NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1BASIS OF PRESENTATION
These statements should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 3, 2010. The operating results for the three-month and six-month periods ended July 4, 2010 and cash flows for the six-month period ended July 4, 2010, are not necessarily indicative of the results that will be achieved for the full fiscal year ending January 2, 2011 or for future periods.
The accompanying consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared without audit and reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods. Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. Estimates are used for, but not limited to, the accounting for the allowance for doubtful accounts, inventory valuation, restructuring costs, goodwill and intangible asset valuation, impairment costs, depreciation and amortization, sales returns and discounts, warranty costs, derivative valuation, uncertain tax positions and the recoverability of deferred tax assets, stock compensation, contingencies and the fair value of assets and liabilities disclosed. Actual results and outcomes may differ from management's estimates and assumptions. The statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Certain information and footnote disclosures, normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such SEC rules and regulations.
The balance sheet at January 3, 2010 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. The accompanying interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in Power-One, Inc.'s ("the Company") Form 10-K for the year ended January 3, 2010.
The Company's reporting period coincides with the 52- to 53-week period ending on the Sunday closest to December 31, and its fiscal quarters are the 13- to 14-week periods ending on the Sunday nearest to March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31. The three-month and six month periods ended July 4, 2010 and June 28, 2009 were 13-week and 26-week periods, respectively.
NOTE 2CHANGES TO SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND RELATED DISCLOSURES
Recent Pronouncements and Accounting ChangesIn January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2010-06, an update that improves the requirements related to Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures Subtopic 820-10 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") originally issued as FASB Statement 157. This update requires disclosures about transfers between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 assets and the disaggregated activity in the roll forward for level 3 Fair Value measurements. The Company adopted the measurement requirements of this guidance for the six months ended July 4, 2010 with no impact to the consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 2CHANGES TO SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND RELATED DISCLOSURES (Continued)
In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-13, "Multiple- Deliverable Revenue Arrangements a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force," ("ASU 2009-13"). This update provides amendments to the criteria of ASC 605, "Revenue Recognition," for separating consideration in multiple- deliverable arrangements. The amendments to this update establish a selling price hierarchy for determining the selling price of a deliverable. This Accounting Standards Update will be applied on a prospective basis for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010, with earlier application permitted. Alternatively, an entity can elect to adopt this standard on a retrospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating the potential impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.
NOTE 3FAIR VALUE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
ASC 820, "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures" establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair values into three levels as follows:
The following table presents the fair values of the Company's financial instruments (in millions):

Change in fair value of derivative liability |
(0.5 | ) | ||
Embedded Put Options (at July 4, 2010) |
$ | 0.2 | ||
The fair value of the Embedded Put Options was determined using the Binomial model, using a stock price of $6.94, volatility factor of 82%, risk-free interest rate of 1.42%, contractual term of 3.8 years and a probability factor of 8.9%. During the quarter and six months ended July 4, 2010, the Company recorded an unrealized gain of $0.3 million and $0.5 million, respectively, as other income in the consolidated statement of operations resulting from the change in fair value of the embedded put option.

In accordance with ASC 350, "IntangiblesGoodwill and Other," the Company reviews goodwill and intangible assets for impairment annually at the end of each fiscal August, or more often if events or circumstances indicate that impairment may have occurred. In addition to the testing above, which is done on an annual basis, management considers whether certain impairment indicators are present in assessing whether the carrying value of goodwill and other intangible assets may be impaired. As a result of the continued decrease in its market capitalization during the first quarter of fiscal 2009, the Company tested its goodwill for impairment in accordance with ASC 350-20 and determined that goodwill was impaired. The Company's testing approach utilized a discounted cash flow analysis and comparative market multiples to determine the entity's (single reporting unit) fair value for comparison to its carrying value. As the Company's carrying value exceeded its estimated fair value as of March 29, 2009, the Company applied the approach prescribed in ASC 350-20 for determining the impairment amount. As a result of the Company's interim test, a goodwill impairment charge of $57.0 million was recorded in the Company's consolidated condensed statements of operations during the six months ended June 28, 2009.

On April 23, 2009, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with Silver Lake Sumeru Fund, L.P. and Silver Lake Technology Investors Sumeru, L.P. (collectively, "Silver Lake Sumeru") pursuant to which Silver Lake Sumeru invested $60 million of new capital in the Company. As a result of the transaction, the Company issued $36.4 million in aggregate principal amount of senior convertible notes due 2019 (the "New Notes). The principal sum of the New Notes is due on May 8, 2019. The Company may force redemption of the New Notes between the 2.5 year anniversary date and the five year anniversary date if the Company's common stock price is 300% of the conversion price. Holders of the Notes may force redemption after year five, and annually thereafter, for an amount equaling principal plus accrued interest. Interest relating to the notes is paid semi-annually at a rate of 6% per year the first year, 8% the second year and 10% thereafter. The New Notes are convertible into Power-One common stock at a conversion price of $1.35. The conversion

