Business Summary
Howtek Incorporated is a manufacturer of high-end drum scanners for the graphic arts industry. Howtek develops, manufactures, and markets digitizing systems, or "scanners", which convert printed, photographic and other "hard copy" images to digital form for use in the photo-finishing, medical and graphic arts industries. Howtek is promoting drum scanner sales into the wide format printer market where the greater resolution of its HiResolve drum scanners permit the capture of more information about an original image. The Company operates three segments: the Photographic Print Scanner business, the Medical Digitizer business and the Prepress and Graphic Arts business.

Financial Summary
Howtek designs, engineers, develops and manufactures digital image scanners, film digitizers and related software for applications in the medical imaging, prepress and photographic markets. For the six months ended 6/30/01, sales fell 30% to $2.4 million. Net loss applicable to Common rose 79% to $1.5 million. Revenues reflect lower sales of prepress and graphic arts products. Higher loss reflects an increase in personnel, advertising, trade show and promotional expenses.
