ELECTRO SCIENTIFIC INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1. Basis of Presentation

These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted in these interim statements.
Accordingly, these condensed consolidated financial statements are to be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K. These interim statements include all adjustments
(consisting of only normal recurring adjustments and accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of results for the interim periods presented. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the entire
year.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of commitments and contingencies at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during
the reporting periods. Actual results may differ from those estimates. Management believes that the estimates used are reasonable. Significant estimates made by management include: revenue recognition; inventory valuation; product warranty reserves;
allowance for doubtful accounts; share-based compensation; income taxes including the valuation of deferred tax assets; fair value measurements; valuation of cost method equity investments; valuation of goodwill; and valuation of long-lived assets.

There have been no significant changes to the Companys significant accounting policies from those presented in Note 2 Summary of
Significant Accounting Policies to the consolidated financial statements included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K filed for its fiscal year ended April 3, 2010.

Certain reclassifications have been made in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for prior periods to conform to the current presentation. All references to years or quarters
relate to fiscal years or fiscal quarters unless otherwise noted.

2. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

There have been no recent accounting pronouncements or changes in accounting pronouncements during the quarter ended October 2, 2010 that are of
significance to the Company.

3. Restricted Cash

As of October 2, 2010, the Company had restricted cash of $10.8 million, which collateralizes commercial letters of credit substituted for the cash bond previously held by the Kaohsiung District
Court of Taiwan. See Note 18 Legal Proceedings for further discussion.

4. Fair Value Measurements

Financial Assets Measured at Fair Value

Fair value is defined under Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 820 Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (ASC Topic 820) as the
exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date.
Valuation techniques used to measure fair value must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. ASC Topic 820 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair
value. These tiers include the following:



| |  |  | Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

##### Table of Contents



| |  |  | Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities that are either directly or indirectly
observable; and
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Companys fair value hierarchy for its financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of
October 2, 2010 and April 3, 2010 was as follows (in thousands):

For Level 1 assets, the Company
utilized quoted prices in active markets for identical assets.

For Level 2 assets, exclusive of forward contracts, the Company utilized
quoted prices in active markets for similar assets. For forward contracts, spot prices at October 1, 2010 and April 2, 2010 were utilized to calculate fair values.

The Level 3 assets consisted of auction rate securities and preferred stock acquired through the conversion of certain auction rate securities (ARS). As none of the Companys ARS have traded through
the auction process and few market transactions have been observed for these securities, estimated fair values were based primarily upon the income approach using a discounted cash flow model which took into account the following: (i) the
underlying structure of each security; (ii) the present value of future principal and interest payments discounted at rates that reflect current market conditions; (iii) consideration of the probabilities of default, restructuring or
redemption by the issuer (trigger events); (iv) estimates of the recovery rates in the event of default for each security; (v) the financial condition, results, ratings of and financial claims on the bond insurers and issuers; and
(vi) the underlying trust assets of the securities.

As of October 2, 2010, the Company held ARS with a total estimated fair value
of $5.2 million. These ARS consisted of $13.7 million par value auction rate securities and $4.0 million par value auction rate securities which were converted by the bond issuer to its preferred stock during the third quarter of 2009. The
contractual maturities of these securities range up to calendar year 2050, and several securities and the preferred stock do not have stated maturities. These securities previously provided short-term liquidity through a Dutch auction process that
reset the applicable interest rate at pre-determined calendar intervals, generally every 28 to 35 days. As a result of the liquidity issues experienced in the global credit and capital markets, the Companys ARS began to experience failed
auctions during fiscal 2008. Since that time, none of the Companys ARS have traded through the auction process, few market transactions for these securities have been observed, and the credit quality of the counterparties has deteriorated.

As of October 2, 2010, the
estimated fair value of the Companys ARS of $5.2 million included $1.5 million of total net unrealized gains. These unrealized gains have been recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income. The Companys ARS are classified as
non-current assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at October 2, 2010, consistent with the classification at April 3, 2010.

The Company currently continues to receive all interest payments on its ARS when due, but has not received dividend payments on its preferred stock since the third quarter of 2010. The Company cannot
predict if or when its remaining ARS will become liquid or dividend payments on its preferred stock will resume. See the Companys 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 3, 2010 for further information related to these
investments.

The following table illustrates Level 3 activity from July 3, 2010 to October 2, 2010 (in thousands):

As of October 2, 2010, the Company had $6.0 million invested in Series D Preferred Stock and $2.2 million invested in
Series E Preferred Stock of OmniGuide, Inc., representing an 11% interest. At each reporting period end, the Company determines whether events or circumstances have occurred that are likely to have a significant adverse effect on the fair value of
these investments. If there are no events or circumstances identified that would adversely affect the fair value of the investments, the fair values of the investments are not calculated as it is not practicable to do so. As of October 2, 2010
and April 3, 2010, management had not identified any events or circumstances that indicated the investments were impaired; therefore, as presented in Note 9 Other Assets, the full carrying value of $8.2 million was included in Other
assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at October 2, 2010 and April 3, 2010, respectively.

The Company had no sales of available-for-sale securities in the second quarter of 2011. During the second quarter of 2010,
the Company sold $2.0 million of available-for-sale securities, resulting in an immaterial net gain. For purposes of determining gross realized gains and losses and reclassification out of accumulated other comprehensive income, the cost of
securities sold is based on specific identification. Net unrealized holding gains and losses on current available-for-sale securities included in accumulated other comprehensive income were insignificant as of October 2, 2010 and April 3,
2010.

Underlying maturities of investments at October 2, 2010 were $125.5 million within one year and $5.2 million beyond ten years.

Net warranty charges incurred include labor charges and costs of replacement parts for system repairs under warranty. These
costs are recorded net of any estimated cost recoveries resulting from either successful repair of damaged parts or from warranties offered by the Companys suppliers for defective components. The provision for warranty charges reflects the
estimate of future anticipated net warranty costs to be incurred for all products under warranty at fiscal year end and is recorded to cost of sales.

12. Deferred Revenue

Generally, revenue is recognized upon fulfillment of acceptance
criteria at the Companys factory and title transfer which frequently occur at the time of delivery to a common carrier. Revenue is deferred whenever title transfer is pending and/or acceptance criteria have not yet been fulfilled. Deferred
revenue occurrences include sales to Japanese customers, shipments of substantially new products and shipments with custom specifications and acceptance criteria. In sales involving multiple element arrangements, the fair value of any undelivered
elements, including installation services, is deferred until the elements are delivered and acceptance criteria are met. Revenue related to maintenance and service contracts is deferred and recognized ratably over the duration of the contracts.

There were no additional share-based compensation grants during the quarter ended October 2, 2010.

14. Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings
per share was calculated based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per share was calculated based on these same weighted average shares outstanding plus the effect of potentially dilutive
share-based awards as calculated using the treasury stock method. Share-based awards were excluded from the calculation to the extent their effect would be antidilutive.

Awards of options, stock-settled stock appreciation rights (SOSARs), unvested restricted stock units (RSUs) and shares associated with the Companys Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP) representing
an additional 4.9 million and 4.6 million shares of stock for the quarters ended October 2, 2010 and September 26, 2009, respectively, were not included in the calculation of diluted net earnings per share because their effect
would have been antidilutive. For the two quarters ended October 2, 2010 and September 26, 2009, awards of options, SOSARs, unvested RSUs and ESPP shares representing an additional 4.8 million and 4.5 million shares,
respectively, were excluded from the calculation of diluted net earnings per share as their effect would have been antidilutive.

15.
Comprehensive Income (Loss)

The components of comprehensive income (loss), net of tax, were as follows:

16. Share Repurchase Program

On May 15, 2008, the Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program totaling $20.0 million to acquire shares of the
Companys outstanding common stock primarily to offset dilution from equity compensation programs. The repurchases are to be made at managements discretion in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions in compliance with
applicable securities laws and other legal requirements and are subject to market conditions, share price and other factors. There is no fixed completion date for the repurchase program.

The Company did not repurchase any shares under this program during the two quarters ended October 2, 2010. As of October 2, 2010, a total of 372,825 shares have been repurchased for $5.3
million under this authorization at an average price of $14.16 per share, calculated inclusive of commissions and fees. Any cash used to settle repurchase transactions is reflected as a component of cash used in financing activities in the Condensed
Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Overview of Business

Electro Scientific Industries, Inc. and its subsidiaries (ESI) provide high-technology manufacturing equipment to the global semiconductor and micro-electronics markets, including advanced laser systems
that are used to micro-engineer electronic device features in high-volume production environments. Our customers are primarily manufacturers of semiconductors, electronic interconnect devices, passive components, light-emitting diodes (LEDs), or
other components used in a wide variety of end products in the computer, consumer electronics, communications and other industries. Our equipment enables these manufacturers to implement device features or achieve yield and productivity gains in
their manufacturing processes that can be critical to their profitability. ESI was founded in 1944 and is headquartered in Portland, Oregon, with subsidiaries in the United States, Europe, Asia and Canada.

Our advanced laser micro-engineering systems allow semiconductor and micro-electronics manufacturers to physically alter select device features during
high-volume production in order to heighten performance and boost production yields. Laser micro-engineering comprises a set of precise micron-level processes, including advanced micro-machining, wafer scribing and dicing, semiconductor memory-link
cutting, semiconductor device trimming, material ablation, via drilling and nano-level structuring to alter material characteristics. These processes require application-specific laser systems able to meet our customers exacting performance
and productivity requirements. Our laser-based systems improve production yields or enable improved performance for semiconductor devices, high-density interconnect (HDI) circuits, flexible interconnect material, advanced semiconductor packaging,
LEDs, flat panel liquid crystal displays (LCDs) and other components.

Additionally, we produce high-capacity test and optical inspection
equipment that is critical to the quality control process during the production of multi-layer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs). Our equipment ensures that each MLCC meets both the electrical and physical tolerances required to perform properly.

Summary of Sequential Quarterly Results

The financial results of the fiscal quarter ended October 2, 2010, which represents the second quarter of 2011, reflected continued strength in most markets for our products. Total orders were $70.2
million, compared to $64.1 million for the first quarter of 2011, which ended July 3, 2010. The sequential increase in orders was driven primarily by increased orders from memory repair customers for our Semiconductor Group (SG) products while
order levels remained strong in our Interconnect/Micro-machining Group (IMG).

Orders for our SG products increased approximately 15% in the
second quarter of 2011 compared to the prior quarter driven primarily by a large order for our latest memory repair system, and smaller orders from other customers adding capacity to existing factories.

Orders for our Components Group (CG) products decreased approximately 15% compared to the orders in the prior quarter. The decrease was primarily due to
a drop in orders from our MLCC manufacturing customers as they absorb the systems ordered in prior quarters. We continue to see high utilization of our test systems by most CG customers.

Orders for our IMG products increased approximately 15% compared to the prior quarter, driven by record orders from flex circuit customers as they continue to add capacity to support global demand for
mobile electronics. System orders continued to be strong for micro-machining, with new application orders for our recently released 5330HS and 5900HS system models.

Net sales of $59.6 million for the second quarter of 2011 increased $1.1 million compared to $58.5 million for the prior quarter. IMG sales increased $12.5 million due to an increase in sales in our flex
interconnect business. Sales for our SG products decreased $5.9 million despite higher orders due to timing of shipments. CG sales decreased $5.5 million as customers absorb capacity expansion from prior quarter deliveries.

##### Table of Contents



Gross margin was 43.7% on net sales of
$59.6 million for the second quarter of 2011 compared to 36.7% on net sales of $58.5 million for the prior quarter. The increase in gross margin percentage was primarily due to favorable shifts in mix towards newer products within our business
groups and favorable impact on absorption of higher production levels. In the prior quarter, we experienced lower absorption of manufacturing costs due to increased sales of existing finished goods and demo inventory, especially in memory repair.

Net operating expenses of $25.3 million in the second quarter of 2011 increased $2.2 million compared to the prior quarter. Excluding
acquisition settlement proceeds of $0.9 million received in the first quarter of 2011, the increase was $1.3 million. This increase was primarily due to variable expenses associated with higher business volume and profitability, the impact of annual
salary increases and expenses related to the acquisition of PyroPhotonics Lasers, Inc., partially offset by lower share-based compensation expense.

Operating income was $0.7 million in the second quarter of 2011, an improvement of $2.3 million compared to operating loss of $1.6 million in the prior quarter. The improvement was primarily due to better
gross margins, partially offset by higher operating expenses.

