REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

 

To The Board of Directors and

Stockholder of ON Semiconductor Trading Ltd.

 

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated balance sheet and the related consolidated statements of operations, of stockholder’s equity (deficit) and of cash flows present fairly, after the restatement described in Note 2, 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, 2002 and 2001, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 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 5 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company changed its method of accounting for sales to distributors effective January 1, 2001.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

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, which provided ON Trading 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 October 3, 2003 and for the nine months ended September 27, 2002 and October 3, 2003, 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 the 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.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

 

Note 2:    Restatement of Consolidated Financial Statements

 

The Company is one of many subsidiaries of its Parent. During 2001, a consolidating entry necessary to eliminate intercompany profit in inventory at the Parent level was posted to the Company’s consolidated financial statements in error. As a result of this error, the Company’s cost of sales in 2001 was overstated and its inventory as of December 31, 2001 was understated in its separate company financial statements. The Company’s inventory was also understated and its accumulated deficit was overstated as of December 31, 2002 as a result of this error. The Company has restated its consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2002 and 2001 and for the year ended December 31, 2001 to correct for this error. The Company also reclassified certain costs from internal to external cost of sales to more appropriately present the costs associated with each type of sale. A summary of the financial statement amounts impacted by the restatement adjustments and the reclassification is as follows (in millions):

$136.7 million under a 10% junior subordinated note payable to Motorola due 2011; $23.6 million under a note payable to a Japanese bank due 2010; $20.0 million under a loan facility with a Chinese bank and $1.0 million under a capital lease obligation. ON Semiconductor was in compliance with all of the covenants contained in its various debt agreements as of October 3, 2003 and expects to remain in compliance over the next twelve months.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2002, ON Semiconductor incurred a net loss of $141.9 million compared to a net loss of $831.4 million in 2001 and net income of $71.1 million in 2000. ON Semiconductor’s net results included restructuring, asset impairments and other of $27.7 million, $150.4 million and $4.8 million in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively, as well as interest expense of $149.5 million, $139.6 million and $135.3 million, respectively. ON Semiconductor’s operating activities provided cash of $46.4 million in 2002 and $312.2 million in 2000 and used cash of $116.4 million in 2001.

 

At December 31, 2002, ON Semiconductor had $190.4 million in cash and cash equivalents, net working capital of $195.2 million, term or revolving debt of $1,423.2 million and a stockholders’ deficit of $662.1 million. ON Semiconductor’s long-term debt includes $701.6 million under its senior bank facilities; $291.4 million (net of discount) of its 12% senior secured notes due 2008; $260.0 million of its 12% senior subordinated notes due 2009; $126.9 million under a 10% junior subordinated note payable to Motorola due 2011; $20.0 million loan facility with a Chinese bank; and, $23.3 million under a note payable to a Japanese bank due 2010.

 

ON Semiconductor’s ability to service its long-term debt, to remain in compliance with the various covenants and restrictions contained in its credit agreements and to fund working capital, capital expenditures and business development efforts will depend on its ability to generate cash from operating activities which is subject to, among other things, its future operating performance as well as to general economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other conditions, some of which may beyond its control.

 

If ON Semiconductor fails to generate sufficient cash from operations, it may need to raise additional equity or borrow additional funds to achieve its longer term objectives. There can be no assurance that such equity or borrowings will be available or, if available, will be at rates or prices acceptable to ON Semiconductor. Management believes that cash flow from operating activities coupled with existing cash balances will be adequate to fund ON Semiconductor’s operating and capital needs as well as enable it to maintain compliance with its various debt agreements through October 3, 2004. To the extent that results or events differ from ON Semiconductor’s financial projections or business plans, the Company’s liquidity may be adversely impacted.

 

Note 4:    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.

 

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.

