NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Note 1. Basis of Presentation

The financial information as of March 31,September 30, 2006 and for the ninethree months ended March 31,September 30, 2006 and 2005 is unaudited, but includes all normal and recurring adjustments that 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 for the year ended June 30, 2005.2006.

The balance sheet as of June 30, 20052006 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 31,September 30, 2006 may not be indicative of results for the year ending June 30, 20062007 or any future periods.

Reverse Stock Split:

On September 21, 2006, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a 1-for-8 reverse split of its common stock, following approval by the Company’s stockholders on December 1, 2005. The reverse stock split was effective at 11:59 pm on October 16, 2006 before trading began on Tuesday, October 17, 2006. As a result, the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock was reduced from approximately 1.7 billion to approximately 211 million shares. The par value of the common stock was not affected by the reverse stock split and remains at $0.001 per share. Consequently, on the Company’s balance sheet, the aggregate par value of the issued common stock was reduced by reclassifying the par value amount of the eliminated shares of common stock to Additional Paid-in Capital. The Company will pay cash in lieu of any fractional shares to which a holder of common stock would otherwise be entitled as a result of the reverse stock split, including fractional shares for the in-the-money stock options. The number of authorized shares of common stock was reduced from 6 billion to 1 billion. The exchangeable shares of JDS Uniphase Canada Ltd., a subsidiary of the Company listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange, took effect a comparable reverse stock split at the same ratio of 1-for-8. The reverse split will reduce the number of exchangeable shares outstanding from approximately 51 million to approximately 6 million. All per share amounts and outstanding shares, including all common stock equivalents (stock options, other equity incentive awards, equity compensation plans, and convertible notes) have been restated in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for all periods presented to reflect the reverse stock split.

The Company bases estimates on historical experience and on various assumptions about the future that are believed to be reasonable based on available information.

In the event that estimates or assumptions prove to differ from actual results, adjustments are made in subsequent periods to reflect more current information.

Net Loss Per Share

As the Company incurred net losses for the three months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, potential dilutive securities from stock options and the employee stock purchase plan (“ESPP”) totaling 17.1 million and 19.1 million equivalent shares, respectively, have been excluded from the diluted net loss per share computations as their effect was deemed anti-dilutive. In addition, unvested restricted stock awards are excluded from the diluted net loss per share as they are anti-dilutive. In

Note 2. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

SFAS No. 123(R)SAB 108

Effective July 3, 2005, the first day of fiscalIn September 2006, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 123, “Share-Based Payment (Revised 2004)”(“SFAS 123(R)”) on a modified prospective basis. As a result, the Company began to include stock-based compensation costs in its results of operations starting the quarter ended September 30, 2005. See Note 4. “Stock-Based Compensation” for more details.

SAB 107

In March 2005, the Securities Exchange Commission (“SEC”)SEC staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107, “Share-Based Payment,108 “Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements” (“SAB 107”108”). SAB 107 provides guidance regarding108 requires that public companies utilize a “dual-approach” to assessing the interactions between SFAS 123(R) and certain SEC rules and regulations, including guidance related to valuation methods, the classification of compensation expense, non-GAAP financial measures, the accounting for income taxquantitative effects of share-based payment arrangements, disclosures in Management’s Discussionfinancial misstatements. This dual approach includes both an income statement focused assessment and Analysis (“MD&A”) subsequent to adoption of SFAS 123(R), and modifications of options prior to the adoption of SFAS 123(R).a balance sheet focused assessment. The Company began adhering to the guidance in SAB 107 upon108 must be applied to annual financial statements for fiscal years ending after November 15, 2006. The Company is currently assessing the impact of adopting SAB 108 but does not expect that it will have a material effect on its consolidated financial position or results of operations.

SFAS No. 157

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”(“SFAS 157”), to provide enhanced guidance when using fair value to measure assets and liabilities. SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 applies whenever other pronouncements require or permit assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value and, while not requiring new fair value measurements, may change current practices. The Company is currently evaluating the impact SFAS 157 will have on its consolidated financial statements. SFAS 157 is effective for the Company beginning in fiscal year 2009.

SFAS No. 158

In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 158, “Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans, an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106, and 132(R)” (“SFAS 158”). This statement requires balance sheet recognition of the overfunded or underfunded status of pension and postretirement benefit plans. Under SFAS 158, actuarial gains and losses, prior service costs or credits, and any remaining transition assets or obligations that have not been recognized under previous accounting standards must be recognized in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income, net of tax effects, until they are amortized as a component of net periodic benefit cost. In addition, the measurement date, the date at which plan assets and the benefit obligation are measured, is required to be the Company’s fiscal year end. Presently, the Company uses June 30 to measure its pension and postretirement benefit plans. SFAS 158 is effective for publicly-held companies as of the end of the fiscal year ending after December 15, 2006, except for the measurement date provision, which is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2008. The Company will implement SFAS 158 in the fourth quarter of this fiscal year and expects that the implementation of SFAS 123(R) startingwill result in a change in the quarter ended September 30, 2005. See Note 4 “Stock-Based Compensation,” and “Employee Stock Options” in MD&A for more details.pension liability stated on the balance sheet to record previously unrecognized actuarial gains.

SFAS No. 154

In June 2005, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 154, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, a replacement of APB Opinion No. 20, Accounting Changes, and FASB Statement No. 3, Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements” (“SFAS 154”). The Statement applies to all voluntary changes in accounting principle, and changes the requirements for accounting for and reporting of a change in accounting principle. SFAS 154 requires retrospective application to prior periods’ financial statements of a voluntary change in accounting principle unless it is impracticable. SFAS 154 requires that a change in method of depreciation, amortization, or depletion for long-lived, nonfinancial assets be accounted for as a change in accounting estimate that is affected by a change in accounting principle. Opinion 20 previously required that such a change be reported as a change in accounting principle. SFAS 154 is effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005.

FIN 47

In March 2005, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 47, “Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations”, “(FIN 47”) which clarifies that the term “conditional asset retirement obligation” as used in Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 143, “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations”(“SFAS 143”), refers to a legal obligation to perform an asset retirement activity in which the timing and/or method of settlement are conditional on a future event that may or may not be within the control of the entity. However, the obligation to perform the asset retirement activity is unconditional even though uncertainty exists about the timing and/or method of settlement. FIN 47 requires that the uncertainty about the timing and/or method of settlement of a conditional asset retirement obligation be factored into the measurement of the liability when sufficient information exists. FIN 47 also clarifies when an entity would have sufficient information to reasonably estimate the fair value of an asset retirement obligation. FIN 47 is effective no later than the end of fiscal years ending after December 15, 2005. The Company does not believe the adoption of FIN 47 on July 1, 2006 willthis pronouncement did not have a material impact on itsthe Company’s financial statements.

FIN 48

In June 2006, FASB issued interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes-an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (FAS No. 109)” (“FIN 48”). This interpretation prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. This interpretation also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. The evaluation of a tax position in accordance with this interpretation is a two-step process. In the first step, recognition, the Company determines whether it is more-likely-than-not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. The second step addresses measurement of a tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not criteria. The tax position is measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Differences between tax positions taken in a tax return and amounts recognized in the financial statements will generally result in a) an increase in a liability for income taxes payable or a reduction of an income tax refund receivable, b) a reduction in a deferred tax asset or an increase in a deferred tax liability or c) both a and b. Tax positions that previously failed to meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold should be recognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which that threshold is met. Previously recognized tax positions that no longer meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold should be de-recognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which that threshold is no longer met. Use of a valuation allowance as described in FAS No. 109 is not an appropriate substitute for the de-recognition of a tax position. The requirement to assess the need for a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets based on sufficiency of future taxable income is unchanged by this interpretation. This Interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company is currently evaluating the impact FIN 48 will have on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet and statement of operations.

EITF 06-3

In March 2006, the Emerging Issues Task Force published Abstracts No. 06-3, “How Taxes Collected from Customers and Remitted to Governmental Authorities Should Be Presented in the Income Statement” (“EITF 06-3”) which requires a policy be adopted to present externally imposed taxes on revenue-producing transactions on either a gross or net basis. Gross or net presentation may be elected for each different type of tax, but similar taxes should be presented consistently. Taxes within the scope of this issue would include taxes that are imposed on a revenue transaction between a seller and a customer. EITF 06-3 is effective in interim and annual financial periods beginning after December 15, 2006. The adoption of EITF 06-3 will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Note 3. Mergers and Acquisitions

Agility Communications,Test-Um Inc.

On November 30, 2005In May 2006, the Company purchased Agility Communications,Test-Um Inc. (“Agility”Test-Um”) for 22,598,149 shares of the Company’s common stock with a market value of $54.1 million at the measurement date and $10.7$17.2 million in cash, including $0.5$0.2 million of direct transaction costs incurred in connection with the acquisition. PriorIn addition, JDSU is obligated to pay contingent cash consideration of up to $5.5 million if certain revenue targets are achieved during the 12 months following the acquisition date. This payment, if made, would increase the Company had invested $3.0 million in Agility’s convertible preferred stock. Asrecorded value of March 31, 2006, the Company had acquired all of Agility’s outstanding common and preferred stock.goodwill.

AgilityTest-Um is a leading provider of widely tunable laser solutionsportable test, talk and trace products for opticaldatacom and communications networks. Tunable lasers simplify the deployment of high-speed metro and long-haul networks and help enable the delivery of next-generation services. The acquisition is expected to further expandestablish JDSU as a leader in the Company’s product offeringsgrowing market for home and enterprise network testing. Test-Um is a well-known manufacturer of high-quality, low cost instruments which are used in the field to service providers for their agiletroubleshoot, test, map and certify various types of networks. The transaction was accounted for as a purchase in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting StandardStandards No. 141, “Business Combinations” (“SFAS 141”); therefore, the tangible assets acquired were recorded at fair value on the acquisition date. The preliminary allocation of the purchase price was based, in part, upon a valuation, and the estimates and assumptions used therein are subject to change.

A portion of the purchase price was allocated to developed product technology, which includes products that are already technologically feasible. Test-Um’s developed product technology comprised a portfolio of test and analytical tools. The Income Approach, which is based on the premise that the value of an asset is the present value of its future earning capacity, was the primary valuation technique employed. A discount rate of 12% was applied to developed product technology.

Goodwill, which represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of tangible and identified intangible assets acquired, is not being amortized but will be reviewed annually for impairment, or more frequently if impairment indicators arise, in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets” (“SFAS 142”). In part, goodwill reflects the competitive advantages the Company expects to realize from Test-Um’s existing product lines. Goodwill has been assigned to the Communications Test & Measurement segment and is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

Test-Um’s results of operations have been included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements subsequent to the date of acquisition. Pro forma results of operations have not been presented because the effect of the acquisition was not material to prior period financial statements.

The former shareholders of Test-Um made certain representations and warranties to the Company and agreed to indemnify JDSU against damages which might arise from a breach of those undertakings. As security for this indemnification obligation of the former Test-Um shareholders, JDSU retained $1.7 million of the cash consideration, which is scheduled to be released on the 12 month anniversary of the acquisition date.

Agility Communications, Inc.

In November 2005, the Company purchased Agility Communications, Inc. (“Agility”) for 2,824,768 shares of the Company’s common stock with a market value of $54.1 million at the measurement date and $10.7 million in cash, including $0.5 million of direct transaction costs incurred in connection with the acquisition. Prior to the acquisition, the Company had invested $3.0 million in Agility’s convertible preferred stock. As of December 31, 2005, the Company had acquired all of Agility’s outstanding common and preferred stock.

Agility is a leading provider of widely tunable laser solutions for optical networks. Tunable lasers simplify the deployment of high-speed metro and long-haul networks and help enable the delivery of next-generation services. The acquisition is expected to further expand the Company’s product offerings to service providers for their agile networks.

As a result, goodwill increased $0.8 million and identified intangible assets increased by a total of $0.4$0.2 million.

A portion of the purchase price was allocated to developed product technology and in-process research and development (“IPR&D”). They were identified and valued through an analysis of data provided by Agility concerning developmental products, their stage of development, the time and resources needed to complete them, target markets, their expected income generating ability and associated risks. The Income Approach, which is based on the premise that the value of an asset is the present value of its future earning capacity, was the primary valuation technique employed. Discount rates of 12% and 16% were applied to developed product technology and IPR&D, respectively.

Developed product technology, which includes products that are already technologically feasible, is primarily comprised of a portfolio of tunable lasers, transmitters and transponders.

Developmental projects that had not reached technological feasibility and had no future alternative uses were classified as IPR&D and expensed on the acquisition date. Efforts required to develop IPR&D into commercially viable products include the planning, designing, prototyping, verification and testing activities that are necessary to establish that the products can be produced to meet their design specifications, including functions, features and technical performance requirements.

Agility’s results of operations have been included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements subsequent to the date of acquisition. Pro forma results of operations have not been presented because the effect of the acquisition was not material to prior period financial statements.

The former shareholders of Agility made certain representations and warranties to the Company and agreed to indemnify the Company against damages which might arise from a breach of those undertakings. As security for this indemnification obligation of the former Agility shareholders, approximately $10.0 million of the cash consideration is being held in escrow until the twelve month anniversary of the closing date.

Goodwill was increased to reflect modifications to pension obligations and decreased to reflect modifications to inventory and warranty reserves, tax accruals, other assets and liabilities andAt September 30, 2006, the net effect of these currency translation adjustments.adjustments was to increase goodwill and intangible assets by $3.6 million and $2.4 million, respectively.

A portion of the purchase price was allocated to developed product technology and IPR&D. They were identified and valued through an analysis of data provided by Acterna concerning developmental products, their stage of development, the time and resources needed to complete them, target markets, their expected income generating ability and associated risks. The Income Approach, which is based on the premise that the value of an asset is the present value of its future earning capacity, was the primary valuation technique employed. Discount rates of 10% and 14% were applied to developed product technology and IPR&D, respectively.

Developed product technology, which includes products that are already technologically feasible, is primarily comprised of a portfolio of testing, analysis, maintenance, and optimization tools.

Developmental projects that had not reached technological feasibility and had no future alternative uses were classified as IPR&D and expensed on the acquisition date. Efforts required to develop IPR&D into commercially viable products include the planning, designing, prototyping, verification and testing activities that are necessary to establish that the products can be produced to meet their design specifications, including functions, features and technical performance requirements. The principal projects at merger date were extensions of existing technologies for tools used to install, maintain and test optical and other communications networks. The Company incurred post-acquisition cost of approximately $25.7 million to date for these projects and estimates that additional investment of approximately $4.5 million in research and development will be required during the remainder of fiscal 2007 to complete them.

Goodwill, which represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of tangible and identified intangible assets acquired, is not being amortized but will be reviewed annually for impairment, or more frequently if impairment indicators arise, in accordance with SFAS 142. Goodwill has been assigned to the Communications Test and& Measurement operating segment and is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes. The results of operations of Acterna have been included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements subsequent to the date of acquisition. The combined operating results of the Company and Acterna for fiscal 2006, on a pro forma basis, increase reported net revenue $26.0 million and reported net loss $38.4 million. As a result, the pro forma net loss per share (basic and diluted) increases from $(0.09) as reported to $(0.11).

The former shareholders ofIn connection with the merger, Acterna made certain representations and warranties to the Company, and Acterna’s former security holders agreed to indemnify the Company against damages which might arise from a breach of those representation and warranties. Under the terms of the acquisition, the former Acterna security holders set aside approximately $50.4 million of the cash consideration for payment of indemnification claims made by the Company prior to the earlier of August 31, 2006 or filing of the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2006.

During fiscal 2006, the Company determined that a liability was probable for certain material pre-merger tax contingencies. Consequently, since these tax matters are not yet resolved, the Company made indemnification claims against the Acterna former security holders that may exceed the entire $50.4 million, which is the limit of the former Acterna security holders for these indemnification claims. The principal claim derives from a tax audit in Germany that was initiated during fiscal 2005. If the German tax matters are resolved unfavorably, the Company’s minimum estimated tax exposure would be approximately $37.2 million, plus interest. The Company’s maximum estimated tax exposure would be approximately $62.4 million, plus interest. If the ultimate tax liability is greater than the amount indemnified, the Company expects that the excess would be accounted for as additional goodwill.

Photonic Power Systems, Inc.

In May 2005, JDSU purchased Photonic Power Systems, Inc. (“PPS”), for approximately $9.7 million in cash, including direct transaction costs of $0.1 million and $0.3 million in fair value of options granted to purchase 29,843 shares of JDSU common stock. The former shareholders of PPS made certain representations and warranties to JDSU and agreed to indemnify the Company against damages which might arise from a breach of those undertakings. As security for this indemnification obligation of the former ActernaPPS shareholders, JDSU retained approximately $55.0$1.5 million of the cash consideration, which is being held in escrow untilscheduled to be released on the earlier of August 31, 2006 or filing18 month anniversary of the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K foracquisition date.

In addition to the fiscal year ending June 30, 2006.

The Company has not currently identified any material pre-merger contingencies where a liability is probable and$10.0 million purchase price listed above, JDSU was obligated to pay contingent cash consideration of up to $2.0 million if certain revenue targets were achieved during the amount12 months following the acquisition date. This payment, if made, would have increased the recorded value of goodwill. As none of the liability can be reasonably estimated. However, itrevenue targets were met within the timeframe specified, no additional consideration is possible that a tax assessment could result from an auditdue or payable.

PPS has pioneered the delivery of electrical power over fiber to drive low powered electrical circuitry. Acquiring PPS diversifies JDSU’s customer base, creates opportunities in Germany that was initiated during fiscal 2005. Acterna had a three-tier holding structure in Germany. Tax pooling structures were established between these entities beginning with the fiscal year ended March 31, 2001. During fiscal 2005 a German tax audit asserted a procedural error that could result in the tax pooling structure between two of the entities being disallowed. While the Company believes that the alleged error can be remediednew markets and should not be sufficient to invalidate the tax pooling, there can be no assurance as to the timing or outcome of this matter. If the contested tax pooling structure is ultimately disallowed,industries, expands the Company’s income tax exposure could be as much as 27.2 million EUR ($32.7 million) plus interest through the settlement date. Under the merger agreement, such a tax assessment would be paid from cash heldinvestments in escrowfuture optical technologies and strengthens its vertically integrated products portfolio. The transaction was accounted for as a reductionpurchase in accordance with SFAS 141; therefore, the tangible assets acquired were recorded at fair value on acquisition date.

Note 4. Stock-Based Compensation

Effective July 3, 2005 the Company adopted SFAS 123(R) using the modified prospective application transition method, which establishes accounting for stock-based awards exchanged for employee services. Accordingly, stock-based compensation cost is measured at grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and recognized in expense over the requisite service period. The Company previously applied Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” (“APB 25”), and related Interpretations and provided the pro forma disclosures required by FASB Statement No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (“SFAS 123”).

Periods prior to the adoption of SFAS 123(R)Lightwave Electronics Corporation

Prior to the adoptionIn May 2005, JDSU purchased Lightwave Electronics Corporation (“Lightwave”) for approximately $67.2 million in cash, including $0.5 million of SFAS 123(R), the Company provided the disclosures required under SFAS 123, as amended by SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation – Transition and Disclosures” (“SFAS 148”). The Company generally did not recognize stock-based compensation expense in its statement of operations for periods prior to the adoption of SFAS 123(R) as most options granted had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant.

The following table illustrates the effect on net loss and net loss per share as if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS 123(R) to options granted under the Company’s stock-based compensation plans prior to the adoption. For purposes of this pro forma disclosure the value of the options was estimated using a Black-Scholes-Merton (“BSM”) option-pricing formula and amortized on a straight-line basis over the respective vesting periods of the awards. Disclosures for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2006 are not presented because stock-based payments were accounted for under SFAS 123(R)’s fair-value method during this period.

Adoption of SFAS 123(R)

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2005, the Company accelerated certain unvested “out-of-the-money” stock options with exercise prices equal to or greater than $2.50 per share thereby reducing stock-based compensation in subsequent periods.

Effective the quarter ended September 30, 2005, the Company recorded stock-based compensation cost totaling the amount that would have been recognized had the fair value method been applied since the effective date of SFAS 123(R). Results for prior periods have not been restated. The effect of recording stock-based compensation for the three and nine month period ended March 31, 2006 was as follows:

As required by SFAS 123(R), management has made an estimate of expected forfeitures and is recognizing compensationdirect transaction costs only for those equity awards expected to vest. The cumulative effect of initially adopting SFAS 123(R) was not material.

Stock Options:During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2006, the Company granted approximately 2.8 million and 21.0 million stock options with an estimated total grant-date fair value of $4.5 million and $20.5 million, respectively. Of these amounts, the Company estimated that the stock-based compensation for the awards not expected to vest was $0.9 million and $6.3 million, respectively. During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2006, the Company recorded stock-based compensation related to stock options of $3.2 million and $6.5 million, respectively, for all unvested options granted prior to and options granted after the adoption of SFAS 123(R).

Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP):The compensation costincurred in connection with the plan for the threeacquisition. The former shareholders of Lightwave made certain representations and nine months ended March 31, 2006 was $0.4 millionwarranties to JDSU and $3.0 million, respectively. The expense relatedagreed to the Company’s employee stock purchase plan is amortized on a straight-line basis over the relevant subscription period.

Restricted Shares and Restricted Stock Units: In connection with restricted shares and restricted stock units granted,indemnify the Company recorded deferred stock compensationagainst damages which represents the difference between the exercise pricemight arise from a breach of those undertakings. As security for this indemnification obligation of the options and the fair market valueformer Lightwave shareholders, JDSU retained approximately $10.8 million of the Company’s common sharescash consideration, which is scheduled to be released on the dates the awards were granted, net of expected forfeitures. This stock compensation was being amortized on a straight-line basis over the probable vesting periods of the underlying stock rewards. During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2006, the Company recorded $0.7 million and $2.0 million of such compensation expenses, respectively. During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2005, the Company recorded $0.1 million and $0.2 million of such compensation expenses, respectively.

Valuation Assumptions

In connection with the adoption of SFAS 123(R), the Company estimated the fair value of stock options using a BSM valuation model. The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the BSM option valuation model and the straight-line attribution approach with the following weighted-average assumptions:

Dividend yield

Expected Term: The Company’s expected term represents the period that the Company’s stock-based awards are expected to be outstanding and was determined based on historical experience of similar awards, giving consideration to the contractual terms of the stock-based awards, vesting schedules and expectations of future employee behavior.

Expected Volatility: The fair value of stock-based payments made through the quarter ended September 30, 2004, were valued using a volatility factor based on the Company’s historical stock prices. Commencing in the quarter ended March 31, 2005 and through the quarter ended June 30, 2005, the Company’s volatility factor was estimated using its traded options. Effective the quarter ended September 30, 2005, the Company re-evaluated the assumptions used to estimate volatility, including whether implied volatility of its traded options appropriately reflects the market’s expectations of future volatility and determined that it would use a combination of the implied volatility of its traded options and historical volatility of its stock price based on the expected term of the equity instrument.

Expected Dividend:The BSM valuation model calls for a single expected dividend yield as an input. The Company has not paid and does not anticipate paying any dividends in the near future.

Risk-Free Interest Rate: The Company bases the risk-free interest rate used in the BSM valuation method on the implied yield currently available on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with an equivalent remaining term. Where the expected term of the Company’s stock-based awards do not correspond with the terms for which interest rates are quoted, the Company performed a straight-line interpolation to determine the rate from the available maturities.

Estimated Pre-vesting Forfeitures: When estimating forfeitures, the Company considers voluntary termination behavior as well as future workforce reduction programs. Estimated forfeiture rates are trued-up to actual forfeiture results as the stock-based awards vest.

The aggregate intrinsic value in the table above represents the total pretax intrinsic value, based on the Company’s average stock price of $3.28 during the quarter ended March 31, 2006, which would have been received by the option holders had all option holders exercised their options as of that date. The total number of in-the-money options exercisable as of March 31, 2006 was 36.3 million.

The weighted average exercise price of options granted during the three months ended March 31, 2006 was $3.37 per share. The total fair value of shares vested during the three months ended March 31, 2006 was $0.7 million. The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the three months ended March 31, 2006 was $3.5 million. The total cash received from employees as a result of employee stock option exercises and employee stock purchase plan during the three months ended March 31, 2006 was $24.6 million. In connection with these exercises, there was no tax benefit realized by the Company due to the Company’s current loss position.

