TABLE OF CONTENTS
| Item 2.02. | Results of Operations and Financial Condition. |
On October 29, 2009, Registrant (the “Company” or we) announced via news release the results for our fiscal 2010 second quarter ended September 30, 2009. The full text of the news release issued in connection with that announcement is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
In addition to disclosing financial results calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the Company’s press release contains non-GAAP financial measures that exclude the effects of share-based compensation as required by Accounting Standards Codification Topic Nos. 718 “Compensation - Stock Compensation” and 260 “Earnings Per Share” (“ASC 260”). In particular, the non-GAAP financial measures used by management and disclosed by the Company exclude the income statement effects of all forms of share-based compensation and the effects of ASC 260 upon the number of diluted shares used in calculating non-GAAP earnings per share. The non-GAAP financial measures also exclude ongoing amortization of acquisition-related intangibles and non-cash restructuring expenses. In addition, these non-GAAP measures utilize a tax rate that is based upon the income taxes we expect to actually pay relating to this quarter’s activities and results.
The Company develops an annual budget that includes all components of the income statement, exclusive of share-based compensation and ongoing amortization of acquisition-related intangibles and non-cash restructuring expenses. The accounting expense impact of share-based compensation or ongoing amortization of acquisition-related intangibles or non-cash restructuring expenses is not discussed or considered when assessing and determining the appropriate level of budgeted expenses for cost of sales, research and development (“R&D”), and selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) or when determining profitability for purposes of profit sharing and bonuses.
The Company uses share-based compensation programs to align employees’ actions and behaviors with stockholders’ interest and to be able to attract, motivate and retain the best employees in a competitive marketplace. Share-based compensation is only one element in employee compensation and is evaluated separately from the cost of other compensation programs. Specifically, we evaluate our share-based compensation programs from the perspective of the resulting dilution and other metrics, and not from the resulting expense to be recorded.
When we develop our annual budget, for taxes we consider only the taxes we expect to pay rather than taxes determined in accordance with GAAP which may fluctuate substantially over the next several years as we assess whether and when to make further releases of or accruals to the valuation allowance against our deferred tax asset. When we consider our profitability for purposes of profit sharing and bonuses, we do not consider taxes.
Management has determined that inclusion of these non-GAAP financial measures provides investors a meaningful presentation of the Company’s operating results in addition to the GAAP disclosure. As management uses these non-GAAP measures internally for strategic decision making, forecasting future results and evaluating the Company’s current performance, management believes these measures assist investors’ understanding of how management views the Company’s operating results. These measures enhance overall understanding of the Company’s current financial performance and better enable comparability to prior results. Management believes cost of sales excluding share-based compensation, and operating expenses such as SG&A and R&D excluding share-based compensation are useful information for investors because comparative differences in the corresponding GAAP measures for different periods may reflect factors such as a different stock price when equity awards were made and different equity award practices rather than changes in the operation of the business.
The Company has provided reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures in its press release. The non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by the Company should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, and the financial results calculated in accordance with GAAP and reconciliations to those financial statements should be carefully evaluated. The non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies.
The information contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Exchange Act, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
