PART I

ITEM 1.     BUSINESS

General

EMC Corporation and its subsidiaries design, manufacture, market and support a wide range of networked storage platforms, software and related services. EMC products and services are designed to enable organizations of all types and sizes to manage, protect and share their information in the most efficient and cost-effective manner possible.

EMC Automated Networked Storage solutions unify storage networking technologies, systems and software to meet our customers’ storage requirements in Storage Area Network (SAN), Networked Attached Storage (NAS), Content Addressed Storage (CAS) and direct attached storage environments. These technologies enable our customers to manage many different types of information, including transactional, file-based and fixed-content data. As a result, our customers are able to reduce costs, improve business continuity, increase operational flexibility and productively manage their entire storage infrastructures.

The customers for our products are located worldwide and represent a cross-section of industries and government agencies. Our customers use EMC products and services in conjunction with a variety of computing platforms, storage systems and software applications that support key business processes, including transaction processing, enterprise resource planning, customer relationship management, data warehousing, electronic commerce and web hosting. EMC solutions enable them to consolidate, network and generate value from their digital information across heterogeneous storage systems, switches, hubs, servers and software.

We believe that our products and services enable our customers to realize higher returns on information and achieve competitive advantages.

We were incorporated in Massachusetts in 1979. Our corporate headquarters are located at 176 South Street, Hopkinton, Massachusetts.

Products and Offerings

We operate in the following segments: information storage products and information storage services, which are our principal segments, and other businesses. Information storage products are comprised of information storage systems and information storage software.

Information Storage Systems

Symmetrix Systems

We believe that our Symmetrix family of networked storage systems offers the highest levels of functionality, performance and availability in the information storage market. Our operating software for

1

Table of Contents

Symmetrix is Enginuity, which delivers advanced functionality in areas such as performance management; data integrity; system availability; security; and information protection, replication and sharing within the Symmetrix environment.

Since the introduction of the first Symmetrix model in 1991, we have continued to enhance and increase the capabilities of the Symmetrix family of systems, including increasing server and switch connectivity capabilities, improving performance, increasing capacity and adding advanced software functionality. In February 2003, we introduced a complete new line of Symmetrix systems, the Symmetrix DMX series. The new Symmetrix series is based upon our Direct Matrix Architecture that enables us to significantly and cost-effectively increase performance, availability and functionality of our Symmetrix systems. We believe that this architecture will enable us to continue to significantly increase the capabilities of our Symmetrix systems.

In addition to large-scale integrated systems, the Symmetrix DMX series also includes a modular high-end storage model, the Symmetrix DMX800. With the Symmetrix DMX800, customers are able to purchase Symmetrix storage capabilities in smaller increments and are able to deploy the systems outside data centers, thereby reducing acquisition costs, environmental costs and total cost of ownership. All of our Symmetrix DMX systems operate in conjunction with our open software products.

We intend to continue to enhance the Symmetrix family of systems with additional features and capabilities.

CLARiiON Systems

We believe that our CLARiiON family of networked storage systems, which is based on a modular design, delivers the highest levels of functionality, performance and availability in systems designed for the mid-tier market. Our operating software for CLARiiON is FLARE, which provides capabilities for managing, protecting and replicating information while improving total system availability within the CLARiiON environment.

Since our acquisition of Data General Corporation (“Data General”) and its CLARiiON products in 1999, we have continued to enhance and increase the capabilities of the CLARiiON family of systems, including increasing the server and switch connectivity capabilities, improving performance, increasing capacity and adding advanced software functionality. In 2002, we introduced a complete new series of CLARiiON systems, which includes the CLARiiON CX200, CX400 and CX600. With the CLARiiON CX series, we improved the speed, capacity and connectivity of our CLARiiON systems. This new series of CLARiiON systems allows us to address the requirements of a broader segment of the information storage market.

We intend to continue to enhance the CLARiiON family of systems with additional features and capabilities.

Celerra Systems

We believe that our Celerra family of NAS products offers the highest levels of performance and functionality in the NAS market. Our Celerra products allow users of an internet protocol (IP) network to store, access and update files. Our operating software for Celerra is Data Access in Real Time (DART), designed exclusively for high performance network files access.

Our Celerra products can either serve as a front end NAS connection for an externally attached Symmetrix or CLARiiON storage system, referred to as a Celerra CNS (Clustered Network Server), or can be integrated in a single enclosure with a CLARiiON storage system, referred to as a Celerra NS (Network Server). In 2002, we introduced the first Celerra NS model, the Celerra NS600.

We intend to continue to enhance the Celerra family of systems with additional features and capabilities.

Centera Systems

In 2002, we introduced the Centera CAS system. We believe Centera is the world’s first storage system specifically designed for the requirements of “fixed content.” We define fixed content as information whose value lies in part on its unchanging nature, such as digital x-rays and other medical records, movies, check images and e-mail correspondence. Our operating software for Centera, CentraStar, incorporates content addressing intelligence that calculates a unique address derived from the content of every stored object. Centera eliminates the need for applications to be aware of the physical location of information, regardless of scale, from single-digit terabytes to petabytes, thereby simplifying the task of having applications access and manage huge numbers of objects. Centera ensures verifiable accuracy of the content for data integrity, authentication and other purposes.

Centera is integrated by third parties with their applications and generally sold as part of an integrated solution. As of December 31, 2002, we had more than 100 partners in the Centera developers program and more than 40 applications available to be used with Centera.

We intend to continue to enhance and improve the Centera system with additional features and capabilities, as well as add new partners to expand the number of applications integrated with Centera.

Connectrix Systems

Our Connectrix family includes high-end directors as well as departmental switches. These fibre-channel based systems significantly increase the connectivity between servers and storage systems in a SAN and provide the ability to centralize monitoring and control of information in a SAN. In 2002, we introduced several new Connectrix models, including three 2- gigabit directors and four switches, increasing the performance and connectivity choices of our Connectrix family.

Our Connectrix family of directors and switches are manufactured by certain third party original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”).

We intend to continue to enhance the Connectrix family of switches and directors with additional features and capabilities.

Information Storage Systems Revenue

Revenue from information storage systems (including Symmetrix, CLARiiON, Celerra, Centera and Connectrix products) represented approximately 55%, 61% and 70% of revenues in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively.

Information Storage Software

Introduction

We offer highly innovative software that provides customers with superior information management, sharing and protection capabilities. EMC software includes: (i) platform-based software; and (ii) open software that manages EMC and other vendors’ products.

We support our software research and development efforts through a state-of-the art software development lab in Massachusetts and at other facilities around the world, and, from time to time, through acquisitions of complementary businesses or products. For example, in 2002, we acquired Prisa Networks, Inc., a developer of SAN management software (“Prisa”).

Table of Contents

Platform-based Software

Our platform-based software generally controls and enables functions that take place within the EMC system, such as replication, optimization and data movement. Examples of such software include TimeFinder, Symmetrix Remote Data Facility (SRDF), Navisphere, SnapView, MirrorView and Symmetrix Optimizer. In 2002, we introduced enhancements to our Navisphere, SnapView and MirrorView software products. EMC is the leading supplier of platform-based software in areas such as local and remote replication, which customers use to protect and share data.

We intend to continue to enhance our platform-based software with additional features and capabilities.

Open Software

Our open software strategy, AutoIS, focuses on the automation, simplification and openness of heterogeneous storage infrastructures. Our open software provides management and other capabilities for multi-vendor storage infrastructures. These products are designed to operate either with or without EMC storage systems.

During 2002, we introduced a new version of our ControlCenter family of intelligent supervision software and several new and enhanced software products for management of EMC and third party storage systems and network devices. Automated Resource Manager is the first multi-vendor end-to-end automated provisioning software, which currently automates the provisioning of storage for Symmetrix, CLARiiON and certain other storage systems. Additional ControlCenter application enhancements in 2002 include those to our SAN Manager, StorageScope, Common Array Manager and Replication Manager software. We also introduced PowerPath management software support for CLARiiON, expanding our comprehensive line of open software products (i.e. StorageScope and SAN Manager) that support Symmetrix, CLARiiON and other third party storage systems.

As a result of our acquisition of Prisa, we offer the VisualSAN family of intelligent supervision software for management of EMC and third party storage systems and networks devices, targeted primarily at the mid-tier market.

We intend to continue to enhance our open software with additional features and capabilities, introduce new open software products and broaden the scope of our open software products to manage additional non-EMC products.

Interoperability

We actively participate in the development of standards through our work with and support for the Storage Network Industry Association (“SNIA”) and other organizations. In 2002, we announced our commitment to make all of our software and systems compliant with the emerging Storage Management Initiative specifications through our work with SNIA. We also develop and offer a wide range of application programming interfaces (“APIs”), as well as underlying software technologies, which are used to improve heterogeneous management of storage and networked resources in a networked storage environment.

The EMC Developers Program makes many of our APIs available to third-parties to facilitate the development and sale of software optimized to interoperate with EMC and third party storage systems and software. Customers are then able to select from a wider range of software tools when deploying multivendor storage networks.

In 2002, we agreed to cross-license certain storage system APIs with Hewlett-Packard Company to facilitate each company’s development of management software. We also introduced three new APIs that support a wide range of EMC and third party storage systems and software. We also introduced a new API to enable other vendors’ software to use information managed by our StorageScope software regarding storage systems and

4

Table of Contents

other devices on a storage network. In 2003, we agreed with Veritas Software Corporation to exchange APIs for each party’s products. In 2003, we also agreed on a framework with Hitachi, Ltd. and its subsidiaries for exchanging technology in the form of storage-related APIs.

Through our multi-year investments in interoperability testing capabilities, open standards, software APIs and cooperative service agreements, we believe that we lead the industry in delivering open and multi-platform, dependable storage solutions for customers.

Information Storage Software Revenue

Revenues from information storage software represented approximately 23%, 22% and 16% of revenues in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively.

Information Storage Services

In 2002, our Services organization included professional services, customer support and global technical training, to offer customers a full range of expertise before, during and after their purchase of storage solutions from EMC or other storage vendors. With a worldwide staff of approximately 7,500 professionals, EMC Services, together with our global authorized services partners, provide consulting, assessments, implementations, integration, operations management, day-to-day support, maintenance, education and training to our customers.

Professional Services

Our Professional Services organization provides the expertise and services customers need to maximize their return on information assets. Areas of focus include networked storage, open storage management, data migration, business continuity and project management. Our consultants, technology experts and authorized services partners deliver to customers operational, financial and business impact analyses. They also design, integrate and implement information storage infrastructures. In July 2002, we expanded our professional services capabilities to include platform-independent, open storage consulting.

Customer Support

Our Customer Support organization supports EMC information storage solutions at worldwide customer sites 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year. This is delivered through a combination of remote and onsite service, direct through us and our global authorized services partners. Automated remote support features designed into our information storage systems enable customer support personnel to continuously monitor, diagnose and resolve issues, wherever the product is located, often without the need for onsite service. Other remote support capabilities are also provided on certain of our software products.

To ensure that customers with multi-vendor storage network environments receive the highest level of support and the fastest issue resolution possible, we have, as of December 31, 2002, entered into cooperative support agreements with more than 120 vendors, including hardware and software companies.

Global Technical Training

Our Global Technical Training organization delivers instruction on our technology, our products and storage management job functions as part of the EMC Proven Professional Certification program. Courses and the certification program are available to customers, prospects and partners. Multi-vendor certification training is also available to employees. Training is worldwide in scope and employs e-learning and geographically dispersed classrooms, labs and testing centers.

Information Storage Services Revenue

Revenue from information storage services represented approximately 20%, 14% and 7% of revenues in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively.

Other Businesses

Following our acquisition of Data General in 1999, we sold AViiON server products. In 2001, as part of our restructuring program, we stopped selling such products. However, we continue to support AViiON servers.

