Note 1
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Integrated Device Technology, Inc. (“IDT” or the “Company”) contain all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to state fairly the interim financial information included therein. Certain prior period balances have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. The year-end condensed balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The Company’s fiscal year is the 52- or 53-week period ending on the Sunday closest to March 31. In a 52-week year, each fiscal quarter consists of 13 weeks. In a 53-week year, the additional week is usually added to the third quarter, making such quarter consist of 14 weeks. The third quarter of fiscal 2011 was a fourteen week period, while the third quarter of fiscal 2010 was a thirteen week period.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the Company’s financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 28, 2010. Operating results for the three and nine months ended January 2, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of operating results for an entire fiscal year.

Significant Accounting Policies
Investments:
Available-for-Sale Investments. Investments designated as available-for-sale include marketable debt and equity securities. Available-for-sale investments are classified as short-term, as these investments generally consist of highly marketable securities that are intended to be available to meet near-term cash requirements. Marketable securities classified as available-for-sale are reported at market value, with net unrealized gains or losses recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income, a separate component of stockholders' equity, until realized. Realized gains and losses on investments are computed based upon specific identification and are included in interest income and other, net.
Non-Marketable Equity Securities. Non-marketable equity securities are accounted for at historical cost or, if the Company has significant influence over the investee, using the equity method of accounting.
Other-Than-Temporary Impairment. All of the Company’s available-for-sale investments and non-marketable equity securities are subject to a periodic impairment review. Investments are considered to be impaired when a decline in fair value is judged to be other-than-temporary. This determination requires significant judgment. For publicly traded investments, impairment is determined based upon the specific facts and circumstances present at the time, including a review of the closing price over the previous six months, general market conditions and the Company’s intent and ability to hold the investment for a period of time sufficient to allow for recovery. For non-marketable equity securities, the impairment analysis requires the identification of events or circumstances that would likely have a significant adverse effect on the fair value of the investment, including revenue and earnings trends, overall business prospects and general market conditions in the investees’ industry or geographic area. Investments identified as having an indicator of impairment are subject to further analysis to determine if the investment is other-than-temporarily impaired, in which case the investment is written down to its impaired value.
Concentrations of credit Risk. Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a significant concentration of credit risk consist of cash, cash equivalents, short term investments, and trade accounts receivable. The Company invests its excess funds primarily in money market funds, United States government treasuries and agency securities, corporate bonds and corporate commercial paper with reputable major financial institutions.
The Company sells integrated circuits primarily in the U.S., Europe and Asia. The Company monitors the financial condition of its major customers, including performing credit evaluations of those accounts which management considers high risk, and generally does not require collateral from its customers. When deemed necessary, the Company may limit the credit extended to certain customers. The Company’s relationship with the customer, and the customer’s past and current payment experience, are also factored into the evaluation in instances where limited financial information is available. The Company maintains and reviews its allowance for doubtful accounts by considering factors such as historical bad debts, age of the account receivable balances, customer credit-worthiness and current economic conditions that may affect customer’s ability to pay.
The Company utilizes global and regional distributors around the world, who buy product directly from the Company on behalf of their customers. One family of distributors, Maxtek and its affiliates represented approximately 15% and 18% of the Company’s revenues for the three and nine months ended January 2, 2011 and 20% and 21% of the Company’s revenues for the three and nine months ended December 27, 2009, respectively. At January 2, 2011 and March 28, 2010, Maxtek and its affiliates, represented approximately 20% and 23% of the Company’s gross accounts receivable, respectively.
Inventories. Inventories are recorded at the lower of standard cost (which approximates actual cost on a first-in, first-out basis) or market value. Inventory held at consignment locations is included in finished goods inventory as the Company retains full title and rights to the product. Inventory valuation includes provisions for obsolete and excess inventory based on management’s forecasts of demand over specific future time horizons and reserves to value the Company’s inventory at the lower of cost or market which rely on forecasts of average selling prices (ASPs) in future periods.
