Item 1. Business

Business Overview

Overview

The Company was founded by Robert Pera in 2005. We sell equipment, and provide the related software platforms, worldwide through a network of over 100 distributors and on-line retailers. The Company has a very broad installed base with over 90 million devices sold in over 200 countries and territories around the world, since inception.

We develop technology platforms for high-capacity distributed Internet access, unified information technology, and consumer electronics for professional, home and personal use. We categorize our solutions in to three main categories: high performance networking technology for service providers, enterprises and consumers. We target the service provider and enterprise markets through our highly engaged community of service providers, distributors, value added resellers, systems integrators and corporate IT professionals, which we refer to as the Ubiquiti Community. We target consumers through digital marketing, retail chains and to lesser extent the Ubiquiti community.

The majority of our resources consist of entrepreneurial and de-centralized research and development ("R&D"). We do not employ a traditional direct sales force, but instead drives brand awareness through online reviews and publications, our website, its distributors and the company’s user community where customers can interface directly with R&D, marketing, and support. Our technology platforms were designed from the ground up with a focus on delivering highly-advanced and easily deployable solutions that appeal to a global customer base markets.

We offer a broad and expanding portfolio of networking products and solutions for operator-owners of wireless internet services ("WISP's"), enterprises and smart homes. Our operator-owner service provider-product platforms provide carrier-class network

Our enterprise product platforms provide wireless LAN ("WLAN") infrastructure, video surveillance products, switching and routing solutions, security gateways, and other complimentary WLAN products along with a unique software platform, which enables users to control their network from one simple, easy to use software interface. Our consumer products, sold under the Ubiquiti Labs brand name, are targeted to the smart home and highly connected consumers. We believe that our products are highly differentiated due to our proprietary software, firmware expertise, and hardware design capabilities.

We operate our business as one reportable and operating segment. Further information regarding Segments can be found in Note 14 to our Consolidated Financial Statements. Our revenues were $1.2 billion, $1.0 billion and $865.3 million in the fiscal years ended June 30, 2019, 2018 and 2017, respectively. We reported net income of $322.7 million, $196.3 million and $257.5 million in the fiscal years ended June 30, 2019, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Refer to our Consolidated Financial Statements included under Part IV, Item 15 of this report for more financial information.

Industry Overview

Internet traffic worldwide has grown rapidly in recent years, driven by an increase in the number of users, increasing mobility of those users and high bandwidth applications, such as video, audio, cloud-based applications, online gaming and social networking. According to Cisco Visual Networking Index, global Internet protocol, or IP, traffic is expected to increase from 122 exabytes per month in 2017 to 396 exabytes per month in 2022, representing an approximate 26% compound annual growth rate, or CAGR, over that period. Additionally, it is estimated that there will be 3.6 networked devices per capita connected to IP networks in 2022, up from 2.4 networked devices per capita in 2017. Wired networking solutions have traditionally been used to address increasing consumer and enterprise bandwidth needs. However, the high initial capital requirements and ongoing operating costs and long market lead times associated with building and installing infrastructure for wired networks has severely limited the widespread deployment of these networks in underserved and underpenetrated markets. Wireless networks have emerged as an attractive alternative for addressing the broadband access needs of underserved and underpenetrated markets in both emerging and developed countries.

Our Technology and Products

We offer products and solutions based on our proprietary technology across multiple markets. Utilizing low cost hardware, consumer chipsets and innovative software and firmware, we seek to build price-performance solutions to address both service providers and enterprises.

Key Technology Platforms

Our current major Service Provider and carrier solutions include:

• airMAX - our airMAX platform includes proprietary protocols developed by us that contain advanced technologies for minimizing signal noise. Devices on the airMax platform, such as customer premise equipment ("CPE"), base station, and backhaul, are able to support a wireless network that can scale to hundreds of clients per base station over long distances while maintaining low latency and high throughput.

• EdgeMAX - our EdgeMAX platform is a software and systems routing platform, powered by our full-featured EdgeOS operating system that includes advanced quality of service, firewall, dynamic routing and virtual private network functionality.

• airFiber - our airFiber platform is a wireless backhaul point-to-point radio system, a wireless method of transmitting data to and from network backbone. Components of the airFiber products were designed to provide low latency with high throughput. Our airFiber product uses an integrated split antenna and a global positioning system to simultaneously send data packets from each side of the link.

• UFiber GPON - UFiber GPON platform, a plug and play fiber network technology, that allows users to build passive optical network deployment with minimal effort and cost. It is designed to enable internet providers ("ISPs") to quickly build high speed fiber internet networks for many users and over long distance.

Our current major Enterprise Provider solutions include:

• UniFi -Enterprise WLAN - our UniFi- enterprise WLAN platform was designed as an enterprise Wi-Fi system, combining Wi-Fi certified hardware with software-based management controller. UniFi uses a virtual controller that allows for on-site management or remote management through the cloud, allowing for configuration of the network and individual access points.

• UniFi Protect - our UniFi protect platform is a video surveillance system that can be accessed securely from any web browser, provides detailed statistical reporting and advanced analytics and provides a management console with multiple views, versatile camera setting and customizable event recordings.

• UniFi Security Gateway - UniFi Security Gateway extends the UniFi enterprise solutions to provide cost-effective, reliable routing and advanced network security.

We offer a consumer product platform, called AmpliFi, which is a Wi-Fi system solution designed to serve the demands of the modern connected home. We continue to explore consumer related market opportunities and have research and development teams focused on new consumer related solutions.

Research and Development

Our research and development organization is responsible for the design, development and testing of our products. Our geographically-distributed engineering team has deep expertise and experience in networking and antenna design, and we have a number of personnel with longstanding experience with network architecture and operation. We have developed and intend to continue to develop our technology in part by operating with a relatively flat reporting structure that relies on individual contributors or small development teams to develop, test and obtain feedback for our products.

As of June 30, 2019, our research and development team consisted of 626 full time equivalent employees, including contractors, located in the United States, Taiwan, China, Latvia, the Czech Republic, Lithuania, Ukraine, Poland, and elsewhere. Our research and development operations work on product development of new products and new versions of existing products. Our research and development expenses were $82.1 million, $74.3 million and $69.1 million for fiscal 2019, fiscal 2018 and fiscal 2017, respectively. We expect that the number of our research and development personnel will increase over time and that our research and development expenses will also increase.

Manufacturing and Suppliers

We use contract manufacturers, primarily located in China, Vietnam and Taiwan, to manufacture our products. Our relationships with contract manufacturers allow us to conserve working capital, reduce manufacturing costs and minimize delivery lead times while maintaining high product quality and the ability to scale quickly to handle increased order volume. Over the long term, our contract manufacturers are not required to manufacture our products for any specific period or in any specific quantity. If necessary, we expect that it would take approximately three to six months to transition manufacturing, quality assurance and shipping services to new providers.

We rely on third party components and technology to build and operate our products, and we rely on our contract manufacturers to obtain the components, subassemblies and products necessary for the manufacture of our products. While components and supplies are generally available from a variety of sources, we and our contract manufacturers currently depend on a single or limited number of suppliers for several components for our products. We and our contract manufacturers rely on purchase orders rather than long-term contracts with these suppliers. The majority of our product revenues are dependent upon the sale of products that incorporate components from Qualcomm Atheros, Inc. ("Qualcomm Atheros"). We are party to a non-exclusive license agreement with Qualcomm Atheros whereby we license certain technology that we incorporate into our products. This agreement automatically renews for successive one year periods unless the agreement is terminated by written notice of nonrenewal at least 90 days prior to the end of its then-current term. The Company has not received a termination notice as of the date of this Report. We depend on this license agreement to modify and replace firmware that Qualcomm Atheros provides with the chipsets with our proprietary firmware. While our agreement with Qualcomm Atheros remains effective, in accordance with the current terms of the agreement, either party may terminate the agreement without cause at the end of the annual contract term.

We do not stockpile sufficient chipsets to cover the time it would take to re-engineer our products to replace the Qualcomm Atheros chipsets which comprise the raw materials for our product offerings. If we need to seek a suitable second source for Qualcomm Atheros in our products, there can be no assurance that we would be able to successfully source our chipsets on suitable terms, if at all. In any event, our use of chipsets from multiple sources may require us to significantly modify our designs and manufacturing processes to accommodate these different chipsets.

Tariffs

In June 2018, the Office of the United States Trade Representative announced new proposed tariffs for certain products imported into the U.S. from China. As of September 24, 2018, these tariffs were implemented with an initial rate of 10% impacting a portion of our products. On May 10, 2019, the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative increased tariffs on certain imported goods from China to 25%. On May 13, 2019, the U.S. Trade Representative released a list of Chinese-origin products with an annual trade value of approximately $ 300 billion on which the U.S. proposed to impose Section 301 tariffs of up to 25%, which covered almost all remaining imports from China that are not already subject to Section 301 tariffs. On June 29, 2019 President Trump announced that trade negotiations with China are resuming and the proposed Section 301 tariffs on $300 billion worth of Chinese goods, first announced on May 13, 2019, were place on hold. On August 13, 2019, it was announced the Section 301 tariffs on $300 billion would go into effect in two parts. "List 4A" on September 1, 2019 at 10% and "List 4B" on December 15, 2019 at 10%. The

progress and continuation of the negotiations continues to be uncertain and a further escalation of the trade war remains a possibility. These tariffs have already affected our operating results and margins. As a result, current gross profit margins may not be indicative of future periods. Refer to “Part I—Item 1A. Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our International Operations—Our business may be negatively affected by political events and foreign policy responses” for additional information.

Sales and Distribution

We sell our products and solutions globally to service providers and enterprises primarily through our extensive network of distributors, and, to a lesser extent, direct customers. During fiscal 2019, we sold our products to over 100 distributors and direct to customers through our webstores (collectively, “customers”) in over 60 countries. In fiscal 2019, two customers represented 10% or more of our revenues. In fiscal 2018 and 2017, one customer in each period represented 11% of our revenues. Refer to Note 14 in our Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for more information regarding financial data by geographic areas.

A majority of our sales are made to distributors outside the United States and we anticipate that non-U.S. sales will continue to be a significant portion of our revenues. We do not have any visibility on the location or extent of purchases of our products by individual network operators and service providers from our distributors. For further discussion of the risks associated with foreign operations, see “Part I-Item 1A. Risk Factors-Risks Related to Our International Operations"

Backlog

Our sales are primarily made through standard sale orders for delivery of products. Some orders remain in backlog due to concerns about the credit worthiness of the customer and/or delivery held due to inventory channel. We do not believe our backlog information is a reliable indicator of our ability to achieve any particular level of revenue of financial performance.

Competition

The markets for networking solutions for service providers, enterprise WLAN, video surveillance, microwave backhaul and machine-to-machine communications technology are highly competitive and are influenced by the following competitive factors, among others:

 

• total cost of ownership and return on investment associated with the solutions;

• simplicity of deployment and use of the solutions;

• ability to rapidly develop high performance integrated solutions;

• reliability and scalability of the solutions;

• market awareness of a particular brand;

• ability to provide secure access to wireless networks;

• ability to offer a suite of products and solutions;

• ability to allow centralized management of the solutions; and

• ability to provide quality product support.

We believe we compete favorably with respect to these factors. We have been successful in rapidly developing high performance integrated solutions because we use individual contributors and small, experienced development teams that focus on the key needs of the markets. Our products and solutions are designed to meet the price-performance characteristics demanded by our customers to achieve a strong overall return on their investment. Our products are designed to operate in growing networks without degradation in performance or operational complexity.

In the backhaul market, our competitors include Cambium Networks, Ceragon Networks, DragonWave, MikroTîkls, Airspan, SAF Tehnika and Trango. In the CPE market, our competitors include Cambium Networks, MikroTîkls, Ruckus Wireless (Arris) and TP-LINK Technologies. In the antenna market, we primarily compete with PCTEL, ARC, ITELITE and Radio Waves.  In the enterprise WLAN market, we primarily compete with Huawei, Aerohive Networks, Aruba Networks (HPE), Ruckus Wireless (Arris), Cisco Meraki and Cisco. In the video surveillance market, we primarily compete with Axis Communications, HIKVISION, Mobotix and Vivotek. We expect increased competition from other established and emerging companies if our market continues to develop and expand. As we enter new markets, we expect to face competition from incumbent and new market participants.

Intellectual Property

We rely on a combination of patent, copyright, trademark and trade secret laws, as well as confidentiality procedures and contractual restrictions, to establish and protect our proprietary rights. These laws, procedures and restrictions provide only limited protection and the legal standards relating to the validity, enforceability and scope of protection of intellectual property rights are uncertain and still evolving. Furthermore, effective patent, trademark, copyright and trade secret protection may not be available in every country in which our services and products are available. We seek patent protection for certain of our key concepts, components, protocols, processes and other inventions.

Table of Contents

We have obtained a number of patents and trademarks in the United States and other countries. We have also filed, and will continue to file, patent applications and trademark applications in the United States and other countries where we believe there to be a strategic technological or business reason to do so. Any patents or trademarks issued to us now or in the future may be challenged, invalidated or circumvented and may not provide sufficiently broad protection or may not prove to be enforceable in actions against alleged infringers. There can be no assurance that others will not assert intellectual property rights to technologies that are relevant to us or that our intellectual property rights will give us competitive advantage.

We endeavor to enter into agreements with our employees and contractors and with parties with whom we do business in order to limit access to and disclosure of our proprietary information. We cannot be certain that the steps we have taken will prevent unauthorized use or reverse engineering of our technology. Moreover, others may independently develop technologies that are competitive with ours or that infringe on our intellectual property. The enforcement of our intellectual property rights also depends on the success of our legal actions against infringers and counterfeiters, but these actions may not be successful, even when our rights have been infringed. For further discussion of the risks associated with intellectual property, see “Part I-Item 1A. Risk Factors-Risks Related to Intellectual Property".

Employees

As of June 30, 2019, we employed and or contracted with 955 full time equivalent employees, which included 626 in research and development, 104 in sales, general and administrative and 225 in operations. None of our employees are represented by a labor union or are party to a collective bargaining agreement. We consider our relations with our employees to be good.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

This Report contains forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the risk factors set forth below. These risks and uncertainties are not the only ones we face. If any event related to these known or unknown risks or uncertainties actually occurs, our business prospects, results of operation, and financial condition could be materially adversely affected.

Risks Related to Our Business and Industry

We have limited visibility into future sales, which makes it difficult to forecast our future results of operations.

Because of our limited visibility into end customer demand and channel inventory levels, our ability to accurately forecast our future sales is limited. We sell our products and solutions globally to network operators, service providers and consumers, primarily through our network of distributors and resellers. We do not employ a traditional direct sales force. Sales to our distributors have accounted for nearly all of our revenues. Our distributors do not make long term purchase commitments to us, and do not typically provide us with information about market demand for our products. We endeavor to obtain information on inventory levels and sales data from our distributors. This information has been generally difficult to obtain in a timely manner, and we cannot always be certain that the information is reliable. If we over forecast demand, we may not be able to decrease our expenses in time to offset any shortfall in revenues, which could harm our ability to achieve or sustain expected results of operations. If we under forecast demand, our ability to fulfill sales orders will be compromised and sales to distributors may be deferred or lost altogether, which would reduce our revenues and could harm our ability to achieve or sustain expected results of operations.

The markets we serve can be especially volatile, and weakness in orders could harm our future results of operations.

Weakness in orders, directly or indirectly, from the markets we serve, including as a result of any slowdown in capital expenditures by the markets we service (which may be more prevalent during a global economic downturn, or periods of economic, political or

8

---

Table of Contents

regulatory uncertainty), could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, and financial condition. Such slowdowns may continue or recur in future periods. Orders from the markets we serve could decline for many reasons other than the competitiveness of our products and services within their respective markets. These conditions have harmed our business and results of operations in the past, and some of these or other conditions in the markets we serve could affect our business and results of operations in any future period of such slowdowns

We are subject to risks associated with our distributors’ inventory management practices.

Our distributors purchase and maintain their own inventories of our products, and we do not control their inventory management. Distributors may manage their inventories in a manner that causes significant fluctuations in their purchases from quarter to quarter, and which may not be in alignment with the actual demand of end customers for our products. If some distributors decide to purchase more of our products than are required to satisfy their customers’ demand in any particular quarter, because they do not accurately forecast demand or otherwise, they may reduce future orders until their inventory levels realign with their customers’ demand. If some distributors decide to purchase less of our products than are required to satisfy their customers’ demand in any particular quarter, because they do not accurately forecast demand or otherwise, sales of our products may be deferred or lost altogether, which could materially adversely affect our results of operations.

If our forecasts of future sales are inaccurate, we may manufacture too many or not enough products.

We may over or under forecast our customers’ actual demand for our products or the actual mix of our products that they will ultimately demand. If we over-forecast demand, we may build excess inventory which could materially adversely affect our operating results. If we under-forecast demand, we may miss opportunities for sales and may impair our customer relationships, which could materially adversely affect our results of operations.

The lead times that we face for the procurement of components and subsequent manufacturing of our products are usually much longer than the lead time from our customers’ orders to the expected delivery date. This increases the risk that we may manufacture too many or not enough products in any given period.

We may need to build inventory for new product announcements and shipments or decide to increase or maintain higher levels of inventory, which may result in inventory write-downs

The Company must order components for its products and build inventory, both of finished products and components, in advance of new product announcements and shipments. With the use of third party logistics and warehousing providers, we may also decide to increase or maintain higher levels of inventory of finished products or components. Decisions to build inventory for new products or to increase or maintain higher inventory levels are typically based upon uncertain forecasts or other assumptions and may expose us to a greater risk of carrying excess or obsolete inventory. Because the markets in which the Company compete are volatile, competitive and subject to rapid technology and price changes, if the assumptions on which we base these decisions turn out to be incorrect, our financial performance could suffer and we could be required to write-off the value of excess products or components inventory or not fully utilize firm purchase commitments.

We rely on a limited number of distributors, and changes in our relationships with our distributors or changes within our distributors may disrupt our sales.

Although we have a large number of distributors in numerous countries who sell our products, a limited number of these distributors represent a significant portion of our sales. One or more of our major distributors may suffer from a decline in their financial condition, decrease in demand from their customers, or a decline in other aspects of their business which could impair their ability to purchase and resell our products. Any distributor may also cease doing business with us at any time with little or no notice. The termination of a relationship with a major distributor, either by us or by the distributor, could result in a temporary or permanent loss of revenues, slower or impaired collection on accounts receivable and costly and time-consuming litigation or arbitration. We may not be successful in finding other suitable distributors on satisfactory terms, or at all, and this could adversely affect our ability to sell in certain geographic markets or to certain network operators and service providers. We do not generally obtain letters of credit or other security for payment from the distributors, so we are not protected against accounts receivable default by the distributors.

We may not be able to enhance our products to keep pace with technological and market developments while offering competitive prices.

The market for our wireless broadband networking equipment is emerging and is characterized by rapid technological change, evolving industry standards, frequent new product introductions and short product life cycles. The markets for enterprise networking equipment and consumer products possess similar characteristics of rapid technological updates, evolving industry standards, frequent changes in consumer preferences, frequent new product introductions and short and unpredictable product life cycles. Our ability to keep pace in these markets depends upon our ability to enhance our current products, and continue to develop and introduce new products rapidly and at competitive prices. The success of new product introductions or updates on existing products depends on a number of factors including, but not limited to, timely and successful product development, market acceptance, our

9

Table of Contents

ability to manage the risks associated with new product production ramp-up, the effective management of our inventory and manufacturing schedule and the risk that new products may have defects or other deficiencies in the early stages of introduction. The development of our products is complex and costly, and we typically have several products in development at the same time. Given the complexity, we occasionally have experienced, and could experience in the future, lower than expected yields on new or enhanced products and delays in completing the development and introduction of new products and enhancements to existing products. In addition, new products may have lower selling prices or higher costs than existing products, which could negatively impact our results of operations. Our ability to compete successfully will depend in large measure on our ability to maintain a technically skilled development and engineering staff, to successfully innovate, and to adapt to technological changes and advances in the industry. Development and delivery schedules for our products are difficult to predict. We may fail to introduce new products or enhancements to existing products in a timely fashion. If new releases of our products are delayed, our distributors may curtail their efforts to market and promote our products and our users may switch to competing products.

The markets in which we compete are highly competitive.

The networking, enterprise WLAN, routing, switching, video surveillance, wireless backhaul, machine-to-machine communications and consumer markets in which we primarily compete are highly competitive and are influenced by competitive factors including:

• our ability to rapidly develop and introduce new high performance integrated solutions;

• the price and total cost of ownership and return on investment associated with the solutions;

• the simplicity of deployment and use of the solutions;

• the reliability and scalability of the solutions;

• the market awareness of a particular brand;

• our ability to provide secure access to wireless networks;

• our ability to offer a suite of products and solutions;

• our ability to allow centralized management of the solutions; and

• our ability to provide quality product support.

New entrants seeking to gain market share by introducing new technology and new products may also make it more difficult for us to sell our products, and could create increased pricing pressure. In addition, broadband equipment providers or system integrators may also offer wireless broadband infrastructure equipment for free or as part of a bundled offering, which could force us to reduce our prices or change our selling model to remain competitive.

