+ Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
2
+ Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
3
+ Our management has
4
+ evaluated, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form
5
+ 10-K pursuant to Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act). Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls
6
+ and procedures are effective at January 31, 2013 to ensure that the information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is (1) recorded, processed, summarized and reported in a timely manner and (2) accumulated and
7
+ communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
8
+ Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
9
+ The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as such
10
+ term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act). The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of its financial reporting and the
11
+ preparation of published financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
12
+ Because of the
13
+ inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to risk that controls may become inadequate because of
14
+ changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance may deteriorate.
15
+ Management conducted its evaluation of the effectiveness
16
+ of its internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in “Internal Control-Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) as of January 31,
17
+ 2013. Based on this assessment, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer believe that as of January 31, 2013, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective based on criteria set forth by COSO
18
+ in “Internal Control-Integrated Framework.”
19
+ This annual report does not include an attestation report of the
20
+ Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to the rules of the
21
+ Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.
22
+ Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
23
+ There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during our most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to affect, our
24
+ internal control over financial reporting.

+ DESCRIPTION OF
3
+ BUSINESS.
4
+ General
5
+ Digital
6
+ Power Corporation is a solution-driven organization that designs, develops,
7
+ manufactures and sells high-grade customized and flexible power system solutions
8
+ for the most demanding applications in the medical, military, telecom and
9
+ industrial markets. We are highly focused on high-grade and custom
10
+ product designs for both the commercial and military/defense markets, where
11
+ customers demand high density, high efficiency and ruggedized products to meet
12
+ the harshest and/or military mission critical operating
13
+ conditions. We are a California corporation originally formed in
14
+ 1969, and our common stock trades on the NYSE Amex under the symbol
15
+ “DPW”. Our corporate headquarters are located in the heart of the Silicon
16
+ Valley.
17
+ We also
18
+ have a wholly-owned subsidiary, Digital Power Limited ("DPL"), which operates
19
+ under the brand name of “Gresham Power Electronics” (“Gresham”). DPL
20
+ is located in Salisbury, England, and it designs, manufactures and sells power
21
+ products and system solutions mainly for the European marketplace, including
22
+ power conversion, power distribution equipment, DC/AC (Direct Current/Active
23
+ Current) inverters and UPS (Uninterrupted Power Supply) products. DPL’s defense
24
+ business has specialists in the field of naval applications of power
25
+ distribution conversion.
26
+ We
27
+ believe that we are one of the first companies in the power solutions industry
28
+ to introduce a product strategy based on the premise that products developed
29
+ with an extremely flexible architecture enable rapid modifications to meet
30
+ unique customer requirements for non-standard output voltages. The development
31
+ and implementation of this strategy has resulted in broad acceptance in the
32
+ telecom/industrial, and increasingly in the medical market, segments for our new
33
+ line of high density and high efficiency power products. These
34
+ products set an industry standard for providing high-power output in package
35
+ sizes that are among the smallest available for such commercial
36
+ products.
37
+ We
38
+ market and sell our products to many diverse market segments, including the
39
+ telecom, industrial, medical and military/defense industries. Our
40
+ products serve a global market, with an emphasis on North America and
41
+ Europe. We offer a broad product variety, including a full custom
42
+ product design and production, unique high-speed switching power front-end,
43
+ modified-standard and value added products, open-frame, Compact-PCI, ATSC
44
+ front-ends and PoE (Power over Ethernet) product solutions, providing power
45
+ output from 50 to 25,000 watts.
46
+ In an
47
+ effort to provide short lead-times, high quality products and competitive
48
+ pricing to support our markets, we have entered into production agreements with
49
+ several contract manufacturers located in Asia, primarily
50
+ China. These agreements allow us to better control production costs
51
+ and ensure high quality products deliverable in a timely manner to meet market
52
+ demand.
53
+ We intend
54
+ to remain an innovative leader in the development of cutting-edge custom power
55
+ solutions and rich features products to meet any customer needs and
56
+ requirements, rugged power systems to meet harsh and extreme operation
57
+ environmental requirements, and high performance, high efficiency, high-density
58
+ and modular power systems. We are focusing today on developing
59
+ even more high-grade custom power system solutions for numerous customers in a
60
+ broadly diversified range of markets and challenging environments. Each product
61
+ development is based on best of class performance criteria, including unique,
62
+ advanced feature sets and a special layout to meet our customers’ unique
63
+ operating conditions where efficiency, size and time to market are key to their
64
+ success. We are taking initiatives to develop and sell high
65
+ efficiency “green power” solutions.
66
+ Power
67
+ System Solutions
68
+ We
69
+ provide custom power system solutions, high-grade flexibility series power
70
+ supply products and value-added services to diverse industries and markets
71
+ including military/defense, telecom, medical and industrial. We
72
+ believe that our solutions leverage a combination of high power density,
73
+ superior power efficiency, design flexibility and short time to
74
+ market.
75
+ Custom
76
+ Power System Solutions . We
77
+ provide high-grade custom power system solutions to numerous customers in
78
+ multiple industry segments. Each custom solution that we develop is based on
79
+ high power density and a special layout to meet each of our customer’s unique
80
+ operation environments where efficiency, size and performance are
81
+ key. We combine our power design capabilities with the latest
82
+ circuit designs to provide complete power solutions for virtually any
83
+ need. In the design of custom power solutions, we work closely
84
+ with our customers’ engineering teams to develop mechanical enclosures to ensure
85
+ 100% compatibility with any hosted platform.
86
+ Our
87
+ standard contract for custom power solutions includes a multi-year high-volume
88
+ production forecast that allows us to secure long-term production guarantees
89
+ (and therefore possible savings on manufacturing costs for volume orders) while
90
+ providing an environment that promotes the development of our intellectual
91
+ property (“IP”) portfolio. We believe that this business
92
+ model provides an incentive to our customers to be committed to high-volume
93
+ production orders.
94
+ High-Grade
95
+ Flexibility Series Power Supply Products . While some of
96
+ our customers have special requirements that include a full custom design, other
97
+ customers may require only certain electrical changes to standard power supply
98
+ products, such as modified output voltages and unique status and control
99
+ signals, and mechanical repackaging tailored to fit the specific application. We
100
+ offer a wide range of standard and modified standard products that can be easily
101
+ integrated with any platform across our diversified market
102
+ segments.
103
+ Value-Added
104
+ Services .
105
+ In addition to our custom solutions and high-grade flexibility
106
+ series proprietary products that we offer, we also provide value-added services
107
+ to OEMs. We incorporate an OEM’s selected electronic components,
108
+ enclosures, cable assemblies and other compliance components into our power
109
+ system solutions to produce a power subassembly that is compatible with the
110
+ OEM’s own equipment and specifically tailored to meet the OEM’s
111
+ needs. We purchase parts and components that the OEM itself would
112
+ otherwise attach to, or integrate with, our power systems, and provide the OEM
113
+ with the integration and installation service, thus eliminating a complex,
114
+ time-consuming and costly integration. We believe that this
115
+ value-added service is well suited to those OEMs who wish to reduce their vendor
116
+ base and minimize their investment in manufacturing that leads to increased
117
+ fixed costs. Based on these value-added services, the OEMs do not
118
+ need to build assembly facilities to manufacture their own power subassemblies
119
+ and thus are not required to purchase individual parts from many
120
+ vendors.
121
+ 2
122
+ Our
123
+ products have a standard warranty of 12 months from date of shipment to the
124
+ customer.
125
+ Markets
126
+ We sell
127
+ our custom power system solutions, high-grade flexibility series power supply
128
+ products and value-added services to customers in a diverse range of commercial

+ identify and focus on strategic accounts. This strategy allows us to maintain a
141
+ close and direct relationship with them, which positions us as the supplier of
142
+ choice for these customers’ challenging, innovative and demanding new product
143
+ requirements. In striving for additional market share, we
144
+ simultaneously strengthen our traditional sales channels of manufacturer
145
+ representatives and distributors. We plan to continue to build more channels and
146
+ increase our market share through 2010.

288
+ Strategy
289
+ Our
290
+ strategy is to be the supplier of choice to those companies and OEMs requiring
291
+ high-quality power system solutions where custom design, superior product,
292
+ high-quality, time to market and very competitive prices are critical to
293
+ business success. We believe that we provide advanced custom product design
294

300
+ existing power sources with our custom design cost-effective
301
+ products.
302
+ Our
303
+ target market segments include the industrial, telecommunication, medical, and
304
+ military/defense industries. We do not participate in the personal
305
+ computer power supply market because of the low margins arising out of the high
306
+ volume and extremely competitive nature of that market.
307
+ 4
308
+ Our
309
+ strategy will continue to focus on expanding our market share by adding new
310
+ customers from all of our target market segments. We are developing long term
311
+ relationships, and we intend to expand our customer base in our commercial
312
+ market segments, including medical, telecom and industrial, while continuing to
313
+ maintain our existing customers. In the military and defense market
314
+ segment, we will continue to provide advanced rugged products to customers, and
315

317
+ series, high-grade and high-efficiency power product solutions provide customers
318
+ with a more effective choice as compared to products offered by other power
319
+ solution competitors, due in part to a customer’s requirement for output
320
+ voltages and other features such as redundancy and sense control tailored to its
321
+ exact requirements within specific parameters.
322
+ Furthermore,
323
+ we believe that we have the talent and engineering experience to satisfy any of
324
+ our customers’ product or platform requirements. If an OEM customer
325
+ specifies a different set of power system parameters, we will custom design or
326
+ modify a product to meet the OEM’s requirements With a
327
+ wide range of solutions from our custom designs to our high-grade flexibility
328
+ series products, our professional design team can provide economical and timely
329
+ product solutions to our OEM customers. In addition, as our power
330
+ systems meet all appropriate environmental requirements and safety standards,
331
+ our smaller OEM customers can expedite the process of independent safety agency
332
+ testing by companies such as by Underwriters Laboratories, and save considerable
333
+ expense. By offering OEM customers a new choice with Digital
334
+ Power’s custom, flexibility series, high-grade and high-efficiency power system
335
+ solutions, we believe we provide certain strategic advantages over our
336

338
+ Power Limited (Gresham Power Electronics)
339
+ DPL, our
340
+ wholly-owned subsidiary organized and headquartered in Salisbury, England,
341
+ designs, manufactures, and distributes switching power supplies, uninterruptible
342
+ power supplies, and power conversion and distribution equipment frequency
343
+ converters for the commercial and military markets, under the name Gresham.
344
+ Frequency converters manufactured by Gresham are used by navel warships to
345
+ convert their generated 60-cycle electricity supply to 400
346
+ cycles. This 400-cycle supply is used to power their critical
347
+ equipment such as gyro, compass, and weapons systems. Gresham also
348
+ designs and manufactures transformer rectifiers for naval
349
+ use. Typically, these provide battery supported back up for critical
350
+ DC systems, such as machinery and communications. In addition, higher
351
+ power rectifiers are used for the starting and servicing of helicopters on naval
352
+ vessels, and Gresham now supplies these as part of overall helicopter start and
353
+ servicing systems. We believe that Gresham products add diversity to
354
+ our product line, provide greater access to the United Kingdom and European
355
+ markets, and strengthen our engineering and technical resources. For
356
+ the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, Gresham contributed approximately
357
+ 51% and 53%, respectively, to our gross revenues.
358
+ Manufacturing
359
+ and Testing
360
+ Consistent
361
+ with our strategy of focusing on custom design products and high-grade
362
+ flexibility series products, we aim to maintain a high degree of flexibility in
363
+ our manufacturing through the use of strategically focused contract
364
+ manufacturers. We select contract manufacturers to ensure that
365
+ they will meet our near term cost, delivery, and quality goals. In
366
+ addition, we believe these relationships will eventually give us access to new
367
+ markets and beneficial cross-licensing opportunities. The competitive
368
+ nature of the power supply industry has placed continual downward pressure on
369
+ selling prices. In order to achieve our low cost manufacturing goals
370
+ with labor-intensive products, we have entered into production agreements with
371
+ certain contract manufacturers in Asia. At present, our principal
372
+ contract manufacturers in Asia are Winco-Power Technology, Shenzhen Watt
373
+ Electronics, Ultra Level Tech Co. Ltd, and Acropolis, Energy Recovery
374
+ Products.
375
+ We sell
376
+ certain products that are developed, manufactured and sold to us by Telkoor, an
377
+ Israeli company that currently holds 43.7% of our outstanding common
378
+ stock. In coordination with Telkoor, and in order to accelerate
379
+ delivery and reduce the cost of some of the products we purchase from Telkoor,
380
+ we have obtained the right to order products directly from Telkoor’s contract
381
+ manufacturers, as well as from our own contract manufacturers in China, in
382
+ exchange for the payment of a commission to Telkoor.
383
+ 5
384
+ We are
385
+ continually improving our internal processes, while monitoring the processes of
386
+ our contract manufacturers, to ensure the highest quality and consistent
387
+ manufacturing of our power solutions. We test all of our custom power assemblies
388
+ per clearly defined test procedures developed by us and our customers. This
389
+ approach ensures that our customers can use our systems right out of the box.
390
+ Customer specific testing services are offered with custom designed test stands
391
+ to simulate operation within our customer applications.
392
+ Compliance
393
+ with international safety agency standards is critical in every application, and
394
+ power solutions play a major role in meeting these compliance requirements. Our
395
+ safety engineers and quality assurance teams help ensure that our custom
396
+ products are designed to meet all safety requirements and are appropriately
397
+ documented to expedite safety approval processes.
398
+ Regulatory
399
+ Requirements
400
+ We and
401
+ our manufacturing partners are required to meet applicable regulatory,
402
+ environmental, emissions, safety and other requirements where specified by the
403
+ customer and accepted by us or as required by local regulatory or legal
404
+ requirements. The products that we market and sell in Europe may be
405
+ subject to the 2003 European Directive on Restriction of Hazardous Substances
406
+ (“RoHS”), which restricts the use of six hazardous materials in the manufacture
407
+ of certain electronic and electrical equipment, as well as the 2002 European
408
+ Directive on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (“WEEE”), which
409
+ determines collection, recycling and recovery goals for electrical
410
+ goods. In July 2006, our industry began phasing in RoHS and WEEE
411
+ requirements in most geographical markets with specific emphasis on
412
+ consumer-based products. We believe that RoHS and
413
+ WEEE-compliant components may be subject to longer lead-times and higher prices
414
+ as the industry transitions to these new requirements.
415
+ Some of
416
+ our products are subject to ITAR, which is administered by the U.S. Department
417
+ of State. ITAR controls not only the export of certain products specifically
418
+ designed, modified, configured or adapted for military systems, but also the
419
+ export of related technical data and defense services as well as foreign
420
+ production. We obtain required export licenses for any exports subject to ITAR.
421
+ Compliance with ITAR may require a prolonged period of time; if the process of
422
+ obtaining required export licenses for products subject to ITAR is delayed, it
423
+ could have a materially adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and
424
+ operating results. Any future restrictions or charges imposed by the United
425
+ States or any other country on our international sales or sales by the
426
+ operations of Gresham, our foreign subsidiary, could have a materially adverse
427
+ effect on our business, financial condition, and operating results. In addition,
428
+ from time to time, we have entered into contracts with the Israeli Ministry of
429
+ Defense, which contracts were funded with monies subject to, and we therefore
430
+ were required to comply with the regulations governing, the U.S. Foreign
431
+ Military Financing program.
432
+ Sales
433
+ and Marketing
434
+ We market
435
+ our products directly through our internal sales force as well as through a
436
+ partner network of independent manufacturer representatives and
437
+ distributors. Each representative organization is responsible for
438
+ managing sales in a particular geographic territory. Generally, the
439
+ representative has the opportunity to earn an exclusive access to all potential
440
+ customers in the assigned territory as a result of achieving its marketing and
441
+ sales goals as defined in the representative agreement. Our manufacturer
442
+ representative agreements provide for a commission equal to 5% of net sales,
443
+ payable after the product is shipped, for any direct sale
444
+ contribution. Typically, either we or the representative organization
445
+ may terminate the agreement with 30 days’ written notice.
446
+ Historically,
447
+ we have also sold products through multiple distributor arrangements which do
448
+ not specify a particular territory. Each of these arrangements can be
449
+ terminated by either party with 30 days’ written notice.
450
+ Our
451
+ promotional efforts, to date, have included product data sheets, participation
452
+ in trade shows, and our website, www.digipwr.com. We use the
453
+ corporate website to emphasize our capabilities and marketing direction. All
454
+ products specifications are uploaded onto our website and accessible to the
455
+ marketplace. We will continue to enhance our website by adding more features and
456
+ functionalities, such as ecommerce, that will allow our customers to buy
457
+ directly through our website. Our future promotional activities will
458
+ likely include advertising in industry-specific publications, as well as public
459
+ relations for our new products.
460
+ 6
461
+ Engineering
462
+ and Technology
463
+ Our
464
+ engineering and product development efforts are primarily directed toward
465
+ developing new products in connection with custom product design and
466
+ modification of our standard power systems to provide a broad array of
467
+ individual models. In the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, we
468
+ expended a total of $556,000 and $622,000, respectively, on engineering and
469
+ product development.
470
+ Our new
471
+ custom product design solutions are driven by our ability to provide to our
472
+ customers advanced technology that meets their product needs with a short
473
+ turnaround time and a very competitive price point. We believe that we are
474
+ successfully executing our strategic account focus, as evidenced by the award of
475
+ second and third generation product development contracts from some of these
476
+ customers. Our standard contract for custom power solutions includes
477
+ a multi-year high-volume production forecast that could allow us to secure
478
+ long-term production guarantees while providing an environment that promotes the
479
+ development of our IP portfolio.
480
+ We also
481
+ partner with various design and contract engineering firms for development of
482
+ some of our new products supported by our internal engineering services
483
+ staff. Furthermore, we continue to leverage the close relationship we
484
+ have with one of our major shareholders, Telkoor, to introduce new products that
485
+ Telkoor develops for its market and makes available for us. Finally, from time
486
+ to time we modify standard products to meet specific customer requirements when
487
+ applicable. We continually seek to improve our product
488
+ power density, adaptability, and efficiency, while attempting to anticipate
489
+ changing market demands for increased functionality, such as PFC (power factor
490
+ correction) and improved EMI (electromagnetic interference) filtering. We are
491
+ experiencing an increasing demand for ruggedization of commercial products for
492
+ military applications. To meet that requirement, our engineering team continues
493
+ to ruggedize commercial products, which we sell as commercial off the shelf
494
+ products to some of our military customers. We continue to differentiate all of
495
+ our products from commodity type products by enhancing,, modifying and
496
+ customizing our existing product portfolio, using our Freemont, California
497
+ engineering lab.
498
+ Competition
499
+ The power
500
+ system solutions industry is highly fragmented and characterized by intense
501
+ competition. Our competition includes hundreds of companies located
502
+ throughout the world, some of whom have advantages over us in terms of labor and
503
+ component costs, and some of whom may offer products comparable in quality to
504
+ ours. Many of our competitors, including Power-One, Emerson (Astec)
505
+ Technologies, Inc., Lambda Electronics, and Mean-Well Power Supplies, have
506
+ substantially greater fiscal and marketing resources and geographic presence
507
+ than we do. If we are successful in increasing our revenues,
508
+ competitors may notice and increase competition with our
509
+ customers. We also face competition from current and prospective
510
+ customers who may decide to design and manufacture internally power supplies
511
+ needed for their products. Furthermore, certain larger OEMs tend to
512
+ contract only with larger power supply manufacturers.
513
+ In April
514
+ 2008, Telkoor, one of our major shareholders and strategic suppliers, signed a
515
+ “Private Label” agreement with Murata Power Solutions in Canada to sell
516
+ Telkoor’s products under the Murata brand name. This agreement positions Murata
517
+ as a direct competitor of ours with respect to the sale of Telkoor’s products in
518
+ North America.
519
+ We
520
+ anticipate that with the current economic downturn, additional competitors may
521
+ enter into strategic alliances or even acquisitions. Competition
522
+ could thus become more problematic if consolidation trends in the electronics
523
+ industry continue and some of the OEMs to whom we sell our products are acquired
524
+ by larger OEMs. To remain competitive, we must continue to compete
525
+ favorably on the basis of value by providing reliable manufacturing, offering
526
+ customer-driven engineering services including custom design and manufacturing,
527
+ continuously improving quality and reliability levels, and offering flexible and
528
+ reliable delivery schedules.
529
+ 7
530
+ We
531
+ believe that our power system solutions and advanced product design have
532
+ significant advantages in the power supply solutions market because they have
533
+ higher efficiency and high power density, or power-to-volume ratio, which make
534
+ them smaller than the solutions offered by our competitors and can thus fit well
535
+ in numerous custom environments in compliance with our customers’
536
+ requirements.
537
+ Another
538
+ advantage of our power system solutions product line is based on the “Flexible”
539
+ series that employs adjustable power range of product design. We
540
+ believe we have a competitive position with our targeted customers who need a
541
+ high-quality, compact product, which can be readily modified to meet the
542
+ customer’s unique requirements. We have designed the base model power
543
+ system platform so that it can be quickly and economically modified and adapted
544
+ to the specific power needs of any hosting platform or OEM. This
545
+ “flexibility” approach has allowed us to provide samples of modified power
546
+ systems to OEM customers in only a few days after initial consultation, an
547
+ important capability given the emphasis placed by OEMs on “time to market.” It
548
+ also results in very low non recurring engineering (“NRE”)
549
+ expenses. Because of reduced NRE expenses, we do not generally charge
550
+ our OEM customers for NRE related to tailoring a power system to a customer’s
551
+ specific requirements. We believe this gives us an advantage over our
552
+ competitors, many of whom do charge their customers for NRE
553
+ expenses.
554
+ Raw
555
+ Materials
556
+ The raw
557
+ materials for power supplies principally consist of electronic
558
+ components. These raw materials are available from a variety of
559
+ sources, and we are not dependent on any one supplier. We generally
560
+ allow our subcontractors to purchase components based on orders received or
561
+ forecasts to minimize our risk of unusable inventory. To the extent
562
+ necessary, we may allow them to procure materials prior to orders received to
563
+ obtain shorter lead times and to achieve quantity discounts following a risk
564
+ assessment. In addition, we have decided to directly procure certain
565
+ long lead-time electronic components in an effort to reduce our
566
+ lead-time.
567
+ Because
568
+ of the global recession, many raw material vendors have reduced capacities,
569
+ closed production lines and, in some cases, even discontinued their operations.
570
+ As a result, there is a global shortage of certain electronic components, which
571
+ has extended our production lead-time and our production costs. For
572
+ example, in some cases, finished goods that used to be available in 12 weeks for
573
+ a production purchase order are now available only after 22
574
+ weeks. Also, some materials are no longer available to support some
575
+ of our products, thereby requiring us to search for cross materials or, even
576
+ worse, redesign some of our products to support currently-available
577
+ materials.
578
+ Intellectual
579
+ Property
580
+ We rely
581
+ upon a combination of trade secrets, industry expertise, confidential
582
+ procedures, and contractual provisions to protect our intellectual
583
+ property. We believe that because our products are continually
584
+ updated and revised, obtaining patents would be costly and not beneficial.
585
+ However, in the future, as we continue to develop unique core technology, we may
586
+ seek to obtain patents for some of the core technology. On July 8,
587
+ 2004, our trademark, “DP Digital Power – Powering Your Technologies,” was
588
+ registered with the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
589
+ Employees
590
+ As of
591
+ December 31, 2009, we had 33 employees located in the United States and the
592
+ United Kingdom, of whom six were engaged in engineering and product development,
593
+ nine in sales and marketing, eleven in general operations and seven in general
594
+ administration and finance. All but five of these employees are
595
+ employed on a full-time basis. None of our employees are currently
596
+ represented by a trade union. We consider our relations with our employees to be
597
+ good.