Revenue Recognition. The Company’s revenue results from semiconductors sold through three channels: direct sales to original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) and electronic manufacturing service providers (“EMSs”), consignment sales to OEMs and EMSs, and sales through distributors. The Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, the price is fixed or determinable, and its ability to collect is reasonably assured.
For distributors in North America and Europe regions, who have stock rotation, price protection and ship from stock pricing adjustment rights, the Company defers revenue and related cost of revenues on sales to these distributors until the product is sold through by the distributor to an end-customer. Subsequent to shipment to the distributor, the Company may reduce product pricing through price protection based on market conditions, competitive considerations and other factors. Price protection is granted to distributors on the inventory that they have on hand at the date the price protection is offered. The Company also grants certain credits to its distributors on specifically identified portions of the distributors’ business to allow them to earn a competitive gross margin on the sale of the Company’s products to their end customers. As a result of its inability to estimate these credits, the Company has determined that the sales price to these distributors is not fixed or determinable until the final sale to the end-customer.
In the Asia Pacific (“APAC”) and Japan regions, the Company has distributors for which revenue is recognized upon shipment, with reserves recorded for the estimated return and pricing adjustment exposures. The determination of the amount of reserves to be recorded for stock rotation rights requires the Company to make estimates as to the amount of product which will be returned by customers within their limited contractual rights. The Company utilizes historical return rates to estimate the future returns. In addition, from time-to-time, the Company can offer pricing adjustments to distributors for product purchased in a given quarter that remains in their inventory. These amounts are estimated by management based on discussions with customers, assessment of market trends, as well as historical practice.
Based on the terms in the agreements with its distributors and the application of this policy, the Company recognizes revenue once the distributor sells our products to an end-customer for North American and European distributors and recognizes revenue upon shipment to Japanese and other Asian Pacific distributors.
Stock-based Compensation. The fair value of employee restricted stock units is equal to the market value of the Company’s common stock on the date the award is granted. The Company estimates the fair value of employee stock options and the right to purchase shares under the employee stock purchase plan using the Black-Scholes valuation model, consistent with FASB’s authoritative guidance for share-based payments. Option-pricing models require the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the expected term of options and the expected price volatility of the stock underlying such options. In addition, the Company is required to estimate the number of stock-based awards that will be forfeited due to employee turnover. The Company attributes the value of stock-based compensation to expense on an accelerated method. Finally, the Company capitalizes into inventory a portion of the periodic stock-based compensation expense that relates to employees working in manufacturing activities.
The Company updates the expected term of stock option grants annually based on its analysis of the stock option exercise behavior over a period of time. The interest rate is based on the average U.S. Treasury interest rate over the expected term during the applicable quarter. The Company believes that the implied volatility of its common stock is an important consideration of overall market conditions and a good indicator of the expected volatility of its common stock. However, due to the limited volume of options freely traded over the counter, the Company believes that implied volatility, by itself, is not representative of the expected volatility of its common stock. Therefore, the Company uses a volatility factor that reflects a blend of historical volatility of its common stock and implied volatility of call options and dealer quotes on call options, generally having a term of less than twelve months. The Company has not paid, nor does it have current plans to pay dividends on its common stock in the foreseeable future.
Income Taxes. The Company accounts for income taxes under an asset and liability approach that requires the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between book and tax bases of assets and liabilities be recognized as deferred tax assets and liabilities. Generally accepted accounting principles require the Company to evaluate the ability to realize the value of its net deferred tax assets on an ongoing basis. A valuation allowance is recorded to reduce the net deferred tax assets to an amount that will more likely than not be realized. Accordingly, the Company considers various tax planning strategies, forecasts of future taxable income and its most recent operating results in assessing the need for a valuation allowance. In consideration of the ability to realize the value of net deferred tax assets, recent results must be given substantially more weight than any projections of future profitability. Since the fourth quarter of fiscal 2003, the Company has determined that, under applicable accounting principles, it could not conclude that it was more likely than not that the Company would realize the value of its net deferred tax assets. The Company’s assumptions regarding the ultimate realization of these assets remained unchanged in the third quarter of fiscal 2011 and accordingly, the Company continues to record a valuation allowance to reduce its deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized.
The Company recognizes the tax liability for uncertain income tax positions on the income tax return based on the two-step process. The first step is to determine whether it is more likely than not that each income tax position would be sustained upon audit. The second step is to estimate and measure the tax benefit as the amount that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the tax authority. Estimating these amounts requires the Company to determine the probability of various possible outcomes. The Company evaluates these uncertain tax positions on a quarterly basis. This evaluation is based on the consideration of several factors including changes in facts or circumstances, changes in applicable tax law, settlement of issues under audit, and new exposures. If the Company later determines that the exposure is lower or that the liability is not sufficient to cover its revised expectations, the Company adjusts the liability and effects a related change in its tax provision during the period in which the Company makes such determination.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued updated guidance related to fair value measurements and disclosures, which requires a reporting entity to disclose separately the amounts of significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements and to describe the reasons for the transfers. In addition, in the reconciliation for fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs, or Level 3, a reporting entity should disclose separately information about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements. The updated guidance also requires that an entity should provide fair value measurement disclosures for each class of assets and liabilities and disclosures about the valuation techniques and inputs used to measure fair value for both recurring and non-recurring fair value measurements for Level 2 and Level 3 fair value measurements. The updated guidance is effective for interim or annual financial reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements in the roll forward activity in Level 3 fair value measurements, which are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010 and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this guidance did not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or related footnotes.
In September 2009, the FASB issued new accounting guidance related to the revenue recognition of multiple element arrangements. The new guidance states that if vendor specific objective evidence or third party evidence for deliverables in an arrangement cannot be determined, companies will be required to develop an estimate of the selling price to separate deliverables and allocate arrangement consideration using the relative selling price method. The accounting guidance was adopted by the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2011. However, as the Company does not generally enter into multiple element arrangements, the adoption of this guidance did not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or related footnotes.
Note 4
Net Income (Loss) Per Share
Basic net income (loss) per share is computed using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed using the weighted-average number of common and dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. Potential common shares include employee stock options and restricted stock units.
Stock options to purchase 12.9 million shares and 16.9 million shares for the three and nine months ended January 2, 2011, respectively, and 24.9 million shares and 28.3 million shares for the three and nine months ended December 27, 2009, respectively, were outstanding, but were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because the exercise price of the stock options was greater than the average share
price of the common shares and therefore, the effect would have been anti-dilutive. In addition, unvested restricted stock units of less than 0.1 million for the three and nine months ended January 2, 2011, respectively, and less than 0.1 million for the three and nine months ended December 27, 2009, respectively, were excluded from the calculation because they were anti-dilutive after considering unrecognized stock-based compensation expense.

Business Combinations
Acquisition of certain assets of IKOR Acquisition Corporation (“IKOR”)
On April 16, 2010, the Company completed its acquisition of certain assets of IKOR, a former subsidiary of iWatt Corporation. IKOR designed and manufactured power voltage regulator module (VRM) solutions for high-performance computing. The total purchase price was $7.7 million, including a fair value of contingent consideration of $1.5 million payable upon the achievement of certain business performance metrics during the twelve months after the closing date. The fair value of the contingent consideration was estimated using probability-based forecasted revenue for the business as of the acquisition date. The maximum payment for this contingent considersation is $2.8 million. Pursuant to the agreement, $1.8 million in cash was held in escrow and will be utilized to fund the contingent consideration payment. During the third quarter of fiscal 2011, the fair value of the contingent consideration was remeasured based on the revised revenue forecast for the business. As a result, the fair value of the contingent consideration increased $0.3 million to $1.8 million. The change in the fair value of the contingent consideration was recorded in selling and administrative expenses in the third quarter of fiscal 2011.
Pursuant to the agreement, the Company acquired IKOR- patented coupled inductor (“CL”) technology and related assets and hired members of IKOR’ engineering team.
The Company allocated the purchase price to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values. The excess purchase price over those fair values was recorded as goodwill. The acquired CL technology complements the Company’s growing power management initiative, allowing it to achieve higher levels of performance and integration. The fair values assigned to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based on management estimates and assumptions. The amount of goodwill expected to be deductible for tax purposes is $0.9 million.
The Company incurred approximately $0.3 million of acquisition-related costs, which were included in selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the first nine months of fiscal 2011.
The aggregate purchase price has been allocated as follows:
A summary of the allocation of amortizable intangible assets is as follows:
Identifiable Tangible Assets
IKOR’s assets and liabilities were reviewed and adjusted, if required, to their estimated fair value.
Inventories – The value allocated to inventories reflects the estimated fair value of the acquired inventory based on the expected sales price of the inventory, less reasonable selling margin.
Amortizable Intangible Assets
Developed technologies consist of products that have reached technological feasibility. The Company valued the existing technologies utilizing a discounted cash flow (“DCF”) model, which uses forecasts of future revenues and expenses related to the intangible assets. The Company utilized discount factors of 35% - 36% for the existing technologies and is amortizing the intangible assets over 7 years on a straight-line basis.
Customer relationship values have been estimated utilizing a DCF model, which uses forecasts of future revenues and expenses related to the intangible asset. The Company utilized discount factor of 35% for this intangible asset and is amortizing this intangible asset over 5 years on a straight-line basis.
Backlog represents the value of the standing orders for IKOR products as of the closing date of the acquisition. Backlog was valued utilizing a DCF model and a discount factor of 15%. The value was amortized over five month period.
IKOR acquisition related financial results have been included in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations from the closing date of the acquisition on April 16, 2010. Pro forma earnings information has not been presented because the effect of the acquisition is not material to the Company’s historical financial statements.
Acquisition of Mobius Microsystems, Inc. (“Mobius”)
On January 14, 2010, the Company completed its acquisition of Mobius, a privately-held, fabless semiconductor company based in Sunnyvale, California, acquiring all of Mobius’ outstanding shares of common stock for approximately $21 million in cash. Pursuant to the agreement and upon closing the transaction, the Company acquired Mobius’ patented all-silicon oscillator technology and related assets along with members of Mobius’ engineering team.
A summary of the total purchase price was as follows:
The Company allocated the purchase price to the tangible and intangible assets acquired, including in-process research and development (“IPR&D”), based on their estimated fair values. The excess purchase
price over those fair values was recorded as goodwill. The acquisition has extended the Company’s leadership into high accuracy, crystal oscillator replacements. The all-silicon timing technology has provided the Company with power, size and time-to-market advantages. The fair values assigned to tangible and intangible assets acquired are based on management estimates and assumptions. The goodwill as a result of this acquisition is not expected to be deductible for tax purpose.
The Company incurred approximately $0.3 million of acquisition-related costs, which were included in selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Operations for fiscal 2010.
The purchase price has been allocated as follows:
Net tangible assets were reviewed and adjusted, if necessary, to their estimated fair value.
Developed technology consists of products that have reached technological feasibility. The Company used a DCF model with a discount rate of 30% to determine the fair value of the developed technology and is amortizing it on a straight-line basis over 7 years.
Projects that qualify as IPR&D represent those at the development stage and require further research and development to determine technical feasibility and commercial viability. Technological feasibility is established when an enterprise has completed all planning, designing, coding, and testing activities that are necessary to establish that a product can be produced to meet its design specifications, including functions, features, and technical performance requirements. The value of IPR&D was determined by considering the importance of each project to the Company’s overall development plan, estimating costs to develop the purchased IPR&D into commercially viable products, estimating the resulting net cash flows from the projects when completed and discounting the net cash flows to their present value based on the percentage of completion of the IPR&D projects. The Company utilized the DCF method to value the IPR&D, using a discount factor of 33% and will amortize this intangible asset once the projects are complete. There were two IPR&D projects underway at Mobius at the acquisition date and the fair value assigned to each project was $2.4 million and $1.1 million, respectively. As of January 2, 2011, one project was 100% complete in the third quarter of fiscal 2011and approximately $5.2 million costs were incurred. The Company is amortizing this intangible asset over 7 years on a straight-line basis. Another project was 70% complete and approximately $2.3 million costs have been incurred. The Company estimates that an additional investment of $1.9 million will be required to complete the project with an estimated completion date during the first quarter of fiscal 2012. Pro forma earnings information has not been presented because the effect of the acquisition is not material to the Company’s historical financial statements.
