NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Note 1:  Background and Basis of Presentation

      The accompanying consolidated financial statements as of and for the quarter and six months ended June 29, 2001 include the accounts of ON Semiconductor Corporation, its wholly-owned subsidiaries, and the majority-owned subsidiaries that it controls (collectively, the “Company”). An investment in a majority-owned joint venture that the Company does not control is accounted for on the equity method. Investments in companies that represent less than 20% of the related voting stock are accounted for on the cost basis. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

      The accompanying unaudited financial information reflects all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. Such financial information should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2000 and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 30, 2001.

      The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

      On August 4, 1999, the Company was recapitalized and certain related transactions were effected (the “Recapitalization”) pursuant to an agreement among ON Semiconductor Corporation, its primary domestic operating subsidiary, Semiconductor Components Industries, LLC (“SCI LLC”), Motorola and affiliates of Texas Pacific Group. As a result of the Recapitalization, affiliates of Texas Pacific Group owned approximately 91% and Motorola owned approximately 9% of the outstanding common stock of the Company. In addition, as part of these transactions, Texas Pacific Group received 1,500 shares and Motorola received 590 shares of the Company’s mandatorily redeemable preferred stock with a liquidation value of $209 million plus accrued and unpaid dividends. Motorola also received a $91 million junior subordinated note issued by SCI LLC. Cash payments to Motorola in connection with the Recapitalization were financed through equity investments by affiliates of Texas Pacific Group totaling $337.5 million, borrowings totaling $740.5 million under the Company’s $875 million senior bank facilities and the issuance of $400 million of 12% senior subordinated notes due August 2009. Because Texas Pacific Group’s affiliates did not acquire substantially all of the Company’s common stock, the basis of the Company’s assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes was not impacted by the Recapitalization.

      On May 3, 2000, the Company completed the initial public offering (“IPO”) of its common stock, selling 34.5 million shares with an issue price of $16 per share. Net proceeds from the IPO (after deducting issuance costs) were approximately $514.8 million. The net proceeds were used to redeem all outstanding preferred stock (including accrued dividends), redeem a portion of the senior subordinated notes and prepay a portion of the loans outstanding under the senior bank facilities.

      As described above, the Company utilized a portion of the net proceeds from its IPO to redeem a portion of its senior subordinated notes and prepay a portion of the loans outstanding under its senior bank facilities. In connection therewith, the Company incurred prepayment penalties and redemption premiums of $17.3 million and wrote off $11.9 million of debt issuance costs. These amounts, totaling $29.2 million ($17.5 million or $0.11 per share, net of income taxes), have been classified as an extraordinary loss in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations for the quarter and six months ended July 1, 2000.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

Note 2:  Cumulative Effect of Accounting Change

      Effective January 1, 2001, the Company changed its accounting method for recognizing revenue on sales to distributors. Recognition of revenue and related gross profit on sales to distributors is now deferred until the distributor resells the product. Deferred income on sales to distributors was $136.1 million at June 29, 2001.

      Management of the Company believes that this accounting change is to a preferable method because it better aligns reported results with, focuses the Company on, and allows investors to better understand end user demand for the products the Company sells through distribution. This revenue recognition policy is commonly used in the semiconductor industry.

      The cumulative effect of the accounting change for periods prior to January 1, 2001 was a charge of $155.2 million ($116.4 million or $0.67 per share, net of income taxes) and was recorded in the six months ended June 29, 2001. The accounting change resulted in a reduction of the Company’s net loss in the six months ended June 29, 2001 of $26.4 million, or $0.15 per share.

      The estimated pro forma effects of the accounting change are as follows (in millions, except per share amounts):

      On April 3, 2000, the Company acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of Cherry Semiconductor Corporation (“Cherry”) for approximately $250 million in cash, which was financed with cash on hand and borrowings of $220 million under the Company’s senior bank facilities. Cherry, which was renamed Semiconductor Components Industries of Rhode Island, Inc., designs and manufactures analog and mixed signal integrated circuits for the power management and automotive markets, and had revenues for its fiscal year ended February 29, 2000 of $129.1 million.

      The Cherry acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting and as a result, the purchase price plus related costs was allocated to the estimated fair value of assets acquired and liabilities

assumed at the time of the acquisition based on independent appraisals and management estimates as follows (in millions):

         
Fair value of tangible net assets
  $ 71.3  
Developed technology
    59.3  
In-process research and development
    26.9  
Assembled work force
    10.0  
Excess of purchase price over net assets acquired (goodwill)
    85.7  
     
 
    $ 253.2  
     
 

      Developed technology and assembled workforce are being amortized on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives of five years while goodwill is being amortized over an estimated life of ten years.

      The fair value of the acquired in-process research and development was determined using the income approach, which discounts expected future cash flows to present value. Significant assumptions that had to be made in using this approach included revenue and operating margin projections and determination of the applicable discount rate. The fair value of the acquired in-process research and development was based on sales forecasts and cost assumptions projected to be achievable by Cherry on a standalone basis. Operating margins were based on cost of goods sold and selling, general, and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues. All projected revenue and cost information was based on historical results and trends and do not include any synergies or cost savings that may result from the acquisition. The rate used to discount future projected cash flows resulting from the acquired in-process research and development was 20 percent which was derived from a weighted average cost of capital analysis adjusted upward to reflect additional risks inherent in the development life cycle.

      At the date of acquisition, the in-process research and development had not yet reached technological feasibility and no alternative future uses had been identified. Accordingly, these costs were expensed as of the acquisition date. The expected release dates for the products incorporating the acquired technology vary, but the Company expects that such products will be completed and begin to generate cash flows in 2001. The ultimate development of these technologies remains a significant risk due to the remaining efforts required to achieve technical viability, rapidly changing customer markets, uncertain standards for new products and significant competitive threats from numerous companies. The nature of the efforts to develop the acquired technology into commercially viable products consists principally of design and development, engineering and testing activities necessary to determine that the product can meet market expectations, including functionality and technical requirements. Failure to bring these products to market in a timely manner could result in a loss of market share, or a lost opportunity to capitalize on emerging markets, and could have a material adverse impact on our business and operating results.

      The forecasts used in valuing the acquired in-process research and development were based upon assumptions the Company believes are reasonable; however, such assumptions may be incomplete or inaccurate, and unanticipated events and circumstances are likely to occur. There can be no assurance that the underlying assumptions used to estimate expected project sales or profits, or the events associated with such projects, will transpire as estimated. For these reasons, actual results may vary from the projected results.

      Cherry’s results of operations have been included in the Company’s consolidated results from the date of acquisition. The following pro forma disclosures present the Company’s results of operations for the six

Note 5:  Restructuring and Other Charges

      In June 2001, the Company recorded a $95.8 million charge to cover costs associated with a worldwide restructuring program. This program includes phasing out of manufacturing operations at the Company’s Guadalajara, Mexico facility, transferring certain manufacturing activities performed at the Company’s Aizu, Japan and Seremban, Malaysia facilities to other Company-owned facilities or to third party contractors and consolidation of other operations. The charge includes $43.6 million to cover employee separation costs associated with the termination of approximately 3,200 employees, asset impairments of $42.2 million and $10.0 million of other costs primarily related to facility closures and contract terminations. The asset impairments were charged directly against the related assets. Employee separation costs included $1.1 million of non-cash charges associated with the acceleration of vesting of stock options for terminated employees and $6.1 million for additional pension charges related to terminated employees. As of June 29, 2001, the remaining liability relating to this restructuring was $38.6 million. As of June 29, 2001, 532 employees have been terminated under this restructuring plan.