If there is a shift in the market such that network operators and service providers begin to use closed network solutions that only operate with other equipment from the same vendor, we could experience a significant decline in sales because our products would not be interoperable.

We expect competition to continuously intensify as other established and new companies introduce new products in the same markets that we serve or intend to enter, as these markets consolidate. Our business, results of operations and financial condition will suffer if we do not maintain our competitiveness.

A number of our current or potential competitors have longer operating histories, greater brand recognition, larger customer bases and significantly greater resources than we do.

As we move into new markets for different types of products, our brand may not be as well-known as the incumbents' brands in those markets. Potential customers may prefer to purchase from their existing suppliers or well-known brands rather than a new supplier, regardless of product performance or features. We expect increased competition from other established and emerging companies if our market continues to develop and expand. As we enter new markets, we expect to face competition from incumbent and new market participants and there is no assurance that our entry into new markets will be successful.

Many of these companies have significantly greater financial, technical, marketing, distribution and other resources than we do and are better positioned to acquire and offer complementary products and technologies.

Industry consolidation, acquisitions and other arrangements among competitors may adversely affect our competitiveness because it may be more difficult to compete with entities that have access to their combined resources. As a result of such consolidation, acquisition or other arrangements, our current and potential competitors might be able to adapt more quickly to new technologies and consumer preference, devote greater resources to the marketing and promotion of their products, initiate or withstand price competition, and take advantage of acquisitions or other opportunities more readily and develop and expand their products more quickly than we do. These combinations may also affect customers’ perceptions regarding the viability of companies of our size and, consequently, affect their willingness to purchase our products.

The complexity of our products could result in unforeseen delays or expenses caused by undetected defects or bugs.

10

Table of Contents

Our products may contain defects and bugs when they are introduced, or as new versions are released. We have focused, and intend to focus in the future, on getting our new products to market quickly. Due to our rapid product introductions, defects and bugs that may be contained in our products may not yet have manifested. We have in the past experienced, and may in the future experience, defects and bugs. If any of our products contain material defects or bugs, or has reliability, quality or compatibility problems, we may not be able to promptly or successfully correct these problems. The existence of defects or bugs in our products may damage our reputation and disrupt our sales. If any of these problems are not found until after we have commenced commercial production and distribution of a new product, we may be required to incur additional development costs, repair or replacement costs, and other costs relating to regulatory proceedings, product recalls and litigation, which could harm our reputation and results of operations. Undetected defects or bugs may lead to negative online Internet reviews of our products, which are increasingly becoming a significant factor in the success of our new product launches, especially for our consumer products. If we are unable to quickly respond to negative reviews, including end user reviews posted on various prominent online retailers, our ability to sell these products will be harmed. Moreover, we may offer stock rotation rights to our distributors. If we experience greater returns from retailers or end customers, or greater warranty claims, in excess of our reserves, our business, revenue and results of operations could be harmed.

Security vulnerabilities in our products, services and systems could lead to reduced revenues and claims against us.

The quality and performance of some of our products and services may depend upon their ability to withstand cyber attacks. Third parties may develop and deploy viruses, worms and other malicious software programs, some of which may be designed to attack our products, systems, or networks. Some of our products and services also involve the storage and transmission of users’ and customers’ proprietary information which may be the target of cyber attacks. Hardware and software that we produce or procure from third parties also may contain defects in manufacture or design, including bugs and other problems, which could compromise their ability to withstand cyber attacks.

We have experienced cyber attacks in the past, and may experience cyber attacks in the future. As a result, unauthorized parties may have obtained, and may in the future obtain, access to our systems, data or our users’ or customers’ data. Our security measures may also be breached due to employee error, malfeasance, or otherwise. Third parties may also attempt to induce employees, users, or customers to disclose sensitive information in order to gain access to our data or our users’ or customers’ data. Any such breach or unauthorized access could result in significant legal and financial exposure, damage to our reputation, and a loss of confidence in the security of our products and services. Because the techniques used to obtain unauthorized access, disable or degrade service, or sabotage systems change frequently, and often are not recognized until launched against a target, we may be unable to anticipate these techniques or to implement adequate preventative measures.

The costs to us to eliminate or alleviate security vulnerabilities can be significant, and our efforts to address these problems may not be successful and could result in interruptions, delays, cessation of service and loss of existing or potential customers that may impede our sales, manufacturing, distribution or other critical functions, as well as potential liability to the company. The risk that these types of events could seriously harm our business is likely to increase as we expand the web-based products and services that we offer.

We may be unable to anticipate or fail to adequately mitigate against increasingly sophisticated methods to engage in illegal or fraudulent activities against us.

Despite any defensive measures we take to manage threats to our business, our risk and exposure to these matters remain heightened because of, among other things, the evolving nature of such threats in light of advances in computer capabilities, new discoveries in the field of cryptography, new and sophisticated methods used by criminals including phishing, social engineering or other illicit acts, or other events or developments that we may be unable to anticipate or fail to adequately mitigate. In June 2015, we determined that we were the victim of criminal fraud known to law enforcement authorities as business e-mail compromise fraud which involved employee impersonation and fraudulent requests targeting our finance department. The fraud resulted in transfers of funds aggregating $46.7 million held by a Company subsidiary incorporated in Hong Kong to other overseas accounts held by third parties. To date, the Company has recovered $16.7 million. The Company recovered $8.1 million in fiscal 2015, resulting in a charge of $39.1 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015, including additional expenses consisting of professional service fees associated with the fraud loss. In fiscal 2016, the Company recorded a net recovery of an additional $8.3 million, comprised of an $8.6 million recovery less $0.3 million of professional service fees associated with the recovery. No additional recoveries were made since fiscal year ended 2016.

The Company is continuing to pursue the recovery of the remaining $30.0 million and is cooperating with U.S. federal and numerous overseas law enforcement authorities who are actively pursuing a multi-agency criminal investigation. However, any additional recoveries are likely remote and therefore cannot be assured.

The Company may not be successful in obtaining any insurance coverage for this loss. While we do not expect the fraud to have a material impact on our business, we have borne, and will continue to bear additional expenses in connection with the remediation and investigation of the fraud.

Any future illegal acts such as phishing, social engineering or other fraudulent conduct that go undetected may have significant negative impacts on our reputation, operating results and stock price.

Our business and prospects depend on the strength of our brand.

Maintaining and enhancing our brand is critical to expanding our base of distributors and end customers. Maintaining and enhancing our brand will depend largely on our ability to continue to develop and provide products and solutions that address the price-performance characteristics sought by end customers and the users of our products and services, particularly in developing markets which comprise a significant part of our business. If we fail to promote, maintain and protect our brand successfully, our ability to sustain and expand our business and enter new markets will suffer.

We may fail to effectively manage the challenges associated with our growth.

Over the past several years we have expanded, and continue to expand, our product offerings, the number of customers we sell to, our transaction volumes, the number of our facilities, and the number of contract manufacturers that we utilize to produce our products. Failure to effectively manage the increased complexity associated with this expansion, particularly in light of our lean management structure, would make it difficult to conduct our business, fulfill customer orders, and pursue our strategies. We may also need to increase costs to add personnel, upgrade or replace our existing reporting systems, as well as improve our business processes and controls as a result of these changes. If we fail to effectively manage any of these challenges we could suffer inefficiencies, errors and disruptions in our business, which in turn would adversely affect our results of operations.

We rely on a limited number of contract manufacturers to produce our products. Supply chain issues or a shortage of adequate component supply or manufacturing capacity could increase our costs or delay our ability to fulfill future orders and could have a material adverse impact on our business and results of operations.

We retain contract manufacturers, located primarily in China, V ietnam and Taiwan , to manufacture our products. Any significant change in our relationship with these manufacturers could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Our reliance on contract manufacturers for manufacturing our products can present significant risks to us because, among other things, we do not have direct control over their activities. If we fail to manage our relationship with our manufacturers effectively, or if they experience operational difficulties, our ability to ship products to our retailers and distributors could be impaired and our competitive position and reputation could be harmed.

We significantly depend upon our contract manufacturers to:

• assure the quality of our products;

• manage capacity during periods of volatile demand;

• qualify appropriate component suppliers;

• ensure adequate supplies of components and materials;

• deliver finished products at agreed upon prices and schedules; and

• safeguard materials and finished goods.

The ability and willingness of our contract manufacturers to perform is largely outside our control.

In the event that we receive shipments of products that fail to comply with our technical specifications or that fail to conform to our quality control standards, and we are not able to obtain replacement products in a timely manner, we risk revenue losses from the inability to sell those products, increased administrative and shipping costs, and lower profitability. Additionally, if defects are not discovered until after distributors and/or end users purchase our products, they could lose confidence in the technical attributes of our products and our business and results of operations could be harmed.

We do not control our contract manufacturers or suppliers, including their labor, environmental or other practices. Environmental regulations or changes in the supply, demand or available sources of natural resources may affect the availability and cost of goods and services necessary to run our business. Non-compliance or deliberate violations of labor, environmental or other laws by our contract manufacturer or suppliers, or a failure of these parties to follow ethical business practices, could lead to negative publicity and harm our reputation or brand.

We believe that our orders may not represent a material portion of our contract manufacturers’ total orders and, as a result, fulfilling our orders may not be a priority in the event our contract manufacturers are constrained in their capacity. If any of our contract manufacturers experiences problems in its manufacturing operations, or if we have to change or add additional contract manufacturers, our ability to ship products to our customers would be impaired.

Additionally, any or all of the following could either limit supply or increase costs, directly or indirectly, to us or our contract manufacturers:

12

Table of Contents

• labor strikes or shortages;

• financial problems of either contract manufacturers or component suppliers;

• reservation of manufacturing capacity at our contract manufactures by other companies, inside or outside of our industry;

• changes or uncertainty in tariffs, economic sanctions, and other trade barriers; and

• industry consolidation occurring within one or more component supplier markets, such as the semiconductor market.

We rely upon a limited number of suppliers, and it can be costly and time consuming to use components from other suppliers.

We purchase components, directly or through our contract manufacturers, from third parties that are necessary for the manufacture of our products. Shortages in the supply of components or other supply disruptions may not be predicted in time to design-in different components or qualify other suppliers. Shortages or supply disruptions may also increase the prices of components due to market conditions. While many components are generally available from a variety of sources, we and our contract manufacturers currently depend on a single or limited number of suppliers for several components for our products. For example, we currently rely upon Qualcomm Atheros as a single-source supplier of certain components for some of our products, and a disruption in the supply of those components would significantly disrupt our business.

We and our contract manufacturers generally rely on short-term purchase orders rather than long-term contracts with the suppliers of components for our products. As a result, even if components are available, we and our contract manufacturers may not be able to procure sufficient components at reasonable prices to build our products in a timely manner. Further, in order to minimize their inventory risk, our manufacturers might not order components from third-party suppliers with adequate lead time, thereby impacting our ability to meet our demand forecast. We may, therefore, be unable to meet customer demand for our products, which would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our products, especially new products, sometimes utilize custom components available from only one or limited number of sources. When a component or product uses new technologies, capacity constraints may exist until the suppliers’ yields have matured or manufacturing capacity has increased. Many factors may affect the continued availability of these components at acceptable prices, including if those suppliers decide to concentrate on the production of common components instead of components customized to meet our requirements. There is no assurance that the supply of such components will not be delayed or constrained.

A general global economic downturn may negatively affect our customers and their ability to purchase our products. A downturn may decrease our revenues and increase our costs and may increase credit risk with our customers and impact our ability to collect account receivable and recognize revenue.

The global macroeconomic environment has been challenging and inconsistent caused by instability in the global credit markets, the impact of uncertainty regarding global central bank monetary policy, the instability in the geopolitical environment in many parts of the world, including the June 2016 referendum by the United Kingdom in which voters approved an exit from the European Union, commonly referred to as "Brexit". As a result of the referendum, the British government formally initiated the process for withdrawal in March 2017, and, following agreed extensions between the European Council and the United Kingdom on March 22, 2019 and April 11, 2019, "Brexit" is scheduled to become effective on October 31, 2019, although may become effective as of an earlier date under specified circumstances. The terms of any withdrawal and the United Kingdom’s future relationship with the European Union cannot be predicted with any certainty. Although it is unknown what those final terms will be or if there will be a no-deal Brexit, the Brexit has created global economic uncertainty and could cause disruptions in the markets that we serve. Additionally, we may be adversely affected by the Brexit in ways we do not currently anticipate.

Disruptions in the financial markets have had and may continue to have an adverse effect on the U.S. and world economies, which could adversely and materially impact business spending patterns. Tightening of credit in financial markets could adversely affect the ability of our customers and suppliers to obtain financing for significant purchases and operations and could result in a decrease in or cancellation of orders for our products.

Economic downturns may exacerbate some of the other risks that affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. A tighter credit market for consumer, business, and service provider spending may have several adverse effects, including reduced demand for our products, increased price competition or deferment of purchases and orders by our customers. Additional effects may include increased demand for customer finance, difficulties in collection of accounts receivable, higher overhead costs as a percentage of revenue and higher interest expense, risk of supply constraints, risk of excess and obsolete inventories, risk of excess facilities and manufacturing capacity and increased risk of counterparty failures.

An economic downturn or economic uncertainty in our key U.S. and international markets, as well as fluctuations in currency exchange rates, may adversely affect consumer discretionary spending and demand for our consumer products. Factors affecting the level of consumer spending include general market conditions, macroeconomic conditions, fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and interest rates, and other factors such as consumer confidence, the availability and cost of consumer credit, levels of unemployment and tax rates. If global economic conditions are volatile or if economic conditions deteriorate, consumers may delay or reduce purchases of our consumer products resulting in consumer demand for our products that may not reach our sales targets. For example, the Brexit caused significant short term volatility in global stock markets as well as currency exchange rate

fluctuations, resulting in further strengthening of the U.S. dollar. Our sensitivity to economic cycles and any related fluctuation in consumer demand could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We have been investing and expect to continue to invest in growth areas and in our enterprise and service provider technologies, and if the return on these investments is lower or develops more slowly than we expect, our results of operations may be harmed.

We have and we may continue to invest and dedicate resources into new growth areas, such as consumer products, while also focusing on in our enterprise and service provider technologies. However, the return on our investments may be lower, or may develop more slowly, than we expect. If we do not achieve the benefits anticipated from these investments (including if our selection of areas for investment does not play out as we expect), or if the achievement of these benefits is delayed, our results of operations may be adversely affected. Additionally, as we invest and dedicate resources into new growth areas, there is no assurance that we may succeed at maintaining our competitors position in enterprise and service provider technologies.

To remain competitive and stimulate customer demand, we must effectively manage product introductions, product transitions and marketing.

We believe that we must continually develop and introduce new products, enhance our existing products, effectively stimulate customer demand for new and upgraded products, and successfully manage the transition to these new and upgraded products to maintain or increase our revenue. The success of new product introductions depends on a number of factors including, but not limited to, timely and successful research and development, pricing, market and consumer acceptance, the effective forecasting and management of product demand, purchase commitments and inventory levels, the availability of products in appropriate quantities to meet anticipated demand, the management of manufacturing and supply costs, the management of risks associated with new product production ramp-up issues, and the risk that new products may have quality issues or other defects or bugs in the early stages of introduction. Therefore, we may not correctly determine in advance the ultimate effect of new product introductions and transitions. Additionally, if the assumptions on which we based our forecasts and management of product demand, purchase commitments or inventory levels turn out to be incorrect, our financial performance could suffer and we could be required to write-off the value of excess products or components inventory or not fully utilize firm purchase commitments.

In addition, the introduction or announcement of new products or product enhancements may shorten the life cycle of our existing products or reduce demand for our current products, thereby offsetting any benefits of successful product introductions and potentially lead to challenges in managing inventory of existing products. Failure to complete product transitions effectively or in a timely manner could harm our brand and lead to, among other things, lower revenue, excess prior generation product inventory, or a deficit of new product inventory and reduced profitability.

In connection with introduction of new products, and our consumer products, in particular, we may spend significant amount on advertising and other marketing campaigns, such as television, print advertising, social media and others, as well as increased promotional activities, to build brand awareness and acquire new users. While we seek to structure our advertising campaigns in the manner that we believe is most likely to encourage people to use our products and services, we may fail to identify advertising opportunities that satisfy our anticipated return on advertising spend, accurately predict customer acquisition, or fully understand or estimate the conditions and behaviors that drive customer behavior. If for any reason any of our advertising campaigns prove less successful than anticipated in attracting new customers, we may not be able to recover our advertising spend, and our rate of user acquisition may fail to meet our expectations, either of which could have an adverse effect on our business. There can be no assurance that our advertising and other marketing efforts will result in increased sales of our consumer products.

If we are unable to anticipate consumer preferences and successfully develop desirable consumer products and solutions, we might not be able to maintain or increase revenue and profitability.

Our success in the consumer product market depends on our ability to identify and originate product trends as well as to anticipate, gauge and react to changing consumer demands in a timely manner. All of our consumer products are subject to changing consumer preferences that cannot be predicted with certainty and lead times for our products may make it more difficult for us to respond rapidly to new or changing product or consumer preferences. If we are unable to introduce appealing new consumer products or novel technologies in a timely manner, or our new consumer products or technologies are not accepted or adopted by consumers, our competitors may increase their market share, which could hurt our competitive position in the consumer product market. It is also possible that competitors could introduce new products and services that negatively impact consumer preference in the type of consumer products that we supply, which could result in decreased sales of our product and a loss in market share. We may not be able to achieve an acceptable return, if any, on our research and development efforts, and our business may be adversely affected. As we continually seek to enhance our consumer products, we will incur additional costs to incorporate new or revised features. We might not be able to, or determine that it is not in our interests to, raise prices to compensate for any additional costs.

Our strategy for our consumer products depends upon effectively maintaining and further developing our sales channels, including developing and supporting our retail sales channel and distributors.

14

Table of Contents

We depend upon effective sales channels to reach the consumers who are the ultimate purchasers of our consumer products. In the United States, we primarily sell our consumer products through a mix of retail channels, including, e-commerce, big box, mid-market and specialty retailers, and we reach certain U.S. markets through distributors. In international markets, we primarily sell through distributors who in turn sell to local retailers.

With some of our consumer products, we depend on retailers to provide adequate and attractive space for our products in their stores. We further depend on our retailers to employ, educate and motivate their sales personnel to effectively sell our consumer products. If our retailers do not adequately display our products, choose to reduce the space for our products in their stores or locate them in less than premium positioning, choose not to carry some or all of our consumer products or promote competitors’ products over ours, or do not effectively explain to customers the advantages of our consumer products, our sales could decrease and our business could be harmed. Similarly, our business could be adversely affected if any of our large retail customers were to experience financial difficulties, or change the focus of their businesses in a way that deemphasized the sale of our products.

Our distributors generally offer products from several different manufacturers. Accordingly, we are at risk that these distributors may give higher priority to selling other companies’ products. We have limited number of distributors in certain regions, and if we were to lose the services of a distributor, we might need to find another distributor in that area and there can be no assurance of our ability to do so in a timely manner or on favorable terms. Further, our distributors build inventory in anticipation of future sales, and if such sales do not occur as rapidly as they anticipate, our distributors will decrease the size of their future product orders. We are also subject to the risks of our distributors encountering financial difficulties, which could impede their effectiveness and also expose us to financial risk if they are unable to pay for the products they purchase from us. Additionally, our international distributors buy from us in U.S. dollars and generally sell to retailers in local currency so significant currency fluctuations could impact their profitability, and in turn, affect their ability to buy future products from us. For example, the Brexit, caused significant short term volatility in global stock markets as well as currency exchange rate fluctuations, resulting in further strengthening of the U.S. dollar.

Any reduction in sales by our current distributors, loss of key distributors or decrease in revenue from our distributors could adversely affect our revenue, results of operations and financial condition.

Risks Related to Our International Operations

Our business is susceptible to risks associated with operations outside of the United States.

We have operations in China, the Czech Republic, Lithuania, Poland, Latvia, Ukraine, Canada, India, Taiwan and elsewhere. We also sell to distributors in numerous countries throughout the world. Our operations outside of the United States subject us to risks that we generally do not face in the United States. These include:

• the burdens of complying with a wide variety of foreign laws and regulations, and the risks of non-compliance;

• fluctuations in currency exchange rates;

• import and export license requirements, tariffs, economic sanctions, contractual limitations and other trade barriers;

• increasing labor costs, especially in China;

• difficulties in managing the geographically remote personnel;

• the complexities of foreign tax systems and changes in their tax rates and rules;

• stringent consumer protection and product compliance regulations that are costly to comply with and may vary from country to country;

• limited protection and enforcement regimes for intellectual property rights in some countries;

• increased financial accounting and reporting burdens and complexity; and

• political, social and economic instability in some jurisdictions.

If any of these risks were to come to fruition, it could negatively affect our business outside the United States and, consequently, our results of operations. Additionally, operating in markets outside the United States requires significant management attention and financial resources. We cannot be certain that the investment and additional resources required to establish, acquire or integrate operations in other countries will produce anticipated levels of revenues or profitability.

