Item 7: Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of OperationThe following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this Form 10-K. This discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ from those anticipated in those forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors, including those set forth in factors affecting future operating results and elsewhere in this form 10-K. OverviewWe are a leading designer, manufacturer and marketer of high performance analog integrated circuits. Through our design expertise, process technology expertise and specialized application knowledge, we have developed and sell approximately 150 innovative products, including amplifiers, drivers, faders, transceivers and multiplexers, to a large and diverse group of customers worldwide. We target four high growth commercial markets: video, optical storage, communications and power management. We were incorporated in California in July 1983 as Elantec, Inc. In September 1995, we reincorporated in Delaware as Elantec Semiconductor, Inc., and in October 1995, we completed our initial public offering. We introduced our first products in fiscal 1984, and, during the period from fiscal 1984 to fiscal 1989, military and commercial hybrid product sales represented the majority of our net revenues. Beginning in fiscal 1989, we changed our strategy to focus on high growth commercial markets. We announced the discontinuance of our military and commercial hybrid products in July 1997, and shipments of these products ended in September 1999. Beginning in fiscal 1999, we narrowed our product focus, concentrating on our current markets where we could exploit our design and process technology expertise. We opened a design center in the United Kingdom in the third quarter of fiscal 2000. In the first quarter of fiscal 1999, we took an unusual charge of $13.0 million under a plan to restructure our manufacturing operations by moving towards a primarily outsourced model. We restructured our operations in response to a shift in the mix of products fabricated internally compared to products fabricated by outside foundries, which caused significant over-capacity in our internal 4-inch fabrication facility. Our net revenues are derived from the sale of analog integrated circuits. We have developed a broad range of high performance application specific standard products, or ASSPs, and standard products for our four target markets. In fiscal 2000, video represented 41%, optical storage represented 42%, communications represented 11%, and power management and others represented 6% of net revenues. We sell our products both domestically and internationally to a large and diverse group of original equipment manufacturers, or OEMs, through a combination of direct sales offices, independent sales representatives and distributors. In fiscal 2000, sales to Microtek International in Japan and Samsung Electronics in Korea accounted for 32% and 12%, respectively of our net revenues. Microtek is a distributor who sells to a diverse base of OEMs, while Samsung is one of our direct customers. |
We have focused our sales and marketing efforts in Asia, North America and Europe. During the year ended September 30, 2000 and for fiscal 1999 and fiscal 1998, approximately 75%, 57% and 53%,respectively, of our net revenues were derived from customers outside of North America. Our customers are both distributors and OEMs. The majority of our international net revenues are derived from sales through our distributors. We work with 11 distributors in Asia and nine distributors covering Europe, Africa, South America and Australia, each selling to OEMs within their own territory. We also work with four distributors and 18 independent sales representatives in North America. While we are continuing to expand our sales organizations worldwide, we expect that the majority of our net revenues will continue to be derived from Asia in the foreseeable future. Some of our net revenues from sales in Japan are denominated in Japanese Yen while the remaining net revenues from sales worldwide are denominated in United States Dollars. We recognize revenue at the time of shipment to direct customers, at the time of shipment to foreign distributors, and at the time domestic distributors sell our products to their customers. Allowances are provided for estimated returns at the time of shipment. Our domestic distributors have rights of return and price protection privileges on unsold merchandise. Net revenues are stated net of estimated discounts and allowances. We work with our customers to achieve design wins whereby our products will be incorporated into our customers product. Our customers then complete the design, testing and evaluation of their products and begin the marketing process. Several months may elapse between our sales efforts and our realization of revenues, if any, from volume purchases of our products. The duration of the actual lapse depends upon the product type and market segment. Our customers are not obligated by long-term contracts to purchase our products and can generally cancel or reschedule orders on short notice. We manufacture semiconductor wafers using our proprietary dielectric isolation and silicon-on-insulator technologies. In addition, we utilize a limited number of third party foundries for the manufacture of our junction isolation complementary bipolar and complementary metal-oxide semiconductor, or CMOS, wafers. We use third party subcontractors for assembly and packaging services. We place purchase orders for specific quantities of wafers, and assembly and packaging services. We test all wafers produced by us and our third party foundries. In addition, we perform final testing on all packaged units. Accordingly, a significant portion of our cost of revenues consists of payments to our manufacturing subcontractors. Costs of revenues also encompass our internal manufacturing and operations functions and a portion of our information systems and facilities costs. Research and development expenses consist primarily of salaries and related personnel costs, fees paid to consultants and outside service providers, prototype costs related to the fabrication of our integrated circuits, and depreciation associated with development tools. We expense our research and development costs as they are incurred. Several components of our research and development initiatives require significant expenditures, such as prototype expenses, the timing of which can cause significant quarterly variability in our expenses. Because our research and development is critical to our future success, we expect to continue to increase our research and development expenditures. Marketing, sales, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and commissions and related expenses for executives, finance, accounting, information services, human resources, recruiting, professional fees and other corporate expenses, and costs associated with promotional and other marketing activities. We expect to continue to expand our direct and indirect sales operations in an attempt to secure more design wins and increase product orders. We expect these expenses will increase over the next year as we hire additional sales and marketing personnel, initiate additional marketing programs to support our products, establish new sales offices, amortize deferred compensation associated with the hiring of our new chief executive officer, add personnel and incur additional costs related to the continued growth of our business. We will continue to expand our use of independent sales representatives. In addition, the complexity of integrating our products within our customers systems requires highly trained field application engineers, customer service and support personnel. We plan to continue to expand our field application engineering and our customer service and support organization. Results of OperationsThe following table sets forth, as a percentage of net revenues, certain consolidated statement of operations data for the periods indicated. |

While we are working on programs to continue to improve manufacturing efficiencies, we may encounter difficulties due to delays with technology introduction, changes in product mix, unfavorable manufacturing yields or other manufacturing difficulties in the future. Gross margin may continue to fluctuate from quarter to quarter. Gross margin was $23.9 million or 47.1% of net revenues in fiscal 1999. The increase in gross margin as a percentage of net revenues as compared to 46.3% in fiscal 1998 was due primarily to the absorption of fixed costs over a larger revenue base and improved manufacturing yields and pricing at third party foundries. This increase was partially offset by higher unfavorable overhead variances relating to internal production and increased provisions for excess and obsolete inventory of approximately $1.0 million in the first quarter of fiscal 1999 as product mix shifted towards products manufactured by third party foundries. The improvement in gross margin in fiscal 1999 compared to fiscal 1998 also resulted from our change in strategy, discussed above. Research and Development Expenses. Research and development expenses increased by $7.1 million or 91.0% for fiscal 2000 as compared to fiscal 1999. In fiscal 2000, research and development expenses were 14.7% of net revenue. The increase in research and development expenses in fiscal 2000 as compared to fiscal 1999 was due primarily to an increase in staffing and related compensation of $3.4 million, particularly design engineering personnel, fees paid to consultants and outside service providers of $1.4 million and prototype costs and depreciation associated with development tools of $2.3 million. During the third quarter of fiscal 2000, we also opened a design center in the United Kingdom. Research and development expenses were $7.8 million or 15.4% of net revenues in fiscal 1999 and $7.2 million or 15.6% of net revenues in fiscal 1998. The increase in research and development expenses in fiscal 1999 as compared to 1998 was due primarily to an increase in staffing and related compensation of $0.3 million, particularly design engineering personnel, and higher spending of $0.3 million on new product designs. Marketing, Sales, General and Administrative Expenses. Marketing, sales, general and administrative expenses increased by $5.5 million or 50.7% for fiscal 2000 as compared to fiscal 1999. In fiscal 2000, marketing, sales, general and administrative expenses were 16.1% of net revenue. The increase in these expenses in fiscal 2000 as compared to fiscal 1999 was due primarily to an increase in staffing and related compensation of $3.1 million, particularly sales and marketing personnel, fees paid to consultants of $0.2 million and higher commissions paid to outside manufacturers representatives and other selling expenses of $2.2 million due to the increase in net revenues. Marketing, sales, general and administrative expenses were $10.8 million or 21.4% of net revenues in fiscal 1999 and $9.9 million or 21.4% of net revenues in fiscal 1998. The increase in these expenses in fiscal 1999 over fiscal 1998 was due primarily to an increase in staffing and related compensation of $0.5 million and higher outside services costs of $0.4 million. As a percentage of net sales, marketing, sales, general and administrative expenses remained flat in fiscal 1999 as such costs increased at the same rate as net revenue growth. Unusual Charges. Our unusual charges, as discussed in gross margin for fiscal 2000 and fiscal 1999, consisted primarily of a write-down of certain equipment, a write-down of inventory, severance costs and a write-down of previously capitalized patent costs (See Note 11 of notes to consolidated financial statements). These actions resulted in pretax charges of $12.0 million to operating expenses and $1.0 million to cost of goods sold. Approximately $0.3 million was utilized in fiscal 2000 and $12.7 million was utilized in fiscal 1999. Interest and Other Income, Net. Interest and other income, net was $1.6 million in fiscal 2000, an increase of $1.1 million over fiscal 1999. The increase in interest and other income was due primarily to higher levels of cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments and gains from the sale of foreign exchange forward contracts. Interest and other income, net was $0.5 million in fiscal 1999 and $0.7 million in fiscal 1998. Interest income for fiscal 1999 decreased from fiscal 1998 due to a lower rate of return on cash equivalents and short-term investments. Provision for (Benefit From) Taxes on Income. Our effective tax rate for fiscal 2000 was 37.0% compared to (41.7%) for the comparable prior year period. The fiscal 1999 provision for taxes on income reflected the benefit from the unusual charges we recorded in the first quarter of fiscal 1999. In addition, we reversed the remaining valuation allowance of $0.5 million due to the conclusion that realization of the remaining deferred tax assets subject to the valuation allowance is more likely than not. See Note 7 of notes to consolidated financial statements. Results for the fourth fiscal quarter of 1998 included a $3.1 million favorable tax adjustment resulting primarily from the reversal of our valuation allowance for certain deferred tax assets at September 30, 1998. |
- | shifts in demand for, and average selling prices of, our products; |
- | the reduction, rescheduling or cancellation of orders by our customers; |
- | the timing and success of product introductions and new technologies by our competitors and us; |

- | the timing of our investments in research and development; |
- | the timing and provision of pricing protections and returns from our customers; |

Although our net revenues have increased in recent quarters, fluctuations in our net revenues and operating results due to these factors could prevent us from sustaining these growth rates. As a result, we believe that period-to-period comparisons of our net revenues and operating results are not necessarily meaningful and, accordingly, that these comparisons should not be relied upon as indications of future performance. WE DEPEND UPON THE CONTINUED DEMAND FOR OUR PRODUCTS IN THE VIDEO AND OPTICAL STORAGE MARKETS FOR A SIGNIFICANT PORTION OF OUR NET REVENUES. We have derived, and expect to continue to derive, a significant portion of our net revenues from products that we sell in the video and optical storage markets. Therefore, our success depends in part on the continued acceptance of our products within these markets and our ability to continue to develop and introduce new products on a timely basis for these markets. In addition, although the video and optical storage markets have grown rapidly in the last few years, we cannot be certain that these markets will continue to grow or that a significant slowdown in these markets will not occur. Any downturn in these markets could harm our business and operating results. THE FAILURE TO MANAGE AND SUSTAIN OUR GROWTH MAY HARM OUR BUSINESS. Our ability to continue to grow successfully requires an effective planning and management process. Since September 30, 1999, we increased our headcount substantially, from 175 employees to 337 employees as of September 30, 2000. Our growth has placed, and the recruitment and integration of additional employees will continue to place, a significant strain on our infrastructure, internal systems and other resources. To manage our growth effectively, we must continue to improve and expand our operational, financial and management information systems in a timely and efficient manner and invest the necessary capital. We cannot assure you that those resources will be available when we need them or that we will have sufficient capital to invest when required. If we are unable to manage and sustain our growth, our operating results may be harmed. DIFFICULTIES IN ESTIMATING THE AMOUNT AND TIMING OF SALES TO OUR CUSTOMERS COULD HARM OUR OPERATING RESULTS. It is difficult for us to forecast accurately the timing and amount of sales to our customers, which include distributors and original equipment manufacturers, or OEMs. Our customers generally take a long time to evaluate our products and technologies before committing to design our products into their systems. In addition, some of the OEMs who purchase products from us or our distributors require a set of related products from multiple manufacturers to be delivered to them together for a complete bill of materials. Delays in delivery by other vendors could result in delayed or cancelled sales of our products. Moreover, our business is characterized by short-term orders and shipment schedules, and customer orders typically can be canceled or rescheduled on short notice to us and without significant penalty. We do not have substantial noncancellable backlog and often we are forced to obtain inventory and materials from our manufacturing subcontractors in advance of anticipated customer demand. Because we incur expenses, many of which are fixed, based in part on our forecasts of future product sales, our operating results could be harmed if sales levels are below our expectations. |
OUR NET REVENUES MAY DECREASE IF WE LOSE ANY OF OUR SIGNIFICANT CUSTOMERS, THEREBY HARMING OUR OPERATING RESULTS. A relatively small number of customers account for a significant portion of our net revenues in any particular period. In fiscal 2000, Microtek International, Inc. accounted for 32% of our net revenues and Samsung accounted for 12%. In fiscal 1999, Microtek accounted for 30% of our net revenues and Insight (a domestic distributor) accounted for 10%. The loss of any significant customer coupled with our inability to obtain orders from new customers to compensate for such loss could cause our net revenues to decline, thereby harming our operating results. We have no long-term purchase commitments with these or any of our other important customers. These customers, therefore, could cease purchasing our products with short notice to us and without significant penalty. In addition, Microtek and Insight are distributors of our products to various OEMs, any of whom could choose to reduce or eliminate orders that would reduce our distributors orders for our products. Because we anticipate that sales of our products to a relatively small number of customers will continue to account for a significant portion of our net revenues, the following may reduce our operating results: |
- | reduction, delay or cancellation of orders from one or more of our significant distributors or OEMs; |
- | development by one or more of our significant customers of other sources of supply; |
- | selection by one or more of our significant OEMs of devices manufactured by one or more of our - competitors for inclusion in future product generations; |
- | sales of competing products by our distributors; or |
- | failure of one of our significant customers to make timely payment of our invoices. |
WE MUST ACHIEVE NEW DESIGN WINS, AND THESE DESIGN WINS MUST TRANSLATE INTO CUSTOMER PURCHASES. Our success depends in part upon achieving design wins for our products with current and future customers. Design wins are indications by existing and potential customers that they intend to incorporate our products into their new product designs. To achieve design wins, we must continually increase the performance levels of our products, keep pace with evolving industry standards and introduce new products in a timely manner. If we fail to achieve design wins, we may lose potential sales opportunities. Design wins also do not necessarily result in purchase orders for our products. In addition, it could take up to several months before a design win translates into a purchase order, if at all. The value of any design win, moreover, will largely depend upon the commercial success of our customers product and on the extent to which the design of the customers electronic system accommodates components manufactured by our competitors. IF WE FAIL TO DEVELOP AND INTRODUCE NEW PRODUCTS ON A TIMELY BASIS, WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO ATTRACT AND RETAIN CUSTOMERS. We operate in an industry that is characterized by rapidly changing technology, frequent product introductions, product obsolescence, and ongoing demands for greater performance and functionality. We, therefore, must continually design, develop and introduce on a timely basis new products with improved features to retain and attract customers and be competitive. Successful product development and introduction on a timely basis requires that we: |
- | design innovative and performance-enhancing features that differentiate our products from those of our competitors; |
- | transition our products to new manufacturing technologies; |
- | identify emerging technological trends in our target markets, including new standards for our products; |
- | accurately identify and design new products to meet market needs; |
- | bring products to market on a timely basis at competitive prices and maintain effective marketing strategies; |
- | maintain a high level of investment in research and development; |
- | respond effectively to technological changes or product announcements by others; and |
- | adjust to changing market conditions as quickly and cost-effectively as necessary to compete successfully. |
We cannot assure you that we will be able to meet the design and market introduction schedules for our new products or enhancements to our existing products or that these products will achieve market acceptance. IN ORDER TO REMAIN COMPETITIVE IN THE ANALOG SEMICONDUCTOR INDUSTRY, WE MUST DEVELOP AND INTRODUCE NEW SEMICONDUCTOR DESIGN AND MANUFACTURING PROCESS TECHNOLOGIES ON A TIMELY BASIS. Our future success depends upon our ability to: |
- | design and develop products that utilize new manufacturing process technologies; |
- | secure the availability of our new manufacturing process technologies from our foundries; |
- | introduce new manufacturing process technologies to the marketplace earlier than our - competitors do; and |
- | transfer our product design to multiple foundries efficiently. |
Semiconductor design and manufacturing process technologies are subject to rapid technological change, and require large expenditures for research and development. We incurred research and development expenses of $14.9 million for the year ended September 30, 2000, $7.8 million for the year ended September 30, 1999 and $7.2 million for the year ended September 30, 1998. We expect that our expenses for research and development will continue to increase because we continuously attempt, on a product-by-product basis, to migrate to smaller geometry process technologies. Other companies in the industry have experienced difficulty in transitioning to new manufacturing processes and, consequently, have suffered reduced yields or delays in product deliveries. While we believe that transitioning our products to smaller geometries will be important for us to remain competitive, we cannot be certain that we can make these transitions successfully and on a cost-effective basis. DUE TO OUR SIGNIFICANT LEVEL OF INTERNATIONAL NET REVENUES AND THE UTILIZATION OF FOREIGN MANUFACTURERS AND SUBCONTRACTORS, WE ARE SUBJECT TO INTERNATIONAL OPERATIONAL, FINANCIAL AND POLITICAL RISKS. Sales of our products to customers outside the United States have accounted for a significant part of our net revenues. Our total international net revenues, as a percentage of our net revenues, were 75% for the year ended September 30, 2000, 57% for the year ended September 30, 1999 and 53% for the year ended September 30, 1998. We expect our international net revenues, particularly into Japan, Taiwan and Korea, to continue to account for a significant percentage of our net revenues in the future. In addition, we expect to continue to rely on manufacturers and subcontractors located in Taiwan, Malaysia and Thailand. Accordingly, we will be subject to risks and challenges that we would not otherwise face if we conducted our business only in the United States. These include: |
- | compliance with a wide variety of foreign laws and regulations; |
- | changes in laws and regulations relating to the import or export of semiconductor products; |
- | legal uncertainties regarding taxes, tariffs, quotas, export controls, export licenses and other trade barriers; |
- | political and economic instability in or foreign conflicts involving the countries of our customers, |