The effective tax rate was 166.1% for the second quarter of 2011, resulting
from an income tax expense of $1.5 million, compared to an effective rate of 113.2% for the prior quarter that resulted from an income tax benefit of $1.7 million. The increase in tax expense was primarily due to the timing of income between
quarters and an increase in the expected level of annual income. Our year-to-date tax rate for the first two quarters of fiscal 2011 was 31.7% compared to 33.9% for the first two quarters of fiscal 2010.

Net loss for the second quarter of 2011 was $0.6 million compared to net income of $0.2 million in the prior quarter, resulting from the $1.5 million tax
expense applied to income before taxes of $0.9 million.

##### Table of Contents



Selling, Service and Administration

Selling, service and administration (SS&A) expenses primarily consist of labor and other employee-related expenses including
share-based compensation expense, travel expenses, professional fees, sales commissions and facilities costs. SS&A expenses were $15.0 million for the quarter ended October 2, 2010, an increase of $3.7 million compared to the quarter ended
September 26, 2009. This increase was primarily attributable to overall increases in business activity and improved operating results, resulting in increased headcount and higher compensation costs. In addition, various temporary cost reduction
measures were in place in fiscal year 2010, including salary reductions, which have since been restored.

Research, Development and
Engineering

Research, development and engineering (RD&E) expenses are primarily comprised of labor and other employee-related
expenses, professional fees, project materials, equipment costs and facilities costs. RD&E expenses totaled $10.2 million for the quarter ended October 2, 2010, an increase of $2.8 million compared to the quarter ended September 26,
2009. This increase was primarily due to increased project expenses, headcount and compensation expense, including the restoration of higher levels of pay.

Non-operating Income and Expense

Interest and Other Income, net

Interest and other income, net, consists primarily of interest income, market gains and losses on assets held for our deferred compensation plan, realized
and unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses, bank charges, investment management fees, ARS valuation fees and other miscellaneous non-operating items. Net interest and other income was $0.2 million during the quarter ended October 2, 2010
compared to $0.4 million for the quarter ended September 26, 2009.

Income Taxes

The following table presents income tax information:

The income tax provision for the quarter ended October 2, 2010 was $1.5 million on pretax income of $0.9 million, an
effective tax rate of 166.1%. For the quarter ended September 26, 2009, the income tax benefit was $2.9 million on pretax loss of $9.0 million, an effective tax rate of 32.1%. The increase in tax expense was primarily due to higher estimated
annual earnings and the impact of the timing of income between quarters. Looking forward, we expect that our tax expense will return to normalized levels of approximately 30%.

Our effective tax rate is subject to fluctuation based upon the mix of income and relative tax rates between jurisdictions, and the occurrence and timing of numerous discrete events such as changes in tax
laws or their interpretations, extensions or expirations of research and experimentation credits, closure of tax years subject to examination, finalization of income tax returns, the relationship of fixed deductions to overall changes in estimated
and actual pretax income or loss and the tax jurisdictions where income or loss is generated. Additionally, our effective tax rate varies widely as income before taxes fluctuates around breakeven points. Based on currently available information, we
are not aware of any further discrete events which are likely to occur that would have a material effect on our financial position, expected cash flows or results of operations. We anticipate no significant changes in unrecognized tax benefits in
the next twelve months as the result of examinations or lapsed statutes of limitation.

SG sales in the two quarters ended October 2, 2010 increased $19.2 million or 148% compared to the two quarters ended
September 26, 2009. The overall increase in sales was due to improvement in memory markets as customers begin to add capacity of memory repair tools in response to higher demand for DRAM memory. In addition, we have seen growth among
LED-scribing and flat panel repair customers as the LED and LCD markets grow.

CG sales in the two quarters ended
October 2, 2010 increased $20.9 million or 185% compared to the two quarters ended September 26, 2009. The increase was primarily due to customer capacity expansion and increased tooling sales as a result of increased utilization levels of
our MLCC customers existing systems, in turn driven by increasing demand for consumer electronics.

IMG sales in the two quarters ended
October 2, 2010 increased $27.7 million or 106% compared to the two quarters ended September 26, 2009. The increase was primarily driven by strong orders from flex-circuit and micro-machining customers, a result of increasing consumer
demand for portable consumer electronics.

Net sales for the two quarters ended October 2, 2010 increased across all geographic regions: $66.2 million or 171% in
Asia, $0.4 million or 6% in the Americas and $1.1 million or 26% in Europe, compared to the two quarters ended September 26, 2009. The majority of our systems are sold into Asia as our customers manufacturing facilities primarily reside
in that region.

Selling, Service and Administration

SS&A expenses were $27.9 million for the two quarters ended October 2, 2010, an increase of $4.6 million compared to the two quarters ended September 26, 2009. This increase was primarily
attributable to overall increases in business activity and improved operating results, resulting in increased headcount and higher compensation costs. In addition, various temporary cost reduction measures were in place in fiscal year 2010,
including salary reductions, which have since been restored. These costs were partially offset by acquisition settlement proceeds of $0.9 million included in the first quarter of fiscal 2011.

Research, Development and
Engineering

RD&E expenses totaled $20.4 million for the two quarters ended October 2, 2010, an increase of $5.5 million compared
to the two quarters ended September 26, 2009. This increase was primarily due to increased project expenses, headcount and compensation expense, impacted by the restoration of higher levels of pay.

Merger Termination Proceeds, net

Net
merger termination proceeds for the two quarters ended September 26, 2009 were $4.5 million, which represented the receipt of a $5.4 million merger termination fee offset by $0.9 million of merger transaction costs.

Non-operating Income and Expense

Interest and Other Income, net

Net
interest and other income was $0.2 million for the two quarters ended October 2, 2010 compared to $0.7 million for the two quarters ended September 26, 2009. The reduction was primarily due to unfavorable foreign currency impact and lower
interest yields on our investments.

The income tax benefit for the two quarters ended October 2, 2010 was $0.2 million on pretax loss of $0.6 million, an
effective tax rate of 31.7%. For the two quarters ended September 26, 2009, the income tax benefit was $6.0 million on pretax loss of $17.6 million, an effective tax rate of 33.9%.

