NOTES TO CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
December 29, 2006
Note A Significant Business Development, Basis of Presentation and Nature of Operations
Significant Business Development On January 26, 2007, Harris Stratex Networks, Inc. (the
Company) completed its merger with Stratex Networks, Inc. or Stratex pursuant to a Formation,
Contribution and Merger Agreement among Harris Corporation, Stratex, and Stratex Merger Corp., as
amended and restated on December 18, 2006 and amended by letter agreement on January 26, 2007 (the
Combination Agreement). On January 26, 2007, pursuant to the Combination Agreement, Stratex Merger
Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, merged with and into Stratex with Stratex as the
surviving corporation (renamed as Harris Stratex Networks Operating Corporation). Concurrently
with the merger of Stratex and Stratex Merger Corp. (the merger), Harris Corporation contributed
the Microwave Communications Division, including $32.1 million in cash, to the Company (the
contribution transaction).
Pursuant to the merger with Stratex, each share of Stratex common stock was converted into
one-fourth of a share of the Companys Class A common stock. As a result of the transaction,
24,733,114 shares of the Companys Class A common stock were issued to the former holders of
Stratex common stock. In the contribution transaction, Harris Corporation contributed the assets of
MCD, including $32.1 million in cash, and, in exchange the Company assumed certain liabilities of
Harris Corporation related to MCD and issued 32,850,965 shares of the Companys Class B common
stock to Harris Corporation. As a result of these transactions, Harris Corporation owned
approximately 57 percent and the former Stratex shareholders owned approximately 43 percent of the
total stock of the Company outstanding immediately following the closing. The Stratex acquisition
will be accounted for as a purchase business combination.
Basis of Presentation The accompanying condensed combined financial statements include the
accounts of the Microwave Communications Division of Harris Corporation (MCD) and Harris
subsidiaries classified as part of MCD. These financial statements have been determined to be the
historical financial statements of Harris Stratex Networks, Inc. As used in these notes, the terms
MCD refers to the combined operations of the Microwave Communications Division of Harris
Corporation. Significant intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated. The combined
financial statements are prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles
for interim financial information and with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission (SEC). Accordingly, they do not include all information and footnotes necessary for a
complete presentation of financial position, results of operations and changes in cash flows in
conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. In the opinion of management, such
financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal, recurring adjustments)
considered necessary for a fair presentation of financial position, results of operations and cash
flows for such periods. The results for the quarter and two quarters ended December 29, 2006 are
not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full fiscal year or any
subsequent period. The balance sheet at June 30, 2006 has been derived from the audited financial
statements but does not include all the information and footnotes required by generally accepted
accounting principles in the United States for annual financial statements.
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ
from those estimates.
The accompanying historical financial statements are presented on a carve-out basis and
reflect the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses that were directly attributable to MCD as it
was operated within Harris Corporation. MCDs combined statements of operations include all of the
related costs of doing business, including an allocation of certain general corporate expenses of
Harris Corporation, which were in support of MCD, including costs for finance, legal, treasury,
purchasing, quality, environmental, safety, human resources, tax, audit and public relations
departments and other corporate and infrastructure costs. MCD was allocated $1.8 million and $1.7
million of these overhead costs related to Harris Corporations shared functions for the quarters
ended December 29, 2006 and December 30, 2005, respectively, and $3.4 million and $3.2 million for
the two quarters ended December 29, 2006 and December 30, 2005, respectively. These costs represent
approximately 10.2 percent and 10.8 percent, respectively, of the total cost of these shared
services in each of the quarters ended December 29, 2006 and December 30, 2005, respectively, and
approximately 10.0 percent and 10.3 percent, respectively, of the total cost of these shared
services in each of the two quarters ended December 29, 2006 and December 30, 2005, respectively.
These cost allocations were primarily based on a ratio of MCD sales to total Harris Corporation
sales multiplied by the total headquarters expense of Harris Corporation. Management believes that
these allocations were made on a reasonable basis.

