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 A reduction in the value of an asset or earnings by the amount of an expense or loss.

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.

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.

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 v. dis·con·tin·ued, dis·con·tin·u·ing, dis·con·tin·ues v.tr. 1.

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.
