Industry Overview

 

According to the 2005 Mid-Year Industry Overview prepared by the National Cable & Telecommunications Association, between 1996 and mid-2005, United States cable operators spent approximately $100 billion to upgrade their networks to deliver digital video and two-way services such as high speed data, video on demand, and telephony. As cable operators maximize their investment, we believe that our business will be driven by the following industry dynamics and trends:

 

Growth in Enhanced Broadband Services Requires Continued Upgrades by Domestic and International Cable Operators.    Cable operators are offering enhanced broadband services, including high speed Internet, voice over Internet Protocol, digital video, high definition television, and interactive and on demand video services. As these enhanced broadband services continue to attract new subscribers, we expect cable operators will be required to further upgrade their networks to support increased customer demand for these services. In the access portion, or “last-mile,” of the network, operators will need to upgrade headends, hubs, nodes, and radio frequency distribution equipment. Metropolitan Area Networks are becoming another critical portion of the network as operators are developing the migration path to digital, packet-based networks capable of handling digital broadcast video, Internet Protocol data, and interactive services, such as video on demand, online gaming, and voice over Internet Protocol. While many domestic cable operators have substantially completed initial network upgrades necessary to provide enhanced broadband services, they will need to take a scalable approach to continue upgrades as new services are deployed. In addition, many international cable operators have not yet completed the initial upgrades necessary to offer such services.

 

Growing Demand for “Triple Play” Services—Video, Voice, and Data.    In response to increased competition from telecommunication service providers and direct broadcast satellite operators, cable operators have not only upgraded their networks to cost effectively support and deliver enhanced video, voice, and data, but continue to invest significantly to offer a “triple play” bundle of these services. The ability to cost effectively deliver bundled services helps cable operators reduce subscriber turnover and increase revenue per subscriber. As a result, the focus on such services is driving cable operators to continue to invest in network infrastructure, content management, digital advertising insertion, and back office automation tools.

 

Cable Operators are Demanding Advanced Network Technologies and Software Solutions.    The increase in volume and complexity of the signals transmitted through broadband networks as a result of the migration to an all digital, on demand network is causing cable operators to deploy new technologies. For example, transport technologies based on Internet Protocol allow cable operators to more cost effectively transport video, voice, and data across a common network infrastructure. Cable operators are also demanding sophisticated network and service management software products and technical field services to minimize operating expenditures and support the complexity of two-way broadband communications systems. As a result, cable operators are focusing on technologies and products that are flexible, cost effective, compliant with open industry standards, and scalable to meet subscriber growth and effectively deliver reliable, enhanced services.

Cable Operators are Developing Strategies to Offer Commercial Services.    Cable operators are leveraging the their investment in their existing fiber and coax networks by expanding beyond traditional residential customers to offer voice, video, and data services to commercial (small and medium size businesses), education, healthcare, and government clients. Using their experience in delivering data, cable operators can bundle both voice and data for commercial subscribers and effectively compete with the telephone companies who have typically focused on large enterprises. Commercial services is just one of several business segments where cable and telephone companies are trying to penetrate each others’ markets.

 

Competition Between Cable Operators and Telephone Companies is Increasing.    Telephone companies are aggressively offering high speed data and are beginning to offer video services to the residential market. SBC Communications, Inc. and Verizon Communications have publicly stated that they will spend billions of dollars to equip their networks to offer video service, once a service offered only by cable and satellite providers. Likewise, telephone companies have been increasingly competitive on pricing and offers for higher speed on data services, again to compete with the cable companies. In addition, cable companies are launching Internet Protocol-based telephone service.

 

Digital Video Recorders are Impacting Advertising Business.    As the use of digital video recorders and other recording devices becomes more prevalent, advertisers are being faced with the need to develop new business models. Since personal recorders allow the viewer to skip over ads, network operators are looking for new ways to attract advertising dollars and deliver a meaningful ad experience to viewers. As a result, many network operators are implementing digital ad insertion, allowing them to transition from all analog to a mix of analog and digital and ultimately to all digital. One benefit is the ability to reallocate bandwidth but, more importantly, digital advertising allows network operators to create a more interactive experience between advertiser and viewer. Telephone companies are also planning for this transition.

 

Improved Conditions for Many Large Cable Operators.    During the past few years, the global communications industry experienced a downturn as a result of a prolonged economic recession and financial difficulties, including financial restructurings of large cable operators such as Adelphia Communications, NTL Inc., and UPC. Recently, Adelphia Communications agreed to be acquired by Time Warner Cable and Comcast Corporation and closing of that transaction is expected to occur in the first half of 2006. With these restructurings and consolidation, we believe the financial condition of many of our cable operator customers has recently stabilized or improved and that they are now better positioned to invest capital in their networks, particularly for solutions that support deployment of advanced services and reduce operating expenses.

 

Strategy Overview

 

Our core strategy is to facilitate the transition by network operators from their existing hybrid fiber coax networks to on demand, Internet Protocol networks by leveraging our extensive installed base of network equipment and dedicated global workforce to deliver complete, interoperable solutions for helping network operators build the infrastructure and reduce the complexity of managing their networks. Our mission is to simplify technology, facilitate its implementation, and enable operators to put their subscribers in control of their entertainment, information and communication needs. Through a set of business solutions that respond to specific market needs, we are combining our product, services, and solutions offerings across business segments to work with our customers as they address network capacity issues, on demand video rollout, Internet Protocol telephony deployment, operations management, network integration, and commercial services opportunities.

 

Specific aspects of our solutions strategy include:

 

Providing a Comprehensive Network Transport Product Line.    We offer a full range of radio frequency and fiber optic transmission products to transmit both radio frequency and optic signals in both directions over hybrid fiber coax networks between “the headend and the curb.” In addition, we offer digital video transport products,

which are used primarily by cable operators, telephone companies, and broadcast companies to optically transport signals over extended distances. Two acquisitions in the past eighteen months have added two types of advanced digital transport capabilities which allow us to help network operators scale the deployment of premium quality Ethernet services across metropolitan area networks. Our goal is to continue to deliver network transport products that meet our customers’ evolving needs as they increasingly deploy video, voice, and data services over broadband networks. Our advanced transport and delivery systems can also be used by telephone companies as they transition to the delivery of video services.

 

Providing Software Solutions to Enhance Network Service and Management.    Our applications-oriented Internet Protocol software allows cable operators to automate and proactively manage their network to maximize quality of service and return on investment. Cable operators need enhanced network visibility, flexibility, and scalability to provide the latest services to their customers. From customer acquisition, activation and retention, to content management, network optimization, as well as service assurance and integrity, C-COR’s modular, interoperable applications provide network operators with the tools needed to capture revenue-generating opportunities.

 

Leveraging Our Extensive Installed Base of Network Products Worldwide.    We have a large installed base of transmission and digital video transport products in broadband networks worldwide. Our goal is to continue to leverage that installed base of equipment and our extensive customer relationships as cable operators upgrade and maintain their networks to enable the delivery of enhanced services. We also leverage our global customer base to market our software solutions and technical services.

 

Increasing International Sales.    We are currently supplying products and services to a number of international customers, including cable operators in Europe, Asia, Canada, and Latin America. With our broad product and service offerings, we are supplying comprehensive network solutions to network operators in various international markets who generally prefer to purchase products and services from suppliers offering a complete product line. We intend to continue to broaden our global customer base across all of our product and software offerings.

 

Products, Software, and Services

 

C-COR Access and Transport

 

C-COR Access and Transport offers a full complement of interoperable and modular optical and radio frequency network transmission and distribution products for hybrid fiber coax networks, and a portfolio of transport products that includes digital video systems and platforms that utilize Gigabit Ethernet and 10 Gigabit modules for server-to-hub transport in support of advanced services.

 

C-COR divides the cable network into two technology tiers: Access and Transport

 

Access Products

 

The traditional hybrid fiber coax network connects a local central content source, typically referred to as the headend, to individual residential or business users through a physical plant of fiber optic and coaxial cables and a variety of electrical and optical devices that modulate, transmit, receive, and amplify the radio frequency and optical signals as they move through the network. The local hybrid fiber coax network consists of three major components: the headend and hubs, nodes, and the radio frequency plant. C-COR offers product lines for all three components in a variety of bandwidths, up to and including one Gigahertz capability that was introduced and first sold in fiscal year 2005.

 

Headend and Hubs

 

The headend receives information from a satellite transmission, Internet gateway, telephony network, or other source and converts this information to laser modulated optical signals for transmission across

 

5


the local network. Larger networks feature both primary headends and a series of secondary headends or hubs. C-COR offers a broad range of headend and hub equipment that combines headend, hub, and compressed digital video transport onto one fully managed, scalable platform. The compact design lowers the capital costs of delivering more bandwidth per subscriber while enabling network operators to increase their bandwidth capacity for advanced services, such as video on demand, high speed Internet access, and voice over Internet Protocol.

 

Nodes

 

The general function of the node in the local hybrid fiber coax network is to convert information from optical signals to radio frequency signals for distribution to the home or business. C-COR’s node series offers the performance and cost efficiency required to meet the demands of the most advanced network architectures. Our nodes utilize space and cost-saving scalable technology that allows network operators to have a “pay-as-they-grow” approach in deploying their infrastructure, minimizing capital expenditures while maximizing network service availability and performance.

 

Radio Frequency Equipment

 

The radio frequency products transmit information between the optical nodes and subscribers. These products are radio frequency amplifiers which come in various configurations such as trunks, bridgers, and line extenders. A trunk amplifier handles a large amount of information in a network when the node size is greater than 500 homes. A bridger splits the signal to send it to a greater number of destinations. Line extenders move the information to the home or business. Representing one of the largest installed bases in the industry, our amplifier series uses drop-in replacement modules to allow cost-saving upgrades and complements optical nodes to provide a wide array of options for distribution to end-of-line.

 

Transport Products

 

Digital Video Systems

 

C-COR’s digital video family of transport products is capable of digitally transporting over optical cables a wide variety of uncompressed video, audio, and data signals to the service provider’s local headend or point-of-presence. Our products support most broadband video transport applications, including studio quality video, broadcaster interconnection, remote video collection/backhaul, cable television (CATV) backbones and headend consolidation, surveillance networks, and interactive distance learning. Known for its high signal quality and system flexibility and reliability, this product family is used by major telecommunications providers and broadcasters around the world to carry prominent video programming.

 

Multi-Service Packet Switch System

 

C-COR’s multi-service packet switch system combines the functionality of a carrier class switch and an efficient Metro Area Network transport system into one integrated platform. This flexible and scalable next generation solution uses Resilient Packet Ring technology to connect various computing, data, and telecommunications devices. Such a network consists of a set of switches connected together by two counter-rotating optical fiber rings. Service subscribers connect to the network primarily through high-speed, Ethernet interfaces on the switches. Service providers and network operators seek this solution to deliver multiple services on one network rather than the less efficient, more complex, and more costly alternative of having data, voice, and video delivered over separate parallel networks. Deployable in a variety of architectures, the multi-service packet system offers a combination of switching, transport, and quality of service for up to 1 million streams of content, providing a powerful solution for business and residential network applications.

In contrast, backlog in the C-COR Network Services and C-COR Solutions segments typically reflects longer-term systems development and field service projects that convert into revenue over a 12-month period.

 

At June 24, 2005, our backlog of orders was $78.0 million, including $28.6 million for C-COR Access and Transport, $19.3 million for C-COR Network Services, and $30.1 million for C-COR Solutions. By comparison, at June 25, 2004, our backlog of orders was $60.8 million, including $27.1 million for C-COR Access and Transport, $31.1 million for C-COR Network Services, and $2.6 million for C-COR Solutions. Backlog at

June 28, 2003 was $54.3 million, including $25.8 million for C-COR Access and Transport, $20.8 million for C-COR Network Services, and $7.7 million for C-COR Solutions.

 

Anticipated orders from customers may fail to materialize and delivery schedules may be deferred or canceled for a number of reasons, including reductions in capital spending by network operators, customer financial difficulties, annual capital spending budget cycles, and construction delays.

 

Research and Product Development

 

We operate in an industry that is subject to rapid changes in technology. Our ability to compete successfully depends in large part upon anticipating such changes. Accordingly, we engage in ongoing research and development activities in response to our customers’ needs with the intention to advance existing product lines and/or develop new offerings. Our current research and product development focus is on optical equipment and emerging packet-based technologies, architectures, and standards that affect critical areas, such as bandwidth network capacity management for multiple cable subscriber services, and software solutions for content management, including on demand video, advertising insertion and associated back office management; assurance of service and network quality; activation and provisioning of Internet Protocol-based services; and management of workforce resources for field installation and support. Product managers in both the Access and Transport and Solutions segments have responsibility for the product life cycle of specific hardware or software products from concept through development, expansion, and end of life. In this role, the product managers coordinate with a variety of C-COR professionals from sales, marketing, engineering, and technical support to develop and implement product plans. Access and Transport utilizes a concurrent product development program to enhance its capability to produce new products within an optimal time frame. The program addresses a number of key business activities, including portfolio management, innovation, product selection, product definition, electronic design and testing, selection of new product components, prototyping and piloting, and the ability to rapidly commercialize a new product.

 

During the past fiscal year, research and product development expenditures were primarily directed at developing new platforms for next-generation broadband architectures and applications, and expanding the capabilities of our interoperable software applications. We also continued with product development process improvements to reduce cycle time to design, reduce manufacturing costs, and improve design quality.

 

During fiscal years 2005, 2004, and 2003, we spent $37.8 million, $21.5 million, and $27.0 million, respectively, on research and product development. Research and product development expenses in the C-COR Access and Transport segment were $21.6 million, $16.6 million, and $21.2 million, respectively, for fiscal years 2005, 2004, and 2003. Research and product development expenses in the C-COR Solutions segment were $15.2 million, $4.3 million, and $5.3 million, respectively, for fiscal years 2005, 2004, and 2003. Other research and product development expenses, not allocated to segments, were $998,000, $592,000, and $544,000, respectively, for fiscal years 2005, 2004, and 2003. All research and product development expenditures have been expensed.

 

Competition

 

The broadband communications markets are dynamic and highly competitive, requiring substantial resources of those companies that compete in these markets, skilled and experienced personnel, and a capability to anticipate and capitalize on change. Our Access and Transport group competes with other companies, including Motorola’s Connected Home Solutions, Scientific Atlanta, Inc., and Harmonic, Inc., some of which are large publicly traded companies that may have greater financial, technical, and marketing resources than we do.

 

Equipment from our Access and Transport segment is marketed with emphasis on quality, advanced technology, differentiating features, flexibility, and business solutions, and is generally priced competitively with other

 

10


manufacturers’ product lines. Product reliability and performance, technological innovation, responsive customer service, breadth of product offering, and pricing are several of the key criteria for competition.

 

Our Network Services segment competes in the United States with several vendors that offer similar services to those provided by C-COR. We compete on the basis of quality, ability to meet delivery schedules, and price by offering high-end technical field service support for next-generation optical networks as well as for traditional construction, installation, and maintenance operations. We can offer a bundled solution with our equipment and/or software, providing our customers with a one-stop shopping solution.

 

Our Solutions group competes with several vendors offering on demand video and digital advertising insertion hardware and software, network management, mobile workforce management, network configuration management, subscriber management, and network capacity management systems in the United States, some of which may currently have greater sales in these areas than we do. However, we believe that we offer a more integrated solution that gives us a competitive advantage in supporting the requirements of both today’s hybrid fiber coax networks and the emerging all-digital, packet- based networks of the future. We believe our recent acquisitions of nCUBE and several back-office management capabilities solidify C-COR’s position as a provider of comprehensive solutions for broadband network operators, integrating customer activation and retention, content management, service assurance, and mobile workforce management under one interoperable, modular suite of offerings.

 

Employees

 

We had 1,564 employees as of August 23, 2005.

 

Suppliers

 

We closely monitor supplier delivery performance and quality. We employ a strategy of limiting the total number of global suppliers to those who are quality leaders in their respective specialties and who will work with us as partners in the supply chain. Typical items purchased are fiber optic lasers, photo receivers, radio frequency hybrids, printed circuit boards, die cast aluminum housings, and standard electronic components. Although some of the components we use are single sourced, they are typically not sole sourced. We have experienced no significant difficulties during the past fiscal year in obtaining adequate quantities of raw materials and component parts.

 

We outsource the manufacture and repair of certain assemblies and modules where it is cost effective to do so or where there are advantages with respect to delivery times. Current outsourcing arrangements include European versions of amplifiers, certain power supplies, accessories, optical modules, digital return modules, circuit boards, repair services, and small-lot manufacturing.

 

Intellectual Property

 

We hold forty nine (49) United States patents and have forty seven (47) patents pending in the United States Patent and Trademark Office. In addition, we hold an exclusive license, for use in our field, of numerous patents relating to fiber optic and radio frequency transmission equipment and technology, and network management techniques and services. We attempt to protect our intellectual property through patents, trademarks, copyrights, and a program of maintaining certain technology as trade secrets.

Risks Related to Our Business

 

OUR BUSINESS IS DEPENDENT ON THE LEVEL OF CAPITAL SPENDING BY CABLE NETWORK OPERATORS.

 

Historically, most of our sales have been network access and transport equipment, services, and operations support systems to cable network operators in the United States and internationally. We expect this to continue for the foreseeable future. Demand for our offerings depends significantly upon the size and timing of capital spending by cable network operators for building and maintaining network infrastructures and for automated solutions for managing complex services delivered over their networks. We cannot accurately predict the patterns of cable network operators’ spending, but we believe that these patterns will continue to be affected in the near future by a variety of factors, including:

 

  Ÿ   ongoing assessment by cable operators of capital spending requirements with the objective of balancing subscriber demand for advanced services with the financial market expectation of solid financial results and, in particular, an emphasis on generating positive cash flow and increasing revenue generated per subscriber;

 

  Ÿ   the transition of most major domestic operations from large-scale network upgrades to more targeted capital investment tied to the roll-out of advanced services over small network segments;

 

  Ÿ   timing of spending based on economic conditions in the international markets for network upgrades to support two-way capability for advanced video, voice, and data services; and

 

  Ÿ   consolidation of cable equipment suppliers providing network products and services to global broadband operators.

 

OUR CUSTOMER BASE CONSISTS PRIMARILY OF A SMALL NUMBER OF CUSTOMERS IN A SINGLE INDUSTRY.

 

Most of our sales have been to relatively few customers. Sales to our ten largest customers accounted for approximately 58% of net sales in fiscal year 2005, 64% of net sales in fiscal year 2004, and 64% of net sales in fiscal year 2003. The loss of, or any reduction in orders from, a significant customer would harm our business.

 

In recent years, there has been significant consolidation of ownership of cable systems, particularly in the United States. As a result, we expect that the concentration of our sales among a limited number of customers will continue. Almost all of our sales are made on a purchase order basis (some of which may be governed by master agreements) and none of our customers have entered into long-term agreements requiring them to purchase our products. We expect that any further consolidation of our customer base may result in delays in receiving new orders or a reduction in the size of orders for our products which may harm our business.

 

WE COULD BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED BY THE SALE OF ADELPHIA COMMUNICATIONS.

 

Adelphia Communications is an important customer, accounting for 14% and 20% of our net sales in fiscal years 2005 and 2004, respectively. Adelphia Communications recently agreed to be acquired by Time Warner Cable and Comcast. Orders from Adelphia could be disrupted during a transition period. While Time Warner Cable and Comcast are both existing customers, we cannot predict the effect that the proposed sale of Adelphia will have on our future business.

 

WE COULD BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED IF BROADBAND COMMUNICATIONS DO NOT DEVELOP RAPIDLY.

 

Historically, sales of network access and transport equipment for hybrid fiber coax networks have represented the majority of our sales. Hybrid fiber coax networks can be used for high speed Internet access, telephony, video on demand and digital cable television. Demand for our products depends primarily on our customers’ desire and

 

12


ability to upgrade their existing networks to offer high speed Internet access, telephony, video on demand and digital cable television, in addition to basic video service. There are, however, technologies that compete with hybrid fiber coax networks in providing high speed internet access, telephony, video on demand and digital cable television to end users such as direct broadcast satellite, digital subscriber line, and local multipoint distribution services. Improvements in a competing technology could result in significant price and/or performance advantages for that technology which, in turn, could reduce demand for our offerings.

 

It is difficult for us to accurately predict the future growth rate, size, and technological direction of the broadband communications market. As this market evolves, it is possible that hybrid fiber coax network operators, telephone companies, or other suppliers of broadband wireless and satellite services will decide to adopt alternative technologies or standards that are incompatible with our products. If we are unable to design, manufacture, and market offerings that incorporate or are compatible with these new technologies or standards, our business would suffer.

 

IF WE ARE UNABLE TO EFFECTIVELY COMPLETE THE INTEGRATION OF RECENT ACQUISITIONS OUR BUSINESS MAY BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED AND WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO MEET INVESTORS EXPECTATIONS.

 

We have completed five acquisitions since May 2004 and are completing the integration of these acquisitions into our existing operations. We may encounter unforeseen difficulties associated with the integration including loss of key personnel, delays in migrating products to a common platform, delays in introducing planned product enhancements, or difficulties in executing system deliveries. Problems resulting from acquisition integration could adversely affect new orders that are expected from customers and cause revenue and net income to fall below investor expectations. In such event, our financial results and financial position could be adversely affected.

 

IF WE ARE UNABLE TO INCREASE OUR OPERATIONS SUPPORT SYSTEMS SOFTWARE REVENUE TO GENERATE ADEQUATE PROFITABILITY, OUR FINANCIAL RESULTS WOULD BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED.

 

Our ability to increase the revenue generated by our content management and operations support systems depends on many factors that are beyond our control. For example:

 

  Ÿ   our customers may decide to continue to manage their networks by focusing on limited, individual elements of the network rather than managing their entire network integrity and service delivery processes using a suite of software application modules such as those offered by our Solutions group;

 

  Ÿ   our customers may decide to use internally developed software tools to manage their networks rather than license software from us;

 

  Ÿ   the software business is volatile and we may not be able to effectively utilize our resources and meet the needs of our customers if we are unable to forecast the future demands of such customers;

 

  Ÿ   if our customers increase the amount of spending on automated network, service, and content management tools, new suppliers of these tools may enter the market and successfully capture market share; and

 

  Ÿ   we may be unable to hire and retain enough qualified technical and management personnel to support our growth plans.

 

FLUCTUATIONS IN OUR SOFTWARE SALES MAY RESULT IN GREATER VOLATILITY IN OUR OPERATING RESULTS.

 

The level of our software sales are likely to fluctuate significantly quarter to quarter for the foreseeable future and introduce greater volatility to our operating results than has been typical in the past, when the main source of

 

13


volatility was the high proportion of quick-turn equipment sales. The timing of revenue recognition on software and system sales is based on specific contract terms and, in certain cases, is dependent upon completion of certain activities and customer acceptance which are difficult to forecast accurately. Because the gross margins associated with software and systems sales are substantially higher than our average gross margins, fluctuations in quarterly software sales have a disproportionate effect on operating results and earnings per share and could result in our operating results falling short of the expectations of securities analysts and investors.

 

WE MAY BE UNABLE TO ACCURATELY FORECAST THE DEMAND LEVEL FOR OUR PRODUCTS IN THE LONG TERM.

 

The major domestic cable operators have upgraded their networks to enable two-way communications. While we expect to generate additional sales in the coming quarters from bandwidth expansion of domestic cable networks, as well as international cable network upgrades and from new product introductions, we cannot accurately forecast the level of demand for our products in the long term. We expect the future level of demand for our products to be heavily influenced by the penetration rates of such consumer offerings as video on demand, digital television, Internet, and telephony over hybrid fiber coax networks, which are beyond our control. In addition, we expect a higher proportion of our revenues to come from international customers in countries where the hybrid fiber coax networks are being upgraded to enable these services to be offered.

 

IF WE ARE UNABLE TO DESIGN, MANUFACTURE, AND MARKET NEW OFFERINGS IN A TIMELY MANNER, WE MAY NOT REMAIN COMPETITIVE.

 

The broadband communications market is characterized by continuing technological advancement, changes in customer requirements, and evolving industry standards. To compete successfully, we must design, manufacture, and market new products that provide increasingly higher levels of performance and reliability. Our inability to design, manufacture, and market these products or to achieve broad commercial acceptance of these products would have an adverse effect on our business.

 

WE MAY PURSUE ACQUISITIONS AND INVESTMENTS THAT COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR BUSINESS.

 

In the past we have made acquisitions of and investments in businesses, products, and technologies to complement or expand our business. While we have no plans for additional acquisitions in the near term, future acquisitions may occur. If we identify an acquisition candidate, we may not be able to successfully negotiate or finance the acquisition or integrate the acquired businesses, products, or technologies with our existing business and products. Future acquisitions could result in potentially dilutive issuances of equity securities, the incurrence of debt and contingent liabilities, amortization expenses, and write downs of acquired assets.

 

IF WE ARE UNABLE TO RETAIN OUR KEY PERSONNEL OR RECRUIT ADDITIONAL KEY PERSONNEL IN THE FUTURE, WE MAY BE UNABLE TO EFFECTIVELY EXECUTE OUR BUSINESS STRATEGY.

 

Our success depends on our ability to hire, retain, and motivate highly qualified personnel. Competition for qualified technical and other personnel is intense, and we may not successfully attract or retain such personnel. Competitors and others in the past have recruited our employees and may do so in the future. We may lose key personnel from the recently completed acquisitions. While we require our employees to sign customary agreements concerning confidentiality and ownership of inventions, we generally do not have employment contracts or non-competition agreements with our personnel. If we lose any of our key personnel, are unable to attract qualified personnel, or are delayed in hiring required personnel, particularly engineers and other technical personnel, our business could be negatively affected.

 

OUR RELIANCE ON SEVERAL KEY COMPONENTS, SUBASSEMBLIES, AND MODULES USED IN OUR PRODUCTS COULD RESTRICT PRODUCTION.

 

We obtain many components, subassemblies, and modules for our products from a single supplier or a limited group of suppliers. Our reliance on single or limited suppliers, particularly foreign suppliers, and our increasing

 

14


reliance on subcontractors, involves several risks. These risks include a potential inability to obtain an adequate supply of required components, subassemblies, or modules, and reduced control over pricing, quality, and timely delivery of these components, subassemblies, or modules. We do not generally maintain long-term agreements with any of our suppliers or subcontractors. An inability to obtain adequate deliveries or any other circumstances requiring us to seek alternative sources of supply could affect our ability to ship our products on a timely basis, which could damage our relationships with current and prospective customers and harm our business.

 

We generally maintain low inventory levels and do not make binding long-term commitments to suppliers. As a result, it may be difficult in the future to obtain components required for our products or to ramp up the volume of components, subassemblies, or modules if demand for our products increases. The lower level of commitments to our suppliers may also adversely affect our unit costs which are in many cases based upon volume discounts.

 

OUR ABILITY TO ACHIEVE OUR STRATEGIC OBJECTIVE OF DELIVERING A FULL RANGE OF NETWORK SERVICES WILL DEPEND UPON OUR ABILITY TO EFFECTIVELY MANAGE OUR SERVICE WORKFORCE.

 

Our provision of network services required by our customers across their operations depends upon our ability to hire, retain, motivate, and effectively manage a large service workforce. Our inability to maintain and effectively manage such personnel could affect our ability to meet our customer needs on a timely basis, which could damage our relationships with current customers and prevent us from achieving our strategic objective.

 

CHANGES IN INTERNATIONAL TRADE LAWS, REGULATIONS, OR THE POLITICAL CLIMATE IN MEXICO COULD HINDER OUR PRODUCTION CAPACITY.

 

A substantial amount of the products that we sell are made in our manufacturing facility in Tijuana, Mexico, where optical nodes and radio frequency amplifiers for the domestic market are manufactured. This operation is exposed to certain risks as a result of its location, including:

 

  Ÿ   changes in international trade laws, such as the North American Free Trade Agreement, affecting our import and export activities;

 

  Ÿ   changes in, or expiration of, the Mexican government’s Maquiladora program, which provides economic benefits to us;

 

  Ÿ   changes in labor laws and regulations affecting our ability to hire and retain employees;

 

  Ÿ   fluctuations of foreign currency and exchange controls;

 

  Ÿ   potential political instability and changes in the Mexican government;

 

  Ÿ   potential regulatory changes; and

 

  Ÿ   general economic conditions in Mexico.

 

Any of these risks could interfere with the operation of this facility and result in reduced production, increased costs, or both. In the event that production capacity of this facility is reduced, we could fail to ship products on schedule and could face a reduction in future orders from dissatisfied customers. If our costs to operate this facility increase, our margins would decrease. Reduced shipments and margins would have an adverse effect on our financial results.

 

CHANGES IN THE REGULATORY, POLITICAL, AND ECONOMIC ENVIRONMENTS IN EUROPE AND ASIA COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR ENGINEERING AND DEVELOPMENT AND OUR SALES AND ADMINISTRATIVE SUPPORT OPERATIONS IN VARIOUS COUNTRIES IN WHICH WE HAVE INTERNATIONAL OPERATIONS.

 

We have operations in India, Austria, The Netherlands, Spain, Portugal, the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Australia, and China. These operations include software development, engineering, sales, and administrative

 

15


activities that support the delivery of localized versions of products and services in Europe and Asia. These facilities and operations are subject to certain risks as a result of their location, including:

 

  Ÿ   changes in international trade laws that could affect doing business in the European Common Market;

 

  Ÿ   changes in labor laws and regulations affecting our ability to hire and retain employees;

 

  Ÿ   potential political instability and changes in the government;

 

  Ÿ   potential regulatory changes;

 

  Ÿ   potential changes in tax structures and rates;

 

  Ÿ   foreign currency fluctuations; and

 

  Ÿ   general economic conditions in Europe, Asia, and Australia.

 

OUR COMPETITORS, SOME OF WHOM ARE LARGER AND MORE ESTABLISHED, MAY HAVE A COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE OVER US.

 

The market for network transmission equipment, content and operations management systems, and services is extremely competitive and is characterized by rapid technological change. Our current competitors include significantly larger companies with greater financial, technical, marketing, and other resources. Additional competition could come from new entrants in our markets. These existing and potential competitors may be in a better position to withstand a significant reduction in capital spending by cable network operators and to keep pace with changes in technology. We cannot assure that we will be able to compete successfully in the future or that competition will not harm our business.

 

Competitive pressures are likely to increase in the current capital spending environment as our competitors attempt to maintain revenue levels by increasing market share. This may result in increased price competition that could adversely affect our margins. Also, it could result in consolidation among our competitors which would have an unpredictable effect on our competitive position.

 

WE MAY NEED ADDITIONAL CAPITAL IN THE FUTURE AND MAY NOT BE ABLE TO SECURE ADEQUATE FUNDS ON TERMS ACCEPTABLE TO US.

 

We have recently incurred operating losses that resulted in negative cash flow from operations and may do so in the future. We currently anticipate that our existing capital resources, including available cash, will be sufficient to meet our operating needs for the next 12 to 18 months. If our cash flows are less than expected, we may need to borrow or raise additional funds sooner to respond to unforeseen technological or marketing hurdles, satisfy unforeseen liabilities, or take advantage of unanticipated opportunities. A future acquisition could require significant amounts of capital. We may not be able to obtain funds at the time or times needed on terms acceptable to us, or at all. If we are unable to obtain adequate funds on acceptable terms, we may not be able to take advantage of market opportunities, develop new products, or otherwise respond to competitive pressures. We may also need to borrow or raise additional funds to pay the principal of our 3.5% senior unsecured convertible notes (the “Notes”) which mature on December 31, 2009. We may need to refinance all or a portion of our indebtedness under the Notes on or before maturity. We may not be able to refinance the Notes, if necessary, on commercially reasonable terms or at all.

 

16


IF OUR SALES FORECASTS ARE NOT REALIZED IN A GIVEN PERIOD OR IF OUR OPERATING RESULTS FLUCTUATE IN ANY GIVEN QUARTER, OUR STOCK PRICE MAY FALL.

 

While we receive periodic forecasts from our customers as to their future requirements, these forecasts may not accurately reflect future purchase orders for our products. Sales of equipment are typically based on purchase orders and a substantial proportion of equipment sales are quick-turn orders that are received and fulfilled in the same quarter. Revenue recognition of software and system sales is based on specific contract terms and, in certain cases, is dependent upon completion of certain activities and customer acceptance which are difficult to forecast accurately. In addition, the sales cycles of many of our products, particularly our software products and our newer products sold internationally, are typically unpredictable and usually involve:

 

  Ÿ   a significant technical evaluation by our customers;

 

  Ÿ   a commitment of capital and other resources by network operators;

 

  Ÿ   delays associated with network operators’ internal procedures to approve large capital expenditures;

 

  Ÿ   time required to engineer the deployment of new technologies or services within broadband networks; and

 

  Ÿ   testing and acceptance of new technologies that affect key operations.

 

For these and other reasons, our sales cycles generally last three to six months, but can last up to 12 months.

 

In addition, because a limited number of large customers account for a significant portion of our sales, the timing of their orders can cause significant fluctuation in our quarterly operating results. A substantial portion of our expenses are fixed in the short term and are based on expected sales and if sales are below expectations in any given quarter, the negative impact on our operating results may be increased if we are unable to adjust our spending to compensate for the lower sales. Accordingly, variations in the timing of sales can cause significant fluctuation in our quarterly operating results and may result in a decline in the price of our common stock.

 

WE MAY BE HARMED IF WE ARE UNABLE TO ADEQUATELY PROTECT OUR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS, PATENT APPLICATIONS AND NON-EXCLUSIVE LICENSES FOR UNITED STATES PATENTS.

 

We intend to continue to file patent applications in the future, where we believe appropriate, and to pursue such applications with United States and foreign patent authorities, but we cannot be sure that patents will be issued on such applications or that our patents will not be contested. Also, because issuance of a valid patent does not prevent other companies from using alternative, non-infringing technology, we cannot be sure that any of our patents will provide significant commercial protection. We also rely on trade secrets, technical know-how, copyright, and other unpatented proprietary information relating to our product development and manufacturing activities. We try to protect this information with confidentiality agreements with our employees and other parties. We cannot be sure that these agreements will not be breached, that we will have adequate remedies for any breach, or that our trade secrets and proprietary know-how will not otherwise become known or independently discovered by others.

 

Particular aspects of our technology could be found to infringe on the claims of other existing or future patents. Other companies may hold or obtain patents on inventions or may otherwise claim proprietary rights to technology necessary to our business which could prevent us from developing new products. We cannot predict the extent to which we may be required to seek licenses, or the extent to which they will be available to us on acceptable terms, if at all.

 

WE MAY EXPERIENCE INCREASES IN OUR TAX EXPENSE AS WE BECOME MORE PROFITABLE.

 

We have a substantial amount of net operating loss carryforwards that are being utilized. In fiscal year 2003, we established a full valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets in most jurisdictions as the operating losses

 

17


realized in fiscal years 2001 through 2003 raised doubts about our ability to utilize those deferred tax assets in the future. As a result, our operating cash flow, reported net income (loss), and earnings (loss) per share reflect a relatively low effective tax rate. If we generate taxable income in a jurisdiction on a consistent basis for multiple consecutive quarters, we might eliminate or reduce the deferred tax asset valuation allowance for that jurisdiction which will have the effect of increasing the amount of income tax expense recorded in the future and decreasing the reported net income and earnings per share.

 

WE MAY INCUR SIGNIFICANT LIABILITIES IF WE FAIL TO COMPLY WITH STRINGENT ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATIONS OR IF WE DID NOT COMPLY WITH THESE REGULATIONS IN THE PAST.

 

We are subject to a variety of Federal, state, and local governmental regulations related to the use, storage, discharge, and disposal of toxic or otherwise hazardous chemicals used in our manufacturing process. Although we believe that our activities conform to environmental regulations, the failure to comply with present or future regulations could result in fines being imposed on us, suspension of production, or a cessation of operations. We cannot assure that we have not in the past violated applicable laws or regulations which could result in required remediation or other liabilities.

 

IF WE ARE UNABLE TO COMPLY WITH SARBANES-OXLEY ACT SECTION 404 (“SECTION 404”) WE MAY BE ADVERSELY IMPACTED.

 

Section 404 of Sarbanes-Oxley requires that we establish and maintain an adequate internal control structure and procedures for financial reporting and assess on an on-going basis, the design and operating effectiveness of our internal control structure and procedures for financial reporting. Our independent registered public accounting firm is required to attest and audit both the design and operating effectiveness of our internal controls and management’s assessment of the design and the effectiveness of its internal controls. Although no known material weaknesses exist at this time, it is possible that material weaknesses may be found in the future. If we are unable to remediate the weaknesses, the independent registered public accounting firm would be required to issue an adverse opinion on our internal controls. It is uncertain what impact an adverse opinion would have upon our stock price.

Item 3.    Legal Proceedings

 

Certain former security holders and employees of Convergence.com Corporation, a company that was acquired by the Company in fiscal year 2000, filed claims against the Company in March 2001 alleging violations of state securities laws and certain other state law claims related to a stock option plan. The complaint alleged that the damages suffered by the individuals approximated $2.1 million, which was based on the number of stock options multiplied by the highest price of the Company’s common stock since the acquisition, and did not take into account the exercise price, which the plaintiffs would have had to pay to the Company if the options were exercised. The complaint also asserted claims for treble damages, an undetermined amount of punitive damages and reimbursement of attorney’s fees.

 

On January 23, 2004, the Superior Court of Forsyth County, Georgia, granted our motion for summary judgment in full, thereby dismissing all claims against the Company. In July 2005, the plaintiffs filed a brief in the Georgia Appeals Court to appeal the decision. The Company filed a response brief in August 2005, with oral arguments scheduled for September 2005. We will continue to assert our defenses to these claims and will continue to contest them vigorously; however, we cannot be sure that we will be successful in defending these claims in an appeal of the decision.

 

19


SeaChange International, Inc. (SeaChange) filed a suit against nCUBE, a business we acquired on December 31, 2004. The suit was filed in Federal district court in Delaware on June 13, 2000 for infringement of U.S. Patent No. 5,862,312 entitled Loosely Coupled Mass Storage Computer Cluster (the ‘312 patent). In instituting its infringement claim, SeaChange sought both a permanent injunction and damages in an unspecified amount. The trial began on September 18, 2000 to determine the sole issue of the validity of the ‘312 patent. At the conclusion of the trial on September 25, 2000, the district court entered a judgment that nCUBE infringed the ‘312 patent and that such claims of infringement were not invalid. No monetary damages were awarded. nCUBE appealed the district court’s judgment to the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit. On June 29, 2005, the Federal Circuit Court decided as a matter of law that we did not infringe SeaChange’s patent.

 

In the opinion of management, the ultimate resolution of the SeaChange suit (if the decision of the Federal Circuit Court described above is appealed by SeaChange) and other routine matters will not have a material effect on our business, its financial position, or results of operations.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

Business Overview

 

We are a global provider of integrated network solutions that include access and transport equipment, technical services and content and operation management systems for broadband networks. The Company operates in three business segments: C-COR Access and Transport, C-COR Network Services, and C-COR Solutions.

 

Our C-COR Access and Transport segment is responsible for the development, management, production, and support of our network infrastructure products, including our amplitude modulation headend/hub optical platform and line of optical nodes, a full offering of radio frequency amplifiers, digital video systems, and high quality, high capacity transport platforms for multiservice, packet-based networks.

 

23


Our C-COR Network Services segment provides technical services for engineering, design, and deployment of advanced applications over broadband networks, including outsourced operational services, network design and engineering, network integration, outside plant and construction services, and consulting to a variety of customers.

 

Our C-COR Solutions segment is responsible for development, integration, management, implementation, support, and sale of content management systems, including software and hardware, for delivery of video on demand and digital advertising as well as application-oriented software for subscriber activation and retention, network and service assurance, and workforce management.

 

Net sales for fiscal year 2005 were $237.3 million, a decrease of 1% from $240.9 million in fiscal year 2004, reflecting lower revenues from the sales of products and technical services, which were partially offset by higher revenues from sales of digital advertising insertion and operational support solutions. Our largest customers during the fiscal year were Time Warner Cable and Adelphia Communications (Adelphia), accounting for 18% and 14%, respectively, of net sales.

 

Our revenues from digital advertising and operational support systems increased 126% during the fiscal year, primarily as a result of our acquisition of the business of nCUBE Corporation (nCUBE) during the year. With the addition of the nCUBE business, we expect that our C-COR Solutions segment will contribute a higher proportion of net sales in the future. Multiple revenue recognition models are used in this segment based upon specific contractual terms including completed contract, percentage of completion, and software revenue accounting pursuant to AICPA Statement of Position 97-2, “Software Revenue Recognition”, as amended (see Note 2). As a result of these different models, reported net sales could fluctuate significantly in this segment and deferred revenue balances could grow causing a delay in recognition of revenue.

 

Our operating expenses grew from 28% of revenue in fiscal year 2004 to 47% of revenue in fiscal year 2005. The increased operating expenses were primarily related to increased personnel costs as a result of integrating our acquisitions, increased promotional costs, increased accounting and consulting fees, and increased amortization of intangibles and other charges associated with acquisitions. The increased accounting and consulting fees were primarily related to compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

 

Since May 2004, we have completed five acquisitions. These acquisitions further our strategic plan to provide products, services and software solutions to support the anticipated migration of today’s hybrid fiber coax networks to networks based on all-digital, Internet Protocol (IP) packet technology. Our acquisitions have significantly increased our goodwill and other intangible assets. At June 24, 2005, we had recorded $132.0 million of goodwill and $14.7 million of other intangible assets. While goodwill is no longer amortized, we are required to assess whether goodwill is impaired at least annually and more frequently if circumstances warrant. Any impairment of goodwill could result in a substantial charge to earnings, which would have a material adverse effect on our results of operation and financial position in the period in which such impairment is recorded. For additional information regarding goodwill and other intangibles, see Note 9.

 

We are subject to various risks associated with our business operations. For additional information concerning risks, refer to “Risks Related to Our Business,” in Part 1, Item 1 of this Form 10-K.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates, assumptions, and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the applicable period. Management bases its estimates, assumptions, and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates, assumptions, and judgments.

 

24


The critical accounting policies requiring estimates, assumptions, and judgments that we believe have the most significant impact on our consolidated financial statements are:

 

  Ÿ   Revenue recognition

 

  Ÿ   Allowances for doubtful accounts

 

  Ÿ   Valuation of inventories

 

  Ÿ   Valuation of goodwill, other intangible assets, and long-lived assets

 

  Ÿ   Restructuring costs

 

  Ÿ   Warranty liabilities

 

  Ÿ   Accounting for foreign currency translation and transactions

 

  Ÿ   Accounting for income taxes

 

Different assumptions and judgments would change estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements, which, in turn, could change the results from those reported.

 

Revenue Recognition.    We recognize revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, the sale price is fixed or determinable, and collectibility is reasonably assured. Revenue from product sales and sales-type leases is recognized based upon delivery terms. Revenue is recognized when the equipment has been shipped to the customer if delivery terms are origin-based (FOB Shipping Point and Ex-works). When delivery terms are destination-based (FOB Destination, Delivery duty unpaid (DDU) and Delivery duty paid (DDP)), revenue is recognized upon the delivery of the equipment. When payments are received upon product delivery and the agreement with the customer contains a customer acceptance clause, revenue is deferred until customer acceptance is obtained.

 

Service revenues, consisting of system design, field services, and other consulting engagements, are generally recognized as services are rendered in accordance with the terms of contracts. We also enter into multiple element contracts that entail delivery of both products and services. Revenue from these contracts is accounted for under the percentage of completion method. Under the percentage of completion method, for certain contracts we have recorded revenue by reference to the costs incurred to date and the estimated costs remaining to fulfill the contracts. For other contracts accounted for under the percentage of completion method, we record revenue and costs based on the units of delivery method. This method recognizes as revenue the contract price of units of the product delivered during each period and the costs allocable to the delivered units as the cost of earned revenue. Provisions for losses on service contracts are recognized during the period in which the loss first becomes apparent. For contracts accounted for under the percentage of completion method, we typically perform the services prior to billing the customer which gives rise to unbilled receivables. In these circumstances, billings usually occur shortly after we perform a specified amount of the work, as outlined in the contract. Unbilled receivables are expected to be billed and collected generally within three to six months.

 

Content and operations management systems revenues consist of equipment and application-oriented software to support the sale of video on demand systems, digital advertising insertion systems, and operational support systems. For our software licensing arrangements involving multiple elements, revenue is allocated to each element based on vendor specific objective evidence (VSOE) of fair values of the elements. Our VSOE of fair value is determined based on the price charged when the same element is sold separately. If VSOE of fair value does not exist for all elements in a multiple element arrangement, revenue is deferred until all undelivered elements without VSOE are delivered at which time we apply the residual method. Under the residual method, if VSOE exists for the undelivered elements, the fair value of the undelivered elements is deferred and recognized ratably, and the remaining portion of the arrangement is recognized as revenue upon delivery, which generally

 

25


occurs on completion of implementation of the system. License revenue allocated to software products, in certain circumstances, is recognized upon the delivery of the software products. For certain of our software license arrangements where professional services are being provided that are deemed to be essential to the functionality or are for significant production, modification, or customization of the software product, both the software product revenue and the professional service revenue are recognized on the completed-contract method, as the Company does not have the ability to reasonably estimate contract costs at the inception of the contracts. Under the completed-contract method, revenue is recognized when the contract is complete, and all direct costs and related revenues are deferred until that time. Beginning in fiscal year 2005, we recognize software license and associated professional services revenue for one of our software license products (mobile workforce management) using the percentage-of-completion method of accounting as we believe that our estimates of costs to complete and extent of progress toward completion of such contracts are reliable. Software maintenance and support service fees are generally billed and collected in advance of the associated maintenance contract term and are recorded as deferred revenue and recognized ratably under the straight-line method over the term of the contract. The entire amount of an estimated loss on a contract is accrued at the time a loss on a contract is projected.

 

Allowances for Doubtful Accounts.    We establish a general allowance for doubtful accounts based on percentages applied to certain aged receivable categories. These percentages are determined by a variety of factors, including current economic trends, contractual terms and conditions, and historical payment experience. In addition, we establish allowances for specifically identified doubtful accounts when a loss is deemed to be both probable and estimable. In the event that we are not able to predict changes in the financial condition of our customers, resulting in an unexpected problem with collectibility of receivables and our actual bad debts differ from estimates, or we adjust estimates in future periods, our established allowances may be insufficient and we may be required to record additional allowances. Alternatively, if we provided more allowances than are ultimately required, we may reverse a portion of such provisions in future periods based on our actual collection experience. In the event we adjust our allowance estimates, it could materially affect our operating results and financial position.

 

Valuation of Inventories.    Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined on the first-in, first-out method, with the exception of approximately ten percent of our consolidated net inventories at June 24, 2005, which were determined on a weighted-average cost method. We establish provisions for excess and obsolete inventories after evaluation of historical sales and usage, current economic trends, market conditions, product rationalization, forecasted sales, product lifecycles, and current inventory levels. This evaluation requires us to make estimates regarding future events in an industry where rapid technological changes are prevalent. It is possible that increases in inventory reserves may be required in the future if there is a decline in market conditions or if changes in expected product lifecycles occur. Alternatively, if market conditions improve or product lifecycles extend, we may have greater success in selling inventory that had previously been written down. In either event, the actual value of our inventory may be higher or lower and recognition of such difference will affect our cost of sales in a future period, which could materially affect our operating results and financial position.

 

Valuation of Goodwill, Other Intangible Assets, and Other Long-lived Assets.    We assess goodwill at least annually for impairment and more frequently if circumstances warrant. We have chosen the end of the third quarter of each fiscal year as the period for performing our annual assessment. The impairment assessment is performed in two steps: (i) we determine whether impairment is indicated by comparing the fair value of each of our reporting units with its carrying value and (ii) if there is an indication of impairment, we measure the amount of impairment loss by comparing the implied fair value of goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. We normally calculate the fair value of our reporting units by using the projected discounted cash flow method using a discount rate we determine to be commensurate with the risk inherent in our current business. If impairment is indicated, we allocate the fair value of the reporting unit to the reporting unit’s individual assets and liabilities. The residual value is the implied fair value of goodwill. The difference between the carrying amount of the goodwill and the implied fair value of the goodwill is recorded as an impairment loss. We also

 

26


assess other intangible assets and other long-lived assets for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying value may not be recoverable through the estimated undiscounted future cash flows resulting from the use of the assets. When an impairment of goodwill, intangible assets, or long-lived assets is determined, it is recorded as a charge against earnings in the period when recognized. For additional information regarding goodwill and other intangible assets, refer to Note 9 of our consolidated financial statements.

 

Restructuring Costs.    For restructuring activities initiated prior to December 31, 2002, we recorded restructuring costs in accordance with the provisions of Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 94-3, “Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)” and Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 100, “Restructuring and Impairment Charges.” Restructuring costs were recorded when the Company committed to an exit plan and significant changes to the exit plan were not likely. We estimated the future amounts to be incurred as a result of exit plans and recorded the amounts as a charge against earnings. For restructuring activities initiated after December 31, 2002, restructuring costs are recorded in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 146, “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities” (Statement 146). The principal difference between Statement 146 and EITF Issue No. 94-3 relates to when an entity can recognize a liability related to exit or disposal costs. Statement 146 requires that a liability be recognized for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity when the liability is incurred, as opposed to EITF Issue No. 94-3, which allowed a liability related to an exit or disposal activity to be recognized on the date an entity committed to an exit plan. For additional information regarding restructuring costs, refer to Note 4 of our consolidated financial statements. Revisions to our estimates could result in an additional charge to earnings or a reversal of previously recorded charges, which could materially affect our operating results and financial position in future periods if anticipated events and key assumptions change.

 

Warranty Liabilities.    We warranty our products against defects in materials and workmanship, generally for one to five years, depending upon product lines and geographic regions. A provision for estimated future costs related to warranty activities is recorded when the product is shipped, based upon our historical experience of known product failure rates and historical costs incurred in correcting product failures. In addition, from time to time, the recorded amount is adjusted for specifically identified warranty exposures if unforeseen technical problems arise. In the event that our historical experience of product failure rates and costs of correcting product failures change, or our estimates relating to probable losses resulting from specifically identified warranty exposures change, we may be required to record additional warranty reserves. Alternatively, if we provided more reserves than we needed, we may reverse a portion of such provisions in future periods. In the event we change our warranty reserve estimates, the resulting charge against future cost of sales or reversal of previously recorded charges may materially affect our operating results and financial position.

 

Accounting for Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions.    In preparing our consolidated financial statements, we are required to translate the financial statements of our foreign subsidiaries from the currency in which they keep their accounting records, generally the local currency, into United States dollars. This process results in exchange gains and losses which, are either included within the consolidated statement of operations or as a separate component of shareholders’ equity. Under the relevant accounting guidance the treatment of these translation gains or losses is dependent upon management’s determination of the functional currency of each subsidiary. The functional currency is determined based upon management’s judgment and involves consideration of all relevant economic facts and circumstances affecting the subsidiary. Generally, the currency in which the subsidiary transacts a majority of its transactions, including billing, financing, payroll and other expenditures would be considered the functional currency but any dependency upon the parent company, and the nature of the subsidiary’s operations must also be considered. If any subsidiary’s functional currency is deemed to be the local currency, then any gain or loss associated with the translation of the subsidiary’s financial statements is included in shareholders’ equity. However, if the functional currency is deemed to be the United States dollar, then any gain or loss associated with the translation of the subsidiary’s financial statements would be included within our consolidated statement of operations. If we dispose of any of our subsidiaries, any

 

27


cumulative translation gains or losses would be realized in our consolidated statement of operations. If we determine that there has been a change in the functional currency of a subsidiary to the United States dollar, any translation gains or losses arising after the date of change would be included within our consolidated statement of operations. We convert the assets and liabilities of foreign operations into their United States dollar equivalents at rates in effect at the balance sheet dates. The statements of operations of foreign operations are translated from the operation’s functional currency to the United States dollar equivalents at average rates for the period. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses resulting from settlement of foreign receivables and payables, including certain cross-currency intercompany activities where payment is expected to be satisfied in the normal course of business, are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations. Other cross-currency intercompany activities, where management has no intent to require payment in the foreseeable future, are recorded in shareholders’ equity as a component of other comprehensive income (loss). In the event management’s intent with respect to cross-currency intercompany activities changes, such changes could result in future foreign currency gains or losses that may materially affect our operating results and financial position.

 

Accounting for Income Taxes.    We estimate our income taxes for each of the jurisdictions in which we operate. This involves estimating our actual current income tax payable and assessing temporary differences resulting from differing treatment of items, such as reserves and accruals, for tax and accounting purposes. Deferred taxes arise due to temporary differences in the bases of assets and liabilities and from net operating losses and credit carryforwards. In general, deferred tax assets represent future tax benefits to be received when certain expenses previously recognized in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations become deductible expenses under applicable income tax laws or loss or credit carryforwards are utilized. Accordingly, realization of deferred tax assets is dependent on future taxable income against which these deductions, losses and credits can be utilized. In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Management considers historical operating losses, scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment

 

Business Combinations

 

On July 16, 2004, we acquired all the outstanding securities of Stargus, Inc. (Stargus), a privately held company headquartered in Andover, Massachusetts. Stargus is a provider of comprehensive network and service management solutions for cable broadband operators. Stargus became part of our C-COR Solutions segment. The purchase price for the acquisition was $17.2 million, consisting of a cash payment of $17.0 million and direct transaction costs of approximately $185,000.

 

On September 3, 2004, we acquired certain assets and liabilities of Optinel Systems, Inc. (Optinel), a privately held company located in Elkridge, Maryland. Optinel is a provider of optical Ethernet transport solutions for residential and business services. Optinel became part of our C-COR Access and Transport segment. The purchase price for the acquisition was $9.6 million, consisting of a cash payment of $9.5 million and direct transaction costs of approximately $116,000, subject to certain adjustments. Additional cash payments of up to $6.0 million are required to be made to Optinel shareholders if certain sales objectives are achieved within thirteen months from the date of acquisition. Upon satisfaction of the contingency, the additional consideration will be recorded as additional cost of the acquisition and goodwill will increase. Based upon our forecast of the sales objectives through the earn-out period, we do not believe additional consideration will result in a material increase in goodwill.

 

On December 31, 2004, we completed the acquisition of the business of nCUBE Corporation (nCUBE), a privately held company headquartered in Beaverton, Oregon. nCUBE is a worldwide provider of on demand media and digital advertising systems. nCUBE became part of our C-COR Solutions segment. Consideration for the acquisition consisted of 4.5 million shares of our common stock, $35.0 million principal amount of our 3.5% senior unsecured 5-year convertible notes, $20.0 million in cash, and the assumption of certain liabilities. We

 

28


recorded direct costs for the acquisition of approximately $965,000. The common stock portion of the purchase consideration was based upon our average common stock price over a period which included two days before and after the measurement date, which was October 22, 2004. Based upon the average common stock price, the aggregate purchase consideration was $88.6 million, excluding certain liabilities assumed. The cash component of the consideration was funded from our existing cash balances.

 

During fiscal year 2005, we recorded additional goodwill of $93.7 million related to acquisitions. Other intangible assets acquired in the acquisitions included $7.8 million for completed technology and $1.9 million for customer relationships, which are being amortized over their useful lives of three to five years. One of the acquired intangible assets was in-process research and development, representing research and development projects that were commenced but not yet completed at the date of the acquisitions, and which if unsuccessful, have no alternative future use in research and development activities or otherwise. The value allocated to in-process research and development as of their respective acquisitions dates was $5.9 million. The amount allocated to in-process research and development was charged to expense as an acquired in-process technology charge in the consolidated statement of operations for fiscal year 2005.

Fiscal 2005 Compared to Fiscal 2004

 

Net Sales.    Sales on a consolidated basis declined in fiscal year 2005 resulting from lower product and technical service sales, which were partially offset by a 126% increase in sales for digital advertising insertion systems and operational support software solutions, which included product lines acquired from nCUBE. Our largest customers for fiscal year 2005 were Time Warner Cable and Adelphia, accounting for 18% and 14%, respectively, of net sales.

 

C-COR Access and Transport segment sales decreased 6% during fiscal year 2005, which was attributable to lower product sales to certain domestic cable operators, including Adelphia, Comcast and Cox, as well as customers in the Asia Pacific region. The decline was partially offset by increased sales in Europe, as we benefited from increased capital spending in regions such as Spain and the United Kingdom. Sales of radio frequency amplifiers decreased 9% to $100.7 million in fiscal year 2005 from $111.1 million in fiscal year 2004. Optical product sales declined 2%, to $72.5 million in fiscal year 2005, compared to $73.8 million in fiscal year 2004.

 

C-COR Network Services segment sales decreased 12% during fiscal year 2005 resulting from lower outside plant technical service revenues related to network upgrade and build-out activities, which were partially offset by increased outsourced operational recurring service revenues which include system maintenance, customer service call and installation activities.

 

C-COR Solutions segment sales increased 126% for fiscal year 2005, reflecting sales of our operational support systems, as well as sales deriving from the acquisition of nCUBE. With the acquisition of nCUBE, we now provide systems and software for applications such as broadband video on demand (VOD) and advertising insertion to a global customer base. The nCUBE acquisition contributed approximately $12.6 million in sales during the last half of fiscal year 2005. The majority of revenues in this segment is derived from sales under multiple element arrangements, whereby revenues are recognized using the completed contract method of accounting or, in some cases, are recognized ratably over the delivery period. As a result, revenues in the C-COR Solutions segment are affected by the timing of new orders and customer acceptance requirements. In fiscal year 2005, we began recognizing software license and associated professional services revenue for our mobile workforce software product line using the percentage of completion method of accounting due to our ability to reliably estimate contract costs at the inception of those contracts.

 

Domestic sales of C-COR Access and Transport and C-COR Network Services segments declined during fiscal year 2005, due to lower spending for both products and technical services by certain cable operators. These decreases were partially offset by increased domestic sales for our C-COR Solutions segment, due to product lines acquired from nCUBE.

 

31


International sales increased for C-COR Access and Transport and C-COR Solutions segments during fiscal year 2005. Increased sales in Europe and Latin America were partially offset by lower sales in the Asia Pacific region. We believe growth in capital spending in European markets is driven by increased competition for enhanced broadband services requiring telecommunication providers to upgrade their networks to support these enhanced services. Historically, our international sales have been primarily C-COR Access and Transport segment sales, but we anticipate increased revenues internationally from our C-COR Solutions segment in future periods. We expect demand for our product line offerings in international markets will continue to be highly variable. The international markets represent distinct markets in which capital spending decisions for network equipment and solutions are affected by a variety of factors, including access to financing and general economic conditions.

Our backlog increased for C-COR Access & Transport primarily due to increased bookings from international customers. Our backlog decreased for C-COR Network Services due to the substantial completion of system upgrade work from Adelphia and changes made during the year to our criteria for recognizing customer commitments as backlog and for quantifying the amounts to be included in backlog in this segment. The increase in backlog for C-COR Solutions resulted from acquired backlog from nCUBE, as well as increased domestic and international software license and maintenance bookings during the year. We include in backlog customer orders that are anticipated to result in revenue being recognized over the next twelve months. The majority of orders in backlog for C-COR Access and Transport will result in revenue over the next six months while orders in backlog of the other two segments typically include a portion that will result in revenue over the latter part of the twelve month period.

 

We make management decisions based on our backlog, including hiring of personnel, purchasing of materials, and other matters that may increase our production capabilities and costs. Cancellations, delays or reductions of orders could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

Consolidated gross margins decreased during fiscal year 2005, resulting from shifts in product mix during the year. For the C-COR Access and Transport segment, gross margins increased due to product mix changes and $2.3 million of lower warranty costs resulting from settlement of previously recorded specific warranty liabilities for amounts below their recorded value during the year. For the C-COR Network Services segment, gross

margins declined due to higher project costs associated with upgrade projects and lower sales volume. For the C-COR Solutions segment, gross margins for the year declined as a result of product mix, as product lines acquired from nCUBE had lower margins than our other solution products. We anticipate that our future gross margins in our business segments will continue to be affected by many factors, including revenue levels in general, sales mix, competitive pricing pressures, the timing of new product introductions, and the timing of deployments for certain of our content and operations management support systems.

 

Selling and Administrative.    Selling and administrative expenses were $62.3 million (26% of net sales) in fiscal year 2005, compared to $43.3 million (18.0% of net sales) in fiscal year 2004. Selling and administrative expenses increased during the period as a result of increases in personnel and administrative expense due to the Lantern Communications, Inc. (Lantern) and Alopa Networks, Inc. (Alopa) acquisitions completed in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2004 and the Stargus, Optinel, and nCUBE acquisitions completed during fiscal year 2005. Additional increases in costs were incurred during the year associated with marketing and promotional expenses and accounting and consulting fees related to compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

 

Research and Product Development.    Research and product development expenses were $37.8 million (16% of net sales) in fiscal year 2005 compared to $21.5 million (8.9% of net sales) in fiscal year 2004. Research and product development expenses in the C-COR Access and Transport segment were $21.6 million for fiscal year 2005, compared to $16.6 million for fiscal year 2004. The increase was primarily due to higher personnel costs resulting from the acquisition of Lantern in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2004 and Optinel during fiscal year 2005. Research and product development expenses in the C-COR Solutions segment were $15.2 million in fiscal year 2005, compared to $4.3 million in fiscal year 2004. The increase was primarily due to higher personnel costs resulting from the acquisitions of Alopa in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2004 and Stargus and nCUBE during fiscal year 2005. Other research and product development expenses, not charged to segments, were $1.0 million in fiscal year 2005, compared to $592,000 in fiscal year 2004. The increase related to various general operating costs, including increased personnel costs. We believe sustained commitment to product development efforts will be required for us to remain competitive, and anticipate continuing investments in research and product development in future periods related to network distribution and transmission products, on demand systems, and operational support software solutions.

 

Restructuring Charges.    Restructuring charges were $993,000 in fiscal year 2005 compared to a recovery of restructuring charges of $272,000 in fiscal year 2004. During our second quarter of fiscal year 2005, we implemented restructuring initiatives to improve our operating performance and to eliminate redundancies resulting from acquisitions. During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2005, we incurred restructuring costs associated with settlement of certain contractual obligations related to closing our Pleasanton, California, facility, as well as employee severance and termination benefits associated with transitioning our manufacturing operation in Klagenfurt, Austria, to a contract manufacturer in the region. The restructuring charges during the year represented employee termination benefits for 74 employees.

 

Operating Income (Loss) By Segment.    Operating income (excluding unallocated items) for the C-COR Access and Transport segment in fiscal year 2005 was $36.1 million, compared to operating income of $49.8 million in fiscal year 2004. The decrease in operating income for fiscal year 2005 was primarily attributable to lower revenues and higher operating expenses, primarily research and development costs, resulting from the acquisition of Lantern in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2004 and Optinel during fiscal year 2005. Operating income (excluding unallocated items) for the C-COR Network Services segment in fiscal year 2005 was $1.3 million, compared to $5.3 million in fiscal year 2004. The decrease in operating income for fiscal year 2005 was due to lower revenues and gross margin which resulted from higher project costs for upgrades, primarily for Adelphia, during fiscal year 2005. Operating loss (excluding unallocated items) for the C-COR Solutions segment in fiscal year 2005 was $10.3 million, compared to operating income of $466,000 in fiscal year 2004. The increased operating loss for this segment in fiscal year 2005 resulted from lower gross margins and increased operating expense, primarily for research and development costs resulting from the acquisitions of Alopa during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2004, and Stargus and nCUBE during fiscal year 2005.

 

33


Interest Expense and Investment Income.    Interest expense was $680,000 in fiscal year 2005 compared to $87,000 in fiscal year 2004. The increase during fiscal year 2005 resulted from interest expense associated with our 3.5% senior unsecured convertible notes issued on December 31, 2004, in the acquisition of nCUBE.

 

Investment income was $1.3 million in fiscal year 2005, compared to $1.1 million in fiscal year 2004. Investment income increased in fiscal year 2005 due to higher investment returns compared to fiscal year 2004.

 

Gain on sale of bankruptcy trade claims.    During fiscal year 2005, no additional payments were received associated with the sale of our pre-petition bankruptcy trade claim against Adelphia and affiliates. During fiscal year 2004, we received $21.1 million in an initial cash payment for the sale of substantially all of our pre-petition bankruptcy trade claims. Additional amounts are being held in escrow pending the resolution of certain contingencies, and we could receive an additional payment of approximately $10.0 million, although the timing and amount of such recovery is uncertain at this time.

 

Income Tax Expense (Benefit).    Income tax benefit was $856,000 for fiscal year 2005 compared with income tax expense for fiscal year 2004 of $1.0 million. Income tax benefit for fiscal year 2005 included current taxes payable for state and foreign income taxes in certain jurisdictions where we were profitable, and generally reflected cash taxes payable, which was offset by the reversal of approximately $1.8 million in certain tax contingencies settled during the year. The Company has assessed the realizability of its deferred tax assets, giving consideration to historical operating losses, scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies. Management concluded during the third quarter of fiscal year 2003, as a result of the cumulative losses over the previous three years that a valuation allowance against net deferred tax assets was appropriate and recorded an allowance as of that date. As of June 24, 2005, realization of any future benefit from deductible temporary differences, net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards is uncertain in many of the taxing jurisdictions in which the Company operates. Therefore, we have continued to maintain a valuation allowance for substantially all of its deferred tax assets, with the exception of deferred tax assets in certain foreign jurisdictions where the Company is profitable. We expect to maintain valuation allowances related to deferred tax benefits until a level of profitability is achieved and sustained in the applicable tax jurisdiction that demonstrates it is more likely than not that the Company will be able to realize all or part of the deferred tax assets. In the event that we reverse the valuation allowance in the future, reported tax expense subsequent to such action will increase and will likely approximate the statutory rates in the various jurisdictions in which it operates.

 

Fiscal 2004 Compared to Fiscal 2003

 

Net Sales.    The increase in consolidated net sales for fiscal year 2004 was the result of capital spending and system upgrades by certain customers, primarily Adelphia, which positively affected both product and technical services revenues during the year, and increased spending on operational support software solutions. Our largest customers for fiscal year 2004 were Adelphia and Time Warner Cable, accounting for 20% and 16%, respectively, of net sales.

 

The increase in C-COR Access and Transport segment sales during fiscal year 2004 was primarily driven by increased capital spending by Adelphia and growth in our international sales. Sales of radio frequency amplifiers increased 15%, to $111.1 million in fiscal year 2004 from $96.8 million in fiscal year 2003. Optical product sales declined 3%, to $73.8 million in fiscal year 2004, compared to $76.0 million in fiscal year 2003. Shifts in product mix resulted from new build and upgrade requirements, which depend on the network architecture deployed by our customers.

 

The increase in C-COR Network Services segment sales during fiscal year 2004 resulted from increased spending by domestic cable operators, primarily Adelphia, on technical services, related to our outside plant technical services operations, which include system sweep, reverse path activation, ingress mitigation, node certification, and system maintenance.

 

34


The increase in C-COR Solutions segment sales during fiscal year 2004 was a result of customer acceptance of various network and workforce management software projects during the year. Our software revenues during fiscal year 2004 were primarily recognized using the completed-contract method.

 

Domestic sales increased in all three of our operating segments during fiscal year 2004. For our C-COR Access and Transport segment and our C-COR Network Services segment, the increase was driven by spending for both capital equipment and technical services by certain cable operators, primarily Adelphia. The increase for our C-COR Solutions segment was driven by increased deployments of network and workforce management software.

 

International sales increased in all geographic regions with the exception of Canada during fiscal year 2004. Our international sales were primarily C-COR Access and Transport segment sales.

Our backlog increased for the C-COR Access and Transport segment primarily due to increased bookings from international customers during the period. Our backlog increased in C-COR Network Services due to increased bookings of system upgrade work, primarily from Adelphia, during the period. The decline in backlog for C-COR Solutions resulted from the completion of several contracts during the year and lower new software bookings during the period.

Our gross margin increased in fiscal year 2004 as a result of increased gross margins in all operating segments. Gross margin for our C-COR Access and Transport segment was positively affected in fiscal year 2004 by higher volume and reduced costs resulting from the closing of our Manlius, New York manufacturing facility in fiscal year 2003. The gross margin for our C-COR Access and Transport segment for fiscal year 2003 was affected by a $19.6 million charge for an excess and obsolete inventory provision resulting from significant reductions in demand levels, product line rationalization decisions for overlapping product lines resulting from acquisitions, transition to an outsourced manufacturer of product lines determined to be at the end of their product lifecycle, and a refinement of our reserve estimation process to quantify reserve requirements for inventory levels in excess

 

35


of our forecasted demand. The increase in C-COR Network Services segment gross margin was due primarily to increased volume levels and labor and overhead efficiencies. C-COR Solutions segment gross margin increased as a result of the higher revenue recognized on network and workforce management software projects, due to the timing of customer acceptances.

 

Selling and Administrative.    Selling and administrative expenses were $43.3 million (18.0% of net sales) in fiscal year 2004, compared to $49.0 million (24.4% of net sales) in fiscal year 2003. The decrease resulted from reductions in our workforce implemented in fiscal year 2003 to achieve a more favorable cost structure, the collection of $2.2 million in delinquent accounts receivable that were previously reserved for, and the settlement of a liability related to certain marketing costs for $700,000 less than its recorded value.

 

Research and Product Development.    Research and product development expenses were $21.5 million (8.9% of net sales) in fiscal year 2004, compared to $27.0 million (13.5% of net sales) in fiscal year 2003. Research and product development expenses in the C-COR Access and Transport segment were $16.6 million for fiscal year 2004, compared to $21.2 million for fiscal year 2003. The decrease was primarily due to lower personnel costs resulting from workforce reductions and the closing of our Louvier, France, operation in fiscal year 2003. Research and product development expenses in the C-COR Solutions segment were $4.3 million in fiscal year 2004, compared to $5.3 million in fiscal year 2003. The decrease was primarily due to lower personnel costs resulting from workforce reductions and lower expenses for the development of operational support solutions. Other research and product development expenses, not charged to segments, were $592,000 in fiscal year 2004, compared to $544,000 in fiscal year 2003.

 

Operating Income (Loss) By Segment.    Operating income (excluding unallocated items) for the C-COR Access and Transport segment in fiscal year 2004 was $49.8 million, compared to an operating loss of $7.8 million in fiscal year 2003. The increased operating income for fiscal year 2004 was primarily attributable to increased gross margins and lower operating expenses resulting from an improvement in our cost structure due to restructuring efforts completed during the prior fiscal year. In addition, the loss in fiscal year 2003 included increased provisions for excess and obsolete inventory compared to the current year. Operating income (excluding unallocated items) for the C-COR Network Services segment in fiscal year 2004 was $5.3 million, compared to $79,000 in fiscal year 2003. The increase in operating income for fiscal year 2004 was due to a 94% increase in sales volume, primarily related to upgrade work for Adelphia, which resulted in improved labor efficiencies and higher gross margins. Operating income (excluding unallocated items) for the C-COR Solutions segment in fiscal year 2004 was $466,000, compared to an operating loss of $7.9 million in fiscal year 2003. The increase in operating income for this segment resulted from a 136% increase in revenue recognized due to customer acceptance of various network and workforce management software projects, and lower research and development costs for operational support solutions.

 

Interest Expense and Investment Income.    Interest expense was $87,000 in fiscal year 2004, compared to $317,000 in fiscal year 2003. The difference in interest expense resulted primarily from a $200,000 imputed interest charge incurred in the prior year period related to our Philips Broadband Networks (PBN) acquisition.

 

Investment income was $1.1 million in fiscal year 2004, compared to $999,000 in fiscal year 2003. The increase in investment income resulted from higher average investment balances compared to fiscal year 2003, offset by lower interest rates. Our increased investment balances are a result of our common stock offering in February 2004, cash received in the sale of our trade claims against Adelphia and affiliates, and cash provided by operating and other financing activities during the year.

 

Foreign Exchange Gain (Loss).    Foreign exchange gain was $205,000 in fiscal year 2004, compared to a loss of $803,000 in fiscal year 2003. The foreign exchange gain resulted primarily from a weakening of the U.S. dollar against the Euro over the year. In addition, the loss in the prior year included a $1.6 million loss related to the settlement of a foreign exchange forward contract.

 

36


Gain on Sale of Bankruptcy Trade Claims.    We filed unsecured claims in the bankruptcy cases of Adelphia and affiliates related to accounts receivable which were previously written-off in fiscal year 2002. In October 2003, we entered into an agreement to sell substantially all of our pre-petition bankruptcy trade claims against Adelphia and affiliates. Under the terms of the agreement, we received $21.1 million on November 4, 2003 in an initial cash payment.

 

Other Income, Net.    Other income, net was $371,000 in fiscal year 2004, compared to other income, net of $905,000 in fiscal year 2003. Other income, net for fiscal year 2003 included $800,000 as a partial recovery on a note receivable from a third party that had been fully reserved in fiscal year 2002.

 

Income Tax Expense.    Income tax expense was $1.0 million for fiscal year 2004, compared with income tax expense for fiscal year 2003 of $47.0 million. Income taxes for fiscal year 2004 include current taxes payable for federal alternative minimum tax, state, and foreign income taxes in certain jurisdictions where we were profitable, and generally reflect cash taxes payable. During fiscal year 2003, we assessed the realizability of our deferred tax assets, and as a result determined that realization of any future benefit was uncertain as of June 27, 2003 and recorded additional valuation allowances for the amount of its net deferred tax assets, with the exception of certain net deferred tax assets in specific foreign jurisdictions.

As of June 24, 2005, cash and cash equivalents totaled $43.3 million, down from $63.8 million at June 25, 2004, primarily due to cash used for acquisitions and operating activities during the fiscal year. Marketable securities decreased to $9.3 million at June 24, 2005, from $52.9 million at June 25, 2004. Working capital was $86.1 million at June 24, 2005, compared to $140.7 million at June 25, 2004. The decrease in working capital resulted primarily from cash used for acquisitions during the fiscal year.

 

As of June 24, 2005, we had restricted cash of $3.7 million, of which $3.1 million is restricted under the terms of our letter of credit agreement with a bank, as we are required to maintain cash collateral of 102% of the amount that can be drawn on issued letters of credit. An additional $0.6 million was restricted related to vendor obligations. The total restricted cash balance has been classified as a current asset as of June 24, 2005 as the terms of the letters of credit and vendor obligations expire in less than one year. We are entitled to the interest earnings on the restricted cash balance.

 

Net cash used by operating activities was $12.6 million in fiscal year 2005, compared with net cash provided of $49.3 million for the same period of the prior year. The major elements of the change for fiscal year 2005 include a net loss for the period of $25.7 million, which is adjusted for non-cash items such as depreciation and amortization and acquired in-process technology charges, increased inventories and other various operating assets and liabilities, which was partially offset by increases in accounts payable and accrued liabilities. Cash provided by operating activities for the same period of the prior year included $21.1 million received on the sale of our trade claims against Adelphia and affiliates.

 

37


Net cash used in investing activities was $9.2 million for fiscal year 2005, compared to $87.7 million for the same period of the prior year. The cash used in investing activities during the fiscal year was comprised primarily of $47.1 million of cash used for acquisitions, $14.3 million for purchases of marketable securities, and $6.0 million for the purchase of property, plant and equipment, which were partially offset by $58.0 million of proceeds on the sale of marketable securities.

 

Net cash provided by financing activities was $1.1 million for fiscal year 2005, compared with $79.2 million for the same period of the prior year. Cash provided by financing activities during fiscal year resulted primarily from proceeds from the exercise of stock options and warrants and proceeds from the issuance of stock to our employee stock purchase plan. Cash provided by financing activities for the same period of the prior year included $69.5 million of proceeds received from our follow-on offering of common stock and $9.9 million in proceeds from the exercise of stock options and warrants.

 

On November 5, 2004, we entered into a credit agreement (the “Agreement”) with a bank for a $10.0 million revolving letter of credit facility. Under the Agreement, the $10.0 million may be used solely for the issuance of letters of credit which must be fully cash collateralized at the time of issuance. The Company maintains with the bank cash collateral of 102% of the amount that can be drawn on the issued letter of credit. This collateral can be drawn on upon the occurrence of any event of default. The Agreement contains standard events of default provisions, but no financial covenants.

 

The Agreement is committed through November 4, 2005. The applicable margin under the Agreement is 0.65%, payable quarterly in arrears. In the event that a letter of credit is drawn upon, the interest rate for any unreimbursed drawing will be the bank’s floating prime rate.

 

As of June 24, 2005, the aggregate amount of letters of credit issued under the Agreement was $3.0 million and a cash compensating balance of $3.1 million (including interest earned on the account) was maintained to secure the letters of credit, which has been classified as restricted cash on the consolidated balance sheet.

 

On December 31, 2004, we issued $35.0 million of our 3.5% senior unsecured convertible notes (the “Notes”) due on December 31, 2009 as part of the consideration for the nCUBE acquisition. Interest on the Notes is payable semi-annually at the annual rate of 3.5% on June 30 and December 30 beginning June 30, 2005. Each Note may be converted by the holder, at its option, into shares of our common stock at a conversion rate of 81.0905 shares per $1,000 of principal amount of the Note (as may be adjusted upon the occurrence of certain specified events). The Notes are convertible at any time before the close of business on the maturity date, unless we have previously repurchased the Notes.

 

In the event of a change of control of the Company, each holder of a Note shall have the right to require us to repurchase such holder’s Notes. Upon this repurchase, the holder of the Note shall receive the purchase price, which is set forth in the Notes and varies depending on the date of the repurchase and our stock price at the time of repurchase, together with any accrued but unpaid interest up to, but not including, the date of the repurchase. On any date on or after December 31, 2007, and prior to maturity, the Notes may be redeemed at our option, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes, together with any accrued but unpaid interest up to, but not including, the date of redemption.

 

The Notes are subject to customary events of default, the occurrence of which could lead to an acceleration of our obligations thereunder. The events of default include default on the payment of interest or principal on the Notes, our failure to convert the Notes upon exercise, our failure to provide notice to Noteholders upon a change of control and the acceleration of the maturity of indebtedness of the Company or its subsidiaries in an aggregate amount of $20.0 million or more that is not rescinded, stayed or annulled within 30 days after written notice of default is provided by the lender of such indebtedness.

Working Capital Outlook

 

Our main source of liquidity is our unrestricted cash on hand and short-term marketable securities. In fiscal year 2005, we issued $35.0 million aggregate principal amount of Notes requiring semi-annual interest payments at an annual rate of 3.5% on June 30 and December 30, which mature on December 30, 2009 as part of the consideration in the nCUBE acquisition. In addition, earn out payments related to the Optinel acquisition of up to $6.0 million are required to be made if certain performance targets are met within 13 months of the closing date. We expect to continue to incur integration costs during the first quarter of fiscal year 2006.

 

Taking into account the fixed charges associated with our long-term debt obligations and the potential contingent earn-out payments from the Optinel acquisition, we believe remaining cash and cash equivalents balances, and our marketable securities will be adequate to cover our operating cash requirements over the next 12 to 18 months. However, we may find it necessary or desirable to seek financing to support our capital needs and provide funds for additional strategic initiatives including acquiring or investing in complementary business, products, services, or technologies. Accordingly, this may require third-party financing or equity-based financing, such as issuance of common stock, preferred stock, or subordinated convertible debt securities and warrants, which would be dilutive to existing shareholders. We do not currently have any committed lines of credit or other available credit facilities that could be utilized for capital requirements, and it is uncertain whether such facilities could be obtained in sufficient amounts or on acceptable terms.

 

Accounting Pronouncements

 

In March 2005, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) published FASB Interpretation No. 47, “Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations” (FIN 47), which will result in (a) more consistent

 

39


recognition of liabilities relating to asset retirement obligations, (b) more information about expected future cash outflows associated with those obligations, and (c) more information about investments in long-lived assets because additional asset retirement costs will be recognized as part of the carrying amounts of the assets. FIN 47 clarifies that the term conditional asset retirement obligation as used in SFAS No. 143, “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations”, refers to a legal obligation to perform an asset retirement activity in which the time and (or) method of settlement are conditional on a future event that may or may not be within the control of the entity. The obligation to perform the asset retirement activity is unconditional even though uncertainty exists about the timing and (or) method of settlement. Uncertainty about the time and (or) method of settlement of a conditional asset retirement obligation should be factored into the measurement of the liability when sufficient information exists. FIN 47 also clarifies when an entity would have sufficient information to reasonably estimate the fair value of an asset retirement obligation. FIN 47 is effective no later than the end of fiscal years ending after December 15, 2005. Retrospective application of interim financial information is permitted but is not required. Early adoption of this Interpretation is encouraged. As FIN 47 was recently issued, we have not determined whether we will adopt FIN 47 early but does not expect the adoption to have a significant adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations.

 

In December 2004, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123R, “Share-Based Payment” (Statement 123R). Statement 123R is a revision of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” (Statement 123) and supersedes Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 (Opinion No. 25), “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and its related implementation guidance. Statement 123R focuses primarily on accounting for transactions in which an entity obtains employee services in share-based payment transactions. Statement 123R requires entities to recognize compensation cost for awards of equity instruments to employees based on the grant-date fair value of those awards (with limited exceptions). Statement 123R is effective for us in the first annual reporting period that begins after June 15, 2005.

 

We are required to adopt Statement 123R on June 25, 2005, using the modified prospective application method of Statement 123R. Under the modified prospective application method, awards that are granted, modified or settled after the date of adoption will be measured and accounted for in accordance with Statement 123R. Unvested equity-classified awards that were granted prior to the effective date would continue to be accounted for in accordance with Statement 123 except that amounts must be recognized in the income statement. Adoption of Statement 123R will not affect our cash flows, but it will reduce reported income and earnings per share because we currently use the intrinsic value method as permitted by Opinion No. 25. Accordingly, no compensation cost is currently recognized for share purchase rights granted under the Company’s employee stock option plans. The adoption of Statement 123R will result in the Company recording compensation cost for employee stock options. Had the Company expensed employee stock options under Statement 123, in prior periods the impact of that standard would have been as described in the disclosure of pro forma net income (loss) and net income (loss) per share in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements. Changes in assumptions under Statement 123R could impact compensation costs in the future.

 

In November 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 151 “Inventory Costs, an Amendment of ARB No. 43 Chapter 4” (Statement 151). Statement 151 requires that items such as idle facility expense, excessive spoilage, double freight, and rehandling be recognized as current-period charges rather than being included in inventory regardless of whether the costs meet the criterion of abnormal as defined in ARB 43. Statement 151 is applicable for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. The Company adopted this standard on June 25, 2005 and does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operation.

 

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 153, “Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets, an Amendment of APB Opinion No. 29” (Statement 153). Statement 153 is based on the principle that exchanges of nonmonetary assets should be measured based on the fair value of the assets exchanged. This statement amends APB 29 to eliminate the exception for nonmonetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replaces it with a general exception for exchanges of nonmonetary assets that do not have commercial substance. A nonmonetary exchange has commercial substance if the future cash flows of the entity are expected to change significantly as a result of

 

40


the exchange. Statement 153 is effective for nonmonetary exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005. The Company adopted this standard on June 25, 2005 and does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.

 

Item 7A.    Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

Market risk represents the risk of loss that may impact the financial position, results of operations, or cash flow of the Company due to adverse changes in market prices, foreign currency exchange rates, and interest rates. The Company is exposed to market risk because of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates, and changes in the fair market value of its marketable securities portfolio.

 

The Company is exposed to foreign currency exchange rate risks inherent in its sales commitments, anticipated sales, and assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the United States dollar. We attempt to minimize exposure to currencies by managing our operating activities and net asset positions. As of June 24, 2005, our exposure to foreign currencies related primarily to intercompany foreign currency transactions where settlement is anticipated.

 

The Company does not use derivative instruments in its marketable securities portfolio. The Company classifies its investments in its marketable securities portfolio as either available-for-sale or trading, and records them at fair value. For the Company’s available-for-sale securities, unrealized holding gains and losses are excluded from income and are recorded directly to shareholders’ equity in accumulated other comprehensive income, net of related deferred income taxes, if applicable. For the Company’s trading securities, unrealized holding gains and losses are included in the statement of operations in the period they arise. Changes in interest rates are not expected to have a material effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

C-COR Incorporated:

 

We have audited management’s assessment, included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reportings that C-COR Incorporated maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of June 24, 2005 based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). C-COR Incorporated’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on management’s assessment and an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.

 

We conducted our audit 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 effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, evaluating management’s assessment, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and board of directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

 

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

 

In our opinion, management’s assessment that C-COR Incorporated maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of June 24, 2005, is fairly stated, in all material respects, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Also, in our opinion, C-COR Incorporated maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of June 24, 2005, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).

 

C-COR Incorporated acquired nCUBE Corporation during the fiscal year ended June 24, 2005, and management excluded from its assessment of the effectiveness of C-COR Incorporated’s internal control over financial reporting as of June 24, 2005, nCUBE Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting associated with total assets of $36.8 million and total revenues of $12.6 million included in the consolidated financial statements

 

42


of C-COR Incorporated and subsidiaries as of and for the fiscal year ended June 24, 2005. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting of C-COR Incorporated also excluded an evaluation of the internal control over financial reporting of nCUBE Corporation.

 

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets of C-COR Incorporated and subsidiaries as of June 24, 2005 and June 25, 2004, and the related consolidated statements of operations, cash flows, and shareholders’ equity for each of the three fiscal years in the period ended June 24, 2005, and our report dated September 7, 2005 expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements.

The Board of Directors and Stockholders

C-COR Incorporated:

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of C-COR Incorporated and subsidiaries as of June 24, 2005 and June 25, 2004, and the related consolidated statements of operations, cash flows, and shareholders’ equity for each of the three fiscal years in the period ended June 24, 2005. In connection with our audits of the consolidated financial statements, we also have audited the financial statement schedule as of June 24, 2005, and for each of the three fiscal years in the period ended June 24, 2005. These consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated 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, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of C-COR Incorporated and subsidiaries as of June 24, 2005 and June 25, 2004, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three fiscal years in the period ended June 24, 2005, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Also in our opinion, the related 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.

 

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the effectiveness of C-COR Incorporated’s internal control over financial reporting as of June 24, 2005, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO), and our report dated September 7, 2005 expressed an unqualified opinion on management’s assessment of, and the effective operation of, internal control over financial reporting.

Note 2.    Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned foreign and domestic subsidiaries. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Fiscal Years

 

The Company’s fiscal year ends on the last Friday in June. The fiscal years ended June 24, 2005, June 25, 2004, and June 27, 2003 contained 52 weeks.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates are used in determining such items as allowances, depreciation and amortization lives, allocation of revenue in multiple element arrangements, valuation of intangible assets and goodwill, and amounts recorded for contingencies and other

reserves. Future events and their effects cannot be predicted with certainty; accordingly, the Company’s accounting estimates require the exercise of judgment by management. The accounting estimates used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements will change as new events occur, as more experience is acquired, as additional information is obtained and as the Company’s operating environment changes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Reclassifications

 

Certain prior year amounts in the financial statements and notes have been reclassified to conform to the fiscal year 2005 presentation.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, the sale price is fixed or determinable, and collectibility is reasonably assured.

 

Products:

 

Revenue from product sales and sales-type leases is recognized based upon delivery terms. Revenue is recognized when the equipment has been shipped to the customer when delivery terms are origin-based (e.g., FOB Shipping Point and Ex-works). When delivery terms are destination-based (e.g. FOB Destination, Delivery duty unpaid (DDU) and Delivery duty paid (DDP)), revenue is recognized upon the delivery of the equipment. Unbilled receivables associated with transactions accounted for as sales-type leases were $56 and $322 at June 24, 2005 and June 25, 2004, respectively. In instances in which payments are received upon product delivery and the agreement with the customer contains a customer acceptance clause, revenue is deferred until customer acceptance is obtained. Deferred revenue recorded under these arrangements were $116 and $204 at June 24, 2005 and June 25, 2004, respectively.

 

Services:

 

Service revenues, consisting of system design, field services, and consulting engagements, are recognized as services are rendered in accordance with the terms of contracts. At times, the Company enters into multiple element contracts that entail delivery of both products and services. These contracts are accounted for under the percentage of completion method in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Research Bulletin No. 45, “Long-Term Construction-Type Contracts” (ARB No. 45) using the relevant guidance in AICPA Statement of Position 81-1, “Accounting for Performance of Construction-Type and Certain Production-Type Contracts” (SOP 81-1). Under the percentage of completion method, for certain contracts the Company records revenue by reference to the costs incurred to date and the estimated costs remaining to fulfill the contracts. For other contracts accounted for under the percentage of completion method, revenue and costs are recognized on the units of delivery method. This method recognizes as revenue the contract price of units of the product delivered during each period and the costs allocable to the delivered units as the cost of earned revenue. Provisions for losses on services contracts are recognized in the period in which the loss first becomes apparent. For contracts accounted for under the percentage of completion method, the Company typically performs the service prior to billing the customer which gives rise to unbilled receivables. In these circumstances, billings usually occur shortly after the Company performs specific intervals of work, as outlined in the contract. Unbilled receivables are expected to be billed and collected generally within three to six months. Unbilled receivables totaled $1,227 and $3,172 at June 24, 2005 and June 25, 2004, respectively. In some of the Company’s other service contracts, the Company bills the customer prior to performing

services which gives rise to deferred revenue. Deferred revenue under these service contracts was $0 and $502 at June 24, 2005 and June 25, 2004, respectively. Deferred costs under units of delivery contracts were $2,506 and $0 at June 24, 2005 and June 25, 2004, respectively.

 

Content and Operations Management Systems:

 

Content and operations management systems revenue consist of equipment and application software to support the sale of video on demand systems, digital advertising insertion systems and operational support systems. Software and associated system product revenues are recognized based on the guidance of AICPA Statement of Position (SOP) 97-2, “Software Revenue Recognition” (SOP 97-2), as amended. In multiple element arrangements, the Company allocates revenue to the various elements based on vendor-specific objective evidence (VSOE) of fair value. The Company’s VSOE of fair value is determined based on the price charged when the same element is sold separately. If VSOE of fair value does not exist for all elements in a multiple element arrangement, revenue is deferred until all undelivered elements without VSOE are delivered, at which time the Company applies the residual method. Under the residual method, if VSOE exists for the undelivered elements, the fair value of the undelivered elements is deferred and recognized ratably, and the remaining portion of the arrangement is recognized as revenue upon delivery, which generally occurs on completion of implementation of the system.

 

For software license arrangements where professional services are being provided and are deemed to be essential to the functionality or are for significant production, modification, or customization of the software product, both the software and the associated professional service revenue are recognized in accordance with the provisions of ARB 45 and SOP 81-1. Many of these software and professional services arrangements are recognized using the completed-contract method as the Company does not have the ability to reasonably estimate contract costs at the inception of the contracts. Under the completed-contract method, revenue is recognized when the contract is complete, and all direct costs and related revenues are deferred until that time. In fiscal year 2005, the Company began recognizing software license and associated professional services revenue for one of its software license products (mobile workforce management) using the percentage-of-completion method of accounting as the Company believes that its estimates of costs to complete and extent of progress toward completion of such contracts are reliable. The entire amount of an estimated loss on a contract is accrued at the time a loss on a contract is projected. Actual losses may differ from these estimates.

 

Software maintenance and support services fees are generally billed and collected in advance of the associated maintenance contract term. Maintenance and support services fees collected are recorded as deferred revenue and recognized ratably under the straight-line method over the term of the contract. Unbilled receivables totaled $309 and $0, at June 24, 2005 and June 25, 2004, respectively.

 

Deferred revenue represents only amounts billed, and totaled $17,882 and $1,437 at June 24, 2005 and June 25, 2004, respectively. Contract costs consist primarily of direct labor and applicable benefits, travel and other direct costs, and equipment costs. Deferred costs under these contracts were $4,320 and $15 as of June 24, 2005 and June 25, 2004, respectively.

 

Shipping and Handling Costs

 

The Company classifies out-bound shipping and handling costs as a component of selling and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. Shipping and handling costs included in selling and administrative expense for fiscal years 2005, 2004, and 2003 were $2,773, $2,709, and $1,828, respectively.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash, cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, approximate their respective fair market values due to the short maturities of these financial instruments. The fair value of the Company’s senior unsecured convertible debt issued on December 31, 2004 and the Company’s other long-term borrowings was based on market prices for debt instruments of similar terms and comparable maturities. The fair value of the Company’s marketable securities is determined through information obtained from quoted market sources.

 

Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Marketable Securities

 

The Company invests its excess cash in deposits with major banks, corporate obligations, municipal securities, collateralized mortgage obligations, asset-backed securities, mutual funds, equity securities, and certificates of deposit. By policy, the Company invests primarily in high-grade marketable securities. The Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of default by the financial institutions or issuers of these investments to the extent of amounts recorded on the consolidated balance sheet.

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents, which are reflected at the lower of cost or market.

 

The Company classifies its marketable securities portfolios as either available-for-sale or trading, and records them at fair value. For the Company’s available-for-sale securities, unrealized holding gains and losses are excluded from the statement of operations and are recorded directly to shareholders’ equity in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of related deferred income taxes, if applicable. For the Company’s trading securities, unrealized holding gains and losses are included in the statement of operations in the period they arise. The Company classifies marketable securities that are available for current operations as a current asset. Marketable securities that are classified as non-current assets represent investments that are available to fund certain long-term liabilities.

 

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

 

The Company establishes a general allowance for doubtful accounts based on percentages applied to certain aged receivable categories. These percentages are determined by a variety of factors including, but not limited to, current economic trends, contractual terms and conditions, and historical payment experience. In addition, the Company establishes allowances for specifically identified doubtful accounts for the amount deemed worthless when a loss is determined to be both probable and estimable.

 

Inventories

 

Inventories include material, labor, and overhead and are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined primarily on the first-in, first-out method. For certain of the Company’s inventories, cost is determined using a weighted-average cost. The cost of inventory determined using a weighted-average cost method was $3,346 at June 24, 2005. In assessing the ultimate realization of inventories, the Company is required to make estimates regarding future events in an industry where rapid technological changes are prevalent. Provisions are established for excess and obsolete inventories after evaluation of historical sales and usage, current economic trends, market conditions, product rationalization, forecasted sales, product lifecycles, and current inventory levels.

Property, Plant, and Equipment

 

Property, plant, and equipment, which include leased property under capital leases, are stated at cost. Depreciation or amortization is calculated on the straight-line method for financial statement purposes based upon the following estimated useful lives:

 

Buildings

   15 to 25 years

Machinery and equipment under capital lease

   5 years

Machinery and equipment

   2 to 10 years

Leasehold improvements

   2 to 15 years

 

Computer Software

 

Under the provisions of AICPA Statement of Position SOP 98-1, “Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use” (SOP 98-1), the Company capitalizes costs associated with internally developed and/or purchased software systems for new products and enhancements to existing products that have reached the application development stage and meet recoverability tests. Capitalized costs include external direct costs of materials and services utilized in developing or obtaining internal-use software and payroll and payroll-related expenses for employees who are directly associated with and devote time to the internal-use software project. Capitalization of such costs begins when the preliminary project stage is complete and ceases no later than the point at which the project is substantially complete and ready for its intended purpose. These capitalized costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over periods of two to seven years, beginning when the asset is ready for its intended use.

 

Under the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 86, “Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed” (Statement 86), the Company capitalizes certain internal and purchased software development and production costs once technological feasibility has been achieved. Amortization is recorded on a product-by-product basis on the straight-line method over the remaining economic life of the product.

 

Software costs capitalized under SOP 98-1 and Statement 86 were $1,040, $336, and $2,902 during fiscal years 2005, 2004, and 2003, respectively. Capitalized costs are included in property, plant, and equipment on the consolidated balance sheets. Amortization expense for fiscal years 2005, 2004, and 2003 was $1,612, $1,510, and $1,432, respectively. The carrying value of the software is reviewed regularly and impairment is recognized if the value of the estimated undiscounted cash flow benefits related to the asset is less than the remaining unamortized costs.

 

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

 

Goodwill represents the excess of acquisition cost over the fair value of the net assets, including identifiable intangible assets, of businesses acquired. The Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations” effective July 1, 2001, and adopted SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,” (Statement 142) effective June 29, 2002. Statement 142 requires that goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives no longer be amortized, but instead be tested for impairment at least annually in accordance with the provisions of Statement 142 (see Note 9).

(In thousands, except share and per share data)

 

Other intangible assets represent purchased intangible assets, which include purchased technology, customer relationships, covenants not-to-compete, patents and trademarks. Amounts allocated to other identifiable intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives as follows:

 

Purchased technology

   3 to 5 years

Customer relationships

   3 to 5 years

Covenants not-to-compete

   1 to 2 years

Patents and trademarks

   3 years

 

The weighted-average life remaining of the Company’s identifiable intangible assets as of June 24, 2005 was 27 months.

 

Foreign Currency Translation

 

Where a currency other than the United States dollar is the functional currency, the Company converts the assets and liabilities of foreign operations to their United States dollar equivalents at rates in effect at the balance sheet dates, and records translation adjustments in shareholders’ equity. Where the United States dollar is the functional currency, the Company converts the assets and liabilities of foreign operations to their United States dollar equivalents at rates in effect at the balance sheet dates, and records translation adjustments in the consolidated statements of operations. Statements of operations of foreign operations are translated from the entity’s functional currency to United States dollar equivalents at average rates for the period. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses resulting from settlement of foreign receivables and payables, including certain cross-currency intercompany activities where payment is expected to be satisfied in the normal course of business, are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations. Other cross-currency intercompany activities, where management has no intent to require payment in the foreseeable future, are recorded in shareholders’ equity as a component of other comprehensive income (loss).

 

Comprehensive Income (Loss)

 

The components of comprehensive income (loss) include net income (loss), foreign currency translation gains (losses) and unrealized gains (losses) on available-for-sale securities, net of tax, if applicable. Comprehensive income (loss) is presented in the consolidated statements of shareholders’ equity.

 

Advertising

 

The Company expenses advertising costs in the period incurred. Advertising expense is classified as a component of selling and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. Advertising expense included in selling and administrative expense for fiscal years 2005, 2004, and 2003 were $3,741, $878, and $1,051, respectively.

 

Income Taxes

 

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit

 

54

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

(In thousands, except share and per share data)

 

carryforwards for each jurisdiction in which the Company operates. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. The Company provides a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets based on an assessment of whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Earnings of foreign operations are currently considered to be permanently reinvested in the business and, therefore, no provision for domestic income tax or foreign withholding tax is made on such earnings.

 

Product Warranty

 

The Company warrants its products against defects in materials and workmanship, generally for one to five years, depending upon product lines and geographic regions. A provision for estimated future costs related to warranty activities is recorded when the product is shipped, based upon the Company’s historical experience of known product failure rates and historical costs incurred in correcting product failures. In addition, from time to time, the recorded amount is adjusted for specifically identified warranty exposures if unforeseen technical problems arise.

 

Convertible Debt

 

The Company accounts for the issuance of its convertible debt in accordance with SFAS No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” (Statement 133), Statement 133 Implementation Guidance Issue No. B-16, APB No. 14, “Accounting for Convertible Debt and Debt Issued with Stock Purchase Warrants”, Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) No. 00-27, “Application of Issue No. 98-5 to Certain Convertible Instruments” (“EITF No. 00-27”), and EITF No. 98-5, “Accounting for Convertible Securities with Beneficial Conversion Features or Contingently Adjustable Conversion Ratios” (“EITF No. 98-5”). The Company recorded no discount or premium on the notes, which would require amortization over the life of the notes. The Company determined there was no beneficial conversion feature that would require a separate valuation of fair value of the conversion feature. The conversion feature and the call and put features were determined not to be derivatives. Transaction expenses were treated as debt issuance costs in accordance with APB No. 21, “Interest on Receivables and Payables” and are being amortized over the life of the notes.

 

Accounting for Employee Stock Award Plans

 

The Company accounts for employee stock option plans based on the intrinsic value method in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 (APB 25), “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and has adopted the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (Statement 123), as amended by SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation — Transition and Disclosure.”

 

As allowed by Statement 123, the Company chose to continue to account for stock-based compensation using APB 25 and related interpretations. Accordingly, compensation cost for stock options is measured as the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of the Company’s stock at the grant date over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. In December 2004, Statement 123 was revised. The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 123R, “Share Based Payment” (Statement 123R), to require that compensation cost relating to share-based payment transactions be recognized in all financial statements. The Company was required to adopt Statement 123R on June 25, 2005.

The fair values for stock options granted in fiscal years 2005, 2004, and 2003 were estimated at the dates of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions:

 

     Fiscal Year Ended

Expected stock price volatility factor

   79.3    91.5    92.9

Weighted average expected life of stock options

   4 years    4 years    4 years

 

The per share weighted-average fair values of stock options granted during fiscal years 2005, 2004, and 2003 were $5.31, $5.85 and $2.46, respectively.

 

The fair value of stock options included in the pro forma amounts for fiscal years 2005, 2004, and 2003 is not necessarily indicative of future effects on net income (loss) and net income (loss) per share.

 

Accounting Pronouncements

 

In March 2005, the FASB published FASB Interpretation No. 47, “Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations” (FIN 47), which will result in (a) more consistent recognition of liabilities relating to asset retirement obligations, (b) more information about expected future cash outflows associated with those obligations, and (c) more information about investments in long-lived assets because additional asset retirement costs will be recognized as part of the carrying amounts of the assets. FIN 47 clarifies that the term conditional

 

56

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

(In thousands, except share and per share data)

 

asset retirement obligation as used in SFAS No. 143, “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations”, refers to a legal obligation to perform an asset retirement activity in which the time and (or) method of settlement is conditional on a future event that may or may not be within the control of the entity. The obligation to perform the asset retirement activity is unconditional even though uncertainty exists about the timing and (or) method of settlement. Uncertainty about the time and (or) method of settlement of a conditional asset retirement obligation should be factored into the measurement of the liability when sufficient information exists. FIN 47 also clarifies when an entity would have sufficient information to reasonably estimate the fair value of an asset retirement obligation. FIN 47 is effective no later than the end of fiscal years ending after December 15, 2005. Retrospective application of interim financial information is permitted but is not required. Early adoption of FIN 47 is encouraged. As FIN 47 was recently issued, the Company has not determined whether it will adopt FIN 47 early but does not expect the adoption to have a significant adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations.

 

In December 2004, the FASB issued Statement 123R. Statement 123R is a revision of Statement 123 and supersedes APB 25 and its related implementation guidance. Statement 123R focuses primarily on accounting for transactions in which an entity obtains employee services in share-based payment transactions. Statement 123R requires entities to recognize compensation cost for awards of equity instruments to employees based on the grant-date fair value of those awards (with limited exceptions). Statement 123R is effective for the Company in the first annual reporting period that begins after June 15, 2005.

 

The Company was required to adopt Statement 123R on June 25, 2005, using the modified prospective application method of Statement 123R. Under the modified prospective application method, awards that are granted, modified or settled after the date of adoption will be measured and accounted for in accordance with Statement 123R. Unvested equity-classified awards that were granted prior to the effective date would continue to be accounted for in accordance with Statement 123 except that amounts must be recognized in the income statement. Adoption of Statement 123R will not affect the Company’s cash flows, but it will reduce reported income and earnings per share because the Company currently uses the intrinsic value method as permitted by APB 25. Accordingly, for fiscal year 2005 and prior periods, no compensation cost was currently recognized for share purchase rights granted under the Company’s employee stock option plans. The adoption of Statement 123R will result in the Company recording compensation cost for employee stock options. Had the Company expensed employee stock options under Statement 123 in prior periods the impact of that standard would have been as described in the disclosure of pro forma net income (loss) and net income (loss) per share in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements. Changes in assumptions under Statement 123R could impact compensation costs in the future.

 

In November 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 151, “Inventory Costs, an Amendment of ARB No. 43 Chapter 4” (Statement 151). Statement 151 requires that items such as idle facility expense, excessive spoilage, double freight, and rehandling be recognized as current-period charges rather than being included in inventory regardless of whether the costs meet the criterion of abnormal as defined in ARB 43. Statement 151 is applicable for inventory costs incurred during fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. The Company adopted Statement 151 on June 25, 2005 and does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operation.

 

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 153, “Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets, an Amendment of APB Opinion No. 29” (Statement 153). Statement 153 is based on the principle that exchanges of nonmonetary assets should be measured based on the fair value of the assets exchanged. This statement amends APB 29 to eliminate the exception for nonmonetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replaces it with a general exception for exchanges of nonmonetary assets that do not have commercial substance. A nonmonetary exchange

has commercial substance if the future cash flows of the entity are expected to change significantly as a result of the exchange. Statement 153 is effective for nonmonetary exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005. The Company adopted Statement 153 on June 25, 2005 and does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

 

Note 3.    Business Combinations

 

Fiscal Year 2005

 

In fiscal year 2005, the Company completed three acquisitions:

 

Stargus, Inc.:

 

On July 16, 2004, the Company acquired all the outstanding securities of Stargus, Inc. (Stargus), a privately held company headquartered in Andover, Massachusetts. Stargus is a provider of comprehensive network and service management solutions for cable broadband operators. Stargus became part of the Company’s C-COR Solutions segment. The purchase price for the acquisition was $17,185, consisting of a cash payment of $17,000 and direct transaction costs of $185.

 

The effective date of the acquisition was July 16, 2004. Accordingly, the results of the operations of Stargus are included in the consolidated financial statements from July 16, 2004. On an unaudited pro forma basis, the effect of the acquisition was not significant to the Company’s results of operations. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase and the excess of the purchase price and related costs over the fair value of the acquired net assets of the business was recorded as goodwill. The Company recorded goodwill of $15,569 in the acquisition. None of the goodwill related to Stargus is expected to be deductible for tax purposes; however, the Company acquired the historical net operating losses and unused business credits of Stargus, subject to certain limitations.

 

Intangible assets acquired in the acquisition included $1,800 for completed technology and $150 for customer relationships, which are being amortized over their useful lives of three years. In addition, one of the acquired intangible assets was in-process research and development, representing research and development projects that were commenced but not yet completed at the date of acquisition, and which, if unsuccessful, have no alternative future use in the Company’s research and development activities or otherwise. The fair value allocated to in-process research and development as of the acquisition date was $200 based on a third-party valuation. The amount allocated to in-process research and development was charged to expense during the first quarter of fiscal year 2005.

 

Optinel Systems, Inc.:

 

On September 3, 2004, the Company acquired certain assets and liabilities of Optinel Systems, Inc. (Optinel), a privately held company located in Elkridge, Maryland. Optinel is a provider of optical Ethernet transport solutions for residential and business services. Optinel became part of the Company’s C-COR Access and Transport segment. The purchase price for the acquisition was $9,616, consisting of a cash payment of $9,500, subject to certain adjustments, and direct transaction costs of $116. Additional cash payments of up to $6,000 are required to be made to Optinel shareholders if certain sales objectives are achieved within thirteen months from the date of acquisition. Upon satisfaction of this contingency, the additional consideration, if any, will be recorded as additional cost of the acquisition and recorded as goodwill.

The effective date of the acquisition was September 3, 2004. Accordingly, the results of the operations of Optinel are included in the consolidated financial statements from September 3, 2004. On an unaudited pro forma basis, the effect of the acquisition was not significant to the Company’s results of operations. The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase and the excess of the purchase price and related costs over the fair value of the acquired net assets of the business was recorded as goodwill. The Company recorded goodwill of $5,002 in the acquisition, which is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

 

Intangible assets acquired in the acquisition included $1,700 for completed technology and $210 for customer relationships, which are being amortized over their useful lives of five years. In addition, one of the acquired intangible assets was in-process research and development, representing research and development projects that were commenced but not yet completed at the date of acquisition, and which, if unsuccessful, have no alternative future use in the Company’s research and development activities or otherwise. The fair value allocated to in-process research and development as of the acquisition date was $1,650 based on a third-party valuation. The amount allocated to in-process research and development was charged to expense during the first quarter of fiscal year 2005.

 

nCUBE Corporation:

 

On December 31, 2004, the Company acquired the business of nCUBE Corporation (nCUBE), a privately held company headquartered in Beaverton, Oregon. nCUBE is a worldwide provider of on-demand media and digital advertising systems. nCUBE became part of the Company’s C-COR Solutions segment. The acquisition of nCUBE adds capabilities to the Company’s existing suite of back office automation tools for network, content, subscriber, and workforce management, as broadband network operators’ transition to an Internet Protocol (IP) packet-based, on demand delivery system. The purchase included a production and engineering facility in Beaverton, Oregon, and a sales and distribution office in the United Kingdom. The assets acquired consist primarily of accounts receivable, inventory, contractual rights and obligations, intellectual property and equipment which were used by nCUBE in its operations.

 

Consideration for the acquisition consisted of 4,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, $35,000 principal amount of the Company’s 3.5% senior unsecured 5-year convertible notes, $20,000 in cash, and the assumption of certain liabilities. The Company recorded estimated direct costs for the acquisition of approximately $965. The common stock portion of the purchase consideration was based upon the Company’s average common stock price over a period which included two days before and after the measurement date, which was October 22, 2004. Based upon the average common stock price, the aggregate purchase consideration was $88,554, excluding certain liabilities assumed. The purchase price was subject to a post-closing adjustment for working capital, as well as the transfer of the shares of the United Kingdom operation to the Company, which occurred in March 2005. The cash component of the consideration was funded from the Company’s existing operating cash balances.

Fiscal Year 2004

 

In fiscal year 2004, the Company acquired certain assets and liabilities of the following companies:

 

  Ÿ   On May 27, 2004, the Company acquired certain assets and liabilities of Alopa Networks, Inc. (Alopa), a provider of infrastructure software solutions for end-to-end activation, management, and assurance of digital services over cable. The Alopa assets became part of the Company’s C-COR Solutions segment.

 

  Ÿ   On May 28, 2004, the Company acquired certain assets and liabilities of Lantern Communications, Inc. (Lantern), a provider of Metropolitan Area Network packet-based transport solutions, which incorporate advanced bandwidth management and switching capabilities for the delivery of services such as voice, video, and data over a packet-based infrastructure. The Lantern assets became part of the Company’s C-COR Access and Transport segment.

 

The total consideration for those acquisitions was $34,365, consisting of cash payments of $32,965, direct transaction costs and expenses of $460, and the assumption of Lantern stock options to purchase 119,920 shares of the Company’s common stock having a fair market value of $940, calculated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The stock options assumed included both vested and unvested stock options. The unvested stock options require future employee service after the acquisition date to vest, and as such, $516 was allocated to unearned compensation based on their intrinsic value as of the acquisition date. Such cost is being recognized over the remaining vesting period. The remaining unearned compensation at June 24, 2005 was $161.

 

The acquisitions resulted in goodwill being recorded of $21,400, consisting of $11,538 related to Alopa and $9,862 related to Lantern, of which $11,528 and $9,348, respectively, is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

 

Intangible assets acquired in the acquisitions which are subject to amortization included $8,100 for completed technology, $250 for customer relationships, and $860 for covenants not-to-compete. In addition, one of the acquired intangible assets was in-process research and development, representing research and development projects that were commenced but not yet completed at the date of the acquisition, and which if unsuccessful, have no alternative future use in research and development activities or otherwise. The fair value allocated to in-process research and development as of the acquisition date was $900 based on a third-party valuation. The amount allocated to in-process research and development was charged to expense as an acquired in-process technology charge in the consolidated statement of operations for the fiscal year ended June 25, 2004.

 

The acquisitions were accounted for as purchases, and accordingly, their results of operations have been included in the consolidated statements since their respective dates of acquisition. On an unaudited pro forma basis, the effects of the acquisitions were not significant to the Company’s results of operations.

 

Intangible Assets with Definite Lives resulting from Acquisitions:

 

As of June 24, 2005, the net book value of intangible assets with definite useful lives resulting from all of the Company’s business combinations was $14,714. These intangible assets are being amortized over their estimated useful lives of two to five years. The weighted average life remaining on these intangible assets is 27 months. For additional information concerning goodwill and other intangible assets, see Note 9.

Note 4.    Restructuring

 

In fiscal year 2005, the Company implemented restructuring initiatives to improve the Company’s operating performance and eliminate redundancies resulting from acquisitions, which included settlement of certain contractual obligations related to closing the Company’s Pleasanton, California location, as well as employee severance and termination benefits associated with transitioning the Company’s manufacturing operation in Klagenfurt, Austria to a contract manufacturer in the region. For the fiscal year 2005, the Company recorded $993 of restructuring charges, representing employee termination benefits for 74 employees and contractual lease obligations.

 

In fiscal year 2004, an adjustment of $272 was made to reduce the Company’s restructuring accrual balance for changes in assumptions and cash recoveries.

 

In fiscal year 2003, the Company announced the closing of its Manlius, New York manufacturing facility and its Louviers, France engineering and support operations facility. The decision to close the operations was a result of a process the Company undertook to address redundancy in the product lines, engineering support services and manufacturing capacity resulting from its acquisition of certain assets and liabilities of Philips Broadband Networks (PBN). The Company ceased operations at each of these facilities as of June 27, 2003. In fiscal year 2003, fair value adjustments for property, plant, and equipment of $655 and exit costs of $7,483, which included employee severance and termination benefits for approximately 370 employees, relocation for employees offered transfers, and other lease commitment costs, were accounted for as an adjustment to the allocation of the original purchase price, and recorded as additional goodwill.

 

In fiscal year 2003, the Company recorded $935 of restructuring charges related to initiatives to improve its operating performance by aligning the cost structure across the Company with current business levels. The restructuring charge represented employee termination benefits for approximately 170 employees and lease commitment costs. Also, the Company recorded a reversal of $475 for previously recorded restructuring charges, resulting in a net restructuring charge during fiscal year 2003 of $460.

 

The following tables provide detail on the activity and remaining restructuring accrual balance by category for fiscal years 2005, 2004, and 2003.

Note 5.    Sale of Bankruptcy Trade Claims

 

The Company filed unsecured claims in the bankruptcy cases of Adelphia Communications (Adelphia) and affiliates related to accounts receivable which were previously written-off in fiscal year 2002. On October 30, 2003, the Company entered into an agreement to sell substantially all of its pre-petition trade claims against Adelphia and its affiliates. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company received $21,075 on November 4, 2003 in an initial cash payment, with additional amounts being held in escrow pending the resolution of certain contingencies. Upon resolution of these contingencies, the Company anticipates it could receive an additional approximately $10,000. The $21,075 was recorded as a component of other income in the consolidated statements of operations in fiscal year 2004.

The Company’s investments in municipal securities which are classified above as due in greater than ten years have a put option which enables the Company to put back the securities to the issuer for full principal and any accrued interest with seven days’ notice.

 

The Company periodically reviews its investment securities classified as available-for-sale for potential impairment and records impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 115, “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities.” This includes a review of the fair value of each investment security in relation to its book value, the current grade of the security, and other significant events. Based on management’s review, no investment securities were determined to be other than temporarily impaired and, as a result, no impairment charges were recorded in fiscal year 2005.

 

The following table shows the gross unrealized losses and fair values of the Company’s investments in individual securities that have been in a continuous unrealized loss position deemed to be temporary for less than 12 months, aggregated by investment category, at June 24, 2005.

Note 9.    Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

 

The Company adopted the provisions of Statement 142 effective June 29, 2002. As of the date of adoption, the Company had unamortized goodwill of $7,246 and unamortized identifiable intangible assets of $1,597 that were subject to the transition provisions of Statement 142. For purposes of applying Statement 142, management believes the Company’s operating segments (C-COR Access and Transport, C-COR Network Services and C-COR Solutions) represent the Company’s reporting units, although there was no goodwill or intangible assets associated with C-COR Solutions as of the date of adoption. The Company determined the carrying value of each reporting unit by assigning the assets and liabilities, including the existing goodwill and intangible assets, to those reporting units as of the date of adoption. The Company then determined the fair value of each reporting unit. The fair value was determined based on an independent third party appraisal, using a discounted cash flow model. As a result of this evaluation, the Company did not have an impairment of goodwill as of June 29, 2002.

 

The Company is required to reevaluate whether goodwill is impaired on at least an annual basis. The Company has selected the end of its third fiscal quarter of each year to reassess the value of its reporting units and related goodwill balances. An assessment would also be performed at other times if events have occurred or circumstances exist that indicate the carrying amount of goodwill may not be recoverable. In fiscal year 2003, the Company determined that the carrying value of the C-COR Access and Transport reporting unit exceeded its fair

value, which was determined from an independent third-party appraisal, and as such, an impairment charge of $46,051 was recorded in fiscal year 2003. The decline in the fair value of the C-COR Access and Transport reporting unit was attributable to the weakness in capital spending by cable operators.

 

During the third quarter of fiscal year 2005, the Company performed its annual evaluation of goodwill using a discounted cash flow model. The Company determined there was no impairment. Goodwill was $131,963 and $38,312 as of June 24, 2005 and June 25, 2004, respectively. As of June 24, 2005 and June 25, 2004, goodwill was allocated by segment as follows:

Note 11.    Financing Agreement

 

On November 5, 2004, the Company entered into a credit agreement (the “Agreement”) with a bank for a $10,000 revolving letter of credit facility. Under the Agreement, the $10,000 may be used solely for the issuance of letters of credit which must be fully cash collateralized at the time of issuance. The Company is required to maintain with the bank cash collateral of 102% of the amount that can be drawn on the issued letters of credit. This collateral can be drawn on upon the occurrence of any event of default under the Agreement. The Agreement contains standard event of default provisions, but no financial covenants. The Agreement is committed through November 4, 2005. The applicable margin under the Agreement is 0.65%, payable quarterly in arrears. In the event that a letter of credit is drawn upon, the interest rate for any unreimbursed drawing is the bank’s floating prime rate.

 

As of June 24, 2005, the aggregate amount of letters of credit issued under the Agreement was $3,009. A cash compensating balance of $3,088 (includes interest earned on account) is maintained to secure the letters of credit. The cash compensating balance is classified as part of restricted cash on the consolidated balance sheet.

Note 12.    Long-Term Debt

 

On December 31, 2004, the Company issued $35,000 of its 3.5% senior unsecured convertible notes (the “Notes”) due on December 31, 2009 in a private placement as part of the consideration for the nCUBE acquisition. The Notes are unsecured senior obligations of the Company, equal in right of payment to all of the Company’s existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness and senior in right of payment to any of the Company’s future subordinated indebtedness. In addition, the Notes are effectively subordinated to any of the Company’s existing and future secured indebtedness to the extent of the assets securing such indebtedness and structurally subordinated to the indebtedness and other liabilities of the Company’s subsidiaries. Interest on the Notes is payable semi-annually at the annual rate of 3.5% on June 30 and December 30 beginning June 30, 2005. Each Note may be converted by the holder, at its option, into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion rate of 81.0905 shares per one thousand dollars of principal amount of the Note (as may be adjusted upon the occurrence of certain specified events), for an aggregate of 2,838,000 potential common shares. The Notes are convertible at any time before the close of business on the maturity date, unless the Company has previously repurchased the Notes.

 

In the event of a change of control of the Company, each holder of a Note shall have the right to require the Company to repurchase such holder’s Notes. Upon this repurchase, the holder of the Note shall receive the purchase price, which is set forth in the Notes and varies depending on the date of the repurchase and the Company’s stock price at the time of repurchase, together with any accrued but unpaid interest up to, but not including, the date of the repurchase. On any date on or after December 31, 2007, and prior to maturity, the Notes may be redeemed at the option of the Company, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes, together with any accrued but unpaid interest up to, but not including, the date of redemption.

 

The Notes are subject to customary events of default, the occurrence of which could lead to an acceleration of the Company’s obligations thereunder. The events of default under the Indenture include default on the payment of interest or principal on the Notes, the Company’s failure to convert the Notes upon exercise, the Company’s failure to provide notice to holders of the Notes upon a change of control and the acceleration of the maturity of indebtedness of the Company or its subsidiaries in an aggregate amount of $20,000 or more that is not rescinded, stayed, or annulled within 30 days after written notice of default is provided by the lender of such indebtedness.

 

The Notes are classified as a long-term debt on the consolidated balance sheets as of June 24, 2005. The Company incurred debt issuance costs of $37 as of June 24, 2005, which are being amortized to earnings on a straight-line basis over the life of the Notes. The principal balance of the Notes at June 24, 2005 and June 25, 2004 was $34,992 and $0, respectively.

 

The Company obtained $1,952 of funding through the Pennsylvania Industrial Development Authority (PIDA) for 40% of the cost of the expansion of the Company’s facility in State College, Pennsylvania. The PIDA borrowing has an interest rate of 2%. Monthly payments of principal and interest of $13 are required through 2010. Certain property, plant, and equipment collateralize the borrowing. The principal balance at June 24, 2005 and June 25, 2004, was $762 and $896, respectively.

The Company has a shareholder rights plan intended to preserve the long-term value of the Company for its shareholders by discouraging a hostile takeover. Under the shareholder rights plan, each outstanding share of the Company’s common stock has an associated preferred share purchase right. The rights are exercisable only if a person or group acquires 20% or more of the Company’s outstanding common stock. If the rights became exercisable, the rights would allow their holders (other than the acquiring person or group) to purchase one one-hundredth of a share of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock (Preferred Stock), no par value per share, of the Company at a price of $150.00 per one one-hundredth of a share of Preferred Stock, subject to adjustment. The dilutive effect of the rights on the acquiring person or group is intended to encourage such person or group to negotiate with the Company’s Board of Directors.

 

Follow-On Offering:

 

On February 26, 2004, the Company sold in a public offering 5,060,000 shares of its common stock at a price of $14.50 per share. The offering resulted in net proceeds (after deducting issuance costs) to the Company of $69,482 in fiscal year 2004.

 

Treasury Stock:

 

At June 24, 2005 and June 25, 2004, 3,595,036 shares of common stock are being held by the Company as treasury stock and are available to be used in meeting the Company’s obligations under its present and future stock option plans and for other corporate purposes. In addition, shares of the Company’s common stock purchased under a non-qualified deferred compensation arrangement, held in a Rabbi Trust, have been presented in a manner similar to treasury stock. As of June 24, 2005 and June 25, 2004, 50,680 shares and 50,814 shares, respectively, were held in the Rabbi Trust.

 

Net Income (Loss) Per Share:

 

Basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and potential common shares outstanding. Potential common shares result from the assumed exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants having a dilutive

effect calculated under the treasury stock method using the average market price for the period and from the potential conversion of the Company’s 3.5% senior unsecured convertible notes, calculated under the if-converted method. In addition, in computing the dilutive effect of the convertible notes, the net income (loss) is adjusted to add back the after-tax amount of interest and amortized debt issuance costs recognized in the period associated with our convertible notes. Any potential shares that are antidilutive are excluded from the effect of dilutive securities.

Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income:

 

SFAS No. 130, “Reporting Comprehensive Income,” requires net unrealized investment gains or losses on the Company’s available-for-sale securities and net foreign exchange gains or losses on translation to be included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in the consolidated balance sheet and in the disclosure of comprehensive income. The totals of other comprehensive income (loss) items and comprehensive income (loss), which includes net income (loss), are separately set forth in the consolidated statements of shareholders’ equity.

Note 14. Stock Award Plans

 

The Company has an Incentive Plan (the Incentive Plan), which provides for several types of equity-based incentive compensation awards. Awards, when made, may be in the form of stock options, restricted shares, performance shares and performance units. Stock options granted to employees and directors are at a price not less than 100% of the fair market value of such shares on the date of grant. Stock options granted to employees generally begin vesting in cumulative annual installments of 25% per year beginning one year after the date of grant. Options granted to non-employee directors are exercisable one year after grant.

 

During fiscal years 2004 and 2003, the Company recorded compensation expense of $131 and $104, respectively, related to an equity-based compensation award contingent upon meeting certain performance objectives that was awarded to an officer of the Company pursuant to the Incentive Plan. The stock option award was earned based upon the achievement of certain performance criteria.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements—(Continued)

(In thousands, except share and per share data)

 

The Company’s previous stock option plans provided for the grant of options to employees with an exercise price per share of at least the fair market value of such shares on the date prior to grant and to directors with an exercise price equal to the fair market value on the date of grant. Stock options granted to certain employees vest in cumulative annual installments of either 20% or 25% per year beginning one year after the date of grant. Options granted to non-employee directors were exercisable one year after grant. Certain options held by the former Chairman were exercisable immediately.

 

In connection with the acquisition of Lantern, outstanding incentive and nonqualified stock options to acquire Lantern common stock were converted into stock options to acquire the Company’s common stock. The incentive and nonqualified stock options expire upon the earlier of three months after the date of termination of employment or ten years from the date of grant. Awards related to the Lantern plan retained their original vesting schedules.

 

In connection with the acquisition of MobileForce Communications, Inc. (MobileForce), outstanding incentive and nonqualified stock options to acquire MobileForce common stock were converted into stock options to acquire the Company’s common stock. The incentive and nonqualified stock options expire upon the earlier of three months after the date of termination of employment or ten years from the date of grant. The options vested immediately upon assumption by the Company.

 

A summary of the status of the Company’s stock option plans as of June 24, 2005, June 25, 2004, and June 27, 2003, and changes during the fiscal years ended on those dates, is presented below:

Note 15.    Retirement Plans

 

The Company has retirement savings and profit sharing plans that qualify under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. Participation is available to all employees meeting minimum service requirements.

 

The Company has a deferred compensation plan that does not qualify under Section 401 of the Internal Revenue Code, which provides officers and key executives with the opportunity to participate in an unqualified deferred compensation plan. The total of net employee and employer deferrals, which is reflected in other long-term liabilities, was $1,722 and $1,405 at June 24, 2005 and June 25, 2004, respectively.

 

The total expenses for the qualified retirement savings and profit sharing plans and the non-qualified deferred compensation plan were $1,948, $1,646, and $1,560 for fiscal years 2005, 2004, and 2003, respectively.

 

The Company also has a deferred retirement salary plan, which is limited to certain officers. The present value of the estimated future retirement benefit payments is being accrued over the estimated service period from the date of signed agreements with the employees. The accrued balance of this plan, the majority of which is included in other long-term liabilities, was $1,002 and $945 at June 24, 2005 and June 25, 2004, respectively. Total expenses for the deferred retirement salary plan were $140, $56, and $131 for fiscal years 2005, 2004, and 2003, respectively.

In general, deferred tax assets represent future tax benefits to be received when certain expenses previously recognized in the Company’s statement of operations become deductible expenses under applicable income tax laws or net operating loss or tax credit carryforwards are utilized. Accordingly, realization of deferred tax assets is dependent on future taxable income against which these deductions, net operating losses and tax credits can be utilized. In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, the Company considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Historical operating losses, scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies are considered in making this assessment.

 

Management concluded during the third quarter of fiscal year 2003 that a valuation allowance against net deferred tax assets was appropriate, primarily as a result of the cumulative losses during fiscal years 2001, 2002 and 2003, and recorded a valuation allowance as of that date. The Company expects to maintain the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets until it can sustain a level of profitability in the applicable tax jurisdictions that demonstrates its ability to utilize these assets. During fiscal year 2005, income tax benefit was recorded for the reversal of valuation allowances in certain foreign jurisdictions. As of June 24, 2005, a valuation allowance on

substantially all of the deferred tax assets remains, except in certain foreign jurisdictions where the Company is profitable.

 

Subsequently recognized tax benefits relating to the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets as of June 24, 2005 will be allocated as follows:

 

Income tax benefit that would be reported in the consolidated statement of operations

   $ 78,490

Additional paid-in capital

     6,470

Goodwill, or other noncurrent intangible assets of an acquired entity

     11,142
    

Total

   $ 96,102
    

 

At June 24, 2005, the Company had federal net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $106,475, state net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $115,552, and foreign net operating losses of approximately $43,711, which are available to offset future federal, state, and foreign taxable income, if any, and expire at various dates through fiscal year 2025; however, a significant portion of the foreign net operating loss carryforwards ($36,596) have an indefinite carryforward period. In addition, at June 24, 2005, the Company had research and development credit carryovers for federal and state income tax purposes of approximately $3,292 and $575, respectively. The federal credit carryforwards expire through 2025, and the state carryforwards can be carried forward indefinitely. The Company also had a federal alternative minimum tax credit of $839 at June 24, 2005, which has an indefinite carryforward period.

 

Earnings of foreign operations are reinvested in the business and no provision for domestic income tax or foreign withholding tax is made on such earnings until distributed. A deferred tax liability will be recognized for the basis differences and the undistributed earnings of its foreign subsidiaries when the Company is no longer able to demonstrate that it plans to permanently reinvest undistributed earnings. Undistributed earnings were approximately $10,580 at June 24, 2005.

 

Under recent changes in United States tax law, the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 provides, under certain circumstances, for an 85% dividends received deduction for qualified cash dividends received from controlled foreign corporations if the funds are reinvested in the United States. The deduction can result in a much lower rate of United States tax on those earnings than the United States statutory rate of 35%. The Company has not yet completed its evaluation of the effect of the new tax law on its plans for reinvestment or repatriation of foreign earnings; therefore, it is uncertain whether the Company will repatriate these earnings. If foreign earnings were repatriated, the effect would likely be to reduce the Company’s United States net operating loss carryforwards and corresponding valuation allowance, provide foreign tax credit carryforwards that would be offset with a valuation allowance and, to the extent the dividends were subject to withholding tax in the foreign jurisdiction, result in additional foreign tax expense. The range of these income tax effects has not been determined. The Company expects to complete its evaluation during fiscal year 2006.

 

Cash paid (recovered) for income taxes was $1,191, $1,423, and $(9,728) in fiscal years 2005, 2004, and 2003, respectively.

Note 18.    Concentration of Credit Risk

 

Financial instruments that subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of accounts receivable. The Company’s accounts receivable are derived primarily from sales to cable operators, broadcasters, and other network operators and distributors. The Company performs periodic credit evaluations of its customers’ financial conditions and generally does not require collateral. Receivables are generally due within 30 days. Credit losses are provided for in the consolidated financial statements.

 

Sales to two customers were $42,055 (18%) and $32,050 (14%), respectively, of consolidated total net sales in fiscal year 2005. Sales to two customers were $48,659 (20%) and $39,724 (16%), respectively, of consolidated total net sales in fiscal year 2004. Sales to two customers were $38,348 (19%) and $33,404 (17%), respectively, of consolidated total net sales in fiscal year 2003. All of these principal customers purchase both products and services. No other customers represented greater than 10% of sales in fiscal years 2005, 2004, or 2003.

 

Recently, Adelphia agreed to be acquired by Time Warner Cable and Comcast Corporation and closing of that transaction is expected to occur in the first half of 2006.

 

Note 19.    Commitments and Contingencies

 

The Company was notified on May 26, 2004, by Adelphia Debtors, through their legal counsel, of their claim that various payments made to the Company by Adelphia within ninety days preceding the Adelphia Debtors’ bankruptcy filings, totaling $3,429, constitute transfers avoidable pursuant to the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code. No suit has yet been commenced to recover these transfers, and the Company has entered into an agreement with the Adelphia Debtors extending the deadline by which a suit to recover the transfers must be filed. If a suit is ultimately filed, it is the Company’s intention to vigorously defend the suit, however; we cannot predict at this time the likelihood of successfully defending these claims.

 

In May 2005, the Company transitioned its manufacturing operations in Klagenfurt, Austria to a contract manufacturer in the region. As part of the terms of the transfer, the Company has a minimum two-year purchase commitment of equipment of 6,000 euros per year.

 

The Company leases real property and other equipment under operating leases. Certain leases are renewable and provide for the payment of real estate taxes and other occupancy expenses. At June 24, 2005, the future minimum lease payments for noncancelable leases with remaining lease terms in excess of one year were as follows:

Note 20.    Guarantees

 

In November 2002, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 45, “Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others” (FIN 45), which addresses the disclosure to be made by a guarantor in its interim and annual financial statements about its obligations under guarantees. FIN 45 also requires the recognition of a liability by a guarantor at the inception of certain guarantees.

 

As of June 24, 2005, the Company did not have any outstanding guarantees, except for product warranties. The Company warrants its products against defects in materials and workmanship, generally for one-to-five years depending upon product lines and geographic regions. A provision for estimated future costs related to warranty activities is recorded when the product is shipped, based upon historical experience of product failure rates and historical costs incurred in correcting product failures. In addition, from time to time, the recorded amount is adjusted for specifically identified warranty exposures where unforeseen technical problems arise.

 

Changes in the Company’s warranty liability during fiscal years 2005 and 2004 were as follows:

 

    

June 24,

2005


   

June 25,

2004


 

Balance as of beginning of the period

   $ 10,065     $ 14,117

Changes in the liability for pre-existing warranties

Balance as of end of the period

   $ 6,575     $ 10,065  
    


 


 

The Company’s C-COR Solutions segment licenses software to its customers under written agreements. Each agreement contains the relevant terms of the contractual arrangement with the customer and generally includes provisions for indemnifying the customer against losses, expenses, and liabilities from damages that may be awarded against the customer in the event the software is found to infringe upon certain intellectual property rights of a third party. The agreement generally limits the scope of and remedies for such indemnification obligations in a variety of industry-standard respects. The Company has not identified any losses that are probable under these provisions and, accordingly, no liability related to these indemnification provisions has been recorded.

content management systems, including software and hardware, for delivery of video on demand and digital advertising as well as application-oriented software for subscriber activation and retention, network and service assurance, and workforce management.

 

Due to changes in the structure of the Company’s internal organizations affecting the composition of its reportable segments, the Company has restated the segment information for fiscal year 2004 to conform to the current year presentation. The Company has not restated fiscal year 2003 as it is impracticable to do so.

 

The “management approach” required under SFAS No. 131, “Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information,” has been used to present the following segment information. This approach is based upon the way management organizes segments within an enterprise for making operating decisions and assessing performance. Accounting policies used by the segments are the same as those described in Note 2.

 

The following costs and asset categories are not allocated to segments, and are reflected in the table as “unallocated items”:

 

  Ÿ   Corporate selling and administrative expenses and technology oversight functions

 

  Ÿ   Certain restructuring costs

 

  Ÿ   Goodwill and other intangible asset impairment charges

 

  Ÿ   Income tax expense (benefit)

 

  Ÿ   Identifiable assets of cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities and other short-term investments, assets associated with discontinued operations, and certain other long-term corporate assets.

Note 23.    Litigation

 

Certain former security holders and employees of Convergence.com Corporation, a company that was acquired by the Company in fiscal year 2000, filed claims against the Company in March 2001 alleging violations of state securities laws and certain other state law claims related to a stock option plan. The complaint alleged that the damages suffered by the individuals approximated $2,130, which was based on the number of stock options multiplied by the highest price of the Company’s common stock since the acquisition, and did not take into account the exercise price, which the plaintiffs would have had to pay to the Company if the options were exercised. The complaint also asserted claims for treble damages, an undetermined amount of punitive damages and reimbursement of attorney’s fees.

 

On January 23, 2004, the Superior Court of Forsyth County, Georgia, granted the Company’s motion for summary judgment in full, thereby dismissing all claims against the Company. In July 2005, the plaintiffs filed a brief in the Georgia Appeals Court to appeal the decision. The Company’s response to the brief was made in August 2005, with oral arguments scheduled for September 2005. The Company will continue to assert its defenses to these claims and will continue to contest them vigorously; however, it cannot be sure that it will be successful in defending these claims in an appeal of the decision.

 

SeaChange International, Inc. (SeaChange) filed a suit against nCUBE, a business the Company acquired on December 31, 2004. The suit was filed in Federal district court in Delaware on June 13, 2000 for infringement of U.S. Patent No. 5,862,312 entitled Loosely Coupled Mass Storage Computer Cluster (the ‘312 patent). In instituting its infringement claim, SeaChange sought both a permanent injunction and damages in an unspecified amount. The trial began on September 18, 2000 to determine the sole issue of the validity of the ‘312 patent. At the conclusion of the trial on September 25, 2000, the district court entered a judgment that nCUBE infringed the ‘312 patent and that such claims of infringement were not invalid. No monetary damages were awarded. nCUBE appealed the district court’s judgment to the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit. On June 29, 2005, the Federal Circuit Court decided as a matter of law that the Company did not infringe SeaChange’s patent.

 

In the opinion of management, the ultimate resolution of the SeaChange suit (if the decision of the Federal Circuit Court described above is appealed by Seachange) and other routine matters will not have a material effect on the Company’s business, its financial position or results of operations.

 

From time to time, the Company is also a party to litigation and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material effect on the Company’s business, its financial position or its results of operations.

Item 9A.    Controls and Procedures

 

(a)   Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

 

Our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer have evaluated the effectiveness of our “disclosure controls and procedures,” as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) related to our reporting and disclosure obligations as of June 24, 2005, which is the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are sufficient to provide that material information relating to us, including our consolidated subsidiaries, is (a) made known to them by our other employees and the employees of our consolidated subsidiaries, particularly material information related to the period for which this periodic report is being prepared; and (b) recorded, processed, summarized, evaluated, and reported, as applicable, within the time period specified in the rules and forms promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

(b)   Management Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures deteriorates.

 

We, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including David A. Woodle, Chief Executive Officer, and William T. Hanelly, Chief Financial Officer, assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of June 24, 2005. In making this assessment, we used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework.

 

Based on our assessment using those criteria, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of June 24, 2005.

 

We have excluded the operations of nCUBE Corporation from our assessment of internal control over financial reporting as of June 24, 2005, because it was acquired by the Company in a purchase business combination during fiscal year 2005. The nCUBE operation’s total assets (excluding goodwill) and total revenues represented $36.8 million and $12.6 million, respectively, included in the Company’s consolidated financial statement amounts as of and for the year ended June 24, 2005.

 

Our management assessment process and the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 24, 2005 has been audited by KPMG LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report which appears on pages 42-43 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

 

(c)   Changes in Internal Controls

 

There were no changes that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended June 24, 2005 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

EX-10.T 2 dex10t.htm PROFIT INCENTIVE PLAN--EMPLOYEES Profit Incentive Plan--Employees

Exhibit 10.T

 

C-COR Incorporated

PROFIT INCENTIVE PLAN (PIP)

FISCAL YEAR 2006

 

1. Conceptual Basis of the Plan

 

The PIP plan is based upon the achievement of specific corporate financial goals as established on an annual basis by the Board of Directors. The plan allows eligible employees to share in the successes of the company, while balancing the financial needs of the company to re-invest profits in future operations. The main aspects of the plan are:

 

1) Maximum payout (including fringes/taxes) will be 25% of cash flow from operations* during the measurement period.

 

2) A PIP payment pool is funded based on 50% of earned profits above the minimum profit threshold approved by the Board of Directors for FY06. The PIP payment pool is divided into two specific payment types: bonus payments and incentive payments.

 

3) A bonus payment pool will be created beginning at achievement of 80% or greater of corporate financial goals. The corporate goal will be income from operations** as approved by the Board of Directors for FY06. Any payment or participation by employees will be at management discretion with a maximum payment of 15% of an employee’s base pay.

 

4) An incentive payment pool will be created beginning at achievement of 90% or greater of corporate financial goals. The corporate goal will be income from operations** as approved by the Board of Directors for FY06. If a payment is approved, all eligible employees will receive a targeted incentive payment based upon their identified percentage of base wages.

 

2. Participant Eligibility

 

Full-time, active employees and part-time, active employees (working a minimum of 20 hours per week/1040 hours per year) of C-COR, Broadband Management Solutions, LLC, Stargus, Inc., C-COR Electronics Canada Inc., C-COR Solutions Pvt. Ltd. and individuals within subsidiary groups who are specifically identified as key management/ technical leadership are eligible for this program.

 

The following employees are not eligible:

 

    Employees on Sales/Marketing Commission or Incentive Plans

 

    Employees who are provided a specifically identified, alternative incentive bonus

 

    Temporary Agency Employees, Independent Contractors, Co-ops and Interns

 

    Employees paid on a piece rate basis

 

    Employees from non-US operations unless specifically identified above as being eligible

 

3. Definition of base wages

 

Base wages are defined as the total base wages of an employee at the end of each measurement period, not including any special compensation such as the reimbursement of moving expenses, one-time bonuses, or the exercise of stock options or wages paid through disability, workers’ compensation or other third-parties. Base wages do not include overtime, however shift differential will be included in the calculation of base wages when applicable. If an employee does not receive wages from C-COR during the measurement period due to disability, workers’ compensation, FMLA, Military Leave or other circumstances, only wages paid directly by C-COR will be considered to be included for the purposes of calculating an incentive or bonus payment.


New Hires within the Fiscal Year and / or Terminated Employees –

 

An employee is eligible for an Incentive payment if they have worked at least one full fiscal quarter during the measurement period (defined in section 4 below) and are on the payroll at the end of the fiscal measurement period (defined in section 4 below). Employees who are impacted by a reduction-in-force during the measurement period are eligible for a pro-rated incentive payment, if a payment is ultimately approved at the end of the measurement period by the Compensation Committee/Board of Directors, if they have worked at least one full fiscal quarter during the measurement period and agree to sign a general release agreement. The formula for calculating an incentive payment takes into account the pro-rationing of the payment amount to reflect the amount of time the individual was actively employed during the payment period.

 

4. Creation of PIP pool

 

The PIP pool is calculated as 50% of the profit achieved above the minimum established threshold. The Board of Directors approves the minimum threshold for profit for FY06 as a part of the financial plan. The PIP pool is broken into two distinct components: Incentive payments and Bonus Payments. The portion of the PIP pool provided to each of these components is dependent upon the percentage of goal achievement as shown below:

 

Total Goal Achievement %


  

PIP Payment


Less than 80% of goal    0% PIP pool created
80%-89.9% of goal    100% of PIP pool is allocated to Bonus Payments
90-110% of goal   

Total PIP pool is allocated as shown below:

80% of PIP pool is allocated to Incentive Payments

20% of PIP pool is allocated to Bonus Payments

110.1% to 120% of goal    Additional PIP pool above 110% goal achievement is allocated 100% to Bonus Payments

 

Incentive Payments

 

Timing and Measurement Periods: Achievement of financial metrics versus established goals will be reviewed based on two separate measurement periods during FY06. The first review will take place after the completion of the 1st and 2nd quarters of FY06 and the second at the completion of the 3rd and 4th quarters of FY06. Following the audit (or review, in the case of interim financial statements) of the financial statements, the Compensation Committee will review any applicable PIP calculations for potential payment. All decisions made by the Compensation Committee and/or the Board of Directors are final and binding (see Administration section 6 of this document). Any payment approved will be disbursed to all eligible employees as soon as practical following Compensation Committee and/or Board of Directors approval.

 

Measurement Periods:    June 25, 2005 to December 23, 2005
     December 24, 2005 to June 30, 2006


Calculation of Payments:

 

1) Maximum payout (including fringes/taxes) will be 25% of cash flow from operations* during the measurement period. If this results in a reduction of the incentive pool, it will be pro-rated over eligible recipients.

 

2) Payment calculations will be based on Total Goal Achievement % with associated Incentive payments as defined below:

 

Total Goal Achievement %


  

PIP Payment


100% achievement of goal   

Incentive pool is distributed based upon targeted % of employee’s base wages earned during measurement period

5%-24% of base wages dependent upon level of position and pro-rated across eligible salary base.

Less than 90% of goal    0% payment
90-99.9% of goal    Straight-line calculation of multiplier with minimum of 50% at 90% of goal achievement and pro-rated across eligible salary base.
101% to 110% of goal    Straight-line calculation of multiplier with maximum of 150% at 110% of goal achievement and pro-rated across eligible salary base.

 

Bonus Payments

 

Timing and Measurement Periods: Achievement of financial metrics versus established goals will be reviewed on an annual basis at the end of FY06. Following the audit of the financial statements, the Compensation Committee will review any applicable PIP calculations for potential payment. All decisions made by the Compensation Committee and/or the Board of Directors are final and binding (see Administration section 5 of this document). Any payment approved will be disbursed by management on a discretionary basis to identified employees as soon as practical following Compensation Committee and/or Board of Directors approval.

 

Measurement Period:    June 25, 2005 to June 30, 2006

 

Calculation of Payments:

 

1) Maximum payout (including fringes/taxes) will be 25% of cash flow from operations* during the measurement period. Any reduction due to cash flow will reduce the pool available for distribution as bonus payments.

 

2) Maximum discretionary bonus payment will be 15% of employee’s base wages in addition to any applicable Incentive Payment awarded.


5. Administration

 

The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors oversees the Plan. The Compensation Committee and/or its delegate(s) are responsible for administration of the plan.

 

Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Compensation Committee and/or its delegate(s) shall have the sole authority and discretion:

 

  i) to construe and interpret the Plan;

 

  ii) to determine and approve the amount of payments to be made within the Plan guidelines and to refer any exceptions or items requiring further review to the Board of Directors for approval;

 

  iii) to determine and approve the status and rights of any participant or beneficiary to payments under the Plan;

 

  iv) to decide all questions concerning the Plan and to make all other determinations and to take all other steps necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan.

 

All decisions made by the Compensation Committee and/or its delegate(s) or the Board of Directors pursuant to the provisions of the Plan shall be final, conclusive, and binding upon all parties. The Compensation Committee has complete discretion in administering and interpreting the PIP Plan and in granting or denying any payments described within the plan regardless of the financial calculations presented.

 

6. Right to Withhold Taxes

 

The Company shall have the right to withhold such amounts from any payment under this Plan as it determines necessary to fulfill any federal, state, or local wage or compensation withholding requirements.

 

7. Non-Transferability of Rights

 

A participant’s rights and interests under the Plan may not be assigned or transferred in whole or in part either directly or by operation of law or otherwise (except in an event of the participant’s death), including, but not limited to, by way of execution, levy, garnishment, attachment, pledge, bankruptcy or in any other manner, and no such rights or interests of any participant under the Plan shall be subject to any obligation or liability of such participant other than any obligations or liabilities owed by the Participant to the Company.

 

8. No Right to Continued Employment

 

Neither the Plan, nor any compensation payable under the Plan, shall confer upon any participant any right to continuance of employment by the Company or any affiliate of the Company nor shall they interfere in any way with the right of the Company or any affiliate of the Company to terminate any participant’s employment at any time.


9. No Claim Against Assets

 

Nothing in this Plan shall be construed as giving any participant or his or her legal representative, or designated beneficiary, any claim against any specific assets of the Company or any affiliate or as imposing any trustee relationship upon the Company or any affiliate in respect of the participant.

 

The Company shall not be required to segregate any assets in order to provide for the satisfaction of the obligations hereunder. If and to the extent that the participant or his or her legal representative or designated beneficiary acquires a right to receive any payment pursuant to this Plan, such right shall be no greater than the right of an unsecured general creditor of the Company or any affiliate.

 

10. Company’s Books and Records Conclusive

 

The Company’s books and records, and internal accounting procedures, will be conclusive for all purposes under the Plan.

 

11. Amendment or Termination

 

The Company may at any time, terminate or modify or amend the Plan in any respect, at any time prior to payment for the fiscal year. The Compensation Committee may consider all applicable fiscal conditions at the time of payment in making its final determinations of payment or non-payment of PIP funds.

 

12. No Other Agreements or Understandings

 

Except as expressly provided herein, this Plan represents the sole agreement between the Company and participants concerning its subject matter and it supersedes all prior agreements, arrangements, understandings, warranties, representations, and statements between the parties concerning its subject matter.

 

13. Governing Law

 

The Plan and all actions taken pursuant thereto shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Pennsylvania applied without regard to conflict of law principles.

 

* Cash flow from operations will be measured according to GAAP accounting and will exclude one-time income or expenses. Final determination on inclusion or exclusion of items in determining achievement of the financial goals will be at the sole discretion of the Board of Directors upon presentation of the relevant information by the officers of the Company.

 

** Income from operations will be measured according to GAAP accounting and will exclude non-cash items (specifically, stock option expense and amortization of intangible assets) and one-time income or expenses. Final determination on inclusion or exclusion of items in determining achievement of the financial goals will be at the sole discretion of the Board of Directors upon presentation of the relevant information by the officers of the Company.

Base wages are defined as the total base wages of an employee at the end of each measurement period, not including any special compensation such as the reimbursement of moving expenses, one-time bonuses, or the exercise of stock options or wages paid through disability, workers’ compensation or other third-parties. Base wages do not include overtime, however shift differential will be included in the calculation of base wages when applicable. If an employee does not receive wages from C-COR during the measurement period due to disability, workers’ compensation, FMLA, Military Leave or other circumstances, only wages paid directly by C-COR will be considered to be included for the purposes of calculating an incentive or bonus payment.


New Hires within the Fiscal Year and / or Terminated Employees –

 

An employee is eligible for an Incentive payment if they have worked at least one full fiscal quarter during the measurement period (defined in section 4 below) and are on the payroll at the end of the fiscal measurement period (defined in section 4 below). Employees who are impacted by a reduction-in-force during the measurement period are eligible for a pro-rated incentive payment, if a payment is ultimately approved at the end of the measurement period by the Compensation Committee/Board of Directors, if they have worked at least one full fiscal quarter during the measurement period and agree to sign a general release agreement. The formula for calculating an incentive payment takes into account the pro-rationing of the payment amount to reflect the amount of time the individual was actively employed during the payment period.

 

4. Creation of PIP pool

 

The PIP pool for both the Executive and non-Executive PIP is calculated as 50% of the profit achieved above the minimum established threshold. The Board of Directors approves the minimum threshold for profit for FY06 as a part of the financial plan. The PIP pool is broken into two distinct components: Incentive payments and Bonus Payments. The portion of the PIP pool provided to each of these components is dependent upon the percentage of goal achievement as shown below:

 

Total Goal Achievement %


  

PIP Payment


Less than 80% of goal    0% PIP pool created
80%-89.9% of goal    100% of PIP pool is allocated to Bonus Payments
90-110% of goal   

Total PIP pool is allocated as shown below:

80% of PIP pool is allocated to Incentive Payments

20% of PIP pool is allocated to Bonus Payments

110.1% to 120% of goal    Additional PIP pool above 110% goal achievement is allocated 100% to Bonus Payments

 

Incentive Payments

 

Timing and Measurement Periods: Achievement of financial metrics versus established goals will be reviewed on an annual basis at the end of FY06. Following the audit of the financial statements, the Compensation Committee will review any applicable PIP calculations for potential payment. All decisions made by the Compensation Committee and/or the Board of Directors are final and binding (see Administration section 5 of this document). Any payment approved will be disbursed by management on a discretionary basis to identified employees as soon as practical following Compensation Committee and/or Board of Directors approval.

 

Measurement Period:    June 25, 2005 to June 30, 2006


Calculation of Payments:

 

1) Maximum payout (including fringes/taxes) for both the Executive and non-Executive PIP will be 25% of cash flow from operations* during the measurement period. If this results in a reduction of the incentive pool, it will be pro-rated over eligible recipients.

 

2) Payment calculations will be based on Total Goal Achievement % with associated Incentive payments as defined below:

 

Total Goal Achievement %


  

PIP Payment


100% achievement of goal   

Incentive pool is distributed based upon targeted % of employee’s base wages earned during measurement period

32%-75% of base wages dependent upon level of position and pro-rated across eligible salary base.

Less than 90% of goal    0% payment
90-99.9% of goal    Straight-line calculation of multiplier with minimum of 50% at 90% of goal achievement and pro-rated across eligible salary base.
101% to 110% of goal    Straight-line calculation of multiplier with maximum of 150% at 110% of goal achievement and pro-rated across eligible salary base.

 

Bonus Payments

 

Timing and Measurement Periods: Achievement of financial metrics versus established goals will be reviewed on an annual basis at the end of FY06. Following the audit of the financial statements, the Compensation Committee will review any applicable PIP calculations for potential payment. All decisions made by the Compensation Committee and/or the Board of Directors are final and binding (see Administration section 5 of this document). Any payment approved will be disbursed by management on a discretionary basis to identified employees as soon as practical following Compensation Committee and/or Board of Directors approval.

 

Measurement Period:    June 25, 2005 to June 30, 2006

 

Calculation of Payments:

 

1) Maximum payout (including fringes/taxes) for both the Executive and non-Executive PIP will be 25% of cash flow from operations* during the measurement period. Any reduction due to cash flow will reduce the pool available for distribution as bonus payments.

 

2) Maximum discretionary bonus payment will be 15% of employee’s base wages in addition to any applicable Incentive Payment awarded.


5. Administration

 

The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors oversees the Plan. The Compensation Committee and/or its delegate(s) are responsible for administration of the plan.

 

Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Compensation Committee and/or its delegate(s) shall have the sole authority and discretion:

  iii) to determine and approve the status and rights of any participant or beneficiary to payments under the Plan;

 

  iv) to decide all questions concerning the Plan and to make all other determinations and to take all other steps necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan.

 

All decisions made by the Compensation Committee and/or its delegate(s) or the Board of Directors pursuant to the provisions of the Plan shall be final, conclusive, and binding upon all parties. The Compensation Committee has complete discretion in administering and interpreting the PIP Plan and in granting or denying any payments described within the plan regardless of the financial calculations presented.

 

6. Right to Withhold Taxes

 

The Company shall have the right to withhold such amounts from any payment under this Plan as it determines necessary to fulfill any federal, state, or local wage or compensation withholding requirements.

 

7. Non-Transferability of Rights

 

A participant’s rights and interests under the Plan may not be assigned or transferred in whole or in part either directly or by operation of law or otherwise (except in an event of the participant’s death), including, but not limited to, by way of execution, levy, garnishment, attachment, pledge, bankruptcy or in any other manner, and no such rights or interests of any participant under the Plan shall be subject to any obligation or liability of such participant other than any obligations or liabilities owed by the Participant to the Company.

 

8. No Right to Continued Employment

 

Neither the Plan, nor any compensation payable under the Plan, shall confer upon any participant any right to continuance of employment by the Company or any affiliate of the Company nor shall they interfere in any way with the right of the Company or any affiliate of the Company to terminate any participant’s employment at any time.


9. No Claim Against Assets

 

Nothing in this Plan shall be construed as giving any participant or his or her legal representative, or designated beneficiary, any claim against any specific assets of the Company or any affiliate or as imposing any trustee relationship upon the Company or any affiliate in respect of the participant.

 

The Company shall not be required to segregate any assets in order to provide for the satisfaction of the obligations hereunder. If and to the extent that the participant or his or her legal representative or designated beneficiary acquires a right to receive any payment pursuant to this Plan, such right shall be no greater than the right of an unsecured general creditor of the Company or any affiliate.

 

10. Company’s Books and Records Conclusive

 

The Company’s books and records, and internal accounting procedures, will be conclusive for all purposes under the Plan.

The Compensation Committee may consider all applicable fiscal conditions at the time of payment in making its final determinations of payment or non-payment of PIP funds.

13. Governing Law

 

The Plan and all actions taken pursuant thereto shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Pennsylvania applied without regard to conflict of law principles.