ON SEMICONDUCTOR TRADING LTD

(An Indirect Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of ON Semiconductor Corporation)

 

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

 

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 actual cost on a first-in, first-out basis), or market. The Company records provisions for slow moving inventories based upon a regular analysis of inventory levels on hand compared to historical and projected end user demand. Projected end user demand is generally based on sales during the prior twelve months.

 

These provisions can influence results from operations. For example, when demand for a given part falls, all or a portion of the related inventory is reserved, impacting cost of sales and gross profit. If demand recovers and the parts previously reserved are sold, a higher than normal margin will generally be recognized. General market conditions as well as the Company’s design activities can cause certain of its products to become obsolete.

 

Property and Equipment

 

Property 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.

 

The Company evaluates the recoverability of the carrying amount of its property, plant and equipment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the related carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Impairment is assessed when the undiscounted expected cash flows derived for an asset are less than its carrying amount. Impairment losses are measured as the amount by which the carrying value of an asset exceeds its fair value and are recognized in operating results. Judgment is used when applying these impairment rules to determine the timing of the impairment test, the undiscounted cash flows used to assess impairments and the fair value of an impaired asset. The dynamic economic environment in which the Company operates and the resulting assumptions used to estimate future cash flows impact the outcome of these impairment tests.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company generates revenue from the sales of its semiconductor products to original equipment manufacturers, distributors and electronic manufacturing service providers as well as to affiliated companies. The Company recognizes revenue on sales to original equipment manufacturers and electronic manufacturing service providers when title passes to the customer net of provisions for related sales costs and allowances. 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.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

 

Prior to January 1, 2001, the Company recognized revenue on all distributor sales when title passed to the distributor. 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. Title to products sold to distributors typically passes at the time of shipment by the Company so the Company records accounts receivable for the amount of the transaction, reduces its inventory for the products shipped and defers the related margin in the consolidated balance sheet. The Company recognizes the related revenue and margin when the distributor sells the products to the end user. Although payment terms vary, most distributor agreements require payment within 30 days.

 

Research and Development Costs

 

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for employee stock options relating to the common stock of ON Semiconductor in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” (“APB 25”) and provides the pro forma disclosures required by SFAS No. 123 “Accounting for Stock Based Compensation” (“SFAS No. 123”). The Company measures compensation expense relating to non-employee stock awards in accordance with SFAS No. 123.

 

Had the Company determined employee stock compensation expense in accordance with SFAS No. 123, the Company’s net income (loss) for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001, and 2000 and the nine months ended October 3, 2003 and September 27, 2002 would have been reduced (increased) to the pro forma amounts indicated below (in millions):

The weighted-average estimated fair value of the discount on the shares sold under the 2000 Employee Stock Purchase Plan during the first nine months of 2003 and 2002 was $0.44 and $0.71, respectively.

 

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.

 

Income taxes are accounted for using the asset and liability method and are determined on a separate return basis. 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.

 

In determining the amount of the valuation allowance, estimated future taxable income as well as feasible tax planning strategies in each taxing jurisdiction are considered. If all or a portion of the remaining deferred tax assets will not be realized, the valuation allowance will be increased with a charge to income tax expense. Conversely, if the Company will ultimately be able to utilize all or a portion of the deferred tax assets for which a

 

12

(An Indirect Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of ON Semiconductor Corporation)

 

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

 

valuation allowance has been provided, the related portion of the valuation allowance will be released to income as a credit to income tax expense. In the fourth quarter of 2001, a valuation allowance was established for the majority of the Company’s deferred tax assets. Additionally, throughout 2002, no incremental deferred tax benefits were recognized. The Company’s ability to utilize its deferred tax assets and the continuing need for a related valuation allowance are monitored on an ongoing basis.

 

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 financial statements of these subsidiaries, 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 statements are included in the operating results, as are gains and losses incurred on foreign currency transactions. The Company’s remaining 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).

