NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, and U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or U.S. GAAP. However, certain information or footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such SEC rules and regulations. In our opinion, the financial statements include all adjustments, which are of a normal and recurring nature, necessary for the fair presentation of the results of the interim periods presented. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full fiscal year or any future period. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013.

The consolidated financial statements include our financial statements and those of our wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.

Our fiscal year is the 52- or 53-week period ending on the last Saturday in June. Our fiscal 2014 and 2013 are 52-week periods ending on June 28, 2014 and June 29, 2013, respectively. The quarterly fiscal periods presented in this report were 13-week periods for the three months ended September 28, 2013 and September 29, 2012. For ease of presentation, the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been shown as ending on calendar quarter end dates for all annual, interim, and quarterly financial statement captions, unless otherwise indicated.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to revenue recognition, allowance for doubtful accounts, cost of revenue, inventories, loss on purchase commitments, product warranty, share-based compensation costs, provision for income taxes, deferred income tax asset valuation allowances, uncertain tax positions, tax contingencies, goodwill, intangible assets, investments, contingent consideration liability, and loss contingencies. We base our estimates on historical experience, applicable laws and regulations, and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

There are no new accounting pronouncements that are expected to have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

2. Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue from product sales when there is persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred and title has transferred, the price is fixed or determinable, and collection is reasonably assured, which is generally upon shipment of the product. We accrue for estimated sales returns, incentives, and other allowances at the time we recognize revenue. Our products contain embedded firmware and software that allows for further differentiation and customer integration, which together with our ASIC chip, delivers the essential functionality of our products and, as such, software revenue recognition guidance is not applicable.

3. Net Income Per Share

The computation of basic and diluted net income per share was as follows (in thousands, except per share data):


	Three Months Ended
	September 30,
	2013		2012
Numerator:
Net income	$	34,939	$	6,053

Denominator:
Shares, basic		32,958		32,941
Effect of dilutive share-based awards		2,062		1,073

Shares, diluted		35,020		34,014

Net income per share:
Basic	$	1.06	$	0.18

Diluted	$	1.00	$	0.18

Our basic net income per share amounts for each period presented have been computed using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Our diluted net income per share amounts for each period presented include the weighted average effect of potentially dilutive shares. We use the “treasury stock” method to determine the dilutive effect of our stock options, deferred stock units, or DSUs, market stock units, or MSUs, and convertible notes.

Dilutive net income per share amounts do not include the weighted average effect of 503,115 and 3,990,394 share-based awards that were outstanding during the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. These share-based awards were not included in the computation of diluted net income per share because their effect would have been antidilutive.

4. Fair Value

Financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, by level within the fair value hierarchy consisted of the following (in thousands):


	September 30,				June 30,
	2013				2013
	Level 1		Level 3		Level 1		Level 3
Assets:
Money market	$	326,066	$	—	$	350,521	$	—
Auction rate securities		—		17,536		—		16,969

Total available-for-sale securities	$	326,066	$	17,536	$	350,521	$	16,969

Liabilities:
Contingent consideration liability recorded for business combination	$	—	$	8,505	$	—	$	8,247

In our condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2013 and June 30, 2013, money market balances are included in cash and cash equivalents; auction rate securities, or ARS investments, are included in non-current investments. The contingent consideration liability recorded for a business combination is included in other liabilities; of which $8.3 million and $8.1 million is included in the non-current portion of other liabilities as of September 30, 2013 and June 30, 2013, respectively, and $196,000 has been included in other current liabilities as of both periods.

Changes in fair value of our Level 3 financial assets as of September 30, 2013 were as follows (in thousands):


Balance as of June 30, 2013	$	16,969
Net unrealized gain		567

Balance as of September 30, 2013	$	17,536

Changes in fair value of our Level 3 contingent consideration liability as of September 30, 2013 were as follows (in thousands):


Balance as of June 30, 2013	$	8,247
Accretion and remeasurement		258

Balance as of September 30, 2013	$	8,505

In connection with the acquisition of Pacinian in June 2012, we entered into a contingent consideration arrangement, and subsequently paid $5.0 million of additional consideration to the former Pacinian stockholders upon customer acceptance of a ThinTouch product. As of September 30, 2013, we may owe up to $10.0 million of additional consideration to the former Pacinian stockholders based on sales of products utilizing ThinTouch technology through June 2016.