      In March 2001, the Company recorded a $34.2 million charge to cover costs associated with a worldwide restructuring program involving manufacturing locations as well as selling and administrative functions. The charge included $31.3 million to cover employee separation costs associated with the termination of approximately 1,100 employees and $2.9 million for asset impairments that were charged directly against the related assets. As of June 29, 2001, the remaining liability relating to this restructuring was $3.2 million. As of June 29, 2001, 610 employees have been terminated under this restructuring plan.

      Also in March 2001, the Company recorded a $3.8 million charge to cover costs associated with the separation of one of the Company’s executive officers. In connection with the separation, the Company paid

the former executive officer $1.9 million. In addition, the Company agreed to accelerate the vesting of his remaining stock options and to allow such options to remain exercisable for the remainder of their ten-year term. The Company recorded a non-cash charge of $1.9 million related to the modification of these options.

      In March 2000, the Company recorded a $4.8 million charge to cover costs associated with a restructuring program at its manufacturing facility in Guadalajara, Mexico. The charge included $3.2 million to cover employee separation costs associated with the termination of approximately 500 employees and $1.6 million for asset impairments that were charged directly against the related assets. As of June 29, 2001 there was no remaining liability related to the 2000 restructuring program.

Note 6:  Sale of Investment in Joint Venture

      The Company had a 50% interest in Semiconductor Miniatures Products Malaysia Sdn. Bhd. (“SMP”). As a part of the joint venture agreement, the Company’s joint venture partner, Philips Semiconductors International B.V. (“Philips”), had the right to purchase the Company’s interest in SMP between January 2001 and July 2002. On February 1, 2001, Philips exercised its purchase right, acquiring the Company’s 50% interest in SMP. This transaction resulted in proceeds of approximately $20.4 million and a pre-tax gain of approximately $3.1 million.

Note 7:  Earnings per Common Share

      Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net income (loss) available for common stock (net income (loss) adjusted for dividends accrued on the Company’s redeemable preferred stock) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share incorporates the incremental impact of shares issuable upon the assumed exercise of stock options. The number of incremental shares from the assumed exercise of stock options is calculated by applying the treasury stock method. For the

Note 8:  Long-Term Debt

      At June 29, 2001, the Company had $994.3 million outstanding under its senior bank facilities. The senior bank facilities require the Company to maintain compliance with certain covenants and restrictions. At June 29, 2001, the Company was not in compliance with covenants requiring the maintenance of minimum interest expense and leverage coverage ratios. The Company has received a waiver in respect of such noncompliance at June 29, 2001 (and in respect of any future noncompliance with such covenants through December 31, 2002). In connection with such waiver, the Company has amended its senior bank facilities. The key terms of this amendment are as follows:

  •  Minimum interest expense coverage ratio and leverage coverage ratio requirements for periods between January 31, 2003 through December 31, 2005 have been reduced, maximum capital expenditure limits have been reduced and covenants requiring the maintenance of a minimum cash and cash equivalent

  balance until certain financial ratios are achieved and minimum EBITDA levels through December 31, 2002 have been added;
 
  •  The Company is required to obtain $100 million through an equity investment from its principal shareholder, an affiliate of Texas Pacific Group, by September 7, 2001;
 
  •  The interest rate spread on outstanding borrowings will increase to 3.0% with respect to alternate base rate loans and 4.0% with respect to Eurodollar loans. Payment of such interest will be required on a monthly basis. Additionally, a supplemental interest charge of 2.0% will accrue through September 30, 2001, increasing to 3.0% for the period October 1, 2001 through March 31, 2003. Fifty percent of such supplemental interest must be paid by March 31, 2003 with the balance due by June 30, 2003. To the extent that the full amount of such supplemental interest is not paid on March 31, 2003, additional supplemental interest for the period of March 31, 2003 through June 30, 2003 will accrue at a rate of 3.0% on a portion of the outstanding borrowings, which portion is equal to the percentage of supplemental interest accrued but unpaid on March  31, 2003. Such additional supplemental interest will be due by June 30, 2002. As a result of these amendments, the Company’s interest expense on an annual basis is expected to increase by approximately $29.5 million; and
 
  •  Certain mandatory prepayment provisions contained in the original agreement have been revised.

      The Company believes that, pursuant to its current business plans, it will be able to maintain compliance with the revised covenants as outlined above.

      In connection with the Recapitalization, the Company and SCI LLC, (collectively, the “Issuers”), issued $400.0 million senior subordinated notes due 2009. As of June 29, 2001, $260.0 million of the senior subordinated notes were outstanding. The Company’s other domestic subsidiaries (collectively, the “Guarantor Subsidiaries”) have jointly and severally, irrevocably and unconditionally guaranteed the Issuers’ obligations under the senior subordinated notes. The Guarantor Subsidiaries include holding companies whose net assets consist primarily of investments in the Company’s foreign joint ventures in China and the Czech Republic and nominal equity interests in certain of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries as well as Semiconductor Components Industries of Rhode Island, Inc. The foreign joint ventures and the Company’s foreign subsidiaries (collectively, the “Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries”) themselves are not guarantors of the senior subordinated notes.

      The Company does not believe that the separate financial statements and other disclosures concerning the Guarantor Subsidiaries provide any additional information that would be material to investors in making an investment decision. Condensed consolidating financial information for the Issuers, the Guarantor Subsidiaries and the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries follows (in millions):

Note 9:  Commitments and Contingencies

      The Company is currently involved in a variety of legal matters that arose in the normal course of business. Based on information currently available, management does not believe that the ultimate resolution of these matters, including the matters described below, will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

      In July 2001 two purported stockholder class actions (“Shareholder Litigation”) were filed against the Company, certain officers and directors of the Company, and five investment banking firms who acted as underwriters in connection with our IPO in April 2000. The Shareholder Litigation was filed in the United States District Court — Southern District of New York and generally alleges that the IPO offering documents failed to disclose: (1) certain underwriter fees and commissions and (2) underwriter tie-in and other arrangements with certain customers that impacted the price of the Company’s stock in the aftermarket. The Shareholder Litigation is in the initial phases and the Company intends to vigorously defend against the suits.

Note 11:  Recent Accounting Pronouncements

      Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” as amended, which establishes standards for the accounting and reporting for derivative instruments, including derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and hedging activities became effective for the Company as of January 1, 2001.

      The Company’s interest rate swaps in effect at January 1, 2001 have been designated as cash flow hedges, are measured at fair value and recorded as assets or liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet. Upon the adoption of SFAS 133, the Company recorded an after-tax charge of approximately $3.4 million to accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) as of January 1, 2001. This charge consists of an approximate $2.1 million adjustment necessary to record the Company’s interest rate swaps in the consolidated balance sheet at their estimated fair values as well as the write-off of an approximate $3.5 million deferred charge (included in other assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2000) relating to the payment made in December 2000 for the early termination of an interest rate protection agreement relating to a portion of the amounts outstanding under the Company’s senior bank facilities, both before income taxes of approximately $2.2 million. The Company recorded a $2.6 million after-tax charge to accumulated other comprehensive income during the first six months of 2001 to adjust its cash flow hedge to fair-value at June 29, 2001

      The Company uses forward foreign currency contracts to reduce its overall exposure to the effects of foreign currency fluctuations on its results of operations and cash flows. The fair value of these derivative instruments are recorded as assets or liabilities with gains and losses offsetting the gains and losses on the

underlying assets or liabilities. The adoption of SFAS 133 did not impact the Company’s accounting and reporting for these derivative instruments.

      In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”. SFAS No. 142 primarily addresses the accounting for goodwill and intangible assets subsequent to their acquisition. Goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets will no longer be amortized, but are required to be tested for impairment annually or whenever events or circumstances indicate that the related carrying amount exceeds fair value. SFAS No. 142 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001 except for goodwill acquired in a business acquisition occurring after June 30, 2001, which will not be amortized. At June 29, 2001, the Company had unamortized goodwill of $75.0 million related to the Cherry acquisition that will be impacted by this new standard. Annual goodwill amortization approximates $8.6 million, which will be discontinued in 2002 as a result of this standard.

Item 2.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

      You should read the following discussion in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto as of and for the year ended December 31, 2000 included in our Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 30, 2001. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from the results contemplated by these forward-looking statements due to certain factors, including those discussed below and elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.

      ON Semiconductor is a global supplier of high performance broadband and power management integrated circuits and standard semiconductors used in numerous advanced devices ranging from high speed fiber optic networking equipment to the precise power management functions found in today’s advanced portable electronics.

      Recent developments. During the first six months of 2001, we experienced slowing demand and pricing pressures for our products as customers delayed or cancelled bookings in order to manage their inventories in line with incoming business. As we enter the third quarter of 2001, market demand continues to be soft and visibility to our customers’ expected requirements remains poor. We expect revenues in the third quarter of 2001 to be down slightly from the second quarter.

      In the fourth quarter of 2000 we began to implement a phased cost reduction plan (“the Plan”), which includes strict expense controls, reduced capital expenditures, restructuring of our manufacturing operations and reductions in selling and administrative costs. As a result of these efforts, we incurred restructuring and other charges of $95.8 million in the second quarter of 2001 and a total of $133.8 million in the first six months of 2001. The three principal elements of the Plan that were implemented in the second quarter of 2001 were: accelerating a five-year manufacturing restructure plan into a two-year plan; reducing our selling and administrative costs; and aggressively focusing on liquidity. We expect the actions implemented in the second quarter of 2001, the savings from which will not be fully realized until 2002, will ultimately generate annualized savings of approximately $300 million. When combined with the restructure and cost reduction actions taken in the first quarter of 2001 and the fourth quarter of 2000, we expect the Plan to generate total savings of $190 million in 2001, and to ultimately generate annualized savings of approximately $400 million.

      At June 29, 2001, we had $994.3 million outstanding under our senior bank facilities. The senior bank facilities require us to maintain compliance with certain covenants and restrictions. At June 29, 2001, we were not in compliance with covenants requiring the maintenance of minimum interest expense and leverage coverage ratios. We have received a waiver in respect of such noncompliance at June 29, 2001 (and in respect of any future noncompliance with such covenants through December 31, 2002). In connection with such waiver, we have amended our senior bank facilities. The key terms of this amendment are as follows:

•  Minimum interest expense coverage ratio and leverage coverage ratio requirements for periods between January 31, 2003 through December 31, 2005 have been reduced, maximum capital expenditure limits have been reduced and covenants requiring the maintenance of a minimum cash and cash equivalent balance until certain financial ratios are achieved and minimum EBITDA levels through December 31, 2002 have been added;
 
•  We are required to obtain $100 million through an equity investment from our principal shareholder, an affiliate of Texas Pacific Group, by September 7, 2001;
 
•  The interest rate spread on outstanding borrowings will increase to 3.0% with respect to alternate base rate loans and 4.0% with respect to Eurodollar loans. Payment of such interest will be required on a monthly basis. Additionally, a supplemental interest charge of 2.0% will accrue through September 30, 2001, increasing to 3.0% for the period October 1, 2001 through March 31, 2003. Fifty percent of such supplemental interest must be paid by March 31, 2003 with the balance due by June  30, 2003. To the extent that the full amount of such supplemental interest is not paid on March 31, 2003, additional supplemental interest for the period of March 31, 2003 through June 30, 2003 will accrue at a rate of 3.0% on a portion of the outstanding borrowings, which portion is equal to the percentage of supplemental interest accrued but unpaid on March 31, 2003. Such additional supplemental interest will be due by June 30, 2002. As a result

of these amendments, our interest expense on an annual basis is expected to increase by approximately $29.5 million; and
 
•  Certain mandatory prepayment provisions contained in the original agreement have been revised.

      We believe that, pursuant to our current business plans, we will be able to maintain compliance with the revised covenants as outlined above.

      Recapitalization and Initial Public Offering. Immediately prior to our August 4, 1999 recapitalization (the “Recapitalization”), we were a wholly-owned subsidiary of Motorola. We held and continue to hold, through direct and indirect subsidiaries, substantially all of the assets and operations of the Semiconductor Components Group of Motorola’s Semiconductor Products Sector (“SCG”). As part of our Recapitalization, affiliates of the Texas Pacific Group purchased our common shares from Motorola for $337.5 million, and we redeemed common stock held by Motorola for a total of approximately $952 million. As a result, Texas Pacific Group’s affiliates owned approximately 91% and Motorola owned approximately 9% of our voting common stock. To finance a portion of the Recapitalization, Semiconductor Components Industries, LLC (“SCI LLC”), our primary domestic operating subsidiary, borrowed $740.5 million under senior secured bank facilities, we and SCI LLC issued $400 million of senior subordinated notes and SCI LLC issued a $91 million junior subordinated note to Motorola. We also issued mandatorily redeemable preferred stock with a total liquidation preference of $209 million to Motorola and Texas Pacific Group’s affiliates. Because Texas Pacific Group’s affiliates did not acquire substantially all of SCG’s common stock, the basis of SCG’s assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes was not impacted by our Recapitalization. At the time of the Recapitalization, Motorola agreed to provide us with transition and manufacturing services in order to facilitate our transition to a stand-alone company independent of Motorola.

      On May 3, 2000, we completed the initial public offering of our common stock (the “IPO”), selling 34.5 million shares with an issue price of $16 per share. Net proceeds from the IPO (after deducting issuance costs) were approximately $514.8 million. The net proceeds were used to redeem all outstanding preferred stock (including accrued dividends), redeem a portion of the senior subordinated notes and prepay a portion of the loans outstanding under the senior bank facilities.

