SEMTECH CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

 

1. Earnings Per Share and Stock-Based Compensation

 

Earnings Per Share

 

Basic earnings per common share are computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per common share incorporate the incremental shares issuable upon the assumed exercise of stock options. The weighted average number of shares used to compute basic earnings per share in the first quarters of fiscal years 2005 and 2004 were 74,226,000 and 73,236,000, respectively. The weighted average number of shares used to compute diluted earnings per share in the first quarters of fiscal years 2005 and 2004 were 78,819,000 and 76,522,000, respectively.

 

Options to purchase approximately 2,882,459 and 4,886,000 shares, respectively, were not included in the computation of the first quarter’s of fiscal years 2005 and 2004 diluted net income per share because such options were considered anti-dilutive. Shares associated with the Company’s previously outstanding convertible subordinated notes were also not included in the computation of earnings per share as they were anti-dilutive.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for its employee stock option plans under the intrinsic value method prescribed by Accounting Principles Board Opinion (“APB”) No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees,” and related interpretations, and has adopted the disclosure-only provisions of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” and as amended by SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation – Transition and Disclosure, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 123.”

 

SFAS No. 123, as amended by SFAS No. 148, permits companies to recognize, as expense over the vesting period, the fair value of all stock-based awards on the date of grant. The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options, which have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. Because the Company’s stock-based compensation plans have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, management believes that the existing option valuation models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of awards from the plan. Therefore, as permitted, the Company applies the existing accounting rules under APB No. 25 and provides pro forma net income and pro forma net income per share disclosures for stock-based awards made during the indicated period as if the fair value method defined in SFAS No. 123, as amended, had been applied. Net income and net income per share for the first quarters of fiscal years 2005 and 2004 would have been reduced to the following pro forma amounts:

The pro forma effect on net income for the first three months of fiscal years 2005 and 2004 may not be representative of the pro forma effect on net income of future years because the SFAS No. 123 method of accounting for pro forma compensation expense has not been applied to options granted prior to January 30, 1995.

 

The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options which have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. Option valuation models also require the input of highly subjective assumptions such as expected option life and expected stock price volatility.

 

2. Business Segments and Concentrations of Risk

 

As of January 25, 2004, the Company operates in two reportable segments: Standard Semiconductor Products and Rectifier, Assembly and Other Products. The Rectifier, Assembly and Other Products segment has represented less than 10% of net sales for the last three fiscal years.

 

The Standard Semiconductor Products segment makes up the vast majority of overall sales and includes the power management, protection, test and measurement, advanced communications and human input device product lines. The Rectifier, Assembly and Other Products segment includes the Company’s line of assembly and rectifier devices, which are the remaining products from its original founding as a supplier into the military, aerospace and industrial equipment market. It also includes other products made up of custom integrated circuit and foundry sales.

 

The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described above and in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended January 25, 2004 in the summary of significant accounting policies. The Company evaluates segment performance based on net sales and operating income of each segment. Management does not track segment data or evaluate segment performance on additional financial information. As such, there are no separately identifiable segment assets nor is there any separately identifiable statements of income data (below operating income).

 

The Company does not track or assign assets to individual reportable segments. Likewise, depreciation expense and capital additions are also not tracked by reportable segments.

In the first quarter of fiscal year 2005, one of the Company’s Asian distributors accounted for approximately 10% of net sales. In the first quarter of fiscal year 2004, this Asian distributor accounted for approximately 13% of net sales and another one of its Asian distributors accounted for approximately 11% of net sales. No end-customer accounted for 10% or more of net sales in the first quarter of fiscal years 2005 or 2004.

 

As of April 25, 2004, one of the Company’s OEM customers accounted for approximately 11% of net accounts receivable. Receivables from customers are not secured by any type of collateral.

Long-lived assets located outside the United States as of April 25, 2004 and January 25, 2004 were approximately $14.3 million and $11.3 million, respectively.

 

The Company relies on a limited number of outside subcontractors and suppliers for silicon wafers, packaging and certain other tasks. Disruption or termination of supply sources or subcontractors could delay shipments and could have a material adverse effect on the Company. Several of the Company’s outside subcontractors and suppliers, including third-party foundries that supply silicon wafers, are located in foreign countries, including China, Malaysia, the Philippines and Germany. A significant amount of the Company’s assembly and test operations are conducted by third-party contractors in Malaysia and the Philippines, and the largest source of silicon wafers come from an outside foundry located in China.

 

3. Temporary and Long-Term Investments

 

Temporary and long-term investments consist of government, bank and corporate obligations. Temporary investments have original maturities in excess of three months, but mature within twelve months of the balance sheet date. Long-term investments have maturities in excess of one year from the date of the balance sheet.

 

The Company classifies its investments as “available for sale” because it expects to possibly sell some securities prior to maturity. The Company’s investments are subject to market risk, primarily interest rate and credit risk. The Company’s investments are managed by a limited number of outside professional managers within investment guidelines set by the Company. Such guidelines include security type, credit quality and maturity and are intended to limit market risk by restricting the Company’s investments to high quality debt instruments with relatively short-term maturities.

 

The Company included $674,000 of unrealized loss and $276,000 of unrealized gain, net of tax, in the comprehensive income portion of the Consolidated Statements of Stockholders’ Equity and Comprehensive Income for the first quarters of fiscal years 2005 and 2004, respectively.

 

Temporary and long-term investments consist of the following security types, stated at fair market value and book value, with the difference in these amounts booked as part of comprehensive income:
