NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Basis of Presentation
Adept Technology, Inc. (“Adept” or the “Company”) is a global, robotics-based automation supplier of industrial (fixed) and mobile robots to enable customers to improve speed, quality and efficiency of their production environments. The Company operates in two segments: Robotics and Services and Support. The information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” and the Financial Statements included in Items 7 and 8, respectively, in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2014 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on August 25, 2014.
The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), and the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The June 30, 2014, condensed consolidated balance sheet was derived from the audited financial statements as of that date, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements.
The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary to state fairly the Company’s financial position as of December 27, 2014, the results of operations and comprehensive income (loss) for the three and six months ended December 27, 2014 and December 28, 2013, and cash flows for the six months ended December 27, 2014 and December 28, 2013. The interim results for the six months ended December 27, 2014, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending June 30, 2015, or for any other future annual or interim period.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reported periods. The primary estimates underlying the Company’s financial statements include revenue recognition, product warranty, inventory valuation, allowance for doubtful accounts receivable, assumptions used in the fair value of the Company’s equity awards, useful lives of property and equipment and intangible assets, and contingent liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
There have been no material changes to the Company’s critical accounting policies during the six months ended December 27, 2014, as compared to the critical accounting policies described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2014.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company does not believe that the adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

3. Stock-Based Compensation
The Company has adopted equity incentive plans that provide for the grant to employees, consultants and directors of stock-based awards, including stock options, restricted shares, and restricted stock units of Adept common stock. Option awards granted have an exercise price equal to or greater than the market price of the Company’s stock on the date of grant and generally have ten-year contractual terms. The Company also has an employee stock purchase plan (“ESPP”) that allows employees to purchase a limited number of shares of its common stock at a discount of 15% of the market value at certain plan-defined dates that are established at six-month intervals. As of December 27, 2014, there were options to purchase approximately 337,000 shares of common stock available for grant under all option plans and approximately 281,000 shares available for issuance under the ESPP. Outstanding employee grants under the option plans generally vest, and are expensed, monthly in equal installments over a four year period (except for certain options which have a one year cliff vesting and then vest monthly), except for performance awards which vest when achievement of the performance criteria occurs, begin to be expensed when achievement of the performance criteria is probable, and are expensed over the service period or when the criteria is met. For performance awards, the Company estimates the service period based on its analysis of when the vesting criteria (typically some or all of the following components: share price, annual revenue amounts, earnings per share, net cash, and/or new customers) will occur. Restricted stock grants made under performance programs are subject to vesting quarterly over two years following the end of the relevant fiscal year of performance.
Table of Contents
Annual option grants of 6,000 shares to non-employee directors vest in full on the date of the annual meeting of stockholders following the meeting at which the director is elected and the annual grant is made, and the initial option grant of 10,000 shares to non-employee directors vests in the amount of 50% of the grant on the first annual meeting of stockholders following the initial appointment or election of the director and the remaining 50% vests at the second annual meeting of stockholders of the Company following the initial appointment or election of the director.
Employee option grants are subject to a change of control plan adopted by the Company in 2014 for equity awards that provides for acceleration and vesting in full of options in connection with a change of control transaction under certain circumstances. All stock compensation has been accounted for as an equity instrument, and the Company recognizes the fair value of stock-based compensation as an expense ratably over the service period of the individual equity instruments.
