SUBSIDIARY SHARE REPURCHASES AND TENDER OFFER
NOTE 13 – SUBSIDIARY SHARE REPURCHASES AND TENDER OFFER

In June 2015 the Company increased its ownership interest in PKL, a subsidiary of the Company based in Korea, to 99.77% from 99.75%, by purchasing shares of its common stock from noncontrolling interests at a cost of $0.1 million.

Since the second quarter of fiscal 2011, the board of directors of PSMC (in 2014 PSMC’s name was changed to PDMC, see Note 2), a subsidiary of the Company based in Taiwan, authorized several share repurchase programs for PSMC to purchase for retirement shares of its outstanding common stock. The last of these repurchase programs concluded in the first fiscal quarter of 2013 in which PSMC purchased shares at a cost of $4.2 million. These repurchase programs increased the Company's ownership in PSMC from 72.09% at October 28, 2012, to 75.11% at January 27, 2013. During fiscal 2013 the Company increased its ownership interest in PSMC, primarily through a tender offer, to 98.63% by purchasing shares at a cost of $28.1 million. In January 2014 the Company increased its ownership percentage in PSMC to 100% at a cost of $1.7 million by purchasing the remaining shares that were not owned by the Company.

The table below presents the effect of the change in the Company’s ownership interest in PSMC and PKL on the Company's equity for fiscal years 2015, 2014 and 2013 (in 2015 shares of PKL common stock were purchased, in 2014 shares of PSMC common stock were issued in connection with the DPTT Acquisition and shares were acquired from the former noncontrolling interests, and in 2013 shares of PSMC common stock were purchased).
