NOTE A – Nature of Operations, Basis of Presentation and Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Nature of Operations

Diodes Incorporated, together with its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”), is a leading global manufacturer and supplier of high-quality, application specific standard products within the broad discrete, logic and analog semiconductor markets, serving the consumer electronics, computing, communications, industrial and automotive markets throughout Asia, North America and Europe.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S.”) (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q. They do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. These consolidated condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments and accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the period presented have been included in the interim period. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for other interim periods or the year ending December 31, 2014. The consolidated condensed financial data at December 31, 2013 is derived from audited financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, filed on February 27, 2014.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates. As permitted under U.S. GAAP, interim accounting for certain expenses, including income taxes, are based on full year forecasts. For interim financial reporting purposes, income taxes are recorded based upon estimated annual effective income tax rates taking into consideration discrete items occurring in a quarter.

Certain prior year’s balances have been reclassified to conform to the current financial statement presentation.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-08, Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360): Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity. Under ASU 2014-08, only disposals that represent a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on the entity’s results and operations would qualify as discontinued operations, which could include a disposal of a major geographical area, a major line of business, a major equity method investment, or other major parts of an entity. ASU 2014-08 also expands the disclosure requirements for disposals of operations to include more information about assets, liabilities, income and expenses and requires entities to disclose information about disposals of individually significant components. ASU 2014-08 is effective in the first quarter of 2015, with early adoption permitted and could impact the Company’s consolidated financial results in the event of a transaction as described above.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606).  ASU 2014-09 is based on the principle that revenue is recognized to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract.  ASU 2014-09 is effective in the first quarter of 2017, with early adoption not permitted and requires either a retrospective or a modified retrospective approach to adoption.  The Company has not yet selected a transition method and is currently evaluating the effect that the updated standard will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

NOTE B – Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated similarly but includes potential dilution from the exercise of stock options and stock awards, except when the effect would be anti-dilutive.

The computation of basic and diluted earnings per common share is as follows (in thousands, except per share data):

 

 

 

 

NOTE C – Inventories

Inventories stated at the lower of cost or market value are as follows (in thousands):

 

 

 

 

NOTE D – Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Changes in goodwill are as follows (in thousands):

---

 

Intangible assets are as follows (in thousands):

 

 

Amortization expense related to intangible assets subject to amortization was approximately $2 million for both the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, and approximately $4 million for both the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.

 

NOTE E – Income Tax Provision

Income tax expense of approximately $6 million and $1 million was recorded for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and income tax expense of approximately $8 million was recorded for both the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013. This resulted in an effective tax rate of 22% for the six months ended June 30, 2014, as compared to 54% in the same period last year and compared to 38% for the full year of 2013.   The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2014 includes a $2 million benefit for discrete items, primarily resulting from the conclusion of a tax audit.  The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2013 includes a $6 million charge for discrete items during the period, primarily resulting from a tax audit by the China tax authorities. The estimated annual tax rate for 2014 is expected to be approximately 28%, excluding discrete items.  The Company’s effective tax rates for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, excluding discrete items, were lower than the U.S. statutory tax rate of 35%, principally from the impact of income in lower-taxed jurisdictions.

For the three months ended June 30, 2014, the Company reported domestic and foreign pre-tax income of approximately $1 million and $23 million, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company reported domestic and foreign pre-tax income of approximately $4 million and $32 million, respectively. Funds repatriated from foreign subsidiaries to the U.S. may be subject to federal and state income taxes. The Company intends to permanently reinvest overseas all of its earnings from its foreign subsidiaries, except to the extent such undistributed earnings have previously been subject to US tax; accordingly, deferred U.S. taxes are not recorded on undistributed foreign earnings.

The impact of tax holidays decreased the Company’s tax expense by approximately $1 million and $2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The benefit of the tax holidays on both basic and diluted earnings per share for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was approximately $0.03. The benefit of the tax holidays on both basic and diluted earnings per share for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was approximately $0.04.

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and in various state and foreign jurisdictions. The Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal income tax examinations by tax authorities for tax years before 2007, or for the 2010 tax year.  With respect to state and local jurisdictions and countries outside of the U.S., with limited exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to income tax audits for years before 2006. Although the outcome of tax audits is always uncertain, the Company believes that adequate amounts of tax, interest and penalties, if any, have been provided for in the Company’s reserve for any adjustments that may result from tax audits. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense. As of June 30, 2014, the gross amount of unrecognized tax benefits was approximately $21 million.

It is reasonably possible that the amount of the unrecognized benefit with respect to certain of the Company’s unrecognized tax positions will significantly increase or decrease within the next 12 months. At this time, an estimate of the range of the reasonably possible outcomes cannot be made.

NOTE F – Share-Based Compensation

The following table shows the total compensation expensed for share-based compensation plans, including stock options and share grants, recognized in the statements of operations (in thousands):

 

 

Stock Options. Stock options generally vest in equal annual installments over a four-year period and expire eight years after the grant date, and expense was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model.

The total net cash proceeds received from stock option exercises during the six months ended June 30, 2014 was approximately $3 million. Stock option expense was approximately $1 million for both the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, and $2 million for both the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.

A summary of the stock option grants is as follows:

 

 

The aggregate intrinsic value in the table above is before applicable income taxes and represents the amount option holders would have received if all options had been exercised on the last business day of the period indicated, based on the Company’s closing stock price.

As of June 30, 2014, total unrecognized share-based compensation expense related to unvested stock options, net of forfeitures, was approximately $7 million, before income taxes, and is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 3 years.

Share Grants. Restricted stock awards and restricted stock units generally vest in equal annual installments over a four-year period.

Share grant expense for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 was approximately $3 million and $2 million, respectively, and share grant expense for both the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 was approximately $5 million.
