 2003 Stock Plan on the first day of each fiscal year, beginning with the fiscal year 2004, equal to the lesser of (i) 5% of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock on the first day of the applicable fiscal year, (ii) 1,082,000 shares or (iii) another amount as the Board of Directors may determine. The administrator determines the exercise price of options granted under the 2003 Stock Plan, but with respect to nonstatutory stock options intended to qualify as “performance-based compensation” within the meaning of Section 162(m) and all incentive stock options, the exercise price must be at least equal to the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. The term of an incentive stock option may not exceed ten years, except that with respect to any participant who owns 10% of the voting power of all classes of the Company’s outstanding capital stock, the term must not exceed five years and the exercise price must equal at least 110% of the fair market value on the grant date. The administrator determines the term of all other options. The terms of the 2003 Stock Plan allow the administrator to grant options at exercise prices that are below, equal to or above market.

The following is a summary of stock option activities for all the plans for the three years ended December 31, 2004 (in thousands, except per share amounts):

The following table summarizes the stock options outstanding and exercisable as of December 31, 2004 (in thousands, except per share amounts):

The weighted average fair value of options granted to employees in the three years ended December 31, 2004 is summarized in the following table, and were estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions:

As the Black-Scholes option valuation model requires the input of subjective assumptions, the resulting pro forma compensation cost may not be representative of that to be expected in future periods. The Company used the minimum value method to determine the fair value of options granted prior to its initial filing for IPO in January 2002 of a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933 relating to an initial public offering of the Company’s common stock. This method does not consider the expected volatility of the underlying stock, and is only available to non-public entities. Accordingly, the Company has used an estimated volatility factor of 90% for grants issued subsequent to the initial filing date of the registration statement and up to the IPO in July 2003. Subsequent to the July 2003, the volatility factor is calculated based on the fluctuation of Company’s stock price on the market as well as volatility of other companies in the same industry.

In July 2003, the Company commenced its 2003 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, which has an overlapping 24-month offering period, and includes four 6-month purchase periods. Purchases are to be made twice a year, in the months of May and November. The plan permits participants to purchase common stock at 85% of the lower of the fair market value of common stock at the beginning of an offering period, or at the end of purchase period, through payroll deduction of up to 15% of their eligible compensation. If the fair market value of common stock at the end of a purchase period is less than the fair market value at the beginning of the offering period, participants will be withdrawn from the current offering period following their purchase of shares on the purchase date and will be automatically re-enrolled in a new offering period. Participants may end their participation at any time during an offering period and will be refunded their payroll deduction to date. The weighted average fair value of each purchase option granted for the year ended December 31, 2004 was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions:

In connection with the grant of certain stock options to employees for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, the Company recorded deferred stock compensation within stockholders’ equity of ($165,000),

($171,000) and $2.3 million, respectively, representing forfeitures of stock compensation related to cancelled options in 2004 and 2003 and the difference between the fair market value of the common stock and the option exercise price of those options at the date of grant, net of adjustments for cancelled options in 2002. Such amount is presented as a reduction of stockholders’ equity and is amortized over the vesting period of the applicable options using an accelerated method of amortization under FASB Interpretation No 28.

The Company has established the 2003 Employee Stock Purchase Plan after the IPO. The 2003 Employee Stock Purchase Plan was adopted by the board of directors in January 2002 and the stockholders in April 2002, and was amended by the board in January 2003.

A total of 216,000 shares of common stock were made available-for-sale under the 2003 Employee Stock Purchase Plan. In addition, the plan provides for annual increases in the number of shares available for issuance under the plan on the first day of each fiscal year, beginning with the fiscal year 2004, equal to the lesser of (i) 1.5% of the outstanding shares of our common stock on the first day of the applicable fiscal year, (ii) 216,000 shares or (iii) another amount as the Board of Directors may determine.

The Company’s employees and employees of designated subsidiaries are eligible to participate in the 2003 Employee Stock Purchase Plan if they are customarily employed for at least 20 hours per week and more than five months in any calendar year. The plan permits participants to purchase common stock through payroll deductions of up to 15% of their eligible compensation which includes a participant’s base salary, bonuses and commissions, but excludes all other compensation. A participant may purchase a maximum of 5,000 shares during a six-month purchase period.

