NOTES TO UNAUDITED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Skyworks Solutions, Inc. together with its consolidated subsidiaries, (“Skyworks” or the “Company”) is an innovator of high reliability analog and mixed signal semiconductors. Leveraging core technologies, Skyworks offers diverse standard and custom linear products supporting automotive, broadband, cellular infrastructure, energy management, home networking and automation, industrial, medical, military and mobile device applications. The Company’s portfolio includes amplifiers, attenuators, detectors, diodes, directional couplers, front-end modules, hybrids, infrastructure RF subsystems, mixers/demodulators, optocouplers, phase shifters, PLLs/synthesizers/VCOs, power dividers/combiners, receivers, switches and technical ceramics.

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial reporting. Certain information and footnote disclosures, normally included in annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations. However, in the opinion of management, the financial information reflects all adjustments, consisting of adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows of the Company for the periods presented. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. This information should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 1, 2010 as filed with the SEC.

The Company evaluates its estimates on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors, including the current economic environment. Significant judgment is required in determining the reserves for and fair value of items such as reserves for inventory, income taxes bad debt, contingent consideration associated with business combinations, and fair value assessments of assets and liabilities. In addition, significant judgment is required in determining whether a potential indicator of impairment of long-lived assets exists and in estimating future cash flows for any necessary impairment tests. Management’s estimates could differ significantly from actual results.

The Company has evaluated subsequent events through the date of issuance of these unaudited consolidated financial statements.

The Company’s fiscal year ends each year on the Friday closest to September 30. Fiscal 2011 consists of 52 weeks and ends on September 30, 2011. Fiscal 2010 consisted of 52 weeks and ended on October 1, 2010. The third quarters of fiscal 2011 and fiscal 2010 each consisted of 13 weeks and ended on July 1, 2011 and July 2, 2010, respectively.

2. ACQUISITIONS

On April 27, 2011, the Company acquired 100% ownership of a private company engaged in the design and manufacturing of optical components for $28.8 million (net of cash acquired and including an estimated fair value of $2.0 million of contingent consideration which is not materially different than the maximum earn-out level). The acquisition has an immaterial impact to the Company’s results of operations (i.e., contributed less than one percent of net revenue for the three and nine-months ended July 1, 2011) and accordingly, the disclosures required under Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Codification (“ASC”) 805 – Business Combinations have been excluded from this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. Although the purchase price allocation is preliminary due to the proximity of the acquisition to the date of this filing, the Company has recognized assets primarily related to intellectual property, land, building and goodwill.

On June 10, 2011, the Company completed the acquisition of SiGe Semiconductor, Inc. (“SiGe”), a semiconductor provider. The Company acquired a 100% ownership interest in SiGe for an aggregate purchase price of $279.5 million in cash, including contingent consideration, payable in cash, approximately one year from the acquisition date, with an estimated fair value of $57.4 million. The possible outcome of the contingent consideration ranges

from zero to $65.0 million and is based on the achievement of a specified revenue target over the twelve month period following the date of the acquisition. SiGe is a leading global supplier of RF front-end solutions that facilitate wireless multimedia across a wide range of applications. The acquisition of SiGe complements the Company’s leadership in wide area front-end solutions by adding SiGe's innovative short range, silicon-based products. As a result, the Company now offers customers a more comprehensive wireless networking product portfolio, supporting all key operating frequencies with greater architectural flexibility to address a variety of high growth applications.

The allocation of purchase price consideration in the Company’s acquisition of SiGe to the assets and liabilities was not finalized at the time of filing this quarterly report on Form 10-Q due to the proximity of the acquisition date of June 10, 2011 to the end of the third fiscal quarter, July 1, 2011. The Company has, however, completed a preliminary purchase price allocation and accordingly, the Company has reflected a preliminary allocation of the purchase price in the accompanying financial statements. The preliminary allocation of the purchase price was based upon estimates and assumptions which are subject to change within the measurement period (up to one year from the acquisition date). The preliminary allocation of the purchase price is based on the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed by major class related to the SiGe acquisition and are reflected in the accompanying financial statements as follows (in thousands):


	June 10, 2011
Estimated fair value of assets acquired
Cash and cash equivalents	$	6,653
Receivables, net		14,176
Inventory		17,457
Other current assets		2,942
Property, plant and equipment		3,551
Deferred tax assets, net		11,703
Intangible assets		74,270
Goodwill		172,029

Total assets acquired		302,781

Estimated fair value of liabilities assumed
Total liabilities assumed		(23,310	)

Net assets acquired	$	279,471

The preliminary amount of purchase price allocated to goodwill of $172.0 million relates to the synergies the Company expects to capitalize on as a result of the business combination. Substantially all of the goodwill recognized as a result of the SiGe acquisition is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

The preliminary amount of the purchase price allocated to identified intangible assets recognized in the acquisition of SiGe and the respective estimated useful lives as of June 10, 2011 were as follows (in thousands):


	Fair Value		Weighted Average Amortization Period Remaining (in Years)
Intellectual property	$	36,660	7.0
Customer relationships		26,200	5.0
In-process research and development		4,510	TBD
Backlog		3,900	0.3

Total identifiable intangible assets subject to amortization		71,270
Trademark		3,000

Total identifiable intangible assets	$	74,270

Intellectual property primarily represents the fair value of the SiGe product technologies (including patents) acquired. Customer relationships represent the fair value of the underlying relationships and agreements with SiGe customers. In-process research and development represents the fair value of incomplete SiGe research and development projects that had not reached technological feasibility as of the acquisition date, June 10, 2011. Because of the uncertainty related to the completion of these projects, the Company has determined that the amortization period will be established when the projects are completed. Backlog represents the fair value of SiGe unfilled orders as of the acquisition date, June 10, 2011. The trademark is an intangible asset with an indefinite life and represents the fair value of brand and name recognition associated with the marketing of SiGe products. The Company used a combination of income approaches to assess the preliminary fair values of the intangible assets and as a result, considers the fair value of these acquired assets to be Level 3 assets due to the significant assumptions used in the valuation. See Note 4, Fair Value for the definition of Level 3 assets.

Net revenue and net income for acquisitions completed during the three and nine-months ended July 1, 2011 have been included in the consolidated condensed statements of operations from their respective acquisition dates. SiGe contributed approximately $6.5 million of net revenue to the consolidated condensed results of operations for the three and nine-months ended July 1, 2011. The impact of SiGe's ongoing operations on the Company’s net income was insignificant to the three and nine-months ended July 1, 2011. The transaction related costs associated to the SiGe acquisition were considered immaterial and included within selling, general and administrative expense for the three and nine-months ended July 1, 2011.

The unaudited pro forma financial results for the nine-months ended July 1, 2011 and July 2, 2010 combine the unaudited historical results of Skyworks along with the unaudited historical results of SiGe for the nine-months ended July 1, 2011 and July 2, 2010, respectively. The results include the effects of unaudited pro forma adjustments as if SiGe was acquired on October 3, 2009. The pro forma financial results presented below do not include any anticipated synergies or other expected benefits of the acquisition. These results are presented for informational purposes only and are not necessarily indicative of future operations.


	Nine-months ended

Revenue	$	1,088,644	$	828,542

Basic EPS	$	0.86	$	0.44
Diluted EPS	$	0.82	$	0.42

Pending acquisition

On May 26, 2011, the Company announced it had entered into an agreement and plan of merger (the “Merger Agreement”)with PowerCo Acquisition Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”) and Advanced Analogic Technologies Incorporated (“AATI”) pursuant to which the Merger Sub will, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions in the Merger Agreement, merge with and into AATI, and AATI will survive the merger and become a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Merger”). Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger, each outstanding share of AATI common stock (except for shares held directly or indirectly by the Company, Merger Sub, AATI or any wholly owned subsidiary of AATI, and except for shares of AATI common stock held by stockholders exercising dissenter’s rights) will automatically be converted into the right to receive an aggregate of $6.13 per share, payable in the form of 0.08725 of a share of the Company’s common stock (the “stock consideration”) and an adjustable cash amount in the initial calculated amount of $3.68 (the “cash consideration” and, together with the stock consideration, the “merger consideration”), without interest and less applicable withholding taxes. The amount of the stock consideration was based on the average last sale price of Skyworks common stock (at the 4 p.m. Eastern Time end of Nasdaq regular trading hours) over the 30-trading days prior to May 26, 2011. At that average price, the stock consideration had a nominal value of $2.45 and the nominal aggregate combined value of the cash consideration and the stock consideration was $6.13. The final cash consideration will depend on the closing value

of the stock consideration, calculated on the basis of Skyworks’ average reported last sale price in regular Nasdaq trading during a five-trading-day measurement period preceding the closing of the merger. If the closing value of the stock consideration is less than $2.45, the cash consideration will increase by the amount of the shortfall. If the closing value of the stock consideration is more than $2.45, the cash consideration will decrease by the amount of the excess. If the closing value of the stock consideration is exactly $2.45, the cash consideration will remain unchanged at $3.68. In each case, the merger consideration will maintain a constant nominal aggregate combined value of $6.13 per share of AATI common stock. If the Company’s average last reported sale price during the pre-closing measurement period is less than $21.00 per share, the Company has the right to pay the entire $6.13 in cash, and in that event, AATI stockholders would not receive any shares of the Company’s Common Stock in the merger for their outstanding shares of AATI common stock, and would instead receive $6.13 entirely in cash. The Company expects to pay between $100.0 million to $120.0 million in cash net of approximately $80.0 million to $90.0 million of cash expected to be acquired in the transaction.

The merger agreement and the terms of the Merger are more fully described in the Company’s registration statement on Form S-4, which was filed with the SEC on June 17, 2011 and stockholders are encouraged to read that document in its entirety.

3. MARKETABLE SECURITIES

The Company accounts for its investment in marketable securities in accordance with ASC 320 — Investments-Debt and Equity Securities (“ASC 320”) and classifies them as “available for sale”. As of July 1, 2011, these securities consisted of $3.2 million par value auction rate securities (“ARS”) with a carrying value of $2.3 million. The difference between the par value and the carrying value is categorized as a temporary loss in other comprehensive income. The Company receives the scheduled interest payments in accordance with the terms of the ARS. The Company closely monitors and evaluates the appropriate accounting treatment in each reporting period for the ARS.

4. FAIR VALUE

In accordance with ASC 820 — Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure (“ASC 820”), the Company groups its financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis in three levels, based on the markets in which the assets and liabilities are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value. These levels are:

•

Level 1 — Valuation is based upon quoted market price for identical instruments traded in active markets.

•

Level 2 — Valuation is based upon quoted market prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market.

•

Level 3 — Valuation is generated from model-based techniques that use significant assumptions not observable in the market. Valuation techniques include use of discounted cash flow models and similar techniques.

The Company has cash equivalents classified as Level 1 and has no Level 2 securities. The Company’s ARS, discussed in Note 3, Marketable Securities, are classified as Level 3 assets. There have been no transfers between Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 assets during the three and nine-months ended July 1, 2011. There have been no purchases, sales, issuances or settlements of the marketable securities classified as Level 3 assets during the three and nine-months ended July 1, 2011.

The Company has classified its contingent consideration recorded for business combinations as a Level 3 liability.

Assets and Liabilities Measured and Recorded at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

The Company measures certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis such as our financial instruments, marketable securities and contingent consideration related to business combinations. As of July 1, 2011 the financial assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis at fair value consist of the following (in thousands):

The increases in goodwill and intangible assets are primarily attributable to the acquisition of SiGe during the nine-months ended July 1, 2011 as discussed in Note 2, Acquisitions.

The Company tests its goodwill and trademarks for impairment annually as of the first day of its fourth fiscal quarter and in interim periods if certain events occur indicating that the carrying value of goodwill may be impaired. There were no indicators of impairment noted during the three and nine-months ended July 1, 2011.

Amortization expense related to intangible assets was $4.0 million and $7.2 million for the three and nine-months ended July 1, 2011, respectively. Amortization expense was $1.5 million and $4.5 million for the three and nine-months ended July 2, 2010, respectively.

Annual amortization expense related to intangible assets for the next five years is expected to be as follows (in thousands):


	Remaining FY 2011		FY 2012		FY 2013		FY 2014		FY 2015
Amortization expense	$	9,331	$	23,378	$	16,017	$	12,480	$	10,477

The increase in amortization expense relates to the identifiable intangible assets acquired from SiGe during the nine-months ended July 1, 2011.

8. BORROWING ARRANGEMENTS

Long-Term Debt

On March 2, 2007, the Company issued $200.0 million aggregate principal amount of convertible subordinated notes (“2007 Convertible Notes”). The offering contained two tranches. The first tranche consisted of $100.0 million of 1.25% convertible subordinated notes due March 2010 (the “1.25% Notes”) which have been retired. The second tranche consisted of $100.0 million aggregate principal amount of 1.50% convertible subordinated notes due March 2012 (the “1.50% Notes”). As of July 1, 2011, $26.7 million in aggregate principal amount of 1.50% Notes remained outstanding. The Company pays interest in cash semi-annually in arrears on March 1 and September 1 of each year on the 1.50% Notes. The conversion price of the 1.50% Notes is 105.0696 shares per $1,000 principal amount of notes to be redeemed, which is the equivalent of a conversion price of approximately $9.52 per share plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the conversion date. Holders of the remaining $26.7 million aggregate principal balance of the 1.50% Notes may require the Company to repurchase the 1.50% Notes upon a change in control of the Company.

Holders may convert the 1.50% Notes at any time on or prior to the close of business on the final maturity date. If a holder of a 1.50% Note elects to convert such Notes at maturity, the Company may continue to choose to deliver to the holder either cash, shares of its common stock or a combination of cash and shares of its common stock to settle the conversion. This cash settlement provision permits the application of the treasury stock method in determining potential share dilution of the conversion spread should the share price of the Company’s common stock exceed $9.52. It has been the Company’s historical practice to cash settle the principal and interest components of convertible debt instruments, and it is the Company’s intention to continue to do so in the future, including with respect to the 1.50% Notes.

As of July 1, 2011, the $25.7 million carrying value of the 1.50% Notes was deemed a current liability and accordingly was classified as short-term debt. Long-term debt consists of convertible notes with a carrying value of $24.7 million as of October 1, 2010. As of July 1, 2011, based on a stock price of $23.44, the actual “if converted” value of the remaining 1.50% Notes was $65.7 million which exceeds the related principal amount by approximately $39.0 million.

On October 3, 2009, the Company adopted ASC 470-20 — Debt, Debt with Conversions and Other Options (“ASC 470-20”). ASC 470-20 applies to the Company’s 2007 Convertible Notes. Using a non-convertible borrowing rate of 6.86%, the Company estimated the fair value of the liability component of the $100.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 1.50% Notes to be $77.3 million on October 3, 2009. As of the issuance date, the difference between the fair value of the liability component of the 1.50% Notes and the corresponding aggregate principal amount of such notes, which is equal to the fair value of the equity component of the 1.50% Notes ($22.7 million), was retrospectively recorded as a debt discount and as an increase to additional paid-in capital, net of tax. The discount of the liability component of the 1.50% Notes is being amortized over the remaining life of the instrument.

The following tables provide additional information about the Company’s 1.50% Notes (in thousands):


	As of
	July 1, 2011		October 1, 2010
Equity component of the convertible notes outstanding	$	6,061	$	6,061
Principal amount of the convertible notes		26,677		26,677
Unamortized discount of the liability component		933		1,934
Net carrying amount of the liability component		25,744		24,743


	Three-months Ended						Nine-months Ended
	July 1, 2011			July 2, 2010			July 1, 2011			July 2, 2010
Effective interest rate on the liability component		6.86	%		6.86	%		6.86	%		6.86	%

Effective interest expense recognized	$	339		$	478		$	1,000		$	2,180

The remaining unamortized discount on the 1.50% Notes will be amortized over the next eight months. As of both July 1, 2011 and October 1, 2010, the number of shares underlying the remaining 1.50% Notes was 2.8 million.

Short-Term Debt

As of July 1, 2011, the $25.7 million carrying value of the 1.50% Notes was classified as short-term debt.

The Company’s short-term debt balance as of October 1, 2010 consisted of a $50.0 million credit facility, which the Company paid off and terminated during the first quarter of fiscal 2011.

9. INCOME TAXES

The Company recorded income tax provisions of $20.2 million and $53.6 million for the three and nine-months ended July 1, 2011, respectively, and $17.9 million and $39.8 million for the three and nine-months ended July 2, 2010, respectively. The provision for income taxes for the three and nine-months ended July 1, 2011 consisted of $17.6 million and $49.2 million of United States income taxes, respectively, and $17.6 million and $39.0 million for the three and nine-months ended July 2, 2010, respectively. The provision for income taxes for the three and nine-months ended July 1, 2011 consisted of $2.6 million and $4.4 million of foreign income taxes, respectively, and $0.3 million and $0.8 million for the three and nine-months ended July 2, 2010, respectively.

For the three and nine-months ended July 1, 2011, the difference between the Company’s effective tax rate and the 35% U.S. federal statutory rate resulted primarily from foreign earnings taxed at rates lower than the federal statutory rate and the recognition of research and development tax credits earned. In December 2010, the United States Congress enacted legislation to retroactively extend the federal research and development tax credit. As a result, the Company recognized $4.8 million of federal research and development tax credits in the nine-months ended July 1, 2011, which were earned in the fiscal year ended October 1, 2010. For the three and nine-months ended July 2, 2010, the difference between the Company’s effective tax rate and the 35% federal statutory rate resulted primarily from foreign earnings taxed at rates lower than the United States federal statutory rate, and the change in assessment as to reinvestment of earnings to United States deferred taxes related to the transfer of assets to an affiliated foreign company.

On October 2, 2010, the Company expanded its presence in Asia by launching operations in Singapore. The Company operates under a tax holiday in Singapore, which is effective through September 30, 2020. The tax holiday is conditional upon the Company’s compliance with meeting certain employment and investment thresholds in Singapore.

In accordance with ASC 740 – Income Taxes (“ASC 740”), management has determined that it is more likely than not that a portion of the Company’s historic and current year income tax benefits will not be realized. Accordingly, as of July 1, 2011, the Company has maintained a valuation allowance of $24.0 million related to the Company’s United States deferred tax assets, primarily related to the Company’s state tax research and experimentation credits. Deferred tax assets have been recognized for foreign operations when management believes that it is more likely than not that they will be recovered during the carryforward period. The Company has also previously determined that it is more likely than not that a portion of the Company’s foreign income tax benefits will not be realized and maintains a valuation allowance of $1.6 million related to the Company’s foreign deferred tax assets. In addition, the Company has established a preliminary valuation allowance of $15.7 million related to the foreign deferred tax assets acquired from SiGe.

Realization of benefits from the Company’s deferred tax asset, net of valuation allowance, is dependent upon generating United States source taxable income in the future. The existing valuation allowance could be reversed in the future to the extent that the related deferred tax assets no longer require a valuation allowance under the provisions of ASC 740.

The Company will continue to evaluate its valuation allowance in future periods and depending upon the outcome of that assessment, additional amounts could be reversed or recorded and recognized as an adjustment to income tax benefit or expense. Such adjustments could cause the Company’s effective income tax rate to vary in future periods. The Company will need to generate $153.0 million of United States federal taxable income in future years to utilize all of the Company’s net operating loss carryforwards, research and experimentation tax credit carryforwards, and deferred income tax temporary differences, net of valuation allowance, as of July 1, 2011.

During the quarter ended July 1, 2011, there was an increase in the Company’s gross unrecognized tax benefits of $2.8 million. The Company’s gross unrecognized tax benefits totaled $26.6 million as of July 1, 2011. Of the total unrecognized tax benefits at July 1, 2011, $17.8 million would impact the effective tax rate, if recognized. The remaining unrecognized tax benefits would not impact the effective tax rate, if recognized, due to the Company’s valuation allowance and certain positions which were required to be deferred. There are no positions that the Company anticipates could change within the next twelve months. The Company incurred $0.2 million of interest related to unrecognized tax benefits during the quarter ended July 1, 2011. The Company’s policy is to recognize accrued interest and penalties, if incurred, on any unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense.

The Company’s major tax jurisdictions as of July 1, 2011 are the United States federal jurisdiction and the United States jurisdictions of California and Iowa. For the United States, the Company has open tax years dating back to fiscal year 1998 due to the carry forward of tax attributes. For California and Iowa, the Company has open tax years dating back to fiscal year 2002 due to the carry forward of tax attributes.

10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Legal Matters

On June 6, 2011, a putative stockholder class action lawsuit was filed in California Superior Court in Santa Clara County (Case No. 111CV202403) (the “Bushansky action”) naming AATI, the members of AATI’s board of directors, the Company and Merger Sub as defendants. The complaint alleges, among other things, (1) that the members of AATI’s board of directors breached their fiduciary duties by (a) failing to take steps to maximize the value of the merger consideration to AATI’s stockholders, (b) taking steps to avoid competitive bidding, and (c) failing to protect against conflicts of interest resulting from change-of-control and transaction-related benefits received by AATI directors in connection with the merger that are not available to all stockholders, and (2) that AATI, the members of AATI’s board of directors, the Company and Merger Sub aided and abetted these purported breaches of fiduciary duties. The complaint seeks to enjoin consummation of the merger or, if the merger is completed, to recover damages caused by the alleged breaches of fiduciary duties. The complaint also seeks recovery of attorney’s fees and costs of the lawsuit.

On June 7, 2011, a putative stockholder class action lawsuit was filed in California Superior Court in Santa Clara County (Case No. 111CV202501) (the “Venette action”) naming AATI, the members of AATI’s board of directors, the Company and Merger Sub as defendants. Plaintiffs filed an amended complaint on July 14, 2011 (the “Amended Complaint”). The Amended Complaint alleges, among other things, (1) that the members of AATI’s board of directors breached their fiduciary duties by (a) agreeing to the merger for inadequate consideration on unfair terms, (b) failing to protect against conflicts of interest resulting from change-of-control and transaction-related benefits received by AATI directors in connection with the merger that are not available to all stockholders, (c) selling the company in response to alleged pressure from Dialectic Capital Partners, LP (“Dialectic”), (d) taking steps to avoid competitive bidding (including the entry by certain AATI officers and directors into agreements with the Company relating to voting commitments and inclusion in the merger agreement of nonsolicitation provisions and a termination fee), and (e) by causing the issuance of a materially misleading Form S-4 Registration Statement which, inter alia, purportedly fails to disclose material facts surrounding (i) Dialectic’s impact on the proposed merger process, (ii) the AATI board of directors’ evaluation of the Company and its offer for AATI, and (iii) supporting figures and analysis regarding the fairness opinion that the AATI Board obtained from its financial advisor, Needham & Company, LLC, in connection with the transaction and (2) that AATI, the members of AATI’s board of directors, the Company and Merger Sub aided and abetted these purported breaches of fiduciary duties. The Amended Complaint seeks to enjoin consummation of the merger, and to have the court direct the defendants to implement procedures and processes to maximize shareholder value. The Amended Complaint also seeks recovery of attorney’s fees and costs of the lawsuit.

On July 26, 2011, the Court issued an order consolidating the Bushansky action and Venette action into a single, consolidated action captioned In re Advanced Analogic Technologies Inc. Shareholder Litigation, Lead Case No. 111CV202403, and designating the Amended Complaint as the operative complaint in the litigation.

The Company believes that the claims in the consolidated action are without merit and intends to defend against such claims vigorously.

From time to time, various lawsuits, claims and proceedings have been, and may in the future be, instituted or asserted against the Company, including those pertaining to patent infringement, intellectual property, environmental, product liability, safety and health, employment and contractual matters.

Additionally, the semiconductor industry is characterized by vigorous protection and pursuit of intellectual property rights. From time to time, third parties have asserted, and may assert in the future, patent, copyright, trademark and other intellectual property rights to technologies that are important to the Company’s business and have demanded, and may demand in the future, that the Company license their technology. The outcome of any such litigation cannot be predicted with certainty and some such lawsuits, claims or proceedings may be disposed of unfavorably to the Company. Generally speaking, intellectual property disputes often have a risk of injunctive relief, which, if imposed against the Company, could materially and adversely affect the Company’s financial condition, or results of operations. From time to time, the Company is also involved in legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business.

The Company believes there is no litigation pending that will have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on its business.

Guarantees and Indemnifications

The Company has made no contractual guarantees for the benefit of third parties. However, the Company generally indemnifies its customers from third-party intellectual property infringement litigation claims related to its products, and, on occasion, also provides other indemnities related to product sales. In connection with certain facility leases, the Company has indemnified its lessors for certain claims arising from the facility or the lease.

The Company indemnifies its directors and officers to the maximum extent permitted under the laws of the state of Delaware. The duration of the indemnities varies, and in many cases is indefinite. The indemnities to customers in connection with product sales generally are subject to limits based upon the amount of the related product sales and in many cases are subject to geographic and other restrictions. In certain instances, the Company’s indemnities do

not provide for any limitation of the maximum potential future payments the Company could be obligated to make. The Company has not recorded any liability for these indemnities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and does not expect that such obligations will have a material adverse impact on its financial condition or results of operations.

11. EMPLOYEE STOCK BENEFIT PLANS

Share-based compensation expense consists of expense related to unvested grants of employee stock options and awards in accordance with ASC 718 — Compensation-Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”).

The following table summarizes share-based compensation expense related to unvested employee stock options, restricted and performance stock grants, management incentive compensation, and the employee stock purchase plan for the three and nine-months ended July 1, 2011 and July 2, 2010:


	Three-months Ended				Nine-months Ended
(In thousands)	July 1, 2011		July 2, 2010		July 1, 2011		July 2, 2010
Stock options	$	4,282	$	3,163	$	12,233	$	9,335

Total share-based compensation expense	$	14,543	$	9,435	$	42,688	$	26,239

The Company utilized the following weighted average assumptions in calculating its share-based compensation expense from stock options using the Black-Scholes model as of the nine-months ended July 1, 2011 and July 2, 2010:


	Nine-months Ended
	July 1, 2011			July 2, 2010
Expected volatility		49.26	%		56.19	%
Risk free interest rate		1.11	%		1.62	%
Dividend yield		0.00			0.00
Expected option life (7 year contractual life options)		4.10			4.23

12. ACCUMULATED OTHER COMPREHENSIVE LOSS

The Company accounts for accumulated other comprehensive loss in accordance with the provisions of ASC 220 — Comprehensive Income (“ASC 220”). ASC 220 is a financial statement presentation standard that requires the Company to disclose non-owner changes included in equity but not included in net income or loss. Accumulated other comprehensive loss presented in the financial statements consists of adjustments to the Company’s auction rate securities and minimum pension liability. There were no changes in the value of the auction rate securities or pension liability during the three and nine-months ended July 1, 2011.

13. COMMON STOCK REPURCHASE

On August 3, 2010, the Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program, pursuant to which the Company is authorized to repurchase up to $200.0 million of the Company’s common stock from time to time on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions as permitted by securities laws and other legal requirements. During the three-months ended July 1, 2011, the Company paid approximately $18.6 million (including commissions) in connection with the repurchase of 750,000 shares of its common stock (paying an average price of $24.83 per share). During the nine-months ended July 1, 2011, the Company paid approximately $60.2 million (including

commissions) in connection with the repurchase of 2,268,045 shares of its common stock (paying an average price of $26.54 per share). As of July 1, 2011, $139.8 million remained available under the existing share repurchase authorization.

14. EARNINGS PER SHARE


	Three-months Ended				Nine-months Ended
(In thousands, except per share amounts)	July 1, 2011		July 2, 2010		July 1, 2011		July 2, 2010
Net income	$	51,548	$	34,736	$	162,376	$	90,490

Weighted average shares outstanding — basic		183,750		175,495		182,642		174,220
Effect of dilutive convertible debt		1,790		1,657		1,831		1,938
Effect of dilutive share-based awards		5,840		6,737		6,155		5,914

Weighted average shares outstanding — diluted		191,380		183,889		190,628		182,072


Net income per share — basic	$	0.28	$	0.20	$	0.89	$	0.52

Net income per share — diluted	$	0.27	$	0.19	$	0.85	$	0.50

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share includes the dilutive effect of equity based awards and the 2007 Convertible Notes using the treasury stock method.

Equity based awards exercisable for approximately 2.8 million shares and 1.5 million shares were outstanding but not included in the computation of earnings per share for the three and nine-months ended July 1, 2011, respectively, as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

Equity based awards exercisable for approximately 4.8 million shares and 5.6 million shares were outstanding but not included in the computation of earnings per share for the three and nine-months ended July 2, 2010, respectively, as their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

The remaining $26.7 million in aggregate principal balance of the 1.50% Notes contains a cash settlement provision, which permits the application of the treasury stock method in determining potential share dilution of the conversion spread should the share price of the Company’s common stock exceed $9.52. For both the three and nine-months ended July 1, 2011, 1.8 million shares, were included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share as a result of this conversion feature and 1.7 million shares and 1.9 million shares for the three and nine-months ended July 2, 2010, respectively, were included.

15. SEGMENT INFORMATION

In accordance with ASC 280-Segment Reporting (“ASC 280”), the Company has one reportable operating segment which designs, develops, manufactures and markets proprietary semiconductor products, including intellectual property. ASC 280 establishes standards for the way public business enterprises report information about operating segments in annual financial statements and in interim reports to shareholders. The method for determining what information to report is based on management’s use of financial information for the purposes of assessing performance and making operating decisions. In evaluating financial performance and making operating decisions, management primarily uses consolidated net revenue, gross profit, operating profit and earnings per share. The Company’s business units share similar economic characteristics, long term business models, research and development expenses and selling, general and administrative expenses. As of July 1, 2011, there has been no change and the Company continues to consider itself to have one reportable operating segment. The Company will re-assess its conclusions at least annually.

16. RESTRUCTURING

During the three and nine-months ended July 1, 2011, the Company implemented a restructuring plan to reduce redundancies associated with its acquisition of SiGe and recorded a restructuring charge of $1.5 million primarily related to employee severance expense.

GENERAL

During the three and nine-months ended July 1, 2011, certain key factors contributed to our overall results of operations and cash flows from operations. Specifically:

•

We generated net revenue of $356.1 million and $1,016.6 million for the three and nine-months ended July 1, 2011, respectively. This reflects an increase in net revenue of approximately 29.3% and 34.0%, respectively, as compared to the corresponding prior periods. This increase in net revenue was primarily attributable to an increase in our overall market share, an increase in overall demand for our semiconductor products supporting wireless communications and mobile internet capabilities in devices such as smart phones, tablets, gaming platforms, home automation systems and network infrastructure, product diversification into new vertical markets, and the incremental revenue of $6.5 million related to our acquisition of SiGe Semiconductor Inc. (“SiGe”).

•

Gross profit increased by $38.0 million to 43.9% of net revenue for the three-months ended July 1, 2011 and increased $125.1 million to 43.8% of net revenue for the nine-months ended July 1, 2011, as compared to the corresponding prior periods. The increase in gross profit in aggregate dollars and as a percentage of net revenue is primarily the result of the aforementioned increase in net revenue, improved product mix as we increased sales of higher margin products and continued factory process enhancements driven primarily by capital expenditures, product yield improvements, and manufacturing input cost reductions.

•

Operating income increased by $18.8 million to 20.3% of net revenue for the three-months ended July 1, 2011, and $83.3 million to 21.4% of net revenue for the nine-months ended July 1, 2011, as compared to the corresponding prior periods. The increase is primarily due to the aforementioned increases in net revenue and gross margin along with a higher degree of operating leverage as the company reduced operating expenditures as a percentage of net revenue resulting in higher operating margins.

