II-VI Incorporated and Subsidiaries

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

 

Note 1. Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial statements of II-VI Incorporated (sometimes referred to herein as “II-VI” or the “Company”) for the three and six months ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation for the periods presented have been included. All adjustments are of a normal recurring nature unless disclosed otherwise. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2011. The consolidated results of operations for the three and six months ended December 31, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year. The June 30, 2011 Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet information was derived from the Company’s audited financial statements. Effective July 1, 2011, the Company renamed its former Compound Semiconductor Group reporting segment the Advanced Products Group. This name change has been reflected in this Form 10-Q and had no financial impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and footnote disclosures.

 

Note 2. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an accounting standard update related to goodwill impairment testing. The objective of the accounting standard update is to simplify how entities test goodwill for impairment by permitting an assessment of qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not (that is, a likelihood of more than 50 percent) that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test. This update also allows entities an unconditional option to bypass this qualitative assessment and proceed directly to performing the first step of the goodwill impairment test. An entity may resume performing the qualitative assessment in any subsequent period. This accounting standard update is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2011, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this update but does not expect it to have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In June 2011, the FASB issued changes to the presentation of comprehensive income which requires entities to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. Additionally, these changes require an entity to present on the face of the financial statements reclassification adjustments for items that are reclassified from other comprehensive income to net income in the statements where the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income are presented. The option to present components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity, which is the method of presentation used by the Company, will no longer be permitted. In addition, these changes will have no impact on the calculation and presentation of earnings per share. This guidance, as amended in December 2011, with retrospective application, becomes effective for the Company for interim and annual periods beginning in fiscal year 2013. Other than the change in presentation, these changes will not have an impact on the consolidated financial statements.

In May 2011, the FASB issued an accounting standard update on fair value measurement and disclosure requirements. The update amends certain fair value measurement guidance and expands disclosure requirements primarily for fair value measurements utilizing significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) and items not measured at fair value but for which fair value must be disclosed. This update becomes effective for the Company for interim and annual reporting periods beginning in the third quarter of fiscal year 2012. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In January 2010, the FASB issued amended standards requiring additional fair value disclosures. The amended standards require disclosures of transfers in and out of Levels 1 and 2 of the fair value hierarchy, as well as requiring gross basis disclosures for purchases, sales, issuances and settlements within the Level 3 reconciliation. Additionally, the update clarifies the requirement to determine the level of disaggregation for fair value measurement disclosures and to disclose valuation techniques and inputs used for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements in either Level 2 or Level 3. The Company adopted the new guidance in the third quarter of fiscal 2010, except for the disclosures related to purchases, sales,

issuance and settlements, which was adopted in the first quarter of fiscal 2012. Because these new standards are related primarily to disclosures, their adoption did not have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

Note 3. Stock Split

On May 17, 2011, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a two-for-one stock split, in the form of a stock dividend, of the Company’s common stock for shareholders of record on June 3, 2011. The stock split was distributed on June 24, 2011, issuing one additional share of common stock for every share of common stock held. The applicable share and per share data for all periods included herein have been restated to give effect to this stock split.

 

Note 4. Acquisitions

Aegis Lightwave, Inc.

In July 2011, the Company acquired all of the outstanding shares of Aegis Lightwave, Inc. (“Aegis”), a privately-held company based in Woburn, Massachusetts with additional locations in New Jersey and Australia, for approximately $46.1 million, net of cash acquired of $8.4 million. Aegis supplies tunable optical devices required for high speed optical networks that provide the bandwidth expansion necessary for increasing Internet traffic. As a result of the acquisition, the Company will enhance its product portfolio for the increasing deployments of 40G and 100G in flexible and reconfigurable optical networks, including those aimed at delivering fiber to the home services over passive optical networks. Aegis will work cooperatively with Photop Technologies, Inc. (“Photop”) to achieve synergies by leveraging and expanding combined optical communication product offerings around the world. The Company is in the process of completing its fair market valuation, including the valuation of certain tangible and intangible assets. The following table presents the preliminary allocation of the purchase price of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition, as the Company intends to finalize its accounting for the acquisition of Aegis during fiscal year 2012 ($000):

The goodwill of Aegis of approximately $20.0 million is included in the Near-Infrared Optics segment and is attributed to the expected synergies and the assembled workforce of Aegis. None of the goodwill is deductible for income tax purposes. The approximately $10.0 million of deferred tax assets of Aegis are primarily related to net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. The Company has considered any carryforward limitations and expirations and expects to fully utilize these carryforwards to offset future income taxes.

The amount of revenues and earnings of Aegis included in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statement of Earnings for the three and six months ended December 31, 2011 were revenues of $3.0 million and $7.8 million, respectively, and net losses of $1.4 million and $1.7 million, respectively. In conjunction with the acquisition of Aegis, the Company incurred approximately $0.9 million of transaction costs, which were expensed in fiscal year 2011 in accordance with current accounting standards.

In connection with the acquisition of Aegis in July 2011, the Company recorded the excess purchase price over the net assets of the business acquired as goodwill in the accompanying December 31, 2011 Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet, which was based on the preliminary purchase price allocation. The Company intends to finalize its accounting for the acquisition of Aegis during fiscal year 2012.

The Company reviews the recoverability of goodwill at least annually and any time business conditions indicate a potential change in recoverability. The evaluation of impairment involves comparing the current fair value of the Company’s reporting units to the recorded value (including goodwill). The Company uses a discounted cash flow model (“DCF model”) and a market analysis to determine the current fair value of its reporting units. A number of significant assumptions and estimates are involved in estimating the forecasted cash flows used in the DCF model, including markets and market shares, sales volume and pricing, costs to produce, working capital changes and income tax rates. Management considers historical experience and all available information at the time the fair values of the reporting units are estimated. However, actual fair values that could be realized could differ from those used to evaluate the impairment of goodwill.

The gross carrying amount and accumulated amortization of the Company’s intangible assets other than goodwill as of December 31, 2011 and June 30, 2011 was as follows ($000):

In connection with the acquisition of Aegis, the Company recorded identifiable intangible assets of $15.8 million as a result of the preliminary valuation. The Company intends to finalize its identifiable intangible asset valuation for Aegis during fiscal year 2012.