Note B Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2005, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB Staff Position
(FSP) FAS 123(R)-3, Transition Election Related to Accounting for the Tax Effects of Share-Based
Payment Awards (FSP 123R-3). FSP 123R-3 provides a simplified alternative method to calculate
the beginning pool of excess tax benefits against which excess future deferred tax assets (that
result when the compensation cost recognized for an award exceeds the ultimate tax deduction) could
be written off under FASB Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (Revised 2004)
Share-Based Payment (Statement 123R). The guidance in FSP 123R-3 was effective on November 10,
2005. The Company has determined not to make the one-time election to adopt the alternative
transition method described in FSP 123R-3. The Company has implemented the provisions of Statement
123R following the guidance for calculating the pool of excess tax benefits described in paragraph
81 of Statement 123R and the guidance related to reporting cash flows described in paragraph 68 of
Statement 123R. The Companys determination not to adopt the alternative transition method
described in FSP 123R-3 did not have a material impact its financial position, results of
operations or cash flows.
In March 2006, the FASB ratified Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue 06-3, How Taxes
Collected from Customers and Remitted to Governmental Authorities Should Be Presented in the Income
Statement (That Is, Gross versus Net Presentation) (Issue 06-3). The Task Force reached a
conclusion that the presentation of taxes such as sales, use, value added, and excise taxes on
either a gross (included in revenues and costs) or a net (excluded from revenues and costs) basis
is an accounting policy decision that should be disclosed by a company. In addition, a company
should disclose the amounts of those taxes such as sales, use, value added, and
7
excise taxes that are reported on a gross basis in interim and annual financial statements for each
period for which an income statement is presented if those amounts are significant. The provisions
of Issue 06-3 are effective for interim and annual reporting periods that begin after December 15,
2006. Harris Corporation disclosed in its Fiscal 2006 Form 10-K that MCD recorded taxes collected
from customers and remitted to governmental authorities on a net basis. The early adoption and
implementation of the provisions of Issue 06-3 did not have a material impact on MCDs financial
position, results of operations or cash flows.
In June 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in
Income Taxes an Interpretation of FASB Statement 109 (FIN 48). FIN 48 clarifies the
accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprises financial statements in
accordance with FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. FIN 48 prescribes a
recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and
measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. FIN 48 also provides
guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim
periods, disclosure, and transition. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years that begin after December
15, 2006, which for the Company will be its fiscal 2008. The Company is currently evaluating the
impact FIN 48 will have on its financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair
Value Measurements (Statement 157). Statement 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework
for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about
fair value measurements. Statement 157 applies under other accounting pronouncements that require
fair value measurement in which the FASB concluded that fair value was the relevant measurement,
but does not require any new fair value measurements. Statement 157 will be effective for the
Company beginning in fiscal 2009. The Company is currently evaluating the impact Statement 157 will
have on its financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 158,
Employers Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans (Statement
158), which amends FASB Statements No. 87, Employers Accounting for Pensions; No. 88,
Employers Accounting for Settlements and Curtailments of Defined Benefit Pension Plans and for
Termination Benefits; No. 106, Employers Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than
Pensions; and No. 132(R), Employers Disclosures about Pension and Other Postretirement
Benefits. Statement 158 requires an employer to recognize the overfunded or underfunded status of
a defined benefit postretirement plan as an asset or liability in its statement of financial
position and to recognize changes in that funded status in the year in which the changes occur
through the comprehensive income of a business entity. Statement 158 also requires an employer to
measure the funded status of a plan as of the date of the employers year-end balance sheet, with
limited exceptions. The portion of Statement 158 that requires the recognition of overfunded or
underfunded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan as an asset or liability will be
effective for the Company as of June 29, 2007. The portion of Statement 158 that requires an
employer to measure the funded status of a plan as of the date of the employers year-end balance
sheet will be effective for the Company as of July 3, 2009. The Company is currently evaluating the
impact Statement 158 will have on its financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
In September 2006, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108 Considering the Effects
of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements
(SAB 108). SAB 108 expresses the SECs views regarding the process of quantifying misstatements
in financial statements. The view of the SEC is that the effects of prior year errors in the
balance sheet must be taken into account for the current year income statement financial reporting.
The Company has implemented the provisions of SAB 108 during the first quarter of fiscal 2007 and
it did not have a material impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

During the second quarter ended December 30, 2005, MCD had a $34.9 million write-down of inventory
in the International microwave segment related to product discontinuance.
Note K Income Taxes
MCDs income tax expense for the periods presented has been determined as if it had been a
stand-alone entity, although the actual tax liabilities and tax consequences applied only to Harris
Corporation. MCDs income tax expense relates to income taxes paid or to be paid in international
jurisdictions for which net operating loss carryforwards were not available and domestic taxable
income is deemed offset by tax loss carryforwards for which an income tax valuation allowance had
been previously provided for in the financial statements. During the second quarter of fiscal 2006,
MCD had a $5.7 million increase in certain net operating loss valuation allowances related to the
decision to cease manufacturing activities in Canada, which negatively impacted income tax expense.
The
11
amount of domestic, international and state and local tax loss carryforwards as of December 29,
2006, had MCD been a stand-alone
company, was $78.7 million. Upon the consummation of the merger transaction with Stratex,
these net operating loss carryforwards will not be available to Harris Stratex Networks, Inc.
Note L Subsequent Event
In order to improve operating efficiencies and to create synergies through the consolidation of
facilities, the management of the Company determined on January 29, 2007 to restructure its
Montreal operations and began notifying approximately 200 employees that their employment will be
terminated between April 1, 2007 and September 30, 2007 in the initial phase of the restructuring
plan.
The Company currently anticipates incurring total expenditures ranging from $8.5 million to $9.5
million in connection with this restructuring plan, consisting primarily of employee severance
costs, benefits, and outplacement assistance, all of which will be paid in cash. At present, the
Company is unable to determine whether there will be additional costs associated with this
restructuring plan or to estimate the amount and type of additional costs.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
The Board of Directors and Shareholders of Harris Stratex Networks, Inc.
We have reviewed the condensed combined balance sheet of Harris Stratex Networks, Inc. and
Subsidiaries consisting of The Microwave Communications Division of Harris Corporation and
Subsidiaries as of December 29, 2006, and the related condensed combined statements of operations
for the quarter and two quarters ended December 29, 2006 and December 30, 2005, and the condensed
combined statements of cash flows for the two quarters ended December 29, 2006 and December 30,
2005. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys management.
We conducted our review in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying
analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting
matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the
standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, the objective of which is the
expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do
not express such an opinion.
Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the
condensed combined financial statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with U.S.
generally accepted accounting principles.
We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting
Oversight Board (United States), the combined balance sheets of The Microwave Communications
Division of Harris Corporation and subsidiaries as of June 30, 2006, and the related combined
statements of operations, cash flows, and comprehensive income (loss) and division equity for the
year then ended, not presented herein, and in our report dated August 28, 2006, we expressed an
unqualified opinion on those combined financial statements. In our opinion, the information set
forth in the accompanying condensed combined balance sheet as of June 30, 2006, is fairly stated,
in all material respects, in relation to the combined balance sheet from which it has been derived.

