Report of Independent Auditors
The Trustee
Elpida Memory, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Elpida Memory, Inc. and subsidiaries, which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of February 28, 2013 and March 31, 2012, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, stockholder’s equity, redeemable noncontrolling interest and redeemable preferred stock, and cash flows for the eleven months ended February 28, 2013 and the year ended March 31, 2012, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements.
Trustee’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Trustee is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free of material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the 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 involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by trustee, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Elpida Memory, Inc. and subsidiaries at February 28, 2013 and March 31, 2012, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for the eleven months ended February 28, 2013 and the year ended March 31, 2012, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

ELPIDA MEMORY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
(DEBTORS-IN-POSSESSION)
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
February 28, 2013 and March 31 2012
(Yen in millions, except share data)


(1)
Description of Business, Basis of Presentation and Other Relevant Information
(a)
Description of Business and Basis of Presentation
Elpida Memory, Inc. (“Elpida”) was established in December 1999 as a joint venture owned 50% each by NEC Corporation and Hitachi, Ltd. under the Commercial Code of Japan. Its initial public offering was completed on November 15, 2004, in the First Section of the Tokyo Stock Exchange (the “TSE”).
Elpida and its subsidiaries (hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Company”) develop, design, manufacture and sell dynamic random access memory semiconductors (“DRAMs”). The Company’s product portfolio consists of two categories, premier DRAMs (for digital consumer electronics and mobile devices) and computing DRAMs (for servers and personal computers). The Company provides a wide variety of products to leading international electronics companies in Asia, North America and Europe. The Company has manufacturing facilities in Hiroshima (wafer processing) and Akita (packaging and testing). Further, it has sales and marketing support offices in Japan, North America, Europe, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Singapore. In addition to its own manufacturing facilities, Elpida utilizes the foundry services of Rexchip Electronic Corporation (“Rexchip”) and Powerchip Technology Corporation (“PTC”) for the production of DRAMs for the computing market. Rexchip is Elpida’s consolidated subsidiary and PTC owns a 24.06% interest in Rexchip as a noncontrolling interest holder at February 28, 2013.
Elpida and its Japanese subsidiaries maintain their records and prepare their consolidated financial statements in conformity with Japan generally accepted accounting principles, which are different in certain respects as to application and disclosure requirements of generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. The accounts of non-Japanese subsidiaries are based on their accounting records maintained in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles prevailing in the respective countries of domicile. Certain adjustments and reclassifications have been incorporated in the accompanying consolidated financial statements to conform to U.S generally accepted accounting principles. These adjustments include, but are not limited to, those related to the scope of consolidation and the accounting for business combinations, income taxes, goodwill and intangible assets, inventories, leases, stock-based compensation, revenue recognition, post-retirement benefits, depreciation and amortization, derivative instruments, accruals for certain expenses, and liabilities subject to compromise. These adjustments and reclassifications were not recorded in the statutory books of account.
(b)
Reorganization Proceedings
On February 27, 2012 (the “Petition Date”), Elpida and Akita Elpida Memory, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Elpida, (collectively, the “Debtors”) filed voluntary petitions in the Tokyo District Court (the “Court”) to commence corporate reorganization proceedings under the Corporate Reorganization Act (Kaisha Kosei Ho) of Japan (the “Reorganization Act”).
On March 23, 2012, the Court made the order to commence such proceedings and appointed the incumbent President & CEO and an attorney-at-law as trustees. The Debtors are continuing to operate their business as a “debtors-in-possession” under the jurisdiction of the Court and in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Reorganization Act and the orders of the Court. The Court also appointed and ordered an examiner to examine whether a reorganization plan and the related procedures are performed fairly.

ELPIDA MEMORY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
(DEBTORS-IN-POSSESSION)
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)


On March 28, 2012, shares of Elpida were delisted from the TSE.
On July 2, 2012, Micron Technology, Inc. (“Micron”, a company established in the United States of America) and Elpida signed a definitive sponsor agreement whereby Micron would acquire and support Elpida.
On August 21, 2012, Elpida submitted the proposed reorganization plan (the "Plan") to the Court. The Plan prepared by the trustees was based on the assumption that Elpida would receive financial support from Micron in accordance with the sponsorship agreement entered on July 2, 2012 and Elpida would pay the reorganization claims, and maintain and reorganize its business with such support.
On October 31, 2012, the Court made an order to refer the Plan submitted by Elpida to a resolution.
The recognition of the order to approve the Plan under Chapter 15 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code of the United States Bankruptcy Court was the remaining condition to be fulfilled precedent to closing the reorganization under the sponsor agreement with Micron.
On February 28, 2013, the Plan was agreed by the statutorily required majority of creditors and approved by the Court. Under the Plan, Elpida settled all of its outstanding stock options without compensation (excluding treasury shares held by Elpida) and, on the same day, all such stock options were canceled.
On May 27, 2013, Elpida acquired all of its issued and outstanding shares (common shares, Type 1 Preferred Shares and Type 2 Preferred Shares) without compensation (excluding treasury shares held by Elpida) and, on the same day, all such shares which Elpida held were extinguished. As a result, Elpida transferred the balance of its common stock to additional paid-in capital.
Additionally, on May 27, 2013, Elpida issued common shares with the amount of the subscription price per share of 1 Japanese yen and the number of shares of 1 share which was allotted to the trustee. As a result, Elpida increased its common stock by 1 Japanese yen.
Elpida’s subsidiaries that are not included in the Plan continue to operate without the supervision of the Court and are not part of the bankruptcy proceedings.
On June 26, 2013, Elpida obtained the recognition of the order by the United States Bankruptcy Court.
On July 31, 2013, Micron made a cash payment of ¥60,000 to Elpida, in exchange for 100% ownership of Elpida’s equity. As of this date, all material unsatisfied conditions were resolved and the Company was required to apply the fresh start accounting provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 852, Reorganizations. Fresh start accounting requires an allocation of the reorganization value to the reorganized entity’s assets and liabilities pursuant to ASC 805, Business Combinations. The Company anticipates completing the fair value measurements and the allocation of the reorganization value in fiscal year ending August 31, 2014. During August 2013, the Company began the process of measuring and allocating the reorganization value to the assets and liabilities of the Debtors in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement. Consequently, the financial statements of the reorganized Company will change materially in amounts and classifications due to the implementation of the fresh start accounting. Since the issuance date of these financial statements, the Company is evaluating the impact of the change on the consolidated financial statements.

(c)
Tokyo Stock Exchange Delisting Determination
On February 28, 2012, Elpida’s 2nd and 3rd 130% Call Option Attached Unsecured Convertible Bonds with Stock Acquisition Rights were delisted from the TSE in accordance with Rule 921 of the Securities Listing Regulations due to the filing of the petition for the commencement of reorganization proceedings, which led to Elpida’s forfeiture of the benefit of time.
On March 28, 2012, Elpida’s common stock was delisted from the First Section of the TSE in accordance with Rule 601 of the Securities Listing Regulations due to the filing of the petition and commencement of reorganization proceedings.
(d)
Going Concern
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As described above, the Company’s reorganization plan was approved by the Court and the Company has been operating its business with Micron’s support according to the Plan.
(2)
Reorganization Disclosures
(a)
Financial Reporting in Reorganization
The Company has applied ASC 852, effective as of the Petition Date, which is applicable to companies in reorganization proceedings under US bankruptcy law, because reorganization proceedings under the Reorganization Act are similar to those under the US bankruptcy law. While ASC 852 generally does not change the manner in which financial statements are prepared, ASC 852 requires that the financial statements for periods subsequent to the petition filing distinguish transactions and events that are directly associated with the reorganization from the ongoing operations of the business. Revenues, expenses (including professional fees), realized gains and losses, and provisions for losses resulting from the reorganization and restructuring of the business must be reported separately as reorganization items, except for those required to be reported as discontinued operations and extraordinary items, in the consolidated statements of operations. The balance sheet must distinguish pre-petition liabilities subject to compromise from pre-petition liabilities that are not subject to compromise and post-petition liabilities. Liabilities that may be affected by a plan of reorganization must be reported at the amounts expected to be allowed, even if they may be settled for lesser amounts as a result of the reorganization. In addition, cash receipts and payments resulting from the reorganization must be disclosed.
(b)
Condensed Combined Financial Information
The consolidated financial statements of the Company include entities which are not in the reorganization proceedings, the following presents condensed combined financial information of the entities in the reorganization proceedings. The condensed combined financial information has been prepared, in all material aspects, on the same basis as the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

(c)
Liabilities Subject to Compromise
Liabilities subject to compromise represent the estimated amounts expected to be allowed on known or potential claims to be resolved through the reorganization proceedings.
In accordance with ASC 852, substantially all of the Company’s unsecured debt has been classified as liabilities subject to compromise.
Differences between the liability amounts Elpida and Elpida Akita estimated and the claims filed by creditors will be investigated and resolved in connection with the claim resolution process. Elpida will continue to evaluate these liabilities throughout the reorganization proceedings and adjust the amounts as necessary. Such adjustments may be material. In light of the expected number of creditors, the claims resolution process may take considerable time to complete. Accordingly, the ultimate settlement amounts of allowed claims are not presently known.
The following table summarizes the components of liabilities subject to compromise included on the consolidated balance sheet at February 28, 2013 and March 31, 2012:

As noted in Note (1) (b) above, on February 28, 2013, the creditors agreed and the Court approved the Plan. In accordance with the Plan, approximately ¥117,268 of the liabilities subject to compromise were reclassified to their applicable balance sheet accounts such as long-term debt and bonds, accounts payable and obligations under capital leases and will be repaid over 7 years in accordance with payment terms specified in the Plan. Further, the Plan included 66.1% forgiveness of the remaining liabilities subject to compromise in Elpida. This forgiveness was recorded as a gain during the eleven months ended February 28, 2013. The balance of the liabilities subject to compromise at February 28, 2013 represents those remaining claims that are subject to repayment based on future performance of the Company.

Professional fees are expenses incurred directly related to the reorganization and restructuring.
(*3)
Penalties primarily related to certain subsidiary whose stock holder held a put option to sell its stock to Elpida and intended to execute the put option. However, Elpida was unable to honor the contractual obligation because of the commencement of corporate reorganization proceeding. As a result, Elpida was obligated to pay indemnification for the purchase price of the stocks to the holder. The obligation is included in liabilities subject to compromise.

Professional fees are expenses incurred directly related to the reorganization and restructuring.
(*3)
Adjustments of bond issuance costs related to certain debt that has been classified as subject to compromise and previously recorded as an asset to be amortized were fully expensed to adjust related debt amounts to the amounts of the allowed claims.
(*4)
Elpida was obligated to pay penalties for certain debt and lease contracts. In addition, Elpida reimbursed holders of Taiwan Depositary Receipts as a result of filing voluntary petition in Japan.
(3)
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
(a)
Change in Fiscal Year
According to the Reorganization Act, Elpida’s fiscal year end date changed to the day when the Plan was approved by the Court, which is February 28. In addition, as described in the Plan, Elpida’s fiscal year end date will be August 31, hereafter.
(b)
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles 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 consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and such differences may be material to the consolidated financial statements. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the useful lives of fixed assets; allowances for doubtful accounts and sales returns; the valuation of derivatives, deferred tax assets, fixed assets, inventory, investments, and stock options; reserves for employee benefit obligations, income tax uncertainties and other contingencies; and classification

ELPIDA MEMORY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
(DEBTORS-IN-POSSESSION)
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)


and measurement of lease obligations and liabilities subject to compromise.

(c)
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Elpida and its majority owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company has no involvement with variable interest entities. The Company accounts for investments over which it has significant influence but not a controlling financial interest using the equity method of accounting.
(d)
Foreign Currency Translation
Foreign currency transactions are measured at the applicable rates of exchange prevailing at the transaction dates. Assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than Japanese yen are remeasured at the applicable rates of exchange prevailing at the balance sheet date with the resulting gain or loss credited or charged to income.
Elpida’s foreign subsidiaries use the local currencies other than Japanese yen as their functional currencies. Accordingly, assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries are translated into Japanese yen at applicable year-end rates of exchange and all revenue and expense accounts are translated at average rates of exchange during the year. The resulting translation adjustments are accumulated and included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) classified as part of stockholders’ equity.
(e)
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
(f)
Trade Accounts Receivable
Trade accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. Amounts collected on trade accounts receivable are included in net cash provided by operating activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows. Allowance for doubtful trade receivables are determined based on a combination of historical experience, aging analysis, and any specific factors affecting customer accounts. Uncollectible trade accounts receivable are charged-off when legal actions have been taken to collect the receivable, and it becomes clear that an amount smaller than the original receivable will be recovered.
(g)
Inventories
Inventories, except for supplies, are stated at the lower of cost or market, cost being determined using the first-in, first-out method or the average cost method.
The cost of supplies is determined using the first-in, first-out method.
(h)
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue when products are delivered and the customer takes ownership and assumes risk of loss, collection of the relevant receivable is probable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists and the sales price is fixed or determinable.
Taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities are accounted for on a net basis and therefore are excluded from revenues in the consolidated statements of operations.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)



(i)
Investment Securities
Investment securities at February 28, 2013 and March 31, 2012 consist of equity securities. The Company classifies its equity securities that have readily determinable fair values as available-for-sale.
Available-for-sale securities are recorded at fair value. Unrealized holding gains and losses, net of the related tax effect, on available-for-sale securities are excluded from earnings and are reported as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income until realized. Realized gains and losses from the sale of available-for-sale securities are determined on a specific-identification basis.
Decline in the market value of any available-for-sale security below cost that is deemed to be other-than-temporary results in impairment to reduce the carrying amount to fair value. To determine whether impairment is other-than-temporary, the Company considers all available information relevant to the collectability of the security, including past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts when developing estimates of cash flows expected to be collected. Evidence considered in this assessment includes the reasons for the impairment, the severity and duration of the impairment, changes in value subsequent to year-end, forecasted performance of the investee, and the general market condition in the geographic area or industry the investee operates in.
(j)
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
The Company recognizes all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet at their respective fair values. For derivatives designated in hedging relationships, changes in the fair value are either offset through earnings against the change in fair value of the hedged item attributable to the risk being hedged or recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income, to the extent the derivative is effective at offsetting the changes in cash flows being hedged until the hedged item affects earnings.
The Company enters into derivative contracts that it intends to designate as a hedge of an exposure to changes in the fair value of a recognized asset or liability that are attributable to a particular risk (fair value hedge). For hedging relationships, the Company formally documents the hedging relationship and its risk-management objective and strategy for undertaking the hedge, the hedging instrument, the hedged transaction, the nature of the risk being hedged, how the hedging instrument’s effectiveness in offsetting the hedged risk will be assessed prospectively and retrospectively, and a description of the method used to measure ineffectiveness. The Company also formally assesses, both at the inception of the hedging relationship and on an ongoing basis, whether the derivatives that are used in hedging relationships are highly effective in offsetting changes in fair value of hedged transactions. For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as part of a fair value hedging relationship, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative is reported as a component of earnings. Gains and losses on the derivative representing either hedge ineffectiveness or hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness are recognized in earnings.
The Company discontinues hedge accounting prospectively when it determines that the derivative is no longer effective in offsetting changes in fair value attributable to the hedged risk, the derivative expires or is sold, terminated, or exercised, the fair value hedge is dedesignated in accordance with the derecognition criteria for hedge accounting.
In all situations in which hedge accounting is discontinued and the derivative remains outstanding, the Company continues to carry the derivative at its fair value on the balance sheet and recognizes any subsequent changes in its fair value in earnings.

Property, Plant, and Equipment
Property, plant, and equipment are stated at cost. Plant and equipment under capital leases are stated at the present value of minimum lease payments.
Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives of the respective assets:
Building and structures
2 to 56 years
Machinery and equipment
2 to 20 years
Furniture and fixtures
2 to 25 years
Plant and equipment held under capital leases are amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term or estimated useful life of the asset.
Total depreciation for the eleven months ended February 28, 2013 and the year ended March 31, 2012 was ¥73,846 and ¥113,733, respectively.
(l)
Major Maintenance Activities
The Company incurs maintenance costs on its major equipment. Repair and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred.
(m)
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets with finite lives consist primarily of license fees and technologies. License fees are amortized on a straight-line basis over the contractual periods which are principally 2 to 15 years. Certain costs incurred to develop or obtain internal use computer software are capitalized according to ASC Subtopic 350-40, Internal-Use Software, and amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of five years or less.
(n)
Research and Development and Advertising Costs
Research and development and advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development costs amounted to ¥26,803 and ¥42,183 for the eleven months ended February 28, 2013 and the year ended March 31, 2012, respectively. Advertising costs amounted to ¥1 and ¥8 for the eleven months ended February 28, 2013 and the year ended March 31, 2012, respectively.
(o)
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 carryforwards. 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 recognizes the effect of income tax positions only if those positions are more likely than not of being sustained. Recognized income tax positions are measured at the largest amount that is greater than 50% likely of being realized. Changes in recognition or measurement are reflected in the period in which the change in judgment occurs. The Company records interest related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in selling, general, and administrative expenses.

(p)
Stock Option Plan
The Company recognizes the cost of all employee stock options in the consolidated financial statements. Equity-classified awards are measured at the grant date fair value of the award. The Company estimates grant date fair value using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model. Compensation cost for all stock options is recognized using the straight-line attribution method reduced for estimated forfeitures.
(q)
Retirement Benefits
The Company has retirement benefit plans which consist of defined benefit pension plans, lump-sum indemnity plans and defined contribution plans.
The Company records annual amounts relating to its defined benefit plans based on calculations that incorporate various actuarial and other assumptions, including discount rates, mortality, assumed rates of return, compensation increases and turnover rates. The Company reviews its assumptions on an annual basis and makes modifications to the assumptions based on current rates and trends when it is appropriate to do so. The effect of modifications to those assumptions is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income and amortized to net periodic cost over future periods using the corridor method. The Company believes that the assumptions utilized in recording its obligations under its plans are reasonable based on its experience and market conditions.
For the defined contribution plans, the Company recognizes cash contributions as net pension cost.
(r)
Long-Lived Assets
Long-lived assets, such as property, plant, and equipment, and purchased intangible assets subject to amortization, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If circumstances require a long-lived asset or asset group be tested for possible impairment, the Company first compares undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by that asset or asset group to its carrying value. If the carrying value of the long-lived asset or asset group is not recoverable on an undiscounted cash flow basis, impairment is recognized to the extent that the carrying value exceeds its fair value. Fair value is determined through various valuation techniques including discounted cash flow models, quoted market values and third-party independent appraisals, as considered necessary. Assets to be disposed of by sale are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell, and are no longer depreciated.
(s)
Commitments and Contingencies
Liabilities for loss contingencies arising from claims, assessments, litigation, fines, and penalties and other sources are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. Legal costs incurred in connection with loss contingencies are expensed as incurred.

Fair Value Measurements
The Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs to the extent possible. The Company determines fair value based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability in the principal or most advantageous market. When considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, the following fair value hierarchy distinguishes between observable and unobservable inputs, which are categorized in one of the following levels:
Level 1 Inputs:    Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities accessible to the reporting entity at the measurement date.
Level 2 Inputs:    Other than quoted prices included in Level 1 inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
Level 3 Inputs:    Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available, thereby allowing for situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date.
(v)
Product Warranties
The Company generally provides a limited warranty that its products are in compliance with Company specifications existing at the time of delivery. Under the Company’s general terms and conditions of sale, the liability for certain failures of product during a stated warranty period is usually limited to repair or replacement of defective items or return of, or a credit with respect to, amounts paid for such items. The Company accrues product warranty costs which are based primarily on historical experience of actual warranty claims as well as current information on costs for repair or replacement of defective products.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
In June 2011, the FASB issued a new accounting standard on the presentation of comprehensive income. The new standard requires the presentation of comprehensive income, the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. The Company adopted this standard in the eleven months ended February 28, 2013.
The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the accompanying financial statements.

Business and Credit Concentrations
The Company is primarily engaged in a single line of business of designing, manufacturing and sale of DRAMs and therefore the fluctuation of unit volumes and prices in the DRAM market can significantly impact the Company’s business.
For the eleven months ended February 28, 2013, the two largest customers accounted for 24.0% and 13.0% of the Company’s sales, and the largest customer accounted for 11.7% of accounts receivable at February 28, 2013. For the year ended March 31, 2012, the two largest customers accounted for 18.5% and 12.6% of the Company’s sales, and the largest customer accounted for 13.9% of accounts receivable at March 31, 2012.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
The Company has entered into interest rate swap agreements to manage the exposure to interest rate risk associated with its underlying debt and foreign exchange forward contracts to offset the adverse impact of fluctuations in foreign exchange rates on accounts receivable and accounts payable denominated in foreign currencies arising from the Company’s operating activities. Neither the interest rate swap agreements nor the foreign exchange forward contracts are designated as hedging instruments under ASC 815, and changes in fair value of both interest rate swap agreements and foreign exchange forward contracts are recognized in income. The related receivable or payable is included in other current assets or other current liabilities.
The counterparties to the Company’s interest rate swap agreements and foreign exchange forward contracts are major financial institutions. As a normal business risk, the Company is exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the counterparties; however, the Company does not anticipate nonperformance

long-term other payables, which are included in other liabilities.

