NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, and U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or U.S. GAAP. Certain information or footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to SEC rules and regulations. In our opinion, the financial statements include all adjustments, which are of a normal and recurring nature and necessary for the fair presentation of the results of the interim periods presented. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full fiscal year or any future period. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 24, 2017.

The consolidated financial statements include our financial statements and those of our wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.

Our fiscal year is the 52- or 53-week period ending on the last Saturday in June. Our fiscal 2018 is a 53-week period ending June 30, 2018, and our fiscal 2017 was a 52-week period ending on June 24, 2017. The fiscal periods presented in this report are 13-week and 27-week periods for the three and six months ended December 30, 2017, respectively, and 13-week and 26-week periods for the three and six months ended December 24, 2016, respectively. For simplicity, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been shown as ending on calendar quarter end dates as of and for all periods presented, unless otherwise indicated.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to revenue recognition, allowance for doubtful accounts, cost of revenue, inventories, loss on purchase commitments, product warranty, accrued liabilities, share-based compensation costs, provision for income taxes, deferred income tax asset valuation allowances, uncertain tax positions, goodwill, intangible assets, investments, contingent consideration liability and loss contingencies. We base our estimates on historical experience, applicable laws and regulations, and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Foreign Currency Transactions and Foreign Exchange Contracts

The U.S. dollar is our functional and reporting currency. We remeasure our monetary assets and liabilities not denominated in the functional currency into U.S. dollar equivalents at the rate of exchange in effect on the balance sheet date. We measure and record non-monetary balance sheet accounts at the historical rate in effect at the date of transaction. We remeasure foreign currency expenses at the weighted average exchange rate in the month that the transaction occurred. Our foreign currency transactions and remeasurement gains and losses are included in selling, general, and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of income, and resulted in net losses of $0.2 million and $0.5 million in the three and six months ended December 31, 2017 and net losses of $0.1 million and less than $0.1 million in the three and six months ended December 31, 2016, respectively.

2. Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue from product sales when there is persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred and title has transferred, the price is fixed or determinable, and collection is reasonably assured. We accrue for estimated sales returns, incentives, and other allowances at the time we recognize revenue. Our products contain embedded firmware and software, which together with, or consisting of, our ASIC chip, deliver the essential functionality of our products and, as such, software revenue recognition guidance is not applicable. The majority of our sales to distributors are made under agreements that generally do not provide for price adjustments after purchase and revenue recognition and provide for only limited return rights under product warranty. Revenue on these sales is recognized in the same manner as sales to our non-distributor customers. Some of our sales are to distributors which have limited stock rotation rights, which allow them to rotate a small portion of product in their inventory two times per year. We recognize revenue to these distributors upon shipment of product to the distributor, as the stock rotation rights are limited and we can reasonably estimate expected product returns when right of return exists. When sales rebates, price allowances and stock rotations are applicable, they are estimated and recorded in the period the related revenue is recognized.

3. Net Income Per Share

The computation of basic and diluted net income per share was as follows (in millions, except per share data):

|  | Three Months Ended |  |  | Six Months Ended |
|  | December 31, |  |  | December 31, |
|  | 2017 |  |  | 2016 |  |  | 2017 |  |  | 2016 |
Numerator: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Net income/(loss) |  | $ | (82.4 | ) |  | $ | 22.8 |  |  | $ | (108.9 | ) |  | $ | 26.5 |
Denominator: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Shares, basic |  |  | 34.1 |  |  |  | 35.1 |  |  |  | 33.8 |  |  |  | 35.0 |
Effect of dilutive share-based awards |  |  | - |  |  |  | 0.8 |  |  |  | - |  |  |  | 0.7 |
Shares, diluted |  |  | 34.1 |  |  |  | 35.9 |  |  |  | 33.8 |  |  |  | 35.7 |
Net income/(loss) per share: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Basic |  | $ | (2.42 | ) |  | $ | 0.65 |  |  | $ | (3.22 | ) |  | $ | 0.76 |
Diluted |  | $ | (2.42 | ) |  | $ | 0.64 |  |  | $ | (3.22 | ) |  | $ | 0.74 |

Our basic net income per share amounts for each period presented have been computed using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding over the period measured. Our diluted net income per share amounts for each period presented include the weighted average effect of potentially dilutive shares. We use the “treasury stock” method to determine the dilutive effect of our stock options, deferred stock units, or DSUs, market stock units, or MSUs, performance stock units, or PSUs, and our convertible notes.

Dilutive net income per share amounts do not include the potential weighted average effect of 3,334,776 and 1,900,374 shares of common stock related to certain share-based awards that were outstanding during the three months ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and 3,020,056 and 1,586,410 shares of common stock related to certain share-based awards that were outstanding during the six months ended December 31, 2017, and 2016, respectively. These share-based awards were not included in the computation of diluted net income per share because their effect would have been antidilutive.

4. Fair Value

Financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis by level within the fair value hierarchy, consisted of the following (in millions):

|  | December 31, |  |  | June 30, |
|  | 2017 |  |  | 2017 |
|  | Level 1 |  |  | Level 2 |  |  | Level 3 |  |  | Level 1 |  |  | Level 2 |  |  | Level 3 |
Assets: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Money market funds |  | $ | 219.7 |  |  | $ | - |  |  | $ | - |  |  | $ | 361.7 |  |  | $ | - |  |  | $ | - |
Auction rate securities |  |  | - |  |  |  | - |  |  |  | 1.5 |  |  |  | - |  |  |  | - |  |  |  | 1.5 |
Total available-for-sale securities |  | $ | 219.7 |  |  | $ | - |  |  | $ | 1.5 |  |  | $ | 361.7 |  |  | $ | - |  |  | $ | 1.5 |

In our condensed consolidated balance sheets, as of December 31, 2017 and June 30, 2017, money market balances were included in cash and cash equivalents, and auction rate securities, or ARS investments, were included in non-current other assets.

There were no changes in fair value of our Level 3 financial assets during the six months ended December 31, 2017. There were no transfers in or out of our Level 1, 2, or 3 assets during the six months ended December 31, 2017 and 2016.

The fair values of our accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate their carrying values because of the short-term nature of those instruments. Intangible assets, property and equipment, and goodwill are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis if impairment is indicated.

5. Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or net realizable value and consisted of the following (in millions):

|  | December 31, |  |  | June 30, |
|  | 2017 |  |  | 2017 |
Raw materials and work-in-progress |  | $ | 81.1 |  |  | $ | 94.7 |
Finished goods |  |  | 59.5 |  |  |  | 36.7 |
|  | $ | 140.6 |  |  | $ | 131.4 |

We record a write-down, if necessary, to reduce the carrying value of inventory to its net realizable value. The effect of these write-downs is to establish a new cost basis in the related inventory, which we do not subsequently write up. We also record a liability and charge to cost of revenue for estimated losses on inventory we are obligated to purchase from our contract manufacturers when such losses become probable from customer delays, order cancellations, or other factors.

6. Acquisitions

Conexant

On June 11, 2017, we entered into a securities purchase agreement to acquire all of the outstanding limited liability company interests of Conexant Systems, LLC, or Conexant, a technology leader in voice and audio processing solutions for the smart home, or the Conexant Acquisition. The Conexant Acquisition is intended to increase our presence in the smart home market and increase opportunities to grow revenue. Effective July 25, 2017, or the Conexant Closing Date, we completed the Conexant Acquisition for an initial purchase price of (i) $305.4 million in cash (on a cash-free, debt-free basis) and (ii) 726,666 shares of our common stock, or the Stock Consideration, valued at $39.1 million, and (iii) the assumption of a $3.5 million stock appreciation rights liability, with $16.8 million of the purchase price held in escrow to secure the seller’s indemnification obligations under the purchase agreement and $7.0 million of the purchase price held in escrow to secure the seller’s adjustment escrow obligations under the purchase agreement. Subsequently, we determined that $1.8 million of net adjustments to the purchase price were required reducing the acquisition date fair value of the consideration transferred to a total of $346.2 million. The Stock Consideration was issued at closing in an exempt private placement. On August 4, 2017, we filed a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 with the SEC providing for the registered resale of the Stock Consideration.

The acquisition has been accounted for using the purchase method of accounting in accordance with the business acquisition guidance. Under the purchase accounting method, the total estimated purchase consideration of the acquisition was allocated to the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their relative fair values. The excess of the purchase consideration over the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities has been recorded as goodwill. Our estimate of the fair values of the acquired intangible assets at December 31, 2017, is preliminary and subject to change and is based on established and accepted valuation techniques performed with the assistance of our third-party valuation specialists. Additional information, which existed as of the Conexant Closing Date but is yet unknown to us, may become known to us during the remainder of the measurement period, which will not exceed 12 months from the Conexant Closing Date. Changes to amounts recorded as inventory, other current assets, acquired intangible assets and other accrued liabilities will be recorded as adjustments to the provisional amounts recognized as of the Conexant Closing Date and may result in a corresponding adjustment to goodwill in the period in which new information becomes available.

The following table summarizes the provisional amounts recorded for the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the Conexant Closing Date (in millions):

Cash |  | $ | 4.3 |
Accounts receivable |  |  | 11.7 |
Inventory |  |  | 51.0 |
Other current assets |  |  | 3.5 |
Property and equipment |  |  | 3.2 |
Acquired intangible assets |  |  | 152.5 |
Other assets |  |  | 0.9 |
Total identifiable assets acquired |  |  | 227.1 |
Accounts payable |  |  | 14.2 |
Accrued compensation |  |  | 1.1 |
Other accrued liabilities |  |  | 9.0 |
Other long-term liabilities |  |  | 3.0 |
Net identifiable assets acquired |  |  | 199.8 |
Goodwill |  |  | 146.4 |
Net assets acquired |  | $ | 346.2 |

Of the $152.5 million of acquired intangible assets, $115.3 million was allocated to developed technology and will amortize over an estimated weighted average useful life of 5 years; $32.1 million was allocated to customer relationships and will be amortized over an estimated useful life of 4 years, $4.8 million was allocated to trademarks and will be amortized over an estimated useful life of 7 years; and $0.3 million was allocated to backlog and will be amortized over an estimated useful life of less than 1 year. Developed technology consists of semiconductor system solutions for audio and imaging applications. We preliminarily estimated the fair value of the identified intangible assets using a discounted cash flow model for each of the underlying identified intangible assets. These fair value measurements were based on significant inputs not observable in the market and thus represent a Level 3 measurement. Key assumptions include the level and timing of expected future cash flows, conditions and demands specific to each intangible asset over its remaining useful life, and discount rates we believe to be consistent with the inherent risks associated with each type of asset, which range from 9% to 14%. The fair value of these intangible assets is primarily affected by the projected income and the anticipated timing of the projected income associated with each intangible asset coupled with the discount rates used to derive their estimated present values. We believe the level and timing of expected future cash flows appropriately reflects market participant assumptions.

The value of goodwill reflects the anticipated synergies of the combined operations and workforce of Conexant as of the Conexant Closing Date.

As of December 31, 2017, all of the goodwill is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.

Prior to the Conexant Acquisition, we did not have an existing relationship or transactions with Conexant.

The condensed consolidated financial statements include approximately $57.4 million of revenue and approximately $27.2 million of operating loss from Conexant from the Conexant Closing Date through December 31, 2017.

The following unaudited pro forma financial information (in millions, except per share data) presents the combined results of operations for us and Conexant as if the Conexant Acquisition had occurred on June 30, 2016. The unaudited pro forma financial information has been prepared for comparative purposes only and does not purport to be indicative of the actual operating results that would have been recorded had the Conexant Acquisition actually taken place on June 30, 2016, and should not be taken as indicative of future consolidated operating results. Additionally, the unaudited pro forma financial results do not include any anticipated synergies or other expected benefits from the Conexant Acquisition.

Marvell Multimedia Solutions Business

On June 11, 2017, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement to acquire the assets of the multimedia solutions business of Marvell Technology Group Ltd., or Marvell, a leading provider of advanced video and audio processing applications for the smart home, or the Marvell Business Acquisition. The Marvell Business Acquisition is also intended to increase our presence in the smart home market and increase opportunities to grow revenue. Effective September 8, 2017, or the Marvell Closing Date, we completed the Marvell Business Acquisition for a purchase price of $93.7 million in cash.

The acquisition has been accounted for using the purchase method of accounting in accordance with the business acquisition guidance. Under the purchase accounting method, the total estimated purchase consideration of the acquisition was allocated to the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their relative fair values. The excess of the purchase consideration over the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities has been recorded as goodwill. Our estimate of the fair values of the acquired intangible assets at December 31, 2017, is preliminary and subject to change and is based on established and accepted valuation techniques performed with the assistance of our third-party valuation specialists. Additional information, which existed as of the Marvell Closing Date but is yet unknown to us, may become known to us during the remainder of the measurement period, which will not exceed 12 months from the Marvell Closing Date. Changes to amounts recorded as inventory and acquired intangible assets will be recorded as adjustments to the provisional amounts recognized as of the Marvell Closing Date and may result in a corresponding adjustment to goodwill in the period in which new information becomes available.

The following table summarizes the provisional amounts recorded for the estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the Marvell Business Acquisition date (in millions):

Inventory |  | $ | 28.4 |
Property and equipment |  |  | 5.0 |
Acquired intangible assets |  |  | 45.6 |
Total identifiable assets acquired |  |  | 79.0 |
Accrued liabilities |  |  | 0.4 |
Net identifiable assets acquired |  |  | 78.6 |
Goodwill |  |  | 15.1 |
Net assets acquired |  | $ | 93.7 |

Of the $45.6 million of acquired intangible assets, $31.7 million was allocated to developed technology and will be amortized over an estimated weighted average useful life of 4 years; $12.7 million was allocated to customer relationships and will be amortized over an estimated useful life of 4 years, $1.2 million was allocated to backlog and will be amortized over an estimated useful life of less than 1 year; and $14.3 million was allocated to in-process research and development and will be amortized over an estimated useful life to be determined at the date the underlying projects are deemed to be substantively complete. Developed technology consists of semiconductor system solutions for advanced video and audio processing applications. We preliminarily estimated the fair value of the identified intangible assets using a discounted cash flow model for each of the underlying identified intangible assets. These fair value measurements were based on significant inputs not observable in the market and thus represent a Level 3 measurement. Key assumptions include the level and timing of expected future cash flows, conditions and demands specific to each intangible asset over its remaining useful life, and discount rates we believe to be consistent with the inherent risks associated with each type of asset, which range from 9% to 18%. The fair value of these intangible assets is primarily affected by the projected income and the anticipated timing of the projected income associated with each intangible asset coupled with the discount rates used

11

to derive their estimated present values. We believe the level and timing of expected future cash flows appropriately reflects market participant assumptions.

The value of goodwill reflects the anticipated synergies of the combined operations and workforce of the transferred Marvell Business assets as of the Marvell Closing Date.

All of the goodwill is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.

Prior to the Marvell Business Acquisition, we did not have an existing relationship or transactions with Marvell.

The condensed consolidated financial statements include approximately $63.1 million of revenue and approximately $9.1 million of operating loss from Marvell from the Marvell Closing Date through December 31, 2017.

The following unaudited pro forma financial information (in millions, except per share data) presents the combined results of operations for us and Marvell as if the Marvell Business Acquisition had occurred on June 30, 2016. The unaudited pro forma financial information has been prepared for comparative purposes only and does not purport to be indicative of the actual operating results that would have been recorded had the Marvell Business Acquisition actually taken place on June 30, 2016, and should not be taken as indicative of future consolidated operating results. Additionally, the unaudited pro forma financial results do not include any anticipated synergies or other expected benefits from the Marvell Business Acquisition. As the Marvell Business Acquisition was an asset acquisition and only a portion of Marvell Multimedia Solutions Business was acquired, the unaudited pro forma financial information has been prepared using certain estimates.

9. Indemnifications, Contingencies and Legal Proceedings

Indemnifications

In connection with certain agreements, we are obligated to indemnify the counterparty against third party claims alleging infringement of certain intellectual property rights by us. We have also entered into indemnification agreements with our officers and directors. Maximum potential future payments under these agreements cannot be estimated because these agreements do not have a maximum stated liability. However, historical costs related to these indemnification provisions have not been significant. We have not recorded any liability in our condensed consolidated financial statements for such indemnification obligations.

Contingencies

We have in the past, and may in the future receive notices from third parties that claim our products infringe their intellectual property rights. We cannot be certain that our technologies and products do not and will not infringe issued patents or other proprietary rights of third parties.

Any infringement claims, with or without merit, could result in significant litigation costs and diversion of management and financial resources, including the payment of damages, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Legal Proceedings

In October 2015, Amkor Technology, or Amkor, filed a complaint against us alleging infringement of intellectual property rights and various other claims. In November 2015, we filed an indemnification claim against the former stockholders and option holders of Validity Sensors, Inc., or Validity, to secure our rights under the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization between us and Validity (the “Validity Agreement”). Pursuant to the Validity Agreement, we believe we can offset costs, damages and settlements incurred in connection with our defense and resolution of the complaint with Amkor against the contingent consideration earnout balance of $8.7 million and have classified the reserve balance as a current acquisition-related liability in our condensed consolidated balance sheet. In April 2017, we agreed to settle this case with Amkor on undisclosed terms that include each party licensing and assigning certain intellectual property rights, and cash payments. Settlement costs incurred in connection with this litigation have been recorded in our condensed consolidated financial statements in fiscal 2017 and all but an immaterial amount was paid during fiscal 2017. The indemnification claim against the former stockholders and option holders of Validity remains outstanding.

