ENDWAVE
CORPORATION

|
Business
and Basis of Presentation
|
Endwave Corporation (Endwave or the
Company) designs, manufactures and markets radio
frequency (RF), products that enable the
transmission, reception and processing of high frequency RF
signals. The Companys products consist of two key product
lines, semiconductor devices and integrated transceiver modules:
|
|
|
|
|
The Companys semiconductor product line consists of a wide
variety of monolithic microwave integrated circuits
(MMICs), including amplifiers, voltage controlled
oscillators, up and down converters, variable gain amplifiers,
voltage variable attenuators, fixed attenuators and filters.
These types of devices are widely used in telecommunications,
satellite, defense, security, instrumentation, scientific and
consumer systems. While the Company has developed, produced and
sold such devices for several years as components of the
Companys module products, they were first offered for sale
as stand-alone products in the latter part of 2009 and they have
not yet become a significant source of revenue for the Company.
|
|
|
|
The Companys integrated transceiver modules combine
several electronic functions into a single RF
sub-system.
Historically, the Companys main customers for these
products have been telecommunication network original equipment
manufacturers and system integrators that utilize them in
digital microwave radios. More recently the Company has
identified and pursued uses for these products in additional
product areas; however these alternate applications have not yet
become a significant source of revenue for the Company.
|
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements of Endwave have been prepared in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America and with the instructions to
Form 10-Q
and Article 10 of
Regulation S-X.
Accordingly, they do not contain all of the information and
footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America for complete financial
statements. The year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet
data was derived from the Companys audited consolidated
financial statements, but does not include all disclosures
required by accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America. In the opinion of management, the
information contained herein reflects all adjustments,
consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, considered
necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the interim
periods presented. Operating results for the periods presented
are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be
expected for the year ending December 31, 2011 or any
future periods. These condensed consolidated financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the Companys
audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended
December 31, 2010.
Proposed
Merger with GigOptix
On February 4, 2011, Endwave entered into an Agreement and
Plan of Merger with GigOptix, Inc. (GigOptix), and
Aerie Acquisition Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of
GigOptix (Merger Subsidiary), pursuant to which
Merger Subsidiary will, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of
the conditions therein, merge with and into Endwave, the
separate corporate existence of Merger Subsidiary shall cease
and Endwave will be the surviving corporation of the merger and
a wholly-owned subsidiary of GigOptix. This agreement is
referred to as the Merger Agreement and the proposed merger
contemplated by the Merger Agreement as the Merger.
Upon the consummation of the Merger, (i) the outstanding
shares of Endwave common stock will be converted into the right
to receive an aggregate number of shares of GigOptix common
stock equal to the product of
(.425/.575)
and the number of shares of GigOptix common stock outstanding
immediately prior to consummation of the Merger, less 42.5% of
the shares described in clause (ii) of this sentence and
(ii) in-the-money
options to acquire Endwave common stock outstanding immediately
prior to the consummation of the Merger will be converted into
that number of shares of GigOptix common stock determined by
dividing the spread value of such options at closing by the
closing price of GigOptixs common stock on the trading day
prior to closing, such that following the Merger, the pre-Merger
holders of common stock and restricted stock units will own that
number of

CORPORATION
NOTES TO
CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
shares equal to 42.5% of the outstanding stock of the combined
company, less 42.5% of the shares issued in respect of Endwave
stock options.
The Merger Agreement includes customary representations,
warranties and covenants of Endwave and GigOptix. Endwave has
agreed to conduct its operations and the operations of its
subsidiaries according to its ordinary and usual course of
business consistent with past practice until the effective time
of the Merger. The Merger Agreement contains customary
no-solicitation covenants pursuant to which neither
Endwave nor GigOptix is permitted to solicit any alternative
acquisition proposals, provide any information to any person in
connection with any alternative acquisition proposal,
participate in any discussions or negotiations relating to any
alternative acquisition proposal, approve, endorse or recommend
any alternative acquisition proposal, or enter into any
agreement relating to any alternative acquisition proposal. The
no-solicitation provision is subject to certain
exceptions that permit the Board of Directors of each of Endwave
and GigOptix, as the case may be, to comply with their
respective fiduciary duties, which, under certain circumstances,
would enable Endwave or GigOptix, as the case may be, to provide
information to, and engage in discussions or negotiations with,
third parties with respect to alternative acquisition proposals.
The Merger Agreement contains certain termination rights for
both Endwave and GigOptix and further provides that, upon
termination of the Merger Agreement under certain circumstances,
Endwave may be obligated to pay GigOptix a termination fee of
$1,000,000 plus certain reasonable documented expenses of
GigOptix.
The Merger which is subject to regulatory approvals as well as
approvals by the stockholders of Endwave is expected to close
during the second quarter of 2011.
The following fair value amounts have been determined using
available market information.

At March 31, 2011, the Company had $11.9 million of
short-term investments with maturities of less than one year and
no long-term investments.

ENDWAVE
CORPORATION
NOTES TO
CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
At March 31, 2011, the Company had unrealized gains of
$5,000 related to $9.5 million of investments in United
States government agency bonds and no unrealized losses.
Unrealized gains and losses on commercial paper and corporate
security investments were immaterial as of March 31, 2011.
The investments mature during 2011 and the Company believes that
it has the ability to hold these investments until the maturity
date. Realized gains and losses were insignificant for the three
months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010.
The Company reviews its investment portfolio to identify and
evaluate investments that have indications of possible
impairment. Factors considered in determining whether a loss is
temporary include the length of time and extent to which fair
value has been less than the cost basis, credit quality and the
Companys ability to hold the investment for a period of
time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in market
value. If the Company believes the carrying value of an
investment is in excess of its fair value, and this difference
is
other-than-temporary,
it is the Companys policy to write down the investment to
reduce its carrying value to fair value.

The Companys financial assets and liabilities are valued
using market prices on both active markets
(Level 1) and less active markets (Level 2).
Level 1 instrument valuations are obtained from real-time
quotes for transactions in active exchange markets involving
identical assets. Level 2 instrument valuations are
obtained from readily-available pricing sources for comparable
instruments. As of March 31, 2011, the Company did not have
any assets or liabilities without observable market values that
would require a high level of judgment to determine fair value
(Level 3).
As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the
Company did not have any significant transfers of investments
between Level 1 and Level 2.
The amounts reported as cash and cash equivalents, accounts
receivable, note receivable, accounts payable and accrued
warranty, compensation and other liabilities approximate fair
value due to their short-term maturities. The fair value for the
Companys investments in marketable debt securities is
estimated based on quoted market prices and are the only
financial instruments required to be adjusted to fair market
value on a recurring basis. Based upon

The warranty periods for the Companys products are between
12 and 30 months from the date of shipment. The Company
provides for estimated warranty expense at the time of shipment.
While the Company engages in extensive product quality programs
and processes, including actively monitoring and evaluating the
quality of component suppliers, its warranty obligation is
affected by product failure rates, material usage and service
delivery costs incurred in correcting a product failure. Should
actual product failure rates, material usage or service delivery
costs differ from the estimates, revisions to the estimated
warranty accrual and related costs may be required.
Changes in the Companys product warranty liability during
the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 are as

During the first quarter of 2011, the Company undertook certain
restructuring activities to reduce expenses. The Company vacated
its facilities in Salem, New Hampshire and terminated
12 employees in order to reduce the Companys cost
structure. The employee terminations affected all areas of the
Companys operations. The components of the $804,000
restructuring charges included the following: $527,000 for
severance, benefits and payroll taxes, $18,000 for the
incremental fair value as a result of the acceleration of
certain stock awards for the affected personnel, $203,000 for
facilities charges related to exiting the lease in Salem, New
Hampshire and a $56,000 loss on disposal of fixed assets for
impaired leasehold improvements and equipment related to the
closure of the Salem facility.
The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment, whenever
certain events or changes in circumstances indicate that the
carrying amount of these assets may not be recoverable. During
the first quarter of 2011, the Company recognized a non-cash
$56,000 loss on disposal of fixed assets for impaired leasehold
improvements and

equipment related to the closure of the Salem facility. This
impairment charge was included in the restructuring expenses in
the Companys condensed consolidated statement of
operations.
The Company incurred cash charges of approximately $730,000
related to its first quarter 2011 restructuring activities for
severance, benefits, payroll taxes and facilities charges and
the payments are expected to be substantially completed by the
end of the fourth quarter of 2011. The charges related to the
acceleration of stock awards and the loss on disposal of fixed
assets are non-cash charges.

At December 31, 2010, $431,000 and $234,000 of accrued
restructuring charges are included in current liabilities and
long-term liabilities, respectively, on the consolidated balance
sheet.
At March 31, 2011, $926,000 and $115,000 of accrued
restructuring charges were included in current liabilities and
long-term liabilities, respectively, on the condensed
consolidated balance sheet. Of the $1.0 million in total
accrued restructuring, approximately $530,000 is related to the
first quarter 2011 restructuring plan and $511,000 is related to
the restructuring liability for a senior executive which was
recognized in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2009.
The restructuring liability related to a senior executive was
recorded at its fair value based on an assumed interest rate of
5.0%, which represents the current market rate of interest at
which the Company could borrow, due to the long-term nature of
the liability. The Company will recognize interest expense
associated with amortizing the $77,000 discount on this
liability over the 30 month term of the restructuring
payout. During the first three months of 2011 and 2010, the
Company recognized interest expense of $9,000 and $13,000,
respectively. The payments for the restructuring liability
related to a senior executive are expected to be completed by
end of the second quarter of 2012, but if the proposed Merger is
completed, the payments will be accelerated to coincide with the
closing of the Merger.
The Companys restructuring estimates will be reviewed and
revised quarterly and may result in an increase or decrease to
restructuring charges. During the first quarter of 2010, the
Company recorded a $14,000 positive adjustment as a result of
lower benefit charges in connection with our first quarter 2009
restructuring plan than were originally anticipated. No
adjustments were recorded during the first quarter of 2011.

On October 31, 2008, the Company filed a complaint with the
Canadian Superior Court in Montreal, Quebec alleging that
Advantech, the parent company of Allgon Microwave Corporation
AB, had breached its contractual obligations with Endwave and
owes the Company $994,500 for amounts outstanding under a note
receivable and for purchased inventory and authorized finished
goods purchase orders. The Company cannot predict the outcome of
these proceedings. At the time of default, the note receivable
balance was $420,000. Based on Allgons bankruptcy

liquidation and the related estimates of payments to
Allgons creditors, the Company still continues to reserve
100%, or $420,000, of the remaining balance of the note
receivable.
Other than the complaint against Advantech, the Company is not
currently a party to any material litigation.
As discussed in the restructuring footnote, the Company vacated
its facilities in Salem, New Hampshire during the first quarter
of 2011 and as a result will incur an early termination charge
for exiting the lease. The following table summarizes the
Companys updated operating lease obligations including the

Preferred
Stock and Warrant Purchase Agreement
The Company had 5,000,000 shares of convertible preferred
stock authorized as of March 31, 2011 and December 31,
2010.
In April 2006, the Company entered into a purchase agreement
with Oak Investment Partners XI, Limited Partnership
(Oak). Pursuant to the purchase agreement, Oak
purchased 300,000 shares of the Companys
Series B preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share, for
$150 per preferred share, or a total of $45.0 million. The
preferred shares were convertible into 3,000,000 shares of
common stock, for an effective purchase price of $15 per common
share equivalent. The Company also issued Oak a warrant granting
Oak the right to purchase an additional 90,000 shares of
Series B preferred stock at an exercise price of $150 per
share. The warrant expired on April 24, 2009. The Company
received net proceeds of $43.1 million from the sale of the
Series B preferred stock and the warrant after the payment
of legal fees and other expenses, including commissions.
On January 21, 2010, the Company repurchased all 300,000
outstanding shares of its preferred stock held by Oak for $120
per share, or a total of $36.0 million in cash. The total
cost of the repurchase was $36.2 million, which included
fees and expenses. The 300,000 outstanding shares represented
3,000,000 shares of Endwave common stock on an as-converted
basis. Such shares had entitled Oak to a liquidation preference
equal to its original investment of $45.0 million before
any proceeds from a liquidation or sale of the Company would
have been paid to the holders of Endwaves common stock. In
connection with the share repurchase, Eric Stonestrom,
Oaks designee to Endwaves board of directors,
resigned from the board of directors.
Since the Company repurchased the preferred stock for official
retirement, the excess of the stated value, $43.1 million,
over the effective repurchase price of $36.2 million was
credited to additional paid-in capital.
Stock
Based Compensation
Stock-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date,
based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized as
expense over the requisite service period. All of the
Companys stock compensation is accounted for as an equity
instrument.

During the three months ended March 31, 2011, the Company
granted options to purchase 19,200 shares of common stock
with an estimated grant-date fair value of $27,000 or $1.41 per
share. Of this amount, the Company estimated that the
stock-based compensation expense of the awards not expected to
vest was $4,000. During the three months ended March 31,
2011, the Company did not grant restricted stock units.
During the three months ended March 31, 2011, the Company
fully accelerated the vesting of options to purchase
47,053 shares of common stock and 9,430 restricted stock
units in connection with certain restructuring activities. The
Company recorded additional stock-based compensation expense of
$18,000 relating to the incremental value of these fully vested
modified awards in restructuring expense on the Companys
condensed consolidated statement of operations.
During the three months ended March 31, 2010, the Company
granted options to purchase 269,600 shares of common stock
with an estimated grant-date fair value of $403,000 or $1.49 per
share. Of this amount, the Company estimated that the
stock-based compensation expense of the awards not expected to
vest was $68,000.
During the three months ended March 31, 2010, the Company
granted 138,000 restricted stock units with an estimated
grant-date fair value of $356,000 or $2.58 per share. Of this
amount, the Company estimated that the stock-based compensation
expense of the awards not expected to vest was $42,000.
As of March 31, 2011, the unrecorded stock-based
compensation balance related to all stock options was $292,000,
net of estimated forfeitures, and will be recognized over an
estimated weighted-average service period of 1.3 years. As
of March 31, 2011, the unrecorded stock-based compensation
balance related to all restricted stock was $197,000, net of
estimated forfeitures, and will be recognized over an estimated
weighted-average service period of 0.9 years. As of
March 31, 2011, the unrecorded stock-based compensation
balance related to the employee stock purchase plan was $66,000,
net of estimated forfeitures, and will be recognized over an

There were no enrollments or shares issued under the employee
stock purchase plan for the three months ended March 31,
2011 or 2010.
The dividend yield of zero is based on the fact that the Company
has never paid cash dividends and has no present intention to
pay cash dividends. Expected volatility is based on the
combination of historical volatility of the Companys
common stock and the expected future volatility over the period
commensurate with the expected life of the options and other
factors. The risk-free interest rates are taken from the Daily
Federal Yield Curve Rates as of the grant dates as published by
the Federal Reserve and represent the yields on actively traded
Treasury securities for terms equal to the expected term of the
options. The expected term calculation is based on the
Companys observed historical option exercise behavior and
post-vesting cancellations of options by employees.
The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the three
months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 was $10,000 and
$39,000, respectively.
Equity
Incentive Program
The Companys equity incentive program is a broad-based,
long-term retention program designed to align stockholder and
employee interests. Under the Companys equity incentive
program, stock options generally have a vesting period of four
years, are exercisable for a period not to exceed ten years from
the date of issuance and are generally granted at prices not
less than the fair market value of the Companys common
stock at the grant date. Under the Companys equity
incentive program, restricted stock units generally have a
vesting period of two years.

At March 31, 2011, the Company had 125,238 restricted stock
units vested and expected to vest with a weighted average
remaining contractual term of 0.7 years and an aggregate
intrinsic value of $297,000.
At March 31, 2011, the Company had 5,158,966 shares

Employee
Stock Purchase Plan
In October 2000, the Company established the Endwave Corporation
Employee Stock Purchase Plan. All employees who work a minimum
of 20 hours per week and are customarily employed by the
Company (or an affiliate thereof) for at least five months per
calendar year are eligible to participate. Under this plan,
employees may purchase shares of common stock through payroll
deductions of up to 15% of their earnings with a limit of
3,000 shares per offering period under the plan. The price
paid for the Companys common stock purchased under the
plan is equal to 85% of the lower of the fair market value of
the Companys common stock on the date of commencement of
participation by an employee in an offering under the plan or
the date of purchase. The compensation cost in connection with
the purchase plan for the three months ended March 31, 2011
and 2010 was $30,000 and $75,000, respectively. There were no
shares issued under the purchase plan during the three months

ended March 31, 2011 or 2010. At March 31, 2011, there
were 446,473 shares available for purchase under the
purchase plan.
Basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net
income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding for the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share
is computed by dividing the net income (loss) for the period by
the weighted average number of shares of common stock and
potential common stock equivalents outstanding during the
period, if dilutive. Potential common stock equivalents include
options to purchase common stock, unvested restricted stock
units and shares to be purchased in connection with the
Companys employee stock purchase plan.
Potential dilutive common shares of 1,374,196 as of
March 31, 2011 and 1,357,965 as of March 31, 2010 from
the assumed exercise of stock options, unvested restricted stock
units and shares issuable under the Companys employee
stock purchase plan were not included in the net loss per share
calculations, as the Company incurred net losses for all periods
presented and the inclusion of such shares would have been
anti-dilutive. As a result, diluted net loss per share is the
same as basic net loss per share for all periods presented.
Comprehensive loss generally represents all changes in
stockholders equity except those resulting from
investments or contributions by stockholders. The Companys
unrealized gains and losses on its
available-for-sale
securities represent the only components of comprehensive loss
excluded from the reported net loss and are displayed in the
statements of stockholders equity.

Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
|
In July 2010 the Financial Accounting Standards Board
(FASB) issued new standards which amend the
receivable disclosure requirements, including the credit quality
of financing receivables and the allowance for credit losses.
These standards require additional disclosures that will
facilitate financial statement users evaluation of the
nature of credit risk inherent in financing receivables, how
that risk is analyzed in arriving at the allowance for credit
losses, and the reason for any changes in the allowance for
credit losses. These new standards are required to be adopted
for interim and annual reporting periods beginning on or after
December 15, 2010. The Company adopted these standards
which did not have a material impact on its consolidated
financial statements.

Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations

The following discussion and analysis should be read in
conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial
statements, related notes and Risk Factors section
included elsewhere in this report on
Form 10-Q,
as well as the information contained under Risk
Factors, Managements Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and our
consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto in our
Annual Report on
Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2010. In addition to
historical consolidated financial information, this discussion
contains forward-looking statements that involve known and
unknown risks and uncertainties, including statements regarding
our expectations, beliefs, intentions or strategies regarding
the future. All forward-looking statements included in this
report are based on information available to us on the date
hereof, and we assume no obligation to update any such
forward-looking statements. Our actual results could differ
materially from those discussed in the forward-looking
statements. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on
these forward-looking statements. In the past, our operating
results have fluctuated and are likely to continue to fluctuate
in the future.
The terms we, us, our and
words of similar import below refer to Endwave Corporation.
Overview
We design, manufacture and market radio frequency, or RF,
products that enable the transmission, reception and processing
of high frequency RF signals.
Our products consist of two key product lines, semiconductor
devices and integrated transceiver modules:
|
|
|
|
|
Our semiconductor product line consists of a wide variety of
monolithic microwave integrated circuits, or MMICs, including
amplifiers, voltage controlled oscillators, up and down
converters, variable gain amplifiers, voltage variable
attenuators, fixed attenuators and filters. These types of
devices are widely used in telecommunications, satellite,
defense, security, instrumentation, scientific and consumer
systems. While we have developed, produced and sold such devices
for several years as components of our module products, we first
offered them for sale as stand-alone products in the latter part
of 2009 and they have not yet become a significant source of
revenue for us.
|
|
|
|
Our integrated transceiver modules combine several electronic
functions into a single RF
sub-system.
Historically, our main customers for these products have been
telecommunication network original equipment manufacturers, or
OEMs, and system integrators that utilize them in digital
microwave radios. More recently we have identified and pursued
uses for these products in additional product areas; however
these alternate applications have not yet become a significant
source of revenue for us.

Proposed
Merger with GigOptix
On February 4, 2011, we entered into an Agreement and Plan
of Merger with GigOptix, Inc., or GigOptix, and Aerie
Acquisition Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of GigOptix,
which we refer to as the Merger Subsidiary, pursuant to which
Merger Subsidiary will, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of
the conditions therein, merge with and into Endwave, the
separate corporate existence of Merger Subsidiary shall cease
and Endwave will be the surviving corporation of the merger and
a wholly-owned subsidiary of GigOptix. We refer to this
agreement as the Merger Agreement and the proposed merger
contemplated by the Merger Agreement as the Merger. Upon the
consummation of the Merger, (i) the outstanding shares of
Endwave common stock will be converted into the right to receive
an aggregate number of shares of GigOptix common stock equal to
the product of (.425/.575) and the number of shares of GigOptix
common stock outstanding immediately prior to consummation of
the Merger, less 42.5% of the shares described in
clause (ii) of this sentence and
(ii) in-the-money
options to acquire Endwave common stock outstanding immediately
prior to the consummation of the Merger will be converted into
that number of shares of GigOptix common stock determined by
dividing the spread value of such options at closing by the
closing price of GigOptixs common stock on the trading day
prior to closing, such that following the Merger, the pre-Merger
holders of common stock and restricted stock units will own that
number of shares equal to 42.5% of the outstanding stock of the
combined company, less 42.5% of the shares issued in respect of
Endwave stock options.
17
The Merger Agreement includes customary representations,
warranties and covenants of Endwave and GigOptix. Endwave has
agreed to conduct its operations and the operations of its
subsidiaries according to its ordinary and usual course of
business consistent with past practice until the effective time
of the Merger. The Merger Agreement contains customary
no-solicitation covenants pursuant to which neither
Endwave nor GigOptix is permitted to solicit any alternative
acquisition proposals, provide any information to any person in
connection with any alternative acquisition proposal,
participate in any discussions or negotiations relating to any
alternative acquisition proposal, approve, endorse or recommend
any alternative acquisition proposal, or enter into any
agreement relating to any alternative acquisition proposal. The
no-solicitation provision is subject to certain
exceptions that permit the Board of Directors of each of Endwave
and GigOptix, as the case may be, to comply with their
respective fiduciary duties, which, under certain circumstances,
would enable Endwave or GigOptix, as the case may be, to provide
information to, and engage in discussions or negotiations with,
third parties with respect to alternative acquisition proposals.
The Merger Agreement contains certain termination rights for
both Endwave and GigOptix and further provides that, upon
termination of the Merger Agreement under certain circumstances,
Endwave may be obligated to pay GigOptix a termination fee of
$1,000,000 plus certain reasonable documented expenses of
GigOptix.
We currently expect to complete the Merger in the second quarter
of 2011. GigOptixs and Endwaves obligations to
consummate the Merger are subject to the satisfaction or waiver
of customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals, as
well as the approval of the merger by the stockholders of
Endwave.

Total revenues primarily consist of product revenues for sales
of our transceiver module and semiconductor products.
During the three months ended March 31, 2011, total
revenues decreased by $3.6 million, or 74%, compared to the
same period in 2010. During 2010, our customers faced increasing
competition, which we believe has resulted in their loss of
market share. The decline in our customers market share
has led to decreased demand for our products and contributed to
the reduced revenues we experienced in 2010 and the first
quarter of 2011. In addition, total revenues decreased during
the first three months of 2011 because we experienced
operational delays as a result of a delay in receiving
regulatory approval for export of certain of our transceiver
modules. This approval has since been obtained and we expect to
make all delayed shipments in the second quarter.
We believe our 2011 revenues will likely be below our 2010
revenues because we are uncertain about our customers
ability to regain market share given the competitive nature of
the industry.

Cost of product revenues consists primarily of: costs of direct
materials; equipment depreciation; costs associated with
procurement, production control, quality assurance and
manufacturing engineering; fees paid to our offshore
manufacturing vendor; reserves for potential excess or obsolete
material; costs related to stock-based compensation; and accrued
costs associated with potential warranty returns offset by the
benefit of usage of materials that were previously written off.
During the first three months of 2011, the cost of product
revenues was $1.0 million compared to $3.4 million in
the first three months of 2010. The decrease in dollars for the
cost of product revenues was primarily due to decreased revenue.
During the first three months of 2011, our inventory reserves
increased by a net $124,000, which was primarily due to an
increase in reserves for excess materials partially offset by a
utilization of inventory that was previously written off.
During the first three months of 2010, the cost of product
revenues favorably impacted by the utilization of inventory that
was previously written off was approximately $10,000.
We continue to focus on reducing the cost of product revenues as
a percentage of total revenues through the introduction of new
designs and technology and further improvements to our offshore
manufacturing processes. In addition, our product costs are
impacted by the mix and volume of products sold and will
continue to fluctuate as a result.

labor, depreciation for related equipment, allocated facilities
costs and expenses related to stock-based compensation.
19
During the first three months of 2011, research and development
costs were $1.3 million compared to $1.0 million in
the first three months of 2010. The increase in research and
development costs was primarily due to a $281,000 increase for
project-related expenses and a $93,000 increase in
personnel-related expenses which were partially offset by an
$86,000 decrease in stock-based compensation.

During the first three months of 2011, sales and marketing costs
were $474,000 compared to $584,000 in the first three months of
2010. The decrease in sales and marketing costs was primarily
due to a $96,000 decrease in personnel-related expenses.

General and administrative consist primarily of salaries and
related expenses for executive, finance, accounting, legal,
information technology and human resources personnel,
professional fees, facilities costs, and expenses related to
stock-based compensation.
During the first three months of 2011, general and
administrative costs were $1.5 million compared to
$1.1 million in the first three months of 2010. The
increase in general and administrative costs was primarily due
to $488,000 of transaction costs related to the proposed Merger
which were partially offset by a $61,000 decrease in
professional fees, a $30,000 decrease in public company-related
expenses and a $28,000 decrease in stock-based compensation.
During the second quarter of 2011, we expect additional
Merger-related general and administrative expenses to continue
as we complete the proposed Merger.

During the first quarter of 2011, we undertook certain
restructuring activities to reduce expenses. We vacated our
facilities in Salem, New Hampshire and terminated
12 employees in order to reduce our cost structure. The
employee terminations affected all areas of our operations. The
components of the $804,000 restructuring charges included the
following: $527,000 for severance, benefits and payroll taxes,
$18,000 for the incremental fair value as a result of the
acceleration of certain stock awards for the affected personnel,
$203,000 for facilities charges related
20
to exiting the lease in Salem, New Hampshire and a $56,000 loss
on disposal of fixed assets for impaired leasehold improvements
and equipment related to the closure of the Salem facility.
We incurred cash charges of approximately $730,000 related to
our first quarter 2011 restructuring activities for severance,
benefits, payroll taxes and facilities charges and the payments
are expected to be substantially completed by the end of the
fourth quarter of 2011. The charges related to the acceleration
of stock awards and the loss on disposal of fixed assets are
non-cash charges.
During the first quarter of 2010, we recorded a $14,000 positive
adjustment as a result of lower benefit charges in connection
with our first quarter 2009 restructuring plan than were
originally anticipated. No adjustments were recorded during the
first quarter of 2011.

Interest and other income (expense), net consists primarily of
interest income earned on our cash, cash equivalents and
investments, gains and losses related to foreign currency
transactions and interest expense imputed for a long-term
restructuring liability.
The decrease in the dollar value of interest and other income
(expense), net during the three months ended March 31,
2011, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010,
was primarily the result of decreased banking fees related to
our investments.
During the first three months of 2011, we earned $15,000 of
interest income, which was offset by interest expense for a
long-term restructuring liability, banking charges and losses on
foreign currency transactions. During the first three months of
2010, we earned $21,000 of interest income, which was offset by
interest expense for a long-term restructuring liability,
banking charges and losses on foreign currency transactions.
Our functional currency is the U.S. Dollar. Transactions in
foreign currencies other than the functional currency are
remeasured into the functional currency at the time of the
transaction. Foreign currency transaction losses consist of the
remeasurement gains and losses that arise from exchange rate
fluctuations related to our operations in Thailand. During the
first three months of 2011 and 2010, we recorded foreign
currency transaction losses of $2,000 and $3,000, respectively.

