Accounting Policies [Abstract] | ' |
Basis of Presentation | ' |
Basis of Presentation. The consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal, recurring adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the periods presented. |
Fiscal Year-End | ' |
Fiscal Year-End. The Company has a 52 or 53-week fiscal year ending on the last Friday in June. Fiscal year 2014 was comprised of 52 weeks and ended on June 27, 2014. Fiscal year 2013 and fiscal year 2012 were comprised of 52 and 53 weeks and ended on June 28, 2013 and June 29, 2012, respectively. Included in this report are the Company’s consolidated balance sheets as of June 27, 2014 and June 28, 2013, the consolidated statements of operations, statement of comprehensive (loss) income, statements of stockholders’ equity and statements of cash flows for the three fiscal years ended June 27, 2014 ("fiscal 2014"), June 28, 2013 ("fiscal 2013") and June 29, 2012 ("fiscal 2012"). |
Principles of Consolidation | ' |
Principles of Consolidation. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated. |
Estimates and Assumptions | ' |
Estimates and Assumptions. The preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses as presented in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions believed to be reasonable. Although these estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of current events and actions that may impact the Company in the future, actual results may be different from the estimates. The Company’s critical accounting policies are those that affect the Company’s financial statements materially and involve difficult, subjective or complex judgments by management and include revenue recognition, share-based compensation, restructuring reserve, inventory valuation, impairment of intangibles and long-lived assets, retirement benefit obligations and accounting for income taxes. |
Revenue Recognition | ' |
Revenue Recognition. The Company enters into sales contracts to deliver multiple products and/or services. A typical multiple-element arrangement includes product, customer support services and professional services. The Company also sells software products as part of certain multiple-element arrangements. In addition to selling multiple-element arrangements, the Company also sells certain products and services on a stand-alone basis. |
Product revenue. The Company recognizes revenue from sales of products, primarily hardware, when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, shipment has occurred and title has transferred, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. In arrangements where a formal acceptance of products or services is required by the customer, revenue is recognized upon meeting such acceptance criteria. |
Service revenue. Service revenue includes customer support services, primarily hardware maintenance services and professional services, which include consulting services and product integration services. Hardware maintenance services is deferred and recognized over the contractual period or as services are rendered to the customer. Professional services are offered under time and material or fixed fee-based contracts or as part of multiple-element arrangements. Professional services revenue is recognized as services are completed. |
Multiple-element arrangements. The Company's multiple-element arrangements include products, customer support services and/or professional services. Certain multiple-element arrangements include software products integrated with the hardware (“Hardware Appliance”) and the Company provides unspecified software updates and enhancements to the software through its service contracts. For arrangements which do not include Hardware Appliances, the Company recognizes revenue from the sale of products without regard to the completion of services as product sales are not dependent on services to be functional. |
The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") amended the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) as summarized in Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2009-14, Software (Topic 985): Certain Revenue Arrangements That Include Software Elements and ASU No. 2009-13, Revenue Recognition (Topic 605): Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements. ASU 2009-14 amends industry specific revenue accounting guidance for software and software related transactions to exclude from its scope tangible products containing software components and non-software components that function together to deliver the product's essential functionality. ASU 2009-13 amends the accounting for multiple-element arrangements to provide guidance on how the deliverables in an arrangement should be separated and eliminates the use of the residual method. ASU 2009-13 also requires an entity to allocate revenue using the relative selling price method. The standard establishes a hierarchy of evidence to determine the stand-alone selling price of a deliverable based on vendor-specific objective evidence ("VSOE"), third-party evidence ("TPE") and the best estimate of selling price ("BESP"). If VSOE is available, it would be used to determine the selling price of a deliverable. If VSOE is not available, the entity would determine whether TPE is available. If so, TPE must be used to determine the selling price. If TPE is not available, then the BESP would be used. |