There were no transfers in or out of our Level 1 or 3 assets or liabilities during the three months ended September 30, 2013.

The fair values of our accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate their carrying values because of the short-term nature of those instruments. The fair value of our notes payable approximates their carrying value in all material respects. Intangible assets, property and equipment, and goodwill are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis if impairment is indicated.

5. Auction Rate Securities

Our ARS investments have failed to settle in auctions and are not liquid. In the event we need to access these funds prior to their maturity, we will not be able to do so without a loss of principal, unless redeemed by the issuers or a future auction on these investments is successful. During the three months ended September 30, 2013, none of our ARS investments were redeemed.

As there are currently no active markets for our various failed ARS investments, we have estimated the fair value as of September 30, 2013 using a trinomial discounted cash flow analysis. The analysis considered, among others, the following factors:

•

the collateral underlying the security investments;

•

the creditworthiness of the counterparty;

•

the timing of expected future cash flows;

•

the probability of a successful auction in a future period;

•

the underlying structure of each investment;

•

the present value of future principal and interest payments discounted at rates considered to reflect current market conditions;

•

a consideration of the probabilities of default, passing a future auction, or redemption at par for each period; and

•

estimates of the recovery rates in the event of default for each investment.

When possible, our failed ARS investments were compared to other observable market data or securities with similar characteristics. Our estimate of the fair value of our ARS investments could change materially from period to period based on future market conditions.

Contractual maturities for our ARS investments are generally greater than five years, with fair value of $12.4 million maturing from calendar years 2015 to 2017, $3.1 million maturing from calendar years 2043 to 2045, and $2.0 million having no maturity date. Of our ARS investments, $5.5 million par value are investment grade, and the remaining $18.5 million par value are below investment grade.

The various types of ARS investments we held as of September 30, 2013, including the original cost basis, other-than-temporary impairment included in retained earnings, new cost basis, unrealized gain/(loss), and fair value, consisted of the following (in thousands):


			Other-than-
			temporary
	Original Cost		Impairment in			New Cost		Unrealized			Fair
	Basis		Retained Earnings			Basis		Gain/(Loss)			Value
Student loans	$	3,500	$	(179	)	$	3,321	$	(172	)	$	3,149
Credit linked notes		13,500		(8,352	)(1)		5,148		5,318			10,466
Preferred stock		5,000		(5,000	)		—		2,000			2,000
Municipals		2,000		(83	)		1,917		4			1,921

Total ARS	$	24,000	$	(13,614	)	$	10,386	$	7,150		$	17,536

(1)	Other-than-temporary impairment in retained earnings is partially offset by cumulative accretion of $415,000 on non-current investments. Accretion is reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income and recorded in the condensed consolidated statements of income as non-cash interest income.

The various types of ARS investments we held as of June 30, 2013, including the original cost basis, other-than-temporary impairment included in retained earnings, new cost basis, unrealized gain/(loss), and fair value, consisted of the following (in thousands):


			Other-than-
			temporary
	Original Cost		Impairment in			New Cost		Unrealized			Fair
	Basis		Retained Earnings			Basis		Gain/(Loss)			Value
Student loans	$	3,500	$	(179	)	$	3,321	$	(168	)	$	3,153
Credit linked notes		13,500		(8,571	)(1)		4,929		4,980			9,909
Preferred stock		5,000		(5,000	)		—		2,000			2,000
Municipals		2,000		(83	)		1,917		(10	)		1,907

Total ARS	$	24,000	$	(13,833	)	$	10,167	$	6,802		$	16,969

(1)	Other-than-temporary impairment in retained earnings is partially offset by cumulative accretion of $196,000 on non-current investments. Accretion is reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income and recorded in the condensed consolidated statements of income as non-cash interest income.

