Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial data at December 31, 2019 is derived from audited financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 12, 2020 (“Form 10-K”). The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. They do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, operating results and cash flows in conformity with GAAP for complete financial statements. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes contained in our Form 10-K.  All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments and accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the operating results for the period presented have been included in the interim period. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for other interim periods or the year ending December 31, 2020.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates. As permitted under GAAP, interim accounting for certain expenses, including income taxes, are based on full year forecasts. For interim financial reporting purposes, income taxes are recorded based upon estimated annual effective income tax rates taking into consideration discrete items occurring in a quarter.

Dollar amounts and share amounts are presented in thousands, except per share amounts, unless otherwise noted. Certain prior year’s balances may have been reclassified to conform to the current financial statement presentation.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards (“FASB”) Update (“ASU”) No. 2020-04 Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848). ASU No. 2020-04 contains practical expedients for reference rate reform related activities that impact debt, leases, derivatives and other contracts. The guidance in ASU No. 2020-04 is optional and may be elected over time as reference rate reform activities occur. During the second quarter of 2020; the Company elected to apply the hedge accounting expedients related to probability and the assessments of effectiveness for future LIBOR-indexed cash flows to assume that the index upon which future hedged transactions will be based matches the index on the corresponding derivatives. Application of these expedients preserves the presentation of derivatives consistent with past presentation. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of the guidance and may apply other elections as applicable as additional changes in the market occur.

In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-13, which requires measurement and recognition of expected credit losses for financial assets held. We adopted ASU No. 2016-13 effective January 1, 2020. The adoption of ASU No. 2016-13 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

NOTE 2 – Earnings per Share

Earnings per share (“EPS”) is calculated by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is calculated similarly but includes potential dilution from the exercise of stock options and stock awards, except when the effect would be anti-dilutive.  During the three and six month ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 we paid no dividends on our Common Stock.

The table below sets forth the reconciliation between net income and the weighted average shares outstanding used for calculating basic and diluted EPS:

	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended

Diluted	$	0.01		$	(0.01	)	$	0.03		$	(0.02	)

    The decrease in the effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 when compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, is primarily attributable to a decrease in non-U.S. withholding taxes and a net increase in favorable U.S. permanent differences.      

Our undistributed foreign earnings continue to be indefinitely reinvested in foreign operations, with limited exceptions related to earnings of certain European and Asian subsidiaries.  Any future distributions of foreign earnings will not be subject to additional U.S. income tax, but may be subject to non-U.S. withholding taxes.

         We file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and in various state and foreign jurisdictions. We are no longer subject to U.S. federal income tax examinations by tax authorities for tax years before 2012, or for the 2015 tax year. We are no longer subject to China income tax examinations by tax authorities for tax years before 2010. With respect to state and local jurisdictions and countries outside of the U.S. (other than China), with limited exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to income tax audits for years before 2014. Although the outcome of tax audits is always uncertain, the Company believes that adequate amounts of tax, interest and penalties, if any, have been provided for in the Company’s reserve for any adjustments that may result from currently pending tax audits. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense. As of June 30, 2020, the gross amount of unrecognized tax benefits was approximately $39.6 million.   

-11-

It is reasonably possible that the amount of the unrecognized benefit with respect to certain of the Company’s unrecognized tax positions will significantly increase or decrease within the next 12 months. At this time, an estimate of the range of the reasonably possible outcomes cannot be made.

In response to the outbreak of the novel strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic, the United States Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act was enacted on March 27, 2020.  We do not expect the CARES Act to have a material impact on our financial statements because we do not qualify for most of the relief provisions prescribed in the CARES Act. We will continue to assess the impacts of the CARES Act and any other legislation adopted by the United States government or other applicable governmental agencies in response to COVID-19 as additional guidance is published by the relevant authorities.

NOTE 6 – Share-Based Compensation

All share-based compensation is attributable to share grants.  All outstanding stock options are fully vested, and all expense related to stock options has been recognized in previous periods. Approximately $1.1 million of cash proceeds were received from stock option exercises during the six months ended June 30, 2020. The table below sets forth the line items where share-based compensation expense was recorded:

	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
	June 30,				June 30,
	2020		2019		2020		2019
Cost of goods sold	$	257	$	259	$	530	$	384
Selling, general and administrative		6,715		4,309		10,426		7,946
Research and development		729		730		1,438		1,445
Total share-based compensation expense	$	7,701	$	5,298	$	12,394	$	9,775

Share Grants – Restricted stock awards and restricted stock units generally vest in equal annual installments over a four-year period. All new grants are granted under the Company’s 2013 Equity Incentive Plan, and there will be no additional share grants under the 2001 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan. Restricted stock grants are measured based on the fair market value of the underlying stock on the date of grant, and compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite four-year service period.  During the second quarter of 2020, in connection with the retirement of a member of the Company’s board of directors, the Company modified that director’s unvested RSU grants to vest upon his retirement.  The shares subject to the modified grants will be released to that board member as if they were vesting under the original vesting timeline.  In connection with this modification, the Company recorded additional expense of approximately $1.7 million.  

Performance stock units (“PSUs”) are measured based on the fair market value of the underlying stock on the date of grant and compensation expense is recognized over the three-year performance period, with adjustments made to the expense to recognize the probable payout percentage. PSUs will vest upon the Company achieving a cumulative 3-year non-GAAP operating income target for the applicable periods.

As of June 30, 2020, total unrecognized share-based compensation expense related to share grants was approximately $43.5 million, before income taxes, and is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 2.1 years.          

NOTE 7 – Segment Information and Net Sales

Segment Reporting. For financial reporting purposes, we operate in a single segment, standard semiconductor products, through our various manufacturing and distribution facilities. We aggregate our products because the products are similar and have similar economic characteristics, use similar production processes and share the same customer type. Our primary operations include operations in Asia, North America and Europe.  During the three months ended June 30, 2019, one customer, a broad-based global distributor that sells to thousands of different end users, accounted for 10% or $31.5 million of our net sales.  No customer accounted for 10% or greater of our net sales during any other period presented. No customer accounted for 10% or more of our outstanding accounts receivable at any point in the periods presented in this report.

Disaggregation of Net Sales. We disaggregate net sales from contracts with customers into direct sales and distribution sales (“Distributors”) and by geographic area. Direct sales customers consist of those customers using our product in their manufacturing process, and Distributors are those customers who resell our products to third parties. We deliver our products to customers around the world for use in consumer electronics, computing, communications, industrial and automotive. Further, most of our contracts are fixed-price arrangements, and are short term in nature, ranging from days to several months.

NOTE 8 – Debt

Our Asia subsidiaries maintain credit facilities with several financial institutions through our foreign entities worldwide totaling $165.5 million. Other than two Taiwanese credit facilities that are collateralized by assets, our foreign credit lines are unsecured, uncommitted, repayable on demand, terminable by the lender at any time and contain no restrictive covenants.  Interest payments are due monthly on outstanding amounts under the credit lines. The unused and available credit under the various facilities as of June 30, 2020, was approximately $101.4  million, net of a $63.7  million advanced under our foreign credit lines and $0.4 million credit used for import and export guarantee. In connection with our Asia credit facilities $51.4 million of cash deposits have been restricted in support of a corresponding loan amount.

On May 29, 2020, the Company, Diodes Holding B.V. (the “Foreign Borrower” and, collectively with the Company, the “Borrowers”), and certain subsidiaries of the Company as guarantors, entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) that amends and restates that certain Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of October 26, 2016 (as amended, modified and/or supplemented from time to time prior May 29, 2020, the “Existing Credit Agreement”).  Certain capitalized terms used in this description of the Credit Agreement have the meanings given to them in the Credit Agreement. The Company analyzed this amendment pursuant to the guidance in ASC No. 470-50, Debt—Modifications and Extinguishments. The Company determined that certain lenders had changes in cash flows which were substantially different as a result of the amendment, which resulted in a debt extinguishment of $52.2 million and a loss on extinguishment and third-party fees of $0.7 million being expensed in the three-month period ended June 30, 2020.  

The Credit Agreement rebalances the Company’s existing senior credit facilities under the Existing Credit Agreement from (x) aggregate credit facilities of $500,000,000, consisting of (A) a $250,000,000 revolving senior credit facility, which included a $10,000,000 swing line sublimit, a $10,000,000 letter of credit sublimit, and a $20,000,000 alternative currency sublimit, and (B) a $250,000,000 term loan to (y) aggregate credit facilities of $670,000,000 consisting of (A) an acquisition draw term commitment of $340,000,000 (the “Acquisition Draw Term Commitment”), (B) an initial term commitment of $180,000,000 (the “Initial Term Commitment” and, together with the Acquisition Draw Term Commitment, the “Term Loan”) and (C) a $150,000,000 revolving

-14-

senior credit facility (the “Revolver”), which includes a $20,000,000 uncommitted swing line submit, a $10,000,000 letter of credit sublimit, and a $40,000,000 alternative currency sublimit.