Our third-party logistics and warehousing providers in China and elsewhere may fail to safeguard and accurately manage and report our inventory.

We use third-party logistics and warehousing providers located in China and other countries to fulfill a portion of our worldwide sales. We also rely on our third-party logistics and warehousing providers to safeguard and manage and report on the status of our products at their warehouse and in transit. These service providers may fail to safeguard our products, fail to accurately segregate and report our inventory, or fail to manage and track the delivery of our products, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

To the extent that we develop some of our own manufacturing capacity, we will be subject to various risks associated with such activities.

We invested in developing our own manufacturing capacity to support our product development and prototyping. To the extent that we may invest in and expand or relocate these manufacturing capabilities, and increasingly rely upon such activities, we will face increased risks associated with:

• bearing the fixed costs of these activities;

• directly procuring components and materials;

• regulatory and other compliance requirements, including import and export license requirements, tariffs, economic sanctions, contractual limitations and other trade barriers;

• exposure to casualty loss and other disruptions;

• quality control;

• labor relations; and

• our limited experience in operating manufacturing facilities.

Since these activities would be conducted in China and other foreign countries, some of these risks may be more significant due to the less predictable legal and political environment.

Our business may be negatively affected by political events and foreign policy responses.

Geopolitical uncertainties and events could cause damage or disruption to international commerce and the global economy, and thus could have a material adverse effect on us, our suppliers, logistics providers, manufacturing vendors and customers, including our channel partners. Changes in commodity prices may also cause political uncertainty and increase currency volatility that can affect economic activity. Policies and statements by the current White House administration has created uncertainty with how trade might be affected between the U.S. and the rest of the world, and China, in particular. For example, in June 2018, the Office of the United States Trade Representative announced new proposed tariffs for certain products imported into the U.S. from China. As of September 24, 2018, these tariffs were implemented with an initial rate of 10% impacting a portion of our products. On May 10, 2019, the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative increased tariffs on certain imported goods from China to 25%. On May 13, 2019, the U.S. Trade Representative released a list of Chinese-origin products with an annual trade value of approximately $ 300 billion on which the U.S. proposed to impose Section 301 tariffs of up to 25%, which covered almost all remaining imports from China that are not already subject to Section 301 tariffs. On June 29, 2019 President Trump announced that trade negotiations with China are resuming and the proposed Section 301 tariffs on $300 billion worth of Chinese goods, first announced on May 13, 2019, were place on hold. On August 13, 2019, it was announced the Section 301 tariffs on $300 billion would go into effect in two parts. "List 4A" on September 1, 2019 at 10% and "List 4B" on December 15, 2019 at 10%. The progress and continuation of the negotiations continues to be uncertain and a further escalation of the trade war remains a possibility. These tariffs have, and will continue to have, an adverse effect on our results of operations and margins. We can provide no assurance regarding the magnitude, scope or duration of the imposed tariffs or the magnitude, scope or duration from any relief in increases to such tariffs, as well as the potential for additional tariffs or trade barriers by the U.S., China or other countries, nor that any strategies we may implement to mitigate the impact of such tariffs or other trade actions will be successful.

Changes in U.S. social, political, regulatory and economic conditions or in laws and policies governing foreign trade, manufacturing, development and investment in the territories and countries where we currently develop and sell products, and any negative sentiments towards the U.S. as a result of such changes, could also adversely affect our business. For example, if the U.S. government withdraws or materially modifies existing or proposed trade agreements, places greater restriction on free trade generally or imposes increases on tariffs on goods imported into the U.S., particularly from China, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected. In addition, negative sentiments towards the U.S. among non-U.S. customers and among non-U.S. employees or prospective employees could adversely affect sales or hiring and retention, respectively.

The foreign policies of governments may be volatile, and may result in rapid changes to import and export requirements, customs classifications, tariffs, trade sanctions and embargoes or other retaliatory trade measures that may cause us to raise prices, prevent us from offering products or providing services to particular entities or markets, may cause us to make changes to our operations, or create delays and inefficiencies in our supply chain. For example, political unrests and uncertainties in Eastern Europe and Middle East may lead to disruptions in commerce in those regions, which would in turn impact our sales to those regions. Furthermore, if the U.S. government imposes new sanctions against certain countries or entities, such sanctions could sufficiently restrict our ability to market and sell our products and may materially adversely affect our results of operations.

In addition, reports of certain intelligence gathering methods of the U.S. government could affect customers’ perception of the products of companies based in the United States. Trust and confidence in us as an equipment supplier is critical to the development and growth of our markets. Impairment of that trust, or foreign regulatory actions taken in response to reports of certain intelligence gathering methods of the U.S. government, could affect the demand for our products from customers outside of the United States and could have an adverse effect on our results of operations.

Our ability to introduce new products and support our existing products depends on our ability to manage geographically dispersed research and development teams.

Significant parts of our research and development operations are conducted in geographically dispersed localities. Our success depends on the effectiveness of our research and development activities. We must successfully manage these geographically dispersed teams in order to meet our objectives for new product introduction, product quality and product support. It can be difficult to effectively manage geographically dispersed research and development teams. If we fail to do so, we could incur unexpected costs or delays in product development.

Our contract manufacturers, logistics centers and certain administrative and research and development operations are located in areas likely to be subject to natural disasters.

The manufacturing or shipping of our products at one or more facilities may be disrupted because our manufacturing and logistics contractors are primarily located in southern China. Our principal executive offices are located in New York, New York. The risks of earthquakes, extreme storms and other natural disasters in these geographic areas are significant. Any disruption resulting from these events could cause significant delays in product development or shipments of our products until we are able to shift our development, manufacturing or logistics centers from the affected contractor to another vendor, or shift the affected administrative or research and development activities to another location.

Risks Related to Intellectual Property

We have limited ability to obtain and enforce intellectual property rights, and may fail to effectively obtain and enforce such rights.

Our success can depend significantly upon our intellectual property rights. We rely on a combination of patent, copyright, trademark, trade secret laws, and contractual rights to establish, maintain and protect these intellectual property rights, all of which afford only limited protection. Our patent rights, and the prospective rights sought in our pending patent applications, may not be meaningful or provide us with any commercial advantage and they could be opposed, contested, circumvented or designed around by our competitors or be declared invalid or unenforceable in legal proceedings. In addition, patents may not be issued from any of our current or future patent applications. Any failure of our patents or other intellectual property rights to adequately protect our technology might make it easier for our competitors to offer similar products or technologies.

We may fail to apply for patents on important products, services, technologies or designs in a timely fashion, or at all. We may not have sufficient intellectual property rights in all countries where unauthorized third party copying or use of our proprietary technology occurs and the scope of our intellectual property might be more limited in certain countries. Our existing and future patents may not be sufficient to protect our products, services, technologies or designs and/or may not prevent others from developing competing products, services, technologies or designs. We cannot predict the validity and enforceability of our patents and other intellectual property with certainty.

We have registered, and applied to register, certain of our trademarks in several jurisdictions worldwide. In some of those jurisdictions, third party filings exist for the same, similar or otherwise related products or services, which could block the registration of our marks. Even if we are able to register our marks, competitors may adopt or file similar marks to ours, register domain names that mimic or incorporate our marks, or otherwise infringe upon our trademark rights. Although we police our trademark rights carefully, there can be no assurance that we are aware of all third party uses or that we will prevail in enforcing our rights in all such instances. Any of these negative outcomes could impact the strength, value and effectiveness of our brand, as well as our ability to market our products. We have also registered domain names for websites, or URLs, that we use in our business, such as www.ui.com. If we are unable to protect our domain names, our brand, business, and results of operations could be adversely affected. Domain names similar to ours have already been registered in the United States and elsewhere, and we may be unable to prevent third parties from acquiring and using domain names that infringe, are similar to, or otherwise decrease the value of, our brand or our trademarks. In addition, although we own www.ui.com and various other global top level domains, we might not be able to, or may choose not to, acquire or maintain other country-specific URLs in which we currently conduct or intend to conduct business.

Confidentiality agreements with our employees, licensees, independent contractors and others may not effectively prevent disclosure of our trade secrets, and may not provide an adequate remedy in the event of unauthorized use or disclosure of our trade secrets. We may also fail or have failed to obtain such agreements from such persons due to administrative oversights or other reasons.

Monitoring unauthorized use of our intellectual property is difficult and costly. Unauthorized use of our intellectual property, such as the production of counterfeits of our products, and unauthorized registration and use of our trademarks by third parties, is a matter of ongoing concern. The steps we have taken may not prevent unauthorized use of our intellectual property. We may fail to detect infringements of, or take appropriate steps to enforce, our intellectual property rights. Our competitors might independently develop similar technology without infringing our intellectual property rights. Our inability or failure to effectively protect our intellectual property could reduce the value of our technology and could impair our ability to compete. Any inability or failure by us to

17

Table of Contents

meaningfully protect our intellectual property could result in competitors offering products that incorporate our most technologically advanced features.

We have initiated and may continue to initiate legal proceedings to enforce our intellectual property rights. Litigation, whether we are a plaintiff or a defendant, can be expensive and time-consuming, may place our intellectual property at risk of being invalidated or narrowed in scope, and may divert the efforts of our technical staff and managerial personnel.

Enforcement of our intellectual property rights abroad, particularly in China and South America, is limited.

The intellectual property protection and enforcement regimes in certain countries outside the United States are generally not as comprehensive as in the United States, and may not adequately protect our intellectual property. The legal regimes relating to the recognition and enforcement of intellectual property rights in China and South America are particularly limited. Legal proceedings to enforce our intellectual property in these jurisdictions may progress slowly, during which time infringement may continue largely unimpeded. Countries that have relatively inefficient intellectual property protection and enforcement regimes represent a significant portion of the demand for our products. These factors may make it more challenging for us to enforce our intellectual property rights against infringement. The infringement of our intellectual property rights, particularly in these jurisdictions, may materially harm our business in these markets and elsewhere by reducing our sales, and adversely affecting our results of operations, and diluting our brand or reputation.

Our contract manufacturers may not respect our intellectual property, and may produce products that compete with ours.

Our contract manufacturers operate primarily in China, where the prosecution of intellectual property infringement and trade secret theft is more difficult than in the United States. In the past, our contract manufacturers, their affiliates, their other customers or their suppliers have attempted to participate in efforts to misappropriate our intellectual property and trade secrets to manufacture our products for themselves or others without our knowledge. Even if the agreements with our contract manufacturers, and applicable laws, prohibit them from misusing our intellectual property and trade secrets, we may be unsuccessful in monitoring and enforcing our intellectual property rights against them. We have in the past, and may continue to discover, counterfeit goods being sold as our products or as other brands.

We operate in an industry with extensive intellectual property litigation.

Our commercial success depends in part upon us and our component suppliers not infringing intellectual property rights owned by others, and being able to resolve intellectual property claims without major financial expenditures. Our key component suppliers are often targets of intellectual property claims, and we are subject to claims as well.

There are numerous patents and patent applications in the United States and other countries relating to communications technologies. It can be difficult or impossible to conduct meaningful searches for patents relating to our technologies, or to approach third parties to seek a license to their patents. Even extensive searches for patents that may be relevant to our products may not uncover all relevant patents and patent applications. Because of the existence of a large number of patents in the networking field, the secrecy of some pending patents, and the rapid rate of issuance of new patents, it is not economically practical or even possible to determine in advance whether a product or any of its components infringes or will infringe on the patent rights of others. The asserted claims and/or initiated litigation can include claims against us or our manufacturers, suppliers, or customers, alleging infringement of their proprietary rights with respect to our existing or future products or components of those products. Regardless of the merit of these claims, they can be time-consuming, result in costly litigation and diversion of technical and management personnel, or require us to develop a non-infringing technology or enter into license agreements. Where claims are made by customers, resistance even to unmeritorious claims could damage customer relationships.

We cannot determine with certainty whether any existing or future third party intellectual property rights would require us to alter our technologies, obtain licenses or cease certain activities. There can be no assurance that licenses will be available on acceptable terms and conditions, if at all, or that our suppliers will indemnify us, or that any indemnification will be adequate to cover our costs if a claim were brought directly against us or our customers. Furthermore, because of the potential for high court awards that are not necessarily predictable, it is not unusual to find even arguably unmeritorious claims settled for significant amounts.

We have received, and may in the future receive, claims from third parties, including competitors and non-practicing entities, asserting intellectual property infringement and other related claims. We expect to continue to receive such intellectual property claims in the future. As our revenues grow and our profile increases, the frequency and significance of these claims may increase.

Whether or not there is merit to a given claim, it can be time consuming and costly to defend against, and could:

• adversely affect our relationships with our current or future users, customers and suppliers;

• cause delays or stoppages in the shipment of our products;

• cause us to modify or redesign our products;

• cause us to rebrand our products or services;

• subject us to a temporary or permanent injunction;

• divert management’s attention and resources;

• subject us to significant damages or settlements;

• cause us to give up some of our intellectual property;

• require us to enter into costly licensing agreements; or

• require us to cease offering certain of our products or services.

Some of our competitors may have substantially greater resources than we do and may be able to sustain the costs of complex intellectual property litigation to a greater degree and for longer periods of time than we could. In addition, patent holding companies and other third-party non-practicing entities that focus on extracting royalties and settlements by enforcing patent rights may target our component suppliers, manufacturers, us, our distributors, members of our sales channels, our network operators and service providers, or other purchasers of our products. These companies typically have little or no product revenues and therefore our patents may provide little or no deterrence against such companies filing patent infringement lawsuits against our component suppliers, manufacturers, us, our distributors, members of our sales channels, network operators and service providers, or other purchasers of our products.

In addition to liability for monetary damages against us or, in certain circumstances, against end users of our products, we may be prohibited from developing, commercializing or continuing to provide certain of our products unless we obtain licenses from the holders of the patents or other intellectual property rights. We cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain any such licenses on commercially reasonable terms, or at all. If we do not obtain licenses, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially affected and we could, for example, be required to cease offering our products or be required to materially alter our products, which could involve substantial costs and time to develop.

The production of counterfeit versions of our products may reduce our sales levels and damage our brand.

We have in the past and continue to discover counterfeit versions of our products. Although we have taken steps to combat counterfeiting, it is difficult or impossible to detect or prevent all instances of counterfeiting. Particularly if the quality of counterfeit products is poor, damage could be done to our brand. Combating counterfeiting is difficult and expensive, and may not be successful, especially in countries that have a relatively weak legal regime for the protection of intellectual property.

We use open source software in our products that may subject source code to public release or require us to re-engineer our products.

We use open source software in certain of our products, and may use more open source software in the future.

There have been claims challenging the ownership of software against companies that use open source software in the development of their products. We could become subject to claims regarding the ownership of what we believe to be our proprietary software.

Usage of open source software can also lead to greater risks than the use of third party commercial software, since open source licensors generally do not provide warranties or controls on origin of the software.

Some open source licenses contain requirements that users make available and license the source code for the modifications or derivative works that they create based upon the open source software. If we combine our proprietary software with open source software we could, in some circumstances, be required to release our proprietary source code publicly or license such source code on unfavorable terms or at no cost. That could significantly diminish the value of some of our products and negatively affect our business.

Risks Related to Our Management and Structure

We may lose the services of our founder and Chief Executive Officer, Robert J. Pera, or other key personnel.

Our success and future growth depend on the skills, working relationships and continued services of our management team, and in particular our founder and Chief Executive Officer, Robert J. Pera. Our future performance may also depend on our ability to retain other key personnel. We do not maintain any significant key person insurance with regard to any of our personnel.

Our business model relies in part on leanly staffed, independent and efficient research and development teams. Our research and development teams are organized around small groups or individual contributors for a given platform, and there is little overlap in knowledge and responsibilities. In the event that we are unable to retain the services of any key contributors, we may be unable to bring our products or product improvements to market in a timely manner, if at all, due to disruption in our development activities.

Our future success also depends on our ability to attract, retain and motivate skilled personnel. Competition for personnel exists in the industries in which we participate, particularly for persons with specialized experience in areas such as antenna design and radio

19

frequency equipment. If we are unable to attract and retain the necessary personnel our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected.

We may fail to manage our growth effectively and develop and implement appropriate control systems.

We have substantially expanded our business and operations in recent periods, including increases in the number of our distributors, contract manufacturers, headcount locations and facilities. This rapid expansion places a significant strain on our managerial, administrative, and operational resources. Our business model reflects our decision to operate with streamlined infrastructure, with lower support and administrative headcount. This may increase the risks associated with managing our growth, and we may not have sufficient internal resources to adapt or respond to unexpected challenges and compliance requirements.

Our profitability may decline as we expand into new product areas.

We receive a substantial majority of our revenues from the sale of outdoor wireless networking equipment and enterprise WLAN. As we expand into other products and services, such as video surveillance equipment, wireless backhaul, consumer electronics, and machine-to-machine communications, we may not be able to compete effectively with existing market participants and may not be able to realize a positive return on the investment we have made in these products or services. Entering these markets may result in increased product development costs, and our new products may have extended time to market relative to our current products. If our introduction of a new product is not successful, or if we are not able to achieve the revenues or margins we expect, our results of operations may be harmed and we may not recover our product development and marketing expenditures.

We may also be required to add a traditional direct sales force and customer support personnel to market and support new or existing products, which would cause us to experience substantially lower product margins or increase our operating expenses. Adding a traditional direct sales force or customer support personnel would reduce our operating income and may not be successful.

Our operating expenses are increasing as we make expenditures to enhance and expand our operations.

Over the past several years, we have increased our expenditure on infrastructure to support our anticipated growth and as a result of our being a public company. We are continuing to make significant investments in information systems, hiring more administrative personnel, using more professional services and expanding our operations outside the United States. We intend to make additional investments in systems and personnel and continue to expand our operations to support anticipated growth in our business. As a result, we expect our operating expenses to increase.

In addition, we may need in the future to build a traditional direct sales force to market and sell our products or provide additional resources or cooperative funds to our distributors. Such changes to our existing sales model would likely result in higher selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of our revenues.

Compliance with conflict mineral disclosure requirements will create additional compliance cost and may create reputational challenges.

Pursuant to Section 1502 of the Dodd-Frank Act, United States publicly-traded companies are required to disclose use or potential use of certain minerals and their derivatives, including tantalum, tin, gold and tungsten, that are mined from the Democratic Republic of Congo and adjoining countries and deemed conflict minerals.

These requirements necessitate due diligence efforts to assess whether such minerals are used in our products in order to make the relevant required annual disclosures. There are, and will be, ongoing costs associated with complying with these disclosure requirements, including diligence to determine the sources of those minerals that may be used or necessary to the production of our products. We may face reputational challenges that could impact future sales if we determine that certain of our products contain minerals not determined to be conflict free or if we are unable to verify with sufficient accuracy the origins of all conflict minerals used in our products.

We rely on third-party software and services to conduct our enterprise resource planning, financial planning and analysis, and financial reporting. We also rely on third party software and service for our computing, storage, bandwidth, and other services. Any disruption of or interference with these services would negatively affect our operations and seriously harm our business.

We currently use NetSuite and other software and services to conduct our order management and financial processes. The availability of this service is essential to the management of our business. As we expand our operations, we expect to utilize additional systems and service providers that may also be essential to managing our business. Although the systems and services that we require are typically available from a number of providers, it is time consuming and costly to qualify and implement these relationships.

We rely on third party service providers, such as G-Suite, Google Cloud and Amazon Web Services, to provide distributed computing infrastructure platforms for business operations, or what is commonly referred to as a “cloud” computing service. Any transition of the cloud services currently provided by these service providers to another cloud provider would be difficult to

20

Table of Contents

implement and will cause us to incur significant time and expense. If our existing cloud service providers experience interruptions in service regularly or for a prolonged basis, or other similar issues, our business would be seriously harmed. Additionally, our existing cloud service providers have broad discretion to change and interpret its terms of service and other policies with respect to us, and they may take actions beyond our control that could harm our business.

Our ability to manage our business would suffer if one or more of our providers suffer an interruption in their business, or experience delays, disruptions or quality control problems in their operations, or we have to change or add additional systems and services. We may not be able to control the quality of the systems and services we receive from third party service providers, which could impair our financial reporting and may negatively impact our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our debt levels could adversely affect our ability to raise additional capital to pay dividends, repurchase our shares of common stock and fund our operations or limit our ability to react to changes in our industry or the economy.

As of June 30, 2019, our balance outstanding under our Term Facility and Revolving Facility, under the Second Amended & Restated Credit Agreement, was $462.5 million and $35.0 million, respectively. In the future we may need to raise additional capital to finance our payment of dividends or repurchase shares of our common stock and fund our growth and operational goals. If additional financing is not available when required or on acceptable terms, we may not be able to pay dividends, repurchase shares of common stock, expand our business, develop or enhance our products, take advantage of business opportunities or respond to competitive pressures, which could result in lower revenues and reduce the competitiveness of our products.