The ARS investments in each of the above tables with unrealized losses have been in a continuous unrealized loss position for more than 12 months.

We have accounted for all of our ARS investments as non-current as we are not able to reasonably determine when the ARS markets will recover or be restructured. Based on our ability to access our cash and cash equivalents, our expected operating cash flows, and our other sources of cash, we do not intend to sell the investments, and it is not more likely than not that we will be required to sell the investments before the recovery of the amortized cost basis. We will continue to monitor our ARS investments and evaluate our accounting for these investments quarterly.

6. Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market (estimated net realizable value) and consisted of the following (in thousands):


	September 30,		June 30,
	2013		2013
Raw materials	$	46,868	$	38,181
Finished goods		10,425		11,767

	$	57,293	$	49,948

7. Other Accrued Liabilities

Other accrued liabilities consisted of the following (in thousands):


	September 30, 2013		June 30, 2013
Customer obligations	$	16,910	$	16,291
Inventory obligations		6,463		6,333
Warranty		1,514		1,696
Other		9,221		7,117

	$	34,108	$	31,437

8. Product Warranties, Indemnifications, and Contingencies

Product Warranties

We generally warrant our products for a period of 12 months from the date of sale and estimate probable product warranty costs at the time we recognize revenue. Factors that affect our warranty liability include historical and anticipated rates of warranty claims, materials usage, rework, and delivery costs. However, we assess the adequacy of our warranty obligations each reporting period and adjust the accrued warranty liability on the basis of our estimates.

Indemnifications

In connection with certain third-party agreements we have executed in the past, we are obligated to indemnify the third party in connection with any technology infringement by us. We have also entered into indemnification agreements with our officers and directors. Maximum potential future payments cannot be estimated because these agreements do not have a maximum stated liability. However, historical costs related to these indemnification provisions have not been significant. We have not recorded any liability in our consolidated financial statements for such indemnification obligations.

Contingencies

We have in the past and may in the future receive notices from third parties that claim our products infringe their intellectual property rights. We cannot be certain that our technologies and products do not or will not infringe issued patents or other proprietary rights of third parties.

Any infringement claims, with or without merit, could result in significant litigation costs and diversion of management and financial resources, including the payment of damages, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

9. Share-Based Compensation

Share-based compensation and the related tax benefit recognized in our condensed consolidated statements of income were as follows (in thousands):


	Three Months Ended September 30,
	2013		2012
Cost of revenue	$	254	$	243
Research and development		3,927		3,911
Selling, general, and administrative		2,861		4,313

Total	$	7,042	$	8,467

Income tax benefit on share-based compensation	$	1,972	$	2,218

Historically, we have issued new shares in connection with our share-based compensation plans; however, treasury shares were also available for issuance as of September 30, 2013, including shares repurchased under our common stock repurchase program.

Stock Options

Stock option activity, including stock options granted, exercised, and forfeited, and weighted average exercise prices for options outstanding and exercisable, and the aggregate intrinsic value were as follows:


	Stock Option Awards Outstanding			Weighted Average Exercise Price		Aggregate Intrinsic Value (in thousands)
Balance at June 30, 2013		6,030,287		$	26.15
Granted		124,535			39.80
Exercised		(337,079	)		22.88
Forfeited		(27,327	)		30.90

Balance at September 30, 2013		5,790,416			26.61	$	97,903

Exercisable at September 30, 2013		4,431,991		$	25.49	$	79,895

The aggregate intrinsic value was determined using the closing price of our common stock on September 27, 2013 of $43.52, and excludes the impact of stock options that were not in-the-money.

Deferred Stock Units

DSU activity, including DSUs granted, delivered, and forfeited, and the balance and aggregate intrinsic value of DSUs were as follows:


	DSU Awards Outstanding			Aggregate Intrinsic Value (in thousands)
Balance at June 30, 2013		1,005,435
Granted		62,943
Delivered		(125,765	)
Forfeited		(26,734	)

Balance at September 30, 2013		915,879		$	39,859

The aggregate intrinsic value was determined using the closing price of our common stock on September 27, 2013 of $43.52.

