Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Description of Business
Juniper Networks, Inc. (Juniper Networks or the Company) designs, develops and sells products
and services that together provide its customers with high performance network infrastructure that
creates responsive and trusted environments for accelerating the deployment of services and
applications over a single Internet Protocol (IP) based network. Beginning in the first quarter
of 2008, the Company realigned its business groups which resulted in the following two segments:
Infrastructure and Service Layer Technologies (SLT). The Companys Infrastructure segment
primarily offers scalable router and Ethernet switching products that are used to control and
direct network traffic. The Companys SLT segment offers networking solutions that meet a broad
array of its customers priorities, from securing the network and the data on the network, to
maximizing existing bandwidth and acceleration of applications across a distributed network. Both
segments offer world-wide services, including technical support and professional services, as well
as educational and training programs to their customers. Together, these elements provide secure
networking solutions to enable customers to convert legacy networks that provide commoditized, best
efforts services into more valuable assets that provide differentiation, value and increased
reliability, performance and security to end users.
Basis of Presentation
The unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with
U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information as well as the
instructions to Form 10-Q and the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission (SEC). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required
by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion
of management, all adjustments, including normal recurring accruals, considered necessary for a
fair presentation have been included. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2008, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year
ending December 31, 2008, or any future period. The information included in this Quarterly Report
on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations, Risk Factors, Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures
About Market Risk and the Consolidated Financial Statements and footnotes thereto included in the
Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007.
Revenue Recognition
Juniper Networks sells products and services through its direct sales force and through its
strategic distribution relationships and value-added resellers. The Companys products are
integrated with software that is essential to the functionality of the equipment. The Company also
provides unspecified upgrades and enhancements related to the integrated software through
maintenance contracts for most of its products. Accordingly, the Company accounts for revenue in
accordance with Statement of Position No. 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, and all related
interpretations. The Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists,
delivery or performance has occurred, the sales price is fixed or determinable, and collectability
is reasonably assured. Evidence of an arrangement generally consists of customer purchase orders
and, in certain instances, sales contracts or agreements. Shipping terms and related documents, or
written evidence of customer acceptance, when applicable, are used to verify delivery or
performance. In instances where the Company has outstanding obligations related to product delivery
or the final acceptance of the product, revenue is deferred until all the delivery and acceptance
criteria have been met. The Company assesses whether the sales price is fixed or determinable based
on payment terms and whether the sales price is subject to refund or adjustment. Collectability is
assessed based on the creditworthiness of the customer as determined by credit checks and the
customers payment history to the
6
Company. Accounts receivable are recorded net of allowance for doubtful accounts, estimated
customer returns and pricing credits.
For arrangements with multiple elements, such as sales of products that include services, the
Company allocates revenue to each element using the residual method based on vendor specific
objective evidence of fair value of the undelivered items. Under the residual method, the amount of
revenue allocated to delivered elements equals the total arrangement consideration less the
aggregate fair value of any undelivered elements. Vendor specific objective evidence of fair value
is based on the price charged when the element is sold separately. If vendor specific objective
evidence of fair value of one or more undelivered items does not exist, revenue is deferred and
recognized at the earlier of (i) delivery of those elements or (ii) when fair value can be
established unless maintenance is the only undelivered element, in which case, the entire
arrangement fee is recognized ratably over the contractual support period. The Company accounts for
multiple agreements with a single customer as one arrangement if the contractual terms and/or
substance of those agreements indicate that they may be so closely related that they are, in
effect, parts of a single arrangement.
For sales to direct end-users and value-added resellers, the Company recognizes product revenue
upon transfer of title and risk of loss, which is generally upon shipment. It is the Companys
practice to identify an end-user prior to shipment to a value-added reseller. For end-users and
value-added resellers, the Company has no significant obligations for future performance such as
rights of return or pricing credits. A portion of the Companys sales are made through distributors
under agreements allowing for pricing credits and/or rights of return. Product revenue on sales
made through these distributors is recognized upon sell-through as reported by the distributors to
the Company. Deferred revenue on shipments to distributors reflects the effects of distributor
pricing credits and the amount of gross margin expected to be realized upon sell-through.
The Company sells certain interests in accounts receivable on a non-recourse basis as part of a
distributor accounts receivable financing arrangement which was established by the Company with a
major financing company. Accounts receivable sold under this arrangement in advance of revenue
recognition are accounted for as short-term debt and had a balance of $12.1 million and $10.0
million as of September 30, 2008, and December 31, 2007, respectively. Deferred revenue on
shipments to distributors reflects these effects of distributor pricing credits and the amount of
gross margin expected to be realized upon sell-through. Deferred revenue is recorded net of the
related product costs of revenue.
The Company records reductions to revenue for estimated product returns and pricing adjustments,
such as rebates and price protection, in the same period that the related revenue is recorded. The
amount of these reductions is based on historical sales returns and price protection credits,
specific criteria included in rebate agreements, and other factors known at the time. In addition,
the Company reports revenue net of sales taxes.
Shipping charges billed to customers are included in product revenue and the related shipping costs
are included in cost of product revenues. Costs associated with cooperative advertising programs
are estimated and recorded as a reduction of revenue at the time the related sales are recognized.
Services include maintenance, training and professional services. In addition to providing
unspecified upgrades and enhancements on a when and if available basis, the Companys maintenance
contracts include 24-hour technical support and hardware repair and replacement parts. Maintenance
is offered under renewable contracts. Revenue from maintenance contracts is deferred and is
generally recognized ratably over the contractual support period, which is generally one to three
years. Revenue from training and professional services is recognized as the services are completed
or ratably over the contractual period, which is generally one year or less.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment, (SFAS 123R) which requires the
measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all stock-based awards made to employees
and directors including employee stock options, restricted stock units (RSUs), performance share
awards and employee stock purchases under the Companys Employee Stock Purchase Plan based on
estimated fair values. SFAS 123R requires
7
companies to estimate the fair value of stock-based awards on the date of grant using an option
pricing model. The Company uses the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model and incorporates a
Monte Carlo simulation when appropriate to determine the fair value of stock based awards under
SFAS 123R. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized
as expense over the requisite service periods in the Companys condensed consolidated statements of
operations.
Stock-based compensation expense recognized in the Companys condensed consolidated statements of
operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, included compensation
expense for stock-based awards granted prior to, but not yet vested as of the adoption of SFAS
123R, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, (SFAS 123)
and compensation expense for the stock-based awards granted subsequent to December 31, 2005, based
on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123R. Compensation
expense for expected-to-vest stock-based awards that were granted on or prior to December 31, 2005,
was valued under the multiple-option approach and will continue to be amortized using the
accelerated attribution method. Subsequent to December 31, 2005, compensation expense for
expected-to-vest stock-based awards is valued under the single-option approach and amortized on a
straight-line basis, net of estimated forfeitures.
Goodwill and Purchased Intangible Assets
Goodwill is not subject to amortization but is assessed annually, at a minimum, for impairment by
applying a fair value based test. Future goodwill impairment tests could result in a charge to
earnings. Purchased intangible assets with finite lives are amortized on a straight-line basis over
their respective estimated useful lives.
Impairment
The Company evaluates goodwill, at a minimum, on an annual basis and whenever events and changes in
circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Juniper
Networks conducted its annual impairment test as of November 1, 2007, and determined that the
carrying value of its goodwill was not impaired. There were no events or circumstances from that
date through September 30, 2008, that would impact this assessment. Future impairment indicators,
including sustained declines in the Companys market capitalization or a decrease in revenue or
profitability levels, could require impairment charges to be recorded.
The Company evaluates long-lived assets held-for-use for impairment whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. There were no
impairments for the three months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007. For the nine months ended
September 30, 2008, the Company recognized an impairment charge of $5.0 million, included in
amortization of purchased intangible assets, in connection with the phase out of its DX product,
and nil for the nine months ended September 30, 2007.
Warranties
Juniper Networks generally offers a one-year warranty on all of its hardware products and a 90-day
warranty on the media that contains the software embedded in the products. The warranty generally
includes parts and labor obtained through the Companys 24-hour service center. On occasion, the
specific terms and conditions of those warranties vary. The Company accrues for warranty costs
based on estimates of the costs that may be incurred under its warranty obligations, including
material costs, technical support labor costs and associated overhead. The warranty accrual is
included in the Companys cost of revenues and is recorded at the time revenue is recognized.
Factors that affect the Companys warranty liability include the number of installed units, its
estimates of anticipated rates of warranty claims, costs per claim and estimated support labor
costs and the associated overhead. The Company periodically assesses the adequacy of its recorded
warranty liabilities and adjusts the amounts as necessary.
8
Concentrations
Financial instruments, including those held in foreign branches of global banks, that subject
Juniper Networks to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents,
investments and accounts receivable. Juniper Networks maintains its cash, cash equivalents and
available-for-sale investments in fixed income securities and money market funds with high-quality
institutions and only invests in high quality credit instruments. Deposits held with banks,
including those held in foreign branches of global banks, may exceed the amount of insurance
provided on such deposits. Generally, these deposits may be redeemed upon demand and therefore bear
minimal risk.
Generally, credit risk with respect to accounts receivable is diversified due to the number of
entities comprising the Companys customer base and their dispersion across different geographic
locations throughout the world. Juniper Networks performs ongoing credit evaluations of its
customers and generally does not require collateral on accounts receivable. Juniper Networks
maintains reserves for potential credit losses and historically such losses have been within
managements expectations.
The Company relies on sole suppliers for certain of its components such as application-specific
integrated circuits (ASICs) and custom sheet metal. Additionally, Juniper Networks relies
primarily on a limited number of significant independent contract manufacturers for the production
of all of its products. The inability of any supplier or manufacturer to fulfill supply
requirements of Juniper Networks could negatively impact future operating results.
Fair Value Accounting
In February 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the FASB) issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial
Liabilities-including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (SFAS 159). SFAS 159 expands the use
of fair value accounting to eligible financial assets and liabilities. SFAS 159 is effective
beginning on January 1, 2008. The Company evaluated its existing financial instruments and elected
not to adopt the fair value option on its financial instruments. However, because the SFAS 159
election is based on an instrument-by-instrument election at the time the Company first recognizes
an eligible item or enters into an eligible firm commitment, the Company may decide to exercise the
option on new items when business reasons support doing so in the future. As a result, SFAS 159 did
not have any impact on the Companys consolidated financial condition or results of operations as
of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, (SFAS 157), which is
effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and for interim periods within those
years. This statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and
expands the related disclosure requirements. This statement applies to accounting pronouncements
that require or permit fair value measurements with certain exclusions. The statement provides that
a fair value measurement assumes that the transaction to sell an asset or transfer a liability
occurs in the principal market for the asset or liability or, in the absence of a principal market,
the most advantageous market for the asset or liability. SFAS 157 defines fair value based upon an
exit price model. The Company adopted the effective portions of SFAS 157 on January 1, 2008.
The FASB issued FASB Staff Positions (FSP) 157-1, 157-2, and 157-3. FSP 157-1 amends SFAS 157 to
exclude SFAS No. 13, Accounting for Leases, (SFAS 13) and its related interpretive accounting
pronouncements that address leasing transactions. FSP 157-2 delays the effective date of the
application of SFAS 157 to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, for all nonfinancial
assets and nonfinancial liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial
statements on a nonrecurring basis. Non-recurring nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities
for which the Company has not applied the provisions of SFAS 157 include those measured at fair
value in goodwill impairment tests, intangible assets measured at fair value for impairment, asset
retirement obligations initially measured at fair value, and those initially measured at fair value
in a business combination. FSP 157-3 clarifies the application of SFAS 157 in an inactive market.
FSP 157-3 was effective upon issuance, including prior periods for which financial statements had
not been issued. Because the Company does not hold financial assets for which the market is
inactive, the implementation of this standard did not impact our consolidated results of operations
or financial condition.
9
SFAS 157 establishes a valuation hierarchy for disclosure of the inputs to fair value measurement.
This hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three broad levels as follows: Level 1 inputs are
unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; Level 2 inputs are
quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable
for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly through market corroboration, for
substantially the full term of the financial instrument; Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs
based on our own assumptions used to measure assets and liabilities at fair value. A financial
asset or liabilitys classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level
input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
For disclosure purposes, the Company is required to measure the fair value of outstanding debt on a
recurring basis. Long-term debt is reported at amortized cost in accordance with SFAS No. 107,
Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments. The fair value of long-term debt, based on
quoted market prices (Level 1), was $659.2 million at December 31, 2007. The Companys Senior
Convertible Notes were converted into shares of the Companys common stock during the nine months
ended September 30, 2008. See Note 4 Other Financial Information under Senior Convertible
Notes.

The Company classifies investments within Level 1 if quoted prices are available in active markets.
Level 1 assets include instruments valued based on quoted market prices in active markets which
generally include money market funds, corporate equity securities publicly traded on major
exchanges and U.S. Treasury notes with quoted prices on active markets.
The Company classifies items in Level 2 if the investments are valued using observable inputs to
quoted market prices, benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes or alternative
pricing sources with reasonable levels of price transparency. These investments include: U.S.
T-Bills, government agencies, corporate bonds and commercial paper. Investments are held by a
custodian who obtains investment prices from a third party pricing provider that uses standard
inputs to models which vary by asset class. The Company classifies all derivatives in Level 2 using
observable market inputs and standard valuation techniques.
10
The Company did not hold financial assets and liabilities which were recorded at fair value in the
Level 3 category as of September 30, 2008.
Seasonality
Many companies in the networking industry experience adverse seasonal fluctuations in customer
spending patterns, particularly in the first and third quarters. In addition, the Companys SLT
segment has experienced seasonally strong customer demand in the fourth quarter. This historical
pattern should not be considered a reliable indicator of the Companys future net revenues or
financial performance.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In October 2008, the FASB issued FSP 157-3, Determining Fair Value of a Financial Asset in a Market
That Is Not Active (FSP 157-3). FSP 157-3 clarifies the application of Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, in an inactive market. It demonstrates how
the fair value of a financial asset is determined when the market for that financial asset is
inactive. FSP 157-3 was effective upon issuance, including prior periods for which financial
statements had not been issued. The Companys implementation of this standard did not impact its
consolidated results of operations or financial condition.
In September 2008, the FASB issued FSP FAS 133-1 and FIN 45-4, Disclosures about Credit Derivatives
and Certain Guarantees: An Amendment of FASB Statement No. 133 and FASB Interpretation No. 45; and
Clarification of the Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 161 (FSP FAS 133-1 and FIN 45-4). FSP
FAS 133-1 and FIN 45-4 amends Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (SFAS 133), to require disclosures by sellers of
credit derivatives, including credit derivatives embedded in hybrid instruments. FSP FAS 133-1 and
FIN 45-4 also amend FASB Interpretation No. 45, Guarantors Accounting and Disclosure Requirements
for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness to Others (FIN 45), to require
additional disclosure about the current status of the payment/performance risk of a guarantee. The
provisions of the FSP that amend SFAS 133 and FIN 45 are effective for reporting periods ending
after November 15, 2008. FSP FAS 133-1 and FIN 45-4 also clarifies the effective date in Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities (SFAS 161). Disclosures required by SFAS 161 are effective for financial statements
issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. The Companys
adoption of FSP FAS 133-1 and FIN 45-4 on January 1, 2009, will not impact its consolidated results
of operations or financial condition.
In May 2008, the FASB issued FSP Accounting Principles Board (APB) 14-1, Accounting for
Convertible Debt Instruments That May Be Settled in Cash upon Conversion (Including Partial Cash
Settlement) (FSP APB 14-1). FSP APB 14-1 requires the issuer of certain convertible debt
instruments that may be settled in cash (or other assets) on conversion to separately account for
the liability (debt) and equity (conversion option) components of the instrument in a manner that
reflects the issuers non-convertible debt borrowing rate. FSP APB 14-1 must be applied
retrospectively to previously issued convertible instruments that may be settled in cash or partial
cash as well as prospectively to newly issued instruments. FSP APB 14-1 is effective for fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company
has evaluated the requirements of FSP APB 14-1 and determined that the Companys convertible debt
was not subject to the requirements of FSP APB 14-1. The Companys adoption of FSP APB 14-1 on
January 1, 2009, will not impact its consolidated results of operations or financial condition.
In April 2008, the FASB issued FSP FAS 142-3, Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets
(FSP FAS 142-3). FSP FAS 142-3 amends the factors that should be considered in developing renewal
or extension assumptions used in determining the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. This new
guidance applies prospectively to intangible assets that are acquired individually or with a group
of other assets in business combinations and asset acquisitions. FSP FAS 142-3 is effective for
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and early adoption is prohibited. The impact of FSP
FAS 142-3 will depend upon the nature, terms, and size of the acquisitions the Company consummates
after the effective date.
11
In March 2008, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 161, Disclosures
about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133 (SFAS
161). SFAS 161 enhances required disclosures regarding derivatives and hedging activities,
including enhanced disclosures regarding how: (a) an entity uses derivative instruments, (b)
derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under FASB Statement No. 133,
Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, and (c) derivative instruments and
related hedged items affect an entitys financial position, financial performance and cash flows.
SFAS 161 is effective for the fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008, and will be adopted
by the Company on January 1, 2009. The Companys adoption of SFAS 161 on January 1, 2009, will not
impact its consolidated results of operations or financial condition.
In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 160,
Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements an amendment of ARB No. 51 (SFAS
160). SFAS 160 addresses the accounting and reporting standards for ownership interests in
subsidiaries held by parties other than the parent, the amount of consolidated net income
attributable to the parent and to the noncontrolling interest, changes in a parents ownership
interest, and the valuation of retained noncontrolling equity investments when a subsidiary is
deconsolidated. SFAS 160 also establishes disclosure requirements that clearly identify and
distinguish between the interests of the parent and the interests of the noncontrolling owners.
SFAS 160 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and will be adopted by
the Company on January 1, 2009. The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS 160 to have a
material effect on its consolidated results of operations or financial condition.
In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141 (revised
2007), Business Combinations (SFAS 141R). SFAS 141R establishes principles and requirements for
the acquirer of a business to recognize and measure in its financial statements the identifiable
assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree. The
statement also provides guidance for recognizing and measuring the goodwill acquired in the
business combination and determines what information to disclose to enable users of the financial
statement to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business combination. SFAS 141R is
effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008.
Earlier application of SFAS 141R is prohibited. Accordingly, any business combinations the Company
may engage in will be recorded and disclosed following existing GAAP until January 1, 2009. The
impact of SFAS 141R will depend upon the nature, terms, and size of the acquisitions the Company
consummates after the effective date.