The number of shares vested is small compared to the number of grants from prior periods mainly due to the low unvested shares balance resulting from the acceleration of stock options with exercise prices equal to or greater than $2.50 per share in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2005. In addition, all new hire or focal grants vest over four years with 25% vesting on the first18 month anniversary of the dateacquisition date.

Stock-Based Benefit Plans

Employee Stock Purchase Plans:

In June 1998, the Company adopted the JDS Uniphase Corporation 1998 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, as amended (the “98 Purchase Plan”). The 98 Purchase Plan, which became effective August 1, 1998, provides eligible employees with the opportunity to acquire an ownership interestsignificantly strengthens its portfolio in the Company through periodic payroll deductions and provides a discounted purchase price as wellhigher-growth diode-pumped solid-state laser markets. The transaction was accounted for as a look-back period. The 98 Purchase Plan is structured as a qualified employee stock purchase plan under Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. However, the 98 Purchase Plan is not intended to be a qualified pension, profit sharing or stock bonus plan under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 and is not subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The 98 Purchase Plan will terminate upon the earlier of August 1, 2008 or the date on which all shares available for issuance have been sold. Of the 50.0 million shares authorized to be issued under the 98 Purchase Plan, 21.7 million shares remained available for issuance as of March 31, 2006.

Effective with the purchase period that began on February 1, 2006, the 98 Purchase Plan was modified to provide a 5% discount and a six month look-back period. Previously, the Plan had provided a 15% discount and up to a two year look-back period.

Stock Option Plans:

As of March 31, 2006, the Company had 147.0 million shares of outstanding stock options to employees and directors under the Company’s 2005 Acquisition Equity Incentive Plan (the “2005 Plan”), 2003 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2003 Plan”), the 1996 Non-qualified Stock Option Plan, and various other plans the Company assumed as a result of acquisitions. Common stock available for grant as of March 31, 2006 totaled 88.2 million shares. The exercise price for stock options is generally equal to the fair value of the underlying stock at date of grant. Options generally become exercisable over a four-year period and, if not exercised, expire from five to ten years from grant date.

On August 17, 2005, the Company’s Board of Directors adopted and approved the Flexible Stock Incentive—2005 Plan. Pursuant to Section 3(a) of the 2005 Plan, and in accordance with SFAS 141; therefore, the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the Company registered 16.0 million shares, which have been reserved for issuance under the 2005 Plan. The adoption and approval of the 2005 Plan did not effect any of the options granted under the Amended and Restated 1993 Plan, as amended, and currently outstanding, all of which remain exercisable in accordance with their terms.

Restricted stock and restricted stock units are granted under the 2005 and 2003 Plan to a limited number of employees. During the three months ended March 31, 2006, the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors approved the grant of 36,581 restricted shares to the Company’s Board of Directors. These restricted stock awards are either performance or time based and are expected to vest over three to five years. Performance based grants are subject to accelerated vesting in the event of achieving specified targets. In addition, thetangible assets acquired were recorded at fair value of the restricted stock awardson acquisition date. The purchase price was based on the closing market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of award.

As of March 31, 2006, there was $3.5 million of total stock-based compensation related to nonvested restricted shares and restricted stock units. That cost is expected to be recognized over an estimated amortization period of 3.4 years.

In addition,A portion of the Company issued approximately 200.5 millionpurchase price was allocated to developed product technology and 22.6 million sharesIPR&D. They were identified and valued through an analysis of common stock relateddata provided by Lightwave concerning developmental products, their stage of development, the time and resources needed to complete them, target markets, their expected income generating ability and associated risks. The Income Approach, which is based on the premise that the value of an asset is the present value of its future earning capacity, was the primary valuation technique employed. Discount rates of 13.5% and 17.5% were applied to developed product technology and IPR&D, respectively.

Developed product technology, which includes products that are already technologically feasible, is primarily comprised of a portfolio of solid-state lasers used for applications such as PC board via-hole drilling, wafer singulation for solar cells and LEDs, wafer inspection and alignment, memory repair, and ultraviolet flow cytometry and confocal microscopy.

Developmental projects that had not reached technological feasibility and had no future alternative uses were classified as IPR&D and expensed on the acquisition date. Efforts required to develop IPR&D into commercially viable products include the planning, designing, prototyping, verification and testing activities that are necessary to establish that the products can be produced to meet their design specifications, including functions, features and technical performance requirements.

The acquired intangible assets are being amortized over their estimated useful lives, which are presented in the table below:

Goodwill, which represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of tangible and identified intangible assets acquired, is not being amortized but will be reviewed annually for impairment, or more frequently if impairment indicators arise, in accordance with SFAS 142. Goodwill was assigned to the Acterna“All Other” category for the purpose of segment reporting and Agility acquisitions, respectively. See Note. 3 “Acquisitions” for more detail.is not expected to be tax deductible. The results of operations of Lightwave have been included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements subsequent to the date of acquisition.

During the three months and nine months ended March 31,September 30, 2006 the Company recorded write-downs of excess and obsolete inventories of $5.7 million and $23.3 million, respectively. During the three months and nine months ended March 31, 2005, the Company recorded write-downs of excess and obsolete inventories of $9.3$9.2 million and $19.9$11.4 million, respectively.

In addition,

The Company also consumed previously written-down inventories of $4.4 million and $10.7 million during the three and nine months ended March 31,September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively. In addition, the Company consumed previously reserved inventorieshas an active scrap program and typically disposes of $5.0 million and, $21.9 million, respectively.inventory that has been written down through the use of scrap dealers or physical disposal/destruction. During the three and nine months ended March 31,September 30, 2006 and 2005, the Company consumed previously reserved inventories of $8.5scrapped $2.4 million and $27.7$7.8 million of fully reserved inventory, respectively.

The inventory write-downs were predominantly the result of changes in forecasted customer demand and technological changes in the Company’s products. The majority of the inventory written down consisted of raw material, and to a lesser extent finished goods. The major elements of the written down raw material consists of components and items that had not entered into production. The finished goods inventory includes the cost of raw material inputs, labor, and overhead.

The Company operates in markets with relatively few customers and has historically experienced variability in product demand driven by the buying behaviorbehaviour of these customers. In addition, the Company’s products utilize long-lead time parts which are available from a limited set of vendors. The combined effects of a limited customer base, variability of demand among the customer base and significant long-lead time or single sourced materials has historically contributed to significant inventory write-downs. The Company routinely reviews inventory for usage potential, including fulfillmentfulfilment of customer warranty obligations and spare part requirements. The Company writes down to zero the value of excess and obsolete (“E&O”) inventory that is not expected to be consumed through operations generally within twelve12 months. Excess is written down to zero value in large part due to the Company’s history of changes in customer demand and inherent product obsolescence concerns.

The Company has an active scrap program and typically disposes of inventory that has been written down through the use of scrap dealers or physical disposal/destruction. During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2006, the Company scrapped $11.7 million and $44.2 million of fully reserved inventory, respectively. During the three months and nine months ended March 31, 2005, the Company scrapped $54.6 million and $81.1 million of fully reserved inventory, respectively.

For any written down inventory items retained, the Company evaluates the future realizable value of inventories and impact on gross margins, taking into consideration product life cycles, technological and product changes, demand visibility and other market conditions. The Company believes its current process for establishingwriting down inventory reserves appropriately balances the risk in the market place with a fair representation of the realizable value of the Company’s inventory.

RoHS

The European Union has enacted the Restriction of the Use of Certain Hazardous Substances in Electrical and Electronic Equipment (“RoHS”), and the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (“WEEE”) directives. The RoHS directive prohibits the use of certain substances, including lead, mercury, cadmium and chromium, in covered products placed on the market after July 1, 2006. The WEEE directive obligates parties that place electrical and electronic equipment onto the market in the European Union to clearly mark the equipment, register with and report to European Union regulators regarding distribution of the equipment, and provide a mechanism to recall and properly dispose of the equipment. Each European Union member country has enacted, or is expected to soon enact, legislation clarifying what is and what is not covered by the WEEE directive in that country. However, there is still some uncertainty in certain European Union countries as to which party involved in the manufacture, distribution and sale of electronic equipment will be ultimately held responsible. If the Company is deemed to be a manufacturer of covered products, the Company may be required to register as a producer in certain European Union countries, and incur financial responsibility with respect to products sold within the European Union, including products of other manufacturers that have been replaced by ourits products. The

During the three months ended September 30, 2006, the Company recorded write-downs of inventories of approximately $1.0 million relating to RoHS requirements. While the Company has a focused effort for RoHS compliance, it may also incur substantial costs to change its manufacturing processes, redesign or reformulate, and obtain substitute components for its products that are deemed covered products under the RoHS directive. The Company may also incur significantfuture inventory write-downs if certain components held in inventory become unusable because they are not RoHS-compliant. CurrentlyThe Company’s execution of these requirements, which involves product design changes among other matters, if not successful, would impact its ability to service customer order demands.

$425 Million Principal Amount of 1% Senior Convertible Notes:

On May 17, 2006, the Company completed an offering of $375 million aggregate principal amount of 1% Senior Convertible Notes due 2026. On June 5, 2006, the Company sold an additional $50 million aggregate principal amount of the notes which were issued upon the exercise by the initial purchasers of an over-allotment option granted by the Company. The sale of the additional notes brought the total aggregate principal amount of 1% Senior Convertible Notes outstanding to $425 million. The notes were issued for cash consideration to the initial purchasers, J.P. Morgan Securities Inc. and Merrill Lynch,

Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated. The initial purchasers resold the notes to qualified institutional investors in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Proceeds from the notes amounted to $415.9 million after issuance costs.

The notes were issued pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of May 17, 2006, between the Company and The Bank of New York Trust Company, N.A., as trustee. The notes bear interest at a rate of 1.00% per year and are convertible into a combination of cash and shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $30.30 per share. Interest on the notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on May 15 and November 15 of each year, beginning on November 15, 2006. The notes mature on May 15, 2026. The notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company and will rank equal in right of payment with its pro rataother senior unsecured debt and senior to all of its future subordinated debt.

The indenture includes a “net share settlement” provision that requires the Company, upon redemption or conversion, to settle the principal amount of net incomethe notes in cash and the additional conversion value, if any, in shares of the Company’s common stock. Holders of the notes may convert the notes into cash and shares of common stock based on a conversion rate of 33.003 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes, subject to adjustment, prior to stated maturity under the following circumstances:

during any fiscal quarter (and only during that fiscal quarter) commencing after June 30, 2006, if the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock is greater than or lossesequal to 130% of the conversion price for at least 20 trading days in the period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including, the last trading day of the preceding fiscal quarter;

prior to April 15, 2026, during the five business day period after any five consecutive trading day period, or the measurement period, in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of notes for each day of such measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the closing price of the Company’s common stock and the applicable conversion rate for the notes;

if the notes have been called for redemption;

upon the occurrence of specified corporate transactions; or

during the ten trading days prior to, but not on, the maturity date.

Pursuant to the indenture, holders of the notes may require the Company to purchase all or a portion of the notes on each of May 15, 2013, May 15, 2016 and May 15, 2021 at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes to be purchased plus any accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the purchase date. In addition, upon certain fundamental changes, holders may require the Company to purchase for cash the notes at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes to be purchased plus any accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the purchase date. The Company may not redeem the notes before May 20, 2013. On or after that date, the Company may redeem all or part of the notes for cash at 100% of the principal amount of the notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date.

The indenture, which does not contain any financial covenants, provides for customary events of default, including payment defaults, breaches of covenants, failure to pay certain judgments and certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency and reorganization. If an event of default occurs and is continuing, the principal amount of the notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, may be declared immediately due and payable. These amounts automatically become due and payable if an event of default relating to certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization occurs.

Holders of the notes are entitled to the benefits of a Registration Rights Agreement, dated May 17, 2006, among the Company and J.P. Morgan Securities Inc. and Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, as initial purchasers. Under the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company has agreed to file a shelf registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission covering resales of the notes and the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the notes. If a registration statement is not filed within 210 days of issuance or does not become effective within 240 days of issuance, the Company will be required to pay additional interest to the holders of the notes.

The Company has considered the guidance in EITF Abstract No. 98-5, “Accounting for Convertible Securities with Beneficial Conversion Features or Contingently Adjustable Conversion Ratios” (“EITF 98-5”), and has determined that the notes do not contain a beneficial conversion feature as the fair value of the Company’s common stock on the date of issuance was less than the initial conversion price. The notes contain two embedded derivatives; a contingent interest provision, which will expire upon the filing of a registration statement, and a bond parity clause. The remaining embedded derivative, the bond parity clause, had a zero fair value as of September 30, 2006. The Company will be re-measuring the embedded derivatives each reporting period, as applicable and changes in fair value will be reported in the financial statements.

The $9.1 million of costs incurred in connection with the issuance of the notes were capitalized and are being amortized to interest expense on a straight-line basis for seven years which approximates the charge using the implied interest method. As of September 30, 2006, the unamortized portion of the issuance costs related to the notes was $8.6 million and is included in “Other current assets” and “Other assets” on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

$475 Million Principal Amount of Zero Coupon Senior Convertible Notes:

On October 31, 2003, the Company completed the sale of $475.0 million aggregate principal amount of Zero Coupon Senior Convertible Notes due in 2010. The notes were issued for cash consideration in a private placement to the initial purchasers, Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated, Goldman Sachs & Co., and CIBC World Markets Corp. The initial purchasers resold the notes to qualified institutional investors in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Proceeds from the notes amounted to $462.3 million after issuance costs. The notes do not bear interest and are convertible into the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $39.52 per share. Each $1,000 principal amount is initially convertible into 25.304 shares of the Company’s common stock upon the satisfaction of certain conditions. Therefore, the notes are convertible in the aggregate into approximately 12.0 million shares of common stock. The Company has the right to redeem the notes beginning November 15, 2008. Holders of the notes may require the Company to repurchase the notes on November 15, 2008. In addition, under certain circumstances holders may require the Company to convert the notes into shares of the Company’s common stock, if the closing sale price of its equity method investments.common stock exceeds 110% of the conversion price for at least 20 trading days in the 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the preceding fiscal quarter. Conditions required to trigger this conversion right have not occurred.

The Company filed a registration statement with the SEC on November 14, 2003 and amended the registration statement on December 12, 2003, with respect to the resale of the Notes and the common stock issuable upon the conversion of the Notes. The registration statement was declared effective by the SEC on December 12, 2003.

The $12.7 million of costs incurred in connection with issuance of the notes were capitalized and are being amortized to interest expense on a straight-line basis over five years. As of September 30, 2006, the unamortized portion of the issuance costs related to the notes was $5.3 million and is included in “Other current assets” and “Other assets” on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Outstanding Letters of Credit:

As of September 30, 2006, the Company had twenty standby letters of credit totaling $10.6 million.

Note 10. Restructuring

During the third quarter of fiscal 2004, the Company announced completion of the Global Realignment Program (“GRP”), which began in April 2001. That program focused on large-scale site and employee reductions. The Company continues to take advantage of opportunities to further reduce costs through targeted, customer-driven restructuring events intended to consolidate the Company and rationalize the manufacture of its products based on core competencies and cost efficiencies. Restructuring activities initiated prior to December 31, 2002 were recorded in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force Abstracts No. 94-3 “Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)” (“EITF Issue 94-3”), and restructuring activities initiated after December 31, 2002 were recorded in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 146 “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities” (“SFAS 146”) and Statement of Financial Accounting No. 112, “Employees’ Accounting for Post-employment Benefits” (“SFAS 112”). As of September 30, 2006 the Company’s total restructuring accrual was $30.2 million. During the three and nine month periodmonths ended March 31,September 30, 2006 and 2005, the Company incurred restructuring expenses of $5.2 million and $4.8 million, respectively.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2007, the Company recorded income of$0.7 million in expense for severance and benefits, $0.2 million in adjustments to goodwill, $5.8 million for manufacturing transfer cost and $(1.3) million adjustment to reflect modified lease term on restructured facility. Ten employees were notified for termination, 1 in manufacturing, 4 in research and development and 5 in selling, general and administrative functions. All of these 10 notified employees were located in North America. As of September 30, 2006, no employees had been terminated. Severance and benefits are scheduled to be paid through the third quarter of fiscal 2007. Payments related to severance and benefits are expected to be paid off by the first

quarter of fiscal 2008 and payments related to lease costs are expected to be paid by the first quarter of fiscal 2011. The Company expects to incur approximately $1.6 million of charges in the second quarter of fiscal 2007, which will be recognized as the services are performed and actions occur.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2006, the Company recorded $0.6 million of expense to adjust certain severance and benefits and amortize retention benefits related to prior periods’ restructuring events. The Company also recorded $6.1 million for lease termination expenses and $2.0 million for expenses associated with the transfer of manufacturing operations.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2006 the Company relocated its executive offices to Milpitas, California as its former facilities in San Jose, California no longer accommodated the needs of the organization. In addition, the Company entered into an agreement with the landlord of its former executive offices and two adjacent previously restructured manufacturing facilities to settle the remaining obligations under the leases of those facilities. In the third quarter of fiscal 2006 the Company recorded $5.7 million of net expenses associated with the transfer of its executive offices and subsequent settlement of the remaining lease obligations of the facility and adjacent previously restructured manufacturing facilities.

During the second quarter of fiscal 2006 the Company announced the transition of products manufactured at its Ottawa, Canada site to other Company facilities and to the facilities of its contract manufacturing partners. During the third quarter of fiscal 2006, the Company entered into an agreement with Fabrinet, one of its contract manufacturers, to transfer the manufacturing operations located in Ottawa, Canada to Company facilities in Shenzhen, China and St. Etienne, France. In addition, certain manufacturing operations were transferred to Fabrinet facilities in Thailand. In the third quarter of fiscal 2006, the Company recorded $2.0 million of expenses associated with the transfer of Ottawa manufacturing operations. The Company anticipates completing the transfer and wind down of production at Ottawa in the second quarter of fiscal 2007 and estimates actual restructuring and non-recurring charges will total approximately $17 million through completion.

During the second quarter of fiscal 2006, the Company recorded $12.8 million in expense for severance and benefits and $2.1 million to adjust accruals on restructured leases. Eight hundred twenty nine employees were notified for termination, 709 in manufacturing, 78 in research and development and 42 in selling, general and administrative functions. Eight hundred twenty four terminated employees were located in North America and 5 in Europe. As of September 30, 2006, 577 of these employees had been terminated. Severance and benefits are scheduled to be paid through the second quarter of fiscal 2007.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2006, the Company recorded $1.6 million in expense for severance and benefits, $1.0 million for facilities remediation and $2.2 million to adjust accruals on restructured leases. Twenty two employees in Europe were notified for termination, 11 in manufacturing, 6 in research and development and 5 in selling, general and administrative functions. As of December 31, 2005, all of these employees had been terminated.

Note 11. Income Tax

The Company recorded an income tax benefit of $1.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006, as compared to an income tax expense of $5.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2005.

The income tax benefit recorded for the three months ended September 30, 2006 primarily relates to the tax benefit associated with year-to-date losses incurred in certain jurisdictions for which the tax benefit is expected to be realized during the current fiscal year pursuant to FASB Interpretation No. 18, “Accounting for Income Taxes in Interim Periods,” net of a $0.6 million deferred tax expense associated with tax amortization of goodwill for which no financial statement amortization has occurred. The income tax benefit recorded differs from the expected tax benefit that would be calculated by applying the federal statutory rate to the Company’s 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.

The income tax expense recorded for the three months ended September 30, 2005 primarily relates to a $3.6 million non-cash charge associated with the reversal of tax benefits recognized in prior periods relating to the sale of certain marketable securities and a $0.7 million deferred tax expense associated with tax amortization of goodwill for which no financial statement amortization has occurred. The income tax expense recorded differs from the expected tax benefit that would be calculated by applying the federal statutory rate to the Company’s 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, the $3.6 million non-cash charge associated with the sale of $3.5 million, respectively,certain marketable securities, and foreign and state income taxes.

The Company has recorded deferred tax assets as of September 30, 2006 only to the extent that the Company believes it is more likely than not that these deferred tax assets will be realized. The Company has provided a full valuation allowance on the remainder of its pro rata sharedeferred tax assets since the Company believes it is more likely than not that these deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company intends to maintain the valuation allowance until sufficient positive evidence exists to support reversal of net lossessome or all of the allowance. In addition, the occurrence of negative evidence with respect to deferred tax assets which currently have no valuation allowance could result in its equity method investments.an increase in the valuation allowance in a future period. The Company’s income tax expense (benefit) recorded in the future will be reduced or increased in the event changes to the valuation allowance are required.

The Company is currently subject to various federal, state and foreign audits by taxing authorities. The Company believes that adequate amounts have been provided for any adjustments that may result from these examinations; however, it is possible that the final outcomes may differ materially from the Company’s current estimates.

Note 11. Commitments and Contingencies12. Stock-Based Compensation

Legal ProceedingsEffective July 3, 2005 the Company adopted SFAS 123(R) using the modified prospective application transition method, which establishes accounting for stock-based awards exchanged for employee services. Accordingly, stock-based compensation cost is measured at grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and recognized in expense over the requisite service period. On November 10, 2005, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Staff Position No. FAS 123(R)-3 “Transition Election Related to Accounting for Tax Effects of Share-Based Payment Awards.” The Company has elected to adopt the alternative transition method provided in the FASB Staff Position for calculating the tax effects of stock-based compensation pursuant to SFAS 123(R). The alternative transition method includes simplified methods to establish the beginning balance of the additional paid-in capital pool (“APIC pool”) related to the tax effects of employee stock-based compensation, and to determine the subsequent impact on the APIC pool and Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows of the tax effects of employee stock-based compensation awards that are outstanding upon adoption of SFAS 123(R).

On September 21, 2006, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a 1-for-8 reverse split of its common stock, following approval by the Company’s stockholders on December 1, 2005. The reverse stock split was effective at 11:59 pm on October 16, 2006 before trading began on Tuesday, October 17, 2006. All shares and per share amounts have been retroactively restated for all periods presented to reflect the reverse stock split.

Periods prior to the adoption of SFAS 123(R)

Prior to the adoption of SFAS 123(R), the Company previously applied Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” (“APB 25”), and related Interpretations to account for its stock-based compensation plans. The Company provided the disclosures required under SFAS 123, as amended by SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation – Transition and Disclosures” (“SFAS 148”). The Company generally did not recognize stock-based compensation expense in its statement of operations for periods prior to the adoption of SFAS 123(R) as most options granted had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant.

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2005, the Company accelerated certain unvested “out-of-the-money” stock options with exercise prices equal to or greater than $20.00 per share thereby reducing stock-based compensation in subsequent periods. The purpose of the acceleration was to enable us to avoid, upon adoption of SFAS 123R in July 2005, recognizing compensation expense associated with these options in future periods.

Adoption of SFAS 123(R)

Effective the first day of fiscal 2006, the Company recorded stock-based compensation cost totaling the amount that would have been recognized had the fair value method been applied since the effective date of SFAS 123(R). Results for prior periods have not been restated. The effect of recording stock-based compensation for the three month period ended September 30, 2006 was as follows (in millions, except per share amounts):

As required by SFAS 123(R), management has made an estimate of expected forfeitures and is recognizing compensation costs only for those equity awards expected to vest. The cumulative effect of initially adopting SFAS 123(R) was not material.

Approximately $1.0 million of stock-based compensation was capitalized as inventory at September 30, 2006. The Company elected not to capitalize any stock-based compensation to inventory at June 30, 2005, prior to the initial adoption of the provisions of SFAS 123(R).

The impact on the Company’s results of operations of recording stock-based compensation by function for the three month period ended June 30, 2006 was as follows (in millions):

Stock Option Activity

During the three months ended September 30, 2006, the Company granted approximately 0.2 million stock options with an estimated total grant-date fair value of $1.9 million and a weighted average grant date fair value of $8.71 per option. Of these amounts, the Company estimated that the stock-based compensation for the awards not expected to vest was $0.6 million. During the three months ended September 30, 2006, the Company recorded stock-based compensation related to stock options of $4.5 million for all unvested options granted prior to and options granted after the adoption of SFAS 123(R).

