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 years 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 March 29, 2014 and March 30, 2013. 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 allow for further differentiation and customer integration, which together with our ASIC chip, deliver the essential functionality of our products and, as such, software revenue recognition guidance is not applicable.

Our basic net income/(loss) 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/(loss) 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/(loss) per share amounts do not include the weighted average effect of 2,481,307 share-based compensation awards and convertible notes outstanding, and shares issuable for settlement of contingent consideration determined to be payable during the three months ended March 31, 2014, 1,055,896 share-based awards that were outstanding during the three months ended March 31, 2013, and 356,878 and 3,025,632 share-based awards that were outstanding during the nine months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. These share-based awards were not included in the computation of diluted net income/(loss) 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 March 31, 2014 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 $60.8 million and $8.1 million was included in the non-current portion of other liabilities as of March 31, 2014 and June 30, 2013, respectively, and $41.6 million and $196,000 was included in other current liabilities as of March 31, 2014 and June 30, 2013, respectively.

In connection with the acquisition of Validity Sensors, Inc., or Validity (see Note 15), we entered into a contingent consideration arrangement and may owe up to $162.5 million of additional consideration to the former Validity stockholders and option holders based on sales of products utilizing Validity technology through March 2016.
In connection with the acquisition of Pacinian we entered into a contingent consideration arrangement, and subsequently paid $5.0 million of additional consideration to the former Pacinian stockholders upon customer acceptance of a ThinTouch product. As of March 31, 2014, we may owe up to $10.0 million of additional consideration to the former Pacinian stockholders based on sales of products utilizing ThinTouch technology through June 2016.
There were no transfers in or out of our Level 1 or 3 assets or liabilities during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013.
The fair values of our accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate their carrying values because of the short-term nature of those instruments. 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 nine months ended March 31, 2014, 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 March 31, 2014 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. |

Table of Contents
When possible, our 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.
Our ARS investments include $13.4 million fair value maturing from calendar years 2015 to 2017, $3.2 million fair value maturing from calendar years 2043 to 2045, and $2.0 million fair value with 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 various types of ARS investments we held as of March 31, 2014, including the original cost basis, other-than-temporary impairment included in retained earnings, new cost basis, unrealized gain/(loss), and fair value, consisted of the following (in thousands):

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.

7. Property and Equipment
During the third quarter of fiscal 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 allocated $5.4 million of the cost to land and the remaining $4.7 million to buildings. 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. The second building is leased to a tenant through March 2016, with an option for the tenant to renew the lease for an additional five years.

9. 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 agreements, we are obligated to indemnify the counter-party against third-party claims alleging infringement of certain intellectual property rights 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.
11
Table of Contents
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.
10. Notes Payable Conversion
During the third quarter of fiscal 2014, we announced that our 0.75% convertible senior subordinated notes due 2024, or Notes, were convertible during the quarter 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 Notes tendered for conversion will be settled in cash following the cash settlement averaging period as defined in the Indenture and we elected to settle the excess conversion value in shares. During the third quarter, we also issued a Notice of Redemption setting April 2, 2014 as the redemption date upon which we would redeem 100% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, of any remaining outstanding Notes. Noteholders had the right to convert any of their Notes that we had called for redemption at any time prior to 5:00 p.m., Eastern Standard Time, on March 31, 2014. As of March 31, 2014, the entire $2.3 million principal amount of outstanding notes had been properly tendered for conversion and all but $46,000 principal amount of the Notes were settled in the March quarter. In April and May 2014, following the cash settlement averaging periods, we will settle the remaining $46,000 principal amount of the Notes.

Of the shares delivered, 118,025 shares valued at $5.7 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))
13
Table of Contents
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 nine months ended March 31, 2014, MSU activity, including MSUs granted, delivered, and forfeited, and the balance and aggregate intrinsic value of MSUs as of March 31, 2014 was as follows:

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 on a straight-line basis. The grant date fair value for MSUs granted during the nine months ended March 31, 2014 was $60.62 per MSU. The unrecognized share-based compensation cost of our outstanding MSUs was approximately $5.1 million as of March 31, 2014, which will be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 1.4 years. The aggregate intrinsic value was determined using the closing price of our common stock on March 28, 2014 of $58.20.

12. 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/(benefit) for income taxes of $4.4 million and ($12.6) million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, represented estimated federal, foreign, and state income taxes. The provision/(benefit) for income taxes recorded in interim periods is recorded by applying the estimated annual effective tax rate to year-to-date income/(loss) before income taxes, excluding the effects of significant unusual or infrequently occurring discrete items and the change in contingent consideration liability related to the Validity acquisition which is not yet reliably estimable. The tax effects of discrete items and the change in the Validity contingent consideration liability are recorded in the same period that the related item is reported and resulted in the difference between the actual effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and March 31, 2013, and the estimated annual effective tax rates for those periods of 29.3% and 25.2%, respectively. The Companys annual effective tax rate diverged from the combined U.S. 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, contingent consideration, and net unrecognized tax benefits associated with qualified stock options. Discrete items recognized in the three months ended March 31, 2014 included additional research and development credits net of an increase in unrecognized tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions related to prior fiscal years and tax benefits realized from stock-based compensation. Discrete items recognized in the three months ended March 31, 2013 included additional research and development credits resulting from the retroactive restatement of the federal research and development credit, a decrease in unrecognized tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions, which included the remeasurement of a prior year tax position, and tax benefits realized from stock-based compensation.
The provision/(benefit) for income taxes of $22.3 million and ($6.1) million for the nine months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, represented estimated federal, foreign, and state income taxes. The provision/(benefit) for income taxes recorded in interim periods is recorded by applying the estimated annual effective tax rate to year-to-date income/(loss) before income taxes, excluding the effects of significant unusual or infrequently occurring discrete items and the change in contingent consideration liability related to the Validity acquisition which is not yet reliably estimable. The tax effects of discrete items and the change in the Validity contingent consideration liability are recorded in the same period that the related item is reported and resulted in the difference between the actual effective tax rate for the nine months ended March 31, 2014 and March 31, 2013, and the estimated annual effective tax rates for those periods of 29.3% and 25.2%, respectively. The Companys annual effective tax rate diverged from the combined U.S. 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, contingent consideration, and net unrecognized tax benefits associated with qualified stock options. Discrete items recognized in the nine months ended March 31, 2014 included additional research and development credits net of an increase in unrecognized tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions related to prior fiscal years and tax benefits realized from stock-based compensation. Discrete items recognized in the nine months ended March 31, 2013 included additional research and development credits resulting from the retroactive restatement of the federal research and development credit and a decrease in unrecognized tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions, which included the remeasurement of a prior year tax position and the recognition of a prior year tax position due to an expired statute, and tax benefits realized from stock-based compensation.
Unrecognized Tax Benefits
The total liability for gross unrecognized tax benefits increased $2.2 million during the nine months ended March 31, 2014 to $10.4 million from $8.2 million at June 30, 2013 and was included in other liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. If recognized, this total amount would affect the effective tax rate on income from continuing operations. The balance of interest and penalties accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits as of March 31, 2014 was $1.0 million and increased by $101,000 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 which resulted when we carried back our fiscal 2008 net operating loss. In March 2013, we received the Revenue Agents Report resolving our examination with the Service and paid an assessment that had no material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements. Our case is pending review by the Joint Committee on Taxation, which we anticipate will conclude in our fiscal 2015. 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 extended the Federal 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 from the research tax credit 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.

13. 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 74% and 64% of net revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and 71% and 58% of net revenue for the nine months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

14. Comprehensive Income/(Loss)
Our comprehensive income/(loss) generally consists of net income/(loss) 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.
15. 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 Validitys operations have been included in our 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 of our common stock to the former Validity stockholders 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, based primarily on sales, calculated quarterly, 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 stockholders 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 is remeasured to fair value each reporting period and adjustments are recorded through earnings. As of March 31, 2014, the estimated fair value of the contingent consideration was $96.5 million. The increase in the estimated fair value of the contingent consideration during the third quarter of fiscal 2014 was primarily due to the increase in the forecasted revenue for the product embodying Validity fingerprint sensor technology.

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 is amortizing 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. 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 three to six months. The value of goodwill reflects the anticipated synergies of the combined operations and workforce of Validity as of the Acquisition Date.
As of March 31, 2014, our purchase price allocation was 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 settlements 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 report revenue from these products on a combined basis with our other products based on device type. 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 an existing relationship with Validity.
The condensed consolidated financial statements include $35.7 million of revenue from Validity fingerprint authentication products from the Acquisition Date through March 31, 2014.

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 were 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 stockholders and additional cash and shares of our common stock will be delivered to the former Validity stockholders. 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, our estimates of the timing and the number of qualifying units expected to be sold during the earn-out period, the degree of success of current and future projects incorporating both the developed technology and in-process technology of Pacinian and/or Validity, and changes in the discount rates used to determine the fair value of the contingent consideration liabilities over time.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting policies and estimates during the nine months ended March 31, 2014 compared with our critical accounting policies and estimates disclosed in Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013.

Net Revenue.
Net revenue was $204.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2014 compared with $163.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2013, an increase of $40.9 million, or 25.1%, which includes $31.4 million of biometric fingerprint authentication product revenue. Of our third quarter fiscal 2014 net revenue, $150.8 million, or 73.8%, was from mobile product applications and $53.5 million, or 26.2%, was from PC product applications. The increase in net revenue for the quarter ended March 31, 2014 was attributable to an increase in net revenue from mobile product, partially offset by a decline in PC product applications. Net revenue from mobile product applications increased primarily as a result of higher unit sales in the quarter, reflecting market growth and the addition of mobile based biometric fingerprint authentication solutions. Net revenue from PC product applications decreased primarily as a result of lower unit sales in the quarter, reflecting weakness in the overall PC market, and timing of our sales in the supply chain.
Net revenue was $632.6 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2014 compared with $433.4 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2013, an increase of $199.2 million, or 46.0%, which includes $35.7 million of biometric fingerprint authentication product revenue. Of our first nine months of fiscal 2014 net revenue, $447.0 million, or 70.7%, was from mobile product applications and $185.6 million, or 29.3%, was from PC product applications. The increase in net revenue for the nine months ended March 31, 2014 was attributable to an increase in net revenue from mobile product applications and PC product applications. Net revenue from mobile product applications increased primarily as a result of higher unit sales in the nine month period, primarily reflecting market growth. Net revenue from PC product applications increased primarily as a result of expanding our content in PC products with the addition of biometric fingerprint authentication products.
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 4% in calendar year 2014 compared with calendar year 2013.
Gross Margin.
Gross margin as a percentage of net revenue was 45.2%, or $92.4 million, for the quarter ended March 31, 2014 compared with 49.6%, or $81.1 million, for the quarter ended March 31, 2013. The 440 basis point decline in gross margin was primarily due to amortization of acquired intangibles incurred in the current quarter, as well as a higher mix of module products, which generally carry a lower margin than chip products due to additional components/materials than just the chip.
Gross margin as a percentage of net revenue was 46.8%, or $296.3 million, for the nine months ended March 31, 2014 compared with 48.6%, or $210.7 million, for the nine months ended March 31, 2013. The 180 basis point decline in gross margin was primarily due to amortization of acquired intangibles incurred in the current year as well as a higher mix of module products, which generally carry a lower margin than chip products due to additional components/materials than just the chip.
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 customers 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 $12.7 million to $49.4 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2014 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2013. The increase in research and development expenses primarily reflected a $8.7 million increase in personnel-related costs, which included our annual merit increase, additional headcount associated with an expanded product portfolio and a recent acquisition, a $1.9 million increase in infrastructure-related costs, and a $1.0 million increase in share-based compensation costs.
Research and development expenses increased $32.0 million to $135.8 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2014 compared with the nine months ended March 31, 2013. The increase in research and development expenses primarily reflected a $19.9 million increase in personnel-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 $9.2 million increase in infrastructure-related costs, and a $1.4 million increase in travel and related expenses.

Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general, and administrative expenses increased $5.7 million to $25.9 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2014 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2013. The increase in selling, general, and administrative expenses primarily reflected a $3.2 million increase in employee-related costs, which included our annual merit increase, additional headcount related to a recent acquisition, and a $1.4 million increase in professional fees, primarily associated with acquisition-related costs.
Selling, general, and administrative expenses increased $11.7 million to $69.8 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2014 compared with the nine months ended March 31, 2013. The increase in selling, general, and administrative expenses primarily reflected a $8.6 million increase in employee-related costs, which included our annual merit increase and additional headcount including new employees related to a recent acquisition, a $3.2 million increase in professional fees, primarily associated with acquisition-related costs, and a $1.7 million in travel and related expenses, partially offset by a $2.8 million decrease in share-based compensation.
Change in Contingent Consideration. Our contingent consideration increased $52.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2014 compared with the quarter ended March 31, 2013. The increase was primarily attributable to the increase in the estimated fair value of the contingent consideration, which resulted from a substantial increase in expected unit sales of products embodying Validity fingerprint sensor technology over the remaining earn-out period. The material increase in change in contingent consideration resulted in a net loss for the quarter ended March 31, 2014.
Our contingent consideration increased $55.6 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2014 compared with the nine months ended March 31, 2013. The increase was primarily attributable to the increase in the estimated fair value of the contingent consideration, which resulted from a substantial increase in expected unit sales of products embodying Validity fingerprint sensor technology over the remaining earn-out period.
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/(benefit) for income taxes of $4.4 million and ($12.6) million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, represented estimated federal, foreign, and state income taxes. The provision/(benefit) for income taxes recorded in interim periods is recorded by applying the estimated annual effective tax rate to year-to-date income/(loss) before income taxes, excluding the effects of significant unusual or infrequently occurring discrete items and the change in contingent consideration liability related to the Validity acquisition which is not yet reliably estimable. The tax effects of discrete items and the change in the Validity contingent consideration liability are recorded in the same period that the related item is reported and resulted in the difference between the actual effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and March 31, 2013, and the estimated annual effective tax rates for those periods of 29.3% and 25.2%, respectively. The Companys annual effective tax rate diverged from the combined U.S. 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, contingent consideration, and net unrecognized tax benefits associated with qualified stock options. Discrete items recognized in the three months ended March 31, 2014 included additional research and development credits net of an increase in unrecognized tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions related to prior fiscal years, and tax benefits realized from stock-based compensation. Discrete items recognized in the three months ended March 31, 2013 included additional research and development credits resulting from the retroactive restatement of the federal research and development credit, a decrease in unrecognized tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions, which included the remeasurement of a prior year tax position, and tax benefits realized from stock-based compensation.

The provision/(benefit) for income taxes of $22.3 million and ($6.1) million for the nine months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, represented estimated federal, foreign, and state income taxes. The provision/(benefit) for income taxes recorded in interim periods is recorded by applying the estimated annual effective tax rate to year-to-date income/(loss) before income taxes, excluding the effects of significant unusual or infrequently occurring discrete items and the change in contingent consideration liability related to the Validity acquisition which is not yet reliably estimable. The tax effects of discrete items and the change in the Validity contingent consideration liability are recorded in the same period that the related item is reported and resulted in the difference between the actual effective tax rate for the nine months ended March 31, 2014 and March 31, 2013, and the estimated annual effective tax rates for those periods of 29.3% and 25.2%, respectively. The Companys annual effective tax rate diverged from the combined U.S. 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, contingent consideration, and net unrecognized tax benefits associated with qualified stock options. Discrete items recognized in the nine months ended March 31, 2014 included additional research and development credits net of an increase in unrecognized tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions related to prior fiscal years and tax benefits realized from stock-based compensation. Discrete items recognized in the nine months ended March 31, 2013 included additional research and development credits resulting from the retroactive restatement of the federal research and development credit, a decrease in unrecognized tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions, which included the remeasurement of a prior year tax position and the recognition of a prior year tax position due to an expired statute, and tax benefits realized from stock-based compensation.
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 which resulted when we carried back our fiscal 2008 net operating loss. In March 2013, we received the Revenue Agents 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 will conclude in our fiscal 2015. 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 extended the Federal 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 from the research credit in our current fiscal year.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our cash and cash equivalents were $391.5 million as of March 31, 2014 compared with $355.3 million as of June 30, 2013, an increase of $36.2 million. The increase primarily reflected the combination of $91.1 million provided from operating cash flows and $63.0 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, $32.3 million used for the purchase of property and equipment, and $19.6 million used for the acquisition of a business. 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 March 31, 2014, $348.5 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 nine months ended March 31, 2014 generated net cash of $91.1 million compared with $69.6 million of net cash generated during the nine months ended March 31, 2013. For the nine months ended March 31, 2014, net cash provided by operating activities was primarily attributable to net income of $12.2 million plus adjustments for non-cash charges of $103.1 million, and a $24.3 million net change in operating assets and liabilities. The net change in operating assets and liabilities was primarily attributable to an $18.1 million increase in inventory, a $4.3 million decrease in income taxes, an $8.7 million increase in other assets, a $5.8 million decrease in accounts payable, partially offset by a $13.2 million increase in other accrued liabilities. From June 30, 2013 to March 31, 2014, our days sales outstanding increased from 58 days to 66 days and our inventory turns declined from 9 to 6.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities. Investing activities during the nine months ended March 31, 2014 used net cash of $32.3 million for purchases of property and equipment and $19.6 million for the acquisition of a business compared with $30.0 million net cash used for purchases of property and equipment and $5.0 million for the acquisition of a business during the nine months ended March 31, 2013.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities. Net cash used in financing activities for the nine months ended March 31, 2014 was $3.0 million compared with $26.3 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2013. Net cash used in financing activities for the nine months ended March 31, 2014 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 $63.0 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 March 31, 2014, 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 March 31, 2014, 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 this line of credit as of March 31, 2014.
$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 will generally be freely tradeable 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 contingent consideration obligation associated with the acquisition of Validity. 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 that 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.

In connection with the acquisition of Validity in November 2013, we entered into a contingent consideration arrangement. As of March 31, 2014, we may owe up to $162.5 million of additional consideration to the former Validity stockholders and option holders based on unit sales of products utilizing Validity technology through March 2016. The estimated fair value of the contingent consideration liability as of March 31, 2014 was $96.5 million.

In connection with the acquisition of Pacinian in June 2012, we entered into a contingent consideration arrangement and subsequently paid $5.0 million of additional consideration to the former Pacinian stockholders upon customer acceptance of a ThinTouch product. As of March 31, 2014, 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 March 31, 2014 was $5.9 million.
The amounts in the table above exclude unrecognized tax benefits of $10.4 million. As of March 31, 2014, 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 SECs 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.

Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities
Our cumulative authorization for our common stock repurchase program is $620.0 million. The remaining amount authorized for the repurchase of our common stock through October 2015 is $89.6 million. There were no repurchases under our common stock repurchase program during the three-month period ended March 31, 2014.
