ITEM 1. BUSINESS.

Overview
 
    ANADIGICS, Inc. (“we” or the “Company”) is a leading provider of semiconductor solutions in the rapidly growing broadband wireless and wireline communications markets.  Our products include power amplifiers (PAs), tuner integrated circuits, active splitters, line amplifiers and other components, which can be sold individually or packaged as integrated radio frequency (RF) and front end modules.  We believe that we are uniquely positioned to capitalize on the rapidly-growing voice, data and video segments of the broadband wireless and wireline communications markets.  We offer third generation (3G) products that use the Wideband Code-Division Multiple Access (W-CDMA) and Enhanced Data Rates for Global System for Mobile Communication Evolution (EDGE) standards and combinations of W-CDMA and EDGE platforms (WEDGE), beyond third generation (3.5G) products that use the High Speed Packet Access (HSPA, inclusive of downlink and uplink) and Evolution Data Optimized (EVDO) standards, fourth generation (4G) products for Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMAX) inclusive of WiBRO systems, Wireless Fidelity (WiFi) products that use the 802.11 a/b/g and 802.11 n (Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO)) standards, cable television (CATV) cable modem and set-top box products, CATV infrastructure products and Fiber-To-The-Premises (FTTP) products.
 
    Our business strategy focuses on developing RF front end solutions and partnering with industry-leading wireless chipset providers to incorporate our solutions into their reference designs.  Our integrated solutions enable our customers to improve RF performance, power efficiency, reliability, time-to-market and the integration of chip components into single packages, while reducing the size, weight and cost of their products.  We have established longstanding relationships with several of the industry-leading chipset suppliers and tier-one customers.  For example, our relationships with Qualcomm Incorporated (Qualcomm), Intel Corporation (Intel), Cisco Systems Inc (Cisco) and Motorola, Inc. (Motorola) have enabled us to develop RF products used in 3G, 3.5G, 4G WiMAX, WiFi and CATV products and to be the primary supplier with respect to such partners and customers.  Other leading chipset suppliers and tier-one customers with whom we are engaged include Beceem Communications, Inc (Beceem), Broadcom Corp. (Broadcom), High Tech Computer Corp. (HTC), Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. (Huawei), KYOCERA Corporation (Kyocera), LG Electronics Inc. (LG Electronics), Marvell Technology Group Ltd. (Marvell), Murata Manufacturing Co., Ltd. (Murata), Novatel Wireless, Inc. (Novatel), NXP B.V. (NXP), Palm, Inc. (Palm), Research In Motion Limited (RIM), Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. (Samsung), Sierra Wireless, Inc. (Sierra Wireless), Texas Instruments Incorporated (Texas Instruments) and ZTE Corporation (ZTE).
 
    We were incorporated in Delaware in 1984. Our corporate headquarters are located at 141 Mt. Bethel Road, Warren, New Jersey 07059, and our telephone number at that address is 908-668-5000.

Current Trends and Developments
 
    We believe our business is benefiting from three key factors: (1) high growth in the markets for 3G, 3.5G, 4G WiMAX, WiFi and CATV products, (2) an increased dollar content of our solutions within the products in these end markets, and (3) greater financial leverage in our business model derived from increased utilization of our production capacity and our high-margin product mix.  We believe that the combination of these three factors has enabled us to outpace the overall end product unit growth in the broadband wireless and wireline communications markets.  For example, additional PAs with higher performance levels and integration are required in 3G and 3.5G wireless handsets as compared to prior standards.  The complexity of 3G, 3.5G and 4G designs coupled with our selection in several leading reference designs allows us to capitalize on the growth in the 3G, 3.5G and 4G markets. In the WiFi market, our business is benefiting from both the continued unit growth in the overall WiFi market as well as the growing adoption of the 802.11 a/b/g standards and the 802.11 n MIMO standard, which commonly use multiple PAs with each chipset.  We are experiencing growth in our CATV set-top box business, comprised of semiconductor tuners and active splitters, as a result of the increasing popularity of cable set-top boxes that incorporate enhanced functionality such as digital video recorders (DVRs) and high definition television (HDTV) reception.  In addition, we believe that a new generation of cable modems based on the Data Over Cable Service Interface Specification 3.0 (DOCSIS-3.0) standard will increase the addressable market for our semiconductor tuners and upstream amplifiers.  We believe our infrastructure business will continue to benefit from the adoption of 1 GHz CATV products from Cisco, driven by system upgrades from the existing 870 MHz standard in the U.S., from increased demand in the European and Chinese markets for such CATV products, and from optical network amplifiers used in FTTP systems such as Verizon Communication Inc.’s (Verizon) FiOS.
 
    We continue to focus on leveraging our technological and manufacturing advantages to remain a leading supplier of semiconductor solutions for broadband wireless and wireline communications.  We believe our patented InGaP-plus technology, which combines the bipolar technology of a PA (HBT PA) with the surface device technology of an RF active switch (pHEMT) on the same die, provides us with a competitive advantage in the marketplace.  Additionally, we believe our InGaP-plus process and design technologies such as High Efficiency at Low Power (HELP) provide a competitive advantage by enabling us to provide PAs that consume less battery power and extend talk time for products in the 3G, 3.5G and 4G markets.
 
    Our primary fabrication facility (fab), a state-of-the-art six-inch diameter Gallium Arsenide (GaAs) fab located at our corporate headquarters in Warren, New Jersey, has been operational since 1999.  The increased utilization of our fab’s manufacturing capacity has increased our gross margins, which has provided us with improved financial leverage.  We are actively exploring future sources of additional manufacturing capacity including the construction of a manufacturing facility in China, as well as pursuing relationships with foundries.  Unlike traditional CMOS silicon fabs that have short technology lifecycles and require frequent capital investments, GaAs fabs are more similar to analog fabs that have long lifecycles and do not become quickly outdated.  Our six-inch wafer fab allows us to produce more than twice the RF die per wafer compared with the four-inch wafer fabs still used by some of our competitors.
 
    On April 2, 2007, the Company sold the majority of the operating assets of Telcom Devices Inc. (Telcom, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company) to GTRAN Camarillo, Inc. in exchange for $500 and effectively ceased Telcom’s operations. Accordingly, the financial results, position and cash flow of Telcom have been classified as  discontinued operations  in the accompanying financial statements for all periods presented.

    In early 2007, the Company signed an agreement with the Kunshan New and Hi-Tech Industrial Development Zone (KSND) in China to jointly construct a wafer fabrication facility. The agreement requires the Company to invest approximately $50 million over a ten-year period, inclusive of $16.7 million due by January 31, 2010.
 
    On September 5, 2007, the Company purchased certain assets and assumed certain related obligations of the radio frequency group (RF group) of Fairchild Semiconductor. In addition, the Company hired 23 employees of the RF group’s staff.

Industry Background
 
Wireless 3G Market
 
    Growth in the unit shipments of wireless handsets that use the 2.5G EDGE and 3G standards is expected to significantly outpace the growth in the overall number of wireless handset unit shipments in the next several years.  According to Allied Business Intelligence (ABI), the number of wireless handsets manufactured to these new technological standards is expected to grow from 431.5 million units shipped in 2006 to 944.5 million units by 2010, representing a 21.7 %compound annual growth rate, as compared to the overall number of wireless handsets manufactured , which is expected to grow from 992.2 million units in 2006 to 1,466.8 million units in 2010, representing a compound annual growth rate of 10.3% during the same period. As a qualified PA supplier on several leading Qualcomm reference designs for the HSPA and the EVDO standards, we believe we are well positioned to benefit from the transition to 3G and 3.5G.
 
    Traditionally, a single PA supported a chipset contained in a wireless handset.  However, the adoption of 3G and 3.5G technologies and the deployment of 3G and 3.5G networks by telecommunications carriers have led to wireless handset designs that use multiple PAs capable of working with both older frequencies and newer multiple W-CDMA frequencies.  These wireless handsets also require PAs with higher power performance specifications and levels of integration.
 
The key drivers of growth in the wireless handset market are:

·  
Deployment of 3G and 3.5G networks and services.
 
·  
New subscribers in emerging markets.
 
·  
Availability of new features and functionality driving replacements.
 
·  
Convergence of voice, data and video services.
 
    The wireless capabilities of wireless handsets are provided primarily by a semiconductor chipset.  The key components of a wireless chipset are typically a PA, transceiver and baseband.  The PA boosts the transmit signal, thereby providing the necessary range and data throughput.  As additional features and functionality are incorporated into wireless handsets to leverage the 3G and 3.5G broadband networks that enable streaming voice, data and video services, increasing demands are placed on the wireless handset battery, thereby reducing battery life.  The high-performance PA is a critical component in the chipset as it directly impacts battery life and, consequently, available talk time.  We believe our differentiated InGaP-plus process and design technologies such as HELP provide a competitive advantage by enabling us to provide PAs that consume less battery power and extend talk time.  The adoption of 3G and 3.5G networks with HSPA standards for voice and multimedia is a positive catalyst for our 3G and 3.5G products.  3G and 3.5G networks not only enable data and multimedia applications, but also provide for a lower cost per subscriber, and as a result are being quickly adopted by network service providers.
 
    In addition to wireless handsets and data cards, 3G and 3.5G capabilities are also increasingly being embedded within notebook computers produced by companies such as Dell Inc. and Hewlett Packard, Inc.  We are a leading participant in this market through the use of our technologies in the reference designs of Novatel, Option N.V., Sierra Wireless and other providers in this growing market.

4G WiMAX Market
 
    The 4G WiMAX standard has gained momentum, as Clearwire Corporation and Sprint Nextel Corp. have committed to launch mobile WiMAX systems in the U.S. and a number of chipset developers and equipment manufacturers, including Beceem Communications, Sequans Communications, Intel, Samsung and Motorola, have engaged in product development to support these systems.  According to IDC, worldwide shipments of semiconductor chipsets for WiMAX products will grow from 2.5 million in 2007 to almost 41 million in 2010, representing a 152% compounded annual growth rate over that period of time.  We currently ship WiMAX PAs for point-to-point connectivity to customers such as Airspan Network, Inc. and Alvarion, Ltd., based on Beceem and Intel reference designs, as well as WiBRO (a WiMAX standard) PAs for mobile solutions to Samsung.  We believe that our relationships with these and other leading WiMAX equipment and chipset vendors, including those listed above, have positioned us to be one of the market-leading providers of PAs in the point-to-point and mobile WiMAX markets.

Wireless Fidelity (WiFi)
 
    As with wireless handsets, the wireless capabilities of WiFi, or wireless LAN (WLAN), networking products are provided primarily by a semiconductor chipset.  A WiFi chipset typically contains a PA, radio transceiver and a digital media access controller.  The PA boosts the transmit signal, thereby improving the range and data throughput.  Traditionally, either a single-band or multi-band PA supported each WiFi chipset depending on the complexity of the system.  In 2007, WiFi products for mobile computing expanded into MIMO architectures which had two major impacts on the power amplifier space:  (i) For every WiFi chipset in a MIMO system, as many as three single or multi-band power amplifiers are required and (ii) with the increase in functionality combined with requirements for smaller product size, it has become more common for power amplifiers to be embedded in front end modules (FEM) and front end integrated circuits (FEIC).
 
    With the 802.11n Draft 2.0 approval in March 2007, the expansion of WiFi products into the MIMO realm was strong throughout 2007 and looks to continue through 2008.  MIMO technology offers substantial growth opportunities in the WiFi.  With two or three multi-band power amplifiers required for each MIMO-enabled notebook computer, the growth rate of power amplifier demand now outpaces the WiFi chipset by two to three times.  The worldwide unit shipments of multi-band power amplifiers as stand alone devices or embedded in FEMs for 802.11n systems are expected to have a 97.9% compound annual growth rate from 2007 to 2010 according to Strategy Analytics.  We offer a strong portfolio of differentiated products in this high-growth market.  For example, we are currently the primary supplier to Intel, the leading manufacturer of WiFi chipsets for the notebook computer market, and expect to benefit from both the unit growth and increased PA content in dual-band 802.11n MIMO WiFi systems.
 
    Not only are WiFi attach rates in notebook computers increasing to record numbers, but WiFi functionality is now being embedded in other consumer electronic devices such as cameras, printers, audio devices, mobile phones and gaming consoles.  We are currently designed into a variety of wireless access points, and printers along side WiFi chipsets from Broadcom and have two market-leading FEIC products that are used along side WiFi chipsets from Marvell in industry-leading smart phone applications. We will continue to actively engage in discussions to be included in the next-generation reference designs of these and other leading WiFi chipset providers for all applications.

Cable Set-Top Box and Cable Modem Markets
 
    The markets for CATV set-top boxes and cable modems are being shaped by several key trends.  Set-top boxes are incorporating advanced functionality, to leverage the convergence of voice, data and video services over the broadband network, such as DVR, HDTV, wireless internet access, interactive services, home networking and gaming.  These new features are driving demand for both new and replacement set-top boxes.   As a long-term supplier to Cisco and Motorola, we believe that we are well positioned to benefit from these trends.  We also believe that the rollouts of DTV in China and parts of Europe, and Verizon’s FiOS in the U.S., are contributing to sustained demand for digital set-top boxes.
 
    We also believe that as the cable modem market transitions to the new DOCSIS 3.0 standard it will provide an additional opportunity for our semiconductor tuners and upstream amplifiers.  In-Stat predicts that worldwide shipments of DOCSIS 3.0 certified cable modems will increase from 1.8 million units in 2008 to over 16 million units in 2010, representing a 200% compounded annual growth rate over that period of time.  The DOCSIS 3.0 standard uses multiple channels simultaneously to provide wider bandwidth and higher data throughput, and we believe that we are well positioned with new products to support this market opportunity.

CATV Infrastructure and FTTP
 
    We are a leading supplier of 12V and 24V line amplifier radio frequency integrated circuit (RFIC) amplifiers and drop amplifiers to the CATV infrastructure market.  This market is experiencing growth globally as a result of increasing CATV infrastructure bandwidth requirements, the need of cable service providers to offer converged voice, data and video services over their broadband networks, and the increased deployment of CATV fiber nodes.  We are participating in the upgrade in infrastructure bandwidth to 1 GHz through our collaboration with Cisco, and as a result of the rollout of digital cable in China and parts of Europe.  Historically, we have enjoyed long product life cycles in these markets.  Additionally, we are providing optical network RF amplifiers in the FTTP market for use in systems such as Verizon’s FiOS, for which deployments continue throughout the U.S.

Our Strategy
 
    Our objective is to be the leading supplier of RF semiconductor solutions to enable broadband delivery in the wireless and wireline communications markets.  The key elements of our strategy include:

·  
Pursue growth opportunities in selected broadband wireless and wireline markets.  We believe that the technologies we have developed are most suited for providing semiconductor solutions for the broadband wireless and wireline communications markets.  We also believe that the growing convergence of voice, data and video services has created opportunities for further implementation of our solutions.  We intend to focus on these opportunities by continuing to develop solutions for (1) 3G, 3.5G, WEDGE, HSPA and WiMAX and other 4G standards, (2) WiFi 802.11 a/b/g and 802.11 n, and (3) CATV DVR set-top boxes, DOCSIS-3.0 cable modems and CATV and FTTP infrastructure amplifiers.
 
·  
Focus on gross margin expansion.  We seek to increase our gross margins and profitability by focusing on those products and markets where we currently enjoy a leading market position and have strong technological leadership.  We intend to focus on supplying products in the following markets for this purpose:  (1) 3G, 3.5G, WEDGE, HSPA and WiMAX and other 4G standards, (2) WiFi 802.11 a/b/g and 802.11 n, and (3) CATV DVR set-top box, DOCSIS-3.0 cable modems and CATV and FTTP infrastructure amplifiers.
 
·  
Expand existing relationships with industry leaders.  Because only a few wireless chipset providers lead the wireless handset market, selection in these companies’ reference designs is critical to driving component sales to wireless handset manufacturers.  We have been selected in reference designs at Broadcom, NXP and Qualcomm, three of the leading advanced generation chipset providers, and by leaders in the cable modem and WiMAX/WiBRO market, such as Texas Instruments and Intel and Samsung. We believe that expanding our relationships with these companies will continue to contribute to future growth and market share gains.
 
·  
Focus on tier-one customers.  Our customers include tier-one manufacturers in our target markets, such as Cisco, Intel, LG Electronics, Motorola and Samsung.  We believe that as industry leaders these companies will benefit from the positive trends in their respective markets.  We intend to continue to focus on building customer relationships with these market leaders, as well as to expand our tier-one customer base.
 
·  
Continue to focus on the RF front end.  In the wireless handset and WiFi markets, we intend to remain primarily focused on developing solutions in the RF front end.  By remaining focused on the RF front end we will leverage our efficient use of research and development spending and our high degree of business compatibility with our chipset partners.
 
·  
Expand business in Asia.  We believe that sales to wireless OEMs and ODMs in Asian markets represent a significant growth opportunity for our business.  These manufacturers represent global tier-one suppliers such as LG Electronics and Samsung, ODMs and leading Asian wireless manufacturers such as HTC, Huawei and ZTE.  Not only do these manufacturers export their products to North America, South America and Europe, but they also use our products in their growing domestic markets.  Asian handset manufacturers tend to more closely follow the reference designs of leading wireless chipset providers.  As a result, we intend to leverage our selection in the reference designs of Broadcom, NXP and Qualcomm to further penetrate the growing Asian market.
 
·  
Leverage our RF design, differentiated leading-edge technology and manufacturing capabilities.  We intend to use our RF design and manufacturing capabilities to continue to develop products with high performance, power efficiency and reliability, while reducing their size, weight and cost.  We expect to continue to apply our patented InGaP-plus technology to achieve a high level of integration in our products and reduce our costs of production.  In addition, we will focus on increasing the capacity of our six-inch wafer fab, which allows us to produce more than twice the RF die per wafer compared with the four-inch wafer fabs still used by some of our competitors.
 
 
Products
 
    We classify our revenues based upon the end application of the product in which our integrated circuits are used.  For the years ended December 31, 2005, 2006 and 2007, wireless accounted for approximately 51%, 55% and 56%, respectively, of our total net sales, while broadband accounted for approximately 49%, 45% and 44%, respectively, of our total net sales.

    As part of our business plans, we are actively exploring future sources of additional manufacturing capacity including construction of a facility in China, as well as pursuing relationships with foundries.
 
    Assembly
 
    Fabricated GaAs wafers are shipped to contractors in Asia for packaging into standard plastic lead frame-based packaging or modules.
 
    Since the processes cannot be easily or economically integrated onto a single die, multi-chip modules that combine multiple die within a single package have taken hold, enabling the selection of the optimal process technology for each IC within the package.  This provides enhanced integration at the sub-system level.  These solutions generate significant size reductions in wireless handset component circuitry.
 
    Modules allow our customers to get their product to market more rapidly at a lower overall end product cost due largely to the reduced parts count and reduction in required engineering effort.  We believe we are well positioned to address the shift toward more complex multi-chip modules because we possess both extensive process breadth (a key advantage, as modules typically incorporate numerous process technologies) and a large portfolio of RF expertise (e.g., PAs, switches, transceivers, filters, and discretes).
 
    Final Test
 
    After assembly, packaged ICs are tested prior to shipment to our customers.  We outsource most of our production RF testing operations, which are performed near our module assembly contractors in Asia.  This adds considerable efficiencies to the device manufacturing process in reducing product cycle times and manufacturing costs and supports our initiative to reduce manufacturing costs.

Raw Materials
 
    GaAs wafers, HBT/pHEMT epitaxial wafers, passive components, other raw materials, and equipment used in the production of our ICs are available from a limited number of sources.  See “Risk Factors—Sources for certain components, materials and equipment are limited, which could result in delays or reductions in product shipments.”

Research and Development
 
    We have made significant investments in our proprietary processes, including product design and wafer fabrication, which we believe gives us a competitive advantage.  Research and development expenses were $29.3 million, $35.1 million and $46.5 million in 2005, 2006 and 2007, respectively. We continue to focus our research and development on PAs and front end modules for EDGE, CDMA, EVDO, W-CDMA, HSPA in the wireless handset and infrastructure markets, and on semiconductor tuners, active splitters, WiFi Pas and Front-End ICs, WiMAX PAs, CATV infrastructure amplifiers and FTTP amplifiers in the broadband market.
 
    Our wireless PA capability has expanded from plastic-packaged GaAs RFIC products to RF modules incorporating multiple technologies.  This capability is critical to encapsulating RF intellectual property and know-how into a module that may be used to shrink the time-to-market for wireless handset manufacturers.
 
    Module integration capability required extending our design tools in several dimensions.  Electromagnetic simulation of laminate substrates to design embedded passive components and model parasitic effects were added to our RF design tool set.  In addition, the ability to simulate at the module level was greatly enhanced through our partnership with a leading manufacturer of electronic design automation tools.
 
    Additionally, several silicon CMOS components were developed to support our PA module and other products.  We do not intend to manufacture this technology in-house, as we believe there will be adequate external foundry capacity available.  See “Risk Factors—Sources for certain components, materials and equipment are limited, which could result in delays or reductions in product shipments.”

Customers
 
    Sales to Intel and Samsung accounted for 22% and 13%, respectively, of total net sales during 2007.  Sales to Huawei, Cisco, World Peace Group and LG each accounted for 10% of total net sales for the same period.  No other customer accounted for 10% or more of total net sales during 2007.  See “Risk Factors—We depend on a small number of customers; a loss of or a decrease in purchases and/or change in purchasing patterns by one of these customers would materially and adversely affect our revenues and our ability to forecast revenue.”

Employees
 
    As of December 31, 2007, we had 625 employees, including 8 employees in Denmark, 7 of whom were members of the Danish Engineering Union.  We believe our labor relations to be good and we have never experienced a work stoppage.

Competition
 
    We compete with U.S. and international semiconductor and integrated circuit manufacturers of all sizes.  Our key competitors are Avago Technologies Limited, Microtune,Inc., RF Micro Devices, Inc. (RFMD), SiGe Semiconductor, Inc., Skyworks Solutions, Inc. and TriQuint Semiconductor, Inc. (Triquint).
 
    Many of our competitors have significantly greater financial, technical, manufacturing and marketing resources than we do.  Increased competition could adversely affect our revenue and profitability through price reductions or reduced demand for our products.  See “Risk Factors—We face intense competition, which could result in a decrease in our products’ prices and sales.”

Patents, Licenses and Proprietary Rights
 
    It is our practice to seek U.S. patent and copyright protection on our products and developments where appropriate and to protect our valuable technology under U.S. laws affording protection for trade secrets and for semiconductor chip designs.  We own 59 U.S. patents and have 15 pending U.S. patent applications.  The U.S. patents were issued between 1991 and 2007 and will expire between 2010 and 2025.
 
    We rely primarily upon trade secrets, technical know-how and other unpatented proprietary information relating to our product development and manufacturing activities. To protect our trade secrets, technical know-how and other proprietary information, our employees are required to enter into agreements providing for maintenance of confidentiality and the assignment of rights to inventions made by them while in our employ.  We have also entered into non-disclosure agreements to protect our confidential information delivered to third parties in conjunction with possible corporate collaborations and for other purposes.  See “Risk Factors—We may not be successful in protecting our intellectual property rights or in avoiding claims that we infringe on the intellectual property rights of others.”

Environmental Matters
 
    Our operations are subject to federal, state and local environmental laws, regulations and ordinances that govern activities or operations that may have adverse effects on human health or the environment.  These laws, regulations or ordinances may impose liability for the cost of remediating, and for certain damages resulting from, sites of past releases of hazardous materials.  We believe that we currently conduct, and have conducted, our activities and operations in substantial compliance with applicable environmental laws and regulations, and that costs arising from existing environmental laws and regulations will not have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.  We cannot assure you, however, that such environmental laws and regulations will not become more stringent in the future or that we will not incur significant costs in the future in order to comply with these laws and regulations.  See “Risk Factors—We are subject to stringent environmental laws and regulations both domestically and abroad.”

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

CERTAIN STATEMENTS IN THIS REPORT ARE FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS (AS THAT TERM IS DEFINED IN THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934, AS AMENDED) THAT INVOLVE RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES. THESE FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS CAN GENERALLY BE IDENTIFIED AS SUCH BECAUSE THE CONTEXT OF THE STATEMENT WILL INCLUDE WORDS SUCH AS WE "BELIEVE", "ANTICIPATE", "EXPECT" OR WORDS OF SIMILAR IMPORT. SIMILARLY, STATEMENTS THAT DESCRIBE OUR FUTURE PLANS, OBJECTIVES, ESTIMATES OR GOALS ARE FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS. THE CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS MADE IN THIS REPORT SHOULD BE READ AS BEING APPLICABLE TO ALL RELATED FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS WHEREVER THEY APPEAR IN THIS REPORT. IMPORTANT FACTORS THAT COULD CAUSE ACTUAL RESULTS AND DEVELOPMENTS TO BE MATERIALLY DIFFERENT FROM THOSE EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED BY THE FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS PRESENTED HEREIN INCLUDE THE RISK FACTORS DISCUSSED BELOW, AS WELL AS THOSE DISCUSSED ELSEWHERE HEREIN.

IN ADDITION TO THE OTHER INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS REPORT, THE FOLLOWING RISK FACTORS SHOULD BE CONSIDERED CAREFULLY IN EVALUATING AN INVESTMENT IN THE COMPANY AND IN ANALYZING OUR FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS.

Risks Related to ANADIGICS
 
Our customers’ demand has outpaced our current manufacturing capacity.  In the event that we are unable to satisfy demand from any one of our customers or our customers in the aggregate, we may not be viewed as a dependable high volume supplier and our customers may source their demand elsewhere.

    The Company has had significant growth in revenues over the past two years whereby demand has exceeded our available capacity.   While the Company has made capital investments to expand equipment capacity in its primary fab in Warren, NJ and is constructing a facility in China and pursuing foundry relationships, we may not be able to add capacity at a sustainable pace with the growth of the market or with the growth of our customer’s. In the event we continue to be unable to meet our customers’ demand, we may be considered an undependable supplier and our customers may seek alternate suppliers.  If our customers seek alternate suppliers, our operating results could be adversely affected, as we may be unable to find alternative sources of revenue.

We have experienced losses in the past, and may experience losses in the future.

    We have incurred substantial operating and net losses in the past.    While we had positive operating results during calendar year 2007, we may experience future losses as a result of downturns in the economy or as a result of market factors beyond our control.  Additionally, we compete in an industry with limited visibility into customer’s forecasts beyond just a few quarters.   If economic conditions worsen or there is an abrupt change in our customer’s business or markets, our business, financial condition and results of operations will likely be materially and adversely affected.

We depend on a small number of customers; a loss of or a decrease in purchases and/or change in purchasing patterns by one of these customers could materially and adversely affect our revenues and our ability to forecast revenue.
 
    We receive a significant portion of our revenues from a few significant customers and their subcontractors.  Sales to Intel and Samsung accounted for 22% and 13%, respectively, of total net sales during 2007.  Sales to Huawei, Cisco, World Peace Group and LG each accounted for 10% of total net sales for the same period.  Sales to our greater than 10% customers have exceeded 35% of total net sales in each of the last three fiscal years, and in 2007 accounted for 75% of total net sales.  Our financial condition and results of operations have been materially and adversely affected in the past by the failure of anticipated orders to be realized and by deferrals or cancellations of orders as a result of changes in customer requirements.  If we were to lose any of our major customers, or if sales to these customers were to decrease materially, our financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

Sources for certain components, materials and equipment are limited, which could result in delays or reductions in product shipments.
 
    We do not manufacture any of the starting wafers, packaging or passive components used in the production of our gallium arsenide integrated circuits.  Wafers, packaging and passive components are available from a limited number of sources. To the extent that we are unable to obtain these wafers, packaging or passive components in the required quantities, as has occurred from time to time in the past, we could experience delays or reductions in product shipments, which could materially and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
 
    We depend on a limited number of vendors to supply the equipment used in our manufacturing processes.  When demand for semiconductor manufacturing equipment is high, lead times for delivery of such equipment can be substantial.  We cannot assure you that we would not lose potential sales if required manufacturing equipment is unavailable and, as a result, we are unable to maintain or increase our production levels.  A delay for any reason in increasing capacity would limit our ability to increase sales volumes, which could harm our relationships with customers.

We may face interruptions in our manufacturing processes.
 
    Our manufacturing operations are complex and subject to disruption, including for causes beyond our control.  The fabrication of integrated circuits is an extremely complex and precise process consisting of multiple steps.  It requires production in a highly controlled, clean environment.  Minor impurities, contamination of the clean room environment, errors in any step of the fabrication process, defects in the masks used to print circuits on a wafer, defects in equipment or materials, human error, or a number of other factors can cause a substantial interruption in our manufacturing processes.
 
    Additionally, our operations may be affected by lengthy or recurring disruptions of operations at any of our production facilities or those of our subcontractors.  These disruptions may include electrical power outages, fire, earthquakes, flooding, international conflicts, war, acts of terrorism, or other natural or man-made disasters.  Disruptions of our manufacturing operations could cause significant delays in our shipments unless and until we are able to shift the manufacturing of such products from an affected facility to another facility or the disruption is remedied.  Furthermore, many of our customers require that they qualify a new manufacturing source before they will accept products from such source.  This qualification process may be expensive and time consuming.  In the event of such delays, we cannot assure you that the required alternative capacity, particularly wafer production capacity, would be available on a timely basis or at all.  Even if alternative manufacturing capacity or assembly and test capacity is available, we may not be able to obtain it on favorable terms, which could result in higher costs and/or a loss of customers.  We may be unable to obtain sufficient manufacturing capacity to meet demand, either at our own facilities or through external manufacturing.
 
    Due to the highly specialized nature of the gallium arsenide integrated circuit manufacturing process, in the event of a disruption at the Warren, New Jersey semiconductor wafer fab, alternative gallium arsenide production capacity would not be readily available from third-party sources.  Any disruptions could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The variability of our manufacturing yields may affect our gross margins.
 
    Our manufacturing yields vary significantly among products, depending on the complexity of a particular integrated circuit’s design and our experience in manufacturing that type of integrated circuit.  We have experienced difficulties in achieving planned yields in the past, particularly in pre-production and upon initial commencement of full production volumes, which have adversely affected our gross margins.
 
    Regardless of the process technology used, the fabrication of integrated circuits is a highly complex and precise process.  Problems in the fabrication process can cause a substantial percentage of wafers to be rejected or numerous integrated circuits on each wafer to be nonfunctional, thereby reducing yields.  These difficulties can include:

·  
defects in masks, which are used to transfer circuit patterns onto our wafers;
 
·  
impurities in the materials used;
 
·  
operator errors;
 
·  
contamination of the manufacturing environment; and
 
·  
equipment failure.
 
Many of our manufacturing costs are fixed and average selling prices for our products tend to decline over time.  Therefore, it is critical for us to increase the number of shippable integrated circuits per wafer and increase the production volume of wafers in order to maintain or improve our results of operations.  Yield decreases can result in substantially higher unit costs, which could materially and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations and have done so in the past.  We cannot assure you that we will not suffer periodic yield problems, particularly during the early production of new products or introduction of new process technologies.  If any new yield problems were to arise or any existing yield problems were to continue, our financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

Our dependence on foreign semiconductor assembly and test operations contractors could lead to delays in or reductions of product shipments.

We do not assemble or test all of our integrated circuits or multi-chip modules.  Instead, we provide the integrated circuit die and, in some cases, packaging and other components to assembly and test vendors located primarily in Asia.  We are dependent upon a few foreign semiconductor assembly and test subcontractors.  If we are unable to obtain sufficient high quality and timely assembly or test service, if we experience delays in transferring our production between assembly or test locations or if means of transportation to these locations are interrupted, we would experience delays or reductions in product shipment, and/or reduced product yields, which could materially and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

We face intense competition, which could result in a decrease in our products’ prices and sales.

The markets for our products are intensely competitive and are characterized by rapid technological change.  We compete with U.S. and international semiconductor and integrated circuit (IC) manufacturers of all sizes, some of whom have significantly greater financial, technical, manufacturing and marketing resources than we do.  We currently face significant competition in our markets and expect that intense price and product competition will continue.  This competition has resulted in, and is expected to continue to result in, declining average selling prices for our products and increased challenges in maintaining or increasing market share.  We believe that the principal competitive factors for suppliers in our markets include, among others:

·  
time-to-market;
 
·  
timely new product innovation;
 
·  
product quality, reliability and performance;
 
·  
product price;
 
·  
features available in products;
 
·  
compliance with industry standards;
 
·  
strategic relationships with leading reference design providers and customers; and
 
·  
access to and protection of intellectual property.
 
    Certain of our competitors may be able to adapt more quickly than we can to new or emerging technologies and changes in customer requirements or may be able to devote greater resources to the development, promotion and sale of their products than we can.
 
    Current and potential competitors have established or may in the future establish, financial or strategic relationships among themselves or with customers, distributors, reference design providers or other third parties with whom we have or may in the future have relationships.  If our competitors are able to strengthen existing, or establish new, relationships with these third parties they may rapidly acquire market share at our expense.  We cannot assure you that we will be able to compete successfully against current and potential competitors.  Increased competition could result in pricing pressures, decreased gross margins and loss of market share and may materially and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

We will need to keep pace with rapid product and process development and technological changes as well as product cost reductions to be competitive.
 
    The markets for our products are characterized by rapid changes in both product and process technologies based on the continuous demand for product enhancements, higher levels of integration, decreased size and reduced power consumption.  Because the continuous evolution of these technologies and frequent introduction of new products and enhancements have generally resulted in short product life cycles for our products, we believe that our future success will depend, in part, upon our ability to continue to improve the efficiency of our products and process technologies and rapidly develop new products and process technologies.  The successful development of our products is highly complex and depends on numerous factors, including our ability to anticipate customer and market requirements and changes in technology and industry standards, our ability to differentiate our products from offerings of our competitors, and our ability to protect, develop or otherwise obtain adequate intellectual property for our new products.  If a competing technology emerges that is, or is perceived to be, superior to our existing technology and we are unable to develop and/or implement the new technology successfully or to develop and implement a competitive and economically acceptable alternative technology, our financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.  This implementation may require us to modify the manufacturing process for our products, design new products to more stringent standards, and redesign some existing products, which may prove difficult for us and result in sub-optimal manufacturing yields, delays in product deliveries and increased expenses. We will need to make substantial investments to develop these enhancements and technologies, and we cannot assure investors that we will have funds available for these investments or that these enhancements and technologies will be successful.

Our gallium arsenide semiconductors may cease to be competitive with silicon alternatives.
 
    Among our product portfolio, we manufacture and sell gallium arsenide semiconductor devices and components, principally PAs and switches, which tend to be more expensive than their silicon counterparts.  The cost differential is due to higher costs of raw materials for gallium arsenide and higher unit costs associated with smaller sized wafers and lower production volumes.  We expect the cost of producing gallium arsenide devices will continue for the foreseeable future to exceed the costs of producing their silicon counterparts.  In addition, silicon semiconductor technologies are widely-used process technologies for certain integrated circuits and these technologies continue to improve in performance.  Therefore, to remain competitive, we must offer gallium arsenide products that provide superior performance over their silicon-based counterparts.  If we do not continue to offer products that provide sufficiently superior performance to justify their higher cost, our financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.  We cannot assure you that there will continue to be products and markets that require the performance attributes of gallium arsenide solutions.

If we fail to sell a high volume of products, our operating results may be harmed.
 
    Because large portions of our manufacturing costs are relatively fixed, our manufacturing volumes are critical to our operating results.  If we fail to achieve acceptable manufacturing volumes or experience product shipment delays, our results of operations could be harmed.  During periods of decreased demand, our high fixed manufacturing costs negatively affect our results of operations.  We base our expense levels in part on our expectations of future orders and these expense levels are predominantly fixed in the short term.  If we receive fewer customer orders than expected or if our customers delay or cancel orders, we may not be able to reduce our manufacturing costs in the short term and our operating results may be harmed.

The short life cycles of some of our products may leave us with obsolete or excess inventories.
 
    The life cycles of some of our products depend heavily upon the life cycles of the end products into which our products are designed.  For example, we estimate that current life cycles for wireless handsets, and in turn our wireless products, are approximately 9 to 12 months.  Products with short life cycles require us to manage production and inventory levels closely.  We cannot assure you that obsolete or excess inventories, which may result from unanticipated changes in the estimated total demand for our products and/or the estimated life cycles of the end products into which our products are designed, will not result in significant charges that will negatively affect our operating profit and net income.

Our results of operations can vary significantly due to the cyclical nature of the semiconductor industry and our end markets.
 
    The semiconductor industry and our end markets have been cyclical, seasonal and subject to significant downturns.  In past years, the industry has experienced periods marked by market weaknesses that created lower order demand, production overcapacity, high inventory levels, and accelerated declines in average selling prices for our products.  These factors negatively affected our financial condition and results of operations during these periods and may negatively affect our financial condition and results of operations in the future.
 
    Our results of operations also may be subject to significant quarterly and annual fluctuations.  These fluctuations are due to a number of factors, many of which are beyond our control, including, among others:

·  
changes in end-user demand for the products manufactured and sold by our customers;
 
·  
the effects of competitive pricing pressures, including decreases in average selling prices of our products;
 
·  
industry production capacity levels and fluctuations in industry manufacturing yields;
 
·  
levels of inventory in our end markets;
 
·  
availability and cost of products from our suppliers;
 
·  
the gain or loss of significant customers;
 
·  
our ability to develop, introduce and market new products and technologies on a timely basis;
 
·  
new product and technology introductions by competitors;
 
·  
changes in the mix of products produced and sold;
 
·  
market acceptance of our products and our customers; and
 
·  
intellectual property disputes.
 
    As a result, we may experience substantial period-to-period fluctuations in future operating results.  Investors should not rely on our results of operations for any previous period as an indicator of what results may be for any future period.  Failure of our operating results to meet the expectations of analysts or investors could materially and adversely affect the price of our common stock.

Our products may experience significant declines in unit prices.
 
    In each of the markets where we compete, prices of established products tend to decline significantly over time and in some cases rapidly.  Accordingly, in order to remain competitive, we believe that we must continue to develop product enhancements and new technologies that will either slow the price declines of our products or reduce the cost of producing and delivering our products.  If we fail to do so, our financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

Our marketable securities’ liquidity and valuation could be affected by disruption in financial markets.
 
    We maintain significant investments in financial instruments including corporate debt obligations, auction rate securities and government-related obligations, which included $37.5 million carrying value of auction rate securities at December 31, 2007. These investments and their availability as liquid investments are supported by actively trading financial markets. Financial markets can temporarily or permanently have an imbalance of buyers and sellers that can impact valuations and liquidity. Auction rate markets were imbalanced in late 2007 and early 2008 and may continue to be imbalanced. Such imbalances could negatively impact the fair value of our investments, requiring a charge against income as occurred in 2007, our access to cash and the liquidity of our marketable securities. We can not assure you that our marketable securities could be sold for their carrying value or in our required time frame to support our intermediate term cashflow and liquidity needs.

We face a risk that capital needed for our business will not be available when we need it.
 
    In the future, we may need to access sources of financing to fund our growth.  Taking into consideration our cash balance as of December 31, 2007, including marketable securities, of $176.8 million, we believe that our existing sources of liquidity, together with cash expected to be generated from operations, will be sufficient to fund our research and development, capital expenditures, working capital requirements, interest payment obligations under our $38.0 million in outstanding convertible senior unsecured notes due October 2009 and other financing requirements for at least the next twelve months.
 
    However, there is no assurance that the capital required to fund these expenditures will be available in the future.  Conditions existing in the U.S. capital markets, as well as the then current condition of our company, will affect our ability to raise capital, as well as the terms of any financing.  We may not be able to raise enough capital to meet our capital needs on a timely basis or at all.  Failure to obtain capital when required could have a material adverse affect on us.
 
    In addition, any strategic investments and acquisitions that we may make to help us grow our business may require additional capital.  We cannot assure you that the capital required to fund these investments and acquisitions will be available in the future.

Our success depends on our ability to attract and retain qualified personnel.
 
    A small number of key executive officers manage our business.  Their departure could have a material adverse effect on our operations.  We believe that our future success will also depend in large part on our continued ability to attract and retain highly qualified manufacturing personnel, technical sales and marketing personnel, design and application engineers, as well as senior management.  We believe that there is, and will continue to be, intense competition for qualified personnel in the semiconductor industry as the emerging broadband wireless and wireline communications markets develop, and we cannot assure you that we will be successful in retaining our key personnel or in attracting and retaining highly qualified manufacturing personnel, technical sales and marketing personnel, design and application engineers, as well as senior management.  The loss of the services of one or more of our key employees or our inability to attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel could have a material effect on our ability to operate our business. We do not presently maintain key-man life insurance for any of our key executive officers.

We are subject to risks due to our international customer base and our subcontracting operations.
 
    Sales to customers located outside the United States and Canada (based on shipping addresses and not on the locations of ultimate end users) accounted for 63%, 62% and 71% of our net sales for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2006 and 2007, respectively.  We expect that international sales will continue to represent a significant portion of our net sales.  In addition, independent third parties located in Asia supply a substantial portion of the starting wafers and packaging components that we use in the production of gallium arsenide integrated circuits, and assemble and test nearly all of our products.
 
    Due to our reliance on international sales and on foreign suppliers, assemblers and test houses, we are subject to risks of conducting business outside of the United States, including primarily those arising from local economic and political conditions, international health epidemics, natural disasters, restrictive governmental actions (e.g., exchange controls, duties, etc.), limitation of protecting intellectual property rights in foreign jurisdictions and potential acts of terrorism.

We are subject to stringent environmental laws and regulations both domestically and abroad.
 
    We are subject to a variety of federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations governing the protection of the environment.  These environmental laws and regulations include those related to the use, storage, handling, discharge and disposal of toxic or otherwise hazardous materials used in or resulting from our manufacturing processes.  Failure to comply with environmental laws and regulations could subject us to substantial liability or force us to significantly change our manufacturing operations.  In addition, under some of these laws and regulations, we could be held financially responsible for remedial measures if our properties are contaminated, even if we did not cause the contamination.  Although we are aware of contamination resulting from historical third-party operations at one of our facilities, a prior owner of such facility has been performing, and paying for the costs associated with, remediation of this property pursuant to an agreement with the state environmental regulatory authority.  However, we cannot assure you that such prior owner will continue to do so or that we will not incur any material costs or liabilities associated with compliance with environmental laws in the future.

We may not be successful in protecting our intellectual property rights or in avoiding claims that we infringe on the intellectual property rights of others.
 
    Our success depends in part on our ability to obtain patents and copyrights.  Despite our efforts to protect our intellectual property, unauthorized third parties may violate our patents or copyrights.  In addition to intellectual property that we have patented and copyrighted, we also rely on trade secrets, technical know-how and other non-patented proprietary information relating to our product development and manufacturing activities, which we seek to protect, in part, by entering into confidentiality agreements with our collaborators and employees.  We cannot assure you that these agreements will not be breached, that we would have adequate remedies for any breach or that our trade secrets and proprietary know-how will not otherwise become known or independently discovered by others.
 
    We seek to operate without infringing on the intellectual property rights of third parties.  As is typical in the semiconductor industry, we have been notified, and may be notified in the future, that we may be infringing on certain patents and/or other intellectual property rights of other parties.  We cannot assure you that we will not be subject to litigation to defend our products or processes against claims of patent infringement or other intellectual property claims.  Any such litigation could result in substantial costs and diversion of our resources.  If we infringe on the intellectual property rights of others, we cannot assure investors that we would be able to obtain any required licenses on commercially reasonable terms and we may be required to pay substantial damages, including treble damages, and cease production of our work product or use of one or more manufacturing processes.  Even if we are ultimately successful, patent litigation can be time consuming, disruptive to management and expensive.  If any of the foregoing were to occur, our financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

We may pursue selective acquisitions and alliances and the management and integration of additional operations could be expensive and could divert management time and acquisitions may dilute the ownership of our stockholders.
 
    Our ability to complete acquisitions or alliances is dependent upon, and may be limited to, the availability of suitable candidates and capital.  In addition, acquisitions and alliances involve risks that could materially adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations, including the management time that may be diverted from operations in order to pursue and complete such transactions and difficulties in integrating and managing the additional operations and personnel of acquired companies.  We cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain the capital necessary to consummate acquisitions or alliances on satisfactory terms, if at all.  Further, any businesses that we acquire will likely have their own capital needs, which may be significant, which we could be called upon to satisfy independent of the acquisition price.  Future acquisitions or alliances could result in additional debt, costs and contingent liabilities, all of which could materially adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.  Any additional debt could subject us to substantial and burdensome covenants.  The growth that may result from future acquisitions or alliances may place significant strains on our resources, systems and management.  If we are unable to effectively manage such growth by implementing systems, expanding our infrastructure and hiring, training and managing employees, our financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.  In addition, if we issue additional shares of our common stock in order to acquire another business, our stockholders’ interest in us, or the combined company, could be materially diluted.

We have had significant volatility in our stock price and it may fluctuate in the future.  Therefore, you may be unable to sell shares of our common stock at or above the price you paid for such shares.
 
    The trading price of our common stock has and may continue to fluctuate significantly.  Such fluctuations may be influenced by many factors, including:

·  
our operating results and prospects;
 
·  
the operating results and prospects of our major customers;
 
·  
announcements by our competitors;
 
·  
the depth and liquidity of the market for our common stock;
 
·  
investor perception of us and the industry in which we operate;
 
·  
changes in our earnings estimates or buy/sell recommendations by analysts covering our stock;
 
·  
general financial and other market conditions; and
 
·  
domestic and international economic conditions.
 
    Public stock markets have experienced extreme price and trading volume volatility, particularly in the technology sectors of the market.  This volatility significantly affected and may in the future affect the market prices of securities of many technology companies for reasons frequently unrelated to or disproportionately impacted by the operating performance of these companies.  These broad market fluctuations may materially and adversely affect the market price of our common stock.
 
    In addition, fluctuations in our stock price and our price-to-earnings multiple may have made our stock attractive to momentum, hedge or day-trading investors who often shift funds into and out of stocks rapidly, exacerbating price fluctuations in either direction, particularly when viewed on a quarterly basis.

Certain provisions in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, our amended and restated bylaws and our stockholders’ rights agreement and of Delaware law could deter, delay or prevent a third party from acquiring us and that could deprive you of an opportunity to obtain a takeover premium for our common stock.
 
    Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, our amended and restated bylaws and Delaware law contain provisions that could have the effect of making it more difficult for a third party to acquire us, or of discouraging a third party from attempting to acquire control of us.  See “Description of Capital Stock.”  In addition, we have a stockholders’ rights agreement that under certain circumstances would significantly impair the ability of third parties to acquire control of us without prior approval of our board of directors.
 
    Together, our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, our amended and restated by-laws, certain provisions of Delaware law and our stockholders’ rights agreement may discourage transactions that otherwise could provide for the payment of a premium over prevailing market prices for our common stock and could also limit the price that investors may be willing to pay in the future for our common stock.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

OVERVIEW
 
    We are a leading provider of semiconductor solutions in the rapidly growing broadband wireless and wireline communications markets.  Our products include power amplifiers, tuner integrated circuits, active splitters, line amplifiers and other components, which can be sold individually or packaged as integrated radio frequency and front end modules.  We believe that we are uniquely positioned to capitalize on the rapidly-growing voice, data and video segments of the broadband wireless and wireline communications markets.  We offer 3G products that use the W-CDMA, EDGE and WEDGE standards, 3.5G products that use HSPA and EVDO standards, 4G products for WIMAX systems, WiFi products that use the 802.11 a/b/g and 802.11 n MIMO standards, CATV cable modem and set-top box products, CATV infrastructure products and FTTP products.
 
    Our business strategy focuses on developing RF front end solutions and partnering with industry-leading wireless chipset providers to incorporate our solutions into their reference designs.  Our integrated solutions enable our customers to improve RF performance, power efficiency, reliability, time-to-market and the integration of chip components into single packages, while reducing the size, weight and cost of their products.  We have established longstanding relationships with several of the industry-leading chipset suppliers and tier-one customers.  For example, our relationships with Qualcomm, Intel, Cisco and Motorola have enabled us to develop RF products used in 3G, 3.5G, 4G WiMAX, WiFi and CATV products and to be the primary supplier with respect to such partners and customers.  Other leading chipset suppliers and tier-one customers with whom we are engaged include Beceem, Broadcom, HTC, Huawei, Kyocera, LG Electronics, Marvell, Murata, Novatel, NXP, Palm, RIM, Samsung, Sierra Wireless, Texas Instruments and ZTE.

    We continue to focus on leveraging our technological and manufacturing advantages to remain a leading supplier of semiconductor solutions for broadband wireless and wireline communications.  We believe our patented InGaP-plus technology, which combines the bipolar technology of a PA (HBT PA) with the surface device technology of an RF active switch (pHEMT) on the same die, provides us with a competitive advantage in the marketplace.  Additionally, we believe our InGaP-plus process and design technologies such as HELP provide a competitive advantage by enabling us to provide PAs that consume less battery power and extend talk time for products in the 3G, 3.5G and 4G markets.

    Our primary fab, a state-of-the-art six-inch diameter GaAs fab located at our corporate headquarters in Warren, New Jersey, has been operational since 1999.  The increased utilization of our fab’s manufacturing capacity has increased our gross margins, which has provided us with greater financial leverage.  We are actively exploring future sources of additional manufacturing capacity including the construction of a manufacturing facility in China, as well as pursuing relationships with foundries.  Unlike traditional CMOS silicon fabs that have short technology lifecycles and require frequent capital investments, GaAs fabs are more similar to analog fabs that have long lifecycles and do not become quickly outdated.  Our six-inch wafer fab allows us to produce more than twice the RF die per wafer compared with the four-inch wafer fabs still used by some of our competitors.
 
    We experienced net sales growth of approximately 20%, 60% and 39% during 2005, 2006 and 2007, respectively, as our Broadband and Wireless businesses benefited from unit growth, a better pricing environment and acceptance of new product developments with increased RF content and functionality. The sales growth and leverage of our fixed manufacturing expense base, led to gross margin increases and resulted in current year profitability.
 
    On April 2, 2007, we sold the majority of the operating assets of Telcom Devices Inc. (Telcom, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company) to GTRAN Camarillo, Inc. in exchange for $500 and effectively ceased Telcom’s operations. Accordingly, the financial results, position and cashflow of Telcom have been classified as discontinued operations in the accompanying financial statements for all periods presented.  On September 5, 2007, we purchased certain assets and assumed certain related obligations of the radio frequency group of Fairchild Semiconductor (RF group). The RF group staff of 23 accepted employment with the Company. In early 2007, we signed an agreement with KSND in China to jointly construct a wafer fabrication facility.
 
    We believe our markets are, and will continue to remain, competitive, which could result in continued quarterly volatility in our net sales. This competition has resulted in, and is expected over the long-term to continue to result in competitive or declining average selling prices for our products and increased challenges in maintaining or increasing market share.
 
    We have only one reportable segment. For financial information related to such segment and certain geographic areas, see Note 6 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES & SIGNIFICANT ESTIMATES

GENERAL
 
    We believe the following accounting policies are critical to our business operations and the understanding of our results of operations. Such accounting policies may require management to exercise a higher degree of judgment and make estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.

REVENUE RECOGNITION
 
    Revenue from product sales is recognized when the title, risk and rewards of product ownership are transferred to the customer, price and terms are fixed, no significant vendor obligation exists and collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. We sell to certain distributors who are granted rights of return and exchange and certain price protection. Revenue is appropriately reserved for the portion of shipments subject to return, exchange or price protection until such rights expire. We charge customers for the costs of certain contractually-committed inventories that remain at the end of a product's life. Such amounts are recognized as cancellation revenue when cash is received. The value of the inventory related to cancellation revenue may, in some instances, have been reserved during prior periods in accordance with our inventory obsolescence policy.

ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS
 
    We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from our customers' failure to make payments. If the financial condition of our customers were to erode, making them unable to make payments, additional allowances may be required.

WARRANTY COSTS
 
     We provide for potential warranty claims by recording a current charge to income. We estimate potential claims by examining historical returns and other information deemed critical and provide for an amount which we believe will cover future warranty obligations for products sold. The accrued liability for warranty costs is included in accrued liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
 
    Effective January 1, 2006, we account for stock-based compensation costs in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 123R Share Based Payment (FAS 123R), which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all stock-based payment awards made to our employees and directors. Under the fair value recognition provisions of FAS 123R, stock based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as expense over the requisite service period which in most cases is the vesting period. Determining the fair value of stock-based awards at the grant date requires considerable judgement, including estimating expected volatility, expected term and risk-free interest rate. Our expected volatility is a combination of both Company and peer company historical volatility. The expected term of the stock options is based on several factors including historical observations of employee exercise patterns and expectations of employee exercise behavior in the future giving consideration to the contractual terms of the stock-based awards. The risk free interest rate assumption is based on the yield at the time of grant of a U.S. Treasury security with an equivalent remaining term. If factors change and we employ different assumptions, stock-based compensation expense may differ significantly from what we have recorded in the past.

MARKETABLE SECURITIES

    Available-for-sale securities are stated at fair value, as determined by quoted market prices, or as needed, broker-dealer valuation models, with unrealized gains and losses reported in other accumulated comprehensive income or loss. Unrealized losses are reviewed by management and those considered other than temporary are recorded as a charge to income.

INVENTORY
 
    Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market ("LCM"), using the first-in, first-out method. In addition to LCM limitations, we reserve against inventory items for estimated obsolescence or unmarketable inventory. Our reserve for excess and obsolete inventory is primarily based upon forecasted short-term demand for the product and any change to the reserve arising from forecast revisions is reflected in cost of sales in the period the revision is made.

LONG-LIVED ASSETS
 
    Long-lived assets include fixed assets, goodwill and other intangible assets. We regularly review these assets for indicators of impairment and assess the carrying value of the assets against market values. When an impairment exists, we record an expense to the extent that the carrying value exceeds fair market value.

    Goodwill and intangibles impairment
    We have intangible assets related to goodwill and other acquired intangibles. Significant judgements are involved in the determination of the estimated useful lives for our other intangibles and whether the goodwill or other intangible assets are impaired. In assessing the recoverability of goodwill and other intangibles, we must make assumptions regarding estimated future cash flows and other factors to determine the fair value of the respective assets.

    Impairment of long-lived assets
    We record impairment losses on long-lived assets used in operations when events and circumstances indicate that the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by these assets is less than the carrying amounts of those assets. Long-lived assets held for sale are reported at the lower of cost or fair value less costs to sell. Management considers sensitivities to capacity, utilization and technological developments in making its assumptions.

DEFERRED TAXES
 
    We record a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that some portion of the amount may not be realized. During 2001, we determined that it was no longer more likely than not that we would be able to realize all or part of our net deferred tax asset in the future, and an adjustment to provide a valuation allowance against the deferred tax asset was charged to income. We continue to maintain a full valuation allowance on our deferred tax assets.
 
    While we have considered future taxable income and ongoing prudent and feasible tax planning strategies in assessing the need for the valuation allowance, in the event we were to determine that we would be able to realize our deferred tax assets in the future, an adjustment to the deferred tax asset would increase income in the period such determination was made.

2007 COMPARED TO 2006
 
    NET SALES. Net sales for the year ended December 31, 2007 increased 38.5% to $230.6 million, compared to net sales for the year ended December 31, 2006 of $166.4 million. The net sales improvement was primarily due to increased demand for wireless third generation technologies (or 3G) consisting of CDMA EVDO, EDGE, WEDGE, and W-CDMA power amplifiers used in wireless handsets and hand-held devices and increased demand for broadband products such as WLAN power amplifiers used in wireless personal computer access and RF integrated circuits used in cable and broadband applications.
 
    Specifically, net sales for the year ended December 31, 2007 for the Company’s wireless products increased 41.4% to $129.0 million compared to net sales for the year ended December 31, 2006 of $91.3 million.  The net sales improvement was primarily due to increased demand for power amplifiers for 3G applications of $54.1 million or 85.6%, which was partially offset by lower net sales in power amplifiers for GSM of $16.4 million or 62.3%, which resulted from the Company’s shift in market focus to 3G technologies.
 
    Specifically, net sales for the year ended December 31, 2007 for the Company’s broadband products increased to $101.5 million or 35.0% compared to net sales for the year ended December 31, 2006 of $75.2 million.   The net sales improvement was primarily due to increased demand for power amplifiers for WiFi applications of $18.7 million or 52.6% and integrated circuits used in cable and infrastructure applications of $7.6 million or 19.9%.   
 
    Geographically, net sales in Asia increased 67.4% to $153.4 million from $91.6 million in 2006.  The increase was primarily driven by the increased demand for our WLAN and 3G products.
 
    GROSS MARGIN. Gross margin for 2007 improved to 34.2% of net sales, compared with 30.2% of net sales in the prior year. The improvement in gross margin was primarily due to the product mix of 3G technologies and WiFi applications further supported by improved cost absorption generated through increased production volumes.
 
    RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT. Company sponsored research and development expenses increased 32.8% during 2007 to $46.5 million from $35.1 million during 2006.  The increase was primarily due to an expansion and focus in R&D efforts on new product development, which required increased staffing costs.   Additionally, on September 5, 2007 we purchased the RF group from Fairchild Semiconductor, which included the hiring a staff of 23 employees.  Non-cash stock based compensation expense accounted for an increase of $2.6 million in 2007 over 2006.
 
    SELLING AND ADMINISTRATIVE. Selling and administrative expenses increased 27.5% during 2007 to $30.2 million from $23.7 million in 2006. The increase was primarily due to increased sales and marketing efforts focused on addressing existing and potential market opportunities in 3G, WiFi and broadband.  Non-cash stock based compensation expense accounted for an increase of $2.9 million in 2007 over 2006.
 
    INTEREST INCOME. Interest income increased 47.9% to $8.0 million during 2007 from $5.4 million in 2006. The increase was primarily due to higher average funds invested as a result of our underwritten public offering of 8.6 million shares of common stock in March of 2007 (the “March 2007 Offering”) and higher interest rates.
 
    INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense decreased to $2.5 million in 2007 from $4.8 million in 2006. In 2007, interest expense arose from obligations under our 5% Convertible Senior Notes due in 2009 (“2009 Notes”) whereas in 2006 our 5% Convertible Senior Notes due in 2006 (“2006 Notes”) was also outstanding.  In November 2006, we repaid the remaining $46.7 million aggregate principal amount outstanding of our 2006 Notes.
 
    LOSS FROM DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS. Loss from discontinued operations was $1.0 million compared with $1.0 million in 2006. The loss from discontinued operations in 2007 included $0.5 million loss on the sale of Telcom upon its sale at the close of the first quarter of 2007.
 
    OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE).  Other expense was $0.7 million in 2007, for which, $1.0 million was recorded for an other than temporary decline in value on certain auction rate securities held by the Company.   This was partly offset by gains on foreign currency transactions.

2006 COMPARED TO 2005
 
    NET SALES. Net sales during 2006 increased 60.2% to $166.4 million, compared to $103.9 million for 2005. The net sales improvement was primarily due to new demand from the market’s evolution to third generation (EDGE, WEDGE and W-CDMA) PAs, an increase in demand for our traditional CDMA and GSM technologies used in wireless handsets and hand-held devices, and increased demand for broadband products such as WLAN PAs, used in wireless personal computer access and RFICs, used in infrastructure applications.
 
    Sales during 2006 of RFICs used for cellular and personal communication system applications increased 71.8% during 2006 to $91.3 million from $53.2 million in 2005. This increase in sales of integrated circuits for wireless applications for the year ended December 31, 2006 compared with 2005 was primarily due to increased demand for our 3G, CDMA and GSM PAs amounting to $23.3 million, $9.7 million and $5.8 million, respectively.
 
    Specifically, net sales of RFICs used for broadband applications increased 48.2% to $75.1 million in 2006 from $50.7 million in 2005. This increase in sales was primarily due to an increase in demand for infrastructure products and increased average selling prices for WLAN products accounting for increases in sales of $5.6 million and $17.4 million, respectively. Sales of WLAN PAs benefited from the market transition from 802.11b/g PAs to 802.11a/b/g PAs that have a higher selling price for the increased functionality.
 
    GROSS MARGIN. Gross margin for 2006 improved to 30.2% of net sales, compared with 20.9% of net sales in the prior year. The increase in gross margin from the prior year is the result of the increase in net sales and production volumes with the consequent absorption of fixed costs.
    
     RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT. Company sponsored research and development expenses increased 19.6% during 2006 to $35.1 million from $29.3 million during 2005 primarily due to accelerated customer demand for new product development, which led to increased staffing and costs in addition to increased stock-based compensation of $2.1 million.
 
    SELLING AND ADMINISTRATIVE. Selling and administrative expenses increased 15.5% during 2006 to $23.7 million from $20.5 million in 2005. The increase was primarily due to increased stock-based compensation of $2.3 million.
 
    RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER CHARGES. During 2005, we settled an exit obligation for certain redundant leasehold premises resulting in a savings of $0.1 million against a previously recorded restructuring charge.
      
    INTEREST INCOME. Interest income increased 120.6% to $5.4 million during 2006 from $2.5 million in 2005. The increase was primarily due to higher average funds invested as a result of our underwritten public offering of 10.4 million shares of common stock in March of 2006 (the “March 2006 Offering”) and higher interest rates.
 
    INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense decreased to $4.8 million in 2006 from $5.0 million in 2005. Interest expense arose from obligations under our 5% Convertible Senior Notes due in 2006 (“2006 Notes”) and our 5%Convertible Senior Notes due in 2009 (“2009 Notes”).  In November 2006, we repaid the remaining $46.7 million aggregate principal amount outstanding of our 2006 Notes.
 
    LOSS FROM DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS. Loss from discontinued operations was $1.0 million compared with $0.8 million in 2005. The loss increased primarily due to lower gross profit from a decrease in revenue from $4.4 million to $3.4 million.
     
LIQUIDITY AND SOURCES OF CAPITAL
 
    At December 31, 2007 we had $57.8 million of cash and cash equivalents on hand and $119.0 million in marketable securities. We had $38.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 2009 Notes outstanding as of December 31, 2007.
 
    Operations generated $16.8 million in cash during 2007. Investing activities used $84.0 million of cash during 2007, consisting principally of purchases of equipment of $32.5 million and net purchases of marketable securities of $49.6 million. Financing activities provided $111.3 million of cash in 2007, primarily consisting of proceeds received from the issuance of stock, principally from the March 2007 Offering as well as stock option exercises.

    At December 31, 2007, the Company had unconditional purchase obligations of approximately $20.3 million, of which $17.6 million relates to capital equipment purchase requirements primarily over the first half of 2008.  Such capital purchase requirements will serve to increase the installed equipment capacity of the Company's manufacturing operations in response to increases in customer demand for the Company's products. In early 2007, the Company signed an agreement with KSND in China to jointly construct a wafer fabrication facility. The agreement requires the Company to invest approximately $50.0 million over a ten-year period, inclusive of $16.7 million required by January 31, 2010, of which approximately $3.5 million has been funded as of December 31, 2007. In the event we decide unilaterally not to proceed with the agreement with KSND, our maximum obligation under the agreement with KSND is to pay KSND $16.7 million.

    We believe that our existing sources of capital, including our existing cash and marketable securities, will be adequate to satisfy operational needs and anticipated capital needs for at least the next twelve months. Our anticipated capital needs may include acquisitions of complimentary businesses or technologies, investments in other companies or repurchases of our outstanding debt or equity. Subject to liquidity considerations of our auction rate securities as discussed more fully in Item 7A, we may elect to finance all or part of our future capital requirements through additional equity or debt financing. There can be no assurance that such additional financing would be available on satisfactory terms. Our ability to pay principal and interest on our $38.0 million in outstanding convertible senior unsecured notes, which are due in October of 2009, and our other debt and to fund our planned capital expenditures depends on our future operating performance.

IMPACT OF RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
 
    In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (“FIN 48”), which clarifies the accounting and disclosure for uncertainty in tax positions, as defined. FIN 48 seeks to reduce the diversity in practice associated with certain aspects of the recognition and measurement related to accounting for income taxes. As of January 1, 2007, the Company adopted FIN 48 which did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
 
    In September 2006, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (FAS 157) which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. FAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company has not yet determined the impact FAS 157 may have on our results from operations or financial position.
    
    In February, 2007, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 159 “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities” (FAS 159), which permits entities to choose to measure many financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected are reported in earnings. FAS 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company has not yet determined the impact FAS 159 may have on our results of operations or financial position.

    In June 2007, the FASB’s Emerging Issues Task Force reached a consensus on EITF Issue No. 07-3, “Accounting for Nonrefundable Advance Payments for Goods or Services to Be Used in Future Research and Development Activities” (EITF 07-3) that would require nonrefundable advance payments made by the Company for future R&D activities to be capitalized and recognized as an expense as the goods or services are received by the Company. EITF 07-3 is effective with respect to new arrangements entered into beginning January 1, 2008. The Company has not yet determined the impact EITF 07-3 may have on its results of operations or financial position.
 
    In December 2007, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 141R, “Business Combinations,” (FAS 141R) which changes how business acquisitions are accounted.  FAS 141R requires the acquiring entity in a business combination to recognize all (and only) the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the transaction and establishes the acquisition-date fair value as the measurement objective for all assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination.  Certain provisions of this standard will, among other things, impact the determination of acquisition-date fair value of consideration paid in a business combination (including contingent consideration); exclude transaction costs from acquisition accounting; and change accounting practices for acquired contingencies, acquisition-related restructuring costs, in-process research and development, indemnification assets, and tax benefits.  FAS 141R is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008.  The Company has not yet determined the impact FAS 141R may have on its results of operations or financial position.
 
    In December 2007, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of ARB No. 51,” (FAS 160) which establishes new standards governing the accounting for and reporting of noncontrolling interests (NCIs) in partially owned consolidated subsidiaries and the loss of control of subsidiaries.  Certain provisions of this standard indicate, among other things, that NCIs (previously referred to as minority interests) be treated as a separate component of equity, not as a liability; that increases and decrease in the parent’s ownership interest that leave control intact be treated as equity transactions, rather than as step acquisitions or dilution gains or losses; and that losses of a partially owned consolidated subsidiary be allocated to the NCI even when such allocation might result in a deficit balance. This standard also requires changes to certain presentation and disclosure requirements. FAS 160 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. The provisions of the standard are to be applied to all NCIs prospectively, except for the presentation and disclosure requirements, which are to be applied retrospectively to all periods presented. The Company has not yet determined the impact FAS 160 may have on its results of operations or financial position.
     
ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
 
    We are exposed to changes in interest rates primarily from our investments in certain available-for-sale securities. Our available-for-sale securities consist primarily of fixed income investments, including corporate bonds, commercial paper and Federal, state, municipal, and government-sponsored enterprises securities. We continually monitor our exposure to changes in interest rates and the credit ratings of issuers with respect to our available-for-sale securities. Accordingly, we believe that the effects of changes in interest rates and the credit ratings of these issuers are limited and would not have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations. However, it is possible that we would be at risk if interest rates or the credit ratings of these issuers were to change in an unfavorable direction. The magnitude of any gain or loss would be a function of the difference between the fixed rate of the financial instrument and the market rate and our financial condition and results of operations could be materially affected.

    At December 31, 2007, we held marketable securities with an estimated fair value of $119.0 million. Our primary interest rate exposure results from changes in short-term interest rates. We do not purchase financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. All of our marketable securities are classified as available-for-sale securities. The following table provides information about our marketable securities at December 31, 2007:

Estimated Principal Amount and Weighted Average Stated Rate by Expected Maturity Value

    The stated rates of interest expressed in the above table may not approximate the actual yield of the securities which we currently hold since we have purchased some of our marketable securities at other than face value. Additionally, some of the securities represented in the above table may be called or redeemed, at the option of the issuer, prior to their expected due dates. If such early redemptions occur, we may reinvest the proceeds realized on such calls or redemptions in marketable securities with stated rates of interest or yields that are lower than those of our current holdings, which would affect both future cash interest streams and future earnings. In addition to investments in marketable securities, we invest some of our cash in money market funds in order to keep cash available to fund operations and to hold cash pending investments in marketable securities. Fluctuations in short term interest rates will affect the yield on monies invested in such money market funds. Such fluctuations can have an impact on our future cash interest streams and future earnings, but the impact of such fluctuations are not expected to be material.
 
    All of our investment securities are classified as available-for-sale and therefore reported on our balance sheet at market value. As of December 31, 2007, our short-term investments included $37.5 million of auction rate securities issued primarily by state and municipal authorities. Our auction rate securities are debt instruments with a long-term maturity and with an interest rate that is reset in short intervals through auctions. The recent conditions in the global credit markets have prevented some investors from liquidating their holdings of auction rate securities because the amount of securities submitted for sale has exceeded the amount of purchase orders for such securities. If there is insufficient demand for the securities at the time of an auction, the auction may not be completed and the interest rates may be reset to predetermined higher rates. When auctions for these securities fail, the investments may not be readily convertible to cash until a future auction of these investments is successful or they are redeemed or mature. If the credit ratings of the security issuers deteriorate and any decline in market value is determined to be other-than-temporary, we would be required to adjust the carrying value of the investment through an impairment charge. To date, we have not experienced any realized gains or losses on our investment portfolio but have recognized an other than temporary impairment approximating $1.0 million.
 
    In mid-February, 2008, we were informed that there was insufficient demand at auctions for certain of our auction rate securities. As a result, certain of these securities are currently not liquid and the interest rates on such securities have been reset to predetermined higher rates.  Insufficient demand for certain auction rate securities may continue.

    We may not be able to access cash by selling auction rate securities for which there is insufficient demand without the loss of principal until a future auction for these investments is successful, they are redeemed by their issuer or they mature. If we are unable to sell these securities in the market or they are not redeemed, then we may be required to hold them to maturity. We do not have a need to access these funds for operational purposes for the foreseeable future. We will continue to monitor and evaluate these investments on an ongoing basis for impairment or for a short term to a long term reclassification. Based on our ability to access our cash and other short-term investments, our expected operating cash flows, and our other sources of cash, we do not anticipate that the potential illiquidity of these investments will affect our ability to execute our current business plan.

    Our 2009 Notes are convertible and bear a fixed rate of interest of 5%. A change in interest rates on long-term debt is assumed to impact fair value but not earnings or cash flow because the interest rate is fixed. At December 31, 2007, the fair value of our outstanding convertible notes, estimated based upon dealer quotes, was approximately $89.5 million.

ANADIGICS, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE AMOUNTS)


1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
 
    ANADIGICS, Inc (the Company) is a provider of semiconductor solutions in the rapidly growing broadband wireless and wireline communications markets.  The Company’s products include power amplifiers (PAs), tuner integrated circuits, active splitters, line amplifiers and other components, which can be sold individually or packaged as integrated radio frequency (RF) and front end modules.  The Company offers third generation (3G) products that use the Wideband Code-Division Multiple Access (W-CDMA) and Enhanced Data Rates for Global System for Mobile Communication (GSM) Evolution (EDGE) standards, beyond third generation (3.5G) products that use the High Speed Down Line Packet Access (HSDPA) and High Speed Uplink Line Packet Access (HSUPA) standards, fourth generation (4G) products for Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMAX) and Wireless Broadband (WiBRO) systems, Wireless Fidelity (WiFi) products that use the 802.11 a/b/g and 802.11 n (draft-n, Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO)) standards, cable television (CATV) set-top box products, CATV infrastructure products and Fiber-To-The-Premises (FTTP) products.  The Company’s integrated solutions enable its customers to improve RF performance, power efficiency, reliability, time-to-market and the integration of chip components into single packages, while reducing the size, weight and cost of their products.

    The Company designs, develops and manufactures RF integrated circuits (RFICs) primarily using Gallium Arsenide (GaAs) compound semiconductor substrates with various process technologies, Metal Semiconductor Field Effect Transistors (MESFET), Pseudomorphic High Electron Mobility Transistors (pHEMT), and Heterojunction Bipolar Transistors (HBT). The Company’s proprietary technology, which utilizes InGaP-plusTM, combines InGaP HBT and pHEMT processes on a single substrate, enabling it to integrate the PA function and the RF active switch function on the same die. The Company fabricates substantially all of its ICs in its six-inch diameter GaAs wafer fabrication facility.

    The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of ANADIGICS, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
    As more fully discussed in Note 2 below, the Company sold the majority of the operating assets of Telcom Devices Inc, (Telcom, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company) on April 2, 2007 and effectively ceased Telcom’s operations. Accordingly, the financial results, position and cashflow of Telcom have been classified as discontinued operations in the accompanying financial statements for all periods presented.

USE OF ESTIMATES

    The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates that affect the financial statements include, but are not limited to: recoverability of inventories, stock-based compensation, reserves for distributor arrangements and returns, valuation of certain marketable securities, useful lives and amortization periods and recoverability of long-lived assets.
 
CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK
 
    The Company grants trade credit to its customers, who are primarily foreign manufacturers of wireless communication devices, cable and broadcast television receivers and fiber optic communication devices. The Company performs periodic credit evaluations of its customers and generally does not require collateral. Sales and accounts receivable from customers are denominated in U.S. dollars. The Company has not experienced significant losses related to receivables from these individual customers.
 
    Net sales to individual customers and their affiliates who accounted for 10% or more of the Company’s total net sales and corresponding end application information are as follows:

    Accounts receivable at December 31, 2006 and 2007 from the greater than 10% customers accounted for 31% and 78% of total accounts receivable, respectively.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

    Revenue from product sales is recognized when the title, risk and rewards of product ownership are transferred to the customer, price and terms are fixed, no significant vendor obligation exists and collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. The Company sells to certain distributors who are granted rights of return and exchange and certain price protection. Revenue is appropriately reserved for the portion of shipments subject to return, exchange or price protection until such rights expire. The Company charges customers for the costs of certain contractually-committed inventories that remain at the end of a product's life. Such amounts are recognized as cancellation revenue when cash is received. The value of the inventory related to cancellation revenue may, in some instances, have been reserved during prior periods in accordance with the Company’s inventory obsolescence policy. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from customers' failure to make payments.
 
WARRANTY COSTS
 
    The Company provides, by a current charge to income, an amount it estimates, by examining historical returns and other information it deems critical, will be needed to cover future warranty obligations for products sold during the year. The accrued liability for warranty costs is included in accrued liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets.

PLANT AND EQUIPMENT
 
    Plant and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation of plant, furniture and equipment has been provided on the straight-line method over 3-5 years. During 2007, the Company began depreciating certain new wafer fabrication equipment over a seven year useful life. Leasehold improvements are amortized and included in depreciation over the useful life of the leasehold or the life of the lease, whichever is shorter.

    The cost of equipment acquired under capital leases was $9,806 and $7,751 at December 31, 2006 and 2007, respectively, and accumulated amortization was $8,072 and $7,734 at December 31, 2006 and 2007, respectively. Equipment acquired under a capital lease is amortized and included in depreciation over the useful life of the leased equipment or the life of the lease, whichever is shorter.

GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLES

    Goodwill, intellectual property, customer list, covenant-not-to compete and assembled workforce were recorded as part of the Company's acquisitions. Goodwill is not subject to amortization but is reviewed for potential impairment annually or upon the occurrence of an impairment indicator using a two-phase process. The first phase screens for impairment; while the second phase measures the impairment. Intellectual property, customer list, covenant and the assembled workforce have been amortized using the straight-line method over two to four year lives. The carrying amount of the Company’s intangibles are reviewed on a regular basis for indicators of an impairment. The Company determines if the carrying amount is impaired based on anticipated cash flows. In the event of impairment, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair value of the asset. For each of the reporting units, fair value is determined primarily using the anticipated cash flows, discounted at a rate commensurate with the associated risk.

IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS

    Long-lived assets used in operations are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets might not be recoverable. For long-lived assets to be held and used, the Company recognizes an impairment loss only if its carrying amount is not recoverable through its undiscounted cash flows and measures the impairment loss based on the difference between the carrying amount and fair value. Long-lived assets held for sale are reported at the lower of cost or fair value less costs to sell.

INCOME TAXES
 
    Deferred income taxes reflect the net effects of temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the income tax basis of such assets and liabilities. The Company maintains a full valuation allowance on its deferred tax assets. Accordingly, the Company has not recorded a benefit or provision for income taxes. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to the underpayment of income taxes in income tax expense. Upon adoption of FIN 48, the Company had no unrecognized tax benefits. No unrecognized tax benefits, interest or penalties were accrued at December 31, 2007. The Company’s U.S. federal net operating losses have occurred since 1998 and as such, tax years subject to potential tax examination could apply from that date because carrying-back net operating loss opens the relevant year to audit.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT COSTS
 
     The Company charges all research and development costs associated with the development of new products to expense when incurred.
 
CASH EQUIVALENTS
 
    The Company considers all highly liquid marketable securities with a maturity of three months or less when purchased as cash equivalents.
 
MARKETABLE SECURITIES
 
    Available for sale securities are stated at fair value, as determined by quoted market prices or as needed, broker-dealer valuation models, with unrealized gains and losses reported in other accumulated comprehensive income or loss. Unrealized losses are reviewed by management and those considered other than temporary are recorded as a charge to income. The cost of securities sold is based upon the specific identification method. The amortized cost of debt securities is adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discounts to maturity. Such amortization, realized gains and losses, interest and dividends are included in interest income. See Note 9 for a summary of marketable securities.

INVENTORY
 
     Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market ("LCM"), using the first-in, first-out method. In addition to LCM limitations, the Company reserves against inventory items for estimated obsolescence or unmarketable inventory. The reserve for excess and obsolete inventory is primarily based upon forecasted short-term demand for the product and any change to the reserve arising from forecast revisions is reflected in cost of sales in the period the revision is made.

DEFERRED RENT

     Aggregate rental expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease terms of operating leases that contain predetermined increases in rentals payable during the lease term.
 
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION

    The financial statements of subsidiaries outside of the United States are measured using the local currency as the functional currency. Assets and liabilities of these subsidiaries are translated at the rates of exchange at the balance sheet dates. The resultant translation adjustments are included in other accumulated comprehensive income or loss. Income and expense items are translated at the average monthly rates of exchange. Gains and losses from foreign currency transactions of these subsidiaries are included in the determination of net income or loss.
 
EARNINGS PER SHARE
 
    Basic and diluted earnings per share are calculated in accordance with FASB Statement No. 128, Earnings Per Share. Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if stock options and other commitments to issue common stock were exercised resulting in the issuance of common stock of the Company. Any dilution arising from the Company's outstanding stock options or shares potentially issuable upon conversion of the Convertible notes will not be included where their effect is anti-dilutive.
 
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

    The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties. The fair value of each of the following instruments approximates their carrying value because of the short maturity of these instruments: cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities. At December 31, 2006 and 2007, the fair value of the Company's outstanding Convertible senior notes, estimated based upon dealer quotes, were approximately $71,516 and $89,490, respectively compared to their carrying values of $38,000 and $38,000, respectively.  See Note 9 for a summary of marketable securities.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
 
    The Company has various stock-based compensation plans for employees and directors, which are described more fully in Note 12 “Employee Benefits Plans”. Effective January 1, 2006, the Company accounts for these plans under Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement No. 123R Share Based Payment (FAS 123R).

IMPACT OF RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
 
    In June 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (FIN 48), which clarifies the accounting and disclosure for uncertainty in tax positions, as defined. FIN 48 seeks to reduce the diversity in practice associated with certain aspects of the recognition and measurement related to accounting for income taxes. The Company adopted FIN 48 on January 1, 2007 which did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
 
    In September 2006, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (FAS 157) which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. FAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company has not yet determined the impact FAS 157 may have on its results of operations or financial position.

    In February, 2007, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 159 “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities” (FAS 159), which permits entities to choose to measure many financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected are reported in earnings. FAS 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company has not yet determined the impact FAS 159 may have on its results of operations or financial position.

    In June 2007, the FASB’s Emerging Issues Task Force reached a consensus on EITF Issue No. 07-3, “Accounting for Nonrefundable Advance Payments for Goods or Services to Be Used in Future Research and Development Activities” (EITF 07-3) that would require nonrefundable advance payments made by the Company for future R&D activities to be capitalized and recognized as an expense as the goods or services are received by the Company. EITF 07-3 is effective with respect to new arrangements entered into beginning January 1, 2008. The Company has not yet determined the impact EITF 07-3 may have on its results of operations or financial position.
 
    In December 2007, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 141R, “Business Combinations,” (FAS 141R) which changes how business acquisitions are accounted.  FAS 141R requires the acquiring entity in a business combination to recognize all (and only) the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the transaction and establishes the acquisition-date fair value as the measurement objective for all assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination.  Certain provisions of this standard will, among other things, impact the determination of acquisition-date fair value of consideration paid in a business combination (including contingent consideration); exclude transaction costs from acquisition accounting; and change accounting practices for acquired contingencies, acquisition-related restructuring costs, in-process research and development, indemnification assets, and tax benefits.  FAS 141R is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008.  The Company has not yet determined the impact FAS 141R may have on its results of operations or financial position.
 
    In December 2007, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of ARB No. 51,” (FAS 160) which establishes new standards governing the accounting for and reporting of noncontrolling interests (NCIs) in partially owned consolidated subsidiaries and the loss of control of subsidiaries.  Certain provisions of this standard indicate, among other things, that NCIs (previously referred to as minority interests) be treated as a separate component of equity, not as a liability; that increases and decrease in the parent’s ownership interest that leave control intact be treated as equity transactions, rather than as step acquisitions or dilution gains or losses; and that losses of a partially owned consolidated subsidiary be allocated to the NCI even when such allocation might result in a deficit balance. This standard also requires changes to certain presentation and disclosure requirements. FAS 160 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. The provisions of the standard are to be applied to all NCIs prospectively, except for the presentation and disclosure requirements, which are to be applied retrospectively to all periods presented. The Company has not yet determined the impact FAS 160 may have on its results of operations or financial position.

RECLASSIFICATIONS
 
    Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation. 


2.  DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
 
    On April 2, 2007, the Company sold the majority of Telcom’s operating assets to GTRAN Camarillo, Inc. in exchange for $500 and effectively ceased Telcom’s operations. As a consequence of the sale, the financial results, position and cashflow of Telcom have been classified as discontinued operations in the accompanying financial statements for all periods presented.

The assets acquired were principally equipment used in researching and developing RFICs for the broadband wireless communications markets. No products or manufacturing processes were included as part of the purchase. The RF group staff of 23 accepted employment with the Company.
 
    Included in the purchase were fixed assets with an estimated fair market value of $1,723, non-exclusive rights to certain intellectual property and assembled workforce valued at approximately $168 and $524, respectively.

6. SEGMENTS
 
    The Company operates in one segment. Its integrated circuits are primarily manufactured using common manufacturing facilities located in the same domestic geographic area. All operating expenses and assets of the Company are combined and reviewed by the chief operating decision maker on an enterprise-wide basis, resulting in no additional discrete financial information or reportable segment information.
 
    The Company classifies its revenues based upon the end application of the product in which its integrated circuits are used. Net sales by end application are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker and are as follows:

7. LONG-TERM DEBT
 
    On September 24, 2004, the Company issued $38,000 aggregate principal amount of 5% Convertible Senior Notes (2009 Notes) due October 15, 2009. The 2009 Notes are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at any time prior to their maturity, at an initial conversion rate, subject to adjustment, of 200 shares for each $1,000 principal amount, which is equivalent to a conversion price of $5.00 per share (7,600 shares contingently issuable). Pursuant to the indenture, dated as of September 24, 2004, between the Company and U.S. Bank Trust Association, as trustee, in the event of a “fundamental change” on or prior to July 15, 2009, the Company will pay a make whole premium upon the repurchase or conversion of the 2009 Notes. Subject to certain exceptions, the make whole premium will be 1% of the principal amount of the 2009 Notes, plus an additional premium based on the date such “fundamental change” becomes effective and the price paid per share of the Company’s common stock in the transaction constituting the “fundamental change”. Interest on the 2009 Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on April 15 and October 15 of each year.

    On November 27, 2001, the Company issued $100,000 aggregate principal amount of 5% Convertible Senior Notes (2006 Notes) due November 15, 2006.  The 2006 Notes were convertible into shares of common stock at a rate of 47.619 shares for each $1,000 principal amount (convertible at a price of $21.00 per share), subject to adjustment. During 2002, the Company repurchased and retired $33,300 aggregate principal amount of the 2006 Notes.  In addition, in the third quarter of 2004 and concurrent with the issuance of the 2009 Notes, the Company repurchased and retired $20,000 aggregate principal amount of the 2006 Notes for $19,758 in cash, inclusive of accrued interest of $358. The Company recognized a gain of $327 on the repurchase, after adjusting for the write-off of a proportionate share of unamortized offering costs. On November 15, 2006, the Company repaid the remaining $46,700 balance of the 2006 Notes obligation.
  
    Unamortized debt issuance costs of $1,273 and $807 at December 31, 2006 and 2007, respectively, consisting principally of underwriters' fees, were included in other assets and are being amortized over the life of the notes.

8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
 
    The Company leases manufacturing, warehousing and office space and manufacturing equipment under noncancelable operating leases that expire through 2016. Rent expense, net of sublease income was $2,447, $2,101 and $2,411 in 2005, 2006 and 2007, respectively. Sublease income was $270 and $24 in 2005 and 2006, respectively. As of December 31, 2007, there were no capital lease obligations outstanding.  The future minimum lease payments under the noncancelable operating leases are as follows:

    In addition to the above, at December 31, 2007, the Company had unconditional purchase obligations of approximately $20,327 of which $17,570 relates to capital equipment purchase requirements primarily over the first half of 2008.  Such capital purchase requirements will serve to increase the installed equipment capacity of the Company's manufacturing operations in response to anticipated increases in customer demand for the Company's products. In early 2007, the Company signed an agreement with KSND in China to jointly construct a wafer fabrication facility. The agreement requires the Company to invest approximately $50,000 over a ten-year period, inclusive of $16,700 required by January 31, 2010, of which approximately $3,500 has been funded as of December 31, 2007. In the event the Company decides unilaterally not to proceed with the agreement with KSND by January 31, 2010, its maximum obligation under the agreement with KSND would be $16,700 reduced by payments made to the date of cancellation.

    Classification of marketable securities as current or non-current is dependent upon management’s intended holding period, the security’s maturity date and liquidity considerations based on market conditions. If management intends to hold the securities for longer than one year as of the balance sheet date, they are classified as non-current. Since these marketable securities are classified as available-for-sale securities, changes in fair value will flow through other comprehensive income, with amounts reclassified out of other comprehensive income into earnings upon sale or “other-than-temporary” impairment.
 
    Auction rate securities are generally long-term debt instruments that provide liquidity through a Dutch auction process that resets the applicable interest rate at pre-determined calendar intervals, generally every 28 days. This mechanism generally allows existing investors to rollover their holdings and continue to own their respective securities or liquidate their holdings by selling their securities at par value. We generally invest in these securities for short periods of time as part of our cash management program. During the second half of 2007, certain auction rate debt and preferred securities failed to auction due to sell orders exceeding buy orders. The funds associated with failed auctions will not be accessible until a successful auction occurs or a buyer is found outside of the auction process. Based on broker-dealer valuation models, auction rate securities with an original value of approximately $5,625 had an estimated fair value of $4,668 as of December 31, 2007. It was determined that this decline was other than temporary and as result an impairment charge of $957 was recorded in other income (expense). These auction rate securities are classified as non-current marketable securities as of December 31, 2007.
 
    Management has the ability and intent, if necessary, to liquidate certain of its marketable securities in order to meet the Company’s liquidity needs in the next 12 months. Accordingly, certain securities with contractual maturities greater than one year from year-end have been classified as short-term. Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities because the issuers of the securities may have the right to prepay obligations without prepayment penalties. The amortized cost and estimated fair value of marketable debt securities at December 31, 2007 by contractual maturity, are shown below:

    In mid-February, 2008, we were informed that there was insufficient demand at auctions for certain of our auction rate securities. As a result, certain of the affected securities are currently not liquid and the interest rates have been reset to the predetermined higher rates.

12. INCOME TAXES
 
    The current and deferred components of income taxes for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2006 were zero. For the year ended December 31, 2007, the current Federal and state component of income taxes were $2,083 and $190, respectively which were fully offset by deferred tax movements including the valuation allowance.

    Deferred tax assets require a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax assets may not be realized. Whereas realization of the deferred tax assets is dependent upon the timing and magnitude of future taxable income prior to the expiration of the deferred tax attributes, management began recording a full valuation allowance in 2001. The amount of the deferred tax assets considered realizable, however, could change if estimates of future taxable income during the carry-forward period are changed.

    Significant components of the Company’s net deferred taxes as of December 31, 2006 and 2007 are as follows:

    As of December 31, 2007, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $320,499 for both federal and state tax reporting purposes. The federal carryforward will begin to expire in 2019, and the state carryforwards have begun to expire. A portion of net operating loss carryforwards and tax credit carryforwards may be subject to an annual limitation regarding their utilization against taxable income in future periods due to the “change of ownership” provisions of the Internal Revenue Code and similar state provisions. A portion of these carryforwards may expire before becoming available to reduce future income tax liabilities.
 
    At December 31, 2007, $25,149 of the deferred tax asset related to net operating loss carryforwards and an equivalent amount of deferred tax asset valuation allowance represented tax benefits associated with the exercise of non-qualified stock options and restricted stock deduction over book. Such benefit, when realized, will be credited to additional paid-in capital. Included within the Company’s net operating loss tax carryforwards at December 31, 2007, the Company has excess tax benefits, related to stock-based compensation that arose subsequent to the adoption of FAS 123R of $37,052 ($6,215 at December 31, 2006) which are not recorded as a deferred tax asset as the amounts would not have resulted in a reduction in current taxes payable until all other tax attributes currently available to the Company were utilized. The benefit of these deductions will be recorded to additional paid-in capital at the time the tax deduction results in a reduction of current taxes payable.
 
    The earnings associated with the Company’s investment in its foreign subsidiaries is considered to be permanently invested and no provision for U.S. federal and state income taxes on those earnings or translation adjustments have been provided.

13. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
 
    In March 2007, the Company completed an underwritten public offering of 8,625 shares of common stock at a price of $12.25 which generated net proceeds to the Company of $98,955. In March 2006, the Company completed an underwritten public offering of 10,446 shares of common stock at a price of $5.50 which generated net proceeds to the Company of $53,110.
    
    On December 17, 1998, the Company adopted a Shareholders’ Rights Agreement (the Agreement). Pursuant to the Agreement, as amended on November 30, 2000, rights were distributed as a dividend at the rate of one right for each share of ANADIGICS, Inc. common stock, par value $0.01 per share, held by stockholders of record as of the close of business on December 31, 1998. The rights will expire on December 17, 2008, unless earlier redeemed or exchanged. Under the Agreement, each right will entitle the registered holder to buy one one-thousandth of a share of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock at a price of $75.00 per one one-thousandth of a share, subject to adjustment in accordance with the Agreement. The rights will become exercisable only if a person or group of affiliated or associated persons acquires, or obtains the right to acquire, beneficial ownership of ANADIGICS, Inc. common stock or other voting securities that have 18% or more of the voting power of the outstanding shares of voting stock, or upon the commencement or announcement of an intention to make a tender offer or exchange offer, the consummation of which would result in such person or group acquiring, or obtaining the right to acquire, beneficial ownership of 18% or more of the voting power of ANADIGICS, Inc. common stock or other voting securities.

14. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
 
    Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the provisions of FAS 123R in accounting for share based payments to employees, having previously followed the provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion Number 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees”, as permitted by FAS 123.  The Company has adopted FAS 123R using the modified-prospective transition method, which requires the recognition of compensation expense over the remaining vesting period for all awards that remain unvested as of January 1, 2006. The Company adopted the alternative transition method provided in FASB Staff Position No. FAS 123R–3 “Transition Election Related to Accounting for the Tax Effects of Share-Based Payment Awards” for calculating the tax effects of stock-based compensation. The alternative transition method includes simplified methods to establish the beginning balance of the additional paid-in-capital pool (APIC pool) related to the tax effects of employee stock-based compensation, and to determine the subsequent impact on the APIC pool and consolidated statements of cash flows of the tax effects of employee stock-based compensation awards that are outstanding upon adoption of FAS 123R.

Equity Compensation Plans
The Company had 4 equity compensation plans under which equity securities are authorized for issuance to employees and/or directors:
§  
The 1995 Long-Term Incentive and Share Award Plan for Officers and Directors (terminated February 28, 2005)  (1995 Plan);
§  
The 1997 Long Term Incentive and Share Award Plan (1997 Plan);
§  
The 2005 Long Term Incentive and Share Award Plan (2005 Plan, collectively with the 1995 Plan and the 1997 Plan, the Plans); and
§  
The ESP Plan.
 
    Employees and outside directors have been granted restricted stock and options to purchase shares of common stock under stock option plans adopted in 1995, 1997 and 2005. An aggregate of 4,913, 5,100 and 6,450 shares of common stock were reserved for issuance under the 1995 Plan, the 1997 Plan and the 2005 Plan, respectively. The Plans provide for the granting of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted shares and other share based awards to eligible employees and directors, as defined in the Plans. Option grants have terms of ten years and become exercisable in varying amounts over periods of up to three years. To date, no stock appreciation rights have been granted under the Plans.
 
    In 1995, the Company adopted the ESP Plan under Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code. All full-time employees of ANADIGICS, Inc. and part-time employees, as defined in the ESP Plan, are eligible to participate in the ESP Plan. An aggregate of 2,694 shares of common stock were reserved for offering under the ESP Plan. Offerings are made at the commencement of each calendar year and must be purchased by the end of that calendar year. Pursuant to the terms of the ESP Plan, shares purchased and the applicable per share price were 328 ($3.13), 187 ($5.36) and 236 ($7.95), respectively for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2006 and 2007, respectively.
 
    Under FAS 123R, stock-based compensation expense arises from the amortization of restricted stock grants, unamortized stock option grants and from the ESP Plan whereas in 2005, only amortization of restricted stock grants was required. Effective with the adoption of FAS 123R, the Company uses the straight-line basis in calculating stock-based compensation expense.

Restricted Stock Awards
 
    Commencing in August 2004, the Company began granting restricted shares under the Plans. The value of the restricted stock awards are fixed upon the date of grant and amortized over the related vesting period of one to three years.  Restricted stock awards are subject to forfeiture if employment terminates prior to vesting. The restricted stock awards carry voting and dividend rights commencing upon grant but may not be traded or transferred prior to vesting.  Grant, vest and forfeit activity and related weighted average (WA) price per share for restricted stock and for stock options during the period from January 1, 2005 to December 31, 2007 is presented in tabular form below:

    On December 22, 2004, the Company authorized the immediate vesting of eligible employees’ unvested share options with an exercise price greater than $5.00 per share. Directors were not eligible. In total, 1,772 options with an average exercise price of $7.26 immediately vested and had an average remaining contractual life of 9.1 years. The unamortized fair value associated with these accelerated-vest shares in the amount of $2,654 amortized immediately. Had the accelerated-vest program not occurred, the related cost in the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2007 would have included $751 and $57, respectively. In addition to its employee-retention value, the Company’s decision to accelerate the vesting of these “out-of-the-money” options was based upon the accounting of such costs moving from disclosure-only in 2004 to being included in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations in 2005 based upon the Company’s expected adoption of FAS 123R prior to its required adoption date being deferred.   For the year ended December 31, 2005, $1,846 would have been included in the pro forma disclosure.

    In adopting FAS 123R on January 1, 2006, the Company evaluated the assumptions used in the Black Scholes model and modified its methodology for computing the expected volatility and expected term. Expected volatility was modified from being based solely on Company historical volatility to a combination of both Company and peer company historical volatility. The expected term of the stock options was modified from being based solely on historical observations of employee exercise patterns to beingalso combined with expectations of employee exercise behavior in the future giving consideration to the contractual terms of the stock-based awards. The risk free interest rate assumption has consistently been based on the yield at the time of grant of a U.S. Treasury security with an equivalent remaining term. The Company has never paid cash dividends and does not currently intend to pay cash dividends and has consistently assumed a 0% dividend yield.

    ANADIGICS, Inc. also sponsors an Employee Savings and Protection Plan under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code which is available to all full-time employees. Employees can make voluntary contributions up to limitations prescribed by the Internal Revenue Code. The Company matches 50% of employee contributions up to 6% of their gross pay. The Company recorded expense of $675, $746 and $885 for the years ended December 31, 2005, 2006 and 2007, respectively, relating to plan contributions.

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

    For information regarding the Company’s change in independent registered public accounting firm from J.H. Cohn LLP to Ernst & Young LLP during its fiscal year ended December 31, 2007, please refer to the Company’s current report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on June 7, 2007. The Company had no disagreements during its 2006 and 2007 fiscal years with its independent auditors regarding accounting or financial disclosure matters.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Conclusion Regarding the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

    Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, or CEO and Chief Financial Officer, or CFO, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2007. Based on that evaluation, our management, including our CEO and CFO, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported as specified within the SEC’s rules and forms.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

    Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our CEO and CFO, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework of Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on that evaluation, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2007.

    The effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007 has been audited by Ernst & Young LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report which is included below.
 
    There was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the Company’s last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Inherent Limitations of Controls


 
 

 

 
Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
ANADIGICS, Inc.


We have audited ANADIGICS, Inc.’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the COSO criteria). ANADIGICS, Inc.’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.

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

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

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.  Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, ANADIGICS, Inc.’s maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007, based on the COSO criteria.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet of ANADIGICS, Inc. as of December 31, 2007, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2007 of ANADIGICS Inc. and our report dated February 29, 2008 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.
