JDS UNIPHASE CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

 

Note 1. Basis of Presentation

 

The financial information for JDS Uniphase Corporation (“JDSU,” also referred to as “the Company”) as of March 29, 2014 and for the three and nine months ended March 29, 2014 and March 30, 2013 is unaudited, and includes all normal and recurring adjustments Company management (“Management”) considers necessary for a fair statement of the financial information set forth herein, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, such information does not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for annual financial statements. For further information, please refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended June 29, 2013.

 

The balance sheet as of June 29, 2013 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The results for the three and nine months ended March 29, 2014 and March 30, 2013 may not be indicative of results for the year ending June 28, 2014 or any future periods.

 

Fiscal Years

 

The Company utilizes a 52-53 week fiscal year ending on the Saturday closest to June 30th. The Company’s fiscal 2014 is a 52-week year ending on June 28, 2014. The Company’s fiscal 2013 was a 52-week year ending on June 29, 2013.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and include the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

 

Fiscal 2013 Out-of-Period Adjustments

 

During the nine months ended March 30, 2013, the Company recorded out-of-period adjustments that related to cost of sales and other income in the current and prior fiscal years. The impact of the out-of-period adjustments recorded by the Company resulted in a $2.5 million reduction in net loss during the nine months ended March 30, 2013. Management and the Audit Committee have concluded these errors, both individually and in aggregate, were not material to any prior year financial statements and the impact of correcting these errors in fiscal 2013 was not material to the full year fiscal 2013 financial statements.

 

Discontinued Operations

 

During the second quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company closed the sale of its hologram business (“Hologram Business”) for $11.5 million in cash. The Consolidated Statements of Operations reflect the Hologram Business as discontinued operations as described in “Note 18. Discontinued Operations.” Unless noted otherwise, discussion in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements pertain to continuing operations.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires Management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, the reported amount of net revenue and expenses and the disclosure of commitments and contingencies during the reporting periods. The Company bases estimates on historical experience and on various assumptions about the future believed to be reasonable based on available information. The Company’s reported financial position or results of operations may be materially different under changed conditions or when using different estimates and assumptions, particularly with respect to significant accounting policies. If estimates or assumptions differ from actual results, subsequent periods are adjusted to reflect more current information.

JDS UNIPHASE CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

 

Note 2. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued authoritative guidance, which specifies that only disposals, such as a disposal of a major line of business, representing a strategic shift in operations should be presented as discontinued operations. In addition, the new guidance requires expanded disclosures about discontinued operations that will provide financial statement users with more information about the assets, liabilities, income, and expenses of discontinued operations. This guidance is effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2016. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements, absent any disposition representing a strategic shift in the Company’s operations.

 

In July 2013, the FASB issued authoritative guidance that requires an entity to present an unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward. This guidance is effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2015. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

 

In March 2013, the FASB issued authoritative guidance that resolves the diversity in practice regarding the release into net income of the cumulative translation adjustment upon de-recognition of a subsidiary or group of assets within a foreign entity. This guidance will be effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2015. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements, absent any material transactions involving de-recognition of subsidiaries or groups of assets within a foreign entity.

Network Instruments, LLC (“Network Instruments”)

 

On January 6, 2014 (“Network Instruments Closing Date”), the Company completed the acquisition of Network Instruments, a privately-held leading developer of enterprise network and application-performance management solutions for global 2000 companies. The Company acquired all outstanding shares of Network Instruments for $208.5 million in cash, subject to final cash and working capital adjustments including holdback payments of approximately $20.0 million which are reserved for potential breaches of representations and warranties. The holdback payments, minus any deductions for actual or pending claims, will be released in two tranches: $10.0 million to be paid following the six-month anniversary of the Network Instruments Closing Date and the remaining $10.0 million to be paid following the one-year anniversary of the Network Instruments Closing Date.

 

The acquisition of Network Instruments further strengthens the Company as a key solutions provider to the enterprise, data center and cloud networking markets. In order to improve application performance, reduce costs and address increasing network complexity, enterprise network administrators are rapidly transforming their IT networks while embracing today’s most critical technology initiatives such as unified communications, cloud, and data center consolidation. Network Instruments helps enterprises simplify the management and optimization of their networks with high-performance solutions that provide actionable intelligence and deep network visibility. The Network Instruments acquisition is being integrated into the Company’s Network and Service Enablement (“NSE”) segment.

 

The Company accounted for the transaction in accordance with the authoritative guidance on business combinations; therefore, the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at fair value on the acquisition date.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

 

Acquired intangible assets are classified as Level 3 assets for which fair value is derived from valuation based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. The fair value of acquired developed technology, customer relationships, In-process Research and Development (“IPR&D”) and other intangible assets was determined based on an income approach using the discounted cash flow method. The intangible assets, except IPR&D, are being amortized over their estimated useful lives of five years for the majority of acquired developed technology and customer relationships and one year for trade name. Order backlog will be fully amortized in fiscal 2014.

 

In accordance with authoritative guidance, the Company recognizes IPR&D at fair value as of the Network Instruments Closing Date. The IPR&D is accounted for as an indefinite-lived intangible asset until completion or abandonment of the associated research and development efforts. IPR&D is tested for impairment during the period it is considered an indefinite lived asset.

 

The goodwill arising from this acquisition is primarily attributed to sales of future products and services and the assembled workforce of Network Instruments. Goodwill has been assigned to the NSE segment and is not deductible for tax purposes. Goodwill is not being amortized but is reviewed annually for impairment or more frequently if impairment indicators arise, in accordance with authoritative guidance.

 

Time-Bandwidth Products AG (“Time-Bandwidth”)

 

On January 27, 2014 (“Time-Bandwidth Closing Date”), the Company completed the acquisition of Time-Bandwidth, a privately-held provider of high powered and ultrafast lasers for industrial and scientific markets.

The holdback payment, minus any deductions for actual or pending claims, will be released following the eighteen-month anniversary of the Time-Bandwidth Closing Date.

 

Time-Bandwidth provides innovative high powered and ultrafast laser technology that can rapidly and precisely process parts at high volumes during the manufacturing process.

Manufacturers are taking advantage of high- power and ultrafast lasers to create quality micro parts for consumer electronics and to process semiconductor chips for consumer devices. Time-Bandwidth’s technology complements the Company’s current laser portfolio, while enabling Time-Bandwidth to leverage the Company’s high volume and low-cost manufacturing model, global sales team and channel relationships. Time-Bandwidth is being integrated into the Company’s Communications and Commercial Optical Products (“CCOP”) segment.

 

The Company accounted for the transaction in accordance with the authoritative guidance on business combinations; therefore, the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at fair value on the acquisition date.

Fair value is defined as the exit price, or the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants as of the measurement date. There is an established hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are inputs market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability and are developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions about the factors that market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability.

 

The Company’s cash and investment instruments are classified within Level 1 or Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy based on quoted prices, broker or dealer quotations, or alternative pricing sources with reasonable levels of price transparency.

 

·                  Level 1 includes financial instruments for which quoted market prices for identical instruments are available in active markets. Level 1 assets of the Company include money market funds and U.S. Treasury securities as they are traded in active markets with sufficient volume and frequency of transactions.

 

19



 

JDS UNIPHASE CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

 

·                  Level 2 includes financial instruments for which the valuations are based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Level 2 instruments of the Company generally include certain U.S. and foreign government and agency securities, commercial paper, corporate and municipal bonds and notes, asset-backed securities, and foreign currency forward contracts. To estimate their fair value, the Company utilizes pricing models based on market data. The significant inputs for the valuation model usually include benchmark yields, reported trades, broker and dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, offers and reference data, and industry and economic events.

 

As of June 29, 2013 and during the three and nine months ended March 29, 2014, the Company held no Level 3 investments. Level 3 includes financial instruments for which fair value is derived from valuation based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement.

 

Foreign Currency Forward Contracts

 

The Company has foreign subsidiaries that operate and sell the Company’s products in various markets around the world. As a result, the Company is exposed to foreign exchange risks. The Company utilizes foreign exchange forward contracts and other instruments to manage foreign currency risk associated with foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities, primarily certain short-term intercompany receivables and payables and to reduce the volatility of earnings and cash flows related to foreign-currency transactions.

 

The forward contracts, most with a term of less than 120 days, were transacted near quarter end; therefore, the fair value of the contracts as of both March 29, 2014 and June 29, 2013 is not significant. The change in the fair value of these foreign currency forward contracts is recorded as gain or loss in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations as a component of Interest and other income (expense), net.

Note 10. Debts and Letters of Credit

 

As of March 29, 2014, the Company’s Long-term debt of $530.2 million on the Consolidated Balance Sheets represents the carrying amount of the liability component of the 0.625% Senior Convertible Notes as discussed below. The Company held no short-term debt as of March 29, 2014. The Company was in compliance with all debt covenants as of March 29, 2014. The Company had no debt as of June 29, 2013.

 

0.625% Senior Convertible Notes

 

On August 21, 2013, the Company issued $650.0 million aggregate principal amount of 0.625% Senior Convertible Notes due 2033 (the “2033 Notes”) in a private offering to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The proceeds from the 2033 Notes amounted to $636.3 million after issuance costs. The 2033 Notes are an unsecured obligation of the Company and bear interest at an annual rate of 0.625% payable in cash semi-annually in arrears on February 15 and August 15 of each year. The 2033 Notes mature on August 15, 2033 unless earlier converted, redeemed or repurchased.

