ON SEMICONDUCTOR CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Note 1:  Background and Basis of Presentation

      The accompanying consolidated financial statements as of and for the quarter and the nine months ended September 30, 2000 include the accounts of ON Semiconductor Corporation, its wholly-owned subsidiaries, and the majority-owned subsidiaries that it controls (collectively, the “Company”). An investment in a majority-owned joint venture that the Company does not control, as well as an investment in a 50%-owned joint venture, are accounted for on the equity method. Investments in companies that represent less than 20% of the related voting stock are accounted for on the cost basis.

      The accompanying unaudited financial information reflects all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. Such financial information should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto as of December 31, 1999 and for the period from August 4, 1999 through December 31, 1999 and the combined financial statements of the Semiconductor Components Group (“SCG”) of Motorola, Inc. (“Motorola”) for the period from January 1, 1999 through August 3, 1999 included in our Form 10-K/A as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on August 14, 2000.

      The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

      On August 4, 1999, the Company was recapitalized and certain related transactions were effected (the “Recapitalization”) pursuant to an agreement among ON Semiconductor Corporation, its subsidiary, Semiconductor Components Industries, LLC (“SCI LLC”), Motorola and affiliates of Texas Pacific Group. As a result of the Recapitalization, an affiliate of Texas Pacific Group owned approximately 91% and Motorola owned approximately 9% of the outstanding common stock of the Company. In addition, as part of these transactions, Texas Pacific Group received 1,500 shares and Motorola received 590 shares of the Company’s mandatorily redeemable preferred stock with a liquidation value of $209 million plus accrued and unpaid dividends. Motorola also received a $91 million junior subordinated note issued by SCI LLC. Cash payments to Motorola in connection with the Recapitalization were financed through equity investments by affiliates of Texas Pacific Group totaling $337.5 million, borrowings totaling $740.5 million under the Company’s $875 million senior bank facilities and the issuance of $400 million of 12% senior subordinated notes due August 2009. Because Texas Pacific Group’s affiliate did not acquire substantially all of the Company’s common stock, the basis of the Company’s assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes was not impacted by the Recapitalization.

      On May 3, 2000, the Company completed the initial public offering (“IPO”) of its common stock, selling 34.5 million shares with an issue price of $16 per share. Net proceeds from the IPO (after deducting issuance costs) were approximately $514.8 million. The net proceeds were used to redeem all outstanding preferred stock (including accrued dividends), redeem a portion of the senior subordinated notes and prepay a portion of the loans outstanding under the senior bank facilities. In connection with this debt prepayment, the Company incurred an extraordinary loss of $29.2 million ($17.5 million, or $0.11 per share, net of income taxes) — see Note 7.

Note 2: Acquisition

      On April 3, 2000, the Company acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of Cherry Semiconductor Corporation (“Cherry”) for approximately $250 million in cash, which was financed with cash on hand and borrowings of $220 million under the Company’s senior bank facilities. Cherry, which was renamed Semiconductor Components Industries of Rhode Island, Inc., designs and manufactures analog and mixed signal integrated circuits for the power management and automotive markets, and had revenues for its fiscal year ended February 29, 2000 of $129.1 million.

5


      The Cherry acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting and, as a result, the purchase price and related costs were allocated to the estimated fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the time of the acquisition based on independent appraisals and management estimates as follows (in millions):

         
Fair value of tangible net assets
  $ 76.4  
Developed technology
    59.3  
In-process research and development
    26.9  
Assembled work force
    10.0  
Excess of purchase price over net assets acquired (goodwill)
    80.6  
     
 
    $ 253.2  
     
 

      Developed technology and assembled workforce are being amortized on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives of five years while goodwill is being amortized over an estimated life of ten years.

      The fair value of the acquired in-process research and development was determined using the income approach, which discounts expected future cash flows to present value. Significant assumptions that had to be made in using this approach included revenue and operating margin projections and determination of the applicable discount rate. The fair value of the acquired in-process research and development was based on sales forecasts and cost assumptions projected to be achievable by Cherry on a standalone basis. Operating margins were based on cost of goods sold and selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues. All projected revenue and cost information was based on historical results and trends and do not include any synergies or cost savings that may result from the acquisition. The rate used to discount future projected cash flows resulting from the acquired in-process research and development was 20 percent, which was derived from a weighted average cost of capital analysis adjusted upward to reflect additional risks inherent in the development life cycle.

      At the date of acquisition, the in-process research and development had not yet reached technological feasibility and no alternative future uses had been identified. Accordingly, these costs were expensed as of the acquisition date. The expected release dates for the products incorporating the acquired technology vary, but the Company expects that such products will be completed and begin to generate cash flows in 2001. The ultimate development of these technologies remains a significant risk due to the remaining efforts required to achieve technical viability, rapidly changing customer markets, uncertain standards for new products and significant competitive threats from numerous companies. The nature of the efforts to develop the acquired technology into commercially viable products consists principally of design and development, engineering and testing activities necessary to determine that the product can meet market expectations, including functionality and technical requirements. Failure to bring these products to market in a timely manner could result in a loss of market share, or a lost opportunity to capitalize on emerging markets, and could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s business and operating results.

