NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets of Fairchild Semiconductor
International, Inc. (the "Company") as of August 29, 1999 and May 30, 1999 and
the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Cash Flows for the
three-month periods ended August 29, 1999 and August 30, 1998 were prepared by
the Company. In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed
consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only
normal recurring items) necessary to present fairly the financial position and
results of operations of the Company. Interim results of operations are not
necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. This
report should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements
and notes thereto included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the
fiscal year ended May 30, 1999.
Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to
their current presentation.

NOTE 3 - COMPUTATION OF NET LOSS PER SHARE
Basic net loss per common share is computed using the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss
per common share is computed using the weighted average number of common and
dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding during the period. Dilutive common
equivalent shares consist of stock options, however, due to the Company's net
losses for the three months ended August 29, 1999 and August 30, 1998, the
addition of these common stock equivalents would have been anti-dilutive and
accordingly they have been excluded from the calculation for each respective
period. The Company had 7.0 million and 3.5 million potentially dilutive shares
outstanding under its Stock Option Plan as of August 29, 1999 and August 30,
1998, respectively. The net loss used in computing net loss per common share has
been increased by dividends accrued during each respective period for preferred
stock, resulting in an increase to the net loss applicable to common
stockholders.
NOTE 4 - INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING
On August 9, 1999, the Company completed an initial public offering
("IPO") of its Class A Common Stock and sold an aggregate of 20,000,000 shares
at a price of $18.50 per share. The underwriting discount was $1.11 per share.
The net proceeds after the underwriting discount and other IPO expenses were
approximately $345.0 million. In addition, National Semiconductor Corporation,
one of the Company's principal stockholders, sold 3,000,000 additional shares
pursuant to the underwriters' overallotment option. The Company received no
proceeds from this sale, which closed on August 12, 1999. Concurrent with the
IPO, all of the shares of the Company's previously authorized 12% Series A
Cumulative Compounding Preferred Stock were converted into shares of the
Company's Class A Common
6
7
Stock. Each preferred stockholder received 75.714571 shares of Class A Common
Stock per share of preferred stock, reflecting the $1,000 liquidation value of
the preferred stock, plus accumulated unpaid dividends to the date of
conversion, converted into common stock on the basis of $17.39 per share. As a
result of the conversion, 70,000 shares of preferred stock were converted into
5,300,020 shares of common stock.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS.
READERS ARE CAUTIONED NOT TO PLACE UNDUE RELIANCE ON FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
IN THIS REPORT. SEE "OUTLOOK AND BUSINESS RISKS" BELOW.
OVERVIEW
Fairchild Semiconductor International, Inc. ("Fairchild
International"), through its wholly-owned subsidiary Fairchild Semiconductor
Corporation (collectively, the "Company"), is a leading designer, manufacturer
and supplier of high-performance logic, non-volatile memory, discrete power and
signal technology and analog and mixed signal semiconductors, serving the
telecommunications, consumer, industrial, personal systems and automotive
markets.