In March 2001, the Company granted a senior executive an option to purchase 162,000 shares of common stock. This option was early exercised with a promissory note at the time of grant, and the Company recorded a note receivable and a reduction in stockholder’s equity. The note bears interest at 5.07% per annum and is due on the earlier of March 22, 2006 or the first anniversary of the termination of services. The note is secured by the underlying stock and is with full recourse. The Company records interest income as interest accrues on the promissory note. All interest is due upon maturity of the note. The shares issued are subject to a repurchase right at the option of the Company. The repurchase right lapses over a four-year period in accordance with the vesting terms of the original option. As of December 31, 2004 and 2003, 31,000 and 72,000 shares respectively, were still subject to repurchase by the Company.

In June 2001, the Company granted to each of two directors of the Company options to purchase 27,000 shares of common stock. These options were early exercised with promissory notes in December 2001. The notes bear interest at 5.07% per annum and become payable in full upon the earlier of December 11, 2006 or the first anniversary of the termination of services with the Company. The notes are secured by the underlying stock and are full recourse. The Company records interest income as interest accrues on the promissory notes. The shares issued are subject to a repurchase right at the option of the Company. The repurchase right lapses in accordance with the vesting terms of the original options. As of December 31, 2004 and 2003, 7,000 and 14,000 shares respectively, were still subject to repurchase by the Company. During the year ended December 31, 2004, one director repaid the promissory note amount in full.

Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation filed June 17, 2003, each share of convertible preferred stock was convertible, at the option of the holder, into 0.54 shares of common stock. Upon

completion of the Company’s IPO in July 2003, all convertible preferred stock was converted into common stock, totaling 6,948,000 shares of common stock.

The significant components of income tax expense (benefit) for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002 are as follows (in thousands):

The provision for income taxes differs from the expected tax expense amount computed by applying the statutory federal income tax rate to income before taxes as follows:

As of December 31, 2004, the Company has federal research and development tax credit carryforwards of $437,000 which expire on various dates from 2023. The Company also has foreign tax credit carryforwards at December 31, 2004 of $3.5 million that expire starting 2006.

SFAS 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes” requires that a valuation allowance be established when it is more likely than not that all or a portion of a deferred tax asset will not be realized. A review of all positive and negative evidence needs to be considered, including the Company’s current and past performance, the market environment in which the Company operates, the utilization of past tax credits, length of carryback and carryforward periods and existing contracts that will result in future profits. The Internal Revenue Code contains provisions that may limit the net operating losses and tax credit carryforwards that may be utilized in any given year based on the occurrence of certain events, including a significant change in ownership interest.

During the fourth quarter of 2004, the Company reviewed its operating results of the recent years as well as the outlook for its future operations and concluded that it is more likely than not that all of its U.S. federal and state net deferred tax assets at December 31, 2004 will be fully realized. Based on this determination, approximately $1.1 million of valuation allowance brought forward from earlier years was reversed and recorded as a benefit for income taxes in the fourth quarter of 2004.

Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker, or decision-making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company’s chief operating decision maker is the Chief Executive Officer of the Company.

The Company has one operating segment: multimedia software. The Company sells its products primarily through OEMs and to end users through the Company’s websites and through retail channels. Sales of licenses to this software occur in three geographic locations, namely the United States, Europe and Asia. Revenues are based on the country in which the customer is located.

The following is a summary of revenue by sales channel, geographic region and product (in thousands):

The following is a summary of tangible long-lived assets by geographic region (in thousands):

As of December 31, 2004, future minimum commitments under operating leases are as follows (in thousands):

Rent expense was $745,000, $924,000 and $802,000 for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively.

In the normal course of business, the Company is involved in various legal claims, actions and complaints, including matters involving patent infringement and other intellectual property claims and various other risks. It is not possible to predict with certainty whether or not the Company will ultimately be successful in any of these legal matters, or if not, what the impact might be. InterVideo’s license agreements include certain warranties and indemnification provisions for claims from certain customers to InterVideo’s intellectual property. Such indemnification provisions are accounted for in accordance with SFAS No. 5. The indemnification is generally limited to the amount paid by the customer. To date, claims under such indemnification provisions have not been significant.

