	Intersil Corporation (“Intersil,” which may also be referred to as “we,” “us” or “our”) designs, develops, manufactures and markets high-performance analog, mixed-signal, and power management integrated circuits (“ICs”) for applications in the global industrial & infrastructure, consumer, and personal computing electronics markets.

	In our opinion, these interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments necessary to present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for all periods presented. We prepared these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X, using management estimates where necessary. We derived the December 28, 2012 consolidated balance sheet from our audited consolidated year-end financial statements. You should read this interim report in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 28, 2012.

	We utilize a 52/53 week fiscal year, ending on the nearest Friday to December 31. Fiscal year 2013 is a 53 week period with an extra week included in our second quarter. Quarterly or annual periods vary from exact calendar quarters or years.

	Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation.

	Note 2 — Investments and Fair Value Measurements

	Investments

	We classify bank time deposits as available for sale (“AFS”) and record them at fair value.

	We have no unrealized gains or losses on AFS investments recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income as of October 4, 2013 or December 28, 2012.

	We recognized a gain of $0.3 million and $0.9 million in our consolidated statements of operations during the quarter and three quarters ended October 4, 2013, respectively, related to the recovery of previously recognized losses on auction rate securities. There were no recognized gains or losses on investments included in our consolidated statements of operations during the quarter or three quarters ended September 28, 2012.

	Fair Value Measurements
	Due to their short duration, the carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, prepaid expenses, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities provide a reasonable estimate of fair value.
	For deferred compensation investments and bank time deposits, we generally rely upon the valuations as provided by the third party custodian of these assets or liabilities.
	We determine the fair value of our assets and liabilities utilizing three levels of inputs, focusing on the most observable level of inputs when available. Level 1 inputs use quoted prices in active markets which are unadjusted and accessible as of the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities. Level 2 uses quoted prices in markets that are not active or for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly. Level 3 uses prices or valuations that require inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement.
	We determine fair value on the following assets and liabilities using these input levels (in thousands):


		Fair value as of October 4, 2013 using:
		Total	Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1)	Significant other observable inputs (Level 2)
	Assets
	Other non-current assets:
	Deferred compensation investments	$ 11,354	$ 736	$ 10,618

	Total assets measured at fair value	$ 15,821	$ 342	$ 15,479

	There were no transfers into or out of Level 1 or Level 2 financial assets during the quarters or three quarters ended October 4, 2013 and September 28, 2012.

	Impairment charge (recorded in 2008)		-1,154,676
	Goodwill balance as of December 28, 2012 and October 4, 2013		$ 565,424

	We our annual test of impairment in our fourth quarter or if indicators of impairment exist, in interim periods. Factors we consider important that could trigger a goodwill impairment review include adverse legal factors, changes in our business climate, unanticipated competition, regulatory issues, loss of key personnel, significant changes or losses in business operations, weakness in our industry, downward revisions to forecasts for future periods, restructuring plans and declines in market capitalization below equity book value.
	During our third quarter of 2013, we reorganized from three reporting units – analog & mixed-signal, power management, and consumer – into four reporting units – specialty, mobile, precision and industrial & infrastructure. As a result of this reorganization, we reassigned our existing goodwill balances to the new reporting units utilizing a relative fair value allocation approach in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 350. With the assistance of a third-party appraiser, we performed a fair value analysis and allocated goodwill as of July 6, 2013 to the new reporting units. Based on our analysis, no impairment was indicated.
	Purchased Intangibles — Substantially all of our purchased intangibles consist of multiple elements of developed technology which have estimated useful lives of five years. Other purchased intangibles consist of other identifiable assets, primarily customer relationships with an estimated useful life of four to seven years (in thousands).

Restructuring	'

	Note 5 — Restructuring

	On July 24, 2013, we adopted a rebalancing plan (the “July 2013 plan”) to better align our operating expenses with strategic growth areas for the purpose of improving competitiveness and execution across the business. The July 2013 plan includes a reduction in our workforce of approximately 150 employees which is anticipated to be gradually offset by the addition of new hires in design and development over the next few quarters. We recorded restructuring and related costs of $8.7 million during the quarter ended October 4, 2013 related to the July 2013 plan. The July 2013 plan is expected to be substantially complete by the end of the first quarter of 2014.

	In October 2013, we adopted a restructuring plan to realign our internal fab with existing operations, (the “October 2013 Plan”). The October 2013 plan includes a reduction in workforce of 17 employees. We expect to record restructuring and related costs of $0.5 million during our fourth quarter of 2013 related to the October 2013 plan.

	On February 15, 2013, our Board of Directors approved a restructuring plan (the “February 2013 plan”) to prioritize our sales and development efforts, strengthen financial performance and improve cash flow. The February 2013 plan included a reduction of approximately 18% of our worldwide workforce. We recorded restructuring and related costs of $19.9 million related to the February 2013 plan during the three quarters ending October 4, 2013. The February 2013 restructuring plan was substantially complete at the end of the second quarter of 2013. No further expense related to these plans is anticipated.

