NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, and U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or U.S. GAAP. However, certain information or footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such SEC rules and regulations. In our opinion, the financial statements include all adjustments, which are of a normal and recurring nature, necessary for the fair presentation of the results of the interim periods presented. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full fiscal year or any future period. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013.

The consolidated financial statements include our financial statements and those of our wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.

Our fiscal year is the 52- or 53-week period ending on the last Saturday in June. Our fiscal 2014 and 2013 are 52-week periods ending on June 28, 2014 and June 29, 2013, respectively. The quarterly fiscal periods presented in this report were 13-week periods for the three months ended December 28, 2013 and December 29, 2012. For ease of presentation, the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been shown as ending on calendar quarter end dates for all annual, interim, and quarterly financial statement captions, unless otherwise indicated.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to revenue recognition, allowance for doubtful accounts, cost of revenue, inventories, loss on purchase commitments, product warranty, share-based compensation costs, provision for income taxes, deferred income tax asset valuation allowances, uncertain tax positions, tax contingencies, goodwill, intangible assets, investments, contingent consideration liability, and loss contingencies. We base our estimates on historical experience, applicable laws and regulations, and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

There are no new accounting pronouncements that are expected to have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

2. Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue from product sales when there is persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred and title has transferred, the price is fixed or determinable, and collection is reasonably assured, which is generally upon shipment of the product. We accrue for estimated sales returns, incentives, and other allowances at the time we recognize revenue. Our products contain embedded firmware and software that allows for further differentiation and customer integration, which together with our ASIC chip, delivers the essential functionality of our products and, as such, software revenue recognition guidance is not applicable.

3. Net Income Per Share

The computation of basic and diluted net income per share was as follows (in thousands, except per share data):

 

     Three Months Ended      Six Months Ended  
     December 31,      December 31,  
     2013      2012      2013      2012

Shares, diluted

     36,059         33,313         35,586         33,739   
  

 

 

    

 

 

    

 

 

    

 

 

 

Net income per share:

           

Basic

   $ 0.51       $ 0.34       $ 1.56       $ 0.52   
  

 

 

    

 

 

    

 

 

    

 

 

 

Diluted

   $ 0.48       $ 0.33       $ 1.47       $ 0.51   
  

 

 

    

 

 

    

 

 

    

 

 

 

Our basic net income per share amounts for each period presented have been computed using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Our diluted net income per share amounts for each period presented include the weighted average effect of potentially dilutive shares. We use the “treasury stock” method to determine the dilutive effect of our stock options, deferred stock units, or DSUs, market stock units, or MSUs, and convertible notes.

Dilutive net income per share amounts do not include the weighted average effect of 315,275 and 5,005,736 share-based awards that were outstanding during the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and 317,438 and 4,037,666 share-based awards that were outstanding during the six months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. These share-based awards were not included in the computation of diluted net income per share because their effect would have been antidilutive.

4. Fair Value

Financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, by level within the fair value hierarchy consisted of the following (in thousands):

In our condensed consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013, money market balances were included in cash and cash equivalents and auction rate securities, or ARS investments, were included in non-current investments. The contingent consideration liability recorded for business combinations was included in other liabilities of which $36.1 million and $8.1 million was included in the non-current portion of other liabilities as of December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013, respectively, and $13.3 million and $196,000 has been included in other current liabilities as of December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013, respectively.

There were no transfers in or out of our Level 1 or 3 assets or liabilities during the three and six months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012.

The fair values of our accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate their carrying values because of the short-term nature of those instruments. In addition, our notes payable have been reclassified to current on our balance sheet as we intend to call the remaining outstanding notes in the next twelve months. The fair value of the notes payable approximate their carrying value. Intangible assets, property and equipment, and goodwill are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis if impairment is indicated.

5. Auction Rate Securities

Our ARS investments have failed to settle in auctions and are not liquid. In the event we need to access these funds prior to their maturity, we will not be able to do so without a loss of principal, unless redeemed by the issuers or a future auction on these investments is successful. During the three and six months ended December 31, 2013, none of our ARS investments were redeemed.

As there are currently no active markets for our various failed ARS investments, we have estimated the fair value as of December 31, 2013 using a trinomial discounted cash flow analysis. The analysis considered, among others, the following factors:

 

    the collateral underlying the security investments;

 

    the creditworthiness of the counterparty;

 

    the timing of expected future cash flows;

 

    the probability of a successful auction in a future period;

 

    the underlying structure of each investment;

 

    the present value of future principal and interest payments discounted at rates considered to reflect current market conditions;

 

    a consideration of the probabilities of default, passing a future auction, or redemption at par for each period; and

 

    estimates of the recovery rates in the event of default for each investment.

When possible, our failed ARS investments were compared to other observable market data or securities with similar characteristics. Our estimate of the fair value of our ARS investments could change materially from period to period based on future market conditions.