During the first three months of 2011, operating activities used
$2.1 million of cash as compared to $436,000 during the
first three months of 2010. Our net loss adjusted for
depreciation and other non-cash items, was $3.4 million
during the first three months of 2011 as compared to $663,000
during the first quarter of 2010. During the first three months
of 2011, the remaining provision of $1.3 million in cash
was primarily due to a $1.3 million decrease in accounts
receivable, a $185,000 increase in accrued compensation,
restructuring, other current and other long-term liabilities and
a $178,000 decrease in other assets, which were partially offset
by a $276,000 decrease in accounts payable and a $134,000
decrease in accrued warranty. During the first three months of
2010, the remaining provision of $227,000 in cash was primarily
due to a $681,000 increase in accounts payable and a $375,000
decrease in accounts receivable which were partially offset by a
$658,000 increase in inventories and a $291,000 decrease in
accrued compensation, restructuring, other current and other
long-term liabilities.
During the first three months of 2011, investing activities
provided cash of $4.3 million as compared to
$1.7 million of cash in the first three months of 2010. The
primary source of cash during the first three months of 2011 was
net sales and maturities of investments of $4.5 million,
partially offset by the purchase of leasehold improvements and
equipment of $163,000. The primary source of cash during the
first three months of 2010 was net sales and maturities of
investments of $2.0 million, partially offset by the
purchase of leasehold improvements and equipment of $345,000.
During the first three months of 2011, financing activities
provided $24,000 of cash primarily due to the proceeds from the
exercise of employee stock options which were partially offset
by payment of capital leases. Financing activities used
$36.2 million of cash during the first three months of 2010
primarily due to the $36.2 million repurchase of our
preferred stock.
At March 31, 2011, we had a net unrealized gain of $5,000
related to $9.5 million of investments in fourteen debt
securities. The increase in the value of these investments is
primarily related to changes in interest rates. The investments
all mature during 2011 and we believe that we have the ability
to hold these investments until the maturity date. We recorded a
foreign currency transaction loss of $2,000 and $3,000 during
the first three months of 2011 and 2010, respectively.
We believe that our existing cash and investment balances will
be sufficient to meet our operating and capital requirements for
at least the next 12 months. With the exception of
operating leases discussed in the notes to the consolidated
financial statements included in this report, we have not
entered into any off-balance sheet financing arrangements and we
have not established or invested in any variable interest
entities. We have not guaranteed the debt or obligations of
other entities or entered into options on non-financial assets.

Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
In July 2010 the Financial Accounting Standards Board
(FASB) issued new standards which amend the
receivable disclosure requirements, including the credit quality
of financing receivables and the allowance for credit losses.
These standards require additional disclosures that will
facilitate financial statement users evaluation of the
nature of credit risk inherent in financing receivables, how
that risk is analyzed in arriving at the allowance for credit
losses, and the reason for any changes in the allowance for
credit losses. These new standards are required to be adopted
for interim and annual reporting periods beginning on or after
December 15, 2010. We adopted these standards which did not
have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
|
|
Item 3.
|
Quantitative
and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
|
There have been no material changes in our reported market risks
since our report on market risks in our Annual Report on
Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2010 under the heading
corresponding to that set forth above. Our exposure to market
risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to our
investment portfolio. In order to reduce this interest rate
risk, we usually invest our cash primarily in investments with
short maturities. As of March 31, 2011, our investments in
our portfolio were classified as cash equivalents and short-term
investments. The cash equivalents and short-term investments
consisted primarily of United States Treasury note, United
States government agency notes, United States government money
market funds, commercial papers and corporate notes. Since our
investments consist of cash equivalents and short-term
investments, a change in interest rates would not have a
material effect on our financial condition or results of
operations. Declines in interest rates over time will, however,
reduce interest income.
Currently, all sales to international customers are denominated
in United States dollars and, accordingly we are not exposed to
foreign currency rate risks in connection with these sales.
However, if the dollar were to strengthen relative to other
currencies that could make our products less competitive in
foreign markets and thereby lead to a decrease in revenues
attributable to international customers.
We currently pay a number of expenses related to our Thai
personnel and office in Thai Bhat. During the first quarter of
2011, the total payments made in Thai Bhat were $297,000 and we
recorded a related foreign currency transaction loss of $2,000.
During the first quarter of 2010, the total payments made in
Thai Bhat were $199,000 and we recorded a related foreign
currency transaction loss of $3,000.

Controls
and Procedures
|
|
|
(a)
|
Evaluation
of disclosure controls and procedures.
|
Based on their evaluation as of the end of the period covered by
this Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q,
our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have
concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as
defined in
Rules 13a-15(e)
and
15d-15(e)
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the
Exchange Act) were effective as of the end of the period covered
by this report.
Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide
reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, and our
chief executive officer and our chief financial officer have
concluded that these controls and procedures are effective at
the reasonable assurance level. We believe that a
control system, no matter how well designed and operated, cannot
provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the control
system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide
absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of
fraud, if any, within a company have been detected.
|
|
(b)
|
Changes
in internal controls over financial reporting.
|
There were no changes in our internal controls over financial
reporting that occurred during the period covered by this
Quarterly Report on
Form 10-Q
that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to
materially affect, our internal controls over financial
reporting.

PART II.
OTHER INFORMATION

|
Item 1.
|
Legal
Proceedings
|
On October 31, 2008, we filed a complaint with the Canadian
Superior Court in Montreal, Quebec alleging that Advantech
Advanced Microwave Technologies Inc., or Advantech, the parent
company of Allgon Microwave Corporation AB, or Allgon, had
breached its contractual obligations with Endwave and owes us
$994,500 for amounts outstanding under a note receivable and for
purchased inventory and authorized finished goods purchase
orders. We cannot predict the outcome of these proceedings.
The Company is not a party to any other material legal
proceeding which is expected to have a material adverse effect
on our consolidated financial statements or results of
operations. From time to time, we may be subject to legal
proceedings and claims in the ordinary course of business. These
claims, even if not meritorious, could result in the expenditure
of significant financial resources and diversion of management
efforts.
You should consider carefully the following risk factors as
well as other information in this report before investing in any
of our securities. If any of the following risks actually occur,
our business, operating results and financial condition could be
adversely affected. This could cause the market price of our
common stock to decline, and you may lose all or part of your
investment.
**Indicates risk factor has been updated since our Annual
Report on
Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2010.
Risks
Relating to the Merger with GigOptix
Because
the conversion ratio is not adjustable based on the market price
of either GigOptix or Endwave common stock, you cannot be sure
of the value of the merger consideration that you will
receive.
The number of shares of common stock to be issued by GigOptix in
the merger is not adjustable based on the market price of either
GigOptix or Endwave common stock and the merger agreement may
not be terminated as a result of any such changes. The market
value of the shares of GigOptix common stock that Endwave
stockholders will be entitled to receive when the merger is
completed will depend on the market value of shares of GigOptix
common stock at that time, which could vary significantly from
the market value of shares of GigOptix common stock on the date
the merger agreement was executed, the date of this report or
the date of the special meeting. Accordingly, at the time of the
special meeting, Endwave stockholders will not know or be able
to calculate the market value of the consideration they would
receive upon completion of the merger. These variations may
result from, among other factors, changes in the business,
operations, results and prospects of GigOptix, market
expectations of the likelihood that the merger will be completed
and the timing of completion, the prospects of post-merger
operations, the effect of any conditions or restrictions imposed
on or proposed with respect to GigOptix by regulatory agencies
and authorities, general market and economic conditions and
other factors.
GigOptix
may fail to realize the anticipated benefits of the
merger.**
GigOptix future success will depend in significant part on
its ability to utilize Endwaves cash and cash equivalents
and to realize the cost savings, operating efficiencies and new
revenue opportunities that it expects to result from the
integration of the GigOptix and Endwave businesses.
GigOptix operating results and financial condition will be
adversely affected if GigOptix is unable to integrate
successfully the operations of GigOptix and Endwave, fails to
achieve or achieve on a timely basis such cost savings,
operating efficiencies and new revenue opportunities, or incurs
unforeseen costs and expenses or experiences unexpected
operating difficulties that offset anticipated cost savings or
Endwaves cash and cash equivalents, in whole or in part.
In particular, the integration of GigOptix and Endwave may
involve, among other matters, integration of sales, marketing,
billing, accounting, manufacturing, engineering, management,
personnel, payroll, quality control, regulatory compliance,
network
24
infrastructure and other systems and operating hardware and
software, some of which may be incompatible and therefore may
need to be replaced.
The cost savings estimates expected to result from the merger do
not include one-time adjustments that GigOptix will record in
connection with the merger. In addition, the estimates are based
upon assumptions by the managements of GigOptix and Endwave
concerning a number of factors, including operating
efficiencies, the consolidation of functions, and the
integration of operations, systems, marketing methods and
procedures. These assumptions are uncertain and are subject to
significant business, economic and competitive conditions that
are difficult to predict and often beyond the control of
management.
Endwave
will be subject to business uncertainties and contractual
restrictions while the merger is pending that could adversely
affect its business.
Uncertainty about the effect of the merger on employees and
customers may have an adverse effect on Endwave and consequently
on GigOptix following the merger. These uncertainties may impair
each companys ability to attract, retain and motivate key
personnel until the merger is completed and for a period of time
thereafter, and could cause customers, suppliers and others that
deal with Endwave to seek to change existing business
relationships with Endwave. Employee retention may be
particularly challenging during the pendency of the merger, as
employees may experience uncertainty about their future roles
with Endwave. If, despite Endwaves retention efforts, key
employees depart because of issues relating to the uncertainty
and difficulty of integration or a desire not to remain with
Endwave, Endwaves business and consequently the business
of GigOptix following the merger could be seriously harmed.
Failure
to complete the merger could negatively affect GigOptix and
Endwave.
If the merger is not completed for any reason, GigOptix and
Endwave may be subject to a number of material risks, including
the following:
|
|
|
|
|
the companies will not realize the benefits expected from
becoming part of a combined company, including a potentially
enhanced competitive and financial position;
|
|
|
|
the trading price of each companys common stock may
decline to the extent that the current market price of the
common stock reflects a market assumption that the merger will
be completed; and
|
|
|
|
some costs related to the merger, such as legal, accounting and
some financial advisory fees, must be paid even if the merger is
not completed.
|
Endwaves
ability to pursue alternatives to the merger is
restricted.
The merger agreement contains customary
no-solicitation covenants pursuant to which neither
Endwave nor GigOptix is permitted to solicit any alternative
acquisition proposals, provide any information to any person in
connection with any alternative acquisition proposal,
participate in any discussions or negotiations relating to any
alternative acquisition proposal, approve, endorse or recommend
any alternative acquisition proposal, or enter into any
agreement relating to any alternative acquisition proposal. The
no-solicitation provision is subject to certain
exceptions that permit the board of directors of each of Endwave
and GigOptix, as the case may be, to comply with their
respective fiduciary duties, which, under certain circumstances,
would enable Endwave or GigOptix, as the case may be, to provide
information to, and engage in discussions or negotiations with,
third parties with respect to alternative acquisition proposals.
Upon termination of the merger agreement under certain
circumstances, Endwave may be obligated to pay GigOptix a
termination fee of $1,000,000 plus certain reasonable documented
expenses of GigOptix. These provisions could discourage a
potential acquiror that might have an interest in acquiring all
or a significant part of Endwave from considering or proposing
that acquisition, even if it were prepared to pay consideration
with a higher per share cash or market value than the
consideration GigOptix proposes to pay in the merger or might
result in a potential competing acquiror proposing to pay a
lower per share price to acquire Endwave than it might otherwise
have proposed to pay because of the added expense of the
termination fee that may become payable to GigOptix in certain
circumstances.
25
Endwave
stockholders will have reduced ownership and voting interests in
GigOptix and will be able to exercise less influence over
management following the merger.**
Immediately after the merger, based on the conversion ratios
contained in the merger agreement, the pre-merger holders of
Endwave common stock and restricted stock units will own that
number of shares equal to approximately 42.5% of the outstanding
stock of the combined company, less 42.5% of the shares issued
in the merger in respect of Endwave stock options. Consequently,
stockholders of Endwave will be able to exercise less influence
over the management and policies of GigOptix than they currently
exercise over the management and policies of Endwave.
There
may be a limited public market for shares of GigOptix common
stock, and the ability of its stockholders to dispose of their
common stock may be limited.**
GigOptix common stock has been traded on the OTC
Bulletin Board since December 2008. GigOptix cannot foresee
the degree of liquidity that will be associated with its common
stock. A holder of its common stock may not be able to liquidate
his, her or its investment in a short time period or at the
market prices that currently exist at the time the holder
decides to sell. The market price for GigOptix common
stock may fluctuate in the future, and such volatility may bear
no relation to its performance.
Substantial
future sales of GigOptix common stock in the public market
could cause GigOptix stock price to fall.**
The sale of GigOptix outstanding common stock or shares
issuable upon exercise of options or warrants, or the perception
that such sales could occur, could cause the market price of
GigOptix common stock to decline. As of April 28, 2011,
GigOptix had approximately 12,374,947 shares of common
stock, options to purchase 7,384,549 shares of
GigOptix common stock and warrants to purchase
approximately 2,257,159 shares of GigOptix common
stock outstanding. These shares of common stock, including
shares of common stock issued upon exercise of options and
warrants, have either been registered under the Securities Act
and as such are freely tradable without restriction or are
otherwise freely tradeable without restriction (subject to the
requirements of Rule 144 under the Securities Act), unless
the shares are purchased by affiliates as that term
is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act. Any shares
purchased by an affiliate may not be resold except pursuant to
an effective registration statement or an applicable exemption
from registration, including an exemption under Rule 144 of
the Securities Act. In addition, one of the stockholders of
GigOptix, the DBSI Liquidating Trust, holds
1,715,161 shares of GigOptix stock and warrants to purchase
1,000,000 shares of GigOptix common stock. GigOptix
filed a Registration Statement on
Form S-1
for the resale registration of the 1,715,161 shares held
directly by the DBSI Liquidity Trust, and to the extent it is
permitted to do so, GigOptix will file an amendment to the
registration statement for the purpose of registering the
1,000,000 shares underlying the warrants. GigOptix may
issue additional shares of GigOptix common stock in the future
in private placements, public offerings or to finance mergers or
acquisitions.
The
exercise of options and warrants and other issuances of shares
of common stock or securities convertible into common stock will
dilute the interest of GigOptix stockholders.**
As of April 28, 2011, there were outstanding options to
purchase an aggregate of 7,384,549 shares of GigOptix
common stock at a weighted-average exercise price of $2.66 per
share, of which options to purchase 2,480,935 shares at a
weighted-average exercise price of $3.58 per share were
exercisable as of such date. As of April 28, 2011, there
were warrants outstanding to purchase 2,257,159 shares of
GigOptix common stock at a weighted average exercise price of
$5.86 per share. Certain of these warrants contain adjustment
provisions that will reset the exercise price per share of such
warrants to any lower price than the existing exercise price at
which GigOptix issues shares of its common stock in the future
for so long as those warrants are outstanding. The exercise of
options and warrants at prices below the market price of
GigOptix common stock could adversely affect the price of shares
of GigOptix common stock. Additional dilution may result from
the issuance of shares of GigOptix capital stock in connection
with acquisitions or in connection with financing efforts.
26
Any issuance of GigOptix common stock that is not made solely to
then-existing stockholders proportionate to their interests,
such as in the case of a stock dividend or stock split, will
result in dilution to each stockholder by reducing his, her or
its percentage ownership of the total outstanding shares.
Moreover, if GigOptix issues options or warrants to purchase its
common stock in the future and those options or warrants are
exercised, or if GigOptix issues restricted stock, stockholders
may experience further dilution.
In addition, certain warrants to purchase shares of
GigOptix common stock currently contain an exercise price
above the current market price for the common stock. These
warrants are known as above-market warrants. As a
result, it is possible that the holders of these warrants may
choose not to exercise them prior to their expiration, in which
case GigOptix may not realize any proceeds from their exercise.
The
combined company will not be able to fully utilize
Endwaves current net operating loss carryforwards.
**
As of December 31, 2010, Endwave had a federal net
operating loss carryforward of approximately
$205.6 million, federal research and development tax credit
carryforwards of approximately $2.2 million and a
California net operating loss carryforward of approximately
$82.2 million. These amounts, if not subject to limitation,
would be available to offset the income of Endwave (and, after
the merger, GigOptix) that would otherwise be subject to federal
and California taxation. However, federal and state net
operating loss carryforwards are and will continue to be subject
to limitations based on ownership changes of Endwave as well as
the combined company after the merger. Due to ownership changes
that have occurred to date, only $29.9 million of
Endwaves federal net operating loss carryforwards
currently may be used to offset Endwaves taxable income,
which amount would increase (to the extent not utilized) by
$4.4 million in 2011 and 2012 and $1.5 million in
subsequent tax years through 2027, for total of
$61.8 million. The consummation of the merger will result
in an additional limitation on the ability to utilize
Endwaves current net operating loss carryforwards. Based
on Endwaves most recent Section 382 analysis and
Endwaves estimate of the value of the shares to be issued
in the merger and its balance sheet as of the closing of the
merger, and assuming no further ownership changes until the date
the merger is consummated, Endwave believes the completion of
the merger with GigOptix would have the effect of decreasing the
amount of realizable federal net operating loss carryforwards to
approximately $400,000 per year, which would have the effect of
reducing Endwaves total realizable federal net operating
loss carryforwards from approximately $61.8 million to
$7.8 million.
Risks
Relating to Our Business
We
have had a history of losses and may not be profitable in the
future.**
We had a net loss from continuing operations of
$3.9 million in first quarter of 2011. We also had a net
loss from continuing operations of $8.1 million and
$10.6 million for the years ended December 31, 2010
and 2009, respectively. There is no guarantee that we will
achieve or maintain profitability in the future.
We
depend on a small number of key customers in the mobile
communication industry for a significant portion of our
revenues. If we lose any of our major customers or there is any
material reduction in orders for our products from any of these
customers, our business, financial condition and results of
operations would be adversely affected. In addition,
consolidation in this industry could result in delays or
cancellations of orders for our products, adversely impacting
our results of operations.**
We depend, and expect to continue to depend, on a relatively
small number of mobile communication customers for a significant
part of our revenues. The loss of any of our major customers or
any material reduction in orders from any such customers would
have a material adverse effect on our business, financial
condition and results of operations. For the three months ended
March 31, 2011, two customers each accounted for greater
than 10% of total revenues and combined they accounted for 92%
of our total revenues, the larger of which was Nokia Siemens
Networks which accounted for 79% of our total revenues. For the
three months ended March 31, 2010, three customers each
accounted for greater than 10% of total revenues and combined
they accounted for 94% of our total revenues, the largest of
which was Nokia Siemens Networks, which accounted for 45% of our
total revenues.
27
The mobile communication industry has undergone significant
consolidation in the past few years. For example, during January
2011, Ceragon Networks Ltd. entered into a definitive agreement
to merge with Nera Networks AS. The acquisition of one of our
major customers in this market, or one of the communications
service providers supplied by one of our major customers, could
result in delays or cancellations of orders for our products
and, accordingly, delays or reductions in our anticipated
revenues and reduced profitability or increased net losses.
Our
semiconductor product line will require us to incur significant
expenses and may not be successful.**
Our semiconductor product line will require us to incur expenses
to design, test, manufacture and market these products including
the purchase of inventory, supplies and capital equipment. The
future success of our semiconductor product line will depend on
our ability to develop these products in a cost-effective and
timely manner and to market them effectively. The development of
our products is complex, and from time to time we may experience
delays in completing the development and introduction of our new
products or fail to efficiently manufacture such products in the
early production phase. The semiconductor product line may have
little immediate impact on our revenue because a new product may
not generate meaningful revenue. In the meantime, we will have
incurred expenses to design, produce and market the product, and
we may not recover these expenses, and thus adversely affect
operating results, if demand for the product fails to reach
forecasted levels.
Because
of the shortages of some components and our dependence on single
source suppliers and custom components, we may be unable to
obtain an adequate supply of components of sufficient quality in
a timely fashion, or we may be required to pay higher prices or
to purchase components of lesser quality**.
Many of our products are customized and must be qualified by our
customers. This means that we cannot change components in our
products easily without the risks and delays associated with
requalification. Accordingly, while a number of the components
we use in our products are made by multiple suppliers, we may
effectively have single source suppliers for some of these
components. Further, we have recently experienced extended lead
times for many components.
We currently purchase a large number of components, some from
single source suppliers, including, but not limited to:
|
|
|
|
|
semiconductor devices;
|
|
|
|
application-specific monolithic microwave integrated circuits;
|
|
|
|
voltage regulators;
|
|
|
|
passive components;
|
|
|
|
unusual or low usage components;
|
|
|
|
surface mount components compliant with the EUs
Restriction of Hazardous Substances, or RoHS, Directive;
|
|
|
|
custom metal parts;
|
|
|
|
high-frequency circuit boards; and
|
|
|
|
custom connectors.
|
Any delay or interruption in the supply of these or other
components could impair our ability to manufacture and deliver
our products, harm our reputation and cause a reduction in our
revenues. In addition, any increase in the cost of the
components that we use in our products could make our products
less competitive and lower our margins. In the past, we suffered
from shortages of and quality issues with various components.
These shortages and quality issues adversely impacted our
product revenues and could reappear in the future. Our single
source suppliers could enter into exclusive agreements with or
be acquired by one of our competitors, increase their prices,
refuse to sell their products to us, discontinue products or go
out of business. Even to the extent alternative suppliers are
available to us and their components are qualified by our
customers on a timely basis, identifying them and entering into
28
arrangements with them may be difficult and time consuming, and
they may not meet our quality standards. We may not be able to
obtain sufficient quantities of required components on the same
or substantially the same terms.
Competitive
conditions often require us to reduce prices and, as a result,
require us to reduce our costs in order to be
profitable.**
In the past, we reduced the prices of many of our
telecommunication products in order to remain competitive and we
expect market conditions will cause us to reduce our prices
again in the future. In order to reduce our
per-unit
cost of product revenues, we must continue to design and
re-design products to utilize lower cost materials and improve
our manufacturing efficiencies. The combined effects of these
actions may be insufficient to achieve the cost reductions
needed to maintain or increase our gross margins or achieve
profitability.
Our
operating results may be adversely affected by substantial
quarterly and annual fluctuations and market
downturns.
Our revenues, earnings and other operating results have
fluctuated in the past and our revenues, earnings and other
operating results may fluctuate in the future. These
fluctuations are due to a number of factors, many of which are
beyond our control. These factors include, among others, global
economic conditions, overall growth in our target markets, the
ability of our customers to obtain adequate capital,
U.S. export law changes, changes in customer order
patterns, customer consolidation, availability of components
from our suppliers, the gain or loss of a significant customer,
changes in our product mix and market acceptance of our products
and our customers products. These factors are difficult to
forecast, and these, as well as other factors, could materially
and adversely affect our quarterly or annual operating results.
We
rely on the semiconductor foundry operations of third-party
semiconductor foundries to manufacture the integrated circuits
sold directly to our customers and contained in our products.
The loss of our relationship with any of these foundries without
adequate notice would adversely impact our ability to fill
customer orders and could damage our customer
relationships.
We utilize both industry standard semiconductor components and
our own custom-designed semiconductor devices. However, we do
not own or operate a semiconductor fabrication facility, or
foundry, and rely on a limited number of third parties to
produce our custom-designed components. If any of our
semiconductor suppliers is unable to deliver semiconductors to
us in a timely fashion, the resulting delay could severely
impact our ability to fulfill customer orders and could damage
our relationships with our customers. In addition, the loss of
our relationship with or our access to any of the semiconductor
foundries we currently use for the fabrication of custom
designed components and any resulting delay or reduction in the
supply of semiconductor devices to us, would severely impact our
ability to fulfill customer orders and could damage our
relationships with our customers.
We may not be successful in forming alternative supply
arrangements that provide us with a sufficient supply of gallium
arsenide devices. Gallium arsenide devices are used in a
substantial portion of the products we manufacture. Because
there are a limited number of semiconductor foundries that use
the particular process technologies we select for our products
and that have sufficient capacity to meet our needs, using
alternative or additional semiconductor foundries would require
an extensive qualification process that could prevent or delay
product shipments and revenues. We estimate that it may take up
to six months to shift production of a given semiconductor
circuit design to a new foundry.
We
rely heavily on a Thailand facility of HANA, a contract
manufacturer, to produce our RF modules and to package our
microwave and millimeter wave integrated circuits. If HANA is
unable to produce or package these modules and circuits in
sufficient quantities or with adequate quality, or it chooses to
terminate our manufacturing arrangement, we will be forced to
find an alternative manufacturer and may not be able to fulfill
our production commitments to our customers, which could cause
sales to be delayed or lost and could harm our
reputation.
We outsource the assembly and testing of our products to a
Thailand facility of HANA, a contract manufacturer. We plan to
continue this arrangement as a key element of our operating
strategy. If HANA does not provide
29
us with high quality products and services in a timely manner,
terminates its relationship with us, or is unable to produce our
products due to financial difficulties or political instability
we may be unable to obtain a satisfactory replacement to fulfill
customer orders on a timely basis. In the event of an
interruption of supply from HANA, sales of our products could be
delayed or lost and our reputation could be harmed. Our latest
manufacturing agreement with HANA expires in October 2011, but
will renew automatically for successive one-year periods unless
either party notifies the other of its desire to terminate the
agreement at least one year prior to the expiration of the term.
No such notification has been sent to or received from HANA. In
addition, either party may terminate the agreement without cause
upon 365 days prior written notice to the other party, and
either party may terminate the agreement if the non-terminating
party is in material breach and does not cure the breach within
30 days after notice of the breach is given by the
terminating party. There can be no guarantee that HANA will not
seek to terminate its agreement with us.
A
prior misclassification of certain products under the Export
Administration Regulations may result in liability for
Endwave.**
In December 2009, we sought and obtained a formal commodity
classification from the Department of Commerces Bureau of
Industry and Security, or BIS, regarding certain amplifier
products rated to operate between 34 and 40 GHz. Prior to
our request, we believed based on our internal review that the
products and related technology were properly classified as
EAR99 and that export licenses were not required to any
destination in which we had operations or sold products. In
response to our commodity classification request, however, BIS
determined that our MMIC amplifiers rated to operate between 34
and 40 GHz are classified under Export Classification
Control Number, or ECCN, 3A001, which controls MMIC power
amplifiers rated for operation at frequencies exceeding
31.8 GHz up to and including 37.5 GHz without regard
to power output or fractional bandwidth limits. Products falling
under ECCN 3A001 are controlled for national security purposes
and are subject to export licensing requirements for most
countries. Similarly, technology for the development or
production of items controlled under ECCN 3A001 falls under ECCN
3E001. Exports of such technology are likewise controlled for
national security purposes and subject to restrictive licensing
requirements. License exceptions are available under the Export
Administration Regulations for items and technology classified
under ECCNs 3A001 and 3E001, respectively.
In March 2011, we submitted a voluntary self-disclosure to BIS
detailing the affected transactions. In May 2011, we received
BIS authorization to release the affected products. Because we
were unable to ship certain transceiver products in the first
quarter while the authorization was pending, our revenues were
adversely affected in the first quarter. Even though BIS
approval was obtained, we may be responsible for monetary
penalties for the misclassification.
Our
products may contain component, manufacturing or design defects
or may not meet our customers performance criteria, which
could cause us to incur significant repair expenses, harm our
customer relationships and industry reputation, and reduce our
revenues and profitability.
We have experienced manufacturing quality problems with our
products in the past and may have similar problems in the
future. As a result of these problems, we have replaced
components in some products, or replaced the product, in
accordance with our product warranties. Our product warranties
typically last twelve to thirty months. As a result of
component, manufacturing or design defects, we may be required
to repair or replace a substantial number of products under our
product warranties, incurring significant expenses as a result.
Further, our customers may discover latent defects in our
integrated circuits and module products that were not apparent
when the warranty period expired. These latent defects may cause
us to incur significant repair or replacement expenses beyond
the normal warranty period. In addition, any component,
manufacturing or design defect could cause us to lose customers
or revenues or damage our customer relationships and industry
reputation.
We may
not be able to design our products as quickly as our customers
require, which could cause us to lose sales and may harm our
reputation.
Existing and potential customers typically demand that we design
products for them under difficult time constraints. In the
current market environment, the need to respond quickly is
particularly important. If we are unable to commit the necessary
resources to complete a project for a potential customer within
the requested
30
timeframe, we may lose a potential sale. Our ability to design
products within the time constraints demanded by a customer will
depend on the number of product design professionals who are
available to focus on that customers project and the
availability of professionals with the requisite level of
expertise is limited. We have, in the past, expended significant
resources on research and design efforts on potential customer
products that did not result in additional revenue.
Each of our communication products is designed for a specific
range of frequencies. Because different national governments
license different portions of the frequency spectrum for the
mobile communication market, and because communications service
providers license specific frequencies as they become available,
in order to remain competitive we must adapt our products
rapidly to use a wide range of different frequencies. This may
require the design of products at a number of different
frequencies simultaneously. This design process can be difficult
and time consuming, could increase our costs and could cause
delays in the delivery of products to our customers, which may
harm our reputation and delay or cause us to lose revenues.
Our customers often have specific requirements that can be at
the forefront of technological development and therefore
difficult and expensive to meet. If we are not able to devote
sufficient resources to these products, or we experience
development difficulties or delays, we could lose sales and
damage our reputation with those customers.
We
depend on our key personnel. Skilled personnel in our industry
can be in short supply. If we are unable to retain our current
personnel or hire additional qualified personnel, our ability to
develop and successfully market our products would be
harmed.
We believe that our future success depends upon our ability to
attract, integrate and retain highly skilled managerial,
research and development, manufacturing and sales and marketing
personnel. Skilled personnel in our industry can be in short
supply. As a result, our employees are highly sought after by
competing companies and our ability to attract skilled personnel
is limited. To attract and retain qualified personnel, we may be
required to grant large stock option or other stock-based
incentive awards, which may harm our operating results or be
dilutive to our other stockholders. We may also be required to
pay significant base salaries and cash bonuses, which could harm
our operating results.
Due to our relatively small number of employees and the limited
number of individuals with the skill set needed to work in our
industry, we are particularly dependent on the continued
employment of our senior management team and other key
personnel. If one or more members of our senior management team
or other key personnel were unable or unwilling to continue in
their present positions, these persons would be very difficult
to replace, and our ability to conduct our business successfully
could be seriously harmed. We do not maintain key person life
insurance policies.
The
length of our sales cycle requires us to invest substantial
financial and technical resources in a potential sale before we
know whether the sale will occur. There is no guarantee that the
sale will ever occur and if we are unsuccessful in designing
integrated circuits and module products for a particular
generation of a customers products, we may need to wait
until the next generation of that product to sell our products
to that particular customer.
Our products are highly technical and the sales cycle can be
long. Our sales efforts involve a collaborative and iterative
process with our customers to determine their specific
requirements either in order to design an appropriate solution
or to transfer the product efficiently to our offshore contract
manufacturer. Depending on the product and market, the sales
cycle can take anywhere from 2 to 24 months, and we incur
significant expenses as part of this process without any
assurance of resulting revenues. We generate revenues only if
our product is selected for incorporation into a customers
system and that system is accepted in the marketplace. If our
product is not selected, or the customers development
program is discontinued, we generally will not have an
opportunity to sell our product to that customer until that
customer develops a new generation of its system. There is no
guarantee that our product will be selected for that new
generation system. The length of our product development and
sales cycle makes us particularly vulnerable to the loss of a
significant customer or a significant reduction in orders by a
customer because we may be unable to quickly replace the lost or
reduced sales.
31
We may
not be able to manufacture and deliver our products as quickly
as our customers require, which could cause us to lose sales and
would harm our reputation.
We may not be able to manufacture products and deliver them to
our customers at the times and in the volumes they require.
Manufacturing delays and interruptions can occur for many
reasons, including, but not limited to:
|
|
|
|
|
the failure of a supplier to deliver needed components on a
timely basis or with acceptable quality;
|
|
|
|
lack of sufficient capacity;
|
|
|
|
poor manufacturing yields;
|
|
|
|
equipment failures;
|
|
|
|
manufacturing personnel shortages;
|
|
|
|
transportation disruptions;
|
|
|
|
changes in import/export regulations;
|
|
|
|
infrastructure failures at the facilities of our offshore
contract manufacturer;
|
|
|
|
natural disasters;
|
|
|
|
acts of terrorism; and
|
|
|
|
political instability.
|
Manufacturing our products is complex. The yield, or percentage
of products manufactured that conform to required
specifications, can decrease for many reasons, including
materials containing impurities, equipment not functioning in
accordance with requirements or human error. If our yield is
lower than we expect, we may not be able to deliver products on
time. For example, in the past, we have on occasion experienced
poor yields on certain products that have prevented us from
delivering products on time and have resulted in lost sales. If
we fail to manufacture and deliver products in a timely fashion,
our reputation may be harmed, we may jeopardize existing orders
and lose potential future sales, and we may be forced to pay
penalties to our customers.
Although
we do have long-term commitments from many of our customers,
they are not for fixed quantities of product. As a result, we
must estimate customer demand, and errors in our estimates could
have negative effects on our cash, inventory levels, revenues
and results of operations.
We have been required historically to place firm orders for
products and manufacturing equipment with our suppliers up to
six months prior to the anticipated delivery date and, on
occasion, prior to receiving an order for the product, based on
our forecasts of customer demands. Our sales process requires us
to make multiple demand forecast assumptions, each of which may
introduce error into our estimates. If we overestimate customer
demand, we may allocate resources to manufacturing products that
we may not be able to sell when we expect, if at all. As a
result, we would have additional usage of cash, excess inventory
and overhead expense, which would harm our financial results. On
occasion, we have experienced adverse financial results due to
excess inventory and excess manufacturing capacity. For example,
the second quarter of 2010 included a $1.5 million
write-off of inventory associated with excess materials related
to a rapid drop in sales of a legacy product for a major
customers radio platform.
Conversely, if we underestimate customer demand or if
insufficient manufacturing capacity were available, we would
lose revenue opportunities, market share and damage our customer
relationships. On occasion, we have been unable to adequately
respond to unexpected increases in customer purchase orders and
were unable to benefit from this increased demand. There is no
guarantee that we will be able to adequately respond to
unexpected increases in customer purchase orders in the future,
in which case we may lose the revenues associated with those
additional purchase orders and our customer relationships and
reputation may suffer.
32
Any
failure to protect our intellectual property appropriately could
reduce or eliminate any competitive advantage we
have.**
Our success depends, in part, on our ability to protect our
intellectual property. We rely primarily on a combination of
patent, copyright, trademark and trade secret laws to protect
our proprietary technologies and processes. As of March 31,
2011, we had 43 United States patents issued, many with
associated foreign filings and patents. Our issued patents
include those relating to basic circuit and device designs,
semiconductors, our multilithic microsystems technology and
system designs. Our issued United States patents expire between
2013 and 2028. We maintain a vigorous technology development
program that routinely generates potentially patentable
intellectual property. Our decision as to whether to seek formal
patent protection is done on a case by case basis and is based
on the economic value of the intellectual property, the
anticipated strength of the resulting patent, the cost of
pursuing the patent and an assessment of using a patent as a
strategy to protect the intellectual property.
To protect our intellectual property, we regularly enter into
written confidentiality and assignment of rights to inventions
agreements with our employees, and confidentiality and
non-disclosure agreements with third parties, and generally
control access to and distribution of our documentation and
other proprietary information. These measures may not be
adequate in all cases to safeguard the proprietary technology
underlying our products. It may be possible for a third party to
copy or otherwise obtain and use our products or technology
without authorization, develop similar technology independently
or attempt to design around our patents. In addition, effective
patent, copyright, trademark and trade secret protection may be
unavailable or limited outside of the United States, Europe and
Japan. We may not be able to obtain any meaningful intellectual
property protection in other countries and territories.
Additionally, we may, for a variety of reasons, decide not to
file for patent, copyright, or trademark protection outside of
the United States. Moreover we occasionally agree to incorporate
a customers or suppliers intellectual property into
our designs, in which case we have obligations with respect to
the non-use and non-disclosure of that intellectual property. We
also license technology from other companies, including Northrop