	During 2012, we initiated restructuring plans to reorganize certain operations and reduce our global workforce and other operating costs. The 2012 restructuring plans were substantially completed at the end of the fourth quarter of 2012. No further expense related to these plans is anticipated.
	The amounts below relating to the restructuring are included in accrued restructuring on our consolidated balance sheets (in thousands):

Income Taxes	'
	Note 6 — Income Taxes

	We include income taxes for interim periods on the basis of an estimated annual effective tax rate. As of October 4, 2013, the estimated annual effective tax rate for 2013 was approximately 82%, which differs from the 35% statutory corporate tax rate primarily due to lower statutory tax rates applicable to our operations in many of the foreign jurisdictions in which we operate. The impact of this foreign rate differential will beneficially or adversely impact the effective tax rate dependent upon the financial results of those foreign operations. Furthermore, significant drivers of the estimated annual tax rate for 2013 include the benefit of the U.S. research & development credit, offset by the impact of certain permanently nondeductible items, such as stock based compensation associated with our cost sharing arrangement. The actual year to date 2013 tax provision also includes a $5.7 million discrete tax benefit associated with the reinstatement of the federal research tax credit retroactive to the beginning of 2012 as well as discrete tax charge of $3.0 million related to tax deficiencies in share based compensation. In addition, during the quarter ended October 4, 2013, we accrued a nondeductible $6.0 million provision related to a proposed settlement of an alleged export control violation.

	The table below summarizes activity in unrecognized tax benefits (“UTBs”) (in thousands):


	Beginning balance (includes $5,327 of interest and penalties as of December 28, 2012)	$ 112,900
	Increases related to prior year tax positions	10,546
	Settlements with tax authorities	-23,859
	Ending balance (includes $6,891 of interest and penalties as of October 4, 2013)	$ 99,587

	During the quarter ended October 4, 2013, we reached final settlement with the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) in connection with the 2008 – 2009 examination periods and decreased our UTBs in the amount of $23.9 million. The settlement primarily related to transfer pricing adjustments on the outbound pricing of tangible goods and our cost share arrangement with our Malaysia subsidiary. As a result of the settlement, we reduced our UTB balance by $23.9 million. This reduction included a $7.5 million cash payment to the IRS, consisting of $6.7 million of additional tax and $0.8 million of interest; a $15.9 million decrease in deferred tax assets related federal R&D tax credits, federal alternative minimum tax (“AMT”) tax credits, and federal net operating loss (“NOL”) tax attributes; and $0.5 million cash payments for amended returns filed with state authorities related to the IRS examination settlement. See the income tax section in the MD&A for further discussion of the settlement.
	The increases related to prior year tax positions were primarily due to an audit in Switzerland for tax years 2009-2010 and accrued interest on the UTBs. The increases related to prior year tax positions do not have a material impact on the effective tax rate. The remaining balance in UTBs is primarily related to transfer pricing and a provision related to an IRS examination for tax years 2010 – 2011.

	Within the next 12 months, we estimate that our UTB balance will be reduced by approximately $0.6 million related to the state tax impact of the settlement with the IRS for tax years 2005-2007, $1.8 million related to the state tax impact of the settlement with the IRS for tax years 2008- 2009, $3.0 million due to the expiration of the statute of limitation on certain items, and $5.7 million for the audit in Switzerland for tax years 2009-2010.

	Hypothetical Additional Paid in Capital (“APIC”) Pool—The hypothetical APIC pool represents the excess tax benefits related to share-based compensation that are available to absorb future tax deficiencies. If the amount of tax deficiencies is greater than the available hypothetical APIC pool, we record the excess as income tax expense in our consolidated statements of operations. During the quarter and three quarters ended October 4, 2013, we recognized $0.9 million and $3.0 million, respectively, of income tax expense resulting from tax deficiencies related to share-based compensation in our consolidated statements of operations. We did not recognize any tax expense resulting from tax deficiencies during the three quarters ended September 28, 2012.

	Note 7 — Long-Term Debt
	We have a five-year, $325.0 million revolving credit facility (the “Facility”) that matures on September 1, 2016 and is payable in full upon maturity. Under the Facility, $25.0 million is available for the issuance of standby letters of credit, $10.0 million is available as swing line loans and $50.0 million is available for multicurrency borrowings. Amounts repaid under the Facility may be reborrowed. We currently do not have any outstanding borrowings under the Facility. For the three quarters ended September 28, 2012, we paid $3.1 million in interest related to outstanding debt.

	Standby Letters of Credit — We issue standby letters of credit during the ordinary course of business through major financial institutions as required for certain regulatory matters. We had outstanding letters of credit totaling $1.4 million as of October 4, 2013, and $2.2 million as of December 28, 2012. The standby letters of credit are secured by pledged deposits.

	Note 12 — Legal Matters and Indemnifications

	Legal Matters —A portion of our activities are subject to export control regulations by the U.S. Department of State (DOS) under the U.S. Arms Export Control Act (AECA) and International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR 22 CFR 120-130). In September 2010, in response to a request for information, we disclosed to the Directorate of Defense Trade Controls (DDTC) information concerning export activities for the time frame 2005 through 2010. The DOS administers the DDTC authority under ITAR 22 CFR 120-130 to impose civil penalties and other administrative sanctions for violations, including debarment from engaging in the exporting of defense articles. In June of 2013, DDTC notified us of potential violations of the ITAR and that it is considering pursuing administrative proceedings under Part 128 of the ITAR. We are currently in the process of negotiating the terms of a Consent Agreement with the DTCC for purposes of settling this matter. The Consent Agreement would include, among other things, a penalty estimated to be between $6.0 million and $12.0 million, a portion of which would be suspended and eligible for credit based on qualified expenditures and investments made by the Company. The qualified expenditures are subject to the approval of the DTCC. During the quarter ended October 4, 2013, we recorded a charge of $6.0 million relating to this matter. The resolution of this matter will not result in debarment from engaging in the exporting of defense articles and will not impact our ability to transact business internationally.

	We are currently party to various other claims and legal proceedings. In our opinion, no material loss is anticipated from such other claims and proceedings

	Indemnifications — We incur indemnification obligations for intellectual property infringement claims related to our products. We accrue for known indemnification issues and estimate unidentified issues based on historical activity.