The weighted average exercise price of options granted during the three months ended September 30, 2006 was $9.39 per

share. The total fair value of shares vested during the three months ended September 30, 2006 was $3.7 million. The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the three months ended September 30, 2006 was $1.2 million. The total cash received from employees as a result of employee stock option exercises and employee stock purchase plan during the three months ended September 30, 2006 was $5.0 million. In connection with these exercises, there was no tax benefit realized by the Company due to fact that the Company has no material benefit in foreign jurisdictions and a full valuation allowance on its domestic deferred tax assets.

The aggregate intrinsic value in the table above represents the total pretax intrinsic value, based on the Company’s estimated closing stock price of $17.52, after the 1-for-8 reverse stock split, as of September 30, 2006, which would have been received by the option holders had all option holders exercised their options as of that date. The total number of in-the-money options exercisable as of September 30, 2006 was 1.6 million.

The Company issues new shares of common stock upon exercise of stock options. All new hire or focal grants vest over four years with 25% vesting on the first anniversary of the date of grant and 6% vesting every quarter thereafter.

As of September 30, 2006, $49.3 million of stock-based compensation expense related to stock options remain to be amortized. That cost is expected to be recognized over an estimated amortization period of 3.3 years.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”) Activity

The compensation cost in connection with the plan for the three months ended September 30, 2006 was $0.5 million. The expense related to the Company’s employee stock purchase plan is amortized on a straight-line basis over the relevant subscription period.

The following table shows the shares issued, and their respective exercise price, based on the estimated 1-for-8 reverse split, pursuant to the Company’s employee stock purchase plan during the three months ended September 30, 2006.

As of September 30, 2006, $0.7 million of stock-based compensation expense related to ESPP remains to be amortized. That cost is expected to be recognized through the third quarter of fiscal 2007.

Restricted Shares and Restricted Stock Units Activity

In connection with restricted shares and restricted stock units granted, the difference between the exercise price of the options and the fair market value of the Company’s common shares on the dates the awards were granted, net of expected forfeitures represents unrecognized deferred stock compensation which is being amortized on a straight-line basis over the probable vesting periods of the underlying stock rewards. During the three months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, the Company recorded $2.0 million and $0.8 million of such compensation expenses, respectively.

As of September 30, 2006, $14.8 million of stock-based compensation expense related to restricted shares and restricted stock units remain to be amortized. That cost is expected to be recognized over an estimated amortization period of 2.9 years.

Valuation Assumptions

In connection with the adoption of SFAS 123(R), the Company estimated the fair value of stock options using a Black-Scholes-Merton (“BSM”) option-pricing formula and a single option award approach. The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the BSM option valuation model and the straight-line attribution approach with the following weighted-average assumptions:

   Employee Stock Option Plans

  4.86% 4.01% 5.18% 3.73%

Dividend yield

  0.00% 0.00% 0.00% 0.00%

Expected Term: The Company’s expected term represents the period that the Company’s stock-based awards are expected to be outstanding and was determined based on historical experience of similar awards, giving consideration to the contractual terms of the stock-based awards, vesting schedules and expectations of future employee behavior.

Expected Volatility: The fair value of stock-based payments made through the quarter ended September 30, 2004 were valued using a volatility factor based on the Company’s historical stock prices. Commencing in the quarter ended March 31, 2005 and through the quarter ended June 30, 2005, the Company’s volatility factor was estimated using its traded options. Effective the first quarter of fiscal 2006, the Company re-evaluated the assumptions used to estimate volatility, including whether implied volatility of its traded options appropriately reflects the market’s expectations of future volatility and determined that it would use a combination of the implied volatility of its traded options and historical volatility of its stock price based on the expected term of the equity instrument.

Expected Dividend: The BSM valuation model calls for a single expected dividend yield as an input. The Company has not paid and does not anticipate paying any dividends in the near future.

Risk-Free Interest Rate: The Company bases the risk-free interest rate used in the BSM valuation method on the implied yield currently available on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with an equivalent remaining term. Where the expected term of the Company’s stock-based awards do not correspond with the terms for which interest rates are quoted, the Company performed a straight-line interpolation to determine the rate from the available maturities.

Estimated Pre-vesting Forfeitures: When estimating forfeitures, the Company considers voluntary termination behavior as well as future workforce reduction programs. Estimated forfeiture rates are trued-up to actual forfeiture results as the stock-based awards vest.

During the three months ended September 30, 2006, 3,750 stock awards were granted.

Note 13. Stockholders’ Equity

Preferred Stock:

In February 2003, the Company amended and restated its Stockholder Rights Agreement and currently each share of the Company’s outstanding common stock is associated with one right. Each right entitles stockholders to purchase 1/100,000 share of the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock at an exercise price of $21.00. The rights only become exercisable in certain limited circumstances following the tenth day after a person or group announces an acquisition of or tender offers for 15% or more of the Company’s common stock. For a limited period of time following the announcement of any such acquisition or offer, the rights are redeemable by breaching their fiduciary dutiesthe Company at a price of $0.01 per right. If the rights are not redeemed, each right will then entitle the holder to purchase common stock having the value of twice the then-current exercise price. For a limited period of time after the exercisability of the rights, each right, at the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors, may be exchanged for either 1/100,000 share of Series B Preferred Stock or one share of common stock per right. The rights expire on June 22, 2013.

The Company’s Board of Directors has the authority to issue up to 499,999 shares of undesignated preferred stock and to determine the powers, preferences and rights and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions granted to or imposed upon any wholly unissued shares of undesignated preferred stock and to fix the number of shares constituting any series and the designation of such series, without the consent of the Company’s stockholders. The preferred stock could be issued with voting, liquidation, dividend and other rights superior to those of the holders of common stock. The issuance of Series B Preferred Stock or any preferred stock subsequently issued by the Company’s Board of Directors, under some circumstances, could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control.

Exchangeable Shares of JDS Uniphase Canada Ltd.:

On June 30, 1999, in connection with the merger with JDS FITEL, JDS Uniphase Canada Ltd., a subsidiary of the Company, adopted an Exchangeable Share Rights Plan (the “Exchangeable Rights Plan”) substantially equivalent to the PlansCompany’s Rights Agreement. Under the Exchangeable Rights Plan, each exchangeable share issued has an associated right (an “Exchangeable Share Right”) entitling the holder of such Exchangeable Share Right to acquire additional exchangeable shares on terms and conditions substantially the same as the terms and conditions upon which a holder of shares of common stock is entitled to acquire either 1/1000 share of the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock or, in certain circumstances, shares of common stock under the Company’s Rights Agreement. The definitions of beneficial ownership, the calculation of percentage ownership and the Plans’ participants.number of shares outstanding and related provisions of the Company’s Rights Agreement and the Exchangeable Rights Plan apply, as appropriate, to shares of common stock and exchangeable shares as though they were the same security. The amended complaint alleges a purported class period from February 4, 2000,Exchangeable Share Rights are intended to have characteristics essentially equivalent in economic effect to the present and seeks an unspecified amount of damages, restitution, a constructive trust, and other equitable remedies. Defendants moved to dismiss the amended complaint on December 15, 2005. That motion is scheduled to be heard on May 15, 2006. Plaintiffs have begun taking discovery. No trial date has been set.

The Company believes that the factual allegations and circumstances underlying these securities class actions, derivative actions, the OCLI and SDL class actions, and the ERISA class actions are without merit. The expense of defending these lawsuits has been costly, will continue to be costly, and could be quite significant and may not be covered by our insurance policies. The defense of these lawsuits could also result in continued diversion of our management’s time and attention away from business operations which could prove to be time consuming and disruptive to normal business operations. An unfavorable outcome or settlement of this litigation could have a material adverse effect onRights granted under the Company’s financial position, liquidity or results of operations.

The Company is also subject to a variety of other 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 or results of operations, these matters are subject to inherent uncertainties and management’s view of these matters may change in the future. Were an unfavorable final outcome to occur, there exists the possibility of a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial position and on the results of operations for the period in which the effect becomes reasonably estimable.

Note 12.14. Employee Defined Benefit Plans

TheAs a result of the acquisition of Acterna in August 2005, the Company sponsors qualified and non-qualified pension plans for certain employees in the UK and Germany. These plans have been closed to new participants and, except as required by law, are unfunded. For those employees participating in defined benefit plans, benefits are generally based upon years of service and compensation or stated amounts for each year of service. Pension plans consist primarily of managed funds that have underlying investments in stocks and bonds. The Company’s policy for funded plans is to make contributions equal to or greater than the requirements prescribed by law in each country. In fiscal 2007, the legally mandated minimum contribution to the Company’s pension plans is expected to be $0.1 million. The funded plan assets consist primarily of managed investments.

The Company accounts for its obligations under these pension plans in accordance with SFAS No. 87, “Employers Accounting for Pensions.” Under this accounting principle,which requires the Company recognizes a liability on ourto record its obligation to the participants, as well as the corresponding net periodic cost. The Company determines its obligation to the participants and its net periodic cost principally using actuarial valuations provided by third-party actuaries. The amount that the Company records in its Consolidated Balance Sheet for unfunded accumulated benefit obligations, which at March 31, 2006 totaled $85.6 million. The Company has also accrued $4.5 million forSheets is reflective of the unfunded accumulatedtotal projected benefit obligation (PBO), the fair value of a postretirement benefits plan.plan assets and any deferred gains or losses at the measurement date.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2004, the Company announced completion of the Global Realignment Program (“GRP”), which began in April 2001. That program focused on large-scale site and employee reductions. The Company continues to take advantage of opportunities to further reduce costs through targeted, customer-driven restructuring events intended to consolidate the Company and rationalize the manufacture of its products based on core competencies and cost efficiencies. Restructuring activities initiated prior to December 31, 2002 were recorded in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 94-3 “Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)” (“EITF Issue 94-3”), and restructuring activities initiated after December 31, 2002 were recorded in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 146 “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities” (“SFAS 146”) and Statement of Financial Accounting No. 112, “Employees’ Accounting for Post-employment Benefits” (“SFAS 112”).

In addition, the Company entered into an agreement with the landlord of its former executive offices and two adjacent previously restructured manufacturing facilities to settle the remaining obligations under the leases of those facilities. In the third quarter of fiscal 2006 the Company recorded $5.7 million of net expenses associated with the transfer of its executive offices and subsequent settlement of the remaining lease obligations of the facility and adjacent previously restructured manufacturing facilities.

During the second quarter of fiscal 2006 the Company announced the transition of products manufactured at its Ottawa, Canada site to other Company facilities and to the facilities of its contract manufacturing partners. During the third quarter of fiscal 2006 the Company entered into an agreement with Fabrinet, one of its contract manufacturers, to transfer the manufacturing operations located in Ottawa, Canada to Company facilities in Shenzhen, China and St. Etienne, France. In addition, certain manufacturing operations where transferred to Fabrinet facilities in Thailand. In the third quarter of fiscal 2006 the Company recorded $2.0 million of expenses associated with the transfer of Ottawa manufacturing operations. The Company anticipates completing the transfer and wind down of production at Ottawa in the second quarter of fiscal 2007 and estimates actual restructuring and non-recurring charges will total approximately $17 million through completion.

During the second quarter of fiscal 2006, the Company recorded $12.8 million in expense for severance and benefits and $2.1 million to adjust accruals on restructured leases.

Note 15. Income Tax Expensenecessary.

The Company recorded income tax expenseexpects to contribute $4.7 million to its defined benefit pension plans during fiscal 2007 to make current benefit payments and fund future obligations. As of $2.9September 30, 2006, approximately $1.1 million and $8.9 million for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2006, respectively, and income tax benefits of $1.8 million and $3.2 million for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2005, respectively.

The income tax expense recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2006 primarily relates to income tax in certain foreign and state jurisdictions and a $0.4 million deferred tax expense associated with tax amortization of goodwill for which no financial statement amortization has occurred. The income tax expense recorded for the nine months ended March 31, 2006 primarily relates to a $3.6 million non-cash charge associated with the reversal of tax benefits recognized in prior periods relating to the sale of certain marketable securities, a $0.7 million deferred tax expense associated with tax amortization of goodwill for which no financial statement amortization has occurred, and income tax in certain foreign and state jurisdictions.

The income tax benefit recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2005 relates primarily to the favorable settlement of a foreign tax audit. In addition to the favorable settlement of the foreign tax audit, the tax benefit recorded for the nine months ended March 31, 2005 includes a $2.5 million tax benefit reflecting a reduction in previously accrued tax liabilities as a result of the Company’s resolution of certain domestic tax audit issues. The Company also recorded $0.5 million and $1.6 million of income tax expense for the three months and nine months ended March 31, 2005, respectively, relating primarily to foreign income taxes.

The income tax expense recorded for the three months and nine months ended March 31, 2006 differs from the expected tax expense that would be calculated by applying the federal statutory rate to the Company’s loss before income taxes primarily due to increases in valuation allowance for deferred tax assets attributable to domestic and foreign losses from continuing operations and the $3.6 million non-cash charge associated with the sale of certain marketable securities.

The income tax benefit recorded for the three months and nine months ended March 31, 2005 differs from the expected tax benefit that would be calculated by applying the federal statutory rate to the Company’s loss before income taxes primarily due to the reduction of previously accrued tax liabilities and increases in its valuation allowance for deferred tax assets attributable to the Company’s domestic and foreign losses from continuing operations.

The Company has recorded deferred tax assets as of March 31, 2006 only to the extent they exceed certain deferred tax liabilities. In addition, it has provided a full valuation allowance on most of its deferred tax assets. The Company intends to maintain the valuation allowance until sufficient positive evidence exists to support reversal of some or all of it. Likewise, the occurrence of negative evidence with respect to the foreign deferred tax assets which have no valuation allowance could result in an increase in the valuation allowance in a future period. The Company’s income tax expense recorded in the future will be reduced or increased to the extent of offsetting decreases or increases to the valuation allowance.

The Company is currently subject to various federal, state and foreign audits by taxing authorities. The Company believes that adequate amountshad been contributed. These payments have been provided for any adjustments that may result from these examinations; however, it is possible that the final outcomes may differ materially from the Company’s current estimates.

Note 16. Commitments and Contingencies

Tax audits

The Company has been subject to a Dutch wage tax audit for calendar years 1999, 2000, and 2001, and a Texas franchise tax audit related to allocated taxable surplus capital for Texas report years 2001, 2002, and 2003. While the Company believes that it is reasonably possible that one or both of these audits may result in additional tax liabilities, based on currently available information, the Company believes the ultimate outcome of these audits will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, cash flows or overall trends in results of operations. There is the possibility of a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, cash flows or overall trends in results of operations for the period in which these matters are ultimately resolved, if they are resolved unfavorably, or in the period in which an unfavorable outcome becomes probable. The range of the potential total tax liability related to these matters is estimated to be from zero to $47.3 million, plus interest. See “Note 3. Mergers and Acquisitions” for a discussion of the potential tax contingency related to the acquisition of Acterna.

Note 17. Reporting Segment and Geographic Information

Note 19.18. Guarantees

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 31,September 30, 2006.

Product Warranties:

JDSU: In general, the Company offers a one-year warranty for most of its optical communications products, and a three-month to one-year warranty for most of its products in the commercial and consumer products. For certain products, the Company

provides a limited five-yearthree to seven-year warranty. 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.

Acterna: In general, Acterna offers a one-year warranty for its products. For certain products Acterna provides a three-year warranty. A provision for estimated warranty costs, based on expected return rates and repair costs, is recorded at the time revenue is recognized. Acterna accrues for warranty costs at the time of shipment, based on estimates of expected rework rates and warranty costs to be incurred. While it engages in product quality programs and processes, its warranty obligation is affected by product failure rates, material usage and service delivery costs. Should actual product failure rates, material usage or service delivery costs differ from Acterna’s estimates, the amount of actual warranty costs could differ from its estimates.

The following table presents the changes in the Company’s warranty reserve during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2006 and 2005 (in millions):

In January 2005, the Court denied the motion to dismiss claims against the Company, Jozef Straus, Anthony R. Muller, and Charles Abbe, and granted in part and denied in part the motion to dismiss claims against Kevin Kalkhoven. Defendants subsequently filed answers denying liability for the claims asserted against them. On December 21, 2005, the Court granted Plaintiffs’ motion for class certification.

Discovery inIn re JDS Uniphase Corporation Securities Litigation is ongoing. Each party has noticed and taken depositions of both party and non-party witnesses. The deadline for fact discovery, except for depositions and discovery arising from new information obtained at depositions, was September 29, 2006.

The Derivative Actions:

Derivative actions purporting to $462.3 million after issuance costs.

Each $1,000 principal amount is initially convertible into 202.4291 sharesbehalf have been filed in state and federal courts against several of the Company’s common stock uponcurrent and former officers and directors based on the satisfaction of certain conditions. Therefore, the Notes are convertiblesame events alleged in the aggregate into approximately 96.2 million sharessecurities litigation. The complaint in Corwin v. Kaplan, No. C-02-2020 CW (N.D. Cal.), asserts state law claims for breach of common stock.fiduciary duty, misappropriation of confidential information, waste of corporate assets, indemnification, and insider trading.

On April 24, 2006, the Court also approved the parties’ stipulation in the shareholder inspection demand action brought by the plaintiff in the California derivative action. Pursuant to that stipulation, the shareholder inspection demand action is stayed until January 16, 2007, subject to the parties’ rights to seek a lifting of the Company’s common stock exceeds 110% of the conversion price for at least 20 trading daysstay based on developments in the 30 consecutive trading days ending onfederal securities action. No activity has occurred in the California derivative action or the related shareholder inspection demand action since our last trading dayfiling.

No activity has occurred in Cromas v. Straus, Civil Action No. 19580 (Del. Ch. Ct.), the Delaware derivative action, since our last filing.

The OCLI and SDL Shareholder Actions:

Plaintiffs purporting to represent the former shareholders of OCLI and SDL have filed suit against the preceding fiscal quarter. Conditions required to trigger this conversion right have not occurred.

The costs incurredformer directors of those companies, asserting that they breached their fiduciary duties in connection with the Convertibleevents alleged in the securities litigation against the Company. Plaintiffs in the OCLI action, Pang v. Dwight, No. 02-231989 (Sonoma Super. Ct.), purport to represent a class of former shareholders of OCLI who exchanged their OCLI shares for JDSU shares when JDSU acquired OCLI. The complaint names the former directors of OCLI as Defendants, asserts causes of action for breach of fiduciary duty and breach of the duty of candor, and seeks unspecified damages. No activity has occurred in the OCLI action since our last filing. The Plaintiffs in the SDL action, Cook v. Scifres, Master File No. CV814824 (Santa Clara Super. Ct.), purport to represent a class of former shareholders of SDL who exchanged their SDL shares for JDSU shares when the Company acquired SDL. Plaintiffs filed an amended complaint on September 12, 2005. The complaint names the former directors of SDL as Defendants, asserts causes of action for breach of fiduciary duty and breach of the duty of disclosure, and seeks unspecified damages. Defendants demurred to the complaint on October 12, 2005. On August 16, 2006, the Court sustained the demurrer with leave to amend. Plaintiffs have not filed an amended complaint as of the date of this filing. A case management conference is scheduled for October 24, 2006. Limited discovery in the SDL action has occurred. No trial date has been set in either the OCLI or SDL action.

The ERISA Actions:

A consolidated action entitledIn re JDS Uniphase Corporation ERISA Litigation, Case No. C-03-4743 WWS (MEJ), is pending in the District Court for the Northern District of California against the Company, certain of its former and current officers and directors, and certain other current and former JDSU employees on behalf of a purported class of participants in the 401(k) Plans of the Company and Optical Coating Laboratory, Inc. and the Plans themselves. On October 31, 2005, Plaintiffs filed an amended complaint. The amended complaint alleges that Defendants violated the Employee Retirement Income Security Act by breaching their fiduciary duties to the Plans and the Plans’ participants. The amended complaint alleges a purported class period from February 4, 2000, to the present and seeks an unspecified amount of damages, restitution, a constructive trust and other equitable remedies.

Plaintiffs filed a second amended complaint on June 30, 2006. Defendants answered the complaint on July 6, 2006, and JDSU asserted counterclaims for breach of contract. The Court dismissed those counterclaims on September 11, 2006. A case management conference is scheduled for November 1, 2006. Both sides have begun taking discovery. No trial date has been set.

The Company believes that the factual allegations and circumstances underlying these securities class actions, derivative actions, the OCLI and SDL class actions, and the ERISA class actions are without merit. The expense of defending these lawsuits has been costly, will continue to be costly, and could be quite significant and may not be covered by our insurance policies. The defense of these lawsuits could also result in continued diversion of our management’s time and attention away from business operations which could prove to be time consuming and disruptive to normal business operations. An unfavorable outcome or settlement of this litigation could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, liquidity or results of operations.

The Company is also subject to a variety of other 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 or results of operations, these matters are subject to inherent uncertainties and management’s view of these matters may change in the future. Were an unfavorable final outcome to occur, there exists the possibility of a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial position and on the results of operations for the period in which the effect becomes reasonably estimable.

Note 20. Subsequent Events

On September 21, 2006, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a 1-for-8 reverse split of its common stock, following approval by the Company’s stockholders on December 1, 2005. The reverse stock split was effective at 11:59 pm on October 16, 2006 before trading began on Tuesday, October 17, 2006. As a result, the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock was reduced from approximately 1.7 billion to approximately 211 million shares. The par value of the common stock was not affected by the reverse stock split and remains at $0.001 per share. Consequently, on the Company’s balance sheet, the aggregate par value of the issued common stock was reduced by reclassifying the par value amount of the eliminated shares of common stock to Additional Paid-in Capital. The Company will pay cash in lieu of any fractional shares to which a holder of common stock would otherwise be entitled as a result of the reverse stock split. The number of authorized shares of common stock will be reduced from 6 billion to 1 billion. The exchangeable shares of JDS Uniphase Canada Ltd., a subsidiary of the Company listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange, took effect a comparable reverse stock split at the same ratio of 1-for-8. The reverse split will reduce the number of exchangeable shares outstanding from approximately 51 million to approximately 6 million. All per share amounts and outstanding shares, including all common stock equivalents (stock options, other equity incentive awards, equity compensation plans and convertible notes) have been restated in the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements and in the Notes are being amortized to interest expense over 5 years.the condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for all period presented to reflect the reverse stock split.

As of March 31,In September 2006, the Company had twenty-seven outstanding standby letterssigned an agreement to sell its Santa Rosa, California campus, comprised of credit totaling $11.313 buildings with approximately 492,000 square feet, for approximately $43.5 million. In connection with the sale the Company signed an agreement to lease back 6 buildings with approximately 274,000 square feet for up to 10 years. The purchaser decided not to pursue the acquisition and allowed the agreement to expire on October 27th, 2006. The Company has commenced discussions with other interested potential purchasers.

In October 2006, the Company purchased all of the intellectual property, including all patents and patent applications of Metconnex Canada, Inc. and Metconnex US Corp., a developer of wavelength selective switch (WSS) modules for $2.5 million in connection with an insolvency proceeding. In connection with the acquisition, the parties agreed to settle and dismiss all pending litigation, including litigation commenced by JDSU against Metconnex and certain of its officers and employees for alleged violation of JDSU patent and intellectual property rights.

Overall, our optical communications markets are notable for, among other things, their high concentration of customers at each level of the industry, extremely long design cycles, and increasing competition from Asian (principally China-based) suppliers. One consequence of a highly concentrated customer base and increasing Asian competition is systemic pricing pressure at each level of the industry. Large capital investment requirements, long return on investment periods, uncertain business models, and complex and shifting regulatory hurdles, among other things, currently combine to limit opportunities for new carriers and their system suppliers to emerge. Thus, we expect that high customer concentration, and its attendant pricing

pressure, and other effects on our communications markets will remain for the foreseeable future. Long design cycles mean that considerable resources must be spent to design and develop new products with limited visibility relative to the ultimate market opportunity for the products (pricing and volumes) or the timing thereof.

As a supplier of components and modules to this industry, we feel the effects most acutely as system designs must first be initiated at the carrier level, communicated to the systems provider, and then communicated to us and our competitors. During system design periods, shifts in economic, industry, customer, or consumer conditions could and often do cause redesigns, delays, or even cancellations to occur with their related costs to those involved. Communications industry design cycles are often challenging for companies without the financial and infrastructural resources to sustain the long periods between project initiation and revenue realization. Commercial

The advanced optical technologies markets and Consumer,the laser business, while more diverse, sharesshare some of the customer concentration and design cycle attributes of our communications markets.