Amortization expense recorded on these intangible assets was $1.0 million and $2.0 million, for the three and six months ended December 31, 2011, respectively, and was $0.6 million and $1.2 million for the three and six months ended December 31, 2010, respectively. The patents are being amortized over a range of 120 to 240 months with a weighted average remaining life of approximately 127 months. The customer lists are being amortized over approximately 120 months with a weighted average remaining life of approximately 102 months. The gross carrying amount of trademarks includes $11.4 million of acquired trade names resulting from the acquisitions of Marlow Industries, Inc., Photop, MLA and Aegis. These trade names have indefinite lives and are not amortized but tested annually for impairment or more frequently if a triggering event occurs. Included in the gross carrying amount and accumulated amortization of the Company’s intangible assets is the effect of foreign currency translation of the portion relating to the Company’s German subsidiaries and Photop.

At December 31, 2011, the estimated amortization expense for existing intangible assets for each of the five succeeding fiscal years is as follows ($000):

The Company’s credit facility is a $50.0 million unsecured line of credit which, under certain conditions, may be expanded to $80.0 million. The credit facility has a five-year term through June 2016 and has an interest rate of LIBOR, as defined in the agreement, plus 0.625% to 1.50%. Additionally, the facility is subject to certain covenants, including those relating to minimum interest coverage and maximum leverage ratios. As of December 31, 2011, the Company was in compliance with all financial covenants. The Company had available $32.1 million and $34.1 million under its line of credit as of December 31, 2011 and June 30, 2011, respectively. The amounts available under the Company’s line of credit are reduced by outstanding letters of credit. As of December 31, 2011 and June 30, 2011, total outstanding letters of credit supported by the credit facilities were $0.9 million.

At December 31, 2011 and June 30, 2011, the Company had 300 million Yen borrowed under its Yen loan. Interest is at a rate equal to the Japanese Yen Base Rate, as defined in the loan agreement, plus 1.49%. The Japanese Yen Base Rate was 0.33% and 0.35% at December 31, 2011 and June 30, 2011, respectively.

The weighted average interest rate of total borrowings was 1.03% and 1.02%, respectively, for the three and six months ended December 31, 2011. The weighted average of total borrowings was $24.0 million and $22.8 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended December 31, 2011.

 

Note 10. Income Taxes

The Company’s year-to-date effective income tax rate at December 31, 2011 is 20.0% compared to an effective income tax rate of 23.0% for the same period last fiscal year. The variation between the Company’s effective tax rate and the U.S. statutory rate of 35.0% is primarily due to the consolidation of the Company’s foreign operations, which are subject to income taxes at lower statutory rates. A change in the mix of pretax income from these various tax jurisdictions could have a material impact on our periodic effective tax rate. During the three months ended December 31, 2011, certain of the Company’s Photop subsidiaries received notification of approval of high-technology status in China for calendar year 2011 through 2013. As a result, these subsidiaries will be subject to a preferential income tax rate of 15% for these periods, resulting in an income tax benefit of $1.3 million that was recorded in the quarter ended December 31, 2011.

U.S. GAAP clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return.

As of December 31, 2011 and June 30, 2011, the gross unrecognized income tax benefit was $3.7 million and $5.0 million, respectively. The Company has classified the uncertain tax positions as non-current income tax liabilities, as the amounts are not expected to be paid within one year. If recognized, substantially all of the gross unrecognized tax benefits at December 31, 2011 would impact the effective tax rate. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in the income tax provision on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings. Included in the $3.7 million and $5.0 million of gross unrecognized income tax benefit at December 31, 2011 and June 30, 2011, was $0.2 million of accrued interest and penalties. The Company expects a decrease of approximately $0.9 million of unrecognized tax benefits within the next twelve months.

Fiscal years 2008, 2010 and 2011 remain open to examination by the United States Internal Revenue Service, fiscal years 2007 to 2011 remain open to examination by certain state jurisdictions, and fiscal years 2005 to 2011 remain open to examination by certain foreign taxing jurisdictions. During the three months ended December 31, 2011, the examination by the United States Internal Revenue Service of the Company’s fiscal year 2009 federal income tax return was closed with no significant findings. As a result, the Company recorded an income tax benefit of $0.7 million from the reversal of a tax liability related to uncertain tax positions related to fiscal year 2009. The Company’s fiscal years 2007, 2008, and 2009 California state income tax returns are under examination by the State of California’s Franchise Tax Board.

Note 12. Segment Reporting

The Company reports its business segments using the “management approach” model for segment reporting. The Company determines its reportable business segments based on the way the chief operating decision maker organizes business segments within the Company for making operating decisions and assessing performance.

The Company has four reportable segments. The Company’s chief operating decision maker receives and reviews financial information in this format. The Company evaluates business segment performance based upon reported business segment earnings, which is defined as earnings before income taxes, interest and other income or expense. The segments are managed separately due to the production requirements and facilities that are unique to each segment. The Company has the following reportable segments at December 31, 2011: (i) Infrared Optics, which is the Company’s infrared optics and material products businesses, HIGHYAG Lasertechnologie GmbH (“HIGHYAG”) and remaining corporate activities, primarily corporate assets and capital expenditures; (ii) Near-Infrared Optics, which is the Company’s VLOC Incorporated subsidiary, and Vietnam near-infrared operations, Photop, and Aegis; (iii) Military & Materials, which is the Company’s Exotic Electro-Optics, Inc. (“EEO”) subsidiary, Pacific Rare Specialty Metals & Chemicals, Inc. subsidiary (“PRM”), and MLA; and (iv) Advanced Products Group (formerly the Compound Semiconductor Group), which is comprised of the Company’s Marlow Industries, Inc. (“Marlow”) subsidiary, the Wide Bandgap Materials Group (“WBG”) and the Worldwide Materials Group (“WMG”); WMG is responsible for the corporate research and development activities.

The Infrared Optics segment is divided into geographic locations in the U.S., Singapore, China, Germany, Switzerland, Japan, Belgium, the U.K. and Italy. The Infrared Optics segment is directed by a general manager, while each geographic location is also directed by a general manager, and is further divided into production and administrative units that are directed by managers.

