text: RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES
text: Total research and development (R&D) expenses, excluding impairment charges, increased by 22% in 2019 compared to the previous year, mainly as a result of higher development activities. As a percentage of sales (excluding the patent litigation & arbitration settlement), R&D expenses decreased to 10% compared to 11% in 2018. Currency changes resulted in a 4% increase in R&D expenses year-over-year.
text: Total research and development expenses developed as follows:
text: Impairment of capitalized development expenses related primarily to the development of new technology that is now no longer in-demand from customers.
text: We continue to invest strongly in R&D. As part of our R&D activities, we are engaged in various development programs with customers and research institutes. These allow us to develop products that meet customer requirements and obtain access to new technology and expertise. The costs relating to prototypes and experimental models, which we may subsequently sell to customers, are charged to the cost of sales.
text: Our R&D operations in the Netherlands, Belgium, and the United States receive research and development grants and credits from various sources.

text: Deferred Compensation Plan
text: The Company has a non-qualified, unfunded deferred compensation plan, which provides certain key employees, including executive officers, with the ability to defer the receipt of compensation in order to accumulate funds for retirement on a tax deferred basis. The Company does not make contributions to the plan or guarantee returns on the investments. The Company is responsible for the plan’s administrative expenses. Participants’ deferrals and investment gains and losses remain as the Company’s liabilities and the underlying assets are subject to claims of general creditors.
text: The liabilities for compensation deferred under the plan are recorded at fair value in each reporting period. Changes in the fair value of the liabilities are included in operating expense on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company manages the risk of changes in the fair value of the liabilities by electing to match the liabilities with investments in corporate-owned life insurance policies, mutual funds and money market funds that offset a substantial portion of the exposure. The investments are recorded at the cash surrender value of the corporate-owned life insurance policies, and at the fair value of the mutual funds and money market funds, which are classified as trading securities. Changes in the cash surrender value of the corporate-owned life insurance policies and the fair value of mutual fund and money market fund investments are included in interest and other income, net on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The following table summarizes the deferred compensation plan balances on the Consolidated Balance Sheets (in thousands):

Questions:
text: We recorded non-cash compensation expense related to stock-based awards as follows (in thousands):
text: As of September 30, 2019, there was $39.7 million of unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested RSUs. Based upon the expected forfeitures and the expected vesting of performance-based RSUs, the aggregate fair value of RSUs expected to ultimately vest is $40.0 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.7 years and includes the RSUs that vested on October 1, 2019.
text: We estimate forfeitures at the time of grant and revise those estimates in subsequent periods on a cumulative basis in the period the estimated forfeiture rate changes for all stock-based awards when significant events occur. We consider our historical experience with employee turnover as the basis to arrive at our estimated forfeiture rate. The forfeiture rate was estimated to be 12.5% per year as of September 30, 2019. To the extent the actual forfeiture rate is different from what we have estimated, compensation expense related to these awards will be different from our expectations.

text: 2016 Plan
text: In June 2016, we announced plans to restructure operations by phasing out production at our Elkhart, IN facility and transitioning it into a research and development center supporting our global operations ("June 2016 Plan"). Additional organizational changes were also implemented in various other locations. In 2017, we revised this plan to include an additional $1,100 in planned costs related to the relocation of our corporate headquarters in Lisle, IL and our plant in Bolingbrook, IL, both of which have now been consolidated into a single facility. Restructuring charges under this plan, which is substantially complete, were $4,284, $4,559, and $4,139 during the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018, and 2017, respectively. The total restructuring liability related to the June 2016 Plan was $233 and $668 at December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Any additional costs related to line movements, equipment charges, and other costs will be expensed as incurred.

text: Note 18 Other Post-Employment Benefits and Other Employee Benefit Plans
text: In addition to providing pension benefits, we maintain two Other Post-Employment Benefit Plans which provide a portion of healthcare, dental, vision and life insurance benefits for certain retired legacy employees. These plans are in the U.S. and Canada. Covered employees who retired on or after attaining age 55 and who had rendered at least 10 years of service were entitled to post-retirement healthcare, dental and life insurance benefits. These benefits are subject to deductibles, co-payment provisions and other limitations. The information below relates to these two plans.

text: (1) Fiscal 2018 was restated to reclassify results from Cogeco Peer 1 as discontinued operations. For further details, please consult the "Discontinued operations" section.
text: Fiscal 2019 fourth-quarter financial expense decreased by 15.2% mainly due to: • the reimbursements of $65 million and US$35 million under the Canadian Revolving Facility during the second quarter of fiscal 2019 and of US$328 million during the third quarter of fiscal 2019 following the sale of Cogeco Peer 1; and • lower debt outstanding and interest rates on the First Lien Credit Facilities; party offset by • the appreciation of the US dollar against the Canadian dollar compared to same period of the prior year.

text: In the year ended December 29, 2019, our income tax provision of $26.6 million on a profit before income taxes and equity in earnings (losses) of unconsolidated investees of $26.0 million was primarily due to tax expense in foreign jurisdictions that were profitable. In the year ended December 30, 2018, our income tax provision of $1.0 million on a loss before income taxes and equity in earnings of unconsolidated investees of $898.7 million was primarily due to tax expense in foreign jurisdictions that were profitable, offset by tax benefit related to release of valuation allowance in a foreign jurisdiction, and by a release of tax reserves due to lapse of statutes of limitation.

text: Free cash flow
text: The Free cash flow for the Industrial Businesses amounted to €8,000 millions, resulting in a cash conversation rate of 0.89.
text: Beginning with fiscal 2020, Siemens adopts IFRS 16, Leases, applying
the modified retrospective approach as described in more detail in NOTE 2 in B.6 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. As a result, the shift of lease payments from cash flows from operating activities to cash flows from financing activities will have a positive effect on Free cash flow.
text: With our ability to generate positive operating cash flows, our total liquidity (defined as cash and cash equivalents plus current interest-bearing debt securities) of €13.7 billion, our unused lines of credit, and our credit ratings at year-end, we believe that we have sufficient flexibility to fund our capital requirements.

text: AMER. Net sales for fiscal 2019 in the AMER segment increased $210.4 million, or 17.3%, as compared to fiscal 2018. The increase in net sales was driven by a $181.7 million increase in production ramps of new products for existing customers, a $13.5 million increase in production ramps for new customers and overall net increased customer end-market demand. The increase was partially offset by a $16.4 million decrease for end-of-life products and a $6.0 million reduction due to disengagements with customers.
text: APAC. Net sales for fiscal 2019 in the APAC segment increased $59.2 million, or 4.0%, as compared to fiscal 2018. The increase in net sales was driven by an $87.3 million increase in production ramps of new products for existing customers and a $58.1 million increase in production ramps for new customers. The increase was partially offset by a $28.4 million reduction due to a disengagement with a customer, a $7.3 million decrease for end-of-life products and overall net decreased customer end-market demand.
text: EMEA. Net sales for fiscal 2019 in the EMEA segment increased $28.4 million, or 10.1%, as compared to fiscal 2018. The increase in net sales was the result of a $20.2 million increase in production ramps of new products for existing customers, a $4.2 million increase in production ramps for new customers and overall net increased customer end-market demand.

Questions:
text: 6. Inventories
text: Inventories at April 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, consisted of the following (in thousands):
text: For the year ended April 30, 2018, the Company recorded a non-cash write-down of approximately $5.6 million of inventory. Inventory write-down resulted from two principal factors: (1) adoption by satellite manufacturers of policies precluding the use of parts and components over ten years old. This policy was unanticipated and resulted in reduced likelihood of FEI being able to use inventory that exceeds that threshold, and (2) changing technology associated with the advanced analog-to-digital converters which enables direct synthesis of certain frequencies for which FEI previously provided frequency conversion technology, reducing the likelihood that some parts and components associated with frequency conversion will be usable. Additionally, the Company’s new inventory reserve policy resulted in a charge of $1.1 million in the fiscal year ended April 30, 2019. Inventory reserves included in inventory were $6.6 million and $5.5 million for the fiscal years ended April 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