      The forecasts used in valuing the acquired in-process research and development were based upon assumptions the Company believes are reasonable; however, such assumptions may be incomplete or inaccurate, and unanticipated events and circumstances are likely to occur. There can be no assurance that the underlying assumptions used to estimate expected project sales or profits, or the events associated with such projects, will transpire as estimated. For these reasons, actual results may vary from the projected results.

      Cherry’s results of operations have been included in the Company’s consolidated results from the date of acquisition. The following pro forma disclosures present the Company’s results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 as if the Company had acquired Cherry as of January 1, 2000 (in millions, except per share data):

         
Revenues
  $ 1,617.2  
Net income before extraordinary loss
    67.9  
Net income
    50.4  
Diluted earnings per share before extraordinary loss
  $ 0.37  
Diluted earnings per share
  $ 0.26  

      These amounts include the results of Cherry for the first quarter of 2000 and are adjusted to reflect interest and amortization charges that would have occurred had the purchase taken place on January 1, 2000. The amounts are based upon certain assumptions and estimates, and do not reflect any benefit from any cost savings, which might be achieved from combined operations. The pro forma results are not indicative of the actual results that would have occurred had the acquisition been consummated as of January 1, 2000.

    $ 235.8     $ 206.2  
     
     
 

Note 4:  Restructuring Charges

      In March 2000, the Company recorded a $4.8 million charge ($3.0 million, or $0.02 per share, net of income taxes), to cover costs associated with a restructuring program at its manufacturing facility in Guadalajara, Mexico. The charge included $3.2 million to cover employee separation costs associated with the termination of approximately 500 employees and $1.6 million for asset impairments that were charged directly against the related assets.

      In September 2000, the Company completed a detailed evaluation of the costs to be incurred to complete the March 2000 restructuring. Based on this evaluation, the Company released $0.8 million of its remaining restructuring reserve for employee separation costs to income as a credit to restructuring charges in the consolidated statement of operations. Also in conjunction with this evaluation, the Company recorded an additional charge of $0.8 million for asset impairments that were charged directly against the related assets.

      In addition to the charge related to the March 2000 restructuring, the Company’s restructuring reserves include charges from prior restructurings, which have not yet been paid. A summary of activity in the Company’s restructuring reserves for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 is as follows (in millions):

         
Balance, December 31, 1999
  $ 9.5

    (10.4 )
Less: Reserve released to income
    (0.8 )
     
 
Balance, September 30, 2000
  $ 1.5  
     
 

Note 5:  Long-Term Debt

      In connection with the Recapitalization, the Company and SCI LLC, its primary domestic operating subsidiary (collectively, the “Issuers”), issued $400.0 million senior subordinated notes due 2009. As of September 30, 2000, $260.0 million of the senior subordinated notes were outstanding. The Company’s other domestic subsidiaries (collectively, the “Guarantor Subsidiaries”) have jointly and severally, irrevocably and unconditionally guaranteed the Issuers’ obligations under the senior subordinated notes. The Guarantor Subsidiaries include holding companies whose net assets consist primarily of investments in the Company’s foreign joint ventures in China, Malaysia and the Czech Republic and nominal equity interests in certain of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries as well as Semiconductor Components Industries of Rhode Island, Inc. The foreign joint ventures and the Company’s foreign subsidiaries (collectively, the “Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries”) themselves are not guarantors of the senior subordinated notes.

      The Company does not believe that the separate financial statements and other disclosures concerning the Guarantor Subsidiaries provide any additional information that would be material to investors in making an investment decision. Condensed consolidating financial information for the Issuers, the Guarantor Subsidiaries and the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 are as follows (in millions):

Note 6:  Earnings per Common Share

      Basic earnings per common share before extraordinary loss is computed by dividing net income before extraordinary loss less dividends accrued on the Company’s redeemable preferred stock by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per common share before extraordinary loss incorporates the incremental shares issuable upon the assumed exercise of stock options. The number of incremental shares from the assumed exercise of stock options is calculated by applying the treasury stock method. The following table presents a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of basic and diluted earnings per share calculations (in millions, except per share amounts):

Note 7:  Extraordinary Loss

      As described in Note 1, the Company utilized a portion of the net proceeds from its IPO to redeem a portion of its senior subordinated notes and prepay a portion of the loans outstanding under its senior bank facilities. In connection therewith, the Company incurred prepayment penalties and redemption premiums of $17.3 million and wrote off $11.9 million of debt issuance costs. These amounts, totaling $29.2 million ($17.5 million or $0.11 per share, net of income taxes), have been classified as an extraordinary loss in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2000.

Note 8:  Commitments and Contingencies

      The Company is currently involved in a variety of legal matters that arose in the normal course of business. Based on information currently available, management does not believe that the ultimate resolution of these matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Note 10:  Recent Accounting Pronouncements

  SFAS 133

      In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” which establishes standards for the accounting and reporting for derivative instruments, including derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and hedging activities. This statement generally requires recognition of gains and losses on hedging instruments based on changes in fair value. SFAS 133, as amended by SFAS 137, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities — Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 133”, and SFAS 138, “Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities”, is effective for the Company as of January 1, 2001. If SFAS 133 were to be adopted as of September 30, 2000, the Company would recognize a gain primarily relating to outstanding sales orders at foreign local functional currency entities that are denominated in US dollars. The amount of this gain, if any, to be recognized upon adoption of SFAS 133 in January 1, 2001 is dependent upon exchange rate fluctuations that will occur in the future. Accordingly, the Company is unable to reasonably estimate the impact of adoption of SFAS 133 on its financial statements beginning January 1, 2001.

  SAB 101

      In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101 (“SAB 101”), “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements.” SAB 101 provides guidance on the recognition, presentation, and disclosure of revenue in financial statements filed with the SEC and, as amended, will be effective for the Company in the fourth quarter of 2000. The Company does not expect the implementation of SAB 101 to have a material effect on its results of operations.

SEMICONDUCTOR COMPONENTS GROUP OF MOTOROLA, INC.

NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Note 1: Basis of Presentation

      The Semiconductor Components Group (“SCG” or “the Business”) is defined as the discrete and integrated circuits standard products of the Semiconductor Products Sector (“SPS”) of Motorola, Inc. (“Motorola”), including Power BiPolar, Rectifiers, Thyristors, Zeners, TMOS, Analog, ECL, Small Signal and Logic Products.

      The accompanying unaudited combined financial statements of the Business have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and on the basis of presentation as described in Note 1 of the audited combined financial statements included in the Form 10-K/A of ON Semiconductor Corporation and Subsidiaries filed with the SEC on August 14, 2000 and should be read in conjunction with those combined financial statements. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for financial statements. In the opinion of SCG, the interim data includes all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods.

Note 2: Related Party Transactions

      SCG manufactures products for other sectors of Motorola. Sales of these products are treated as external sales and are reflected in the accompanying unaudited interim combined statement of revenues less direct and allocated expenses before taxes with the related cost of sales. These sales totaled $10.1 million and $76.1 million for the period from July 4, 1999 through August 3, 1999 and the period from January 1, 1999 through August 3, 1999, respectively.

      SCG also manufactures products, at cost, for other SPS divisions and these other divisions also manufacture products for SCG. The gross amounts charged to/from SCG for these products are summarized as follows (in millions):

                 
July 4, 1999 January 1, 1999
through through
August 3, 1999 August 3, 1999


Manufacturing services performed by SPS divisions on behalf of SCG

Note 3:  Supplemental Disclosure of Cash Flow Information

      Motorola’s cash management system is not designed to track centralized cash and related financing transactions to the specific cash requirements of the Business. In addition, SPS’s transaction systems are not designed to track receivables and certain liabilities and cash receipts and payments on a business specific basis. Given these constraints, the following data is presented to facilitate analysis of key components of cash flow activity (in millions):

                   
July 4, 1999 January 1, 1999
through through
August 3, 1999 August 3, 1999


Operating activities:

  $ 4.9     $ 83.9  
     
     
 

The difference between cash flow from operating activities and investing activities does not necessarily represent the cash flows of the Business, or the timing of such cash flows, had it operated on a stand-alone basis.

Note 4:  Interest expense

      Motorola had net interest expense on a consolidated basis for all periods presented. This amount has been allocated to SPS and in turn to SCG in the amount of $1.0 million and $7.5 million for the period from July 4, 1999 through August 3, 1999 and the period from January 1, 1999 through August 3, 1999, respectively, primarily on the basis of net assets. Management believes this allocation is reasonable, but it is not necessarily indicative of the cost that would have been incurred if the Business had been operated on a stand-alone basis.

Item 2.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

      You should read the following discussion in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto for the period from August 4, 1999 through December 31, 1999 included in our Form 10-K/A filed with the SEC on August 14, 2000. Our historical pre-recapitalization combined financial statements present the combined revenues less direct and allocated expenses before taxes of the business of Motorola’s Semiconductor Components Group prior to our August 4, 1999 recapitalization and are not intended to be a complete presentation of the results of operations or cash flows of the Company. The results of operations before taxes are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations before taxes that would have been recorded by us on a stand-alone basis. Our historical post-recapitalization consolidated financial statements present the consolidated financial position and results of operations of the Company on a stand-alone basis. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from the results contemplated by these forward-looking statements due to certain factors, including those discussed below and elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.