We are working aggressively on a strategy to expand our products, customers, and distribution channels for several of our core competencies in these areas to, among other things, reduce our exposure to customer concentration and long design cycles across our company. As part of this strategy, we have expanded into the Communications Test and& Measurement segment, which has expanded our customer base and distribution significantly.

On August 3, 2005, we completed the acquisition of privately held Acterna, Inc. (“Acterna”), a leading worldwide provider of broadband and optical test and measurement solutions for telecommunications and cable service providers and network equipment manufacturers. Beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2006, the addition of Acterna comprisesformed a new reportable segment to our business: Communications Test and& Measurement. One attribute of this segment is considerable seasonal revenue variability. We expect this seasonality to continue for the foreseeable future, impacting our Communications Test and& Measurement financial results, our overall product mix, and financial performance.

On November 30, 2005, we completed the acquisition of Agility Communications, Inc. (“Agility”), a leading provider of widely tunable laser solutions for optical networks, which is included in Optical Communications.

On May 4, 2006, we completed the acquisition of Test-Um Inc. (“Test-Um”), an industry-leading provider of home networking test instruments for the FTTx and digital cable markets, which is included in Communications Test & Measurement.

Major business developments during the thirdfirst quarter of fiscal 20062007 include:

 

Net revenue in the thirdfirst fiscal quarter of 20062007 increased 89%23%, or $148.6$59.8 million, to $314.9 million$318.1million from $166.3$258.3 million in the thirdfirst fiscal quarter of 2005 and increased sequentially less than 1%, or $2.0 million, from $312.9 million in the second fiscal quarter of fiscal 2006. Net revenue in the thirdfirst quarter of fiscal 20062007 consisted of $127.5$138.0 million, or approximately 40%43% of net revenue, from Optical Communications, $61.2$116.8 million, or approximately 19%37% of net revenue, from

Communications Test & Measurement, $39.3 million, or approximately 12% of net revenue, from Advanced Optical Technologies, and $24.1 million, or approximately 8% of net revenue, from Lasers. Communications Test & Measurement net revenue includes $(0.1) million of deferred revenue that is eliminated from consolidated revenue as a result of purchase accounting adjustments.

Commercial and Consumer, and $126.8 million, or approximately 40% of net revenue, from Communications Test and Measurement. Communications Test and Measurement net revenue includes $0.6 million of deferred revenue that is eliminated from consolidated revenue as a result of purchase accounting adjustments. Optical Communications net revenue increased 25%, or $25.8 million, from the third quarter of fiscal 2005 and 16%, or $17.9 million, from the second quarter of fiscal 2006. In the third quarter, Commercial and Consumer net revenue decreased 5%, or $3.4 million, from the third quarter of fiscal 2005 and increased 3%, or $1.8 million, from the second quarter of fiscal 2006. In the third quarter, Communications Test and Measurement net revenue declined 13%, or $19.2 million, from the second quarter of fiscal 2006.

Our combined research and development (“R&D”) and selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses, as a percent of net revenue, increased to 41% in the third quarter of fiscal 2006, from 37% in the third quarter of fiscal 2005, and increased slightly from 40% in the second fiscal quarter of fiscal 2006. The year over year increase is primarily related to higher operating expenses associated with recent acquisitions and the inclusion of stock compensation expenses resulting from the adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 123, “Share-Based Payment (Revised 2004)”(“SFAS 123(R)”). The slight sequential increase from the second quarter of fiscal 2006 reflects additional finance support costs and compensation expenses, including additional stock-based compensation expenses.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

SFAS No. 123(R)SAB 108

Effective July 3, 2005,In September 2006, the first day of fiscal 2006, we adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 123, “Share-Based Payment (Revised 2004)”(“SFAS 123(R)”) on a modified prospective basis. As a result, we have included stock-based compensation costs in our results of operations for the three and nine month period ended March 31, 2006, as more fully described in Note 4 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

SAB 107

In March 2005, the Securities Exchange Commission (“SEC”)SEC staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107, “Share-Based Payment,108 “Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements” (“SAB 107”108”). SAB 107 provides guidance regarding108 requires that

public companies utilize a “dual-approach” to assessing the interactions between SFAS 123(R) and certain SEC rules and regulations, including guidance related to valuation methods, the classification of compensation expense, non-GAAP financial measures, the accounting for income taxquantitative effects of share-based payment arrangements, disclosures in Management’s Discussionfinancial misstatements. This dual approach includes both an income statement focused assessment and Analysis (“MD&A”) subsequent to adoption of SFAS 123(R), and modifications of options prior to the adoption of SFAS 123(R). We began adhering to thea balance sheet focused assessment. The guidance in SAB 107 upon its implementation108 must be applied to annual financial statements for fiscal years ending after November 15, 2006. We are currently assessing the impact of SFAS 123(R) starting the quarter ended September 30, 2005. See Note 4 toadopting SAB 108 but do not expect that it will have a material effect on our condensed consolidated financial statementsposition or results of operations.

SFAS No. 157

In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”(“SFAS 157”), to provide enhanced guidance when using fair value to measure assets and “Employee Stock Options”liabilities. SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in MD&AGAAP and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 applies whenever other pronouncements require or permit assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value and, while not requiring new fair value measurements, may change current practices. We are currently evaluating the impact SFAS 157 will have on our consolidated financial statements. SFAS 157 is effective beginning in fiscal year 2009.

SFAS No. 158

In September 2006, FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 158, “Employers’ Accounting for more details.Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans, an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106, and 132(R)”(“SFAS 158”). This statement requires balance sheet recognition of the overfunded or underfunded status of pension and postretirement benefit plans. Under SFAS 158, actuarial gains and losses, prior service costs or credits, and any remaining transition assets or obligations that have not been recognized under previous accounting standards must be recognized in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income, net of tax effects, until they are amortized as a component of net periodic benefit cost. In addition, the measurement date, the date at which plan assets and the benefit obligation are measured, is required to be our fiscal year end. Presently, we use June 30 to measure our pension and postretirement benefit plans. SFAS 158 is effective for publicly-held companies as of the end of the fiscal year ending after December 15, 2006, except for the measurement date provision, which is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2008. We will implement SFAS 158 in the fourth quarter of this fiscal year and expect that the implementation will result in a change in the pension liability stated on the balance sheet to record previously unrecognized actuarial gains.

SFAS No. 154

In June 2005, FASBFinancial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 154, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, a replacement of APB Opinion No. 20, Accounting Changes, and FASB Statement No. 3, Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements” (“SFAS 154”). The Statement applies to all voluntary changes in accounting principle, and changes the requirements for accounting for and reporting of a change in accounting principle. SFAS 154 requires retrospective application to prior periods’ financial statements of a voluntary change in accounting principle unless it is impracticable. SFAS 154 requires that a change in method of depreciation, amortization, or depletion for long-lived, nonfinancial assets be accounted for as a change in accounting estimate that is affected by a change in accounting principle. Opinion 20 previously required that such a change be reported as a change in accounting principle. SFAS 154 is effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. We do not believe theThe adoption of this pronouncement on July 2, 2006 willdid not have a material impact on our financial statements.

FIN 4748

In June 2006, FASB issued interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes-an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (FAS No. 109)” (“FIN 48”). This interpretation prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. This interpretation also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. The evaluation of a tax position in accordance with this interpretation is a two-step process. In the first step, recognition, it is determined whether it is more-likely-than-not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination, including resolution of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits of the position. The second step addresses measurement of a tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not criteria. The tax position is measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Differences between tax positions taken in a tax return and amounts recognized in the financial statements will generally result in a) an increase in a liability for income taxes payable or a reduction of an income tax refund receivable, b) a reduction in a deferred tax asset or an increase in a deferred tax liability or c) both a and b. Tax positions that previously failed to meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold should be

recognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which that threshold is met. Previously recognized tax positions that no longer meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold should be de-recognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which that threshold is no longer met. Use of a valuation allowance as described in FAS No. 109 is not an appropriate substitute for the de-recognition of a tax position. The requirement to assess the need for a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets based on sufficiency of future taxable income is unchanged by this interpretation. This Interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. We are currently evaluating the impact FIN 48 will have to our consolidated balance sheet and statement of operations.

EITF 06-3

In March 2005,2006, the FASB issued InterpretationEmerging Issues Task Force published Issue No. 47,06-3,Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement ObligationsHow Taxes Collected from Customers and Remitted to Governmental Authorities Should Be Presented in the Income Statement, “(FIN 47” (“EITF 06-3”) which clarifiesrequires a policy be adopted to present externally imposed taxes on revenue-producing transactions on either a gross or net basis. Gross or net presentation may be elected for each different type of tax, but similar taxes should be presented consistently. Taxes within the scope of this issue would include taxes that the term “conditional asset retirement obligation” as used in Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 143, “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations” (“SFAS 143”), refers to a legal obligation to perform an asset retirement activity in which the timing and/or method of settlement are conditionalimposed on a future event that may or may not be within the control of the entity. However, the obligation to perform the asset retirement activity is unconditional even though uncertainty exists about the timing and/or method of settlement. FIN 47 requires that the uncertainty about the timing and/or method of settlement ofrevenue transaction between a conditional asset retirement obligation be factored into the measurement of the liability when sufficient information exists. FIN 47 also clarifies when an entity would have sufficient information to reasonably estimate the fair value of an asset retirement obligation. FIN 47seller and a customer.

The preparationFor a description of our consolidated financial statements in conformity withthe critical accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires us to make estimates and judgmentspolicies that affect the reported amounts of assetsour more significant judgments and liabilities, net revenue and expenses, and the related disclosures. We base our estimates on historical experience, our knowledge of economic and market factors and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Estimates and judgments used in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements, are, by their nature, uncertain and unpredictable, and depend upon, among other things, many factors outside ofrefer to our control, such as demand forAnnual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC. There have been no changes to our products and economic conditions. Accordingly, our estimates and judgments may prove to be incorrect and actual results may differ, perhaps significantly, from these estimates under different estimates, assumptions or conditions. We believe the following critical accounting policies are affected by significant estimates, assumptions and judgments used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.since June 30, 2006.

Revenue Recognition:Certain networking and communications products are integrated with software that is not considered essential to the functionality of the equipment. We believe that this equipment is not considered software related and would therefore be excluded from the scope of American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) Statement of Position 97-2, “Software Revenue Recognition,” (“SOP 97-2”). Accordingly, we allocate the fair value of the equipment when sold with software according to the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force No. 00-21, “Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables,” (“EITF 00-21”). The value of the arrangement, less the allocated hardware is then considered within the scope of SOP 97-2.

We offer unspecified software upgrades and enhancements related to this equipment through maintenance contracts. We account for revenue from these products in accordance with SOP 97-2, as amended by AICPA Statement of Position 98-9, “Modification of SOP 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, With Respect to Certain Transactions,” (“SOP 98-9”), and all related interpretations. Accordingly, we recognize revenue on these products when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable, and collection is probable.

SOP 97-2, as amended, requires revenue earned on software arrangements involving multiple elements to be allocated to each element based on the relative fair values of the elements. We have analyzed each element in our multiple-element arrangements and determined that we have sufficient vendor-specific objective evidence (VSOE) to allocate revenues, license updates and product support and professional services. Accordingly, assuming all other revenue recognition criteria are met, revenues from perpetual licenses are recognized upon delivery using the residual method in accordance with SOP 98-9. We limit our assessment of VSOE for each element to arrangement renewal rates. Changes to the elements in an arrangement and our ability to establish vendor-specific objective evidence for those elements could affect the timing of the revenue recognition.

Revenue from sales to distributors with rights of return, price protection or stock rotation is not recognized until the products are sold through to end customers. Generally, revenue associated with contract cancellation payments from customers is not recognized until we receive payment for such charges.

We record provisions against our gross revenue for estimated product returns and allowances in the period when the related revenue is recorded. These estimates are based on factors that include, but are not limited to, historical sales returns, analyses of credit activities, current economic trends and changes in our customers’ demand. Should our actual product returns and allowances exceed our estimates, additional provisions against our revenue would result

Allowances for Doubtful Accounts:We perform credit evaluations of our customers’ financial condition. We maintain allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability or unwillingness of our customers to make required payments. We record our bad debt expenses as selling, general and administrative expenses. When we become aware that a specific customer is unable to meet its financial obligations to us, for example, as a result of bankruptcy or deterioration in the customer’s operating results or financial position, we record a specific allowance to reflect the level of credit risk in the customer’s outstanding receivable balance. In addition, we record additional allowances based on certain percentages of our aged receivable balances. These percentages are determined by a variety of factors including, but not limited to, current economic trends, historical payment and bad debt write-off experience. We are not able to predict changes in the financial condition of our customers, and if circumstances related to our customers deteriorate, our estimates of the recoverability of our trade receivables could be materially affected and we may be required to record additional allowances. Alternatively, if we provide more allowances than we need, we may reverse a portion of such provisions in future periods based on our actual collection experience.

Stock-based Compensation: We estimate the fair value of stock options granted using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing formula and a single option award approach. This fair value is then amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite

service periods of the awards, which is generally the vesting period. This option-pricing model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the option’s expected life and the price volatility of the underlying stock. The expected stock price volatility assumption was determined using a combination of historical and implied volatility of our common stock.

Investments:We hold equity interests in both publicly traded and privately held companies. When the carrying value of an investment exceeds its fair value and the decline in value is deemed to be other-than-temporary, we write down the value of the investment and establish a new cost basis. Fair values for investments in public companies are determined using quoted market prices. Fair values for investments in privately held companies are estimated based upon one or more of the following but not limited to: assessment of the investees’ historical and forecasted financial condition; operating results and cash flows; the values of recent rounds of financing; and quoted market prices of comparable public companies. We regularly evaluate our investments based on criteria that include, but are not limited to: the duration and extent to which the fair value has been less than the carrying value, the current economic environment and the duration of any market decline, and the financial health and business outlook of the investees. We generally believe an other-than-temporary decline occurs when the fair value of an investment is below the carrying value for six consecutive months. Future adverse changes in these or other factors could result in an other-than-temporary decline in the value of our investments, thereby requiring us to write down such investments. Our ability to liquidate our investment positions in privately held companies will be affected to a significant degree by the lack of an actively traded market, and we may not be able to dispose of these investments in a timely manner.

Inventory Valuation:We assess the value of our inventory on a quarterly basis and write-down those inventories which are obsolete or in excess of our forecasted usage to their estimated realizable value. Our estimates of realizable value are based upon our analysis and assumptions including, but not limited to: forecasted sales levels by product, expected product lifecycle, product development plans and future demand requirements. Our marketing department plays a key role in our excess review process by providing updated sales forecasts, managing product rollovers and working with manufacturing to maximize recovery of excess inventory. If actual market conditions are less favorable than our forecasts or actual demand from our customers is lower than our estimates, we may be required to record additional inventory write downs. If actual market conditions are more favorable than anticipated, inventory previously written down may be sold, resulting in lower cost of sales and higher income from operations than expected in that period.

Goodwill Valuation: We test goodwill for possible impairment on an annual basis and at any other time if events occur or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of goodwill may not be recoverable. Circumstances that could trigger an impairment test include but are not limited to: a significant adverse change in the business climate or legal factors; an adverse action or assessment by a regulator; unanticipated competition; loss of key personnel; the likelihood that a reporting unit or significant portion of a reporting unit will be sold or otherwise disposed; results of testing for recoverability of a significant asset group within a reporting unit; and recognition of a goodwill impairment loss in the financial statements of a subsidiary that is a component of a reporting unit.

The determination as to whether a write down of goodwill is necessary involves significant judgment based on the short-term and long-term projections of the future performance of the reporting unit to which the goodwill is attributed. The assumptions supporting the estimated future cash flows of the reporting unit, including the discount rate used and estimated terminal value reflect our best estimates.

Long-lived asset valuation (property, plant and equipment and intangible assets):

Long-lived assets held and used

We test long-lived assets or asset groups for recoverability when events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Circumstances which could trigger a review include, but are not limited to: significant decreases in the market price of the asset; significant adverse changes in the business climate or legal factors; accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally expected for the acquisition or construction of the asset; current period cash flow or operating losses combined with a history of losses or a forecast of continuing losses associated with the use of the asset; and current expectation that the asset will more likely than not be sold or disposed of significantly before the end of its estimated useful life.

Recoverability is assessed based on the carrying amounts of the asset and its fair value which is generally determined based on the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and the eventual disposal of the asset, as well as specific appraisals in certain instances. An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount is not recoverable and exceeds fair value.

Long-lived assets held for sale

We classify long-lived assets as held for sale when certain criteria are met, including: management’s commitment to a plan to sell the assets; the availability of the assets for immediate sale in their present condition; whether an active program to locate buyers and other actions to sell the assets has been initiated; whether the sale of the assets is probable and their transfer is expected to qualify for recognition as a completed sale within one year; whether the assets are being marketed at reasonable prices in relation to their fair value; and how unlikely it is that significant changes will be made to the plan to sell the assets. Long-lived assets held for sale are classified as other current assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

We measure long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale at the lower of carrying amounts or fair value less cost to sell. Fair value is determined using quoted market prices or the anticipated cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate with the risk involved.

Income Taxes. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 (“FAS 109”),Accounting for Income Taxes, we recognize income taxes using an asset and liability approach. This approach requires the recognition of taxes payable or refundable for the current year and deferred tax liabilities and assets for the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in our consolidated financial statements or tax returns. The measurement of current and deferred taxes is based on provisions of the enacted tax law and the effects of future changes in tax laws or rates are not anticipated.

FAS 109 provides for recognition of deferred tax assets if the realization of such deferred tax assets is more likely than not to occur. With the exception of certain international jurisdictions, we have determined that at this time it is more likely than not that deferred tax assets attributable to the remaining jurisdictions will not be realized, primarily due to uncertainties related to our ability to utilize our net operating loss carryforwards before they expire. Accordingly, we have established a valuation allowance for such deferred tax assets.

We are subject to income tax audits by the respective tax authorities in all of the jurisdictions in which we operate. The determination of tax liabilities in each of these jurisdictions requires the interpretation and application of complex and sometimes uncertain tax laws and regulations. We recognize liabilities based on our estimate of whether, and the extent to which, additional tax liabilities are probable. If we ultimately determine that the payment of such a liability is not necessary, then we reverse the liability and recognize a tax benefit during the period in which the determination is made that the liability is no longer necessary.

The recognition and measurement of current taxes payable or refundable and deferred tax assets and liabilities requires that we make certain estimates and judgments. Changes to these estimates or a change in judgment may have a material impact on our tax provision in a future period.

Warranty Accrual:We provide reserves for the estimated costs of product warranties at the time revenue is recognized. We estimate the costs of our warranty obligations based on our 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. Should our actual experience relative to these factors differ from our estimates, we may be required to record additional warranty reserves. Alternatively, if we provide more reserves than we need, we may reverse a portion of such provisions in future periods.

Restructuring Accrual:In April 2001, we began to implement formalized restructuring programs based on our business strategies and economic outlook and recorded significant charges in connection with our Global Realignment Program. In connection with these plans, we have recorded estimated expenses for severance and outplacement costs, lease cancellations, asset write-offs and other restructuring costs. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 146, “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities” (“SFAS 146”) and Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 100 (“SAB 100”), generally costs associated with restructuring activities initiated after December 31, 2002 have been recognized when they are incurred rather than at the date of a commitment to an exit or disposal plan. However, in the case of

leases, the expense is estimated and accrued when the property is vacated. Given the significance of, and the timing of the execution of such activities, this process is complex and involves periodic reassessments of estimates made at the time the original decisions were made, including evaluating real estate market conditions for expected vacancy periods and sub-lease rents. In addition, post-employment benefits accrued for workforce reductions related to restructuring activities initiated after December 31, 2002 are accounted for under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 112, “Employer’s Accounting for Post-employment Benefits” (“SFAS 112”). A liability for post-employment benefits is recorded when payment is probable, the amount is reasonably estimable, and the obligation relates to rights that have vested or accumulated. We continually evaluate the adequacy of the remaining liabilities under our restructuring initiatives. Although we believe that these estimates accurately reflect the costs of our restructuring plans, actual results may differ, thereby requiring us to record additional provisions or reverse a portion of such provisions.

Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits/ Obligations: The determination of our obligation and expense for pension and other postretirement benefits payable to employees and retirees is dependent on our selection of certain assumptions used by actuaries in calculating such amounts. Those assumptions include, among others, the discount rate, expected long-term rate of return on plan assets and mortality assumptions for the plan participants. In accordance with SFAS No. 87, “Employers Accounting for Pensions,” actual results that differ from our assumptions are accumulated and amortized over future periods and, therefore, generally affect our recognized expense and recorded obligation in such future periods. While we believe that our assumptions are appropriate, significant differences in our actual experience or significant changes in our assumptions that may be required under new legislation, or accounting pronouncements, or otherwise may materially affect our pension and other post-retirement obligations and our future expense.

Net Revenue:

Net revenue in the thirdfirst quarter of fiscal 20062007 increased 89%23%, or $148.6$59.8 million, to $314.9$318.1 million from $166.3$258.3 million in the thirdfirst quarter of fiscal 2005 and increased sequentially less than 1%, or $2.0 million, from $312.9 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2006.

The year over year increase of $148.6 million in quarterly net revenue is primarily due to recent acquisitions and an increase in demand of our agile optical network (“AON”) products.products, including Reconfigurable Optical Add / Drop Multiplexers (ROADM), optical switches, blockers, and tunables. Revenue growth also includes increased demand for Modules, Core, Submarine, Passive Components

and Lasers. Recent acquisitions include Acterna in August 2005, Agility in November 2005, and Lightwave in May 2005. The year over year growth was also driven by an increase in demand for our AON components from Optical Communications, including Reconfigurable Optical Add / Drop Multiplexers (“ROADM”), optical switches, blockers, and tunables.

The sequential increase of $2.0 million in net revenue from the second quarter of fiscal 2006 is primarily due to an increase in Optical Communications net revenue of $17.9 million primarily from an increase in demand for our AON products, and an increase in Commercial and Consumer net revenue of $1.8 million primarily from an increase in demand for our document authentication and protection business and laser products. These increases werewas partially offset by a decrease in Communications Test and Measurement net revenue of $19.2 million due to the seasonal declines in this business.

Net revenue for the nine months ending March 31, 2006 increased 64%, or $344.8 million, to $886.1 million from $541.3 million in the comparable prior year period. The increase in net revenue is primarily due to the addition of Communications Test and Measurement from the acquisition of Acterna and an increase in Optical Communications net revenue of $21.5 million, primarily from the an increase in demand for AON products. The increase of Communications Test and Measurement and Optical Communications net revenue was offset by a decrease in Commercial and Consumer net revenue of $41.4 million primarilyour custom optics business unit due to our decision to exit non-core and unprofitable product lines.

Going forward, we expect to continue to encounter a number of industry and market structural risks and uncertainties that will limit our business climate and market visibility, and consequently, our ability to predict future revenue, profitability and general financial performance, and that could create quarter over quarter variability in one or more of our financial measures. These structural risks and uncertainties include: (a) strong pricing pressures, particularly within our Optical Communications markets, due to, among other things, a highly concentrated customer base, increasing Asian competition, excess device manufacturing capacity within the optical communications industry and a general commoditization trend for many of our products; (b) high product mix variability, particularly in our Optical Communications products, which causes revenue variability, as well as gross profit variability due to, among other things, factory utilization fluctuations and inventory and supply chain management complexities; (c) seasonal buying patterns within our Communications Test and& Measurement customers, which causes significant seasonal revenue variation within this high gross margin business unit; and (d) continuing service provider business model uncertainty, which causes demand, revenue and profitability measure unpredictability at each level of the communications industry. Moreover, the current trend of communications industry consolidations is expected to continue, directly affecting our Optical Communication’s and Communications Test and& Measurement’s customer base and adding additional risk and uncertainty to our financial and business predictability.