- | manufacturers and subcontractors causing |
- | delays or reductions in orders for our products; |
- | difficulties in collecting accounts receivable and longer accounts |
- | receivable payment cycles; |
- | difficulties in staffing and managing personnel, distributors and |
- | representatives in foreign countries; |
- | reduced protection for intellectual property rights in some countries, |
- | particularly in Asia; |
- | currency exchange rate fluctuations, which could increase the price of our |
- | products in local currencies and thereby reduce our net revenues from |
- | these sales; |
- | seasonal fluctuations in purchasing patterns in other countries; and |
- | fluctuations in freight rates and transportation disruptions. |
Any of these factors could harm our existing international operations and business or impair our ability to continue expanding into international markets. To the extent we are unable to expand our international net revenues in a timely and cost-effective manner, our business could be harmed. We cannot assure you that we will be able to maintain or increase international market demand for our products. WE DEPEND ON A LIMITED NUMBER OF THIRD PARTY FOUNDRIES TO MANUFACTURE MOST OF OUR PRODUCTS, WHICH REDUCES OUR CONTROL OVER THE PRODUCTION, SUPPLY AND DELIVERY OF OUR PRODUCTS. We depend on a limited number of third party foundries for the production of most of our products. In particular, Lucent Technologies Inc. manufactures all of our junction isolation complementary bipolar wafers, and American Microsystems, Inc. and United Microelectronics Corporation manufacture all of our complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor wafers. In addition, another foundry provides poly deposition on all of our dielectric isolation wafers and silicon-on-insulator wafers. Our dependence on third parties to fabricate our products has significant risks that could potentially harm our operating results, including: |
- | We have no long-term contracts with any foundry and we do not have a guaranteed level of production capacity at any foundry. The ability of each foundry to provide wafers to us is limited by its available capacity and our foundry suppliers could provide that limited capacity to its other customers. In addition, our foundry suppliers could reduce or even eliminate the capacity allocated to us on short notice. Moreover, such a reduction or elimination is possible even after we have submitted a purchase order. |
- | To obtain foundry capacity, we may be forced to enter into equity and debt financing arrangements. These arrangements could result in the dilution of our earnings or in the ownership of our stockholders. |
- | We provide the foundries with rolling forecasts of our production requirements; however, our forecasts of production requirements may prove to be inaccurate. |
- | We have limited control over product delivery schedules, and we may not receive products within the time frames and in the volumes required by our customers. |
- | We could face delays in obtaining, or we might not be able to obtain, access to foundries with key fabrication process technologies, such as the fabrication process necessary to manufacture dielectric isolation wafers and silicon-on-insulator wafers. |
- | We have limited control over quality assurance and production costs. |
- | We have limited control over manufacturing yields and our foundries occasionally experience lower than anticipated manufacturing yields, particularly in connection with the introduction of new products and enhancements to existing products, and the design, installation and initiation of new process technologies. |
We cannot be certain that we will be able to maintain our good relationships with our existing foundries. In addition, we cannot be certain that we will be able to form relationships with other foundries as favorable as our current ones. Moreover, transferring from our existing foundries to another foundry could require a significant amount of time and loss of revenue, and we cannot assure you that we could make a smooth and timely transition. If foundries are unable or unwilling to continue to supply us with these semiconductor devices in required time frames and volumes or at commercially acceptable costs, our business may be harmed. WE ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE PRODUCTION OF OUR DIELECTRIC ISOLATION WAFERS AND SILICON-ON-INSULATOR WAFERS AND OUR RESULTS OF OPERATIONS COULD BE HARMED IF OUR SUPPLY OF THOSE WAFERS DOES NOT MEET THE DEMAND. Our own fabrication facilities are the only facilities currently available to us that are capable of manufacturing dielectric isolation wafers and silicon-on-insulator wafers for our products. If we experience a reduction or interruption in the supply, or a degradation in the quality of any of the wafers, we may be forced to discontinue products based upon those wafers until we can contract with third party foundries that are qualified to produce those wafers. As a result, our relationships with our customers could be harmed if we are unable to deliver sufficient quantities of wafers. We intend to outsource the high-volume production of silicon-on-insulator wafers in the future. We intend to transfer the process to a suitable foundry, but we cannot provide any assurance that a suitable foundry can be qualified for this production. If we are unable to locate and qualify a suitable foundry, we will be required to make significant capital investments in our internal foundry capacity, which is likely to increase our costs of doing business. IF WE FAIL TO DEVELOP OUR NEXT GENERATION SILICON-ON-INSULATOR TECHNOLOGY IN A TIMELY MANNER, OUR BUSINESS AND OPERATING RESULTS COULD BE HARMED. Part of our future product development strategy includes the development of an advanced silicon-on-insulator technology. As with the development of any process technology, we cannot assure you that this new technology can be successfully implemented in a timely manner or that it will provide the desired improvements over our current technology. In