Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
CERTAIN FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION:
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). These statements may generally be identified by the use of such words as "expect," "anticipate," "believe," "estimate," "intend," "predict," "project," or "will," or variations of such words and similar expressions are based on current expectations and entail various risks and uncertainties. Specific forward-looking statements and the associated risks and uncertainties contained within this Form 10-Q include, but are not limited to: (i) our beliefs with respect to the length and severity of the COVID-19 (coronavirus) outbreak, and its impact across our businesses, our operations and global supply chain, including (a) our expectations the virus has caused and will continue to cause an increase in customer and partner demand for our product lines, including increased demand in collaboration endpoints, and our ability to design new product offerings to meet the change in demand due to a global hybrid work environment, (b) our inability to source component parts from key suppliers in sufficient quantities necessary to meet the high demand for certain product lines, including our Enterprise Headsets and continued uncertainty and potential impact on future quarters if these sourcing constraints continue and/or price volatility occurs, which could continue to negatively affect our profitability and/or market share, (c) expectations related to our voice product lines, as well as our services attachment rate for such products, which have been, and may continue to be, negatively impacted as companies have delayed returning their workforces to offices in many countries due to the continued impact of COVID-19; (d) expectations related to our ability to fulfill the backlog generated by supply constraints, to timely supply the number of products to fulfill current and future customer demand, including expectations that our manufacturing facility in Tijuana, Mexico will continue production at the capacity necessary to meet such demand, (e) the impact of the virus on our distribution partners, resellers, end-user customers and our production facilities, including our ability to obtain alternative sources of supply if our production facility or other suppliers are impacted by future shut downs, (f) the impact if global or regional economic conditions deteriorate further, on our customers and/or partners, including increased demand for pricing accommodations, delayed payments, delayed deployment plans, insolvency or other issues which may increase credit losses, (g) risks related to restrictions or delays in global return to worksites as a result of COVID-19, which continues to impact our employees worldwide and our customers, which has negatively impacted our voice product lines for the quarter, and restricted customer engagement; and (h) the complexity of the forecast analysis and the design and operation of internal controls; and (ii) our belief that we can manufacture or supply products in a timely manner to satisfy perishable demand; (iii) expectations related to our customers’ purchasing decisions and our ability to pivot quickly enough and/or match product production to demand, particularly given long lead times and the difficulty of forecasting unit volumes and acquiring the component parts and materials to meet demand without having excess inventory or incurring cancellation charges; (iv) risks associated with significant and abrupt changes in product demand which increases the complexity of management’s evaluation of potential excess or obsolete inventory; (v) risks associated with the bankruptcy or financial weakness of distributors or key customers, or the bankruptcy of or reduction in capacity of our key suppliers; (vi) risks associated with the potential interruption in the supply of sole-sourced critical components, our ability to move to a dual-source model, and the continuity of component supply at costs consistent with our plans, which has negatively impacted in the quarter and may continue to impact our ability to timely supply product to meet our customer demand; (vii) expectations related to our services segment revenues, particularly as we introduce new generation, less complex, product solutions, or as companies shift from on premises to work from home options for their workforce, which may result in decreased demand for our professional, installation and/or managed service offerings; (viii) expectations that our current cash on hand, additional cash generated from operations, together with sources of cash through our credit facility, either alone or in combination with our election to suspend our dividend payments, will meet our liquidity needs during and following the unknown duration and impact of the COVID-19 pandemic; (ix) expectations relating to our ability to generate sufficient cash flow from operations to meet our debt covenants and timely repay all principal and interest amounts drawn under our credit facility as they become due; (x) risks associated with our channel partners’ sales reporting, product inventories and product sell through since we sell a significant amount of products to channel partners who maintain their own inventory of our products; (xi) our efforts to execute to drive sales and sustainable profitable revenue growth, to improve our profitability and cash flow, and accelerate debt reduction and de-levering; (xii) our expectations for new products launches, the timing of their releases and their expected impact on future growth and on our existing products; (xiii) our belief that our Partner Program will drive growth and profitability for both us and our partners through the sale of our product, services and solutions; (xiv) risks associated with forecasting sales and procurement demands, which are inherently difficult, particularly with continuing uncertainty in regional and global economic conditions; (xv) uncertainties attributable to currency fluctuations, including fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and/or new or greater tariffs on our products; (xvi) our expectations regarding our ability to control costs, streamline operations and successfully implement our various cost-reduction activities and realize anticipated cost savings under such cost-reduction initiatives; (xvii) expectations relating to our quarterly and annual earnings guidance, particularly as economic uncertainty, including, without limitation, uncertainty related to the
continued impact of COVID-19, the macro-economic and political climate and other external factors, puts further pressure on management judgments used to develop forward looking financial guidance and other prospective financial information; (xviii) expectations related to GAAP and non-GAAP financial results for the second quarter and full Fiscal Year 2021, including net revenues, adjusted EBITDA, tax rates, intangibles amortization, diluted weighted average shares outstanding and diluted EPS; (xix) our expectations of the impact of the acquisition of Polycom as it relates to our strategic vision and additional market and strategic partnership opportunities for our combined hardware, software and services offerings; (xx) our beliefs regarding the UC&C market, market dynamics and opportunities, and customer and partner behavior as well as our position in the market, including risks associated with the potential failure of our UC&C solutions to be adopted with the breadth and speed we anticipate; (xxi) our belief that the increased adoption of certain technologies and our open architecture approach has and will continue to increase demand for our solutions; (xxii) expectations related to the micro and macro-economic conditions in our domestic and international markets and their impact on our future business; (xxiii) our forecast and estimates with respect to tax matters, including expectations with respect to utilizing our deferred tax assets; (xxiv) our expectations related to building strategic alliances and key partnerships with providers of collaboration tools and platforms to drive revenue growth and market share; and (xxv) our expectations regarding pending and potential future litigation, in addition to other matters discussed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that are not purely historical data.

We have well-established distribution channels in the Americas, Europe, Middle East, Africa, and Asia Pacific where use of our products is widespread
COVID-19 Risks and Uncertainties
The novel strain of COVID-19 has continued to spread globally and continues to add uncertainty and influence global economic activity, the global supply chain and financial markets. The impact of the pandemic on our operations has varied by local conditions, government mandates and business limitations, including travel bans, remote work and other restrictions.
As a result, we continued to experience elevated demand for certain Enterprise Headsets and Video devices and a decline in demand for our Voice products, including a decline in the attachment rates for services associated with such products, as companies continued to shift from in-office to work-from-home arrangements for many of their office workers. The impact of COVID-19 is fluid and uncertain, and it has caused, and may continue to cause, various negative effects as we continue to experience periodic constraints in our supply chain, specifically the sourcing of certain components and raw materials, and increased logistics costs to meet the high customer demand for specific Headsets and Video products.
In responding to this pandemic, employee safety continues to be a critical concern to the Company and we have taken measures to protect our employees globally by adherence to public safety and shelter in place directives, physical distancing protocols within offices and manufacturing facilities, providing personal protective equipment, including face masks and hand sanitizers, conducting routine sanitation of facilities, requiring health monitoring before entry into Company facilities and restricting the number of visitors to our sites. The safety protocols implemented globally meet or exceed current regulations, however we continue to monitor employees’ safety and evolving regulatory requirements. Although our manufacturing facility remains open and certain office employees may utilize our offices when necessary, the majority of all non-factory employees continue to work from home, using headsets and other Company-issued equipment.
The full extent and duration of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business continues to be uncertain and difficult to predict and will depend on many factors outside of our control, including the extent and duration of the pandemic, mutations of the virus, the development and availability of effective treatments or vaccines, mandates of protective public safety measures, and the impact of the pandemic on the global economy, global supply chains, and demand for our products. It is not possible at this time to foresee whether the outbreak of COVID-19 or other events beyond our control will be effectively contained, nor can we estimate the entirety of the impact that COVID-19 or such other pandemics or natural or man-made disaster will have on the global economy, our business, customers, suppliers or other business partners. As such, impacts from such events to the Company are highly uncertain and the Company will continue to assess the impact from such events on our financial statements.
Second Quarter Fiscal Year 2021 Highlights
Total net revenues for the second quarter of Fiscal Year 2021 were $411 million, a decrease of $50.7 million or 11.0% compared to the same quarter in Fiscal Year 2020, primarily driven by lower net sales in our Voice and Consumer Headset revenues partially offset by increases in Enterprise Headset and Video revenues. Refer to further discussion on total net revenues in the Results of Operations below.
Product gross margins for the second quarter of Fiscal Year 2021 were 39.8 percent, a decrease of 220 basis points compared to the same quarter in Fiscal Year 2020, primarily driven by increases in logistics costs and factory capacity expansion for Headset and Video products. These unfavorable impacts were partially offset by changes in our product mix to higher margin Headset and Video products.
We repurchased $37.4 million of our outstanding debt, including $30 million of the Term B facility and $7.4 million of our 5.50% senior notes during the second quarter of Fiscal Year 2021.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
We group our operations into two reportable segments: Products and Services. Our Products segment consists of Headsets, Voice, and Video product categories and our Services segment consists of support, professional, managed, and cloud services and solutions.
NET REVENUES
The following table sets forth net revenues by reportable segment for the three and six months ended September 26, 2020 and September 28, 2019:

Products
Net products revenues decreased in the three and six months ended September 26, 2020 compared to the prior year periods, primarily due to the following:
•Voice product revenues declined as a result of the COVID-19 shift in demand toward "work from home" products.
•Consumer Headsets declined significantly year over year primarily due to our decision to discontinue certain low-margin mono and stereo products and the sale of our gaming headset assets in the fiscal fourth quarter of FY20.
•Partially offsetting the declines in Voice and Consumer, was growth in Enterprise Headset and Video net revenues driven by the COVID-19 shift toward "work from home" and the need for office workers to be able to effectively communicate and collaborate regardless of location. Although we continue to experience periodic supply constraints on certain headsets and new video products, we were able to ship a record number of headsets and video units during the quarter, Video demand was also driven by remote learning, telemedicine, and the continued ramp of our new video portfolio.
Services
Net revenues decreased slightly in the three and six months ended September 26, 2020 in our Support Services category due to the Video product mix shift from legacy Platform and Telepresence to recently launched Studio video bars, which are less complex, easier to install and operate, and carry optional service contracts. The decrease was mostly offset by the impact of the deferred revenue fair value adjustment resulting from the Polycom Acquisition.
The following table sets forth net revenues by geographic region for the three and six months ended September 26, 2020 and September 28, 2019:

United States (U.S.)
Compared to the same prior year period, U.S. net revenues for the three and six months ended September 26, 2020 decreased primarily due to declines in our Voice product revenues; a result of COVID-19 shift in demand toward "work from home" products. Our Consumer Headset product revenues declined driven by our decision to eliminate lower margin consumer products from our portfolio, including the Fiscal Year 2020 sale of gaming headset assets. Sales of our Enterprise Headset products declined slightly primarily due to a shift in product demand to UC&C products where we have experienced some supply shortages of component parts. These declines were partially offset by growth in our Video product revenues as new products ramp.
International
International net revenues for the three and six months ended September 26, 2020 decreased from the same prior year period primarily due to declines in Voice and Consumer Headset product revenues. These declines were partially offset by an increase in our Enterprise Headset product revenues.
During the three months ended September 26, 2020, changes in foreign exchange rates unfavorably impacted net revenues by $7.1 million, net of the effects of hedging, compared to a $3.8 million unfavorable impact on revenue in the prior year period.
During the six months ended September 26, 2020, changes in foreign exchange rates unfavorably impacted net revenues by $4.7 million, net of the effects of hedging, compared to a $7.7 million unfavorable impact on revenue in the prior year period.
COST OF REVENUES AND GROSS PROFIT
Cost of revenues consists primarily of direct and contract manufacturing costs, amortization of acquired technology, freight, warranty, charges for excess and obsolete inventory, depreciation, duties, royalties, and overhead expenses.

Products
Compared to the prior year period, gross profit as a percentage of net revenues decreased in the three months ended September 26, 2020, primarily due to COVID-19 related incremental manufacturing and logistics costs, fixed cost items spread over lower net revenues, and Video and Voice product transitions. Partially offsetting these unfavorable items was a decrease in intangible asset amortization expense resulting from the long-lived asset impairment of existing technology related to our Voice products in the fourth quarter of Fiscal Year 2020 and a favorable product mix.
Compared to the prior year period, gross profit as a percentage of net revenues decreased in the six months ended September 26, 2020, primarily due to COVID-19 related incremental manufacturing and logistics costs and fixed cost items spread over lower net revenues. Partially offsetting these unfavorable items was a decrease in intangible asset amortization expense resulting from the long-lived asset impairment of existing technology related to our Voice products in the fourth quarter of Fiscal Year 2020 and favorable product mix.
Given the significant variances in gross profit percentages between our higher and lower margin products, gross profit percentages may be impacted by variations in product mix and other factors, including production levels, distribution channels, and return rates.
Services
Compared to the prior year period, the gross profit as a percentage of net revenues increased in the three and six months ended September 26, 2020, primarily due to the decrease in the Polycom acquisition-related deferred revenue fair value adjustment and a lower fixed cost base.

Research, development, and engineering expenses decreased during the three and six months ended September 26, 2020 when compared to the prior year period primarily due to lower compensation expense driven by reduction in headcount, cost control efforts, and decreased expenses due to COVID-19 restrictions.
Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased during the three months ended September 26, 2020 when compared to the prior year period primarily due to lower compensation expense driven by reduced headcount, cost control efforts, and decreased travel expenses due to COVID-19 restrictions. The decreases were partially offset by higher incentive compensation when compared to the prior year period. Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased during the six months ended September 26, 2020 when compared to the prior year period primarily due to integration related expenses that did not occur in the current period, lower compensation expense, driven by reduced headcount and lower sales commissions, decreased expenses due to COVID-19 restrictions, and other cost control efforts.
During the six months ended September 26, 2020 we recorded litigation charges for settlements that occurred during the period. See Note 7, Commitments and Contingencies, of the accompanying notes to condensed consolidated financial statements for further information regarding on-going litigation.
Compared to the prior year period, restructuring and other related charges increased in the six months ended September 26, 2020, primarily due to restructuring actions initiated during the period to reduce expenses and optimize our cost structure and align with projected revenue levels. These actions consisted of headcount reductions and office closures. For more information regarding restructuring activities, see Note 9, Restructuring and Other Related Charges, of the accompanying notes to condensed consolidated financial statements.

Interest expense decreased for the three and six months ended September 26, 2020 primarily due to a lower outstanding balance on the term loan facility, the gains recognized on the repurchase of outstanding debt, and lower interest rates. See Note 8, Debt, of the accompanying notes to condensed consolidated financial statements.

The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to taxation in the U.S. and in various foreign and state jurisdictions. Our income tax expense or benefit is determined using an estimate of our annual effective tax rate and adjusted for discrete items that are taken into account in the relevant period. The effective tax rates for the three months ended September 26, 2020 and September 28, 2019 were (29.0)% and 13.7%, respectively. The effective tax rates for the six months ended September 26, 2020 and September 28, 2019 were 0.2% and 14.2%, respectively.
The change in our effective tax rate for the three and six months ended September 26, 2020 relative to the prior year is primarily due to a benefit from internal intangible property restructuring between our wholly-owned subsidiaries to better align the IP structure to our evolving operations.
Management assesses the available positive and negative evidence to estimate whether sufficient future taxable income will be generated to permit use of the existing deferred tax assets. A significant piece of objective negative evidence evaluated was the cumulative loss incurred over the two-year period ended March 28, 2020 and Fiscal Year 2021 forecasted results in the U.S. Such objective evidence limits the ability to consider other subjective evidence, such as our projections for future growth. On the basis of this evaluation, as of September 26, 2020, a valuation allowance against U.S. federal and state deferred tax assets continues to be maintained for the three months ended September 26, 2020.
As of September 26, 2020, we had approximately $86.3 million in non-US net deferred tax assets ("DTAs") after valuation allowance. A significant portion of our DTAs relate to internal intangible property restructuring between wholly-owned subsidiaries. At this time, based on evidence currently available, we consider it more likely than not that we will have sufficient taxable income in the future that will allow us to realize our DTAs; however, failure to generate sufficient future taxable income could result in some or all DTAs not being utilized in the future. If we are unable to generate sufficient future taxable income, a substantial valuation allowance to reduce our DTAs may be required.

Cash used for investing activities | | $ | (9,219) | | | $ | (7,754) | |
Cash used for financing activities | | $ | (32,881) | | | $ | (39,587) | |
| | | | |
Our cash and cash equivalents as of September 26, 2020 consisted of bank deposits with third party financial institutions. We monitor bank balances in our operating accounts and adjust the balances as appropriate. Cash balances are held throughout the world, including substantial amounts held outside of the U.S. As of September 26, 2020, of our $227.9 million of cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments, $129.4 million was held domestically while $98.5 million was held by foreign subsidiaries, and approximately 73% was based in USD-denominated instruments. Our remaining investments were composed of Mutual Funds.
During the six months ended September 26, 2020, cash generated by operating activities of $40.3 million was a result of $88.4 million of net loss, non-cash adjustments to net loss of $119.6 million and an increase in the net change in operating assets and liabilities of $9.1 million. Cash used in investing activities of $(9.2) million during the six months ended September 26, 2020 consisted primarily of cash used to acquire property, plant and equipment of $10.9 million and partially offset by proceeds from assets held for sales of $1.9 million. Cash used in financing activities of $(32.9) million during the six months ended September 26, 2020 consisted primarily of $35.6 million repayment of long-term debt and $3.0 million for taxes paid on behalf of employees related to net share settlements of vested employee equity awards. The uses of cash were partially offset by $5.7 million of proceeds from issuance of common stock from our Employee Stock Purchase Plan ("ESPP").
During the six months ended September 28, 2019, cash generated by operating activities of $33.6 million was a result of $70.8 million of net loss, non-cash adjustments to net loss of $117.3 million and a decrease in the net change in operating assets and liabilities of $12.9 million. Cash used in investing activities of $(7.8) million during the six months ended September 28, 2019 consisted primarily of cash used to acquire property, plant and equipment of $9.3 million partially offset by proceeds from the sale of real property of $2.1 million. Cash used in financing activities of $(39.6) million during the six months ended September 28, 2019 consisted primarily of early repayment of long-term debt of $25.0 million, payment of the quarterly dividend on our common stock of $11.9 million, and taxes paid on behalf of employees related to net share settlements of vested employee equity awards of $9.3 million. The uses of cash were partially offset by proceeds from issuance of common stock from our Employee Stock Purchase Plan ("ESPP") of $6.6 million.
Debt
In July 2018, in connection with the Acquisition, we entered into a Credit Agreement (the "Credit Agreement") with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent, and the lenders party thereto and borrowed the full amount available under the term loan facility of $1.245 billion, net of approximately $30 million of discounts and issuance costs. During the second quarter of Fiscal Year 2021, we repurchased $30.0 million of our outstanding principal and recorded an immaterial gain on the extinguishment of debt. As of September 26, 2020, we had $1.099 billion of the term loan outstanding.
On February 20, 2020, we entered into an Amendment No. 2 to the Credit Agreement (the “Amendment”) in order to relax certain financial covenants on the revolving line of credit. The financial covenants under the Credit Agreement are for the
benefit of the revolving credit lenders only and do not apply to any other debt of the Company. As of September 26, 2020, the Company has five outstanding letters of credit on the revolving credit facility for a total of $1.4 million and had $98.6 million available under the revolving line of credit. As of September 26, 2020, the Company was in compliance with the financial covenants.
On July 30, 2018, we entered into a 4-year amortizing interest rate swap agreement with Bank of America, N.A. The swap has an initial notional amount of $831 million and matures on July 31, 2022. During the six months ended September 26, 2020, the Company reclassified into interest expense $7.3 million and recorded a $15.9 million unrealized loss on its interest rate swap derivative designated as a cash flow hedge.
During Fiscal Year 2016, we obtained $488.4 million from debt financing, net of issuance costs. The debt matures on May 31, 2023 and bears interest at an annual rate of 5.50%. During the second quarter of Fiscal Year 2021 we repurchased $7.4 million of our outstanding principal and recorded an immaterial gain on the extinguishment of debt. As of September 26, 2020, we had $488.8 million of debt outstanding.
We may at any time and from time to time, depending on market conditions and prices, continue to retire or purchase our outstanding debt through cash purchases and/or exchanges for equity or debt, in open-market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. Such repurchases or exchanges, if any, will be upon such terms and at such prices as we may determine, and will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors.
Further information regarding the Company’s debt issuances and related hedging activity can be found in Note 8, Debt and Note 13, Derivatives, of the accompanying notes to condensed consolidated financial statements.
Capital Return Program
On November 28, 2018, the Board approved a 1 million share repurchase program expanding our capacity to repurchase shares to approximately 1.7 million shares. During the first half of Fiscal Year 2021, we did not repurchase any shares of our common stock. As of September 26, 2020, there remained 1,369,014 shares authorized for repurchase under the existing stock repurchase program. See Note 11, Common Stock Repurchases, of the accompanying notes to condensed consolidated financial statements.
We believe that our current cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, cash provided by operations, and availability of additional funds under the Credit Agreement, as amended from time to time, will be sufficient to fund our operations. However, any projections of future financial needs and sources of working capital are subject to uncertainty on our financial results. Readers are cautioned to review the risks, uncertainties, and assumptions set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including the section entitled "Certain Forward-Looking Information" and the risk factors set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 28, 2020, filed with the SEC on June 8, 2020, and other periodic filings with the SEC, any of which could affect our estimates for future financial needs and sources of working capital.
OFF BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS AND CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS
We have not entered into any transactions with unconsolidated entities whereby we have financial guarantees, subordinated retained interests, derivative instruments, or other contingent arrangements that expose us to material continuing risks, contingent liabilities, or any other obligation under a variable interest in an unconsolidated entity that provides us with financing and liquidity support, market risk, or credit risk support.
Consigned Inventory
A substantial portion of the raw materials, components, and subassemblies used in our products are provided by our suppliers on a consignment basis. These consigned inventories are not recorded on our consolidated balance sheet until we take title to the raw materials, components, and subassemblies, which occurs when they are consumed in the production process. Prior to consumption in the production process, our suppliers bear the risk of loss and retain title to the consigned inventory. The agreements allow us to return parts in excess of maximum order quantities to the suppliers at the supplier’s expense. Returns for other reasons are negotiated with the suppliers on a case-by-case basis and to date have been immaterial. If our suppliers were to discontinue financing consigned inventory, it would require us to make cash outlays and we could incur expenses which, if material, could negatively affect our business and financial results. As of September 26, 2020, and March 28, 2020, we had off-balance sheet consigned inventories of $42.1 million and $21.7 million, respectively.
Unconditional Purchase Obligations
We use several contract manufacturers to manufacture raw materials, components, and subassemblies for our products through our supply of demand information that typically covers periods up to 13 weeks. The contract manufacturers use this information to acquire components and build products. We also obtain individual components for our products from a wide variety of individual suppliers using a combination of purchase orders, supplier contracts, including annual minimum purchase obligations, and open orders based on projected demand information. As of September 26, 2020, we had outstanding off-balance sheet third-party manufacturing, component purchase, and other general and administrative commitments of $420.4 million, including the off-balance sheet consigned inventories of $42.1 million.
Except as described above, there have been no material changes in our contractual obligations as described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 28, 2020.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
For a complete description of what we believe to be the critical accounting estimates used in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements, refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 28, 2020, filed with the SEC on June 8, 2020. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting estimates during the six months ended September 26, 2020.

PLANTRONICS, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements ("financial statements") of Plantronics, Inc. ("the Company") have been prepared on a basis materially consistent with the Company's March 28, 2020 audited consolidated financial statements and include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to fairly state the information set forth herein. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") applicable to interim financial information and in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 28, 2020, which was filed with the SEC on June 8, 2020. The results of operations for the interim period ended September 26, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire fiscal year or any future period.
The financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
The Company’s fiscal year ends on the Saturday closest to the last day of March. The Company’s current and prior fiscal years end on March 27, 2021 and March 28, 2020, respectively, and both consist of 52 weeks. The Company’s results of operations for the three and six months ended September 26, 2020 and September 28, 2019 both contain 13 weeks.
Risks and uncertainties
As described in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 28, 2020, which was filed with the SEC on June 8, 2020, the Company is subject to a greater degree of uncertainty than normal in making the judgments and estimates needed to apply its significant accounting policies as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company continues to assess various accounting estimates and other matters in context to the unknown future impacts of COVID-19 using information that is reasonably available as of the issuance date of the condensed consolidated financial statements. The severity of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company's business will depend on a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the duration and severity of the pandemic and the extent and severity of the impact on its customers and suppliers, all of which are uncertain and cannot be predicted. As of the date of issuance of these condensed consolidated financial statements, the extent to which the pandemic may materially impact the Company's financial condition, liquidity, or results of operations is uncertain.
Reclassifications
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with current year presentation. Each of the reclassifications was immaterial and had no effect on the Company's results of operations.
2. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Recently Adopted Pronouncement
In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued guidance regarding the measurement of credit losses on financial instruments, which changes the impairment model for most financial assets. The new model uses a forward-looking expected loss method, which will generally result in earlier recognition of allowances for losses. The Company adopted the new standard effective March 29, 2020, using a modified retrospective transition method, which requires a cumulative-effect adjustment, if any, to the opening balance of retained earnings to be recognized on the date of adoption with prior periods not restated. The adoption had an immaterial impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
3. CASH, CASH EQUIVALENTS, AND INVESTMENTS

As of September 26, 2020, and March 28, 2020, all of the Company's investments are classified as trading securities and are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses included in current period earnings. For more information regarding the Company's deferred compensation plan, see Note 4, Deferred Compensation.
The Company did not incur any material realized or unrealized gains or losses in the three months ended September 26, 2020, and September 28, 2019. The Company recognized an unrealized gain of $1.8 million during the six months ended September 26, 2020. The Company did not incur any material realized or unrealized gains or losses in the six months ended September 28, 2019.
There were no transfers between fair value measurement levels during the three and six months ended September 26, 2020, and September 28, 2019.
All financial assets and liabilities are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements. Fair value is estimated by applying the following hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into three levels and bases the categorization within the hierarchy upon the lowest level of input that is available and significant to the fair value measurement:
Level 1
The Company's Level 1 financial assets consist of Mutual Funds and Money Market Funds. The fair value of Level 1 financial instruments is measured based on the quoted market price of identical securities.
Level 2
The Company's Level 2 financial assets and liabilities consist of derivative foreign currency contracts, an interest rate swap, a term loan facility, and 5.50% Senior Notes. The fair value of the Level 2 derivative foreign currency contracts and interest rate swap are determined using pricing models that use observable market inputs. For more information regarding the Company's derivative assets and liabilities, see Note 13, Derivatives. The fair value of the Level 2 5.50% Senior Notes and term loan facility are determined based on inputs that were observable in the market, including the trading price of the notes when available. For more information regarding the Company's 5.50% Senior Notes and term loan facility, see Note 8, Debt.
Level 3
The Company's revolving credit facility falls under the Level 3 hierarchy. The fair value of the Level 3 revolving credit facility is determined based on inputs that were unobservable in the market. For more information regarding the Company's debt, refer to Note 8, Debt.
4. DEFERRED COMPENSATION
As of September 26, 2020, the Company held investments in mutual funds with a fair value totaling $14.0 million, all of which related to debt and equity securities that are held in rabbi trusts under non-qualified deferred compensation plans.

As of March 28, 2020, the Company held investments in mutual funds with a fair value totaling $11.8 million, all of which related to debt and equity securities that are held in a rabbi trust under non-qualified deferred compensation plans.

The Company maintains a provision for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments. The Company regularly performs credit evaluations of its customers’ financial conditions and considers factors such as historical experience, credit quality, age of the accounts receivable balances, geographic or country-specific risks, and economic conditions that may affect a customer’s ability to pay, including any reasonable and supportable forecasts of the future.
For the three months ended September 26, 2020, our assessment considered business and market disruptions caused by COVID-19 and estimates of credit and collectability trends. The continued volatility in market conditions and evolving shifts in credit trends are difficult to predict, causing variability and volatility that may impact our allowance for credit losses in future periods.
As a result of the Polycom Acquisition (the "Acquisition"), the Company assumed a financing agreement with an unrelated third-party financing company (the "Financing Agreement") whereby the Company offers distributors and resellers direct or indirect financing on their purchases of Polycom's products and services. In return, the Company agrees to pay the financing company a fee based on a pre-defined percentage of the transaction amount financed. In certain instances, these financing arrangements result in a transfer of the Company's receivables, without recourse, to the financing company. If the transaction meets the applicable criteria under Topic 860 and is accounted for as a sale of financial assets, the related accounts receivable is excluded from the balance sheet upon receipt of the third-party financing company's payment remittance. In certain legal jurisdictions, the arrangements that involve maintenance services or products bundled with maintenance at one price do not qualify as a sale of financial assets in accordance with the authoritative guidance. Accordingly, accounts receivable related to these arrangements are accounted for as a secured borrowing in accordance with Topic 860, and the Company records a liability for any cash received, while maintaining the associated accounts receivable balance until the distributor or reseller remits payment to the third-party financing company.
During the quarter ended September 26, 2020, total transactions entered pursuant to the terms of the Financing Agreement were approximately $23.6 million, of which $23.6 million was related to the transfer of the financial asset. During the quarter ended September 28, 2019, total transactions entered pursuant to the terms of the Financing Agreement were approximately $44.9 million, of which $27.9 million was related to the transfer of the financial assets. The financing of these receivables accelerated the collection of cash and reduced the Company's credit exposure. Included in "Accounts receivables, net" in the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 26, 2020 and March 28, 2020 was approximately $13.0 million and $22.5 million, respectively due from the financing company, of which $13.0 million and $16.5 million, respectively was related to accounts receivable transferred. Total fees incurred pursuant to the Financing Agreement were immaterial for the quarters ended September 26, 2020 and September 28, 2019. These fees are recorded as a reduction to revenue on the Company's condensed consolidated statements of operations.

During the fourth quarter of Fiscal Year 2020, the Company experienced a sustained decrease in its stock price and determined that it was more likely than not that the carrying value of the Company's reporting units exceeded their fair value. Additionally, during the fourth quarter of Fiscal Year 2020, the Company made key changes to its executive management, which ultimately resulted in a change to the composition of its reportable segments and consequently a change from one to four reporting units – Headsets, Voice, Video, and Services. These changes resulted in an impairment charge of $483.7 million in the fourth quarter of Fiscal Year 2020.

Other Guarantees and Obligations
In the ordinary course of business, the Company may provide indemnifications of varying scope and terms to customers, vendors, lessors, business partners, purchasers of assets or subsidiaries and other parties with respect to certain matters, including, but not limited to, losses arising out of the Company's breach of agreements or representations and warranties made by the Company, services to be provided by the Company, intellectual property infringement claims made by third parties or, with respect to the sale of assets of a subsidiary, matters related to the Company's conduct of business and tax matters prior to the sale. From time to time, the Company indemnifies customers against combinations of loss, expense, or liability arising from various triggering events relating to the sale and use of its products and services.
In addition, the Company also provides indemnification to customers against claims related to undiscovered liabilities, additional product liability, or environmental obligations. The Company has also entered into indemnification agreements with its directors, officers and certain other personnel that will require the Company, among other things, to indemnify them against certain liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service as directors or officers of the Company or certain of its affiliated entities. The Company maintains director and officer liability insurance, which may cover certain liabilities arising from its obligation to indemnify its directors, officers and certain other personnel in certain circumstances. It is not possible to determine the aggregate maximum potential loss under these agreements due to the limited history of prior claims and the unique facts and circumstances involved in each particular claim. Such indemnification obligations might not be subject to maximum loss clauses. Historically, the Company has not incurred material costs as a result of obligations under these agreements and it has not accrued any liabilities related to such indemnification obligations in the condensed consolidated financial statements.
Claims and Litigation
On October 12, 2012, GN Netcom, Inc. (“GN”) filed a complaint against the Company in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware (“Court”), alleging violations of Sections 1 and 2 of the Sherman Act, Section 3 of the Clayton Act, and tortious interference with business relations in connection with the Company’s distribution of corded and wireless headsets. On July 13, 2020 the parties resolved the dispute and the matter was dismissed.
On January 23, 2018, FullView, Inc. filed a complaint in the United States District Court of the Northern District of California against Polycom, Inc. alleging infringement of two patents and thereafter filed a similar complaint in connection with the same patents in Canada. Polycom thereafter filed an inter partes reexamination ("IPR") of one of the patents, which was then appealed to Federal Circuit Court and denied. Litigation in both matters in the United States and Canada, respectively, were stayed pending the results of that appeal. Polycom also filed an IPR of the second patent and the PTAB denied institution of the IPR petition. FullView had also initiated arbitration proceedings under a terminated license agreement with Polycom alleging that Polycom had failed to pay certain royalties due under that agreement. The arbitration panel awarded an immaterial amount to FullView. FullView filed a First and Second Amended Complaint and Polycom filed a motion to dismiss. The Court granted Polycom's partial motion to dismiss without prejudice and invalidated one of the patents in suit. Litigation on the remaining patent is ongoing.
On June 21, 2018, directPacket Research Inc. filed a complaint alleging patent infringement by Polycom in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, Norfolk Division. The Court granted Polycom’s Motion to Transfer Venue to the Northern District of California. Polycom filed petitions for Inter Partes Review of the asserted patents which were granted by the U.S. Patent Trial and Appeal Board. The District Court matter is stayed pending resolution of the IPRs. Oral argument was heard on the IPRs on October 20, 2020 with ruling expected on or around January 2021.
On November 15, 2019, Felice Bassuk, individually and on behalf of others similarly situated, filed a complaint against Plantronics, its CEO Joseph Burton, its CFO Charles Boynton and its former CFO Pamela Strayer alleging various securities law violations. Plaintiffs filed the amended complaint on June 5, 2020 and the Company’s Motion to Dismiss the Amended Complaint was filed on August 7, 2020. Plaintiffs filed their Opposition on October 2, 2020 with Plantronics’ reply due on November 16, 2020. The hearing on the Motion to Dismiss currently is scheduled to occur on January 13, 2021.
On December 17, 2019, Cisco Systems, Inc. filed a First Amended Complaint for Trade Secret Misappropriation against Plantronics, Inc. and certain individuals which amends a previously filed complaint against certain other individuals. The Company disputes the allegations. The Company filed a Motion to Dismiss. The Court granted the Motion to Dismiss with leave to amend as to Defendants He, Chung and Williams, granted the Motion to Compel Arbitration for Defendant Williams and granted in part and denied in part the Motion to Dismiss by Defendants Puorro and Poly. Cisco filed an Amended Complaint and the Defendants have moved to dismiss or strike portions of the Amended Complaint. The Court granted in part and denied in part the Motion to Dismiss. The matter is ongoing.
On July 22, 2020, Koss Corporation sued Plantronics and Polycom in the Western District of Texas, Waco division alleging patent infringement with respect to four Koss patents. The Company answered the Complaint on October 1, 2020 disputing the claims. The matter is ongoing.
In addition to the specific matters discussed above, the Company is involved in various legal proceedings and investigations arising in the normal course of conducting business. Where applicable, in relation to the on-going matters described above, the Company has accrued an amount that reflects the aggregate liability deemed probable and estimable, but this amount is not material to the Company's financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. The Company is not able to estimate an amount or range of any reasonably possible loss, including in excess of any amount accrued, because of the preliminary nature of many of these proceedings, the difficulty in ascertaining the applicable facts relating to many of these proceedings, the variable treatment of claims made in many of these proceedings, and the difficulty of predicting the settlement value of many of these proceedings. However, based upon the Company's historical experience, the resolution of these proceedings is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. The Company may incur substantial legal fees, which are expensed as incurred, in defending against these legal proceedings.
8. DEBT
The estimated fair value and carrying value of the Company's outstanding debt as of September 26, 2020 and March 28, 2020 were as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| September 26, 2020 | | March 28, 2020 |
(in thousands) | Fair Value | | Carrying Value | | Fair Value | | Carrying Value |
5.50% Senior Notes | $ | 441,455 | | | $ | 488,830 | | | $ | 359,140 | | | $ | 495,409 | |
Term loan facility | $ | 1,053,992 | | | $ | 1,098,726 | | | $ | 852,942 | | | $ | 1,126,285 | |
As of September 26, 2020, and March 28, 2020, the net unamortized discount, premium and debt issuance costs on the Company's outstanding debt were $21.9 million and $25.1 million, respectively.
5.50% Senior Notes
In May 2015, the Company issued $500.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.50% senior notes (the “5.50% Senior Notes”). The 5.50% Senior Notes mature on May 31, 2023, and bear interest at a rate of 5.50% per annum, payable semi-annually on May 15 and November 15, commencing on November 15, 2015. The Company received net proceeds of $488.4 million from the issuance of the 5.50% Senior Notes, net of issuance costs of $11.6 million which are being amortized to interest expense over the term of the 5.50% Senior Notes using the effective interest method. A portion of the proceeds was used to repay all then-outstanding amounts under the Company's revolving line of credit agreement with Wells Fargo Bank and the remaining proceeds were used primarily for share repurchases.
The fair value of the 5.50% Senior Notes was determined based on inputs that were observable in the market, including the trading price of the 5.50% Senior Notes when available (Level 2).
The Company may redeem all or a part of the 5.50% Senior Notes, upon not less than 30 or more than a 60-day notice; however, the applicable redemption price is the principal plus a premium which declines over time as specified in the applicable indenture, together with accrued and unpaid interest.
In addition, upon the occurrence of certain change of control triggering events, the Company may be required to repurchase the 5.50% Senior Notes, at a price equal to 101% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of repurchase. The 5.50% Senior Notes contain restrictive covenants that, among other things, limit the Company's ability to create certain liens and enter into sale and lease-back transactions; create, assume, incur, or guarantee additional indebtedness of its subsidiaries without such subsidiary guaranteeing the 5.50% Senior Notes on an unsecured unsubordinated basis; and consolidate or merge with, or convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries, to another person. During the three months ended September 26, 2020, the Company repurchased $7.4 million aggregate principal amount of the 5.50% Senior Notes. The Company recorded an immaterial gain on the repurchase, which is included in interest expense of the Company's condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Credit Facility Agreement
In connection with the Polycom Acquisition completed on July 2, 2018, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent, and the lenders party thereto (the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement replaced the Company’s prior revolving credit facility in its entirety. The Credit Agreement provides for (i) a revolving credit facility with an initial maximum aggregate amount of availability of $100 million that matures in July 2023 and (ii) a $1.275 billion term loan facility priced at LIBOR plus 250bps due in quarterly principal installments commencing on the
last business day of March, June, September and December beginning with the first full fiscal quarter ending after the Closing Date for the aggregate principal amount funded on the Closing Date multiplied by 0.25% (subject to prepayments outlined in the Credit Agreement) and all remaining outstanding principal due at maturity in July 2025. The Company borrowed the full amount available under the term loan facility of $1.245 billion, net of approximately $30 million of discounts and issuance costs which are being amortized to interest expense over the term of the agreement using the straight-line method which approximates the effective interest method for this debt. The proceeds from the initial borrowing under the Credit Agreement were used to finance the Acquisition, to refinance certain debt of Polycom, and to pay related fees, commissions and transaction costs. The Company has additional borrowing capacity under the Credit Agreement through the revolving credit facility which could be used to provide ongoing working capital and capital for other general corporate purposes of the Company and its subsidiaries. The Company’s obligations under the Credit Agreement are currently guaranteed by Polycom and will from time to time be guaranteed by, subject to certain exceptions, any domestic subsidiaries that may become material in the future. Subject to certain exceptions, the Credit Agreement is secured by first-priority perfected liens and security interests in substantially all of the personal property of the Company and each subsidiary guarantor and will from time to time also be secured by certain material real property that the Company or any subsidiary guarantor may acquire. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest due on a quarterly basis at a variable rate equal to (i) LIBOR plus a specified margin, or (ii) the base rate (which is the highest of (a) the prime rate publicly announced from time to time by Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, (b) the federal funds rate plus 0.50% or (c) the sum of 1% plus one-month LIBOR) plus a specified margin. The Company must also pay (i) an unused commitment fee ranging from 0.200% to 0.300% per annum of the average daily unused portion of the aggregate revolving credit commitments under the Credit Agreement, and (ii) a per annum fee equal to (a) for each performance standby letter of credit outstanding under the Credit Agreement with respect to non-financial contractual obligations, 50% of the applicable margin over LIBOR under the revolving credit facility in effect from time to time multiplied by the daily amount available to be drawn under such letter of credit, and (b) for each other letter of credit outstanding under the Credit Agreement, the applicable margin over LIBOR under the revolving credit facility in effect from time to time multiplied by the daily amount available to be drawn under such letter of credit.
On February 20, 2020, the Company entered into an Amendment No. 2 to Credit Agreement (the “Amendment”) by and among the Company, the financial institutions party thereto as lenders and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent (in such capacity, the “Agent”). The Amendment amended the Credit Agreement, as previously amended to (i) increase the maximum Secured Net Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) permitted under the Credit Agreement to 3.75 to 1.00 through December 26, 2020 and 3.00 to 1.00 thereafter and (ii) decrease the minimum Interest Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) required under the Credit Agreement to 2.25 to 1.00 through December 26, 2020 and 2.75 to 1.00 thereafter.
Additionally, the Amendment modified the calculation of the Secured Net Leverage Ratio and the Interest Coverage Ratio solely for purposes of compliance with Sections 7.11(a) and 7.11(b) of the Credit Agreement to (i) calculate the Secured Net Leverage Ratio net of the aggregate amount of unrestricted cash and Cash Equivalents (as defined in the Credit Agreement) on the balance sheet of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries (as defined in the Credit Agreement) as of the date of calculation up to an amount equal to $150,000,000 and (ii) solely for purposes of any fiscal quarter ending from December 29, 2019 through December 26, 2020, increase the cap on Expected Cost Savings (as defined in the Credit Agreement) in determining Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Agreement) to the greater of (A) 20% of Consolidated EBITDA for such Measurement Period (as defined in the Credit Agreement) (calculated before giving effect to any such Expected Cost Savings to be added back pursuant to clause (a)(ix) of the definition of Consolidated EBITDA) and (B)(x) for the period from December 29, 2019 through March 28, 2020, $121,000,000, (y) for the period from March 29, 2020 through June 27, 2020, $107,000,000 and (z) for the period from June 28, 2020 through December 26, 2020, $88,000,000.
The financial covenants under the Credit Agreement described above are for the benefit of the revolving credit lenders only and do not apply to any other debt of the Company. The Credit Agreement also contains various other restrictions and covenants, some of which have become more stringent over time, including restrictions on our, and certain of our subsidiaries, ability to consolidate or merge, create liens, incur additional indebtedness, dispose of assets, consummate acquisitions, make investments and pay dividends and other distributions. The Company has the unilateral ability to terminate the revolving line of credit such that the financial covenants described above are no longer applicable. The Credit Agreement also contains customary events of default. If an event of default under the Credit Agreement occurs and is continuing, then the lenders may declare any outstanding obligations under the Credit Agreement to be immediately due and payable; provided, however, that the occurrence of an event of default as a result of a breach of a financial covenant under the Credit Agreement does not constitute a default or event of default with respect to any term facility under the Credit Agreement unless and until the required revolving lenders shall have terminated their revolving commitments and declared all amounts outstanding under the revolving credit facility to be due and payable. In addition, if the Company, any subsidiary guarantor or, with certain exceptions, any other subsidiary becomes the subject of voluntary or involuntary proceedings under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law, then any outstanding obligations under the Credit Agreement will automatically become immediately due and payable. Loans
outstanding under the Credit Agreement will bear interest at a rate of 2.00% per annum in excess of the otherwise applicable rate (i) while a payment or bankruptcy event of default exists or (ii) upon the lenders’ request, during the continuance of any other event of default. As of September 26, 2020, the Company was in compliance with the financial covenants.
The Company may prepay the loans and terminate the commitments under the Credit Facility Agreement at any time without penalty. Additionally, the Company is subject to mandatory debt repayments five business days after the filing of its financial statements for any annual period in which the Company generates excess cash as defined by the Credit Agreement. In accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Company did not generate excess cash during Fiscal Year 2020 and therefore is not required to make any debt repayments in Fiscal Year 2021. During the three months ended September 26, 2020, the Company repurchased $30.0 million aggregate principal amount of the term loan facility. The Company recorded an immaterial gain on the repurchase, which is included in interest expense on the Company's condensed consolidated statements of operations. As of September 26, 2020, the Company has five outstanding letters of credit on the revolving credit facility for a total of $1.4 million. The fair value of the term loan facility was determined based on inputs that were observable in the market (Level 2).

10. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
Stock-based Compensation
The Company recognizes the grant-date fair value of stock-based compensation as compensation expense using the straight-line attribution approach over the service period for which the stock-based compensation is expected to vest. The following table summarizes the amount of stock-based compensation included in the condensed consolidated statements of operations:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Three Months Ended | | Six Months Ended |

11. COMMON STOCK REPURCHASES
From time to time, the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") has authorized programs under which the Company may repurchase shares of its common stock, depending on market conditions, in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions. Repurchased shares are held as treasury stock until they are retired or re-issued. On November 28, 2018, the Board approved a 1 million share repurchase program expanding its capacity to repurchase shares to approximately 1.7 million shares. As of September 26, 2020, there remained 1,369,014 shares authorized for repurchase under the repurchase program approved by the Board.
For the periods ended September 26, 2020 and September 28, 2019, the Company did not repurchase any shares of its common stock.
The total value of shares withheld in satisfaction of employee tax obligations on the vesting of equity awards for the three months ended September 26, 2020 and September 28, 2019 were $0.3 million and $0.7 million, respectively. The amounts withheld were equivalent to the employees' minimum statutory tax withholding requirements and are reflected as a financing activity within the Company's condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. These share withholdings have the same effect as share repurchases by the Company as they reduce the number of shares that would have otherwise been issued in connection with the vesting of shares subject to the restricted stock grants.
12. ACCUMULATED OTHER COMPREHENSIVE LOSS
The components of accumulated other comprehensive income ("AOCI"), net of immaterial tax effects, are as follows:

(1) Refer to Note 13, Derivatives, which discloses the nature of the Company's derivative assets and liabilities as of September 26, 2020 and March 28, 2020.
13. DERIVATIVES
Foreign Currency Derivatives
The Company's foreign currency derivatives consist primarily of foreign currency forward exchange contracts and option contracts. The Company does not purchase derivative financial instruments for speculative trading purposes. The derivatives expose the Company to credit risk to the extent the counterparties may be unable to meet the terms of the derivative instrument. The Company's maximum exposure to loss that it would incur due to credit risk if parties to derivative contracts failed completely to perform according to the terms of the contracts was equal to the carrying value of the Company's derivative assets as of September 26, 2020 and March 28, 2020. The Company seeks to mitigate such risk by limiting its counterparties to large financial institutions. In addition, the Company monitors the potential risk of loss with any one counterparty resulting from this type of credit risk on an ongoing basis.
The Company enters into master netting arrangements with counterparties when possible to mitigate credit risk in derivative transactions. A master netting arrangement may allow each counterparty to net settle amounts owed between the Company and the counterparty as a result of multiple, separate derivative transactions. As of September 26, 2020, the Company had International Swaps and Derivatives Association ("ISDA") agreements with four applicable banks and financial institutions which contained netting provisions. The Company has elected to present the fair value of derivative assets and liabilities within the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheet on a gross basis even when derivative transactions are subject to master netting arrangements and may otherwise qualify for net presentation. For each counterparty, if netted, the Company would offset the asset and liability balances of all derivatives at the end of the reporting period. Derivatives not subject to master netting agreements are not eligible for net presentation. As of September 26, 2020, and March 28, 2020, no cash collateral had been received or pledged related to these derivative instruments.
The gross fair value of the Company's outstanding derivative contracts at the end of each period was as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
(in thousands) | | September 26, 2020 | | March 28, 2020 |
Derivative Assets(1) | | | | |

Accrued interest | | 965 | | | 631 | |
Total derivative liabilities | | $ | 18,961 | | | $ | 23,521 | |
(1) Short-term derivative assets are recorded in "other current assets" and long-term derivative assets are recorded in "deferred tax and other assets". As of September 26, 2020, the portion of derivative assets classified as long-term was immaterial.
(2) Short-term derivative liabilities are recorded in "accrued liabilities" and long-term derivative liabilities are recorded in "other long-term liabilities". As of September 26, 2020, the portion of derivative liabilities classified as long-term was $5.5 million.
Non-Designated Hedges
As of September 26, 2020, the Company had foreign currency forward contracts denominated in Euros ("EUR") and British Pound Sterling ("GBP"). The Company does not elect to obtain hedge accounting for these forward contracts. These forward contracts hedge against a portion of the Company’s foreign currency-denominated cash balances, receivables, and payables. The following table summarizes the notional value of the Company’s outstanding foreign exchange currency contracts and approximate U.S. Dollar ("USD") equivalent at September 26, 2020:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
(in thousands) | Local Currency | | USD Equivalent | | Position | | Maturity |
EUR | € | 50,800 | | | $ | 59,059 | | | Sell EUR | | 1 month |
GBP | £ | 3,600 | | | $ | 4,574 | | | Sell GBP | | 1 month |
| | | | | | | |
| | | | | | | |
Effect of Non-Designated Derivative Contracts on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations
The effect of non-designated derivative contracts recognized in other non-operating income and (expense), net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations was as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Three Months Ended | | Six Months Ended | | | | |
(in thousands) | | September 26, 2020 | | September 28, 2019 | | September 26, 2020 | | September 28, 2019 | | | | | | | | |
Gain (loss) on foreign exchange contracts | | $ | (1,815) | | | $ | 3,610 | | | $ | (2,733) | | | $ | 3,321 | | | | | | | | | |
Cash Flow Hedges
Costless Collars
The Company hedges a portion of the forecasted EUR and GBP denominated revenues with costless collars. On a monthly basis, the Company enters into option contracts with a six to eleven-month term. Collar contracts are scheduled to mature at the beginning of each fiscal quarter, at which time the instruments convert to forward contracts. The Company also enters into cash flow forwards with a three-month term. Once the hedged revenues are recognized, the forward contracts become non-designated hedges to protect the resulting foreign monetary asset position for the Company.
The notional value of the Company's outstanding EUR and GBP option and forward contracts at the end of each period was as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
(in millions) | | September 26, 2020 | | March 28, 2020 |
| | EUR | | GBP | | EUR | | GBP |
Option contracts | | €60.7 | | £12.3 | | €67.0 | | £18.4 |
Forward contracts | | €51.8 | | £11.0 | | €50.2 | | £18.5 |
The Company will reclassify all amounts accumulated in other comprehensive income into earnings within the next twelve months.
Interest Rate Swap
On July 30, 2018, the Company entered into a 4-year amortizing interest rate swap agreement with Bank of America, N.A. The swap has an initial notional amount of $831 million and matures on July 31, 2022. The swap involves the receipt of floating-rate interest payments for fixed interest rate payments at a rate of 2.78% over the life of the agreement. The Company has designated this interest rate swap as a cash flow hedge. The purpose of this swap is to hedge against changes in cash flows (interest payments) attributable to fluctuations in the Company's variable rate debt. The derivative is valued based on prevailing LIBOR rate curves on the date of measurement. The Company also evaluates counterparty credit risk when it calculates the fair value of the swap. The effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recorded to other comprehensive income (loss) on the accompanying balance sheets and reclassified into interest expense over the life of the underlying debt as interest on the Company's floating rate debt is accrued. The Company reviews the effectiveness of this instrument on a quarterly basis, recognize current period hedge ineffectiveness immediately in earnings and will discontinue hedge accounting if the Company no longer considers hedging to be highly effective. This hedge was fully effective at inception on July 30, 2018 and as of the six months ended September 26, 2020. During the six months ended September 26, 2020, the Company reclassified into interest expense $7.3 million and had a $15.9 million unrealized loss on its interest rate swap derivative designated as a cash flow hedge.
Effect of Designated Derivative Contracts on AOCI and Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations
The following table presents the pre-tax effects of derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges on accumulated other comprehensive income and the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended September 26, 2020 and September 28, 2019:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Three Months Ended | | Six Months Ended |
(in thousands) | | September 26, 2020 | | September 28, 2019 | | September 26, 2020 | | September 28, 2019 |

Amount of (gain) loss reclassified from OCI into net revenues (effective portion) | | 1,652 | | | (1,568) | | | 743 | | | (2,927) | |
Amount of (gain) loss reclassified from OCI into cost of revenues (effective portion) | | — | | | (62) | | | — | | | (166) | |
Amount of (gain) loss reclassified from OCI into interest expense (effective portion) | | 3,528 | | | 945 | | | 7,251 | | | 1,597 | |
Total amount of (gain) loss reclassified from AOCI to income (loss) (effective portion) | | 5,180 | | | (685) | | | 7,994 | | | (1,496) | |
| | | | | | | | |
| | | | | | | | |
| | | | | | | | |
Gain (loss) included in AOCI as of end of period | | $ | (16,747) | | | $ | (13,311) | | | $ | (16,747) | | | $ | (13,311) | |
As a result of adopting ASU 2017-12, beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2020, the excluded portion of such amounts is included in the same line item in which the underlying transactions affect earnings and the ineffective portion of the realized and unrealized gains or losses on derivatives is included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income. During the three and six months ended September 26, 2020 and September 28, 2019, the Company did not have an ineffective portion of its cash flow hedges.
14. INCOME TAXES
The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to taxation in the U.S. and in various foreign and state jurisdictions. The Company's tax benefit is determined using an estimate of its annual effective tax rate and adjusted for discrete items that are taken into account in the relevant period. The effective tax rates for the three months ended September 26, 2020 and September 28, 2019 were (29.0)% and 13.7%, respectively. The effective tax rates for the six months ended September 26, 2020 and September 28, 2019 were 0.2% and 14.2%. respectively.
As of September 26, 2020, the Company had approximately $86.3 million in non-US net deferred tax assets ("DTAs") after valuation allowance, and continued to maintain a 100% valuation allowance against its U.S. federal and state deferred tax assets. A significant portion of the Company's DTAs relate to internal intangible property restructuring between wholly-owned subsidiaries. At this time, based on evidence currently available, the Company considers it more likely than not that it will have sufficient taxable income in the future that will allow the Company to realize the DTAs; however, failure to generate sufficient taxable income could result in some or all DTAs not being utilized in the future. If the Company is unable to generate sufficient future taxable income, a substantial valuation allowance to reduce the Company's DTAs may be required.
The Company is subject to the examination of its income tax returns by the Internal Revenue Service and other tax authorities. Significant judgment is required in evaluating our uncertain tax positions and determining the Company's provision for income taxes. As of September 26, 2020, the Company had a total gross unrecognized tax benefits of $28.8 million compared with $37.2 million as of September 28, 2019. The reduction in gross unrecognized tax benefits is primarily attributed to examination closure and settlement by the IRS relating to our 2017 Fiscal Year income tax return related to reversal of the United States Tax Court’s holding in Altera Corp. v. Commissioner that upheld the portion of the Treasury regulations issued under IRC Section 482 requiring related-party participants in a cost sharing arrangement to share stock-based compensation costs. If recognized, the gross unrecognized tax benefits would reduce the effective tax rate in the period of recognition.
15. COMPUTATION OF EARNINGS (LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE
Basic earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) associated with common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share assumes the issuance of additional shares of common stock by the Company upon exercise of all outstanding stock options and vesting of restricted stock, if the effect is dilutive, in accordance with the treasury stock method or two-class method (whichever is more dilutive).
The following table sets forth the computation of basic loss per common share for the three and six months ended September 26, 2020, and September 28, 2019:

ScanSource and Ingram Micro Group accounted for 19.6% and 16.8%, respectively, of net revenue for the six months ended September 28, 2019.
Two customers, ScanSource and Ingram Micro Group accounted for 24.9% and 23.3%, respectively, of total net accounts receivable at September 26, 2020.

Revenue is recognized when obligations under the terms of a contract with the Company's customer are satisfied; generally, this occurs with the transfer of control of its products or services. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring goods or providing services. The majority of the Company's business relates to physical product shipments, for which revenue is generally recognized once title and risk of loss of the product are transferred to the customer. The Company believes that transfer of title and risk of loss best represent the moment at which the customer’s ability to direct the use of and obtain substantially all the benefits of an asset have been achieved. The Company has elected to account for shipping and handling as fulfillment cost and recognize the related costs when control over products have transferred to the customer as an expense in Cost of Revenues.
The Company's service revenue is recognized either over-time or at a point-in-time depending on the nature of the offering. Revenues associated with non-cancelable maintenance and support contracts comprise approximately 90% of the Company's overall service revenue and are recognized ratably over the contract term, which typically ranges between one and three years. The Company believes this recognition period faithfully depicts the pattern of transfer of control for maintenance and support as the services are a series of distinct services available and delivered daily over the term. For certain products, support is provided free of charge without the purchase of a separate maintenance contract. If the support is determined to rise to the level of a performance obligation, the Company allocates a portion of the transaction price to the implied support obligation and recognizes service revenue over the estimated implied support period which can range between one month to several years, depending on the circumstances. Revenues associated with Professional Services are recognized when the Company has objectively determined that the obligation has been satisfied, which is usually upon customer acceptance.
The Company's contracts with customers often include promises to transfer multiple products and services to a customer. Determining whether products and services are considered distinct performance obligations that should be accounted for separately versus together may require significant judgment. The Company allocates the transaction price of a contract, to each identified performance obligation based on stand-alone selling price (“SSP”). The Company determines if variable consideration is associated with one or many, but not all of the performance obligations and allocates accordingly. Judgment is also required to determine the SSP for each distinct performance obligation. The Company derives SSP for its performance obligations through a stratification methodology and considers a few characteristics including consideration related to different service types, customer and geography characteristics. In instances where SSP is not directly observable, such as when the Company does not sell the product or service separately, the Company determines the SSP using information that may include market conditions and other observable inputs.
On occasion, the Company will fulfill only part of a purchase order due to lack of current availability for one or more items requested on an order. Its practice is to ship what is on hand, with the remaining goods shipped once the product is in stock. Shipment generally occurs less than one year from the date of the order. Depending on the terms of the contract or operationally, undelivered or backordered items may be canceled by either party at their discretion.
As of September 26, 2020, the Company's deferred revenue balance was $212.8 million. As of March 28, 2020, the Company's deferred revenue balance was $208.5 million. During the three months ended September 26, 2020, the Company recognized $50.9 million in revenues that were reflected in deferred revenue at the beginning of the period.
The table below represents aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to the performance obligations that are unsatisfied (or partially unsatisfied) as of September 26, 2020:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | September 26, 2020 |
(in millions) | | Current | | Noncurrent | | Total |
Performance obligations | | $ | 146.6 | | | $ | 68.4 | | | $ | 215.0 | |
Upon establishment of creditworthiness, the Company may extend credit terms to its customers which typically ranges between 30 and 90 days from the date of invoice depending on geographic region and type of customer. The Company typically bills upon product hardware shipment, at time of software activation or upon completion of services. Revenue is not generally recognized in advance of billings. The balance of contract assets as of September 26, 2020 was $4.3 million. As of March 28, 2020, the Company's contract assets balance was $3.7 million. None of the Company's contracts are deemed to have significant financing components.
Sales, value add, and other taxes collected concurrent with revenue producing activities are excluded from revenue.
Commercial distributors and retailers represent the Company's largest sources of net revenues. Sales through its distribution and retail channels are made primarily under agreements allowing for rights of return and include various sales incentive programs, such as back end rebates, discounts, marketing development funds, price protection, and other sales incentives. The Company has an established sales history for these arrangements and the Company records the estimated reserves at the inception of the contract as a reflection of the reduced transaction price. Customer sales returns are estimated based on historical data, relevant current data, and the monitoring of inventory build-up in the distribution channel. Revenue reserves represent a reasonable estimation made by management and are subject to significant judgment. Estimated reserves may differ from actual returns or incentives provided, due to unforeseen customer return or claim patterns or changes in circumstances. For certain customer contracts which have historically demonstrated variability, the Company has considered the likelihood of being under-reserved and has considered a constraint accordingly. Provisions for Sales Returns are presented within accrued liabilities in the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheets. Provisions for promotions, rebates, and other sales incentives are presented as a reduction of accounts receivable unless there is no identifiable right offset, in which case they are presented within accrued liabilities on its condensed consolidated balance sheets. See Note 5, Details of Certain Balance Sheet Accounts above for additional details.
For certain arrangements, the Company pays commissions, bonuses and taxes associated with obtaining the contracts. The Company capitalizes such costs if they are deemed to be incremental and recoverable. The Company has elected to use the practical expedient to record the incremental costs of obtaining a contract as an expense when incurred if the amortization period of the asset that the entity otherwise would have recognized is one year or less. Determining the amortization period of costs related to obtaining a contract involves judgment. Capitalized commissions and related expenses, on hardware sales and services recognized at a point in time generally have an amortization period of less than one year. Maintenance-related performance obligations generally have an amortization period greater than one year when considering renewals. Capitalized commissions are amortized to Sales and Marketing Expense on a straight-line basis. The capitalized amount of incremental and recoverable costs of obtaining contracts with an amortization period of greater than one year are $4.7 million as of September 26, 2020. Amortization of capitalized contract costs for the three and six months ended September 26, 2020 was immaterial.
17. SEGMENT REPORTING AND GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION
The Company's Chief Executive Officer is identified as its Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM"). The CODM has organized the Company, manages resource allocations and measures performance among its two operating segments — Products and Services.
The Products segment includes the Company's Headsets, Voice and Video product lines. The Services segment includes maintenance support on hardware devices as well as professional, managed and cloud services and solutions. In managing the two operating segments the CODM uses information about their revenue and gross margin after adjustments to exclude certain non-cash transactions and activities that are not reflective of the Company's ongoing or core operations as further described below. The CODM does not review asset information by segment.
Purchase accounting amortization: Represents the amortization of purchased intangible assets recorded in connection with the Acquisition of Polycom.
Deferred revenue purchase accounting: Represents the impact of fair value purchase accounting adjustments related to deferred revenue recorded in connection with the Acquisition of Polycom. The Company's deferred revenue primarily relates to Service revenue associated with non-cancelable maintenance support on hardware devices which are typically billed in advance and recognized ratably over the contract term as those services are delivered. This adjustment represents the amount of additional revenue that would have been recognized during the period absent the write-down to fair value required under purchase accounting guidelines.
Acquisition and integration fees: Represents charges incurred in connection with the Acquisition and integration of Polycom such as system implementations, legal and accounting fees.
Stock compensation expense: Represents the non-cash expense associated with the Company's issuance of common stock and share-based awards to employees and non-employee directors.
The following table presents segments results for revenue and gross margin, as reviewed by the CODM, and their reconciliation to the Company's condensed consolidated GAAP results:

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
The discussion of our exposure to market risk related to changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates contains forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties. Actual results could vary materially as a result of a number of factors including those discussed in Part I, "Item 1A. Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 28, 2020, filed with the SEC on June 8, 2020, which could materially affect our business, financial position, or future results of operations.
Except as described below, there have been no material changes in our market risk as described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 28, 2020.
INTEREST RATE RISK
Our exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to our floating-rate interest payments under our $1.275 billion term loan facility. In connection with the Acquisition, we entered into a Credit Agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent, and the lenders party thereto (the “Credit Agreement”). Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest at a variable rate equal to (i) LIBOR plus a specified margin, or (ii) the base rate (which is the highest of (a) the prime rate publicly announced from time to time by Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, (b) the federal funds rate plus 0.50% or (c) the sum of 1% plus one-month LIBOR plus a specified margin.
On July 30, 2018, we entered into a 4-year amortizing interest rate swap agreement with Bank of America, N.A. as part of our overall strategy to manage our exposure to market risks associated with fluctuations in interest rates on the $1.275 billion term loan facility. As a matter of policy, we only enter into transactions that we believe will be highly effective at offsetting the underlying risk, and we do not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes. Our objective is to mitigate the impact of interest expense fluctuations on our profitability related to interest rate changes by minimizing movements in future debt payments with this interest rate swap.
The swap has an initial notional amount of $831 million and matures on July 31, 2022. The swap involves the receipt of floating-rate interest payments for fixed interest rate payments over the life of the agreement. We have designated this interest rate swap as a cash flow hedge, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recorded to other comprehensive income (loss) on the accompanying balance sheets and reclassified into interest expense over the life of the agreement. We will review the effectiveness of this instrument on a quarterly basis, recognize current period hedge ineffectiveness immediately in earnings and will discontinue hedge accounting if we no longer consider hedging to be highly effective. For additional details, refer to Note 13, Derivatives, of the accompanying notes to condensed consolidated financial statements. During the six months ended September 26, 2020, we made payments of approximately $6.9 million on our interest rate swap and recognized $7.3 million within interest expense on the condensed consolidated statement of operations. As of September 26, 2020, we had $1.0 million of interest accrued within accrued liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. We had an unrealized pre-tax loss of approximately $15.9 million recorded within accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) as of September 26, 2020. A hypothetical 10% increase or decrease on market interest rates related to our outstanding term loan facility could result in a corresponding increase or decrease in annual interest expense of approximately $0.1 million.
Interest rates were lower in the three and six months ended September 26, 2020 compared to the same period in the prior year. In the three and six months ended September 26, 2020 and September 28, 2019 we generated interest income of $0.2 million and $0.2 million and $0.2 million and $0.5 million, respectively.
FOREIGN CURRENCY EXCHANGE RATE RISK
We are a net receiver of currencies other than the USD. Accordingly, changes in exchange rates, and in particular a strengthening of the USD, could negatively affect our net revenues and gross margins as expressed in USD. There is a risk that we will have to adjust local currency product pricing due to competitive pressures if there is significant volatility in foreign currency exchange rates.
The primary currency fluctuations to which we are exposed are the Euro ("EUR"), British Pound Sterling ("GBP"), and the Chinese Renminbi ("RMB"). We use a hedging strategy to diminish, and make more predictable, the effect of currency fluctuations. All of our hedging activities are entered into with large financial institutions, which we periodically evaluate for credit risks. We hedge our balance sheet exposure by hedging EUR and GBP denominated cash, accounts receivable, and accounts payable balances, and our economic exposure by hedging a portion of anticipated EUR and GBP denominated sales. We can provide no assurance that our strategy will be successful in the future or that exchange rate fluctuations will not materially adversely affect our business. We do not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for speculative trading purposes.
The impact of changes in foreign currency rates recognized in other income and (expense), net was immaterial in both the three and six months ended September 26, 2020 and September 28, 2019. Although we hedge a portion of our foreign currency exchange exposure, the weakening of certain foreign currencies, particularly the EUR and GBP in comparison to the USD, could result in material foreign exchange losses in future periods.
Non-designated Hedges
We hedge our EUR and GBP denominated cash, accounts receivable, and accounts payable balances by entering into foreign exchange forward contracts. The table below presents the impact on the foreign exchange gain (loss) of a hypothetical 10% appreciation and a 10% depreciation of the USD against the forward currency contracts as of September 26, 2020 (in millions):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Currency - forward contracts | Position | | USD Value of Net Foreign Exchange Contracts | | Foreign Exchange Gain From 10% Appreciation of USD | | Foreign Exchange Loss From 10% Depreciation of USD |
EUR | Sell EUR | | $ | 59.1 | | | $ | 5.9 | | | $ | (5.9) | |
GBP | Sell GBP | | $ | 4.6 | | | $ | 0.5 | | | $ | (0.5) | |
| | | | | | | |
| | | | | | | |
Cash Flow Hedges
In the six months ended September 26, 2020, approximately 50% of our net revenues were derived from sales outside of the U.S. and denominated primarily in EUR and GBP.
As of September 26, 2020, we had foreign currency put and call option contracts with notional amounts of approximately €60.7 million and £12.3 million denominated in EUR and GBP, respectively. Collectively, our option contracts hedge against a portion of our forecasted foreign currency denominated sales. If the USD is subjected to either a 10% appreciation or 10% depreciation versus these net exposed currency positions, we could realize a gain of $4.1 million or incur a loss of $7.0 million, respectively.
The table below presents the impact on the Black-Scholes valuation of our currency option contracts of a hypothetical 10% appreciation and a 10% depreciation of the USD against the indicated open option contract type for cash flow hedges as of September 26, 2020 (in millions):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

(b)Changes in internal control over financial reporting
There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, its internal control over financial reporting.
PART II -- OTHER INFORMATION
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
We are presently engaged in various legal actions arising in the normal course of business. We believe that it is unlikely that any of these actions will have a material adverse impact on our operating results; however, because of the inherent uncertainties of litigation, the outcome of any of these actions could be unfavorable and could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. For additional information about our material legal proceedings, please see Note 7, Commitments and Contingencies, of the accompanying notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements.
RISK FACTORS
You should carefully consider the risk factors discussed in Part I, "Item 1A. Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 28, 2020, filed with the SEC on June 8, 2020 (the "Form 10-K"), each of which could materially affect our business, financial position, or future results of operations. Except as described below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors included in the Form 10-K.
The risks described here and in the Form 10-K are not the only risks we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial position, or future results of operations.