In the nearer term, we face additional risks and uncertainties that, while expected to diminish over the next several quarters, also currently limit our ability to predict future revenue, profitability and general financial performance. These risks and uncertainties relate to the following:

first, ourOur program of North American assembly manufacturing transitions are entering their final phases, but until completed, these activities will continue to present additional supply chain and product delivery disruption risks, yield and quality concerns and increased cost risks;

second, our Commercial and Consumer segment revenue isrisks. These risks, while expected to decline indiminish over the nearer term, bynext several single digit millions of dollars, associated withquarters, also currently limit our exit from a legacy front surface mirror businessability to predict future revenue, profitability and our consolidation activities; and

general financial performance.

third, we are facing a July 1, 2006 compliance deadline with respect to the European Union’s restrictions on the hazardous materials content of certain products we make, commonly referred to as RoHS. While we are working diligently to satisfy our customers’ requirements with respect to such restrictions, we cannot preclude the possibility of negative revenue and profitability impacts from our Optical Communications segment this quarter due to any failures in this respect.

Gross Profit:

Gross profit in the thirdfirst quarter of fiscal 20062007 increased 366%123%, or $90.7$54.0 million, to $115.5$98.0 million from $24.8$44.0 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2005 and increased sequentially 11%, or $11.3 million, from $104.2 million in the secondfirst quarter of fiscal 2006.

The year over year increase of $90.7$54.0 million is primarily due to the addition of Communications Test & Measurement and Measurement, additional gross profit in Optical Communications primarily from an increase in sales volume and savings from our on-going manufacturing cost reduction programs. In addition, the third quarter fiscal 2006 includes a stock compensation expense of $0.9 million related to the adoption of SFAS 123(R).

The sequentialThis increase in gross profit was partially offset by an increase in amortization expense of $11.3 million reflects a decreaseacquired developed technologies and of the sale of stepped up inventory acquired from Acterna in purchase price accounting adjustments from the acquisition of ActernaAugust 2005 and savings from our on-going manufacturing cost reduction programs.

Agility in November 2005. Gross profit excluding amortization expense of acquired developed technologies in the nine months ending March 31, 2006first quarter of fiscal 2007 increased 178%109%, or $173.8$56.3 million, to $271.3$107.9 million from $97.5$51.6 million in the comparable period in the prior year. The increase is primarily due to the additional gross profit from Communications Test and Measurement from the acquisition of Acterna and the savings from our on-going manufacturing cost reduction programs. In addition, the nine months ended March 31, 2006 includes stock compensation expense of $2.3 million related to the adoption of SFAS 123(R).same quarter a year ago.

As discussed in more detail under “Net Revenue” above, we sell products in certain markets that are undergoing product, architectural and business model transitions, have high customer concentrations, are highly competitive (increasingly due to Asia-based competition) and consolidating, are price sensitive and are affected by customer seasonal and mix variant buying patterns. These factors along with our continuing ongoing product and manufacturing transitions, supplier constraints and factory utilization and execution issues, can and will result in pressure on, and quarterly variability in, our gross profit. In addition to the risks and uncertainties discussed under “Net Revenue” above, we face additional risks and uncertainties, associated with new product introductions that could impair future gross profits. Currently, the introduction of new products, such as ROADM’s, optical switches, tunable transponders, high speed transponders, solid state lasers and display components, which due to the untested nature of the products and the potential for complexity have incurred and are expected to continue to incur relatively higher start-up costs and increased yield and product quality risk. Issues associated with some of these products have negatively impacted and could continue to negatively impact our gross profit.

Research and Development (“R&D”) and Selling, General and Administrative (“SG&A”):

R&D and SG&A expenses in the thirdfirst quarter of fiscal 20062007 increased 114%19%, or $69.0$18.9 million to $129.5$123.0 million, from $60.5 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2005 and increased sequentially 4%, or $5.5 million, from $124.0 million in second quarter of fiscal 2006.

The year over year increase of $69.0 million is primarily due to the recent acquisitions of Acterna, Agility and Lightwave, additional finance support costs and higher compensation expenses, including the adoption of SFAS 123(R). The third fiscal quarter 2006 includes stock compensation expense of $3.2 million from the adoption of SFAS 123(R).

The sequential increase of $5.5 million is primarily due to additional finance support costs and addition personnel to enhance the capabilities in various sales, marketing, and corporate general and administrative functions.

R&D and SG&A expenses in the nine months ending March 31, 2006 increased 88%, or $167.5 million, to $357.6 million from $190.1$104.1 million in the comparable period in the prior year.fiscal 2006. The increase is primarily due toa result of the recentinclusion of a full quarter of spending for the acquisitions of Acterna and Agility completed in fiscal 2006. This increase was offset by lower spending in the Advanced Optical Technologies segment due to program reductions and Lightwave, additional finance supportthe Optical Communications segment on lower headcount and compensation expenses including the adoption of SFAS 123(R). The nine months ended March 31, 2006 includes stock compensation expense of $8.4 million from the adoption of SFAS 123(R).other program-related spending.

We believe that investment in R&D is critical to attaining our strategic objectives. Historically, we have devoted significant engineering resources to assist with production, quality and delivery challenges which have had some negative

impact on our new product development activities. Despite our continued efforts to reduce total operating expenses, there can be no assurance that our R&D expenses will continue to remain at the current level. In addition, there can be no assurance that such expenditures will be successful or that improved processes or commercial products, at acceptable volumes and pricing, will result from our investment in R&D.

We intend to continue to aggressively address our SG&A expenses and reduce these expenses as and when opportunities arise. We have in the recent past experienced, and expect to continue to experience in the future, certain non-core expenses, such as litigation and dispute related settlements and accruals, which could increase our SG&A expenses, and impair our profitability expectations, in any particular quarter. We are also increasing SG&A expenses in the near term to complete the integration of Acterna, particularly with respect to business infrastructure and systems matters. None of these non-core expenses, however, is expected to have a material adverse impact on our financial condition. Also, we expect to incur additional SG&A expenses as we continue to add additional corporate accounting and finance staff as well as address the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, in particular, Section 404 thereof and our remediation of materialinternal control weaknesses identified in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2005.2006 and the transition of Acterna into the scope of our assessment. There can be no assurance that our SG&A expense will decline in the future or that, more importantly, we will develop a cost structure (including our SG&A expense), which will lead to profitability under current and expected revenue levels.

Amortization of Other Intangibles:

The increase in amortizationAmortization expense for the three and nine months ended March 31,September 30, 2006 increased 36% compared to the same period a year ago. This is primarily due to the increase in our intangible assets subject to amortization as a result of our acquisitions of Acterna in the first quarter and Agility in the second quarter of fiscal 2006.

Based on the carrying amount of other intangibles as of March 31,September 30, 2006, and assuming no future impairment of the underlying assets, the estimated future amortization is as follows (in millions):

The IPR&D expenses in the three months ended March 31, 2006 reflect the impact from the final Agility valuation. There were no IPR&D expenses during the three and nine months ended March 31, 2005.same quarter. In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, this IPR&D amount was expensed on the acquisition date as the acquired technology had not yet reached technological feasibility and had no future alternative uses.

During the three months ended March 31, 2005, in accordance with StatementSeptember 30, 2006, we recorded a gain of Financial Accounting Standard No. 144, “Accounting$0.6 million for the Impairment or Disposalsale and disposal of Long-Lived Assets” (“SFAS 144”),assets. During the three months ended September 30, 2005, we adjustedrecorded losses of $5.5 million on the carrying valuesale of the Ottawa campus and certain other assets held for saleof which $4.9 million was related to the fair valuesale of such assets, which resulted in a charge to income of $3.1 million and $7.6 million, respectively.our front surface mirror business.

Restructuring and Other Related Charges:

During the third quarter of fiscal 2004, we announced completion of the Global Realignment Program (“GRP”), which began in April 2001. That program focused on large-scale site and employee reductions. We continue to take advantage of opportunities to further reduce costs through targeted, customer-driven restructuring events intended to consolidate and rationalize the manufacture of our products based on core competencies and cost efficiencies. See “Note 10. Restructuring” for more detail.

During the threefirst quarter of fiscal 2007, we recorded $5.2 million in restructuring charges which included $0.7 million in expense for severance and nine months ended March 31,benefits, $5.8 million for manufacturing transfer cost and $(1.3) million adjustment to reflect modified lease term on a restructured facility. Ten employees were notified for termination, 1 in manufacturing, 4 in research and development and 5 in selling, general and administrative functions. All of these 10 notified employees were located in North America. As of September 30, 2006, we incurred restructuring expensesno employees had been terminated. Severance and benefits are scheduled to be paid through the second quarter of $8.7fiscal 2007. Payments related to severance and benefits are expected to be paid off by the first quarter of fiscal 2008 and payments related to lease costs are expected to be paid by the first quarter of fiscal 2011. We expect to incur approximately $1.6 million of charges in the second quarter of fiscal 2007, which will be recognized as the services are performed and $28.5 million, respectively. During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2005, we incurred restructuring expenses of $1.5 million and $10.6 million, respectively. actions occur.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2006, we recorded $0.6 million of expense to adjust certain severance and benefits and amortize retention benefits related to prior periodperiods’ restructuring eventsevents. We also recorded $6.1 million for lease termination expenses and $2.0 million for expenses associated with the transfer of manufacturing operations. As of March 31, 2006, 112 employees had been terminated. Severance and benefits are scheduled to be paid through the second quarter of fiscal 2007.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2006, the Companywe relocated itsour executive offices to Milpitas, California as itsour former facilities in San Jose, California no longer accommodated the needs of the organization. In addition, the Companywe entered into an agreement with the landlord of itsour former executive offices and two adjacent previously restructured manufacturing facilities to settle the remaining obligations under the leases of those facilities. In the third quarter of fiscal 2006 the Companywe recorded $5.7 million of net expenses associated with the transfer of itsour executive offices and subsequent settlement of the remaining lease obligations of the facility and adjacent previously restructured manufacturing facilities.

During the second quarter of fiscal 2006, the Companywe announced the transition of products manufactured at itsour Ottawa, Canada site to other Company facilities and to the facilities of itsour contract manufacturing partners. During the third quarter of fiscal 2006, the Companywe entered into an agreement with Fabrinet, one of itsour contract manufacturers, to transfer the manufacturing operations located in Ottawa, Canada to Company facilities in Shenzhen, China and St. Etienne, France. In addition, certain manufacturing operations wherewere transferred to Fabrinet facilities in Thailand. In the third quarter of fiscal 2006, the Companywe recorded $2.0 million of expenses associated with the transfer of Ottawa manufacturing operations. We anticipate completing the transfer and wind down of production at Ottawa in the second quarter of fiscal 2007 and estimate actual restructuring and non-recurring charges will total approximately $17 million through completion.

During the second quarter of fiscal 2006, the Companywe recorded $12.8 million in expense for severance and benefits and $2.1 million to adjust accruals on restructured leases. Eight hundred twenty nine employees were notified for termination, 709 in manufacturing, 78 in research and development and 42 in selling, general and administrative functions. Eight hundred twenty four terminated employees were located in North America and 5 in Europe. As of March 31,September 30, 2006, 112577 employees had been terminated. Severance and benefits are scheduled to be paid through the second quarter of fiscal 2007.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2006, the Companywe recorded $1.6 million in expense for severance and benefits, $1.0 million for facilities remediation and $2.2 million to adjust accruals on restructured leases. Twenty-twoTwenty two employees in Europe were notified for termination, 11 in manufacturing, 6 in research and development and 5 in selling, general and administrative functions. As of MarchDecember 31, 2006,2005, all of these employees had been terminated.

Our ability to generate sublease income, as well as our ability to terminate lease obligations at the amounts estimated, 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. Our restructuring obligations are net of sublease income or lease settlement estimates of approximately $8.9$8.3 million. 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 cost 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 2010.

The actions under the GRP and other restructuring actions may not be successful in achieving the expected cost reductions or other benefits, may be insufficient to align our operations with customer demand and the changes affecting our industry, or may be more costly or extensive than currently anticipated. Even if the restructuring activities are successful and meet our current cost reduction goals, our revenue must continue to increase substantially in the future for us to be profitable.

Interest and Other, Net:

During the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2006, net interest and other income increased by $3.0$14.7 million compared to the same period a year ago. The increase was primarily due to 1) receipt of $5.1 million related to a non interest bearing note convertible into preferred stock received from the settlement of a contract dispute for which no value was ascribed at the time of the settlement, 2) higher interest income of $1.8approximately $7.1 million due to higher cash balances from a patent settlementthe issuance of $425 million of Senior Convertible Notes, and 3) the absence of net foreign exchange loses of $0.3approximately $2.9 million that occurred in the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2005.

During the nine months ended March 31, 2006, net interest and other income increased by $1.3 million compared to the same period a year ago. The increase was primarily due to income of $1.8 million from a patent settlement.

Gain on Sale of Assets:

For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2006, we recorded net gains on sale of assets of $0.3 million and $0.4 million, respectively. Net gains were primarily related to gains from the license of certain intellectual property and transaction adjustments from the sale of inventory to our contract manufacturers. For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2005, we did not have a net gain (loss) on sale of assets.

Gain on Sale of Investments:

For the three and nine months ended March 31, 2006, we recordedThe net gainsgain on sale of investments of $37.7$0.3 million and $72.8 million, respectively,recorded during the three months ended September 30, 2006 was primarily due to the sale of the reminder of our investment in MEMSCAP common stock.

The net gain on sale of investments of $33.3 million recorded during the three months ended September 30, 2005 was primarily due to the sale of half of our 25% ownership in ADVA Optical Networking (“ADVA”) and Prudential Financial, Inc (“Prudential”). We sold half of our ownership in ADVA in the fiscal quarter ended September 31, 2005 resulting in a gain of $35.1 million and the remaining half in the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2006 resulting in a gain of $34.7 million. We sold our ownership of Prudential in the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2006 for a gain of $2.2$28.9 million and the sale of our ownership of Nortel for a gain of $4.4 million.

Reduction in Fair Value of Investments:

We periodically reviewregularly evaluate the carrying value of our investments for impairment. In the eventinvestments. When the carrying value of an investment exceeds itsthe fair value and the decline in fair value is determineddeemed to be other-than-temporary, we write down the value of the investment to its fair value. During the three and nine months ended March 31,September 30, 2006 and 2005, we recorded $0.4 million and $2.9 million ofother-than-temporary reductions in fair value of certain non-marketable investments. During the threeinvestments of zero and nine months ended March 31, 2005, we recorded $3.4$2.3 million, and $8.4 million of reductions in fair value of certain non-marketable investments, respectively.

Income (Loss) on Equity Method Investments:

We recorded income and losses on ourOur active equity method investments representing our pro-rata share of net losses. Our equity investments include two venture capital funds and twoone direct investment. During the three and nine months ended March 31,September 30, 2006 we recorded losses of $0.2 million and $0.3 million, respectively. During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2005, we recorded $0.2income of $0.1 million and loss of $0.4 million, respectively, as our pro rata share of net income and $3.5 million of net losses onor loss in our equity method investments, respectively.investments.

Income Tax Expense (Benefit):

We recorded an income tax benefit of $1.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006, as compared to an income tax expense of $2.9 million and $8.9$5.5 million for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2006, respectively, as compared to income tax benefits of $1.8 million and $3.2 million for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2005, respectively.September 30, 2005.

The income tax expensebenefit recorded for the three months ended March 31,September 30, 2006 primarily relates to incomethe tax benefit associated with year-to-date losses incurred in certain foreign

and state jurisdictions andfor which the tax benefit is expected to be realized during the current fiscal year pursuant to FASB Interpretation No. 18,“Accounting for Income Taxes in Interim Periods,” net of a $0.4$0.6 million deferred tax expense associated with tax amortization of goodwill for which no financial statement amortization has occurred. The income tax expense recorded for the nine months ended March 31, 2006 primarily relates to a $3.6 million noncash charge associated with the reversal of tax benefits recognized in prior periods relating to the sale of certain marketable securities, a $0.7 million deferred tax expense associated with tax amortization of goodwill for which no financial statement amortization has occurred, and income tax in certain foreign and state jurisdictions.

The income tax benefit recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2005 relates primarily to the favorable settlement of a foreign tax audit. In addition to the favorable settlement of the foreign tax audit, the tax benefit recorded for the nine months ended March 31, 2005 includes a $2.5 million tax benefit reflecting a reduction in previously accrued tax liabilities as a result of the Company’s resolution of certain domestic tax audit issues. The Company also recorded $0.5 million and $1.6 million of income tax expense for the three months and nine months ended March 31, 2005, respectively, relating primarily to foreign income taxes.

The income tax expense recorded for the three months and nine months ended March 31, 2006 differs from the expected tax expense that would be calculated by applying the federal statutory rate to our loss before income taxes primarily due to increases in valuation allowance for deferred tax assets attributable to domestic and foreign losses from continuing operations and the $3.6 million noncash charge associated with the sale of certain marketable securities.

The income tax benefit recorded for the three months and nine months ended March 31, 2005 differs from the expected tax benefit that would be calculated by applying the federal statutory rate to our loss before income taxes primarily due to the reduction of previously accrued tax liabilities and increases in our valuation allowance for deferred tax assets attributable to our domestic and foreign losses from continuing operations.

The income tax expense recorded for the three months ended September 30, 2005 primarily relates to a $3.6 million non-cash charge associated with the reversal of tax benefits recognized in prior periods relating to the sale of certain marketable securities and a

$0.7 million deferred tax expense associated with tax amortization of goodwill for which no financial statement amortization has occurred. The income tax expense recorded differs from the expected tax benefit that would be calculated by applying the federal statutory rate to our 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 $3.6 million non-cash charge associated with the sale of certain marketable securities, and foreign and state income taxes.

We have recorded deferred tax assets as of March 31,September 30, 2006 only to the extent they exceed certainthat we believe it is more likely than not that these deferred tax liabilities. In addition, weassets will be realized. We have provided a full valuation allowance on mostthe remainder of our deferred tax assets.assets since we believe it is more likely than not that these deferred tax assets will not be realized. We intend to maintain the valuation allowance until sufficient positive evidence exists to support reversal of some or all of it. Likewise,the allowance. In addition, the occurrence of negative evidence with respect to the foreign deferred tax assets which currently have no valuation allowance could result in an increase in the valuation allowance in a future period. Our income tax expense (benefit) recorded in the future will be reduced or increased toin the extent of offsetting decreases or increasesevent changes to the valuation allowance.allowance are required.

We are currently subject to various federal, state and foreign audits by taxing authorities. We believe that adequate amounts have been provided for any adjustments that may result from these examinations,examinations; however, it is possible that the final outcomes may differ materially from our current estimates.

As part of our accounting for business combinations, some of the purchase price is allocated to goodwill and intangible assets. For many of our acquisitions, impairment charges associated with goodwill will not be tax deductible and will result in an increased effective income tax rate in the quarter the impairment is recorded. For these same acquisitions, amortization expense associated with acquired intangible assets is likewise not tax deductible, however deferred taxes have been recorded as part of the purchase price allocation. Consequently, the amortization (or impairment) of the intangible assets will not affect our post-acquisition income tax rate. Income tax contingencies existing as of the acquisition dates of all of the acquired companies are evaluated quarterly and any adjustments are recorded as an adjustment to goodwill.

Our investments of surplus cash are made in accordance with an investment policy approved by our Board of Directors. In general, our investment policy requires that securities purchased and held be rated A-1/P-1, A/A2 or better. No security may have an effective maturity that exceeds 36 months, and the average duration of our investment portfolio may not exceed 18 months. At any time, no more than 10% of the investment portfolio may be concentrated in a single issuer other than the U.S. government or U.S. agencies. Our investments in debt securities and marketable equity securities are 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 reported as a separate component of stockholders’ equity. We did not hold any investments in auction rate securities at March 31,September 30, 2006.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements:

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements, as such term is defined in rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission, that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.

Acquisitions:

In May 2006, we completed the acquisition of Test-Um Inc. (“Test-Um”), an industry-leading provider of home networking test instruments for the FTTx and digital cable markets, for $17.2 million in cash. By acquiring Test-Um, we expand our channels for the sale of our broad portfolio of test instruments for broadband access networks, including the recently introduced SmartClass line of instruments. We plan to leverage Test-Um’s network of several hundred distribution partners, making our access test instruments available to the service installation and electrical contractors served by Test-Um today. In addition, the acquisition creates new market opportunities for Test-Um’s products, which will be made available through our direct sales and service organization serving the largest telecommunications and cable service providers worldwide.

In November 2005, we completed the acquisition of Agility Communications, Inc. (“Agility”), a leading provider of widely tunable laser solutions for optical networks, for 2,824,768 shares of our common stock with a market value of $54.1 million at the measurement date and $10.7 million in cash. The acquisition is expected to solidify our leadership position in the rapidly growing market for tunable lasers and transponders; offer an optimal path to high volume, high yield, tunable, pluggable solutions when combined with JDSU’s manufacturing scalability; and establish JDSU as the broadest end-to-end agile optical network portfolio provider in the marketplace.

In August 2005, we completed the acquisition of Acterna, Inc. (“Acterna”), a leading worldwide provider of broadband and optical test and measurement solutions for telecommunications and cable service providers and network equipment manufacturers, for approximately $459.3 million in cash and $304.7 million in JDS Uniphase’s common stock, which equated to approximately 25 million shares. The cash payment was made during the first quarter of fiscal 2006. With this acquisition, we become a leading provider of Optical Communications sub-systems and broadband test and measurement systems serving an expended customer base that includes the largest 100 telecommunication and cable services providers, and system manufacturers worldwide. The combined portfolio of products and services are expected to enhance the deployment of internet Protocol (“IP”)-based data, voice and video services over optical long haul, metro, fiber-to-the-home, digital subscriber line (“DSL”) and cable networks. Starting the first quarter of fiscal 2006, the addition of Acterna’s Test & Measurement business comprised a new reportable segment of our business. Please refer to “Note 3. Mergers and Acquisitions” of our Notes to Consolidated Financial Statement.

Employee Stock Options:

Our stock option program is a broad-based, long-term retention program that is intended to attract and retain employees and align stockholder and employee interests. As of March 31,September 30, 2006, we have available for issuance 88.26.4 million shares of common stock underlying options for grant primarily under the Company’sour 2003 Equity Incentive Plan. The exercise price is generally equal to the fair value of the underlying stock at the date of grant. Options generally become exercisable over a four-year period and, if not exercised, expire from five to ten years post grant date. The majority of our employees participate in our stock option program.

Effective the first quarter of fiscal 2006, we adopted SFAS 123(R) which establishes accounting for stock-based awards exchanged for employee services. Accordingly, stock-based compensation cost is measured at grant date, based on the fair value of the award, over the requisite service period. We previously applied APB 25 and related Interpretations, as permitted by SFAS 123. Refer to “Note 4.12. Stock-Based Compensation” of our Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a detailed discussion.

Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits

As a result of acquiring Acterna in August 2005, we sponsor pension plans for certain past and present employees in the UK and Germany. JDSU also is responsible for the non-pension postretirement benefit obligation of a previously acquired subsidiary. These plans have been closed to new participants and, except as required by law, have not been funded. SFAS 87 requires that an asset be recognized if the net periodic cost is less than the amounts the employer has contributed to the plan and a liability be recognized if the net periodic pension cost exceeds amounts the employer has contributed to the plan. 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. At September 30, 2006, our pension plans were underfunded by approximately $90.8 million since the projected benefit obligation exceeded the fair value of our plan assets. Similarly, we had accrued $4.4 million in respect of our non-pension postretirement benefit plan. Because the plans have received limited funding in the past, management anticipates future annual contributions to the plans will approximate estimated future benefit payments. These payments have been estimated based on the same actuarial assumptions used to measure our projected benefit obligation and currently are forecasted to range between $4.5 million and $5.5 million per annum.

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 accumulated benefit obligation (“ABO”) is calculated on a net present value basis, changes in the discount rate will also impact the current ABO. Decreases in the discount rate will generally increase pre-tax cost, recognized expense and the ABO. Increases in the discount rate tend to have the opposite effect. In estimating the expected return on plan assets, we consider the historical returns on plan assets, adjusted for forward-looking considerations, inflation assumptions and the impact of the active management of the plan’s invested assets. Reflecting the relatively long-term nature of the plan’s obligations, approximately 67% of the plan’s assets were invested in a diversified portfolio of bonds as of June 30, 2006, with the balance primarily invested in equities. While it is not possible to accurately predict future rate movements, we believe our current assumptions are conservative. Please refer to “Note 14. Employee Defined Benefit Plans” of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion.

Status of Acquired In-Process Research and Development Projects:

We periodically review the stage of completion and likelihood of success of each of the IPR&D projects. The nature of the efforts required to develop the IPR&D projects into commercially viable products principally relates to the completion of all planning, designing, prototyping, verification and testing activities that are necessary to establish that the products can be produced to meet their design specifications, including functions, features and technical performance requirements. The current status of the IPR&D projects from our significant acquisitions as of March 31,September 30, 2006 is as follows:

Agility

Agility Communications was acquired in November 2005, and at the time of acquisition was in the process of developing transponders with improved design and functionality for its widely-tunable laser technology. We have incurred post-acquisition costs of approximately $1.4 million to complete these projects through March 31, 2006, and we do not anticipate any further investment will be required.

Acterna

Acterna, Inc. was acquired in August 2005, and at the time of acquisition was in the process of developing multiple products. We have incurred post-acquisition costs of approximately $16.7$25.7 million to date and estimate that additional investment of approximately $12.7$4.5 million in research and development will be required during the remainder of fiscal years 2006 and 2007 to complete the IPR&D projects.

Lightwave

Lightwave Electronics Corporation was acquired in April 2005, and at the time of acquisition was in the process of developing multiple diode pumped solid state laser products. We have incurred post-acquisition costs of $2.3$3.7 million to date and estimate that additional investment of approximately $2.9$3.0 million in research and development will be required during the remainder of fiscal years 2006 and 2007 to complete the IPR&D projects.

E2O

E2O was acquired in May 2004 and was in the process of developing a shortwave Vertical-Cavity Surface-Emitting Laser (“VCSEL”) as of the date of acquisition. We have incurred post-acquisition costs of $2.7$3.5 million to date and estimate that an additional investment of approximately $0.2$0.4 million in research and development will be required. The project is expected to be completed in the fourththird quarter of fiscal 2006.2007. The differences between the actual outcome noted above and the assumptions used in the original valuation of the technology are not expected to have a significant impact on our results of operations and financial position.

Liquidity and Capital Resources Requirement

We believe that our existing cash balances and investments will be sufficient to meet our liquidity and capital spending requirements at least through the next 12 months. However, possible investments in or acquisitions of complementary businesses, products or technologies may require the use of additional cash or financing prior to such time. We have in recent periods consumed, and we may continue to consume, portions of our cash reserves to fund our operations. The amounts consumed to date, together with the amounts currently anticipated to be spent, are not expected to materially impair our financial condition. However, we may need to expend additional, currently unanticipated, cash reserves to fund our operations. Our liquidity could be negatively affected by a decline in demand for our products, which are subject to rapid technological changes, or a reduction of capital expenditures by telecommunications carriers.

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 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 other current assets or other current liabilities and the associated gains and losses are reflected in interest and other income, net in the Condensed 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 assets and liabilities.

The following table provides information about our foreign currency forward and option contracts outstanding as of March 31,September 30, 2006. The forward contracts, most with a tenorterm of less than one month,60 days, were transacted near month end; therefore, the fair value of the majority of the contracts is approximately zero.

The risk of counterparty nonperformance associated with these contracts is not considered to be material. Notwithstanding our efforts to mitigate some foreign exchange risks, there can be no assurances that our mitigating activities will adequately protect us against the risks associated with foreign currency fluctuations.

Investment and Interest Rate Risk:

OurWe maintain an investment portfolio consists ofin a variety of financial instruments, including, fixed-but not limited to, U.S. government and floating-rateagency bonds, municipal bonds,corporate obligations, money market instruments, corporate bondsfunds, asset-backed securities, and Treasury and Agencyother investment-grade securities. These instruments are not leveraged asThe majority of March 31, 2006, and are held for purposes other than trading. Partthese investments pay a fixed rate of ourinterest. 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. We also includesown a minority equity investmentsinvestment in several publicly traded companies,a publicly-traded company, the valuesvalue of which areis subject to market price volatility. These investments are generally classified as available-for-sale and, consequently, are recorded on our balance sheetsheets at fair value with unrealized gains or losses reported as a separate component of stockholders’ equity.

We manage ourInvestments in both fixed-rate and floating-rate interest earning instruments carry a degree of interest rate risk by maintaining anrisk. 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 portfolioincome may be less than expectations because of high credit quality and relatively short average maturity. We also manage interest rate risk by maintaining sufficient cash and cash equivalent balances such that we are typically able to hold our investments to maturity, if necessary. At any time, however, a sharp risechanges in interest rates couldor we may suffer losses in principal if forced to sell securities that have experienced a significant impact ondecline in market value because of changes in interest rates.

Convertible Debt

The fair market value of the Zero Coupon Senior Convertible Notes and the 1% Senior Convertible 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 our investment portfolio, while a sharp fall infixed interest rate debt will increase as interest rates may reduce future investment income from floating-rate securities.fall and decrease as interest rates rise. The fair market value of the notes will also increase as the market price of JDSU stock rises and decrease as the market price of the stock falls. Interest rate and market value 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 September 30, 2006 and June 30, 2006, the fair market values of the $475 million Zero Coupon Senior Convertible Notes were approximately $435.4 million and $441.3 million and the fair market values of the $425 million 1% Senior Convertible Notes were $373.5 million and $392.5 million, respectively.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of disclosure controlsDisclosure Controls and procedures.Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this report, JDS UniphaseQuarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management including our Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including itsour principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Even though processAs disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, there were control deficiencies resulting in adjustments, including audit adjustments recorded in the quarterly financial statements for the first three quarters of fiscal 2006. Process and control improvements have been implemented and additional key resources have been hired, however, we will continue to consider our disclosure controls and procedures to be not effective until testing of the improved processes and controls have been completed by the Company. During the first nine months offor fiscal year 2006, we took the following general remediation steps related to our 2005 material weaknesses as follows:2007.

Instituted recruiting efforts for the hire of additional finance staff including the hiring of a Senior Tax Director, Director of Corporate Accounting, Director of Revenue Recognition, Accounting Manager, and additional junior accounting staff. We are in the process of recruiting several other key positions such as Corporate Controller and Director of Technical Accounting;

Establish procedures to improve communications and the flow of corporate and financially significant information between finance other business functions; and

Establish process and procedures to implement improved controls around non routine transactions and to increase the level of analysis and review of complex, recurring and non recurring transactions.

Management continues to monitor, revise and execute its remediation plan. While the above general summary is designed to remediate the material weaknesses as described in our Form 10-K for fiscal year 2005, the actual remediation of the material weaknesses is subject to our 2006 year end procedures and the evaluation of the results of our testing. While we believe that our remediation efforts to date have improved our controls and procedures as compared to 2005, as of the date of this Form 10-Q, we have not fully remediated our prior year material weaknesses and may not by June 30, 2006. In addition, subject to our 2006 year end procedures and results of our testing, other material weaknesses may come to our attention that require remediation. We have made significant acquisitions during fiscal year ended 2006 that require our assessment of the acquired companies’ internal control policies, procedures, and practices.

integrating Acterna and Agility, our recent acquisitions, hadtwo companies which have internal control procedures and disclosure controls and procedures at the date of acquisition that hadwere not been designed or maintained for public company financial reporting. We will focus our efforts on improving their internal control over financial reporting.

In order to remediate the control deficiencies disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for our Communications Test & Measurement segment (created due to the acquisition of Acterna), management has taken and will evaluate the following actions:

For the material weakness in controls over our manufacturing facilities in Germantown and Indianapolis, we have completed the integration of the information technology infrastructure. We have recruited a Manufacturing Accounting Manager to support the Communications Test & Measurement segment and are in the process of implementing a formalized structure with increased levels of review and analysis for inventory transactions.

For the material weakness in the review of contractual sales terms that impact the amount and timing of revenue recognition, we have implemented processes to improve documentation of complex sales arrangements and established a formalized structure with increased levels of review and analysis to ensure that proper revenue recognition.

Not withstanding the above-mentioned weaknesses, we believe that the consolidated financial statement included in this report fairly present our consolidated financial position.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Although we have taken actions to remediate these material weaknesses, further action is required including the development and implementation of processes and financial resources to support the Communications Test & Measurement segment. Our management will continue to evaluate both Acterna’sclosely monitor the remediation plan. The effectiveness of the steps taken and Agility’s financialactions to be completed are subject to continuing management review and Audit Committee oversight, and we may make additional changes to our internal controls over financial reporting

Other than described above, there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected or is reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our

disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting are or will be capable of preventing or detecting all errors and asall fraud. Any control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. The design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Further, because of the endinherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the period covered by this report, have not yet fully completedcontrols. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving our evaluation. Based on thestated goals under all potential future conditions. Projections of any evaluation of controls effectiveness to date, we have concluded that significant remediation is needed and wefuture periods are taking actionssubject to improve the financial statement controls, procedures and processes. The decentralized nature of Acterna’s and Agility’s operations presents a significant challenge to our integration efforts.risks.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

Pending Litigation

The Securities Class Actions:

Litigation under the federal securities laws has been pending against the Company and certain former and current officers and directors since March 27, 2002. On July 26, 2002, the Northern District of California consolidated all the securities actions then filed in or transferred to that court under the titleIn re JDS Uniphase Corporation Securities Litigation, Master File No. C-02-1486 CW, and appointed the Connecticut Retirement Plans and Trust Funds as Lead Plaintiff or Connecticut’s Treasurer’s Office or CTO.Plaintiff.

The complaint inIn re JDS Uniphase Corporation Securities Litigation, C-02-1486 (N.D. Cal.), purports to be brought on behalf of a class consisting of those who acquired the Company’s securities from October 28, 1999, through July 26, 2001, as well as on behalf of subclasses consisting of those who acquired the Company’s common stock pursuant to its acquisitions of OCLI, E-TEK, and SDL. Plaintiffs allege that defendantsDefendants made material misstatements and omissions concerning demand for the company’sCompany’s products, improperly recognized revenue, overstated the value of inventory, and failed to timely write down goodwill. The complaint seeks unspecified damages and alleges various violations of the federal securities laws, specifically Sections 10(b), 14(a), 20(a), and 20A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Sections 11, 12(a)(2), and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933. In January 2005, the Court denied the motion to dismiss claims against the Company, Jozef Straus, Anthony R. Muller, and Charles Abbe, and granted in part and denied in part the motion to dismiss claims against Kevin Kalkhoven. Defendants subsequently filed answers denying liability for the claims asserted against them.

At a case management conference on July 15, 2005, the Court ordered the parties to mediate. Pursuant to the Court’s order, the parties appeared at mediation sessions on November 29, 2005, and March 28, 2006, before the Hon. Daniel Weinstein (Ret.) and Catherine Yanni, but did not succeed in resolving their differences.

On November 18, 2005, the Court held a case management conference. At that conference the Court ordered the fact discovery be completed by September 29, 2006, and that expert discovery be completed by January 29, 2007. On December 21, 2005, the Court granted CTO’sPlaintiffs’ motion for class certification. On January 23, 2006, CTO moved

A related securities case,Zelman v. JDS Uniphase Corp., No. C-02-4656 CW (N.D. Cal.), is purportedly brought on behalf of a class of purchasers of debt securities that were allegedly linked to the price of JDSU’s common stock. TheZelman complaint alleges that the debt securities were issued by an investment bank during the period from March 6, 2001 through July 26, 2001. The complaint names the Company and several of its former officers and directors as Defendants, alleges violations of the federal securities laws, specifically Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and Rule 10b-5, and seeks unspecified damages. On August 26, 2005, Defendants answered the complaint. On November 16, 2005, the Court granted Plaintiffs’ motion for class certification, which Defendants had not opposed. At a case management conference on November 18, 2005, the Court ordered that discovery in theZelman action proceed according to the same schedule as discoveryIn re JDS Uniphase Corporation Securities Litigation. On January 9,Accordingly, the deadline for fact discovery in theZelman action, except for depositions and discovery arising from new information obtained at depositions, was September 29, 2006, and the Court granted Plaintiffs’ motionclosing date for approvalcompletion of their proposed formdepositions and method of class notice, which Defendants had not opposed.discovery arising from new information obtained at depositions is December 1, 2006. The closing date for expert discovery is March 19, 2007. No trial date has been set.

The Derivative Actions:

Derivative actions purporting to be brought on the Company’s behalf have been filed in state and federal courts against several of the Company’s current and former officers and directors based on the same events alleged in the securities litigation. The complaint inCorwin v. Kaplan, No. C-02-2020 CW (N.D. Cal.), asserts state law claims for breach of fiduciary duty, misappropriation of confidential information, waste of corporate assets, indemnification, and insider trading. The complaint seeks unspecified damages. In January 2005, the Court stayed the action pending resolution ofIn re JDS Uniphase Corporation Securities Litigation. At the July 15, 2005 case management conferenceNo activity has occurred in that action, however, the Court suggested that any mediation of the federal securities action also should include the derivative action. Accordingly, the parties in the Corwin action appeared at a mediation session before Judge Weinstein and Ms. Yanni on November 30, 2005. The parties did not succeed in resolving their differences at that mediation.

On November 28, 2005, another derivative action was filed against JDSU and certain of its current and former officers and directors in federal court. That action, titledTrasky v. Straus, No. C-05-4855 (N.D. Cal.), asserts claims for breach of fiduciary duty, abuse of control, gross mismanagement, unjust enrichment, insider trading, and constructive fraud, and seeks unspecified damages and equitable relief. On March 16, 2006, theTrasky action was consolidated with theCorwin action which has been stayed since January 2005, as noted above.our last filing.

In the California state derivative action,In re JDS Uniphase Corporation Derivative Litigation, Master File No. CV806911 (Santa Clara Super. Ct.), the complaint asserts claims for breach of fiduciary duty, waste of corporate assets, abuse of control, gross mismanagement, unjust enrichment, and constructive fraud purportedly on behalf of the Company and certain of its current and former officers and directors. The complaint also asserts claims for violation of California Corporations Code Sections 25402 and 25502.5 against defendants who sold the Company’s stock and asserts claims for breach of contract, professional negligence, and negligent misrepresentation against the Company’s former auditor, Ernst & Young LLP. The complaint seeks unspecified damages.

On April 24, 2006, the Court approved the parties’ stipulation staying the California derivative action until January 16, 2007, subject to the parties’ rights to seek a lifting of the stay based on developments in the federal securities action. On April 24, 2006, the Court also approved the parties’ stipulation in the shareholder inspection demand action brought by the plaintiff in the California derivative action. Pursuant to that stipulation, the shareholder inspection demand action is stayed until January 16, 2007, subject to the parties’ rights to seek a lifting of the stay based on developments in the federal securities action. No activity has occurred in the California derivative action or the related shareholder inspection demand action since our last filing.

No activity has occurred inCromas v. Straus, Civil Action No. 19580 (Del. Ch. Ct.), the Delaware derivative action, since our last filing.

The OCLI and SDL Shareholder Actions:

Plaintiffs purporting to represent the former shareholders of OCLI and SDL have filed suit against the former directors of those companies, asserting that they breached their fiduciary duties in connection with the events alleged in the securities litigation against the Company. Plaintiffs in the OCLI action,Pang v. Dwight, No. 02-231989 (Sonoma Super. Ct.), purport to represent a class of former shareholders of OCLI who exchanged their OCLI shares for JDSU shares when JDSU acquired OCLI. The complaint names the former directors of OCLI as defendants,Defendants, asserts causes of action for breach of fiduciary duty and breach of the duty of candor, and seeks unspecified damages. No activity has occurred in the OCLI action since our last filing. The plaintiffsPlaintiffs in the SDL action,Cook v. Scifres, Master File No. CV814824 (Santa Clara Super. Ct.), purport to represent a class of former shareholders of SDL who exchanged their SDL shares for JDSU shares when the Company acquired SDL. Plaintiffs filed an amended complaint on September 12, 2005. The complaint names the former directors of SDL as Defendants, asserts causes of action for breach of fiduciary duty and breach of the duty of disclosure, and seeks unspecified damages. Defendants demurred to the complaint on October 12, 2005. ThatOn August 16, 2006, the Court sustained the demurrer is scheduledwith leave to be heard on August 15, 2006.amend. Plaintiffs have not filed an amended complaint as of the date of this filing. A case management conference is also scheduled for August 15,October 24, 2006. Limited discovery in the SDL action has occurred. No trial date has been set in either the OCLI or SDL action.

The ERISA Actions:

A consolidated action entitledIn re JDS Uniphase Corporation ERISA Litigation, Case No. C-03-4743 WWS (MEJ), is pending in the District Court for the Northern District of California against the Company, certain of its former and current officers and directors, and certain other current and former JDSU employees on behalf of a purported class of participants in the 401(k) Plans of the Company and OCLI.Optical Coating Laboratory, Inc. and the Plans themselves. On October 31, 2005, Plaintiffs filed an amended complaint. The amended complaint alleges that Defendants violated the Employee Retirement Income Security Act by breaching their fiduciary duties to the Plans and the Plans’ participants. The amended complaint alleges a purported class period from February 4, 2000, to the present and seeks an unspecified amount of damages, restitution, a constructive trust, and other equitable remedies. Defendants moved to dismiss the

Plaintiffs filed a second amended complaint on December 15, 2005. That motionJune 30, 2006. Defendants answered the complaint on July 6, 2006, and JDSU asserted counterclaims for breach of contract. The Court dismissed those counterclaims on September 11, 2006. A case management conference is scheduled to be heard on May 15,for November 1, 2006. PlaintiffsBoth sides have begun taking discovery. No trial date has been set.

The Company believes that the factual allegations and circumstances underlying these securities class actions, derivative actions, the OCLI and SDL class actions, and the ERISA class actions are without merit. The expense of defending these lawsuits has been costly, will continue to be costly, and could be quite significant and may not be covered by our insurance policies. The defense of these lawsuits could also result in continued diversion of our management’s time and attention away from business operations which could prove to be time consuming and disruptive to normal business operations. An unfavorable outcome or settlement of this litigation could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, liquidity or results of operations.

The Company is also subject to a variety of other 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 or results of operations, these matters are subject to inherent uncertainties and management’s view of these matters may change in the future. Were an unfavorable final outcome to occur, there exists the possibility of a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial position and on the results of operations for the period in which the effect becomes reasonably estimable.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

As part of the Company’s continuing process of regularly reassessing the risks of our business, mostA revised description of the risk factors associated with our business is set forth below have been updated frombelow. This description includes any material changes to and supersedes the Company’s most recent Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December 31, 2005, filed with the SEC on February 8, 2006. In particular,description of the risk factors entitled “If we incur more restructuring-related charges than currently anticipated,associated with our consolidated financial condition and results of operations may suffer”, “Variability of manufacturing yields may affect our gross margins”, “The use of open source softwarebusiness previously disclosed in our products, as well as thosePart I, Item 1A of our suppliers, manufacturers and customers, may expose us to additional risks and harm our intellectual property position” and “We are exposed to risks related to our indemnification of third parties” have been included in thisAnnual Report on Form 10-Q based on10-K for the Company’s current assessment of new or changing risks facing the Company.fiscal year ended June 30, 2006.

We have a history of net losses, and our future profitability is not assured.

We incurred net losses of $151.2 million, $261.3 million, $115.5 million and $933.8$115.5 million in our fiscal years ended June 30, 2006, 2005 and 2004, and 2003, respectively, and a net loss of $105.4 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2006.respectively. Although we have made progress both in reducing costs associated with our legacy business, as well as in significantly improving our operating results (principally through the acquisition of Acterna in the first quarter of fiscal 2006), a confluence of factors may reduce the impact of these improvements, and may also may undermine our ability to grow revenues or to achieve future profitability. These factors include, among others:

 

uncertain future telecom carrier and cable operator capital and research and development (“R&D”) spending levels, which particularly affects our OpCommOptical Communications and CommTestCommunications Test & Measurement segments;

 

fluctuations in demand for, and sales of, our products;

 

adverse changes to our product mix, both fundamentally (resulting from new product transitions, the declining profitability of certain legacy products and the termination of certain formerly higher margin products, among other things) and due to quarterly demand fluctuations;

 

adverse charges associated with underutilization of our manufacturing capacities;

 

intense pricing pressure across our product lines (due to competitive forces, increasingly from Asia,large, diversified Asian corporations and emerging optical companies based in China, and to a highly concentrated customer base for many of our product lines), which continues to offset many of the cost improvements we are realizing quarter over quarter;

 

availability and cost of components for our products;

 

increasing commoditization of previously differentiated products, principally in ourthe optical communications markets, and the concomitant negative effect on average selling prices and profit margins, particularly in our OpCommOptical Communications segment;

 

continuing execution challenges, particularly in our OpCommoptical communications and commercial laser product portfolio, which limit revenue opportunities and harm profitability, market opportunities and customer relations;

 

restructuring charges, employee severance expenses and other costs associated with asset divestitures, facility consolidations, product transfers, product terminations and other actions associated with our continuing restructuring activities;

revenue declines associated with terminated or divested product lines;

continuing redundant costs related to transitioning of manufacturing to low cost locations;

 

continuing high levels of selling, general and administrative, or (“SG&A,&A”) expenses; and

 

seasonal fluctuations in revenue from our CommTestCommunications Test & Measurement products.

Taken together, these factors limit our ability to predict future profitability levels. While some of these factors may diminish over time as we improve our cost structure and focus on enhancing our product mix, several factors, such as continuous pricing pressure, increasing Asia-based competition, increasing commoditization of previously-differentiated products, a highly concentrated customer base for many of our product lines and seasonal CommTestCommunications Test & Measurement revenue fluctuations, are likely to remain endemic to our businesses. If we fail to achieve profitability expectations, the price of our debt and equity securities, as well as our business and financial condition, may suffer.

Our Communications Test and Measurement Segment is particularly vulnerable to seasonal variations in its business.

The majority of the products in our CommTest segment are subject to significant seasonal fluctuations in demand. Reasons for this seasonal variation include, among other things, the customary capital equipment and research and design buying patterns of the telecommunications carriers and cable service providers, which are the most significant customers for our CommTest products. As a consequence, we expect seasonal demand fluctuations to cause significant, periodic variations in our financial results for this reportable segment. Moreover, our overall financial results will be adversely impacted by these seasonal fluctuations to the extent that financial results from our other reportable segments do not offset the declines in our CommTest segment.impacted.

If information networks do not continue to expand as expected, or if industry consolidation continues, our business will suffer.be adversely impacted.

Our future success as a manufacturer of optical components, modules and subsystems, and communications test and managementmeasurement products ultimately depends on the continued growth of the communications industry and, in particular, the continued expansion of global information networks. As part of that growth, we are relying on increasing demand for high-content voice, video, text and other data delivered over high-speed connections (i.e., high bandwidth communications). As network usage and bandwidth demand increase, so does the need for advanced networks to provide the required bandwidth and for advanced instruments and equipment to facilitate the installation, maintenance and operation of these networks. Without network and bandwidth growth, the need for our products, and hence our future growth as a manufacturer of these products, is jeopardized. Currently, while increasing demand for network services and for broadband access, in particular, is apparent, growth is limited by several factors including, among others, an uncertain regulatory environment, reluctance from content providers to supply video and audio content over the communications infrastructure, and uncertainty regarding long-term sustainable business models as multiple industries (cable, traditional telecommunications, wireless, satellite, etc.) offer non-complementary and competing content delivery solutions. More broadly, current consolidation trends among communications service providers and network equipment manufacturers could cause temporary or permanent delays in network expansion. Ultimately, should long-term expectations for network growth and bandwidth demand not be realized or not support sustainable business models, our customers and our business would be significantly harmed.

We believe that we will continue to rely upon a limited number of customers for a significant portion of our revenues for each period for the foreseeable future and any failure by us to capture a significant share of these customers could materially harm our business. Dependence on a limited number of customers exposes us to the risk that order reductions from any one customer can have a material adverse effect on periodic revenue. We believe that the telecommunications industry has entered a period of consolidation. To the extent that our direct communications equipment manufacturer customer base and their customer base, the service providers, consolidates, we will have increased dependence on fewer customers who may be able to exert increased pressure on our prices and contractual terms in general. Customer consolidation activity could also create the potential for pauses in customer demand for our products as a consequence of their new decision frameworks and periods of operational streamlining.

Our Communications Test & Measurement Segment is particularly vulnerable to seasonal variations in our business.

The majority of the products in our Communications Test & Measurement segment are subject to significant seasonal fluctuations in demand. Reasons for this seasonal variation include, among other things, the customary capital equipment and research and development buying patterns of the telecommunications carriers and cable service providers, which are the most significant customers for these products. As a consequence, we expect seasonal demand fluctuations to cause significant, periodic variations in our financial results for this reportable segment. Moreover, our overall financial results will be adversely impacted by these seasonal fluctuations to the extent that financial results from our other reportable segments do not offset the declines in our Communications Test & Measurement segment.

Without stability and growth in our non-communications businesses our margins and profitability may suffer.be adversely

impacted.

The CCPGAdvanced Optical Technologies segment and Lasers business unit represents a material, although varying, portion of our total net revenue. Gross margins associated with products in this segmentthese segments often exceed those from products in the OpCommOptical Communications segment. While we believe that actions we have taken in the last several quarters (including, among other things, divestitures, and end of life programs)programs, outsourcing and consolidation of manufacturing associated with certain optics and display products within this segment whose revenues have declined substantially) have significantly reduced the financial risk, associated with our optics and display business, revenue declines associated with CCPGAdvanced Optical Technologies have had, and may in the future continue to have, a disproportionate impact on total company profitability measures in any quarter. Accordingly, our strategy emphasizes the growth opportunities in all of our reported segments, as we seek to expand our markets and customer base, improve the profitability of our product portfolio and improve time to revenue. Therefore, we are engaged in exploring new investments, strategic partnerships and product opportunities in CCPG, particularly in our coating technologiesthe Advanced Optical Technologies and laser businesses, as well as in our pigments business.Lasers businesses. Contractions in these markets or our failure to execute programs related to such investments, partnerships and opportunities may significantly harm our business.

Our optics and display business has suffered significant recent setbacks and is subject to major transition and risk.

In recent periods, our optics and display revenues have declined substantially from historic levels, due to, among other things, product line terminations, market seasonality, increased competition, pricing pressures and uncertain demand levels. In response, we have elected to phase out or divest certain products, outsource the manufacture of one product and consolidate the manufacturing resources related to the remainder of the business. We may incur additional costs or suffer additional adverse financial and operational impacts related to declines in our optics and display business.

Actions to improve our cost structure are costly and risky and the timing and extent of expected benefits is uncertain.

In response to our profitability concerns we are working vigorously to reduce our cost structure. We have taken, and expect to continue to take, significant actions (including site closures, product transfers, asset divestitures and product terminations) in furtherance of this goal. In this regard, over the past several quarters we have initiated several major cost reduction initiatives. These initiatives include the transfer of manufacturing of certain of our products to contract manufacturing partners and our Shenzhen, China, facilities, site consolidations and divestitures, product line and operations divestitures, end of life programs and significant headcount reductions. We expect to continue to opportunistically take additional, similar actions for the foreseeable future opportunistically.future. We cannot be certain that these programs will be successful or completed as and when anticipated. These programs are costly, and we have incurred, and will continue to incur, expenses to complete them. In addition, these programs are risky, as they are time-consuming and disruptive to our operations, employees, customers and suppliers, with no guarantee that the expected results (particularly cost savings and profitability expectations) will be achieved as and when projected or that the costs to complete these programs will not increase above expected levels. Cost savings achieved through these programs may not be timely or sufficient enough to offset continuing pricing declines.

If we incur more restructuring-related charges than currently anticipated, our consolidated financial condition and results of operations may suffer.be adversely impacted.

In April 2001, we initiated the Global Realignment Program, or GRP, under which we began restructuring our business in response to the economic downturn. Through June 30, 2005,In the first quarter of fiscal year 2007, we recorded total related restructuring charges of $659.0 million, before net cumulative adjustments of ($6.8)$5.2 million. Through the nine months ended March 31, 2006, we recorded restructuringThese charges of $28.5 million, and in the future, may incur additional charges or write-offs in connection with restructurings. These charges,

along with other charges, have adversely affected, and will continue to adversely affect, our results of operations and cash flows for the periods in which such charges have been, or will be, incurred. In the future, we may incur additional charges or write-offs in connection with restructuring initiatives.

If our contract manufacturers fail to perform their obligations, our business will suffer.be adversely impacted.

We are increasing our use of contract manufacturers as ana cost effective alternative to internal manufacturing.manufacturing of lower complexity, higher volume products. Among other things, we recently transferred, or have agreed to transfer, several of our facilities, assets and manufacturing operations to our contract manufacturer, Fabrinet Co. Ltd., and have also agreed to transfer the manufacture of certain other products to an additional contract manufacturer. Accordingly,As a result, our reliance on these and other contract manufacturers as primary manufacturing resources is growing significantly. Consequently, we are increasingly exposed to the general risks associated with the businesses, operations and financial condition of our contract manufacturers, including, among other things, the risks of bankruptcy, insolvency, management changes, adverse change of control, natural disasters, and local political or economic volatility or instability. Thus, if our contract manufacturers do not fulfill their obligations to us on a timely basis for any reason, or if we do not properly manage these relationships and the transition of assets, operations and product manufacturing to these contract manufacturers, our business and customer relationships will suffer.be adversely impacted. In addition, by undertaking these activities, we run the risk that the reputation and competitiveness of our products and services may deteriorate as a result of the reduction of our control over quality and delivery schedules. We also may experience supply interruptions, cost escalations and competitive disadvantages if our contract manufacturers fail to develop, implement or maintain manufacturing methods appropriate for our products and customers. In this regard, we have experienced, and continue to periodically experience, difficulties (such as delays, interruptions and quality problems) associated with products we have transferred to contract manufacturers. If we are forced to transfer manufacturing from one contract manufacturer to another there would likely be additional cost and delay involved. These may continue, resulting in, among other things, lost revenue opportunities, customer dissatisfaction and additional costs.

We have continuing concerns regarding the manufacture, quality and distribution of our products. These concerns are heightened as new product offerings and overall demand increase.

Our success depends upon our ability to deliver high qualityboth our current product offerings and new products and technologies on time and at acceptable cost to our customers. As a technology company, we constantly encounter quality, volume and cost concerns. Currently, a combination of factors is exacerbating our concerns, including:

 

our continuing cost reduction programs, which include site consolidations, asset divestitures, product transfers (internally and to contract manufacturers) and employee reductions, require the re-establishment and re-qualification by our customers of complex manufacturing lines, as well as modifications to systems, planning and operational infrastructure. During this process, we have experienced, and continue to experience additional costs, delays in re-establishing volume production levels, supply chain interruptions, planning difficulties, inventory issues, factory absorption concerns, and systems integration problems;

 

increases in demand for certain of our products, in the midst of our cost reduction programs, are straining our execution abilities as well as those of our suppliers, as we are experiencing periodic and varying capacity, workforce and materials constraints, enhanced by the impact of our ongoing product and operational transfers; and

 

recently, we have commenced a series of new product programs and introductions, particularly in our circuit pack, communications modules, optical switches and communications test and management products, which due to the untested and untried nature of the relevant products and of their

manufacture with their increased complexity, expose us to yield and product risk internally and with our materials suppliers.

manufacture with their increased complexity, expose us to yield and product quality risk internally and with our materials suppliers.

These factors have caused considerable strain on our execution capabilities and customer relations. Currently, we are (a) having periodic difficulty responding to customer delivery expectations for some of our products, (b) experiencing yield and quality problems, particularly with some of our new products and higher volume products, and (c) expending additional funds and other resources to respond to these execution challenges. We are currently losing revenue opportunities due to these concerns. We are also, in the short-term, diverting resources from new product research and development and other functions to assist with resolving these matters. If we do not improve our performance in all of these areas, our operating results will be harmed, the commercial viability of new products may be challenged and our customers may choose to reduce their purchases of our products and purchase additional products from our competitors.

Variability of manufacturing yields may affect our gross margins.

We manufacture products using highly complex processes that require technologically advanced equipment and continuous modification to improve yields and performance. Manufacturing yields depend on a number of factors, including the volume of production due to customer demand and the nature and extent of changes in specifications required by customers for which we perform design-in work. Difficulties in the manufacturing process, the effects from a shift in product mix, changes in product specifications and the introduction of new product lines can reduce yields or disrupt production and thereby increase our manufacturing costs. We may experience difficulties in achieving planned yields, which may adversely affect our gross margins. An increase in the rejection rate of products during the quality control process can also result in lower yields and margins. If we are unable to continue to improve yields in the future, particularly during the production of new products or introduction of new process technologies, we may be unable to meet our customers’ requirements and our results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

If our customers do not qualify our manufacturing lines for volume shipments, our operating results could suffer.be adversely impacted.

Customers will not purchase certain of our products, other than limited numbers of evaluation units, prior to qualification of the manufacturing lines for the products. This concern is particularly relevant to us as we continue programs to reduce costs through targeted, customer-driven, restructuring events, which involve the relocation of certain of our manufacturing internally and to external manufacturers. Each new and relocated manufacturing line must undergo rigorous qualification testing with our customers. The qualification process can be lengthy and is expensive, with no guarantee that any particular product qualification process will lead to profitable product sales. The qualification process determines whether the manufacturing line achieves the customers’ quality, performance and reliability standards. Our expectations as to the time periods required to qualify a product line and ship products in volumes to customers may be erroneous. Delays in qualification can cause a long-termlong-

term supply program to be cancelled. These delays will also impair the expected timing, and may impair the expected amount, of sales of the affected products. Nevertheless, we may, in fact, experience delays in obtaining qualification of our manufacturing lines and, as a consequence, our operating results and customer relationships would be harmed.

We could incur significant costs to correct defective products.

Our products are rigorously tested for quality both by our customers and by us. Nevertheless, our products do, and may continue to, fail to meet customer expectations from time-to-time. Also, not all defects are immediately detectible. Customers’ testing procedures are limited to evaluating our products under likely and foreseeable failure scenarios. For various reasons (including, among others, the occurrence of performance problems that are unforeseeable in testing or that are detected only when products are fully deployed and operated under peak stress conditions), our products may fail to perform as expected long after customer acceptance. Failures could result from faulty design or problems in manufacturing. In either case, we could incur significant costs to repair and/or replace defective products under warranty, particularly when such failures occur in installed systems. We have experienced such failures in the past and remain exposed to such failures, as our products are widely deployed throughout the world in multiple demanding environments and applications. In some cases, product redesigns or additional capital equipment may be required to correct a defect. We have in the past increased our warranty reserves and have incurred significant expenses relating to certain communications products. Any significant product failure could result in lost future sales of the affected product and other products, as well as severe customer relations problems, litigation and damage to our reputation.

If we cannot develop new product offerings or if our new product offerings fail in the market, our business will suffer.

We are a technology-dependent company. Our success or failure depends, in large part, upon our ability to continuously and successfully introduce and market new products and technologies meeting or exceeding our customers’ expectations in a timely manner. Accordingly, we intend to continue to develop new product lines and improve the business for existing ones. However, we have considerably reduced our research and development spending from historic levels and some of our competitors now spend considerably higher percentages of their revenues on research and development than we do. If we fail to develop and sustain a robust, commercially viable product pipeline, our business will suffer.

In recent periods, we have increased our focus on new products, particularly in our circuit pack, communications modules, optical switches and test and measurement businesses. However, several of the key relevant products are untried and untested and have not yet demonstrated long-term commercial viability. Occasionally, problems occur causing us to cancel or adjust new product programs. Current challenges, which we are experiencing across our new product efforts, include establishing sustainable pricing and cost models, predictable and acceptable quality and yields, and adequate and reliable supply chains, as well as demonstrating our (and our suppliers’) ability to scale and provide adequate facilities, personnel and other resources. We are also experiencing market timing concerns for some of our product offerings. If we fail to successfully develop and commercialize some or all of these new products, our business could suffer.

Signs of market stability are not necessarily indicative of long-term growth.

While our direct communications equipment manufacturer customer base has remained largely intact, their customer base, the service providers, has been significantly reduced due to industry consolidations and the reduction of the competitive local exchange carriers. These consolidations have the potential to directly impact our communications test business, which includes all of the major telecommunications service providers in its customer base, as well as our OpComm products. Notwithstanding signs of market stability, visibility into our markets, particularly the telecommunications market, remains limited and average selling prices continue to decline, creating uncertainty and variability in our revenue and profitability targets and projections. Because our visibility remains limited, we remain cautious and cannot predict the timing or magnitude of growth for our industries or our business at this time.

The communications equipment industry has extremely long product development cycles requiring us to incur product development costs without assurances of an acceptable investment return.

The telecommunications industry is a capital-intensive industry similar, in many respects, to any other infrastructure development industry. Large volumes of equipment and support structures are installed over vast areas, with considerable expenditures of funds and other resources, with long investment return period expectations. Moreover, reliability requirements are intense. Consequently, there is significant resistance to network redesigns and upgrades. Redesigns and upgrades of installed systems are undertaken only as required in response to user demand and competitive pressures and generally only after the applicable carrier has received sufficient return on its considerablemajor investment. At the component supplier level this creates considerable, typically multi-year, gaps between the commencement of new product development and volume purchases. Accordingly, we and our competitors often incur significant research and development and sales and marketing costs for products that, at the earliest, will be purchased by our customers long after much of the cost is incurred and, in some cases, may never be purchased due to changes in industry or customer requirements in the interim.

Our business and financial condition could be harmed by our long-term growth strategy.

We have made, and expect in the future to make, significant investments to enable our future growth through, among other things, internal expansion programs, product development, acquisitions and other strategic initiatives. We may continue to grow our business through business combinations or other acquisitions of businesses, products or technologies. We continually evaluate and explore strategic opportunities as they arise, including business combinations, strategic partnerships, capital investments and the purchase, licensing or sale of assets. Acquisitions typically entail many risks (see “—Risks“Risks in acquisitions”). If we fail to manage or anticipate our future growth effectively, particularly during periods of industry uncertainty, our business will suffer.be adversely impacted. Through our cost reductions measures we are balancing the need to consolidate our operations with the need to preserve our ability to grow and scale our operations as our markets stabilize and recover. If we fail to achieve this balance, our business will sufferbe adversely impacted to the extent our resources and operations are insufficient to support growth.

A significant portion of our sales are dependent upon orders from a few key customers.

Apart from our CommTest segment, a few large customers account for most of our net revenue. Dependence on a limited number of customers exposes us to the risk that order reductions from any one customer can have a material adverse effect on periodic revenue.

One of our products is dependent upon a single customer for a majority of sales.

We have a strategic alliance with SICPA, our principal customer for our light interference pigments whichmicroflakes that are used to, among other things, provide security features in currency. Under a license and supply agreement, we rely exclusively on SICPA to market and sell thisone of these product lines, Optically Variable Pigment (OVP®), for document authentication applications worldwide. The agreement requires SICPA to purchase minimum quantities of these pigments over the term of the agreement. If SICPA fails to purchase these quantities, as and when required by the agreement, for any reason, our business and operating results (including, among other things, our revenue and gross margin) will be harmed, at least in the short-term. In the long-term, we may be unable to find a substitute marketing and sales partner or develop these capabilities ourselves.

We depend on a limited number of vendors.

We depend on a limited number of contract manufacturers, subcontractors, and suppliers for raw materials, packages and standard components. Many of our important products rely on single-source suppliers for critical materials. These products include several of our advanced components, modules and subsystem products across our business. We generally purchase these single or limited source products through standard purchase orders or one-year supply agreements, and we have no long-term guaranteed supply agreements with such suppliers. In addition, many of our important suppliers are small companies facing financial stability, quality, yield, scale or delivery concerns. Some of these companies may be acquired, undergo material reorganizations or become insolvent. Others are larger companies with limited dependency upon our business, resulting in unfavorable pricing, quantity or delivery terms. The recent signs of market stability in our business have exacerbated these concerns as we increase our purchasing to meet our customers’ demands. While we are currently undertaking programs to ensure the long-term strength of our supply chain, we are experiencing and expect to continue to experience, strain on our supply chain and periodic supplier problems. Our business and results of operations could be adversely affected by a stoppage or delay of supply, substitution of more expensive or less reliable products, receipt of defective parts or contaminated materials, an increase in the price of such supplies, or our inability to obtain reduced pricing from our suppliers in response to competitive pressures. In addition, these problems have affected, and will continue to affect, our ability to meet customer expectations. If we do not identify and implement long-term solutions to our supply chain concerns, our customer relationships and business will be materially suffer.impacted.

We generally use a rolling twelve and fifteen month forecast based on anticipated product orders, customer forecasts, product order history, warranty and service demand, and backlog to determine our material requirements. Lead times for the parts and components that we order vary significantly and depend on factors such as the specific supplier, contract terms and demand for a component at a given time. If actual orders do not match our forecasts, we may have excess or shortfalls of some materials and components as well as excess inventory purchase commitments. We could experience reduced or delayed product shipments or incur additional inventory write-downs and cancellation charges or penalties, which would increase costs and could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations.

Any failure to remain competitive would harm our operating results.

The markets in which we sell our products are highly competitive and characterized by rapidly changing and converging technologies, as well as continuous pricing pressure. We face intense competition from established domestic and international competitors and the threat of future competition from new and emerging companies in all aspects of our business. Much of our current competition comes from large, diversified Asian corporations, and emerging optical companies based in China. These competitors have considerable expertise, and often very low cost structures. The competitive threat is exacerbated by the overall trend towards increased commoditization of traditionally highly differentiated products, particularly in our OpComm segment. Increased pricing pressures have resulted in lower average selling prices for our OpComm products and continued operating losses for fiscal 2005 and the six months ended December 31, 2005. We expect Asian, and particularly Chinese, competition to increase across our portfolio. To remain competitive in both the current and future business climates, we believe we must maintain a substantial commitment to innovation and product differentiation, as well as significantly improve our cost structure. Our efforts to remain competitive may be unsuccessful.

Risks in acquisitions.

Our growth is dependent upon market growth, our ability to enhance our existing products and the introduction of new products on a timely basis. We have and will continue to address the need to develop

new products through acquisitions of other companies and technologies. Acquisitions involve numerous risks, including the following:

 

difficulties in integrating the operations, technologies, products and personnel of the acquired companies;

 

inadequate internal control procedures and disclosure controls to comply with the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002;

 

diversion of management’s attention from normal daily operations of the business;

 

potential difficulties in completing projects associated with in-process research and development;

 

difficulties in entering markets in which we have no or limited direct prior experience and where competitors in such markets have stronger market positions;

 

insufficient net revenue to offset increased expenses associated with acquisitions; and

 

potential loss of key employees of the acquired companies.

Acquisitions may also cause us to:

 

issue common stock that would dilute our current shareholders’ percentage ownership;

 

assume liabilities, some of which may be unknown at the time of such acquisitions;

 

record goodwill and non-amortizable intangible assets that will be subject to impairment testing and potential periodic impairment charges;

incur amortization expenses related to certain intangible assets;

 

incur large and immediate write-offs of in-process research and development costs; or

 

become subject to litigation.

Mergers and acquisitions of high-technology companies are inherently risky, and no assurance can be given that our previous or future acquisitions will be successful or will not adversely affect our business, operating results, or financial condition. We are currently devoting significant resources to the integration of our recent acquisition of Acterna, which among other things, requires significant investment in IT systems and infrastructure. Failure to manage and successfully integrate acquisitions could harm our business and operating results in a material way. Even when an acquired company has already developed and marketed products, there can be no assurance that product enhancements will be made in a timely fashion or that all pre-acquisition due diligence will have identified all possible issues that might arise with respect to such products.

Expenses relating to acquired in-process research and development costs are charged in the period in which an acquisition is completed. These charges may occur in future acquisitions resulting in variability in our quarterly earnings.

If we fail to attract and retain key personnel, our business could suffer.be adversely impacted.

Our future depends, in part, on our ability to attract and retain key personnel. We may not be able to hire and retain such personnel at compensation levels consistent with our existing compensation and salary structure. Our future also depends on the continued contributions of our executive management team and other key management and technical personnel, each of whom would be difficult to replace. The loss of service from these or other executive officers or key personnel or the inability to continue to attract qualified personnel could have a material adverse effect on our business. Retention of key talent is an increasing concern as we continue to implement cost improvement programs, including product transfers and site reductions, and as we continue to address our profitability concerns.

Similar to other technology companies, particularly those located in Silicon Valley, we rely upon our ability to use stock options and other forms of stock-based compensation as key components of our executive and employee compensation structure. Historically, these components have been critical to our ability to retain important personnel and offer competitive compensation packages. Without these components, we would be required to significantly increase cash compensation levels (or develop alternative compensation structures) in order to retain our key employees, particularly as and when an industry recovery returns. Recent requirements mandating the expensing of stock-based compensation awards may cause us to substantially reduce, or even eliminate, all or portions of our stock-based compensation programs which may negatively impact our ability to attract and retain key employees.

If we fail to attract and retain key finance personnel, our ability to maintain internal control over financial reporting may be impaired.

We recently experienced a significant amounthave filled most of turnover within our corporate accounting and finance department, including the departure of our Vice-President and Corporate Controller, and our Corporate Accounting Manager. We are actively recruiting to fill these and other vacancies within our corporate and operations finance teams.organization. In addition,the past two years, we are endeavoring to strengthenhave strengthened the technical capabilities of existing accountingfinance management staff through the hiring of our Corporate Controller, Technical Accounting Director, Assistant Corporate Controller, and Manufacturing Controller. We will continue to recruit key finance personnel.personnel to support the operations of our Communications Test & Measurement segment, established through our acquisition of Acterna, which had previously been a privately held company with internal control procedures and disclosure controls and procedures that were not designed or maintained for public company reporting. If we are unable to attract and retain our key finance personnel we may not be able to sustain our internal controls over financial reporting.

Our financeFinance personnel in new positions may require additional quarterly reporting cycles to be fully trained and fully familiar with our historically complex non-routine transactions.transactions and the challenges of integrating Acterna and other strategic acquisitions. Should we becontinue to experience turnover or are unable to recruit the additionalfinancial personnel needed in the corporate accounting and finance function to strengthen our technical capabilities,functions, or should we increase the demands increase on our current resources with a largedue to an increase in the number of complex, non-routine transactions, our internal control over financial reporting could suffer.be adversely impacted. This could result in material weaknesses similar to the ones identified in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2005. We will also be challenged with the integration of Acterna which will further stretch our finance organization resources.internal controls over financial reporting.

Certain of our non-communications related products are subject to governmental and industry regulations, certifications and approvals.

The commercialization of certain of the products we design, manufacture and distribute through our CCPGAdvanced Optical

Technologies segment and Lasers business unit may be more costly due to required government approval and industry acceptance processes. Development of applications for our light interference pigment productsand diffractive microflakes may require significant testing that could delay our sales. For example, certain uses in cosmetics may be regulated by the Food and Drug Administration, which has extensive and lengthy approval processes. Durability testing by the automobile industry of our pigmentsdecorative microflakes used with automotive paints can take up to three years. If we change a product for any reason, including technological changes or changes in the manufacturing process, prior

approvals or certifications may be invalid and we may need to go through the approval process again. If we are unable to obtain these or other government or industry certifications in a timely manner, or at all, our operating results could be adversely affected.

We face risks related to our international operations and revenue.

Our customers are located throughout the world. In addition, we have significant offshore operations, including product development, manufacturing, sales and customer support operations. Our operations outside North America include product development and manufacturing facilities in Europe and Asia and service, sales and support offices worldwide.

Our international presence exposes us to certain risks, including the following:

 

Our ability to comply with customs, import/export and other trade compliance regulations of the countries in which we do business, together with any unexpected changes in such regulations;

 

difficulties in establishing and enforcing our intellectual property rights;

 

tariffs and other trade barriers;

 

political, legal and economic instability in foreign markets, particularly in those markets in which we maintain manufacturing and product development facilities;

 

difficulties in staffing and management;

 

language and cultural barriers;

 

seasonal reductions in business activities in the countries where our international customers are located;

 

integration of foreign operations;

 

longer payment cycles;

 

greater difficulty in accounts receivable collection;

 

difficulties in management of foreign distributors;

currency fluctuations; and

 

potential adverse tax consequences.

Net revenue from customers outside North Americathe Americas accounted for 40%43% and 36%38% of our total net revenue infor the thirdfirst quarter of fiscal 20062007 and 2005,2006, respectively. We expect that net revenue from customers outside North America will continue to account for a significant portion of our total net revenue. Lower sales levels that typically occur during the summer months in Europe and some other overseas markets may materially and adversely affect our business. In addition, sales ofthe revenues we derive from many of our customers depend on international sales and consequently further expose us to the risks associated with such international sales.

The international dimensions of our operations and sales subject us to a myriad of domestic and foreign trade regulatory requirements. As part of our ongoing integration program, we are evaluating our current trade compliance practices and implementing improvements where necessary. Among other things, we are

auditing our product export classification and customs procedures and are installing trade information and compliance systems using our global enterprise software platforms. We do not currently expect the costs of such evaluation or the implementation of any resulting improvements to have a material adverse effect on our operating results or business. However, our evaluation and related implementation are not yet complete and, accordingly, the costs could be greater than expected, and such costs and the legal consequences of any failure to comply with applicable regulations could affect our business and operating results.

Changes in our effective tax rate or adverse outcomes resulting from tax audits may have an adverse impact our results.

As an international corporation, we are subject to taxation in the various jurisdictions in which we conduct business. Significant judgment is required in the determination of our worldwide provision for income taxes and this determination requires the interpretation and application of complex and sometimes uncertain tax laws and regulations. Our effective tax rate may be adversely impacted by changes in the mix of earnings between countries which have different statutory tax rates, in the valuation of our deferred tax assets, and by changes in tax rules and regulations. We are subject to income tax audits in the respective jurisdictions in which we conduct business and we regularly assess the likelihood of adverse outcomes resulting from these tax audits to ascertain the adequacy of our provision for income taxes. There can be no assurance that the outcomes of these tax audits will not have an adverse impact on our results and financial condition.

We are increasing operations in China, which exposes us to risks inherent in doing business in China.

As a result of our efforts to reduce costs, we have increased our manufacturing operations in China. Looking ahead we expect to expand our research and development activities in China. Our China-based activities are subject to greater political, legal and economic risks than those faced by our other operations. See “We face risks related to our international operations and revenue.” These concerns will increase as we expand our activities in China to include product research and development, which may expose our critical technology to foreign misappropriation. In particular, the political, legal and economic climate in China (both at national and regional levels) is extremely fluid and unpredictable. Our ability to operate in China may be adversely affected by changes in Chinese laws and regulations, such as those relating to taxation, import and export tariffs, environmental regulations, land use rights, intellectual property and other matters, which laws and regulations remain highly underdeveloped and subject to change, with little or no prior notice, for political or other reasons. Moreover, the enforceability of applicable existing Chinese laws and regulations is uncertain. These concerns are heightened for foreign businesses, such as ours, operating in China. In addition, we may not obtain the requisite legal permits to continue to operate in China and costs or operational limitations may be imposed in connection with obtaining and complying with such permits. Our business could be materially harmed by any changes to the political, legal or economic climate in China or the inability to enforce applicable Chinese laws and regulations.

Currently, we operate manufacturing facilities located in Shenzhen and Beijing, China. As part of our efforts to reduce costs, we continue to increase the scope and extent of our manufacturing operations in our Shenzhen facilities. Accordingly, we expect that our ability to operate successfully in China will become increasingly important to our overall success. As we continue to consolidate our manufacturing operations, we will incur additional costs to transfer product lines to our facilities located in China, including costs of qualification testing with our customers, which could have a material adverse impact on our operating results and financial condition. See alsoAlso see “If our customers do not qualify our manufacturing lines for volume shipments, our operating results could suffer.be adversely impacted.

As a result of a government order to ration power for industrial use, operations in our Shenzhen facilities may be subject to possible interruptions or shutdowns. Our ability to complete manufacturing commitments on a timely basis may be adversely affected. If we are required to make significant investments in generating capacity to sustain uninterrupted operations at our Shenzhen facilities, we may not realize the reductions in costs anticipated from our expansion in China. In addition, future outbreaks of avian influenza, or other communicable diseases, could result in quarantines or closures of our Beijing and Shenzhen facilities, thereby disrupting our operations and expansion in China.

We intend to export the majority of the products manufactured at our facilities in China. Accordingly, upon application to and approval by the relevant governmental authorities, we will not be subject to certain Chinese taxes and are exempt from customs duty assessment on imported components or materials when the finished products are exported from China. We are, however, required to pay income taxes in China, subject to certain tax relief. As the Chinese trade regulations are in a state of flux, we may become subject to other forms of taxation and duty assessments in China or may be required to pay for export license fees in the future. In the event that we become subject to any increased taxes or new forms of taxation imposed by authorities in China, our results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

Managing our inventory is complex and may include write-downs of excess or obsolete inventory.

Managing our inventory of components and finished products is a complex task. A number of factors, including the need to maintain a significant inventory of certain components that are in short supply or that must be purchased in bulk to obtain

favorable pricing or require long lead times, may result in our maintaining large amounts of inventory. In addition, we base many of our operating decisions, and enter into purchase commitments, on the basis of anticipated revenue trends which are highly unpredictable. Inventory which is not used or expected to be used as and when planned may become excess or obsolete. Any excess or obsolete inventory could also result in sales price reductions and/or inventory write-downs, which historically have adversely affected our business and results of operations, and we expect to continue.

Our business and operations would sufferbe adversely impacted in the event of a failure of our information technology infrastructure.

We rely upon the capacity, reliability and security of our information technology hardware and software infrastructure and our ability to expand and update this infrastructure in response to our changing needs. We are constantly updating our information technology infrastructure. For example, we have entered into an agreement with Oracle to provide and maintain our global ERP infrastructure on an outsourced basis. Any failure to manage, expand and update our information technology infrastructure or any failure in the operation of this infrastructure could harm our business.

Our recent acquisitions of Acterna and Agility create additional burden and risk, in the short term, as we expend resources to install the appropriate information technology systems and other processes to address our expanded operations. The integration of Acterna is of particular concern to our information technology infrastructure due to Acterna’s size and complexity. Converting Acterna’s business processes, data and applications to our standards continues to be a complex and time-consuming task. During this transition period, we are exposed to the risks associated with incompatible and complex reporting systems.

Despite our implementation of security measures, our systems are vulnerable to damages from computer viruses, natural disasters, unauthorized access and other similar disruptions. Any system failure, accident or security breach could result in disruptions to our operations. To the extent that any disruptions or security breach results in a loss or damage to our data, or in inappropriate disclosure of confidential information, it could harm our business. In addition, we may be required to incur significant costs to protect against damage caused by these disruptions or security breaches in the future.

If we fail to remediate our current system of internal controls to an effective level, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results or prevent fraud. As a result, our business could be harmed and current and potential investors could lose confidence in our financial reporting, which could have a negative effect on the trading price of our debt and equity securities.

Effective internal controls are necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports and to effectively prevent fraud. If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, our brand, operating results and the market value of our debt and equity securities could be harmed. We have in the past discovered, and may in the future discover, areas of our internal controls that need improvement. Specifically, our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 20052006 identified certain material weaknessesweakness in our internal controls processes.processes identified by our independent registered public accounting firm.

We are currently devotinghave devoted significant resources to remediate and improve our internal controls. We have not completed such remediation or improvements and we may fail to do so. Also, wealso been monitoring the effectiveness of these remediated measures. We cannot be certain that these measures will ensure that we implement and maintain adequate controls over our financial processes and reporting in the future. We intend to continue implementing changes to our processes to improve internal controls over financial reporting. Any failure to implement required new or improved controls, or

difficulties encountered in their implementation, could harm our operating results or cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations.

Inadequate internal controls could also cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, which could have a negative effect on the trading price of our debt and equity securities. Further, the impact of these events could also make it more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified persons to serve on our board of directors or as executive officers, which could harm our business. The additions of Acterna and Agility have significantly increased the burden on our systems and infrastructure, and impose additional risk to the successful completion of our remediation plans, as well as to the ongoing effectiveness of our internal controls, and disclosure controls, and procedures. As privately-held companies, both Acterna and Agility lacked the systems, and reporting infrastructure, and internal control procedures typical of a publicly-held company of similar size and complexity. The integration of Acterna is of particular concern to our internal controls, disclosure controls, and procedures due to Acterna’s size and complexity. Consequently, we expect to expend significant resources and effort in this regard and are not certain that our efforts will be successful.

If we fail to timely file with the trustee of our senior convertible notesZero Coupon Senior Convertible Notes or our 1% Senior Convertible Notes certain information, documents and reports required to be filed by us with the SEC, the holders of our senior convertiblesuch notes could demand all such notesbecome due and payable immediately. As a result, our liquidity position could be adversely impacted or we may not have enough cash to pay the note holders, which would harm our business and the trading price of our stock.debt and equity securities.

Recently, we have had difficulty filing certain of our reports with the SEC in the accelerated timeframe required by the SEC. Under the terms of both of the indentureindentures governing our senior convertible notes, we must comply with certain covenants, agreements and conditions, including filing with the trustee certain information, documents and reports required to be filed by us with the SEC. Certain failures to comply with the filing of such reports with the trustee would constitute a default. Upon such a default, the trustee or holders of 25% of the outstanding principal of theeither series of notes have the option to send us a notice of default, demanding that such default be cured within 60 days. If we receive such a notice of default, we will be required to cure such default within 60 days or obtain a waiver from holders of a majority of the outstanding principal balance of theeach series of notes. If we cannot cure such default within 60 days or obtain a waiver, the notes could be accelerated. WeThis could severely impact our liquidity position or, under certain circumstances, we may not have enough cash to pay the note holders, in such event, which would harm our business and the trading price of our stock.debt and equity securities.

If we have insufficient proprietary rights or if we fail to protect those we have, our business would be materially harmed.

We may not obtain the intellectual property rights we require.

Others, including academic institutions, our competitors and other large technology-based companies, hold numerous patents in the industries in which we operate. Some of these patents may purport to cover our products. In response, we may seek to acquire license rights to these or other patents or other intellectual property to the extent necessary to ensure we possess sufficient intellectual property rights for the conduct of our business. Unless we are able to obtain such licenses on commercially reasonable terms, patents or other intellectual property held by others could inhibit our development of new products, impede the sale of some of our current products, or substantially increase the cost to provide these products to our customers. In the past, licenses generally have been available to us where third-party technology was necessary or useful for the development or production of our products. In the future licenses to third-party technology may not be available on commercially reasonable terms, if at all. Generally, a license, if granted, includes payments by us of up-front fees, ongoing royalties or a combination of both. Such royalties or other terms could have a significant adverse impact on our operating results. We are a licensee of a number of third-party technologies and intellectual property rights and are required to pay royalties to these third-party licensors on certain software used by us as well as on some of our telecommunications products and laser subsystems.

Our products may be subject to claims that they infringe the intellectual property rights of others.

The industry in which we operate experiences periodic claims of patent infringement or other intellectual property rights. We have received in the past and, from time to time, may in the future receive notices from third parties claiming that our products infringe upon third-party proprietary rights. One consequence of the recent economic downturn is that many companies have turned to their intellectual property portfolios as an alternative revenue source. This is particularly true of companies which no longer compete with us. Many of these companies have larger, more established intellectual property portfolios than ours. At any one time we generally have various pending claims from third parties that our products or operations infringe or misappropriate their intellectual property rights or that one or more of our patents are invalid. We will continue to respond to these claims in the course of our business operations. In the past, the settlement and disposition of these disputes has not had a material adverse impact on our business or financial condition, however this may not be the case in the future. Further, the litigation or settlement of these matters, regardless of the merit of the claims, could result in significant expense to us and divert the efforts of our technical and management personnel, whether or not we are successful. If we are unsuccessful, we could be required to expend significant resources to develop non-infringing technology or to obtain licenses to the technology that is the subject of the litigation. We may not be successful in such development, or such licenses may not be available on terms acceptable to us, if at all. Without such a license, we could be enjoined from future sales of the infringing product or products, which could adversely affect our revenues and operating results.

The use of open source software in our products, as well as those of our suppliers, manufacturers and customers, may expose us to additional risks and harm our intellectual property position.

Certain of the software and/or firmware that we use and distribute (as well as that of our suppliers, manufacturers and customers) may be, be derived from, or contain, so-called “open source” software that is generally made available to the public by its authors and/or other third parties. Such open source software is often made available under licenses which impose obligations in the event the software or derivative works thereof are distributed or re-distributed. These obligations may require

us to make source code for the derivative works available to the public, and/or license such derivative works under a particular type of license, rather than the forms of license customarily used to protect our own software products. While we believe we have complied with our obligations under the various applicable licenses for open source software, in the event that a court rules that these licenses are unenforceable, or in the event the copyright holder of any open source software were to successfully establish in court that we had not complied with the terms of a license for a particular work, we could be required to release the source code of that work to the public and/or stop distribution of that work. Additionally, open source licenses are subject to occasional revision. In the event future iterations of open source software are made available under a revised license, such license revisions may adversely affect our ability to use such future iterations.

Our intellectual property rights may not be adequately protected.

Our future depends in part upon our intellectual property, including trade secrets, know-how and continuing technological innovation. We currently hold numerous U.S. patents on products or processes and corresponding foreign patents and have applications for some patents currently pending. The steps taken by us to protect our intellectual property may not adequately prevent misappropriation or ensure that others will not develop competitive technologies or products. Other companies may be investigating or developing other technologies that are similar to our own. It is possible that patents may not be issued from any application pending or filed by us and, if patents do issue, the claims allowed may not be sufficiently broad to deter or prohibit others from marketing similar products. Any patents issued to us may be challenged, invalidated or circumvented. Further, the rights under our patents may not provide a competitive advantage to us. In addition, the laws of some territories in which our products are or may be developed, manufactured or sold, including Europe, Asia-Pacific or Latin America, may not protect our products and intellectual property rights to the same extent as the laws of the United States.

We face certain litigation risks that could harm our business.

We have had numerous lawsuits filed against us asserting various claims, including securities and ERISA class actions and stockholder derivative actions. The results of complex legal proceedings are difficult to predict. Moreover, many of the complaints filed against us do not specify the amount of damages that plaintiffs seek, and we therefore are unable to estimate the possible range of damages that might be incurred should these lawsuits be resolved against us. While we are unable to estimate the potential damages arising from such lawsuits, certain of them assert types of claims that, if resolved against us, could give rise to substantial damages. Thus, an unfavorable outcome or settlement of one or more of these lawsuits could have a material adverse effect on our financial position, liquidity and results of operations. Even if these lawsuits are not resolved against us, the uncertainty and expense associated with unresolved lawsuits could seriously harm our business, financial condition and reputation. Litigation can be costly, time-consuming and disruptive to normal business operations. The costs of defending these lawsuits, particularly the securities class actions and stockholder derivative actions, have been significant, will continue to be costly and may not be covered by our insurance policies. The defense of these lawsuits could also result in continued diversion of our management’s time and attention away from business operations, which could harm our business.

Recently enacted and proposed regulatory changes will cause us to incur increased costs.

We continue to evaluate our internal control systems in order to allow our management to report on, and our independent registered public accounting firm to attest to, our internal controls over financial reporting, as required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. As a result, we continue to incur substantial expenses. In addition, we continue to make acquisitions and we cannot assure that we will be able to properly integrate the internal controls processes of, or effectively implement internal controls processes for, the acquired assets or companies. See also “If we fail to remediate our current system of internal controls to an effective level, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results or prevent fraud. As a result, our business could be harmed and current and potential investors could lose confidence in our financial reporting, which could have a negative effect on the trading price of our debt and equity securities.”

If we fail to manage our exposure to worldwide financial and securities markets successfully, our operating results and financial statements could suffer.be materially impacted.

We are exposed to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and prices of marketable equity and fixed-income securities. We do not use derivative financial instruments for speculative or trading purposes. The primary objective of most of our investment activities is to preserve principal while at the same time maximizing yields without significantly increasing risk. To achieve this objective, a majority of our marketable investments are investment grade, liquid, short-term fixed-income securities and money market instruments denominated in U.S. dollars. A substantial portion of our net revenue, expense and capital purchasing activities are transacted in U.S. dollars. However, some of these activities are conducted in other currencies, primarily Canadian, European and Asian currencies. To protect against reductions

in value and the volatility of future cash flows caused by changes in foreign exchange rates, we may enter into foreign currency forward contracts or other hedging instruments. The contracts and other hedging instruments are intended to reduce, but do not eliminate, the impact of foreign currency exchange rate movements. Unhedged currency exposures may fluctuate in value and produce significant earnings and cash flow volatility.

As of March 31,September 30, 2006, we held investments in other public and private companies and had limited funds invested in private venture funds. Such investments represented approximately $12.3$10.9 million on our consolidated balance sheet at March 31,September 30, 2006. In addition to our investments in public companies, we have in the past made, and expect to continue to make, investments in privately held companies as well as

venture capital investments for strategic and commercial purposes. For example, we had a commitment to provide additional funding of up to $0.1 million to certain venture capital investment partnerships as of March 31, 2006. In recent quarters some of the private companies in which we held investments have ceased doing business and have either liquidated or are in bankruptcy proceedings. If the carrying value of our investments exceeds the fair value, and the decline in fair value is deemed to be other-than-temporary, we will be required to further write down the value of our investments, which could materially harm our results of operations or financial condition.

We may be subject to environmental liabilities which could increase our expenses and harm our operating results.

We are subject to various federal, state and foreign laws and regulations governing the environment, including those governing pollution and protection of human health and the environment and, recently, those restricting the presence of certain substances in electronic products and holding producers of those products financially responsible for the collection, treatment, recycling and disposal of certain products. Such laws and regulations have been passed in several jurisdictions in which we operate. Laws governing the environmental effects of electronic products have been passed in several European Union member countries, and similar laws are now pending in various jurisdictions within the United States. The European Union has enacted the Restriction of the Use of Certain Hazardous Substances in Electrical and Electronic Equipment, or RoHS, and the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment, or WEEE, directives. The RoHS directive prohibits the use of certain substances, including lead, mercury, cadmium and chromium, in covered products placed on the market after July 1, 2006. The WEEE directive obligates parties that place electrical and electronic equipment onto the market in the European Union to clearly mark the equipment, register with and report to European Union regulators regarding distribution of the equipment, and provide a mechanism to recall and properly dispose of the equipment. Each European Union member country has enacted, or is expected to soon enact, legislation clarifying what is and what is not covered by the WEEE directive in that country. However, there is still some uncertainty in certain European Union countries as to which party involved in the manufacture, distribution and sale of electronic equipment will be ultimately held responsible. If we are deemed to be a manufacturer of covered products, we may be required to register as a producer in certain European Union countries, and incur financial responsibility with respect to products sold within the European Union, including products of other manufacturers that have been replaced by our products. We may also incur substantial costs to change our manufacturing processes, redesign or reformulate, and obtain substitute components for, our products that are deemed covered products under the RoHS directive. We may also incur significant inventory write-downs if certain components held in inventory become unusable because they are not RoHS-compliant. If we fail to timely provide RoHS-compliant products, we will not be able to offer our products within European Union, and we may be subject to civil or criminal liabilities.

Similar legislation has been and may be enacted in other locations where we manufacture or sell our products. We will need to ensure that we comply with such laws and regulations as they are enacted, as well as all environmental laws and regulations, and as appropriate or required, that our component suppliers also timely comply with such laws and regulations. If we fail to timely comply with such laws, we could face sanctions for such noncompliance, and our customers further may refuse to purchase our products, which would have a materially adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

With respect to compliance with environmental laws and regulations in general, we have incurred and in the future could incur substantial costs for the cleanup of contaminated properties, either those we own or operate or to which we have sent wastes in the past, or to comply with such environmental laws and regulations; further, we could be subject to disruptions to our operations and logistics as a result of such clean-up or compliance obligations. In addition, if we were found to be in violation of these laws, we could be subject to governmental fines and liability for damages resulting from such violations. If we have to make significant capital expenditures to comply with environmental laws, or if we are subject to significant expenditures in connection with a violation of these laws, our financial condition or operating results could suffer.be adversely impacted.

We are exposed to risks related to our indemnification of third parties.

From time to time, in the normal course of business, we indemnify third parties with whom we enter into contractual

relationships. These contracts primarily relate to divestiture agreements, under which we may provide customary indemnifications to purchasers of our businesses or assets, certain real estate leases, under which we may be required to indemnify property owners, and certain agreements with our officers, directors and employees. We have agreed, under certain conditions, to hold these third parties harmless against specified losses, such as those arising from a breach of representations or covenants, third party claims that our products when used for their intended purposes infringe the intellectual property rights of others, environmental and other liabilities, claims arising from our use of our leased premises our or directors, officers and employees’ service with us. If such third parties become involved in legal disputes in which they contend that we allegedly have indemnification obligations, we may be subject to potential liability. It is not possible to determine the maximum potential amount of liability under any indemnification obligations, whether or not asserted, due to our limited history of prior indemnification claims and the unique facts and circumstances that are likely to be involved in each particular claim. Historically, payments made by us under these obligations have not been material.

We sold $475.0$475 million of senior convertible notes in 2003 and $425 million of senior convertible notes in 2006, which significantly decreased cash to debt ratio, and may cause our reported earnings per share to be more volatile because of the conversion contingency features of these notes. We may incur additional similar indebtedness, which could intensify these risks.

On October 31, 2003, weWe issued $475.0$475 million of indebtedness in October 2003 and $425 million of indebtedness in May and June, 2006 in the form of senior convertible notes. The issuance of these notes substantially increased our principal payment obligations and we may not have enough cash to repay the notes when due. The degree to which we are leveraged could materially and adversely affect our ability to successfully obtain financing for working capital, acquisitions or other purposes and could make us more vulnerable to industry downturns and competitive pressures. In addition, the holders of those notes are entitled to convert those notes into shares of our common stock or a combination of cash and shares of common stock under certain circumstances which would cause dilution to our existing stockholders and lower our reported per share earnings. If, and to the extent to which we do, incur new indebtedness, the above related risks may intensify.

Our rights plan and our ability to issue additional preferred stock could harm the rights of our common stockholders.

In February 2003, we amended and restated our Stockholder Rights Agreement and currently each share of our outstanding common stock is associated with one right. Each right entitles stockholders to purchase 1/100,000 share of our Series B Preferred Stock at an exercise price of $21.00.

The rights only become exercisable in certain limited circumstances following the tenth day after a person or group announces acquisition of or tender offers for 15% or more of our common stock. For a limited period of time following the announcement of any such acquisition or offer, the rights are redeemable by us at a price of $0.01 per right. If the rights are not redeemed, each right will then entitle the holder to purchase common stock having the value of twice the then-current exercise price. For a limited period of time after the exercisability of the rights, each right, at the discretion of our Board of Directors, may be exchanged for either 1/100,000 share of Series B Preferred Stock or one share of common stock per right. The rights expire on June 22, 2013.

Our Board of Directors has the authority to issue up to 499,999 shares of undesignated preferred stock and to determine the powers, preferences and rights and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions granted to or imposed upon any wholly unissued shares of undesignated preferred stock and to fix the number of shares constituting any series and the designation of such series, without the consent of our stockholders. The preferred stock could be issued with voting, liquidation, dividend and other rights superior to those of the holders of common stock.

The issuance of Series B Preferred Stock or any preferred stock subsequently issued by our Board of Directors, under some circumstances, could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control.

Some provisions contained in the rights plan, and in the equivalent rights plan that our subsidiary, JDS Uniphase Canada Ltd., has adopted with respect to our exchangeable shares, may have the effect of discouraging a third party from making an acquisition proposal for us and may thereby inhibit a change in control. For example, such provisions may deter tender offers for shares of common stock or exchangeable shares, which offers may be attractive to stockholders, or deter purchases of large blocks of common stock or exchangeable shares, thereby limiting the opportunity for stockholders to receive a premium for their shares of common stock or exchangeable shares over the then-prevailing market prices.

Some anti-takeover provisions contained in our charter and under Delaware laws could hinder a takeover attempt.

We are subject to the provisions of Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law prohibiting, under some circumstances, publicly-held Delaware corporations from engaging in business combinations with some stockholders for a specified period of time without the approval of the holders of substantially all of our outstanding voting stock. Such provisions

could delay or impede the removal of incumbent directors and could make more difficult a merger, tender offer or proxy contest involving us, even if such events could be beneficial, in the short-term, to the interests of the stockholders. In addition, such provisions could limit the price that some investors might be willing to pay in the future for shares of our common stock. Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws contain provisions relating to the limitations of liability and indemnification of our directors and officers, dividing our board of directors into three classes of directors serving three-year terms and providing that our stockholders can take action only at a duly called annual or special meeting of stockholders. These provisions also may have the effect of deterring hostile takeovers or delaying changes in control or management of us.
