NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
Note 1. Basis of Presentation
HeartWare International, Inc., referred to in these notes collectively with its subsidiaries
HeartWare Pty. Limited, HeartWare, Inc., HeartWare (UK) Limited and HeartWare GmbH as we, our,
HeartWare or the Company, is a medical device company that develops and manufactures small
implantable heart pumps, or ventricular assist devices, used in the treatment of advanced heart
failure.
The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)
for reporting of interim financial information. Pursuant to such rules and regulations, certain
information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been condensed
or omitted. Accordingly, these statements do not include all the disclosures normally required by
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for annual financial statements and
should be read in conjunction with Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations contained in this report and the audited financial statements and notes
thereto for the year ended December 31, 2010 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K. The
accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2010 has been derived from our
audited financial statements. The condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and
six months ended June 30, 2011 and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2011 are not
necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any future period or for the year ending
December 31, 2011.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated
financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normally recurring adjustments)
necessary to present fairly the financial position and results of operations as of the dates and
for the periods presented.
Note 2. Liquidity
At June 30, 2011, we had approximately $198.8 million of cash, cash equivalents and
investments. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, which contemplates
continuation of the Company as a going concern. We have sustained substantial losses from
operations since our inception, and such losses have continued through June 30, 2011. At June 30,
2011, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $146.8 million.
We have financed our operations primarily through the issuance of shares of our common stock
and the issuance of convertible notes. Most recently, in December 2010, we consummated the
issuance and sale of $143.75 million aggregate principal amount of convertible notes. The
convertible notes are the senior unsecured obligations of the Company. The convertible notes bear
interest at a rate of 3.5% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15
of each year, beginning on June 15, 2011. The convertible notes will mature on December 15, 2017,
unless earlier repurchased or converted. The convertible notes will be convertible at an initial
conversion rate of 10 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of convertible notes,
which corresponds to an initial conversion price of $100.00 per share of common stock.
For the remainder of 2011, our cash, cash equivalents and investments are expected to
primarily be used to fund our ongoing operations including expanding our sales and marketing
capabilities on a global basis, continuing our ENDURANCE trial for destination therapy, enrolling
additional patients in our ADVANCE trial under a Continued Access Protocol (CAP), continued
product development, regulatory and other compliance functions, including costs related to testing
and submission of our PMA application, as well as for general
working capital. We believe our cash, cash equivalent and investment balances are sufficient
to support our planned operations through 2012.

Note 3. Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of HeartWare
International, Inc., and its subsidiaries described in Note 1. All inter-company balances and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Accounting Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States (US GAAP) requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts
of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents are recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheets at cost,
which approximates fair value. All highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three
months or less at the date of purchase are considered to be cash equivalents.
Investments
Our investments classified as available-for-sale are stated at fair value with unrealized
gains and losses reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss within stockholders equity. We
classify our available-for-sale investments as short-term if their remaining time to maturity at
purchase is beyond three months. Investments with maturities beyond one year may be classified as
short-term based on their highly liquid nature and because such marketable securities represent the
investment of cash that is available for current operations. Interest on investments classified as
available-for-sale is included in investment income, net. Premiums paid on our short-term
investments are amortized over the remaining term of the investment and such amortization is
included in investment income, net.
Receivables
Accounts receivable consists of amounts due from the sale of our HeartWare® Ventricular Assist
System (the HeartWare System) to our customers, which include hospitals, health research
institutions and medical device distributors. Our receivables are geographically dispersed, with a
significant portion from customers located in Europe and other foreign countries. As of June 30,
2011 and December 31, 2010, one customer had an accounts receivable balance representing
approximately 11% and 13%, respectively, of our total accounts receivable.
We maintain allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses that may result from an
inability to collect payments owed to us for product sales. We regularly review the allowance by
considering factors such as historical experience, the age of the accounts receivable balances and
current economic conditions that may affect a customers ability to pay.
11
Table of Contents
The following table summarizes the change in our allowance for doubtful accounts for the six
months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010:

$ | 900,000 | $ | 285,000 | ||||
As of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, we did not have an allowance for returns.
Inventories, net
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using a first-in,
first-out, or FIFO, method. Work-in-process and finished goods include direct and indirect labor
and manufacturing overhead. Finished goods include product which is ready-for-use and which is held
by us or by our customers on a consignment basis.
We review our inventory for excess or obsolete inventory and write-down obsolete or otherwise
unmarketable inventory to its estimated net realizable value. Obsolescence may occur due to
product expiring or product improvements rendering previous versions obsolete. In May 2011, we
began shipping a sintered version of the HeartWare System on a global basis. Sintering is commonly
used in medical devices to facilitate tissue adhesion. The extent to which this product enhancement
will cause obsolescence of existing non-sintered inventory is difficult to determine because the
rate of product adoption of sintered product is dependent on individual customer acceptance,
implantation rates and approval timeframes of Institutional Review Boards at U.S. sites. As of June
30, 2011, we had $3.5 million of non-sintered inventory on hand and this product continues to be
implanted at customer sites. However, a write-down of all or a portion of this inventory as
obsolete could have a material impact on our results of operations.
Deferred Financing Costs
Costs incurred in connection with the issuance of our convertible senior notes in December
2010 have been allocated between the liability component and the equity component as further
discussed in Note 11. The liability component of the issuance costs incurred was capitalized and is
included in deferred financing costs, net on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. These costs
are being amortized using the effective interest method through December 15, 2017, the maturity
date of the notes, and such amortization expense is reflected in interest expense on our condensed
consolidated statements of operations. The amount of amortization for the three and six months
ended June 30, 2011 was approximately $71,000 and $139,000, respectively.
Product Warranty
Certain patient accessories sold with the HeartWare System are covered by a limited warranty
ranging from one to two years. Estimated contractual warranty obligations are recorded as an
expense when the related revenue is recognized and are included in cost of revenues on the
condensed consolidated statements of operations. Factors that affect the estimated warranty
liability include the number of units sold, historical and anticipated rates of warranty claims,
cost per claim, and vendor supported warranty programs. We periodically assess the adequacy of our
recorded warranty liabilities and adjust the amounts as necessary.
The amount of the liability recorded is equal to the estimated costs to repair or otherwise
satisfy claims made by customers. Accrued warranty expense is included as a component of accrued
expenses and other current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Table of Contents
The costs to repair or replace products associated with product recalls and voluntary service
campaigns are recorded when they are determined to be probable and reasonably estimable as a cost
of revenues and are not included in the product warranty liability. No such costs were incurred in
the six months ended June 30, 2011 and approximately $411,000 was incurred in the six months ended
June 30, 2010.
The following table summarizes the change in our warranty liability for the six months ended
June 30, 2011 and 2010:

Fair Value Measurements
The carrying amounts reported in the condensed consolidated balance sheets for cash and cash
equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses and other current
liabilities approximate their fair value based on the short-term maturity of these instruments.
Investments are considered available-for-sale as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 and are
carried at fair value. See Note 6, Fair Value Measurements and Note 10, Debt for more
information.
Vendor Concentration
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, we purchased approximately 55% of our
inventory components and supplies from two vendors. For the three and six months ended June 30,
2010, we purchased approximately 62% and 51%, respectively, of our inventory components and
supplies from the same two vendors. In addition, one of these vendors supplies consulting services
and material used in research and development activities. As of June 30, 2011 and 2010, the amounts
due to these vendors totaled approximately $788,000 and $1.1 million, respectively.
Concentration of Credit Risk and other Risks and Uncertainties
Financial instruments that potentially expose us to concentrations of credit risk consist
primarily of cash and cash equivalents, investments and trade accounts receivable. Cash and cash
equivalents are primarily on deposit with financial institutions in the United States and these
deposits generally exceed the amount of insurance provided by the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation (the FDIC). The Company has not experienced any historical losses on its deposits of
cash and cash equivalents. Our investments consist of investment grade rated corporate and
government agency debt.
Concentration of credit risk with respect to our trade accounts receivable from our customers
is primarily limited to hospitals, health research institutions and medical device distributors.
Credit is extended to our customers, based on an evaluation of a customers financial condition and
collateral is not required. To date, we have not experienced any credit losses, but have
established an allowance for doubtful accounts of $900,000 at June 30, 2011.
We are subject to certain risks and uncertainties including, but not limited to, our ability
to achieve profitability, to generate cash flow sufficient to satisfy our indebtedness, to run
clinical trials in order to receive and maintain FDA and foreign regulatory approvals for our
products, the ability to achieve widespread acceptance of our product, our ability to manufacture
our products in a sufficient volume and at a reasonable cost, the ability to protect our
proprietary technologies and develop new products, the risks associated with
operating in foreign countries, and general competitive and economic conditions. Changes in
any of the preceding areas could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of
operations or financial position.

New Accounting Standards
In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards
Update (ASU) No. 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair
Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs. ASU No. 2011-04 clarifies
some existing concepts, eliminates wording differences between U.S. GAAP and International
Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), and in some limited cases, changes some principles to
achieve convergence between U.S. GAAP and IFRS. ASU No. 2011-04 results in a consistent definition
of fair value and common requirements for measurement of and disclosure about fair value between
U.S. GAAP and IFRS. ASU No. 2011-04 also expands the disclosures for fair value measurements that
are estimated using significant unobservable (Level 3) inputs. The provisions of ASU No. 2011-04
will become effective for us on January 1, 2012 and are to be applied prospectively. We do not
expect the adoption of the provisions of ASU No. 2011-04 to have a material effect on our
consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows and we do not expect to
materially modify or expand our financial statement footnote disclosures.
In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation
of Comprehensive Income. ASU No. 2011-05 requires an entity to present the total of comprehensive
income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a
single continuous statement of comprehensive income, or in two separate but consecutive statements.
ASU No. 2011-05 eliminates the option to present components of other comprehensive income as part
of the statement of stockholders equity. The presentation requirements will become effective for
us on January 1, 2012. As ASU No. 2011-05 applies to financial statement presentation matters, the
adoption of ASU No. 2011-05 will not affect our consolidated financial position, results of
operations or cash flows and we believe our current presentation of comprehensive income complies
with the new presentation requirements.
Note 4. Investments
We have cash investment policies that limit investments to investment grade securities. At
June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, all of our investments were classified as available-for-sale
and carried at fair value. Our investments in corporate debt are guaranteed by the FDIC or foreign
governments. At June 30, 2011, all of our investments had maturity dates of less than twenty-four
months.
The amortized cost and fair value of our investments, with gross unrealized gains and losses,

Note 5. Foreign Exchange Instruments
During the quarter ended June 30, 2011, we entered into a foreign currency forward-exchange
contract in an effort to minimize the risk of future fluctuations in the exchange rates between
Australian dollars and Japanese Yen. The foreign currency forward-exchange contract was directly
related to an asset purchase commitment by our Australian subsidiary. We do not utilize derivative
financial instruments for speculative or trading purposes.
As of June 30, 2011, the forward contract to sell Australian dollars to Japanese Yen had a
notional value of AU$858,000 and an exchange rate of one Australian dollar to 83.35 Japanese Yen.
During the quarter ended June 30, 2011, the realized fair value of this forward exchange contract
resulted in an expense of $16,000, which is included in other, net on the condensed consolidated
statements of operations.
Note 6. Fair Value Measurements
FASB ASC 820 Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, defines fair value as the price that
would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction
between market participants at the measurement date. FASB ASC 820 requires disclosures about the
fair value of all financial instruments, whether or not recognized, for financial statement
purposes. Disclosures about the fair value of financial instruments are based on pertinent
information available to us as of the reporting dates. Accordingly, the estimates presented in
these condensed consolidated financial statements are not necessarily indicative of the amounts
that could be realized on disposition of the financial instruments.
FASB ASC 820 specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to
those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect market data
obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect market assumptions. The
hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical
assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3
measurement).
The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
Level 1 Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.
Level 2 Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for
identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations whose
inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable.
Level 3 Instruments with primarily unobservable value drivers.