10. Debt

Convertible Debt

On June 20, 2017, we entered into a purchase agreement, or the Purchase Agreement, with Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, as representative of the initial purchasers named therein, or collectively, the Initial Purchasers, pursuant to which we agreed to issue and sell, and the Initial Purchasers agreed to purchase, $500 million aggregate principal amount of our 0.50% convertible senior notes due 2022, or the Notes, in a private placement transaction. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, we also granted the Initial Purchasers a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional $25 million aggregate principal amount of Notes, which was exercised in full on June 21, 2017. The net proceeds, after deducting the Initial Purchasers’ discounts, were $514.5 million, which includes proceeds from the Initial Purchasers’ exercise of their option to purchase additional Notes. We received the net proceeds on June 26, 2017, which we used to repurchase 1,698,400 shares of our common stock, to retire our outstanding bank debt, and to provide additional cash resources to fund the Conexant and Marvell Business Acquisitions.

14

The Notes bear interest at a rate of 0.50% per year. Interest accrued from June 26, 2017 and is payable semi-annually in arrears, on June 15 and December 15 of each year, beginning on December 15, 2017. The Notes are senior unsecured obligations and rank senior in right of payment to any of our indebtedness that is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Notes; equal in right of paym ent to any our liabilities that are not so subordinated; effectively junior in right of payment to any of our secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness; and structurally junior to all indebtedness and other li abilities (including trade payables) of our subsidiaries.

The Notes mature on June 15, 2022, or the Maturity Date, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted.

Holders may convert all or any portion of their Notes, in multiples of $1,000 principal amounts, at their option at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding March 15, 2022 under certain defined circumstances.

On or after March 15, 2022 until the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the Maturity Date, holders may convert all or any portion of their Notes, in multiples of $1,000 principal amounts, at the option of the holder. Upon conversion, we will pay or deliver, at our election, shares of common stock, cash, or a combination of cash and shares of common stock.

The conversion rate for the Notes is initially 13.6947 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Notes (equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $73.02 per share of common stock). The conversion rate is subject to adjustment in certain circumstances.

Upon the occurrence of a fundamental change (as defined in the Notes indenture), holders of the Notes may require us to repurchase for cash all or a portion of their Notes at a fundamental change repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest up to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date.

We may not redeem the Notes prior to June 20, 2020. We may redeem for cash all or any portion of the Notes, at our option, on or after June 20, 2020, if the last reported sale price of our common stock, as determined by us, has been at least 130% of the conversion price then in effect for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during any 30 consecutive trading day period (including the last trading day of such period) ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the date on which we provide notice of redemption at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest up to, but excluding, the redemption date. Our policy is to settle the principal amount of our Notes with cash upon conversion or redemption.

As of the issuance date of the Notes, we recorded $82.1 million of the principal amount to equity, representing the debt discount for the difference between our estimated nonconvertible debt borrowing rate of 4.39% and the coupon rate of the Notes of 0.50% using a five-year life, which coincides with the term of the Notes. In addition, we allocated the total of $11.1 million of debt issuance costs, consisting of the Initial Purchaser’s discount of $10.5 million and legal, accounting, and printing costs of $579,000, pro rata, to the equity and debt components of the Notes, or $1.9 million and $9.2 million, respectively. The debt discount and the debt issuance costs allocated to the debt component are amortized as interest expense using the effective interest method over five years.

The contractual interest expense and amortization of discount on the Notes for the six months ended December 31, 2017, were as follows (in millions):

|  | Six Months Ended |
|  | December 31, |
|  | 2017 |
Interest expense |  | $ | 1.3 |
Amortization of discount and debt issuance costs |  |  | 8.4 |
Total interest |  | $ | 9.7 |

The unamortized amounts of the debt issuance costs and discount associated with the Notes as of December 31, 2017 were $8.3 million and $74.5 million, respectively.

Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan Arrangement

At the end of fiscal 2017, we had $220.0 million principal outstanding under our credit agreement consisting of $100.0 million under our revolving credit facility and $120.0 million under our term loan arrangement. At the beginning of fiscal 2018, we issued $525.0 million principal amount of convertible senior notes, or the Notes, and utilized a portion of the proceeds from our Notes to retire the outstanding principal and interest balances on our revolving credit facility and our term loan arrangement. At the end of July

15

2017, we made an election to reduce the commitment under the revolving credit facility from $450.0 million to $250.0 million as we were able to complete the Conexant Acquisition with ava ilable cash.

In September 2017, we entered into an Amendment and Restatement Agreement, or the Agreement, with the lenders that are party thereto, or the Lenders, and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent for the Lenders. The Agreement terminated our term loan arrangement and provides for a revolving credit facility in a principal amount of up to $200 million, which includes a $20 million sublimit for letters of credit and a $20 million sublimit for swingline loans. Under the terms of the Agreement, we may, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, request increases in the revolving credit facility commitments in an aggregate principal amount of up to $100 million to the extent existing or new lenders agree to provide such increased or additional commitments, as applicable. Proceeds under the revolving credit facility are available for working capital and general corporate purposes. As of December 31, 2017, there is no balance outstanding under the revolving credit facility. As a result of terminating our term loan arrangement, we expensed the remaining debt issuance costs attributable to the term loan of $1.0 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2018.

The revolving credit facility is required to be repaid in full on the earlier of (i) September 27, 2022 and (ii) the date 91 days prior to the Maturity Date of Notes if the Notes have not been refinanced in full by such date. Debt issuance costs of $2.3 million will be amortized over 60 months.

Our obligations under the Agreement are guaranteed by the material domestic subsidiaries of our company, subject to certain exceptions (such material subsidiaries, together with our company, collectively, the Credit Parties). The obligations of the Credit Parties under the Agreement and the other loan documents delivered in connection therewith are secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of the existing and future personal property of the Credit Parties, including, without limitation, 65% of the voting capital stock of certain of the Credit Parties’ direct foreign subsidiaries, subject to certain exceptions.

The revolving credit facility bears interest at our election of a Base Rate plus an Applicable Margin or LIBOR plus an Applicable Margin. Swingline loans bear interest at a Base Rate plus an Applicable Margin. The Base Rate is a floating rate that is the greater of the Prime Rate, the Federal Funds Rate plus 50 basis points, or LIBOR plus 100 basis points. The Applicable Margin is based on a sliding scale which ranges from 0.25 to 100 basis points for Base Rate loans and 100 basis points to 175 basis points for LIBOR loans. We are required to pay a commitment fee on any unused commitments under the Agreement which is determined on a leverage-based sliding scale ranging from 0.175% to 0.25% per annum. Interest and fees are payable on a quarterly basis. There is no balance outstanding under the revolving credit facility.

Under the Agreement, there are various restrictive covenants, including three financial covenants which limit the consolidated total leverage ratio, or leverage ratio, the consolidated interest coverage ratio, or interest coverage ratio, a restriction which places a limit on the amount of capital expenditures that may be made in any fiscal year, a restriction that permits up to $50 million per fiscal quarter of accounts receivable financings, and sets the Specified Leverage Ratio. The leverage ratio is the ratio of debt as of the measurement date to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or EBITDA, for the four consecutive quarters ending with the quarter of measurement. The current leverage ratio shall not exceed 3.50 to 1.00 provided that for the four fiscal quarters ending after the date of a material acquisition, such maximum leverage ratio shall be adjusted to 3.75 to 1.00, and thereafter, shall not be more than 3.50 to 1.00. The interest coverage ratio is EBITDA to interest expense for the four consecutive quarters ending with the quarter of measurement. The interest coverage ratio must not be less than 3.50 to 1.0 during the term of the Agreement. The Specified Leverage Ratio is the ratio used in determining, among other things, whether we are permitted to make dividends and/or prepay certain indebtedness, at a fixed ratio of 3.00 to 1.00. As of the end of the quarter, we were in compliance with the restrictive covenants.

11. Share-Based Compensation

During the three months ended September 30, 2017, we adopted the accounting standard update, or ASU, for Compensation-Stock Compensation which was issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB. This update simplifies several aspects of the accounting for employee share-based payment transactions including the accounting for income taxes, forfeitures, and statutory tax withholding requirements, as well as classification in the statement of cash flows. Upon adoption of this ASU, we elected to change our accounting policy to account for forfeitures as they occur and we applied the accounting policy change on a modified retrospective basis. As a result of the adoption of this ASU, we recognized the net cumulative effect of this change as a $24.7 million increase to retained earnings, a $1.0 million increase to additional paid-in capital and established an additional $25.7 million of deferred tax assets for research credit and alternative minimum tax credit carryforwards. We have reflected excess tax benefits for share-based payments in the statement of cash flows as operating activities rather than financing activities on a prospective basis and therefore prior periods have not been adjusted.

Share-based compensation and the related tax benefit recognized in our condensed consolidated statements of income were as follows (in millions):

|  | Three Months Ended |  |  | Six Months Ended |

Income tax benefit on share-based compensation |  | $ | (1.3 | ) |  | $ | 4.3 |  |  | $ | 2.7 |  |  | $ | 8.0 |

Historically, we have issued new shares in connection with our share-based compensation plans, however, treasury shares are also available for issuance. Any additional shares repurchased under our common stock repurchase program will be available for issuance under our share-based compensation plans.

Stock Options

Stock option activity, including stock options granted, exercised, and forfeited, weighted average exercise prices for stock options outstanding and exercisable, and the aggregate intrinsic value were as follows:

|  | Stock |  |  | Weighted |  |  | Aggregate |

The aggregate intrinsic value was determined using the closing price of our common stock on December 29, 2017 of $39.94.

Of the shares delivered, 119,258 shares valued at $4.6 million were withheld to meet statutory tax withholding requirements.

Market Stock Units

Our Amended and Restated 2010 Incentive Compensation Plan provides for the grant of MSU awards to our employees, consultants, and directors. An MSU is a promise to deliver shares of our common stock at a future date based on the achievement of market-based performance requirements in accordance with the terms of the MSU grant agreement.

We have granted MSUs to our executive officers, and other management members, which are designed to vest in three tranches with the target quantity for each tranche equal to one-third of the total MSU grant. The first tranche vests based on a one-year performance period; the second tranche vests based on a two-year performance period; and the third tranche vests based on a three-year performance period. Performance is measured based on the achievement of a specified level of total stockholder return, or TSR, relative to the TSR of the S&P Semiconductor Select Industry Index, or SPSISC Index for grants beginning in fiscal 2018 and relative to the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index, or SOX Index for grants made prior to fiscal 2018. The potential payout ranges from 0% to 200% of the grant target quantity and is adjusted on a two-to-one ratio based on our TSR performance relative to the SPSISC Index TSR or SOX Index TSR using the following formula:

(100% + ([Synaptics TSR — {SPSISC Index TSR or SOX Index TSR}] x 2))

The payout for the first tranche and the second tranche will not exceed 100% and the payout for the third tranche will be calculated based on the total target quantity for the entire grant multiplied by the payout factor, based on performance for the three-year performance period, which will then be reduced by shares issued for the first tranche and the second tranche.

Delivery of shares earned, if any, will take place on the dates provided in the applicable MSU grant agreement, assuming the grantee is still an employee, consultant, or director of our company at the end of the applicable performance period. On the delivery date, we withhold shares to cover statutory tax withholding requirements and deliver a net quantity of shares to the employee, consultant, or director after such withholding. Until delivery of shares, the grantee has no rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares underlying the MSU award.

During the six months ended December 31, 2017, MSU activity, including MSUs granted, delivered, and forfeited, and the balance and aggregate intrinsic value of MSUs as of December 31, 2017 was as follows:

|  |  |  |  |  | Aggregate |
|  | MSU |  |  | Intrinsic |
|  | Awards |  |  | Value |
|  | Outstanding |  |  | (in millions) |
Balance as of June 30, 2017 |  |  | 158,596 |  |  |  |  |
Granted |  |  | 300,071 |  |  |  |  |
Performance adjustment |  |  | (68,003 | ) |  |  |  |
Delivered |  |  | - |  |  |  |  |
Forfeited |  |  | (8,733 | ) |  |  |  |
Balance as of December 31, 2017 |  |  | 381,931 |  |  | $ | 15.3 |

We value MSUs using the Monte Carlo simulation model on the date of grant and amortize the compensation expense over the three-year performance and service period on a straight-line basis. The unrecognized share-based compensation cost of our outstanding MSUs was approximately $20.8 million as of December 31, 2017, which will be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 1.6 years.

Performance Stock Units

Our Amended and Restated 2010 Incentive Compensation Plan provides for the grant of PSU awards to our employees, consultants, and directors. A PSU is a promise to deliver shares of our common stock at a future date based on the achievement of performance-based requirements in accordance with the terms of the PSU grant agreement.

We have granted PSUs to our executive officers and other management members, which are designed to vest in three tranches with the target quantity for each tranche equal to one-third of the total PSU grant. The grants have a specific one-year performance period and vesting occurs over three service periods with the final service period ending approximately three years from the grant date. Performance is measured based on the achievement of a specified level of non-GAAP earnings per share. The potential payout ranges from 0% to 200% of the grant target quantity and is adjusted on a linear basis with a payout triggering if our non-GAAP earnings per share equals greater than 65% of the target with a maximum payout achieved at 135% of target.

Delivery of shares earned, if any, will take place on the dates provided in the applicable PSU grant agreement, assuming the grantee is still an employee, consultant, or director of our company at the end of the applicable service period. On the delivery date, we withhold shares to cover statutory tax withholding requirements and deliver a net quantity of shares to the employee, consultant, or director after such withholding. Until delivery of shares, the grantee has no rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares underlying the PSU award.

During the six months ended December 31, 2017, there were 300,071 PSUs granted and no PSUs were delivered or forfeited. The aggregate intrinsic value of PSUs as of December 31, 2017 was $12.0 million.

We value PSUs using the aggregate intrinsic value on the date of grant and amortize the compensation expense over the three-year service period on a ratable basis, dependent upon the probability of meeting the performance measures. The unrecognized share-based compensation cost of our outstanding PSUs was approximately $11.0 million as of December 31, 2017, which will be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 1.9 years.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

Shares purchased, weighted average purchase price, cash received, and the aggregate intrinsic value for employee stock purchase plan purchases during the six-month period ended December 31, 2017 were as follows (in millions, except for shares purchased and weighted average price):

Shares purchased |  |  | 210,798 |
Weighted average purchase price |  | $ | 32.17 |
Cash received |  | $ | 6.8 |
Aggregate intrinsic value |  | $ | 1.2 |

12. Income Taxes

On December 22, 2017, the U.S. government enacted comprehensive tax legislation, commonly known as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, or the Act, which significantly reforms the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The Act contains broad and complex changes to corporate taxation, including in part reduction of the U.S. federal corporate tax rate from 35% to 21%, requires companies to pay a one-time transition tax on earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries that were previously considered permanently reinvested, and creates new taxes on certain foreign sourced earnings. As our accounting and tax year is the fiscal period ending on the last Saturday in June, U.S. federal tax law requires that taxpayers with a fiscal year that spans the effective date of a rate change to calculate a blended tax rate based on the pro rata number of days in the fiscal year before and after the effective date. As a result, our U.S. federal tax rate for fiscal 2018 is a days-weighted blended tax rate of 28.17%. For fiscal 2019 and subsequent tax years, our U.S. federal tax rate will be 21%.

As of December 31, 2017, we have not fully completed our accounting for the tax effects of the Act; however, in certain cases, we have made a reasonable estimate of the effects of the enactment. In cases where we have not been able to make a reasonable estimate, we continue to account for those items based on our existing accounting policies. For the items for which we were able to determine a reasonable estimate, namely the one-time transition tax and the remeasurement of deferred tax at the new tax rate, we recognized provisional tax expense of $46.5 million, which is included as a component of provision for income tax expenses in the three and six months ended December 31, 2017. Of the $46.5 million provisional tax expense, $54.4 million was for discrete tax expense items consisting of the one-time transition tax and the remeasurement of the beginning balance of U.S. federal deferred tax assets, partially offset by a non-discrete tax benefit of $7.9 million, which has an impact of 12.6% on our annual effective tax rate. As of December 31, 2017, we remeasured our U.S. federal deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the tax rates at which they are expected to reverse in the future and recorded a discrete tax provision of $5.1 million.

The one-time transition tax is based on our post-1986 foreign earnings and profits, or E&P, which we have previously excluded from U.S. income taxes due to our position that we would permanently reinvest future earnings. The one-time transition tax is applied at a 15.5% tax rate on cash assets and an 8% tax rate for other specified assets. We recorded a provisional amount for our one-time transition tax liability for our foreign subsidiaries, resulting in an increase in income tax expense of $49.3 million, net of foreign tax credits. We also expect to fully utilize all of our federal research tax credit carryforwards generated from previous years.

We have not yet completed our calculation of the total post-1986 foreign E&P for these foreign subsidiaries. This amount may change when we finalize the determination of our E&P previously deferred from U.S. federal taxation and finalize the amounts held in cash or other specified assets. No additional income taxes have been provided for any remaining undistributed foreign earnings not subject to the transition tax and any additional outside basis difference inherent in these entities as these amounts continue to be indefinitely reinvested in foreign operations. We did not have the necessary information prepared or analyzed to develop a reasonable estimate of the tax liability, if any, for our remaining outside basis difference including any deferred tax accounting that may be required due to other provisions in the Act beyond the one-time transition tax, including how that accounting may be affected by our ongoing accounting position to indefinitely reinvest unremitted foreign earnings.

We account for income taxes under the asset and liability method. The provision for income taxes recorded in interim periods is recorded by applying the estimated annual effective tax rate to year-to-date income before provision for income taxes, excluding the effects of significant unusual or infrequently occurring discrete items. The tax effects of discrete items are recorded in the same period that the related discrete items are reported and results in a difference between the actual effective tax rate and the estimated annual effective tax rate.

The provision for income taxes of $53.3 million and $6.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, represented estimated federal, foreign, and state income taxes. The effective tax rate for the three months ended December 31, 2017 diverged from the combined U.S. federal and state statutory tax rate primarily because of the impact of the one-time transition tax on E&P, the impact of the reduction in the U.S. federal tax rate on our net deferred tax assets, foreign withholding taxes, nondeductible amortization, the impact of accounting for qualified stock options, and foreign income taxed at higher tax rates, partially offset by benefits from research credits. The effective tax rate for the three months ended December 31, 2016, diverged from the combined U.S. federal and state statutory tax rate, primarily because of foreign income taxed at lower tax rates and research credits, partially offset by foreign withholding taxes, nondeductible amortization, and the impact of accounting for qualified stock options.

20

The provision for income taxes of $56.5 million and $7.6 million for the six months ended December 31, 2017, and 2016, respectively, represented estimated federal, foreign, and state income taxes. The effective tax rate f or the three months ended December 31, 2017 diverged from the combined U.S. federal and state statutory tax rate primarily because of the impact of the one-time transition tax on E&P, the impact of the reduction in the U.S. federal tax rate on our net defe rred tax assets, foreign withholding taxes, nondeductible amortization, the impact of accounting for qualified stock options, and foreign income taxed at higher tax rates, partially offset by benefits from research credits. The effective tax rate for the t hree months ended December 31, 2016, diverged from the combined U.S. federal and state statutory tax rate, primarily because of foreign income taxed at lower tax rates and research credits, partially offset by foreign withholding taxes, nondeductible amort ization, and the impact of accounting for qualified stock options.

The total liability for gross unrecognized tax benefits related to uncertain tax positions increased $2.8 million during the six months ended December 31, 2017, to $18.0 million from $15.2 million at June 30, 2017, and was included in other long-term liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. If recognized, the total gross unrecognized tax benefits would reduce the effective tax rate on income from continuing operations. Accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2017 were $1.3 million; this balance increased by $0.1 million compared to June 30, 2017. We classify interest and penalties as components of income tax expense. It is reasonably possible that the amount of the liability for unrecognized tax benefits may change within the next twelve months and an estimate of the range of possible changes may include an increase in our liability of up to $2.4 million.

In July 2015, the U.S. Tax Court issued an opinion in Altera Corp. v. Commissioner related to a treasury regulation addressing the treatment of stock-based compensation in a cost-sharing arrangement with a related party. The U.S. Department of the Treasury has not withdrawn the requirement in its regulations related to the treatment of stock-based compensation. The Commissioner filed an appeal to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals in February 2016. While we determined no adjustment to our financial statements is required due to the uncertainties with respect to the ultimate resolution, we will continue to monitor developments in this case.

Our major tax jurisdictions are the United States, Hong Kong SAR, and Japan. From fiscal 2010 onward, we remain subject to examination by one or more of these jurisdictions. We are currently under an income tax examination by the IRS for fiscal years 2014 and 2015, which is in the early stages. No issues have been raised during the examination so far.

During the three months ended September 30, 2017, we early adopted the new ASU on Income Taxes: Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory, which reduces the complexity in the accounting standards by allowing the recognition of current and deferred income taxes for an intra-entity asset transfer, other than inventory, when the transfer occurs. Historically, recognition of the income tax consequence of an intra-entity asset transfer was deferred and recognized either upon the disposition of the asset or over the economic life of the asset. We applied this amendment on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment of $8.3 million directly to retained earnings as of the beginning of fiscal 2018.

13. Segment, Customers, and Geographic Information

We operate in one segment: the development, marketing, and sale of semiconductor products used in electronic devices and products. We generate our revenue from three broad product categories: the mobile product market, the personal computing, or PC, product market, and the Internet of Things product market, or IoT.

14. Comprehensive Income/(Loss)

Our comprehensive income/(loss) generally consists of net income/(loss) plus the effect of unrealized gains and losses on our investments, primarily due to temporary changes in market value of certain of our ARS investments. In addition, we recognize the noncredit portion of other-than-temporary impairment on debt securities in other comprehensive income/(loss). We recognize foreign currency remeasurement adjustments and foreign currency transaction gains and losses in our condensed consolidated statements of operations as the U.S. dollar is the functional currency of our foreign entities.

15. Restructuring Activities Announced November 2017

In November 2017, we committed to a plan and initiated a restructuring action intended to streamline and reduce our operating cost structure and capitalize on acquisition synergies. While the total cost of this restructuring action is subject to change as we refine our plans, we currently estimate the cost to be $9.5 million to $10.5 million for fiscal 2018. Restructuring costs related to the November 2017 restructuring activities were recorded to the restructuring costs line item within our condensed consolidated statements of income. These costs primarily related to severance costs for a reduction in headcount. The remaining restructuring charges for employee severance and benefits costs and facility consolidation and related charges are expected to be recognized before the end of fiscal 2018. The restructuring liability activities during the six months ended December 31, 2017 were as follows (in millions):

|  | Employee Severance |  |  |  |  |

Our manufacturing operations are based on a variable cost model in which we outsource all of our production requirements and generally drop ship our products directly to our customers from our contract manufacturers’ facilities, thereby reducing the need for significant capital expenditures and allowing us to minimize our investment in inventories. This approach requires us to work closely with our contract manufacturers and semiconductor foundries to ensure adequate production capacity to meet our forecasted volume requirements. We provide our contract manufacturers with rolling forecasts and issue purchase orders based on our anticipated requirements. We do not have long-term supply contracts with any of our contract manufacturers. We use third-party wafer manufacturers to supply wafers and third-party packaging manufacturers to package our proprietary ASICs. In certain cases, we rely on a single source or a limited number of suppliers to provide other key components of our products. Our cost of revenue includes all costs associated with the production of our products, including materials; logistics; amortization of intangibles related to acquired developed technology, backlog, and supplier arrangements; fair value adjustments for inventory acquired in a business purchase transaction; manufacturing, assembly, and test costs paid to third-party manufacturers; and related overhead costs associated with our indirect manufacturing operations personnel. Additionally, we charge all warranty costs, losses on inventory purchase obligations, and write-downs to reduce the carrying value of obsolete, slow moving, and non-usable inventory to net realizable value, to cost of revenue.

Our gross margin generally reflects the combination of the added value we bring to our OEM customers’ products by meeting their custom design requirements and the impact of our ongoing cost-improvement programs. These cost-improvement programs include reducing materials and component costs, and implementing design and process improvements. Our newly introduced products

24

may have lower margins than our more mature products, which have realized greater benefits associated with our ongoing cost-improvement programs. As a result, new product introductions may initially negatively impact our gross margin.

Our research and development expenses include costs for supplies and materials related to product development, as well as the engineering costs incurred to design ASICs and human interface solutions for OEM customers prior to and after their commitment to incorporate those solutions into their products. We are continuing our commitment to the technological and design innovation required to maintain our position in our existing markets, and to adapt our existing technologies or develop new technologies for new markets.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses include expenses related to sales, marketing, and administrative personnel; internal sales and outside sales representatives’ commissions; market and usability research; outside legal, accounting, and consulting costs; and other marketing and sales activities.

Acquired intangibles amortization, included in operating expenses, consists primarily of amortization of customer relationship and trademark intangible assets recognized under the purchase method for business combinations.

Restructuring costs primarily reflect severance and facilities costs related to our restructuring of operations to reduce operating expenses. These headcount-related costs and facilities costs were in cost of revenue, research and development, and selling, general and administrative expenses.

Interest and other income/(expense), net, primarily reflects interest expense on convertible notes as well as the amortization of debt issuance costs and discount on convertible notes.

Equity investment loss includes amortization of intangible assets as well as our portion of the net loss reflected under the equity method of accounting in connection with our investment in OXi Technology Ltd.

Net Revenue

Net revenue was $430.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2017 compared with $461.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2016, a decrease of $30.9 million, or 6.7%. Of this net revenue, $261.8 million, or 60.8% was from mobile product applications, $106.9 million, or 24.9% was from IoT product applications, and $61.7 million, or 14.3%, was from PC product applications. The decrease in net revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2017, was attributable to a decrease in mobile and PC product applications, partially offset by an increase in net revenue from IoT product applications. Mobile product applications decreased as a result of a decline in units sold (which decreased 41.1%), partially offset by higher average selling prices for mobile product applications (which increased 18.0%). PC product applications decreased as a result of a decline in units sold (which decreased 10.3%), partially offset by higher average selling prices for PC product applications (which increased 7.8%). Net revenue from IoT product applications increased primarily as a result of the Conexant Acquisition and Marvell Business Acquisition.

Net revenue was $847.8 million for the six months ended December 31, 2017 compared with $847.5 million for the six months ended December 31, 2016, an increase of $0.3 million, or less than 0.1%. Of this net revenue, $554.7 million, or 65.4% was from mobile product applications, $166.1 million, or 19.6%, was from IoT product applications, and $127.0 million, or 15.0%, was from PC product applications. The increase in net revenue for the six months ended December 31, 2017, was attributable to an increase in net revenue from IoT and PC product applications, partially offset by a decrease in mobile product applications. Net revenue from IoT product applications increased primarily as a result of the Conexant Acquisition and Marvell Business Acquisition. PC product applications increased as a result of higher average selling prices (which increased 6.2%) and more units sold (which increased 0.7%). Mobile product applications decreased as a result of a decline in units sold (which decreased 27.4%), partially offset by higher average selling prices for mobile product applications (which increased 10.6%).

Gross Margin

Gross margin as a percentage of net revenue was 26.8%, or $115.2 million, for the three months ended December 31, 2017 compared with 30.1%, or $138.7 million, for the three months ended December 31, 2016. The 330 basis point decline in gross margin was primarily due to $18.2 million of inventory fair value adjustments associated with the Conexant Acquisition and the Marvell Business Acquisition, as well as a $8.2 million increase in acquired intangibles amortization that were charged to cost of revenue during the quarter, partially offset by a favorable mix due primarily to IoT business products which have higher gross margins.

Gross margin as a percentage of net revenue was 27.1%, or $229.6 million, for the six months ended December 31, 2017 compared with 30.9%, or $262.1 million, for the six months ended December 31, 2016. The 380 basis point decline in gross margin was primarily due to $33.9 million of inventory fair value adjustments associated with the Conexant Acquisition and the Marvell Business Acquisition, as well as a $12.0 million increase in acquired intangibles amortization that were charged to cost of revenue during the quarter, partially offset by a favorable mix due primarily to IoT business products which have higher gross margins.

We continually introduce new product solutions, many of which have life cycles of less than one year. Further, because we sell our technology solutions in designs that are generally unique or specific to an OEM customer’s application, gross margin varies on a product-by-product basis, making our cumulative gross margin a blend of our product specific designs. As a virtual manufacturer, our gross margin percentage is generally not materially impacted by our shipment volume. We charge losses on inventory purchase obligations and write-downs to reduce the carrying value of obsolete, slow moving, and non-usable inventory to net realizable value (including warranty costs) to cost of revenue.

Operating Expenses

Research and Development Expenses. Research and development expenses increased $18.7 million to $92.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2017, compared with the three months ended December 31, 2016. The increase in research and development expenses primarily reflected a $15.4 million increase in personnel-related costs, which included additional headcount due to our recent acquisitions; a $2.9 million increase in infrastructure related costs; a $1.2 million increase in software licensing costs; and a $0.7 million increase in non-employee services; partially offset by a $2.2 million decrease in supplies and project related costs.

Research and development expenses increased $32.4 million to $179.3 million for the six months ended December 31, 2017 compared with the six months ended December 31, 2016. The increase in research and development expenses primarily reflected a $25.4 million increase in personnel-related costs, which included additional headcount due to our recent acquisitions; a $4.8 million increase in infrastructure related costs; a $1.1 million increase in software licensing costs; a $1.3 million increase in travel related expenses; and a $1.2 million increase in non-employee services; partially offset by a $1.7 million decrease in supplies and project related costs.

27

Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general, and administrative expenses increased $5.1 million to $37.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2017, compared with the three months ended December 31, 2016. The increase in selling, general, and administrative expenses primarily reflected an increase in personnel-related costs, wh ich included additional headcount due to our recent acquisitions.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses increased $10.8 million to $77.7 million for the six months ended December 31, 2017, compared with the six months ended December 31, 2016. The increase in selling, general, and administrative expenses primarily reflected an increase in personnel-related costs, which included additional headcount due to our recent acquisitions.

Acquired intangibles amortization. Acquired intangibles amortization reflects the amortization of intangibles acquired through acquisitions. For further discussion of acquired intangibles amortization, see Note 7 included in the condensed consolidated financial statements contained elsewhere in this Report.

Restructuring costs. Restructuring costs of $6.6 million in the three months ended December 31, 2017 reflect severance costs related to restructuring of the operations to reduce operating costs which commenced in the second quarter of fiscal 2018. We expect to incur additional restructuring costs in fiscal 2018 as our restructuring activities are completed, which will include additional severance costs and facility consolidation costs, ranging from $2.9 million to $3.9 million. See Note 15 to the condensed consolidated financial statements contained elsewhere in this report. Restructuring costs of $7.0 million in the six months ended December 31, 2016, reflect severance costs related to restructuring of the operations to reduce operating costs which commenced in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016.

Interest and other income/(expense), net. Interest and other income/(expense), net primarily includes the amortization of debt discount and issuance costs, as well as interest on the debt. See Liquidity and Capital Resources included in the next section of this Report.

Provision for Income Taxes

On December 22, 2017, the U.S. government enacted comprehensive tax legislation, commonly known as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, or the Act, which significantly reforms the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The Act contains broad and complex changes to corporate taxation, including in part reduction of the U.S. federal corporate tax rate from 35% to 21%, requires companies to pay a one-time transition tax on earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries that were previously considered permanently reinvested, and creates new taxes on certain foreign sourced earnings. As our accounting and tax year is the fiscal period ending on the last Saturday in June, U.S. federal tax law requires that taxpayers with a fiscal year that spans the effective date of a rate change to calculate a blended tax rate based on the pro rata number of days in the fiscal year before and after the effective date. As a result, our U.S. federal tax rate for fiscal 2018 is a days-weighted blended tax rate of 28.17%. For fiscal 2019 and subsequent tax years, our U.S. federal tax rate will be 21%.

As of December 31, 2017, we have not fully completed our accounting for the tax effects of the Act; however, in certain cases, we have made a reasonable estimate of the effects of the enactment. In cases where we have not been able to make a reasonable estimate, we continue to account for those items based on our existing accounting policies. For the items for which we were able to determine a reasonable estimate, namely the one-time transition tax and the remeasurement of deferred tax at the new tax rate, we recognized provisional tax expense of $46.5 million, which is included as a component of provision for income tax expenses in the three and six months ended December 31, 2017. Of the $46.5 million provisional tax expense, $54.4 million was for discrete tax expense items consisting of the one-time transition tax and the remeasurement of the beginning balance of U.S. federal deferred tax assets, partially offset by a non-discrete tax benefit of $7.9 million, which has an impact of 12.6% on our annual effective tax rate. As of December 31, 2017, we remeasured our U.S. federal deferred tax assets and liabilities based on the tax rates at which they are expected to reverse in the future and recorded a discrete tax provision of $5.1 million.

The one-time transition tax is based on our post-1986 foreign earnings and profits, or E&P, which we have previously excluded from U.S. income taxes due to our position that we would permanently reinvest future earnings. The one-time transition tax is applied at a 15.5% tax rate on cash assets and an 8% tax rate for other specified assets. We recorded a provisional amount for our one-time transition tax liability for our foreign subsidiaries, resulting in an increase in income tax expense of $49.3 million, net of foreign tax credits. We also expect to fully utilize all of our federal research tax credit carryforwards generated from previous years.

We have not yet completed our calculation of the total post-1986 foreign E&P for these foreign subsidiaries. This amount may change when we finalize the determination of our E&P previously deferred from U.S. federal taxation and finalize the amounts held in cash or other specified assets. No additional income taxes have been provided for any remaining undistributed foreign earnings not subject to the transition tax and any additional outside basis difference inherent in these entities as these amounts continue to be

28

indefinitely reinvested in foreign operations. We d id not have the necessary information prepared or analyzed to develop a reasonable estimate of the tax liability, if any, for our remaining outside basis difference including any deferred tax accounting that may be required due to other provisions in the A ct beyond the one-time transition tax, including how that accounting may be affected by our ongoing accounting position to indefinitely reinvest unremitted foreign earnings.

We account for income taxes under the asset and liability method. The provision for income taxes recorded in interim periods is recorded by applying the estimated annual effective tax rate to year-to-date income before provision for income taxes, excluding the effects of significant unusual or infrequently occurring discrete items. The tax effects of discrete items are recorded in the same period that the related discrete items are reported and results in a difference between the actual effective tax rate and the estimated annual effective tax rate.

The provision for income taxes of $53.3 million and $6.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, represented estimated federal, foreign, and state income taxes. The effective tax rate for the three months ended December 31, 2017 diverged from the combined U.S. federal and state statutory tax rate primarily because of the impact of the one-time transition tax on E&P, the impact of the reduction in the U.S. federal tax rate on our net deferred tax assets, foreign withholding taxes, nondeductible amortization, the impact of accounting for qualified stock options, and foreign income taxed at higher tax rates, partially offset by benefits from research credits. The effective tax rate for the three months ended December 31, 2016, diverged from the combined U.S. federal and state statutory tax rate, primarily because of foreign income taxed at lower tax rates and research credits, partially offset by foreign withholding taxes, nondeductible amortization, and the impact of accounting for qualified stock options.