The Revolver and the Term Loan mature on May 29, 2023 (the “Maturity Date”).  Both the term loan portion and the revolving portion of the Credit Agreement bear an interest rate at LIBOR or similar other indices plus a specified margin. The Company plans to use a portion of the proceeds available under the Revolver and the Term Loan (i) to finance the Company’s previously announced acquisition of Lite-On Semiconductor Corporation, (ii) to refinance certain existing indebtedness of the Borrowers and their subsidiaries under the Existing Credit Agreement and (iii) for working capital, capital expenditures, and other lawful corporate purposes, including, without limitation, financing permitted acquisitions.

The Credit Agreement contains certain financial and non-financial covenants, including, but not limited to, a maximum Consolidated Leverage Ratio, a minimum Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, and restrictions on liens, indebtedness, investments, fundamental changes, dispositions, and restricted payments (including dividends and share repurchases). These covenants are generally similar to the corresponding covenants in the Existing Credit Agreement, except that certain amounts permitted as exceptions to negative covenants restricting liens, indebtedness, investments, dispositions and restricted payments have been revised, and additional exceptions to certain negative covenants have been added, including increased capacity for certain intercompany Indebtedness and Investment (including existing Lite-On Indebtedness), and the right to enter into certain securitization transactions and receivables facilities, subject to limitations set forth in the Credit Agreement.  Furthermore, under the Credit Agreement, restricted payments, including dividends and share repurchases, are permitted in certain circumstances, including while the pro forma Consolidated Leverage Ratio is, both before and after giving effect to any such restricted payment, at least 0.25 to 1.00 less than the maximum permitted under the Credit Agreement.

In addition to the liquidity provided by the Credit Agreement, our 51% owned subsidiary, ERIS Technology Corporation (“ERIS”), borrowed $13.7 million through a short-term loan and $27.0 million on a long-term basis from local Taiwan banks.  The ERIS debt matures in periods from 2020 through 2033.

Borrowings outstanding as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, are set forth in the table below:

	June 30,			December 31,				Current Amount

NOTE 9 – Commitments and Contingencies

Purchase commitments – As of June 30, 2020, we had approximately $26.8 million in non-cancelable purchase contracts related to capital expenditures, primarily related to our manufacturing facilities in Asia.  As of June 30, 2020, we also had a commitment to purchase approximately $29.8 million of wafers to be used in our manufacturing process.  These wafer purchases will occur during 2020.

Defined Benefit Plan - We have a contributory defined benefit plan that covers certain employees in the United Kingdom.  As of June 30, 2020, the unfunded liability for this defined benefit plan was approximately $28.7 million.  An actuarial valuation was performed as of March 31, 2019, resulting in a deficit of approximately GBP 26.7 million (approximately $27.9 million based on a GBP: USD exchange rate of 1.2:1). As a result of this valuation we have agreed to a revised schedule of contributions of GBP 2.0 million (approximately $2.4 million based on a GBP: USD exchange rate of 1.2:1) to be paid in annual installments with

-15-

effect from April 1, 2020 to address the deficit revealed by the valuation (with the first payment made by March 31, 2021, and payments to be made by December 31 each year thereafter). These contributions, together with the assumed asset outperformance, are expected to eliminate the deficit by December 31, 2028. Further, we will pay GBP 0.2 million in annual installments effective April 1, 2020 to cover expenses.

Contingencies – From time to time, we are involved in various legal proceedings that arise in the normal course of business. While we intend to defend any lawsuit vigorously, we presently believe that the ultimate outcome of any pending legal proceeding will not have any material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, cash flows or operating results. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and unfavorable rulings could occur. An unfavorable ruling could include monetary damages, which could impact our business and operating results for the period in which the ruling occurs or future periods.  Based on information available, we evaluate the likelihood of potential outcomes of all pending disputes. We record an appropriate liability when the amount of any liability associated with a pending dispute is deemed probable and reasonably estimable. In addition, we do not accrue for estimated legal fees and other directly related costs as they are expensed as incurred.  The Company is not currently a party to any pending litigation that the Company considers material.

Note 10 – Derivative Financial Instruments

We use derivative instruments to manage risks related to foreign currencies, interest rates and the net investment risk in our foreign subsidiaries. Our objectives for holding derivatives include reducing, eliminating, and efficiently managing the economic impact of these exposures as effectively as possible. Our derivative programs include strategies that both qualify and do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment.

Hedges of Foreign Currency Risk - We are exposed to fluctuations in various foreign currencies against our different functional currencies. We use foreign currency forward agreements to manage this exposure. At June 30, 2020, and December 31, 2019, we had $93.0 million and $105.9 million, respectively, outstanding foreign currency forward contracts that are intended to preserve the economic value of foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities; these instruments are not designated for hedge accounting treatment in accordance with ASC No. 815.  The fair value of these instruments approximates zero.   

Hedges of Interest Rate and Net Investment Risk -The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish these objectives, the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps, including interest rate collars, as part of its interest rate risk management strategy.  Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount.  

The table below sets forth the fair value of the Company’s interest rate related derivative financial instruments as well as their classification on our condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019:

	Other Current Assets				Other Assets				Other Current Liabilities				Other Liabilities

We estimate that $0.6 million of net derivative gains included in accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) as of June 30, 2020 will be reclassified into expense within the following 12 months. No gains or losses were reclassified from AOCI into earnings as a result of forecasted transactions that failed to occur during three and six months ended June 30, 2020 or 2019.

NOTE 12 – Employee Benefit Plans  

We maintain a Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Deferred Compensation Plan”) for executive officers, key employees and members of the Board of Directors. The Deferred Compensation Plan allows eligible participants to defer the receipt of eligible compensation, including equity awards, until designated future dates. We offset our obligations under the Deferred Compensation Plan primarily by investing in the actual underlying investments. At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, these investments totaled approximately $11.2 million and $12.9 million, respectively.

NOTE 13 – Related Parties

We conduct business with a related party company, Lite-On Semiconductor Corporation and its subsidiaries and affiliates (collectively, “LSC”), and Nuvoton Technology Corporation and its subsidiaries and affiliates (collectively, “Nuvoton”). LSC is our largest stockholder, owning approximately 15% of our outstanding Common Stock as of June 30, 2020, and is a member of the Lite-On Group of companies. On August 8, 2019, we announced that we entered into an agreement with LSC pursuant to which the Company shall acquire LSC. The aggregate consideration payable by the Company, based on the December 31, 2019 exchange rate, is approximately $437 million. This amount is subject to change, based on the Taiwan dollar to United States dollar exchange rate at closing. The acquisition received LSC stockholder approval on October 25, 2019, and we anticipate completing the acquisition in the second half of 2020, subject to customary closing conditions and pending regulatory approval in China.  We expect to fund the purchase price of the transaction primarily with proceeds from the Credit Agreement.  See Note 8.  Raymond Soong, the former Chairman of our Board of Directors, is the Chairman of LSC, and is the Chairman of Lite-On Technology Corporation (“LTC”), a significant shareholder of LSC. C.H. Chen, our former President and Chief Executive Officer and currently the Vice Chairman of our Board of Directors, is also Vice Chairman of LSC and a board member of LTC. Dr. Keh-Shew Lu, Chairman of our Board of Directors, President and Chief Executive Officer, is a board member of LTC, and a board member of Nuvoton. We consider our relationships with LSC and Nuvoton to be mutually beneficial, and we plan to continue our strategic alliance with LSC and Nuvoton.  We purchase wafers from Nuvoton for use in our production process.

We also conduct business with Keylink International (B.V.I.) Inc. and its subsidiaries and affiliates (collectively, “Keylink”). Keylink is our 5% joint venture partner in our Shanghai assembly and test facilities.  We sell products to, and purchase inventory from Keylink. In addition, our subsidiaries in China lease their manufacturing facilities in Shanghai from, and subcontract a portion of our

Note 14 –Acquisitions

Savitech Acquisition

On February 5, 2020, the Company entered into an agreement to invest up to approximately $14.2 million to acquire at least 51% of Savitech Corporation (“Savitech”), a fabless semiconductor design company located in Zhubei City, Taiwan.  The Company will make the investment in two tranches.  The first tranche of $5.6 million, which provided the Company with a 33.6% ownership of Savitech, was made on March 4, 2020.  The initial tranche was funded with cash on hand. The second tranche, currently recorded in other long-term liabilities, as shown in the table below, and currently valued at $8.4 million will increase the Company’s ownership to at least 51% of Savitech. The second tranche will be paid on June 30, 2021, provided Savitech achieves previously agreed-to revenue levels.  If revenue levels are not achieved the Company will pay less than the maximum $8.6 million, but regardless of the amount paid for the second tranche, the Company will still acquire at least 51% of Savitech.

-20-

The Company recorded the purchase of Savitech as a business acquisition and will consolidate Savitech into its operations, based on the voting model, with a non-controlling interest related to the interest the Company does not own in Savitech. The Company made its investment in Savitech in order to increase the Company’s integrated circuit business.   Total purchase consideration recorded was $13.9 million. The goodwill will not be tax deductible. The Company also incurred acquisition costs of approximately $0.1 million that were recognized in selling, general and administrative expense. The table below sets forth the fair value of the assets and liabilities recorded in the acquisition and the corresponding line item in which the item is recorded in our condensed consolidated balance sheet at the date of acquisition. The acquisition accounting is not final as deferred taxes, the contingent consideration payment and goodwill are being finalized.  We expect the acquisition accounting to be finalized in the third quarter of 2020.

Factors Relevant to Our Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2020

• During the second quarter of 2020, net sales were $288.7 million, a decrease of 10.3% from the $322.0 million in the second quarter of 2019, and an increase of 2.8% from the $280.7 million in the first quarter of 2020;

• Gross profit was $101.5 million, a decrease of 16.8% from the $122.0 million of gross profit in the second quarter of 2019, and an increase of 5.9% from the $95.8 million in the first quarter of 2020;

• Gross profit margin was 35.2%, compared to gross profit margin of 37.9% in the second quarter of 2019, and 34.1% in the first quarter of 2020;

• Net income was $21.0 million, or $0.40 per diluted share, compared to net income of $36.3 million, or $0.70 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2019, and net income of $20.2 million, or $0.38 per diluted share in the first quarter of 2020; and

• Cash flow from operations was $33.1 million.  Net cash flow was a positive $283.7 million, which includes $16.5 million of capital expenditures and a $200.0 million draw-down under the new and restated credit agreement, as a partial currency hedge, associated with the anticipated close of the LSC acquisition.

Recent Developments

LSC Acquisition

In the third quarter of 2019 we entered into a Share Swap Agreement that provides for the acquisition of Lite-On Semiconductor Corporation (“LSC”) and its subsidiaries by the Company. At the effective date of the transaction, each share of LSC will be converted into the right to receive TWD $42.50 per share in cash, or approximately US $1.45 per share based on June 30, 2020 exchange rates.  The aggregate consideration payable by the Company, based on the June 30, 2020 exchange rate, is approximately $444.4 million. This amount is subject to change, based on the Taiwan dollar to United States dollar exchange rate at closing. The acquisition received LSC shareholder approval in October 2019, and Taiwan regulatory approval in March 2020.  We anticipate completing the acquisition in the second half of 2020, subject to customary closing conditions and remaining regulatory approval pending in China.  On May 29, 2020, the Company entered into an amended and restated credit agreement that provides the borrowing capacity to fund the purchase of LSC.  The Company has drawn $200.0 million under the new and restated credit agreement as a partial currency hedge associated with the purchase of LSC. See “Liquidity and Capital Resources,” below for additional information related to the amended and restated credit agreement.

COVID-19

In March 2020, the World Health Organization categorized COVID-19 as a pandemic, and the President of the United States declared the COVID-19 outbreak a national emergency. COVID-19 continues to spread throughout the United States and other countries across the world, including the countries in which we operate.  The duration and severity of the effects of COVID-19 are currently unknown. 

Developments have been occurring rapidly with respect to the spread of COVID-19 and its impact on human health and businesses.  New and changing government actions to address the COVID-19 pandemic have been occurring on a daily basis. We have been closely monitoring the COVID-19 pandemic and its impacts and potential impacts on our business.  However, because developments with respect to the spread of COVID-19 and its impacts have been occurring so rapidly and because of the unprecedented nature of the pandemic, we are unable to predict the extent and duration of any possible adverse financial impact of COVID-19 on our business, financial condition and results of operations.  

We remain focused on the safety and well-being of our stakeholders and on the service to our customers.  We will continuously review and assess the rapidly-changing COVID-19 pandemic and its impacts on our customers, our suppliers and our business so that we can seek to address those impacts.  In the first quarter of 2020, following the extended Chinese New Year, we delayed the start of our manufacturing production in China and at the end of the first quarter of 2020 we temporarily closed our wafer fabrication facilities located in the United Kingdom.  Our operations in China and the United Kingdom have both resumed full production.  No assurances can be provided that we will not be required to close or reduce our manufacturing production in the future in response to the COVID-19 pandemic or other events beyond our control.

As of June 30, 2020, our cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments were $506.9 million, and we had access to additional borrowing capacity of $150 million under the revolving portion our U.S. Credit Facility, which we believe assures us adequate liquidity to manage the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business to cover cash needs for working capital and capital expenditures for at least the next 12 months. 

Please see “Risk Factors - The ultimate impact of the COVID-19 pandemic outbreak cannot be estimated at this time, but it may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.” in Item 1A of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for an additional discussion of risks and potential risks of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Income tax provision		4,670			11,174			(6,504	)		(58.2	%)

Net sales decreased approximately $33.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, compared to the same period last year.  This decrease in net sales reflects the global economic slowdown caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.  Despite the overall decrease in net sales, in the second quarter of 2020, the Company benefited from growth in the computing market and our serial-connectivity products.

The table below sets forth our revenue as a percentage of total revenue by end-user market for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019:

	Three Months Ended
	June 30,
	2020	2019
Industrial	22.0%	29.0%
Communications	22.0%	23.0%
Consumer	27.0%	22.0%
Computing	19.0%	16.0%
Automotive	10.0%	10.0%

Cost of goods sold decreased approximately $12.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, compared to the same period last year due to the decreased net sales during the second quarter of 2020.  As a percent of sales, cost of goods sold was 64.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2020, compared to 62.0% for the same period last year. Average unit cost increased

-24-

approximately 2.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2020, compared to the same period last year.  For the three months ended June 30, 2020, gross profit decreased approximately 16.8% when compared to the same period last year. Gross profit margin for the three month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 was 35.2% and 37.9%, respectively. The decrease in gross profit margin reflects the 10.4% decrease in net sales and an increase in unit costs driven by lower manufacturing capacity utilization.

Operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2020, decreased approximately $2.8 million, or 3.9%, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019. Operating expenses as a percentage of net sales was 24.5% and 22.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) decreased approximately $2.0 million and research and development expenses (“R&D”) decreased approximately $0.4 million, each as compared to the same period last year. Amortization of acquisition related intangibles decreased $0.5 million, compared to the same period last year. SG&A, as a percentage of net sales, was 15.7% and 14.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. R&D, as a percentage of net sales, was 7.4% and 6.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.  

Interest income decreased 73.5% for the three months ended June 30, 2020, compared to the same period last year, due to a reduction in short-term investments.  Interest expense increased 31.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2020, compared to the same period last year. The increase in interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2020 was due to a $200.0 million draw-down under the new and restated credit agreement, as a partial currency hedge, associated with the anticipated close of the LSC acquisition, leading to higher levels of borrowing, partially offset by lower interest rates on the floating rate portion.

We recognized an income tax expense of approximately $4.7 million and $11.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The decrease in income taxes for 2020 compared to 2019 was primarily attributable to a decrease in pretax book income, a decrease in non-U.S. withholding taxes and a net increase in favorable U.S. permanent differences.

Net sales decreased approximately $54.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to the same period last year.  This decrease in net sales reflects the global economic slowdown caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.  The decrease also reflects the Company delaying reopening its manufacturing facilities in China after the Chinese New Year period that was extended due to the COVID-19 pandemic.  Also as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, late in March 2020, the Company temporarily shut down its manufacturing facilities in the United Kingdom. Our operations in China and the United Kingdom have both resumed full production.

The table below sets forth our revenue as a percentage of total revenue by end-user market for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019:

	Six Months Ended
	June 30,
	2020	2019
Industrial	24.0%	29.0%
Communications	22.5%	23.0%
Consumer	25.0%	22.5%
Computing	18.0%	15.5%
Automotive	10.5%	10.0%

Cost of goods sold decreased approximately $17.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to the same period last year, due, in part, to the decreased net sales during the first half of 2020.  As a percent of sales, cost of goods sold was 65.3% for the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to 62.5% for the same period last year. Average unit cost increased approximately 7.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to the same period last year, in part due to the shutdown of our manufacturing facilities due to the extended Chinese New Year period. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, gross profit decreased approximately 15.8% when compared to the same period last year. Gross profit margin for the six month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 was 34.7% and 37.5%, respectively. The decrease in gross profit margin reflects the 8.8% decrease in net sales and an increase in unit costs driven by lower manufacturing capacity utilization.

Operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2020, decreased approximately $3.1 million, or 2.2%, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019. Operating expenses as a percentage of net sales was 24.7% and 23.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. SG&A decreased approximately $3.4 million and R&D increased approximately $1.1 million, each as compared to the same period last year. Amortization of acquisition related intangibles decreased $0.8 million, compared to the same period last year. SG&A, as a percentage of net sales, was 15.4% and 14.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. R&D, as a percentage of net sales, was 7.9% and 7.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.  

Interest income decreased 70.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to the same period last year, due to $0.7 million of interest income received in the six months ended June 30, 2019 related to the settlement of a cross-currency swap and reduction in short-term investments.  Interest expense decreased 6.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to the same period last year. The decrease in interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was due to lower levels of debt along with lower interest rates on the floating rate portion of our debt.

We recognized an income tax expense of approximately $9.2 million and $21.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The decrease in income taxes for 2020 compared to 2019 was primarily attributable to a decrease in pretax book income, a decrease in non-U.S. withholding taxes and a net increase in favorable U.S. permanent differences.

Financial Condition

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our primary sources of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents, funds from operations and, if necessary, borrowings under our credit facilities.

Short-term debt

Our Asia subsidiaries maintain credit facilities with several financial institutions through our foreign entities worldwide totaling $165.5 million. At June 30, 2020, outstanding borrowings were $63.7 million and outstanding letters of credit were $0.4 million under the Asia credit facilities. Other than two Taiwanese credit facilities that are collateralized by assets, our foreign credit lines are unsecured, uncommitted, repayable on demand, terminable by the lender at any time and contain no restrictive covenants.  

-26-

These credit facilities bear interest at LIBOR or similar indices plus a specified margin.  Interest payments are due monthly on outstanding amounts under the credit lines. In connection with our Asia credit facilities $51.4 million of cash deposits have been restricted in support of a corresponding loan amount.

Long-term debt

On May 29, 2020, the Company, Diodes Holding B.V. (the “Foreign Borrower” and, collectively with the Company, the “Borrowers”), and certain subsidiaries of the Company as guarantors, entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) that amends and restates that certain Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of October 26, 2016 (as amended, modified and/or supplemented from time to time prior to May 29, 2020, the “Existing Credit Agreement”).  Certain capitalized terms used in this description of the Credit Agreement have the meanings given to them in the Credit Agreement.

The Credit Agreement rebalances the Company’s existing senior credit facilities under the Existing Credit Agreement from (x) aggregate credit facilities of $500,000,000, consisting of (A) a $250,000,000 revolving senior credit facility, which included a $10,000,000 swing line sublimit, a $10,000,000 letter of credit sublimit, and a $20,000,000 alternative currency sublimit, and (B) a $250,000,000 term loan to (y) aggregate credit facilities of $670,000,000 consisting of (A) an acquisition draw term commitment of $340,000,000 (the “Acquisition Draw Term Commitment”), (B) an initial term commitment of $180,000,000 (the “Initial Term Commitment” and, together with the Acquisition Draw Term Commitment, the “Term Loan”) and (C) a $150,000,000 revolving senior credit facility (the “Revolver”), which includes a $20,000,000 uncommitted swing line submit, a $10,000,000 letter of credit sublimit, and a $40,000,000 alternative currency sublimit. The Company analyzed this amendment pursuant to the guidance in ASC No. 470-50, Debt—Modifications and Extinguishments. The Company determined that certain lenders had changes in cash flows which were substantially different as a result of the amendment, which resulted in a debt extinguishment of $52.2 million and a loss on extinguishment and third-party fees of $0.7 million being expensed in the three-month period ended June 30, 2020.  

The Revolver and the Term Loan mature on May 29, 2023 (the “Maturity Date”).  The Company plans to use a portion of the proceeds available under the Revolver and the Term Loan (i) to finance the Company’s previously announced acquisition of Lite-On Semiconductor Corporation, (ii) to refinance certain existing indebtedness of the Borrowers and their subsidiaries under the Existing Credit Agreement and (iii) for working capital, capital expenditures, and other lawful corporate purposes, including, without limitation, financing permitted acquisitions.

The Credit Agreement contains certain financial and non-financial covenants, including, but not limited to, a maximum Consolidated Leverage Ratio, a minimum Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, and restrictions on liens, indebtedness, investments, fundamental changes, dispositions, and restricted payments (including dividends and share repurchases). These covenants are generally similar to the corresponding covenants in the Existing Credit Agreement, except that certain amounts permitted as exceptions to negative covenants restricting liens, indebtedness, investments, dispositions and restricted payments have been revised, and additional exceptions to certain negative covenants have been added, including increased capacity for certain intercompany Indebtedness and Investment (including existing Lite-On Indebtedness), and the right to enter into certain securitization transactions and receivables facilities, subject to limitations set forth in the Credit Agreement.  Furthermore, under the Credit Agreement, restricted payments, including dividends and share repurchases, are permitted in certain circumstances, including while the pro forma Consolidated Leverage Ratio is, both before and after giving effect to any such restricted payment, at least 0.25 to 1.00 less than the maximum permitted under the Credit Agreement.

In addition to the liquidity provided by the Credit Agreement, our 51% owned subsidiary, ERIS Technology Corporation (“ERIS”), borrowed $13.7 million through a short term loan and $27.0 million on a long-term basis from local Taiwan banks.  The ERIS debt matures in periods from 2020 through 2033.

The details of our borrowings outstanding as of June 30, 2020 are set forth in the table below:

	June 30,				Current Amount
Description	2020			Interest Rate	Maturity
Short-term debt	$	63,668		Libor + Margin	Various during 2020 - 2021

Total long-term debt, net of current portion	$	282,271

Historically, our primary liquidity requirements have been to meet our inventory and capital expenditure needs and to fund on-going operations. In the second quarter of 2020, as described above, we increased our borrowing capacity and our outstanding borrowings due to the anticipated close of the LSC acquisition later this year. During the second quarter of 2020, we had a $200.0 million draw-down under the new and restated credit agreement, as a partial currency hedge, associated with the anticipated close of the LSC acquisition. At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, our working capital was $801.2 million and $524.6 million, respectively. We expect cash generated by our operations together with existing cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments and available credit facilities to be sufficient to cover cash needs for working capital and capital expenditures and acquisitions for at least the next 12 months.  

Capital expenditures (including accrued capital expenditures) for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 were $28.3 million and $52.7 million, respectively.  For the first six months of 2020 capital expenditures were approximately 5.0% of our net sales, which is in line with our capital spending target range of 5% to 9% of net sales.  

Our undistributed foreign earnings continue to be indefinitely reinvested in foreign operations, with limited exceptions related to earnings of certain European and Asian subsidiaries.  As of June 30, 2020, our foreign subsidiaries held approximately $469.5 million of cash, cash equivalents and investments of which approximately $9.7 million would be subject to a potential non-U.S. withholding tax if distributed outside the country in which the cash is currently held. The majority of this $9.7 million is held in Taiwan.

As of June 30, 2020, we had short-term investments totaling $3.7 million. These investments are highly liquid with maturity dates greater than three months at the date of purchase. We generally can access these investments in a relatively short time frame but in doing so we generally forfeit all earned and future interest income.

Discussion of Cash Flow

Our primary source of liquidity is cash flow from operations. Additional sources of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and our credit facilities. Our cash and cash equivalents increased from $258.4 million at December 31, 2019 to $503.2 million at June 30, 2020, reflecting the funds that will be used to consummate the purchase of LSC.  

The table below sets forth a summary of the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows:

	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2020			2019			Change
Net cash flows provided by operating activities	$	86,734		$	110,488		$	(23,754	)
Net cash and cash equivalents used in investing activities		(34,048	)		(82,517	)		48,469
Net cash and cash equivalents (used in) provided by financing activities		241,784			(32,955	)		274,739

Operating Activities

Net cash flows provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2020 was $86.7 million.  Net cash flows provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2020 resulted from net income of $41.8 million, depreciation and amortization of intangible assets of $53.9 million, share-based compensation of $12.4 million, partially offset by a decrease in inventories of $19.8 million and a decrease in noncash working capital accounts, excluding inventory, of $0.4 million. Net cash flows provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2019 was $110.5 million.  Net cash flows provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2019, resulted from net income of $68.4 million, depreciation and amortization of intangible assets of $54.4 million, share-based compensation of $9.8 million and a decrease in noncash working capital accounts of $21.5 million.