Contractual maturities for our ARS investments are generally greater than five years, with fair value of $13.1 million maturing from calendar years 2015 to 2017, $3.2 million maturing from calendar years 2043 to 2045, and $2.0 million having no maturity date. Of our ARS investments, $5.5 million par value are investment grade, and the remaining $18.5 million par value are below investment grade.

The ARS investments in each of the above tables with unrealized losses have been in a continuous unrealized loss position for more than 12 months.

We have accounted for all of our ARS investments as non-current as we are not able to reasonably determine when the ARS markets will recover or be restructured. Based on our ability to access our cash and cash equivalents, our expected operating cash flows, and our other sources of cash, we do not intend to sell the investments, and it is not more likely than not that we will be required to sell the investments before the recovery of the amortized cost basis. We will continue to monitor our ARS investments and evaluate our accounting for these investments quarterly.

8. Product Warranties, Indemnifications, and Contingencies

Product Warranties

We generally warrant our products for a period of 12 months from the date of sale and estimate probable product warranty costs at the time we recognize revenue. Factors that affect our warranty liability include historical and anticipated rates of warranty claims, materials usage, rework, and delivery costs. However, we assess the adequacy of our warranty obligations each reporting period and adjust the accrued warranty liability on the basis of our estimates.

Indemnifications

In connection with certain third-party agreements we have executed in the past, we are obligated to indemnify the third party in connection with any technology infringement by us. We have also entered into indemnification agreements with our officers and directors. Maximum potential future payments cannot be estimated because these agreements do not have a maximum stated liability. However, historical costs related to these indemnification provisions have not been significant. We have not recorded any liability in our consolidated financial statements for such indemnification obligations.

Contingencies

We have in the past and may in the future receive notices from third parties that claim our products infringe their intellectual property rights. We cannot be certain that our technologies and products do not or will not infringe issued patents or other proprietary rights of third parties.

Any infringement claims, with or without merit, could result in significant litigation costs and diversion of management and financial resources, including the payment of damages, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Of the shares delivered, 73,742 shares valued at $3.2 million were withheld to meet statutory minimum tax withholding requirements.

Market Stock Units

Our Amended and Restated 2010 Incentive Compensation Plan provides for the grant of MSU awards, which are a type of DSU award, to our employees, consultants, and directors. An MSU is a promise to deliver shares of our common stock at a future date based on the achievement of market-based performance requirements in accordance with the terms of the MSU grant agreement. We began granting MSUs in November 2012.

We have granted MSUs to our executive officers, which were designed to vest in three tranches with the target quantity for each tranche equal to one-third of the total MSU grant. The first tranche vests based on a one-year performance period; the second tranche vests based on a two-year performance period; and the third tranche vests based on a three-year performance period. Performance is measured based on the achievement of a specified level of total stockholder return, or TSR, relative to the TSR of the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index, or SOX Index. The potential payout ranges from 0% to 200% of the grant target quantity and is adjusted on a two-to-one ratio based on our TSR performance relative to the SOX Index TSR performance using the following formula:

(100% + ([Synaptics TSR - SOX Index TSR] x 2))

Delivery of shares earned, if any, will take place on the dates provided in the applicable MSU grant agreement, assuming the grantee is still an employee, consultant, or director of our company at the end of the applicable performance period. On the delivery date, we withhold shares to cover statutory minimum tax withholding by delivering a net quantity of shares. Until delivery of shares, the grantee has no rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares underlying the MSU award.

During the six months ended December 31, 2013, MSU activity, including MSUs granted, delivered, and forfeited, and the balance and aggregate intrinsic value of MSUs as of December 31, 2013 was as follows:

 

     MSU

     120,330      $ 6,068   
  

 

 

   

 

 

 

As a result of the Synaptics TSR exceeding the SOX Index TSR by 24 percentage points, we delivered 148% of the targeted shares underlying the November 2012 MSU grants, or 10,782 additional shares. Of the shares delivered, 15,148 shares valued at $670,000 were withheld to meet statutory minimum tax withholding requirements.

We valued the MSUs using the Monte Carlo simulation model and amortize the compensation expense over the three-year performance and service period by tranche. The grant date fair value for MSUs granted during the six months ended December 31, 2013 was $60.62 per MSU. The unrecognized share-based compensation cost of our outstanding MSUs was approximately $5.7 million as of December 31, 2013, which will be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 1.6 years. The aggregate intrinsic value was determined using the closing price of our common stock on December 27, 2013 of $50.43.

10. Income Taxes

We account for income taxes under the asset and liability method. We consider the operating earnings of our foreign subsidiaries to be indefinitely invested outside the United States. Accordingly, no provision has been made for the federal, state, or foreign taxes that may result from future remittances of undistributed earnings of our foreign subsidiaries.

The provision for income taxes of $5.2 million and $4.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, represented estimated federal, foreign, and state income taxes. The effective tax rate for the three months ended December 31, 2013 was 23.1% and diverged from the combined federal and state statutory rate primarily because of foreign income taxed at lower tax rates and the federal research credit, partially offset by foreign withholding taxes, nondeductible amortization and contingent consideration, and net unrecognized tax benefits associated with qualified stock options. The effective tax rate for the three months ended December 31, 2012 was 26.6% and diverged from the combined federal and state statutory rate primarily because of foreign income taxed at lower tax rates, partially offset by foreign withholding taxes, net unrecognized tax benefit associated with qualified stock options, and a slight increase in the liability for unrecognized tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions.

The provision for income taxes of $17.9 million and $6.5 million for the six months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, represented estimated federal, foreign, and state income taxes. The effective tax rate for the six months ended December 31, 2013 was 25.5% and diverged from the combined federal and state statutory rate primarily because of foreign income taxed at lower tax rates and the federal research credit, partially offset by foreign withholding taxes, nondeductible amortization and contingent consideration, and net unrecognized tax benefits associated with qualified stock options. The effective tax rate for the six months ended December 31, 2012 was 27.6% and diverged from the combined federal and state statutory rate primarily because of foreign income taxed at lower tax rates, partially offset by foreign withholding taxes, net unrecognized tax benefit associated with qualified stock options, and a slight increase in the liability for unrecognized tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions.

Unrecognized Tax Benefits

The total liability for gross unrecognized tax benefits increased $984,000 during the six months ended December 31, 2013 to $9.2 million from $8.2 million at June 30, 2013 and was included in other liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. All of this amount would affect the effective tax rate on income from continuing operations, if recognized. The balance of interest and penalties accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2013 was $938,000 and increased by $26,000 from June 30, 2013. We classify interest and penalties as components of income tax expense.

In May 2011, we were notified by the Internal Revenue Service, or the Service, that our fiscal 2003 through 2006 and fiscal 2008 through 2010 would be subject to examination. The early periods were being audited in connection with a mandatory review of tax refunds in excess of $2.0 million when we carried back our fiscal 2008 net operating loss. In March 2013, we received the Revenue Agent’s Report resolving our examination with the Service and paid an assessment that had no material impact to our condensed consolidated financial statements. Our case is pending review by the Joint Committee on Taxation, which we anticipate to conclude in our fiscal 2014. Any prospective adjustments to our unrecognized tax benefits will be recorded as an increase or decrease to income tax expense and cause a corresponding change to our effective tax rate. Accordingly, our effective tax rate could fluctuate materially from period to period.

On January 2, 2013, President Barack Obama signed into law The American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2013, or the Act. The Act extends the research credit for two years retroactively from January 1, 2012 through December 31, 2013. As such, we will only recognize six months of tax benefit in our current fiscal year.

Our major tax jurisdictions are the United States, California, and Hong Kong SAR, and fiscal 2003 onward remain subject to examination by one or more of these jurisdictions.

11. Segment, Customers, and Geographic Information

We operate in one segment: the development, marketing, and sale of interactive user interface solutions for electronic devices and products. We generate our revenue from two broad product categories: the mobile product market and the personal computing, or PC, market. The mobile product market accounted for 65% and 57% of net revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and 69% and 54% of net revenue for the six months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

12. Comprehensive Income

Our comprehensive income generally consists of net income plus the effect of unrealized gains and losses on our investments, primarily due to temporary changes in market value of certain of our ARS investments. In addition, we recognize the noncredit portion of other-than-temporary impairment on debt securities in other comprehensive income. We recognize foreign currency remeasurement adjustments and transaction gains and losses in our condensed consolidated statements of income as the U.S. dollar is the functional currency of our foreign entities.

13. Acquisition of Validity

On November 7, 2013, or the Acquisition Date, we acquired 100% of the outstanding common and preferred shares and voting interest of Validity. This acquisition has been accounted for as a business combination. The results of Validity’s operations have been included in the consolidated financial statements since the Acquisition Date. Validity was a privately held company, which was a leading provider of capacitive-based biometric fingerprint authentication solutions for notebook applications. Validity had begun to target its biometric fingerprint authentication solutions for smartphone and tablet applications and had one revenue-generating design win with one customer as of the Acquisition Date. We believe this acquisition brings together substantial synergies through the combination of the Validity technologies and workforce and our financial stability, scale, infrastructure, customer relationships, and technology delivery performance record. With this acquisition, we expect to gain access to the fast growing biometrics market, significantly expanding our market opportunity and underscoring our commitment to making smart devices easier to use.

