Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial data at December 31, 2015 is derived from audited financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 11, 2016 (“Form 10-K”). The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“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, operating results and cash flows in conformity with GAAP for complete financial statements. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes contained in our Form 10-K.  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 operating results for the period presented have been included in the interim period. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for other interim periods or the year ending December 31, 2016.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with 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 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. Dollar amounts and share amounts are presented in thousands, except per share amounts, unless otherwise noted. Certain prior year’s balances have been reclassified to conform to the current financial statement presentation.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued the following Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) which could have potential impact to the Company’s financial statements:

ASU No. 2015-03, Interest – Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Cost (“ASU 2015-03”). This standard requires that costs associated with the issuance of debt previously recorded as deferred assets on the balance sheet now are reported as a direct reduction of the related debt balance. This standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning January 1, 2016, but early adoption is permitted. We adopted this standard in the first quarter of 2016 and applied the standard retrospectively to all prior periods presented. The adoption of ASU 2015-03 resulted in a $2.2 million retrospective reduction of both our other assets and long-term notes payable, net of current portion, as of December 31, 2015.  Adoption of this standard had no impact on the consolidated statements of operations.  

ASU No. 2015-16, Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments (“ASU 2015-16"). This standard eliminates the requirement for an acquirer to retrospectively adjust the financial statements for measurement-period adjustments that occur in periods after a business combination is consummated. These changes became effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2015. We adopted this standard in the first quarter of 2016 and had adjustments to the previously reported fair values

recorded related to the Pericom transaction.  See Note 11 for additional information related to these adjustments. Adoption of this standard had no impact on the consolidated statements of operations.  

 

NOTE 2 – Earnings per Share

Earnings per share (“EPS”) are calculated by dividing net income attributable to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS are calculated similarly but includes potential dilution from the exercise of stock options and stock awards, except when the effect would be anti-dilutive. A total of 1.9 million and 1.0 million options and stock awards outstanding during the three month ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, and 1.9 million and 1.0 million options and stock awards during six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, were excluded from the calculation because the effect was anti-dilutive.  

The table below sets forth the reconciliation between net income and the weighted average shares outstanding used for calculating basic and diluted EPS for the three months and six ended June 30, 2016 and 2015:

NOTE 4 – Goodwill and Intangible Assets

The table below sets forth the changes in goodwill:

 

The table below sets forth the value of intangible assets, other than goodwill:

 

Amortization expense related to intangible assets subject to amortization was approximately $5.2 million and $10.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively. Amortization expense related to intangible assets subject to amortization was approximately $1.9 million and $3.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively.

 

NOTE 5 – Income Tax Provision

 

              Income tax expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 was $2.4 million and $1.8 million, respectively.  Income tax expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 was $5.4 million and $9.6 million, respectively, resulting in an effective income tax rate of 27.3% for the six months ended June 30, 2016, compared to 25.8% for the same period last year. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2016 includes an immaterial benefit for various discrete items.  The Company’s effective tax rates for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 were lower than the U.S. statutory rate of 35%, principally from the impact of income from lower-taxed jurisdictions.

For the six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company reported domestic and foreign pre-tax (loss)/income of approximately $(4.6) million and $11.4 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 our tax expense by approximately $2.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and $2.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015. The benefit of the tax holidays on both basic and diluted earnings per share for both the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 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.  The Company is no longer subject to China income tax examinations by tax authorities for tax years before 2005. With respect to state and local jurisdictions and countries outside of the U.S. (other than China), 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, 2016, the gross amount of unrecognized tax benefits was approximately $27.8 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 6 – Share-Based Compensation

The table below sets forth the line items where share-based compensation expense was recorded for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015:

 

The table below sets forth share-based compensation expense by type for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015:

 

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

There were no cash proceeds received from stock option exercises during the six months ended June 30, 2016. 

The table below sets forth a summary of stock option activity for the six months ended June 30, 2016:

 

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 our closing stock price.

As of June 30, 2016, total unrecognized share-based compensation expense related to unvested stock options, net of estimated forfeitures, was approximately $1.8 million, before income taxes, and is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately one year.

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

The table below sets forth a summary of restricted stock awards and restricted stock units for the six months ended June 30, 2016:

 

 

As of June 30, 2016, total unrecognized share-based compensation expense related to non-vested restricted stock awards and restricted stock units, net of estimated forfeitures, was approximately $41.0 million, before income taxes, and is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately three years.