NOTE 11LONG-TERM DEBT (Continued)
price is subject to adjustment under certain circumstances. There are no financial covenants relating to the New Notes; however, there are certain restrictions that limit the sale of assets, and the incurrence of liens and debt.
The Company's 8% Senior Secured Convertible Notes, due 2013 ("8% Notes"), are governed by an indenture, dated as of June 17, 2008 between the Company and The Bank of New York Trust Company, N.A., as trustee. The Notes bear interest at a rate of 8% per annum, payable in cash in arrears on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year. The 8% Notes will mature on June 17, 2013. The 8% Notes rank equal in right of payment with all of the Company's existing and any future senior unsecured indebtedness that is not subordinated by its terms. The 8% Notes are convertible, at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the maturity date, into shares of common stock of the Company, $0.001 par value per share (the "Common Stock"), at an adjusted conversion rate of 500 shares of Common Stock per $1,000 in principal amount of the 8% Notes (which is equivalent to an adjusted conversion price of $2.00 per share), subject to certain adjustments set forth therein. The Company has the right to redeem some or all of the 8% Notes on or after June 17, 2010, if the closing price of the Common Stock as reported on The Nasdaq Global Market exceeds for twenty (20) or more trading days out of a thirty (30) consecutive trading day period, 175% of the conversion price of the 8% Notes. The redemption price will be equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 8% Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date, and the present value of all remaining interest on the 8% Notes through and including the maturity date.
On July 2, 2010, the Company sent a redemption notice to registered holders of its 8% Notes that is called for the redemption of all outstanding Notes on August 11, 2010, the Redemption Date. Pursuant to the terms of the indenture governing the Notes, all Notes outstanding on the Redemption Date will be redeemed at a redemption price of $1,139.29 per $1,000 principal amount Note, which includes accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the Redemption Date, payable in cash. Pursuant to the terms of the Notes and in lieu of receiving the cash redemption price, holders of the Notes may convert their Notes prior to the Redemption Date into shares of the Company's common stock by delivering a conversion notice to The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company N.A., calculated at a conversion rate of 500 shares of common stock for each $1,000 principal amount of Notes converted. As of August 11, 2010 $34.2 million face value of the 8% Notes were converted into 17.1 million shares of the Company's stock. The Company will account for this debt conversion in accordance with ASC 470, "Debt with Conversion and Other Options" as applicable.
During the six months ended July 4, 2010 and June 28, 2009, the Company used $10.0 million net cash to repurchase and extinguish $4.5 million of the 8% Notes and $18.7 million net cash to repurchase and extinguish $28.8 million of the 8% Notes, respectively. The Company recorded a net loss on extinguishment of debt of $5.7 million and a net gain on extinguishment of debt of $8.4 million for the six months ended July 4, 2010 and June 28, 2009, respectively. During the three months ended June 28, 2009, the Company recorded a gain on extinguishment of debt of $5.3 million.
The Company has certain long-term notes payable through fiscal year 2013 held at a European subsidiary. Amounts outstanding at July 4, 2010 and January 3, 2010 related to the notes were $0.2 million, bearing interest at 2%. The long-term notes payable agreement requires the Company's subsidiary to provide certain financial reports to the lender but do not require compliance with any

financial covenants. In addition, this subsidiary has an agreement with a European bank to provide borrowings secured by the subsidiary's land and building over a ten-year period. The initial commitment to lend under this agreement was $9.2 million, with the commitment amount reduced ratably on a quarterly basis beginning March 31, 2004 and ending December 30, 2013. Borrowings outstanding under this secured note payable agreement were $3.5 million and $4.6 million at July 4, 2010 and January 3, 2010, respectively, and bore interest at the EURIBOR plus one and one-half percent (2.3% at July 4, 2010). The agreement contains financial covenants that require a minimum EBITDA as a percentage of net revenue and a maximum percentage of debt to equity.
At July 4, 2010 and January 3, 2010, the Company was in compliance with the debt covenants related to all long-term borrowing arrangements.

NOTE 12CONTINGENCIES
The Company is involved in certain claims and legal proceedings which have arisen in the normal course of business. Management does not believe that the outcome of any currently pending claims or legal proceedings in which the Company is involved will have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flow.
SynQor, Inc. v Power-One, Inc, et. al. United States District Court, Eastern District of Texas, Civil Action No. 2:07cv497 TJW/CE. This action was initiated by SynQor, Inc. against the Company and eight other power supply manufacturers on November 13, 2007. The complaint alleges that certain products of the Company infringe certain patents held by SynQor in relation to unregulated bus converters and/or point of load (POL) converters used in intermediate bus architecture power supply systems. The Company has filed its answer to the complaint denying infringement of the patents alleged, denying all claims of SynQor for entitlement to damages or other relief, and asserting various affirmative defenses, to include invalidity and unenforceability of the applicable patents. Two new patents were subsequently issued to SynQor and SynQor filed motions for leave to amend its complaint to add claims for infringement of the two new patents. SynQor's motions were opposed by the Company and its codefendants, but on September 18, 2009 the Court granted SynQor's motions and deemed the amended complaints filed as of the dates SynQor's motions were filed (July 7, 2009 for the second amended complaint (adding the '083 patent) and July 21, 2009 for the third amended complaint (adding the '702 patent)). On October 2, 2009 Power-One filed its response to the third amended

complaint. Proceedings are in the discovery stage. The claim construction hearing took place in Marshall, Texas on July 13, 2010 and the court issued its Markman ruling on July 26, 2010, substantially adopting Power-One's construction of certain key terms. Trial is scheduled to begin December 6, 2010.
Antonio Canova v. Power-One Italy S.p.A. and Magnetek, Inc. Labor Court, Arezzo, Italy. The former Executive Vice President in charge of Magnetek, Inc.'s Power Electronics Group and the Managing Director of its Italian subsidiary has brought suit in Italy against the Italian subsidiary, and against his former U.S. employer Magnetek, Inc., alleging various causes of action and rights to damages relating to claims of wrongful dismissal of employment, specific Italian employment indemnities, general economic losses, and contractual claims relating specifically to his employment relationship and contracts entered into between himself and Magnetek, Inc. The Company is a party to the lawsuit due to its acquisition of the stock of Magnetek's Italian subsidiary in October 2006. At a hearing held in July 2008, the Judge upheld the Company's motion to dismiss on technical grounds certain of Mr. Canova's claims for monetary damages arising from his alleged unfair dismissal. At a subsequent hearing on April 24, 2009, the Judge issued certain orders with respect to document production and set October 15, 2009 as the hearing date for witness testimony. At the hearing on October 15, 2009, the Judge ordered Power-One to file a copy of the Purchase Agreement between Magnetek Inc., and Power-One, Inc., translated into Italian, by November 15, 2009 and ordered both parties to file summaries of the issues raised at the hearing and to identify those that require further witness testimony. The parties filed their final briefs on April 30, 2010. The final hearing was scheduled for May 28, 2010, but on April 26, 2010, the parties were advised that a new judge had been assigned to preside over the final hearing and that the hearing was postponed until February 11, 2011.
The Company accounts for unrecognized tax positions under ASC 740, "Income Taxes." The total amount of unrecognized tax positions that would impact the effective tax rate is approximately $1.0 million at July 4, 2010 and includes $0.3 million of interest and penalties. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense. Based on its analysis of uncertain tax positions, the Company decreased its estimate of uncertain tax positions by a net $2.7 million during the three and six months ended July 4, 2010. During the six months ended June 28, 2009, the Company reversed certain reserves for uncertain tax positions of approximately $1.4 million due to a closed tax audit.
The Company is currently under routine audits by certain tax authorities. Because timing of the resolution and/or closure of these audits is highly uncertain, it is not possible to estimate resulting changes to the amount of unrecognized tax benefits for positions existing at July 4, 2010 and whether such uncertain income tax positions will significantly increase or decrease prior to January 2, 2011; however, developments in this area could differ from those currently expected. Such unrecognized tax positions, if ever recognized in the financial statements, would be recorded in the consolidated statement of operations as part of the income tax provision.

NOTE 14EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE (EPS)
Basic and diluted earnings per common share ("EPS") are calculated utilizing the "two-class" method. Under the two-class method, EPS is computed by dividing earnings allocated to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Earnings are allocated to both common shares and participating securities based on the respective number of weighted-average shares outstanding for the period. The Company's convertible preferred stock are participating securities due to their participation rights related to cash dividends declared by the Company. If dividends are distributed to the common stockholders, the Company is required to pay dividends to the holders of the preferred stock and common stock pro-rata on an as converted basis. Authoritative guidance issued by the FASB requires net losses attributable to common stockholders to be allocated among common stock and participating securities to the extent that the securities are required to share in the losses. Since the convertible preferred stock is not contractually obligated to share in the Company's losses, no allocation was made to preferred stock for periods where a net loss existed.

Due to the Company's net loss in the three and six month periods ended June 28, 2009, the inclusion of dilutive common share equivalents in the calculation of diluted earnings per share would be anti-dilutive, therefore such common share equivalents have been excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share. Using the treasury stock method, had the Company been in a net income position for the three- and six-month periods ended June 28, 2009, the weighted average common share equivalents of approximately 0.1 million which were outstanding, would have been dilutive.
Using the treasury stock method, the weighted average common share equivalents outstanding during each period that were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because the exercise price for these options was greater than the average market price of the Company's shares of common stock during the three-month periods ended July 4, 2010 and June 28, 2009 were 1.2 million, 11.8 million, respectively, and 1.8 million and 9.9 million during the six- month periods ended July 4, 2010 and June 28, 2009, respectively.
During the three and six month periods ended June 28, 2009, the Company excluded its convertible securities from the diluted earnings per share computation as the effect would be antidilutive. The weighted average common share equivalents outstanding related to convertible debt that were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because their inclusion in the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the three- and six-month periods ended June 28, 2009

During the second quarter of fiscal 2010, the Company began to operate as two reportable business segments in accordance with ASC 280, "Segment Reporting." The Company's chief operating decision maker and management personnel began reviewing the Company's performance and making resource allocation decisions by reviewing the results of the two business segments separately. Revenue and operating profit is now reviewed by the chief operating decision maker, however the Company assets are not divided based on business segment. Due to the structure of the Company's internal organization and the manner in which expenses were tracked and managed and as a result of the design of the Company's internal systems during fiscal 2009, the Company was unable to recast related financial information by operating segment for fiscal 2009 and prior. As such, segment information, other than revenue, for the quarter and six months ended June 28, 2009 is not reported as it is impracticable to do so.

Introduction
Overview
Power-One is organized into two business segments, (or strategic business units "SBUs"), Renewable Energy Solutions and Power Solutions, based on the products and services we provide. We are a leading designer and manufacturer of energy-efficient power conversion and power management solutions for both the renewable energy and power conversion markets. Our products convert, process and manage electrical energy, in both alternating current ("AC") and direct current ("DC") form, to the high levels of quality, reliability and precision required by our customers. Due to the structure of the Company's internal organization and the manner in which expenses were tracked and managed and as a result of the design of the Company's internal systems during fiscal 2009, the Company is unable to recast its financial statements by operating segment for fiscal 2009 and prior. As such, segment information, other than revenue, for the quarter and six months ended June 28, 2009 is not reported as it is impracticable to do so.
Renewable Energy Solutions: We offer inverters and accessories for the renewable energy market place that includes both photovoltaic/solar and wind applications. In the renewable energy market, we sell a broad product line of inverters that provide our customers with industry-leading efficiency, harvesting power, uptime, reliability and ease-of-installation. We sell our renewable energy products to distributors/installers, engineering procurement and construction ("EPC") firms, and original equipment manufacturers ("OEM"). We are engaged in the design and production of inverters for renewable energy products that convert photovoltaic/solar or wind energy (DC) into useable AC power. Our string inverters are used in residential and small commercial applications, while our central inverters are designed for large commercial and utility installations for both the solar and wind markets. These products scale in size from 2 kW up to 2.5 MW.
Power Solutions: Our power conversion and power management solutions are used in computer servers, data storage, networking, telecommunications and industrial applications. We sell our power conversion products to OEMs, distributors, and service providers. We are engaged in the design and production of the following power conversion products:

outlet requires some type of AC/DC power supply, and we provide a broad range of supplies that power a wide variety of OEM equipment;
Our Operating Environment
We are focused on improving our operational and financial performance. The operating framework in which we manage our business and guide our strategies is based on the disciplined management of three business levers: targeted growth, operational efficiency and capital strategy. Although we have made progress towards our goals, we will continue our efforts to drive long-term growth, increase profitability, and strengthen our balance sheet.
Our top strategic objective is to grow our market share in both the renewable energy and power conversion markets, while expanding profitability. Our initiative is to grow revenue by geographic expansion and new product offerings. To support this objective, we have launched new product introductions and will continue to invest in our go-to-market strategy by expanding the sales and service teams, expanding research and development ("R&D") and investing in new market-leading technologies. In addition, we are investing in our supply chain and manufacturing capacity. We have expanded our capacity in our European plants and are adding production capacity in the United States, China and Canada to meet the increased demand of the renewable energy market.
As part of our initiative to increase profitability, we are improving gross margin by driving manufacturing efficiencies and focusing our supply chain on targeting cost reductions. While our supply chain actively manages component costs, it also manages component shortages that we are currently addressing in both the renewable energy and power solutions businesses in order to mitigate any negative impacts that these shortages may have on meeting our customers' demands.
Lastly, we are continuing our initiatives to strengthen our balance sheet and improve our working capital performance. In an effort to reduce dilution, we repurchased $4.5 million in face value of the 8% senior secured convertible notes due 2013 during the first quarter of fiscal 2010, which resulted in a net loss of $5.7 million.
Recent Pronouncements and Accounting ChangesSee Part I. Item 1. Note 2"CHANGES TO SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND RELATED DISCLOSURESRecent Pronouncements and Accounting Changes" in the notes to the consolidated condensed financial statements, herein.
We follow accounting standards set by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, ("FASB"). The FASB sets generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") that we follow to ensure we consistently report our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. We have updated references to GAAP issued by the FASB in this "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
22
Results of Operations" to reflect the guidance in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC").
Results of Operations
Consolidated
During the first six months of fiscal 2010, demand in the renewable energy market continued to increase at a rapid rate. The revenue growth in the renewable energy market was driven primarily by higher demand in the overall solar market, as well as by our continued focus on geographic expansion further into Europe and Asia. In addition to increased revenue and order bookings, we have also increased our market share and outpaced the overall market growth in the renewable energy sector.
Net Sales. Net sales increased $177.9 million, or 94%, to $366.9 million for the first six months of fiscal 2010 from $189.0 million for the first six months of fiscal 2009. Net sales increased $123.4 million, or 135%, during the second quarter of fiscal 2010 as compared with the same period in 2009. The increase in sales primarily related to the increased demand in the renewable energy market as sales continued to increase in Europe and as sales of our inverters expanded into Asia and Australia. The increase in sales of renewable energy products in the European market was partially due to pull-in demand from German customers as a result of speculation that feed-in-tariffs in that region would decrease during the second half of 2010.
Net sales by business segment were as follows, in millions:

Gross profit for the first six months of fiscal 2010 was $125.1 million compared with a gross profit of $32.0 million in the comparable period in 2009. As a percentage of net sales, gross margin increased to 34.1% for the first six months of fiscal 2010 from a gross margin of 16.9% for the same period in 2009. Gross profit for the second quarter of fiscal 2010 was $79.4 million compared with a gross profit of $18.1 million in the comparable period in 2009. As a percentage of net sales, gross margin increased to 37.0% for the second quarter of fiscal 2010 from a gross margin of 19.9% for the same period in 2009. The increase in gross margin during 2010 primarily related to the increased sales volume of products into the renewable energy market as consolidated net sales increased by 94% during the first six months of 2010 and by 135% during the second quarter of fiscal 2010, as compared with the same periods of 2009. Product mix also improved during 2010 as compared with the same periods of 2009 as sales of renewable energy products, which tend to have higher gross margins, partially replaced sales of power products during 2010.
Selling, General and Administrative Expense. Selling, general and administrative expense increased $6.4 million, or 24%, to $33.2 million for the first six months of fiscal 2010 from $26.8 million for the same period in 2009. As a percentage of net sales, selling, general and administrative expense decreased to 9% for the first six months of fiscal 2010 from 14% for the same period in fiscal 2009. Selling, general and administrative expense increased $4.5 million, or 33%, to $18.2 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2010 from $13.7 million for the same period in 2009. As a percentage of net sales, selling, general and administrative expense decreased to 8% for the second quarter of fiscal 2010 from 15% for the second quarter of fiscal 2009.
Selling expense increased $3.8 million, or 33%, to $15.1 million for the first six months of 2010 from $11.3 million for the same period in 2009. Selling expense increased $2.6 million, or 47%, to $8.1 million for the second quarter of 2010 from $5.5 million for the same period in 2009. The increase in selling expense was primarily related to increased sales bonuses, commissions, and travel associated with the higher revenue levels achieved during the second quarter and first six months of 2010. In
24
addition, selling expense increased as a result of our investment in the expansion of the sales and service teams to support our initiative to grow market share and revenue.
General and administrative expense increased $2.6 million, or 17%, to $18.1 million for the first six months of 2010 from $15.5 million for the same period in 2009. General and administrative expense increased $1.9 million, or 24%, to $10.1 million for the second quarter of 2010 from $8.2 million for the same period in 2009. The increase in general and administrative expense is primarily a result of an increase in fixed costs to support the increased revenue growth as well as increases related to management and general bonus plans.
Research and Development. Research and development expense increased by $2.2 million, or 15%, to $16.9 million for the first six months of fiscal 2010 from $14.7 million in the first six months of fiscal 2009. As a percentage of net sales, research and development decreased to 5% during the first six months of 2010 from 8% during the same period of 2009. Research and development increased by $1.4 million, or 18%, to $8.6 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2010 from $7.2 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2009. As a percentage of net sales, research and development decreased to 4% during the second quarter of 2010 from 8% during the same period of 2009. The increase in research and development was primarily due to our investment in new product introductions and expansion of research and development efforts during the first six months of 2010 as compared with the same period in 2009.
Amortization of Intangible Assets. Amortization of intangible assets was $0.7 million for the first six months of 2010 compared to $0.8 million for the same period in 2009. Amortization of intangible assets was $0.4 million for both quarters ended July 4, 2010 and June 28, 2009.
Restructuring Charge and Asset Impairment. During the first six months of fiscal 2010 and 2009, we recorded pre-tax restructuring charges of $3.4 million and $5.0 million, respectively, and during the second fiscal quarters of 2010 and 2009, we recorded pre-tax restructuring charges of $2.5 million and $3.9 million, respectively. The restructuring charges were in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 420 "Exit or Disposal Cost Obligations" and ASC 712 "CompensationNonretirement Postemployment Benefits," as applicable. Under ASC 420, we record employee one-time termination benefits as an operating expense when the benefit arrangement is communicated to the employee and no significant future services are required, we record contract termination costs when a contract is terminated or ceases to provide economic benefit to the Company, and we record other associated restructuring costs in connection with the consolidation or closure of our facilities when the liability is incurred. In accordance with the guidance provided under ASC 712, we accrue for severance expenses prior to notification for termination benefits that are contractual or required by regional labor laws or are pursuant to a substantive plan where the costs are deemed probable and reasonably estimable.
During fiscal 2009, we announced and implemented a plan to restructure our global organization in response to ongoing demand uncertainty and to exit our factory in the Dominican Republic. The plan was completed during the second quarter of fiscal 2010. Through implementation of this action, we have (i) realigned global manufacturing and sourcing; (ii) improved operational performance; (iii) increased efficiencies in the supply chain and manufacturing process and (iv) improved our ability to respond to customer requirements in a cost effective manner.
During the three and six months ended July 4, 2010, we recorded approximately $2.5 million and $3.4 million, respectively, for facility closure costs related to continuing lease obligations and other costs to close and vacate the facility. In addition, we recorded $0.4 million of asset impairment charges in connection with the restructuring related to the consolidation of facilities during the three and six months ended July 4, 2010. During the three and six months ended June 28, 2009, we recorded severance benefits of approximately $3.7 million for approximately 1,100 employees and $4.8 million for
25
approximately 2,100 employees, respectively. We also recorded approximately $0.2 million of facility closure costs related to continuing lease obligations during the three and six months ended June 28, 2009.
Goodwill Impairment. In accordance with ASC 350 "IntangiblesGoodwill and Other," we do not amortize goodwill and other intangible assets that are deemed to have indefinite lives. We review goodwill and intangible assets for impairment annually at the end of each fiscal August, or more often if events or circumstances indicate that impairment may have occurred. In addition to the testing above, which is done on an annual basis, management considers whether certain impairment indicators are present in assessing whether the carrying value of goodwill and other intangible assets may be impaired. As a result of the continued decrease in our market capitalization during the first quarter of fiscal 2009, we tested our goodwill for impairment and determined that goodwill was impaired. Our testing approach utilized a discounted cash flow analysis and comparative market multiples to determine our (single reporting unit) fair value for comparison to our carrying value. As our carrying value exceeded our estimated fair value as of March 29, 2009, we applied the approach prescribed in ASC 350-20 for determining the impairment amount. As a result of the interim test, a goodwill impairment charge of $57.0 million was recorded in our consolidated condensed statements of operations for the first six months of fiscal 2009.
Income (Loss) from Operations. As a result of the items above, income from operations was $70.4 million for the first six months of fiscal 2010 compared with a loss from operations of $72.4 million for the first six months of fiscal 2009. Income from operations was $49.3 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2010 compared with a loss from operations of $7.0 million for second quarter of fiscal 2009.
Interest Income (Expense), Net. Net interest expense was approximately $4.0 million for the first six months of fiscal 2010, compared with net interest expense of approximately $4.1 million for the comparable period in 2009. Net interest expense was approximately $2.0 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2010, compared with net interest expense of approximately $2.2 million for the comparable period in 2009.
The net interest expense recorded during the three and six months ended July 4, 2010 related to an average of approximately $34 million of 8% senior secured convertible notes, carrying an effective interest rate of approximately 9.3%, as well as interest related to approximately $36 million of senior convertible notes issued May 8, 2009 at an effective interest rate of 10.5%, and interest related to long-term debt obligations at certain foreign locations. The net interest expense recorded during the three and six months ended June 28, 2009 related to an average outstanding balance of approximately $51 million and $60 million, respectively, of 8% senior secured convertible notes, carrying an effective interest rate of approximately 9.3%, as well as interest on the 8% senior convertible notes issued May 8, 2009 at an effective interest rate of 10.5%, along with interest related to credit facilities and long-term debt obligations at certain foreign locations.
Gain (Loss) on Extinguishment of Debt. Loss on extinguishment of debt was $5.7 million for the first six months of fiscal 2010 compared to a gain on extinguishment of debt of $8.4 million for the first six months of fiscal 2009. We recorded a gain on extinguishment of debt of $5.3 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2009. We repurchased $4.5 million in face value of outstanding 8% senior secured convertible notes due 2013 for approximately $10 million during the first six months of fiscal 2010, and approximately $7 million and $21.8 million in face value of outstanding 8% senior secured convertible notes due 2013 for approximately $3.5 million and $15.2 million during the three and six months ended June 28, 2009, respectively.
Other Income (Expense), Net. Net other income was $1.5 million for the first six months of fiscal 2010, compared with net other expense of $0.2 million for the same period in 2009. Included in net
26
other income for the first six months of fiscal 2010 was approximately $0.5 million of gain due to changes in the market value of the embedded derivatives related to the Company's preferred stock. Also included in net other income for the first six months of fiscal 2010 were gains on foreign currency transactions of approximately $0.4 million. Included in net other expense for the first six months of 2009 were losses on foreign currency transactions of approximately $0.4 million. Our primary foreign currencies are the Euro, the Swiss Franc, the British Pound, and the Chinese RMB.
Net other income was $0.7 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2010, compared with net other expense of $2.2 million for the same period in 2009. Included in net other income for the second quarter of 2010, were gains on foreign currency transactions of approximately $0.1 million. Net other expense for the second quarter of 2009 included losses on foreign currency transactions of approximately $2.3 million.
Provision (Benefit) for Income Taxes. The provision for income taxes was $33.0 million for the first six months of fiscal 2010 as compared to a benefit for income taxes of $0.4 million recorded during the first six months of fiscal 2009. The provision for income taxes was $23.3 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2010 as compared to a provision for income taxes of $0.4 million recorded during the second quarter of fiscal 2009. The provision for income taxes recorded during 2010 primarily related to taxes recorded at certain of our profitable European locations and is a result of the increase in revenue and profitability during the quarter and first six months of fiscal 2010. The benefit for income taxes recorded during the first six months of 2009 was primarily due to approximately $1.4 million related to the reversal of certain reserves for uncertain tax positions due to a closed tax audit, partially offset by taxes recorded at our profitable European locations.
Our effective tax rate varies significantly from period to period due to the level, mix and seasonality of earnings generated in the various U.S. and foreign jurisdictions in which we conduct business. Under ASC 740-270, "Interim Reporting of Income Taxes," we are required to adjust our effective tax rate for each quarter to be consistent with the estimated annual effective tax rate. Jurisdictions with a projected loss where no tax benefit can be recognized are excluded from the calculation of the estimated annual effective tax rate. Applying the provisions of ASC 740-270 could result in a higher or lower effective tax rate during a particular quarter, based upon the mix and timing of actual earnings versus annual projections.
Although we record deferred income tax assets in jurisdictions where we generate a loss for income tax purposes, we also record a valuation allowance against these deferred income tax assets when, in management's judgment, it is not more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be realized. As a result, we may record no tax benefit in jurisdictions where we incur a loss, but record tax expense in jurisdictions where we record taxable income and have no net operating loss (NOL) carryforward. As a result, few meaningful comparisons can be made on our consolidated tax rates between periods.
Equity in earnings of joint venture. During the first six months of fiscal 2010 and 2009, we recorded approximately $0.5 million and $0.3 million, respectively, related to our equity share in the earnings of a joint venture. During the second quarter of fiscal 2010 and 2009, we recorded approximately $0.4 million and $0.1 million, respectively, related to our equity share in the earnings of a joint venture.
Preferred stock dividend and accretion. During the first six months of fiscal 2010 and 2009, and in connection with the issuance of $23.6 million of redeemable convertible preferred stock to Silver Lake Sumeru, we recorded $1.7 million and $0.5 million, respectively, related to the 10% preferred stock dividend and accretion. Included in expense during the first six months of 2010 and 2009 were $1.2 million and $0.3 million, respectively, related to preferred dividends declared and $0.5 million and $0.2 million, respectively, related to the periodic accretions under the interest method. During the
27
second quarter of fiscal 2010 and 2009, we recorded $0.9 million and $0.5 million, respectively, of preferred stock dividend and accretion. Included in the expense during the second quarter of 2010 and 2009 were $0.6 million and $0.3 million, respectively, related to the preferred stock dividend, and $0.3 million and $0.2 million, respectively, related to the periodic accretions under the interest method.

During the three and six months ended July 4, 2010, demand in the renewable energy market continued to increase at a rapid rate over levels achieved during the same periods of 2009. The revenue growth in the renewable energy market was driven by increased demand in the overall solar market, as well as by our expansion further into Europe and into Asia and Australia. Revenue for the three and six months ended July 4, 2010 increased by approximately 742% and 665%, respectively as compared with the same periods of 2009. Operating income for the three and six months ended June 28, 2009 is not disclosed as it is impracticable to do so.

During the three months ended July 4, 2010, revenue decreased by $2.1 million, or 3%, as compared with the same quarter of 2009. During the first six months of 2010, power solutions revenue decreased by $17.2 million, or 11%, as compared with the same period of 2009. The constrained supply in the power conversion market has negatively impacted our power solutions revenue as component shortages and lengthened supplier lead times have hindered our ability to grow revenue during 2010. Operating loss for the three and six months ended July 4, 2010 included $1.8 million and $3.4 million, respectively, of charges related to the closure of the Dominican Republic facility, including inventory-related charges and accelerated depreciation. Operating income (loss) for the three and six months ended June 28, 2009 is not disclosed as it is impracticable to do so.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our cash and cash equivalents balance increased to $145.2 million at July 4, 2010 from $89.6 million at January 3, 2010. Our primary sources of cash in the first six months of fiscal 2010 consisted of $80.0 million of cash generated from operating activities. Our primary uses of cash in the first six months of fiscal 2010 consisted of $10.0 million used to repurchase approximately $4.5 million
28
of our 8% senior secured convertible notes, $8.3 million for the acquisition of property and equipment, and $1.8 million for dividends paid related to our redeemable convertible preferred stock.
Cash provided by operating activities of $80.0 million included net income of $29.8 million, as well as increases in accounts payable, other accrued expenses, inventory, and accounts receivable of $63.3 million, $27.5 million, $26.9 million and $25.1 million, respectively. In addition, cash provided by operating activities was offset by $9.2 million of cash payments related to our restructuring programs and $2.7 million of cash paid for interest.
We maintain credit facilities with various banks in Europe and Asia. At July 4, 2010, the aggregate limit on all credit facilities was approximately $20.3 million, with $1.2 million committed for letters of credit, and no amounts outstanding under the credit facilities. After consideration of these commitments, $19.1 million of additional borrowing capacity was available to us as of July 4, 2010. The credit facilities bear interest on amounts outstanding at various intervals based on published market rates.
At July 4, 2010, the total outstanding balance on our secured note payable held at a European subsidiary was $3.7 million, at a weighted average interest rate of 2.3%. Some credit agreements require our subsidiaries to maintain certain financial covenants and to provide certain financial reports to the lenders. At July 4, 2010, we were in compliance with all debt covenants.
At July 4, 2010, $34.3 million of Senior Secured Convertible Notes due 2013 ("8% Notes"), $36.4 million senior convertible notes due 2019 ("New Notes"), and $23.6 million of convertible preferred stock (at liquidation preference amount) were outstanding. The preferred stock pays quarterly dividends at a rate of 10% per year. The New Notes pay interest semi-annually at a rate of 6% per year the first year, 8% the second year and 10% thereafter. Both the preferred stock and the New Notes are convertible into the Company's common stock (the "Common Stock") at a conversion price of $1.35. The conversion price and exercise price for all instruments are subject to adjustment under certain circumstances. The preferred stock and notes are redeemable by either the Company or the holders after the fifth anniversary of issuance subject to certain conditions. The 8% Notes bear interest at a rate of 8% per annum, and will mature on June 17, 2013. The 8% Notes rank equal in right of payment with all of the Company's existing and any future senior unsecured indebtedness that is not subordinated by its terms. The 8% Notes are convertible, at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the maturity date or the redemption date, whichever is earlier, into shares of Common Stock, $0.001 par value per share, at an adjusted conversion rate of 500 shares of Common Stock per $1,000 in principal amount of the 8% Notes (which is equivalent to an adjusted conversion price of $2.00 per share), subject to certain adjustments set forth therein. During the six months ended July 4, 2010, the Company used $10.0 million net cash to repurchase and extinguish $4.5 million of the 8% Notes.
In accordance with the terms of the 8% Notes, on July 6, 2010, we announced that we had sent a redemption notice to registered holders of our 8% Notes that calls for the redemption of all outstanding Notes on August 11, 2010, the Redemption Date. Pursuant to the terms of the indenture governing the 8% Notes, all Notes outstanding on the Redemption Date will be redeemed at a redemption price of $1,139.29 per $1,000 principal amount of the Note, which includes accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the Redemption Date, payable in cash. Pursuant to the terms of the 8% Notes and in lieu of receiving the cash redemption price, holders of the 8% Notes may convert their 8% Notes prior to the Redemption Date into shares of the Company's common stock by delivering a conversion notice to The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company N.A., calculated at a conversion rate of 500 shares of common stock for each $1,000 principal amount of Notes converted. As of August 11, 2010, $34.2 million face value of the 8% Notes were converted into 17.1 million shares of our common stock.
29
We currently anticipate that our total capital expenditures for the remainder of 2010 will be in the range of $10 million to $15 million, primarily for capacity expansion into the United States, Asia and Canada, manufacturing equipment and process improvements, equipment related to research and development and product development, additions and upgrades to our facilities and information technology infrastructure, and other administrative requirements. However, the amount of these anticipated capital expenditures may change during the year based on changes in expected revenues, our financial condition and the general economic climate.
Based on current plans and business conditions, we believe our existing working capital and borrowing capacity, coupled with the funds that we expect to generate from our operations will be sufficient to meet our liquidity requirements for the next twelve months. We will continue to evaluate our liquidity position and when and if necessary explore alternatives to maximize our position and we may determine to raise additional funding through the issuance of equity or incurrence of debt.
We may from time to time seek to retire or purchase our outstanding debt through cash purchases, in open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. Such repurchases, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. The amounts involved may be material.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
Below we identify and disclose all of our significant off balance sheet arrangements and related party transactions. We do not utilize special purpose entities or have any known financial relationships with other companies' special purpose entities.
Operating Leases. We enter into operating leases where and when the economic climate is favorable.
Purchase Commitments. We have purchase commitments for materials, supplies, services, and property, plant and equipment as part of the normal course of business. Certain supply contracts may contain penalty provisions for early termination. Based on current expectations, we do not believe that we are reasonably likely to incur any material amount of penalties under these contracts.
Other Contractual Obligations. We do not have material financial guarantees that are reasonably likely to affect liquidity.
Related Parties. We have entered into certain transactions, or have other arrangements with related parties. (See Note 15 to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements in Part I, Item I)

Item 3Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Market risks relating to our operations result primarily from changes in interest rates on outstanding financial debt instruments and changes in foreign currency exchange rates.
Debt. Our exposure to interest rate risk results from financial debt instruments that we enter into. We may also enter into derivative financial instrument transactions, such as swaps, in order to manage or reduce our exposure to interest rate changes related to our indebtedness. However, under no circumstances do we enter into derivative or other financial instrument transactions for speculative purposes. We are exposed to cash flow risk due to changes in market interest rates related to our outstanding debt. For example, in Europe our variable long term debt bears interest on borrowings outstanding at various time intervals and is based on the Euro Interbank Offered Rate (EURIBOR). Our principal risk with respect to our variable long-term debt is to changes in this market rate.
The table below presents principal cash flows and related weighted average interest rates for our credit facilities and long-term debt obligations at July 4, 2010 by expected maturity dates. The information is presented in U.S. dollar equivalents, our reporting currency, and parenthetically in Eurodollar, where applicable. Additionally, the U.S. dollar equivalent carrying value of Eurodollars denominated debt is sensitive to foreign currency exchange rates. However, a 10% change in the U.S.
31
dollar exchange rate against these currencies would not be expected to have a significant effect on our future earnings.

Foreign Currency. A significant portion of our business operations are conducted in various countries in Europe and Asia. As a result, we have a certain degree of market risk with respect to our cash flows due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates when transactions are denominated in currencies other than our functional currency, including inter-company transactions. Historically, we have not actively engaged in substantial exchange rate hedging activities, and at July 4, 2010, we had not entered into any significant foreign exchange contracts.
Item 4Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our periodic reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 ("Exchange Act") is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the required time periods.
As of July 4, 2010, we had carried out an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that such disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e), are effective in that they are designed 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. We review our disclosure controls and procedures on an ongoing basis and may from time to time make changes aimed at enhancing their effectiveness and to ensure that they evolve with our business.
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f), during the quarter ended July 4, 2010 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including the Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contains forward- looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, as codified in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended from time to time. The forward-looking statements include comments and predictions regarding future events and our future
32
results that are based on current expectations, estimates, forecasts, and projections about the industries in which we operate and the beliefs and assumptions of our management. Words such as "expect," "anticipate," "plan," "intend," "continue," "may," "can," "believe" and similar expressions reflecting something other than historical fact are intended to identify forward- looking statements, but are not the exclusive means of identifying such statements. Any statements which refer to projections of our future financial performance, our anticipated growth and trends in our businesses, and other characterizations of future events or circumstances are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees, but rather are predictions of and make certain assumptions regarding anticipated future results. Achievement of actual results is dependent upon and will involve a variety of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from assumptions and predictions.
Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the risk that the market for the sale of certain products and services may not develop as expected; the impact of competitive products or technologies and competitive pricing pressures; the ability to secure sufficient quantities of components within the time frame necessary to meet our customers' requirements; increases in raw material costs; the ability to resolve contract manufacturer supply chain constraints that have caused an inability to deliver product on time; inventory increases tied to component acquisitions or end product build up based on forecasts that do not materialize in part or in full; delays or cancellations of new product designs by customers; the difficulty of efficiently managing the company's cost structure for capital expenditures, materials and overhead, as well as operating expenses such as wages and benefits due to the vertical integration of the company's manufacturing processes; the ability to achieve and execute upon planned movements of the location of manufacturing of selected products, specifically the achievement of projected manufacturing realignment to, and increase in manufacturing utilization and output in, our China facilities; the ability to implement our plans to improve our operational efficiency; potential business disruptions, including labor unrest, work stoppages, or other short or longer term labor disruptions; the existence or enactment of adverse U.S. and foreign government regulation; the risk that the development of products and services may not proceed as planned; general adverse domestic and international economic conditions including interest rate and currency exchange rate fluctuations; costs involved (i.e. the total amount, and/or the amount incurred in any given quarter) due to attacks and challenges to, or assertions by us of, our intellectual property rights; the ability to attract and retain key personnel; the ability to manage our international operations and currency exchange rate fluctuations relating to transactions or accounts conducted or maintained in currencies other than U.S. dollars; the ability to capture customers in new markets that we are pursuing; market fluctuations or volatility that could cause the trading price of our common stock to decline; and changes in the regulatory environment in which our business operates. Persons reading this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are cautioned that such forward-looking statements are only predictions, and actual events or results may differ materially and adversely. In evaluating such statements, readers should specifically consider the various factors which could cause actual events or results to differ materially and adversely from those indicated by such forward-looking statements. For a detailed description of such factors, see "Risk Factors" in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 3, 2010. We undertake no obligation to modify or revise any forward- looking statement to take into account or otherwise reflect subsequent events or circumstances arising after the date that the forward- looking statement was made.

The Company is involved in certain claims and legal proceedings which have arisen in the normal course of business. Management does not believe that the outcome of any currently pending claims or legal proceedings in which the Company is involved will have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flow.
SynQor, Inc. v Power-One, Inc, et. al. United States District Court, Eastern District of Texas, Civil Action No. 2:07cv497 TJW/CE. This action was initiated by SynQor, Inc. against the Company and eight other power supply manufacturers on November 13, 2007. The complaint alleges that certain products of the Company infringe certain patents held by SynQor in relation to unregulated bus converters and/or point of load (POL) converters used in intermediate bus architecture power supply systems. The Company has filed its answer to the complaint denying infringement of the patents alleged, denying all claims of SynQor for entitlement to damages or other relief, and asserting various affirmative defenses, to include invalidity and unenforceability of the applicable patents. Two new patents were subsequently issued to SynQor and SynQor filed motions for leave to amend its complaint to add claims for infringement of the two new patents. SynQor's motions were opposed by the Company and its codefendants, but on September 18, 2009 the Court granted SynQor's motions and deemed the amended complaints filed as of the dates SynQor's motions were filed (July 7, 2009 for the second amended complaint (adding the '083 patent) and July 21, 2009 for the third amended complaint (adding the '702 patent)). On October 2, 2009 Power-One filed its response to the third amended complaint. Proceedings are in the discovery stage. The claim construction hearing took place in Marshall, Texas on July 13, 2010 and the court issued its Markman ruling on July 26, 2010, substantially adopting Power-One's construction of certain key terms. Trial is scheduled to begin December 6, 2010.
Antonio Canova v. Power-One Italy S.p.A. and Magnetek, Inc. Labor Court, Arezzo, Italy. The former Executive Vice President in charge of Magnetek, Inc.'s Power Electronics Group and the Managing Director of its Italian subsidiary has brought suit in Italy against the Italian subsidiary, and against his former U.S. employer Magnetek, Inc., alleging various causes of action and rights to damages relating to claims of wrongful dismissal of employment, specific Italian employment indemnities, general economic losses, and contractual claims relating specifically to his employment relationship and contracts entered into between himself and Magnetek, Inc. The Company is a party to the lawsuit due to its acquisition of the stock of Magnetek's Italian subsidiary in October 2006. At a hearing held in July 2008, the Judge upheld the Company's motion to dismiss on technical grounds certain of Mr. Canova's claims for monetary damages arising from his alleged unfair dismissal. At a subsequent hearing on April 24, 2009, the Judge issued certain orders with respect to document production and set October 15, 2009 as the hearing date for witness testimony. At the hearing on October 15, 2009, the Judge ordered Power-One to file a copy of the Purchase Agreement between Magnetek Inc., and Power-One, Inc., translated into Italian, by November 15, 2009 and ordered both parties to file summaries of the issues raised at the hearing and to identify those that require further witness testimony. The parties filed their final briefs on April 30, 2010. The final hearing was scheduled for May 28, 2010, but on April 26, 2010, the parties were advised that a new judge had been assigned to preside over the final hearing and that the hearing was postponed until February 11, 2011.
There have been no material changes from the risk factors disclosed in the "Risk Factors" section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 3, 2010.
