NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Note 1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Symantec Corporation (“Symantec,” “we,” “us,” “our,” and “the Company” refer to Symantec Corporation and all of its subsidiaries) as of June 28, 2013 and March 29, 2013, and for the three months ended June 28, 2013 and June 29, 2012, have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions on Form 10-Q pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In accordance with those rules and regulations, we have omitted certain information and notes normally provided in our annual consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring items, except as otherwise noted, necessary for the fair presentation of our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the interim periods. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 29, 2013. The results of operations for the three months ended June 28, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the entire fiscal year.

Segment reporting change

We modified our segment reporting structure to match our new operating structure and how our Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) views the business and allocates resources, beginning from the first quarter of fiscal 2014. The CODM function is comprised of our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operating Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and President, Products & Services. Reclassifications of prior period financial information have been made to conform to the current period presentation. This change does not impact previously reported condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company. See Note 9 for additional information on our segment reporting change.

Significant Accounting Policies

Contingencies

We evaluate contingent liabilities including threatened or pending litigation and government investigations in accordance with the authoritative guidance on contingencies. We assess the likelihood of any adverse judgments or outcomes from potential claims or proceedings, as well as potential ranges of probable losses, when the outcomes of the claims or proceedings are probable and reasonably estimable. A determination of the amount of accrued liabilities required, if any, for these contingencies is made after the analysis of each separate matter. Because of uncertainties related to these matters, we base our estimates on the information available at the time of our assessment. As additional information becomes available, we reassess the potential liability related to our pending claims, litigation and government investigations, and may revise our estimates. Any revisions in the estimates of potential liabilities could have a material impact on our operating results and financial position.

Change in Accounting Policy for Sales Commissions

Effective March 30, 2013, we changed our accounting policy for sales commissions that are incremental and directly related to customer sales contracts in which revenue is deferred. These commission costs are accrued and capitalized upon execution of a non-cancelable customer contract, and subsequently expensed over the term of such contract in proportion to the related future revenue streams. For commission costs where revenue is recognized, the related commission costs are recorded in the period of revenue recognition. Prior to this change in accounting policy, commission costs were expensed in the period in which they were incurred. The adoption of this accounting policy change has been applied retrospectively to all periods presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, in which the cumulative effect of the change has been reflected as of the beginning of the first period presented. Deferred

commissions as of June 28, 2013 and March 29, 2013 were $164 million and $159 million, respectively. During the three months ended June 28, 2013, we capitalized $54 million of commission costs and amortized $49 million to sales expense. During the three months ended June 29, 2012, we deferred $31 million of commission costs and amortized $53 million to sales expense.

We believe this change in accounting policy is preferable as the direct and incremental commission costs are closely related to the revenue, and therefore they should be recorded as an asset and recognized as an expense over the same period that the related revenue is recognized.

The cumulative effect of the change on accumulated deficit and accumulated other comprehensive income was $109 million and $3 million, respectively, as of March 31, 2012. The following tables present the changes to financial statement line items as a result of the accounting change for the periods presented in the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements:

The change in accounting policy does not affect our balance of Cash and cash equivalents and as a result did not change net cash flows from operating, investing, or financing activities in our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the three months ended June 29, 2012.

There have been no material changes in our significant accounting policies for the three months ended June 28, 2013, as compared to the significant accounting policies described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 29, 2013, other than as discussed above.

Note 2. Fair Value Measurements

For assets and liabilities measured at fair value, such amounts are based on an expected exit price representing the amount that would be received on the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability, as the case may be, in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value may be based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. The authoritative guidance on fair value measurements establishes a consistent framework for measuring fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis whereby inputs, used in valuation techniques, are assigned a hierarchical level. The following are the hierarchical levels of inputs to measure fair value:

•

Level 1: Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

•

Level 2: Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities; or inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

•

Level 3: Unobservable inputs reflecting our own assumptions incorporated in valuation techniques used to determine fair value. These assumptions are required to be consistent with market participant assumptions that are reasonably available.