amended (the Exchange Act), which include, without limitation, statements about the market for
our technology, our strategy and competition. Such statements are based upon current expectations
that involve risks and uncertainties. Any statements contained herein that are not statements of
historical fact may be deemed forward-looking statements. For example, the words believes,
anticipates, plans, expects, intends and similar expressions are intended to identify
forward-looking statements. Our actual results and the timing of certain events may differ
significantly from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that might
cause such a discrepancy include, but are not limited to, those discussed below under the headings
Overview, Liquidity, Capital Resources and Financial Strategies and under the discussions of
Risk Factors set forth in the proxy statement/prospectus included in the registration statement
on Form S-4 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 5, 2007. All forward
looking statements in this document are based on information available to us as of the date hereof
and we assume no obligation to update any such forward-looking statements.
Acquisition of Stratex Networks, Inc. and Combination with MCD
As previously reported by the Company in the proxy statement/prospectus forming a part of the
Registration Statement on Form S-4, as amended (Registration No. 333-137980), which was declared
effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 5, 2007 (the S-4), Harris
Corporation and Stratex Networks, Inc., or Stratex entered into a Formation, Contribution and
Merger Agreement dated September 5, 2006, which agreement was amended and restated on December 18,
2006 to, among other things, add the Company and Stratex Merger Corp. (Merger Corp.) as parties
(the Combination Agreement). The Combination Agreement was further amended by the letter
agreement on January 26, 2007. On January 26, 2007, pursuant to the Combination Agreement, Merger
Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, merged with and into Stratex with Stratex as the
surviving corporation, and concurrently with the merger of Stratex and Merger Corp., Harris
Corporation contributed the Microwave Communications Divisions (MCD), including $32.1 million in
cash, to the Company. In addition, Stratex changed its name to Harris Stratex Networks Operating
Corporation.
Pursuant to the merger, each share of Stratex common stock was converted into one-fourth of a
share of the Companys Class A common stock, and, as a result, approximately 24,733,114 shares of
the Companys Class A common stock were issued to the former holders of Stratex common stock. The
sale of the Companys Class A common stock to the former holder of Stratex common stock was
registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended pursuant to the S-4. Shares of the
Companys Class A common stock are listed on the NASDAQ Global Market under the ticker symbol
HSTX and commenced trading on January 29, 2007.
The merger with Stratex and the contribution of MCD and cash by Harris Corporation will have a
significant impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
Our revenues, cost of revenue and operating expenses will increase in the future as a result of
these transactions. The discussions in this section of this report on Form 10-Q, as well as the
financial statements contained herein, do not reflect the impact of these transactions.

Business Considerations
General
MCD has been a leading global wireless transmission networks solutions provider focused on
providing microwave communications products, systems and services for private network operators and
mobile telecommunications providers. MCDs three segments serve markets for microwave products and
services in North America (North America microwave), International (International microwave) and
network management software solutions worldwide (Network operations). MCD generates revenue, income
and cash flows by developing, manufacturing and selling microwave communications products and
network management software as well as providing related services. MCD generally sells products and
services directly to its customers. MCD utilizes agents and distributors to sell some products and
services, especially in international markets.
Financial information with respect to corporate expenses that were not allocated to MCDs
three business segments is reported as part of corporate allocations expense.
The mission statement of the Company is: Harris Stratex Networks offers the most reliable,
flexible, scalable, and easy to use wireless network solutions in the world for mobile, government
and private networks. Every day, we build lasting customer relationships, grow our company and
build new value for our shareholders by listening to our customers, delivering innovative products
matched to market demand and offering superior service and quality. Were committed to helping
customers meet their competitive demands by building new wireless networks, upgrading existing
networks and providing complete professional services.
Value Drivers of MCDs Businesses and Strategy for Achieving Value
MCD is committed to its mission statement, and MCD believes that executing the mission
statement creates value. Consistent with this commitment, MCD currently focuses on these key value
drivers:
|
|
|
Continue profitable revenue growth in all segments; |
|
|
|
|
Ongoing attention to operating efficiencies and cost reductions; |
|
|
|
|
Maintain an efficient capital structure. |
Continuing Profitable Revenue Growth in All Segments
MCD has endeavored to capitalize on its strength in the North American market by continuing to
win opportunities with public telecommunications providers as well as Federal, state and other
private network operators to meet increasing demand for capacity requirements and the demand for
high-reliability, high-bandwidth networks that are more secure and better protected against natural
and man-made disasters; increase its international revenue by offering new products and expanding
regional sales channels to penetrate major regional mobile telecom operators; and offering
engineering and other professional services for network planning, systems architecture design and
project management as a global competitive advantage.
Focusing on Operating Efficiencies and Cost Reductions
The principal focus areas for operating efficiencies and cost management are: reducing
procurement costs through an emphasis on coordinated supply chain management; reducing product
costs through dedicated engineering resources focused on product design; improving manufacturing
efficiencies across all segments; and optimizing facility utilization.
Key Indicators
The Companys management believes that these value drivers, when implemented, will improve key
indicators such as: net income, revenue, gross profit margin, operating cash flows, total assets as
a percentage of revenue and total equity as a percentage of revenue.
15
Industry-Wide Opportunities, Challenges and Risks
Global trends and developments in the microwave communications markets include:
|
|
|
Continuing build-out of new networks in emerging markets to meet rapid subscriber growth; |
|
|
|
|
Increasing demand for microwave communications due to build-outs for third-generation, or
3G, services rapidly increasing the number of cell sites; |
|
|
|
|
Increasing demand to support capacity needs for new triple-play services; |
|
|
|
|
Continuing fixed-line to mobile-line substitution; |
|
|
|
|
Private networks and public telecommunications operators building high-reliability,
high-bandwidth networks that are more secure and better protected against natural and
man-made disasters; |
|
|
|
|
Continuing global mobile operator consolidation; and |
|
|
|
|
The Federal Communications Commission, or FCC, mandate for a 2 GHz relocation project in calendar 2007. |
The Companys management believes that its experience and capabilities are well aligned with,
and that it is positioned to capitalize on, the market trends noted above. While the Company
believes that these developments generally will have a positive impact on MCDs business, it
remains subject to general economic conditions that could adversely affect its customers. The
Company also remains subject to other risks associated with these markets, including technological
uncertainties; slow market adoption of digital radio or any of MCDs new products; the failure to
obtain and retain expected synergies from the transactions contemplated by the Combination
Agreement; rates of success in executing, managing and integrating key acquisitions and
transactions, including the integration of the operations, personnel and business of Stratex with
those of MCD; the ability to achieve business plans for the Company; the ability to manage and
maintain key customer relationships; the ability to fund debt service obligations through operating
cash flow; the ability to obtain additional financing in the future and react to competitive and
technological changes; the ability to comply with restrictive covenants in the Companys
indebtedness; the ability to compete with a range of other providers of microwave communications
products and services; the effect of technological changes on the Companys businesses; the
functionality or market acceptance of new products that the Company may introduce; the extent to
which the Companys future earnings will be sufficient to cover its fixed charges; the effect of
competition; the failure of the Company to protect its intellectual property rights; currency and
interest rate risks; the impact of political, economic and geographic risks on international sales;
the ability to retain the principal sources of revenue of Stratex and MCD; and future changes in
prices for the Companys products and services.

MCDs revenue for the second quarter of fiscal 2007 was $101.2 million, an increase of 14.1
percent compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2006. Net income for the second quarter of fiscal
2007 was $5.8 million compared to a net loss of $37.4 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2006.
Net income in the second quarter of fiscal 2006 was negatively impacted by inventory write-downs
related to product discontinuances totaling $34.9 million, $0.5 million in severance benefits
related to the restructuring plan which included moving manufacturing from the Montreal, Canada
location to the San Antonio, Texas manufacturing plant, and the related increase in income tax
valuation allowances of $5.7 million as discussed under Note K Income Taxes of the Notes to
Condensed Combined Financial Statements under Part 1, Item 1 above. Revenue increased in the second
quarter of fiscal 2007 in the North America microwave and Network operations segments by 25.7
percent and 13.6 percent, respectively, compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2006. Revenue in
the International Microwave segment was flat in the second quarter of fiscal 2007 compared to the
second quarter of fiscal 2006. The 14.1 percent increase in revenue was due to increased sales of
TRuepoint, MCDs premier product line.
16
Due to higher margins on TRuepoint product line compared to other MCD legacy product lines,
overall margins and net income increased over the prior-year quarter.
Increased demand for MCDs products in North America during the second quarter of fiscal 2007
came from both wireless service providers and private networks. Mobile operators are beginning to
substitute microwave wireless capabilities for leased lines to reduce network operating costs. In
addition, they are expanding their geographic footprint and increasing capacity to handle
high-bandwidth voice, data, and video services. Private network demand also increased significantly
during the second quarter of fiscal 2007, driven by the need for higher bandwidth and by the
availability of Federal grant dollars to improve interoperability of public safety networks.
International demand for MCDs products remained strong during the second quarter of fiscal
2007, as well, with orders significantly outpacing sales, reflecting the continued expansion of the
global customer base. Europe, the Middle East and Africa continued to dominate orders, driven by
the deployment of 3G services and network expansions. Major orders in the second quarter of fiscal
2007 were received from network operators in Romania, Nigeria, Burkina Faso, Gabon, Benin, Niger,
Togo, Kenya, Portugal, Indonesia, Russia, Brazil, and Mexico.

MCDs gross margin (revenue less cost of product sales and services) as a percentage of
revenue was 34.4 percent in the second quarter of fiscal 2007 compared to a negative amount in the
second quarter of fiscal 2006 which was attributable to the $34.9 million write-down of inventory
related to product discontinuance which negatively impacted gross margin. Excluding the impact of
this charge, gross margin increased due to increased shipments of TRuepoint. See Discussion of
Business Segments below for further information.

