ITEM 1 - BUSINESS
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
General
Overview
JDS Uniphase Corporation ("JDSU," also referred to as "the Company," "we," "our," and "us") is a leading provider of communications test and measurement solutions and optical products for telecommunications service providers, wireless operators, cable operators, network-equipment manufacturers ("NEMs"), and enterprises. JDSU also is an established leader in providing anti-counterfeiting technologies for currencies and other high value documents and products. In addition, we leverage our core networking and optical technology expertise to deliver high-powered commercial lasers for manufacturing applications and expand into emerging markets, including gesture-recognition solutions for consumer electronics.
To serve our markets, JDSU operates the following business segments: Communications Test and Measurement ("CommTest"), which accounted for approximately 43.4% of net revenue in fiscal 2013; Communications and Commercial Optical Products ("CCOP"), which accounted for approximately 44.3% of net revenue in fiscal 2013; and Optical Security and Performance Products ("OSP"), which accounted for approximately 12.3% of net revenue in fiscal 2013.
Industry Trends
The trends that drive the communications networking industry influence our CommTest and CCOP businesses. Mobility, the widespread adoption of connected smart mobile devices and demand for high-speed broadband access to support video and other high-bandwidth applications are straining networks and creating new challenges for JDSU's customers. The growing use of social networking and cloud computing also make network traffic more unpredictable, generating sudden spikes in volume, and making it increasingly more challenging to deliver a quality end-user experience. Meeting these challenges requires greater network agility and more cost-effective means to build, deploy and maintain profitable, high performance networks. JDSU's optical and network and service enablement solutions are well positioned to benefit from these requirements as well as the deployment of next generation network technologies such as 4G/Long Term Evolution ("LTE"), higher-capacity transport solutions to support video communications ("40G/100G") and FTTx.
Trends related to the increasing threat of counterfeiting impact our OSP business. Counterfeiting for currency and other goods is on the rise, because penalties are relatively light and technological advances and cheaper distribution means have made counterfeiting easier than ever. JDSU enjoys long-standing relationships with government and leading commercial enterprises built on decades of anti-counterfeiting expertise leveraging our optically variable pigment technologies to protect the integrity of currency and other high value products and documents. We also provide critical optical solutions for government, healthcare and consumer markets.
In addition to network and anti-counterfeiting solutions, JDSU extends its technology expertise to solve complex problems and deliver unique solutions in other industries. For example, our high-precision lasers are used for a wide range of manufacturing applications, addressing the need for lower power consumption, reduced manufacturing footprint, increased productivity, and more cost-effective processes. In addition, JDSU's laser diodes and optical coatings are used for emerging gesture-recognition applications. Gesture recognition is an emerging market that allows a person to control technology with natural body gestures instead of using a remote, mouse or other device. Gesture-recognition systems simplify the way that people interact with technology, and are first being used in applications for gaming platforms.
Sales and Marketing
JDSU markets its products to telecommunications and cable service providers, NEMs, original equipment manufacturers ("OEM"), enterprises, government organizations, distributors and strategic partners worldwide. Each business segment has a dedicated sales force that communicates directly with customers' executive, technical, manufacturing, and purchasing personnel as needed to determine design, performance, and cost requirements. In addition, all business segments are working to expand opportunities in emerging geographic markets directly and through alternate channels of distribution.
A high level of support is necessary to develop and maintain long-term collaborative relationships with our customers. JDSU develops innovative products by engaging the customer at the initial design phase and continues to build the relationship as customer needs change and develop. Service and support are provided through JDSU offices and those of its partners worldwide.
Additional Information
JDSU was incorporated in California in 1979 and reincorporated in Delaware in 1993. JDSU is the product of several significant mergers and acquisitions including, among others, the combination of Uniphase Corporation and JDS FITEL in 1999, and the acquisition of Acterna, Inc. in 2005. Our strategy is to operate as a company comprised of a portfolio of businesses with a focus on optical innovation, communications network and service enablement, and anti-counterfeiting solutions.
We are subject to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, pursuant to which we file annual, quarterly and periodic reports, proxy statements and other information with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Such reports, proxy statements and other information may be obtained by visiting the Public Reference Room of the SEC at 100 F Street, NE, Washington, DC 20549 or by calling the SEC at 1-800-SEC-0330. In addition, the SEC maintains a website (www.sec.gov) that contains reports, proxy and information statements, and other information regarding issuers that file electronically with the SEC. We also post all of our SEC filings on our website at www.jdsu.com/investors as soon as reasonably practicable after they are electronically filed with or furnished to the SEC.
Corporate Strategy
Our objective is to continue to be a leading provider for all markets and industries we serve. In support of our business segments, we are pursuing a corporate strategy that we believe will best position us for future opportunities. The key elements of our corporate strategy include:
•Enable our customers through collaborative innovation
We are committed to working closely with our customers from initial product design and manufacturing through to solution deployment and training. We strive to engage with our customers at the early stages of development to provide them with the most innovative and timely products and services and ensure that our focus remains aligned with their emerging requirements. Our sales, customer support, product marketing, and development efforts are organized to maximize effectiveness in our customer interactions.
•Maintain and improve our financial flexibility
We continue to take actions to maintain and improve our financial flexibility in order to support our global business operations and to enable additional investments in growth and innovation. Key elements of this strategy include maintaining a healthy balance sheet with a strong liquidity position, continuing to generate positive cash flow, diligently managing our cash conversion cycle, managing our capital structure to minimize cost of capital and preserve access
to additional financing, managing capital market risk and refinancing risk with periodic debt issuance and/or maintenance of revolving credit facilities, and maintaining healthy bank relationships.
•Build a lean and scalable business
We continue to streamline our manufacturing operations and reduce costs by using contract manufacturers where appropriate and consolidating to reduce our footprint and total fixed costs. In addition, our shared corporate functions model cost-effectively provides our business segments with the centralized strength and depth of a larger company, while allowing each segment to remain focused and responsive to its own market needs.
•Invest in profitable, market-based innovation
Based on current and anticipated demand, we continue to invest in research and development ("R&D") and through acquisitions and partnerships in new technologies, products and services that offer our customers increased value and strengthen the leadership position in our core markets. In fiscal 2013, we continued to invest in product development in line with our profitability and growth objectives. The acquisitions of GenComm Co., Ltd. ("GenComm") and Arieso Limited ("Arieso") expanded our mobile network and service enablement solutions.
•Expand our global market presence
Long term, we expect higher rates of growth in the Asia-Pacific, Eastern Europe and Latin America regions. Therefore, we are developing products, sales, marketing and customer support to meet the specific customer requirements in these regions in order to serve these customers better.
Although we expect to successfully implement our strategy, internal and/or external factors could impact our ability to meet any, or all, of our objectives. These factors are discussed under

ITEM 1A - RISK FACTORS
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
We have a history of net losses, and our future profitability is not assured.
Although we had net profits of $57.0 million and $71.6 million in fiscal 2013 and 2011, respectively, and we incurred a net loss of $55.6 million in fiscal 2012. JDSU operates as a portfolio company, comprised of many product lines, with diverse operating metrics and markets. As a result, our profitability in a particular period is impacted by both revenue and product mix due to the fact that gross margin varies significantly across our product portfolio and business segments. Additionally, for the last several years, we have undergone multiple manufacturing, facility, organizational and product line transitions. We expect some of these activities to continue for the foreseeable future. These activities are costly and impair our profitability objectives while ongoing. Specific factors that may undermine our financial objectives include, among others:
•uncertain future telecom carrier and cable operator capital and R&D spending levels, which particularly affects our CCOP and CommTest segments;
•adverse changes to our product mix, both fundamentally (resulting from new product transitions, the declining profitability of certain legacy products and the termination of certain products with declining margins, among other things) and due to quarterly demand fluctuations;
•intense pricing pressure across our product lines due to competitive forces, increasingly from Asia, and to a highly concentrated customer base for many of our product lines, which continues to offset many of the cost improvements we are realizing quarter over quarter;
•limited availability of components for our products which leads to higher component prices, particularly in our CCOP segment;
•increasing commoditization of previously differentiated products, and the attendant negative effect on average selling prices and profit margins, particularly in our CCOP segment;
•execution challenges, which limit revenue opportunities and harm profitability, market opportunities and customer relations;
•decreased revenue associated with terminated or divested product lines;
•redundant costs related to periodic transitioning of manufacturing to low-cost locations;
•ongoing costs associated with organizational transitions, consolidations and restructurings, which are expected to continue in the nearer term;
•continuing high levels of selling, general and administrative, ("SG&A") expenses; and
•seasonal fluctuations in revenue from our CommTest segment.
Taken together, these factors limit our ability to predict future profitability levels and to achieve our long-term profitability objectives. While some of these factors may diminish over time as we improve our cost structure and focus on enhancing our product mix, several factors, such as continuous pricing pressure, increasing Asia-based competition, increasing commoditization of previously-differentiated products, a highly concentrated customer base for many of our product lines and seasonal CommTest segment revenue fluctuations, are likely to remain endemic to our businesses. If we fail to achieve profitability expectations, the price of our debt and equity securities, as well as our business and financial condition, may be materially adversely impacted.
Our operating results may be adversely affected by unfavorable economic and market conditions.
Economic conditions worldwide have from time to time contributed to slowdowns in the technology industry at large, as well as to the specific segments and markets in which we operate. The global economic downturn that began in 2008, and the slow pace of economic recovery, including but not limited to the effects on global credit markets, has led to increased uncertainty in the timing and overall demand from our customers. Continuing concerns about global economic conditions could decrease or delay customer spending, increase price competition for our products, increase our risk of excess and obsolete inventories and higher overhead costs as a percentage of revenue. Continued economic challenges could further negatively impact our operations by affecting the solvency of our customers, the solvency of our key suppliers or the ability of our customers to obtain credit to finance purchases of our products. If the global economy and credit markets deteriorate and our future sales decline, our financial condition and results of operations would likely be materially adversely impacted.
In particular, economic uncertainty in Europe has led to reduced demand in our optical communications product portfolios. If economic conditions in Europe do not recover or continue to deteriorate this may further adversely affect our operations. Actual or perceived currency or budget crises could increase economic uncertainty in Europe, and globally, which could have an adverse effect on our customers' operations and could further reduce demand for our products.
In addition, we have significant long-lived assets recorded on our balance sheet. We will continue to evaluate the recoverability of the carrying amount of our goodwill and long-lived assets on an ongoing basis, and we may incur substantial impairment charges, which would adversely affect our financial results. There can be no assurance that the outcome of such reviews in the future will not result in substantial impairment charges. Impairment assessment inherently involves judgment as to assumptions about expected future cash flows and the impact of market conditions on those assumptions. Future events and changing market conditions may impact our assumptions as to prices, costs, holding periods or other factors that may result in changes in our estimates of future cash flows. Although we believe the assumptions we used in testing for impairment are reasonable, significant changes in any one of our assumptions could produce a significantly different result. If, in any period, our stock price decreases to the point where the fair value of the Company, as determined by our market capitalization, is less than our book value, this too could indicate a potential impairment and we may be required to record an impairment charge in that period.
The manufacture, quality and distribution of our products, as well as our customer relations, may be affected by several factors, including the rapidly changing market for our products, supply issues and internal restructuring efforts. We expect the impact of these issues will become more pronounced as we continue to introduce new product offerings and when overall demand increases.
Our success depends upon our ability to deliver both our current product offerings and new products and technologies on time and at acceptable cost to our customers. The markets for our products are characterized by rapid technological change, frequent new product introductions, substantial capital investment, changes in customer requirements and a constantly evolving industry. Our future performance will depend on the successful development, introduction and market acceptance of new and enhanced products that address these issues and provide solutions that meet our customers' current and future needs. As a technology company, we also constantly encounter quality, volume and cost concerns such as:
•Our continuing cost reduction programs, which include site and organization consolidations, asset divestitures, outsourcing the manufacture of certain products to contract manufacturers and reductions in employee headcount, require the re-establishment and re-qualification by our customers of complex manufacturing lines, as well as modifications to systems, planning and operational infrastructure. During this process, we have experienced, and continue to
experience additional costs, delays in re-establishing volume production levels, planning difficulties, inventory issues, factory absorption concerns, and systems integration problems.
•We have experienced increases in demand for certain of our products in the midst of our cost reduction programs, which have strained our execution abilities as well as those of our suppliers. Because of this, we at times experience periodic and varying capacity, workforce and materials constraints, enhanced by the impact of our ongoing product and operational transfers.
•We have experienced variability of manufacturing yields caused by difficulties in the manufacturing process, the effects from a shift in product mix, changes in product specifications and the introduction of new product lines. These difficulties can reduce yields or disrupt production and thereby increase our manufacturing costs and adversely affect our margin.
•We may incur significant costs to correct defective products (despite rigorous testing for quality both by our customers and by us), which could include lost future sales of the affected product and other products, and potentially severe customer relations problems, litigation and damage to our reputation.
•We are dependent on a limited number of vendors, who are often small and specialized, for raw materials, packages and standard components. We also rely on contract manufacturers around the world to manufacture certain of our products. Our business and results of operations have been, and could continue to be adversely affected by this dependency. Specific concerns we periodically encounter with our suppliers include stoppages or delays of supply, insufficient vendor resources to supply our requirements, substitution of more expensive or less reliable products, receipt of defective parts or contaminated materials, increases in the price of supplies, and an inability to obtain reduced pricing from our suppliers in response to competitive pressures. Additionally, the ability of our contract manufacturers to fulfill their obligations may be affected by economic, political or other forces that are beyond our control. Any such failure could have a material impact on our ability to meet customers' expectations and may materially impact our operating results.
•New product programs and introductions involve changing product specifications and customer requirements, unanticipated engineering complexities, difficulties in reallocating resources and overcoming resource limitations and with their increased complexity, which expose us to yield and product risk internally and with our suppliers.
These factors have caused considerable strain on our execution capabilities and customer relations. We have and could continue to see (a) periodic difficulty responding to customer delivery expectations for some of our products, (b) yield and quality problems, particularly with some of our new products and higher volume products, and (c) additional funds and other resources required to respond to these execution challenges. From time to time, we have had to divert resources from new product R&D and other functions to assist with resolving these matters. If we do not improve our performance in all of these areas, our operating results will be harmed, the commercial viability of new products may be challenged and our customers may choose to reduce or terminate their purchases of our products and purchase additional products from our competitors.
We rely on a limited number of customers for a significant portion of our sales.
We believe that we will continue to rely upon a limited number of customers for a significant portion of our revenues for the foreseeable future, particularly in our CCOP and OSP business segments. Any failure by us to continue capturing a significant share of these customers could materially harm our business. Dependence on a limited number of customers exposes us to the risk
that order reductions from any one customer can have a material adverse effect on periodic revenue. Further, to the extent that there is consolidation between communications equipment manufacturers and service providers, we will have increased dependence on fewer customers who may be able to exert increased pressure on our prices and other contract terms. Customer consolidation activity and periodic manufacturing and inventory initiatives could also create the potential for disruptions in demand for our products as a consequence of such customers streamlining, reducing or delaying purchasing decisions.
We have a strategic alliance with SICPA, our principal customer for our light interference microflakes that are used to, among other things, provide security features in currency. Under a license and supply agreement, we rely exclusively on SICPA to market and sell one of these product lines, optically variable pigment, for document authentication applications worldwide. The agreement requires SICPA to purchase minimum quantities of these pigments over the term of the agreement. If SICPA fails to purchase these quantities, as and when required by the agreement, our business and operating results (including, among other things, our revenue and gross margin) will be harmed as we may be unable to find a substitute marketing and sales partner or develop these capabilities ourselves.
We face a number of risks related to our strategic transactions.
Our strategy continues to include periodic acquisitions and divestitures of businesses and technologies. Strategic transactions of this nature involve numerous risks, including the following:
•difficulties and costs in integrating or disintegrating the operations, technologies, products, IT and other systems, facilities, and personnel of the affected businesses;
•inadequate internal control procedures and disclosure controls to comply with the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, or poor integration of a target company's or business's procedures and controls;
•diversion of management's attention from normal daily operations of the business;
•potential difficulties in completing projects associated with in-process R&D;
•difficulties in entering markets in which we have no or limited prior experience and where competitors have stronger market positions;
•difficulties in obtaining or providing sufficient transition services and accurately projecting the time and cost associated with providing these services;
•an acquisition may not further our business strategy as we expected or we may overpay for, or otherwise not realize the expected return on, our investments;
•insufficient net revenue to offset increased expenses associated with acquisitions;
•potential loss of key employees of the acquired companies; and
•difficulty in forecasting revenues and margins.
Acquisitions may also cause us to:
•issue common stock that would dilute our current shareholders' percentage ownership and may decrease earnings per share;
•assume liabilities, some of which may be unknown at the time of the acquisitions;
•record goodwill and non-amortizable intangible assets that will be subject to impairment testing and potential periodic impairment charges;
•incur additional debt to finance such acquisitions;
•incur amortization expenses related to certain intangible assets; or
•acquire, assume, or become subject to litigation related to the acquired businesses or assets.
Certain of our products are subject to governmental and industry regulations, certifications and approvals.
The commercialization of certain of the products we design, manufacture and distribute through our CCOP and OSP segments may be more costly due to required government approval and industry acceptance processes. Development of applications for our light interference and diffractive microflakes may require significant testing that could delay our sales. For example, certain uses in cosmetics may be regulated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, which has extensive and lengthy approval processes. Durability testing by the automobile industry of our decorative microflakes used with automotive paints can take up to three years. If we change a product for any reason, including technological changes or changes in the manufacturing process, prior approvals or certifications may be invalid and we may need to go through the approval process again. If we are unable to obtain these or other government or industry certifications in a timely manner, or at all, our operating results could be adversely affected.
We face risks related to our international operations and revenue.
Our customers are located throughout the world. In addition, we have significant operations outside North America, including product development, manufacturing, sales and customer support operations.
In particular, as a result of our efforts to reduce costs, we have expanded our use of contract manufacturers in Shenzhen, China, and have expanded our R&D activities there. Our ability to operate in China may be adversely affected by changes in Chinese laws and regulations, such as those relating to taxation, import and export tariffs, environmental regulations, land use rights, intellectual property and other matters, which laws and regulations remain highly underdeveloped and subject to change, with little or no prior notice, for political or other reasons.
Our international presence exposes us to certain risks, including the following:
•currency fluctuations;
•our ability to comply with customs, import/export and other regulations of the countries in which we do business, together with any unexpected changes in such regulations;
•difficulties in establishing and enforcing our intellectual property rights;
•tariffs and other trade barriers;
•political, legal and economic instability in foreign markets, particularly in those markets in which we maintain manufacturing and product development facilities;
•difficulties in staffing and management;
•language and cultural barriers;
•seasonal reductions in business activities in the countries where our international customers are located;
•integration of foreign operations;
•longer payment cycles;
•difficulties in management of foreign distributors; and
•potential adverse tax consequences.
Net revenue from customers outside the Americas accounted for 50.9%, 49.9% and 51.8% of our total net revenue for fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. We expect that net revenue from customers outside North America will continue to account for a significant portion of our total net revenue. Lower sales levels that typically occur during the summer months in Europe and some other overseas markets may materially and adversely affect our business. In addition, the revenues we derive from many of our customers depend on international sales and further expose us to the risks associated with such international sales.
Our business and operations would be adversely impacted in the event of a failure of our information technology infrastructure.
We rely upon the capacity, reliability and security of our information technology infrastructure and our ability to expand and continually update this infrastructure in response to our changing needs. In some cases, we rely upon third party hosting and support services to meet these needs. Any failure to manage, expand and update our information technology infrastructure, any failure in the extension or operation of this infrastructure, or any failure by our hosting and support partners in the performance of their services could materially and adversely harm our business.
Despite our implementation of security measures, our systems are vulnerable to damages from computer viruses, natural disasters, unauthorized access and other similar disruptions. Any system failure, accident or security breach could result in disruptions to our operations. To the extent that any disruptions or security breach results in a loss or damage to our data, or in inappropriate disclosure of confidential information, it could cause significant damage to our reputation and affect our relationships with our customers and ultimately harm our business. In addition, we may be required to incur significant costs to protect against damage caused by these disruptions or security breaches in the future.
Failure to maintain effective internal controls may adversely affect our stock price.
Effective internal controls are necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports and to effectively prevent fraud. The SEC, as directed by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, adopted rules requiring public companies to include a report by management on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting in their annual reports on Form 10-K. In addition, our independent registered public accounting firm must report on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. Although we review our internal control over financial reporting in order to ensure compliance with these requirements, if we or our independent registered public accounting firm is not satisfied with our internal control over financial reporting or the level at which these controls are documented, designed, operated or reviewed, or if our independent registered public accounting firm interprets the requirements, rules and/or regulations differently from our interpretation, then they may issue a qualified report . This could result in a loss of investor confidence in the reliability of our financial statements, which ultimately could negatively impact our stock price.
In August 2013, we issued $650.0 million of 0.625% Senior Convertible Notes due 2033, which could cause dilution to our existing stockholders and lower our reported per share earnings.
We issued $650.0 million of indebtedness in August 2013 in the form of 0.625% Senior Convertible Notes due 2033 (the "Notes"). The issuance of these Notes substantially increased our principal payment obligations. The degree to which we are leveraged could materially and adversely affect our ability to successfully obtain financing for working capital, acquisitions, or other purposes and could make us more vulnerable to industry downturns and competitive pressures. In addition, the holders of
the Notes are entitled to convert the Notes into shares of our common stock or a combination of cash and shares of common stock under certain circumstances which would cause dilution to our existing stockholders and lower our reported per share earnings.
If we have insufficient proprietary rights or if we fail to protect those we have, our business would be materially harmed.
Our intellectual property rights may not be adequate to protect our products or product roadmaps.
We seek to protect our products and our product roadmaps in part by developing and/or securing proprietary rights relating to those products, including patents, trade secrets, know-how and continuing technological innovation. The steps taken by us to protect our intellectual property may not adequately prevent misappropriation or ensure that others will not develop competitive technologies or products. Other companies may be investigating or developing other technologies that are similar to our own. It is possible that patents may not be issued from any of our pending applications or those we may file in the future and, if patents are issued, the claims allowed may not be sufficiently broad to deter or prohibit others from making, using or selling products that are similar to ours. We do not own patents in every country in which we sell or distribute our products, and thus others may be able to offer identical products in countries where we do not have intellectual property protection. In addition, the laws of some territories in which our products are or may be developed, manufactured or sold, including Europe, Asia-Pacific or Latin America, may not protect our products and intellectual property rights to the same extent as the laws of the United States.
Any patents issued to us may be challenged, invalidated or circumvented. Additionally, we are currently a licensee in all of our operating segments for a number of third-party technologies, software and intellectual property rights from academic institutions, our competitors and others, and are required to pay royalties to these licensors for the use thereof. Unless we are able to obtain such licenses on commercially reasonable terms, patents or other intellectual property held by others could inhibit our development of new products, impede the sale of some of our current products, substantially increase the cost to provide these products to our customers, and could have a significant adverse impact on our operating results. In the past, licenses generally have been available to us where third-party technology was necessary or useful for the development or production of our products. In the future licenses to third-party technology may not be available on commercially reasonable terms, if at all.
Our products may be subject to claims that they infringe the intellectual property rights of others.
Lawsuits and allegations of patent infringement and violation of other intellectual property rights occur in our industry on a regular basis. We have received in the past, and anticipate that we will receive in the future, notices from third parties claiming that our products infringe their proprietary rights. Over the past few years there has been a marked increase in the number and potential severity of third-party patent infringement claims, primarily from two distinct sources. First, large technology companies, including some of our customers and competitors, are seeking to monetize their patent portfolios and have developed large internal organizations that have approached us with demands to enter into license agreements. Second, patent-holding companies, entities that do not make or sell products (often referred to as "patent trolls"), have claimed that our products infringe upon their proprietary rights. We will continue to respond to these claims in the course of our business operations. In the past, the resolution of these disputes has not had a material adverse impact on our business or financial condition, however this may not be the case in the future. Further, the litigation or settlement of these matters, regardless of the merit of the claims, could result in significant expense to us and divert the efforts of our technical and management personnel, whether or not we are successful. If we are unsuccessful, we could be required to expend significant resources to develop non-infringing
technology or to obtain licenses to the technology that is the subject of the litigation. We may not be successful in such development, or such licenses may not be available on terms acceptable to us, if at all. Without such a license, we could be enjoined from future sales of the infringing product or products, which could adversely affect our revenues and operating results.
The use of open source software in our products, as well as those of our suppliers, manufacturers and customers, may expose us to additional risks and harm our intellectual property position.
Certain of the software and/or firmware that we use and distribute (as well as that of our suppliers, manufacturers and customers) may be, be derived from, or contain, "open source" software, which is software that is generally made available to the public by its authors and/or other third parties. Such open source software is often made available under licenses which impose obligations in the event the software or derivative works thereof are distributed or re-distributed. These obligations may require us to make source code for the derivative works available to the public, and/or license such derivative works under a particular type of license, rather than the forms of license customarily used to protect our own software products. While we believe we have complied with our obligations under the various applicable licenses for open source software, in the event that a court rules that these licenses are unenforceable, or in the event the copyright holder of any open source software were to successfully establish in court that we had not complied with the terms of a license for a particular work, we could be required to release the source code of that work to the public and/or stop distribution of that work. Additionally, open source licenses are subject to occasional revision. In the event future iterations of open source software are made available under a revised license, such license revisions may adversely affect our ability to use such future iterations.
We face certain litigation risks that could harm our business.
We are and may become subject to various legal proceedings and claims that arise in or outside the ordinary course of business. The results of complex legal proceedings are difficult to predict. Moreover, many of the complaints filed against us do not specify the amount of damages that plaintiffs seek, and we therefore are unable to estimate the possible range of damages that might be incurred should these lawsuits be resolved against us. While we are unable to estimate the potential damages arising from such lawsuits, certain of them assert types of claims that, if resolved against us, could give rise to substantial damages. Thus, an unfavorable outcome or settlement of one or more of these lawsuits could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, liquidity and results of operations. Even if these lawsuits are not resolved against us, the uncertainty and expense associated with unresolved lawsuits could seriously harm our business, financial condition and reputation. Litigation is costly, time-consuming and disruptive to normal business operations. The costs of defending these lawsuits have been significant, will continue to be costly and may not be covered by our insurance policies. The defense of these lawsuits could also result in continued diversion of our management's time and attention away from business operations, which could harm our business. For additional discussion regarding litigation, see the "Legal Proceedings" portion of this Annual Report.
We may be subject to environmental liabilities which could increase our expenses and harm our operating results.
We are subject to various federal, state and foreign laws and regulations governing the environment, including those governing pollution and protection of human health and the environment and, recently, those restricting the presence of certain substances in electronic products and holding producers of those products financially responsible for the collection, treatment, recycling and disposal of certain products. Such laws and regulations have been passed in several jurisdictions in which we operate, are often complex and are subject to frequent changes. We will need to ensure that we comply with such laws and regulations as they are enacted, as well as all environmental laws and regulations,
and as appropriate or required, that our component suppliers also comply with such laws and regulations. If we fail to comply with such laws, we could face sanctions for such noncompliance, and our customers may refuse to purchase our products, which would have a materially adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
With respect to compliance with environmental laws and regulations in general, we have incurred and in the future could incur substantial costs for the cleanup of contaminated properties, either those we own or operate or to which we have sent wastes in the past, or to comply with such environmental laws and regulations. Additionally, we could be subject to disruptions to our operations and logistics as a result of such clean-up or compliance obligations. If we were found to be in violation of these laws, we could be subject to governmental fines and liability for damages resulting from such violations. If we have to make significant capital expenditures to comply with environmental laws, or if we are subject to significant expenditures in connection with a violation of these laws, our financial condition or operating results could be materially adversely impacted.
We are subject to provisions of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act that could subject us to additional costs and liabilities.
We are subject to the SEC rules implementing the requirements of Section 1502 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act which establish disclosure and reporting requirements for companies who use "conflict" minerals mined from the Democratic Republic of Congo and adjoining countries in their products. Complying with the disclosure requirements will require substantial diligence efforts to determine the source of any conflict minerals used in our products and may require third-party auditing of our diligence process. These efforts may require internal resources that would otherwise be directed towards operational activities.
Since our supply chain is complex, we may face reputational challenges if we are unable to sufficiently verify the origins of the conflict minerals used in our products. Additionally, if we are unable to satisfy those customers who require that all of the components of our products are certified as conflict free, they may choose a competitor's products which could materially impact our financial condition and operating results.
Certain provisions in our charter and under Delaware laws could hinder a takeover attempt.
We are subject to the provisions of Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law prohibiting, under some circumstances, publicly-held Delaware corporations from engaging in business combinations with some stockholders for a specified period of time without the approval of the holders of substantially all of our outstanding voting stock. Such provisions could delay or impede the removal of incumbent directors and could make more difficult a merger, tender offer or proxy contest involving us, even if such events could be beneficial, in the short-term, to the interests of the stockholders. In addition, such provisions could limit the price that some investors might be willing to pay in the future for shares of our common stock. Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws contain provisions providing for the limitations of liability and indemnification of our directors and officers, allowing vacancies on our board of directors to be filled by the vote of a majority of the remaining directors, granting our board of directors the authority to establish additional series of preferred stock and to designate the rights, preferences and privileges of such shares (commonly known as "blank check preferred") and providing that our stockholders can take action only at a duly called annual or special meeting of stockholders, which may only be called by the Chairman of the board, the Chief Executive Officer or the board of directors. These provisions may also have the effect of deterring hostile takeovers or delaying changes in control or change in our management.