Note 13. Share-Based Compensation

The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company grants employee stock option awards, restricted share awards and performance share awards under the Company’s 2009 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The Company records share-based compensation expense for these awards in accordance with U.S. GAAP which requires the recognition of the fair value of share-based compensation in net earnings. The Company recognizes the share-based compensation expense over the requisite service period of the individual grantees, which generally equals the vesting period. During the three and six months ended December 31, 2011, the Company recorded $2.6 million and $7.2 million, respectively, of share-based compensation expense in its Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings. During the three and six months ended December 31, 2010, the Company recorded $2.2 million and $6.0 million, respectively, of share-based compensation expense in its Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings. The share-based compensation expense is allocated approximately 20% to cost of goods sold and 80% to selling, general and administrative expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings based on the employee classification of the grantees.

Stock Options:

The Company utilizes the Black-Scholes valuation model for estimating the fair value of stock option awards. During the three and six months ended December 31, 2011, the weighted-average fair values of options granted under the Plan were $8.33 and $9.33 per option, respectively, and $9.97 and $8.39 per option for the three and six months ended December 31, 2010, respectively, using the following assumptions:

Dividend yield

     None        None        None        None   

The risk-free interest rate is derived from the average U.S. Treasury Note rate during the period, which approximates the rate in effect at the time of grant related to the expected life of the options. The risk-free interest rate shown above is the weighted-average rate for all options granted during the periods. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s Common Stock over the period commensurate with the expected life of the options. The expected life calculation is based on the observed and expected time to post-vesting exercises and forfeitures of options by our employees. The dividend yield of zero is based on the fact that the Company has never paid cash dividends and has no intention to pay cash dividends in the future. The estimated annualized forfeitures are based on the Company’s historical experience of option pre-vesting cancellations and are generally estimated at a rate of 16%. The Company will record additional expense in future periods if the actual forfeiture rate is lower than estimated, and will record a recovery of prior expense if the actual forfeiture rate is higher than estimated. Generally, twenty percent of each stock option award may be exercised one year from the date of grant with comparable annual increases on a cumulative basis each year thereafter. The stock option plan also has vesting provisions predicated upon the death, retirement or disability of the grantee. Included in the $2.6 million and $7.2 million of share-based compensation expense for the three and six months ended December 31, 2011, was $1.1 million and $4.0 million, respectively, of share-based compensation expense related to stock option awards. Included in the $2.2 million and $6.0 million of share-based compensation expense for the three and six months ended December 31, 2010, was $1.3 million and $4.0 million, respectively, of share-based compensation expense related to stock option awards.

Restricted Share Awards:

The restricted share awards compensation expense was calculated based on the number of shares expected to be earned by the grantee multiplied by the stock price at the date of grant and is being recognized over the vesting period. Generally, the restricted share awards have a three year cliff-vesting provision and an estimated forfeiture rate of 7.5%. Included in the $2.6 million and $7.2 million of share-based compensation expense for the three and six months ended December 31, 2011, was $0.7 million and $1.5 million, respectively, of share-based compensation expense related to restricted share awards. Included in the $2.2 million and $6.0 million of share-based compensation expense for the three and six months ended December 31, 2010, was $0.3 million and $0.7 million, respectively, of share-based compensation expense related to restricted share awards.

Performance Share Awards:

The Compensation Committee granted certain named executive officers and employees performance share awards under the Plan. During the three and six months ended December 31, 2011, the Company had three outstanding performance share grants covering the periods from July 2010 to June 2012, July 2011 to June 2013, and July 2011 to December 2014. The awards are intended to provide continuing emphasis on specified financial performance goals that the Company considers important contributors to long-term shareholder value. The awards are payable only if the Company achieves specified levels of revenue and/or cash flows from operations for the applicable performance periods.

In conjunction with the Company’s acquisition of Photop, the Compensation Committee established a long-term performance and retention program under the Plan for certain Photop employees. This program covers periods from January 1, 2010 to December 31, 2012. Participants are eligible to receive performance shares following each of the calendar years 2010, 2011 and 2012. The awards are only payable if Photop achieves the levels of revenue and earnings specified for each calendar year performance period as well as certain other non-financial performance targets pre-established for such performance period.

Performance shares compensation expense is calculated based on the estimated number of shares expected to be earned multiplied by the stock price at the date of grant. Included in the $2.6 million and $7.2 million of share-based compensation expense for the three and six months ended December 31, 2011, was $0.8 million and $1.7 million, respectively, of share-based compensation expense related to performance share awards. Included in the $2.2 million and $6.0 million of share-based compensation expense for the three and six months ended December 31, 2010, was $0.6 million and $1.3 million, respectively, of share-based compensation expense related to performance share awards.

 

Note 14. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The FASB defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous markets for the asset and liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Company estimates fair value of its financial instruments utilizing an established three-level hierarchy in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date as follows:

 

   

Level 1 – Valuation is based upon unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

 

   

Level 2 – Valuation is based upon quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, or other inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instruments.

 

   

Level 3 – Valuation is based upon other unobservable inputs that are significant to the fair value measurements.

The classification of fair value measurements within the hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the measurement. At December 31, 2011, the Company had foreign currency forward contracts recorded at fair value. The fair values of these instruments were measured using valuations based upon quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets (Level 2) and are valued by reference to similar financial instruments, adjusted for credit risk and restrictions and other terms specific to the contracts. At December 31, 2011, the Company had a contingent earnout arrangement recorded at fair value related to the acquisition of Photop. The fair value of the earnout arrangement was based on significant inputs not observable in the market and represents a Level 3 measurement as defined in ASC 820. The Company uses the income approach in measuring the fair value of the earnout arrangement, which included a 0.93% discount rate and an assumed 100% probability of achieving the financial targets under the earnout arrangement. The fair value remeasurement of the earnout arrangement for the three and six months ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 was insignificant. In conjunction with the July 2011 acquisition of Aegis, the Company acquired a Level 1 investment in the form of a certificate of deposit that matures in July of 2012 and was recorded at fair value as of December 31, 2011. The fair value remeasurement of the certificate of deposit for the three and six months ended December 31, 2011 was insignificant. The following table provides a summary by level of the fair value of financial instruments that are measured on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2011 ($000):

Note 15. Derivative Instruments

The Company, from time to time, purchases foreign currency forward exchange contracts, primarily in Japanese Yen, that permit it to sell specified amounts of these foreign currencies expected to be received from its export sales for pre-established U.S. dollar amounts at specified dates. These contracts are entered into to limit transactional exposure to changes in currency exchange rates of export sales transactions in which settlement will occur in future periods and which otherwise would expose the Company, on the basis of its aggregate net cash flows in respective currencies, to foreign currency risk.