In addition, any potential debt level increases could have important consequences, including:

requiring a substantial portion of cash flows from operations to be dedicated to the payment of principal and interest on our indebtedness, thereby reducing our ability to use our cash flows to fund our operations and capital expenditures, pay dividends, repurchase shares of our common stock and pursue business opportunities;

• increasing our vulnerability to general industry and economic conditions;

• limiting our ability to make strategic acquisitions or causing us to make non-strategic divestitures;

• limiting our ability to obtain additional financing for working capital, capital expenditures, debt service requirements, acquisitions and general corporate or other purposes; and

• limiting our ability to adjust to changing market conditions and placing us at a competitive disadvantage compared to competitors who are less highly leveraged or have access to more capital.

If we are unable to integrate future acquisitions successfully, our business, results of operations and prospects could be harmed.

We may make acquisitions to improve or expand our product offerings. Our future acquisition strategy will depend on our ability to identify, negotiate, complete and integrate acquisitions. These transactions involve numerous risks, including:

• difficulties in integrating and managing the operations, technologies and products of the companies we acquire, particularly in light of our lean organizational structure;

• diversion of our management’s attention from normal daily operation of our business;

• our inability to maintain the key business relationships and the brand equity of the businesses we acquire;

• our inability to retain key personnel of the acquired business, particularly in light of the demands we place on individual contributors;

• uncertainty of entry into markets in which we have limited or no prior experience and in which competitors have stronger market positions;

• our dependence on unfamiliar affiliates and partners of the companies we acquire;

• insufficient revenues to offset our increased expenses associated with acquisitions;

• our responsibility for the liabilities of the businesses we acquire, including those which we may not anticipate; and

• our inability to maintain internal standards, controls, procedures and policies, particularly in light of our lean organizational structure.

We may be unable to secure the equity or debt funding necessary to finance future acquisitions on terms that are acceptable to us. Completing acquisitions could consume significant amounts of cash. If we finance acquisitions by issuing equity or convertible debt securities, our existing stockholders will likely experience dilution, and if we finance future acquisitions with debt funding, we will incur interest expense and may have to comply with covenants and secure that debt obligation with our assets.

Our investments in new businesses, products, services, technologies, joint ventures and other strategic transactions are inherently risky, and could disrupt our current operations.

21

Table of Contents

We have invested and expect to continue to invest in new businesses, products, services, technologies, joint ventures and other strategic initiatives. These investments may involve significant risks and uncertainties, including insufficient revenues from such investments to offset any new liabilities assumed and expenses incurred in connection with these new investments, inadequate return of or loss of our investments, distraction of management from current operations, and unidentified issues not discovered in our due diligence of such investments that could cause us to fail to realize the anticipated benefits of such investments and incur unanticipated costs, expenses and liabilities. Because these investments are inherently risky, no assurance can be given that such investments will be successful and will not adversely affect our reputation, business prospects, results of operation and financial condition.

Risks Related to Our Common Stock

Our Chief Executive Officer owns a majority of our common stock.

Robert J. Pera, our founder, Chairman, and Chief Executive Officer, is able to exercise voting rights with respect to a majority of the voting power of our outstanding stock and therefore has the ability to control the outcome of matters submitted to our stockholders for approval, including the election of directors and any merger, consolidation, or sale of all or substantially all of our assets. This concentrated control could delay, defer, or prevent a change of control, merger, consolidation, or sale of all or substantially all of our assets that our other stockholders support, or conversely this concentrated control could result in the consummation of such a transaction that our other stockholders do not support. This concentrated control could also discourage certain potential investors from acquiring our common stock and might harm the trading price of our stock. In addition, Mr. Pera has the ability to control the management and major strategic investments of our company as a result of his position as our Chief Executive Officer and his ability to control the election or replacement of our directors. In the event of his death, the shares of our stock that Mr. Pera owns will be transferred to his successors. As a board member and officer, Mr. Pera owes a fiduciary duty to our stockholders and must act in good faith in a manner he reasonably believes to be in the best interests of our stockholders. As a stockholder, even a controlling stockholder, Mr. Pera is entitled to vote his shares in his own interests, which may not always be in the interests of our stockholders generally.

As of August 20, 2019, Mr. Pera beneficially owned 56,278,181 shares of our common stock. These shares are eligible for resale into the public market within the restrictions imposed by Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933. Sales of a significant amount of Mr. Pera’s shares could adversely affect the market price for our common stock. Mr. Pera had informed us he has entered into arrangements under which he has pledged up to 25% of the shares of our common stock that he beneficially owns to secure loans with financial institutions. Mr. Pera had also indicated these loans have or will have various requirements to repay all or a portion of the loan upon the occurrence of various events, including when the price of the common stock goes below certain specified levels. Mr. Pera may need to sell shares of our common stock to meet these repayment requirements. Upon a default under one or more of these loans, the lender could sell the pledged shares into the market without limitation on volume or manner of sale. Sales of shares by Mr. Pera to reduce his loan balance or the lenders upon foreclosure are likely to adversely affect our stock price. Mr. Pera has also indicated to us that he may in the future from time to time pledge additional shares of common stock as collateral for margin or other loans, enter into derivative transactions based on the value of our common stock, dispose of shares of common stock, otherwise monetize shares of his common stock and/or engage in other transactions relating to shares of our common stock and/or other securities of the company. Any of these activities by Mr. Pera may adversely affect the price of our common stock. However, Mr. Pera has also indicated that he intends to continue to own at least a majority of our outstanding shares of common stock.

Not paying cash dividends to our stockholders, or repurchasing shares of our common stock pursuant to our previously announced stock repurchase program, could cause the market price for our common stock to decline.

Our payment of cash dividends is subject to, among other things, declaration by the Board of Directors of the Company our financial position and results of operations, available cash and cash flow, capital requirements, our obligations, contingent liabilities, applicable corporate legal requirements, and other factors. If the Company fails to meet expectations related to dividends, its stock price may decline, which could have a material adverse impact on investor confidence and employee retention. These and other factors may also affect the continuation of, or activity under, our previously announced stock repurchase program. Failure to pay cash dividends could cause the market price of our common stock to decline. The discontinuance of, or lack of activity under, our previously announced stock repurchase program could also result in a lower market price of our common stock.

Fluctuations in our results of operations could cause the market price of our common stock to decline.

Our quarterly results of operations fluctuate significantly due to a variety of factors, many of which are outside of our control and are difficult or impossible to predict. We expect our results of operations will continue to fluctuate. You should not rely on our past results as an indication of our future performance. If our revenues or results of operations fall below the expectations of investors or securities analysts, or below any estimates we may provide to the market, the price of our common stock would likely decline substantially, which could have a material adverse impact on investor confidence and employee retention. Our common stock has experienced substantial price volatility since our initial public offering. In addition, the stock market as a whole has experienced major price and volume fluctuations that have affected the stock price of many technology companies in ways that may have been unrelated to these companies’ operating performance.

22

Table of Contents

Factors that could cause our results of operation and stock price to fluctuate include:

• varying demand for our products due to the financial and operating condition of our distributors and their customers, distributor inventory management practices and general economic conditions;

• shifts in our fulfillment practices including increasing inventory levels as part of efforts to decrease our delivery lead times;

• failure of our suppliers to provide chips or other components;

• failure of our contract manufacturers and suppliers to meet our demand;

• success and timing of new product introductions by us, and our competitors;

• increased warranty costs;

• announcements by us or our competitors regarding products, promotions or other transactions;

• costs related to legal proceedings or responding to government inquiries;

• our ability to control and reduce product costs; and

• expenses of our entry into new markets.

In addition, our business may be subject to seasonality, although our recent growth rates and timing of product introductions may have historically masked our seasonal changes in demand. For example, our consumer products may be subject to general seasonal spending trends associated with holidays.

Risks Related to Regulatory, Legal and Tax Matters

We are subject to export control and economic sanctions laws in the United States and elsewhere which could impair our ability to compete in international markets and subject us to liability if we do not comply with applicable laws.

A substantial majority of our sales are into countries outside of the United States. Sales of our products into certain countries are restricted or prohibited under U.S. export control and economic sanctions laws. In addition, certain of our products incorporate encryption components that are subject to export control regulations.

In May 2011, we filed a self-disclosure statement with the U.S. Commerce Department, Bureau of Industry and Security’s (“BIS”) Office of Export Enforcement (“OEE”) relating a review conducted by us regarding certain export transactions from 2008 through March 2011 in which products may have been later sold into Iran by third parties. In June 2011, we also filed a self-disclosure statement with the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Asset Control (“OFAC”) regarding these compliance issues. We resolved the matters described in our self-disclosures with the BIS and OFAC, and have taken significant steps towards ensuring our compliance with export control regulations and embargoes. It is, however, possible that violations may occur in the future. If violations should occur in the future, the response of regulators may be more severe in light of prior compliance concerns.

In addition to U.S. export regulations, various other countries regulate the import of certain encryption technology and products, and these laws could limit our ability to distribute our products or our customers’ ability to implement our products in those countries. Changes in our products or changes in export and import regulations may create delays in the introduction of our products in other countries, prevent our customers with international operations from deploying our products or, in some cases, prevent the transfer of our products to certain countries altogether. Any change in export or import regulations or related legislation, shift in approach to the enforcement or scope of existing regulations, or change in the countries, persons or technologies targeted by such regulations, could negatively impact our ability to sell our products to existing customers or the ability of our current and potential distributors, network operators and service providers outside the United States.

Even though we take precautions to prevent our products from being provided to targets of U.S. sanctions, our products, including our firmware updates, could be provided by our distributors, resellers and/or end users despite such precautions. Any such provision could have negative consequences, including government investigations, penalties and reputational harm. Our failure or inability to obtain required import or export approval for our products could harm our international and domestic sales and adversely affect our revenue.

New regulations or changes in existing regulations related to our products may result in unanticipated burdens, costs and liabilities.

Products that involve electromagnetic emissions are subject to regulation in the United States and the other countries in which we do business. In the United States, various federal agencies including the Center for Devices and Radiological Health of the Food and Drug Administration, the Federal Communications Commission, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration and various state agencies have promulgated regulations that concern the use of electromagnetic emissions standards. Member countries of the EU and other countries have enacted similar standards concerning electrical safety and electromagnetic compatibility and emissions standards. If any of our products becomes subject to new regulations or if any of our products becomes specifically regulated by additional government entities, compliance with such regulations could become more burdensome, and we may be unable to ship our products or they may cost substantially more to produce, which would reduce our revenues and increase our cost of revenues.

Our failure to comply with U.S. and foreign laws related to privacy, data security, cybersecurity and data protection, such as the E.U. Data Protection Directive and China Cybersecurity Law, could adversely affect our financial condition, results of operations, and our brand.

We are or may become subject to a variety of laws and regulations in the United States and abroad regarding privacy, data security, cybersecurity and data protection. These laws and regulations are continuously evolving and developing. The scope and interpretation of the laws that are or may be applicable to us are often uncertain and may be conflicting, particularly with respect to foreign laws.

In particular, there are numerous U.S. federal, state, and local laws and regulations and foreign laws and regulations regarding privacy and the collection, sharing, use, processing, disclosure, and protection of personal information and other user data. Such laws and regulations often have changes in scope, may be subject to differing interpretations, and may be inconsistent among different jurisdictions. For example, in April 2016, the E.U. Parliament approved a new data protection regulation, known as the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”), which came into force on May 25, 2018. The GDPR includes operational requirements for companies that receive or process personal data of residents of the European Union that are different than those previously in place in the European Union, and that include significant penalties for non-compliance. Another example, in November 2016, the Standing Committee of China’s National People’s Congress passed China’s first Cybersecurity Law (“CSL”), which took effect in June 2017. The CSL is the first Chinese law that systematically lays out the regulatory requirements on cybersecurity and data protection, subjecting many previously under-regulated or unregulated activities in cyberspace to government scrutiny. More recently, California enacted the California Consumer Privacy Act (the “CCPA”) that will, among other things, require covered companies to provide new disclosures to California consumers, and afford such consumers new abilities to opt-out of certain sales of personal information, when it goes into effect on January 1, 2020. California legislators have announced the intent to modify the CCPA, and, as a result, we cannot yet predict the impact of the CCPA on our business or operations. The costs of compliance with, and other burdens imposed by, the GDPR, CSL and CCPA may limit the use and adoption of our products and services and could have an adverse impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We strive to comply with all applicable laws, policies and legal obligations relating to privacy, data security, cybersecurity and data protection. However, given that the scope, interpretation, and application of these laws and regulations are often uncertain and may be conflicting, it is possible that these obligations may be interpreted and applied in a manner that is inconsistent from one jurisdiction to another and may conflict with other rules or our practices. Any failure or perceived failure by us or third-party service-providers to comply with our privacy or security policies or privacy-related legal obligations, or any compromise of security that results in the unauthorized release or transfer of personally identifiable information or other user data, may result in governmental enforcement actions, litigation, or negative publicity, and could have an adverse effect on our brand, results of operations and financial condition.

Governments are continuing to focus on privacy, cybersecurity, data protection and data security and it is possible that new privacy or data security laws will be passed or existing laws will be amended in a way that is material to our business. Any significant change to applicable laws, regulations, or industry practices regarding our employees' and users’ data could require us to modify our business, services and products features, possibly in a material manner, and may limit our ability to develop new products, services, and features. Although we have made efforts to design our policies, procedures, and systems to comply with the current requirements of applicable state, federal, and foreign laws, changes to applicable laws and regulations in this area could subject us to additional regulation and oversight, any of which could significantly increase our operating costs.

Government regulations designed to protect personal privacy may make it difficult for us to sell our products.

Our products may transmit and store personal information. The handling of such information is increasingly subject to regulations in numerous jurisdictions around the world. These regulations are typically intended to protect the privacy and security of personal information that is collected, stored and transmitted in or from the governing jurisdiction. In addition, because various foreign jurisdictions have different regulations concerning the storage and transmission of personal information, we may face unknown requirements that pose compliance challenges in new geographic markets that we seek to enter. Our efforts to protect the privacy of information may also fail if our encryption and security technology is inadequate or fails to operate as expected. The difficulties in complying with privacy and data protection regulations could subject us to costs, delayed product launches, liabilities or negative publicity that could impair our ability to maintain or expand our operations into some countries and therefore limit our future growth.

The vast majority of our products rely on the availability of specific unlicensed radio frequency spectrum.

The vast majority of our products operate in unlicensed radio frequency (“RF”) spectrum, which is used by a wide range of devices such as cordless phones, baby monitors, and microwave ovens, and is becoming increasingly crowded. If such spectrum usage continues to increase through the proliferation of consumer electronics and products competitive with ours, and others, the resultant higher levels of clutter and interference in the frequency bands used by our products could decrease the usage of our products. Our business could be further harmed if currently unlicensed RF spectrum becomes subject to licensing in the United States or elsewhere. Network operators and service providers that use our products may be unable to obtain licenses for RF spectrum at

24

---

Table of Contents

reasonable prices or at all. Even if the unlicensed spectrum remains unlicensed, existing and new government regulations may require we make changes in our products. For example, to provide products for network operators and service providers who utilize unlicensed RF spectrum, we may be required to limit their ability to use our products in licensed RF spectrum. The operation of our products by network operators or service providers in the United States or elsewhere in a manner not in compliance with local law could result in fines, operational disruption, or harm to our reputation. In addition, if new spectrums, either licensed or unlicensed, are made available by government regulatory agencies for broadband wireless communication that may disrupt the competitive landscape of our industry and impact our business.

We could be adversely affected by unfavorable results in litigation.

We may be involved, from time to time, in a variety of claims, lawsuits, investigations, and proceedings relating to contractual disputes, intellectual property rights, employment matters, regulatory compliance matters, consumer or securities class-actions and other litigation matters relating to various claims that arise in the normal course of business and otherwise. It can be difficult or impossible to predict the outcome of legal proceedings with any degree of certainty, particularly given that laws may be ambiguous and factual findings can often be the result of incomplete evidence, opinions, varying standards or proof, and extraneous factors. Any such proceedings or matters may adversely affect how we operate the business, divert the attention of management from the operation of the business, have an adverse effect on our reputation, result in additional costs and adversely affect our results of operations. If one or more of the legal proceedings to which we may be or become a party are resolved against us, our results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected.

We may become subject to warranty claims, product liability and product recalls.

We have received, and may in the future receive, warranty or product liability claims that may require us to make significant expenditures to defend these claims or pay damage awards. In the event of a successful warranty claim, we may also incur costs if we compensate the affected network operator or service provider. Such claims may require a significant amount of time and expense to resolve and defend against, and could also harm our reputation by calling into question the quality of our products. We also may incur costs and expenses relating to a recall of one or more of our products. The process of identifying recalled products that have been widely distributed may be lengthy and require significant resources and we may incur significant replacement costs, contract damage claims and harm to our reputation.

Our customers and the users of our products may expect us to indemnify them against claims for intellectual property infringement, defective products and other losses.

Our customers, users and other parties may expect us to indemnify them for losses incurred in connection with our products, including as a result of intellectual property infringement, defective products, and security vulnerabilities, even if our agreements with them do not require us to provide this indemnification. In some instances, we may decide to defend and indemnify them, irrespective of whether we believe that we have an obligation to do so. The expenses associated with providing indemnification can be substantial. We may also reject demands for indemnification, which may lead to disputes with a customer or other party and may negatively impact our relationships with them.

If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal controls, we may not be able to accurately report our financial condition or results of operations or safeguard our assets.

Effective internal controls over financial reporting are necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports and, together with other controls and procedures, are designed to prevent fraud. Any failure to implement required new or improved controls, or difficulties encountered in their implementation, could cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations, and prevent us from producing accurate and timely financial statements to manage our business. If we fail to do so, our business could be negatively affected and our independent registered public accounting firm may be unable to attest to the fair presentation of our Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, as required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. If we cannot provide reliable financial reports and effectively prevent fraud, our reputation and results of operations could be harmed. Even effective internal controls have inherent limitations, including the possibility of human error, the circumvention or overriding of controls, or fraud. Therefore, even effective internal controls can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements. In addition, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting in future periods are subject to the risk that the control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or a deterioration in the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures. We have in the past and may in the future fail to maintain adequate internal controls. For example, as reported in the Annual Reports on Form 10-K for the years ended June 30, 2015 and 2016, management of the Company determined that the Company did not maintain an effective control environment, which contributed to three material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting. As described in more detail in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for year ended June 30, 2017, under Item 9A. “Controls and Procedures”, the Company has completed the remediation efforts of such material weakness, completed testing of the controls to address such material weaknesses and concluded that the previously reported material weaknesses in internal controls over financial

25

Table of Contents

reporting have been satisfactorily remediated as of June 30, 2017. Any such failure (including any failure to implement new or improved controls, difficulties in the execution of such implementation or deterioration of our current control practices) may result in an inability to prevent fraud, or cause us to fail to meet our reporting obligations. Any such failures may cause a material adverse effect on our business and financial results, and investor confidence and the market price of our stock may be adversely affected.

Failure to comply with the FCPA and similar laws could subject us to penalties and other adverse consequences.

We face significant risks if we fail to comply with the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (“FCPA”) of the United States and other laws (such as the U.K. Bribery Act of 2010) that prohibit improper payments or offers of payment to foreign governments and their officials and political parties by us and other business entities acting on our behalf for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business. In many foreign countries, particularly in countries with developing economies, which represent our principal markets, it may be a local custom that businesses operating in such countries engage in business practices that are prohibited by the FCPA or other laws and regulations. Although we have implemented a company policy requiring our employees and consultants to comply with the FCPA and similar laws, there can be no assurance that all of our employees, and agents, as well as those companies to which we outsource certain of our business operations, will not take actions in violation of our policies, for which we may be ultimately held responsible. Any violation of FCPA or similar laws could result in severe criminal or civil sanctions and suspension or debarment from U.S. government contracting, which could have a material and adverse effect on our reputation, business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our results could be adversely affected by unfavorable tax law changes, an unfavorable government review of our tax returns, or changes in our geographic earnings mix.

We are subject to periodic audits or other reviews by tax authorities in the jurisdictions in which we conduct our activities. Tax authorities could challenge our assertions with respect to how we have conducted our business operations as might result in a claim for larger tax payments from us, including, but not limited to, income and withholding taxes. The expense of defending and resolving such audits may be significant.

In the ordinary course of our business, there are many instances where the determination of tax implications is uncertain. Our calculations of income taxes may be based on our interpretations of applicable tax laws in the jurisdictions in which we file. The final determination of our income tax liabilities may be materially different than what is reflected in our income tax provisions and accruals.

The legislative bodies in many jurisdictions regularly consider proposed legislation that, if adopted, could affect our tax rate in such jurisdictions, and the carrying value of our deferred tax assets or our tax liabilities. Multi-jurisdictional changes enacted in response to the guidelines provided by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) to address base erosion and profit shifting ("BEPS"), and additional amendments or guidance regarding comprehensive U.S. tax reform, among other things, may change certain U.S. tax rules impacting the way U.S. multinationals are taxed, increase tax uncertainty and adversely impact our provision for income taxes.