Assets measured and recorded at fair value on a recurring basis

There have been no transfers between fair value measurement levels during the three months ended June 28, 2013. The following table summarizes our assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis, by level, within the fair value hierarchy:


	As of June 28, 2013						As of March 29, 2013
	Level 1		Level 2		Total		Level 1		Level 2		Total
	(In millions)
Cash equivalents ⁽¹⁾	$	2,469	$	—	$	2,469	$	3,469	$	—	$	3,469
Marketable equity securities		34		—		34		62		—		62

⁽¹⁾	Cash equivalents consist of investments with remaining maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase, or money market funds for which the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Note 3. Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill

The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill were as follows:


	User Productivity & Protection			Information Security		Information Management		Total
	(In millions)
Net balance as of March 29, 2013	$	1,649		$	1,486	$	2,706	$	5,841
Adjustments ⁽¹⁾		(1	)		1		—		—

Net balance as of June 28, 2013	$	1,648		$	1,487	$	2,706	$	5,841

⁽¹⁾	Adjustments made to goodwill reflect foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations.

Effective in the first quarter of fiscal 2014, we evaluated our segment reporting structure and modified the reporting to match our new operating structure. Our reporting units for goodwill are the same as our reportable operating segments, and the net goodwill balance has been allocated to the reporting units based on their relative fair value. See Note 9 for information regarding the changes related to segment information.

As a result of the change in our segments, we assessed goodwill for impairment immediately prior to the changes to the new reporting units and determined that the estimated fair value of our reporting units exceeded their respective carrying amount including goodwill. Based on the results of our impairment analysis, we do not believe that an impairment existed as of the date of the change in our segments.

During the three months ended June 28, 2013, we paid a cash dividend of $0.15 per share of common stock for a total of $105 million, which was recorded as a reduction to Additional paid-in capital. In addition, our board of directors approved dividend equivalent rights entitling holders of restricted stock and performance-based stock to dividend equivalents to be paid in the form of cash upon vesting, for each share of the underlying units. No dividends and dividend equivalents were paid in any periods prior to fiscal 2014. Any future dividends and dividend equivalents will be subject to the approval of our board of directors.

Note 5. Debt

In the first quarter of fiscal 2007, we issued $1.0 billion in principal amount of 1.00% Convertible Senior Notes (“1.00% notes”), due in June 2013. On June 15, 2013, the principal balance on those notes matured and was settled by a cash payment of $1.0 billion, along with the $5 million semi-annual interest payment. In addition, we elected to pay the conversion value above par value in cash in the amount of $189 million. Concurrently with the payment of the conversion value, we received $189 million from our note hedge, which we had entered into at the time of the issuance of the 1.00% notes.

At the time of issuance of the 1.00% notes, we granted warrants to affiliates of certain initial purchasers of the notes whereby they have the option to purchase up to 52 million shares of our common stock at a price of $27.3175 per share. As a result of the dividend declaration by our board of directors in May 2013, the strike price for the warrants was reduced to $27.1330 per share, with the number of underlying shares increased to 52.7 million of our common stock. The warrants expire on various dates through August 30, 2013 and must be settled in net shares on any date which the price per share equals or exceeds $27.1330.

Effect of warrant conversion on earnings per share (“EPS”). If the daily volume weighted average trading price of our common stock exceeds $27.1330 per share, a dilutive effect related to the warrants exists under the treasury stock method. The dilutive effect would total approximately 1.9 million shares assuming that the Company’s daily volume weighted average price is $1.00 above the $27.1330 per share price from July 8, 2013 up to the warrant expiration date ending August 30, 2013.

Note 6. Restructuring and Transition

Our restructuring and transition costs and liabilities consist primarily of severance, facilities costs, and transition and other related costs. Severance generally includes severance payments, outplacement services, health insurance coverage, and legal costs. Facilities costs generally include rent expense and lease termination costs, less estimated sublease income. Transition and other related costs primarily consist of severance costs associated with acquisition integrations in efforts to streamline our business operations, and costs associated with the planning and design phases of a new enterprise resource planning system. Restructuring and transition costs are managed at the corporate level and are not allocated to our reportable segments. See Note 9 for information regarding the reconciliation of total segment operating income to total consolidated operating income.