The Company has recorded the difference in the fair market value and the contract value of these contracts on the statement of financial position. These contracts had a total contract value of $7.7 million and $7.8 million at December 31, 2011 and June 30, 2011, respectively. As of December 31, 2011, these forward contracts had expiration dates ranging from January 6, 2012 through April 3, 2012 with Japanese Yen denominations individually ranging from 100 million Yen to 170 million Yen. The Company does not account for these contracts as hedges as defined by U.S. GAAP and records the change in the fair value of these contracts in the results of operations as they occur. The fair value measurement takes into consideration foreign currency rates and the current creditworthiness of the counterparties to these contracts, as applicable, and is based upon quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, or other inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instruments and thus represents a Level 2 measurement. These contracts are recorded in Other accrued liabilities or Prepaid and other current assets in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The change in the fair value of these contracts for the three and six months ended December 31, 2011 was insignificant.

 

Note 16. Commitments and Contingencies

The Company records a warranty reserve as a charge against earnings based on a percentage of sales utilizing actual returns over the last twelve months. The following table summarizes the change in the carrying value of the Company’s warranty reserve, which is a component of Other accrued liabilities in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of and for the six months ended December 31, 2011 ($000):

Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Forward-Looking Statements

This Management’s Discussion and Analysis contains forward-looking statements as defined by Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, including any statements regarding projected growth rates, markets, product development, financial position, capital expenditures and foreign currency exposure. Forward-looking statements are also identified by words such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans,” “projects” or similar expressions.

Actual results could materially differ from such statements due to the following factors: materially adverse changes in economic or industry conditions generally (including capital markets) or in the markets served by the Company, the development and use of new technology and the actions of competitors. There are additional risk factors that could affect the Company’s business, results of operations or financial condition. Investors are encouraged to review the risk factors set forth in the Company’s most recent Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 26, 2011 and in the Company’s Form 10-Q for September 30, 2011.

Introduction

II-VI Incorporated (“II-VI,” the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”), the worldwide leader in crystal growth technology, is a vertically-integrated manufacturing company that creates and markets products for diversified markets including industrial manufacturing, military and aerospace, high-power electronics, optical communications and thermoelectronics applications.

The Company generates revenues, earnings and cash flows from developing, manufacturing and marketing high technology materials and derivative products for precision use in industrial, optical communications, military, medical and aerospace applications. We also generate revenue, earnings and cash flows from external customer and government funded research and development contracts relating to the development and manufacture of new technologies, materials and products.

Our customer base includes original equipment manufacturers (“OEM”), laser end users, system integrators of high-power lasers, manufacturers of equipment and devices for industrial, optical communications, security and monitoring applications, U.S. government prime contractors, various U.S. government agencies and thermoelectric solutions suppliers.

Effective July 1, 2011, the Company renamed its former Compound Semiconductor Group reporting segment the Advanced Products Group.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the Company’s discussion and analysis of its financial condition and results of operations require the Company’s management to make judgments, assumptions and estimates that affect the amounts reported in its condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s most recent Form 10-K describes the significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Management believes the Company’s critical accounting estimates are those related to revenue recognition, allowance for doubtful accounts, warranty reserves, inventory valuation, valuation of long-lived assets including acquired intangibles and goodwill, accrual of bonus and profit sharing estimates, accrual of income tax liability estimates and accounting for share-based payments. Management believes these estimates to be critical because they are both important to the portrayal of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations, and they require management to make judgments and estimates about matters that are inherently uncertain.

The Company recognizes revenues when the criteria of SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin: No. 104 – “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements” (“SAB 104”) are met. Revenues for product shipments are realizable when we have persuasive evidence of a sales arrangement, the product has been shipped or delivered, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured. Title and risk of loss passes from the Company to its customer at the time of shipment in all cases with the exception of certain customers. For these customers, which represent approximately 5% of our consolidated revenues, title does not pass and revenue is not recognized until the customer has received the product at its physical location. The Company’s revenue recognition policy is consistently applied across the Company’s segments, product lines and geographical locations.

Table of Contents

Further, we do not have post-shipment obligations such as training or installation, customer acceptance provisions, credits and discounts, rebates and price protection or other similar privileges. Our distributors and agents are not granted price protection. Our distributors and agents, who comprise less than 10% of consolidated revenue, have no additional product return rights beyond the right to return defective products that are covered by our warranty policy. We believe our revenue recognition practices are consistent with SAB 104, and that we have adequately considered the requirements of ASC 605 Revenue Recognition. Revenues generated from transactions other than product shipments are contract related and have historically accounted for less than 5% of the Company’s consolidated revenues.

We establish an allowance for doubtful accounts and warranty reserves based on historical experience and believe the collection of revenues, net of these reserves, is reasonably assured. Our allowance for doubtful accounts and warranty reserve balances at December 31, 2011 were $1.4 million and $1.3 million, respectively. Our reserve estimates have historically been proven to be materially correct based upon actual charges incurred.