      As described above, we utilized a portion of the net proceeds from our IPO to redeem a portion of our senior subordinated notes and prepay a portion of the loans outstanding under our senior bank facilities. In connection therewith, we incurred prepayment penalties and redemption premiums of $17.3 million and wrote off $11.9 million of debt issuance costs. These amounts, totaling $29.2 million ($17.5 million or $0.11 per share, net of income taxes), have been classified as an extraordinary loss in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations for the quarter and six months ended July 1, 2000.

      Acquisition. On April 3, 2000, we acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of Cherry Semiconductor Corporation (“Cherry”) for approximately $250 million in cash, which was financed with cash on hand and borrowings of $220 million under our senior bank facilities. Cherry, which was renamed Semiconductor Components Industries of Rhode Island, Inc., designs and manufactures analog and mixed signal integrated circuits for the power management and automotive markets, and had revenues for its fiscal year ended February 29, 2000 of $129.1 million.

      The Cherry acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting and as a result, the purchase price plus related costs was allocated to the estimated fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the time of the acquisition based on independent appraisals and management estimates as follows (in millions):

         
Fair value of tangible net assets
  $ 71.3  
Developed technology
    59.3  
In-process research and development
    26.9  
Assembled work force
    10.0  
Excess of purchase price over net assets acquired (goodwill)
    85.7  
     
 
    $ 253.2

Table of Contents

      Developed technology and assembled workforce are being amortized on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives of five years while goodwill is being amortized over an estimated life of ten years.

      The fair value of the acquired in-process research and development was determined using the income approach, which discounts expected future cash flows to present value. Significant assumptions that had to be made in using this approach included revenue and operating margin projections and determination of the applicable discount rate. The fair value of the acquired in-process research and development was based on sales forecasts and cost assumptions projected to be achievable by Cherry on a standalone basis. Operating margins were based on cost of goods sold and selling, general, and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues. All projected revenue and cost information was based on historical results and trends and do not include any synergies or cost savings that may result from the acquisition. The rate used to discount future projected cash flows resulting from the acquired in-process research and development was 20 percent which was derived from a weighted average cost of capital analysis adjusted upward to reflect additional risks inherent in the development life cycle.

      At the date of acquisition, the in-process research and development had not yet reached technological feasibility and no alternative future uses had been identified. Accordingly, these costs were expensed as of the acquisition date. The expected release dates for the products incorporating the acquired technology vary, but we expect that such products will be completed and begin to generate cash flows in 2001. The ultimate development of these technologies remains a significant risk due to the remaining efforts required to achieve technical viability, rapidly changing customer markets, uncertain standards for new products and significant competitive threats from numerous companies. The nature of the efforts to develop the acquired technology into commercially viable products consists principally of design and development, engineering and testing activities necessary to determine that the product can meet market expectations, including functionality and technical requirements. Failure to bring these products to market in a timely manner could result in a loss of market share, or a lost opportunity to capitalize on emerging markets, and could have a material adverse impact on our business and operating results.

      The forecasts used in valuing the acquired in-process research and development were based upon assumptions we believe are reasonable; however, such assumptions may be incomplete or inaccurate, and unanticipated events and circumstances are likely to occur. There can be no assurance that the underlying assumptions used to estimate expected project sales or profits, or the events associated with such projects, will transpire as estimated. For these reasons, actual results may vary from the projected results.

      Cherry’s results of operations have been included in our consolidated results from the date of acquisition. The following pro forma disclosures present the Company’s results of operations for the six months ended July 1, 2000 as if we had acquired Cherry as of January 1, 2000 (in millions, except per share data):

         
Total revenues
  $ 1,073.7  
Net income before extraordinary loss
  $ 38.0  
Net income
  $ 20.5  
Diluted earnings per share before extraordinary loss
  $ 0.19  
Diluted earnings per share
  $ 0.08  

      These amounts include the results of Cherry for the first quarter of 2000 and are adjusted to reflect interest and amortization charges that would have occurred had the purchase taken place on January 1, 2000. The amounts are based upon certain assumptions and estimates, and do not reflect any benefit from any cost savings which might be achieved from combined operations. The pro forma results are not indicative of the actual results that would have occurred had the acquisition been consummated as of January 1, 2000.

Results of Operations

      Cumulative effect of accounting change. Effective January 1, 2001, we changed our accounting method for recognizing revenue on sales to distributors. Recognition of revenue and related gross profit on sales to distributors is now deferred until the distributor resells the product. Deferred income on sales to distributors was $136.1 million at June 29, 2001.

21


Table of Contents

      We believe that this accounting change is to a preferable method because it better aligns reported results with, focuses us on, and allows investors to better understand end user demand for the products we sell through distribution. This revenue recognition policy is commonly used in the semiconductor industry.

      The cumulative effect of the accounting change for periods prior to January 1, 2001 was a charge of $155.2 million ($116.4 million or $0.67 per share, net of income taxes) and was recorded in the six months ended June 29, 2001. The accounting change resulted in a reduction of our net loss in the six months ended June 29, 2001 of $26.4 million, or $0.15 per share.

      Earnings per common share. Our diluted earnings per share on an actual and adjusted basis for the quarter and six months ended June 29, 2001, are as follows:

      Total revenues. Total revenues decreased $205.7 million, or 39.8%, to $310.7 million in the second quarter of 2001 from $516.4 million in the second quarter of 2000, due to reduced demand for our products resulting from the recent economic downturn and actions taken by our customers to manage their inventories in line with incoming business and due to the phasing out of the foundry revenues to Motorola.

      Net product revenues. Net product revenues decreased $189.6 million, or 38.2%, to $307.3 million in the second quarter of 2001 from $496.9 million in the second quarter of 2000. The decrease occurred in all of our major product families. Approximately 63% of this decrease was due to reduced volume with the remainder due to reductions in selling prices, partially offset by increases due to changes in our product mix. Net revenues for standard analog products, which accounted for 28.9% of net product revenues in the second quarter of 2001, decreased 35.2% compared to the second quarter of 2000. Net revenues from broadband products, which accounted for 10.3% of net product revenues in the second quarter of 2001 decreased 61.8%

23


Table of Contents

from the second quarter of 2000. Net revenues for discrete and standard logic products, which accounted for 60.8% of net product revenues in the second quarter of 2001, decreased 32.6% compared to the second quarter of 2000.

      Approximately 40%, 37% and 23% of our net product revenues in the second quarter of 2001 were derived from the Americas, Asia/ Pacific and Europe (including the Middle East), respectively, compared to 49%, 31% and 20%, respectively, in the second quarter of 2000.

      Foundry revenues. Foundry revenues decreased $16.1 million, or 82.6%, to $3.4 million in the second quarter of 2001 from $19.5 million in the second quarter of 2000. These foundry revenues are a result of agreements made with Motorola during our separation. We expect that these revenues will continue to decline in the future. Motorola continues to be one of our largest original equipment manufacturer (OEM) customers.

      Cost of sales. Cost of sales decreased $82.2 million, or 24.3%, to $255.6 million in the second quarter of 2001 from $337.8 million in the second quarter of 2000, primarily as a result of decreased sales volume.

      Gross profit. Gross profit (computed as total revenues less cost of sales) decreased $123.5 million, or 69.1%, to $55.1 million in the second quarter of 2001 from $178.6 million in the second quarter of 2000. As a percentage of total revenues, gross margin declined to 17.7% (17.8% for product gross margin) in the second quarter of 2001 from 34.6% (35.5% for product gross margin) in the second quarter of 2000. The decline in gross profit was primarily due to lower selling prices, along with lower factory utilization resulting from lower customer demand.