The provision for income taxes of $56.5 million and $7.6 million for the six months ended December 31, 2017, and 2016, respectively, represented estimated federal, foreign, and state income taxes. The effective tax rate for the three months ended December 31, 2017 diverged from the combined U.S. federal and state statutory tax rate primarily because of the impact of the one-time transition tax on E&P, the impact of the reduction in the U.S. federal tax rate on our net deferred tax assets, foreign withholding taxes, nondeductible amortization, the impact of accounting for qualified stock options, and foreign income taxed at higher tax rates, partially offset by benefits from research credits. The effective tax rate for the three months ended December 31, 2016, diverged from the combined U.S. federal and state statutory tax rate, primarily because of foreign income taxed at lower tax rates and research credits, partially offset by foreign withholding taxes, nondeductible amortization, and the impact of accounting for qualified stock options.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our cash and cash equivalents were $252.2 million as of December 31, 2017, compared with $367.8 million as of June 30, 2017, a decrease of $115.6 million. The decrease primarily reflected the combination of $395.9 million used for the acquisition of businesses, net of cash and cash equivalents acquired; $220.0 million for payment of debt; $93.6 million used to repurchase 1,698,400 shares of our common stock; and $19.5 million used for the purchase of property and equipment; partially offset by $514.5 million in net proceeds from issuance of convertible notes and $103.2 million of net cash provided by operating activities. At this time, we consider earnings of our foreign subsidiaries indefinitely invested overseas and have made no provision for income or withholding taxes that may result from a future repatriation of those earnings. As of December 31, 2017, $162.2 million of cash and cash equivalents was held by our foreign subsidiaries. If these funds are needed for our operations in the United States, we may be required to accrue and pay certain state and foreign taxes to repatriate these funds.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities. Operating activities during the six months ended December 31, 2017 generated $103.2 million compared with $52.4 net cash generated during the six months ended December 31, 2016. From June 30, 2017 to December 31, 2017, our days sales outstanding decreased slightly from 54 days to 49 days. Our annual inventory turns decreased from nine to eight due to the additional inventory acquired in recent acquisitions, including the fair value adjustment recorded as part of the purchase accounting for such acquisitions. From June 30, 2016 to December 31, 2016, our days sales outstanding decreased from 70 days to 51 days, due to a much smaller percentage of the quarter’s net revenue occurring late in the December 31, 2016 quarter compared with a much larger percentage of the quarter’s net revenue occurring late in the June 30, 2016 quarter. Our annual inventory turns increased from six to eight during the same period.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities. Cash used in investing activities during the six months ended December 31, 2017 consisted of $395.9 million for the acquisition of businesses, net of cash and cash equivalents acquired, $19.5 million for purchases of property and equipment, and $7.7 million for purchases of intangible assets. Cash used in investing activities during the six months ended December 31, 2016 consisted of $20.3 million for purchase of property and equipment and $15.8 million for the investment in a direct financing lease, partially offset by $7.5 million of proceeds from sales of investments.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities. Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended December 31, 2017 was $204.4 million compared with $26.9 million used in financing activities for the six months ended December 31, 2016. Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended De cember 31, 2017 was primarily related to $514.5 million in proceeds from issuance of convertible debt, net of issuance costs, partially offset by $220.0 million used for payment of debt and $93.6 million used to repurchase 1,698,400 shares of our common st ock. Net cash used in financing activities for the three months ended December 31, 2016 primarily related to $25.0 million used to repurchase 508,063 shares of our common stock, $11.3 million for the payment of debt, partially offset by $13.1 million in p roceeds from issuance of shares.

Common Stock Repurchase Program. As of December 31, 2017, our board has cumulatively authorized $1.3 billion for our common stock repurchase program, which will expire in July 2019. The program authorizes us to purchase our common stock in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, depending upon market conditions and other factors. The number of shares purchased and the timing of purchases is based on the level of our cash balances, general business and market conditions, and other factors. Common stock purchased under this program is held as treasury stock. From April 2005 through December 31, 2017, we purchased 27,639,876 shares of our common stock in the open market for an aggregate cost of $1.1 billion. Treasury shares purchased prior to August 28, 2008 were not subject to the stock split on that date. During the six months ended December 31, 2017, we repurchased 1,698,400 shares of our common stock for a total cost of $93.6 million. As of December 31, 2017, the remaining available authorization under our common stock repurchase program is $226.1 million.

Convertible Debt

On June 20, 2017, we entered into a purchase agreement, or the Purchase Agreement, with Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, as representative of the initial purchasers named therein, or collectively, the Initial Purchasers, pursuant to which we agreed to issue and sell, and the Initial Purchasers agreed to purchase, $500 million aggregate principal amount of our 0.50% convertible senior notes due 2022, or the Notes, in a private placement transaction. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, we also granted the Initial Purchasers a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional $25 million aggregate principal amount of Notes, which was exercised in full on June 21, 2017. The net proceeds, after deducting the Initial Purchasers’ discounts, were $514.5 million, which includes proceeds from the Initial Purchasers’ exercise of their option to purchase additional Notes. We received the net proceeds on June 26, 2017, which we used to repurchase shares of our common stock, to retire our outstanding bank debt, and to provide additional cash resources to fund the Conexant and Marvell Business Acquisitions.

The Notes bear interest at a rate of 0.50% per year. Interest will accrue from June 26, 2017 and will be payable semi-annually in arrears, on June 15 and December 15 of each year, beginning on December 15, 2017. The Notes are senior unsecured obligations and rank senior in right of payment to any of our indebtedness that is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Notes; equal in right of payment to any our liabilities that are not so subordinated; effectively junior in right of payment to any of our secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness; and structurally junior to all indebtedness and other liabilities (including trade payables) of our subsidiaries.

The Notes mature on June 15, 2022, or the Maturity Date, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted.

Holders may convert all or any portion of their Notes, in multiples of $1,000 principal amounts, at their option at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding March 15, 2022 under certain defined circumstances.

On or after March 15, 2022 until the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the Maturity Date, holders may convert all or any portion of their Notes, in multiples of $1,000 principal amounts, at the option of the holder. Upon conversion, we will pay or deliver, at our election, shares of common stock, cash, or a combination of cash and shares of common stock.

The conversion rate for the Notes is initially 13.6947 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Notes (equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $73.02 per share of common stock). The conversion rate is subject to adjustment in certain circumstances.

Upon the occurrence of a fundamental change (as defined in the Notes indenture), holders of the Notes may require us to repurchase for cash all or a portion of their Notes at a fundamental change repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest up to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date.

We may not redeem the Notes prior to June 20, 2020. We may redeem for cash all or any portion of the Notes, at our option, on or after June 20, 2020, if the last reported sale price of our common stock, as determined by us, has been at least 130% of the conversion price then in effect for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during any 30 consecutive trading day period (including the last trading day of such period) ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the date on which we

30

provide notice of redemption at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest up to, but excluding, the redemption date. Our policy is to settle the principal amount of our N otes with cash upon conversion or redemption.

Bank Credit Facility. At the end of fiscal 2017, we had $220.0 million principal outstanding under our credit agreement consisting of $100.0 million under our revolving credit facility and $120.0 million under our term loan arrangement. At the beginning of fiscal 2018, we issued $525.0 million principal amount of convertible notes and utilized a portion of the proceeds from our Notes to retire the outstanding principal and interest balances on our revolving credit facility and our term loan arrangement. At the end of July 2017, we made an election to reduce the commitment under the revolving credit facility from $450.0 million to $250.0 million as we were able to complete the Conexant Acquisition with available cash.

In September 2017, we entered into an Amendment and Restatement Agreement, or the Agreement, with the lenders that are party thereto, or the Lenders, and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent for the Lenders. The Agreement terminated our term loan arrangement and provides for a revolving credit facility in a principal amount of up to $200 million, which includes a $20 million sublimit for letters of credit and a $20 million sublimit for swingline loans. Under the terms of the Agreement, we may, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, request increases in the revolving credit facility commitments in an aggregate principal amount of up to $100 million to the extent existing or new lenders agree to provide such increased or additional commitments, as applicable. Proceeds under the revolving credit facility are available for working capital and general corporate purposes. As of December 31, 2017, there is no balance outstanding under the revolving credit facility. As a result of terminating our term loan arrangement, we expensed the remaining debt issuance costs attributable to the term loan of $1.0 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2018.

The revolving credit facility is required to be repaid in full on the earlier of (i) September 27, 2022 and (ii) the date 91 days prior to the Maturity Date of the Notes if the Notes have not been refinanced in full by such date. Debt issuance costs of $2.3 million will be amortized over 60 months.

Our obligations under the Agreement are guaranteed by the material domestic subsidiaries of our company, subject to certain exceptions (such material subsidiaries, together with our company, collectively, the Credit Parties). The obligations of the Credit Parties under the Agreement and the other loan documents delivered in connection therewith are secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of the existing and future personal property of the Credit Parties, including, without limitation, 65% of the voting capital stock of certain of the Credit Parties’ direct foreign subsidiaries, subject to certain exceptions.

The revolving credit facility bears interest at our election of a Base Rate plus an Applicable Margin or LIBOR plus an Applicable Margin. Swingline loans bear interest at a Base Rate plus an Applicable Margin. The Base Rate is a floating rate that is the greater of the Prime Rate, the Federal Funds Rate plus 50 basis points, or LIBOR plus 100 basis points. The Applicable Margin is based on a sliding scale which ranges from 0.25 to 100 basis points for Base Rate loans and 100 basis points to 175 basis points for LIBOR loans. We are required to pay a commitment fee on any unused commitments under the Agreement which is determined on a leverage-based sliding scale ranging from 0.175% to 0.25% per annum. Interest and fees are payable on a quarterly basis. As of December 31, 2017, there is no balance outstanding under the revolving credit facility.

Under the Agreement, there are various restrictive covenants, including three financial covenants which limit the consolidated total leverage ratio, or leverage ratio, the consolidated interest coverage ratio, or interest coverage ratio, a restriction which places a limit on the amount of capital expenditures that may be made in any fiscal year, a restriction that permits up to $50 million per fiscal quarter of accounts receivable financings, and sets the Specified Leverage Ratio. The leverage ratio is the ratio of debt as of the measurement date to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or EBITDA, for the four consecutive quarters ending with the quarter of measurement. The current leverage ratio shall not exceed 3.50 to 1.00 provided that for the four fiscal quarters ending after the date of a material acquisition, such maximum leverage ratio shall be adjusted to 3.75 to 1.00, and thereafter, shall not be more than 3.50 to 1.00. The interest coverage ratio is EBITDA to interest expense for the four consecutive quarters ending with the quarter of measurement. The interest coverage ratio must not be less than 3.50 to 1.0 during the term of the Agreement. The Specified Leverage Ratio is the ratio used in determining, among other things, whether we are permitted to make dividends and/or prepay certain indebtedness, at a fixed ratio of 3.00 to 1.00.

$100 Million Shelf Registration. We have registered an aggregate of $100.0 million of common stock and preferred stock for issuance in connection with acquisitions, which shares will generally be freely tradeable after their issuance under Rule 145 of the Securities Act unless held by an affiliate of the acquired company, in which case such shares will be subject to the volume and manner of sale restrictions of Rule 144 of the Securities Act.

Liquidity and Capital Resources. We believe our existing cash and cash equivalents, anticipated cash flows from operating activities, and available credit under the Agreement will be sufficient to meet our working capital and other cash requirements for at

31

least th e next 12 months, our contingent consideration obligations associated with the acquisition of Validity, and our debt service obligations. Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including our revenue, the timing and extent of spending to support product development efforts, costs associated with restructuring activities net of projected savings from those activities, costs related to protecting our intellectual property, the expansion of sales and marketing activities, timing of introdu ctions of new products and enhancements to existing products, the costs to ensure access to adequate manufacturing, the costs of maintaining sufficient space for our workforce, the continuing market acceptance of our product solutions, our common stock rep urchase program, and the amount and timing of our investments in, or acquisitions of, other technologies or companies. Further equity or debt financing may not be available to us on acceptable terms or at all. If sufficient funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, our ability to take advantage of business opportunities or to respond to competitive pressures could be limited or severely constrained.

Based on our ability to access our cash and cash equivalents, our expected operating cash flows, and our other sources of cash, we do not anticipate the need to remit undistributed earnings of our foreign subsidiaries to meet our working capital and other cash requirements, but if we did remit such earnings we may be required to accrue and pay certain state and foreign taxes to repatriate these funds, which would adversely impact our financial position and results of operations.

Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments

Our material contractual obligations and commercial commitments as of December 31, 2017 were as follows (in millions):

|  | Remaining in Fiscal Year 2018 |  |  | Fiscal Year 2019 |  |  | Fiscal Year 2020 |  |  | Fiscal Year 2021 |  |  | Fiscal Year 2022 |  |  | Fiscal Year 2023 |  |  | Thereafter |  |  | Total |

(1) | Represents the principal and interest payable through the maturity date of the underlying contractual obligation.

(2) | Purchase obligations and other commitments include payments due for inventory purchase obligations with contract manufacturers, long-term software tool licenses, and other licenses.

(3) | Represents payments retained in connection with the earnout consideration related to the Validity acquisition.

In connection with the Validity acquisition in November 2013, we entered into a contingent consideration arrangement. The earnout period for this arrangement was complete as of March 31, 2016. As of December 31, 2017, $8.7 million of the final earnout consideration liability is outstanding; this balance represents amounts we have not paid and have retained, subject to resolution of matters relating to the Amkor Technology legal dispute (see Legal Proceedings under Note 9 included in the condensed consolidated financial statements contained elsewhere in this Report).

The amounts in the table above exclude unrecognized tax benefits of $18.0 million. As of December 31, 2017, we were unable to make a reasonably reliable estimate of when cash settlement with a taxing authority may occur in connection with our gross unrecognized tax benefit.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Effective

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued an accounting standard update, or ASU, on Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The ASU will supersede most of the existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when the new standard becomes effective, and requires entities to recognize revenue when they transfer promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration which the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. The ASU is effective for us in our fiscal year 2019, with early adoption permitted in the first quarter of fiscal 2018. We did not early adopt the new standard. The new standard permits the use of either the full retrospective or modified retrospective transition method and we plan to adopt the standard using the modified retrospective transition method. Based on our current assessment of the ASU and our related customer contracts and current revenue recognition methodologies and processes, the new revenue standard is not expected to have a material impact on the amount and timing of revenue recognized in our consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued an ASU on Leases. This update requires organizations that lease assets with lease terms of more than 12 months to recognize assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by those leases on their balance sheets. It

32

also requires new qualitative and quantitat ive disclosures to help investors and other financial statement users better understand the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. The new standard will be effective for us beginning in the first quarter of our fiscal year 2020, with early adoption permitted. We are evaluating the effects of adoption of this ASU on our consolidated financial statements.

33

ITE M 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

As of December 31, 2017, our market risk related to interest rates on our cash and cash equivalents and ARS investments, and foreign currency exchange risks has not changed materially from the risks disclosed in Item 7A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 24, 2017.

Variable Interest Rate Risk

As of December 31, 2017, there is no balance outstanding under our revolving credit facility. The revolving credit facility bears interest at our election of a Base Rate plus an Applicable Margin or LIBOR plus an Applicable Margin. Swingline loans bear interest at a Base Rate plus an Applicable Margin. The Base Rate is a floating rate that is the greater of the Prime Rate, the Federal Funds Rate plus 50 basis points, or LIBOR plus 100 basis points. The Applicable Margin is based on a sliding scale which ranges from 0.25 to 100 basis points for Base Rate loans and 100 basis points to 175 basis points for LIBOR loans. We are required to pay a commitment fee on any unused commitments under the Agreement which is determined on a leverage-based sliding scale ranging from 0.175% to 0.25% per annum. Interest and fees are payable on a quarterly basis.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and procedures designed to reasonably ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act, such as this Report, are recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and to reasonably ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer, or CEO, and the Chief Financial Officer, or CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our CEO and CFO, we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Report. Based on this evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this Report.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We assessed, with the participation of the CEO and CFO, any change in our internal control over financial reporting as of the end of the fiscal quarter covered by this Report.

Our assessment excluded Conexant which was acquired on July 25, 2017. Conexant had net revenues of approximately $57.4 million and total tangible assets of approximately $75.1 million, which are included in our condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the six months ended December 31, 2017. We are currently assessing the control environment of this acquired business. Conexant’s sales constitute approximately 6.8% of our sales for the quarterly period covered by this Report, and Conexant’s tangible assets constitute approximately 5.0% of our total assets as of the end of such period.

Under guidelines established by the SEC, companies are permitted to exclude acquisitions from their assessment of internal control over financial reporting during the first year of an acquisition while integrating the acquired company. During the integration period, management is developing additional controls to ensure the financial information provided by Conexant is complete and accurate in all material respects.

Except as noted above, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the three months ended December 31, 2017 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PA RT II—OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

You should carefully consider the following factors, together with all the other information included in this report and in the factors set forth in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 24, 2017, in evaluating our company and our business.

Comprehensive changes in tax laws could adversely affect our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

On December 22, 2017, the U.S. government enacted comprehensive tax legislation, commonly known as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, or the Act, which significantly reforms the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The Act contains broad and complex changes to corporate taxation, including in part reduction of the U.S federal corporate tax rate, limitation of the tax deduction for interest expense, a limitation on the deduction for net operating losses, elimination of net operating loss carrybacks, one-time taxation of foreign earnings at reduced tax rates regardless of whether they are repatriated, elimination of U.S. federal tax on foreign earnings (subject to certain important exceptions), immediate deductions for certain new investments instead of deductions for depreciation expense over time, a limitation on the deduction for compensation paid to certain executive officers, and modifying or repealing many business deductions and credits. As regulations, new legislation, or technical corrections are enacted to interpret various elements of the Act, these changes may result in adjustments to our estimates.

Notwithstanding the reduction in the corporate U.S. federal corporate tax rate, the initial impact of accounting for the Act was a material increase to our provision for income taxes in the quarter of enactment. The ongoing impact is uncertain, pending completion of U.S. federal and state regulations and guidance, and could adversely affect our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

Our Board of Directors has cumulatively authorized $1.3 billion for our common stock repurchase program, which expires at the end of July 2019. As of December 31, 2017, the remaining amount authorized for the repurchase of our common stock is $226.1 million. There were no repurchases under our common stock repurchase program during the three-month period ended December 31, 2017.
