NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation
These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted in these interim statements. Accordingly, these condensed consolidated financial statements are to be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended April 2, 2011. These interim statements include all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments and accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of results for the interim periods presented. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the entire year.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of commitments and contingencies at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results may differ from those estimates. Management believes that the estimates used are reasonable. Significant estimates made by management include: revenue recognition; inventory valuation; product warranty reserves; allowance for doubtful accounts; share-based compensation; income taxes including the valuation of deferred tax assets; fair value measurements; valuation of cost method equity investments; and valuation of long-lived assets.
There have been no significant changes to the Companys significant accounting policies from those presented in Note 2 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies to the consolidated financial statements included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended April 2, 2011. All references to years or quarters relate to fiscal years or fiscal quarters unless otherwise noted.
2. Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2011-08, Intangibles Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for Impairment (ASC ASU 2011-08). ASC ASU 2011-08 permits an entity to make a qualitative assessment of whether it is more likely than not that a reporting units fair value is less than its carrying amount before applying the two-step goodwill impairment test. If an entity concludes it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, it need not perform the two-step impairment test. The Company adopted ASC ASU 2011-08 in the second quarter of 2012.
3. Restricted Cash
As of October 1, 2011 and April 2, 2011, the Company had restricted cash of $22.3 million and $10.8 million, respectively, which collateralizes commercial letters of credit. See Note 14 Legal Proceedings for further discussion.
4. Fair Value Measurements
Financial Assets Measured at Fair Value
Fair value is defined under ASC Topic 820 Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (ASC Topic 820) as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. ASC Topic 820 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers include the following:
| Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; |
4
| Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities that are either directly or indirectly observable; and |
| Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions. |
The Companys fair value hierarchy for its financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of October 1, 2011 and April 2, 2011 was as follows (in thousands):

For Level 1 assets, the Company utilized quoted prices in active markets for identical assets.
For Level 2 assets, exclusive of forward contracts, the Company utilized quoted prices in active markets for similar assets. For forward contracts, spot prices at September 30, 2011 and April 1, 2011 were utilized to calculate fair values.
The Level 3 assets consisted of auction rate securities (ARS) and preferred stock acquired through the conversion of ARS. Since auctions of ARS had not recently occurred, estimated fair values were based primarily upon the income approach using a discounted cash flow model which took into account the following: (i) the underlying structure of each security; (ii) the present value of future principal and interest payments discounted at rates that reflect current market conditions; (iii) consideration of the probabilities of default, restructuring or redemption by the issuer (trigger events); (iv) estimates of the recovery rates in the event of default for each security; (v) the financial condition, results, ratings of and financial claims on the bond insurers and issuers; and (vi) the underlying trust assets of the securities.
As of October 1, 2011, the Company did not have any ARS investments. During the first quarter of 2012, the Company sold all of its remaining ARS for approximately $6.0 million and all of its preferred stock for approximately $0.5 million. These ARS had a total estimated fair value of $5.2 million as of April 2, 2011, which consisted of $10.7 million par value ARS and $4.0 million par value ARS which were converted by the bond issuer to its preferred stock in 2009. The Company recorded a gain of $2.7 million in the first quarter of 2012, which included $1.4 million in reclassification of previously recorded unrealized gain out of accumulated other comprehensive income.
5
As of October 1, 2011, the Company had $6.0 million invested in Series D Preferred Stock and $3.0 million invested in Series E Preferred Stock of OmniGuide, Inc., representing an 11% interest. At each reporting period end, the Company determines whether events or circumstances have occurred that are likely to have a significant adverse effect on the fair value of these investments. If there are no events or circumstances identified that would adversely affect the fair value of the investments, the fair values of the investments are not calculated as it is not practicable to do so. As of October 1, 2011 and April 2, 2011, management had not identified any events or circumstances that indicated the investments were impaired; therefore, the full carrying value of $9.0 million was included in Other assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at October 1, 2011 and April 2, 2011.

There were no sales of available-for-sale securities in the second quarter of 2012 or 2011 nor in the first quarter of 2011. In addition to the sales of ARS in the first quarter of 2012, the Company sold certain available-for-sale securities for approximately $3.5 million at cost. For purposes of determining gross realized gains and losses and reclassification out of accumulated other comprehensive income, the cost of securities sold is based on specific identification. Net unrealized holding gains and losses on current available-for-sale securities included in accumulated other comprehensive income were insignificant as of October 1, 2011 and April 2, 2011.
Underlying maturities of investments as October 1, 2011 were $140.9 million within one year and $23.1 million between one to five years.

Net warranty charges incurred include labor charges and costs of replacement parts for system repairs under warranty. These costs are recorded net of any estimated cost recoveries resulting from either successful repair of damaged parts or from warranties offered by the Companys suppliers for defective components. The provision for warranty charges reflects the estimate of future anticipated net warranty costs to be incurred for all products under warranty at quarter end and is recorded to cost of sales.
10. Deferred Revenue
Generally, revenue is recognized upon fulfillment of acceptance criteria at the Companys factory and title transfer which frequently occurs at the time of delivery to a common carrier. Revenue is deferred whenever title transfer is pending and/or acceptance criteria have not yet been fulfilled. Deferred revenue occurrences include sales to Japanese customers, shipments of substantially new products and shipments with custom specifications and acceptance criteria. In sales involving multiple element arrangements, the fair value of any undelivered elements, including installation services, is deferred until the elements are delivered and acceptance criteria are met. Revenue related to maintenance and service contracts is deferred and recognized ratably over the duration of the contracts.

14. Legal Proceedings
All Ring Patent Infringement Prosecution
The Companys proceedings against All Ring Tech Co., Ltd (All Ring) in Taiwan for alleged patent infringement are ongoing. As a part of these proceedings, the Company established three letters of credit for approximately $19.5 million in July 2009, September 2009 and June 2011, which are collateralized by $22.3 million of restricted cash. The total restricted cash balance was included in Restricted cash on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of October 1, 2011.
9
In June 2011, the Kaohsiung District Court of Taiwan announced its judgment, finding that All Ring had infringed on the Companys 207469 patent, ordering All Ring to pay the Company approximately $24.0 million plus interest accrued from November 4, 2005 through the payment date at a rate of 5%, and enjoining All Ring from selling any system infringing the 207469 patent. On June 16, 2011, All Ring posted a cash bond for approximately $24.0 million to prevent the provisional execution of the judgment. All Ring appealed this judgment to the Intellectual Property Court on June 28, 2011 and on October 31, 2011, the Company filed its response to All Rings appeal. See the Companys Form 10-K for the year ended April 2, 2011 for further background and additional information related to these proceedings.
In the ordinary course of business, the Company is involved in various other legal matters, either asserted or unasserted, and investigations. In the opinion of management, ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material effect on the Companys consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Business Overview
Electro Scientific Industries, Inc. and its subsidiaries (ESI) is a leading supplier of innovative laser-based manufacturing solutions for the microtechnology industry. Our advanced laser systems enable precise structuring and testing of micron to submicron features in components and devices which are used in a wide variety of end products in the consumer electronics, computer, communications and other industries. These features enable our customers to achieve functionality, or improve yield and productivity in their manufacturing processes that can be critical to their profitability. Founded in 1944, ESI is headquartered in Portland, Oregon, with global operations and subsidiaries in Asia, Canada, Europe and the United States.
Our advanced laser microengineering systems allow semiconductor, microelectronics, and other microtechnology manufacturers to physically alter select device features during high-volume production in order to increase performance and improve production yields. Laser microengineering comprises a set of precise micron-level processes, including advanced micromachining, via drilling, wafer scribing and dicing, material ablation, semiconductor memory-link cutting, electronic device trimming, and nano-level structuring to alter material characteristics such as color and texture. These processes require application-specific laser systems able to meet our customers exacting performance and productivity requirements. Our laser-based systems improve production yields or enable improved performance for semiconductor devices, flexible interconnect material, high-density interconnect (HDI) circuits, advanced semiconductor packaging, light emitting diodes (LEDs), flat panel liquid crystal displays (LCDs) and other high value components.
Additionally, we produce high-capacity test and optical inspection equipment that is critical to the quality control process during the production of multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs). Our equipment ensures that each component meets the electrical, physical and optical tolerances required to perform properly.
Summary of Sequential Quarterly Results
The financial results of the quarter ended October 1, 2011, which represented the second fiscal quarter of 2012, reflected strong sales and earnings as revenue increased to $81.9 million. However, total order volume for the second quarter of 2012 declined to approximately $41 million, compared to approximately $99 million for the first quarter of 2012, which ended July 2, 2011. The sequential decrease in orders was primarily due to a large advanced micromachining order received in the first quarter that did not repeat in the second quarter. In addition, the slowing macro-economic environment caused our memory, LED and passive component customers to halt capacity additions.
Orders for our Interconnect/ Micromachining Group (IMG) products decreased approximately 50% compared to the prior quarter. Orders for micromachining products tend to vary in volume between periods and our very large first quarter order was an example of this type of uneven demand. Within this group, the demand for our flex interconnect products continued to be strong, driven by growth in the market for smart phone and tablet devices, which requires smaller components.
10
Orders for our Semiconductor Group (SG) products decreased approximately 80% in the second quarter of 2012 compared to the prior quarter as memory repair customers deferred adding capacity as a result of slowing demand for personal computers. In addition, orders declined in LED as a result of a significant overcapacity in the industry, especially for makers of LED backlights for display.
Orders for our Components Group (CG) products decreased approximately 45% compared to the prior quarter. The decrease was primarily due to a decline in orders from our MLCC customers as they utilize existing capacity to meet their production demands.
Net sales of $81.9 million for the second quarter of 2012 increased $4.9 million compared to $77.0 million for the prior quarter. Sales for our IMG products increased $3.0 million due to fulfillment of backlog orders from micromachining customers. SG sales increased $6.2 million with steady shipments to our memory repair customers combined with an increase in deliveries for our LED scribing tools. CG sales decreased $4.3 million as our MLCC customers absorbed capacity created by systems delivered in prior quarters.
Gross margin remained relatively flat at 43.9% on net sales of $81.9 million for the second quarter of 2012 compared to 43.8% on net sales of $77.0 million for the prior quarter.
Net operating expenses of $25.6 million in the second quarter of 2012 decreased $2.7 million compared to the prior quarter. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease of $1.6 million in selling, service and administration (SS&A), $0.5 million in research, development and engineering (RD&E) and $0.6 million in legal settlement costs. SS&A expense decreased primarily due to share-based compensation expense. Share-based compensation expense during the first quarter included the accelerated expensing associated with the Chief Executive Officers retirement eligibility date and the immediate vesting of the annual board of director share grants, which did not repeat during the second quarter. RD&E decreased primarily due to lower project materials cost. Legal settlement costs decreased because the court and legal fees associated with the All Ring litigation incurred during the first quarter were non-recurring in the second quarter.
Operating income was $10.3 million in the second quarter of 2012, an increase of $4.8 million compared to operating income of $5.5 million in the prior quarter. The increase was primarily due to higher sales combined with lower operating expenses discussed above.
The effective tax rate was 13.8% for the second quarter of 2012, resulting from an income tax provision of $1.4 million, compared to an effective rate of 26.7% for the prior quarter that resulted from an income tax provision of $2.2 million. The decrease in the effective tax rate was primarily due to the fluctuation in the estimated level of annual income for fiscal 2012, the quarterly income level and the mix of income and relative tax rates between jurisdictions.
Net income for the second quarter of 2012 was $8.5 million compared to $5.9 million in the prior quarter due to the impact of the items discussed above.

Net Sales
Net sales were $81.9 million for the second quarter of 2012, an increase of $22.3 million or 37% compared to net sales of $59.6 million for the second quarter of 2011. The increase in revenue was primarily driven by strong shipments in IMG as well as the delivery of backlog from capacity orders in SG, partially offset by a decrease in CG as capacity expansion by MLCC customers dropped off.

IMG sales in the second quarter of 2012 increased $18.1 million or 55% compared to the second quarter of 2011. The increase was primarily driven by the shipment of the majority of the very large micromachining order received in our first quarter, and continued strong demand for our flex via drilling products.
SG sales in the second quarter of 2012 increased $11.0 million or 84% compared to the second quarter of 2011. The overall increase in sales was primarily driven by delivery of backlog orders in memory repair, combined with an increase in deliveries and acceptances for our LED scribing tools.
CG sales in the second quarter of 2012 decreased $6.8 million or 51% compared to the second quarter of 2011. The decrease was a result of our MLCC customers absorbing capacity created by systems delivered in prior quarters.

The increase in Asia was driven by increases in our IMG and SG product groups as utilization and capacity requirements of our Asian manufacturing customers continued to increase. Net sales in the Americas and Europe remain a lower percentage of total sales as purchases in these regions are primarily for specialized uses or research and development purposes, as compared to the trend by our Asian customers to source their high-volume manufacturing in that region.

Selling, Service and Administration
Selling, service and administration (SS&A) expenses primarily consist of labor and other employee-related expenses including share-based compensation expense, travel expenses, professional fees, sales commissions and facilities costs. SS&A expenses were $14.9 million for the second quarter of 2012, which was slightly lower than $15.0 million in the second quarter of 2011. This decrease was primarily driven by efforts to control overall expenses despite a selective increase in headcount, which predominantly occurred in Asia.
13
Research, Development and Engineering
Research, development and engineering (RD&E) expenses are primarily comprised of labor and other employee-related expenses, professional fees, project materials, equipment costs and facilities costs. RD&E expenses totaled $10.7 million for the second quarter of 2012, an increase of $0.5 million compared to the second quarter of 2011. This increase was primarily due to labor costs associated with selective increases in headcount and to a lesser extent, higher project materials cost.
Non-operating Income and Expense
Interest and Other (Expense) Income, net
Interest and other income, net, consists of interest income and expense, market gains and losses on assets held for our deferred compensation plan, realized and unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses, bank charges, investment management fees and other miscellaneous non-operating items. Net interest and other expense was $0.4 million during the second quarter of 2012 compared to net interest and other income of $0.2 million for the second quarter of 2011.
The decrease in income was primarily attributable to losses on assets held for our deferred compensation plan, which approximated $0.3 million for the quarter, and to a lesser extent, to an increase in foreign currency losses as well as a decrease in interest income. Interest income declined as our Auction Rate Securities (ARS), which were sold in the previous two quarters, were earning above market interest rates.

The income tax provision for the second quarter of 2012 was $1.4 million on pretax income of $9.9 million, an effective tax rate of 13.8%. For the second quarter of 2011, the income tax provision was $1.5 million on pretax income of $0.9 million, an effective tax rate of 166.1%. The lower effective tax rate for second quarter of 2012 was primarily due to the fluctuation in the level of expected annual income between the two years, the relative quarterly income level, and the mix of income between jurisdictions and their relative tax rates.
Our effective tax rate is subject to fluctuation based upon the mix of income and relative tax rates between jurisdictions, and the occurrence and timing of numerous discrete events such as changes in tax laws or their interpretations, extensions or expirations of research and experimentation credits, closure of tax years subject to examination, finalization of income tax returns, the relationship of fixed deductions to overall changes in estimated and actual pretax income or loss and the tax jurisdictions where income or loss is generated. Based on currently available information, we are not aware of any further discrete events which are likely to occur that would have a material effect on our financial position, expected cash flows or results of operations. We anticipate no significant changes in unrecognized tax benefits in the next twelve months as the result of examinations or lapsed statutes of limitation.

Net income for the second quarter of 2012 was $8.5 million, or $0.30 per basic share and $0.29 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $0.6 million, or $0.02 per basic and diluted share for the second quarter of 2011. The improvement was primarily due to improved gross profit on higher revenues in the second quarter of 2012.

Net Sales
Net sales were $158.9 million for the first two quarters of 2012, an increase of $40.9 million or 35% compared to net sales of $118.0 million for the first two quarters of 2011. The increase was primarily driven by the high shipment level of our IMG products as well as strong demand for our SG products, partially offset by a decrease in CG as capacity expansion by MLCC customers dropped off.

IMG sales in the first two quarters of 2012 increased $45.7 million or 85% compared to the first two quarters of 2011. The increase was primarily driven by the shipment of the majority of the very large micromachining order received in our first quarter, and continued strong demand for our flex via drilling products.
SG sales in the first two quarters of 2012 increased $10.0 million or 31% compared to the first two quarters of 2011. The overall increase in sales was driven by delivery of backlog orders in memory repair, combined with an increase in deliveries and acceptances for our LED scribing tools.
CG sales in the first two quarters of 2012 decreased $14.8 million or 46% compared to the first two quarters of 2011. The decrease was primarily due to our MLCC customers absorbing capacity created by systems delivered in prior quarters.

Compared to the first two quarters of 2011, net sales for the first two quarters of 2012 increased across all geographic regions: $37.9 million or 36% in Asia, $2.2 million or 29% in the Americas and $0.7 million or 13% in Europe. The majority of our systems are sold into Asia as our customers manufacturing facilities primarily reside in that region. The increase in Asia was driven by increases in our IMG and SG product groups as utilization and capacity requirements of our Asian manufacturing customers continued to increase. Net sales in the Americas and Europe remain a lower percentage of total sales as purchases in these regions are primarily for specialized uses or research and development purposes, as compared to the trend by our Asian customers to source their high-volume manufacturing in that region.

Gross profit for the first two quarters of 2012 was $69.7 million, an increase of $22.2 million compared to gross profit of $47.5 million for the first two quarters of 2011. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales increased to 43.9% for the first two quarters of 2012 from 40.2% for the two quarters of 2011. These increases were primarily related to higher revenue levels, increased production capacity utilization and the sale of lower margin legacy products in the first quarter of 2011.

Selling, Service and Administration
SS&A expenses were $31.4 million for the first two quarters of 2012, an increase of $3.5 million compared to the first two quarters of 2011. Excluding the impact of $0.9 million of acquisition settlement proceeds received during the first quarter of 2011, the increase was $2.6 million. This increase was primarily related to share-based compensation, which was driven by accelerated expensing associated with the Chief Executive Officers retirement eligibility date and increased estimated attainment of performance based grants in the first quarter of 2012. Additionally, labor and travel costs were higher due to selective headcount increases, primarily in Asia, and activities associated with higher business volumes experienced progressively throughout fiscal 2011 and the first half of fiscal 2012.
16
Research, Development and Engineering
RD&E expenses totaled $22.0 million for the first two quarters of 2012, an increase of $1.5 million compared to the first two quarters of 2011. This increase was primarily due to labor costs associated with selective increases in headcount and to a lesser extent, higher project materials cost.
Legal Settlement Costs
Legal settlement costs for the first two quarters of 2012 were $0.6 million, which consisted of court and legal fees associated with the All Ring litigation and other non-recurring legal matters. There were no legal settlement costs in the first two quarters of 2011.
Non-operating Income and Expense
Gain on Sale of Previously Impaired Auction Rate Securities (ARS)
During the first quarter of 2012, we sold all of our remaining ARS with a total par value of $14.7 million for approximately $6.5 million. We recorded a total gain of $2.7 million, which included $1.4 million in reclassification of previously recorded unrealized gains out of accumulated other comprehensive income. There were no sales of ARS during the first two quarters of 2011.
Interest and Other Income (expense), net
Net interest and other expense was $0.5 million for the first two quarters of 2012 compared to net interest and other income of $0.2 million for the first two quarters of 2011. The decrease in income was primarily due to losses on assets held for our deferred compensation plan, unfavorable foreign currency impact and, to a lesser extent, lower interest yields on our investments due to the sale of ARS in the previous two quarters. Interest income declined as our ARS were earning above market interest rates.

The income tax provision for the first two quarters of 2012 was $3.5 million on pretax income of $18.0 million, an effective tax rate of 19.6%. For the first two quarters of 2011, the income tax benefit was $0.2 million on pretax loss of $0.6 million, an effective tax rate of 31.7%. The lower effective tax rate for the first two quarters of 2012 was primarily due to the fluctuation in the level of expected annual income between the two years, the relative quarterly income level, and the mix of income between jurisdictions and their relative tax rates.
Our effective tax rate is subject to fluctuation based upon the mix of income and relative tax rates between jurisdictions, and the occurrence and timing of numerous discrete events such as changes in tax laws or their interpretations, extensions or expirations of research and experimentation credits, closure of tax years subject to examination, finalization of income tax returns, the relationship of fixed deductions to overall changes in estimated and actual pretax income or loss and the tax jurisdictions where income or loss is generated. Based on currently available information, we are not aware of any further discrete events which are likely to occur that would have a material effect on our financial position, expected cash flows or results of operations. We anticipate no significant changes in unrecognized tax benefits in the next twelve months as the result of examinations or lapsed statutes of limitation.

Net income for the first two quarters of 2012 was $14.5 million, or $0.51 per basic share and $0.49 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $0.4 million, or $0.01 per basic and diluted share for the first two quarters of 2011. The improvement was primarily due to improved gross profit on higher revenues in the first two quarters of 2012, offsetting the impact of higher net operating expenses, and the $2.7 million gain on the sale of previously impaired ARS investments.
Financial Condition and Liquidity
At October 1, 2011, our principal sources of liquidity were cash and cash equivalents of $84.1 million, short-term investments of $96.5 million and accounts receivable of $29.6 million. We also held $22.3 million in restricted cash which represented collateral for commercial letters of credit. Our current ratio was 7.1 to 1.0 and we held no long-term debt. Working capital of $278.2 million was up slightly compared to the April 2, 2011 balance of $259.7 million.
In 2008, the Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program totaling $20.0 million to acquire shares of our outstanding common stock primarily to offset dilution from equity compensation programs. Repurchases under the program are to be made at managements discretion in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions in compliance with applicable securities laws and other legal requirements and are subject to market conditions, share price and other factors. We did not repurchase any shares under this program during the two quarters ended October 1, 2011 and October 2, 2010. As of October 1, 2011, a total of 372,825 shares have been repurchased under this authorization for $5.3 million at an average price of $14.16 per share, calculated inclusive of commissions and fees. There is no fixed completion date for the repurchase program.
As of October 1, 2011, we did not have any ARS investments. During the first quarter of 2012, we sold all of the remaining ARS for approximately $6.0 million and all of the preferred stock for approximately $0.5 million. These ARS had a total estimated fair value of $5.2 million as of April 2, 2011, which consisted of $10.7 million par value ARS and $4.0 million par value ARS which were converted by the bond issuer to its preferred stock in 2009. We recorded a gain of $2.7 million in the first quarter of 2012, which included $1.4 million in reclassification of previously recorded unrealized gain out of accumulated other comprehensive income.
Sources and Uses of Cash
Net cash flows provided by operating activities totaled $15.5 million for the two quarters ended October 1, 2011 due to net income of $14.5 million and $13.0 million in non-cash items, which was partially offset by $12.0 million in net reductions within working capital. The primary use of cash from working capital consisted of $16.7 million from decreases in accounts payable and other liabilities, $6.7 million from net decreases in deferred revenue and $9.7 million in increases in inventory, partially offset by $14.5 million in decreases of trade receivables, decreases in shipped systems pending acceptance of $4.0 million and net decreases in current assets of $2.6 million.
For the two quarters ended October 1, 2011, net cash used in investing activities of $50.5 million was due to the purchase of securities of $436.3 million, an increase in restricted cash of $11.5 million, and purchases of property, plant and equipment of $3.4 million, partially offset by $394.0 million in proceeds from maturities of securities and $6.5 million in sales of ARS. Net cash provided by financing activities of $2.2 million was primarily due to proceeds from exercise of stock options and stock plans.
We believe that our existing cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments are adequate to fund our operations, share repurchase program and contractual obligations for at least the next twelve months.

PART II OTHER INFORMATION
All Ring Patent Infringement Prosecution
Our proceedings against All Ring Tech Co., Ltd (All Ring) in Taiwan for alleged patent infringement are ongoing. As a part of these proceedings, we established three letters of credit for approximately $19.5 million in July 2009, September 2009 and June 2011, which are collateralized by $22.3 million of restricted cash. The total restricted cash balance was included in Restricted cash on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of October 1, 2011.
In June 2011, the Kaohsiung District Court of Taiwan announced its judgment, finding that All Ring had infringed on our 207469 patent, ordering All Ring to pay us approximately $24.0 million plus interest accrued from November 4, 2005 through the payment date at a rate of 5%, and enjoining All Ring from selling any system infringing the 207469 patent. On June 16, 2011, All Ring posted a cash bond for approximately $24.0 million to prevent the provisional execution of the judgment. All Ring appealed this judgment to the Intellectual Property Court on June 28, 2011 and on October 31, 2011, we filed our response to All Rings appeal. See our Form 10-K for the year ended April 2, 2011 for further background and additional information related to these proceedings. In the ordinary course of business, we are involved in various other legal matters, either asserted or unasserted, and investigations. In the opinion of management, ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

The statements contained in this report that are not statements of historical fact, including without limitation statements containing the words believes, expects and similar words, constitute forward-looking statements that are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties. From time to time, we may make other forward-looking statements. Investors are cautioned that such forward-looking statements are subject to an inherent risk that actual results may differ materially. The following information highlights some of the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results expressed or implied by our forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements should be considered in light of these factors. Factors that may result in such variances include, but are not limited to, the following:
Risks Related to Our Competition and Customers
Volatility of Our Customers Industries
Our business is dependent upon the capital expenditures of manufacturers of microelectronics, semiconductors and LEDs used in consumer electronics, computers, wireless communications and other electronic products. The capital equipment market for semiconductor, microelectronics and consumer electronics manufacturers has historically been characterized by sudden and severe cyclical variations in product supply and demand due to a number of factors including capacity utilization, demand for customers products, inventory levels relative to demand and access to affordable capital. The timing, severity and duration of these market cycles are difficult or impossible to predict. As a result, business levels can vary significantly from quarter to quarter or year to year. Significant downturns in the market for semiconductor and microelectronics used in electronic devices or in the market for consumer electronics reduce demand for our products and may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results. For example, the economic slowdown that began in 2008 resulted in a decrease in orders for all of our product groups for each quarter throughout 2009, with virtually no orders for our memory repair systems throughout 2010. Additionally, some of our customers ability to access credit was adversely affected, limiting their ability to purchase our products. Starting in the second quarter of 2012, we again began to experience a significant reduction in orders due to increased uncertainties regarding global economic conditions. The degree of the impact of any downturn on our business depends on a number of factors, including: the strength of the global and US economies; the overall level of demand for consumer electronics products; the stability of global financial systems; and the overall health of the semiconductor, microelectronics, LED and consumer electronics industries.
Highly Competitive Markets
We face substantial competition from established competitors throughout the world, some of which have greater financial, engineering, manufacturing and marketing resources than we do. Those competitors with greater resources may, in addition to other things, be able to better withstand periodic downturns, compete more effectively on the basis of price and technology, or more quickly develop enhancements to, and new generations of, products that compete with the products we manufacture and market. New companies may enter the markets in which we compete, or industry consolidation may occur, further increasing competition in those markets. We believe that to be competitive we must continue to expend significant financial resources in order to, among other things, invest in new product development and enhancements. We may not be able to compete successfully in the future and increased competition may result in price reductions, reduced profit margins and loss of market share.
Increased Price Pressure
We have experienced and continue to experience price pressure in the sale of our products, from both competitors and customers. Pricing pressures typically have become more intense during cyclical downturns when competitors seek to maintain or increase market share, reduce inventory or introduce more technologically advanced products. In addition, we may agree to pricing concessions with our customers in connection with volume orders. Our business, financial condition, margins or results of operations may be materially and adversely affected by competitive pressure and intense price-based competition.
20
Revenues are Largely Dependent on Few Customers
We depend on a few significant customers for a large portion of our revenues. In 2011, our top ten customers accounted for approximately 62% of total net sales, with one customer accounting for approximately 24% of total net sales. We anticipate that sales of our products to a relatively small number of customers will continue to account for a significant portion of our revenues. Consolidation between customers, changes in various partnership and technology arrangements between customers, customer bankruptcies or customer departures from their respective industries all may result in even fewer customers accounting for a high percentage of our revenue. Furthermore, none of our customers have any long-term obligation to continue to buy our products or services and may, therefore delay, reduce or cease ordering our products or services at any time. The cancellation, reduction or deferral of purchases of our products by even a single customer could significantly reduce our revenues in any particular quarter. If we were to lose any of our significant customers or suffer a material reduction in their purchase orders, revenue could decline and our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.
Revenues are Largely Based on the Sale of a Small Number of Product Units
We derive a substantial portion of our revenue from the sale of a relatively small number of products. Accordingly, our revenues, margins and other operating results could fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter depending upon a variety of factors in addition to those described above, including:
| changes in the timing and terms of product orders by our customers; |
| changes in the mix of products and services that we sell; |
| timing and market acceptance of our new product introductions; and |
| delays or problems in the planned introduction of new products, or in the performance of any such products following delivery to customers. |
As a result of these risks, we believe that quarter-to-quarter comparisons of our revenue and operating results may not be meaningful, and that these comparisons may not be an accurate indicator of our future performance.
Risks Related to Our Supply Chain and Production
Variability of Production Capacity
To meet rapidly changing demand in the industries we serve, we must effectively manage our resources and production capacity. During periods of decreasing demand for our products, we must be able to appropriately align our cost structure with prevailing market conditions and effectively manage our supply chain. Our ability to rapidly and effectively reduce our cost structure in response to such downturns is limited by the fixed nature of many of our expenses in the near term and by our need to continue our investment in next-generation product technology and to support and service our products. Conversely, when upturns occur in the markets we serve, we may have difficulty rapidly and effectively increasing our manufacturing capacity or procuring sufficient materials to meet sudden increases in customer demand that could result in the loss of business to our competitors and harm to our relationships with our customers. If we are not able to timely and appropriately adapt to changes in our business environment, our business, financial condition or results of operations may be materially and adversely affected.
Problems with Critical Suppliers
We use a wide range of components from numerous suppliers in the manufacture of our products, including custom electronic, laser, optical and mechanical components. We generally do not have guaranteed supply arrangements with our suppliers. We seek to reduce the risk of production and service interruptions and shortages of key parts by selecting and qualifying alternative suppliers for key parts, monitoring the financial stability of key suppliers and maintaining appropriate inventories of key parts. Although we make reasonable efforts to ensure that parts are available from multiple suppliers, some key parts are available only from a single supplier or a limited group of suppliers in the short term. In addition, some of the lasers we use in our products are difficult to manufacture, and as a result we may not receive an adequate supply of lasers in a timely fashion to fill orders. Operations at our suppliers facilities are subject to disruption or discontinuation for a variety of reasons, including changes in business relationships, competitive factors, financial difficulties, work stoppages, fire, natural disasters or other causes. Any such disruption or discontinuation to our suppliers operations could interrupt or reduce our manufacturing activities and delay delivery of our products, any or all of which could materially and adversely affect our results of operations. In addition, when markets recover from the recent economic downturn, there is a heightened risk that one or more of our suppliers may not be able to meet increased demand requirements, adversely impacting our ability to fulfill orders and win business with our customers.
21
Problems with Contract Manufacturers
We have arrangements with contract manufacturers to complete the manufacturing of certain of our products or product subcomponents. Any significant interruption in our contract manufacturers ability to provide manufacturing services to us as a result of contractual disputes with us or another party, labor disruptions, financial difficulties, natural disasters, delay or interruption in the receipt of inventory, customer prioritization or other causes could result in reduced manufacturing capabilities or delayed deliveries for certain of our products, any or all of which could materially and adversely affect our results of operations.
Charges for Excess or Obsolete Inventory
One factor on which we compete is the ability to ship products on schedules required by customers. In order to facilitate timely shipping, management forecasts demand, both in type and amount of products, and these forecasts are used to determine inventory to be purchased. We also order materials based on our technology roadmap, which represents managements assessment of technology that will be utilized in new products that we develop. Certain types of inventory, including lasers and optical equipment, are particularly expensive and may only be used in the production of a single type of product. If actual demand is lower than forecast with respect to the type or amount of products actually ordered, or both, our inventory levels may increase. As a result, there is a risk that we may have to incur material accounting charges for excess and obsolete inventory if inventory cannot be used, which would negatively affect our financial results. Also, if we alter our technology or product development strategy, we may have inventory that may not be usable under the new strategy, which may also result in material accounting charges.
Risks Related to Our Organization
Operating a Global Business
International shipments accounted for 93% of net sales in 2011, with 89% of our net sales to customers in Asia. We expect that international shipments will continue to represent a significant percentage of net sales in the future. We also have significant foreign operations, including a Singapore manufacturing facility, research and development facilities in Taiwan and China, and sales and service offices in various countries. Under our globalization strategy, we intend to increase our foreign operations in the future. Our non-U.S. sales, purchases and operations are subject to risks inherent in conducting business abroad, many of which are outside our control, including the following:
| periodic local or geographic economic downturns and unstable political conditions; |
| price and currency exchange controls; |
| fluctuation in the relative values of currencies; |
| difficulty in repatriating money, whether as a result of tax laws or otherwise; |
| difficulties protecting intellectual property; |
| compliance with labor laws and other laws governing employees; |
| local labor disputes; |
| shipping delays and disruptions; |
| unexpected changes in trading policies, regulatory requirements, tariffs and other barriers; and |
| difficulties in managing a global enterprise, including staffing, collecting accounts receivable, and managing suppliers, distributors and representatives. |
22
Our business and operating results could also be impacted, directly or indirectly, by natural disasters, outbreaks of infectious disease, military action, international conflicts, terrorist activities, civil unrest and associated political instability. Many of our facilities, including our Portland, Oregon headquarters, are in areas with known earthquake risk. Some of these events or circumstances may also result in heightened security concerns with respect to domestic and international travel and commerce, which may further affect our business and operating results. In particular, due to these uncertainties, we are subject to the following additional risks:
| future tightening of immigration controls may adversely affect the residence status of non-U.S. engineers and other key technical employees in our U.S. facilities or our ability to hire new non-U.S. employees in such facilities; |
| more frequent instances of shipping delays; |
| demand for our products may not increase or may decrease; and |
| our customers or suppliers may experience financial difficulties or cease operations. |
Implementation and Modification of Globalization Strategy
We are implementing our globalization strategy in which we are moving certain operational resources and capabilities to different countries in Asia to be closer to many of our significant customers and to reduce costs. We believe this strategy will enhance customer relationships, improve our responsiveness, and reduce our manufacturing costs for certain products. We opened a manufacturing facility in Singapore in the fourth quarter of 2010 for certain IMG and CG products.
Our globalization strategy is subject to a variety of complexities and risks, many of which we have little experience managing, and which may divert a substantial amount of managements time. These risks include:
| challenges in designing new facilities that can be scaled for future expansion, replicating current processes and bringing new facilities up to full operation; |
| unpredictable costs, redundancy costs and cost overruns for developing new facilities and acquiring equipment; |
| building local management teams, technical personnel and other staff for functions that we have not previously conducted outside of the United States; |
| technical obstacles such as poor production or process yield and loss of quality control during the ramp of a new facility; |
| re-qualifications and other procedures that may be required by our customers; |
| our ability to bring up local suppliers to meet our quality and cycle-time needs; |
| our ability to reduce costs in the United States as we add costs in Asia; |
| rapidly changing business conditions that may require plans to be changed or abandoned before they are fully implemented; and |
| challenges posed by distance and by differences in language and culture. |
These and other factors could delay the development and implementation of our strategy, as well as impair our gross margins, delay shipments and deliveries, cause us to lose sales, require us to write off investments already made, damage our reputation and harm our business, financial condition and operating results. If we decide to change our current globalization strategy, we may incur charges for certain costs incurred.
Acquisitions and Divestitures
We may make acquisitions of, or significant investments in, other businesses with complementary products, services or technologies, such as our September 2010 acquisition of certain assets of PyroPhotonics Lasers, Inc. Acquisitions involve numerous risks, many of which are unpredictable and beyond our control, including:
| difficulties and increased costs in connection with integration of the personnel, operations, technologies and products of the acquired businesses; |
| implementation of our enterprise resource planning (ERP) system into the acquired companys operations; |
| diversion of managements attention from other operational matters; |
| the potential loss of key employees of the acquired company; |
| lack of synergy or inability to realize expected synergies resulting from the acquisition; |
| acquired assets becoming impaired as a result of technological advancements or worse-than-expected performance by the acquired company; |
| difficulties establishing satisfactory internal controls at the acquired company; |
| risks and uncertainties relating to the performance of the combined company following the transaction; and |
| acquiring unanticipated liabilities for which we will not be indemnified. |
23
Furthermore, the accounting for an acquisition could result in significant charges resulting from amortization or write-off of intangible assets we acquire. Our inability to effectively manage these risks could result in our inability to realize the anticipated benefits of an acquisition on a timely basis, or at all, and materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, all acquisition transaction costs must be expensed as incurred rather than capitalized, which may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.
The means by which we finance an acquisition may also significantly affect our business or the value of the shares of our common stock. If we issue common stock to pay for an acquisition, the ownership percentage of our existing shareholders will be diluted and the value of the shares held by our existing shareholders could be reduced. If we use cash on hand to pay for an acquisition, the payment could significantly reduce the cash that would be available to fund our operations or to use for other purposes. If we borrow funds in connection with an acquisition, we would be required to use cash to service the debt and to comply with financial and other covenants.
We may from time to time also make strategic investments in development stage companies. Investments in development stage companies are subject to a high degree of risk. We cannot assure you that we will not lose all or a portion of our investment in any such company.
Hiring and Retention of Personnel
Our continued success depends in part upon the services of our key managerial, financial and technical personnel. The loss of key personnel, or our inability to attract, assimilate and retain qualified personnel, could result in the loss of customers, inhibit our ability to operate and grow our business and otherwise have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations. We have previously had to, and may in the future have to, impose salary reductions on employees during economic downturns in an effort to maintain our financial position. These actions may have an adverse effect on employee loyalty and may make it more difficult for us to attract and retain key personnel. Competition for qualified personnel in the industries in which we compete is intense, and we may not be successful in attracting and retaining qualified personnel. We may incur significant costs in our efforts to recruit and retain key personnel, which could affect our financial position and results of operations.
Risks Related to Technology
Markets Characterized by Rapid Technological Change
The markets for our products are characterized by rapid technological change and innovation, frequent new product introductions, changes in customer requirements and evolving industry standards. Our future performance will depend on the successful development, introduction and market acceptance of new and enhanced products that address technological changes and the requirements of current and potential customers. The development of new, technologically advanced products is a complex and uncertain process, requiring high levels of innovation and highly skilled engineering and development personnel, as well as the accurate anticipation of technological and market trends. We cannot assure you that we will be able to identify, develop, manufacture, market or support new or enhanced products successfully, if at all, or on a timely basis. The introduction by us or by our competitors of new or enhanced products, or alternative technologies, may cause our customers to defer, change or cancel orders for our existing products or cease purchasing our products altogether. For example, for many years the semiconductor memory industry has explored alternative redundancy technologies such as electrical redundancy technology. If our customers were to achieve sufficient yield improvement with one of these technologies, and adopt it into their manufacturing process, there would be a material adverse effect on the size of the addressable market of our memory yield improvement systems. Further, we cannot assure that our new products will gain market acceptance or that we will be able to respond effectively to product announcements by competitors, technology changes or emerging industry standards. If we are unable to develop new or enhanced products to address product or technology changes or new industry standards on a timely basis or at all, or if our new or enhanced products are not accepted by the market, or if our customers adopt alternative technologies, our business, results of operations and financial condition may be adversely affected.
24
Need to Invest in Research and Development
Our industry is characterized by the need for continued investment in research and development. Because of intense competition in the industries in which we compete, if we were to fail to invest sufficiently in research and development, our products could become less attractive to our current and potential customers or obsolete, and our business and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected. As a result of our need to maintain our spending levels in this area, our operating results could be materially harmed if our net sales decline. In addition, as a result of our emphasis on research and development and technological innovation, our operating costs may increase in the future, and research and development expenses may increase as a percentage of total operating expenses and as a percentage of net sales.
Products are Highly Complex
Our products are highly complex, and our extensive product development, manufacturing and testing processes may not be adequate to detect all defects, errors, failures and quality issues that could impact customer satisfaction or result in claims against us. As a result, we may have to replace certain components or provide remediation in response to the discovery of defects in products after they are shipped. The occurrence of any defects, errors, failures or quality issues could result in cancellation of orders, product returns, diversion of our resources, legal actions by our customers and other losses to us or to our customers. These occurrences could also result in the loss of, or delay in, market acceptance of our products, loss of sales and increased expenses and warranty costs, which would harm our business and adversely affect our revenues and profitability.
Risks Related to Legal Matters
Protection of Proprietary Rights Generally
Our success depends significantly upon the protection of our proprietary rights. We attempt to protect our proprietary rights through patents, copyrights, trademarks, maintenance of trade secrets and other measures, including entering into confidentiality agreements. We incur substantial costs to obtain and maintain patents and to defend our intellectual property rights. For example, we initiated litigation against All Ring Tech Co., Ltd. in Taiwan in August 2005 alleging that certain of our patent rights had been violated. We rely upon the laws of the United States and foreign countries where we develop, manufacture or sell our products to protect our proprietary rights. We may not be successful in protecting these proprietary rights, these rights may not provide the competitive advantages that we expect, or other parties may challenge, invalidate or circumvent these rights.
Protection of Proprietary Rights Foreign Jurisdictions
Our efforts to protect our intellectual property may be less effective in some foreign countries where intellectual property rights are not as well protected as in the United States. Many United States companies have encountered substantial problems in protecting their proprietary rights against infringement in foreign countries. If we fail to adequately protect our intellectual property in these countries, it could be easier for our competitors to sell competing products in foreign countries, which could result in reduced sales and gross margins.
Intellectual Property Infringement Claims
Several of our competitors hold patents covering a variety of technologies, applications and methods of use similar to some of those used in our products. While we attempt in our designs to avoid patent infringement, from time to time we and our customers have received correspondence from our competitors claiming that some of our products, as used by our customers, may be infringing one or more of these patents. Competitors or others have in the past and may in the future assert infringement claims against our customers or us with respect to current or future products or uses, and these assertions may result in costly litigation or require us to obtain a license to use intellectual property rights of others. If claims of infringement are asserted against our customers, those customers may seek indemnification from us for damages or expenses they incur.
If we become subject to infringement claims, we will evaluate our position and consider the available alternatives, which may include seeking licenses to use the technology in question or defending our position. These licenses, however, may not be available on satisfactory terms or at all. If we are not able to negotiate the necessary licenses on commercially reasonable terms or successfully defend our position, our financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.
Tax Audits and Changes in Tax Law
We are periodically under audit by United States and foreign tax authorities and may have exposure to additional tax liabilities as a result. Significant judgment is required in determining our provision for income and other tax liabilities. Although we believe our tax estimates are reasonable, the final outcome of tax audits and the impact of changes in tax laws or the interpretation of tax laws could result in material differences from what is reflected in historical income tax accruals. If additional taxes are assessed as a result of an examination, a material effect on our financial results, tax positions or cash flows could occur in the period or periods in which the determination is made.
25
Legal Proceedings
From time to time we are subject to various legal proceedings, including breach of contract and claims that involve possible infringement of patent or other intellectual property rights of third parties. It is inherently difficult to assess the outcome of litigation matters, and there can be no assurance that we will prevail in any litigation. Any litigation could result in substantial cost and diversion of managements attention, which by itself could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and operating results. Further, adverse determinations in such litigation could result in loss of our property rights, subject us to significant liabilities, require us to seek licenses from others or prevent us from manufacturing or selling our products, any of which could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
Provisions Restricting Our Acquisition
Our articles of incorporation and bylaws contain provisions that could make it harder for a third party to acquire us without the consent of our Board of Directors. Our Board of Directors has also adopted a shareholder rights plan, or poison pill, which would significantly dilute the ownership of a hostile acquirer. In addition, the Oregon Control Share Act and the Oregon Business Combination Act limit the ability of parties who acquire a significant amount of voting stock to exercise control over us. These provisions may have the effect of lengthening the time required for a person to acquire control of us through a proxy contest or the election of a majority of our Board of Directors, and may deter efforts to obtain control of us and may make it more difficult for a third party to acquire us without negotiation. These provisions may apply even if the offer may be considered beneficial by our shareholders.
Risks Related to Financial Matters
Unfavorable Currency Exchange Rate Fluctuations
Currency exchange rate fluctuations could have an adverse effect on our sales and results of operations and we could experience losses with respect to forward exchange contracts into which we may enter. Unfavorable currency fluctuations could require us to increase prices to foreign customers, which could result in lower net sales by us to those customers. Alternatively, if we do not adjust the prices for our products in response to unfavorable currency fluctuations, our results of operations could be materially and adversely affected. In addition, some of our foreign sales are denominated in the currency of the country in which these products are sold and the currency we receive in payment for such sales could be less valuable at the time of receipt as a result of exchange rate fluctuations. From time to time, we enter into forward exchange contracts to hedge the value of accounts receivable primarily denominated in Japanese yen and other currencies. However, we cannot be certain that our efforts will be adequate to protect us against significant currency fluctuations or that such efforts will not expose us to additional exchange rate risks, which could adversely affect our results of operations.
Fluctuations in Effective Tax Rate
As a global company, we are subject to taxation in the United States and numerous foreign jurisdictions. Our effective tax rate is subject to fluctuation from one period to the next because the income tax rates for each year are a function of many factors, including: (a) taxable income levels and the effects of a mix of profits (losses) earned by ESI and our subsidiaries in numerous tax jurisdictions with a broad range of income tax rates; (b) our ability to utilize deferred tax assets; (c) taxes, refunds, interest or penalties resulting from tax audits; (d) the magnitude of various credits and deductions as a percentage of total taxable income; and (e) changes in tax laws or the interpretation of such tax laws. Changes in the mix of these items may cause our effective tax rate to fluctuate between periods, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial position and results of operations.
26
Impairment of Intangible Assets
We held a total of $9.2 million in acquired intangible assets and $4.0 million in goodwill at October 1, 2011. We review our acquired intangible assets for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. We test goodwill for impairment using a qualitative and quantitative approach at least annually or between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value below the carrying value. If such an adverse event occurred and had the effect of changing one of the critical assumptions or estimates related to the fair value of our intangible assets or goodwill, an impairment charge could result. Any such impairment charges may have a material negative impact on our financial condition and operating results.
Stock Price Volatility
The market price of our common stock has fluctuated widely. During fiscal 2011, our stock price fluctuated between a high of $17.44 per share and a low of $10.46 per share. Consequently, the current market price of our common stock may not be indicative of future market prices, and we may be unable to sustain or increase the value of an investment in our common stock. Factors affecting our stock price, many of which our outside of our control, may include:
| variations in operating results from quarter to quarter; |
| changes in earnings estimates by analysts or our failure to meet analysts expectations; |
| changes in the market price per share of our public company customers; |
| market conditions in the semiconductor and other industries into which we sell products; |
| general economic conditions; |
| political changes, hostilities or natural disasters; |
| low trading volume of our common stock; |
| the number of analysts covering our common stock; and |
| the number of firms making a market in our common stock. |
In addition, the stock market has recently experienced significant price and volume fluctuations. These fluctuations have particularly affected the market prices of the securities of high-technology companies like ours. These market fluctuations could adversely affect the market price of our common stock.
Impairment of Investments
Our investment portfolio is primarily comprised of commercial paper, debt securities issued by US governmental agencies and municipal debt securities. These investments are intended to be highly liquid and low risk. If the markets for these securities were to deteriorate for any reason, including as a result of a downgrade in the credit rating of US government securities, the liquidity and value of these investments could be negatively affected, which could result in impairment charges. Any such impairment charges may have a material impact on our financial condition and operating results.

Legal Proceedings | 14. Legal Proceedings All Ring Patent Infringement Prosecution The Company’s proceedings against All Ring Tech Co., Ltd (All Ring) in Taiwan for alleged patent infringement are ongoing. As a part of these proceedings, the Company established three letters of credit for approximately $19.5 million in July 2009, September 2009 and June 2011, which are collateralized by $22.3 million of restricted cash. The total restricted cash balance was included in Restricted cash on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of October 1, 2011.
In June 2011, the Kaohsiung District Court of Taiwan announced its judgment, finding that All Ring had infringed on the Company’s 207469 patent, ordering All Ring to pay the Company approximately $24.0 million plus interest accrued from November 4, 2005 through the payment date at a rate of 5%, and enjoining All Ring from selling any system infringing the 207469 patent. On June 16, 2011, All Ring posted a cash bond for approximately $24.0 million to prevent the provisional execution of the judgment. All Ring appealed this judgment to the Intellectual Property Court on June 28, 2011 and on October 31, 2011, the Company filed its response to All Ring’s appeal. See the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended April 2, 2011 for further background and additional information related to these proceedings. In the ordinary course of business, the Company is involved in various other legal matters, either asserted or unasserted, and investigations. In the opinion of management, ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. |

Deferred Revenue | 10. Deferred Revenue Generally, revenue is recognized upon fulfillment of acceptance criteria at the Company’s factory and title transfer which frequently occurs at the time of delivery to a common carrier. Revenue is deferred whenever title transfer is pending and/or acceptance criteria have not yet been fulfilled. Deferred revenue occurrences include sales to Japanese customers, shipments of substantially new products and shipments with custom specifications and acceptance criteria. In sales involving multiple element arrangements, the fair value of any undelivered elements, including installation services, is deferred until the elements are delivered and acceptance criteria are met. Revenue related to maintenance and service contracts is deferred and recognized ratably over the duration of the contracts. The following is a reconciliation of the changes in deferred revenue:

Basis of Presentation | 1. Basis of Presentation These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted in these interim statements. Accordingly, these condensed consolidated financial statements are to be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended April 2, 2011. These interim statements include all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments and accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of results for the interim periods presented. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the entire year. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of commitments and contingencies at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results may differ from those estimates. Management believes that the estimates used are reasonable. Significant estimates made by management include: revenue recognition; inventory valuation; product warranty reserves; allowance for doubtful accounts; share-based compensation; income taxes including the valuation of deferred tax assets; fair value measurements; valuation of cost method equity investments; and valuation of long-lived assets. There have been no significant changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies from those presented in Note 2 “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended April 2, 2011. All references to years or quarters relate to fiscal years or fiscal quarters unless otherwise noted. |

Fair Value Measurements | 4. Fair Value Measurements Financial Assets Measured at Fair Value Fair value is defined under ASC Topic 820 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (ASC Topic 820) as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. ASC Topic 820 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers include the following:
The Company’s fair value hierarchy for its financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of October 1, 2011 and April 2, 2011 was as follows (in thousands):
For Level 1 assets, the Company utilized quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. For Level 2 assets, exclusive of forward contracts, the Company utilized quoted prices in active markets for similar assets. For forward contracts, spot prices at September 30, 2011 and April 1, 2011 were utilized to calculate fair values. The Level 3 assets consisted of auction rate securities (ARS) and preferred stock acquired through the conversion of ARS. Since auctions of ARS had not recently occurred, estimated fair values were based primarily upon the income approach using a discounted cash flow model which took into account the following: (i) the underlying structure of each security; (ii) the present value of future principal and interest payments discounted at rates that reflect current market conditions; (iii) consideration of the probabilities of default, restructuring or redemption by the issuer (trigger events); (iv) estimates of the recovery rates in the event of default for each security; (v) the financial condition, results, ratings of and financial claims on the bond insurers and issuers; and (vi) the underlying trust assets of the securities. As of October 1, 2011, the Company did not have any ARS investments. During the first quarter of 2012, the Company sold all of its remaining ARS for approximately $6.0 million and all of its preferred stock for approximately $0.5 million. These ARS had a total estimated fair value of $5.2 million as of April 2, 2011, which consisted of $10.7 million par value ARS and $4.0 million par value ARS which were converted by the bond issuer to its preferred stock in 2009. The Company recorded a gain of $2.7 million in the first quarter of 2012, which included $1.4 million in reclassification of previously recorded unrealized gain out of accumulated other comprehensive income.
As of October 1, 2011, the Company had $6.0 million invested in Series D Preferred Stock and $3.0 million invested in Series E Preferred Stock of OmniGuide, Inc., representing an 11% interest. At each reporting period end, the Company determines whether events or circumstances have occurred that are likely to have a significant adverse effect on the fair value of these investments. If there are no events or circumstances identified that would adversely affect the fair value of the investments, the fair values of the investments are not calculated as it is not practicable to do so. As of October 1, 2011 and April 2, 2011, management had not identified any events or circumstances that indicated the investments were impaired; therefore, the full carrying value of $9.0 million was included in Other assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at October 1, 2011 and April 2, 2011. Investments Certain information regarding the Company’s investments at October 1, 2011 and April 2, 2011 was as follows (in thousands):
There were no sales of available-for-sale securities in the second quarter of 2012 or 2011 nor in the first quarter of 2011. In addition to the sales of ARS in the first quarter of 2012, the Company sold certain available-for-sale securities for approximately $3.5 million at cost. For purposes of determining gross realized gains and losses and reclassification out of accumulated other comprehensive income, the cost of securities sold is based on specific identification. Net unrealized holding gains and losses on current available-for-sale securities included in accumulated other comprehensive income were insignificant as of October 1, 2011 and April 2, 2011. Underlying maturities of investments as October 1, 2011 were $140.9 million within one year and $23.1 million between one to five years. |

Recent Accounting Pronouncements In September 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2011-08, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for Impairment” (ASC ASU 2011-08). ASC ASU 2011-08 permits an entity to make a qualitative assessment of whether it is more likely than not that a reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying amount before applying the two-step goodwill impairment test. If an entity concludes it is not more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, it need not perform the two-step impairment test. The Company adopted ASC ASU 2011-08 in the second quarter of 2012. |