addition, our next generation silicon-on-insulator technology could be supplanted by alternative new technologies and may not be able to be transferred to third party foundries. Significant delays or cancellation of the development of this new generation of technology or manufacturing problems associated with transferring our current product line to this technology could harm our business and results of operations. Significant delays or cancellation of the development of this technology also could harm our new product development program. WE RELY ON A LIMITED NUMBER OF PACKAGING SUBCONTRACTORS THAT MAY NOT HAVE ADEQUATE CAPACITY TO MEET OUR PRODUCT DELIVERY REQUIREMENTS. We rely on a limited number of packaging subcontractors with whom we do not have long-term contracts. In general, the wafers we manufacture at our fabrication facilities and the wafers we purchase from our outside foundries are tested at our facilities. The wafers are then sent to our packaging subcontractors for packaging and assembling. Our reliance on these subcontractors involves significant risks, including a lack of adequate capacity, the possibility that they may eliminate the necessary manufacturing process technologies, and reduced control over quality and delivery schedules. These independent subcontractors may discontinue doing business with us for a variety of reasons. As a result, we may experience product delivery and quality assurance problems, which in turn may harm our reputation and operating results. |
IF OUR PRODUCTS CONTAIN DEFECTS OR FAIL TO ACHIEVE INDUSTRY RELIABILITY STANDARDS, OUR REPUTATION MAY BE HARMED, AND WE MAY INCUR SIGNIFICANT UNEXPECTED EXPENSES AND LOSE SALES OPPORTUNITIES. Our products have in the past occasionally contained, and may in the future contain, undetected errors or defects. Any similar problem in the future may: |
- | cause delays in product introductions and shipments; |
- | result in increased costs and diversion of development resources; |
- | cause us to incur increased charges due to obsolete or unusable inventory; |
- | require design modifications; or |
- | decrease market acceptance or customer satisfaction with these products, which could result in product returns. |
In addition, we may not find defects or failures in our products until after commencement of commercial shipments, which may result in loss or delay in market acceptance and could significantly harm our operating results. Our current or potential customers also might seek to recover from us any losses resulting from defects or failures in our products. Liability claims could require us to spend significant time and money in litigation or to pay significant damages. Any of these claims, whether or not successful, could seriously damage our reputation and business. EARTHQUAKES, OTHER NATURAL DISASTERS AND POWER SHORTAGES MAY DAMAGE OUR FACILITIES OR THE FACILITIES OF THIRD-PARTIES ON WHICH WE DEPEND. Our corporate headquarters are located in California near major earthquake faults which have experienced earthquakes in the past. In addition, some of the foundries, suppliers and other third parties upon which we rely are located near fault lines. In the event of an earthquake or other natural disaster near one or more of the facilities of third parties upon which we rely, like the earthquake in Taiwan in September 1999, could disrupt the operations of those parties. Additionally, the loss of power, such as the temporary loss of power caused by power shortages in the grid servicing our facilities in Northern California, could disrupt our operations or impair our critical systems. None of these disruptions would be covered by insurance, so the supply of our products could be limited and our business could be hampered. IF WE FAIL TO ATTRACT AND RETAIN QUALIFIED PERSONNEL, OUR BUSINESS MAY BE HARMED. Our future success depends largely upon the continued service of our key management and technical personnel, and on our continued ability to hire, integrate and retain qualified management and technical personnel, particularly engineers. Competition for these employees in the analog semiconductor industry is intense, and we may not be successful in attracting or retaining these personnel. In addition, even if we are able to attract qualified personnel, it is difficult to obtain work visas for foreign professionals trained in the United States. The loss of any key employee, the failure of any key employee to perform in his or her current position or our inability to attract and retain skilled employees as needed could impair our ability to meet customer and technological demands. The loss of the services of any executive officer or other key technical or management personnel could harm our business. To help retain the continued services of some of our key executives, we have entered into employment agreements with some of them. We do not have key person life insurance on any of our key personnel. IF DIGITAL INTEGRATED CIRCUITS REPLACE ANALOG INTEGRATED CIRCUITS, OUR BUSINESS, WHICH DEPENDS ON THE DEMAND FOR PRODUCTS BASED ON ANALOG TECHNOLOGIES, MAY FAIL. All of our products are based on analog technologies. However, as digital integrated circuits have become faster and their processing capacity has expanded, digital circuits have increasingly been used to perform functions in electronic systems that were previously performed with analog technologies. We cannot assure you that further advances in digital processing power will not eventually supplant analog technologies in those new applications, which could harm our business and results of operations. |
IF WE FAIL TO PROTECT OUR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY, OUR COMPETITORS COULD MARKET PRODUCTS WITH SIMILAR FEATURES, REDUCING DEMAND FOR OUR PRODUCTS AND HARMING OUR OPERATING RESULTS. Our success depends in part on our ability to protect our intellectual property rights covering our products and technologies. We rely on a combination of patent, copyright, trademark, trade secret laws and confidentiality procedures to protect our proprietary rights. Despite our efforts to protect our proprietary rights, unauthorized parties may attempt to copy aspects of our products or to obtain and use information that we regard as proprietary. In addition, the laws of some foreign countries, and the enforcement of those laws, do not protect proprietary rights to as great an extent as do the laws of the United States. We also cannot assure you that: |