  Operating expenses

      Research and development. Research and development costs increased $5.8 million, or 33.9%, to $22.9 million in the second quarter of 2001 from $17.1 million in the second quarter of 2000, primarily as a result of our efforts to continue to develop our power management and broadband portfolios. As a percentage of net product revenues, research and development costs increased to 7.5% in the second quarter of 2001 from 3.4% in the second quarter of 2000 because of decreased sales demand accompanied with increased spending on new product development. We introduced 87 new products in the second quarter of 2001. The main emphasis of our new product development is in power management and broadband applications with eighty percent of our overall research and development investment targeted in these areas. Our long-term target for research and development costs is 5-6% of revenues.

      Selling and marketing. Selling and marketing expenses decreased by $5.4 million, or 20.6%, to $20.8 million in the second quarter of 2001 from $26.2 million in the second quarter of 2000 as a result of our restructuring actions. As a percentage of net product revenues, these costs increased to 6.8% in the second quarter of 2001 from 5.3% in the second quarter of 2000 as a result of decreased net product revenues offset by cost savings resulting from our restructuring actions.

      General and administrative. General and administrative expenses decreased by $25.6 million, or 43.0% to $34 million in the second quarter of 2001 from $59.6 million in the second quarter of 2000, as a result of cost reduction actions and lower discretionary spending. As a percentage of net product revenues, these costs decreased to 11.1% in the second quarter of 2001 from 12.0% in the second quarter 2000.

      Amortization of goodwill and other intangibles. Amortization of goodwill and other intangibles was $5.6 million in second quarter of 2001 compared to $5.5 million for the second quarter of 2000. The amortization relates to the intangible assets that were acquired with Cherry in the second quarter of 2000, including amounts related to developed technology, assembled workforce and goodwill.

      Restructuring and other charges. In June 2001, we recorded a $95.8 million charge to cover costs associated with a worldwide restructuring program. This program includes phasing out of manufacturing operations at our Guadalajara, Mexico facility, transferring certain manufacturing activities performed at our Aizu, Japan and Seremban, Malaysia facilities to other Company-owned facilities or to third party contractors and consolidation of other operations. The charge includes $43.6 million to cover employee separation costs associated with the termination of approximately 3,200 employees, asset impairments of $42.2 million and

24


Table of Contents

$10.0 million of other costs primarily related to facility closures and contract terminations. The asset impairments were charged directly against the related assets. Employee separation costs included $1.1 million of non-cash charges associated with the acceleration of vesting of stock options for terminated employees and $6.1 million for additional pension charges related to terminated employees. As of June 29, 2001, the remaining liability relating to this restructuring was $38.6 million. As of June 29, 2001, 532 employees have been terminated under this restructuring plan.

      Operating income (loss). Operating income (loss) decreased $167.3 million, to a $124.0 million operating loss in the second quarter of 2001 compared to operating income of $43.3 million in the second quarter of 2000. This decrease was due to decreased net product revenues, reduced gross margins and costs associated with our worldwide restructuring program. We expect that the cost reduction plan that we have implemented will result in savings of approximately $190 million in 2001 and will ultimately generate annualized savings of approximately $400 million. Excluding restructuring and other charges, the operating loss for the quarter ended June 29, 2001 would have been $28.2 million compared to operating income of $43.3 million for the quarter ended July 1, 2000.

      Interest expense. Interest expense decreased $4.1 million, or 12.1% to $29.7 million in the second quarter of 2001 from $33.8 million in the second quarter of 2000. The decrease was due the redemption of a portion of the senior subordinated notes and prepayment of a portion of the loans outstanding under the senior bank facilities with the proceeds from our IPO in 2000, partially offset by interest related to the $125.0 million drawn on our revolving line of credit during second quarter of 2001. As a result of the amendments to our senior bank facilities (See “Recent developments”), our interest expense on an annual basis is expected to increase by approximately $29.5 million.

      Equity in earnings of joint ventures. Equity in earnings of joint ventures decreased $0.9 million to $1.5 million in the second quarter of 2001 from $2.4 million in the second quarter of 2000, due primarily to decreased capacity utilization at manufacturing facilities at our Chinese joint venture resulting from the decrease in semiconductor market demand. The decrease is also attributable to the February 2001 sale of our interest in our SMP joint venture.

      Minority interests. Minority interests represent the portion of net income (loss) of two Czech joint ventures attributable to the minority owners of each joint venture. We consolidate these joint ventures in our financial statements. Minority interests were $0 in the second quarter of 2001 compared to $0.5 million in the second quarter of 2000, as the two Czech joint ventures operated near break even in the second quarter of 2001.

      Income tax (provision) benefit. The income tax (provision) benefit was $0 in the second quarter of 2001 compared with an income tax provision of $10.1 million in the second quarter of 2000. The 2001 amount was attributable to the net effect of deferred tax benefits recognized for operating losses incurred during the quarter outside of the U.S. offset by a valuation allowance established for such losses incurred in the U.S. The valuation allowance resulted from our decision to limit the recognition of such deferred tax benefits to the amount that could be recovered via carry-back. It should be noted that a significant portion of our second quarter 2001 operating loss was incurred in a country with a 0% tax rate and, therefore, no future tax benefits are available.

      Total revenues. Total revenues decreased $293.0 million, or 30.4%, to $671.2 million in the first six months of 2001 from $964.2 million in the first six months of 2000, due to reduced demand for our products resulting from the recent economic downturn and actions taken by our customers to manage their inventories in line with incoming business and due to the phasing out of foundry revenues to Motorola.

      Net product revenues. Net product revenues decreased $245.1 million, or 27.0%, to $664.3 million in the first six months of 2001 from $909.4 million in the first six months of 2000. The decrease occurred in all of our major product families. Approximately 53% of this decrease was due to reduced volume with the remainder due to reductions in selling prices, partially offset by increases due to changes in our product mix. Net revenues for standard analog products, which accounted for 28.2% of net product revenues in the first six months of 2001, decreased 17.6% compared to the first six months of 2000. Net revenues from broadband products, which accounted for 12.8% of net product revenues in the first six months of 2001 decreased 42.4%

from the second quarter of 2000. Net revenues for discrete and standard logic products, which accounted for 59.0% of net product revenues in the first six months of 2001, decreased 26.7% compared to the second quarter of 2000.

      Approximately 42%, 35% and 23% of our net product revenues in the first six months of 2001 were derived from the Americas, Asia/ Pacific and Europe (including the Middle East), respectively, compared to 47%, 32% and 21%, respectively, in the first six months of 2000.

      Foundry revenues. Foundry revenues decreased $47.9 million, or 87.4%, to $6.9 million in the first six months of 2001 from $54.8 million in the first six months of 2000. These foundry revenues are a result of agreements made with Motorola during our separation. We expect that these revenues will continue to decline in the future. Motorola continues to be one of our largest original equipment manufacturer (OEM) customers.

      Cost of sales. Cost of sales decreased $116.2 million, or 18.0%, to $529.5 million in the first six months of 2001 from $645.7 million in the first six months of 2000, primarily as a result of decreased sales volume.

      Gross profit. Gross profit (computed as total revenues less cost of sales) decreased $176.8 million, or 55.5%, to $141.7 million in the first six months of 2001 from $318.5 million in the first six months of 2000. As a percentage of total revenues, gross margin declined to 21.1% (21.0% for product gross margin) in the first six months of 2001 from 33.0% (34.3% for product gross margin) in the first six months of 2000. The decline in gross profit was primarily due to lower selling prices, along with lower factory utilization resulting from lower customer demand.

  Operating expenses

      Research and development. Research and development costs increased $17.5 million, or 61.8%, to $45.8 million in the first six months of 2001 from $28.3 million in the first six months of 2000, primarily as a result of our efforts to continue to develop our power management and broadband portfolios. As a percentage of net product revenues, research and development costs increased to 6.9% in the first six months of 2001 from 3.1% in the first six months of 2000 because of decreased sales demand accompanied with increased spending on new product development. We introduced 176 new products in the first six months of 2001. The main emphasis of our new product development is in power management and broadband applications with eighty percent of our overall research and development investment targeted in these areas. Our long-term target for research and development costs is 5-6% of revenues.

      Selling and marketing. Selling and marketing expenses decreased by $1.2 million, or 2.6%, to $44.6 million in the first six months of 2001 from $45.8 million in the first six months of 2000 as a result of our restructuring actions. As a percentage of net product revenues, these costs increased to 6.7% in the first six months of 2001 from 5.0% in the first six months of 2000 as a result of decreased net product revenues offset by cost savings resulting from our restructuring actions.

      General and administrative. General and administrative expenses decreased by $39.8 million, or 36.0% to $70.8 million in the first six months of 2001 from $110.6 million in the first six months of 2000, as a result of cost reduction actions and lower discretionary spending. As a percentage of net product revenues, these costs decreased to 10.7% in the second quarter of 2001 from 12.2% in the first six months of 2000.

      Amortization of goodwill and other intangibles. Amortization of goodwill and other intangibles was $11.4 million in first six months of 2001 compared to $5.5 million for the first six months of 2000. The amortization relates to the intangible assets that were acquired with Cherry in the second quarter of 2000, including amounts related to developed technology, assembled workforce and goodwill.

      Write-off of acquired in-process research and development. In the first six months of 2000, we incurred a $26.9 million charge for the write-off of acquired in-process research and development resulting from the Cherry acquisition. No such charges were incurred in the first six months of 2001.

      Restructuring and other charges. In June 2001, we recorded a $95.8 million charge to cover costs associated with a worldwide restructuring program. This program includes phasing out of manufacturing operations at our Guadalajara, Mexico facility, transferring certain manufacturing activities performed at our

27


Table of Contents

Aizu, Japan and Seremban, Malaysia facilities to other Company-owned facilities or to third party contractors and consolidation of other operations. The charge includes $43.6 million to cover employee separation costs associated with the termination of approximately 3,200 employees, asset impairments of $42.2 million and $10.0 million of other costs primarily related to facility closures and contract terminations. The asset impairments were charged directly against the related assets. Employee separation costs included $1.1 million of non-cash charges associated with the acceleration of vesting of stock options for terminated employees and $6.1 million for additional pension charges related to terminated employees. As of June 29, 2001, the remaining liability relating to this restructuring was $38.6 million. As of June 29, 2001, 532 employees have been terminated under this restructuring plan.

      In March 2001, we recorded a $34.2 million charge to cover costs associated with a worldwide restructuring program involving manufacturing locations as well as selling and administrative functions. The charge included $31.3 million to cover employee separation costs associated with the termination of approximately 1,100 employees and $2.9 million for asset impairments that were charged directly against the related assets. As of June 29, 2001, the remaining liability relating to this restructuring was $3.2 million. As of June 29, 2001, 610 employees have been terminated under this restructuring plan.

      Also in March 2001, we recorded a $3.8 million charge to cover costs associated with the separation of one of our executive officers. In connection with the separation, we paid the former executive officer $1.9 million. In addition, we agreed to accelerate the vesting of his remaining outstanding stock options and to allow such options to remain exercisable for the remainder of their ten-year term. We recorded a non-cash charge of $1.9 million related to the modification of these options.

      In March 2000, we recorded a $4.8 million charge to cover costs associated with a restructuring program at our manufacturing facility in Guadalajara, Mexico. The charge included $3.2 million to cover employee separation costs associated with the termination of approximately 500 employees and $1.6 million for asset impairments that were charged directly against the related assets. As of June 29, 2001 there was no remaining liability related to the 2000 restructuring program.

      A summary of activity in the our restructuring reserves for the six months ended June 30, 2001 is as follows (in millions):

      Operating income (loss). Operating income (loss) decreased $261.3 million, to a $164.7 million operating loss in the first six months of 2001 compared to operating income of $96.6 million in the first six months of 2000. This decrease was due to decreased net product revenues, reduced product margins, costs associated with our worldwide restructuring program and the amortization of goodwill and other intangibles. We expect that the cost reduction plan that we have implemented will result in savings of approximately $190 million in 2001 and will ultimately generate annualized savings of approximately $400 million. Excluding restructuring and other charges, the operating loss for the six months ended June 29, 2001 would have been $30.9 million compared to operating income of $101.4 million for the six months ended July 1, 2000.

      Interest expense. Interest expense decreased $9.6 million, or 14.0% to $58.9 million in the first six months of 2001 from $68.5 million in the first six months of 2000. The decrease was due the redemption of a portion of the senior subordinated notes and prepayment of a portion of the loans outstanding under the senior bank facilities with the proceeds from our IPO in 2000. The decrease was partially offset by interest related to the $125.0 million drawn on our revolving line of credit in May 2001. As a result of the amendments to our senior bank facilities (See “Recent developments”), our interest expense on an annual basis is expected to increase by approximately $29.5 million.

      Equity in earnings of joint ventures. Equity in earnings from joint ventures decreased $0.1 million to $2.1 million in the first six months of 2001 from $2.2 million in the first six months of 2000.

      Gain on sale of investment in joint venture. We had a 50% interest in Semiconductor Miniatures Products Malaysia Sdn. Bhd. (“SMP”). As a part of the joint venture agreement, our joint venture partner, Philips Semiconductors International B.V. (“Philips”), had the right to purchase our interest in SMP between January 2001 and July 2002. On February 1, 2001, Philips exercised its purchase right, acquiring our 50% interest in SMP. This transaction resulted in proceeds of approximately $20.4 million and a pre-tax gain of approximately $3.1 million.

      Minority interests. Minority interests represent the portion of net income (loss) of two Czech joint ventures attributable to the minority owners of each joint venture. We consolidate these joint ventures in our financial statements. Minority interests decreased $1.7 million to ($0.5) million in the first six months of 2001 compared to $1.2 million in the first six months of 2000.

      Income tax (provision) benefit. The income tax (provision) benefit was a $22.7 million benefit in the first six months of 2001 compared with an income tax provision of $25.8 million in the first six months of 2000. The 2001 amount was attributable to the net effect of deferred tax benefits recognized for operating losses incurred during the period outside of the U.S. offset by a valuation allowance established for a portion of such losses incurred in the U.S. The valuation allowance resulted from our decision to limit the recognition of such deferred tax benefits to the amount that could be recovered via carry-back. It should be noted that a significant portion of the operating loss for the first six months of 2001 was incurred in a country with a 0% tax rate and, therefore, no future tax benefits are available.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

      For the first six months of 2001, net cash used in operating activities was $71.1 million compared to $121.6 million net cash provided by operating activities for the corresponding period of 2000. This was due primarily to the net loss of $311.6 million, adjusted for non-cash charges, including depreciation and amortization of $85.4 million, $45.1 million for the impairment of property, plant and equipment and $116.4 million relating to the cumulative effect of accounting change relating to the revenue recognition on sales to distributors, offset by $24.2 million in deferred income taxes. Cash used in operating activities was also affected by changes in assets and liabilities including a decrease in accounts receivable of $113.6 and increases in other long-term liabilities and accrued interest of $3.8 and $6.3 million, respectively. These amounts were offset by an $0.5 million increase in inventories and a $13.1 million increase in other assets as well as decreases of $32.4 million in accounts payable, $7.8 million in accrued expenses, $12.9 million in income taxes payable, and $46.1 million in deferred income on sales to distributors. The decreases in accounts receivable and accounts payable were due to lower levels of sales and purchases, respectively, during the quarter.

      Net cash used in investing activities was $71.1 million for the first six months of 2001 compared to $319.8 million for the first six months of 2000. The net cash outflows consisted of $88.0 million for purchases of property, plant and equipment, $5.0 million for loans to an unconsolidated joint venture, $0.5 for investments in unconsolidated subsidiaries and $0.1 for acquisition of minority interests of our two Czech joint ventures. These outflows were partially offset by proceeds of $20.4 million related to the sale of the Company’s interest in the SMP joint venture and proceeds of $2.1 million related to sales of property, plant and equipment.

      Net cash provided by financing activities was $128.3 million for the first six months of 2001 compared to $195.7 for the first six months of 2000. Cash inflows consisted of proceeds of $125.0 million from our revolving line of credit, $3.4 million from the issuance of common stock under our employee stock purchase plan and $0.5 million from stock option exercises, offset by the payments of $0.6 for our capital lease obligation.

      At June 29, 2001, we had net deferred tax assets of $394.4 million as a result of temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Although there can be no assurance, we believe that our net deferred tax assets will be recoverable from future operations. Should business conditions worsen or continue to be depressed for an extended period, we will be required to record a valuation allowance for all or a portion of our net deferred tax assets.

      As of June 29 2001, long-term debt (including current maturities) totaled $1,389.0 million and stockholders’ equity was $24.6 million. Long-term debt included $994.3 million under our senior bank facilities (including our revolving line of credit), $260.0 million senior subordinated notes, $109.6 million in respect of our junior subordinated note, a $22.7 million note payable to a Japanese bank, and a capital lease of $2.4 million. We are required to begin making principal payments on our senior bank facilities in the third quarter of 2001.

      As of June 29, 2001, $3.8 million of our $150 million revolving facility was available, reflecting borrowings of $125.0 million and outstanding letters of credit of $21.2 million. Under certain circumstances, the terms of our credit agreements allow us to incur additional indebtedness, although there can be no assurances that we would be able to borrow on terms acceptable to us.

      At June 29, 2001, we had $994.3 million outstanding under our senior bank facilities. The senior bank facilities require us to maintain compliance with certain covenants and restrictions. At June 29, 2001, we were not in compliance with covenants requiring the maintenance of minimum interest expense and leverage coverage ratios. We received a waiver in respect of such noncompliance at June 29, 2001 (and in respect of any future noncompliance with such covenants through December 31, 2002). In connection with such waiver, we have amended our senior bank facilities. The key terms of this amendment are as follows:

  •  Minimum interest expense coverage ratio and leverage coverage ratio requirements for periods between January 31, 2003 through December 31, 2005 have been reduced, maximum capital expenditure limits have been reduced and covenants requiring the maintenance of a minimum cash and cash equivalent balance until certain financial ratios are achieved and minimum EBITDA levels through December 31, 2002 have been added;
 
  •  We are required to obtain $100 million through an equity investment from our principal shareholder, an affiliate of Texas Pacific Group, by September 7, 2001;
 
  •  The interest rate spread on outstanding borrowings will increase to 3.0% with respect to alternate base rate loans and 4.0% with respect to Eurodollar loans. Payment of such interest will be required on a monthly basis. Additionally, a supplemental interest charge of 2.0% will accrue through September 30, 2001, increasing to 3.0% for the period October 1, 2001 through March 31, 2003. Fifty percent of such supplemental interest must be paid by March 31, 2003 with the balance due by June 30, 2003. To the extent that the full amount of such supplemental interest is not paid on March 31, 2003, additional supplemental interest for the period of March 31, 2003 through June 30, 2003 will accrue at a rate of 3.0% on a portion of the outstanding borrowings, which portion is equal to the percentage of supplemental interest accrued but unpaid on March  31, 2003. Such additional supplemental interest will be due by June 30, 2002. As a result of these amendments, our interest expense on an annual basis is expected to increase by approximately $29.5 million; and
 
  •  Certain mandatory prepayment provisions contained in the original agreement have been revised.

      We believe that, pursuant to our current business plans, we will be able to maintain compliance with the revised covenants as outlined above.

      Our ability to make payments on and to refinance our indebtedness, to remain in compliance with the various restrictions and covenants found in our credit agreements and to fund working capital, capital expenditures, research and development efforts and strategic acquisitions will depend on our ability to generate cash in the future, which is subject to, among other things, our future operating performance and to general economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other conditions, some of which may be beyond our control.

      Our primary future cash needs, both in the short term and in the long term will focus on debt service and working capital. We have rescheduled our capital purchases with suppliers throughout the year and anticipate significantly reduced capital spending in the second half of 2001. We believe that cash flow from operations will be sufficient to service our indebtedness and fund our other liquidity needs for the remainder of 2001, and

could be supplemented, if necessary, with the proceeds from targeted sales of assets. As part of our business strategy, we review acquisition and divestiture opportunities and proposals on a regular basis.

      Historically, our revenues have been affected by the seasonal trends of the semiconductor and related industries. As a result of these trends, we typically experienced sales increases in the first two quarters of the year and relatively flat sales levels in the third and fourth quarters. However, over the past three years, various events have disrupted this pattern. In 1998, third quarter revenues declined, primarily as a result of the Asian economic crisis. In 1999, third and fourth quarter revenues increased due to the continuing recovery in the semiconductor market. In the fourth quarter of 2000 and the first two quarters of 2001 revenues declined due to slowing demand in the semiconductor market.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

      Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” as amended establishes standards for the accounting and reporting for derivative instruments, including derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and hedging activities became effective for us as of January 1, 2001.

