NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

Note 1

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Integrated Device Technology, Inc. (“IDT” or “the Company”) contain all adjustments (which include only normal, recurring adjustments) that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to state fairly the interim financial information included therein. Certain prior period balances have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. The year-end condensed balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the Company’s financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. All references are to the Company’s fiscal quarters ended October 1, 2006 (Q2 2007), July 2, 2006 (Q1 2007), October 2, 2005 (Q2 2006) and April 2, 2006 (Q4 2006) unless otherwise indicated.

These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 2, 2006. Operating results for the three and six months ended October 1, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of operating results for an entire fiscal year.

On July 31, 2006, the Company completed the acquisition of the PC Audio business of SigmaTel, Inc (“SigmaTel”). The acquisition provides the Company with a team of engineers, certain assets and a product portfolio involving PC audio technologies. The Company believes these technologies will allow it to pursue expanded opportunities, particularly in the emerging high-definition PC audio market. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, Business Combinations (SFAS 141), the Company has included in its results of operations for the three months ended October 1, 2006, the results of the PC Audio business from the date the transaction closed.

Note 2

Significant Accounting Policies

Revenue Recognition. The Company’s revenue relates to semiconductors sold through three channels: direct sales to original equipment manufacturers (“OEM’s”) and electronic manufacturing service providers (“EMS’s”), consignment sales to OEM’s and EMS’s, and sales through distributors. The Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, the price is fixed or determinable, and its ability to collect is reasonably assured. For direct sales, we recognize revenue in accordance with the applicable shipping terms. Revenue related to the sale of consignment inventory is not recognized until the product is pulled from inventory stock by the customer. For distributors who have stock rotation, price protection and ship from stock pricing adjustment rights, the Company defers revenue and related cost of revenues on sales to these distributors until the product is sold through by the distributor to an end-customer. For distributors who only have limited stock rotation rights, revenue is recognized upon shipment, with reserves recorded for the estimated return exposure in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 48, Revenue Recognition when Right of Return Exists (SFAS 48). Revenues related to licensing agreements are recognized on a straight-line basis over the period from when the licensee is first contractually permitted to use the related patents or other technology until the first to occur of either the expiration of the contract or the underlying patents. As of October 1, 2006, the Company recognizes revenue on a sell-through basis for North American and European distributors and recognizes revenue on a sell-in basis for Asian and Japanese distributors.

Stock-based Compensation: The Company estimates the fair value of stock options using the Black-Scholes valuation model, consistent with the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (FASB) SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment (SFAS 123R). Option-pricing models require the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the expected term of options, the determination of risk-free interest rates, and the expected price volatility of the stock underlying such options. In addition, the Company is required to estimate the number of share-based awards that will be forfeited due to employee turnover based on historical trends. Finally, the Company capitalizes into inventory a portion of the periodic stock-based compensation expense that relates to employees working in manufacturing activities.

The Company completed an analysis of its stock option exercise behavior over the ten years prior to its adoption of SFAS 123R and determined that a five-year expected term is more reflective of the Company’s historical experience, giving consideration to the contractual terms of the awards and vesting schedules. The interest rate is based on the average U.S. Treasury interest rate in effect during the applicable quarter. The Company believes that the implied volatility of its common stock is an important consideration of current market conditions and a good indicator of the expected volatility of its common stock. However, due to

 


the limited volume of options freely traded over the counter, the Company believes that, by itself, it is not representative of the expected volatility of its common stock. Therefore, the Company revised the volatility factor used to estimate the fair value of its stock-based awards upon the adoption of SFAS 123R to be based upon a blend of historical volatility of its common stock and implied volatility of call options and dealer quotes on call options. The Company has not paid, nor does it anticipate paying dividends on its common stock.

Note 3

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In July 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (FIN 48). FIN 48 prescribes a comprehensive model for how a company should recognize, measure, present, and disclose in its financial statements uncertain tax positions that the Company has taken or expects to take on a tax return (including a decision whether to file or not to file a return in a particular jurisdiction). FIN 48 is applicable to all uncertain tax positions for taxes accounted for under FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes (SFAS 109) and substantially changes the applicable accounting model. FIN 48 is likely to cause greater volatility in income statements as more items are recognized discretely within income tax expense. FIN 48 is effective beginning with the Company’s first quarter of fiscal year 2008. The Company is currently assessing the impact of FIN 48.

On September 13, 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108, Considering the effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements (SAB 108), which provides interpretive guidance on how the effects of the carryover or reversal of prior year misstatements should be considered in quantifying a current year misstatement. The guidance is applicable for the Company’s fiscal 2007. The Company is not yet in a position to determine what, if any, effects SAB 108 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

Net loss per share for the three and six-month periods ended October 1, 2006 and October 2, 2005 is based only on weighted average shares outstanding. Stock options based equivalent shares of 5.0 million and 4.3 million for the three and six month periods ended October 1, 2006, respectively, and 0.6 million and 1.0 million for the three and six month periods ended October 2, 2005, respectively, were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share as their effect would be antidilutive in a net loss period. Employee stock options to purchase 8.4 million shares and 8.2 million shares for the three and six month periods ended October 1, 2006, respectively, and 13.4 million shares and 9.8 million shares for the three and six month periods ended October 2, 2005, respectively, were outstanding, but were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because the exercise price of the stock options was greater than the average share price of the common shares and therefore, the effect would be antidilutive.

Note 5

Stock-Based Employee Compensation

Compensation Expense

Effective April 3, 2006, the Company adopted the provisions of SFAS 123R, which requires the Company to measure and recognize compensation expense for all share-based payment awards, including employee stock options and rights to purchase shares under employee stock purchase plans, based on their estimated fair value and recognize the costs in the financial statements over the employees’ requisite service period. As permitted by SFAS 123R, the Company elected to use the modified prospective transition method and has not restated its financial results for prior periods. Under this transition method, stock-based compensation expense for fiscal 2007 includes compensation expense for all stock-based awards granted prior to, but not yet vested as of April 2, 2006, based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123. Stock-based compensation expense for awards granted after April 2, 2006 was based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123R.


The following table summarizes stock-based compensation expense by line items appearing in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations and the impact on earnings per share:

As stock-based compensation expense recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations is based on awards ultimately expected to vest, it has been reduced for estimated forfeitures in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123R. SFAS 123R requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. The Company attributes the value of stock-based compensation to expense on an accelerated method.

Valuation Assumptions

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model (“Black-Scholes”) as its method of valuation for share-based awards granted beginning in fiscal 2007, the same model used for the Company’s pro forma information required under SFAS 123 in prior periods. The Company’s determination of fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model is affected by the Company’s stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of subjective variables. These variables include, but are not limited to, the Company’s expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards as well as the option’s expected term.


Assumptions used in the Black-Scholes valuation model were as follows:

Equity Incentive Programs

The Company currently issues awards under three equity based plans in order to provide additional incentive and retention to directors and employees who are considered to be essential in the long-range success of the Company. The plans are further described below.

1994 Stock Option Plan (1994 Plan)

In May 1994, the Company’s shareholders approved the 1994 Plan. Under the 1994 Plan, 13,500,000 shares of common stock were made available for issuance as stock options to employees, officers, directors, consultants, independent contractors and advisors of the Company and its affiliates. Shares issuable upon exercise of stock options granted pursuant to the Company’s 1985 Incentive and Nonqualified Stock Option Plan that expire or become unexercisable for any reason without having been exercised in full is also available for distribution under the 1994 Plan (not to exceed 10,000,000 shares). Options granted by the Company under the 1994 Plan generally expire seven years from the date of grant and generally vest over a four-year period from the date of grant. The exercise price of the options granted by the Company under the 1994 Plan shall not be less than 100% of the fair market value for a common share subject to such option on the date the option is granted. As of October 1, 2006, 1,041 shares remain available for future grant under the 1994 Plan.

1997 Employee Stock Option Plan (1997 Plan)

In October 1997, the 1997 Plan was adopted. Under the 1997 Plan, 23,500,000 shares of common stock were made available for issuance as nonqualified stock options to employees, consultants, independent contractors and advisors of the Company and its affiliates; provided that such persons are not officers or directors of the Company. Options granted by the Company under the 1997 Plan generally expire seven years from the date of grant and generally vest over a four-year period from the date of grant. The exercise price of the options granted by the Company under the 1997 Plan shall not be less than 100% of the fair market value for a common share subject to such option on the date the option is granted. As of October 1, 2006, 1,604,067 shares remain available for future grant under the 1997 Plan.

2004 Equity Plan (2004 Plan)

In September 2004, the Company’s shareholders approved the 2004 Plan. Under the 2004 Plan, 24,500,000 shares of common stock were made available for issuance as stock options, restricted stock awards, stock appreciation rights, performance awards, restricted stock unit awards, and stock-based awards to employees, directors and consultants, of which a maximum of 2,000,000 shares are eligible for non-option “full value” awards. The 2004 Plan allows for time-based and performance-based vesting for the awards. Options granted by the Company under the 2004 Plan generally expire seven years from the date of grant and generally vest over a four-year period from the date of grant, with one-quarter of the shares of common stock vesting on the one-year anniversary of the grant date and the remaining shares vesting monthly for the 36 months thereafter. The exercise price of the options granted by the Company under the 2004 Plan shall not be less than 100% of the fair market value for a common share subject to such option on the date the option is granted. Full value awards made under the 2004 Plan shall become vested over a period of not less than three years (or, if vesting is performance-based, over a period of not less than one year) following the date


such award is made; provided, however, that full value awards that result in the issuance of an aggregate of up to 5% of common stock available under the 2004 Plan may be granted to any one or more participants without respect to such minimum vesting provisions. As of October 1, 2006, 2,939,765 shares remain available for future grant under the 2004 Plan.

Restricted Stock units available for grant by the Company under the 2004 Plan generally vest over a 36-month period from the grant date. Prior to vesting, participants holding restricted stock units do not have shareholder rights. Shares are issued on or as soon as administratively practicable following the vesting date of the restricted stock units and upon issuance, recordation and delivery, the participant will have all the rights of a shareholder of the Company with respect to voting such stock and receipt of dividends and distributions on such stock. As of October 1, 2006, 68,236 restricted stock unit awards were granted under the 2004 Plan.

1984 ESPP

In July 1984, the Company’s shareholders approved the 1984 ESPP under which eligible employees may purchase shares of the Company’s common stock through payroll deductions (not to exceed 15% of such employee’s compensation) at no lower than 85% of the fair market value of the common stock on the first day or the last day of each fiscal quarter, whichever is lower. Under the 1984 ESPP, 13,100,000 shares of common stock were made available for issuance. The 1984 ESPP is implemented by successive quarterly purchase periods commencing on the first day of each fiscal quarter of the Company. In order to maintain its qualified status under section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code, the 1984 ESPP imposes certain restrictions, including the limitation that no employee is permitted to participate in the 1984 ESPP if the rights of such employee to purchase common stock of the Company under the 1984 ESPP and all similar purchase plans of the Company or its subsidiaries would accrue at a rate which exceeds $25,000 of the fair market value of such stock (determined at the time the right is granted) for each calendar year. During the six months ended October 1, 2006, the Company issued 424,596 shares of common stock with a weighted-average price of $12.05 per share and a weighted-average grant-date fair market value of 3.21 per share.

Prior to the adoption of SFAS 123R

Prior to the adoption of SFAS 123R, the Company accounted for its stock option plans and employee stock purchase plan in accordance with the intrinsic value method prescribed in the Accounting Principles Board No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees (APB 25), and presented pro-forma disclosures of the effects of stock-based compensation in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123 and SFAS 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, Transition and Disclosure.