Of the shares delivered, 42,094 shares valued at $1.7 million were withheld to meet statutory minimum tax withholding requirements.

Market Stock Units

Our Amended and Restated 2010 Incentive Compensation Plan provides for the grant of MSU awards, which are a type of DSU award, to our employees, consultants, and directors. An MSU is a promise to deliver shares of our common stock at a future date based on the achievement of market-based performance requirements in accordance with the terms of the MSU grant agreement. We began granting MSUs in November 2012.

In November 2012, we granted MSUs to our executive officers, which were designed to vest in three tranches with the target quantity for each tranche equal to one-third of the total MSU grant. The first tranche vests based on a one-year performance period; the second tranche vests based on a two-year performance period; and the third tranche vests based on a three-year performance period. Performance is measured based on the achievement of a specified level of total stockholder return, or TSR, relative to the TSR of the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index, or SOX Index. The potential payout ranges from 0% to 200% of the grant target quantity and is adjusted on a two-to-one ratio based on our TSR performance relative to the SOX Index TSR performance using the following formula:

(100% + ([Synaptics TSR - SOX Index TSR] x 2))

Delivery of shares earned, if any, will take place on the dates provided in the applicable MSU grant agreement, assuming the grantee is still an employee, consultant, or director of our company at the end of the applicable performance period. On the delivery date, we withhold shares to cover statutory minimum tax withholding by delivering a net quantity of shares. Until delivery of shares, the grantee has no rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares underlying the MSU award.

During the three months ended September 30, 2013, there were no MSUs granted and there were no shares under our MSU awards delivered or forfeited. We valued the MSUs using the Monte Carlo simulation model and amortize the compensation expense over the three-year performance and service period. The weighted average grant date fair value for the MSUs granted was $25.82. The unrecognized share-based compensation cost for MSUs granted was approximately $1.3 million as of September 30, 2013, which will be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 1.0 years. As of September 30, 2013, the aggregate intrinsic value of the MSUs was $2.9 million (assuming a 100% payout factor), which was determined using the closing price of our common stock on September 27, 2013 of $43.52.

10. Income Taxes

We account for income taxes under the asset and liability method. We consider the operating earnings of our foreign subsidiaries to be indefinitely invested outside the United States. Accordingly, no provision has been made for the federal, state, or foreign taxes that may result from future remittances of undistributed earnings of our foreign subsidiaries.

The provision for income taxes of $12.7 million and $2.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, represented estimated federal, foreign, and state income taxes. The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2013 was 26.6% and diverged from the combined federal and state statutory rate primarily because of foreign income taxed at lower tax rates and the federal research credit, partially offset by foreign withholding taxes, and net unrecognized tax benefits associated with qualified stock options. The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2012 was 29.2% and diverged from the combined federal and state statutory rate primarily because of foreign income taxed at lower tax rates, partially offset by foreign withholding taxes, net unrecognized tax benefit associated with qualified stock options, and a slight increase in the liability for unrecognized tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions.

Unrecognized Tax Benefits

The total liability for gross unrecognized tax benefits increased $146,000 during the three months ended September 30, 2013 to $8.4 million from $8.2 million at June 30, 2013 and is included in other liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. All of this amount would affect the effective tax rate on income from continuing operations, if recognized. The balance of interest and penalties accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits as of September 30, 2013 was $918,000 and increased by $5,000 from June 30, 2013. We classify interest and penalties as components of income tax expense.

In May 2011, we were notified by the Internal Revenue Service (Service) that our fiscal 2003 through 2006 and fiscal 2008 through 2010 would be subject to examination. The early periods were being audited in connection with a mandatory review of tax refunds in excess of $2.0 million when we carried back our fiscal 2008 net operating loss. In March 2013, we received the Revenue Agent’s Report resolving our examination with the Service and paid an assessment that had no material impact to our condensed consolidated financial statements. Our case is pending review by the Joint Committee of Taxation, which we anticipate to conclude in our fiscal 2014. Any prospective adjustments to our unrecognized tax benefits will be recorded as an increase or decrease to income tax expense and cause a corresponding change to our effective tax rate. Accordingly, our effective tax rate could fluctuate materially from period to period.

On January 2, 2013, President Barack Obama signed into law The American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2013 (The Act). The Act extends the research credit for two years retroactively from January 1, 2012 through December 31, 2013. As such, we will only recognize six months of tax benefit in our current fiscal year.

Our major tax jurisdictions are the United States, California, and Hong Kong SAR, and fiscal 2003 onward remain subject to examination by one or more of these jurisdictions.

11. Segment, Customers, and Geographic Information

We operate in one segment: the development, marketing, and sale of interactive user interface solutions for electronic devices and products. We generate our revenue from two broad product categories: the mobile product market and the personal computing, or PC, market. The mobile product market accounted for 73% and 51% of net revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

12. Comprehensive Income

Our comprehensive income generally consists of net income plus the effect of unrealized gains and losses on our investments, primarily due to temporary changes in market value of certain of our ARS investments. In addition, we recognize the noncredit portion of other-than-temporary impairment on debt securities in other comprehensive income. We recognize foreign currency remeasurement adjustments and transaction gains and losses in our condensed consolidated statements of income as the U.S. dollar is the functional currency of our foreign entities.

13. Purchased Intangibles

14. Subsequent Event

On October 9, 2013, we signed a definitive agreement to acquire a privately held company, Validity Sensors, Inc., or Validity, a leading provider of biometric fingerprint authentication solutions for smartphones, tablets, and notebooks. The transaction has been approved by our board of directors and Validity’s board of directors and is subject to customary closing conditions. There are no financing contingencies related to the acquisition. The transaction is expected to close in the second quarter of fiscal 2014. With this acquisition we expect to gain access to the fast growing biometrics market, significantly expanding our market opportunity and underscoring our commitment to making smart devices easier to use. The acquisition is expected to be completed by acquiring all capital stock and other vested and unvested equity interests of Validity for an aggregate base purchase price of $92.5 million. In addition, we may become obligated to make earn-out consideration payments of up to an additional $162.5 million, which is based primarily on sales, during certain time periods, ending on March 31, 2016, of certain products embodying Validity fingerprint sensor technology. The earn-out consideration will generally be payable in cash, but there are certain conditions that require payout of a portion of the earn-out consideration, if any, in our common stock. Pursuant to the merger agreement we expect to create a merger sub wholly owned by us that will be merged with and into Validity, with Validity surviving as our wholly owned subsidiary, and as part of the same overall transaction, Validity will then merge with and into another merger sub wholly owned by us, with such other merger sub surviving such merger as our wholly owned subsidiary. Pursuant to the Merger, the Company incurred approximately $1.0 million in direct acquisition costs during the September quarter which were expensed as incurred.

The acquisition will be accounted for using the purchase method of accounting in accordance with the business acquisition guidance. Under the purchase accounting method, the total estimated purchase consideration of the acquisition will be allocated to the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their relative fair values. The excess of the purchase consideration over the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities will be recorded as goodwill.

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

Forward-Looking Statements and Factors That May Affect Results

You should read the following discussion and analysis in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and with our audited consolidated financial statements and notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013.

In addition to the historical information contained in this report, this report may contain forward-looking statements, including those related to our operating model and strategies; our market penetration and market share in the mobile product applications and PC product applications markets; competitive factors in the mobile product applications and PC product applications markets; revenue from the mobile product applications and PC product applications markets; industry estimates of growth rates of these markets; average selling prices; product design mix; manufacturing costs; gross margins; new product solution introductions; customer relationships; research and development expenses; selling, general, and administrative expenses; liquidity and anticipated cash requirements; our ability to provide local sales, operational, and engineering support to customers; our assessment of the combination of the added value we bring to our OEM customers’ products in meeting their custom design requirements and the impact of our ongoing cost-improvement programs; our expectations regarding the timing of the conclusion of an ongoing appeal of a tax audit; and our expectations regarding tax benefits for the federal research credit. These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially.

