Our Business

We are a leading supplier of core optical network technology to leading telecom equipment companies worldwide. We target telecom equipment manufacturers that integrate our optical technology into the systems they offer to the telecommunications carriers that are building, upgrading and operating high-performance optical networks. Telecom carriers are increasingly demanding greater levels of network capacity from their telecom equipment suppliers, our customers, in order to meet their rapidly growing network bandwidth requirements. We believe that the trend toward an increase in demand for optical solutions, which increase network capacity, is in response to growing bandwidth demand driven by increased transmission of video, voice and data over optical communication networks. Network carriers also seek to decrease the total cost of ownership of their networks and many of our advanced optical solutions, both now and potentially in terms of future optical technologies to enable new network architectures, can provide a level of flexibility and responsiveness consistent with supporting these goals. The rapid development of network infrastructure underway in developing countries is also driving growth in demand for optical solutions. Increasingly, internet service providers with their own wide area networks have similar requirements and are also becoming customers for our optical network products.

We design, manufacture and market optical components, modules and subsystems that generate, detect, amplify, combine and separate light signals in telecommunications networks. We are a leading supplier of optical products at the component level, including tunable lasers, pump lasers, external modulators, integrated lasers and modulators, receivers, and we are also a leading supplier of products at the module and subsystem levels, including transceivers, transponders, tunable dispersion compensation, amplifiers, wavelength selective switch (“WSS”) and controlled subsystems, including integrated reconfigurable optical add-drop multiplexer (“ROADM”) line cards. Many of our products enable increased flexibility in optical telecom networks, making the networks more dynamic in nature.

Within our overall business, we also have specific product lines focused on the design, manufacture, marketing and sale of optics and photonics solutions for selected non-telecom markets. These products include high-power lasers targeted at material processing, consumer, medical, industrial and printing markets, vertical cavity surface emitting lasers (“VCSELs”) targeted at consumer markets and thin film filter products targeted at biotechnology and other markets. Increasingly, customers outside of the telecom market are recognizing the value of optical technology to their products and end markets.

We believe that there is a long-term transition under way across many markets from use of electronics to use of light waves. We also believe that the proliferation of optical technology into new and emerging markets and our ability to be a viable supplier of differentiated technologies to larger laser system companies serving these markets helps drive our growth in related product lines. One such example is our recent introduction of fiber lasers which we believe may contribute to our customers’ ability to compete effectively in related markets with existing vertically integrated competitors.

Competitive Differentiation

We believe that the following competitive strengths have enabled us to establish our position as a leading provider of core optical network components, modules and subsystems:

•

Customer Ease of Use. We believe that providing innovative solutions to enhance our customers’ ease of doing business is critical to success, and this is at the core of our strategy. This includes exhibiting high standards of flexibility and quality and the ability to provide products ranging from standard components to advanced subsystems designed in partnership with our customers. We are a leading supplier of optical products at the component level, including tunable lasers, pump lasers, external modulators, integrated lasers and modulators and receivers. We are also a leading supplier of products at the module and subsystem levels, including transceivers, transponders, tunable dispersion compensation, amplifiers, wavelength selective switch and controlled subsystems, including integrated ROADM line cards. Our intellectual property (“IP”) leadership and vertically integrated manufacturing strategy enable us to deliver high performance, competitive solutions.

•

Optical Technology Leadership. We have extensive expertise in optical technologies including optoelectronic semiconductors, electronics design, firmware and software capabilities. Our expertise includes III-V optoelectronic semiconductors utilizing indium phosphide (“InP”), gallium arsenide and lithium niobate substrates. We have over 1,000 patents issued and our IP portfolio represents significant investment in the optical industry over the past 20 years. We believe our commitment to the optical industry and our IP and know-how represents a differentiated value proposition for our customers. We believe that we are positioned as the number one or number two supplier in many of our metro and long-haul telecom product areas, and that we have differentiated technology in the wavelength selective switching and ROADM markets where we are more recent market entrants.

•

Leading Photonic Integration Capabilities. Photonic integration, which is the combination of multiple functions or devices in one package or on one chip, is an important source of differentiation. Photonic integration can reduce the number of component elements, and thus the cost, of a solution, reduce the landscape of the required functionality, reduce the complexity of the corresponding integration of component elements and reduce overall power consumption of the related functionality. Our wafer fabrication facilities and process technologies position us to be a leader in delivering photonic integration. We believe that photonic integration will enable us to capture additional value in the optical network supply chain as customers demand increasing product integration and complexity to build the next generation network.

•

Vertically Integrated Manufacturing Approach. We operate three optical wafer fabrication facilities as well as a low-cost back-end assembly and test facility in China. Our vertical integration enables us to support and control all phases of the development and manufacturing process from chip creation, to component design, to module and subsystem production. We believe that our wafer fabrication facilities position us to introduce product innovations delivering optical network cost and performance advantages to our customers. We believe that our in-house control of this complete product lifecycle process enables us to respond more quickly to changing customer requirements, allowing our customers to reduce the time it takes them to deliver products to market. Furthermore, our ability to deliver innovative technologies in a variety of form factors, ranging from chip level to module level to subsystem level, allows us to address the needs of a broad base of potential customers regardless of their desired level of product integration or complexity.

•

Proven Ability to Expand into Other Optical Markets. We leverage our core optical expertise to enter attractive optical markets outside of telecom. We have become a leading merchant supplier of laser diodes, serving markets such as manufacturing, printing, medical and consumer and we have become a viable supplier of differentiated technologies to larger vertically integrated laser systems companies serving these markets. The corresponding product lines operate within our overall business, leveraging our telecom optical expertise, allowing us to increase fab utilization and providing revenue diversification.

Business Strategy

In order to maintain our position as a leading provider of core optical network components, modules and subsystems, we are continuing to pursue the following business strategies:

•

Maintain Focus on Core Optical Network. We are positioned as a key strategic supplier to the major telecommunications equipment companies and intend to continue to focus on enabling our customers to build equipment for the implementation of next generation core optical networks. Our optical IP and development expertise provides us with optical network insights that enable us to partner with our customers to continue to develop and deliver innovative optical solutions. We plan to continue to work with our customers to develop key technologies and expand our product offerings across the optical network.

•

Our combination of technology innovation and manufacturing flexibility enable us to deliver low-latency, high-performance products to our customers. We believe our customer-centric strategy will enable us to continue to gain share in our markets by innovating in partnership with our customers and delivering cost-effective solutions to them.

•

Extend Core Optical Product Differentiation. We plan to continue to invest in optical innovation in order to power the infrastructure required to serve the rapidly growing demand for bandwidth. Our photonic integration capability enables additional functionality of our products and we plan to continue to leverage this advantage to advance optical technology in the network. We also plan to evaluate acquisitions of and investments in complementary businesses, products or technologies in order to continuously improve our solutions for customers.

•

Match Global Engineering and Manufacturing Resources with Customer Demands. We believe our global engineering and manufacturing infrastructure enables us to deliver cost-effective solutions for our customers. We plan to continue to manage our manufacturing infrastructure in order to effectively meet customer demand for high-performance products and rapid time to market. We believe the scale of our manufacturing infrastructure can enable our margins to increase as our revenue grows due to limited incremental cost required to meet increasing demand. We also supplement our facilities with the use of contract manufacturers on a selective basis, enabling us to dynamically manage our production in the face of varying customer demand. We are currently evaluating the capabilities of additional potential contract manufacturing partners to ensure we have a scalable and cost effective manufacturing strategy appropriate for executing to our business objectives over a long-term horizon.

•

Leverage Optical Expertise to Address Other Optical Market Opportunities. We plan to continue to selectively enter and/or expand into non-telecom markets for optical products where we can leverage our optical expertise and our manufacturing infrastructure in order to provide differentiated products for our customers.

•

Consider the Use of Strategic Investment and Acquisitions to Maintain Optical Leadership Position. Our industry has historically been fragmented and characterized by large numbers of competitors. In addition to our internal development capabilities, we intend to continue to consider the use of acquisitions as a means to enhance our scale, obtain critical technologies and enter new markets. We have historically expanded our business through acquisitions where we have seen an opportunity to enhance scale, broaden our product offerings or integrate new technology. For instance, in addition to Oclaro’s formation from the April 27, 2009 merger of Bookham and Avanex, both of these predecessors have also participated in significant past merger and acquisition activities. Bookham’s acquisitions included, in particular, the Nortel Networks Optical Components business in 2002, the Marconi Optical Components business in 2002, and seven other acquisitions between 2003 and 2009. Our most recent acquisitions were the purchase of Xtellus, Inc. (“Xtellus”) in December 2009, which complemented and expanded our WSS product portfolio, and the purchase of Mintera Corporation (“Mintera”) in July 2010, which we believe will broaden our product portfolio for high-speed transmission solutions and will reinforce our position as one of the leading optical communications providers. In June 2010, we also made a minority investment in, and entered into a strategic marketing arrangement with, ClariPhy Communications, Inc. (“ClariPhy”), a designer of high-speed digital signal processors complementary to our optical components in 40 gigabits per second (“Gb/s”) and, in the future, 100 Gb/s applications.

Our Product Offerings

•

Tunable laser transmitters. Our tunable laser products include discrete lasers and co-packaged laser modulators to optimize performance and reduce the size of the product. Our tunable products at the component level include an InP tunable laser chip, a 10 Gb/s integrated tunable laser assembly (“iTLA”) and a 10 Gb/s co-packaged laser modulator tunable compact mach-zender. We also supply our tunable components into our customers’ 40 Gb/s products, and believe we are a primary supplier of these and related components into the 40 Gb/s solutions commercially available today.

•

Fixed wavelength laser transmitters. Our fixed laser products include discrete lasers and co-packaged laser modulators to optimize performance and reduce the size of the product. Our fixed wavelength products at the component level are designed for both long-haul and metro applications at 2.5 Gb/s and 10 Gb/s and include InP laser chips, a 10 Gb/s laser and a 10 Gb/s co-packaged laser and compact mach-zender modulator.

We believe that our ability to produce co-packaged, integrated transmitters, both tunable and fixed wavelength, many of which are sole-sourced to customers, demonstrates the advantages of InP photonic integration provided by our wafer fabrication facility in Caswell, U.K.

•

Lithium niobate modulators. Our lithium niobate external modulators are optical devices that manipulate the phase or the amplitude of an optical signal. Their primary function is to transfer information on an optical carrier by modulating the light. These devices externally modulate the lasers of discrete transmitter products including, but not limited to, our own standalone laser products. We are leaders in the market for 10 Gb/s modulators, and have recently introduced 40 Gb/s and 100 Gb/s modulators.

•

Receivers. Our portfolio of discrete receivers for metro and long-haul applications at 2.5 Gb/s and 10 Gb/s includes avalanche photodiode (“APD”) preamp receivers, as well as PIN photodiode preamp receivers, and PIN and APD modules and products that feature integrated attenuators.

•

Transceivers. Our small form factor pluggable transceiver portfolio includes small-form factor pluggable (“SFP”) products operating at 2.5 Gb/s and XFP products operating at 10 Gb/s, including a tunable X2 extended product operating at 10 Gb/s. We have also introduced 10 Gb/s tunable XFP products, the volume production of which we expect to increase significantly during fiscal year 2012, and which we believe will be cost effective solutions and industry leading in terms of performance. We believe the photonic integration of our internal componentry represents a differentiator and a competitive advantage in our tunable XFP products.

•

Transponder modules. Our transponder modules provide both transmitter and receiver functions. A transponder includes electrical circuitry to control the laser diode and modulation function of the transmitter as well as the receiver electronics. We supply a small form factor tunable transponder at 10 Gb/s. We supply large form factor and small form factor 40 Gb/s transponders based on a differential phase shift keying (“DPSK”) modulation scheme and a 40 Gb/s polarization multiplexing quadrature phase-shift keying (“PM-QPSK”) transponder, also known as a coherent-based transponder. We believe the photonic integration of our internal componentry represents a differentiator and a competitive advantage in certain of these products.

•

Amplifiers. Erbium doped fiber amplifiers (“EDFAs”) are used to boost the brightness of optical signals and offer compact amplification for ultra long-haul, long-haul and metro networks. We offer a semi-custom product portfolio of multi-wavelength amplifiers from gain blocks to full card level or subsystem solutions designed for use in wide bandwidth wave division multiplexing (“WDM”) optical transmission systems. We also offer lower cost narrow band mini-amplifiers. 980 nanometer (“nm”) pump laser diodes are a key component of these products and they are mostly sourced internally from our own wafer fabrication facilities.

•

Pump laser chips. Our 980 nm pump laser diodes are designed for use as high-power, reliable pump sources for EDFAs in terrestrial and undersea, or submarine, applications. Uncooled modules are designed for low-cost, reliable amplification for metro, cross-connect or other single/multi-channel amplification applications and submarine applications.

•

Wavelength Management. Our wavelength management products include switching and routing solutions, multiplexing and signal processing solutions and micro-optics and integrated modules. These include products that optically add and drop transmission signals in both fixed and reconfigurable versions, including WSS products, which can be vertically integrated into ROADM line cards, products that optically multiplex or demultiplex signals based on thin film filters, planar and interleaver technologies, and products that optically attenuate signal power across a single or multiple wavelength bands.

•

Dispersion Compensation Management. Our dispersion compensation product family consists of products that optically compensate for chromatic dispersion and dispersion degradation of transmission signals, including fixed and tunable products based on dispersion compensating fiber and cascaded etalons. We believe our tunable dispersion compensation products are deployed in the substantial portion of the non-coherent 40 Gb/s networks built today.

•

Thin Film Filters. Our thin film filter (“TFF”) products are used for multiplexing and demultiplexing optical signals within dense WDM transmission systems. In addition to this, TFF products are used to attenuate and control light within our amplifier product range. We also deploy our optical TFF technology to markets outside of telecommunications, with applications available in the life sciences, biotechnology and consumer display industries.

•

High Powered Laser Diode Products. We market advanced pump laser technology diodes for material processing, medical, cosmetic, 3-D imaging and printing applications. We are introducing fiber lasers which are being marketed to our laser systems customers. We are also exploring other new market opportunities for our high power lasers.

•

VCSEL Products. We sell low-power polarized products for optical mouse and finger navigation applications. Our market opportunities for VCSEL products are expanding to include optical data interconnectivity applications.

Customers, Sales and Marketing

We believe it is essential to maintain a comprehensive and capable sales and marketing organization. As of July 2, 2011, our sales and marketing organization, which included direct sales force, customer service, marketing communications and product line specific marketing employees, totaled 117 people for all of our products sold in Canada, China, France, Germany, Italy, Switzerland, the U.K., Japan and the United States. In addition to our direct sales and marketing organization, we also sell and market our products through international sales representatives and resellers that extend our commercial reach to smaller geographic locations and customers that are not currently covered by our direct sales and marketing efforts.

Many of our products typically have a long sales cycle. The period of time from our initial contact with a customer to the receipt of an actual purchase order is frequently a year or more. In addition, many customers perform, and require us to perform, extensive process and product evaluation and testing of components before entering into purchase arrangements.

We offer support services in connection with the sale and purchase of certain products, primarily consisting of customer service and technical support. Customer service representatives assist customers with orders, warranty returns and other administrative functions. Technical support engineers provide customers with answers to technical and product-related questions. Technical support engineers also provide application support to customers who have incorporated our products into custom applications.

For the fiscal year ended July 2, 2011, Huawei accounted for 15 percent and Alcatel-Lucent accounted for 11 percent of our revenues. For the fiscal year ended July 3, 2010, Huawei accounted for 13 percent and Alcatel-Lucent accounted for 10 percent of our revenues. For the fiscal year ended June 27, 2009, Huawei accounted for 17 percent and Nortel Networks Corporation (“Nortel”) accounted for 14 percent of our revenues.

Our customers are primarily telecommunications systems and components vendors, and also include customers in data communications, laser systems, life-sciences, industrial printing and consumer electronics components.

The following table sets forth our revenues by geographic region for the periods indicated, determined based on the country to which the products were shipped:

Manufacturing

We leverage our own in-house manufacturing capabilities, which include our own wafer fabrication facilities in Europe and our facility in Shenzhen, China where we perform assembly and test operations. We are able to support and control all phases of the development and manufacturing process from chip creation to component design and all the way through module and subsystem production. We also utilize contract manufacturers on a selective basis to provide further flexibility and to complement our internal capabilities. Our wafer fabrication facilities in particular, we believe, position us to introduce product innovations delivering optical network cost and performance advantages to our customers. We also believe that our ability to deliver innovative technologies in a variety of form factors, ranging from chip level to module level to subsystem level, allows us to address the needs of a broad base of potential customers regardless of their desired level of product integration or complexity.