The interest rate was based on the average U.S. Treasury interest rate in effect during the quarter.

 


Note 6

Cash Equivalents and Investments

Cash equivalents are highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase. All of the Company's investments are classified as available-for-sale at October 1, 2006 and April 2, 2006. Available-for-sale investments are classified as short-term, as these investments generally consist of highly marketable securities that are intended to be available to meet near-term cash requirements. Investment securities classified as available-for-sale are reported at market value, and net unrealized gains or losses are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income, a separate component of stockholders' equity, until realized. Realized gains and losses on investments are computed based upon specific identification and are included in interest income and other, net. Management evaluates investments on a regular basis to determine if an other-than-temporary impairment has occurred.

The Company maintains a portfolio of marketable equity securities held to generate returns that seek to offset changes in liabilities related to the equity market risk of certain deferred compensation arrangements. The securities within this portfolio are classified as trading and are stated at fair value. Portfolio assets and deferred compensation liabilities are included in other assets and long-term obligations, respectively, on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Increases or decreases related to the Company’s participant obligations are recorded in operating expenses, while gains or losses on the Company’s portfolio are recorded in other income and expenses.

During Q1 2006, the Company recorded an other-than-temporary loss of $1.7 million on certain available-for-sale investments, the fair value of which had gradually decreased over the prior twelve months as a result of interest rate increases. This action was based upon the magnitude and length of time these securities had been in a continuous unrealized loss position and in consideration of the Company’s near-term cash requirements in anticipation of the merger with Integrated Circuit Systems, Inc. (ICS), which as completed in September 2005. In connection with the consummation of the ICS merger, a significant portion of the Company’s investments were sold, resulting in a realized loss in Q2 2006, of an additional $0.9 million for a total loss of $2.6 million, including the other-than-temporary loss recorded in Q1 2006.

Note 7

Investment in Non-Marketable Equity Securities

In conjunction with the merger with ICS, the Company acquired an Investment and Stock Trade Agreement with Maxtek Technology Co. Ltd (“Maxtek”), an international stocking representative in Taiwan and China and an IDT customer. ICS initially invested $4.0 million and owned approximately 10% of Maxtek but had subsequently sold 75% of its initial investment prior to its merger with IDT. As of October 1, 2006, the aggregate carrying amount of the Company’s investment in Maxtek was approximately $1.0 million, or 2.0% of the outstanding shares of Maxtek.

Also in conjunction with the merger with ICS, the Company acquired an investment in Best Elite International Limited (“Best Elite”), which owns a wafer fabrication facility in Suzhou, China. The Company purchases wafers from Best Elite’s wafer fabrication facility for certain legacy ICS products. As of October 1, 2006 the aggregate carrying amount of the Company’s investment in Best Elite was approximately $5.0 million, or 1% of the outstanding shares of Best Elite.

Business Combinations

Acquisition of SigmaTel’s PC Audio business

On July 31, 2006, the Company completed its acquisition of the PC Audio business of SigmaTel. The total purchase price was approximately $73.2 million, including approximately $1.2 million of merger-related transaction costs. A summary of the total purchase price is as follows:

In accordance with SFAS 141, Business Combinations, the Company has preliminarily allocated the purchase price to the estimated tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including in-process research and development, based on their estimated fair values. The excess purchase price over those fair values is recorded as goodwill. The acquisition provides the Company with a team of engineers, certain assets and a product portfolio involving PC audio technologies. The Company believes these technologies will allow it to pursue expanded opportunities, particularly in the emerging high-definition PC audio market. These opportunities, along with the ability to sell PC Audio products to the existing base of IDT customers, were significant contributing factors to the establishment of the purchase price. The fair values assigned to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based on management estimates and assumptions, including third-party valuations that utilize established valuation techniques appropriate for the high-technology industry. Goodwill is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes. In accordance with SFAS 142, Goodwill and Intangible Assets, goodwill is not amortized but will be reviewed at least annually for impairment. Purchased intangibles with finite lives are being amortized over their respective estimated useful lives on a straight line basis. The purchase price has been preliminarily allocated as follows:

Useful lives are primarily based on the underlying assumptions used in the discounted cash flow (DCF) models. The allocation is preliminary and subject to change if the Company obtains additional information concerning the fair values of any of the assets and liabilities acquired.

Net Tangible Assets

Assets and liabilities were reviewed and adjusted, if required, to their estimated fair value. The Company adjusted the value of acquired inventories by approximately $1.6 million to write up the inventory to estimated fair value, less an estimated selling cost. Fixed assets were not adjusted as the carrying value of the equipment was deemed to approximate fair value.

Amortizable Intangible Assets

Existing technology consists of products that have reached technological feasibility. The Company valued the existing technology utilizing a DCF model, which used forecasts of future revenues and expenses related to the intangible asset. The Company utilized discount factors of 16% for existing technology and is amortizing the intangible asset on a straight-line basis over 4 years.


The value of the customer relationships intangible asset was estimated using a DCF model, which estimates the effect on cash flows if such relationships were not in place at the close of the merger. The Company utilized a discount factor of 17% and is amortizing this intangible asset on a straight-line basis over 7 years.

The non-compete agreements were valued from the Company’s perspective by estimating the affect on future revenues and cash flows if a given non-compete agreement was not in place, therby allowing former employees to re-enter the market. The Company utilized a discount factor of 18% and is amortizing this intangible asset on a straight-line basis over 2 years.

The SigmaTel tradename was valued using the relief from royalty method, which represents the benefit of owning this intangible asset rather than paying royalties for its use. The Company utilized a discount factor of 17% and is amortizing this intangible asset on a straight-line basis over 3 years.

Backlog represents the value of standing orders for SigmaTel’s PC audio products as of the close of the acquisition. Backlog was valued using a DCF. The Company utilized a discount factor of 12% and is amortizing this intangible asset on a straight-line basis over 0.25 years.

Merger with ICS

On September 16, 2005, the Company completed its merger with ICS, pursuant to which it acquired 100% of the voting common stock of ICS. The merger resulted in the issuance of (i) approximately 91.4 million shares of the Company’s common stock with a fair value of $1.1 billion, (ii) approximately 8.6 million stock options with a fair value of $47.5 million and (iii) the payment of $521.7 million in cash, including $11.9 million of merger-related transaction costs. The total purchase price was $1.7 billion. The common stock issued in the merger was valued at $12.17 per share using the average closing price of the Company’s common stock for the five-day trading period beginning two days before and ending two days after the date the transaction was announced, which was June 15, 2005. The stock options were valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following inputs: volatility factor of 62%, expected life of 2.8 years, risk-free interest rate of 4.0%, and a market value for IDT stock of $12.17 per share, which was determined as described above. The cash consideration was equivalent to $7.25 per share multiplied by approximately 70.3 million outstanding shares of ICS common stock on the date of acquisition. A summary of the total purchase price is as follows:

 

(in millions)

In accordance with SFAS 141, Business Combinations, the Company has allocated the purchase price to the estimated tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including in-process research and development, based on their estimated fair values. The excess purchase price over those fair values is recorded as goodwill. ICS’ technology provides a greater diversity of products and enhanced research and development capability, which allows IDT to pursue expanded market opportunities. In addition, there is significant potential for improved manufacturing performance. These opportunities, along with the ability to leverage the ICS workforce, were significant contributing factors to the establishment of the purchase price, resulting in the recognition of a significant amount of goodwill. The fair values assigned to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based on management estimates and assumptions, and other information compiled by management, including third-party valuations that utilize established valuation techniques appropriate for the high-technology industry. Goodwill recorded as a result of this merger is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes. In accordance with SFAS 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, goodwill is not amortized but will be reviewed at least annually for impairment. Purchased intangibles with finite lives are being amortized over their respective estimated useful lives, which in some cases involves the use of either an accelerated method or a straight line basis. The purchase price has been allocated as follows:

Goodwill Adjustment

During the three and six months ended October 1, 2006, the Company adjusted goodwill associated with our merger with ICS by $1.3 million and $1.6 million, respectively. Each adjustment was attributable to pre-acquisition contingencies identified in these periods.

Net Tangible Assets

ICS’ assets and liabilities as of September 16, 2005 were reviewed and adjusted, if required, to their estimated fair value. The Company adjusted ICS’ fixed assets by approximately $6.3 million to write up ICS’ historical net book value to estimated fair value as of the date of the close net of capitalized assets which did not meet IDT’s asset capitalization criteria. The Company also accrued for restructuring charges of $3.2 million, related to estimated severance charges and facility closure costs related to facilities leased by ICS. The Company recognized these costs in accordance with the Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 95-3, Recognition of Liabilities in Connection with Purchase Business Combinations. Approximately 45 former ICS employees were terminated in conjunction with the acquisition. The payment of all severance and retention amounts was completed in Q1 2007.

Included in net tangible assets acquired above are $98.1 million of incremental deferred tax liabilities and $5.5 million of deferred tax assets to reflect the tax effects of temporary differences between book and tax basis for purchase accounting related items. In determining the tax effect of these basis differences, the Company has taken into account the allocation of these identified intangibles among different tax jurisdictions, including those with zero percent tax rates. In addition, we reversed $58.1 million of valuation allowance related to IDT’s pre-merger net deferred tax assets as a result of deferred tax liabilities recorded as part of the purchase accounting.

Amortizable Intangible Assets

Existing technology consists of products that have reached technological feasibility. The Company valued the existing technology utilizing a DCF model, which uses forecasts of future revenues and expenses related to the intangible asset. The Company utilized discount factors of 12 - 20% for existing technology and is amortizing this intangible asset over 3 – 10 years on a straight-line basis.

Customer, Distributor, Foundry and Assembler relationship values have been estimated using the lost income method, which estimates the effect on cash flows if these relationships were not in place at the close of the merger. The Company utilized a discount factor of 16% for each of these intangible assets and is amortizing these intangible assets on an accelerated basis consistent with the lost revenue amounts assumed in the valuation model.

The non-compete agreements were valued from the Company’s perspective by estimating the affect on future revenues and cash flows if a non-compete were not in-place, thereby allowing former employees of ICS to re-enter the market. The Company utilized a discount factor of 16% for non-compete agreements and is amortizing this intangible asset on a straight-line basis over the 2 year term of the agreements.

The ICS trade name was valued using the relief from royalty method, which represents the benefit of owning this intangible asset rather than paying royalties for its use. The Company utilized discount rates of 14% - 25% for the ICS trade name and is amortizing this intangible asset over 2 - 10 years on a straight-line basis.


Backlog represents the value of the standing orders for ICS’ products as of the close of the merger. Backlog was valued using a DCF model and a discount rate of 10%. The value was amortized over a six month period.

Above Market Lease Liability

In connection with the valuation of the merger with ICS, the Company identified two operating leases at ICS facilities with rental payments that were deemed to be in excess of current market rental rates for facilities of similar sizes, similar purpose, and in similar locations. The Company estimated the amount to be approximately $2.0 million, which it is amortizing over the remaining life of each of the lease obligations, respectively.

