NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) – JULY 3, 2010

(AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE AMOUNTS)


1.    SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
 
    The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals and adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.  Operating results for the three and six month period ended July 3, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2010.
 
    The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2009 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.
 
    The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
    The Company has evaluated subsequent events and determined that there were no subsequent events to recognize or disclose in these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements.
 
IMPACT OF RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
 
    In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2010-06, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820)”.  This standard requires disclosure of the transfers in and out of Level 1 and 2 and a schedule for Level 3 that separately identifies purchases, sales, issuances and settlements and requires more detailed disclosures regarding valuation techniques and inputs.  The adoption of this standard effective January 1, 2010 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

INCOME TAXES
 
    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. No unrecognized tax benefits, interest or penalties were accrued at July 3, 2010. 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.

WARRANTY
 
    Based on the examination of historical returns and other information it deems critical, the Company estimates that a current charge to income will need to be provided in order to cover future warranty obligations for products sold during the year. The accrued liability for warranty costs is included in Accrued liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Warranty reserve movements in the six months ended July 3, 2010 included $686 in actual charges and $501 in provisions resulting in the balance of $809 at July 3, 2010.  Warranty reserve movements in the six months ended July 4, 2009 included $990 in actual charges and a $972 increase in the provision.

RECLASSIFICATIONS

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation.
 
2.    RESTRUCTURING AND IMPAIRMENT (RECOVERY) CHARGES

    During the second quarter of 2010, the Company sold its wafer fabrication building in Kunshan, China for net proceeds of $1,717, resulting in the partial recovery of a related impairment charge. During 2008, the Company had written-off the value of its unfinished wafer fabrication building following an evaluation of alternatives in light of the then current circumstances, including: surplus industry production capacity, reduced demand experienced by the Company as well as the broader macroeconomic environment. As a result of its analysis of projected discounted cashflows, the Company recorded a $12,957 impairment charge in 2008 related to the China wafer fabrication facility.
 
    During the fourth quarter of 2008 and first quarter of 2009, the Company implemented certain workforce reduction programs, which eliminated approximately 210 positions throughout the Company, resulting in charges aggregating $4,738 for severance and related benefits.

4.    FAIR VALUE AND MARKETABLE SECURITIES

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
 
    Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). Inputs used to measure fair value are classified in the following hierarchy:

Level 1
Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
   
Level 2
Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, or unadjusted quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability
   
Level 3
Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability

    The Company endeavors to utilize the best available information in measuring fair value. Financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The following table presents a summary of fair value information for available-for-sale securities as at December 31, 2009 and July 3, 2010 in accordance with ASC Topic 820:

(1)  
Difference between amortized cost basis and fair value represents gross unrealized gains.
(2)  
These available for sale debt securities have contractual maturities in excess of 10 years.
 
    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.

AUCTION RATE SECURITIES
 
    Auction rate securities (ARS) are generally long-term financial instruments that provided liquidity through a Dutch auction process that resets the applicable interest rate at pre-determined calendar intervals, generally every 28 days. The mechanism generally allowed existing investors to rollover their holdings while continuing to own their respective securities or liquidating their holdings by selling their securities at par value. The Company generally invested in these securities for short periods of time as part of its 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. In February 2008, liquidity issues in the global credit markets resulted in failures of the auction process for a broader range of ARS, including substantially all of the auction rate corporate, state and municipal debt and preferred equity securities the Company holds. The funds associated with the failed auctions will not be accessible until a successful auction occurs, a buyer is found outside of the auction process or an issuer redeems its security.
 
    At July 3, 2010, there was insufficient observable ARS market information available to determine the fair value of the Company’s investments in ARS. Given the complexity of ARS investments, the Company obtained the assistance of an independent valuation firm to assist management in assessing the Level 3 fair value of its ARS portfolio. The third party valuations developed to estimate the ARS fair value were determined using a combination of two calculations (1) a discounted cash flow model, where the expected cash flows of the ARS are discounted to the present using a yield that incorporates compensation for illiquidity, and (2) a market comparables method, where the ARS are valued based on indications, from the secondary market, of what discounts buyers demand when purchasing similar AR S. The valuations include numerous assumptions such as assessments of the underlying structure of each security, expected cash flows, discount rates, credit ratings, workout periods, and overall capital market liquidity.
 
    During 2008, a corporate debt ARS position with a face value of $4,000 was exchanged for the underlying 30 year notes due 2037. At July 3, 2010, the Company values this security on a Level 1 basis, with a fair value of $2,880.
 
    The Company considers it more likely than not that it will sell their marketable debt securities prior to a recovery in valuation.
 
    For the three and six months ended July 3, 2010, the table below provides a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances for each type of security valued using a Level 3 valuation.

    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 were convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at any time prior to their maturity, at an initial conversion rate of 200 shares for each $1,000 principal amount, which was equivalent to a conversion price of $5.00 per share (7,600 shares contingently issuable). Interest on the 2009 Notes was payable semi-annually in arrears on April 15 and October 15 of each year.  The 2009 Notes were repaid on the October 15, 2009 maturity date.


7.    STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

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 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESP Plan).
 
    Employees and outside directors have been granted restricted stock shares or units (collectively, 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 16,050 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 stock 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 connection with the hiring of the Company’ ;s President and Chief Executive Officer on February 1, 2009, an inducement award of 700 stock options was granted to him outside of 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 6,694 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 729 and $1.39, respectively for the year ended December 31, 2009.

Restricted Stock and Stock Option Awards
 
    Commencing in August 2004, the Company began granting restricted stock shares under the Plans and in July 2008 began granting restricted stock units (collectively restricted stock). The value of restricted stock grants are fixed upon the date of grant and amortized over the related vesting period of six months to three years.  Restricted stock is subject to forfeiture if employment terminates prior to vesting.  The Company estimates that approximately 2.5% of its restricted stock and stock option awards are forfeited annually (exclusive of LTI’s, as described below).  The restricted stock shares carry voting and certain forfeitable dividend rights commencing upon grant, whereas restricted stock units do not. Neither restricted stock shares nor restricted sto ck units may 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, 2009 to July 3, 2010 is presented in tabular form below:

    In 2008, 357 restricted stock shares were granted pursuant to long-term incentive awards (LTI) issued to management contingent upon the Company’s performance using multi-year adjusted earnings per share and revenue targets measured over a three-year period ending December 31, 2010.  The number of shares issuable pursuant to the LTI award can vary upon actual performance to such targets and range from 50% to 150% of the base share award. In 2008, 27 shares of the 357 LTI shares were released upon the separation of our former chief executive officer.  As of July 3, 2010, a total of 174 LTI shares have forfeited since their initial grant date. Based upon the performance of the Company to July 3, 2010, no further stock-based compensation for LTI has been expensed and the related unrecognized stock-based compensation has been excluded from the table below.

Valuation Method for ESP Plan and Stock Option Awards
 
    The fair value of these equity awards was estimated at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model. The weighted average assumptions and fair values for stock based compensation grants used for the six month periods ended July 3, 2010 and July 4, 2009 were:

   
Six months ended

    85 %     99 %
Average expected term (in years)
    5.0       5.0  
Expected dividend yield
    0.0 %     0.0 %
Weighted average fair value of options granted
  $ 3.21     $ 1.50  
                 
ESP Plan:

    1.0       1.0  
Expected dividend yield
    0.0 %     0.0 %
Weighted average fair value of purchase option
  $ 1.44     $ 0.82  
 
    For equity awards with expected terms of greater than one year, the assumption for expected volatility is based on a combination of implied and historical volatility, whereas for equity awards with an expected term of one year or less, the assumption is solely based on the Company’s historical volatility.
 
8.    LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
 
    On or about November 11, 2008, plaintiff Charlie Attias filed a putative securities class action lawsuit in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey, captioned Charlie Attias v. Anadigics, Inc., et al., No. 3:08-cv-05572, and, on or about November 21, 2008, plaintiff Paul Kuznetz filed a related class action lawsuit in the same court, captioned Paul J. Kuznetz v. Anadigics, Inc., et al., No. 3:08-cv-05750 (jointly, the "Class Actions").  The Complaints in the Class Actions, which were consolidated under the caption In re Anadigics, Inc. Securities Litigation, No. 3:08-cv-05572, by an Order of the District Court dated November 24, 2008, seek unspecified damages for alleged violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as well as Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder, in connection with alleged misrepresentations and omissions in connection with, among other things, Anadigics's manufacturing capabilities and the demand for its products.  On October 23, 2009, plaintiffs filed a Consolidated Amended Class Action Complaint, which names the Company, a current officer and a former officer-director, and alleges a proposed class period that runs from July 24, 2007 through August 7, 2008.  On December 23, 2009, defendants filed a motion to dismiss the Amended Complaint.  As of March 30, 2010, that motion had been fully briefed by the parties.
 
    On or about January 14, 2009, a shareholder's derivative lawsuit, captioned Sicari v. Anadigics, Inc., et al., No. SOM-L-88-09, was filed in the Superior Court of New Jersey, and, on or about February 2, 2009, a related shareholder's derivative lawsuit, captioned Moradzadeh v. Anadigics, Inc., et al., No. SOM-L-198-09, was filed in the same court (jointly, the "Derivative Lawsuits").  The Derivative Lawsuits seek unspecified damages for alleged state law claims against certain of the Company's current and former directors arising out of the matters at issue in the Class Actions.  By Order dated March 6, 2009, the New Jersey Superior Court consolidated the Deriva tive Lawsuits under the caption In re Anadigics, Inc. Derivative Litigation, No. SOM-L-88-09.  By Order dated March 27, 2009, the court stayed the Derivative Lawsuits pending disposition of the defendants' motion to dismiss the Amended Complaint in the Class Actions.
 
    Because the Class Actions and the Derivative Lawsuits, which are in a preliminary stage, do not specify alleged monetary damages, the Company is unable to reasonably estimate a possible range of loss, if any, to the Company in connection therewith.
 
    The Company is also a party to ordinary course litigation arising out of the operation of our business. The Company believes that the ultimate resolution of such ordinary course litigation should not have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial condition or results of operations.




 
 

 

ANADIGICS, Inc.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

OVERVIEW
 
    ANADIGICS, Inc. (“we” or the “Company”) is a leading provider of semiconductor solutions in the 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 well-positioned to capitalize on the high growth 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) standar ds 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)and Long Term Evolution (LTE), 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 for our customers and partnering with industry-leading wireless and wireline 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 continue to focus on leveraging our technological advantages to remain a leading supplier of innovative 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. For instance, we believe technologies such as High Efficiency at Low Power (HELP) power amplifiers provide our customers a competitive advantage by enabling their 3G, 3.5G and 4G devices to consume less battery power and deliver longer talk time than comparable products in their markets.
 
    We experienced declines in quarterly revenue during 2008 through the first quarter of 2009, which resulted from a combination of a reduction in market share with certain customers and an industry slowdown due to the macroeconomic environment. During the fourth quarter of 2008 and first quarter of 2009, we reduced our workforce by approximately 100 and 110 positions, respectively. Commencing in the second quarter of 2009, we have experienced sequential growth in quarterly revenues.
 
    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.

NET SALES. Net sales increased 64.2% during the second quarter of 2010 to $51.7 million from $31.5 million in the second quarter of 2009.  For the six months ended July 3, 2010, net sales were $95.2 million, a 53.6% increase from net sales of $62.0 million for the six months ended July 4, 2009.
 
    Sales of integrated circuits for wireless applications increased 71.5% during the second quarter of 2010 to $38.3 million from $22.3 million in the second quarter of 2009.  For the six months ended July 3, 2010, net sales of integrated circuits for wireless applications increased 57.9% to $68.6 million from $43.5 million for the six months ended July 4, 2009. The increase in sales in the three and six month periods was primarily due to increased demand in W-CDMA cellular device markets.
 
    Sales of integrated circuits for broadband applications increased 46.5% during the second quarter of 2010 to $13.4 million from $9.2 million in the second quarter of 2009. For the six months ended July 3, 2010, net sales of integrated circuits for broadband applications increased 43.6% to $26.6 million from $18.5 million for the six months ended July 4, 2009. This increase in sales in the three and six month periods was primarily due to increased demand for CATV and WiMax products, marginally offset by declines in WiFi PAs shipped into the PC Notebook market.
 
    GROSS MARGIN. Gross margin during the second quarter of 2010 increased to 34.5% of net sales from 8.8% of net sales in the second quarter of 2009.  For the six months ended July 3, 2010, gross margin increased to 32.9% from 6.5% for the six months ended July 4, 2009.  The increase in gross margin was primarily due to increased product shipments and wafer production, and fixed production costs decreasing as a percent of higher revenues. Fixed production costs include, but are not limited to depreciation, maintenance and operations’ support functions.
 
    RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT. Company-sponsored research and development (R&D) expenses increased 17.7% during the second quarter of 2010 to $12.2 million from $10.4 million during the second quarter of 2009. Company sponsored research and development expenses for the six month period ended July 3, 2010 increased 9.1% to $24.0 million from $22.0 million during the six month period ended July 4, 2009.  The increases were primarily due to higher material spending, personnel and support costs for our accelerated R&D product and process development efforts.
 
    SELLING AND ADMINISTRATIVE. Selling and administrative expenses increased 8.7% to $6.9 million during the second quarter of 2010 from $6.3 million during the second quarter of 2009.  Selling and administrative expenses for the six month period ended July 3, 2010 increased 0.8% to $13.9 million from $13.8 million during the six month period ended July 4, 2009.   The increase in the second quarter was driven by increased investment in our sales effort.
 
    RESTRUCTURING AND IMPAIRMENT (RECOVERY) CHARGES.  During the second quarter of 2010, we sold the wafer fabrication building in Kunshan, China which had been fully written-off in 2008. The sale resulted in a net recovery of $1.7 million. During the first quarter of 2009 we implemented workforce reductions, which eliminated approximately 110 positions, resulting in a restructuring charge of $2.6 million principally for severance and related benefits.
 
    INTEREST INCOME. Interest income decreased 67.6% to $0.1 million during the second quarter of 2010 from $0.3 million during the second quarter of 2009.  For the six months ended July 3, 2010, interest income decreased 78.0% to $0.2 million from $0.8 million in the six month period ended July 4, 2009. The decreases were due to lower interest rates and compounded by lower average funds invested.
 
    INTEREST EXPENSE.  Interest expense decreased 92.7% when compared to $0.6 million during the second quarter of 2009. For the six months ended July 3, 2010, interest expense decreased 92.0% to $0.1 million from $1.2 million in the six month period ended July 4, 2009. The decreases principally related to the repayment of our $38.0 million outstanding balance of our 5% Convertible Senior Notes due in October 2009.
 
    OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE), NET. Other income was $0.3 million during the second quarter of 2010, representing recoveries on redemptions of certain auction rate securities. For the six months ended July 3, 2010, other income of $0.4 million compares to $1.5 million of other expense in the six month period ended July 4, 2009. Other expense in the six month period ended July 4, 2009 was comprised of other-than-temporary declines in value on certain auction rate securities and a corporate debt security held by the Company.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
 
    As of July 3, 2010, we had $83.0 million in cash and cash equivalents and $8.8 million in marketable securities.
 
    Operating activities used $0.7 million in cash during the six month period ended July 3, 2010, primarily as a result of our operating results adjusted for non-cash expenses offset by $8.4 million of cash used to fund working capital. Investing activities, consisting of net proceeds received from the sale of a wafer fabrication building in Kunshan, China of $1.7 million, net proceeds received from the sale of marketable securities of $1.1 million, and cash paid for fixed assets of $2.6 million, provided $0.2 million of cash during the six month period ended July 3, 2010.  Financing activities provided $0.4 million of cash, consisting of proceeds received from stock option exercises.
 
    We had unconditional purchase obligations at July 3, 2010 of approximately $3.6 million.
 
    Within our $8.8 million in marketable securities at July 3, 2010, we held a total of $5.9 million of auction rate securities (ARS) and $2.9 million as a corporate debt security, which was originally purchased as an ARS prior to its exchange for the underlying 30 year notes due 2037. ARS are generally financial instruments of long-term duration with interest rates that are reset in short intervals through auctions. During the second half of 2007, certain auction rate debt and preferred securities failed to auction due to sell orders exceeding buy orders. In February 2008, liquidity issues in the global credit markets resulted in failures of the auction process for a broader range of ARS, including substantially all of the auction rate corporate, state and municipal debt and preferred equity sec urities we hold. When there is insufficient demand for the securities at the time of an auction and the auction is not completed, the interest rates reset to predetermined higher rates (default rates). While certain issuers have redeemed certain of their ARS since 2008, the market remains constrained by illiquidity and the lack of free trading. The funds associated with the remaining failed auctions will not be accessible until a successful auction occurs, a buyer is found outside of the auction process or an issuer redeems its security. If the credit ratings of the security issuers deteriorate and any decline in market value below our amortized cost basis is determined to be other-than-temporary, we would be required to adjust the carrying value of the investment through an additional impairment charge. To date, we have not realized any losses on ARS held by the Company or the notes received in exchange for an ARS, but have recognized other-than-temporary impairments of $8.9 million.  For the six months ended July 3, 2010, fair market values of certain of our ARS, when combined with the fair market values of our corporate debt security, increased by $0.1 million, which was recorded to other comprehensive income.
 
    We anticipate selling these impaired debt securities prior to a recovery in valuation. We will continue to monitor and evaluate these investments for impairment and for short term classification purposes. We may not be able to access cash by selling the aforementioned debt or preferred securities without the loss of principal until a buyer is located, a future auction for these investments is successful, they are redeemed by their issuers 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 or in perpetuity for the preferred ARS. Based on our ability to access our cash, our expected operating cash flows, and our other sources of cash, we do not anticipate that the potential illiquidity of these invest ments will affect our ability to execute our current business plan.
 
    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. We may elect to finance all or part of our future capital requirements through additional equity or debt financing.

IMPACT OF RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
 
    In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2010-06, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820)”.  This standard requires disclosure of the transfers in and out of Level 1 and 2 and a schedule for Level 3 that separately identifies purchases, sales, issuances and settlements and requires more detailed disclosures regarding valuation techniques and inputs.  The adoption of this standard effective January 1, 2010 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
 
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

    This quarterly report on Form 10-Q contains projections and other forward-looking statements (as that term is defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended).  These projections and forward-looking statements reflect the Company’s current views with respect to future events and financial performance and can generally be identified as such because the context of the statement will include words such as “believe”, “anticipate”, “expect”, or words of similar import. Similarly, statements that describe our future plans, objectives, estimates or goals are forward-looking statements.  No assurances can be given, however, that these events will occur or that these projections will be achieved, an d actual results and developments could differ materially from those projected as a result of certain factors.  Important factors that could cause actual results and developments to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such projections and forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the following risks which are described in greater detail in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K referred to below: (i) our history of recent losses and the possibility that we may continue to incur losses; (ii) unfavorable economic conditions; (iii) our results of operations can vary significantly due to the cyclical nature of the semiconductor industry and our end markets; (iv) our operating results may be harmed if we fail to sell a high volume of products; (v) our dependence on a small number of customers; (vi) the existence of intense competition in the markets for our products, which could result in a decrease in our products’ prices and sales; (vii) cost redu ction measures may again be required and could be inadequate or not realize their anticipated savings; (viii) we may face failures in our manufacturing processes or processes of our vendors; (ix) our dependence on foreign semiconductor component, assembly and test operations contractors could lead to delays in product shipments; (x) sources for certain components, materials and equipment are limited, which could result in delays or reductions in product shipments; (xi) the variability of our manufacturing yields may affect our gross margins; (xii) our products have experienced rapidly declining unit prices; (xiii) the short life cycles of some of our products may leave us with obsolete or excess inventories; (xiv) our need to keep pace with rapid product and process development and technological changes as well as product cost reductions to be competitive; (xv) any failure to perform or meet customer requirements; (xvi) our gallium arsenide semiconductors may cease to be competitive with silicon alternatives ; (xvii) capital required for our business may not be available when we need it; (xviii) our marketable securities’ liquidity and valuation could be affected by disruption in financial markets; (xix) our success depends on our ability to attract and retain qualified personnel; (xx) risks due to our international customer base and our subcontracting operations; (xxi) stringent environmental laws and regulations both domestically and abroad; (xxii) any failure to protect our intellectual property rights or avoid claims that we have infringed on the intellectual property rights of others; (xxiii) any pursuit of selective acquisitions and alliances which dilute the ownership of our current shareholders and the management and integration of additional operations which may be expensive and divert management time; (xxiv) we have had significant volatility in our stock price and it may fluctuate in the future; (xxv) certain provisions in our governing documents, our shareholders’ rights agreement and of Delaware law could deter, delay or prevent a third party from acquiring us and prevent shareholders from realizing a takeover premium; and (xxvi) an adverse outcome, to the extent not covered by insurance, in the class action or shareholder derivative lawsuits in which we and certain of our officers and directors are defendants. The foregoing review of important factors should not be construed as exhaustive and should be read in conjunction with the other cautionary statements that are included herein or detailed from time to time in our reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009. The Company undertakes no obligation to update publicly or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise.

ITEM 3.    QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
 
   The Company's market risk has not changed significantly for the risks disclosed in Item 7A of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009.

ITEM 4.    CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

    We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, or CEO, and Chief Financial Officer, or CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  As of July 3, 2010, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of our Management, including our CEO and CFO, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934). 0; Based on that evaluation, our management, including our CEO and CFO, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of July 3, 2010.
 
   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.
 
    Because of their inherent limitations, disclosure controls and procedures and 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.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.    LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
 
    On or about November 11, 2008, plaintiff Charlie Attias filed a putative securities class action lawsuit in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey, captioned Charlie Attias v. Anadigics, Inc., et al., No. 3:08-cv-05572, and, on or about November 21, 2008, plaintiff Paul Kuznetz filed a related class action lawsuit in the same court, captioned Paul J. Kuznetz v. Anadigics, Inc., et al., No. 3:08-cv-05750 (jointly, the "Class Actions").  The Complaints in the Class Actions, which were consolidated under the caption In re Anadigics, Inc. Securities Litigation, No. 3:08-cv-05572, by an Order of the District Court dated November 24, 2008, seek unspecified damages for alleged violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as well as Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder, in connection with alleged misrepresentations and omissions in connection with, among other things, Anadigics's manufacturing capabilities and the demand for its products.  On October 23, 2009, plaintiffs filed a Consolidated Amended Class Action Complaint, which names the Company, a current officer and a former officer-director, and alleges a proposed class period that runs from July 24, 2007 through August 7, 2008.  On December 23, 2009, defendants filed a motion to dismiss the Amended Complaint.  As of March 30, 2010, that motion had been fully briefed by the parties.
 
    On or about January 14, 2009, a shareholder's derivative lawsuit, captioned Sicari v. Anadigics, Inc., et al., No. SOM-L-88-09, was filed in the Superior Court of New Jersey, and, on or about February 2, 2009, a related shareholder's derivative lawsuit, captioned Moradzadeh v. Anadigics, Inc., et al., No. SOM-L-198-09, was filed in the same court (jointly, the "Derivative Lawsuits").  The Derivative Lawsuits seek unspecified damages for alleged state law claims against certain of the Company's current and former directors arising out of the matters at issue in the Class Actions.  By Order dated March 6, 2009, the New Jersey Superior Court consolidated the Deriva tive Lawsuits under the caption In re Anadigics, Inc. Derivative Litigation, No. SOM-L-88-09.  By Order dated March 27, 2009, the court stayed the Derivative Lawsuits pending disposition of the defendants' motion to dismiss the Amended Complaint in the Class Actions.
 
   Because the Class Actions and the Derivative Lawsuits, which are in a preliminary stage, do not specify alleged monetary damages, we are unable to reasonably estimate a possible range of loss, if any, to the Company in connection therewith.
 
   We are also a party to ordinary course litigation arising out of the operation of our business. We believe that the ultimate resolution of such ordinary course litigation should not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial condition or results of operations.