Acquisition of Tundra Semiconductor Corporation (“Tundra”)
On June 29, 2009, the Company completed its acquisition of Tundra, a Canadian corporation, pursuant to which the Company acquired 100% of the voting common stock of Tundra at a price of CAD$6.25 per share, or an aggregate purchase price of approximately CAD$120.8 million. The Company paid approximately $104.3 million in cash. In addition, as part of the consideration in the acquisition, the Company assumed options to purchase up to 0.8 million shares of its common stock. As a result, the acquisition resulted in the issuance of approximately 0.8 million stock options with a fair value of $0.7 million. The total consideration was approximately $105.0 million. The options were valued using the
Black-Scholes option pricing model. Approximately $3.4 million of acquisition-related costs were included SG&A expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Operations for fiscal 2010. A summary of the total purchase price is as follows:
The Company allocated the purchase price to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values. The excess purchase price over those fair values was recorded as goodwill. Tundra’s technology and development capabilities are complementary to the Company’s existing product portfolios for RapidI/O and PCI Express. This strategic combination has provided customers with a broader product offering, as well as improved service, support and a future roadmap for serial connectivity. These are the significant contributing factors to the establishment of the purchase price, resulting in the recognition of goodwill. The fair values assigned to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based on management’s estimates and assumptions. The amount of goodwill expected to be deductible for tax purposes is $12.8 million.
The aggregate purchase price has been allocated as follows:
A summary of the allocation of amortizable intangible assets is as follows:
Identifiable Tangible Assets
Tundra’s assets and liabilities were reviewed and adjusted, if required, to their estimated fair value.
Inventories – The value allocated to inventories reflects the estimated fair value of the acquired inventory based on the expected sales price of the inventory, less a reasonable selling margin.
Property, plant and equipment – The fair value was determined under the continued use premise as the assets were valued as part of a going concern. This premise assumes that the assets will remain “as-is, where is” and continue to be used at their present location for the continuation of business operations. Value in use includes all direct and indirect costs necessary to acquire, install, fabricated and make the assets operational. The fair value was estimated using a cost approach methodology.
Amortizable Intangible Assets
Developed technology consists of products that have reached technological feasibility. The Company valued the developed technology utilizing a DCF model, which uses forecasts of future revenues and expenses related to the intangible asset. The Company utilized discount factors of 20% - 22% for the developed technology and is amortizing the intangible assets over 5 years on a straight-line basis.
Customer relationship values were estimated utilizing a DCF model, which uses forecasts of future revenues and expenses related to the intangible asset. The Company utilized discount factors of 20%-22% for each of these intangible assets and is amortizing the intangible assets over 5 years on a straight-line basis.
The Tundra trade name was determined using the relief from royalty method, which represents the benefit of owning this intangible asset rather than paying royalties for its use. The Company utilized a discount rate of 20% for the trade name and is amortizing this intangible asset over 7 years on a straight-line basis.
The Company utilized the DCF method to value the IPR&D, using a discount factor of 22%-24%. There were two IPR&D projects underway at Tundra at the acquisition date. Both projects were completed in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010. The Company is amortizing these intangible assets over 5 years on a straight-line basis.
Note 6
Fair Value Measurement
Fair value measurement is the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing assets or liabilities. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required or permitted to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact.
Fair Value Hierarchy
The three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value are as follows:
Level 1: Quoted market prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets at the measure date.
Level 2: Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
Level 3: Inputs reflect management’s best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. The inputs are unobservable in the market and significant to the instrument’s valuation.
The following table summarizes the Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of January 2, 2011:
The following table summarizes the Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 28, 2010:
U.S. treasuries and U.S. government agency securities as of January 2, 2011 and March 28, 2010 do not include any U.S. government guaranteed bank issued paper. Corporate bonds include bank-issued securities that are guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC).
The securities in Level 1 are highly liquid and actively traded in exchange markets or over-the-counter markets. Level 2 fixed income securities are priced using quoted market prices for similar instruments or nonbinding market prices that are corroborated by observable market data.
In connection with the acquisition of IKOR (see Note 5), a liability was recognized for the Company’s estimate of the fair value of contingent consideration on the acquisition date based on probability-based forecasted revenue. This fair value measurement is based on significant inputs not observed in the market and thus represents a Level 3 measurement. This fair value measurement is valued based on unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and reflect the Company’s own assumptions concerning future revenue of the acquired business in measuring fair value.
The following table summarizes the change in the fair value of the contingent consideration measured using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) for the nine months ended January 2, 2011:
Cash equivalents are highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase. The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents with reputable major financial institutions. Deposits with these banks may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance limits or similar limits in foreign jurisdictions. These deposits typically may be redeemed upon demand and, therefore, bear minimal risk. While the Company monitors daily the cash balances in its operating accounts and adjusts the balances as appropriate, these balances could be impacted if one or more of the financial institutions with which the Company deposits fails or is subject to other adverse conditions in the financial markets. As of January 2, 2011, the Company has not experienced any losses in its operating accounts.
All of the Company’s available-for-sale investments are subject to a periodic impairment review. Investments are considered to be impaired when a decline in fair value is judged to be other-than-temporary. This determination requires significant judgment. For publicly traded investments, impairment is determined based upon the specific facts and circumstances present at the time, including a review of the closing price over the length of time, general market conditions and the Company’s intent and ability to hold the investment for a period of time sufficient to allow for recovery. Although the Company believes its portfolio continues to be comprised of sound investments due to high credit ratings and government guarantees of the underlying investments, a further decline in the capital and financial markets would adversely impact the market values of its investments and their liquidity. The Company continually monitors the credit risk in its portfolio and future developments in the credit markets and makes appropriate changes to its investment policy as deemed necessary. The Company did not record any impairment loss related to its short-term investments in the three and nine months ended January 2, 2011 and December 27, 2009.

Investments
Available-for-Sale Securities
Available-for-sale investments at January 2, 2011 were as follows:
Available-for-sale investments at March 28, 2010 were as follows:
The amortized cost and estimated fair value of available-for-sale debt securities at January 2, 2011, by contractual maturity, were as follows:
The following table shows the gross unrealized losses and fair value of the Company’s investments with unrealized losses as of January 2, 2011, aggregated by length of time that individual securities have been in a continuous loss position.
The following table shows the gross unrealized losses and fair value of the Company’s investments with unrealized losses as of March 28, 2010, aggregated by length of time that individual securities have been in a continuous loss position.
Currently, a significant portion of its available-for-sale investments that the Company holds are all high grade instruments. As of January 2, 2011, the unrealized losses on the Company’s available-for-sale investments represented an insignificant amount in relation to its total available-for-sale portfolio. Because the Company has the ability to hold these investments until a recovery of fair value, which may be maturity, the Company did not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at January 2, 2011 and March 28, 2010.
Non-Marketable Equity Securities
The Company accounts for its equity investments in privately held companies under the cost method. These investments are subject to periodic impairment review and measured and recorded at fair value when they are deemed to be other-than-temporarily impaired. In determining whether a decline in value of its investment has occurred and is other than temporary, an assessment was made by considering available evidence, including the general market conditions, the investee’s financial condition, near-term prospects, market comparables and subsequent rounds of financing. The valuation also takes into account the investee’s capital structure, liquidation preferences for its capital and other economic variables. The valuation methodology for determining the decline in value of non-marketable equity securities is based on inputs that require management judgment. The aggregate carrying value of the Company’s non-marketable equity securities was approximately $5.5 million and $3.0 million, and was classified within other assets on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of January 2, 2011 and March 28, 2010. The Company did not recognize any impairment loss during the three and nine months ended January 2, 2011 and December 27, 2009.