Note 3. Goodwill and Purchased Intangible Assets
Goodwill
In the first quarter of 2008, the Company realigned its organizational structure to eliminate its
Service segment and to include its service business into the related Infrastructure and SLT
segments. As a result, the Company, with the assistance of an external service provider,
reallocated goodwill of the former Service segment to the Infrastructure and SLT segments based on
a relative fair value approach. Fair value was based on comparative market values and discounted
cash flows. There was no indication of impairment when goodwill was reallocated to the new
reporting segments.
The following table presents changes in goodwill by segment during the nine months ended September
30, 2008 (in millions):

Note 4. Other Financial Information
Restricted Cash
As of September 30, 2008, and December 31, 2007, restricted cash of $43.5 million and $35.5
million, respectively, consisted of escrow accounts required by certain acquisitions completed in
2005, the India Gratuity Trust and the Directors & Officers (D&O) indemnification trust. During
the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, the Company increased its restricted cash by
$0.5 million and $1.3 million to fund the India Gratuity Trust, which covers statutory severance
obligations in the event of termination of its India employees who have provided five or more years
of continuous service. Juniper Networks established the D&O trust to secure its indemnification
obligations to certain directors, officers, and other specified employees, arising from their
activities as such, in the event that the Company does not provide or is financially incapable of
providing indemnification. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, the Company
also increased its restricted cash balance by $4.9 million and $6.7 million, respectively, to
provide additional coverage under its D&O trust as the Company grows. During the three and nine
months ended September 30, 2008, the Company made no releases from restricted cash for escrow
payments associated with past acquisitions.

Minority Equity Investments
As of September 30, 2008, and December 31, 2007, the carrying values of the Companys minority
equity investments in privately held companies of $26.3 million and $23.3 million, respectively,
were included in other long-term assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. During the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, the Company invested a total of $2.5 million and
$4.5 million, respectively, in privately-held companies. During the nine months ended September 30,
2008, the Company recognized a loss of $1.5 million related to investments in privately-held
companies.
The Companys minority equity investments in privately held companies are carried at cost as the
Company does not have a controlling interest and does not have the ability to exercise significant
influence over these companies. The Company adjusts its minority equity investments for any
impairment if the fair value exceeds the carrying value of the respective assets.

receivable in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Product deferred revenue, net
of the related cost of revenue, includes shipments to end-users, value-added resellers, and
distributors. The portion of deferred revenue that the Company anticipates will be recognized
during the succeeding 12-month period is recorded as current deferred revenue, and the remaining
portion is recorded as long-term deferred revenue. The Company may reclassify amounts between
current and long-term deferred revenue based upon its assessment of when all revenue recognition
criteria are expected to be met. Details of the Companys deferred revenue are as follows (in

Restructuring and Acquisition Related Reserves
Restructuring
Restructuring charges were based on the Companys restructuring plans that were committed to by
management. Any changes in the estimates of executing the approved plans will be reflected in the
Companys results of operations.
In the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, the Company paid $0.1 million and $0.5
million, respectively, for facility charges associated with its restructuring plans initiated in
prior years. As of September 30, 2008, and December 31, 2007, the restructuring reserve of $0.1
million and $0.6 million, respectively, was related to future facility charges. Amounts related to
the net facility charges are included in other accrued liabilities and will be paid over the
remaining respective lease term through April 2009. The difference between the actual future rent
payments and the net present value will be recorded as operating expenses when incurred. During the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, the Company had no additional
restructuring charges.
Acquisition Related Restructuring Reserves
Acquisition related restructuring reserves pertain to the restructuring reserves established in
connection with the Companys past acquisitions. In conjunction with various acquisitions, the
Company accrued for acquisition related restructuring charges primarily related to severance and
facility charges.
The Company paid $0.2 million and $0.8 million for the three and nine months ended September 30,
2008, respectively, and $0.4 million and $1.4 million for the three and nine months ended September
30, 2007, respectively, primarily for facility related charges. The Company recorded nil
adjustments to its existing acquisition related restructuring reserves for the three and nine
months ended September 30, 2008, and recorded nil and $0.3 million adjustments to its acquisition
related restructuring reserves for facility related charges in the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2007, respectively. As of September 30, 2008, approximately $0.7 million remained
unpaid, of which $0.3 million was recorded in other long-term liabilities in the condensed
consolidated balance sheet. As of December 31, 2007, approximately $1.6 million remained unpaid, of
which $0.6 million was recorded in other long-term liabilities in the condensed consolidated
balance sheet. All remaining restructuring reserves were associated with future facility charges
and will be paid over the remaining respective lease terms through March 2011. The difference
between the actual future rent payments and the restructuring reserves will be recorded as
operating expenses when incurred. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008 and
2007, the Company had no new acquisition related restructuring charges.
Derivatives
The Company uses derivatives to partially offset its market exposure to fluctuations in certain
foreign currencies. The Company does not enter into derivatives for speculative or trading
purposes.
The Company uses foreign currency forward contracts to mitigate gains and losses generated from the
re-measurement of certain foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities. These
derivatives are carried at fair value with changes recorded in interest and other income, net.
Changes in the fair value of these derivatives are largely offset by re-measurement of the
underlying assets and liabilities. Cash flows from such derivatives are classified as operating
activities. These foreign exchange forward contracts have maturities between one and two months.
The Company also uses foreign currency forward and/or option contracts to hedge certain forecasted
foreign currency transactions relating to operating expenses. These derivatives are designated as
cash flow hedges and have maturities of less than one year. The effective portion of the
derivatives gain or loss is initially reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive
income, and upon occurrence of the forecasted transaction, is subsequently reclassified into the
operating expense line item to which the hedged transaction relates. The Company records
ineffectiveness of the hedging instruments, which was immaterial during the three and nine months
ended
16
September 30, 2008 and 2007, in other income (expense) on its condensed consolidated statements of
operations. Cash flows from such hedges are classified as operating activities.
Debt
Senior Convertible Notes
In 2003, the Company received $392.8 million of net proceeds from an offering of $400.0 million
aggregate principal amount of Zero Coupon Convertible Senior Notes due June 15, 2008 (the Senior
Notes). The Senior Notes were senior unsecured obligations, ranked on parity in right of payment
with all of the Companys existing and future senior unsecured debt, and ranked senior to all of
the Companys existing and future debt that expressly provided that it was subordinated to the
notes. The Senior Notes bore no interest, but were convertible into shares of the Companys common
stock, subject to certain conditions, at any time prior to maturity or their prior repurchase by
the Company. The conversion rate was 49.6512 shares per each $1,000 principal amount of convertible
notes, subject to adjustment in certain circumstances. This was equivalent to a conversion price of
approximately $20.14 per share. The holders of Senior Notes with a face value of approximately $0.5
million had converted these notes prior to maturity into shares of the Companys common stock as of
December 31, 2007. As of June 16, 2008, holders of approximately $399.2 million in aggregate
principal amount of Senior Notes had converted these notes into approximately 19.8 million shares
of the Companys common stock. The Company settled the remaining Senior Notes, with a face value of
$0.3 million principal amount at maturity, for cash. As of September 30, 2008, all of the Companys
Senior Notes were retired.
The carrying amounts and fair values of the Senior Notes were (in millions):

Distributor Financing Arrangement
The Company recognizes the sales of accounts receivable to a financing provider according to FASB
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of
Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities, a replacement of FASB Statement No. 125. The
Company introduced its distributor financing program in 2006 to strengthen its channel business by
promoting greater distributor volume and improved customer service. The program does not, and is
not intended to, affect the timing of revenue recognition because the Company only recognizes
revenue upon sell-through. Under the financing arrangements, the proceeds from the financing
provider are due to the Company 30 days from the sale of the receivable. The Company pays the
financing provider a financing fee based on the spread over LIBOR or SIBOR. In these transactions
with a major financing provider, the Company has surrendered control over the transferred assets.
The accounts receivable have been isolated from the Company and put beyond the reach of creditors,
even in the event of bankruptcy. The purchaser of the accounts receivable balances has the right to
pledge or exchange the assets transferred. The Company does not maintain effective control over the
transferred assets through obligations or rights to redeem, transfer or repurchase the receivables
after they have been transferred.
Pursuant to the receivable financing arrangements for the sale of receivables, the Company sold net
receivables of $139.8 million and $22.8 million during the three months ended September 30, 2008,
and 2007, respectively, and $306.9 million and $61.4 million during the nine months ended September
30, 2008, and 2007, respectively. During the three months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, the
Company received cash proceeds of $125.6 million and $18.3 million, respectively, and $257.7
million and $53.9 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.
The amounts owed by the financing provider recorded as accounts receivable on the Companys
condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2008, and December 31, 2007, were $82.5
million and $40.4 million, respectively.
The portion of the receivable financed that has not been recognized as revenue is accounted for as
a financing pursuant to FASB Emerging Issues Task Force Issue 88-18, Sales of Future Revenues. As
of September 30, 2008,
17
and December 31, 2007, the estimated amounts of cash received from the financing provider that has
not been recognized as revenue from its distributors was $12.1 million and $10.0 million,
respectively.

In the nine months ended September 30, 2008, the Company accrued $9.0 million for the potential
settlement of its derivative lawsuits. See Note 9 Commitments and Contingencies under Legal
Proceedings.
In conjunction with various acquisitions, the Company accrued for acquisition related restructuring
charges primarily related to severance and facility charges. The Company had no adjustments to its
existing acquisition
18
related restructuring reserves for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, and recorded
adjustments of $0.1 million and $0.4 million to its acquisition related restructuring reserves for
facility related charges in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007, respectively.
In connection with a past acquisition, the Company recorded bonus obligations of $0.3 million and
$0.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007, respectively.
In the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007, the Company incurred nil and $6.0 million,
respectively, in professional fees for the costs of external service providers used in the
completion of its internal stock option investigation.
On March 12, 2007, the Company commenced a tender offer to amend certain options granted under the
Juniper Networks, Inc. Amended & Restated 1996 Stock Plan and the Juniper Networks, Inc. 2000
Nonstatutory Stock Option Plan that had original exercise prices per share that were less than the
fair market value per share of the common stock underlying the option on the options grant date,
as determined by the Company for financial accounting purposes. Under this tender offer, employees
subject to taxation in the United States and Canada had the opportunity to increase their strike
price on affected options to the appropriate fair market value per share on the date of grant so as
to avoid unfavorable tax consequences under United States Internal Revenue Code Section 409A or
applicable Canadian tax laws and regulations. In exchange for increasing the strike price of these
options, the Company committed to make a cash payment to employees participating in the offer so as
to make employees whole for the incremental strike price as compared to their original option
exercise price. In connection with the offer, the Company amended options to purchase 4.3 million
shares of the Companys common stock and committed to make aggregate cash payments of $7.6 million
to offer participants. The Company accrued nil and $7.6 million in the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2007, respectively.
In addition, the Company entered into a separate agreement with two executives in the three months
ended June 30, 2007, to amend their unexercised stock options covering 0.1 million shares of the
Companys common stock in order to cure the 409A issue associated with such options. As a result,
the Company committed to make aggregate cash payments of approximately $0.4 million and recorded
nil and $0.4 million for the payment liability in operating expense for the three and nine months
ended September 30, 2007, respectively.

Employee stock awards for approximately 25.5 million shares and 21.4 million shares of the
Companys common stock in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, respectively, were
outstanding, but were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because their
effect would have been anti-dilutive. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007,
approximately 3.4 million and 17.6 million shares of the Companys common stock equivalents,
respectively, were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because their
effect would have been anti-dilutive.
Note 6. Stockholders Equity
Stock Repurchase Activities
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, the Company repurchased $440.9 million
and $562.2 million, or 18.0 million and 22.7 million shares of its common stock, respectively,
under two stock repurchase programs that were authorized by its Board of Directors.
Under the $2.0 billion stock repurchase program approved in 2006 and 2007 (the 2006 Stock
Repurchase Program), the Company repurchased approximately 13.2 million shares of its common stock
at an average price of $24.52 per share for a total purchase price of $323.7 million during the
three months ended September 30, 2008, and approximately 15.4 million shares of its common stock at
an average price of $24.53 per share for a total purchase price of $376.8 million during the nine
months ended September 30, 2008. As of September 30, 2008, the Company has repurchased and retired
approximately 84.8 million shares of its common stock under the 2006 Stock Repurchase Program at an
average price of $23.58 per share, and the program has no remaining authorized funds available for
future stock repurchases.
The Board of Directors approved another $1.0 billion stock repurchase program in March 2008 (the
2008 Stock Repurchase Program). Under this program, the Company repurchased approximately 4.8
million shares of its common stock at an average price of $24.66 per share for a total purchase
price of $117.2 million during the three months ended September 30, 2008, and approximately 7.3
million shares of its common stock at an average price of $25.42 per share for a total purchase
price of $185.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2008. As of September 30, 2008,
the 2008 Stock Repurchase Program had remaining authorized funds of $814.6 million.
All shares of common stock purchased under the 2006 and 2008 Stock Repurchase Programs have been
retired. Future share repurchases under the Companys 2008 Stock Repurchase Program will be subject
to a review of the circumstances in place at the time and will be made from time to time in private
transactions or open market
20
purchases as permitted by securities laws and other legal requirements. This program may be
discontinued at any time.
Stock Option Plans
2006 Equity Incentive Plan
On May 18, 2006, the Companys stockholders adopted the Companys 2006 Equity Incentive Plan (the
2006 Plan) to enable the granting of incentive stock options, nonstatutory stock options, RSUs,
restricted stock, stock appreciation rights, performance shares, performance units, deferred stock
units and dividend equivalents to the employees and consultants of the Company. The 2006 Plan also
provides for the automatic, non-discretionary award of nonstatutory stock options to the Companys
non-employee members of the Board.
The maximum aggregate number of shares authorized under the 2006 Plan is 64,500,000 shares of
common stock, plus the addition of any shares subject to outstanding options under the Companys
Amended and Restated 1996 Stock Plan (the 1996 Plan) and the Companys 2000 Nonstatutory Stock
Option Plan (the 2000 Plan) that subsequently expired unexercised after May 18, 2006, up to a
maximum of 75,000,000 additional shares of common stock.
Options granted under the 2006 Plan have a maximum term of five to seven years from the grant date,
and generally vest and become exercisable over a four-year period. Subject to the terms of change
of control severance agreements, restricted stock, performance shares, RSUs or deferred stock units
that vest solely based on continuing employment or provision of services will vest in full no
earlier than the three-year anniversary of the grant date, or in the event vesting is based on
factors other than continued future provision of services, such awards will vest in full no earlier
than the one-year anniversary of the grant date.
The 2006 Plan provides each non-employee director an automatic grant of an option to purchase
50,000 shares of common stock upon the date on which such individual first becomes a director,
whether through election by the stockholders of the Company or appointment by the Board to fill a
vacancy (the First Option). In addition, at each of the Companys annual stockholders meetings
(i) each non-employee director who was a non-employee director on the date of the prior years
annual stockholder meeting shall be automatically granted an option to purchase 20,000 shares of
common stock, and (ii) each non-employee director who was not a non-employee director on the date
of the prior years annual stockholders meeting shall receive an option to purchase a pro-rata
portion of the 20,000 shares of the common stock determined by the time elapsed since the
individuals First Option grant (the Annual Option). The First Option vests monthly over
approximately three years from the grant date subject to the non-employee directors continuous
service on the Board. The Annual Option shall vest monthly over approximately one year from the
grant date subject to the non-employee directors continuous service on the Board. Under the 2006
Plan, options granted to non-employee directors have a maximum term of seven years.
2000 Nonstatutory Stock Option Plan
In July 2000, the Board adopted the Juniper Networks 2000 Plan. The 2000 Plan provided for the
granting of nonstatutory stock options to employees, directors and consultants. Options granted
under the 2000 Plan generally become exercisable over a four-year period beginning on the date of
grant and have a maximum term of ten years. The Company had authorized 90,901,437 shares of common
stock for issuance under the 2000 Plan. Effective May 18, 2006, additional equity awards under the
2000 Plan have been discontinued and new equity awards are being granted under the 2006 Plan.
Remaining authorized shares under the 2000 Plan that were not subject to outstanding awards as of
May 18, 2006, were canceled on May 18, 2006. The 2000 Plan will remain in effect as to outstanding
equity awards granted under the plan prior to May 18, 2006.
Amended and Restated 1996 Stock Plan
The 1996 Plan provided for the granting of incentive stock options to employees and nonstatutory
stock options to employees, directors and consultants. On November 3, 2005, the Board adopted an
amendment to the 1996 Plan to add the ability to issue RSUs under the 1996 Plan. Options granted
under the 1996 Plan generally become
21
exercisable over a four-year period beginning on the date of grant and have a maximum term of ten
years. The Company had authorized 164,623,039 shares of common stock for issuance under the 1996
Plan. Effective May 18, 2006, additional equity awards under the 1996 Plan have been discontinued
and new equity awards are being granted under the 2006 Plan. Remaining authorized shares under the
1996 Plan that were not subject to outstanding awards as of May 18, 2006 were canceled on May 18,
2006. The 1996 Plan will remain in effect as to outstanding equity awards granted under the plan
prior to May 18, 2006.
Plans Assumed Upon Acquisition
In connection with past acquisitions, the Company assumed options and restricted stock under the
stock plans of the acquired companies. The Company exchanged those options and restricted stock for
Juniper Networks options and restricted stock and, in the case of the options, authorized the
appropriate number of shares of common stock for issuance pursuant to those options. As of
September 30, 2008, there were approximately 2.8 million common shares subject to outstanding
awards under plans assumed through past acquisitions. There was no restricted stock subject to
repurchase as of September 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007. There were no restricted stock
repurchases during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007.
Equity Award Activities
In the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, the Company granted RSUs covering
approximately 0.3 million shares and 1.2 million shares, respectively, of common stock to its
employees under the 2006 Plan. The Company also granted performance share awards to eligible
executives covering up to 0.9 million and 1.5 million shares of common stock in the three and nine
months ended September 30, 2008, respectively, that generally vest from 2009 through 2012 provided
certain annual performance targets and other vesting criteria are met. RSUs generally vest over a
period of three to five years from the date of grant. Until vested, RSUs and performance share
awards do not have the voting rights of common stock and the shares underlying the awards are not
considered issued and outstanding. No restricted stock was issued in the same periods during 2008.
The Company expenses the cost of the RSUs, which is determined to be the fair market value of the
shares of the Companys common stock at the date of grant, ratably over the period during which the
restrictions lapse. The Company estimated the stock compensation expense for its performance share
awards based on the vesting criteria and only recognized stock compensation expense for the
portions of such awards for which annual targets have been set. The Company accrued stock
compensation expense of $0.5 million and $1.0 million for the three and nine months ended September
30, 2008, respectively, and $0.1 million and $0.3 million for the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2007, respectively, in connection with such performance shares. In addition to RSUs
and performance share awards, the Company also granted stock options covering approximately 3.2
million shares and 11.5 million shares of common stock under the 2006 Plan in the three and nine
months ended September 30, 2008, respectively.
Net income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, included pre-tax stock-based
compensation expense of $28.8 million and $78.9 million, respectively, related to stock options,
RSUs, performance share awards and employee stock purchases under the Companys 1999 Employee Stock
Purchase Plan reflecting the fair value recognition provisions under SFAS 123R. Net income for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2007, included pre-tax stock-based compensation expense
of $21.2 million and $68.7 million, respectively, related to stock options, RSUs, performance share
awards, and employee stock purchases reflecting the fair value recognition provisions under SFAS
123R.