JDSU test and measurement customers also include chip and infrastructure vendors, storage-device manufacturers, storage-network and switch vendors, and deployed private enterprise customers. Storage-segment customers include Brocade, Cisco Systems and EMC.
During the first quarter of fiscal 2013, we acquired GenComm Co., Ltd. ("GenComm"), a provider of test and measurement solutions for troubleshooting, installation and maintenance of wireless base stations and repeaters. During the third quarter of fiscal 2013, we acquired Arieso Limited ("Arieso"), a leading provider of location-aware software solutions that allow mobile network operators to improve the subscriber experience. Also, during the third quarter of fiscal 2013, we approved a strategic plan to exit the legacy low-speed wireline product line, which resulted in a $2.2 million charge for accelerated amortization of related intangibles of which $1.8 million and $0.4 million is included in Amortization of acquired technologies and Amortization of other intangibles in the Consolidated Statement of Operations, respectively. In addition, we incurred $11.3 million of inventory related charges included in Cost of sales in the Consolidated Statement of Operations primarily related to the write-off of inventory no longer being sold due to the legacy low-speed wireline product line exit.
Moving forward in fiscal 2014, we will refer to our CommTest business segment by a new name, Network and Service Enablement ("NSE"). The name NSE more accurately reflects the value we bring to our customers and the evolution of our product portfolio, one that includes but goes beyond communications test instruments by offering enhanced visibility across the network and up and down the network stack, including service and application performance.
Communications and Commercial Optical Products
CCOP is a leading provider of optical communications and commercial laser products and technologies and commercial laser components.

OSP also supplies anti-reflection coatings, beamsplitters, optical filters, laser optics, solar reflectors, and mirrors for a variety of defense and security applications including guidance systems, high-energy laser systems, battlefield eye protection, infrared night-vision systems, and secure optical communications.
OSP serves customers such as 3M, Barco, Kingston, Lockheed Martin, Northrup Grumman, Pan Pacific, Seiko Epson, and SICPA.
During the second quarter of fiscal 2013, we completed the sale of our hologram business ("Hologram Business"), which primarily addressed the transaction card market. We have presented our current and historical Consolidated Statements of Operations and segment financials to reflect the sale of this business. The historical results of this business are reflected as discontinued operations in accordance with the authoritative guidance under U.S. GAAP and are not included in our quarterly results from continuing operations for all periods presented. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013, we made a decision to cease production of certain legacy custom optic products at the end of their lifecycle, including anti-reflection products, solar cell covers, and front-surface mirrors for display and office automation applications as well as certain infrared and box coater solutions. We expect to substantially phase out production of these solutions by the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2014.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued authoritative guidance that requires an entity to present an unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward, except as follows. To the extent a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward is not available at the reporting date under the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction to settle any additional income taxes that would result from the disallowance of a tax position or the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction does not require the entity to use, and the entity does not intend to use, the deferred tax asset for such purpose, the unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a liability and should not be combined with deferred tax assets. This guidance is effective for us in the first quarter of fiscal 2015. We do not anticipate that the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In March 2013, the FASB issued authoritative guidance that resolves the diversity in practice regarding the release into net income of the cumulative translation adjustment upon derecognition of a subsidiary or group of assets within a foreign entity. This guidance will be effective for us beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2015. We do not anticipate that the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements, absent any material transactions involving the derecognition of subsidiaries or groups of assets within a foreign entity.
In December 2011, the FASB issued authoritative guidance that requires an entity to disclose information about offsetting and related arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. In January 2013, the FASB issued authoritative guidance to clarify the scope of the guidance issued in December 2011. Specifically, the scope is specified to apply only to derivatives, repurchase agreements and reverse purchase agreements, and securities borrowing and securities lending transactions that are either offset in accordance with specific criteria contained in the authoritative guidance or subject to a master netting arrangement or similar agreement. This guidance will be effective for us beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2014. We do not anticipate that the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on its financial statement disclosures, absent any material transactions that fall within the scope of this authoritative guidance.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, net revenue and expenses, and the related disclosures. We base our estimates on historical experience, our knowledge of economic and market factors and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Estimates and judgments used in the preparation of our financial statements are, by their nature, uncertain and unpredictable, and depend upon, among other things, many factors outside of our control, such as demand for our products and economic conditions. Accordingly, our estimates and judgments may prove to be incorrect and actual results may differ from these estimates under different estimates, assumptions or conditions. We believe the following critical accounting policies are affected by significant estimates, assumptions and judgments used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements:
Revenue Recognition
We recognize revenue when it is realized or realizable and earned. We consider revenue realized or realizable and earned when there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement, delivery has occurred,
the sales price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. Delivery does not occur until products have been shipped or services have been provided, risk of loss has transferred and in cases where formal acceptance is required, customer acceptance has been obtained or customer acceptance provisions have lapsed. In situations where a formal acceptance is required but the acceptance only relates to whether the product meets its published specifications, revenue is recognized upon shipment provided all other revenue recognition criteria are met. The sales price is not considered to be fixed or determinable until all contingencies related to the sale have been resolved.
We reduce revenue for rebates and other similar allowances. Revenue is recognized only if these estimates can be reliably determined. Our estimates are based on historical results taking into consideration the type of customer, the type of transaction and the specifics of each arrangement.
In addition to the aforementioned general policies, the following are the specific revenue recognition policies for multiple-element arrangements and for each major category of revenue.
Multiple-Element Arrangements
In October 2009, the FASB issued authoritative guidance that applies to arrangements with multiple deliverables. The guidance eliminates the residual method of revenue recognition, on non-software arrangements, and allows the use of management's best estimate of selling price ("BESP") for individual elements of an arrangement when vendor-specific objective evidence ("VSOE") or third-party evidence ("TPE") is unavailable. In addition, the FASB issued authoritative guidance which removes non-software components of tangible products and certain software components of tangible products from the scope of existing software revenue guidance, resulting in the recognition of revenue similar to that for other tangible products. We adopted these standards at the beginning of our first quarter of fiscal 2011 on a prospective basis for applicable transactions originating or materially modified on or after July 3, 2010.
When a sales arrangement contains multiple deliverables, such as sales of products that include services, the multiple deliverables are evaluated to determine whether there are one or more units of accounting. Where there is more than one unit of accounting, then the entire fee from the arrangement is allocated to each unit of accounting based on the relative selling price. Under this approach, the selling price of a unit of accounting is determined by using a selling price hierarchy which requires the use of VSOE of fair value if available, TPE if VSOE is not available, or BESP if neither VSOE nor TPE is available. Revenue is recognized when the revenue recognition criteria for each unit of accounting are met.
We establish VSOE of selling price using the price charged for a deliverable when sold separately and, in remote circumstances, using the price established by management having the relevant authority. TPE of selling price is established by evaluating similar and interchangeable competitor goods or services in sales to similarly situated customers. When VSOE or TPE are not available then we use BESP. Generally, we are not able to determine TPE because our product strategy differs from that of others in our markets, and the extent of customization varies among comparable products or services from our peers. We establish BESP using historical selling price trends and considering multiple factors including, but not limited to geographies, market conditions, competitive landscape, internal costs, gross margin objectives, and pricing practices. When determining BESP, we apply significant judgment in establishing pricing strategies and evaluating market conditions and product lifecycles.
The determination of BESP is made through consultation with and approval by the Segment management. Segment management may modify or develop new pricing practices and strategies in the future. As these pricing strategies evolve, we may modify our pricing practices in the future, which may result in changes in BESP. The aforementioned factors may result in a different allocation of revenue
to the deliverables in multiple element arrangements from the current fiscal quarter, which may change the pattern and timing of revenue recognition for these elements but will not change the total revenue recognized for the arrangement.
To the extent that a deliverable(s) in a multiple-element arrangement is subject to specific guidance (for example, software that is subject to the authoritative guidance on software revenue recognition) we allocate the fair value of the units of accounting using relative selling price and that unit of accounting is accounted for in accordance with the specific guidance. Some of our product offerings include hardware that are integrated with or sold with software that delivers the functionality of the equipment. We believe that this equipment is not considered software related and would therefore be excluded from the scope of the authoritative guidance on software revenue recognition.
If the transactions entered into are materially modified on or after July 3, 2010 were subject to the previous accounting guidance, the reported net revenue amount during the year ended July 2, 2011, would decrease by approximately $7 million.
Hardware
Revenue from hardware sales is recognized when the product is shipped to the customer and when there are no unfulfilled company obligations that affect the customer's final acceptance of the arrangement. Any cost of warranties and remaining obligations that are inconsequential or perfunctory are accrued when the corresponding revenue is recognized.
Services
Revenue from services and system maintenance is typically recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the contract. Revenue from time and material contracts is recognized at the contractual rates as labor hours are delivered and direct expenses are incurred. Revenue related to extended warranty and product maintenance contracts is deferred and recognized on a straight-line basis over the delivery period. We also generate service revenue from hardware repairs and calibration which is recognized as revenue upon completion of the service.
Software
Our software arrangements generally consist of a perpetual license fee and Post-Contract Support ("PCS"). Generally we have established VSOE of fair value for PCS contracts based on the renewal rate or the bell curve methodology. Revenue from maintenance, unspecified upgrades and technical support is recognized over the period such items are delivered. In multiple-element revenue arrangements that include software, software related and non-software-related elements are accounted for in accordance with the following policies.
•Non software and software related products are bifurcated based on a relative selling price
•Software related products are separated into units of accounting if all of the following criteria are met:
•The functionality of the delivered element(s) is not dependent on the undelivered element(s).
•There is VSOE of fair value of the undelivered element(s).
•Delivery of the delivered element(s) represents the culmination of the earnings process for that element(s).
If these criteria are not met, the software revenue is deferred until the earlier of when such criteria are met or when the last undelivered element is delivered. If there is VSOE of the undelivered item(s) but no such evidence for the delivered item(s), the residual method is used to allocate the arrangement consideration. Under the residual method, the amount of consideration allocated to the delivered item(s) equals the total arrangement consideration less the aggregate VSOE of the undelivered elements. In cases where VSOE is not established for PCS, revenue is recognized ratably over the PCS period after all software deliverables have been made and the only undelivered item is PCS.
Allowances for Doubtful Accounts
We perform credit evaluations of our customers' financial condition. We maintain allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of our customers to make required payments. We record our bad debt expenses as SG&A expenses. When we become aware that a specific customer is unable to meet its financial obligations to us, for example, as a result of bankruptcy or deterioration in the customer's operating results or financial position, we record a specific allowance to reflect the level of credit risk in the customer's outstanding receivable balance. In addition, we record additional allowances based on certain percentages of our aged receivable balances. These percentages are determined by a variety of factors including, but not limited to, current economic trends, historical payment and bad debt write-off experience. We are not able to predict changes in the financial condition of our customers, and if circumstances related to our customers deteriorate, our estimates of the recoverability of our trade receivables could be materially affected and we may be required to record additional allowances. Alternatively, if we provide more allowances than we need, we may reverse a portion of such provisions in future periods based on our actual collection experience.
Stock-based Compensation
We estimate the fair value of stock options with service conditions and employee stock purchase plan awards ("ESPP") using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model and a single option award approach. This option-pricing model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the award's expected life and the price volatility of the underlying stock. The expected stock price volatility assumption is determined using a combination of historical and implied volatility of our common stock. We use the Lattice model to estimate the fair value of certain performance-based options with market conditions ("market-condition options"). The fair value of the time-based Full Value Awards is based on the closing market price of our common stock on the date of award. We use a Monte Carlo simulation to estimate the fair value of certain performance-based Full Value Awards with market conditions ("MSUs").
Pursuant to the authoritative guidance, we are required to estimate the expected forfeiture rate and only recognize expense for those shares expected to vest. When estimating forfeitures, we consider voluntary termination behavior as well as future workforce reduction programs. Estimated forfeiture is trued up to actual forfeiture as the equity awards vest. The total fair value of the equity awards, net of forfeiture, is recorded on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods of the awards, which is generally the vesting period, except for performance-based Full Value Awards and options with market conditions which are amortized based upon a graded vesting method.
Investments
Our investments in debt securities and marketable equity securities are primarily classified as available-for-sale investments or trading securities and are recorded at fair value. The cost of securities sold is based on the specific identification method. Unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale
investments, net of tax, are reported as a separate component of our Consolidated Statements of Stockholders' Equity. Unrealized gains or losses on trading securities resulting from changes in fair value are recognized currently in earnings. Our short-term investments include securities with stated maturities of longer than twelve months which are classified as current assets as they are highly liquid and available to support current operations.
We periodically review our investments for impairment. If a debt security's market value is below amortized cost and we either intend to sell the security or it is more likely than not that we will be required to sell the security before its anticipated recovery, we record an other-than-temporary impairment charge to investment income (loss) for the entire amount of the impairment; if a debt security's market value is below amortized cost and we do not expect to recover the entire amortized cost of the security, we separate the other-than-temporary impairment into the portion of the loss related to credit factors, or the credit loss portion, and the portion of the loss that is not related to credit factors, or the non-credit loss portion. The credit loss portion is the difference between the amortized cost of the security and our best estimate of the present value of the cash flows expected to be collected from the debt security. The non-credit loss portion is the residual amount of the other-than-temporary impairment. The credit loss portion is recorded as a charge to income (loss), and the non-credit loss portion is recorded as a separate component of our Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss).
Inventory Valuation
We assess the value of our inventory on a quarterly basis and write-down those inventories which are obsolete or in excess of our forecasted usage to their estimated realizable value. Our estimates of realizable value are based upon our analysis and assumptions including, but not limited to, forecasted sales levels by product, expected product lifecycle, product development plans and future demand requirements. Our product line management personnel play a key role in our excess review process by providing updated sales forecasts, managing product rollovers and working with manufacturing to maximize recovery of excess inventory. If actual market conditions are less favorable than our forecasts or actual demand from our customers is lower than our estimates, we may be required to record additional inventory write-downs. If actual market conditions are more favorable than anticipated, inventory previously written down may be sold, resulting in lower cost of sales and higher income from operations than expected in that period.
Goodwill Valuation
We test goodwill for possible impairment on an annual basis in our fourth quarter and at any other time if events occur or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of goodwill may not be recoverable. Circumstances that could trigger an impairment test include, but are not limited to: a significant adverse change in the business climate or legal factors; an adverse action or assessment by a regulator; change in customer, target market and strategy; unanticipated competition; loss of key personnel; or the likelihood that a reporting unit or significant portion of a reporting unit will be sold or otherwise disposed.
To simplify testing goodwill for impairment, the authoritative guidance allows an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform the two-step quantitative goodwill impairment test. If an entity determines that as a result of the qualitative assessment that it is more likely than not (i.e. >50% likelihood) that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then the quantitative test is required. Otherwise, no further testing is required.
Application of the goodwill impairment test requires judgments, including: identification of the reporting units; assigning assets and liabilities to reporting units; assigning goodwill to reporting units; a
qualitative assessment to determine whether there are any impairment indicators; determining the fair value of each reporting unit; forecasting of future operating results used in the preparation of the estimated future cash flows, including forecasted revenues and costs, timing of overall market growth and our percentage of that market, discount rates and growth rates in terminal values.
We base our estimates on historical experience and on various assumptions about the future that we believe are reasonable based on available information. Unanticipated events and circumstances may occur that affect the accuracy of our assumptions, estimates and judgments. For example, if the price of our common stock were to significantly decrease combined with other adverse changes in market conditions, thus indicating that the underlying fair value of our reporting units may have decreased, we might be required to reassess the value of our goodwill in the period such circumstances were identified.
Long-lived Asset Valuation (Property, Plant and Equipment and Intangible Assets)
Long-lived assets held and used
We test long-lived assets or asset groups for recoverability when events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Circumstances which could trigger a review include, but are not limited to: significant decreases in the market price of the asset; significant adverse changes in the business climate or legal factors; accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally expected for the acquisition or construction of the asset; current period cash flow or operating losses combined with a history of losses or a forecast of continuing losses associated with the use of the asset; and current expectation that the asset will more likely than not be sold or disposed of significantly before the end of its estimated useful life.
Recoverability is assessed based on the carrying amounts of the long-lived assets or asset groups and its fair value which is generally determined based on the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and the eventual disposal of the asset, as well as specific appraisals in certain instances. An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount is not recoverable and exceeds fair value.
Long-lived assets held for sale
Long-lived assets are classified as held for sale when certain criteria are met, which include: management commitment to a plan to sell the assets; the availability of the assets for immediate sale in their present condition; an active program to locate buyers and other actions to sell the assets has been initiated; whether the sale of the assets is probable and their transfer is expected to qualify for recognition as a completed sale within one year; whether the assets are being marketed at reasonable prices in relation to their fair value; and how unlikely it is that significant changes will be made to the plan to sell the assets.
We measure long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. Fair value is determined using quoted market prices or the anticipated cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate with the risk involved.
Income Taxes
In accordance with the authoritative guidance on accounting for income taxes, we recognize income taxes using an asset and liability approach. This approach requires the recognition of taxes payable or refundable for the current year and deferred tax liabilities and assets for the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in our consolidated financial statements or tax
returns. The measurement of current and deferred taxes is based on provisions of the enacted tax law and the effects of future changes in tax laws or rates are not anticipated.
The authoritative guidance provides for recognition of deferred tax assets if the realization of such deferred tax assets is more likely than not to occur. With the exception of certain international jurisdictions, we have determined that at this time it is more likely than not that deferred tax assets attributable to the remaining jurisdictions will not be realized, primarily due to uncertainties related to our ability to utilize our net operating loss carryforwards before they expire. Accordingly, we have established a valuation allowance for such deferred tax assets. If there is a change in our ability to realize our deferred tax assets, then our tax provision may decrease in the period in which we determine that realization is more likely than not.
The authoritative guidance on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an entity's financial statements and prescribes the recognition threshold and measurement attributes for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Additionally, it provides guidance on recognition, classification, and disclosure of tax positions. We are subject to income tax audits by the respective tax authorities in all of the jurisdictions in which we operate. The determination of tax liabilities in each of these jurisdictions requires the interpretation and application of complex and sometimes uncertain tax laws and regulations. We recognize liabilities based on our estimate of whether, and the extent to which, additional tax liabilities are more likely than not. If we ultimately determine that the payment of such a liability is not necessary, then we reverse the liability and recognize a tax benefit during the period in which the determination is made that the liability is no longer necessary.
The recognition and measurement of current taxes payable or refundable and deferred tax assets and liabilities requires that we make certain estimates and judgments. Changes to these estimates or a change in judgment may have a material impact on our tax provision in a future period.
Warranty Accrual
We provide reserves for the estimated costs of product warranties at the time revenue is recognized. We estimate the costs of our warranty obligations based on our historical experience of known product failure rates, use of materials to repair or replace defective products and service delivery costs incurred in correcting product failures. In addition, from time to time, specific warranty accruals may be made if unforeseen technical problems arise. Should our actual experience relative to these factors differ from our estimates, we may be required to record additional warranty reserves. Alternatively, if we provide more reserves than we need, we may reverse a portion of such provisions in future periods.
Restructuring Accrual
In accordance with authoritative guidance on accounting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities, generally costs associated with restructuring activities are recognized when they are incurred. However, in the case of leases, the expense is estimated and accrued when the property is vacated. Given the significance of, and the timing of the execution of such activities, this process is complex and involves periodic reassessments of estimates made from the time the property was vacated, including evaluating real estate market conditions for expected vacancy periods and sub-lease income. Additionally, a liability for post-employment benefits for workforce reductions related to restructuring activities is recorded when payment is probable, the amount is reasonably estimable, and the obligation relates to rights that have vested or accumulated. We continually evaluate the adequacy of the remaining liabilities under our restructuring initiatives. Although we believe that these estimates
accurately reflect the costs of our restructuring plans, actual results may differ, thereby requiring us to record additional provisions or reverse a portion of such provisions.
Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits
The funded status of our retirement-related benefit plans is recognized in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The funded status is measured as the difference between the fair value of plan assets and the benefit obligation at fiscal year end, the measurement date. For defined benefit pension plans, the benefit obligation is the projected benefit obligation ("PBO") and for the non-pension postretirement benefit plan the benefit obligation is the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation ("APBO"). The PBO represents the actuarial present value of benefits expected to be paid upon retirement. The APBO represents the actuarial present value of postretirement benefits attributed to employee services already rendered. The fair value of plan assets represents the current market value of cumulative Company contributions made to an irrevocable trust fund, held for the sole benefit of participants. Unfunded or partially funded plans, with the benefit obligation exceeding the fair value of plan assets, are aggregated and recorded as a retirement and non-pension postretirement benefit obligation equal to this excess. The current portion of the retirement-related benefit obligation represents the actuarial present value of benefits payable in the next 12 months in excess of the fair value of plan assets, measured on a plan-by-plan basis. This liability is recorded in other current liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Net periodic pension cost (income) is recorded in the Consolidated Statement of Operations and includes service cost, interest cost, expected return on plan assets, amortization of prior service cost and (gains) losses previously recognized as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income. Service cost represents the actuarial present value of participant benefits earned in the current year. Interest cost represents the time value of money cost associated with the passage of time. (Gains) losses arise as a result of differences between actual experience and assumptions or as a result of changes in actuarial assumptions. Prior service cost (credit) represents the cost of benefit improvements attributable to prior service granted in plan amendments. (Gains) losses and prior service cost (credit) not recognized as a component of net periodic pension cost (income) in the Consolidated Statement of Operations as they arise are recognized as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income in the Consolidated Balances Sheets, net of tax. Those (gains) losses and prior service cost (credit) are subsequently recognized as a component of net periodic pension period cost (income) pursuant to the recognition and amortization provisions of applicable accounting standards.
The measurement of the benefit obligation and net periodic pension cost (income) is based on our estimates and actuarial valuations provided by third-party actuaries which are approved by our management. These valuations reflect the terms of the plans and use participant-specific information such as compensation, age and years of service, as well as certain assumptions, including estimates of discount rates, expected return on plan assets, rate of compensation increases, and mortality rates. We evaluate these assumptions annually at a minimum. In estimating the expected return on plan assets, we consider historical returns on plan assets, adjusted for forward-looking considerations, inflation assumptions and the impact of the active management of the plan's invested assets.
Loss Contingencies
We are subject to the possibility of various loss contingencies arising in the ordinary course of business. We consider the likelihood of loss or impairment of an asset or the incurrence of a liability, as well as our ability to reasonably estimate the amount of loss in determining loss contingencies. An estimated loss is accrued when it is probable that an asset has been impaired or a liability has been incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. We regularly evaluate current information available to us to determine whether such accruals should be adjusted and whether new accruals are required.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The results of operations for the current period are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for future periods. The following table summarizes selected Consolidated Statements of Operations items (in millions, except for percentages):
Financial Data for Fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011
The following table summarizes selected Consolidated Statement of Operations items (in millions, except for percentages):
Net Revenue
Net revenue increased by $14.5 million, or 0.9%, during fiscal 2013 compared to fiscal 2012. This increase was primarily due to an incremental increase in volume in our CCOP segment in fiscal 2013 and the fact that fiscal 2012 reflected a reduction in CCOP net revenue of approximately $15 million due to the regional flooding in Thailand which temporarily suspended operations at one of our primary contract manufacturers, Fabrinet (the "Thailand Flooding Impact"). This was partially offset by a decline in CommTest net revenue primarily due to the exit and wind down of certain products.
CommTest net revenue decreased by $25.9 million, or 3.4%, during fiscal 2013 compared to fiscal 2012. This decrease was driven by $54.0 million of net revenue decreases primarily from our Broadband and Networking and Services product lines. These decreases were primarily due to (i) the exit of certain CPO products in the prior year, (ii) the wind down of legacy low-speed wireline products and (iii) procurement delays at a key customer. This was partially offset by $28.1 million of net revenue increases primarily from our Mobility product line driven by new products from the acquisitions of Dyaptive Systems, Inc. ("Dyaptive") and GenComm.
CCOP net revenue increased $40.6 million, or 5.8%, during fiscal 2013 compared to fiscal 2012. This increase was driven by $77.4 million of net revenue increases primarily from our Pluggables, Gesture Recognition Light Source, Modulators, and Tunables product lines. These increases were primarily due to (i) higher demand from key customers, (ii) strong demand for new products and (iii) the recovery from the Thailand Flooding Impact of fiscal 2012. This was partially offset by $36.8 million of net revenue decreases primarily from our ROADMs, Passive Components and Gas Lasers product lines, primarily due to lower demand from key customers for these products.
OSP net revenue remained relatively flat in fiscal 2013 compared to fiscal 2012, decreasing by $0.2 million, or 0.1%. This decrease was driven by $7.6 million of net revenue decreases from our Consumer and Industrial product line primarily due to lower demand for defense products as a result of reductions in government spending and reduced orders for display and 3D products. This was partially offset by $7.4 million of net revenue increases primarily from our Anti-Counterfeiting product line driven by pigment security demand.
Net revenue in fiscal 2012 decreased 6.7%, or $119.5 million, to $1,662.4 million from $1,781.9 million in fiscal 2011. The decrease was primarily due to a decline in volume in our CommTest and CCOP segments.
Net revenue decreased by $48.2 million in our CommTest segment primarily due to uncertainty in the macro-economic environment which reduced carriers' spending in North America broadly across products in the instruments product portfolio. Carriers are spending cautiously as their end customers are delaying purchases, particularly in Europe and North America. This decrease was partially offset by growth within the instruments product portfolio and the customer experience management ("CEM") product portfolio in the Asia-Pacific region. Net revenue decreased by $69.2 million in our CCOP segment. The decrease was primarily driven by a decline in volume due to reduced demand in our optical communications product portfolios arising from uncertainty in the macro-economic environment, particularly in Europe, flooding in Thailand and price reductions in line with business expectations. This decline was partially offset by an increase in volume and demand in our Pluggables and Fiber Lasers product lines. Within the optical communications product portfolio, volume declined in our gesture recognition products compared to the successful launch of these products in fiscal 2011. Volume also declined in our Circuit Packs and ROADMs product lines. During the second fiscal quarter of 2012 flooding in Thailand temporarily suspended operations of Fabrinet, one of CCOP's primary manufacturing partners, affecting net revenue by approximately $15 million. Net revenue in our OSP segment decreased $2.1 million primarily due to reduced demand for our gesture recognition products, which was partially offset by increases in our currency products.
Going forward, we expect to continue to encounter a number of industry and market risks and uncertainties that may limit our visibility, and consequently, our ability to predict future revenue, profitability and general financial performance, and that could create quarter over quarter variability in our financial measures. For example, continued economic issues in Europe have led to uncertain demand in our CommTest and optical communications product portfolios and we cannot predict when or to what extent this uncertainty will be resolved. Our revenues, profitability, and general financial performance may also be affected by: (a) strong pricing pressures, particularly within our optical communications markets, due to, among other things, a highly concentrated customer base, increasing competition, particularly from Asia-based competitors, and a general commoditization trend for certain products; (b) high product mix variability, particularly in our CCOP and CommTest markets, which affects revenue and gross profit; (c) continuing service provider seasonality, which causes demand, revenue and profitability volatility at each level of the communications industry; (d) the current trend of communication industry consolidations, which is expected to continue, that directly affects our CCOP and CommTest customer bases and adds additional risk and uncertainty to our financial and business predictability; and (e) activities related to our program of contract manufacturing transitions in our CommTest segment that present additional supply chain and product delivery disruption risks, yield and quality concerns and risk of increased cost. These risks limit our ability to predict longer-term revenue, profitability and general financial performance.
We operate primarily in three geographic regions: Americas, Europe Middle East and Africa ("EMEA") and Asia-Pacific. The following table presents net revenue by geographic regions (in millions):
Net revenue is assigned to geographic regions based on customer shipment locations. Net revenue from customers outside the Americas for the fiscal years ended 2013, 2012 and 2011 represented 50.9%, 49.9% and 51.8% of net revenue, respectively. Net revenue from customers in the Americas for the fiscal years ended 2013, 2012 and 2011 included net revenue from the United States of $630.8 million, $673.6 million and $679.1 million, respectively. We expect revenue from customers outside of North America to continue to be an important part of our overall net revenue and an increasing focus for net revenue growth opportunities.
During fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011, no single customer accounted for more than 10% of net revenue.
Gross Margin
Gross margin in fiscal 2013 decreased 1.0 percentage point to 41.4% from 42.4% in fiscal 2012. The decrease in gross margin was primarily due to (i) inventory charges and accelerated amortization of acquired developed technology related to the strategic exit of the legacy low-speed wireline product line in fiscal 2013, (ii) an increase in amortization expense of acquired developed technology primarily due to recent acquisitions and (iii) CCOP net revenue, which yields lower gross margin than our other two segments, represented a higher percentage of consolidated net revenue in fiscal 2013 compared to fiscal 2012. This was partially offset by improvements in CCOP gross margin primarily due to a more favorable product mix and improvements in yield in fiscal 2013.
Gross margin in fiscal 2012 decreased 1.7 percentage points to 42.4% from 44.1% in fiscal 2011. The decrease in gross margin was primarily due to declines in net revenue and unfavorable product mix in our CCOP and OSP segments. Net revenue decreased in our optical communications product portfolios of our CCOP segment, particularly in our gesture recognition products and Circuit Pack and ROADMs product lines, due to reductions in pricing and volume which reduced absorption of manufacturing costs and decreased operating efficiency. Additionally, our CCOP segment experienced higher production variances as a result of flooding in Thailand which temporarily suspended the operations of Fabrinet, one of CCOP's primary manufacturing partners, during the second fiscal quarter of 2012. Net revenue decreased in our gesture recognition products of our OSP segment, due to reductions in volume, which reduced absorption of manufacturing costs. Additionally, the decline in gross margin in our OSP segment was due to a decline in the pricing of certain currency products. Gross margin in our CommTest segment remained relatively flat in fiscal 2012 compared to fiscal 2011.
As discussed in more detail under "Net Revenue" above, we sell products in certain markets that are consolidating, undergoing product, architectural and business model transitions, have high customer concentrations, are highly competitive (increasingly due to Asia-Pacific-based competition), are price sensitive and/or are affected by customer seasonal and mix variant buying patterns. We expect these factors to continue to result in variability of our gross margin.
Research and Development
R&D expense increased $14.5 million, or 5.9%, in fiscal 2013 compared to the same period a year ago. This increase was driven by a $15.6 million increase in labor and benefits expense primarily due to higher headcount associated with our continued investment in product development coupled with higher variable incentive and stock-based compensation in fiscal 2013. This was partially offset by a $2.0 million decrease in facilities expense primarily due to the exit from certain sites in connection with restructuring activities in our CommTest segment in fiscal 2013.
R&D expense in fiscal 2012 increased 2.5%, or $6.0 million, to $244.0 million from $238.0 million in fiscal 2011. The increase in R&D expense was primarily due to increased investment in R&D projects to develop new product platforms and drive future growth, particularly in our CCOP segment. The increase was partially offset by reductions in our CommTest segment's R&D spending as a result of restructuring activities, reductions in headcount, and decreased variable incentive pay due to a decrease in operating income. Total R&D headcount decreased from approximately 1,450 in fiscal 2011 to 1,400 in fiscal 2012.
We believe that continuing our investments in R&D is critical to attaining our strategic objectives. We plan to continue to invest in R&D and new products that will further differentiate us in the marketplace and expect our investment in dollar terms to increase in future quarters.
Selling, General and Administrative ("SG&A")
SG&A expense increased $2.3 million, or 0.5%, in fiscal 2013 compared to fiscal 2012. This increase was primarily driven by a $15.3 million increase in labor and benefits expense primarily due to higher headcount coupled with higher compensation. This was partially offset by reductions in legal expenses primarily due to the absence in fiscal 2013 of a $7.9 million legal expense in fiscal 2012 related to a litigation settlement and $4.7 million of net decreases in various other expenses.
SG&A expense in fiscal 2012 decreased 1.7%, or $7.5 million, to $427.0 million from $434.5 million in fiscal 2011. The decrease in SG&A expense was primarily due to decreased variable incentive pay and lower sales commissions due to a decrease in net revenue and operating income, partially offset by increased investment in information technology and a litigation settlement. Please refer to "Note 17. Commitment and Contingencies" for more information on legal proceedings.
We intend to continue to focus on reducing our SG&A expense as a percentage of revenue. However, we have in the recent past experienced, and may continue to experience in the future, certain non-core expenses, such as mergers and acquisitions-related expenses and litigation expenses, which could increase our SG&A expenses and potentially impact our profitability expectations in any particular quarter.
Amortization of Intangibles
Amortization of intangibles for fiscal 2013 decreased $4.3 million, or 5.4%, to $76.0 million from $80.3 million in fiscal 2012.
Amortization of intangibles for fiscal 2012 decreased $2.5 million, or 3.0%, to $80.3 million from $82.8 million in fiscal 2011.
Restructuring and Related Charges
We continue to seek to reduce costs through targeted restructuring efforts intended to consolidate and rationalize business functions and related locations based on core competencies and cost efficiencies, to align the business in response to the market conditions. We estimate annualized cost savings of approximately $23.2 million excluding any one-time charge as a result of the restructuring activities initiated in the past year. See "Note 11. Restructuring and Related Charges" for more detail.
As of June 29, 2013, our total restructuring accrual was $16.5 million.
During the twelve months ended June 29, 2013, we recorded $19.0 million in restructuring and related charges. The charges are a combination of new and previously announced restructuring plans and are primarily the result of the following:
(i)During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013, management approved a plan to re-align certain functions related to the CCOP segment to drive organizational efficiency and enhance the product line marketing leadership. As a result, a restructuring charge of $1.2 million was recorded for severance and employee benefits for 28 employees primarily in manufacturing, R&D and SG&A functions located in the North America and Asia. As of June 29, 2013, 21 employees have been terminated and payments related to remaining severance and benefits accrual are expected to be paid by the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2014.
(ii)During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013, management approved a plan in our OSP segment to realign its operations to focus on priority markets such as Anti-Counterfeiting, Consumer and Industrial and Other offerings in government, aerospace and defense which resulted in ceasing production of certain legacy products such as anti-reflection coatings and front-surface mirrors for display and office automation applications, solar cell covers, and select infrared products that use our MAC, custom display, and some box coater production platforms which were at the end of their lifecycle. The business segment intends to phase out production of these product offerings by the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2014 and de-commission and dispose of certain production equipment as part of the plan. This will result in consolidation of manufacturing operations and office space in our site in Santa Rosa, CA and reduction of workforce by approximately 126 employees primarily in in manufacturing, R&D and SG&A functions located in the United States. As a result, a restructuring charge of $3.7 million was recorded for severance and employee benefits. As of June 29, 2013, no employees have been terminated and payments related to remaining severance and benefits accrual are expected to be paid by the end of second quarter of fiscal 2014.
(iii)During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013, management approved a plan to consolidate workspace in Germantown, Maryland and Beijing, China, primarily used by the CommTest segment. As of June 29, 2013, we have exited the affected facilities in both Germantown and Beijing under the plan. We accrued $4.2M exit costs in accordance with authoritative guidance related to lease and contract terminations. The fair value of the remaining contractual obligations, net of sublease income as of June 29, 2013 was $5.0 million. Payments related to the lease costs are expected to be paid by first quarter of fiscal 2014 and second quarter of fiscal 2021 for the facilities in Beijing and Germantown, respectively.
(iv)During the third quarter of fiscal 2013, management approved a plan to transition certain functions related to the CCOP segment to an offshore contract manufacturer to align with our continuous efforts for supply chain optimization. As a result, a restructuring charge of $0.9 million was recorded for severance and employee benefits for
44 employees primarily in manufacturing, R&D and SG&A functions located in the United States. As of June 29, 2013, 4 employees have been terminated and payments related to remaining severance and benefits accrual are expected to be paid by the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2015.
(v)During the second quarter of fiscal 2013, management approved a plan to align the Company's investment strategy in its CommTest segment with customer spending priorities in high-growth product lines such as wireless network assurance and eliminate positions in R&D, sales and operations organization that supported low-growth product lines. As a result, a restructuring charge of $3.0 million was recorded for severance and employee benefits for 63 employees primarily in manufacturing, R&D and SG&A functions located in North America, Europe and Asia. As of June 29, 2013, 53 employees have been terminated and payments related to remaining severance and benefits accrual are expected to be paid by the end of the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014.
(vi)During the first quarter of fiscal 2013, management approved a plan to terminate the CPV product line within the CCOP segment based on limited opportunities for market growth. As a result, a restructuring charge of $0.4 million was recorded for severance and employee benefits for 9 employees primarily in manufacturing, R&D and SG&A functions located in United States, Europe, and Asia. As of June 29, 2013, all 9 employees have been terminated and fully paid.
(vii)The Company also incurred restructuring and related charges from previously announced restructuring plans in fiscal 2013 on the following: (i) $4.3 million additional severance and employee benefits primarily to adjust the accrual for the CommTest Operation and Repair Outsourcing Restructuring announced during the fourth quarters of fiscal 2012 arising from 64 employees added to the original plan; (ii) $0.8 million for transfer costs and lease construction costs in CommTest as the result of the repair outsourcing initiative announced by management during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012; and (iii) $0.5 million for the exit of two leased sites in CommTest for the plan announced during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012. Payments related to the additional severance and benefits accrual in fiscal 2013 are expected to be paid by the end of the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014.
During the twelve months ended June 30, 2012, we incurred restructuring expenses of $12.5 million, of which $0.1 million was attributable to the Hologram Business and is presented in the Consolidated Statements of Operations as a component of Loss from discontinued operations, net of tax. The charges are a combination of new and previously announced restructuring plans and are primarily the result of the following:
(i)During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012, management approved the CommTest Operation and Repair Outsourcing Restructuring Plan which focuses on three areas in the CommTest segment: (1) moving the repair organization to a repair outsourcing partner; (2) reorganizing the R&D global team because of portfolio prioritization primarily in the CEM business to consolidate key platforms from several sites to single site; (3) reorganizing Global Sales to focus on strategic software growth, wireless growth, and to ensure sales account resources on the most critical global growth accounts. As a result, a restructuring charge of $4.3 million was recorded towards severance and employee benefits for 117 employees in manufacturing, R&D and SG&A functions. Payments related to the severance and benefits accrual are expected to be paid by the end of the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014.
(ii)During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012, management approved the OSP Business Consolidation plan to consolidate and re-align the various business units within its OSP segment to improve synergies. As a result, a restructuring charge of $0.8 million was
recorded towards severance and employee benefits for 17 employees primarily in manufacturing, R&D and SG&A functions. Of this $0.8 million restructuring charge, $0.1 million was attributable to the Hologram Business relating to severance and employee benefits for 1 employee and is presented in the Consolidated Statements of Operations as a component of Loss from discontinued operations, net of tax. Payments related to the severance and benefits accrual were paid off by the third quarter of fiscal 2013.
(iii)During the third quarter of fiscal 2012, management approved the CommTest Manufacturing Support Consolidation Plan to continue to consolidate its manufacturing support operations in the CommTest segment, by reducing the number of contract manufacturer locations worldwide and moving most of them to lower cost regions such as Mexico and China. As a result, a restructuring charge of $2.8 million was recorded towards severance and employee benefits for 80 employees in manufacturing, R&D and SG&A functions. Payments related to the severance and benefits accrual are expected to be paid by the first quarter of fiscal 2014.
(iv)During the second quarter of fiscal 2012, management approved the CommTest Solution Business Restructuring Plan to re-organize the CEM business of the CommTest segment to improve business efficiencies with greater focus on the mobility and video software test business, and to re-organize CommTest's global operations to reduce costs by moving towards an outsourcing model. As a result, a restructuring charge of $1.7 million was recorded towards severance and employee benefits for 57 employees in manufacturing, R&D and SG&A functions. Payments related to the remaining severance and benefits accrual were paid off by the second quarter of fiscal 2013.
(v)During the second quarter of fiscal 2012, management approved the CommTest Germantown Tower Restructuring Plan to consolidate workspace in Germantown, Maryland, primarily used by the CommTest segment. As of December 31, 2011, we have exited the workspace in Germantown under the plan. We accrued $0.6 million exit costs in accordance with authoritative guidance related to lease and contract terminations. The fair value of the remaining contractual obligations, net of sublease income as of June 30, 2012 was $0.5 million. Payments related to the lease costs are expected to be paid by the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2019.
(vi)During the first quarter of fiscal 2012, management approved the CCOP Fiscal Q1 2012 Plan to restructure certain CCOP segment functions and responsibilities to drive efficiency and segment profitability in light of current economic conditions. As a result, a restructuring charge of $1.1 million was recorded towards severance and employee benefits for 40 employees in manufacturing, R&D and SG&A functions. Payments related to the severance and benefits were paid off by the second quarter of fiscal 2012.
(vii)We also incurred restructuring and related charges from previously announced restructuring plans in fiscal 2012 on the following: (i) $0.5 million benefit arising primarily from $1.2 million benefit to adjust down the previous accrual of employee severance and benefits under CommTest Sales and Market Rebalancing Plan due to management's decision to re-locate employees and realize co-location efficiencies, offset by $0.7 million on severance and employee benefits, primarily on continued implementation of the CommTest Germany Restructuring Plan; (ii) $1.6 million for manufacturing transfer costs in the CommTest and OSP segments which were the result of the transfer of certain production processes into existing sites in the United States or to contract manufacturers; and (iii) $0.1 million charge arising primarily from $1.0 million lease termination cost under CommTest Market Rebalancing Restructuring Plan, offset by $0.9 million benefit to
adjust the accrual for previously restructured leases in the CommTest segment which were the result of our continued efforts to reduce and/or consolidate manufacturing locations.
During the twelve months ended July 2, 2011, we incurred restructuring expenses of $14.8 million. The charges are a combination of new and previously announced restructuring plans and are primarily the result of the following:
(i)During the third quarter of fiscal 2011, management approved a plan to outsource a portion of manufacturing in the OSP segment to a contract manufacturer resulting in termination of employment and manufacturing transfer costs. As a result, a restructuring charge of $1.1 million was recorded consisting of $0.4 million towards manufacturing transfer costs and $0.7 million towards severance and related employee benefits for approximately 35 employees in manufacturing operations. Payments related to the severance and benefits were paid off by the first quarter of fiscal 2012.
(ii)During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011, the Company approved the CommTest Sales Rebalancing Plan to reorganize the sales organization and one of our product portfolios in the segment to focus efforts on higher growth technologies and regions. As a result, a restructuring charge of $4.6 million was recorded towards severance and employee benefits for approximately 110 employees in manufacturing, R&D and SG&A functions. Payments related to the severance and benefits were paid off by the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012.
(iii)We also incurred restructuring and related charges from previously announced restructuring plans in fiscal 2011 on the following: (i) $1.2 million on severance and employee benefits, primarily on continued implementation of the CommTest Germany Restructuring Plan; (ii) $2.1 million for manufacturing transfer costs in the CommTest and CCOP segments which were the result of the transfer of certain production processes into existing sites in the U.S. or to contract manufacturers; and (iii) $0.4 million benefit arising primarily from $0.8 million benefit to adjust the accrual for previously restructured leases in the CommTest segment which were the result of our continued efforts to reduce and/or consolidate manufacturing locations offset by accrual for previously restructured leases.
Our restructuring and other lease exit cost obligations are net of sublease income or lease settlement estimates of approximately $5.4 million. Our ability to generate sublease income, as well as our ability to terminate lease obligations and recognize the anticipated related savings, is highly dependent upon the economic conditions, particularly commercial real estate market conditions in certain geographies, at the time we negotiate the lease termination and sublease arrangements with third parties as well as the performances by such third parties of their respective obligations. While the amount we have accrued represents the best estimate of the remaining obligations we expect to incur in connection with these plans, estimates are subject to change. Routine adjustments are required and may be required in the future as conditions and facts change through the implementation period. If adverse macroeconomic conditions continue, particularly as they pertain to the commercial real estate market, or if, for any reason, tenants under subleases fail to perform their obligations, we may be required to reduce estimated future sublease income and adjust the estimated amounts of future settlement agreements, and accordingly, increase estimated costs to exit certain facilities. Amounts related to the lease expense, net of anticipated sublease proceeds, will be paid over the respective lease terms through fiscal 2021.
Interest and Other Income (Expense), Net
Interest and other income (expense), net decreased by $16.9 million during fiscal 2013, to $4.1 million of expense from $12.8 million of income during fiscal 2012. This decrease was primarily driven by (i) a reduction in other income primarily due to the absence in 2013 of $9.4 million of insurance proceeds received in fiscal 2012 from our claims on loss associated with the Thailand flooding, (ii) $3.4 million of additional loss realized from the repurchase of $150.0 million aggregate principal amount of 1% Senior Convertible Notes at or below par during fiscal 2013 and (iii) a $2.8 million unfavorable variance in foreign exchange results in fiscal 2013 compared to fiscal 2012. This was partially offset by a $0.6 million decrease in various other expenses.
During fiscal 2012, interest and other income (expense), net increased by $7.2 million, to $12.8 million of income from $5.6 million of income in fiscal 2011. The increase was primarily due to $9.4 million of other income recorded in fiscal 2012 related to the insurance proceeds received from our claims on loss associated with the Thailand flooding. This increase was partially offset by $0.7 million loss on repurchase of convertible notes in fiscal 2012.
Interest Expense
Interest expense decreased by $9.4 million, or 34.4%, to $17.9 million from $27.3 million in fiscal 2013 compared to fiscal 2012. The decrease in interest expense during fiscal 2013 was primarily due to repurchases of $150.0 million of the aggregate principal amount of the 1% Senior Convertible Notes during the first three quarters of fiscal 2013 and the redemption of the remaining $161.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 1% Senior Convertible Notes in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013.
During fiscal 2012, interest expense increased by $1.9 million, or 7.5%, to $27.3 million from $25.4 million in fiscal 2011, primarily due to an increase in accretion of debt discount cost.
(Benefit from) Provision for Income Tax
Fiscal 2013 Tax Expense / Benefit
We recorded an income tax benefit of $103.9 million for 2013. The expected tax benefit derived by applying the federal statutory rate to our loss before income taxes for fiscal 2013 differed from the income tax benefit recorded primarily due to a net reduction in our valuation allowance related to valuation allowance releases, utilization of foreign net operating losses, and the recognition of tax credits generated during the current year.
During fiscal 2013, we determined that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets of a subsidiary in a non-U.S. jurisdiction (the "foreign subsidiary") will be realized after considering all positive and negative evidence. Prior to fiscal 2013, because of significant negative evidence including principally continued economic uncertainty in the industry in the foreign jurisdiction specifically and reorganization activity that would adversely affect the foreign subsidiary's future operations and profitability on a continuing basis in future years, we determined that it was more likely than not that the deferred tax assets would not be realized. However, during fiscal 2013, the foreign subsidiary had realized cumulative pre-tax income for the preceding three years and had forecasted future pre-tax income sufficient to realize its deferred tax assets. Upon considering the relative impact of all evidence, both negative and positive, and the weight accorded to each, we concluded that it was more likely than not that the deferred tax assets of the foreign subsidiary would be realized and that the applicable valuation allowance should be released.
Accordingly, a net deferred tax valuation allowance release of $107.9 million was recorded as an income tax benefit during the year. Our conclusion that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax
assets will be realized is strongly influenced by our forecast of the foreign subsidiary's future taxable income. We believe our forecast of the foreign subsidiary's future taxable income is reasonable; however, it is inherently uncertain. Therefore, if the foreign subsidiary realizes material unforeseen losses, then our ability to realize the deferred tax assets may become uncertain and an additional charge to increase the valuation allowance may be recorded.
In addition, during fiscal 2013 we recorded net income tax expense of $4.0 million attributable to the results of our worldwide operations.
Based on a jurisdiction by jurisdiction review of anticipated future income and due to the continued economic uncertainty in the industry, management has determined that in many of our jurisdictions, it is more likely than not that our net deferred tax assets will not be realized in those jurisdictions. During fiscal 2013, the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets decreased by $87.9 million. The decrease was primarily related to the valuation allowance release mentioned above. We are routinely subject to various federal, state and foreign audits by taxing authorities. We believe that adequate amounts have been provided for any adjustments that may result from these examinations.
Fiscal 2012 Tax Expense / Benefit
We recorded an income tax expense of $12.0 million for fiscal 2012. The expected tax benefit derived by applying the federal statutory rate to our loss before income taxes for fiscal 2012 differed from the income tax expense recorded primarily as a result of domestic and foreign losses that were not benefited due to valuation allowances.
Based on a jurisdiction by jurisdiction review of anticipated future income and due to the continued economic uncertainty in the industry, management has determined that in most of our jurisdictions, it is more likely than not that our net deferred tax assets will not be realized in those jurisdictions. During fiscal 2012, the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets increased by $25.8 million. The increase was primarily due to domestic and foreign tax net operating losses sustained during the fiscal year, offset by utilization and expiration of domestic and foreign net operating losses. We are routinely subject to various federal, state and foreign audits by taxing authorities. We believe that adequate amounts have been provided for any adjustments that may result from these examinations.
Fiscal 2011 Tax Expense / Benefit
We recorded an income tax benefit of $26.0 million for fiscal 2011. The expected tax expense derived by applying the federal statutory rate to our income before income taxes for fiscal 2011 differed from the income tax benefit recorded primarily due to a net reduction in our valuation allowance related to the valuation allowance release and utilization of domestic and foreign net operating losses.
During fiscal 2011, we determined that it is more likely than not that a portion of the deferred tax assets of a subsidiary in a non-U.S. jurisdiction (the "foreign subsidiary") will be realized after considering all positive and negative evidence. Prior to fiscal 2011, because of significant negative evidence including principally continued economic uncertainty in the industry in the foreign jurisdiction specifically and reorganization activity that would adversely affect the foreign subsidiary's future operations and profit levels on a continuing basis in future years, we determined that it was more likely than not that the deferred tax assets would not be realized. However, during fiscal 2011, the foreign subsidiary had realized cumulative pre-tax income for the preceding three years and as a result of the finalization of our reorganization plans during the year had forecasted future pre-tax income sufficient to realize a portion of its deferred tax assets prior to the expiration of its operating losses and tax
credit carryforwards. Upon considering the relative impact of all evidence, both negative and positive, and the weight accorded to each, we concluded that it was more likely than not that a portion of the deferred tax assets of the foreign subsidiary would be realized and that such portion of the valuation allowance should be released.
Accordingly, a deferred tax valuation allowance release of $34.9 million was recorded as an income tax benefit during the year. Our conclusion that it is more likely than not that a portion of such deferred tax assets will be realized is strongly influenced by our forecast of future taxable income. We believe our forecast of future taxable income is reasonable; however, it is inherently uncertain. Therefore, if we realize materially less future taxable income than forecasted or have material unforeseen losses, then our ability to generate sufficient income necessary to realize a portion of the deferred tax assets may be reduced and an additional charge to increase the valuation allowance may be recorded. Conversely, if we generate taxable income materially greater than what was forecasted, then a further release of valuation allowance may be possible.
Based on a jurisdiction by jurisdiction review of anticipated future income and due to the continued economic uncertainty in the industry, management has determined that in most of our jurisdictions, it is more likely than not that our net deferred tax assets will not be realized in those jurisdictions. During fiscal 2011, the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets decreased by $91.4 million. The decrease was primarily related to the valuation release mentioned above and the utilization and expiration of domestic and foreign net operating losses. We are routinely subject to various federal, state and foreign audits by taxing authorities. We believe that adequate amounts have been provided for any adjustments that may result from these examinations.
Discontinued Operations
During the second quarter of fiscal 2013, we completed the sale of the Hologram Business within the previous AOT reportable segment to OpSec Security Inc. and received gross proceeds of $11.5 million in cash, subject to an earn-out clause. Based on an assessment to be performed following the one-year period subsequent to the closing date (the "earn-out period"), the buyer may be required to pay up to a maximum additional amount of $4.0 million contingent on the Hologram Business exceeding a pre-determined revenue target during the earn-out period. No amount related to the earn-out clause will be recognized unless it is realized or realizable, in accordance with authoritative guidance. If any amount related to the earn-out clause meets the recognition criteria it will be included as a component of discontinued operations in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Net revenue of the Hologram Business for fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011 was $5.2 million, $19.7 million, and $22.6 million, respectively. Net loss from discontinued operations was zero, $29.5 million, and $7.1 million for fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Net loss from discontinued operation in fiscal 2012 primarily related to impairment charges on long-lived assets. There was no tax effect associated with the discontinued operation for any periods presented.
Operating Segment Information (dollars in millions)
Communications Test and Measurement
CommTest operating margin decreased 1.6 percentage points during fiscal 2013 to 11.4% from 13.0% in fiscal 2012. The decrease was primarily driven by a 3.4% decrease in net revenue as discussed above, partially offset by an improvement in gross margin primarily due to (i) a more favorable product mix as net revenue from higher margin products increased compared to fiscal 2012, particularly from new products from the acquisitions of Dyaptive and GenComm in our Mobility product line, (ii) savings obtained through restructuring activities to consolidate and rationalize business functions, and (iii) savings associated with the recent outsourcing of our repair operations and ongoing efforts to outsource manufacturing and reduce the number of contract manufacturing partners.
The decrease in CommTest net revenue fiscal 2012 and fiscal 2011 was primarily due to uncertainty in the macro-economic environment in North America within the instruments product portfolio, slightly offset by growth in the Asia-Pacific region. The decline in operating income was primarily driven by the decrease in net revenue, partially offset by reductions in SG&A and R&D expense as a result of savings obtained through our targeted restructuring activities to consolidate and rationalize business functions to achieve cost efficiencies within the CommTest segment.
Communications and Commercial Optical Products
CCOP operating margin increased 0.8 percentage points during fiscal 2013 to 11.1% from 10.3% in fiscal 2012. The increase was primarily driven by an improvement in gross margin primarily due to a more favorable product mix and improvement in yield in fiscal 2013. Also contributing to the increase in operating margin was a 5.8% increase in net revenue as discussed above. This was partially offset by an increase in R&D and SG&A expense primarily due to higher R&D headcount and increased variable incentive compensation in fiscal 2013.
The decrease in CCOP net revenue between fiscal 2012 and 2011 was due was primarily due to uncertainty in the macro-economic environment in Europe impacting our optical communications product portfolio, flooding in Thailand and price reductions in line with business expectations. Specifically, volume declined in our gesture recognition products compared to the successful launch of
these products in fiscal 2011 and in our Circuit Packs and ROADMs product lines. The decline in operating income was primarily due to decreased net revenue, paired with increased investments in R&D.
Optical Security and Performance Products
OSP operating margin increased 0.4 percentage points during fiscal 2013 to 35.6% from 35.2% in fiscal 2012. The increase was primarily driven by reductions in SG&A expense due to a one-time benefit from a litigation settlement related to an insurance claim in fiscal 2013 and due to lower labor and benefits expense. This was partially offset by (i) a decline in gross margin driven by factory underutilization and charges associated with the announced exit of certain product lines and (ii) an increase in R&D expense primarily due to spending on key innovation initiatives.
The decrease in OSP net revenue between fiscal 2012 and fiscal 2011 was primarily due reduced demand for our gesture recognition products, which was partially offset by increases in our currency products. The decline in operating income was primarily due to reduced demand in gesture recognition products and a decline in pricing for certain currency products, resulting in reduced absorption of manufacturing costs.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our cash investments are made in accordance with an investment policy approved by the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors. In general, our investment policy requires that securities purchased be rated A-1/P-1, A/A2 or better. In November, 2012, the policy was amended to allow an allocation to securities rated A-2/P-2, BBB/Baa2 or better, with such allocation not to exceed 10% of any investment portfolio. Securities that are downgraded subsequent to purchase are evaluated and may be sold or held at management's discretion. No security may have an effective maturity that exceeds 37 months, and the average duration of our holdings may not exceed 18 months. At any time, no more than 5% or $5 million (whichever is greater) of each investment portfolio may be concentrated in a single issuer other than the U.S. or sovereign governments or agencies. Our investments in debt securities and marketable equity securities are primarily classified as available-for-sale investments or trading assets and are recorded at fair value. The cost of securities sold is based on the specific identification method. Unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale investments are reported as a separate component of stockholders' equity. We did not hold any investments in auction rate securities, mortgage backed securities, collateralized debt obligations, or variable rate demand notes at June 29, 2013 and virtually all debt securities held were of investment grade (at least BBB-/Baa3). As of June 29, 2013, U.S. entities owned approximately 82.6% of our cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and restricted cash.
As of June 29, 2013, the majority of our cash investments have maturities of 90 days or less and are of high credit quality. Although we intend to hold these investments to maturity, in the event that we are required to sell any of these securities under adverse market conditions, losses could be recognized on such sales. During the twelve months ended June 29, 2013, we have not realized material investment losses but can provide no assurance that the value or the liquidity of our other investments will not be impacted by adverse conditions in the financial markets. In addition, we maintain cash balances in operating accounts that are with third party financial institutions. These balances in the U.S. may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") insurance limits. While we monitor the cash balances in our operating accounts and adjust the cash balances as appropriate, these cash balances could be impacted if the underlying financial institutions fail.
Fiscal 2013
We had a combined balance of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and restricted cash of $515.9 million at June 29, 2013, a decrease of $236.8 million from June 30, 2012. Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $120.1 million in the twelve months ended June 29, 2013, primarily due to $306.8 million used to repurchase our 1% Senior Convertible Notes, $83.2 million used for the acquisitions of business, and $65.1 million used for the purchase of property, plant and equipment, offset by net cash inflows of $110.0 million provided by the maturities, sales and purchases of investments, and cash provided by operating activities of $187.8 million.
Cash provided by operating activities was $187.8 million, resulting from our net income adjusted for non-cash items such as depreciation, amortization and stock-based compensation of $279.4 million offset by changes in operating assets and liabilities that used $91.6 million. Changes in operating assets and liabilities related primarily to an increase in net deferred taxes of $119.5 million, due to a $107.9 million non-cash release of deferred tax valuation allowances in a non-U.S. jurisdiction, a decrease in accounts payable of $16.1 million primarily due to an increase in payments prior to year end enabled by stronger operating cash flows in fiscal 2013, and a decrease in accrued payroll and related expenses of $9.4 million, offset by a decrease in accounts receivable of $39.2 million primarily driven by our collection efforts and a decrease in inventory of $27.2 million primarily due to an increase in shipments and further leveraging our contract manufacturing supply chain management.
Cash used in investing activities was $25.0 million, primarily related to cash used for the acquisitions of GenComm and Arieso of $83.2 million, and cash used for the purchase of property, plant and equipment of $65.1 million offset by net cash inflows provided by the maturities, sales and purchases of investments of $110.0 million, and net proceeds from sale of the Hologram Business of $11.2 million. Investments made during the twelve months ended June 29, 2013 included new technology, laboratory and manufacturing equipment, the set up and improvements to facilities, and upgrading information technology systems.
Cash used in financing activities was $283.8 million, primarily related to the repurchase of our 1% Senior Convertible Notes in the amount of $306.8 million, offset by proceeds from the exercise of stock options and the issuance of common stock under our employee stock purchase plan of $25.7 million.
Fiscal 2012
We had a combined balance of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and restricted cash of $752.7 million at June 30, 2012, an increase of $24.0 million from July 2, 2011. Cash and cash equivalents increased by $5.7 million in the twelve months ended June 30, 2012, primarily due to cash provided by operating activities of $119.1 million, offset by $72.2 million used for the purchases of property, plant and equipment, net cash outflows of $26.6 million used for the purchase of available-for-sale investments, $12.5 million used for the acquisition of QuantaSol and Dyaptive and $1.9 million used in financing activities.
Cash provided by operating activities was $119.1 million, resulting from our net loss adjusted for non-cash items such as depreciation, amortization, impairment of long-lived assets and stock-based compensation of $199.4 million, and changes in operating assets and liabilities that used $80.3 million related primarily to a decrease in accounts payable of $29.2 million, a decrease in accrued payroll and related expenses of $25.3 million, an increase in other current and non-current assets of $14.8 million, a decrease in accrued expenses and other current and non-current liabilities of $11.1 million, and an increase in inventories of $7.7 million, offset by a decrease in accounts receivable of $17.2 million primarily due to decrease in net revenue compared with fiscal 2011.
The $29.2 million decrease in accounts payable was primarily due to timing of purchases and payments. The $25.3 million decrease in accrued payroll and related expenses was primarily due to timing of salary and payroll tax payments and lower bonus and commission accruals. The $14.8 million increase in other current and non-current assets was primarily due to higher advances to our contract manufacturers to support future growth and increases in value-added tax receivables and prepayments of license and maintenance fees. The $11.1 million decrease in other current and non-current liabilities was mainly due to timing of invoicing and lower accrual related to contract manufacturing scrap expenses.
Cash used by investing activities was $105.7 million, primarily related to cash used for the purchase of property, plant and equipment of $72.2 million, net cash outflows used for the purchase of available-for-sale investments of $26.6 million, and cash used for the acquisition of QuantaSol and Dyaptive of $12.5 million, offset by proceeds from sale of assets of $2.1 million. Since we continue to invest in new technology, laboratory equipment, and manufacturing capacity to support revenue growth across all three segments, significant investments were made during fiscal 2012 to increase our manufacturing capacity in Asia and the U.S. and to upgrade our information technology systems.
Our financing activities used cash of $1.9 million, related to repayments of the carrying amount and reacquisition of the equity component of our 1% Senior Convertible Notes in the amount of $13.2 million, payments made on financing obligations of $11.6 million primarily related to software licenses, and payments for issuance cost of our revolving credit facility of $1.9 million, offset by proceeds from the exercise of stock options and the issuance of common stock under our employee stock purchase plan of $17.9 million and proceeds from financing obligation of $6.9 million related to the Eningen sale and leaseback transaction.
Fiscal 2011
We had a combined balance of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments and restricted cash of $728.7 million at July 2, 2011, an increase of $128.6 million from July 3, 2010. Significant inflows included $205.3 million provided by operating activities and $38.1 million from the exercise of stock options and the issuance of stock under employee stock plans. Significant outflows included $116.7 million of cash used for purchases of property, plant and equipment. Cash and cash equivalents increased by $55.2 million in fiscal 2011, primarily due to the above-referenced items offset by purchases of available-for-sale investments in excess of sales and maturities of $70.0 million.
Operating activities provided $205.3 million of cash during fiscal 2011, resulting from our net income adjusted for non-cash items such as depreciation, amortization, and various gains and losses of $288.8 million, together with changes in operating assets and liabilities that used $83.5 million related primarily to an increase in trade receivable of $52.8 million due to the increase in sales, an increase in inventories of $38.6 million, an increase in net deferred taxes of $35.6 million primarily due to a $34.9 million release of a deferred tax valuation allowance, an increase in other current and non-current assets of $9.7 million and a decrease in accrued expenses and other current and non-current liabilities of $15.0 million offset by an increase in deferred revenue of $44.1 and an increase of $9.7 million in accounts payable.
Cash used by investing activities was $188.3 million during fiscal 2011, primarily due to $116.7 million of cash used for purchases of property and equipment, $73.6 million for purchases of available-for-sale investments, net of maturities and sales of investments, offset by $3.6 million from the sale of our Fabrinet investment. Since we continue to invest in new technology, lab equipment, and manufacturing capacity to support revenue growth across all three segments, significant investments were made during fiscal 2011 to increase our manufacturing capacity in China and the United States, to
set up and /or improve facilities and purchase equipment to support our NSD business, and to upgrade our information technology systems.
Our financing activities provided cash of $31.1 million, primarily related to proceeds from the exercise of stock options and issuance of stock under employee stock plans of $38.1 million offset by the payments on financing obligations of $6.8 million.
Contractual Obligations
The following summarizes our contractual obligations at June 29, 2013, and the effect such obligations are expected to have on our liquidity and cash flow over the next five years (in millions):
(1)See "Note 17. Commitments and Contingencies" for more information.
(2)See "Note 15. Employee Benefit Plans" for more information.
(3)See "Note 5. Mergers and Acquisitions" for more information.
As of June 29, 2013, operating lease obligations of $10.2 million in connection with our restructuring and related activities were accrued in our Consolidated Balance Sheet. Operating lease obligations of $2.9 million were included in Other current liabilities and $7.3 million was accrued in Other non-current liabilities in our Consolidated Balance Sheet.
Purchase obligations represent legally-binding commitments to purchase inventory and other commitments made in the normal course of business to meet operational requirements. Of the $130.3 million of purchase obligations as of June 29, 2013, $35.2 million are related to inventory and the $95.1 million are non-inventory items.
As of June 29, 2013, our other non-current liabilities primarily relate to asset retirement obligations, pension and financing obligations which are presented in various lines in the preceding table.
As we are unable to reasonably predict the timing of settlement of liabilities related to unrecognized tax benefits including penalties and interest, the table does not include $28.1 million of such liabilities recorded on our Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 29, 2013.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements, as such term is defined in rules promulgated by the SEC, that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.
Acquisitions
As part of our strategy, we are committed to the on-going evaluation of strategic opportunities and, where appropriate, the acquisition of additional products, technologies or businesses that are complementary to, or broaden the markets for our products. We believe we strengthened our business model by expanding our addressable market, customer base, and expertise, diversifying our product portfolio, and fortifying our core businesses through acquisition as well as through organic initiatives.
In March 2013, we completed the acquisition of Arieso based in the United Kingdom. We acquired tangible and intangible assets and assumed liabilities of Arieso for a total purchase price of approximately $89.6 million in cash subject to working capital adjustments, including holdback payments of approximately $12.8 million which are reserved for potential breaches of representations and warranties. The holdback payments, minus any deductions for actual or pending claims, will be released more than one year after the closing date.
In August 2012, we completed the acquisition of GenComm based in Seoul, South Korea. We acquired tangible and intangible assets and assumed liabilities of GenComm for a total purchase price of approximately $15.2 million in cash, including holdback payments of approximately $3.8 million which are reserved for potential breaches of representations and warranties. The holdback payments, minus any deductions for actual or pending claims, will be released more than one year after the closing date.
In January 2012, we completed the acquisition of Dyaptive based in Vancouver, Canada. We acquired tangible and intangible assets and assumed liabilities of Dyaptive for a total purchase price of approximately CAD 14.9 million (USD 14.8 million) in cash, including a holdback payment of approximately CAD 2.0 million (USD 2.0 million) which is due in December 2012.
Please refer to "Note 5. Mergers and Acquisitions" of our Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
Employee Equity Incentive Plan
Our stock option and Full Value Award program is a broad-based, long-term retention program that is intended to attract and retain employees and align stockholder and employee interests. As of June 29, 2013, we had available for issuance 14.9 million shares of common stock for grant primarily under our Amended and Restated 2003 Equity Incentive Plan (the "2003 Plan") and 2005 Acquisition Equity Incentive Plan (the "2005 Plan"). The exercise price for the options is equal to the fair market value of the underlying stock at the date of grant. Options generally become exercisable over a four-year or three-year period and, if not exercised, expire from five to ten years post grant date. "Full Value Awards" refer to Restricted Stock Units ("RSUs") and Performance Units that are granted with the exercise price equal to zero and are converted to shares immediately upon vesting. These Full Value Awards are performance-based, time-based, or a combination of both and are expected to vest over one to four years. The fair value of the time-based Full Value Awards is based on the closing market price of our common stock on the date of award. Refer to "Note 14. Stock-Based Compensation" for more detail.
Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits
As a result of acquiring Acterna in August 2005 and NSD in May 2010, we sponsor pension plans for certain past and present employees in the United Kingdom ("UK") and Germany. We also are responsible for the nonpension postretirement benefit obligation of a previously acquired subsidiary. Most of these plans have been closed to new participants and no additional service costs are being accrued, except for the plans assumed during fiscal 2010 in connection with the NSD acquisition. The UK plan is partially funded and the German plans, which were initially established as "pay-as-you-go" plans, are unfunded. The authoritative guidance of pension and other postretirement benefits requires the recognition of the funded status of the pension plans and nonpension postretirement benefit plans (retirement-related benefit plans) as an asset or a liability in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The authoritative guidance also requires the recognition of changes in that funded status in the year in which they occur through the Gains and (losses) not affecting retained earnings, net of tax, and the recognition of previously unrecognized gains/(losses), prior service costs/(credits) and transition assets as a component of Accumulated gains and (losses) not affecting retained earnings in the Consolidated Statement of Stockholders' Equity. The funded status of a retirement plan is the difference between the projected benefit obligation and the fair value of its plan assets. The projected benefit obligation is the actuarial present value of all benefits attributed by the plan's benefit formula to employee service. At June 29, 2013, our pension plans were under funded by $95.4 million since the projected benefit obligation exceeded the fair value of its plan assets. Similarly, we had accrued $0.9 million related to our non-pension postretirement benefit plan.
We anticipate future annual outlays related to the German plans will approximate estimated future benefit payments. These future benefit payments have been estimated based on the same actuarial assumptions used to measure our projected benefit obligation and currently are forecasted to range between $4.3 million and $5.1 million per annum. In addition, we expect to contribute approximately $0.7 million to the UK plan during fiscal 2013.
During fiscal 2013 and fiscal 2012, we contributed GBP 0.5 million and GBP 0.3 million or approximately $0.7 million and $0.4 million, respectively, to our UK pension plan. These contributions allowed us to comply with regulatory funding requirements.
A key actuarial assumption in calculating the net periodic cost and the projected benefit obligation ("PBO") is the discount rate. Changes in the discount rate impact the interest cost component of the net periodic benefit cost calculation and PBO due to the fact that the projected benefit obligation ("PBO") is calculated on a net present value basis. Decreases in the discount rate will generally increase pre-tax cost, recognized expense and the PBO. Increases in the discount rate tend to have the opposite effect. We estimate a 50 basis point decrease or increase in the discount rate would cause a corresponding increase or decrease, respectively, in the PBO of approximately $7.7 million based upon data as of June 29, 2013.
Liquidity and Capital Resources Requirement.
Our primary liquidity and capital spending requirements over the next 12 months will be the funding of our operating activities and capital expenditures. As of June 29, 2013 our expected commitments for capital expenditures totals approximately $10.1 million. We believe that our existing cash balances, investments and availability under our revolving credit facility will be sufficient to meet our liquidity and capital spending requirements. However, there are a number of factors that could positively or negatively impact our liquidity position, including:
•global economic conditions which affect demand for our products and services and impact the financial stability of our suppliers and customers;
•changes in accounts receivable, inventory or other operating assets and liabilities which affect our working capital;
•increase in capital expenditure to support the revenue growth opportunity of our business;
•the tendency of customers to delay payments or to negotiate favorable payment term to manage their own liquidity positions;
•timing of payments to our suppliers;
•factoring or sale of accounts receivable;
•volatility in fixed income, credit, and foreign exchange markets which impact the liquidity and valuation of our investment portfolios;
•possible investments or acquisitions of complementary businesses, products or technologies;
•issuance or repurchase of debt or equity securities;
•potential funding of pension liabilities either voluntarily or as required by law or regulation, and
•compliance with covenants and other terms and conditions related to our financing arrangements.

