Exhibit 99.3

Report of Independent Accountants

To The Board of Directors and
Stockholder of ON Semiconductor Trading, LTD.

         In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and the related consolidated statements of income, stockholder’s equity (deficit) and cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of ON Semiconductor Trading LTD and its subsidiaries (an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of ON Semiconductor Corporation) at December 31, 2001 and 2000, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2001 and for the period from October 27, 2000 through December 31, 2000 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

         The Company has extensive transactions and relationships with ON Semiconductor Corporation and its affiliates. Because of these relationships, it is possible that the terms of these transactions are not the same as those that would result from transactions among wholly unrelated parties.

         As described in Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company changed its method of accounting for sales to distributors effective January 1, 2001.

Note 1: Background and Basis of Presentation

         ON Semiconductor Trading Ltd. (the “Company” or “ON Trading”), located in Hamilton, Bermuda, is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Semiconductor Components Industries, LLC (“SCI LLC” or “Parent”), which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of ON Semiconductor Corporation (“ON Semiconductor”). ON Trading is responsible for selling ON Semiconductor’s products outside the United States, Mexico, Brazil and Puerto Rico. ON Trading performs certain functions related to sales, procurement, data aggregation, inventory management, research and development, and managing distribution scheduling. In order to function in this capacity, ON Trading entered into a cost sharing agreement with SCI, LLC during 2000. This cost sharing arrangement essentially provided ON Trading the with the right to use ON Semiconductor’s intellectual property for the purpose of manufacturing, selling, importing and exporting property outside of the United States, Mexico, Brazil and Puerto Rico.

         In October 2000, SCI LLC transferred the ownership of certain of its wholly-owned subsidiaries to the Company in exchange for 12,000 shares of the Company’s common stock which represents the entire ownership in the Company. These transactions were accounted for as the combination of companies under common control and have been reflected in the accompanying financial statements on the historical cost basis. The book value of the net assets transferred, which included $31.9 million of cash, was $40.4 million.

         The accompanying unaudited financial statements as of June 28, 2002 and for the six months ended June 29, 2001 and June 28, 2002, respectively, have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and on the same basis of presentation as the audited financial statements. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for financial statements. In opinion of the Company’s management, the interim data includes all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods. The footnote disclosures related to the interim financial information included herein are also unaudited.

Note 2: Liquidity

         During 2001, the Company incurred a net loss of $176.2 million, and the Company’s operating activities utilized $217.5 million of cash. At December 31, 2001, the Company had $33.5 million in cash and cash equivalents, a net working capital of $239.4 million, notes payable to parent of $367.9 million and a stockholder’s deficit of $113.9 million.

         The Company’s ability to fund working capital, capital expenditures, research and development efforts and strategic initiatives will depend on its ability to generate cash in the future, which is subject to, among other things, its future operating performance and to general economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other conditions, some of which may be beyond its control. The Company has extensive transactions and relationships with its affiliates and is also dependant on their operating performance to generate cash in the future.

         The Company’s primary cash needs, both in the short term and in the long term will focus on working capital. Although there can be no assurances, management believes that cash flow from operations coupled with existing cash and cash equivalent balances will be adequate to fund the Company’s operating and cash flow needs through December 31, 2002. To the extent that actual results or events differ from the Company’s financial projections and business plans, the Company will be reliant upon SCI LLC and ON Semiconductor, to provide additional funding.

Note 3: Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation

         The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

6


 

Use of Estimates

         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. Significant estimates have been used by management in conjunction with the measurement of valuation allowances relating to receivables and inventories; reserves for customer incentives and restructuring charges; and, the fair values of financial instruments (including derivative financial instruments). Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Cash Equivalents

         The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Inventories

         Inventories are stated at the lower of standard cost (which approximates cost on a first-in, first-out basis), or market. The Company reserves for potentially obsolete or slow moving inventories based upon a regular analysis of inventory levels on hand compared to historical and projected end user demand. General market conditions as well as the Company’s design activities can cause certain of its products to become obsolete.

Property, Plant and Equipment

         Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost and are depreciated over estimated useful lives of 3-20 years using accelerated and straight-line methods. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to operations in the year in which the expense is incurred. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the related costs and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in operations in the period realized.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

         The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the related carrying amounts may not be recoverable by comparing the carrying amount of such assets to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows associated with them. In cases where the estimated undiscounted future cash flows are less than the related carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair value of the assets. The fair value is determined based on the present value of estimated future cash flows using a discount rate commensurate with the risks involved.

Revenue Recognition

         The Company generates revenue from the sales of its semiconductor products to third party original equipment manufacturers, distributors and electronic manufacturing service providers as well as to affiliated companies. Revenues generated from sales to affiliated companies are based on intercompany pricing agreements and recognized when title and risk of loss has passed to the affiliate. As further described in Note 4, “Accounting Change”, prior to January 1, 2001, the Company recognized revenue on all semiconductor sales when title passed to the customer. Provisions were also recorded at that time for estimated sales returns from distributors as well as for other related sales costs and allowances. Effective January 1, 2001, the Company changed its revenue recognition policy with respect to distributor sales so that the related revenues are now deferred until the distributor resells the product to the end user. This change eliminated the need to provide for estimated sales returns from distributors. Deferred income on sales to distributors as reflected in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet represents the net margin (deferred revenue less associated costs of sales) on inventory on hand at our distributors at the end of the period.

Research and Development Costs

         Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.

Income Taxes

         The Company is based in Bermuda, which does not levy taxes on income. Income taxes in the accompanying consolidated financial statements relate to the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries operating outside of Bermuda.

7


 

         Income taxes are accounted for using the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which these temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is provided for those deferred tax assets for which it is more likely than not that the related benefits will not be realized.

Foreign Currencies

         Most of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries deal primarily in U.S. dollars and as a result, utilize the dollar as their functional currency. For the translation of the local currency financial statements of these subsidiaries into the functional currency, assets and liabilities that are receivable or payable in cash are translated at current exchange rates while inventories and other non-monetary assets are translated at historical rates. Gains and losses resulting from the translation of such financial instruments are included in the operating results, as are gains and losses incurred on foreign currency transactions. Certain foreign subsidiaries utilize the local currency as their functional currency. The assets and liabilities of these subsidiaries are translated at current exchange rates while revenues and expenses are translated at the average rates in effect for the period. The related translation gains and losses are included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) within stockholder’s equity (deficit).

Related Party Transactions

         The Company has extensive transactions and relationships with ON Semiconductor and its affiliates which include intercompany pricing agreements, an intellectual property royalty agreement and general and administrative and research and development cost sharing. Because of these relationships, it is possible that the terms of these transactions are not the same as those that would result from transactions among wholly unrelated parties.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

         In June 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143, “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations”. Under this standard, asset retirement obligations will be recognized when incurred at their estimated fair value. In addition, the cost of the asset retirement obligation will be capitalized as a part of the assets’ carrying valued and depreciated over the assets’ remaining useful life. The Company will be required to adopt SFAS 143 effective January 1, 2003. The Company does not expect the implementation of SFAS 143 to have a material effect on its financial condition or results of operations.

         In October 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”. SFAS 144 requires that all long-lived assets (including discontinued operations) that are to be disposed of by sale be measured at the lower of book value or fair value less cost to sell. Additionally, SFAS 144 expands the scope of discontinued operations to include all components of an entity with operations that can be distinguished from the rest of the entity and will be eliminated from the ongoing operations of the entity in a disposal transaction. SFAS 144 was effective for the Company as of January 1, 2002. The implementation of SFAS 144 did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

Note 4: 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. Management 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 this accounting change for periods prior to January 1, 2001 was a charge of $81.5 million and was recorded in 2001. The accounting change resulted in $55.7 million increase in revenues and a $29.5 million reduction of the Company’s net loss in 2001.

Note 8: Related Party Transactions

         At December 31, 2000 and 2001, the total aggregate amount outstanding under various loan agreements between the Company and its Parent was $172.4 million and $367.9 million, respectively. The loan agreements expire on December 31, 2004, bear interest at a weighted average rate of 4.73% and are unsecured.

         The Company consigns inventory to affiliates to perform all semiconductor manufacturing activities. The Company is charged for these activities based on intercompany pricing agreements with the respective affiliates and records the related costs in inventory. Finished goods are either sold to third-party customers outside the United States or to affiliates. Sales to affiliates are also based on intercompany transfer pricing agreements.