As a global company, we conduct operations in multiple jurisdictions, and therefore our effective tax rate is influenced by the amounts of income and expense attributed to each such jurisdiction and the amount and type of presence in each such jurisdiction. If such amounts were to change so as to increase the amounts of our net income subject to taxation in higher tax jurisdictions, or if we were to increase our operations in jurisdictions assessing relatively higher tax rates, our effective tax rate could be adversely affected. Additionally, withholding taxes vary by jurisdiction and any changes to our operations in each jurisdiction could result in greater taxation to the company. A number of factors may affect our future effective tax rates including, but not limited to:

• the interpretation of country-by-country reports and outcome of discussions with various tax authorities regarding

intercompany transfer pricing arrangements;

• changes that involve Ubiquiti’s supply chain outside of the United States;

• changes in the composition of earnings in countries or states with differing tax rates;

• the resolution of issues arising from tax audits with various tax authorities,

• changes to tax laws regarding R&D tax credits;

• changes in stock-based compensation; and

• changes in tax law and/or generally accepted accounting principles;

From time to time the United States, foreign and state governments make substantive changes to tax rules and the application of rules to companies which may impact our taxes on international earnings. We regularly assess the likelihood of favorable or unfavorable outcomes resulting from examinations to determine the adequacy of our provision for income taxes. Although we believe our tax estimates are reasonable, there can be no assurance that any final determination will not be materially different than the treatment reflected in our historical income tax provisions and accruals, which could materially and adversely affect our business results of operations and financial condition.

Changes in applicable tax regulations could negatively affect our financial results.

On December 22, 2017, the U.S. government enacted comprehensive tax legislation commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “2017 Tax Act”). The 2017 Tax Act significantly changes the taxation of U.S.-based multinational corporations, by, among other things, reducing the U.S. corporate income tax rate, changing rules regarding the use and carrying of net operating losses, adopting elements of a territorial tax system, assessing a one-time transition tax under revised Section 965 of the Internal Revenue Code on earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries that were previously tax deferred (the "Transition Tax"), imposing a new minimum tax if deductible payments to foreign affiliates exceed a certain threshold, and creating new taxes on certain foreign-sourced earnings. The changes included in the 2017 Tax Act are broad and complex. The 2017 Tax Act is also unclear in some respects and has required and will continue to require interpretations and implementing regulations from the U.S. Treasury and Internal Revenue Service, as well as state tax authorities, and the legislation could be subject to potential amendments and technical corrections, any of which could lessen or increase certain adverse impacts of the legislation. The final transition impacts of the 2017 Tax Act may differ from the estimates provided elsewhere in this report, possibly materially, due to, among other things, changes in interpretations of the Tax Act, any legislative action to address questions that arise because of the Tax Act, any changes related interpretations in response to the 2017 Tax Act, or any updates or changes to estimates we have utilized to calculate the transition impacts.

A significant portion of our earnings are earned by our subsidiaries outside the U.S. Changes to the taxation of certain foreign earnings resulting from the 2017 Tax Act, along with the state tax impact of these changes and potential future cash distributions, may have an adverse effect on our effective tax rate. Furthermore, changes to the taxation of undistributed foreign earnings could change our future intentions regarding reinvestment of such earnings. Although the accounting for the impact of the 2017 Tax Act was completed as of December 22, 2018, we are continuing to evaluate the overall impact of the 2017 Tax Act on our operations and U.S. federal income tax position. There can be no assurance that further changes in the 2017 Tax Act will not materially and adversely affect our effective tax rate, tax payments, financial condition and results of operations.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Overview

Table of Contents

We develop technology platforms for high-capacity distributed Internet access, unified information technology, and consumer electronics for professional, home and personal use. We categorize our solutions in to three main categories: high performance networking technology for service providers, enterprises and consumers.

The majority of our resources consist of entrepreneurial and de-centralized research and development ("R&D"). We do not employ a traditional direct sales force, but instead drives brand awareness through online reviews and publications, our website, its distributors and the company’s user community where customers can interface directly with R&D, marketing, and support. Our technology platforms were designed from the ground up with a focus on delivering highly-advanced and easily deployable solutions that appeal to a global customer base markets.

We offer a broad and expanding portfolio of networking products and solutions for operator-owners of wireless internet services ("WISP's"), enterprises and smart homes. Our operator-owner service provider-product platforms provide carrier-class network infrastructure for fixed wireless broadband, wireless backhaul systems and routing and the related software for WISP's to easily control, track and bill their customers. Our enterprise product platforms provide wireless LAN ("WLAN") infrastructure, video surveillance products, switching and routing solutions, security gateways, and other complimentary WLAN products along with a unique software platform, which enables users to control their network from one simple, easy to use software interface. Our consumer products, sold under the Ubiquiti Labs brand name, are targeted to the smart home and highly connected consumers. We believe that our products are highly differentiated due to our proprietary software, firmware expertise, and hardware design capabilities.

As a core part of our strategy, we have developed a differentiated business model for marketing and selling high volumes of carrier and enterprise-class communications platforms. Our business model is driven by a large, growing and highly engaged community of service providers, distributors, value added resellers, systems integrators and corporate IT professionals, which we refer to as the Ubiquiti Community. The Ubiquiti Community is a one element of our business strategy as it enables us to drive:

• Rapid customer and community driven product development. We have an active, loyal community built from our customers that we believe is a sustainable competitive advantage. Our solutions benefit from the active engagement between the Ubiquiti Community and our development engineers throughout the product development cycle, which eliminates long and expensive multistep internal processes and results in rapid introduction and adoption of our products. This approach significantly reduces our development costs and time to market.

• Scalable sales and marketing model. We do not maintain the traditional direct sales force as compared to some of our competitors, but instead utilize our distribution partners, digital marketing and the Ubiquiti Community to drive market awareness and demand for our products and solutions. We believe this community-propagated viral marketing enables us to reach markets far more efficiently and cost-effectively than is possible through traditional sales models. Leveraging the information transparency of the Internet allows customers to research, evaluate and validate our solutions with the Ubiquiti Community and via third party web sites.

By reducing the cost of development, sales, marketing and support we are able to offer innovative solutions with disruptive price performance characteristics to our customers.

Key Components of Our Results of Operations and Financial Condition

Revenues

We operate our business as one reportable and operating segment. Further information regarding Segments can be found in Note 14 to our Consolidated Financial Statements. Our revenues are derived principally from the sale of networking hardware and management tools. Because we have historically included implied post-contract customer support ("PCS") free of charge in many of our arrangements, we attribute a portion of our systems revenues to this implied PCS.

We classify our revenues into two primary product categories: Service Provider Technology and Enterprise Technology.

• Service Provider Technology includes our airMAX, EdgeMAX, UFiber, and airFiber platforms, as well as embedded radio products and other 802.11 standard products including base stations, radios, backhaul equipment and CPE. Additionally, Service Provider Technology includes antennas and other products primarily in the 0.9 to 6.0 GHz spectrum and miscellaneous products such as mounting brackets, cables and power over Ethernet adapters.

• Enterprise Technology includes our UniFi enterprise Wi-Fi, UniFi Protect Products, UniFi switching and routing solutions, including AmpliFi.

Table of Contents

We sell our products and solutions globally to service providers and enterprises primarily through our extensive network of distributors, and, to a lesser extent, direct customers. Sales to distributors accounted for 97% of our revenues in the year ended June 30, 2019.

Cost of Revenues

Our cost of revenues is comprised primarily of the costs of procuring finished goods from our contract manufacturers and certain key components that we consign to certain of our contract manufacturers. In addition, cost of revenues include labor and other costs w hich includes salary, benefits and stock-based compensation, in addition to costs associated with tooling, testing and quality assurance, warranty costs, logistics costs, tariffs and excess and obsolete inventory reserves.

We currently operate warehouses located in U.S. and the Czech Republic. In addition, we outsource other logistics warehousing and order fulfillment functions located in China. We also evaluate and utilize other vendors for various portions of our supply chain from time to time. Our operations organization consists of employees and consultants engaged in the management of our contract manufacturers, new product introduction activities, logistical support and engineering.

Gross Profit

Our gross profit has been, and may in the future be, influenced by several factors including changes in product mix, target end markets for our products, channel inventory levels, tariffs, pricing due to competitive pressure, production costs and global demand for electronic components. Although we procure and sell our products mostly in U.S. dollars, our contract manufacturers incur many costs, including labor costs, in other currencies. To the extent that the exchange rates move unfavorably for our contract manufacturers, they may try to pass these additional costs on to us, which could have a material impact on our future average selling prices and unit costs. In June 2018, the Office of the United States Trade Representative announced new proposed tariffs for certain products imported into the U.S. from China. As of September 24, 2018, these tariffs were implemented with an initial rate of 10% impacting a portion of our products. On May 10, 2019, the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative increased tariffs on certain imported goods from China to 25%. On May 13, 2019, the U.S. Trade Representative released a list of Chinese-origin products with an annual trade value of approximately $ 300 billion on which the U.S. proposed to impose Section 301 tariffs of up to 25%, which covered almost all remaining imports from China that are not already subject to Section 301 tariffs. On June 29, 2019 President Trump announced that trade negotiations with China are resuming and the proposed Section 301 tariffs on $300 billion worth of Chinese goods, first announced on May 13, 2019, were place on hold. On August 13, 2019, it was announced the Section 301 tariffs on $300 billion would go into effect in two parts. "List 4A" on September 1, 2019 at 10% and "List 4B" on December 15, 2019 at 10%. The progress and continuation of the negotiations continues to be uncertain and an escalation of the trade war remains a possibility. These tariffs have already affected our operating results and margins. As a result, current gross profit margins may not be indicative of future periods. Refer to “Part I—Item 1A. Risk Factors—Risks Related to Our International Operations—Our business may be negatively affected by political events and foreign policy responses” for additional information.

Operating Expenses

We classify our operating expenses as research and development, selling, general and administrative expenses, litigation expenses and expense related to the business email compromise fraud loss.

 

• Research and development expenses consist primarily of salary and benefit expenses, including stock-based compensation, for employees and costs for contractors engaged in research, design and development activities, as well as costs for prototypes, licensed or purchased intellectual property, facilities and travel. Over time, we expect our research and development costs to increase as we continue making significant investments in developing new products in addition to new versions of our existing products.

• Sales, general and administrative expenses include salary and benefit expenses, including stock-based compensation, for employees and costs for contractors engaged in sales, marketing and general and administrative activities, as well as the costs of legal expenses, trade shows, marketing programs, promotional materials, bad debt expense, professional services, facilities, general liability insurance and travel. As our product portfolio and targeted markets expand, we may need to employ different sales models, such as building a traditional direct sales force. These sales models would likely increase our costs. Over time, we expect our sales, general and administrative expenses to increase in absolute dollars due to continued growth in headcount, expansion of our efforts to register and defend trademarks and patents and to support our business and operations

Critical Accounting Policies

We prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). In many cases, the accounting treatment of a particular transaction is specifically dictated by GAAP and does not require management’s judgment in its application. In other cases, management’s judgment is required in selecting among available alternative accounting standards that provide for different accounting treatment for similar transactions. The preparation of

32

Table of Contents

consolidated financial statements also requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts we report as assets, liabilities, revenues, costs and expenses and affect the related disclosures. We base our estimates on historical experience and other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. In many instances, we could reasonably use different accounting estimates, and in some instances, changes in the accounting estimates are reasonably likely to occur from period to period. Accordingly, our actual results could differ significantly from the estimates made by our management. To the extent that there are differences between our estimates and actual results, our future financial statement presentation, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows will be affected. We believe that the accounting policies discussed below are critical to understanding our historical and future performance, as these policies relate to the more significant areas involving management’s judgments and estimates.

Recognition of Revenues

Prior to fiscal year 2019, our revenue recognition policy was based on ASC 605 - Revenue Recognition ("ASC 605") and is described in the section entitled Critical Accounting Policies under Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018, filed with the SEC on August 24, 2018. Effective July 1, 2018, we adopted the new revenue recognition guidance under ASC 606 as discussed in the section titled Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncement s in Note 2 of our consolidated financial statements included in Part II, Item 8, of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

We primarily generate revenue from sales of hardware and the related essential software ("Products") as well as related implied post contract customer services ("PCS"). We recognize revenue when obligations under the terms of a contract with our customers are satisfied, generally, upon transfer of control of promised goods or services to customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to receive in exchange for those goods or services. We apply the following five-step revenue recognition model:

• Identification of the contract, or contracts with a custome r

• Identification of the performance obligations in the contract

• Determination of the transaction price

• Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract

• Recognition of revenue when, or as, we satisfy the performance obligation

Transfer of control to the customer for products generally occurs at the point in time when products have been picked up at our logistics centers by our distribution partners or in the case of web based sales when the customer has received the products as this represents the point in time when the customer has a present obligation to pay and physical possession including title and risk of loss have been transferred to the customer. Revenue for PCS is deferred and recognized ratably over time over the estimated period for which implied PCS services will be delivered.

PCS, is the right to receive on a when-and-if available basis, future unspecified software upgrades and features relating to the product's essential software as well as technical support and bug fixes.

The Company accounts for a contract with a customer when there is an approval and commitment from both parties, the rights of the parties are identified, payment terms are identified, the contract has commercial substance and collectability of the consideration is probable. The Company's distinct performance obligations consist mainly of transferring control of its products identified in the contracts, purchase orders or invoices and implied PCS services.

Our contracts with the majority of our distribution customers do not include provisions for cancellations, returns, inventory swaps, or refunds that materially impact recognized revenue. Internet or Web based sales include regulatory provisions which allow customers to return the goods, generally within 30 days. The Web based sales have not been material to the Company results and potential refund would not materially impact recognized revenue.

We record amounts billed to distributors for shipping and handling costs as revenues. We classify shipping and handling costs incurred by us as cost of revenue. Deposits payments received from distributors in advance of recognition of revenues are included in current liabilities of our balance sheet and are recognized as revenues when all the criteria for recognition of revenues are met.

Transaction price and allocation to performance obligations

Transaction prices are typically based on contracted rates. Although payment terms vary, payment is generally due from customers within 60 days of the invoice date and the contracts do not have significant financing components or include extended payment terms. The Company is directly responsible for fulfilling its performance obligations in contracts with customers and does not rely on another party to fulfill its promise. We use observable list prices to determine the stand-alone selling price of our performance obligation related to our products, and we utilize a cost plus margin approach to estimate the stand-alone selling price of our implied PCS obligation. When our contracts contain multiple performance obligation, we allocate the transaction price based on the estimated standalone selling price s of the promised products or services underlying each performance obligation.

The expected costs associated with our base warranties continue to be recognized as an expense when the products are sold and is not considered a separate performance obligation.

Costs for research and development and sales and marketing are expensed as incurred. If the estimated life of the

hardware product should change, the future rate of amortization of the revenues allocated to PCS could also change.

Key factors considered by the Company in developing the estimated cost in the cost plus margin approach for PCS includes reviewing the activities for PCS include reviewing the activities of specific employees engaged in support and software enhancements to determine the amount of time that is allocated to the development of the undelivered elements, determining the cost of this development effort, and then adding an appropriate level of gross profit to these costs.

Inventory and Inventory Valuation

The Company's inventories are primarily finished goods and, to a lesser extent, raw materials. Inventories are stated at the lower of actual cost, computed using the first-in, first-out method, or Net Realizable Value (NRV). NRV is based upon an estimated average selling price reduced by the estimated costs of disposal. The determination of NRV involves numerous judgments including estimating average selling prices based upon recent sales, industry trends, existing customer orders, and seasonal factors. Should actual market conditions differ from the Company's estimates, future results of operations could be materially affected. The Company reduces the value of its inventory for estimated obsolescence or lack of marketability by the difference between the cost of the affected inventory and the estimated market value. Write-downs are not reversed until the related inventory has been subsequently sold or scrapped.

The valuation of inventory also requires the Company to estimate excess and obsolete inventory. The determination of excess or obsolete inventory is estimated based on a comparison of the quantity and cost of inventory on hand to the Company's forecast of customer demand. Customer demand is dependent on various factors and requires the Company to use judgment in forecasting future demand for these products. The Company also considers the rate at which new products will be accepted in the marketplace and how quickly customers will transition from older products to newer products. If actual market conditions are less favorable than those projected by management, additional inventory write-downs may be required, which would have a negative impact on the Company's gross margin. If the Company ultimately sells inventory that has been previously written down, the Company's gross margins in future periods would be positively impacted.

The Company capitalizes manufacturing overhead expenditures as part of inventory costs. Capitalized costs primarily include management’s best estimate of the direct labor and materials costs incurred related to inventory acquired or produced but not sold during the respective period. Manufacturing overhead costs are capitalized to inventory and are recognized as cost of revenues in future periods based on the Company's rate of inventory turnover.

Income Taxes

We account for income taxes by recognizing deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in our financial statements or tax returns. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. We establish valuation allowances when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount we expect to realize. The assessment of whether or not a valuation allowance is required often requires significant judgment including current operating results, the forecast of future taxable income and ongoing prudent and feasible tax planning initiatives.

In addition, our calculation of our tax liabilities involves dealing with uncertainties in the application of complex tax laws. We may be subject to income tax audits in each of the jurisdictions in which we operate and, as a result, must also assess exposures to any potential issues arising from current or future audits of current and prior years’ tax returns. Accordingly, we must assess such potential exposures and, where necessary, provide a reserve to cover any expected loss. The Company recognizes tax benefits from uncertain tax positions only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such positions are then measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The calculation of tax liabilities involves significant judgment in estimating the impact of uncertainties in the application of GAAP and complex tax laws. Resolution of these uncertainties in a manner inconsistent with management’s expectations could have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition and operating results. We reflect changes in recognition or measurement in the period in which our change in judgment occurs.

The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits on the income tax expense line in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations. Accrued interest and penalties are included on the related tax liability line in the consolidated balance sheet.

On December 22, 2017, the U.S. government enacted a comprehensive tax legislation, commonly referred to as the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “2017 Tax Act”). The 2017 Tax Act reduced the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate to 21% from 35%, required companies to pay a one-time transition tax on earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries that were previously tax deferred and

created new taxes on certain foreign-sourced earnings. In fiscal year 2018 we recorded provisional amounts for certain enactment-date effects of the 2017 Tax Act by applying the guidance in Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 ("SAB 118"), because we had not yet completed our enactment-date accounting for these effects. In the second quarter of fiscal year 2019, we completed our enactment-date accounting for these effects. As a result during fiscal 2018 and 2019, the Company recorded tax expense related to the enactment-date effects of the 2017 Tax Act that included recording the one-time transition tax liability related to undistributed earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries that were not previously taxed, and adjusting deferred tax assets and liabilities to reflect the new corporate tax rate.

Revenues

Revenues increased $144.9 million, or 14%, from $1.0 billion in fiscal 2018 to $1.2 billion in fiscal 2019. During fiscal year ended June 30, 2019, there were no material price changes in the Company's products sold. However, the Company continues to introduce new products which have average selling price and margins different than our legacy products.

Revenues by Product Type

			Years Ended June 30,
			2019																		2018
			(in thousands, except percentages)
Service Provider Technology			$	428,490					37		%				$	446,600					44		%

Table of Contents

Enterprise Technology revenues increased $163.0 million, or 28.6%, from $570.3 million in fiscal 2018, to $733.2 million in fiscal 2019 primarily due to product expansion and further adoption of our UniFi technology platform across all regions.

Revenues by Geography

We have determined the geographical distribution of our product revenues based on our customers' ship-to destinations. A majority of our sales are to distributors who in turn sell to resellers or directly to end customers, which may be in different countries than the initial ship-to destination. The following are our revenues by geography for fiscal 2019 and fiscal 2018:

			Years Ended June 30,
			2019																		2018
			(in thousands, except percentages)
North America (1)			$	497,218					43		%				$	410,378					40		%

Total revenues			$	1,161,733					100		%				$	1,016,861					100		%

 (1) Revenue for the United States was $469.8 million and $390.6 million in fiscal 2019 and fiscal 2018, respectively.

North America

Revenues in North America increased $86.8 million, or 21.2%, from $410.4 million in fiscal 2018 to $497.2 million in fiscal 2019. The year-over-year increase was primarily due to increased revenue from Enterprise Technology products, partially offset by a decrease in Service Provider Technology products.

South America

Revenues in South America decreased $13.5 million, or 14.7%, from $92.3 million in fiscal 2018 to $78.7 million in fiscal 2019. The year-over-year decrease was primarily due to decreased revenue from our Service Provider Technology products, partially offset by increased revenue in our Enterprise Technology products.

Europe, the Middle East, and Africa ("EMEA")

Revenues in EMEA increased $65.9 million, or 16.0%, from $411.4 million in fiscal 2018 to $477.3 million in fiscal 2019. The year-over-year increase was due to increased revenue from both our Enterprise Technology products and Service Provider Technology products.

Asia Pacific

Revenues in the Asia Pacific region increased $5.6 million, or 5.5%, from $102.8 million in fiscal 2018 to $108.5 million in fiscal 2019. The year-over-year increase was primarily due to increased revenue from our Enterprise Technology products, partially offset by decreased revenue in our Service Provider Technology products.

