INTERSIL CORPORATION

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1—Basis of Presentation

Intersil Corporation (“Intersil”) designs, develops, manufactures and markets high-performance analog, mixed-signal and power 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 30, 2011 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 30, 2011.

We utilize a 52/53 week fiscal year, ending on the nearest Friday to December 31. The next 53 week period will be in the second quarter of our fiscal year 2013. Quarterly or annual periods vary from exact calendar quarters or years.

Past financial performance may not be indicative of future financial performance for any other interim period or for the full fiscal year. For example, sales in the Consumer and Personal Computing markets have historically experienced weaker demand in the first and second fiscal quarters and stronger demand in the third and fourth fiscal quarters. However, recent economic events, acquisitions and the cyclical nature of the industry in which we operate have had a greater impact on quarterly fluctuations in recent years.

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

Note 2—Investments

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

Our investments are classified as follows:

	As of June 29, 2012
	Amortized cost		Gross unrealized gains		Gross unrealized losses		Fair value		Maturity range (in years)
	(in millions)
Short-term Investments
Bank time deposits (AFS)	$	2.0	$	—	$	—	$	2.0	<1
Long-term Investments
Bank time deposits (AFS)	$	2.8	$	—	$	—	$	2.8	1-2

	As of December 30, 2011
	Amortized cost		Gross unrealized gains		Gross unrealized losses		Fair value		Maturity range (in years)
	(in millions)
Short-term Investments
Bank time deposits (AFS)	$	26.5	$	—	$	—	$	26.5	<1
Long-term Investments
Bank time deposits (AFS)	$	4.8	$	—	$	—	$	4.8	1-2

There were no recognized gains or losses on investments included in the statement of operations during the two quarters ended June 29, 2012 or July 1, 2011.

Note 3—Fair Value Measurements

We use the following methods and assumptions to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments:

• 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.

• Borrowings under our revolving credit facility as of June 29, 2012 and December 30, 2011 have variable interest rates that reflect currently available terms and conditions for similar debt. The carrying amount of these borrowings provides a reasonable estimate of fair value.

We determine fair value on the following assets and liabilities using these input levels (in millions):

	Fair value as of June 29, 2012 using:
	Total		Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level  1)		Significant other observable inputs (Level 2)
Assets
Short-term investments:
Bank time deposits	$	2.0	$	—	$	2.0
Prepaid expenses and other current assets:

Long-term investments:
Bank time deposits		2.8		—		2.8
Other non-current assets:
Deferred compensation investments		11.0		1.0		10.0
Total assets measured at fair value	$	16.4	$	1.0	$	15.4
Liabilities
Other accrued expenses:
Interest rate swap	$	2.7	$	—	$	2.7

Other non-current assets:
Deferred compensation investments		11.2		1.4		9.8
Total assets measured at fair value	$	43.6	$	1.4	$	42.2
Liabilities
Other accrued expenses:
Interest rate swap	$	0.6	$	—	$	0.6

For actively traded securities, bank time deposits, foreign exchange contracts and interest rate swaps, we generally rely upon the valuations as provided by the third party custodian of these assets or liabilities. There were no transfers into or out of Level 1 or Level 2 financial assets and liabilities during two quarters ended June 29, 2012 and July 1, 2011.

Note 4—Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

The fair value of our hedging instruments in the consolidated balance sheets was as follows (in millions):

		Fair value as of
	Balance sheet location	June 29, 2012		December 30, 2011
Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging Instruments
Asset Derivatives
Foreign exchange options	Prepaid expenses and other current assets	$	0.6	$	1.1
Derivatives Designated as Hedging Instruments
Liability Derivatives
Interest rate swap agreements	Other accrued expenses	$	2.7	$	0.6

The table below describes total open foreign exchange contracts as of June 29, 2012 and December 30, 2011 (all are options to sell foreign currencies):

Notional Amount of Open Foreign Currency Contracts	Euros		U.S. Dollars		Range of Maturities
	(€ and $ in millions)
June 29, 2012	€	13.0	$	16.5	1 – 6 months
December 30, 2011	€	15.0	$	20.2	1 – 6 months

Interest Rate Exposure Management—In connection with the extinguishment of our previous debt facility (see Note 9), we terminated our prior interest rate hedge transaction and settled the interest rate swap agreement in 2011 for $3.2 million. The unrealized portion of the loss continues to be reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (“OCI”) unless it becomes probable that the original forecasted transaction will not occur within the original specified hedge period. As of June 29, 2012, we have a loss of $1.5 million, net of tax, remaining in accumulated OCI. We will amortize this loss from accumulated OCI into earnings commensurate with the originally forecasted cash flows. The loss in OCI will be fully reclassified into earnings by the fourth quarter of 2013, the original maturity date of the terminated interest rate swap agreement.

During the third quarter of 2011, we entered into certain interest rate swap transactions with a notional value of $150.0 million to hedge a portion of the risk of changes in the benchmark interest rate of the one-month London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) related to our new outstanding revolving credit facility. Under the terms of the interest rate swaps, we will effectively convert $150.0 million of the balance on our revolving credit facility from a variable rate to a fixed rate through August 8, 2016.

As of June 29, 2012, we expect $0.9 million of losses associated with our cash flow hedges, net of tax, to be reclassified from accumulated OCI into earnings within the next twelve months.

Note 5—Inventories

Inventories are summarized below (in millions):

	June 29, 2012		December 30, 2011
Finished products	$	33.6	$	34.6
Work in process		48.2		58.6
Raw materials		3.7		4.7
Total inventories	$	85.5	$	97.9

Note 6—Goodwill and Purchased Intangibles

Goodwill—The following table summarizes changes in the net goodwill balance for our one reportable segment (in millions):

	June 29, 2012
Gross goodwill balance as of beginning of period	$	1,720.1
Accumulated impairment charge (recorded in 2008)		(1,154.7	)
Net goodwill balance as of beginning of period		565.4
Adjustments to goodwill		—
Goodwill balance as of end of period	$	565.4

We performed our annual test of impairment as of October 1, 2011, the first day of our fourth quarter of 2011, and determined the fair value of the reporting units was in excess of the carrying value. We will perform our next annual test of impairment in the fourth quarter of 2012. If we experience significant declines in our stock price, market capitalization or future expected cash flows, significant adverse changes in the business climate or slower growth rates, we may need to perform additional impairment analysis of our goodwill in future periods prior to our annual test in the fourth quarter. We can provide no assurance that the significant assumptions used in our analysis will not change substantially and any additional analysis could result in impairment charges.

10

Purchased Intangibles—Substantially all of our purchased intangibles consist of multiple elements of developed technology which have estimated useful lives of three to eleven years. Other purchased intangibles consist of other identifiable assets, primarily customer relationships with an estimated useful life of six years.

	June 29, 2012				December 30, 2011
	Gross carrying amount		Accumulated amortization		Gross carrying amount		Accumulated amortization

Total	$	166.6	$	68.8	$	179.5	$	67.3

We recorded amortization expense as follows (in millions):

	Quarter ended				Two quarters ended
By statement of operations line item	June 29, 2012		July 1, 2011		June 29, 2012		July 1, 2011
Amortization of purchased intangibles	$	7.2	$	6.7	$	14.4	$	13.6

Expected amortization expense remaining by year to the end of the current amortization schedule is the following (in millions):

To be recognized in:
Fiscal year 2012	$	13.8
Fiscal year 2013		25.6
Fiscal year 2014		23.8
Fiscal year 2015		16.8
Fiscal year 2016		9.0
Thereafter		8.8
Total expected amortization expense	$	97.8

There were no events that would trigger an impairment test of purchased intangibles during the periods presented herein.

Note 7—Restructuring

During 2012, we initiated restructuring plans to reorganize certain operations and reduce our global workforce and other operating costs. We recorded expenses of approximately $9.8 million for severance, lease exit, legal and professional costs during the two quarters ended June 29, 2012. All current restructuring plans will be completed by the fourth quarter of 2012. No further expense related to these plans is anticipated.

The amounts below relating to the restructuring are included in other accrued expenses (in millions).

Liability balance as of December 30, 2011	$	1.3
Costs incurred
Severance costs		9.0
Lease exit costs		0.8
Severance payments		(7.8	)
Liability balance as of June 29, 2012	$	3.3

11

Note 8—Income Taxes

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

Beginning balance (includes $12.0 million of interest and penalties as of December 30, 2011)	$	154.4
Increases related to prior year tax positions		12.2
Decreases related to settlements with tax authorities		(57.6	)
Ending balance (includes $7.6 million of interest and penalties as of June 29, 2012)	$	109.0

During the second quarter of 2012, we reached a settlement with the IRS Appeals Office on all items under protest for the 2005-2007 tax years. The settlement consisted of a cash payment in the amount of $46.6 million and tax asset utilization of $11.0 million. Under the terms of the settlement, we made an election which allows for cash repatriation of $162.3 million based on transfer pricing and other adjustments agreed upon with the IRS. The $12.2 million increase in UTBs related to prior year positions primarily related to this election.

We continue to be under IRS examination related to tax years 2008 and 2009. As the final resolution of the examination process remains uncertain for those years, we continue to provide for the uncertain tax positions based on our best estimate of the ultimate outcome.

Within the next 12 months, we estimate that our UTB balance will be reduced by approximately $3.7 million related to the state tax impact of the settlement with the IRS for tax years 2005-2007.

Note 9—Long-Term Debt

On September 1, 2011, we established a new five-year, $325.0 million revolving credit facility (the “Facility”). This Facility replaced our previous $300.0 million term-loan facility and $75.0 million revolving credit facility. The Facility matures on September 1, 2016 and is payable in full upon maturity. We may request to increase the Facility by up to $75.0 million. 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.

The Facility is secured by a first priority lien and security interest in (a) all of the equity interests and intercompany debt of our direct and indirect subsidiaries, except, in the case of foreign subsidiaries, to the extent that such pledge would be prohibited by applicable law or would result in adverse tax consequences, (b) all of our present and future tangible and intangible assets and our direct and indirect subsidiaries (other than immaterial subsidiaries and foreign subsidiaries) and (c) all proceeds and products of the property and assets described in clauses (a) and (b) above. Our obligations under the Facility are guaranteed by our direct and indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries (other than immaterial subsidiaries and foreign subsidiaries).

At our option, loans under the Facility will bear stated interest based on the Base Rate or Eurocurrency Rate, in each case plus the Applicable Rate (respectively, as defined in the Credit Agreement in Exhibit 10). The Base Rate will be, for any day, a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the highest of (a) 1/2 of 1.00% per annum above the Federal Funds Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement), (b) Bank of America’s prime rate and (c) the Eurodollar Rate for a term of one month plus 1.00%. Eurodollar borrowings may be for one, two, three or six months (or such period that is 12 months or less, requested by Intersil and consented to by all the Lenders) and will be at an annual rate equal to the period-applicable Eurodollar Rate plus the Applicable Rate. The Applicable Rate for all revolving loans is based on a pricing grid ranging from 0.75% to 1.75% per annum for Base Rate loans and 1.75% to 2.75% for Eurocurrency Rate loans based on Intersil’s Consolidated Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement).

During the quarter ended June 29, 2012, we obtained an amendment to the Facility which revised the requirements of certain debt covenants (See Exhibit 10). We incurred fees related to the amendment of approximately $0.4 million, which have been capitalized as part of the debt issuance costs.

Letters of Credit—We issue letters of credit during the ordinary course of business through major financial institutions as required by certain vendor contracts. We had outstanding letters of credit totaling $2.6 million as of June 29, 2012 and December 30, 2011. The standby letters of credit are secured by $2.8 million of long-term bank time deposits.

Note 10—Shareholders’ Equity

Dividends—In April 2012, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.12 per share of common stock.

You should read the following discussion in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, including the notes thereto. Except for historical information, the discussions in this section contain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from those discussed below.

Forward Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains statements relating to expected future results and business trends of Intersil Corporation (“Intersil”) that are based upon our current estimates, expectations, assumptions and projections about our industry, as well as upon certain views and beliefs held by management, that are “forward-looking statements” as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, as amended. Forward-looking statements generally can be identified by words such as “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “predicts,” “projects,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” and similar expressions. In addition, any statements that refer to expectations, projections, or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are “forward-looking statements.” These forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties, which could cause our actual results to differ materially from those reflected in the forward-looking statements. These factors include, but are not limited to:

• industry and global economic and market conditions, such as the cyclical nature of the semiconductor industry and the markets addressed by our and our customers’ products;

Note: Totals and percentages may not add or calculate precisely due to rounding. We have modified end market data below in the quarter(s) ended July 1, 2011 to conform to the presentation in the quarter(s) ended June 29, 2012, which we feel better reflects the different characteristics of our end markets. Historical data of revenues in each of these end markets is included with our Current Report on Form 8-K, furnished on April 25, 2012.

Revenue and Gross Profit

Revenue for the quarter ended June 29, 2012 decreased $46.1 million or 22.0% to $163.0 million from $209.1 million during the quarter ended July 1, 2011. The decrease in sales was broad-based in each of our end markets. Sales into the consumer market decreased 41.7% compared to the quarter ended July 1, 2011, while sales into the personal computing market decreased 23.1% and sales into the industrial and infrastructure market decreased 13.3%.

Revenues by end market were as follows ($ in millions):

	Quarter ended
	June 29, 2012					July 1, 2011
	Revenue		% of Revenue			Revenue		% of Revenue
Industrial & Infrastructure	$	95.8		58.8	%	$	110.5		52.8	%

In aggregate, a 20.8% decrease in unit shipments decreased net revenue from second quarter of 2011 levels by $43.5 million and average selling prices (“ASPs”) decreased 1.6%, decreasing revenues by $2.6 million. Declining sales prices at the product level have occurred within the semiconductor industry for much of its existence. While individual products generally experience ASP declines over time, we endeavor to continually introduce new products which typically enter the market at prices higher than existing products. Fluctuations in ASPs are expected to continue into the future.

Revenue for the two quarters ended June 29, 2012 decreased $88.9 million or 21.8% to $319.0 million from $407.9 million during the two quarters ended July 1, 2011. The decrease in sales was broad-based in each of our end markets. Sales into the consumer market decreased 35.3% compared to the two quarters ended July 1, 2011, while sales into the personal computing market decreased 23.7% and sales into the industrial and infrastructure market decreased 15.4%.

Revenues by end market were as follows ($ in millions):

	Two quarters ended
	June 29, 2012					July 1, 2011
	Revenue		% of Revenue			Revenue		% of Revenue
Industrial & Infrastructure	$	182.7		57.3	%	$	215.9		52.9	%
Personal Computing		79.4		24.9	%		104.1		25.5	%

Total	$	319.0		100.0	%	$	407.9		100.0	%

In aggregate, a 21.0% decrease in unit shipments decreased net revenue from year-to-date 2011 levels by $85.7 million and ASP’s decreased 1.0%, decreasing revenues by $3.2 million.

Geographically, year-to-date revenues were derived from the Asia/Pacific, North America and Europe regions as follows ($ in millions):

	Two quarters ended
	June 29, 2012					July 1, 2011
	Revenue		% of Revenue			Revenue		% of Revenue
Asia/Pacific	$	249.3		78.1	%	$	315.0		77.2	%
North America		47.2		14.8	%		58.5		14.3	%
Europe and other		22.5		7.1	%		34.4		8.5	%
Total	$	319.0		100	%	$	407.9		100	%

We anticipate that our revenue from Asia/Pacific region customers will continue to grow in percentage terms as that region leads in the manufacture of the finished goods in which our products are used. End market demand for those products is global and therefore dependent on aggregate global economic metrics and conditions such as personal incomes and business activity, and not necessarily on Asian and Pacific Rim regional economic factors.

We sell our products to customers in many countries including, in descending order by revenue dollars for our top ten countries, China (including Hong Kong), the United States, South Korea, Germany, Japan, Taiwan, Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia, and Mexico. Sales to customers in China (including Hong Kong) comprised approximately 55.7% of revenue, followed by the United States (14.0%) and South Korea (8.2%) during the two quarters ended June 29, 2012. Two distributors that support a wide range of customers around the world accounted for 14.7% and 13.7% of our revenues in the two quarters ended June 29, 2012. Two original design manufacturers accounted for 8.5% and 7.6% of our revenues for the two quarters ended June 29, 2012.

19

Cost of Revenue and Gross Profit

Cost of revenue consists primarily of purchased materials and services, labor, overhead and depreciation associated with manufacturing pertaining to products sold. During the quarter ended June 29, 2012, gross profit decreased $33.0 million or 27.1% to $88.8 million from $121.8 million during the quarter ended July 1, 2011. As a percentage of sales, gross margin was 54.5% during the quarter ended June 29, 2012 compared to 58.2% during the quarter ended July 1, 2011. The decrease in gross margin was primarily due to lower internal utilization and product sales mix changes at the product family level.

During the two quarters ended June 29, 2012, gross profit decreased $62.8 million or 26.5% to $174.0 million from $236.8 million during the two quarters ended July 1, 2011. As a percentage of sales, gross margin was 54.5% during the two quarters ended June 29, 2012 compared to 58.1% during the two quarters ended July 1, 2011. The decrease in gross margin was primarily due to lower internal utilization and product sales mix changes at the product family level.

Generally, our personal computing and consumer products have lower gross margins than our industrial and infrastructure products. We strive to improve gross margins from their present levels by emphasizing new high-margin products and cost saving opportunities in our manufacturing chain. However, recent declines in sales have affected our internal utilization and therefore our per unit cost, exerting significant downward pressure on margins.

Operating Costs and Expenses

Research and Development (“R&D”)

R&D expenses consist primarily of salaries and expenses of employees engaged in product/process research, design and development activities, as well as related subcontracting activities, prototype development, cost of design tools and technology license agreement expenses.

R&D expenses decreased $1.6 million or 3.3% to $46.2 million during the quarter ended June 29, 2012 from $47.8 million during the quarter ended July 1, 2011. We reduced our R&D spending primarily through lower incentive compensation due to lower operating income and cost reduction initiatives.

R&D expenses decreased $6.9 million or 7.1% to $90.6 million during the two quarters ended June 29, 2012 from $97.5 million during the two quarters ended July 1, 2011. We reduced our R&D spending primarily through lower incentive compensation due to lower operating income and cost reduction initiatives.

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

SG&A expenses consist primarily of salaries and expenses of employees engaged in selling and marketing our products as well as the salaries and expenses required to perform our human resources, finance, information systems, legal, executive and other administrative functions.

SG&A costs increased by $0.1 million or 0.4% to $36.4 million during the quarter ended June 29, 2012 from $36.2 million during the quarter ended July 1, 2011. The increase was driven primarily by increased legal and other professional fees, offset by cost reduction initiatives and lower incentive compensation due to lower operating income.

SG&A costs decreased by $0.6 million or 0.9% to $70.6 million during the two quarters ended June 29, 2012 from $71.2 million during the two quarters ended July 1, 2011. The decrease was driven by decreased sales incentives, compensation expense and other incentive compensation offset by increased legal and other professional fees.

Amortization of Purchased Intangible Assets

Amortization of purchased intangible assets increased $0.5 million or 7.2% to $7.2 million in the quarter ended June 29, 2012 from $6.7 million in the quarter ended July 1, 2011. Amortization of purchased intangible assets increased $0.8 million or 6.1% to $14.4 million in the two quarters ended June 29, 2012 from $13.6 million in the two quarters ended July 1, 2011. The increase related to additional amortization on in-process research and development projects acquired from Techwell, Inc. and completed during the quarter ended March 30, 2012.

20

Restructuring

Restructuring costs were $8.3 million in the quarter ended June 29, 2012 and $0.1 million in the quarter ended July 1, 2011. Restructuring costs were $9.8 million in the two quarters ended June 29, 2012 and $2.4 million in the two quarters ended July 1, 2011. The restructurings were part of our ongoing efforts to optimize operations. It included a workforce reduction of approximately 11% and an ongoing reduction in annual operating expenses of approximately $40.0 million.

Other Income and Expenses

Interest Income

Interest income decreased to $0.1 million during the quarter ended June 29, 2012 from $0.7 million during the quarter ended July 1, 2011. Interest income decreased to $0.3 million during the two quarters ended June 29, 2012 from $1.5 million during the two quarters ended July 1, 2011. The decrease was due primarily to the sale of our remaining auction rate securities in the fourth quarter of 2011.

Interest Expense and Fees

Interest expense and fees decreased to $1.8 million during the quarter ended June 29, 2012 from $4.2 million during the quarter ended July 1, 2011. Interest expense decreased to $3.8 million during the two quarters ended June 29, 2012 from $8.7 million during the two quarters ended July 1, 2011. The decrease was due to the replacement of our previous long-term debt agreement with a new revolving loan facility with a lower interest rate and repayments of our debt.

(Loss) Gain on Deferred Compensation Investments, Net

We have a liability for a non-qualified deferred compensation plan. We maintain a portfolio of approximately $11.0 million in mutual fund investments and corporate owned life insurance under the plan. Changes in the fair value of the asset are recorded as a gain or loss on deferred compensation investments and changes in the fair value of the liability are recorded as a component of compensation expense. In general, the compensation expense or benefit is substantially offset by the gains and losses on the investment. During the quarter ended June 29, 2012, we recorded a loss of $0.5 million on deferred compensation investments and a decrease in compensation expense of $0.5 million. During the two quarters ended June 29, 2012, we recorded a gain on deferred compensation investments of $0.2 million and a $0.3 million increase in compensation expense.

Income Tax Expense

Income tax expense for the quarter ended June 29, 2012 was $3.1 million compared with $5.7 million for the quarter ended July 1, 2011. The quarter ended June 29, 2012 included $8.6 million of income tax benefit offset by an $11.7 million discrete tax charge related to a tax election on transfer pricing in connection with the resolution of the IRS audit of tax years 2005-2007. Excluding discrete items, the effective tax rate for the quarter ended June 29, 2012 was higher than the same quarter last year due to a greater portion of income in higher tax jurisdictions and the expiration of the research and development credit.

Income tax expense for the two quarters ended June 29, 2012 was $3.1 million compared with $8.8 million for the two quarters ended July 1, 2011. The effective tax rate for the two quarters ended June 29, 2012, excluding discrete items, was higher than the prior year due to a greater portion of income in higher tax jurisdictions and the expiration of the research and development credit.

In determining net income, we estimate and exercise judgment in the determination of tax expense and tax liabilities and in assessing the recoverability of deferred tax assets that arise from temporary differences between the tax and financial statement recognition of assets and liabilities.

21

In the ordinary course of business, the ultimate tax outcome of many transactions and calculations is uncertain, as the calculation of tax liabilities involves the application of complex tax laws in the United States and other jurisdictions. We recognize liabilities for additional taxes that may be due on tax audit issues based on an estimate of the ultimate resolution of those issues. Although we believe the estimates are reasonable, the final outcome may be different than amounts we estimate. Such determinations could have a material impact on the income tax provision, effective tax rate and operating results in the period they occur. In addition, the effective tax rate reflected in our forward-looking statements is based on current enacted tax law. Significant changes in enacted tax law could materially affect our estimates.

Backlog

Our sales are made pursuant to purchase orders that are generally booked up to six months in advance of delivery. Our standard terms and conditions of sale provide that these orders may not be cancelled or rescheduled thirty days prior to the most current customer request date (“CRD”) for standard products and ninety days prior to the CRD for semi-custom and custom products. Backlog is influenced by several factors, including end market demand, pricing and customer order patterns in reaction to product lead times. Additionally, we believe backlog can decline faster than consumption rates in periods of weak end market demand since production lead times can be shorter. Conversely, we believe backlog can grow faster than consumption in periods of strong end market demand as production and delivery times increase and some customers may increase orders in excess of their current consumption to reduce their own risk of production disruptions.

Our six-month backlog was $127.4 million as of June 29, 2012 compared to $134.8 million as of December 30, 2011 and $174.8 million as of July 1, 2011. Although not always the case, we believe backlog can be an indicator of performance in the near future.

Business Outlook

In our second quarter 2012 earnings release, furnished as an exhibit to the Form 8-K we filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on July 25, 2012, we announced anticipated revenues for the third quarter of 2012 to be in the range of $156 million to $163 million. Based on this outlook, we stated that we expect third quarter 2012 earnings per diluted share to be between $0.02 and $0.04.

Contractual Obligations and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Our contractual obligations and off-balance sheet arrangements have not changed significantly from December 30, 2011. As of June 29, 2012, we had $24.4 million of open purchase orders for inventory from suppliers.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our capital requirements depend on a variety of factors, including but not limited to, the rate of increase or decrease in our existing business base; the success, timing and amount of investment required to bring new products to market; revenue growth or decline; and potential acquisitions. As of June 29, 2012, our total shareholders’ equity was $1,046.2 million and we had $314.1 million in cash and cash equivalents. We had $2.0 million in short-term investments and $2.8 million in long-term investments, consisting of bank time deposits, as of June 29, 2012. In addition, as of June 29, 2012, we had $150.0 million in long-term debt outstanding (see Note 9 in the accompanying consolidated financial statements).

As of June 29, 2012, approximately $291.0 million of our cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments was held by our foreign subsidiaries. In connection with the settlement of the IRS audit for tax years 2005-2007, based on the agreed upon transfer pricing adjustments, approximately $162 million of cash in our foreign subsidiaries will be repatriated in our third quarter of 2012 without further taxation. The remaining funds would be subject to federal and state taxation at approximately 37.5% upon repatriation, net of any foreign tax credits that might be available. We currently do not intend nor foresee a need to repatriate any additional funds. As of June 29, 2012, all of our long-term investments were held domestically.

22

We expect existing domestic cash and cash equivalents and cash flows from operations to continue to be sufficient to fund our domestic operating activities and cash commitments for investing and financing activities, such as regular quarterly dividends, debt repayment schedules, and material capital expenditures, for at least the next 12 months and thereafter for the foreseeable future. In addition, we expect existing foreign cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, and cash flows from operations to continue to be sufficient to fund our foreign operating activities and cash commitments for investing activities, such as material capital expenditures, for at least the next 12 months and thereafter for the foreseeable future.

Our primary sources and uses of cash during the two quarters ended June 29, 2012 and July 1, 2011 were as follows (in millions):

	Two quarters ended
	June 29, 2012			July 1, 2011
Sources (Uses) of Cash

Operating activities, including working capital changes	$	(10.2	)	$	80.2
Cash flows from exercise of stock options and purchases under the employee stock purchase plan, including tax benefits and payments on vesting of awards		1.1			1.3
		(9.2	)		81.5
Other Uses of Cash
Capital expenditures, net of sale proceeds		(4.6	)		(5.3	)

Cash/Investment Management Activities
Decrease (increase) in investments and foreign exchange effects		26.0			(17.6	)
Net (decrease) increase in cash and cash equivalents	$	(69.6	)	$	7.4

For the two quarters ended June 29, 2012, our operational cash flows were negative $10.2 million compared to $80.2 million in the two quarters ended July 1, 2011. This decrease of $90.4 million was primarily due to tax payments of $46.6 million to the IRS for tax years 2005-2007, lower operating income and other changes in working capital. We repaid $50.0 million of our long-term debt. We used approximately $4.6 million for capital expenditures and $31.4 million to pay shareholder dividends. Investment balances decreased by $26.0 million in the two quarters ended June 29, 2012, primarily due to the maturity of short term investments. The resulting decrease in cash was $69.6 million overall.

We strive to continually improve the cash flows from our existing business activities and return a substantial portion of that cash flow to shareholders. We continue to maintain and improve our existing business performance with necessary capital expenditures and acquisitions that may further improve our business and return on investment. Cash, stock, debt or a combination thereof may be issued to fund additional acquisitions to grow our business.

Our cash, cash equivalents and investments give us the flexibility to return free cash flow to our shareholders in the form of dividends, while also pursuing business improvement opportunities for our future.

Non-cash Working Capital

Trade accounts receivable, less valuation allowances, decreased by $2.0 million or 3.1% to $62.9 million as of June 29, 2012 from $64.9 million as of December 30, 2011. This decrease primarily reflects the decrease in sales and increased reserves related to changes in distributor agreements.

Our net inventories decreased by $12.4 million or 12.7% to $85.5 million as of June 29, 2012 from $97.9 million as of December 30, 2011. Inventories decreased from year end as a result of decreased production. While we maintain stock of certain high volume products to ensure our lead times remain within customer expectations, we lowered overall inventory balances in response to decreased backlog and sales volumes.

23

Capital Expenditures

Capital expenditures, net of sales proceeds, were $4.6 million for the two quarters ended June 29, 2012 and $5.3 million for the two quarters ended July 1, 2011. Capital expenditures have been focused primarily on electronic equipment, mostly for R&D, the expansion of test capacity to support continuing unit volume growth and IT related equipment. We anticipate capital expenditures will remain at current levels in the near term.

Cash flow from exercises and vesting of stock awards and our Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”)

Cash flows from stock plans (including exercises of stock options (“Options”), tax payments on vesting restricted and deferred stock awards (“Awards”) and sales under our ESPP) were $1.1 million in the two quarters ended June 29, 2012, compared to $1.3 million received in the two quarters ended July 1, 2011.

We have changed the mix of new share-based incentive grants to a larger proportion of Awards than Options. Awards do not yield cash proceeds from an exercise event as do Options, but may result in tax payments on shares withheld. Additionally, exercises are decisions of grantees and are influenced by the level of our stock price and by other considerations of grantees. The recent decline in stock price has resulted in many of our options being “underwater” with exercise prices in excess of the current stock price. While the level of cash inflow from stock plans is difficult to forecast or control, we believe it will remain a secondary source of cash.

Dividends on Common Stock

In April 2012, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.12 per share of common stock. We paid dividends of $15.3 million on May 25, 2012 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on May 15, 2012. In July 2012, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.12 per share of common stock. The dividend will be paid on August 24, 2012 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on August 14, 2012.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

Global economic conditions pose a risk to the overall economy as consumers and businesses may defer purchases in response to the uncertainty around tighter credit and negative financial news. These conditions could reduce product demand and affect other related matters. Demand could be different from our expectations due to many factors including changes in business and economic conditions, conditions in the credit market that could affect consumer confidence, customer acceptance of our products, changes in customer order patterns including order cancellations and changes in the level of inventory held by vendors.

Credit markets have tightened as a result of the recent financial crises, resulting in lower liquidity in many financial markets and excess volatility in fixed income, credit and equity markets. We have experienced a number of resulting effects, including product delays due to effects experienced by key suppliers; reduced orders and payments as customers are affected by tighter credit markets and/or insolvency; decreased investing and financing options in a tighter market; increased expenses; increased impairments resulting from lower orders and sales as customers experience difficulties obtaining financing; and volatility and extreme changes in the earnings and fair value of our investments.

Moreover, in the normal course of doing business, we are exposed to the risks associated with foreign currency exchange rates and changes in interest rates. We employ established policies and procedures governing the use of financial instruments, entered into for purposes other than trading purposes, to manage our exposure to these risks.

Our cash equivalents and investments are subject to three market risks: interest rate risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. Our investments are primarily held in money market funds and bank time deposits.

For further discussion of the risk related to foreign currency exchange rates and market risk, see our 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 24, 2012.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

(a)Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer, or CEO, and Chief Financial Officer, or CFO, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act) as of June 29, 2012. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, our management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and our management necessarily applied its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, our officers concluded that, as of June 29, 2012, our disclosure controls and procedures were (1) designed to ensure that material information relating to us, including our consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to our CEO and CFO by others within those entities, particularly during the period in which this report was being prepared and (2) effective to ensure that all material information required to be disclosed by Intersil in the reports that it files or furnishes under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and that all such material information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
