REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of

Tektronix, Inc.

Beaverton, Oregon

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Tektronix, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of May 26, 2007 and May 27, 2006, and the related consolidated statements of operations, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for the fiscal years ended May 26, 2007, May 27, 2006, and May 28, 2005. Our audits also included the consolidated financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 15(a)2. These financial statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial statements and financial statement schedule based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Tektronix, Inc. and subsidiaries as of May 26, 2007 and May 27, 2006, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the fiscal years ended May 26, 2007, May 27, 2006, and May 28, 2005, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also, in our opinion, such consolidated financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein.

As discussed in Notes 3 and 5 to the consolidated financial statements, on May 28, 2006, the Company changed its method of accounting for share-based compensation upon the adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123 (Revised 2004), Share-Based Payment. As discussed in Notes 3 and 26 to the consolidated financial statements, on May 26, 2007, the Company changed its method of accounting for defined benefit pension and other postretirement plans upon the adoption of SFAS No. 158, Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plansan amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106, and 132(R).

As discussed in Note 26, the plan assets of the defined benefit pension plan included investments in real estate, absolute return funds, and private equity valued at $119.9 million, whose fair values have been estimated by management in the absence of readily determinable fair values. Management’s estimates are based on information provided by the fund managers or the general partners. The value of plan assets directly affects funded status of the defined benefit plans recorded in the financial statements.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of May 26, 2007, based on the criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated July 23, 2007 expressed an unqualified opinion on management’s assessment of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting and an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Tektronix, Inc.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

 

1. The Company

Tektronix is a leading supplier of test, measurement, and monitoring products, solutions and services for the communications, computer, and semiconductor industries – as well as military/aerospace, consumer electronics, education and a broad range of other industries worldwide. With over 60 years of experience, Tektronix provides general purpose test and measurement; video test, measurement, and monitoring; and communications network management and diagnostic products that enable Tektronix’ customers to design, build, deploy, and manage next-generation global communications networks, computing, pervasive, and advanced technologies. Tektronix derives revenue principally by developing, manufacturing, and selling a broad range of products and related components, support services, and accessories.

Tektronix is organized around two business platforms: the Instruments Business and the Communications Business. The Instruments Business includes general purpose test and measurement products; video test, measurement, and monitoring products; and Maxtek Components Corporation, which manufactures sophisticated hybrid circuits for internal use and for external sale. The Communications Business includes telecommunications network management solutions and services and network diagnostics products.

Tektronix maintains operations and conducts business in four major geographies: the Americas, Europe, the Pacific, and Japan.

 

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Financial statement presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Tektronix and its subsidiaries. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period’s presentation with no effect on previously reported earnings. Tektronix’ fiscal year is the 52 or 53 weeks ending the last Saturday in May. Fiscal years 2007, 2006, and 2005 included 52 weeks. Fiscal year 2008 will be the 53 weeks ending May 31, 2008. Unless otherwise stated, all dates and references to years or quarters refer to Tektronix’ fiscal years or fiscal quarters.

Use of estimates

The presentation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions, including those used to record the results of discontinued operations, affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the revenues and expenses reported during the period. Examples include revenue recognition; share-based compensation; the allowance for doubtful accounts; product warranty accrual; estimates of contingencies; intangible asset valuation; inventory valuation; pension plan assumptions; the determination of other-than-temporary investment impairments; and the valuation of deferred income taxes and income tax contingencies. Actual results may differ from estimated amounts.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash deposits in banks and highly-liquid investments with maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase. Tektronix places its temporary cash investments with high credit quality financial institutions. The majority of cash deposits and temporary cash investments are not covered by available depository insurance.

Trade accounts receivable, net

Trade accounts receivable, which are reduced by an allowance for doubtful accounts, are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. The allowance for doubtful accounts is Tektronix’ best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in the existing accounts receivable. Tektronix determines the allowance for doubtful accounts based on past transactions history, customer specific experience, and other factors.

 

7


Marketable investments

Short-term marketable investments include debt securities with maturities of greater than three months at the date of acquisition and less than one year at the balance sheet date. Long-term marketable investments include investments with maturities of greater than one year.

At May 26, 2007 and May 27, 2006, marketable investments were classified as available-for-sale and reported at fair market value with the related unrealized holdings gains and losses excluded from earnings and included, net of deferred income taxes, in Accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The specific identification method is used to recognize realized gains and losses on the sale of marketable investments.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined based on a standard cost method, which approximates actual cost on a first-in, first-out basis. Market is determined based on net realizable value. Tektronix’ definitions of materials and work in process have changed and amounts in Note 11 “Inventories” have been updated accordingly. Inventory now transfers from materials to work in process when it is used in production, whereas previously it had been considered work in process when available for production. Tektronix regularly reviews its inventory for obsolete or slow-moving items.

Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is based on the estimated useful lives of the assets, ranging from ten to forty years for buildings and two to seven years for machinery and equipment, and is provided using the straight-line method.

Income taxes

Income taxes are accounted for using an asset and liability approach, which requires the recognition of taxes payable or refundable for the current fiscal year and deferred tax assets and liabilities for the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in Tektronix’ consolidated financial statements or tax returns. Deferred income taxes, reflecting the impact of temporary differences between assets and liabilities recognized for financial reporting and tax purposes, are based on tax laws currently enacted. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

Tektronix is subject to ongoing tax examinations of its tax returns by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) and other tax authorities in various jurisdictions. The liabilities associated with years subject to income tax audits will ultimately be resolved when events such as the completion of audits by the taxing jurisdictions occur. Tektronix believes that an appropriate liability has been established for estimated exposures; however, actual results may differ materially from these estimates. The liabilities are regularly reviewed for their adequacy and appropriateness.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill and intangible assets are accounted for in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 141, “Business Combinations,” and SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.” Tektronix performed its annual goodwill impairment analysis during the second quarter of 2007 and identified no impairment. SFAS No. 142 requires purchased intangible assets, other than goodwill, to be amortized over their estimated useful lives, unless an asset has an indefinite life. Purchased intangible assets with finite useful lives are carried at cost less accumulated amortization. Amortization expense is recognized over the estimated useful lives of the intangible assets, mostly over three to five years.

For software-related intangible assets with finite useful lives, Tektronix amortizes the cost over the estimated economic life of the software product and assesses impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 86, “Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to Be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed.” At each balance sheet date, the unamortized cost of the software-related intangible asset is compared to its net realizable value. The net realizable value is the estimated future gross revenues from the software product reduced by the estimated future costs of completing and disposing of that product, including the costs of performing maintenance and customer support. The excess of the unamortized cost over the net realizable value would then be recognized as an impairment loss. Amortization expense for intangible assets that are software-related developed technology is recorded as Cost of sales on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Tektronix does not amortize intangible assets with indefinite useful lives. However, Tektronix reevaluates these intangible assets each reporting period. If Tektronix subsequently determines that a nonamortizable intangible asset has a finite useful life, the intangible asset will be written down to the lower of its fair value or carrying amount and then amortized over its remaining useful life on a prospective basis. Tektronix reviews nonamortizable intangible assets annually for impairment and more frequently if events or circumstances indicate that the intangible asset may be impaired. The impairment test includes a comparison of the fair value of the nonamortizable intangible asset with its carrying value. An impairment loss would be recognized as a charge to continuing operations if the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the nonamortizable intangible asset. The balance of nonamortizable intangible assets of $11.2 million as of May 26, 2007 resulted primarily from the Inet acquisition during the second quarter of 2005. The nonamortizable intangible assets were recorded at their fair values as of the acquisition date and no events or circumstances have arisen that would indicate that the nonamortizable intangible assets may be impaired. Tektronix performs its annual nonamortizable intangible asset impairment test when it completes its annual goodwill impairment test in the second quarter of each fiscal year.

Impairment of long-lived assets

Long-lived assets and intangibles with finite useful lives are reviewed for impairment when events or circumstances indicate costs may not be recoverable. Impairment exists when the carrying value of the asset is greater than the pre-tax undiscounted future cash flows expected to be provided by the asset. If impairment exists, the asset is written down to its fair value. Fair value is determined through quoted market values or through the calculation of the pre-tax present value of future cash flows expected to be provided by the asset.

Revenue recognition

Tektronix recognizes product revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collection is probable. Delivery is considered to have been met when title and risk of loss have transferred to the customer. These criteria are met for the majority of Tektronix’ product sales at the time the product is shipped. Upon shipment, Tektronix also provides for estimated costs that may be incurred for product warranties and for sales returns. When other significant obligations or acceptance terms remain after products are delivered, revenue is recognized only after such obligations are fulfilled or acceptance by the customer has occurred.

Contracts for network management solution products often involve multiple deliverables. Tektronix determines the fair value of each of the contract deliverables using vendor-specific objective evidence (“VSOE”). VSOE for each element of the contract is based on the price for which Tektronix sells the element on a stand-alone basis. In addition to hardware and software products, elements of the contracts include product support services such as the correction of software problems, hardware replacement, telephone access to Tektronix’ technical personnel and the right to receive unspecified product updates, upgrades and enhancements, when and if they become available. Revenues from these services, including post-contract support included in initial licensing fees, are recognized ratably over the service periods. Post-contract support included in the initial licensing fee is allocated from the total contract amount based on the fair value of these services determined using VSOE. If Tektronix determines that it does not have VSOE on an undelivered element of an arrangement, Tektronix will not recognize revenue until all elements of the arrangement that do not have VSOE are delivered. This occurrence could materially impact Tektronix’ financial results because of the significant dollar amount of many of its contracts and the significant portion of total revenues that a single contract may represent in any particular period.

Revenue earned from service is recognized ratably over the contractual service periods or as the services are performed. Shipping and handling costs are recorded as Cost of sales on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Amounts billed or collected in advance of the period in which the related product or service qualifies for revenue recognition are recorded as Deferred revenue on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Advertising

Advertising production and placement costs are expensed when incurred. Advertising expenses were $13.8 million, $12.8 million and $11.7 million in 2007, 2006, and 2005, respectively.

Environmental costs

Environmental costs are accrued and expensed when environmental assessments are made or remedial efforts are probable and when the related costs can be reasonably estimated. Environmental liability accruals are calculated as the best estimate of costs expected to be incurred or if this estimate can only be identified within a range and no specific amount within that range is determined more likely than any other amount within the range, the minimum of the range is accrued. Actual costs incurred may vary from these estimates due to the inherent uncertainties involved. Accrued environmental costs are recorded in Accounts payable and accrued liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Foreign currency translation

Assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries that operate in a local currency environment are translated into U.S. dollars at period-end exchange rates. Income and expense accounts are translated at the average exchange rate during the period. Adjustments arising from the translation of assets and liabilities are accumulated as a separate component of Accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income in Shareholders’ equity on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Derivatives

Tektronix utilizes derivative financial instruments, primarily forward foreign currency exchange contracts, to reduce the impact of foreign currency exchange rate risks where natural hedging strategies cannot be effectively employed. The notional or contract amounts of the hedging instruments do not represent amounts exchanged by the parties and, thus, are not a measure of Tektronix’ exposure due to the use of derivatives. Tektronix’ forward exchange contracts have generally ranged from one to three months in original maturity, and no forward exchange contract has had an original maturity greater than one year.

Tektronix does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. The purpose of Tektronix’ hedging activities is to reduce the risk that the eventual cash flows of the underlying assets, liabilities and firm commitments will be adversely affected by changes in exchange rates. In general, Tektronix’ derivative activities do not create foreign currency exchange rate risk because fluctuations in the value of the instruments used for hedging purposes are offset by fluctuations in the value of the underlying exposures being hedged. Counterparties to derivative financial instruments expose Tektronix to credit-related losses in the event of nonperformance. However, Tektronix has entered into these instruments with creditworthy financial institutions and considers the risk of nonperformance to be remote.

All derivatives, including foreign currency exchange contracts are recognized on the balance sheet at fair value. Derivatives that do not qualify as hedges for accounting purposes are recorded at fair value through earnings. If a derivative is a hedge for accounting purposes, depending on the nature of the hedge, changes in the fair value of the derivative are either offset against the change in fair value of underlying assets or liabilities through earnings or recognized in Accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income until the underlying hedged item is recognized in earnings. The ineffective portion of a hedging derivative’s change in fair value is immediately recognized in earnings. At May 26, 2007, Tektronix did not designate any derivative financial instruments as a hedge for accounting purposes.

3. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 151, “Inventory Costs, an amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4.” SFAS No. 151 amends the guidance in Accounting Research Bulletin (“ARB”) No. 43, Chapter 4, “Inventory Pricing,” to clarify the accounting for abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs, and wasted material (spoilage). Paragraph 5 of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4, previously stated that “…under some circumstances, items such as idle facility expense, excessive spoilage, double freight, and rehandling costs may be so abnormal as to require treatment as current period charges….” SFAS No. 151 requires that those items be recognized as current period charges regardless of whether they meet the criterion of “so abnormal.” In addition, SFAS No. 151 requires that allocation of fixed production overheads to the costs of conversion be based on the normal capacity of the production facilities. Tektronix adopted SFAS No. 151 beginning with the first quarter of fiscal year 2007 without a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (Revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS No. 123R”). This pronouncement requires compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions be recognized in financial statements. Prior to May 28, 2006, Tektronix accounted for stock-based compensation according to Accounting Principles Board Opinion (“APB”) No. 25. On May 28, 2006, Tektronix adopted SFAS No. 123R. See Note 5 “Share-Based Compensation” for a description of the effects on Tektronix’ results of operations and financial position.

In June 2005, the FASB issued SFAS No. 154, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections—a replacement of APB No. 20 and FASB Statement No. 3.” SFAS No. 154 supersedes APB No. 20, “Accounting Changes,” and SFAS No. 3, “Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements.” This statement applies to all voluntary changes in accounting principle and changes required by an accounting pronouncement in the unusual instance that the pronouncement does not include specific transition provisions. SFAS No. 154 requires retrospective application to prior periods’ financial statements of changes in accounting principle, unless this would be impracticable. When it is impracticable to determine the period-specific effects of an accounting change on one or more individual prior periods presented, this statement requires that the new accounting principle be applied to the balances of assets and liabilities as of the beginning of the earliest period for which retrospective application is practicable. This statement also requires that if an entity changes its method of depreciation, amortization, or depletion for long-lived, nonfinancial assets, the change must be accounted for as a change in accounting estimate. Tektronix adopted SFAS No. 154 beginning with the first quarter of fiscal year 2007 without a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.

In July 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation (“FIN”) No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109.” This interpretation clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an entity’s financial statements in accordance with SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes.” It prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for financial statement disclosure of tax positions taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Tektronix will be required to adopt this interpretation in the first quarter of fiscal year 2008. Management is currently evaluating the requirements of FIN No. 48 and has not yet determined the impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In September 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 108 regarding the process of quantifying financial statement misstatements. SAB No. 108 states that registrants should use both a balance sheet approach and an income statement approach when quantifying and evaluating the materiality of a misstatement. The interpretations in SAB No. 108 contain guidance on correcting errors under the dual approach as well as provide transition guidance for correcting errors. This interpretation does not change the requirements within SFAS No. 154 for the correction of an error on financial statements. Tektronix adopted SAB No. 108 in fiscal year 2007 without a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements.” This standard defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and expands disclosure about fair value measurements. This pronouncement applies under other accounting standards that require or permit fair value measurements. Accordingly, this statement does not require any new fair value measurement. Tektronix will be required to adopt SFAS No. 157 in the first quarter of fiscal year 2009. Management is currently evaluating the requirements of SFAS No. 157 and has not yet determined the impact on the consolidated financial statements.

 

11


In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 158, “Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans—an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106, and 132(R).” This pronouncement requires an employer to recognize the overfunded or underfunded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan (other than a multiemployer plan) as an asset or liability on its statement of financial position using prospective application. SFAS No. 158 also requires an employer to recognize changes in that funded status in the year in which the changes occur through comprehensive income. In addition, this statement requires an employer to measure the funded status of a plan as of the date of its year-end statement of financial position, with limited exceptions. Tektronix adopted this statement on May 26, 2007, the end of fiscal year 2007. See Note 26 “Benefit Plans” for further information.

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities—including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115.” This standard permits an entity to measure many financial instruments and certain other assets and liabilities at fair value on an instrument-by-instrument basis. Tektronix will be required to adopt SFAS No. 159 in the first quarter of fiscal year 2009. Management is currently evaluating the requirements of SFAS No. 159 and has not yet determined the impact on the consolidated financial statements.

 

4. Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is calculated based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period, excluding non-vested shares. Diluted earnings per share is calculated based on these same weighted average shares outstanding plus the effect of potentially dilutive share-based awards as calculated using the treasury stock method. Share-based awards are excluded from the calculation to the extent their effect would be antidilutive.

Earnings per share for fiscal years ended May 26, 2007, May 27, 2006, and May 28, 2005 were as follows:

 

(In thousands, except per share amounts)

   2007    2006    2005

Net earnings

   $ 90,408    $ 92,355    $ 81,596
                    

Weighted average shares used for basic earnings per share

     80,210      83,323      86,803

Incremental dilutive stock options

     1,605      1,058      1,348
                    

Weighted average shares used for diluted earnings per share

     81,815      84,381      88,151
                    

Earnings per share:

        

Net earnings—basic

   $ 1.13    $ 1.11    $ 0.94

Net earnings—diluted

   $ 1.11    $ 1.09    $ 0.93

Awards of options and nonvested shares representing an additional 8.1 million, 7.2 million, and 4.9 million shares of common stock were outstanding at May 26, 2007, May 27, 2006, and May 28, 2005, respectively, but were not included in the calculation of diluted net earnings per share because their effect would have been antidilutive.

5. Share-Based Compensation

On May 28, 2006, Tektronix adopted SFAS No. 123R using the modified prospective approach as described in the statement and has not restated prior year results. SFAS No. 123R requires that the fair value for share-based compensation be recognized as an expense over the service period that the awards are expected to vest. For awards granted prior to adoption of SFAS No. 123R, only the unvested portion, on the adoption date, will be recognized as expense over the remaining service period for those awards.

Prior to May 28, 2006, Tektronix accounted for stock options according to APB No. 25. Under APB No. 25, no compensation expense was recognized on Tektronix’ consolidated financial statements upon issuance of employee stock options because the exercise price of the options equaled the market price of the underlying stock on the date of grant. Alternatively, under the fair value method of accounting provided for by SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” the measurement of compensation cost was based on the fair value of employee stock options at the grant date, requiring the use of option pricing models to value the options.

The pro forma impact to both net earnings and earnings per share from calculating stock-based compensation cost consistent with the fair value alternative of SFAS No. 123 was as follows:

 

(In thousands, except per share amounts)

   2006     2005  

Net earnings as reported

   $ 92,355     $ 81,596  

Stock compensation cost included in net earnings as reported, net of tax expense of $1,508 and $ 883

     3,550       2,061  

Stock compensation cost using the fair value alternative, net of tax benefit of $8,141 and $ 7,470

     (19,161 )     (17,427 )
                

Pro forma net earnings

   $ 76,744     $ 66,230  
                

Earnings per share:

    

Basic—as reported

   $ 1.11     $ 0.94  

Basic—pro forma

   $ 0.92     $ 0.76  

Diluted—as reported

   $ 1.09     $ 0.93  

Diluted—pro forma

   $ 0.91     $ 0.75  

Impact of the Adoption of SFAS No. 123R

The adoption of SFAS No. 123R compared to the prior accounting used for share-based compensation had the following impact to results reported for fiscal year ended May 26, 2007:

During the year ended May 26, 2007, Tektronix recognized compensation expense of $13.7 million for stock options, $7.6 million for restricted shares, and $1.4 million for the employee stock purchase plan. As of May 26, 2007, $1.2 million of share-based compensation has been capitalized in inventory.

Consistent with the fair value calculations used in prior years, Tektronix will continue to use the Black-Scholes valuation model to calculate the fair value for employee stock options. Expense for all share-based awards will be recognized on a straight-line basis, after adjustment for forfeitures in accordance with SFAS No. 123R. As of May 26, 2007, the total unrecognized compensation expense for outstanding awards was $58.7 million, which is expected to be recognized over the weighted average period of 2.70 years.

Valuation Assumptions

Tektronix uses the Black-Scholes valuation model to calculate the fair value for employee stock options. The Black-Scholes valuation model includes assumptions for expected life, risk-free interest rate, volatility, and dividend yields. Expected life is the weighted average length of time that options are outstanding before they are exercised. Historic exercise behavior, vesting periods, and the weighted average remaining contractual life of outstanding options are all considered in the calculation of expected life. The risk-free interest rates are equal to the U.S. Treasury yield curve rates, of the same expected life, at grant. Stock price volatility for Tektronix is based on historic volatility and is calculated using weekly stock prices for a time period similar to the expected life of the option being valued. The weighted average estimated fair values of options granted during 2007, 2006, and 2005 were $8.64, $9.30, and $9.48 per share, respectively.

The weighted average assumptions used in the Black-Scholes model to estimate the fair values of options granted for years ended May 26, 2007, May 27, 2006, and May 28, 2005 were as follows:

 

     2007     2006     2005  

Expected life in years

   4.2     5.1     5.1  

Risk-free interest rate

   4.75 %   4.18 %   3.68 %

Volatility

   30.85 %   31.55 %   32.76 %

Dividend yield

   0.83 %   0.85 %   0.82 %

Stock Plans

Tektronix maintains stock incentive plans for selected employees. As of May 26, 2007, there were 15.9 million shares reserved for all stock compensation, of which 11.0 million were reserved for issuance for outstanding options and restricted share units, 0.7 million for outstanding stock options converted in connection with the Inet acquisition, 0.9 million for the Employee Stock Purchase Plan, and 3.3 million available for future grants. Under the terms of the stock incentive plans, stock options are granted at an option price not less than the market value at the date of grant. Options granted generally vest over four years and expire ten years from grant date. Restricted shares are valued at market value as of the date of grant and generally vest over four years. In 2007, Tektronix, as authorized under the current stock incentive plans, began granting restricted share units to select employees. Similar to restricted shares, restricted share units generally vest over four years and, upon vesting, are settled with shares of Tektronix common stock. Restricted share units are valued using the market value as of the grant date, reduced for dividends not paid prior to vesting. In accordance with Oregon corporate law, Tektronix is not able to retain treasury shares of common stock and, as a result, all stock plan awards are settled with newly issued shares.

(2) This plan was adopted by the Board of Directors for the sole purpose of making grants to new non-officer employees who join the Company as a result of acquisitions, and grants were limited to such non-officer employees. Options with a term of 10 years were granted at fair market value at the time of grant. The terms of the options are substantially the same as the options granted under plans approved by shareholders. The Board of Directors terminated this Plan in March 2005, therefore there will be no further grants.
(3) These totals do not include information relating to the Inet Stock Option Plan, which was approved by the shareholders of Inet Technologies, Inc. and assumed by Tektronix in a transaction approved by shareholders of Inet. No additional grants will be made under this plan. The applicable information for the Inet Stock Option Plan is as follows: (i) 678,154 securities are issuable upon exercise of outstanding options and 2,090 rights; (ii) the average exercise price of such outstanding options is $ 60.27; and (iii) no securities are available for future issuance.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

During 2001, Tektronix initiated the Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”) allowing substantially all regular employees to purchase shares of Tektronix common stock through payroll deductions of up to 10% of their eligible compensation during a six-month period. Plan periods are from January 15 to July 14 and July 15 to January 14. The price an employee pays for the shares is 85% of the fair market value of Tektronix stock on the last day of the period. Under SFAS No. 123R the ESPP is classified as a liability award.

During 2007 and 2006, employees purchased 336,194 and 364,035 shares, respectively, at a price of $23.85 and $20.98 per share, respectively. The total fair value for ESPP shares purchased was $1.4 million, $2.4 million, and $1.0 million in 2007, 2006, and 2005, respectively.

6. Acquisitions

Inet Acquisition

During the second quarter of 2005, Tektronix acquired Inet Technologies, Inc. (“Inet”), a leading global provider of communications software solutions that enable network operators to more strategically and profitably operate their businesses. Inet’s products address next-generation mobile and fixed networks, including mobile data and voice over packet (also referred to as voice over Internet protocol or VoIP) technologies, and traditional networks. Inet’s Unified Assurance Solutions enable network operators to simultaneously manage their voice and data services at the network, service, and customer layers by capturing, correlating, and analyzing network wide traffic in real time. Inet’s diagnostic products assist equipment manufacturers and network operators to quickly and cost effectively design, deploy, and maintain current and next-generation networks and network elements. Through this acquisition Tektronix significantly enhanced its position in the overall network management and diagnostic market and accelerated the delivery of products and solutions for network operators and equipment manufacturers seeking to implement next-generation technologies such as General Packet Radio Service (“GPRS”), Universal Mobile Telecommunications Systems (“UMTS”), and VoIP.

Tektronix acquired all of Inet’s outstanding common stock for $12.50 per share consisting of $6.25 per share in cash and $6.25 per share in Tektronix common stock. The cash consideration of $247.6 million, the value of Tektronix common stock of $247.5 million, and the fair values of stock options and restricted share rights assumed are included in the purchase price that was allocated to the underlying assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values. The purchase price allocation is subject to further changes primarily related to resolution of tax contingencies associated with ongoing tax audits for pre-acquisition periods. The purchase price and resulting allocation to the underlying assets acquired, net of deferred income taxes, are presented below as of May 26, 2007.

The following table presents the total purchase price (in thousands):

     (44,944 )
        

Total assets acquired, net of deferred income taxes

   $ 543,639  
        

The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired resulted in goodwill of $220.2 million. Management believes that the primary factors contributing to a purchase price that resulted in this amount of goodwill were synergies between the acquired business and portions of the pre-existing Tektronix business, as well as barriers to entry previously established by Inet in this specialty product field. Synergies include the combined entities’ ability to provide a broader product and solution offering and the ability to share technology development across these products. Barriers to entry include the significant levels

 

18


of infrastructure required in this product field and a history of success related to product installation, around the clock maintenance, and the know-how to understand complex customer telecommunication networks.

      $ 121,953    $ (62,967 )   $ 58,986
                        

As noted in the table above, $122.0 million of purchase price was allocated to intangible assets including developed technologies, customer relationships, covenants not to compete, and tradenames. $87.0 million of intangible assets purchased related to developed technologies such as hardware platform technology and architecture as well as software architecture and applications. These developed technologies were embedded as the core functionality of the product offering purchased in the acquisition. Management determined that these developed technologies were separable from the purchased entity and that they could be sold, transferred, or licensed. Therefore, the associated value was recognized apart from goodwill as amortizable intangible assets. The associated useful lives of these amortizable intangible assets were determined by management through analysis of the estimated revenues and underlying cash flows expected from these intangible assets including an assessment of broad technological changes and the competitive marketplace.

Amortization expense in 2007, 2006, and 2005 for intangible assets purchased in the Inet acquisition has been recorded on the Consolidated Statements of Operations as follows:

In 2005, the $32.2 million allocated to the in-process research and development (“IPR&D”) asset was written off at the date of the acquisition in accordance with FASB Interpretation No. 4, “Applicability of FASB Statement No. 2 to Business Combinations Accounted for by the Purchase Method.” This write-off was included in acquisition related costs and amortization on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The fair value of IPR&D was based on the net present value of estimated future cash flows. Significant assumptions used in the valuation of IPR&D included a risk adjusted discount rate of 10.2%, revenue and

 

19


expense projections, development life cycle and future entry of products to the market. As of the acquisition date, there were eight research and development projects in process that were approximately 87% complete. The total estimated cost to complete these projects was approximately $0.8 million at the acquisition date. In the first quarter of 2006, Tektronix had completed these eight research and development projects.

The Consolidated Statements of Operations included the results of operations of Inet since September 30, 2004. The following (unaudited) pro forma consolidated results of operations have been prepared as if the acquisition of Inet had occurred at May 30, 2004, the beginning of Tektronix’ fiscal year 2005.

Minacom Acquisition

On November 27, 2006, Tektronix acquired Minacom, a leading provider of active probe test solutions used by telecommunications carriers, cable multi-system operators, wireless and voice over internet protocol providers worldwide. The purchase price was approximately $27.3 million plus assumed liabilities of $1.2 million. The transaction was accounted for by the purchase method of accounting, and accordingly, the results of operations of Minacom have been consolidated in Tektronix’ financial statements from the date of acquisition. Pro forma comparative results of operations are not presented, as they do not materially differ from Tektronix’ reported results of operations.

   $ 3,137     $ 1,463     $ 2,745  
                        

Sale of Color Printing and Imaging

On January 1, 2000, Tektronix sold substantially all of the assets of the Color Printing and Imaging Division (“CPID”). Tektronix accounted for CPID as a discontinued operation in accordance with APB No. 30, “Reporting the Results of Operations – Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions.” The sales price was $925.0 million in cash, with certain liabilities of the division assumed by the buyer. During 2000, Tektronix recorded a net gain of $340.3 million on this sale. The net gain was calculated as the excess of the proceeds received over the net book value of the assets transferred, $198.5 million in income tax expense, $60.0 million of contingencies related to the sale, and $14.4 million in transaction and related costs.

Prior to 2007 all but $5.0 million of the $60.0 million contingency related to the sale of the CPID in 2000 had been resolved, either through payment or recognition in net earnings. During 2007, Tektronix recognized a $5.0 million pre-tax gain in discontinued operations related to the sale. Recognition of this $5.0 million gain had previously been deferred as management did not believe that the conditions necessary to recognize this gain existed. During the current year, management determined that persuasive objective evidence supporting the recognition of the $5.0 million pre-tax gain existed, which included a lack of claims activity associated with certain exposures underlying the contingencies, and analysis of the enforceability of potential claims related to this contingency, given the passage of time since the closing of the sale.

8. Business Realignment Costs

Business realignment costs represent actions to realign Tektronix’ cost structure in response to significant events and primarily include restructuring actions and impairment of assets resulting from reduced business levels or related to significant acquisitions or divestitures. Business realignment actions taken in recent years were intended to reduce Tektronix’ worldwide cost structure across all major functions. Major operations impacted include manufacturing, engineering, sales, marketing, and administrative functions. In addition to severance, Tektronix incurred other costs associated with restructuring its organization, which primarily represented facilities contracts and other exit costs associated with aligning the cost structure to appropriate levels. Restructuring actions can take significant time to execute, particularly if they are being conducted in countries outside the United States. Management believes that the restructuring actions implemented in recent years have resulted in the cost savings anticipated for those actions.

Total business realignment costs were $9.1 million in 2007. During the first quarter of 2007, Tektronix incurred business realignment costs of $2.6 million associated with the acquisition of Inet and actions taken to realize business synergies. Business realignment costs were negligible during the second and third quarters of the current year. However, during the second quarter of this year, Tektronix observed a weakening in the communications market, primarily driven by consolidations of network equipment manufacturers as well as some slowing of capital expenditures by network operators. In the fourth quarter of 2007, Tektronix began to take actions in response to the change in market conditions in order to appropriately align its cost structure to achieve business model goals. Business realignment costs incurred in the fourth quarter of 2007 were $6.3 million. The total business realignment costs of $9.1 million during 2007 included severance and related costs of $9.0 million for 76 employees and $0.1 million for contractual obligations. At May 26, 2007, liabilities remained for the severance and related benefits of 84 employees.

At the end of 2005 and into the first quarter of 2006, Tektronix experienced softening in orders primarily in general purpose product categories. In response, Tektronix took actions to reduce its cost structure. During this time period, Tektronix also took actions to realize business synergies as a result of the acquisition of Inet. Business realignment costs of $9.8 million during 2006 included severance and related costs of $11.1 million for 120 employees, $0.3 million for contractual obligations, and a net $1.6 million credit for currency gains primarily related to the closure of three subsidiaries in Europe. At May 27, 2006, liabilities remained for the severance and related benefits of 41 employees.

Business realignment costs of $3.1 million during 2005 were primarily for severance and related costs for activity in Europe that had been initiated in previous years. For 2005, business realignment costs included severance and related costs of $2.2 million for 37 employees, $0.9 million for contractual obligations, and $0.2 million for accelerated depreciation of assets, offset by a $0.2 million credit from net accumulated currency translation gains. At May 28, 2005, liabilities of $1.3 million remained for the severance and related benefits of 15 employees for actions taken in 2005, 2004, and 2003. The remaining $1.0 million liability was for continuing payments on contractual obligations, some of which span several years.

Tektronix reviews investments in debt and equity securities for other than temporary impairment whenever the fair value of an investment is less than amortized cost and evidence indicates that an investment’s carrying amount is not recoverable within a reasonable period of time. In the evaluation of whether an impairment is other-than-temporary, Tektronix considers the reasons for the impairment, its ability and intent to hold the investment until the market price recovers or the investment matures, compliance with its investment policy, the severity and duration of the impairment, and expected future performance. As Tektronix primarily invests in high quality debt securities, unrealized losses are largely driven by increased market interest rates. These unrealized losses were not significant on an individual investment security basis. Based on this evaluation, no impairment was considered to be other-than-temporary.

10. Concentrations of Risk

Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject Tektronix to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of trade accounts receivable and marketable investments. The risk is limited due to the large number of entities comprising Tektronix’ customer base and investments, and their dispersion across many different industries and geographies.

Supplier Risk

Tektronix currently buys a significant portion of its circuit boards from two suppliers and a significant portion of its Application Specific Integrated Chips (“ASICs”) from two suppliers. Both circuit boards and ASICs are important components of Tektronix’ products and are built to its specifications. Management believes that other suppliers could build these circuit boards on comparable terms, however there are a limited number of suppliers that could build ASICs to Tektronix’ specifications. A change in suppliers for circuit boards or ASICs could cause a delay in manufacturing and a possible loss of sales, which would adversely affect operating results.

14. Goodwill, Net

Goodwill and intangible assets are accounted for in accordance with SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations”, and SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.” Accordingly, Tektronix does not amortize goodwill from acquisitions, but continues to amortize other acquisition related intangibles.

Tektronix performed its annual goodwill impairment analysis during the second quarter of 2007 and identified no impairment. The impairment review is based on a discounted cash flow approach that uses estimates of future market share and revenues and costs for the reporting units as well as appropriate discount rates. The estimates used are consistent with the plans and estimates that Tektronix uses to manage the underlying businesses. However, if Tektronix fails to deliver new products for these groups, if the products fail to gain expected market acceptance, or if market conditions in the related businesses are unfavorable, revenue and cost forecasts may not be achieved, and Tektronix may incur charges for impairment of goodwill.

Changes in goodwill, net, for continuing operations during fiscal years ended May 26, 2007 and May 27, 2006 were as follows (in thousands):

Contingencies

As of May 26, 2007, Tektronix had $8.1 million of contingencies recorded in Accounts payable and accrued liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, which consisted of $6.6 million for environmental exposures and $1.5 million for other contingent liabilities. It is reasonably possible that management’s estimates of contingencies could change in the near term and that such changes could be material to the consolidated financial statements.

Sale of Color Printing and Imaging

As of May 27, 2006 the balance of the contingencies related to the CPID disposition in 2000 was $5.0 million. During 2007, Tektronix recognized a $5.0 million pre-tax gain, in discontinued operations related to the sale. Recognition of this $5.0 million gain had previously been deferred as management did not believe that the conditions necessary to recognize this gain existed. During the current year, management determined that persuasive objective evidence supporting the recognition of the $5.0 million pre-tax gain existed, which included a lack of claims activity associated with certain exposures underlying the contingencies, and analysis of the enforceability of potential claims related to this contingency, given the passage of time since the closing of the sale. See Note 7 “Discontinued Operations” for additional information related to the sale of CPID.

Environmental and Other

The $6.6 million for environmental exposures was specifically associated with the closure and cleanup of a licensed hazardous waste management facility at Tektronix’ Beaverton, Oregon campus. Tektronix established the initial liability in 1998 and bases ongoing estimates on currently available facts and presently enacted laws and regulations. Costs for tank removal and cleanup were incurred in 2001. Costs currently being incurred primarily relate to ongoing monitoring and testing of the site.

Tektronix completed and filed a feasibility study with the Department of Environmental Quality (“DEQ”) during fiscal year 2007. Based on the recommendations in the feasibility study, management’s best estimate of the cost for remediation of the environmental exposure was $6.8 million. The $6.8 million is an increase of $4.8 million over the 2006 estimate of $2.0 million which was the low end of a range of $2.0 million to $10.0 million. Of the $6.8 million, a reserve of $6.6 million remained at the end of 2007. These costs are expected to be incurred over the next several years. Tektronix is currently in the process of revising its feasibility study to address comments from the DEQ. Tektronix expects completion of the revised feasibility study during fiscal year 2008, the result of which could change management’s estimate of the liability. If events or circumstances arise that are unforeseen to Tektronix as of the balance sheet date, actual costs could differ materially from the recorded liability.

 

31


The remaining $1.5 million included amounts primarily related to intellectual property, employment issues, and regulatory matters. If events or circumstances arise that are unforeseen to Tektronix as of the balance sheet date, actual costs could differ materially from this estimate.

The U.S. Office of Export Enforcement and the Department of Justice are conducting investigations into Tektronix’ compliance with export regulations with respect to certain sales made in Asia. Tektronix is fully cooperating with the investigations. The government could pursue a variety of sanctions against Tektronix, including monetary penalties and restrictions on its exportation of certain products. Based on the status of the investigations as of the date of this report, Tektronix does not anticipate that the results of the investigations will have a material adverse effect on Tektronix’ business, results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows.

In the normal course of business, Tektronix and its subsidiaries are parties to various legal claims, actions and complaints, including matters involving patent infringement and other intellectual property claims and various other risks. It is not possible to predict with certainty whether or not Tektronix will ultimately be successful in any of these legal matters or, if not, what the impact might be. However, Tektronix’ management does not expect the results of these legal proceedings to have a material adverse effect on its results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

 

19. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

For cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and accrued compensation, the carrying amount approximates the fair value because of the immediate or short-term nature of those instruments. Marketable investments are recorded at their fair value based on quoted market prices.

 

20. Shareholders’ Equity

Repurchase of Common Stock

Repurchases of Tektronix common stock were made under authorizations totaling $1.25 billion approved by the Board of Directors. The authority to purchase common stock on the open market or through negotiated transactions included authorizations of $550.0 million in 2000, $400.0 million in 2005, and $300.0 million in 2007. The share repurchase authorizations have no stated expiration date.

During 2007, 2006, and 2005, Tektronix repurchased a total of 6.7 million, 4.8 million, and 7.8 million shares, respectively, at an average price per share of $28.61, $25.02, and $26.63, respectively, for $191.1 million, $120.8 million, and $208.4 million, respectively. As of May 26, 2007, Tektronix has repurchased a total of 36.5 million shares at an average price of $24.93 per share totaling $909.1 million under these authorizations. The reacquired shares were immediately retired, in accordance with Oregon corporate law. As of May 26, 2007 $340.9 million remained open under these authorizations.

Subsequent to the end of 2007, the Board of Directors authorized an additional $350.0 million for share repurchases, bringing the total authorization to $1.6 billion.

In addition, in June 2007, Tektronix issued $345.0 million principal amount of convertible notes due on July 15, 2012. The primary use of the proceeds will be for additional repurchases under the share repurchase program and for other corporate purposes. Concurrent with this debt placement, Tektronix repurchased 3.2 million shares of common stock, at an average price per share of $34.57, for $110.0 million.

Shareholder Rights Agreement

On June 21, 2000, the Board of Directors adopted a new shareholder rights agreement to replace the 1990 agreement that expired by its terms in September 2000. To implement the new plan, the Board of Directors declared a dividend of one right for each outstanding common share payable to shareholders of record on September 7, 2000. As a result of Tektronix’ two-for-one stock split in October 2000, each outstanding share of common stock and each share issued thereafter, including under the plans, includes one-half of a right. Each right entitles the holder to purchase one one-thousandth of a share of Series B preferred shares at a purchase price of $375, subject to adjustment. The rights become exercisable ten days after a person or group acquires, or commences a tender offer that would result in, beneficial ownership of 15% or more of the outstanding common shares of Tektronix. Upon the occurrence of certain events described in the rights agreement, each right entitles its holder to purchase common shares of Tektronix, or in certain circumstances common shares of the acquiring company, or other property having a value of twice the right’s exercise price.

 

32


However, rights that are beneficially owned by an acquiring person become null and void. The rights may be redeemed at a price of $0.001 per right at any time before a person becomes an acquiring person, and any time after a person becomes an acquiring person, Tektronix may exchange each right at a ratio of one common share, or one one-thousandth of a preferred share, per right. The rights expire on September 7, 2010.

21. Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities

Tektronix’ activities expose it to a variety of market risks, including the effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The financial exposures are monitored and managed by Tektronix as an integral part of its overall risk management program. Tektronix’ risk management program seeks to reduce the potentially adverse effects that the volatility of the markets may have on its operating results. Tektronix maintains a foreign currency risk management strategy that uses derivative instruments to protect its interests from unanticipated fluctuations in earnings and cash flows caused by volatility in currency exchange rates. By using derivative financial instruments to hedge exposures to changes in exchange rates, Tektronix exposes itself to counterparty credit risk. Tektronix manages exposure to counterparty credit risk by entering into derivative financial instruments with highly rated institutions that can be expected to fully perform under the terms of the agreement.

Tektronix accounts for derivative financial instruments under SFAS No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.” SFAS No. 133 establishes accounting and reporting standards requiring that every derivative instrument be recorded on the balance sheet as either an asset or liability measured at its fair value. SFAS No. 133 requires that changes in the derivative’s fair value be recognized currently in earnings unless specific hedge accounting criteria are met. Special accounting for qualifying hedges allows a derivative’s gains and losses to offset related results on the hedged item in the consolidated statement of operations to the extent effective and requires that Tektronix formally document, designate and assess the effectiveness of transactions that receive hedge accounting.

Tektronix utilizes foreign currency forward contracts to partially or fully offset the risk associated with the effects of certain non-functional currency assets and liabilities. As a result, increases or decreases to these balances due to foreign exchange rate changes are offset by gains and losses on the forward contracts. Tektronix does not use forward contracts for trading purposes. All foreign currency balances and all outstanding forward contracts are marked-to-market at the end of the period with unrealized gains and losses included in Tektronix’ consolidated statements of operations.

Net foreign exchange transaction gains and losses were not material for 2007, 2006, and 2005. Tektronix held forward contracts with notional amounts totaling $35.5 million and $37.9 million at May 26, 2007 and May 27, 2006, respectively.

The reconciliations above reflect permanent items that impact the provisions. Items that increase provisions include state income taxes and various nondeductible expenses, whereas items that decrease the provisions include the extraterritorial income exclusion, various tax credits, tax exempt interest income, reductions in valuation allowances and reversals of prior fiscal years’ provisions.

During 2005, $11.3 million was not recognized as a tax benefit since this resulted from the write-off of IPR&D from the Inet acquisition. Income tax expense for 2005 included $8.1 million of other provisions largely for taxes on unremitted earnings of foreign subsidiaries and tax contingencies related to research and development tax credits, net operating loss carryforwards and other non-deductible items, partially offset by a favorable adjustment from the prior fiscal year income tax return. In addition, income tax expense for 2005 also included a benefit of $16.7 million associated with the reduction of the valuation allowance maintained on certain deferred tax assets. The reduction was primarily the result of the utilization of foreign tax credit carryovers during the year.

Tax benefits of $2.6 million, $8.4 million and $3.9 million associated with share-based compensation were allocated to common stock in 2007, 2006, and 2005, respectively.

At May 26, 2007, there were $1.7 million of other credit carryforwards comprising primarily international and state tax credits, which expire by fiscal year 2014. In addition, there were $40.5 million of international net operating losses with a deferred tax value of $9.0 million, $3.7 million of which expire by fiscal year 2013 and $5.3 million of which can be carried forward indefinitely. Further, there were $13.6 million of state net operating losses with a deferred tax value of $0.7 million, which expire by fiscal year 2024. Tektronix has a $1.5 million valuation allowance in place against certain international tax credits, state tax credits, and international net operating losses.

Tektronix maintains reserves for estimated tax exposures in jurisdictions of operation. These tax jurisdictions include federal, state and various international tax jurisdictions. Significant income tax exposures include potential challenges of research and experimentation credits, export-related tax benefits, disposition transactions and intercompany pricing. Exposures are settled primarily through the settlement of audits within these tax jurisdictions, but can also be affected by changes in applicable tax law or other factors, which could cause Tektronix’ management to believe a revision of past estimates is appropriate.

In April 2005, Tektronix reached a preliminary agreement with the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) with respect to its examination of Tektronix’ fiscal years 2001, 2002, and 2003. At that time, Tektronix made a payment of $12.7 million with respect to this audit. In August 2005, Tektronix was notified that the congressional Joint Committee on Taxation had completed its review

 

37


and had accepted the conclusions contained in the IRS Audit Report associated with the examination of those years. The settlement of this audit resulted in a net decrease of approximately $2.0 million of related reserves in the first quarter of 2006.

During 2007, the estimate of prior years’ exposures was reduced by $5.9 million to reflect the results of tax audits that concluded during the fiscal year, including the IRS examination of Tektronix’ fiscal years 2004 and 2005.

Management believes that an appropriate liability has been established for estimated exposures; however, actual results may differ materially from these estimates.

 

26. Benefit Plans

Tektronix sponsors one IRS-qualified defined benefit plan, the Tektronix Cash Balance pension plan, and one non-qualified defined benefit plan, the Retirement Equalization Plan, for eligible employees in the United States. Employees hired after July 31, 2004 do not participate in the U.S. Cash Balance pension plan. Tektronix also sponsors defined benefit pension plans in Germany, the United Kingdom, Japan, and Taiwan. During 2007, Tektronix settled the Netherlands pension plan resulting in a $1.5 million settlement gain. Tektronix also provides postretirement life insurance benefits to all current employees and provides certain retired and active employees with postretirement health care benefits. The pension plans have a fiscal year end measurement date.

Adoption of SFAS No. 158

SFAS No. 158, “Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans—an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106, and 132(R),” requires an employer to recognize the overfunded or underfunded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan (other than a multiemployer plan) as an asset or liability on its statement of financial position using prospective application. SFAS No. 158 also requires an employer to recognize changes in that funded status in the year in which the changes occur through comprehensive income.

Tektronix adopted SFAS No. 158 in fiscal year 2007. Upon adoption, Tektronix recorded an after-tax adjustment of $127.2 million to the ending balance of accumulated other comprehensive loss for pension and postretirement benefit plans. The accumulated other comprehensive loss, before tax, consisted of $216.5 million of unrecognized actuarial loss, $5.6 million of unrecognized prior service benefit, and $0.4 million of unrecognized transition obligation for pension and postretirement benefit plans.

The following table provides the incremental effect of applying SFAS No. 158 on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of May 26, 2007 for pension and postretirement benefit plans:

Contributions and Estimated Future Benefit Payments

No contribution has been made to the U.S. Cash Balance pension plan in 2007. During 2006, Tektronix made voluntary contributions of $48.4 million to the U.S. Cash Balance pension plan and $6.4 million to the United Kingdom pension plan.

Tektronix does not have significant statutory or contractual funding requirements for the qualified defined benefit plans and postretirement benefit plans. Tektronix may make additional cash contributions to the plans in the future depending on the market performance of the pension plans assets.

The following estimated future benefit payments, which reflect expected future service, as appropriate, are expected to be paid:

Investment Policy and Asset Allocation

The investment policy for the U.S. Cash Balance pension plan currently provides for target asset allocations of 74.5% for equity investments and 25.5% for fixed income investments. Allocations may vary by 5% before reallocation of assets becomes necessary. Tektronix’ investment strategy is to maximize shareholder value within the context of providing benefit security for plan participants.

The plan assets of the U.S. Cash Balance pension plan included investments in real estate, absolute return funds, and private equity valued at $119.9 million, whose fair values have been estimated by management based on information supplied to Tektronix by the fund managers or the general partners, in the absence of readily determinable market values that are available on publicly traded securities. The value of plan assets directly affects the funded status of the U.S. Cash Balance pension plan recorded in the financial statements.

The plan asset allocations at May 26, 2007 and May 27, 2006 for the U.S. Cash Balance pension plan, which comprises the majority of Tektronix’ pension plan assets, by asset category were as follows:

 

     2007     2006  

Equity investments

   75 %   74 %

Debt securities

Weighted Average Assumptions Used

Weighted average assumptions used to determine benefit obligations at May 26, 2007 and May 27, 2006 were as follows:

 

     Pension Benefits     Postretirement Benefits  
     2007     2006     2007     2006  

Discount rate

   5.9 %   5.9 %   6.0 %   6.3 %

Rate of compensation increase

   3.5 %   3.4 %   3.6 %   3.6 %

 

41


Weighted average assumptions used to determine net pension and postretirement benefit expense for 2007, 2006, and 2005 were as follows:

 

     Pension Benefits     Postretirement Benefits  
     2007     2006     2005     2007     2006     2005  

Discount rate

   5.9 %   5.3 %   6.1 %   6.3 %   5.5 %   6.3 %

Rate of compensation increase

   3.4 %   3.5 %   3.6 %   3.6 %   3.6 %   3.6 %

Expected long-term return on plan assets

   8.5 %   8.3 %   8.4 %   N/A     N/A     N/A  

N/A – not applicable

Assumed discount rates are used in measurements of the projected, accumulated and vested benefit obligations and the service and interest cost components of net periodic pension cost. Management makes estimates of discount rates to reflect the rates at which the pension benefits could be effectively settled. In making those estimates, management evaluates rates of return on high-quality fixed-income investments currently available and expected to be available during the period to maturity of the pension benefits.

The expected long-term return on plan assets assumption is based on a comprehensive analysis conducted by Tektronix’ treasury department with detailed input from external actuarial and asset management consultants. The analysis includes a review of the asset allocation strategy, projected future long-term performance of individual asset classes, risks (standard deviations) and correlations for each of the asset classes that comprise the plans’ asset mix. While the analysis gives appropriate consideration to recent asset performance and actual returns in the past, the assumption is primarily an estimated long-term, prospective rate.

Tektronix maintains an insured indemnity health plan for retirees. The assumed health care cost trend rate used to measure the expected cost of benefits under the indemnity and HMO plans for participants under the age of 65 was assumed to increase by 9.0% in 2007. For participants over the age of 65, the assumed health care cost trend rate used to measure the expected cost of benefits under the indemnity and HMO plans was assumed to increase by 9.5% in 2007. Thereafter, the rates of both plans were assumed to gradually decrease until they reach 5.3% for participants under the age of 65 and 5.5% for those over 65 in 2012. A 1% change in these assumptions would not have a material effect on either the postretirement benefit obligation at May 26, 2007 or the benefit expense reported for 2007.

Employee savings plan

Tektronix has an employee savings plan that qualifies as a deferred salary arrangement under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. Participating U.S. employees may defer up to 50% of their eligible pay, subject to certain regulatory limitations. Employee contributions are invested, at the employee’s direction, among a variety of investment alternatives. Tektronix makes a basic contribution of 2% of eligible pay for all participants plus a matching contribution of 100% of the first 4% of elective contributions. Tektronix’ total contributions were approximately $12.7 million in 2007, $11.9 million in 2006, and $10.6 million in 2005.

28. Subsequent Events

Subsequent to the end of 2007, Tektronix issued $345.0 million principal amount of senior convertible notes due on July 15, 2012. See Note 29 “Convertible Notes” below for details.

 

29. Convertible Notes

In June 2007, Tektronix issued $345.0 million principal amount of senior convertible notes due on July 15, 2012 (the “Convertible Notes”). The Convertible Notes were issued at par and accrue interest at a rate of 1.625% per annum. Interest will be paid semi-annually in arrears in cash on January 15 and July 15 of each year, beginning January 15, 2008.

The initial conversion rate for the Convertible Notes is 25.1538 shares of Tektronix common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Convertible Notes, equivalent to a conversion price of approximately $39.76 per share. These conversion rates will be adjusted if Tektronix makes specified types of distributions or enters into certain other transactions with respect to its common stock. The Convertible Notes may only be converted: 1) during any calendar quarter if the closing price of Tektronix common stock exceeds 130% of the conversion price per share during a defined period at the end of the previous calendar quarter, 2) if the trading price of the Convertible Notes falls below a certain threshold over a defined period, 3) if specified corporate transactions, including a change in control, occur or 4) one month prior to the respective maturity date.

Upon conversion, a holder would receive the conversion value equal to the conversion rate multiplied by the volume weighted average price of Tektronix common stock during a specified period relating to the conversion date. The conversion value will be paid in: 1) cash equal to the lesser of the principal amount of the note or the conversion value, as defined, and 2) to the extent the conversion value exceeds the principal amount of the note, shares of Tektronix common stock, cash or a combination of common stock and cash, at Tektronix’ option (the “excess conversion value”). In addition, upon a change in control, as defined, the holders may require Tektronix to purchase for cash all or a portion of their notes for 100% of the principal amount of the notes plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any.

In connection with issuance of the Convertible Notes, $110.0 million of Tektronix common stock was repurchased under the Tektronix’ stock repurchase program.

Tektronix evaluated the embedded conversion option in accordance with SFAS No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” and concluded that the embedded conversion option contained within the Convertible Notes should not be accounted for separately because the conversion option is indexed to Tektronix common stock and is classified as stockholders’ equity.

Concurrent with the issuance of the Convertible Notes, Tektronix purchased convertible note hedges. The convertible note hedges allow Tektronix to receive shares of Tektronix common stock and/or cash from the counterparties to the transactions

 

43


equal to the amounts of common stock and/or cash related to the excess conversion value that Tektronix would issue and/or pay to the holders of the Convertible Notes upon conversion. The aggregate cost of these hedge transactions was $74.5 million.

In separate transactions, Tektronix also sold warrants for the purchase of up to 8.7 million shares of Tektronix common stock at a price of $49.26 per share. The warrants are exercisable over a 100-business day period commencing on October 15, 2012. Tektronix received $44.0 million in cash proceeds from the sale of these warrants.

Because Tektronix has the choice of settling the convertible note hedges and warrants in cash or shares of its stock, and these contracts meet all of the applicable criteria for equity classification as outlined in Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) No. 00-19, “Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company’s Own Stock,” the cost of the convertible note hedges and net proceeds from the sale of the warrants are classified in stockholders’ equity. In addition, because both of these contracts are classified in stockholders’ equity and are indexed to Tektronix common stock, they are not accounted for as derivatives under SFAS No. 133.