The estimated fair values of the financial instruments shown in the above table at February 28, 2013 and March 31, 2012 represent the amounts that would be received to sell those assets or that would be paid to transfer those liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants at that date. Those fair value measurements maximize the use of observable inputs. However, in situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date, the fair value measurement reflects the Company’s own judgments about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Those judgments are developed by the Company based on the best information available in the circumstances, including expected cash flows and appropriately risk-adjusted discount rates, available observable and unobservable inputs.
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments:
Cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable, other accounts receivables, short-term borrowings, trade accounts payable, other accounts payables, and accrued income taxes: The carrying amounts, at face value or cost plus accrued interest, approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments.
Investment securities: Equity securities classified as available for sale are measured using quoted market prices at the reporting date multiplied by the quantity held. The fair values of equity securities accounted for under the cost method (nonmarketable equity securities) are determined using methodologies that give consideration to a range of factors, including but not limited to the price at which investments were acquired, the nature of the investments, market conditions, trading values on comparable public securities, current and projected operating performance, and financing transactions subsequent to the acquisition of the investments.
Long-term debts, obligations under capital leases, long-term other payables, straight bonds, and convertible bonds: With respect to the fair value at February 28, 2013 and March 31 2012, since the Company was under the reorganization process, the Company could not enter into similar financing at February 28, 2013 and March 31 2012. As such, it is impractical to obtain a fair value for the long-term borrowings, obligations under capital leases, long-term other payables, straight bonds, and convertible bonds at February 28, 2013 and March 31, 2012.

For the year ended March 31, 2012, the Company classified certain investments in Level 1 as the Company used an unadjusted quoted market price in active markets to value the investment. In addition, the Company classified the assets described above in Level 3 as the Company used unobservable inputs to value the assets when recognizing impairment losses related to the assets. The fair value for the major assets was measured through the replacement cost method and discounted cash flow method. See Note (24) for further details of impairment of long-lived assets.

Equity Method Investments
Investments in an affiliate accounted for under the equity method consist of 39.64% of the common stock of Tera Probe, Inc. (“Tera Probe”), a semiconductor test house. Tera Probe was a consolidated subsidiary until December 16, 2010, on which date Tera Probe became a public company and the Company lost control.
At February 28, 2013, the carrying amount of the investment in Tera Probe was ¥3,226 and the fair value of the investment based on its market price was ¥3,919.
At March 31, 2012, the fair value of the investment decreased to ¥3,172 and the Company evaluated the recoverability of the carrying value of the investment. As a result, the Company determined that there was an other-than-temporary decline in the value of the investment in Tera Probe and recorded an impairment loss of ¥4,029 at March 31, 2012.
(12)
Leases
The Company is obligated under long-term capital lease agreements covering certain facilities and equipment that expire at various dates during the next 11 years. Certain leases contain renewal options for varying periods, and certain leases include options to purchase the leased property at the end of the lease term. Leases generally require the Company to pay for insurance, taxes and maintenance of the property.
The Company entered into long-term agreements to purchase electricity and gas with certain suppliers (see Note (23)). The electricity and gas are generated by co-generation systems and nitrogen gas supply systems owned by the energy suppliers and these systems are built on the Company’s premises to provide the electricity and gas exclusively for the Company. The arrangements are treated as leases, and based on the terms of agreements, the arrangements are accounted for as capital leases.
At February 28, 2013 and March 31, 2012, the gross amount of leased assets and related accumulated amortization recorded under capital leases were as follows:

Asset Retirement Obligations
The Company has asset retirement obligations (AROs) arising from regulatory requirements to perform certain asset retirement activities at the time that certain long-lived assets are disposed of. The liability was initially measured at fair value and subsequently is adjusted for accretion expense and changes in the amount or timing of the estimated cash flows. The corresponding asset retirement costs are capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset and depreciated over the asset’s remaining useful life. The following table presents the activity for the AROs for the eleven months ended February 28, 2013 and the year ended March 31, 2012:

Income Taxes
(a)
Tax Rate Reconciliation
Elpida and its domestic consolidated subsidiaries are subject to corporation tax, inhabitants’ taxes and enterprise tax in Japan, which, in the aggregate, resulted in a statutory tax rate of approximately 38.0% and 40.7% for the eleven months ended February 28, 2013 and year ended March 31, 2012, respectively. Income taxes of the foreign consolidated subsidiaries are based generally on the tax rates applicable in their countries of incorporation.

ELPIDA MEMORY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)



On November 30, 2011, the National Diet of Japan approved laws amending previous income tax laws. Upon the change in the laws, the statutory income tax rate in Japan was changed to approximately 38.0% for fiscal years beginning on or after April 1, 2012, and will be changed to approximately 35.6% for fiscal years beginning on or after April 1, 2015. Thus, the Company and its domestic subsidiaries remeasured deferred tax assets and liabilities as of the enactment date based on the new tax rates to be applied in the fiscal years in which temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect of tax rate changes in Japan did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Significant components of reconciling items between the statutory tax rate and the effective tax rate for the eleven months ended February 28, 2013 and the year ended March 31, 2012 were as follows:

The valuation allowance for deferred tax assets at March 31, 2011 was ¥117,272. The net change in the total valuation allowance was a decrease of ¥6,880 for the eleven months ended February 28, 2013 and an increase of ¥109,250 for the year ended March 31, 2012, respectively. The valuation allowance at February 28, 2013 was primarily related to deferred tax assets associated with net operating loss carryforwards that, in the judgment of management, are not more-likely-than-not to be realized.
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. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible and tax credit carryforwards are utilized. The Company considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities (including the impact of available carryback and carryforward periods), projected future taxable income, and tax-planning strategies in making this assessment. Based upon the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income over the periods in which the deferred tax assets are deductible, the

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)


Company believes it is more-likely-than-not that the Company will realize the benefits of these deductible differences and tax carryforwards, net of the existing valuation allowances at February 28, 2013. The amount of the deferred tax asset considered realizable, however, could be reduced in the near term if estimates of future taxable income during the carryforward period are reduced.

The Company has not recognized a deferred tax liability of approximately ¥896 for the undistributed earnings of its foreign operations that arose for the eleven months ended February 28, 2013 and prior years as the Company considers these earnings to be indefinitely reinvested. At February 28, 2013 and March 31, 2012, the undistributed earnings of these subsidiaries are approximately ¥29,481 and ¥23,581, respectively.
The Company restated certain prior year disclosures here in, to conform to the current year presentation and as a result in management’s view, there was no significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of total unrecognized tax benefits for the eleven months ended February 28, 2013 and the years ended March 31, 2012 was as follows:

At February 28, 2013 and March 31, 2012, the amount of unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, would affect the effective income tax rates is not material.
Although the Company believes its estimates and assumptions of unrecognized tax benefits are reasonable, given the uncertainty regarding when tax authorities will complete their examinations, the items subject to their examinations and the possible outcomes of their examinations, an accurate estimate of significant increases that may occur within the next six months cannot be made at February 28, 2013.
The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and selling, general, and administrative expenses, respectively, in the consolidated statements of operations. Both the amount of interest and penalties in the consolidated balance sheets accrued at February 28, 2013 and March 31, 2012, and the amount of interest and penalties included in income taxes in the consolidated statements of operations for the eleven months ended February 28, 2013 and the year ended March 31, 2012 are not material.
The Company files income tax returns in Japan and various foreign tax jurisdictions. In Japan, the Company is no longer subject to regular income tax examinations by tax authorities for fiscal years prior to the year ended March 31, 2010. In other major foreign tax jurisdictions, including the United States and Taiwan, the Company is no longer subject to income tax examinations by tax authorities for fiscal years prior to the year ended March 31, 2011.

Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest
The noncontrolling stock holders of certain of Elpida’s majority-owned subsidiaries have the right to require Elpida to redeem their shares at the acquisition value. Accordingly, the Company has presented this redeemable noncontrolling interest as a mezzanine item in the consolidated balance sheet.
On October 29, 2012, Elpida settled a portion of redeemable noncontrolling interest for approximately ¥15,000 due to the liquidation of a majority-owned subsidiary that was subject to the redeemable rights.
(17)
Redeemable Preferred Stock
The Company’s Type I and Type II Preferred Stock are redeemable preferred stock and were required to be classified outside of stockholders’ equity as a mezzanine item in the consolidated balance sheet.
Upon the commencement of reorganization proceedings, conversion options, put options and call options attached to the preferred stock became unexercisable. Also, upon the commencement of reorganization proceedings, holders of preferred stock became unable to exercise the right to receive the cumulative preferred stock dividends in arrears (see Note (1), for further explanation of subsequent extinguishment on May 27, 2013).
Elpida Type I Preferred Stock
In August 2009, the Company issued ¥10,000 of Type I non-voting preferred stock with no mandatory redemption clause. A holder of preferred stock is entitled to receive dividends and, upon liquidation and dissolution, is entitled to receive 100% of the acquisition value, plus accrued and unpaid dividends, if any. The preferred stock is convertible into the common shares in a step-by-step manner at any time from May 1, 2011 to July 28, 2016. The initial conversion rate of the preferred stock is approximately 72.6 shares of common shares per ¥100,000 preferred share amount, or approximately ¥1,377 per share. The conversion rate is subject to adjustment if specified distributions of common shares are made or specified stock splits occur, in each case as set forth in the indenture governing the preferred stock. Upon conversion, holders would have obtained common shares of the Company. The Company may repurchase for cash all or a portion of the preferred stock at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the acquisition value, plus accrued and unpaid dividends, if any, on or after September 1, 2009 upon exercise of the call options. The holder also may require the Company to repurchase for cash all or a portion of the preferred stock at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid dividends, if any, on or after April 1, 2012 upon exercise of the put options.

Elpida Type II Preferred Stock
In August 2009, the Company issued ¥20,000 of Type II non-voting preferred stock with no mandatory redemption clause. A holder of preferred stock is entitled to receive dividends and, upon liquidation and dissolution, is entitled to receive 100% of the acquisition value, plus accrued and unpaid dividends, if any. The preferred stock is convertible into the common shares in a step-by-step manner at any time from February 1, 2011 to July 28, 2016. The initial conversion rate of the preferred stock is approximately 82.1 shares of common shares per ¥100,000 preferred share amount, or approximately ¥1,218 per share. The conversion rate is subject to adjustment if specified distributions of common shares are made or specified stock splits occur, in each case as set forth in the indenture governing the preferred stock. Upon conversion, holders would have obtained common shares of the Company. The Company may repurchase for cash all or a portion of the preferred stock at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the acquisition value, plus accrued and unpaid dividend, if any, on or after September 1, 2009 upon exercise of the call options. The holder also may require the Company to repurchase for cash all or a portion of the preferred stock at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid dividends, if any, on or after April 1, 2012 upon exercise of the put options.

Stockholders’ Equity
Holders of common stock are entitled to one vote per share, and to receive dividends and, upon liquidation or dissolution, are entitled to receive all assets available for distribution to stockholders. The holders have no preemptive or other subscription rights and there are no redemption or sinking fund provisions with respect to such shares. Common stock is subordinate to the preferred stock with respect to dividend rights and rights upon liquidation, winding up and dissolution of the Company.
In accordance with the Plan, the shareholders of common stock have no voting rights since Elpida is currently insolvent. All of the issued and outstanding common and preferred stock of Elpida was acquired and cancelled without any compensation on May 27, 2013.

Elpida’s overall expected long-term rate of return on assets is 2.1%. The expected long-term rate of return is based on the portfolio as a whole and not on the sum of the returns on individual asset categories. The return is based exclusively on historical returns, without adjustments.
The following table summarizes employer contributions and benefits paid for the eleven months ended February 28, 2013 and the year ended March 31, 2012:

Elpida’s investment policies are designed to ensure adequate plan assets are available to provide future payments of pension benefits to eligible participants. Elpida evaluates the gap between expected return and actual return of invested plan assets on an annual basis to determine if such differences necessitate a revision in the formulation of the portfolio. Elpida revises the portfolio when and to the extent considered necessary to achieve the expected long-term rate of return on plan assets.
Elpida’s portfolio, except the employee pension trust, consists of three major components: approximately 50% is invested in equity securities, approximately 30% is invested in debt securities, and approximately 20% is invested in other assets such as cash and cash equivalents. At February 28, 2013 and March 31, 2012, there is no significant deviation between the target allocations and actual results.

Legal Proceedings
The Company is involved in various claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate disposition of these matters are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, or liquidity (see Note (1), for legal proceedings related to reorganization).
(24)
Impairment Charge
A variety of external economic factors have contributed to the decline in the Company’s operating performance. The global economic downturn that began in the fall of 2008 has continued to cause demand decreases and price declines of DRAMs, which resulted in significant reductions in the Company’s manufacturing capacity utilization as the Company reduced production. Coupled with additional factors such as the strong yen, competition in the DRAM industry and the flood in Thailand, the Company’s operating performance significantly deteriorated during the year ended March 31, 2012, which led to the voluntary petition filing by Debtors on February 27, 2012.
Given these indicators of impairment during the fourth quarter of 2012, the Company believed its long-lived assets including certain intangible assets may not be recoverable. The estimated undiscounted future cash flows generated by the equipment were less than their carrying values, and the carrying values of the equipment were reduced to fair value. This resulted in a pre-tax charge of ¥228,523 recorded by the Debtors, which was included as a separate line item in the consolidated statements of operations for the year ended March 31, 2012. Management estimated the fair value based on replacement cost method and discounted cash flow method (see Note (10)).

ELPIDA MEMORY, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)


No impairment charges were recorded by the Debtors for the eleven months ended February 28, 2013.
Rexchip had assets to be disposed of other than through sales which had ceased to be used at March 31, 2012. These assets were adjusted to fair value, which was measured based on salvage value, because the assets could not be sold or used for another purpose. This resulted in a pre-tax charge of ¥1,037, which was recorded as a separate line item in the consolidated statements of operations for the year ended March 31, 2012.
No impairment charges were recorded by Rexchip for the eleven months ended February 28, 2013.
(25)
Shipping and Handling Costs
Shipping and handling costs are included in selling, general and administrative expenses. Shipping and handling costs for the eleven months ended February 28, 2013 and the year ended March 31, 2012 were ¥1,015 and ¥1,169, respectively.
(26)
Subsequent Events
The Company has evaluated subsequent events from the balance sheet date through August 29, 2013, the date at which the financial statements were available to be issued, and determined that there are no items to disclose other than those described in other footnotes to the consolidated financial statements.

MICRON TECHNOLOGY, INC.

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements and related notes present the historical financial statements of Micron Technology, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries (hereinafter referred to as "we," "our," "us" and similar terms unless the context indicates otherwise) and Elpida Memory, Inc. ("Elpida") and its subsidiaries (the "Elpida Group") and Elpida's subsidiary Akita Elpida Memory, Inc. ("Akita" and, together with Elpida, the "Elpida Companies") after giving effect to our acquisition of the Elpida Group on July 31, 2013.

On July 31, 2013, we also completed the acquisition of an additional 24% ownership interest in Rexchip Electronics Corporation ("Rexchip"), a Taiwanese corporation and manufacturing joint venture formed by Powerchip Technology Corporation ("Powerchip") and Elpida, from Powerchip and certain of its affiliates (the "Powerchip Group") pursuant to a share purchase agreement. The Elpida Group owns approximately 65% of Rexchip's outstanding common stock. Therefore, as a result of the consummation of our acquisition of the Elpida Group and the Rexchip shares from the Powerchip Group, we own approximately 89% of Rexchip's outstanding common stock.

The acquisitions of the Elpida Group and Rexchip shares are hereinafter referred to as the "Elpida Acquisition." These pro forma financial statements give effect to the Elpida Acquisition based on the assumptions, reclassifications and adjustments described in the accompanying notes to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are based on provisional valuations of assets and liabilities acquired and the consideration paid in the Elpida Acquisition. These provisional amounts could change as additional information becomes available. These changes could result in material variances between the combined entity's future financial results and the amounts presented in these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements, including variances in fair values recorded, as well as expenses associated with these items.

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet is presented as if the effective date of the Elpida Acquisition had occurred on May 30, 2013. All period references are to fiscal periods unless otherwise indicated. The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the nine months ended May 30, 2013 and the year ended August 30, 2012 are presented as if the effective date of the Elpida Acquisition had occurred on September 2, 2011. This information should be read in conjunction with the:
 
accompanying notes to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements;

our audited historical consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended August 30, 2012, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended August 30, 2012;

our unaudited historical consolidated financial statements as of and for the quarter and nine months ended May 30, 2013, included in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended May 30, 2013;

audited historical consolidated financial statements of the Elpida Group as of and for the years ended February 28, 2013 and March 31, 2012 filed as Exhibit 99.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K/A;

audited historical consolidated financial statements of the Elpida Group as of and for the years ended March 31, 2012 and March 31, 2011 furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to our Current Report on Form 8-K filed on February 5, 2013; and
 
unaudited historical consolidated financial statements of the Elpida Group as of and for the six months ended September 30, 2012 furnished as Exhibit 99.2 to our Current Report on Form 8-K filed on February 5, 2013.

We and the Elpida Group had different fiscal years. Accordingly, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of May 30, 2013 combines our historical unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of May 30, 2013 and the Elpida Group's historical unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of February 28, 2013. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the nine months ended May 30, 2013 combines our historical unaudited results for the nine months ended May 30, 2013 and the historical unaudited results of the Elpida Group for the nine months ended February 28, 2013. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the year ended August 30, 2012 combines our historical results for the year ended August 30, 2012 and the historical unaudited results of the Elpida Group for the twelve months ended June 30, 2012.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to represent or be indicative of our consolidated results of operations or financial position that we would have reported had the Elpida Acquisition been completed as of the dates presented, and should not be taken as a representation of our future consolidated results of operations or financial position. Pro forma adjustments are based upon available information and assumptions that we believe are reasonable as described in the notes to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements.
 
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements do not reflect any cost savings, operating synergies or revenue enhancements that the combined company may achieve as a result of the Elpida Acquisition or the costs to integrate the Elpida Group's operations with ours or the costs necessary to achieve any cost savings, operating synergies and revenue enhancements.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(All tabular amounts in millions except per share amounts)


Acquisition of Elpida Memory, Inc.

On July 31, 2013, we completed the acquisition of Elpida, pursuant to the terms and conditions of an Agreement on Support for Reorganization Companies (as amended, the "Sponsor Agreement") that we entered into on July 2, 2012, with the trustees of Elpida and one of its subsidiaries, Akita, pursuant to and in connection with the Elpida Companies’ corporate reorganization proceedings under the Corporate Reorganization Act of Japan. We paid $615 million for the acquisition of Elpida, of which substantially all was deposited into accounts that are legally restricted for payment to the secured and unsecured creditors of the Elpida Companies in October 2013 subject to reduction for certain items specified in the Sponsor Agreement and plans of reorganization. For the purpose of these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements, the amount deposited into the restricted account was presented as restricted cash. Of the $615 million paid at closing, $18 million was applied from amounts we had deposited into an escrow account in July 2012 as a condition to the execution of the Sponsor Agreement.

On July 31, 2013, we also completed the acquisition of an additional 24% ownership interest in Rexchip, a Taiwanese corporation and manufacturing joint venture, from the Powerchip Group pursuant to a share purchase agreement. We paid $334 million in cash for the shares. Elpida owns, directly and indirectly through a subsidiary, approximately 65% of Rexchip’s outstanding common stock. Therefore, as a result of the consummation of our acquisition of Elpida and the Rexchip shares from the Powerchip Group, we own approximately 89% ownership interest in Rexchip.
 
Elpida's assets include, among others: a 300mm DRAM wafer fabrication facility located in Hiroshima, Japan and its approximate 65% ownership interest in Rexchip, whose assets include a 300mm DRAM wafer fabrication facility located in Taiwan; and a 100% ownership interest in Akita, whose assets include an assembly and test facility located in Akita, Japan.

Elpida's semiconductor memory products include Mobile DRAM, targeted toward mobile phones and tablets. We believe that combining the complementary product portfolios of Micron and Elpida will strengthen our position in the memory market and enable us to provide customers with a wider portfolio of high-quality memory solutions. We also believe that our acquisition of Elpida will strengthen our market position in the memory industry through increased research and development and manufacturing scale, improved access to core memory market segments, and additional wafer capacity to balance among our DRAM, NAND Flash and NOR Flash memory solutions.

Elpida Plans of Reorganization and Related Creditor Installment Payments

The Elpida Companies are currently subject to corporate reorganization proceedings under the Corporate Reorganization Act of Japan. Both of the Elpida Companies have adopted plans of reorganization which set forth the treatment of their respective pre-petition creditors and their claims, which plans were approved by the Elpida Companies’ creditors and the Tokyo District Court in February 2013. The plans of reorganization provide for payments by the Elpida Companies to their secured and unsecured creditors in an aggregate amount of 200 billion yen (or the equivalent of approximately $2.04 billion, assuming approximately 98.03 yen per U.S. dollar, the exchange rate as of July 31, 2013), less certain expenses of the reorganization proceedings and certain other items. The reorganization plans provide that payments will be made to creditors in seven installments. The initial installment payment of 60 billion yen, which amount is subject to reduction for certain items specified in the Sponsor Agreement and plans of reorganization, is scheduled to be paid in October 2013 with funds from the legally restricted accounts. The remaining 140 billion yen (or the equivalent of approximately $1.43 billion) of installment payments payable to the Elpida Companies' creditors are scheduled to be made by the Elpida Companies in six annual installments payable at the end of each calendar year beginning in the calendar year after the first installment payments are made. Pursuant to the terms of the Sponsor Agreement, we entered into a series of agreements with the Elpida Companies, including supply agreements, research and development services agreements and general services agreements, which are intended to generate more stable operating cash flows to meet the requirements of the Elpida Companies’ businesses, including the funding of the installment payments to the Elpida Companies’ creditors.

Basis of Pro Forma Presentation

The Elpida Group's historical financial statements are presented in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standard Codification (ASC) 852, Reorganizations, which requires financial statements to distinguish transactions and events that are directly associated with the reorganization from the ongoing operations of the business. The pro forma combined financial statements are presented consistent with our historical financial statements.

In the second quarter of 2013, we reclassified gains and losses from changes in currency exchange rates in order to improve comparability with our industry peers. As a result of the reclassification, $59 million of losses for the first quarter of 2013 and $6 million of losses for the year ended August 30, 2012 were reclassified from the amounts previously reported in other operating (income) expense, net to other non-operating income (expense), net.

Acquisition Accounting

We account for business combinations pursuant to ASC 805, Business Combinations. In accordance with ASC 805, we recognized identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed, at the acquisition date fair value as defined by ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. Under ASC 805, our accounting for the Elpida Acquisition includes our purchase from the Powerchip Group of approximately 24% of the shares of Rexchip because (1) the two transactions were entered into and closed contemporaneously and (2) the Rexchip share purchase was negotiated in contemplation of the Elpida acquisition and its completion was contingent on the closing of the Elpida acquisition.

Accounting Periods Presented

We and the Elpida Group had different fiscal years. All period references are to fiscal periods unless otherwise indicated. The Elpida Group's historical fiscal year ended on February 28, 2013 and March 31 for all other years. For purposes of these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements, the Elpida Group's historical results have been aligned to more closely conform to our year which is the 52 or 53-week period ending on the Thursday closest to August 31. Accordingly, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of May 30, 2013 combines our historical unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of May 30, 2013 and the Elpida Group's historical unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet as of February 28, 2013, which are presented as if our Elpida Acquisition had occurred on May 30, 2013.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the nine months ended May 30, 2013 combines our unaudited historical results for the nine months ended May 30, 2013 and the unaudited historical results of the Elpida Group for the nine months ended February 28, 2013. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the year ended August 30, 2012 combines our historical results for the year ended August 30, 2012 and the historical unaudited results of the Elpida Group for the twelve months ended June 30, 2012. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations are presented as if the Elpida Acquisition had occurred on September 2, 2011.

Currency Translation

All consideration paid for the Elpida Acquisition for the purposes of these pro forma financial statements was translated to U.S. dollars using exchange rates of 98.03 yen per U.S. dollar or 29.96 New Taiwan dollars per U.S. dollar, the rates as of the July 31, 2013 acquisition date. Historical amounts for the Elpida Group were translated from yen to U.S. dollars in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet at an exchange rate of 101.16, the rate as of May 30, 2013

For the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the nine months ended May 30, 2013, historical amounts for the Elpida Group were translated from yen to U.S. dollars at the average exchange rates for those periods ranging from 78.72 to 96.25. For the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the year ended August 30, 2012, historical amounts for the Elpida Group were translated from yen to U.S. dollars at the average quarterly exchange rates, ranging from 77.02 to 81.17.


7



Reclassifications

Reclassifications have been made to the historical Elpida Group financial statements as presented herein in order to conform them to our presentation and include the following:
 
We include software assets as a component of property, plant and equipment, net. As a result, software assets of $16 million, net of accumulated amortization, were reclassified from intangible assets to property, plant and equipment, net.

We include certain liabilities related to equipment purchases separately from accounts payable and accrued expenses. As a result, payables of $13 million were reclassified from accounts payable and accrued expenses to equipment purchase contracts.

The Elpida Group presented amounts previously considered liabilities subject-to-compromise in its February 28, 2013 balance sheet within its pre-bankruptcy liability line items. To present the post-acquisition debt related to the bankruptcy consistent with our presentation, $54 million was reclassified from accounts payable and accrued expenses into current portion of long-term debt. An additional $17 million was reclassified from other noncurrent liabilities to long-term debt.

The Elpida Group included its research and development activities on its statement of operations within selling, general and administrative expense. As a result, $504 million and $252 million of expenses were reclassified to research and development expense to conform with our presentation for the year ended June 30, 2012 and nine months ended February 28, 2013, respectively.

For the Elpida Group's year ended June 30, 2012, other non-operating income (expense) included amounts inconsistent with our presentation. As such, (1) $50 million was reclassified to equity in net income (loss) of equity method investees for the impairment of equity method investments, (2) $43 million was reclassified to interest expense for amortization of loan costs and (3) $35 million was reclassified to other operating (income) expense related to government grant income.

Elpida Acquisition Provisional Consideration and Valuation

The cash consideration paid for the Elpida Acquisition was $949 million which includes $615 million for the acquisition of Elpida and $334 million for the acquisition of the Rexchip shares.

We estimated the provisional fair value of the assets and liabilities of the Elpida Group as of the July 31, 2013 acquisition date using an in-use model, which reflects its value through its use in combination with other assets as a group. These provisional amounts could change as additional information becomes available. These changes could result in material variances between the combined entity's future financial results and the amounts presented in these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements, including variances in fair values recorded, as well as expenses associated with these items. The consideration and provisional valuation of assets acquired and liabilities assumed are as follows:

Assets acquired and liabilities assumed:

$

The amounts in the table above reflect the consideration and provisional fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of July 31, 2013, the acquisition date. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet includes assets and liabilities of the Elpida Group as of February 28, 2013 and fair value adjustments to those balances that are consistent with the fair value adjustments made to the July 31, 2013 balances in acquisition accounting.

Because the fair value of the net assets acquired less noncontrolling interests exceeded the purchase price, we recognized a gain on the acquisition of $1,484 million.  The yen denominated purchase price was fixed on July 2, 2012 when we entered into the Sponsor Agreement. We believe the fair value exceeded the purchase price because of changes in market conditions in the DRAM industry and changes in U.S. dollar to yen exchange rates between July 2, 2012 and July 31, 2013, when we completed the acquisition. These conditions resulted in significant increases in U.S. dollar equivalent net assets of the Elpida Group.

The pro forma information presented is based on provisional estimates for the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on available information. Determination of provisional fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the Elpida Acquisition required significant assumptions, estimates and judgments. Many of the measurements involved significant inputs that are not observable in the market and thus represent a Level 3 measurement as defined in ASC 820.

9



Changes in assumptions, estimates and judgments could significantly impact the asset and liabilities recorded as well as the gain recognized in the acquisition. The valuations involving the most significant assumptions, estimates and judgment included the following:

Property, plant and equipment: Fair value in continued use and remaining useful lives.
Deferred tax assets: Projections of future taxable income and tax rates.
Inventory: Estimated future selling prices including the timing of product sales and completion costs for work in process.
Debt: Discount rate and timing of payments.

The fair value of the noncontrolling interest in the table above primarily relates to Rexchip and was derived based on the purchase price we paid the Powerchip Group for their 24% ownership interest.

To mitigate the risk of the effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on the proposed Elpida Acquisition, we entered into a series of currency exchange contracts to hedge our exposure to yen and New Taiwan Dollar payments (the "Elpida Hedges"). These currency exchange contracts were not designated for hedge accounting and were remeasured at fair value each period with gains and losses recognized in other operating (income) expense. As a result of mark-to-market adjustments for the Elpida hedges, we recorded losses to other non-operating expense of $225 million in the first nine months of 2013. No adjustments were made in these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements for the acquisition related currency exchange hedges.

Pro Forma Financial Statement Adjustments

The following pro forma adjustments are included in our unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements:

a.
Adjustment of $931 million reflects the cash consideration paid for the Elpida Acquisition of $949 million which includes $615 million for the acquisition of Elpida (less $18 million applied from amounts we had deposited into an escrow account in July 2012 as a condition to the execution of the Sponsor Agreement) and $334 million for the acquisition of the Rexchip shares.
b.
Adjustment to inventories of $190 million for the difference between the historical cost and provisional fair value of the Elpida Group's inventory.
c.
Substantially all of the $615 million we paid in connection with the acquisition of Elpida was deposited into accounts that are legally restricted for payment to the secured and unsecured creditors of the Elpida Companies. Adjustment to current restricted cash of $557 million is our provisional estimate of the amounts to be paid within one year of the acquisition. An adjustment to other noncurrent assets of $37 million is our provisional estimate of the restricted cash which will be paid to the creditors of the Elpida Companies after one year.
d.
Adjustment to current and noncurrent deferred tax assets of $103 million and $807 million, respectively, to reflect expected utilization of net operating loss carryforwards, temporary differences between the basis of assets and liabilities for financial reporting and income tax purposes, and certain other de minimis net adjustments to tax liabilities.
e.
Adjustment to the Elpida Group's property, plant and equipment of $2,131 million for the difference between the historical amount and the provisional fair value for buildings, equipment and software with useful lives of 1-30 years, 1-10 years and 2-5 years, respectively. As a result of the adjustment to property, plant and equipment and reassessment of useful lives assigned, adjustments to historical depreciation expense were as follows:

f.
Adjustment to equity method investment for the difference between the historical amount and the provisional fair value of the Elpida Group's equity method investment in Tera Probe, Inc. ("Tera Probe").
 
The difference between our cost of the equity method investment in Tera Probe and our proportionate share of Tera Probe's equity ("Basis Difference") is recognized in earnings over a weighted-average period of 7 years. The adjustment to the pro forma unaudited condensed combined statements of operations includes the amortization of the Basis Difference that would have been recognized for the periods presented.
 
The historical results of operations of the Elpida Group for the year ended June 30, 2012 included a $50 million loss for an other-than-temporary impairment of its investment in Tera Probe.

Adjustment to decrease current portion of long-term debt of $1 million for the difference between the provisional fair value and historical amounts.
k.
Adjustment to decrease other noncurrent liabilities of $2 million for the difference between historical amounts and the provisional fair value.
l.
In accordance with ASC 852, certain of the Elpida Group's liabilities were reflected as liabilities subject to compromise and include pre-petition obligations. The pro forma adjustment reflects the reclassification of the fair value of the amounts subject to compromise to current portion of long-term debt and long-term debt. The fair value of such amounts reflects the present value of the total installment payments and was estimated to be $1,638 million, which is comprised of $525 million and $1,113 million of current long-term debt and non-current long-term debt, respectively.
The historical results of operations of the Elpida Group for the nine months ended February 28, 2013 included a gain of $1,692 million for the forgiveness of debt related to liabilities subject to compromise upon approval of the bankruptcy by the creditors and Tokyo District Court, net of reorganization expenses. No adjustment was made to the pro forma combined statement of operations for this item consistent with the requirements for preparation of pro forma financial statements.
m.
Adjustment for the difference between historical interest expense reported by the Elpida Group and the interest expense from accretion of discount related to the pro forma adjustments noted in j, k and l above.
n.
Adjustment eliminates the historical redeemable preferred stock and shareholders' equity of the Elpida Group. In addition, accumulated deficit includes an adjustment of $492 million for the implied gain on acquisition had the acquisition occurred on February 28, 2013. No adjustment was made to the pro forma combined statement of operations for gain on acquisition which is consistent with the requirements for preparation of pro forma financial statements.
o.
Adjustment decreases the noncontrolling interest in Rexchip by $465 million for the acquisition of approximately 24% of Rexchip's outstanding common stock and the adjustment to fair value of the remaining 11% noncontrolling interest in Rexchip. Net (income) loss attributable to noncontrolling interests was adjusted by $45 million and $108 million for the pro forma unaudited condensed combined statements of operations for the nine months ended May 30, 2013 and the year ended August 30, 2012, respectively.
Adjustment also increases the noncontrolling interest by $14 million for the adjustment to fair value of assets held by EBS, Inc., a consolidated subsidiary of Elpida, attributable to minority interests.
p.

q.
Adjustment to the pro forma unaudited condensed combined balance sheet for the direct external acquisition expenses which were not reflected in the historical financial statements presented of $42 million as of May 30, 2013. No adjustment was made to the pro forma combined statement of operations for these estimated future expenses consistent with the requirements for preparation of pro forma financial statements.
Adjustment eliminates direct external acquisition expenses of $8 million for the nine months ended May 30, 2013 and $16 million for the year ended August 30, 2012.
r.
Due to valuation allowances on net deferred tax assets for both us and the Elpida Group, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated statements of operations do not reflect statutory rate tax adjustments for pro forma adjustments.

Pro Forma Earnings Per Share

The pro forma basic and diluted earnings per share presented in our unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations is computed based on the weighted-average number of common shares and stock rights outstanding.