This report should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013, including particularly Item 1A—Risk Factors therein.

Overview

We are a leading worldwide developer and supplier of custom-designed human interface solutions that enable people to interact more easily and intuitively with a wide variety of mobile computing, communications, entertainment, and other electronic devices. We believe our results to date reflect the combination of our customer focus, the strength of our intellectual property, and our engineering know-how, which allow us to develop or engineer products that meet the demanding design specifications of OEMs.

Many of our customers have manufacturing operations in China, and many of our OEM customers have established design centers in that region. With our expanded global presence, including offices in China, Finland, Hong Kong, Japan, Korea, Switzerland, Taiwan, and the United States, we are well positioned to provide local sales, operational, and engineering support services to our existing customers, as well as potential new customers, on a global basis.

Our manufacturing operations are based on a variable cost model in which we outsource all of our production requirements and generally drop ship our products directly to our customers from our contract manufacturers’ facilities, reducing the need for significant capital expenditures and allowing us to minimize our investment in inventories. This approach requires us to work closely with our contract manufacturers and semiconductor foundries to ensure adequate production capacity to meet our forecasted volume requirements. We provide our contract manufacturers with six-month rolling forecasts and issue purchase orders based on our anticipated requirements for the next 90 days. However, we do not have any long-term supply contracts with any of our contract manufacturers. We use three third-party semiconductor wafer manufacturers to supply us with silicon wafers integrating our proprietary design specifications. The completed silicon wafers are forwarded to third-party package and test processors for further processing into die and packaged ASICs, as applicable, which are then utilized in our custom interface products or processed as our ASIC-based solutions. In certain cases, we rely on a single source or a limited number of suppliers to provide other key components of our products. Our cost of revenue includes all costs associated with the production of our products, including materials, logistics, manufacturing, assembly, and test costs paid to third-party manufacturers and related overhead costs associated with our indirect manufacturing operations personnel. Additionally, we charge losses on inventory purchase obligations and write-downs to reduce the carrying value of obsolete, slow moving, and non-usable inventory to net realizable value (including warranty costs) to cost of revenue.

Our gross margin generally reflects the combination of the added value we bring to our OEM customers’ products in meeting their custom design requirements and the impact of our ongoing cost-improvement programs. These cost-improvement programs include reducing materials and component costs and implementing design and process improvements.

Our research and development expenses include costs for supplies and materials related to product development as well as the engineering costs incurred to design ASICs and human interface solutions for OEM customers prior to and after their commitment to incorporate those solutions into their products. These expenses have generally increased, reflecting our continuing commitment to the technological and design innovation required to maintain our position in our existing markets and to adapt our existing technologies or develop new technologies for new markets.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses include expenses related to sales, marketing, and administrative personnel; internal sales and outside sales representatives’ commissions; market and usability research; outside legal, accounting, and consulting costs; and other marketing and sales activities. These expenses have generally increased, primarily reflecting incremental staffing and related support costs associated with our business acquisitions, increased business levels, growth in our existing markets, and penetration into new markets.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting policies and estimates during the three months ended September 30, 2013 compared with our critical accounting policies and estimates disclosed in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013.

Net Revenue.

Net revenue was $222.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2013 compared with $127.0 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2012, an increase of $95.6 million, or 75.2%. Of our first quarter fiscal 2013 net revenue, $162.7 million, or 73.1%, was from mobile product applications and $59.9 million, or 26.9%, was from PC product applications. The increase in net revenue for the quarter ended September 30, 2013 was attributable to an increase in net revenue from mobile product applications, partially offset by a decrease in PC product applications. Net revenue from mobile product applications increased primarily as a result of higher unit sales in the quarter, reflecting both the growing market and our market share. Net revenue from PC product applications decreased primarily as a result of the continued weakness in the PC market.

Based on industry estimates of unit shipments, the mobile smartphone market is anticipated to increase approximately 22%, the tablet market is anticipated to increase 66%, and the notebook market is anticipated to decrease approximately 10% in calendar year 2013 compared with calendar year 2012.