      ON Semiconductor designs and manufactures analog power management and broadband integrated circuits as well as other semiconductor components. The company plans to introduce over 400 new products in 2000, anticipating the need for faster data flow for computing on the Internet and more efficient use of power in wireless, consumer, computing and automotive markets. ON Semiconductor serves its customers through a global supply chain of factories located in Arizona (headquarters), Rhode Island, China, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Japan, Malaysia, Mexico and the Philippines as well as through a global network of distributors and contract manufacturers.

      In April 2000, we acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of Cherry Semiconductor Corporation (“Cherry”) for approximately $250 million in cash, which was financed with cash on hand and borrowings of $220 million under our senior bank facilities. Cherry, which was renamed Semiconductor Components Industries of Rhode Island, Inc., designs and manufactures analog and mixed signal integrated circuits for the power management and automotive markets, and had revenues for its fiscal year ended February 29, 2000 of $129.1 million See discussion in Note 2 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for the period from January 1, 2000 to September 30, 2000 included in this Form 10-Q.

      The Cherry acquisition was accounted for using the purchase method of accounting and, as a result, the purchase price plus related costs was allocated to the estimated fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the time of the acquisition based on independent appraisals and management estimates as follows (in millions):

         
Fair value of tangible net assets
  $ 76.4  
Developed technology
    59.3  
In-process research and development
    26.9  
Assembled work force
    10.0  
Excess of purchase price over net assets acquired (goodwill)
    80.6  
     
 
    $ 253.2  
     
 

      In May 2000, we completed our initial public offering of common stock, selling 34.5 million shares with an issue price of $16 per share. Net proceeds from this offering (after deducting issuance costs) were approximately $514.8 million. The net proceeds were used to redeem all outstanding preferred stock (including accrued dividends), redeem a portion of the senior subordinated notes and prepay a portion of the loans outstanding under the senior bank facilities. In connection with this debt prepayment, we incurred an extraordinary loss of $29.2 million ($17.5 million, or $0.11 per share, net of income taxes) related to prepayment penalties and redemption premiums as well as the write-off of capitalized debt issuance costs.

Results of Operations

      Earnings per common share. Our net income was $0.17 per share on a diluted basis for the quarter ended September 30, 2000. For the nine months ended September 30, 2000, our net income was $0.28 per share on a diluted basis. Excluding the amortization of goodwill and other intangibles resulting from the Cherry acquisition, the write-off of acquired in-process research and development, the first quarter restructuring charge relating to the Guadalajara, Mexico manufacturing facility, and the extraordinary loss on debt prepayment, all on an after-tax basis, our net income per common share was $0.19 and $0.54 on a diluted basis for the quarter and the nine months ended September 30, 2000, respectively, as follows:

      Total revenues. Total revenues increased $93.3 million, or 20.7%, to $543.2 million in the third quarter of 2000 from $449.9 million in the third quarter of 1999, due to an increase in net product revenues and the inclusion of foundry revenues as a component of total revenues after our Recapitalization.

15


      Net product revenues. Net product revenues increased $117.1 million, or 27.8%, to $539.0 million in the third quarter of 2000 from $421.9 million in the third quarter of 1999.

      Net revenues for standard analog products, which accounted for 27.9% of net product revenues in the third quarter of 2000, increased 79.3% compared to the third quarter of 1999 as a result of the Cherry acquisition, increased demand in the power management market and our focus on expanding the sales of this product line. Net revenues for logic products, which accounted for 23.7% of net product revenues in the third quarter of 2000, increased 25.0% compared to the third quarter of 1999 due to a strong increase in demand for emitter-coupled logic (“ECL”) products and, to a lesser extent, an increase in demand for standard logic products. Net revenues for discrete products, which accounted for 48.4% of net product revenues in the third quarter of 2000, increased 10.8% compared to the third quarter of 1999 mainly fueled by increased demand in micropackaged products within the small signal and rectifier product families. Other product families, including zeners, thyristors, and TMOS, also experienced revenue growth due to increases in demand.

      Approximately 45%, 36% and 19% of our net product revenues in the third quarter of 2000 were derived from the Americas, Asia/ Pacific and Europe (including the Middle East), respectively, compared to 47%, 35% and 18%, respectively, in the third quarter of 1999.

      Foundry revenues. Foundry revenues decreased $23.8 million, or 85.0%, to $4.2 million in the third quarter of 2000 from $28.0 million in the third quarter of 1999. These foundry revenues are a result of agreements made with Motorola during our separation. We expect that these revenues will continue to decline in the future as the separation with Motorola progresses. Motorola continues to be one of our largest original equipment manufacturer (OEM) customers, and those product revenues are distinctly different from the aforementioned foundry revenues. Prior to our Recapitalization, Motorola recorded foundry revenues as an offset to cost of sales at cost.

      Cost of sales. Cost of sales increased $29.9 million, or 9.4%, to $349.2 million in the third quarter of 2000 from $319.3 million in the third quarter of 1999, primarily as a result of increased sales volume.

      Gross profit. Gross profit (computed as total revenues less cost of sales) increased $63.4 million, or 48.5%, to $194.0 million in the third quarter of 2000 from $130.6 million in the third quarter of 1999. As a percentage of total revenues, gross margin improved to 35.7% (36.2% for product gross margin) in the third quarter of 2000 from 29.0% in the third quarter of 1999. The improvement in gross profit resulted mainly from reductions in costs from our restructuring programs, increased sales volume and a shift in product mix toward higher margin products, including ECL and analog families.

     Operating expenses

      Research and development. Research and development costs increased $8.5 million, or 72.0%, to $20.3 million in the third quarter of 2000 from $11.8 million in the third quarter of 1999, primarily as a result of the Cherry acquisition and increased investments in research and development, offset by the elimination of corporate allocations from Motorola incurred in 1999. As a percentage of net product revenues, research and development costs increased to 3.8% in the third quarter of 2000 from 2.8% in the third quarter of 1999. As of September 30, 2000, we have introduced 106 new products in the third quarter of 2000. The main emphasis of our new product development is in the high growth market applications of power management and broadband solutions with eighty percent of our overall research and development investment targeted in these areas. Our long-term target for research and development costs is 5-6% of revenues.

      Selling and marketing. Selling and marketing expenses increased by $13.6 million, or 97.8%, to $27.5 million in the third quarter of 2000 from $13.9 million in the third quarter of 1999. The increase in selling and marketing expenses was attributable to the Cherry acquisition and increased branding and marketing costs associated with establishing the ON Semiconductor™ trade name. As a percentage of net product revenues, these costs increased to 5.1% in the third quarter of 2000 from 3.3% in the third quarter of 1999.

      General and administrative. General and administrative expenses increased by $19.9 million, or 44.7% to $64.4 million in the third quarter of 2000 from $44.5 million in the third quarter of 1999, as a result of the Cherry acquisition, costs incurred to establish corporate functions, costs resulting from our separation from Motorola, higher performance bonuses in the third quarter of 2000 and investments in tax planning. As a percentage of net product revenues, these costs increased to 11.9% in the third quarter of 2000 from 9.0% in the third quarter of 1999.

      Amortization of goodwill and other intangibles. Amortization of goodwill and other intangibles increased to $5.4 million in the third quarter of 2000 from zero in the third quarter of 1999. This increase was due to the intangible assets that were acquired from Cherry, including amounts related to developed technology, assembled workforce and goodwill.

      Operating income. Operating income increased $16.0 million, or 26.5%, to $76.4 million in the third quarter of 2000 from $60.4 million in the third quarter of 1999. This increase was due to increased net product revenues, an improved product mix towards higher-margin products and cost reductions from our prior period restructuring programs, offset by increased costs associated with our separation from Motorola and the amortization of goodwill and other intangibles. Cost

16


reductions resulting from our prior period restructuring programs relate to the consolidation of manufacturing operations and the relocation or outsourcing of related operations to take advantage of lower-cost labor markets. We expect that the cost reduction program that we established this year will result in savings of approximately $80 million by year-end with additional benefits to occur in 2001.

      Interest expense. Interest expense increased $7.9 million, or 32.9% to $31.9 million in the third quarter of 2000 from $24.0 million in the third quarter of 1999, due to borrowings under our senior bank facilities and the issuance of our senior subordinated notes and our junior subordinated note in order to finance our Recapitalization. A portion of the interest expense for the third quarter of 1999 was an allocation we received from Motorola.

      Equity in earnings of joint ventures. Equity in earnings from joint ventures increased $1.1 million to $2.1 million in the third quarter of 2000 from $1.0 million in the third quarter of 1999, due primarily to increased capacity and manufacturing efficiencies in our Chinese joint venture and improved capacity utilization in both our Chinese and Malaysian joint ventures.

      Minority interests. Minority interests represent the portion of net income of two Czech joint ventures attributable to the minority owners of each joint venture. We consolidate these joint ventures in our financial statements. Minority interests increased to $0.7 million in the third quarter of 2000 from $0.3 million in the third quarter of 1999.

      Provision for income taxes. Provision for income taxes increased $1.1 million, or 7.4% to $16.0 million in the third quarter of 2000 from $14.9 million in the third quarter of 1999. A provision for taxes was not made for periods prior to our Recapitalization. Our effective tax rate decreased in the third quarter of 2000 as compared to the third quarter of 1999 primarily due to increased research and foreign tax credits.

      Total revenues. Total revenues increased $356.1 million, or 29.1%, to $1,580.5 million in the first nine months of 2000 from $1,224.4 million in the first nine months of 1999, due to an increase in net product revenues and the inclusion of foundry revenues as a component of total revenues after our Recapitalization.

      Net product revenues. Net product revenues increased $325.1 million, or 27.2%, to $1,521.5 million in the first nine months of 2000 from $1,196.4 million in the first nine months of 1999.

      Net revenues for standard analog products, which accounted for 25.4% of net product revenues in the first nine months of 2000, increased 67.0% compared to the first nine months of 1999 as a result of the Cherry acquisition, increased demand in the power management market and our focus on expanding the sales of this product line. Net revenues for logic products, which accounted for 24.5% of net product revenues in the first nine months of 2000, increased 45.0% compared to the first nine months of 1999 due to increased demand for ECL products, which was partially offset by reduced emphasis on older standard logic product families and the discontinuation of a related product line. Net revenues for discrete products, which accounted for 50.1% of net product revenues in the first nine months of 2000, increased 14.1% compared to the first nine months of 1999 fueled by increased demand in most of our product families.

      Approximately 46%, 33% and 21% of our net product revenues in the first nine months of 2000 were derived from the Americas, Asia/ Pacific and Europe (including the Middle East), respectively, which is consistent with the net product revenues generated by region in the first nine months of 1999.

      Foundry revenues. Foundry revenues increased $31.0 million, or 110.7%, to $59.0 million in the first nine months of 2000 from $28.0 million in the first nine months of 1999. These foundry revenues are a result of agreements made with Motorola during our separation. We expect that these revenues will continue to decline in the future as the separation with Motorola progresses. Motorola continues to be one of our largest original equipment manufacturer (OEM) customers, and those product revenues are distinctly different from the aforementioned foundry revenues. Prior to our recapitalization, Motorola recorded foundry revenues as an offset to cost of sales at cost.

      Cost of sales. Cost of sales increased $168.4 million, or 19.5%, to $1,030.3 million in the first nine months of 2000 from $861.9 million in the first nine months of 1999, primarily as a result of increased sales volume and the inclusion of cost of foundry sales as a component of cost of sales after our recapitalization.

      Gross profit. Gross profit (computed as total revenues less cost of sales) increased $187.7 million, or 51.8%, to $550.2 million in the first nine months of 2000 from $362.5 million in the first nine months of 1999. As a percentage of total revenues, gross margin improved to 34.8% in the first nine months of 2000 from 29.6% in the first nine months of 1999. The improvement in gross profit resulted mainly from reductions in costs from our restructuring programs, increased sales volume and a shift in product mix toward higher margin products, including ECL and analog families.

     Operating expenses

      Research and development. Research and development costs increased $7.4 million, or 18.0%, to $48.6 million in the first nine months of 2000 from $41.2 million in the first nine months of 1999. As a percentage of net product revenues, research and development costs decreased to 3.2% in the first nine months of 2000 from 3.4% in the first nine months of 1999. However, this decline is due to the discontinuance of general research and development expense allocations we received from Motorola prior to our Recapitalization. As of September 30, 2000, we have introduced 260 new products since the beginning of the year, and we anticipate total new product introductions for 2000 in excess of 400, as compared to 206 product introductions in 1999. The main emphasis of the Company’s new product development is in the high growth market applications of power management and broadband solutions with eighty percent of our overall research and development investment targeted in these areas. Our long-term target for research and development costs is 5-6% of revenues.

      Selling and marketing. Selling and marketing expenses increased by $25.5 million, or 53.3%, to $73.3 million in 2000 from $47.8 million in the first nine months of 1999. The increase in selling and marketing expenses was attributable to the Cherry acquisition and increased branding and marketing costs associated with establishing the ON Semiconductor(TM) trade name. As a percentage of net product revenues, these costs increased to 4.8% in the first nine months of 2000 from 4.0% in the first nine months of 1999.

18


      General and administrative. General and administrative expenses increased by $53.6 million, or 44.2% to $175.0 million in the first nine months of 2000 from $121.4 million in the first nine months of 1999, as a result of the Cherry acquisition, costs incurred to establish corporate functions and other costs resulting from our separation from Motorola as well as higher performance bonuses in the first nine months of 2000 and investments in tax planning. As a percentage of net product revenues, these costs increased to 11.5% in the first nine months of 2000 from 9.6% in the first nine months of 1999.

      Write-off of acquired in-process research and development. In the first nine months of 2000, we incurred a $26.9 million charge for the write-off of acquired in-process research and development resulting from the Cherry acquisition. No such charges were incurred in the first nine months of 1999.

      Amortization of goodwill and other intangibles. Amortization of goodwill and other intangibles increased to $10.9 million in the first nine months of 2000 from zero in the first nine months of 1999. This increase was due to the intangible assets that were acquired from Cherry, including amounts related to developed technology, assembled workforce and goodwill.

      Restructuring charges. In March 2000, we recorded a $4.8 million charge ($3.0 million or $0.02 per share, net of income taxes), to cover costs associated with a restructuring program at our manufacturing facility in Guadalajara, Mexico. The charge included $3.2 million to cover employee separation costs associated with the termination of approximately 500 employees and $1.6 million for equipment write-downs that were charged directly against the related assets.