Cost of Revenues and Gross Profit

Cost of revenues increased $50.8 million, or 8.9%, from $573.3 million in fiscal 2018 to $624.1 million in fiscal 2019. The increase in fiscal 2019 was primarily due to cost increase associated with an overall increase in revenue, higher indirect costs, higher tariffs partially offset by lower costs associated with obsolete inventory.

Gross profit margin increased to 46.0% in fiscal 2019 from 44.0% in fiscal 2018. The increase was primarily driven by favorable mix of products sold, lower inventory write-offs, partially offset by higher indirect costs and tariff related costs.

Operating Expenses

Research and Development

Research and development expenses increased $7.7 million, or 10.4%, from $74.3 million in fiscal 2018 to $82.1 million in fiscal 2019. As a percentage of revenues, research and development expenses remained relatively flat at 7.1% in fiscal 2019 and fiscal 2018.

The increase in R&D expense in absolute dollars was driven by higher employee related expenses and other development activities.

Sales, General and Administrative

Sales, general and administrative expenses increased $0.1 million, or 0.3%, from $43.1 million in fiscal 2018 to $43.2 million in fiscal 2019. As a percentage of revenues, sales, general and administrative expenses decreased from 4.2% in fiscal 2018 to 3.7% in fiscal 2019.

36

Table of Contents

Fiscal 2019 expenses were consistent with fiscal 2018 primarily due to higher employee related costs and web store operating costs offset, in part by lower professional fees, marketing expense and stock based compensation .

Litigation Settlement

On February 3, 2017, Synopsys, Inc. (“Synopsys”) filed a complaint against the Company, one of our subsidiaries and an employee in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, alleging claims under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. On January 17, 2019, the Company and Synopsys entered into a settlement pursuant to which the Company paid $18 million to Synopsys and agreed to a permanent injunction to prevent any unlicensed use of Synopsys’s software. As a result of the settlement, the litigation with Synopsys was dismissed. The settlement does not contain any admission of liability, wrongdoing, or responsibility by any of the parties.

Provision for Income Taxes

Our provision for income taxes decreased 50% from $117.9 million for fiscal 2018 to $58.8 million for fiscal 2019. Our effective tax rate decreased to 15.4% in fiscal 2019 as compared to 37.5% for fiscal 2018. The lower effective tax rate in fiscal 2019 is primarily related to the one time repatriation tax recognized in fiscal 2018 due to Tax Reform.

Prior to the changes in Tax Reform the company had experienced an effective tax rate between 9.6% and 11.0% for during 2015 to 2017. Fiscal 2018 increased to 37.5% due to the estimated one-time transition taxes. For fiscal 2019 we recorded final true up to the one-transition tax liability and recognized additional taxes due to Internal Revenue Service issuing final rules in June 2019, TD 9866 (the "Final GILTI Regulations"). As a result of the Final GILTI Regulations, the Company will have and continue to have a higher portion of its foreign subsidiaries profits being included in U.S. taxable income. The combined impact of these changes resulted in the Company effective tax rate increasing to 15.4%.

Comparison of Year Ended June 30, 2018 and 2017

Pursuant to Regulation S-K item 303, a detailed review of our fiscal 2018 performance compared to our fiscal 2017 performance is set forth in Part II, Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018 under the caption " Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" , filed with the SEC on August 24, 2018.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Sources and Uses of Cash

Our principal source of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents, cash generated by operations, the availability of additional funds under the Credit Facilities and short and long term investments. We had cash and cash equivalents of $238.1 million and $666.7 million at June 30, 2019 and 2018.

During the first quarter of fiscal year 2019, the Company began investing cash in various fixed income available-for-sale securities. As of June 30, 2019, we held $103.3 million in total investments of which $1.9 million is recorded in cash and cash equivalents. Our securities investment portfolio consists of high quality, investment grade securities from diverse issuers.

Consolidated Cash Flow Data

The following table sets forth the major components of our consolidated statements of cash flows data for the periods presented:

			Years Ended June 30,
			2019						2018
			(In thousands)
Net cash provided by operating activities			$	259,258					$	332,047
Net cash (used in) investing activities			(157,567)						(9,115)
Net cash (used in) financing activities			(530,225)						(260,449)
Net (decrease) increase in cash and cash equivalents			$	(428,534)					$	62,483

Cash Flows from Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities in fiscal 2019 consisted primarily of net income of $322.7 million, partially offset by the changes in operating assets and liabilities that resulted in net cash outflow of $78.3 million. This net change was primarily driven by outflows arising from $163.7 million increase in inventory, partially offset by $27.7 million decrease in vendor deposits, a $16.3 million increase in taxes payable due to the timing of federal tax payments and a $29.3 million increase in accounts payable and accrued liabilities.

Net cash provided by operating activities in fiscal 2018 consisted primarily of net income of $196.3 million, in addition to the changes in operating assets and liabilities that resulted in net cash inflows of $105.6 million. This net change was primarily driven by inflows arising from a $103.8 million increase in taxes payable primarily due to charges associated with the recent enactment of tax legislation, a $36.0 million decrease in inventory and $4.8 million decrease in vendor deposit, offset in part by $34.0 million

increase in accounts receivable due to overall higher revenues. Overall, cash inflows from operating activities were driven by our net income for the period, which included non-cash adjustments primarily due to stock-based compensation, depreciation and amortization, increases to our provision for inventory obsolescence, increases to our provision for loss on vendor deposits and purchase commitments, and decreases to our deferred taxes.

Cash Flows from Investing Activities

We used $157.6 million of cash in investing activities during fiscal 2019. Our investing activities consist of net purchases of available-for-sale securities of $100.9 million, $42.0 million of deposits on a long term asset, $9.7 million of capital expenditures and purchase of intangible assets, and a $5.0 million purchase of a private equity investment. Fiscal 2018 investing activities consisted of capital expenditures of $9.1 million.

Cash Flows from Financing Activities

We used $530.2 million of cash in financing activities during fiscal 2019. During fiscal 2019, we had financing cash outflow of $468.2 million related to the repurchase of our common stock, $71.4 million related to dividends paid on our common stock and $25.0 million repayment on our term loan under our credit facility. These outflows were partially offset with $35.0 million draws on our revolving facility.

We used $260.4 million of cash in financing activities during fiscal 2018. During fiscal 2018, we generated $230.3 million of net funds from borrowing and repayments under the Company's credit facilities throughout the year (including net borrowing and repayments under our Second Amended & Restated Credit Agreement), offset in part by financing cash outflows of $445.0 million related to the repurchase of our common stock and $40.6 million of cash outflows associated with tax withholding related to net share settlement of equity awards.

Liquidity

We believe our existing cash and cash equivalents, cash provided by operations and the availability of additional funds, under the Facilities and short and long term investments will be sufficient to meet our working capital, future stock repurchases, dividends, and capital expenditure needs for the next twelve months. However, this estimate is based on a number of assumptions that may prove to be wrong and we could exhaust our available cash and cash equivalents earlier than presently anticipated. Our future capital requirements may vary materially from those currently planned and will depend on many factors, including our rate of revenue growth, the timing and extent of spending to support development efforts, the timing of new product introductions, market acceptance of our products and overall economic conditions.

Contractual Obligations and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The following table summarizes our contractual obligations as of June 30, 2019:

						Payments Due by Period
						Year 1						1-3 Years						3-5 years						Over 5 years						Total

Total						$	79,234					$	157,764					$	411,537					$	57,762					$	706,297

Operating Leases

The Company leases all of its locations throughout the world under non-cancelable operating leases that expire at various dates through 2026.

Debt and Interest Payment Obligations

The amount of long term debt and interest payments in the preceding table represents the estimated debt and interest payment obligations under the Second Amended & Restated Credit Agreement. We have calculated estimated interest payments for our debt based on the applicable rates and payments dates. Although our interest rates on our debt obligations may vary, we have assumed the most recent available interest rates for all years presented. See Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.

Table of Contents

Purchase Obligations

We subcontract with third parties to manufacture our products. During the normal course of business, our contract manufacturers procure components and manufacture product based upon orders placed by us. If we cancel all or part of the orders, we may still be liable to the contract manufacturers for the cost of the components purchased by the subcontractors to manufacture our pr oducts. We periodically review the potential liability, and as of June 30, 2019, we have recorded purchase obligation liability of $4.9 million related to component purchase commitments. There have been no other significant liabilities for cancellations recorded as of June 30, 2019. Our consolidated financial position and results of operations could be negatively impacted if we were required to compensate the contract manufacturers for any unrecorded liabilities incurred. We may be subject to additional purchase obligations for components ordered by our contract manufacturers based on manufacturing forecasts we provide them each month. We estimate the amount of these additional purchase obligation to rang e from $151.9 million to $161.4 million as of June 30, 2019, depending upon the timing of orders placed for these components by our manufacturers.

Transition Tax

The Company also had obligations of $103.5 million as of June 30, 2019, related to Transition Tax. These obligations are included within Income tax payable and Long-term taxes payable on our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Other Obligations

We had other obligations of $10.1 million as of June 30, 2019, which consisted primarily of commitments related to research and development agreements.

As of June 30, 2019, the Company made $42.0 million deposit on a long-term asset, with an outstanding purchase commitment of $22.5 million.

Unrecognized Tax Benefits

As of June 30, 2019, we had $30.9 million and an additional $4.1 million for accrued interest, classified as non-current liabilities. At this time, we are unable to make a reasonably reliable estimate of the timing of payments in individual years in connection with these tax liabilities; therefore, such amounts are not included in the above contractual obligation table.

Warranties and Indemnifications

Our products are generally accompanied by a twelve-month warranty, from date of purchase, which covers both parts and labor. Generally, the distributor is responsible for the freight costs associated with warranty returns, and we absorb the freight costs of replacing items under warranty. The Company records an accrual when we believe it is reasonably estimable and probable based upon historical experience. We record a provision for estimated future warranty work in cost of goods sold upon recognition of revenues, and we review the resulting accrual regularly and periodically adjust it to reflect changes in warranty estimates.

We have entered and may in the future enter into standard indemnification agreements with certain distributors as well as other business partners in the ordinary course of business. These agreements may include provisions for indemnifying the distributor, OEM or other business partner against any claim brought by a third-party to the extent any such claim alleges that a Ubiquiti product infringes a patent, copyright or trademark or violates any other proprietary rights of that third-party. The maximum amount of potential future indemnification is unlimited. The maximum potential amount of future payments we could be required to make under these indemnification agreements is not estimable.

We have agreed to indemnify our directors, officers and certain other employees for certain events or occurrences, subject to certain limits, while such persons are or were serving at our request in such capacity. We may terminate the indemnification agreements with these persons upon the termination of their services with us, but termination will not affect claims for indemnification related to events occurring prior to the effective date of termination. The maximum amount of potential future indemnification is unlimited. We have a Directors and Officers insurance policy that limits our potential exposure for our indemnification obligations to our directors, officers and certain other employees. We believe the fair value of these indemnification agreements is minimal. We had not recorded any liabilities for these agreements as of June 30, 2019 or 2018.

Based upon our historical experience and information known as of the date of this report, we do not believe it is likely that we will have significant liability for the above indemnities as of June 30, 2019.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of June 30, 2019 and 2018, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements other than those mentioned above.

Table of Contents

Interest Rate Sensitivity

We had cash and cash equivalents of $238.1 million and $666.7 million as of June 30, 2019 and 2018. Cash and cash equivalents includes securities that have a maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase. These amounts were held primarily in cash deposit accounts in U.S. dollars. The fair value of our cash and cash equivalents would not be significantly affected by either a 10% increase or decrease in interest rates due mainly to the short-term nature of these instruments.

Debt

We are exposed to interest rates risks primarily through borrowing under our credit facility. Interest on our borrowings is based on variable rates. Based on a sensitivity analysis, as of June 30, 2019, an instantaneous and sustained 200-basis-point increase in interest rates affecting our floating rate debt obligations, and assuming that we take no counteractive measures, would result in an incremental charge to our income before income taxes of approximately $10.0 million over the next twelve months.

Investments

Our investments are primarily invested in money market funds, corporate bonds, U.S. agency bonds and commercial papers and we do not enter into investments for trading or speculative purposes. The principal objectives of our investment activities are to preserve principal, provide liquidity and maximize income consistent with minimizing risk of material loss. We are exposed to market risk related to changes in interest rates where a decline in interest rates would reduce our interest income and conversely, an increase in interest rates would have an adverse impact on the fair value of our investment portfolio. The effect of a hypothetical 100 basis points increase or decrease in overall interest rate would not materially change the total fair value of the portfolio due to the conservative and short-term nature of these investments.

As of June 30, 2019 , the Company held $103.3 million in total investments, which consists of various fixed income available-for-sale securities.

Foreign Currency Risk

The vast majority of our sales are denominated in U.S. dollars, and therefore, our revenues are not directly subject to foreign currency risk. Certain of our operating expenses are denominated in the currencies of the countries in which our operations are located, and may be subject to fluctuations due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates, particularly changes in the Chinese Yuan, Euro, and Taiwan Dollar. A 10% appreciation or depreciation in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to the other currencies in which our expenses are denominated would result in a charge or benefit to our income before income taxes of approximately $5.6 million.

Management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Accounting and Finance Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2019. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives. Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2019, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Accounting and Finance Officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f). A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Accounting and Finance Officer, and effected by such company's board of directors, management and other personnel to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial

reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:

(i)			pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company;
(ii)			provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and
(iii)			provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of a company's annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Accounting and Finance Officer, has conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2019, based on the framework set forth in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on this assessment, management has concluded that the Company maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2019.

The effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2019 has been audited by KPMG LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report which appears herein.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2019, that materially affected, or that are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Stockholders and Board of Directors of Ubiquiti Inc.:

Opinions on the Consolidated Financial Statements and Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Ubiquiti Inc. and subsidiaries (the Company) as of June 30, 2019 and 2018, the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended June 30, 2019 and the related notes (collectively, the consolidated financial statements). We also have audited the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2019, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2019 and 2018, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended June 30, 2019, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2019 based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

Basis for Opinions

The Company’s management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting under Item 9A. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud, and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.

Our audits of the consolidated financial statements included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

Definition and Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Critical Audit Matter

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgment. The communication of a critical audit matter does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial

statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

Assessment of gross unrecognized tax benefits

As discussed in Notes 2 and 13 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company records a liability for unrecognized tax benefits associated with uncertain tax positions. The Company recognizes tax benefits from uncertain tax positions only if there is more than a 50% likelihood that the tax position will be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. As of June 30, 2019, the Company has recorded a liability for gross unrecognized tax benefits, excluding associated interest and penalties, of $30.9 million.

We identified the assessment of gross unrecognized tax benefits as a critical audit matter. Complex auditor judgment, including the involvement of tax professionals with specialized skills and knowledge, was required to evaluate the Company’s interpretation and application of tax law in the United States and certain foreign jurisdictions in which it operates. This evaluation included the determination of which tax positions have more than a 50% likelihood of being sustained upon examination.

The primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter included the following. We tested certain internal controls over the Company’s gross unrecognized tax benefit process to:

– evaluate the Company’s tax structure and interpret United States and foreign tax laws and their inter-relationship,

– identify tax law changes in jurisdictions that may impact the Company’s unrecognized tax benefits, and

– evaluate and estimate the gross unrecognized tax benefits associated with uncertain tax positions.

In addition, we involved tax professionals with specialized skills and knowledge, who assisted in performing the following procedures over certain jurisdictions:

– obtaining an understanding of the Company’s overall tax structure and assessing the Company’s compliance with tax laws,

– evaluating changes in the Company’s tax structure that occurred during the year as well as changes in tax law, and assessing the interpretation of those changes under the relevant jurisdiction’s tax law,

– examining and assessing transfer pricing studies for compliance with applicable regulations,

– inspecting correspondence, assessments, and settlements from taxing authorities to assess the Company’s determination of its tax positions having more than a 50% likelihood to be sustained upon examination, and

– performing an independent analysis of the Company’s uncertain tax positions and comparing our determination of its tax positions having more than a 50% likelihood to be sustained upon examination to the Company’s assessment.

We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2016.

UBIQUITI INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1—BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Business — Ubiquiti Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively, “Ubiquiti” or the “Company”) develop high performance networking technology for service providers, enterprises and consumers globally.

The Company operates on a fiscal year ending June 30. In these notes, Ubiquiti refers to the fiscal years ended June 30, 2019, 2018 and 2017 as fiscal 2019, fiscal 2018 and fiscal 2017, respectively.

Basis of Presentation — The Company's consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principle ("GAAP") and include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

The Company has wholly owned subsidiaries in Canada, Cayman Islands, Hong Kong, China, Czech Republic, India, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Japan, Mexico, Brazil, Russia, Netherlands and Ukraine. The Company's Hong Kong subsidiary also operates a branch office in Taiwan.

NOTE 2—SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Use of Accounting Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates these estimates, including those related to allowance for doubtful accounts, inventory valuation, vendor deposits, warranty costs, stock-based compensation and income taxes, among others. The Company bases estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates.

Segments

Management has determined that it operates as one reportable and operating segment as the Company's Chief Executive Officer, who is the Company's chief operating decision maker, does not make decisions about resources to be allocated or assess performance on a segment basis. Further information regarding Segments can be found in Note 14, to the consolidated financial statements.

Recognition of Revenues

Revenue consists of revenue from sales of hardware and the related essential software ("Products") as well as related implied PCS. We recognize revenue when obligations under the terms of a contract with our customers are satisfied, generally, upon transfer of control of promised goods or services to customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to receive in exchange for those goods or services. We apply the following five-step revenue recognition model:

• Identification of the contract, or contracts with a custome r

• Identification of the performance obligations in the contract

• Determination of the transaction price

• Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract

• Recognition of revenue when, or as, we satisfy the performance obligation

Transfer of control to the customer for products generally occurs at the point in time when products have been picked up at our logistic centers by our distribution partners or in the case of web based sales when the customer has received the products as this represents the point in time when the customer has a present obligation to pay and physical possession including title and risk of loss have been transferred to the customer. Revenue for PCS is deferred and recognized ratably over time over the estimated period for which implied PCS services will be delivered.

PCS, is the right to receive on a when-and-if available basis, future unspecified software upgrades and features relating to the product's essential software as well as technical support and bug fixes.

The Company accounts for a contract with a customer when there is an approval and commitment from both parties, the rights of the parties are identified, payment terms are identified, the contract has commercial substance and collectability of the consideration is

54

probable. The Company's distinct performance obligations consist mainly of transferring control of its products identified in the contracts, purchase orders or invoices and implied PCS services.

Our contracts with majority of our distribution customers do not include provisions for cancellations, returns, inventory swaps, or refunds that materially impact recognized revenue. Internet or Web based sales include regulatory provisions which allow customers to return the goods, generally within 30 days. The Web based sales have not been material to the Company results and potential refund would not materially impact recognized revenue.

We record amounts billed to distributors for shipping and handling costs as revenues. We classify shipping and handling costs incurred by us as cost of revenue. Deposits payments received from distributors in advance of recognition of revenues are included in current liabilities of our balance sheet and are recognized as revenues when all the criteria for recognition of revenues are met.

Transaction price and allocation to performance obligations

Transaction prices are typically based on contracted rates. Although payment terms vary, payment is generally due from customers within 60 days of the invoice date and the contracts do not have significant financing components or include extended payment terms. The Company is directly responsible for fulfilling its performance obligations in contracts with customers and does not rely on another party to fulfill its promise. We use observable list prices to determine the stand-alone selling price of our performance obligation related to our products, and we utilize a cost plus margin approach to estimate the stand-alone selling price of our implied PCS obligation. When our contracts contain multiple performance obligation, we allocate the transaction price based on the estimated standalone selling price s of the promised products or services underlying each performance obligation.

The expected costs associated with our base warranties continue to be recognized as an expense when the products are sold and is not considered a separate performance obligation.

Costs for research and development and sales and marketing are expensed as incurred. If the estimated life of the

hardware product should change, the future rate of amortization of the revenues allocated to PCS could also change.

Key factors considered by the Company in developing the estimated cost in the cost plus margin approach for PCS includes reviewing the activities for PCS include reviewing the activities of specific employees engaged in support and software enhancements to determine the amount of time that is allocated to the development of the undelivered elements, determining the cost of this development effort, and then adding an appropriate level of gross profit to these costs. As of June 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company had deferred revenues of $21.7 million and $12.7 million, respectively, related to PCS obligations.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers investments purchased with a maturity period of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents are stated at cost which approximates fair value. The Company deposits cash and cash equivalents with financial institutions that management believes are of high credit quality. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of cash deposited in U.S. dollar denominated interest-bearing deposit accounts and money market funds.

Concentration of Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities and accounts receivable. The Company limits its exposure by primarily placing its cash in interest-bearing deposit accounts and marketable securities with high credit quality financial institutions.

The Company derives its accounts receivable from revenues earned from customers located worldwide. The Company bases credit decisions primarily upon a customer’s past credit history. If upfront deposits or prepayments are not required, customers then may be granted standard credit terms, which range from net 30 to 120 days.