New Accounting Standards

Executive Summary

Net earnings attributable to II-VI Incorporated for the three months ended December 31, 2011 were $13,287,000 ($0.21 per-share diluted). This compares to net earnings attributable to II-VI Incorporated of $19,157,000 ($0.30 per-share diluted) for the same period last fiscal year. Net earnings attributable to II-VI Incorporated for the six months ended December 31, 2011 were $31,866,000 ($0.50 per-share diluted). This compares to net earnings attributable to II-VI Incorporated of $37,524,000 ($0.59 per-share diluted) for the same period last fiscal year. Although total revenues increased for the three and six months ended December 31, 2011 when compared to the same periods last fiscal year, net earnings were negatively impacted as a result of certain events that were outside the normal operating conditions for the Company. Specifically, operating results for the three and six months ended December 31, 2011 were negatively impacted by an after-tax write-down of tellurium inventory of $2.2 million, or $0.03 per-share diluted, at our PRM business unit as well as a $0.7 million, or $0.01 per-share diluted, after-tax impairment charge related to damaged machinery, equipment and inventory at our Aegis business unit. The write-down of the tellurium inventory at PRM was driven by declining global tellurium index prices. The impairment at Aegis was attributable to the October 2011 flooding that occurred in Thailand which significantly impacted the production facility of Fabrinet, a contract manufacturer used by Aegis. In addition to the items noted above, the Company’s Photop business unit continued to experience compressed gross margins in fiscal year 2012 due to a shift in product mix. The Company also continued to invest in internal research and development at Photop and Aegis in an effort to expand and improve current product offerings in the optical communications market. The impact of these items on net earnings was somewhat offset by favorable tax adjustments of $2.0 million recorded during the three months ended December 31, 2011. Specifically, certain of the Company’s Photop subsidiaries in China obtained high-technology status which grants preferential tax rate treatment by reducing the statutory tax rate of 25% to 15%. In addition, the Company reversed tax liabilities related to uncertain tax positions as a result of the completion of the U.S. Internal Revenue Services’ examination of the fiscal year 2009 tax return.

Consolidated

Bookings. Bookings for the three months ended December 31, 2011 decreased 12.9% to $116,883,000, compared to $134,128,000 for the same period last fiscal year. Bookings for the six months ended December 31, 2011 remained relatively consistent at $247,130,000, compared to $246,178,000 for the same period last fiscal year. Bookings are defined as customer orders received that are expected to be converted to revenues over the next twelve months. For long-term customer orders, the Company does not include in bookings the portion of the customer order that is beyond twelve months, due to the inherent uncertainty of an order that far out in the future. Overall, the volatility and uncertainty in worldwide economies has impacted the majority of the Company’s business units in the current fiscal year in regard to order patterns as certain customer orders were delayed, and customers placed orders for smaller quantities and lead times. Bookings for the Infrared Optics segment were impacted by the current economic turmoil in Europe while demand in the low-power Asian markets has slowed in comparison to the same periods last fiscal year, mostly due to concerns regarding growth in China. Excluding Aegis, bookings at the Near-Infrared

Table of Contents

Optics segment decreased as a result of the inventory correction that was prevalent throughout the optical communications market, which specifically impacted Photop. Weakening demand in the photovoltaic market has applied downward pressure on the index price of tellurium, thus reducing bookings activities at the Company’s PRM business unit. In addition, the Company’s Marlow business unit experienced a delay in funding for a major Department of Energy contract as well as certain order delays from customers across many of the industries in which it operates.

Revenues. Revenues for the three months ended December 31, 2011 increased 4.9% to $126,757,000, compared to $120,887,000 for the same period last fiscal year. Revenues for the six months ended December 31, 2011 increased 10.0% to $265,130,000 compared to $241,021,000 for the same period last fiscal year. The increase in revenues for the three and six months ended December 31, 2011 compared to the same periods last fiscal year was attributable to the Infrared Optics and Military & Materials segments. The Infrared Optics segment benefited from higher laser utilization rates worldwide as well as strengthening demand for products manufactured by the segment’s HIGHYAG business unit. The Military & Materials segment benefited from increased shipment volumes for selenium and tellurium at the Company’s PRM business unit resulting from increased demand. These increases in revenues were somewhat offset by lower shipment volume at the VLOC business unit within the Near-Infrared Optics segment as a result of decreased military demand for both the UV Filter product line and contract research and development activities.

Gross margin. Gross margin for the three months ended December 31, 2011 was $43,468,000, or 34.3% of total revenues, compared to $50,036,000, or 41.4% of total revenues, for the same period last fiscal year. Gross margin for the six months ended December 31, 2011 was $98,478,000, or 37.1% of total revenues, compared to $99,272,000 or 41.2% of total revenues, for the same period last fiscal year. A major contributor to the lower gross margin for the three and six months ended December 31, 2011, was the inventory write-down and compressed gross margins of tellurium products at PRM caused by the significant decline in tellurium index prices. In addition, the Company’s Aegis subsidiary recognized an impairment charge for machinery, equipment and inventory that were damaged as a result of the Thailand flooding at Fabrinet. Furthermore, a shift in product mix at the Company’s Photop business unit to products with lower margin profiles negatively impacted gross margins during the three and six months ended December 31, 2011 when compared to the same periods last fiscal year.

Internal research and development. Company-funded internal research and development expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2011 were $5,016,000, or 4.0% of revenues, compared to $3,357,000, or 2.8% of revenues, for the same period last fiscal year. Company-funded internal research and development expenses for the six months ended December 31, 2011 were $10,179,000, or 3.8% of revenues, compared to $7,203,000, or 3.0% of revenues, for the same period last fiscal year. This increase in Company-funded internal research and development expenses was primarily the result of ongoing research and development investment at Photop and Aegis within the Near Infrared optics segment. Photop is focusing research and development efforts on optical communication and commercial optic markets, specifically regarding optical switching router modules for data network customers as well as certain solutions for 40G and 100G optical networks. In conjunction with the addition of recently acquired Aegis, the Company is currently investing in new product development of optical channel monitors and high-power fiber couplers and combiners.

Selling, general and administrative. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2011 were $24,214,000, or 19.1% of revenues, compared to $21,991,000 or 18.2% of revenues, for the same period last fiscal year. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended December 31, 2011 were $51,026,000, or 19.2% of revenues, compared to $44,720,000 or 18.6% of revenues, for the same period last fiscal year. Selling, general and administrative expense as a percentage of revenues has normalized with the slow recovery of the global economic recession and has remained materially consistent during the three and six months ended December 31, 2011 compared to the same periods last fiscal year.

Interest and other, net. Interest and other, net for the three and six months ended December 31, 2011 was income of $1,429,000 and $3,000,000, respectively. The majority of interest and other, net for the three months ended December 31, 2011 was the result of foreign currency gains of approximately $0.9 million. The majority of interest and other, net for the six months ended December 31, 2011 was the result of foreign currency gains of approximately $0.6 million as well as a $1.4 million gain related to the sale of precious metals inventory used in the production process. In addition, the Company benefited from earnings of equity investments, unrealized gains on the deferred compensation plan and net interest income on excess cash reserves during the three and six months ended December 31, 2011. Interest and other, net for the three and six months ended December 31, 2010 was expense of $485,000 and income of $1,547,000, respectively. The majority of interest and other, net for the three and six months ended December 31, 2010 was the result of foreign currency gains and losses as well as earnings from the Company’s equity investments, unrealized gains on the deferred compensation plan and interest income on excess cash reserves.

