Directors Report for 2002
RoboGroup further holds an 82% interest in MemCall LLC, MemCall Inc. and MemCall Ltd. (collectively MemCall), through its Netherlands subsidiary, Eshed Robotec B.V. The Memcall companies were incorporated in 2001 in the U.S. and in Israel, respectively.
RoboGroup and its subsidiaries will be referred to in this Directors Report as the Company.
The Company operates through three business sectors. One sector focuses on the traditional business activities of the Company the education field. This sector includes the Companys research and development sections, the operations section, the marketing and sales of the Companys products as well as products manufactured by third parties to the training and education markets around the world and in Israel. The second sector includes the subsidiary YET, which is engaged in the development and manufacture of motion control products for the industrial market. The third sector comprises the startup company MemCall, which is developing new technology designed to shorten the length of time required to locate and retrieve information in computers and communications networks.
In 2002, the Education Sector continued to implement and execute a cost cutting plan that was initated in the last quarter of 2001. The plan covered all the entities in the sector, including our U.S. subsidiary and Computras. The plan was implemented in full in accordance with the work plan for 2002.
In April 2002, RoboGroup entered into an agreement to supply training systems for advanced production technologies to a vocational school network in South America, in an amount of approximately US$ 2 million. This transaction was the follow-on to an earlier transaction of RoboGroup which was completed several years ago, within which systems were supplied to 18 schools in the network. The delivery of the systems was completed in the third quarter of 2002.
In the third quarter of 2002, our e-learning activities were added to the Education Sector. In December 2001, the Company signed an agreement to provide an e-learning training system in consideration of over US$ 4 million. The e-learning system that is being developed under this agreement includes content packages relating to the Companys principal field of expertise in the development and production of technology training systems. The project is expected to be completed in the first half of 2003. The first delivery in the project was made in the third quarter of 2002, and the Company started recognizing revenues from this project. An additional delivery was made in the fourth quarter of 2002. The Company believes that the successful completion of the project may provide the foundation for a product line in the e-learning field.
In December 2002, Robogroup signed an agreement with Mentergy Ltd. for the acquisition of assets relating to the TrainNet activity (an interactive distance learning product via satellite or broadband communications). Pursuant to the agreement, the Company acquired, among other things, proprietary rights to the software, the right to use the name TrainNet and production files and engineering documentation for the product. The Company regards this transaction as an additional step in the expansion of its activities in the growing field of distance learning and e-learning. The Company believes that the combination between the acquired product and the products developed by the Company will provide its customers with unique solutions for distance learning.

Directors Report for 2002
In the first quarter of 2003, the Company signed several contracts with customers with regard to the TrainNet product.
In 2002, Computras was integrated into the operations of the Education Sector, and has undergone extensive cutbacks for the purpose of adjusting to the Israeli business environment, as an integrator of learnware in educational institutions and as the training franchisee for the Computer for Every Child project.
In 2002, YET delivered approximately US$ 4.2 million of products and services to YEC. The working plan approved by the Board of Directors of YET for 2002 forecasted a pre-tax profit of approximately US$ 1.75 million. YETs pre-tax profits for the year 2002 amounted to approximately US$ 1.6 million (approximately NIS 7.4 million).
In mid 2001, the shareholders of YET reached an agreement whereby YET would start to develop new independent marketing channels for the sale of its products and develop products that will be sold under the YET brand name. In 2002 the basic development of the XtraDrive (Advanced Server Driver) was completed and YET continued with the advanced stages of the development of the XtraDrive, which will be sold under the YET brand name.
In 2002, YET also initiated marketing activities with the cooperation of YEC in Europe and the U.S. in order to establish a presence in these markets and entered into negotiations with a European company and U.S. companies in regard to private label agreements. In addition, YET continued to market YECs products in Israel during 2002.
Since YECs marketing system in Europe is undergoing fundamental changes, the progress of the building of a marketing system that is related to YEC has been delayed. In early 2003, YET began looking for independent distributors to market its products in Europe.
In early 2003, it was made clear to YET that YEC would not distribute YET products in the U.S., and that YET will have to establish an independent marketing network there. Action on this matter has been started.
In 2002, YET made preliminary sales (in immaterial amounts) of the XtraDrive product to several clients in Europe and in the U.S., as well as preliminary sales (also in immaterial amounts) of the YEC product line in Israel.

Directors Report for 2002
In May 2000, RoboGroup entered into a service agreement with YET under which YET pays RoboGroup for services and management fees. The sum of the payment is determined annually by mutual consent. In January 2002 a service agreement was signed between RoboGroup and YET for 2002, under which YET paid RoboGroup approximately NIS 1.2 million for services and management fees. In January 2003 a service agreement was signed between RoboGroup and YET for 2003, under which YET will pay RoboGroup approximately NIS 0.9 million for services and management fees.
MemCall is engaged in the development of a new search technology which, would potentially reduce the time for locating and retrieving data in computers and communications networks. The result of the new technology is expected to be a development of electronic semiconductor chips.
In 2002, MemCall continued its efforts to raise capital from outside sources. The depressed condition of the global networking market has significantly reduced MemCalls market potential. In addition, the condition of the capital markets is still bad, and MemCalls management is therefore unable to estimate whether, when or under what conditions it will be able to raise capital for its operations.
In early 2001, RoboGroups Board of Directors determined two milestones for completing an investment of US$ 2.5 million in MemCall. In November 2001, RoboGroups Board of Directors acknowledged that MemCall met the two milestones.
In May 2002, RoboGroups Board of Directors approved an additional US$ 1 million investment in MemCall, subject to several milestones being met by the end of 2002. In January 2003, RoboGroups Board of Directors approved an additional investment of US$ 0.75 million, while examining the investment during the course of the period in accordance with MemCalls progress toward the milestones that were determined. The additional financing pursuant to these two resolutions will be provided in accordance with MemCalls letter of undertaking which provides, among other things, that the sum of the investment will be either repaid by MemCall on specified dates or, alternatively, converted into additional share capital in MemCall at RoboGroups discretion.
Accordingly, RoboGroups investment in MemCall is expected to total approximately US$ 4.25 million, of which US$ 2 million was invested in the form of share capital, and the balance in the form of a US$ 2.25 million convertible loan.
RoboGroups investment in MemCall in 2002 amounted to the total sum of approximately NIS 7.6 million (US$ 1.6 million) net, after deduction of the Chief Scientists contribution, as specified below. RoboGroups aggregate investment in MemCall, as of December 31, 2002, amounted to approximately US$ 3.3 million. All of the investments in MemCall are recorded by the Company as current expenses in the quarter in which they were made (with regard to R&D expenses, see Note 5 to the financial statements).

Directors Report for 2002
In addition to the above-mentioned resolution regarding the enlargement of the investment, RoboGroups Board of Directors passed the following resolutions in January 2003 regarding the continued operation of MemCall: (a) To transfer MemCalls headquarters to the State of California in the U.S.A. where, to the Companys best knowledge, the largest concentration of MemCalls target markets is located; (b) To change MemCalls business model, while emphasizing strategic alliances with leading manufacturers/marketers in the global silicon market; (c) To appoint Mr. Bill Eichen, a California resident, as CEO and a director of MemCall; Who will also be the director of Memcall; and (d) To implement a reorganization plan, which includes staff reductions. In addition, MemCall will continue to develop its technology and intellectual assets.
MemCalls retiring CEO, Mr. Alon Shacham, will continue to contribute to the company as an outside consultant. In addition, Mr. Amnon Yacoby was appointed as Chairman of MemCalls Board of Directors succeeding Mr. Rafael Aravot.
In the third quarter of 2002, MemCall received the approval of the Office of the Chief Scientist of the Israeli Ministry of Industry and Trade (the Chief Scientist) for a grant in the total sum of approximately NIS 4.6 million, which constitutes 50% of a total budget of approximately NIS 9.2 million which was approved for MemCall by the Chief Scientist pursuant to a development plan that was submitted by the company under the R&D Law. The approved budget is for the period January-December 2002. MemCall has asked for, and received, the Chief Scientists approval to extend the period of this budget until the end of March 2003, the total sum amounted to NIS 8 million while NIS 4 million or 50% out of the budget were given as grant. Until the date of this report, MemCall received the total sum of NIS 3.6 million.
In the third quarter of 2002, MemCall received a preliminary quantity of test chips from an outside contractor who manufactured the chips for the company . The test chip is a piece of silicon (a chip), designed to test basic functions in the planning of MemCalls first planned product (GSP1), and is not a product in itself. The examination process of the test chips that were received revealed significant problems with the outside manufacturers production process. The result of these problems was that only a certain percentage of the functions which should have been tested, were actually tested by MemCall. MemCall intends to develop other manufacturing partnerships as the program develops.
The space in RoboGroups building in Rosh HaAyin that is not occupied by the Company is leased to three outside tenants. In 2002, the Company recorded a total of approximately US$ 600 thousand in rental payments from these tenants.

Directors Report for 2002
The majority of the products developed and manufactured by the Company are for export. The Company markets such products through a network of dozens of sub-agents throughout the world (The agent for the U.S. and Canada is a subsidiary).
The Company markets its products and complementary products to the technological and scientific educational market in Israel though its subsidiaries RTL and Computras.
The Companys e-learning products are marketed both to the educational sector, such as education ministries, school networks and universities, and the private sector, such as companies and organizations that need to perform internal employee training.
Until the middle of 2001, YET only operated in the Japanese market, selling its products exclusively through YEC. Following a resolution passed by YETs Board of Directors in the middle of 2001 to open its markets to additional external customers, YET recruited a manager of marketing and business development to develop the marketing channels in the U.S., a manager of marketing and business development to develop the marketing channels in Europe and the Far East, and a sales and marketing officer for developing marketing channels in Israel.
In 2002, YET initiated marketing activities with the cooperation of YEC in Europe and the U.S. in order to penetrate these markets with a product developed by the Company. In addition, YET continued marketing YEC products in Israel. YET is seeking independent distributors to market its products in Europe and has begun to establish an independent marketing network in the U.S.
The main market for the Education Sectors products is educational institutions and research and development institutes, which purchase the products for educational purposes. The budgets of such institutions are influenced by decisions of external administrative bodies (government education authorities, local educational departments, etc.).
F-8
Directors Report for 2002
In addition, the products developed by the Education Sector are directed at a narrow section of the educational market, i.e., the market for science and technology education.
The Education Sector operates in the hi-tech industry, which is characterized by technological innovation. In order to maintain the Companys position in this field, it must invest resources in upgrading existing products and developing new products, with the risk that other manufacturers, some of which have greater resources than the Company, will preempt the Company in the development of competitive systems.
Approximately 12% of the Education Sectors total sales in 2002 were to a large number of clients in the Israeli market, including municipal authorities and educational institutions, which are mostly funded by the Israeli Ministry of Education. Consequently, the scope and structure of the portion of the Israeli Ministry of Education budget that is devoted to the purchase of science and technology equipment in the Israeli market has a large effect on the Education Sectors sales in Israel.
So long as the only or major customer of YET products is YEC, which holds 50% of YETs shares, this is a risk for YET. With the opening of new global marketing channels for YETs products, the aforesaid risk to YETs activity is expected to diminish.
Competition in the Israeli market. To the best of the Companys knowledge, one other Israeli company competes with the Company with respect to certain of its independently-manufactured product lines.
Competition worldwide. The Company has competitors in all the markets in which it exports its products. The Companys competitors are local manufacturers, although certain manufacturers who compete with the Company operate worldwide, some of which have greater financial resources than the Company.
The Companys ability to compete successfully is dependent on the quality and pricing of its products in comparison with those of its competitors, as well as the resources that are available to the Company for investment in development and marketing.
Significant competition exists both in Israel and worldwide for the motion control products developed by YET from large competitors such as Siemens, Mitsubishi, Rockwell and others.
F-9
Directors Report for 2002
Products manufactured by the Company are adjusted to components made by various manufacturers (for example, motors, transmissions, electronic components, etc.). Should the prices of these components to which the Companys products have been adjusted increase significantly, or for some reason should the Company be unable to purchase them and be forced to effect changes in its systems to adjust them to new components, the Company believes this adjustment will not involve significant development costs.
YET is dependent on YEC as a supplier of components for its XtraDrive product.
a. | Currency Risks |
The majority of the Companys products are exported, and as a result, the bulk of the Companys income is received in foreign currency. As a result of the nature of the Companys operations, the Company is subject to risks from changes in the exchange rates of foreign currencies (mainly US$ and Japanese YEN). The Company undertakes the following precautions in order to limit its exposure:
1. | Daily monitoring of changes in the exchange rates of the various currencies as well as factors that are bound to influence such currencies. |
2. | An evaluation of the Companys quarterly position with respect to the general exposure to changes in the various currencies. |
3. | Establishing foreign currency linked loans for the financing of its investments in its building. |
Notwithstanding these precautions, the Company cannot insure full protection against foreign currency risks, and the Company is exposed to exchange rate fluctuations between various foreign currencies and between the foreign currencies and the Israeli shekel.
b. | Interest and Index Risks |
Although the majority of the Companys income is in foreign currency, the Company does not enter into specific hedging contracts against the exposure due to changes of interest and index rates. However, the Company is accustomed to investing a portion of its monetary balances in accordance with its periodic evaluations with respect to expectations in the areas of interest and index.
In 2002, the Company reduced its monetary balances that are invested in securities. As of December 31, 2002, the balance of the Companys securities portfolio was of immaterial value. In the event the Company will decide to increase its investment in securities in the future, it will be exposed to fluctuations in the prices of securities in its investment portfolio.

c. | The Responsible Officer |
The Companys chief financial officer is responsible for managing the Companys market risks.
d. | Supervision and Application of Policy |
Company management and the finance committee of the Board of Directors constantly monitors the extent of the Companys exposure to market risks, and decides accordingly if it is necessary to modify its risk management policy and, if necessary, adopt protective measures.
e. As of December 31, 2002 the Company had no outstanding futures contracts. The Company did not enter into any futures contracts in 2002.
The Company does not have a policy with respect to donations and is not committed to make any donations in the future.
The Companys backlog of orders at December 31, 2002 consists of approximately NIS 20.7 million compared to approximately NIS 19.6 million as of December 31, 2001.
2. | The Financial Position of the Company |
a) | The Companys assets as of December 31, 2002 totaled approximately NIS 106.2 million, compared to approximately NIS 102.6 million at December 31, 2001. |
The increase in the Companys assets resulted from a rise in cash and cash equivalents in the total sum of approximately NIS 13.3 million, which was mostly offset against a decrease in customer balances in the sum of NIS 5.2 million, a decrease in inventories in the total sum of approximately NIS 0.6 million, and a decrease in short term investments in the total sum of approximately NIS 1.7 million. |
b) | The Companys equity was approximately NIS 50 million as of December 31, 2002, compared with approximately NIS 46.4 million as of December 31, 2001. The increase in equity derived mainly from a profit in the amount of approximately NIS 3.4 million in 2002. |

Directors Report for 2002
The Companys revenues in 2002 totaled approximately NIS 87.8 million, compared with approximately NIS 87.6 million in 2001. The increase in revenues in 2002 was attributable to an increase in revenues in the education field from an e-learning project for which revenues of approximately NIS 11.3 million were recognized this year and from an increase of approximately NIS 4.5 million in revenues from development services of a proportionately consolidated company. On the other hand, the Companys revenues from the sale of Light Machine products decreased by approximately NIS 3.5 million, and the sales of the products of a proportionately consolidated company decreased by approximately NIS 11.6 million.
The gross profit from the Companys products and other products that are marketed by the Company was, in 2002, approximately 52% of revenues, as compared with approximately 40% in 2001. The increase in the gross profit rate resulted mainly from a different product mix and an increase in revenues from development services and royalties of a proportionately consolidated company. Operating expenses in 2002 totaled approximately NIS 41.4 million as compared with approximately NIS 41.6 million in 2001.
In 2002, research and development expenses, net, increased by approximately NIS 0.4 million, compared with 2001, mainly as a result of increased investments in the development activities of MemCall which totaled approximately NIS 6.1 million in 2002, compared with approximately NIS 5.1 million in 2001. In addition the investments in the development activities of e-learning increased in the amount of NIS 0.4 million, and the development expenses of YET increased by NIS 0.9 million. On the other hand, the investments in the development activities of the Education Sector decreased by approximately NIS 1.9 million Marketing and selling expenses in 2002 decreased by approximately NIS 1.6 million compared with 2001, mainly due to a decrease in the marketing and selling expenses of the Education Sector.
General and administrative expenses in 2002 increased by approximately NIS 1 million compared with 2001, mainly due to salary provisions for directors.
Profits from ordinary operations in 2002 totaled approximately NIS 4.4 million compared with a loss from ordinary operations that totaled approximately NIS 1.5 million in 2001.
The Companys financing expenses, net, in 2002 totaled approximately NIS 1.4 million, compared with financing income of approximately NIS 2 million in 2001. The financing expenses derived mainly from interest and the erosion of loans in the amount of approximately NIS 2 million which were borrowed for financing the building, and differences in exchange rates which were offset mainly by charges in respect of interest in the current operation of the Company. Other income in 2002 amounted to approximately NIS 1.7 million compared with other income of approximately NIS 2.8 million in 2001. The decrease in other income in the amount of approximately NIS 1.1 million was mainly due to a decrease in net income from leasing space in RoboGroups building of approximately NIS 1.1 million in 2002. The Companys net profit in 2002 was approximately NIS 3.4 million as compared with a loss of approximately NIS 2.4 million in 2001. The net income of approximately NIS 3.4 million resulted mainly from the Education Sector, in the sum of approximately NIS 7.3 million, income from the building in the sum of approximately NIS 2.1 million, and the profits of a proportionately consolidated company in the sum of approximately NIS 1.6 million, which were partly offset by investments in the development activity of MemCall in the sum of approximately NIS 7.6 million.

The sum of the distribution requested to be approved was NIS 2,140 thousand. The Companys principal creditors have consented to the distribution in principle. According to the instructions of the District Court, RoboGroup has retained an independent CPA to provide an opinion on the Companys solvency. |
9. | General Meeting of the Companys Shareholders |
An annual general meeting of RoboGroups shareholders was held on December 17, 2002. The General Meeting approved the reelection of RoboGroups directors, approved the award of a grant to two managers and directors of the Company, in the total sum of US$ 80,000, approved the Companys stock option plans for employees and directors as mentioned above, approved the undertaking of indemnification and exemption from liability for directors and officers as mentioned above, and the appointment of the Companys CPAs. |
10. | External Factors |
The changes in the world economy and the terrorist attacks in the U.S. on September 11, 2001 impacted and continue to impact the stock prices on stock exchanges throughout the world and in the U.S. in particular, and in this context also affected the stock prices of RoboGroups securities traded on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange as well as on the Nasdaq Stock Market. |
The
continued slowdown of the world economy and the terrorist attacks in the U.S. on September 11, 2001, have affected the Companys business in the following markets: |
F-16
Directors Report for 2002
| A slowdown has been observed in the market for motion control products throughout the world. A more substantial slowdown was observed in the upper segment of the market (e.g. machines for the semi-conductor industries). YEC ,which continues to be YETs sole customer,suffered a significant drop in the sales of these product lines. This has also affected YETs business. |
| A substantial slowdown was observed in the networking market, which is one of the central potential markets for MemCall products. This has brought about a reduction in the potential market, a slower penetration of new technologies and products into the market, as well as a delay in investment activity in the market. The slowdown in the target markets for MemCall products and the significant decline in venture capital investments in new enterprises have had an adverse effect on MemCall. |
| In the global education market, institutional investments in education infrastructures declined as a result of thelack of economic resources for institutional entities in general and for the education institutions in particular, due to the slowdown in the world economy on the one hand and the increasing investments in security and safety markets on the other hand. The decrease in financial resources available for the products of the Education Sector has brought about a reduction of its potential sales. |
| The Israeli education market has suffered for some time from a shortage in resources for investment in infrastructures, educational software and laboratories for science and technology education. The additional cutbacks in the education budget are expected to substantially reduce the investments in these fields. |

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS REPORT
To the Shareholders of RoboGroup T.E.K LTD.
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of RoboGroup T.E.K LTD. (hereinafter - the Company) as of December 31, 2002 and 2000, and the consolidated balance sheets as of the same dates and the related statements of operations, statements of changes in shareholders equity and statements of cash flows - for each of the three years ended December 31, 2002. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements, based on our audit.
We have not audited the financial statements of the consolidated companies whose joint assets represent approximately 29% and 24% of the total consolidated assets as of December 31, 2002 and 2000 respectively and whose joint revenues represent approximately 41%, 24%, and 38% of the total consolidated revenues for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2000 and 1999 respectively. The financial statements of those companies were audited by other independent public accountants whose reports have been furnished to us and our opinion, insofar as it relates to amounts included for those companies, is based solely on the reports of those other public accountants.
We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, including those prescribed by the Auditors (Mode of Performance) Regulations, 1973. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance that 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 audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, based on our examination and on the reports of the other public accountants referred to above, the above mentioned financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position - of the Company and consolidated - as of December 31, 2002 and 2000 and the results of operations, changes in shareholders equity, and cash flows - of the Company and consolidated - for each of the three years ended December 31, 2002, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in Israel and in the United States (as applicable to the financial statements of the Company, such accounting principles are practically identical in the said countries, save for the measurement in terms of a constant purchasing power, which became an accepted accounting practice in Israel during a period of hyperinflation and save for certain matters summarized in note 28). It is also our opinion that the above mentioned financial statements have been prepared in conformity with the Securities Regulations (Preparation of Annual Financial Statements), 1993.
As explained in note 2, the above mentioned financial statements are presented in adjusted values adjusted to changes in the general purchasing power of the Israeli currency, in accordance with opinions of the institute of Certified Public Accountants in Israel.

Note 2 Significant Accounting Policies |

|
A. |
Adjusted Financial Statements |
|
|
|
|
|
1. General |
|
|
|
|
|
The financial statements are prepared on the basis of historical cost adjusted for changes in the general purchasing power of the Israeli currency, in accordance with an Opinion of The Institute of Certified Public Accountants in Israel. |
|
|
|
|
|
Amounts in the financial statements, including comparative amounts, have been adjusted for changes in the Israeli Consumer Price Index (hereinafter CPI) according to the CPI published for December 2002. |
|
|
|
|
|
The term cost in these financial statements means cost in adjusted New Israeli Shekels (NIS). |
|
|
|
|
|
The adjusted values of non-monetary items do not necessarily represent their economic values, but merely show their historical cost adjusted for changes in the purchasing power of the Israeli currency. |
|
|
|
|
|
A summary of the Companys nominal figures, on which the adjusted financial statements are based, is given in Note 27. |
|
|
|
|
|
The adjusted consolidated financial statements at December 31, 2002 and for the year then ended, have been translated into U.S. dollars (hereinafter the dollar) purely for the convenience of American readers. The translation was made according to the representative exchange rate of the dollar to NIS on December 31, 2002 (US$1 = NIS 4.737). The translated dollar amounts should not be construed as amounts receivable or payable in dollars or convertible into dollars. |
|
|
|
|

|
|

Adjustment policies and supplementary data (contd) |
|
|
|
|
|
B. Statements of Operations: |
|
|
|
|
|
Items in the statements of operations are adjusted for changes in the CPI as follows: |
|
|
|
|
|
Amounts relating to non-monetary items (e.g. depreciation and changes in inventories) and certain provisions (e.g. liability for termination of employee/employer relationship) are adjusted on the same basis as the related balance sheet item. |
|
|
|
|
|
Other revenue and expense items, except for financing items, are adjusted on the basis of changes in the CPI between the date of the transaction and balance sheet date. |
|
|
|
|
|
The net financing item is separated from the other revenue and expense items and is expressed as real financing revenues and expenses, including the write-down of monetary items. |
|
|
|
|
B. |
Principles of Consolidation |
|
|
|
|
|
The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and those of its subsidiaries (consolidated companies). These financial statements also include the Companys portion (mainly 50%) of the assets, liabilities, income and expenses of companies owned jointly. |
|
|
|
|
|
Significant inter-company balances and transactions (including unrealized internal profits) have been eliminated for the purpose of consolidation. |
|
|
|
|
C. |
Recognition of Income |
|
|
|
|
|
Revenues from the sales of products dependent on installation are recognized on the conclusion of the installation. For contracts under which the Company is entitled to revenue after the execution of defined stages of the transaction without a liability to complete, the revenue is recognized with the entitling delivery. Revenues from the sales of shelf products are recognized on delivery to the customer. Revenues from the execution of work ordered are recognized on its completion and only when there is no significant uncertainty of the customers acceptance of the goods and the receipt of the consideration. |
|
|
|
|
|
Revenues from development services are recognized upon completion of the development, and in accordance with the terms of the related contracts. |
|
|
|
|
|
Revenues from the grant of production licenses are recognized upon fulfilling the terms of the commitments under the contract. |
|
|
|
|
|
Revenues from the sale of software rights are recognized when the rights are transferred to the customer, when payment has been determined, collection is probable and the Company has no liabilities due to the sale. |
|
|
|
|
|
If substantial commitments exist for additional performance, such as software development, software adjustment, integration or installation, revenues are usually recognized in accordance with the percentage of completion, based on an estimate of the proportionate part of the work that has been performed. |

|
|
|

|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|

|
|
|
Until December 31, 2001, all the consolidated companies operating abroad were an extension of the Company. Accordingly, their assets and liabilities has been translated into NIS at the exchange rates in effect on balance sheet date, except for non-monetary items which were translated at historical rates and adjusted for changes in the CPI. |
|
|
|
|
|
Revenue and expense items were translated at the average monthly exchange rate in effect at the time of the transaction and adjusted for changes in the CPI. |
|
|
|
|
|
Starting in 2002, because of changes in the nature of activity of a consolidated company abroad due to, among other things, the receipt of a commitment from banks in its jurisdiction to be given credit lines, and the growing trend an increase in the consolidated companys activities that refer to output not originating from the parent company, the consolidated company became, in practice, an autonomous entity, and the U.S. dollar became its functional currency. Therefore, the subsidiarys financial statements as of December 31, 2002 and for the year ending on that date have been translated according to closing rates, and translation differences in the sum of approximately NIS 122 thousands and have been attributed to a translation of foreign currency differences capital fund. |

|
|
|
L. |

The deferred tax is calculated according to the liability method. In this respect, the Company recognizes tax benefits receivable where the expectation of realization is more likely than not. Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates which are expected to be in effect at the time of realization, as far as is known at the time of the preparation of the financial statements. |

|
L. Deferred Taxes (contd) |
|
|
|
|
|
The Company and a proportionately consolidated company have surpluses future tax benefits emanating from tax exempt income as an approved enterprise. The distribution of a dividend out of such income would give rise to the imposition of corporation tax at the rate of 20% in respect to that income. If such dividends are distributed, tax expenses will be recorded in the statement of operations. It is the intention of the Company and the proportionately consolidated company to reinvest its tax exempt income. Accordingly, there is no provision for deferred taxes in respect of tax exempt income. |
|
|
|
|
|
In the calculation of deferred taxes, taxes which might be imposed upon the distribution of dividends by proportionately consolidated companies were not taken into account, because it is the Companys policy not to distribute dividends which would increase the groups tax liability. |
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
The Company engages in forward foreign currency transactions in order to minimize the risks inherent in changes in exchange rates in respect of commitments to sell products in currencies other than U.S. or Israeli. Profits or losses arising from such changes in exchange rates are recorded in the statement of operations, as incurred, and the premium or discount resulting from such transactions is amortized over the term of the contract. |
|
|
|
|
|
The Company has implemented the directives of FAS 133 and FAS 138, according to which any financial derivatives should be stated in the assets and liabilities of a balance sheet on the basis of fair value. |

Q. |
Changes in Accounting Policy for the Recognition of Income in the Statement of Operations |
|
|
|
|
|
In December 1999, the SEC published SAB 101 The Recognition of Income in Financial Statements (hereinafter the Standard), which summarized the SECs commentaries regarding the application of generally accepted accounting principles with respect to the recognition of income in financial statements. The Company had initially adopted this Standard in its financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2001. The main effect on the Company due to adopting the Standard relates to the deferral of the recognition of income from the sale of some of the Companys products until the date of their installation. Prior to the publication of the Standard, the Company recognized the income from these products on delivery to the customer. The change in accounting treatment is manifested in the statement of operations in the year 2000 by an accumulated effect at the beginning of the year, relating to prior years. |
|
|
|
|
R. |
Earnings Per Share |
|
|
|
|
|
The basic earnings per share are calculated on the basis of a weighted average of the issued and paid-up shares during the year, with no accounting for possible dilution. |
|
|
|
|
|
The fully diluted earnings per share include the effect of a possible dilution from options given to employees. |
|
|
|
|
S. |
Reclassification |
|
|
|
|
|
Certain comparative figures have been reclassified in order to adjust the presentation of data in the reported year. |

In October 2001 the Israel Accounting Standards Board issued Israel Accounting Standard 12 which deals with discontinuing the adjustment of financial statements and Israel Accounting Standard 13 concerning the effect of changes in the rates of exchange of foreign currencies. Israel Accounting Standard 14, which deals with interim financial reporting, was published in August 2002, and Israel Accounting Standard 15, which concerns the impairment of assets, was published in December 2002. |
|
|
|
|
|
Israel Accounting Standard 12 deals with discontinuing the adjustment of financial statements to inflation in Israel. Pursuant to this standard, the adjustment of financial statements to inflation in Israel will be discontinued as of January 1, 2003. The Company will continue to draw up adjusted financial statements until December 31, 2002 , pursuant to Opinion 36 of the Institute of Certified Public Accountants in Israel. The adjusted figures in the financial statements as of December 31, 2002 shall be the basis for financial statements in nominal terms as of January 1, 2003 .. |
|
|
|
|
|
Israel Accounting Standard 13 permits a company to continue adjusting its financial statements to changes in foreign currency exchange rates pursuant to Section 29(a) of Opinion 36 of the Institute of Certified Public Accountants in Israel, until the Israel Accounting Standards Board publishes a new standard on the subject. This standard requires a disclosure of the reasons for the presentation of the financial statements in a foreign currency. The standard further requires a disclosure of the reasons for any change in the reporting currency. |

Note 2 - Significant Accounting Policies (contd) |
||
|
|
|
|
On December 31, 2002, the Israel Accounting Standards Board decided, in Standard 17, to defer the effective dates of Standards 12 and 13 to January 1, 2004. |
|
|
|
|
|
The objective of Standard 14, which deals with interim financial reporting, is to prescribe the minimum content of an interim financial report and to prescribe the principles for recognition and measurement in the financial statements for an interim period. This Standard, which is based on International Accounting Standard (IAS) No. 34, Interim Financial Reporting, supersedes Opinion 43 issued by the Institute of Certified Public Accountants in Israel, Interim Financial Reporting, and Opinion 60 which amends Opinion 43 with regard to the elimination of disclosures on nominal figures in interim financial statements. This Standard becomes operative for financial statements covering periods beginning on or after January 1, 2003. |
|
|
|
|
|
Standard 15, which concerns the impairment of assets, is based on IAS No. 36, and prescribes the accounting treatment of an impairment of assets and of a reversal of such impairment, including investments in joint ventures that are not subsidiaries, goodwill which derives from the acquisition of subsidiaries and fair value adjustments. The Standard applies to financial statements for periods beginning on or after January 1, 2003. The effective date of Standard 15 was deferred by the Israel Accounting Standards Board to February 2, 2003. |
|
|
|
|
|
In the Companys estimation, the new accounting standards specified above will have no material effect on its results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. |

Exchange Rates and Basis of Linkage |

|
|
|
|
Balances in, or linked to, foreign currency are stated in the financial statements at the representative rates of exchange in effect at balance sheet date, as published by The Bank of Israel. Balances linked to the CPI are included in the balance sheets according to the latest index published prior to balance sheet date. |

B. Supplementary Information |
|
(1) In 2000 the Company, through a consolidated company, began establishing a company by the name of MemCall LLC (82% owned) (hereinafter: MemCall) that was registered in Delaware, USA in March 2001. |
|
|
|
|
|
MemCall is engaged in the development of a technology which is applicable to a variety of computer systems, and which could significantly shorten the time required for the location and retrieval of data in a computers memory. The outcome of the new technology is expected to be the development of an electronic memory chip. |
|
|
|
|
|
In early 2001 RoboGroups Board of Directors determined two milestones for completing an investment of US$2.5 million in MemCall. In November 2001, RoboGroups Board of Directors acknowledged that MemCall met the two milestones. |
|
|
|
|
|
In May 2002, RoboGroups Board of Directors approved an additional US$1 million investment in MemCall, subject to several milestones being met by the end of 2002. In January 2003, RoboGroups Board of Directors approved an additional investment of US$0.75 million, while examining the investment during the course of the period in accordance with MemCalls progress toward the milestones that were determined. The additional financing (pursuant to these two resolutions) will be provided in accordance with MemCalls letter of undertaking which provides, among other things, that the sum of the investment will be either repaid by MemCall on specified dates or, alternatively, converted into additional share capital in MemCall, at RoboGroups discretion. According to this last resolution, RoboGroups investment in MemCall is expected to total approximately US$4.25 million, of which US$2 million were invested in share capital, and the balance in a convertible loan. |
|
|
|
|
|
RoboGroups investment in MemCall in 2002 amounted to the total sum of approximately NIS 7.7 million (US$1.6 million). RoboGroups aggregate investment in MemCall, as of December 31, 2002, amounted to approximately US$3.3 million. |
|
|
|
|
|
The investment was used primarily for the development activity of Memcall. |

Note 17 - Share Capital |

|
|
|
|||
|
1. |
Programs for issuing shares to directors and options to employees were performed as follows: |
|||
|
|
|
|
||
|
(1.1) |
On March 2, 1997, 700,000 shares were issued to a trustee on behalf of seven directors who are shareholders at a total value of NIS 1.3 million (NIS 1.96 - per share par value NIS 0.5 in December 2002 adjusted NIS according to the share price at the approval date). The shares were paid for by means of a loan in the same amount that was provided to the Directors by its consolidated company, Robotec Technologies Ltd. |
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The loan is linked to the CPI, carries 2-4% interest and is guaranteed only by a pledge of the above mentioned shares that are held by the trustee until the repayment of the loan by the directors shareholders. |
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The right to the shares accumulates over a five year period starting January 1, 1997 so that every year each beneficiary will be entitled to receive up to 20% of the total number of shares that were issued to the trustee on the beneficiarys behalf (December 31, 2000 700,000 shares). |
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
During the years 2000 and 2001, the interested parties fully repaid the loans. Upon repayment of the loan, 700,000 shares that were held by the trustee were transferred to the seven directors. |
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
(1.2) |
On February 9, 1998, 405,000 options were issued to a trustee on behalf of 35 employees of the Company who were not interested parties at an exercise price in NIS equal to U.S.$ 0.50 per share, according to the share price at the approval date. |
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The right to exercise the options accrues gradually so that in the first year each grantee is entitled to exercise an amount equal to 40% and in each subsequent year that right increases by an additional 20% of the total number of options that were issued to the trustee on the beneficiarys behalf (in 2001 100%). Exercise of the options is conditional on the beneficiary being employed by the Company or its subsidiary under certain rules set by the plan. The right to exercise the option will expire on December 31, 2006. |

|
(1.3) |
On November 13, 2000 the Companys Board of Directors approved a plan for allocating 1.5 million options to directors of RoboGroup and employees of the Company. In June 2001 the plan was cancelled by the Board of Directors. |
|
|
|

(1.4) |
On December 20, 2001, the General Meeting of Shareholders approved the allotment to an interested party and a former advisor of the company, of 12,500 options for the purchase of ordinary shares of RoboGroup Ltd. of NIS 0.5 par value. The exercise price is $ 4.07 for each option. |
|
|
|
|
2. |
On November 11, 2002 the Companys Board of Directors approved a plan to allot 1,270,000 options to buy ordinary shares of the Company of par value NIS 0.5 each in consideration for an exercise price equal to $0.91 per share. The plan includes an allotment of 570,000 options to directors of the Company, which was approved by the meeting of the audit committee of October 29, 2002 and by the Companys general meeting on December 17, 2002.

C. Composition of Deferred Taxes
|
Deferred taxes arising from timing differences in assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2002 and 2001, result mainly from social benefits to employees (provisions for vacation and severance pay). |
|
|
|
The Company did not create income tax receivables on losses carried forward due to the uncertainty of realization. |

Tax rates at which the taxes were calculated: |
|
|
|
Current taxes 22% - 36%
(see para. G.)
|
|
|
|
In a proportionately consolidated company, the tax rate that was taken into account for the calculation of deferred taxes was 22%, which is the weighted tax rate that is expected to apply upon utilization of the benefits due to the approved enterprise (See note 25G). |
|
|
|
The Company and consolidated companies have carry forward tax losses, which can be utilized in 2003 amounting to approximately NIS 1 million and NIS 11 million, respectively. |
|
|
|
The American consolidated companys carry forward loss can be utilized between 2005 and 2018. |
|
|
G. |
Certain investments in fixed assets made by proportionally consolidated company have been granted an approved enterprise status subject to the law. The company chose the alternative income course, accordingly income from the approved enterprise will be exempt from taxes for two years after which a reduced tax rate of 20% will be enacted for the remaining benefit period. The benefit period is a 10 year period beginning in the year in which the company first generates taxable income and contingent to a time period limitation as stated in the law. These benefits are contingent on an investment by foreigners of at least 50%. The program was enacted in 2000 and accordingly the benefit period is expected to end in 2009. Dividends distributed from approved enterprise income will be liable for a 15% corporate tax rate. If the company should distribute dividends from exempt income, at 20% tax rate will be withheld of the amount distributed (see note 2 L). The above mentioned benefits are contingent on the company meeting the terms of the law and regulations and an authorization letter according to which the company invested in an approved enterprise. Non - fulfillment of these terms may lead to the cancellation of some or all of the above mentioned befits and a demand for the repayment of certain amounts including interest. |

Note 28 - |
Effect of Variances between Israeli GAAP and U.S. GAAP In the Consolidated Statements |
The significant differences between the Israeli GAAP and the U.S. GAAP relate primarily to the following matters :
A. |
Proportional Consolidation |
|
|
|
According to Israeli GAAP, an investment in jointly held investee companies is presented according to the proportionate consolidation method. However, according to U.S. GAAP, such an investment is presented according to the equity method |
B. |
Presentation of liability for termination of employee/employer relationship |
|
|
|
According to the rules of generally accepted accounting principles, the sum of a funded provision in a provident fund is deducted from the related liability. Under U.S. GAAP, the offsetting of assets and liabilities in these circumstances is not acceptable. |
C. |
Depreciation of goodwill |
Following are the effects of the differences on the financial statements:
