Notes
to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
1. Background and Basis of Presentation
Opnext, Inc. and subsidiaries (which may be referred to in these financial statements as
OPI, Opnext, the Company, we, us, or our) is a leading designer and manufacturer of
optical subsystems, modules and components that enable high-speed telecommunications and data
communications networks, as well as lasers and infrared
light-emitting diodes (LEDs) for industrial and commercial
applications.
The financial information for the Company as of June 30, 2011, and for the three-month periods
ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, is unaudited and includes all normal and recurring adjustments that
management considers necessary for a fair statement of the financial information set forth herein
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and
rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Accordingly, such
information does not include all of the information and footnotes required under generally accepted
accounting principles in the United States (GAAP) for annual financial statements. For further
information, please refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included
in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2011, filed on June
14, 2011, as amended.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Revenue Recognition
Revenue is derived principally from sales of products and is recognized when persuasive
evidence of an arrangement exists, usually in the form of a purchase order, delivery has occurred
or services have been rendered, title and risk of loss have passed to the customer, the price is
fixed or determinable and collection is reasonably assured based on the creditworthiness of the
customer and certainty of customer acceptance. These conditions generally exist upon shipment or
upon notice from certain customers in Japan that they have completed their inspection and have
accepted the product.
The Company participates in vendor managed inventory (VMI) programs with certain customers
whereby the Company maintains an agreed upon quantity of certain products at a customer-designated
warehouse. Revenue pursuant to the VMI programs is recognized when the products are physically
pulled by the customer, or its designated contract manufacturer, and put into production in the
manufacture of the customers product. Simultaneous with the inventory pulls, purchase orders are
received from the customer, or its designated contract manufacturer, as evidence that a purchase
request and delivery have occurred and that title and risk of loss have passed to the customer at a
previously agreed upon price.
Warranties
The Company sells certain of its products to customers with a product warranty that provides
for repairs at no cost to the customer or the issuance of a credit to the customer. The length of
the warranty term depends on the product being sold, but generally ranges from one year to five
years. In addition to accruing for specific known warranty exposures, the Company accrues its
estimated exposure to warranty claims based upon historical claim costs as a percentage of sales
multiplied by prior sales still under warranty at the end of any period. Management reviews these
estimates on a regular basis and adjusts the warranty provisions as actual experience differs from
historical estimates or other information becomes available.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for trade receivables, trade
payables, accrued expenses and short-term debt approximate fair value
due to their immediate to
short-term maturity.
Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is defined as an exit price, representing the price that would be received to sell
an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants
based on the highest and best use of the asset or liability. The Company uses valuation techniques
to measure fair value that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of
unobservable inputs. Observable inputs are inputs that market participants would use in pricing the
asset or liability and are based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company.
Unobservable inputs reflect assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or
liability based on the best information available in the circumstances. The hierarchy is broken
down into three levels based on the reliability of inputs as follows:
6
Table of Contents
| Level 1Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access. Valuation adjustments and block discounts are not applied to Level 1 assets or liabilities. Because valuations are based on quoted prices that are readily and regularly available in an active market, valuation of these assets or liabilities does not entail a significant degree of judgment. | ||
| Level 2Valuations based on quoted prices in markets that are not active or for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly. Valuations for Level 2 assets or liabilities are prepared on an individual asset or liability basis using data obtained from recent transactions for identical assets or liabilities in inactive markets or pricing data for similar assets or liabilities in active and inactive markets. | ||
| Level 3Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. |
As of June 30 and March 31, 2011, the Company had $59.6 million of money market funds
classified as cash and cash equivalents that were recorded at fair value based on Level 1 quoted
market prices. At June 30, 2011, the Company had four forward foreign currency exchange contracts
in place with an aggregate nominal value of $18.0 million classified in other current assets
recorded at a fair value of $0.4 million and at March 31, 2011 the Company had three forward
foreign currency exchange contracts in place with an aggregate nominal value of $18.0 million
classified in accrued expenses recorded at a fair value of $0.3 million, based on Level 2 inputs
that primarily consisted of foreign currency spot and forward rates quoted by banks or foreign
currency dealers. The Company utilizes forward contracts to mitigate foreign exchange currency risk
between the Japanese yen and the U.S. dollar on forecasted intercompany sales transactions between
its subsidiary units. These foreign currency exchange forward contracts generally have expiration
dates of 120 days or less to hedge a portion of this future risk and the notional value of the
contracts did not exceed $24.0 million in aggregate at any point in time during the three-month
period ended June 30, 2011. For the three-month period ended June 30, 2010, total realized benefits
of $0.1 million were recorded on the foreign currency exchange forward contracts and were included
in cost of goods sold. The Company does not enter into foreign currency exchange forward contracts
for trading purposes, but rather as a hedging vehicle to minimize the effect of foreign currency
fluctuations.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2011, the FASB issued guidance on the presentation of total comprehensive income, the
components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income. This guidance is
intended to improve the comparability, consistency, and transparency of financial reporting and to
increase the prominence of items reported in other comprehensive income. The guidance is effective
for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. The
Company does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a
material impact on its Consolidated
Financial Statements.
3. Restructuring Charges
On
March 31, 2009, in connection with the restructuring subsequent
to the acquisition of StrataLight Communications, Inc.
(StrataLight) the Company recorded liabilities of $1.1 million, which included severance and
related benefit charges of approximately $0.3 million resulting from workforce reductions across the Company and
facility charges of approximately $0.7 million for the Eatontown, New Jersey location in connection with the
relocation of the Companys headquarters to Fremont, California.
As of June 30, 2011, the Company had no recorded liabilities related to the facility
consolidation and no recorded liabilities related to workforce reduction. As of March 31, 2011, the
Company had no recorded liabilities related to workforce reduction and recorded liabilities related
to facility consolidation charges of $0.2 million. The Companys accrual for and the change in its
restructuring charges for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, were as follows:

Sale of Technology Assets
On
February 9, 2011, Opnext Subsystems, Inc., our wholly owned subsidiary (Opnext
Subsystems), entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the Purchase Agreement) with Juniper
Networks, Inc. (Juniper) to sell certain technology related to modem Application Specific
Integrated Circuits used for long haul/ultra-long optical transmission to Juniper for $26.0
million (the Purchase Price), $23.5

Table of Contents
million of which was paid simultaneously with the
execution of the Purchase Agreement and $2.5 million of which
was paid on May 6, 2011. The
Company incurred $2.1 million and $0.4 million of direct expenses in connection with the payments
received on February 9, 2011 and May 6, 2011, respectively. Juniper has assumed all liabilities
to the extent arising out of or related to the ownership, use and operation of this technology
following the sale.
7. Income Taxes
During
the three-month period ended June 30, 2011, the Company recorded
$0.1 million of current
income tax expense attributable to income earned in certain foreign tax jurisdictions and certain
state tax jurisdictions. For those jurisdictions in which the Company generated operating losses,
the Company recorded a valuation allowance to offset potential income tax benefits associated with
these operating losses.
During
the three-month period ended June 30, 2010, the Company had
insignificant of current
income tax expense attributable to income earned in certain foreign and state tax jurisdictions. In
other profitable tax jurisdictions, the Company did not record income tax expense as the income tax
benefits of prior operating losses were used to offset any potential income tax expense. For those
jurisdictions in which the Company generated operating losses, the Company recorded a valuation
allowance to offset potential income tax benefits associated with these operating losses.
Because of the uncertainty regarding the timing and extent of future profitability, the
Company has recorded a valuation allowance to offset potential income tax benefits associated with
operating losses and other net deferred tax assets. There can be no assurance that deferred tax
assets subject to the valuation allowance will ever be realized.
As of June 30, 2011, the Company did not have any material unrecognized tax benefits, and the
Company does not anticipate that its unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change within the
next 12 months. The Company recognizes interest and penalties on unrecognized tax benefits as
components of income tax expense. The Company did not have any accrued interest or penalties
associated with any unrecognized tax benefits as of June 30 and March 31, 2011.
The Company is subject to taxation in the United States, Japan and various state, local and
other foreign jurisdictions. The Companys U.S. income tax returns have been examined by the
Internal Revenue Service through the fiscal year ended March 31, 2008. The Companys New Jersey
corporate business tax returns and German tax returns have been examined by the respective tax
authorities through the fiscal year ended March 31, 2007. The Companys Japan tax returns have been
examined by the Japan tax authorities through the fiscal year ended March 31, 2006.
The Internal Revenue Service is currently examining StrataLights 2008 U.S. income tax return
and the State of Texas is currently examining
StrataLights 2008 Texas Franchise Tax Report. As of June 30, 2011, no material adjustments had been
proposed.
8. Stockholders Equity
Common and Preferred Stock
The Company is authorized to issue 150 million shares of $0.01 par value common stock and 15
million shares of $0.01 par value preferred stock. Each share of the Companys common stock
entitles the holder to one vote on all matters to be voted upon by the shareholders. The board of
directors has the authority to issue preferred stock in one or more classes or series and to fix
the designations, powers, preferences and rights and qualifications, limitations or restrictions
thereof, including the dividend rights, dividend rates, conversion rights, voting rights, terms of
redemption, redemption prices, liquidation preferences and the number of shares constituting any
class or series, without further vote or action by the stockholders. As of June 30, 2011, no shares
of preferred stock had been issued.
On May 23, 2011, the Company repurchased 51,000 shares of common stock at a cost of $2.86 per
share in connection with the payment of the tax withholding
obligation related to the issuance of stock
bonus awards to certain employees. These shares were recorded at cost.
Rights Agreement
On June 18, 2009, the Companys board of directors adopted a shareholder rights plan (the
Rights Plan) designed to protect the Companys net operating loss carryforwards and other related
tax attributes (NOLs) that the board of directors considered to be a valuable asset that could be
used to reduce future potential federal and state income tax obligations. The rights were designed
to deter stock
accumulations made without prior approval from the Companys board of directors that would trigger
an ownership change, as that term is defined in Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended (the Code), with the result of limiting the availability for future use of the NOLs to
the Company. The Rights Plan was not adopted in response to any known accumulation of shares of the
Companys stock.
On June 22, 2009, the Company distributed a dividend of one preferred stock purchase right on
each outstanding share of the Companys common stock to holders of record on such date. Subject to
limited exceptions, the rights will be exercisable if a person or group acquires 4.99% or more of
the Companys common stock or announces a tender offer for 4.99% or more of the common stock.

Table of Contents
Under
certain circumstances, each right will entitle stockholders to buy one one-hundredth of a share of
newly created series A junior participating preferred stock of the Company at an exercise price of
$17.00. The Companys board of directors is entitled to redeem the rights at a price of $0.01 per
right at any time before a person has acquired 4.99% or more of the outstanding common stock.
The Rights Plan includes a procedure whereby the board of directors will consider requests to
exempt certain proposed acquisitions of common stock from the applicable ownership trigger if the
board of directors determines that the requested acquisition will not limit or impair the
availability of future use of the NOLs to the Company. The rights will expire on June 22, 2012 or
earlier, upon the closing of a merger or acquisition transaction that is approved by the board of
directors prior to the time at which a person or group acquires 4.99% or more of the Companys
common stock or announces a tender offer for 4.99% or more of the common stock, or if the board of
directors determines that the NOLs have been fully utilized or are no longer available under
Section 382 of the Code.