The fair value of our investments was determined using quoted prices for the instruments in
markets that are not active. The fair value of our foreign exchange instrument was determined using
observable market data such as pricing for similar instruments or recently executed transactions.

Note 11. Debt
Convertible Senior Notes
On December 15, 2010, we completed the sale of 3.5% convertible senior notes due 2017 (the
Convertible Notes) for an aggregate principal amount of $143.75 million pursuant to the terms of
an Indenture dated December 15, 2010. The Convertible Notes are the senior unsecured obligations of
the Company. The Convertible Notes bear interest at a rate of 3.5% per annum, payable semi-annually
in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year, beginning on June 15, 2011. The Convertible
Notes will mature on December 15, 2017, unless earlier repurchased by us or converted.
17
Table of Contents
The Convertible Notes will be convertible at an initial conversion rate of 10 shares of
our common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Convertible Notes, which corresponds to an initial
conversion price of $100.00 per share of our common stock representing a conversion premium of
approximately 23% based on the closing price of $81.31 per share of our common stock on December 9,
2010, the day the notes were priced. The conversion rate is subject to adjustment from time to time
upon the occurrence of certain events.
Prior to June 15, 2017, holders may convert their Convertible Notes at their option only upon
satisfaction of one or more conditions relating to the sale price of our common stock, the trading
price per $1,000 principal amount of Convertible Notes or specified corporate events. On or after
June 15, 2017, until the close of business of the business day immediately preceding the date the
Convertible Notes mature, holders may convert their Convertible Notes at any time, regardless of
whether any of the foregoing conditions have been met. As of the date of this report, none of the
events that would allow holders to convert their Convertible Notes have occurred. Upon conversion,
we will pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash, shares of our common stock or a combination
thereof, at our election.
In accordance with ASC 470-20, Debt, which applies to certain convertible debt instruments
that may be settled in cash or other assets, or partially in cash, upon conversion, we recorded the
long-term debt and equity components on our Convertible Notes separately on the issuance date. The
amount recorded for long-term debt was determined by measuring the fair value of a similar
liability that does not have an associated equity component. The measurement of fair value required
the Company to make estimates and assumptions to determine the present value of the cash flows of
the Convertible Notes, absent the conversion feature. This treatment increased interest expense
associated with our Convertible Notes by adding a non-cash component to amortize a debt discount
calculated based on the difference between the 3.5% cash coupon rate and the effective interest
rate on debt borrowing of approximately 12.5%. The discount is being amortized to interest expense
through the December 15, 2017 maturity date of the Convertible Notes using the effective interest
method and is included in interest expense on the condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Additionally, we allocated the costs related to issuance of the Convertible Notes on the same
percentage as the long-term debt and equity components, such that a portion of the costs is
allocated to the long-term debt component and the equity component included in additional paid-in
capital. The portion of the costs allocated to the long-term debt component is presented as
deferred financing costs, net on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. These deferred
financing costs are also being amortized to interest expense through the December 15, 2017 maturity
date of the Convertible Notes using the effective interest method and such amortization is included
in interest expense on the condensed consolidated statements of operations
The Convertible Notes and the equity component, which is recorded in additional
paid-in-capital, consisted of the following:
June 30, | December 31, | |||||||

Based on the initial conversion rate of 10 shares of our common stock per $1,000
principal amount of Convertible Notes, which corresponds to an initial conversion price of $100.00
per share of our common stock, the number of shares issuable upon conversion of the Convertible
Notes is 1,437,500. The value of these shares, based on the closing price of our common stock on
June 30, 2011 of $74.08, was approximately $106.5 million. The fair value of our Convertible Notes
as presented in Note 6 was $151.1 million and $160.7 million at June 30, 2011 and December 31,
2010, respectively.

Note 12. Stockholders Equity
In February 2010, we completed a public offering of approximately 1.77 million shares of our
common stock, including the underwriters exercise of their overallotment to purchase 230,595
shares, at an offering price of $35.50 per share for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately
$62.8 million. The underwriters for the transaction received a fee of 6% of the gross proceeds.
After fees and related expenses, net proceeds from the offering were approximately $58.5 million.
The offering was completed pursuant to a prospectus supplement, dated January 27, 2010, to a
shelf registration statement on Form S-3 that was previously filed with the SEC and which was
declared effective on January 20, 2010. This shelf registration statement allows us to offer and
sell from time to time, in one or more series or issuances and on terms that we will determine at
the time of the offering, any combination of the securities described in the prospectus, up to an
aggregate amount of $100 million.
In the six months ended June 30, 2011, we issued an aggregate of 17,606 shares of our common
stock upon the exercise of stock options and an aggregate of 29,692 shares of our common stock upon
the vesting of restricted stock units.
Note 13. Share-Based Compensation
We recognize share-based compensation expense for the portion of awards that are ultimately
expected to vest using an accelerated accrual method over the vesting period from the date of
grant. We estimate forfeitures at the time of grant. We have applied a forfeiture rate of
approximately 12.5% to all unvested share-based awards as of June 30, 2011, which represents the
portion that we expect will be forfeited over the vesting period. We reevaluate this estimated rate
periodically and adjust the forfeiture rate as necessary. Vesting of share-based awards issued with
performance-based vesting criteria must be probable before we begin recording share-based
compensation expense. At each reporting period, we review the likelihood that these awards will
vest and if the vesting is deemed probable, we begin to recognize compensation expense at that
time. If ultimately performance goals are not met, for any awards where vesting was previously
deemed probable, previously recognized compensation cost will be reversed.
19
Table of Contents
We allocate share-based compensation expense to cost of revenues, selling, general and
administrative expense and research and development expense based on the award holders employment
function. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, we recorded share-based
compensation expense as follows:
Three Months Ended | Six Months Ended | |||||||||||||||

No deferred tax benefits were attributed to our share-based compensation expense recorded
in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements because we are in a net operating
loss position and a full valuation allowance is maintained for all net deferred tax assets. We
receive a tax deduction for certain stock option exercises during the period the options are
exercised, and for the vesting of restricted stock units during the period the restricted stock
units vest. For stock options, the amount of the tax deduction is generally for the excess of the
fair market value of our shares of common stock over the exercise price of the stock options at the
date of exercise. For restricted stock units, the amount of the tax deduction is generally for the
fair market value of our shares of common stock at the vesting date. Excess tax benefits are not
included in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements because we are in a net
operating loss position and a full valuation allowance is maintained for all net deferred tax
assets.
Equity Plans
We have issued share-based awards to employees, non-executive directors and outside
consultants through various approved plans and outside of any formal plan. New shares are issued
upon the exercise of share-based awards.
On August 5, 2008, we adopted the HeartWare International, Inc. 2008 Stock Incentive Plan
(2008 SIP). The 2008 SIP allows for the issuance of share-based awards to employees, directors
and consultants. We have issued options and restricted stock units (RSUs) to employees and
directors under the 2008 SIP. The plan allows for the issuance of share-based awards representing
up to 13% of the prior fiscal years weighted average shares outstanding, less share-based awards
outstanding under our other equity plans. At June 30, 2011, there were approximately 619,000 shares
available for future awards under the 2008 SIP.
Stock Options
Each option allows the holder to subscribe for and be issued one share of our common stock at
a specified price, which is generally the quoted market price of our common stock on the date the
option is issued. Options generally vest on a pro-rata basis on each anniversary of the issuance
date within four years of the date the option is issued. Options may be exercised after they have
vested and prior to the specified expiry date provided applicable exercise conditions are met, if
any. The expiry date can be for periods of up to ten years from the date the option is issued.
In 2007 and 2008, we granted options with performance-based vesting criteria. These
performance-based options vest in four equal tranches contingent upon the achievement of
pre-determined corporate milestones related primarily to the development of our products and the
achievement of certain prescribed clinical and regulatory objectives. Any performance-based options
that have not vested after five years from the date of grant automatically expire.

ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 was $78.77 and $55.33, respectively.
At June 30, 2011, we had approximately $16.6 million of unrecognized compensation cost related
to non-vested RSU awards, including awards not yet deemed probable of vesting. The expense is
expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.3 years.
Note 14. Net Loss Per Common Share
Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss for the period by the
weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common
share adjusts basic net loss per common share for the dilutive effects of convertible securities,
options and other potentially dilutive instruments only in the periods in which such effect is
dilutive. Due to our net loss for all periods presented, all potentially dilutive instruments were
excluded because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive. The following instruments have been
excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per common share, as their effect would be
anti-dilutive.

Note 15. Business Segment, Geographic Areas and Major Customers
For financial reporting purposes, we have one reportable segment which designs, manufactures
and markets medical devices for the treatment of advanced heart failure. Generally, products are
sold to customers located in the United States through our clinical trials, as commercial products
to customers in Europe and under special access in other countries. Product sales attributed to a
country or region are based on the location of the customer to whom the products are sold.
Long-lived assets are primarily held in the United States.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, one customer accounted for
approximately 11% and 10%, respectively, of product sales in the aggregate. For the three and six
months ended June 30, 2010, two customers exceeded 10% of product sales individually and accounted
for approximately 30% and 29%, respectively, of product sales in the aggregate. As the majority of
our revenue is generated outside of the U.S., we are dependent on favorable economic and regulatory
environments for our products in Europe and other countries outside of the U.S.
The percentage of our revenue generated in the U.S. was lower in 2010 compared to 2011 due to
the completion of enrollment in our ADVANCE trial in the U.S. in February 2010. While the FDA
approved an Investigational Device Exemption Supplement that allowed us to enroll additional
patients in our ADVANCE trial under a Continued Access Protocol, we did not recommence enrollment
in our ADVANCE trial until the second quarter of 2010 while we awaited approval. Also contributing
to the increase in the percentage of our revenue generated in the U.S. in 2011 was continued
enrollment in our ENDURANCE destination therapy clinical trial in the U.S., which commenced in
August 2010.
Note 16. Commitments and Contingencies
At June 30, 2011, we had purchase order commitments of approximately $26.3 million related to
product costs and property, plant and equipment purchases. Many of our materials and supplies
require long lead times and as such purchase order commitments reflect materials that may be
received up to one year from the date of order.
From time to time we may be involved in litigation or other contingencies arising in the
ordinary course of business. Except as set forth below or in our 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K,
and based on the information presently available, management believes that there are no
contingencies, claims or actions, pending or threatened, the ultimate resolution of which will have
a material adverse effect on our financial position, liquidity or result of operations.
On February 24, 2010 we received a letter from two holders of Series A Preferred Stock in
HeartWare, Inc., an indirect subsidiary of HeartWare International, Inc. These holders requested
various financial and other information regarding HeartWare, Inc. for the purpose of determining
the Companys compliance with their rights as holders of Series A Preferred Stock, including
whether a liquidation event has occurred since inception in 2003. HeartWare, Inc. issued Series A-1
and Series A-2 Preferred Stock to certain equity holders of Kriton Medical, Inc. when HeartWare,
Inc. purchased substantially all of the assets of Kriton in July 2003. The Series A-1 and Series
A-2 Preferred Stock do not have voting or dividend rights but entitle the holders thereof to
receive, upon certain liquidation events of HeartWare, Inc. (but not the liquidation of or change
of control of HeartWare International, Inc.), an amount equal to $10 per share of Series A-1 and
$21 per share of Series A-2. The aggregate liquidation preference payment obligation totals
approximately $15 million.
23
Table of Contents
On June 27, 2011, HeartWare International, Inc. and HeartWare, Inc., along with HeartWares
directors, certain officers and a significant stockholder, were named as defendants in a putative
class action lawsuit filed in Massachusetts state court by two other Series A Preferred
Stockholders on behalf of all holders of Series A Preferred Stock. The complaint alleges that the
defendants breached their fiduciary and contractual obligations to Series A Preferred Stockholders
by preventing them from receiving a payment of the liquidation preference in connection with
certain corporate transactions, including a transaction in 2005 in which HeartWare, Inc. was
acquired by HeartWare Limited, a subsidiary of HeartWare International, Inc. The plaintiffs seek
monetary damages, interest, costs and limited equitable relief. We do not believe HeartWare
International, Inc., HeartWare, Inc. or any of our directors, officers or stockholders have
abrogated the rights, or in any way failed to satisfy obligations owed to, any of our stockholders,
including holders of Series A Preferred Stock. We intend to vigorously defend the suit.
In accordance with ASC 450, Contingencies, we accrue loss contingencies including costs of
settlement, damages and defense related to litigation to the extent they are probable and
estimable. Otherwise, we expense these costs as incurred. If the estimate of a probable loss is a
range and no amount within the range is more likely, we accrue the minimum amount of the range. As
of June 30, 2011 we have not accrued any amounts related to the above litigation.
Note 17. Subsequent Events
We have evaluated events and transactions that occurred subsequent to June 30, 2011 through
the date the financial statements were issued, for potential recognition or disclosure in the
accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.
We did not identify any events or transactions that should be recognized or disclosed in the
accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

