NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Basis of Presentation

As permitted by the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission applicable to Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, these notes are condensed and do not contain all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles. Reference should be made to the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2002.

In the opinion of the management of Cognex Corporation, the accompanying consolidated unaudited financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position at March 30, 2003, and the results of its operations for the three-month periods ended March 30, 2003 and March 31, 2002, and changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the periods presented.

The results disclosed in the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three-month period ended March 30, 2003 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Certain amounts reported in prior periods have been reclassified to be consistent with the current period presentation.

Stock-Based Compensation Plans

The Company recognizes compensation costs using the intrinsic value based method described in Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees.” Net income (loss) and net income (loss) per share as reported in these consolidated financial statements and on a pro forma basis, as if the fair value based method described in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” had been adopted, are as follows:

                 
    Three Months Ended
   
    March 30, 2003   March 31, 2002
   
 
Net income (loss), as reported
  $ 1,793     $ (2,520 )
Less: Total stock-based compensation costs determined under fair value based method, net of tax
    (3,171 )     (5,095 )
 
   
     
 
Net income (loss), pro forma
  $ (1,378 )   $ (7,615 )
 
   
     
 
Basic net income (loss) per share, as reported
  $ 0.04     $ (0.06 )
Basic net income (loss) per share, pro forma
  $ (0.03 )   $ (0.17 )
Diluted net income (loss) per share, as reported
  $ 0.04     $ (0.06 )
Diluted net income (loss) per share, pro forma
  $ (0.03 )   $ (0.17 )

For the purpose of providing pro forma disclosures, the fair values of stock options granted were estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions used for grants during the quarter ended March 30, 2003 and March 31, 2002, respectively: a risk-free interest rate of 2.0% and 3.5%; an expected life of 2.4 and 2.8 years; an expected volatility of 59% and 60%; and no expected dividends.

NOTE 2: New Pronouncements

In November 2002, the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) reached a consensus on Issue No. 00-21, “Accounting for Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables.” This issue addresses how revenue arrangements with multiple deliverables should be divided into separate units of accounting and how the arrangement consideration should be allocated to the identified separate accounting units. EITF Issue No. 00-21 is effective for fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2003. The Company has not yet determined the impact of adopting EITF Issue No. 00-21 on its consolidated financial statements.