As of September 30, 2008, options covering approximately 45.9 million shares of common stock were
exercisable at a weighted-average exercise price of $20.41 per share. As of December 31, 2007,
options covering approximately 44.8 million shares of common stock were exercisable at a
weighted-average exercise price of $20.01 per share.

the last trading day of the fiscal period, which was $21.07 as of September 30, 2008, and the
exercise price multiplied by the number of related options. The pre-tax intrinsic value of options
exercised, representing the difference between the fair market value of the Companys common stock
on the date of the exercise and the exercise price of each option, was $15.0 million and $62.5
million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, respectively.

Total fair value of options vested for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, was
$16.7 million and $53.8 million, respectively. As of September 30, 2008, approximately $153.6
million of unrecognized compensation cost, adjusted for estimated forfeitures, related to
non-vested stock options is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of
approximately 2.9 years.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan
In April 1999, the Board of Directors approved the adoption of the Juniper Networks 1999 Employee
Stock Purchase Plan (the 1999 Purchase Plan). The 1999 Purchase Plan permits eligible employees
to acquire shares of the Companys common stock through periodic payroll deductions of up to 10% of
base compensation. Each employee may purchase no more than 6,000 shares in any twelve-month period,
and in no event may an employee purchase more than $25,000 worth of stock, determined at the fair
market value of the shares at the time such option is granted, in one calendar year. The 1999
Purchase Plan is implemented in a series of offering periods, each six months in duration, or a
shorter period as determined by the Board. The price at which the common stock may be
24
purchased is 85% of the lesser of the fair market value of the Companys common stock on the first
or last trading day of the applicable offering period. Employees purchased approximately 0.9
million and 1.6 million shares of common stock through the 1999 Purchase Plan at an average price
of $22.13 and $22.57 per share in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, respectively.
Employees purchased approximately 0.6 million shares of common stock through the 1999 Purchase Plan
at an average price of $17.08 per share in the nine months ended September 30, 2007. There were no
employee purchases under the 1999 Purchase Plan due to the suspension of the Purchase Plan from
August 2006 through March 2007. In connection with the 1999 Purchase Plan, compensation expense of
$3.6 million and $10.2 million was recorded in operating expenses for the three and nine months
ended September 30, 2008, respectively, and $2.4 million and $4.8 million for the three and nine
months ended September 30, 2007, respectively. No compensation expense was recorded in the first
quarter of 2007 due to the temporary suspension of the 1999 Purchase Plan. As of September 30,
2008, approximately 8.7 million shares had been issued since inception and 12.3 million shares
remained available for future issuance under the 1999 Purchase Plan. The 1999 Purchase Plan will be
discontinued effective February 1, 2009.
In May 2008, the Companys stockholders approved the adoption of the Juniper Networks 2008 Employee
Stock Purchase Plan (the 2008 Purchase Plan). The 2008 Purchase Plan was adopted to replace the
1999 Purchase Plan, which will be terminated immediately following the conclusion of the offering
period ending January 30, 2009. The Board has reserved an aggregate of 12,000,000 shares of the
Companys common stock for issuance under the 2008 Purchase Plan. The 2008 Purchase Plan is
generally similar to the 1999 Purchase Plan, except that under the 2008 Purchase Plan any increases
to the number of shares reserved for issuance must be approved by the Companys stockholders. The
first offering period of the 2008 Purchase Plan will commence on the first trading day on or after
February 1, 2009.
Common Stock Reserved for Future Issuance
As of September 30, 2008, the Company had reserved an aggregate of approximately 122.0 million
shares of common stock for future issuance under its stock option plans and the 1999 Purchase Plan.
Valuation of Stock-Based Compensation
SFAS 123R requires the use of a valuation technique, such as an option-pricing model, to calculate
the fair value of stock-based awards. The Company has elected to use the Black-Scholes-Merton
option-pricing model, which incorporates various assumptions including volatility, expected life,
and risk-free interest rates. The expected volatility is based on the implied volatility of market
traded options on the Companys common stock, adjusted for other relevant factors including
historical volatility of the Companys common stock over the most recent period commensurate with
the estimated expected life of the Companys stock options. The expected life of an award is based
on historical experience and on the terms and conditions of the stock awards granted to employees,
as well as the potential effect from options that had not been exercised at the time.
Since 2006, the Company has granted stock option awards that have a maximum contractual life of
seven years from the date of grant. Prior to 2006, stock option awards generally had a ten-year
contractual life from the date of grant.
In 2007, the government of India implemented a new fringe benefit tax that applies to equity awards
granted to India taxpayers. This fringe benefit tax is payable by the issuer of the equity awards;
however, the law allows an issuer to recover from individual award holders the fringe benefit taxes
the issuer paid on their applicable equity awards. Beginning in January 2008, the Company amended
its equity award agreements for future grants made to its employees in India to provide for the
Company to be reimbursed for fringe benefit taxes paid in relation to applicable equity awards. The
Company has elected to use a Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model that incorporates a Monte
Carlo simulation to calculate the fair value of stock-based awards issued under the amended equity
award agreements. The assumptions used in this valuation are included below.

Note 7. Segments
The Companys chief operating decision maker (CODM) allocates resources and assesses performance
based on financial information by the Companys business groups. In the first quarter of 2008, the
Company realigned its organizational structure to include its Service business as a component of
the related Infrastructure or SLT business groups. Accordingly, the previously reported Service
segment has been combined into the Companys two reportable segments as follows: Infrastructure and
SLT. The Infrastructure segment includes products from the E-, M-, MX-, and T-series router product
families, EX-series switching products, as well as the circuit-to-packet products. The SLT segment
consists primarily of Firewall virtual private network (Firewall) systems and appliances, secure
sockets layer virtual private network (SSL) appliances, intrusion detection and prevention
appliances (IDP), the J-series router product family and wide area network (WAN) optimization
platforms.
The primary financial measure used by the CODM in assessing performance of the segments is segment
operating income, which includes certain cost of revenues, research and development expenses, sales
and marketing expenses, and general and administrative expenses. In the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2008, the CODM did not allocate certain miscellaneous expenses to its segments even
though such expenses were included in the Companys management operating income.
For arrangements with both Infrastructure and SLT products and services, revenue is attributed to
the segment based on the underlying purchase order, contract or sell-through report. Direct costs
and operating expenses, such as standard costs, research and development and product marketing
expenses, are generally applied to each segment. Indirect costs, such as manufacturing overhead and
other cost of sales, are allocated based on standard costs. Indirect operating expenses, such as
sales, marketing, business development, and general and administrative expenses are generally
allocated to each segment based on factors including headcount, usage and revenue. The CODM does
not allocate stock-based compensation, amortization of purchased intangible assets, impairment,
gain or loss on minority equity investments, interest income and expense, other income and expense,
income taxes, as well as certain other charges to the segments.
26
Further changes to this organizational structure may result in changes to the segments disclosed.
The Company has restated the previously reported segment revenues and segment operating results to
reflect the changes in its segments. Financial information for each segment used by the CODM is
summarized as follows (in millions):

Verizon accounted for 13.3% of the Companys net revenues for the three months ended September 30,
2008, and no single customer accounted for 10.0% or more of the Companys net revenues for the nine
months ended September 30, 2008. Nokia Siemens Networks B.V. (NSN) and its predecessor
companies accounted for 11.5%
27
and 13.5% of the Companys net revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007. The
revenue attributed to each significant customer was derived from the sale of products and services
in both segments.
The Company tracks assets by physical location. The majority of the Companys assets, including
property and equipment, were attributable to its U.S. operations as of September 30, 2008, and
December 31, 2007. Although management reviews asset information on a corporate level and allocates
depreciation expense by segment, the CODM does not review asset information on a segment basis.
Note 8. Income Taxes
The Company recorded tax provisions of $63.2 million and $45.6 million, or effective tax rates of
30% and 35%, for the three months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The Company
recorded tax provisions of $164.8 million and $104.7 million, or effective tax rates of 30% and
31%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The effective tax rates
for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, differ from the federal statutory rate of
35% primarily due to earnings in foreign jurisdictions which are subject to lower rates. The
effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007, differ from the federal
statutory rate of 35% primarily due to earnings in foreign jurisdictions which are subject to lower
rates and the federal research and development credit offset by the disallowance of stock option
charges incurred within certain jurisdictions during the three months ended September 30, 2007. The
Companys income taxes payable for federal and state purposes were reduced by the tax benefit from
employee stock option transactions. This benefit totaled $10.5 million and $29.6 million for the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, respectively, and was reflected as an increase to
additional paid-in capital.
The Company is currently under examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for the 2004 tax
year, the German tax authorities for the 2005 tax year, and the Indian tax authorities for the 2004
and 2005 tax years. Additionally, the Company has not reached final resolution with the IRS on an
adjustment it proposed for the 1999 and 2000 tax years. The Company was not under examination by
any other major jurisdictions in which the Company files its income tax returns as of September 30,
2008. Although the timing of the resolution and/or closure of any audits is highly uncertain, it is
reasonably possible that the balance of gross unrecognized tax benefits could significantly change
in the next 12 months. However, given the number of years remaining subject to examination and the
number of matters being examined, the Company is unable to estimate the range of possible
adjustments to the balance of gross unrecognized tax benefits.
The gross unrecognized tax benefits increased by approximately $10.1 million for the nine months
ended September 30, 2008, of which $8.6 million, if recognized, would affect the effective tax
rate. Interest and penalties accrued for the same period were immaterial.

Operating Leases
Juniper Networks leases its facilities under operating leases that expire at various times, the
longest of which expires in January 2017. Future minimum payments under the non-cancelable
operating leases, net of committed sublease income, totaled $225.4 million as of September 30,
2008. Rent expense for the three months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007 was $14.4 million and
$13.0 million, respectively, and $43.3 million and $35.0 million for the nine months ended
September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively.
Purchase Commitments
In order to reduce manufacturing lead times and ensure adequate component supply, contract
manufacturers utilized by the Company place non-cancelable, non-returnable (NCNR) orders for
components based on the Companys build forecasts. As of September 30, 2008, there were NCNR
component orders placed by the contract manufacturers with a value of $98.9 million. The contract
manufacturers use the components to build products based on the Companys forecasts and on purchase
orders the Company has received from customers. Generally, the Company does not own the components,
and title to the products transfers from the contract manufacturers to the Company and immediately
to the Companys customers upon delivery at a designated shipment location. If the components go
unused or the products go unsold for specified periods of time, the Company may incur carrying
charges or obsolete materials charges for components that the contract manufacturers purchased to
build products to meet the Companys forecast or customer orders. As of September 30, 2008, the
Company had accrued $28.5 million based on its estimate of such charges.
Tax Liabilities
As of September 30, 2008, the company had $82.5 million included in long-term liabilities in the
condensed consolidated balance sheet for unrecognized tax positions. At this time, the Company is
unable to make a reasonably reliable estimate of the timing and amount of payments in individual
years beyond 12 months due to uncertainties in the timing of tax audit outcomes.
Other Contractual Obligations
As of September 30, 2008, other contractual obligations consisted primarily of an indemnity-related
escrow amount of $2.3 million, a software subscription requiring payments of $5.0 million in
January 2009, and a joint development agreement requiring quarterly payments of $3.5 million to be
paid through January 2010. Additionally, in the second quarter of 2008, the Company entered into a
five year, $34.0 million data center hosting agreement which was amended in the third quarter of
2008, increasing the amounts payable under agreement to $36.4 million. As of September 30, 2008,
$28.1 million remained unpaid under the data center hosting agreement of which $1.9 million is
required to be paid by the fourth quarter of 2008. The remaining commitment under this agreement is
expected to be paid through the end of April 2013.
Guarantees
The Company enters into agreements with customers that contain indemnification provisions relating
to potential situations where claims could be alleged that the Companys products infringe the
intellectual property rights of a third party. Other guarantees or indemnification arrangements
include guarantees of product and service performance and standby letters of credit for certain
lease facilities. The Company has not recorded a liability related to these guarantee and
indemnification provisions and these guarantees and indemnification arrangements have not had any
significant impact on the Companys consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash
flows.
Legal Proceedings
The Company is subject to legal claims and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business,
such as employment or intellectual property claims, including the matters described below. The
outcome of any such matters is currently not determinable.
29
An adverse result in one or more of such matters could negatively affect the Companys results
of operations, cash balances or cash flows.
Federal Derivative Lawsuits
Between May 24, 2006 and August 17, 2006, seven purported shareholder derivative actions were filed
in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California against the Company and
certain of its current and former officers and directors. The lawsuits allege that the Companys
officers and directors either participated in illegal back-dating of stock option grants or allowed
it to happen. On October 19, 2006, the Court ordered the consolidation of these actions as In Re
Juniper Derivative Actions, No. 06-03396, and appointed as the lead plaintiffs Timothy Hill,
Employer-Teamsters Local Nos. 175 & 505 Pension Trust Fund, and Indiana State District Council of
Laborers and HOD Carriers Pension Fund. Lead plaintiffs filed a consolidated complaint on April 11,
2007. The consolidated complaint asserts causes of action for violations of federal securities
laws, violations of California securities laws, breaches of fiduciary duty, aiding and abetting
breaches of fiduciary duty, abuse of control, corporate waste, breach of contract, unjust
enrichment, gross mismanagement, and insider selling and misappropriation of information. The
consolidated complaint also demands an accounting and rescission of allegedly improper stock option
grants. The Company formed a Special Litigation Committee, consisting of directors Michael Rose and
Michael Lawrie, to determine whether it is in the best interest of Juniper Networks and its
shareholders to pursue any of the claims asserted in the derivative litigation. The Special
Litigation Committee is authorized to pursue, settle, or release such claims. The plaintiffs and
the Company have agreed in principle on a settlement of the federal derivative litigation and the
state derivative litigation discussed below, and any such settlements would require approval of the
court. The Company has accrued an aggregate of $9 million expense in connection with both of these
potential settlements. On August 26, 2008, plaintiffs filed the stipulation of settlement and a
motion for preliminary approval of the settlement. On September 8, 2008, the Court entered an Order
preliminarily approving the derivative settlement and providing for notice to shareholders. A
settlement hearing for final approval of the derivative settlement will be held on November 10,
2008.
State Derivative Lawsuits California
On May 24 and June 2, 2006, two purported shareholder derivative actions were filed in the Santa
Clara County Superior Court in the State of California against the Company and certain of its
current and former officers and directors. These two actions were consolidated as In re Juniper
Networks Derivative Litigation, No. 1:06CV064294, by order dated June 20, 2006. An amended
consolidated complaint was filed on April 9, 2007. The amended consolidated complaint alleges that
certain of the Companys current and former officers and directors either participated in illegal
back-dating of stock options or allowed it to happen. The complaint asserts causes of action for
unjust enrichment, breach of fiduciary duties, abuse of control, gross mismanagement, waste of
corporate assets, insider selling and misappropriation of information, and violations of California
securities laws. Plaintiffs also demand an accounting and rescission of allegedly improper stock
options grants, and a constructive trust of proceeds derived from allegedly illicit stock options.
The Company formed a Special Litigation Committee, consisting of directors Michael Rose and Michael
Lawrie, to determine whether it is in the best interest of Juniper Networks and its shareholders to
pursue any of the claims asserted in the derivative litigation. The Special Litigation Committee is
authorized to pursue, settle, or release such claims. The plaintiffs and the Company have agreed in
principle on a settlement of the federal derivative litigation discussed above and the state
derivative litigation and any such settlements would require approval of the court. The Company has
accrued an aggregate of $9 million expense in connection with both of these potential settlements.
Federal Securities Class Action
On July 14, 2006 and August 29, 2006, two purported class actions were filed in the Northern
District of California against the Company and certain of the Companys current and former officers
and directors. On November 20, 2006, the Court consolidated the two actions as In re Juniper
Networks, Inc. Securities Litigation, No. C06-04327-JW, and appointed the New York City Pension
Funds as lead plaintiffs. The lead plaintiffs filed a Consolidated Class Action Complaint on
January 12, 2007, and filed an Amended Consolidated Class Action Complaint on April 9, 2007. The
Amended Consolidated Complaint alleges that the defendants violated federal securities laws by
manipulating stock option grant dates to coincide with low stock prices and issuing false and
misleading statements
30
including, among others, incorrect financial statements due to the improper accounting of stock
option grants. The Amended Consolidated Complaint asserts claims for violations of the Securities
Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 on behalf of all persons who purchased or
otherwise acquired Juniper Networks publicly traded securities from July 12, 2001, through and
including August 10, 2006. On June 7, 2007, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss certain of the
claims, and a hearing was held on September 10, 2007. On March 31, 2008, the Court issued an order
granting in part and denying in part the defendants motion to dismiss. The order dismissed with
prejudice plaintiffs section 10(b) claim to the extent it was based on challenged statements made
before July 14, 2001. The order also dismissed, with leave to amend, plaintiffs section 10(b)
claim against Pradeep Sindhu. The order upheld all of plaintiffs remaining claims.
Calamore Proxy Statement Action
On March 28, 2007, an action titled Jeanne M. Calamore v. Juniper Networks, Inc., et al., No.
C-07-1772-JW, was filed by Jeanne M. Calamore in the Northern District of California against the
Company and certain of the Companys current and former officers and directors. The complaint
alleges that the proxy statement for the Companys 2006 Annual Meeting of Stockholders contained
various false and misleading statements in that it failed to disclose stock option backdating
information. As a result, plaintiff seeks preliminary and permanent injunctive relief with respect
to the Companys 2006 Equity Incentive Plan, including seeking to invalidate the plan and all
equity awards granted and grantable thereunder. On May 21, 2007, the Company filed a motion to
dismiss and plaintiff filed a motion for preliminary injunction. On July 19, 2007, the Court issued
an order denying plaintiffs motion for a preliminary injunction and dismissing the complaint in
its entirety with leave to amend. Plaintiff filed an amended complaint on August 27, 2007, and the
defendants filed a motion to dismiss on October 9, 2007. On August 13, 2008, the Court issued an
Order granting defendants motion to dismiss with prejudice, and entered final judgment in favor of
defendants. On September 9, 2008, plaintiff filed a Notice of Appeal in the United States Court of
Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. Plaintiffs opening appellate brief is due December 26, 2008, and
defendants answering brief is due January 26, 2009.
IPO Allocation Case
In December 2001, a class action complaint was filed in the United States District Court for the
Southern District of New York against the Goldman Sachs Group, Inc., Credit Suisse First Boston
Corporation, FleetBoston Robertson Stephens, Inc., Royal Bank of Canada (Dain Rauscher Wessels), SG
Cowen Securities Corporation, UBS Warburg LLC (Warburg Dillon Read LLC), Chase (Hambrecht & Quist
LLC), J.P. Morgan Chase & Co., Lehman Brothers, Inc., Salomon Smith Barney, Inc., Merrill Lynch,
Pierce, Fenner & Smith, Incorporated (collectively, the Underwriters), Juniper Networks and
certain of Juniper Networks officers. This action was brought on behalf of purchasers of the
Companys common stock in its initial public offering in June 1999 and the Companys secondary
offering in September 1999.
Specifically, among other things, this complaint alleged that the prospectus pursuant to which
shares of common stock were sold in the Companys initial public offering and the Companys
subsequent secondary offering contained certain false and misleading statements or omissions
regarding the practices of the Underwriters with respect to their allocation of shares of common
stock in these offerings and their receipt of commissions from customers related to such
allocations. Various plaintiffs have filed actions asserting similar allegations concerning the
initial public offerings of approximately 300 other issuers. These various cases pending in the
Southern District of New York have been coordinated for pretrial proceedings as In re Initial
Public Offering Securities Litigation, 21 MC 92. In April 2002, plaintiffs filed a consolidated
amended complaint in the action against the Company, alleging violations of the Securities Act of
1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Defendants in the coordinated proceeding filed
motions to dismiss. In October 2002, the Companys officers were dismissed from the case without
prejudice pursuant to a stipulation. On February 19, 2003, the court granted in part and denied in
part the motion to dismiss, but declined to dismiss the claims against the Company.
In June 2004, a stipulation of settlement and release of claims against the issuer defendants,
including the Company, was submitted to the court for approval. On August 31, 2005, the court
preliminarily approved the settlement. In December 2006, the appellate court overturned the
certification of classes in the six test cases that were selected by
31
the underwriter defendants and plaintiffs in the coordinated proceedings (the action involving the
Company is not one of the six test cases). Because class certification was a condition of the
settlement, it was unlikely that the settlement would receive final Court approval. On June 25,
2007, the Court entered an order terminating the proposed settlement based upon a stipulation among
the parties to the settlement. Plaintiffs have filed amended master allegations and amended
complaints in the six focus cases. On March 26, 2008, the Court largely denied the defendants
motion to dismiss the amended complaints in the six test cases.
16(b) Demand
On October 3, 2007, a purported Juniper Networks shareholder filed a complaint for violation of
Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which prohibits short-swing trading, against
the Companys IPO underwriters. The complaint, Vanessa Simmonds v. The Goldman Sachs Group, et al.,
Case No. C07-015777, in District Court for the Western District of Washington, seeks the recovery
of short-swing profits. The Company is named as a nominal defendant. No recovery is sought from the
Company in this matter.
IRS Notices of Proposed Adjustments
In 2007, the IRS opened an examination of the Companys U.S. federal income tax and employment tax
returns for the 2004 fiscal year. Subsequently, the IRS extended their examination of the Companys
employment tax returns to include fiscal years 2005 and 2006. The IRS has not yet concluded its
examinations of these returns. In September 2008, as part of its on-going audit of the U.S. federal
income tax return, the IRS issued a Notice of Proposed Adjustment (NOPA) regarding the Companys
business credits. The Company is considering its response to the proposed adjustment by the IRS.
The Company believes that is has adequately provided for any reasonably foreseeable outcome related
to this proposed adjustment and the ultimate resolution of this matter is unlikely to have a
material effect on the Companys consolidated financial position.
The IRS has concluded an audit of the Companys federal income tax returns for fiscal years 1999
and 2000. During 2004, the Company received a NOPA from the IRS. While the final resolution of the
issues raised in the NOPA is uncertain, the Company does not believe that the outcome of this
matter will have a material adverse effect on the Companys consolidated financial position or
results of operations. The Company is also under routine examination by certain state and non-US
tax authorities. The Company believes that it has adequately provided for any reasonably
foreseeable outcome related to these audits.
Note 10. Related Party Transactions
The Company reimburses its Chairman of the Board of Directors and former CEO, Mr. Scott Kriens, for
ordinary operating costs relating to his use of a personal aircraft for business purposes up to a
maximum amount per year. The Company incurred $0.1 million and $0.2 million in related expenses for
the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, respectively, and $0.1 million and $0.2 million
in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007, respectively.
Note 11. Subsequent Event
Stock Repurchases
Subsequent to September 30, 2008, through the filing of this report, the Company repurchased and
retired approximately 1.1 million shares of its common stock for approximately $21.0 million under
the 2008 Stock Repurchase program at an average purchase price of $18.73 per share. The Companys
2008 Stock Repurchase Program had remaining authorized funds of $793.6 million as of the report
filing date. Purchases under the Companys stock repurchase programs are subject to a review of the
circumstances in place at the time and will be made from time to time as permitted by securities
laws and other legal requirements.

Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (Report), including the Managements Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, contains forward-looking statements regarding
future events and the future results of the Company that are based on current expectations,
estimates, forecasts, and projections about the industry in which the Company operates and the
beliefs and assumptions of the management of the Company. Words such as expects, anticipates,
targets, goals, projects, intends, plans, believes, seeks, estimates, variations of
such words, and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These
forward-looking statements are only predictions and are subject to risks, uncertainties and
assumptions that are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual results may differ materially and
adversely from those expressed in any forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause or
contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed in this Report
under the section entitled Risk Factors in Item 1A of Part II and elsewhere, and in other reports
the Company files with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), specifically the most recent
Annual Report on Form 10-K. The Company undertakes no obligation to revise or update publicly any
forward-looking statements for any reason.
The following discussion is based upon our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
included elsewhere in this report, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles. In the course of operating our business, we routinely make
decisions as to the timing of the payment of invoices, the collection of receivables, the
manufacturing and shipment of products, the fulfillment of orders, the purchase of supplies, and
the building of inventory and spare parts, among other matters. Each of these decisions has some
impact on the financial results for any given period. In making these decisions, we consider
various factors including contractual obligations, customer satisfaction, competition, internal and
external financial targets and expectations, and financial planning objectives. The preparation of
these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported
amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingencies. On
an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to sales returns, pricing
credits, warranty costs, allowance for doubtful accounts, impairment of long-term assets,
especially goodwill and intangible assets, contract manufacturer exposures for carrying and
obsolete material charges, assumptions used in the valuation of stock-based compensation, and
litigation. We base our estimates on historical experience and on 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 values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from
other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or
conditions.

Net revenues: Our net revenues increased in the three and nine months ended September 30,
2008, compared to the same periods in 2007, primarily due to the growing acceptance of our
router and firewall products and services in the service provider and enterprise markets as
well as the timing of revenue recognition for previously shipped products from certain
arrangements. Net revenues increased in each of our three geographic regions, specifically in
the Americas and the Asia Pacific region, in the three and nine months ended September 30,
2008, compared to the same periods in 2007. |
|
|
|
Operating Margin: Our operating income increased in the three and nine months ended September
30, 2008, compared to the same periods in 2007. In addition, our operating margins as a
percentage of net revenues increased in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008,
compared to the same periods in 2007. This change was, in large part, due to the growth in
revenue and a decrease in operating expense as a percentage of net revenues, which was
attributable to our efforts to better manage expenses and improve efficiencies in the three
and nine months ended September 30, 2008, compared to the same periods in 2007. |
|
|
|
Net Income and Net Income Per Share: The increase in net income in the three and nine months
ended September 30, 2008, compared to the same periods in 2007, is primarily due to the growth
in revenue and the reduction in operating expenses. These increases in operating margin were
partially offset by lower net interest and other income along with higher income tax expense
in the 2008 periods. |
|
|
|
Other Financial Highlights: Total deferred revenue increased $49.3 million in the nine months
ended September 30, 2008, primarily due to the renewal of annual maintenance arrangements.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2008, we generated a net increase of $62.4 million
in cash and cash equivalents, primarily resulting from $660.1 million in cash provided by our
operating activities, which was offset by cash used in investing activities and financing
activities, including the repurchase of $562.2 million of our common stock. |
Significant Events
Business and Market Environment
We design, develop and sell products and services that together provide our customers with
high-performance network infrastructure that creates responsive and trusted environments for
accelerating the deployment of services and applications over a single Internet Protocol
(IP)-based network. We serve the high-performance networking requirements of global service
providers, enterprises, governments and research and education institutions that view the network
as critical to their success. High-performance networking is designed to provide fast, reliable and
secure access to applications and services at scale. We offer a high-performance network
infrastructure that includes IP
34
routing, Ethernet switching, security and application acceleration solutions, as well as
partnerships designed to extend the value of the network and worldwide services and support
designed to optimize customer investments.
In the first nine months of our 2008 fiscal year, we continued to deliver new and innovative,
high-performance network infrastructure solutions. We entered the enterprise switching market,
through the introduction of the EX-series, a family of Ethernet switches that leverage the
operational simplicity and carrier-class reliability of our JUNOS® software. We also introduced a
new category of extensible networking and security products with our SRX series dynamic services
gateways. In addition, we introduced a new family of intrusion detection and prevention (IDP)
appliances that deliver up to 10 Gbps real-world throughput and performance to enable deployments
in the network core, the integration of services, including Firewall and chassis clustering, into
JUNOS software for implementation on the J-series services router and the Security Threat Response
Manager (STRM), a platform capable of providing businesses with a centralized scalable and
effective way to log and manage a rapidly evolving threat landscape. We also announced an advanced
mobile IP/Multi Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) solution portfolio with the new BX 7000
multi-access gateway router for the cell site, M-series circuit emulation physical interface cards
for the aggregation site and a suite of software features designed to simplify deployment,
provisioning and management of mobile backhaul networks. In addition, we introduced the JCS 1200,
the industrys first high-performance control plane scaling platform.
In the first nine months of our 2008 fiscal year, we also delivered new enhancements to existing
solutions to help customers maximize their network infrastructure investments and lower their
overall total cost of ownership. We expanded our Network and Security Manager (NSM) to deliver a
centralized management solution for routing, security and switching, enabling customers to
consolidate and simplify the management of their network infrastructure. We announced enhancements
to our Access Control Solution, to deliver enhanced scalability and performance, with centralized
access policy management via NSM, helping customers cost-effectively achieve comprehensive network
visibility with broad enforcement capabilities. We introduced the next generation of our WXC
application acceleration platforms to deliver a more scalable, modular and cost-effective approach
to delivering fast and consistent application response across the wide area network (WAN). In
addition, we announced three new line card families for the MX-series Ethernet Services Routers.
Changes to Segments
Beginning in January 2008, we realigned our reporting structure which resulted in two segments:
Infrastructure and SLT. The previously reported Service segment has been combined into the
following two segments:
|
|
Infrastructure: Our Infrastructure segment includes products and services related to the E-,
M-, MX- and T-series router product families, EX-series switching products, as well as the
circuit-to-packet products. |
|
|
|
SLT: Our SLT segment consists primarily of products and services related to our integrated
collection of security measures designed to prevent unauthorized access to computer networks
(Firewall) systems and appliances, secure sockets layer virtual private network (SSL)
appliances, IDP appliances, the J-series router product family and WAN optimization platforms. |
Stock Repurchase Activity
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, we repurchased $440.9 million and $562.2
million or 18.0 million and 22.7 million shares of our common stock, respectively, under two stock
repurchase programs that were authorized by our Board of Directors.
Under the $2.0 billion stock repurchase program approved in 2006 and 2007 (the 2006 Stock
Repurchase Program), we repurchased approximately 13.2 million shares of our common stock at an
average price of $24.52 per share for a total purchase price of $323.7 million during the three
months ended September 30, 2008, and approximately 15.4 million shares of our common stock at an
average price of $24.53 per share for a total purchase price of $376.8 million during the nine
months ended September 30, 2008. As of September 30, 2008, we have repurchased and retired
approximately 84.8 million shares of our common stock under the 2006 Stock Repurchase
35
Program at an average price of $23.58 per share, and the program had no remaining authorized funds
available for future stock repurchases.
The Board of Directors approved another $1.0 billion stock repurchase program in March 2008 (the
2008 Stock Repurchase Program). Under this program, we repurchased approximately 4.8 million
shares of our common stock at an average price of $24.66 per share for a total purchase price of
$117.2 million during the three months ended September 30, 2008, and approximately 7.3 million
shares of our common stock at an average price of $25.42 per share for a total purchase price of
$185.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2008. As of September 30, 2008, the 2008
Stock Repurchase Program had remaining authorized funds of $814.6 million.
Subsequent to September 30, 2008, through the filing of this report, we have repurchased and
retired approximately 1.1 million shares of our common stock for approximately $21.0 million under
the 2008 Stock Repurchase Program at an average price of $18.73 per share. The 2008 Stock
Repurchase Program had remaining authorized funds of $793.6 million as of the report filing date.
All shares of common stock purchased under the 2006 and 2008 Stock Repurchase Programs have been
retired. Future share repurchases under our 2008 Stock Repurchase Program will be subject to a
review of the circumstances in place at the time and will be made from time to time in private
transactions or open market purchases as permitted by securities laws and other legal requirements.
This program may be discontinued at any time.
Backlog
Our sales are made primarily pursuant to purchase orders under framework agreements with our
customers. At any given time, we have orders for products that have not been shipped and for
services that have not yet been performed for various reasons. Because we believe industry practice
would allow customers to cancel or change orders with limited advance notice prior to shipment or
performance, as well as our own history of allowing such changes and cancellations, we do not
consider this backlog to be firm and do not believe our backlog information is necessarily
indicative of future revenue.
Manufacturing
Most of our manufacturing, repair and supply chain operations are outsourced to independent
contract manufacturers. Accordingly, most of our costs of revenues consist of payments to our
independent contract manufacturers for product costs. The independent contract manufacturers
produce our products using design specifications, quality assurance programs and standards that we
establish. Our independent contract manufacturers manufacture our products primarily in Canada,
China, Malaysia, and the United States. We have employees in our manufacturing and operations
organization who manage relationships with our contract manufacturers, manage our supply chain, and
monitor product testing and quality. We generally do not own the components and title to products
transfers from the contract manufacturers to us and immediately to our customers upon shipment.
The contract manufacturers procure components based on our build forecasts. If actual component
usage is lower than our forecasts, we may be, and have been in the past, liable for carrying or
obsolete material charges.
In recent years, an increasing amount of our product has been manufactured in Asia, and we
anticipate that a larger percentage of our products will be produced outside the United States and
Canada in the future. Our contracts generally provide for passage of title and risk of loss at the
designated point of shipment to the customer. The manufacturing of products in Asia for shipment to
customers in Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) and the Americas resulted in additional
shipment logistics, freight and timing issues for us and those customers. In an ongoing effort to
balance our and the customers needs, we have made changes on occasion to the payment of freight
and the point of shipment with respect to products shipped from Asia. These changes impact shipping
costs and the timing of revenue recognition of the affected shipments.
36
Nature of Expenses
Employee related costs have historically been the primary driver of our operating expenses and we
expect this trend to continue. These costs include items such as wages, commissions, bonuses,
vacation, benefits, stock-based compensation, and travel. We increased our headcount by 21% to
6,830 employees as of September 30, 2008, from 5,661 employees as of September 30, 2007, primarily
in the research and development, sales, and customer service organizations. The headcount growth
has increased primarily in regions with lower operating costs per employee.
Stock-based compensation and related payroll tax expense was $29.1 million and $81.5 million in the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, respectively, and $25.6 million and $75.1 million
in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007, respectively. As of September 30, 2008,
approximately $153.6 million of unrecognized stock-based compensation cost, adjusted for estimated
forfeitures, related to non-vested stock options is expected to be recognized over a
weighted-average period of approximately 2.9 years. In addition, approximately $72.2 million of
unrecognized stock-based compensation cost, adjusted for estimated forfeitures, related to
non-vested RSUs and non-vested performance share awards is expected to be recognized over a
weighted-average period of approximately 2.6 years.
Facility and information technology departmental costs are allocated to other departments based on
usage and headcount, respectively. Facility and information technology related costs increased by
$5.2 million and $42.4 million in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, respectively,
compared to the same periods in 2007 due to an increase in headcount and the continued build-out of
our domestic and international development and test centers as well as applications to support our
internal operations. Facility and information technology related headcount was 263 employees as of
September 30, 2008, compared to 223 employees as of September 30, 2007. We expect to further invest
in our company-wide information technology infrastructure as we implement our operational
excellence initiatives.
Although our revenue transactions are primarily denominated in U.S. dollars, operating expenses are
denominated in U.S. dollars, the British Pound, the Euro, Indian Rupee, and Japanese Yen as well as
other foreign currencies. Changes in related currency exchange rates may affect our operating
results. We use foreign currency forward and/or option contracts to hedge certain forecasted
foreign currency transactions relating to operating expenses. These derivatives are designated as
cash flow hedges and have maturities of less than one year. The effective portion of the
derivatives gain or loss is initially reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive
income and, upon occurrence of the forecasted transaction, is subsequently reclassified into the
operating expense line item to which the hedged transaction relates. Any ineffectiveness of the
hedging instruments is reported in interest and other income, net on our condensed consolidated
statements of operations. The increase in expenses including cost of revenues, research and
development, sales and marketing, and general and administrative expenses, due to foreign currency
fluctuation, was approximately 2% in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, compared
with the same periods in 2007.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting
principles requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets, liabilities and equity at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of
net revenues, costs and expenses in the reporting period. We regularly evaluate our estimates and
assumptions. We base our estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and
various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of
which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that
are not readily apparent from other sources. Our actual results may differ materially and adversely
from managements estimates. To the extent there are material differences between our estimates and
the actual results, our future operating results will be affected.
37
We believe the following critical accounting policies require us to make significant judgments and
estimates in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements:
|
|
Revenue Recognition; |
|
|
|
Contract Manufacturer Liabilities; |
|
|
|
Warranty Reserve; |
|
|
|
Goodwill and Purchased Intangible Assets; |
|
|
|
Stock-Based Compensation; |
|
|
|
Income Taxes; and |
|
|
|
Loss Contingencies. |
Fair Value Accounting
In February 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the FASB) issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial
Liabilities-including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (SFAS 159). SFAS 159 expands the use
of fair value accounting to eligible financial assets and liabilities. SFAS 159 is effective
beginning on January 1, 2008. We evaluated our existing financial instruments and elected not to
adopt the fair value option on our financial instruments. As a result, SFAS 159 did not have any
impact on our consolidated financial condition or results of operations as of and for the three and
nine months ended September 30, 2008. However, because the SFAS 159 election is based on an
instrument-by-instrument election at the time we first recognize an eligible item or enter into an
eligible firm commitment, we may decide to exercise the option on new items when business reasons
support doing so in the future which may have a significant impact on our operating results.
Management believes that there have been no significant changes during the three and nine months
ended September 30, 2008, to the items that we disclosed as our critical accounting policies and
estimates in Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
See Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated
Financial Statements in Item 1, Part I of this Form 10-Q, for a full description of recent
accounting pronouncements, including the expected dates of adoption and estimated effects on our
consolidated results of operations and financial condition, which is incorporated herein by

Our net product revenues increased in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, compared
to the same periods in 2007, primarily as a result of increased sales of both Infrastructure and
SLT solutions to the service provider and enterprise markets. In particular, we had success in
selling our Infrastructure products to service providers who are adopting next generation
networking (NGN) IP networks, which are designed for higher capacity and efficiency to help
reduce total operating costs and to be able to offer multiple services over a single network.
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, our new product releases and further
expansion into emerging markets contributed to the increase in total net product revenues for those
periods. In the third quarter of 2008, we also experienced increased revenue from the enterprise
market primarily due to the sales of Infrastructure solutions. Our net service revenues increased
in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, compared to the same periods in 2007,
primarily due to the increase in maintenance revenue from our expanding installed base.

Prior period amounts have been reclassified to reflect the 2008 segment structure, which now
includes service revenue in the Infrastructure and SLT segments. |
Infrastructure Product
For the three months ended September 30, 2008, the increase in Infrastructure product revenue was
primarily attributable to revenue growth from our MX- and E-series product families in both the
service provider and enterprise markets due to our customers increased demand for network
infrastructure solutions. To a lesser extent, our T-series products also contributed to the revenue
growth in the third quarter of 2008 and our EX-series products, which were introduced in the first
quarter of 2008, continued to grow in the third quarter of 2008. For the nine months ended
September 30, 2008, the increase was primarily due to growth from MX-, M- and T-series product
families as both our service provider and enterprise customers continued to build out their
networks as their bandwidth requirements increased. E-series product revenue increased during the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, primarily as a result of the timing of revenue
recognition for previously shipped products from certain arrangements compared to revenue
recognized in the same periods in 2007. In the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, we
experienced sales growth both in the service provider and enterprise markets. From a geographical
perspective, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, we experienced revenue
growth in all three regions, with particular strength in the Americas region.
39
We track Infrastructure chassis revenue units and ports shipped to analyze customer trends and
indicate areas of potential network growth. Most of our Infrastructure product platforms are
modular, with the chassis serving as the base of the platform. Each chassis has a certain number of
slots that are available to be populated with components we refer to as modules or interfaces. The
modules are the components through which the platform receives incoming packets of data from a
variety of transmission media. The physical connection between a transmission medium and a module
is referred to as a port. The number of ports on a module varies widely depending on the
functionality and throughput offered by the module. Chassis revenue units represent the number of
chassis on which revenue was recognized during the period. The following table shows Infrastructure
revenue units and ports shipped:

Infrastructure chassis revenue units and product revenue increased in the three and nine months
ended September 30, 2008, compared to the same periods in 2007, primarily due to the product mix
that favored higher margin chassis revenue units which was driven by bandwidth demand as customers
are seeking to expand capabilities in their networks and to offer differentiating feature-rich
multi-play services that allow them to generate new revenue sources. The port shipments also
increased in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, compared to the same periods in
2007, primarily due to the increase in the overall number of chassis revenue units from richly
configured T- and M-series router products shipped during the 2008 periods.
Infrastructure Service
The increase in Infrastructure service revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30,
2008, was primarily due to an increase in our installed base of equipment being serviced and the
timing of revenue recognition for previously shipped products from certain arrangements. A majority
of our service revenue is earned from customers that purchase our products and enter into service
contracts for support service. We also experienced increased professional service revenue due to
consulting projects.

Prior period amounts have been reclassified to reflect the 2008 segment structure, which now
includes service revenue in the Infrastructure and SLT segments. |
SLT Product
We experienced increases in SLT product revenue primarily from an increase in revenue from branch
and high-end Firewall products as well as J-series products in the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2008, compared to the same periods in 2007. These increases were partially offset by
a decline in revenues from DX and WX products. The integrated systems introduced prior to 2007,
such as the SSG Firewall products, gained further traction in the market place with
revenue from these product lines growing in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008,
compared to same periods in 2007. In the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, we
experienced
40
sales growth both in the service provider and enterprise markets. Geographically, revenues
increased in all three regions, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008 with
strength in the EMEA and Asia Pacific (APAC) regions and to a lesser extent in the Americas
region.

SLT revenue units decreased while product revenue increased in the three months ended September 30,
2008, compared to the same period in 2007, primarily due to the product mix that favored high-end
Firewall and J-series products. Both SLT revenue units and product revenue increased in the nine
months ended September 30, 2008, compared to the same period in 2007, primarily due to the product
mix that favored higher margin products.
In January 2008, we announced a plan to phase out our DX product line. These products will be
supported until 2013. We do not expect this plan to have a material impact on our condensed
consolidated results of operations, cash flows, and financial condition.
SLT Service
The increase in SLT service revenue was primarily due to an increase in our installed base of
equipment being serviced. A majority of our service revenue is earned from customers that purchase
our products and enter into service contracts for support service.

Net revenues in the Americas region increased in absolute dollars and as a percentage of total net
revenue in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, compared to the same periods in
2007, primarily due to growth in revenue from both the service provider and enterprise markets and
the timing of revenue recognition for previously shipped products from certain arrangements, as our
customers continued to focus on increasing network performance, reliability and scale. In the
United States, net revenues increased in absolute dollars and as a percentage of total net revenue,
in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, compared to the same periods in 2007,
primarily due to growth in revenue from both the service provider and enterprise markets and the
timing of revenue recognition for previously shipped products from certain arrangements.
Net revenues in EMEA increased in absolute dollars in the three and nine months ended September 30,
2008, compared to the same periods in 2007, primarily due to revenue growth in emerging markets in
the Middle East and Eastern Europe which was driven by service provider network build-outs as a
result of bandwidth demand and growth in the enterprise market. Net revenue in EMEA as a percentage
of total net revenue decreased in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, compared to
the same periods in 2007, primarily due to the relative strength of the Americas region.
41
Net revenues in APAC increased in absolute dollars in the three months ended September 30, 2008,
compared to the same period in 2007, primarily due to strength in Japan and the Association of
Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) countries, which was driven by bandwidth demand as well as our
customers deployment of routing platforms for their next-generation networks. Net revenues in APAC
as a percentage of total net revenues decreased slightly in the three months ended September 30,
2008, compared to the same period in 2007, primarily due to the relative strength of the Americas
region. Net revenues in APAC increased in absolute dollars and as a percentage of total net revenue
in the nine months ended September 30, 2008, compared to the same period in 2007, primarily due to
strength in Japan, China, and the ASEAN countries partially offset by a decrease in revenue from
Australia.
Net Revenues by Markets and Customers
We sell our high-performance network products and service offerings from both the Infrastructure
and SLT segments to two primary
markets service providers and enterprise. The service provider
market includes wireline, wireless, and cable operators as well as major internet content and
application providers. The enterprise market represents businesses; federal, state and local
governments; and research and education institutions. During the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2008, the service provider market accounted for 72.7% and 73.0%, respectively, of our
total net revenues, and the enterprise market accounted for 27.3% and 27.0%, respectively, of our
total net revenues. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007, the service provider
market accounted for 71.5% and 71.7%, respectively, of our total net revenues, and the enterprise
market accounted for 28.5% and 28.3%, respectively, of our total net revenues. Net revenues to the
service provider market increased by 31% and 33% during the three and nine months ended September
30, 2008, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2007. Net revenues to the enterprise market
increased by 24% and 25% during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, compared to the
same periods in 2007.
Verizon accounted for 13.3% of our net revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2008, and
no single customer accounted for 10.0% or more of our net revenues for the nine months ended
September 30, 2008. NSN and its predecessor companies accounted for greater than 10.0% of our net
revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007.

Cost of product revenues increased in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, compared
to the same periods in 2007, while product gross margin slightly decreased in the three months
ended September 30, 2008, and increased in the nine months ended September 30, 2008, compared to
the same periods of 2007.
The cost of product revenues increased in absolute dollars in the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2008, compared to the same periods in 2007, primarily due to our increase in product
revenues, which resulted in higher product costs. The slight decrease in product gross margin as a
percentage of product revenues in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, compared to
same periods in 2007, is primarily attributable to changes in the product mix due to the timing of
revenue recognition for previously shipped lower margin E-series products from certain
arrangements, partially offset by growth in our higher-margin T- and M-series product families
within our Infrastructure segment and increased sales of our higher margin Firewall and J-series
products within our SLT segment.
42
As of September 30, 2008, and 2007, we had 220 and 181 employees, respectively, in our
manufacturing and operations organization that primarily manage relationships with our contract
manufacturers, manage our supply chain, and monitor and manage product testing and quality.
The increases in cost of service revenues and service gross margin were commensurate with the
growth in revenue in absolute dollars due to the timing of revenue recognition for previously
shipped products from certain arrangements and the timing of our spares components purchases.
Personnel related charges, consisting of salaries, bonus, fringe benefits expenses, stock-based
compensation expenses, and other employee-related expenses increased $3.2 million and $15.6 million
in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, respectively, primarily due to a 12%
increase in headcount in the customer service organization, from 718 to 805 employees, to expand
our world-wide operations. Our outside service expense also increased in the 2008 periods primarily
to support the expanding installed equipment base. Additionally, facilities and information
technology expenses related to cost of service revenues increased in connection with the growth of
service business as a portion of our overall operations.

The increase in research and development expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30,
2008, was primarily due to strategic initiatives to expand our product portfolio and maintain our
technological advantage over competitors. Research and development expenses primarily consist of
personnel related expenses and new product development costs. Personnel related charges, consisting
of salaries, bonus, fringe benefits expenses, stock-based compensation expenses, and other
employee-related expenses increased $14.1 million and $50.5 million in the three and nine months
ended September 30, 2008, respectively, primarily due to a 25% increase in headcount in our
engineering organization, from 2,460 to 3,063 employees, to support product innovation intended to
capture anticipated future network infrastructure growth and opportunities. Outside consulting and
other development expense also increased to support our product innovation initiatives.
Additionally, facilities and information technology expenses related to research and development
expenses increased to support these engineering efforts.
The increase in sales and marketing expenses was primarily due to increases in personnel related
expenses and marketing expenses. Personnel related charges, consisting of salaries, commissions,
bonus, fringe benefits, stock-based compensation expenses, and other employee-related expenses
increased $17.3 million and $59.7 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008,
respectively, primarily due to a 19% increase in headcount in our worldwide sales and marketing
organizations, from 1,805 to 2,139 employees. Included in the personnel charges was an increase in
commission expense of $5.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, compared to the
same period in 2007, due to our higher net revenues. We also increased our investment in corporate
and channel marketing efforts from the prior year. As our sales force grew, we also increased
facilities and information
43
technology expense related to the sales and marketing organizations in the three months and nine
months ended September 30, 2008, compared to the same periods in 2007.
The increase in general and administrative expenses was primarily due to an increase in personnel
related expenses and outside professional services. Personnel related charges, consisting of
salaries, bonus, fringe benefits, stock-based compensation expenses, and other employee-related
expenses increased $1.9 million and $8.5 million in the three and nine months ended September 30,
2008, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2007, primarily due to a 24% increase in
headcount in our worldwide general and administrative functions, from 274 to 340 employees, to
support the overall growth of the business. Outside professional service fees increased in the
three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, compared to the same periods in 2007, as a result
of increased legal fees and business processes re-engineering costs. Additionally, facilities and
information technology related to general and administrative expenses increased to support our
growing business.
Research and development and sales and marketing expenses each decreased as a percentage of net
revenues in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, while general and administrative
expenses remained flat and decreased as a percentage of net revenues in the three and nine months
ended September 30, 2008, compared to the same periods in 2007, primarily due to our focused
execution and cost control initiatives.
Amortization of purchased intangible assets decreased in the three and nine months ended September
30, 2008, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2007, primarily due to a decrease in
amortization expense as certain purchased intangible assets became fully amortized during the
second quarter of 2008. This decrease was partially offset by the inclusion of an impairment charge
of $5.0 million, for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, as a result of the phase out of our
DX products.
Other charges, net, decreased in the three months ended September 30, 2008, primarily due to the
absence of a gain from a litigation settlement that occurred in the same period a year ago. See
Note 4 Other Financial Information under Other Charges, Net in Notes to Condensed Consolidated
Financial Statements in Item I of this Form 10-Q, for more information.

The decrease in interest and other income, net, was primarily due to lower interest rates in the
2008 period as compared to a year ago.
The gain (loss) on minority equity investments decreased in the nine months ended September 30,
2008, compared to the same period in 2007. No gain or loss was recorded in the three months ended
September 30, 2008, and 2007. In the nine months ended September 30, 2008, we recorded a loss on
two of our minority equity investments. In the nine months ended September 30, 2007, we realized a
gain from one of our minority equity investments that completed an initial public offering.
We recorded tax provisions of $63.2 million and $45.6 million, or effective tax rates of 30% and
35%, for the three months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. We recorded tax
provisions of $164.8 million and $104.7 million, or effective tax rates of 30% and 31%, for the
nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The effective tax rates for the three
and nine months ended September 30, 2008, differ from the federal
44
statutory rate of 35% primarily due to earnings in foreign jurisdictions which are subject to lower
rates. The effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007, differ from
the federal statutory rate of 35% primarily due to earnings in foreign jurisdictions which are
subject to lower rates and the federal research and development credit offset by the disallowance
of stock option charges incurred within certain jurisdictions during the three months ended
September 30, 2007. The Companys income taxes payable for federal and state purposes were reduced
by the tax benefit from employee stock option transactions. This benefit totaled $10.5 million and
$29.6 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, respectively, and was
reflected as an increase to additional paid-in capital.
The Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008 has provided an extension of the federal research
and development (R&D) credit provisions that had previously expired on December 31, 2007. The
benefit from this extended provision, which took effect on October 3, 2008, will be reflected in
the Companys tax provision for the quarter ending December 31, 2008.
Our future effective tax rates could be subject to volatility or adversely affected by earnings
being lower than anticipated in countries where we have lower statutory rates and higher than
anticipated earnings in countries where we have higher statutory rates; by changes in the valuation
of our deferred tax assets and liabilities; by expiration of or lapses in the R&D tax credit laws;
by transfer pricing adjustments related to certain acquisitions including the license of acquired
intangibles under our intercompany R&D cost sharing arrangement; by tax effects of stock-based
compensation; by costs related to intercompany restructurings; or by changes in tax laws,
regulations, accounting principles, or interpretations thereof. In addition, we are subject to the
continuous examination of our income tax returns by the Internal Revenue Service and other tax
authorities. We regularly assess the likelihood of adverse outcomes resulting from these
examinations to determine the adequacy of our provision for income taxes. There can be no assurance
that the outcomes from these continuous examinations will not have an adverse effect on our
operating results and financial condition.