ITEM 2: | MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS |
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations
should be read together with our unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and
related notes appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Certain abbreviated key
terms have the meanings defined elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Overview
HeartWare develops and manufactures small implantable heart pumps, or ventricular assist
devices, for the treatment of advanced heart failure.
The HeartWare® Ventricular Assist System (the HeartWare System), which includes a left
ventricular assist device (LVAD), or blood pump, patient accessories and surgical tools, is
designed to provide circulatory support for patients in the advanced stage of heart failure. The
core of the HeartWare System is a proprietary continuous flow blood pump, the HVAD Pump, which is a
full-output device capable of pumping up to 10 liters of blood per minute. The HeartWare System is
designed to be implanted adjacent to the heart, avoiding the abdominal surgery generally required
to implant similar devices.
In 2009, we received CE Marking for the HeartWare System in the European Union allowing for
commercial sale and distribution of our device. In the U.S., the device is the subject of clinical
trials for two indications: bridge-to-transplant and destination therapy. Our device is also
available in other countries around the world under special access programs.
Recent key milestones in the development and commercialization of the HeartWare System include
the following:
| FDA approval of an Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) Supplement that allows us to enroll a third allotment, of 94 additional patients, in our ADVANCE bridge-to-transplant clinical trial under a Continued Access Protocol (CAP); |
| Submission of a Pre-Market Approval application for our HeartWare System based on data generated in our ADVANCE bridge-to-transplant clinical trial and subsequent acceptance by the FDA of the application for filing and substantive review; |
| Being named to the REVIVE-IT study, a study to be completed by the Universities of Michigan and Pittsburgh on the benefits of LVADs in patients with earlier access to the device; |
| Approval of the HeartWare System by the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) in Australia for listing on the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods; |
| Approval by the U.S. FDA for use in our clinical trials and notification of acceptance by the British Standards Institution of a sintered inflow tube; and |
| Reimbursement approval in France and Belgium of the HeartWare System. |
Beyond the HeartWare System, we are also evaluating our next generation device, the MVAD. The
MVAD is based on the same technology platform as the HeartWare System but adopts an axial flow,
rather than a centrifugal flow approach, and is being developed in multiple configurations. Several
MVAD configurations are in preclinical development. The pericardial MVAD configuration is
currently undergoing final Good Laboratory Practices (GLP) in-vivo testing in preparation for a
2012 clinical trial. We believe that the MVAD designs will be implantable by surgical techniques
that are even less invasive than those required to implant the HVAD Pump.
25
Table of Contents
We began generating revenue from our products in August 2008 and have incurred net losses in
each year since our inception. We expect our losses to continue as we advance and expand our
clinical trial activities in the U.S., continue to develop commercial markets outside of the U.S.,
and expand our research and development into next generation products including the MVAD.
We have financed our operations primarily through the issuance of convertible notes and the
issuance of shares of our common stock. Most recently, on December 15, 2010, we issued convertible
notes with an aggregate principal amount of $143.75 million pursuant to the terms of an Indenture
dated as of December 15, 2010. The convertible notes are senior unsecured obligations of the
Company. The convertible notes bear interest at a rate of 3.5% per annum, payable semi-annually in
arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year, beginning on June 15, 2011. The convertible notes
will mature on December 15, 2017, unless earlier repurchased or converted.
We are headquartered in Framingham, Massachusetts. We have an operations and manufacturing
facility in Miami Lakes, Florida, a small development and operations facility in Sydney, Australia
and a small distribution and customer service facility in Hannover, Germany.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
We prepare our financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States. We are required to adopt various accounting policies and to make
estimates and assumptions in preparing our financial statements that affect the reported amounts of
our assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses. Our significant accounting policies are disclosed in
Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 (2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K) filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission on February 24, 2011. Our most critical accounting policies and estimates
include: revenue recognition, inventory capitalization, accounting for share-based compensation,
measurement of fair value, income taxes and reserves. We also have other key accounting policies
that are less subjective and, therefore, their application would not have a material impact on our
reported results of operations. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and assumptions. We
base our estimates on historical experience to the extent practicable and on various other
assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances and at the time they are made.
If our assumptions prove inaccurate or if our future results are not consistent with our historical
experience, we may be required to make adjustments in our policies that affect our reported
results. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates from
the information provided in Part II, Item 7, Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations included in our 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Results of Operations
Three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010
Revenues, net
In the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, we generated revenue from commercial
sales outside of the U.S. and sales in connection with our clinical trials in the U.S. The increase
in revenue from the the comparable periods in 2010, is due to increased implants in the U.S., as we
have two studies on-going as compared to one in 2010, and increased market penetration outside of
the U.S.