MCDs engineering, selling and administrative expenses increased from $23.8 million in the
second quarter of fiscal 2006 to $26.8 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2007. As a
percentage of revenue, these expenses were relatively flat, decreasing slightly from 26.8 percent
in the second quarter of fiscal 2006 to 26.5 percent in the second quarter of fiscal 2007. The
increase in engineering, selling, and administrative expenses was primarily related to a $1.8
million gain on the sale of a building in San Antonio, Texas in the second quarter of fiscal 2006,
$1.7 million in costs associated with the merger with Stratex and increased selling costs related
to the 14.1 percent increase in sales. See Discussion of Business Segments below for further

The basis for determining income tax expense for MCD is discussed in Note K Income Taxes of
the Note to Condensed Combined Financial Statements under Part 1, Item 1, above. During the second
quarter of fiscal 2006, we had a $5.7 million increase in net operating loss valuation allowances
related to the decision to cease manufacturing activities in Canada, which negatively impacted
income tax expense. Excluding the impact of this charge, the decrease in tax expense as a percent
of sales was the result of increased income from domestic sales in the second quarter of fiscal
2007 for which there were available tax loss carryforwards. The
17
amount of domestic, international and state and local tax loss carryforwards as of
December 29, 2006, had MCD been a stand-alone company, was $78.7 million. Upon the consummation of
the merger transaction with Stratex, these net operating loss carryforwards will not be available
to Harris Stratex Networks, Inc.

North America microwave segment revenue increased 25.7 percent from the second quarter of
fiscal 2006 to the second quarter of fiscal 2007. This segment had operating income of $5.6 million
in the second quarter of fiscal 2007 compared to $6.3 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2006.
The strengthening market for microwave radios primarily drove the increase in revenue. Demand in
the North America microwave segment was driven primarily by mobile operators that are upgrading and
expanding networks for high bandwidth voice, data and video services and by private networks
upgrading for increased reliability, survivability and interoperability.
The decrease in operating income was primarily due to increased engineering, selling and
administrative expenses in the second quarter of fiscal 2007 when compared to the second quarter of
fiscal 2006 due to higher engineering costs and $1.0 million of third party and internal costs for
legal expenses, integration planning and support and tax advice related to the merger with Stratex.

International microwave segment revenue decreased 0.3 percent from the second quarter of
fiscal 2006 to the second quarter of fiscal 2007. This segment had operating income of $2.3 million
in the second quarter of fiscal 2007 compared to an operating loss of $36.8 million in the second
quarter of fiscal 2006. Operating loss in the second quarter of fiscal 2006 was negatively impacted
by inventory write-downs related to product discontinuances totaling $34.9 million and $0.5 million
in severance benefits related to a restructuring plan which included moving manufacturing at the
Montreal, Canada location to the San Antonio, Texas manufacturing plant.
Excluding the impact of these charges, operating income would have increased primarily due to
improved gross margins in the second quarter of fiscal 2007 as a result of increased shipments of
the TRuepoint product line. The engineering, selling and administrative expenses increased in the
second quarter of fiscal 2007 compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2006, however, due to an
increase in engineering costs and $0.6 million of third party and internal costs for legal
expenses, integration planning and support and tax advice related to the merger with Stratex.

Network operations segment revenue increased 13.6 percent from the second quarter of fiscal
2006 to the second quarter of fiscal 2007. This segment had operating income of $0.1 million in the
second quarter of fiscal 2007 compared to $0.5 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2006. The
increase in revenue was due to increased orders. The decrease in operating income resulted from a
mix
18
shift from higher margin software revenue to lower margin services revenue year over year,
increased amortization of capitalized software and increased selling expenses.

MCDs revenue for the first two quarters of fiscal 2007 was $194.8 million, an increase of
12.3 percent compared to the first two quarters of fiscal 2006. Net income for the first two
quarters of fiscal 2007 was $10.6 million compared to a $31.7 million loss in the first two
quarters of fiscal 2006. Revenue increased in the North America microwave, International microwave
and Network operations segments by 17.8 percent, 5.4 percent and 13.1 percent, respectively. Net
income in the first two quarters of fiscal 2006 was negatively impacted by inventory write-downs
related to product discontinuances totaling $34.9 million, $0.5 million in severance benefits
related to the restructuring plan which included moving manufacturing at the Montreal, Canada
location to the San Antonio, Texas manufacturing plant and the related increase in income tax
valuation allowances of $5.7 million. The 12.3 percent increase in revenue was due to increased
sales of TRuepoint, MCDs premier product line. Due to higher margins on TRuepoint product line
compared to other MCD legacy product lines, overall margins and net income increased over the
prior-year two quarters.
As in the second quarter, increased demand for MCDs products in North America during the
first half of fiscal 2007 came from both wireless service providers and private networks because
mobile operators began to substitute microwave wireless capabilities for leased lines to reduce
network operating costs and they are expanding their geographic footprint and increasing capacity
to handle high-bandwidth voice, data, and video services. Private network demand also increased
significantly during the first two quarters of fiscal 2007 compared to the first two quarters of
fiscal 2006, driven by the need for higher bandwidth and by the availability of Federal grant
dollars to improve interoperability of public safety networks.
International demand for MCDs products remained strong during the first half of fiscal 2007
compared to the first half of fiscal 2006 as well, with orders significantly outpacing sales,
reflecting the continued expansion of the global customer base. Europe, the Middle East and Africa
continued to dominate orders, driven by the deployment of 3G services and network expansions. Major
orders in the first half of fiscal 2007 were received from network operators in Romania, Nigeria,
Burkina Faso, Gabon, Benin, Niger, Togo, Kenya, Portugal, Indonesia, Russia, Brazil, and Mexico.