      Our interest rate swaps in effect at January 1, 2001 have been designated as cash flow hedges, are measured at fair value and recorded as assets or liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet. Upon the adoption of SFAS 133 we recorded an after-tax charge of approximately $3.4 million to accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) as of January 1, 2001. This charge consists of an approximate $2.1 million adjustment necessary to record our interest rate swaps in the consolidated balance sheet at their estimated fair values as well as the write-off of an approximate $3.5 million deferred charge (included in other assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2000) relating to the payment made in December 2000 for the early termination of an interest rate protection agreement relating to a portion of the amounts outstanding under our senior bank facilities, both before income taxes of approximately $2.2 million. We recorded a $2.6 million after-tax charge to accumulated other comprehensive income during the first six months of 2001 to adjust our cash flow hedges to fair-value at June 29, 2001.

      We use forward foreign currency contracts to reduce our overall exposure to the effects of foreign currency fluctuations on our results of operations and cash flows. The fair values of these derivative instruments are recorded as assets or liabilities with gains and losses offsetting the gains and losses on the underlying assets or liabilities. The adoption of SFAS 133 did not impact our accounting and reporting for these derivative instruments.

      In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”. SFAS No. 142 primarily addresses the accounting for goodwill and intangible assets subsequent to their acquisition. Goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets will no longer be amortized, but are required to be tested for impairment annually or whenever events or circumstances indicate that the related carrying amount exceeds fair value. SFAS No. 142 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001 except for goodwill acquired in a business acquisition occurring after June 30, 2001, which will not be amortized. At June 29, 2001, we had unamortized goodwill of $75.0 million related to the Cherry acquisition that will be impacted by this new standard. Annual goodwill amortization approximates $8.6 million, which will be discontinued in 2002 as a result of this standard.

Business Risks and Forward-Looking Statements

      This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes “forward-looking statements” as that term is defined in Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Forward-looking statements are often characterized by the use of words such as “believes,” “estimates,” “expects,” “projects,” “may,” “will,” “intends,” “plans,” or “anticipates,” or by discussions of strategy, plans or intentions. All forward-looking statements in the Form 10-Q are made based on management’s current expectations and estimates, which involve risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause results to differ materially from those expressed in forward-looking statements. Among these factors are changes in overall economic conditions, the cyclical nature of the

semiconductor industry, changes in demand for our products, changes in inventories at our customers and distributors, technological and product development risks, availability of manufacturing capacity, availability of raw materials, competitors’ actions, loss of key customers, order cancellations or reduced bookings, changes in manufacturing yields, restructuring programs and the impact of such programs, control of costs and expenses, inability to reduce manufacturing and selling, general and administrative costs, litigation, risks associated with acquisitions and dispositions, changes in management, risks associated with our substantial leverage and restrictive covenants in our debt instruments (including those relating to the increased cost of servicing our debt and complying with the additional restrictions imposed as a result of the recent amendment to our senior credit facilities), and risks involving environmental or other governmental regulation. Additional factors that could affect our future operating results are described from time to time in ON Semiconductor’s Securities and Exchange Commission reports. See in particular Exhibit 99.1, entitled “Risk Factors”, in the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2000 and filed with the SEC on March 30, 2001, and subsequently filed reports. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. We assume no obligation to update such information.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

      We are exposed to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. To mitigate these risks, we utilize derivative financial instruments. We do not use derivative financial instruments for speculative or trading purposes.

      As of June 29, 2001, our long-term debt (including current maturities) totaled $1,389.0 million. We have no interest rate exposure due to rate changes for our fixed rate interest bearing debt, which totaled $392.3 million or our capital lease obligation which totaled $2.4 million. We do have interest rate exposure with respect to the $994.3 million outstanding balance on our variable interest rate senior bank facilities however, we have entered into interest rate swaps to reduce this interest rate exposure. As of June 29, 2001, we had four interest rate swaps covering exposures on $255 million of our variable interest rate debt. A 50 basis point increase in interest rates would result in increased annual interest expense of $3.7 million for the next twelve months.

      A majority of our revenue, expense and capital purchasing activities are transacted in U.S. dollars; however, as a multinational business, we also conduct these activities through transactions denominated in a variety of other currencies. We use forward foreign currency contracts to hedge firm commitments and reduce our overall exposure to the effects of currency fluctuations on our results of operations and cash flows. Gains and losses on these foreign currency exposures would generally be offset by corresponding losses and gains on the related hedging instruments. This strategy reduces, but does not eliminate, the short-term impact of foreign currency exchange rate movements. For example, changes in exchange rates may affect the foreign currency sales price of our products and can lead to increases or decreases in sales volume to the extent that the sales price of comparable products of our competitors are less or more than the sales price of our products.

PART II:  OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.  Legal Proceedings

      The Company is currently involved in a variety of legal matters that arose in the normal course of business. Based on information currently available, management does not believe that the ultimate resolution of these matters, including the matters described in the next paragraph, will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

      In July 2001 two purported stockholder class actions (“Shareholder Litigation”) were filed against us, certain of our officers and directors, and five investment banking firms who acted as underwriters in connection with our IPO in April 2000. The Shareholder Litigation was filed in the United States District Court — Southern District of New York and generally alleges that the IPO offering documents failed to disclose: (1) certain underwriter fees and commissions and (2) underwriter tie-in and other arrangements with certain customers that impacted the price of our stock in the aftermarket. The Shareholder Litigation is in the initial phases and we intend to vigorously defend against the suits.

Item 2.  Changes in Securities and Use of Proceeds

      Not Applicable.

Item 3.  Defaults Upon Senior Securities

      At June 29, 2001, we had $994.3 million outstanding under our senior bank facilities. The senior bank facilities require us to maintain compliance with certain covenants and restrictions. At June 29, 2001, we were not in compliance with covenants requiring the maintenance of minimum interest expense and leverage coverage ratios. We have received a waiver in respect of such noncompliance at June 29, 2001 (and in respect of any future noncompliance with such covenants through December 31, 2002). In connection with such waiver, we have amended our senior bank facilities. The key terms of this amendment are as follows:

  •  Minimum interest expense coverage ratio and leverage coverage ratio requirements for periods between January 31, 2003 through December 31, 2005 have been reduced, maximum capital expenditure limits have been reduced and covenants requiring the maintenance of a minimum cash and cash equivalent balance until certain financial ratios are achieved and minimum EBITDA levels through December 31, 2002 have been added;
 
  •  We are required to obtain $100 million through an equity investment from our principal shareholder, an affiliate of Texas Pacific Group, by September 7, 2001;
 
  •  The interest rate spread on outstanding borrowings will increase to 3.0% with respect to alternate base rate loans and 4.0% with respect to Eurodollar loans. Payment of such interest will be required on a monthly basis. Additionally, a supplemental interest charge of 2.0% will accrue through September 30, 2001, increasing to 3.0% for the period October 1, 2001 through March 31, 2003. Fifty percent of such supplemental interest must be paid by March 31, 2003 with the balance due by June 30, 2003. To the extent that the full amount of such supplemental interest is not paid on March 31, 2003, additional supplemental interest for the period of March 31, 2003 through June 30, 2003 will accrue at a rate of 3.0% on a portion of the outstanding borrowings, which portion is equal to the percentage of supplemental interest accrued but unpaid on March  31, 2003. Such additional supplemental interest will be due by June 30, 2002.