The Company recorded $ 0.3 million and $0.5 million of stock-based compensation expense for the three and six months ended December 27, 2014 and $0.6 million and $1.1 million for the three and six months ended December 28, 2013, respectively. The Company did not record an income-tax benefit for the stock compensation expense as a result of its net operating loss carry-forwards. The Company utilized the Black-Scholes option pricing model for estimating the fair value of the stock-based compensation. The weighted average grant-date fair values of the options granted to employees and non-employee directors under the equity incentive plans were $5.48 and $5.73 for the three and six months ended December 27, 2014 and $5.00 and $2.48 for the three and six months ended December 28, 2013, respectively. During the six months ended December 27, 2014 and December 28, 2013, 33,000 and 21,000 shares, respectively, were purchased under the ESPP with weighted average grant date fair values of $3.85 and $2.62. The weighted average grant-date fair values were calculated using the following assumptions:
Three Months Ended | Six Months Ended | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
December 27, 2014 | December 28, 2013 | December 27, 2014 | December 28, 2013 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Stock Option Plans | ESPP | Stock Option Plans | ESPP | Stock Option Plans | ESPP | Stock Option Plans | ESPP | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
Average risk free interest rate | 1.66 | % | .05 | % | 0.76 | % | 0.16 | % | 1.66 | % | .05 | % | 0.75 | % | 0.16 | % | ||||||||||||||||
Expected life (in years) | 5.07 | 0.49 | 5.99 | 0.49 | 4.96 | 0.49 | 5.09 | 0.49 | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
Expected volatility | 78 | % | 62 | % | 77 | % | 62 | % | 78 | % | 62 | % | 77 | % | 62 | % | ||||||||||||||||
Dividend yield | 0 | % | 0 | % | 0 | % | 0 | % | 0 | % | 0 | % | 0 | % | 0 | % |
The dividend yield of zero is based on the fact that the Company has never paid cash dividends on its common stock, is restricted from paying cash dividends by its credit facility, and has no present intention to pay cash dividends on its common stock. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of Adept’s common stock over the period commensurate with the expected life of the options. The risk-free interest rate is based on the observed and expected life of options and is indexed to the Treasury Constant Maturity rate. The expected life in years is based on the historic time to post-vesting exercise and forfeitures of the options. The Company has generally assumed an annualized forfeiture rate of 5% for each period for its options. The Company adjusts stock-based compensation expense if the actual forfeiture rate is different than estimated.
A summary of stock option activity under the option plans is presented below:

Table of Contents
In 2014, the Company granted restricted stock units (“RSUs”) for up to 112,500 shares of common stock to its Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”). The RSUs vest upon the earlier of the CEO’s separation from service or a change in control. The number of shares issuable upon vesting and settlement of the RSUs, if any, will be determined based on the Company’s stock price on the vesting date and, in the case of a separation from service, the extent to which certain performance criteria has been met. No compensation expense has been recognized on these RSUs as the fair value is not determinable.
As of December 27, 2014 , there was approximately $3.0 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock options and restricted stock awards granted and outstanding, the cost of which is expected to be recognized through fiscal 2018.

In 2013, the Company issued 8,000 shares of its Series A redeemable convertible preferred stock (the “redeemable convertible preferred stock”), par value $0.001 per share, at a price of $1,000 per share, subject to the terms of its Certificate of Designations, Preferences and Rights of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock for net proceeds of $7.6 million. Dividends on the redeemable convertible preferred stock accrued at the prime rate plus 3% up to a maximum amount of 4%. In February 2014, all of the outstanding redeemable convertible preferred stock plus accrued dividends through the date of conversion was converted into 1.7 million shares of common stock of the Company.
5. Bank Credit Facility
In 2014, the Company entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Agreement”) with a bank. Under the Agreement, the Company may borrow an amount not to exceed the lesser of (i) $10.0 million and (ii) $2.5 million plus 80% of eligible domestic and foreign subsidiary accounts receivable. The Agreement specifies the criteria for determining eligible accounts receivable and sets forth ongoing conditions precedent to the Company’s ability to borrow under the Agreement. Amounts borrowed under the Agreement may be repaid and reborrowed until its maturity on June 9, 2016, at which time all advances shall be immediately due and payable in full. Amounts borrowed under the Agreement shall bear interest at the prime rate plus 0.75%. Adept and certain of its subsidiaries have granted the bank a security interest in substantially all of their respective assets (excluding intellectual property) to secure the outstanding obligations under the Agreement.
The Agreement contains customary representations and warranties by the Company and customary affirmative and negative covenants, including, among other requirements, requirements as to permissible use of proceeds, restrictions on Adept’s ability to dispose of assets, make acquisitions, be acquired, undergo a change of control, incur indebtedness, grant liens, transfer funds to subsidiaries, make distributions to its stockholders, make investments, or enter into certain transactions with affiliates, subject to specified exceptions. Further, the Agreement contains a financial covenant that requires the Company to achieve certain minimum EBITDA levels.
The Agreement contains customary events of default that entitle the bank to accelerate Adept’s obligations and require repayment of the outstanding indebtedness, increase the applicable interest rate by an additional 4.00% per annum, and enforce the bank’s security interest against the collateral. These events of default include, among others, Adept’s breach of payment obligations or covenants, material misrepresentations, events constituting a material adverse change, and bankruptcy and insolvency defaults.
At December 27, 2014, the Company had no borrowings under the Agreement. As of December 27, 2014, the Company was not in compliance with certain covenants in the Agreement. The bank waived the non-compliance and amended the Agreement, to include among other changes, a reduction in the non-formula based borrowing to $1 million from $2.5 million and changes to the financial covenant.
6. Legal Proceedings
From time to time, the Company is party to various legal proceedings or claims, either asserted or unasserted, which arise in the ordinary course of its business. The Company has reviewed pending legal matters and believes that the resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, or results of operations.
Adept has in the past received communications from third parties asserting that it has infringed upon certain patents and other intellectual property rights of others, or seeking indemnification against alleged infringement. While it is not feasible to predict or determine the likelihood or outcome of any actual or potential actions from such assertions against the Company or other matters, the Company believes the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
During the three months ended December 27, 2014, the Company settled a legal claim made by a former employee and recorded a $260,000 charge, which includes legal expenses and is net of insurance reimbursement and amounts previously accrued, during the quarter.
7. Income Taxes
The Company provides for income taxes during interim reporting periods using the discrete period method. The Company also maintains a liability to cover the cost of additional tax exposure items pertaining to the filing of federal and state income tax returns, as well as filings in foreign jurisdictions. Each of these filing jurisdictions may audit the tax returns filed and propose adjustments. Adjustments may arise from a variety of factors, including different interpretations of statutes and regulations.
Table of Contents
The Company recorded a tax benefit of $0.1 million and $0.0 million for the three and six months ended December 27, 2014 and a tax provision of $0.1 million and $0.2 million for the three and six months ended December 28, 2013, respectively, primarily due to tax of certain foreign entities and a nominal amount of state minimum taxes.
The Company had gross unrecognized tax benefits of approximately $7.5 million and $7.4 million as of December 27, 2014 and June 30, 2014, respectively. Approximately $6.1 and $6.0 million of the unrecognized tax benefit as of each period has been offset by a full valuation allowance. If all of these unrecognized tax benefits were recognized, approximately $0.4 million, as of both December 27, 2014 and June 30, 2014, would benefit the income tax provision. In addition, the Company does not expect any material changes to the estimated amount of the liability associated with its uncertain tax positions within the next twelve months.
The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, California and various state and foreign tax jurisdictions in which it has a subsidiary or branch operation. The tax years 1999 to 2014 remain open to examination by the U.S. and state tax authorities, and the tax years 2010 to 2014 remain open to examination by the foreign tax authorities. Adept’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties accrued on any unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense. As of December 27, 2014, accrued interest and penalties associated with unrecognized tax benefits was not material.
8. Net Loss per Share
The computation of diluted net income (loss) per share attributable to common stockholders does not include the following unvested restricted shares and options to purchase shares as these common stock equivalents were anti-dilutive (in thousands):

9. Segment Information
The Company discloses certain information regarding operating segments, geographic areas of operations and major customers. This reporting is based upon the Company’s operating segments for which separate financial information is (i) available and (ii) evaluated regularly by the Chief Executive Officer who is the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company has two operating segments: Robotics and Services and Support. Segment operating income is comprised of income before unallocated research, development and engineering expenses, unallocated selling, general and administrative expenses, interest income, and other expenses. Management does not fully allocate research, development and engineering expenses and selling, general and administrative expenses when making capital spending and expense funding decisions or assessing segment performance. All goodwill is carried in the Robotics segment. Segment information for total assets and capital expenditures is not presented as such information is not used in measuring segment performance or allocating resources between segments. There is no inter-segment revenue recognized. Transfers of materials or labor between segments are recorded at cost. The operating results for the Company’s identified segments are presented as follows (in thousands):

US revenues were $3.1 million and $3.7 million for the three months ended December 27, 2014 and December 28, 2013, respectively, representing a decrease of 15%. US revenues were $5.5 million and $6.7 million for the six months ended December 27, 2014 and December 28, 2013, respectively, representing a decrease of 19%. The decrease in both periods was primarily due to a decrease in service revenue and lower sales to the medical market, offset to some extent by higher sales in the assembly market. The Company continues to implement its efforts to improve market share in the US. International revenues were $8.7 million and $10.9 million for the three months ended December 27, 2014 and December 28, 2013, respectively, representing a decrease of 21%. International revenues were $20.7 million and $21.4 million for the six months ended December 27, 2014 and December 28, 2013, respectively, representing a decrease of 3%. The decrease in both periods was primarily due to a decrease in the consumer goods and semiconductor markets. The decrease for the three months ended December 27, 2014 was also due to lower sales to the automotive and packaging markets, offset by sales to the consumer electronics market. On a year to date basis, sales to the automotive market were significantly higher in fiscal year 2015 compared to fiscal year 2014.
Gross margin
Gross margin was 42.9% and 46.9% for the three months ended December 27, 2014 and December 28, 2013, respectively. Gross margin was 43.9% and 46.5% for the six months ended December 27, 2014 and December 28, 2013, respectively. The decrease in gross margin for the three and six months was due to the lower sales which resulted in less absorption of manufacturing overhead.
We may experience significant fluctuations in our gross margin percentage from period to period due to changes in volume, changes in availability of components, changes in product configuration, increased price-based competition, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, changes in sales mix of products and/or changes in operating costs.
Operating Expenses
Total operating expenses were $7.3 million and $6.7 million for the three months ended December 27, 2014 and December 28, 2013, respectively, representing an increase of 10%. Total operating expenses were $13.7 million and $13.2 million for the six months ended December 27, 2014 and December 28, 2013, respectively, representing an increase of 4%. Average headcount during the three and six month period increased 13% and 10% compared to fiscal year 2014.
Research, Development and Engineering Expenses. Research, development and engineering (“R&D”) expenses were $1.9 million for each of the three months ended December 27, 2014 and December 28, 2013, respectively. R&D expenses were $3.4 million for each of the six months ended December 27, 2014 and December 28, 2013, respectively. R&D costs are expensed as incurred, with the exception of software development costs incurred subsequent to establishing technological feasibility and up to the general release of the software products that are capitalized. Technological feasibility is demonstrated by the completion of a working model or a detailed program design. Capitalized costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over either two or three years, whichever term is the estimated life of the software product.
Table of Contents
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses were $5.2 million and $4.8 million for the three months ended December 27, 2014 and December 28, 2013, respectively, representing an increase of 7%. SG&A expenses were $9.9 million and $9.7 million for the six months ended December 27, 2014 and December 28, 2013, respectively, representing an increase of 3%. The increase in SG&A expense for each period was principally the result of higher average headcount. SG&A expenses consist primarily of employee compensation, professional fees arising from legal, auditing and other consulting services, indirect costs for service, as well as tradeshow participation and other marketing costs.
Amortization. For each of the three and six months ended December 27, 2014 and December 28, 2013, amortization of other intangible assets expense was $0.1 million.
Foreign Currency Exchange Gain (loss)
Adept’s foreign subsidiaries’ balance sheet accounts are translated at current period ending exchange rates and statements of operations are translated at the average rate for the period. Translation gains and losses are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in stockholders’ equity. Foreign currency exchange gains (losses) were $(0.2) million and $0.2 million for the three months ended December 27, 2014 and December 28, 2013, respectively, and $(0.1) million and $0.1 million for the six months ended December 27, 2014 and December 28, 2013, respectively. As Adept conducts business on a global basis it is exposed to adverse or beneficial movements in foreign currency exchange rates. The dollar/euro and the dollar/yen markets currently present the largest exchange rate risk for Adept.
Provision for Income Taxes
Adept typically provides for income taxes during interim reporting periods based upon an estimate of our annual effective tax rate. We also maintain a liability to cover the cost of additional tax exposure items on the filing of federal and state income tax returns as well as filings in foreign jurisdictions. Each of these filing jurisdictions may audit the tax returns filed and propose adjustments. Adjustments arise from a variety of factors, including different interpretations of statutes and regulations. The liability method is used to account for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is expected to be realized on a more-likely-than-not basis. Deferred tax expense results from the change in the net deferred tax asset or liability between periods.
The Company recorded a tax benefit of $0.1 million and $0.0 million for the three and six months ended December 27, 2014, and a tax provision of $0.1 million and $0.2 million for the three and six months ended December 28, 2013, respectively, primarily due to tax of certain foreign entities and a nominal amount of state minimum taxes.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of December 27, 2014, cash and cash equivalents were $4.2 million, a decrease of $3.4 million from June 30, 2014. Cash used in operating activities for the six months ended December 27, 2014 was $4.2 million, representing net loss adjusted for non-cash depreciation, amortization and stock based compensation expenses, and the use of $2.6 million of cash for working capital purposes. Cash provided by financing activities was $0.3 million from proceeds received from employee equity programs.