MCDs gross margin (revenue less cost of product sales and services) as a percentage of
revenue was 33.7 percent in the first two quarters of fiscal 2007 compared to 11.9 percent in the
first two quarters of fiscal 2006. During the second quarter of 2006, we had a $34.9 million
write-down of inventory related to product discontinuance which negatively impacted gross margin.

MCDs engineering, selling and administrative expenses increased from $43.0 million in the
first two quarters of fiscal 2006 to $50.7 million in the first two quarters of fiscal 2007. The
increase in engineering, selling, and administrative expenses was primarily related to a $1.8
million gain on the sale of a building in San Antonio, Texas in the second quarter of fiscal 2006,
$1.7 million in costs associated with the merger transaction with Stratex in fiscal 2007 and increased selling
costs related to the 12.3 percent increase in sales in fiscal 2007.

The basis for determining income tax expense for MCD is discussed in Note K Income Taxes of
the Note to Condensed Combined Financial Statements under Part 1, Item 1, above. During the first
two quarters of fiscal 2006, there was a $5.7 million increase in net operating loss valuation
allowances related to the decision to cease manufacturing activities in Canada, which negatively
impacted income tax expense. Excluding the impact of this charge, the increase in tax expense as a
percent of income before income taxes resulted from a decrease in income from domestic sales on a year over year basis.
The amount of domestic, international and state and local tax loss carryforwards as of December 29,
2006, had MCD been a stand-alone company, was $78.7 million. Upon the consummation of the merger
transaction with Stratex, these net operating loss carryforwards will not be available to Harris
Stratex Networks, Inc.

North America microwave segment revenue increased 17.8 percent from the first two quarters of
fiscal 2006 to the first two quarters of fiscal 2007. This segment had operating income of $8.6
million in the first two quarters of fiscal 2007 compared to $12.7 million in the first two
quarters of fiscal 2006. The strengthening market for microwave radios primarily drove the increase
in revenue. Demand in the North America microwave segment was driven primarily by mobile operators
that are upgrading and expanding networks for high bandwidth voice, data and video services and by
private networks upgrading for increased reliability, survivability and interoperability.
The decrease in operating income was primarily due to a change in product mix in the first
quarter of fiscal 2007 due to two key customers buying a large volume of radios at lower margins
compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2006 combined with increased engineering, selling and
administrative expenses in the first two quarters of fiscal 2007 when compared to the first two
quarters of fiscal 2006 due to higher selling
expenses, engineering costs and $1.0 million of third party and internal costs for legal
expenses, integration planning and support and tax advice related to the merger with Stratex.

International microwave segment revenue increased 5.4 percent from the first two quarters of
fiscal 2006 to the first two quarters of fiscal 2007. This segment had operating income of $5.9
million in the first two quarters of fiscal 2007 compared to an operating loss of $35.7 million in
the first two quarters of fiscal 2006. Operating loss in the first two quarters of fiscal 2006 was
negatively impacted by inventory write-downs related to product discontinuances totaling $34.9
million, $0.5 million in severance benefits related to the restructuring plan which included moving
manufacturing at the Montreal, Canada location to the San Antonio, Texas manufacturing plant. The
success of this segments TRuepoint radio products and a strengthening market for microwave radios
primarily drove the increase in revenue.
Excluding the impact of these charges, the increase in operating income was primarily due to
improved gross margins in the first two quarters of fiscal 2007 as a result of increased shipments
of the TRuepoint product line, although engineering, selling and administrative expenses were
higher in the first two quarters of fiscal 2007 than in the comparable period of fiscal 2006.