Grumman Corporation. There are no limitations on our rights to
make, use or sell products we may develop in the future using
the chip technology licensed to us by Northrop Grumman
Corporation. Steps taken by us to prevent misappropriation or
infringement of our intellectual property or the intellectual
property of our customers may not be successful. Litigation may
be necessary in the future to enforce our intellectual property
rights, to protect our trade secrets or to determine the
validity and scope of proprietary rights of others, including
our customers. Litigation of this type could result in
substantial costs and diversion of our resources.
We may receive in the future, notices of claims of infringement
of other parties proprietary rights. In addition, the
invalidity of our patents may be asserted or prosecuted against
us. Furthermore, in a patent or trade secret action, we could be
required to withdraw the product or products as to which
infringement was claimed from the market or redesign products
offered for sale or under development. We have also at times
agreed to indemnification obligations in favor of our customers
and other third parties that could be triggered upon an
allegation or finding of our infringement of other parties
proprietary rights. These indemnification obligations would be
triggered for reasons including our sale or supply to a customer
or other third parties of a product which was later discovered
to infringe upon another partys proprietary rights.
Irrespective of the validity or successful assertion of such
claims we would likely incur significant costs and diversion of
our resources with respect to the defense of such claims. To
address any potential claims or actions asserted against us, we
may seek to obtain a license under a third partys
intellectual property rights. However, in such an instance, a
license may not be available on commercially reasonable terms,
if at all.
With regard to our pending patent applications, it is possible
that no patents may be issued as a result of these or any future
applications or the allowed patent claims may be of reduced
value and importance. If they are issued, any patent claims
allowed may not be sufficiently broad to protect our technology.
Further, any existing or future patents may be challenged,
invalidated or circumvented thus reducing or eliminating their
commercial value. The failure of any patents to provide
protection to our technology might make it easier for our
competitors to offer similar products and use similar
manufacturing techniques.
33
We are
exposed to fluctuations in the market values of our investment
portfolio.
Although we have not experienced any material losses on our
cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments, future
declines in their market values could have a material adverse
effect on our financial condition and operating results.
Although our portfolio has no direct investments in auction rate
or
sub-prime
mortgage securities, our overall investment portfolio is
currently and may in the future be concentrated in cash
equivalents including money market funds. If any of the issuers
of the securities we hold default on their obligations, or their
credit ratings are negatively affected by liquidity, credit
deterioration or losses, financial results, or other factors,
the value of our cash equivalents and short-term and long-term
investments could decline and result in a material impairment.
Risks
Relating to Our Industry
Our
failure to compete effectively could reduce our revenues and
margins.
Among suppliers in the mobile communication market who provide
integrated transceivers to radio OEMs, we primarily compete with
Compel Electronics SpA, Filtronic plc, and Microelectronics
Technology Inc. Additionally, there are mobile communication
OEMs, such as Ericsson and NEC Corporation, that use their own
captive resources for the design and manufacture of their
transceiver modules, rather than using suppliers like us. To the
extent that mobile communication OEMs presently, or may in the
future, produce their own transceiver modules, we lose the
opportunity to provide our modules to them. However, when we
launched our semiconductor product line, we gained the
opportunity to provide integrated circuits to all radio OEMs.
Our
failure to comply with any applicable environmental regulations
could result in a range of consequences, including fines,
suspension of production, excess inventory, sales limitations
and criminal and civil liabilities.
Due to environmental concerns, the need for lead-free solutions
in electronic components and systems is receiving increasing
attention within the electronics industry as companies are
moving towards becoming compliant with the RoHS Directive. The
RoHS Directive is European Union legislation that restricts the
use of a number of substances, including lead, after July 2006.
We believe that our products impacted by these regulations are
compliant with the RoHS Directive and that materials will
continue to be available to meet these regulations. However, it
is possible that unanticipated supply shortages or delays or
excess non-compliant inventory may occur as a result of these
new regulations. Failure to comply with any applicable
environmental regulations could result in a range of
consequences, including loss of sales, fines, suspension of
production, excess inventory and criminal and civil liabilities.
Government
regulation of the communications industry could limit the growth
of the markets that we serve or could require costly alterations
of our current or future products.
The markets that we serve are highly regulated. Communications
service providers must obtain regulatory approvals to operate
broadband wireless access networks within specified licensed
bands of the frequency spectrum. Further, the Federal
Communications Commission and foreign regulatory agencies have
adopted regulations that impose stringent RF emissions standards
on the communications industry that could limit the growth of
the markets that we serve or could require costly alterations of
our current or future products.
Our
failure to continue to develop new or improved semiconductor
process technologies could impair our competitive
position.
Our future success depends in part upon our ability to continue
to gain access to the current semiconductor process technologies
in order to adapt to emerging customer requirements and
competitive market conditions. If we fail to keep abreast of the
new and improved semiconductor process technologies as they
emerge, we may lose market share which could adversely affect
our operating results.
34
The
segment of the semiconductor industry in which we participate is
intensely competitive, and our inability to compete effectively
would harm our business.
The markets for our products are extremely competitive, and are
characterized by rapid technological change and continuously
evolving customer requirements. Many of our competitors have
significantly greater financial, technical, manufacturing, sales
and marketing resources than we do. As a result, our competitors
may develop new technologies, enhancements of existing products
or new products that offer price or performance features
superior to ours. In addition, our competitors may be perceived
by prospective customers to offer financial and operational
stability superior to ours.
We expect competition in our markets to intensify as new
competitors enter the RF, microwave and millimeter wave
component market, existing competitors merge or form alliances,
and new technologies emerge. If we are not able to compete
effectively, our market share and revenue could be adversely
affected and our business and results of operations could be
harmed.
Risks
Relating to Ownership of Our Stock
The
market price of our common stock has fluctuated historically and
is likely to fluctuate in the future.**
The price of our common stock has fluctuated widely since our
initial public offering in October 2000. In first three months
of 2011, the lowest daily sales price for our common stock was
$2.18 and the highest daily sales price for our common stock was
$2.95. In 2010, the lowest daily sales price for our common
stock was $2.00 and the highest daily sales price for our common
stock was $3.61. The market price of our common stock can
fluctuate significantly for many reasons, including, but not
limited to:
|
|
|
|
|
our financial performance or the performance of our competitors;
|
|
|
|
the purchase or sale of common stock, short-selling or
transactions by large stockholders;
|
|
|
|
technological innovations or other significant trends or changes
in the markets we serve;
|
|
|
|
successes or failures at significant product evaluations or site
demonstrations;
|
|
|
|
the introduction of new products by us or our competitors;
|
|
|
|
acquisitions, strategic alliances or joint ventures involving us
or our competitors;
|
|
|
|
decisions by major customers not to purchase products from us or
to pursue alternative technologies;
|
|
|
|
decisions by investors to de-emphasize investment categories,
groups or strategies that include our company or industry;
|
|
|
|
market conditions in the industry, the financial markets and the
economy as a whole; and
|
|
|
|
the low trading volume of our common stock.
|
It is likely that our operating results in one or more future
quarters may be below the expectations of security analysts and
investors. In that event, the trading price of our common stock
would likely decline. In addition, the stock market has
experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations. These market
fluctuations can be unrelated to the operating performance of
particular companies and the market prices for securities of
technology companies have been especially volatile. Future sales
of substantial amounts of our common stock, or the perception
that such sales could occur, could adversely affect prevailing
market prices for our common stock. Additionally, future stock
price volatility for our common stock could provoke the
initiation of securities litigation, which may divert
substantial management resources and have an adverse effect on
our business, operating results and financial condition. Our
existing insurance coverage may not sufficiently cover all costs
and claims that could arise out of any such securities
litigation. We anticipate that prices for our common stock will
continue to be volatile.
35
We
have a few stockholders that each own a large percentage of our
outstanding capital stock and, as a result of their significant
ownership, are able to significantly affect the outcome of
matters requiring stockholder approval.**
As of March 31, 2011, our five largest stockholders
together owned approximately 40% of our outstanding common
stock. Because most matters requiring approval of our
stockholders require the approval of the holders of a majority
of the shares of our outstanding capital stock present in person
or by proxy at the annual meeting, the significant ownership
interest of these shareholders allows them to significantly
affect the election of our directors and the outcome of
corporate actions requiring stockholder approval. This
concentration of ownership may also delay, deter or prevent a
change in control and may make some transactions more difficult
or impossible to complete without their support, even if the
transaction is favorable to our stockholders as a whole.
Our
certificate of incorporation, bylaws and arrangements with
executive officers could delay or prevent a change in
control.
We are subject to certain Delaware anti-takeover laws by virtue
of our status as a Delaware corporation. These laws prevent us
from engaging in a merger or sale of more than 10% of our assets
with any stockholder, including all affiliates and associates of
any stockholder, who owns 15% or more of our outstanding voting
stock, for three years following the date that the stockholder
acquired 15% or more of our voting stock, unless our board of
directors approved the business combination or the transaction
which resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested
stockholder, or upon consummation of the transaction which
resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder,
the interested stockholder owned at least 85% of our voting
stock of the corporation, or the business combination is
approved by our board of directors and authorized by at least
66
2
/
3
%
of our outstanding voting stock not owned by the interested
stockholder. A corporation may opt out of the Delaware
anti-takeover laws in its charter documents; however we have not
chosen to do so. Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws
include a number of provisions that may deter or impede hostile
takeovers or changes of control of management, including a
staggered board of directors, the elimination of the ability of
our stockholders to act by written consent, discretionary
authority given to our board of directors as to the issuance of
preferred stock, and indemnification rights for our directors
and executive officers. Additionally, we have adopted a
Stockholder Rights Plan, providing for the distribution of one
preferred share purchase right for each outstanding share of
common stock that may lead to the delay or prevention of a
change in control that is not approved by our board of
directors. We have a Senior Executive Officer Severance
Retention Plan, an Executive Officer Severance Plan and a Key
Employee Severance and Retention Plan that provide for severance
payments and the acceleration of vesting of a percentage of
certain stock options granted to our executive officers and
certain senior, non-executive employees under specified
conditions.
These plans may make us a less attractive acquisition target or
may reduce the amount a potential acquirer may otherwise be
willing to pay for our company.