Gross Margin.

Gross margin as a percentage of net revenue was 49.1%, or $109.3 million, for the quarter ended September 30, 2013 compared with 47.7%, or $60.6 million, for the quarter ended September 30, 2012. The 140 basis point improvement in gross margin was primarily attributable to favorable mix of higher margin mobile product application revenue driven largely by the continued shift in our overall revenue mix to mobile product revenue consisting predominately of higher margin chip solutions.

We continuously introduce new product solutions, many of which have life cycles of less than a year. Further, as we sell our capacitive sensing technology in designs that are generally unique or specific to an OEM customer’s application, gross margin varies on a product-by-product basis, making our cumulative gross margin a blend of our product specific designs. As a virtual manufacturer, our gross margin percentage is generally not impacted materially by our shipment volume. We charge losses on inventory purchase obligations and write-downs to reduce the carrying value of obsolete, slow moving, and non-usable inventory to net realizable value (including warranty costs), to cost of revenue.

Operating Expenses.

Research and Development Expenses. Research and development expenses increased $7.6 million to $40.4 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2013 compared with the quarter ended September 30, 2012. The increase in research and development expenses primarily reflected a $3.9 million increase in employee-related costs, which included our annual merit increase, an increase in our incentive compensation accrual, additional headcount associated with an expanded product portfolio, and a $3.0 million increase in infrastructure-related costs.

Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general, and administrative expenses increased $2.2 million to $21.1 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2013 compared with the quarter ended September 30, 2012. The increase in selling, general, and administrative expenses primarily reflected a $1.5 million increase in employee-related costs, which included our annual merit increase, an increase in our incentive compensation accrual and additional headcount, and a $1.2 million increase in professional fees, primarily associated with acquisition related costs (see Note 14 for Subsequent Event).

Provision for Income Taxes.

The provision for income taxes of $12.7 million and $2.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, represented estimated federal, foreign, and state income taxes. The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2013 was 26.6% and diverged from the combined federal and state statutory rate primarily because of foreign income taxed at lower tax rates and the federal research credit, partially offset by foreign withholding taxes, and net unrecognized tax benefits associated with qualified stock options. The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2012 was 29.2% and diverged from the combined federal and state statutory rate primarily because of foreign income taxed at lower tax rates, partially offset by foreign withholding taxes, net unrecognized tax benefit associated with qualified stock options, and an increase to the liability for uncertain tax position.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our cash and cash equivalents were $331.6 million as of September 30, 2013 compared with $355.3 million as of June 30, 2013, a decrease of $23.7 million. The decrease primarily reflects the combination of $50.0 million used to repurchase 1,216,904 shares of our common stock and $10.0 million used for the purchase of property and equipment, partially offset by $28.9 million provided from operating cash flows and $7.7 million of proceeds from the issuance of shares. We consider earnings of our foreign subsidiaries indefinitely invested overseas and have made no provision for income or withholding taxes that may result from a future repatriation of those earnings. As of September 30, 2013, $291.4 million of cash and cash equivalents was held by our foreign subsidiaries. If these funds are needed for our operations in the United States, we would be required to accrue and pay U.S. federal, foreign, and state taxes to repatriate these funds.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities. Operating activities during the three months ended September 30, 2013 generated net cash of $28.9 million compared with $29.6 million of net cash generated during the three months ended September 30, 2012. For the three months ended September 30, 2013, net cash provided by operating activities was primarily attributable to net income of $34.9 million plus adjustments for non-cash charges of $10.8 million, and a $16.8 million net change in operating assets and liabilities. The net change in operating assets and liabilities was primarily attributable to an $8.7 million decrease in accrued compensation, a $7.3 million increase in inventories, and a $5.5 million increase in accounts receivable, partially offset by a $4.5 million decrease in income taxes. From June 30, 2013 to September 30, 2013, our days sales outstanding increased from 58 to 62 days and our inventory turns declined from 9 to 8.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities. Investing activities during the three months ended September 30, 2013 used net cash of $10.0 million for purchases of property and equipment compared with $19.1 million net cash used for purchases or property and equipment and business purchases during the three months ended September 30, 2012.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities. Net cash used in financing activities for the three months ended September 30, 2013 was $42.6 million compared with $2.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012. Net cash used in financing activities for the three months ended September 30, 2013 included $50.0 million used to repurchase 1,216,904 shares of our common stock, partially offset by proceeds from issuance of shares of our common stock under our employee equity programs of $7.7 million.