- | our means of protecting our proprietary rights will be adequate; |
- | patents will issue from our currently pending or future applications; |
- | our existing patents or any new patents will be sufficient in scope or strength to provide any meaningful protection or commercial advantage to us; |
- | any patent or registered trademark owned by us will not be invalidated, circumvented or challenged in the United States or foreign countries; or |
- | others will not misappropriate our proprietary technologies or independently develop similar technology, duplicate our products or design around any patent issued to us or other intellectual property rights of ours. |
In addition, we may initiate claims or litigation against third parties for infringement of our proprietary rights to establish the validity of our proprietary rights. This litigation, whether or not it is resolved in our favor, could result in significant expense to us and divert the efforts of our technical and management personnel. FROM TIME TO TIME WE MAY BE SUBJECT TO CLAIMS OF INFRINGEMENT OF OTHER PARTIES PROPRIETARY RIGHTS, OR TO CLAIMS THAT OUR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS ARE INVALID, WHICH COULD RESULT IN SIGNIFICANT EXPENSE AND LOSS OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS. From time to time we have received, and, in the future, may receive claims that we are infringing third parties intellectual property rights or claims that our trademarks, patents or other intellectual property rights are invalid. The semiconductor industry is characterized by uncertain and conflicting intellectual property claims and vigorous protection and pursuit of these rights. The resolution of any claims of this nature, with or without merit, could be time consuming, result in costly litigation or cause product shipment delays. In the event of an adverse ruling, we might be required to discontinue the use of certain processes, cease the manufacture and sale of infringing products, expend significant resources to develop non-infringing technology or enter into royalty or licensing agreements. Royalty or licensing agreements, if required, might not be available on terms acceptable to us or at all. The loss of access to any intellectual property could harm our business. OUR FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH ENVIRONMENTAL LAWS AND REGULATIONS COULD SUBJECT US TO SIGNIFICANT FINES AND LIABILITIES, AND NEW LAWS AND REGULATIONS OR CHANGES IN REGULATORY INTERPRETATION OR ENFORCEMENT COULD MAKE COMPLIANCE MORE DIFFICULT AND COSTLY. We are subject to a variety of federal, state, local and foreign governmental laws and regulations related to the use, storage, discharge and disposal of toxic, volatile or otherwise hazardous chemicals used in our manufacturing of semiconductor wafers. Our failure to comply with present or future environmental laws and regulations could result in fines being imposed on us, suspension of our production or a cessation of our operations. Any failure by us to comply with these laws and regulations could subject us to significant liabilities, thereby harming our business and operating results. In addition, new environmental laws and regulations or changes in regulatory interpretation and enforcement could render compliance more difficult and costly and require significant capital expenditures. WE MAY REQUIRE ADDITIONAL CAPITAL TO FUND OUR CAPITAL EXPENDITURES AND OPERATIONS, HOWEVER, SUCH CAPITAL MAY NOT BE AVAILABLE. |
The operation of our fabrication facility requires the continued investment of substantial capital. We intend to make capital investments to support business growth and achieve manufacturing cost reductions and improved yields. We may need equity or debt financing to fund further expansion of our wafer fabrication capacity or to fund other projects. The timing and amount of these capital requirements cannot be precisely determined at this time and will depend on a number of factors, including demand for our products, our product mix, changes in semiconductor industry conditions and competitive factors. Debt or equity financing may not be available when needed or, if available, may not be available on terms satisfactory to us. WE MAY ENGAGE IN FUTURE ACQUISITIONS, WHICH COULD HARM OUR PROFITABILITY, PUT A STRAIN ON OUR RESOURCES, OR CAUSE DILUTION TO OUR STOCKHOLDERS. While we have made no acquisitions of businesses in the past, we may make acquisitions of complementary businesses, products or technologies in the future. Integrating newly acquired organizations, products or technologies into our business could be expensive, time consuming and may not be successful. Future acquisitions could divert our managements attention from other business concerns and expose our business to unforeseen liabilities or risks associated with entering new markets. In addition, we may lose key employees while integrating new organizations. Consequently, we may not be successful in integrating any acquired business, products or technologies and may not achieve anticipated revenue and cost benefits. In addition, future acquisitions could result in customer dissatisfaction, performance problems with an acquired company, potentially dilutive issuances of equity securities or the incurrence of debt, contingent liabilities, amortization expenses related to goodwill and other intangible assets or other unanticipated events or circumstances, any of which could harm our business. THE TRADING PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK MAY BE VOLATILE. The market for securities of technology companies in general, and of companies in the semiconductor industry, including us in particular, has been highly volatile. It is likely that the trading price of our common stock will continue to fluctuate in the future. Factors affecting the trading price of our common stock include: |