The Company subcontracts with third parties to manufacture most of our products. The Company relies on the ability of these contract manufacturers to produce the products sold to its distributors. A significant portion of the Company’s products are manufactured by a few contract manufacturers.

Inventory and Inventory Valuation

The Company's inventories are primarily finished goods and, to a lesser extent, raw materials, which have been either consigned to the Company's contract manufacturers or are held by the Company. Inventories are stated at the lower of actual cost, computed using the first-in, first-out method, and Net Realizable Value (NRV). NRV is based upon an estimated average selling price reduced by the estimated costs of disposal. The determination of net realizable value involves numerous judgments including estimating average selling prices based up recent sales, industry trends, existing customer orders, and seasonal factors. Should actual market conditions differ from the Company's estimates, future results of operations could be materially affected. The Company reduces the value of its inventory for estimated obsolescence or lack of marketability by the difference between the cost of the affected

55

Table of Contents

inventory and the estimated market value. Write-downs are not reversed until the related inventory has been subsequently sold or scrapped.

The valuation of inventory also requires the Company to estimate excess and obsolete inventory. The determination of excess or obsolete inventory is estimated based on a comparison of the quantity and cost of inventory on hand to the Company's forecast of customer demand. Customer demand is dependent on various factors and requires the Company to use judgment in forecasting future demand for these products. The Company also considers the rate at which new products will be accepted in the marketplace and how quickly customers will transition from older products to newer products. If actual market conditions are less favorable than those projected by management, additional inventory write-downs may be required, which would have a negative impact on the Company's gross margin. If the Company ultimately sells inventory that has been previously written down, the Company's gross margins in future periods would be positively impacted.

The Company capitalizes manufacturing overhead expenditures as part of inventory costs. Capitalized costs primarily include management’s best estimate of the direct labor and material costs incurred related to inventory acquired or produced but not sold during the respective period. Manufacturing overhead costs are capitalized to inventory and are recognized as cost of revenues in the future periods based on the Company's rate of inventory turnover.

Product Warranties

The Company offers warranties on certain products, generally for a period of one year, and records a liability for the estimated future costs associated with potential warranty claims. The warranty costs are reflected in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income within cost of revenues. The warranties are typically in effect for 12 months from the distributor’s purchase date of the product. The Company assesses the adequacy of its accrued warranty liabilities and adjusts the amounts as necessary based on historical experience factors and changes in future estimates. Historical factors include product failure rates, material usage and service delivery costs incurred in correcting product failures. In certain circumstances, the Company may have recourse from its contract manufacturers for replacement cost of defective products, which it also factors into its warranty liability assessment.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The Company records its allowance for doubtful accounts based on its assessment of various factors, including historical experience, age of the accounts receivable balances, credit quality of the Company's customers, current economic conditions and other factors that may affect the customers' abilities to pay.

In cases where the Company is aware of circumstances that may impair a specific customer’s ability to meet its obligations to the Company, the Company records a specific allowance against amounts due from the customer, and thereby reduces the net recognized receivable to the amounts it reasonably believes will be collected.

The allowance for doubtful accounts activity was as follows (in thousands):

 

						Years Ended June 30,
						2019						2018						2017
Beginning balance						$	453					$	440					$	48
Charged to (released from) expenses						(250)						13						392
Bad debt write-offs						—						—						—
Ending balance						$	203					$	453					$	440

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Pursuant to the accounting guidance for fair value measurements and its subsequent updates, fair value is defined as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. The accounting guidance establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy that requires the Company to use observable market data, when available, and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs when determining fair value. A financial instrument's classification within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Three levels of inputs may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 —Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2 —Inputs other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly;

Level 3 —Unobservable inputs based on the Company's own assumption.

The Company records securities available-for-sale at fair value on a recurring basis. We classify our investments within Level 1 or 2 because they are valued using either quoted market prices or inputs other than quoted prices which are directly or indirectly

56

Table of Contents

observable in the market, including readily-available pricing sources for the identical underlying security which may not be actively traded.

Our fixed income available-for-sale securities consist of high quality, investment grade securities from diverse issuers. The valuation techniques used to measure the fair value of our marketable securities incorporate bond terms and conditions, current performance data, proprietary pricing models, real time quotes from contributing dealers, trade prices and other market data.

Long Lived Assets

In accordance with the authoritative guidance for impairment or disposal of long-lived assets (ASC 360), we assess potential impairments to our long-lived assets, including property and equipment, when there is evidence that events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. We recognize an impairment loss when the undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by an asset or group of assets, are less than the asset’s carrying value. Any required impairment loss would be measured as the amount by which the asset’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, and would be recorded as a reduction in the carrying value of the related asset and charged to results of operations. The Company did not recognize any material impairment losses for fiscal years 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Property and Equipment

Furniture, fixtures and equipment are recorded at cost. The Company capitalizes eligible costs to acquire or develop internal-use software, which is included as property and equipment on the Company's consolidated balance sheets. Capitalized costs primarily include payroll and payroll-related costs and facilities costs.

The Company computes depreciation or amortization using the straight line method over estimated useful lives, as follows:

						Estimated Useful Life
Testing equipment						3 to 5 years
Computer and other equipment						3 to 5 years
Furniture and fixtures						3 to 5 years
Software						up to 3 years
Leasehold improvements						shorter of lease term or useful life

Upon retirement or disposition, the asset cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed with any gain or loss recognized in the statement of operations. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred.

Intangible Assets

The Company’s intangible assets consist primarily of legal costs associated with application for and registration of the Company’s trademarks and are included in other long term assets. The Company amortizes all definite-lived intangible assets that are subject to amortization over the estimated useful life based on economic benefit, which is generally 5 years. All patent filing and defense costs are expensed as incurred, however, to date these costs have not been significant.

Leases

The Company leases its facilities under cancelable and noncancelable operating leases. For leases that contain rent escalation or rent concessions provisions, the Company records the total rent expense during the lease term on a straight line basis over the term of the lease. The Company records the difference between the rent paid and the straight line rent as a deferred rent liability on the consolidated balance sheets.

Advertising Costs

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and are included in selling, general and administrative expenses.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with accounting guidance (ASC 740) which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in its financial statements or tax returns. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the temporary difference between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The Company establishes valuation allowances when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount it expects to realize. The assessment of whether or not a valuation allowance is required often requires significant judgment including current

57

Table of Contents

operating results, the forecast of future taxable income and ongoing prudent and feasible tax planning initiatives. In addition, the Company’s calculation of its tax liabilities involves dealing with uncertainties in the application of complex tax regulations. The Company may be subject to income tax audits in all of the jurisdictions in which it operates and, as a result, must also assess exposures to any potential issues arising from current or future audits of current and prior years’ tax returns. Accordingly, the Company must assess such potential exposures and, where necessary, provide a reserve to cover any expected loss. The Company recognizes tax benefits from uncertain tax positions only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such positions are then measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The calculation of tax liabilities involves significant judgment in estimating the impact of uncertainties in the application of GAAP and complex tax laws. Resolution of these uncertainties in a manner inconsistent with management’s expectations could have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition and operating results. We reflect changes in recognition or measurement in the period in which our change in judgment occurs. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits on the income tax expense line in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations. Accrued interest and penalties are included on the related tax liability line in the consolidated balance sheet.

Stock-based Compensation

The Company measures stock-based compensation cost at the grant date, based on the estimated fair value of the award, and recognizes expense for restricted stock units and stock options on a straight-line basis over the employee’s requisite service period. The Company did not grant any stock options during fiscal 2019, fiscal 2018, or fiscal 2017. Restricted stock units are valued based on the fair value of the Company's common stock on the date of grant. Since the Company's initial public offering on October 14, 2011, the fair value of our common stock is determined using the closing market price of the Company's common stock as of the date of grant.

Commitments and Contingencies

The Company periodically evaluates all pending or threatened contingencies and any commitments, if any, that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on its results of operations, financial position or cash flows. The Company assesses the probability of an adverse outcome and determines if it is remote, reasonably possible or probable. If information available prior to the issuance of the Company’s financial statements indicates that it is probable that an asset had been impaired or a liability had been incurred at the date of the Company’s financial statements, and the amount of the loss, or the range of probable loss can be reasonably estimated, then such loss is accrued and charged to operating expenses. If no accrual is made for a loss contingency because one or both of the conditions pursuant to the accounting guidance are not met, but the probability of an adverse outcome is at least reasonably possible, the Company discloses the nature of the contingency and provides an estimate of the possible loss or range of loss, or states that such an estimate cannot be made.

Foreign Currency Remeasurement

The functional currency of the Company and its subsidiaries is the U.S. dollar. For foreign operations, local currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities are remeasured at the period end exchange rates, and revenues, costs and expenses are remeasured at the average exchange rates during the fiscal year. Foreign exchange gains and losses have been immaterial to the Company’s results of operations to date.

Research and Development Costs

Research and development expenses are expensed as incurred and consist primarily of payroll and payroll-related costs and facilities costs. Research and development expenses associated with software development are typically expensed as incurred as our software is usually released to end customers immediately after technological feasibility has been established. However, the Company capitalizes development costs when material costs are incurred subsequent to technological feasibility but prior to commercial release.

Earnings Per Share

The Company applies the treasury stock method for calculating and presenting earnings per share (“EPS”). Basic EPS is computed by dividing the net income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS available to common stockholders is computed by dividing the amount of net income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding, including potential dilutive common shares assuming the dilutive effect of outstanding stock options and restricted stock units using the treasury stock method.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which has been codified as Accounting Standards Codification 606 (“ASC 606”). ASC 606 requires the Company’s revenue recognition to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which it expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASC 606 outlines a five-step model to make the revenue recognition determination and requires enhanced financial statement disclosures. We adopted the updated guidance in the first quarter of fiscal 2019 using the modified retrospective method, which did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. Additional information and disclosures required by this new standard are contained in Note 3 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Effective

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842),” (“ASU 2016-02”), which establishes a new lease accounting model for lessees. The updated guidance requires an entity to recognize assets and liabilities arising from financing and operating leases, along with additional qualitative and quantitative disclosures. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842) Targeted Improvements, which provides for an optional transition method that allows for the application of current legacy guidance, including its disclosure requirements, in the comparative periods presented in the year of adoption. Otherwise, Topic 842 must be adopted by a modified retrospective method, with elective reliefs, which requires application of the new guidance for all periods presented. The Company plans to use the optional transition method when adopting the new standard. The amendments have the same effective date and transition requirements as the new lease standard. We will adopt this standard on July 1, 2019, the beginning of our fiscal year 2020. As the Company is finalizing the adoption process of the new standard, including identifying, evaluating and quantifying the impact on its consolidated financial statements, we currently anticipate the adoption of these ASUs will result in an increase in the assets and liabilities of our consolidated balance sheets related to our operating leases disclosed in Note 9 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, in the range of $15 million to $25 million. However, we do not believe the adoption will have a material effect on our results of operations or statement of cash flow.

NOTE 3—REVENUES

On July 1, 2018, we adopted the new accounting standard ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers and all the related amendments (“new revenue standard”) to all contracts not completed as of the date of adoption using the modified retrospective method. As a result of our adoption of this standard, there was no adjustment recorded to the opening balance of retained earnings as there was no cumulative effect of adoption of the new revenue standard. As we elected the modified retrospective method of adoption, comparative information from prior periods has not been restated and continues to be reported under the ASC 605, “Revenue Recognition”. Accordingly, the adoption of the new revenue standard did not have a material impact to our results of operations and comprehensive income or financial position, equity or cash flows as of the adoption date or for the fiscal year end June 30, 2019.

The Company has made the following accounting policy elections and elected to use certain practical expedients, as permitted by the FASB, in applying Topic 606: (1) the Company accounts for amounts collected from customers for sales and other taxes, net of related amounts remitted to tax authorities; (2) the Company does not adjust the promised amount of consideration for the effects of a significant financing component because, at contract inception, the Company expects the period between the time when the Company transfers a promised good or service to the customer and the time when the customer pays for that good or service will be one year or less; (3) the Company expenses costs to obtain a contract as they are incurred if the expected period of benefit, and therefore the amortization period, is one year or less; (4) the Company accounts for shipping and handling activities that occur after control transfers to the customer as a fulfillment cost rather than an additional promised service and these fulfillment costs fall within cost of revenue; and (5) the Company does not disclose the transaction price allocated to unsatisfied performance obligations when the original expected contract duration is one year or less.

Revenue is primarily generated from the sale of hardware and management tools (products), as well as the related implied post contract services (“PCS”). The Company determines revenue recognition through the five step model under ASC 606 which includes i) identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer, ii) identification of the performance obligation in the contract, iii) determination of the transaction price, iv) allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligation within the contract, v) recognition of revenue when, or as, a performance obligation is satisfied.

Contracts and Performance Obligations

The Company accounts for a contract with a customer when there is an approval and commitment from both parties, the rights of the parties are identified, payment terms are identified, the contract has commercial substance and collectability of the consideration is probable. The Company's distinct performance obligations consist mainly of transferring control of its products identified in the contracts, purchase orders or invoices and implied PCS services.

59

Table of Contents

Transaction price and allocation to performance obligations

Transaction prices are typically based on contracted rates. Although payment terms vary, payment is generally due from customers within 60 days of the invoice date and the contracts do not have significant financing components or include extended payment terms. The Company is directly responsible for fulfilling its performance obligations in contracts with customers and does not rely on another party to fulfill its promise. We use observable list prices to determine the stand-alone selling price of our performance obligation related to our products, and we utilize a cost plus margin approach to estimate the stand-alone selling price of our implied PCS obligation. When our contracts contain multiple performance obligation, we allocate the transaction price based on the estimated standalone selling prices of the promised products or services underlying each performance obligation.

The expected costs associated with our base warranties continue to be recognized as an expense when the products are sold and is not considered a separate performance obligation.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration we expect to receive in exchange for transferring goods or providing services. Revenue is recognized when obligations under the terms of a contract with our customers are satisfied; generally, this occurs with the transfer of control of our products and PCS to our customers. Transfer of control to the customer for products generally occurs at the point in time when products have been picked up buy our distribution partners at our distributions centers or in the case of web based sales when third party carriers have delivered the products to our customers as this represents the point in time when the customer has a present obligation to pay and physical possession including title and risk of loss have been transferred to the customer. Revenue for PCS is deferred and recognized ratably over time over the estimated period for which implied PCS services will be delivered.

Disaggregation of Revenue

See Note 14 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements “Segment Information” for disaggregation of revenue by product category and geography.

Contract Balances

The timing of revenue recognition, billing and cash collections results in billed accounts receivable, deferred revenue primarily attributable to PCS and customer deposits on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Accounts receivable are recognized in the period the Company’s right to the consideration is unconditional. Our contract liabilities consist of advance payments (Customer deposits) as well as billing in excess of revenue recognized primarily related to deferred revenue. We classify customer deposits as a current liability, and deferred revenue as a current or non-current liability based on the timing of when we expect to fulfill these remaining performance obligations. The current portion of deferred revenue is included in other current liabilities and the non-current portion is included in other long-term liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets.

As of June 30, 2019, the Company’s customer deposits were $3.0 million. As of June 30, 2019, the Company’s deferred revenue, included in other current liabilities and other long-term liabilities, was $15.3 million and $6.5 million, respectively.

Variable Consideration

The Company does provide for rights of return to certain customers on product sales and therefore records a provision for returns related to this variable consideration based upon its historical returns experience with these customers. The Company also provides certain customers with discounts that are recorded as a reduction of revenue in the period the related product revenue is recognized and are reflected as a reduction of outstanding accounts receivable. The Company’s contracts with customers generally do not contain other forms of variable consideration, however when additional variable consideration is included, the Company estimates the amount of variable consideration and determines what portion of that, if any, has a high probability of significant subsequent revenue reversal, and if so, that amount is excluded from the transaction price.

These reflect the Company’s best estimates of the amount of consideration to which it is entitled based on the terms of the contract. Actual amounts of consideration ultimately received may differ from the Company’s estimates. If actual results in the future vary from the Company’s estimates, the Company adjusts these estimates, which would affect net product revenue and earnings in the period such variances become known.

NOTE 4—FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The following tables summarize the Company's financial instruments' adjusted cost, gross unrealized gains and losses, and fair value by significant investment category as of June 30, 2019 (in thousands):

We elected to use the measurement alternative, defined as cost, less impairments, as adjusted up or down based on observable price changes in orderly transactions for identical or similar investments of the same issuer. Adjustments resulting from impairments and/or observable price changes are to be recorded as other income (expense) on a prospective basis. The carrying amount of our equity investments and any related gain or loss may fluctuate in the future as a result of the re-measurement of such equity investments upon the occurrence of observable price changes and/or impairments.

(3) The Company made a total of $20.0 million of deposits with the Hong Kong Inland Revenue Department in connection with extending the statute of limitation for income tax examinations currently under audit for 2010-2012 tax years.

NOTE 8—DEBT

On January 17, 2018, the Company, Ubiquiti International Holding Company Limited (the "Cayman Borrower") and certain subsidiaries entered into an amended and restated credit agreement (the "Second Amended & Restated Credit Agreement") with Wells Fargo, other financial institutions named as lenders therein, and Wells Fargo as administrative agent for the lenders, that provides for a $400 million senior secured revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Facility") and a $500 million senior secured term loan facility (the "Term Facility", together with the Revolving Facility, the "Facilities"), with an option to request increases in the amounts of such credit facilities by up to an additional $300 million in the aggregate (any such increase to be in each lender's sole discretion). The maturity date of the Facilities is January 17, 2023.

The Term Facility was fully drawn at the closing of the Second Amended & Restated Credit Agreement, of which $354.5 million and $68.9 million was used to repay the prior revolver facility and term facility, respectively, under the Amended Credit Agreement. The Company incurred $4.6 million of debt issuance costs which are capitalized and amortized as interest expense over the life of the facilities.

On March 15, 2019, the Company, the Cayman Borrower and certain subsidiaries entered into the Second Amendment to the Second Amended & Restated Credit Agreement (the "Second Amendment"). The Second Amendment modified certain definitions and certain covenants relating to indebtedness and investments.

Our Debt consisted of the following (in thousands):

			June 30,
			2019						2018
Term Loan - short term			$	31,250					$	25,000
Debt issuance costs, net			(575)						(575)
Total Debt - short term			30,675						24,425
Term Loan - long term			431,250						462,500
Revolver - long term			35,000						—
Debt issuance costs, net			(1,550)						(2,148)
Total Debt - long term			$	464,700					$	460,352

The Revolving Facility includes a sub-limit of $10.0 million for letters of credit and a sub-limit of $25.0 million for swingline loans. The Facilities are available for working capital and general corporate purposes that comply with the terms of the Second Amended & Restated Credit Agreement, including to finance the repurchase of the Company's common stock or to pay dividends to the holders of the Company's common stock. Under the Second Amended & Restated Credit Agreement, revolving loans and swingline loans may be borrowed, repaid and reborrowed until January 17, 2023, at which time all amounts borrowed must be repaid. The term loan is payable in quarterly installments of 1.25% of the original principal amount of the term loan until December 31, 2019, thereafter increasing to 1.875% until December 31, 2020, and thereafter increasing to 2.50% of the original principal amount of the term loan. Revolving, swingline and term loans may be prepaid at any time without penalty.

Revolving and term loans bear interest, at the Company’s option, at either (i) a floating rate per annum equal to the base rate plus a margin of between 0.50% and 1.25%, depending on the Company’s consolidated total leverage ratio as of the most recently ended fiscal quarter or (ii) a floating per annum rate equal to the applicable LIBOR rate (or replacement rate) for a specified period, plus a margin of between 1.50% and 2.25%, depending on the Company’s consolidated total leverage ratio as of the most recently ended fiscal quarter. Swingline loans bear interest at a floating rate per annum equal to the base rate plus a margin of between 0.50% and 1.25%, depending on the Company’s consolidated total leverage ratio as of the most recently ended fiscal quarter. Base rate is defined as the greatest of (A) Wells Fargo's prime rate, (B) the federal funds rate plus 0.50% or (C) the applicable LIBOR rate (or replacement rate) for a period of one month plus 1.00%. A default interest rate shall apply on all obligations during certain events of default under the Second Amended & Restated Credit Agreement at a rate per annum equal to 2.00% above the applicable interest rate. The Company will pay to each lender a facility fee on a quarterly basis based on the unused amount of each lender's commitment to make revolving loans, of between 0.20% and 0.35%, depending on the Company's consolidated total leverage ratio

as of the most recently ended fiscal quarter. The Company will also pay to the applicable lenders on a quarterly basis certain fees based on the daily amount available to be drawn under each outstanding letter of credit, including aggregate letter of credit commissions of between 1.50% and 2.25%, depending on the Company's consolidated total leverage ratio as of the most recently ended fiscal quarter, and issuance fees of 0.125% per annum. The Company is also obligated to pay Wells Fargo, as agent, fees customary for a credit facility of this size and type.