Bank Line of Credit
In fiscal year 2014, the Company entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Agreement”) with a bank. Under the Agreement, the Company may borrow an amount not to exceed the lesser of (i) $10.0 million and (ii) $2.5 million plus 80% of eligible domestic and foreign subsidiary accounts receivable. The Agreement specifies the criteria for determining eligible accounts receivable and sets forth ongoing conditions precedent to the Company’s ability to borrow under the Agreement. Amounts borrowed under the Agreement may be repaid and reborrowed until its maturity on June 9, 2016, at which time all advances shall be immediately due and payable in full. Amounts borrowed under the Agreement shall bear interest at the prime rate plus 0.75%. Adept and certain of its subsidiaries have granted the bank a security interest in substantially all of their respective assets (excluding intellectual property) to secure the outstanding obligations under the Agreement.
The Agreement contains customary representations and warranties by the Company and customary affirmative and negative covenants, including, among other requirements, requirements as to permissible use of proceeds, restrictions on Adept’s ability to dispose of assets, make acquisitions, be acquired, undergo a change of control, incur indebtedness, grant liens, transfer funds to subsidiaries, make distributions to its stockholders, make investments, or enter into certain transactions with affiliates, subject to specified exceptions. Further, the Agreement contains a financial covenant that requires the Company to achieve certain minimum EBITDA levels.
The Agreement contains customary events of default that entitle the bank to accelerate Adept’s obligations and require repayment of the outstanding indebtedness, increase the applicable interest rate by an additional 4.00% per annum, and enforce the bank’s security interest against the collateral. These events of default include, among others, Adept’s breach of payment obligations or covenants, material misrepresentations, events constituting a material adverse change, and bankruptcy and insolvency defaults.

At December 27, 2014, the Company had no borrowings under the Agreement. As of December 27, 2014, the Company was not in compliance with certain covenants in the Agreement. The bank waived the non-compliance and amended the Agreement, to include among other changes, a reduction in the non-formula based borrowing to $1 million from $2.5 million and changes to the financial covenant.
Adept has no off balance sheet arrangements and believes that its current cash and cash equivalents, together with funds available pursuant to its credit facility, provide sufficient liquidity for operations in fiscal year 2015. Based on operating needs, strategic activities and other factors, we may further utilize the line of credit in the future or seek alternative credit or other financing in the future to pursue additional expansion opportunities or make other investments in our growth.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Interest rate sensitivity: There have been no significant changes to our market interest rate risk assessment as discussed in our 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Foreign currency exchange rate sensitivity: We transact our revenue primarily in U.S. dollars, Euros, and to a lesser extent, Chinese RMBs and Japanese Yen. The U.S. dollar is our reporting currency. The U.S. dollar is our functional currency except for our international subsidiaries in China, France and Germany, and Singapore where the Chinese Yuan, Euro, and Singapore dollar are the functional currencies, respectively.
As of December 27, 2014, we had not entered into foreign exchange forward contracts to hedge balance sheet exposures and inter-company balances against future movements in foreign exchange rates.
We maintain certain cash balances denominated in the Chinese Yuan, Euro, and Singapore dollar. If foreign exchange rates were to weaken against the U.S. dollar immediately and uniformly by 10% from the exchange rates at December 27, 2014, the fair value of these foreign currency amounts would decline by an amount which is not material.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We are committed to maintaining disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our periodic reports filed under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, we recognize that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and we necessarily are required to apply our judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures and implementing controls and procedures. Further, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all issues, if any, have been detected. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of controls to future periods are subject to risks. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures.
Based on management’s evaluation, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO), as of the end of the period covered by this report, our CEO and CFO have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act)), are effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes to our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended December 27, 2014 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Table of Contents
From time to time, the Company is party to various legal proceedings or claims, either asserted or unasserted, which arise in the ordinary course of its business. The Company has reviewed pending legal matters and believes that the resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, or results of operations.
Adept has in the past received communications from third parties asserting that it has infringed upon certain patents and other intellectual property rights of others, or seeking indemnification against alleged infringement. While it is not feasible to predict or determine the likelihood or outcome of any actual or potential actions from such assertions against the Company or other matters, the Company believes the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
During the three months ended December 27, 2014 the Company settled a legal claim made by a former employee and recorded a $260,000 charge, which includes legal expenses and is net of insurance reimbursement and amounts previously accrued, during the quarter.
There have been no material changes in the risk factors previously disclosed in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014.