Our effective tax rate is subject to fluctuation based upon the mix of income and relative tax rates between jurisdictions, and the occurrence and timing of numerous discrete events such as changes in tax
laws or their interpretations, extensions or expirations of research and experimentation credits, closure of tax years subject to examination, finalization of income tax returns, the relationship of fixed deductions to overall changes in estimated
and actual pretax income or loss and the tax jurisdictions where income or loss is generated. Based on currently available information, we are not aware of any further discrete events which are likely to occur that would have a material effect on
our financial position, expected cash flows or results of operations. We anticipate no significant changes in unrecognized tax benefits in the next twelve months as the result of examinations or lapsed statutes of limitation.

Net loss for the two quarters ended October 2, 2010 was $0.4 million, or $0.01 per basic share, compared to a net loss
of $11.7 million, or $0.43 per basic share for the two quarters ended September 26, 2009. The improvement was primarily due to improved gross profit on higher revenues in the first two quarters of 2011, offsetting the impact of higher net
operating expenses.

Financial Condition and Liquidity

At October 2, 2010, our principal sources of liquidity were cash and cash equivalents of $40.4 million, short-term investments of
$118.6 million and accounts receivable of $46.4 million. We also held $10.8 million in restricted cash as collateral for commercial letters of credit. Our current ratio was 5.2 and we held no long-term debt. Working capital of $251.9 million was
down slightly compared to the April 3, 2010 balance of $253.7 million.

On May 15, 2008, the Board of Directors authorized a share
repurchase program totaling $20.0 million to acquire shares of our outstanding common stock primarily to offset dilution from equity compensation programs. Repurchases under the program are to be made at managements discretion in the open
market or in privately negotiated transactions in compliance with applicable securities laws and other legal requirements and are subject to market conditions, share price and other factors. We did not repurchase any shares under this program during
the two quarters ended October 2, 2010. As of October 2, 2010, a total of 372,825 shares have been repurchased under this authorization for $5.3 million and an average price of $14.16 per share, calculated inclusive of commissions and
fees. Cash used to settle repurchase transactions is reflected as a component of cash used in financing activities in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. There is no fixed completion date for the repurchase program.

As of October 2, 2010, we held a total of $13.7 million invested in auction rate securities (ARS) at par value. Additionally, we held $4.0 million
of par value ARS which were converted by the bond issuer to its preferred stock during the third quarter of 2009. These securities were recorded at an estimated fair value of $5.2 million as of October 2, 2010. The contractual maturities of
these securities range up to calendar year 2050, and several securities and the preferred stock do not have stated maturities.

We currently
continue to receive all interest payments on our ARS when due, but have not received dividend payments on our preferred stock since the third quarter of 2010. We cannot predict if or when our remaining ARS will become liquid or dividend payments on
our preferred stock will resume.

Sources and Uses of Cash for the Two Quarters Ended October 2, 2010

Net cash flows provided by operating activities totaled $12.9 million for the two quarters ended October 2, 2010 due to $8.6 million from non-cash
items less the net loss and $4.3 million from net reductions within working capital. The primary sources of cash from working capital consisted of $12.1 million from increases in accounts payable and accrued liabilities, $3.1 million from net
increases in deferred revenue and $0.6 million from decreases in other current assets, partially offset by increases in trade receivables of $7.6 million, increases in shipped systems pending acceptance of $2.2 million and net increases in
inventories of $1.7 million.

For the two quarters ended October 2, 2010, net cash used in investing activities of $13.1 million resulted
from the acquisition of the assets of PyroPhotonics Lasers, Inc. for $8.1 million, purchases of property, plant and equipment of $2.6 million and net purchases of investments of $2.5 million. Net cash provided by financing activities of $0.2 million
was due to proceeds from stock plan activity.

We believe that our existing cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments are adequate to
fund our operations, share repurchase program and contractual obligations for at least the next twelve months.

PART II  OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

All Ring Patent
Infringement Prosecution

Our proceedings against All Ring Tech Co., Ltd. (All Ring) in Taiwan for alleged patent infringement are ongoing.
As part of these proceedings, the Court issued orders restricting the use of some of All Rings assets. Pursuant to these orders, we were required to post security bonds with the Court. In July 2009 and September of 2009, we established letters
of credit as a substitution for the security bonds and received back a total of $9.1 million from the Court. The letters of credit are collateralized by a total of $10.8 million of restricted cash, which is included on the Condensed Consolidated
Balance Sheet at October 2, 2010 as a current asset. See our 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 3, 2010 for further background related to these proceedings.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

The statements contained
in this report that are not statements of historical fact, including without limitation statements containing the words believes, expects and similar words, constitute forward-looking statements that are subject to a number
of risks and uncertainties. From time to time, we may make other forward-looking statements. Investors are cautioned that such forward-looking statements are subject to an inherent risk that actual results may differ materially. The following
information highlights some of the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results expressed or implied by our forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements should be considered in light of these factors.
Factors that may result in such variances include, but are not limited to, the following:

The industries we serve are volatile and
unpredictable.

Our business is dependent upon the capital expenditures of manufacturers of semiconductors and micro-electronics used
in wireless communications, computers and other electronic products. The capital equipment market for semiconductor and micro-electronics manufacturers has historically been characterized by sudden and severe cyclical variations in product supply
and demand due to a number of factors including capacity utilization,



20

##### Table of Contents

demand for customers products, inventory levels relative to demand, and access to affordable capital. The timing, severity and duration of these market cycles are difficult or impossible to
predict. Significant downturns in the market for semiconductor and micro-electronics used in electronic devices reduce demand for our products and may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results.

For example, the recent economic slowdown resulted in a decrease in orders for all of our product groups for each quarter throughout 2009,
with virtually no orders for our memory repair systems throughout 2010. Additionally, some of our customers ability to access credit was adversely affected, limiting their ability to purchase our products. The degree of the impact on our
business of the current economic environment will continue to depend on a number of factors, including the strength and continuity of the recovery in the US economy, the global economy in general, access to capital and stability of the financial
system, and overall health of the semiconductor and micro-electronics industries. This impact may cause potential material adverse changes to our financial and operational results.

To meet rapidly changing demand in the industries we serve, we must effectively manage our resources and production capacity. During periods of decreasing demand for our products, we must be able to
appropriately align our cost structure with prevailing market conditions and effectively manage our supply chain. Our ability to rapidly and effectively reduce our cost structure in response to such downturns is limited by the fixed nature of many
of our expenses in the near term and by our need to continue our investment in next-generation product technology and to support and service our products. Conversely, when upturns in this market occur, we may have difficulty rapidly and effectively
increasing our manufacturing capacity or procuring sufficient materials to meet sudden increases in customer demand, which could result in the loss of business to our competitors and harm to our relationships with our customers. If we are not able
to timely and appropriately adapt to changes in our business environment, our business, financial condition or results of operations may be materially and adversely affected.

The markets in which we operate are highly competitive.

We face substantial
competition from established competitors throughout the world, some of which have greater financial, engineering, manufacturing and marketing resources than we do. Those competitors with greater resources may, in addition to other things, be able to
better withstand periodic downturns, compete more effectively on the basis of price and technology, or more quickly develop enhancements to, and new generations of, products that compete with the products we manufacture and market. New companies may
enter the markets in which we compete, or industry consolidation may occur, further increasing competition in those markets. Furthermore, our technological advantages may be reduced or lost as a result of technological advances by our competitors.

Moreover, our business, financial condition or results of operations may be materially and adversely affected by competitive pressure and
intense price-based competition. We have experienced and continue to experience significant price competition in the sale of our products. In addition, pricing pressures typically have become more intense during cyclical downturns when competitors
seek to maintain or increase market share, reduce inventory or introduce more technologically advanced products. We believe that to be competitive we must continue to expend significant financial resources in order to, among other things, invest in
new product development and enhancements. We may not be able to compete successfully in the future and increased competition may result in price reductions, reduced profit margins and loss of market share.

Our operating results may fluctuate significantly from period to period, which could negatively impact our business.

Our revenues, operating margins and other operating results could fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter depending upon a variety of factors,
including:



| |  |  | demand for our products as a result of the cyclical nature of the semiconductor and micro-electronics manufacturing industries and the markets upon
which they depend or otherwise;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | changes in the timing and terms of product orders by our customers as a result of our customer concentration or otherwise;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | changes in the mix of products and services that we offer;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | timing and market acceptance of our new product introductions;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | delays or problems in the planned introduction of new products, or in the performance of any such products following delivery to customers;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| |  |  | our competitors announcements of new products, services or technological innovations, which can, among other things, render our products less
competitive due to the rapid technological change in our industry;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the timing and related costs of any acquisitions, divestitures or other strategic transactions;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | our ability to reduce our costs in response to decreased demand for our products and services;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | disruptions in our manufacturing process or in the supply of components to us;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | write-offs for excess or obsolete inventory; and
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | competitive pricing pressures.
| | - |  | ------------------------------

These risks may be exacerbated by the fact that we derive a substantial portion of our revenue from the sale of a relatively small numbers of products. As a result of these risks, we believe that quarter
to quarter comparisons of our revenue and operating results may not be meaningful, and that these comparisons may not be an accurate indicator of our future performance.

Our markets are subject to rapid technological change, and to compete effectively, we must continually introduce new products that achieve market acceptance.

The markets for our products are characterized by rapid technological change and innovation, frequent new product introductions, changes in customer
requirements and evolving industry standards. Our future performance will depend on the successful development, introduction and market acceptance of new and enhanced products that address technological changes and the requirements of current and
potential customers. The development of new, technologically advanced products is a complex and uncertain process, requiring high levels of innovation and highly skilled engineering and development personnel, as well as the accurate anticipation of
technological and market trends. We cannot assure you that we will be able to identify, develop, manufacture, market or support new or enhanced products successfully, if at all, or on a timely basis. The introduction by us or by our competitors of
new or enhanced products, or alternative technologies, may cause our customers to defer, change or cancel orders for our existing products or cease purchasing our products altogether. For example, for many years the semi-conductor memory industry
has employed alternative redundancy technologies. The adoption by our customers of electrical redundancy technology could have a material adverse effect on demand for our SG products. Further, we cannot assure that our new products will gain market
acceptance or that we will be able to respond effectively to product announcements by competitors, technology changes or emerging industry standards. If we are unable to develop new or enhanced products to address product or technology changes or
new industry standards on a timely basis or at all, or if our new or enhanced products are not accepted by the market, our business, results of operations and financial condition may be adversely affected.

We depend on a few significant customers, none of which are bound by long-term contracts, for a large portion of our revenues.

We depend on a few significant customers for a large portion of our revenues. In fiscal 2010, our top ten customers accounted for approximately 56% of
total net sales, with one customer accounting for approximately 30% of total net sales. We anticipate that sales of our products to a relatively small number of customers will continue to account for a significant portion of our revenues.
Consolidation between customers, changes in various partnership and technology arrangements between customers, customer bankruptcies or customer departures from their respective industries all may result in even fewer customers accounting for a high
percentage of our revenue. For example, in early calendar 2009 Qimonda AG, historically one of our top European customers, went bankrupt.

None of our customers have any long-term obligation to continue to buy our products or services. As a result, our customers may delay, reduce or cease
ordering our products or services at any time. Cancellations, reductions or deferrals could result from a number of factors, including a prolonged or additional downturn in the semiconductor or micro-electronics industries, manufacturing delays,
completion of new product manufacturing ramp-up by customers, quality or reliability issues with our products, the development and introduction of new products and technologies by our competitors, or interruptions to our customers operations
due to fire, natural disasters or other events. In particular, the markets we serve are subject to significant and unpredictable volatility, and downturns in those markets reduce demand for our products. In the future, the cancellation, reduction or
deferral of purchases of our products by even a single customer could significantly reduce our revenues in any particular quarter. If we were to lose any of our significant customers or suffer a material reduction in their purchase orders, revenue
could decline and our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

The failure of critical
suppliers to deliver sufficient product quantities in a timely and cost-effective manner could negatively affect our business.

We use
a wide range of materials from numerous suppliers in the manufacture of our products, including custom electronic, laser and mechanical components. We generally do not have guaranteed supply arrangements with our suppliers. We seek to reduce the
risk of production and service interruptions and shortages of key parts by selecting and qualifying alternative suppliers for key parts, monitoring the financial stability of key suppliers and maintaining appropriate inventories of key parts.
Although we make reasonable efforts to ensure that parts are available from multiple suppliers, some key parts are available only from a single supplier or a limited group of suppliers in the short term. In addition, some of the lasers we use in our
products are difficult to manufacture, and as a result we may not receive an adequate supply of lasers in a timely fashion to fill orders. Operations at our suppliers facilities are subject to disruption or discontinuation for a variety of
reasons, including changes in business relationships, competitive factors, financial difficulties, work stoppages, fire, natural disasters or other causes. Any such disruption or discontinuation to our suppliers operations could interrupt or
reduce our manufacturing activities and delay delivery of our products, any or all of which could materially and adversely affect our results of operations. In addition, as markets recover, there is a heightened risk that one or more of our
suppliers may not be able to meet increased demand requirements, adversely impacting our ability to fulfill orders and win business with our customers.