Revenue from other businesses represented approximately 2%, 4% and 7% of revenues in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively.

Markets and Distribution Channels

Markets

During 2002, we focused primarily on high-end and mid-tier markets. These markets are characterized by their varying requirements for storage-related features, functions and performance.

Distribution Channels

We market our products through multiple distribution channels. We have a direct sales presence throughout North America, Latin America, Europe, the Middle East, South Africa and the Asia Pacific region. We also have agreements in place with many distributors, systems integrators, resellers and OEMs in certain areas of the world. These agreements, subject to certain terms and conditions, enable these companies to market and resell certain of our systems and software.

Alliances

We have strategic alliances with leading software, networking and services companies. We intend to continue to form additional alliances. Our strategy is to work closely with these and other companies to provide added value to our customers by integrating our solutions with software and networking applications that customers rely on to manage their day-to-day business operations.

Manufacturing and Quality

Our information storage systems are assembled and tested primarily at our facilities in the United States and abroad. See “Properties.” We work closely with our suppliers to design, assemble and test product components in accordance with production standards and quality controls established by us. Our information storage software products are designed, developed and tested primarily at our facilities in the United States and abroad. The products are tested to meet quality standards established by us.

We employ a company-wide Total Quality Management and Continuous Improvement philosophy and have adopted Six Sigma and other quality methodologies to ensure that the quality of our designs, manufacturing, test processes and supplier relationships follow the same methodologies. Our manufacturing and test facilities in Massachusetts, North Carolina and Ireland are ISO 9000 certified. We also hold 12 additional certifications worldwide covering ISO 9000, ISO 14000 Environmental Management Standard Certification and Support Center Practices (SCP) certification for our software customer support centers. These internationally recognized endorsements of ongoing quality management represent the highest levels of certifications available.

Raw Materials

We purchase many sophisticated components and products from one or a limited number of qualified suppliers, including some of our competitors. Our products utilize industry standard and semi-custom

6

Table of Contents

components and subsystems. Among the most important components that we use are disk drives, high density memory components and power supplies. While such components are generally available, we have experienced delivery delays from time to time because of high industry demand or the inability of some vendors to consistently meet our quality or delivery requirements.

Research and Development

We continually enhance our existing products and develop new products to meet changing customer requirements. In 2002, 2001 and 2000, our research and development expenses totaled $781.5 million, $928.7 million and $783.2 million, respectively.

Backlog

We manufacture our systems on the basis of our forecast of near-term demand and maintain inventory in advance of receipt of firm orders from customers. We configure to customer specifications and generally ship systems shortly after receipt of the order. Customers may reschedule or cancel orders with little or no penalty. For these reasons, we believe that our backlog at any particular time is not meaningful because it is not necessarily indicative of future sales levels.

Competition

We compete with many established companies in the markets we serve. We believe that most of these companies compete based on their overall market presence and their ability to address customers’ broad information technology requirements. Certain of these companies also compete by offering information storage products or services, together with other products or services, at minimal or no additional cost in order to preserve or gain market share. We also compete with many smaller, less established companies in specific product segments.

We believe that we have a number of competitive advantages over these companies, including product, distribution and service. We believe the advantages in our products include performance, functionality, scalability, availability, interoperability, connectivity, time to market enhancements and total value of ownership. We believe our advantages in distribution include the world’s largest storage-focused direct sales force and our broad network of channel partners. We believe our advantages in service include our ability to provide our customers with a complete set of storage service solutions, encompassing both professional services and customer service for our information storage systems and software.

Seasonality

Although we do not consider our business to be highly seasonal, we generally experience the greatest demand for our products and services in the last quarter of the year.

Intellectual Property

We generally rely on patent, copyright, trademark and trade secret laws and contract rights to establish and maintain our proprietary rights in our technology and products. While our intellectual property rights are important to our success, we believe that our business as a whole is not materially dependent on any particular patent, trademark, license or other intellectual property right.

We have been granted or own by assignment approximately 700 patents issued by, and have over 600 patent applications pending with, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, as well as a corresponding number of international patents and patent applications. While the duration of our patents varies, we believe that the duration of our patents is adequate relative to the expected lives of our products.

7

Table of Contents

We have used, registered or applied to register certain trademarks and copyrights in the United States and in other countries. We also license certain technology from third parties for use in our products and processes and license certain of our technology to third parties.

Employees

As of December 31, 2002, we had approximately 17,400 employees worldwide. None of our domestic employees are represented by a labor union, and we have never suffered an interruption of business as a result of a labor dispute. We consider our relations with our employees to be good.

Financial Information About Segments, Foreign and Domestic Operations and Export Sales

We operate in three business segments: information storage products, information storage services and other businesses. Sales and marketing operations outside the United States are conducted through sales subsidiaries and branches located principally in Europe, Latin America and the Asia Pacific region. We have three primary manufacturing facilities: one in Massachusetts, which manufactures Symmetrix and Celerra systems for the North American markets; one in Ireland, which manufactures Symmetrix, CLARiiON and Celerra systems for markets outside of North America; and one in North Carolina, which manufactures CLARiiON systems for the North American markets and Centera systems for worldwide markets.

ITEM 3.     LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

In April 2002, EMC filed a complaint against Hitachi, Ltd. and Hitachi Data Systems Corporation (together, “Hitachi”) with the International Trade Commission (“ITC”) and in the United States Federal District Court in Worcester, Massachusetts. The ITC complaint alleged that Hitachi engaged in unlawful activities by importing into the United States products that infringed six EMC patents. We asked the ITC to issue an injunction to block importation of Hitachi’s infringing products and in May 2002, the ITC voted to commence an investigation into our claims. The suit in District Court seeks preliminary and permanent injunctions as well as unspecified monetary damages for patent infringement. In June 2002, the suit in District Court was stayed, pending the outcome of the ITC action. Subsequent to the date we filed a complaint against Hitachi, in April 2002, Hitachi and Hitachi Computer Products (America), Inc. (“HICAM”) filed a complaint against us in the United States Federal District Court for the Western District of Oklahoma alleging that certain of our products infringe eight Hitachi patents and seeking preliminary and permanent injunctions as well as unspecified monetary damages for patent infringement. In July 2002, this suit was transferred to the United States Federal District Court in Worcester, Massachusetts. In March 2003, EMC and Hitachi jointly announced that the parties had entered into agreements whereby they agreed (i) to settle all pending patent infringement claims between EMC, Hitachi and HICAM, (ii) to cross-license their respective patents and (iii) to a framework for exchanging technology in the form of storage-related APIs. In accordance with the cross-license agreements, we will receive payments from Hitachi. The cross-license agreements expire at the end of 2007. On February 27, 2003, EMC and Hitachi filed a Joint Motion with the ITC to terminate the ITC investigation on the basis of the above-referenced agreements, and on March 11, 2003, the ITC judge signed an order terminating the ITC investigation. The parties intend to move to dismiss the district court actions referenced above once the ITC judge’s order has been accepted by the ITC.

On September 30, 2002, EMC filed a complaint against Hewlett-Packard Company (“HP”) in the United States Federal District Court in Worcester, Massachusetts alleging that certain HP products infringe six EMC patents. The suit seeks a permanent injunction as well as unspecified monetary damages for patent infringement. On September 30, 2002, HP filed a complaint against us in the United States Federal District Court for the Northern District of California alleging that certain of our products infringe seven HP patents. The suit seeks a permanent injunction as well as unspecified monetary damages for patent infringement. We believe that HP’s claims are without merit, and on October 1, 2002, we filed an amended complaint asking the court to declare that the seven HP patents are invalid and not infringed.

We are a party to other litigation which we consider routine and incidental to our business. Management does not expect the results of any of these actions to have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

ITEM 4.     SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

No matter was submitted to a vote of our stockholders during the fourth quarter of 2002.