Derivative Financial Instruments
As a result of its international operations, sales and purchase transactions, the Company is subject to risks associated with fluctuating currency exchange rates. The Company may use derivative financial instruments to hedge these risks when instruments are available and cost effective in an attempt to minimize the impact of currency exchange rate movements on its operating results and on the cost of capital equipment purchases. The Company may enter into hedges of forecasted transactions when the
underlying transaction is highly probable and reasonably certain to occur within the subsequent twelve months. Examples of these exposures would include forecasted expenses of a foreign manufacturing plant, design center or sales office. The Company may additionally enter into a derivative to hedge the foreign currency risk of a capital equipment purchase if the capital equipment purchase order is executed and designated as a firm commitment.
The Company may also utilize currency forward contracts to hedge currency exchange rate fluctuations related to certain short term foreign currency assets and liabilities. As of January 2, 2011 and March 28, 2010, the Company did not have any outstanding foreign currency contracts that were designated as hedges of forecasted cash flows or capital equipment purchases. The Company does not enter into derivative financial instruments for speculative or trading purposes.
Gains and losses on these undesignated derivatives substantially offset gains and losses on the assets and liabilities being hedged and the net amount is included in interest income and other (expense), net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company did not have any outstanding foreign currency contracts that were designated as hedges of certain short term foreign currency assets and liabilities at the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2011. An immaterial amount of net gains and losses were included in interest income and other, net during the first nine months of fiscal 2011 and 2010.
Besides foreign exchange rate exposure, the Company’s cash and investment portfolios are subject to risks associated with fluctuations in interest rates. While the Company’s policies allow for the use of derivative financial instruments to hedge the fair values of such investments, the Company has yet to enter into this type of hedging arrangement.

Stock-Based Compensation
Compensation Expense
The following table summarizes stock-based compensation expense by line items appearing in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations:
Stock-based compensation expense recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations is based on awards ultimately expected to vest. The authoritative guidance for stock-based compensation requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. The Company attributes the value of stock-based compensation to expense on an accelerated method.
Valuation Assumptions
Assumptions used in the Black-Scholes valuation model and resulting weighted average grant-date fair values were as follows:
Equity Incentive Programs
The Company currently issues awards under two equity-based plans in order to provide additional incentive and retention to directors and employees who are considered to be essential to the long-range success of the Company. These plans are further described below.
2004 Equity Plan (2004 Plan)
In September 2004, the Company’s stockholders approved the 2004 Plan. On July 21, 2010, the Board of Directors of the Company approved an amendment to the Company’s 2004 Plan to increase the number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance thereunder from 28,500,000 shares to 36,800,000 shares (an increase of 8,300,000 shares), provided, however, that the aggregate number of common shares available for issuance under the 2004 Plan is reduced by 1.74 shares for each common share delivered in settlement of any full value award, which are awards other than stock options and stock appreciation rights, that are granted under the 2004 Plan on or after September 23, 2010. On September 23, 2010, the stockholders of the Company approved the proposed amendment described above, which also includes certain other changes to the 2004 Plan, including an extension of the term of the 2004 Plan. Options granted by the Company under the 2004 Plan generally expire seven years from the date of grant and generally vest over a four-year period from the date of grant, with one-quarter of the shares of common stock vesting on the one-year anniversary of the grant date and the remaining shares vesting monthly for the 36 months thereafter. The exercise price of the options granted by the Company under the 2004 Plan shall not be less than 100% of the fair market value for a common share subject to such option on the date the option is granted. Full value awards made under the 2004 Plan shall become vested over a period of not less than three years (or, if vesting is performance-based, over a period of not less than one year) following the date such award is made; provided, however, that full value awards that result in the issuance of an aggregate of up to 5% of common stock available under the 2004 Plan may be granted to any one or more participants without respect to such minimum vesting provisions. Restricted stock units available for grant by the Company under the 2004 Plan generally vest over a 48-month period from the grant date. Prior to vesting,
participants holding restricted stock units do not have shareholder rights. Shares are issued on or as soon as administratively practicable following the vesting date of the restricted stock units and upon issuance, recordation and delivery, the participant will have all the rights of a shareholder of the Company with respect to voting such stock and receipt of dividends and distributions on such stock. As of January 2, 2011, there were 15.8 million shares available for future grant under the 2004 Plan.