The Second Amended & Restated Credit Agreement requires the Company to maintain during the term of the Facilities (i) a maximum consolidated total leverage ratio of 3.25 to 1.00 and (ii) minimum liquidity of $250.0 million, which can be satisfied with unrestricted cash and cash equivalents and up to $50.0 million of availability under the Revolving Facility. In addition, the Second Amended & Restated Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants, including covenants that limit or restrict the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to, among other things, grant liens or enter into agreements restricting their ability to grant liens on property, enter into mergers, dispose of assets, change their accounting or reporting policies, change their business and incur indebtedness, in each case subject to customary exceptions for a credit facility of this size and type. The Second Amended & Restated Credit Agreement includes customary events of default that include, among other things, non-payment of principal, interest or fees, inaccuracy of representations and warranties, violation of covenants, cross default to certain other indebtedness, bankruptcy and insolvency events, material judgments, change of control and certain ERISA events. The occurrence of an event of default could result in the acceleration of the obligations under the Second Amended & Restated Credit Agreement. The obligations of Ubiquiti Inc. and certain domestic subsidiaries, if any, under the Second Amended & Restated Credit Agreement are required to be guaranteed by such domestic subsidiaries (the "Domestic Guarantors") and are collateralized by substantially all assets (excluding intellectual property) of Ubiquiti Inc. and the Domestic Guarantors. The obligations of the Cayman Borrower and certain foreign subsidiaries under the Second Amended & Restated Credit Agreement are required to be guaranteed by certain domestic and material foreign subsidiaries (the "Guarantors") and are collateralized by substantially all assets (excluding intellectual property) of Ubiquiti Inc. and the Guarantors.

Second Amended & Restated Credit Agreement

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019, the Company drew $35.0 million against the Revolving Facility. As of June 30, 2019, $462.5 million was outstanding on the Term Facility and $35.0 million on the Revolving Facility, leaving $365.0 million available on the Revolving Facility.

Under the Second Amended & Restated Credit Agreement, during the fiscal 2019, the Company made aggregate payments of $48.2 million against the balance under the Term Facility, of which $25.0 million was repayment of principal and $23.2 million was payment of interest. During fiscal 2019, the Company made no aggregate payments against the Revolving Facility, however, made $0.1 million payment of interest.

As of June 30, 2019, the interest rate on both the Facilities was 4.15%. As of July 31, 2019, the most currently available reset date, the Facilities have an interest rate of 3.98%.

Table of Contents

Purchase Obligations

We subcontract with third parties to manufacture our products. During the normal course of business, our contract manufacturers procure components and manufacture product based upon orders placed by us. If we cancel all or part of the orders, we may still be liable to the contract manufacturers for the cost of the components purchased by the subcontractors to manufacture our pr oducts. We periodically review the potential liability, and as of June 30, 2019, we have recorded purchase obligation liability of $4.9 million related to component purchase commitments. There have been no other significant liabilities for cancellations recorded as of June 30, 2019. Our consolidated financial position and results of operations could be negatively impacted if we were required to compensate the contract manufacturers for any unrecorded liabilities incurred. We may be subject to additional purchase obligations for components ordered by our contract manufacturers based on manufacturing forecasts we provide them each month. We estimate the amount of these additional purchase obligation to rang e from $151.9 million to $161.4 million as of June 30, 2019, depending upon the timing of orders placed for these components by our manufacturers.

Other Obligations

We had other obligations of $10.1 million as of June 30, 2019, which consisted primarily of commitments related to research and development agreements.

As of June 30, 2019, the Company made $42.0 million deposit on a long term asset, with an outstanding purchase commitment balance of $22.5 million.

Indemnification Obligations

The Company enters into standard indemnification agreements with many of its business partners in the ordinary course of business. These agreements include provisions for indemnifying the business partner against any claim brought by a third party to the extent any such claim alleges that a Company product infringes a patent, copyright or trademark, or violates any other proprietary rights of that third party. The maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under these indemnification agreements is not estimable and the Company has not incurred any material costs to defend lawsuits or settle claims related to these indemnification agreements to date.

Legal Matters

The Company may be involved, from time to time, in a variety of claims, lawsuits, investigations, and proceedings relating to contractual disputes, intellectual property rights, employment matters, regulatory compliance matters and other litigation matters relating to various claims that arise in the normal course of business. The Company determines whether an estimated loss from a contingency should be accrued by assessing whether a loss is deemed probable and can be reasonably estimated. The Company assesses its potential liability by analyzing specific litigation and regulatory matters using available information. The Company develops its views on estimated losses in consultation with inside and outside counsel, which involves a subjective analysis of potential results and outcomes, assuming various combinations of appropriate litigation and settlement strategies. Taking all of the above factors into account, the Company records an amount where it is probable that the Company will incur a loss and where that loss can be reasonably estimated. However, the Company’s estimates may be incorrect and the Company could ultimately incur more or less than the amounts initially recorded. The Company may also incur significant legal fees, which are expensed as incurred, in defending against these claims. The Company is not currently aware of any pending or threatened litigation that would have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial statements.

Synopsys

On February 3, 2017, Synopsys, Inc. (“Synopsys”) filed a complaint against the Company, one of our subsidiaries and an employee in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, alleging claims under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. On January 17, 2019, the Company and Synopsys entered into a settlement pursuant to which the Company paid $18 million to Synopsys and agreed to a permanent injunction to prevent any unlicensed use of Synopsys’s software. As a result of the settlement, the litigation with Synopsys was dismissed. The settlement does not contain any admission of liability, wrongdoing, or responsibility by any of the parties.

Vivato/XR

On April 19, 2017, XR Communications, LLC, d/b/a Vivato Technologies (“Vivato”), filed a complaint against the Company in the United States District Court for the Central District of California, alleging that at least one of the Company’s products infringes United States Patent Numbers 7,062,296 (the “’296 Patent”), 7,729,728 (the “’728 Patent”), and 6,611,231 (the “’231 Patent and, collectively, the “Patents-in-Suit”). The ‘296 and ‘728 Patents are entitled “Forced Beam Switching in Wireless Communication Systems Having Smart Antennas.” The ‘231 Patent is entitled “Wireless Packet Switched Communications Systems and Networks Using Adaptively Steered Antenna Arrays.” Vivato amended its complaint on June 23, 2017 and again on July 6, 2017. According to the complaint, the products accused of infringing the Patents-in-Suit include Wi-Fi access points and routers supporting MU-MIMO, including without limitation access points and routers utilizing the IEEE 802.11ac-2013 standard. Vivato has also filed nine other lawsuits asserting the same patents against other defendants in the Central District of California. On October 2, 2017, the ten

cases were consolidated into a single action for all purposes except trial. On March 19, 2018, the Company and the remaining defendants in the consolidated action moved to stay the case (the “Motion to Stay”) pending completion of certain inter partes review proceedings before the Patent Trial and Appeal Board. On April 9, 2018, the Court held a hearing on the Motion to Stay, and, on April 11, 2018, the Court granted the motion. On February 11, 2019, the Court maintained the stay pending a status conference scheduled for December 2, 2019.

The Company plans to vigorously defend itself against these claims; however, there can be no assurance that the Company will prevail in the lawsuit. The Company cannot currently estimate the possible loss or range of losses, if any, that it may experience in connection with this litigation.

SEC Subpoena

As previously disclosed on the Form 8-K filed by the Company on February 20, 2018, on February 13, 2018, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) issued subpoenas to the Company and certain of the Company’s officers requesting documents and information relating to a range of topics, including metrics relating to the Ubiquiti Community, accounting practices, financial information, auditors, international trade practices, and relationships with distributors and various other third parties. The Company is in the process of responding to the requests and intends to cooperate fully with the SEC. As the SEC’s investigation is ongoing, we cannot currently predict the timing or the outcome of such investigation.

Shareholder Class Actions

On February 21, 2018, a purported class action, captioned Paul Vanderheiden v. Ubiquiti Networks, Inc. et al., No. 18-cv-01620 (the "Vanderheiden Action"), was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against the Company and certain of its current and former officers. The Vanderheiden Action complaint alleges that the defendants violated Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder by making false and/or misleading statements, including purported overstatements of the Company’s online community user engagement metrics and accounts receivable. On February 28, 2018 and March 13, 2018, substantially similar purported class actions, captioned Xiya Qian v. Ubiquiti Networks, Inc. et al., No. 18-cv-01841 (the “Qian Action”) and John Kho v. Ubiquiti Networks, Inc. et al., No. 18-cv-02242 (the "Kho Action", together with the Vanderheiden Action and the Qian Action, the “Class Actions”), respectively, were filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. On October 24, 2018, the court consolidated the Class Actions and appointed lead plaintiff and lead counsel (the “Consolidated Class Action”). Plaintiff filed its Consolidated Amended Complaint on December 24, 2018. On March 21, 2019, Defendants informed the Court that they were prepared to move to dismiss the Consolidated Amended Complaint but that, consistent with the Court's individual practices, they would refrain from filing that motion pending receipt of further guidance from the Court.

While the Company believes that the Consolidated Class Action is without merit and plans to vigorously defend itself, there can be no assurance that the Company will prevail. The Company cannot currently estimate the possible loss or range of losses, if any, that it may experience in connection with this litigation.

Shareholder Derivative Actions & Section 220 Demand

On March 13, 2018, Anthony Franchi filed a shareholder derivative complaint in the Superior Court of the State of California, County of San Mateo against the Company’s directors, and certain of its officers (the "Franchi Action"). The Company is named as a nominal defendant. The complaint asserts claims against all individual defendants for breach of fiduciary duty for disseminating false and misleading information and failure to maintain internal controls and unjust enrichment. Additional claims are asserted against Robert Pera for breach of fiduciary duty for insider selling and misappropriation of information, as well as the violation of California Corporations Code § 25402. The allegations in support of these claims are similar to the allegations made in the Consolidated Class Actions. Plaintiff seeks a judgment on behalf of the Company for all damages incurred or that will be incurred as a result of the alleged breaches of fiduciary duty by the individual defendants, a judgment ordering disgorgement of all profits, benefits, and other compensation obtained by the individual defendants, a judgment directing the Company to reform its governance and internal procedures, and attorneys’ fees and other costs. The Company moved for a stay of the derivative action pending resolution of the Consolidated Class Action. The court denied the Company's motion, but stayed discovery until the resolution of any motion to dismiss the Consolidated Class Action. On August 27, 2018, the individual defendants and nominal defendant Ubiquiti demurred to the Franchi Action. Plaintiff filed an omnibus response on October 5, 2018 and defendants filed replies on October 22, 2018. The demurrers are pending before the Court. On June 4, 2018, alleged Ubiquiti stockholder Richard Gericke served a demand to inspect the Company’s books and records pursuant to Section 220 of the Delaware General Corporation Law. The Company commenced its production of documents responding to Mr. Gericke’s requests for records on August 22, 2018 and completed its production on October 10, 2018. In addition to serving his Section 220 demand, Mr. Gericke sought leave to intervene in the Franchi Action. Mr. Gericke’s motion was denied without prejudice on November 30, 2018.

On March 11, 2019, Mr. Gericke filed a shareholder derivative complaint in the Court of Chancery for the State of Delaware against the Company’s directors and certain of its officers (the “Gericke Action”). The Company is named as a nominal defendant. The complaint asserts claims against all defendants for breach of fiduciary duty, waste of corporate assets, and

unjust enrichment. The allegations in support of these claims are similar to the allegations made in the Franchi Action. Plaintiff seeks a judgment on behalf of the Company for the damages sustained by the individual defendants’ alleged wrongdoing, an award to the Company of restitution from the individual defendants, an award to Plaintiff of the costs and disbursements of the action, including attorneys’ fees, and an order directing the Company to take action to reform and improve corporate governance and internal procedures. The Company’s response to the complaint is currently due by September 30, 2019.

NOTE 12—STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

Stock-Based Compensation Plans

2010 Equity Incentive Plan

In March 2010, the Company’s Board of Directors and stockholders approved the 2010 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2010 Plan”). The 2010 Plan replaced the 2005 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2005 Plan”), and no further awards will be granted pursuant to the 2005 Plan. Under the terms of the 2010 Plan, non-statutory stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, and restricted stock units (“RSUs”) may be granted to employees or non-employee service providers. Incentive stock options may be granted only to employees.

The 2010 Plan is administered by the Company's Board of Directors or a committee of the Company’s Board of Directors. Subject to the terms and conditions of the 2010 Plan, the administrator has the authority to select the persons to whom awards are to be made, to determine the number of shares to be subject to awards and the terms and conditions of awards, and to make all other determinations and to take all other actions necessary or advisable for the administration of the 2010 Plan. The administrator is also authorized to adopt, amend or rescind rules relating to administration of the 2010 Plan. Options and RSUs generally vest over a four -year period from the date of grant and generally expire five to ten years from the date of grant. The terms of the 2010 Plan provide that an option price shall not be less than 100% of fair market value on the date of grant.

2005 Equity Incentive Plan

With the adoption of the 2010 Plan, no additional awards may be granted under the 2005 Plan. In February 2005, the Company’s Board of Directors and the stockholders approved the 2005 Plan, which was amended and restated in March 2006. The 2005 Plan provided for the issuance of stock options, restricted stock and stock bonuses to employees, consultants, advisors, directors and officers of the Company. The terms of the options granted under the 2005 Plan were determined at the time of grant. The Company made use of different vesting schedules through fiscal 2009, but subsequent new grants generally vested as to 25% on the first anniversary of the date of grant and monthly thereafter over the next three years and generally have a term of 10 years from the date of grant.

As of June 30, 2019, the Company had 10,577,855 authorized shares available for future issuance under all of its stock incentive plans.

As of June 30, 2019, the Company had no unrecognized compensation cost related to stock options.

The Company estimates the fair value of employee stock options using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The fair value of employee stock options is being amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the awards. The Company did not grant any stock options during fiscal 2019, fiscal 2018, or fiscal 2017.

Forfeiture rate. The Company estimates its forfeiture rate based on an analysis of its actual forfeitures and will continue to

evaluate the adequacy of the forfeiture rate based on actual forfeiture experience, analysis of employee turnover behavior and

other factors. The impact from a forfeiture rate adjustment will be recognized in full in the period of adjustment, and if the

actual number of future forfeitures differs from that estimated, the Company may be required to record adjustments to stock based compensation expense in future periods.

Cash received from stock option exercises during fiscal 2019, 2018 and 2017 was $0.8 million, $1.5 million and $1.4 million, respectively.

Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”)

The reconciliation of federal statutory income tax to the Company's provision for income taxes is as follows:

						Years Ended June 30,
						2019						2018						2017
Statutory rate						21.0		%				28.1		%				35.0		%
Effect of Foreign Operations						(7.7)						(19.0)						(23.3)
State Tax Expense						0.9						0.5						0.3
Federal research and development credits						(0.2)						(0.4)						(0.4)
Stock-based compensation						(0.2)						(8.4)						(2.5)
Other permanent items						1.0						0.1						0.6
Change in U.S. Federal Statutory Tax Rate						—						0.4						—
Transition tax						0.6						36.2						—
Effective tax rate						15.4		%				37.5		%				9.7		%

The Company’s effective tax rate decreased 22.1% to 15.4% in fiscal 2019 from 37.5% in fiscal 2018. Our effective tax rate and resulting provision for income taxes for the year ended June 30, 2019 reflects the full current year impact of the 2017 Tax Act, which resulted in a reduction in the U.S. statutory rate to 21% which is partially offset by a reduced tax benefit from foreign operations. In addition, in fiscal year 2018 we realized $29.1 million compared to $1.4 million in fiscal 2019 related to excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation which are reflected as a reduction of our income tax expense.

On December 22, 2017, the U.S. government enacted a comprehensive tax legislation, commonly referred to as the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “2017 Tax Act”). The 2017 Tax Act reduced the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate to 21% from 35%, required companies to pay a one-time transition tax on earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries that were previously tax deferred and created new taxes on certain foreign-sourced earnings. In fiscal year 2018 we recorded provisional amounts for certain enactment-date effects of the 2017 Tax Act by applying the guidance in Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 ("SAB 118"), because we had not yet completed our enactment-date accounting for these effects.

As a result during fiscal 2018, the Company recorded tax expense related to the enactment-date effects of the 2017 Tax Act that included recording the one-time transition tax liability related to undistributed earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries that were not previously taxed of $114.3 million, and $2.3 million related to the adjustment of deferred tax assets and liabilities to reflect the new corporate tax rate resulting in a total tax expense related to the 2017 Tax Act in fiscal 2018 of $116.6 million.

As of June 30, 2018, we had not completed our accounting for all of the enactment-date income tax effects of the 2017 Tax Act under ASC 740, Income Taxes, for the following aspects: remeasurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities, one-time transition tax, and determination of a policy election related to recording deferred income taxes related to global intangible low-taxed income ("GILTI"). However as of December 31, 2018, we completed our accounting for all of the enactment-date income tax effects of the 2017 Tax Act. During the second quarter of fiscal year 2019, we recognized an additional expense of $2.8 million to the provisional transition tax liability amount recorded at June 30, 2018 and included this adjustment as a component of income tax expense from continuing operations in fiscal 2019. There were no additional adjustments to deferred income taxes and the Company has made a policy election to treat GILTI as a period cost.

A reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances of the unrecognized tax benefits during the years ended June 30, 2019, 2018 and 2017 consists of the following (in thousands):

 

						Years Ended June 30,
						2019						2018						2017
Unrecognized benefit—beginning of year						$	29,144					$	27,438					$	22,851
Gross increases—current year tax positions						3,852						4,762						5,184

Unrecognized benefit—end of year						$	30,850					$	29,144					$	27,438

As of June 30, 2019, the Company had approximately $30.9 million of unrecognized tax benefits, substantially all of which would, if recognized, affect its tax expense. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits within the income tax expense line in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income. Accrued interest and penalties are included within the related tax liability line in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. As of June 30, 2019, the Company had $4.1 million accrued interest related to uncertain tax matters. The Company, or one of its subsidiaries, files income tax returns in the United States federal jurisdiction, and various state, local, and foreign jurisdictions and is currently undergoing income tax examinations by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service and the Hong Kong Inland Revenue Department. All material consolidated federal income tax matters have been concluded for years through 2014. All material state and local income tax matters have been concluded through 2014. The majority of the Company’s foreign jurisdictions have been concluded through 2014, with the exception of Hong Kong which has been reviewed through 2009. The Company believes that within the next twelve months, it is reasonably possible that a decrease of up to $3.7 million in unrecognized tax benefits may occur due to settlements with tax authorities or statute lapse.

In July 2018, the Company received a draft Notice of Proposed Adjustment (“NOPA”) from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) proposing an adjustment to income for the fiscal 2015 and 2016 tax years based on its interpretation of certain obligations of the non-US entities under the credit facility. The incremental tax liability associated with the income adjustment proposed in the draft NOPA would be approximately $50 million, excluding interest and penalties. The Company strongly believes the position of the IRS with regard to this matter is inconsistent with the provisions of the credit facility and applicable tax laws. However, there can be no assurance that this matter will be resolved in the Company’s favor. Regardless of whether the matter is resolved in the Company’s favor, the final resolution of this matter could be expensive and time-consuming to defend and/or settle. As the Company believes that the tax originally paid in fiscal 2015 and 2016 is correct, it has not provided an additional reserve for this tax uncertainty. However, there is still a possibility that an adverse outcome of the matter could have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations and financial condition.

The Company is currently under audit by the Hong Kong Inland Revenue Department ("IRD") which covers the fiscal 2010 through 2016 tax years. As of June 30, 2019, the Company made deposits of approximately $20.0 million, of which $13.4 million was made during fiscal 2019 and $6.6 million was made in fiscal 2018 with the tax authorities in connection with our agreement to extend the statute for the 2010-2012 tax years. These deposits are included within Other long-term assets on our Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Company continues to believe that its tax positions filed with IRD are more likely than not to be sustained based on their

72

Table of Contents

technical merits and therefore no reserve has been provided for this tax uncertainty and we expect the $20 million of deposits made with IRD to be refunded upon completion of the audit. However, there can be no assurance that this matter will be resolved in the Company’s favor and therefore it's possible that an adverse outcome of the matter could have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations and financial condition.

On July 27, 2015, in Altera Corp. v. Commissioner, the U.S. Tax Court issued a decision related to the treatment of stock-based compensation expense in an intercompany cost-sharing arrangement, holding that the Treasury Regulations under which the compensation was mandatory included as costs were invalid. On June 27, 2016, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) appealed the court's decision to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. On July 24, 2018 the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals overturned the U.S. Tax Court's decision reversing in favor of the IRS, and holding that the Regulations were valid. On August 8, 2018, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals withdrew this decision, and assigned a new panel to consider the appeal. On June 7, 2019 the Ninth Circuit released their decision on the appeal. This case focused on the validity of amendments made to the cost sharing regulations in August of 2003 (2003 CSA SBC Regulations) which explicitly required the inclusion of SBC costs in intangible development cost (IDC) pools for CSAs. While this recent opinion has some differences, the basis and nature of the 2019 opinion has much in common with the withdrawn 2018 opinion. We will continue to monitor ongoing developments and potential impacts of this case on our consolidated financial statements, and intercompany arrangements.