Table of Contents
For the three months ended June 30, 2011, approximately 69% of our product sales were
derived from commercial sales outside of the United States, predominantly in Europe, compared to
approximately 81% for the three months ended June 30, 2010.
For the six months ended June 30, 2011, approximately 68% of our product sales were derived
from commercial sales outside of the United States, predominantly in Europe, compared to
approximately 78% for the six months ended June 30, 2010.
We operate in multiple currencies outside of the US, with the majority of our international
revenue denominated in Euro. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, our net
international revenue increased $6.3 million, or 80%, and $10.3 million, or 65%, respectively,
as compared to the same periods in the prior year. The change in exchange rates for all foreign
currencies for the three and six months ended accounted for approximately $1.4 million of the increase
in each period.
We expect to continue to generate and grow commercial revenue from product sales as we
further expand our sales and marketing efforts outside of the United States, continue implanting in
the U.S. under a CAP for our bridge-to-transplant clinical trial, and increase the number of
implants in our destination therapy clinical trial, ENDURANCE, in the U.S. Notwithstanding our
plans to generally expand our U.S. clinical programs, revenues from U.S. sources in connection with
our trials may vary from quarter to quarter as the recruitment of qualified patients that meet
protocol criteria fluctuate and additional CAP cohorts are subject to FDA approval.
Future product sales are dependent on many factors, including receiving and maintaining the
necessary regulatory approvals in the U.S. and internationally, perception of product performance
and market acceptance among physicians, patients, health care payers and the medical community as
well as our capacity to meet customer demand by manufacturing sufficient quantities of our
products.
Cost of Revenues
Cost of revenues includes costs associated with manufacturing our product and consists of
direct materials, labor and overheard expenses allocated to the manufacturing process. Cost of
revenues totaled approximately $7.9 million and $4.3 million in the three months ended June 30,
2011 and 2010, respectively. Cost of revenues totaled approximately $15.5 million and $10.0 million
in the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
Gross profit and gross margin percentage are as follows:

Gross margin percentage for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 increased compared to
the same periods in 2010 as a result of lower per unit costs in 2011 primarily due to increased
production volume and improved efficiencies in our manufacturing processes. In addition, gross
margin for the six months ended June 30, 2010 was impacted by costs incurred in connection with the
voluntary field corrective action we initiated in April 2010. The total cost of the repairs and
replacements was approximately $411,000. The action was taken as a result of a limited number of
reported issues related to the audio volume of alarm notifications and resulted in the repair or
replacement of controllers in inventory, including controllers held on consignment at customer
sites, and units previously distributed through clinical trials or sold to customers.
Selling, General and Administrative
Selling, general and administrative expenses include costs associated with selling and
marketing our products and the general corporate administration of the Company. These costs are
primarily related to salaries and wages and related employee costs, depreciation of fixed assets,
travel, external consultants and contractors, legal and accounting fees and general infrastructure
costs, and include all operating costs not associated with or otherwise classified as research and
development costs or cost of revenues.

Table of Contents
The increase of $2.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to
three months ended June 30, 2010 was primarily a result of an increase in employee costs, including
salaries and wages and related costs, of approximately $1.4 million, primarily due to increased
headcount to build our sales and marketing and administrative functions to support expected future
growth. We also experienced increases in marketing expenses of $617,000, office expenses of
$540,000, travel expenses of $482,000 and legal costs of $172,000. These increases were partially
offset by a decrease in share-based compensation expense of approximately $1.4 million. The
decrease in share-based compensation expense is due to the recognition of approximately $2.1
million of share-based compensation expense in the second quarter of 2010 related to a grant with a
vesting period that would have begun in September 2009 but was subject to stockholder approval.
Approval was obtained at our annual meeting of stockholders in the second quarter of 2010 resulting
in a true-up of share-based compensation expense to coincide with the vesting period.
The increase of $6.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was primarily a result of
an increase in employee costs, including salaries and wages and related costs, of approximately
$2.7 million, primarily due to increased headcount. We also experienced increases in office
expenses of $1.1 million, travel expenses of $1.1 million, marketing expenses of $828,000 and legal
costs of $542,000. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in share-based compensation
expense of approximately $827,000.
We expect our selling, general and administrative expenses to increase significantly in 2011
compared to 2010 as we continue to expand our sales and distribution capabilities as well as our
administrative capabilities to support our overall corporate growth. We have and will continue to
experience an increase in our employee headcount as well as an increase in costs associated with
the necessary administrative infrastructure to support this expansion.
Research and Development
Research and development expenses are the direct and indirect costs associated with developing
our products prior to commercialization and are expensed as incurred. These expenses fluctuate
based on project level activity and consist primarily of salaries and wages and related employee
costs of our research and development and clinical and regulatory staff, external research and
development costs, and materials and expenses associated with clinical trials. Additional costs
include travel, facilities and overhead allocations.

