Indicate by check mark whether the registrant (1) has filed all reports required to be filed by Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 during the preceding 12 months (or for such shorter period that the registrant was required to file such reports), and (2) has been subject to such filing requirements for the past 90 days. Yes þ No o

As of July 31, 2002, the registrant had 93,382,025 shares of common stock outstanding.

In the opinion of management of QLogic Corporation (“QLogic” or the “Company”), the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of June 30, 2002, the statements of income for the three months ended June 30, 2002 and July 1, 2001 and the statements of cash flows for the three months ended June 30, 2002 and July 1, 2001. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2002. The results of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2002 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire fiscal year. Certain items previously reported in specific financial statement captions have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation.

The Company computed basic net income per share based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the periods presented. Diluted net income per share was computed based on the weighted average number of common and dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the periods presented. The Company has granted certain stock options which have been treated as dilutive potential common shares.

The following table sets forth the computations of basic and diluted net income per share:

Options to purchase 4,733,204 and 3,523,409 shares of common stock with exercise prices that exceed the average market price of $45.93 and $45.70 during the three months ended June 30, 2002 and July 1, 2001,

respectively, were excluded from the calculation of diluted net income per share as their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 130, separates comprehensive income into two components: net income and other comprehensive income. Other comprehensive income refers to revenue, expenses, gains and losses that are recorded as an element of stockholders’ equity, but are excluded from net income. The Company’s other comprehensive income is comprised solely of unrealized gains and losses on marketable securities categorized as “available for sale” under SFAS No. 115, net of income taxes. The components of total comprehensive income were as follows:

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

This Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contains descriptions of our expectations regarding future trends affecting our business. These forward-looking statements and other forward-looking statements made elsewhere in this report are made in reliance upon safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of several factors, including, but not limited to those factors set forth and discussed under “Factors That May Affect Future Results” and elsewhere in this report, which include without limitation the fact that our operating results fluctuate significantly, that our business is dependent on the storage area network market that is new and unpredictable, and that our financial condition will be materially harmed if we do not maintain and gain market or industry acceptance of our products. Readers of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are urged to read those sections in their entirety. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking information included in this document, the inclusion of information should not be regarded as a representation by us or any other person that our objectives or plans will be achieved. QLogic undertakes no obligation to update or revise these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

The following table sets forth the results of operations and percentage of net revenues in our consolidated statements of income:

Our net revenues are derived primarily from the sale of SCSI and Fibre Channel-based products. We also license certain designs and receive royalty revenues and non-recurring engineering fees. Net revenues in the three months ended June 30, 2002 increased $9.1 million or 10% from the three months ended July 1, 2001, to $99.0 million. The increase was the result of a $13.2 million increase in sales of Fibre Channel products, offset by a $4.1 million decrease in sales of SCSI products. The increase in Fibre Channel revenues was largely attributable to an increase in sales of Fibre Channel host bus adapters, and to a lesser extent, Fibre Channel silicon chips. The decrease in SCSI revenues was due to a decrease in sales of SCSI host bus adapters compared to the previous year.

Export revenues in the three months ended June 30, 2002 increased $4.4 million or 9.5% from the three months ended July 1, 2001, to approximately $50.8 million, primarily due to increased sales to customers in Thailand and Taiwan and, to a lesser extent Singapore. As a percentage of net revenues, export revenues accounted for 51.3% in the three months ended June 30, 2002, which was down slightly from 51.6% in the three months ended July 1, 2001 due to increased sales to U.S. based customers. Export revenues are denominated in U.S. dollars.

A small number of customers account for a substantial portion of our net revenues, and we expect that a limited number of customers will continue to represent a substantial portion of our net revenues in the foreseeable future. We believe that our major customers continually evaluate whether or not to purchase products from alternate or additional sources. Additionally, our customers’ economic and market conditions frequently change. Accordingly, there can also be no assurance that a major customer will not reduce, delay or eliminate its purchases from us. Any such reduction, delay or loss of purchases could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Cost of revenues consist primarily of raw materials (including wafers and completed chips from third-party manufacturers), assembly and test labor, overhead and warranty costs. The gross profit percentage for the three months ended June 30, 2002 was 62.5%, an increase from 61.8% in the three months ended July 1, 2001. The increase in gross profit percentage was due to manufacturing efficiencies realized during the current quarter as well as a favorable shift in the mix of products sold toward products with higher average selling prices.

Our ability to maintain our current gross profit percentage can be significantly affected by factors such as supply costs and, in particular, the cost of silicon wafers, the worldwide semiconductor foundry capacity, the mix of products shipped, competitive price pressures, the timeliness of volume shipments of new products, the level of royalties received and our ability to achieve manufacturing cost reductions. We anticipate it will be increasingly more difficult to maintain or reduce manufacturing costs. Also, royalty revenues may be irregular or unpredictable. As a result of these and other factors, we do not anticipate the gross profit percentage to remain constant or increase at a rate consistent with historic trends, and, it may decline in future quarters.

Engineering and Development. Engineering and development expenses consist primarily of salaries and other personnel-related expenses, development-related expenditures, occupancy costs and computer support. We believe continued investments in engineering and development activities are critical to achieving our strategic objectives. We expect the dollar amount of engineering and development expenses will continue to increase in fiscal 2003.

During the three months ended June 30, 2002, engineering and development expenses increased $0.8 million to $18.2 million from $17.4 million in the three months ended July 1, 2001. The increase in spending was largely due to increased levels of headcount related spending for Fibre Channel and SCSI design, as well as iSCSI and enclosure management product design. As a percentage of net revenues, engineering and development expenses decreased to 18.4% in the three months ended June 30, 2002 from 19.4% in the similar prior year period. The decrease as a percentage of net revenues was due to economies of scale realized with the increase in revenues.

Selling and Marketing. Selling and marketing expenses consist primarily of sales and marketing salaries, sales commissions and related expenses, promotional activities and travel for sales and marketing personnel. We believe continued investments of these types of expenses are critical to the success of our strategy of expanding relationships with our customers. As a result, we expect sales and marketing expenditures will increase in the future.

During the three months ended June 30, 2002, selling and marketing expenses increased $0.4 million to $10.6 million from $10.2 million in the three months ended July 1, 2001. The increase in spending was largely due to increased staff in sales and marketing to manage new programs and support a broader range of customers. As a percentage of net revenues, sales and marketing expenses decreased to 10.7% in the three months ended June 30, 2002 from 11.3% in the similar prior year period. The decrease was due to economies of scale related to increasing revenue.

General and Administrative. General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and related expenses for executive, finance, accounting, human resources and information technology personnel.

Non-personnel related expenses consist of recruiting fees, professional services and corporate expenses. We expect general and administrative expenses to increase in absolute dollars as we add personnel and incur additional costs relating to the growth of the business.

During the three months ended June 30, 2002, general and administrative expenses decreased $1.2 million to $3.2 million from $4.4 million in the three months ended July 1, 2001. The decrease in spending was primarily due to a reduction of bad debt expense and lower amortization of intangible assets in the quarter ended June 30, 2002. The decrease in amortization of intangible assets relates to the completion of amortization of intangible assets related to our acquisition of SDR, Inc., as well as the implementation of SFAS No. 142 which requires us to cease amortization of certain intangible assets. Intangible asset amortization associated with the SDR, Inc. acquisition was $0.3 million in the three months ended July 1, 2001 and was zero in the three months ended June 30, 2002. Other intangible asset amortization was $0.3 million in the three months ended July 1, 2001 and was zero in the three months ended June 30, 2002. As a percentage of net revenues, general and administrative expenses decreased to 3.2% in the three months ended June 30, 2002 from 4.9% in the similar prior year period. The decrease as a percentage of net revenues was due to the lower amortization of intangible assets.

Interest and other income, net of interest expense, was $4.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002 and $5.1 million for the three months ended July 1, 2001. The decrease was largely due to a $1.0 million write-down of our equity investment in a privately held start-up company. This investment was accounted for using the cost method, and was deemed to be impaired based on overall market conditions and the deterioration of the financial condition of the investee company.

The Company’s effective tax rate approximated 33% for both the three-month period ended June 30, 2002, and July 1, 2001.

The preparation of our financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, and which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

We consider the following accounting policies to be both those most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and those that require the most subjective judgment:


	•	revenue recognition;

	•	inventory valuation; and

	•	accounting for investments.

Revenue recognition. We sell our products domestically and internationally primarily through OEM and distribution channel customers including distributors, system integrators and value added resellers who sell directly to end-users. Our significant customers include leading storage solution providers, server OEMs and storage OEMs.

We recognize revenue from product sales upon shipment except for sales to distributor customers, most of which have contractual rights of return and/or price protection. Revenue from sales to distributors is recognized when these distributors with right of return privileges, ship our products to their end-user customers based on data we receive from such distributors. Reserves for uncollectable accounts and allowances for estimated sales returns are provided at the time revenue is recognized. We reserve for

uncollectable accounts and product returns based on our historical experience and expectations regarding account collectability and future returns related to products shipped. Royalty and product development revenue is recognized when earned and when receipt is assured.

For all sales, we use a binding purchase order and/or signed agreement as evidence of an arrangement.

Our products are generally covered by a warranty of one to five years. We accrue a warranty reserve for the estimated costs to provide warranty services, which is based on historical experience and expectation of future conditions. To the extent we experience increased warranty claim activity or increased costs associated with servicing those claims, our warranty accrual will increase resulting in decreased gross profit.

Inventory valuation. Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market on a first-in, first-out basis. We use a standard cost system for purposes of determining cost. The standards are adjusted periodically to ensure they approximate actual costs. We write down the carrying value of our inventory to market value for estimated obsolete or excess inventory based upon assumptions about future demand and market conditions. We compare current inventory levels on a product basis to our current sales forecasts in order to assess our inventory balance. Our sales forecasts are based on economic conditions and trends (both current and projected), anticipated customer demand and acceptance of our current products, expected future products and other assumptions. If actual market conditions are less favorable than those projected by management, additional write-downs may be required.

Accounting for Investments. We classify our investments in marketable securities as “available for sale”, based on the criteria set forth in Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115 “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities.” We carry these investments at fair value, based on quoted market prices, and unrealized gains and losses are included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), which is reflected as a separate component of stockholders’ equity. Realized gains and losses are recognized upon the sale of our marketable securities in our statements of operations. We have established investment policy guidelines that we use to manage the financial institutions that have custody of our funds. Based on our guidelines, our investments generally consist of U.S. government, state and local, and corporate debt obligations with maturities ranging from one to sixty months. Under our current policies, we do not use interest rate derivative instruments to manage exposure to interest rate changes. The fair market value of our investments in marketable securities may be adversely affected due to a rise in interest rates, and we may suffer losses in principal if forced to sell securities that have declined in market value due to changes in interest rates. Additionally, the amount of interest income that we earn on our investments may be adversely affected by changes in interest rates.

Effective July 1, 2001, we adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 141 “Business Combinations”. SFAS No. 141 addresses financial accounting and reporting for business combinations and requires that all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 be accounted for by a single method — the purchase method. The adoption of SFAS No. 141 did not have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

SFAS No. 142 “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” requires that goodwill and intangible assets that have indefinite useful lives not to be amortized but rather be tested at least annually for impairment. We adopted SFAS No. 142 on April 1, 2002. The adoption of SFAS No. 142 resulted in a decrease of goodwill amortization of $0.3 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2002 from the quarter ended July 1, 2001.

In October 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 144 “Accounting for the Impairment and Disposal of Long Lived Assets.” SFAS No. 144 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. We do not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 144 to have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

In July 2002, SFAS No. 146, “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities” (SFAS No. 146) was issued. SFAS No. 146 requires companies to recognize costs associated with exit or disposal activities when they are incurred rather than at the date of a commitment to an exit or disposal plan. Examples

of costs covered by the standard include lease termination costs and certain employee severance costs that are associated with a restructuring, discontinued operation, plant closing or other exit or disposal activity. SFAS No. 146 is effective prospectively for exit or disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002, with earlier adoption encouraged. As the provisions of SFAS No. 146 are required to be applied prospectively after the adoption date, we cannot determine the potential effects that adoption of SFAS No. 146 will have on our consolidated financial statements.

Our combined balances of cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments have increased to $547.4 million at June 30, 2002 from $492.5 million at March 31, 2002. The increase was primarily attributable to positive cash flow from operations during the three months ended June 30, 2002.

Our primary source of liquidity is derived from working capital. Working capital increased $40.3 million to $575.9 million at June 30, 2002. The increase in working capital in the quarter ended June 30, 2002 was largely attributable to cash flow from operations. Historically, we have had a $5.0 million line of credit facility with Silicon Valley Bank which allowed us to borrow at the bank’s prime rate. The credit facility expired on July 5, 2002 and has not been renewed. There were no borrowings under this credit facility as of June 30, 2002.

Our cash flow provided by operations was $51.4 million in the three months ended June 30, 2002, and $28.3 million in the three months ended July 1, 2001. The increase in cash provided by operations was due to higher net income as well as increases in income taxes payable, accounts payable, and accrued compensation combined with a reduction in accounts and notes receivable, and partially offset by an increase in inventory.

Our cash flow used in investing activities was $4.9 million in the three months ended June 30, 2002 compared to $45.6 million in the three months ended July 1, 2001. The decrease in cash used in investing activities for the three months ended June 30, 2002 was primarily due to purchases of short-term investments being more closely aligned to maturing investments. Capital expenditures were $2.3 million in the three months ended June 30, 2002 and $2.7 million in the three months ended July 1, 2001. The decrease was due to limiting capital growth given the current economic conditions.

Our cash flow provided by financing activities was $3.2 million in the three months ended June 30, 2002 compared to $1.9 million in the three months ended July 1, 2001. The increase in cash provided by financing activities in the three months ended June 30, 2002 was primarily due to increases in proceeds from issuance of stock under employee stock plans.

We have certain obligations and commitments to make future payments in the form of non-cancelable purchase orders to our suppliers and commitments under operating lease arrangements. At June 30, 2002, there were $32.1 million in non-cancelable purchase orders all due within one year. Disclosure of operating lease commitments can be located in Note (10) of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 10-K for March 31, 2002.

We believe that existing cash and cash equivalent balances, short term investments, facilities and equipment leases, and cash flows from operating activities will provide us with sufficient funds to finance our operations for at least the next 12 months.

Except for the historical information contained herein, the information in this report constitutes forward-looking statements. When used in this report the words “shall,” “should,” “forecast,” “all of,” “projected,” “believes,” “anticipates,” “expects,” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. In addition, we may from time to time make oral forward-looking statements. We wish to caution readers that a number of important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include those discussed below, as well as those discussed above in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” or elsewhere in this report.

Our stock price may be volatile which could affect the value of your investment.

The market price of our common stock has fluctuated substantially, and there can be no assurance that such volatility will not continue. From January 1, 2002 through June 30, 2002, the market price has ranged from a low of $34.68 per share to a high of $57.10 per share. Several factors could impact our stock price including, but not limited to:


	•	announcements concerning QLogic, our competitors or customers;

	•	quarterly fluctuations in our operating results;

	•	introduction of new products or changes in product pricing policies by us or our competitors;

	•	conditions in the semiconductor industry;

	•	changes in market projections by industry forecasters;

	•	changes in estimates of our earnings by industry analysts; and

	•	market conditions for high technology equities in general.

In addition, stock markets have experienced extreme price and volume volatility in recent years and stock prices of technology companies have been especially volatile. This volatility has had a substantial effect on the market prices of securities of many public companies for reasons frequently unrelated to the operating performance of the specific companies. These broad market fluctuations could adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

Our operating results fluctuate significantly, which could cause our stock price to decline if our results fail to meet investors’ and analysts’ expectations.

We have experienced, and expect to continue to experience, fluctuations in sales and operating results from quarter to quarter. As a result, we believe that period-to-period comparisons of our operating results are not necessarily meaningful, and that such comparisons cannot be relied upon as indicators of future performance. In addition, there can be no assurance that we will maintain our current profitability in the future. A significant portion of our net revenues in each fiscal quarter result from orders booked in that quarter. Orders placed by major customers are typically based on their forecasted sales and inventory levels for our products. Fluctuations in our quarterly operating results may be the result of:


	•	changes in purchasing patterns by one or more of our major customers, order changes or rescheduling;

	•	gain or loss of significant customers;

	•	customer policies pertaining to desired inventory levels of our products;

	•	negotiations of rebates and extended payment terms;

	•	changes in our ability to anticipate in advance the mix of customer orders;

	•	level of inventory our customers require us to maintain in our field warehouses;

	•	the time, availability and sale of new products;

	•	changes in the mix of products having differing gross margins;

	•	variations in manufacturing capacities, efficiencies and costs;

	•	the availability and cost of components, including silicon wafers;

	•	warranty expenses;


	•	variations in product development and other operating expenses;

	•	revenue adjustments related to product returns;

	•	adoption of new accounting pronouncements and/or changes in our policies; or

	•	general economic and other conditions affecting the timing of customer orders and capital spending.

Our quarterly results of operations are also influenced by competitive factors, including the pricing and availability of our products and our competitors’ products. Although we do not maintain our own wafer manufacturing facility, large portions of our expenses are fixed and difficult to reduce in a short period of time. If net revenues do not meet our expectations, our fixed expenses would magnify the effect on net income of such shortfall in net revenues. Furthermore, announcements regarding new products and technologies could cause our customers to defer or cancel purchases of our products. Order deferrals by our customers, delays in our introduction of new products, and longer than anticipated design-in cycles for our products have in the past adversely effected our quarterly results of operations. Due to these factors, as well as other unanticipated factors, it is likely that in some future quarter or quarters our operating results will be below the expectations of public market analysts or investors, and as a result, the price of our common stock could significantly decrease.

A long lasting downturn in the global economy that impacts information technology spending could negatively affect our business.

The global economy is in the midst of a slowdown that has had wide ranging effects on markets that we serve, particularly information technology, data storage and networking industries. This downturn has had a negative effect on our revenues and operating results, and many analysts have predicted that the recent terrorist attacks on the United States and the resulting worldwide conflict will prolong the downturn. We cannot predict the depth or duration of this downturn, and if it grows more severe or continues for a long period of time, our ability to increase or maintain our revenues and operating results may be impaired. In addition, because we intend to continue to make significant investments in research and development during this downturn, and to maintain extensive ongoing customer service and support capability, any further decline in the rate of growth of our revenues will have a significant adverse impact on our operating results.

Our business is dependent on the storage area network market that is relatively new and unpredictable, and if this market does not develop and expand as we anticipate, our business will suffer.

A significant number of our products are used exclusively in SANs and, therefore, our business is dependent on the SAN market. Accordingly, the widespread adoption of SANs for use in organizations’ computing systems is critical to our future success. Most of the organizations that potentially may purchase our products from our customers have invested substantial resources in their existing computing and data storage systems and, as a result, may be reluctant or slow to adopt a new approach like SANs. SANs are often implemented in connection with the deployment of new storage systems and servers. Therefore, our future success is also substantially dependent on the market for new storage systems and servers. Furthermore, the ability of the different components used in a SAN to function effectively, or interoperate, with each other when placed in a computing system has not yet been achieved on a widespread basis. Until greater interoperability is achieved, customers may be reluctant to deploy SANs. Our success in generating revenue in the emerging SAN market will depend on, among other things, our ability to:


	•	educate potential OEM customers, distributors, resellers, system integrators, storage service providers and end-user organizations about the benefits of SANs;

	•	maintain and enhance our relationships with OEM customers, distributors, resellers, system integrators, and storage system providers;

	•	predict and base our products on standards which ultimately become industry standards; and

	•	achieve interoperability between our products and other SAN components from diverse vendors.

Our financial condition will be materially harmed if we do not maintain and gain market or industry acceptance of our products.

The markets in which we compete involve rapidly changing technology, evolving industry standards and continuing improvements in products and services. Our future success depends, in part, on our ability to:


	•	enhance our current products and to develop and introduce in a timely manner new products that keep pace with technological developments and industry standards;

	•	compete effectively on the basis of price and performance; and

	•	adequately address original equipment manufacturer customer and end-user customer requirements and achieve market acceptance.

We believe that to remain competitive in the future we will need to continue to develop new products, which will require a significant investment in new product development. A significant portion of our revenues is generated from Fibre Channel technology. Our competitors are developing alternative technologies that may compete with the market acceptance of our Fibre Channel products, such as iSCSI, Infiniband, Serial Attached SCSI (SAS) and Serial Advanced Technology Attachment (SATA). If alternative standards are adopted by the industry, we may not be able to develop products for new standards in a timely manner. Further, even if alternative technologies do augment Fibre Channel revenues, our products may not be fully developed in time to be accepted by our customers. Even if our new products are developed on time, we may not be able to manufacture them at competitive prices in sufficient volumes.

We depend on a limited number of customers, and any decrease in revenue or cash flows from any one of our customers could cause our stock price to decline.

A small number of customers account for a substantial portion of our net revenues, and we expect that a limited number of customers will continue to represent a substantial portion of our net revenues in the foreseeable future. Additionally, we are also subject to credit risk associated with the concentration of our accounts receivable. The loss of any of our major customers would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Some of these customers are based in the Pacific Rim, which is subject to economic and political uncertainties. In addition, a majority of our customers order products through written purchase orders as opposed to long-term supply contracts and, therefore, such customers are generally not obligated to purchase products from us for any extended period. Major customers also have significant leverage over us and may attempt to change the terms, including pricing, which could materially adversely effect our business, financial condition and results of operations. This risk is increased due to the potential for some of these customers to merge with or acquire another of our customers. As our original equipment manufacturer customers are pressured to reduce prices as a result of competitive factors, we may be required to contractually commit to price reductions for our products before we know how, or if, cost reductions can be obtained. If we are unable to achieve such cost reductions, our gross margins could decline and such decline could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Competition within our product markets is intense and includes numerous established competitors.

The markets for our products are highly competitive and are characterized by short product life cycles, price erosion, rapidly changing technology, frequent product performance improvements and evolving industry standards. We currently compete primarily with Adaptec Inc. and LSI Logic Corporation in the SCSI sector of the I/ O market. In the Fibre Channel host bus adapter sector of the I/ O market, we compete primarily with LSI Logic Corporation, Emulex Corporation, JNI Corporation and Adaptec Inc. In the Fibre Channel host controller chip sector of the market we compete primarily with Agilent Technologies and LSI Logic Corporation. In the switch products sector, we compete with Brocade Communications, McData Corporation and several smaller companies. In the enclosure management sector, we compete primarily with Vitesse Semiconductor Corporation. We may compete with some of our larger disk drive and computer systems customers, some of which have the capability to develop integrated circuits for use in their own products. At

least one large original equipment manufacturer customer in the past has decided to vertically integrate and has therefore stopped purchasing from us.

We will need to continue to develop products appropriate to our markets to remain competitive as our competitors continue to introduce products with improved performance characteristics. While we continue to devote significant resources to research and development, these efforts may not be successful, or may not be developed and introduced in a timely manner. Further, several of our competitors have greater resources devoted to securing semiconductor foundry capacity because of long-term agreements regarding supply flow, equity or financing agreements or direct ownership of a foundry. In addition, while relatively few competitors offer a full range of storage area networking products, additional domestic and foreign manufacturers may increase their presence in these markets. We may not be able to compete successfully against these or other competitors. If we are unable to design, develop and introduce competitive new products on a timely basis, our future operating results will be materially and adversely affected.

Our distributors may not adequately distribute our products which could negatively affect our operations.

Our distributors generally offer a diverse array of products from several different manufacturers and suppliers. Accordingly, we are at risk that these distributors may give higher priority to selling products from other suppliers, thus reducing their efforts to sell our products. A reduction in sales efforts by our current distributors could materially adversely impact our business or operating results. Our distributors may on occasion build inventories in anticipation of substantial growth in sales, and if such growth does not occur as rapidly as we anticipate, distributors may decrease the amount of product ordered from us in subsequent quarters. In addition, if we decrease our distributor-incentive programs, our distributors may temporarily decrease the amounts of product purchased from us. This could result in a change of business habits, and distributors may decide to decrease the amount of product held and reduce their inventory levels. In addition, we may from time to time take actions to reduce levels of our products at distributors.

We depend on our relationships with wafer suppliers and other subcontractors, and a loss of these relationships may lead to unpredictable consequences which may harm our results of operations if alternative supply sources are not available.

We currently rely on multiple foundries to manufacture our semiconductor products either in finished form or wafer form. Generally, we conduct business with some of our foundries through written purchase orders as opposed to long-term supply contracts. Therefore, these foundries are generally not obligated to supply products to us for any specific period, in any specific quantity or at any specified price. If a foundry terminates its relationship with us or if our supply from a foundry is otherwise interrupted, we may not have a sufficient amount of time to replace the supply of products manufactured by that foundry. As a result, we may not be able to meet customer demands, which could harm our business.

Historically, there have been periods when there has been a worldwide shortage of advanced process technology foundry capacity. The manufacture of semiconductor devices is subject to a wide variety of factors, including the availability of raw materials, the level of contaminants in the manufacturing environment, impurities in the materials used, and the performance of personnel and equipment. We are continuously evaluating potential new sources of supply. However, the qualification process and the production ramp-up for additional foundries have in the past taken, and could in the future take, longer than anticipated. New supply sources may not be able or willing to satisfy our wafer requirements on a timely basis or at acceptable quality or unit prices.

We have not developed alternate sources of supply for our products. For example, our integrated single chip Fibre Channel controller is manufactured by LSI Logic and integrates LSI Logic’s transceiver technology. In the event that LSI Logic is unable or unwilling to satisfy our requirements for this technology, our marketing efforts related to Fibre Channel products would be delayed and, as such, our results of operations could be materially and adversely affected. The requirement that a customer perform separate product qualifications, or a customer’s inability to obtain a sufficient supply of products from us, may cause that customer to satisfy its product requirements from our competitors. Constraints or delays in the supply of

our products, due to capacity constraints, unexpected disruptions at our foundries or with our subcontractors, delays in obtaining additional production at the existing foundries or in obtaining production from new foundries, shortages of raw materials or other reasons, could result in the loss of customers.

Our products are complex and may contain undetected software or hardware errors that could lead to an increase in our costs, reduce our net revenues or damage our reputation.

Products as complex as ours frequently contain undetected software or hardware errors when first introduced or as newer versions are released. We have from time to time found errors in existing, new or enhanced products. The occurrence of hardware or software errors could adversely affect sales of our products, cause us to incur significant warranty and repair costs, divert the attention of our engineering personnel from our product development efforts and cause significant customer relations problems.

Terrorist activities and resulting military actions could adversely affect our business.

The terrorist attacks in New York and Washington, D.C. have disrupted commerce throughout the United States and Europe. The continued threat of terrorism within the United States and Europe and the military action and heightened security measures in response to such threat may cause significant disruption to commerce throughout the world. To the extent that such disruptions result in delays or cancellations of customer orders, delays in collecting cash, a general decrease in corporate spending on information technology, or our inability to effectively market, manufacture or ship our products, our business and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected. We are unable to predict whether the threat of terrorism or the responses thereto will result in any long-term commercial disruptions or if such activities or responses will have any long-term material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

Because we depend on foreign customers and suppliers, we are subject to international economic, regulatory and political risks that could harm our financial condition.

We expect that export revenues will continue to account for a significant percentage of our net revenues for the foreseeable future. As a result, we are subject to several risks, which include:


	•	a greater difficulty of administering our business globally;

	•	compliance with multiple and potentially conflicting regulatory requirements, such as export requirements, tariffs and other barriers;

	•	differences in intellectual property protections;

	•	difficulties in staffing and managing foreign operations;

	•	potentially longer accounts receivable cycles;

	•	currency fluctuations;

	•	export control restrictions;

	•	overlapping or differing tax structures;

	•	political and economic instability; and

	•	general trade restrictions.

A significant number of our customers and suppliers are located in Japan and the Pacific Rim. Historically, the Asian markets have suffered from economic uncertainty. This uncertainty has taken place especially in countries that have had a collapse in both their currency and stock markets. These economic pressures have reduced liquidity in the banking systems of the affected countries and, when coupled with spare industrial production capacity, could lead to widespread financial difficulty among the companies in this region. Our export sales are invoiced in U.S. dollars and, accordingly, if the relative value of the U.S. dollar in comparison to the currency of our foreign customers should increase, the resulting effective price increase of our products to such foreign customers could result in decreased sales. There can be no assurance that any of

We may need to engage in high risk transactions to guarantee we have production capacity which may require us to seek additional financing and result in dilution to our stockholders.

The semiconductor industry has, in the past, experienced shortages of available foundry capacity. Accordingly, in order to secure an adequate supply of wafers, we may consider various possible supply agreements. Those types of agreements include the use of “take or pay” contracts, making equity investments in, or advances to, wafer manufacturing companies in exchange for guaranteed production capacity, or the formation of joint ventures to own and operate or construct foundries or to develop certain products. Any of these arrangements would involve financial risk to us and could require us to commit a substantial amount of our funds or provide technology licenses in return for guaranteed production capacity. The need to commit our own funds may require us to seek additional equity or debt financing. The sale or issuance of additional equity or convertible debt securities could result in dilution to our stockholders. This kind of additional financing, if necessary, may not be available on terms acceptable to us.

We anticipate engaging in mergers, acquisitions and strategic investments, however, these activities may adversely affect our results of operations and stock price if they do not complement our business.

We anticipate that our future growth may depend in part on our ability to identify and acquire complementary businesses, technologies or product lines that are compatible with ours. Mergers and acquisitions involve numerous risks, including:


	•	uncertainties in identifying and pursuing target companies;

	•	difficulties in the assimilation of the operations, technologies and products of the acquired companies;

	•	the diversion of management’s attention from other business concerns;

	•	risks associated with entering markets or conducting operations with which we have no or limited direct prior experience;

	•	the potential loss of current customers and/or retention of the acquired company’s customers; and

	•	the potential loss of key employees of the acquired company.

Further, we may never realize the perceived benefits of a business combination. Future acquisitions by us could dilute stockholders’ investment, and cause us to incur debt, contingent liabilities and amortization/impairment expense related to intangible assets, all of which could materially adversely affect our results of operations. Effective July 1, 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, has issued, and we have adopted, SFAS No. 141 “Business Combinations”. SFAS No. 141 addresses financial accounting and reporting for business combinations and requires that all business combinations implemented after June 30, 2001 be accounted for using the purchase method of accounting. As a result, we will not be able to complete a business combination without incurring goodwill or other intangible assets. SFAS No. 142 “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” eliminates the quarterly and yearly recurring charges for the amortization of goodwill. A significant charge to earnings may be recorded if it can be determined that the goodwill or other intangible assets are impaired. This potential charge could have a material impact on our results of operations.

We have made, and plan to continue to make, investments in technology companies including privately held companies in a development stage. Many of these private equity investments are inherently risky because the companies’ businesses may never develop, and we may incur losses related to these investments. We may be required to reduce the value of those investments as reflected on our balance sheet, which also may affect our results of operations. In addition if we incur a charge to reflect other than temporary declines in the value of our private equity investments below our recorded value, our balance sheet and results of operations will be

Our business could be materially adversely affected as a result of the risks associated with strategic alliances.

We have alliances with leading information technology companies, and we plan to continue our strategy of developing key alliances in order to expand our reach into emerging markets. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in our ongoing strategic alliances or that we will be able to find further suitable business relationships as we develop new products and strategies. Any failure to continue or expand such relationships could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial conditions.

There can be no assurance that companies with which we have strategic alliances, certain of which have substantially greater financial, marketing and technological resources than us, will not develop or market products in competition with us in the future, discontinue their alliances with us or form alliances with our competitors.

Continued rapid growth will strain our operations and require that we incur costs to upgrade our infrastructure.

We have recently experienced a period of rapid growth and expansion that has placed, and continues to place, a significant strain on our resources. Unless we manage this growth effectively, we may make mistakes in executing our business such as inaccurate sales forecasting, material planning, inventory management or financial reporting, which may result in unanticipated fluctuations in our operating results. We may not be able to install adequate control systems in an efficient and timely manner, and our current or planned personnel, systems, procedures and controls may not be adequate to support our future operations. In addition, we test substantially all of our products prior to shipment. If our capacity to conduct this testing does not expand concurrently with the anticipated growth of our business, product shipments could be delayed, which could result in delayed or lost revenues and customer dissatisfaction.

If we are unable to attract and retain key personnel, we may not be able to sustain or grow our business.

Our future success largely depends on our key engineering, sales, marketing and executive personnel, including highly skilled semiconductor design personnel and software developers. We also must identify and hire additional personnel. If we lose the services of key personnel, our business would be adversely affected. We believe that the market for key personnel in the industries in which we compete is highly competitive. In particular, periodically we have experienced difficulty in attracting and retaining qualified engineers and other technical personnel and anticipate that competition for such personnel will increase in the future. We may not be able to attract and retain key personnel with the skills and expertise necessary to develop new products in the future, or to manage our business, both in the United States and abroad.

Our proprietary rights may be inadequately protected, and infringement claims or adverse judgments could harm our competitive position.

Although we have patent protection on some aspects of our technology in some jurisdictions, we rely primarily on trade secrets, copyrights and contractual provisions to protect our proprietary rights. There can be no assurance that these protections will be adequate to protect our proprietary rights, that others will not independently develop or otherwise acquire equivalent or superior technology or that we can maintain such technology as trade secrets. There also can be no assurance that any patents we possess will not be invalidated, circumvented or challenged. In addition, the laws of certain countries in which our products are or may be developed, manufactured or sold, including various countries in Asia, may not protect our products and intellectual property rights to the same extent as the laws of the United States or at all. If we fail to protect our intellectual property rights, our business would be negatively impacted.

Intellectual property claims have been made against us in the past, and patent or other intellectual property infringement claims could be made against us in the future. Although patent and intellectual property

disputes may be settled through licensing or similar arrangements, costs associated with these arrangements may be substantial and the necessary licenses or similar arrangements may not be available to us on satisfactory terms or at all. As a result, we could be prevented from manufacturing and selling some of our products. In addition, if we litigate these kinds of claims, the litigation could be expensive and time consuming and could divert management’s attention from other matters. Our business could suffer regardless of the outcome of the litigation. Our supply of wafers and other components can also be interrupted by intellectual property infringement claims against our suppliers.

Our charter document and shareholder rights plan may discourage companies from acquiring us and offering our stockholders a premium for their stock.

Pursuant to our certificate of incorporation, our board of directors is authorized to approve the issuance of shares of currently undesignated preferred stock without any vote or future action by the stockholders. Pursuant to this authority, in June 1996 our board of directors adopted a shareholder rights plan and declared a dividend of a right to purchase one one-hundredths of a share of preferred stock for each outstanding share of our common stock. After adjustment for each of the three two-for-one stock splits effected by us to date, our common stock now carries one-eighth of the preferred stock purchase right per share. The shareholder rights plan may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of our stock. This may discourage bids for our common stock at a premium over the market price of the common stock and may adversely affect the market price of the common stock.

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, requires management to make estimates when interpreting and applying critical accounting policies.

We use estimates when recording certain balances in our consolidated financial statements, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. These estimates impact the amounts reported in the financial statements, and include estimates with respect to the following:


	•	sales discounts and returns;

	•	allowances for bad debts;

	•	warranty expenses;

	•	deferred revenues; and

	•	valuation of inventory.

Actual results could materially differ from these estimates, which could in turn impact the amounts reported in our financial statements.

Our corporate headquarters and principal design facilities are located in a region that is subject to earthquakes and other natural disasters, as well as electricity shortages.

Our California facilities, including our principal executive offices, our principal design facilities, and our critical business operations are located near major earthquake faults. We are not specifically insured for earthquakes, or other such natural disasters. Any personal injury or damage to the facilities as a result of such occurrences could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Additionally, our operations depend upon a continuing adequate supply of electricity, natural gas and water. These energy sources have historically been available on a continuous basis and in adequate quantities for our needs. An interruption in the supply of raw materials or energy inputs for any reason would have an adverse effect on our manufacturing operations. Recently, California has had power shortages resulting in rolling blackouts, or the temporary and generally unannounced loss of electrical power. These shortages could affect our ability to supply products to our customers on a timely basis.

At June 30, 2002, our investment portfolio consisted of fixed income securities, excluding those classified as cash equivalents, with a fair value of $421.6 million. The carrying amount of these securities approximates fair market value. These securities are subject to interest rate risk and will decline in value if market interest rates increase. If market interest rates were to increase immediately and uniformly by 10% from levels as of June 30, 2002, the decline in the fair value of the portfolio would not be material to our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