•

We completed the acquisition of SiGe during the quarter for approximately $279.5 million in total cash consideration. The acquisition of SiGe complements the Company’s leadership in wide area front-end solutions by adding SiGe's innovative short range, silicon-based products. As a result, the Company now offers customers a more comprehensive wireless networking product portfolio, supporting all key operating frequencies with greater architectural flexibility to address a variety of high growth applications.

•

For the nine-months ended July 1, 2011, we generated $243.0 million in cash from operations. This was offset by approximately $249.8 million paid for acquisitions (net of cash acquired), $85.4 million in capital expenditures, and the retirement of our short term line of credit of $50.0 million. We exited the quarter with $309.6 million in cash and cash equivalents.

NET REVENUE


	Three-months Ended							Nine-months Ended
(dollars in thousands)	July 1, 2011		Change			July 2, 2010		July 1, 2011		Change			July 2, 2010
Net revenue	$	356,075		29.3	%	$	275,370	$	1,016,606		34.0	%	$	758,566

We market and sell our products directly to Original Equipment Manufacturers (“OEMs”) of communication electronic products, third-party Original Design Manufacturers (“ODMs”), contract manufacturers and indirectly through electronic components distributors. We periodically enter into revenue generating arrangements that leverage our broad intellectual property portfolio by licensing or selling our non-core patents or other intellectual property. We anticipate continuing this intellectual property strategy in future periods.

We generated net revenue of $356.1 million in the three-months ended July 1, 2011, which was a 29.3% increase over the $275.4 million for the corresponding period in fiscal 2010. For the nine-months ended July 1, 2011 net revenue was $1,016.6 million, an increase of 34.0% over the $758.6 million generated for the nine-months ended July 2, 2010. This increase in net revenue was primarily attributable to an increase in our overall market share, an increase in overall demand for our semiconductor products that support wireless communication and mobile internet capabilities in devices such as smart phones, tablets, gaming platforms, home automation systems and network infrastructure, product diversification into new vertical markets, and the incremental revenue of $6.5 million related to our acquisition of SiGe.

GROSS PROFIT


	Three-months Ended									Nine-months Ended
(dollars in thousands)	July 1, 2011			Change			July 2, 2010			July 1, 2011			Change			July 2, 2010
Gross profit	$	156,225			32.1	%	$	118,266		$	445,744			39.0	%	$	320,674
% of net revenue		43.9	%					42.9	%		43.8	%					42.3	%

Gross profit represents net revenue less cost of goods sold. Cost of goods sold consists primarily of purchased materials, labor and overhead (including depreciation and share-based compensation expense) associated with product manufacturing.

Gross profit increased by $38.0 million to 43.9% of net revenue for the three-months ended July 1, 2011, as compared to the corresponding prior period. During the nine-months ended July 1, 2011, gross profit increased by $125.1 million to 43.8% of net revenue as compared to the corresponding prior period. The increase in gross profit in aggregate dollars and as a percentage of net revenue is primarily the result of the aforementioned increase in net revenue, improved product mix as we increased sales of higher margin products and continued factory process enhancements driven by increased capital expenditures, product yield improvements, and manufacturing input cost reductions. During the three and nine-months ended July 1, 2011, we continued to benefit from higher contribution margins associated with the licensing and/or sale of intellectual property.

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT


	Three-months Ended									Nine-months Ended
(dollars in thousands)	July 1, 2011			Change			July 2, 2010			July 1, 2011			Change			July 2, 2010
Research and development	$	43,067			23.5	%	$	34,882		$	121,228			22.8	%	$	98,731
% of net revenue		12.1	%					12.7	%		11.9	%					13.0	%

Research and development expenses consist principally of direct personnel costs, costs for pre-production evaluation and testing of new devices, masks and engineering prototypes, share-based compensation expense and design and test tool costs.

The 23.5% and 22.8% increases in research and development expenses for the three and nine-months ended July 1, 2011, respectively, when compared to the corresponding prior periods are principally attributable to growth in the number of our employees (including those related to the SiGe acquisition) and related increases in compensation costs. In addition, we increased our design activities and associated expenses in support of increased product development for our target markets. Research and development expenses decreased as a percentage of net revenue for the three and nine-months ended July 1, 2011, as compared to the corresponding prior period, due to the aforementioned increase in net revenue and the relatively modest increase in research and development expense.

SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE


	Three-months Ended									Nine-months Ended
(dollars in thousands)	July 1, 2011			Change			July 2, 2010			July 1, 2011			Change			July 2, 2010

% of net revenue		10.0	%					10.7	%		9.7	%					11.1	%

Selling, general and administrative expenses include legal, accounting, treasury, human resources, information systems, customer service, bad-debt expense, sales commissions, share-based compensation expense, advertising, marketing and other costs.

The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses for the three and nine-months ended July 1, 2011, respectively, as compared to the corresponding prior period is principally due to growth in the number of our employees and related compensation expense, our increased stock price during the fiscal 2011 as compared to the same periods in the prior year and its impact on share-based compensation, the increase in expenses related to professional fees associated with completed and pending acquisitions, and a settlement for a contractual dispute. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net revenue decreased for the three and nine-months ended July 1, 2011, as compared to the corresponding prior period, due to the aforementioned increase in net revenue.

RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER CHARGES


	Three-months Ended									Nine-months Ended
(dollars in thousands)	July 1, 2011			Change			July 2, 2010			July 1, 2011			Change			July 2, 2010

% of net revenue		0.4	%					-0.4	%		0.1	%					-0.1	%

On June 14, 2011 we committed to a restructuring plan to eliminate redundancies related to the SiGe acquisition. We recorded a $1.5 million charge primarily related to severance costs for the three and nine-months ending July 1, 2011.

We expect to realize approximately $7.0 million per year in cost savings as a result of this restructuring plan.

During the three and nine-months ended July 2, 2010, we recorded a gain of $1.0 million upon the disposition of certain equipment which was previously impaired as a part of a restructuring plan in 2009.

AMORTIZATION OF INTANGIBLES


	Three-months Ended									Nine-months Ended
(dollars in thousands)	July 1, 2011			Change			July 2, 2010			July 1, 2011			Change			July 2, 2010

% of net revenue		1.1	%					0.5	%		0.7	%					0.6	%

The increase in amortization expense for the three and nine-months ended July 1, 2011 as compared to the corresponding prior periods primarily relates to amortization of the identified intangible assets from the SiGe acquisition. See Note 7 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Item 1 in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information.

INTEREST EXPENSE


	Three-months Ended									Nine-months Ended
(dollars in thousands)	July 1, 2011			Change			July 2, 2010			July 1, 2011			Change			July 2, 2010

% of net revenue		0.1	%					0.3	%		0.1	%					0.5	%

Interest expense is comprised principally of interest related to our 2007 Convertible Notes which has been calculated under ASC 470-20 — Debt, Debt with Conversion and Other Options. See Note 8 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Item 1 in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information.

The decrease in interest expense for the three and nine-months ended July 1, 2011, when compared to the corresponding periods in fiscal 2010, was due to a decline in interest expense resulting from, and the reduced amortization of discount associated with, the early retirement of a portion of the 2007 Convertible Notes during fiscal 2010 and our repayment of the entire $50.0 million balance of our Credit Facility during the first quarter of fiscal 2011.

PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES


	Three-months Ended									Nine-months Ended
(dollars in thousands)	July 1, 2011			Change			July 2, 2010			July 1, 2011			Change			July 2, 2010
Provision for income taxes	$	20,211			12.7	%	$	17,933		$	53,604			34.6	%	$	39,829
% of net revenue		5.7	%					6.5	%		5.3	%					5.3	%

The Company recorded a provision for income taxes of $20.2 million ($17.6 million and $2.6 million for United States and foreign income taxes, respectively) and $53.6 million ($49.2 million and $4.4 million for United States and foreign income taxes, respectively) for the three and nine-months ended July 1, 2011, respectively.

The effective tax rate for the three and nine-months ended July 1, 2011 were 28.2% and 24.8%, respectively, as compared to 34.0% and 30.6% for the corresponding periods in fiscal 2010, respectively. The difference between the Company’s year to date effective tax rate of 24.8% and the federal statutory rate of 35% is principally due to the recognition of foreign earnings in lower tax jurisdictions and the recognition of research and development tax credits earned. As a result of the enactment of the Tax Relief Act of 2010 which retroactively reinstated and extended a federal research and development tax credit that we qualified for, $4.8 million of federal research and development tax credits which were earned in fiscal year 2010 reduced our tax rate during the nine-months ended July 1, 2011. See Note 9 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Item 1 in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for more information.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash Provided and Used


	Nine-months Ended
(dollars in thousands)	July 1, 2011			July 2, 2010
Cash and cash equivalents at beginning of period (1)	$	453,257		$	364,221
Net cash provided by operating activities		243,019			149,677
Net cash used in investing activities		(335,200	)		(65,609	)
Net cash used in financing activities		(51,431	)		(64,465	)

Cash and cash equivalents at end of period (1)	$	309,645		$	383,824

(1)

Cash and cash equivalents do not include restricted cash balances.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities:

Cash provided by operating activities is net income adjusted for certain non-cash items and changes in certain assets and liabilities. For the nine-months ended July 1, 2011, net income increased by $71.9 million to $162.4 million when compared to the corresponding period in fiscal 2010. For the nine-months ended July 1, 2011 we generated $243.0 million in cash flow from operations, an increase of $93.3 million when compared to the $149.7 million generated in the corresponding period in fiscal 2010. The increased cash from operations was primarily due to the increase in net income for the nine-month period and, the increase in non-cash expenses offset by the change in net working capital excluding the impact of acquisitions of $16.9 million.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities:

Cash used in investing activities consists of cash paid for acquisitions net of cash acquired and capital expenditures. We had a net cash outflow of $335.2 million for the nine-months ended July 1, 2011, compared to a net cash outflow of $65.6 million for the corresponding prior period. The increase resulted from cash paid in connection with acquisitions of $249.8 million (net of cash received in such acquisitions) primarily for the SiGe acquisition and increased capital expenditures during the year.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities:

Cash used in financing activities consists primarily of cash transactions related to debt and equity. We had net cash outflows of $51.4 million for the nine-months ended July 1, 2011. Specifically, we had the following significant uses of cash:

•

$60.2 million related to our repurchase of approximately 2.3 million shares of our common stock pursuant to the share repurchase program approved by our Board of Directors on August 3, 2010;

•

$50.0 million related to the repayment and termination of the Credit Facility; and

•

$19.9 million related to payroll tax withholdings on the vesting of employee performance and restricted stock awards.

These uses of cash were partially offset by the net proceeds from employee stock option exercises of $61.2 million, tax benefit from stock option exercises of $12.1 million and a decrease in restricted cash of $5.4 million for the nine-months ended July 1, 2011.

Liquidity:

Cash and cash equivalent balances decreased by $143.7 million to $309.6 million as of July 1, 2011 from $453.3 million at October 1, 2010. Our net cash position, after deducting our debt, decreased by $94.6 million to $283.9 million as of July 1, 2011 from $378.5 million at October 1, 2010. The decrease in cash was primarily related to our acquisition of SiGe during the three-months ended July 1, 2011. On May 26, 2011, we announced that we had entered into a definitive agreement under which we intend to acquire all the outstanding shares of AATI. We expect to pay between $100.0 million and $120.0 million in cash net of approximately $80.0 million to $90.0 million of cash expected to be received in the transaction. Based on our historical results of operations, we expect our existing sources of liquidity, together with cash expected to be generated from operations, will be sufficient to fund our research and development, capital expenditures, debt obligations, pending acquisitions, working capital and other cash requirements for at least the next 12 months. However, we cannot be certain that the capital required to fund these expenses will be available in the future. In addition, any strategic investments and acquisitions that we may make may require additional capital resources. If we are unable to obtain sufficient capital to meet our capital needs on a timely basis and on favorable terms, our business and operations could be materially and adversely affected.

Our invested cash balances primarily consist of money market funds and repurchase agreements where the underlying securities primarily consist of United States treasury obligations, United States agency obligations, overnight repurchase agreements backed by United States treasuries and/or United States agency obligations and highly rated commercial paper. Our invested cash balances also include certificates of deposit. As of July 1, 2011, we also held a $3.2 million par value auction rate security with a fair value of $2.3 million which we receive the scheduled interest payments on a monthly basis. We continue to monitor the liquidity and accounting classification of this security. If in a future period we determine that the impairment is other than temporary, we will impair the security to its fair value and charge the loss to earnings.

CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS

Our contractual obligations disclosure in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended October 1, 2010 has not materially changed since we filed that report, with the exception that we paid off and terminated the Credit Facility. Our borrowing arrangements are more fully described in Note 8 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Item 1 in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

We have no significant contractual obligations not fully recorded on our consolidated balance sheet or fully disclosed in the notes to our consolidated financial statements. We have no material off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in SEC Regulation S-K- Item 303(a)(4)(ii).

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

We are subject to foreign currency, investment, market and interest rate risks as described below:

Investment, Market and Interest Rate Risk

Our exposure to interest and market risk relates principally to our investment portfolio, which as of July 1, 2011 consisted of the following (in millions):


Cash and cash equivalents (time deposits, overnight repurchase agreements and money market funds)	$	309.7
Restricted cash (certificates of deposit)		0.7
Available for sale securities (auction rate securities)		2.3

Total	$	312.7

The main objective of our investment activities is the liquidity and preservation of capital. Credit risk associated with our investments is not significant as our investment policy prescribes high credit quality standards and limits the amount of credit exposure to any one issuer. We do not use derivative instruments for trading, speculative or investment purposes; however, we may use derivatives in the future.

In general, our cash and cash equivalent investments have short-term maturity periods, which dampen the impact of significant market or interest rate risk. We are, however, subject to overall financial market risks, such as changes in market liquidity, credit quality and interest rates. Available for sale securities of $2.3 million carry a longer maturity period (contractual maturities exceed ten years).

Our short-term debt at July 1, 2011 consists of $26.7 million aggregate principal amount of 2007 Convertible Notes. These 2007 Convertible Notes contain cash settlement provisions, which permit the application of the treasury stock method in determining potential share dilution of the conversion spread should the share price of the Company’s common stock exceed $9.52. It has been the Company’s historical practice to cash settle the principal and interest components of convertible debt instruments, and it is our intention to continue to do so in the future, including settlement of the 2007 Convertible Notes due in March 2012.

We do not believe that investment, market or interest rate risk are material to our business or results of operations.

Exchange Rate Risk

Substantially all sales to customers and arrangements with third-party manufacturers provide for pricing and payment in United States dollars, thereby reducing the impact of foreign exchange rate fluctuations on our results. A small percentage of our international operational expenses are denominated in foreign currencies. Exchange rate volatility could negatively or positively impact those operating costs. Increases in the value of the United States dollar relative to other currencies could make our products more expensive, which could negatively impact our ability to compete. Conversely, decreases in the value of the United States dollar relative to other currencies could result in our suppliers raising their prices to continue doing business with us. Fluctuations in currency exchange rates could have a greater effect on our business in the future to the extent our expenses increasingly become denominated in foreign currencies.

Item 4. 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 1, 2011. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are 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 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 principal executive and principal 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 management’s evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of July 1, 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.

(b) Changes in internal controls over financial reporting.

No changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) occurred during the nine-months ended July 1, 2011 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

From time to time, we are party to legal proceedings in the ordinary course of our business in addition to those described below. We do not, however, expect such other legal proceedings to have a material advise effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.

On June 6, 2011, a putative stockholder class action lawsuit was filed in California Superior Court in Santa Clara County (Case No. 111CV202403) (the “Bushansky action”) naming AATI, the members of AATI’s board of directors, us and Merger Sub as defendants. The complaint alleges, among other things, (1) that the members of AATI’s board of directors breached their fiduciary duties by (a) failing to take steps to maximize the value of the merger consideration to AATI’s stockholders, (b) taking steps to avoid competitive bidding, and (c) failing to protect against conflicts of interest resulting from change-of-control and transaction-related benefits received by AATI directors in connection with the merger that are not available to all stockholders, and (2) that AATI, the members of AATI’s board of directors, we and Merger Sub aided and abetted these purported breaches of fiduciary duties. The complaint seeks to enjoin consummation of the merger or, if the merger is completed, to recover damages caused by the alleged breaches of fiduciary duties. The complaint also seeks recovery of attorney’s fees and costs of the lawsuit.

On June 7, 2011, a putative stockholder class action lawsuit was filed in California Superior Court in Santa Clara County (Case No. 111CV202501) (the “Venette action”) naming AATI, the members of AATI’s board of directors, us and Merger Sub as defendants. Plaintiffs filed an amended complaint on July 14, 2011 (the “Amended Complaint”). The Amended Complaint alleges, among other things, (1) that the members of AATI’s board of directors breached their fiduciary duties by (a) agreeing to the merger for inadequate consideration on unfair terms, (b) failing to protect against conflicts of interest resulting from change-of-control and transaction-related benefits received by AATI directors in connection with the merger that are not available to all stockholders, (c) selling the company in response to alleged pressure from Dialectic Capital Partners, LP (“Dialectic”), (d) taking steps to avoid competitive bidding (including the entry by certain AATI officers and directors into agreements with us relating to voting commitments and inclusion in the merger agreement of nonsolicitation provisions and a termination fee), and (e) by causing the issuance of a materially misleading Form S-4 Registration Statement which, inter alia purportedly fails to disclose material facts surrounding (i) Dialectic’s impact on the proposed merger process, (ii) the AATI board of directors’ evaluation of us and our offer for AATI, and (iii) supporting figures and analysis regarding the fairness opinion that the AATI Board obtained from its financial advisor. Needham & Company, LLC, in connection with the transaction and (2) that AATI, the members of AATI’s board of directors, we and Merger Sub aided and abetted these purported breaches of fiduciary duties. The Amended Complaint seeks to enjoin consummation of the merger, and to have the court direct the defendants to implement procedures and processes to maximize shareholder value. The Amended Complaint also seeks recovery of attorney’s fees and costs of the lawsuit.

We believes that the claims in the consolidated action are without merit and intend to defend against such claims vigorously.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

In addition to the other information set forth in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, Item 1A Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended October 1, 2010, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

The following table provides information regarding repurchases of common stock made by us during the quarter ended July 1, 2011:


Period	Total Number of Shares Purchased			Average Price Paid per Share			Total Number of Shares Purchased as Part of Publicly Announced Plans or Programs (1)		Maximum Number (or Approximately Dollar Value) of Shares that May Yet Be Purchased Under the Plans or Programs

On August 3, 2010, the Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program, pursuant to which we are authorized to repurchase up to $200.0 million of our common stock from time to time on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions as permitted by securities laws and other legal requirements. The repurchase program is set to expire on August 3, 2012; however, it may be suspended or discontinued at any time prior to August 3, 2012. The repurchase program will be funded using our working capital.

(2)	Shares of common stock reported in the table above were repurchased by us at the fair market value of the common stock as of the period stated above, in connection with the satisfaction of tax withholding obligations under restricted stock agreements between us and certain of our employees.

(3)

750,000 shares were repurchased at an average price of $24.82 per share as part of our share repurchase program. 6,948 shares were repurchased with an average price of $24.26 per share in connection with the satisfaction of tax withholding obligations under restricted stock agreements between us and certain of our employees.