Restructuring plan

In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013, we announced our strategy to develop innovative products and services, change our go-to-market plans and simplify our organizational structure. We initiated a restructuring plan in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013 to reduce management and redundant personnel resulting in headcount reductions across the Company. These actions are expected to be completed in fiscal 2014. As of June 28, 2013, total cost incurred to date is $74 million, primarily related to severance and related employee benefits. Including costs previously incurred in fiscal 2013, we expect our total costs for severance and benefits to be between $220 million and $250 million.

Other exit and disposal costs

Our other exit and disposal costs consist primarily of costs associated with closing or consolidating certain facilities. Largely as a result of business acquisitions, management may deem certain leased facilities to be in excess and plan to exit them either at the time of acquisition or after the acquisition in conjunction with our efforts to integrate and streamline our operations. As of June 28, 2013, liabilities for these excess facility obligations at several locations around the world are expected to be paid over the respective lease terms, the longest of which extends through fiscal 2018.

Note 7. Commitments and Contingencies

Indemnification

In the ordinary course of business, we may provide indemnifications of varying scope and terms to customers, vendors, lessors, business partners, subsidiaries and other parties with respect to certain matters, including, but not limited to, losses arising out of our breach of agreements or representations and warranties made by us. In addition, our bylaws contain indemnification obligations to our directors, officers, employees and agents, and we have entered into indemnification agreements with our directors and certain of our officers to give such directors and officers additional contractual assurances regarding the scope of the indemnification set forth in our bylaws and to provide additional procedural protections. We maintain director and officer insurance, which may cover certain liabilities arising from our obligation to indemnify our directors and officers. It is not possible to determine the aggregate maximum potential loss under these indemnification agreements due to the limited history of prior indemnification claims and the unique facts and circumstances involved in each particular agreement. Such indemnification agreements might not be subject to maximum loss clauses. Historically, we have not incurred material costs as a result of obligations under these agreements and we have not accrued any liabilities related to such indemnification obligations in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

We provide limited product warranties and the majority of our software license agreements contain provisions that indemnify licensees of our software from damages and costs resulting from claims alleging that our software infringes on the intellectual property rights of a third party. Historically, payments made under these provisions have been immaterial. We monitor the conditions that are subject to indemnification to identify if a loss has occurred.

Litigation contingencies

During the first quarter of fiscal 2013, we were advised by the Commercial Litigation Branch of the Department of Justice’s Civil Division and the Civil Division of the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Columbia that the government is investigating our compliance with certain provisions of our U.S. General Services Administration (“GSA”) Multiple Award Schedule Contract No. GS-35F-0240T effective January 24, 2007, including provisions relating to pricing, country of origin, accessibility, and the disclosure of commercial sales practices. We are cooperating with the investigation and we are unable, at this time, to predict the likely outcome. It is possible that the investigation could lead to claims or findings of violations of the False Claims Act in connection with our GSA contracting activity. However, given the status of the investigation, we are currently unable to estimate whether any loss has been incurred. Violations of the False Claims Act could result in the imposition of damages, including up to treble damages, plus civil penalties in some cases.

We are also involved in a number of other judicial and administrative proceedings that are incidental to our business. Although adverse decisions (or settlements) may occur in one or more of the cases, it is not possible to estimate the possible loss or losses from each of these cases. The final resolution of these lawsuits, individually or in the aggregate, is not expected to have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition or cash flow.

Note 8. Stock Repurchases

The following table summarizes our stock repurchases:


		Three Months Ended

Total number of shares repurchased		5
Dollar amount of shares repurchased		$125
Average price paid per share		$23.96
Range of price paid per share		$21.95 - $25.28

We have had stock repurchase programs in the past and have repurchased shares on a quarterly basis since the fourth quarter of fiscal 2004. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013, our board of directors authorized a new $1.0 billion stock repurchase program commencing in fiscal 2014. Including our previously approved stock repurchase program, approximately $1.0 billion remains authorized for future repurchases as of June 28, 2013, and neither program has an expiration date.