601
+ RISK
602
+ FACTORS.
603
+ The risk
604
+ factors listed in this section provide examples of risks, uncertainties and
605
+ events that may cause our actual results to differ materially from the
606
+ expectations we describe in our forward-looking statements. Readers should be
607
+ aware that the occurrence of any of the events described in these risk factors
608
+ could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and
609
+ financial condition. We undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any
610
+ forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future
611
+ events, or otherwise.
612
+ We
613
+ experienced an operating loss and a net loss during the year ended December 31,
614
+ 2009, we have historically experienced net losses and we may experience net
615
+ losses in the future.
616
+ For the
617
+ year ended December 31, 2009, we had an operating loss of $102,000 and net loss
618
+ of $148,000, compared to an operating income of $391,000 and net income of
619
+ $558,000for the year ended December 31, 2008. Although we have
620
+ actively taken steps to reduce our costs, we may continue to incur operating and
621
+ net losses in the future until we increase revenues by selling current and
622
+ custom design products, transitioning to production stage of our custom design
623
+ products and decreasing manufacturing costs through a greater use of contract
624
+ manufacturers in Asia and other strategic locations.
625
+ We
626
+ depend on Telkoor to design and manufacture some of our products.
627
+ We depend
628
+ on Telkoor, our largest shareholder and one of our third party subcontractors,
629
+ for design and manufacturing capabilities for some of the products that we sell.
630
+ If Telkoor is unable or unwilling to continue designing or manufacturing our
631
+ products in required volumes and with a certain level of quality on a timely
632
+ basis, that could lead to loss of sales and adversely affect our operating
633
+ results and cash position. We also depend on Telkoor's intellectual property and
634
+ ability to transfer production to third party manufacturers. Failure to obtain
635
+ new products in a timely manner or delay in delivery of product to customers
636
+ will have an adverse effect on our ability to meet our customers’
637
+ expectations. In addition, we operate in highly competitive markets
638
+ where our ability to sell Telkoor’s products could be adversely affected by
639
+ Telkoor’s agreements with other companies, long lead-times and the high cost of
640
+ Telkoor’s products. In April 2008, for example, Telkoor signed a
641
+ “Private Label” agreement with Murata Power Solutions in Canada to sell
642
+ Telkoor’s products under the Murata brand name, which agreement positions Murata
643
+ as a direct competitor of ours with respect to the sale of Telkoor’s products in
644
+ North America. Also, in 2009, Telkoor’s manufacturing lead-times
645
+ increased, which has hindered our ability to respond to our customers’
646
+ needs. Telkoor’s principal offices, research and development and
647
+ manufacturing facilities are located in Israel. Political, economic, and
648
+ military conditions in Israel directly affect Telkoor’s
649
+ operations. We are also dependent upon Telkoor’s terms and conditions
650
+ with its contract manufacturers for some of our products, which terms and
651
+ conditions may not always be in our best interest.
652
+ We
653
+ are dependent upon our ability, and our contract manufacturers’ ability, to
654
+ timely procure electronic components.
655
+ Because
656
+ of the global recession, many raw material vendors have reduced capacities,
657
+ closed production lines and, in some cases, even discontinued their operations.
658
+ As a result, there is a global shortage of certain electronic components, which
659
+ has extended our production lead-time and our production costs. For
660
+ example, in some cases, finished goods that used to be available in 12 weeks for
661
+ a production purchase order are now available only after 22
662
+ weeks. Also, some materials are no longer available to support some
663
+ of our products, thereby requiring us to search for cross materials or, even
664
+ worse, redesign some of our products to support currently-available
665
+ materials. Such redesign efforts may require certain regulatory and
666
+ safety agency re-submittals, which may cause further production
667
+ delays. While we have initiated
668
+ actions that we believe will limit our exposure to such problems, the dynamic
669
+ business conditions in many of our markets may challenge the solutions that have
670
+ been put in place, and issues may recur in the future.
671
+ In
672
+ addition, some of our products are manufactured, assembled and tested by third
673
+ party subcontractors and contract manufacturers located in Asia. While we have
674
+ had relationships with many of these third parties in the past, we cannot
675
+ predict how or whether these relationships will continue in the future. In
676
+ addition, changes in management, financial viability, manufacturing demand or
677
+ capacity, or other factors, at these third parties could hurt our ability to
678
+ have our products manufactured.
679
+ 9
680
+ Our
681
+ strategic focus on our custom power supply solution competencies and concurrent
682
+ cost reduction plans may be ineffective or may limit our ability to
683
+ compete.
684
+ As a
685
+ result of our strategic focus on custom power supply solutions, we will continue
686
+ to devote significant resources to developing custom products for a large number
687
+ of customers, where each product represents a uniquely tailored solution for a
688
+ specific customer’s requirements. A failure to meet these customer
689
+ product requirements or a failure to meet production schedules and/or product
690
+ quality standards may put us at risk with one or more of these
691
+ customers. The loss of one or more of our significant custom power
692
+ supply solution customers could have a material adverse impact on our revenues,
693
+ business or financial condition.
694
+ We have
695
+ also implemented a series of initiatives designed to increase efficiency and
696
+ reduce costs. While we believe that these actions will reduce costs,
697
+ they may not be sufficient to achieve the required operational efficiencies that
698
+ will enable us to respond more quickly to changes in the market or result in the
699
+ improvements in our business that we anticipate. In such event, we may be forced
700
+ to take additional cost-reducing initiatives, which may negatively impact
701
+ quarterly earnings and profitability as we account for severance and other
702
+ related costs. In addition, there is the risk that such measures could have
703
+ long-term adverse effects on our business by reducing our pool of talent,
704
+ decreasing or slowing improvements in our products or services, making it more
705
+ difficult for us to respond to customers, limiting our ability to increase
706
+ production quickly if and when the demand for our solutions increases and
707
+ limiting our ability to hire and retain key personnel. These circumstances could
708
+ cause our earnings to be lower than they otherwise might be.
709
+ If
710
+ our new custom products development efforts fail to result in products that meet
711
+ our customers’ needs, or if our customers fail to accept our new products, our
712
+ revenues will be adversely affected.
713
+ We have
714
+ recently introduced a new strategy of developing multiple custom product
715
+ designs. The commercial success of this new technology will depend on a number
716
+ of factors, including the successful development of the custom products, our
717
+ ability to meet customer requirements, our ability to meet all product criteria,
718
+ successful transition from development stage to production stage, our ability to
719
+ meet product cost targets generating acceptable margins, timely remediation of
720
+ product performance issues, if any, identified during testing, product
721
+ performance at customer locations, differentiation of our product from our
722
+ competitors’ products, and management of customer expectations concerning
723
+ product capabilities and life cycles. If we fail to accomplish all of
724
+ the above, our business could be materially and adversely affected.
725
+ We
726
+ are dependent upon our ability to attract, retain and motivate our key
727
+ personnel.
728
+ Our
729
+ success depends on our ability to attract, retain and motivate our key
730
+ management personnel, including, but not limited to, our CEO and CFO, sales
731
+ force, and key engineers, necessary to implement our business plan and to grow
732
+ our business. Despite the adverse economic conditions at this time, and
733
+ occurring over the past several years, competition for certain specific
734
+ technical and management skill sets is intense. If we are unable to identify and
735
+ hire the personnel that we need to succeed, or if one or more of our present key
736
+ employees were to cease to be associated with us, our future results could be
737
+ adversely affected.
738
+ We
739
+ depend upon a few major customers for a majority of our revenues, and the loss
740
+ of any of these customers, or the substantial reduction in the quantity of
741
+ products that they purchase from us, would significantly reduce our revenues and
742
+ net income.
743
+ We
744
+ currently depend upon a few major OEMs and other customers for a significant
745
+ portion of our revenues. Because of the global economic downturn, we have
746
+ already experienced a reduction of orders by OEMs and a reduction or
747
+ cancellation of orders, scaling back of certain activities and workforce layoffs
748
+ by other customers. The loss of any of these customers, or a
749
+ substantial reduction in the quantity of products that they purchase from us,
750
+ would significantly reduce our revenues and net income. Furthermore, diversions
751
+ in the capital spending of certain of these customers to new network elements
752
+ have and could continue to lead to their reduced demand for our products, which
753
+ could, in turn, have a material adverse effect on our business and results of
754
+ operations. If the financial condition of one or more of our major customers
755
+ should deteriorate, or if they have difficulty acquiring investment capital due
756
+ to any of these or other factors, a substantial decrease in our revenues would
757
+ likely result.
758
+ 10
759
+ We
760
+ are dependent on the electronic equipment industry, and accordingly will be
761
+ affected by the impact on that industry by the current economic
762
+ downturn.
763
+ Substantially
764
+ all of our existing customers are in the electronic equipment industry, and they
765
+ manufacture products that are subject to rapid technological change,
766
+ obsolescence, and large fluctuations in demand. This industry is
767
+ further characterized by intense competition and volatility. The OEMs
768
+ serving this industry are pressured for increased product performance and lower
769
+ product prices. OEMs, in turn, make similar demands on their
770
+ suppliers, such as us, for increased product performance and lower
771
+ prices. The current economic downturn has affected the entire supply
772
+ chain, including us. Recently, certain segments of the electronic
773
+ industry have experienced a significant softening in product
774
+ demand. Such lower demand may affect our customers, in which case the
775
+ demand for our products may decline and our growth could be adversely
776
+ affected.
777
+ Our
778
+ reliance on subcontract manufacturers to manufacture certain aspects of our
779
+ products involves risks, including delays in product shipments and reduced
780
+ control over product quality.
781
+ Since we
782
+ do not own significant manufacturing facilities, we must rely on, and will
783
+ continue to rely on, a limited number of subcontract manufacturers to
784
+ manufacture our power supply products. Our reliance upon such subcontract
785
+ manufacturers involves several risks, including reduced control over
786
+ manufacturing costs, delivery times, reliability and quality of components,
787
+ unfavorable currency exchange fluctuations, and continued inflationary pressures
788
+ on many of the raw materials used in the manufacturing of our power supply
789
+ products. If we were to encounter a shortage of key manufacturing components
790
+ from limited sources of supply, or experience manufacturing delays caused by
791
+ reduced manufacturing capacity, inability of our subcontract manufacturers to
792
+ procure raw materials, the loss of key assembly subcontractors, difficulties
793
+ associated with the transition to our new subcontract manufacturers or other
794
+ factors, we could experience lost revenues, increased costs, and delays in, or
795
+ cancellations or rescheduling of, orders or shipments, any of which would
796
+ materially harm our business.
797
+ We
798
+ outsource, and are dependent upon developer partners for, the development of
799
+ some of our custom design products.
800
+ We made
801
+ an operational decision to outsource some of our custom design products to
802
+ numerous developer partners. This business structure will remain in place until
803
+ the custom design volume justifies expanding our in house capabilities.
804
+ Incomplete product designs that do not fully comply with the customer
805
+ specifications and requirements might affect our ability to transition to a
806
+ volume production stage of the custom designed product where the revenue goals
807
+ are dependent on the high volume of custom product production. Furthermore, we
808
+ rely on the design partners’ ability to provide high quality prototypes of the
809
+ designed product for our customer approval as a critical stage to approve
810
+ production.
811
+ We face intense industry competition,
812
+ price erosion and product obsolescence, which, in turn, could reduce our
813
+ profitability .
814
+ We
815
+ operate in an industry that is generally characterized by intense competition.
816
+ We believe that the principal bases of competition in our markets are breadth of
817
+ product line, quality of products, stability, reliability and reputation of the
818
+ provider, along with cost. Quantity discounts, price erosion, and rapid product
819
+ obsolescence due to technological improvements are therefore common in our
820
+ industry as competitors strive to retain or expand market share. Product
821
+ obsolescence can lead to increases in unsaleable inventory that may need to be
822
+ written off and, therefore, could reduce our profitability. Similarly, price
823
+ erosion can reduce our profitability by decreasing our revenues and our gross
824
+ margins. In fact, we have seen price erosion over the last several years on most
825
+ of the products we sell, and we expect additional price erosion in the
826
+ future.
827
+ 11
828
+ Our
829
+ future results are dependent on our ability to establish, maintain and expand
830
+ our OEM relationships and our other distribution channels.
831
+ We market
832
+ and sell our products through domestic and international OEM relationships and
833
+ other distribution channels. Our future results are dependent on our ability to
834
+ establish, maintain and expand our relationships with OEMs as well as with other
835
+ marketing and sales distribution channels. If, however, the third parties with
836
+ whom we have entered into such OEM and other arrangements should fail to meet
837
+ their contractual obligations, cease doing, or reduce the amount of their,
838
+ business with us or otherwise fail to meet their own performance objectives,
839
+ customer demand for our products could be adversely affected, which would have
840
+ an adverse effect on our revenues.
841
+ We
842
+ may not be able to procure necessary key components for our products, or we may
843
+ purchase too much inventory or the wrong inventory.
844
+ The power
845
+ supply industry, and the electronics industry as a whole, can be subject to
846
+ business cycles. During periods of growth
847
+ and high demand for our products, we may not have adequate supplies of inventory
848
+ on hand to satisfy our customers' needs. Furthermore, during these periods of
849
+ growth, our suppliers may also experience high demand and, therefore, may not
850
+ have adequate levels of the components and other materials that we require to
851
+ build products so that we can meet our customers' needs. Our inability to
852
+ secure sufficient components to build products for our customers could
853
+ negatively impact our sales and operating results. We may choose to mitigate
854
+ this risk by increasing the levels of inventory for certain key components.
855
+ Increased inventory levels can increase the potential risk for excess and
856
+ obsolescence should our forecasts fail to materialize or if there are negative
857
+ factors impacting our customers’ end markets. If we purchase too much inventory
858
+ or the wrong inventory, we may have to record additional inventory reserves or
859
+ write-off the inventory, which could have a material adverse effect on our gross
860
+ margins and on our results of operations.
861
+ We
862
+ depend on sales of our legacy products for a meaningful portion of our revenues,
863
+ but these products are mature and their sales will continue to
864
+ decline.
865
+ A large
866
+ portion of our sales have historically been attributable to our legacy products.
867
+ We expect that these products may continue to account for a meaningful
868
+ percentage of our revenues for the foreseeable future. However, these sales are
869
+ declining. Although we are unable to predict future prices for our legacy
870
+ products, we expect that prices for these products will continue to be subject
871
+ to significant downward pressure in certain markets for the reasons described
872
+ above. Accordingly, our ability to maintain or increase revenues will be
873
+ dependent on our ability to expand our customer base, to increase unit sales
874
+ volumes of these products and to successfully, develop, introduce and sell new
875
+ products such as custom design and value added products. We cannot assure you
876
+ that we will be able to expand our customer base, increase unit sales volumes of
877
+ existing products or develop, introduce and/or sell new products.
878
+ Our operating results may vary from
879
+ quarter to quarter.
880
+ Our
881
+ operating results have in the past been subject to quarter-to-quarter
882
+ fluctuations, and we expect that these fluctuations will continue, and may
883
+ increase in magnitude, in future periods. Demand for our products is driven by
884
+ many factors, including the availability of funding for our products in
885
+ customers’ capital budgets. There is a trend for some of our customers to place
886
+ large orders near the end of a quarter or fiscal year, in part to spend
887
+ remaining available capital budget funds. Seasonal fluctuations in customer
888
+ demand for our products driven by budgetary and other concerns can create
889
+ corresponding fluctuations in period-to-period revenues, and we therefore cannot
890
+ assure you that our results in one period are necessarily indicative of our
891
+ revenues in any future period. In addition, the number and timing of large
892
+ individual sales and the ability to obtain acceptances of those sales, where
893
+ applicable, have been difficult for us to predict, and large individual sales
894
+ have, in some cases, occurred in quarters subsequent to those we anticipated, or
895
+ have not occurred at all. The loss or deferral of one or more significant sales
896
+ in a quarter could harm our operating results. It is possible that, in some
897
+ quarters, our operating results will be below the expectations of public market
898
+ analysts or investors. In such events, or in the event adverse conditions
899
+ prevail, the market price of our common stock may decline
900
+ significantly.
901
+ 12
902
+ Failure
903
+ of our information technology infrastructure to operate effectively could
904
+ adversely affect our business.
905
+ We depend
906
+ heavily on information technology infrastructure to achieve our business
907
+ objectives. If a problem occurs that impairs this infrastructure, the resulting
908
+ disruption could impede our ability to record or process orders, manufacture and
909
+ ship in a timely manner, or otherwise carry on business in the normal course.
910
+ Any such events could cause us to lose customers or revenue and could require us
911
+ to incur significant expense to remediate.
912
+ We
913
+ are subject to certain governmental regulatory restrictions relating to our
914
+ international sales.
915
+ Some of
916
+ our products are subject to ITAR rules, which are administered by the
917
+ U.S. Department of State. ITAR controls not only the export, import and
918
+ trade of certain products specifically designed, modified, configured or adapted
919
+ for military systems, but also the export of related technical data and defense
920
+ services as well as foreign production. Any delays in obtaining the
921
+ required export, import or trade licenses for products subject to ITAR rules
922
+ could have a materially adverse effect on our business, financial condition,
923
+ and/or operating results. In addition, changes in United States
924
+ export and import laws that require us to obtain additional export and import
925
+ licenses or delays in obtaining export or import licenses currently being sought
926
+ could cause significant shipment delays and, if such delays are too great, could
927
+ result in the cancellation of orders. Any future restrictions or charges imposed
928
+ by the United States or any other country on our international sales or foreign
929
+ subsidiary could have a materially adverse effect on our business, financial
930
+ condition, and/or operating results. In addition, from time to time, we have
931
+ entered into contracts with the Israeli Ministry of Defense which were funded
932
+ with monies subject to, and we therefore were required to comply with the
933
+ regulations governing, the U.S. Foreign Military Financing
934
+ program. Any such future sales would be subject to such
935
+ regulations.
936
+ We
937
+ depend on international operations for a substantial majority of our components
938
+ and products.
939
+ We
940
+ purchase a substantial majority of our components from foreign manufacturers and
941
+ have a substantial majority of our commercial products assembled, packaged, and
942
+ tested by subcontractors located outside the United States. These activities are
943
+ subject to the uncertainties associated with international business operations,
944
+ including trade barriers and other restrictions, changes in trade policies,
945
+ governmental regulations, currency exchange fluctuations, reduced protection for
946
+ intellectual property, war and other military activities, terrorism, changes in
947
+ social, political, or economic conditions, and other disruptions or delays in
948
+ production or shipments, any of which could have a materially adverse effect on
949
+ our business, financial condition, and/or operating results.
950
+ We
951
+ depend on international sales for a portion of our revenues.
952
+ Sales to
953
+ customers outside of North America accounted for 50.8% of net revenues in the
954
+ year ended December 31, 2009 and for 55.7% of net revenues in the year ended
955
+ December 31, 2008, and we expect that international sales will continue to
956
+ represent a material portion of our total revenues. International sales are
957
+ subject to the risks of international business operations as described above, as
958
+ well as generally longer payment cycles, greater difficulty collecting accounts
959
+ receivable, and currency restrictions. In addition, DPL, our
960
+ wholly-owned foreign subsidiary in the United Kingdom, supports our European and
961
+ other international customers, distributors, and sales representatives, and
962
+ therefore is also subject to local regulation. International sales
963
+ are also subject to the export laws and regulations of the United States and
964
+ other countries.
965
+ If
966
+ our accounting controls and procedures are circumvented or otherwise fail to
967
+ achieve their intended purposes, our business could be seriously
968
+ harmed.
969
+ We
970
+ evaluate our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of each fiscal
971
+ quarter, and are annually reviewing and evaluating our internal control over
972
+ financial reporting in order to comply with Securities and Exchange Commission
973
+ (“SEC”) rules relating to internal control over financial reporting adopted
974
+ pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Because of its inherent limitations,
975
+ internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect
976
+ misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future
977
+ periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of
978
+ changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or
979
+ procedures may deteriorate. If we fail to maintain effective internal control
980
+ over financial reporting or our management does not timely assess the adequacy
981
+ of such internal control, we may be subject to regulatory sanctions, and our
982
+ reputation may decline.
983
+ 13
984
+ The
985
+ sale of our products is dependent upon our ability to satisfy the proprietary
986
+ requirements of our customers.
987
+ We depend
988
+ upon a relatively narrow range of products for the majority of our revenue. Our
989
+ success in marketing our products is dependent upon their continued acceptance
990
+ by our customers. In some cases, our customers require that our products meet
991
+ their own proprietary requirements. If we are unable to satisfy such
992
+ requirements, or forecast and adapt to changes in such requirements, our
993
+ business could be materially harmed.
994
+ The
995
+ sale of our products is dependent on our ability to respond to rapid
996
+ technological change, including evolving industry-wide standards, and may be
997
+ adversely affected by the development, and acceptance by our customers, of new
998
+ technologies which may compete with, or reduce the demand for, our
999
+ products.
1000
+ Rapid
1001
+ technological change, including evolving industry standards, could render our
1002
+ products obsolete. To the extent our customers adopt such new technology in
1003
+ place of our products, the sales of our products may be adversely affected. Such
1004
+ competition may also increase pricing pressure for our products and adversely
1005
+ affect the revenues from such products.
1006
+ Our
1007
+ limited ability to protect our proprietary information and technology may
1008
+ adversely affect our ability to compete, and our products could infringe upon
1009
+ the intellectual property rights of others, resulting in claims against us, the
1010
+ results of which could be costly.
1011
+ Many of
1012
+ our products consist entirely or partly of proprietary technology owned by us.
1013
+ Although we seek to protect our technology through a combination of copyrights,
1014
+ trade secret laws and contractual obligations, these protections may not be
1015
+ sufficient to prevent the wrongful appropriation of our intellectual property,
1016
+ nor will they prevent our competitors from independently developing technologies
1017
+ that are substantially equivalent or superior to our proprietary technology. In
1018
+ addition, the laws of some foreign countries do not protect our proprietary
1019
+ rights to the same extent as the laws of the United States. In order to defend
1020
+ our proprietary rights in the technology utilized in our products from third
1021
+ party infringement, we may be required to institute legal proceedings, which
1022
+ would be costly and would divert our resources from the development of our
1023
+ business. If we are unable to successfully assert and defend our
1024
+ proprietary rights in the technology utilized in our products, our future
1025
+ results could be adversely affected.
1026
+ Although
1027
+ we attempt to avoid infringing known proprietary rights of third parties in our
1028
+ product development efforts, we may become subject to legal proceedings and
1029
+ claims for alleged infringement from time to time in the ordinary course of
1030
+ business. Any claims relating to the infringement of third-party proprietary
1031
+ rights, even if not meritorious, could result in costly litigation, divert
1032
+ management’s attention and resources, require us to reengineer or cease sales of
1033
+ our products or require us to enter into royalty or license agreements which are
1034
+ not advantageous to us. In addition, parties making claims may be able to obtain
1035
+ an injunction, which could prevent us from selling our products in the United
1036
+ States or abroad.
1037
+ If
1038
+ we are unable to satisfy our customers’ specific product quality, certification
1039
+ or network requirements, our business could be disrupted and our financial
1040
+ condition could be harmed.
1041
+ Our
1042
+ customers demand that our products meet stringent quality, performance and
1043
+ reliability standards. We have, from time to time, experienced problems in
1044
+ satisfying such standards. Defects or failures have occurred in the past, and
1045
+ may in the future occur, relating to our product quality, performance and
1046
+ reliability. From time to time, our customers also require us to implement
1047
+ specific changes to our products to allow these products to operate within their
1048
+ specific network configurations. If we are unable to remedy these failures or
1049
+ defects or if we cannot effect such required product modifications, we could
1050
+ experience lost revenues, increased costs, including inventory write-offs,
1051
+ warranty expense and costs associated with customer support, delays in, or
1052
+ cancellations or rescheduling of, orders or shipments and product returns or
1053
+ discounts, any of which would harm our business.
1054
+ 14
1055
+ If
1056
+ we ship products that contain defects, the market acceptance of our products and
1057
+ our reputation will be harmed and our customers could seek to recover their
1058
+ damages from us.
1059
+ Our
1060
+ products are complex, and despite extensive testing, may contain defects or
1061
+ undetected errors or failures that may become apparent only after our products
1062
+ have been shipped to our customers and installed in their network or after
1063
+ product features or new versions are released. Any such defect, error or failure
1064
+ could result in failure of market acceptance of our products or damage to our
1065
+ reputation or relations with our customers, resulting in substantial costs for
1066
+ both us and our customers as well as the cancellation of orders, warranty costs
1067
+ and product returns. In addition, any defects, errors, misuse of our products or
1068
+ other potential problems within or out of our control that may arise from the
1069
+ use of our products could result in financial or other damages to our customers.
1070
+ Our customers could seek to have us pay for these losses. Although we maintain
1071
+ product liability insurance, it may not be adequate.
1072
+ Our common stock price is
1073
+ volatile .
1074
+ Our
1075
+ common stock is listed on the NYSE Amex and is thinly traded. In the
1076
+ past, our trading price has fluctuated widely, depending on many factors that
1077
+ may have little to do with our operations or business prospects. The
1078
+ exercise of outstanding options and warrants may adversely affect our stock
1079
+ price and a shareholder’s percentage of ownership. As of December 31,
1080
+ 2009, we have outstanding options to purchase an aggregate of 598,990 shares of
1081
+ common stock, with a weighted average exercise price of $0.98 per share,
1082
+ exercisable at prices ranging from $0.48 to $3.03 per share.

123
+ provide in accordance with such pre-approval.

317

318
+ To
319
+ the Shareholders and board of directors of
320
+ DIGITAL
321
+ POWER CORPORATION
322
+ We have
323
+ audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Digital Power
324
+ Corporation ("the Company") and subsidiary as of December 31, 2009 and 2008 and
325
+ the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders' equity and cash
326
+ flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the
327
+ responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an
328
+ opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
329
+ We
330
+ conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company
331
+ Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan
332
+ and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
333
+ statements are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an
334
+ audit of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Our audits
335
+ included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis
336
+ for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but
337
+ not for the purposes of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the
338
+ Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no
339
+ such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
340
+ supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements assessing the
341
+ accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and
342
+ evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
343
+ audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
344
+ In our
345
+ opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly,
346
+ in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company and
347
+ subsidiary at of December 31, 2009 and 2008 and the consolidated results of
348
+ their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity
349
+ with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

879
+ GENERAL
880
+ a.
881
+ Digital
882
+ Power Corporation (the “Company" or "DPC") was incorporated in 1969, under
883
+ the General Corporation Law of the State of California. The Company and
884
+ Digital Power Limited ("DPL"), a wholly owned subsidiary located in the
885
+ United Kingdom, are currently engaged in the design, manufacture and sale
886
+ of switching power supplies and converters. The Company has two reportable
887
+ geographic segments - North America (sales through DPC) and Europe (sales
888
+ through DPL).
889
+ b.
890
+ The
891
+ Company depends on Telkoor Telecom Ltd. ("Telkoor"), a major shareholder
892
+ of the Company and one of DPC's third party subcontractors, for
893
+ manufacturing capabilities in production of the products which DPC sells.
894
+ If these manufacturers are unable or unwilling to continue manufacturing
895
+ the Company's products in required volumes on a timely basis, that could
896
+ lead to loss of sales, and adversely affect the Company's operating
897
+ results and cash position. The Company also depends on Telkoor's
898
+ intellectual property and ability to transfer production to third party
899
+ manufacturers. Failure to obtain new products in a timely manner or delay
900
+ in delivery of product to customers will have an adverse effect on the
901
+ Company's ability to meet its customers' expectations. See also Note
902
+ 11.

907
+ The
908
+ consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
909
+ generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("U.S.
910
+ GAAP").
911
+ a. Use
912
+ of estimates:
913
+ The
914
+ preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S.
915
+ GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions. The
916
+ Company's management
917
+ believes that the estimates, judgments and assumptions made are reasonable based
918
+ upon information available at the time they are made. These estimates, judgments
919
+ and assumptions can affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
920
+ disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial
921
+ statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the
922
+ reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
923
+ b. Financial
924
+ statements in U.S. dollars:
925
+ A
926
+ substantial portion of the revenues of the Company are generated in U.S. dollars
927
+ ("dollar"). In addition, a substantial portion of the costs of the Company are
928
+ incurred in dollars. The Company's management believes that the dollar is the
929
+ currency of the primary economic environment in which the Company
930
+ operates.

944
+ in accordance with Accounting Codification Statement (“ASC”) 830 (formerly: FASB
945
+ No. 52 “Foreign Currency Translation” (“ASC830”). All balance sheet accounts
946
+ have been translated using the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet
947
+ date. Statement of operations amounts have been translated using the
948
+ average exchange rate for the period. The resulting translation adjustments are
949
+ reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in
950
+ shareholders' equity.
951

952
+ Principles
953
+ of consolidation:
954
+ The
955
+ consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its
956
+ wholly-owned subsidiary. Intercompany transactions and balances have been
957
+ eliminated upon consolidation.
958
+ d.
959
+ Cash
960
+ equivalents:
961
+ Cash
962
+ equivalents are short-term highly liquid investments that are readily
963
+ convertible to cash with original maturities of three months or less at
964
+ acquisition.
965
+ e.
966
+ Restricted
967
+ cash:
968
+ Restricted
969
+ cash is held on account of a letter of credit issued by the Company's bank and
970
+ in respect of future lease payments and for certain customers until the
971
+ guarantee expires. The restricted cash is invested in a deposit.
972
+ f.
973
+ Inventories:
974
+ Inventories
975
+ are stated at the lower of cost or market value. Inventory write-offs are
976
+ provided to cover risks arising from slow-moving items or technological
977
+ obsolescence.
978
+ Cost is
979
+ determined as follows:
980
+ Raw
981
+ materials, parts and supplies - using the "first-in, first-out"
982
+ method.
983
+ Work-in-progress
984
+ and finished products - on the basis of direct manufacturing costs with the
985
+ addition of indirect manufacturing costs.
986
+ The
987
+ Company periodically assesses its inventories valuation in respect of obsolete
988
+ and slow moving items by reviewing revenue forecasts and technological
989
+ obsolescence. When inventories on hand exceed the foreseeable demand or become
990
+ obsolete, the value of excess inventory, which at the time of the review was not
991
+ expected to be sold, is written off.
992
+ During
993
+ 2009 and 2008, the Company recorded inventories write-offs of $38 and $235,
994
+ respectively.

1032
+ Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the
1033
+ carrying amount of an asset to the future undiscounted cash flows expected to be
1034
+ generated by the assets. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the
1035
+ impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying
1036
+ amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. As of December 31,
1037
+ 2009 and 2008, no impairment losses have been identified.
1038

1039
+ Revenue
1040
+ recognition:
1041
+ The
1042
+ Company and its subsidiary generate their revenues from the sale of their
1043
+ products through a direct and indirect sales force.
1044
+ Revenues
1045
+ from products are recognized in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin
1046
+ No. 104, "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements" ("SAB No. 104"),
1047
+ when the following criteria are met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement
1048
+ exists, delivery has occurred, the seller's price to the buyer is fixed or
1049
+ determinable, no further obligation exists and collectability is reasonably
1050
+ assured.
1051
+ Generally,
1052
+ the Company does not grant a right of return. However, certain distributors are
1053
+ allowed, in the sixth month after the initial stock purchase, to rotate stock
1054
+ that has not been sold for other products. This may be repeated every sixth
1055
+ month thereafter for 15-18 months, at no more than a fixed percentage of the
1056
+ distributor's purchase during the previous six months. Revenues subject to stock
1057
+ rotation rights are deferred until the products are sold to the end customer or
1058
+ until the rotation rights expire.
1059
+ Service
1060
+ revenues are deferred and recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of
1061
+ the service agreement. Service revenues are immaterial as a proportion of the
1062
+ Company's revenues.

+ Company and its subsidiary account for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740
1084
+ (Formerly: Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109), “Income Taxes”
1085
+ (“ASC 740”). This Statement prescribes the use of the liability method whereby
1086
+ deferred tax assets and liability account balances are determined based on
1087
+ differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities
1088
+ and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect
1089
+ when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company and its subsidiary
1090
+ provide a valuation allowance, if necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to
1091
+ their estimated realizable value.
1092
+ ASC 740
1093
+ contains a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax
1094
+ positions accounted for in accordance with ASC 740. The first step is to
1095
+ evaluate the tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return by
1096
+ determining if the weight of available evidence indicates that it is more likely
1097
+ than not that, on an evaluation of the technical merits, the tax position will
1098
+ be sustained on audit, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation
1099
+ processes. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount
1100
+ that is more than 50% likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement. No
1101
+ liability for unrecognized tax benefits was recorded as a result of the
1102
+ implementation of ASC 740 as well as of December 31, 2009 and 2008.

1109
+ liability in the amount of such costs at the time product revenue is recognized.
1110
+ Factors that affect the Company's warranty liability include the number of units
1111
+ sold, historical rates of warranty claims and cost per claim. The Company
1112
+ periodically assesses the adequacy of its recorded warranty liability and
1113
+ adjusts the amounts as necessary.

1122
+ (Formerly SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004)), “Share-Based Payment” (“ASC
1123
+ 718”).
1124
+ The award
1125

1138
+ ASC 718
1139
+ requires companies to estimate the fair value of equity-based payment awards on
1140
+ the date of grant using an option-pricing model. The Company
1141
+ estimates the fair value of stock options granted under ASC 718 using the
1142
+ Black-Scholes option-pricing model that uses the assumption as
1143
+ follows:
1144
+ Expected
1145
+ volatility is based on historical volatility that is representative of future
1146
+ volatility over the expected term of the options. The expected term of options
1147
+ granted was determined based on the simplified method, which is calculated as
1148
+ the midpoint between the vesting date and the end of the contractual term of the
1149
+ option. The risk free interest rate is based on the yield of U.S Treasury bonds
1150
+ with equivalent terms. The dividend yield is based on the Company's historical
1151
+ and future expectation of dividends payouts. The Company has not paid cash
1152
+ dividends historically and has no plans to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable
1153
+ future.
1154
+ The
1155
+ Company recognizes compensation expense based on awards ultimately expected to
1156
+ vest, net of estimated forfeitures at the time of grant. Estimated forfeitures
1157
+ are based on historical pre-vesting forfeitures. ASC 718 requires forfeitures to
1158
+ be estimated and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual
1159
+ forfeitures differ from those estimates.
1160
+ The fair
1161

1317

1321
+ Fair
1322
+ value of financial
1323

1324
+ The Company measures its
1325
+ financial instruments at fair value. Fair value is an exit price, representing
1326
+ the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a
1327
+ liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair
1328
+ value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on
1329
+ assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or a
1330
+ liability. A three-tier fair value hierarchy is established as a basis for
1331
+ considering such assumptions and for inputs used in the valuation methodologies
1332
+ in measuring fair value:

+ Derivatives
1421

1422

1423
+ (Formerly Financial Accounting Standard Board Statement No.
1424
+ 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities") ("ASC
1425
+ 815"), as amended, requires the Company to recognize all derivatives on the
1426
+ balance sheet at fair value. Derivatives that are not hedges must be adjusted to
1427
+ fair value through income. If the derivative is a hedge, depending on the nature
1428
+ of the hedge, changes in the fair value of derivatives are either offset against
1429
+ the change in fair value of the hedged assets, liabilities, or firm commitments
1430
+ through earnings or recognized in other comprehensive income until the hedged
1431
+ item is recognized in earnings. The ineffective portion of a derivative's change
1432
+ in fair value is immediately recognized in earnings. The Company uses
1433
+ derivatives to hedge certain cash flow foreign currency exposures in order to
1434
+ further reduce the Company's exposure to foreign currency risks.
1435
+ The
1436
+ Company entered into a forward contract to hedge certain sales transactions with
1437
+ a customer denominated in foreign currencies. The Company's forward contract did
1438
+ not qualify a hedging instrument under ASC 815.
1439
+ As of
1440
+ December 31, 2008 and 2009, the Company had outstanding forward contracts that
1441
+ did not meet the requirement for hedge accounting, in the amount of $115 and
1442
+ $17, respectively. These contracts were for a period of up to nine months. The
1443
+ Company measured the fair value of the contracts in accordance with ASC No. 820
1444
+ at level 2. The net gains (losses) recognized in "financial income, net" during
1445
+ 2008 and 2009 were a loss of $147 and a gain of $63, respectively.

1452
+ Statement establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive
1453
+ income and its components in a full set of general purpose financial statements.
1454
+ Comprehensive income generally represents all changes in stockholders' equity
1455
+ during the period except those resulting from investments by, or distributions
1456
+ to, stockholders. The Company determined that its items of comprehensive income
1457
+ relates to unrealized losses and gains from foreign currency translation
1458
+ adjustments.

1479
+ Recently
1480
+ issued accounting pronouncements:
1481
+ In June
1482
+ 2009, the FASB issued SFAS 168, "The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and
1483
+ the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles". SFAS No. 168,
1484
+ which is incorporated in ASC Topic 105, Generally Accepted Accounting
1485
+ Principles, identifies the accounting standard codification (ASC) as the
1486
+ authoritative source of generally accepted accounting principles in the United
1487
+ States. Rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under federal securities laws
1488
+ are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. Throughout the notes
1489
+ to the consolidated financial statements, references that were previously made
1490
+ to former authoritative U.S. GAAP pronouncements have been changed to coincide
1491
+ with the appropriate section of the ASC.
1492
+ For
1493
+ accounting periods ending after June 15, 2009, new authoritative accounting
1494
+ guidance became effective under ASC Topic 855 (formerly SFAS No. 165) which
1495
+ modifies the definition of what qualifies as a subsequent event—those events or
1496
+ transactions that occur following the balance sheet date, but before the
1497
+ financial statements are issued, or are available to be issued—and requires
1498
+ companies to disclose the date through which it has evaluated subsequent events
1499
+ and the basis for determining that date. The adoption of ASC Topic 855 did not
1500
+ have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations and
1501
+ financial condition.
1502
+ In
1503
+ October 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update, 2009-13, Revenue
1504
+ Recognition (Topic 605) Multiple Deliverable Revenue Arrangements-A Consensus of
1505
+ the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force. This update provides application guidance
1506
+ on whether multiple deliverables exist, how the deliverables should be separated
1507
+ and how the consideration should be allocated to one or more units of
1508
+ accounting. This update establishes a selling price hierarchy for determining
1509
+ the selling price of a deliverable. The selling price used for each deliverable
1510
+ will be based on vendor-specific objective evidence, if available, third-party
1511
+ evidence if vendor-specific objective evidence is not available, or estimated
1512
+ Selling price if neither vendor-specific or third-party evidence is available.
1513
+ The Company will be required to apply this guidance prospectively for revenue
1514
+ arrangements entered into or materially modified after January 1, 2011; however,
1515
+ earlier application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating
1516
+ the impact of the adoption of this new guidance on its financial
1517
+ statements.