We believe our advanced chip and component design and manufacturing facilities would be very expensive to replicate. On-chip, or monolithic, integration of functionality is more difficult to achieve without control over the production process, and requires advanced process know-how and equipment. Although the market for optical integrated circuits is still in its early stages, it shares many characteristics with the semiconductor market, including the positive relationship between the number of features integrated on a chip, the wafer size and the cost and sophistication of the fabrication equipment. For example, we believe our 3-inch wafer InP semiconductor fabrication facility in Caswell, U.K. provides us a competitive advantage by allowing us to increase the complexity of the optical circuits that we design and manufacture, and the integration of photonics components within smaller packages, without the relatively high cost, power and size issues associated with less integrated solutions. We also believe that our pump laser gallium arsenide semiconductor fabrication facility in Zurich, Switzerland is one of the few facilities in the world offering the 980 nm pump laser diode capability required for most metro and long-haul optical amplification solutions.

Our manufacturing capabilities include fabrication processing operations for InP substrates, gallium arsenide substrates, lithium niobate substrates and thin film filters, including clean room facilities for each of these fabrication processes, along with assembly and test capability and reliability/quality testing. We utilize sophisticated semiconductor processing equipment in these operations, such as epitaxy reactors, metal deposition systems, photolithography, etching, analytical measurement and control equipment. Our assembly and test facilities include specialized automated assembly equipment, temperature and humidity control and reliability and testing facilities.

We have wafer fabrication facilities in Caswell, U.K.; Zurich, Switzerland and San Donato, Italy. We also have facilities in Shenzhen, China where we perform assembly and test operations, a thin film filter manufacturing facility in Santa Rosa, California and a liquid crystal optical processor fabrication facility with associated assembly and test activities in Daejeon, South Korea. We also use third-party contract manufacturers in Thailand and China, principally Fabrinet in Thailand, and these activities are coordinated by our operations support team in Shenzhen, China. We also use a U.S.-based contract manufacturer to a lesser degree, on a specific product basis. For assembly and test, we believe that maintaining a strategy of utilizing both internal manufacturing and third party subcontractors maximizes the flexibility and leverage of our back-end processes. We are currently evaluating the capabilities of additional potential contract manufacturing partners to ensure we have a scalable and cost effective manufacturing strategy appropriate for executing our business objectives over a long-term horizon. As of July 2, 2011, our manufacturing organization was comprised of 2,346 people.

Research and Development

We draw upon our internal development and manufacturing capability to continue to create innovative solutions for our customers. We believe that continued focus on the development of our technology, and cost reduction of existing products through design enhancements, are critical to our future competitive success. We seek to expand and develop our products to reduce cost, improve performance and address new market opportunities, and to enhance our manufacturing processes to reduce production costs, provide increased device performance and reduce product time to market.

We have significant expertise in optical technologies such as optoelectronic semiconductors utilizing InP, gallium arsenide and lithium niobate substrates, thin film filters and micro-optic assembly and packaging technology. In addition to these technologies, we also have electronics design, firmware and software capabilities to produce transceivers, transponders, optical amplifiers, WSS, ROADMs and other value-added subsystems. We will also consider supplementing our in-house technical capabilities with strategic alliances or technology development arrangements with third parties when we deem appropriate. An example of this is our minority investment in, and strategic marketing arrangement with, ClariPhy, a developer of high-speed digital signal processors complementary to our optical components in 40 Gb/s and, in the future, 100 Gb/s applications. We spent $65.5 million, $41.5 million and $26.1 million on research and development during the years ended July 2, 2011, July 3, 2010 and June 27, 2009, respectively. As of July 2, 2011, our research and development organization was comprised of 464 people.

Our research and development facilities are in Paignton and Caswell, U.K.; San Jose and Santa Rosa, California; San Donato, Italy; Zurich, Switzerland; Shenzhen and Shanghai, China; Horseheads, New York; Acton, Massachusetts; Tucson, Arizona; Denville, New Jersey and Jerusalem, Israel. These facilities include computer-aided design stations, modern laboratories and automated test equipment. Our research and development organization has optical and electronic integration expertise that facilitates meeting customer-specific requirements as they arise.

Intellectual Property

Our competitive position significantly depends upon our research, development, engineering, manufacturing and marketing capabilities, and not just on our patent position. However, obtaining and enforcing intellectual property rights, including patents, provides us with a further competitive advantage. In the appropriate circumstances, these rights can help us to obtain entry into new markets by providing consideration for cross-licenses. In other circumstances they can be used to prevent competitors from copying our products or from using our inventions. Accordingly, our practice is to file patent applications in the United States and other countries for inventions that we consider significant. In addition to patents, we also possess other intellectual property, including trademarks, know-how, trade secrets, design rights and copyrights.

We have a substantial number of patents in the United States and other countries, and additional applications are pending. These relate to technology that we have obtained from our acquisitions of businesses and companies in addition to our own internally developed technology. As of July 2, 2011, we held 749 U.S. patents and 312 non-U.S. patents, and we had approximately 228 patent applications pending in various jurisdictions. Although our business is not materially dependent upon any one patent, our rights and the products made and sold under our patents, taken as a whole, are a significant element of our business. We maintain an active program designed to identify technology appropriate for patent protection.

We require employees and consultants to execute the appropriate non-disclosure and proprietary rights agreements. These agreements acknowledge our exclusive ownership of intellectual property developed for us and require that all proprietary information disclosed remain confidential. While such agreements are intended to be binding, we may not be able to enforce these agreements in all jurisdictions.

Although we continue to take steps to identify and protect our patentable technology and to obtain and protect proprietary rights to our technology, we cannot be certain the steps we have taken will prevent misappropriation of our technology, especially in certain countries where the legal protections of intellectual property are still developing. We may take legal action to enforce our patents and trademarks and other intellectual property rights. However, legal action may not always be successful or appropriate. Further, situations may arise in which we may decide to grant intellectual property licenses to third parties in which case other parties will be able to exploit our technology in the marketplace.

We enter into patent and technology licensing agreements with other companies when management determines that it is in our best interest to do so, for example, see our risk factor “Our products may infringe the intellectual property rights of others, which could result in expensive litigation or require us to obtain a license to use the technology from third parties, or we may be prohibited from selling certain products in the future” appearing in Item 1A of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. These may result in net royalties payable to us by third parties or by us to third parties. However, royalties received from or paid to third parties to date have not been material to our consolidated results of operations.

In the normal course of business, we periodically receive and make inquiries regarding possible patent infringement. In dealing with such inquiries, it may become necessary or useful for us to obtain or grant licenses or other rights. However, there can be no assurance that such licenses or rights will be available to us on commercially reasonable terms, or at all. If we are not able to resolve or settle claims, obtain necessary licenses on commercially reasonable terms, and/or successfully prosecute or defend our position, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

Competition

The optical communications markets are rapidly evolving. We expect these markets to continue to be highly competitive because of the available capacity and number of competitors. We compete with domestic and international companies, many of which have substantially greater financial and other resources than we do. We believe that our principal competitors in the optical subsystems, modules and components industry include Finisar Corporation (“Finisar”), JDS Uniphase Corporation (“JDSU”), Oplink Communications, Inc. (“Oplink”) and Opnext, Inc. (“Opnext”), and vertically-integrated equipment manufacturers such as Fujitsu Limited and Sumitomo Electric Industries, Ltd. The principal competitive factors upon which we compete include breadth of product line, availability, performance, product reliability, innovation and selling price. We seek to differentiate ourselves from our competitors by offering high levels of customer value through collaborative product design, technology innovation, manufacturing capabilities, optical/mechanical performance, intelligent features for configuration, control and monitoring, multi-function integration and overall customization. There can be no assurance that we will continue to compete favorably with respect to these factors. We encounter substantial competition in most of our markets, although no one competitor competes with us across all product lines or markets.

Our competitors also include laser diode suppliers such as DILAS Diode Lasers, Inc., Jenoptik AG, Coherent, Inc. and JDSU, some of which are captive suppliers to their own vertically integrated laser systems operations as well as suppliers to external customers, and some of which, like us, are merchant suppliers of laser diodes. Our competitors in VCSEL products include Avago Technologies.

Consolidation in the optical systems and components industry in the past has intensified, and future consolidation could further intensify, the competitive pressures that we face. For example, in addition to our merger with Avanex, our fiscal year 2010 acquisition of Xtellus and our fiscal year 2011 acquisition of Mintera, Finisar and Optium Corporation merged in 2008, Finisar acquired Ignis Optics in 2011 and Opnext acquired StrataLight Communications, Inc. in 2009. In the past, JDSU and Oplink have also expanded their businesses through acquisitions.

We also face competition from companies that may expand into our industry and introduce additional competitive products. Existing and potential customers are also our potential competitors. These customers may internally develop or acquire additional competitive products or technologies, which may cause them to reduce or cease their purchases from us.

Amendment and Restatement of Credit Facility

On July 26, 2011, we entered into an amendment and restatement of our senior secured revolving credit facility with Wells Fargo Capital Finance, Inc. and the other lenders party thereto, which, among other things, increased the facility size from $25 million to $45 million and extended the term thereof to August 1, 2014. This amendment and restatement is more fully discussed in Note 16, Subsequent Event, to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Employees

As of July 2, 2011, we employed 3,085 persons, including 464 in research and development, 2,346 in manufacturing, 117 in sales and marketing, and 158 in finance and administration. In Italy, 119 employees belong to local collective bargaining/professional guilds. None of our other employees are subject to collective bargaining agreements. We believe that our relations with our employees are good.

Item 1A.		Risk Factors

Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. The risks described below are not the only ones facing us. Additional risks not currently known to us or that we currently believe are immaterial also may impair our business, operations, liquidity and stock price materially and adversely. You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below in addition to the other information included or incorporated by reference in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business, financial condition or results of operations would likely suffer. In that case, the trading price of our common stock could fall and you could lose all or part of your investment.

Risks Related to Our Business

We have a history of large operating losses and we may not be able to achieve profitability in the future.

We have historically incurred losses and negative cash flows from operations since our inception. As of July 2, 2011, we had an accumulated deficit of $1,126.1 million. We incurred losses from continuing operations for the years ended July 2, 2011 and June 27, 2009, of $46.4 million and $25.8 million, respectively. Even though we generated income of $11.0 million from continuing operations for the year ended July 3, 2010, we may not be able to achieve profitability in any future periods. If we are unable to do so, we may need additional financing, which may not be available to us on commercially acceptable terms or at all, to execute on our current or future business strategies.

We may not be able to maintain gross margin levels.

We may not be able to maintain or improve our gross margins, due to the current economic uncertainty, changes in customer demand (including a change in product mix between different areas of our business) and pricing pressure from increased competition or other factors. During fiscal year 2011, our gross margin decreased as compared to fiscal year 2010. We attempt to reduce our product costs and improve our product mix to offset price competition and erosion expected in most product categories, but there is no assurance that we will be successful. Our gross margins can also be adversely impacted for reasons including, but not limited to, unfavorable production yields or variances, increases in costs of input parts and materials, the timing of movements in our inventory balances, warranty costs and related returns, changes in foreign currency exchange rates, and possible exposure to inventory valuation reserves. Any failure to maintain, or improve, our gross margins will adversely affect our financial results, including our goal to achieve sustainable cash flow positive operations.

Our business and results of operations may be negatively impacted by general economic and financial market conditions and such conditions may increase the other risks that affect our business.

Over the past few years, the world’s financial markets have experienced significant turmoil, resulting in reductions in available credit, increased costs of credit, extreme volatility in security prices, potential changes to existing credit terms, rating downgrades of investments and reduced valuations of securities generally. In light of these economic conditions, many of our customers reduced their spending plans, leading them to draw down their existing inventory and reduce orders for our products. It is possible that economic conditions could result in further setbacks, and that these customers, or others, could as a result significantly reduce their capital expenditures, draw down their inventories, reduce production levels of existing products, defer introduction of new products or place orders and accept delivery for products for which they do not pay us due to their economic difficulties or other reasons. These actions could have an adverse impact on our own revenues. In addition, the financial downturn affected the financial strength of certain of our customers, including their ability to obtain credit to finance purchases of our products, and could adversely affect additional customers in the future. Our suppliers may also be adversely affected by economic conditions that may impact their ability to provide important components used in our manufacturing processes on a timely basis, or at all.

These conditions could also result in reduced capital resources because of the potential lack of credit availability, higher costs of credit and the stretching of payables by creditors seeking to preserve their own cash resources. We are unable to predict the likely duration, severity and potential continuation of any disruption in financial markets and adverse economic conditions in the U.S. and other countries, but the longer the duration the greater the risks we face in operating our business.

Our success will depend on our ability to anticipate and respond to evolving technologies and customer requirements.

The market for telecommunications equipment is characterized by substantial capital investment, rapid and unpredictable changes in customer demand and diverse and evolving technologies. For example, the market for optical components is currently characterized by a trend toward the adoption of pluggable components and tunable transmitters that do not require the customized interconnections of traditional fixed wavelength “gold box” devices and the increased integration of components on subsystems. Our ability to anticipate and respond to these and other changes in technology, industry standards, customer requirements and product offerings and to develop and introduce new and enhanced products will be significant factors in our ability to succeed. We expect that new technologies will continue to emerge as competition in the telecommunications industry increases and the need for higher and more cost efficient bandwidth expands. The introduction of new products embodying new technologies or the emergence of new industry standards could render our existing products or products in development uncompetitive from a pricing standpoint, obsolete or unmarketable, which would negatively affect our financial condition and results of operations.

We depend on a limited number of customers for a significant percentage of our revenues.

Historically, we have generated most of our revenues from a limited number of customers. Our dependence on a limited number of customers is due to the fact that the optical telecommunications systems industry is dominated by a small number of large companies. These companies in turn depend primarily on a limited number of major telecommunications carrier customers to purchase their products that incorporate our optical components. For example, in the years ended July 2, 2011, July 3, 2010 and June 27, 2009, our three largest customers accounted for 36 percent, 29 percent and 38 percent of our revenues, respectively. Because we rely on a limited number of customers for significant percentages of our revenues, a decrease in demand for our products from any of our major customers for any reason (including due to market conditions, catastrophic events or otherwise) could have a materially adverse impact on our financial conditions and results of operations. For example, our revenues for the fiscal quarter ended July 2, 2011 were adversely impacted by a change in customer demand expectations, including a significant change in demand expectations from a particular major customer. Further, the industry in which our customers operate is subject to a trend of consolidation. To the extent this trend continues, we may become dependent on even fewer customers to maintain and grow our revenues.

The majority of our long-term customer contracts do not commit customers to specified buying levels, and our customers may decrease, cancel or delay their buying levels at any time with little or no advance notice to us.

The majority of our customers typically purchase our products pursuant to individual purchase orders or contracts that do not contain purchase commitments. Some customers provide us with their expected forecasts for our products several months in advance, but many of these customers may decrease, cancel or delay purchase orders already in place, and the impact of any such actions may be intensified given our dependence on a small number of large customers. If any of our major customers decrease, stop or delay purchasing our products for any reason, our business and results of operations would be harmed. Cancellation or delays of such orders may cause us to fail to achieve our short-term and long-term financial and operating goals and result in excess and obsolete inventory. For example, in mid-September 2010, we did experience certain deferrals and cancellation of orders which adversely impacted our financial results. In addition, our revenues for the fiscal quarter ended July 2, 2011 were adversely impacted by a change in customer demand expectations, including a significant change in demand expectations from a particular major customer.

We have significant manufacturing and research and development operations in China, which exposes us to risks inherent in doing business in China.

The majority of our assembly and test operations, chip-on-carrier operations and manufacturing and supply chain management operations are concentrated in our facility in Shenzhen, China. In addition, we have substantial research and development related activities in Shenzhen and Shanghai, China. To be successful in China we will need to:

•

qualify our manufacturing lines and the products we produce in Shenzhen, as required by our customers;

•

attract and retain qualified personnel to operate our Shenzhen facility; and

•

attract and retain research and development employees at our Shenzhen and Shanghai facilities.

We cannot assure you that we will be able to do any of these.

Employee turnover in China is high due to the intensely competitive and fluid market for skilled labor. To operate our Shenzhen facility under these conditions, we will need to continue to hire direct manufacturing personnel, administrative personnel and technical personnel; obtain and retain required legal authorization to hire such personnel; and incur the time and expense to hire and train such personnel.