         SCI LLC also incurs certain general and administrative and research and development costs that directly benefit the Company. General and administrative expenses that directly benefit the Company are specifically identified by management and charged to the Company by SCI LLC. Research and development costs are allocated and charged based on the percent of the Company’s third-party sales to total ON Semiconductor third-party sales. Additionally, SCI LLC charges the Company a royalty fee for the use of ON Semiconductor’s intellectual property. The royalty fee is a minimum of $10.0 million annually and is based on a percentage of the Company’s third-party sales, such percentage determined based on the overall annual gross margin percentage of ON Semiconductor. The allocations utilized in arriving at the amounts reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements are based on assumptions that management believes are reasonable in the circumstances; however, such allocations are not necessarily indicative of the costs that would have been incurred by the Company had it operated as a stand-alone entity.

2000 Employee Stock Purchase Plan

         Eligible employees also participate in ON Semiconductor’s 2000 Employee Stock Purchase Plan. Subject to local legal requirements, each of the Company’s full-time employees has the right to elect to have up to 10% of their payroll applied towards the purchase of shares of On Semiconductor common stock at a price equal to 85% of the fair market value of such shares as determined under the plan. Employees are limited to purchases of the lesser of 2,000 shares or $25,000 under this plan. During 2000, and 2001, employees purchased approximately 104,000 and 188,000 shares under the plan.

Fair Value of Stock Options

         As permitted by SFAS 123, the Company measures employee stock compensation expense in accordance with APB 25. Had the Company determined employee stock compensation expense in accordance with SFAS 123, the Company’s net income (loss) for period from October 27, 2000 (inception) through December 31, 2000 and for the year ended December 31, 2001 would have been reduced (increased) to the pro forma amounts indicated below (in millions):

                   
      October 27, 2000

As reported
  $ 21.4     $ (176.2 )

         The weighted-average estimated fair value of employee stock options granted during 2000 and 2001 was $9.67 and $3.23 per share, respectively. The weighted-average estimated fair value of shares sold under the 2000 Employee Stock Purchase Plan during 2000 and 2001 was $3.82 and $1.24, respectively.

Note 11: Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts

         The Company’s foreign currency exposures are included in ON Semiconductor’s worldwide foreign currency exposure management program. ON Semiconductor aggregates the forecasted foreign currency exposures for each of its subsidiaries on a monthly basis and enters into forward currency contracts in order to reduce its overall exposure to the effects of currency fluctuations on its results of operations and cash flows. Prior to January 1, 2001, the Company entered into its own foreign currency contracts. The Company’s net foreign currency transaction gains (losses) included in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations for the period October 27, 2000 (inception) through December 31, 2000 and for the year ended December 31, 2001 are $(0.1) million and 1.3 million, respectively.

         Legal Matters

         ON Semiconductor 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 will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

         Common Stock Collateral Pledge

         On May 6, 2002, ON Semiconductor issued $300 million of notes pursuant to a Rule 144A Regulation S offering that was exempt from registration requirements of the Federal Securities laws. The notes are jointly and severally guaranteed on a senior basis by ON Semiconductor’s domestic restricted subsidiaries that are also guarantors under its senior subordinated notes. In addition, the notes and guarantees are secured on a second priority basis by the capital stock or other equity interests of domestic subsidiaries, 65% of the capital stock or other equity interests of first-tier foreign subsidiaries, which includes the Company and certain of its affiliates, and substantially all other assets, in each case that are held by ON Semiconductor or any of the guarantors, but only to the extent that obligations under its senior bank facilities are secured by a first-priority lien thereon.

Note 13: Fair Value of Financial Instruments

         The Company uses the following methods to estimate the fair values of its financial instruments:

         Cash and Cash Equivalents

         The carrying amount approximates fair value due to the short-term maturities of such instruments.

         Notes Payable to Parent

         Due to the related party nature of the notes payable to Parent, it was not practicable to estimate their fair values due to the inability to obtain quoted market prices or determine current market rate for similar related party notes payable. At December 31, 2000 and 2001, the carrying value of the notes payable to Parent was $172.4 million and $367.9 million, respectively.

         Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts

         Forward foreign exchange contracts are valued at current foreign exchange rates for contracts with similar maturities.