Infrastructure Segment
An analysis of the change in revenue for the Infrastructure segment, and the change in units, can
be found above in the section titled Net Revenues.
Infrastructure segment operating income increased in the three and nine months ended September 30,
2008, compared to the same periods in 2007, primarily due to revenue growth from our router product
families and to a lesser extent our Ethernet switching product family, which outpaced the expense
growth. Infrastructure product gross margin increased in absolute dollars in the three and nine
months ended September 30, 2008, compared to the same periods in 2007, primarily due to revenues
from richly configured high-end T- and M-series router products as well as high-margin port
shipments. The Infrastructure gross margin percentage decreased slightly in the three and nine
months ended September 30, 2008, compared to the same periods in 2007, primarily due to product mix
and the timing of revenue recognition from certain arrangements for previously shipped lower margin
E-series products.
We continued to invest in research and development efforts to continue our innovation of products
and expand our Infrastructure product portfolio, but our research and development expense decreased
as a percentage of Infrastructure net revenues in the three and nine months ended September 30,
2008, compared to the same periods in 2007, primarily due to cost control initiatives that resulted
in revenue growing faster than expenses. We will continue to make investments to expand our product
features and functionality based upon the trends in the marketplace. Additionally, in the three and
nine months ended September 30, 2008, compared to the same periods in 2007, our sales and marketing
expenses decreased slightly as a percentage of Infrastructure net revenues, but increased in
absolute dollars as we increased our efforts to reach enterprise and service provider customers. We
46
allocate sales and marketing, general and administrative, as well as facility and information
technology expenses to the Infrastructure segment generally based upon revenue, usage and
headcount.
SLT Segment
An analysis of the change in revenue for the SLT segment, and the change in units, can be found
above in the section titled Net Revenues.
SLT segment operating income increased in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008,
compared to the same periods in 2007, primarily due to revenue growth outpacing increases in SLT
expenses. SLT product gross margin and gross margin percentage increased in the three and nine
months ended September 30, 2008, compared to the same periods in 2007, primarily due to product
mix, particularly from an increase in the mix of higher margin high-end Firewall and J-series
products in 2008. Research and development related costs decreased in absolute dollars and as a
percentage of SLT revenues in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, compared to the
same periods in 2007, primarily due to cost control initiatives that resulted in revenue growing
faster than research and development expenses. Additionally, sales and marketing as well as general
and administrative expenses decreased as a percentage of SLT net revenues in the three and nine
months ended September 30, 2008, compared to the same periods in 2007, primarily due to our focused
execution. We allocate sales and marketing, general and administrative, as well as facility and
information technology expenses to the SLT segment generally based on revenue, usage and headcount.
We have historically experienced seasonality and fluctuations in the demand for our SLT products,
which may result in greater variations in our quarterly revenue.

months ended September 30, 2008. DSO increased slightly in the third quarter of 2008, compared
to the third quarter of 2007, primarily due to the timing of receipts from our customers. |

The significant components of our working capital are cash and cash equivalents, short-term
investments and accounts receivable, reduced by accounts payable, income tax payable, accrued
liabilities and short-term deferred revenue. Working capital increased primarily due to an increase
in cash and cash equivalents balance due to cash generated from operations and the conversion of
our Senior Notes into common stock.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2008, we repurchased $562.2 million, or 22.7 million
shares, of our common stock under two stock repurchase programs that were authorized by our Board
of Directors.
Under the $2.0 billion stock repurchase program approved in 2006 and 2007 (the 2006 Stock
Repurchase Program), we repurchased approximately 13.2 million shares of our common stock at an
average price of $24.52 per share for a total purchase price of $323.7 million during the three
months ended September 30, 2008, and approximately 15.4 million shares of our common stock at an
average price of $24.53 per share for a total purchase price of $376.8 million during the nine
months ended September 30, 2008. As of September 30, 2008, we have repurchased and retired
approximately 84.8 million shares of our common stock under the 2006 Stock Repurchase Program at an
average price of $23.58 per share, and the program had no remaining authorized funds available for
future stock repurchases.
The Board of Directors approved another $1.0 billion stock repurchase program in March 2008 (the
2008 Stock Repurchase Program). Under this program, we repurchased approximately 4.8 million
shares of our common stock at an average price of $24.66 per share for a total purchase price of
$117.2 million during the three months ended September 30, 2008, and approximately 7.3 million
shares of our common stock at an average price of $25.42 per share for a total purchase price of
$185.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2008. As of September 30, 2008, the 2008
Stock Repurchase Program had remaining authorized funds of $814.6 million.
All shares of common stock purchased under the 2006 and 2008 Stock Repurchase Programs have been
retired. Future share repurchases under the 2008 Stock Repurchase Program will be subject to a
review of the circumstances in place at the time and will be made from time to time in private
transactions or open market purchases as permitted by securities laws and other legal requirements.
This program may be discontinued at any time.
Based on past performance and current expectations, we believe that our existing cash and cash
equivalents, short-term and long-term investments, together with cash generated from operations as
well as cash generated from the exercise of employee stock options and purchases under our employee
stock purchase plan will be sufficient to fund our operations, debt, and growth for at least the
next 12 months. We believe our working capital is sufficient to meet our liquidity requirements for
capital expenditures, commitments and other liquidity requirements associated with our existing
operations during the same period.
48
However, our future liquidity and capital requirements may vary materially from those now planned
depending on many factors, including:
|
|
the overall levels of sales of our products and gross profit margins; |
|
|
|
our business, product, capital expenditures and research and development plans; |
|
|
|
the market acceptance of our products; |
|
|
|
repurchases of our common stock; |
|
|
|
issuance and repayment of debt; |
|
|
|
litigation expenses, settlements and judgments; |
|
|
|
volume price discounts and customer rebates; |
|
|
|
the levels of accounts receivable that we maintain; |
|
|
|
acquisitions of other businesses, assets, products or technologies; |
|
|
|
changes in our compensation policies; |
|
|
|
capital improvements for new and existing facilities; |
|
|
|
technological advances; |
|
|
|
our competitors responses to our products; |
|
|
|
our relationships with suppliers and customers; |
|
|
|
possible future investments in raw material and finished goods inventories; |
|
|
|
expenses related to our future restructuring plans, if any; |
|
|
|
tax expense associated with stock-based awards; |
|
|
|
issuance of stock-based awards and the related payment in cash for withholding taxes in the
current year and possibly during future years; |
|
|
|
the level of exercises of stock options and stock purchases under our equity incentive plans;
and |
|
|
|
general economic conditions and specific conditions in our industry and markets, including
the effects of disruptions in global credit and financial markets, international conflicts and
related uncertainties. |
Cash Requirements and Contractual Obligations
Our principal commitments primarily consisted of obligations outstanding under operating leases,
purchase commitments, tax liabilities and other contractual obligations.
Our contractual obligations under operating leases primarily relate to our leased facilities under
our non-cancelable operating leases. Rent payments are allocated to costs and operating expenses in
our condensed consolidated statements of operations. We occupy approximately 1.9 million square
feet world wide under operating leases. The majority of our office space is in North America,
including our corporate headquarters in Sunnyvale, California. Our longest lease expires in January
2017. As of September 30, 2008, future minimum payments under our
49
non-cancelable operating leases, net of committed sublease income, were $225.4 million, of which $14.1
million will be paid over the remaining nine months of 2008.
In order to reduce manufacturing lead times and ensure adequate component supply, our contract
manufacturers place non-cancelable, non-returnable (NCNR) orders for components based on our
build forecast. As of September 30, 2008, there were NCNR component orders placed by our contract
manufacturers with a value of $98.9 million. The contract manufacturers use the components to build
products based on our forecasts and on purchase orders we have received from our customers.
Generally, we do not take ownership of the components and title to the products transfers from
contract manufacturers to us and immediately to our customers upon delivery at a designated
shipment location. If the components go unused or the products go unsold for specified periods of
time, we may incur carrying charges or obsolete materials charges for components that our contract
manufacturers purchased to build products to meet our forecast or customer orders. As of September
30, 2008, we had accrued $28.5 million based on our estimate of such charges.
As of September 30, 2008, we had $82.5 million of long-term liabilities in our condensed
consolidated balance sheet for unrecognized tax positions. At this time, we are unable to make a
reasonably reliable estimate of the timing of payments in individual years beyond the next 12
months due to uncertainties in the timing of tax audit outcomes.
As of September 30, 2008, other contractual obligations consisted primarily of an indemnity-related
escrow amount of $2.3 million, a software subscription requiring payment of $5.0 million in January
2009, and a joint development agreement with quarterly payments of $3.5 million payable through
January 2010. Additionally, in the second quarter of 2008, we entered into a five year, $34.0
million data center hosting agreement which was amended in the third quarter of 2008, increasing
the amounts payable under the agreement to $36.4 million. As of September 30, 2008, $28.1 million
remained unpaid under the data center hosting agreement of which $1.9 million is required to be
paid by the fourth quarter of 2008. The remaining commitment under this agreement is expected to be
paid through the end of April 2013.
In the nine months ended September 30, 2008, cash and cash equivalents increased by $62.4 million.
This increase resulted from $660.1 million of cash that was generated from our operating
activities, partially offset by cash used in investing activities of $191.5 million and cash used
in financing activities of $406.2 million.
Operating Activities
We generated cash from operating activities of $660.1 million in the nine months ended September
30, 2008, compared to $542.2 million in the same period of 2007. The increase of $117.9 million in
the 2008 period compared to a year ago was chiefly due to the following activities within the
period:
|
|
Net income of $379.3 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2008, compared to $237.9
million in the same 2007 period due to revenue growth and decreases in expenses as a
percentage of net revenues. |
|
|
|
Cash inflow of $11.2 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2008, as compared to an
outflow of $20.7 million for the same period in 2007, primarily due to the decrease in
accounts receivable during the current fiscal year as a result of improved DSO from 42 days as
of December 31, 2007 to 35 days as of September 30, 2008 and the timing of product shipments
at the end of the quarter. |
|
|
|
Cash inflow of $75.6 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2008, as compared to an
inflow of $30.2 million for the same period in 2007, primarily due to increases in other
payables and liabilities. In particular, our income taxes payable and long-term tax reserve
liabilities increased by $41.9 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2008, compared
to a decrease of $4.3 million in the same 2007 period, due to the timing of payments of
federal, state and foreign income taxes. |
50
Investing Activities
For the nine months ended September 30, 2008, net cash used by investing activities was $191.5
million compared to $509.6 million of net cash generated by investing activities in the nine months
ended September 30, 2007. The change compared to the prior year period was primarily due to the
movement of cash from short and long-term investments to cash and cash equivalents during the first
nine months of 2007 in anticipation of stock repurchases under the 2006 Stock Repurchase Program.
In the first nine months of 2008, we invested a net $57.1 million in available-for-sale investments
based upon our investment strategy.
Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities was $406.2 million and $1,298.8 million for the nine months
ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. In the nine months ended September 30 2008, we
used $562.2 million to repurchase our common stock, partially offset by cash proceeds of $115.4
million from common stock issued to employees, compared to the $1,623.2 million of common stock
repurchases in the same 2007 period, partially offset by cash proceeds of $308.7 million from
common stock issued to employees.
Factors That May Affect Future Results
A description of the risk factors associated with our business is included under Risk Factors in
Item 1A of Part II of this report.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Interest Rate Risk
We maintain an investment portfolio of various holdings, types and maturities. The values of our
investments are subject to market price volatility. In addition, a portion of our cash and
marketable securities is held in non-U.S. domiciled countries. These marketable securities are
generally classified as available-for-sale and, consequently, are recorded on our condensed
consolidated balance sheet at fair value with unrealized gains or losses reported as a separate
component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).
At any time, a rise in interest rates could have a material adverse impact on the fair value of our
investment portfolio. Conversely, declines in interest rates could have a material impact on
interest earnings of our investment portfolio. We do not currently hedge these interest rate
exposures. We recognized immaterial net gains or losses during the three and nine months ended
September 30, 2008 and 2007 related to the sales of our investments.
Foreign Currency Risk and Foreign Exchange Forward Contracts
We use derivatives to partially offset our market exposure to fluctuations in certain foreign
currencies. We do not enter into derivatives for speculative or trading purposes.
We use foreign currency forward contracts to mitigate gains and losses generated from the
re-measurement of certain foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities. These
derivatives are carried at fair value with changes recorded in interest and other income, net.
Changes in the fair value of these derivatives are largely offset by re-measurement of the
underlying assets and liabilities. These foreign exchange contracts have maturities between one and
two months.
Our sales are primarily denominated in U.S. dollars. Our costs of revenues and operating expenses
are denominated in U.S. dollars, the British Pound, the Euro, Indian Rupee and Japanese Yen as well
as other foreign currencies. We use foreign currency forward and/or option contracts to hedge
certain forecasted foreign currency transactions relating to operating expenses. These derivatives
are designated as cash flow hedges and have maturities of less than one year. The effective portion
of the derivatives gain or loss is initially reported as a component of accumulated other
comprehensive income and, upon occurrence of the forecasted transaction, is subsequently
reclassified into the operating expense line item to which the hedged transaction relates. We
record the ineffectiveness of the hedging
51
instruments, which was immaterial during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008 and
2007, in interest and other income, net on our condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Research and development, sales and marketing, as well as general and administrative expenses
slightly increased in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, compared with the same
periods in 2007, due to the effect of foreign currency fluctuations.
Equity Price Risk
Our portfolio of publicly-traded equity securities is inherently exposed to equity price risk as
the stock market fluctuates. We monitor our publicly-traded equity investments for impairment on a
periodic basis. In the event that the carrying value of a publicly-traded equity investment exceeds
its fair value, and we determine the decline in the value to be other than temporary, we reduce the
carrying value to its current fair value. We do not purchase our publicly-traded equity securities
with the intent to use them for trading or speculative purposes. They are classified as
available-for-sale securities in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities. The aggregate fair value of
our marketable equity securities was $6.1 million and $8.6 million as of September 30, 2008, and
December 31, 2007, respectively. A hypothetical 30% adverse change in the stock prices of our
portfolio of publicly-traded equity securities would result in an immaterial loss.
In addition to publicly-traded equity securities, we have also invested in privately-held
companies. These investments are carried at cost. The aggregate cost of our investments in
privately-held companies was $26.3 million and $23.3 million as of September 30, 2008, and December
31, 2007, respectively.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Attached as exhibits to this report are certifications of our principal executive officer and
principal financial officer, which are required in accordance with Rule 13a-14 of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act). This Controls and Procedures section
includes information concerning the controls and related evaluations referred to in the
certifications and it should be read in conjunction with the certifications for a more complete
understanding of the topics presented.
We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management,
including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of
the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e)
and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act. Based upon that evaluation, our principal executive officer and
principal financial officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered in this report, our
disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be
disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed,
summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission
rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal
executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions
regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Controls
In 2007, we initiated a multi-year implementation to upgrade certain key internal systems and
processes, including our company-wide human resources management system, CRM system and our ERP
system. This project is the result of our normal business process to evaluate and upgrade or
replace our systems software and related business processes to support our evolving operational
needs. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during
the third quarter of 2008 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially
affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
52
Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls
Our management, including the CEO and CFO, does not expect that our disclosure controls or our
internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all error and all fraud. A control
system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute,
assurance that the control systems objectives will be met. Our controls and procedures are
designed to provide reasonable assurance that our control systems objective will be met and our
CEO and CFO have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective at the
reasonable assurance level. 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.
Further, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can
provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all
control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the company have been detected. These
inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that
breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Controls can also be circumvented by the
individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of
the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions about
the likelihood of future events. Projections of any evaluation of controls effectiveness to future
periods are subject to risks. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in
conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures.
PART II OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
The information set forth under Legal Proceedings section in Note 9 Commitments and
Contingencies in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 Part I of this
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
Factors That May Affect Future Results
Investments in equity securities of publicly traded companies involve significant risks. The market
price of our stock reflects a higher multiple of expected future earnings than many other
companies. Accordingly, even small changes in investor expectations for our future growth and
earnings, whether as a result of actual or rumored financial or operating results, changes in the
mix of the products and services sold, acquisitions, industry changes or other factors, could
trigger, and have triggered, significant fluctuations in the market price of our common stock.
Investors in our securities should carefully consider all of the relevant factors, including, but
not limited to, the following factors, that could affect our stock price.
Our quarterly results are inherently unpredictable and subject to substantial fluctuations and, as
a result, we may fail to meet the expectations of securities analysts and investors, which could
adversely affect the trading price of our common stock.
Our revenues and operating results may vary significantly from quarter to quarter due to a number
of factors, many of which are outside of our control and any of which may cause our stock price to
fluctuate.
The factors that may affect the unpredictability of our quarterly results include, but are not
limited to: limited visibility into customer spending plans, changes in the mix of products sold,
changing market conditions, including current and potential customer consolidation, competition,
customer concentration, long sales and implementation cycles, regional economic and political
conditions and seasonality. For example, many companies in our industry experience adverse seasonal
fluctuations in customer spending patterns, particularly in the first and third quarters.
As a result, we believe that quarter-to-quarter comparisons of operating results are not
necessarily a good indication of what our future performance will be. It is likely that in some
future quarters, our operating results may be below the expectations of securities analysts or
investors, in which case the price of our common stock may decline. Such a
53
decline could occur, and has occurred in the past, even when we have met our publicly stated
revenue and/or earnings guidance.
Fluctuating economic conditions make it difficult to predict revenues for a particular period and a
shortfall in revenues or increase in costs of production may harm our operating results.
Our revenues depend significantly on general economic conditions and the demand for products in the
markets in which we compete. Economic weakness, customer financial difficulties and constrained
spending on network expansion have previously resulted (for example, in 2001 and 2002), and may in
the future result, in decreased revenues and earnings and could negatively impact our ability to
forecast and manage our contract manufacturer relationships. In addition, recent turmoil in the
global financial markets and recession concerns, as well as turmoil in the geopolitical environment
in many parts of the world, may continue to put pressure on global economic conditions, which could
lead to reduced demand for our products and/or higher costs of production. Economic downturns may
also lead to longer collection cycles for payments due from our customers, an increase in bad
debts, restructuring initiatives and associated expenses and impairment of investments.
Furthermore, the recent disruption in worldwide credit markets may adversely impact the ability of
our customers to adequately fund their expected capital expenditures, which could lead to delays or
cancellations of planned purchases of our products or services. In addition, our operating expenses
are largely based on anticipated revenue trends and a high percentage of our expenses are, and will
continue to be, fixed in the short-term. Uncertainty about future economic conditions makes it
difficult to forecast operating results and to make decisions about future investments. Future
economic weakness, customer financial difficulties, increases in costs of production, and
reductions in spending on network expansion could have a material adverse effect on demand for our
products and consequently on our net revenues, results of operations and stock price.
Telecommunications companies and other large companies generally require more onerous terms and
conditions of their vendors. As we seek to sell more products to such customers, we may be required
to agree to terms and conditions that may have an adverse effect on our business or ability to
recognize revenues.
Telecommunications service provider companies and other large companies, because of their size,
generally have had greater purchasing power and, accordingly, have requested and received more
favorable terms, which often translate into more onerous terms and conditions for their vendors. As
we seek to sell more products to this class of customer, we may be required to agree to such terms
and conditions, which may include terms that affect the timing of our ability to recognize revenue
and have an adverse effect on our business and financial condition. Consolidation among such large
customers can further increase their buying power and ability to require onerous terms.
For example, many customers in this class have purchased products from other vendors who promised
certain functionality and failed to deliver such functionality and/or had products that caused
problems and outages in the networks of these customers. As a result, this class of customers may
request additional features from us and require substantial penalties for failure to deliver such
features or may require substantial penalties for any network outages that may be caused by our
products. These additional requests and penalties, if we are required to agree to them, may affect
our ability to recognize the revenues from such sales, which may negatively affect our business and
our financial condition. For example, in April 2006, we announced that we would be required to
defer a large amount of revenue from a customer due to the contractual obligations required by that
customer.
For arrangements with multiple elements, vendor specific objective evidence of fair value of the
undelivered element is required in order to separate the components and to account for elements of
the arrangement separately. Vendor specific objective evidence of fair value is based on the price
charged when the element is sold separately. However, customers may require terms and conditions
that make it more difficult or impossible for us to maintain vendor specific objective evidence of
fair value for the undelivered elements to a similar group of customers, the result of which could
cause us to defer the entire arrangement fees for a similar group of customers (product,
maintenance, professional services, etc.) and recognize revenue only when the last element is
delivered or if the only undelivered element is maintenance revenue would be recognized ratably
over the contractual maintenance period, which is generally one year but could be substantially
longer.
54
Our ability to process orders and ship products in a timely manner is dependent in part on our
business systems and performance of the systems and processes of third parties such as our contract
manufacturers, suppliers or other partners, as well as interfaces with the systems of such third
parties. If our systems, the systems and processes of those third parties or the interfaces between
them experience delays or fail, our business processes and our ability to build and ship products
could be impacted, and our financial results could be harmed.
Some of our business processes depend upon our information technology systems, the systems and
processes of third parties and on interfaces with the systems of third parties. For example, our
order entry system feeds information into the systems of our contract manufacturers, which enables
them to build and ship our products. If those systems fail or are interrupted, our processes may
function at a diminished level or not at all. This could negatively impact our ability to ship
products or otherwise operate our business, and our financial results could be harmed. For example,
although it did not adversely affect our shipments, an earthquake in late December of 2006
disrupted communications with China, where a significant part of our manufacturing occurs.
We also rely upon the performance of the systems and processes of our contract manufacturers to
build and ship our products. If those systems and processes experience interruption or delay, our
ability to build and ship our products in a timely manner may be harmed. For example, as we have
expanded our contract manufacturing base to China, we have experienced instances where our contract
manufacturer was not able to ship products in the time periods expected by us. If we are not able
to ship our products or if product shipments are delayed, our ability to recognize revenue in a
timely manner for those products would be affected and our financial results could be harmed.
A limited number of our customers comprise a significant portion of our revenues and any decrease
in revenue from these customers could have an adverse effect on our net revenues and operating
results.
A substantial majority of our net revenues depend on sales to a limited number of customers and
distribution partners. For example, Verizon accounted for greater than 10% of our net revenues for
the three months ended September 30, 2008 and NSN accounted for greater than 10% of our net
revenues during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2007. This customer concentration
increases the risk of quarterly fluctuations in our revenues and operating results. Changes in the
business requirements, vendor selection or purchasing behavior of our key customers or potential
new customers could significantly decrease sales to such customers. In addition, the recent
disruption in worldwide credit markets may adversely impact the ability of our customers to
adequately fund their expected capital expenditures, which could lead to delays or cancellations of
planned purchases of our products or services. Any of these factors could adversely affect our net
revenues and results of operations.
In addition, in recent years there has been consolidation in the telecommunications industry (for
example, the acquisitions of AT&T Inc., MCI, Inc. and BellSouth Corporation) and consolidation
among the large vendors of telecommunications equipment and services (for example, the combination
of Alcatel and Lucent, the joint venture of NSN and the acquisition of Redback by Ericsson). Such
consolidation may cause our customers who are involved in these acquisitions to suspend or
indefinitely reduce their purchases of our products or have other unforeseen consequences that
could harm our business and operating results.
If we fail to accurately predict our manufacturing requirements, we could incur additional costs or
experience manufacturing delays which would harm our business.
We provide demand forecasts to our contract manufacturers. If we overestimate our requirements, the
contract manufacturers may assess charges or we may have liabilities for excess inventory, each of
which could negatively affect our gross margins. Conversely, because lead times for required
materials and components vary significantly and depend on factors such as the specific supplier,
contract terms and the demand for each component at a given time, if we underestimate our
requirements, the contract manufacturers may have inadequate time or materials and components
required to produce our products, which could increase costs or could delay or interrupt
manufacturing of our products and result in delays in shipments and deferral or loss of revenues.
55
We are dependent on sole source and limited source suppliers for several key components, which
makes us susceptible to shortages or price fluctuations in our supply chain and we may face
increased challenges in supply chain management in the future.
With the current demand for electronic products, component shortages are possible and the
predictability of the availability of such components may be limited. Growth in our business and
the economy is likely to create greater pressures on us and our suppliers to accurately project
overall component demand and to establish optimal component levels. If shortages or delays persist,
the price of these components may increase, or the components may not be available at all. We may
not be able to secure enough components at reasonable prices or of acceptable quality to build new
products in a timely manner and our revenues and gross margins could suffer until other sources can
be developed. For example, from time to time, including the first quarter of 2008, we have
experienced component shortages that resulted in delays of product shipments. We currently purchase
numerous key components, including ASICs, from single or limited sources. The development of
alternate sources for those components is time consuming, difficult and costly. In addition, the
lead times associated with certain components are lengthy and preclude rapid changes in quantities
and delivery schedules. In the event of a component shortage or supply interruption from these
suppliers, we may not be able to develop alternate or second sources in a timely manner. If, as a
result, we are unable to buy these components in quantities sufficient to meet our requirements on
a timely basis, we will not be able to deliver product to our customers, which would seriously
impact present and future sales, which would, in turn, adversely affect our business.
In addition, the development, licensing or acquisition of new products in the future may increase
the complexity of supply chain management. Failure to effectively manage the supply of key
components and products would adversely affect our business.
We are dependent on contract manufacturers with whom we do not have long-term supply contracts, and
changes to those relationships, expected or unexpected, may result in delays or disruptions that
could cause us to lose revenue and damage our customer relationships.
We depend on independent contract manufacturers (each of which is a third party manufacturer for
numerous companies) to manufacture our products. Although we have contracts with our contract
manufacturers, those contracts do not require them to manufacture our products on a long-term basis
in any specific quantity or at any specific price. In addition, it is time consuming and costly to
qualify and implement additional contract manufacturer relationships. Therefore, if we should fail
to effectively manage our contract manufacturer relationships or if one or more of them should
experience delays, disruptions or quality control problems in our manufacturing operations, or if
we had to change or add additional contract manufacturers or contract manufacturing sites, our
ability to ship products to our customers could be delayed. Also, the addition of manufacturing
locations or contract manufacturers would increase the complexity of our supply chain management.
Moreover, an increasing portion of our manufacturing is performed in China and other countries and
is therefore subject to risks associated with doing business in other countries. Each of these
factors could adversely affect our business and financial results.
We expect gross margin to vary over time and our recent level of product gross margin may not be
sustainable.
Our product gross margins will vary from quarter to quarter and the recent level of gross margins
may not be sustainable and may be adversely affected in the future by numerous factors, including
product mix shifts, increased price competition in one or more of the markets in which we compete,
increases in material or labor costs, excess product component or obsolescence charges from our
contract manufacturers, increased costs due to changes in component pricing or charges incurred due
to component holding periods if our forecasts do not accurately anticipate product demand, warranty
related issues, or our introduction of new products or entry into new markets with different
pricing and cost structures.
56
The long sales and implementation cycles for our products, as well as our expectation that some
customers will sporadically place large orders with short lead times, may cause our revenues and
operating results to vary significantly from quarter to quarter.
A customers decision to purchase certain of our products involves a significant commitment of its
resources and a lengthy evaluation and product qualification process. As a result, the sales cycle
may be lengthy. In particular, customers making critical decisions regarding the design and
implementation of large or next-generation networks may engage in very lengthy procurement
processes that may delay or impact expected future orders. Throughout the sales cycle, we may spend
considerable time educating and providing information to prospective customers regarding the use
and benefits of our products. Even after making the decision to purchase, customers may deploy our
products slowly and deliberately. Timing of deployment can vary widely and depends on the skill set
of the customer, the size of the network deployment, the complexity of the customers network
environment and the degree of hardware and operating system configuration necessary to deploy the
products. Customers with large networks usually expand their networks in large increments on a
periodic basis. Accordingly, we may receive purchase orders for significant dollar amounts on an
irregular basis. These long cycles, as well as our expectation that customers will tend to
sporadically place large orders with short lead times, may cause revenues and operating results to
vary significantly and unexpectedly from quarter to quarter.
We are a party to lawsuits, which are costly to investigate and defend and, if determined adversely
to us, could require us to pay damages or prevent us from taking certain actions, any or all of
which could harm our business and financial condition.
We and certain of our current and former officers and current and former members of our board of
directors are subject to various lawsuits. For example, we have been served with lawsuits related
to the alleged backdating of stock options and other related matters, a description of which can be
found above in Note 9 Commitments and Contingencies in Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial
Statements under the heading Legal Proceedings. There can be no assurance that these or any
actions that have been or may be brought against us will be resolved in our favor. Regardless of
whether they are resolved in our favor, these lawsuits are, and any future lawsuits to which we may
become a party will likely be, expensive and time consuming to investigate, defend, settle and/or
resolve. Such costs of investigation and defense, as well as any losses resulting from these claims
or settlement of these claims, could significantly increase our expenses and could harm our
business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flow.
In addition, we are party to a lawsuit which seeks to enjoin us from granting equity awards under
our 2006 Equity Incentive Plan (the 2006 Plan), as well as to invalidate all awards granted under
such plan to date. The 2006 Plan is the only active plan under which we currently grant stock
options and restricted stock units to our employees. If this lawsuit is not resolved in our favor,
we may be prevented from using the 2006 Plan to provide these equity awards to recruit new
employees or to compensate existing employees, which would put us at a significant disadvantage to
other companies that compete for workers in high technology industries such as ours. Accordingly,
our ability to hire, retain and motivate current and prospective employees would be harmed, the
result of which could negatively impact our business operations.
We sell our products to customers that use those products to build networks and IP infrastructure
and, if the demand for network and IP systems does not continue to grow, then our business,
operating results and financial condition could be adversely affected.
A substantial portion of our business and revenue depends on the growth of secure IP infrastructure
and on the deployment of our products by customers that depend on the continued growth of IP
services. As a result of changes in the economy and capital spending or the building of network
capacity in excess of demand, all of which have in the past particularly affected
telecommunications service providers, spending on IP infrastructure can vary, which could have a
material adverse effect on our business and financial results. In addition, a number of our
existing customers are evaluating the build out of their next generation network, or NGN. During
the decision making period when the customers are determining the design of those networks and the
selection of the equipment they will use in those networks, such customers may greatly reduce or
suspend their spending on secure IP infrastructure. Such pauses in purchases can make it more
difficult to predict revenues from such customers, can cause fluctuations in the
57
level of spending by these customers and, even where our products are ultimately selected, can have
a material adverse effect on our business and financial results.
If we do not successfully anticipate market needs and develop products and product enhancements
that meet those needs, or if those products do not gain market acceptance, we may not be able to
compete effectively and our ability to generate revenues will suffer.
We cannot guarantee that we will be able to anticipate future market needs or be able to develop
new products or product enhancements to meet such needs or to meet them in a timely manner. If we
fail to anticipate market requirements or to develop and introduce new products or product
enhancements to meet those needs in a timely manner, such failure could substantially decrease or
delay market acceptance and sales of our present and future products, which would significantly
harm our business and financial results. Even if we are able to anticipate, develop and
commercially introduce new products and enhancements, there can be no assurance that new products
or enhancements will achieve widespread market acceptance. For example, in the first quarter of
2008, we announced new products designed to address the Ethernet switching market, a market in
which we have not had a historical presence. If these new products do not gain market acceptance at
a sufficient rate of growth, or at all, our ability to meet future financial targets may be
adversely affected. Any failure of our products to achieve market acceptance could adversely affect
our business and financial results.
We rely on value-added resellers and distribution partners to sell our products, and disruptions
to, or our failure to effectively develop and manage our distribution channel and the processes and
procedures that support it could adversely affect our ability to generate revenues from the sale of
our products.
Our future success is highly dependent upon establishing and maintaining successful relationships
with a variety of value-added reseller and distribution partners. The majority of our revenues are
derived through value-added resellers and distributors, most of which also sell competitors
products. Our revenues depend in part on the performance of these partners. The loss of or
reduction in sales to our value-added resellers or distributors could materially reduce our
revenues. During 2006, Alcatel, another value-added reseller and a competitor of ours, acquired
Lucent, one of our largest value-added resellers. In addition, in April 2007 our largest customer,
Siemens, transferred its telecommunications business to a joint venture between Siemens and Nokia.
Our competitors may in some cases be effective in providing incentives to current or potential
resellers and distributors to favor their products or to prevent or reduce sales of our products.
If we fail to maintain relationships with our partners, fail to develop new relationships with
value-added resellers and distributors in new markets or expand the number of distributors and
resellers in existing markets, fail to manage, train or motivate existing value-added resellers and
distributors effectively or if these partners are not successful in their sales efforts, sales of
our products may decrease and our operating results would suffer.
In addition, we recognize a portion of our revenue based on a sell-through model using information
provided by our distributors. If those distributors provide us with inaccurate or untimely
information, the amount or timing of our revenues could be adversely impacted.
Further, in order to develop and expand our distribution channel, we must continue to scale and
improve our processes and procedures that support it, and those processes and procedures may become
increasingly complex and inherently difficult to manage. Our failure to successfully manage and
develop our distribution channel and the processes and procedures that support it could adversely
affect our ability to generate revenues from the sale of our products.
We face intense competition that could reduce our revenues and adversely affect our financial
results.
Competition is intense in the markets that we address. The IP infrastructure market has
historically been dominated by Cisco with other companies such as Alcatel-Lucent, Ericsson, Extreme
Networks, Foundry Networks, Huawei, and Nortel providing products to a smaller segment of the
market. In addition, a number of other small public and private companies have products or have
announced plans for new products to address the same challenges and markets that our products
address.
58
In the service layer technologies market, we face intense competition from a broader group of
companies including appliance vendors such as Cisco, Fortinet, F5 Networks, Nortel and Riverbed,
and software vendors such as CheckPoint. In addition, a number of other small public and private
companies have products or have announced plans for new products to address the same challenges and
markets that our products address.
In addition, actual or speculated consolidation among competitors, or the acquisition of our
partners and resellers by competitors, can increase the competitive pressures faced by us. In this
regard, Alcatel combined with Lucent in 2006 and Ericsson acquired Redback in 2007. A number of our
competitors have substantially greater resources and can offer a wider range of products and
services for the overall network equipment market than we do. If we are unable to compete
successfully against existing and future competitors on the basis of product offerings or price, we
could experience a loss in market share and revenues and/or be required to reduce prices, which
could reduce our gross margins, and which could materially and adversely affect our business,
operating results and financial condition.
We are currently implementing upgrades to key internal systems and processes, and problems with the
design or implementation of these systems and processes could interfere with our business and
operations.
We have initiated a project to upgrade certain key internal systems and processes, including our
company-wide human resources management system, our CRM system and our ERP system. We have
invested, and will continue to invest, significant capital and human resources in the design and
implementation of these systems and processes, which may be disruptive to our underlying business.
Any disruptions or delays in the design and implementation of the new systems or processes,
particularly any disruptions or delays that impact our operations, could adversely affect our
ability to process customer orders, ship products, provide service and support to our customers,
bill and track our customers, fulfill contractual obligations, record and transfer information in a
timely and accurate manner, file SEC reports in a timely manner or otherwise run our business. Even
if we do not encounter these adverse effects, the design and implementation of these new systems
and processes may be much more costly than we anticipated. If we are unable to successfully design
and implement these new systems and processes as planned, or if the implementation of these systems
and processes is more costly than anticipated, our financial position, results of operations and
cash flows could be negatively impacted.
Litigation or claims regarding intellectual property rights may be time consuming, expensive and
require a significant amount of resources to prosecute, defend or make our products non-infringing.
Third parties have asserted and may in the future assert claims or initiate litigation related to
patent, copyright, trademark and other intellectual property rights to technologies and related
standards that are relevant to our products. The asserted claims and/or initiated litigation may
include claims against us or our manufacturers, suppliers or customers, alleging infringement of
their proprietary rights with respect to our products. Regardless of the merit of these claims,
they have been and can be time consuming, result in costly litigation and may require us to develop
non-infringing technologies or enter into license agreements. Furthermore, because of the potential
for high awards of damages or injunctive relief that are not necessarily predictable, even arguably
unmeritorious claims may be settled for significant amounts of money. If any infringement or other
intellectual property claim made against us by any third party is successful, if we are required to
settle litigation for significant amounts of money, or if we fail to develop non-infringing
technology or license required proprietary rights on commercially reasonable terms and conditions,
our business, operating results, financial condition and cash flow could be materially and
adversely affected.
We are subject to risks arising from our international operations.
We derive a majority of our revenues from our international operations, and we plan to continue
expanding our business in international markets in the future. As a result of our international
operations, we are affected by economic, regulatory and political conditions in foreign countries,
including changes in IT spending generally, the imposition of government controls, changes or
limitations in trade protection laws, unfavorable changes in tax treaties or laws, natural
disasters, labor unrest, earnings expatriation restrictions, misappropriation of intellectual
property, acts of terrorism and continued unrest in many regions and other factors, which could
have a material impact on our international revenues and operations. In particular, in some
countries we may experience reduced
59
intellectual property protection. Moreover, local laws and customs in many countries differ
significantly from those in the United States. In many foreign countries, particularly in those
with developing economies, it is common for others to engage in business practices that are
prohibited by our internal policies and procedures or United States regulations applicable to us.
Although we implement policies and procedures designed to ensure compliance with these laws and
policies, there can be no assurance that all of our employees, contractors and agents will not take
actions in violation of them. Violations of laws or key control policies by our employees,
contractors or agents could result in financial reporting problems, fines, penalties, or
prohibition on the importation or exportation of our products and could have a material adverse
effect on our business.
Changes in effective tax rates or adverse outcomes resulting from examination of our income or
other tax returns could adversely affect our results.
Our future effective tax rates could be subject to volatility or adversely affected by: earnings
being lower than anticipated in countries where we have lower statutory rates and higher than
anticipated earnings in countries where we have higher statutory rates; by changes in the valuation
of our deferred tax assets and liabilities; by expiration of or lapses in the R&D tax credit laws;
by transfer pricing adjustments related to certain acquisitions including the license of acquired
intangibles under our intercompany R&D cost sharing arrangement; by tax effects of stock-based
compensation; by costs related to intercompany restructurings; or by changes in tax laws,
regulations, accounting principles, or interpretations thereof. In addition, we are subject to the
continuous examination of our income tax returns by the Internal Revenue Service and other tax
authorities. We regularly assess the likelihood of adverse outcomes resulting from these
examinations to determine the adequacy of our provision for income taxes. There can be no assurance
that the outcomes from these continuous examinations will not have an adverse effect on our
operating results and financial condition.
We are exposed to fluctuations in currency exchange rates which could negatively affect our
financial results and cash flows.
Because a majority of our business is conducted outside the United States, we face exposure to
adverse movements in non-US currency exchange rates. These exposures may change over time as
business practices evolve and could have a material adverse impact on our financial results and
cash flows.
The majority of our revenues and expenses are transacted in U.S. Dollars. We also have some
transactions that are denominated in foreign currencies, primarily the British Pound, the Euro,
Indian Rupee and Japanese Yen related to our sales and service operations outside of the United
States. An increase in the value of the U.S. Dollar could increase the real cost to our customers
of our products in those markets outside the United States where we sell in
U.S. Dollars, and a weakened dollar could increase the cost of local operating expenses and
procurement of raw materials to the extent we must purchase components in foreign currencies.
Currently, we hedge only those currency exposures associated with certain assets and liabilities
denominated in nonfunctional currencies and periodically will hedge anticipated foreign currency
cash flows. The hedging activities undertaken by us are intended to offset the impact of currency
fluctuations on certain nonfunctional currency assets and liabilities. However, no amount of
hedging can be effective against all circumstances, including long-term declines in the value of
the U.S. Dollar. If our attempts to hedge against these risks are not successful or if long-term
declines in the value of the U.S. Dollar persist, our net income could be adversely impacted.
Matters related to the investigation into our historical stock option granting practices and the
restatement of our financial statements has resulted in litigation and regulatory proceedings, and
may result in additional litigation or other possible government actions.
Our historical stock option granting practices and the restatement of our financial statements have
exposed us to greater risks associated with litigation, regulatory proceedings and government
enforcement actions. For more information regarding our current litigation and related inquiries,
please see Note 9 Commitments and Contingencies in Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial
Statements under the heading Legal Proceedings as well as the other risk factors related to
litigation set forth in this section. We have provided the results of our internal
60
review and independent investigation to the SEC and the United States Attorneys Office for the
Northern District of California, and in that regard we have responded to formal and informal
requests for documents and additional information. In August 2007, we announced that we entered
into a settlement agreement with the SEC in connection with our historical stock option granting
practices in which we consented to a permanent injunction against any future violations of the
antifraud, reporting, books-and-records and internal control provisions of the federal securities
laws. This settlement concluded the SECs formal investigation of the Company with respect to this
matter. In addition, while we believe that we have made appropriate judgments in determining the
correct measurement dates for our stock option grants, the SEC may disagree with the manner in
which we accounted for and reported, or did not report, the corresponding financial impact. We are
also subject to civil litigation related to the stock option matters. No assurance can be given
regarding the outcomes from litigation or other possible government actions. The resolution of
these matters will be time consuming, expensive, and may distract management from the conduct of
our business. Furthermore, if we are subject to adverse findings in litigation or if we enter into
any settlements related thereto, we could be required to pay damages or penalties or have other
remedies imposed, which could harm our business, financial condition, results of operations and
cash flows.
If we fail to adequately evolve our financial and managerial control and reporting systems and
processes, our ability to manage and grow our business will be negatively affected.
Our ability to successfully offer our products and implement our business plan in a rapidly
evolving market depends upon an effective planning and management process. We will need to continue
to improve our financial and managerial control and our reporting systems and procedures in order
to manage our business effectively in the future. If we fail to continue to implement improved
systems and processes, our ability to manage our business and results of operations may be
negatively affected.
Our success depends upon our ability to effectively plan and manage our resources and restructure
our business through rapidly fluctuating economic and market conditions.
Our ability to successfully offer our products and services in a rapidly evolving market requires
an effective planning, forecasting, and management process to enable us to effectively scale our
business and adjust our business in response to fluctuating market opportunities and conditions. In
periods of market expansion, we have increased investment in our business by, for example,
increasing headcount and increasing our investment in research and development and other parts of
our business. Conversely, during 2001 and 2002, in response to downward trending industry and
market conditions, we restructured our business and reduced our workforce. Many of our expenses,
such as real estate expenses, cannot be rapidly or easily adjusted as a result of fluctuations in
our business or numbers of employees. Moreover, rapid changes in the size of our workforce could
adversely affect the ability to develop and deliver products and services as planned or impair our
ability to realize our current or future business objectives.
Our reported financial results could suffer if there is an additional impairment of goodwill or
other intangible assets with indefinite lives.
We are required to test annually, and review on an interim basis, our goodwill and intangible
assets with indefinite lives, including the goodwill associated with past acquisitions and any
future acquisitions, to determine if impairment has occurred. If such assets are deemed impaired,
an impairment loss equal to the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair value of the
assets would be recognized. This would result in incremental expenses for that quarter which would
reduce any earnings or increase any loss for the period in which the impairment was determined to
have occurred. For example, such impairment could occur if the market value of our common stock
falls below certain levels for a sustained period or if the portions of our business related to
companies we have acquired fail to grow at expected rates or decline. In the second quarter of
2006, this impairment evaluation resulted in a reduction of $1,280.0 million to the carrying value
of goodwill on our balance sheet for the SLT operating segment, primarily due to the decline in our
market capitalization that occurred over a period of approximately nine months prior to the
impairment review and, to a lesser extent, a decrease in the forecasted future cash flows used in
the income approach. Recently, the turmoil in credit markets and the broader economy has
contributed to extreme price and volume fluctuations in global stock markets that have reduced the
market price of many technology company stocks, including ours. Further declines in our stock price
or the failure of our stock price to recover from
61
previous declines, as well as any marked decline in our level of revenues or gross margins,
increase the risk that goodwill and intangible assets may become impaired in future periods. We
cannot accurately predict the amount and timing of any impairment of assets.
Our ability to develop, market and sell products could be harmed if we are unable to retain or hire
key personnel.
Our future success depends upon our ability to recruit and retain the services of executive,
engineering, sales, marketing and support personnel. The supply of highly qualified individuals, in
particular engineers in very specialized technical areas, or sales people specializing in the
service provider and enterprise markets, is limited and competition for such individuals is
intense. None of our officers or key employees is bound by an employment agreement for any specific
term. The loss of the services of any of our key employees, the inability to attract or retain
personnel in the future or delays in hiring required personnel, particularly engineers and sales
people, and the complexity and time involved in replacing or training new employees, could delay
the development and introduction of new products, and negatively impact our ability to market, sell
or support our products.
Our products are highly technical and if they contain undetected errors, our business could be
adversely affected and we might have to defend lawsuits or pay damages in connection with any
alleged or actual failure of our products and services.
Our products are highly technical and complex, are critical to the operation of many networks and,
in the case of our security products, provide and monitor network security and may protect valuable
information. Our products have contained and may contain one or more undetected errors, defects or
security vulnerabilities. Some errors in our products may only be discovered after a product has
been installed and used by end customers. Any errors, defects or security vulnerabilities
discovered in our products after commercial release could result in loss of revenues or delay in
revenue recognition, loss of customers, loss of future business, and increased service and warranty
cost, any of which could adversely affect our business and results of operations. Also, in the
event an error, defect or vulnerability is attributable to a component supplied by a third-party
vendor, we may not be able to recover from the vendor all of the costs of remediation that we may
incur. In addition, we could face claims for product liability, tort or breach of warranty.
Defending a lawsuit, regardless of its merit, is costly and may divert managements attention. In
addition, if our business liability insurance coverage is inadequate or future coverage is
unavailable on acceptable terms or at all, our financial condition could be harmed.
A breach of network security could harm public perception of our security products, which could
cause us to lose revenues.
If an actual or perceived breach of network security occurs in the network of a customer of our
security products, regardless of whether the breach is attributable to our products, the market
perception of the effectiveness of our products could be harmed. This could cause us to lose
current and potential end customers or cause us to lose current and potential value-added resellers
and distributors. Because the techniques used by computer hackers to access or sabotage networks
change frequently and generally are not recognized until launched against a target, we may be
unable to anticipate these techniques.
If our products do not interoperate with our customers networks, installations will be delayed or
cancelled and could harm our business.
Our products are designed to interface with our customers existing networks, each of which have
different specifications and utilize multiple protocol standards and products from other vendors.
Many of our customers networks contain multiple generations of products that have been added over
time as these networks have grown and evolved. Our products will be required to interoperate with
many or all of the products within these networks as well as future products in order to meet our
customers requirements. If we find errors in the existing software or defects in the hardware used
in our customers networks, we may have to modify our software or hardware to fix or overcome these
errors so that our products will interoperate and scale with the existing software and hardware,
which could be costly and negatively impact our operating results. In addition, if our products do
not interoperate with those of our customers networks, demand for our products could be adversely
affected or orders for our
62
products could be cancelled. This could hurt our operating results, damage our reputation and
seriously harm our business and prospects.
Governmental regulations affecting the import or export of products could negatively affect our
revenues.
The United States and various foreign governments have imposed controls, export license
requirements and restrictions on the import or export of some technologies, especially encryption
technology. In addition, from time to time, governmental agencies have proposed additional
regulation of encryption technology, such as requiring the escrow and governmental recovery of
private encryption keys. Governmental regulation of encryption technology and regulation of imports
or exports, or our failure to obtain required import or export approval for our products, could
harm our international and domestic sales and adversely affect our revenues. In addition, failure
to comply with such regulations could result in penalties, costs and restrictions on export
privileges,
We are required to expense equity compensation given to our employees, which has reduced our
reported earnings, will significantly harm our operating results in future periods and may reduce
our stock price and our ability to effectively utilize equity compensation to attract and retain
employees.
We historically have used stock options and other equity awards as a significant component of our
employee compensation program in order to align employees interests with the interests of our
stockholders, encourage employee retention, and provide competitive compensation packages. The
Financial Accounting Standards Board has adopted changes that require companies to record a charge
to earnings for employee stock option grants and other equity incentives. We adopted this standard
effective January 1, 2006. By causing us to record significantly increased compensation costs, such
accounting changes have reduced, and will continue to reduce, our reported earnings, and will
significantly harm our operating results in future periods. This may require us to reduce the
availability and amount of equity incentives provided to employees, which may make it more
difficult for us to attract, retain and motivate key personnel. Moreover, if securities analysts,
institutional investors and other investors adopt financial models that include stock option
expense in their primary analysis of our financial results, our stock price could decline as a
result of reliance on these models with higher expense calculations. Each of these results could
materially and adversely affect our business.
Integration of past acquisitions and future acquisitions could disrupt our business and harm our
financial condition and stock price and may dilute the ownership of our stockholders.
We have made, and may continue to make, acquisitions in order to enhance our business. In 2005 we
completed the acquisitions of five private companies. Acquisitions involve numerous risks,
including problems combining the purchased operations, technologies or products, unanticipated
costs, diversion of managements attention from our core businesses, adverse effects on existing
business relationships with suppliers and customers, risks associated with entering markets in
which we have no or limited prior experience and potential loss of key employees. There can be no
assurance that we will be able to successfully integrate any businesses, products, technologies or
personnel that we might acquire. The integration of businesses that we have acquired has been, and
will continue to be, a complex, time consuming and expensive process. Acquisitions may also require
us to issue common stock that dilutes the ownership of our current stockholders, assume
liabilities, record goodwill and non-amortizable intangible assets that will be subject to
impairment testing on a regular basis and potential periodic impairment charges, incur amortization
expenses related to certain intangible assets, and incur large and immediate write-offs and
restructuring and other related expenses, all of which could harm our operating results and
financial condition.
In addition, if we fail in our integration efforts with respect to our acquisitions and are unable
to efficiently operate as a combined organization utilizing common information and communication
systems, operating procedures, financial controls and human resources practices, our business and
financial condition may be adversely affected.
63
Due to the global nature of our operations, economic or social conditions or changes in a
particular country or region could adversely affect our sales or increase our costs and expenses,
which could have a material adverse impact on our financial condition.
We conduct significant sales and customer support operations directly and indirectly through our
distributors and value-added resellers in countries throughout the world and also depend on the
operations of our contract manufacturers and suppliers that are located inside and outside of the
United States. In addition, our research and development and our general and administrative
operations are conducted in the United States as well as other countries. Accordingly, our future
results could be materially adversely affected by a variety of uncontrollable and changing factors
including, among others, political or social unrest, natural disasters, epidemic disease, war, or
economic instability in a specific country or region, trade protection measures and other
regulatory requirements which may affect our ability to import or export our products from various
countries, service provider and government spending patterns affected by political considerations
and difficulties in staffing and managing international operations. Any or all of these factors
could have a material adverse impact on our revenue, costs, expenses, results of operations and
financial condition.
Our products incorporate and rely upon licensed third-party technology and if licenses of
third-party technology do not continue to be available to us or become very expensive, our revenues
and ability to develop and introduce new products could be adversely affected.
We integrate licensed third-party technology into certain of our products. From time to time, we
may be required to license additional technology from third parties to develop new products or
product enhancements. Third-party licenses may not be available or continue to be available to us
on commercially reasonable terms. Our inability to maintain or re-license any third-party licenses
required in our products or our inability to obtain third-party licenses necessary to develop new
products and product enhancements, could require us to obtain substitute technology of lower
quality or performance standards or at a greater cost, any of which could harm our business,
financial condition and results of operations.
While we believe that we currently have adequate internal control over financial reporting, we are
exposed to risks from legislation requiring companies to evaluate those internal controls.
Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires our management to report on, and our
independent auditors to attest to, the effectiveness of our internal control over financial
reporting. We have an ongoing program to perform the system and process evaluation and testing
necessary to comply with these requirements. We have and will continue to incur significant
expenses and devote management resources to Section 404 compliance on an ongoing basis. In the
event that our chief executive officer, chief financial officer or independent registered public
accounting firm determine in the future that our internal controls over financial reporting are not
effective as defined under Section 404, investor perceptions may be adversely affected and could
cause a decline in the market price of our stock.
Regulation of the telecommunications industry could harm our operating results and future
prospects.
The telecommunications industry is highly regulated and our business and financial condition could
be adversely affected by changes in the regulations relating to the telecommunications industry.
Currently, there are few laws or regulations that apply directly to access to or commerce on IP
networks. We could be adversely affected by regulation of IP networks and commerce in any country
where we operate. Such regulations could address matters such as voice over the Internet or using
Internet Protocol, encryption technology, and access charges for service providers. In addition,
regulations have been adopted with respect to environmental matters, such as the Waste Electrical
and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) and Restriction of the Use of Certain Hazardous Substances in
Electrical and Electronic Equipment (RoHS) regulations adopted by the European Union, as well as
regulations prohibiting government entities from purchasing security products that do not meet
specified local certification criteria. Compliance with such regulations may be costly and
time-consuming for us and our suppliers and partners. The adoption and implementation of such
regulations could decrease demand for our products, and at the same time could increase the cost of
building and selling our products as well as impact our ability to ship products into
64
affected areas and recognize revenue in a timely manner, which could have a material adverse effect
on our business, operating results and financial condition.
The investment of our cash balance and our investments in government and corporate debt securities
are subject to risks which may cause losses and affect the liquidity of these investments.
At September 30, 2008, we had $1,778.5 million in cash and cash equivalents and $353.2 million in
short- and long-term investments. We have invested these amounts primarily in U.S. government
securities, corporate notes and bonds, commercial paper, and money market funds meeting certain
criteria. Certain of these investments are subject to general credit, liquidity, market and
interest rate risks, which may be exacerbated by U.S. sub-prime mortgage defaults that have
affected various sectors of the financial markets and caused credit and liquidity issues. These
market risks associated with our investment portfolio may have a negative adverse effect on our
results of operations, liquidity and financial condition.
Uninsured losses could harm our operating results.
We self-insure against many business risks and expenses, such as intellectual property litigation
and our medical benefit programs, where we believe we can adequately self-insure against the
anticipated exposure and risk or where insurance is either not deemed cost-effective or is not
available. We also maintain a program of insurance coverage for various types of property,
casualty, and other risks. We place our insurance coverage with various carriers in numerous
jurisdictions. The types and amounts of insurance that we obtain vary from time to time and from
location to location, depending on availability, cost, and our decisions with respect to risk
retention. The policies are subject to deductibles, policy limits and exclusions that result in our
retention of a level of risk on a self-insurance basis. Losses not covered by insurance could be
substantial and unpredictable and could adversely affect our results of operations.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.
There were no unregistered sales of equity securities during the period covered by this report.

