NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(1) Nature of Operations

 

We are a leading worldwide producer of wafers for the semiconductor industry. We operate manufacturing facilities in every major semiconductor manufacturing region throughout the world, including Europe, Japan, Malaysia, South Korea, Taiwan and the United States. Our customers include virtually all of the major semiconductor device manufacturers in the world. We provide wafers in sizes ranging from 100 millimeters (4 inch) to 300 millimeters (12 inch) and in three general categories: prime polished, epitaxial and test/monitor. A prime polished wafer is a highly refined, pure wafer with an ultra-flat and ultra-clean surface. An epitaxial wafer consists of a thin, silicon layer grown on the polished surface of the wafer. A test/monitor wafer is substantially the same as a prime polished wafer, but with some less rigorous specifications.

(2) Significant Accounting Policies

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

We account for our stock-based compensation under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 (Opinion 25), “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees”, and related interpretations. We record compensation expense related to restricted stock units awards over the vesting periods of the awards and reflect the unearned portion of deferred compensation as a separate component of stockholders’ equity.

 

No compensation cost has been recognized for non-qualified stock options granted under the plans when the exercise price of the stock options equals the market price on the date of grant. Compensation expense equal to the intrinsic value of the options has been recognized over the vesting periods for options granted at a price below market price on the grant date and deferred compensation has been recorded for the unearned portion of the options as a separate component of stockholders’ equity. Had compensation cost been determined for our non-qualified stock options based on the fair value at the grant dates consistent with the alternative method set forth under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” we would have reported the amounts indicated below:

(3) Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of MEMC Electronic Materials, Inc. and subsidiaries (MEMC), in our opinion, include all adjustments (consisting of normal, recurring items) necessary to present fairly MEMC’s financial position and results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. We have presented the consolidated financial statements in accordance with the requirements of Regulation S-X and consequently do not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