      In September 2000, the Company completed a detailed evaluation of the costs to be incurred to complete the March 2000 restructuring. Based on this evaluation, the Company released $0.8 million of its remaining restructuring reserve for employee separation costs to income as a credit to restructuring charges in the consolidated statement of operations. Also in conjunction with this evaluation, the Company recorded an additional charge of $0.8 million for asset impairments that were charged directly against the related assets.

      In addition to the charge related to the March 2000 restructuring, our restructuring reserves also include charges from prior restructurings, which have not yet been paid. A summary of activity in our restructuring reserves during the first nine months of 2000 is as follows (in millions):

      Operating income. Operating income increased by $58.6 million, or 38.5%, to $210.7 million in the first nine months of 2000 from $152.1 million in the first nine months of 1999. This increase was due to increased net product sales, an improved product mix towards higher-margin products and cost reductions from our restructuring programs, offset by charges associated with the Guadalajara restructuring, additional costs incurred from our separation from Motorola, the write-off of in-process research and development and the amortization of goodwill and other intangibles. Cost reductions resulting from our restructuring programs relate to the consolidation of manufacturing operations and the relocation or outsourcing of related operations to take advantage of lower-cost labor markets. We expect that the cost reduction program that we established this year will result in savings of approximately $80 million by year-end with additional benefits to occur in 2001.

      Interest expense. Interest expense increased $68.7 million, to $100.4 million in the first nine months of 2000 from $31.7 million in the first nine months of 1999, due to borrowings under our senior bank facilities and the issuance of our senior subordinated notes and our junior subordinated note in order to finance our Recapitalization. The $31.7 million interest expense for the first nine months of 1999 includes allocations that we received from Motorola.

      Equity in earnings of joint ventures. Equity in earnings from joint ventures increased $1.2 million, to $4.3 million in the first nine months of 2000 from $3.1 million in the first nine months of 1999, due primarily to increased capacity and manufacturing efficiencies in our Chinese joint venture and improved capacity utilization in both our Chinese and Malaysian joint ventures.

19


      Minority interests. Minority interests represent the portion of net income of two Czech joint ventures attributable to the minority owners of each joint venture. We consolidate these joint ventures in our financial statements. Minority interests increased to $1.9 million in the first nine months of 2000 from $1.3 million in the first nine months of 1999.

      Provision for income taxes. Provision for income taxes increased $26.9 million, or 180.5% to $41.8 million in the first nine months of 2000 from $14.9 million in the first nine months of 1999. No provision for taxes was made for periods prior to our Recapitalization. Our effective tax rate decreased in the first nine months of 2000 as compared to the first nine months of 1999 primarily due to increased research and foreign tax credits.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

      Prior to our Recapitalization, Motorola performed cash management on a centralized basis, and its Semiconductor Products Sector processed receivables and payables, payroll and other activities for the Semiconductor Components Group. Most of these systems were not designed to track receivables, liabilities, cash receipts and payments on a division-specific basis. Accordingly, it is not practical to determine assets and liabilities associated with the Semiconductor Components Group prior to our Recapitalization.

      For the first nine months of 2000, net cash provided by operating activities was $223.5 million. Cash generated from operating activities was due primarily to net income of $53.4 million, adjusted for non-cash charges, including depreciation and amortization of $117.3 million, the write-off of acquired in-process research and development costs of $26.9 million and non-operating charges relating to the extraordinary loss on debt prepayment of $29.2 million. Cash generated from operating activities was also affected by changes in assets and liabilities including an increase in accounts payable of $40.5 million and an increase in accrued expenses of $39.3 million, offset by an increase in receivables of $25.7 million, an increase in other assets of $18.4 million and an increase in inventories of $10.8 million as well as a decrease in income taxes payable of $17.6 million and a decrease in accrued interest of $19.9 million.

      Net cash used in investing activities was $386.8 million for the first nine months of 2000 due to a net cash outflow of $253.2 million resulting from the Cherry acquisition, capital expenditures of $126.0 million and loans to and investments in unconsolidated entities totaling $25.5 million, offset by proceeds from sales of property, plant and equipment of $17.9 million. Capital expenditures in 2000 are expected to be approximately $190 million and will be used primarily to improve our assembly and test facilities in low-cost regions and for new information technology systems.

      Net cash provided by financing activities was $195.9 million for the first nine months of 2000. Cash inflows from financing activities consisted of borrowings from senior credit facilities used to finance the Cherry acquisition, and proceeds from our initial public offering. In May 2000, we sold 34.5 million shares with an issue price of $16 per share. Net proceeds from this offering (after deducting issuance costs) were approximately $514.8 million. Cash outflows from financing activities included the redemption of our outstanding preferred stock of $228.4 million (including accrued dividends), the redemption of a portion of our senior subordinated notes of $156.8 million (including prepayment penalties) and the prepayment of a portion of the loans outstanding under our senior bank facilities totaling $131.5 million (including prepayment penalties).

      As of September 30, 2000, we had $869.3 million of indebtedness outstanding under our senior bank facilities and stockholders’ equity of $314.9 million. As of September 30, 2000, $136.4 million of our $150 million revolving facility was available, reflecting outstanding letters of credit of $13.6 million. In addition, the credit agreement relating to our senior bank facilities, the indenture relating to our senior subordinated notes and the terms of our junior subordinated note allow us to incur further additional indebtedness. We are required to begin making principal payments on our senior bank facilities in 2001. Our ability to make payments on and to refinance our indebtedness, including our senior bank facilities, senior subordinated notes and junior subordinated note, and to fund working capital, capital expenditures, research and development efforts and strategic acquisitions will depend on our ability to generate cash in the future, which is subject to general economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other factors that are beyond our control. Further, the credit agreement relating to our senior bank facilities, the indenture relating to our senior subordinated notes and the terms of our junior subordinated note currently do, and other debt instruments we enter into in the future may, impose various restrictions and covenants that could limit our ability to respond to market conditions, to provide for unanticipated capital investments or to take advantage of business opportunities.

      Our primary future cash needs, both in the short term and in the long term, will continue to be for capital expenditures, debt service, working capital and potential business acquisitions. We believe that cash flows from operations will be sufficient to enable us to service our indebtedness and to fund our other liquidity needs (other than potential business acquisitions) for the next 12 months. As part of our business strategy, we continuously review acquisition opportunities and proposals. We expect to finance any future acquisitions with borrowings under our revolving credit facility and additional equity and debt financing, to the extent available on attractive terms.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

  SFAS 133

      In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” which establishes standards for the accounting and reporting for derivative instruments, including derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and hedging activities. This statement generally requires recognition of gains and losses on hedging instruments based on changes in fair value. SFAS 133, as amended by SFAS 137, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities — Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 133”, and SFAS 138, “Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging Activities”, is effective for us as of January 1, 2001. If SFAS 133 were to be adopted as of September 30, 2000, we would recognize a gain primarily relating to outstanding sales orders at foreign local functional currency entities that are denominated in US dollars. The amount of this gain, if any, to be recognized upon adoption of SFAS 133 in January 1, 2001 is dependent upon exchange rate fluctuations that will occur in the future. Accordingly, we are unable to reasonably estimate the impact of adoption of SFAS 133 on our financial statements beginning January 1, 2001.

  SAB 101

      In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101 (“SAB 101”), “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements.” SAB 101 provides guidance on the recognition, presentation, and disclosure of revenue in financial statements filed with the SEC and, as amended, will be effective for the Company in the fourth quarter of 2000. We do not expect the implementation of SAB 101 to have a material affect on our results of operations.

Business Risks and Forward-Looking Statements

      This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes “forward-looking statements” as that term is defined in Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Forward-looking statements are often characterized by the use of words such as “believes,” “estimates,” “expects,” “projects,” “may,” “will,” “intends,” “plans,” or “anticipates,” or by discussions of strategy, plans or intentions. All forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report are made based on management’s current expectations and estimates, which involve risks, uncertainties and other factor that could cause results to differ materially from those expressed in forward-looking statements. Among these factors are changes in overall economic conditions, changes in demand for our products, changes in inventories at our customers and distributors, technological and product development risks, availability of manufacturing capacity, availability of raw materials, competitors’ actions, loss of key customers, order cancellations or reduced bookings, changes in manufacturing yields, litigation, risks associated with acquisitions, changes in management, and risks involving environmental or other governmental regulations. Additional factors that could affect the Company’s future operating results are described under “Risk Factors” in the Registration Statement on Form S-1 and the Prospectus dated April 27, 2000 relating to our initial public offering. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. We assume no obligation to update such information.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

      Although a substantial portion of our transactions are denominated in U.S. dollars, we are exposed to foreign currency exchange rate risk due to our operations outside of the U.S. Our strategy is to utilize forward currency exchange contracts to hedge these foreign currency exposures, with the intent of offsetting gains and losses that occur on the underlying exposures with losses and gains on the forward currency exchange contracts. Our exchange rate risk management strategy reduces, but does not eliminate, the short-term impact of foreign currency exchange rate movements. For example, changes in exchange rates may affect the foreign currency sales price of our products and can lead to increases or decreases in sales volume to the extent that the sales price of comparable products of our competitors are less or more than the sales price of our products.

      We do not have any exposure to rate changes for our senior subordinated notes or our junior subordinated note. However, we do have interest rate exposure with respect to the $869.3 million outstanding at September 30, 2000 under our senior bank facilities due to their variable pricing. As of September 30, 2000, we had two interest rate swaps, which became effective in February 2000, to cover the exposure on $255.0 million of the senior bank facilities.