If a person acquires 4.99% or more of the outstanding common stock of the Company, each right
will entitle the right holder to purchase, at the rights then-current exercise price, a number of
shares of common stock having a market value at that time of twice the rights exercise price. The
person who acquired 4.99% or more of the outstanding common stock of the Company is referred to as
the acquiring person. Existing stockholders of the Company who already own 4.99% or more of the
Companys common stock would only be an acquiring person if they acquired additional shares of
common stock. Rights held by the acquiring person will become void and will not be exercisable. If
the Company is acquired in a merger or other business combination transaction that has not been
approved by the Companys board of directors, each right will entitle its holder to purchase, at
the rights then-current exercise price, a number of shares of the acquiring companys common stock
having a market value at that time of twice the rights exercise price.
On February 8, 2010, Marubeni Corporation filed a Schedule 13G/A reporting events that, when
taken together with other changes in ownership of the Companys common stock by its five percent or
greater stockholders during the prior three-year period, constituted an ownership change for the
Company as such term is defined in Section 382 of the Code, with the result of limiting the
availability of the Companys NOLs for future use.

11. Employee Benefits
The Company sponsors the Opnext, Inc. 401(k) Plan (the Plan) to provide retirement benefits
for its U.S. employees. As allowed under Section 401(k) of the Code, the Plan provides tax-deferred
salary deductions for eligible employees. Employees may contribute from one percent to 60 percent
of their annual compensation to the Plan, subject to an annual limit as set periodically by the
Internal Revenue Service. The Company generally matches employee contributions at
a ratio of two-thirds of one dollar for each dollar an employee contributed up to a maximum of
two-thirds of the first six percent of compensation an employee contributed. All matching
contributions vest immediately. The Companys matching contributions to the Plan totaled $0.2
million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2011. The
Company suspended its matching contributions during the fiscal years
ended March 31, 2010 and 2011 and, thus, the Company made no matching contribution
to the Plan for the three-month period ended June 30, 2010. In addition, the Plan provides for
discretionary contributions as determined by the board of directors. Such contributions to the
Plan, if made, are allocated among eligible participants in the proportion of their salaries to the
total salaries of all participants. No discretionary contributions were made in the three-month
periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010.
The Company sponsors a defined contribution plan and a defined benefit plan to provide
retirement benefits for its employees in Japan. Under the defined contribution plan, contributions
are provided based on grade level and totaled $0.2 million for
each of the three-month periods ended June
30, 2011 and 2010. The employee can elect to receive the benefit as additional salary or contribute
the benefit to the plan on a tax-deferred basis.
Under the defined benefit plan, the Company calculates benefits based on an employees
individual grade level and years of service. Employees are entitled to a lump sum benefit upon
retirement or upon certain instances of termination. As of June 30 and March 31, 2011, there were
no plan assets. Net periodic benefit costs for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010

12. Stock-Based Incentive Plans
The
Companys Second Amended and Restated 2001 Long-Term Stock
Incentive Plan, as amended provides for the
grant of restricted common shares, restricted stock units, stock options and stock appreciation
rights to eligible employees, consultants and directors of the Company and its affiliates. As of
June 30, 2011, this plan had 12.6 million shares of common stock available for future grants.
Restricted Stock
Restricted stock units represent the right to receive a share of Opnext stock at a designated
time in the future, provided that the stock unit is vested at the time. Restricted stock units
granted to non-employee directors generally vest over a one-year period from the grant date. The
restricted stock units are convertible into common shares on a one-for-one basis on or within 15
days following the earliest to occur of the date of the directors separation from service, the
date of the directors death or the date of a change in control of the Company. Recipients of
restricted stock units do not pay any cash consideration for the restricted stock units or the
underlying shares and do not have the right to vote or any other rights of a shareholder until such
time as the underlying shares of stock are distributed.

Employee Incentive Award Program
On June 29, 2011, the compensation committee (the Committee) of the board of
directors of the Company approved an annual incentive award program (the Program) for the
Companys fiscal year ending March 31, 2012. The Program provides for the payment of fully
vested shares of the Companys common stock under the Opnext, Inc. Second Amended and
Restated 2001 Long-Term Stock Incentive Plan, as amended, based upon the achievement of
pre-established corporate and/or individual performance objectives established by the
Committee. The Program is in lieu of an annual cash bonus opportunity for participants in
the Program for the Companys fiscal year ending March 31, 2012 and will be administered by
the Committee.
Employees of the Company at specified grade levels, including the Companys executive
officers, are eligible to participate in the Program. The individual performance objectives relate
to certain functional goals established by the Committee based on the recipients position within
the Company, and include, without limitation, goals relating to product delivery and support,
organizational and leadership development, market position, operational and departmental
objectives, financial and strategic objectives, and supplier related objectives. The Company
performance objectives relate to the Companys achievement of a minimum level of operating income
and, for certain recipients, the achievement of other financial goals established for the Company
or particular business units of the Company, including, without limitation, contribution margin,
inventory management and other operational objectives. The achievement of any performance
objectives will be determined by the Committee in its sole discretion. An employees right to
receive a stock bonus under the Program is subject to and conditioned on his or her active
employment with the Company in good standing on the date on which the shares related to such stock
bonus are issued. Any payments under the Program are expected to be made following the first
regularly scheduled meeting of the Committee that occurs after the close of the Companys fiscal
year ending March 31, 2012 in accordance with the Companys equity grant policies.
Compensation expense associated with the Program for the three-month period ended June 30,
2011 was $0.3 million. At June 30, 2011, $0.9 million of additional compensation expense was
anticipated to be recorded over the remainder of the fiscal year ending March 31, 2012.
Stock Options
Stock option awards to employees generally become exercisable with respect to one-quarter or
one-third of the shares awarded on each one-year anniversary of the date of grant and generally
have a ten- or seven-year life. At June 30 and March 31, 2011, the Company had 1,010,000 and
1,000,000 outstanding options that were granted to Hitachi Ltd.
(Hitachi) and Clarity Partners, L.P.,
respectively, in connection with the appointment of their employees as directors of the Company.
The non-employee options expire ten years from the grant date and were fully vested as of November
2004. Accordingly, no costs were incurred in connection with non-employee options during the
three-month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes
option valuation and the assumptions noted in the following table:

compensation costs related to unvested stock option awards granted under the Companys stock-based
incentive plan but not recognized was $8.6 million and will be recognized over the remaining
weighted average vesting period of approximately two years. The weighted average fair value of

On March 27, 2008, Furukawa Electric Co. (Furukawa) filed a complaint against Opnext Japan,
Inc., the Companys wholly owned subsidiary (OPJ or Opnext Japan), in the Tokyo District Court, alleging
that certain laser diode modules sold by Opnext Japan infringe Furukawas Japanese Patent No. 2,898,643 (the
Furukawa Patent). The complaint sought an injunction as well as 300.0 million yen in royalty
damages. Opnext Japan filed its answer on May 7, 2008 stating therein its belief that it does not
infringe the Furukawa Patent and that the Furukawa Patent is invalid. On February 24, 2010, the
Tokyo District Court entered judgment in favor of Opnext Japan, which judgment was appealed by
Furukawa to the Intellectual Property High Court on March 9, 2010. The Company intends to defend
itself vigorously in this litigation and is unable to estimate the potential loss that could
result.
On May 27, 2011, Opnext Japan filed a complaint against Furukawa in the Tokyo District Court,
alleging that certain laser diode modules sold by Furukawa infringe Opnext Japans Japanese patent
No. 3,887,174. Opnext Japan is seeking an injunction as well as damages in the amount of 100.0
million yen.

and notes for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2011, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K
filed with the SEC on June 14, 2011.
Overview and Background
We were incorporated as a wholly owned subsidiary of Hitachi, Ltd., or Hitachi, in September
of 2000. In July of 2001, Clarity Partners, L.P. and related investment vehicles invested in us and
we became a majority owned subsidiary of Hitachi. In October 2002, we acquired Hitachis opto
device business and expanded our product line into select industrial and commercial markets. In
June 2003, we acquired Pine Photonics Communication Inc. (Pine) and expanded our product line of
SFP transceivers with data rates less than 10Gbps that are sold to telecommunication and data
communication customers. In February 2007, we completed our initial public offering of common stock
on the NASDAQ market. On January 9, 2009, we completed our acquisition of StrataLight
Communications, Inc. (StrataLight), which expanded our product line to include 40Gbps subsystems.
We have sales and marketing offices strategically located in close proximity to our
major customers in the U.S., Europe, Japan and China. We also have research and development
facilities that are co-located with each of our manufacturing facilities in the U.S. and Japan. In
addition, we use contract manufacturers that are located in China, Japan, the Philippines, Taiwan,
Thailand and the U.S. Certain of our contract manufacturers that assemble or produce modules are
strategically located close to our customers contract manufacturing facilities to shorten lead
times and enhance flexibility.
Japan Earthquake and Tsunami
On March 11, 2011, the northeast coast of Japan experienced a severe earthquake followed by a
tsunami, with continuing aftershocks from the earthquake. These geological events caused
significant damage in the region, including severe damage to nuclear power plants, and impacted
Japans power and other infrastructure as well as its economy.
Our industrial and commercial production facility located in Komoro, Japan and our Tokyo sales
office were undamaged by the earthquake and operations at these facilities resumed shortly
following the earthquake. Our module assembly facility in Totsuka, Japan suffered minor disruption from
the earthquake and production at this facility was reinstated on March 21, 2011. While our chip
production facility in Totsuka also suffered minor damage, production at this facility did not
fully resume until mid-April, however, due to the time required to recalibrate and verify the
proper operation of the equipment. While certain of our suppliers located in Japan were also
impacted by the earthquake and tsunami, we were able to obtain alternative sources of supply or
implement other measures.
We were also impacted by power outages in the Totsuka area in April, 2011 and we have
completed the installation of backup power systems to mitigate the impact of any future
interruptions. Notwithstanding our efforts, uncertainty exists with respect to the availability of
electrical power. Thus, there is a risk that we could in the future experience interruptions to our
production or delays or other constraints in obtaining key components and/or price increases
related to such components that could materially adversely affect our financial condition and
operating results.
The
ten-day interruption in our module manufacturing operations resulted in some loss of
revenue in the fiscal quarters ended March 31 and June 30, 2011. Although the value of equipment
and inventory damaged by the earthquake was minimal, we experienced approximately $1.0 million and
$0.2 million of idle capacity costs in the fiscal quarters ended March 31 and June 30, 2011,
respectively.

Sale of Technology Assets
On February 9, 2011, Opnext Subsystems, Inc., our wholly-owned subsidiary (Opnext
Subsystems) entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the Purchase Agreement) with Juniper
Networks, Inc. (Juniper) to sell certain technology related to modem Application Specific
Integrated Circuits used for long haul/ultra-long optical transmission to Juniper for $26 million
(the Purchase Price), $23.5 million of which was paid simultaneously with the execution of the
Purchase Agreement and $2.5 million of which was paid on May 6, 2011. Juniper has assumed all
liabilities to the extent arising out of or related to the ownership, use and operation of this
technology following the sale.
Revenues
Through our direct sales force supported by manufacturer representatives and distributors, we
sell products to many of the leading network systems vendors throughout North America, Europe,
Japan and Asia. Our customers include many of the top telecommunications and data communications
network systems vendors in the world. We also supply components to several major transceiver module
companies and we sell to select industrial and commercial customers. Sales to telecommunication and
data communication customers, our communication sales, accounted for 91.0% and 91.5% of our total
revenues during the three-month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Sales of our
communication products with 10Gbps or lower data rates, which we refer to as our 10Gbps and below
products, represented 54.4% and 70.8% of our total revenues during the three-month periods ended
June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Sales of our communications products with 40Gbps or higher
rates, which we refer to as our 40Gbps and above products, represented 36.6% and 20.7% of our
total revenues during the three-month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The term
sales when used herein in reference to our 40Gbps and above products includes revenues received
pursuant to research and development agreements.
The number of leading network systems vendors that supply the global telecommunications and
data communications markets is concentrated and so, in turn, is our customer base. For the
three-month period ended June 30, 2011, sales to two customers in aggregate, Cisco Systems, Inc.
and subsidiaries (Cisco) and Wuhan FiberHome
Technologies, Ltd., represented 39.6% of our total
revenues. For the three-month period ended June 30, 2010, sales to three customers in aggregate,
Alcatel-Lucent, Cisco and Huawei Technologies Co. Ltd. (Huawei), represented 51.0% of our total
revenues, respectively. Although we continue to attempt to expand our customer base, we anticipate
that a small number of customers will continue to represent a significant portion of our total
revenues.
During the three-month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, sales attributed to the Americas
represented 43.6% and 44.2% of total revenues, sales attributed to Asia Pacific (excluding Japan)
represented 26.6% and 20.7% of total revenues, sales attributed to Europe represented 16.4% and
21.9% of total revenues, and sales attributed to Japan represented 13.4% and 13.2% of total
revenues, respectively.
Because certain sales transactions and the related assets and liabilities are denominated in
currencies other than the U.S. dollar, primarily the Japanese yen, our revenues are exposed to
market risks related to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. For example, for the
three-month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, 13.3% and 13.8% of our sales were denominated in
Japanese yen, respectively. To the extent we continue to generate a significant portion of our
sales in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, our revenues will continue to be affected by
foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations.
Cost of Sales and Gross Margin
Our
cost of sales primarily consists of materials, including components, that are either
assembled at one of our three internal manufacturing facilities or at one of several of our
contract manufacturing partners or procured from third-party vendors. Because of the complexity and
proprietary nature of laser manufacturing, and the advantage of having our internal manufacturing
resources co-located with our research and development staffs, most of the lasers used in our
optical module and component products are manufactured in our facilities in Komoro and Totsuka,
Japan. Our materials include certain parts and components that are purchased from a limited number
of suppliers or, in certain situations, from a single supplier. Our cost of sales also includes
labor costs for employees and contract laborers engaged in the production of our components and the
assembly of our finished goods, outsourcing costs, the cost and related depreciation of
manufacturing equipment, as well as manufacturing overhead costs, including the costs for product
warranty repairs and inventory adjustments for excess and obsolete inventory.
Our cost of sales is exposed to market risks related to fluctuations in foreign currency
exchange rates because a significant portion of our costs and the related assets and liabilities
are denominated in Japanese yen. During the three-month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010,
approximately 36.6% and 41.1%, respectively, of our cost of sales were denominated in Japanese yen.
Our gross margins vary among our product lines and are generally higher on our 40Gbps and
above and longer distance 10Gbps products. Our gross margins are also generally higher on products
where we enjoy a greater degree of vertical integration with respect to the subcomponents of such
products. Our overall gross margins primarily fluctuate as a result of our overall sales volumes,
changes in average selling prices and product mix, the introduction of new products and subsequent
generations of existing products, manufacturing yields, our ability to reduce product costs and
fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. Our gross margins are also impacted by
amortization of acquired developed technology resulting from the acquisition of StrataLight.

Table of Contents
Research and Development Expenses
Research and development expenses consist primarily of salaries and benefits of personnel
related to the design, development and quality testing of new products or enhancement of existing
products, as well as outsourced services provided by Hitachis research laboratories pursuant to
our contractual agreements. We incurred $0.9 million and $0.8 million of expenses in connection
with these agreements during the three-month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. In
addition, our research and development expenses include the cost of developing prototypes and
material costs associated with the testing of products prior to shipment, the cost and related
depreciation of equipment used in the testing of products prior to shipment, and the expenses
associated with other contract research and development related services.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and benefits for
our employees that perform our sales and related support, marketing, supply chain management,
finance, legal, information technology, human resource and other general corporate functions, as
well as internal and outsourced logistics and distribution costs, commissions paid to our
manufacturers representatives, professional fees and other corporate related expenses. Selling,
general and administrative expenses also include the costs associated with pending litigation.
Inventory
Certain of our more significant customers have implemented a supply chain management tool
called vendor managed inventory (VMI) that requires suppliers, such as us, to assume
responsibility for maintaining an agreed upon level of consigned inventory at the customers
location or at a third-party logistics provider based on the customers demand forecast.
Notwithstanding the fact that we build and ship the inventory, the customer does not purchase the
consigned inventory until the inventory is drawn or pulled by the customer or third-party logistics
provider to be used in the manufacture of the customers product. Though the consigned inventory
may be at the customers or the third-party logistics providers physical location, it remains
inventory owned by us until the inventory is drawn or pulled, which is the time at which the sale
takes place. Given that under such programs we are subject to the production schedule and inventory
management decisions of the customer or the third-party logistics provider, our participation in
VMI programs generally requires us to carry higher levels of finished goods inventory than we might
otherwise carry. As of June 30, 2011 and 2010, inventories included inventory consigned to
customers or their third-party logistics providers pursuant to VMI arrangements of $9.5 million and
$7.2 million, respectively.
Income Taxes
The Company is subject to taxation in the United States, Japan and various state, local and
other foreign jurisdictions. The Companys U.S. income tax returns have been examined by the
Internal Revenue Service through the fiscal year ended March 31, 2008. The Companys New Jersey
corporate business tax returns and German tax returns have been examined by the respective tax
authorities through the fiscal year ended March 31, 2007. The Companys Japan tax returns have been
examined by the Japan tax authorities through the fiscal year ended March 31, 2006.
The Internal Revenue Service is currently examining StrataLights 2008 U.S. income tax return
and the State of Texas is currently examining
StrataLights 2008 Texas Franchise Tax Report. As of June 30, 2011, there were no material
proposed adjustments.
Factors That May Influence Future Results of Operations
Global Economic Conditions
In recent years, the credit and financial markets have experienced significant volatility
characterized by the bankruptcy, failure, collapse or sale of various financial institutions,
increased volatility in securities and commodities prices and currency rates, severely diminished
liquidity and credit availability, concern over the economic stability of certain economies in
Europe and a significant level of intervention from the United States and other governments, as
applicable. Continued concerns about the systemic impact of potential long-term or widespread
recession, the adverse effects of the ongoing sovereign debt crisis in Europe, difficulties
associated with increasing the debt ceiling in the United States, unemployment, energy costs,
geopolitical issues including government deficits, the availability and cost of credit, and reduced
consumer confidence have contributed to increased market volatility and diminished expectations for
most developed and emerging economies. Continued turbulence in the United States and international
markets and global economies could restrict our ability and the ability of our customers to
refinance indebtedness, increase the cost or decrease the availability of credit, limit access to
capital necessary to meet liquidity needs and materially harm operations or the ability to
implement planned business strategies. With respect to our customers, these factors could also
negatively impact the timing and amount of infrastructure spending, further negatively impacting
our sales. For a more detailed discussion of our capital needs, please see the section
Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of OperationsLiquidity
and Capital Resources in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2011.

Table of Contents
Japan Earthquake and Tsunami
The March 11, 2011 earthquake and tsunami in Japan resulted in a ten-day interruption in our
manufacturing operations at our module assembly facility in Totsuka, Japan and an approximate five-week
disruption to full production at our chip production facility also located in Totsuka. Certain of
our suppliers located in Japan were also impacted by the earthquake and tsunami, and in certain
instances we had to obtain alternative sources of supply or implement other measures.
These events in Japan caused significant damage to Japans power infrastructure and, during
March and April 2011, we were impacted by power outages in the Totsuka area. While we have
installed backup power systems to mitigate the impact of any future interruptions, uncertainty
still exists with respect to the availability of electrical power. Thus, there is a risk that we
could in the future experience interruptions to our production or delays or other constraints in
obtaining key components and/or price increases related to such components that could materially
adversely affect our financial condition and operating results.
Fluctuations of the Japanese Yen and the U.S. Dollar
The Japanese yen has appreciated significantly relative to the U.S. dollar in the past several
years. For example, one U.S. dollar approximated 100 Japanese yen on
March 31, 2008, 88 Japanese yen on June 30, 2010 and 81
Japanese yen on June 30, 2011. Our operating results are sensitive to fluctuations in the relative
value of the Japanese yen and U.S. dollar because certain of our sales, costs and expenses and the
related assets and liabilities are denominated in Japanese yen. As a result, fluctuations in the
relative value of the Japanese yen and U.S. dollar impact both our revenues and our operating
costs. Our sales denominated in Japanese yen represented 13.3% and 13.8% of our revenues in the
three-month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The percentage of our cost of sales
denominated in Japanese yen during the three-month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 were 36.6%
and 41.1%, respectively. While we anticipate that we will continue to have a substantial portion of
our cost of sales denominated in Japanese yen, we expect the percentage of cost of sales
denominated in Japanese yen to diminish as we expand the use of contract manufacturers outside of
Japan and procure more raw materials in U.S. dollars. Nonetheless, continued appreciation in the
value of the Japanese yen relative to the U.S. dollar could increase our operating costs and,
therefore, adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. In addition, to the
extent we continue to generate a significant portion of our sales in Japanese yen or other
currencies, our future revenues will continue to be affected by foreign currency exchange rate
fluctuations, and could be materially adversely affected.
Impact of Price Declines and Supply Constraints on Revenues
Our revenues are affected by capital spending of our customers for telecommunications and data
communications networks and for lasers and infrared LEDs used in select industrial and commercial
markets. The primary markets for our products continue to be characterized by increasing demand,
primarily driven by increases in traditional telecommunication and data communication traffic and
increasing demand for high bandwidth applications, such as video and music downloads and streaming,
on-line gaming, peer-to-peer file sharing and IPTV, as well as new industrial and commercial laser
applications. The increased unit volumes as service providers deploy network systems has
contributed along with intense price competition among optical component manufacturers, excess
capacity, and the introduction of next generation products to the market for optical components
continuing to be characterized by declining average selling prices. In recent years, we have
observed a modest acceleration in the decline of average selling prices. We anticipate that our
average selling prices will continue to decrease in future periods, although we cannot predict the
extent of these decreases for any particular period.
Our revenues are also impacted by our ability to procure critical component parts for our
products from our suppliers. During the last several years, the number of suppliers of component
parts has decreased significantly and, more recently, demand for component parts has increased
rapidly. Any supply deficiencies relating to the quality or quantities of components we use to
manufacture our products can adversely affect our ability to fulfill customer orders and our
results of operations. For example, during the calendar year ended December 31, 2010, we
experienced significant limitations on the availability of components from certain of our
suppliers, resulting in losses of anticipated sales and the related revenues. We cannot be assured
that such limitations will not reoccur in the future.
Effect of Product Life Cycle on Gross Margins
In recent periods, certain of our products that operate at 10Gbps data rates have generated
reduced gross margins, which reduced margins we believe are attributable to, among other factors,
the increased average age of such products, delays in the development of certain internal
subcomponents, our low level of vertical integration, as well as intensified competition in these
product groups. To the extent that we are unable to introduce, or experience delays in introducing,
the next generation of these products, or to the extent we are unsuccessful in achieving a
desirable level of vertical integration with respect to the subcomponents of these products, we may
continue to experience diminished gross margins in connection with the sales of these
products.
We experienced five consecutive quarterly declines in sales of our 40Gbps subsystems
products through the quarter ended June 30, 2010 and sales of such products have since been
volatile. For example, sales of 40Gbps subsystems were
$4.6 million, $8.7 million and $5.9 million in the
quarters ended December 31, 2010, March 31, 2011 and
June 30, 2011, respectively. Reoccurrence of an unfavorable sales trend in these
22
Table of Contents
products
or other 40Gbs and above products could negatively affect future gross margins, given that our gross margins are
generally higher on these products.
Research and Development Expense
Our research and development expense will vary with our efforts to meet the anticipated market
demand for our new and planned products and to support enhancements to our existing products. We
will continue to invest in our research and development efforts.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
We expect that out selling, general and administrative expenses will fluctuate with sales
volume and be impacted by the continuing costs associated with pending litigation.
Critical Accounting Policies
There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting policies, which are
described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2011.

Comparison of the Three-Month Periods Ended June 30, 2011 and 2010
Revenues. Revenues increased $14.2 million, or 18.0%, to $93.1 million, compared to $78.9
million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2010. Revenue from sales of 40Gbps and above
products increased $17.8 million, or 109.2%, to $34.1 million compared to the three-month period
ended June 30, 2010, primarily as a result of an increase in sales of 40Gbps and 100Gbps modules.
Revenue from sales of 10Gbps and below products decreased $5.3 million, or 9.4%, to $50.6 million
compared to the three-month period ended June 30, 2010 primarily due to lower sales of 300 PIN and
XFP modules partially offset by higher X2 and SFP+ module sales. Revenue from sales of our
industrial and commercial products increased $1.7 million, or 25.4%, to $8.4 million compared to
the three-month period ended June 30, 2010.
Gross Margin. Gross margin increased $5.5 million, or 37.3%, to $20.3 million, compared to
$14.8 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2010. Gross margin for the three-month
period ended June 30, 2011 included a $2.5 million negative effect from foreign currency exchange
rate fluctuations, net of the benefit from our hedging program. Gross margin for each of the
three-month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 included $1.4 million of developed product
technology amortization expense associated with the acquisition of StrataLight. In addition, gross
margin for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 included charges of $1.4 million
and $0.7 million, respectively, for excess and obsolete inventory.
Gross margin as a percentage of sales increased to 21.8% for the three-month period ended June
30, 2011, from 18.8% for the corresponding period in 2010 due to higher sales volumes, the
favorable impact of higher 40Gbps and above product sales and lower
23
Table of Contents
average per unit material and
outsourcing costs, partially offset by lower average selling prices and the negative effect from
fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.
Research and Development Expenses. Research and development expenses decreased $2.9 million to
$13.5 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2011, from $16.4 million for the
three-month period ended June 30, 2010, despite a $0.9 million increase from fluctuations in
foreign currency exchange rates. Research and development expenses decreased as a percentage of
sales to 14.5% for the three-month period ended June 30, 2011, from 20.8% for the corresponding
period in 2010, as a result of lower material and outsourcing costs associated with new
product introductions and lower employee related costs.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses
increased $0.2 million to $14.5 million for the three-month period ending June 30, 2011, from $14.3
million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2010. Selling, general and administrative
expenses decreased as a percentage of sales to 15.5% for the three-month period ended June 30,
2011, from 18.1% for the corresponding period in 2010, notwithstanding a $0.6 million increase from
fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.
Amortization of Purchased Intangibles. Amortization of purchased intangibles related to the
acquisition of StrataLight was $0.3 million for each of the three-month periods ended June 30, 2011
and 2010, and all such amortization related to customer relationships.
Gain on Sale of Property and Equipment. Gain on sale of property and equipment was
$125,000 and $11,000 for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010,
respectively.
Gain on Sale of Technology Assets, Net. Gain on sale of technology assets, net was
$2.1 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2011. Total proceeds of $2.5 million
were partially offset by $0.4 million of associated direct expenses.
Interest Expense, Net. Interest expense, net, was $0.2 million for each of the three-month
periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 and consisted of interest expense on short-term debt and
capital lease obligations partially offset by interest income earned on cash and cash equivalents.
Other
Income (Expense), net. Other Expense, net, was $0.1 million for the three-month period
ended June 30, 2011 and other income, net was $0.1 million for the three-month period ended June
30, 2010 and consisted primarily of net exchange losses and gains on foreign currency transactions.
Income Tax Expense . During the three-month period ended June 30, 2011, we recorded $0.1
million of current income tax expense attributable to income earned in certain foreign tax
jurisdictions and certain state tax jurisdictions. The Company is subject to taxation in the United
States, Japan and various state, local and other foreign jurisdictions. For those jurisdictions in
which we generated operating losses, we recorded a valuation allowance to offset potential income
tax benefits associated with these operating losses.
During the three-month period ended June 30, 2010, we recorded an insignificant amount of
current income tax expense attributable to income earned in certain foreign tax jurisdictions and
certain state tax jurisdictions. In other profitable tax jurisdictions, we did not record income
tax expense as the income tax benefits of prior operating losses were used to offset any potential
income tax expense. For those jurisdictions in which we generated operating losses, we recorded a
valuation allowance to offset potential income tax benefits associated with these operating losses.
Because of the uncertainty regarding the timing and extent of future profitability, we have
recorded a valuation allowance to offset potential income tax benefits associated with operating
losses and other net deferred tax assets. There can be no assurance that deferred tax assets
subject to the valuation allowance will ever be realized.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
During the three-month period ended June 30, 2011, cash and cash equivalents decreased by $3.1
million to $97.2 million from $100.3 million at March 31, 2011. This decrease consisted of $1.7
million of net cash used in operating activities, $2.3 million of capital lease payments and $1.6
million of capital expenditures, partially offset by $2.1 million of net proceeds from the sale of
technology assets, a $0.3 million benefit from the effects of foreign currency exchange rates and
$0.1 million of proceeds from the sale of fixed assets. Net cash used in operating activities
primarily reflected our net loss of $6.2 million excluding a
$2.1 million net gain on sale of technology assets and a
$0.1 million gain on disposal of property and equipment, and an increase in net current assets excluding cash
and cash equivalents of $3.1 million, partially offset by depreciation and
amortization of $6.1 million, non-cash stock-based compensation expense of $1.9 million and
amortization of purchased intangibles of $1.8 million. The increase in net current assets excluding
cash and cash equivalents primarily resulted from a decrease in accounts payable and accrued
expenses and an increase in prepaid and other current assets partially offset by lower accounts
receivable and lower levels of inventory. During the three-month period ended June 30, 2011, we
also entered into $1.5 million of new capital lease obligations.
We believe that existing cash and cash equivalents will be sufficient to fund our anticipated
cash needs for at least the next twelve months. However, we may require additional financing to
fund our operations in the future and there can be no assurance that additional funds will be
available, especially if we experience operating results below expectations, or, if available,
there can be no
24
Table of Contents
assurance as to the terms on which funds might be available. In addition,
unprecedented volatility in the global credit markets may affect the availability and cost of
funding in the future. If adequate financing is not available as required, or is not available on
favorable terms, our business, financial position and results of operations will be adversely
affected.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet financing arrangements or unconsolidated special purpose
entities.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.
Our exposure to market risk consists of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations related to
our international sales and operations and changes in interest rates on cash and cash equivalents
and short-term debt.
To the extent we generate sales in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, our revenues will be
affected by foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. For the three-month periods ended June 30,
2011 and 2010, 13.3% and 13.8%, respectively, of our sales were denominated in Japanese yen and
1.5% and 0.9%, respectively, of our sales were denominated in euros. The remaining sales were
denominated in U.S. dollars.
To the extent we manufacture our products in Japan, our cost of sales will be affected by
foreign currency exchange fluctuations. During the three-month periods ended June 30, 2011 and
2010, approximately 36.6% and 41.1%, respectively, of our cost of sales were denominated in
Japanese yen. While we anticipate that we will continue to have a substantial portion of our cost
of sales denominated in Japanese yen, we anticipate the percentage of cost of sales denominated in
Japanese yen to diminish, as we plan to expand the use of contract manufacturers outside of Japan
and procure more raw materials in U.S. dollars.
To the extent we perform research and development activities and selling, general and
administrative functions in Japan, our operating expenses will be affected by foreign currency
exchange rate fluctuations. During the three-month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010,
approximately 44.3% and 35.8%, respectively, of our operating expenses were denominated in Japanese
yen. We anticipate that a substantial portion of our operating expenses will continue to be
denominated in Japanese yen in the foreseeable future.
To the extent that our sales, cost of sales and operating expenses are denominated in Japanese
yen, our operating results will be subject to fluctuations due to changes in foreign currency
exchange rates. If the exchange rate of the Japanese yen in relation
to the U.S dollar had appreciated by ten percent during the
three-month period ending June 30, 2011, our operating loss
would have increased by approximately $2.8 million. If the
exchange rate had depreciated by ten percent during the three-month
period ending June 30, 2011, our operating loss would have been
reduced by approximately $2.3 million.
As of June 30, and March 31, 2011, we had net payable positions of $9.4 million and $10.7
million, subject to foreign currency exchange risk between the Japanese yen and the U.S. dollar. We
are also exposed to foreign currency exchange risk between the Japanese yen and the U.S. dollar on
intercompany sales transactions involving the Japanese yen and the U.S. dollar. At June 30, 2011,
we had four forward currency exchange contracts in place with an aggregate nominal value of $18.0
million, and at March 31, 2011, we had three forward currency exchange contracts in place with an
aggregate nominal value of $18.0 million, with expiration dates of 120 days or less to hedge a
portion of this risk. We do not enter into foreign currency exchange forward contracts for trading
purposes but rather as a hedging vehicle to minimize the effects of foreign currency exchange
fluctuations. We have estimated that a 10% fluctuation in the Japanese yen between June 30, 2011
and the maturity date of the foreign currency exchange forward contracts currently held would lead
to a gain of $2.2 million if the Japanese yen were to appreciate or a loss of $1.5 million if the
Japanese yen were to depreciate and the contracts were held to maturity.
We have entered into a short-term yen-denominated loan with The Sumitomo Trust Bank which is
due monthly unless renewed. At June 30 and March 31, 2011, the outstanding loan balance was $18.6
million and $18.0 million, respectively. The increase of $0.6 million was due to changes in foreign
currency exchange rates. Interest is paid monthly, at TIBOR plus a
premium, and was paid at a rate of 1.73% for the
three-month period ended June 30, 2011 and a rate that ranged from 1.26% to 1.50% during the three-month period
ended June 30, 2010. Total interest expense was $80,000 and $77,000 for the three-month periods
ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
To the extent we maintain significant cash balances in money market accounts, our interest
income will be affected by interest rate fluctuations. As of June 30 and March 31, 2011, we had
$97.2 million and $100.3 million, respectively, of cash balances invested primarily in traded
institutional money market funds or money market deposit accounts at banking institutions.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.
Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, after evaluating with management the
effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or
Rule 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of June 30, 2011, have concluded that, as of such date,
our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level based on
their evaluation of these controls and procedures required by paragraph (b) of Rules 13a-15 and
15d-15 under the Exchange Act.
Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not
expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will prevent all error
and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only
reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the
design of a
25
Table of Contents
control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the
benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Due to 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.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in
Rule 13a-15(f) or Rule 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act), which were identified in connection with
managements evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Exchange
Act, that occurred during the three-month period ended June 30, 2011, that have materially
affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial
reporting.