1871
+ In 2005
1872
+ and 2006, the Company granted 70,000 options to Telkoor's employees and 100,000
1873
+ options to a non-employee consultant. Of the 70,000 options granted to Telkoor’s
1874
+ employees, 10,000 and 40,000 options were forfeited in 2007 and 2008,
1875
+ respectively, due to termination of employment. Those options vest
1876
+ primarily over four years. The fair value for these options was estimated using
1877
+ a Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions for 2009:
1878
+ risk-free interest rates of 2.5%-2.9%, dividend yield of 0%, volatility of
1879
+ 89.1%-93.9%, and the contractual term of the options of 5.2-5.7
1880

1881
+ Compensation
1882

+ Employee
1887
+ stock ownership plan:
1888
+ The
1889
+ Company has an employee stock ownership plan ("ESOP") covering eligible
1890
+ employees. The ESOP provides for the Employee Stock Ownership Trust ("ESOT") to
1891
+ distribute the Company's Common shares as retirement benefits to the
1892
+ participants. The Company has not distributed shares since 1998. As of December
1893

1894
+ shares.

1896
+ Dividends:
1897
+ In the

1900
+ foreseeable future.

1958
+ As of
1959
+ December 31, 2009 and 2008, the Company and its subsidiary provided a valuation
1960
+ allowance of $ 2,158 and $ 1,852, respectively, in respect of deferred
1961
+ tax asset resulting from short-term temporary differences and depreciation
1962
+ charged in advance of a capital allowance taken, as well as from carryforward
1963
+ losses.
1964
+ Management
1965
+ currently believes that since the Company and its subsidiary have a history of
1966
+ losses, it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets regarding the
1967
+ remainder of the tax loss carryforward and other temporary differences will not
1968

1969

1970
+ Net
1971
+ operating tax losses
1972
+ carryforward:
1973
+ As of
1974
+ December 31, 2009, the Company had approximately $ 3,650 in federal net
1975
+ operating loss carryforward for income tax purposes, which can be carried
1976
+ forward and offset against taxable income for 20 years and expire between 2020
1977
+ and 2030.
1978
+ Utilization
1979
+ of U.S. net operating losses may be subject to substantial annual limitation,
1980
+ due to the "change in ownership" provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986
1981
+ and similar state provisions. The annual limitation may result in the expiration
1982
+ of net operating losses before utilization. The Company believes that, as a
1983
+ result of having undergone an "Ownership change" in 2002 within the meaning of
1984
+ section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, its ability to use its net operating
1985
+ loss carryforward and other tax attributes to offset future U.S. taxable income,
1986
+ and thereby reduce its tax liability, is severely limited.

4
+ Evaluation
5
+ of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
6
+ As of
7
+ December 31, 2009, we have carried out an evaluation, under the supervision of,
8
+ and with the participation of, our management, including our Chief Executive
9
+ Officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and
10
+ operation of our controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the
11
+ Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange
12
+ Act”). Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and
13
+ principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and
14
+ procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) were effective
15
+ as of the end of the period covered by the report to ensure that information
16
+ required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the
17
+ Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time
18
+ periods specified by the SEC's rules and forms, and that such information is
19
+ accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive
20
+ Officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely
21
+ decisions regarding required financial disclosure.
22
+ Management’s
23
+ Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
24
+ Our
25
+ management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal
26
+ control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the
27
+ Exchange Act). Our internal control over financial reporting is a
28
+ process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of
29
+ financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external
30
+ purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting
31
+ principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting
32
+ includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of
33
+ records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the
34
+ transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide
35
+ reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit
36
+ preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
37
+ accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are
38
+ being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of
39
+ the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or
40
+ timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the
41
+ company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial
42
+ statements.
43
+ Because
44
+ of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not
45
+ prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation
46
+ of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may
47
+ become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of
48
+ compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
49
+ Our
50
+ management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial
51
+ reporting as of December 31, 2009. In making this assessment, our
52
+ management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring
53
+ Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control-Integrated
54
+ Framework. Our management has concluded that, as of December 31,
55
+ 2009, our internal control over financial reporting was effective.
56
+ This Annual Report does not include an
57
+ attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm
58
+ regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s
59
+ report was not subject to attestation by our independent registered public
60
+ accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit us to provide
61
+ only management’s report in this Annual Report.
62
+ Evaluation
63
+ of Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
64
+ There
65
+ were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in
66
+ Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended December 31,
67
+ 2009, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially
68
+ affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

123
+ provide in accordance with such pre-approval.

317

318
+ To
319
+ the Shareholders and board of directors of
320
+ DIGITAL
321
+ POWER CORPORATION
322
+ We have
323
+ audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Digital Power
324
+ Corporation ("the Company") and subsidiary as of December 31, 2009 and 2008 and
325
+ the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders' equity and cash
326
+ flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the
327
+ responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an
328
+ opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
329
+ We
330
+ conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company
331
+ Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan
332
+ and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
333
+ statements are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an
334
+ audit of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Our audits
335
+ included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis
336
+ for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but
337
+ not for the purposes of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the
338
+ Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no
339
+ such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
340
+ supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements assessing the
341
+ accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and
342
+ evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
343
+ audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
344
+ In our
345
+ opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly,
346
+ in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company and
347
+ subsidiary at of December 31, 2009 and 2008 and the consolidated results of
348
+ their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity
349
+ with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

879
+ GENERAL
880
+ a.
881
+ Digital
882
+ Power Corporation (the “Company" or "DPC") was incorporated in 1969, under
883
+ the General Corporation Law of the State of California. The Company and
884
+ Digital Power Limited ("DPL"), a wholly owned subsidiary located in the
885
+ United Kingdom, are currently engaged in the design, manufacture and sale
886
+ of switching power supplies and converters. The Company has two reportable
887
+ geographic segments - North America (sales through DPC) and Europe (sales
888
+ through DPL).
889
+ b.
890
+ The
891
+ Company depends on Telkoor Telecom Ltd. ("Telkoor"), a major shareholder
892
+ of the Company and one of DPC's third party subcontractors, for
893
+ manufacturing capabilities in production of the products which DPC sells.
894
+ If these manufacturers are unable or unwilling to continue manufacturing
895
+ the Company's products in required volumes on a timely basis, that could
896
+ lead to loss of sales, and adversely affect the Company's operating
897
+ results and cash position. The Company also depends on Telkoor's
898
+ intellectual property and ability to transfer production to third party
899
+ manufacturers. Failure to obtain new products in a timely manner or delay
900
+ in delivery of product to customers will have an adverse effect on the
901
+ Company's ability to meet its customers' expectations. See also Note
902
+ 11.

907
+ The
908
+ consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
909
+ generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("U.S.
910
+ GAAP").
911
+ a. Use
912
+ of estimates:
913
+ The
914
+ preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S.
915
+ GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions. The
916
+ Company's management
917
+ believes that the estimates, judgments and assumptions made are reasonable based
918
+ upon information available at the time they are made. These estimates, judgments
919
+ and assumptions can affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
920
+ disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial
921
+ statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the
922
+ reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
923
+ b. Financial
924
+ statements in U.S. dollars:
925
+ A
926
+ substantial portion of the revenues of the Company are generated in U.S. dollars
927
+ ("dollar"). In addition, a substantial portion of the costs of the Company are
928
+ incurred in dollars. The Company's management believes that the dollar is the
929
+ currency of the primary economic environment in which the Company
930
+ operates.

944
+ in accordance with Accounting Codification Statement (“ASC”) 830 (formerly: FASB
945
+ No. 52 “Foreign Currency Translation” (“ASC830”). All balance sheet accounts
946
+ have been translated using the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet
947
+ date. Statement of operations amounts have been translated using the
948
+ average exchange rate for the period. The resulting translation adjustments are
949
+ reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in
950
+ shareholders' equity.
951

952
+ Principles
953
+ of consolidation:
954
+ The
955
+ consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its
956
+ wholly-owned subsidiary. Intercompany transactions and balances have been
957
+ eliminated upon consolidation.
958
+ d.
959
+ Cash
960
+ equivalents:
961
+ Cash
962
+ equivalents are short-term highly liquid investments that are readily
963
+ convertible to cash with original maturities of three months or less at
964
+ acquisition.
965
+ e.
966
+ Restricted
967
+ cash:
968
+ Restricted
969
+ cash is held on account of a letter of credit issued by the Company's bank and
970
+ in respect of future lease payments and for certain customers until the
971
+ guarantee expires. The restricted cash is invested in a deposit.
972
+ f.
973
+ Inventories:
974
+ Inventories
975
+ are stated at the lower of cost or market value. Inventory write-offs are
976
+ provided to cover risks arising from slow-moving items or technological
977
+ obsolescence.
978
+ Cost is
979
+ determined as follows:
980
+ Raw
981
+ materials, parts and supplies - using the "first-in, first-out"
982
+ method.
983
+ Work-in-progress
984
+ and finished products - on the basis of direct manufacturing costs with the
985
+ addition of indirect manufacturing costs.
986
+ The
987
+ Company periodically assesses its inventories valuation in respect of obsolete
988
+ and slow moving items by reviewing revenue forecasts and technological
989
+ obsolescence. When inventories on hand exceed the foreseeable demand or become
990
+ obsolete, the value of excess inventory, which at the time of the review was not
991
+ expected to be sold, is written off.
992
+ During
993
+ 2009 and 2008, the Company recorded inventories write-offs of $38 and $235,
994
+ respectively.

1032
+ Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the
1033
+ carrying amount of an asset to the future undiscounted cash flows expected to be
1034
+ generated by the assets. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the
1035
+ impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying
1036
+ amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. As of December 31,
1037
+ 2009 and 2008, no impairment losses have been identified.
1038

1039
+ Revenue
1040
+ recognition:
1041
+ The
1042
+ Company and its subsidiary generate their revenues from the sale of their
1043
+ products through a direct and indirect sales force.
1044
+ Revenues
1045
+ from products are recognized in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin
1046
+ No. 104, "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements" ("SAB No. 104"),
1047
+ when the following criteria are met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement
1048
+ exists, delivery has occurred, the seller's price to the buyer is fixed or
1049
+ determinable, no further obligation exists and collectability is reasonably
1050
+ assured.
1051
+ Generally,
1052
+ the Company does not grant a right of return. However, certain distributors are
1053
+ allowed, in the sixth month after the initial stock purchase, to rotate stock
1054
+ that has not been sold for other products. This may be repeated every sixth
1055
+ month thereafter for 15-18 months, at no more than a fixed percentage of the
1056
+ distributor's purchase during the previous six months. Revenues subject to stock
1057
+ rotation rights are deferred until the products are sold to the end customer or
1058
+ until the rotation rights expire.
1059
+ Service
1060
+ revenues are deferred and recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of
1061
+ the service agreement. Service revenues are immaterial as a proportion of the
1062
+ Company's revenues.

+ Company and its subsidiary account for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740
1084
+ (Formerly: Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109), “Income Taxes”
1085
+ (“ASC 740”). This Statement prescribes the use of the liability method whereby
1086
+ deferred tax assets and liability account balances are determined based on
1087
+ differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities
1088
+ and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect
1089
+ when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company and its subsidiary
1090
+ provide a valuation allowance, if necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to
1091
+ their estimated realizable value.
1092
+ ASC 740
1093
+ contains a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax
1094
+ positions accounted for in accordance with ASC 740. The first step is to
1095
+ evaluate the tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return by
1096
+ determining if the weight of available evidence indicates that it is more likely
1097
+ than not that, on an evaluation of the technical merits, the tax position will
1098
+ be sustained on audit, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation
1099
+ processes. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount
1100
+ that is more than 50% likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement. No
1101
+ liability for unrecognized tax benefits was recorded as a result of the
1102
+ implementation of ASC 740 as well as of December 31, 2009 and 2008.

1109
+ liability in the amount of such costs at the time product revenue is recognized.
1110
+ Factors that affect the Company's warranty liability include the number of units
1111
+ sold, historical rates of warranty claims and cost per claim. The Company
1112
+ periodically assesses the adequacy of its recorded warranty liability and
1113
+ adjusts the amounts as necessary.

1122
+ (Formerly SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004)), “Share-Based Payment” (“ASC
1123
+ 718”).
1124
+ The award
1125

1138
+ ASC 718
1139
+ requires companies to estimate the fair value of equity-based payment awards on
1140
+ the date of grant using an option-pricing model. The Company
1141
+ estimates the fair value of stock options granted under ASC 718 using the
1142
+ Black-Scholes option-pricing model that uses the assumption as
1143
+ follows:
1144
+ Expected
1145
+ volatility is based on historical volatility that is representative of future
1146
+ volatility over the expected term of the options. The expected term of options
1147
+ granted was determined based on the simplified method, which is calculated as
1148
+ the midpoint between the vesting date and the end of the contractual term of the
1149
+ option. The risk free interest rate is based on the yield of U.S Treasury bonds
1150
+ with equivalent terms. The dividend yield is based on the Company's historical
1151
+ and future expectation of dividends payouts. The Company has not paid cash
1152
+ dividends historically and has no plans to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable
1153
+ future.
1154
+ The
1155
+ Company recognizes compensation expense based on awards ultimately expected to
1156
+ vest, net of estimated forfeitures at the time of grant. Estimated forfeitures
1157
+ are based on historical pre-vesting forfeitures. ASC 718 requires forfeitures to
1158
+ be estimated and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual
1159
+ forfeitures differ from those estimates.
1160
+ The fair
1161

1317

1321
+ Fair
1322
+ value of financial
1323

1324
+ The Company measures its
1325
+ financial instruments at fair value. Fair value is an exit price, representing
1326
+ the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a
1327
+ liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair
1328
+ value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on
1329
+ assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or a
1330
+ liability. A three-tier fair value hierarchy is established as a basis for
1331
+ considering such assumptions and for inputs used in the valuation methodologies
1332
+ in measuring fair value:

+ Derivatives
1421

1422

1423
+ (Formerly Financial Accounting Standard Board Statement No.
1424
+ 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities") ("ASC
1425
+ 815"), as amended, requires the Company to recognize all derivatives on the
1426
+ balance sheet at fair value. Derivatives that are not hedges must be adjusted to
1427
+ fair value through income. If the derivative is a hedge, depending on the nature
1428
+ of the hedge, changes in the fair value of derivatives are either offset against
1429
+ the change in fair value of the hedged assets, liabilities, or firm commitments
1430
+ through earnings or recognized in other comprehensive income until the hedged
1431
+ item is recognized in earnings. The ineffective portion of a derivative's change
1432
+ in fair value is immediately recognized in earnings. The Company uses
1433
+ derivatives to hedge certain cash flow foreign currency exposures in order to
1434
+ further reduce the Company's exposure to foreign currency risks.
1435
+ The
1436
+ Company entered into a forward contract to hedge certain sales transactions with
1437
+ a customer denominated in foreign currencies. The Company's forward contract did
1438
+ not qualify a hedging instrument under ASC 815.
1439
+ As of
1440
+ December 31, 2008 and 2009, the Company had outstanding forward contracts that
1441
+ did not meet the requirement for hedge accounting, in the amount of $115 and
1442
+ $17, respectively. These contracts were for a period of up to nine months. The
1443
+ Company measured the fair value of the contracts in accordance with ASC No. 820
1444
+ at level 2. The net gains (losses) recognized in "financial income, net" during
1445
+ 2008 and 2009 were a loss of $147 and a gain of $63, respectively.

1452
+ Statement establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive
1453
+ income and its components in a full set of general purpose financial statements.
1454
+ Comprehensive income generally represents all changes in stockholders' equity
1455
+ during the period except those resulting from investments by, or distributions
1456
+ to, stockholders. The Company determined that its items of comprehensive income
1457
+ relates to unrealized losses and gains from foreign currency translation
1458
+ adjustments.

1479
+ Recently
1480
+ issued accounting pronouncements:
1481
+ In June
1482
+ 2009, the FASB issued SFAS 168, "The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and
1483
+ the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles". SFAS No. 168,
1484
+ which is incorporated in ASC Topic 105, Generally Accepted Accounting
1485
+ Principles, identifies the accounting standard codification (ASC) as the
1486
+ authoritative source of generally accepted accounting principles in the United
1487
+ States. Rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under federal securities laws
1488
+ are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. Throughout the notes
1489
+ to the consolidated financial statements, references that were previously made
1490
+ to former authoritative U.S. GAAP pronouncements have been changed to coincide
1491
+ with the appropriate section of the ASC.
1492
+ For
1493
+ accounting periods ending after June 15, 2009, new authoritative accounting
1494
+ guidance became effective under ASC Topic 855 (formerly SFAS No. 165) which
1495
+ modifies the definition of what qualifies as a subsequent event—those events or
1496
+ transactions that occur following the balance sheet date, but before the
1497
+ financial statements are issued, or are available to be issued—and requires
1498
+ companies to disclose the date through which it has evaluated subsequent events
1499
+ and the basis for determining that date. The adoption of ASC Topic 855 did not
1500
+ have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations and
1501
+ financial condition.
1502
+ In
1503
+ October 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update, 2009-13, Revenue
1504
+ Recognition (Topic 605) Multiple Deliverable Revenue Arrangements-A Consensus of
1505
+ the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force. This update provides application guidance
1506
+ on whether multiple deliverables exist, how the deliverables should be separated
1507
+ and how the consideration should be allocated to one or more units of
1508
+ accounting. This update establishes a selling price hierarchy for determining
1509
+ the selling price of a deliverable. The selling price used for each deliverable
1510
+ will be based on vendor-specific objective evidence, if available, third-party
1511
+ evidence if vendor-specific objective evidence is not available, or estimated
1512
+ Selling price if neither vendor-specific or third-party evidence is available.
1513
+ The Company will be required to apply this guidance prospectively for revenue
1514
+ arrangements entered into or materially modified after January 1, 2011; however,
1515
+ earlier application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating
1516
+ the impact of the adoption of this new guidance on its financial
1517
+ statements.

1871
+ In 2005
1872
+ and 2006, the Company granted 70,000 options to Telkoor's employees and 100,000
1873
+ options to a non-employee consultant. Of the 70,000 options granted to Telkoor’s
1874
+ employees, 10,000 and 40,000 options were forfeited in 2007 and 2008,
1875
+ respectively, due to termination of employment. Those options vest
1876
+ primarily over four years. The fair value for these options was estimated using
1877
+ a Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions for 2009:
1878
+ risk-free interest rates of 2.5%-2.9%, dividend yield of 0%, volatility of
1879
+ 89.1%-93.9%, and the contractual term of the options of 5.2-5.7
1880

1881
+ Compensation
1882

+ Employee
1887
+ stock ownership plan:
1888
+ The
1889
+ Company has an employee stock ownership plan ("ESOP") covering eligible
1890
+ employees. The ESOP provides for the Employee Stock Ownership Trust ("ESOT") to
1891
+ distribute the Company's Common shares as retirement benefits to the
1892
+ participants. The Company has not distributed shares since 1998. As of December
1893

1894
+ shares.

1896
+ Dividends:
1897
+ In the

1900
+ foreseeable future.

1958
+ As of
1959
+ December 31, 2009 and 2008, the Company and its subsidiary provided a valuation
1960
+ allowance of $ 2,158 and $ 1,852, respectively, in respect of deferred
1961
+ tax asset resulting from short-term temporary differences and depreciation
1962
+ charged in advance of a capital allowance taken, as well as from carryforward
1963
+ losses.
1964
+ Management
1965
+ currently believes that since the Company and its subsidiary have a history of
1966
+ losses, it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets regarding the
1967
+ remainder of the tax loss carryforward and other temporary differences will not
1968

1969

1970
+ Net
1971
+ operating tax losses
1972
+ carryforward:
1973
+ As of
1974
+ December 31, 2009, the Company had approximately $ 3,650 in federal net
1975
+ operating loss carryforward for income tax purposes, which can be carried
1976
+ forward and offset against taxable income for 20 years and expire between 2020
1977
+ and 2030.
1978
+ Utilization
1979
+ of U.S. net operating losses may be subject to substantial annual limitation,
1980
+ due to the "change in ownership" provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986
1981
+ and similar state provisions. The annual limitation may result in the expiration
1982
+ of net operating losses before utilization. The Company believes that, as a
1983
+ result of having undergone an "Ownership change" in 2002 within the meaning of
1984
+ section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, its ability to use its net operating
1985
+ loss carryforward and other tax attributes to offset future U.S. taxable income,
1986
+ and thereby reduce its tax liability, is severely limited.

+ DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS.
3
+ General
4
+ Digital Power Corporation is a solution-driven organization that designs, develops, manufactures and sells high-grade customized and flexible power system solutions for the most demanding applications in the medical, military, telecom and industrial markets. We are highly focused on high-grade and custom product designs for both the commercial and military/defense markets, where customers demand high density, high efficiency and ruggedized products to meet the harshest and/or military mission critical operating conditions. We are a California corporation originally formed in 1969, and our common stock trades on the NYSE Amex under the symbol “DPW”. Our corporate headquarters are located in the heart of the Silicon Valley.
5
+ We also have a wholly-owned subsidiary, Digital Power Limited ("DPL"), which operates under the brand name of “Gresham Power Electronics” (“Gresham”). DPL is located in Salisbury, England, and it designs, manufactures and sells power products and system solutions mainly for the European marketplace, including power conversion, power distribution equipment, DC/AC (Direct Current/Active Current) inverters and UPS (Uninterrupted Power Supply) products. DPL’s defense business has specialists in the field of naval applications of power distribution conversion.
6
+ We believe that we are one of the first companies in the power solutions industry to introduce a product strategy based on the premise that products developed with an extremely flexible architecture enable rapid modifications to meet unique customer requirements for non-standard output voltages. The development and implementation of this strategy has resulted in broad acceptance in the telecom/industrial, and increasingly in the medical market, segments for our new line of high density and high efficiency power products. These products set an industry standard for providing high-power output in package sizes that are among the smallest available for such commercial products.
7
+ We market and sell our products to many diverse market segments, including the telecom, industrial, medical and military/defense industries. Our products serve a global market, with an emphasis on North America and Europe. We offer a broad product variety, including a full custom product design and production, unique high-speed switching power front-end, modified-standard and value added products, open-frame, Compact-PCI, ATSC, Micro TCA Front-Ends Systems and PoE (Power over Ethernet) product solutions, providing power output from 50 to 24,000 watts.
8
+ In an effort to provide short lead-times, high quality products and competitive pricing to support our markets, we have entered into production agreements with several contract manufacturers located in Asia, primarily China. These agreements allow us to better control production costs and ensure high quality products deliverable in a timely manner to meet market demand.
9
+ We intend to remain an innovative leader in the development of cutting-edge custom power solutions and rich features products to meet any customer needs and requirements, rugged power systems to meet harsh and extreme operation environmental requirements, and high performance, high efficiency, high-density and modular power systems. We are focusing today on developing even more high-grade custom power system solutions for numerous customers in a broadly diversified range of markets and challenging environments. Each product development is based on best of class performance criteria, including unique, advanced feature sets and a special layout to meet our customers’ unique operating conditions where efficiency, size and time to market are key to their success. We are taking initiatives to develop and sell high efficiency “green power” solutions.
10
+ Power System Solutions
11
+ We provide custom power system solutions, high-grade flexibility series power supply products and value-added services to diverse industries and markets including military/defense, telecom, medical and industrial. We believe that our solutions leverage a combination of high power density, superior power efficiency, design flexibility and short time to market.
12
+ Custom Power System Solution . We provide high-grade custom power system solutions to numerous customers in multiple industry segments. Each custom solution that we develop is based on high power density and a special layout to meet each of our customer’s unique operation environments where efficiency, size and performance are key. We combine our power design capabilities with the latest circuit designs to provide complete power solutions for virtually any need. In the design of custom power solutions, we work closely with our customers’ engineering teams to develop mechanical enclosures to ensure 100% compatibility with any hosted platform.
13
+ Our standard contract for custom power solutions includes a multi-year high-volume production forecast that allows us to secure long-term production guarantees (and therefore possible savings on manufacturing costs for volume orders) while providing an environment that promotes the development of our intellectual property (“IP”) portfolio. We believe that this business model provides an incentive to our customers to be committed to high-volume production orders.
14
+ High-Grade Flexibility Series Power Supply Product . While some of our customers have special requirements that include a full custom design, other customers may require only certain electrical changes to standard power supply products, such as modified output voltages and unique status and control signals, and mechanical repackaging tailored to fit the specific application. We offer a wide range of standard and modified standard products that can be easily integrated with any platform across our diversified market segments.
15
+ Value-Added Services . In addition to our custom solutions and high-grade flexibility series proprietary products that we offer, we also provide value-added services to OEMs. We incorporate an OEM’s selected electronic components, enclosures, cable assemblies and other compliance components into our power system solutions to produce a power subassembly that is compatible with the OEM’s own equipment and specifically tailored to meet the OEM’s needs. We purchase parts and components that the OEM itself would otherwise attach to, or integrate with, our power systems, and provide the OEM with the integration and installation service, thus eliminating a complex, time-consuming and costly integration. We believe that this value-added service is well suited to those OEMs who wish to reduce their vendor base and minimize their investment in manufacturing that leads to increased fixed costs. Based on these value-added services, the OEMs do not need to build assembly facilities to manufacture their own power subassemblies and thus are not required to purchase individual parts from many vendors.
16
+ 2
17
+ Our products have a warranty period from date of shipment to the customer.
18
+ Markets
19
+ We sell our custom power system solutions, high-grade flexibility series power supply products and value-added services to customers in a diverse range of commercial and defense industries and markets throughout the world, with an emphasis on North America and Europe. Our current customer base consists of approximately 200 companies, some of which are served through our partner channels. We serve the North American power electronics market primarily through our domestic corporation, Digital Power Corporation; the European marketplace is served through DPL, our wholly-owned subsidiary.
20
+ Our products are sold in North America and Europe directly by our sales force and through a network of manufacturers’ representatives and distributors. In 2009, we implemented a new sales strategy to identify and focus on strategic accounts. This strategy allows us to maintain a close and direct relationship with them, which positions us as the supplier of choice for these customers’ challenging, innovative and demanding new product requirements. In striving for additional market share, we simultaneously strengthen our traditional sales channels of manufacturer representatives and distributors. We plan to continue to build more channels and increase our market share through 2011.

137
+ Strategy
138
+ Our strategy is to be the supplier of choice to those companies and OEMs requiring high-quality power system solutions where custom design, superior product, high quality, time to market and very competitive prices are critical to business success. We believe that we provide advanced custom product design services to deliver high-grade products that reach a high level of efficiency and density and can meet rigorous environmental requirements. Our customers benefit from a direct relationship with us that supports all of their needs for designing and manufacturing power solutions and products. By implementing our advanced core technology, including process implementation in integrated circuits, we can provide cost reductions to our customers by replacing their existing power sources with our custom design cost-effective products.
139
+ Our target market segments include the industrial, telecommunication, medical, and military/defense industries. We do not participate in the personal computer power supply market because of the low margins arising out of the high volume and extremely competitive nature of that market.
140
+ Our strategy will continue to focus on expanding our market share by adding new customers from all of our target market segments. We are developing long term relationships, and we intend to expand our customer base in our commercial market segments, including medical, telecom and industrial, while continuing to maintain our existing customers. In the military and defense market segment, we will continue to provide advanced rugged products to customers, and we are striving to expand our business to support the military and defense industries. We believe that our custom power supply solutions, flexibility series, high-grade and high-efficiency power product solutions provide customers with a more effective choice as compared to products offered by other power solution competitors, due in part to a customer’s requirement for output voltages and other features such as redundancy and sense control tailored to its exact requirements within specific parameters.
141
+ Furthermore, we believe that we have the talent and engineering experience to satisfy any of our customers’ product or platform requirements. If an OEM customer specifies a different set of power system parameters, we will custom design or modify a product to meet the OEM’s requirements With a wide range of solutions from our custom designs to our high-grade flexibility series products, our professional design team can provide economical and timely product solutions to our OEM customers. In addition, as our power systems meet all appropriate environmental requirements and safety standards, our smaller OEM customers can expedite the process of independent safety agency testing by companies such as Underwriters Laboratories, and save considerable expense. By offering OEM customers a new choice with Digital Power’s custom, flexibility series, high-grade and high-efficiency power system solutions, we believe we provide certain strategic advantages over our competitors.
142
+ Digital Power Limited (Gresham Power Electronics)
143
+ DPL, our wholly-owned subsidiary organized and headquartered in Salisbury, England, designs, manufactures, and distributes switching power supplies, uninterruptible power supplies, and power conversion and distribution equipment frequency converters for the commercial and military markets, under the name Gresham. Frequency converters manufactured by Gresham are used by navel warships to convert their generated 60-cycle electricity supply to 400 cycles. This 400-cycle supply is used to power their critical equipment such as gyro, compass, and weapons systems. Gresham also designs and manufactures transformer rectifiers for naval use. Typically, these provide battery supported back up for critical DC systems, such as machinery and communications. In addition, higher power rectifiers are used for the starting and servicing of helicopters on naval vessels, and Gresham now supplies these as part of overall helicopter start and servicing systems. We believe that Gresham products add diversity to our product line, provide greater access to the United Kingdom and European markets, and strengthen our engineering and technical resources. For the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, Gresham contributed approximately 44% and 51%, respectively, to our gross revenues.

145
+ Manufacturing and Testing
146
+ Consistent with our strategy of focusing on custom design products and high-grade flexibility series products, we aim to maintain a high degree of flexibility in our manufacturing through the use of strategically focused contract manufacturers. We select contract manufacturers to ensure that they will meet our near term cost, delivery, and quality goals. In addition, we believe these relationships will eventually give us access to new markets and beneficial cross-licensing opportunities. The competitive nature of the power supply industry has placed continual downward pressure on selling prices. In order to achieve our low cost manufacturing goals with labor-intensive products, we have entered into production agreements with certain contract manufacturers in Asia. At present, our principal contract manufacturers in Asia are Winco-Power Technology, Shenzhen Watt Electronics, Ultra Level Tech Co. Ltd, and Energy Recovery Products.
147
+ We sell certain products that are developed, manufactured and sold to us by Telkoor, an Israeli company that currently holds 43.25% of our outstanding common stock. In coordination with Telkoor, and in order to accelerate delivery and reduce the cost of some of the products we purchase from Telkoor, we have obtained the right to order products directly from Telkoor’s contract manufacturers, as well as from our own contract manufacturers in China, in exchange for the payment of a commission to Telkoor.
148
+ We are continually improving our internal processes, while monitoring the processes of our contract manufacturers, to ensure the highest quality and consistent manufacturing of our power solutions. We test all of our custom power assemblies per clearly defined test procedures developed by us and our customers. This approach ensures that our customers can use our systems right out of the box. Customer specific testing services are offered with custom designed test stands to simulate operation within our customer applications.
149
+ Compliance with international safety agency standards is critical in every application, and power solutions play a major role in meeting these compliance requirements. Our safety engineers and quality assurance teams help ensure that our custom products are designed to meet all safety requirements and are appropriately documented to expedite safety approval processes.

+ We and our manufacturing partners are required to meet applicable regulatory, environmental, emissions, safety and other requirements where specified by the customer and accepted by us or as required by local regulatory or legal requirements. The products that we market and sell in Europe may be subject to the 2003 European Directive on Restriction of Hazardous Substances (“RoHS”), which restricts the use of six hazardous materials in the manufacture of certain electronic and electrical equipment, as well as the 2002 European Directive on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (“WEEE”), which determines collection, recycling and recovery goals for electrical goods. In July 2006, our industry began phasing in RoHS and WEEE requirements in most geographical markets with specific emphasis on consumer-based products. We believe that RoHS and WEEE-compliant components may be subject to longer lead-times and higher prices as the industry transitions to these new requirements.
152
+ 6
153
+ Some of our products are subject to ITAR, which is administered by the U.S. Department of State. ITAR controls not only the export of certain products specifically designed, modified, configured or adapted for military systems, but also the export of related technical data and defense services and foreign production. We obtain required export licenses for any exports subject to ITAR. Compliance with ITAR may require a prolonged period of time; if the process of obtaining required export licenses for products subject to ITAR is delayed, it could have a materially adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and operating results. Any future restrictions or charges imposed by the United States or any other country on our international sales or sales by the operations of DPL, our foreign subsidiary, could have a materially adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and operating results. In addition, from time to time, we entered into contracts with defense contract manufacturers for the government of Israel’s defense programs, which were funded by, and governed by the regulations of, the U.S. Foreign Military Financing program.
154
+ Sales and Marketing
155
+ We market our products directly through our internal sales force as well as through a partner network of independent manufacturer representatives and distributors. Each representative organization is responsible for managing sales in a particular geographic territory. Generally, the representative has the opportunity to earn exclusive access to all potential customers in the assigned territory as a result of achieving its marketing and sales goals as defined in the representative agreement. Our manufacturer representative agreements provide for a commission equal to 5% of net sales, payable after the product is shipped, for any direct sale contribution. Typically, either we or the representative organization may terminate the agreement upon 30 days’ written notice.
156
+ Historically, we have also sold products through multiple distributor arrangements which do not specify a particular territory. Each of these arrangements can be terminated by either party upon 30 days’ written notice.
157
+ Our promotional efforts, to date, have included product data sheets, participation in trade shows, and our website, www.digipwr.com. We use the corporate website to emphasize our capabilities and marketing direction. All products specifications are uploaded onto our website and accessible to the marketplace. We will continue to enhance our website by adding more features and functionalities, such as ecommerce, that will allow our customers to buy directly through our website. Our future promotional activities will likely include advertising in industry-specific publications, as well as public relations for our new products.
158
+ Engineering and Technology
159
+ Our engineering and product development efforts are primarily directed toward developing new products in connection with custom product design and modification of our standard power systems to provide a broad array of individual models. In the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, we expended a total of $561,000 and $556,000, respectively, on engineering and product development.
160
+ Our new custom product design solutions are driven by our ability to provide to our customers advanced technology that meets their product needs and supports special operation and environmental requirements, with a short turnaround time and a very competitive price point. We believe that we are successfully executing our strategic account focus, as evidenced by the award of second and third generation product development contracts from some of these customers. Our standard contract for custom power solutions includes a multi-year high-volume production forecast that could allow us to secure long-term production guarantees while providing an environment that promotes the development of our IP portfolio.
161
+ 7
162
+ We also partner with various design and contract engineering firms for development of some of our new products supported by our internal engineering services staff. Furthermore, we continue to leverage the close relationship we have with one of our major shareholders, Telkoor, to introduce new products that Telkoor develops for its market and makes available for us. Finally, from time to time, we modify standard products to meet specific customer requirements, including, but not limited to, converting commercial products into full military MIL-SPEC products and other unique modification and adjustments, when applicable. We are experiencing an increasing demand for ruggedization of commercial products for military applications. To meet that requirement, our engineering team continues to ruggedize commercial products, which we sell as commercial off the shelf products to some of our military customers. We continually seek to improve our product power density, adaptability, and efficiency, while attempting to anticipate changing market demands for increased functionality, such as PFC (power factor correction) and improved EMI (electromagnetic interference) filtering. We continue to differentiate all of our products from commodity-type products by enhancing, modifying and customizing our existing product portfolio, using our Freemont, California engineering lab. In August 2010, we purchased the IP and production packages of the compact peripheral component interface (Compact PCI, or CPCI) 600 Watt AC/DC power supply series from Telkoor Power Systems Ltd. (TPS). The IP was purchased in order to decrease lead time and the costs associated with the production process. We have gained from this purchase a rich portfolio of industry-leading CPCI AC/DC power supplies delivering 600 Watts of continuous power. These hot-swappable power supplies feature N+1 redundant connection and active load current share. This IP strategic acquisition expands our presence in telecom, broadcast, advanced multimedia and military applications that require increasing amounts of power. As a result of this purchase, we have decreased our manufacturing costs.
163
+ Competition
164
+ The power system solutions industry is highly fragmented and characterized by intense competition. Our competition includes hundreds of companies located throughout the world, some of which have advantages over us in terms of labor and component costs, and some of which may offer products comparable in quality to ours. Many of our competitors, including Power-One, Emerson (Astec) Technologies, Inc., Lambda Electronics, and Mean-Well Power Supplies, have substantially greater fiscal and marketing resources and geographic presence than we do. If we are successful in increasing our revenues, competitors may notice and increase competition with our customers. We also face competition from current and prospective customers who may decide to design and manufacture internally power supplies needed for their products. Furthermore, certain larger OEMs tend to contract only with larger power supply manufacturers.
165
+ In April 2008, Telkoor, one of our major shareholders and strategic suppliers, signed a “Private Label” agreement with Murata Power Solutions in Canada to sell Telkoor’s products under the Murata brand name. This agreement positions Murata as a direct competitor of ours with respect to the sale of Telkoor’s products in North America. However, this agreement expires in April 2011.
166
+ We anticipate that with the current economic downturn, additional competitors may enter into strategic alliances or even acquisitions. Competition could thus become more problematic if consolidation trends in the electronics industry continue and some of the OEMs to whom we sell our products are acquired by larger OEMs. To remain competitive, we must continue to compete favorably on the basis of value by providing reliable manufacturing, offering customer-driven engineering services including custom design and manufacturing, continuously improving quality and reliability levels, and offering flexible and reliable delivery schedules.
167
+ We believe that our power system solutions and advanced product design have significant advantages in the power supply solutions market because they have higher efficiency and high-power density, or power-to-volume ratio, which make them smaller than the solutions offered by our competitors and can thus fit well in numerous custom environments in compliance with our customers’ requirements.
168
+ Another advantage of our power system solutions product line is based on the “Flexible” series that employs adjustable power range of product design. We believe we have a competitive position with our targeted customers who need a high-quality, compact product, which can be readily modified to meet the customer’s unique requirements. We have designed the base model power system platform so that it can be quickly and economically modified and adapted to the specific power needs of any hosting platform or OEM. This “flexibility” approach has allowed us to provide samples of modified power systems to OEM customers in only a few days after initial consultation, an important capability given the emphasis placed by OEMs on “time to market.” It also results in very low non-recurring engineering (“NRE”) expenses. Because of reduced NRE expenses, we do not generally charge our OEM customers for NRE related to tailoring a power system to a customer’s specific requirements. We believe this gives us an advantage over our competitors, many of which charge their customers for NRE expenses.
169
+ 8
170
+ Raw Materials
171
+ The raw materials for power supplies principally consist of electronic components. These raw materials are available from a variety of sources, and we are not dependent on any one supplier. We generally allow our subcontractors to purchase components based on orders received or forecasts to minimize our risk of unusable inventory. To the extent necessary, we may allow them to procure materials prior to orders received to obtain shorter lead times and to achieve quantity discounts following a risk assessment. In addition, we have decided to directly procure certain long lead-time electronic components in an effort to reduce our lead-time.
172
+ Because of the global recession, many raw material vendors have reduced capacities, closed production lines and, in some cases, even discontinued their operations. As a result, there is a global shortage of certain electronic components, which has extended our production lead-time and our production costs. For example, in some cases, finished goods that used to be available in 12 weeks for a production purchase order are now available only after 22 weeks. Also, some materials are no longer available to support some of our products, thereby requiring us to search for cross materials or, even worse, redesign some of our products to support currently-available materials.
173
+ Intellectual Property
174
+ We rely upon a combination of trade secrets, industry expertise, confidential procedures, and contractual provisions to protect our intellectual property. We believe that because our products are continually updated and revised, obtaining patents would be costly and not beneficial. However, in the future, as we continue to develop unique core technology, we may seek to obtain patents for some of the core technology. On July 8, 2004, our trademark, “DP Digital Power – Powering Your Technologies,” was registered with the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
175
+ Employees
176
+ As of December 31, 2010, we had 31 employees located in the United States and the United Kingdom, of whom eight were engaged in engineering and product development, seven in sales and marketing, nine in general operations and seven in general administration and finance. All but five of these employees are employed on a full-time basis. None of our employees are currently represented by a trade union. We consider our relations with our employees to be good.

+ Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
6
+ Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
7
+ Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
8
+ Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework. Our management has concluded that, as of December 31, 2010, our internal control over financial reporting was effective.
9
+ This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to a provision under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act which grants a permanent exemption for non-accelerated filers from complying with Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.
10
+ Evaluation of Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
11
+ There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended December 31, 2010 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

+ DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS.
3
+ General
4
+ Digital Power Corporation is a solution-driven organization that designs, develops, manufactures and sells high-grade customized and flexible power system solutions for the most demanding applications in the medical, military, telecom and industrial markets. We are highly focused on high-grade and custom product designs for both the commercial and military/defense markets, where customers demand high density, high efficiency and ruggedized products to meet the harshest and/or military mission critical operating conditions. We are a California corporation originally formed in 1969, and our common stock trades on the NYSE Amex under the symbol “DPW”. Our corporate headquarters are located in the heart of the Silicon Valley.
5
+ We also have a wholly-owned subsidiary, Digital Power Limited ("DPL"), which operates under the brand name of “Gresham Power Electronics” (“Gresham”). DPL is located in Salisbury, England, and it designs, manufactures and sells power products and system solutions mainly for the European marketplace, including power conversion, power distribution equipment, DC/AC (Direct Current/Active Current) inverters and UPS (Uninterrupted Power Supply) products. DPL’s defense business has specialists in the field of naval applications of power distribution conversion.
6
+ We believe that we are one of the first companies in the power solutions industry to introduce a product strategy based on the premise that products developed with an extremely flexible architecture enable rapid modifications to meet unique customer requirements for non-standard output voltages. The development and implementation of this strategy has resulted in broad acceptance in the telecom/industrial, and increasingly in the medical market, segments for our new line of high density and high efficiency power products. These products set an industry standard for providing high-power output in package sizes that are among the smallest available for such commercial products.
7
+ We market and sell our products to many diverse market segments, including the telecom, industrial, medical and military/defense industries. Our products serve a global market, with an emphasis on North America and Europe. We offer a broad product variety, including a full custom product design, standard and modified-standard products. Our unique high-speed switching power rectifiers includes but not limited to custom power products, front-end, open-frame, enclosed, Compact PCI, MicroTCA, , PoE (Power over Ethernet) and other product solutions, providing power output from 50 to 24,000 watts.
8
+ In an effort to provide short lead-times, high quality products and competitive pricing to support our markets, we have entered into production agreements with several contract manufacturers located in Asia, primarily China. These agreements allow us to better control production costs and ensure high quality products deliverable in a timely manner to meet market demand.
9
+ We intend to remain an innovative leader in the development of cutting-edge custom power solutions and rich features products to meet any customer needs and requirements, rugged power systems to meet harsh and extreme operation environmental requirements, and high performance, high efficiency, high-density and modular power systems. We are focusing today on developing even more high-grade custom power system solutions for numerous customers in a broadly diversified range of markets and challenging environments. Each product development is based on best of class performance criteria, including unique, advanced feature sets and a special layout to meet our customers’ unique operating conditions where efficiency, size and time to market are key to their success. We are taking initiatives to develop and sell high efficiency “green power” solutions.
10
+ Power System Solutions
11
+ We provide custom power system solutions, high-grade flexibility series power supply products, off-the-shelf products and value-added services to our diverse industries and markets including military/defense, telecom, medical and industrial. We believe that our solutions leverage a combination of low leakage power emissions, high power density, superior power efficiency, design flexibility and short time to market.
12
+ Custom Power System Solution . We provide high-grade custom power system solutions to numerous customers in multiple industry segments. Each custom solution that we develop is based on high power density, digital power processing and a special layout to meet each of our customer’s unique operation environments where efficiency, size and performance are key. We combine our power design capabilities with the latest circuit designs to provide complete power solutions for virtually any need. In the design of custom power solutions, we work closely with our customers’ engineering teams to develop mechanical enclosures to ensure 100% compatibility with any hosted platform.
13
+ Our standard contract for custom power solutions includes a multi-year high-volume production forecast that allows us to secure long-term production guarantees (and therefore possible savings on manufacturing costs for volume orders) while providing an environment that promotes the development of our intellectual property (“IP”) portfolio. We believe that this business model provides an incentive to our customers to be committed to high-volume production orders.
14
+ High-Grade Flexibility Series Power Supply Product . We offer our rich features based power rectifiers that support flexible configuration and high-grade design implementation. This include innovative designs and implementation including Digital Signal Processing (“DSP”) control for Power Factor Correction (“PFC”) and DC/DC, synchronous rectifier outputs under DSP control, two phase PFC, hot pluggable, current sharing and other features. While some of our customers have special requirements that include a full custom design, other customers may require only certain electrical changes to standard power supply products, such as modified output voltages and unique status and control signals, and mechanical repackaging tailored to fit the specific application. We offer a wide range of standard and modified standard products that can be easily integrated with any platform across our diversified market segments.
15
+ Value-Added Services . In addition to our custom solutions and high-grade flexibility series proprietary products that we offer, we also provide value-added services to OEMs. We incorporate an OEM’s selected electronic components, enclosures, cable assemblies and other compliance components into our power system solutions to produce a power subassembly that is compatible with the OEM’s own equipment and specifically tailored to meet the OEM’s needs. We purchase parts and components that the OEM itself would otherwise attach to, or integrate with, our power systems, and provide the OEM with the integration and installation service, thus eliminating a complex, time-consuming and costly integration. We believe that this value-added service is well suited to those OEMs who wish to reduce their vendor base and minimize their investment in manufacturing that leads to increased fixed costs. Based on these value-added services, the OEMs do not need to build assembly facilities to manufacture their own power subassemblies and thus are not required to purchase individual parts from many vendors.
16
+ 2
17
+ Our products have a warranty period from date of shipment to the customer.
18
+ Markets
19
+ We sell our custom power system solutions, high-grade flexibility series power supply products and value-added services to customers in a diverse range of commercial and defense industries and markets throughout the world, with an emphasis on North America and Europe. Our current customer base consists of approximately 200 companies, some of which are served through our partner channels. We serve the North American power electronics market primarily through our domestic corporation, Digital Power Corporation; the European marketplace is served through DPL, our wholly-owned subsidiary.
20
+ Our products are sold directly by our sales force and through a network of manufacturers’ representatives and distributors. Our sales strategy is to identify and focus on strategic accounts. This strategy allows us to maintain a close and direct relationship with them, which positions us as the supplier of choice for these customers’ challenging, innovative and demanding new product requirements. In striving for additional market share, we simultaneously strengthen our traditional sales channels of manufacturer representatives and distributors. We plan to continue to build more channels and increase our market share through 2012.
21
+ Commercial Customers . We serve global commercial markets including medical, telecom, and industrial companies. Our products are deployed in a variety of applications and operate in a broad range of systems where customers require mission critical power reliability and occasionally extreme environmental conditions.

+ Strategy
140
+ Our strategy is to be the supplier of choice to those companies and OEMs requiring high-quality power system solutions where custom design, superior product, high quality, time to market and very competitive prices are critical to business success. We believe that we provide advanced custom product design services to deliver high-grade products that reach a high level of efficiency and density and can meet rigorous environmental requirements. Our customers benefit from a direct relationship with us that support all of their needs for designing and manufacturing power solutions and products. By implementing our advanced core technology, including process implementation in integrated circuits, we can provide cost reductions to our customers by replacing their existing power sources with our custom design cost-effective products.
141
+ Our target market segments include the industrial, telecommunication, medical, and military/defense industries. We do not participate in the personal computer power supply market because of the low margins arising out of the high volume and extremely competitive nature of that market.
142
+ Our strategy will continue to focus on expanding our market share by adding new customers from all of our target market segments. We are developing long term relationships, and we intend to expand our customer base in our commercial market segments, including medical, telecom and industrial, while continuing to maintain our existing customers. In the military and defense market segment, we will continue to provide advanced rugged products to customers, and we are striving to expand our business to support the military and defense industries. We believe that our custom power supply solutions, flexibility series, high-grade and high-efficiency power product solutions provide customers with a more effective choice as compared to products offered by other power solution competitors, due in part to a customer’s requirement for output voltages and other features such as redundancy and sense control tailored to its exact requirements within specific parameters.
143
+ Furthermore, we believe that we have the talent and engineering experience to satisfy any of our customers’ product or platform requirements. If an OEM customer specifies a different set of power system parameters, we will custom design or modify a product to meet the OEM’s requirements With a wide range of solutions from our custom designs to our high-grade flexibility series products, our professional design team can provide economical and timely product solutions to our OEM customers. In addition, as our power systems meet all appropriate environmental requirements and safety standards, our smaller OEM customers can expedite the process of independent safety agency testing by companies such as Underwriters Laboratories, and save considerable expense. By offering OEM customers a new choice with Digital Power’s custom, flexibility series, high-grade and high-efficiency power system solutions, we believe we provide certain strategic advantages over our competitors.
144
+ Digital Power Limited (Gresham Power Electronics)
145
+ Digital Power Limited, our wholly-owned subsidiary organized and headquartered in Salisbury, United Kingdom , designs, manufactures, and distributes switching power supplies, uninterruptible power supplies, and power conversion and distribution equipment frequency converters for the commercial and military markets, under the name Gresham Power Electronics (“Gresham”). Frequency converters manufactured by Gresham are used by navel warships to convert their generated 60-cycle electricity supply to 400 cycles. This 400-cycle supply is used to power their critical equipment such as gyro, compass, and weapons systems. Gresham also designs and manufactures transformer rectifiers for naval use. Typically, these provide battery supported back up for critical DC systems, such as machinery and communications. In addition, higher power rectifiers are used for the starting and servicing of helicopters on naval vessels, and Gresham now supplies these as part of overall helicopter start and servicing systems. We believe that Gresham products add diversity to our product line, provide greater access to the United Kingdom and European markets, and strengthen our engineering and technical resources.
146
+ Manufacturing and Testing
147
+ Consistent with our strategy of focusing on custom design products and high-grade flexibility series products, we aim to maintain a high degree of flexibility in our manufacturing through the use of strategically focused contract manufacturers. We select contract manufacturers to ensure that they will meet our near term cost, delivery, and quality goals. In addition, we believe these relationships will eventually give us access to new markets and beneficial cross-licensing opportunities. The competitive nature of the power supply industry has placed continual downward pressure on selling prices. In order to achieve our low cost manufacturing goals with labor-intensive products, we have entered into production agreements with certain contract manufacturers in Asia. At present, our principal contract manufacturers in Asia are Winco-Power Technology, Shenzhen Watt Electronics, Ultra Level Tech Co. Ltd, Teamwise and Energy Recovery Products.
148
+ 5
149
+ We sell certain products that are developed, manufactured and sold to us by Telkoor, an Israeli company that currently holds 40.4% of our outstanding common stock. In coordination with Telkoor, and in order to accelerate delivery and reduce the cost of some of the products we purchase from Telkoor, we have obtained the right to order products directly from Telkoor’s contract manufacturers, as well as from our own contract manufacturers in China, in exchange for the payment of royalties to Telkoor.
150
+ We are continually improving our internal processes, while monitoring the processes of our contract manufacturers, to ensure the highest quality and consistent manufacturing of our power solutions. We test all of our custom power assemblies per clearly defined test procedures developed by us and our customers. This approach ensures that our customers can use our systems right out of the box. Customer specific testing services are offered with custom designed test stands to simulate operation within our customer applications.
151
+ Compliance with international safety agency standards is critical in every application, and power solutions play a major role in meeting these compliance requirements. Our safety engineers and quality assurance teams help ensure that our custom products are designed to meet all safety requirements and are appropriately documented to expedite safety approval processes.
152
+ Regulatory Requirements
153
+ We and our manufacturing partners are required to meet applicable regulatory, environmental, emissions, safety and other requirements where specified by the customer and accepted by us or as required by local regulatory or legal requirements. The products that we market and sell in Europe may be subject to the 2003 European Directive on Restriction of Hazardous Substances (“RoHS”), which restricts the use of six hazardous materials in the manufacture of certain electronic and electrical equipment, as well as the 2002 European Directive on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (“WEEE”), which determines collection, recycling and recovery goals for electrical goods. In July 2006, our industry began phasing in RoHS and WEEE requirements in most geographical markets with specific emphasis on consumer-based products. We believe that RoHS and WEEE-compliant components may be subject to longer lead-times and higher prices as the industry transitions to these new requirements.
154
+ Some of our products are subject to ITAR, which is administered by the U.S. Department of State. ITAR controls not only the export of certain products specifically designed, modified, configured or adapted for military systems, but also the export of related technical data and defense services and foreign production. We obtain required export licenses for any exports subject to ITAR. Compliance with ITAR may require a prolonged period of time; if the process of obtaining required export licenses for products subject to ITAR is delayed, it could have a materially adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and operating results. Any future restrictions or charges imposed by the United States or any other country on our international sales or sales by the operations of DPL, our foreign subsidiary, could have a materially adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and operating results. In addition, from time to time, we entered into contracts with defense contract manufacturers for the government of Israel’s defense programs, which were funded by, and governed by the regulations of, the U.S. Foreign Military Financing program.
155
+ Sales and Marketing
156
+ We market our products directly through our internal sales force as well as through a partner network of independent manufacturer representatives and distributors. Each representative organization is responsible for managing sales in a particular geographic territory. Generally, the representative has the opportunity to earn exclusive access to all potential customers in the assigned territory as a result of achieving its marketing and sales goals as defined in the representative agreement. Our manufacturer representative agreements provide for a commission equal to 5% of net sales of new “design-in” and 1.75% of net sales for retention, payable after the product is shipped, for any direct sale contribution. Typically, either we or the representative organization may terminate the agreement upon 30 days’ written notice.
157
+ 6
158
+ Historically, we have also sold products through multiple distributor arrangements which do not specify a particular territory. Each of these arrangements can be terminated by either party upon 30 days’ written notice.
159
+ Our promotional efforts, to date, have included product data sheets, participation in trade shows, and our website, www.digipwr.com. We use the corporate website to emphasize our capabilities and marketing direction. All products specifications are uploaded onto our website and accessible to the marketplace. We will continue to enhance our website by adding more features and functionalities, such as ecommerce, that will allow our customers to buy directly through our website. Our future promotional activities will likely include advertising in industry-specific publications, as well as public relations for our new products.
160
+ Engineering and Technology
161
+ Our engineering and product development efforts are primarily directed toward developing new products in connection with custom product design and modification of our standard power systems to provide a broad array of individual models.
162
+ Our new custom product design solutions are driven by our ability to provide to our customers advanced technology that meets their product needs and supports special operation and environmental requirements, with a short turnaround time and a very competitive price point. We believe that we are successfully executing our strategic account focus, as evidenced by the award of second and third generation product development contracts from some of these customers. Our standard contract for custom power solutions includes a multi-year high-volume production forecast that could allow us to secure long-term production guarantees while providing an environment that promotes the development of our IP portfolio.
163
+ We also partner with various design and contract engineering firms for development of some of our new products supported by our internal engineering services staff. Furthermore, we continue to leverage the close relationship we have with one of our major shareholders, Telkoor, to introduce new products that Telkoor develops for its market and makes available for us. Finally, from time to time, we modify standard products to meet specific customer requirements, including, but not limited to, converting commercial products into full military MIL-SPEC products and other unique modification and adjustments, when applicable. We are experiencing an increasing demand for ruggedization of commercial products for military applications. To meet that requirement, our engineering team continues to ruggedize commercial products, which we sell as commercial off the shelf products to some of our military customers. We continually seek to improve our product power density, adaptability, and efficiency, while attempting to anticipate changing market demands for increased functionality, such as PFC and improved EMI (electromagnetic interference) filtering. We continue to differentiate all of our products from commodity-type products by enhancing, modifying and customizing our existing product portfolio, using our engineering lab in California. In August 2010, we purchased the IP and production packages of the compact peripheral component interface (Compact PCI, or CPCI) AC/DC and DC/DC power supply series from Telkoor Power Systems Ltd. (“TPS”). The IP purchase was to support our strategy being a leader supplier of CPCI products for commercial and defense markets. We received from this purchase a rich portfolio of industry-leading CPCI AC/DC power supplies delivering 600 Watts and 650 Watt of continuous power. These hot-swappable power supplies feature N+1 redundant connection and active load current share. This IP strategic acquisition expands our presence for industrial, telecom, and military/defense applications that require increasing amounts of power. As a result of this purchase, we have decreased our manufacturing costs.
164

165
+ Competition
166
+ The power system solutions industry is highly fragmented and characterized by intense competition. Our competition includes hundreds of companies located throughout the world, some of which have advantages over us in terms of labor and component costs, and some of which may offer products comparable in quality to ours. Many of our competitors, including Power-One, Emerson (Astec) Technologies, Inc., Lambda Electronics, and Mean-Well Power Supplies, have substantially greater fiscal and marketing resources and geographic presence than we do. If we are successful in increasing our revenues, competitors may notice and increase competition with our customers. We also face competition from current and prospective customers who may decide to design and manufacture internally power supplies needed for their products. Furthermore, certain larger OEMs tend to contract only with larger power supply manufacturers.
167
+ We anticipate that with the current economic downturn, additional competitors may enter into strategic alliances or even acquisitions. Competition could thus become more problematic if consolidation trends in the electronics industry continue and some of the OEMs to whom we sell our products are acquired by larger OEMs. To remain competitive, we must continue to compete favorably on the basis of value by providing reliable manufacturing, offering customer-driven engineering services including custom design and manufacturing, continuously improving quality and reliability levels, and offering flexible and reliable delivery schedules.
168
+ We believe that our power system solutions and advanced product design have significant advantages in the power supply solutions market because they have higher efficiency and high-power density, or power-to-volume ratio, which make them smaller than the solutions offered by our competitors and can thus fit well in numerous custom environments in compliance with our customers’ requirements.
169
+ Another advantage of our power system solutions product line is based on the “Flexible” series that employs adjustable power range of product design. We believe we have a competitive position with our targeted customers who need a high-quality, compact product, which can be readily modified to meet the customer’s unique requirements. We have designed the base model power system platform so that it can be quickly and economically modified and adapted to the specific power needs of any hosting platform or OEM. This “flexibility” approach has allowed us to provide samples of modified power systems to OEM customers in only a few days after initial consultation, an important capability given the emphasis placed by OEMs on “time to market.” It also results in very low non-recurring engineering (“NRE”) expenses. Because of reduced NRE expenses, we do not generally charge our OEM customers for NRE related to tailoring a power system to a customer’s specific requirements. We believe this gives us an advantage over our competitors, many of which charge their customers for NRE expenses.
170
+ Raw Materials
171
+ The raw materials for power supplies principally consist of electronic components. These raw materials are available from a variety of sources, and we are not dependent on any one supplier. We generally allow our subcontractors to purchase components based on orders received or forecasts to minimize our risk of unusable inventory. To the extent necessary, we may allow them to procure materials prior to orders received to obtain shorter lead times and to achieve quantity discounts following a risk assessment. In addition, we have decided to directly procure certain long lead-time electronic components in an effort to reduce our lead-time.
172
+ Because of the global recession, many raw material vendors have reduced capacities, closed production lines and, in some cases, even discontinued their operations. As a result, there is a global shortage of certain electronic components, which has extended our production lead-time and our production costs. For example, in some cases, finished goods that used to be available in 12 weeks for a production purchase order are now available only after 22 weeks. Also, some materials are no longer available to support some of our products, thereby requiring us to search for cross materials or, even worse, redesign some of our products to support currently-available materials.
173
+ Intellectual Property
174
+ We rely upon a combination of trade secrets, industry expertise, confidential procedures, and contractual provisions to protect our intellectual property. We believe that because our products are continually updated and revised, obtaining patents would be costly and not beneficial. However, in the future, as we continue to develop unique core technology, we may seek to obtain patents for some of the core technology. On July 8, 2004, our trademark, “DP Digital Power – Powering Your Technologies,” was registered with the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
175
+ 8
176
+ Employees
177
+ As of December 31, 2011, we had 30 employees located in the United States and the United Kingdom, of whom seven were engaged in engineering and product development, eight in sales and marketing, eight in general operations and seven in general administration and finance. All but five of these employees are employed on a full-time basis. None of our employees are currently represented by a trade union. We consider our relations with our employees to be good.

+ Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
6
+ Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
7
+ Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
8
+ Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework. Our management has concluded that, as of December 31, 2011, our internal control over financial reporting was effective.

DPL is located in Salisbury, England, and designs, manufactures and sells power products and system solutions mainly for the European marketplace, including power conversion, power distribution equipment, DC/AC (Direct Current/Active Current) inverters and UPS (Uninterrupted Power Supply) products. DPL’s defense business has specialists in the field of naval applications of power distribution conversion.
6
+ We believe that we are one of the first companies in the power solutions industry to introduce a product strategy based on the premise that products developed with an extremely flexible architecture enable rapid modifications to meet unique customer requirements for non-standard output voltages. The development and implementation of this strategy has resulted in broad acceptance in the telecom/industrial, and increasingly in the medical market, segments for our new line of high density and high efficiency power products. These products set an industry standard for providing high-power output in package sizes that are among the smallest available for such commercial products.
7
+ We market and sell our products to many diverse market segments, including the telecom, industrial, medical and military/defense industries. Our products serve a global market, with an emphasis on North America and Europe. We offer a broad product variety, including a full custom product design, standard and modified-standard products. Our unique high-speed switching power rectifiers includes but is not limited to custom power products, front-end, open-frame, enclosed, Compact PCI, MicroTCA, PoE (Power over Ethernet) and other product solutions, providing power output from 50 to 24,000 watts.
8
+ In an effort to provide short lead-times, high quality products and competitive pricing to support our markets, we have entered into production agreements with several contract manufacturers located in Asia, primarily China. These agreements allow us to better control production costs and ensure high quality products deliverable in a timely manner to meet market demand.
9
+ We intend to remain an innovative leader in the development of cutting-edge custom power solutions and feature rich products to meet any customer needs and requirements, rugged power systems to meet harsh and extreme operation environmental requirements, and high performance, high efficiency, high-density and modular power systems. We are focusing today on developing even more high-grade custom power system solutions for numerous customers in a broadly diversified range of markets and challenging environments. Each product development is based on best of class performance criteria, including unique, advanced feature sets and a special layout to meet our customers’ unique operating conditions where efficiency, size and time to market are key to their success. We are taking initiatives to develop and sell high efficiency “green power” solutions.
10
+ Power System Solutions
11
+ We provide custom power system solutions, high-grade flexibility series power supply products, off-the-shelf products and value-added services to diverse industries and markets including military/defense, telecom, medical and industrial. We believe that our solutions leverage a combination of low leakage power emissions, high power density, superior power efficiency, design flexibility and short time to market.
12
+ Custom Power System Solution. We provide high-grade custom power system solutions to numerous customers in multiple industry segments. Each custom solution that we develop is based on high power density, digital power processing and a special layout to meet each of our customer’s unique operation environments where efficiency, size and performance are key. We combine our power design capabilities with the latest circuit designs to provide complete power solutions for virtually any need. In the design of custom power solutions, we work closely with our customers’ engineering teams to develop mechanical enclosures to ensure 100% compatibility with any hosted platform.
13
+ Our standard contract for custom power solutions includes a multi-year high-volume production forecast that allows us to secure long-term production guarantees (and therefore possible savings on manufacturing costs for volume orders) while providing an environment that promotes the development of our intellectual property (“IP”) portfolio. We believe that this business model provides an incentive to our customers to be committed to high-volume production orders.
14
+ High-Grade Flexibility Series Power Supply Product . We offer our feature rich based power rectifiers that support flexible configuration and high-grade design implementation. This include innovative designs and implementation including Digital Signal Processing (“DSP”) control for Power Factor Correction (“PFC”) and DC/DC, synchronous rectifier outputs under DSP control, two phase PFC, hot pluggable, current sharing and other features. While some of our customers have special requirements that include a full custom design, other customers may require only certain electrical changes to standard power supply products, such as modified output voltages and unique status and control signals, and mechanical repackaging tailored to fit the specific application. We offer a wide range of standard and modified standard products that can be easily integrated with any platform across our diversified market segments.
15
+ Value-Added Services . In addition to our custom solutions and high-grade flexibility series proprietary products that we offer, we also provide value-added services to original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”). We incorporate an OEM’s selected electronic components, enclosures, cable assemblies and other compliance components into our power system solutions to produce a power subassembly that is compatible with the OEM’s own equipment and specifically tailored to meet the OEM’s needs. We purchase parts and components that the OEM itself would otherwise attach to, or integrate with, our power systems, and provide the OEM with the integration and installation service, thus eliminating a complex, time-consuming and costly integration. We believe that this value-added service is well suited to those OEMs who wish to reduce their vendor base and minimize their investment in manufacturing that leads to increased fixed costs. Based on these value-added services, the OEMs do not need to build assembly facilities to manufacture their own power subassemblies and thus are not required to purchase individual parts from many vendors.

+ Strategy
140
+ Our strategy is to be the supplier of choice to those companies and OEMs requiring high-quality power system solutions where custom design, superior product, high quality, time to market and very competitive prices are critical to business success. We believe that we provide advanced custom product design services to deliver high-grade products that reach a high level of efficiency and density and can meet rigorous environmental requirements. Our customers benefit from a direct relationship with us that support all of their needs for designing and manufacturing power solutions and products. By implementing our advanced core technology, including process implementation in integrated circuits, we can provide cost reductions to our customers by replacing their existing power sources with our custom design cost-effective products.
141
+ Our target market segments include the industrial, telecommunication, medical, and military/defense industries. We do not participate in the personal computer power supply market because of the low margins arising out of the high volume and extremely competitive nature of that market.
142
+ Our strategy will continue to focus on expanding our market share by adding new customers from all of our target market segments. We are developing long term relationships, and we intend to expand our customer base in our commercial market segments, including medical, telecom and industrial, while continuing to maintain our existing customers. In the military and defense market segment, we will continue to provide advanced rugged products to customers, and we are striving to expand our business to support the military and defense industries. We believe that our custom power supply solutions, flexibility series, high-grade and high-efficiency power product solutions provide customers with a more effective choice as compared to products offered by other power solution competitors, due in part to a customer’s requirement for output voltages and other features such as redundancy and sense control tailored to its exact requirements within specific parameters.
143
+ Furthermore, we believe that we have the talent and engineering experience to satisfy any of our customers’ product or platform requirements. If an OEM customer specifies a different set of power system parameters, we will custom design or modify a product to meet the OEM’s requirements With a wide range of solutions from our custom designs to our high-grade flexibility series products, our professional design team can provide economical and timely product solutions to our OEM customers. In addition, as our power systems meet all appropriate environmental requirements and safety standards, our smaller OEM customers can expedite the process of independent safety agency testing by companies such as Underwriters Laboratories, and save considerable expense. By offering OEM customers choices with Digital Power’s custom, flexibility series, high-grade and high-efficiency power system solutions, we believe we provide certain strategic advantages over our competitors.
144
+ Digital Power Limited (Gresham Power Electronics)
145
+ Digital Power Limited, our wholly-owned subsidiary organized and headquartered in Salisbury, United Kingdom , designs, manufactures, and distributes switching power supplies, uninterruptible power supplies, and power conversion and distribution equipment frequency converters for the commercial and military markets, under the name Gresham Power Electronics (“Gresham”). Frequency converters manufactured by Gresham are used by navel warships to convert their generated 60-cycle electricity supply to 400 cycles. This 400-cycle supply is used to power their critical equipment such as gyro, compass, and weapons systems. Gresham also designs and manufactures transformer rectifiers for naval use. Typically, these provide battery supported back up for critical DC systems, such as machinery and communications. In addition, higher power rectifiers are used for the starting and servicing of helicopters on naval vessels, and Gresham now supplies these as part of overall helicopter start and servicing systems. We believe that Gresham products add diversity to our product line, provide greater access to the United Kingdom and European markets, and strengthen our engineering and technical resources.
146
+ Manufacturing and Testing
147
+ Consistent with our strategy of focusing on custom design products and high-grade flexibility series products, we aim to maintain a high degree of flexibility in our manufacturing through the use of strategically focused contract manufacturers. We select contract manufacturers to ensure that they will meet our near term cost, delivery, and quality goals. In addition, we believe these relationships will eventually give us access to new markets and beneficial cross-licensing opportunities. The competitive nature of the power supply industry has placed continual downward pressure on selling prices. In order to achieve our low cost manufacturing goals with labor-intensive products, we have entered into production agreements with certain contract manufacturers in Asia. At present, our principal contract manufacturers in Asia are Winco-Power Technology, Shenzhen Watt Electronics, Ultra Level Tech Co. Ltd, Teamwise and Energy Recovery Products.
148
+ 5
149
+ We sell certain products that are developed, manufactured and sold to us by Telkoor, an Israeli company that currently holds 42.3% of our outstanding common stock. In coordination with Telkoor, and in order to accelerate delivery and reduce the cost of some of the products we purchase from Telkoor, we have obtained the right to order products directly from Telkoor’s contract manufacturers, as well as from our own contract manufacturers in China, in exchange for the payment of royalties to Telkoor.
150
+ We are continually improving our internal processes, while monitoring the processes of our contract manufacturers, to ensure the highest quality and consistent manufacturing of our power solutions. We test all of our custom power assemblies per clearly defined test procedures developed by us and our customers. This approach ensures that our customers can use our systems right out of the box. Customer specific testing services are offered with custom designed test stands to simulate operation within our customer applications.
151
+ Compliance with international safety agency standards is critical in every application, and power solutions play a major role in meeting these compliance requirements. Our safety engineers and quality assurance teams help ensure that our custom products are designed to meet all safety requirements and are appropriately documented to expedite safety approval processes.
152
+ Regulatory Requirements
153
+ We and our manufacturing partners are required to meet applicable regulatory, environmental, emissions, safety and other requirements where specified by the customer and accepted by us or as required by local regulatory or legal requirements. The products that we market and sell in Europe may be subject to the 2003 European Directive on Restriction of Hazardous Substances (“RoHS”), which restricts the use of six hazardous materials in the manufacture of certain electronic and electrical equipment, as well as the 2002 European Directive on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (“WEEE”), which determines collection, recycling and recovery goals for electrical goods. In July 2006, our industry began phasing in RoHS and WEEE requirements in most geographical markets with specific emphasis on consumer-based products. We believe that RoHS and WEEE-compliant components may be subject to longer lead-times and higher prices as the industry transitions to these new requirements.
154
+ Some of our products are subject to ITAR, which is administered by the U.S. Department of State. ITAR controls not only the export of certain products specifically designed, modified, configured or adapted for military systems, but also the export of related technical data and defense services and foreign production. We obtain required export licenses for any exports subject to ITAR. Compliance with ITAR may require a prolonged period of time; if the process of obtaining required export licenses for products subject to ITAR is delayed, it could have a materially adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and operating results. Any future restrictions or charges imposed by the United States or any other country on our international sales or sales by DPL, our foreign subsidiary, could have a materially adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and operating results. In addition, from time to time, we entered into contracts with defense contract manufacturers for the government of Israel’s defense programs, which were funded by, and governed by the regulations of, the U.S. Foreign Military Financing program.
155
+ Sales and Marketing
156
+ We market our products directly through our internal sales force as well as through a partner network of independent manufacturer representatives and distributors. Each representative organization is responsible for managing sales in a particular geographic territory. Generally, the representative has the opportunity to earn exclusive access to all potential customers in the assigned territory as a result of achieving its marketing and sales goals as defined in the representative agreement. Our manufacturer representative agreements provide for a commission equal to 5% of net sales of new “design-in” and 1.75% of net sales for retention, payable after the product is shipped, for any direct sale contribution. Typically, either we or the representative organization may terminate the agreement upon 30 days’ written notice.
157
+ 6
158
+ Historically, we have also sold products through multiple distributor arrangements which do not specify a particular territory. Each of these arrangements can be terminated by either party upon 30 days’ written notice.
159
+ Our promotional efforts, to date, have included product data sheets, participation in trade shows, and our website, www.digipwr.com. We use the corporate website to emphasize our capabilities and marketing direction. All products specifications are uploaded onto our website and accessible to the marketplace. We will continue to enhance our website by adding more features and functionalities, such as ecommerce, that will allow our customers to buy directly through our website. Our future promotional activities will likely include advertising in industry-specific publications, as well as public relations for our new products.
160
+ Engineering and Technology
161
+ Our engineering and product development efforts are primarily directed toward developing new products in connection with custom product design and modification of our standard power systems to provide a broad array of individual models.
162
+ Our new custom product design solutions are driven by our ability to provide to our customers advanced technology that meets their product needs and supports special operation and environmental requirements, with a short turnaround time and a very competitive price point. We believe that we are successfully executing our strategic account focus, as evidenced by the award of second and third generation product development contracts from some of these customers. Our standard contract for custom power solutions includes a multi-year high-volume production forecast that could allow us to secure long-term production guarantees while providing an environment that promotes the development of our IP portfolio.
163
+ We also partner with various design and contract engineering firms for development of some of our new products supported by our internal engineering services staff. Furthermore, we continue to leverage the close relationship we have with one of our major shareholders, Telkoor, to introduce new products that Telkoor develops for its market and makes available for us. Finally, from time to time, we modify standard products to meet specific customer requirements, including, but not limited to, converting commercial products into full military MIL-SPEC products and other unique modification and adjustments, when applicable. We are experiencing an increasing demand for ruggedization of commercial products for military applications. To meet that requirement, our engineering team continues to ruggedize commercial products, which we sell as commercial off the shelf products to some of our military customers. We continually seek to improve our product power density, adaptability, and efficiency, while attempting to anticipate changing market demands for increased functionality, such as PFC and improved EMI (electromagnetic interference) filtering. We continue to differentiate all of our products from commodity-type products by enhancing, modifying and customizing our existing product portfolio, using our engineering lab in California. In August 2010, we purchased the IP and production packages of the compact peripheral component interface (Compact PCI, or CPCI) AC/DC and DC/DC power supply series from Telkoor Power Systems Ltd. (“TPS”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Telkoor. The IP purchase was to support our strategy being a leader supplier of CPCI products for commercial and defense markets. We received from this purchase a portfolio of industry-leading CPCI AC/DC power supplies delivering 600 Watts and 650 Watt of continuous power. These hot-swappable power supplies feature N+1 redundant connection and active load current share. This IP strategic acquisition expands our presence for industrial, telecom, and military/defense applications that require increasing amounts of power. As a result of this purchase, we have decreased our manufacturing costs.
164
+ 7
165
+ Competition
166
+ The power system solutions industry is highly fragmented and characterized by intense competition. Our competition includes hundreds of companies located throughout the world, some of which have advantages over us in terms of labor and component costs, and some of which may offer products comparable in quality to ours. Many of our competitors, including Power-One, Emerson (Astec) Technologies, Inc., Lambda Electronics, and Mean-Well Power Supplies, have substantially greater fiscal and marketing resources and geographic presence than we do. If we are successful in increasing our revenues, competitors may notice and increase competition with our customers. We also face competition from current and prospective customers who may decide to design and manufacture internally power supplies needed for their products. Furthermore, certain larger OEMs tend to contract only with larger power supply manufacturers.
167
+ We anticipate in the current economic situation, additional competitors may enter into strategic alliances or even acquisitions. Competition could thus become more problematic if consolidation trends in the electronics industry continue and some of the OEMs to whom we sell our products are acquired by larger OEMs. To remain competitive, we must continue to compete favorably on the basis of value by providing reliable manufacturing, offering customer-driven engineering services including custom design and manufacturing, continuously improving quality and reliability levels, and offering flexible and reliable delivery schedules.
168
+ We believe that our power system solutions and advanced product design have significant advantages in the power supply solutions market because they have higher efficiency and high-power density, or power-to-volume ratio, which make them smaller than the solutions offered by our competitors and can thus fit well in numerous custom environments in compliance with our customers’ requirements.
169
+ Another advantage of our power system solutions product line is based on the “Flexible” series that employs adjustable power range of product design. We believe we have a competitive position with our targeted customers who need a high-quality, compact product, which can be readily modified to meet the customer’s unique requirements. We have designed the base model power system platform so that it can be quickly and economically modified and adapted to the specific power needs of any hosting platform or OEM. This “flexibility” approach has allowed us to provide samples of modified power systems to OEM customers in only a few days after initial consultation, an important capability given the emphasis placed by OEMs on “time to market.” It also results in very low non-recurring engineering (“NRE”) expenses. Because of reduced NRE expenses, we do not generally charge our OEM customers for NRE related to tailoring a power system to a customer’s specific requirements. We believe this gives us an advantage over our competitors, many of which charge their customers for NRE expenses.
170
+ Raw Materials
171
+ The raw materials for power supplies principally consist of electronic components. These raw materials are available from a variety of sources, and we are not dependent on any one supplier. We generally allow our subcontractors to purchase components based on orders received or forecasts to minimize our risk of unusable inventory. To the extent necessary, we may allow them to procure materials prior to orders received to obtain shorter lead times and to achieve quantity discounts following a risk assessment. In addition, we have decided to directly procure certain long lead-time electronic components in an effort to reduce our lead-time.
172
+ Many raw material vendors have reduced capacities, closed production lines and, in some cases, even discontinued their operations. As a result, there is a global shortage of certain electronic components, which has extended our production lead-time and our production costs. For example, in some cases, finished goods that used to be available in 12 weeks for a production purchase order are now available only after 22 weeks. Also, some materials are no longer available to support some of our products, thereby requiring us to search for cross materials or, even worse, redesign some of our products to support currently-available materials.
173
+ Intellectual Property
174
+ We rely upon a combination of trade secrets, industry expertise, confidential procedures, and contractual provisions to protect our intellectual property. We believe that because our products are continually updated and revised, obtaining patents would be costly and not beneficial. However, in the future, as we continue to develop unique core technology, we may seek to obtain patents for some of the core technology. On July 8, 2004, our trademark, “DP Digital Power – Powering Your Technologies,” was registered with the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
175
+ 8
176
+ Employees
177
+ As of December 31, 2012, we had 29 employees located in the United States and the United Kingdom, of whom seven were engaged in engineering and product development, seven in sales and marketing, seven in general operations and eight in general administration and finance. All but four of these employees are employed on a full-time basis. None of our employees are currently represented by a trade union. We consider our relations with our employees to be good.

+ Relationship with Telkoor Power Supplies Ltd.
4
+ In the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, we purchased approximately $474,000 and $2,596,000, respectively, of products from Telkoor Power Supplies, Ltd., a wholly-owned subsidiary of our largest shareholder, Telkoor, of which Ben-Zion Diamant is the Chief Executive Officer. We have no written agreement for the purchase of these products, other than purchase orders that are placed in the ordinary course of business when the products are needed.

+ Purchase of IP from Telkoor by DPL
6
+ On August 25, 2010, we and our wholly-owned subsidiary, DPL, entered into an agreement with TPS, a wholly-owned subsidiary of our largest shareholder, Telkoor Telecom Ltd., of which Mr. Diamant is the Chief Executive Officer. Pursuant to such agreement, (1) TPS sold, assigned and conveyed to DPL all of its rights, title and interest in and to the intellectual property associated with the Compact Peripheral Component Interface 600 W AC/DC power supply series (the “Assets”) and (2) DPL granted to TPS an irrevocable license to sell the Assets in Israel on an exclusive basis. In consideration for the purchase of the Assets, DPL has paid TPS $480,000. The consideration for the license provided to TPS to sell the Assets in Israel is a royalty fee of 15% of TPS's direct production costs of sales, due on a quarterly basis.

+ On June 16, 2011 the Company has acquired 1,136,666 shares of Telkoor, a major shareholder of the Company and an Israeli company listed in the Tel Aviv stock exchange, for $0.88 (NIS 3) per share, which represents 8.8% of the outstanding shares of Telkoor. As a result of this transaction, an existing manufacturing agreement between Digital Power and Telkoor was updated and extended. Until September 30, 2012 the investment was accounted for as an available-for-sale investment and then reclassified the accounting of the investment at cost.

+ Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
6
+ Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
7
+ Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
8
+ Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework. Our management has concluded that, as of December 31, 2012, our internal control over financial reporting was effective.
9
+ This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to a provision under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act which grants a permanent exemption for non-accelerated filers from complying with Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

+ ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS.
2
+ General
3
+ Digital Power Corporation is a solution-driven organization that designs, develops, manufactures and sells high-grade customized and flexible power system solutions for the most demanding applications in the medical, military, telecom and industrial markets. We are highly focused on high-grade and custom product designs for both the commercial and military/defense markets, where customers demand high density, high efficiency and ruggedized products to meet the harshest and/or military mission critical operating conditions. We are a California corporation originally formed in 1969, and our common stock trades on the NYSE MKT under the symbol “DPW”. Our corporate headquarters are located in the heart of the Silicon Valley.
4
+ We also have a wholly-owned subsidiary, Digital Power Limited ("DPL"), which operates under the brand name of “Gresham Power Electronics” (“Gresham”). DPL is located in Salisbury, England, and designs, manufactures and sells power products and system solutions mainly for the European marketplace, including power conversion, power distribution equipment, DC/AC (Direct Current/Active Current) inverters and UPS (Uninterrupted Power Supply) products. DPL’s defense business has specialists in the field of naval applications of power distribution conversion.
5
+ We believe that we are one of the first companies in the power solutions industry to introduce a product strategy based on the premise that products developed with an extremely flexible architecture enable rapid modifications to meet unique customer requirements for non-standard output voltages. The development and implementation of this strategy has resulted in broad acceptance in the telecom/industrial, and increasingly in the medical market, segments for our new line of high density and high efficiency power products. These products set an industry standard for providing high-power output in package sizes that are among the smallest available for such commercial products.
6
+ We market and sell our products to many diverse market segments, including the telecom, industrial, medical and military/defense industries. Our products serve a global market, with an emphasis on North America and Europe. We offer a broad product variety, including a full custom product design, standard and modified-standard products. Our unique high-speed switching power rectifiers includes but is not limited to custom power products, front-end, open-frame, enclosed, Compact PCI, MicroTCA, PoE (Power over Ethernet) and other product solutions, providing power output from 50 to 24,000 watts.
7
+ 1
8
+ In an effort to provide short lead-times, high quality products and competitive pricing to support our markets, we have entered into production agreements with several contract manufacturers located in Asia, primarily China. These agreements allow us to better control production costs and ensure high quality products deliverable in a timely manner to meet market demand.
9
+ We intend to remain an innovative leader in the development of cutting-edge custom power solutions and feature rich products to meet any customer needs and requirements, rugged power systems to meet harsh and extreme operation environmental requirements, and high performance, high efficiency, high-density and modular power systems. We are focusing today on developing even more high-grade custom power system solutions for numerous customers in a broadly diversified range of markets and challenging environments. Each product development is based on best of class performance criteria, including unique, advanced feature sets and a special layout to meet our customers’ unique operating conditions where efficiency, size and time to market are key to their success. We are taking initiatives to develop and sell high efficiency “green power” solutions.
10
+ Power System Solutions
11
+ We provide custom power system solutions, high-grade flexibility series power supply products, off-the-shelf products and value-added services to diverse industries and markets including military/defense, telecom, medical and industrial. We believe that our solutions leverage a combination of low leakage power emissions, high power density, superior power efficiency, design flexibility and short time to market.
12
+ Custom Power System Solution. We provide high-grade custom power system solutions to numerous customers in multiple industry segments. Each custom solution that we develop is based on high power density, digital power processing and a special layout to meet each of our customer’s unique operation environments where efficiency, size and performance are key. We combine our power design capabilities with the latest circuit designs to provide complete power solutions for virtually any need. In the design of custom power solutions, we work closely with our customers’ engineering teams to develop mechanical enclosures to ensure 100% compatibility with any hosted platform.
13
+ Our standard contract for custom power solutions includes a multi-year high-volume production forecast that allows us to secure long-term production guarantees (and therefore possible savings on manufacturing costs for volume orders) while providing an environment that promotes the development of our intellectual property (“IP”) portfolio. We believe that this business model provides an incentive to our customers to be committed to high-volume production orders.
14
+ High-Grade Flexibility Series Power Supply Product . We offer our feature rich based power rectifiers that support flexible configuration and high-grade design implementation. This include innovative designs and implementation including Digital Signal Processing (“DSP”) control for Power Factor Correction (“PFC”) and DC/DC, synchronous rectifier outputs under DSP control, two phase PFC, hot pluggable, current sharing and other features. While some of our customers have special requirements that include a full custom design, other customers may require only certain electrical changes to standard power supply products, such as modified output voltages and unique status and control signals, and mechanical repackaging tailored to fit the specific application. We offer a wide range of standard and modified standard products that can be easily integrated with any platform across our diversified market segments.
15
+ Value-Added Services . In addition to our custom solutions and high-grade flexibility series proprietary products that we offer, we also provide value-added services to original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”). We incorporate an OEM’s selected electronic components, enclosures, cable assemblies and other compliance components into our power system solutions to produce a power subassembly that is compatible with the OEM’s own equipment and specifically tailored to meet the OEM’s needs. We purchase parts and components that the OEM itself would otherwise attach to, or integrate with, our power systems, and provide the OEM with the integration and installation service, thus eliminating a complex, time-consuming and costly integration. We believe that this value-added service is well suited to those OEMs who wish to reduce their vendor base and minimize their investment in manufacturing that leads to increased fixed costs. Based on these value-added services, the OEMs do not need to build assembly facilities to manufacture their own power subassemblies and thus are not required to purchase individual parts from many vendors.
16
+ 2
17
+ Our products have a warranty period from date of shipment to the customer.
18
+ Markets
19
+ We sell our custom power system solutions, high-grade flexibility series power supply products and value-added services to customers in a diverse range of commercial and defense industries and markets throughout the world, with an emphasis on North America and Europe. Our current customer base consists of approximately 200 companies, some of which are served through our partner channels.

141
+ Strategy
142
+ Our strategy is to be the supplier of choice to those companies and OEMs requiring high-quality power system solutions where custom design, superior product, high quality, time to market and very competitive prices are critical to business success. We believe that we provide advanced custom product design services to deliver high-grade products that reach a high level of efficiency and density and can meet rigorous environmental requirements. Our customers benefit from a direct relationship with us that support all of their needs for designing and manufacturing power solutions and products. By implementing our advanced core technology, including process implementation in integrated circuits, we can provide cost reductions to our customers by replacing their existing power sources with our custom design cost-effective products.
143
+ Our target market segments include the industrial, telecommunication, medical, and military/defense industries. We do not participate in the personal computer power supply market because of the low margins arising out of the high volume and extremely competitive nature of that market.
144
+ Our strategy will continue to focus on expanding our market share by adding new customers from all of our target market segments. We are developing long term relationships, and we intend to expand our customer base in our commercial market segments, including medical, telecom and industrial, while continuing to maintain our existing customers. In the military and defense market segment, we will continue to provide advanced rugged products to customers, and we are striving to expand our business to support the military and defense industries. We believe that our custom power supply solutions, flexibility series, high-grade and high-efficiency power product solutions provide customers with a more effective choice as compared to products offered by other power solution competitors, due in part to a customer’s requirement for output voltages and other features such as redundancy and sense control tailored to its exact requirements within specific parameters.
145
+ Furthermore, we believe that we have the talent and engineering experience to satisfy any of our customers’ product or platform requirements. If an OEM customer specifies a different set of power system parameters, we will custom design or modify a product to meet the OEM’s requirements With a wide range of solutions from our custom designs to our high-grade flexibility series products, our professional design team can provide economical and timely product solutions to our OEM customers. In addition, as our power systems meet all appropriate environmental requirements and safety standards, our smaller OEM customers can expedite the process of independent safety agency testing by companies such as Underwriters Laboratories, and save considerable expense. By offering OEM customers choices with Digital Power’s custom, flexibility series, high-grade and high-efficiency power system solutions, we believe we provide certain strategic advantages over our competitors.
146
+ Digital Power Limited (Gresham Power Electronics)
147
+ Digital Power Limited, our wholly-owned subsidiary organized and headquartered in Salisbury, United Kingdom , designs, manufactures, and distributes switching power supplies, uninterruptible power supplies, and power conversion and distribution equipment frequency converters for the commercial and military markets, under the name Gresham Power Electronics (“Gresham”). Frequency converters manufactured by Gresham are used by navel warships to convert their generated 60-cycle electricity supply to 400 cycles. This 400-cycle supply is used to power their critical equipment such as gyro, compass, and weapons systems. Gresham also designs and manufactures transformer rectifiers for naval use. Typically, these provide battery supported back up for critical DC systems, such as machinery and communications. In addition, higher power rectifiers are used for the starting and servicing of helicopters on naval vessels, and Gresham now supplies these as part of overall helicopter start and servicing systems. We believe that Gresham products add diversity to our product line, provide greater access to the United Kingdom and European markets, and strengthen our engineering and technical resources.
148
+ Manufacturing and Testing
149
+ Consistent with our strategy of focusing on custom design products and high-grade flexibility series products, we aim to maintain a high degree of flexibility in our manufacturing through the use of strategically focused contract manufacturers. We select contract manufacturers to ensure that they will meet our near term cost, delivery, and quality goals. In addition, we believe these relationships will eventually give us access to new markets and beneficial cross-licensing opportunities. The competitive nature of the power supply industry has placed continual downward pressure on selling prices. In order to achieve our low cost manufacturing goals with labor-intensive products, we have entered into production agreements with certain contract manufacturers in Asia. At present, our principal contract manufacturers in Asia are Winco-Power Technology, Shenzhen Watt Electronics, Ultra Level Tech Co. Ltd, Teamwise and Energy Recovery Products.
150
+ 5
151
+ We sell certain products that are developed, manufactured and sold to us by Telkoor, an Israeli company that currently holds 42.3% of our outstanding common stock. In coordination with Telkoor, and in order to accelerate delivery and reduce the cost of some of the products we purchase from Telkoor, we have obtained the right to order products directly from Telkoor’s contract manufacturers, as well as from our own contract manufacturers in China, in exchange for the payment of royalties to Telkoor.
152
+ We are continually improving our internal processes, while monitoring the processes of our contract manufacturers, to ensure the highest quality and consistent manufacturing of our power solutions. We test all of our custom power assemblies per clearly defined test procedures developed by us and our customers. This approach ensures that our customers can use our systems right out of the box. Customer specific testing services are offered with custom designed test stands to simulate operation within our customer applications.
153
+ Compliance with international safety agency standards is critical in every application, and power solutions play a major role in meeting these compliance requirements. Our safety engineers and quality assurance teams help ensure that our custom products are designed to meet all safety requirements and are appropriately documented to expedite safety approval processes.
154
+ Regulatory Requirements
155
+ We and our manufacturing partners are required to meet applicable regulatory, environmental, emissions, safety and other requirements where specified by the customer and accepted by us or as required by local regulatory or legal requirements. The products that we market and sell in Europe may be subject to the 2003 European Directive on Restriction of Hazardous Substances (“RoHS”), which restricts the use of six hazardous materials in the manufacture of certain electronic and electrical equipment, as well as the 2002 European Directive on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (“WEEE”), which determines collection, recycling and recovery goals for electrical goods. In July 2006, our industry began phasing in RoHS and WEEE requirements in most geographical markets with specific emphasis on consumer-based products. We believe that RoHS and WEEE-compliant components may be subject to longer lead-times and higher prices as the industry transitions to these new requirements.

+ Some of our products are subject to ITAR, which is administered by the U.S. Department of State. ITAR controls not only the export of certain products specifically designed, modified, configured or adapted for military systems, but also the export of related technical data and defense services and foreign production. We obtain required export licenses for any exports subject to ITAR. Compliance with ITAR may require a prolonged period of time; if the process of obtaining required export licenses for products subject to ITAR is delayed, it could have a materially adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and operating results. Any future restrictions or charges imposed by the United States or any other country on our international sales or sales by DPL, our foreign subsidiary, could have a materially adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and operating results. In addition, from time to time, we entered into contracts with defense contract manufacturers for the government of Israel’s defense programs, which were funded by, and governed by the regulations of, the U.S. Foreign Military Financing program.
157
+ Sales and Marketing
158
+ We market our products directly through our internal sales force as well as through a partner network of independent manufacturer representatives and distributors. Each representative organization is responsible for managing sales in a particular geographic territory. Generally, the representative has the opportunity to earn exclusive access to all potential customers in the assigned territory as a result of achieving its marketing and sales goals as defined in the representative agreement. Our manufacturer representative agreements provide for a commission equal to 5% of net sales of new “design-in” and 1.75% of net sales for retention, payable after the product is shipped, for any direct sale contribution. Typically, either we or the representative organization may terminate the agreement upon 30 days’ written notice.
159
+ 6
160
+ Historically, we have also sold products through multiple distributor arrangements which do not specify a particular territory. Each of these arrangements can be terminated by either party upon 30 days’ written notice.
161
+ Our promotional efforts, to date, have included product data sheets, participation in trade shows, and our website, www.digipwr.com. We use the corporate website to emphasize our capabilities and marketing direction. All products specifications are uploaded onto our website and accessible to the marketplace. We will continue to enhance our website by adding more features and functionalities, such as ecommerce, that will allow our customers to buy directly through our website. Our future promotional activities will likely include advertising in industry-specific publications, as well as public relations for our new products.
162
+ Engineering and Technology
163
+ Our engineering and product development efforts are primarily directed toward developing new products in connection with custom product design and modification of our standard power systems to provide a broad array of individual models.
164
+ Our new custom product design solutions are driven by our ability to provide to our customers advanced technology that meets their product needs and supports special operation and environmental requirements, with a short turnaround time and a very competitive price point. We believe that we are successfully executing our strategic account focus, as evidenced by the award of second and third generation product development contracts from some of these customers. Our standard contract for custom power solutions includes a multi-year high-volume production forecast that could allow us to secure long-term production guarantees while providing an environment that promotes the development of our IP portfolio.
165
+ We also partner with various design and contract engineering firms for development of some of our new products supported by our internal engineering services staff. Furthermore, we continue to leverage the close relationship we have with one of our major shareholders, Telkoor, to introduce new products that Telkoor develops for its market and makes available for us. Finally, from time to time, we modify standard products to meet specific customer requirements, including, but not limited to, converting commercial products into full military MIL-SPEC products and other unique modification and adjustments, when applicable. We are experiencing an increasing demand for ruggedization of commercial products for military applications. To meet that requirement, our engineering team continues to ruggedize commercial products, which we sell as commercial off the shelf products to some of our military customers. We continually seek to improve our product power density, adaptability, and efficiency, while attempting to anticipate changing market demands for increased functionality, such as PFC and improved EMI (electromagnetic interference) filtering. We continue to differentiate all of our products from commodity-type products by enhancing, modifying and customizing our existing product portfolio, using our engineering lab in California. In August 2010, we purchased the IP and production packages of the compact peripheral component interface (Compact PCI, or CPCI) AC/DC and DC/DC power supply series from Telkoor Power Systems Ltd. (“TPS”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Telkoor. The IP purchase was to support our strategy being a leader supplier of CPCI products for commercial and defense markets. We received from this purchase a portfolio of industry-leading CPCI AC/DC power supplies delivering 600 Watts and 650 Watt of continuous power. These hot-swappable power supplies feature N+1 redundant connection and active load current share. This IP strategic acquisition expands our presence for industrial, telecom, and military/defense applications that require increasing amounts of power. As a result of this purchase, we have decreased our manufacturing costs.

167
+ Competition
168
+ The power system solutions industry is highly fragmented and characterized by intense competition. Our competition includes hundreds of companies located throughout the world, some of which have advantages over us in terms of labor and component costs, and some of which may offer products comparable in quality to ours. Many of our competitors, including Power-One, Emerson (Astec) Technologies, Inc., Lambda Electronics, and Mean-Well Power Supplies, have substantially greater fiscal and marketing resources and geographic presence than we do. If we are successful in increasing our revenues, competitors may notice and increase competition with our customers. We also face competition from current and prospective customers who may decide to design and manufacture internally power supplies needed for their products. Furthermore, certain larger OEMs tend to contract only with larger power supply manufacturers.
169
+ We anticipate in the current economic situation, additional competitors may enter into strategic alliances or even acquisitions. Competition could thus become more problematic if consolidation trends in the electronics industry continue and some of the OEMs to whom we sell our products are acquired by larger OEMs. To remain competitive, we must continue to compete favorably on the basis of value by providing reliable manufacturing, offering customer-driven engineering services including custom design and manufacturing, continuously improving quality and reliability levels, and offering flexible and reliable delivery schedules.
170
+ We believe that our power system solutions and advanced product design have significant advantages in the power supply solutions market because they have higher efficiency and high-power density, or power-to-volume ratio, which make them smaller than the solutions offered by our competitors and can thus fit well in numerous custom environments in compliance with our customers’ requirements.
171
+ Another advantage of our power system solutions product line is based on the “Flexible” series that employs adjustable power range of product design. We believe we have a competitive position with our targeted customers who need a high-quality, compact product, which can be readily modified to meet the customer’s unique requirements. We have designed the base model power system platform so that it can be quickly and economically modified and adapted to the specific power needs of any hosting platform or OEM. This “flexibility” approach has allowed us to provide samples of modified power systems to OEM customers in only a few days after initial consultation, an important capability given the emphasis placed by OEMs on “time to market.” It also results in very low non-recurring engineering (“NRE”) expenses. Because of reduced NRE expenses, we do not generally charge our OEM customers for NRE related to tailoring a power system to a customer’s specific requirements. We believe this gives us an advantage over our competitors, many of which charge their customers for NRE expenses.
172
+ Raw Materials
173
+ The raw materials for power supplies principally consist of electronic components. These raw materials are available from a variety of sources, and we are not dependent on any one supplier. We generally allow our subcontractors to purchase components based on orders received or forecasts to minimize our risk of unusable inventory. To the extent necessary, we may allow them to procure materials prior to orders received to obtain shorter lead times and to achieve quantity discounts following a risk assessment. In addition, we have decided to directly procure certain long lead-time electronic components in an effort to reduce our lead-time.
174
+ Many raw material vendors have reduced capacities, closed production lines and, in some cases, even discontinued their operations. As a result, there is a global shortage of certain electronic components, which has extended our production lead-time and our production costs. For example, in some cases, finished goods that used to be available in 12 weeks for a production purchase order are now available only after 22 weeks. Also, some materials are no longer available to support some of our products, thereby requiring us to search for cross materials or, even worse, redesign some of our products to support currently-available materials.
175
+ Intellectual Property
176
+ We rely upon a combination of trade secrets, industry expertise, confidential procedures, and contractual provisions to protect our intellectual property. We believe that because our products are continually updated and revised, obtaining patents would be costly and not beneficial. However, in the future, as we continue to develop unique core technology, we may seek to obtain patents for some of the core technology. On July 8, 2004, our trademark, “DP Digital Power – Powering Your Technologies,” was registered with the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
177
+ 8
178
+ Employees
179
+ As of December 31, 2013, we had 28 employees located in the United States and the United Kingdom, of whom seven were engaged in engineering and product development, eight in sales and marketing, seven in general operations and six in general administration and finance. All but three of these employees are employed on a full-time basis. None of our employees are currently represented by a trade union. We consider our relations with our employees to be good.

+ Relationship with Telkoor Power Supplies Ltd.
3
+ In the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, we purchased approximately $1,381,000 and $474,000, respectively, of products from Telkoor Power Supplies, Ltd., a wholly-owned subsidiary of our largest shareholder, Telkoor, of which Ben-Zion Diamant is the Chief Executive Officer. We have no written agreement for the purchase of these products, other than purchase orders that are placed in the ordinary course of business when the products are needed.
4
+ Purchase of IP from Telkoor by DPL
5
+ On August 25, 2010, we and our wholly-owned subsidiary, DPL, entered into an agreement with TPS, a wholly-owned subsidiary of our largest shareholder, Telkoor Telecom Ltd., of which Mr. Diamant is the Chief Executive Officer. Pursuant to such agreement, (1) TPS sold, assigned and conveyed to DPL all of its rights, title and interest in and to the intellectual property associated with the Compact Peripheral Component Interface 600 W AC/DC power supply series (the “Assets”) and (2) DPL granted to TPS an irrevocable license to sell the Assets in Israel on an exclusive basis. In consideration for the purchase of the Assets, DPL has paid TPS $480,000. The consideration for the license provided to TPS to sell the Assets in Israel is a royalty fee of 15% of TPS's direct production costs of sales, due on a quarterly basis. In accordance with the agreement, the consideration for the IP may be reduced over a four-year period in the event annual sales for each year between 2011 and 2014 are less than a fixed threshold of units on an annual basis based upon an offset value per unit as described in the agreement. If there is a shortfall in sale of units in one annual period and in the subsequent period the Company sells more than the fixed unit threshold, this difference will be offset from any reduced consideration in any annual periods between 2011 and 2014. As a result of lower than anticipated sales by our DPL subsidiary of the Compact Peripheral Component Interface 600W AC/DC power supply series (CPCI 600W) through 2013, the Company amended its agreement with Telkoor (effective January 1, 2014 for the duration of the original agreement or until the shortfall of CPCI 600W product sales will be offset) to include additional products in addition to the original CPCI 600W product. We will not be required to make any royalty payments to Telkoor under the Manufacturing Agreement with Telkoor (described below) until the shortfall of CPCI 600W product sales will be offset.

As a result of this transaction, an existing manufacturing agreement between Digital Power and Telkoor was updated and extended. Until September 30, 2012 the investment was accounted for as an available-for-sale investment and then reclassified the accounting of the investment at cost less accumulated impairments derived from independent appraisals or available market valuations

+ Manufacturing Agreement with Telkoor
9
+ On December 31, 2012, the Company entered into a Manufacturing Rights Agreement (the "Manufacturing Agreement") with Telkoor, pursuant to which among other things, Telkoor granted to the Company the non-exclusive right to directly place purchase orders for certain products from third party manufacturers for the purpose of marketing, selling and distributing the products for telecom, industrial, medical and military market segments in North and South America in consideration for the payment of royalty fees by the Company to Telkoor. The royalty fees paid by the Company to Telkoor under the Manufacturing Agreement are between 5% and 25%, depending on the product. The Company incurred $44,000 in Telkoor royalty expense in 2013.The Manufacturing Agreement has a term of five years from the date of signature. During the agreement, Telkoor agreed not to directly or indirectly participate or engage, or assist any other party in engaging or preparing to engage, the customers of the Company in North and South America in connection with the sale or distribution of any of the products under the Manufacturing Agreement. We will not be required to make any royalty payments to Telkoor under the Manufacturing Agreement with Telkoor until the shortfall of CPCI 600W product sales will be offset, as described under “Purchase of IP from Telkoor by DPL” above.

+ Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
5
+ Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
6
+ Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
7
+ Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework. Our management has concluded that, as of December 31, 2013, our internal control over financial reporting was effective.
8
+ This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to a provision under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act which grants a permanent exemption for non-accelerated filers from complying with Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.
9
+ Evaluation of Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
10
+ There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended December 31, 2013 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