The Company is changing its fiscal year end to the last Sunday in
December from the last Sunday in May. This discussion covers the first quarter
of the transition period from May 31, 1999 to December 26, 1999. Throughout this
discussion, we refer to the first quarter of the transition period as the first
quarter of "stub year 1999." The comparable quarter a year ago is referred to as
the first quarter of "fiscal 1999." The Company will file an annual report on
Form 10-K for the transition period from May 31, 1999 to December 26, 1999. On
August 9, 1999, the Company consummated an initial public offering ("IPO") of
its Class A Common Stock. Proceeds received from the offering of approximately
$345.0 million, net of underwriting and other related fees, were used to retire
a portion of the Company's debt.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The Company incurred a net loss of $8.0 million, or $0.15 per fully
diluted share of common stock, in the first quarter of stub year 1999, compared
to a net loss of $16.2 million, or $0.29 per fully diluted share of common
stock, in the first quarter of fiscal 1999. Excluding unusual charges and
amortization of acquisition-related intangibles of $15.5 million and $8.5
million, respectively, in the first quarter of stub year 1999, and $4.5 million
and $0.8 million, respectively, in the first quarter of fiscal 1999, net of tax
effect, the Company had adjusted net income of $16.0 million for the first
quarter of stub year 1999, or $0.21 per fully diluted share of common stock,
compared to an adjusted net loss of $12.0 million, or $0.18 per fully diluted
share of common stock in the first quarter of fiscal 1999. Unusual charges in
the first quarter of stub year 1999 included IPO-related charges of $8.3
million, recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A"), for
the forgiveness of certain loans made to the Company's management investors for
payment of individual income tax liabilities resulting
8
9
from their ownership of the Company's common stock, and $7.2 million, recorded
in interest expense, for the write-off of deferred financing fees associated
with the debt repaid with the proceeds from the IPO. Unusual charges in the
first quarter of fiscal 1999 were due to restructuring charges as a result of a
workforce reduction. Operating income was $25.1 million in the first quarter of
stub year 1999, compared to an operating loss of $5.9 million in the first
quarter of fiscal 1999. Excluding unusual charges, operating income was $33.4
million in the first quarter of stub year 1999, compared to an operating loss of
$1.4 million in the first quarter of fiscal 1999. The increase in operating
income is due to the acquisition of the Power Device Products Group ("Power
Devices") from Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. ("Samsung Electronics") and higher
revenues and gross profits due to improved business conditions, resulting in
higher factory utilization in the first quarter of stub year 1999 as compared to
the first quarter of fiscal 1999.
All operating segments except Analog reported improved operating
results in the first quarter of stub year 1999 as compared to the first quarter
of fiscal 1999. Analog had an operating loss of $2.6 million in the first
quarter of stub year 1999 as compared to a loss of $0.1 million in the first
quarter of fiscal 1999. The increase in Analog's operating loss was due to an
unfavorable sales mix and increased inventory valuation reserves in anticipation
of the closure of the Mountain View, California wafer fab in the second quarter
of stub year 1999. Discrete and Logic operating income was $2.6 million and $9.1
million, respectively, in the first quarter of stub year 1999 as compared to
$1.9 million and $3.0 million, respectively, in the first quarter of fiscal
1999. The increases in Discrete and Logic operating income were due to higher
revenues and improved gross profits due to improved factory utilization. Memory
had an operating loss of $0.4 million in the first quarter of stub year 1999 as
compared to a loss of $6.2 million in the first quarter of fiscal 1999. The
decrease in the Memory operating loss was due to the benefit from the
implementation of the Memory restructuring plan in the fourth quarter of fiscal
1999.
Excluding depreciation and amortization of $35.5 million and $23.3
million in the first quarter of stub year 1999 and fiscal 1999, respectively,
and unusual charges, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and
amortization ("EBITDA") were $68.9 million in the first quarter of stub year
1999 compared to $21.9 million in the first quarter of fiscal 1999. EBITDA is
presented because the Company believes that it is a widely accepted financial
indicator of an entity's ability to incur and service debt. EBITDA should not be
considered as an alternative to net income, operating income, or other
consolidated operations and cash flow data prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles, as an indicator of the operating performance of
the Company, or as an alternative to cash flows as a measure of liquidity.
REVENUES
The Company's revenues consist of trade sales to unaffiliated
customers (89.8% and 89.3% of total revenues in the first quarters of stub year
1999 and fiscal 1999, respectively) and revenues from contract manufacturing
services, provided to National Semiconductor and Samsung Electronics (10.2% and
10.7% of total revenues in the first quarters of stub year 1999 and fiscal 1999,
respectively).
Trade revenues increased 115.7% to $291.4 million in the first
quarter of stub year 1999 compared with $135.1 million in the first quarter of
fiscal 1999. Trade sales for the first quarter of stub year 1999 include those
of the Power Device Products Group. Excluding Power Devices, trade sales
increased 20.3% in the first quarter of stub year 1999 over the first quarter of
fiscal 1999, as higher sales volume offset lower average selling prices. The
increase in trade sales is attributable to improved demand due to strength in
end-markets such as personal computers and an economic recovery in the
Asia/Pacific region, and was observed across all segments except Memory, whose
sales declined as a result of exiting certain unprofitable product lines.