ITEM 7A - QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Foreign Exchange Risk
We utilize foreign exchange forward contracts and other instruments, including option contracts, to hedge foreign currency risk associated with foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities, primarily certain short-term intercompany receivables and payables. Our foreign exchange forward contracts and other instruments are accounted for as derivatives whereby the fair value of the contracts are reflected as other current assets or other current liabilities and the associated gains and losses are reflected in Interest and other income (expense), net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Our hedging programs reduce, but do not eliminate, the impact of currency exchange rate movements. The gains and losses on those derivatives are expected to be offset by re-measurement gains and losses on the foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities.
The following table provides information about our foreign currency forward contracts outstanding as of June 29, 2013. The forward contracts, most with a term of less than 120 days, were transacted near month end; therefore, the fair value of the contracts is not significant.
The counterparties to these hedging transactions are creditworthy multinational banks. The risk of counterparty nonperformance associated with these contracts is not considered to be material. Notwithstanding our efforts to mitigate some foreign exchange risks, we do not hedge all of our foreign currency exposures, and there can be no assurances that our mitigating activities related to the exposures that we do hedge will adequately protect us against the risks associated with foreign currency fluctuations.
Investments
We maintain an investment portfolio in a variety of financial instruments, including, but not limited to, U.S. government and agency securities, corporate obligations, money market funds, asset-backed securities, and other investment-grade securities. The majority of these investments pay a fixed rate of interest. The securities in the investment portfolio are subject to market price risk due to changes in interest rates, perceived issuer creditworthiness, marketability, and other factors. These investments are generally classified as available-for-sale and, consequently, are recorded on our Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value with unrealized gains or losses reported as a separate component of Stockholders' equity.
Investments in both fixed-rate and floating-rate interest earning instruments carry a degree of interest rate risk. The fair market values of our fixed-rate securities decline if interest rates rise, while floating-rate securities may produce less income than expected if interest rates fall. Due in part to these factors, our future investment income may be less than expectations because of changes in interest rates or we may suffer losses in principal if we sell securities that have experienced a decline in market value because of changes in interest rates.
The following table (in millions) presents the hypothetical changes in fair value in the available-for-sale debt instruments held at June 29, 2013 that are sensitive to changes in interest rates. These instruments are not leveraged or hedged and are held for purposes other than trading. Investments in money market funds and similar investment funds that seek to maintain a constant net asset value per unit of investment are not considered to be subject to market price risk and are not included in this sensitivity analysis. The modeling technique used measures the change in fair values arising from selected potential changes in interest rates. Market changes reflect immediate hypothetical parallel shifts in the yield curve of plus or minus 50 basis points ("BPS"), 100 BPS, and 150 BPS. Beginning fair values represent the market value, excluding accrued interest and dividends at June 29, 2013.
We seek to mitigate the credit risk of our portfolio of fixed-income securities by holding only high-quality, investment-grade obligations with effective maturities of 37 months or less. We also seek to mitigate marketability risk by holding only highly liquid securities with active secondary or resale markets. However, the investments may decline in value or marketability due to changes in perceived credit quality or changes in market conditions.

ITEM 8 - FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA
ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of JDS Uniphase Corporation:
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements listed in the index appearing under Item 15(a)(1) present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of JDS Uniphase Corporation and its subsidiaries at June 29, 2013 and June 30, 2012, and the statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss), stockholders' equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 29, 2013 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of June 29, 2013, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Company's management is responsible for these financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting appearing under Item 9A. Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements and on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our integrated audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audits of the financial statements included examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.
A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1. Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Description of Business
JDS Uniphase Corporation ("JDSU") is a leading provider of communications test and measurement solutions and optical products for telecommunications service providers, cable operators, and network equipment manufacturers. JDSU technologies also enable broadband and optical innovation in many essential industries such as biomedical and environmental instrumentation, semiconductor processing, aerospace and defense, and brand protection. In addition, our optical coatings are used in visual display and decorative product differentiation applications.
Fiscal Years
The Company utilizes a 52-53 week fiscal year ending on the Saturday closest to June 30th. The Company's fiscal 2013 ended on June 29, 2013 and was a 52 week year. The Company's fiscal 2012 ended on June 30, 2012 was a 52 week year. The Company's fiscal 2011 ended on July 2, 2011 was a 52 week year.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance in accordance with U.S. GAAP and include the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Out-of-Period Adjustments
During the year ended June 29, 2013, the Company recorded out-of-period adjustments that impacted cost of sales and other income related to prior fiscal years. The impact of the out-of-period adjustments recorded by the Company resulted in a $2.5 million increase in net income during the year ended June 29, 2013. Management and the Audit Committee have concluded these errors, both individually and in aggregate, were not material to any prior year financial statements and the impact of correcting these errors in the current year is not material to the full year fiscal 2013 financial statements, accordingly the Company recorded the correction of these errors in fiscal 2013.
Discontinued Operations
During the second quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company closed the sale of its hologram business ("Hologram Business") to OpSec Security Inc. for $11.5 million in cash. The Consolidated Statements of Operations have been recast to present the Hologram Business as discontinued operations as described in "Note 19. Discontinued Operations." Unless noted otherwise, discussion in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements pertain to continuing operations.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the Company's consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, the reported amount of net revenue and expenses and the disclosure of commitments and contingencies during the reporting periods. The Company bases estimates on historical experience and on various assumptions about the future believed
JDS UNIPHASE CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-(Continued)
to be reasonable based on available information. The Company's reported financial position or results of operations may be materially different under changed conditions or when using different estimates and assumptions, particularly with respect to significant accounting policies. If estimates or assumptions differ from actual results, subsequent periods are adjusted to reflect more current information.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers highly liquid instruments such as treasury bills, commercial paper and other money market instruments with original maturities of 90 days or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents.
Restricted Cash
At June 29, 2013 and June 30, 2012, the Company's short-term restricted cash balances were $29.7 million and $31.1 million, respectively, and the Company's long-term restricted cash balances were $6.5 million and $6.6 million, respectively. They primarily include interest-bearing investments in bank certificates of deposit and money market funds which act as collateral supporting the issuance of letters of credit and performance bonds for the benefit of third parties.
Investments
The Company's investments in debt securities and marketable equity securities are primarily classified as available-for-sale investments or trading securities and are recorded at fair value. The cost of securities sold is based on the specific identification method. Unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale investments, net of tax, are reported as a separate component of stockholders' equity. Unrealized gains or losses on trading securities resulting from changes in fair value are recognized currently in earnings. The Company's short-term investments include securities with stated maturities of longer than twelve months which are classified as current assets as they are highly liquid and available to support current operations.
The Company periodically reviews these investments for impairment. If a debt security's market value is below amortized cost and the Company either intends to sell the security or it is more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the security before its anticipated recovery, the Company records an other-than-temporary impairment charge to investment income (loss) for the entire amount of the impairment; if a debt security's market value is below amortized cost and the Company does not expect to recover the entire amortized cost of the security, the Company separates the other-than-temporary impairment into the portion of the loss related to credit factors, or the credit loss portion, and the portion of the loss that is not related to credit factors, or the non-credit loss portion. The credit loss portion is the difference between the amortized cost of the security and the Company's best estimate of the present value of the cash flows expected to be collected from the debt security. The non-credit loss portion is the residual amount of the other-than-temporary impairment. The credit loss portion is recorded as a charge to income (loss), and the non-credit loss portion is recorded as a separate component of other comprehensive income (loss).
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying amounts of certain of the Company's financial instruments, including cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and deferred compensation liability, approximate fair
JDS UNIPHASE CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-(Continued)
value because of their short maturities. Fair value is defined as the exit price, or the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants as of the measurement date. There is an established hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are inputs market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability and are developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions about the factors that market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability.
Estimates of fair value of fixed-income securities are based on third party, market-based pricing sources which the Company believes to be reliable. These estimates represent the third parties' good faith opinion as to what a buyer in the marketplace would pay for a security in a current sale. For instruments that are not actively traded, estimates may be based on current treasury yields adjusted by an estimated market credit spread for the specific instrument. The fair market value of the Company's 1% Senior Convertible Notes fluctuates with interest rates and with the market price of the stock, but does not affect the carrying value of the debt on the balance sheet. Refer to the Company's "Note 10. Debts and Letters of Credit" for more detail.
Inventories
Inventory is valued at standard cost, which approximates actual cost computed on a first-in, first-out basis, not in excess of net realizable market value. The Company assesses the valuation on a quarterly basis and writes down the value for estimated excess and obsolete inventory based upon estimates of future demand, including warranty requirements.
Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed by the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives of the assets: 10 to 50 years for building and improvements, 2 to 20 years for machinery and equipment, and 2 to 5 years for furniture, fixtures, software and office equipment. Leasehold improvements are amortized by the straight-line method over the shorter of the estimated useful lives of the assets or the term of the lease.
Costs related to software acquired, developed or modified solely to meet the Company's internal requirements and for which there are no substantive plans to market are capitalized in accordance with the authoritative guidance on accounting for the costs of computer software developed or obtained for internal use. Only costs incurred after the preliminary planning stage of the project and after management has authorized and committed funds to the project are eligible for capitalization. Costs capitalized for computer software developed or obtained for internal use are included in Property, Plant and Equipment on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price of an acquired enterprise or assets over the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The Company tests for impairment of goodwill on an annual basis in the fourth quarter and at any other time when events occur or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of goodwill may not be recoverable. See "Note 8. Goodwill" for more detail.
JDS UNIPHASE CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-(Continued)
Circumstances that could trigger an impairment test include, but are not limited to: a significant adverse change in the business climate or legal factors; an adverse action or assessment by a regulator; change in customer, target market and strategy; unanticipated competition; loss of key personnel; or the likelihood that a reporting unit or significant portion of a reporting unit will be sold or otherwise disposed.
In accordance with the authoritative guidance, when assessing goodwill for impairment the Company first assesses qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform the two-step quantitative goodwill impairment test. If the result of the qualitative assessment is that it is more likely than not (i.e. > 50% likelihood) that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, then the quantitative test is required. Otherwise, no further testing is required.
Under the quantitative test, if the carrying amount of the reporting unit goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of that goodwill, an impairment loss is recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Operations as "Impairment of goodwill". Measurement of the fair value of a reporting unit is based on one or more of the following fair value measures including: amounts at which the unit as a whole could be bought or sold in a current transaction between willing parties; using present value techniques of estimated future cash flows; or using valuation techniques based on multiples of earnings or revenue, or a similar performance measure.
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets consist primarily of intellectual property acquired and purchased intangible assets. Purchased intangible assets primarily include acquired developed technologies (developed and core technology), proprietary know-how, trade secrets, trademarks and trade names, and customer base. Intangible assets are amortized using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives which is the period during which expected cash flows support the fair value of such intangible assets.
Long-lived Asset Valuation (Property, Plant and Equipment and Intangible Assets)
Long-lived assets held and used
The Company tests long-lived assets for recoverability, at the asset group level, when events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable. Circumstances which could trigger a review include, but are not limited to: significant decreases in the market price of the asset; significant adverse changes in the business climate or legal factors; accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally expected for the acquisition or construction of the asset; current period cash flow or operating losses combined with a history of losses or a forecast of continuing losses associated with the use of the asset; or current expectation that the asset will more likely than not be sold or disposed significantly before the end of its estimated useful life.
Recoverability is assessed based on the carrying amount of the asset and its fair value which is generally determined based on the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and the eventual disposal of the asset, as well as specific appraisal in certain instances.
Long-lived assets held for sale
Long-lived assets are classified as held for sale when certain criteria are met, which include: management commitment to a plan to sell the assets; the availability of the assets for immediate sale in
JDS UNIPHASE CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-(Continued)
their present condition; an active program to locate buyers and other actions to sell the assets has been initiated; whether the sale of the assets is probable and their transfer is expected to qualify for recognition as a completed sale within one year; whether the assets are being marketed at reasonable prices in relation to their fair value; and how unlikely it is that significant changes will be made to the plan to sell the assets.
The Company measures long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. Fair value is determined using quoted market prices or the anticipated cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate with the risk involved.
Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits
The funded status of the Company's retirement-related benefit plans is recognized in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The funded status is measured as the difference between the fair value of plan assets and the benefit obligation at fiscal year end, the measurement date. For defined benefit pension plans, the benefit obligation is the projected benefit obligation ("PBO") and for the nonpension postretirement benefit plan the benefit obligation is the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation ("APBO"). The PBO represents the actuarial present value of benefits expected to be paid upon retirement. The APBO represents the actuarial present value of postretirement benefits attributed to employee services already rendered. The fair value of plan assets represents the current market value of cumulative company contributions made to an irrevocable trust fund, held for the sole benefit of participants, which are invested by the trust fund. Unfunded or partially funded plans, with the benefit obligation exceeding the fair value of plan assets, are aggregated and recorded as a retirement and nonpension postretirement benefit obligation equal to this excess. The current portion of the retirement-related benefit obligation represents the actuarial present value of benefits payable in the next 12 months in excess of the fair value of plan assets, measured on a plan-by-plan basis. This liability is recorded in other current liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Net periodic pension cost (income) is recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and includes service cost, interest cost, expected return on plan assets, amortization of prior service cost and (gains) losses previously recognized as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income. Service cost represents the actuarial present value of participant benefits earned in the current year. Interest cost represents the time value of money cost associated with the passage of time. (Gains) losses arise as a result of differences between actual experience and assumptions or as a result of changes in actuarial assumptions. Prior service cost (credit) represents the cost of benefit improvements attributable to prior service granted in plan amendments. (Gains) losses and prior service cost (credit) not recognized as a component of net periodic pension cost (income) in the Consolidated Statements of Operations as they arise are recognized as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income in the Consolidated Balance Sheets, net of tax. Those (gains) losses and prior service cost (credit) are subsequently recognized as a component of net periodic pension period cost (income) pursuant to the recognition and amortization provisions of applicable accounting standards.
The measurement of the benefit obligation and net periodic pension cost (income) is based on the Company's estimates and actuarial valuations provided by third-party actuaries which are approved by the Company's management. These valuations reflect the terms of the plans and use participant-specific information such as compensation, age and years of service, as well as certain assumptions, including estimates of discount rates, expected return on plan assets, rate of compensation increases, and mortality rates. The Company evaluates these assumptions annually at a minimum. In estimating the
JDS UNIPHASE CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-(Continued)
expected return on plan assets, the Company considers historical returns on plan assets, adjusted for forward-looking considerations, inflation assumptions and the impact of the active management of the plan's invested assets.
Concentration of Credit and Other Risks
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, trade receivables and foreign currency forward contracts. The Company's cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments are held in safekeeping by large, creditworthy financial institutions. The Company invests its excess cash primarily in U.S. government and agency bonds securities, corporate securities, money market funds, asset-backed securities, and other investment-grade securities. The Company has established guidelines relative to credit ratings, diversification and maturities that seek to maintain safety and liquidity of these investments. The Company's foreign exchange derivative instruments expose the Company to credit risk to the extent that the counterparties may be unable to meet the terms of the agreements. The Company seeks to mitigate such risk by limiting its counterparties to major financial institutions and by spreading such risk across several major financial institutions. In addition, the potential risk of loss with any one counterparty resulting from such risk is monitored by the Company on an ongoing basis.
The Company performs credit evaluations of its customers' financial condition and generally does not require collateral from its customers. These evaluations require significant judgment and are based on a variety of factors including, but not limited to, current economic trends, historical payment, bad debt write-off experience, and financial review of the customer.
The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments. When the Company becomes aware that a specific customer is unable to meet its financial obligations, the Company records a specific allowance to reflect the level of credit risk in the customer's outstanding receivable balance. In addition, the Company records additional allowances based on certain percentages of aged receivable balances. These percentages take into account a variety of factors including, but not limited to, current economic trends, historical payment and bad debt write-off experience. The Company classifies bad debt expenses as selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expense.
The Company is not able to predict changes in the financial stability of its customers. Any material change in the financial status of any one or a group of customers could have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations and financial condition. Although such losses have been within management's expectations to date, there can be no assurance that such allowances will continue to be adequate. The Company has significant trade receivables concentrated in the telecommunications industry. While the Company's allowance for doubtful accounts balance is based on historical loss experience along with anticipated economic trends, unanticipated financial instability in the telecommunications industry could lead to higher than anticipated losses. No one customer accounted for greater than 10% of accounts receivables and revenue during the periods presented.
The Company generally uses a rolling twelve month forecast based on anticipated product orders, customer forecasts, product order history and backlog to determine its material requirements. Lead times for the parts and components that the Company orders vary significantly and depend on factors such as the specific supplier, contract terms and demand for a component at a given time. If the
JDS UNIPHASE CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-(Continued)
forecast does not meet actual demand, the Company may have excess or shortfalls of some materials and components, as well as excess inventory purchase commitments. The Company could experience reduced or delayed product shipments or incur additional inventory write-downs and cancellation charges or penalties, which would increase costs and could have a material adverse impact on the Company's results of operations.
Foreign Currency Forward Contracts
The Company conducts its business and sells its products directly to customers primarily in North America, Europe and Asia. In the normal course of business, the Company's financial position is routinely subject to market risks associated with foreign currency rate fluctuations due to balance sheet positions in foreign currencies. The Company evaluates foreign exchange risks and utilizes foreign currency forward contracts to reduce such risks, hedging the gains or losses generated by the remeasurement of significant foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities. The fair value of these contracts is reflected as other assets or other liabilities and the change in fair value of these foreign currency forward contracts is recorded as income or loss in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations as a component of Interest and other income (expense), net to largely offset the change in fair value of the foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities which is also recorded as a component of interest and other income (expense), net.
Foreign Currency Translation
Assets and liabilities of non-U.S. subsidiaries that operate in a local currency environment, where that local currency is the functional currency, are translated into U.S. dollars at exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date, with the resulting translation adjustments directly recorded to a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income, within Shareholder's Equity. Income and expense accounts are translated at the prior month balance sheet exchange rates, which are deemed to approximate average monthly rate. Gains and losses from re-measurement of assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the respective functional currencies are included in the Consolidated Statements of Operations as a component of Interest and other income (expense), net.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue when it is realized or realizable and earned. The Company considers revenue realized or realizable and earned when it has persuasive evidence of an arrangement, delivery has occurred, the sales price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured. Delivery does not occur until products have been shipped or services have been provided, risk of loss has transferred and in cases where formal acceptance is required, customer acceptance has been obtained or customer acceptance provisions have lapsed. In situations where a formal acceptance is required but the acceptance only relates to whether the product meets its published specifications, revenue is recognized upon shipment provided all other revenue recognition criteria are met. The sales price is not considered to be fixed or determinable until all contingencies related to the sale have been resolved.
The Company reduces revenue for rebates and other similar allowances. Revenue is recognized only if these estimates can be reliably determined. The Company's estimates are based on its historical results taking into consideration the type of customer, the type of transaction and the specifics of each arrangement.
JDS UNIPHASE CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-(Continued)
In addition to the aforementioned general policies, the following are the specific revenue recognition policies for multiple-element arrangements and for each major category of revenue.
Multiple-Element Arrangements
In October 2009, the FASB issued authoritative guidance that applies to arrangements with multiple deliverables. The guidance eliminates the residual method of revenue recognition, on non-software arrangements, and allows the use of management's best estimate of selling price ("BESP") for individual elements of an arrangement when vendor-specific objective evidence ("VSOE") or third-party evidence ("TPE") is unavailable. In addition, the FASB issued authoritative guidance which removes non-software components of tangible products and certain software components of tangible products from the scope of existing software revenue guidance, resulting in the recognition of revenue similar to that for other tangible products. The Company adopted these standards at the beginning of its first quarter of fiscal year 2011 on a prospective basis for applicable transactions originating or materially modified on or after July 3, 2010.
When a sales arrangement contains multiple deliverables, such as sales of products that include services, the multiple deliverables are evaluated to determine whether there are one or more units of accounting. Where there is more than one unit of accounting, then the entire fee from the arrangement is allocated to each unit of accounting based on the relative selling price. Under this approach, the selling price of a unit of accounting is determined by using a selling price hierarchy which requires the use of VSOE of fair value if available, TPE if VSOE is not available, or BESP if neither VSOE nor TPE is available. Revenue is recognized when the revenue recognition criteria for each unit of accounting are met.
The Company establishes VSOE of selling price using the price charged for a deliverable when sold separately and, in remote circumstances, using the price established by management having the relevant authority. TPE of selling price is established by evaluating similar and interchangeable competitor goods or services in sales to similarly situated customers. When VSOE or TPE are not available the Company then uses BESP. Generally, the Company is not able to determine TPE because its product strategy differs from that of others in our markets, and the extent of customization varies among comparable products or services from its peers. The Company establishes BESP using historical selling price trends and considering multiple factors including, but not limited to geographies, market conditions, competitive landscape, internal costs, gross margin objectives, and pricing practices. When determining BESP, the Company applies significant judgment in establishing pricing strategies and evaluating market conditions and product lifecycles.
The determination of BESP is made through consultation with and approval by the segment management. Segment management may modify or develop new pricing practices and strategies in the future. As these pricing strategies evolve, we may modify our pricing practices in the future, which may result in changes in BESP. The aforementioned factors may result in a different allocation of revenue to the deliverables in multiple element arrangements from fiscal 2011, which may change the pattern and timing of revenue recognition for these elements but will not change the total revenue recognized for the arrangement.
To the extent that a deliverable(s) in a multiple-element arrangement is subject to specific guidance (for example, software that is subject to the authoritative guidance on software revenue recognition) the Company allocates the fair value of the units of accounting using relative selling price
JDS UNIPHASE CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-(Continued)
and that unit of accounting is accounted for in accordance with the specific guidance. Some product offerings include hardware that are integrated with or sold with software that delivers the functionality of the equipment. The Company believes that this equipment is not considered software related and would therefore be excluded from the scope of the authoritative guidance on software revenue recognition.
If the transactions entered into or materially modified on or after July 3, 2010 were subject to the previous accounting guidance, the reported net revenue amount during the year ended July 2, 2011, would decrease by approximately $7 million.
Hardware
Revenue from hardware sales is recognized when the product is shipped to the customer and when there are no unfulfilled company obligations that affect the customer's final acceptance of the arrangement. Any cost of warranties and remaining obligations that are inconsequential or perfunctory are accrued when the corresponding revenue is recognized.
Services
Revenue from services and system maintenance is typically recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the contract. Revenue from time and material contracts is recognized at the contractual rates as labor hours are delivered and direct expenses are incurred. Revenue related to extended warranty and product maintenance contracts is deferred and recognized on a straight-line basis over the delivery period. The Company also generate service revenue from hardware repairs and calibration which is recognized as revenue upon completion of the service.
Software
The Company's software arrangements generally consist of a perpetual license fee and PCS. Generally the Company has established VSOE of fair value for PCS contracts based on the renewal rate or the bell curve methodology. Revenue from maintenance, unspecified upgrades and technical support is recognized over the period such items are delivered. In multiple-element revenue arrangements that include software, software related and non-software-related elements are accounted for in accordance with the following policies.
•Non-software and software related products are bifurcated based on a relative selling price
•Software related products are separated into units of accounting if all of the following criteria are met:
•The functionality of the delivered element(s) is not dependent on the undelivered element(s).
•There is VSOE of fair value of the undelivered element(s).
•Delivery of the delivered element(s) represents the culmination of the earnings process for that element(s).
If these criteria are not met, the software revenue is deferred until the earlier of when such criteria are met or when the last undelivered element is delivered. If there is VSOE of the undelivered item(s) but no such evidence for the delivered item(s), the residual method is used to allocate the
JDS UNIPHASE CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-(Continued)
arrangement consideration. Under the residual method, the amount of consideration allocated to the delivered item(s) equals the total arrangement consideration less the aggregate VSOE of the undelivered elements. In cases where VSOE is not established for PCS, revenue is recognized ratably over the PCS period after all software deliverables have been made and the only undelivered item is PCS.
Warranty
The Company provides reserves for the estimated costs of product warranties at the time revenue is recognized. It estimates the costs of its warranty obligations based on its historical experience of known product failure rates, use of materials to repair or replace defective products and service delivery costs incurred in correcting product failures. In addition, from time to time, specific warranty accruals may be made if unforeseen technical problems arise.
Shipping and Handling Costs
The Company records costs related to shipping and handling of revenue in cost of sales for all periods presented.
Advertising Expense
The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. Advertising costs totaled $0.8 million, $1.2 million and $1.4 million in fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
Research and Development ("R&D") Expense
Costs related to R&D, which primarily consists of labor and benefits, supplies, facilities, consulting, and outside service fees, are charged to expense as incurred, except as follows: capitalization of material software development costs begins when a product's technological feasibility has been established in accordance with the authoritative accounting guidance. To date, the period between achieving technological feasibility, which the Company has defined as the establishment of a working model, and which typically occurs when beta testing commences, and the general availability of such software has been very short. Accordingly, software development costs have been expensed as incurred.
Stock-Based Compensation
Stock-based compensation is measured at grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and recognized in expense over the requisite service period. The Company estimates the fair value of stock options with service conditions and employee stock purchase plan awards ("ESPP") using the Black-Scholes-Merton ("BSM") option-pricing model and a single option award approach. This option-pricing model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the award's expected life and the price volatility of the underlying stock. The expected stock price volatility assumption is determined using a combination of historical and implied volatility of the Company's common stock. The Company uses the Lattice model to estimate the fair value of certain performance-based options with market conditions ("market-condition options"). The fair value of the time-based Full Value Awards is based on the closing market price of the Company's common stock on the date of award. The Company uses the Monte Carlo simulation to estimate the fair value of certain performance-based Full Value Awards with market conditions ("MSUs").

The Company estimates the expected forfeiture rate and only recognizes expense for those shares expected to vest. When estimating forfeitures, the Company considers voluntary termination behavior as well as future workforce reduction programs. Estimated forfeiture is trued up to actual forfeiture as the equity awards vest. The total fair value of the equity awards, net of forfeiture, is recorded on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the awards, which is generally the vesting period, except for performance-based Full Value Awards and market-condition options which are amortized based upon graded vesting method.
Income Taxes
In accordance with the authoritative guidance on accounting for income taxes, the Company recognizes income taxes using an asset and liability approach. This approach requires the recognition of taxes payable or refundable for the current year and deferred tax liabilities and assets for the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in its consolidated financial statements or tax returns. The measurement of current and deferred taxes is based on provisions of the enacted tax law and the effects of future changes in tax laws or rates are not anticipated.
The authoritative guidance provides for recognition of deferred tax assets if the realization of such deferred tax assets is more likely than not to occur. With the exception of certain international jurisdictions, the Company has determined that at this time it is more likely than not that deferred tax assets attributable to the remaining jurisdictions will not be realized, primarily due to uncertainties related to its ability to utilize its net operating loss carryforwards before they expire. Accordingly, the Company has established a valuation allowance for such deferred tax assets. If there is a change in the Company's ability to realize its deferred tax assets, then its tax provision may decrease in the period in which it determines that realization is more likely than not.
The authoritative guidance on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an entity's financial statements and prescribes the recognition threshold and measurement attributes for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Additionally, it provides guidance on recognition, classification, and disclosure of tax positions. The Company is subject to income tax audits by the respective tax authorities in all of the jurisdictions in which it operates. The determination of tax liabilities in each of these jurisdictions requires the interpretation and application of complex and sometimes uncertain tax laws and regulations. The Company recognizes liabilities based on its estimate of whether, and the extent to which, additional tax liabilities are more likely than not. If the Company ultimately determines that the payment of such a liability is not necessary, then it reverses the liability and recognizes a tax benefit during the period in which the determination is made that the liability is no longer necessary.
The recognition and measurement of current taxes payable or refundable and deferred tax assets and liabilities requires that the Company make certain estimates and judgments. Changes to these estimates or a change in judgment may have a material impact on the Company's tax provision in a future period.
Restructuring Accrual
In accordance with authoritative guidance on accounting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities, generally costs associated with restructuring activities are recognized when they are incurred.
JDS UNIPHASE CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-(Continued)
However, in the case of leases, the expense is estimated and accrued when the property is vacated. Given the significance of, and the timing of the execution of such activities, this process is complex and involves periodic reassessments of estimates made from the time the property was vacated, including evaluating real estate market conditions for expected vacancy periods and sub-lease income. Additionally, a liability for post-employment benefits for workforce reductions related to restructuring activities is recorded when payment is probable, the amount is reasonably estimable, and the obligation relates to rights that have vested or accumulated. The Company continually evaluates the adequacy of the remaining liabilities under its restructuring initiatives. Although the Company believes that these estimates accurately reflect the costs of its restructuring plans, actual results may differ, thereby requiring the Company to record additional provisions or reverse a portion of such provisions.
Loss Contingencies
The Company is subject to the possibility of various loss contingencies arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company considers the likelihood of loss or impairment of an asset or the incurrence of a liability, as well as its ability to reasonably estimate the amount of loss in determining loss contingencies. An estimated loss is accrued when it is probable that an asset has been impaired or a liability has been incurred and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. The Company regularly evaluates current information available to determine whether such accruals should be adjusted and whether new accruals are required.
Asset Retirement Obligations
Asset retirement obligations ("ARO") are legal obligations associated with the retirement of long-lived assets. These liabilities are initially recorded at fair value and the related asset retirement costs are capitalized by increasing the carrying amount of the related assets by the same amount as the liability. Asset retirement costs are subsequently depreciated over the useful lives of the related assets. Subsequent to initial recognition, the Company records period-to-period changes in the ARO liability resulting from the passage of time and revisions to either the timing or the amount of the original estimate of undiscounted cash flows. The Company derecognizes ARO liabilities when the related obligations are settled. At June 29, 2013 and June 30, 2012, $0.4 million and $1.6 million of ARO was included in the Consolidated Balance Sheets in Other current liabilities and the remainder of $8.8 million and $9.2 million was included in Other non-current liabilities.
Note 2. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In July 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued authoritative guidance that requires an entity to present an unrecognized tax benefit, or a portion of an unrecognized tax benefit, in the financial statements as a reduction to a deferred tax asset for a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward, except as follows. To the extent a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward is not available at the reporting date under the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction to settle any additional income taxes that
JDS UNIPHASE CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-(Continued)
would result from the disallowance of a tax position or the tax law of the applicable jurisdiction does not require the entity to use, and the entity does not intend to use, the deferred tax asset for such purpose, the unrecognized tax benefit should be presented in the financial statements as a liability and should not be combined with deferred tax assets. This guidance is effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2015. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In March 2013, FASB issued authoritative guidance that resolves the diversity in practice regarding the release into net income of the cumulative translation adjustment upon derecognition of a subsidiary or group of assets within a foreign entity. This guidance will be effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2015. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements, absent any material transactions involving the derecognition of subsidiaries or groups of assets within a foreign entity.
In December 2011, the FASB issued authoritative guidance that requires an entity to disclose information about offsetting and related arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. In January 2013, the FASB issued authoritative guidance to clarify the scope of the guidance issued in December 2011. Specifically, the scope is specified to apply only to derivatives, repurchase agreements and reverse purchase agreements, and securities borrowing and securities lending transactions that are either offset in accordance with specific criteria contained in the authoritative guidance or subject to a master netting arrangement or similar agreement. This guidance will be effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2014. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on its financial statement disclosures, absent any material transactions that fall within the scope of this authoritative guidance.

The Company's cash and investment instruments are classified within Level 1 or Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy based on quoted prices, broker or dealer quotations, or alternative pricing sources with reasonable levels of price transparency.
•Level 1 includes financial instruments for which quoted market prices for identical instruments are available in active markets. Level 1 assets of the Company include money market funds and U.S. Treasury securities as they are traded in active markets with sufficient volume and frequency of transactions.
•Level 2 includes financial instruments for which the valuations are based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Level 2 instruments of the Company generally include certain U.S. and foreign government and agency securities, commercial paper, corporate and municipal bonds and notes, asset-backed securities, and foreign currency forward contracts. To estimate their fair value, the Company utilizes pricing models based on market data. The significant inputs for the valuation model usually include benchmark yields, reported trades, broker and dealer quotes, issuer spreads, two-sided markets, benchmark securities, bids, offers and reference data, and industry and economic events.
•Level 3 includes financial instruments for which fair value is derived from valuation based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement.

As the entire $8.3 million balance of AOT's goodwill at June 30, 2012 was attributable to the Flex reporting unit, the Company reclassified AOT's goodwill to OSP. The Company closed the sale of the Hologram Business, a component of the ASG reporting unit, during the second quarter of fiscal 2013. As there was zero goodwill attributable to the ASG reporting unit as of June 30, 2012, the sale does not impact goodwill. Refer to "Note 18. Operating Segments" and "Note 19.

The following table presents gross goodwill and accumulated impairment balances for the fiscal years ended June 29, 2013, and June 30, 2012 (in millions):
Impairment of Goodwill
The Company reviews goodwill for impairment annually during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year or more frequently if events or circumstances indicate that an impairment loss may have occurred. No triggering events were noted during the interim periods of fiscal 2013, 2012 or 2011 and thus, the Company reviewed goodwill for impairment during the fourth quarter. The Company determined that, based on its cash flow structure, organizational structure and the financial information that is provided to and reviewed by management for the period ended fiscal 2013, its reporting units are: CommTest, Optical Communications, Lasers, and OSP. For the periods ended fiscal 2012 and 2011, the Company's reporting units were: CommTest, CCOP, COPG, ASG, and Flex.
Fiscal 2013
Under the qualitative assessment of the authoritative guidance for impairment testing, the Company concluded that it was not more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting units that currently have goodwill recorded exceeded its carrying amount. In assessing the qualitative factors, the Company considered the impact of these key factors: change in industry and competitive environment, market capitalization, earnings multiples, budgeted-to-actual operating performance from prior year, and consolidated company stock price and performance etc. As such, it was not necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test at this time and hence the Company recorded no impairment charge in accordance with its annual impairment test.

and consolidated company stock price and performance etc. As such, it was not necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test at this time and hence the Company recorded no impairment charge in accordance with its annual impairment test.
Fiscal 2011
Under the first step of the authoritative guidance for impairment testing, the fair value of the reporting units was determined based on a combination of the income approach, which estimates the fair value based on the future discounted cash flows, and the market approach, which estimates the fair value based on comparable market prices. Based on the first step of the analysis, the Company determined that the fair value of each reporting unit is significantly above its carrying amount. As such, the Company was not required to perform the second step analysis on any reporting unit to determine the amount of the impairment loss. The Company recorded no impairment charge in accordance with its annual impairment test.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-(Continued)
1.0% per year and were convertible into a combination of cash and shares of the Company's common stock at a conversion price of $30.30 per share. Interest on the notes was payable semi-annually in arrears on May 15 and November 15 of each year, beginning on November 15, 2006. The stated maturity of the notes was May 15, 2026.
Upon adoption of authoritative guidance which applies to the 1% Senior Convertible Notes, the Company calculated the carrying value of the liability component at issuance as the present value of its cash flows using a discount rate of 8.1%, based on the 7-year swap rate plus credit spread as of the issuance date. The credit spread for JDSU was based on the historical average "yield to worst" rate for BB-rated issuers. The carrying value of the liability component was determined to be $266.5 million. The equity component, or debt discount, of the notes was determined to be $158.5 million. The debt discount was accreted using the effective interest rate of 8.1% over the period from issuance date through May 15, 2013 as a non-cash charge to interest expense.
The $9.1 million of costs incurred in connection with the issuance of the notes were capitalized and bifurcated into debt issuance cost of $5.7 million and equity issuance cost of $3.4 million. The debt issuance cost was amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method from issuance date through May 15, 2013.
During the first three quarters of fiscal 2013, the Company repurchased $150.0 million aggregate principal amount of the notes for $149.7 million in cash. In connection with the repurchase, a loss of $4.1 million was recognized in Interest and other income (expense), net in accordance with the authoritative guidance.
On May 15, 2013, the holders of the notes exercised their put right and required the Company to purchase an aggregate of $160.6 million principal amount of notes, and the remaining $0.4 million was redeemed by the Company before the fiscal year end.
The carrying amount of the liability component was $292.8 million as of June 30, 2012 with principal amount of $311.0 million and unamortized discount of $18.2 million; and the carrying amount of the equity component was $158.3 million as of June 30, 2012.
Based on quoted market prices as of June 30, 2012, the fair market value of the 1% Senior Convertible Notes was approximately $307.3 million. The 1% Senior Convertible Notes were classified within level 2 as they were not actively traded in markets; and the bond parity derivatives related to the convertible notes were classified within level 1 since the quoted market price for identical instrument were available in active markets. The fair value of the bond parity derivatives was approximately zero as of June 30, 2012.
The following table presents the effective interest rate and the interest expense for the contractual interest and the accretion of debt discount (in millions, except for the effective interest rate):

Revolving Credit Facility
On January 20, 2012, the Company entered into an agreement (the "Credit Agreement") for a five-year, $250.0 million revolving credit facility that matures in January 2017. The Company may elect to increase the principal amount available under the Credit Agreement by up to an additional $100 million which amount may be allocated as either an increase to the revolving loan commitments or as an add-on term loan, in each case subject to the conditions provided in the Credit Agreement. None of the lenders are currently obligated to provide such additional commitments or term loans. Borrowings under the credit facility bear an annual interest rate, at the Company's option, equal to either (i) the Alternate Base Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement) plus the applicable margin for base rate loans, which ranges between 0.75% and 2.00%, based on the Company's leverage ratio or (ii) the Adjusted LIBO Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement) plus the applicable margin for Eurocurrency loans, which ranges between 1.75% and 3.00%, based on the Company's leverage ratio. The Company is required to pay a commitment fee on the unutilized portion of the facility of between 0.25% and 0.50%, based on the Company's leverage ratio.
Obligations under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by certain wholly owned domestic subsidiaries of the Company ("the Guarantors"). The Company's obligations under the Credit Agreement have been collateralized by a pledge of substantially all assets of the Company and the Guarantors (subject to certain exclusions), full pledges of equity interests in certain domestic subsidiaries and partial pledges of equity interests in certain foreign subsidiaries. The Company has also agreed to maintain at least $200 million of cash and permitted investments in accounts which are subject to a control agreement.
The Credit Agreement contains certain affirmative and negative covenants applicable to the Company and its subsidiaries, which include, among other things, restrictions on their ability to (i) incur additional indebtedness, (ii) make certain investments, (iii) acquire other entities, (iv) dispose of assets, (v) incur liens and (vi) make certain payments including those related to dividends or repurchase of equity. The Credit Agreement also contains financial maintenance covenants, including a maximum senior secured leverage ratio, a maximum total leverage ratio, a minimum interest coverage ratio and the requirement to maintain minimum liquidity.
The $1.9 million of costs incurred in connection with the issuance of the revolving credit facility were capitalized and are being amortized to interest expense on a straight-line basis over five years based on the contractual term of the revolving credit facility. As of June 29, 2013, the unamortized portion of debt issuance cost related to the revolving credit facility was $1.3 million, and was included in Other current assets and Other non-current assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
There was no drawdown under the facility during fiscal 2013, and the outstanding balance as of June 29, 2013 is zero.
Outstanding Letters of Credit
As of June 29, 2013, the Company had 15 standby letters of credit totalling $33.5 million.

Note 11. Restructuring and Related Charges
The Company continues to take advantage of opportunities to further reduce costs through targeted restructuring events intended to consolidate its operations and rationalize the manufacturing of its products based on core competencies and cost efficiencies, together with the need to align the business in response to the market conditions. As of June 29, 2013, the Company's total restructuring accrual was $16.5 million. During the twelve months ended June 29, 2013 and June 30, 2012, the Company recorded $19.0 million and $12.5 million in restructuring and related charges, respectively. Of the $12.5 million in restructuring and related charges recorded during fiscal 2012, $0.1 million attributable to the Hologram Business is presented in the Consolidated Statements of Operations as a component of Loss from discontinued operations, net of tax. The Company's restructuring charges can include severance and benefit costs to eliminate a specified number of positions, facilities and equipment costs to vacate facilities and consolidate operations, and lease termination costs. The timing of associated cash payments is dependent upon the type of restructuring charge and can extend over multiple periods.

Note 12. Income Taxes
The Company's (loss) income before income taxes consisted of the following (in millions):
The Company's income tax (benefit) expense consisted of the following (in millions):
During fiscal 2013, the Company determined that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets of a subsidiary in a non-U.S. jurisdiction (the "foreign subsidiary") will be realized after considering all positive and negative evidence. Prior to fiscal 2013, because of significant negative evidence including principally continued economic uncertainty in the industry in the foreign jurisdiction specifically and reorganization activity that would adversely affect the foreign subsidiary's future operations and profitability on a continuing basis in future years, the Company determined that it was more likely than not that the deferred tax assets would not be realized. However, during fiscal 2013,
JDS UNIPHASE CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-(Continued)
the foreign subsidiary had realized cumulative pre-tax income for the preceding three years and had forecasted future pre-tax income sufficient to realize its deferred tax assets. Upon considering the relative impact of all evidence, both negative and positive, and the weight accorded to each, the Company concluded that it was more likely than not that the deferred tax assets of the foreign subsidiary would be realized and that the applicable valuation allowance should be released.
Accordingly, a net deferred tax valuation allowance release of $107.9 million was recorded as an income tax benefit during the year. The Company's conclusion that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be realized is strongly influenced by its forecast of the foreign subsidiary's future taxable income. The Company believes its forecast of the foreign subsidiary's future taxable income is reasonable; however, it is inherently uncertain. Therefore, if the foreign subsidiary realizes material unforeseen losses, then its ability to realize the deferred tax assets may become uncertain and an additional charge to increase the valuation allowance may be recorded.
In addition, during fiscal 2013 the Company recorded net income tax expense of $4.0 million attributable to the results of its worldwide operations.
The federal deferred tax benefit primarily relates to the other comprehensive income intraperiod tax allocation rules. The foreign current expense primarily relates to the Company's profitable operations in certain foreign jurisdictions. The foreign deferred tax benefit primarily relates to the releases of the deferred tax valuation allowance referred to above and to the amortization of foreign intangibles.
There was no material tax benefit associated with exercise of stock options for the fiscal years ended June 29, 2013, June 30, 2012 and July 2, 2011.
A reconciliation of the Company's income tax (benefit) expense at the federal statutory rate to the income tax (benefit) expense at the effective tax rate is as follows (in millions):
JDS UNIPHASE CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-(Continued)
The components of the Company's net deferred taxes consisted of the following (in millions):
As of June 29, 2013, the Company had federal, state and foreign tax net operating loss carryforwards of $5,947.0 million, $2,044.1 million and $867.0 million, respectively, and federal, state and foreign research and other tax credit carryforwards of $80.2 million, $39.8 million and $42.1 million, respectively. Of this amount, approximately $92.3 million when realized will be credited to additional paid-in capital. The Company's policy is to account for the utilization of tax attributes under a with-and-without approach. The tax net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards will expire at various dates through 2033 if not utilized. Utilization of the tax net operating losses may be subject to a substantial annual limitation due to the ownership change limitations provided by the Internal Revenue Code and similar state and foreign provisions. Loss carryforward limitations may result in the expiration or reduced utilization of a portion of the Company's net operating losses.
U.S. income and foreign withholding taxes associated with the repatriation of earnings of foreign subsidiaries have not been provided on $217.9 million of undistributed earnings for certain foreign subsidiaries. The Company intends to reinvest these earnings indefinitely outside of the United States. The Company estimates that an additional $9.8 million of U.S. income or foreign withholding taxes would have to be provided if these earnings were repatriated back to the U.S.
The valuation allowance decreased by $87.9 million in fiscal 2013, increased by $25.8 million in fiscal 2012, and decreased by $91.4 million in fiscal 2011. The decrease during fiscal 2013 was primarily due to the release of the deferred tax valuation allowance for non-U.S. jurisdictions. The increase during fiscal 2012 was primarily due to increases in domestic and foreign tax net operating losses sustained during the year, offset by utilization and expiration of domestic and foreign net operating losses. The decrease during fiscal 2011 was primarily due to release of the deferred tax valuation
JDS UNIPHASE CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-(Continued)
allowance for a non-U.S. jurisdiction and the utilization and expiration of domestic and foreign net operating losses.
Approximately $514.7 million of the valuation allowance as of June 29, 2013 was attributable to pre-fiscal 2006 windfall stock option deductions, the benefit of which will be credited to paid-in-capital if and when realized through a reduction in income tax payable. Beginning with fiscal 2006, the Company began to track the windfall stock option deductions off-balance sheet. If and when realized, the tax benefit associated with those deductions will be credited to additional paid-in-capital.
During fiscal 2011, the Company determined that it is more likely than not that a portion of the deferred tax assets of a subsidiary in a non-U.S. jurisdiction (the "foreign subsidiary") will be realized after considering all positive and negative evidence. Prior to fiscal 2011, because of significant negative evidence including principally continued economic uncertainty in the industry in the foreign jurisdiction specifically and reorganization activity that would adversely affect the foreign subsidiary's future operations and profit levels on a continuing basis in future years, the Company determined that it was more likely than not that the deferred tax assets would not be realized. However, during fiscal 2011, the foreign subsidiary had realized cumulative pre-tax income for the preceding three years and as a result of the finalization of the Company's reorganization plans during the year had forecasted future pre-tax income sufficient to realize a portion of its deferred tax assets prior to the expiration of its operating losses and tax credit carryforwards. Upon considering the relative impact of all evidence, both negative and positive, and the weight accorded to each, the Company concluded that it was more likely than not that a portion of the deferred tax assets of the foreign subsidiary would be realized and that such portion of the valuation allowance should be released.
Accordingly, a deferred tax valuation allowance release of $34.9 million was recorded as an income tax benefit during the year. The Company's conclusion that it is more likely than not that a portion of such deferred tax assets will be realized is strongly influenced by its forecast of future taxable income. The Company believes its forecast of future taxable income is reasonable; however, it is inherently uncertain. Therefore, if the Company realizes materially less future taxable income than forecasted or has material unforeseen losses, then its ability to generate sufficient income necessary to realize a portion of the deferred tax assets may be reduced and an additional charge to increase the valuation allowance may be recorded. Conversely, if the Company generates taxable income materially greater than what was forecasted, then a further release of valuation allowance may be possible.

A reconciliation of unrecognized tax benefits between July 3, 2010 through June 29, 2013 is as follows (in millions):
The liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits relate primarily to the allocations of revenue and costs among the Company's global operations and the validity of some non-U.S. net operating losses. In addition, utilization of the Company's tax net operating losses may be subject to a substantial annual limitation due to the ownership change limitations provided by the Internal Revenue Code and similar state and foreign provisions. As a result, loss carryforward limitations may result in the expiration or reduced utilization of a portion of the Company's net operating losses.
Included in the balance of unrecognized tax benefits at June 29, 2013 are $24.5 million of tax benefits that, if recognized, would impact the effective tax rate. Also included in the balance of unrecognized tax benefits at June 29, 2013 are $56.2 million of tax benefits that, if recognized, would result in adjustments to the valuation allowance.
The Company's policy is to recognize accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits within the income tax provision. The amount of interest and penalties accrued as of June 29, 2013 and June 30, 2012 was approximately $24.1 million and $23.0 million, respectively. During fiscal 2013, the Company's accrued interest and penalties was increased by $1.1 million primarily because of the lapse of statute of limitations and foreign currency rate fluctuations. The unrecognized tax benefits that may be recognized during the next twelve months is approximately $ 21.3 million.

Note 13. Stockholders' Equity
Preferred Stock
In February 2003, the Company amended and restated its Stockholder Rights Agreement (the "Company Rights Agreement") and currently each share of the Company's outstanding common stock is associated with eight rights. Each right entitles stockholders to purchase 1/100,000 share of the Company's Series B Preferred Stock at an exercise price of $21.00. The rights only become exercisable in certain limited circumstances following the tenth day after a person or group announces an acquisition of or tender offers for 15% or more of the Company's common stock. For a limited period of time following the announcement of any such acquisition or offer, the rights are redeemable by the Company at a price of $0.01 per right. If the rights are not redeemed, each right will then entitle the holder to purchase common stock having the value of twice the then-current exercise price. For a limited period of time after the exercisability of the rights, each right, at the discretion of the Company's Board of Directors, may be exchanged for either 1/100,000 share of Series B Preferred Stock or one share of common stock per right. The rights expired on June 22, 2013.
The Company's Board of Directors has the authority to issue up to 499,999 shares of undesignated preferred stock (in addition to the 500,000 shares of designated Series B Preferred Stock) and to determine the powers, preferences and rights and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions granted to or imposed upon any wholly unissued shares of undesignated preferred stock and to fix the number of shares constituting any series and the designation of such series, without the consent of the Company's stockholders. The preferred stock could be issued with voting, liquidation, dividend and other rights superior to those of the holders of common stock. The issuance of Series B Preferred Stock or any preferred stock subsequently issued by the Company's Board of Directors, under some circumstances, could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control.
Exchangeable Shares of JDS Uniphase Canada Ltd.
On June 30, 1999, in connection with the merger with JDS FITEL, JDS Uniphase Canada Ltd., a subsidiary of the Company, adopted a Rights Agreement (the "Original Exchangeable Rights Agreement") substantially equivalent to the Company Rights Agreement. In February 2003, in connection with the amendment and restatement of the Company Rights Agreement, the Original Exchangeable Rights Agreement was amended and restated (as amended and restated, the "Exchangeable Rights Agreement"). Under the Exchangeable Rights Agreement, each exchangeable share issued has an associated right (an "Exchangeable Share Right") entitling the holder of such Exchangeable Share Right to acquire additional exchangeable shares on terms and conditions substantially the same as the terms and conditions upon which a holder of shares of common stock is entitled to acquire either 1/100,000 share of the Company's Series B Preferred Stock or, in certain

As of June 29, 2013, the Company had 14.6 million shares of stock options and Full Value Awards (as defined below) issued and outstanding to employees and directors under the Company's 2005 Acquisition Equity Incentive Plan (the "2005 Plan"), Amended and Restated 2003 Equity Incentive Plan (the "2003 Plan") and various other plans the Company assumed through acquisitions. The exercise price for stock options is equal to the fair value of the underlying stock at the date of grant. The Company issues new shares of common stock upon exercise of stock options. Options generally become exercisable over a three-year or four-year period and, if not exercised, expire from five to ten years after the date of grant.
On November 14, 2006, the Company's shareholders approved an amendment and restatement of the 2003 Plan, under which (1) 12,500,000 shares of Common Stock were added to the pool of shares reserved for issuance under the 2003 Plan and (2) all future grants of "Full Value Awards" (as defined below) will reduce the share reserve by one and one-half shares for each share subject to such Awards. On November 12, 2008, the Company's shareholders approved the following amendments to the 2003 Plan. The first amendment increased the number of shares that may be issued under the 2003 Plan by 12,000,000. The second amendment increased the maximum number of shares granted to any employee in any fiscal year to 1,000,000. On November 30, 2010, the Company's shareholders approved an amendment to the 2003 Plan to increase the number of shares that may be issued under this plan by 12,200,000 shares. On November 14, 2012, the Company's shareholders approved the following amendments to the 2003 Plan. The first amendment increased the number of shares that may be issued under this plan by 10,000,000 shares. The second amendment extended the 2003 Plan's terms for an additional ten year period after the date of approval of the amendment.
On August 17, 2005, the Company's Board of Directors adopted and approved the Flexible Stock Incentive-2005 Plan (the "2005 Plan"). Pursuant to Section 3(a) of the 2005 Plan, and in accordance with the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the Company registered 16.0 million shares, which have been reserved for issuance under the 2005 Plan. The adoption and approval of the 2005 Plan did not affect any of the options granted under the Flexible Stock Incentive-Amended and Restated 1993 Plan which was adopted in fiscal 1993, as amended, and currently outstanding, all of which remain exercisable in accordance with their terms. On May 2, 2010, the Company's Board of Directors approved to increase the 2005 Acquisition Equity Incentive Plan by 800,000 shares.
As of June 29, 2013, 14.9 million shares of common stock, primarily under the 2003 Plan and the 2005 Plan, were available for grant.

Employee Stock Purchase Plans
In June 1998, the Company adopted the JDS Uniphase Corporation 1998 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, as amended (the "1998 Purchase Plan"). The 1998 Purchase Plan, which became effective August 1, 1998, provides eligible employees with the opportunity to acquire an ownership interest in the Company through periodic payroll deductions and provides a discounted purchase price as well as a look-back period. The 1998 Purchase Plan is structured as a qualified employee stock purchase plan under Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. However, the 1998 Purchase Plan is not intended to be a qualified pension, profit sharing or stock bonus plan under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 and is not subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The 1998 Purchase Plan will terminate upon the earlier of August 1, 2018 or the date on which all shares available for issuance have been sold. Of the 50.0 million shares authorized to be issued under the 1998 Purchase Plan, 5.2 million shares remained available for issuance as of June 29, 2013.
Effective with the purchase period that began on February 1, 2006, the 1998 Purchase Plan was modified to provide a 5% discount and a six month look-back period. Previously, the 1998 Purchase Plan had provided a 15% discount and up to a two year look-back period.
Full Value Awards
"Full Value Awards" refer to RSUs and Performance Units that are granted with the exercise price equal to zero and are converted to shares immediately upon vesting. These Full Value Awards are performance-based, time-based, or a combination of both and expected to vest over one to four years. The fair value of the time-based Full Value Awards is based on the closing market price of the Company's common stock on the date of award.
Stock-Based Compensation
The impact on the Company's results of operations of recording stock-based compensation by function for fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011 was as follows (in millions):
Approximately $2.0 million of stock-based compensation was capitalized to inventory at June 29, 2013.
Stock Option Exchange
On November 5, 2010, the Company completed an Offer to Exchange Certain Stock Options for a Number of Restricted Stock Units, Replacement Options or Cash (the "Exchange Offer"). Pursuant to the Exchange Offer, 3,555,241 eligible stock options were tendered, representing approximately 83% of
JDS UNIPHASE CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-(Continued)
the total stock options eligible for exchange. The Company granted a total of 230,494 new RSUs and 64,763 replacement options in exchange for the eligible stock options surrendered. The grant date fair value of the new RSUs and the exercise price of the replacement options is $11.40, which was the closing price of the Company's common stock on November 5, 2010 as reported by the NASDAQ Stock Market. The Company also paid a total of $0.2 million to certain participating employees who would have received in the aggregate less than 100 RSUs or replacement options upon exchange.
The stock option exchange was accounted for as a modification of the options tendered for exchange pursuant to the authoritative guidance of stock-based compensation. Approximately $0.4 million of incremental cost, as well as approximately $0.2 million of unamortized expense related to the cancelled options will be recognized over one or two years, the modified requisite service period of the replaced awards.
Stock Option Activity
The Company granted no stock options during fiscal 2013 and 2012. The Company granted 3.6 million shares of stock options during fiscal 2011. The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the year ended June 29, 2013 was $11.5 million. In connection with these exercises, the tax benefit realized by the Company was immaterial due to the fact that the Company has no material benefit in foreign jurisdictions and a full valuation allowance on its domestic deferred tax assets.
As of June 29, 2013, $1.5 million of unrecognized stock-based compensation cost related to stock options remains to be amortized. That cost is expected to be recognized over an estimated amortization period of 1.0 years.
The following is a summary of stock option activities (amount in millions except per share amounts):

The following table summarizes significant ranges of outstanding and exercisable options as of June 29, 2013:
The aggregate intrinsic value in the table above represents the total pretax intrinsic value, based on the Company's closing stock price of $14.39 as of June 29, 2013, which would have been received by the option holders had all option holders exercised their options as of that date. The total number of in-the-money options exercisable as of June 29, 2013 was 4.2 million.
ESPP Activity
The compensation expense in connection with the Company's employee stock purchase plan for the year ended June 29, 2013 was $1.9 million. The expense related to the plan is recorded on a straight-line basis over the relevant subscription period.
The following table summarizes the shares issued and the fair market value at purchase date, pursuant to the Company's employee stock purchase plan during the year ended June 29, 2013:
As of June 29, 2013, $0.2 million of unrecognized stock-based compensation cost related to ESPP remains to be amortized. That cost is expected to be recognized through the first quarter of fiscal 2014.
Full Value Awards Activity
During fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011, the Company's Board of Directors approved the grant of 6.5 million, 5.0 million and 3.6 million Full Value Awards to the Company's Board of Directors and employees and recorded $49.4 million, $35.7 million, and $26.7 million of such compensation expenses, respectively.
As of June 29, 2013, $72.4 million of unrecognized stock-based compensation cost related to Full Value Awards remains to be amortized. That cost is expected to be recognized over an estimated amortization period of 2.1 years.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-(Continued)
A summary of the status of the Company's nonvested Full Value Awards as of June 29, 2013 and changes during the same period is presented below (amount in millions, except per share amounts):
During fiscal 2013 and 2012, the Company granted 0.7 million and 0.5 million MSUs. These MSUs shares represent the target amount of grants and the actual number of shares awarded upon vesting of the MSUs may be higher or lower depending upon the achievement of the relevant market conditions. The majority of MSUs vest in equal annual installments over three years based on the attainment of certain total shareholder return performance measures and the employee's continued service through the vest date. The aggregate grant-date fair value of MSUs granted during fiscal 2013 and 2012 was estimated to be $10.7 million and $9.3 million, respectively, and was calculated using a Monte Carlo simulation.
Full Value Awards are converted into shares upon vesting. Shares equivalent in value to the minimum withholding taxes liability on the vested shares are withheld by the Company for the payment of such taxes. During fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011, the Company paid $15.9 million, $12.8 million and $12.5 million, respectively, and classified the payments as operating cash outflows in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.
JDS UNIPHASE CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-(Continued)
Valuation Assumptions
The Company estimates the fair value of the MSUs on the date of grant using a Monte Carlo simulation with the following assumptions:
The Company estimates the fair value of the majority of stock options and ESPP using a BSM valuation model. The fair value is estimated on the date of grant using the BSM option valuation model with the following weighted-average assumptions:
Expected Term: The Company's expected term represents the period that the Company's stock-based awards are expected to be outstanding and was determined based on historical experience of similar awards, giving consideration to the contractual terms of the stock-based awards, vesting schedules and expectations of future employee behavior.
Expected Volatility: The Company determined that a combination of the implied volatility of its traded options and historical volatility of its stock price based on the expected term of the equity instrument most appropriately reflects market expectation of future volatility. Implied volatility is based on traded options of the Company's common stock with a remaining maturity of six months or greater.
Risk-Free Interest Rate: The Company bases the risk-free interest rate used in the BSM valuation method on the implied yield currently available on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with an equivalent remaining term. Where the expected term of the Company's stock-based awards do not correspond with the terms for which interest rates are quoted, the Company performed a straight-line interpolation to determine the rate from the available maturities.
Expected Dividend: The BSM valuation model calls for a single expected dividend yield as an input. The Company has not paid and does not anticipate paying any dividends in the near future.
Estimated Pre-vesting Forfeitures: When estimating forfeitures, the Company considers voluntary termination behavior as well as future workforce reduction programs. Estimated forfeiture rates are trued-up to actual forfeiture results as the stock-based awards vest.

Note 15. Employee Benefit Plans
Employee 401(k) Plans
The Company sponsors the JDS Uniphase Corporation Employee 401(k) Retirement Plan (the "401(k) Plan"), a Defined Contribution Plan under ERISA, which provides retirement benefits for its eligible employees through tax deferred salary deductions. The 401(k) Plan allows employees to contribute up to 50% of their annual compensation, with contributions limited to $17,500 in calendar year 2013 as set by the Internal Revenue Service.
Effective January 1, 2007, the Plan provided for a 100% match of employees' contributions up to the first 3% of annual compensation and 50% match on the next 2% of compensation. Effective January 1, 2009, through the remainder of fiscal 2009, there was no Company match. Effective April 2010, the Company restored employer matching contributions to all eligible participants who have completed 180 days of service with JDSU. All matching contributions are made in cash and vest immediately. The Company's matching contributions to the 401(k) Plan were $7.4 million, $7.1 million, and $7.6 million in fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
Deferred Compensation Plans
The Company also provides a non-qualified retirement plan for the benefit of certain eligible employees in the U.S. This plan is designed to permit employee deferral of a portion of salaries in excess of certain tax limits and deferral of bonuses. This plan's assets are designated as trading securities in the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets. See "Note 7. Investments and Fair Value Measurements" for more detail. Effective January 1, 2011, the Company suspended all employee contribution into the plan.
Employee Defined Benefit Plans
The Company sponsors qualified and non-qualified pension plans for certain past and present employees in the UK and Germany. The Company also is responsible for the nonpension postretirement benefit obligation of a previously acquired subsidiary. Most of the plans have been closed to new participants and no additional service costs are being accrued, except for the plans assumed during fiscal 2010 in connection with the NSD acquisition. Benefits are generally based upon years of service and compensation or stated amounts for each year of service. As of June 29, 2013 the UK plan was partially funded while the other plans were unfunded. The Company's policy for funded plans is to make contributions equal to or greater than the requirements prescribed by law or regulation. For unfunded plans, the Company pays the postretirement benefits when due. Future estimated benefit payments are summarized below. No other required contributions to defined benefit plans are expected in fiscal 2013, but the Company, at its discretion, can make contributions to one or more of the defined benefit plans.
The Company accounts for its obligations under these pension plans in accordance with authoritative guidance which requires the Company to record its obligation to the participants, as well as the corresponding net periodic cost. The Company determines its obligation to the participants and its net periodic cost principally using actuarial valuations provided by third-party actuaries. The obligation the Company records in its Consolidated Balance Sheets is reflective of the total projected benefit obligation ("PBO") and the fair value of plan assets.

The following table presents the components of the net periodic cost for the pension and benefits plans (in millions):
The Company's accumulated other comprehensive income includes unrealized net actuarial (gains)/losses. The amount expected to be recognized in net periodic benefit cost during fiscal 2014 is $0.1 million.
The changes in the benefit obligations and plan assets of the pension and benefits plans were (in millions):
JDS UNIPHASE CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-(Continued)
During fiscal 2013 and fiscal 2012, the Company contributed GBP 0.5 million and GBP 0.3 million or approximately $0.7 million and $0.4 million, respectively, to its UK pension plan. These contributions allowed the Company to comply with regulatory funding requirements.
Assumptions
Underlying both the calculation of the PBO and net periodic cost are actuarial valuations. These valuations use participant-specific information such as salary, age, years of service, and assumptions about interest rates, compensation increases and other factors. At a minimum, the Company evaluates these assumptions annually and makes changes as necessary.
The discount rate reflects the estimated rate at which the pension benefits could be effectively settled. In developing the discount rate, the Company considered the yield available on an appropriate AA corporate bond index, adjusted to reflect the term of the scheme's liabilities as well as a yield curve model developed by the Company's actuaries.
The expected return on assets was estimated by using the weighted average of the real expected long term return (net of inflation) on the relevant classes of assets based on the target asset mix and adding the chosen inflation assumption.
JDS UNIPHASE CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-(Continued)
The following table summarizes the weighted average assumptions used to determine net periodic cost and benefit obligation for the Company's UK and German pension plans, and other postretirement benefit plans.
Investment Policies and Strategies
The Company's investment objectives for its funded pension plan are to ensure that there are sufficient assets available to pay out members' benefits as and when they arise and that should the plan be discontinued at any point in time there would be sufficient assets to meet the discontinuance liabilities. To achieve the objectives, the trustees of the plan are responsible for regularly monitoring the funding position and managing the risk by investing in assets expected to outperform the increase in value of the liabilities in the long term and by investing in a diversified portfolio of assets in order to minimize volatility in the funding position. The trustees invest in a range of frequently traded funds ("pooled funds") rather than direct holdings in individual securities to maintain liquidity, achieve diversification and reduce the potential for risk concentration. The funded plan assets are managed by professional third-party investment managers.
Fair Value Measurement of Plan Assets
The following table sets forth the plan's assets at fair value and the percentage of assets allocations as of June 29, 2013.
JDS UNIPHASE CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-(Continued)
The following table sets forth the plan's assets at fair value and the percentage of assets allocations as of June 30, 2012.
The Company's pension assets consist of multiple institutional funds ("pension funds") of which the fair values are based on the quoted prices of the underlying funds. Pension funds are classified as Level 2 assets since such funds are not directly traded in active markets.
Global equity consists of one index fund that invests approximately 60% in UK equities as represented by the FTSE All-Share Index and 40% in overseas equities as represented by the appropriate sub-divisions of FTSE All-World Index.
Fixed income consists of two funds that invest primarily in index-linked Gilts (over 5 year) and sterling-denominated investment grade corporate bonds, respectively.
Other consists of several funds that primarily invest in equity index, private equity, global real estate, infrastructure, and high yield bonds funds.
Future Benefit Payments
The following table reflects the total expected benefit payments to defined benefit pension plan participants. These payments have been estimated based on the same assumptions used to measure the Company's PBO at year end and include benefits attributable to estimated future compensation increases.

KLA-Tencor is a customer of the Company. As of August 16, 2012, the member resigned from the Board of Directors of JDSU and KLA-Tencor was no longer a related party.
Transactions and balances with the Company's related parties were as follows (in millions):
(1)There were no material transactions between the Company and KLA-Tencor during the period when KLA-Tencor was a related party of the Company in fiscal 2013.
Note 17. Commitments and Contingencies
Operating Leases
The Company leases certain real and personal property from unrelated third parties under non-cancelable operating leases that expire at various dates through fiscal 2023. Certain leases require the Company to pay property taxes, insurance and routine maintenance, and include escalation clauses. As of June 29, 2013, future minimum annual lease payments under non-cancellable operating leases were as follows (in millions):
Included in the future minimum lease payments table above is $10.2 million related to lease commitments in connection with the Company's restructuring activities. See "Note 11. Restructuring and Related Charges" for more detail.
The aggregate future minimum rentals to be received under non-cancellable subleases totaled $2.0 million as of June 29, 2013. Rental expense relating to building and equipment was $26.0 million, $27.5 million and $24.6 million in fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-(Continued)
Purchase Obligations
Purchase obligations of $130.3 million as of June 29, 2013, represent legally-binding commitments to purchase inventory and other commitments made in the normal course of business to meet operational requirements. Although open purchase orders are considered enforceable and legally binding, the terms generally allow the option to cancel, reschedule and adjust the requirements based on the Company's business needs prior to the delivery of goods or performance of services. Obligations to purchase inventory and other commitments are generally expected to be fulfilled within one year.
The Company depends on a limited number of contract manufacturers, subcontractors, and suppliers for raw materials, packages and standard components. The Company generally purchases these single or limited source products through standard purchase orders or one-year supply agreements and has no significant long-term guaranteed supply agreements with such vendors. While the Company seeks to maintain a sufficient safety stock of such products and maintains on-going communications with its suppliers to guard against interruptions or cessation of supply, the Company's business and results of operations could be adversely affected by a stoppage or delay of supply, substitution of more expensive or less reliable products, receipt of defective parts or contaminated materials, increases in the price of such supplies, or the Company's inability to obtain reduced pricing from its suppliers in response to competitive pressures.
Financing Obligations-Eningen, Santa Rosa and Payment Plan Agreements for Software Licenses
Eningen
On December 16, 2011, the Company executed and closed the sale and leaseback transaction of certain buildings and land in Eningen, Germany (the "Eningen Transactions"). The Company sold approximately 394,217 square feet of land, nine buildings with approximately 386,132 rentable square feet, and parking areas. The Company leased back approximately 158,154 rentable square feet comprised of two buildings and a portion of a basement of another building (the "Leased Premises"). The lease term is 10 years with the right to cancel a certain portion of the lease after 5 years. The gross cash proceeds received from the transaction were approximately €7.1 million.
Concurrent with the sale and lease back, the Company has provided collateral in case of a default by the Company relative to future lease payments for the Leased Premises. Due to this continuing involvement, the related portion of the cash proceeds and transaction costs, associated with the Leased Premises and other buildings which the Company continues to occupy, was recorded under the financing method in accordance with the authoritative guidance on leases and sales of real estate. Accordingly, the carrying value of these buildings and associated land will remain on the Company's books and the buildings will continue to be depreciated over their remaining useful lives. The portion of the proceeds received have been recorded as a financing obligation, a portion of the lease payments are recorded as a decrease to the financing obligation and a portion is recognized as interest expense. Imputed rental income from the buildings sold but not leased back and currently being occupied is recorded as a reduction in the financing obligation.
The Company completed the consolidation and exited one of the buildings, which it previously occupied and is not being leased, during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012. Upon exit, the Company had no form of continuing involvement for the aforementioned building and associated land. The Company accordingly removed the carrying value of the building, the associated land and the financing liability and recognized a gain of $0.5 million.
JDS UNIPHASE CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-(Continued)
During the year ended June 30, 2012, the Company recognized a loss, net of transaction costs, of $0.2 million on sale of the remaining five buildings and associated land on which there is no form of continuing involvement.
As of June 29, 2013, of the total financing obligation related to the Eningen Transactions, $0.1 million was included in Other current liabilities, and $5.0 million was included in Other non-current liabilities. As of June 30, 2012, of the total financing obligation related to the Eningen Transactions, $0.1 million was included in Other current liabilities, and $4.9 million was included in Other non-current liabilities.
Santa Rosa
On August 21, 2007, the Company entered into a sale and lease back of certain buildings and land in Santa Rosa, California (the "Santa Rosa Transactions"). The Company sold approximately 45 acres of land, 13 buildings with approximately 492,000 rentable square feet, a building pad, and parking areas. The Company leased back 7 buildings with approximately 286,000 rentable square feet. The net cash proceeds received from the transaction were $32.2 million. The lease terms range from a one-year lease with a one-year renewal option to a ten-year lease with two five-year renewal options.
The Company has an ongoing obligation to remediate environmental matters, impacting the entire site, as required by the North Coast Regional Water Quality Control Board which existed at the time of sale. Concurrent with the sale and lease back, the Company has issued an irrevocable letter of credit for $3.8 million as security for the remediation of the environmental matter that remains in effect until the issuance of a notice of no further action letter from the North Coast Regional Water Quality Control Board. In addition, the lease agreement for one building included an option to purchase at fair market value, at the end of the lease term. Due to these various forms of continuing involvement the transaction was recorded under the financing method in accordance with the authoritative guidance on leases and sales of real estate.
Accordingly, the value of the buildings and land will remain on the Company's books and the buildings will continue to be depreciated over their remaining useful lives. The proceeds received have been recorded as a financing obligation, a portion of the lease payments are recorded as a decrease to the financing obligation and a portion is recognized as interest expense. Imputed rental income from the buildings sold but not leased back is recorded as a reduction in the financing obligation.
As of June 29, 2013, $1.1 million was included in Other current liabilities, and $27.4 million was included in Other non-current liabilities. As of June 30, 2012, $0.9 million was included in Other current liabilities, and $28.5 million was included in Other non-current liabilities.
The lease payments due under the agreement reset to fair market rental rates upon the Company's execution of the renewal options.
Payment Plan Agreements for Software Licenses
During fiscal 2011and 2009, the Company capitalized approximately $7.1 million and $11.1 million, respectively, of cost incurred for the purchase of perpetual software licenses issued by the same supplier, in accordance with the authoritative accounting guidance. The Company entered into a three-year payment plan agreement ("PPA") with the supplier towards software licenses and technical
JDS UNIPHASE CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-(Continued)
support purchased in fiscal 2009, which was paid in full during fiscal 2012. The Company entered into a four-year PPA with the supplier towards software licenses and technical support purchased in fiscal 2011. Under this PPA, payments are made annually starting the first quarter of fiscal 2012. The principal portion of the payment is accounted for as a financing activity and the interest portion is accounted for as an operating activity in the statement of cash flows. As of June 29, 2013, the Company's remaining contractual commitment was $1.9 million, which is due in fiscal 2014.
During the fiscal years 2013, 2012 and 2011, the Company recorded amortization expense of $3.6 million, $3.6 million and $2.2 million, respectively, for these licenses.
Guarantees
In accordance with authoritative guidance which requires that upon issuance of a guarantee, the guarantor must recognize a liability for the fair value of the obligation it assumes under that guarantee. In addition, disclosures about the guarantees that an entity has issued, including a tabular reconciliation of the changes of the entity's product warranty liabilities, are required.
The Company from time to time enters into certain types of contracts that contingently require the Company to indemnify parties against third-party claims. These contracts primarily relate to: (i) divestiture agreements, under which the Company may provide customary indemnifications to purchasers of the Company's businesses or assets; (ii) certain real estate leases, under which the Company may be required to indemnify property owners for environmental and other liabilities, and other claims arising from the Company's use of the applicable premises; and (iii) certain agreements with the Company's officers, directors and employees, under which the Company may be required to indemnify such persons for liabilities arising out of their employment relationship.
The terms of such obligations vary. Generally, a maximum obligation is not explicitly stated. Because the obligated amounts of these types of agreements often are not explicitly stated, the overall maximum amount of the obligations cannot be reasonably estimated. Historically, the Company has not been obligated to make significant payments for these obligations, and no liabilities have been recorded for these obligations on its balance sheet as of June 29, 2013 and June 30, 2012.
Product Warranties
In general, the Company offers a three-month to one-year warranty for most of its products. The Company provides reserves for the estimated costs of product warranties at the time revenue is recognized. The Company estimates the costs of its warranty obligations based on its historical experience of known product failure rates, use of materials to repair or replace defective products and service delivery costs incurred in correcting product failures. In addition, from time to time, specific warranty accruals may be made if unforeseen technical problems arise with specific products. The Company periodically assesses the adequacy of its recorded warranty liabilities and adjusts the amounts as necessary.

Legal Proceedings
During the first quarter of fiscal 2012, the Company received an unfavorable arbitrator's decision in a legal dispute unrelated to current or future quarters. The arbitrator's decision was related to, and contrary to the result of, an action which commenced in 2006 in the Western District of Pennsylvania in which the Company was a nominal plaintiff. The Pennsylvania matter was resolved in the Company's favor in 2009 and was subsequently affirmed by a Federal Appeals Court in January 2011. The arbitration award was confirmed at the California State Superior Court in October, 2011. On March 5, 2012 the Pennsylvania District Court denied JDSU's request to vacate the arbitration award, and the parties subsequently reached a settlement agreement on March 22, 2012 pursuant to which the Company paid $7.9 million on April 2, 2012 in full and final settlement of the matter. The related charge is included as a component of SG&A expense in the Company's Consolidated Statement of Operations.
The Company is subject to a variety of claims and suits that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of our business. While management currently believes that resolving claims against the Company, individually or in aggregate, will not have a material adverse impact on its financial position, results of operations or statement of cash flows, these matters are subject to inherent uncertainties and management's view of these matters may change in the future. Were an unfavorable final outcome to occur, there exists the possibility of a material adverse impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows for the period in which the effect becomes reasonably estimable.
Tax Matters
The Company had been subject to Texas franchise tax audits related to allocated taxable surplus capital for Texas report years 2002 through 2007. The range of the potential total tax liability related to these audits had been estimated to be from $0 million to $34.2 million, plus interest and penalties. During the year ended June 29, 2013, the Company agreed to settle the audits for $0.1 million in total tax and interest.

The Company is a leading provider of communications test and measurement solutions and optical products for telecommunications service providers, cable operators, and network equipment manufacturers ("NEMs"), and enterprises. JDSU's diverse technology portfolio also fights counterfeiting and enables commercial lasers for a range of manufacturing applications.
Effective July 1, 2012, the reporting structure of the previous AOT business segment was reorganized and its previous reporting units, which consisted of COPG, Flex and ASG (excluding the Hologram Business), were merged into the new OSP business segment, having one single reporting unit, replacing the AOT business segment. The Hologram Business was previously presented within the AOT business segment; however, because it is presented as discontinued operations for financial reporting purposes as of September 29, 2012, it has been excluded from the segment results below.
The Company's reportable segments are:
(i)Communications Test and Measurement Business Segment:
CommTest network and service enablement solutions provide end-to-end visibility and intelligence necessary for consistent, high-quality network, service, and application performance. These solutions speed time-to-revenue by accelerating the deployment of new products and services, lower operating expenses and improve network performance and reliability. Included in the product portfolio are test tools, platforms, microprobes, software, and services for wireless and fixed networks.
(ii)Communications and Commercial Optical Products Business Segment:
CCOP provides components, modules, subsystems, and solutions used by communications equipment providers for telecommunications and enterprise data communications. These products enable the transmission of video, audio, and text data over high-capacity, fiber-optic cables. The product portfolio includes transmitters, receivers, amplifiers, ROADMs, optical transceivers, multiplexers and demultiplexers, switches, optical-performance monitors and couplers, splitters and circulators.
CCOP also provides a broad laser portfolio that addresses the needs of OEM clients for applications such as micromachining, materials processing, bioinstrumentation, consumer electronics, graphics, medical/dental, and optical pumping. JDSU products include diode, direct-diode, diode-pumped solid-state, fiber and gas lasers.
(iii)Optical Security and Performance Products Business Segment:
OSP provides innovative optical security solutions, with a strategic focus on serving the anti-counterfeiting market through advanced security pigments, thread substrates and printed features for the currency, pharmaceutical and consumer electronic segments. OSP also provides thin-film coating solutions for 3D and gesture-recognition applications.

The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. The Company evaluates segment performance based on operating income (loss), excluding certain infrequent or unusual items.
The amounts shown as Corporate consist of certain unallocated corporate-level operating expenses. In addition, the Company does not allocate stock-based compensation, acquisition-related charges and amortization of intangibles, restructuring and related charges, non-operating income and expenses, or other non-recurring charges to its segments as highlighted in the table below.
Information on reportable segments is as follows (in millions):
(1)During the third quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company incurred $11.3 million of inventory related charges, included in Cost of sales, primarily related to a write-off of inventory no longer being sold due to a strategic plan to exit the legacy low-speed wireline product line approved in the third quarter of fiscal 2013.

The Company operates primarily in three geographic regions: Americas, Europe, Middle East and Africa ("EMEA") and Asia-Pacific. The following table presents net revenue and identifiable assets by geographic regions (in millions):
Net revenue was assigned to geographic regions based on the customers' shipment locations. Net revenue for Americas included net revenue from United States of $630.8 million, $673.6 million and $679.1 million, for the fiscal years ended June 29, 2013, June 30, 2012 and July 2, 2011, respectively, based on customers' shipment location.
During fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011, no customer accounted for more than 10% of net revenue.
Long-lived assets, namely net property, plant and equipment were identified based on the operations in the corresponding geographic areas (in millions).
Note 19. Discontinued Operations
During the second quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company closed the sale of the Hologram Business, previously within the OSP reportable segment, to OpSec Security Inc. and received gross proceeds of $11.5 million in cash.
In accordance with the applicable accounting guidance for the disposal of long-lived assets, the results of the Hologram Business are presented as discontinued operations and, as such, have been excluded from both continuing operations and segment results for all periods presented.
Net revenue of the Hologram Business for fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011 was $5.2 million, $19.7 million and $22.6 million, respectively. Net loss from discontinued operations was zero, $29.5 million, and $7.1 million for fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Net loss from discontinued operation in fiscal 2012 primarily related to impairment charges on long-lived assets. There was no tax effect associated with the discontinued operation.

Note 20. Quarterly Financial Information (Unaudited)
The following table presents the Company's quarterly consolidated statements of operations for fiscal 2013 and 2012 (in millions, except per share data):
(1)Net income (loss) per share is computed independently for each of the quarters presented. Therefore, the sum of the quarterly basic and diluted net income (loss) per share amounts do not equal the annual basic and diluted net income (loss) per share amount for fiscal 2013 or fiscal 2012, respectively.
(2)During the quarter ended June 30, 2012, the Company received $10.5 million, net of deductibles, from the insurance company against the claim filed for business interruption and miscellaneous property losses arising due to flooding at one of the Company's manufacturing partner, of which $9.4 million was recorded as other income in Interest and other income (expense), net.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-(Continued)
(3)During the quarter ended June 30, 2012, the Company recorded an impairment of long-lived assets of $21.5 million related to its Hologram Business which has been presented as Loss from discontinued operations, net of tax in accordance with the authoritative guidance. See "Note 19. Discontinued Operations" for more detail.
(4)During the quarter ended March 30, 2013, the Company approved a strategic plan to exit CommTest's legacy low-speed wireline product line, which resulted in a $2.2 million charge for accelerated amortization of related intangibles of which $1.8 million and $0.4 million is included in Amortization of acquired technologies and Amortization of other intangibles in the Consolidated Statement of Operations, respectively. In addition, the Company incurred $11.3 million of inventory related charges included in Cost of sales in the Consolidated Statement of Operations primarily related to the write-off of inventory no longer being sold due to the legacy low-speed wireline product line exit.
(5)During the quarter ended June 29, 2013, the Company determined that it is more likely than not that a portion of the deferred tax assets of a non-U.S. jurisdiction will be realized after considering all positive and negative evidence. Accordingly, a deferred tax valuation allowance release of $107.9 million was recorded as an income tax benefit during the quarter.
Note 21. Subsequent Events
On August 21, 2013, the Company completed an offering of $650.0 million aggregate principal amount of 0.625% Senior Convertible Debentures due 2033 (the "Notes") in a private offering to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
The Notes are unsecured obligations of the Company and bear interest at a rate of 0.625% per year. Interest on the Notes is payable in cash semi-annually in arrears on February 15 and August 15 of each year. In certain circumstances and during certain periods, the Notes may be converted at the option of holders into cash up to their principal amount, and into cash, shares of the Company's common stock, or a combination of cash and the Company's common stock at the Company's election for the conversion value above the principal amount. The initial conversion price is approximately $18.83 per share, which will be subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments. The Notes mature on August 15, 2033, unless earlier converted, redeemed or repurchased.
Proceeds from the offering of the Notes amounted to approximately $636.3 million after deducting the initial purchasers' discounts and offering expenses. Concurrently with the offering, the Company used $100.0 million of the net proceeds to repurchase approximately 7.4 million shares of its outstanding common stock at $13.45 per share in privately negotiated transactions. The remaining net proceeds will be used for general corporate purposes.
On August 21, 2013, the Company terminated its existing $250.0 million revolving credit facility, which had no amounts outstanding upon termination. See "Note 10. Debts and Letters of Credit" for more details.