Note 9. Segment Information

In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013, we announced a new strategy and created three new business segments to provide customers with integrated solutions that solve important problems, as well as made changes to our organizational structure. In the first quarter of fiscal 2014, we modified our segment reporting structure to more readily match the new operating structure based on information reviewed by our CODM. The three reporting segments, which are the same as our operating segments, are as follows:

•

User Productivity & Protection: Our User Productivity & Protection segment focuses on making it simple for customers to be productive and protected at home and at work. These products include our endpoint security and management, encryption, and mobile offerings.

•

Information Security: Our Information Security segment focuses on keeping businesses safe and compliant, regardless of the size, location, or complexity of their infrastructure. These products include our next generation security capabilities, such as mail and web security, authentication services, data center security, managed security services, hosted security services, and data loss prevention.

•

Information Management: Our Information Management segment is comprised of offerings related to backup and recovery, information intelligence, which includes archiving and e-discovery, and information availability, which we previously referred to as storage management.

There were no intersegment sales for the three months ended June 28, 2013 or June 29, 2012. The historical information presented has been retrospectively adjusted to reflect the new segment reporting. The following table summarizes the operating results of our reporting segments:


	User Productivity & Protection			Information Security			Information Management			Total Segments

Operating income (loss)		258			(8	)		166			416
Operating margin		35	%		(3	)%		27	%

Operating segments are based upon the nature of the business and how the business is managed. Our CODM uses financial information to evaluate the performance of, and to assign resources to, each of the operating segments. We do not allocate to the operating segments certain operating expenses, which we manage separately at the corporate level. These unallocated costs primarily include amortization of intangible assets, restructuring and transition charges, stock-based compensation expense, impairment charges, and acquisition-related charges.

The reconciliation of Total segment operating income to Total consolidated operating income is as follows:

During the first quarter of fiscal 2014, we granted 67,550 Restricted Stock Awards to members of our board of directors. Each award had a fair value of $24.35 and vested immediately upon grant. As a result, we recorded $2 million of stock-based compensation expense for these awards during the first quarter of fiscal 2014.

Note 11. Income Taxes

The effective tax rate was approximately 29% and 27% for the three months ended June 28, 2013 and June 29, 2012, respectively.

For the three months ended June 28, 2013, the tax expense was reduced by $3 million in tax benefits primarily resulting from tax settlements, lapses of statutes of limitations, and prior year items. These tax benefits were offset by $6 million in tax expense resulting from the sale of short-term investments. For the three months ended June 29, 2012, the tax expense was reduced by $4 million in tax benefits primarily resulting from lapses of statutes of limitations and prior year items.

The provision for the three months ended June 28, 2013 and June 29, 2012 otherwise reflects a forecasted tax rate of 29% and 29%, respectively. The forecasted tax rates for both periods presented reflect the benefits of lower-taxed international earnings, domestic manufacturing incentives, and research and development credits (the U.S. federal R&D tax credit is currently set to expire on December 31, 2013), partially offset by state income taxes.

We are a U.S.-based multinational company subject to tax in multiple U.S. and international tax jurisdictions. A substantial portion of our international earnings were generated from subsidiaries organized in Ireland and Singapore. Our results of operations would be adversely affected to the extent that our geographical mix of income becomes more weighted toward jurisdictions with higher tax rates and would be favorably affected to the extent the relative geographic mix shifts to lower tax jurisdictions. Any change in our mix of earnings is dependent upon many factors and is therefore difficult to predict.

The timing of the resolution of income tax examinations is highly uncertain, and the amounts ultimately paid, if any, upon resolution of the issues raised by the taxing authorities may differ materially from the amounts accrued for each year. Although potential resolution of uncertain tax positions involve multiple tax periods and jurisdictions, it is reasonably possible that the gross unrecognized tax benefits related to these audits could decrease (whether by payment, release, or a combination of both) in the next 12 months by between $15 million and $130 million. Depending on the nature of the settlement or expiration of statutes of limitations, we estimate at least $15 million could affect our income tax provision and therefore benefit the resulting effective tax rate. As of June 28, 2013, we have $76 million on deposit with the IRS pertaining to U.S. tax matters in the Symantec 2005 through 2008 audit cycle.

We continue to monitor the progress of ongoing tax controversies and the impact, if any, of the expected expiration of the statute of limitations in various taxing jurisdictions.

Note 12. Earnings Per Share

The components of earnings per share attributable to Symantec Corporation stockholders are as follows:

Note 13. Subsequent Event

On July 30, 2013, our board of directors approved a quarterly dividend in the amount of $0.15 per share of common stock to be paid on September 18, 2013 to stockholders of record as of August 26, 2013. All shares of common stock issued and outstanding, and unvested restricted stock and performance-based stock as of August 26^th will be entitled to the dividend and dividend equivalents, respectively. Any future dividends and dividend equivalents will be subject to the approval of our board of directors.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Forward-looking statements and factors that may affect future results

The discussion below contains forward-looking statements, which are subject to safe harbors under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or the Securities Act, and the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Forward-looking statements include references to our ability to utilize our deferred tax assets, as well as statements including words such as “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “projects,” and similar expressions. In addition, statements that refer to projections of our future financial performance, anticipated growth and trends in our businesses and in our industries, the anticipated impacts of acquisitions, our intent to pay quarterly cash dividends in the future, the actions we intend to take as part of our new strategy, the expected impact of our new strategy and other characterizations of future events or circumstances are forward-looking statements. These statements are only predictions, based on our current expectations about future events and may not prove to be accurate. We do not undertake any obligation to update these forward-looking statements to reflect events occurring or circumstances arising after the date of this report. These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, and our actual results, performance, or achievements could differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements on the basis of several factors, including those that we discuss in Risk Factors, set forth in Part I, Item 1A, of our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 29, 2013. We encourage you to read that section carefully.

Fiscal calendar

We have a 52/53-week fiscal accounting year ending on the Friday closest to March 31. The three months ended June 28, 2013 and June 29, 2012 both consisted of 13 weeks.

OVERVIEW

Our business

Symantec is a global leader in security, backup and availability solutions. Our innovative products and services protect people and information in any digital environment – from the smallest mobile device, to the enterprise data center, to cloud-based systems. Our software and services protect against advanced threats independent of the device and environment in which information is used or stored.

Strategy

Our strategy is to develop innovative products and services, change our go-to-market plans and simplify our organizational structure. Our goal is to establish leadership in this evolving information-centric world by identifying and delivering solutions that solve large unmet or underserved customer needs, while building competitive advantage and creating sustainable financial performance. To successfully implement our strategy we are focusing on three areas: developing innovative products and services, changing our go-to-market plans, and simplifying our organization.

Financial Implications of New Strategy

Fiscal 2014 will include significant changes to our offerings, go-to-market plans and our organizational structure as we strive to create sustainable growth. We believe that sales of our innovative and differentiated products are enhanced by knowledgeable salespeople who can convey the strong value of our technology; as such, we are reorganizing our direct sales force into functional areas of security and information management. The focus of these specialized teams will be to generate new business. We expect that by dividing our direct sales force into specialized teams, we will improve the efficiency and effectiveness of our sales process.

Concurrently, we are creating a dedicated renewals team that will be focused on extending the customer relationship and renewing contracts. We are also streamlining our indirect sales channels to effectively reach

customers. We intend to have fewer, more focused partners. Additionally, we intend to reorient our partner programs to enhance reseller sales. We believe these changes will ensure that we provide our end customer with a high-quality sales and post-sales support experiences while expanding our business. Our income and cash flows are expected to be impacted by severance and other charges, as well as capital expenditures as we invest in our people, processes, infrastructure, and offerings to execute our organic growth strategy.

As part of our enhanced capital allocation strategy, we initiated a quarterly cash dividend in addition to our ongoing share repurchase activity. On May 2, 2013, our board of directors approved a quarterly dividend of $0.15 per share of common stock, the first dividend in Symantec’s history, which was paid on June 27, 2013 to all stockholders of record as of June 19, 2013.

Our operating segments

Our operating segments are significant strategic business units that offer different products and services, distinguished by customer needs. In the first quarter of fiscal 2014, we modified our segment reporting structure to match our new operating structure. The three reporting segments, which are the same as our operating segments, are as follows:

•

Financial results and trends

Our revenue increased by $41 million for the three months ended June 28, 2013, as compared to the same period last year, primarily driven by growth in our Information Management and Information Security segments. Our revenue grew both domestically and internationally in the three months ended June 28, 2013 as compared to the same period last year, with the highest growth in revenue, on a percentage basis, in the EMEA region followed by the Americas. The Asia Pacific and Japan region declined in this period primarily due to the unfavorable foreign currency impact of the Japanese Yen. Fluctuations in the U.S. dollar compared to foreign currencies unfavorably impacted our international revenue by $13 million for the three months ended June 28, 2013 as compared to the same period last year.

Cost of revenue increased by $16 million for the three months ended June 28, 2013 as compared to the same period last year, primarily due to the growth in our appliances business, Consulting offerings and Business Critical Services.

Operating expenses remained consistent as a percentage of revenue, while we continued to focus on investing in product development and incurred restructuring and transition costs coupled with effectively managing our cost structure. We experienced favorable foreign currency effects on our operating expenses of $13 million in the three months ended June 28, 2013 as compared to the same period last year. We expect research and development expenses to increase through fiscal 2017 as we invest to drive organic innovation for our customers. Furthermore, we will continue to incur significant charges related to the previously initiated restructuring plan as we reduce management and redundant personnel. Including costs previously incurred in fiscal 2013, we expect our total costs for severance and benefits under this restructuring plan to be between $220 million and $250 million. We expect to complete this restructuring plan by the end of fiscal 2014.

Critical accounting estimates

Deferred commissions

For further information on deferred commissions, refer to Note 1 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this Form 10-Q.

There have been no other material changes in the matters for which we make critical accounting estimates in the preparation of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements during the three months ended June 28, 2013 as compared to those 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 March 29, 2013.

Content, subscription, and maintenance revenue increased for the three months ended June 28, 2013, as compared to the same period last year, primarily due to increases in revenue from our Information Security segment of $21 million and our Information Management segment of $19 million.

License revenue includes sales from software licenses, appliances, and certain revenue-sharing arrangements. License revenue decreased for the three months ended June 28, 2013, as compared to the same period last year, primarily due to a decrease in revenue from our User Productivity & Protection segment of $9 million, partially offset by an increase in revenue from our Information Management segment of $5 million.

Information Security revenue increased across much of the portfolio of products primarily due to increases in authentication services, hosted security services, and managed security services of $17 million. Information Security operating income increased primarily due to the higher revenue coupled with lower salaries and wages of $7 million and outside services of $5 million.

Information Management segment

Information Management revenue increased primarily due to the growth of our NetBackup and appliance offerings of $40 million, partially offset by declines in our information availability offerings of $14 million and our Backup Exec offerings of $9 million. Information Management operating income decreased primarily from higher cost of revenue of $20 million, compensation of $5 million, and equipment costs of $5 million, partially offset by the revenue growth. The increased cost of revenue was mainly due to growth in the appliance business resulting in higher material costs coupled with higher technical support and services costs.

Fluctuations in the U.S. dollar compared to foreign currencies unfavorably impacted our international revenue by approximately $13 million for the three months ended June 28, 2013 as compared to the same period last year. The Asia Pacific and Japan region declined primarily due to the unfavorable foreign currency impact of the Japanese Yen. Our international sales are and will continue to be a significant portion of our revenue. As a result, revenue will continue to be affected by foreign currency exchange rates as compared to the U.S. dollar. We are unable to predict the extent to which revenue in future periods will be impacted by changes in foreign currency exchange rates. If international sales continue to become a greater portion of our total sales in the future, changes in foreign currency exchange rates may have a potentially greater impact on our revenue and operating results.