Analog, Discrete and Logic sales were up 5.9%, 42.2% and 19.6%, respectively
in the first quarter of stub year 1999 over the first quarter of fiscal 1999.
Approximately 69.3% of the Company's trade revenues were generated
from Analog, Discrete and Power Device products in the first quarter of stub
year 1999.
Geographically, 23.4%, 12.3%, 42.9% and 21.4% of trade sales were
derived from North America, Europe, Asia/Pacific and Korea, respectively, in the
first quarter of stub year 1999. Excluding Power Devices, 34.9%, 17.7% and 47.4%
of trade sales were derived from North America, Europe and Asia/Pacific
(including Korea), respectively, in the first quarter of stub year 1999,
compared to 42.2%, 18.7% and 39.1% in the first quarter of fiscal 1999.
Excluding Power Devices, the Asia/Pacific and European regions saw increases in
trade sales in the first quarter of stub year 1999 compared to the first
9
10
quarter of fiscal 1999 of 45.6% and 13.9%, respectively, while the Americas saw
no change. The increases resulted from increased customer demand due to general
market improvement, and in the case of Asia/Pacific, improving economic
conditions.
Contract manufacturing revenues increased 104.3% to $33.1 million in
the first quarter of stub year 1999 compared to $16.2 million in the first
quarter of fiscal 1999. Excluding contract manufacturing services provided by
the Power Devices Products Group to Samsung Electronics, contract manufacturing
revenues increased 54.3% in the first quarter of stub year 1999 as compared to
fiscal 1999, reflecting increased demand from National Semiconductor.
GROSS PROFIT
Gross profit increased 214.1% to $95.5 million in the first quarter
of stub year 1999 compared to $30.4 million in the first quarter of fiscal 1999.
Excluding the effect of Power Devices, gross profit increased 45.1% in the first
quarter of stub year 1999 over the first quarter of fiscal 1999. As a percentage
of trade sales, gross trade profits were 29.6% in the first quarter of stub year
1999. Excluding Power Devices, gross trade profits as a percentage of trade
sales were 24.3% in the first quarter of stub year 1999 compared to 21.3% in the
first quarter of fiscal 1999. The increase in gross trade profit as a percentage
of trade sales was due to the favorable effect of increased factory utilization
and the benefit of cost reduction actions undertaken in fiscal 1999, offset by
lower average selling prices. Contract manufacturing gross profit increased
468.8% to $9.1 million in the first quarter of stub year 1999 compared to $1.6
million in the first quarter of fiscal 1999. The increase in contract
manufacturing gross profit is due to incremental business with Samsung
Electronics as a result of the acquisition of Power Devices and greater demand
from National Semiconductor reflective of improved market conditions. Contract
manufacturing gross profit for the first quarter of fiscal 1999 included $6.2
million of fixed cost reimbursement under the Company's manufacturing agreements
with National Semiconductor.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
Research and development expenses ("R&D") were $14.0 million, or 4.8%
of trade sales, in the first quarter of stub year 1999, compared to $9.2
million, or 6.8% of trade sales, in the first quarter of fiscal 1999. The
increase in R&D expenses is driven by the dedicated R&D costs incurred by Power
Devices in the first quarter of stub year 1999 which the Company did not incur
in fiscal 1999. R&D efforts are focused on the Company's growth products
(Analog, DMOS, Power Devices and CMOS logic). R&D expenditures for these growth
products were 5.6% and 9.3% of trade sales in the first quarter of stub year
1999 and fiscal 1999, respectively. R&D expenditures for the Company's mature
products (Bipolar Logic, Bipolar Discretes and EPROM) were less than 1% of trade
sales for both the first quarter of stub year 1999 and fiscal 1999. The decrease
in R&D expenditures for growth products as a percentage of trade sales is due to
the relatively small R&D requirements of the power device business as a
percentage of sales.
SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE
Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") were $56.4
million, or 19.4% of trade sales, in the first quarter of stub year 1999,
compared to $22.6 million, or 16.7% of trade sales, in the first quarter of
fiscal 1999. SG&A expenses in the first quarter of stub year 1999 include an
unusual charge of $8.3 million for the forgiveness of certain loans made to the
Company's management investors for payment of individual income tax liabilities
resulting from their ownership of the Company's common stock. Excluding this
unusual charge, SG&A was $48.1 million, or 16.5% of trade sales, in the first
quarter of stub year 1999. The increase in SG&A expenses is primarily the result
of the incremental SG&A expenses of Power Devices, which the Company did not
incur in the first quarter of fiscal 1999 and increased selling expenses for the
pre-existing business due to higher sales volume.
10
11
RESTRUCTURING
The Company incurred a pre-tax restructuring charge of approximately
$4.5 million in the first quarter of fiscal 1999. The charge consisted of $0.8
million related to non-cash asset impairments and $3.7 million of employee
separation costs related to the reduction of approximately 600 salaried, hourly
and temporary positions, then representing approximately 10% of the Company's
payroll. Substantially all amounts have been expended with respect to the
Company's fiscal 1999 restructuring actions with the exception of the Analog
wafer production transfer to South Portland, Maine. Approximately $0.6 million
was expended in the first quarter of stub year 1999 for this transfer with an
estimated $6.0 million of accrued liabilities expected to be expended by the end
of the first quarter of 2000.
INTEREST EXPENSE, NET
Interest expense, net was $32.5 million in the first quarter of stub
year 1999, compared to $14.4 million in the first quarter of fiscal 1999.
Interest expense, net in the first quarter of stub year 1999 includes an unusual
charge of $7.2 million for the write-off of deferred financing fees associated
with debt retired with the proceeds from the IPO. Excluding this charge,
interest expense, net was $25.3 million in the first quarter of stub year 1999.
The increase is principally the result of indebtedness incurred to finance the
Power Device acquisition, which occurred in the fourth quarter of fiscal 1999.
INCOME TAXES
Income tax expense was $0.6 million for the first quarter of stub
year 1999, compared to a tax benefit of $4.1 million in the first quarter of
fiscal 1999. The effective tax rates for the first quarter of stub year 1999 and
fiscal 1999 on book pre-tax income were (8.1)% and 20.2%, respectively. In the
first quarter of stub year 1999, the tax provision is based on income generated
from the Company's foreign operations, excluding Korea where the Company
benefits from a tax holiday. The decrease in the tax benefit is due to the

PURCHASED IN-PROCESS RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
In connection with its acquisitions of the Power Device Products
Group and Raytheon Semiconductor completed in fiscal 1999 and fiscal 1998,
respectively, the Company allocated a portion of each purchase price to
in-process research and development projects. This allocation represented the
estimated fair value based on risk-adjusted cash flows related to the incomplete
products. At the date of the acquisition, the development of these projects had
no alternative future uses. Accordingly, these costs were expensed as of each
respective acquisition date.
The Power Device Product Group's results to date have been
consistent, in all material respects, with the assumptions of the Company at the
time of the acquisition as they relate to the value of the purchased in-process
research and development. Actual results to date on Raytheon products have
fallen short of expectations due to unfavorable market conditions during the
recent industry downturn and higher than expected costs on certain projects. The
Company has addressed the cost issues in the restructuring of its Mountain View
facility and expects improvement in demand for these products as market
conditions continue to improve. The weaker cash flows from these projects have
not had, nor are expected to have, any material adverse impact on the results of
the Company or its financial position, including the recoverability of
intangible assets.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
As of August 29, 1999, the Company's cash and cash equivalents
balance was $119.2 million, an increase of $56.8 million from May 30, 1999. In
addition, the Company has $100.0 million available under its Revolving Credit
Facility, which was not utilized as of August 29, 1999.