Common Stock Repurchase Program. Our Board of Directors has cumulatively authorized $620.0 million for our stock repurchase program, expiring in October 2015. The program authorizes us to purchase our common stock in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, depending upon market conditions and other factors. The number of shares purchased and the timing of purchases is based on the level of our cash balances, general business and market conditions, and other factors, including alternative investment opportunities. Common stock purchased under this program is held as treasury stock. From April 2005 through September 30, 2013, we purchased 18,600,836 shares of our common stock in the open market for an aggregate cost of $510.2 million. Treasury shares purchased prior to August 28, 2008 were not subject to the stock split on that date. As of September 30, 2013, we had $109.8 million remaining under our common stock repurchase program.

Bank Credit Facility. We maintain a $75.0 million working capital line of credit with Wells Fargo Bank. The Wells Fargo Bank revolving line of credit, which expires on September 1, 2014, provides for an interest rate equal to the prime lending rate or 150 basis points above LIBOR, depending on whether we choose a variable or fixed rate, respectively. We had not borrowed any amounts under the line of credit as of September 30, 2013.

$100 Million Shelf Registration. We have registered an aggregate of $100.0 million of common stock and preferred stock for issuance in connection with acquisitions, which shares generally will be freely tradable after their issuance under Rule 145 of the Securities Act unless held by an affiliate of the acquired company, in which case such shares will be subject to the volume and manner of sale restrictions of Rule 144.

Liquidity and Capital Resources. We believe our existing cash and cash equivalents and anticipated cash flows from operating activities will be sufficient to meet our working capital and other cash requirements for at least the next 12 months, including our obligations associated with the acquisition of Validity. Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including our revenue, the timing and extent of spending to support product development efforts, costs related to protecting our intellectual property, the expansion of sales and marketing activities, the timing of introductions of new products and enhancements to existing products, the costs to ensure access to adequate manufacturing capacity, the costs of maintaining sufficient space or renovating recently acquired building space for our expanding workforce, the continuing market acceptance of our product solutions, our common stock repurchase program, and the amount and timing of our investments in, or acquisitions of, other technologies or companies. Further equity or debt financing may not be available to us on acceptable terms or at all. If sufficient funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, our ability to take advantage of business opportunities or to respond to competitive pressures could be limited or severely constrained.

Our non-current investments consist of ARS investments, which have failed to settle in auctions. These investments are not liquid, and in the event we need to access these funds, we will not be able to do so without a loss of principal, unless redeemed by the issuers or a future auction on these investments is successful.

Based on our ability to access our cash and cash equivalents, our expected operating cash flows, and our other sources of cash, we do not anticipate the lack of liquidity on these investments will affect our ability to operate our business as usual. Further, we do not anticipate the need to repatriate any undistributed earnings of our foreign subsidiaries to meet our working capital and other cash requirements.

Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments

Our material contractual obligations and commercial commitments as of September 30, 2013 were as follows (in millions):

In connection with the acquisition of Pacinian in June 2012, we entered into a contingent consideration arrangement. As of September 30, 2013, we owe up to $10.0 million of additional consideration to the former Pacinian stockholders based on sales of products utilizing ThinTouch technology through June 2016. The estimated fair value of the contingent consideration liability as of September 30, 2013 was $8.3 million.

The amounts in the table above exclude unrecognized tax benefits of $8.4 million. As of September 30, 2013, we were unable to make a reasonably reliable estimate of when cash settlement with a taxing authority may occur in connection with our gross unrecognized tax benefit.

The amounts in the table above exclude the impact of the acquisition of Validity. See Note 14 for Subsequent Event.