The Company adopted the provisions of ASU 2009-13 and ASU 2009-14 on a prospective basis for new and materially modified arrangements originating after June 25, 2010. Pursuant to the guidance of ASU 2009-13, when a sales arrangement contains multiple elements, such as products, software, customer support services and/or professional services, the Company allocates revenue to each element based on the aforementioned selling price hierarchy. In multiple element arrangements where software is essential to the functionality of the products, revenue is allocated to each separate unit of accounting for each of the non-software deliverables and to the software deliverables as a group using the relative selling prices of each of the deliverables in the arrangement based on the aforementioned selling price hierarchy. If the arrangement contains more than one software deliverable, the arrangement consideration allocated to the software deliverables as a group is then recognized as one unit of accounting using the guidance for recognizing software revenue. |
The Company evaluates each deliverable in an arrangement to determine whether they represent separate units of accounting. The delivered item constitutes a separate unit of accounting when it has standalone value and there are no customer-negotiated refunds or return rights for the delivered elements. The Company's Hardware Appliances are sold on a stand-alone basis and customers are able to sell the Hardware Appliances to other buyers; accordingly, the Company has concluded that its Hardware Appliances have stand-alone value. Allocation of the consideration is determined at arrangement inception on the basis of each unit's relative selling price. The Company limits the amount of revenue recognition for delivered product elements to the amount that is not contingent on the future delivery of products or services, future performance obligations or subject to customer-specified return or refund privileges. |
The Company has not consistently established VSOE of fair value of any of its products or services. In addition, the Company has not established TPE as there are no similar or interchangeable competitor products or services in standalone sales to similarly situated customers. Therefore, revenue from these multiple-element arrangements is allocated based on the BESP. The objective of BESP is to determine the price at which the Company would transact a sale if a product or service were sold on a stand-alone basis. The Company determines BESP for product or service by considering multiple factors including, but not limited to, overall market conditions, including geographic or regional specific market factors, profit objectives and pricing practices. |
For sales contracts entered into prior to fiscal 2011, the Company recognizes revenue pursuant to the previous guidance for multiple-element arrangements. For arrangements which include Hardware Appliances or arrangements where the undelivered element is post contract customer support ("PCS"), the Company had not established VSOE of fair value of the element. Therefore, revenue and related cost of revenue from these arrangements have been deferred and recognized ratably over the PCS period as combined product and service revenue in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Revenue from those arrangements is reported as "Combined product and service" in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. |
Shipping and Handling Costs | ' |
Shipping and Handling Costs. Shipping and handling costs are classified as a component of cost of revenue. Customer payments of shipping and handling costs are recorded as revenue. |
Research and Development | ' |
Research and Development. Costs related to research, design and development of Company products are charged to research and development expense as incurred. Software development costs are required to be capitalized when a product’s technological feasibility has been established through the date the product is available for general release to customers. The Company has not capitalized any software development costs, as technological feasibility is generally not established until a working model is completed, at which time substantially all development is complete. |
Advertising | ' |
Advertising. Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Advertising expenses were immaterial in fiscal 2014, 2013 and 2012. |
Share-based Compensation | ' |
Share-Based Compensation. The Company uses the fair value method of accounting for share-based compensation arrangements. Share-based compensation arrangements currently include stock options granted, restricted shares issued (“RSAs”), restricted stock unit awards granted (“RSUs”), time-based RSUs ("executive time-based RSUs") and performance-based RSUs (“executive PSUs”) and purchases of common stock by the Company’s employees under the employee stock purchase plan ("ESPP"). The fair values of stock options and ESPP awards are estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The fair value of RSUs and PSUs are determined based on the fair value of the stock on the date of grant. The estimated fair value of stock options, RSUs and PSUs is expensed on a straight-line basis over the vesting term of the grant. Compensation expense for purchases under the ESPP is recognized based on the estimated fair value of the common stock during each offering period and the percentage of the purchase discount. |
Share-based compensation expense for stock options, RSUs, PSUs and ESPP awards has been reduced for estimated forfeitures so that compensation expense is based on options, RSUs, PSUs and ESPP awards that are ultimately expected to vest. The Company’s estimated annual forfeiture rates are based on its historical forfeiture experience. |
Restructuring Expense | ' |
Restructuring Expense. The Company recognizes restructuring expense resulting from significant reductions in headcount, excess manufacturing or administrative facilities that the Company plans to close, or consolidate and from other exit activities. In connection with exit activities, the Company records restructuring charges for employee termination costs, long-lived asset impairments, costs related to leased facilities abandoned or subleased and other exit-related costs. These charges are incurred pursuant to formal plans developed and approved by management. The recognition of restructuring expense requires management to make judgments and estimates regarding the nature, timing and amount of costs associated with the planned exit activity, including estimating sublease income and the fair value, less selling costs of property and equipment to be disposed of. Estimates of future liabilities may change, requiring the Company to record additional restructuring expense or to reduce the amount of liabilities previously recorded. At the end of each reporting period, the Company evaluates the remaining accrued balances to ensure their adequacy, that no excess accruals are retained and that the utilization of the provisions is for the intended purpose in accordance with developed exit plans. In the event circumstances change and the provision is no longer required, the provision is reversed. |
Foreign Currency Transactions | ' |
Foreign Currency Transactions. The functional currency of the Company's foreign subsidiaries is the U.S. dollar, except for its Japanese subsidiary. Accordingly, all monetary assets and liabilities of the foreign subsidiaries, except for the Japanese subsidiary, are re-measured into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates in effect at the reporting date. Nonmonetary assets and liabilities are translated at historical rates and revenue and expenses are translated at exchange rates in effect during each reporting period. The foreign currency gains and losses are included as a component of other income (expense), net in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. |
The Company uses the Japanese yen as the functional currency for its Japanese subsidiary. Assets and liabilities of the Japanese subsidiary with Japanese yen are translated to U.S. dollars using exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet dates. Revenue and expenses are translated at average exchange rates in effect during the period. Translation adjustments are included in stockholders' equity in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as a component of accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income. |
Comprehensive (Loss) Income | ' |
Comprehensive (Loss) Income. Comprehensive (loss) income consists of two components, net loss and other comprehensive (loss) income. Other comprehensive (loss) income refers to revenue, expenses, gains and losses that under generally accepted accounting principles are recorded as an element of shareholders’ equity but are excluded from net loss. The Company’s other comprehensive (loss) income consists of unrealized gains and losses on investments categorized as available-for-sale, unrecognized gain (loss) related to defined benefit pension plans, foreign currency translation adjustments from those subsidiaries not using the U.S. dollar as the functional currency and unrealized gains and losses on derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges. |
Fair Value of Financial Instruments | ' |
Fair Value of Financial Instruments. The Company measures its financial instruments in its consolidated financial statements at fair value. The Company maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs when developing fair value measurements. When available, the Company uses quoted market prices to measure fair value (Level 1). If market prices are not available, fair value measurement is based upon models that use primarily market-based or independently-sourced market parameters (Level 2). If market observable inputs for model-based valuation techniques are not available, the Company makes judgments about assumptions market participants would use in estimating the fair value of the financial instrument (Level 3). Carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and credit facility due within one year approximate their fair values due to the short-term nature and liquidity of these financial instruments. |
Derivative Instruments | ' |
Derivative Instruments. Derivatives that are not designated as hedges are adjusted to fair value through earnings. If the derivative is designated as a cash flow hedge, the effective portion of the contracts’ gains and losses resulting from changes in fair value is recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income. Amounts associated with cash flow hedges are reclassified and recognized in income when the forecasted transaction occurs or it becomes probable the forecasted transaction will not occur. The ineffective portion of the hedge is recognized in earnings immediately. |
As a result of our significant international operations, we are subject to risks associated with fluctuating exchange rates. We use derivative financial instruments, principally foreign currency exchange forward contracts, to attempt to minimize the impact of exchange rate movements on our subsidiaries’ and consolidated balance sheets and operating results. Factors that could have an impact on the effectiveness of our hedging program include the accuracy of forecasts and the volatility of foreign currency markets. These programs reduce, but do not entirely eliminate, the impact of currency exchange movements. The maturities of these instruments are generally less than one year. |
Cash and Cash Equivalents | ' |
Cash and Cash Equivalents. The Company classifies highly liquid investments with remaining contractual maturity at date of purchase of three months or less as cash equivalents. Cash equivalents consist primarily of money market funds. Due to the short-term nature and liquidity of these financial instruments, the carrying values of these assets approximate fair value. |
Restricted Cash | ' |
Restricted Cash. Short-term and long-term restricted cash consist primarily of cash deposits with banks. The cash deposits are pledged as collateral for various guarantees issued to cover rent on leased facilities and equipment, to government authorities for value-added tax (“VAT”) and other taxes and certain vendors to support payments in advance of delivery of goods and services. The deposits are classified as short-term or long-term depending on the nature of the period of guarantee. |
Accounts Receivable | ' |
Accounts Receivable. Accounts receivable are recorded at the invoiced amount and do not bear interest. Accounts receivable have been reduced by an estimated allowance for doubtful accounts, which is management’s best estimate of the amount of probable credit losses in existing accounts receivable. Among other factors, management determines the allowance based on customer specific experience and the aging of the receivables. |
Concentration of Credit Risk | ' |
Concentration of Credit Risk. Financial instruments that potentially expose the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and accounts receivable. The Company maintains cash and cash equivalents with high credit quality financial institutions. The Company derives a significant portion of its revenue from a limited number of individual customers spread globally. The Company also derives revenue from several large customers in different industries and geographies. If the financial condition or results of operations of any one of the large customers deteriorates substantially, the Company’s operating results could be adversely affected. To reduce credit risk, management performs ongoing credit evaluations of the financial condition of significant customers. The Company generally does not require collateral and maintains reserves for probable credit losses on customer accounts. |
Inventories | ' |
Inventories. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market, which approximates actual cost on a first-in, first-out basis. The Company assesses the value of inventory on a quarterly basis based upon estimates about future demand and actual usage. To the extent that the Company determines that it is holding excess or obsolete inventory, it writes down the value of its inventory to its net realizable value. Such write downs are reflected in cost of revenue. If the inventory value is written down to its net realizable value and subsequently there is an increased demand for the inventory at a higher value, the increased value of the inventory is not realized until the inventory is sold either as a component of a system or as separate inventory. |
In addition, the Company records a liability for firm, noncancelable and unconditional purchase commitments with contract manufacturers and suppliers for quantities in excess of future demand forecasts consistent with the Company's valuation of excess and obsolete inventory. |
The Company maintains a long-term service inventory of parts to support maintenance arrangements. The long-term service inventory is valued based on assumptions about product life cycles, historical usage, current production status and installed base and is periodically tested for impairment. The long-term service inventory is included in other assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. |
Sales and Value Added Taxes | ' |
Sales and Value Added Taxes. The Company collects various types of taxes from its customers that are assessed by governmental authorities, which are imposed on and concurrent with revenue-producing transactions. Such taxes are recorded on a net basis and are not included in revenue in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. |
Property and Equipment | ' |
Property and Equipment. Property and equipment is stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. Equipment and capitalized software are depreciated on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, generally two to seven years. Buildings are depreciated on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful life, generally 30 to 32 years. Leasehold improvements are amortized using the straight-line method over the shorter of the estimated useful lives of the respective assets, or the original lease term. |
Repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred and significant improvements and betterments that substantially enhance the life of an asset are capitalized. |
Impairment of Long-lived Assets | ' |
Impairment of Long-lived Assets. The Company reviews the carrying values of long-lived assets other than goodwill for indicators of impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of long-lived assets is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the assets to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the assets. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds their fair value. |
We review our goodwill for impairment annually in the fourth quarter of our fiscal year, or more frequently if impairment indicators arise. Impairment of goodwill is tested at the reporting unit level by comparing the reporting unit's carrying amount, including goodwill, to the fair value of the reporting unit. The fair values of the reporting units are estimated using an income approach that uses discounted cash flows. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, goodwill is considered impaired and a second step is performed to measure the amount of impairment loss. We have three reporting units for which we assess goodwill for impairment. |
Intangible Assets | ' |
Intangible Assets. Intangible assets with finite lives consist of customer relationships, customer backlog, purchased technology, trademarks and trade names acquired in business combinations. Intangible assets with finite lives are carried at cost, less accumulated amortization. Amortization is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets, generally two to five years, except for the customer backlog intangible asset, which is amortized as acceptance is received for a particular customer order, reflecting the use of the asset. Amortization expense is primarily recognized within cost of revenue and sales and marketing on the consolidated statement of operations. |
Warranty Reserve | ' |
Warranty Reserve. The warranty period for the Company’s products is generally one to three years. Estimated future warranty costs are expensed as a cost of revenue. The warranty accrual is based upon historical experience and is affected by actual product failure rates, material usage and service delivery costs incurred in correcting the product failure. The Company periodically assesses the adequacy of the warranty reserve and adjusts the amount as considered necessary. The short-term portion of the warranty reserve is included in other current liabilities and the long-term portion of the warranty reserve is recorded in non-current liabilities on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. |
Deferred Revenue and Deferred Cost of Revenue | ' |
Deferred Revenue and Deferred Cost of Revenue. Deferred revenue is recorded when products or services provided are invoiced prior to completion of the related performance obligations and is recognized as revenue ratably over the PCS period. We more broadly require advance and milestone payments for certain larger projects that would otherwise involve a significant lag between payments to our vendors and final acceptance of our products. These advance and milestone payments are recorded as deferred revenue and are recognized when all revenue recognition criteria have been met. Deferred revenue also includes revenue deferred for arrangements which include hardware appliances or arrangements where the undelivered element is PCS for arrangements that were entered into prior to the fiscal 2011 adoption of ASU 2009-13 and ASU 2009-14. |
Deferred cost of revenue primarily consists of product costs related to revenue deferred in accordance with the Company’s revenue recognition policy. Deferred revenue and associated deferred cost of revenue, expected to be realized within one year are classified as current liabilities and current assets, respectively, on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. |
Retirement Benefit Obligations | ' |
Retirement Benefit Obligations. The Company recognizes the overfunded or underfunded status of a defined benefit pension or postretirement plan as an asset or liability in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Changes in the funded status are recognized through accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income, a component of stockholder’s equity, in the year in which the changes occur. |
Income Taxes | ' |
Income Taxes. The Company computes income taxes using the asset and liability method, under which deferred income taxes are provided for temporary differences between financial reporting basis and tax basis of assets and liabilities and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. A valuation allowance is established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted statutory tax rates expected to be realized in the years in which those temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards are estimated to be recovered or settled. |
The Company is subject to audits and examinations of tax returns by tax authorities in various jurisdictions, including the Internal Revenue Service. The Company regularly assesses the likelihood of adverse outcomes resulting from these examinations to determine the adequacy of the provision for income taxes. |
Recently Issued Accounting Standards | ' |
Recently Issued Accounting Standards. |
Revenue from Contracts with Customers. In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition” and requires entities to recognize revenue in a way that depicts the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The amendments in ASU 2014-09 are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period, with early application not permitted. This guidance will be effective for the Company in fiscal 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the effects, if any, that the adoption of this guidance will have on the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows. |
Reporting of Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Component of an Entity. In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2014-08, “Reporting of Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity,” which provides a narrower definition of discontinued operations than under existing U.S. GAAP. ASU 2014-08 requires that only a disposal of a component of an entity, or a group of components of an entity, that represents a strategic shift that has, or will have, a major effect on the reporting entity’s operations and financial results should be reported in the financial statements as discontinued operations. ASU 2014-08 also provides guidance on the financial statement presentations and disclosures of discontinued operations. The amendments in ASU 2014-08 are effective for all disposals of components of an entity that occur within annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2014, and interim periods within annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2015, with early application permitted. This guidance will be effective during the Company's third quarter of fiscal 2016. The adoption of this standard will not have a significant effect on the Company's condensed consolidated statements of operations. |
