Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] |
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES | COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Operating Leases The Company leases its headquarters in New York, New York and other locations worldwide under non-cancelable operating leases that expire at various dates through 2023. At June 30, 2017, future minimum annual payments under operating leases are as follows (in thousands):
Fiscal Year | 2018 |  | 2019 |  | 2020 |  | 2021 |  | 2022 |  | Thereafter |  | Total
Operating leases | $ | 6,075 |  |  | $ | 3,223 |  |  | $ | 2,331 |  |  | $ | 1,484 |  |  | $ | 942 |  |  | $ | 578 |  |  | $ | 14,633 |
Rent expense under operating leases was $6.7 million, $5.0 million and $3.6 million for fiscal 2017, fiscal 2016 and fiscal 2015, respectively. Purchase Obligations The Company primarily subcontracts with other companies to manufacture its products. During the normal course of business, the Company’s contract manufacturers procure components based upon orders placed by the Company. If the Company cancels all or part of the orders, it may still be liable to the contract manufacturers for the cost of the components purchased by them to manufacture the Company’s products. The Company periodically reviews the potential liability and to date no significant accruals have been recorded. The Company had inventory purchase obligations for finished goods of $32.9 million as of June 30, 2017. Indemnification Obligations The Company enters into standard indemnification agreements with many of its business partners in the ordinary course of business. These agreements include provisions for indemnifying the business partner against any claim brought by a third party to the extent any such claim alleges that a Company product infringes a patent, copyright or trademark, or violates any other proprietary rights of that third party. The maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under these indemnification agreements is not estimable and the Company has not incurred any material costs to defend lawsuits or settle claims related to these indemnification agreements to date. Legal Matters The Company may be involved, from time to time, in a variety of claims, lawsuits, investigations, and proceedings relating to contractual disputes, intellectual property rights, employment matters, regulatory compliance matters and other litigation matters relating to various claims that arise in the normal course of business. The Company determines whether an estimated loss from a contingency should be accrued by assessing whether a loss is deemed probable and can be reasonably estimated. The Company assesses its potential liability by analyzing specific litigation and regulatory matters using available information. The Company develops its views on estimated losses in consultation with inside and outside counsel, which involves a subjective analysis of potential results and outcomes, assuming various combinations of appropriate litigation and settlement strategies. Taking all of the above factors into account, the Company records an amount where it is probable that the Company will incur a loss and where that loss can be reasonably estimated. However, the Company’s estimates may be incorrect and the Company could ultimately incur more or less than the amounts initially recorded. The Company may also incur significant legal fees, which are expensed as incurred, in defending against these claims. The Company is not currently aware of any pending or threatened litigation that would have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial statements. Shareholder Class Action Lawsuits Beginning on September 7, 2012, two class action lawsuits were filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California (the “Court”) against Ubiquiti Networks, Inc., certain of its officers and directors, and the underwriters of its initial public offering, alleging claims under U.S. securities laws (collectively, the “Shareholder Lawsuit”). On January 30, 2013, the plaintiffs filed an amended consolidated complaint. On March 26, 2014, the court issued an order granting a motion to dismiss the complaint with leave to amend. Following the plaintiffs’ decision not to file an amended complaint, on April 16, 2014, the court ordered the dismissal of the lawsuit with prejudice, and entered judgment in favor of the Company and the other defendants, and against the plaintiffs. On May 15, 2014, the plaintiffs filed a notice of appeal from the judgment of the court. The Ninth Circuit head oral arguments on August 10, 2015. On October 24, 2016, the Ninth Circuit issued an unpublished memorandum opinion, reaffirming the district court’s dismissal of the alleged violations of Section10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and reversing the district court’s dismissal of the alleged violations of Section 11 and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933. On August 4, 2017, the parties to the Shareholder Lawsuit filed with the Court a settlement that they reached to resolve the Shareholder Lawsuit against the defendants. Pursuant to the settlement stipulation and subject to certain conditions therein, the settlement class will receive $6.8 million, to be funded largely by the Company’s insurance carriers and placed into escrow within 20 calendar days of the entry of the preliminary approval order approving settlement in the Shareholder Lawsuit. The settlement is subject to the Court’s approval and its terms may change as a result of the settlement approval process. The preliminary settlement approval hearing is scheduled for September 5, 2017. The final approval hearing date is not yet set. If the Court approves the settlement and enters a judgment substantially in the form requested by the parties, the settlement will become effective when certain conditions specified in the settlement stipulation are satisfied, including the expiration of any right to appeal the judgment. Synopsys On February 3, 2017, Synopsys, Inc. (“Synopsys”) filed a complaint against the Company, one of our subsidiaries and an employee in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, alleging claims under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”). On March 28, 2017, Synopsys filed an amended complaint alleging (i) additional claims under the DMCA, (ii) claims under the Anti-Counterfeiting Act, and (iii) claims for label trafficking, fraud, civil RICO and negligent misrepresentation. On April 11, 2017, the Company moved to dismiss all but the initial DMCA claim in the amended complaint and its subsidiary moved to dismiss for lack of personal jurisdiction and joined the Company’s motion to dismiss certain claims. On August 15, 2017, the court issued an order granting the Company’s motion to dismiss the Anti-Counterfeiting Act claim and certain of the predicate acts alleged under the civil RICO claim. The court denied the motion to dismiss the remaining claims, and denied the subsidiary’s motion to dismiss for lack of jurisdiction. The Company plans to vigorously defend itself against these claims; however, there can be no assurance that the Company will prevail in the lawsuit. The Company cannot currently estimate the possible loss or range of losses, if any, that it may experience in connection with this litigation Vivato/XR On April 19, 2017, XR Communications, LLC, d/b/a Vivato Technologies (“Vivato”), filed a complaint against the Company in the United States District Court for the Central District of California, alleging that at least one of the Company’s products infringes United States Patent Numbers 7,062,296 (the “’296 Patent”), 7,729,728 (the “’728 Patent”), and 6,611,231 (the “’231 Patent and, collectively, the “Patents-in-Suit”). The ‘296 and ‘728 Patents are entitled “Forced Beam Switching in Wireless Communication Systems Having Smart Antennas.” The ‘231 Patent is entitled “Wireless Packet Switched Communications Systems and Networks Using Adaptively Steered Antenna Arrays.” Vivato amended its complaint on June 23, 2017 and again on July 6, 2017. According to the complaint, the products accused of infringing the Patents-in-Suit include Wi-Fi access points and routers supporting MU-MIMO, including without limitation access points and routers utilizing the IEEE 802.11ac-2013 standard. Vivato has also recently filed nine other lawsuits asserting the same patents against other defendants in the Central District of California. The Company plans to vigorously defend itself against these claims; however, there can be no assurance that the Company will prevail in the lawsuit. The Company cannot currently estimate the possible loss or range of losses, if any, that it may experience in connection with this litigation.