million in the first two quarters of fiscal 2007 compared to $0.6 million in the first two quarters
of fiscal 2006. The increase in revenue was due to increased orders. The decrease in operating
income was driven by a product mix shift from higher margin software revenue to lower margin
services revenue year over year, increased amortization of capitalized software and increased
selling expenses.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
MCDs cash and cash equivalents decreased by $1.6 million to $12.2 million at the end of the
second quarter of fiscal 2007, primarily due to cash used in operations of $5.7 million and $5.0
million in additions of property, plant and equipment and capitalized software. These uses of cash
were partially offset by $8.5 million of cash and other transfers from Harris Corporation.
Management currently believes that existing cash, funds generated from operations, and access
to the public and private debt and equity markets will be sufficient to provide for the Companys
anticipated requirements for working capital, and capital expenditures for the next 12 months and
the foreseeable future. On January 26, 2007, the Company acquired Stratex and received $32.1
million in cash from Harris Corporation as part of the completion of the merger and the
contribution transaction under the Combination Agreement. Some of this cash will be used in the
integration and restructuring activities of Harris Stratex during the next six to nine months and
other significant non-operational cash payments are not anticipated in fiscal 2007. The financial
information concerning the Companys liquidity and capital resources contained in this report on
Form 10-Q do not include any financial information about Stratex or financial information of MCD as
of the closing date of the transactions under the Combination Agreement.
There can be no assurance, however, that the Companys business will generate cash flow, or
that anticipated operational improvements will be achieved. If the Company is unable to maintain
cash balances or generate sufficient cash flow from operations to service its obligations, the
Company may be required to sell assets, reduce capital expenditures, or obtain financing. The
Companys ability to make scheduled principal payments or pay interest on or refinance any future
indebtedness depends on its future performance and financial results, which, to a certain extent,
are subject to general conditions in or affecting the microwave communications market and to
general economic, political, financial, competitive, legislative and regulatory factors beyond the
Companys control.
Net Cash Used in Operating Activities
MCDs net cash used in operating activities was $5.7 million in the first two quarters of
fiscal 2007 compared to $7.9 million in the first two quarters of fiscal 2006. The improvement in
cash flow was primarily due to higher profitability on increased sales, a decrease in receivables
and an increase in advance payments and unearned income. This was somewhat offset by uses of cash
for unbilled costs and inventory, payments to Harris Corporation for operating items and a decrease
in accounts payable and accrued expenses. The increase in inventories was due to the build-up of
several large projects scheduled to ship during the second half of fiscal 2007.
Net Cash (Used in) Provided by Investing Activities
MCDs net cash used in investing activities was $5.0 million in the first two quarters of
fiscal 2007 compared to net cash provided by investing activities of $1.5 million in the first two
quarters of fiscal 2006. Net cash used in investing activities in the first two quarters of fiscal
2007 was primarily for $3.1 million additions of capitalized software and $1.9 million additions of
plant and equipment. Net cash provided by investing activities in the first two quarters of fiscal
2006 was primarily due to $4.6 million proceeds from the sale of land and building in San Antonio,
Texas. This was partially offset by $0.9 million additions of capitalized software and $2.2 million
additions of plant and equipment.
Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities
MCDs net cash provided by financing activities in the first two quarters of fiscal 2007 was
$8.4 million compared to $6.4 million in the first two quarters of fiscal 2006. The net cash
provided by financing activities for MCD came primarily from net cash transfers from Harris
Corporation.
22
Commercial Commitments
The Company has entered into commercial commitments in the normal course of business including
surety bonds, standby letter of credit agreements and other arrangements with financial
institutions and customers primarily relating to the guarantee of future performance on certain
contracts to provide products and services to customers or to obtain insurance policies with its
insurance carriers. At December 29, 2006, the Company had commercial commitments on outstanding
letters of credit, guarantees and other arrangements, as follows:

Impact of Foreign Exchange
The impact of translating the assets and liabilities of foreign operations to U.S. dollars is
included as a component of division equity. At December 29, 2006, the cumulative translation
adjustment decreased division equity by $4.9 million compared to a reduction of $1.5 million at
June 30, 2006. MCD has utilized foreign currency hedging instruments to minimize the currency risk
of international transactions. Gains and losses resulting from currency rate fluctuations did not
have a material effect on MCDs results in fiscal 2007 or 2006.
Impact of Inflation
To the extent feasible, MCD has consistently followed the practice of adjusting its prices to
reflect the impact of inflation on salaries and fringe benefits for employees and the cost of
purchased materials and services.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The following is not intended to be a comprehensive list of all of MCDs accounting policies
or estimates. In preparing the financial statements and accounting for the underlying transactions
and balances, the Company applies its accounting policies and estimates as disclosed in such Notes.
The Company considers the estimates discussed below as critical to an understanding of the MCD
financial statements because their application places the most significant demands on the Companys
judgment, with financial reporting results relying on estimates about the effect of matters that
are inherently uncertain. Specific risks for these critical accounting estimates are described in
the following paragraphs. The impact and any associated risks related to these estimates on the
MCDs business operations are discussed throughout this MD&A where such estimates affect MCDs
reported and expected financial results. MCD makes estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amount of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the
date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimates.
Besides estimates that meet the critical accounting estimate criteria, the Company makes
many other accounting estimates in preparing its financial statements and related disclosures. All
estimates, whether or not deemed critical, affect reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue
and expenses as well as disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. Estimates are based on
experience and other information available prior to the issuance of the financial statements.
Materially different results can occur as circumstances change and additional information becomes
known, including for estimates that the Company does not deem critical.
23
Provisions for Excess and Obsolete Inventory
MCDs inventory has been valued at the lower of cost or market. The Company balances the need
to maintain prudent inventory levels to ensure competitive delivery performance with the risk of
excess or obsolete inventory due to changing technology and customer requirements. The Company
regularly reviews inventory quantities on hand and records a provision for excess and obsolete
inventory based primarily on its estimated forecast of product demand, anticipated end of product
life and production requirements. The review of excess and obsolete inventory primarily relates to
the microwave business segments. Several factors may influence the sale and use of the Companys
inventories, including decisions to exit a product line, technological change and new product
development. These factors could result in a change in the amount of obsolete inventory quantities
on hand. Additionally, the Companys estimates of future product demand may prove to be inaccurate,
in which case the provision required for excess and obsolete inventory may be overstated or
understated. In the future, if the Company determines that its inventory is overvalued, the Company
would be required to recognize such costs in cost of product sales and services in its statement of
operations at the time of such determination. Likewise, if the Company determines its inventory is
undervalued, the Company may have overstated cost of product sales and services may have been
overstated in previous periods and would be required to recognize such additional income. MCD did
not make any material changes in the reserve methodology used to establish its inventory loss
reserves during the past three fiscal years.
As of December 29, 2006, MCDs reserve for excess and obsolete inventory was $15.6 million, or
15.5 percent of the gross inventory balance, which compares to a reserve of $18.2 million, or 20.2
percent of the gross inventory balance as of June 30, 2006. In the first two quarters of fiscal
2006, MCD had significant write-downs in inventory due to the discontinuance of legacy products in
the International microwave segment. Although the Company makes every reasonable effort to ensure
the accuracy of its forecasts of future product demand, including the impact of planned future
product launches, any significant unanticipated changes in demand or technological developments
could have a significant impact on the value of the Companys inventory and the Companys reported
operating results.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue primarily relates to product sales (other than for long-term contracts) and service
arrangements, which are recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the fee is
fixed or determinable, collectibility is probable, delivery of a product has occurred and title and
risk of loss have transferred or services have been rendered. Further, if an arrangement other than
a long-term contract requires the delivery or performance of multiple deliverables or elements
under a bundled sale, we determine whether the individual elements represent separate units of
accounting under the requirements of Emerging Issues Task Force Issue 00-21, Revenue Arrangements
with Multiple Deliverables (EITF 00-21). If the separate elements meet the requirements listed in
EITF 00-21, we recognize the revenue associated with each element separately. If the elements
within a bundled sale are not considered separate units of accounting, the delivery of an
individual element is considered not to have occurred if there are undelivered elements that are
essential to the functionality.
Revenue recognition from long-term contracts is recorded on a percentage-of-completion basis,
generally using the cost-to-cost method of accounting where sales and profits are recorded based on
the ratio of costs incurred to estimated total costs at completion. Recognition of profit on
long-term contracts requires estimates of: the total contract value; the total cost at completion;
and the measurement of progress towards completion. Contracts are combined when specific
aggregation criteria stated in the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Statement of
Position No. 81-1, Accounting for Performance of Construction-Type and Certain Production-Type
Contracts (SOP 81-1), are met. Amounts representing contract change orders, claims or other items
are included in sales only when they can be reliably estimated and realization is probable. When
adjustments in contract value or estimated costs are determined, any changes from prior estimates
are reflected in earnings in the current period. Anticipated losses on contracts or programs in
progress are charged to earnings when identified.
Revenue recognition for internally developed capitalized software is in accordance with
Statement of Position 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition (SOP 97-2). Typically, our capitalized
software sales do not have acceptance criteria in the contracts and proper documentation of Vendor
Specific Objective Evidence (VSOE) is obtained before revenue is allocated to the various elements
of the arrangement in accordance with SOP 97-2.
Royalty income is recognized on the basis of terms specified in the contractual agreements.
Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
As described in Note B Recent Accounting Pronouncements in the Notes to Condensed Combined
Financial Statements beginning on page 6 of this Form 10-Q, there are accounting pronouncements
that have recently been issued but have not yet been
24
implemented by MCD. Note B describes the potential impact that these pronouncements are
expected to have on MCDs financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
The Company uses foreign exchange contracts and options to hedge both balance sheet and
off-balance sheet future foreign currency commitments. Generally, these foreign exchange contracts
offset foreign currency denominated inventory and purchase commitments from suppliers; accounts
receivable from, and future committed sales to, customers; and intercompany loans. The Company
believes the use of foreign currency financial instruments should reduce the risks that arise from
doing business in international markets. At December 29, 2006, MCD had open foreign exchange
contracts with a notional amount of $8.7 million, of which $0.7 million were classified as cash
flow hedges and $8.0 million were classified as fair value hedges. That compares to total foreign
exchange contracts with a notional amount of $19.4 million as of June 30, 2006, of which $7.1
million were classified as cash flow hedges and $12.3 million were classified as fair value hedges.
At December 29, 2006, contract expiration dates ranged from less than one month to 6 months with a
weighted average contract life of less than a month. More specifically, the foreign exchange
contracts classified as cash flow hedges have been used primarily to hedge currency exposures from
anticipated cash flow expenses related to MCDs Mexican office. As of Decmeber 29, 2006, MCD
estimated that a pre-tax gain of less than $0.1 million would be reclassified into earnings from
comprehensive income within the next 6 months related to these cash flow hedges. The net gain
included in MCDs earnings in the quarter and two quarters ended December 29, 2006 and December 30,
2005 representing the amount of fair value and cash flow hedges ineffectiveness was not material.
No amounts were recognized in MCDs earnings in the quarter and two quarters ended December 29,
2006 and December 30, 2005 related to the component of the derivative instruments gain or loss
excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness. In addition, no amounts were recognized in
MCDs earnings in the quarter and two quarters ended December 29, 2006 and December 30, 2005
related to hedged firm commitments that no longer qualify as fair value hedges. All of these
derivatives were recorded at their fair value on the balance sheet in accordance with Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities, or Statement 133. Factors that could impact the effectiveness of MCDs hedging
programs for foreign currency include accuracy of sales estimates, volatility of currency markets
and the cost and availability of hedging instruments. A 10 percent adverse change in currency
exchange rates for MCDs foreign currency derivatives held at December 29, 2006 would have an
impact of less than $0.1 million on the fair value of such instruments. This quantification of
exposure to the market risk associated with foreign exchange financial instruments does not take
into account the offsetting impact of changes in the fair value of MCDs foreign denominated
assets, liabilities and firm commitments.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures: We maintain disclosure controls and
procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports
filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within

without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be
disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to
management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to
allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Our management evaluated, with the
participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of our
disclosure controls and procedures as of December 29, 2006.
(b) Changes in internal control: There have been no changes in our internal control over
financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended December 29, 2006 that have
materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over
financial reporting.

filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 5, 2007. The risks and uncertainties
that we have disclosed have the potential to materially affect our business, financial condition,