Investing Activities

Net cash and cash equivalents used in investing activities was $34.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. Net cash and cash equivalents used in investing activities was primarily due to the purchase of property, plant and equipment of $30.7 million and the additional investment by the Company’s subsidiary ERIS in Yea-Shin of $6.1 million, bring ERIS’ ownership of Yea-Shin to approximately 99.5%. These outflows of cash were partially offset by net proceeds from the maturity of short-term investments of $5.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. Net cash and cash equivalents used in investing activities was $82.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. Net cash and cash equivalents used in investing activities was primarily due to the purchase of property, plant and equipment of $50.7 and the acquisition of GFAB for $33.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2019.

Financing Activities

Net cash and cash equivalents provided by financing activities was $241.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. Net cash provided by financing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2020 consisted primarily of $249.1 million, net advances on our debt facilities, including $200.0 million in anticipation of closing the LSC acquisition later this year partially offset by taxes paid on net share settlements of $5.4 million.  Net cash and cash equivalents used in financing activities was $33.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. Net cash used in financing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2019 consisted primarily of $42.1 million, net repayments of long-term debt, taxes paid on net share settlements of $1.6 million and dividend distributions to noncontrolling interests of $1.2 million. 

Use of Derivative Instruments and Hedging

We use interest rate swaps, foreign exchange forward contracts and cross currency swaps to provide a level of protection against interest rate risks and foreign exchange exposure.

Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps, including interest rate collars, as part of its interest rate risk management strategy.  Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount.  

Hedges of Foreign Currency Risk

We are exposed to fluctuations in various foreign currencies against our different functional currencies. We use foreign currency forward agreements to manage this exposure and to preserve the economic value of foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities; these instruments are not designated for hedge accounting treatment in accordance with ASC No. 815.  The fair value of our foreign exchange hedges approximates zero.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any transactions, arrangements or other relationships with unconsolidated entities that will affect our liquidity or capital resources. We have no special purpose entities that provide off-balance sheet financing, liquidity or market or credit risk support, nor do we engage in leasing, swap agreements, or outsourcing of research and development services that could expose us to liability that is not reflected on the face of our financial statements.

Risk Factors

RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS

The success of our business depends on the strength of the global economy and the stability of the financial markets, and any weaknesses in these areas may have a material adverse effect on our net sales, operating results and financial condition.

During times of difficult market conditions, our fixed costs combined with lower net sales and lower profit margins may have a negative impact on our business, operating results and financial condition.

Downturns in the highly cyclical semiconductor industry or changes in end-market demand could adversely affect our operating results and financial condition.

The semiconductor business is highly competitive, and increased competition may harm our business, operating results and financial condition.

One of our external suppliers is also a related party. The loss of this supplier could harm our business, operating results and financial condition.

Delays in initiation of production at facilities due to implementing new production techniques or resolving problems associated with technical equipment malfunctions could adversely affect our manufacturing efficiencies, operating results and financial condition.

We are and will continue to be under continuous pressure from our customers and competitors to reduce the price of our products, which could adversely affect our growth and profit margins.

Our customers require our products to undergo a lengthy and expensive qualification process without any assurance of product sales and may demand to audit our operations from time to time.  A failure to qualify a product or a negative audit finding could adversely affect our net sales, operating results and financial condition.

Our customer orders are subject to cancellation or modification usually with no penalty. High volumes of order cancellation or reduction in quantities ordered could adversely affect our net sales, operating results and financial condition.

Production at our manufacturing facilities could be disrupted for a variety of reasons, including natural disasters and other extraordinary events, which could prevent us from producing enough of our products to maintain our sales and satisfy our customers’ demands and could adversely affect our operating results and financial condition.

New technologies could result in the development of new products by our competitors and a decrease in demand for our products, and we may not be able to develop new products to satisfy changes in demand, which would adversely affect our net sales, market share, operating results and financial condition.

We may be adversely affected by any disruption in our information technology systems, which could adversely affect our cash flows, operating results and financial condition.

We may be subject to claims of infringement of third-party intellectual property rights or demands that we license third-party technology, which could result in significant expense, reduction in our intellectual property rights and a negative impact on our business, operating results and financial condition.

We depend on third-party suppliers for timely deliveries of raw materials, manufacturing services, product and process development, parts and equipment, as well as finished products from other manufacturers, and our reputation with customers, operating results and financial condition could be adversely affected if we are unable to obtain adequate supplies in a timely manner.

If we do not succeed in continuing to vertically integrate our business, we will not realize the cost and other efficiencies we anticipate, which could adversely affect our ability to compete, our operating results and financial condition.

Part of our growth strategy involves identifying and acquiring companies. We may be unable to identify suitable acquisition candidates or consummate desired acquisitions and, if we do make any acquisitions, we may be unable to successfully integrate any acquired companies with our operations, which could adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition.

-31-

We are subject to litigation risks, including securities class action litigation and intellectual property litigation, which may be costly to defend and the outcome of which is uncertain and could adversely affect our business and financial condition.

We are subject to many environmental laws and regulations that could result in significant expenses and could adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition.

Our products, or products we purchase from third parties for resale, may be found to be defective and, as a result, warranty claims and product liability claims may be asserted against us and we may not have recourse against our suppliers, which may harm our business, reputation with our customers, operating results and financial condition.

We may fail to attract or retain the qualified technical, sales, marketing, finance and management/executive personnel required to operate our business successfully, which could adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition.

We may not be able to achieve future growth, and any such growth may place a strain on our management and on our systems and resources, which could adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition.

Obsolete inventories as a result of changes in demand for our products and change in life cycles of our products could adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition.

If our direct sales customers do not design our products into their applications, our net sales may be adversely affected.

Our hedging strategies may not be successful in mitigating our risks associated with interest rates or foreign exchange exposure or our counterparties might not perform as agreed.

We may have a significant amount of debt with various financial institutions worldwide. Any indebtedness could adversely affect our business, operating results, financial condition and our ability to meet payment obligations under such debt.

Restrictions in our credit facilities may limit our business and financial activities, including our ability to obtain additional capital in the future.

Our business benefits from certain Chinese government incentives. Expiration of, or changes to, these incentives could adversely affect our operating results and financial condition.

We operate a global business through numerous foreign subsidiaries, and there is a risk that tax authorities will challenge our transfer pricing methodologies or legal entity structures, which could adversely affect our operating results and financial condition.

The value of our benefit plan assets and liabilities is based on estimates and assumptions, which may prove inaccurate and the actual amount of expenses recorded in the consolidated financial statements could differ materially from the assumptions used.

Changes in actuarial assumptions for our defined benefit plan could increase the volatility of the plan’s asset value, require us to increase cash contributions to the plan and have a negative impact on our cash flows, operating results and financial condition.

Certain of our customers and suppliers require us to comply with their codes of conduct, which may include certain restrictions that may substantially increase our cost of doing business as well as have an adverse effect on our operating efficiencies, operating results and financial condition.

Compliance with government regulations and customer demands regarding the use of “conflict minerals” may result in increased costs and may have a negative impact on our business, operating results and financial condition.

There are risks associated with previous and future acquisitions. We may ultimately not be successful in overcoming these risks or any other problems encountered in connection with acquisitions.

-32-

If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal controls or discover material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, we may not be able to report our financial results accurately or detect fraud, which could harm our business and the trading price of our Common Stock.

Terrorist attacks, or threats or occurrences of other terrorist activities, whether in the U.S. or internationally, may affect the markets in which our Common Stock trades, the markets in which we operate and our operating results and financial condition.

System security risks, data protection breaches, cyber-attacks and other related cybersecurity issues could disrupt our internal operations, and any such disruption could reduce our expected net sales, increase our expenses, damage our reputation and adversely affect our stock price.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR INTERNATIONAL OPERATIONS

Our international operations subject us to risks that could adversely affect our operations.

We have significant operations and assets in China, the U.K., Germany, Hong Kong and Taiwan and, as a result, will be subject to risks inherent in doing business in those jurisdictions, which may adversely affect our financial performance and operating results.

Significant uncertainties related to changes in governmental policies and participation in international trading partnerships or economic unions currently exist, and, depending upon how such uncertainties are resolved, the changes could have a material adverse effect on us.

Tariffs or other restrictions imposed by the United States Trade Representative may affect our operations in the U.S., may disrupt our activities in the U.S., may have an adverse impact on our profitability and results of operations and may encourage the independent development in China of products and electronic components that will compete with or displace our products and components, resulting in an adverse impact on our Chinese business.

The U.K.’s exit from the European Union (“E.U.”) will continue to have uncertain effects and could adversely impact our business, results of operations and financial condition.

A slowdown in the Chinese economy could limit the growth in demand for electronic devices containing our products, which would have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and prospects.

Economic regulation in China could materially and adversely affect our business, operating results and prospects.

We could be adversely affected by violations of the United States’ Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, the U.K.’s Bribery Act 2010, China’s anti-corruption campaign and similar worldwide anti-bribery laws.

We are subject to foreign currency risk as a result of our international operations.

China is experiencing rapid social, political and economic change, which has increased labor costs and other related costs that could make doing business in China less advantageous than in prior years. Increased labor costs in China could adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition.

We may not continue to receive preferential tax treatment in Asia, thereby increasing our income tax expense and reducing our net income.

The distribution of any earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries may be subject to foreign income taxes, thus reducing our net income.

We could be adversely affected by the compromise or theft of our technology, know-how, data or intellectual property or a requirement that we yield rights in technology, know-how, data stored in foreign jurisdictions or intellectual property that we use in such foreign jurisdictions.

-33-

RISKS RELATED TO OUR COMMON STOCK

Variations in our quarterly operating results may cause our stock price to be volatile.

We may enter into future acquisitions and take certain actions in connection with such acquisitions that could adversely affect the price of our Common Stock.

Our directors, executive officers and significant stockholders hold a substantial portion of our Common Stock, which may lead to conflicts with other stockholders over corporate transactions and other corporate matters.

We were formed in 1959, and our early corporate records are incomplete. As a result, we may have difficulty in assessing and defending against claims relating to rights to our Common Stock purporting to arise during periods for which our records are incomplete.

Non-cash tender offers, debt equity swaps or equity exchanges to consummate our business activities are likely to have the effect of diluting the ownership interest of existing stockholders, including qualified stockholders who receive shares of our Common Stock in such business activities.

Anti-takeover effects of certain provisions of Delaware law and our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws, may hinder a take-over attempt.

Section 203 of Delaware General Corporation Law may deter a take-over attempt.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

There have been no material changes to our market risks as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, filed with the SEC on February 12, 2020.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Our Chief Executive Officer, Keh-Shew Lu, and Chief Financial Officer, Brett R. Whitmire, with the participation of our management, carried out an evaluation, as of June 30, 2020, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)). Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer believe that, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective at the reasonable assurance level to ensure that information required to be included in this report is:

• recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time period specified in the Commission’s rules and forms; and

• accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions on required disclosure.

Disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and implemented, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving an entity’s disclosure objectives. The likelihood of achieving such objectives is affected by limitations inherent in disclosure controls and procedures. These include the fact that human judgment in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns in internal control can occur because of human failures such as simple errors, mistakes or intentional circumvention of the established processes.

Changes in Controls over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting, known to our Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer, that occurred in the three months ended June 30, 2020, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

-35-

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

The Company is not a party to any pending litigation that we consider material.

From time to time, we are involved in various legal proceedings that arise in the normal course of business. While we intend to defend any lawsuit vigorously, we presently believe that the ultimate outcome of any pending legal proceeding will not have any material adverse effect on our financial position, cash flows or operating results. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and unfavorable rulings could occur. An unfavorable ruling could include monetary damages, which could impact our business and operating results for the period in which the ruling occurs or future periods.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

Except as identified in the additional Risk Factor set out below, there have been no material changes to our risk factors from those disclosed in the "Risk Factors" section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 12, 2020.

The ultimate impact of the COVID-19 pandemic outbreak cannot be estimated at this time, but it may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

In March 2020, the World Health Organization categorized COVID-19 as a pandemic, and the President of the United States declared the COVID-19 outbreak a national emergency. COVID-19 continues to spread throughout the United States and other countries across the world (including countries where we maintain operations), and the duration, severity of its effects and ultimate impact to the world’s population and financial impact are currently unknown. National, state and local governments have responded to the COVID-19 pandemic in a variety of ways, including, without limitation, by declaring states of emergency, restricting people from gathering in groups or interacting within a certain physical distance (i.e., social distancing), ordering businesses to close or limit operations and ordering people to stay at home (i.e., shelter in place), and imposing travel restrictions (including quarantine requirements).

Given these governmental actions, there is no assurance that we will be permitted to operate under every current or future government order or other restriction and in every location where we maintain operations and may be required to limit our operations at, or close, certain locations in the future. Any such long-term limitations or closures would have a material adverse impact on our ability to service our customers and on our business, financial condition and results of operations.  In particular, any long-term limitations on, or long-term closures of, our manufacturing facilities in Asia or Europe would have a negative adverse impact on our ability to manufacture, sell and ship products and service customers and would have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In the first quarter of 2020, following the extended Chinese New Year, we delayed the start of our manufacturing production in China and at the end of the first quarter of 2020 we temporarily closed our wafer fabrication facilities located in the United Kingdom. As of the date of this report, our operations in China and the United Kingdom have both resumed full production.  However, we can provide no assurances that those facilities or any of our other facilities may not suffer similar closures or disruptions in the future.

While the Company has already experienced negative impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic to its results of operations, cash flows and financial condition, in light of the current level of uncertainty over the economic and operational impacts of COVID-19 we cannot reasonably estimate the total impact that COVID-19 will have on our results of operations, cash flows or financial condition at this time. Risks and complications in the Company’s business from COVID-19 include, but are not limited to, changes in ordering patterns and demand for our products and losses in efficiency due to travel limitations and regulations compelling employees to work from home.  While the Company has not experienced a material increase in technology spending, if employees are forced to continue working remotely it could become necessary to increase information technology spending.  Although the Company has not experienced a significant business disruption due to teleworking arrangements, the imposition of increased self-isolation protocols could negatively impact the ability of employees to travel to the Company’s production facilities and possibly create ongoing business disruptions.  The limitations could negatively affect the Company’s ability to produce, sell and transport its products.  The Company’s consolidated financial statements presented herein reflect estimates and assumptions made by management that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and reported amounts of net sales and expenses during the reporting periods presented. Such estimates and assumptions affect, among other things, the Company’s goodwill, long-lived asset valuation and indefinite-lived intangible asset valuation; inventory valuation; equity investment valuation; assessment of the annual effective tax rate; valuation of deferred income taxes and income tax contingencies; the allowance for doubtful accounts; measurement of compensation cost for certain share-based awards and cash bonus

plans; and pension plan assumptions. In addition, depending on the extent and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic, healthcare insurance premiums could increase, increasing our healthcare costs.

In addition, the COVID-19 pandemic may cause disruptions, and in some cases severe disruptions, to the business and operations of our suppliers and customers as a result of quarantines, worker absenteeism as a result of illness or other factors, social distancing measures and other travel, health-related, business or other restrictions.  Certain of our customers and suppliers may in the future be required to close down or operate at a lower capacity, which would adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations. Because of the rapid onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, some of our customers could experience financial difficulties resulting in such customers being unable to pay for products they ordered from us before the COVID-19 pandemic emerged. There can be no assurance that any decrease in sales resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic will be offset by increased sales in the future.

PLEASE NOTE: It is inappropriate for investors to assume the accuracy of any covenants, representations or warranties that may be contained in agreements or other documents filed as exhibits to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. In certain instances the disclosure schedules to such agreements or documents contain information that modifies, qualifies and creates exceptions to the representations, warranties and covenants. Moreover, some of the representations and warranties may not be complete or accurate as of a particular date because they are subject to a contractual standard of materiality that is different from those generally applicable to stockholders and/or were used for the purpose of allocating risk among the parties rather than establishing certain matters as facts. Accordingly, you should not rely on the representations and warranties as characterizations of the actual state of facts at the time they were made or otherwise.

Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial data at December 31, 2019 is derived from audited financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 12, 2020 (“Form 10-K”). The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. They do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, operating results and cash flows in conformity with GAAP for complete financial statements. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes contained in our Form 10-K.  All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments and accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the operating results for the period presented have been included in the interim period. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for other interim periods or the year ending December 31, 2020.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates. As permitted under GAAP, interim accounting for certain expenses, including income taxes, are based on full year forecasts. For interim financial reporting purposes, income taxes are recorded based upon estimated annual effective income tax rates taking into consideration discrete items occurring in a quarter.

Dollar amounts and share amounts are presented in thousands, except per share amounts, unless otherwise noted. Certain prior year’s balances may have been reclassified to conform to the current financial statement presentation.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards (“FASB”) Update (“ASU”) No. 2020-04 Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848). ASU No. 2020-04 contains practical expedients for reference rate reform related activities that impact debt, leases, derivatives and other contracts. The guidance in ASU No. 2020-04 is optional and may be elected over time as reference rate reform activities occur. During the second quarter of 2020; the Company elected to apply the hedge accounting expedients related to probability and the assessments of effectiveness for future LIBOR-indexed cash flows to assume that the index upon which future hedged transactions will be based matches the index on the corresponding derivatives. Application of these expedients preserves the presentation of derivatives consistent with past presentation. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of the guidance and may apply other elections as applicable as additional changes in the market occur.  

In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-13, which requires measurement and recognition of expected credit losses for financial assets held. We adopted ASU No. 2016-13 effective January 1, 2020. The adoption of ASU No. 2016-13 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

Earnings Per Share

NOTE 2 – Earnings per Share

Earnings per share (“EPS”) is calculated by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is calculated similarly but includes potential dilution from the exercise of stock options and stock awards, except when the effect would be anti-dilutive.  During the three and six month ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 we paid no dividends on our Common Stock.

The table below sets forth the reconciliation between net income and the weighted average shares outstanding used for calculating basic and diluted EPS:

Diluted	$	0.01		$	(0.01	)	$	0.03		$	(0.02	)

    The decrease in the effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 when compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, is primarily attributable to a decrease in non-U.S. withholding taxes and a net increase in favorable U.S. permanent differences.      

Our undistributed foreign earnings continue to be indefinitely reinvested in foreign operations, with limited exceptions related to earnings of certain European and Asian subsidiaries.  Any future distributions of foreign earnings will not be subject to additional U.S. income tax, but may be subject to non-U.S. withholding taxes.

         We file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and in various state and foreign jurisdictions. We are no longer subject to U.S. federal income tax examinations by tax authorities for tax years before 2012, or for the 2015 tax year. We are no longer subject to China income tax examinations by tax authorities for tax years before 2010. With respect to state and local jurisdictions and countries outside of the U.S. (other than China), with limited exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to income tax audits for years before 2014. Although the outcome of tax audits is always uncertain, the Company believes that adequate amounts of tax, interest and penalties, if any, have been provided for in the Company’s reserve for any adjustments that may result from currently pending tax audits. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense. As of June 30, 2020, the gross amount of unrecognized tax benefits was approximately $39.6 million.   

It is reasonably possible that the amount of the unrecognized benefit with respect to certain of the Company’s unrecognized tax positions will significantly increase or decrease within the next 12 months. At this time, an estimate of the range of the reasonably possible outcomes cannot be made.

In response to the outbreak of the novel strain of coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic, the United States Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act was enacted on March 27, 2020.  We do not expect the CARES Act to have a material impact on our financial statements because we do not qualify for most of the relief provisions prescribed in the CARES Act. We will continue to assess the impacts of the CARES Act and any other legislation adopted by the United States government or other applicable governmental agencies in response to COVID-19 as additional guidance is published by the relevant authorities.

Share Based Compensation [Abstract]

Share-Based Compensation

NOTE 6 – Share-Based Compensation

All share-based compensation is attributable to share grants.  All outstanding stock options are fully vested, and all expense related to stock options has been recognized in previous periods. Approximately $1.1 million of cash proceeds were received from stock option exercises during the six months ended June 30, 2020. The table below sets forth the line items where share-based compensation expense was recorded:

	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
	June 30,				June 30,
	2020		2019		2020		2019
Cost of goods sold	$	257	$	259	$	530	$	384
Selling, general and administrative		6,715		4,309		10,426		7,946
Research and development		729		730		1,438		1,445
Total share-based compensation expense	$	7,701	$	5,298	$	12,394	$	9,775

Share Grants – Restricted stock awards and restricted stock units generally vest in equal annual installments over a four-year period. All new grants are granted under the Company’s 2013 Equity Incentive Plan, and there will be no additional share grants under the 2001 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan. Restricted stock grants are measured based on the fair market value of the underlying stock on the date of grant, and compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite four-year service period.  During the second quarter of 2020, in connection with the retirement of a member of the Company’s board of directors, the Company modified that director’s unvested RSU grants to vest upon his retirement.  The shares subject to the modified grants will be released to that board member as if they were vesting under the original vesting timeline.  In connection with this modification, the Company recorded additional expense of approximately $1.7 million.  

Performance stock units (“PSUs”) are measured based on the fair market value of the underlying stock on the date of grant and compensation expense is recognized over the three-year performance period, with adjustments made to the expense to recognize the probable payout percentage. PSUs will vest upon the Company achieving a cumulative 3-year non-GAAP operating income target for the applicable periods.

As of June 30, 2020, total unrecognized share-based compensation expense related to share grants was approximately $43.5 million, before income taxes, and is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 2.1 years.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]

Segment Information and Net Sales

NOTE 7 – Segment Information and Net Sales

Segment Reporting. For financial reporting purposes, we operate in a single segment, standard semiconductor products, through our various manufacturing and distribution facilities. We aggregate our products because the products are similar and have similar economic characteristics, use similar production processes and share the same customer type. Our primary operations include operations in Asia, North America and Europe.  During the three months ended June 30, 2019, one customer, a broad-based global distributor that sells to thousands of different end users, accounted for 10% or $31.5 million of our net sales.  No customer accounted for 10% or greater of our net sales during any other period presented. No customer accounted for 10% or more of our outstanding accounts receivable at any point in the periods presented in this report.  

The tables below set forth net sales based on the location of the subsidiary producing the net sale.

Disaggregation of Net Sales. We disaggregate net sales from contracts with customers into direct sales and distribution sales (“Distributors”) and by geographic area. Direct sales customers consist of those customers using our product in their manufacturing process, and Distributors are those customers who resell our products to third parties. We deliver our products to customers around the world for use in consumer electronics, computing, communications, industrial and automotive. Further, most of our contracts are fixed-price arrangements, and are short term in nature, ranging from days to several months.

The tables below set forth net sales for the Company disaggregated into geographic locations based on shipment and by type (direct sales or Distributor) for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019:

Our Asia subsidiaries maintain credit facilities with several financial institutions through our foreign entities worldwide totaling $165.5 million. Other than two Taiwanese credit facilities that are collateralized by assets, our foreign credit lines are unsecured, uncommitted, repayable on demand, terminable by the lender at any time and contain no restrictive covenants.  Interest payments are due monthly on outstanding amounts under the credit lines. The unused and available credit under the various facilities as of June 30, 2020, was approximately $101.4  million, net of a $63.7  million advanced under our foreign credit lines and $0.4 million credit used for import and export guarantee. In connection with our Asia credit facilities $51.4 million of cash deposits have been restricted in support of a corresponding loan amount.

On May 29, 2020, the Company, Diodes Holding B.V. (the “Foreign Borrower” and, collectively with the Company, the “Borrowers”), and certain subsidiaries of the Company as guarantors, entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) that amends and restates that certain Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of October 26, 2016 (as amended, modified and/or supplemented from time to time prior May 29, 2020, the “Existing Credit Agreement”).  Certain capitalized terms used in this description of the Credit Agreement have the meanings given to them in the Credit Agreement. The Company analyzed this amendment pursuant to the guidance in ASC No. 470-50, Debt—Modifications and Extinguishments. The Company determined that certain lenders had changes in cash flows which were substantially different as a result of the amendment, which resulted in a debt extinguishment of $52.2 million and a loss on extinguishment and third-party fees of $0.7 million being expensed in the three-month period ended June 30, 2020.  

The Credit Agreement rebalances the Company’s existing senior credit facilities under the Existing Credit Agreement from (x) aggregate credit facilities of $500,000,000, consisting of (A) a $250,000,000 revolving senior credit facility, which included a $10,000,000 swing line sublimit, a $10,000,000 letter of credit sublimit, and a $20,000,000 alternative currency sublimit, and (B) a $250,000,000 term loan to (y) aggregate credit facilities of $670,000,000 consisting of (A) an acquisition draw term commitment of $340,000,000 (the “Acquisition Draw Term Commitment”), (B) an initial term commitment of $180,000,000 (the “Initial Term Commitment” and, together with the Acquisition Draw Term Commitment, the “Term Loan”) and (C) a $150,000,000 revolving

senior credit facility (the “Revolver”), which includes a $20,000,000 uncommitted swing line submit, a $10,000,000 letter of credit sublimit, and a $40,000,000 alternative currency sublimit.

The Revolver and the Term Loan mature on May 29, 2023 (the “Maturity Date”).  Both the term loan portion and the revolving portion of the Credit Agreement bear an interest rate at LIBOR or similar other indices plus a specified margin. The Company plans to use a portion of the proceeds available under the Revolver and the Term Loan (i) to finance the Company’s previously announced acquisition of Lite-On Semiconductor Corporation, (ii) to refinance certain existing indebtedness of the Borrowers and their subsidiaries under the Existing Credit Agreement and (iii) for working capital, capital expenditures, and other lawful corporate purposes, including, without limitation, financing permitted acquisitions.

The Credit Agreement contains certain financial and non-financial covenants, including, but not limited to, a maximum Consolidated Leverage Ratio, a minimum Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, and restrictions on liens, indebtedness, investments, fundamental changes, dispositions, and restricted payments (including dividends and share repurchases). These covenants are generally similar to the corresponding covenants in the Existing Credit Agreement, except that certain amounts permitted as exceptions to negative covenants restricting liens, indebtedness, investments, dispositions and restricted payments have been revised, and additional exceptions to certain negative covenants have been added, including increased capacity for certain intercompany Indebtedness and Investment (including existing Lite-On Indebtedness), and the right to enter into certain securitization transactions and receivables facilities, subject to limitations set forth in the Credit Agreement.  Furthermore, under the Credit Agreement, restricted payments, including dividends and share repurchases, are permitted in certain circumstances, including while the pro forma Consolidated Leverage Ratio is, both before and after giving effect to any such restricted payment, at least 0.25 to 1.00 less than the maximum permitted under the Credit Agreement.

In addition to the liquidity provided by the Credit Agreement, our 51% owned subsidiary, ERIS Technology Corporation (“ERIS”), borrowed $13.7 million through a short-term loan and $27.0 million on a long-term basis from local Taiwan banks.  The ERIS debt matures in periods from 2020 through 2033.

Borrowings outstanding as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, are set forth in the table below:

	June 30,			December 31,				Current Amount

Commitments and Contingencies

NOTE 9 – Commitments and Contingencies

Purchase commitments – As of June 30, 2020, we had approximately $26.8 million in non-cancelable purchase contracts related to capital expenditures, primarily related to our manufacturing facilities in Asia.  As of June 30, 2020, we also had a commitment to purchase approximately $29.8 million of wafers to be used in our manufacturing process.  These wafer purchases will occur during 2020.

Defined Benefit Plan - We have a contributory defined benefit plan that covers certain employees in the United Kingdom.  As of June 30, 2020, the unfunded liability for this defined benefit plan was approximately $28.7 million.  An actuarial valuation was performed as of March 31, 2019, resulting in a deficit of approximately GBP 26.7 million (approximately $27.9 million based on a GBP: USD exchange rate of 1.2:1). As a result of this valuation we have agreed to a revised schedule of contributions of GBP 2.0 million (approximately $2.4 million based on a GBP: USD exchange rate of 1.2:1) to be paid in annual installments with

effect from April 1, 2020 to address the deficit revealed by the valuation (with the first payment made by March 31, 2021, and payments to be made by December 31 each year thereafter). These contributions, together with the assumed asset outperformance, are expected to eliminate the deficit by December 31, 2028. Further, we will pay GBP 0.2 million in annual installments effective April 1, 2020 to cover expenses.

Contingencies – From time to time, we are involved in various legal proceedings that arise in the normal course of business. While we intend to defend any lawsuit vigorously, we presently believe that the ultimate outcome of any pending legal proceeding will not have any material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, cash flows or operating results. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and unfavorable rulings could occur. An unfavorable ruling could include monetary damages, which could impact our business and operating results for the period in which the ruling occurs or future periods.  Based on information available, we evaluate the likelihood of potential outcomes of all pending disputes. We record an appropriate liability when the amount of any liability associated with a pending dispute is deemed probable and reasonably estimable. In addition, we do not accrue for estimated legal fees and other directly related costs as they are expensed as incurred.  The Company is not currently a party to any pending litigation that the Company considers material.

Derivative Financial Instruments

Note 10 – Derivative Financial Instruments

We use derivative instruments to manage risks related to foreign currencies, interest rates and the net investment risk in our foreign subsidiaries. Our objectives for holding derivatives include reducing, eliminating, and efficiently managing the economic impact of these exposures as effectively as possible. Our derivative programs include strategies that both qualify and do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment.

Hedges of Foreign Currency Risk - We are exposed to fluctuations in various foreign currencies against our different functional currencies. We use foreign currency forward agreements to manage this exposure. At June 30, 2020, and December 31, 2019, we had $93.0 million and $105.9 million, respectively, outstanding foreign currency forward contracts that are intended to preserve the economic value of foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities; these instruments are not designated for hedge accounting treatment in accordance with ASC No. 815.  The fair value of these instruments approximates zero.   

Hedges of Interest Rate and Net Investment Risk -The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish these objectives, the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps, including interest rate collars, as part of its interest rate risk management strategy.  Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount.  

The table below sets forth the fair value of the Company’s interest rate related derivative financial instruments as well as their classification on our condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019:

Note 14 –Acquisitions

Savitech Acquisition

On February 5, 2020, the Company entered into an agreement to invest up to approximately $14.2 million to acquire at least 51% of Savitech Corporation (“Savitech”), a fabless semiconductor design company located in Zhubei City, Taiwan.  The Company will make the investment in two tranches.  The first tranche of $5.6 million, which provided the Company with a 33.6% ownership of Savitech, was made on March 4, 2020.  The initial tranche was funded with cash on hand. The second tranche, currently recorded in other long-term liabilities, as shown in the table below, and currently valued at $8.4 million will increase the Company’s ownership to at least 51% of Savitech. The second tranche will be paid on June 30, 2021, provided Savitech achieves previously agreed-to revenue levels.  If revenue levels are not achieved the Company will pay less than the maximum $8.6 million, but regardless of the amount paid for the second tranche, the Company will still acquire at least 51% of Savitech.

The Company recorded the purchase of Savitech as a business acquisition and will consolidate Savitech into its operations, based on the voting model, with a non-controlling interest related to the interest the Company does not own in Savitech. The Company made its investment in Savitech in order to increase the Company’s integrated circuit business.   Total purchase consideration recorded was $13.9 million. The goodwill will not be tax deductible. The Company also incurred acquisition costs of approximately $0.1 million that were recognized in selling, general and administrative expense. The table below sets forth the fair value of the assets and liabilities recorded in the acquisition and the corresponding line item in which the item is recorded in our condensed consolidated balance sheet at the date of acquisition. The acquisition accounting is not final as deferred taxes, the contingent consideration payment and goodwill are being finalized.  We expect the acquisition accounting to be finalized in the third quarter of 2020.

Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial data at December 31, 2019 is derived from audited financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 12, 2020 (“Form 10-K”). The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. They do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, operating results and cash flows in conformity with GAAP for complete financial statements. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes contained in our Form 10-K.  All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments and accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the operating results for the period presented have been included in the interim period. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for other interim periods or the year ending December 31, 2020.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates. As permitted under GAAP, interim accounting for certain expenses, including income taxes, are based on full year forecasts. For interim financial reporting purposes, income taxes are recorded based upon estimated annual effective income tax rates taking into consideration discrete items occurring in a quarter.

Dollar amounts and share amounts are presented in thousands, except per share amounts, unless otherwise noted. Certain prior year’s balances may have been reclassified to conform to the current financial statement presentation.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards (“FASB”) Update (“ASU”) No. 2020-04 Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848). ASU No. 2020-04 contains practical expedients for reference rate reform related activities that impact debt, leases, derivatives and other contracts. The guidance in ASU No. 2020-04 is optional and may be elected over time as reference rate reform activities occur. During the second quarter of 2020; the Company elected to apply the hedge accounting expedients related to probability and the assessments of effectiveness for future LIBOR-indexed cash flows to assume that the index upon which future hedged transactions will be based matches the index on the corresponding derivatives. Application of these expedients preserves the presentation of derivatives consistent with past presentation. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of the guidance and may apply other elections as applicable as additional changes in the market occur.  

In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-13, which requires measurement and recognition of expected credit losses for financial assets held. We adopted ASU No. 2016-13 effective January 1, 2020. The adoption of ASU No. 2016-13 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Defined benefit plan, estimated future employer contributions in current fiscal year, description	We have a contributory defined benefit plan that covers certain employees in the United Kingdom.  As of June 30, 2020, the unfunded liability for this defined benefit plan was approximately $28.7 million.  An actuarial valuation was performed as of March 31, 2019, resulting in a deficit of approximately GBP 26.7 million (approximately $27.9 million based on a GBP: USD exchange rate of 1.2:1). As a result of this valuation we have agreed to a revised schedule of contributions of GBP 2.0 million (approximately $2.4 million based on a GBP: USD exchange rate of 1.2:1) to be paid in annual installments with effect from April 1, 2020 to address the deficit revealed by the valuation (with the first payment made by March 31, 2021, and payments to be made by December 31 each year thereafter). These contributions, together with the assumed asset outperformance, are expected to eliminate the deficit by December 31, 2028. Further, we will pay GBP 0.2 million in annual installments effective April 1, 2020 to cover expenses.

Objectives for using derivative instruments	The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish these objectives, the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps, including interest rate collars, as part of its interest rate risk management strategy.  Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount.