- | responses to fluctuations in our operating results; |
- | announcements of technological innovations, new products or product enhancements, joint ventures or significant agreements by us or our competitors; |
- | our sales of common stock or other securities in the future; |
- | general conditions in the video, optical storage, communications and power management markets; and |
- | changes in financial estimates or recommendations by market analysts regarding us and our competitors. |
In addition, the stock market has experienced substantial price and volume volatility that has particularly affected the trading prices of equity securities of many technology companies and that often has been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating results of these companies. As a result, any broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the trading price of our common stock. PROVISIONS OF OUR CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION AND BYLAWS OR DELAWARE LAW MAY DELAY OR PREVENT A CHANGE OF CONTROL OF ELANTEC OR CHANGES IN OUR MANAGEMENT AND THEREFORE, DEPRESS THE TRADING PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK. Delaware corporate law and our certificate of incorporation and bylaws contain provisions that could delay, defer or prevent a change in control of our company or changes in our management that you may deem advantageous. These provisions could also limit the price that investors might be willing to pay in the future for shares of our common stock. These provisions: |
- | authorize the issuance of blank check preferred stock, which is preferred stock that our board of directors can create and issue without prior stockholder approval with rights senior to those of common stock; |
- | limit the ability of stockholders to call special meetings of stockholders; |
- | prohibit cumulative voting in the election of directors, which would allow less than a majority of stockholders to elect director candidates; and |
- | establish advance notice requirements for submitting nominations for election to the board of directors and for proposing matters that can be acted upon by stockholders at a meeting. |

Microtek International, located in Japan, and Insight Electronics, Inc., located in North America, are distributors who are supporting our sales to a large number of customers. At September 30, 2000, Microtek International and Samsung Electronics accounted for 32% and 13%, respectively, of the Companys trade receivables. At September 30, 1999, Microtek International and Insight Electronics accounted for 44% and 11%, respectively, of the Companys trade receivables. Inventories. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market with actual cost determined using the first-in, first-out method. Property and Equipment. Machinery and equipment as well as furniture and fixtures are stated at cost and depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the assets (three to ten years) using the straight-line method. Leasehold improvements are stated at cost and amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the useful lives of the assets or the remaining lease term. Assets under capital leases are recorded at the present value of the related lease obligations and amortized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Long-lived Assets. The Company accounts for long-lived assets in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (FAS) No. 121, Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of. FAS No. 121 requires long-lived assets to be evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Stock-Based Compensation. The Company accounts for stock-based awards to employees using the intrinsic value method in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion (APB) No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees. Revenue Recognition. Net revenues are stated net of estimated discounts and allowances. Revenue from product sales direct to customers and foreign distributors is generally recognized upon shipment. However, the Company defers the recognition of revenue and the related cost of revenue on shipments to domestic distributors that have certain rights of return and price protection privileges on unsold merchandise until the merchandise is sold by the distributor. Foreign Currency Translation. The functional currencies of our foreign subsidiaries are their respective local currencies. Accordingly, gains and losses from the translation of the financial statements of the foreign subsidiaries are reported as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are included in net earnings. Income Taxes. The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax basis of assets and liabilities. A valuation allowance is established to reduce the deferred tax asset if it is more likely than not that the related tax benefits will not be realized in the future. |

Under APB 25, the Company generally recognizes no compensation expense with respect to stock-based awards to employees. Pro forma information regarding net income and earnings per share is required by FAS 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, for awards granted in fiscal years that begin after December 31, 1994, as if the Company had accounted for its stock-based awards to employees under the fair value method of FAS 123. The fair value of the Companys stock-based awards to employees was estimated using a Black-Scholes option pricing model. The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options that have no vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. The Black-Scholes model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility. Because the Companys stock-based awards to employees have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in managements opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of its stock-based awards to employees. The fair value of the Companys stock-based awards to employees was estimated assuming no expected dividends and the following weighted-average assumptions: |