During the year ended December 31, 2004, the Company invested $765,000 in Appro Photoelectron Inc., (“Appro Photoelectron”), one of the Company’s customers. As of December 31, 2004, the Company’s investment totaled 6.4% ownership interest in Appro Photoelectron. During the year ended December 31, 2004, the Company derived revenue from Appro Photoelectron in the normal course of business and all transactions were on an arm-length basis. In 2004, total revenue earned from Appro Photoelectron were $155,000 and there was no revenue earned in 2003.

During the first quarter of 2005 the Company continued to invest in Ulead Systems, Inc. (“Ulead”), a leading developer of innovative video, imaging and DVD authoring software, accumulating a total shareholding percentage at 18.5 percent as of March 31, 2005.

On March 14, 2005, the Company announced the commencement of a tender offer to purchase an additional 30.1 to 65 percent of the issued shares of Ulead at 30 NTD (US$0.98) per share of Ulead common stock. The Company’s obligation to purchase the shares is subject to certain closing conditions, including the requirement that there have not been any material adverse change in the financial condition or business of Ulead. The tender offer is scheduled to expire on April 13, 2005.

Upon the successful completion of the tender offer, the transaction will be valued at between $23 and $49 million. The Company will own between 50.1 and 85 percent of the outstanding shares of Ulead, have a controlling interest in Ulead and, accordingly, will include Ulead in its consolidated financial statements from the date it obtains a controlling interest, currently anticipated to be April 13, 2005. The acquisition of Ulead will be accounted for as a step acquisition.

Pursuant to stock repurchase program announced in early 2004, the Company has continued to repurchase shares of common stock through open market transactions in March 2005, 61,500 shares of common stock totaling $669,000 were repurchased.

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. As described below under Evaluation of Internal Control over Financial Reporting, we identified material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting (as defined Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Accordingly, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that as a result of these material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Our internal control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance to our management and board of directors regarding the reliability, preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

A material weakness (within the meaning of PCAOB Auditing Standard No. 2) is a control deficiency, or aggregation of control deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood the risk that a material misstatement in financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by employees in the normal course of their work.

Our management is in the process of assessing the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2004, and this assessment, while not yet complete, identified the following material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting.

We expect to conclude its testing and evaluation of internal control over financial reporting and management’s assessment of such controls prior to filing our amended annual report on Form 10-K/A within the 45-day period provided by the exemptive order issued by the SEC on November 30, 2004. There can be no assurances that no further material weaknesses will be identified during this process. The Form 10-K/A will include management’s report and the reports of our independent registered public accounting firm, KPMG LLP, on our internal control over financial reporting.

In making its assessment of internal control over financial reporting, our management used the criteria issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control- Integrated Framework. Because of the material weaknesses described above, management’s report on internal control over financial reporting will indicate that, as of December 31, 2004, the Company's internal control over financial reporting was not effective based on those criteria. In addition, management expects that upon KPMG’s completion of its evaluation and testing of internal control over financial reporting, KPMG will issue an adverse opinion with respect to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting.

During the fourth quarter of the year ended December 31, 2004 we hired a Director of IT whose responsibility is to identify, design and implement the necessary best practice systems, controls and procedures to ensure our IT infrastructure is adequate to meet our current and future needs. Also during the fourth quarter we hired a Director of Internal Audit & Chief Compliance Officer to ensure adherence to Company policies and procedures, monitoring of remediation activities and on-going compliance with Sarbanes-Oxley requirements.

During the first quarter of 2005 we have taken the following steps to remediate the identified material weaknesses above:

There were no other significant changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by Rule 13a-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that occurred during the fourth fiscal quarter that has materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect our internal controls over financial reporting.

We have adopted a written code of ethics that applies to our Board of Directors and all of our employees, including our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principal accounting officer. A copy of such code of ethics is available free of charge upon written request to the Company’s principal executive offices, 46430 Fremont Boulevard, Fremont, CA 94538, attention Randall Bambrough.