In July 2006 and February 2007, the Companys Board of Directors (the Board) approved a
stock repurchase program (the 2006 Stock Repurchase Program). This program authorized the
Company to purchase up to a total of $2.0 billion of the Companys common stock. In addition,
during March 2008, the Board approved a new stock repurchase program (the 2008 Stock
Repurchase Program) which authorized the Company to purchase up to $1.0 billion of the
Companys common stock. This new program is in addition to the 2006 Stock Repurchase Program.
During the three months ended September 30, 2008, the Company repurchased and retired
13,203,694 shares and 4,750,448 shares of common stock at an average price of $24.52 per share
and $24.66 per share, respectively, under the 2006 Stock Repurchase Program and the 2008 Stock
Repurchase Program. During the nine months ended September 30, 2008, the Company repurchased
and retired 15,359,852 shares and 7,292,084 shares of common stock at an average price of
$24.53 per share and $25.42 per share, respectively, under the 2006 Stock Repurchase Program
and the 2008 Stock Repurchase Program. All shares of common stock purchased under the 2006 and
2008 Stock Repurchase Programs have been retired. As of September 30, 2008, the 2006 Stock
Repurchase Program has no remaining authorized funds. Future share repurchases under |
65
|
|
|
|
|
the 2008 Stock Repurchase Program will be subject to a review of the circumstances in place at
the time and will be made from time to time in private transactions or open market purchases as
permitted by securities laws and other legal requirements. This program may be discontinued at
any time. |