Inflation rates in China are higher than in most jurisdictions in which we operate. We believe that salary inflation rates for the skilled personnel we hire and seek to retain in Shenzhen and Shanghai are likely to be higher than overall inflation rates.

Operations in China are subject to greater political, legal and economic risks than our operations in other countries. In particular, the political, legal and economic climate in China, both nationally and regionally, is fluid and unpredictable. Our ability to operate in China may be adversely affected by changes in Chinese laws and regulations such as those related to, among other things, taxation, import and export tariffs, environmental regulations, land use rights, intellectual property, currency controls, employee benefits and other matters. In addition, we may not obtain or retain the requisite legal permits to continue to operate in China, and costs or operational limitations may be imposed in connection with obtaining and complying with such permits.

We intend to continue to export the products manufactured at our Shenzhen facility. Under current regulations, upon application and approval by the relevant governmental authorities, we will not be subject to certain Chinese taxes and will be exempt from certain duties on imported materials that are used in the manufacturing process and subsequently exported from China as finished products. However, Chinese trade regulations are in a state of flux, and we may become subject to other forms of taxation and duties in China or may be required to pay export fees in the future. In the event that we become subject to new forms of taxation or export fees in China, our business and results of operations could be materially adversely affected. We may also be required to expend greater amounts than we currently anticipate in connection with increasing production at our Shenzhen facility. Any one of the factors cited above, or a combination of them, could result in unanticipated costs or interruptions in production, which could materially and adversely affect our business.

Our results of operations may suffer if we do not effectively manage our inventory, and we may incur inventory-related charges.

We need to manage our inventory of component parts and finished goods effectively to meet changing customer requirements. Accurately forecasting customers’ product needs is difficult. Our inventory balances increased to $102.2 million as of July 2, 2011 from $82.8 million as of January 1, 2011, even though quarterly revenues decreased to $109.2 million for the fiscal quarter ended July 2, 2011 from $120.3 million for the fiscal quarter ended January 1, 2011. The increase was partly as a result of actual customer demand decreasing from earlier forecast expectations. Some of our products and supplies have in the past, and may in the future, become obsolete while in inventory due to rapidly changing customer specifications or a decrease in customer demand. We also have exposure to contractual liabilities to our contract manufacturers for inventories purchased by them on our behalf, based on our forecasted requirements, which may become excess or obsolete. Our inventory balances also represent an investment of cash. To the extent our inventory turns are slower than we anticipate based on historical practice, our cash conversion cycle extends and more of our cash remains invested in working capital. If we are not able to manage our inventory effectively, we may need to write down the value of some of our existing inventory or write off non-saleable or obsolete inventory. We have from time to time incurred significant inventory-related charges. Any such charges we incur in future periods could materially and adversely affect our results of operations.

We may undertake mergers or acquisitions that do not prove successful.

From time to time we consider mergers or acquisitions, collectively referred to as “acquisitions,” of other businesses, assets or companies that would complement our current product offerings, enhance our intellectual property rights or offer other competitive opportunities. However, we may not be able to identify suitable acquisition candidates at prices we consider appropriate. In addition, we are in an industry that is actively consolidating and, as a result, there is no guarantee that we will successfully and satisfactorily bid against third parties, including competitors, when we identify a critical target we want to acquire. Our management may not be able to effectively implement our acquisition plans and internal growth strategy simultaneously.

We cannot readily predict the timing, size or success of our future acquisitions. Failure to successfully implement our acquisition plans could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. Even successful acquisitions could have the effect of reducing our cash balances, diluting the ownership interests of existing stockholders or increasing our indebtedness. For example, our acquisition of Xtellus required an immediate issuance of a significant number of newly issued shares of our common stock. In addition, during the first quarter of fiscal year 2012, we intend to issue approximately 0.9 million shares of our common stock related to the settlement of our Xtellus escrow liability. We could also choose to use shares of our common stock to pay certain earnouts associated with our acquisition of Mintera, should all, or portions, of these earnouts be achieved in the twelve and/or eighteen month periods subsequent to the acquisition date. We cannot predict with certainty which strategic, financial or operating synergies or other benefits, if any, will actually be achieved from any transaction we undertake, the timing of any such benefits, or whether those benefits which have been achieved will be sustainable on a long-term basis. Our failure to identify, consummate or integrate suitable acquisitions could adversely affect our business and results of operations.

Acquisitions could involve a number of other potential risks to our business, including the following, any of which could harm our business:

•

failure to realize the potential financial or strategic benefits of the acquisition;

•

increased costs associated with acquired operations;

•

economic dilution to gross and operating profit and earnings (loss) per share;

•

failure to successfully further develop the combined, acquired or remaining technology, which could, among other things, result in the impairment of amounts recorded as goodwill or other intangible assets;

•

unanticipated costs and liabilities and unforeseen accounting charges;

•

difficulty in integrating product offerings;

•

difficulty in coordinating and rationalizing research and development activities to enhance introduction of new products and technologies with reduced cost;

•

difficulty in coordinating and integrating the manufacturing activities of our acquired businesses, including with respect to third-party manufacturers, including executing a production capacity ramp up of our South Korea facility and our contract manufacturers to support the potential revenue demand for the WSS-related products of Xtellus, managing the manufacturing activities of the laser diode business acquired from Newport while these activities are being transferred from Tucson, Arizona to Europe and Asia, and transferring certain production of Mintera products to our internal facilities;

•

delays and difficulties in delivery of products and services;

•

failure to effectively integrate or separate management information systems, personnel, research and development, marketing, sales and support operations;

•

difficulty in maintaining internal control procedures and disclosure controls that comply with the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, or poor integration of a target’s procedures and controls;

•

difficulty in preserving important relationships of our acquired businesses and resolving potential conflicts between business cultures;

•

uncertainty on the part of our existing customers, or the customers of an acquired company, about our ability to operate effectively after a transaction, and the potential loss of such customers;

•

loss of key employees;

•

difficulty in coordinating the international activities of our acquired businesses;

•

the effect of tax laws due to increasing complexities of our global operating structure;

•

the effect of employment law or regulations or other limitations in foreign jurisdictions that could have an impact on timing, amounts or costs of achieving expected synergies; and

•

substantial demands on our management as a result of these transactions that may limit their time to attend to other operational, financial, business and strategic issues.

Our integration with acquired businesses has been and will continue to be a complex, time-consuming and expensive process. We cannot assure you that we will be able to successfully integrate these businesses in a timely manner, or at all, or that any of the anticipated benefits from our acquisition of these businesses will be realized. We may have difficulty, and may incur unanticipated expenses related to, integrating management and personnel from these acquired entities with our management and personnel. Our failure to achieve the strategic objectives of our acquisitions could have a material adverse effect on our revenues, expenses and our other operating results and cash resources and could result in us not achieving the anticipated potential benefits of these transactions. In addition, we cannot assure you that the growth rate of the combined company will equal the historical growth rate experienced by any of the companies that we have acquired. Comparable risks would accompany any divestiture of business or assets we might undertake.

Sales of our products could decline if customer and/or supplier relationships are disrupted by our recent acquisition activities.

The customers of acquired businesses, and/or of predecessor companies, may not continue their historical buying patterns. Customers may defer purchasing decisions as they evaluate the likelihood of successful integration of our products and our future product strategy, or consider purchasing products of our competitors.

Customers may also seek to modify or terminate existing agreements, or prospective customers may delay entering into new agreements or purchasing our products or may decide not to purchase any products from us. In addition, by increasing the breadth of our business, the transactions may make it more difficult for us to enter into relationships, including customer relationships, with strategic partners, some of whom may view us as a more direct competitor than any of the predecessor and/or acquired businesses as independent companies.

Competitive positions in the market, including relative to suppliers who are also competitors, could change as a result of an acquisition, and this could impact supplier relationships, including the terms under which we do business with such suppliers.

As a result of our recent business combinations, we have become a larger and more geographically diverse organization, with greater available market opportunities. If our management is unable to manage the combined organization efficiently, including the challenges of managing the growth potentially available from expanded market opportunities, our operating results will suffer.

As of July 2, 2011, we had approximately 3,085 employees in a total of 15 facilities around the world. As a result, we face challenges inherent in efficiently managing an increased number of employees over large geographic distances, including the need to implement appropriate systems, policies, benefits and compliance programs. Our inability to manage successfully the geographically more diverse (including from a cultural perspective) and substantially larger combined organization could have a material adverse effect on our operating results and, as a result, on the market price of our common stock. Certain of these acquisitions have increased our serviceable available markets and scaling the company to address the growth potentially available from addressing these markets, and potentially available within our previously existing markets, creates additional challenges of a similar nature.

We may not realize the anticipated benefits from the transfer of wafer production from our Tucson, Arizona manufacturing operations we acquired from Newport to our European fabrication facilities.

Achieving the potential benefits of our July 4, 2009 acquisition from Newport of the laser diodes manufacturing operations in Tucson, Arizona depended in substantial part on the successful transfer of those manufacturing operations to our European fabrication facilities. We have faced significant challenges in transferring these operations in a timely and efficient manner. As a result of certain of these challenges, our opportunities to increase revenues in the corresponding business were limited in fiscal year 2011.

While we have now successfully transferred those manufacturing facilities to our European fabrication facilities, we may continue to see limitations on the extent to which we can increase revenues in fiscal year 2012, and we have not yet achieved the desired yields and related cost savings. To the extent we were to conduct similar movements of product or production between manufacturing facilities in the future, we could see similar challenges and results.

Our products are complex and may take longer to develop than anticipated and we may not recognize revenues from new products until after long field testing and customer acceptance periods.

Many of our new products must be tailored to customer specifications. As a result, we are developing new products and using new technologies in those products. For example, while we currently manufacture and sell discrete “gold box” technology, we expect that many of our sales of “gold box” technology will soon be replaced by pluggable modules. New products or modifications to existing products often take many quarters or even years to develop because of their complexity and because customer specifications sometimes change during the development cycle. We often incur substantial costs associated with the research and development, design, sales and marketing activities in connection with products that may be purchased long after we have incurred such costs. In addition, due to the rapid technological changes in our market, a customer may cancel or modify a design project before we begin large-scale manufacture of the product and receive revenues from the customer. It is unlikely that we would be able to recover the expenses for cancelled or unutilized design projects. It is difficult to predict with any certainty, particularly in the present economic climate, the frequency with which customers will cancel or modify their projects, or the effect that any cancellation or modification would have on our results of operations.

As a result of our global operations, our business is subject to currency fluctuations that have adversely affected our results of operations in recent quarters and may continue to do so in the future.

Our financial results have been and will continue to be materially impacted by foreign currency fluctuations. At certain times in our history, declines in the value of the U.S. dollar versus the U.K. pound sterling have had a major negative effect on our margins and our cash flow. A significant portion of our expenses are denominated in U.K. pounds sterling and substantially all of our revenues are denominated in U.S. dollars.

Fluctuations in the exchange rate between these two currencies and, to a lesser extent, other currencies in which we collect revenues and/or pay expenses could have a material effect on our future operating results. For example during fiscal year 2011, the Swiss franc appreciated approximately 28 percent relative to the U.S. dollar, and the U.K. pound sterling appreciated 7 percent relative to the U.S. dollar, causing increases of approximately $3.1 million related to the Swiss franc and $4.4 million related to the U.K. pound sterling, respectively, in our annual manufacturing overhead and operating expenses. If the U.S. dollar stays the same or depreciates relative to the Swiss franc and/or U.K. pound sterling in the future, our future operating results may be materially impacted. Additional exposure could also result should the exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and the Chinese yuan, the South Korean won, the Israeli shekel, or the Euro vary more significantly than they have to date.

We engage in currency hedging transactions in an effort to cover some of our exposure to U.S. dollar to U.K. pound sterling currency fluctuations, and we may be required to convert currencies to meet our obligations. These transactions may not operate to fully hedge our exposure to currency fluctuations, and under certain circumstances, these transactions could have an adverse effect on our financial condition.

We depend on a limited number of suppliers who could disrupt our business if they stopped, decreased, delayed or were unable to meet our demand for shipments of their products.

We depend on a limited number of suppliers of raw materials and equipment used to manufacture our products. We also depend on a limited number of contract manufacturers, principally Fabrinet in Thailand, to manufacture certain of our products. Some of these suppliers are sole sources. We typically have not entered into long-term agreements with our suppliers other than Fabrinet and, therefore, these suppliers generally may stop supplying us materials and equipment at any time. Our reliance on a sole supplier or limited number of suppliers could result in delivery problems, reduced control over product pricing and quality, and an inability to identify and qualify another supplier in a timely manner. Given the recent macroeconomic downturn, some of our suppliers that may be small or undercapitalized may experience financial difficulties that could prevent them from supplying us materials and equipment. In addition, our suppliers, including our sole source suppliers, may experience manufacturing delays or shut downs due to circumstances beyond their control such as earthquakes, floods, fires or other natural disasters.

Any supply deficiencies relating to the quality or quantities of materials or equipment we use to manufacture our products could materially adversely affect our ability to fulfill customer orders and our results of operations. Lead times for the purchase of certain materials and equipment from suppliers have increased and in some cases have limited our ability to rapidly respond to increased demand, and may continue to do so in the future. These conditions have been exacerbated by suppliers, customers and companies reducing their inventory levels in response to the recent macroeconomic downturn. We are currently evaluating the capabilities of additional potential contract manufacturing partners to ensure we have a scalable and cost effective manufacturing strategy appropriate for executing our business objectives over a long-term horizon. To the extent we introduce additional contract manufacturing partners, introduce new products with new partners and/or move existing internal or external production lines to new partners, we could experience supply disruptions during the transition process.

In addition, Fabrinet’s manufacturing operations are located in Thailand. Thailand has been subject to political unrest in the recent past, including the temporary interruption of service at one of its international airports, and may again experience such political unrest in the future. If Fabrinet is unable to supply us with materials or equipment, or if they are unable to ship our materials or equipment out of Thailand due to political unrest, this could materially adversely affect our ability to fulfill customer orders and our results of operations.

We may record additional impairment charges that will adversely impact our results of operations.

We review our goodwill, intangible assets and long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of these assets may not be recoverable, and also review goodwill annually.

During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2011 we completed our annual first step analysis for potential impairment of our goodwill, which included examining the impact of current general economic conditions on our future prospects and the current level of our market capitalization. Based on this analysis, we concluded that goodwill related to our WSS reporting unit was impaired. Our WSS reporting unit’s goodwill was originally recorded in connection with our acquisition of Xtellus. During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2011 we also completed our second step analysis of goodwill impairment, determining that the $20.0 million of goodwill related to our WSS reporting unit was fully impaired. Based upon this evaluation, we recorded $20.0 million for the goodwill impairment loss in our consolidated statement of operations for the fiscal year ended July 2, 2011.

During the fiscal year ended June 27, 2009, we determined that the goodwill related to our previous New Focus and Avalon reporting units was fully impaired. Impairment of goodwill and other intangible assets for fiscal year 2009, net of $2.8 million associated with the discontinued operations of the New Focus business, amounted to $9.1 million.

As of July 2, 2011, we had $10.9 million in goodwill and $19.7 million in other intangible assets on our consolidated balance sheet. In the event that we determine in a future period that impairment of our goodwill, other intangible assets or long-lived assets exists for any reason, we would record additional impairment charges in the period such determination is made, which would adversely impact our financial position and results of operations.

We may incur additional significant restructuring charges that will adversely affect our results of operations.

We have previously enacted a series of restructuring plans and cost reduction plans designed to reduce our manufacturing overhead and our operating expenses that have resulted in significant restructuring charges. Such charges have adversely affected, and will continue to adversely affect, our results of operations for the periods in which such charges have been, or will be, incurred. Additionally, actual costs have in the past, and may in the future, exceed the amounts estimated and provided for in our financial statements. Significant additional charges could materially and adversely affect our results of operations in the periods that they are incurred and recognized.

For instance, we accrued $5.4 million and $2.2 million in restructuring charges during fiscal years 2009 and 2010, respectively, in connection with our merger with Avanex. On July 4, 2009, we completed the exchange of our New Focus business to Newport in exchange for Newport’s high powered laser diode business, which resulted in us incurring $0.5 million in restructuring charges in fiscal year 2010 in connection with the transfer of the Tucson manufacturing operations to our European facilities. During fiscal year 2011, we incurred $0.6 million in restructuring charges related to a restructuring plan specific to our acquisition of Mintera.

If our customers do not qualify our manufacturing lines or the manufacturing lines of our subcontractors for volume shipments, our operating results could suffer.

Most of our customers do not purchase products, other than limited numbers of evaluation units, prior to qualification of the manufacturing line for volume production. Our existing manufacturing lines, as well as each new manufacturing line, must pass through varying levels of qualification with our customers. Our manufacturing lines have passed our qualification standards, as well as our technical standards. However, our customers also require that our manufacturing lines pass their specific qualification standards and that we, and any subcontractors that we may use, be registered under international quality standards. In addition, we have in the past, and may in the future, encounter quality control issues as a result of relocating our manufacturing lines or introducing new products to fill production. We may be unable to obtain customer qualification of our manufacturing lines or we may experience delays in obtaining customer qualification of our manufacturing lines. Such delays or failure to obtain qualifications would harm our operating results and customer relationships. We are currently evaluating the capabilities of additional potential contract manufacturing partners to ensure we have a scalable and cost effective manufacturing strategy appropriate for executing to our business objectives over a long-term horizon. To the extent we introduce new contract manufacturing partners and move any production lines from existing internal or external facilities the new production lines will likely need to be requalified with customers.

Delays, disruptions or quality control problems in manufacturing could result in delays in product shipments to customers and could adversely affect our business.

We may experience delays, disruptions or quality control problems in our manufacturing operations or the manufacturing operations of our subcontractors. As a result, we could incur additional costs that would adversely affect our gross margins, and our product shipments to our customers could be delayed beyond the shipment schedules requested by our customers, which would negatively affect our revenues, competitive position and reputation. Furthermore, even if we are able to deliver products to our customers on a timely basis, we may be unable to recognize revenues at the time of delivery based on our revenue recognition policies.

We may experience low manufacturing yields.

Manufacturing yields depend on a number of factors, including the volume of production due to customer demand and the nature and extent of changes in specifications required by customers for which we perform design-in work. Higher volumes due to demand for a fixed, rather than continually changing, design generally results in higher manufacturing yields, whereas lower volume production generally results in lower yields. In addition, lower yields may result, and have in the past resulted, from commercial shipments of products prior to full manufacturing qualification to the applicable specifications. Changes in manufacturing processes required as a result of changes in product specifications, changing customer needs and the introduction of new product lines have historically caused, and may in the future cause, significantly reduced manufacturing yields, resulting in low or negative margins on those products. Moreover, an increase in the rejection rate of products during the quality control process, before, during or after manufacture, results in lower yields and margins. For example, see the Risk Factor entitled “We may not realize the anticipated benefits from the transfer of wafer production from our Tucson, Arizona manufacturing operations to our European fabrication facilities” above. Finally, manufacturing yields and margins can also be lower if we receive or inadvertently use defective or contaminated materials from our suppliers. Any reduction in our manufacturing yields will adversely affect our gross margins and could have a material impact on our operating results.

Our intellectual property rights may not be adequately protected.

Our future success will depend, in large part, upon our intellectual property rights, including patents, copyrights, design rights, trade secrets, trademarks and know-how. We maintain an active program of identifying technology appropriate for patent protection. Our practice is to require employees and consultants to execute non-disclosure and proprietary rights agreements upon commencement of employment or consulting arrangements. These agreements acknowledge our exclusive ownership of all intellectual property developed by the individuals during their work for us and require that all proprietary information disclosed will remain confidential. Although such agreements may be binding, they may not be enforceable in full or in part in all jurisdictions and any breach of a confidentiality obligation could have a negative effect on our business and our remedy for such breach may be limited.

Our intellectual property portfolio is an important corporate asset. The steps we have taken and may take in the future to protect our intellectual property may not adequately prevent misappropriation or ensure that others will not develop competitive technologies or products. We cannot assure you that our competitors will not successfully challenge the validity of our patents or design products that avoid infringement of our proprietary rights with respect to our technology. There can be no assurance that other companies are not investigating or developing other similar technologies, that any patents will be issued from any application pending or filed by us or that, if patents are issued, that the claims allowed will be sufficiently broad to deter or prohibit others from marketing similar products. In addition, we cannot assure you that any patents issued to us will not be challenged, invalidated or circumvented, or that the rights under those patents will provide a competitive advantage to us or that our products and technology will be adequately covered by our patents and other intellectual property. Further, the laws of certain regions in which our products are or may be developed, manufactured or sold, including Asia-Pacific, Southeast Asia and Latin America, may not be enforceable to protect our products and intellectual property rights to the same extent as the laws of the United States, the U.K. and continental European countries. This is especially relevant now that we have transferred all of our assembly and test operations and chip-on-carrier operations, including certain engineering-related functions, from our facilities in the U.K. to Shenzhen, China.

Our products may infringe the intellectual property rights of others, which could result in expensive litigation or require us to obtain a license to use the technology from third parties, or we may be prohibited from selling certain products in the future.

Companies in the industry in which we operate frequently are sued or receive informal claims of patent infringement or infringement of other intellectual property rights. We have, from time to time, received such claims, including from competitors and from companies that have substantially more resources than us.

Third parties may in the future assert claims against us concerning our existing products or with respect to future products under development, or with respect to products that we may acquire through acquisitions. We have entered into and may in the future enter into indemnification obligations in favor of some customers that could be triggered upon an allegation or finding that we are infringing other parties’ proprietary rights. If we do infringe a third party’s rights, we may need to negotiate with holders of those rights in order to obtain a license to those rights or otherwise settle any infringement claim. We have from time to time received notices from third parties alleging infringement of their intellectual property and where appropriate have entered into license agreements with those third parties with respect to that intellectual property. Any license agreements that we wish to enter into the future with respect to intellectual property rights may not be available to us on commercially reasonable terms, or at all. We may not in all cases be able to resolve allegations of infringement through licensing arrangements, settlement, alternative designs or otherwise. We may take legal action to determine the validity and scope of the third-party rights or to defend against any allegations of infringement. The recent economic downturn could result in holders of intellectual property rights becoming more aggressive in alleging infringement of their intellectual property rights and we may be the subject of such claims asserted by a third party. In the course of pursuing any of these means or defending against any lawsuits filed against us, we could incur significant costs and diversion of our resources and our management’s attention. Due to the competitive nature of our industry, it is unlikely that we could increase our prices to cover such costs. In addition, such claims could result in significant penalties or injunctions that could prevent us from selling some of our products in certain markets or result in settlements or judgments that require payment of significant royalties or damages.

If we fail to obtain the right to use the intellectual property rights of others necessary to operate our business, our business and results of operations will be materially and adversely affected.

Certain companies in the telecommunications and optical components markets in which we sell our products have experienced frequent litigation regarding patent and other intellectual property rights. Numerous patents in these industries are held by others, including academic institutions and our competitors. Optical component suppliers may seek to gain a competitive advantage or other third parties, inside or outside our market, may seek an economic return on their intellectual property portfolios by making infringement claims against us. We currently in-license certain intellectual property of third parties, and in the future, we may need to obtain license rights to patents or other intellectual property held by others to the extent necessary for our business. Unless we are able to obtain such licenses on commercially reasonable terms, patents or other intellectual property held by others could be used to inhibit or prohibit our production and sale of existing products and our development of new products for our markets. Licenses granting us the right to use third-party technology may not be available on commercially reasonable terms, or at all. Generally, a license, if granted, would include payments of up-front fees, ongoing royalties or both. These payments or other terms could have a significant adverse impact on our operating results. In addition, in the event we are granted such a license, it is likely such license would be non-exclusive and other parties, including competitors, may be able to utilize such technology. Our larger competitors may be able to obtain licenses or cross-license their technology on better terms than we can, which could put us at a competitive disadvantage. In addition, our larger competitors may be able to buy such technology and preclude us from licensing or using such technology.

The inability to obtain government licenses and approvals for desired international trading activities or technology transfers may prevent the profitable operation of our business.

Many of our present and future business activities are subject to licensing by the United States government under the Export Administration Act, the Export Administration Regulations and other laws, regulations and requirements governing international trade and technology transfer. We presently manufacture products in China and Thailand that require such licenses. The profitable operations of our business may require the continuity of these licenses and may require further licenses and approvals for future products in these and other countries. However, there is no certainty to the continuity of these licenses, nor that further desired licenses and approvals may be obtained.

The markets in which we operate are highly competitive, which could result in lost sales and lower revenues.

The market for optical components and modules is highly competitive and this competition could result in our existing customers moving their orders to our competitors. We are aware of a number of companies that have developed or are developing optical component products, including tunable lasers, pluggables, wavelength selective switches and thin film filter products, among others, that compete directly with our current and proposed product offerings.

Certain of our competitors may be able to more quickly and effectively:

•

develop or respond to new technologies or technical standards;

•

react to changing customer requirements and expectations;

•

devote needed resources to the development, production, promotion and sale of products; and

•

deliver competitive products at lower prices.

Some of our current competitors, as well as some of our potential competitors, have longer operating histories, greater name recognition, broader customer relationships and industry alliances and substantially greater financial, technical and marketing resources than we do. In addition, market leaders in industries such as semiconductor and data communications, who may also have significantly more resources than we do, may in the future enter our market with competing products. Our competitors and new Chinese companies are establishing manufacturing operations in China to take advantage of comparatively low manufacturing costs. All of these risks may be increased if the market were to further consolidate through mergers or other business combinations between competitors.

We may not be able to compete successfully with our competitors and aggressive competition in the market may result in lower prices for our products and/or decreased gross margins. Any such development could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We generate a significant portion of our revenues internationally and therefore are subject to additional risks associated with the extent of our international operations.

For fiscal years ended July 2, 2011, July 3, 2010 and June 27, 2009, 17 percent, 19 percent and 20 percent of our revenues, respectively, were derived from sales to customers located in the United States and 83 percent, 81 percent and 80 percent of our revenues, respectively, were derived from sales to customers located outside the United States. We are subject to additional risks related to operating in foreign countries, including:

•

currency fluctuations, which could result in increased operating expenses and reduced revenues;

•

greater difficulty in accounts receivable collection and longer collection periods;

•

difficulty in enforcing or adequately protecting our intellectual property;

•

ability to hire qualified candidates;

•

foreign taxes;

•

political, legal and economic instability in foreign markets;

•

foreign regulations;

•

changes in, or impositions of, legislative or regulatory requirements;

•

trade restrictions, including restrictions imposed by the United States government on trading with parties in foreign countries;

•

transportation delays;

•

epidemics and illnesses;

•

terrorism and threats of terrorism;

•

work stoppages and infrastructure problems due to adverse weather conditions or natural disasters;

•

work stoppages related to employee dissatisfaction;

•

changes in import/export regulations, tariffs, and freight rates; and

•

the effective protections of, and the ability to enforce, contractual arrangements.

Any of these risks, or any other risks related to our foreign operations, could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Changes in effective tax rates or adverse outcomes resulting from examination of our income tax returns could adversely affect our results.

Our future effective tax rates could be adversely affected by earnings being lower than anticipated in countries where we have lower statutory rates and higher than anticipated in countries where we have higher statutory rates, by changes in the valuation of our deferred tax assets and liabilities, or by changes in tax laws, regulations, accounting principles or interpretations thereof. In addition, we are subject to the continuous examination of our income tax returns by the Internal Revenue Service and other tax authorities. We regularly assess the likelihood of adverse outcomes resulting from these examinations to determine the adequacy of our provision for income taxes. There can be no assurance that the outcomes from these continuous examinations will not have an adverse effect on our operating results and financial condition.

We may face product liability claims.

Despite quality assurance measures, defects may occur in our products. The occurrence of any defects in our products could give rise to liability for damages caused by such defects, including consequential damages. Such defects could, moreover, impair market acceptance of our products. Both could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition. In addition, we may assume product warranty liabilities related to companies we acquire, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition. In order to mitigate the risk of liability for damages, we carry product liability insurance with a $25.0 million aggregate annual limit and errors and omissions insurance with a $5.0 million annual limit. We cannot assure you that this insurance would adequately cover our costs arising from any defects in our products or otherwise.

If we fail to attract and retain key personnel, our business could suffer.

Our future success depends, in part, on our ability to attract and retain key personnel. Competition for highly skilled technical personnel is extremely intense and we continue to face difficulty identifying and hiring qualified engineers in many areas of our business. We may not be able to hire and retain such personnel at compensation levels consistent with our existing compensation and salary structure. Our future success also depends on the continued contributions of our executive management team and other key management and technical personnel, each of whom would be difficult to replace. The loss of services of these or other executive officers or key personnel or the inability to continue to attract qualified personnel could have a material adverse effect on our business.

In addition, certain employees of companies we have acquired that are now employed by us may decide to no longer work for us with little or no notice for a number of reasons, including dissatisfaction with our corporate culture, compensation, and new roles or responsibilities, among others.

Our business and operating results may be adversely affected by natural disasters or other catastrophic events beyond our control.

Our business and operating results are vulnerable to natural disasters, such as earthquakes, fires and floods, as well as other events beyond our control such as power loss, telecommunications failures and uncertainties arising out of terrorist attacks in the United States and armed conflicts overseas. Our corporate headquarters and a portion of our research and development and manufacturing operations are located in Silicon Valley, California. This region in particular has been vulnerable to natural disasters, such as earthquakes. The occurrence of any of these events could pose physical risks to our property and personnel, which may adversely affect our ability to produce and deliver products to our customers. Although we presently maintain insurance against certain of these events, we cannot be certain that our insurance will be adequate to cover any damage sustained by us or by our customers.

Risks Related to Regulatory Compliance and Litigation

We are subject to anti-corruption laws in the jurisdictions in which we operate, including the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, or the FCPA. Our failure to comply with these laws could result in penalties which could harm our reputation and have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We are subject to the FCPA, which generally prohibits companies and their intermediaries from making improper payments to foreign officials for the purpose of obtaining or keeping business and/or other benefits, along with various other anticorruption laws. Although we have implemented policies and procedures designed to ensure that we, our employees and other intermediaries comply with the FCPA and other anticorruption laws to which we are subject, there is no assurance that such policies or procedures will work effectively all of the time or protect us against liability under the FCPA or other laws for actions taken by our employees and other intermediaries with respect to our business or any businesses that we may acquire. We have manufacturing operations in China and other jurisdictions, many of which pose elevated risks of anti-corruption violations, and we export our products for sale internationally. This puts us in frequent contact with persons who may be considered “foreign officials” under the FCPA, resulting in an elevated risk of potential FCPA violations. If we are not in compliance with the FCPA and other laws governing the conduct of business with government entities (including local laws), we may be subject to criminal and civil penalties and other remedial measures, which could have an adverse impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations and liquidity. Any investigation of any potential violations of the FCPA or other anticorruption laws by U.S. or foreign authorities could harm our reputation and have an adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

A lack of effective internal control over our financial reporting could result in an inability to report our financial results accurately, which could lead to a loss of investor confidence in our financial reports and have an adverse effect on our stock price.

Effective internal controls over financial reporting are necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports. If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, our business and operating results could be harmed. Our failure to implement and maintain effective internal control over financial reporting could result in a material misstatement of our financial statements or otherwise cause us to fail to meet our financial reporting obligations. This, in turn, could result in a loss of investor confidence in the accuracy and completeness of our financial reports, which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, operating results and our stock price, and we could be subject to stockholder litigation as a result. Even if we are able to implement and maintain effective internal control over financial reporting, the costs of doing business may increase and our management may be required to dedicate greater time and resources to that effort. In addition, we have in the past, and may in the future, acquire companies that have either experienced material weaknesses in their internal controls over financial reporting or have had no previous reporting obligations under Sarbanes-Oxley. Failure to integrate acquired businesses into our internal controls over financial reporting could cause those controls to fail.

Litigation may substantially increase our costs and harm our business.

We are a party to numerous lawsuits and will continue to incur legal fees and other costs related thereto, including potentially expenses for the reimbursement of legal fees of officers and directors under indemnification obligations. The expense of continuing to defend such litigation may be significant. In addition, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in any defense. Further, the amount of time that will be required to resolve these lawsuits is unpredictable and these actions may divert management’s attention from the day-to-day operations of our business, which could adversely affect our business, results of operations and cash flows. Litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters that may arise from time to time could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

For a description of our current material litigation, see Part I, Item 3 — Legal Proceedings of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

In addition, from time to time, we have been a party to certain intellectual property infringement litigation as more fully described above under “Risks Related to Our Business — Our products may infringe the intellectual property rights of others, which could result in expensive litigation or require us to obtain a license to use the technology from third parties, or we may be prohibited from selling certain products in the future.”

Our business involves the use of hazardous materials, and we are subject to environmental and import/export laws and regulations that may expose us to liability and increase our costs.

We historically handled hazardous materials as part of our manufacturing activities. Consequently, our operations are subject to environmental laws and regulations governing, among other things, the use and handling of hazardous substances and waste disposal. We may incur costs to comply with current or future environmental laws. As with other companies engaged in manufacturing activities that involve hazardous materials, a risk of environmental liability is inherent in our manufacturing activities, as is the risk that our facilities will be shut down in the event of a release of hazardous waste, or that we would be subject to extensive monetary liabilities. The costs associated with environmental compliance or remediation efforts or other environmental liabilities could adversely affect our business. Under applicable European Union regulations, we, along with other electronics component manufacturers, are prohibited from using lead and certain other hazardous materials in our products. We could lose business or face product returns if we fail to maintain these requirements properly.

In addition, the sale and manufacture of certain of our products require on-going compliance with governmental security and import/export regulations. We may, in the future, be subject to investigation which may result in fines for violations of security and import/export regulations. Furthermore, any disruptions of our product shipments in the future, including disruptions as a result of efforts to comply with governmental regulations, could adversely affect our revenues, gross margins and results of operations.

Risks Related to Our Common Stock

A variety of factors could cause the trading price of our common stock to be volatile or to decline and we may incur significant costs from class action litigation due to our expected stock volatility.

The trading price of our common stock has been, and is likely to continue to be, highly volatile. Many factors could cause the market price of our common stock to rise and fall. In addition to the matters discussed in other risk factors included herein, some of the reasons for the fluctuations in our stock price are:

•

fluctuations in our results of operations, including our gross margins;

•

changes in our business, operations or prospects;

•

hiring or departure of key personnel;

•

new contractual relationships with key suppliers or customers by us or our competitors;

•

proposed acquisitions by us or our competitors;

•

financial results or projections that fail to meet public market analysts’ expectations and changes in stock market analysts’ recommendations regarding us, other optical technology companies or the telecommunication industry in general;

•

future sales of common stock, or securities convertible into or exercisable for common stock;

•

adverse judgments or settlements obligating us to pay damages;

•

future issuances of common stock in connection with acquisitions or other transactions;

•

acts of war, terrorism, or natural disasters;

•

industry, domestic and international market and economic conditions, including the global macroeconomic downturn over the last three years and related sovereign debt issues in certain parts of the world;

•

low trading volume in our stock;

•

developments relating to patents or property rights; and

•

government regulatory changes.

In connection with our acquisition of Mintera in July 2010, we may pay up to $20.0 million in additional revenue-based consideration to former stockholders of Mintera, determined based on a set of sliding scale formulas, to the extent revenue from Mintera products is more than $29.0 million in the 12 months following the acquisition and/or more than $40.0 million in the 18 months following the acquisition. Achieving cumulative revenues of $40.0 million over the 12 months and $70.0 million over the 18 month period following the acquisition would lead to the maximum $20.0 million in additional consideration. This earnout consideration, if any, will be payable in cash or, at our option, newly issued shares of our common stock, or a combination of cash and stock. The issuance, if any, and subsequent sale of these shares, would dilute our existing stockholders and potentially have a negative impact on our stock price.

In connection with our acquisition of Xtellus in December 2009, we were obligated to pay an additional $7.0 million in consideration to the former Xtellus stockholders after an 18 month escrow period established to secure the indemnification obligations of the Xtellus stockholders under the acquisition agreement. We issued approximately 1.0 million shares of our common stock into a third-party escrow account to secure our obligation under the escrow agreement. The $7.0 million became payable in June 2011. This obligation remained outstanding as of July 2, 2011. During the first quarter of fiscal year 2012, we intend to settle this obligation through issuance of approximately 0.9 million shares of our common stock. This issuance and the subsequent sale of these shares will dilute our existing stockholders and could potentially have a negative impact on our stock price.

Our shares of common stock have experienced substantial price and volume fluctuations, in many cases without any direct relationship to our operating performance. An outgrowth of this market volatility is the significant vulnerability of our stock price to any actual or perceived fluctuation in the strength of the markets we serve, regardless of the actual consequence of such fluctuations. As a result, the market price for our stock is highly volatile. These broad market and industry factors have caused the market price of our common stock to fluctuate, and may in the future cause the market price of our common stock to fluctuate, regardless of our actual operating performance.

We are subject to pending securities class action and shareholder derivative legal proceedings.

When the market price of a stock experiences a sharp decline, as our stock price recently has, holders of that stock have occasionally brought securities class action litigation against the company that issued the stock. Several securities class action lawsuits have been filed against us and certain of our current and former officers and directors. Each purported derivative complaint alleges, among other things, counts for breaches of fiduciary duty, waste, and unjust enrichment. For a description of these lawsuits, see Part I, Item 3 — Legal Proceedings of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. These lawsuits will likely divert the time and attention of our management. In addition, if these suits are resolved in a manner adverse to us, the damages we could be required to pay may be substantial and could have an adverse impact on our results of operations and our ability to operate our business.

Fluctuations in our operating results could adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

Our revenues and other operating results are likely to fluctuate significantly in the future. The timing of order placement, size of orders and satisfaction of contractual customer acceptance criteria, changes in the pricing of our products due to competitive pressures as well as order or shipment delays or deferrals, with respect to our products, may cause material fluctuations in revenues. Our lengthy sales cycle, which may extend to more than one year, may cause our revenues and operating results to vary from period to period and it may be difficult to predict the timing and amount of any variation. Delays or deferrals in purchasing decisions by our customers may increase as we develop new or enhanced products for new markets, including data communications, industrial, research, consumer and biotechnology markets. Our current and anticipated future dependence on a small number of customers increases the revenue impact of each such customer’s decision to delay or defer purchases from us, or decision not to purchase products from us. Our expense levels in the future will be based, in large part, on our expectations regarding future revenue sources and, as a result, operating results for any quarterly period in which material orders fail to occur, or are delayed or deferred, could vary significantly.

Because of these and other factors, quarter-to-quarter comparisons of our results of operations may not be indicative of our future performance. In future periods, our results of operations may differ, in some cases materially, from the estimates of public market analysts and investors. Such a discrepancy, or our failure to meet published financial projections, could cause the market price of our common stock to decline.

We may not be able to raise capital when desired on favorable terms without dilution to our stockholders, or at all.

The rapidly changing industry in which we operate, the length of time between developing and introducing a product to market and frequent changing customer specifications for products, among other things, makes our prospects difficult to evaluate. It is possible that we may not generate sufficient cash flow from operations, or be able to draw down on our $45.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility, or otherwise have sufficient capital resources to meet our future capital needs. If this occurs, we may need additional financing to execute on our current or future business strategies.

If we raise funds through the issuance of equity, equity-linked or convertible debt securities, our stockholders may be significantly diluted, and these newly-issued securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of securities held by existing stockholders. If we raise funds through the issuance of debt instruments, the agreements governing such debt instruments may contain covenant restrictions that limit our ability to, among other things: (i) incur additional debt, assume obligations in connection with letters of credit, or issue guarantees; (ii) create liens; (iii) make certain investments or acquisitions; (iv) enter into transactions with our affiliates; (v) sell certain assets; (vi) redeem capital stock or make other restricted payments; (vii) declare or pay dividends or make other distributions to stockholders; and (viii) merge or consolidate with any entity. We cannot assure you that additional financing will be available on terms favorable to us, or at all. If adequate funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, if and when needed, our ability to fund our operations, develop or enhance our products, or otherwise respond to competitive pressures and operate effectively could be significantly limited.

Because we do not intend to pay dividends, stockholders will benefit from an investment in our common stock only if it appreciates in value.

We have never declared or paid any dividends on our common stock. We anticipate that we will retain any future earnings to support operations and to finance the development of our business and do not expect to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future. As a result, the success of an investment in our common stock will depend entirely upon any future appreciation in its value. There is no guarantee that our common stock will appreciate in value or even maintain the price at which stockholders have purchased their shares.

We can issue shares of preferred stock that may adversely affect your rights as a stockholder of our common stock.

Our certificate of incorporation authorizes us to issue up to 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock with designations, rights and preferences determined from time-to-time by our board of directors. Accordingly, our board of directors is empowered, without stockholder approval, to issue preferred stock with dividend, liquidation, conversion, voting or other rights superior to those of holders of our common stock. For example, an issuance of shares of preferred stock could:

•

adversely affect the voting power of the holders of our common stock;

•

make it more difficult for a third-party to gain control of us;

•

discourage bids for our common stock at a premium;

•

limit or eliminate any payments that the holders of our common stock could expect to receive upon our liquidation; or

•

otherwise adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

We may in the future issue shares of authorized preferred stock at any time.

Delaware law and our charter documents contain provisions that could discourage or prevent a potential takeover, even if such a transaction would be beneficial to our stockholders.

Some provisions of our certificate of incorporation and bylaws, as well as provisions of Delaware law, may discourage, delay or prevent a merger or acquisition that a stockholder may consider favorable. These include provisions:

•

authorizing the board of directors to issue preferred stock;

•

prohibiting cumulative voting in the election of directors;

•

limiting the persons who may call special meetings of stockholders;

•

prohibiting stockholder actions by written consent;

•

creating a classified board of directors pursuant to which our directors are elected for staggered three-year terms;

•

permitting the board of directors to increase the size of the board and to fill vacancies;

•

requiring a super-majority vote of our stockholders to amend our bylaws and certain provisions of our certificate of incorporation; and

•

establishing advance notice requirements for nominations for election to the board of directors or for proposing matters that can be acted on by stockholders at stockholder meetings.

We are subject to the provisions of Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law which limit the right of a corporation to engage in a business combination with a holder of 15 percent or more of the corporation’s outstanding voting securities, or certain affiliated persons. We do not currently have a stockholder rights plan in place.

Although we believe that these charter and bylaw provisions, and provisions of Delaware law, provide an opportunity for the board to assure that our stockholders realize full value for their investment, they could have the effect of delaying or preventing a change of control, even under circumstances that some stockholders may consider beneficial.

Item 3.		Legal Proceedings

On June 26, 2001, the first of a number of securities class actions was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against New Focus, Inc., now known as Oclaro Photonics, Inc. (“New Focus”), certain of our officers and directors, and certain underwriters for New Focus’ initial and secondary public offerings. A consolidated amended class action complaint, captioned In re New Focus, Inc. Initial Public Offering Securities Litigation, No. 01 Civ. 5822, was filed on April 20, 2002. The complaint generally alleges that various underwriters engaged in improper and undisclosed activities related to the allocation of shares in New Focus’ initial public offering and seeks unspecified damages for claims under the Exchange Act on behalf of a purported class of purchasers of common stock from May 17, 2000 to December 6, 2000.

The lawsuit against New Focus is coordinated for pretrial proceedings with a number of other pending litigations challenging underwriter practices in over 300 cases, as In re Initial Public Offering Securities Litigation, 21 MC 92 (SAS), including actions against Bookham Technology plc, now known as Oclaro Technology Ltd (“Bookham Technology”) and Avanex Corporation, now known as Oclaro (North America), Inc. (“Avanex”), and certain of each entity’s respective officers and directors, and certain of the underwriters of their public offerings. In October 2002, the claims against the directors and officers of New Focus, Bookham Technology and Avanex were dismissed, without prejudice, subject to the directors’ and officers’ execution of tolling agreements.

The parties have reached a global settlement of the litigation. On October 5, 2009, the Court entered an order certifying a settlement class and granting final approval of the settlement. Under the settlement, the insurers will pay the full amount of the settlement share allocated to New Focus, Bookham Technology and Avanex, and New Focus, Bookham Technology and Avanex will bear no financial liability. New Focus, Bookham Technology and Avanex, as well as the officer and director defendants who were previously dismissed from the action pursuant to tolling agreements, will receive complete dismissals from the case. Certain objectors have appealed the Court’s October 5, 2009 order to the Second Circuit Court of Appeals. If for any reason the settlement does not become effective, we believe that Bookham Technology, New Focus and Avanex have meritorious defenses to the claims and therefore believe that such claims will not have a material effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

On December 6, 2010, a bankruptcy preferential transfer avoidance action was filed by Nortel Networks Inc. et al. against Oclaro Technology Ltd. (formerly Bookham Technology Plc.) and Oclaro (North America), Inc. (formerly Avanex Corporation) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware, Adversary Proceeding No. 10-55919-KG. The complaint alleges, among other things, that Nortel Networks Inc., and/or its affiliated debtors in the Chapter 11 bankruptcy cases also pending before the Delaware Bankruptcy Court (Jointly Administered Case No. 09-10138-KG), made at least $4,593,152 in preferential transfers to the defendants’ predecessors, Bookham Technology Plc. and Avanex Corporation, in the 90 days prior to the commencement of the Nortel Chapter 11 bankruptcy cases on January 14, 2009. We intend to vigorously contest the claims set forth in the complaint.

On May 19, 2011, Curtis and Charlotte Westley filed a purported class action complaint in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, against us and certain of our officers and directors, allegedly on behalf of persons who purchased or otherwise acquired our common stock between May 6 and October 27, 2010. The complaint, captioned as Westley v. Oclaro, Inc., No. 11 Civ. 2448 EMC (N.D. Cal. filed May 19, 2011), alleges generally that defendants issued materially false and misleading statements during the relevant time period regarding our current business and financial condition, including projections for our revenues, earnings, and gross margins, for the first quarter of fiscal year 2011 as well as the full fiscal year. The complaint alleges violations of section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act and Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 10b-5, as well as section 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act. The complaint seeks damages and costs of an unspecified amount. Discovery has not commenced, and no trial has been scheduled in this action. We intend to defend this litigation vigorously.

On June 10, 2011, a purported shareholder, Stanley Moskal, filed a purported derivative action in the Superior Court for the State of California, County of Santa Clara, against us, as nominal defendant, and certain of our current and former officers and directors, as defendants. The case is styled Moskal v. Couder, No. 1:11 CV 202880 (Santa Clara County Super. Ct. filed June 10, 2011). Four other purported shareholders, Matteo Guindani, Jermaine Coney, Jefferson Braman and Toby Aguilar, separately filed substantially similar lawsuits in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California on June 27, June 28, July 7 and July 26, 2011, respectively. The cases are styled Guindani v. Couder, No. 11 Civ. 3176 PSG (N.D. Cal. filed June 27, 2011), Coney v. Couder, No. 11 Civ. 3214 HRL (N.D. Cal. filed June 28, 2011), and Braman v. Couillaud, No. 11 Civ. 3322 RS (N.D. Cal. filed July 7, 2011), and Aguilar v. Couillaud, No. 11 Civ. 3668 EDL (N.D. Cal. filed July 26, 2011). Each purported derivative complaint alleges that Oclaro has been, or will be, damaged by the actions alleged in the Westley complaint, and the litigation of the Westley action, and any damages or settlement paid in the Westley action. Each purported derivative complaint alleges counts for breaches of fiduciary duty, waste, and unjust enrichment. Additionally, the complaint in Aguilar alleges claims for contribution pursuant to Sections 10(b) and 21D of the Securities and Exchange Act, and Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 10b-5, and Section 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act. Each purported derivative complaint seeks damages and costs of an unspecified amount, as well as injunctive relief. Discovery has not commenced, and no trial has been scheduled in any of these actions. We intend to defend this litigation vigorously.

A substantially greater number of holders of our common stock are “street name” or beneficial owners, whose shares of record are held by banks, brokers and other financial institutions.

Dividends

We have never paid cash dividends on our common stock or ordinary shares. To the extent we generate earnings, we intend to retain them for use in our business and, therefore, do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future. In addition, our credit facility with Wells Fargo Capital Finance, Inc. contains restrictions on our ability to pay cash dividends on our common stock.

Our customers include Huawei; Alcatel-Lucent; Ciena; Fujitsu Limited; Tellabs, Inc.; Infinera Corporation; Cisco Systems, Inc.; ADVA Optical Networking; NEC Corporation; Nokia-Siemens Networks and Ericsson.

Results of Operations

On June 3, 2009 we announced the signing of a definitive agreement with Newport, under which Newport would acquire our New Focus business in exchange for Newport’s high power laser diodes business. The transaction closed on July 4, 2009. We have classified the financial results of the New Focus business as discontinued operations for all periods presented. The following presentations relate to continuing operations only, unless otherwise indicated.

Revenues

Revenues for the year ended July 2, 2011 increased by $74.0 million, or 19 percent, compared to the year ended July 3, 2010. The increase was primarily from increased product sales attributable to improved market conditions as our sector experienced a rebound from the economic downturn, as compared to the market conditions of calendar year 2009, and from our acquisitions of Mintera in July 2010 and Xtellus in December 2009. During the second half of fiscal year 2011, short-term decreases in demand, including a slowdown of 40 Gb/s deployments in China, and reduced sales as a result of inventory adjustments with many of our customers offset the improved market conditions we have otherwise seen since fiscal year 2010.

For the year ended July 2, 2011, Huawei accounted for $71.7 million, or 15 percent, and Alcatel-Lucent accounted for $50.0 million, or 11 percent, of our revenues. For the year ended July 3, 2010, Huawei accounted for $51.9 million, or 13 percent, of our revenues and Alcatel-Lucent accounted for $39.5 million, or 10 percent, of our revenues.

Cost of Revenues

Our cost of revenues consists of the costs associated with manufacturing our products, and includes the purchase of raw materials, labor costs and related overhead, including stock-based compensation charges and the costs charged by our contract manufacturers for the products they manufacture for us. Charges for excess and obsolete inventory are also included in cost of revenues. Costs and expenses related to our manufacturing resources incurred in connection with the development of new products are included in research and development expense.

Our cost of revenues for the year ended July 2, 2011 increased by $59.1 million, or 21 percent, compared to the year ended July 3, 2010. The increase was primarily related to costs associated with our 19 percent increase in revenues during fiscal year 2011 and from increased costs associated with revenues from our acquisitions of Mintera and Xtellus. We also had a $2.9 million increase in depreciation expense, offset in part by lower costs from having one less week of expenses in fiscal year 2011 compared to fiscal year 2010. Our cost of revenues were also unfavorably impacted by approximately $2.1 million as a result of the Swiss franc strengthening relative to the U.S. dollar and $1.5 million as a result of the U.K. pound sterling strengthening relative to the U.S. dollar.

Gross Profit

Gross profit is calculated as revenues less cost of revenues. Gross margin rate is gross profit reflected as a percentage of revenues.

Our gross margin rate decreased to 27 percent for the year ended July 2, 2011, compared to 28 percent for the year ended July 3, 2010. Our gross profit was unfavorably impacted by approximately $2.1 million as a result of the Swiss franc strengthening relative to the U.S. dollar and $1.5 million as a result of the U.K. pound sterling strengthening relative to the U.S. dollar. In addition, we had a $2.9 million increase in depreciation expense, offset in part by lower costs from having one less week of expenses in fiscal year 2011 compared to fiscal year 2010.

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development expenses consist primarily of salaries and related costs of employees engaged in research and design activities, including stock-based compensation charges related to those employees, costs of design tools and computer hardware, costs related to prototyping and facilities costs for certain research and development focused sites.

Research and development expenses increased by $24.0 million, or 58 percent, for the year ended July 2, 2011, compared to the year ended July 3, 2010. Our research and development expenses increased as we invested to match the rate of our anticipated revenue growth for fiscal year 2011. This includes increased spending on personnel and on materials associated with our product development efforts. The increase was also attributable to research and development associated with increased personnel and product development efforts related to our acquisitions of Mintera in July 2010 and Xtellus in December 2009. These increases were offset in part by having an additional week of expenses during the year ended July 3, 2010 compared to the year ended July 2, 2011. Beginning in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2011, we began to decrease the rate of our investment in research and development in response to changing short-term revenue growth expectations, and expect this trend to continue in our fiscal quarter ended October 1, 2011. We do expect research and development expenses to be higher in amount for the full fiscal year 2012, as compared to the full fiscal year 2011. Personnel-related costs increased to $37.7 million for the year ended July 2, 2011, compared with $26.9 million for the year ended July 3, 2010. Other costs, including engineering materials, the costs of design tools and facilities-related costs increased to $27.8 million for the year ended July 2, 2011, compared with $14.6 million for the year ended July 3, 2010. Research and development expenses were unfavorably impacted by approximately $1.1 million as a result of the U.K. pound sterling strengthening relative to the U.S. dollar and $0.6 million as a result of the Swiss franc strengthening relative to the U.S. dollar.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of personnel-related expenses, including stock-based compensation charges related to employees engaged in sales, general and administrative functions, legal and professional fees, facilities expenses (excluding manufacturing and research and development focused sites), insurance expenses and certain information technology costs.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $6.4 million, or 11 percent, for the year ended July 2, 2011, compared to the year ended July 3, 2010. The increase was primarily due to the increase in costs incurred in connection with recent acquisitions, offset in part by the additional week of expenses during the year ended July 3, 2010. Personnel-related costs increased to $34.9 million for the year ended July 2, 2011, compared with $31.4 million for the year ended July 3, 2010. Other costs, including legal and professional fees, facilities expenses and other miscellaneous expenses, increased to $27.9 million for the year ended July 2, 2011, compared with $25.0 million for the year ended July 3, 2010. Selling, general and administrative expenses were unfavorably impacted by approximately $1.8 million as a result of the U.K. pound sterling strengthening relative to the U.S. dollar and $0.4 million as a result of the Swiss franc strengthening relative to the U.S. dollar.

Amortization of Intangible Assets

Amortization of intangible assets increased to $2.8 million for the year ended July 2, 2011 from $1.0 million for the year ended July 3, 2010. This $1.8 million increase was primarily attributable to our acquisitions of Mintera in July 2010 and Xtellus in December 2009. Specifically, the amortizable base of our intangible assets increased by $11.7 million from our Mintera acquisition and by $7.3 million from our Xtellus acquisition. We expect the amortization of intangible assets to increase from $2.8 million to $2.9 million for fiscal year 2012, $3.2 million for fiscal years 2013 through 2015 and $2.7 million for fiscal year 2016 based on the current level of our intangible assets.

Restructuring, Acquisition and Related Costs

We incurred $1.5 million in employee separation costs during the year ended July 2, 2011 in connection with previously announced restructuring plans, offset by reductions to our restructuring reserve of $0.8 million from revised estimates for employee separation costs, lease cancellation and commitments and other charges. We do not expect to incur significant additional restructuring costs in connection with previously announced restructuring plans.

We also incurred $3.6 million during the year ended July 2, 2011 in external consulting charges associated with our next phase of optimization of past acquisitions as we focus on the associated infrastructure and processes required to support sustainable growth. In addition, we recorded $0.1 million in acquisition-related professional fees during this same period.

Legal Settlements

Legal settlements expense of $1.7 million during the year ended July 2, 2011 includes amounts recorded in connection with a confidential settlement agreement with QinetiQ Limited and for other legal settlements and related legal costs.

Impairment of Goodwill

During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2011, we completed our annual first step analysis for potential impairment of our goodwill, which included examining the impact of current general economic conditions on our future prospects and the current level of our market capitalization. Based on this analysis, including the effect of recent declines in our stock price and market capitalization, we concluded that goodwill related to our WSS reporting unit was impaired. Our WSS reporting unit’s goodwill was originally recorded in connection with our acquisition of Xtellus. During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2011, we also completed our second step analysis of goodwill impairment, determining that the $20.0 million of goodwill related to our WSS reporting unit was fully impaired. Based upon this evaluation, we recorded $20.0 million for the goodwill impairment loss in our consolidated statement of operations for fiscal year 2011.

Gain on Sale of Property and Equipment

For the year ended July 3, 2010, we recorded a net gain of $0.3 million, primarily related to the sale of certain fixed assets in Villebon, France in connection with the closing of that facility.

Other Income (Expense)

Other income (expense) for the year ended July 2, 2011 decreased by $18.2 million compared to the year ended July 3, 2010. This decrease was primarily due to an $11.7 million increase in foreign exchange loss from the non-cash re-measurement of short-term receivables and payables among certain of our wholly-owned international subsidiaries for fluctuations in the U.S. dollar relative to our other local functional currencies during the corresponding periods. This decrease was also due to a $5.3 million in gain from our purchase of Newport’s high-power laser diodes business being recorded during the year ended July 3, 2010 and from a $1.6 million increase in interest expense during the year ended July 2, 2011 related to liabilities recognized in the acquisitions of Xtellus and Mintera.

Income Tax Provision

For the fiscal year ended July 2, 2011, our income tax provision of $1.6 million primarily related to certain of our foreign operations, which operate on a cost-plus basis for services primarily associated with manufacturing and research and development.

In the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2010, we determined that it is more-likely-than-not that we will utilize net operating losses in one of our foreign jurisdictions due to current earnings and projections of future profitability. Accordingly, we released $1.3 million of our valuation allowance against $1.3 million of previously unrecognized deferred tax assets during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2010. This amount represented the entire remaining deferred tax asset related to the accumulated net operating losses of the foreign jurisdiction. Due to the uncertainty surrounding the realization of the tax attributes in other jurisdictions, we have recorded a full valuation allowance against our remaining foreign and domestic deferred tax assets as of July 2, 2011.

Income from Discontinued Operations

No amounts related to revenues, cost of revenues, gross profit or operating expenses were recognized during fiscal years 2011 and 2010 due to the sale of our New Focus business on July 4, 2009. During fiscal year 2010, we recorded income of $1.4 million from discontinued operations from the sale of our New Focus business. For further details, refer to Note 3, Business Combinations, to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Revenues

Revenues for the year ended July 3, 2010 increased by $181.6 million, or 86 percent, compared to the year ended June 27, 2009. The increase was primarily related to our merger with Avanex in April 2009, increased product sales attributable to improved market conditions, as compared to the market conditions of calendar year 2009 as a result of the economic downturn, which resulted in market share gains across the majority of our product areas. The increase was also due to including revenues from our July 2009 acquisition of the Newport laser diode business in our results of operations for the year ended July 3, 2010.

For the year ended July 3, 2010, Huawei accounted for $51.9 million, or 13 percent, of our revenues and Alcatel-Lucent accounted for $39.5 million, or 10 percent, of our revenues. For the year ended June 27, 2009, Huawei accounted for $35.7 million, or 17 percent, of our revenues and Nortel accounted for $29.5 million, or 14 percent, of our revenues.

Cost of Revenues

Our cost of revenues for the year ended July 3, 2010 increased $119.3 million, or 73 percent, from the year ended June 27, 2009. The increase was primarily related to our merger with Avanex in April 2009 and the acquisition of the Newport laser diode business in July 2009, as well as costs associated with higher volumes of revenue resulting from improved market conditions subsequent to the economic downturn of calendar year 2009, which were partially offset by the efficiencies from merger-related synergies and realizing the benefits of previous cost reduction efforts.

Gross Profit

Our gross margin rate increased to 28 percent for the year ended July 3, 2010, compared to 22 percent for the year ended June 27, 2009. The increase in gross margin rate was primarily due to operating leverage from higher revenue volumes, synergies from the merger with Avanex, including related cost reductions and the internal sourcing of Oclaro components into Avanex products, as well as the impact of other cost reduction efforts during fiscal year 2010 and earlier. Gross margin rate was also favorably impacted during the year ended July 3, 2010 relative to year ended June 27, 2009 due to recognizing the costs associated with $2.7 million of products shipped to Nortel in the year ended June 27, 2009, which revenue was deferred in accordance with our revenue recognition policy.

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development expenses increased to $41.5 million for the year ended July 3, 2010 from $26.1 million for the year ended June 27, 2009. The increase was primarily due to an increase in research and development in connection with the merger with Avanex in April 2009, the acquisitions of the Newport laser diode business in July 2009 and Xtellus in December 2009, and increased investment in research and development resources, primarily personnel-related, in an effort to match the rate of our anticipated revenue growth. Research and development expenses in fiscal year 2010 also included one additional week of expenses due to our fiscal calendar. The year ended July 3, 2010 was a 53 week year, while the year ended June 27, 2009 was a 52 week year. Personnel-related costs increased to $26.9 million for the year ended July 3, 2010, compared with $15.3 million for the year ended June 27, 2009. Other costs, including the costs of design tools and facilities-related costs increased to $14.6 million for the year ended July 3, 2010, compared with $10.8 million for the year ended June 27, 2009.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to $56.4 million for the year ended July 3, 2010, from $34.9 million for the year ended June 27, 2009. The increase was primarily due to an increase in costs incurred in connection with the merger with Avanex in April 2009 and the acquisitions of the Newport laser diode business in July 2009 and Xtellus in December 2009, offset in part by synergies related to integrating these operations. Selling, general and administrative expenses in fiscal year 2010 also included one additional week of expenses due to our fiscal calendar. Personnel-related costs increased to $31.4 million for the year ended July 3, 2010, compared with $19.4 million for the year ended June 27, 2009. Other costs, including legal and professional fees, facilities expenses and other miscellaneous expenses increased to $25.0 million for the year ended July 3, 2010, compared with $15.5 million for the year ended June 27, 2009.

Amortization of Intangible Assets

Amortization of intangible assets increased to $1.0 million for the year ended July 3, 2010 from $0.5 million in the year ended June 27, 2009. This $0.5 million increase was driven by acquisitions during fiscal year 2010. Specifically, the amortizable base of our intangible assets increased in the year ended July 3, 2010 by $1.8 million from our Newport acquisition, $7.3 million from our Xtellus acquisition and $0.7 million from an asset purchase.

Restructuring, Acquisition and Related Costs

For the year ended July 3, 2010, we accrued $0.4 million in expenses, net of adjustments, for revised estimates related to lease cancellations and commitments and $2.2 million in employee separation costs in connection with cost reduction and restructuring plans implemented in prior years. During the year ended July 3, 2010, we also initiated a new restructuring plan resulting from our acquisition of the Newport laser diode business. This plan involves the transfer of laser diode manufacturing operations from Tucson, Arizona to our European manufacturing facilities. We incurred $0.5 million in restructuring accruals for employee separation charges under the Newport plan. During the year ended July 3, 2010, we also wrote-down $0.8 million in inventory, net of adjustments, which became impaired through the integration of our WSS product lines.

During the year ended July 3, 2010, we also recorded $2.5 million for acquisition-related costs, which include $1.5 million of professional fees and $1.0 million in employee retention payments payable in connection with the acquisition of Xtellus. During the second half of fiscal year 2010, we reassessed the fair value of the value protection liability related to our Xtellus acquisition determining that the fair value of this liability declined from $0.9 million at January 2, 2010 to nil at July 3, 2010. This $0.9 million change in fair value was recognized as a reduction to acquisition-related costs during the year ended July 3, 2010.

Legal Settlement

In April 2009, we settled our outstanding litigation with a competitor, which resulted in us recording $4.0 million in legal settlement expenses during the year ended June 27, 2009. Of this amount, $3.0 million represents settlement payments paid to the competitor and $1.0 million represents legal fees incurred in connection with the litigation and settlement. Legal fees during the year ended June 27, 2009 were partially offset by a $0.2 million benefit from the settlement of a legal action in connection with our sale of land in Swindon, U.K. to a third-party in 2005.

Impairment of Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

During the year ended June 27, 2009 we determined that the goodwill related to our New Focus and Avalon reporting units was fully impaired, and we therefore recorded a $7.9 million goodwill impairment charge. In conjunction with our review of goodwill, we recorded $1.2 million for the impairment loss related to certain intangible assets related to our Avalon reporting unit in our fiscal year 2009 statement of operations. The impairment charges will not result in any current or future cash expenditures.

Gain on Sale of Property and Equipment

During the year ended July 3, 2010, we recorded a net gain of $0.3 million, primarily related to the sale of certain fixed assets in Villebon, France made surplus in connection with the closing of that facility.

Other Income (Expense)

Other income (expense) for the year ended July 3, 2010 decreased by $3.4 million compared to the year ended June 27, 2009. This decrease primarily resulted from an $8.6 million decrease in gain from the re-measurement of short-term receivables and payables for fluctuations in the U.S. dollar relative to our other local functional currencies during the corresponding periods among certain of our wholly-owned international subsidiaries and a $0.5 million decrease in interest income due to lower average interest rates, which was partially offset by a $5.3 million gain from the bargain purchase of the high-power laser diodes business from Newport on July 4, 2009.

Income Tax Provision

For the year ended July 3, 2010, our income tax provision of $0.9 million primarily related to $2.2 million in current income taxes from our operations in Italy, China and the United States, partially offset by a release of $1.3 million in our valuation allowance.

In the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2010, we determined that it is more-likely-than-not that we will utilize net operating losses in one of our foreign jurisdictions due to current earnings and projections of future profitability. Accordingly, we released $1.3 million of our valuation allowance against $1.3 million of previously unrecognized deferred tax assets during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2010. This amount represents the entire remaining deferred tax asset related to the accumulated net operating losses of the foreign jurisdiction. Due to the uncertainty surrounding the realization of the tax attributes in other jurisdictions, we have recorded a full valuation allowance against our remaining foreign and domestic deferred tax assets as of July 3, 2010.

Income (Loss) From Discontinued Operations

The following table sets forth the results of the discontinued operations of our New Focus business, which was sold on July 4, 2009, for the fiscal years ended July 3, 2010 and June 27, 2009 and the year-over-year increase (decrease) in our results:

		Year Ended

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash flows from Operating Activities

Net cash used by operating activities for the year ended July 2, 2011 was $4.6 million, primarily resulting from a net loss of $46.4 million and by a $1.7 million decrease in cash due to changes in operating assets and liabilities, largely offset by $43.5 million in non-cash adjustments to our net loss. The $1.7 million decrease in cash due to changes in operating assets and liabilities was comprised of a $30.9 million increase in inventory, a $1.9 million decrease in accrued expenses and other liabilities, a $0.3 million increase in prepaid expenses and other current assets and a $0.2 million increase in other non-current assets, offset in part by cash generated from a $20.7 million decrease in accounts receivable and a $10.8 million increase in accounts payable. The $43.5 million in non-cash adjustments consisted of a $20.0 million charge for impairment of goodwill, $18.1 million of expense related to depreciation and amortization and $6.3 million of expense related to stock-based compensation, offset in part by $0.9 million from the amortization of deferred gain from a sales-leaseback transaction.

Net cash used by operating activities for the year ended July 3, 2010 was $5.3 million, primarily resulting from a $25.1 million decrease in cash due to changes in operating assets and liabilities, partially offset by net income of $12.4 million and non-cash adjustments to net income of $7.4 million. The $25.1 million decrease in cash due to changes in operating assets and liabilities was comprised of a $34.9 million increase in accounts receivable, a $7.6 million decrease in accrued expenses and other liabilities and an increase of $2.4 million in prepaid expenses and other current assets, offset in part by cash generated from a $15.4 million increase in accounts payable, a $3.3 million decrease in inventory and a $1.1 million decrease in other non-current assets. The $7.4 million in non-cash adjustments primarily consisted of $11.8 million of expense related to depreciation and amortization and $4.4 million of expense related to stock-based compensation, offset in part by $5.3 million in gain from the bargain purchase of the high-power laser diodes business from Newport, $1.4 million in gain from the sale of the New Focus business, $0.9 million from the amortization of deferred gain from a sales-leaseback transaction, $0.9 million from the change in fair value of the value protection guarantee related to the Xtellus acquisition and $0.3 million in gain from the sale of property and equipment.

Net cash used in operating activities for the year ended June 27, 2009 was $3.1 million, resulting from the net loss of $32.2 million offset by non-cash adjustments of $28.5 million, primarily consisting of an $11.9 million charge for impairment of goodwill and other intangible assets, $12.5 million of expense related to depreciation and amortization of certain assets and $4.4 million of expense related to stock-based compensation. Cash also increased $0.5 million from a net change in our operating assets and liabilities, excluding those assets and liabilities assumed in our merger with Avanex, due to a $6.9 million decrease in inventories and $0.7 million decrease in prepaid expenses and other current and non-current assets, which were partially offset by a $5.6 million decrease in accounts payable, a $0.7 million decrease in accrued liabilities and a $0.8 million increase in accounts receivable.

Cash flows from Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities for the year ended July 2, 2011 was $47.9 million, primarily consisting of $41.6 million used in capital expenditures to support new product introductions and our anticipated revenue growth and $10.5 million used in the acquisition of Mintera, partially offset by a reduction of $4.0 million in restricted cash related to facility leases from which we exited during fiscal year 2011 and $0.2 million in proceeds from the sale of certain fixed assets.

Net cash used in investing activities for the year ended July 3, 2010 was $6.7 million, primarily consisting of $12.1 million used in capital expenditures, $7.5 million used to acquire an equity interest in ClariPhy Communications, Inc., a privately-held company, and $0.3 million used to acquire intangible assets, equipment and inventory through an asset purchase, which were partially offset by $9.3 million in sales and maturities of available-for-sale investments, $3.3 million in cash acquired from business combinations and $0.9 million in proceeds from the sale of certain fixed assets.

Net cash provided by investing activities for the year ended June 27, 2009 was $21.4 million, primarily consisting of $29.2 million in sales and maturities of available-for-sale investments and $11.5 million in cash acquired in the merger with Avanex, which were partially offset by $9.2 million used in capital expenditures, $6.9 million used to purchase available-for-sale investments and $3.1 million in additional required restricted cash related to lease obligations assumed in the merger with Avanex.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities of $2.7 million for the year ended July 2, 2011 resulted from $2.4 million received from issuance of common stock, primarily through stock option exercises, and from $0.3 million in additional proceeds related to our May 2010 follow-on stock offering due to finalization of our previous estimates of offering-related expenses.

Net cash of $77.3 million provided by financing activities for the year ended July 3, 2010 primarily resulted from $77.1 million in proceeds, net of estimated expenses and commissions, from an underwritten public offering of 6.9 million shares of our common stock at a price to the public of $12.00 per share. During fiscal year 2010 we received $2.5 million in net proceeds from borrowings under our Amended Credit Agreement, which was entirely repaid within the fiscal year, and also received $0.3 million from issuance of common stock primarily through stock option exercises.

There were no significant cash flows from financing activities for the year ended June 27, 2009.

Effect of Exchange Rates on Cash and Cash Equivalents for the Years Ended July 2, 2011, July 3, 2010 and June 27, 2009

The effect of exchange rates on cash and cash equivalents for the year ended July 2, 2011 was an increase of $5.4 million, which included $1.5 million in net gain due to the revaluation of foreign currency cash balances to the functional currency of the respective subsidiaries and from gains of approximately $2.2 million related to the revaluation of U.S. dollar denominated operating intercompany payables of our subsidiaries.

The effect of exchange rates on cash and cash equivalents for year ended July 3, 2010 was a decrease of $2.8 million, primarily consisting of a loss of approximately $1.4 million related to the revaluation of U.S. dollar denominated operating intercompany payables on the books of our U.K. subsidiary and from $1.0 million in net loss due to the revaluation of foreign currency cash balances to the functional currency of the respective subsidiaries.

The effect of exchange rates on cash and cash equivalents for the year ended June 27, 2009 was a decrease of $6.5 million, primarily consisting of approximately $1.1 million in net gain due to the revaluation of foreign currency cash balances to the functional currency of the respective subsidiaries and a gain of approximately $6.6 million related to the revaluation of U.S. dollar denominated operating intercompany receivables on the books of our U.K. subsidiary, which were partially offset by $1.2 million of other miscellaneous increases in cash and cash equivalents due to the effects of exchange rates.

Credit Facility

On August 2, 2006, Oclaro, Inc., along with Oclaro Technology Ltd., Oclaro Photonics, Inc. and Oclaro Technology, Inc., each a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (collectively the “Original Borrowers”), entered into a credit agreement, or the “Original Credit Agreement,” with Wells Fargo Capital Finance, Inc. and certain other lenders, which Original Credit Agreement has previously been amended from time to time.

On July 26, 2011, Oclaro Technology Ltd., as “Borrower,” and Oclaro, Inc., as “Parent,” entered into an amendment and restatement to the Original Credit Agreement with Wells Fargo Capital Finance, Inc. and the other lenders party thereto regarding the senior secured revolving credit facility, increasing the facility size from $25 million to $45 million and extending the term thereof to August 1, 2014 (the “Credit Agreement”). Under the Credit Agreement, advances are available based on 80 percent of “qualified accounts receivable,” as defined in the Credit Agreement.

The obligations of the Borrower under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by Parent and all significant subsidiaries of Parent and Borrower (collectively, the “Guarantors”), and are secured, pursuant to two security agreements (the “Security Agreements”), by substantially all of the assets of Borrower and Guarantors, including a pledge of the capital stock holdings of the Borrower and certain Guarantors in their direct subsidiaries.

Borrowings made under the Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate based on either the London Interbank Offered Rate plus 2.50 percentage points or the bank’s prime rate plus 1.50 percentage points. In the absence of an event of default, any amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement may be repaid and re-borrowed at any time until maturity, which is August 1, 2014.

The Credit Agreement contains negative covenants applicable to Parent, Borrower and their subsidiaries, including a financial covenant that, on a consolidated basis, requires Parent to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of no less than 1.10 to 1.00, if Parent and its subsidiaries have not maintained “minimum liquidity” (defined as $15 million of qualified cash and excess availability, each as defined in the Credit Agreement). The Credit Agreement also contains restrictions on liens, certain investments, indebtedness, fundamental changes to the Borrower’s business, certain dispositions of property, making certain restricted payments (including restrictions on dividends and stock repurchases), entering into new lines of business and transactions with affiliates.

The obligations of the Borrower under the Credit Agreement may be accelerated upon the occurrence of an event of default under the Credit Agreement, which includes customary events of default, including payment defaults, defaults in the performance of affirmative and negative covenants, the inaccuracy of representations or warranties, a cross-default related to indebtedness in an aggregate amount of $2.0 million or more, bankruptcy and insolvency related defaults, defaults relating to such matters as the Employee Retirement Income Security Act, certain judgments in excess of $2.0 million and a change of control default.

In connection with the Credit Agreement, the Borrower paid a closing fee of $250,000 and agreed to pay a monthly servicing fee of $3,000 and a variable unused line fee equal to between 0.375 and 0.50 percentage points per annum, payable monthly on the unused amount of revolving credit commitments. To the extent there are letters of credit outstanding under the Credit Agreement, the Borrower is obligated to pay the administrative agent a letter of credit fee at a rate equal to 3.3 percentage points per annum.

As of July 2, 2011 and July 3, 2010, there were no amounts outstanding under the Original Credit Agreement. At July 2, 2011 and July 3, 2010, there were $1.1 million and $2.0 million, respectively, in outstanding standby letters of credit with vendors secured under the Original Credit Agreement and subsequently under the Credit Agreement. The outstanding standby letters of credit for $1.1 million expire at various intervals through April 2014.

Future Cash Requirements

As of July 2, 2011, we held $62.8 million in cash and cash equivalents and $0.6 million in restricted cash. We expect that our cash flows from operations, together with our current cash balances and amounts expected to be available under our Credit Agreement, which are based on a percentage of eligible accounts receivable (as defined in the Credit Agreement), will provide us with sufficient financial resources in order to operate as a going concern through at least fiscal year 2012. In the future, in order to strengthen our financial position, in the event of unforeseen circumstances, or in the event we need to fund our growth in future financial periods, we may need to raise additional funds by any one or a combination of the following: (i) issuing equity securities, (ii) incurring indebtedness secured by our assets, (iii) issuing debt and/or convertible debt securities, or (iv) selling product lines and/or portions of our business. There can be no guarantee that we will be able to raise additional funds on terms acceptable to us, or at all.

From time to time, we have engaged in discussions with third parties concerning potential acquisitions of product lines, technologies and businesses, such as our merger with Avanex, our acquisitions of Xtellus and Mintera, and our exchange of assets agreement with Newport. We continue to consider potential acquisition candidates. Any such transactions could result in us issuing significant number of new equity or debt securities (including promissory notes), the incurrence or assumption of debt, and the utilization of our cash and cash equivalents. We may also be required to raise additional funds to complete any such acquisition, through either the issuance of equity securities and/or borrowings. If we raise additional funds or acquire businesses or technologies through the issuance of equity securities, our existing stockholders may experience significant dilution.

Risk Management — Foreign Currency Risk

As our business is multinational in scope, we are increasingly subject to fluctuations based upon changes in the exchange rates between the currencies in which we collect revenues and pay expenses. In the future, we expect that a majority of our revenues will be denominated in U.S. dollars, while a significant portion of our expenses will continue to be denominated in U.K. pounds sterling and the Swiss franc. Fluctuations in the exchange rate between the U.S. dollar, the U.K. pound sterling and the Swiss franc and, to a lesser extent, other currencies in which we collect revenues and pay expenses could affect our operating results. This includes the Chinese yuan, the Korean won, the Israeli shekel and the Euro in which we pay expenses in connection with operating our facilities in Shenzhen and Shanghai, China; Daejeon, South Korea; Jerusalem, Israel and San Donato, Italy. To the extent the exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and these currencies were to fluctuate more significantly than experienced to date, our exposure would increase. We enter into foreign currency forward exchange contracts in an effort to mitigate a portion of our exposure to such fluctuations between the U.S. dollar and the U.K. pound sterling, and we may be required to convert currencies to meet our obligations. Under certain circumstances, foreign currency forward exchange contracts can have an adverse effect on our financial condition. As of July 2, 2011, we held five foreign currency forward exchange contracts with a notional value of $4.0 million which include put and call options which expire, or expired, at various dates from July 2011 to November 2011. As of July 2, 2011, we recorded an unrealized gain of $0.1 million to accumulated other comprehensive income in connection with marking these contracts to fair value.

Contractual Obligations

Our contractual obligations at July 2, 2011, by nature of the obligation and amount due over identified periods of time, are set out in the table below:

		Operating				Sublease				Purchase				Long-Term
		Leases				Income				Obligations				Obligations
		(Thousands)
Fiscal Year:
2012		$	6,653			$	(238	)		$	86,888			$	138
2013			4,206				(128	)			—				7
2014			3,634				(128	)			—				—
2015			3,425				(84	)			—				—
2016			3,334				(62	)			—				—
Thereafter			24,039				—				—				—
		$	45,291			$	(640	)		$	86,888			$	145

The purchase obligations consist of our total outstanding purchase order commitments at July 2, 2011. Any capital purchases to which we are committed are included in these outstanding purchase order commitments. Operating leases are future annual commitments under non-cancelable operating leases, including rents payable for land and buildings.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We indemnify our directors and certain employees as permitted by law, and have entered into indemnification agreements with our directors and executive officers. We have not recorded a liability associated with these indemnification arrangements as we historically have not incurred any material costs associated with such indemnification obligations. Costs associated with such indemnification obligations may be mitigated by insurance coverage that we maintain, however, such insurance may not cover any, or may cover only a portion of, the amounts we may be required to pay. In addition, we may not be able to maintain such insurance coverage in the future.

We also have indemnification clauses in various contracts that we enter into in the normal course of business, such as indemnifications in favor of customers in respect of liabilities they may incur as a result of purchasing our products should such products infringe the intellectual property rights of a third party. We have not historically paid out any material amounts related to these indemnifications; therefore, no accrual has been made for these indemnifications.

Other than as set forth above, we are not currently party to any material off-balance sheet arrangements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

See Note 1, Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for information regarding the effect of new accounting pronouncements on our consolidated financial statements.

Application of Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or U.S. GAAP. The preparation of our financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect our reported assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses and other financial information. Actual results may differ significantly from those based on our estimates and judgments or could have been materially different if we had used different assumptions, estimates or conditions. In addition, our financial condition and results of operations could vary due to a change in the application of a particular accounting standard.

We regard an accounting estimate or assumption underlying our financial statements as a “critical accounting estimate” where:

•

the nature of the estimate or assumption is material due to the level of subjectivity and judgment necessary to account for highly uncertain matters or the susceptibility of such matters to change; and

•

the impact of such estimates and assumptions on our financial condition or operating performance is material.

Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 1, Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Not all of these significant accounting policies, however, require that we make estimates and assumptions that we believe are “critical accounting estimates.” We have discussed our accounting policies with the audit committee of our board of directors, and we believe that the policies described below involve critical accounting estimates.

Revenue Recognition and Sales Returns

Revenue represents the amounts, excluding sales taxes, derived from the sale of goods and services to third-party customers during a given period. Specifically, we recognize product revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the product has been shipped, title has transferred, collectability is reasonably assured, fees are fixed or determinable and there are no uncertainties with respect to customer acceptance. For certain sales, we are required to determine, in particular, whether the delivery has occurred, whether items will be returned and whether we will be paid under normal commercial terms. For certain products sold to customers, we specify delivery terms in the agreement under which the sale was made and assess each shipment against those terms, and only recognize revenue when we are certain that the delivery terms have been met. We record a provision for estimated sales returns in the same period as the related revenues are recorded, which is netted against revenue. These estimates for sales returns are based on historical sales return rates, other known factors and our return policy. Before accepting a new customer, we review publicly available information and credit rating databases to provide ourselves with reasonable assurance that the new customer will pay all outstanding amounts in accordance with our standard terms. For existing customers, we monitor historic payment patterns and we perform ongoing credit evaluations to assess whether we can expect payment in accordance with the terms set forth in the agreement under which the sale was made.

We recognize revenues from financially distressed customers when collectability becomes reasonably assured, assuming all other above criteria for revenue recognition have been met. In fiscal year 2009 we issued billings of $4.1 million for products that were shipped to Nortel, but for which payment was not received prior to Nortel’s bankruptcy filing on January 14, 2009. As a result, the corresponding revenue was deferred, and therefore was not recognized as revenues or accounts receivable in the consolidated financial statements at the time of such billings, as we determined that such amounts were not reasonably assured of collectability in accordance with our revenue recognition policy. As of July 2, 2011, we had remaining contractual receivables from Nortel totaling $2.7 million which are not reflected in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. To the extent that collectability becomes reasonably assured for these deferred billings in future periods, our future results of operations will benefit from the recognition of these amounts.

Inventory Valuation

In general, our inventories are valued at the lower of cost to acquire or manufacture our products or market value, less write-offs of inventory we believe could prove to be unsalable. Manufacturing costs include the cost of the components purchased to produce our products and related labor and overhead. We review our inventory on a quarterly basis to determine if it is saleable. Products may be unsalable because they are technically obsolete due to substitute products, specification changes or excess inventory relative to customer forecasts. We currently reduce the cost basis for inventory using methods that take these factors into account. If we find that the cost of inventory is greater than the current market price, we will write the inventory down to the estimated selling price, less the estimated cost to complete and sell the product.

Business Combinations

Through June 27, 2009, we accounted for our acquisitions using the purchase accounting method in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141 (“SFAS No. 141”), Business Combinations. Under this method, we allocated the purchase price of acquired companies to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, based on their estimated relative fair values at the acquisition date, with any excess allocated to goodwill (defined as the excess of the purchase price over the fair value allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed). Our judgments as to fair value of the assets, therefore, affected the amount of goodwill that we recorded. These judgments included estimating the useful lives over which the fair values are or were amortized to expense.

For tangible assets acquired in any acquisition, such as plant and equipment, we estimate useful lives by considering comparable lives of similar assets, past history, the intended use of the assets and their condition. In estimating the useful life of acquired intangible assets with definite lives, we consider the industry environment and specific factors relating to each product relative to our business strategy and the likelihood of technological obsolescence. Acquired intangible assets primarily include core and current technology, patents, supply agreements, capitalized licenses and customer contracts. We amortize our acquired intangible assets with definite lives over periods generally ranging from 1.5 to 11 years and, in the case of one specific customer contract, 15 years.

Our acquisitions consummated after June 27, 2009, including the acquisition of the high-power laser diodes business from Newport on July 4, 2009 and our acquisitions of Xtellus on December 17, 2009 and Mintera on July 21, 2010, were accounted for pursuant to Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 805, Business Combinations. Under ASC Topic 805, there are significant differences as compared to SFAS No. 141 in determining the purchase price of an acquired entity, including:

•

Under ASC Topic 805, the purchase price is equivalent to the fair value of consideration transferred on the date of the business combination. Previously, the value of equity-based consideration transferred was determined based on the fair value at the time of announcement of the business combination.

•

Tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date are recorded at the acquisition date fair value. Such valuations require management to make significant estimates and assumptions, especially with respect to the identifiable intangible assets.

•

Goodwill is recognized for any excess of purchase price over the net fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. A bargain purchase gain results if the fair value of the purchase price is less than the net fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. We recorded a $5.3 million bargain purchase gain related to our acquisition of Newport’s high-power laser diodes business during fiscal year 2010.

Management makes estimates of fair value based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable and that of a market participant. For instance, the estimated fair value of our common stock issued in connection with our acquisition of Xtellus was determined using the closing price of $6.70 per share as of the acquisition date, December 17, 2009, adjusted by a discount rate to reflect the lack of marketability due to the shares being unregistered and subject to restrictions on transfer under Rule 144 of the Securities Act. In addition, the estimated fair value of the value protection guarantee issued in connection with the Xtellus acquisition was determined by using management estimates of future operating results and a Monte Carlo simulation model to determine the likelihood of achieving certain market conditions. For our Mintera acquisition, we agreed to pay additional revenue-based consideration whereby former security holders of Mintera are entitled to receive up to $20.0 million, determined based on a set of sliding scale formulas, to the extent revenue from Mintera products is more than $29.0 million in the 12 months following the acquisition and/or more than $40.0 million in the 18 months following the acquisition. The estimated fair value of these obligations were determined using management estimates of the total amounts expected to be paid based on estimated operating results, discounted to their present value using our incremental borrowing cost.

Our preliminary estimates of fair value are inherently uncertain and subject to refinement. As a result, during the measurement period for a business combination, which may be up to one year, we may record adjustments to the values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. After the conclusion of the measurement period or our final determination of the values of assets acquired or liabilities assumed, whichever comes first, subsequent adjustments affecting earnings are recorded within our consolidated statements of operations.

As a result of adopting the revised accounting standards provided for by ASC Topic 805 as of the beginning of our fiscal year 2010, certain of our policies differ when accounting for acquisitions consummated after June 27, 2009, including:

•

the direct transaction costs associated with a business combination are expensed as incurred (previously, direct transaction costs were included as part of the purchase price);

•

the costs to exit or restructure certain activities of an acquired company are accounted for separately from the business combination (previously, restructuring and exit costs directly resulting from the business combination were included as a part of the assumed obligations in deriving the purchase price allocation); and

•

the fair value of in-process research and development is recorded as an indefinite-lived intangible asset until the underlying project is completed, at which time the intangible asset is amortized over its estimated useful life, or abandoned, at which time the intangible asset is expensed (previously, in-process research and development was expensed as of the acquisition date).

Impairment of Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

Goodwill is tested annually for impairment, in our case during the fourth quarter of each fiscal year, or more often if an event or circumstance suggests impairment has occurred. In addition, we review identifiable intangibles, excluding goodwill, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Circumstances which could trigger an impairment test include, but are not limited to, significant decreases in the market price of the asset, significant adverse changes to the business climate or legal factors, current period cash flow or operating losses or a forecast of continuing losses associated with the use of the asset and a current expectation that the asset will more likely than not be sold or disposed of significantly below carrying value before the end of its estimated useful life.

The first step of testing goodwill for impairment is based on a reporting unit’s “fair value,” which is generally determined through market prices. In certain cases, due to the absence of market prices for a particular element of our business, we have elected to base our testing on discounted future expected cash flows. Although the discount rates and other input variables may differ, the model we use in this process is the same model we use to evaluate the fair value of acquisition candidates and the fairness of offers to purchase businesses that we are considering for divestiture. The forecasted cash flows we use are derived from the annual long-range planning process that we perform and present to our board of directors. In this process, each reporting unit is required to develop reasonable sales, earnings and cash flow forecasts for the next three to seven years based on current and forecasted economic conditions. For purposes of testing for impairment, the cash flow forecasts are adjusted as needed to reflect information that becomes available concerning changes in business levels and general economic trends. The discount rates used for determining discounted future cash flows are generally based on our weighted-average cost of capital and are then adjusted for “plan risk” (the risk that a business will fail to achieve its forecasted results) and “country risk” (the risk that economic or political instability in the countries in which we operate will cause a business unit’s projections to be inaccurate). Finally, a growth factor beyond the three to seven-year period for which cash flows are planned is selected based on expectations of future economic conditions. Virtually all of the assumptions used in our models are susceptible to change due to global and regional economic conditions as well as competitive factors in the industry in which we operate. Unanticipated changes in discount rates from one year to the next can also have a significant effect on the results of the calculations. While we believe the estimates and assumptions we use are reasonable, various economic factors could cause the results of our goodwill testing to vary significantly.

During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2011, we completed our annual first step analysis for potential impairment of our goodwill, which included examining the impact of current general economic conditions on our future prospects and the current level of our market capitalization. Based on this analysis, we concluded that goodwill related to our WSS reporting unit was impaired. Our WSS reporting unit’s goodwill was originally recorded in connection with our acquisition of Xtellus. During the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2011, we also completed our second step analysis of goodwill impairment, determining that the $20.0 million of goodwill related to our WSS reporting unit was fully impaired. Based upon this evaluation, we recorded $20.0 million for the goodwill impairment loss in our consolidated statement of operations for fiscal year 2011. In conjunction with our second step goodwill impairment analysis, we also evaluated the fair value of the intangible assets of this reporting unit and concluded that such assets were not impaired.

During the fiscal year ended June 27, 2009, we observed indicators of potential impairment of our goodwill, including the impact of the then current general economic downturn, our future prospects and the continued decline of our market capitalization, which caused us to conduct a goodwill impairment analysis. Specifically, indicators emerged within our New Focus reporting unit, which includes the technology acquired in the March 2004 acquisition of Oclaro Photonics, Inc. and one other reporting unit that included the technology acquired in the March 2006 acquisition of Avalon Photonics AG (the Avalon reporting unit). These indicators led us to conclude that an impairment test was required to be performed for goodwill related to these reporting units.

During the fiscal year ended June 27, 2009, we determined, in our first step goodwill impairment analysis, that the goodwill related to our New Focus and Avalon reporting units were in fact impaired. We completed our full evaluation of the second step impairment analysis, which indicated that the goodwill was fully impaired. We recorded $7.9 million for impairment losses in our statement of operations for the year ended June 27, 2009.

In conjunction with our full evaluation of the second step goodwill impairment analysis, we also evaluated the fair value of the intangible assets of these two reporting units. Based on this testing, we determined that the intangibles of our New Focus reporting unit and our Avalon reporting units were impaired. We recorded $1.2 million for the impairment loss related to these intangibles, net of $2.8 million associated with the discontinued operations of the New Focus business, in our statements of operations for the year ended June 27, 2009.

These impairments will not result in any current or future cash expenditures.

Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation

We recognize in our statement of operations all stock-based compensation, including grants of employee stock options and restricted stock, based on their fair values on the grant dates. Estimating the grant date fair value of employee stock options requires us to make judgments in the determination of inputs into the Black-Scholes-Merton valuation model which we use to arrive at an estimate of the fair value for such awards. These inputs are based upon highly subjective assumptions as to the volatility of the underlying stock, risk free interest rates and the expected life of the options. Judgment is also required in estimating the number of share-based awards that are expected to be forfeited during any given period. As required under the accounting rules, we review our valuation assumptions at each grant date, and, as a result, our valuation assumptions used to value employee stock options granted in future periods may change. If actual results or future changes in estimates differ significantly from our current estimates, stock-based compensation expense and our consolidated results of operations could be materially impacted. During the years ended July 2, 2011, July 3, 2010 and June 27, 2009, we recognized $6.3 million, $4.4 million and $4.1 million of stock-based compensation expense, respectively, in our results from continuing operations. See Note 11, Stock-based Compensation, to the accompanying consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for further information.

Income Taxes

We account for income taxes using an asset and liability based approach. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recorded based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates. Valuation allowances are provided against deferred income tax assets which are not likely to be realized.

In fiscal year 2010, we determined that it is more-likely-than-not that we will utilize net operating losses in one of our foreign jurisdictions due to current earnings and projections of future profitability. Accordingly, we released $1.3 million of our valuation allowance against $1.3 million of previously unrecognized deferred tax assets during fiscal year 2010. This amount represented the entire remaining deferred tax asset related to the accumulated net operating losses of the foreign jurisdiction. Due to the uncertainty surrounding the realization of the tax attributes in other jurisdictions, we have recorded a full valuation allowance against our remaining foreign and domestic deferred tax assets as of July 2, 2011.

Item 7A.		Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Interest rates

We finance our operations through a mixture of issuances of equity securities, finance leases, working capital and by drawing on our Credit Agreement. Our only exposure to interest rate fluctuations is on our cash deposits and for amounts borrowed under our Credit Agreement. At July 2, 2011 there was no amount outstanding under our Credit Agreement. As of July 2, 2011, we had $1.1 million in three outstanding standby letters of credit with vendors secured under our Credit Agreement.

We monitor our interest rate risk on cash balances primarily through cash flow forecasting. Cash that is surplus to immediate requirements is invested in short-term deposits with banks accessible with one day’s notice and invested in overnight money market accounts. We believe our current interest rate risk is immaterial.

Foreign currency

As our business has grown and become multinational in scope, we have become increasingly subject to fluctuations based upon changes in the exchange rates between the currencies in which we collect revenues and pay expenses. Despite our change in domicile from the United Kingdom to the United States in 2004, and our movement of certain functions, including assembly and test operations, from the United Kingdom to China, in the future we expect that a majority of our revenues will continue to be denominated in U.S. dollars, while a significant portion of our expenses will continue to be denominated in U.K. pounds sterling and the Swiss franc. Fluctuations in the exchange rate between the U.S. dollar, the U.K. pound sterling and the Swiss franc and, to a lesser extent, other currencies in which we collect revenues and pay expenses, could affect our operating results. This includes the Chinese yuan, the Korean won, the Israeli shekel and the Euro in which we pay expenses in connection with operating our facilities in Shenzhen and Shanghai, China; Daejeon, South Korea; Jerusalem, Israel and San Donato, Italy. To the extent the exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and these currencies were to fluctuate more significantly than experienced to date, our exposure would increase.

As of July 2, 2011, our U.K. subsidiary had $45.3 million, net, in U.S. dollar denominated operating intercompany payables and $59.5 million in U.S. dollar denominated accounts receivable related to sales to external customers. It is estimated that a 10 percent fluctuation in the U.S. dollar relative to the U.K. pound sterling would lead to a profit of $1.4 million (U.S. dollar strengthening), or loss of $1.4 million (U.S. dollar weakening) on the translation of these receivables, which would be recorded as gain (loss) on foreign exchange in our consolidated statement of operations.

Hedging Program

We enter into foreign currency forward exchange contracts in an effort to mitigate a portion of our exposure to such fluctuations between the U.S. dollar and the U.K. pound sterling. We do not currently hedge our exposure to the Chinese yuan, Korean won, Israeli shekel, Swiss franc or the Euro, but we may in the future if conditions warrant. We also do not currently hedge our exposure related to our U.S. dollar denominated intercompany payables and receivables. We may be required to convert currencies to meet our obligations. Under certain circumstances, foreign currency forward exchange contracts can have an adverse effect on our financial condition. As of July 2, 2011, we held five foreign currency forward exchange contracts with a notional value of $4.0 million which include put and call options which expire, or expired, at various dates from July 2011 to November 2011 and we have recorded an unrealized gain of $0.1 million to accumulated other comprehensive income in connection with marking these contracts to fair value. It is estimated that a 10 percent fluctuation in the dollar between July 2, 2011 and the maturity dates of the put and call instruments underlying these contracts would lead to a profit of $0.4 million (U.S. dollar weakening) or break-even (U.S. dollar strengthening) on our outstanding foreign currency forward exchange contracts, should they be held to maturity.

The financial statements required by this item may be found on pages F-1 through F-40 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Item 9.		Changes in and Disagreements With Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure

None.

Item 9A.		Controls and Procedures

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of July 2, 2011. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as the principal executive and financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of July 2, 2011, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

Management’s report on our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) is included immediately below and is incorporated herein by reference.

(b) Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over our financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements, fraud or the results of fraud. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of July 2, 2011. In making its assessment of internal control over financial reporting, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control — Integrated Framework.

Based on our assessment, management concluded that, as of July 2, 2011, our internal control over financial reporting is effective based on these criteria.

Our independent registered public accounting firm has issued an attestation report on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. This report appears under Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

(c) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the most recent fiscal quarter ended July 2, 2011 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Board of Directors and Stockholders
Oclaro, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Oclaro, Inc. (a Delaware corporation) and subsidiaries as of July 2, 2011 and July 3, 2010, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and comprehensive income (loss), and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended July 2, 2011. Our audits of the basic consolidated financial statements included the financial statement schedule listed in the index appearing under Item 15 (a) (2). These financial statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial statement schedule based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Oclaro, Inc. and subsidiaries as of July 2, 2011 and July 3, 2010, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended July 2, 2011 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), Oclaro, Inc. and subsidiaries’ internal control over financial reporting as of July 2, 2011, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) and our report dated September 9, 2011, expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Board of Directors and Stockholders
Oclaro, Inc.

We have audited Oclaro, Inc. (a Delaware corporation) and subsidiaries’ internal control over financial reporting as of July 2, 2011, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Oclaro, Inc.’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on Oclaro Inc.’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, Oclaro, Inc. and subsidiaries maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of July 2, 2011, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by COSO.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets of Oclaro, Inc. and subsidiaries as of July 2, 2011 and July 3, 2010, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and comprehensive income (loss), and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended July 2, 2011. Our audits of the basic financial statements included the financial statement schedule listed in the index appearing under Item 15(a)(2). Our report dated September 9, 2011 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.