The failure of our contract manufacturers to timely perform could negatively affect our business.

We have arrangements with contract manufacturers to complete the manufacture of certain of our products or product subcomponents. Any significant interruption in our contract manufacturers ability
to provide manufacturing services to us as a result of contractual disputes with us or another party, labor disruptions, financial difficulties, natural disasters, delay or interruption in the receipt of inventory or other causes could result in
reduced manufacturing capabilities or delayed deliveries for certain of our products, any or all of which could materially and adversely affect our results of operations.

We may recognize charges for excess or obsolete inventory if our demand projections are incorrect or our technology strategy changes.

Our business is highly competitive and one factor on which we compete is the ability to ship products on schedules required by customers. In order to
facilitate timely shipping, management forecasts demand, both in type and amount of products, and these forecasts are used to determine inventory to be purchased. We also order materials based on our technology roadmap, which represents
managements assessment of technology that will be utilized in new products that we develop. Certain types of inventory, including lasers and optical equipment, are particularly expensive and may only be used in the production of a single type
of product. If actual demand is lower than forecast with respect to the type or amount of products actually ordered, or both, our inventory levels may increase. For example, at October 2, 2010, we had $73.1 million of inventory reflected on our
Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet, much of which we purchased or committed to purchase prior to the time the severity of the recent economic downturn became apparent. As a result, there is a risk that we may have to incur material accounting
charges for excess and obsolete inventory if inventory cannot be used, which would negatively affect our financial results. Also, if we alter our technology or product development strategy, we may have inventory which may not be usable under the new
strategy, which may also result in material accounting charges. For example, during fiscal 2009, we wrote-off $4.1 million of material from a research, development and engineering program due to a change in our product development strategy.

We may not be able to protect the proprietary rights upon which our business depends.

Our success depends significantly upon the protection of our proprietary rights. We attempt to protect our proprietary rights through patents,
copyrights, trademarks, maintenance of trade secrets and other measures, including entering into confidentiality agreements. We incur substantial costs to obtain and maintain patents and to defend our intellectual property rights. For example, we
initiated litigation against All Ring Tech Co., Ltd. in Taiwan in August 2005 alleging that certain of our patent rights had been violated. We rely upon the laws of the United States and foreign countries where we develop, manufacture or sell our
products to protect our proprietary rights. We may not be successful in protecting these proprietary rights, these rights may not provide the competitive advantages that we expect, or other parties may challenge, invalidate or circumvent these
rights.

Further, our efforts to protect our intellectual property may be less effective in some foreign countries where intellectual property
rights are not as well protected as in the United States. Many United States companies have encountered substantial problems in protecting their proprietary rights against infringement in foreign countries. If we fail to adequately protect our
intellectual property in these countries, it could be easier for our competitors to sell competing products in foreign countries, which could result in reduced sales and gross margins.

We may be subject to claims of
intellectual property infringement.

Several of our competitors hold patents covering a variety of technologies, applications and
methods of use similar to some of those used in our products. While we attempt in our designs to avoid patent infringement, from time to time we and our customers have received correspondence from our competitors claiming that some of our products,
as used by our customers, may be infringing one or more of these patents. Competitors or others have in the past and may in the future assert infringement claims against our customers or us with respect to current or future products or uses, and
these assertions may result in costly litigation or require us to obtain a license to use intellectual property rights of others. If claims of infringement are asserted against our customers, those customers may seek indemnification from us for
damages or expenses they incur.

If we become subject to infringement claims, we will evaluate our position and consider the available
alternatives, which may include seeking licenses to use the technology in question or defending our position. These licenses, however, may not be available on satisfactory terms or at all. If we are not able to negotiate the necessary licenses on
commercially reasonable terms or successfully defend our position, our financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.

Our ability to reduce costs is limited by our need to invest in research and development.

Our industry is characterized by the need for continued investment in research and development. Because of intense competition in the industries in which we compete, if we were to fail to invest
sufficiently in research and development, our products could become less attractive to our current and potential customers or obsolete, and our business and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected. As a result of our need to
maintain our spending levels in this area, our operating results could be materially harmed if our net sales decline. In addition, as a result of our emphasis on research and development and technological innovation, our operating costs may increase
in the future, and research and development expenses may increase as a percentage of total operating expenses and as a percentage of net sales.

We have made acquisitions and may make additional acquisitions in the future, which may be difficult to integrate, disrupt our business, dilute
shareholder value or divert management attention.

We may make acquisitions of, or significant investments in, other businesses with
complementary products, services or technologies, such as our September 2010 acquisition of the assets of PyroPhotonics Lasers, Inc. Acquisitions involve numerous risks, many of which are unpredictable and beyond our control, including:



| |  |  | difficulties and increased costs in connection with integration of the personnel, operations, technologies and products of the merged businesses;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | implementation of our enterprise resource planning (ERP) system into the acquired companys operations;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | diversion of managements attention from other operational matters;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the potential loss of key employees of the acquired company;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | lack of synergy or inability to realize expected synergies resulting from the acquisition;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | acquired assets becoming impaired as a result of technological advancements or worse-than-expected performance by the acquired company;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | difficulties establishing satisfactory internal controls at the acquired company;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | risks and uncertainties relating to the performance of the combined company following the transaction; and
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | incurring unanticipated liabilities for which we will not be indemnified.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------

Furthermore, the accounting for an acquisition could result in significant charges resulting from amortization of intangible assets we acquire. Our inability to effectively manage these risks could result
in our inability to realize the anticipated benefits of an acquisition on a timely basis, or at all, and materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, all acquisition transaction costs must
be expensed as incurred rather than capitalized, which may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

##### Table of Contents



The means by which we finance an
acquisition may also significantly affect our business or the value of the shares of our common stock. If we issue common stock to pay for an acquisition, the ownership percentage of our existing shareholders will be reduced and the value of the
shares held by our existing shareholders could be diluted. If we use cash on hand to pay for an acquisition, the payment could significantly reduce the cash that would be available to fund our operations or to use for other purposes. If we borrow
funds in connection with an acquisition, we would be required to use cash to service the debt and to comply with financial and other covenants.

We may from time to time also make strategic investments in development stage companies. Investments in development stage companies are subject to a high
degree of risk. We cannot assure you that we will not lose all or a portion of our investment in any such company.

We are implementing
our globalization strategy, and if we do not effectively implement a globalization plan or if we decide to change our strategy, our operating results could be negatively impacted.

We are implementing our globalization strategy in which we are moving certain operational resources and capabilities to different countries in Asia to reduce costs and to be closer to our customers. We
believe this implementation will reduce our manufacturing costs for certain products, enhance customer relationships and improve our responsiveness. We are currently implementing the first major phase of this strategy, having opened a larger
manufacturing facility in Singapore in the fourth quarter of 2010 for certain IMG and CG products.

Our globalization strategy is subject to a
variety of complexities and risks, many of which we have little experience managing, and which may divert a substantial amount of managements time. These risks include:



| |  |  | challenges in designing new facilities that can be scaled for future expansion, replicating current processes and bringing new facilities up to full
operation;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | unpredictable costs, redundancy costs and cost overruns for developing new facilities and acquiring equipment;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | building local management teams, technical personnel and other staff for functions that we have not previously conducted outside of the United States;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | technical obstacles such as poor production or process yield and loss of quality control during the ramp of a new facility;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | requalifications and other procedures that may be required by our customers;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | our ability to bring up local suppliers to meet our quality and cycle-time needs;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | rapidly changing business conditions that may require plans to be changed or abandoned before they are fully implemented; and
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | challenges posed by distance and by differences in language and culture.
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------

These and other factors could delay the development and implementation of our strategy, as well as impair our gross margins, delay shipments and deliveries, cause us to lose sales, require us to write off
investments already made, damage our reputation and harm our business, financial condition and operating results. If we decide to change our current global regionalization strategy, we may incur charges for certain costs incurred.

We are exposed to the risks of operating a global business, including risks associated with exchange rate fluctuations, legal and regulatory
changes and the impact of regional and global economic disruptions.

International shipments accounted for 90% of net sales in 2010,
with 83% of our net sales to customers in Asia. We expect that international shipments will continue to represent a significant percentage of net sales in the future. We also have significant foreign operations, including a Singapore manufacturing
facility, research and development facilities in Taiwan and China, and sales and service offices in various countries. Under our globalization strategy, we intend to increase our foreign operations in the future. Our non-U.S. sales, purchases and
operations are subject to risks inherent in conducting business abroad, many of which are outside our control, including the following:



| |  |  | periodic local or geographic economic downturns and unstable political conditions;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | price and currency exchange controls;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------



| |  |  | fluctuation in the relative values of currencies;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | difficulty in repatriating money, whether as a result of tax laws or otherwise;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | difficulties protecting intellectual property;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------



| |  |  | compliance with labor laws and other laws governing employees;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------

##### Table of Contents



| |  |  | local labor disputes;
| | - |  | ---------------------



| |  |  | shipping delays and disruptions;
| | - |  | --------------------------------



| |  |  | increases in shipping costs, caused by increased fuel costs or otherwise, which we may not be able to pass on to our customers;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | unexpected changes in trading policies, regulatory requirements, tariffs and other barriers; and
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | difficulties in managing a global enterprise, including staffing, collecting accounts receivable, managing suppliers, distributors and representatives,
and repatriating earnings.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Our business and operating results could also be impacted, directly or indirectly, by natural
disasters, outbreaks of infectious disease, military action, international conflicts, terrorist activities, civil unrest and associated political instability. Any such events or circumstances may result in heightened security concerns with respect
to domestic and international travel and commerce, which may further affect our business and operating results. In particular, due to these uncertainties, we are subject to the following additional risks:



| |  |  | future tightening of immigration controls may adversely affect the residence status of non-U.S. engineers and other key technical employees in our U.S.
facilities or our ability to hire new non-U.S. employees in such facilities;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | more frequent instances of shipping delays;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------



| |  |  | demand for our products may not increase or may decrease; and
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | our customers or suppliers may experience financial difficulties or cease operations.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Unfavorable currency exchange rate fluctuations may lead to lower operating margins or may cause us to raise prices.

Currency exchange rate fluctuations could have an adverse effect on our sales and results of operations and we could experience losses with respect to
forward exchange contracts into which we may enter. Unfavorable currency fluctuations could require us to increase prices to foreign customers, which could result in lower net sales by us to such customers. Alternatively, if we do not adjust the
prices for our products in response to unfavorable currency fluctuations, our results of operations could be materially and adversely affected. In addition, many of our foreign sales are denominated in the currency of the country in which these
products are sold and the currency we receive in payment for such sales could be less valuable at the time of receipt as a result of exchange rate fluctuations. From time to time, we enter into forward exchange contracts to hedge the value of
accounts receivable primarily denominated in Japanese yen and other currencies. However, we cannot be certain that our efforts will be adequate to protect us against significant currency fluctuations or that such efforts will not expose us to
additional exchange rate risks, which could adversely affect our results of operations.

Our effective tax rate is subject to
fluctuation and we may have exposure to additional tax liabilities.

As a global company, we are subject to taxation in the United
States and numerous foreign jurisdictions. Our effective tax rate is subject to fluctuation from one period to the next because the income tax rates for each year are a function of many factors, including: (a) taxable income levels and the
effects of a mix of profits (losses) earned by ESI and our subsidiaries in numerous tax jurisdictions with a broad range of income tax rates, (b) our ability to utilize deferred tax assets, (c) taxes, refunds, interest or penalties
resulting from tax audits, (d) the magnitude of various credits and deductions as a percentage of total taxable income and (e) changes in tax laws or the interpretation of such tax laws. Changes in the mix of these items may cause our
effective tax rate to fluctuate between periods, which could have a material adverse effect on our financial position and results of operations.

Furthermore, we are periodically under audits by United States and foreign tax authorities. We may have exposure to additional tax liabilities as a result of these audits. Significant judgment is required
in determining our provision for income and other tax liabilities. Although we believe our tax estimates are reasonable, the final outcome of tax audits and the impact of changes in tax laws or the interpretation of tax laws could result in material
differences from what is reflected in historical income tax accruals. If additional taxes are assessed as a result of an examination, a material effect on our financial results, tax positions or cash flows could occur in the period or periods in
which the determination is made.

No significant market currently
exists for the auction rate securities we hold and we may not be able to liquidate them at the current valuation, if at all, and we may recognize impairment charges if their estimated fair values decline.

As of October 2, 2010, we held a total of $13.7 million invested in auction rate securities (ARS) at par value. Additionally, we held $4.0 million
of par value ARS which were converted by the bond issuer to its preferred stock during the third quarter of 2009. These securities were recorded at an estimated fair value of $5.2 million as of October 2, 2010. The contractual maturities of
these securities range up to calendar year 2050, and several securities and the preferred stock do not have stated maturities. As a result of disruptions experienced in the global credit and capital markets, the auctions that previously provided
liquidity for the ARS began to fail during the second fiscal quarter of 2008.

Since that time, none of these securities have traded through
the auction process and few market transactions for these securities have been observed. Additionally, the bond insurers that guarantee the ARS experienced credit rating downgrades and the issuer of the preferred stock suspended dividend payments.
Consequently, we recognized significant write downs of the ARS as a result of the declines in fair value and the ARS are categorized as non-current assets.

We cannot reasonably predict if or when our remaining ARS will become liquid, and it is not possible to ascertain when or whether market conditions will change resulting in the recovery of fair value on
these auction rate securities. It is possible that a secondary market for the underlying securities will develop in which trading prices fall below our currently recorded fair values. Under such a scenario, or if other events arise that impact the
fair value of the securities, we may have to recognize further losses, which would adversely impact our financial position and results of operations.

It is possible that changes in the credit markets could also impact the liquidity of our investments and cash equivalents, which could impair our liquidity or require us to recognize impairment charges on
the value of those investments, which would negatively impact our financial position and results of operations.

Our intangible assets
may become impaired.

We held a total of $15.0 million in acquired intangible assets (See Note 8 Acquired Intangible
Assets) and goodwill at October 2, 2010. We review our acquired intangible assets for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. We test goodwill for impairment at least
annually. If such an adverse event occurred and had the effect of changing one of the critical assumptions or estimates related to the fair value of our intangible assets or goodwill, an impairment charge could result. For example, during fiscal
2009, as a result of a decrease in our market capitalization, we recorded a goodwill impairment charge of $17.4 million to write off all existing goodwill. Any such impairment charges may have a material negative impact on our financial condition
and operating results.

We may be unable to retain, attract and assimilate key managerial, financial, engineering and other technical
personnel.

Our continued success depends in part upon the services of our key managerial, financial and technical personnel. The loss
of key personnel, or our inability to attract, assimilate and retain qualified personnel, could result in the loss of customers, inhibit our ability to operate and grow our business, and otherwise have a material adverse effect on our business and
results of operations. We have previously had to, and may in the future have to, impose salary reductions on senior employees during economic downturns in an effort to maintain our financial position. These actions may have an adverse effect on
employee loyalty and may make it more difficult for us to attract and retain key personnel. Competition for qualified personnel in the industries in which we compete is intense, and we may not be successful in attracting and retaining qualified
personnel. We may incur significant costs in our efforts to recruit and retain key personnel, which could affect our financial position and results of operations.

We are exposed to lawsuits in connection with our business and operations.

From
time to time we are subject to various legal proceedings, including claims that involve possible infringement of patent or other intellectual property rights of third parties. It is inherently difficult to assess the outcome of litigation matters,
and there can be no assurance that we will prevail in any litigation. Any such litigation could



27

##### Table of Contents

result in substantial cost and diversion of managements attention, which by itself could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and operating results. Further, adverse
determinations in such litigation could result in loss of our property rights, subject us to significant liabilities, require us to seek licenses from others or prevent us from manufacturing or selling our products, any of which could materially
adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Many of our products are highly
complex and may contain defects or errors.

Our products are highly complex, and our extensive product development, manufacturing and
testing processes may not be adequate to detect all defects, errors, failures and quality issues that could impact customer satisfaction or result in claims against us. As a result, we may have to replace certain components or provide remediation in
response to the discovery of defects in products after they are shipped. The occurrence of any defects, errors, failures or quality issues could result in cancellation of orders, product returns, diversion of our resources, legal actions by our
customers and other losses to us or to our customers. These occurrences could also result in the loss of, or delay in, market acceptance of our products and loss of sales, which would harm our business and adversely affect our revenues and
profitability.

Our stock price is volatile.

The market price of our common stock has fluctuated widely. During fiscal 2010, our stock price fluctuated between a high of $14.36 per share and a low of $5.92 per share. Consequently, the current market
price of our common stock may not be indicative of future market prices, and we may be unable to sustain or increase the value of an investment in our common stock. Factors affecting our stock price, many of which our outside of our control, may
include:



| |  |  | variations in operating results from quarter to quarter;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | changes in earnings estimates by analysts or our failure to meet analysts expectations;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | changes in the market price per share of our public company customers;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | market conditions in the semiconductor and other industries into which we sell products;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | general economic conditions;
| | - |  | ----------------------------



| |  |  | political changes, hostilities or natural disasters;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | low trading volume of our common stock; and
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the number of firms making a market in our common stock.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------

In addition, the stock market has recently experienced significant price and volume fluctuations. These fluctuations have particularly affected the market prices of the securities of high-technology
companies like ours. These market fluctuations could adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

Provisions of our charter
documents, our shareholder rights plan and Oregon law could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire us.

Our articles of
incorporation and bylaws contain provisions that could make it harder for a third party to acquire us without the consent of our Board of Directors. Our Board of Directors has also adopted a shareholder rights plan, or poison pill, which
would significantly dilute the ownership of a hostile acquirer. In addition, the Oregon Control Share Act and the Oregon Business Combination Act limit the ability of parties who acquire a significant amount of voting stock to exercise control over
us. These provisions may have the effect of lengthening the time required for a person to acquire control of us through a proxy contest or the election of a majority of our Board of Directors, may deter efforts to obtain control of us and may make
it more difficult for a third party to acquire us without negotiation. These provisions may apply even if the offer may be considered beneficial by our shareholders.