The following table summarizes the Company’s stock option activities for the nine months ended January 2, 2011:
The following table summarizes the Company’s restricted stock unit activities for the nine months ended January 2, 2011:
2009 ESPP
On June 18, 2009, the Board approved implementation of the 2009 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“2009 ESPP”) and authorized the reservation and issuance of up to 9,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, subject to stockholder approval. On September 17, 2009, the Company’s stockholders approved the plan at the 2009 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. The 2009 ESPP is intended to be implemented in successive quarterly purchase periods commencing on the first day of each fiscal quarter of the Company. In order to maintain its qualified status under Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code, the 2009 ESPP imposes certain restrictions, including the limitation that no employee is permitted to participate in the 2009 ESPP if the rights of such employee to purchase common stock of the Company under the 2009 ESPP and all similar purchase plans of the Company or its subsidiaries would accrue at a rate which exceeds $25,000 of the fair market value of such stock (determined at the time the right is granted) for each calendar year. During the nine months ended January 2, 2011, the Company issued 1.8 million shares of common stock with a weighted-average purchase price of $4.65 per share.

Balance Sheet Detail
Note 11
Deferred Income on Shipments to Distributors
Included in the caption “Deferred income on shipments to distributors” on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets are amounts related to shipments to certain distributors for which revenue is not recognized until the Company’s product has been sold by the distributor to an end customer. The components at January 2, 2011 and March 28, 2010 were as follows:
The gross deferred revenue represents the gross value of shipments to distributors at the list price billed to the distributor less any price protection credits provided to them in connection with reductions in list price while the products remain in their inventory. The amount ultimately recognized as revenue will be lower than this amount as a result of future price protection and ship from stock pricing credits which are issued in connection with the sell through of the Company’s products to end customers. Historically this amount has represented an average of approximately 25% of the list price billed to the customer. The gross deferred costs represent the standard costs, which approximate actual costs of products, the Company sells to the distributors. Although the Company monitors the levels and quality of inventory in the distribution channel, the experience is that products returned from these distributors are able to be sold to a different distributor or in a different region of the world. As such, inventory write-downs for product in the distribution channel have not been significant.
Note 12
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
The changes in the carrying amounts of goodwill by segment for the three and nine months ended January 2, 2011 were as follows:
Intangible asset balances are summarized as follows:
* IPR&D is initially capitalized at fair value as an intangible asset with an indefinite life and assessed for impairment thereafter. When the IPR&D project is complete, it is reclassified as an amortizable purchased intangible asset and is amortized over its estimated useful life. If an IPR&D project is abandoned, the Company will record a charge for the value of the related intangible asset to its Consolidated Statements of Operations in the period it is abandoned.
Amortization expense for purchased intangible assets is summarized below:
Based on the purchased intangible assets recorded at January 2, 2011, and assuming no subsequent additions to or impairment of the underlying assets, the remaining estimated amortization expense is expected to be as follows: (in thousands):
Note 13
Comprehensive Income (Loss)
The components of comprehensive income were as follows:
The components of accumulated other comprehensive income, net of tax, were as follows:

Industry Segments
The Company’s reportable segments include the following:
The tables below provide information about these segments:
Revenues by segment
Income (loss) by segment
The Company does not allocate amortization of intangible assets, severance and retention costs, acquisition-related costs, stock-based compensation, interest income and other (expense), net, and interest expense to its segments. In addition, the Company does not allocate assets to its segments. The Company excludes these items consistent with the manner in which it internally evaluates its results of operations.
The Company’s significant operations outside of the United States include manufacturing facility in Malaysia, design centers in Canada and China, and sales subsidiaries in Japan, Asia Pacific and Europe. Revenues from unaffiliated customers by geographic area, based on the customers' shipment locations, were as follows:
