We are a globally-recognized leading provider of end-to-end, global supply chain solutions through which we design, build, ship and service a complete packaged electronic product to original equipment manufacturers ("OEMs") in the following markets:

We provide our advanced design, manufacturing and services through a network of facilities in over 30 countries across four continents. We have established this extensive network of manufacturing facilities in the world's major electronics markets (Asia, the Americas and Europe) in order to serve the outsourcing needs of both multinational and regional OEMs. Our services increase customer competitiveness by delivering improved product quality, leading manufacturability, improved performance, faster time-to-market and reduced costs. Our OEM customers leverage our services to meet their requirements throughout their products' entire life cycles. For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013, we had revenue of $23.6 billion and net income of $277.1 million.

We believe that the combination of our extensive design and engineering services, significant scale and global presence, end-to-end services, advanced supply chain management, industrial parks in low-cost geographic areas and operational track record provide us with a competitive advantage in the market for designing, manufacturing and servicing electronics products for leading multinational and regional OEMs. Through these services and facilities, we offer our OEM customers the ability to simplify their global product development, their manufacturing process, their after sales services and enable our OEM customers to achieve meaningful reductions to time-to-market and costs.

Our business has been subject to seasonality primarily due to our mobile devices market and our consumer devices market, which historically exhibit particular strength in the two quarters leading up to the end of the calendar year in connection with the holiday season.

Our expertise is in the design, manufacturing and services for a broad range of products, and as such, the closest definition of our industry is the outsourcing Electronics Manufacturing Services ("EMS") industry. EMS has experienced significant change and growth as an increasing number of companies elected to outsource some or all of their design, manufacturing, and distribution requirements. We have seen an increase in global OEM manufacturing demand since the 2001 - 2002 technology downturn as more and more OEMs pursued the benefits of outsourcing rather than internal manufacturing. Due to the global economic crisis, which began in late calendar year 2007 and continued through the end of our fiscal year 2010, many of our OEM customers reduced their manufacturing and supply chain outsourcing which negatively impacted our business. In fiscal year 2011, we began seeing some positive signs that demand for our OEM customers' end products was improving, and this trend continued through the end of our 2012 fiscal year. However our revenue in fiscal year 2013 declined compared to that of the prior year, primarily due to our exit from the high

volume and low margin Original Design and Manufacturing ("ODM") PC business last year. The EMS industry has not fully recovered from the last macro-economic downturn and as a result, during fiscal 2013 the Company initiated certain restructuring activities intended to improve operational efficiencies. The growth of the overall industry for calendar 2012 is estimated to have been greater than 4%.

We believe the total available market for outsourcing EMS continues to offer opportunities for growth with current penetration rates estimated to be less than 23%. The intensely competitive nature of the electronics industry, the continually increasing complexity and sophistication of electronics products, pressure on OEMs to reduce product costs and shorter product life cycles encourage OEMs to utilize broad manufacturing and service providers as part of their business and manufacturing strategies. Utilizing global manufacturing and service providers allows OEMs to take advantage of the global design, manufacturing and supply chain management expertise of such providers, and enables OEMs to concentrate on product research, development, marketing and sales. We believe that OEMs realize the following benefits through their strategic relationships with manufacturing and service providers:

We believe that growth in the EMS industry will be driven largely by the needs of OEMs to respond to rapidly changing markets and technologies and to reduce product costs. Additionally, we believe that there are significant opportunities for global manufacturing and service providers to win additional business from OEMs in certain markets or industry segments that have yet to substantially utilize such providers.

We offer a broad range of customer-tailored services to OEMs. We believe that Flextronics has the broadest worldwide capabilities in the industry, from design resources to end-to-end global supply chain services. We believe a key competitive advantage is our ability to provide more value and innovation to our customers because we offer both global economies of scale in procurement, manufacturing and after-market services, as well as market-focused expertise and capabilities in design and engineering. As a result of our focus on specific markets, we believe we are able to better understand complex market dynamics and anticipate trends that impact our OEM customers' businesses, and can help improve our OEM customers' market positioning by effectively adjusting product plans and roadmaps to deliver low-cost, high quality products and meet their time-to-market requirements. Our services allow us to design, build, ship and service a complete packaged electronics product for our OEM customers. These services include:

Our company's goal is to empower talented employees to develop global supply chain solutions that transforms industries and companies. At our core, we are a world-class global design, manufacturing and services company. Our strategy is to maintain our leadership in these core capabilities and to build on these through extended offerings in high-growth sectors.

We continue to enhance our business through the development and broadening of our product and service offerings. Our focus is to be a flexible organization with repeatable execution that adapts to macro-economic changes and creates value which increases our customers' competitiveness. We have concentrated our strategy on market-focused expertise, capabilities, services and our global supply chain services. We believe that the following capabilities differentiate us from our competitors and enable us to better serve our customers' requirements:

Our customers include many of the world's leading technology companies. We have focused on establishing long-term relationships with our customers and have been successful in expanding our relationships to incorporate additional product lines and services. In fiscal year 2013, our ten largest customers accounted for approximately 47% of net sales. No customer accounted for greater than 10% of the Company's net sales in fiscal 2013.

The following table lists in alphabetical order a sample of our largest customers in fiscal year 2013 and the end products of those customers for which we provide design, manufacturing or after-market services:

Customer		End Products

Alcatel-Lucent		Business telecommunications systems and core routers and switches
Apple		Smartphones, notebooks and desktop computing, tablets and consumer entertainment devices
Cisco		Core routers and switches, wireless and enterprise telecommunications infrastructure
Ericsson		Radio base stations for Long Term Evolution and GSM infrastructure
Ford Motor Company		SYNC Modules, Lighting Products, Solenoids and Motion Control Electronics
Hewlett-Packard		Notebook and netbook computers, inkjet printers and storage devices
Huawei Technologies		Wireless and enterprise telecommunications infrastructure and smartphones
Lenovo		All-in-one desktop, desktop and notebook computers
Microsoft		Computer peripherals and consumer electronics products
Research In Motion		Smartphones and other mobile communication devices

Although we obtain firm purchase orders from our customers, OEM customers typically do not make firm orders for delivery of products more than 30 to 90 days in advance. In addition, OEM customers may reschedule or cancel firm orders based upon contractual arrangements. Therefore, we do not believe that the backlog of expected product sales covered by firm purchase orders is a meaningful measure of future sales.

Our market is extremely competitive and includes many companies, several of which have achieved substantial market share. We compete against numerous domestic and foreign manufacturing service providers, as well as our current and prospective customers, who evaluate our capabilities in light of their own capabilities and cost structures. We face particular competition from Asian based competitors, including Taiwanese ODM suppliers who compete in a variety of our end markets and have a substantial share of global information technology hardware production.

We compete with different companies depending on the type of service we are providing or the geographic area in which an activity takes place. We believe that the principal competitive factors in the manufacturing services market are: quality and range of services; design and technological capabilities; cost; location of facilities; responsiveness and flexibility.

Our corporate social responsibility practices focus on global human rights, global environmental conditions, business ethics, and the health and safety of all stakeholders. We do this with controlled business processes, thus ensuring that our business is conducted in a manner that goes beyond compliance alone. We operate programs, including compliance audits and compliance capability building programs that focus on driving continuous improvements in social, ethical, and environmental compliance throughout all of our global operating units in accordance with our Code of Conduct. As a guide to achieve this end, Flextronics looks at principles, policies, and standards as prescribed by the

Electronics Industry Citizenship Coalition ("EICC"), a worldwide association of electronics companies committed to promoting an industry code of conduct for global electronics supply chains to improve working and environmental conditions. Flextronics is a founding member of the EICC coalition.

Being a good corporate citizen does not mean that we should merely conform to the standards. We extend beyond meeting responsibilities by offering a wide range of programs and initiatives that engage our internal and external communities. At the heart of this endeavor lies our pragmatic goal of creating a difference to the people in the community in which we operate. We intend to continue to invest in these global communities through grant-making, financial contributions, volunteer work, support programs and by donating resources.

The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (the "Dodd-Frank Act"), Section 1502 introduces reporting requirements related to the verification of whether Flextronics directly (or indirectly through suppliers of materials) is purchasing the minerals or metals gold, columbite-tantalite. cassiterite, wolframite and their derivatives: tin, tungsten, and tantalum that are being provided by sources in the conflict region of the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and the surrounding neighbor countries. Flextronics is working directly with suppliers, industry groups, and customers to comply with the due diligence reporting requirements necessary to comply with the new law. See "Risk Factor—Compliance with government regulations regarding the use of "conflict minerals" may result in increased costs and risks to us."

Our operations are regulated under various federal, state, local and international laws governing the environment, including laws governing the discharge of pollutants into the air and water, the management and disposal of hazardous substances and wastes and the cleanup of contaminated sites. We have fully implemented processes and procedures to ensure that our operations are in compliance with all applicable environmental regulations. We do not believe that costs of compliance with these laws and regulations will have a material adverse effect on our capital expenditures, operating results, or competitive position. In addition, we are responsible for cleanup of contamination at some of our current and former manufacturing facilities and at some third-party sites. We engage environmental consulting firms to assist us in the evaluation of environmental liabilities of our ongoing operations, historical disposal activities and closed sites in order to establish appropriate accruals in our financial statements. We determine the amount of our accruals for environmental matters by analyzing and estimating the probability of occurrence and the reasonable possibility of incurring costs in light of information currently available. The imposition of more stringent standards or requirements under environmental laws or regulations, the results of future testing and analysis undertaken by us at our operating facilities, or a determination that we are potentially responsible for the release of hazardous substances at other sites could result in expenditures in excess of amounts currently estimated to be required for such matters. While no material exposures have been identified to date that we are aware of, there can be no assurance that additional environmental matters will not arise in the future or that costs will not be incurred with respect to sites as to which no problem is currently known.

We are also required to comply with an increasing number of product environmental compliance regulations focused on the restriction of certain hazardous substances. For example, the electronics industry is subject to the European Union's ("EU") Restrictions on Hazardous Substances ("RoHS") 2011/65/EU, Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment ("WEEE") 2012/19/EU directives, the regulation EC 1907/2006 EU Directive REACH ("Registration, Evaluation, Authorization, and Restriction of Chemicals"), and China RoHS entitled, Management Methods for Controlling Pollution for Electronic Information Products ("EIPs"). Similar legislation has been or may be enacted in other jurisdictions, including in the United States. Our business requires close collaboration with our customers and suppliers to mitigate risk of non-compliance. We have developed rigorous risk mitigating compliance programs designed to meet the needs of our customers as well as the regulations. These

programs vary from collecting compliance or material data from our Flextronics owned suppliers to full laboratory testing, and we require our supply chain to comply. Non-compliance could potentially result in significant costs and/or penalties. RoHS and other similar legislation bans or restricts the use of lead, mercury and certain other specified substances in electronics products and WEEE requires EU importers and/or producers to assume responsibility for the collection, recycling and management of waste electronic products and components. In the case of WEEE, although the compliance responsibility rests primarily with the EU importers and/or producers rather than with EMS companies, OEMs may turn to EMS companies for assistance in meeting their WEEE obligations. New technical classifications of e-Waste being discussed in the Basel Convention technical working group could affect both Flextronics and Flextronics' customers abilities and obligations in electronics repair and refurbishment. Flextronics continues to monitor these discussions and is working with our customers and other technical organizations to minimize the impact to legal and responsibly managed repair operations.

As of March 31, 2013, our global workforce totaled approximately 149,000 employees. In certain international locations, our employees are represented by labor unions and by work councils. We have never experienced a significant work stoppage or strike, and we believe that our employee relations are good.

Our success depends to a large extent upon the continued services of key managerial and technical employees. The loss of such personnel could seriously harm our business, results of operations and business prospects. To date, we have not experienced significant difficulties in attracting or retaining such personnel.

We own or license various United States and foreign patents relating to a variety of technologies. For certain of our proprietary processes, we rely on trade secret protection. We also have registered our corporate name and several other trademarks and service marks that we use in our business in the United States and other countries throughout the world. As of March 31, 2013 and 2012, the carrying value of our intellectual property was not material.

Although we believe that our intellectual property assets and licenses are sufficient for the operation of our business as we currently conduct it, from time to time third parties do assert patent infringement claims against us or our customers. In addition, we provide design and engineering services to our customers and designing and making our own products. As a consequence of these activities, our customers are requiring us to take responsibility for intellectual property to a greater extent than in our manufacturing and assembly businesses. If and when third parties make assertions regarding the ownership or right to use intellectual property, we could be required to either enter into licensing arrangements or to resolve the issue through litigation. Such license rights might not be available to us on commercially acceptable terms, if at all, and any such litigation might not be resolved in our favor. Additionally, litigation could be lengthy and costly and could materially harm our financial condition regardless of the outcome. We also could be required to incur substantial costs to redesign a product or re-perform design services.

Refer to note 17 to our consolidated financial statements included under Item 8 for financial information about our geographic areas.

Our internet address is http://www.flextronics.com. We make available through our Internet website the Company's annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K and amendments to those reports filed or furnished pursuant to Section 13(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as soon as reasonably practicable after we electronically file such material with, or furnish it to, the Securities and Exchange Commission.

We were incorporated in the Republic of Singapore in May 1990. Our principal corporate office is located at 2 Changi South Lane, Singapore 486123. Our U.S. corporate headquarters is located at 6201 America Center Drive, San Jose, CA, 95002.

We depend on industries that continually produce technologically advanced products with short life cycles and our business would be adversely affected if our customers' products are not successful or if our customers lose market share.

Factors affecting any of these industries in general or our customers in particular, could adversely impact us. These factors include:

Our customers may cancel their orders, change production quantities or locations, or delay production, and the inherent difficulties involved in responding to these demands could harm our business.

Cancellations, reductions or delays by a significant customer or by a group of customers have harmed, and may continue to harm, our results of operations by reducing the volumes of products we manufacture and deliver for these customers, by causing a delay in the repayment of our expenditures for inventory in preparation for customer orders and by lowering our asset utilization resulting in lower gross margins. Additionally, current and prospective customers continuously evaluate our capabilities against other providers as well as against the merits of manufacturing products themselves. Our

business would be adversely affected if OEMs decide to perform these functions internally or transfer their business to another provider.

As a provider of electronics design and manufacturing services and components, we must provide increasingly rapid product turnaround time for our customers. We generally do not obtain firm, long-term purchase commitments from our customers, and we often experience reduced lead times in customer orders which may be less than the lead time we require to procure necessary components and materials.

The short-term nature of our customers' commitments and the rapid changes in demand for their products reduces our ability to accurately estimate the future requirements of our customers. This makes it difficult to schedule production and maximize utilization of our manufacturing capacity. In that regard, we must make significant decisions, including determining the levels of business that we will seek and accept, setting production schedules, making component procurement commitments, and allocating personnel and other resources, based on our estimates of our customers' requirements.

On occasion, customers require rapid increases in production or require that manufacturing of their products be transitioned from one facility to another to reduce costs or achieve other objectives. These demands stress our resources and reduce our margins. We may not have sufficient capacity at any given time to meet our customers' demands, and transfers from one facility to another can result in inefficiencies and costs due to excess capacity in one facility and corresponding capacity constraints at another. Due to many of our costs and operating expenses being relatively fixed, customer order fluctuations, deferrals and transfers of demand from one facility to another, as described above, have had a material adverse effect on our operating results in the past and we may experience such effects in the future.

Our industry is extremely competitive; if we are not able to continue to provide competitive services, we may lose business.

We compete with a number of different companies, depending on the type of service we provide or the location of our operations. For example, we compete with major global EMS providers, other smaller EMS companies that have a regional or product-specific focus and ODMs with respect to some of the services that we provide. We also compete with our current and prospective customers, who evaluate our capabilities in light of their own capabilities and cost structures. Our industry is extremely competitive, many of our competitors have achieved substantial market share, and some may have lower cost structures or greater design, manufacturing, financial or other resources than we do. We face particular competition from Asian-based competitors, including Taiwanese ODM suppliers who compete in a variety of our end markets and have a substantial share of global information technology hardware production. If we are unable to provide comparable manufacturing services and improved products at lower cost than the other companies in our market, our net sales could decline.

The majority of our sales come from a small number of customers and a decline in sales to any of these customers could adversely affect our business.

Sales to our ten largest customers represent a significant percentage of our net sales. Our ten largest customers accounted for approximately 47%, 55% and 52% of net sales in fiscal years 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. No customer accounted for greater than 10% of the Company's net sales in fiscal 2013. Our largest customers during fiscal year 2012 were Hewlett-Packard (HP) and Research In Motion (RIM), which each accounted for more than 10% of net sales. No other customer accounted for more than 10% of net sales in fiscal year 2012. Our largest customer during fiscal year 2011 was Research In Motion which accounted for more than 10% of net sales in 2011. No other customer accounted for more than 10% of net sales in fiscal year 2011. Our principal customers have varied from year to year. These customers may experience dramatic declines in their market shares or competitive

position, due to economic or other forces, that may cause them to reduce their purchases from us or, in some cases, result in the termination of their relationship with us. Significant reductions in sales to any of these customers, or the loss of major customers, would materially harm our business. If we are not able to timely replace expired, canceled or reduced contracts with new business, our revenues and profitability could be harmed.

Our components business is dependent on our ability to quickly launch world-class components products, and our investment in the development of our component capabilities, together with the start-up and integration costs necessary to achieve quick launches of world-class components products, may adversely affect our margins and profitability.

Our components business, which includes rigid and flexible printed circuit board fabrication, and power supplies manufacturing, is part of our strategy to improve our competitive position and to grow our future margins, profitability and shareholder returns by expanding our capabilities. The success of our components business is dependent on our ability to design and introduce world-class components that have performance characteristics which are suitable for a broad market and that offer significant price and/or performance advantages over competitive products.

To create these world class components offerings, we must continue to make substantial investments in the development of our components capabilities, in resources such as research and development, technology licensing, test and tooling equipment, facility expansions and personnel requirements. We may not be able to achieve or maintain market acceptance for any of our components offerings in any of our current or target markets. The success of our components business will also depend upon the level of market acceptance of our customers' end products, which incorporate our components, and over which we have no control.

In addition, OEMs often require unique configurations or custom designs which must be developed and integrated in the OEM's product well before the product is launched by the OEM. Thus, there is often substantial lead time between the commencement of design efforts for a customized component and the commencement of volume shipments of the component to the OEM. As a result, we may make substantial investments in the development and customization of products for our customers, and no revenue may be generated from these efforts if our customers do not accept the customized component. Even if our customers accept the customized component, if our customers do not purchase anticipated levels of products, we may not realize any profits.

Our achievement of anticipated levels of profitability in our components business is also dependent on our ability to achieve efficiencies in our manufacturing as well as to manufacture components in commercial quantities to the performance specifications demanded by our OEM customers. As a result of these and other risks, we have been, and in the future may be, unable to achieve anticipated levels of profitability in our components business.

Our exposure to financially troubled customers or suppliers may adversely affect our financial results.

We provide manufacturing services to companies and industries that have in the past, and may in the future, experience financial difficulty. If our customers experience financial difficulty, we could have difficulty recovering amounts owed to us from these customers, or demand for our products from these customers could decline. Additionally, if our suppliers experience financial difficulty we could have difficulty sourcing supply necessary to fulfil production requirements and meet scheduled shipments. If one or more of our customers were to become insolvent or otherwise were unable to pay for the services provided by us on a timely basis, or at all, our operating results and financial condition could be adversely affected. Such adverse effects could include one or more of the following: an increase in our provision for doubtful accounts, a charge for inventory write-offs, a reduction in revenue, and an

increase in our working capital requirements due to higher inventory levels and increases in days our accounts receivable are outstanding.

We may be adversely affected by shortages of required electronic components.

From time to time, we have experienced shortages of some of the electronic components that we use. These shortages can result from strong demand for those components or from problems experienced by suppliers, such as shortages of raw materials. These unanticipated component shortages could result in curtailed production or delays in production, which may prevent us from making scheduled shipments to customers. Our inability to make scheduled shipments could cause us to experience a reduction in sales, increase in inventory levels and costs, and could adversely affect relationships with existing and prospective customers. Component shortages may also increase our cost of goods sold because we may be required to pay higher prices for components in short supply and redesign or reconfigure products to accommodate substitute components. As a result, component shortages could adversely affect our operating results. Our performance depends, in part, on our ability to incorporate changes in component costs into the selling prices for our products.

Our supply chain may also be impacted by other events outside our control, including macro-economic events, political crises or natural or environmental occurrences. Component shortages impacted our results during the second half of fiscal year 2010, during the first quarter of fiscal year 2011 and during fiscal year 2012. The supply constraints were broad based, but the impact was most evident with respect to connectors, capacitors, LCD panels and memory (both DRAM and Flash). These shortages began to abate during the second quarter of fiscal year 2011, and supplies had normalized by the end of the third quarter. In addition, the March 2011 earthquake and tsunami in Japan resulted in disruptions to our supply chain, as a large number of our suppliers of semiconductors and other electronic components are located in Japan. These disruptions had a negative impact on our revenue in the first and second quarters of fiscal year 2012. We also continue to evaluate the extent of the disruption to our supply chain and the impact on our business caused by the flooding in Thailand during the second half of 2011, which had a negative impact on our revenue in the third quarter of fiscal year 2012, as a number of our suppliers of hard disk drives and other electronic components maintain facilities in Thailand.

Our margins and profitability may be adversely affected due to substantial investments, start-up and production ramping costs in our design services.

As part of our strategy to enhance our end-to-end service offerings, we have expanded and continue to expand our design and engineering capabilities. Providing these services can expose us to different or greater potential risks than those we face when providing our manufacturing services.

Although we enter into contracts with our design services customers, we may design and develop products for these customers prior to receiving a purchase order or other firm commitment from them. We are required to make substantial investments in the resources necessary to design and develop these products, and no revenue may be generated from these efforts if our customers do not approve the designs in a timely manner or at all. Even if our customers accept our designs, if they do not then purchase anticipated levels of products, we may not realize any profits. Our design activities often require that we purchase inventory for initial production runs before we have a purchase commitment from a customer. Even after we have a contract with a customer with respect to a product, these contracts may allow the customer to delay or cancel deliveries and may not obligate the customer to any particular volume of purchases. These contracts can generally be terminated on short notice. In addition, some of the products we design and develop must satisfy safety and regulatory standards and some must receive government certifications. If we fail to obtain these approvals or certifications on a timely basis, we would be unable to sell these products, which would harm our sales, profitability and reputation.

Due to the increased risks associated with our design services offerings, we may not be able to achieve a high enough level of sales for this business, and the significant investments in research and development, technology licensing, test and tooling equipment, patent applications, facility expansion and recruitment that it requires, to be profitable. The initial costs of investing in the resources necessary to expand our design and engineering capabilities, and in particular to support our design services offerings, have historically adversely affected our profitability, and may continue to do so as we continue to make investments in these capabilities.

In addition, we agree to certain product price limitations and cost reduction targets in connection with these services. Inflationary and other increases in the costs of the raw materials and labor required to produce the products have occurred and may recur from time to time. Also, the production ramps for these programs are typically significant and negatively impact our margin in early stages as the manufacturing volumes are lower and result in inefficiencies and unabsorbed manufacturing overhead costs. We may not be able to reduce costs, incorporate changes in costs into the selling prices of our products, or increase operating efficiencies as we ramp production of our products, which would adversely affect our margins and our results of operations.

We may not meet regulatory quality standards applicable to our manufacturing and quality processes for medical devices, which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

As a medical device manufacturer, we have additional compliance requirements. We are required to register with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") and are subject to periodic inspection by the FDA for compliance with the FDA's Quality System Regulation ("QSR") requirements, which require manufacturers of medical devices to adhere to certain regulations, including testing, quality control and documentation procedures. Compliance with applicable regulatory requirements is subject to continual review and is rigorously monitored through periodic inspections and product field monitoring by the FDA. If any FDA inspection reveals noncompliance with QSR or other FDA regulations, and the Company does not address the observation adequately to the satisfaction of the FDA, the FDA may take action against us. FDA actions may include issuing a letter of inspectional observations, issuing a warning letter, imposing fines, bringing an action against the Company and its officers, requiring a recall of the products we manufactured for our customers, refusing requests for clearance or approval of new products or withdrawal of clearance or approval previously granted, issuing an import detention on products entering the U.S. from an offshore facility, or shutting down a manufacturing facility. If any of these actions were to occur, it would harm our reputation and cause our business to suffer.

In the European Union ("EU"), we are required to maintain certain standardized certifications in order to sell our products and must undergo periodic inspections to obtain and maintain these certifications. Continued noncompliance to the EU regulations could stop the flow of products into the EU from us or from our customers. In China, the Safe Food and Drug Administration controls and regulates the manufacture and commerce of healthcare products. We must comply with the regulatory laws applicable to medical device manufactures or our ability to manufacture products in China could be impacted. In Japan, the Pharmaceutical Affairs Laws regulate the manufacture and commerce of healthcare products. These regulations also require that subcontractors manufacturing products intended for sale in Japan register with authorities and submit to regulatory audits. Other Asian countries where we operate have similar laws regarding the regulation of medical device manufacturing.

We conduct operations in a number of countries and are subject to risks of international operations.

The distances between the Americas, Asia and Europe create a number of logistical and communications challenges for us. These challenges include managing operations across multiple time zones, directing the manufacture and delivery of products across distances, coordinating procurement of

components and raw materials and their delivery to multiple locations, and coordinating the activities and decisions of the core management team, which is based in a number of different countries. Facilities in several different locations may be involved at different stages of the production of a single product, leading to additional logistical difficulties.

Because our manufacturing operations are located in a number of countries throughout the Americas, Asia and Europe, we are subject to the risks of changes in economic and political conditions in those countries, including:

The attractiveness of our services to U.S. customers can be affected by changes in U.S. trade policies, such as most favored nation status and trade preferences for some Asian countries. In addition, some countries in which we operate, such as Brazil, Hungary, India, Mexico, Malaysia and Poland, have experienced periods of slow or negative growth, high inflation, significant currency devaluations or limited availability of foreign exchange. Furthermore, in countries such as China and Mexico, governmental authorities exercise significant influence over many aspects of the economy, and their actions could have a significant effect on us. We could be seriously harmed by inadequate infrastructure, including lack of adequate power and water supplies, transportation, raw materials and parts in countries in which we operate. In addition, we may encounter labor disruptions and rising labor costs, in particular within the lower-cost regions in which we operate. Any increase in labor costs that we are unable to recover in our pricing to our customers could adversely impact our operating results.

Operations in foreign countries also present risks associated with currency exchange and convertibility, inflation and repatriation of earnings. In some countries, economic and monetary conditions and other factors could affect our ability to convert our cash distributions to U.S. dollars or other freely convertible currencies, or to move funds from our accounts in these countries. Furthermore, the central bank of any of these countries may have the authority to suspend, restrict or otherwise impose conditions on foreign exchange transactions or to approve distributions to foreign investors.

Another significant legal risk resulting from our international operations is compliance with the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act or similar local laws of the countries in which we do business, including the UK Anti-Bribery Act, which prohibits covered companies from making payments to foreign government officials to assist in obtaining or retaining business. Our Code of Business Conduct prohibits corrupt payments on a global basis and precludes us from offering or giving anything of value to a government official for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business, to win a business advantage

or to improperly influence a decision regarding Flextronics. Nevertheless, there can be no assurance that all of our employees and agents will refrain from taking actions in violation of this and our related anti-corruption policies and procedures. Any such violation could have a material adverse effect on our business.

If our security systems and governance policies are breached, we may incur significant legal and financial exposure.

We have implemented security systems and governance policies with the intent of maintaining the physical security of our facilities and inventory and protecting our customers' and our suppliers' confidential information. Despite such efforts, we are subject to, and at times have suffered from, breach of these security systems and governance policies which have in the past and may in the future result in unauthorized access to our facilities and/or unauthorized use or theft of the inventory or information we are trying to protect. If unauthorized parties gain physical access to our inventory or if they gain electronic access to our information systems or if such information or inventory is used in an unauthorized manner, misdirected, lost or stolen during transmission or transport, any theft or misuse of such information or inventory could result in, among other things, unfavorable publicity, governmental inquiry and oversight, difficulty in marketing our services, allegations by our customers that we have not performed our contractual obligations, litigation by affected parties including our customers and possible financial obligations for damages related to the theft or misuse of such information or inventory, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our profitability and cash flow. We believe that we have adopted appropriate measures to mitigate potential risks to our technology and our operations from the breach of our security systems.

Compliance with government regulations regarding the use of "conflict minerals" may result in increased costs and risks to us.

As part of the Dodd-Frank Act, the SEC has promulgated disclosure requirements regarding the use of certain minerals, which are mined from the Democratic Republic of Congo and adjoining countries, known as conflict minerals. The disclosure rules will take effect for the Company in May 2014. We may have to publicly disclose whether the products we sell contain conflict minerals and could incur significant costs related to implementing a process that will meet the mandates of the Act. Additionally, customers rely on us to provide critical data regarding the products they purchase and will likely request conflict mineral information. Our materials sourcing is broad-based and multi-tiered, and we may not be able to easily verify the origins of the minerals used in the products we sell. We have many suppliers and each may provide conflict mineral information in a different manner, if at all. Accordingly, because the supply chain is complex, our reputation may suffer if we are unable to sufficiently verify the origins of conflict minerals, if any, used in its products. Additionally, customers may demand that the products they purchase be free of conflict minerals. The implementation of this requirement could affect the sourcing and availability of products we purchase from our suppliers. This may reduce the number of suppliers that may be able to provide conflict free products and may affect our ability to obtain products in sufficient quantities to meet customer demand or at competitive prices.

The Company is subject to taxes in numerous jurisdictions. The Company's future effective tax rates could be affected by changes in the mix of earnings in countries with differing statutory rates and changes in tax laws or their interpretation including changes related to tax holidays or tax incentives. Our taxes could increase if certain tax holidays or incentives are not renewed upon expiration, or if tax rates applicable to us in such jurisdictions are otherwise increased. For example, on March 16, 2007, the Chinese government passed a new unified enterprise income tax law which became effective on January 1, 2008. Among other things, the new law canceled many income tax incentives previously

applicable to our subsidiaries in China. Under the new law, the tax rates applicable to the operations of most of our subsidiaries in China have been increased to 25%. The new law provided a transition rule which increased the tax rate to 25% over a 5-year period, which ended in 2012. The new law also increased the standard withholding rate on earnings distributions to between 5% and 10% depending on the residence of the shareholder. The ultimate effect of these and other changes in Chinese tax laws on our overall tax rate will be affected by, among other things, our China income, the manner in which China interprets, implements and applies the new tax provisions, and our ability to qualify for any exceptions or new incentives. Similarly, we recently renewed a Malaysian tax holiday that expired on January 31, 2012 for another ten year period. Our continued ability to qualify for specific tax holiday extensions will depend on, among other things, our anticipated investment and expansion in these countries and the manner in which the local governments interpret the requirements for extensions or new incentives.

In addition, the Company and its subsidiaries are regularly subject to tax return audits and examinations by various taxing jurisdictions around the world. In determining the adequacy of our provision for income taxes, we regularly assess the likelihood of adverse outcomes resulting from tax examinations. While it is often difficult to predict the final outcome or the timing of the resolution of a tax examination, we believe that our reserves for uncertain tax benefits reflect the outcome of tax positions that are more likely than not to occur. However, we cannot assure you that the final determination of any tax examinations will not be materially different than that which is reflected in our income tax provisions and accruals. Should additional taxes be assessed as a result of a current or future examination, there could be a material adverse effect on our tax provision, operating results, financial position and cash flows in the period or periods for which that determination is made.

If our products or components contain defects, demand for our services may decline and we may be exposed to product liability and product warranty liability.

Defects in the products we manufacture or design, whether caused by a design, engineering, manufacturing or component failure or deficiencies in our manufacturing processes, could result in product or component failures, which may damage our business reputation and expose us to product liability or product warranty claims.

Product liability claims may include liability for personal injury or property damage. Product warranty claims may include liability to pay for the recall, repair or replacement of a product or component. Although we generally allocate liability for these claims in our contracts with our customers, increasingly we are unsuccessful in allocating such liability, and even where we have allocated liability to our customers, our customers may not have the resources to satisfy claims for costs or liabilities arising from a defective product or component for which they have assumed responsibility.

If we design, engineer or manufacture a product or component that is found to cause any personal injury or property damage or is otherwise found to be defective, we could spend a significant amount of money to resolve the claim. In addition, product liability and product recall insurance coverage are expensive and may not be available with respect to all of our services offerings on acceptable terms, in sufficient amounts, or at all. A successful product liability or product warranty claim in excess of our insurance coverage or any material claim for which insurance coverage is denied, limited or is not available could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

If we do not effectively manage changes in our operations, our business may be harmed; we have taken substantial restructuring charges in the past and we may need to take material restructuring charges in the future.

In recent years, we have experienced growth in our business through a combination of internal growth and acquisitions. However, our business also has been negatively impacted by the recent adverse global economic conditions. The expansion of our business, as well as business contractions and other changes in our customers' requirements, have in the past, and may in the future, require that we adjust our business and cost structures by incurring restructuring charges. Restructuring activities involve reductions in our workforce at some locations and closure of certain facilities. All of these changes have in the past placed, and may in the future place, considerable strain on our management control systems and resources, including decision support, accounting management, information systems and facilities. If we do not properly manage our financial and management controls, reporting systems and procedures to manage our employees, our business could be harmed.

In recent years, including during fiscal 2013, we undertook initiatives to restructure our business operations through a series of restructuring activities, which were intended to realign our global capacity and infrastructure with demand by our OEM customers and thereby improve our operational efficiency. These activities included reducing excess workforce and capacity, transitioning manufacturing to lower-cost locations and eliminating redundant facilities, and consolidating and eliminating certain administrative facilities.

While we incur severance, asset impairment charges and other facilities charges as a result of changes in our customer mix on an ongoing basis, such individual actions were not considered material to be separately disclosed as restructuring charges in fiscal year 2012 and 2011, and are included in either cost of sales or selling, general and administrative expenses, as appropriate. Our restructuring activities undertaken during fiscal 2013 have been disclosed separately on our statement of operations due to the significant nature of such activities. We may be required to take additional charges in the future to align our operations and cost structures with global economic conditions, market demands, cost competitiveness, and our geographic footprint as it relates to our customers' production requirements. We may consolidate certain manufacturing facilities or transfer certain of our operations to lower cost geographies. If we are required to take additional restructuring charges in the future, our operating results, financial condition, and cash flows could be adversely impacted. Additionally, there are other potential risks associated with our restructurings that could adversely affect us, such as delays encountered with the finalization and implementation of the restructuring activities, work stoppages, and the failure to achieve targeted cost savings.

The success of certain of our activities depends on our ability to protect our intellectual property rights; intellectual property infringement claims against our customers or us could harm our business.

We retain certain intellectual property rights to some of the technologies that we develop as part of our engineering, design and manufacturing services and components offerings. The measures we have taken to prevent unauthorized use of our technology may not be successful. If we are unable to protect our intellectual property rights, this could reduce or eliminate the competitive advantages of our proprietary technology, which would harm our business.

Our engineering, design and manufacturing services and components offerings involve the creation and use of intellectual property rights, which subject us to the risk of claims of intellectual property infringement from third parties, as well as claims arising from the allocation of intellectual property rights among us and our customers. In addition, our customers are increasingly requiring us to indemnify them against the risk of intellectual property infringement. If any claims are brought against us or our customers for such infringement, whether or not these have merit, we could be required to expend significant resources in defense of such claims. In the event of such an infringement claim, we

may be required to spend a significant amount of money to develop non-infringing alternatives or obtain licenses. We may not be successful in developing such alternatives or obtaining such licenses on reasonable terms or at all.

Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates could increase our operating costs.

Our manufacturing operations and industrial parks are located in lower cost regions of the world, such as Asia, Eastern Europe and Mexico; however, most of our purchase and sale transactions are denominated in United States dollars, Japanese yen or Euros. As a result, we are exposed to fluctuations in the functional currencies of our fixed cost overhead or our supply base relative to the currencies in which we conduct transactions.

Currency exchange rates fluctuate on a daily basis as a result of a number of factors, including changes in a country's political and economic policies. Volatility in the functional and non-functional currencies of our entities and the United States dollar could seriously harm our business, operating results and financial condition. The primary impact of currency exchange fluctuations is on the cash, receivables, and payables of our operating entities. As part of our currency hedging strategy, we use financial instruments, primarily forward exchange and swap contracts, to hedge our United States dollar and other currency commitments in order to reduce the short-term impact of foreign currency fluctuations on current assets and liabilities. If our hedging activities are not successful or if we change or reduce these hedging activities in the future, we may experience significant unexpected expenses from fluctuations in exchange rates.

We are also exposed to risks related to the valuation of the Chinese currency relative to other foreign currencies. The Chinese currency is the renminbi ("RMB"). A significant increase in the value of the RMB could adversely affect our financial results and cash flows by increasing both our manufacturing costs and the costs of our local supply base.

Our success depends to a large extent upon the continued services of our executive officers. Generally our employees are not bound by employment or non-competition agreements, and we cannot assure you that we will retain our executive officers and other key employees. We could be seriously harmed by the loss of any of our executive officers or other key employees. We will need to recruit and retain skilled management personnel, and if we are not able to do so, our business could be harmed. In addition, in connection with expanding our design services offerings, we must attract and retain experienced design engineers. There is substantial competition in our industry for highly skilled employees. Our failure to recruit and retain experienced design engineers could limit the growth of our design services offerings, which could adversely affect our business.

Our failure to comply with environmental laws could adversely affect our business.

We are subject to various federal, state, local and foreign environmental laws and regulations, including regulations governing the use, storage, discharge and disposal of hazardous substances used in our manufacturing processes. We are also subject to laws and regulations governing the recyclability of products, the materials that may be included in products, and our obligations to dispose of these products after end users have finished with them. Additionally, we may be exposed to liability to our customers relating to the materials that may be included in the components that we procure for our customers' products. Any violation or alleged violation by us of environmental laws could subject us to significant costs, fines or other penalties.

We are also required to comply with an increasing number of global and local product environmental compliance regulations focused on the restriction of certain hazardous substances. We are subject to the EU directives, including the Restrictions on RoHS, the WEEE as well as the EU's

REACH regulation. In addition, new technical classifications of e-Waste being discussed in the Basel Convention technical working group could affect both our customers abilities and obligations in electronics repair and refurbishment. Also of note is China's Management Methods for Controlling Pollution Caused by EIPs regulation, commonly referred to as "China RoHS", which restricts the importation into and production within China of electrical equipment containing certain hazardous materials. Similar legislation has been or may be enacted in other jurisdictions, including in the United States. RoHS and other similar legislation bans or restricts the use of lead, mercury and certain other specified substances in electronics products and WEEE requires EU importers and/or producers to assume responsibility for the collection, recycling and management of waste electronic products and components. We have developed rigorous risk mitigating compliance programs designed to meet the needs of our customers as well as applicable regulations. These programs may include collecting compliance data from our suppliers, full laboratory testing and public reporting of other environmental metrics such as carbon emissions, electronic waste and water, and we also require our supply chain to comply. Non-compliance could potentially result in significant costs and/or penalties. In the case of WEEE, the compliance responsibility rests primarily with the EU importers and/or producers rather than with EMS companies. However, OEMs may turn to EMS companies for assistance in meeting their obligations under WEEE.

In addition, we are responsible for cleanup of contamination at some of our current and former manufacturing facilities and at some third party sites. If more stringent compliance or cleanup standards under environmental laws or regulations are imposed, or the results of future testing and analyses at our current or former operating facilities indicate that we are responsible for the release of hazardous substances into the air, ground and/or water, we may be subject to additional liability. Additional environmental matters may arise in the future at sites where no problem is currently known or at sites that we may acquire in the future. Our failure to comply with environmental laws and regulations or adequately address contaminated sites could limit our ability to expand our facilities or could require us to incur significant expenses, which would harm our business.

We may encounter difficulties with acquisitions, which could harm our business.

We have completed numerous acquisitions of businesses and we may acquire additional businesses in the future. Any future acquisitions may require additional equity financing, which could be dilutive to our existing shareholders, or additional debt financing, which could increase our leverage and potentially affect our credit ratings. Any downgrades in our credit ratings associated with an acquisition could adversely affect our ability to borrow by resulting in more restrictive borrowing terms. As a result of the foregoing, we also may not be able to complete acquisitions or strategic customer transactions in the future to the same extent as in the past, or at all.

To integrate acquired businesses, we must implement our management information systems, operating systems and internal controls, and assimilate and manage the personnel of the acquired operations. The difficulties of this integration may be further complicated by geographic distances. The integration of acquired businesses may not be successful and could result in disruption to other parts of our business. In addition, the integration of acquired businesses may require that we incur significant restructuring charges.

These and other factors have harmed, and in the future could harm, our ability to achieve anticipated levels of profitability at acquired operations or realize other anticipated benefits of an acquisition, and could adversely affect our business and operating results.

In the past, we have completed numerous strategic transactions with OEM customers. Under these arrangements, we generally acquire inventory, equipment and other assets from the OEM, and lease or acquire their manufacturing facilities, while simultaneously entering into multi-year manufacturing and supply agreements for the production of their products. We may pursue these OEM divestiture transactions in the future. These arrangements entered into with divesting OEMs typically involve many risks, including the following:

As a result of these and other risks, we have been, and in the future may be, unable to achieve anticipated levels of profitability under these arrangements. In addition, these strategic arrangements have not, and in the future may not, result in any material revenues or contribute positively to our earnings per share.

Our business and operations could be adversely impacted by climate change initiatives.

Concern over climate change has led to international legislative and regulatory initiatives directed at limiting carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gas emissions. Proposed and existing efforts to address climate change by reducing greenhouse gas emissions could directly or indirectly affect our costs of energy, materials, manufacturing, distribution, packaging and other operating costs, which could impact our business and financial results.

Two of our significant end markets are the mobile devices market and the consumer devices market. These markets exhibit particular strength in the two quarters leading up to the end of the

calendar year in connection with the holiday season. As a result, we have historically experienced stronger revenues in our second and third fiscal quarters as compared to our other fiscal quarters. Economic or other factors leading to diminished orders in the end of the calendar year could harm our business.

As of March 31, 2013, our total debt was approximately $2.1 billion. This level of indebtedness could limit our flexibility as a result of debt service requirements and restrictive covenants, and may limit our ability to access additional capital or execute our business strategy.

Changes in our credit rating may make it more expensive for us to raise additional capital or to borrow additional funds.

Our credit is rated by credit rating agencies. Our 4.625% Notes and our 5.000% Notes are currently rated BB+ by Standard and Poor's ("S&P") and Ba1 by Moody's, and are considered to be below "investment grade" debt by Moody's and S&P. Any further decline in our credit rating may make it more expensive for us to raise additional capital in the future on terms that are acceptable to us, if at all; negatively impact the price of our common stock; increase our interest payments under some of our existing debt agreements; and have other negative implications on our business, many of which are beyond our control. In addition, the interest rate payable on some of our credit facilities is subject to adjustment from time to time if our credit ratings change. Thus, any potential future negative change in our credit rating may increase the interest rate payable on these credit facilities.

Weak global economic conditions and instability in financial markets may adversely affect our business, results of operations, financial condition and access to capital markets.

Our revenue and gross margin depend significantly on general economic conditions and the demand for products in the markets in which our customers compete. Recent adverse worldwide economic conditions, including the European sovereign debt crisis, have created challenging conditions in the electronics industry. These conditions have resulted in reduced consumer and business confidence and spending in many countries, a tightening in the credit markets, a low level of liquidity in many financial markets and high volatility in credit, fixed income and equity markets. A continuation or worsening of the European sovereign debt crisis will likely have a negative effect on certain of our European customers and suppliers, which could harm our business. In addition, longer term disruptions in the capital and credit markets could adversely affect our access to liquidity needed for our business. If financial institutions that have extended credit commitments to us are adversely affected by the conditions of the U.S. and international capital markets, they may become unable to fund borrowings under their credit commitments to us, which could have an adverse impact on our financial condition and our ability to borrow additional funds, if needed, for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions, research and development and other corporate purposes.

The stock market in recent years has experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that have affected the market prices of companies, including technology companies. These fluctuations have often been unrelated to or disproportionately impacted by the operating performance of these companies. The market for our ordinary shares has been and may in the future be subject to similar volatility. Factors such as fluctuations in our operating results, announcements of technological innovations or events affecting other companies in the electronics industry, currency fluctuations, general market fluctuations, and macro-economic conditions may cause the market price of our ordinary shares to decline.

The Company's goodwill and identifiable intangible assets could become impaired, which could reduce the value of its assets and reduce its net income in the year in which the write-off occurs.

Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of an acquisition over the fair value of the assets acquired. The Company also ascribes value to certain identifiable intangible assets, which consist primarily of customer relationships and trade names, among others, as a result of acquisitions. The Company may incur impairment charges on goodwill or identifiable intangible assets if it determines that the fair values of goodwill or identifiable intangible assets are less than their current carrying values. The Company evaluates, on a regular basis, whether events or circumstances have occurred that indicate all, or a portion, of the carrying amount of goodwill may no longer be recoverable, in which case an impairment charge to earnings would become necessary.

Refer to Notes 1 and 2 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements and 'critical accounting policies' in management's discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations for further discussion of the impairment testing of goodwill and identifiable intangible assets.

A decline in general economic conditions or global equity valuations could impact the judgments and assumptions about the fair value of the Company's businesses and the Company could be required to record impairment charges on its goodwill or other identifiable intangible assets in the future, which could impact the Company's consolidated balance sheet, as well as the Company's consolidated statement of operations. If the Company was required to recognize an impairment charge in the future, the charge would not impact the Company's consolidated cash flows, current liquidity, capital resources, and covenants under its existing credit facilities, asset securitization program, and other outstanding borrowings.

Failure to comply with domestic or international employment and related laws could result in the payment of significant damages, which would reduce our net income.

We are subject to a variety of domestic and foreign employment laws, including those related to safety, wages and overtime, discrimination, whistle-blowing, classification of employees and severance payments. Enforcement activity relating to these laws, particularly outside of the United States, can increase as a result of increased media attention due to violations by other companies, changes in law, political and other factors. There can be no assurance that we won't be found to have violated such laws in the future, due to a more aggressive enforcement posture by governmental authorities or for any other reason. Any such violations could lead to the assessment of fines against us by federal, state or foreign regulatory authorities or damages payable to employees, which fines could be substantial and which would reduce our net income.

Our facilities consist of a global network of industrial parks, regional manufacturing operations, and design, engineering and product introduction centers, providing over 27.6 million square feet of productive capacity as of March 31, 2013. We own facilities with approximately 8.7 million square feet in Asia, 4.4 million square feet in the Americas and 2.4 million square feet in Europe. We lease facilities with approximately 6.6 million square feet in Asia, 3.3 million square feet in the Americas and 2.2 million square feet in Europe.

Our facilities include large industrial parks, ranging in size from under 100,000 to 4.1 million square feet in Brazil, China, Hungary, Indonesia, Israel, Malaysia, Mexico, Poland, Romania, Slovakia,

and Ukraine. We also have regional manufacturing operations, generally ranging in size from under 100,000 to approximately 2.7 million square feet in Austria, Brazil, Canada, China, Denmark, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Hungary, India, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, Mexico, Norway, Singapore, Sweden, Ukraine and the United States. We also have smaller design and engineering centers and product introduction centers at a number of locations in the world's major electronics markets.

Our facilities are well maintained and suitable for the operations conducted. The productive capacity of our plants is adequate for current needs.

From time to time, we are subject to legal proceedings, claims, and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. We defend ourselves vigorously against any such claims. Although the outcome of these matters is currently not determinable, management expects that any losses that are probable or reasonably possible of being incurred as a result of these matters, which are in excess of amounts already accrued in its consolidated balance sheets would not be material to the financial statements as a whole.

COMPARISON OF 5 YEAR CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURN
Flextronics, the S&P 500 Index, and Peer Group

The following table provides information regarding purchases of our ordinary shares made by us for the period from January 1, 2013 through March 31, 2013.

Dividends. Singapore does not impose a withholding tax on dividends. All dividends are tax exempt to shareholders.

Gains on Disposal. Under current Singapore tax law there is no tax on capital gains, thus any profits from the disposal of shares are not taxable in Singapore unless the gains arising from the disposal of shares are income in nature and subject to tax, especially if they arise from activities which the Inland Revenue Authority of Singapore regards as the carrying on of a trade or business in Singapore (in which case, the profits on the sale would be taxable as trade profits rather than capital gains).

Shareholders who apply, or who are required to apply, the Singapore Financial Reporting Standard 39 Financial Instruments—Recognition and Measurement ("FRS 39") for the purposes of Singapore income tax may be required to recognize gains or losses (not being gains or losses in the nature of capital) in accordance with the provisions of FRS 39 (as modified by the applicable provisions of Singapore income tax law) even though no sale or disposal of shares is made.

Stamp Duty. There is no stamp duty payable for holding shares, and no duty is payable on the acquisition of newly-issued shares. When existing shares are acquired in Singapore, a stamp duty is payable on the instrument of transfer of the shares at the rate of two Singapore dollars ("S$") for every S$1,000 of the market value of the shares. The stamp duty is borne by the purchaser unless there is an agreement to the contrary. If the instrument of transfer is executed outside of Singapore, the stamp duty must be paid only if the instrument of transfer is received in Singapore.

Estate Taxation. The estate duty was abolished for deaths occurring on or after February 15, 2008. For deaths prior to February 15, 2008 the following rules apply:

If an individual who is not domiciled in Singapore dies on or after January 1, 2002, no estate tax is payable in Singapore on any of our shares held by the individual.

If property passing upon the death of an individual domiciled in Singapore includes our shares, Singapore estate duty is payable to the extent that the value of the shares aggregated with any other assets subject to Singapore estate duty exceeds S$600,000. Unless other exemptions apply to the other assets, for example, the separate exemption limit for residential properties, any excess beyond S$600,000 will be taxed at 5% on the first S$12,000,000 of the individual's chargeable assets and thereafter at 10%.

An individual shareholder who is a U.S. citizen or resident (for U.S. estate tax purposes) will have the value of the shares included in the individual's gross estate for U.S. estate tax purposes. An individual shareholder generally will be entitled to a tax credit against the shareholder's U.S. estate tax to the extent the individual shareholder actually pays Singapore estate tax on the value of the shares; however, such tax credit is generally limited to the percentage of the U.S. estate tax attributable to the inclusion of the value of the shares included in the shareholder's gross estate for U.S. estate tax purposes, adjusted further by a pro rata apportionment of available exemptions. Individuals who are domiciled in Singapore should consult their own tax advisors regarding the Singapore estate tax consequences of their investment.

Tax Treaties Regarding Withholding. There is no reciprocal income tax treaty between the U.S. and Singapore regarding withholding taxes on dividends and capital gains.

These historical results are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected in the future.

Restructuring charges incurred during fiscal years 2013, 2010 and 2009 were primarily intended to rationalize the Company's global manufacturing capacity and infrastructure in response to weakened macro-economic conditions and decline in demand from our OEM customers.

(3)

The Company recognized a charge to impair goodwill as a result of a significant decline in its share value driven by weakened macro-economic conditions that contributed to a decrease in market multiples and estimated discounted cash flows. Total goodwill impairment charges was $5.9 billion, of which $0.1 billion is included in loss from discontinued operations.

(4)

The net other income in the fiscal year 2013 includes the fair value change in warrants to purchase common shares of a certain supplier and loss on sale of two investments.

The net other income in the fiscal year 2012, relates to the gain on sale of certain international entities.

During fiscal year 2011, the Company recognized a $13.2 million loss associated with the early redemption of the 6.25% Senior Subordinated Notes and an $11.7 million loss in connection with the divestiture of certain international entities. Additionally, the Company recognized a gain of $18.6 million associated with a sale of an equity investment that was previously fully impaired.

The Company recognized charges of $199.4 million and $111.5 million in fiscal years 2010 and 2009, respectively, for the loss on disposition, other-than-temporary impairment and other related charges on its investments in, and notes receivable from, certain non-publicly traded companies. In fiscal year 2009, the Company recognized a net gain of $22.3 million upon the partial extinguishment of debt.

(5)

During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2012, the Company identified certain accounting errors in the statutory-to-U.S. GAAP adjustments at one of its foreign sites that originated in prior annual periods. Management conducted additional procedures and concluded that these errors were isolated to that location. These errors, which primarily understated cost of sales, totaled $10.4 million, $8.0 million and $6.5 million for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009 respectively, and were corrected by the Company as an out-of-period adjustment in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2012. Management believes the impact of this item, to the fiscal year ended March 31, 2012 and to prior fiscal years presented was not material. As a result of recording these adjustments in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2012, net income for the year ended March 31, 2012 was reduced by $24.9 million ($0.03 per share).

We are a leading global supply chain solutions provider, offering advanced design, manufacturing and logistics and after-sales services to OEMs of a broad range of electronics products in the following markets: High Reliability Solutions ("HRS"), which is comprised of our medical, automotive, and defense and aerospace businesses; High Velocity Solutions ("HVS"), which includes our mobile devices business, including smart phones, and consumer electronics, including game consoles, high-volume computing business, including notebook personal computing ("PC"), tablets and printers; Industrial and Emerging Industries ("IEI"), which is comprised of large household appliances, equipment, and our emerging industries businesses; and Integrated Network Solutions ("INS"), which includes our telecommunications infrastructure, data networking, connected home, and server and storage businesses.

Our strategy is to provide customers with a full range of cost competitive, vertically-integrated global supply chain services through which the we can design, build, ship and service a complete packaged product for our OEM customers. This enables our OEM customers to leverage our services to meet their product requirements throughout the entire product life cycle.

Historically, our industry experienced significant change and growth as an increasing number of companies elected to outsource some or all of their design and manufacturing requirements. We have seen an increase in the penetration of the global OEM manufacturing requirements since the 2001 - 2002 technology downturn as more and more OEMs pursued the benefits of outsourcing rather than internal manufacturing. Due to the global economic crisis, which began in late calendar year 2007 and continued through the end of our fiscal year 2010, many of our OEM customers reduced their manufacturing and supply chain outsourcing which negatively impacted our business. During our fiscal year 2011, we began seeing some positive signs that demand for our OEM customers' end products was improving, and this trend continued through the end of our 2013 fiscal year. However, our revenues in fiscal 2013 declined primarily as a result of our exit from the high volume and low margin ("ODM") PC business, which we fully exited by the end of fiscal 2012, and from a reduction of concentration of business with a well known smart phone OEM.

We use a portfolio management approach to manage our extensive service offerings. As our OEM customers change in the way they go to market, we reorganize and rebalance our business portfolio in order to align with our customers' needs and requirements and to optimize our operating results. As part of our portfolio management strategy, we have decreased the percentage of our revenue from our

lower margin HVS businesses by exiting our ODM PC business in fiscal 2012 and assembly disengagement with a well known smart phone OEM in fiscal 2013. Over the past few years, we have experienced increased revenue in our more complex and higher margin business groups (HRS, IEI, and INS) together with new business opportunities. Although our recent acquisition of certain manufacturing operations from Google's Motorola Mobility LLC is expected to increase the percentage of our revenues from the HVS market in fiscal year 2014 and beyond, we do not expect the percentage of revenues from our HVS business to approach the concentration experienced in fiscal year 2011 and prior. The objective of our operating model is to allow us to redeploy and reposition our assets and resources to meet specific customer needs across all of the markets we serve, and we have been able to successfully reposition HVS assets and capacity to serve our customers in other business groups as required which illustrates the overall flexibility of our model.

We are one of the world's largest manufacturing service providers, with revenues of $23.6 billion in fiscal year 2013. We have established an extensive network of manufacturing facilities in the world's major electronics markets (Asia, the Americas and Europe) in order to serve the growing outsourcing needs of both multinational and regional OEMs. We design, build, ship, and service electronics products for our customers through a network of facilities in over 30 countries across four continents. As of March 31, 2013, our total manufacturing capacity was approximately 27.6 million square feet. In fiscal year 2013, our net sales in Asia, the Americas and Europe represented approximately 50%, 31% and 19%, respectively, of our total net sales, based on the location of the manufacturing site. The following tables set forth net sales and net property and equipment, by country, based on the location of our manufacturing sites and the relative percentages:

	Fiscal Year Ended March 31,

Net sales:	2013				2012				2011

We believe that the combination of our extensive design and engineering services, significant scale and global presence, end-to-end services, advanced supply chain management, industrial campuses in low-cost geographic areas and operational track record provide us with a competitive advantage in the market for designing, manufacturing and servicing electronics products for leading multinational and regional OEMs. Through these services and facilities, we offer our OEM customers the ability to

simplify their global product development, manufacturing process, and after sales services, and enable them to achieve meaningful time to market and cost savings.

Our operating results are affected by a number of factors, including the following:

Net revenues for fiscal year 2013 decreased 19.7% or $5.8 billion to $23.6 billion. This decline was primarily attributable to the disengagement of our assembly activities with a well known smart phone OEM and the exit of our ODM PC business, which resulted in decreases of approximately $2.2 billion and $1.6 billion, respectively. Our revenue deteriorated in all the major markets we serve except for HRS. By the end of fiscal year 2013, we continued to strive to maintain a competitive position driven in part by the success in our diversified business model. Our fiscal year 2013 gross profit totaled $1.2 billion, representing a decrease of $351.7 million, or 23.2%, compared to fiscal year 2012 primarily due to restructuring charges amounting to $215.8 million included in cost of sales in fiscal year 2013. Our income from continuing operations of $302.5 million was lower than the $520.8 million realized in fiscal year 2012 primarily due to restructuring charges incurred in fiscal 2013.

Cash provided by operations increased approximately $311.2 million to $1.1 billion for fiscal year 2013 compared with $804.3 million for fiscal year 2012 primarily due to changes in operating assets and liabilities, net of acquisitions which decreased $315.9 million in fiscal year 2013 primarily as a result of a decrease in accounts receivable and inventory, offset by a decrease in accounts payable and other current and noncurrent liabilities. Our average net working capital, defined as accounts receivable plus the deferred purchase price receivable from our asset-backed securitization programs plus inventory less accounts payable, as a percentage of annual sales was approximately 7.8%, 6.2% and 4.5% for the years ended March 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The increase in the percentage for the year ended March 31, 2013 is primarily attributable to lower revenue from our HVS business as a result of our exit of our ODM PC business, which historically carries significantly higher inventory turns and customers with contractually faster payment terms, offset by lower accounts receivable, deferred purchase price receivables and inventories in fiscal year 2013. Our free cash flow, which we define as cash from operating activities less net purchases of property and equipment, was $680.1 million for fiscal year 2013 compared to $416.3 million for fiscal year 2012, primarily due to higher cash flows from operations partially off-set by higher capital expenditures. Refer to the Liquidity and Capital Resources section for the free cash flows reconciliation to our most direct comparable GAAP financial measure of

cash flows from operations. Cash used in financing activities amounted to $339.6 million during fiscal year 2013 and included repurchases of approximately 49.9 million ordinary shares at an aggregate purchase value of $322.0 million. As of March 31, 2013, $12.0 million was included in accrued expenses for approximately 1.8 million ordinary shares that were not settled in fiscal year 2013.

Throughout fiscal year 2013, we continued to further transform our business as we exited certain non-core businesses and executed certain restructuring activities to consolidate and rationalize our global manufacturing capacity and infrastructure. During fiscal year 2013, we finalized the sale of two of our non-core businesses and received proceeds from these sales amounting to $22.6 million, net of $1.0 million of cash sold. The results of operations and financial position of the divested businesses are reported as discontinued operations for all periods presented and include a $17.0 million charge in fiscal 2012 for the impairment of fixed assets and $10.0 million charge for impairment of customer-related intangible assets in fiscal 2013.

Additionally, in response to a challenging macroeconomic environment, we initiated certain restructuring activities in fiscal 2013 intended to improve our operational efficiencies by reducing excess workforce and capacity. The restructuring activities are intended to rationalize our global manufacturing capacity and infrastructure and will result in a further shift of manufacturing capacity to locations with higher efficiencies. During the year ended March 31, 2013, we recognized $227.4 million of pre-tax restructuring charges comprised of $123.0 million of cash charges predominantly related to employee severance costs and $104.4 million of non-cash charges primarily related to asset impairment and other exit charges. We expect to recognize an additional $40.0 million in pre-tax restructuring charges in our first quarter of fiscal 2014, comprised primarily of cash charges associated with employee termination costs to be classified as a component of cost of sales.

We believe that our business transformation has strategically positioned us very well to take advantage of the long-term, future growth prospects for outsourcing of advanced manufacturing capabilities, design and engineering services and after-market services, which remain strong.

We believe the following critical accounting policies affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. For further discussion of our significant accounting policies, refer to note 2 of the notes to consolidated financial statements in Item 8, "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data."

We recognize manufacturing revenue when we ship goods or the goods are received by our customer, title and risk of ownership have passed, the price to the buyer is fixed or determinable and recoverability is reasonably assured. Generally, there are no substantive customer acceptance requirements or further obligations related to manufacturing services. If such requirements or obligations exist, then we recognize the related revenues at the time when such requirements are completed and the obligations are fulfilled. We make provisions for estimated sales returns and other adjustments at the time revenue is recognized based upon contractual terms and an analysis of historical returns. These provisions were not material to our consolidated financial statements for any of the periods presented.

We provide a comprehensive suite of services for our customers that range from contract design services to manufacturing and logistics to repair services. We recognize service revenue when the services have been performed, and the related costs are expensed as incurred. Our net sales for services were less than 10% of our total sales for all periods presented, and accordingly, are included in net sales in the consolidated statements of operations.

We have an established customer credit policy through which we manage customer credit exposures through credit evaluations, credit limit setting, monitoring, and enforcement of credit limits for new and existing customers. We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers' financial condition and make provisions for doubtful accounts based on the outcome of those credit evaluations. We evaluate the collectability of accounts receivable based on specific customer circumstances, current economic trends, and the age of past due receivables. To the extent we identify exposures as a result of credit or customer evaluations, we also review other customer related exposures, including but not limited to inventory and related contractual obligations. For example, subsequent to fiscal year 2012 and prior to issuance of our financial statements, the Company became aware that one of its customers in the concentrated solar photovoltaic market was experiencing significant financial and liquidity difficulties. Based on an evaluation of this customer's specific circumstances, the Company determined that its best estimate was that all accounts receivable and inventory related to this customer were unrecoverable and recorded a charge of $32.0 million as of March 31, 2012.

We recognize restructuring charges related to our plans to close or consolidate duplicate manufacturing and administrative facilities. In connection with these activities, we recognize restructuring charges for employee termination costs, long-lived asset impairment and other exit-related costs.

The recognition of these restructuring charges requires that we make certain judgments and estimates regarding the nature, timing and amount of costs associated with the planned exit activity. To the extent our actual results in exiting these facilities differ from our estimates and assumptions, we may be required to revise the estimates of future liabilities, requiring the recognition of additional restructuring charges or the reduction of liabilities already recognized. At the end of each reporting period, we evaluate the remaining accrued balances to ensure that no excess accruals are retained and the utilization of the provisions are for their intended purpose in accordance with developed exit plans.

Refer to note 12 of the notes to consolidated financial statements in Item 8, "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" for further discussion of our restructuring activities.

We review property and equipment and acquired amortizable intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount of these long-lived assets exceeds their fair value. Recoverability of property and equipment and acquired amortizable intangible assets are measured by comparing their carrying amount to the projected cash flows the assets are expected to generate. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment loss recognized, if any, is the amount by which the carrying amount of the property and equipment and acquired amortizable intangible assets exceeds fair value.

Goodwill is tested for impairment on an annual basis, and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of goodwill may not be recoverable. Recoverability of goodwill is measured at the reporting unit level by comparing the reporting unit's carrying amount,

including goodwill, to the fair value of the reporting unit, which is measured based upon, among other factors, market multiples for comparable companies as well as a discounted cash flow analysis. We have one reporting unit: EMS. If the recorded value of the assets, including goodwill, and liabilities ("net book value") of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss may be required to be recognized. Further, to the extent the net book value of the Company as a whole is greater than its fair value in the aggregate, all, or a significant portion of its goodwill may be considered impaired.

Our inventories are stated at the lower of cost (on a first-in, first-out basis) or market value. Our industry is characterized by rapid technological change, short-term customer commitments and rapid changes in demand. We purchase our inventory based on forecasted demand, and we estimate write downs for excess and obsolete inventory based on our regular reviews of inventory quantities on hand, and the latest forecasts of product demand and production requirements from our customers. If actual market conditions or our customers' product demands are less favorable than those projected, additional provisions may be required. In addition, unanticipated changes in the liquidity or financial position of our customers and/or changes in economic conditions may require additional write downs for inventories due to our customers' inability to fulfill their contractual obligations with regard to inventory procured to fulfill customer demand.

Our deferred income tax assets represent temporary differences between the carrying amount and the tax basis of existing assets and liabilities which will result in deductible amounts in future years, including net operating loss carry forwards. Based on estimates, the carrying value of our net deferred tax assets assumes that it is more likely than not that we will be able to generate sufficient future taxable income in certain tax jurisdictions to realize these deferred income tax assets. Our judgments regarding future profitability may change due to future market conditions, changes in U.S. or international tax laws and other factors. If these estimates and related assumptions change in the future, we may be required to increase or decrease our valuation allowance against deferred tax assets previously recognized, resulting in additional or lesser income tax expense.

We are regularly subject to tax return audits and examinations by various taxing jurisdictions and around the world, and there can be no assurance that the final determination of any tax examinations will not be materially different than that which is reflected in our income tax provisions and accruals. Should additional taxes be assessed as a result of a current or future examination, there could be a material adverse effect on our tax position, operating results, financial position and cash flows. Refer to note 11 of the notes to consolidated financial statements in Item 8, "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" for further discussion of our tax position.

The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, certain statements of operations data expressed as a percentage of net sales. The financial information and the discussion below should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in Item 8, "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data." The data below, and discussion that follows, represents our results from operations.

During fiscal year 2013, the Company finalized the sale of two of its non-core businesses. Total proceeds received from these sales amounted to $22.6 million, net of $1.0 million of cash sold. The

Company recognized a loss on sale of $12.1 million, which is included in interest and other expenses (income), net within the results from discontinued operations.

Net sales during fiscal year 2013 totaled $23.6 billion, representing a decrease of $5.8 billion, or 19.7%, from $29.3 billion during fiscal year 2012. Sales during fiscal year 2013 decreased across all of the markets we serve except for HRS consisting of decreases of: (i) $5.3 billion or 46.2% in the HVS market, (ii) $0.7 billion or 6.5% in the INS market and (iii) $0.2 billion or 3.9% in the IEI market. The decline in sales was primarily due to a decrease in the HVS market as a result of reduction in revenues due to our disengagement from our assembly business with a well known smart phone OEM customers, which resulted in an approximately $2.2 billion reduction of sales and our exit from the ODM PC business during fiscal 2012, which resulted in an approximately $1.6 billion reduction of sales. The remainder of the decrease across the other markets was attributable to reduced demand during fiscal year 2013. The decrease in these markets was partially offset by increase in sales from our HRS market group amounting to $0.5 billion or 19.5%, primarily due to increased demand for our customer products in the automotive market and to a lesser extent from our acquisition of Saturn Electronics and Engineering, Inc. in December 2012. Net sales decreased across all of the geographical regions we serve, consisting of decreases of $3.7 billion in Asia, $1.2 billion in the Americas and $0.9 billion in Europe.

Net sales during fiscal year 2012 totaled $29.3 billion, representing an increase of $0.9 billion, or 3.2%, from $28.4 billion during fiscal year 2011. Sales during fiscal year 2012 increased across all of the markets we serve except for HVS, consisting of increases of: (i) $0.7 billion or 6.2% in the INS market, (ii) $0.5 billion or 24.2% in the HRS market, and (iii) $0.1 billion or 3.3% in the IEI market. The increase in sales for our INS market was driven by new program wins with existing customers with products in enterprise data networking and telecommunications infrastructure markets, offset by declining demand from certain customer programs in the server market due to the end of the product life cycles or which transitioned to another supplier. The increase in sales for our HRS market was driven primarily from new wins and programs with our larger customers in the automotive, medical equipment and drug delivery markets. The increase in sales for our IEI market was due to new customer wins and new programs with existing customers across this business group, primarily with

customers serving the clean tech markets, offset by reduced demand from our customers serving the capital equipment markets. The increase in net sales for these markets was offset by a $0.4 billion or 3.0% decrease in sales in the HVS market due to a decrease in sales of mobile handsets to one of our significant customers, partially offset by an increase in sales through the first nine months of fiscal year 2012 to another significant customer in the ODM personal computing business which we exited in the third quarter of fiscal year 2012. Net sales increased across all of the geographical regions we serve, consisting of increases of $0.8 billion in Asia, $0.1 billion in the Americas and an insignificant increase in Europe.

The following table sets forth net sales by market and their relative percentages:

Our ten largest customers during fiscal years 2013, 2012 and 2011 accounted for approximately 47%, 55% and 52% of net sales, respectively. No customer accounted for greater than 10% of our net sales during fiscal year 2013. During fiscal year 2012 Hewlett-Packard (HP) and Research In Motion (RIM) each accounted for greater than 10% of net sales and during fiscal year 2011, RIM accounted for greater than 10% of net sales.

Gross profit is affected by a number of factors, including the number and size of new manufacturing programs, product mix, component costs and availability, product life cycles, unit volumes, pricing, competition, new product introductions, capacity utilization and the expansion and consolidation of manufacturing facilities. The flexible design of our manufacturing processes allows us to build a broad range of products in our facilities and better utilize our manufacturing capacity. In the cases of new programs, profitability normally lags revenue growth due to product start-up costs, lower manufacturing program volumes in the start-up phase, operational inefficiencies, and under-absorbed overhead. Gross margin for these programs often improves over time as manufacturing volumes increase, as our utilization rates and overhead absorption improve, and as we increase the level of manufacturing services content. As a result of these various factors, our gross margin varies from period to period.

Gross profit during fiscal year 2013 decreased $351.7 million to $1.2 billion from $1.5 billion during fiscal year 2012. Gross margin decreased to 4.9% of net sales in fiscal year 2013 as compared with 5.2% of net sales in fiscal year 2012. Gross margins deteriorated 30 basis points in fiscal year 2013 compared to that of fiscal year 2012 primarily due to restructuring charges amounting to $215.8 million, or 90 basis points, included in cost of sales. The impact of the restructuring charges was partially offset by lower sales from our HVS market which generally carry lower margins than the overall margins on our other complex business groups, and the $23.9 million accounting correction recognized in fiscal 2012 as discussed below.

Gross profit during fiscal year 2012 decreased $65.4 million to $1.5 billion from $1.6 billion during fiscal year 2011. Gross margin decreased to 5.2% of net sales in fiscal year 2012 as compared with 5.6% of net sales in fiscal year 2011. The decreases in gross profit and gross margin were primarily attributable to a higher mix of low-margin products principally associated with the increase in sales of

products in the ODM personal computing business during the first nine months of fiscal year 2012, which are included in the HVS market which we exited in the third quarter of fiscal year 2012. These businesses sustained gross losses of approximately $38.2 million in fiscal year 2012. Fiscal year 2012 cost of sales also includes the impact of adjustments made to correct certain accounting errors identified and recorded as out of period adjustments during the fourth quarter of fiscal year. These out-of period adjustments amounted to approximately $23.9 million and resulted in increased cost of sales in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2012. In addition, gross margins were negatively impacted by unfavorable manufacturing costs associated with the exit of our ODM related businesses and costs incurred for right-sizing activities at various locations.

In response to a challenging macroeconomic environment, we initiated certain restructuring activities to improve our operational efficiencies by reducing excess workforce and capacity. The restructuring activities are intended to rationalize our global manufacturing capacity and infrastructure and further shift manufacturing capacity to locations with higher efficiencies. During fiscal year 2013, we recognized $227.4 million of pre-tax restructuring charges comprised of $123.0 million of cash charges predominantly related to employee severance costs and $104.4 million of non-cash charges primarily related asset impairment and other exit charges. The restructuring charges by geographic region amounted to $108.4 million in Asia, $91.8 million in Europe and $27.2 million in the Americas. We classified $215.8 million of these charges as a component of cost of sales and $11.6 million of these charges as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses during fiscal year 2013. As of March 31, 2013, accrued costs related to restructuring charges incurred were $97.9 million, of which $87.8 million was classified as a current obligation. We do not anticipate a significant change to our previously announced restructuring plan and expect to recognize an additional $40.0 million in pre-tax restructuring charges in our first quarter of fiscal 2014, comprised primarily of cash charges associated with employee termination costs to be classified as a component of cost of sales. We expect these restructuring activities will allow for potential savings through reduced employee expenses and lower operating costs and to yield annualized cost reductions of approximately $150.0 million.

Refer to note 12 of the notes to consolidated financial statements in Item 8, "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" for further discussion of our restructuring activities.

Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") totaled $805.2 million or 3.4% of net sales, during fiscal year 2013, compared to $877.6 million, or 3.0% of net sales, during fiscal year 2012. The decrease in SG&A in dollars was primarily attributable to the elimination of costs relating to our ODM PC business which we fully exited during fiscal year 2012 and a $28 million provision for doubtful accounts recorded in fiscal 2012 related to a customer concentrated in the solar photovoltaic market that incurred significant financial and liquidity difficulties, The increase of SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales is primarily attributable to lower revenues.

Selling, general and administrative expenses, or SG&A, totaled $877.6 million or 3.0% of net sales, during fiscal year 2012, compared to $801.8 million, or 2.8% of net sales, during fiscal year 2011. The increases in SG&A in dollars and as a percentage of net sales were primarily attributable to the $28.0 million provision for doubtful accounts we recognized in connection with the financially distressed customer discussed above and certain other costs associated with the exit of our ODM related businesses during the third quarter of fiscal year 2012.

Amortization of intangible assets in fiscal year 2013 decreased by $20.1 million to $29.5 million from $49.6 million in fiscal year 2012 and decreased by $16.6 million in fiscal 2012 from $66.2 million in fiscal 2011. The decrease for both periods was primarily due to the use of the accelerated method of amortization for certain customer-related intangibles, which results in decreasing expense over time.

During fiscal year 2013, we recognized other income of $65.2 million primarily due to a gain from the fair value adjustment of $74.4 million of our warrants to purchase common shares of a supplier. These fully-vested warrants, which are derivative instruments, are to be fair valued at each reporting date with gains or losses from changes in fair value recognized in the statements of operations. The gain is offset by various losses from sale, or direct impairments of certain non-core equity investments and notes receivable, and losses from sales of international entities that are individually immaterial.

During fiscal year 2012, we recognized a net gain of $20.0 million, in connection with the sale of certain international entities.

During fiscal year 2011, we recognized charges totaling $6.3 million, consisting of a $13.2 million loss associated with the early redemption of our 6.25% Senior Subordinated Notes, and an $11.7 million loss in connection with the divestiture of certain international entities, offset by a gain of $18.6 million associated with the sale of an equity investment that was previously fully impaired.

Interest and other expense, net was $56.3 million during fiscal year 2013, compared to $36.0 million during fiscal year 2012, an increase of $20.3 million that was primarily due to a decrease in gains on foreign exchange transactions. The decrease in gains on foreign exchange transactions is attributable to our cross-border foreign currency transactions and the revaluation of RMB denominated net asset positions of our U.S. dollar functional currency sites based in China. There can be no assurance that further gains from various arbitrage opportunities related to foreign exchange settlements in China will be available in the future.

Interest and other expense, net was $36.0 million during fiscal year 2012, compared to $74.9 million during fiscal year 2011, a decrease of $38.9 million. The decrease in net expense was primarily due to a $39.2 million reduction in net interest expense principally from the expiration of interest rate swaps in January 2011, which had fixed rates greater than the floating rates underlying our borrowing arrangements and to a lesser extent to the refinancing of $542.1 million of certain subordinated notes during fiscal year 2011 with our lower rate revolving credit facility and Asia term loans. Gains on foreign exchange transactions increased $6.6 million during fiscal year 2012 as we continue to benefit from certain arbitrage opportunities related to foreign currency transactions and the revaluation of RMB denominated net asset positions for our U.S. functional currency sites based in China.

We expect interest expense to increase during fiscal year 2014 as a result of our $1.0 billion of fixed rate debt issued in February 2013, which comprises $500 million of 4.625% notes and $500 million of 5.000% notes. Although these interest rates are fixed, such interest rates are higher than the interest rate of the variable rate debt that was repaid in February 2013, which bore a base rate plus a margin of 1.25% or LIBOR plus a margin of 2.25%.

Certain of our subsidiaries have, at various times, been granted tax relief in their respective countries, resulting in lower income taxes than would otherwise be the case under ordinary tax rates.

The consolidated effective tax rates were 8.0%, 9.4% and 3.5% for the fiscal years 2013, 2012 and 2011. The effective rate varies from the Singapore statutory rate of 17.0% as a result of recognition of earnings in different jurisdictions, operating loss carry forwards, income tax credits, previously established valuation allowances for deferred tax assets, liabilities for uncertain tax positions, as well as because of the effect of certain tax holidays and incentives granted to our subsidiaries primarily in China, Malaysia, Israel, and Singapore. We generate most of our revenues and profits from operations outside of Singapore. The effective tax rate for fiscal year 2013 varies from the effective rates for fiscal years 2012 and 2011 primarily as a result of changes in valuation allowances and liabilities for uncertain tax positions.

See note 11, "Income Taxes," of the notes to consolidated financial statements included in Item 8, "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" for further discussion.

Consistent with our strategy to evaluate the strategic and financial contributions of each of our operations and to focus on the primary growth objectives in our core manufacturing business activities, in fiscal year 2013, we finalized the sale of two of our non-core businesses. These non-core businesses represent separate asset groups and the divestitures qualify as discontinued operations, and accordingly, we have reported the results of operations and financial position of these businesses in discontinued operations within the consolidated statements of operations and the consolidated balance sheets for all periods presented.

Net sales in fiscal year 2013 and fiscal year 2012 decreased $86.7 million and $110.0 million, respectively, as we decelerated operations while evaluating strategic alternatives for the businesses and due to the end of certain product life cycles. The increase in net loss during fiscal year 2012 is primarily attributable to a $17.0 million charge for impairment of fixed assets that were sold in the transaction. The impairment charge is included in cost of sales in the results of discontinued operations. We recognized a loss of $12.1 million as a result of the disposition of these non-core businesses in fiscal 2013 which is included in interest and other expense (income), net in the results from discontinued operations.

As of March 31, 2013, we had cash and cash equivalents of $1.6 billion and bank and other borrowings of $2.1 billion. We have a $1.5 billion revolving credit facility, under which we had no borrowings outstanding as of March 31, 2013 and $140 million outstanding as of March 31, 2012.

Our cash balances are held in numerous locations throughout the world. As of March 31, 2013, approximately half of our cash and cash equivalents were held by foreign subsidiaries outside of Singapore. Although substantially all of the amounts held outside of Singapore could be repatriated, under current laws, a significant amount could be subject to income tax withholdings. We provide for tax liabilities on these amounts for financial statement purposes, except for certain of our foreign earnings that are considered indefinitely reinvested outside of Singapore (approximately $457.7 million as of March 31, 2013). Repatriation could result in an additional income tax payment, however, our intent is to permanently reinvest these funds outside of Singapore and our current plans do not demonstrate a need to repatriate them to fund our operations in jurisdictions outside of where they are held. Where local restrictions prevent an efficient intercompany transfer of funds, our intent is that cash balances would remain outside of Singapore and we would meet our liquidity needs through ongoing cash flows, external borrowings, or both.

Cash provided by operating activities was $1.1 billion during fiscal year 2013, which resulted primarily from $277.1 million of net income for the period and $522.5 million of non-cash earnings adjustment items such as depreciation, amortization, impairment charges and stock-based compensation expense. We generated $315.9 million in cash as a result of decreases in operating assets and liabilities, net of acquisitions. Our changes in operating assets and liabilities, net of acquisitions is primarily due to a decrease of $519.1 million in accounts receivable and decrease of $596.1 million in inventory, which was partially offset by a decrease in accounts payable of $671.4 million and a decrease in other current and noncurrent liabilities of $189.5 million. The decreases in accounts receivable and inventory are primarily as a result of the decrease in sales in our HVS business, which generally carry higher volumes than our other complex business groups. The decrease in accounts payable is principally related to the decrease in inventory and timing of supplier payments.

Cash used in investing activities during fiscal year 2013 was $697.2 million. This resulted primarily from $435.3 million in capital expenditures for equipment, net of proceeds on sales, and $184.1 million paid for the acquisition of four businesses during the fiscal year. We also spent approximately $115.3 million included in other investing cash flows, offset by the receipt of cash included in other financing activities further discussed below to purchase assets financed by a third party banking institution on behalf of a customer.

Cash used in financing activities amounted to $339.6 million during fiscal year 2013, which was primarily attributable to the repurchase of approximately 49.9 million shares for an aggregate purchase value of approximately $322.0 million and repayment of the outstanding balance under our revolving line of credit of $140.0 million. These cash outflows were offset by the receipt of $101.9 million included in other financing activities to purchase assets financed by a third party banking institution on behalf of a customer.

Cash provided by operating activities was $804.3 million during fiscal year 2012, which resulted primarily from $488.8 million of net income for the period and $566.1 million of non-cash earnings adjustment items such as depreciation, amortization, impairment charges and stock-based compensation expense. We used $250.6 million in cash as a result of an increase in operating assets and liabilities, net of acquisitions. Our working capital accounts increased primarily due to a decrease of $750.2 million in

accounts payable and an increase of $30.2 million in accounts receivable, which was partially offset by a decrease in inventory of $301.1 million principally due to the deceleration of sales in our HVS market, and an increase in deferred revenue and customer working capital advances of $249.8 million. The decrease in accounts payable is principally related to the decrease in inventory and timing of supplier payments.

Cash used in investing activities during fiscal year 2012 was $481.4 million. This resulted primarily from $388.0 million in capital expenditures for equipment, net of proceeds on sales, and $92.3 million paid for three acquisitions completed during the year.

Cash used in financing activities amounted to $522.2 million during fiscal year 2012, which was primarily attributable to the repurchase of approximately 81.7 million shares for an aggregate purchase value of approximately $509.8 million. During fiscal year 2012 we also repaid $20.0 million of debt outstanding on our $2.0 billion revolving credit facility.

Cash provided by operating activities was $857.3 million during fiscal year 2011, which resulted primarily from $596.2 million of net income for the period and $482.6 million of non-cash earnings adjustment items such as depreciation, amortization, impairment charges, and stock-based compensation expense. We used $221.5 million in cash as a result of an increase in operating assets and liabilities, net of acquisitions. Our working capital accounts increased primarily due to an increase of $664.7 million in inventories as a result of our increased production and anticipated growth, and an increase of $337.1 million in other current and non-current assets primarily attributable to $324.6 million in our deferred purchase price receivable associated with our receivables sales, which were partially offset by increases in accounts payable of $609.9 million and other current liabilities of $144.0 million, primarily driven by the timing of purchases and cash payments.

Cash used in investing activities during fiscal year 2011 was $413.2 million. This resulted primarily from $393.9 million in capital expenditures for equipment, net of proceeds on sales, and $17.0 million, net of cash acquired, for contingent consideration and deferred purchase price payments related to four acquisitions, and payments related to two completed acquisitions. Cash used was partially offset by proceeds related to the sale of an equity investment for $18.6 million.

Cash used in financing activities amounted to $641.7 million during fiscal year 2011. During the 2011 fiscal year, we repurchased approximately 65.4 million shares at an aggregate purchase value of $400.4 million, including accrued expenses. In August 2010, we paid $240.0 million to redeem the entire principal amount of the 1% Convertible Subordinated Notes at par plus accrued interest. In December 2010, we paid approximately $308.5 million to redeem the aggregate principal balance and redemption premium of our 6.25% Senior Subordinated Notes ("6.25% Notes") plus accrued interest. In addition, we made repayments of approximately $217.1 million related to our Global Asset-Backed Securitization program effective with the adoption of new accounting standards on April 1, 2010.

The cash used in financing activities was partially offset by $379.0 million of additional borrowings under new Asia term loan agreements and $160.0 million of borrowings under our revolving line of credit. During September 2010, we entered into two new three-year term loan agreements with certain financial institutions based in Asia and borrowed $180.0 million in the aggregate. During February 2011, we entered into a new three-year term loan agreement with a financial institution based in Asia and borrowed $200.0 million in the aggregate.

We believe free cash flow is an important liquidity metric because it measures, during a given period, the amount of cash generated that is available to repay debt obligations, make investments, fund acquisitions, repurchase company shares and for certain other activities. Our free cash flow, which is calculated as cash provided by operations less net purchases of property and equipment, was $680.1 million, $416.3 million and $463.5 million for fiscal years 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Free cash flow is not a measure of liquidity under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, and may not be defined and calculated by other companies in the same manner. Free cash flow should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net cash provided by operating activities. Free cash flows reconcile to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure of cash flows from operations as follows:

Days in trade accounts receivable was calculated as the average accounts receivable for the current and prior quarter, excluding the reduction in accounts receivable resulting from non-cash accounts receivable sales, divided by annualized sales for the current quarter by day. During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013, days in trade accounts receivable increased by 1 day to 46 days compared to the fiscal year ended March 31, 2012 primarily as a result of the decline in sales in the HVS market that contained shorter payment terms. Non-cash accounts receivable sales or deferred purchase price receivables included for the purposes of the calculation were $412.4 million, $514.9 million and $460.0 million for the years ended March 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Deferred purchase price receivables were recorded in other current assets in the consolidated balance sheets.

Days in inventory was calculated as the average inventory for the current and prior quarter divided by annualized cost of sales for the current quarter by day. During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013, days in inventory remained consistent at 52 days as compared to the fiscal year ended March 31, 2012. Our inventory turns were over the past two years negatively impacted by the decline in sales in the HVS market which carry significantly higher inventory turns than our corporate average inventory turns.

Days in accounts payable was calculated as the average accounts payable for the current and prior quarter divided by annualized cost of sales for the current quarter by day. During the fiscal year ended

March 31, 2013, days in accounts payable improved 2 days to 72 days compared to the fiscal year ended March 31, 2012 primarily due to timing of supplier payments.

Our cash conversion cycle was calculated as days in trade receivables plus days in inventory, minus days in accounts payable and is a measure of how efficient we are at managing our working capital. For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013, our cash conversion cycle improved 1 day to 26 days as compared with the fiscal year ended March 31, 2012 due to the factors affecting each of the components in the calculation discussed above.

Liquidity is affected by many factors, some of which are based on normal ongoing operations of the business and some of which arise from fluctuations related to global economics and markets. Cash balances are generated and held in many locations throughout the world. Local government regulations may restrict our ability to move cash balances to meet cash needs under certain circumstances; however, any current restrictions are not material. We do not currently expect such regulations and restrictions to impact our ability to pay vendors and conduct operations throughout the global organization. We believe that our existing cash balances, together with anticipated cash flows from operations and borrowings available under our credit facilities, will be sufficient to fund our operations through at least the next twelve months.

Future liquidity needs will depend on fluctuations in levels of inventory, accounts receivable and accounts payable, the timing of capital expenditures for new equipment, the extent to which we utilize operating leases for new facilities and equipment, and the levels of shipments and changes in the volumes of customer orders.

Historically, we have funded operations from cash and cash equivalents generated from operations, proceeds from public offerings of equity and debt securities, bank debt and lease financings. We also sell designated pools of trade receivables under asset-backed securitization ("ABS") programs and sell certain trade receivables, which are in addition to the trade receivables sold in connection with these securitization agreements. During fiscal years 2013, 2012 and 2011 we received approximately $3.5 billion, $4.7 billion and $2.4 billion, respectively from sales of receivables under our ABS programs, and $1.1 billion, $2.0 billion and $2.5 billion, respectively from other sales of receivables. As of March 31, 2013 and 2012, the outstanding balance on receivables sold for cash was $720.5 million and $667.3 million, respectively, under all our accounts receivable sales programs, which are not included in our consolidated balance sheets.

On February 20, 2013, the Company issued $500.0 million of 4.625% Notes due February 15, 2020 and $500.0 million of 5.000% Notes due February 15, 2023 (collectively the "Notes") in a private offering pursuant to Rule 144A and Regulation S under the Securities Act. The Company received net proceeds of approximately $990.6 million from the issuance and used those proceeds together with $9.4 million of cash on hand, to repay $1.0 billion of outstanding borrowings under its 2007 term loan facility. This refinancing extended the maturity and effectively converted $1.0 billion of the Company's floating rate debt to a fixed rate.

We anticipate that we will enter into debt and equity financings, sales of accounts receivable and lease transactions to fund acquisitions and anticipated growth. The sale or issuance of equity or convertible debt securities could result in dilution to current shareholders. Further, we may issue debt securities that have rights and privileges senior to those of holders of ordinary shares, and the terms of this debt could impose restrictions on operations and could increase debt service obligations. This increased indebtedness could limit our flexibility as a result of debt service requirements and restrictive covenants, potentially affect our credit ratings, and may limit our ability to access additional capital or execute our business strategy. Any downgrades in credit ratings could adversely affect our ability to borrow as a result of more restrictive borrowing terms. We continue to assess our capital structure and evaluate the merits of redeploying available cash to reduce existing debt or repurchase ordinary shares.

On September 13, 2012, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to 10% of our outstanding ordinary shares which was approved by our shareholders at the 2012 Extraordinary General Meeting held on August 30, 2012. Share repurchases by us under the share repurchase plans are subject to an aggregate limit of 10% of our ordinary shares outstanding as of the date of the 2012 Extraordinary General Meeting. During fiscal year 2013, we repurchased approximately 31.3 million shares for an aggregate purchase value of approximately $200.0 million under this plan, including accrued expenses, and retired all of these shares. During the first fiscal quarter of 2013, we repurchased the entire remaining amount under the plan that was approved by our Board of Directors on December 7, 2011, or approximately 20.4 million shares for an aggregate purchase value of approximately $134.0 million, and retired all of these shares.

As discussed above, during fiscal 2013, the Company issued an aggregate amount of $1.0 billion in Notes which are senior unsecured obligations of the Company, rank equally with all of the Company's other existing and future senior and unsecured debt obligations, and are guaranteed, jointly and severally, fully and unconditionally on an unsecured basis, by each of the Company's 100% owned subsidiaries that guarantees indebtedness under, or is a borrower under, the Company's Term Loan Agreement and Revolving Line of Credit. These notes carry registration rights and we have an obligation to register these securities by November 17, 2013. As of March 31, 2013, we were in compliance with the covenants under these credit facilities. Interest on the Notes is payable semi-annually, commencing on August 15, 2013.

The Company also has a five-year $2.0 billion credit facility consisting of a $1.5 billion revolving credit facility and a $500 million term loan, which expires in October 2016. As of March 31, 2013, there were no borrowings outstanding under the revolving credit facility. The credit facility requires that we maintain a maximum ratio of total indebtedness to EBITDA (earnings before interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization), and a minimum interest coverage ratio, as defined. As of March 31, 2013, we were in compliance with the covenants under the credit facility.

We have approximately $687.8 million of borrowings outstanding under two term loan facilities as of March 31, 2013, including the Term Loan discussed above. Of these amounts, approximately $170.3 million matures in October 2014, and the remainder matures in October 2016. We do not need to make any payments on the term loan facility that matures in October 2014 and any payments thereafter through maturity are not significant. The term loan which matures in October 2016 is repayable in quarterly installments of $6.9 million through September 2013 and $10.3 million per quarter thereafter, with the remaining amount due at maturity. Both of these term loan facilities require that we maintain a maximum ratio of total indebtedness to EBITDA, and as of March 31, 2013, we were in compliance with the covenant.

We also have approximately $375 million of borrowings outstanding under our Asia term loans as of March 31, 2013 which mature in September 2013 and February 2014. Quarterly repayments for these loans are not significant. These loans also require the Company maintain a maximum ratio of total indebtedness to EBITDA during the terms of the agreements. As of March 31, 2013, the Company was in compliance with the covenant.

We and certain of our subsidiaries also have various uncommitted revolving credit facilities, lines of credit and other loans in the amount of $274.2 million in the aggregate under which there were no borrowings outstanding as of March 31, 2013.

Refer to the discussion in note 6, "Bank Borrowings and Long-Term Debt" of the notes to consolidated financial statements for further details of the Company's debt obligations.

We have purchase obligations that arise in the normal course of business, primarily consisting of binding purchase orders for inventory related items and capital expenditures. Additionally, we have leased certain of our property and equipment under capital lease commitments, and certain of our facilities and equipment under operating lease commitments.

Future payments due under our purchase obligations, debt including capital leases and related interest obligations and operating lease contracts are as follows:

Interest on the credit facility that matures in October 2016, under which, as of March 31, 2013, we had $517.5 million outstanding under our term loan and no borrowings outstanding under the revolving credit facility, is based at our option on, either at (i) LIBOR plus the applicable margin for LIBOR loans ranging between 1.25% and 2.25%, based on the Company's credit ratings or (ii) the base rate (the greatest of the agent's prime rate, the federal funds rate plus 0.50% and LIBOR for a one-month interest period plus 1.00%) plus an applicable margin ranging between 0.25% and 1.25%, based on the Company's credit rating. Interest on the $375 million outstanding under our Asia term loans accrues at LIBOR plus 2.15% to 2.30%. Interest on the $170.3 million outstanding under our term loan facility that matures in October 2014 is based at our option on either (i) the base rate (the greater of the agent's prime rate or the federal funds rate plus 0.50%) plus a margin of 1.25%; or (ii) LIBOR plus a margin of 2.25%. Finally, our variable rate debt also includes demand notes and certain variable lines of credit. These credit lines are located throughout the world and variable interest is generally based on a spread over that country's inter-bank offering rate. Interest expense in the table above is estimated based on LIBOR for the applicable tenor as of March 31, 2013.

We have excluded $230.0 million of liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits from the contractual obligations table as we cannot make a reasonably reliable estimate of the periodic settlements with the respective taxing authorities. See note 11, "Income Taxes" of the notes to consolidated financial statements for further details.

Our purchase obligations can fluctuate significantly from period-to-period and can materially impact our future operating asset and liability balances, and our future working capital requirements. We intend to use our existing cash balances, together with anticipated cash flows from operations to fund our existing and future contractual obligations.

We sell designated pools of trade receivables to unaffiliated financial institutions under our ABS programs, and in addition to cash, we receive a deferred purchase price receivable for each pool of the receivables sold. Each of these deferred purchase price receivables serves as additional credit support to the financial institutions and is recorded at its estimated fair value. As of March 31, 2013 and 2012,

the fair value of our deferred purchase price receivable was approximately $412.4 million and $514.9 million, respectively. As of March 31, 2013 and 2012, the outstanding balance on receivables sold for cash was $720.5 million and $667.3 million, respectively, under all our accounts receivable sales programs, which are not included in our consolidated balance sheets. For further information see note 8 of our notes to the consolidated financial statements.

Refer to note 2 of the notes to the consolidated financial statements for recent accounting pronouncements.

We have warrants to purchase common shares of a certain supplier, which create exposures for us related to market price volatility. We value these warrants using the Black-Scholes option-valuation model. For the three-months ended March 31, 2013, we used the following assumptions to value these warrants:

These warrants were exercised and the underlying shares were sold subsequent to year end for total proceeds of $67.3 million resulting in a $7.1 million realized loss from the recorded value of $74.4 million as of March 31, 2013, that will be recognized during the Company's fiscal quarter ending June 28, 2013.

A portion of our exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates to our investment portfolio, which consists of highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less from original dates of purchase. We do not use derivative financial instruments in our investment portfolio. We place cash and cash equivalents with various major financial institutions and limit the amount of credit exposure to 20% of the issuer's or fund's total assets measured at the time of purchase or $10.0 million, whichever is greater. We protect our invested principal by limiting default risk, market risk and reinvestment risk. We mitigate default risk by investing in investment grade securities and by constantly positioning the portfolio to respond appropriately to a reduction in credit rating of any investment issuer, guarantor or depository to levels below the credit ratings dictated by our investment policy. The portfolio includes only marketable securities with active secondary or resale markets to ensure portfolio liquidity. Maturities of short-term investments are timed, whenever possible, to correspond with debt payments and capital investments. As of March 31, 2013, the outstanding amount in the investment portfolio was $0.5 billion, comprised mainly of money market funds with an average return of 3.1%. A hypothetical 10% change in interest rates would not be expected to have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows over the next fiscal year.

We had variable rate debt outstanding of approximately $1.1 billion as of March 31, 2013. Variable rate debt obligations consisted of borrowings under our term loan. Interest on these obligations is discussed above.

Our variable rate debt instruments create exposures for us related to interest rate risk. Primarily due to the current low interest rates a hypothetical 10% change in interest rates would not be expected to have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows over the next fiscal year primarily due to the current low interest rates.

As of March 31, 2013, the approximate fair value of our debt outstanding under our term loan facility that matures in October 2014 was 100.1% of the face value of the debt obligation, and the fair value of debt outstanding under our term loan that matures in October 2016 was 100.3% of the face value of the debt obligation, based on broker trading prices. Our Asia term loans are not traded publicly; however, as the pricing, maturity and other pertinent terms of these loans closely approximate those of the term loan facilities described above, we estimate the respective fair values would be approximately the same as the carrying values of the respective term loan facilities.

We transact business in various foreign countries and are, therefore, subject to risk of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. We have established a foreign currency risk management policy to manage this risk. To the extent possible, we manage our foreign currency exposure by evaluating and using non-financial techniques, such as currency of invoice, leading and lagging payments and receivables management. In addition, we borrow in various foreign currencies and enter into short-term foreign currency forward and swap contracts to hedge only those currency exposures associated with certain assets and liabilities, mainly accounts receivable and accounts payable, and cash flows denominated in non-functional currencies.

We endeavor to maintain a partial or fully hedged position for certain transaction exposures. These exposures are primarily, but not limited to, revenues, customer and vendor payments and inter-company balances in currencies other than the functional currency unit of the operating entity. The credit risk of our foreign currency forward and swap contracts is minimized since all contracts are with large financial institutions and accordingly, fair value adjustments related to the credit risk of the counter-party financial institution were not material. The gains and losses on forward and swap contracts generally offset the losses and gains on the assets, liabilities and transactions hedged. The fair value of currency forward and swap contracts is reported on the balance sheet. The aggregate notional amount of outstanding contracts as of March 31, 2013 amounted to $4.8 billion and the recorded fair values of the associated asset and/or liability were not material. The majority of these foreign exchange contracts expire in less than three months and all expire within one year. They will settle primarily in Brazilian real, British pound, Canadian dollar, China renminbi, Danish kroner, Euro, Hungarian forint, Israeli shekel, Japanese yen, Malaysian ringgit, Mexican peso, Singapore dollar, and U.S. dollar.

Based on our overall currency rate exposures as of March 31, 2013, including the derivative financial instruments intended to hedge the nonfunctional currency-denominated monetary assets, liabilities and cash flows, a near-term 10% appreciation or depreciation of the U.S. dollar from its cross-functional rates would not be expected to have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows over the next fiscal year.

The accompanying notes are an integral part of these consolidated financial statements.

Flextronics International Ltd. ("Flextronics" or the "Company") was incorporated in the Republic of Singapore in May 1990. The Company's operations have expanded over the years through a combination of organic growth and acquisitions. The Company is a leading global provider of advanced design, manufacturing and services to original equipment manufacturers ("OEMs") of a broad range of electronic products in the following markets: High Reliability Solutions ("HRS"), which is comprised of our medical, automotive, and defense and aerospace businesses; High Velocity Solutions ("HVS"), which includes our mobile devices business, including smart phones, and consumer electronics, including game consoles, high-volume computing business, including notebook personal computing ("PC"), tablets, and printers; Industrial and Emerging Industries ("IEI"), which is comprised of large household appliances, equipment, and our emerging industries businesses; and Integrated Network Solutions ("INS"), which includes our telecommunications infrastructure, data networking, connected home, and server and storage businesses. The Company's strategy is to provide customers with a full range of cost competitive, global supply chain services through which the Company can design, build, ship and service a complete packaged product for its OEM customers. OEM customers leverage the Company's services to meet their product requirements throughout the entire product life cycle.

The Company's service offerings include rigid and flexible printed circuit board fabrication, systems assembly and manufacturing (including enclosures, testing services, materials procurement and inventory management), logistics, after-sales services (including product repair, warranty services, re-manufacturing and maintenance), supply chain management software solutions and component product offerings. Additionally, the Company provides a comprehensive range of value-added design and engineering services that are tailored to the various markets and needs of its customers.

The Company's third fiscal quarter ends on December 31, and the fourth fiscal quarter and year ends on March 31 of each year. The first fiscal quarter ended on June 29, 2012, July 1, 2011 and July 2, 2010, respectively, and the second fiscal quarter ended on September 28, 2012, September 30, 2011 and October 1, 2010, respectively. Amounts included in the consolidated financial statements are expressed in U.S. dollars unless otherwise designated.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Flextronics and its majority-owned subsidiaries, after elimination of intercompany accounts and transactions. The Company consolidates all majority-owned subsidiaries and investments in entities in which the Company has a controlling interest. For consolidated majority-owned subsidiaries in which the Company owns less than 100%, the Company recognizes a noncontrolling interest for the ownership of the noncontrolling owners. As of March 31, 2013 and 2012, the noncontrolling interest was not material. The associated noncontrolling owners' interest in the income or losses of these companies has not been material to the Company's results of operations for any of the periods presented, and has been classified within interest and other expense, net, in the consolidated statements of operations.

In fiscal year 2013, the Company finalized the sale of certain assets of a non-core business, including intellectual property. In addition, the Company completed the sale of another non-core business during fiscal year 2013. In accordance with the accounting guidance, these non-core businesses represent separate asset groups and the divestitures qualify as discontinued operations, and accordingly, the Company has reported the results of operations and financial position of these businesses in

discontinued operations within the consolidated statements of operation and consolidated balance sheets for all periods presented as applicable.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP" or "GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates are used in accounting for, among other things: allowances for doubtful accounts; inventory write-downs; valuation allowances for deferred tax assets; uncertain tax positions; valuation and useful lives of long-lived assets including property, equipment, intangible assets and goodwill; asset impairments; fair values of financial instruments including investments, notes receivable and derivative instruments; restructuring charges; contingencies; fair values of assets and liabilities obtained in business combinations and the fair values of stock options and share bonus awards granted under the Company's stock-based compensation plans. Actual results may differ from previously estimated amounts, and such differences may be material to the consolidated financial statements. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically, and the effects of revisions are reflected in the period they occur.

The financial position and results of operations for certain of the Company's subsidiaries are measured using a currency other than the U.S. dollar as their functional currency. Accordingly, all assets and liabilities for these subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars at the current exchange rates as of the respective balance sheet dates. Revenue and expense items are translated at the average exchange rates prevailing during the period. Cumulative gains and losses from the translation of these subsidiaries' financial statements are reported as a separate component of shareholders' equity. Foreign exchange gains and losses arising from transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of the entity involved, and re-measurement adjustments for foreign operations where the U.S. dollar is the functional currency, are included in operating results. Non-functional currency transaction gains and losses, and re-measurement adjustments were not material to the Company's consolidated results of operations for any of the periods presented, and have been classified as a component of interest and other expense, net in the consolidated statements of operations.

The Company recognizes manufacturing revenue when it ships goods or the goods are received by its customer, title and risk of ownership have passed, the price to the buyer is fixed or determinable and recoverability is reasonably assured. Generally, there are no formal substantive customer acceptance requirements or further obligations related to manufacturing services. If such requirements or obligations exist, then the Company recognizes the related revenues at the time when such requirements are completed and the obligations are fulfilled. The Company makes provisions for estimated sales returns and other adjustments at the time revenue is recognized based upon contractual terms and an analysis of historical returns. These provisions were not material to the consolidated financial statements for any of the periods presented.

The Company provides services for its customers that range from contract design to manufacturing and logistics to repair services. For contract design services the customer purchases engineering and development services on a time and materials basis. For original product design services the Company develops products to be offered for sale by OEM customers under the OEM's brand name. The Company recognizes service revenue when the services have been performed, and the related costs are expensed as incurred. Net sales for services were less than 10% of the Company's total sales for all periods presented, and accordingly, are included in net sales in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company recognized research and development costs related to its ODM personal computing business of $78.9 million and $46.5 million for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Research and development activities related to ODM personal computing had ceased by the end of fiscal year 2012.

The Company has an established customer credit policy, through which it manages customer credit exposures through credit evaluations, credit limit setting, monitoring, and enforcement of credit limits for new and existing customers. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers' financial condition and makes provisions for doubtful accounts based on the outcome of those credit evaluations. The Company evaluates the collectability of its accounts receivable based on specific customer circumstances, current economic trends, historical experience with collections and the age of past due receivables. To the extent the Company identifies exposures as a result of credit or customer evaluations, the Company also reviews other customer related exposures, including but not limited to inventory and related contractual obligations.

Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk are primarily accounts receivable, cash and cash equivalents, and derivative instruments.

The following table summarizes the activity in the Company's allowance for doubtful accounts during fiscal years 2013, 2012 and 2011:

No customer accounted for greater than 10% of the Company's net sales in fiscal 2013. Two customers accounted for approximately 11% and 10%, respectively of the Company's net sales in fiscal 2012. One of these customers accounted for approximately 11% of the Company's net sales in fiscal years 2011. The Company's ten largest customers accounted for approximately 47%, 55% and 52% of its net sales, in fiscal years 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. As of March 31, 2013 and 2012, no single customer accounted for greater than 10% of the Company's total accounts receivable.

The Company maintains cash and cash equivalents with various financial institutions that management believes to be of high credit quality. These financial institutions are located in many different locations throughout the world. The Company's cash equivalents are primarily comprised of cash deposited in checking and money market accounts. The Company's investment policy limits the amount of credit exposure to 20% of the issuer's or the fund's total assets measured at the time of purchase or $10.0 million, whichever is greater.

The amount subject to credit risk related to derivative instruments is generally limited to the amount, if any, by which a counterparty's obligations exceed the obligations of the Company with that counterparty. To manage counterparty risk, the Company limits its derivative transactions to those with recognized financial institutions. See additional discussion of derivatives at note 7 to the consolidated financial statements.

All highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less from original dates of purchase are carried at cost, which approximates fair market value, and are considered to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash deposited in checking accounts, money market funds and time deposits.

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (on a first-in, first-out basis) or market value. The stated cost is comprised of direct materials, labor and overhead. The components of inventories, net of applicable lower of cost or market write-downs, were as follows:

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation and amortization is recognized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the related assets, with the exception of building leasehold improvements, which are amortized over the term of the lease, if shorter. Repairs and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. Property and equipment was comprised of the following:

Total depreciation expense associated with property and equipment amounted to approximately $412.3 million, $407.5 million and $384.3 million in fiscal years 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Property and equipment excludes assets no longer in use and held for sale as a result of restructuring activities, as discussed in note 9 and discontinued operations as discussed in note 18 to the consolidated financial statements.

The Company reviews property and equipment for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of property and equipment is measured by comparing its carrying amount to the projected undiscounted

cash flows the property and equipment are expected to generate. An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount of a long-lived asset exceeds its fair value. Refer to note 12 for a discussion of impairment charges recorded in fiscal year 2013.

The Company provides for income taxes in accordance with the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amount and the tax basis of existing assets and liabilities by applying the applicable statutory tax rate to such differences.

The Company has actively pursued business and asset acquisitions, which are accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. The fair value of the net assets acquired and the results of the acquired businesses are included in the Company's consolidated financial statements from the acquisition dates forward. The Company is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and results of operations during the reporting period. Estimates are used in accounting for, among other things, the fair value of acquired net operating assets, property and equipment, intangible assets and related deferred tax liabilities, useful lives of plant and equipment and amortizable lives for acquired intangible assets. Any excess of the purchase consideration over the identified fair value of the assets and liabilities acquired is recognized as goodwill.

The Company estimates the preliminary fair value of acquired assets and liabilities as of the date of acquisition based on information available at that time. Contingent consideration is recorded at fair value as of the date of the acquisition with subsequent adjustments recorded in earnings. Changes to valuation allowances on acquired deferred tax assets are recognized in the provision for, or benefit from, income taxes. The valuation of these tangible and identifiable intangible assets and liabilities is subject to further management review and may change materially between the preliminary allocation and end of the purchase price allocation period. Any changes in these estimates may have a material effect on the Company's consolidated operating results or financial position.

Goodwill is tested for impairment on an annual basis and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of goodwill may not be recoverable. Recoverability of goodwill is measured at the reporting unit level by comparing the reporting unit's carrying amount, including goodwill, to the fair value of the reporting unit, which is measured based upon, among other factors, market multiples for comparable companies as well as a discounted cash flow analysis. The Company has one reporting unit: Electronics Manufacturing Services ("EMS"). If the recorded value of the assets, including goodwill, and liabilities ("net book value") of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss may be required to be recognized. Further, to the extent the net book value of the Company as a whole is greater than its fair value in the aggregate, all, or a significant portion of its goodwill may be considered impaired. The Company performed its goodwill impairment assessment on January 31, 2013 and did not elect to perform the qualitative "Step Zero" assessment. Instead the Company performed a quantitative assessment of its goodwill at the afore-mentioned date. Based on

this assessment the Company determined that no impairment existed as of the date of the impairment test. The fair value of the reporting unit exceeded the carrying value.

The following table summarizes the activity in the Company's goodwill account during fiscal years 2013 and 2012:

(1): For fiscal year 2013, additions to goodwill were primarily related to $98.7 million added from the acquisition of Saturn Electronics and Engineering, Inc ("Saturn"). The remainder of the additions were attributable to certain acquisitions that were not individually, nor in the aggregate, significant to the Company. For fiscal year 2012, additions were attributable to certain acquisitions that were not individually, nor in the aggregate, significant to the Company. Refer to the discussion of the Company's acquisitions in note 15.
(2): Includes adjustments and reclassifications based on management's estimates resulting from their review and finalization of the valuation of assets and liabilities acquired through certain business combinations completed in a period subsequent to the respective acquisition. These adjustments, reclassifications and acquisitions were not individually, nor in the aggregate, significant to the Company.

The Company's acquired intangible assets are subject to amortization over their estimated useful lives and are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an intangible asset may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount of an intangible asset exceeds its fair value. The Company reviewed the carrying value of its intangible assets as of the year ended March 31, 2013 and concluded that such amounts continued to be recoverable.

Intangible assets are comprised of customer-related intangible assets, which primarily include contractual agreements and customer relationships; and licenses and other intangible assets, which is primarily comprised of licenses and also includes patents and trademarks, and developed technologies. Other intangible assets as of March 31, 2013 were primarily comprised of $10.3 million of developed technology related to the acquisition of Saturn Electronics and Engineering, Inc ("Saturn"). Generally customer-related intangible assets are amortized on an accelerated method based on expected cash flows, primarily over a period of up to eight years. Licenses and other intangible assets are generally

amortized on a straight line basis over a period of up to seven years. No residual value is estimated for any intangible assets. During fiscal year 2013, the gross carrying amount of customer-related intangibles increased by $50.7 million in connection with business acquisitions as described in detail at note 15 to the consolidated financial statements. The fair value of the Company's intangible assets purchased through business combinations is principally determined based on management's estimates of cash flow and recoverability. The components of acquired intangible assets are as follows:

The gross carrying amounts of intangible assets are removed when the recorded amounts have been fully amortized. During the year ended March 31, 2013, the Company sold certain patents with a net carrying amount of $8.6 million. The Company also recognized a charge for impairment of customer-related intangible assets with a net carrying amount of $10.0 million, which is included in the results from discontinued operations, in connection with the sale of a non-core business based on the carrying value of net assets and the sale proceeds. Total intangible asset amortization expense recognized in continuing operations during fiscal years 2013, 2012 and 2011 was $29.5 million, $49.6 million and $66.2 million, respectively. As of March 31, 2013, the weighted-average remaining useful lives of the Company's intangible assets were approximately 2.3 years and 3.3 years for customer-related intangibles, and licenses and other intangible assets, respectively. The estimated future annual amortization expense for acquired intangible assets is as follows:

All derivative instruments are recognized on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value. If the derivative instrument is designated as a cash flow hedge, effectiveness is tested monthly using a regression analysis of the change in the spot currency rates and the change in the present value of the spot currency rates. The spot currency rates are discounted to present value using functional currency LIBOR rates over the maximum length of the hedge period. The effective portion of changes in the

fair value of the derivative instrument (excluding time value) is recognized in shareholders' equity as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), and recognized in the consolidated statements of operations when the hedged item affects earnings. Ineffective and excluded portions of changes in the fair value of cash flow hedges are recognized in earnings immediately. If the derivative instrument is designated as a fair value hedge, the changes in the fair value of the derivative instrument and of the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk are recognized in earnings in the current period. Additional information is included in note 7 to the consolidated financial statements.

Other current assets includes approximately $412.4 million and $514.9 million as of March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively for the deferred purchase price receivable from our Global and North American Asset-Backed Securitization programs. See note 8 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding the Company's participation in its trade receivables securitization programs. Additionally, the balance as of March 31, 2013 includes $74.4 million relating to the fair value of certain fully vested warrants to purchase common stock of a supplier. These warrants were exercised and the underlying shares were sold subsequent to year end for total proceeds of $67.3 million resulting in a $7.1 million realized loss that will be recognized during the Company's fiscal quarter ending June 28, 2013. Also included in other current assets as of March 31, 2013 is an amount of $251.3 million relating to certain assets purchased on behalf of a customer and financed by a third party banking institution as further described in note 15 to the consolidated financial statements.

The Company has certain equity investments in, and notes receivable from, non-publicly traded companies and an equity investment in a publicly traded company, which are included within other assets in the Company's consolidated balance sheets. Non-majority-owned investments are accounted for using the equity method when the Company has an ownership percentage equal to or greater than 20% but less than 50%, or has the ability to significantly influence the operating decisions of the issuer; otherwise the cost method is used. The Company monitors these investments for impairment indicators and makes appropriate reductions in carrying values as required. Fair values of these investments, when required, are estimated using unobservable inputs, primarily discounted cash flow projections.

As of March 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company's equity investments in non-majority owned companies totaled $26.8 million and $38.6 million, respectively. The equity in the earnings or losses of the Company's equity method investments was not material to the consolidated results of operations for any period presented in these consolidated financial statements.

Other current liabilities includes deferred revenue amounting to $227.0 million and $329.6 million and customer working capital advances amounting to $214.1 million and $326.6 million as of March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Also included in other current liabilities as of March 31, 2013 is an amount of $272.8 million relating to amounts financed by a third party banking institution for the purchase of assets on behalf of a customer as further described in note 15 to the consolidated financial statements.

The Company recognizes restructuring charges related to its plans to close or consolidate excess manufacturing and administrative facilities. In connection with these activities, the Company records

restructuring charges for employee termination costs, long-lived asset impairment and other exit-related costs.

The recognition of restructuring charges requires the Company to make certain judgments and estimates regarding the nature, timing and amount of costs associated with the planned exit activity. To the extent the Company's actual results differ from its estimates and assumptions, the Company may be required to revise the estimates of future liabilities, requiring the recognition of additional restructuring charges or the reduction of liabilities already recognized. Such changes to previously estimated amounts may be material to the consolidated financial statements. At the end of each reporting period, the Company evaluates the remaining accrued balances to ensure that no excess accruals are retained and the utilization of the provisions are for their intended purpose in accordance with developed exit plans. See note 12 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding restructuring charges.

In February 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued guidance which requires an entity to measure obligations resulting from joint and several liability arrangements, including the amount the reporting entity agreed to pay on the basis of its arrangement among its co-obligors and any additional amount the reporting entity expects to pay on behalf of its co-obligors, as well as discussion of the nature of such obligations.

In February 2013, the FASB issued guidance which requires an entity to disclose amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by component for each period an income statement is presented to present, either on the face of the statement where net income is presented or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by the respective line items of net income. This disclosure is effective for the Company beginning in fiscal year 2014.

In December 2011, the FASB issued guidance which requires an entity to disclose information about offsetting and related arrangements to enable financial statement users to evaluate the effect or potential effect of netting arrangements, including rights of setoff associated with the entity's recognized financial assets and liabilities, on the entity's financial position. The new disclosures will enable financial statement users to compare balance sheets prepared under U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), which are subject to different offsetting models. The disclosures will be limited to financial instruments (and derivatives) subject to enforceable master netting arrangements or similar agreements. Similar agreements include derivative clearing agreements, global master repurchase agreements, and global master securities lending agreements. Financial instruments and transactions that will be subject to the disclosure requirements may include derivatives, repurchase and reverse repurchase agreements, and securities lending and borrowing arrangements. An entity should provide the disclosures required by those amendments retrospectively for all comparative periods presented. The guidance is effective for the Company beginning in fiscal year 2014. The adoption of this guidance will not have a significant impact to the Company's consolidated financial statements.

During fiscal year 2013, the Company granted equity compensation awards under the 2010 Equity Incentive Plan (the "2010 Plan"). As of March 31, 2013, the Company had approximately 43.4 million shares available for grants under the 2010 Plan. Options issued to employees under the 2010 Plan generally vest over four years and expire seven years from the date of grant. Options granted to non-employee directors expire five years from the date of grant.

The exercise price of options granted to employees is determined by the Company's Board of Directors or the Compensation Committee and may not be less than the closing price of the Company's ordinary shares on the date of grant.

The Company also grants share bonus awards under its equity compensation plan. Share bonus awards are rights to acquire a specified number of ordinary shares for no cash consideration in exchange for continued service with the Company. Share bonus awards generally vest in installments over a three to five year period and unvested share bonus awards are forfeited upon termination of employment. Vesting for certain share bonus awards is contingent upon both service and market conditions.

As required by the authoritative guidance for stock-based compensation, management made an estimate of expected forfeitures and is recognizing compensation costs only for those equity awards expected to vest. When estimating forfeitures, the Company considers voluntary termination behavior as well as an analysis of actual forfeitures.

As of March 31, 2013, the total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested share options granted to employees under the Company's equity compensation plans was approximately $1.9 million, net of estimated forfeitures. This cost will be amortized on a straight-line basis over a weighted-average period of approximately 1.9 years and will be adjusted for estimated forfeitures. As of March 31, 2013, the total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested share bonus awards granted to employees was approximately $71.4 million, net of estimated forfeitures. This cost will be amortized generally on a straight-line basis over a weighted-average period of approximately 2.5 years and will be adjusted for estimated forfeitures. Approximately $8.0 million of the unrecognized compensation cost, net of forfeitures, is related to share bonus awards granted to certain key employees whereby vesting is contingent on meeting a certain market condition.

Cash flows resulting from excess tax benefits (tax benefits related to the excess of proceeds from employee exercises of share options over the share-based compensation cost recognized for those

options) are classified as financing cash flows. During fiscal years 2013, 2012 and 2011, the Company did not recognize any excess tax benefits as a financing cash inflow.

Valuation and Amortization Method—The Company estimates the fair value of share options granted using the Black-Scholes valuation method and a single option award approach. This fair value is then amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods of the awards, which is generally the vesting period. The fair market value of share bonus awards granted, other than those awards with a market condition, is the closing price of the Company's ordinary shares on the date of grant and is generally recognized as compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the respective vesting period. For share bonus awards whereby vesting is contingent on meeting certain market conditions, the fair value is determined using a Monte Carlo simulation.

Expected Term—The Company's expected term used in the Black-Scholes valuation method represents the period that the Company's share options are expected to be outstanding and is determined based on historical experience of similar awards, giving consideration to the contractual terms of the share options, vesting schedules and expectations of future employee behavior as influenced by changes to the terms of its share options.

Expected Volatility—The Company's expected volatility used in the Black-Scholes valuation method is derived from a combination of implied volatility related to publicly traded options to purchase Flextronics ordinary shares and historical variability in the Company's periodic share price.

Expected Dividend—The Company has never paid dividends on its ordinary shares and currently does not intend to do so in the near term, and accordingly, the dividend yield percentage is zero for all periods.

Risk-Free Interest Rate—The Company bases the risk-free interest rate used in the Black-Scholes valuation method on the implied yield currently available on U.S. Treasury constant maturities issued with a term equivalent to the expected term of the option.

The fair value of the Company's share options granted to employees for fiscal years 2013, 2012 and 2011 other than those with market criteria discussed below, was estimated using the following weighted-average assumptions:

Options granted during the 2013, 2012 and 2011 fiscal years had contractual lives of seven years.

The following is a summary of option activity for the Company's equity compensation plans, ("Price" reflects the weighted-average exercise price):

	Fiscal Year Ended March 31,

The aggregate intrinsic value of options exercised (calculated as the difference between the exercise price of the underlying award and the price of the Company's ordinary shares determined as of the time of option exercise for options exercised in-the-money) under the Company's equity compensation plans was $13.0 million, $17.1 million and $22.9 million during fiscal years 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Cash received from option exercises was $22.3 million, $23.1 million and $23.3 million for fiscal years 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

The following table presents the composition of options outstanding and exercisable as of March 31, 2013:

	Options Outstanding						Options Exercisable

Range of Exercise Prices	Number of Shares Outstanding		Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life (In Years)		Weighted Average Exercise Price		Number of Shares Exercisable		Weighted Average Exercise Price

$1.94 - $23.02		34,405,564		2.52	$	8.29		33,662,480	$	8.31

Options vested and expected to vest		34,350,265		2.53	$	8.31

As of March 31, 2013, the aggregate intrinsic value for options outstanding, options vested and expected to vest (which includes adjustments for expected forfeitures), and options exercisable were

$46.2 million, $46.2 million and $46.1 million, respectively. The aggregate intrinsic value is calculated as the difference between the exercise price of the underlying awards and the quoted price of the Company's ordinary shares as of March 31, 2013 for the approximately 15.2 million options that were in-the-money at March 31, 2013. As of March 31, 2013, the weighted average remaining contractual life for options exercisable was 2.47 years.

The following table summarizes the Company's share bonus award activity ("Price" reflects the weighted-average grant-date fair value):

	Fiscal Year Ended March 31,

	2013					2012					2011
	Shares			Price		Shares			Price		Shares			Price
Unvested share bonus awards outstanding, beginning of fiscal year		15,965,268		$	6.91		13,801,942		$	8.04		8,801,609		$	10.31
Granted		9,582,867			6.74		9,213,456			6.78		9,739,375			7.01
Vested		(1,506,234	)		7.51		(2,555,165	)		9.34		(2,758,593	)		10.37
Forfeited		(2,234,832	)		6.86		(4,494,965	)		8.60		(1,980,449	)		9.74

Unvested share bonus awards outstanding, end of fiscal year		21,807,069		$	6.80		15,965,268		$	6.91		13,801,942		$	8.04

Of the 21.8 million unvested share bonus awards outstanding as of the year ended March 31, 2013, approximately 3.9 million represents the target amount of grants made to certain key employees whereby vesting is contingent on meeting a certain market condition. The number of shares that ultimately will vest are based on a measurement of Flextronics' total shareholder return against the Standard and Poor's ("S&P") 500 Composite Index and will vest over a period of three years. Of the 3.9 million awards that were outstanding as of the year ended March 31, 2013, 2.1 million were granted in fiscal year 2013 at an estimated average grant-date fair value of $7.63 per share, 1.0 million were granted in fiscal year 2012 at an average grant-date fair value of $7.78 per share, and 0.8 million were granted in fiscal year 2011 at an average grant-date fair value of $7.32 per share. In accordance with accounting guidance, the Company will continue to recognize share-based compensation expense for these awards with market conditions regardless of whether such awards will ultimately vest. The actual number of shares to be issued can range from zero to 4.1 million for the 2013 grants, zero to 1.6 million for the 2012 grants, and zero to 1.2 million for the 2011 grants. The awards granted during fiscal year 2011 will expire in June 2013, and are not expected to vest.

The total intrinsic value of share bonus awards vested under the Company's equity compensation plans was $9.7 million, $17.7 million and $19.6 million during fiscal years 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively, based on the closing price of the Company's ordinary shares on the date vested.

Basic earnings per share for both continuing and discontinued operations exclude dilution and are computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the applicable periods.

Diluted earnings per share for both continuing and discontinued operations reflect the potential dilution from stock options, share bonus awards and convertible securities. The potential dilution from stock options exercisable into ordinary share equivalents and share bonus awards was computed using the treasury stock method based on the average fair market value of the Company's ordinary shares for the period. The potential dilution from the conversion spread (excess of conversion value over face value) of the Subordinated Notes convertible into ordinary share equivalents was calculated as the quotient of the conversion spread and the average fair market value of the Company's ordinary shares for the period.

The following table reflects the basic weighted-average ordinary shares outstanding and diluted weighted-average ordinary share equivalents used to calculate basic and diluted income from continuing and discontinued operations per share:

(1): Options to purchase ordinary shares of 20.6 million, 24.2 million and 25.5 million during fiscal years 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively, were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share primarily because the exercise price of these options was greater than the average market price of the Company's ordinary shares during the respective periods.
(2): On August 2, 2010 the Company paid approximately $240.0 million to redeem its 1% Convertible Subordinated Notes upon maturity. The notes carried conversion provisions to issue shares to settle any conversion spread (excess of the conversion value over the conversion price) in stock. The conversion price was $15.525 per share (subject to certain adjustments). On the maturity date, the Company's stock price was less than the conversion spread, and therefore no shares were issued. For the year ended March 31, 2011, the conversion obligation was less than the principal portion of these notes and accordingly, no additional shares were included as ordinary share equivalents.

The weighted average interest rate for the Company's long-term debt was 3.5% as of March 31, 2013.

Capital lease obligations of $9.1 million and $11.6 million, consisting of short-term obligations of $2.8 million and $3.1 million and long term obligations of $6.3 million and $8.5 million are included in current and non-current liabilities on the Company's balance sheets as of March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

On February 20, 2013, the Company issued $500.0 million of 4.625% Notes due February 15, 2020 and $500.0 million of 5.000% Notes due February 15, 2023 (collectively the "Notes") in a private offering pursuant to Rule 144A and Regulation S under the Securities Act . The Company received net proceeds of approximately $990.6 million from the issuance and used those proceeds, together with $9.4 million of cash on hand, to repay $1.0 billion of outstanding borrowings under its 2007 term loan facility.

Interest on the Notes is payable semi-annually, commencing on August 15, 2013. The Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company, rank equally with all of the Company's other existing and future senior and unsecured debt obligations, and are guaranteed, jointly and severally, fully and unconditionally on an unsecured basis, by each of the Company's 100% owned subsidiaries that guarantees indebtedness under, or is a borrower under, the Company's Term Loan Agreement and Revolving Line of Credit.

At any time prior to maturity, the Company may redeem some or all of the Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed, plus an applicable premium and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the applicable redemption date. Upon the occurrence of a change of control repurchase event (as defined in the Notes indenture), the Company must offer to repurchase the Notes at a repurchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the applicable repurchase date.

The indenture governing the Notes contains covenants that, among other things, restrict the ability of the Company and certain of the Company's subsidiaries to create liens; enter into sale-leaseback transactions; create, incur, issue, assume or guarantee any funded debt; and consolidate or merge with, or convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all of the Company's assets to, another person. These covenants are subject to a number of significant limitations and exceptions set forth in the indenture. The indenture also provides for customary events of default, including, but not limited to, cross defaults to certain specified other debt of the Company and its subsidiaries. In the case of an event of default arising from specified events of bankruptcy or insolvency, all outstanding Notes will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. If any other event of default under the agreement occurs or is continuing, the applicable trustee or holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare all of the Notes to be due and payable immediately. As of March 31, 2013, the Company was in compliance with the covenants in the indenture governing the Notes.

In connection with the issuance of the Notes, the Company entered into a registration rights agreement under which it has agreed to consummate an offer registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission to issue new notes having terms substantially identical to the Notes (except that the new notes will not be subject to restrictions on transfer) in exchange for outstanding Notes. In some circumstances, the Company may be required to file a shelf registration statement to cover

resales of the Notes. If the Company fails to satisfy these obligations, the Company may be required to pay additional interest to holders of the Notes under certain circumstances.

On October 19, 2011, the Company entered into a five-year $2.0 billion Credit Facility consisting of a $1.5 billion Revolving Credit Facility and a $500.0 million term loan, which expires in October 2016. The Revolving Credit Facility due 2016 replaced the Company's $2.0 billion revolving credit facility, which was due to mature in May 2012 and the $500.0 million term loan refinanced the outstanding amount of its $500.0 million tranche under the Company's $1.7 billion term loan, which was due to mature in October 2012. During fiscal year 2013, the Company increased the limit on the term loan by $50 million and borrowed the entire incremental amount. Additionally, the Company repaid a total principal amount of $20 million on the term loan during fiscal year 2013. Borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest, at the Company's option, either at (i) LIBOR plus the applicable margin for LIBOR loans ranging between 1.25% and 2.25%, based on the Company's credit ratings or (ii) the base rate (the greatest of the agent's prime rate, the federal funds rate plus 0.50% and LIBOR for a one-month interest period plus 1.00%) plus an applicable margin ranging between 0.25% and 1.25%, based on the Company's credit rating. The Company is required to pay a quarterly commitment fee ranging between 0.20% and 0.45% per annum on the daily unused amount of the $1.5 billion Revolving Credit Facility based on the Company's credit rating.

This Credit Facility is unsecured, and contains customary restrictions on the Company's and its subsidiaries' ability to (i) incur certain debt, (ii) make certain investments, (iii) make certain acquisitions of other entities, (iv) incur liens, (v) dispose of assets, (vi) make non-cash distributions to shareholders, and (vii) engage in transactions with affiliates. These covenants are subject to a number of exceptions and limitations. This Credit Facility also requires that the Company maintain a maximum ratio of total indebtedness to EBITDA (earnings before interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization), and a minimum interest coverage ratio, as defined therein, during its term. As of March 31, 2013, the Company was in compliance with the covenants under this Credit Facility.

The Company entered into a $1.8 billion term loan facility, dated as of October 1, 2007, and subsequently amended as of December 28, 2007.

During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2008, the Company borrowed $1.7 billion under this term loan agreement. Of this amount, $500.0 million was scheduled to mature in October 2012 and the remainder was scheduled to mature in October 2014. The Company may prepay the loans at any time at 100% of par plus accrued and unpaid interest and reimbursement of the lender's redeployment costs. On October 19, 2011, the Company repaid $480 million, which was the outstanding portion of the $500.0 million due to mature in October 2012. On February 20, 2013, the Company repaid $1.0 billion of the $1.2 billion outstanding that is scheduled to mature in October 2014.

Borrowings under this term loan agreement bear interest, at the Company's option, either at (i) the base rate (the greater of the agent's prime rate or the federal funds rate plus 0.50%) plus a margin of 1.25%; or (ii) LIBOR plus a margin of 2.25%.

This term loan agreement is unsecured, and contains customary restrictions on the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to, among other things, (i) incur certain debt, (ii) make certain investments, (iii) make certain acquisitions of other entities, (iv) incur liens, (v) dispose of assets, (vi) make non-cash distributions to shareholders, and (vii) engage in transactions with affiliates. These covenants are subject to a number of exceptions and limitations. This term loan agreement also requires that the Company maintain a maximum ratio of total indebtedness to EBITDA (as defined by the loan agreement), during the term of the agreement. Borrowings under this term loan agreement are guaranteed by the Company and certain of its subsidiaries. As of March 31, 2013, the Company was in compliance with the covenants under this term loan agreement.

On September 27, 2010, the Company entered into a $50.0 million term loan agreement with a bank based in Asia, which matures on September 27, 2013. Borrowings under the term loan bear interest at LIBOR plus 2.30%. The Company, at its election, may convert the loan (in whole or in part) to bear interest at the higher of the Federal Funds rate plus 0.50% or the prime rate plus, in each case 1.00%. Principal payments of $500,000 are due quarterly with the balance due on the maturity date. The Company has the right to prepay any part of the loan without penalty. Borrowings under the term loan agreement are guaranteed by certain subsidiaries of the Company.

On September 28, 2010, the Company entered into a $130.0 million term loan facility with a bank in Asia, which matures on September 28, 2013. Borrowings under the facility bear interest at LIBOR plus a margin of 2.15%, and the Company paid a non-refundable fee of $1.4 million at the inception of the loan. The Company has the right to prepay any part of the loan without penalty.

On February 17, 2011, the Company entered into a $200.0 million term loan facility with a bank in Asia, which matures on February 17, 2014. Borrowings under the facility bear interest at LIBOR plus a margin of 2.28%, and the Company paid a non-refundable fee of $1.0 million at the inception of the loan. The Company has the right to prepay any part of the loan without penalty.

The Asia Term Loans are unsecured, and contain customary restrictions on the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to, among other things, (i) incur certain debt, (ii) make certain investments, (iii) make certain acquisitions of other entities, (iv) incur liens, (v) dispose of assets, (vi) make non-cash distributions to shareholders, and (vii) engage in transactions with affiliates. These covenants are subject to a number of exceptions and limitations. The Asia Term Loans also require the Company maintain a maximum ratio of total indebtedness to EBITDA (as defined by the loan agreement) during the terms of the agreements. As of March 31, 2013, the Company was in compliance with the covenants under these facilities.

The Company and certain of its subsidiaries also have various uncommitted revolving credit facilities, lines of credit and other loans in the amount of $274.2 million in the aggregate. There were no borrowings outstanding under these facilities as of March 31, 2013 and 2012. These facilities, lines of credit and other loans bear annual interest at the respective country's inter-bank offering rate, plus an applicable margin, and generally have maturities that expire on various dates in future fiscal years. The credit facilities are unsecured and the lines of credit and other loans are primarily secured by accounts receivable.

During August 2010, the Company paid $240.0 million to redeem its 1% Convertible Subordinated Notes at par upon maturity plus accrued interest. These notes carried conversion provisions to issue shares to settle any conversion spread (excess of conversion value over the conversion price) in stock. On the maturity date, the Company's stock price was less than the conversion price, and therefore no ordinary shares were issued.

During December 2010, the Company paid approximately $308.5 million to redeem the remaining aggregate principal balance of $302.2 million of these notes at a redemption price of 102.083% of the principal amount. The Company recognized a loss associated with the early redemption of the notes of approximately $13.2 million during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2011, consisting of the redemption price premium of approximately $6.3 million, and approximately $6.9 million primarily for the write-off of the unamortized debt issuance costs. The loss is recorded in other charges (income), net in the consolidated statement of operations.

The Company transacts business in various foreign countries and is therefore, exposed to foreign currency exchange rate risk inherent in forecasted sales, cost of sales, and monetary assets and liabilities denominated in non-functional currencies. The Company has established risk management programs to protect against volatility in the value of non-functional currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities, and of future cash flows caused by changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The Company tries to maintain a partial or fully hedged position for certain transaction exposures, which are primarily, but not limited to, revenues, customer and vendor payments and inter-company balances in currencies other than the functional currency unit of the operating entity. The Company enters into short-term foreign currency forward and swap contracts to hedge only those currency exposures associated with certain assets and liabilities, primarily accounts receivable and accounts payable, and cash flows denominated in non-functional currencies. Gains and losses on the Company's forward and swap contracts are designed to offset losses and gains on the assets, liabilities and transactions hedged, and accordingly, generally do not subject the Company to risk of significant accounting losses. The Company hedges committed exposures and does not engage in speculative transactions. The credit risk of these forward and swap contracts is minimized since the contracts are with large financial institutions and accordingly, fair value adjustments related to the credit risk of the counter-party financial institution were not material.

As of March 31, 2013, the aggregate notional amount of the Company's outstanding foreign currency forward and swap contracts was $4.8 billion as summarized below:

As of March 31, 2013 and 2012, the fair value of the Company's short-term foreign currency contracts was not material and included in other current assets or other current liabilities, as applicable, in the consolidated balance sheets. Certain of these contracts are designed to economically hedge the Company's exposure to monetary assets and liabilities denominated in non-functional currencies and are not accounted for as hedges under the accounting standards. Accordingly, changes in fair value of these instruments are recognized in earnings during the period of change as a component of interest and other expense, net in the consolidated statements of operations. As of March 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company also has included net deferred gains and losses, respectively, in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), a component of shareholders' equity in the consolidated balance sheets, relating to changes in fair value of its foreign currency contracts that are accounted for as cash flow hedges. These deferred gains and losses were not material, and any deferred losses as of March 31, 2013 are expected to be recognized as a component of cost of sales in the consolidated statement of operations primarily over the next twelve month period. The gains and losses recognized in earnings due to hedge ineffectiveness were not material for all fiscal years presented and are included as a component of interest and other expense, net in the consolidated statements of operations.

The following table presents the fair value of the Company's derivative instruments located on the consolidated balance sheets utilized for foreign currency risk management purposes at March 31, 2013 and 2012:

The Company sells trade receivables under two asset-backed securitization programs and an accounts receivable factoring program.

The Company continuously sells designated pools of trade receivables under its Global Asset-Backed Securitization Agreement (the "Global Program") and its North American Asset-Backed Securitization Agreement (the "North American Program," collectively, the "ABS Programs") to

affiliated special purpose entities, each of which in turn sells 100% of the receivables to unaffiliated financial institutions. These programs allow the operating subsidiaries to receive a cash payment and a deferred purchase price receivable for sold receivables. Following the transfer of the receivables to the special purpose entities, the transferred receivables are isolated from the Company and its affiliates, and upon the sale of the receivables from the special purpose entity to the unaffiliated financial institutions effective control of the transferred receivables is passed to the unaffiliated financial institutions, which has the right to pledge or sell the receivables. Although the special purpose entities are consolidated by the Company, they are separate corporate entities and their assets are available first to satisfy the claims of their creditors. The investment limits by the financial institutions are $500.0 million for the Global Program and $300.0 million for the North American Program and require a minimum level of deferred purchase price receivable to be retained by the Company in connection with the sales.

The Company services, administers and collects the receivables on behalf of the special purpose entities and receives a servicing fee of 0.5% to 1.00% of serviced receivables per annum. Servicing fees recognized during the fiscal years ended March 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011 were not material and are included in interest and other expense, net within the consolidated statements of operations. As the Company estimates the fee it receives in return for its obligation to service these receivables is at fair value, no servicing assets and liabilities are recognized.

Effective April 1, 2010, the Company adopted two new accounting standards, the first of which removed the concept of a qualifying special purpose entity and created more stringent conditions for reporting the transfer of a financial asset as a sale. The second standard amended the consolidation guidance for determining the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity. As a result of the adoption of the second standard, the Company was deemed to be the primary beneficiary of the special purpose entity to which the pool of trade receivables was sold under the Global Program and, as such, was required to consolidate the special purpose entity; the Company had previously been consolidating the special purpose entity under the North American Program. The North American Program was amended effective April 1, 2010 and the Global Program was amended effective September 29, 2010 in each case to provide for the sale by the special purpose entities of 100% of the eligible receivables to the unaffiliated financial institutions; previously the special purpose entities had retained a partial interest in the sold receivables. Upon adoption of these standards, the balance of receivables sold for cash under the Global Program as of April 1, 2010, totaling $217.1 million, was recorded as accounts receivable and short-term bank borrowings in the opening balance sheet of fiscal year 2011. Upon collection of these receivables the Company recorded cash from operations offset by repayments of bank borrowings from financing activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows during the year ended March 31, 2011. As of March 31, 2013 and 2012, the accounts receivable balances that were sold under the ABS Programs were removed from the consolidated balance sheets and the net cash proceeds received by the Company were included as cash provided by operating activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows.

Although the Company still consolidates the special purpose entities, as a result of the amendments to the North American Program effective April 1, 2010 and the Global Program on September 29, 2010, all of the receivables sold to the unaffiliated financial institutions for cash are removed from the consolidated balance sheet and the cash received is no longer accounted for as a secured borrowing. The portion of the purchase price for the receivables which is not paid by the unaffiliated financial institutions in cash is a deferred purchase price receivable, which is paid to the

special purpose entity as payments on the receivables are collected from account debtors. The deferred purchase price receivable represents a beneficial interest in the transferred financial assets and is recognized at fair value as part of the sale transaction.

As of March 31, 2013, approximately $1.0 billion of accounts receivable had been sold to the special purpose entities under the ABS Programs for which the Company had received net cash proceeds of $556.9 million and deferred purchase price receivables of $412.4 million. As of March 31, 2012, approximately $1.1 billion of accounts receivable had been sold to the special purpose entities for which the Company had received net cash proceeds of $556.8 million and deferred purchase price receivables of $514.9 million. The deferred purchase price receivables are included in other current assets as of March 31, 2013 and 2012, and were carried at the expected recovery amount of the related receivables. The difference between the carrying amount of the receivables sold under these programs and the sum of the cash and fair value of the deferred purchase price receivables received at time of transfer is recognized as a loss on sale of the related receivables and recorded in interest and other expense, net in the consolidated statements of operations; such amounts were $7.2 million, $10.9 million and $8.0 million for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

For the fiscal years ended March 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, cash flows from sales of receivables under the ABS Programs consisted of approximately $3.5 billion, $4.7 billion and $2.4 billion, respectively for transfers of receivables (of which approximately $0.7 billion, $0.6 billion and $0.6 billion, respectively represented new transfers and the remainder proceeds from collections reinvested in revolving-period transfers).

The following table summarizes the activity in the deferred purchase price receivables account during the fiscal years ended March 31, 2013 and 2012:

The Company also sold accounts receivables to certain third-party banking institutions. The outstanding balance of receivables sold and not yet collected was approximately $163.6 million and $110.5 million as of March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. For the years ended March 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, total accounts receivables sold to certain third party banking institutions was approximately $1.1 billion, $2.0 billion and $2.5 billion, respectively. The receivables that were sold were removed from the consolidated balance sheets and were reflected as cash provided by operating activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows.

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required or permitted to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact, and it considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability. The accounting guidance for fair value establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument's categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The fair value hierarchy is as follows:

The Company has accrued for contingent consideration in connection with its business acquisitions, which is measured at fair value based on certain internal models and inputs. The following table summarizes the activities related to contingent consideration:

The Company values deferred purchase price receivables relating to its Asset-Backed Securitization Program based on a discounted cash flow analysis using unobservable inputs (i.e. level 3 inputs), which are primarily risk free interest rates adjusted for the credit quality of the underlying creditor Due to its high credit quality and short term maturity, their fair value approximates carrying value. Significant increases in either of the significant unobservable inputs (credit spread or risk free interest rate) in isolation would result in lower fair value estimates, however is insignificant. The interrelationship between these inputs is also insignificant. Refer to note 8 to the notes of consolidated financial statements for a reconciliation of the change in the deferred purchase price receivable.

The Company has warrants to purchase up to 1.35 million shares of the common stock of a certain supplier at a weighted-average price of $7.33 per share. The warrants expire on May 18, 2018. These fully vested warrants, which are derivative instruments, are fair valued at each reporting date with gains or losses from changes in fair value recognized in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company values these warrants based on the Black-Scholes option-valuation model using unobservable inputs classified as level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. Significant changes in any of the significant unobservable inputs in isolation would result in a change in the fair value estimate, but in each case, the amount would be insignificant. The interrelationship between these inputs is also insignificant. As of March 31, 2013, the Company used the following assumptions to fair value these warrants:

The following table summarizes the changes in the fair value adjustment of these warrants:

There were no transfers between levels in the fair value hierarchy during fiscal years 2013 and 2012.

The following table presents the Company's assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2013 and 2012:

The Company has certain long-lived assets that are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis, and are as follows:

Assets held for sale are recorded at the lesser of the carrying value or fair value, which is based on comparable sales from prevailing market data (level 2 inputs). As of March 31, 2013 and March 31, 2012, no impairment charges were recorded for assets that were no longer in use and held for sale which exclude those assets that have been identified as relating to discontinued operations as discussed further in note 18 to the consolidated financial statements. The assets held for sale primarily represent manufacturing facilities that have been closed as part of the Company's historical facility consolidations.

During the fiscal year 2013, the Company recognized impairment charges relating to certain long-lived assets classified as 'held-for-use' since the carrying value of such assets exceeded the fair value, based on the sales of comparable assets, as a result of its restructuring activities as further discussed in note 12 to the consolidated financial statements.

There were no material fair value adjustments or other transfers between levels in the fair value hierarchy for these long-lived assets during the fiscal years 2013 and 2012.

The following table presents the Company's liabilities not carried at fair value as at March 31, 2013 and 2012:

Revolving credit facility—The carrying amount approximates fair value due to the short term nature of the interest rates underlying any borrowings under this facility, though the facility itself is available to the Company on a long term basis.

Term loans dated October 1, 2007 and October 19, 2011—The term loans are valued based on broker trading prices in active markets.

Notes dated February 20, 2013—The notes are valued based on broker trading prices in active markets.

Asia term loans—The Company's Asia Term Loans are not traded publicly; however, as the pricing, maturity and other pertinent terms of these loans closely approximate those of the Term Loan Agreements dated October 1, 2007, and October 19, 2011, management estimates the respective trading prices would be approximately the same.

As of March 31, 2013 and 2012, the gross carrying amount and associated accumulated depreciation of the Company's property and equipment financed under capital leases, and the related obligations was not material. The Company also leases certain of its facilities and equipment under non-cancelable operating leases. These operating leases expire in various years through 2028 and require the following minimum lease payments:

Total rent expense amounted to $138.8 million, $160.5 million and $153.2 million in fiscal years 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

From time to time, we are subject to legal proceedings, claims, and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. We defend ourselves vigorously against any such claims. Although the outcome of these matters is currently not determinable, management expects that any losses that are probable or reasonably possible of being incurred as a result of these matters, which are in excess of amounts already accrued in its consolidated balance sheet, would not be material to the financial statements as a whole.

A number of countries in which the Company is located allow for tax holidays or provide other tax incentives to attract and retain business. In general, these holidays were secured based on the nature, size and location of the Company's operations. The aggregate dollar effect on the Company's income resulting from tax holidays and tax incentives to attract and retain business for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011 was $22.6 million, $41.8 million and $66.5 million, respectively. For the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013, the effect on basic and diluted earnings per share was $0.03 and $0.03, respectively, and the effect on basic and diluted earnings per share during fiscal years 2012 and 2011 were $0.06 and $0.06, and $0.09 and $0.08, respectively. Unless extended or otherwise renegotiated, the Company's existing holidays will expire in the fiscal years ending March 31, 2014 through fiscal year 2022.

Under its territorial tax system, Singapore generally does not tax foreign sourced income until repatriated to Singapore. The Company has included the effects of Singapore's territorial tax system in the rate differential line above. The tax effect of foreign income not repatriated to Singapore for the

fiscal years ended March 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011 were $26.7 million, $17.7 million and $32.6 million, respectively.

Utilization of the Company's deferred tax assets is limited by the future earnings of the Company in the tax jurisdictions in which such deferred assets arose. As a result, management is uncertain as to when or whether these operations will generate sufficient profit to realize any benefit from the deferred tax assets. The valuation allowance provides a reserve against deferred tax assets that are not more likely than not to be realized by the Company. However, management has determined that it is more likely than not that the Company will realize certain of these benefits and, accordingly, has recognized a deferred tax asset from these benefits. The change in valuation allowance is net of certain increases and decreases to prior year losses and other carryforwards that have no current impact on the tax provision. Approximately $34.0 million of the valuation allowance relates to income tax benefits arising from the exercise of stock options, which if realized will be credited directly to shareholders' equity and will not be available to benefit the income tax provision in any future period.

The Company has recorded a deferred tax asset of approximately $43.7 million associated with its tax loss and tax credit carryforwards. Approximately $21.1 million of this deferred tax asset is of

indefinite duration. The amount of the remaining deferred tax asset expires over the period from 2014 to 2032, of which the amount expiring in 2014 is insignificant.

The amount of deferred tax assets considered realizable, however, could be reduced or increased in the near-term if facts, including the amount of taxable income or the mix of taxable income between subsidiaries, differ from management's estimates.

The Company does not provide for income taxes on approximately $457.7 million of undistributed earnings of its foreign subsidiaries, as such earnings are not intended by management to be repatriated in the foreseeable future. Determination of the amount of the unrecognized deferred tax liability on these undistributed earnings is not practicable.

A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits is as follows:

	Fiscal Year Ended March 31,

	2013			2012
	(In thousands)
Balance, beginning of fiscal year	$	166,432		$	134,627
Additions based on tax position related to the current year		22,185			25,113
Additions for tax positions of prior years		62,610			25,719
Reductions for tax positions of prior years		(15,001	)		(18,257	)
Reductions related to lapse of applicable statute of limitations		(5,444	)		(788	)
Settlements		(1,220	)		(1,386	)
Other		456			1,404

Balance, end of fiscal year	$	230,018		$	166,432

The Company's unrecognized tax benefits are subject to change over the next twelve months primarily as a result of the expiration of certain statutes of limitations and as audits are settled. During the first quarter of fiscal year 2014, the liability for unrecognized tax benefits will decrease by approximately $13.2 million due to the settlement of a tax audit subsequent to the balance sheet date. The Company also believes it is reasonably possible that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits could decrease by an estimated range of $18.0 to $30.8 million within the next twelve months primarily due to potential settlements of various audits and the expiration of certain statutes of limitations.

The Company and its subsidiaries file federal, state, and local income tax returns in multiple jurisdictions around the world. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2001.

Of the $230 million of unrecognized tax benefits at March 31, 2013, $172.8 million will affect the annual effective tax rate if the benefits are eventually recognized. The amount that does not impact the effective tax rate relates to positions that would be settled with a tax loss carryforward previously subject to a valuation allowance.

The Company recognizes interest and penalties accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits within the Company's tax expense. During the fiscal years ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company recognized interest of approximately $5.1 million and $5.4 million, respectively, and no penalties. The

Company had approximately $11.9 million and $10.6 million accrued for the payment of interest as of the fiscal years ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The Company has not accrued for the payment of penalties for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

During fiscal year 2013 the Company initiated certain restructuring activities intended to improve its operational efficiencies by reducing excess workforce and capacity. Restructuring charges are recorded based upon employee termination dates, site closure and consolidation plans.

During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013, the Company recognized restructuring charges of approximately $227.4 million, of which $110.1 million was associated with the terminations of 9,138 identified employees in connection with the charges described above. The identified employee terminations by reportable geographic region amounted to approximately 4,467, 2,282, and 2,389 for Asia, the Americas and Europe, respectively. The costs associated with these restructuring activities include employee severance, other personnel costs, non-cash impairment charges on facilities and equipment that are not recoverable through future cash flows or are no longer in use and are to be disposed of, and other exit related costs due to facility closures or rationalizations. Pre-tax restructuring charges comprised of $123.0 million of cash charges predominantly related to employee severance costs and $104.4 million of non-cash charges primarily related asset impairment and other exit charges. The Company classified approximately $215.8 million of these charges as a component of cost of sales and approximately $11.6 million of these charges as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013.

The components of the restructuring charges by geographic region incurred during fiscal year 2013:

During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013 the Company recognized approximately $110.1 million of severance costs related to employee terminations. Approximately $98.5 million of this was classified as a component of cost of sales.

During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013 the Company recognized approximately $69.5 million for the write-down of property and equipment and other manufacturing assets, which are continuing to be held and used by the Company. The majority of this amount was classified as a component of cost of sales.

During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013, the Company recognized approximately $47.9 million of other exit costs, which primarily comprised of $22.8 million for the write-down of certain customer specific assets that were determined to be unrecoverable based on a specific product exit and resulting declining customer volumes. Additionally, other exit costs include $24.7 million of customer disengagement costs primarily related to inventory that resulted from a product exit as well as contractual obligations from facility closures and $0.4 million of other miscellaneous items.

During fiscal year 2013, the Company recognized a net gain of $74.4 million for the fair value adjustment of the Company's warrants to purchase common shares of a certain supplier. The fair value adjustment gain was partially off-set by a loss on the sales of two investments of $1.3 million.

During fiscal year 2012, the Company recognized a net gain of $20.0 million in connection with the sale of certain international entities.

During fiscal year 2011, the Company recognized charges totaling $6.3 million, consisting of the $13.2 million loss associated with the early redemption of the 6.25% Senior Subordinated Notes and an $11.7 million loss in connection with the divestiture of certain international entities. Refer to note 6 and note 15, respectively, for further discussion. These charges were partially offset by a gain of $18.6 million associated with the sale of an equity investment that was previously fully impaired.

For the fiscal years ended March 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, the Company recognized interest income of $20.0 million, $21.7 million and $14.0 million.

For the fiscal years ended March 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, the Company recognized interest expense of $68.9 million, $67.8 million and $88.7 million, respectively, on its debt obligations outstanding during the period.

For the fiscal years ended March 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, the Company recognized gains on foreign exchange transactions of $19.9 million, $39.7 million and $33.1 million, respectively.

The business and asset acquisitions described below were accounted for using the purchase method of accounting, and accordingly, the fair value of the net assets acquired and the results of the acquired businesses were included in the Company's consolidated financial statements from the acquisition dates forward. The Company has not finalized the allocation of the consideration for certain of its recently completed acquisitions and expects to complete these allocations within one year of the respective acquisition dates.

During fiscal year 2013, the Company completed its acquisition of all outstanding common stock of Saturn Electronics and Engineering, Inc. ("Saturn"), a supplier of electronics manufacturing services, solenoids and wiring for the automotive, appliance, consumer, energy and industrial markets. The acquisition of Saturn broadened the Company's service offering and strengthened its capabilities in the automotive and consumer electronics businesses. The results of operations were included in the Company's consolidated financial results beginning on the date of acquisition which amounted to approximately $100.9 million in revenue for the year ended March 31, 2013. Net income during fiscal year ended March 31, 2013 was not significant to the consolidated operating results of the Company.

The initial cash consideration for this acquisition amounted to $193.7 million with up to an additional $15.0 million of estimated potential contingent consideration, for a total purchase consideration of $208.7 million.

The allocation of the purchase price to Saturn's tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed was based on their estimated fair values as of the date of acquisition. Management determined the value of acquired intangible assets with the assistance of a third-party appraisal firm. Management is in the process of determining the fair value amounts for certain other assets and liabilities that were acquired. The excess of the purchase price over the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed has been allocated to goodwill.

The following represents the Company's allocation of the total purchase price to the acquired assets and liabilities assumed of Saturn (in thousands):


Current assets:
Cash and cash equivalents	$	2,191
Accounts receivable		44,879
Inventories		23,350
Other current assets		619

Total current assets		71,039
Property and equipment		43,227
Goodwill		98,746
Other intangible assets		57,200
Other assets		925

Total assets	$	271,137

Current liabilities:
Accounts payable	$	29,616
Other current liabilities		9,429

Total current liabilities		39,045
Other liabilities		23,401

Total aggregate purchase price	$	208,691

Intangible assets of $57.2 million in connection with the Saturn acquisition is comprised of customer-related intangible assets of $46.4 million and other intangible assets consisting of developed technology amounting to $10.8 million. Customer relationships are amortized over an estimated useful life of 5 years and developed technology is amortized over an estimated useful life of 7 years.

The above purchase price allocation includes certain purchase accounting adjustments recorded in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013, which resulted in a net decrease of $7.5 million to goodwill with corresponding increases to intangible assets amounting to $32.5 million and other liabilities amounting to $23.0 million. The increase in intangible assets was as a result of the finalization of the valuation for acquired intangible assets and the increase to other liabilities is primarily as a result of deferred tax liabilities recorded relating to intangible assets. As a result of this deferred tax liability, the Company released an amount of $22.3 million relating to valuation allowances for deferred tax assets in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013, and this amount is included in the provision for income taxes for the year ended March 31, 2013. In accordance with the accounting guidance applicable to business combinations, the Company has re-casted the operating results for the quarter ended December 31, 2012 to reflect the release of the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets. Refer to note 20 to the consolidated financial statements for further details.

Additionally, during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013, the Company completed three other acquisitions that were not individually, nor in the aggregate, significant to the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows. The total consideration, which was paid in cash

for these acquisitions, and earn outs related to certain prior period acquisitions amounted to $72.7 million. The total amount of cash acquired from these acquisitions amounted to $80.1 million, resulting in net cash of $7.4 million acquired for these acquisitions during the fiscal year ended 2013. One of the acquired businesses expanded the Company's capabilities primarily in the medical and defense markets; another acquired business will support the hardware product manufacturing needs of an existing customer in the technology industry; and the other acquired business will expand the Company's capabilities primarily in the LED design and manufacturing market. The Company primarily acquired cash, inventory and certain other manufacturing assets, and recorded goodwill of $61.9 million in connection with these acquisitions. The potential amount of future payments which the Company could be required to make under contingent consideration arrangements relating to these acquisitions is not material. The aggregate results of operations for these acquisitions were included in the Company's consolidated financial results beginning on the date of acquisition which amounted to approximately $231.3 million in revenue for the year ended March 31, 2013. Net income during fiscal year ended March 31, 2013 was not significant, individually or in the aggregate, to the consolidated operating results of the Company.

In connection with one of the acquisitions, the Company acquired certain manufacturing assets that were purchased by the acquired company on behalf of an existing customer and will be continued to be used exclusively for the benefit of this customer. These assets are financed by a third party banking institution acting as an agent of the customer under an agreement, the terms of which reset annually. While the Company has the option to settle this obligation in cash, the Company can also settle the obligation related to these assets by returning the respective assets to the customer and cannot be required to pay cash by either the customer or the third party banking institution to settle the obligation. Accordingly, these assets amounting to $251.3 million and the liability amounting to $272.8 million have been included in other current assets and other current liabilities, respectively as of March 31, 2013. The cash flows relating to the purchase of assets by the Company on behalf of the customer amounting to $115.3 million have been included in other investing cash flows for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013. Net cash inflows amounting to $101.9 million relating to the funding of these assets by the financial institution on behalf of the customer have been included in cash flows from other financing activities during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013. In conjunction with this acquisition, the Company amended its existing manufacturing agreement with the customer. As part of this agreement, the Company is obligated to reimburse the customer for any shortfall in production if the manufacturing contract is terminated prior to the delivery of a minimum volume of units to be manufactured over the term of the contract. The total commitment under this arrangement amounted to $88.0 million and declines over time as the Company continues to manufacture and deliver products under the arrangement. Payment of this guarantee is not probable as of March 31, 2013.

The Company continues to evaluate certain assets and liabilities related to business combinations completed during the recent periods. Additional information, which existed as of the acquisition date, may become known to the Company during the remainder of the measurement period, a period not to exceed 12 months from the acquisition date. Changes to amounts recorded as assets or liabilities may result in a corresponding adjustment to goodwill.

The goodwill generated from the Company's business combinations completed during the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013 is primarily related to value placed on the employee workforce, service offerings and capabilities, and expected synergies. The goodwill is not deductible for income tax purposes.

During fiscal year 2012, the Company completed three acquisitions that were not individually, nor in the aggregate significant to the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows. The aggregate cash paid for these acquisitions together with cash paid for contingent consideration related to certain prior period acquisitions during the year ended March 31, 2012 totaled approximately $92.3 million, net of cash acquired. The acquired businesses expanded the Company's capabilities in the communications market. The Company primarily acquired inventory and certain other manufacturing assets and recorded goodwill of $8.6 million and customer contract intangibles of $3.9 million in connection with the acquisitions.

During fiscal year 2011, the Company completed four acquisitions that were not individually, nor in the aggregate significant to the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows. The aggregate cash paid for these acquisitions together with cash paid for contingent consideration relating to certain prior period acquisitions during the year ended March 31, 2011 totaled approximately $17.0 million, net of cash acquired. The acquired businesses expanded the Company's capabilities in the medical and infrastructure business groups.

The consolidated financial statements include the operating results of each business combination from the date of acquisition and the related transaction costs incurred which are not material. Pro forma results of operations for the acquisitions completed have not been presented because the effects of the acquisitions, individually and in the aggregate, were not material to the Company's financial results.

On April 16, 2013, the Company completed its acquisition of certain manufacturing operations from Google's Motorola Mobility LLC, including a manufacturing and services agreement with mobile devices. The total purchase consideration for this acquisition amounted to $170.6 million. The Company primarily acquired inventory and fixed assets in connection with this acquisition. The financial results of this acquisition are not included in the consolidated financial statements for any period presented. A preliminary purchase price allocation is not yet available for this acquisition.

During fiscal year 2013, the Company repurchased approximately 51.7 million shares for an aggregate purchase value of approximately $334.0 million.

The Company's Board of Directors, on September 13, 2012, authorized the repurchase of up to 10% of the Company's outstanding ordinary shares which was approved by the Company's shareholders at the 2012 Extraordinary General Meeting held on August 30, 2012. Share repurchases by the Company under the share repurchase plans are subject to an aggregate limit of 10% of the Company's ordinary shares outstanding as of the date of the 2012 Extraordinary General Meeting. During fiscal year 2013, the Company repurchased approximately 31.3 million shares for an aggregate purchase value of approximately $200.0 million under this plan, including accrued expenses, and retired all of these shares. As of March 31, 2013, approximately 35.3 million shares were available to be repurchased under this plan.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company repurchased the entire remaining amount under a prior share repurchase plan that was approved by the Company's Board of Directors on December 7, 2011 and the Company's shareholders at the 2011 Extraordinary General Meeting held on July 22, 2011, or approximately 20.4 million shares for an aggregate purchase value of approximately $134.0 million, and retired all of these shares.

Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise for which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker, or decision making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company's chief operating decision maker is its Chief Executive Officer. As of March 31, 2013, the Company operates and internally manages a single operating segment, EMS.

The Company recorded restructuring charges during the third and fourth quarters of fiscal year 2013. The Company classified approximately $98.3 million and $117.5 million of these charges as a component of cost of sales during the third and fourth quarters of fiscal year 2013, respectively, and approximately $4.4 million and $7.2 million of these charges as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses during the third and fourth quarters of fiscal year 2013, respectively.

The Company recognized a $23.0 million gain as a component of other charges (income), net in the three-month period ended September 28, 2012 for the cumulative fair value adjustment of the Company's warrants to purchase common shares of a supplier. These fully-vested warrants, which are derivative instruments, are to be fair valued at each reporting date with gains or losses from changes in fair value recognized in the statements of operations. The gain from changes in fair value recognized in the three-month period ended September 28, 2012 includes an out-of-period adjustment of $12.8 million and for the year ended March 31, 2013 includes an out-of-period adjustment of $5.7 million. Management believes the impact of the error is not material to current or prior fiscal periods.

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company recorded certain purchase accounting adjustments as further discussed in note 15 to the consolidated financial statements which resulted in the release of $22.3 million related to the valuation allowances for deferred tax assets in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013. In accordance with the accounting guidance applicable to business combinations, the Company has re-casted the operating results for the quarter ended December 31, 2012 in the table above to reflect the release of the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets.

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company recognized an income tax benefit of $9.3 million that related to prior fiscal years, of which $6.1 million related to the fiscal year ended March 31, 2012 and $3.2 million related to years prior to fiscal 2012. Management believes the impact of this error is not material to current or prior fiscal periods.

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012, the Company identified certain accounting errors in the statutory to US GAAP adjustments at one of its foreign sites that originated in prior interim and annual periods. Management conducted additional procedures and concluded that these errors were isolated to that location. These errors, which primarily understated cost of sales, totaled $0.8 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2012 and $10.4 million and $8.0 million for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, and were corrected by the Company as an out-of-period adjustment in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012. This fourth quarter adjustment was partially offset by the correction of an error identified in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012 amounting to $4.2 million related to the provisions for income taxes in the prior fiscal 2012 interim periods. Management believes the impact of these items, both individually and in the aggregate, to the fiscal year ended March 31, 2012 and to prior fiscal and interim periods presented was not material. As a result of recording these adjustments in the fourth quarter, net income for the quarter and year ended March 31, 2012 were reduced by $21.5 million ($0.03 per share) and $24.9 million ($0.03 per share), respectively.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

Under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the Company has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of March 31, 2013. Based on that evaluation, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of March 31, 2013, such disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. As of March 31, 2013, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, an evaluation was conducted of the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO"). Based on that evaluation, management concluded that the Company's internal control over financial reporting was adequately designed and operating effectively as of March 31, 2013.

Because of its inherent limitations, a system of internal control over financial reporting can provide only reasonable assurance and may not prevent or detect misstatements or prevent or detect instances of fraud. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls may be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Management's annual assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2013 excluded the internal control over financial reporting of Saturn , which constitutes, in aggregate, 9.4% and 2.6% of net and total assets, respectively, and 0.4% of net sales and 0.4% of direct cost of sales of the consolidated financial statements as of and for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013.

The effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2013 has been audited by Deloitte & Touche LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report which appears in this Item under the heading "Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm."

On December 3, 2012, we completed the acquisition of Saturn, at which time Saturn became a subsidiary of the Company. See note 15 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information. Other than these business acquisitions, there were no changes in the Company's internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the year ended March 31, 2013 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, its internal controls over financial reporting.

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Flextronics International Ltd.
Singapore

We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of Flextronics International Ltd. and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of March 31, 2013, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. As described in Management's Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting, management excluded from its assessment the internal control over financial reporting at Saturn Electronics and Engineering Inc., which was acquired on December 3, 2012 and whose financial statements constitute 9.4% and 2.6% of net and total assets, respectively, 0.4% of net sales and 0.4% of direct cost of sales of the consolidated financial statement amounts as of and for the year ended March 31, 2013. Accordingly, our audit did not include the internal control over financial reporting at Saturn Electronics and Engineering Inc. The Company's management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management's Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

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

Because of the inherent limitations of internal control over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Also, projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of the internal control over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2013, based on the criteria established in Internal

Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended March 31, 2013 of the Company and our report dated May 28, 2013 expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements.

Information with respect to this item may be found in our definitive proxy statement to be delivered to shareholders in connection with our 2013 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders. Such information is incorporated by reference.
