 of the Company's subsidiary, Advanced Digital Designs, Inc., decreased from approximately $469,000 in the fourth-quarter of 2000 to $176,000 in the fourth-quarter of 2001. The decrease in revenue of 62% is a result of the reduction in engineering projects available in the marketplace. Customers for the type of services have experienced layoffs and cutbacks within their own industries, and outside consulting is another area where companies reduced their costs. This decline has continued throughout the first quarter of 2002. Cost of sales in the fourth-quarter of 2001 includes the write-off Write-Off

. Because of the above, gross loss decreased from $1,936,000 in the fourth-quarter of 2000 to $359,000 for the fourth-quarter of 2001.

Revenue for the year ended December December: see month.  31, 2001 was approximately $2,620,000 as compared to net revenues of $860,000 in 2000. Revenues from the sale of products increased from $64,000 in 2000 to $1,274,000 in 2001. The significant increase is the result of the Company beginning shipment of its set-top box during the fourth quarter of 2001. Additionally, the Company recognized approximately $135,000 of revenues from its interactive cable provider subsidiary, Suncoast. These revenues are only for six months, since the Company acquired the net assets Net assets

Design service revenues in 2000 were for four and one-half months, since the date of acquisition of Advanced Digital Designs, Inc. on August 18, 2000. Design service revenues began declining during the second half of 2001, as customers began canceling projects and not beginning new ones. Cost of sales decreased from $2,376,000 in 2000 to $1,680,000 in 2001. Cost of sales in 2000 included a write down of obsolete inventory Obsolete Inventory

Cost of sales for 2001 includes the costs of the set-top boxes sold, as well as a write down of obsolete inventory of $490,000. Cost of services increased from $500,000 in 2000 to $1,137,000 in 2001. Cost of services for 2000 are included only from the date of acquisition of Advanced Digital Designs, Inc., representing four and one-half months. Cost of services consist primarily of payroll and related employee benefits of the engineers performing the services. Gross profit for design services decreased from 37% in 2000 to 16% in 2001. The decline in gross profit is a result of the decline in revenues while cost of services did not decrease in proportion to the revenues.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for fourth-quarter of 2001 include the operations of the Suncoast subsidiary as well as the operations of the branch office in Greece, whereas neither of these two operations existed in 2000. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the fourth- quarter of 2000 include expenses associated with the Comdex2000 trade show, advertising, expenses associated with exploring foreign markets and the charges to increase the reserve for bad debts reserve for bad debts

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to approximately $4,742,000 for the year ended December 31, 2001 as compared to $3,630,000 for 2000.

Also included in 2001 are six months of selling, general and administrative expenses of Suncoast, included since the date of acquisition. These approximated $490,000.

Research and Development costs decreased by approximately $325,000 from approximately $999,000 in the fourth-quarter 2000 to approximately $674,000 in the fourth-quarter 2001. This is attributable to the completion of the development of the OraLynx(TM) set-top box in 2001. Research and Development costs increased to approximately $2,434,000 for the year ended December 31, 2001 as compared to $1,472,000 for 2000. Approximately 84% of Research and Development in 2001 consisted of costs associated with the development of the OraLynx(TM) set-top box, with approximately 16% for the development of the new version of the Orasis(R). Research and Development costs in 2000 were for the development of the OraLynx(TM) set-top box.

For the year ended December 31, 2001, amortization of goodwill associated with the acquisition of Advanced Digital Designs, Inc. amounted to $1,100,000, whereas in 2000, only four and one-half months of amortization are included, which amounted to $412,500.

 and other losses for the year ended December 31, 2001 consisted of the write off of the remaining goodwill associated with the acquisition of Advanced Digital Designs, Inc. of $3,987,500 and $290,000 of an investment in non-marketable securities. During the fourth quarter of 2001 the Company determined that the set-top box design was completed and the design services business with outside customers was declining, therefore an impairment of the goodwill associated with the acquisition of ADD occurred. The Company revised its projections and determined that the projected results would not support the carrying value of the goodwill balance. In addition, the Company determined that the carrying value of its investment in non-marketable securities had been impaired See assistive technology.  since the investment had discontinued dis·con·tin·ue

Interest expense increased from $4,000 in the fourth-quarter 2000 to approximately $258,000 in the fourth-quarter of 2001. This increase is attributable to the amortization of the beneficial conversion feature associated with the Convertible Note in 2001. Interest expense increased to approximately $274,000 for the year ended December 31, 2001 from $68,000 for the year ended December 31, 2000. Interest on capital leases and other borrowings decreased from $68,000 to $22,000 because the outstanding balances on the capital leases and borrowings have decreased.
