Interim Consolidated
Financial Statements
and Directors Report
At March 31, 2004
Directors Report
for the three month Period ended March 31, 2004
We are pleased to present the Directors Report on the financial condition of our company for the three-month period ended March 31, 2004.
RoboGroup T.E.K. Limited and its Business Environment
The Company operates through three business sectors.
| The first sector focuses on the companys traditional business activities the education field. This sector includes the Companys research and development departments, the operations department, and the marketing and sales department that handles the sale of the Companys products and products manufactured by third parties to the training and education markets in Israel and around the world. |
| The second sector includes the subsidiary YET. YET is engaged in the development, manufacturing, and marketing of motion control products for the industrial market. |
| The third sector includes the activities of both MemCall Ltd. and MemCall LLC. (MemCall). MemCall is developing new technology designed to shorten the length of time required to locate and retrieve information in computer and communications networks. |
The Education Sector
During the first quarter of 2004 the Company recorded revenues of approximately US$ 720 thousands from out of an approximately US$1 million order for training products, received in November 2003.
In March 2004, the supply of the e-learning system sold to our subsidiary YET in October 2003 was completed. The transaction was in the amount of approximately US$ 850 thousands, out of which the Company recorded revenues of US$ 425 thousands.
Our Educational Sector has recently started implementing a cost-cutting plan to improve its profitability. The plan includes, among other things, a reduction in the number of personnel and consolidation of similar activities. By the implementation of this plan we expect to reduce our expenses for the next 12 months by approximately US$ 1 million. We expect that this plan will improve both financial results in the second half of 2004, and negative cash flow.

YET
During the first quarter of 2004 YET received approximately US$ 590 thousands for development services from Yaskawa Electric Corporation (YEC).
During the first quarter of 2004, YET continued its investment in the development of sales and marketing channels in Europe and in the US. YETs fully owned subsidiary, YET US Inc., has signed several distribution agreements with key factors in the US market, while activities in the European market has led to sales of YETs products in Europe.
In the first quarter of 2004 YET recorded total sales of approximately US$ 340 thousands The majority of the sales were of YETs products, both within Israel and globally. The remaining sales were of YECs products in the Israeli market.
In May 2000, RoboGroup entered into a service agreement with YET under which YET pays RoboGroup for services and management fees. The payment amount is determined annually by mutual consent. In January 2004, a service agreement was signed by RoboGroup and YET for 2004, under which YET will pay RoboGroup approximately NIS 0.9 million for services and management fees.
MemCall
In December 2003 RoboGroups Board of Directors decided to reduce the Companys continued investment in Memcall, after realizing that negotiations with potential strategic partners (manufacturers and marketers in the global silicon market) were not developed into binding contracts.
In accordance with that decision, during the first and second quarters of 2004 MemCall released most of its employees and is continuing its activity in a limited scope, while examining alternative means to implement solutions (required by potential customers) without investing in the development of a full custom chip. During this period, Memcall filed a new inscription patent with the Israeli Commissioner of Patents.
RoboGroups investment in MemCall in the first quarter of 2004 amounted to approximately US$ 140 thousands.
The space in RoboGroups building in Rosh HaAyin that is not occupied by the Company and its fully owned subsidiaries is leased to three outside tenants. During the first quarter of 2004, the Company recorded approximately US$ 140 thousands in rental payments from these tenants.
In the first quarter of 2004, the Company entered into a five-year lease with a fourth tenant for a 650 square meter space. As a result, the building is now fully occupied.

a. Currency Risks
The majority of the Companys products are exported, and as a result the bulk of the Companys income is received in foreign currency. Consequently, the Company is subject to risks from changes in the exchange rates of foreign currencies (mainly US$ and Japanese YEN). The Company undertakes the following precautions measures in order to limit its exposure:
1. | Daily monitoring of changes in the exchange rates of the various currencies as well as of factors that are bound to influence such currencies. |
2. | An evaluation of the Companys quarterly position with respect to the general exposure to changes in the various currencies. |
3. | Establishing foreign currency linked loans for the financing of the Companys investments in its building. |
Notwithstanding these precautions, the Company cannot insure full protection against foreign currency risks and the Company is exposed to exchange rate fluctuations between various foreign currencies and the Israeli shekel.
Given that the majority of the Companys income is in foreign currency, the Company does not enter into specific hedging contracts against exposure due to changes of interest and index rates. However, the Company is accustomed to investing a portion of its monetary balances in accordance with its periodic evaluations with respect to expectations in the area of interest and index rates.
In 2003, the Company liquidated its investment portfolio. In the event the Company will decide to invest in securities in the future, it will be exposed to fluctuations in the prices of the securities in its investment portfolio.
The Companys chief financial officer is responsible for managing the Companys market risks.
- 3 -
The Companys management and the finance committee of the Board of Directors constantly monitor the extent of the Companys exposure to market risks, and determine if it is necessary to modify the Companys risk management policy and, if necessary, adopt protective measures.
As of March 31, 2004 the Company had no outstanding futures contracts. The Company did not enter into any futures contracts in the first three months of 2004.