The Acquisition Date fair value of the consideration transferred totaled $127.8 million, which consisted of the following (in thousands):

 

Cash

   $ 19,985   

Shares issued

     70,280   

Contingent consideration

     37,499   
  

 

 

 
   $ 127,764   
  

 

 

 

In connection with the acquisition, we issued 1,577,559 shares to the former Validity shareholders valued at $70.3 million based on the Acquisition Date closing price of our common stock of $44.55. The contingent consideration arrangement requires us to make earn-out consideration payments of up to $162.5 million, which is based primarily on sales, during certain time periods, ending on March 31, 2016, of certain products embodying Validity fingerprint sensor technology. The earn-out consideration will be payable in cash, except for the initial $16.3 million of contingent consideration, which will be satisfied by delivery of 338,427 shares of our common stock, based on the transaction reference price of $48.278. Under certain conditions, we may be required to deliver additional shares to ensure that at least 40% of the value of consideration transferred to the former Validity shareholders is paid in shares of our common stock.

The estimated fair value of the contingent consideration arrangement as of the Acquisition Date was $37.5 million. We estimated the fair value of the contingent consideration using a probability-weighted discounted cash flow model. These fair value measurements were based on significant inputs not observable in the market and thus represent a Level 3 measurement. The key assumptions in applying the probability-weighted discounted cash flow model was a 23% discount rate under three unequally weighted cash flow scenarios reviewed by senior management and our board to assess the transaction. The contingent consideration will be remeasured to fair value in future reporting periods and any adjustments will be recorded through earnings.

Of the $76.4 million of acquired intangible assets, $57.0 million was assigned to in-process research and development and will be amortized over an estimated useful life to be determined at the date the underlying projects are determined to be substantively complete, $18.6 million was assigned to developed technology and will be amortized over an estimated useful life of 2-3 years, and $750,000 was assigned to backlog and was amortized during the quarter ended December 31, 2013. In-process research and development refers to the next generation fingerprint authentication technology designed for the mobile product and PC markets and developed technology refers to the established fingerprint authentication technology initially designed for and sold into the PC market and adapted for the mobile product market. We anticipate that all in-process research and development projects will be substantially completed within the next six to twelve months. The value of goodwill reflects the anticipated synergies of the combined operations and workforce of Validity as of the Acquisition Date.

As of December 31, 2013, our purchase price allocation is preliminary and has not been finalized. Additional information, which existed as of the Acquisition Date but is yet unknown to us, may become known to us during the remainder of the measurement period, which will not exceed 12 months from the Acquisition Date. Changes to amounts recorded as assets or liabilities will be recorded as retrospective adjustments to the provisional amounts recognized as of the Acquisition Date and may result in a corresponding adjustment to goodwill.

In connection with the acquisition, we recognized $1.2 million of indemnification assets, consisting of $700,000 for income tax and $500,000 for service tax. These amounts represent estimated tax settlement plus interest and penalties. Under the merger agreement, we are indemnified for any additional tax liability incurred (as well as other reasonable expenses) before the acquisition.

The Validity fingerprint authentication products are an extension of our existing interactive user interface solution products and are marketed to our existing customer base. We intend to report these products based on device type. Accordingly, we continue to operate in one segment and therefore the goodwill applies to a company-wide reporting unit. None of the goodwill is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.

We recognized approximately $2.0 million of legal and consulting costs that were expensed in fiscal 2014. These costs are included in our consolidated statements of income as selling, general, and administrative expenses.

Prior to the acquisition, we did not have a preexisting relationship with Validity.

The condensed consolidated financial statements include $4.3 million revenue and approximately $2.5 million of operating loss of Validity from the date of the acquisition through December 31, 2013.

15. Subsequent Events

On January 2, 2014, we announced that our 0.75% convertible senior subordinated notes due 2024, or Notes, are convertible during the first calendar quarter of 2014 as a result of our common stock price exceeding the conversion trigger for 20 of the last 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the calendar quarter ended December 31, 2013. As we previously made a principal conversion settlement election to settle the principal in cash, the principal amount of any Notes tendered for conversion will be settled in cash following the cash settlement averaging period as defined in the Indenture.

On January 21, 2014, our board authorized us to call for redemption any remaining outstanding Notes, which have not been submitted for conversion or retired. Accordingly, Notes have been classified as a short-term liability on the balance sheet as we intend to call the remaining outstanding Notes within the next 12 months.

On January 22, 2014, we purchased a 5.35 acre site, with two single story buildings totaling approximately 80,000 square feet, located adjacent to our San Jose headquarters for approximately $10.1 million in cash. We plan to retrofit one of the two buildings, or approximately 51,000 square feet, to support expansion of our San Jose-based employee population.

On February 3, 2014, we issued a Notice of Redemption setting April 2, 2014 as the redemption date upon which we will redeem 100% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, of any remaining outstanding Notes. Noteholders have the right to convert any of their Notes that we have called for redemption at any time prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on March 31, 2014.

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

Forward-Looking Statements and Factors That May Affect Results

You should read the following discussion and analysis in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and with our audited consolidated financial statements and notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013.

In addition to the historical information contained in this report, this report may contain forward-looking statements, including those related to our operating model and strategies; our market penetration and market share in the mobile product applications and PC product applications markets; competitive factors in the mobile product applications and PC product applications markets; revenue from the mobile product applications and PC product applications markets; industry estimates of growth rates of these markets; average selling prices; product design mix; manufacturing costs; gross margins; new product solution introductions; customer relationships; research and development expenses; selling, general, and administrative expenses; liquidity and anticipated cash requirements; our ability to provide local sales, operational, and engineering support to customers; our assessment of the combination of the added value we bring to our OEM customers’ products in meeting their custom design requirements and the impact of our ongoing cost-improvement programs; our expectations regarding the timing of the conclusion of an ongoing appeal of a tax audit; and our expectations regarding tax benefits for the federal research credit. These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially.

We caution that these statements are qualified by various factors that may affect future results, including the following: economic conditions; changes in the market for our products and the success of our customers’ products; our success in moving products from the design phase into the manufacturing phase; changes in the competitive environment; infringement claims; warranty obligations related to product failures; the failure of key technologies to deliver commercially acceptable performance; our dependence on certain key markets; penetration into new markets; the absence of both long-term purchase and supply commitments; and our lengthy development and product acceptance cycles. This report should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013, including particularly Item 1A “Risk Factors” therein.

Overview

We are a leading worldwide developer and supplier of custom-designed human interface solutions that enable people to interact more easily and intuitively with a wide variety of mobile computing, communications, entertainment, and other electronic devices. We believe our results to date reflect the combination of our customer focus, the strength of our intellectual property, and our engineering know-how, which allow us to develop or engineer products that meet the demanding design specifications of OEMs.

Many of our customers have manufacturing operations in China, and many of our OEM customers have established design centers in that region. With our expanded global presence, including offices in China, Finland, Hong Kong, India, Japan, Korea, Switzerland, Taiwan, and the United States, we are well positioned to provide local sales, operational, and engineering support services to our existing customers, as well as potential new customers, on a global basis.

Our manufacturing operations are based on a variable cost model in which we outsource all of our production requirements and generally drop ship our products directly to our customers from our contract manufacturers’ facilities, reducing the need for significant capital expenditures and allowing us to minimize our investment in inventories. This approach requires us to work closely with our contract manufacturers and semiconductor foundries to ensure adequate production capacity to meet our forecasted volume requirements. We provide our contract manufacturers with six-month rolling forecasts and issue purchase orders based on our anticipated requirements for the next 90 days. However, we do not have any long-term supply contracts with any of our contract manufacturers. We use three third-party semiconductor wafer manufacturers to supply us with silicon wafers integrating our proprietary design specifications. The completed silicon wafers are forwarded to third-party package and test processors for further processing into die and packaged ASICs, as applicable, which are then utilized in our custom interface products or processed as our ASIC-based solutions. In certain cases, we rely on a single source or a limited number of suppliers to provide other key components of our products. Our cost of revenue includes all costs associated with the production of our products, including materials, logistics, amortization of intangibles related to acquired developed technology, manufacturing, assembly, and test costs paid to third-party manufacturers and related overhead costs associated with our indirect manufacturing operations personnel. Additionally, we charge losses on inventory purchase obligations and write-downs to reduce the carrying value of obsolete, slow moving, and non-usable inventory to net realizable value (including warranty costs) to cost of revenue.

Table of Contents

Our gross margin generally reflects the combination of the added value we bring to our OEM customers’ products in meeting their custom design requirements and the impact of our ongoing cost-improvement programs. These cost-improvement programs include reducing materials and component costs and implementing design and process improvements.

Our research and development expenses include costs for supplies and materials related to product development as well as the engineering costs incurred to design ASICs and human interface solutions for OEM customers prior to and after their commitment to incorporate those solutions into their products. These expenses have generally increased, reflecting our continuing commitment to the technological and design innovation required to maintain our position in our existing markets and to adapt our existing technologies or develop new technologies for new markets.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses include expenses related to sales, marketing, and administrative personnel; internal sales and outside sales representatives’ commissions; market and usability research; outside legal, accounting, and consulting costs; and other marketing and sales activities. These expenses have generally increased, primarily reflecting incremental staffing and related support costs associated with our business acquisitions, increased business levels, growth in our existing markets, and penetration into new markets.

Change in contingent consideration is a cost associated with the acquisition of a business in which an earn-out arrangement was entered into between us and a selling party. We entered into earn-out arrangements in connection with our acquisitions of both Pacinian and Validity. The earn-out arrangements are designed to deliver more purchase price consideration to the selling parties, provided the acquired business delivers on the negotiated earn-out terms. Under these earn-out arrangements, upon satisfaction of certain financial metrics and other conditions, additional cash will be delivered to the former Pacinian shareholders and additional cash and shares of our common stock will be delivered to the former Validity shareholders. Accordingly, we anticipate that changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration could result in volatility in our operating results due to changes in our stock price, the degree of success of current and future projects incorporating both the developed technology and in-process technology, and changes in the discount rates used to determine the fair value of the contingent consideration over time.

Net Revenue.

Net revenue was $205.8 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2013 compared with $143.0 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2012, an increase of $62.7 million, or 43.8%. Of our second quarter fiscal 2014 net revenue, $133.6 million, or 64.9%, was from mobile product applications and $72.2 million, or 35.1%, was from PC product applications. Included in our second quarter fiscal 2014 PC and mobile product applications revenue was $4.3 million of revenue from biometric fingerprint authentication products. The increase in net revenue for the quarter ended December 31, 2013 was attributable to an increase in net revenue from mobile product applications and an increase in PC product applications, as well as our new biometric fingerprint authentication products resulting from an acquisition (see Note 13 to the condensed consolidated financial statements). Net revenue from mobile product applications increased primarily as a result of higher unit sales in the quarter, reflecting an increase in our market share. Net revenue from PC product applications increased primarily as a result of higher unit sales in the quarter, reflecting a combination of increased market share and the addition of PC based biometric fingerprint authentication solutions.

Net revenue was $428.4 million for the six months ended December 31, 2013 compared with $270.1 million for the six months ended December 31, 2012, an increase of $158.3 million, or 58.6%. Of our first six months of fiscal 2014 net revenue, $296.3 million, or 69.2%, was from mobile product applications and $132.1 million, or 30.8%, was from PC product applications. Included in our first six months of fiscal 2014 PC and mobile product revenue was $4.3 million of revenue from biometric fingerprint authentication products. The increase in net revenue for the six months ended December 31, 2013 was attributable to an increase in net revenue from mobile product applications and an increase in PC product applications, as well as our new biometric fingerprint authentication products resulting from an acquisition. Net revenue from mobile product applications increased primarily as a result of higher unit sales in the six month period, reflecting an increase in our market share. Net revenue from PC product applications increased primarily as a result of higher unit sales in the six-month period, reflecting a combination of increased market share and the addition of PC-based biometric fingerprint authentication solutions.

Based on industry estimates of unit shipments, the mobile smartphone market is anticipated to increase approximately 20%, the tablet market is anticipated to increase 22%, and the notebook market is anticipated to decrease approximately 7% in calendar year 2014 compared with calendar year 2013.

Gross Margin.

Gross margin as a percentage of net revenue was 45.9%, or $94.5 million, for the quarter ended December 31, 2013 compared with 48.3%, or $69.0 million, for the quarter ended December 31, 2012. The 240 basis point decline in gross margin was primarily due to amortization of acquired intangibles incurred in the current quarter as well as an unfavorable mix of lower margin revenue.

Gross margin as a percentage of net revenue was 47.6%, or $203.8 million, for the six months ended December 31, 2013 compared with 48.0%, or $129.6 million, for the six months ended December 31, 2012. The 40 basis point decline in gross margin was primarily due to amortization of acquired intangibles incurred in the current quarter as well as an unfavorable mix of lower margin revenue.

We continuously introduce new product solutions, many of which have life cycles of less than a year. Further, as we sell our capacitive sensing technology in designs that are generally unique or specific to an OEM customer’s application, gross margin varies on a product-by-product basis, making our cumulative gross margin a blend of our product specific designs. As a virtual manufacturer, our gross margin percentage is generally not impacted materially by our shipment volume. We charge losses on inventory purchase obligations and write-downs to reduce the carrying value of obsolete, slow moving, and non-usable inventory to net realizable value (including warranty costs) to cost of revenue.

Operating Expenses.

Research and Development Expenses. Research and development expenses increased $11.7 million to $45.9 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2013 compared with the quarter ended December 31, 2012. The increase in research and development expenses primarily reflected a $5.7 million increase in employee-related costs, which included our annual merit increase, additional headcount associated with an expanded product portfolio and a recent acquisition, a $3.9 million increase in infrastructure-related costs, and a $1.2 million increase in temporary employee expenses.

Research and development expenses increased $19.3 million to $86.4 million for the six months ended December 31, 2013 compared with the six months ended December 31, 2012. The increase in research and development expenses primarily reflected a $9.6 million increase in employee-related costs, which included our annual merit increase, an increase in our incentive compensation accrual, additional headcount associated with an expanded product portfolio and a recent acquisition, a $6.7 million increase in infrastructure-related costs, $1.6 million increase in temporary employee expenses, and a $1.0 million increase in travel and entertainment expenses.

Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general, and administrative expenses increased $3.8 million to $22.8 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2013 compared with the quarter ended December 31, 2012. The increase in selling, general, and administrative expenses primarily reflected a $2.4 million increase in employee-related costs, which included our annual merit increase, additional headcount related to a recent acquisition, a $782,000 increase in temporary employee expenses, a $628,000 increase in travel and entertainment expenses, and a $618,000 increase in professional fees, primarily associated with acquisition-related costs, partially offset by a $809,000 decrease in share-based compensation.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses increased $6.1 million to $44.0 million for the six months ended December 31, 2013 compared with the six months ended December 31, 2012. The increase in selling, general, and administrative expenses primarily reflected a $3.9 million increase in employee-related costs, which included our annual merit increase, and additional headcount including some new employees related to a recent acquisition, a $1.8 million increase in professional fees, primarily associated with acquisition-related costs, and a $1.4 million increase in temporary employee expenses, a $1.3 million in travel and entertainment expenses, partially offset by a $2.3 million decrease in share-based compensation.

Provision for Income Taxes.

We account for income taxes under the asset and liability method. We consider the operating earnings of our foreign subsidiaries to be indefinitely invested outside the United States. Accordingly, no provision has been made for the federal, state, or foreign taxes that may result from future remittances of undistributed earnings of our foreign subsidiaries.

The provision for income taxes of $5.2 million and $4.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, represented estimated federal, foreign, and state income taxes. The effective tax rate for the three months ended December 31, 2013 was 23.1% and diverged from the combined federal and state statutory rate primarily because of foreign income taxed at lower tax rates and the federal research credit, partially offset by foreign withholding taxes, nondeductible amortization, and net unrecognized tax benefits associated with qualified stock options. The effective tax rate for the three months ended December 31, 2012 was 26.6% and diverged from the combined federal and state statutory rate primarily because of foreign income taxed at lower tax rates, partially offset by foreign withholding taxes, net unrecognized tax benefit associated with qualified stock options, and a slight increase in the liability for unrecognized tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions.

The provision for income taxes of $17.9 million and $6.5 million for the six months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, represented estimated federal, foreign, and state income taxes. The effective tax rate for the six months ended December 31, 2013 was 25.5% and diverged from the combined federal and state statutory rate primarily because of foreign income taxed at lower tax rates and the federal research credit, partially offset by foreign withholding taxes, nondeductible amortization, and net unrecognized tax benefits associated with qualified stock options. The effective tax rate for the six months ended December 31, 2012 was 27.6% and diverged from the combined federal and state statutory rate primarily because of foreign income taxed at lower tax rates, partially offset by foreign withholding taxes, net unrecognized tax benefit associated with qualified stock options, and a slight increase in the liability for unrecognized tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions.

In May 2011, we were notified by the Internal Revenue Service, or the Service, that our fiscal 2003 through 2006 and fiscal 2008 through 2010 would be subject to examination. The early periods were being audited in connection with a mandatory review of tax refunds in excess of $2.0 million when we carried back our fiscal 2008 net operating loss. In March 2013, we received the Revenue Agent’s Report resolving our examination with the Service and paid an assessment that had no material impact to our condensed consolidated financial statements. Our case is pending review by the Joint Committee on Taxation, which we anticipate to conclude in our fiscal 2014. Any prospective adjustments to our unrecognized tax benefits will be recorded as an increase or decrease to income tax expense and cause a corresponding change to our effective tax rate. Accordingly, our effective tax rate could fluctuate materially from period to period.

On January 2, 2013, President Barack Obama signed into law The American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2013, or the Act. The Act extends the research credit for two years retroactively from January 1, 2012 through December 31, 2013. As such, we will only recognize six months of tax benefit in our current fiscal year.

Our major tax jurisdictions are the United States, California, and Hong Kong SAR, and fiscal 2003 onward remain subject to examination by one or more of these jurisdictions.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our cash and cash equivalents were $369.4 million as of December 31, 2013 compared with $355.3 million as of June 30, 2013, an increase of $14.1 million. The increase primarily reflected the combination of $85.8 million provided from operating cash flows and $39.2 million of proceeds from the issuance of shares, partially offset by $70.3 million used to repurchase 1,663,779 shares of our common stock, $19.6 million used for the acquisition of a business, and $17.1 million used for the purchase of property and equipment. We consider earnings of our foreign subsidiaries indefinitely invested overseas and have made no provision for income or withholding taxes that may result from a future repatriation of those earnings. As of December 31, 2013, $314.4 million of cash and cash equivalents was held by our foreign subsidiaries. If these funds are needed for our operations in the United States, we would be required to accrue and pay U.S. federal, foreign, and state taxes to repatriate these funds.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities. Operating activities during the six months ended December 31, 2013 generated net cash of $85.8 million compared with $44.9 million of net cash generated during the six months ended December 31, 2012. For the six months ended December 31, 2013, net cash provided by operating activities was primarily attributable to net income of $52.3 million plus adjustments for non-cash charges of $35.9 million, and a $2.4 million net change in operating assets and liabilities. The net change in operating assets and liabilities was primarily attributable to a $13.2 million decrease in accounts payable, a $4.1 million increase in other assets, and a $3.5 million increase in prepaid expenses and other current assets, partially offset by a $19.3 million decrease in accounts receivable. From June 30, 2013 to December 30, 2013, our days sales outstanding remained at 58 days and our inventory turns declined from 9 to 8.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities. Investing activities during the six months ended December 31, 2013 used net cash of $19.6 million for the acquisition of a business and $17.1 million for purchases of property and equipment compared with $20.9 million net cash used for purchases of property and equipment and $5.0 million for the acquisition of a business during the six months ended December 31, 2012.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities. Net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended December 31, 2013 was $34.9 million compared with $33.6 million for the six months ended December 31, 2012. Net cash used in financing activities for the six months ended December 31, 2013 primarily included $70.3 million used to repurchase 1,663,779 shares of our common stock, partially offset by proceeds from issuance of shares of our common stock under our employee equity programs of $39.2 million.

Common Stock Repurchase Program. Our board has cumulatively authorized $620.0 million for our stock repurchase program, expiring in October 2015. The program authorizes us to purchase our common stock in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, depending upon market conditions and other factors. The number of shares purchased and the timing of purchases is based on the level of our cash balances, general business and market conditions, and other factors, including alternative investment opportunities. Common stock purchased under this program is held as treasury stock. From April 2005 through December 31, 2013, we purchased 19,047,711 shares of our common stock in the open market for an aggregate cost of $530.4 million. Treasury shares purchased prior to August 28, 2008 were not subject to the stock split on that date. As of December 31, 2013, we had $89.6 million remaining under our common stock repurchase program.

Bank Credit Facility. We maintain a $75.0 million working capital line of credit with Wells Fargo Bank. The Wells Fargo Bank revolving line of credit, which expires on September 1, 2014, provides for an interest rate equal to the prime lending rate or 150 basis points above LIBOR, depending on whether we choose a variable or fixed rate, respectively. We had not borrowed any amounts under the line of credit as of December 31, 2013.

$100 Million Shelf Registration. We have registered an aggregate of $100.0 million of common stock and preferred stock for issuance in connection with acquisitions, which shares generally will be freely tradable after their issuance under Rule 145 of the Securities Act unless held by an affiliate of the acquired company, in which case such shares will be subject to the volume and manner of sale restrictions of Rule 144.

Liquidity and Capital Resources. We believe our existing cash and cash equivalents and anticipated cash flows from operating activities will be sufficient to meet our working capital and other cash requirements for at least the next 12 months, including our obligations associated with the acquisition of Validity and the purchase of two new buildings. Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including our revenue, the timing and extent of spending to support product development efforts, costs related to protecting our intellectual property, the expansion of sales and marketing activities, the timing of introductions of new products and enhancements to existing products, the costs to ensure access to adequate manufacturing capacity, the costs of maintaining sufficient space or renovating recently acquired building space for our expanding workforce, the continuing market acceptance of our product solutions, our common stock repurchase program, and the amount and timing of our investments in, or acquisitions of, other technologies or companies. Further equity or debt financing may not be available to us on acceptable terms or at all. If sufficient funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, our ability to take advantage of business opportunities or to respond to competitive pressures could be limited or severely constrained.

Our non-current investments consist of ARS investments, which have failed to settle in auctions. These investments are not liquid, and in the event we need to access these funds, we will not be able to do so without a loss of principal, unless redeemed by the issuers or a future auction on these investments is successful.

Based on our ability to access our cash and cash equivalents, our expected operating cash flows, and our other sources of cash, we do not anticipate the lack of liquidity on these investments will affect our ability to operate our business as usual. Further, we do not anticipate the need to repatriate any undistributed earnings of our foreign subsidiaries to meet our working capital and other cash requirements.

(1) Purchase obligations and other commitments include payments due for contingent consideration, a long-term services agreement and inventory purchase obligations with contract manufacturers.

In connection with the acquisition of Validity in November 2013, we entered into a contingent consideration arrangement. As of December 31, 2013, we may owe up to $162.5 million of additional consideration to the former Validity stockholders based on unit sales through March 2016. The estimated fair value of the contingent consideration liability as of December 31, 2013 was $40.7 million.

In connection with the acquisition of Pacinian in June 2012, we entered into a contingent consideration arrangement. As of December 31, 2013, we may owe up to $10.0 million of additional consideration to the former Pacinian stockholders based on unit sales of products utilizing ThinTouch technology through June 2016. The estimated fair value of the contingent consideration liability as of December 31, 2013 was $8.7 million.

The amounts in the table above exclude unrecognized tax benefits of $9.2 million. As of December 31, 2013, we were unable to make a reasonably reliable estimate of when cash settlement with a taxing authority may occur in connection with our gross unrecognized tax benefit.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Our market risk has not changed materially from the interest rate and foreign currency exchange risks disclosed in Item 7A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

As of the end of the period covered by this report, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have reviewed and evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, which included inquiries made to certain other of our employees. Based on their evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have each concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are designed and are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure and are effective and sufficient to ensure that we record, process, summarize, and report information required to be disclosed by us in our periodic reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, within the time periods specified by the SEC’s rules and forms.

During the fiscal quarter covered by this report, there have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