11
12
On August 9, 1999, the Company completed an initial public offering
of 20,000,000 shares of its Class A Common Stock. The gross proceeds from the
offering of $370.0 million were used to repay an 11.74% Subordinated Note due
2008 ($101.4 million), to repay a 12.5% Subordinated Note due 2008 ($53.0
million), including a prepayment penalty of $0.8 million, to repay the Tranche A
term loan and partially repay the Tranche B term loan, in each case under the
Company's senior credit facilities, in the aggregate amount of $190.6 million,
and to pay fees and expenses from the IPO of approximately $25.0 million. In
addition, as a result of the IPO, a warrant issued to Citicorp Mezzanine
Partners, L.P. to purchase 3,538,228 shares of the Company's Class A Common
Stock became unexercisable.
During the first quarter of stub year 1999, the Company's operations
provided $49.7 million in cash compared to a use of $5.3 million of cash in the
first quarter of fiscal 1999. The increase in cash provided by operating
activities reflects an increase in net income adjusted for non-cash items of
$30.3 million as well as an increase in cash flows from changes in operating
assets and liabilities of $24.7 million. Cash provided by investing activities
during the first quarter of stub year 1999 totaled $12.5 million, compared to a
use of $12.8 million in the first quarter of fiscal 1999. The difference
primarily relates to the refund of Korean value added taxes paid as a result of
the acquisition of the Power Device Products Group. Capital expenditures in the
first quarter of stub year 1999 were made principally to add capacity in the
Company's assembly and test manufacturing facilities, whereas in the first
quarter of fiscal 1999, capital purchases were made primarily to install the
Company's enterprise software system. Capital expenditures for the balance of
stub year 1999 will be made primarily to increase capacity in the Company's
manufacturing facilities. Cash used in financing activities of $5.4 million for
the first quarter of stub year 1999 was primarily for the purchase of treasury
stock. Cash provided by financing activities of $16.6 million in the first
quarter of fiscal 1999 was due to proceeds received from the Company's revolving
credit line.
The senior credit facilities, the 10 1/8% Senior Subordinated Notes
and the 10 3/8% Senior Subordinated Notes do, and other debt instruments the
Company may enter into in the future may, impose various restrictions and
covenants on the Company which could potentially limit the Company's ability to
respond to market conditions, to provide for unanticipated capital investments
or to take advantage of business opportunities. The restrictive covenants
include limitations on consolidations, mergers and acquisitions, restrictions on
creating liens, restrictions on paying dividends or making other similar
restricted payments, restrictions on asset sales, limitations on borrowing
money, and limitations on capital expenditures, among other restrictions. The
covenants relating to financial ratios include minimum fixed charge and interest
coverage ratios and a maximum leverage ratio. The senior credit facilities also
limit the Company's ability to modify its certificate of incorporation, bylaws,
shareholder agreements or similar arrangements. In addition, the senior credit
facilities, the 10 1/8 % Senior Subordinated Notes and the 10 3/8% Senior
Subordinated Notes contain additional restrictions limiting the ability of the
Company's subsidiaries to make dividends or advances to the Company. However,
the Company's subsidiaries are permitted without material restrictions under its
debt instruments to make dividends or advances to Fairchild Semiconductor
Corporation. The Company believes that those funds permitted to be transferred,
together with existing cash, will be sufficient to meet cash obligations. The
Company expects that its existing cash, together with available funds from its
amended senior credit facilities and funds generated from operations, will be
sufficient to meet its anticipated operating requirements and to fund its
research and development and capital expenditures for the next twelve months. In
the long-term, additional borrowing or equity investment may be required to fund
future acquisitions.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES OF FAIRCHILD INTERNATIONAL EXCLUDING OUR
SUBSIDIARIES
Fairchild International is a holding company, the principal asset of
which is the stock of its wholly owned subsidiary, Fairchild Semiconductor
Corporation. Fairchild International on a stand-alone basis had no cash flow
from operations in the first quarter of stub year 1999, nor in the first quarter
of fiscal 1999. Fairchild International on a stand-alone basis will have no cash
requirements for the next twelve months.

OUTLOOK AND BUSINESS RISKS
The statements contained under this heading and elsewhere in
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations," other than statements of historical facts, are forward-looking
statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934. Forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking
terminology such as "believes," "expects," "may," "will," "should," "seeks,"
"approximately," "intends," "plans," "estimates," "anticipates," or "hopeful,"
or the negative of those terms or other comparable terminology, or by
discussions of strategy, plans or intentions. Forward-looking statements are
made based on current expectations and management's estimates, which involve
risks and uncertainties, including those described in the following paragraph.
Other factors that may affect the Company's future operating results are
described in Fairchild International's annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal
year ended May 30, 1999, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission on August 27, 1999, under the caption "Business-Risk Factors." Such
risks and uncertainties could cause actual results to be materially different
than those in the forward-looking statements. Readers are cautioned not to place
undue reliance on the forward-looking statements in this quarterly report on
Form 10-Q, which speak only as of the date hereof. The Company assumes no
obligation to update such information.
The following factors may affect the Company's future operating
results: (i) the potential effect of the Company's substantially leveraged
financial condition on its liquidity, its ability to fund capital expenditures,
working capital, debt service and research and development and its ability to
withstand adverse general economic, market or competitive conditions and
developments; (ii) restrictive covenants contained in the Company's debt
instruments that could limit its ability to borrow additional funds, dispose of
or acquire assets or fund capital expenditures; (iii) the highly cyclical and
competitive nature of the semiconductor industry and the potential for continued
softness in demand; (iv) the Company's dependence on continued demand for the
end-products such as personal computers, telecommunications, automotive, and
consumer and industrial electronic goods that incorporate its products; (v) the
need to design, develop, manufacture, market and support new products in order
to remain competitive in our markets; (vi) the ability to efficiently integrate
the operations of the Power Device Products Group into the Company and the risk
of losing customers or employees of the acquired operation; (vii) the Company's
dependence on the availability and cost of raw materials used in its products
and upon key subcontractors providing it with wafer fabrication, assembly and
test services; (viii) the Company's reliance on complex manufacturing processes
and its sensitivity to maintaining yields, efficiencies and continuous
operations; (ix) the Company's ability to successfully execute on the transfer
of wafer manufacturing processes from its Mountain View facility to its South
Portland facility without negatively impacting yields and customer service; (x)
uncertainties and legal risks associated with the dependence on, and potential
disputes concerning patents and other intellectual property rights; and (xi)
foreign currency and other risks associated with operating a global business.
Market conditions have generally been improving since the third
quarter of fiscal 1999. Strong bookings and demand throughout the historically
slower summer season evidenced an industry upturn. A portion of the bookings
increase occurred as industry-wide lead times extended and customers committed
their backlog for a longer period of time. Going forward, sequential bookings
increases are expected to return to more normal seasonal patterns as no further
lengthening of lead times is anticipated. The Company expects revenues to
increase moderately in the second quarter of stub year 1999 over the first
quarter of stub year 1999. Despite improving market conditions, pricing has
remained soft. However, due to the tightening market, management expects that
prices will rise slowly as market conditions continue to improve and that
margins will also improve slowly with these increases, better product mix,
manufacturing cost reductions and better overhead spreading. As a result of the
acquisition of the Power Device Products Group, the Company expects trade sales
and EBITDA in stub year 1999 will be higher than the comparable periods of
fiscal 1999.
Contract manufacturing revenues with National Semiconductor increased
substantially in the first quarter of stub year 1999 compared to the first
quarter of fiscal 1999. For the period from May 31, 1999
13
14
to May 26, 2000, National Semiconductor is obligated to purchase $80.0 million
of contract manufacturing services. Although demand from National Semiconductor
increased in the first quarter of stub year 1999, there can be no assurance that
demand will remain at these levels. Should National Semiconductor not meet its
purchase commitment, it could result in lower fixed cost absorption, and hence
could negatively impact gross profit in stub year 1999.
As a result of the acquisition of the Power Device Products Group,
Samsung Electronics became one of the Company's largest customers. Under the
terms of a product supply agreement, Samsung Electronics is obligated to
purchase approximately 702 million units per year of power device products
during the three-year period following the acquisition. Samsung Electronics'
purchase commitment is contingent upon our ability to satisfy Samsung
Electronics' quality and other specifications for power device products. Should
the Company not be able to comply with such specifications, or Samsung
Electronics not fulfill its obligation under the product supply agreement, there
could be a material adverse effect on our trade revenues and results from
operations.
The Company's assembly and test facilities, a wafer fabrication
facility, as well as certain subcontractors for wafer fabrication and assembly
and test services, are located in Southeast Asia, Korea and Japan. Reliance on
these facilities, as well as subcontractors located in this region of the world,
entails risks, both political and economic, including political instability,
asset seizures and currency exchange rate fluctuations. No assurance can be
given that such economic and political instability would not result in an
adverse effect on our operations or financial condition.
On September 21, 1999, Taiwan experienced a major earthquake. The
earthquake and resulting aftershocks have caused power outages and significant
damage to Taiwan's infrastructure. The Company has no manufacturing facilities
in Taiwan. However, the Company has a number of customers, primarily personal
computer manufacturers, located there. Based on initial damage assessments from
key customers in Taiwan, the Company expects no significant impact on its
revenue in that region as a result of the earthquake.
YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE
In the fourth quarter of fiscal 1997, the Company commenced its
enterprise software system implementation project for the purpose of separating
from National Semiconductor's business systems. The system, which is operational
for most of the Company's critical business processes, is year 2000 compliant.
For those legacy systems that will not be converted by December 31, 1999, year
2000 remediation projects are underway, and are expected to be completed by
October 31, 1999. The Company's business is dependent upon its information
systems as an integral part of all major business processes. Additionally,
internal resources have been redeployed to identify, test and correct year 2000
problems in other systems throughout the Company, including those systems
embedded in the Company's machinery and equipment. Identification of systems and
equipment that are not year 2000 compliant has been completed. As of August 29,
1999, remediation projects to correct identified problems were substantially
completed. Final completion of all projects is expected by October 31, 1999. The
Company is also reviewing the year 2000 readiness and compliance of its
principal suppliers of products and services, in order to identify and assess
any negative impacts that such non-compliances could have on the Company. In
addition, the Company is working with its customers to identify potential year
2000 issues with its products. The Company has completed its assessments. The
Company does not believe there are any year 2000 problems with its products. No
year 2000 issues were noted with its key suppliers, which in the Company's
opinion would cause a major disruption to its operations. In the first quarter
of stub year 1999 and in fiscal 1999, incremental amounts incurred and charged
to expense to identify, test and correct such other year 2000 problems were
immaterial to the financial statements. Future incremental expenditures are
currently estimated to be approximately $0.7 million, the majority of which
should be incurred before the end of the second quarter of stub year 1999.
Although we believe the Company's systems will be year 2000 compliant, the
failure of the Company's suppliers and customers to address the year 2000 issue
could result in disruption to the Company's operations and have a significant
14
15
adverse impact on its results of operations, the extent of which the Company has
not yet estimated. The Company is actively engaged in preparing contingency
plans in the event that key suppliers fail to become year 2000 compliant. For
example, for key materials, which are imported from outside the U.S.,
arrangements are being made to insure at least four weeks of available supply.
The Company, in the ordinary course of business, seeks to expand its customer
base to lessen dependence on any one customer for a significant portion of its
revenues, and seeks second sources of supply for its key products and services
where appropriate.
The Power Device Products Group is dependent upon the information
systems of Samsung Electronics. Under the terms of an agreement with Samsung SDS
Co., Ltd., entered into in connection with the acquisition of the Power Device
Products Group, Samsung SDS Co., Ltd. has agreed to provide information
technology services to the Power Device Products Group and to support the use of
its information systems for a three-year period following consummation of the
acquisition of the power device business. The terms of the agreement with
Samsung SDS Co., Ltd. require it to insure the systems utilized by the Power
Device Products Group are year 2000 compliant. Samsung Electronics' systems have
been certified by a Korean government agency to be year 2000 compliant.