In Decmber 2003, RoboGroup and its subsidiary, RTL, filed a suit in the District Court of Tel-Aviv against Fourier. The suit seeks injunctions, mandamus and damages of NIS 2.6 million. In the suit we have alleged the theft of our commercial secrets, other commercial torts and the violation of a distribution agreement between RTL and Fourier. In February 2004, Fuorier filed a counter claim seeking damages of approximately NIS 3 million against the Company and RTL. |
On March 11, 2004, the Court determined that certain information, including commercial secrets of RTL and the Company, were found in Fouriers offices and computers, and that Fourier had breached the Israeli Commercial Torts Law, 1999. The Court also determined that Fourier was acting in bad faith by trying to annul its exclusive distribution agreement in Israel with RTL. The court ordered Fourier to avoid using the information that came from RTL and the Company. The court also ordered Fourier to fulfill its obligation under its agreement to supply products to RTL according to the original price list agreed to by the two companies. |
8. External factors
| A substantial slowdown was observed in the last few years in the networking market, which is the principal potential market for MemCalls products. This has brought about a reduction in the potential market, and a slower penetration of new technologies and products into the market. The slowdown in the target markets for MemCalls potential products has had an adverse effect on MemCalls prospects. |
- 8 -
| In the educational technology market in the U.S. and in the State of Israel, institutional investments in educational infrastructure declined as a result of thelack of economic resources made available for institutional entities generally and for educational institutions in particular. The decrease in financial resources available for educational products has brought about a reduction in potential sales. |
| The security and economic situation in the State of Israel has had a detrimental impact on the Companys business. Due the security situation partners and customers from abroad have hesitated to visit Israel and to continue developing their businesses in Israel. The recession in Israel and the cutbacks in the education budget have depressed the potential market for the Companys products in Israel. |

Notes to the Financial Statements |
NIS in Thousands |
(a) | These financial statements have been prepared in a condensed format as of March 31, 2004, and for the three months then ended (interim financial statements). These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Companys audited annual financial statements and accompanying notes as of December 31, 2003 and for the year then ended. |
(b) | These financial statements have been reviewed by the Companys certified public accountants. The review was conducted in accordance with the procedures established by the Institute of Certified Public Accountants in Israel regarding interim periods. The review was limited in scope and did not constitute an audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and therefore no opinion was expressed by the Companys certified public accountants. |
(c) | In managements opinion all necessary adjustments were made in order to present correctly these interim financial statements. |
a. | The interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for the preparation of financial statements for interim periods, as prescribed in Accounting Standard No. 14 of the Israel Accounting Standards Board. |
The significant accounting policies and methods of computation followed in the preparation of the interim financial statements are identical to those followed in the preparation of the latest annual financial statements, except as described below. |
b. | Discontinuance of the adjustment of financial statements for the effects of inflation and financial reporting in reported amounts: |
In 2001, the Israel Accounting Standards Board published Accounting Standard No. 12 with respect to the discontinuance of the adjustment of financial statements (Standard No. 12). According to this Standard (as amended by Accounting Standard No. 17), the adjustment of financial statements for the effects of inflation should be discontinued beginning January 1, 2004. The Company applied the provisions of the Standard, and accordingly, the adjustment for the effects of inflation was discontinued as from January 1, 2004. |
1. | Starting point for the preparation of financial statements: |
a) | In the past, the Company prepared its financial statements on the basis of the historical cost convention, adjusted for the changes in the general purchasing power of the Israeli currency based on the changes in the Israeli Consumer Price Index (Israeli CPI). These adjusted amounts, as included in the financial statements as of December 31, 2003 (the transition date), served as a starting point for nominal financial reporting beginning January 1, 2004. Additions made after the transition date are included at nominal values. |
b) | The amounts for non-monetary assets do not necessarily represent realizable value or current economic value, but only the reported amounts for those assets. |
c) | In the financial statements cost represents cost in the reported amount (see 2 below). |
d) | All comparative data for previous periods are presented after adjustment for the Israeli CPI as of the transition date (the Israeli CPI for December 2003). |

4. | Translation of financial statements of foreign operations (to be added only if relevant): |
a) | As stated above, on January 1, 2004, Accounting Standard No. 13 with respect to the effect of changes in foreign exchange rates became effective. Standard No. 13 replaces Interpretations No. 8 and No. 9 of Opinion No. 36 of the Institute of Certified Public Accountants in Israel, which were superseded when Accounting Standard No. 12, as described above, became effective. |
Standard No. 13 deals with the translation of foreign currency transactions and with the translation of financial statements of foreign operations for incorporation into the financial statements of the Company. |
b) | Foreign operation that is classified as a foreign autonomous entity (the entity): |
In accordance with Standard No. 13, assets and liabilities, both monetary and non-monetary, of the entity are translated at the closing rate. The components of the statement of operations and of the statement of cash flows of the entity are translated at the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions or at average exchange rates for the period if such exchange rates approximate the actual exchange rates. All exchange rate differences resulting from the translation, as above, are classified as a separate item in shareholders equity (foreign currency translation adjustments for autonomous entities) until the disposal of the investment. |
c. | The adjusted financial statements at March 31, 2004 have been translated into US dollars solely for the convenience of the American reader. This translation was made at the US Dollar/New Israeli Shekel exchange rate in effect on the said date, i.e. US$ 1 = NIS4.528. |
In October 2003 the Company entered into a contact with a proportionally consolidated company for the supply of a Learnmate platform, in consideration of 850 thousand dollars. The platform was supplied until March 2004. |
