Employee Share Purchase Plan (ESPP)
The Company estimates the fair value of its ESPP share options on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, which requires the use of highly subjective estimates and assumptions. The Company estimates the expected term of ESPP share options based on the length of each offering period, which is six months.
The risk-free interest rate is based on a treasury instrument whose term is consistent with the expected life of the ESPP share option. Expected volatility is based on the Company’s historical volatility. The Company uses an expected dividend rate of zero as it currently has no history or expectation of paying dividends on its ordinary shares.
The grant date fair value per ordinary share is based on the closing market value of its ordinary shares on the first day of each ESPP offering period. The first authorized offering period under the ESPP commenced on July 1, 2017.
The fair value of each ESPP option grant was estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model that used the following weighted-average assumptions:
The weighted-average per share fair value of ESPP share options granted to employees during the years ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, was $9.58 and $6.41, respectively.

Research and Development (“R&D”), Sales and Marketing, and General and Administrative (“G&A”) Expenses
R&D, sales and marketing, and G&A expenses are summarized in the following table (in millions, except percentages):
R&D Expenses R&D expenses increased due to higher headcount-related expenses and, to a lesser extent, higher acquisition-related costs, higher contracted services and higher discretionary spending.
We continue to invest in R&D in order to bring a broad range of products to market in a timely fashion. If we believe that we are unable to enter a particular market in a timely manner with internally developed products, we may purchase or license technology from other businesses, or we may partner with or acquire businesses as an alternative to internal R&D.
Sales and Marketing Expenses Sales and marketing expenses increased due to higher headcount-related expenses, higher discretionary spending and, to a lesser extent, higher contracted services and higher acquisition-related costs, partially offset by lower share-based compensation expense.
G&A Expenses G&A expenses decreased due to a benefit from the $400 million litigation settlement with Arista Networks and lower contracted services, partially offset by higher discretionary spending and higher headcount-related expenses.
Effect of Foreign Currency In fiscal 2019, foreign currency fluctuations, net of hedging, decreased the combined R&D, sales and marketing, and G&A expenses by approximately $233 million, or 1.3%, compared with fiscal 2018. In fiscal 2018, foreign currency fluctuations, net of hedging, increased the combined R&D, sales and marketing, and G&A expenses by approximately $93 million, or 0.5%, compared with fiscal 2017.

Uncertain Tax Positions
As of December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017, we had gross unrecognized tax benefits of $4.4 million, $4.2 million
and $3.8 million, respectively. Accrued interest expense related to unrecognized tax benefits is recognized as part of
our income tax provision in our consolidated statements of operations and is immaterial for the years ended
December 31, 2019 and 2018. Our policy for classifying interest and penalties associated with unrecognized income
tax benefits is to include such items in income tax expense.
The activity related to the unrecognized tax benefits is as follows (in thousands):
These amounts are related to certain deferred tax assets with a corresponding valuation allowance. As ofDecember 31, 2019, the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits, if recognized, that would affect the effective taxrate is $1.0 million. We do not anticipate a material change to our unrecognized tax benefits over the next twelvemonths. Unrecognized tax benefits may change during the next twelve months for items that arise in the ordinarycourse of business.
We are subject to taxation in the United States, various states, and several foreign jurisdictions. Because we havenet operating loss and credit carryforwards, there are open statutes of limitations in which federal, state and foreigntaxing authorities may examine our tax returns for all years from 2005 through the current period. We are notcurrently under examination by any taxing authorities.
