To Board of Directors and Shareholders of
Lumera Corporation:

In our opinion, the financial statements listed in the accompanying index present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Lumera Corporation at December 31, 2005 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. In addition, in our opinion, the financial statement schedule listed in the accompanying index presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein when read in conjunction with the related financial statements. These financial statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial statement schedule based on our audit. We conducted our audit of these statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Lumera Corporation (the "Company" or "Lumera") was incorporated in Washington State in early 2000 and reincorporated in Delaware in 2004, and was established to develop, manufacture and market devices using proprietary polymer materials. Until December 31, 2003, we were considered to be in the development stage. In early 2004, we commercialized the devices for potential wireless networking and optical networking applications and had largely completed financial planning, establishing sources of supply, acquiring plant and equipment and recruiting personnel. Therefore, we were considered to have exited the development stage in 2004. On July 28, 2004 when we completed its initial public offering ("IPO") of 6.0 million shares of common stock at an offering price of $6.95 per share, raising proceeds of $38.7 million before expenses. We were a majority owned subsidiary of Microvision, Inc. ("Microvision") until our IPO (see Note 3).

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. We have identified revenue recognition and accounting for research payments under the University of Washington agreements as areas where significant estimates and assumptions have been made in preparing the financial statements. We also evaluate the requirement for allowances for uncollectible receivables, and the valuation allowances for deferred income tax assets.

Cash and Cash Equivalents - We consider all highly liquid investment securities with remaining maturities, at the date of purchase, of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Management determines the appropriate classification of investment securities at the time of purchase and evaluates such designation as of each balance sheet date. We have classified its entire investment portfolio as available-for-sale. Available-for-sale securities are stated at fair value with unrealized gains and losses included in shareholders equity (deficit) as a component of other comprehensive income (loss), unless the loss is deemed to be other-than-temporary, in which case it is recognized immediately as an expense. We estimate the fair value of our investment securities using readily available market information. Dividend and interest income are recognized when earned. Realized gains and losses are included in interest income or expense. The cost of securities is based on the specific identification method.

Concentration of Credit Risk - Financial instruments that potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk are primarily cash and cash equivalents and investments. We have a cash investment policy that generally restricts investments to ensure preservation of principal and maintenance of liquidity. We typically do not require collateral from our customers. We make a provision for doubtful accounts when required. To date, we have not experienced any bad debts.

Revenue Recognition - Revenue has primarily been generated from research and development cost reimbursement contracts for the United States government. Revenue on such contracts is recorded using the percentage-of-completion method measured on a cost-incurred basis. Changes in contract performance, contract conditions, and estimated profitability, including those arising from contract penalty provisions and final contract settlements, may result in revisions to costs and revenues and are recognized in the period in which the revisions are determined. Profit incentives are included in revenue when realization is assured.

Losses, if any, are recognized in full as soon as identified. Losses occur when the estimated direct and indirect costs to complete the contract exceed the unrecognized revenue on the contract. We evaluate the reserve for contract losses on a contract-by-contract basis. No losses have been incurred on any contracts to date.

The following table summarizes our contract revenue activity from our inception through December 31, 2005:

All of our current and prior contracts with the government have been or are cost plus fixed fee type contracts. Under the terms of a cost plus fixed fee contract, the United States government pays us for actual direct and indirect costs incurred in performing the contracted services. We are under no obligation to spend more than the contract value to complete the contracted services. In addition, completion of the contracted services is generally on a best efforts basis. If the services are not completed, the government has the option to negotiate a follow-on contract to complete the services or to not pursue the services further with us. Contract deliveries consist of monthly financial reports, periodic technical reports and any devices if they have been successfully fabricated. There are no contractual provisions for repayments of any amounts disbursed to date under these contracts. The United States government accounted for 95% of revenues in 2005. Certain contracts awarded in one period may be partly performed in the next period.

Cost and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts comprises amounts of revenue recognized on contracts that we have not yet billed to a customer because the amounts were not contractually billable at the balance sheet date. We were contractually able to bill 89% of the balance at December 31, 2005, within 30 days of the year end.

Property and Equipment - Property and equipment is stated at cost. Depreciation is computed over the estimated useful lives of the assets (two to five years) using the straight-line method. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of estimated useful lives or the initial lease term.

A summary of property and equipment at December 31 follows:

Depreciation expense was $1,297,000 for 2005.

Valuation of Long-Lived Assets - We review the carrying value of long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of such assets may not be recoverable. Measurement of the impairment loss is based on the fair value of the asset, or group of assets. Generally, fair value will be determined using valuation techniques such as present value of expected future cash flows.

Research and Development - Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. As described in Note 10, we issued shares of common stock in connection with a research agreement. The value of these shares is amortized over the period of the research agreement.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments - Our financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, investment securities, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities. The carrying amounts of financial instruments approximate fair value due to their short maturities.

Income Taxes - hawse have filed a separate tax return since inception. We follow the liability method of accounting for income taxes. This liability method requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

Stock Based Compensation - We have a stock-based employee compensation plan, which is described further in Note 7. We account for stock-based employee compensation arrangements on the intrinsic value method in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion ("APB") No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees and related amendments and interpretations. We comply with the disclosure provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, which requires fair value recognition for employee stock-based compensation. We account for equity instruments issued to non-employees in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 123 and Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") Issue No. 96- 18.

Total non-cash stock option expense related to employee and director awards was $384,000 for the year ended December 31, 2005. Had compensation cost for employee options been determined using the fair values at the grant dates, consistent with the methodology prescribed under SFAS No. 123, our net loss available to common shareholders and associated net loss per share would have increased to the pro forma amounts indicated below:

See Note 7 for the assumptions used in calculating the fair values of employee options.

Net Loss per Share - Basic net loss per share is calculated on the basis of the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the periods. Net loss per share assuming dilution is calculated on the basis of the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding and the dilutive effect of all potentially dilutive securities, including common stock equivalents and convertible securities.

Basic and diluted net loss per share is the same because all potentially dilutive securities outstanding are anti-dilutive. Potentially dilutive securities not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share include options and warrants to purchase common stock for all periods presented. Total common stock options and common stock warrants not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share were 3,160,502 for 2005.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements - Beginning in January 2006 we will be recording expenses associated with share-based awards under the provisions of SFAS(123)R using the modified prospective method. Under this method, we will record not only the fair value associated with new share-based awards as compensation expense, but also the remaining fair value associated with previous awards which were unvested at the end of 2005. As of December 31, 2005 the fair value associated with unvested stock option grants given to employees in periods before 2006 was approximately $1,696,000 which will be expensed through 2009. We expect that the adoption of FAS123(R) on January 1, 2006 will impact 2006 earnings in the range of $2.5 million to $3.5 million.

Investment securities, which had maturities of less than one year, totaled $16,871,000 at December 31, 2005. We estimate the fair value of our investment securities using readily available market information. All investment securities have been classified as available-for-sale and are carried at estimated fair value with unrealized gains and losses included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income in stockholders' equity. We had an unrealized gain on investment securities of $127,000 for the year ending December 31, 2005. We have concluded that these unrealized investment gains and losses are temporary due to our ability to hold these investments to maturity.

We had no net realized gains (losses) on investment securities for the year ending December 31, 2005 and 2004.

Since inception until July 2004 we were a majority owned subsidiary of Microvision, Inc. The following table describes Microvision's ownership of Lumera at December 31:

In July 2004, all outstanding shares of the our Series A convertible preferred stock, Series B convertible preferred stock and Class B common stock were automatically converted to common stock upon completion of our IPO in July 2004. Prior to the IPO, Microvision owned approximately 52% of our outstanding common stock on an as if converted basis. In January 2006, Microvision sold 2.55 million of its shares, or approximately 16% of our outstanding shares; most of Microvision's remaining Lumera shares, which total approximately 12% of our outstanding shares as of March 1, 2006, are pledged as collateral under agreements which remain in effect until March 2007. Richard F. Rutkowski, until January 2006 the Chief Executive Officer of Microvision, was a current member of Microvision's board of directors and also a director of Lumera.

In 2004, we entered into a sublease agreement with Microvision for its corporate facilities at a base rate of approximately $25,000 per month, plus common area charges, which is effective through April 6, 2006.

The following are a summary of charges we paid to Microvision for the year ended December 31:

Accrued liabilities consist of the following at December 31:

No provision for income taxes has been recorded for any periods presented since we have incurred net losses from the date of our inception.

At December 31, 2005, we had $44.1 million of federal net operating loss carry forwards, which may be used to offset future taxable income. These carry forwards expire beginning in 2018 through 2024. The Internal Revenue Code places certain limitations on the annual amount of net operating loss carry forwards that can be utilized if certain changes in our ownership occur.

At December 31, 2005 we had $1,055,000 of research and experimentation credits carry forwards which begin to expire in 2019 through 2024.

Deferred taxes consist of the following at December 31:

We recorded a valuation allowance for the full amount of its deferred tax assets at December 31, 2005, as we believe it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

The valuation allowance and the research and experimentation credits account for substantially all of the difference between our effective income tax rate and the Federal statutory rate of 34%.

At December 31, 2005, our authorized capital consisted of 120 million shares of Common Stock, of which 1,299,956 shares are reserved for options granted under our 2000 Stock Option Plan and 2,500,000 shares are reserved for outstanding and future option grants under our 2004 Equity Incentive Plan. We also have 30,000,000 shares of authorized undesignated preferred stock, none of which have been issued.

In July 2004 we completed our initial public offering (the "IPO"), issuing 6 million shares of common stock at $6.95 per share. Upon completion of the IPO all outstanding shares of our Common A and B and Preferred A and B shares were automatically converted to common shares. At December 31, 2005 there were 16,748,116 shares of common stock outstanding.

Common Stock - In March 2000, we issued 4,700,000 shares of its Class B common stock to Microvision, Inc. and 670,000 shares of its Class B common stock to certain Microvision directors, executives, and other individuals ("individuals"). The shares issued to Microvision were valued at $94,000 and the proceeds were offset against the outstanding loan balance due. The shares issued to the individuals were valued at $12,000 and were issued subject to subscription loans, for which cash was received in November 2000.

In January 2001, we issued 802,414 shares of Class A common stock valued at $3,009,000 in connection with the research agreement described in Note 10.

Upon our initial public offering in July 2004 all shares of common A and B were automatically converted to Common Stock on a one-for-one basis.

Convertible Preferred Stock - In March 2004, we raised $500,000 from the sale of 250,000 shares of Series B convertible preferred stock to private investors issued in March 2004. The $2 per share conversion price of the Series B convertible preferred stock issued was less than the fair value of the Class A common stock on the issuance date. As a result, we recorded a $500,000 beneficial conversion feature upon issuance of the preferred stock. This amount was immediately recorded as a deemed dividend to preferred shareholders because the Series B convertible preferred stock had no stated term and was immediately convertible into Class A common stock.

Upon our initial public offering in July 2004 all shares of convertible preferred stock were automatically converted to Common Stock. Each Series A Preferred share was converted into 1.14 shares of common stock in accordance with anti-dilution provisions enacted upon the sale of the Preferred B shares resulting in 2,727,291 shares of common stock issued in exchange for 2,400,000 Series A Preferred shares. Each share of Series B Preferred was exchanged for common shares on a one-for-one basis, resulting in the issuance of 1,585,025 shares of common stock issued in exchange for the Series B Preferred shares.

Dividends - No dividends on convertible preferred stock or common stock have been declared from inception through December 31, 2005.

Stock Option Plans In 2000, we adopted the 2000 Stock Option Plan (the "2000 Plan"). The 2000 Plan provided for the granting of stock options to our employees, consultants and non-employee directors. We reserved 3,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock for issuance pursuant to the 2000 Plan. Following the adoption of the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan in July 2004, no more options will be issued under the 2000 Stock Option Plan. Grants, net of shares exercised and forfeited, under our 2000 Stock Option Plan totaled 1,299,956 shares at December 31, 2005.

In July 2004, we adopted the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan (the "2004 Plan"). Awards under the Plan, can be a combination of stock options, stock appreciation rights , restricted stock, unrestricted stock, stock units (including restricted stock units), performance awards, cash awards and other awards not described that are convertible into or otherwise based on the our stock. To date, only stock option awards have been granted under the Plan.

The 2004 Plan established an initial option pool of 2,000,000 shares plus an annual increase beginning in 2005, equal to the least of (i) 2,000,000 shares, (ii) 13.4% of the number of shares of Stock outstanding as of our immediately preceding fiscal year, or (iii) such lesser amount, if any, as the Board may determine. Our Board of Directors elected to limit the increase in the option share pool by 500,000 shares in both 2005 and 2006, bringing the shares in the pool to a total of 3,000,000.

Options under both the 2000 plan and the 2004 Plan may be granted for periods up to 10 years. Options granted under either plan may be either Incentive Stock Options ("ISO"'s) or non-qualified stock options. The exercise price of an ISO cannot be less than 100% of the estimated fair value of the common stock at the date of grant. To date, options granted to employees generally vest over four years.

The following table presents activity under the Plan:

The following table presents outstanding and exercisable stock options at December 31, 2005:

Non-Employee Options - Included in the option disclosures above are options granted to certain non-employees under our plan, as follows:

In August 2003, we issued options to purchase an aggregate of 164,000 shares of its Class A common stock to two consultants in connection with entering into certain consulting agreements. In April 2004, 61,500 of these shares were forfeited upon termination of one of the consulting agreements. The options have an exercise price of $3.65 per share and a 10-year life. In aggregate, 41,000 of the options were vested on the grant date. The remaining 61,500 shares vest one-third on each subsequent annual anniversary of the grant date and are subject to re- measurement at each balance sheet date during the vesting period. The aggregate value of the outstanding options was estimated at $415,000 at December 31, 2004 and at $299,000 at December 31, 2005. The fair value of these options, net of forfeited options was recognized as compensation expense over the two-year period of service, which ended in August 2005. Total non-cash compensation expense related to these options was $4,000 for the year ended December 31, 2005. The fair values of the options were estimated at the grant date and subsequent dates, using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions: dividend yield of 0%; expected volatility of 100%; risk-free interest rates of 4.3%, 4.62%, and 4.4%; and expected lives of 10 years, for each of the measurement dates, respectively.

Options issued at below market price - In March 2004 we granted options under the 2000 Plan to its CEO and each of our Directors to purchase an aggregate of 410,000 shares of common stock at a price below the then current market value. Our Directors were each awarded options to purchase 65,500 shares, of which 30,000 shares vested on the date of grant with 5,000 shares vesting quarterly thereafter until fully vested, have an exercise price of $2 per share and a 10-year life. Our CEO was awarded an option to purchase 150,000 shares, of which 50,000 vested September 1, 2004 and 50,000 annually thereafter until fully vested, with an exercise price of $2 per share and a 10-year life. The aggregate value of these options was estimated to be $1,230,000 and is being recognized as compensation expense over the vesting periods. We recognized $169,000 of compensation expense associated with these option grants during the year ended December 31, 2005, net of forfeited options.. As of December 31, 2005, $40,000 of deferred compensation remained to be amortized on these option grants.

In April 2004 we granted options under the 2000 Plan to its employees to purchase an aggregate of 156,650 shares of common stock at a price below the then current market value. The options have an exercise price of $2.00 per share and a 10-year life. One quarter of the options vested on July 1, 2004 with the remaining options vesting annually over the subsequent three years until fully vested. In July 2004, we issued options under the 2000 Plan to its employees to purchase an aggregate of 78,250 shares of common stock at a price below the then current market value. The options have a weighted average exercise price of $3.76 per share and a 10-year life. The aggregate value of these option grants was estimated at $801,000 and is being recognized as compensation expense over the vesting period. We recognized compensation expense associated with these option grants of $215,000, net of forfeited options, for the year ended December 31, 2005. As of December 31, 2005, $162,000 of deferred compensation remained to be amortized.

A summary of stock compensation expense for each period is as follows:

Fair Value Disclosure - The fair values of the options granted to employees were estimated on the date of each grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions used for grants in 2005, 2004 and 2003, respectively:

In July 2004 we issued warrants to its Underwriters in connection with our initial public offering to purchase a total of 600,000 shares of our common stock at a purchase price of $8.34, or 120% of the price of the shares upon completion of our IPO. The warrants are exercisable through July 28, 2009. These warrants were treated as a cost of raising capital.

Microvision holds a warrant to purchase a total of 170,546 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $8.80 per share. The warrant, which was originally issued in 2001 for 150,000 Series A Preferred shares in lieu of interest payments due on a convertible note, and was exercisable at $10.00 per share, carried anti-dilution rights which, upon completion of our IPO, triggered an automatic adjustment to the number of shares and exercise price. The warrant, all of which was outstanding at December 31, 2005, expires in March 2011 and was valued by the amount of the interest forgiven or $719,000, as this was considered to be more readily determinable than the fair value of the warrant.

Agreements with the University of Washington - In October 2000, we entered into a license agreement (the "License Agreement") and a research agreement (the "Sponsored Research Agreement" or the "SRA") with the University of Washington (the "UW"). The License Agreement grants us rights to certain intellectual property including technology being developed under the sponsored Research Agreement whereby hawse have a royalty-bearing license to make, sell or sublicense the licensed technology. Under the terms of the License Agreement, we issued 802,414 shares of our Class A common stock to the UW. The shares, although initially subject to a vesting schedule tied to performance under the Sponsored Research Agreement, were vested in full by mutual agreement between the UW and Lumera on January 8, 2001. The shares issued were valued by management at $3,009,000, based on a value of $3.75 per share on the date of issuance. We considered a number of factors, including an independent valuation, projected cash flows from our technology and expected future products, general market conditions and the risks inherent in achieving our business plan in determining the fair value of the common shares issued. The value of the shares issued was recorded as prepaid stock-based research expense and was fully amortized to expense as of March 31, 2004.

Under the terms of the License Agreement, we are also required to pay certain costs related to filing and processing of patents and copyrights related to the agreements. Additionally, we are required to pay certain ongoing royalty payments at a minimum of $75,000 per annum. We have not made any royalty payments to date in excess of these minimums. These payments have been expensed as incurred.

As part of the Sponsored Research Agreement, we agreed to pay an aggregate of $9,000,000 in quarterly payments over three years for research services. The first payment was made on February 26, 2001. We expensed the total expected payments on a straight-line basis because there was no more readily determinable pattern of the performance of the research services under the agreement.

In February 2002, Lumera and the UW amended the Sponsored Research Agreement to extend quarterly payments and performance through 2005. In March 2003, we entered into a second amendment to the SRA, which deferred certain 2003 payments until 2004. In November 2003, we entered into a third amendment to the SRA. Under the terms of the third amendment, our payment obligation to the UW was reduced to $125,000 per quarter from October 1, 2003 to September 30, 2004, and $300,000 for the quarter ending December 31, 2004. The amendment required us to make its unpaid payments of $2,000,000 by May 2005. In April 2004, we entered into a fourth amendment to the SRA that required payments of $125,000 for the quarters ending March 31, 2004 and September 30, 2004 and eliminated a contingent payment of $2,000,000 that had been due in April 2004. For each of the quarters ending September 30, 2004 and December 31, 2004, we were required to pay $250,000. Total payments under the Amended Sponsored Research Agreement, which terminated in June 2005, were $5,750,000 instead of the $9,000,000 under the terms of the original agreement.

Subsequent to each amendment noted above, we prospectively adjusted the amortization of the research payments to account for the extended period over which the payments would be made and services provided. As a result of these adjustments, we had cumulatively recognized expenses in excess of payments made of $1,948,000 at December 31, 2003. As a result of the fourth amendment and the elimination of the contingent $2 million payment in 2005, we recognized a credit to research and development expense of $2.4 million in 2004.

The following table summarizes payments made and expense recorded during the year ending December 31:

Helix Biopharma/Sensium - We have a licensing agreement with Sensium Technologies, Inc., a subsidiary of Helix BioPharma, which gives us an exclusive worldwide royalty bearing license in our field of business to a number of patents and the related technology for use in our NanoCapture™ Arrays. Under the terms of the agreement, we paid $250,000 in license fees, half of which we paid upon signing in January 2005 and half in February 2006. We also paid a $125,000 in technology transfer fees during the first half of 2005. The Sensium licensing agreement contains minimum royalty provisions totaling $50,000 for the first year, $100,000 for the second year, $150,000 for the third year and $200,000 thereafter. Our license exclusivity is based upon achieving certain minimum revenues by the fourth royalty year.

Lease Commitments - We sublease our corporate facilities from Microvision at a base rate of approximately $25,000 per month, plus common area charges; the sublease is effective through April 6, 2006. We signed a five year lease to expand our current facilities which begins April 7, 2006. Once we complete our tenant improvements, which we believe will require cash expenditures in the range of $900,000 to $1.2 million, our facilities will occupy approximately 32,175 square feet of space located in the same building we currently occupy. The total of the minimum rental payments over the life of the initial lease term is approximately $2.5 million. We have an option to extend our new lease for one additional 5 year period. We had no other significant operating or capital leases at December 31, 2005.

Claims and Litigation - In our opinion, litigation, contingent liabilities and claims against us in the normal course of business are not expected to involve any judgments or settlements that would be material to our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

On August 31, 2004, we established its retirement savings plan (the "Plan"), which qualifies under the Internal Revenue Code Section 401(k) and covers all qualified employees. The Plan allows us to match 50% of an employee's contribution to the Plan up to a maximum 6% of the employee's base salary. During 2005 we contributed $57,000 to the Plan under the matching program.

The following table represents certain unaudited quarterly financial information for the four quarters ended December 31, 2005. In our opinion, this information has been prepared on the same basis as the audited financial statements and includes all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to fairly state the unaudited quarterly results of operations set forth herein.

Quarterly and annual earnings per share are calculated independently, based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the periods.