In-process Research and Development

Of the total purchase price, $2.3 million was allocated to IPR&D. Projects that qualify as IPR&D represent those that have not yet reached technological feasibility and which have no alternative future use. Technological feasibility is established when an enterprise has completed all planning, designing, coding, and testing activities that are necessary to establish that a product can be produced to meet its design specifications including functions, features, and technical performance requirement. The value of IPR&D was determined by considering the importance of each project to the Company’s overall development plan, estimating costs to develop the purchased IPR&D into commercially viable products, estimating the resulting net cash flows from the projects when completed and discounting the net cash flows to their present value based on the percentage of completion of the IPR&D projects. The Company utilized the DCF method to value the IPR&D, using rates ranging from 17% to 30%, depending on the estimated useful life of the technology. Based on the relatively few projects underway at the close of the acquisition and the significant leverage on existing technology of in-process projects, IPR&D was not a significant component of the acquired business. Each of these individually immaterial projects was completed in fiscal 2006.

Asset Acquisitions

Freescale Assets

Prior to the close of the Company’s merger with ICS, ICS entered into a $10.0 million, 10-year cross-licensing agreement with Freescale and concurrently acquired an option to purchase the Freescale Assets under a master purchase agreement. In addition, ICS had recorded approximately $0.1 million in acquisition costs related to this transaction. On September 23, 2005, the Company exercised the option to purchase the Freescale Assets for approximately $35.8 million in cash, for total consideration paid for the Freescale Assets of approximately $45.9 million. The transaction included certain assets and personnel but did not constitute a business combination within the criteria of EITF 98-3, Determining whether a Non-Monetary Transaction involves Receipt of Productive Assets or of a Business.

Amortizable Intangible Assets

Existing technology consists of products that have reached technological feasibility. The Company valued the existing technology utilizing a DCF model, which uses forecasts of future revenues and expenses related to the intangible asset. The Company utilized discount factors of 15% for existing technology and is amortizing this intangible asset over 2-7 years on a straight-line basis.

Customer and Foundry relationship values have been estimated using the lost income method, which estimates the effect on cash flows if these relationships were not in place at the close of the transaction. The Company utilized a discount factor of 17% for these intangible assets and is amortizing the intangible assets on an accelerated basis consistent with the lost revenue amounts assumed in the valuation model.

Other identified intangibles consist of tradename, non-compete agreements, backlog, workforce, and various agreements. The Company valued these intangibles using various valuation techniques typically used in the high-tech industry. The Company utilized discount factors of 10-17% and is amortizing these intangible assets over 0.25 – 5 years.

Note 11

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Goodwill is reviewed annually for impairment in our fourth fiscal quarter (or more frequently if indicators of impairment arise). In conjunction with the merger with ICS, the Company reorganized its operating segments and developed a new reporting structure comprised of three reportable segments: (i) Networking, (ii) Timing, and (iii) Standard Products and Other. Goodwill resulting from the merger with ICS was assigned to the Timing segment. Goodwill associated with the acquisitions of Solidum and Zettacom was assigned to the Networking segment. Goodwill associated with our acquisition of Newave and SigmaTel’s PC audio business was assigned to the Standard Products and Other segment.

Note 13

Derivative Financial Instruments

As a result of its international operations, sales and purchase transactions, the Company is subject to risks associated with fluctuating currency exchange rates. The Company may use derivative financial instruments from time to time to hedge these risks when instruments are available and cost effective in an attempt to minimize the impact of currency exchange rate movements on its operating results and on the cost of capital equipment purchases. During the quarter, the Company utilized forward currency contracts to settle short term foreign currency denominated payables of which such gains and losses were recorded through earnings. As of the end of the quarter, the Company did not have any outstanding foreign currency contracts that were designated as hedges of forecasted cashflows or capital equipment purchases. The Company does not enter into derivative financial instruments for speculative or trading purposes.

An immaterial amount of net gains and losses were included in earnings during the first six months of fiscal 2007 and 2006.

Besides foreign exchange rate exposure, the Company’s cash and investment portfolios are subject to risks associated with fluctuations in interest rates. While the Company's policies allow for the use of derivative financial instruments to hedge the fair values of such investments, the Company has yet to enter into this type of hedge.

Note 14

Industry Segments

In conjunction with the ICS merger, the Company reorganized its operating segments and developed a new reporting structure comprised of three reportable segments: (i) Networking; (ii) Timing; and (iii) Standard Products and Other. The Networking segment includes network search engines, switching solutions, integrated communications processors, flow-control management devices, FIFOs, and multi-port products. The Timing segment includes clock management, DIMM support, AMB and other timing solution products. The Standard Products and Other segment include high-speed SRAM, military applications, PC audio, digital logic products, telecommunications and video products.

Prior period balances have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. The tables below provide information about these segments for the three month periods ended October 1, 2006 and October 2, 2005:

The Company does not allocate restructuring, acquisition-related costs, stock-based compensation, interest income and other, and interest expense to its segments. In addition, the Company does not allocate assets to its segments. The Company excludes these items consistent with the manner in which it internally evaluates its results of operations.

Note 15

Guarantees

The Company indemnifies certain customers, distributors, and subcontractors for attorney fees and damages awarded against these parties in certain circumstances in which the Company’s products are alleged to infringe third party intellectual property rights, including patents, registered trademarks, or copyrights. The terms of the Company’s indemnification obligations are generally perpetual from the effective date of the agreement. In certain cases, there are limits on and exceptions to the Company’s potential liability for indemnification relating to intellectual property infringement claims. The Company cannot estimate the amount of potential future payments, if any, that we might be required to make as a result of these agreements. The Company has not paid any claim or been required to defend any claim related to our indemnification obligations, and accordingly, the Company has not accrued any amounts for our indemnification obligations. However, there can be no assurances that the Company will not have any future financial exposure under these indemnification obligations.

The Company maintains a reserve for obligations it incurs under its standard product warranty program and customer, part, or process specific matters. The Company’s standard warranty period is one year, however in certain instances the warranty period may be extended to as long as two years. Management estimates the fair value of the Company’s warranty liability based on actual past warranty claims experience, its policies regarding customer warranty returns and other estimates about the timing and disposition of product returned under the standard program. Customer, part, or process specific reserves are estimated using a specific identification method. Historical warranty returns activity has been minimal. The total reserve was $0.2 million and $0.3 million as of October 1, 2006 and April 2, 2006, respectively.

Restructuring Actions

As part of an effort to streamline operations and increase profitability, the Company has implemented reductions-in-force (RIF) that have impacted many of its operations, including its northern California, Oregon and Penang, Malaysia workforce, its assembly and test facility in the Philippines and its design center in Australia.

In Q2 2007, the Company initiated a RIF, which affected its assembly workforce in Penang. This action coincides with the Company’s decision to outsource its assembly operations to a third party and to transition these operations over the next year. This action will result in the reduction of approximately 300 employees. The Company recorded $0.7 million in Q2 2007, which is equivalent to the portion guaranteed to each affected employee under Malaysian labor law, in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 112, Employers’ Accounting for Postemployment Benefits (SFAS 112). The Company will recognize the remaining severance and benefits owed to the affected employees over the transition period.

In Q4 2006, the Company initiated a RIF, primarily affecting its manufacturing workforce in Oregon. This action resulted in the reduction of approximately 35 employees. The Company recorded $0.8 million in Q4 2006, which was equivalent to the portion guaranteed each affected employee pursuant to Company policy, in accordance with SFAS 112. In Q1 2007, the Company recorded an additional $0.5 million, which represented the remaining severance and benefits owed to the affected employees. During Q2 2007, the Company paid the remaining $0.2 million related to this RIF.

During Q2 2006, the Company completed the consolidation of its Northern California workforce to its San Jose headquarters and exited leased facilities in Salinas and Santa Clara. Upon exiting the buildings the Company recorded lease impairment charges of approximately $6.5 million, which represented the future rental payments under the agreements, reduced by an estimate of sublease income, discounted to present value using an interest rate applicable to the Company. The Company also wrote-off certain leasehold improvements and assets no longer in use of approximately $0.6 million. Through Q2 2007, approximately $2.4 million of these lease payments have been made.

Restructuring in Connection with the ICS Merger

In Q3 2006, the Company announced its plan to close its design center in Sydney, Australia, due to overlapping projects and teams acquired in conjunction with the merger with ICS. The closure resulted in a RIF of approximately 15 employees. In Q3 2006, we recorded approximately $0.7 million of severance costs related to these employees. In Q1 2007, upon the exit of the leased facility, the Company paid a termination fee of approximately $0.3 million and wrote-off approximately $0.2 million of leasehold improvements. The Company completed this restructuring activity during Q1 2007.

Note 17

Assets Held for Sale

In Q1 2006, the Company announced its plans to consolidate its assembly and test operations and outsource a portion of its


assembly operations. Under the plan, the Company closed its assembly and test facility in Manila, the Philippines, which resulted in a reduction in force of approximately 750 employees. The Company also transferred the test and finish work performed at its Manila facility to the Company’s assembly and test facility in Penang, Malaysia, and transferred the assembly work and certain assembly equipment to third party sub-contractors.

In Q3 2006, the Company began actively marketing its Manila facility, the surrounding land and remaining assets (Manila disposal group) and expects to complete the sale within the next twelve months. In Q3 2006, the Company determined that the plan of sale criteria in SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, had been met.

In Q2 2007, the fair value of the Manila disposal group was reassessed by management, using input provided by a third party valuation expert, and it was determined that the current carrying value of approximately $7.1 million exceeded the market value. As a result, the Company recorded an impairment charge of approximately $2.5 million to reduce the carrying value of the Manila disposal group to its estimated market value, less selling costs, and began marketing the facility at the reduced price. The Company will continue to reassess the realizability of the carrying value of the Manila disposal group at the end of each quarter until the assets are sold or otherwise disposed of and additional adjustments may be necessary.

The disposal group, having a net book value of approximately $4.6 million, continues to be classified as held for sale and included as a component of prepayments and other current assets as of October 1, 2006. Assets classified as held-for-sale are not depreciated. Given the current market conditions for the sale of older fabrication facilities and related equipment may fluctuate, there can be no assurance that the Company will realize the current net carrying value of the assets held for sale.

Note 19

Income Taxes

The Company recorded an income tax provision of approximately $0.8 million in Q2 2007 as compared to a provision of approximately $2.1 million in Q2 2006. The provision for income taxes in Q2 2007 primarily reflects estimated foreign income and withholding taxes and estimated U.S. state taxes. The provision for income taxes in Q2 2006 primarily reflects estimated foreign income and withholding taxes, estimated U.S. federal alternative minimum taxes and U.S. state taxes. The Q2 2006 provision also includes U.S. tax of $1.3 million as a result of a $25.1 million distribution under the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 (“AJCA”). The AJCA introduced a limited 85% dividends received deduction on the repatriation of certain foreign earnings to a U.S. taxpayer, provided certain criteria are met. The Company will invest these earnings pursuant to an approved Domestic Reinvestment Plan that conforms to the AJCA guidelines. The earnings were remitted from foreign earnings for which U.S. residual tax had not been provided for in the past.

The Company recorded an income tax provision of $2.3 million for the six months ended Q2 2007 as compared to an income tax benefit of $6.2 million for the six months ended Q2 2006. The provision for income taxes in the six months ended Q2 2007 primarily reflects estimated foreign income and withholding taxes and estimated U.S. state taxes. The income tax benefit for the six months ended Q2 2006 primarily reflects estimated foreign income and withholding taxes, estimated U.S. federal alternative minimum taxes and U.S. state taxes, offset by the benefit of a reversal of a reserve related to IRS audit.

As of October 1, 2006, the Company continued to maintain a full valuation allowance against its net U.S. deferred tax assets as it could not conclude that it is more likely than not that it will be able to realize its U.S. deferred tax assets in the foreseeable future. As a result of significant deferred tax liabilities recorded in connection with the ICS acquisition in Q2 2006, the Company decreased its valuation allowance by approximately $63.5 million in that period, for which the offset was recorded to goodwill.

In Q1 2006, as a result of a partial settlement with the IRS pertaining to its examination of certain items in its income tax returns for fiscal years 2000 through 2002, the Company recorded a net reduction in its income taxes payable of $8.9 million as a partial settlement. The examination by the IRS of the Company’s income tax returns for fiscal years 2003 and 2004 has not yet been finally determined.

Note 20

Subsequent Event

On October 20, 2006, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a $50 million expansion of the share repurchase program authorized by the Company’s Board of Directors in May 2006, for a total of $100 million. During the three and six months ending October 1, 2006, the Company repurchased 0.5 million and 0.9 million shares, respectively, of its common stock at an aggregate cost of $14.0 million, leaving approximately $86.0 million available for future repurchases under the expanded repurchase program. Since the Company first began repurchasing its stock in fiscal 2001, the Company has repurchased 13.6 million shares at a cost of $269.8 million. Repurchases are recorded as treasury stock and result in a reduction of stockholders’ equity.

 


ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

All references are to our fiscal quarters ended October 1, 2006 (Q2 2007), October 2, 2005 (Q2 2006), and July 2, 2006 (Q1 2007), unless otherwise indicated. Quarterly financial results may not be indicative of the financial results of future periods.

This report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Forward-looking statements involve a number of risks and uncertainties. These include, but are not limited to: operating results; new product introductions and sales; competitive conditions; capital expenditures and resources; manufacturing capacity utilization; customer demand and inventory levels; intellectual property matters; mergers and acquisitions and integration activities; and the risk factors set forth in Part II, Item 1A “Risk Factors”. As a result of these risks and uncertainties, actual results could differ from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements. Unless otherwise required by law, we undertake no obligation to publicly revise these statements for future events or new information after the date of this Report on Form 10-Q.

Forward-looking statements, which are generally identified by words such as "anticipates," "expects," "plans," and similar terms, include statements related to revenues and gross profit, research and development activities, selling, general, and administrative expenses, intangible expenses, interest income and other, taxes, capital spending and financing transactions, as well as statements regarding successful development and market acceptance of new products, industry and overall economic conditions and demand, and capacity utilization.

On July 31, 2006, we completed the acquisition of the PC Audio business from SigmaTel, Inc. (“SigmaTel”). The amounts included herein, including forward-looking statements, contain the results of the PC Audio business from the date the transaction closed.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of such statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements. Our estimates and assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that we consider to be appropriate in the circumstances. However, actual future results may vary from our estimates and assumptions.

We believe that the following accounting policies are "critical" as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission, in that they are both highly important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results, and require difficult management judgments, estimates and assumptions about matters that are inherently uncertain.

Revenue Recognition. The Company’s revenue relates to semiconductors sold through three channels: direct sales to original equipment manufacturers (“OEM’s”) and electronic manufacturing service providers (“EMS’s”), consignment sales to OEM’s and EMS’s, and sales through distributors. The Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, the price is fixed or determinable, and our ability to collect is reasonably assured. For direct sales, we recognize revenue in accordance with the applicable shipping terms. Revenue related to the sale of consignment inventory is not recognized until the product is pulled from inventory stock by the customer. For distributors who have stock rotation, price protection and ship from stock pricing adjustment rights, the Company defers revenue and related cost of revenues on sales to these distributors until the product is sold through by the distributor to an end-customer.

In the APAC region, we have distributors for which revenue is recognized upon shipment, with reserves recorded for the estimated return and pricing adjustment exposure. The determination of the amount of reserves to be recorded for stock rotation rights requires the Company to make estimates as to the amount of product, which will be returned by customers within their limited rights. The Company utilizes historical return rates to estimate the exposure in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 48, Revenue Recognition when Right of Return Exists (SFAS 48). In addition, from time-to-time, the Company is required to give pricing adjustments to distributors for product purchased in a given quarter, which remains in their inventory. These amounts are estimated by management based on discussions with customers, assessment of market trends, as well as historical practice. Although actual results of return and pricing exposures have been within the Company’s estimates in the past, if our estimates are inaccurate, it could have a material impact on the Company’s revenues.

Income Taxes. We account for income taxes under an asset and liability approach that requires the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between book and tax bases of assets and liabilities be recognized as deferred tax assets and liabilities. Generally accepted accounting principles require us to evaluate the ability to realize the value of our net deferred tax assets on an ongoing basis. A valuation allowance is recorded to reduce the net deferred tax assets to an amount that will more likely than not be realized. Accordingly, we consider various tax planning strategies, forecasts of future taxable income and


our most recent operating results in assessing the need for a valuation allowance. In the consideration of the ability to realize the value of net deferred tax assets, recent results must be given substantially more weight than any projections of future profitability. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2003, we determined that, under applicable accounting principles, it was more likely than not that we would not realize any value for any of our net deferred tax assets. Accordingly, we established a valuation allowance equal to 100% of the amount of these net assets. Our assumptions regarding the ultimate realization of these assets remained unchanged in Q1 2007 and accordingly, we continue to maintain a valuation allowance equal to 100% of the amount of these assets.

In addition, we record liabilities related to income tax contingencies. Determining these liabilities requires us to make significant estimates and judgments as to whether, and the extent to which, additional taxes may be due based on potential tax audit issues in the U.S. and other tax jurisdictions throughout the world. Our estimates are based on the outcomes of previous audits, as well as the precedents set in cases in which others have taken similar tax positions to those taken by the Company. If we later determine that our exposure is lower or that the liability is not sufficient to cover our revised expectations, we adjust the liability and affect a related change in our tax provision during the period in which we make such determination.

Inventories. Except for inventories acquired in connection with business combinations or asset purchases, which are recorded at estimated fair market value (FMV), less estimated selling cost, inventories are recorded at the lower of standard cost (which generally approximates actual cost on a first-in, first-out basis) or market value. We record provisions for obsolete and excess inventory based on our forecasts of demand over specific future time horizons. We also record provisions to value our inventory at the lower of cost or market value, which rely on forecasts of average selling prices (ASPs) in future periods. Actual market conditions, demand, and pricing levels in the volatile semiconductor markets that we serve may vary from our forecasts, potentially impacting our inventory reserves and resulting in material impacts to our gross margin.

Valuation of Long-Lived Assets and Goodwill. We own and operate our own manufacturing facilities, as further described in Part I of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 2, 2006, and have also acquired certain businesses and product portfolios in recent years. As a result, we have significant property, plant and equipment, goodwill and other intangible assets. We evaluate these items for impairment on an annual basis, or sooner, if events or changes in circumstances indicate that carrying values may not be recoverable. Triggering events for impairment reviews may include adverse industry or economic trends, significant restructuring actions, significantly lowered projections of profitability, or a sustained decline in our market capitalization. Evaluations of possible impairment and if applicable, adjustments to carrying values, require us to estimate among other factors future cash flows, useful lives and fair market values of our reporting units and assets. Actual results may vary from our expectations.

Stock-based Compensation. On April 3, 2006, we adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (FASB) Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment (SFAS 123R), which requires that we measure and recognize compensation expense for all share-based payments awards, including employee stock options and rights to purchase shares under employee stock purchase plans, based on their estimated fair value and recognize the costs in the financial statements over the employees’ requisite service period. Total share-based compensation expense recognized during Q2 2007 was $13.2 million.

Calculating the fair value of share-based awards at the date of grant requires estimates and significant judgment. We use the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of employee stock options and rights to purchase shares under employee stock purchase plans, consistent with the provisions of SFAS 123R. Option-pricing models require the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the expected term of options and the expected price volatility of the stock underlying such options. Our stock price volatility assumption is based on a blend of historical volatility of the Company’s common stock and implied volatility of call options and dealer quotes on call options. Changes in the subjective assumptions required in the valuation models may significantly affect the estimated value of the awards, the related stock-based compensation expense and, consequently, our results of operations.

In addition, SFAS 123R requires that we estimate the number of share-based awards that will be forfeited due to employee turnover. Changes in the estmated forfeiture rate can have a significant effect on reported stock-based compensation expense, as the effect of adjusting the rate for all expense amortization after April 3, 2006 is recognized in the period the forfeiture estimate is changed. If the actual forfeiture rate is higher than the estimated forfeiture rate, then an adjustment will be made to increase the estimated forfeiture rate, which will result in a decrease to the expense recognized in the financial statements. If the actual forfeiture rate is lower than the estimated forfeiture rate, then an adjustment will be made to lower the estimated forfeiture rate, which will result in a increase to the expense recognized in the financial statements. The expense we recognize in future periods will be affected by changes in the estimated forfeiture rate and may differ significantly from amounts recognized in the current period and/or our forecasts.

Results of Operations

Revenues (Q2 2007 compared to Q2 2006). Our revenues for Q2 2007 were $205.2 million, an increase of $99.5 million, or 94% compared to Q2 2006. Approximately 60% of the growth is due to the inclusion of a full quarter’s revenues in Q2 2007 from


ICS products compared to only two weeks in Q2 2006, and approximately 40% of the $99.5 million in growth is due to organic growth from new and existing products. Excluding contributions from our recently acquired PC Audio business our revenues increased 89% when compared to Q2 2006. Overall, average selling prices (ASPs) per unit for our products decreased in Q2 2007 compared to Q2 2006, as products acquired through our merger with ICS and acquisition of Sigmatel’s PC Audio business have historically carried lower overall ASPs than those in our existing product portfolio. Overall, units sold increased significantly, primarily as a result of the ICS merger.

Revenues for our Networking segment (which includes network search engines (NSEs), switching solutions, flow-control management devices, FIFOs, multi-port products, and integrated communications processors) increased $9.0 million, or 17%, driven by organic growth. Revenues for our Timing segment (which includes clock management, DIMM support and other timing solution products) increased $78.3 million, or 312%, driven by revenues from the products acquired from ICS and organic growth from new and existing products. Revenues for our Standard Products and Other segment (which includes high-speed SRAM, military applications, digital logic, telecommunications, PC Audio and video products) increased $12.2 million, or 47%, driven by both the growth in our legacy standard products and the addition of revenues from our recently acquired PC Audio business.

We experienced revenue growth in each of our geographic regions when compared to the same period one year ago. Revenues in the Americas, Europe, Japan, and Asia Pacific region (APAC) increased 115%, 54%, 87%, and 96%, respectively. Worldwide revenue growth was attributable to the addition of revenues from our merger with ICS, strength in our computing and consumer end markets; despite a softer seasonal quarter for our communications end market, and our multiple product ramps, including Advanced Memory Buffers (AMBs), personal computer (PC) and consumer timing devices, and products from our recently acquired PC Audio business.

Revenues (Q2 2007 compared to Q1 2007). Sequentially, our revenues increased $19.6 million, or 11% compared to Q1 2007. Excluding contributions from our recently acquired PC Audio business, our revenues increased 7% when compared to Q1 2007. Overall ASP’s decreased slightly, primarily resulting from softer than anticipated demand for our military products, offset by sales of higher ASP products. Overall units sold increased by approximately 32.3 million units, or 24% driven primarily by growth in our computing and consumer end markets.

Revenues for our Networking segment decreased sequentially by $5.2 million, or 8%, which we attribute to softer seasonal demand in our communications end market. Units sold decreased slightly while ASP’s were essentially flat. Revenues for our Timing segment increased $20.8 million, or 25% driven by the seasonal recovery in PC clocks and the continued ramp of our AMB product. Units sold increased significantly while ASPs were down slightly. The increase in units sold is attributable to strength in our computing and consumer end markets, which drove sales of our clock products, including units for game consoles. Revenues for our Standard Products and Other segment increased $4.0 million, or 12%, driven primarily by the addition of revenues from our recently acquired PC Audio business, offset by a decrease in demand for our military products.

Revenues in the Americas and APAC experienced sequential growth of 9% and 20%, respectively, while revenues in Europe decreased by 5%. Revenues in Japan were essentially flat compared to Q1 2007. The increase in the Americas and APAC is attributable to strength in our computing and consumer end markets, which drove sales of our PC clock products and units for game consoles. The sequential decline in Europe is primarily attributable to our customers adjusting inventory levels to meet demand.

Revenues (first six months of fiscal 2007 compared to first six months of fiscal 2006). Our year-to-date revenues through Q2 2007 were $390.7 million, an increase of $191.2 million, or 96% when compared to the same period one year ago. Approximately 60% of the growth is due to the inclusion of a full six month’s revenues in YTD 2007 from ICS products compared to three and a half months in YTD 2006, and approximately 40% of the $191.2 million in growth is due to organic growth from new and existing products. Excluding contributions from our recently acquired PC Audio business our revenues increased 93% when compared to the first six months of fiscal 2006. Revenues in our Networking segment increased $21.1 million, or 19%, driven by organic growth. Revenues in our Timing segment increased $147.8 million, or 387%, driven by the addition of revenues from our merger with ICS and strength in our computing and consumer end markets, as noted above. Finally, revenues in our Standard Products and Other segment increased $22.3 million, or 44%, driven by both the growth in our legacy standard products and the addition of revenues from our recently acquired PC Audio business.

Revenues (recent trends and outlook). We currently expect our revenue in Q3 2007 to be up moderately as compared to Q2 2007 driven by growth in new product areas such as AMB, seasonal growth in our clock products for PC’s and game consoles, and a full quarter of revenues from our recently acquired PC Audio business.

Gross profit (Q2 2007 compared to Q2 2006). Gross profit was $86.7 million in Q2 2007, an increase of $50.9 million compared to Q2 2006. Gross margin for Q2 2007 was 42% compared to 34% in Q2 2006. Our gross margin increased due to improvements in our cost and expense structure, improvement in utilization in our fab, and a shift in mix to higher margin products. Cost and expense improvements included a reduction in depreciation expense, driven largely by assets located at our


fabrication facility that are now fully-depreciated and spending improvements related to restructuring measures. In Q2 2007, gross profit also benefited from a $2.9 million decrease in costs related to the sale of acquired inventory, valued at fair market value less an estimated selling cost, and a $3.4 million decrease in facility closure costs associated with our restructuring activities. Offsetting these amounts was $12.5 million of incremental intangible asset amortization, a $2.5 million impairment charge to reduce the carrying value of our facility in Manila, the Philippines, $0.7 million in connection with the decision to outsource our assembly operations currently performed in our facility in Penang, Malaysia, and $1.0 million of stock-based compensation expense. We believe that gross profit during Q2 2007 did not benefit from the sale of product previously reserved as excess, while Q2 2006 gross profit benefited by $0.2 million.

Gross profit (Q2 2007 compared to Q1 2007). Gross profit was $86.7 million in Q2 2007, an increase of $2.4 million compared to Q1 2007. Our gross margin for Q2 2007 was 42% compared to 45% for Q1 2007. Our gross margin decreased as a result of a shift in mix to lower margin products in the quarter. The increase in our gross profit is attributable to a significant increase in revenues as noted above, overhead cost reductions resulting from our restrucuring measures and improved utilization of our internal manufacturing capacity. Offsetting these amounts were costs related to our merger-related activities, including $2.3 million of incremental intangible asset amortization and $0.5 million of incremental cost related to the sale of acquired inventory, valued at fair market value less an estimated selling cost. In addition, we recorded a $2.5 million impairment charge to reduce the carrying value of our facility in Manila, the Philippines, $0.7 million of costs associated with the decision to outsource our assembly operations currently performed in ourfacility in Penang, Malaysia, and $0.6 million of incremental stock-based compensation expense. Finally, our gross profit was impacted by certain out-of-period sub-contractor expenses in Q2 2007 related to Q1 2007, that were deemed immaterial. We believe that gross profit in Q2 2007 and Q1 2007 did not benefit from the sale of product previously reserved as excess.

Gross Profit (first six months of fiscal 2007 compared to the first six months of fiscal 2006). Our year-to-date gross profit through Q2 2007 was $170.9 million, an increase of $92.5 million, or 118%, when compared to the same period one year ago. Our gross margin for YTD 2007 was 44% compared to 39% in YTD 2006. Our gross margin increased due to improvements in our cost and expense structure, improvement in utilization in our fab, and a shift in mix to higher margin products. Cost and expense improvements included a reduction in depreciation expense, driven largely by assets located at our fabrication facility that are now fully-depreciated and spending improvements related to restructuring measures. In the first six months of fiscal 2007, gross profit also benefited from a decrease of $1.4 million of cost related to the sale of acquired inventory, valued at fair market value less an estimated selling cost, and a $5.5 million decrease in facility closure costs associated with our restructuring activites. Offsetting these amounts was $29.4 million of incremental intangible asset amortization, impairment charges of $2.5 million to reduce the carrying value of our facility in Manila, the Philippines, and $1.4 million of stock-based compensation expense. We believe that gross profit in the first six months of fiscal 2007 and fiscal 2006 did not benefit from the sale of product previously reserved as excess.

Stock-based compensation. Stock-based compensation totaled $13.2 million and $11.0 million in Q2 2007 and Q1 2007, respectively, compared to zero during the first six months of fiscal 2006. The quarter-over-quarter increase is attributable to a full quarter of stock-based compensation related to the issuance of our annual focal awards, which were issued in mid-Q1 2007, and the issuance of stock based awards primarily related to the acquisition of Sigmatel’s PC Audio business. In addition, in Q2 2007, we adjusted our cumulative stock-based compensation expense to account for certain immaterial differences in prior valuations.

Effective April 3, 2006, we adopted the modified prospective transition method under the provisions of SFAS 123R. Prior to the adoption of SFAS 123R, we accounted for our equity incentive plans under the intrinsic value recognition and measurement principles of the Accounting Principles Board No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees (APB 25), and related interpretations. Accordingly, no stock-based compensation, other than amounts recorded in conjunction with acquisitions, was recognized in net income prior to our adoption of SFAS 123R. Unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested awards was $50.9 million and will be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.5 years.

Research and development (Q2 2007 compared to Q2 2006). Research and Development (R&D) expenses increased $12.8 million in Q2 2007 compared to Q2 2006. The increases were attributable to employee-related expenses, which increased $9.8 million as a result of our merger with ICS and performance-related bonuses, partially offset by savings associated with synergies related to the ICS merger integration and our restructuring activities. In addition, we recorded $7.1 million of stock-based compensation in conjunction with our adoption of SFAS 123R in Q1 2007. These amounts were offset by an incremental decrease in allocations of manufacturing spending to R&D activities, primarily attributable to the elimination of our process engineering function, and the absence of $2.0 million of impairment charges related to the exit of our leased facilities in Santa Clara and Salinas in Q2 2006.

Research and development (Q2 2007 compared to Q1 2007). R&D expenses increased $1.3 million in Q2 2007 compared to Q1 2007. The increase is primarily attributable to $1.4 million of incremental stock-based compensation. In addition, our indirect materials spending and facilities expenses increased $0.6 million and $0.4 million, respectively. These amounts were offset by a decrease in performance-related bonuses of approximately $1.1 million.

Research and development (first six months of fiscal 2007 compared to the first six months of fiscal 2006). Our year-to-date R&D expenses through Q2 2007 were $80.5 million, an increase of $24.9 million, or 45%, when compared to the same period one year ago. The increases were attributable to employee-related expenses, which increased $19.9 million as a result of our merger with ICS and performance-related bonuses, partially offset by savings associated with synergies related to the ICS merger integration and our restructuring activities. In addition, we recorded $12.8 million of stock-based compensation in conjunction with our adoption of SFAS 123R in Q1 2007. These amounts were offset by an incremental decrease in allocations of manufacturing spending to R&D activities, primarily attributable to the elimination of our process engineering function, and the absence of $2.0 million of impairment charges related to the exit of our leased facilities in Santa Clara and Salinas in Q2 2006.

We anticipate that R&D spending in Q3 2007 will increase moderately compared to Q2 2007 due to new product development activities and a full quarter of expenses from our PC Audio business.

Selling, General and Administrative (Q2 2007 compared to Q2 2006). Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A) expenses increased $23.3 million in Q2 2007 compared to Q2 2006. The primary increase is attributable to $14.5 million of incremental intangible asset amortization resulting from our merger with ICS, our acquisitions of the Freescale Assets and Sigmatel’s PC Audio business. Our employee-related expenses also increased incrementally by $3.5 million due to the additional headcount associated with our merger with ICS and performance-related bonuses, partially offset by savings associated with synergies related to the ICS merger integration and our restructuring activities. Finally, we recorded $5.1 million of stock-based compensation and an incremental increase of $2.2 million in sales representative commissions. These amounts were offset by the absence of $2.4 million of impairment charges related to the exit of our leased facilities in Santa Clara and Salinas in Q2 2006.

Selling, General and Administrative (Q2 2007 compared to Q1 2007). SG&A expenses increased $1.0 million in Q2 2007 compared to Q1 2007. Sales representative commissions increased by $0.7 million, intangible asset amortization increased $0.2 million and stock-based compensation expense increased $0.2 million. We also experienced increases in outside services, primarily related to patent support services, and equipment expenses. These amounts were offset by an incremental decrease in employee-related expenses of $0.9 million, primarily related to a decrease in performance-related bonuses.

Selling, General and Administrative (first six months of fiscal 2007 compared to the first six months of fiscal 2006). Our year-to-date SG&A expenses through Q2 2007 were $97.0 million, an increase of $52.3 million, or 117%, when compared to the same period one year ago. The increases were attributable to $32.8 million of incremental intangible asset amortization resulting from our merger with ICS, our acquisitions of the Freescale Assets and Sigmatel’s PC Audio business. We also recorded stock-based compensation of $10.0 million in conjunction with our adoption of SFAS 123R in Q1 2007. Our employee-related expenses increased incrementally by $7.8 million as a result of our merger with ICS and performance-related bonuses, partially offset by savings associated with synergies related to the ICS merger integration and our restructuring activities. Finally, we recorded an increase of $4.4 million in sales representative commissions due to increased sales as a result of our merger with ICS and due to a higher percentage of our revenues being generated by such sales representatives. These amounts were offset by the absence of $2.4 million of impairment charges related to the exit of our leased facilities in Santa Clara and Salinas in Q2 2006.

We currently anticipate that SG&A spending in Q3 2007 will increase slightly compared to Q2 2007 due to revenue related expenses and a full quarter of expenses from our PC Audio business.

Restructuring Actions. In Q2 2007, we initiated a reduction-in-force, which affected our assembly workforce in Malaysia. This action coincides with our decision to outsource our assembly operations to a third party and to transition these services over the next year. This action will result in the reduction of approximately 300 employees. We recorded $0.7 million of expense to cost of revenues in Q2 2007, which is equivalent to the portion guaranteed to each affected employee under Malaysian labor law. We will record the remaining severance and benefits owed to the affected employees over the transition period.

