and investments measured at fair value | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
As of September 30, 2014 and March 31, 2014, all of the Company's investments are classified as available-for-sale securities. The carrying value of available-for-sale securities included in cash equivalents approximates fair value because of the short maturity of those instruments. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The Company did not incur any material realized or unrealized gains or losses in the three and six months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
There were no transfers between fair value measurement levels during the three and six months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
All financial assets and liabilities are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements. Fair value is estimated by applying the following hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into three levels and bases the categorization within the hierarchy upon the lowest level of input that is available and significant to the fair value measurement: | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Level 1 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The Company's Level 1 financial assets consist of Mutual Funds. The fair value of Level 1 financial instruments is measured based on the quoted market price of identical securities. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Level 2 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The Company's Level 2 financial assets and liabilities consist of Government Agency Securities, Commercial Paper, Corporate Bonds, and derivative foreign currency contracts. The fair value of Level 2 investment securities is determined based on other observable inputs, including multiple non-binding quotes from independent pricing services. Non-binding quotes are based on proprietary valuation models that are prepared by the independent pricing services and use algorithms based on inputs such as observable market data, quoted market prices for similar securities, issuer spreads, and internal assumptions of the broker. The Company corroborates the reasonableness of non-binding quotes received from the independent pricing services using a variety of techniques depending on the underlying instrument, including: (i) comparing them to actual experience gained from the purchases and maturities of investment securities, (ii) comparing them to internally developed cash flow models based on observable inputs, and (iii) monitoring changes in ratings of similar securities and the related impact on fair value. The fair value of Level 2 derivative foreign currency contracts is determined using pricing models that use observable market inputs. For more information regarding the Company's derivative assets and liabilities, refer to Note 10, Foreign Currency Derivatives, of the accompanying notes to condensed consolidated financial statements (unaudited) in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. |

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES | |
Unconditional Purchase Obligations | |
The Company purchases services and components from a variety of suppliers and manufacturers. During the normal course of business and to manage manufacturing operations and general and administrative activities, the Company may enter into firm, non-cancelable, and unconditional purchase obligations for which amounts are not recorded on the consolidated balance sheets. As of September 30, 2014, the Company had outstanding off-balance sheet third-party manufacturing, component purchase, and other general and administrative commitments of $163.9 million. | |
Other Guarantees and Obligations | |
In the ordinary course of business, the Company may provide indemnifications of varying scope and terms to customers, vendors, lessors, business partners, purchasers of assets or subsidiaries and other parties with respect to certain matters, including, but not limited to, losses arising out of the Company's breach of agreements or representations and warranties made by the Company, services to be provided by the Company, intellectual property infringement claims made by third parties or, with respect to the sale of assets of a subsidiary, matters related to the Company's conduct of business and tax matters prior to the sale. From time to time, the Company indemnifies customers against combinations of loss, expense, or liability arising from various triggering events relating to the sale and use of its products and services. In addition, the Company also provides protection to customers against claims related to undiscovered liabilities, additional product liability, or environmental obligations. In addition, the Company has entered into indemnification agreements with its directors and certain of its officers that will require the Company, among other things, to indemnify them against certain liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service as directors or officers of the Company. The Company maintains director and officer insurance, which may cover certain liabilities arising from its obligation to indemnify its directors and officers in certain circumstances. It is not possible to determine the aggregate maximum potential loss under these agreements due to the limited history of prior claims and the unique facts and circumstances involved in each particular claim. Such indemnification obligations might not be subject to maximum loss clauses. Historically, the Company has not incurred material costs as a result of obligations under these agreements and it has not accrued any liabilities related to such obligations in the condensed consolidated financial statements. | |
Claims and Litigation | |
On October 12, 2012, GN Netcom, Inc. ("GN") sued Plantronics, Inc. in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware, alleging violations of the Sherman Act, the Clayton Act, and Delaware common law. In its complaint, GN specifically alleges four causes of action: monopolization, attempted monopolization, concerted action in restraint of trade, and tortious interference with business relations. GN claims that the Company dominates the market for headsets sold into contact centers in the United States and that a critical channel for sales of headsets to contact centers is through a limited network of specialized independent distributors (“SIDs”). GN asserts that the Company attracts SIDs through exclusive distributor agreements and alleges that the use of these agreements is illegal. The Company denies each of the allegations in the complaint and is vigorously defending itself. Given the preliminary nature of the case, the Company is unable to estimate an amount or range of any reasonably possible losses resulting from these allegations. | |
In March 2014, the Company settled pending patent litigation with Aliph, Inc. and AliphCom, Inc. (collectively, “Aliph”). As part of this settlement, the Company granted to Aliph a non-exclusive, non-transferable license under the licensed patent and released Aliph from all claims in exchange for a settlement payment of $8.0 million, payable in four equal installments of $2.0 million, commencing in May 2014 and ending in January 2015. The Company will recognize the gain upon receipt of the settlement proceeds, net of immaterial legal contingency fees, within operating income. | |
In July 2014, the Company resolved an insurance coverage dispute with one of its insurance carriers. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company received $2.2 million, which was recognized within operating income in the second quarter of its fiscal year 2015. | |
In addition to the specific matters discussed above, the Company is involved in various legal proceedings arising in the normal course of conducting business. For such legal proceedings, where applicable, the Company has accrued an amount that reflects the aggregate liability deemed probable and estimable, but this amount is not material to the Company's financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. With respect to proceedings for which no accrual has been made, the Company is not able to estimate an amount or range of any reasonably possible additional losses because of the preliminary nature of many of these proceedings, the difficulty in ascertaining the applicable facts relating to many of these proceedings, the variable treatment of claims made in many of these proceedings, and the difficulty of predicting the settlement value of many of these proceedings. However, based upon the Company's historical experience, the resolution of these proceedings is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. The Company may incur substantial legal fees, which are expensed as incurred, in defending against these legal proceedings. |