The increase for the three months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to the three months
ended June 30, 2010 was primarily due to an aggregate increase in costs associated with development
projects, including animal studies, outside engineering, consumables, consultants and contractors,
of $2.3 million, primarily related to MVAD development. We also experienced an increase in employee
costs, including salaries and wages and related costs, of approximately $836,000 and an increase in
non-cash share-based compensation of $271,000. These increases were partially offset by a decrease
in costs associated with our U.S. clinical trials of $734,000, which have decreased subsequent to
completion of enrollment of our BTT trial, with the exception of ongoing limited enrollment under a
CAP.
28
Table of Contents
The increase for the six months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to the six months ended June
30, 2010 was primarily due to an increase in costs associated with development projects, including
animal studies, outside engineering, consumables, consultants and contractors, of $4.2 million,
primarily related to MVAD development. We also experienced an increase in employee costs, including
salaries and wages and related costs, of approximately $1.5 million and an increase in share-based
compensation of $621,000. Costs associated with our U.S. clinical trials increased by $275,000.
Even with commercial approval of the HeartWare System in Europe, we expect that research and
development expenses will continue to represent a significant portion of our operating expenses for
the foreseeable future related to clinical trials in the U.S. and new product development,
including costs related to the development of the MVAD.
Foreign Exchange
We generate a substantial portion of our revenues and collect receivables in foreign
currencies. Fluctuations in the exchange rate of the U.S. dollar against the Euro, British Pound
and Australian dollar can result in foreign currency exchange gains and losses that may
significantly impact our financial results. Continued fluctuation of these exchange rates could
result in financial results that are not comparable from quarter to quarter. As discussed in Note
5, we entered into a foreign currency forward-exchange contract related to an asset purchase
commitment by our Australian subsidiary. The purchase is denominated in a currency in which we do
not normally transact business. Notwithstanding the aforementioned foreign currency
forward-exchange contract, we do not currently utilize foreign currency contracts to mitigate
foreign exchange gains and losses.
Net foreign exchange gains totaled approximately $134,000 and $726,000 in the three and
six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, compared to net losses of approximately $406,000 and
$774,000 in the same periods of 2010. In 2011 and 2010, the majority of our realized and unrealized
foreign exchange gains and losses were experienced upon the collection of certain accounts
receivable that were denominated in foreign currencies, and the translation to U.S. dollars of
customer accounts receivable denominated in foreign currencies at period end, primarily the Euro.
We expect to continue realizing foreign exchange gains and losses for the foreseeable future as the
majority of our sales denominated in foreign currencies are settled in Euros.
Interest Expense
Interest expense in 2011 consists of interest incurred on the principal amount of our
convertible senior notes issued in December 2010, amortization of the related discount and
amortization of the portion of the deferred financing costs allocated to the debt component. The
convertible senior notes bear interest at a rate of 3.5% per annum. The discount on the convertible
senior notes and the deferred financing costs are being amortized to interest expense through the
December 15, 2017 maturity date of the convertible senior notes using the effective interest
method.
Interest expense was approximately $2.65 million in the three months ended June 30, 2011.
Interest incurred on the principal amount of the convertible notes at the 3.5% coupon rate was
approximately $1.26 million and non-cash amortization of the discount and deferred financing costs
totaled approximately $1.39 million.
Interest expense was approximately $5.25 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011.
Interest incurred on the principal amount of the convertible notes at the 3.5% coupon rate was
approximately $2.51 million and non-cash amortization of the discount and deferred financing costs
totaled approximately $2.74 million.
Investment Income, net
Investment income is primarily derived from investments and cash and short-term deposit
accounts held in the U.S. The amortization of premium on our investments is also included in
investment income, net. Investment income, net was approximately $128,000 and $295,000 in the three
and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, compared to $161,000 and $273,000 in the
same periods in the prior year. While we have had greater cash and investments balances during 2011
as a result of the issuance of our convertible senior notes in December 2010, we have experienced
lower interest rates in 2011 compared to 2010.

Income Taxes
We are subject to taxation in the United States and jurisdictions outside of the United
States. These jurisdictions have different marginal tax rates. While we have incurred losses since
inception, changes in issued capital and share ownership, as well as other factors, may limit our
ability to utilize any net operating loss carry-forwards, and as such a 100% valuation allowance
has been recorded against our net deferred tax assets.
As of June 30, 2011, we did not have revenues or profit which would be sufficient to allow any
portion of our deferred tax assets to be recorded. We intend to monitor closely whether to record a
deferred tax asset as we further expand the commercialization of our products.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of June 30, 2011, our cash and cash equivalents were approximately $118.8 million as
compared to $192.1 million at December 31, 2010. The decrease is primarily a result of cash used to
support our operating and investing activities and the purchase of short-term investments,
partially offset by cash proceeds from the exercise of stock options.
Following is a summary of our cash flow activities:

Cash Used in Operating Activities
For the six months ended June 30, 2011, cash used in operating activities included a net loss
of approximately $19.5 million and non-cash adjustments to net loss totaling approximately $11.0
million, which primarily consisted of $6.4 million of share-based compensation, $2.6 million for
the amortization of the discount on our convertible notes and $1.1 million of depreciation and
amortization. Also included in cash used in operating activities in the six months ended June 30,
2011 is approximately $7.5 million for the purchase and manufacture of inventories, $2.2 million
for prepaid expenses and $555,000 for payment of trade accounts payable. These amounts were
partially offset by net collections of trade accounts receivable of $3.5 million and an increase in
accrued expenses of $1.3 million.
For the six months ended June 30, 2010, cash used in operating activities included a net loss
of approximately $14.5 million, non-cash adjustments to net loss of approximately $7.1 million and
changes in assets and liabilities of $1.8 million. Non-cash adjustments primarily consisted of
share-based compensation of approximately $6.0 million and $628,000 of depreciation and
amortization. Changes in assets and liabilities included a use of cash of approximately $6.8
million for the purchase and manufacture of inventories partially offset by $3.5 million in
accounts receivable collections.

Cash Used in Investing Activities
In the six months ended June 30, 2011, net cash used for the purchase (net of maturities in
2011) of available-for sale securities was $55.1 million compared to $16.6 million in the six
months ended June 30, 2010. Other investing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2011 and
2010 used cash of approximately $4.9 million and $2.8 million, respectively. These amounts were
expended to acquire property, plant and equipment and for capitalized patent costs.
Cash Provided by Financing Activities
In February 2010, we completed a public offering of approximately 1.77 million shares of our
common stock, including the underwriters exercise of their over-allotment option to purchase
230,595 shares, at an offering price of $35.50 per share for aggregate gross proceeds of
approximately $62.8 million. After fees and expenses, net proceeds from the offering were
approximately $58.5 million. The offering was completed pursuant to a prospectus supplement, dated
January 27, 2010, to a shelf registration statement previously filed with the SEC and which was
declared effective on January 20, 2010. This shelf registration statement allows us to offer and
sell from time to time, in one or more series or issuances and on terms that we will determine at
the time of the offering, any combination of the securities described in the prospectus, up to an
aggregate amount of $100 million.
The exercise of stock options in the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 resulted in cash
proceeds of approximately $600,000 and $2.8 million, respectively.
Operating Capital and Capital Expenditure Requirements
We have incurred operating losses to date and anticipate that we will continue to incur
substantial net losses as we expand our sales and marketing capabilities, develop new products and
seek regulatory approvals for the HeartWare System in the U.S. For the remainder of 2011, cash on
hand is expected to primarily be used to fund our ongoing operations, including;
| expanding our sales and marketing capabilities on a global basis, |
| continuing implants in the U.S. under a CAP and in our U.S. destination therapy clinical study, |
| continued product development, |
| regulatory activities, including PMA submissions and testing, and other compliance functions, and |
| general working capital. |
We expect to experience increased cash requirements for inventory and property related to the
expansion of our manufacturing capabilities, including the build-out our new manufacturing facility
located in Miami Lakes, Florida, to support continued growth.
Our convertible notes bear interest at a rate of 3.5% per annum, payable semi-annually in
arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year, beginning on June 15, 2011. During the quarter
ended June 30, 2011 we paid the $2.5 million interest payment that was due on June 15, 2011. Based
on the outstanding principal amount of our convertible senior notes at June 30, 2011, the
semi-annual interest payment due on December 15, 2011 will be approximately $2.5 million. This
amount is expected to be paid from cash on hand.
We believe cash on hand and investment balances as of June 30, 2011 are sufficient to support
our planned operations throughout 2011 and 2012.

Because of the numerous risks and uncertainties associated with the development of medical
devices and the current economic situation, we are unable to estimate the exact amounts of capital
outlays and operating expenditures necessary to obtain regulatory approvals in the U.S., fund
commercial expansion outside of the U.S. and develop new products. Our future capital requirements
will depend on many factors, including but not limited to the following:
| commercial acceptance of our products; |
| costs to manufacture our products; |
| expenses required to operate multiple clinical trials; |
| further product research and development for next generation products and peripherals and expanding indications for our products as well as efforts to sustain and maintain incremental improvements to existing products; |
| expanding our sales and marketing capabilities on a global basis, including building a team to support U.S. commercialization should the FDA approve our device for marketing in the U.S.; |
| broadening our infrastructure in order to meet the needs of our growing operations; and |
| complying with the requirements related to being a public company in both the United States and Australia. |
Contractual Obligations
As of January 15, 2011, we entered into a Public, Private Partnership Agreement with the
Regents of the University of Michigan whereby HeartWare, Inc. will act as industry sponsor of a
study conducted by University of Michigan Cardiovascular Center and the University of Pittsburgh
exploring the potential benefits of LVADs in patients who will be given earlier access to these
devices under a grant awarded from the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute. In the study,
called REVIVE-IT, researchers will compare whether non-transplant eligible patients with heart
failure less advanced than that of current LVAD recipients do better with implanted devices than
with current medical therapy. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, we have committed to provide
financial support up to $9.6 million over the five-year term of the agreement.
Other than the financial commitment discussed above, in the six months ended June 30, 2011,
there were no material changes to our contractual obligations provided in Part II, Item 7,
Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in
our 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 24, 2011, outside the ordinary
course of business.

ITEM 3. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK |
Market risk represents the risk of changes in the value of market risk sensitive instruments
caused by fluctuations in interest rates, foreign exchange rates and commodity prices. Changes in
these factors could cause fluctuations in our results of operations and cash flows.
Interest Rate Risk
Our exposure to interest rate risk is currently confined to interest earnings on our cash and
cash equivalents that are invested in highly liquid money market funds, short-term time deposits,
short-term bank notes and short-term commercial paper. The primary objective of our investment
activities is to preserve our capital to fund operations. We also seek to maximize income from our
investments without assuming significant risk. We do not presently use derivative financial
instruments in our investment portfolio. Our cash and investments policy emphasizes liquidity and
preservation of principal over other portfolio considerations.
Our convertible senior notes do not bear interest rate risk as the notes were issued with a
fixed interest rate of 3.5% per annum.
Foreign Currency Rate Fluctuations
We conduct business in foreign countries. For U.S. reporting purposes, we translate all assets
and liabilities of our non-U.S. entities at the period-end exchange rate and revenues and expenses
at the average exchange rates in effect during the periods. The net effect of these translation
adjustments is shown in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements as a component
of stockholders equity.
We generate a substantial portion of our revenues and collect receivables in foreign
currencies. Fluctuations in the exchange rate of the U.S. dollar against the Euro, British Pound
and Australian dollar can result in foreign currency exchange gains and losses that may
significantly impact our financial results. These foreign currency transaction gains and losses are
presented as a separate line item on our consolidated statements of operations. Continued
fluctuation of these exchange rates could result in financial results that are not comparable from
quarter to quarter. We do not currently utilize foreign currency contracts to mitigate the gains
and losses generated by the remeasurement of non-functional currency assets and liabilities but do
hold cash reserves in currencies in which those reserves are anticipated to be expended.
ITEM 4. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES |
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer, carried out an evaluation required by the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
Exchange Act), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and
procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act, as of June 30, 2011. Based on this
evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of June 30,
2011, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that
information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange
Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SECs
rules and forms and to provide reasonable assurance that such information is accumulated and
communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer,
as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

Table of Contents
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during the three
months ended June 30, 2011 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially
affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Inherent Limitations on Controls and Procedures
Our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not
expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting
will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated,
can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control systems objectives will be
met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource
constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of
the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute
assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. Thus,
misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. These inherent limitations
include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can
occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the
individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of
controls.

ITEM 2. | UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS |
On February 2, 2010, we completed an underwritten public offering of 1,767,900 shares of our
common stock (including 230,595 shares issued as a result of the full exercise of an overallotment
option by the underwriter) at a price to the public of $35.50 per share, or an aggregate offering
price of $62.8 million. The offer and sales of the shares in the offering were registered under the
Securities Act of 1933 pursuant to a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No.
333-164004), which became effective on January 20, 2010 and which registered up to $100 million of
our common stock.
We raised approximately $58.5 million in the offering, after deducting underwriting
discounts and commissions of $3.8 million and other estimated offering costs of $470,000. No
payments were made by us to our directors, officers or persons owning ten percent or more of our
common stock or to their associates, or to our affiliates. Through June 30, 2011, we have used
approximately $43.5 million of the net proceeds of the offering, including approximately $13.6
million for the purchase of inventories, approximately $21.2 million for general working capital
and approximately $8.7 million for purchases of property, plant and equipment.