Asset impairment. We own an assembly and test facility in Manila, the Philippines that has been classified as held-for-sale since


fiscal Q3 2006 (Manila disposal group). Although we have been marketing this facility since it was vacated we have been unable to sell the Manila disposal group to date. In Q2 2007 the fair value of the Manila disposal group was reassessed by management, using input provided by a third-party valuation expert, and it was determined that the current carrying value of approximately $7.1 million exceeded the market value. As a result, we recorded an impairment charge of approximately $2.5 million to reduce the carrying value of the Manila disposal group to its estimated market value, less selling costs, and began marketing the Manila disposal group at the reduced price.

Other-than-temporary impairment loss on investments. During Q1 2006, we recorded an other-than-temporary loss of $1.7 million on certain available-for-sale investments, the fair value of which had gradually decreased over the prior twelve months as a result of interest rate increases. This action was based upon the magnitude and length of time these securities had been in a continuous unrealized loss position and in consideration of our near-term cash requirements related to the merger with ICS.

Interest income and other, net. Interest income and other, net, was $3.9 million in Q2 2007, an increase of $0.7 million, or 23% compared to Q2 2006. The increase is primarily attributable to higher investment balances resulting from cash generated from operations and invested in instruments generally having a higher interest rate than those provided by instruments we invested in one year ago.

Provision/Benefit for income taxes. We recorded an income tax provision of $0.8 million in Q2 2007 as compared to an income tax provision of approximately $2.1 million in Q2 2006. The provision for income taxes in Q2 2007 primarily reflects estimated foreign income and withholding taxes and estimated U.S. state taxes. The provision for income taxes in Q2 2006 primarily reflects estimated foreign income and withholding taxes, estimated U.S. federal alternative minimum taxes and U.S. state taxes. The Q2 2006 provision also includes U.S. tax of $1.3 million as a result of a $25.1 million distribution under the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 (“AJCA”).

We recorded an income tax provision of $2.3 million for the six months ended Q2 2007 as compared to an income tax benefit of $6.2 million for the six months ended Q2 2006. The provision for income taxes in the six months ended Q2 2007 primarily reflects estimated foreign income and withholding taxes and estimated U.S. state taxes. The income tax benefit for the six months ended Q2 2006 primarily reflects estimated foreign income and withholding taxes, estimated U.S. federal alternative minimum taxes and U.S. state taxes, offset by the benefit of a reversal of a reserve related to IRS audit.

As of October 1, 2006, we continued to maintain a full valuation allowance against our net U.S. deferred tax asset as we could not conclude that it is more likely than not that we will be able to realize our U.S. deferred tax assets in the foreseeable future. As a result of significant deferred tax liabilities recorded in connection with the ICS acquisition in Q2 2006, we decreased our valuation allowance by approximately $63.5 million in that period, for which the offset was recorded to goodwill.

In Q1 2006, as a result of a partial settlement with the IRS pertaining to its examination of certain items in our income tax returns for fiscal years 2000 through 2002, we recorded a net reduction in our income taxes payable of $8.9 million as a partial settlement. The examination by the IRS of our income tax returns for fiscal years 2003 and 2004 has not yet been finally determined.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our cash and short-term investments were $332.4 million at October 1, 2006, an increase of $36.5 million compared to April 2, 2006. We had no debt outstanding at October 1, 2006.

We recorded a net loss of $2.2 million in the first six months of fiscal 2007 compared to a net loss of $12.9 million in the first six months of fiscal 2006. Net cash provided by operating activities increased $43.6 million, or 76% to $100.9 million in the first six months of fiscal 2007 compared to $57.3 million in the first six months of fiscal 2006. A summary of the significant changes in non-cash adjustments affecting net loss is as follows:

 

    Amortization of intangible assets was $76.5 million in the first six months of fiscal 2007 compared to $14.2 million in the same period one year ago. The increase is attributable to our merger with ICS, the acquisition of the Freescale Assets and Sigmatel’s PC Audio business.

 

    In conjunction with our adoption of SFAS 123R on April 3, 2006 stock-based compensation expense was $24.2 million during the first six months of fiscal 2007. We recorded no such expenses in the same period one year ago.

 

    Depreciation expense was $16.6 million in the first six months of fiscal 2007 compared to $27.0 million in the same period one year ago. The decrease is primarily the attributable to assets located at our fabrication facility in Hillsboro, Oregon that are now fully-depreciated.

 

    We recorded restructuring and impairment charges of $2.7 million in the first six months of fiscal 2007. In Q2 2007, we recorded a $2.5 million charge to reduce the carrying value of our facility in Manila, the Philippines and in Q1 2007, we recorded $0.2 million related to the exit of our leased facility in Sydney, Australia. We recorded restructuring and impairment charges of $8.8 million in the first six months of fiscal 2006. In Q2 2006 we recorded a $7.1 million charge in conjunction with the exit of our leased facilities in Santa Clara and Salinas. In Q1 2006, we recorded an other-than-temporary impairment charge of $1.7 million related to investments in our portfolio that had been trading at below cost for more than 12 months.


Net uses of cash related to working capital-related items decreased $35.1 million, from a net $17.6 million source of cash in the first six months of fiscal 2006 to a net $17.4 million use of cash in the first six months of fiscal 2007. Working capital items consuming relatively more cash in Q1 2007 included:

 

    An increase in inventory of $25.0 million in the first six months of fiscal 2007 compared to a decrease of $11.9 million in the first six months of 2006. The increase is primarily attributable to our adjusting inventory levels to meet anticipated customer demand in our computing and consumer end markets, including the ramp of our AMBs, recovery of our PC Clock business and the acquisition of Sigmatel’s PC Audio business.

 

    An increase in accounts receivable of $9.2 million in the first six months of fiscal 2007 compared to a decrease of $7.0 million in the first six months of fiscal 2006. The increase is primarily attributable to increased revenues resulting from strength in our computing and consumer end markets.

 

    A decrease in income taxes payable of $12.5 million in the first six months of fiscal 2007 compared to a decrease of $7.7 million in the first six months of fiscal 2006. The decrease during the first six months of fiscal 2007 is attributable to tax payments. The decrease in the first six months of fiscal 2006 is attributable to the net reduction of approximately $8.9 million of previously accrued tax reserves in conjunction with our receiving a final determination from the IRS on issues in connection with our audit for tax years 2000 to 2002.

The above factors were offset by other working capital items that provided relatively more cash in the first six months of fiscal 2007:

 

    An increase in accounts payable of $12.7 million in the first six months of fiscal 2007 compared to an increase of $1.6 million in the first six months of fiscal 2006. The increase during the first six months of fiscal 2007 is due to increased activities resulting from a larger organization compared to the same period one year ago, as well as the timing of payments.

 

    An increase in accrued compensation of $7.8 million in the first six months of fiscal 2007 compared to an increase of $0.6 million in the first six months of fiscal 2006. The increase in the first six months of fiscal 2007 is primarily attributable to an increase in performance-related bonuses and the timing of payroll disbursements.

 

    An increase of $4.9 million in deferred income on shipments to distributors in the first six months of fiscal 2007 compared to $0.8 million in the first six months of fiscal 2006. The increase during the first six months of fiscal 2007 is primarily attributable to our distributors increasing their inventory levels to meet anticipated customer demand.

Net cash used in investing activities was $121.6 million in the first six months of fiscal 2007 compared to a net use of $83.6 million in the first six months of fiscal 2006. The increase is primarily attributable to $73.2 million of cash used to purchase Sigmatel’s PC Audio business in Q2 2007. In addition, we continued to build our investment portfolio by $39.6 million using cash from operations. In the first six months of fiscal 2006, our net sales of short-term investments totaled $399.2 million as we liquidated securities in anticipation of our merger with ICS. Finally, purchases of capital equipment decreased $5.7 million during the first six months of fiscal 2007 compared to the same period one year ago as we continue to move to an increasingly fabless semiconductor capital model.

Net cash generated by financing activities in the first six months of fiscal 2007 was $17.0 million compared to $15.8 million in the first six months of fiscal 2006. The increase is primarily attributable to an increase in proceeds from the issuances of common stock, which were higher by approximately $15.2 million, attributable to an increased stock price in the current year compared to the same period one year ago. The increase was partially offset by the repurchase of approximately $14.0 million of common stock in the first six months of fiscal 2007. We had no such activity in Q1 2006.

We anticipate capital expenditures of approximately $25.0 million during fiscal 2007 to be financed through cash generated from operations and existing cash and investments. This estimate includes $8.7 million in capital expenditures in the first six months of fiscal 2007.

We believe that existing cash and investment balances, together with cash flows from operations, should be sufficient to meet our working capital and capital expenditure needs for at least the next twelve months. Should we need to investigate other financing alternatives however, we cannot be certain that additional financing will be available on satisfactory terms.

Off-balance Sheet Arrangements

As of October 1, 2006, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements, as defined under Regulation S-K Item 303(a)(4).


Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In July 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (FIN 48). FIN 48 prescribes a comprehensive model for how a company should recognize, measure, present, and disclose in its financial statements uncertain tax positions that the Company has taken or expects to take on a tax return (including a decision whether to file or not to file a return in a particular jurisdiction). FIN 48 is applicable to all uncertain tax positions for taxes accounted for under FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes (SFAS 109) and substantially changes the applicable accounting model. FIN 48 is likely to cause greater volatility in income statements as more items are recognized discretely within income tax expense. FIN 48 is effective beginning with Company’s first quarter of fiscal year 2008. The Company is currently assessing the impact of FIN 48.

On September 13, 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108, Considering the effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements (SAB 108), which provides interpretive guidance on how the effects of the carryover or reversal of prior year misstatements should be considered in quantifying a current year misstatement. The guidance is applicable for the Company’s fiscal 2007. The Company is not yet in a position to determine what, if any, effects SAB 108 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Our interest rate risk relates primarily to our short-term investments of $69.6 million as of October 1, 2006. By policy, we limit our exposure to long-term investments and mitigate the credit risk through diversification and adherence to a policy requiring the purchase of highly rated securities. As of October 1, 2006 and April 2, 2006, the Company’s cash and investment portfolio was highly concentrated in securities with same day liquidity. Due to the relatively short duration of our investment portfolio, a hypothetical 10% change in interest rates would not have a material effect on the value of our portfolio at this time. We do not currently use derivative financial instruments in our investment portfolio.

In addition, we maintain a portfolio of investments for certain deferred compensation arrangements, the fair value of which was $11.2 million as of October 1, 2006. The portfolio is managed to achieve the same investment allocation as the participants’ directed investment election, which is classified in Other Long-Term Liabilities within the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

At October 1, 2006, we had no outstanding debt.

We are exposed to foreign currency exchange rate risk as a result of international sales, assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries, local operating expenses of our foreign entities and capital purchases denominated in foreign currencies. We may use derivative financial instruments to help manage our foreign currency exchange exposures. However, as of October 1, 2006 we have no such instruments outstanding. We do not enter into derivatives for speculative or trading purposes. We performed a sensitivity analysis as of October 1, 2006 and determined that, without hedging the exposure, a 10% change in the value of the U.S. dollar would result in an approximate 0.3% impact on gross profit margin percentage, as we operate manufacturing facilities in Malaysia and Singapore, and an approximate 0.3% impact to operating expenses (as a percentage of revenue) as we operate sales offices in Japan and throughout Europe and design centers in China and Canada.

We did not have any currency exposure related to any outstanding capital purchases as of October 1, 2006 or April 2, 2006.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognizes that any disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and our management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures.

