Introduction

Founded in 1979, Silicon Valley Research, Inc. ("SVR") develops and markets advanced 
Electronic Design Automation ("EDA") software used 
by integrated circuit ("IC") vendors, integrated circuit manufacturers, large electronic 
systems manufacturers and major aerospace, automotive 
and consumer electronics companies to create the physical design of their ICs. In addition, 
SVR's Design Services Division, Quality IC 
Corporation, provides the IC design industry a comprehensive set of design project support 
services. For the six months ended September 
2000, revenues rose 45% to $1 million.

Outlook Summary

On November 13, 2000 the Company announced a vendor agreement with e*ECAD in 
which it will offer selected tools through e*ECAD's Web 
service on a pay-per-use basis. The new pricing structure will enable the Company to offer 
flexible pricing solutions to worldwide customers. The 
new distribution and pricing model offered by e*ECAD allows customers to download, install 
and run the tools they need and only be charged 
for the actual usage time.

"We have listened to our customers and the market place and the message was 
overwhelmingly consistent - customers want to pay for tools 
when they use them and pay for support when they need it," said James Benouis, SVR's 
President and CEO. "No maintenance or upfront 
licensing fees. Simple, pay-per-use licensing over the Internet is the future and we are 
committing whole-heartedly to this new model."  
SVR's two most widely used legacy products, GARDS and SC, are currently available to 
download from the e*ECAD website on a pay-per-use 
basis. The Company announced on January 16, 2001 that it plans to release more products 
on e*ECAD in the near future.

During the Company's recent annual shareholder meeting on December 19, 2000, Mr. 
Benouis stated "The transition to the new Internet 
licensing model is going well...Not only are new customers embracing e*ECAD, but we are 
also selling upgrades, new licenses and consulting 
services as a result of going on-line." During his presentation, Mr. Benouis re-emphasized to 
the investors that the Company's current focus is 
increasing its customer base. At the meeting, he projected that the Company would have 
50 new customers by the Design Automation 
Conference ("DAC") in June 2001.

In addition, Lisa Evans, Investor Relations contact, reviewed the Company's stock 
performance since the 1999 Annual Meeting (September 
13). The Company's stock price on December 15, 2000 was 57% higher than the stock 
price on the 1999 Annual Meeting date. The Average 
Weekly Volume for the year increased 874% from 218,804 for the prior year to 2,134,938. 
The number of shareholders also increased from 
approximately 3,200 in 1999 to over 5,500 currently.

The Company has recently signed the San Diego-based Charterbridge Financial Group, Inc. 
("Charterbridge") to provide the Company with 
investor relations and financial consulting services. 
James Benouis, the Company's President and CEO, stated, "We look forward to an 
excellent working relationship with Charterbridge Financial. 
Their effort will assist us in increasing valuable support in the market while we concentrate 
on our core competencies, ultimately building 
shareholder value."