Gross margin		82	%		83	%

Cost of content, subscription, and maintenance consists primarily of technical support costs, costs of billable services, and fees to original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) under revenue-sharing agreements. Cost of content,

subscription, and maintenance increased primarily due to higher technical support, services, and OEM royalty costs. The increased costs were due to growth in our business and higher services costs and royalty payments to major OEM partners as part of revenue-sharing arrangements. Cost of content, subscription, and maintenance as a percentage of related revenue remained consistent. Cost of license consists primarily of royalties paid to third parties under technology licensing agreements, appliance manufacturing costs, and other direct material costs. Cost of license and cost of license as a percentage of related revenue increased primarily due to the higher direct costs associated with the appliance business. Intangible assets are comprised of developed technologies and patents from acquired companies. Amortization decreased for the three months ended June 28, 2013, as compared with same period last year, due to certain developed technology becoming fully amortized.

Sales and marketing expense decreased for the three months ended June 28, 2013, as compared to the same period last year, primarily due to lower advertising and promotional expenses of $26 million, which was mainly attributable to lower placement fees, and outside services of $9 million, partially offset by higher salaries and wages of $20 million. Research and development and general and administrative expenses remained consistent as a percentage of revenue when compared to the same period last year. Intangible assets are comprised of customer relationships and trade names. Amortization of intangible assets remained consistent for the periods presented.

Restructuring and transition costs consist of severance, facilities, transition and other related costs. Transition and other related costs consist of severance costs associated with acquisition integrations and other charges associated with the planning and design phases of a new enterprise resource planning system. For the three months ended June 28, 2013, we recognized $64 million of severance, $18 million of transition and other related costs, and $1 million of facilities costs. The severance charges were associated with the previously announced restructuring plan in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013. This plan is expected to be completed in fiscal 2014 and we expect to incur significant restructuring charges thereunder. For the three months ended June 29, 2012, we recognized transition and other related costs of $35 million, which was comprised of $26 million in severance and $9 million in costs related to the planning and design phases. For further information on restructuring and transition costs, see Note 6 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this report.

The decrease in non-operating expense, net is mainly driven by a realized gain from sale of short-term investments of $16 million during the three months ended June 28, 2013 coupled with lower amortization of debt issuance costs and discounts of $10 million when compared to the same period last year.

We continue to monitor the progress of ongoing tax controversies and the impact, if any, of the expected expiration of the statute of limitations in various taxing jurisdictions.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Sources of Cash

We have historically relied on cash flow from operations, borrowings under a credit facility, and issuances of debt and equity securities for our liquidity needs. As of June 28, 2013, we had cash and cash equivalents of $3.7 billion and an unused credit facility of $1.0 billion resulting in a liquidity position of approximately $4.7 billion. As of June 28, 2013, $2.2 billion in cash and cash equivalents were held by our foreign subsidiaries. We have provided U.S. deferred taxes on a portion of our undistributed foreign earnings sufficient to address the incremental U.S. tax that would be due if we need such portion of these funds to support our operations in the U.S.

Senior Notes: In the first quarter of fiscal 2013, we issued $600 million in principal amount of 2.75% senior notes due June 15, 2017 and $400 million in principal amount of 3.95% senior notes due June 15, 2022, for an aggregate principal amount of $1.0 billion. In the second quarter of fiscal 2011, we issued $350 million in principal amount of 2.75% senior notes due September 15, 2015 and $750 million in principal amount of 4.20% senior notes due September 15, 2020, for an aggregate principal amount of $1.1 billion.

Revolving Credit Facility: In the second quarter of fiscal 2011, we entered into a $1.0 billion senior unsecured revolving credit facility (“credit facility”), which was amended in the first quarter of 2013 to extend the term to June 7, 2017. Under the terms of this credit facility, we must comply with certain financial and non-financial covenants, including a debt to EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) covenant. As of June 28, 2013, we were in compliance with all required covenants, and there was no outstanding balance on the credit facility.

We believe that our existing cash and investment balances, our borrowing capacity, our ability to issue new debt instruments, and cash generated from operations will be sufficient to meet our working capital and capital expenditure requirements, as well as any cash dividends to be paid under the capital allocation program announced in January 2013 and repurchases of our stock, for at least the next 12 months and foreseeable future. We have implemented a capital allocation strategy pursuant to which we expect to return over time approximately 50% of free cash flow to stockholders through a combination of dividends and share repurchases, while still enabling our company to invest in its future. Our strategy emphasizes organic growth through internal innovation and will be complemented by acquisitions that fit strategically and meet specific internal profitability hurdles.

Uses of Cash

Our principal cash requirements include working capital, capital expenditures, payments of principal and interest on our debt, and payments of taxes. Also, we may, from time to time, engage in the open market purchase of our notes prior to their maturity. Furthermore, our capital allocation strategy includes plans for a quarterly cash dividend. In addition, we regularly evaluate our ability to repurchase stock, pay debts and acquire other businesses.

Convertible Senior Notes: On June 15, 2013, the principal balance on our 1.00% notes matured and was settled by a cash payment of $1.0 billion, along with the $5 million semi-annual interest payment. In addition, we elected to pay the conversion value above par value in cash in the amount of $189 million. Concurrently with the payment of the conversion value, we received $189 million from our note hedge, which we had entered into at the time of the issuance of the 1.00% notes.

Stock Repurchases: For the three months ended June 28, 2013, we repurchased 5 million shares, or $125 million, of our common stock. During the three months ended June 29, 2012, we repurchased 19 million shares, or $301 million, of our common stock. As of June 28, 2013, we had $1.0 billion remaining under the plans authorized for future repurchases. This includes a new $1.0 billion stock repurchase program authorized by our board of directors during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013.

Dividend Program: During the three months ended June 28, 2013, we paid a cash dividend of $0.15 per share of common stock for a total of $105 million, which was recorded as a reduction to Additional paid-in capital. In addition, our board of directors approved dividend equivalent rights entitling holders of restricted stock and performance-based stock to dividend equivalents to be paid in the form of cash upon vesting, for each share of the underlying units. No dividends and dividend equivalents were paid in any periods prior to fiscal 2014. On July 30, 2013, our board of directors approved a quarterly dividend in the amount of $0.15 per share to be paid on September 18, 2013 to stockholders of record as of August 26, 2013. Any future dividends and dividend equivalents will be subject to the approval of our board of directors.

Restructuring Plan: In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013, we announced our strategy to develop innovative products and services, change our go-to-market plans and simplify our organizational structure. We initiated a restructuring plan in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013 to reduce management and redundant personnel resulting in headcount reductions across the Company. These actions are expected to be completed in fiscal 2014. As of June 28, 2013, total cost incurred to date is $74 million, primarily related to severance and related employee benefits. Including costs previously incurred in fiscal 2013, we expect our total cost for severance and benefits to be between $220 million and $250 million.

Acquisitions: During the three months ended June 29, 2012, we acquired a privately-held provider of mobile application management for an aggregate payment of $28 million, net of cash acquired.

Noncontrolling Interest: In July 2012, we completed a tender offer and paid $92 million to acquire VeriSign Japan common shares and stock rights, which increased our ownership percentage to 92%. In November 2012, we acquired the remaining 8% interest for $19 million and it became a wholly-owned subsidiary. The payment for the remaining 8% interest was made in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013.

Contractual Obligations

There have been no significant changes during the three months ended June 28, 2013 to the contractual obligations disclosed in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, set forth in Part II, Item 7, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 29, 2013.

Indemnifications

We provide limited product warranties and the majority of our software license agreements contain provisions that indemnify licensees of our software from damages and costs resulting from claims alleging that our software infringes the intellectual property rights of a third party. Historically, payments made under these provisions have been immaterial. We monitor the conditions that are subject to indemnification to identify if a loss has occurred.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

There have been no significant changes in our market risk exposures during the three months ended June 28, 2013 as compared to the market risk exposures disclosed in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, set forth in Part II, Item 7A, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 29, 2013.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The SEC defines the term “disclosure controls and procedures” to mean a company’s controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. “Disclosure controls and procedures” include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management. Our management (with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer) has conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act). Based on such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of the end of the period covered by this report.

(b) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended June 28, 2013 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

(c) Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our company have been detected.