Income taxes. The Company’s year-to-date effective income tax rate at December 31, 2011 was 20.0% compared to an effective tax rate of 23.0% for the same period last fiscal year. During the three months ended December 31, 2011, certain of the Company’s Photop subsidiaries received notification of approval of high-technology status in China for calendar years 2011 through 2013. As a result, these subsidiaries will be subject to pay income taxes at a preferential rate of 15% for the periods described above resulting in an income tax benefit of $1.3 million recorded during the three months ended December 31, 2011. In addition, the Company recorded an income tax benefit of $0.7 million from the reversal of a tax liability related to an uncertain tax position as a result of the examination by the United States Internal Revenue Service of the Company’s fiscal year 2009 federal income tax return, which was closed with no significant findings. The variation between the Company’s effective tax rate and the U.S. statutory rate of 35% is primarily due to the Company’s foreign operations which are subject to income taxes at lower statutory rates.

Segment Reporting

Bookings, revenues and segment earnings for the Company’s reportable segments are discussed below. Segment earnings differ from income from operations in that segment earnings exclude certain operational expenses included in other expense (income) – net as reported. Management believes segment earnings to be a useful measure as it reflects the results of segment performance over which management has direct control and is used by management in its evaluation of segment performance. See “Note 12. Segment Reporting,” to our unaudited financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report for further information on the Company’s reportable segments and for the reconciliation of segment earnings to net earnings.

The Company’s Infrared Optics segment includes the combined operations of Infrared Optics and HIGHYAG.

Bookings for the three months ended December 31, 2011 for Infrared Optics decreased 7% to $43,773,000, compared to $47,006,000 for the same period last fiscal year. The decrease in bookings for the three months ended December 31, 2011 compared to the same period last fiscal year was primarily driven by softening demand related to the military infrared market in the U.S. and the industrial market in Europe. In addition, the low-power markets in Asia specific to consumer electronics and medical manufacturing industries resulted in decreased bookings as China’s economy continued to show signs of reduced acceleration. Low-power marking and drilling segments in Japan also contributed to the decline in demand in the Asia region. Bookings for the six months ended December 31, 2011 for Infrared Optics increased 7% to $94,871,000, compared to $88,308,000 for the same period last fiscal year. The increase in bookings for the six months ended December 31, 2011 compared to the same period last fiscal year was the result of higher demand for replacement optics used in high-power CO2 laser systems as well as strong market growth and demand at HIGHYAG for one micron beam delivery components used in laser applications.

Revenues for the three months ended December 31, 2011 for Infrared Optics increased 15% to $46,762,000 compared to $40,642,000 for the same period last fiscal year. Revenues for the six months ended December 31, 2011 increased 19% to $97,558,000 compared to $81,868,000 for the same period last fiscal year. The increase in revenues for the three and six months ended December 31, 2011 compared to the same periods last fiscal year was primarily due to higher shipment volume to both low-power OEM’s and high-power aftermarket customers resulting from increased laser utilization worldwide. In addition, the continued adoption and qualification of HIGHYAG products into the one micron beam delivery market contributed to the revenue increase.

Segment earnings for the three months ended December 31, 2011 for Infrared Optics increased 22% to $11,470,000, compared to $9,420,000 for the same period last fiscal year. Segment earnings for the six months ended December 31, 2011 increased 32% to $23,827,000, compared to $18,068,000 for the same period last fiscal year. The increase in segment earnings for the three and six months ended December 31, 2011 compared to the same periods last fiscal year was primarily due to the additional margin realized on the segment’s higher revenue levels as well as favorable operating leverage from strategic cost-containment efforts to ensure incremental revenues outpaced incremental operating costs.

The Company’s Near-Infrared Optics segment includes the combined operations of VLOC, Photop and Aegis. The above results include Aegis for the three and six months ended December 31, 2011 only, as this acquisition was completed in July 2011.

Bookings for the three months ended December 31, 2011 for Near-Infrared Optics decreased 3% to $34,939,000, compared to $35,906,000 for the same period last fiscal year. Bookings for the six months ended December 31, 2011 increased 5% to $73,313,000, compared to $69,722,000 for the same period last fiscal year. Excluding Aegis, bookings for the three and six months ended December 31, 2011 compared to the same periods last fiscal year decreased, as Photop experienced slower order intake from major Chinese customers in the optical communications market who have recently been impacted by inventory corrections across the industry. Furthermore, VLOC experienced a decline in orders from current military customers for contract research and development and its UV Filter product line due to military budget constraints and uncertainty in regard to funding levels.

Revenues for the three months ended December 31, 2011 for Near-Infrared Optics decreased 5% to $39,468,000, compared to $41,418,000 for the same period last fiscal year. Revenues for the six months ended December 31, 2011 decreased 1% to $77,578,000, compared to $78,363,000 for the same period last fiscal year. Excluding Aegis, revenues decreased due to declining shipment volumes at VLOC of its UV Filter product line and other military related products as well as decreased contract revenues.

Segment earnings for the three months ended December 31, 2011 for Near-Infrared Optics decreased 79% to $1,684,000, compared to $8,068,000 for the same period last fiscal year. Segment earnings for the six months ended December 31, 2011 decreased 77% to $3,392,000, compared to $14,949,000 for the same period last fiscal year. The decrease in segment earnings was attributed to operating losses incurred by Aegis as a result of the flooding in Thailand. Specifically, Aegis lost the majority of its production capabilities in October 2011 as the facilities at Fabrinet were severely damaged and ceased operations. This resulted in lost revenues as well as an impairment charge for damaged machinery, equipment and inventory. In addition, Photop experienced a decline in gross margin resulting from an unfavorable product mix as optical communication sales with higher margin product profiles have declined during the current three and six month periods. In addition, Photop continues to increase investment levels of internal research and development activities in both the optical communication and commercial optic markets, including high-speed optical network components, broadband access and laser components for selective projects. Furthermore, VLOC experienced an unfavorable change in earnings as a result of the declining military related revenues.

applications. In addition, this decline in tellurium product demand contributed to the substantial fall in the index price of tellurium which also negatively impacted segment bookings during the current quarter. Bookings for the six months ended December 31, 2011 for Military & Materials increased 3% to $46,344,000 compared to $44,871,000 for the same period last fiscal year. Excluding MLA, bookings for the six months ended December 31, 2011 compared to the same period last fiscal year decreased slightly, mostly due to the aforementioned effect of tellurium demand and pricing at PRM.

Revenues for the three months ended December 31, 2011 for Military & Materials increased 22% to $23,703,000, compared to $19,467,000 for the same period last fiscal year. Revenues for the six months ended December 31, 2011 for Military & Materials increased 20% to $47,362,000 compared to $39,602,000 for the same period last fiscal year. Although the tellurium index price substantially declined during December 2011, the majority of the impact on revenues at PRM will not be recognized until the second half of fiscal year 2012. As such, the increase in revenues for the three and six months ended December 31, 2011 compared to the same periods last fiscal year was primarily due to higher shipment volumes of selenium and tellurium at PRM.

Segment loss for the three months ended December 31, 2011 for Military & Materials was $386,000, compared to segment earnings of $3,425,000 for the same period last fiscal year. The segment loss for the three months ended December 31, 2011 was a result of an inventory write-down of tellurium of $2.2 million at PRM as well as compressed gross margins from tellurium products sold that were previously purchased at higher raw material index prices. Segment earnings for the six months ended December 31, 2011 for Military & Materials decreased 64% to $2,576,000 compared to $7,146,000 for the same period last fiscal year. The decrease in segment earnings is a result of the factors noted above as well as the recording of a bad debt provision resulting from a bankruptcy by a customer in the photovoltaic industry at PRM during the quarter ended September 30, 2011.

The Company’s Advanced Products Group (formerly, Compound Semiconductor Group) includes the combined operations of Marlow, WBG and WMG.

Bookings for the three months ended December 31, 2011 for the Advanced Products Group decreased 46% to $11,628,000 compared to $21,616,000 for the same period last fiscal year. Bookings for the six months ended December 31, 2011 for the Advanced Products Group decreased 25% to $32,602,000 compared to $43,277,000 for the same period last fiscal year. The decrease in bookings for the three and six months ended December 31, 2011 compared to the same periods last fiscal year was primarily due to a delay in the release of the next phase of a major Department of Energy contract at Marlow as well as some unanticipated order delays for Marlow products in the industrial, optical communication and power generation markets. The segment’s WBG business unit also realized a bookings decrease due to the timing of a $5.2 million contract order from the U.S. Department of Defense that was received in the first half of fiscal year 2011 that is not expected to be received until the second half of fiscal year 2012.

Revenues for the three months ended December 31, 2011 for the Advanced Products Group decreased 13% to $16,824,000 compared to $19,360,000 for the same period last fiscal year. The decrease in revenues for the three months ended December 31, 2011 compared to the same period last fiscal year was primarily due to lower shipment volumes of the gesture recognition and optical communications product lines at Marlow. The decline in gesture recognition shipment volumes is primarily attributed to the year over year timing of inventory builds at our customer as well as some general softening in demand for this product line. Revenues for the six months ended December 31, 2011 for the Advanced Products Group increased 4% to $42,632,000 compared to $41,188,000 for the same period last fiscal year. The increase in revenues for the six months ended December 31, 2011 compared to the same period last fiscal year was primarily due to higher shipment volumes at WBG of large diameter Silicon Carbide substrates for radio frequency applications used in the commercial and defense markets.

Segment earnings for the three months ended December 31, 2011 decreased 61% to $1,470,000 compared to $3,775,000 for the same period last fiscal year. The decrease in segment earnings for the three months ended December 31, 2011 compared to the same period last fiscal year was primarily due to a decline in gross margin at Marlow resulting from unfavorable product mix as

gesture recognition product sales with higher margin profiles have declined during the current three month period. Segment earnings for the six months ended December 31, 2011 increased 4% to $7,478,000 compared to $7,186,000 for the same period last fiscal year. The increase in segment earnings for the six months ended December 31, 2011 compared to the same period last fiscal year was primarily due to the marginal increase in revenue levels.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Historically, our primary source of cash has been provided through operations. Other sources of cash include proceeds received from the exercises of stock options and long-term borrowings. Our historical uses of cash have been for capital expenditures, purchases of businesses, payment of principal and interest on outstanding debt obligations and purchases of treasury stock. Supplemental information pertaining to our sources and uses of cash for the periods indicated is presented as follows:

Cash provided by operating activities was $42,913,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2011 compared to cash provided by operating activities of $33,012,000 for the same period last fiscal year. The increase in cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended December 31, 2011 compared to the same period last fiscal year was the result of higher non-cash adjustments for depreciation, amortization and share-based compensation as well as improved working capital management. These increases were somewhat offset by lower net earnings realized during the six months ended December 31, 2011 when compared to the same period last fiscal year.

Net cash used in investing activities was $69,185,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2011 compared to net cash used of $26,421,000 for the same period last fiscal year. The majority of the increase in net cash used in investing activities was the result of the acquisition of Aegis in July 2011 as well as increased capital spending to support the Company’s efforts to expand capacity to meet long-term expected business requirements.

Net cash provided by financing activities during the six months ended December 31, 2011 mostly consisted of net long-term borrowings of $705,000 as well as proceeds from the exercise of stock options of $452,000. Net cash provided by financing activities during the six months ended December 31, 2010 consisted of proceeds from the exercise of stock options of $3,278,000 and the excess tax benefits from share-based compensation expense of $1,813,000.

In June 2011, the Company replaced its existing credit facility that was set to expire. The new credit facility is a $50.0 million unsecured line of credit which, under certain conditions, may be expanded to $80.0 million. The new credit facility has a five-year term through June 2016, and has interest rate of LIBOR, as defined in the agreement, plus 0.625% to 1.50%. Additionally, the facility is subject to certain covenants, including those relating to minimum interest coverage and maximum leverage ratios. As of December 31, 2011, the Company was in compliance with all financial covenants.