The principal, together with accrued and unpaid interest, is due on the amended maturity date of May 9, 2017. The Company may prepay the loans and terminate the commitments in whole at any time, without premium or penalty, subject to reimbursement of certain costs in the case of LIBOR loans. | |
The Company's obligations under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by the Company's domestic subsidiaries, subject to certain exceptions. | |
The line of credit requires the Company to comply with a maximum ratio of funded debt to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") and a minimum EBITDA coverage ratio, in each case, at each fiscal quarter end and determined on a rolling four-quarter basis. In addition, the Company and its subsidiaries are required to maintain unrestricted cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities plus availability under the Credit Agreement at the end of each fiscal quarter of at least $200.0 million. | |
The line of credit contains affirmative covenants, including covenants regarding the payment of taxes and other liabilities, maintenance of insurance, reporting requirements and compliance with applicable laws and regulations. The line of credit also contains negative covenants, among other things, limiting, subject to certain monetary thresholds, the ability of the Company to incur debt, make capital expenditures, grant liens, make acquisitions, and make investments. The events of default under the line of credit include payment defaults, cross defaults with certain other indebtedness, breaches of covenants, judgment defaults, and bankruptcy and insolvency events involving the Company or any of its subsidiaries. The Company was in compliance with all covenants at September 30, 2014. |

COMMON STOCK REPURCHASES | |
From time to time, the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") has authorized programs under which the Company may repurchase shares of its common stock, depending on market conditions, in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions. Repurchased shares are held as treasury stock until they are retired or re-issued. Repurchases by the Company pursuant to Board-authorized programs during the six months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 are discussed below. As of September 30, 2014, there remained 513,459 shares authorized for repurchase under a repurchase program approved by the Board on February 20, 2014 and there were no remaining shares authorized under previously approved programs. | |
Open Market Repurchases | |
In the six months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company repurchased 419,041 shares and 607,033 shares, respectively, of its common stock in the open market for a total cost of $18.9 million and $27.3 million, respectively, and at an average price per share of $45.14 and $44.99, respectively. | |
In addition, the Company withheld shares valued at $6.2 million and $4.4 million in the six months ended September 30, 2014, and 2013, respectively, in satisfaction of employee tax withholding obligations upon the vesting of restricted stock granted under the Company's stock plans. The amounts withheld were equivalent to the employees' minimum statutory tax withholding requirements and are reflected as a financing activity within the Company's condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. These share withholdings have the effect of share repurchases by the Company as they reduce the number of shares that would have otherwise been issued in connection with the vesting of shares subject to the restricted stock grants and did not represent an expense to the Company. |

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract] | ' | ||||||||||||||||
FOREIGN CURRENCY DERIVATIVES | ' | ||||||||||||||||
FOREIGN CURRENCY DERIVATIVES | |||||||||||||||||
The Company's foreign currency derivatives consist primarily of foreign currency forward exchange contracts, option contracts, and cross-currency swaps. The derivatives expose the Company to credit risk to the extent the counterparties may be unable to meet the terms of the derivative instrument. The Company's maximum exposure to loss that it would incur due to credit risk if parties to derivative contracts failed completely to perform according to the terms of the contracts was equal to the carrying value of the Company's derivative assets as of September 30, 2014. The Company seeks to mitigate such risk by limiting its counterparties to large financial institutions. In addition, the Company monitors the potential risk of loss with any one counterparty resulting from this type of credit risk on an ongoing basis. | |||||||||||||||||
The Company enters into master netting arrangements with counterparties when possible to mitigate credit risk in derivative transactions. A master netting arrangement may allow each counterparty to net settle amounts owed between the Company and the counterparty as a result of multiple, separate derivative transactions. As of September 30, 2014, the Company has International Swaps and Derivatives Association (ISDA) agreements with three applicable banks and financial institutions which contain netting provisions. Plantronics has elected to present the fair value of derivative assets and liabilities on the Company's consolidated balance sheet on a gross basis even when derivative transactions are subject to master netting arrangements and may otherwise qualify for net presentation. For each counterparty, if netted, the Company would offset the asset and liability balances of all derivatives at the end of the reporting period. Derivatives not subject to master netting agreements are not eligible for net presentation. As of September 30, 2014 and March 31, 2014, no cash collateral had been received or pledged related to these derivative instruments. | |||||||||||||||||

INCOME TAXES | |
The Company and its subsidiaries are subject in taxation in the U.S. and in various foreign and state jurisdictions. The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended September 30, 2014 was 26.2% and 26.1% compared to 25.8% and 24.9% for the same period in the prior year. The effective tax rates differ from the statutory rate due primarily to the impact of foreign operations taxed at different statutory rates, tax credits, state taxes, and other factors. | |
Included in long-term income taxes payable in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2014 and March 31, 2014 were unrecognized tax benefits of $13.4 million and $12.6 million, respectively, which would favorably impact the effective tax rate in future periods if recognized. | |
The Company’s continuing practice is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The accrued interest related to unrecognized tax benefits was $1.9 million as of September 30, 2014 as compared to $1.7 million as of March 31, 2014. No penalties have been accrued. | |
The Company is currently under examination by the Internal Revenue Service for its 2010 tax year. The California Franchise Tax Board completed its examination of the Company's 2007 and 2008 tax years. The Company received a Notice of Proposed Assessment and responded by filing a protest letter. The amount of the proposed assessment is not material. Foreign income tax matters for material tax jurisdictions have been concluded for tax years prior to fiscal year 2011, except in the United Kingdom where tax matters have been concluded for tax years prior to fiscal year 2013. | |
The Company believes that an adequate provision has been made for any adjustments that may result from tax examinations; however, the outcome of such examinations cannot be predicted with certainty. If any issues addressed in the tax examinations are resolved in a manner inconsistent with the Company's expectations, the Company could be required to adjust its provision for income tax in the period such resolution occurs. The timing of any resolution and/or closure of tax examinations is not certain. |