 

Under certain circumstances and during certain periods, the 2033 Notes may be converted at the option of the holders into cash up to the principal amount, with the remaining amount converted into cash, shares of the Company’s common stock, or a combination of cash and shares of the Company’s common stock at the Company’s election. The initial conversion price is $18.83 per share, representing a 40.0% premium to the closing sale price of the Company’s common stock on the pricing date, August 15, 2013, which will be subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments. Holders may convert the 2033 Notes at any time on or prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding February 15, 2033, and other than during the period from, and including, February 15, 2018 until the close of business on the business day immediately preceding August 20, 2018, in multiples of $1,000 principal amount, under the following circumstances:

 

·                  on any date during any calendar quarter beginning after December 31, 2013 (and only during such calendar quarter) if the closing price of the Company’s common stock was more than 130% of the then current conversion price for at least 20 trading days during the 30 consecutive trading-day period ending the last trading day of the previous calendar quarter;

·                  if the 2033 Notes are called for redemption;

·                  upon the occurrence of specified corporate events;

·                  if the Company is party to a specified transaction, a fundamental change or a make-whole fundamental change (each as defined in the indenture of the 2033 Notes), or

·                  during the five consecutive business-day period immediately following any 10 consecutive trading-day period in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of the 2033 Notes for each day of such 10 consecutive trading-day period was less than 98% of the product of the closing sale price of the Company’s common stock and the applicable conversion rate on such date.

 

During the periods from, and including, February 15, 2018 until the close of business on the business day immediately preceding August 20, 2018 and from, and including, February 15, 2033 until the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the maturity date, holders may convert the 2033 Notes at any time, regardless of the foregoing circumstances.

 

Holders of the 2033 Notes may require the Company to purchase all or a portion of the 2033 Notes on each of August 15, 2018, August 15, 2023 and August 15, 2028, or upon the occurrence of a fundamental change, in each case, at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2033 Notes to be purchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding the purchase date. The Company may redeem all or a portion of the 2033 Notes for cash at any time on or after August 20, 2018, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2033 Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date.

In accordance with the authoritative accounting guidance, the Company separated the 2033 Notes into liability and equity components. The carrying value of the liability component at issuance was calculated as the present value of its cash flows using a discount rate of 5.4% based on the 5-year swap rate plus credit spread as of the issuance date. The credit spread for the Company is based on the historical average “yield to worst” rate for BB rated issuers. The difference between the 2033 Notes principal and the carrying value of the liability component, representing the value of conversion premium assigned to the equity component, was recorded as a debt discount on the issuance date and is being accreted using the effective interest rate of 5.4% over the period from the issuance date through August 15, 2018 as a non-cash charge to interest expense. The carrying value of the liability component was determined to be $515.6 million, and the equity component, or debt discount, of the 2033 Notes was determined to be $134.4 million. As of March 29, 2014, the expected remaining term of the 2033 Notes is 4.4 years.

 

In connection with the issuance of the 2033 Notes, the Company incurred $13.7 million of issuance costs, which were bifurcated into the debt issuance costs, attributable to the liability component of $10.9 million and the equity issuance costs, attributable to the equity component of $2.8 million based on their relative values. The debt issuance costs were capitalized and are being amortized to interest expense using the effective interest rate method from issuance date through August 15, 2018. The equity issuance costs were netted against the equity component in additional paid-in capital at the issuance date. As of March 29, 2014, the unamortized portion of the debt issuance costs related to the 2033 Notes was $9.7 million, which was included in Other non-current assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

On June 5, 2006, the Company completed an offering of $425.0 million aggregate principal amount of 1% Senior Convertible Notes due 2026 (the “2026 Notes”). Proceeds from the 2026 Notes amounted to $415.9 million after issuance costs. The notes bore interest at a rate of 1.0% per year and were convertible into a combination of cash and shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $30.30 per share.

 

In accordance with the authoritative guidance which applied to the 2026 Notes, the Company calculated the carrying value of the liability component at issuance as the present value of its cash flows using a discount rate of 8.1%, based on the 7-year swap rate plus credit spread as of the issuance date. The carrying value of the liability component was determined to be $266.5 million. The equity component, or debt discount, of the notes was determined to be $158.5 million. The debt discount was accreted using the effective interest rate of 8.1% over the period from issuance date through May 15, 2013 as a non-cash charge to interest expense.

During the three and nine months ended March 30, 2013, the Company recognized the contractual interest expense of $0.4 million and $1.6 million, and accreted debt discount of $2.8 million and $10.6 million, respectively. Between fiscal 2009 and fiscal 2013, the Company repurchased or redeemed the $425.0 million aggregate principal amount of the notes. As of March 29, 2014, no amounts were outstanding.

 

Revolving Credit Facility

 

On August 21, 2013, in addition to the close of the 2033 Notes offering, the Company terminated its existing $250.0 million revolving credit facility, which had no amounts outstanding upon termination. The $1.3 million of unamortized debt issuance costs was fully amortized to interest expense upon termination in the first quarter of fiscal 2014.

 

Outstanding Letters of Credit

 

As of March 29, 2014, the Company had 14 standby letters of credit totaling $34.7 million.

 

Note 11. Restructuring and Related Charges

 

The Company continues to reduce costs through targeted restructuring events intended to consolidate its operations, rationalize the manufacturing of its products and align its businesses in response to market conditions. As of March 29, 2014 and June 29, 2013, the Company’s total restructuring accrual was $9.0 million and $16.5 million, respectively. During the three and nine months ended March 29, 2014, the Company incurred restructuring expenses of $3.6 million and $3.8 million, respectively. During the three and nine months ended March 30, 2013, the Company incurred restructuring expenses of $0.4 million and $6.1 million, respectively. The Company’s restructuring charges can include severance and benefit costs to eliminate a specified number of positions, facilities and equipment costs to vacate facilities and consolidate operations, and lease termination costs. The timing of associated cash payments depend upon the type of restructuring charge and can extend over multiple periods.

Fiscal 2014 Plans

 

NSE Product Strategy Restructuring Plan

 

During the third quarter of fiscal 2014, Management approved a plan in the NSE segment to realign its services, support and product resources in response to market conditions in the mobile assurance market and to increase focus on software products and next generation solutions through acquisitions and Research and Development (“R&D”). As a result, a restructuring charge of $3.3 million was recorded for severance and employee benefits for 63 employees primarily in SG&A and manufacturing functions located in North America, Latin America, Asia and Europe. As of March 29, 2014, 34 employees have been terminated. Payments related to the remaining severance and benefits accrual are expected to be paid by the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2015.

 

Central Finance and Information Technology (“IT”) Restructuring Plan

 

During the second quarter of fiscal 2014, Management approved a plan to eliminate positions and re-define roles and responsibilities in the Finance and IT organizations to align with the future state of the organizations under new executive management and move positions to lower-cost locations where appropriate. As a result, 25 employees primarily in SG&A functions located in North America, Asia and Europe will be impacted. As of March 29, 2014, 18 employees have been terminated. Payments related to the remaining severance and benefits accrual are expected to be paid by the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2015.

 

Fiscal 2013 Plans

 

Optical Security and Performance Products (“OSP”) Operational Realignment Plan

 

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013, Management approved a plan in the OSP segment to realign its operations to focus on priority markets such as Anti-counterfeiting, Consumer and Industrial and Other offerings in government, aerospace and defense. As a result, the OSP segment is ceasing production of certain legacy products such as anti-reflection coatings and front-surface mirrors for display and office automation applications, solar cell covers, and select infrared products that use the Multi-layer Anti-reflection Coater, custom display, and certain box coater production platforms which were at the end of their product lifecycle. The business segment phased out production of these product offerings by the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2014 and de-commissioned and disposed of certain related production equipment. This will result in consolidation of manufacturing operations and office space at the Santa Rosa, California site and reduction of workforce by 79 employees primarily in manufacturing, R&D and SG&A functions located in the United States. Management reduced the number of employees impacted by this plan from 126 to 79, which reduced the total liability for this plan by approximately $0.7 million during the nine months ended March 29, 2014. As of March 29, 2014, 42 employees have been terminated. Payments related to the remaining severance and benefits accrual are expected to be paid by the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2015.

 

NSE Lease Restructuring Plan

 

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013, Management approved a plan to consolidate workspace in Germantown, Maryland and Beijing, China, primarily used by the NSE segment. As of June 29, 2013, the Company exited the workspace in Germantown and Beijing under the plan. The fair value of the remaining contractual obligations, net of sublease income as of March 29, 2014 was $2.6 million. A $0.8 million benefit was recorded during the nine months ended March 29, 2014, to adjust the estimated lease liability accrual for the Germantown location. Payments related to the Germantown lease costs are expected to be paid by the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2019. Final payments related to the Beijing lease costs were paid during the first quarter of fiscal 2014.

 

CCOP Outsourcing Plan

 

During the third quarter of fiscal 2013, Management approved a plan to transition certain functions related to the CCOP segment to an offshore contract manufacturer as part of its continuous efforts to optimize its supply chain. As a result, 44 employees primarily in manufacturing, R&D and SG&A functions located in the United States were impacted. As of March 29, 2014, 15 employees have been terminated. Payments related to the remaining severance and benefits accrual are expected to be paid by the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2015.

NSE Wireless Business Restructuring Plan

 

During the second quarter of fiscal 2013, Management approved a plan to align the Company’s investment strategy in the NSE segment with customer spending priorities in high-growth product lines such as wireless network assurance. As a result, the segment eliminated positions in R&D, sales and operations functions that supported low-growth product lines and 63 employees primarily in manufacturing, R&D and SG&A functions located in North America, Europe and Asia were impacted. As of March 29, 2014, 61 employees have been terminated. Payments related to the remaining severance and benefits accrual are expected to be paid by the end of the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014.