The Company’s cash position, borrowing capacity and debt obligations for the periods indicated were as follows ($000’s):

Cash and cash equivalents

Available borrowing capacity

     32,100         34,100   

Total debt obligation

     20,888         18,729   

The Company’s cash and cash equivalent balances are generated and held in numerous locations throughout the world, including amounts held outside the United States. Cash balances held outside the United States could be repatriated to the United States, but, under current law, would potentially be subject to United States federal income taxes, less applicable foreign tax credits. The Company has not recorded deferred income taxes related to cash balances held outside of the United States as the undistributed earnings of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries are indefinitely reinvested. The Company believes cash flow from operations, available cash reserves and borrowing capacity will be sufficient to fund its working capital needs, capital expenditures, debt payments and internal growth for the remainder of fiscal year 2012.

(1) Variable rate interest obligations are based on the interest rate in place at December 31, 2011.
(2) A purchase obligation is defined as an agreement to purchase goods or services that is enforceable and legally binding on the Company and that specifies all significant terms, including fixed or minimum quantities to be purchased; minimum or variable price provisions, and the approximate timing of the transaction. These amounts are primarily comprised of open purchase order commitments to vendors for the purchase of supplies and materials and unpaid purchase prices for the Company’s acquisitions of Photop and HIGHYAG.

The gross unrecognized income tax benefits under FIN 48 at December 31, 2011, which are excluded from the table above is $3.7 million. The Company is not able to reasonably estimate the amount by which the liability will increase or decrease over time; however, at this time, the Company does not expect a significant payment related to these obligations within the next year.

 

Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Foreign Exchange Risks

The Company is exposed to market risks arising from adverse changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. In the normal course of business, the Company uses a variety of techniques and derivative financial instruments as part of its overall risk management strategy primarily focused on its exposure to the Japanese Yen. No significant changes have occurred in the techniques and instruments used other than those described below.

Table of Contents

Changes in the foreign currency exchange rates of these currencies had a favorable impact on the results of operations for the three and six months ended December 31, 2011 by an after-tax gain of approximately $0.5 million and $0.7 million, respectively, or $0.01 per-share diluted. Changes in the foreign currency exchange rates of these currencies had an unfavorable impact on the results of operations for the three months ended December 31, 2010 by an after-tax loss of approximately $0.8 million, or $0.01 per-share diluted. Changes in the foreign currency exchange rates of these currencies on the results of operations for the six months ended December 31, 2010 were insignificant.

In the normal course of business, the Company enters into foreign currency forward exchange contracts with its banks. The purpose of these contracts is to hedge ordinary business risks regarding foreign currencies on product sales. Foreign currency exchange contracts are used to limit transactional exposure to changes in currency exchange rates. The Company enters into foreign currency forward contracts that permit it to sell specified amounts of foreign currencies expected to be received from its export sales for pre-established U.S. dollar amounts at specified dates. The forward contracts are denominated in the same foreign currencies in which export sales are denominated. These contracts provide the Company with an economic hedge in which settlement will occur in future periods and which otherwise would expose the Company to foreign currency risk. The Company monitors its positions and the credit ratings of the parties to these contracts. While the Company may be exposed to potential losses due to risk in the event of non-performance by the counterparties to these financial instruments, it does not anticipate such losses. The Company currently has a 300 million Yen loan to help minimize the foreign currency exposure in Japan. A change in the interest rate of 1% for this Yen loan would have changed the interest expense by an immaterial amount for the three and six months ended December 31, 2011. A 10% change in the Yen to dollar exchange rate would have changed revenues in the range from a decrease of $0.3 million to an increase of $1.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2011. A 10% change in the Yen to dollar exchange rate would have changed revenues in the range from a decrease of $1.7 million to an increase of $2.1 million for the six months ended December 31, 2011.

For II-VI Singapore Pte., Ltd. and its subsidiaries, II-VI Suisse S.a.r.l., PRM and AOFR Pty. Ltd., the functional currency is the U.S. dollar. Gains and losses on the remeasurement of the local currency financial statements are included in net earnings. Foreign currency remeasurement gains were $0.1 million and $0.5 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended December 31, 2011. Foreign currency remeasurement gains were $0.2 million and $0.1 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended December 31, 2010.

For all other foreign subsidiaries, the functional currency is the local currency. Assets and liabilities of those operations are translated into U.S. dollars using period-end exchange rates while income and expenses are translated using the average exchange rates for the reporting period. Translation adjustments are recorded as accumulated other comprehensive income within shareholders’ equity.

Interest Rate Risks

As of December 31, 2011, the total borrowings of $20.9 million were from a loan of $3.9 million denominated in Japanese Yen and a line of credit borrowing of $17.0 million denominated in U.S. dollars. As such, the Company is exposed to market risks arising from changes in interest rates. A change in the interest rate of these borrowings of 1% would have had an immaterial impact on the Company’s financial results for the three and six months ended December 31, 2011.

 

Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The Company’s management evaluated, with the participation of Francis J. Kramer, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, and Craig A. Creaturo, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer, the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. The Company’s disclosure controls were designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission. It should be noted that the design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote. However, the controls have been designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving the controls’ stated goals. Based on that evaluation, Messrs. Kramer and Creaturo concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective at the reasonable assurance level as of the end of the period covered by this report. No changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting were implemented during the Company’s most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1A. RISK FACTORS

In addition to the risk factors and other information set forth in this report, carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2011, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. The updated risk factor described below and those included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K are not the only risks facing the Company. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.

Natural Disasters or Other Global or Regional Catastrophic Events Could Disrupt Our Operations and Adversely Affect Results

Despite our concerted effort to minimize risk to our production capabilities and corporate information systems and to reduce the effect of unforeseen interruptions to us through business continuity planning, we still may be exposed to interruptions due to catastrophe, natural disaster, pandemic, terrorism or acts of war, which are beyond our control such as the March 2011 earthquake in Japan or the October 2011 flooding in Thailand. Disruptions to our facilities or systems, or to those of our key suppliers, could also interrupt operational processes and adversely impact our ability to manufacture our products and provide services and support to our customers. As a result, our business, results of operations or financial condition could be materially adversely affected.
