CATALYST SEMICONDUCTOR, INC.
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 — Basis of Presentation:

     In the opinion of the management of Catalyst Semiconductor, Inc. (Company), the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements included herein have been prepared on the same basis as the April 30, 2002 audited consolidated financial statements and include all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to fairly state the information set forth herein. The consolidated statements include the accounts of the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Nippon Catalyst KK, a sales organization in Japan and Catalyst Semiconductor Romania Com SRL, our European design center. The statements have been prepared in accordance with the regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2002. The results of operations for the three month period ended January 31, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire year ending April 30, 2003 or any other future period. Certain prior period balances have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

     The Company’s business is highly cyclical and has been subject to significant downturns at various times which have been characterized by reduced product demand, production overcapacity and significant erosion of average selling prices. In the most recent two quarters ended January 2003, the combined effects of decreased shipments with minimal changes in prices have resulted in decreasing revenues and margins. The Company could experience further downward trends in product pricing or volume in the future which could further adversely affect its operating results.

     The Company’s fiscal year and its first, second and third fiscal quarters end on the Sunday closest to April 30, July 31, October 31 and January 31, respectively. For purposes of financial statement presentation, the year end date is expressed as April 30 and the quarter end dates are expressed as July 31, October 31 and January 31, respectively.

     Comprehensive income is defined as the change in equity of a business enterprise during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources. Through January 31, 2003, the Company had $10,000 of other comprehensive income resulting from unrealized gains from its investment activities. Comprehensive income for the three and nine month periods ended January 31, 2003 amounted to $324,000 and $2,327,000, respectively.

Note 2 — Net Income (Loss) Per Share:

     Basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common stockholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding (denominator) during the period and excludes the dilutive effect of stock options. Diluted net income (loss) per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during a period. In computing diluted net income (loss) per share, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options.