 

Other Plans

 

Other plans account for an immaterial portion of the total restructuring accrual, with minimal or no revisions recorded.

 

Fiscal 2012 Plans

 

NSE Operation and Repair Outsourcing Restructuring Plan

 

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012, Management approved a plan which focuses on three areas in the NSE segment: (1) moving the repair organization to a repair outsourcing partner; (2) reorganizing the R&D global team because of portfolio prioritization primarily in the Customer Experience Management business to consolidate key platforms from several sites to a single site, and (3) reorganizing Global Sales to focus on strategic software growth, wireless growth, and to ensure sales account resources on the most critical global growth accounts. This action will occur over the next several quarters and will impact 161 employees in manufacturing, R&D and SG&A functions and resulted in the exit of workspaces in Techpoint Singapore and Atlanta, Georgia. As of September 29, 2012, the Company exited both workspaces. The employees being affected are located in North America, Europe, Latin America and Asia. As of March 29, 2014, 157 of these employees have been terminated. Payments related to the severance and benefits accrual are expected to be paid by the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2015.

 

Other Plans

 

Other plans account for an immaterial portion of the total restructuring accrual, with minimal or no revisions recorded.

 

Plans Prior to Fiscal 2012

 

The restructuring accrual for plans that commenced prior to fiscal year 2012 was $1.8 million. Of this amount, $1.0 million is related to severance and benefits accrual for the NSE Germany Restructuring Plan which commenced in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009. Payments related to the severance and benefits accrual are expected to be paid by the end of the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016. The remaining balance consists of immaterial lease obligation accruals from various restructuring plans that commenced prior to fiscal 2012.

 

Note 12. Income Tax

 

The Company recorded an income tax benefit of $17.2 million and $13.7 million for the three and nine months ended March 29, 2014, respectively. The Company recorded an income tax expense of $1.6 million and $9.1 million for the three and nine months ended March 30, 2013, respectively.

 

The income tax benefit recorded for the three and nine months ended March 29, 2014, primarily relates to income tax in certain foreign and state jurisdictions based on the Company’s forecasted pre-tax income for the year in those locations offset by the recognition of $21.7 million of uncertain tax benefits related to deferred tax assets due to the expiration of the statute of limitations in a non-US jurisdiction.  A tax benefit of $5.1 million was recorded for the nine months ended March 29, 2014,  related to the income tax intraperiod tax allocation rules in relation to other comprehensive income. In accordance with authoritative guidance, the year to date benefit may reverse during the year.

 

27



 

JDS UNIPHASE CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

 

The income tax expense recorded for the three and nine months ended March 30, 2013, primarily relates to income tax in certain foreign and state jurisdictions based on the Company’s forecasted pre-tax income for the year in those locations.

 

The income tax benefit and expense recorded differs from the expected tax expense or benefit that would be calculated by applying the federal statutory rate to the Company’s income or loss before income taxes primarily due to the increases in valuation allowance for deferred tax assets attributable to the Company’s domestic and foreign losses from continuing operations, due to the income tax benefit recorded in continuing operations under the income tax intraperiod tax allocation rules, and the recognition of the unrecognized tax benefits.

 

As of March 29, 2014 and June 29, 2013, the Company’s unrecognized tax benefits totaled $58.4 million and $80.7 million, respectively, and are included in deferred taxes and other non-current tax liabilities, net. The Company had $23.6 million accrued for the payment of interest and penalties at March 29, 2014. The unrecognized tax benefits that may be recognized during the next twelve months are approximately $21.4 million.

 

Note 13. Stockholders’ Equity

 

Repurchase of Common Stock

 

During the first quarter of fiscal 2014, the Company repurchased 7.4 million shares of its outstanding common stock at $13.45 per share in privately negotiated transactions. The total purchase price of $100.0 million was reflected as a decrease to common stock based on the stated par value per share with the remainder charged to accumulated deficit. All common shares repurchased under this program have been cancelled and retired.

 

Note 14. Stock-Based Compensation

Approximately $1.8 million of stock-based compensation was capitalized in inventory at March 29, 2014.

 

Stock Options

 

The Company issues stock options that generally become exercisable over a three-year or four-year period and, if not exercised, expire from five to ten years after the date of grant. The Company granted no stock options in the first three quarters of fiscal 2014 or fiscal 2013.

 

As of March 29, 2014, $0.4 million of unrecognized stock-based compensation cost related to stock options remains to be amortized. That cost is expected to be recognized over an estimated amortization period of 0.8 years.

 

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

 

The Company’s ESPP provides eligible employees an opportunity to acquire an ownership interest in the Company at a discounted purchase price with a 6-month look-back period. The fair value of ESPP is estimated on the date of offering using a Black-Scholes-Merton valuation model.

 

28



 

JDS UNIPHASE CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

 

As of March 29, 2014, $0.6 million of unrecognized stock-based compensation cost related to the ESPP remains to be amortized. That cost is expected to be recognized through the first quarter of fiscal 2015.

 

Full Value Awards

 

“Full Value Awards” refer to RSUs and Performance Units that are granted with the exercise price equal to zero and are converted to shares immediately upon vesting. These Full Value Awards are performance-based, time-based or a combination of both and expected to vest over one year to four years. The fair value of the time-based Full Value Awards is based on the closing market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of award.

 

During the nine months ended March 29, 2014 and March 30, 2013 the Company granted 5.5 million and 6.0 million RSUs, of which 0.6 million and 0.7 million, respectively, are performance-based RSUs with market conditions (“MSUs”). These MSU shares represent the target amount of grants, and the actual number of shares awarded upon vesting of the MSUs may be higher or lower depending upon the achievement of the relevant market conditions. The majority of MSUs vest in equal annual installments over three years based on the attainment of certain total shareholder return performance measures and the employee’s continued service through the vest date. The aggregate grant-date fair value of MSUs granted during the first nine months of fiscal 2014 and fiscal 2013 was estimated to be $9.2 million and $10.7 million, respectively, and was calculated using a Monte Carlo simulation. The remaining 4.9 million and 5.3 million granted during the nine months ended March 29, 2014 and March 30, 2013 are mainly time-based RSUs. The majority of these time-based RSUs vest over three years, with 33% vesting after one year and the balance vesting quarterly over the remaining two years.

 

As of March 29, 2014, $87.8 million of unrecognized stock-based compensation cost related to Full Value Awards remains to be amortized. That cost is expected to be recognized over an estimated amortization period of 2.1 years.

 

Full Value Awards are converted into shares upon vesting.  Shares equivalent in value to the minimum withholding taxes liability on the vested shares are withheld by the Company for the payment of such taxes.  During the nine months ended March 29, 2014 and March 30, 2013 the Company paid $18.3 million and $12.8 million, respectively, and classified the payments as operating cash outflows in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Note 15. Employee Defined Benefit Plans

 

The Company sponsors significant qualified and non-qualified pension plans for certain past and present employees primarily in the United Kingdom (“U.K.”), Germany and Switzerland. The Company is also responsible for the non-pension post-retirement benefit obligation of a previously acquired subsidiary. Most of the plans have been closed to new participants and no additional service costs are being accrued, except for the plans assumed during fiscal 2010 and the third quarter of fiscal 2014 in connection with acquisitions. Benefits are generally based upon years of service and compensation or stated amounts for each year of service.

 

As of March 29, 2014, the U.K. plan and Switzerland plan were partially funded while the other plans were unfunded. The Company’s policy for funded plans is to make contributions equal to or greater than the requirements prescribed by law or regulation. For unfunded plans, the Company pays the post-retirement benefits when due. During the nine months ended March 29, 2014, the Company contributed $0.7 million to the U.K. plan. The funded plan assets consist primarily of managed investments.

Both the calculation of the projected benefit obligation and net periodic cost are based upon actuarial valuations. These valuations use participant-specific information such as salary, age, years of service, and assumptions about interest rates, pension increases and other factors. At a minimum, the Company evaluates these assumptions annually and makes changes as necessary.

 

The Company expects to incur cash outlays of approximately $5.4 million related to its defined benefit pension plans during fiscal 2014 to make current benefit payments and fund future obligations. As of March 29, 2014, approximately $4.2 million had been incurred. These payments have been estimated based on the same assumptions used to measure the Company’s projected benefit obligation at June 29, 2013.

 

Note 16. Commitments and Contingencies

 

Legal Proceedings

 

The Company is subject to a variety of claims and suits that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of our business. While Management currently believes that resolving claims against the Company, individually or in aggregate, will not have a material adverse impact on its financial position, results of operations or statement of cash flows, these matters are subject to inherent uncertainties and Management’s view of these matters may change in the future. If an unfavorable final outcome occurs, it is possible there could be a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows for the period in which the effect becomes reasonably estimable.

 

Guarantees

 

In accordance with authoritative guidance which requires that upon issuance of a guarantee, the guarantor must recognize a liability for the fair value of the obligation it assumes under that guarantee. In addition, disclosures about the guarantees that an entity has issued, including a tabular reconciliation of the changes of the entity’s product warranty liabilities, are required.

 

The Company from time to time enters into certain types of contracts that contingently require the Company to indemnify parties against third-party claims. These contracts primarily relate to: (i) divestiture agreements, under which the Company may provide customary indemnifications to purchasers of the Company’s businesses or assets; (ii) certain real estate leases, under which the Company may be required to indemnify property owners for environmental and other liabilities, and other claims arising from the Company’s use of the applicable premises; and (iii) certain agreements with the Company’s officers, directors and employees, under which the Company may be required to indemnify such persons for liabilities arising out of their employment relationship.

 

The terms of such obligations vary. Generally, a maximum obligation is not explicitly stated. Because the obligated amounts of these types of agreements often are not explicitly stated, the overall maximum amount of the obligations cannot be reasonably estimated. Historically, the Company has not been obligated to make significant payments for these obligations, and no liabilities have been recorded for these obligations on its balance sheet as of March 29, 2014 and June 29, 2013.

Product Warranties

 

In general, the Company offers a three-month to one-year warranty for most of its products. The Company provides reserves for the estimated costs of product warranties at the time revenue is recognized. The Company estimates the costs of its warranty obligations based on its historical experience of known product failure rates, use of materials to repair or replace defective products and service delivery costs incurred in correcting product failures. In addition, from time to time, specific warranty accruals may be made if unforeseen technical problems arise with specific products. The Company periodically assesses the adequacy of its recorded warranty liabilities and adjusts the amounts as necessary.

Financing Obligations — Eningen and Santa Rosa

 

Eningen

 

On December 16, 2011, the Company executed and closed the sale and leaseback transaction of certain buildings and land in Eningen, Germany (the “Eningen Transactions”). The Company sold approximately 394,217 square feet of land, nine buildings with approximately 386,132 rentable square feet, and parking areas. The Company leased back approximately 158,154 rentable square feet comprised of two buildings and a portion of a basement of another building (the “Leased Premises”). The lease term is 10 years with the right to cancel a certain portion of the lease after 5 years. The gross cash proceeds received from the transaction were approximately €7.1 million.

 

Concurrent with the sale and lease back, the Company has provided collateral in case of a default by the Company relative to future lease payments for the Leased Premises. Due to this continuing involvement, the related portion of the cash proceeds and transaction costs, associated with the Leased Premises and other buildings which the Company continues to occupy, was recorded under the financing method in accordance with the authoritative guidance on leases and sales of real estate. Accordingly, the carrying value of these buildings and associated land will remain on the Company’s books and the buildings will continue to be depreciated over their remaining useful lives. The portion of the proceeds received have been recorded as a financing obligation, a portion of the lease payments are recorded as a decrease to the financing obligation and a portion is recognized as interest expense. Imputed rental income from the buildings sold but not leased back and currently being occupied is recorded as a reduction in the financing obligation.

 

As of March 29, 2014, of the total financing obligation related to the Eningen Transactions, $0.1 million was included in Other current liabilities, and $5.3 million was included in Other non-current liabilities. As of June 29, 2013, of the total financing obligation related to the Eningen Transactions, $0.1 million was included in Other current liabilities, and $5.0 million was included in Other non-current liabilities.

 

Santa Rosa

 

On August 21, 2007, the Company entered into a sale and lease back of certain buildings and land in Santa Rosa, California (the “Santa Rosa Transactions”). The Company sold approximately 45 acres of land, 13 buildings with approximately 492,000 rentable square feet, a building pad, and parking areas. The Company leased back 7 buildings with approximately 286,000 rentable square feet. The net cash proceeds received from the transaction were $32.2 million. The lease terms range from a five-year lease with multiple one-year renewal options to a ten-year lease with two five-year renewal options.

As required by the North Coast Regional Water Quality Control Board, the Company has an ongoing obligation to remediate environmental matters, impacting the entire site which existed at the time of sale. Concurrent with the sale and lease back, the Company has issued an irrevocable letter of credit for $3.8 million as security for the remediation of the environmental matter that remains in effect until the issuance of a notice of no further action letter from the North Coast Regional Water Quality Control Board. In addition, the lease agreement for one building included an option to purchase at fair market value, at the end of the lease term. Due to these various forms of continuing involvement the transaction was recorded under the financing method in accordance with the authoritative guidance on leases and sales of real estate.

 

Accordingly, the value of the buildings and land will remain on the Company’s books and the buildings will continue to be depreciated over their remaining useful lives. The proceeds received have been recorded as a financing obligation, a portion of the lease payments are recorded as a decrease to the financing obligation and a portion is recognized as interest expense. Imputed rental income from the buildings sold but not leased back is recorded as a reduction in the financing obligation.

 

As of March 29, 2014, $1.2 million was included in Other current liabilities, and $26.5 million was included in Other non-current liabilities. As of June 29, 2013, $1.1 million was included in Other current liabilities, and $27.4 million was included in Other non-current liabilities.

 

The lease payments due under the agreements reset to fair market rental rates upon the Company’s execution of the renewal options.

OUR INDUSTRIES AND QUARTERLY DEVELOPMENTS

 

JDSU provides network and service enablement solutions and optical products for telecommunications service providers, cable operators, network equipment manufacturers, and enterprises. Our diverse technology portfolio also fights counterfeiting and enables commercial lasers for a range of applications.

 

In the first quarter of fiscal 2014, we changed the name of our Communication Test and Measurement segment to Network and Service Enablement (“NSE”). The name NSE more accurately reflects the value the Company brings to customers and the evolution of the Company’s product portfolio, one that includes communications test instruments as well as microprobes, software and services that provide the necessary visibility throughout the network to improve service and application performance.

 

To serve its markets, JDSU operates the following business segments:

 

·      Network and Service Enablement

·      Communications and Commercial Optical Products (“CCOP”)

·      Optical Security and Performance Products (“OSP”)

 

36



 

Network and Service Enablement

 

NSE provides an integrated portfolio of network and service enablement solutions that provide end-to-end visibility and intelligence necessary for consistent, high-quality network, service and application performance.

 

These solutions are made up of test instruments and customer experience assurance management solutions supported by microprobes, monitoring software and optimization applications. This portfolio helps network operators and service providers effectively manage the continued growth of network traffic, devices and applications.

 

As a result of this continued and rapid growth, operators and providers are looking for new ways to drive business agility and generate revenue with innovative services, while continuing to focus on reducing operating costs and improving network performance. To this end, NSE provides world-class network and service enablement solutions, focusing on software and solutions offerings in high-growth markets while leveraging its instruments portfolio. These strategic investments are being placed globally to meet end-customer demand.

 

JDSU’s network enablement solutions include instruments and software to build, activate, certify, troubleshoot, monitor, and optimize networks that are differentiated through superior efficiency, higher profitability, reliable performance, and greater customer satisfaction. These products include instruments and software that access the network to perform installation and maintenance tasks. Our service enablement solutions collect and analyze complete network data to reveal the true customer experience and opportunities for new revenue streams with enhanced management, control, optimization and differentiation.

 

NSE solutions address lab and production environments, field deployment and service assurance for wireless and fixed communications networks, including storage networks. NSE’s solutions include one of the largest test instrument portfolios in the industry, with hundreds of thousands of units in active use by major NEMs, operators and services providers worldwide. NSE is leveraging this installed base and knowledge of network management methods and procedures to develop advanced customer experience solutions. These solutions let carriers remotely monitor performance and quality of service and applications performance throughout the entire network. Remote monitoring decreases operating expenses, while early detection increases uptime, preserves revenue, and lets operators better monetize their networks.

NSE customers also include many of the NEMs served by our CCOP segment, including Alcatel-Lucent, Ciena, Cisco Systems, Fujitsu and Huawei. NSE customers also include chip and infrastructure vendors, storage-device manufacturers, storage-network and switch vendors, and deployed private enterprise customers. Storage-segment customers include Brocade, Cisco Systems and EMC.

 

On December 10, 2013, we acquired certain technology and other assets from Trendium, a provider of real-time intelligence solutions for customer experience assurance, asset optimization, and monetization of big data for 4G/Long term evolution (“LTE”) mobile network operators.

 

On January 6, 2014, we acquired Network Instruments, a leading developer of enterprise network and application-performance management solutions for global 2000 companies. Network Instruments extended JDSU’s service enablement solutions to the enterprise, data center and cloud networking markets.

 

We are currently evaluating the impact of recent strategic acquisitions on the reporting structure of our NSE segment.

 

Communications and Commercial Optical Products

 

CCOP is a leading provider of optical communications and commercial laser products and technologies and commercial laser components.

 

Serving telecommunications and enterprise data communications markets, CCOP products include components, modules, subsystems, and solutions for access (local), metro (intracity), long-haul (city-to-city and worldwide), and submarine (undersea) networks, as well as SANs, LANs and WANs. These products enable the transmission and transport of video, audio and text data over high-capacity fiber-optic cables. CCOP maintains leading positions in the fastest-growing optical communications segments, including ROADMs and tunable XFPs and SFP+s. CCOP’s growing portfolio of pluggable transceivers supports LAN/SAN needs and the cloud for customers building proprietary data center networks.

 

37



 

Original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) use CCOP lasers—fiber, diode, direct-diode, diode-pumped solid-state, and gas—that offer low- to high-power output with UV, visible and IR wavelengths. This broad product portfolio addresses the needs of laser clients in applications such as micromachining, materials processing, bio-instrumentation, consumer electronics, graphics, and medical/dental. Core laser technologies include continuous-wave, q-switched and mode-locked lasers addressing application needs from continuous-wave to megahertz repetition rates. Photonic power products transport energy over optical fiber, enabling electromagnetic- and radio-interference-free power and data transmission for remote sensors such as high-voltage line current monitors.

 

Gesture recognition systems use both CCOP’s gesture recognition light source and OSP’s gesture recognition optical filters. These systems simplify the way people interact with technology by enabling the use of natural body gestures, like the wave of a hand, instead of using a device like a mouse or remote control. Emerging markets for gesture recognition include gaming platforms, home entertainment, mobile devices and personal computing.

 

CCOP’s optical communications products customers include Adva, Alcatel-Lucent, Ciena, Cisco Systems, Ericsson, Fujitsu, Huawei, Infinera, Nokia Solutions and Networks, and Tellabs. CCOP’s lasers customers include Amada, ASML, Beckman Coulter, Becton Dickinson, Disco, Electro Scientific Industries, and KLA-Tencor.

 

On January 27, 2014, we acquired Time-Bandwidth Products, a provider of high powered and ultrafast lasers for the industrial and scientific markets. Manufacturers use high-power, ultrafast lasers to create micro parts for consumer electronics and to process semiconductor chips. Use of ultrafast lasers for micromachining applications is being driven primarily by increasing use of consumer electronics and connected devices globally.

 

Optical Security and Performance Products

 

OSP designs, manufactures, and sells products targeting anti-counterfeiting, consumer electronics, government, healthcare, and other markets.

 

OSP’s security offerings for the currency market include Optically Variable Pigment (“OVP®”), Optically Variable Magnetic Pigment (“OVMP®”) and banknote thread substrates. OVP® enables a color-shifting effect used by banknote issuers and security printers worldwide for anti-counterfeiting applications on currency and other high-value documents and products. OVP® protects the currencies of more than 100 countries today.

 

Leveraging its expertise in spectral management and its unique high-precision coating capabilities, OSP improves the performance of a range of products in the consumer-electronics market. For example, gesture recognition devices designed for gaming platforms use OSP optical filters.

 

OSP value-added solutions meet the stringent requirements of commercial and government customers in aerospace and defense. In the aerospace industry, JDSU precision optical filters are a critical component in satellite and spacecraft power- and temperature-control systems. OSP also supplies anti-reflection coatings, beamsplitters, optical filters, laser optics, solar reflectors, and mirrors for a variety of defense and security applications including guidance systems, high-energy laser systems, battlefield eye protection, infrared night-vision systems, and secure optical communications.

 

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013, we made a decision to cease production of certain legacy custom optic products at the end of their lifecycle, including anti-reflection products, solar cell covers, and front-surface mirrors for display and office automation applications as well as certain infrared and box coater solutions. We expect to complete our phase out of these legacy products by the end of the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014.

 

OSP serves customers such as 3M, Barco, Kingston, Lockheed Martin, Northrup Grumman, Pan Pacific, Seiko Epson, and SICPA.

Net Revenue

 

Net revenue increased by $12.7 million, or 3.1%, during the three months ended March 29, 2014 compared to the same period a year ago. This increase was primarily due to an increase in our CCOP segment, as discussed below.

 

39



 

NSE net revenue decreased by $1.9 million, or 1.1%, during the three months ended March 29, 2014 compared to the same period a year ago. This decrease was driven by $11.0 million of net revenue decreases primarily from our Network Visibility and Control and Services product lines. These decreases were primarily due to the fact that the prior period reflected net revenue from a significant one-time project in our Network Visibility and Control product line, coupled with lower current period demand in our Services product line for hardware services. This was partially offset by $9.1 million of net revenue increases primarily from our Mobility, Cloud and Data Center and Fiber product lines. These increases were primarily due to increased demand from key customers in our Mobility and Fiber product lines and new products in our Cloud and Data Center product line from the acquisition of Network Instruments in the current period.

 

CCOP net revenue increased by $15.4 million, or 8.6%, during the three months ended March 29, 2014 compared to the same period a year ago. This increase was driven by $31.6 million of net revenue increases primarily from our Gesture Recognition Light Source, Circuit Packs and Pluggable product lines. These increases were primarily due to (i) higher demand for our Gesture Recognition Light Source product line related to our customer’s next generation gaming console, (ii) higher demand from key customers in our Circuit Packs product line and (iii) higher demand for new products from key customers in our Pluggables product line. These increases were partially offset by $16.2 million of net revenue decreases primarily due to lower deployments by customers of our ROADMs product line and lower demand from key customers in our Passive Components product line.

 

OSP net revenue decreased by $0.8 million, or 1.5%, during the three months ended March 29, 2014 compared to the same period a year ago. This decrease was driven by $6.1 million of net revenue decreases primarily from our Anti-Counterfeiting product line driven by lower cyclical demand for our currency products. This decrease was partially offset by $5.3 million of net revenue increases primarily from our Consumer and Industrial product line driven by last-time buys of products impacted by our plan to exit certain legacy product offerings by the end of the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014 and higher demand for our Gesture Recognition Filters.

 

Net revenue increased by $39.0 million, or 3.1%, during the nine months ended March 29, 2014 compared to the same period a year ago. This increase was primarily due to an increase in our CCOP segment, as discussed below.

 

NSE net revenue remained relatively flat during the nine months ended March 29, 2014 compared to the same period a year ago, increasing by $0.1 million. This increase was driven by $29.8 million of net revenue increases primarily from our Media Access and Content and Fiber product lines. These increases were primarily due to higher demand from a key customer of our Media Access and Content product line and increased spending for the deployment of LTE networks by key customers of our Fiber product line. This was partially offset by $29.7 million of net revenue decreases primarily from our Network Visibility and Control and Ethernet product lines. These decreases were primarily due to the fact that the prior period reflected net revenue from a significant one-time project in our Network Visibility and Control product line and reduced current period spending from key customers in our Ethernet product line.

 

CCOP net revenue increased by $37.3 million, or 6.7%, during the nine months ended March 29, 2014 compared to the same period a year ago. This increase was driven by $102.4 million of net revenue increases primarily from our Gesture Recognition Light Source, Circuit Packs and Pluggable product lines. These increases were primarily due to (i) higher demand for our Gesture Recognition Light Source product line related to our customer’s next generation gaming console, (ii) higher demand from key customers in our Circuit Packs product line and (iii) higher demand for new products from key customers in our Pluggables product line. This was partially offset by $65.1 million of net revenue decreases primarily from our ROADMs, Passive Components and Tunables product lines. These decreases were primarily due to lower deployments by customers of our ROADMs product line and lower demand from key customers in our Passive Components and Tunables product lines.

 

OSP net revenue increased by $1.6 million, or 1.0%, during the nine months ended March 29, 2014 compared to the same period a year ago. This increase was driven by $11.5 million of net revenue increases primarily from our Consumer and Industrial product line driven by last-time buys of products impacted by our restructuring plan to exit certain legacy product offerings by the end of the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014 and higher demand for our Gesture Recognition Filters. This was partially offset by $9.9 million of net revenue decreases primarily from our Anti-Counterfeiting product line driven by lower cyclical demand in the current period.

 

Going forward, we expect to continue to encounter a number of industry and market risks and uncertainties that may limit our visibility, and consequently, our ability to predict future revenue, profitability and general financial performance, and that could create quarter over quarter variability in our financial measures. For example, continued economic issues in Europe have led to uncertain demand in our NSE and optical communications product portfolios, and we cannot predict when or to what extent this uncertainty will be resolved. Our revenues, profitability, and general financial performance may also be affected by: (a) strong pricing pressures, particularly within our optical communications markets, due to, among other things, a highly concentrated customer base, increasing competition, particularly from Asia-based competitors, and a general commoditization trend for certain products; (b) high product mix variability, particularly in our CCOP and NSE markets, which affects revenue and gross margin; (c) fluctuations in customer buying patterns, which cause demand, revenue and profitability volatility; and (d) the current trend of communication industry consolidation, which is expected to continue, that directly affects our CCOP and NSE customer bases and adds additional risk and uncertainty to our financial and business projections.

Net revenue is assigned to geographic regions based on customer shipment locations. Net revenue from customers in the Americas during the three months ended March 29, 2014 and March 30, 2013 included net revenue from the United States of $152.0 million and $144.1 million, respectively. Net revenue from customers in the Americas during the nine months ended March 29, 2014 and March 30, 2013 included net revenue from the United States of $454.6 million and $469.0 million, respectively.

 

Net revenue from customers outside the Americas during the three months ended March 29, 2014 and March 30, 2013 represented 53.0% and 52.1% of net revenue, respectively. Net revenue from customers outside the Americas during the nine months ended March 29, 2014 and March 30, 2013, represented 52.9% and 50.8% of net revenue, respectively. We expect revenue from customers outside of North America to continue to be an important part of our overall net revenue and an increasing focus for net revenue growth opportunities.

 

Gross Margin

 

Gross margin increased 5.9 percentage points during the three months ended March 29, 2014 from 38.3% in the same period a year ago to 44.2% in the current period. The increase was primarily due to (i) the fact that the prior period reflected inventory charges and accelerated amortization of acquired developed technology related to the strategic exit of NSE’s low-speed wireline product line, (ii) improvement in NSE gross margin driven by a reduction in manufacturing variances and improved cost efficiencies realized in the current period through the consolidation of our contract manufacturing partners during the second half of fiscal 2013 and (iii) a reduction in amortization of developed technology in the current period driven by certain significant intangible assets becoming fully amortized in the first quarter of fiscal 2014. This increase was partially offset by a change in segment mix as CCOP net revenue, which generates lower gross margin generally than our other two segments, represented a higher percentage of consolidated net revenue in the current period.

 

Gross margin increased 3.2 percentage points during the nine months ended March 29, 2014 from 41.2% in the same period a year ago to 44.4% in the current period. The increase was primarily due to (i) a reduction in amortization of developed technology in the current period due to certain significant intangible assets becoming fully amortized in the first quarter of fiscal 2014, (ii) the absence of charges in the current period related to the strategic exit from NSE’s low-speed wireline product line that were reflected in the prior period as referenced above and (iii) improvement in NSE gross margin driven by a reduction in manufacturing variances and improved cost efficiencies realized in the current period through the consolidation of our contract manufacturing partners during the second half of fiscal 2013. This increase was partially offset by a change in segment mix as CCOP net revenue, which generates lower gross margin generally than our other two segments, represented a higher percentage of consolidated net revenue in the current period.

 

As discussed in more detail under “Net Revenue” above, we sell products in certain markets that are consolidating, undergoing product, architectural and business model transitions, have high customer concentrations, are highly competitive (increasingly due to Asia-Pacific-based competition), are price sensitive and/or are affected by customer seasonal and mix variant buying patterns. Further, we are continuing significant organic investments in research and development (as discussed under “Research and Development” below) and have made a number of strategic acquisitions to add new products and capabilities to our portfolio, with a goal of driving towards higher gross margin solutions. We expect these factors to continue to result in variability of our gross margin.

Research and Development (“R&D”)

 

R&D expense increased by $8.3 million, or 12.6%, during the three months ended March 29, 2014 compared to the same period a year ago. This increase was primarily driven by a $6.8 million increase in labor and benefits expense primarily due to higher headcount and corresponding compensation associated with our ongoing investment in R&D and strategic acquisitions, coupled with a $1.6 million increase in materials spending primarily in our CCOP segment.

 

R&D expense increased by $25.1 million, or 13.1%, during the nine months ended March 29, 2014 compared to the same period a year ago. This increase was primarily driven by a $20.4 million increase in labor and benefits expense primarily due to higher headcount and corresponding compensation associated with our ongoing investment in R&D and strategic acquisitions. Additionally, R&D offsets from CCOP customer-funded development projects were $2.9 million higher in the same period a year ago, which contributed to the increase in the current period.

 

We believe that continuing our investments in R&D is critical to attaining our strategic objectives. We plan to continue to invest in R&D and new products that will further differentiate us in the marketplace and expect our investment in dollar terms to increase in future quarters.

 

Selling, General and Administrative (“SG&A”)

 

SG&A expense increased by $6.1 million, or 5.7%, during the three months ended March 29, 2014 compared to the same period a year ago. This increase was primarily driven by a $5.2 million increase in labor and benefits expense primarily due to higher headcount and corresponding compensation related to our strategic acquisitions. This was partially offset by a $1.1 million decrease in acquisition-related costs and a $0.5 million reduction in other SG&A expenses primarily driven by lower external costs due to the insourcing of certain information technology (“IT”) applications in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013.

 

SG&A expense increased by $12.1 million, or 3.8%, during the nine months ended March 29, 2014 compared to the same period a year ago. This increase was primarily driven by a $15.8 million increase in labor and benefits expense primarily due to higher headcount and corresponding compensation related to our strategic acquisitions. This was partially offset by a $4.1 million decrease in external costs due to the insourcing of certain IT applications in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013 and a $1.2 million decrease in acquisition-related costs.

 

We intend to continue to focus on reducing our SG&A expense as a percentage of revenue. However, we have in the recent past experienced, and may continue to experience in the future, certain non-core expenses, such as mergers and acquisitions-related expenses and litigation expenses, which could increase our SG&A expenses and potentially impact our profitability expectations in any particular quarter.

 

Restructuring and Related Charges

 

We continue to reduce costs through targeted restructuring efforts intended to consolidate our operations, rationalize the manufacturing of our products and align our businesses in response to market conditions. We estimate annualized cost savings of approximately $23.2 million, excluding any one-time charges as a result of the restructuring activities initiated in the past year. Refer to “Note 11. Restructuring and Related Charges” for more detail.

 

During the three and nine months ended March 29, 2014, we incurred restructuring and related charges of $3.6 million and $3.8 million, respectively. During the three and nine months ended March 30, 2013, we incurred restructuring and related charges of $0.4 million and $6.1 million, respectively.

 

During the third quarter of fiscal 2014, we incurred restructuring and related charges of $3.6 million. The charges are a combination of new and previously announced restructuring plans and are primarily the result of the following:

 

·                  During the third quarter of fiscal 2014, Management approved a plan in the NSE segment to realign its services, support and product resources in response to market conditions in the mobile assurance market and to increase focus on software products and next generation solutions through acquisitions and R&D. As a result, a restructuring charge of $3.3 million was recorded for severance and employee benefits for 63 employees primarily in SG&A and manufacturing functions located in North America, Latin America, Asia and Europe. As of March 29, 2014, 34 employees have been terminated. Payments related to the remaining severance and benefits accrual are expected to be paid by the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2015.

 

42



 

·                  We recorded a $0.7 million charge to adjust the lease liability accrual for the Germantown location related to the NSE Lease Restructuring Plan approved in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013.

 

·                  We recorded a $0.4 million benefit to adjust the accrual balance for the NSE Operation and Repair Outsourcing Restructuring Plan approved in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012.

 

During the third quarter of fiscal 2013, we incurred restructuring and related charges of $0.4 million. These charges are primarily the result of the following:

 

·                  Management approved the CCOP Outsourcing Plan to transition certain functions related to the CCOP segment to an offshore contract manufacturer to align with our continuous efforts to improve supply chain optimization. As a result, a restructuring charge of $0.9 million was recorded for severance and employee benefits for 46 employees primarily in manufacturing, R&D and SG&A functions. As of March 30, 2013, 4 employees have been terminated. The employees being affected are located in the United States. Payments related to remaining severance and benefits accrual are expected to be paid by the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2015.

 

·                  This change was offset by a benefit of $0.5 million for severance and benefits, primarily related to the NSE Operation and Repair Outsourcing Restructuring Plan announced in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012 and the NSE Manufacturing Support Consolidation Plan announced in the third quarter of fiscal 2012.

 

During the nine months ended March 29, 2014, we recorded $3.8 million in restructuring and related charges. The charges are a combination of new and previously announced restructuring plans and are primarily the result of the following:

 

·                  $4.8 million for severance and benefits for the Central Finance and IT Plan announced in the second quarter of fiscal 2014 and for the NSE Product Strategy Restructuring Plan announced in the current quarter. These charges were slightly offset by a benefit of $0.7 million relating to a reduction in the number of employees impacted by the OSP Operational Realignment Plan approved during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013.

 

·                  $0.8 million benefit to adjust the lease liability accrual for the Germantown location related to the NSE Lease Restructuring Plan approved in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013.

 

During the nine months ended March 30, 2013, we recorded $6.1 million in restructuring and related charges. The charges are primarily the result of the following:

 

·                  $3.2 million for severance and benefits related to the CCOP Outsourcing Plan announced in the current quarter, the NSE Wireless Business Plan announced in the second quarter of fiscal 2013, and the CCOP CPV plan announced during the first quarter of fiscal 2013 and $1.6 million of additional severance and employee benefits arising primarily to adjust the accrual for the NSE Operation and Repair Outsourcing Restructuring and the NSE Manufacturing Support Consolidation plans announced in the fourth and third quarters of fiscal 2012, respectively.

 

·                  $0.8 million for transfer costs and lease construction costs in NSE which were the result of the repair outsourcing initiative announced by Management during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012.

 

·                  $0.5 million for the exit of two leased sites in NSE for the plan announced during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012.

 

Our restructuring and other lease exit cost obligations are net of sublease income or lease settlement estimates of approximately $5.0 million. Our ability to generate sublease income, as well as our ability to terminate lease obligations and recognize the anticipated related savings, is highly dependent upon the economic conditions, particularly commercial real estate market conditions in certain geographies, at the time we negotiate the lease termination and sublease arrangements with third parties as well as the performances by such third parties of their respective obligations. While the amount we have accrued represents the best estimate of the remaining obligations we expect to incur in connection with these plans, estimates are subject to change. Routine adjustments are required and may be required in the future as conditions and facts change through the implementation period. If adverse macroeconomic conditions continue, particularly as they pertain to the commercial real estate market, or if, for any reason, tenants under subleases fail to perform their obligations, we may be required to reduce estimated future sublease income and adjust the estimated amounts of future settlement agreements, and accordingly, increase estimated costs to exit certain facilities. Amounts related to the lease expense, net of anticipated sublease proceeds, will be paid over the respective lease terms through fiscal 2019.

Interest and Other Income (Expense), Net

 

Interest and other income (expense), net was $0.6 million during the three months ended March 29, 2014 as compared to $(0.9) million during the same period a year ago. This $1.5 million change was primarily due to a currency exchange loss of $2.0 million in the prior period compared to a currency exchange loss of $0.3 million in the current period driven by improved balance sheet hedging, and the fact that the prior period reflected a $0.7 million realized loss in connection with the repurchase of $50.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 1% Senior Convertible Notes due 2026 (the “2026 Notes”) which were fully repurchased and redeemed in fiscal 2013. This was partially offset by a decrease in other income of $0.9 million primarily due to the receipt of a deposit in the prior period.

 

Interest and other income (expense), net was $0.4 million during the nine months ended March 29, 2014 as compared to $(3.7) million during the same period a year ago. This $4.1 million change was primarily driven by the fact that the prior period reflected a $4.1 million realized loss in connection with the repurchase of $150.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 2026 Notes which were fully repurchased and redeemed in fiscal 2013 and a $0.5 million reduction in other expense primarily due to the absence of commitment fees due under the revolving credit facility which the Company terminated in the first quarter of fiscal 2014. This was partially offset by a decrease in other income of $1.1 million primarily due to the receipt of a deposit in the prior period.

 

Interest Expense

 

Interest expense increased by $3.5 million, or 83.3%, during the three months ended March 29, 2014 compared to the same period a year ago. The increase was primarily due to accretion of the debt discount on our 0.625% Senior Convertible Notes due 2033 (“the 2033 Notes”) in the current period as compared to the accretion on our 2026 Notes in the same period a year ago. The increase was primarily driven by the fact that the unamortized debt discount of our 2033 Notes in the current period was significantly higher than that of our 2026 Notes in the prior period. During the three months ended March 29, 2014 and March 30, 2013 we accreted debt discount of $6.0 million and $2.8 million, respectively.

 

Interest expense increased by $5.9 million, or 38.3%, during the nine months ended March 29, 2014 compared to the same period a year ago. The increase was primarily due to an increase in accretion of the debt discount as referenced above, coupled with a $1.3 million write-off of unamortized issuance costs related to the termination of the revolving credit facility in the first quarter of fiscal 2014. During the nine months ended March 29, 2014 and March 30, 2013, we accreted debt discount of $14.6 million and $10.6 million, respectively.

 

Provision for Income Tax

 

We recorded an income tax benefit of $17.2 million and $13.7 million for the three and nine months ended March 29, 2014, respectively. We recorded an income tax expense of $1.6 million and $9.1 million for the three and nine months ended March 30, 2013, respectively.

 

The income tax benefit recorded for the three and nine months ended March 29, 2014, primarily relates to income tax in certain foreign and state jurisdictions based on our forecasted pre-tax income for the year in those locations offset by the recognition of $21.7 million of uncertain tax benefits related to deferred tax assets due to the expiration of the statute of limitations in a non-US jurisdiction. A tax benefit of $5.1 million was recorded for the nine months ended March 29, 2014, related to the income tax intraperiod tax allocation rules in relation to other comprehensive income. In accordance with authoritative guidance, the year to date benefit may reverse during the year.

 

The income tax expense recorded for the three and nine months ended March 30, 2013, primarily relates to income tax in certain foreign and state jurisdictions based on the Company’s forecasted pre-tax income for the year in those locations.

 

The income tax benefit and expense recorded differs from the expected tax expense or benefit that would be calculated by applying the federal statutory rate to our income or loss before income taxes primarily due to the increases in valuation allowance for deferred tax assets attributable to our domestic and foreign losses from continuing operations, the income tax benefit recorded in continuing operations under the income tax intraperiod tax allocation rules, and the recognition of the unrecognized tax benefits.

 

As of March 29, 2014 and June 29, 2013, our unrecognized tax benefits totaled $58.4 million and $80.7 million, respectively, and are included in deferred taxes and other non-current tax liabilities, net. We had $23.6 million accrued for the payment of interest and penalties at March 29, 2014. The unrecognized tax benefits that may be recognized during the next twelve months are approximately $21.4 million.

Discontinued Operations

 

During the second quarter of fiscal 2013, we closed the sale of the Hologram Business, previously within the OSP reportable segment, and received gross proceeds of $11.5 million in cash, subject to an earnout clause requiring the buyer to pay up to a maximum additional amount of $4.0 million if the revenue generated by the business exceeds a pre-determined target amount during the one-year period immediately following the closing. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014, we submitted an arbitration demand to resolve a dispute regarding the amount we are owed from the buyer under the earnout clause.

 

Net revenue of the Hologram Business for the nine months ended March 30, 2013 was $5.2 million. Net loss for the nine months ended March 30, 2013 was $1.0 million. There was no tax effect associated with the discontinued operation for any periods presented.

NSE

 

NSE operating margin decreased 1.8 percentage points during the three months ended March 29, 2014 from 7.5% in the same period a year ago to 5.7% in the current period. The decrease in operating margin was primarily due to an increase in operating expenses driven by higher headcount primarily related to strategic acquisitions in fiscal 2014 and ongoing R&D investments primarily in our Media Access and Content product line. This was partially offset by an improvement in gross margin driven by a reduction in manufacturing variances and improved cost efficiencies realized in the current period from the consolidation of our contract manufacturing partners during the second half of fiscal 2013.

 

NSE operating margin decreased 2.6 percentage points during nine months ended March 29, 2014 from 12.1% in the same period a year ago to 9.5% in the current period. The decrease in operating margin was primarily due to an increase in operating expenses driven by higher headcount primarily related to strategic acquisitions in fiscal 2014 and ongoing R&D investments primarily in our Media Access and Content product line. This was partially offset by an improvement in gross margin driven by a reduction in manufacturing variances and improved cost efficiencies realized in the current period from the consolidation of our contract manufacturing partners during the second half of fiscal 2013.

 

CCOP

 

CCOP operating margin increased 0.8 percentage points during the three months ended March 29, 2014 from 10.7% in the same period a year ago to 11.5% in the current period. The increase in operating margin was primarily due to an overall increase in CCOP net revenue as referenced above and an improvement in gross margin driven by a favorable product mix and improvements in yields. This was partially offset by an increase in R&D expense primarily due to higher headcount associated with our ongoing R&D investments in the current period.

 

45



 

CCOP operating margin increased 0.8 percentage points during nine months ended March 29, 2014 from 11.5% in the same period a year ago to 12.3% in the current period. The increase in operating margin was primarily due to improvement in gross margin driven by improvement in yields and an overall increase in CCOP net revenue as referenced above. This was partially offset by an increase in R&D expense primarily due to higher headcount associated with our ongoing R&D investments and higher R&D offsets in the same period a year ago as referenced above.

 

OSP

 

OSP operating margin remained relatively flat during the three months ended March 29, 2014, decreasing by 0.2 percentage points. The decrease in operating margin was primarily due to an unfavorable product mix, partially offset by a reduction in SG&A expense driven by lower labor and benefits expenses.

 

OSP operating margin increased 0.7 percentage points during nine months ended March 29, 2014 from 35.8% in the same period a year ago to 36.5% in the current period. The increase in operating margin was primarily due to improvement in gross margin driven by a reduction in SG&A expense due to lower labor and benefits expenses.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Our cash investments are made in accordance with an investment policy approved by the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors. In general, our investment policy requires that securities purchased be rated A-1/P-1, A/A2 or better. In November, 2012, the policy was amended to allow an allocation to securities rated A-2/P-2, BBB/Baa2 or better, with such allocation not to exceed 10% of any investment portfolio. Securities that are downgraded subsequent to purchase are evaluated and may be sold or held at Management’s discretion. No security may have an effective maturity that exceeds 37 months, and the average duration of our holdings may not exceed 18 months. At any time, no more than 5.0% or $5.0 million, whichever is greater, of each of our investment portfolios may be concentrated in a single issuer other than the U.S. or sovereign governments or agencies. Our investments in debt securities and marketable equity securities are primarily classified as available-for-sale investments or trading assets and are recorded at fair value. The cost of securities sold is based on the specific identification method. Unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale investments are recorded as other comprehensive income (loss) and are reported as a separate component of stockholders’ equity. We did not hold any investments in auction rate securities, mortgage backed securities, collateralized debt obligations, or variable rate demand notes at March 29, 2014 and virtually all debt securities held were of investment grade (at least BBB-/Baa3). As of March 29, 2014, U.S. entities owned approximately 83.9% of our cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and restricted cash.

 

As of March 29, 2014, the majority of our cash investments have maturities of 90 days or less and are of high credit quality. Although we intend to hold these investments to maturity, in the event that we are required to sell any of these securities under adverse market conditions, losses could be recognized on such sales. During the nine months ended March 29, 2014, we have not realized material investment losses but can provide no assurance that the value or the liquidity of our investments will not be impacted by adverse conditions in the financial markets. In addition, we maintain cash balances in operating accounts that are with third party financial institutions. These balances in the U.S. may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance limits. While we monitor the cash balances in our operating accounts and adjust the cash balances as appropriate, these cash balances could be impacted if the underlying financial institutions fail.

 

As of March 29, 2014, we had a combined balance of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and restricted cash of $926.2 million, an increase of $410.3 million from June 29, 2013 primarily due to our issuance of the 2033 Notes and $126.4 million of cash provided by operating activities, partially offset by a $100.0 million share repurchase in the first quarter of fiscal 2014. Cash and cash equivalents increased by $33.5 million in the nine months ended March 29, 2014 due to $557.2 million of cash provided by financing activities and $126.4 million of cash provided by operating activities, partially offset by $651.8 million of cash used in investing activities.

 

During the nine months ended March 29, 2014, cash provided by operating activities was $126.4 million, resulting from our net income adjusted for non-cash items such as depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation of $173.7 million, and changes in operating assets and liabilities that used $47.3 million. Changes in operating assets and liabilities related primarily to a decrease in accrued payroll and related expenses of $33.0 million due to timing of salary and variable incentive payments, a decrease in accrued expenses and other current and non-current liabilities of $23.2 million, a decrease in income taxes payable of $22.2 million, partially offset by an increase in accounts payable of $23.2 million due to lower payment activity in the current quarter and increase in deferred revenue current and non-current of $9.4 million.

 

46



 

During the nine months ended March 30, 2013, cash provided by operating activities was $130.7 million, resulting from our net income adjusted for non-cash items such as depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation of $131.1 million, and changes in operating assets and liabilities that used $0.4 million. Changes in operating assets and liabilities related primarily to a decrease in accrued payroll and related expenses of $24.3 million due to timing of bonus and salary payments and lower bonus accrual and a decrease in accrued expenses and other current and non-current liabilities of $15.1 million, offset by a decrease in inventory of $19.8 million and an decrease in accounts receivable of $17.2 million driven by our collection efforts.

 

During the nine months ended March 29, 2014, cash used in investing activities was $651.8 million, primarily due to $885.1 million of purchases of available-for-sale securities largely driven by the investment of proceeds from the 2033 Notes, $219.3 million of cash used for the acquisitions of Trendium, Network Instruments and Time Bandwidth Products, and $68.1 million of purchases of property, plant and equipment. These were partially offset by proceeds from maturities of available-for-sale investments of $327.7 million and sales of available-for-sale investments of $186.8 million in the current period.

 

During the nine months ended March 30, 2013 cash used for investing activities was $150.5 million, primarily related to cash used for the acquisitions of GenComm and Arieso of $83.2 million, cash used for the purchase of property, plant and equipment of $46.7 million and net cash outflows used for the purchase of available-for-sale investments of $32.9 million, offset by net proceeds from sale of the Hologram Business of $11.2 million. Since we continue to invest in new technology, laboratory equipment, and manufacturing capacity to support revenue growth opportunities, investments were made during the nine months ended March 30, 2013 to increase manufacturing capacity in Asia and the U.S., to set up and improve facilities, and to upgrade information technology systems.

 

During the nine months ended March 29, 2014, cash provided by financing activities was $557.2 million, primarily related to the $650.0 million proceeds from the 2033 Notes partially offset by the repurchase of 7.4 million shares of our outstanding common stock for $100.0 million in the current period.

 

During the nine months ended March 30, 2013, cash used for financing activities was $125.3 million, primarily related to the repurchase of our 1% Senior Convertible Notes in the amount of $145.8 million, offset by proceeds from the exercise of stock options and the issuance of common stock under our employee stock purchase plan of $21.3 million.

 

We believe that our existing cash balances and investments will be sufficient to meet our liquidity and capital spending requirements over the next twelve months. However, there are a number of factors that could positively or negatively impact our liquidity position, including:

 

·                  global economic conditions which affect demand for our products and services and impact the financial stability of our suppliers and customers;

·                  changes in accounts receivable, inventory or other operating assets and liabilities which affect our working capital;

·                  increase in capital expenditure to support the revenue growth opportunity of our business;

·                  the tendency of customers to delay payments or to negotiate favorable payment term to manage their own liquidity positions;

·                  timing of payments to our suppliers;

·                  factoring or sale of accounts receivable;

·                  volatility in fixed income, credit, and foreign exchange markets which impact the liquidity and valuation of our investment portfolios;

·                  possible investments or acquisitions of complementary businesses, products or technologies;

·                  issuance or repurchase of debt or equity securities;

·                  potential funding of pension liabilities either voluntarily or as required by law or regulation, and

·                  compliance with covenants and other terms and conditions related to our financing arrangements.

 

Contractual Obligations

 

During the third quarter of fiscal 2014, there were no material changes to the contractual obligations previously disclosed in Part II, Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 29, 2013, except for those occurring in the ordinary course of our business.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements, other than the guarantees discussed in “Note 16. Commitments and Contingencies.”

Employee Stock-based Benefit Plans

 

Our stock-based benefit plans are a broad-based, long-term retention program that is intended to attract and retain employees and align stockholder and employee interests. Refer to “Note 14. Stock-Based Compensation” for more information.

 

Pension and Other Post-retirement Benefits

 

We sponsor significant pension plans for certain past and present employees primarily in the U.K., Germany and Switzerland.  We are also responsible for the non-pension post-retirement benefit obligation of a previously acquired subsidiary. Most of these plans have been closed to new participants and no additional service costs are being accrued, except for the plans assumed in connection with acquisitions during fiscal 2010 and the third quarter of fiscal 2014. The U.K. plan and Switzerland plan are partially funded and the German plans, which were established as “pay-as-you-go” plans, are unfunded. The authoritative guidance requires the recognition of the funded status of the pension plans and non-pension post-retirement benefit plans (retirement-related benefit plans) as an asset or a liability in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The authoritative guidance also requires the recognition of changes in that funded status in the year in which they occur through the gains and (losses) not affecting retained earnings, net of tax, and the recognition of previously unrecognized gains/(losses), prior service costs/(credits) and transition assets as a component of Accumulated gains and (losses) not affecting retained earnings. The funded status of a retirement plan is the difference between the projected benefit obligation and the fair value of its plan assets. The projected benefit obligation is the actuarial present value of all benefits attributed by the plan’s benefit formula to employee service. As of March 29, 2014, our pension plans were under funded by $100.8 million since the projected benefit obligation exceeded the fair value of its plan assets. Similarly, we had a liability of $0.9 million related to our non-pension post-retirement benefit plan. Pension plan assets are managed by external third parties and we monitor the performance of our investment managers. As of March 29, 2014, the fair value of plan assets had increased approximately 5.0% since June 29, 2013, our most recent fiscal year end.

 

A key actuarial assumption is the discount rate. Changes in the discount rate impact the interest cost component of the net periodic benefit cost calculation and, due to the fact that the projected benefit obligation (“PBO”) is calculated on a net present value basis, changes in the discount rate will also impact the current PBO. Decreases in the discount rate will generally increase pre-tax cost, recognized expense and the PBO. Increases in the discount rate tend to have the opposite effect. We estimate a 50 basis point decrease or increase in the discount rate would cause a corresponding increase or decrease, respectively, in the PBO of approximately $7.7 million based upon June 29, 2013 data.

 

In estimating the expected return on plan assets, we consider historical returns on plan assets, adjusted for forward-looking considerations, inflation assumptions and the impact of active management of the plan’s invested assets. While it is not possible to accurately predict future rate movements, we believe our current assumptions are appropriate. Refer to “Note 15. Employee Defined Benefit Plans” for more details.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risks

 

We are exposed to various market risks, including changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. Derivatives and other financial instruments are used to mitigate exposures subject to market risk. We do not enter into derivatives or other financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

 

Foreign Exchange Risk

 

We utilize foreign exchange forward contracts and other instruments, including option contracts, to hedge foreign currency risk associated with foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities, primarily certain short-term intercompany receivables and payables. Our foreign exchange forward contracts and other instruments are accounted for as derivatives whereby the fair value of the contracts are reflected as Prepayments and other current assets or Other current liabilities in Consolidated Balance Sheets and the associated gains and losses are reflected in Interest and other income (expense), net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.  Our hedging programs reduce, but do not eliminate, the impact of currency exchange rate movements. The gains and losses on those derivatives are expected to be offset by re-measurement gains and losses on the foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities.

 

Forward contracts, most with a term of less than 120 days, were transacted near quarter-end and therefore, the fair value of the contracts is approximately zero at quarter-end. The change in the fair value of these foreign currency forward contracts is recorded as income or loss in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations as a component of Interest and other income (expense), net.

The counterparties to these hedging transactions are creditworthy multinational financial institutions. We actively manage these counterparty exposures by seeking to diversify our hedge positions across multiple counterparties to avoid concentration of risk and by monitoring such exposure on an on-going basis. Nevertheless, under current market conditions, failure of one or more of these financial institutions could result in losses.

 

Notwithstanding our efforts to mitigate some foreign exchange risks, we do not hedge all of our foreign currency exposures, and there can be no assurances that our mitigating activities related to the exposures that we do hedge will adequately protect us against the risks associated with foreign currency fluctuations.

 

Investments

 

We maintain an investment portfolio in a variety of financial instruments, including, but not limited to, U.S. government and agency bonds, corporate obligations, money market funds, asset-backed securities, and other investment-grade securities. The majority of these investments pay a fixed rate of interest.  The securities in the investment portfolio are subject to market price risk due to changes in interest rates, perceived issuer creditworthiness, marketability, and other factors. These investments are generally classified as available-for-sale and, consequently, are recorded on our Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value with unrealized gains or losses reported as a separate component of Stockholders’ equity. We did not hold any investments in auction rate securities, mortgage backed securities, collateralized demand obligations, or variable rate demand notes at March 29, 2014.

 

Investments in both fixed-rate and floating-rate interest earning instruments carry a degree of interest rate risk. The fair market values of our fixed-rate securities decline if interest rates rise, while floating-rate securities may produce less income than expected if interest rates fall. Due in part to these factors, our future investment income may be less than expectations because of changes in interest rates or we may suffer losses in principal if forced to sell securities that have experienced a decline in market value because of changes in interest rates.

 

Debt

 

The fair market value of the 2033 Notes is subject to interest rate and market price risk due to the convertible feature of the notes and other factors. Generally, the fair market value of fixed interest rate debt will increase as interest rates fall and decrease as interest rates rise. The fair market value of the notes may also increase as the market price of JDSU stock rises and decreases as the market price of the stock falls. Interest rate and JDSU stock price changes affect the fair market value of the notes but do not impact our financial position, cash flows or results of operations. Based on quoted market prices, as of March 29, 2014, the fair market value of the 2033 Notes was $683.2 million. Refer to “Note 10. Debt and Letters of Credit” for more details.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures:  The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

 

Internal Control Over Financial Reporting:  There have not been any changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

 

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

 

The Company is subject to a variety of claims and suits that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of our business. While Management currently believes that resolving claims against the Company, individually or in aggregate, will not have a material adverse impact on its financial position, results of operations or statement of cash flows, these matters are subject to inherent uncertainties and Management’s view of these matters may change in the future. If an unfavorable final outcome occurs, it is possible there could be a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows for the period in which the effect becomes reasonably estimable.

 

Item 1A. Risk Factors

 

There have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report for the fiscal year ended June 29, 2103.