At October 1, 2006, the end of the quarter covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at a reasonable assurance level. There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the Company’s most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonable likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.


PART II OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

On October 24, 2006, we were served with a civil antitrust complaint filed by Reclaim Center, Inc., et. al. as plaintiffs in the US District Court for the Northern District of California against the Company and 37 other entities on behalf of a purported class of indirect purchasers of Static Random Access Memory (SRAM) products. The Complaint alleges that the defendants conspired to raise the prices of SRAM, in violation of Section 1 of the Sherman Act, the California Cartwright Act, and several other states' antitrust, unfair competition, and consumer protection statutes. Shortly thereafter, a number of other plaintiffs filed similar complaints. Given its early stage, we cannot predict the outcome of this litigation. Any litigation could be costly, divert our management’s attention and could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

Our operating results can fluctuate dramatically. Our operating results have fluctuated in the past and are likely to vary in the future. For example, we recorded a net loss of $81.7 million in fiscal 2006 after recording net income of $13.3 million and $6.4 million in fiscal 2005 and 2004, respectively. Fluctuations in operating results can result from a wide variety of factors, including:

 

    The cyclicality of the semiconductor industry and industry-wide wafer processing capacity;

 

    Difficulty in predicting customer product requirements;

 

    Adverse financial conditions experienced by any of our large customers;

 

    Changes in demand for our products and in the markets we and our customers serve;

 

    The success and timing of new product and process technology announcements and introductions from us or our competitors;

 

    Potential loss of market share among a concentrated group of customers;

 

    Competitive pricing pressures;

 

    Changes in the demand for and mix of products sold;

 

    Production difficulties and interruptions caused by our complex manufacturing and logistics operations;

 

    Difficulty in managing fixed costs of our manufacturing capability in the face of changes in demand;

 

    Reduced control over our manufacturing and product delivery as a result of our increasing reliance on subcontractors;

 

    Availability and costs of raw materials, and of foundry and other manufacturing services;

 

    Unexpected changes in customer product requirement forecasts;

 

    Costs associated with other events, such as intellectual property disputes, or other litigation; and

 

    Political and economic conditions in various geographic areas; and

 

    Costs and other issues relating to complicated and future acquisitions.

Many of these factors also impact the recoverability of the carrying value of certain of our manufacturing, tax, goodwill, and other tangible and intangible assets. As business conditions change, future write-downs or abandonment of these assets may occur. For example, in Q2 2007, we recorded an impairment charge of approximately $2.5 million to reduce the carrying value of our facility in Manila, the Philippines, which is currently held-for-sale, to reflect current real estate market conditions. In addition, in Q1 2006 and Q4 2006, we recorded impairment charges of $1.7 million and $0.6 million, respectively, for our investment portfolio and intangibles related to our acquisition of Newave.

Further, we may be unable to compete successfully in the future against existing or potential competitors, and our operating results could be harmed by increased competition. Our operating results are also impacted by changes in overall economic conditions, both domestically and abroad. Should economic conditions deteriorate, domestically or overseas, our sales and business results could be harmed.

The cyclicality of the semiconductor industry exacerbates the volatility of our operating results. The semiconductor industry is highly cyclical. Significant changes in demand for our products have occurred rapidly and suddenly in the past. In addition, market conditions characterized by excess supply relative to demand and resulting selling price declines have also occurred in the past. Significant shifts in demand for our products and selling price declines resulting from excess supply may occur in the future. Significant and rapid swings in demand and average selling prices for our products can result in lower revenues and underutilization of our fixed cost infrastructure, both of which would cause material fluctuations in our gross margins and our operating results.

In connection with our merger with ICS, we reviewed and modified our combined IDT and ICS distributor network. In Asia Pacific, in particular, we made changes to our distributors and the terms and conditions under which our distribution business is conducted. As a result of these changes, a higher percentage of our revenue in this region is now recognized at the time we sell product to our distributors. Consequently, we now have reduced visibility over both inventory levels at our distributors and end


customer demand for our products. Further, the distributors have assumed more risk associated with changes in end demand for our products. Accordingly, significant changes in end demand in the semiconductor business in general, or for our products in particular, may be difficult for us to detect or otherwise measure, which could cause us to incorrectly forecast demand for our products. If we are not able to accurately forecast end demand for our products our business and financial results could be adversely affected.

A significant amount of our accounts receivable is concentrated with a relatively small number of our customers. As a result of our merger with ICS, we maintain significant relationships with distributors with whom we had no operating experience prior to the merger. For example, Maxtek and its affiliates represented 22% of our gross accounts receivable balance as of October 1, 2006. If any one or more of these global distributors were to file for bankruptcy or otherwise experience significantly adverse financial conditions, our business and financial results could be adversely impacted.

Demand for our products depends primarily on demand in the communications, personal computer (PC), and consumer markets. Our products consist primarily of timing and communications chips in the communications, PC, and consumer markets. Our strategy and resources will be directed at the development, production and marketing of products to these markets. To the extent we are unable to develop, produce and market our products on a timely basis ahead of competitive products or alternative products and at competitive prices, our products may not be selected by current and potential customers and demand for such products may decline. In addition, the markets for our products will depend on continued and growing demand for communications equipment, PCs and consumer electronics. These end-user markets may experience changes in demand that would adversely affect our business. To the extent demand for our products or markets for our products do not grow, our business could be adversely affected.

The majority of our products are incorporated into our customers' systems in enterprise/carrier class network, wireless infrastructure, and access network applications. A smaller percentage of our products also serve in customers' computer storage, computer-related, and other applications. The communications markets in which we sell these products have historically been characterized by rapid technological change and significant fluctuations in demand. Demand for a significant portion of our products, and therefore potential increases in revenue, depends upon growth in the communications market, particularly in the data networking and wireless telecommunications infrastructure markets and, to a lesser extent, the PC market. Any slowdown in the communications or PC market could materially adversely affect our operating results

A majority of the sales of ICS’ products depend largely on sales of PCs and peripherals for PCs. Following the merger with ICS, a significant portion of our sales continue to be in the PC market. The PC industry is subject to price competition, rapid technological change, evolving standards, short product life cycles and continuous erosion of average selling prices. Should the PC market decline or experience slower growth, then a decline in the order rate for our products could occur and sales could decline. A downturn in the communications or PC markets could also affect the financial health of some of our customers, which could affect our ability to collect outstanding accounts receivable from such customers.

Our results are dependent on the success of new products. The markets we serve are characterized by price competition, rapid technological change, evolving standards, short product life cycles and continuous erosion of average selling prices. Consequently, our future success will be highly dependent upon our ability to continually develop new products using the latest and most cost-effective technologies, introduce our products in commercial quantities to the marketplace ahead of the competition and have our products selected for inclusion in leading systems manufacturers’ products. In addition, the development of new products and wafer processing technology will continue to require significant R&D expenditures. If we are unable to successfully develop, produce and market new products in a timely manner, to have our products available in commercial quantities ahead of competitive products or to have our products selected for inclusion in products of systems manufacturers and to sell them at gross margins comparable to or better than our current products, our future results of operations could be adversely impacted. In addition, our future revenue growth is also partially dependent on our ability to penetrate new markets, where we have limited experience and where competitors are already entrenched. Even if we are able to develop, produce and successfully market new products in a timely manner, such new products may not achieve market acceptance.

We are dependent on a concentrated group of customers for a significant part of our revenues. A large portion of our revenues depend on sales to a limited number of customers. If these relationships were to diminish, and if these customers were to develop their own solutions or adopt a competitor’s solution instead of buying our products, our results could be adversely affected. For example, any diminished relationship with Cisco or other key customers could adversely affect our results. While we historically have made few sales to Cisco directly, when all channels of distribution are considered, including sales of product to electronic manufacturing service providers (“EMS”) customers, we estimate that Cisco represented between 17-20% of our total revenues during the first six months of fiscal 2007. As a result of the ICS merger, our Cisco business has become a smaller percentage of our total revenues, but Cisco still represents our largest customer.

Many of our end-customer OEMs have outsourced their manufacturing to a concentrated group of global EMSs who then buy product directly from us on behalf of the OEM. EMSs have achieved greater autonomy in the design win, product qualification and product purchasing decisions, especially for commodity products. Furthermore, these EMSs have generally been centralizing


their global procurement processes. This has had the effect of concentrating a significant percentage of our revenue with a small number of companies. For example, one EMS, Solectron, accounted for approximately 9% of our fiscal 2006 revenues and represented approximately 12% of our accounts receivable as of April 2, 2006. Competition for the business of these EMSs is intense and there is no assurance we can remain competitive and retain our existing market share with these customers. If these companies were to allocate a higher share of commodity or second-source business to our competitors instead of buying our products, our results would be adversely affected. Furthermore, as EMSs have represented a growing percentage of our overall business, our concentration of credit and other business risks with these customers has increased. Competition among global EMSs is intense as they operate on extremely thin margins. Overall, the financial condition of EMSs, on average, declined significantly during the industry downturn in fiscal 2001- 2002. If any one or more of these global EMSs were to file for bankruptcy or otherwise experience significantly adverse financial conditions, our business would be adversely impacted as well.

Finally, we utilize a relatively small number of global and regional distributors around the world, who buy product directly from us on behalf of their customers. For example, one distributor, Avnet, represented approximately 13% of our revenues for fiscal 2006 and represented approximately 7% of our accounts receivable as of April 2, 2006. If our business relationships were to diminish or any one or more of these global distributors were to file for bankruptcy or otherwise experience significantly adverse financial conditions, our business could be adversely impacted. Because we will be dependent upon continued revenue from a small group of OEM end customers, EMSs and global and regional distributors, any material delay, cancellation or reduction of orders from or loss of these or other major customers could cause our sales to decline significantly, and we may not be able to reduce the accompanying expenses at the same rate.

Our product manufacturing operations are complex and subject to interruption. From time to time, we have experienced production difficulties, including reduced manufacturing yields or products that do not meet our or our customers' specifications that have caused delivery delays, quality problems and lost revenue opportunities. While delivery delays have been infrequent and generally short in duration, we could experience manufacturing problems, capacity constraints and/or product delivery delays in the future as a result of, among other things, the complexity of our manufacturing processes, changes to our process technologies (including transfers to other facilities and die size reduction efforts), and difficulties in ramping production and installing new equipment at our facilities.

Substantially all of our revenues are derived from products manufactured at facilities which are exposed to the risk of natural disasters. If we were unable to use our facilities or those of our subcontractors and third party foundries as a result of a natural disaster or otherwise, our operations would be materially adversely affected. While we maintain certain levels of insurance against selected risks of business interruption, not all risks can be insured at a reasonable cost. For example, we do not insure our facilities for earthquake damage due to the costs involved. Even if we have purchased insurance, the adverse impact on our business, including both costs and lost revenue opportunities, could greatly exceed the amounts, if any, that we might recover from our insurers.

We are dependent upon electric power generated by public utilities where we operate our manufacturing facilities and we have periodically experienced electrical power interruptions. We maintain limited backup generating capability, but the amount of electric power that we can generate on our own is insufficient to fully operate these facilities, and prolonged power interruptions could have a significant adverse impact on our business.

A portion of our manufacturing capability is relatively fixed in nature. Although we have reduced our manufacturing cost structure substantially over the past five years, a portion of our manufacturing capability is relatively fixed in nature. Large and rapid swings in demand for our products can make it difficult to efficiently utilize this capacity on a consistent basis. Significant reductions in demand for our products, as we have most recently experienced in fiscal 2002 and 2003, will result in material under utilization of our manufacturing facilities while sudden increases in demand for our products could leave us short of capacity and unable to capitalize on incremental revenue opportunities. These swings and the resulting under utilization of our manufacturing capacity or inability to procure sufficient capacity to meet end customer demand for our products will cause material fluctuations in the gross margins we report, and could have a material adverse affect thereon.

We build most of our products based on estimated demand forecasts. Demand for our products can change rapidly and without advance notice. Demand can also be affected by changes in our customers’ levels of inventory and differences in the timing and pattern of orders from their end customers. If demand forecasts are inaccurate or change suddenly, we may me be left with large amounts of unsold products, may not be able to fill all actual orders, may not be able to efficiently utilize our existing manufacturing capacity or make optimal investment and other business decisions. As a result, we may end up with excess and obsolete inventory or we may be unable to meet customer short-term demands, either of which could have an adverse impact on our operating results.

We are increasingly reliant upon subcontractors. We utilize subcontractors for the majority of our assembly requirements (typically at higher costs than at our internal assembly and test operations) and our use of subcontractors has increased with the decision to outsource assembly operations in our Penang, Malaysia facility in fiscal Q2 2007, the closure of our test and assembly facility in Manila, the Philippines in fiscal Q2 2006 and the addition of ICS. We also have depended on third-party outside


foundries for the manufacture of silicon wafers. Our increased reliance on subcontractors and third party foundries for our current products increases certain risks because we will have less control over manufacturing quality and delivery schedules, maintenance of sufficient capacity to meet our orders and generally, maintaining the manufacturing processes we require. We expect our use of subcontractors and third-party foundries to increase. Due to production lead times and potential subcontractor capacity constraints, any failure on our part to adequately forecast the mix of product demand and resulting foundry and subcontractor requirements could adversely affect our operating results. In addition, we cannot be certain that these foundries and subcontractors will continue to manufacture, assemble, package, and test products for us on acceptable economic and quality terms or at all and it may be difficult for us to find alternatives if they do not do so.

We have made and may continue to make acquisitions which could divert management’s attention, cause ownership dilution to our stockholders, be difficult to integrate and adversely affect our financial results. Acquisitions are commonplace in the semiconductor industry and we may acquire businesses or technologies. Integrating newly acquired businesses or technologies could put a strain on our resources, could be costly and time consuming, and might not be successful. Such acquisitions could divert our management’s attention from other business concerns. In addition, we might lose key employees while integrating new organizations. Acquisitions could also result in customer dissatisfaction, performance problems with an acquired company or technology, potentially dilutive issuances of equity securities or the incurrence of debt, the assumption or incurrence of contingent liabilities, possible impairment charges related to goodwill or other intangible assets or other unanticipated events or circumstances, any of which could harm our business. Consequently, we might not be successful in integrating any acquired businesses, products or technologies, and might not achieve anticipated revenues and cost benefits.

We are dependent on a limited number of suppliers. Our manufacturing operations depend upon obtaining adequate raw materials on a timely basis. The number of vendors of certain raw materials, such as silicon wafers, ultra-pure metals and certain chemicals and gases needed for our products, is very limited. In addition, certain packages for our products require long lead times and are available from only a few suppliers. From time to time, vendors have extended lead times or limited supply to us due to capacity constraints. Our results of operations would be materially adversely affected if we were unable to obtain adequate supplies of raw materials in a timely manner or if there were significant increases in the costs of raw materials, or if foundry or back-end subcontractor capacity was not available, or was only available at uncompetitive prices.

We are subject to a variety of environmental and other regulations related to hazardous materials used in our manufacturing processes. Any failure by us to adequately control the use or discharge of hazardous materials under present or future regulations could subject us to substantial costs or liabilities or cause our manufacturing operations to be suspended.

We have limited experience with government contracting, which entails differentiated business risks. Currently, certain of our subsidiaries derive revenue from contracts and subcontracts with agencies of, or prime contractors to, the U.S. government, including U.S. military agencies. Although former employees of ICS who work for us have experience contracting with agencies of the U.S. government, historically we have not contracted with agencies of the U.S. government. As a company engaged, in part, in supplying defense-related equipment to U.S. government agencies, we are subject to certain business risks that are peculiar to companies that contract with U.S. government agencies. These risks include the ability of the U.S. government unilaterally to:

 

    Terminate contracts at its convenience;

 

    Terminate, modify or reduce the value of existing contracts, if its budgetary constraints or needs change;

 

    Cancel multi-year contracts and related orders, if funds become unavailable;

 

    Adjust contract costs and fees on the basis of audits performed by U.S. government agencies;

 

    Control and potentially prohibit the export of our products;

 

    Require that the company continue to supply products despite the expiration of a contract under certain circumstances; and

 

    Require that the company fill certain types of rated orders for the U.S. government prior to filling any orders for other customers; and

 

    Suspend us from receiving new contracts pending resolution of any alleged violations of procurement laws or regulations.

In addition, because we have defense industry contracts that are sold both within and outside of the United States, we are subject to the following risks in connection with government contracts:

 

    The need to bid on programs prior to completing the necessary design, which may result in unforeseen technological difficulties and/or cost overruns;

 

    The difficulty in forecasting long-term costs and schedules and the potential obsolescence of products related to long-term fixed price contracts; and

 

    The need to transfer and obtain security clearances and export licenses, as appropriate.


Intellectual property claims could adversely affect our business and operations. The semiconductor industry is characterized by vigorous protection and pursuit of intellectual property rights, which has resulted in significant and often protracted and expensive litigation. We have been involved in patent litigation in the past, which adversely affected our operating results. Although we have obtained patent licenses from certain semiconductor manufacturers, we do not have licenses from a number of semiconductor manufacturers that have broad patent portfolios. Claims alleging infringement of intellectual property rights have been asserted against us in the past and could be asserted against us in the future. These claims could result in our having to discontinue the use of certain processes; cease the manufacture, use and sale of infringing products; incur significant litigation costs and damages; and develop non-infringing technology. We might not be able to obtain such licenses on acceptable terms or to develop non-infringing technology. Further, the failure to renew or renegotiate existing licenses on favorable terms, or the inability to obtain a key license, could materially adversely affect our business.

International operations add increased volatility to our operating results. A growing and now substantial percentage of our revenues are derived from international sales, as summarized below:

In addition, our facilities in Malaysia and Singapore, our design centers in Canada and China, and our foreign sales offices incur payroll, facility and other expenses in local currencies. Accordingly, movements in foreign currency exchange rates can impact our revenues and costs of goods sold, as well as both pricing and demand for our products.

Our offshore sites and export sales are also subject to risks associated with foreign operations, including:

 

  political instability and acts of war or terrorism, which could disrupt our manufacturing and logistical activities;

 

  regulations regarding use of local employees and suppliers;

 

  currency controls and fluctuations, devaluation of foreign currencies, hard currency shortages and exchange rate fluctuations;

 

  changes in local economic conditions;

 

  governmental regulation of taxation of our earnings and those of our personnel; and

 

  changes in tax laws, import and export controls, tariffs and freight rates.

Contract pricing for raw materials and equipment used in the fabrication and assembly processes, as well as for foundry and subcontract assembly services, can also be impacted by currency controls, exchange rate fluctuations and currency devaluations. We sometimes hedge currency risk for currencies that are highly liquid and freely quoted but may not enter into hedge contracts for currencies with limited trading volume.

In addition, in support of our international operations, a portion of our cash and investment portfolio accumulates offshore. At October 1, 2006, we had cash and investments of approximately $72.3 million invested overseas in accounts belonging to various IDT foreign operating entities. While these amounts are primarily invested in US dollars, a portion is held in foreign currencies, and all offshore balances are exposed to local political, banking, currency control and other risks. In addition, these amounts may be subject to tax and other restrictions, if repatriated.

We depend on the ability of our personnel, raw materials, equipment and products to move reasonably unimpeded around the world. Any political, military, world health (e.g., SARS, Bird Flu) or other issue which hinders this movement or restricts the import or export of materials could lead to significant business disruptions. Furthermore, any strike, economic failure, or other material disruption on the part of major airlines or other transportation companies could also adversely affect our ability to conduct business. If such disruptions result in cancellations of customer orders or contribute to a general decrease in economic activity or corporate spending on information technology, or directly impact our marketing, manufacturing, financial and logistics functions, our results of operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected.

We are exposed to potential impairment charges on investments. From time to time, we have made strategic investments in other companies, both public and private. If the companies that we invest in are unable to execute their plans and succeed in their respective markets, we may not benefit from such investments, and we could potentially lose the amounts we invest. In addition,


we evaluate our investment portfolio on a regular basis to determine if impairments have occurred. Impairment charges could have a material impact on our results of operations in any period. For example, in Q1 2006, we recorded impairment charges of $1.7 million for our investment portfolio in anticipation of our merger with ICS.

Our common stock has experienced substantial price volatility. Such volatility may occur in the future, particularly as a result of quarter-to-quarter variations in our actual or anticipated financial results, those of other semiconductor companies or our customers. Stock price volatility may also result from product announcements by us or our competitors, or from changes in perceptions about the various types of products we manufacture and sell. In addition, our stock price may fluctuate due to price and volume fluctuations in the stock market, especially in the technology sector, and as a result of other considerations or events described in Part II, Item 1A Risk Factors of this form 10-Q.

Our results of operations could vary as a result of the methods, estimates and judgments we use in applying our accounting policies. The methods, estimates and judgments we use in applying our accounting policies have a significant impact on our results of operations (see “Critical Accounting Policies” in Part I, Item 2 of this Form 10-Q). Such methods, estimates and judgments are, by their nature, subject to substantial risks, uncertainties and assumptions, and factors may arise over time that lead us to change our methods, estimates and judgments. Changes in those methods, estimates and judgments could significantly affect our results of operations. In particular, the calculation of stock-based compensation expense under SFAS 123R requires us to use valuation methodologies (which were not developed for use in valuing employee stock options) and make a number of assumptions, estimates and conclusions regarding matters such as expected forfeitures, expected volatility of our share price and the exercise behavior of our employees. Changes in these variables could impact our stock-based compensation expense and have a significant impact on our gross margins, R&D and SG&A expenses.

Our business is subject to changing regulation of corporate governance and public disclosure that has increased both our costs and the risk of noncompliance. Because our common stock is publicly traded, we are subject to certain rules and regulations of federal, state and financial market exchange entities charged with the protection of investors and the oversight of companies whose securities are publicly traded. These entities, including the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, the SEC and NASDAQ, have recently issued requirements and regulations and continue developing additional regulations and requirements in response to corporate scandals and laws enacted by Congress, most notably the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Our efforts to comply with these regulations have resulted in, and are likely to continue resulting in, increased general and administrative expenses and diversion of management time and attention from revenue-generating activities to compliance activities.

Because new and modified laws, regulations and standards are subject to varying interpretations in many cases due to their lack of specificity, their application in practice may evolve over time as new guidance is provided by regulatory and governing bodies. This evolution may result in continuing uncertainty regarding compliance matters and additional costs necessitated by ongoing revisions to our disclosure and governance practices.

We are dependent on key personnel. Our performance is substantially dependent on the performance of our executive officers and key employees. The loss of the services of any of our executive officers, technical personnel or other key employees could adversely affect our business. In addition, our future success depends on our ability to successfully compete with other technology firms in attracting and retaining key technical and management personnel. If we are unable to identify, hire and retain highly qualified technical and managerial personnel, our business could be harmed.
