Significant Accounting Policies [Text Block]

NOTE

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The consolidated financial statements are prepared according to United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”).

Use of estimates:

Financial statements in U.S. dollars:

Monetary accounts maintained in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are remeasured into dollars in accordance with ASC

No.

830

30,

“Translation of Financial Statements.” All transaction gains and losses resulting from the remeasurement of monetary balance sheet items are reflected in the consolidated statements of operations as financial income or expenses as appropriate.

Accumulated other comprehensive loss related to foreign currency translation adjustments, net amounted to

$327

and

$256

as of

December 31, 2018

and

2017,

respectively.

Principles of consolidation:

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Cash equivalents:

Cash equivalents are short-term highly liquid investments, which are readily convertible to cash with original maturity of

three

months or less from the date of acquisition.

Restricted deposits:

Restricted deposits include deposits which are used as security for lease agreements.

Short-term deposits:

Bank deposits with original maturities of more than

three

months and less than

one

year are presented at cost, including accrued interest.

Marketable securities:

The Company accounts for investments in debt securities in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”)

No.

320

“Investments in Debt and Equity Securities.” Management determines the appropriate classification of the Company’s investments in debt securities at the time of purchase and reevaluates such determinations at each balance sheet date.

The Company classified all of its investments in marketable securities as available for sale.

not

that the Company will be required to sell the investment before recovery of cost basis. For debt securities, only the decline attributable to deteriorating credit of an-other-than-temporary impairment is recorded in the consolidated statement of operations, unless the Company intends, or more likely than

not

it will be forced, to sell the security. During the years ended

December 31, 2018,

2017

and

2016,

the Company did

not

record an-other-than-temporary impairment loss (see Note

Fair value of financial instruments:

for more information.

The Company accounts for certain assets and liabilities at fair value under ASC

820,

“Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.” Fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or a liability.

The hierarchy below lists

three

levels of fair value based on the extent to which inputs used in measuring fair value are observable in the market. The Company categorizes each of its fair value measurements in

one

of these

three

levels based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

Level

Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level

Include other inputs that are directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace.

Level

Unobservable inputs which are supported by little or

market activity.

The fair value hierarchy also requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.

Inventories:

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Inventory reserves are provided to cover risks arising from slow-moving items or technological obsolescence.

Cost is determined as follows:

Work in progress and finished products- on the basis of raw materials and manufacturing costs on an average basis.

Property and equipment of the Company are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset

may

not

be recoverable. The recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of such assets to the future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the assets. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets.

During the years ended

December

31,

2018,

2017

and

2016,

impairment losses were identified for property and equipment.

The Company accounts for costs of computer software developed or obtained for internal use in accordance with FASB ASC

No.

350

40,

“The Internal Use Software.” FASB ASC

350

requires the capitalization of certain costs incurred in connection with developing or obtaining internal use software. During

2018,

2017

and

2016,

the Company did

not

capitalize internal use software.

Goodwill and other intangible assets:

not

amortized, but rather is subject to an annual impairment test.

ASC

350

prescribes a

two

-phase process for impairment testing of goodwill. The

first

phase screens for impairment, while the

second

phase (if necessary) measures impairment. Goodwill impairment is deemed to exist if the net book value of a reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value. In such a case, the

second

phase is then performed, and the Company measures impairment by comparing the carrying amount of the reporting unit’s goodwill to the implied fair value of that goodwill. An impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to the excess. ASC

350

allows an entity to

first

assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform the

two

-step quantitative goodwill impairment test. An entity is

not

required to calculate the fair value of a reporting unit unless the entity determines, based on a qualitative assessment, that it is more likely than

not

that its fair value is less than its carrying amount.

Alternatively, ASC

350

permits an entity to bypass the qualitative assessment for any reporting unit and proceed directly to performing the

first

step of the goodwill impairment test.

The Company performs an annual impairment test on

December 31

of each fiscal year, or more frequently if impairment indicators are present.

The Company’s reporting units are consistent with the reportable segments identified in Note

16.

For the fiscal year ended

December 31, 2018,

2017

and

2016,

the Company performed a quantitative assessment on its goodwill and

impairment losses were identified.

Intangible assets that are

not

considered to have an indefinite useful life are amortized using the straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, which range from

years. The carrying amount of these assets is reviewed whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset

may

not

be recoverable. Recoverability of these assets is measured by comparison of the carrying amount of the asset to the future undiscounted cash flows the asset is expected to generate.

If such asset is considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured as the difference between the carrying amount of the assets and the fair value of the impaired asset.

During the fiscal year ended

December 31, 2018,

2017

and

2016,

impairment losses were identified.

Severance pay:

The deposited funds include profits accumulated up to the balance sheet date. The deposited funds

may

be withdrawn only upon the fulfillment of the obligation pursuant to Israel’s Severance Pay Law or labor agreements.

Severance expenses for the years ended

December 31, 2018,

2017

and

2016,

were

$1,679,

$1,666

and

$1,582,

respectively.

Revenue recognition:

The Company generates its revenues from sales of products. The Company sells its products through a direct sales force and through a network of distributors.

The Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification

606,

Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASC

606

), effective on

January 1, 2018,

using the modified retrospective method. As a result of this adoption, the Company revised its accounting policy for revenue recognition as detailed below.

five

-step approach: (

) identify the contract with a customer, (

) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (

) determine the transaction price, (

) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (

) recognize revenue when a performance obligation is satisfied.

Identify the contract with a customer

A contract is an agreement between

two

or more parties that creates enforceable rights and obligations. In evaluating the contract, the Company analyzes the customer’s intent and ability to pay the amount of promised consideration (credit risk) and considers the probability of collecting substantially all of the consideration. The Company determines whether collectability is reasonably assured on a customer-by-customer basis pursuant to its credit review policy. The Company typically sells to customers with whom it has a long-term business relationship and a history of successful collection. A significant number of the Company’s customers are also large original equipment manufacturers with substantial financial resources. For a new customer, or when an existing customer substantially expands its commitments, the Company evaluates the customer’s financial position, the number of years the customer has been in business, the history of collection with the customer and the customer’s ability to pay and typically assigns a credit limit based on that review. The Company increases the credit limit only after it has established a successful collection history with the customer. If the Company determines at any time that collectability is

not

reasonably assured under a particular arrangement based upon its credit review process, the customer’s payment history or information that comes to light about a customer’s financial position, it recognizes revenue under that arrangement as customer payments are actually received.

Identify the performance obligations in the contract

At a contract’s inception, the Company assesses the goods or services promised in a contract with a customer and identifies the performance obligations.

The Company’s contracts with customers for the sale of products generally include

one

performance obligation.

Determine the transaction price

The transaction price is the amount of consideration to which the Company is entitled in exchange for transferring goods to a customer. Generally, the Company does

not

provide any variable consideration, including price protection, stock rotation, and/or right of return.

Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract

The Company allocates the transaction price to

one

performance obligation.

Recognize revenue when a performance obligation is satisfied

Under ASC

606,

certain product sales through the Company’s distributors where revenue was previously deferred until the distributors resold the Company’s products to the end customers are now recognized when products are delivered to the distributor and control of the promised goods are transferred, in an amount that reflects the consideration that the company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services.

In accordance with the ASC

606

requirements, the disclosure of the impact of adoption of ASC

606

on the Company’s consolidated income statement and balance sheet was as follows (in thousands):

be incurred under its warranty and records a liability in the amount of such costs. The Company periodically assesses the adequacy of its recorded warranty liabilities and adjusts the amounts as necessary. Warranty costs and liability were immaterial for the years ended

2017

and

2016.

Research and development costs, net:

Research and development costs, net of grants received, are charged to the consolidated statement of operations as incurred.

Government grants:

The Company recorded grants in the amount of

$1,678,

$1,528

and

$2,687

for the year ended

December 31, 2018

and

2017

and

2016,

respectively. The vast majority of those grants were bearing royalties.

The Company’s Israeli subsidiary is obligated to pay royalties amounting to

of the sales of certain products the development of which received grants from the IIA in previous years. The obligation to pay these royalties is contingent on actual sales of such products. Grants received from the IIA

may

become repayable if certain criteria under the grants are

not

met. The Israeli Research and Development Law provides that know-how developed under an approved research and development program

may

not

be transferred to

third

parties without the approval of the IIA. Such approval is

not

required for the sale or export of any products resulting from such research or development. The IIA, under special circumstances,

may

approve the transfer of IIA-funded know-how outside Israel, in the following cases: (a) the grant recipient pays to the IIA a portion of the sale price paid in consideration for such IIA-funded know-how or in consideration for the sale of the grant recipient itself, as the case

may

be, which portion will

not

exceed

six

times the amount of the grants received plus interest (or

three

times the amount of the grant received plus interest, in the event that the recipient of the know-how has committed to retain the research and development activities of the grant recipient in Israel after the transfer); (b) the grant recipient receives know-how from a

third

party in exchange for its IIA-funded know-how; (c) such transfer of IIA-funded know-how arises in connection with certain types of cooperation in research and development activities; or (d) if such transfer of know-how arises in connection with a liquidation by reason of insolvency or receivership of the grant recipient.

Equity-based compensation:

December 31, 2018,

the Company had

two

equity incentive plans from which the Company

may

grant future equity awards and

two

expired equity incentive plans from which

future equity awards

may

be granted but had outstanding equity awards granted prior to expiration. The Company also had

one

employee stock purchase plan. See full description in Note

foreseeable plans to pay dividends.

With respect to the Company’s employee stock purchase plan, the Company selected the Monte Carlo pricing model as the most appropriate fair value method.

A majority of the Company’s equity awards until

2012

were in the form of stock appreciation rights (SARs). Starting in

2013,

a majority of the Company’s equity awards were in the form of restricted stock unit (“RSU”) grants.

The fair value of each restricted stock unit (“RSU”) is based on the market value of the underlying share on the date of grant.

Basic and diluted income (loss) per share:

No.

The total weighted average number of shares related to the outstanding stock options, SARs and RSUs excluded from the calculation of diluted net income per share due to their anti-dilutive effect was

respectively.

Income taxes:

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with FASB ASC

No.

740,

“Income Taxes.” This topic prescribes the use of the liability method, whereby deferred tax asset and liability account balances are determined based on differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company provides a valuation allowance, if necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to their estimated realizable value.

Deferred tax liabilities and assets are classified as non-current based on the adopting of Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”)

2015

17,

“Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes.” Prior to the adoption of ASU

2015

17,

U.S. GAAP required an entity to separate deferred income tax liabilities and assets into current and noncurrent amounts in a classified statement of financial position. ASU

2015

was issued to simplify the presentation of deferred income taxes. Deferred tax liabilities and assets are now classified as noncurrent in a classified statement of financial position for all period presented.

The Company accounts for uncertain tax positions in accordance with ASC

740,

which contains a

two

-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions. The

first

step is to evaluate the tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return by determining whether the weight of available evidence indicates that it is more likely than

not

that, on an evaluation of the technical merits, the tax position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes. The

second

step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount that is more than

50%

likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company reevaluates its income tax positions periodically to consider factors such as changes in facts or circumstances, changes in or interpretations of tax law, effectively settled issues under audit, and new audit activity. Such a change in recognition or measurement would result in recognition of a tax benefit or an additional charge to the tax provision.

Concentrations of credit risk:

The majority of cash and cash equivalents and short-term deposits of the Company are invested in dollar deposits with major U.S., European and Israeli banks. Deposits in U.S. banks

may

be in excess of insured limits and are

not

insured in other jurisdictions. Generally, cash and cash equivalents and these deposits

may

be withdrawn upon demand and therefore bear low risk.

The Company’s marketable securities consist of investment-grade corporate bonds and U.S. government-sponsored enterprise (“GSE”) securities. As of

December

Recently issued and adopted accounting pronouncements:

May 2014,

the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”)

2014

“Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic

606

)” (“ASU

2014

), which amends the existing accounting standards for revenue recognition. On

January 1, 2018,

the Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”)

606,

“Revenue from Contracts with Customers” and all the related amendments (collectively “ASC

606”

) using the modified retrospective method. The Company recognized the cumulative effect of initially applying ASC

606

as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. The comparative information has

not

been restated and continues to be reported under the revenue recognition standards in effect for those periods. The reported results for

2018

reflect the application of ASC

606

guidance while the reported results for

2017

were prepared under the guidance of ASC

605,

“Revenue Recognition (ASC

606

on the Company’s balance sheet was a decrease in accumulated deficit as of

designates the appropriate cash flow classification, including requirements to allocate certain components of these cash receipts and payments among operating, investing and financing activities. The retrospective transition method, requiring adjustment to all comparative periods presented, is required unless it is impracticable for some of the amendments, in which case those amendments would be prospectively as of the earliest date practicable.

the Company reports the current service cost component of net periodic benefit cost in Compensation and benefits on the Company's Consolidated Statements of Income, and reports the other components of net periodic benefit recovery as a separate line item outside of Operating income on the Company's Consolidated Statements of Income. These changes in presentation do

not

result in any changes to net income or earnings per share. Details of the components of net periodic benefit costs are provided in Note

(Pensions and employees benefit obligations). The ASU also prospectively restricts capitalization of net periodic benefit costs to the current service cost component when applicable. This restriction has

impact on the Company's financial statements, since the Company does

the FASB issued amendments in ASU

2018

which provide another transition method in addition to the existing transition method, by allowing entities to initially apply the new leases standard at the adoption date and recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption, and to

not

apply the new guidance in the comparative periods they present in the financial statements.The new standard requires lessees to apply a dual approach, classifying leases as either finance or operating leases based on the principle of whether or

not

the lease is effectively a financed purchase by the lessee. This classification will determine whether lease expense is recognized based on an effective interest method or on a straight line basis over the term of the lease, respectively. A lessee is also required to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term of greater than

twelve

months regardless of their classification. Leases with a term of

twelve

months or less will be accounted for similar to existing guidance for operating leases. ASU

Fair Value Measurement and Measurement Inputs, Recurring and Nonrecurring [Text Block]

NOTE

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

In accordance with ASC

820,

the Company measures its cash equivalents, marketable securities and foreign currency derivative contracts at fair value. Cash equivalents, marketable securities and foreign currency derivative contracts are classified within Level

or Level

value hierarchies. This is because cash equivalents, and marketable securities are valued using quoted market prices or alternative pricing sources and models utilizing market observable inputs. Foreign currency derivative contracts are classified within Level

value hierarchy as the valuation inputs are based on quoted prices and market observable data of similar instruments.

ACCRUED PENSION LIABILITIES

As of

December 31, 2018

and

2017,

the defined benefits plans that are accounted for in the Company’s consolidated financial statements are the pension plans in Germany and India. Consistent with the requirements of local law, the Company deposits funds for certain plans with insurance companies,

third

-party trustees, or into government-managed accounts, and/or accrues for the unfunded portion of the obligation.

The Company’s pension obligation in Germany relating to the unvested pension claims (i.e. future obligation that will result from future service period) of the employees were outsourced in

November 2010

to an external insurance company (“Nuremberger Versicherung”). From and after the outsourcing date, the Company is required to pay premiums to the external insurance company and in return the pension benefits earned by the German employees are covered by the Company’s arrangement with the external insurance company. The Company legally is released from its obligations to the German employees once the premiums are paid, and it is

longer subject to any of the risks and rewards associated with the benefit obligations covered and the plan assets transferred to the external insurance company. Since the outsourcing arrangement meets the requirements of a nonparticipating annuity contract, the Company treats the costs of the outsourcing arrangement as the costs of the benefits being earned in accordance with ASC Paragraph

715

of ASC

715

“Compensation—Retirement Benefits.”

5,000,000

shares of preferred stock in

one

or more series with such designations, rights, preferences, and limitations as the Board of Directors

may

determine, including the consideration received, the number of shares comprising each series, dividend rates, redemption provisions, liquidation preferences, sinking fund provisions, conversion rights and voting rights.

shares of preferred stock are currently outstanding.

Common stock:

Currently,

50,000,000

shares of common stock are authorized. Holders of common stock are entitled to

one

vote per share on all matters to be voted upon by the Company’s stockholders. Subject to the rights of holders of preferred stock, if any, in the event of liquidation, dissolution or winding up, holders of common stock are entitled to share ratably in all of the Company’s assets. The Company’s Board of Directors

may

declare a dividend out of funds legally available therefore and, subject to the rights of holders of preferred stock, if any, the holders of common stock are entitled to receive ratably any such dividends.

Holders of common stock have

preemptive rights or other subscription rights to convert their shares into any other securities. There are

redemption or sinking fund provisions applicable to common stock.

Dividend policy:

December 31, 2018,

the Company had an accumulated deficit of

$112,363.

The Company has never paid cash dividends on the common stock and presently intends to follow a policy of retaining earnings for reinvestment in its business.

Share repurchase program:

The Company’s board of directors has previously approved a number of share repurchase plans, including those in accordance with Rule

10b5

of the Securities Exchange Act of

1934,

for the repurchase of our common stock. In

August 2018,

the Company’s board authorized a

$10

million dollar buyback program, inclusive of the shares authorized for repurchase from previously authorized share repurchase plans.

2018,

2017

and

2016,

the Company repurchased approximately

1,015,000,

389,000

and

1,051,000

shares, respectively, of common stock at an average purchase price of

$12.14,

$11.55

and

$10.15

per share, respectively, for an aggregate purchase price of

$12,318,

$4,490

and

$10,666,

respectively. As of

December

31,

2018,

440,622

shares of the Company’s common stock remained authorized for repurchase under the Company’s board-authorized share repurchase program.

2018,

2017

and

2016,

the Company issued

848,000,

890,000

and

1,409,000

shares, respectively, of common stock, out of treasury stock, to employees who exercised their equity awards and had vested RSUs under the Company’s equity incentive plans or purchased shares from the Company’s

1993

Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”).

Stock purchase plan and equity incentive plans:

The Company has various equity incentive plans under which employees, officers, non-employee directors of the Company and its subsidiaries and others, including consultants,

may

be granted rights to purchase the Company’s common stock. The plans authorize the administrator, except for the grant of RSUs, to grant equity incentive awards at an exercise price of

not

less than

100%

of the fair market value of the common stock on the date the award is granted. It is the Company’s policy to grant stock options and SARs at an exercise price that equals the fair market value

Equity awards granted under all stock incentive plans that are cancelled or forfeited before expiration become available for future grant.

Until the end of

2012,

the Company granted to employees and executive officers of the Company primarily share appreciation rights (“SARs”), capped with a ceiling, under the various equity incentive plans. The SAR unit confers the holder the right to stock appreciation over a preset price of the Company’s common stock during a specified period of time. When the unit is exercised, the appreciation amount is paid through the issuance of shares of the Company’s common stock. The ceiling limits the maximum income for each SAR unit and the maximum number of shares to be issued. SARs are considered an equity instrument as it is a net share settled award capped with a ceiling.

Starting in

2013,

the Company granted to employees and executive officers of the Company primarily restricted stock units (“RSUs”) under the various equity incentive plans. An RSU award is an agreement to issue shares of our common stock at the time the award is vested. RSUs granted to employees and executive officers generally vest over a

four

year period from the grant date with

25%

of the RSUs granted vesting on the

first

anniversary of the grant date and

6.25%

vesting each quarter thereafter.

A summary of the various plans is as follows:

1993

Director Stock Option Plan (Directors Plan)

Upon the closing of the Company’s initial public offering, the Company adopted the Directors Plan. Under the Directors Plan, which expired in

January 2014,

the Company was authorized to issue nonqualified stock options to the Company’s outside non-employee directors to purchase up to

1,980,875

shares of common stock at an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant. Options granted under the Directors Plan generally had a term of

years. One-

third

of the shares were exercisable after the

first

year and thereafter

one

third

at the end of each

twelve

-month period.

The Directors Plan expired in

January 2014

and therefore

further awards

may

be granted thereunder. As of

December

31,

2018,

2,464,933

shares of common stock had been granted under the plan and stock options to acquire

165,000

shares remained outstanding out of grants made prior to its expiration.

1998

Non-Officer Employee Stock Option Plan (

1998

Plan)

1998,

the Company adopted the

1998

Plan. Under the

1998

Plan, employees

may

be granted non-qualified stock options for the purchase of common stock. The

1998

Plan currently provides for the purchase of up to

5,062,881

shares of common stock. As of

December 31, 2018,

14,583

shares of common stock remained available for grant under the

1998

Plan.

The exercise price of options under the

1998

Plan shall

not

be less than the fair market value of common stock for nonqualified stock options, as determined by the Company’s Board of Directors or a committee appointed by the Company’s Board of Directors.

Options under the

1998

Plan are generally exercisable over a

-month period beginning

months after issuance, or as determined by the Company’s Board of Directors or a committee appointed by the Company’s Board of Directors. Options under the

1998

Plan expire up to

seven

years after the date of grant.

2012

Equity Incentive Plan (

2012

Plan)

2012,

the Company adopted the

2012

Plan, which also complies with the Israeli tax reforms. Under the

2012

Plan, employees, directors and consultants

may

be granted incentive or non-qualified stock options, SARs, RSUs and other awards under the plan. The exercise price for stock options under the

2012

Plan shall

not

be less than the fair market value of common stock at the time of grant, unless otherwise determined by the Company’s Board of Directors or a committee appointed by the Company’s Board of Directors. The

2012

Plan currently provides for the purchase of up to

3,750,000

shares of common stock. As of

December 31, 2018,

786,031

shares of common stock remained available for grant under the

2012

Plan.

Stock options, SARs and RSUs awarded under the

2012

Plan to employees and executive officers are generally exercisable over a

-month period beginning

months after issuance, or as determined by the Company’s Board of Directors or a committee appointed by the Company’s Board of Directors Equity awards under the

2012

Plan expire up to

seven

years after the date of grant.

A director subplan was established under the

2012

Plan to provide for the grant of equity awards to the Company’s non-employee directors. The director subplan is designed to work automatically; however, to the extent administration is necessary, it would be provided by the Company’s board of directors. Starting in

2014,

non-employee directors are granted automatically under the director subplan, on

January 1

of each year,

8,000

stock options and

4,000

restricted stock units, all of which would fully vest at the end of

one

year from the grant date. If a director is appointed for a term commencing during a calendar year, the director would be granted stock options and restricted stock units on the date of appointment and the number of stock options and restricted stock units granted would be based upon the number of days remaining in the in the calendar year following the date such person was nominated as a director.

1993

Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP)

Upon the closing of the Company’s initial public offering, the Company adopted the ESPP. The Company has reserved an aggregate of

4,800,000

shares of common stock for issuance under the ESPP. The ESPP provides that substantially all employees of the Company

may

purchase Company common stock at

85%

of its fair market value on specified dates via payroll deductions. There were approximately

230,000,

227,000

and

233,000

shares of common stock issued at a weighted average purchase price of

$8.71,

$8.34

and

$7.62

per share under the ESPP in

2018,

2017

and

2016,

respectively. As of

December 31, 2018,

479,000

shares of common stock were reserved under the ESPP.

Calculation of aggregate intrinsic value for options, RSUs and SARs outstanding and exercisable is based on the share price of the Company’s common stock as of

December 31, 2018,

2017

and

2016

which was

$11.20,

$12.50

and

$13.05

per share, respectively. The intrinsic value for options and SARs exercised and RSUs vested during those years represents the difference between the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of exercise and vesting for RSUs and the exercise price of each option, RSU or SAR, as applicable.

The stock options, SARs and RSUs outstanding as of

December 31, 2018,

have been separated into ranges of exercise price as follows:

Calculation of weighted average remaining contractual term does

not

include the RSUs that were granted, which have an indefinite contractual term.

As of

December

31,

2018,

the outstanding number of SARs was

185,000

and based on the share price of the Company’s common stock as of

December

31,

2018

(

$11.20

per share),

154,000

of those SARs were in the money as of

December

31,

2018.

The weighted average estimated fair value of employee RSUs granted during

2018,

2017

and

2016

was

$11.25,

$9.63

and

$8.33

per share, respectively, (using the weighted average pre vest cancellation rate of

3.75%,

3.64%

and

3.78%

during

2018,

2017

and

2016,

respectively, on an annual basis).

The weighted-average estimated fair value of employee stock options and SARs granted during the years ended

December 31, 2018,

2017

and

2016

was

$4.39,

$2.95

and

$3.97,

respectively, per stock option and SAR. The Company selected the binomial model as the most appropriate model for determining the fair value for its stock options awards and SARs. The fair value of options and SARs granted in

2018,

2017

and

2016

is estimated at the date of grant using the following weighted average assumptions. (annualized percentages):

The Company participated in programs (most of which are royalty bearing grants) sponsored by the Israeli government for the support of research and development activities. Through

December 31, 2018,

the Company had obtained grants from the Israeli Innovation Authority (the “IIA”) (previously the Office of the Chief Scientist) for certain of the Company’s research and development projects. The Company is obligated to pay royalties to the IIA, amounting to

of the sales of the products and other related revenues (based on the dollar) generated from such projects, up to

100%

of the grants received. The royalty payment obligations also bear interest at the LIBOR rate. The obligation to pay these royalties is contingent on actual sales of the applicable products and in the absence of such sales,

payment is required.

As of

December 31, 2018,

the aggregate contingent liability to the IIA amounted to

$10,865.

The Israeli Research and Development Law provides that know-how developed under an approved research and development program

may

Management believes that part of the deferred tax assets will

was recognized as of

December 31, 2018

respectively.

not

limited to, a corporate tax rate decrease from

35%

effective for tax years beginning after

December 31, 2017.

In accordance with ASC

740,

the Company recorded

$2,500

of deferred tax expense in connection with the remeasurement of certain deferred tax assets and liabilities. This was fully offset by a valuation allowance. Accordingly, there was

net impact on the Company’s income tax expense for the year ended

December 31, 2017.

The remaining provisions of the TCJA have

material impact on the Company's results of operations.

December 22, 2018

marked the end of the measurement period for purposes of SAB

and the Company concluded that

change was required based on its initial assessment.

As of

December 31, 2018,

the Company had cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities and time deposits of approximately

$123,900.

Out of total cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities and time deposits of

$123,900,

$113,100

was held by foreign subsidiaries of the Company. The Company intends to permanently reinvest earnings of its foreign operations and its current operating plans do

not

demonstrate a need to repatriate foreign earnings to fund the Company’s U.S. operations. However, if these funds were needed for the Company’s operations in the United States, the Company would be required to accrue and pay taxes in several countries to repatriate these funds. The determination of the amount of additional taxes related to the repatriation of these earnings is

not

practicable, as it

may

vary based on various factors such as the location of the cash and the effect of regulation in the various jurisdictions from which the cash would be repatriated.

Uncertain tax positions:

A reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances of the total amounts of gross unrecognized tax benefits is as follows:

	201 8			2017			2016

The statute of limitations relating to the Company’s consolidated Federal income tax return is closed for all tax years up to and including

2014.

The last examination conducted by the Israeli tax authorities was with respect to the Company’s Israeli income tax returns for the years between

2006

and

2012.

With respect to DSP Israel, the tax returns up to and including

2012

are considered to be final and

not

subject to any audits due to the expiration of the statute of limitations.

A change in the amount of unrecognized tax benefit is reasonably possible in the next

months due to the examination by the German tax authorities of the Company’s German tax returns for

2010–2013.

The Company currently cannot provide an estimate of the range of change in the amount of the unrecognized tax benefits due to the ongoing status of the examination.

Tax benefits under the Law for the Encouragement of Capital Investments,

1959

(“Investment Law”).

The Investment Law provides certain Israeli tax benefits for eligible capital investments in a production facility, as discussed in greater detail below.

April 1, 2005,

an amendment to the Investment Law came into effect (the “Amendment”) and significantly changed the provisions of the Investment Law. Generally, DSP Israel’s investment programs that obtained approval for Approved Enterprise status prior to enactment of the Amendment will continue to be subject to the old provisions of the Investment Law.

The Amendment enacted major changes in the manner in which tax benefits are awarded under the Investment Law so that companies are

longer required to get the Investment Center’s prior approval to qualify for tax benefits. An enterprise that receives tax benefits without the initial approval from the Investment Center is called a “Beneficiary Enterprise,” rather than the previous terminology of “Approved Enterprise” used under the Investment Law. The period of tax benefits for a new Beneficiary Enterprise commences in the “Year of Commencement,” which is the later of: (

) the year in which taxable income was

first

generated by the company, or (

) the year of election.

In addition, under the Amendment, tax benefits are available for production facilities, which generally are required to derive more than

25%

of their business income from export. Furthermore, in order to receive the tax benefits under the Amendment, a company is required to make an investment in the Benefited Enterprise exceeding a certain percentage or a minimum amount specified in the Investment Law.

two

four

years and is subject to a reduced corporate tax rate of

10%

25%

(based on the percentage of foreign ownership) for an additional period of

six

eight

years.

DSP Israel’s first, second, third, fourth,

fifth

and

sixth

investment programs, which were completed and commenced operations in

1994,

1996,

1998,

1999,

2002

and

2004,

respectively, were tax exempt for a period of between

two

and

four

years, from the

first

year they had taxable income and were entitled to a reduced corporate tax rate of

10%

25%

(based on the percentage of foreign ownership) for an additional period of between

six

eight

years. As of

2018,

all those investment programs were

longer entitled to a reduced corporate tax rate.

DSP Israel’s

seventh

and

eighth

investment programs have been in operation since

2006

and

2009,

respectively, and entitles DSP Israel to a corporate tax exemption for a period of

two

years and a reduced corporate tax rate of

10%

25%

(based on the percentage of foreign ownership) for an additional period of

eight

years from the

first

year it had taxable income. As of

2017,

the

seventh

investment program was

longer entitled to a reduced corporate tax rate. The period of tax benefits for the

eight

investment program commenced in fiscal year

2018

and will continue until the program expiration by the end of

2020.

Since DSP Israel is operating under more than

one

approval, its effective tax rate is the result of a weighted combination of the various applicable tax rates and tax exemptions and the computation is made for income derived from each investment program on the basis and formulas specified in the Investment Law and the approvals.

During

2006,

DSP Israel received an approval for the erosion of tax basis in respect to its

fifth

and

sixth

investment programs. During

2008,

DSP Israel received an approval for the erosion of tax basis with respect to its second,

third

and

fourth

investment programs. Those approvals resulted in increasing the taxable income attributable to the later investment programs, which are currently in operation and will be taxed at a lower tax rate than the previous investment programs, which in turn will decrease the overall effective tax rate.

The Company’s investment programs that generate taxable income are currently subject to an average tax rate of up to approximately

10%

based on a variety of factors, including percentage of foreign ownership and approvals for the erosion of the tax basis of our investment programs. The Company’s average tax rate for its investment programs

may

change in the future due to circumstances outside of its control and therefore, the Company cannot provide any assurances that its average tax rate for its investment programs will continue at an approximate rate of

10%

in the future.

Amendment to the Law for the Encouragement of Capital Investments,

1959

(Amendment

December 2016,

the Economic Efficiency Law (Legislative Amendments for Applying the Economic Policy for the

2017

and

2018

Budget Years),

2016

which includes Amendment

to the Law for the Encouragement of Capital Investments (the

“2016

Amendment") was published. According to the

2016

Amendment, a preferred enterprise located in development area A will be subject to a tax rate of

7.5%

instead of

effective from

January 1, 2017

and thereafter. DSP Israel is

not

located in development area A and the tax rate applicable to preferred enterprises like DSP Israel located in other areas remains at

16%,subject

to the below.

The

2016

Amendment also prescribes special tax tracks for technological enterprises. The new tax tracks under the

2016

Amendment are as follows:

Technological preferred enterprise - an enterprise for which total consolidated revenues of its parent company and all subsidiaries are less than NIS

billion (

$2.7

billion). A technological preferred enterprise, as defined in the Law, which is located in the center of Israel will be subject to tax at a rate of

12%

on profits deriving from intellectual property. DSP Israel is located in the center of Israel.

Any dividends distributed to "foreign companies" as defined in the Law, deriving from income from the technological enterprises, will be subject to a tax rate of

4%.

The Company evaluated the effect of the adoption of the

2016

Amendment on its financial statements and determined to

not

apply for the

2016

Amendment. Rather, the Company has continued to comply with the Law as it was in effect prior to enactment of the

2016

Amendment until the earlier of such time that compliance with the Law prior to enactment of the

2016

Amendment is

longer in the Company’s best interests or until the expiration of its current investment programs. The Company

may

change its position in the future.

The Company is required to comply with the

2016

Amendment subsequent to the expiration of the Company’s current investment programs and for any new qualified investment program after a transitional period. Once the Company is required to comply with the

2016

Amendment, its average tax rate

may

increase.

As of

December 31, 2018,

DSP Israel believed that it met all the conditions required under the plans, which include, among other things, an obligation to invest certain amounts in property and equipment and an obligation to finance a percentage of investments by share capital.

Should DSP Israel fail to meet such conditions in the future, it could be subject to corporate tax in Israel at the standard tax rate (

23%

for

2018

) plus a consumer price index linkage adjustment and interest and could be required to refund tax benefits already received.

As of

December 31, 2018,

approximately

$57,675

was derived from tax exempt profits earned by DSP Israel’s “Approved Enterprises” and “Beneficiary Enterprises.” The Company has determined that such tax-exempt income will

not

be distributed as dividends and intends to reinvest the amount of its tax exempt income earned by DSP Israel. Accordingly,

provision for deferred income taxes has been provided on income attributable to DSP Israel’s “Approved Enterprises” and “Beneficiary Enterprises” as such income is essentially permanently reinvested.

If DSP Israel’s retained tax-exempt income is distributed, the income would be taxed at the applicable corporate tax rate (currently

10%

) as if it had

not

elected the alternative tax benefits under the Investment Law and an income tax liability of approximately

$6,408

would have been incurred as of

December 31, 2018.

Fair Value Measurement, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Fair value of financial instruments:

for more information.

The Company accounts for certain assets and liabilities at fair value under ASC

820,

The hierarchy below lists

three

levels of fair value based on the extent to which inputs used in measuring fair value are observable in the market. The Company categorizes each of its fair value measurements in

one

of these

three

levels based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

Level

Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level

Include other inputs that are directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace.

Level

Unobservable inputs which are supported by little or

market activity.

The fair value hierarchy also requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.

Inventory, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Inventories:

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Inventory reserves are provided to cover risks arising from slow-moving items or technological obsolescence.

the Company did

not

capitalize internal use software.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Goodwill, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Goodwill and other intangible assets:

not

amortized, but rather is subject to an annual impairment test.

ASC

350

prescribes a

two

-phase process for impairment testing of goodwill. The

first

phase screens for impairment, while the

second

phase (if necessary) measures impairment. Goodwill impairment is deemed to exist if the net book value of a reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value. In such a case, the

second

350

allows an entity to

first

assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform the

two

-step quantitative goodwill impairment test. An entity is

not

required to calculate the fair value of a reporting unit unless the entity determines, based on a qualitative assessment, that it is more likely than

not

that its fair value is less than its carrying amount.

Alternatively, ASC

350

permits an entity to bypass the qualitative assessment for any reporting unit and proceed directly to performing the

first

step of the goodwill impairment test.

The Company performs an annual impairment test on

December 31

of each fiscal year, or more frequently if impairment indicators are present.

The Company’s reporting units are consistent with the reportable segments identified in Note

16.

For the fiscal year ended

December 31, 2018,

2017

and

2016,

the Company performed a quantitative assessment on its goodwill and

impairment losses were identified.

Intangible assets that are

not

considered to have an indefinite useful life are amortized using the straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, which range from

years. The carrying amount of these assets is reviewed whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset

may

not

be recoverable. Recoverability of these assets is measured by comparison of the carrying amount of the asset to the future undiscounted cash flows the asset is expected to generate.

If such asset is considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured as the difference between the carrying amount of the assets and the fair value of the impaired asset.

During the fiscal year ended

December 31, 2018,

2017

and

2016,

impairment losses were identified.

January 1, 2018,

the Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”)

606,

“Revenue from Contracts with Customers” and all the related amendments (collectively “ASC

606”

) using the modified retrospective method. The Company recognized the cumulative effect of initially applying ASC

606

as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. The comparative information has

not

been restated and continues to be reported under the revenue recognition standards in effect for those periods. The reported results for

2018

reflect the application of ASC

606

guidance while the reported results for

2017

were prepared under the guidance of ASC

605,

“Revenue Recognition (ASC

[1]	Calculation of aggregate intrinsic value for options, RSUs and SARs outstanding and exercisable is based on the share price of the Company’s common stock as of December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016 which was $11.20, $12.50 and $13.05 per share, respectively. The intrinsic value for options and SARs exercised and RSUs vested during those years represents the difference between the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of exercise and vesting for RSUs and the exercise price of each option, RSU or SAR, as applicable.
[2]	Due to the ceiling imposed on the SAR grants, the outstanding amount above can be exercised for a maximum of 1,738 thousand shares of the Company’s common stock as of December 31, 2018.
[3]	SAR grants made on or after January 1, 2012 are convertible for a maximum number of shares of the Company’s common stock equal to 50% of the SAR units subject to the grant.
[4]	Due to the ceiling imposed on the SAR grants, the exercisable amount above can be exercised for a maximum of 667 thousand shares of the Company’s common stock as of December 31, 2018.
