Motorola Solutions, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Dollars in millions, except as noted)
(Unaudited)
1.
Basis of Presentation
The condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 28, 2014 and for the three and six months ended June 28, 2014 and June 29, 2013, include, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments and reclassifications) necessary to present fairly the condensed consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations, statements of comprehensive income, statement of stockholders' equity, and statements of cash flows of Motorola Solutions, Inc. (“Motorola Solutions” or the “Company”) for all periods presented.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 28, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be expected for the full year.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In January 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-05, “Service Concession Arrangements.” The ASU clarifies that an operating entity should not account for a services concession arrangement with a public-sector grantor as a lease if:  (i) the grantor controls or has the ability to modify or approve the services the operating entity must provide, to whom it must provide them, and at what price and (ii) the grantor controls any residual interest in the infrastructure at the end of the arrangement. In addition, the infrastructure used in a service concession arrangement would not be recognized as property, plant and equipment of the operating entity. The ASU is to be applied on a modified retrospective basis to service concession arrangements outstanding upon adoption and will be effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2015. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements and footnote disclosures.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers." This new standard will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP. The core principle of the ASU is that an entity should recognize revenue for the transfer of goods or services equal to the amount it expects to receive for those goods and services. The ASU requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and estimates and changes in those estimates. The ASU will be effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2017, and allows for both retrospective and modified-retrospective methods of adoption. The Company is in the process of determining the method of adoption it will elect and is currently assessing the impact of this ASU on its consolidated financial statements and footnote disclosures.

Discontinued Operations
On April 14, 2014, the Company entered into a Master Acquisition Agreement (the “Acquisition Agreement”) with Zebra Technologies Corporation to sell the Company’s Enterprise business for $3.45 billion in cash. Certain assets of the Enterprise business will be excluded from the transaction and retained by the Company, including the Company’s iDEN business, and other assets and certain liabilities as specified in the Acquisition Agreement. The transaction is expected to close by the end of 2014. The historical financial results of the Enterprise business, excluding those assets and liabilities retained in the transaction, are reflected in the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements and footnotes as discontinued operations for all periods presented.
The following table displays summarized activity in the Company's condensed consolidated statements of operations for discontinued operations during the three and six months ended June 28, 2014 and June 29, 2013:

During the three months ended June 28, 2014, the Company recorded a $721 million tax benefit to establish a deferred tax asset associated with an outside basis difference which we now expect to realize in the foreseeable future. The tax benefit represents the excess of the tax basis of our investment in the Enterprise subsidiaries over the financial statement carrying value (the deductible outside basis difference).

Debt and Credit Facilities
As of June 28, 2014, the Company had a $2.0 billion unsecured syndicated revolving credit facility (the “2014 Motorola Solutions Credit Agreement”) scheduled to mature on May 29, 2019. Effective May 29, 2014, this facility replaced the previous $1.5 billion unsecured syndicated revolving credit facility (the “2011 Motorola Solutions Credit Agreement”) which was scheduled to mature on June 30, 2014. The Company must comply with certain customary covenants, including maximum leverage ratio as defined in the 2014 Motorola Solutions Credit Agreement. The Company is no longer subject to a minimum interest coverage covenant under the new facility. The Company was in compliance with its financial covenants as of June 28, 2014. The Company did not borrow under the 2011 Motorola Solutions Credit Agreement or the 2014 Motorola Solutions Credit Agreement during the three and six months ended June 28, 2014.
As of June 28, 2014, the Company had a letter of credit sub-limit of $450 million under the 2014 Motorola Solutions Credit Agreement. No letters of credit were issued under the revolving credit facility as of June 28, 2014.
During the first quarter of 2013, the Company issued an aggregate face principal amount of $600 million of 3.500% Senior Notes due 2023, of which, after debt issuance costs and debt discounts, the Company recognized net proceeds from issuance of this debt of $588 million.

Risk Management
Foreign Currency Risk
At June 28, 2014, the Company had outstanding foreign exchange contracts with notional amounts totaling $867 million, compared to $837 million outstanding at December 31, 2013. The Company does not believe these financial instruments should subject it to undue risk due to foreign exchange movements because gains and losses on these contracts should generally offset gains and losses on the underlying assets, liabilities and transactions, except for the ineffective portion of the instruments, which are charged to Other within Other income (expense) in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations.
The following table shows the five largest net notional amounts of the positions to buy or sell foreign currency as of June 28, 2014, and the corresponding positions as of December 31, 2013:

Interest Rate Risk
At June 28, 2014, the Company had $2.5 billion of long-term debt, including the current portion, which is primarily priced at long-term, fixed interest rates.
As part of its liability management program, one of the Company’s European subsidiaries has outstanding interest rate agreements (“Interest Agreements”) relating to Euro-denominated loans. The interest on the Euro-denominated loans is variable. The Interest Agreements change the characteristics of interest payments from variable to maximum fixed-rate payments. The Interest Agreements are not accounted for as a part of a hedging relationship and, accordingly, the changes in the fair value of the Interest Agreements are included in Other income (expense) in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations. The fair value of the Interest Agreements was in a liability position of $3 million at June 28, 2014 and December 31, 2013.
Counterparty Risk
The use of derivative financial instruments exposes the Company to counterparty credit risk in the event of non-performance by counterparties. However, the Company’s risk is limited to the fair value of the instruments when the derivative is in an asset position. The Company actively monitors its exposure to credit risk. As of June 28, 2014, all of the counterparties have investment grade credit ratings. As of June 28, 2014, the Company had no exposure to aggregate net credit risk with all counterparties.

Income Taxes
During the three months ended June 28, 2014, the Company increased current deferred tax assets by $721 million related to an outside basis difference.  The outside basis difference represents the excess of the tax basis of our investment in the Enterprise subsidiaries over the financial statement carrying value (the deductible outside basis difference). 
At June 28, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company had valuation allowances of $212 million and $200 million, respectively, including $179 million and $178 million, respectively, relating to deferred tax assets for non-U.S. subsidiaries. The Company believes the remaining deferred tax assets are more-likely-than-not to be realizable based on estimates of future taxable income and the implementation of tax planning strategies.
Undistributed earnings the Company intends to reinvest indefinitely, and for which no income taxes have been provided, aggregate to $1.4 billion at June 28, 2014 and December 31, 2013. The Company currently has no plans to repatriate the foreign earnings permanently reinvested and therefore, the time and manner of repatriation is uncertain. If circumstances change and it becomes apparent that some or all of the permanently reinvested earnings will be remitted to the U.S. in the foreseeable future, an additional income tax charge may be necessary.
The Company evaluates its permanent reinvestment assertions with respect to foreign earnings at each reporting period and, except for certain earnings the Company intends to reinvest indefinitely, accrues for the U.S. federal and foreign tax applicable to the earnings. During the first quarter of 2013, the Company reassessed its unremitted earnings position and concluded that certain of its non-U.S. subsidiaries' earnings were permanently reinvested overseas. The Company intends to utilize the offshore earnings to fund foreign investments, such as potential acquisitions and capital expenditures. In the first quarter of 2013, the Company recorded a net tax benefit of $25 million related to reversals of deferred tax liabilities for undistributed foreign earnings due to the change in permanent reinvestment assertion.
As of June 28, 2014, the Company has approximately $650 million of foreign earnings not considered permanently reinvested and which may be repatriated without an additional tax charge, given the U.S. federal and foreign tax accrued on undistributed earnings and the utilization of available foreign tax credits.
The Company had unrecognized tax benefits of $120 million and $147 million at June 28, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively, of which $99 million and $125 million, respectively, if recognized, would affect the effective tax rate, net of resulting changes to valuation allowances. During the six months ended June 28, 2014, the Company adjusted its unrecognized tax benefits for prior year tax positions for facts that now indicate the extent to which certain tax positions are more-likely-than-not of being sustained. As a result, the Company recorded a gross increase of $24 million and a gross decrease of $51 million to unrecognized tax benefits for prior year tax positions resulting in a net tax benefit of $27 million.
Based on the potential outcome of the Company’s global tax examinations or the expiration of the statute of limitations for specific jurisdictions, it is reasonably possible that the unrecognized tax benefits will change within the next twelve months. The associated net tax impact on the effective tax rate, exclusive of valuation allowance changes, is estimated to be in the range of a $50 million tax charge to a $50 million tax benefit, with cash payments not to exceed $25 million.
The Company has audits pending in several tax jurisdictions. Although the final resolution of the Company's global tax disputes is uncertain, based on current information, in the opinion of the Company's management, the ultimate disposition of these matters is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, liquidity or results of operations. However, an unfavorable resolution of the Company's global tax disputes could have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, liquidity or results of operations in the periods in which the matters are ultimately resolved.

Fair Value Measurements
The Company holds certain fixed income securities, equity securities and derivatives, which are recognized and disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis. 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 as of the measurement date. Fair value is measured using the fair value hierarchy and related valuation methodologies as defined in the authoritative literature. This guidance specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to each measurement are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company's assumptions about current market conditions.
The fair value hierarchy and related valuation methodologies are as follows:
Level 1—Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.
Level 2—Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active and model-derived valuations, in which all significant inputs are observable in active markets.
Level 3—Valuations derived from valuation techniques, in which one or more significant inputs are unobservable.

The fair values of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities by level in the fair value hierarchy as of June 28, 2014 and December 31, 2013 were as follows:

The Company had no Level 3 holdings as of June 28, 2014 or December 31, 2013.
At June 28, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company had $1.8 billion and $2.1 billion, respectively, of investments in money market mutual funds (Level 2) classified as Cash and cash equivalents in its condensed consolidated balance sheets. The money market funds had quoted market prices that are equivalent to par.
Using quoted market prices and market interest rates, the Company determined that the fair value of long-term debt at June 28, 2014 was $2.6 billion (Level 2), as compared to the instruments' face value of $2.5 billion. Since considerable judgment is required in interpreting market information, the fair value of the long-term debt is not necessarily indicative of the amount which could be realized in a current market exchange.
All other financial instruments are carried at cost, which is not materially different from the instruments’ fair values.

The current portion of long-term receivables is included in Accounts receivable, net and the non-current portion of long-term receivables is included in Other assets in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Certain purchasers of the Company’s products and services may request that the Company provide long-term financing (defined as financing with a term of greater than one year) in connection with the sale of products and services. These requests may include all or a portion of the purchase price of the products and services. The Company’s obligation to provide long-term financing may be conditioned on the issuance of a letter of credit in favor of the Company by a reputable bank to support the purchaser’s credit or a pre-existing commitment from a reputable bank to purchase the long-term receivables from the Company. The Company had outstanding commitments to provide long-term financing to third parties totaling $166 million at June 28, 2014, compared to $50 million at December 31, 2013.

Commitments and Contingencies
Legal Matters
The Company is a defendant in various suits, claims and investigations that arise in the normal course of business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position, liquidity or results of operations. However, an unfavorable resolution could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations in the periods in which the matters are ultimately resolved.

19


Other Indemnifications
The Company is a party to a variety of agreements pursuant to which it is obligated to indemnify the other party with respect to certain matters. In indemnification cases, payment by the Company is conditioned on the other party making a claim pursuant to the procedures specified in the particular contract, which procedures typically allow the Company to challenge the other party's claims. In some instances, the Company may have recourse against third parties for certain payments made by the Company.
In addition, the Company may provide indemnifications for losses that result from the breach of general warranties contained in certain commercial and intellectual property agreements. Historically, the Company has not made significant payments under these agreements.
Also, pursuant to the Master Separation and Distribution Agreement and certain other agreements entered into in connection with the separating of Motorola Mobility Holdings, Inc. ("Motorola Mobility"), Motorola Mobility agreed to indemnify the Company for certain liabilities, and the Company agreed to indemnify Motorola Mobility for certain liabilities, in each case for uncapped amounts.

The 2014 additional charges of $47 million represent severance costs for approximately 600 employees, all of which were indirect employees.

The remaining accrual of $78 million, which is included in Accrued liabilities in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets at June 28, 2014, is expected to be paid, primarily within one year, to approximately 750 employees, who have either been severed or have been notified of their severance and have begun or will begin receiving payments.

Goodwill
During the second quarter of 2014 as a result of the reclassification of the Enterprise business to discontinued operations, the Company determined the reportable segments and reporting units of its continuing operations. The Company now has two segments, Products and Services, which are the same as its reporting units. The Company's goodwill was allocated to its new reporting units based on their relative fair values. In conjunction with the reporting unit change in the second quarter of 2014, the Company evaluated its goodwill for impairment concluding it is more-likely-than-not that the fair values of each of its reporting units exceed their respective carrying values. As such, a goodwill impairment was not recorded.

Results of Operations—Three months ended June 28, 2014 compared to three months ended June 29, 2013
Net Sales
Net sales were $1.4 billion in the second quarter of 2014, down $104 million, or 7%, compared to net sales of $1.5 billion in the second quarter of 2013. The decrease in net sales reflects a $99 million, or 10%, decrease in net sales in the Products segment, driven by declines in: (i) North America, primarily in ASTRO sales to our state and local customers, as a result of fewer device sales from narrowbanding, and (ii) APME, partially offset by double-digit growth in the Products segment in EA and Latin America reflecting solid performance in all major product categories. In addition, the decrease in net sales includes a $5 million, or 1%, decrease in net sales in the Services segment, driven by declines in: (i) North America as a result of iDEN services declines and (ii) APME, partially offset by double-digit Services growth in EA in Integration and Managed services.
Gross Margin
Gross margin was $656 million, or 47.1% of net sales, in the second quarter of 2014, compared to $750 million, or 50.1% of net sales, in the second quarter of 2013. The decrease in gross margin percentage is driven primarily by: (i) a decline in gross margin as a percentage of sales in ASTRO in North America as a result of a shift from subscribers to infrastructure, which includes more third party equipment, (ii) overall sales mix between the Products and Services segments, and (iii) lower net sales in iDEN services which have a slightly higher gross margin percentage compared to the rest of the services portfolio. 
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses decreased 9% to $308 million, or 22.1% of net sales, in the second quarter of 2014, compared to $339 million, or 22.6% of net sales, in the second quarter of 2013. The decrease in SG&A expenditures is primarily due to reduced compensation expenses, including incentives, pension expense, and the effect of headcount reductions enacted in previous periods.
Research and Development Expenditures
Research and development (“R&D”) expenditures decreased 10% to $176 million, or 12.6% of net sales, in the second quarter of 2014, from $195 million, or 13.0% of net sales, in the second quarter of 2013. The decrease in R&D expenditures is primarily due to: (i) headcount reductions enacted during previous periods, (ii) lower incentive compensation expenses, and (iii) the reduction of spending in certain development programs, such as iDEN.
Other Charges
We recorded net charges of $34 million in Other charges in the second quarter of 2014, compared to net charges of $13 million in the second quarter of 2013. The net charges in the second quarter of 2014 included: (i) $25 million of net reorganization of business charges and (ii) an $8 million charge for a legal settlement. The net charges in the second quarter of 2013 of $13 million were all related to net reorganization of business charges. The net reorganization of business charges are discussed in further detail in the “Reorganization of Businesses” section.
Net Interest Expense
Net interest expense was $29 million in the second quarter of 2014, compared to net interest expense of $32 million in the second quarter of 2013. Net interest expense in the second quarter of 2014 included interest expense of $34 million, partially offset by interest income of $5 million. Net interest expense in the second quarter of 2013 included interest expense of $38 million, partially offset by interest income of $6 million. The decrease in net interest expense in the second quarter of 2014 is primarily attributable to: (i) lower interest expense due to income tax-related interest charges of $5 million incurred in the second quarter of 2013 and (ii) a decrease in interest income due to lower average cash and cash equivalents during the second quarter of 2014.
Net Loss on Sales of Investments and Businesses
Net loss on sales of investments and businesses was $4 million in the second quarter of 2014, consisting of a loss on the sale of equity investments.
Other
Net Other expense was $7 million in the second quarter of 2014, compared to net Other expense of $3 million in the second quarter of 2013. The net Other expense in both the second quarter of 2014 and 2013 was primarily comprised of foreign currency losses.
Effective Tax Rate
We recorded $20 million of net tax expense in the second quarter of 2014, resulting in an effective tax rate of 20%, compared to $59 million of net tax benefit in the second quarter of 2013, resulting in a negative effective tax rate. Our effective tax rate in the second quarter of 2014 was favorably impacted by $12 million of discrete tax benefits primarily related to return-to-provision adjustments associated with our deferred tax liability for undistributed foreign earnings. Our effective tax rate in

27


the second quarter of 2013 was favorably impacted by $118 million of net tax benefits largely associated with the recognition of excess foreign tax credits on undistributed foreign earnings.
Earnings from Continuing Operations Attributable to Motorola Solutions, Inc.
We had earnings from continuing operations attributable to Motorola Solutions, Inc. of $78 million, or $0.30 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2014, compared to earnings from continuing operations attributable to Motorola Solutions, Inc. of $223 million, or $0.81 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2013.
The decrease in earnings from continuing operations in the second quarter of 2014, as compared to the second quarter of 2013, was primarily driven by: (i) a $94 million decrease in gross margin primarily due to sales declines and a change in sales mix and (ii) a higher effective tax rate. The decrease in earnings per diluted share from continuing operations was driven by lower earnings from continuing operations, partially offset by a reduction in shares outstanding as a result of our share repurchase program.
Earnings from Discontinued Operations
After taxes, we had $746 million, or $2.92 per diluted share, earnings from discontinued operations in the second quarter of 2014, compared to earnings from discontinued operations of $35 million, or $0.13 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2013.
The increase in earnings from discontinued operations in the second quarter of 2014, as compared to the second quarter of 2013, was primarily driven by a $721 million tax benefit associated with establishing a deferred tax asset for outside basis differences on the Enterprise business. The $721 million tax benefit was partially offset by lower earnings in the Enterprise business in the second quarter of 2014 as compared to the second quarter of 2013. Upon the expected closing of the Enterprise business in the fourth quarter of 2014, we expect to incur a tax expense which will substantially offset this $721 tax benefit on a year-to-date basis.

Results of Operations—Six months ended June 28, 2014 compared to six months ended June 29, 2013
Net Sales
Net sales were $2.6 billion in the first half of 2014, down $271 million, or 9%, compared to net sales of $2.9 billion in the first half of 2013. The decrease in net sales reflects a $259 million, or 14%, decrease in net sales in the Products segment driven by: (i) declines in ASTRO in North America, as a result of fewer device sales from narrowbanding, and APME and (ii) PCR sales, primarily in North America, partially offset by single digit growth in EA and Latin America. In addition, the decrease in sales includes a $12 million, or 1%, decrease in net sales in the Services segment driven by declines in North America, as a result of iDEN services declines, and APME, partially offset by an increase in EA in Integration and Managed services.
Gross Margin
Gross margin was $1.2 billion, or 47.0% of net sales, in the first half of 2014, compared to $1.4 billion, or 49.9% of net sales, in the first half of 2013. The decrease in gross margin percentage is primarily due to: (i) a decline in gross margin as a percentage of sales in ASTRO in North America as a result of a shift from subscribers to infrastructure, which includes more third party equipment, and (ii) the lower net sales in iDEN services which have a slightly higher gross margin percentage compared to the rest of the services portfolio. 
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses decreased 8% to $615 million, or 23.5% of net sales, in the first half of 2014, compared to $665 million, or 23.0% of net sales, in the first half of 2013. The decrease in SG&A expenditures is primarily due to reduced compensation expenses, including incentives, pension expense, and the effect of headcount reductions enacted in previous periods.
Research and Development Expenditures
Research and development (“R&D”) expenditures decreased $32 million to $350 million, or 13.3% of net sales, in the first half of 2014, compared to $382 million, or 13.2% of net sales, in the first half of 2013. The decrease in R&D expenditures is primarily due to: (i) headcount reductions enacted during previous periods, (ii) lower incentive compensation expenses, and (iii) the reduction of spending in certain development programs, such as iDEN.
Other Charges
We recorded net charges of $23 million in Other charges in the first half of 2014, compared to net charges of $20 million in the first half of 2013. The net charges in the first half of 2014 included: (i) $34 million of net reorganization of business charges, (ii) $8 million of legal settlement charges, and (iii) $2 million of charges relating to the amortization of intangibles, partially offset by a $21 million gain on the sale of a building and land. The net charges in the first half of 2013 of $20 million

28


all related to net reorganization of business charges. The net reorganization of business charges are discussed in further detail in the “Reorganization of Businesses” section.
Net Interest Expense
Net interest expense was $54 million in the first half of 2014, as compared to $57 million in the first half of 2013. Net interest expense in the first half of 2014 includes interest expense of $64 million, partially offset by interest income of $10 million. Net interest expense in the first half of 2013 includes interest expense of $68 million, partially offset by interest income of $11 million. The decrease in net interest expense in the first half of 2014 is primarily attributable to: (i) lower interest expense due to income tax-related interest charges of $5 million incurred in the second quarter of 2013 and (ii) a decrease in interest income due to lower average cash and cash equivalents during the first half of 2014 compared to the first half of 2013.
Net Gains on Sales of Investments and Businesses
Net gains on sales of investments and businesses were $4 million in the first half of 2014 and $7 million in the first half of 2013. These net gains consisted primarily of gains on the sales of equity investments.
Other
Net Other expense was $9 million in the first half of 2014, compared to $3 million in the first half of 2013. The net Other expense in the first half of 2014 was primarily comprised of a $10 million foreign currency loss. The net Other expense in the first half of 2013 was primarily comprised of a $7 million loss on foreign currency, partially offset by $6 million of other net investment earnings.
Effective Tax Rate
We recorded $23 million of net tax expense in the first half of 2014, resulting in an effective tax rate of 12%, compared to $61 million of net tax benefit in the first half of 2013, resulting in a negative effective tax rate. Our effective tax rate in the first half of 2014 was lower than the U.S. statutory tax rate of 35% due to: (i) a $30 million tax benefit associated with the net reduction in unrecognized tax benefits recorded in the first quarter of 2014 and (ii) $12 million of discrete tax benefits primarily related to return-to-provision adjustments associated with our deferred tax liability for undistributed foreign earnings. Our effective tax rate in the first half of 2013 was lower than the U.S. statutory tax rate of 35% due to: (i) $128 million of net tax benefits largely associated with excess foreign tax credits on undistributed foreign earnings, (ii) a $25 million reduction in our deferred tax liability for undistributed foreign earnings primarily due to changes in permanent reinvestment assertions, and (iii) an $8 million tax benefit for R&D tax credits.
Earnings from Continuing Operations Attributable to Motorola Solutions, Inc.
After taxes, we had earnings from continuing operations attributable to Motorola Solutions, Inc. of $163 million, or $0.63 per diluted share, in the first half of 2014, compared to earnings from continuing operations attributable to Motorola Solutions, Inc. of $380 million, or $1.37 per diluted share, in the first half of 2013.
The decrease in earnings from continuing operations in the first half of 2014, as compared to the first half of 2013, was primarily driven by: (i) a $210 million decrease in gross margin primarily due to sales declines and a change in sales mix and (ii) a higher effective tax rate. The decrease in earnings per diluted share was driven by lower earnings from continuing operations, partially offset by a reduction in shares outstanding as a result of our share repurchase program.
Earnings from Discontinued Operations
After taxes, we had $788 million, or $3.07 per diluted share, earnings from discontinued operations in the first half of 2014, compared to earnings from discontinued operations of $70 million, or $0.25 per diluted share, in the first half of 2013.
The increase in earnings from discontinued operations in the first half of 2014, as compared to the first half of 2013, was primarily driven by a $721 million tax benefit associated with establishing a deferred tax asset for outside basis differences on the Enterprise business. The $721 million tax benefit was partially offset by slightly lower earnings in the Enterprise business in the first half of 2014 as compared to the first half of 2013. Upon the expected closing of the Enterprise business in the fourth quarter of 2014, we expect to incur a tax expense which will substantially offset this $721 tax benefit on a year-to-date basis.

Three months ended June 28, 2014 compared to three months ended June 29, 2013
The segment’s net sales decreased $99 million, to $887 million in the second quarter of 2014, as compared to $986 million during the second quarter of 2013. The decrease in net sales in the Products segment reflects a decrease in sales of: (i) ASTRO equipment in North America and APME and (ii) PCR sales in North America, partially offset by growth in TETRA. On a geographic basis, net sales declined in North America and APME, and increased in Latin America and EA, compared to the second quarter of 2013. The decline in North America was driven by lower ASTRO sales to state and local public safety customers and lower PCR sales. The decline in APME was driven by lower sales in ASTRO. The increase in Latin America was driven by double-digit growth in ASTRO. The increase in EA was primarily driven by TETRA sales. Net sales in North America continued to comprise a significant portion of the segment’s business, accounting for approximately 60% of the segment’s net sales in the second quarter of 2014 and 67% of the segment’s net sales in the second quarter of 2013.
The segment had operating earnings of $95 million in the second quarter of 2014, compared to $125 million in the second quarter of 2013. As a percentage of net sales in the second quarter of 2014 as compared to the second quarter of 2013, gross margin decreased, SG&A expenditures decreased, and R&D expenditures decreased. The decrease in operating earnings was primarily driven by a decrease in net sales and change in product mix resulting in lower gross margin and an increase in Other charges as a result of increased reorganization of business charges.
Six months ended June 28, 2014 compared to six months ended June 29, 2013
The segment’s net sales decreased $259 million, to $1.6 billion in the first half of 2014, as compared to $1.9 billion in the first half of 2013. The decrease in net sales in the Products segment reflects a decrease in sales of: (i) ASTRO equipment in North America and APME and (ii) PCR sales in North America, partially offset by growth in TETRA. On a geographic basis, net sales declined in North America and APME, and increased in Latin America and EA, compared to the first half of 2013. The decline in North America was driven by lower ASTRO sales to state and local public safety customers and lower PCR sales. The decline in APME was driven by lower sales in ASTRO. The increase in Latin America was driven by double-digit growth in ASTRO. The increase in EA was primarily driven by TETRA sales. Net sales in North America continued to comprise a significant portion of the segment’s business, accounting for approximately 60% of the segment’s net sales in the first half of 2014 and 64% of the segment’s net sales in the first half of 2013.
The segment had operating earnings of $134 million in the first half of 2014, compared to $231 million in the first half of 2013. As a percentage of net sales in the first half of 2014 as compared to the first half of 2013, gross margin decreased, SG&A expenditures decreased, and R&D expenditures decreased. The decrease in operating earnings was primarily driven by a decrease in net sales and change in product mix resulting in lower gross margin and an increase in Other charges as a result of increased reorganization of business charges.
Services Segment
For the second quarter of 2014, the segment’s net sales represented 36% of our consolidated net sales, compared to 34% of our consolidated net sales for the second quarter of 2013. For the first half of 2014, the segment’s net sales represented 37% of our consolidated net sales, compared to 34% of our consolidated net sales for the first half of 2013.

Three months ended June 28, 2014 compared to three months ended June 29, 2013
The segment’s net sales decreased $5 million, or 1%, to $506 million in the second quarter of 2014, as compared to $511 million in the second quarter of 2013. The 1% decrease in net sales in the Services segment reflects a decrease in sales of iDEN services, partially offset by a slight increase in Integration services. On a geographic basis, net sales declined in North America and APME, increased slightly in EA, and remained constant in Latin America, compared to the second quarter of 2013. The decline in North America was driven by the decline in iDEN services sales. The decrease in APME was driven by lower Integration services sales. The increase in EA was primarily driven by Integration and Managed services sales. Net sales in North America continued to comprise a significant portion of the segment’s business, accounting for approximately 61% of the segment’s net sales in the second quarters of 2014 and 2013.
The segment had operating earnings of $43 million in the second quarter of 2014, compared to $78 million in the second quarter of 2013 as a result of lower gross margins related to long-term project mix. As a percentage of net sales in the second quarter of 2014 as compared to the second quarter of 2013, gross margin and SG&A expenditures decreased, and R&D expenditures increased.
Six months ended June 28, 2014 compared to six months ended June 29, 2013
The segment’s net sales decreased $12 million, or 1%, to $982 million in the first half of 2014, as compared to net sales of $994 million in the first half of 2013. The 1% decrease in net sales in the Services segment reflects a decrease in sales of: (i) iDEN services and (ii) Lifecycle Management and Support services, partially offset by an increase in sales of Integration services. On a geographic basis, net sales declined in North America and APME, increased in EA, and remained constant in Latin America, compared to the first half of 2013. The decline in North America was driven by lower sales in (i) iDEN and (ii) Lifecycle Management and Support services. The decrease in APME was driven by lower Lifecycle Management and Support and Integration services. The increase in EA was primarily driven by higher Integration and Managed services, partially offset by lower sales of Lifecycle Management and Support services. Net sales in North America continued to comprise a significant portion of the segment’s business, accounting for approximately 60% of the segment’s net sales in the first half of 2014 and 61% of the segment’s net sales in the first half of 2013.
The segment had operating earnings of $111 million in the first half of 2014, compared to operating earnings of $145 million in the first half of 2013. As a percentage of net sales in the first half of 2014 as compared to the first half of 2013, gross margin and SG&A expenditures decreased, and R&D expenditures increased. The decrease in operating earnings was primarily related to declines in gross margin.

Reorganization of Businesses
During the first half of 2014, we implemented various productivity improvement plans aimed at continuing operating margin improvements by driving efficiencies and reducing operating costs. During the three months ended June 28, 2014, we recorded net reorganization of business charges of $28 million related to the separation of approximately 400 employees, of which 300 were indirect employees and 100 were direct employees. Of the $28 million, $25 million of charges were recorded within Other charges and $3 million in Cost of sales in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. The $28 million of charges were all related to employee separation costs.
During the six months ended June 28, 2014, we recorded net reorganization of business charges of $38 million including separation costs for approximately 600 employees, of which 500 were indirect employees and 100 were direct employees. The $38 million recorded for net reorganization of business charges included $34 million of charges recorded in Other charges and $4 million in Cost of sales in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. Included in the aggregate $38 million are charges of $34 million for employee separation costs and $4 million for exit costs.
During the three months ended June 29, 2013, we recorded net reorganization of business charges of $18 million related to the separation of approximately 300 employees, of which 200 were indirect employees and 100 were direct employees. Included in the aggregate $18 million of charges were $13 million of charges recorded in Other charges and $5 million in Cost of sales in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. Included in the aggregate $18 million are charges of $19 million for employee separation costs, partially offset by $1 million of reversals for accruals no longer needed.
During the six months ended June 29, 2013, we recorded net reorganization of business charges of $25 million including separation costs for approximately 400 employees, of which 100 were direct employees and 300 were indirect employees. The $25 million of charges included $20 million recorded in Other charges and $5 million in Cost of sales in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. Included in the aggregate $25 million are charges of $29 million for employee separation costs, partially offset by $4 million of reversals for accruals no longer needed.
We expect to realize cost-saving benefits of approximately $23 million during the remaining six months of 2014 from the plans that were initiated during the first six months of 2014. Beyond 2014, we expect the reorganization plans initiated during

31


the first six months of 2014 to provide annualized cost savings of approximately $37 million, consisting of: (i) $33 million of savings in operating expenses and (ii) $4 million of savings in Cost of Sales.
The following table displays the net charges incurred by business segment:

Cash payments for employee severance and exit costs in connection with the reorganization of business plans were $75 million in the first six months of 2014 and $32 million in the first six months of 2013. These cash payments included $25 million in the first six months of 2014 and $11 million in the first six months of 2013. Of the $85 million of reorganization of businesses accruals at June 28, 2014, including those related to discontinued operations which will be maintained by us after the sale of our Enterprise business, $78 million relate to employee separation costs and are expected to be paid within one year. The remaining $7 million in accruals primarily relate to lease termination obligations that are expected to be paid over a number of years.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
We decreased the aggregate of our cash and cash equivalent balances by $349 million from $3.2 billion as of December 31, 2013 to $2.9 billion as of June 28, 2014. The decrease is primarily due to $631 million of capital returned to shareholders through share repurchases and dividends paid during the first half of 2014, partially offset by: (i) $100 million of distributions from discontinued operations and (ii) $130 million generated by operating activities.
As highlighted in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows, our liquidity and available capital resources are impacted by four key components: (i) cash and cash equivalents, (ii) operating activities, (iii) investing activities, and (iv) financing activities.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Our cash and cash equivalents (which are highly-liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less) were $2.9 billion at June 28, 2014 and $3.2 billion at December 31, 2013. At June 28, 2014, $1.7 billion of this amount was held in the U.S. and approximately $1.2 billion was held by the Company or its subsidiaries in other countries (including $516 million in the United Kingdom). At June 28, 2014 and December 31, 2013, restricted cash was $64 million and $63 million, respectively.
Repatriation of foreign funds continues to be important given our domestic cash needs. We continuously analyze and
review various repatriation strategies to efficiently repatriate funds in the context of meeting our business needs in a tax efficient manner. During the first half of 2014, we repatriated $297 million in funds to the U.S. from international jurisdictions. We have approximately $650 million of foreign earnings that are not permanently reinvested and may be repatriated without an additional income tax charge given the U.S. federal and foreign tax accrued on undistributed earnings and the utilization of available foreign tax credits. Where appropriate, we may also pursue capital reduction activities; however, such activities can be involved and lengthy. While we regularly repatriate funds, and a portion of offshore funds can be repatriated with minimal adverse financial impact, repatriation of some of these funds may be subject to delay for local country approvals and could have potential adverse cash tax consequences.
On April 14, 2014, we entered into a Master Acquisition Agreement with Zebra Technologies Corporation to sell our Enterprise business for $3.45 billion in cash. The transaction is expected to close by the end of 2014. Upon closing, we intend to return the proceeds to shareholders in a timely manner.
Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities in the first half of 2014 was $130 million, as compared to $100 million of cash used for operating activities in the first half of 2013. Operating cash flows in the first half of 2014, as compared to the first half of 2013, were positively impacted by: (i) collections primarily related to our long-term contracts, (ii) the return of the India tax withdrawals seized in the first quarter of 2013, and (iii) lower incentive and legal settlement payments, partially offset by: (i) lower operating earnings and (ii) higher employee severance payments.
In the first quarter of 2013, the Indian rupee equivalent of $43 million was seized by the Indian tax authorities from our
Indian subsidiary related to Indian income tax and interest assessments currently under review by the Indian and U.S.

32


Competent Authorities. As a result of our appeals, the Supreme Court of India directed the Indian tax authorities to refund the full amount of cash seized and such refund was received by our Indian subsidiary during the first half of 2014.
We contributed $66 million to our U.S. pension plans during the first half of 2014, compared to $50 million contributed in the first half of 2013. Subsequent to quarter end, we made a planned contribution of $40 million to our U.S. pension plans. We contributed $20 million to our non-U.S. pension plans during the first half of 2014, compared to $17 million contributed in the first half of 2013.
Investing Activities
Net cash used for investing activities was $48 million in the first half of 2014, compared to net cash provided by investing activities of $325 million in the first half of 2013. This $373 million decline was primarily due to $376 million of proceeds from sales of Sigma Fund investments in the first half of 2013 with no comparable activity in the first half of 2014.
Acquisition and Investments: We used net cash for acquisitions and investments of $11 million during the first six months of 2014 compared to $8 million in the first six months of 2013. The cash used for investments in both periods relates to a number of equity investments.
Sales of Investments and Businesses: We had $21 million of proceeds related to the sales of investments and businesses in both the first six months of 2014 and the first six months of 2013. The proceeds in both periods were comprised of sales of certain equity investments.
Capital Expenditures: Capital expenditures increased slightly in the first six months of 2014 to $82 million, compared to $79 million in the first six months of 2013. The increase in capital expenditures was driven by increased revenue-generating network expenditures, partially offset by decreased information technology infrastructure expenditures.
Sales of Property, Plant, and Equipment: We had $24 million of proceeds related to the sale of property, plant, and equipment in the first six months of 2014 compared to $15 million in the first six months of 2013. The proceeds in both periods were comprised of sales of buildings and land.
Financing Activities
Net cash used for financing activities was $438 million in the first six months of 2014, compared to $205 million in the first six months of 2013. Cash used for financing activities in the first six months of 2014 was primarily comprised of: (i) $473 million used for purchases of our common stock under our share repurchase program and (ii) $158 million of cash used for the payment of dividends, partially offset by: (i) $100 million of distributions from discontinued operations and (ii) $85 million of net proceeds from the issuance of common stock in connection with our employee stock option plans and employee stock purchase plan. Net cash used for financing activities in the first six months of 2013 was primarily comprised of: (i) $907 million used for purchases of our common stock under our share repurchase program and (ii) $143 million of cash used for the payment of dividends, partially offset by: (i) $593 million of net proceeds from the issuance of debt, (ii) $99 million of net proceeds from the issuance of common stock in connection with our employee stock option plans and employee stock purchase plan, and (iii) $137 million of distributions from discontinued operations.
Long-Term Debt: We had outstanding long-term debt of $2.5 billion at both June 28, 2014 and December 31, 2013, including the current portions of $4 million at both June 28, 2014 and December 31, 2013.
We have investment grade ratings on our senior unsecured long-term debt from the three largest U.S. national rating agencies. We believe that we will be able to maintain sufficient access to the capital markets at our current ratings. Any future disruptions, uncertainty or volatility in the capital markets may result in higher funding costs for us and adversely affect our ability to access funds.
Share Repurchase Program: We paid an aggregate of $416 million during the second quarter of 2014, including transaction costs, to repurchase 6.2 million shares at an average price of $66.96 per share. We paid an aggregate of $473 million during the first half of 2014, including transaction costs, to repurchase approximately 7.1 million shares at an average price of $66.88 per share. All repurchased shares have been retired.
As of June 28, 2014, we have used approximately $5.7 billion of the share repurchase authority, including transaction costs, to repurchase shares, leaving approximately $1.3 billion of authority available for future repurchases.
Payment of Dividends: During the second quarter of 2014, we paid $79 million in cash dividends to holders of our common stock. During the first half of 2014, we paid $158 million in cash dividends to holders of our common stock. Subsequent to quarter end, we paid $78 million in cash dividends to holders of our common stock.
On July 31, 2014, we announced that our Board of Directors approved an increase in the quarterly cash dividend from $0.31 per share to $0.34 per share of common stock.

33


Credit Facilities
As of June 28, 2014, we had a $2.0 billion unsecured syndicated revolving credit facility (the “2014 Motorola Solutions Credit Agreement”) scheduled to mature on May 29, 2019. Effective May 29, 2014, this facility replaced the previous $1.5 billion unsecured syndicated revolving credit facility (the “2011 Motorola Solutions Credit Agreement”) which was scheduled to mature on June 30, 2014. We must comply with certain customary covenants, including maximum leverage ratio as defined in the 2014 Motorola Solutions Credit Agreement. We are no longer subject to a minimum interest coverage covenant under the new facility. We were in compliance with our financial covenants as of June 28, 2014. We did not borrow under the 2011 Motorola Solutions Credit Agreement or the 2014 Motorola Solutions Credit Agreement during the six months ended June 28, 2014.
As of June 28, 2014, we had a letter of credit sub-limit of $450 million under the 2014 Motorola Solutions Credit Agreement. No letters of credit were issued under the revolving credit facility as of June 28, 2014.
Long-Term Customer Financing Commitments
Outstanding Commitments: Certain purchasers of our products and services may request that we provide long-term financing (defined as financing with a term of greater than one year) in connection with the sale of products and services. These requests may include all or a portion of the purchase price of the products and services. Our obligation to provide long-term financing may be conditioned on the issuance of a letter of credit in favor of us by a reputable bank to support the purchaser’s credit or a pre-existing commitment from a reputable bank to purchase the long-term receivables from us. We had outstanding commitments to provide long-term financing to third parties totaling $166 million at June 28, 2014, compared to $50 million at December 31, 2013.
Outstanding Long-Term Receivables: We had net non-current long-term receivables of $18 million at June 28, 2014, compared to $1 million at December 31, 2013. These long-term receivables are generally interest bearing, with interest rates ranging from 0% to 9%.
Sales of Receivables

At June 28, 2014, we had retained servicing obligations for $460 million of sold long-term receivables, compared to $434 million of sold long-term receivables at December 31, 2013. Servicing obligations are limited to collection activities related to the sales of accounts receivables and long-term receivables.
Other Contingencies
Potential Contractual Damage Claims in Excess of Underlying Contract Value: In certain circumstances, we may enter into contracts with customers pursuant to which the damages that could be claimed by the other party for failed performance might exceed the revenue we receive from the contract. Contracts with these types of uncapped damage provisions are fairly rare, but individual contracts could still represent meaningful risk. There is a possibility that a damage claim by a counterparty to one of these contracts could result in expenses to us that are far in excess of the revenue received from the counterparty in connection with the contract.
Indemnification Provisions: We may provide indemnifications for losses that result from the breach of general warranties contained in certain commercial, intellectual property and divestiture agreements. Historically, we have not made significant payments under these agreements, nor have there been significant claims asserted against us. However, there is an increasing risk in relation to intellectual property indemnities given the current legal climate. In indemnification cases, our payment is conditioned on the other party making a claim pursuant to the procedures specified in the particular contract, for which procedures typically allow us to challenge the other party’s claims. Further, our obligations under divestiture agreements for indemnification based on breach of representations and warranties are generally limited in terms of duration, typically not more than 24 months, and for amounts not in excess of the contract value.

34


Legal Matters: We are a defendant in various lawsuits, claims and actions, which arise in the normal course of business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, liquidity or results of operations. However, an unfavorable resolution could have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, liquidity or results of operations in the periods in which the matters are ultimately resolved.
In addition, pursuant to the Master Separation and Distribution Agreement and certain other agreements with Motorola Mobility, Motorola Mobility agreed to indemnify us for certain liabilities, and we agreed to indemnify Motorola Mobility for certain liabilities, in each case for uncapped amounts.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In January 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-05, “Service Concession Arrangements.” The ASU clarifies that an operating entity should not account for a services concession arrangement with a public-sector grantor as a lease if:  (i) the grantor controls or has the ability to modify or approve the services the operating entity must provide, to whom it must provide them, and at what price and (ii) the grantor controls any residual interest in the infrastructure at the end of the arrangement. In addition, the infrastructure used in a service concession arrangement would not be recognized as property, plant and equipment of the operating entity. The ASU is to be applied on a modified retrospective basis to service concession arrangements outstanding upon adoption and will be effective for us beginning January 1, 2015. We are currently assessing the impact of this standard on our consolidated financial statements and footnote disclosures.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers." This new standard will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP. The core principle of the ASU is that an entity should recognize revenue for the transfer of goods or services equal to the amount it expects to receive for those goods and services. The ASU requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and estimates and changes in those estimates. The ASU will be effective for us beginning January 1, 2017, and allows for both retrospective and modified-retrospective methods of adoption. We are in the process of determining the method of adoption we will elect and are currently assessing the impact of this ASU on our consolidated financial statements and footnote disclosures.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Derivative Financial Instruments
At June 28, 2014, we had outstanding foreign exchange contracts with notional amounts totaling $867 million, compared to $837 million outstanding at December 31, 2013. Management believes that these financial instruments should not subject us to undue risk due to foreign exchange movements because gains and losses on these contracts should generally offset gains and losses on the underlying assets, liabilities and transactions, except for the ineffective portions of the instruments, which are charged to Other within Other income (expense) in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.
The following table shows the five largest net notional amounts of the positions to buy or sell foreign currency as of June 28, 2014 and the corresponding positions as of December 31, 2013:

Readers are cautioned that such forward-looking statements are subject to a variety of risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from the statements contained in this Form 10-Q. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements included in: (1) “Management's Discussion and Analysis,” about: (a) our business strategies and expected results, (b) the sale of our Enterprise business to Zebra Technologies and the timing thereof, including the return of proceeds to shareholders in a timely manner subsequent to the close of the transaction, (c) future payments, charges, use of accruals and expected cost-saving benefits associated with our productivity improvement plans, reorganization of business programs, and employee separation costs, (d) our ability and cost to repatriate funds, (e) our ability and cost to access the capital markets at our current ratings, (f) our plans with respect to the level of outstanding debt, (g) the return of capital to shareholders through dividends and/or repurchasing shares, (h) the adequacy of our cash balances to meet current operating requirements, (i) potential contractual damages claims, and (j) the outcome and effect of ongoing and future legal proceedings, (2) “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk,” about the impact of foreign currency exchange risks, (3) “Legal Proceedings,” about the ultimate disposition of pending legal matters, and (4) "Controls and Procedures," about the implementation of our enterprise resource planning systems.  Motorola Solutions undertakes no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement or risk factor, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
Some of the risk factors that affect our business and financial results are discussed in Part I, “Item 1A: Risk Factors” on pages 10 through 21 of our 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K, in Part II, "Item 1A: Risk Factors" on page 31 of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 29, 2014, and in our other SEC filings available for free on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov and on Motorola Solutions' website at www.motorolasolutions.com. We wish to caution the reader that the risk factors discussed in each of these documents and those described in our other Securities and Exchange Commission filings, could cause our actual results to differ materially from those stated in the forward-looking statements.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. Under the supervision and with the participation of our senior management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report (the “Evaluation Date”). Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded as of the Evaluation Date that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective such that the information relating to Motorola Solutions, including our consolidated subsidiaries, required to be disclosed in our Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) reports (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to Motorola Solutions’ management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
(b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting. There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 28, 2014, that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.
We are in the process of a multi-year phased upgrade and consolidation of our enterprise resource planning (“ERP”) systems into a single global platform across our business.  The second and third phases were successfully implemented during the first six months of 2014 with no significant changes to our internal controls over financial reporting.
Continuing to implement the remaining phases of our ERP system on a widespread basis involves significant changes in business processes and extensive organizational training.  A phased approach reduces the risks associated with making these changes.  We believe we are taking the necessary steps to monitor and maintain appropriate internal controls during these transition periods.   Such steps include deploying resources to mitigate internal control risks and performing additional verifications and testing to ensure data integrity.  In connection with the continued implementation of our global ERP system, we expect there will be certain redesigns of our business processes throughout the implementation, some of which may be related to internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures.

Part II—Other Information
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
The Company is a defendant in various suits, claims and investigations that arise in the normal course of business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate disposition of the Company's pending legal proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, liquidity or results of operations. However, an unfavorable resolution could have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, liquidity or results of operations in the periods in which the matters are ultimately resolved, or in the periods in which more information is obtained which changes management's opinion of the ultimate disposition.

Item 1A. Risk Factors
The reader should carefully consider, in connection with the other information in this report, the factors discussed below and in Part I, “Item 1A: Risk Factors” on pages 10 through 21 of the Company’s 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K and in Part II, "Item 1A: Risk Factors" on page 31 of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 29, 2014.