 

Defined Benefit Plans

 

The Company maintains pension plans covering certain of its employees. For financial reporting purposes, net periodic pension costs are calculated based upon a number of actuarial assumptions, including a discount rate for plan obligations, assumed rate of return on pension plan assets and assumed rate of compensation increase for plan employees. All of these assumptions are based upon management’s judgement, considering all known trends and uncertainties. Actual results that differ from these assumptions would impact the future expense recognition and cash funding requirements of our pension plans.

 

Reclassifications

 

Certain amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation.

 

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 agreements. 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 Financial Accounting Standards Board (“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’s adoption of SFAS No. 143 did not impact its financial condition or results of operations.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

 

The Company adopted SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” effective January 1, 2002. SFAS No. 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 No. 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. The Company’s adoption of SFAS No. 144 did not impact its financial condition or results of operations.

 

In April 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 145, “Rescission of FAS Nos. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FAS 13, and Technical Corrections as of April 2002”. SFAS No. 145 rescinds SFAS No. 4, “Reporting Gains and Losses from Extinguishment of Debt”, and an amendment of that Statement, SFAS No. 64, “Extinguishments of Debt Made to Satisfy Sinking-Fund Requirements” and excludes extraordinary item treatment for gains and losses associated with the extinguishment of debt that do not meet the Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 30, “Reporting the Results of Operations—Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions” criteria. Any gain or loss on extinguishment of debt that was classified as an extraordinary item in prior periods presented that does not meet the criteria in APB No. 30 for classification as an extraordinary item shall be reclassified. SFAS No. 145 also amends FASB Statement No. 13, “Accounting for Leases” and amends other existing authoritative pronouncements to make various technical corrections, clarify meanings, or describe their applicability under changed conditions. The Company’s adoption of SFAS 145 did not impact its financial condition or results of operations.

 

In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities”. SFAS No. 146 addresses financial accounting and reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities and nullifies Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) Issue No. 94-3, “Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)”. SFAS No. 146 requires that a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized when the liability is incurred. Under EITF No. 94-3, a liability for an exit cost as defined in EITF No. 94-3 was recognized at the date of an entity’s commitment to an exit plan. The provisions of SFAS No. 146 are effective for exit or disposal activities that are initiated by the Company after December 31, 2002.

 

In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation—Transition and Disclosure—an amendment to FAS 123.” SFAS No. 148 provides alternative methods of transition for voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. SFAS No. 148 also requires that disclosures of the pro forma effect of using the fair value method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation be displayed more prominently and in a tabular format. Additionally, SFAS No. 148 requires disclosure of the pro forma effect in annual and interim financial statements. The transition and annual disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 148 are effective for the Company’s fiscal year 2002. The interim disclosure requirements are effective for the first quarter of fiscal year 2003 and are included in Note 3, “Significant Accounting Policies.” The Company has no plans to change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation.

 

In November 2002, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 45 (“FIN 45”), “Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others.” FIN No. 45 requires a guarantor to recognize, at the inception of a guarantee, a liability for the fair value of the obligation undertaken in issuing the guarantee. FIN No. 45 also expands the disclosures required to be made by a guarantor about its obligations under certain guarantees that it has issued. Initial recognition and measurement provisions of

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

 

FIN No. 45 are applicable on a prospective basis to guarantees issued or modified. The disclosure requirements are effective immediately and such disclosures have been included in Note 6 “Balance Sheet Information”. The Company’s adoption of FIN No. 45 did not impact its financial condition or results of operations.

 

In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46 (“FIN 46”), “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an Interpretation of ARB No. 51”. FIN 46 requires certain variable interest entities to be consolidated by the primary beneficiary of the entity if the equity investors in the entity do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support from other parties. FIN 46 is effective for all new variable interest entities created or acquired after January 31, 2003. For variable interest entities created to acquired prior to February 1, 2003, the provisions of FIN 46 must be applied to the first interim or annual period beginning after June 15, 2003. The Company’s adoption of FIN 46 did not impact its financial condition or results of operations.

 

Note 5:    Accounting Change

 

Sales are made to distributors under agreements that allow certain rights of return and price protections on products that are not resold by such distributors. Prior to January 1, 2001, the Company recognized revenue on distributor sales when title passed to the distributor. Provisions were also recorded at that time for estimated sales returns from our distributors on these unsold products. Effective January 1, 2001, the Company changed its revenue recognition method on sales to distributors so that such revenues are recognized at the time the distributor sells the Company’s products to the end customer. Title to products sold to distributors typically passes at the time of shipment by the Company so the Company records accounts receivable for the amount of the transaction, reduces its inventory for the products shipped and defers the related margin in the consolidated balance sheet. The Company recognizes the related revenue and margin when the distributor sells the products to the end user. Although payment terms vary, most distributor agreements require payment within 30 days.

 

Management believes that this accounting change was 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. Additionally, the timing of revenue recognition is no longer influenced by the distributor’s stocking decisions. This revenue recognition policy and manner of presentation is commonly used in the semiconductor industry.

 

The impact of the accounting change for periods prior to 2001 was a charge of $81.5 million and is reflected as the cumulative effect of change in accounting principle in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss for 2001. The accounting change resulted in an increase in revenues of $55.7 million and a reduction in net loss of $29.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2001.

 

The estimated pro forma effects of the accounting change for the period from October 27, 2000 (inception) through December 31, 2000 are as follows (in millions):

June 2003 Restructuring and Asset Impairments

 

In June 2003, the Company recorded charges totaling $1.7 million associated with its restructuring programs. The charges include $1.2 million of lease and contract termination costs, $0.2 million of asset impairments and an additional $0.3 million associated with employee separation costs included in March 2002 restructuring program.

 

The lease and contract termination costs relate to the exit of certain sales and administrative offices in Bermuda and Europe and the termination of other purchase and supply agreements. As of October 3, 2003, all exit costs related to these charges have been paid.

 

The Company identified certain buildings, machinery, software and equipment that would no longer be used internally due to the continued consolidation of general and administrative functions and recorded an asset impairment charge of $0.2 million to write-down the remaining carrying value of these assets to their net realizable value.

 

June 2002 Restructuring and Asset Impairments

 

In June 2002, the Company recorded charges totaling $0.8 million for costs associated with its restructuring activities including $0.6 million to cover employee separation costs associated with the termination of two employees and $0.2 million for equipment write-offs that were charged directly against the related assets.

As of October 3, 2003, all impacted employees had been terminated and the related severance payments had been made.

 

March 2002 Restructuring

 

In March 2002, the Company recorded a $5.3 million charge to cover employee separation costs relating to the termination of 62 employees. Approximately $5.0 million of this charge is attributable to employee terminations resulting from the Company’s decision to relocate its European administrative functions from Toulouse, France to Roznov, Czech Republic and Piestany, Slovakia. The relocation of these functions is currently expected to be completed by June 30, 2003. The remaining $0.3 million relates to reductions in selling, general and administrative functions primarily in the United Kingdom. The Company recorded an additional $0.3 in employee separation costs relating to the relocation of the administrative functions in Toulouse, France during the second quarter of 2003 and an additional $0.2 million in the third quarter of 2003 as a result of its reevaluation of remaining costs to be incurred. As of October 3, 2003, Company expects that the remaining severance benefits will be paid by June 2004. As of October 3, 2003, the remaining liability relating to this restructuring was $1.0 million.

June 2001 Restructuring and Asset Impairments

 

In June 2001, the Company recorded charges totaling $8.0 million for costs associated with its worldwide restructuring programs. These programs were in response to rapidly changing economic circumstances requiring the Company to rationalize its operations to meet declining customer demand. The charge included $4.8 million to cover employee separation costs associated with the termination of approximately 175 employees and $0.5 million for additional pension charges related to the terminated employees. (The additional pension charge is reflected in the Company’s accrued pension liability in the consolidated balance sheet.) As of December 31, 2002, all of the employees had been terminated under this restructuring program.

 

The Company identified certain manufacturing equipment that would no longer be used internally and recorded a charge of $1.4 million to write-off the assets.

 

The June 2001 charge also included $1.3 million to cover certain exit costs relating to contract terminations. During 2002, the Company recorded a $0.4 adjustment to release reserves associated with the June 2001 restructuring programs due to the Company’s analysis of estimated costs to complete those programs. As of December 31, 2002, all exit activities have been completed.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

 

Income taxes have not been provided on the undistributed earnings of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries (approximately $68.5 million at December 31, 2002) over which it has sufficient influence to control the distribution of such earnings and has determined that such earnings have been reinvested indefinitely. These earnings could become subject to additional tax if they are remitted as dividends, if foreign earnings are loaned to any of the Company’s subsidiaries, or it the Company sells its investment in such subsidiaries. The Company estimates that repatriation of these foreign earnings would generate additional foreign withholding taxes of $5.1 million.

 

Note 9:    Related Party Transactions

 

At December 31, 2002 and 2001, the total aggregate amount outstanding under various loan agreements between the Company and its Parent was $160.3 million and $367.9 million, respectively. The loan agreements expire on December 31, 2004, bear interest at a weighted average rate of 4.97% 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.

Historically, the Company amortized its net unrecognized actuarial gains or losses over the average remaining service lives of active plan participants, to the extent that such net gains or losses exceeded the greater of 10% of the related projected benefit obligation or plan assets. Effective January 1, 2003, the Company will no longer defer actuarial gains or losses but will recognize such gains and losses during the fourth quarter of each year, which is the period the Company’s annual pension plan actuarial valuations are prepared. Management believes that this change is to a preferable accounting method as actuarial gains or losses will be recognized currently in income rather than being deferred. This change did not have a material impact on the Company.

 

Defined Contribution Plans

 

Certain subsidiaries have defined contribution plans in which eligible employees participate. The Company recognized compensation expense of $0.1 million, $0.3 million and $0.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001 and for the period from October 27, 2000 (inception) through December 31, 2000, respectively, relating to these plans.

 

Note 11:    Stock Options

 

Certain employees of the Company participate in ON Semiconductor stock option plans.

 

Generally, the options granted under these plans vest over a period of four years. Upon the termination of an option holder’s employment, all unvested options will immediately terminate and vested options will generally remain exercisable for a period of 90 days after date of termination (one year in the case of death or disability).

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

 

Note 12:    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 years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001 and for the period October 27, 2000 (inception) through December 31, 2000 are $2.4 million, $1.3 million and $(0.1) 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 ON Semiconductor’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

 

Common Stock Collateral Pledge

 

On May 6, 2002, ON Semiconductor and SCI LLC (collectively, the “Issuers”) issued $300 million principal amount of second lien notes in a private offering that was exempt from registration requirements of the U.S. Federal Securities laws. The notes are jointly and severally, fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior basis by ON Semiconductor’s domestic restricted subsidiaries that are 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 ON Semiconductor’s domestic subsidiaries, 65% of the capital stock or other equity interests of its 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.

 

On March 3, 2003, the Issuers issued $200.0 million principal amount of first-lien senior secured notes due 2010 (the “First-Lien Notes”) in a private offering that was exempt from registration requirements of the U.S. Federal Securities laws. The obligations under the First-Lien Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a

The First-Lien Notes and guarantees are secured on a first-priority basis the capital stock or other equity interests of ON Semiconductor’s domestic subsidiaries, 65% of the capital stock or other equity interests of its 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 14:    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 instruments. At December 31, 2002 and 2001, the carrying value of the notes payable to Parent was $160.3 million and $367.9 million, respectively.

 

Note 15:    Supplemental Disclosure of Cash Flow Information

 

Cash payments for interest and income taxes for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001 and for the period from October 27, 2000 (inception) through December 31, 2000 are as follows (in millions):
