(dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)
(Unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation
Unaudited Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of Viasystems Group, Inc. and its
subsidiaries (Viasystems or the Company) reflect all adjustments consisting only of normal
recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of
financial position and results of operations and cash flows. The results for the three months
ended March 31, 2011, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a full
fiscal year. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with
the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Companys annual
report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.
Nature of Business
Viasystems is a leading worldwide provider of complex multi-layer printed circuit boards (PCBs)
and electro-mechanical solutions. The Companys products are used in a wide range of applications,
including automotive engine control modules, data networking equipment, telecommunications
switching equipment, complex medical and technical instruments, and flight control systems.
Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Viasystems
Group, Inc. and its wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting
principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect i) the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities, ii) the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the
date of the financial statements and iii) the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period.
Estimates and assumptions are used in accounting for the following significant matters, among
others:
| allowances for doubtful accounts; |
| inventory valuation; |
| fair value of derivative instruments and related hedged items; |
| fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in acquisitions; |
| useful lives of property, plant, equipment and intangible assets; |
| long-lived and intangible asset impairments; |
| restructuring charges; |
| warranty and product returns allowances; |
| deferred compensation agreements; |
| tax related items; |
| contingencies; and |
| fair value of options granted under the Companys stock-based compensation plans. |

Table of Contents
Actual results may differ from previously estimated amounts, and such differences may be material
to the Companys consolidated financial statements. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed
periodically, and the effects of revisions are reflected in the period in which the revision is
made. The Company does not consider as material any revisions made to estimates or assumptions
during the periods presented in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.
Commitments and Contingencies
The Company is a party to contracts with third party consultants, independent contractors and other
service providers in which the Company has agreed to indemnify such parties against certain
liabilities in connection with their performance. Based on historical experience and the
likelihood that such parties will ever make a claim against the Company, in the opinion of the
Companys management, the ultimate liabilities resulting from such indemnification obligations will
not have a material adverse effect on its financial condition and results of operations and cash
flows.
The Company is a party to contracts and agreements with other third parties in which the Company
has agreed to indemnify such parties against certain liabilities in connection with claims by
unrelated parties. At March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, other non-current liabilities include
$12,925 and $12,919, respectively, of accruals for potential claims in connection with such
indemnities.
Viasystems certificate of incorporation provides that none of the directors and officers of the
Company bear the risk of personal liability for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a
director or officer except in cases where the action involves a breach of the duty of loyalty, acts
in bad faith or intentional misconduct, the unlawful payment of dividends or repurchasing of
capital stock, or transactions from which the director or officer derived improper personal
benefits.
The Company is subject to various lawsuits and claims with respect to such matters as product
liability, product development and other actions arising in the normal course of business. In the
opinion of the Companys management, the ultimate liabilities resulting from such lawsuits and
claims will not have a material adverse effect on its financial condition and results of operations
and cash flows.
Earnings or Loss Per Share
The Company computes basic earnings (loss) per share by dividing its net income (loss) attributable
to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding
during the period. The computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share is based on the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding during the period plus, to the extent they are
dilutive, common stock equivalents which would arise from i) the exercise of stock options, ii) the
conversion of convertible debt and iii) the weighted average number of unvested restricted stock
awards outstanding.

Table of Contents
The components used in the computation of basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share attributable
to common stockholders were as follows:
Three Months Ended March 31, | ||||||||
2011 | 2010 | |||||||
Net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders |
$ | 3,466 | $ | (147,871 | ) | |||

$ | 0.17 | $ | (12.57 | ) | |||
Net income (loss) per share attributable to common stockholders diluted |
$ | 0.17 | $ | (12.57 | ) | |||
For the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, convertible debt, as well as out of the
money stock options outstanding of 1,678,424 and 209,380, respectively, were excluded from the
calculation of diluted net income (loss) per share because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company measures the fair value of assets and liabilities using a three-tier fair value
hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows: Level 1
observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2 inputs, other than quoted
market prices in active markets, which are observable, either directly or indirectly; and Level 3 -
valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs are
unobservable. In addition, the Company may use various valuation techniques including the market
approach, using comparable market prices; the income approach, using present value of future income
or cash flow; and the cost approach, using the replacement cost of assets.
The Company records deferred gains and losses related to cash flow hedges based on the fair value
of active derivative contracts on the reporting date, as determined using a market approach (see
Note 7). When applicable, all such contracts covered by master netting agreements are reported
net, with gross positive fair values netted with gross negative fair values by counterparty. As
quoted prices in active markets are not available for identical contracts, Level 2 inputs are used
to determine fair value. These inputs include quotes for similar but not identical derivative
contracts and market interest rates that are corroborated with publicly available market
information.
The Companys financial instruments consist of cash equivalents, accounts receivable, long-term
debt, and other long-term obligations. For cash equivalents, accounts receivable and other
long-term obligations, the carrying amounts approximate fair value. The estimated fair market
values of the Companys debt instruments and cash flow hedges are as follows:
March 31, 2011 | ||||||||||
Fair | Carrying | |||||||||
Value | Amount | Balance Sheet Classification | ||||||||
Senior Secured Notes due 2015 |

Table of Contents
The Company determined the fair values of the Senior Secured Notes due 2015 using quoted
market prices for the notes. The Company estimated the fair value of the Senior Subordinated
Convertible Notes due 2013 to be their par value based upon their most recent trading activity. As
the balance owed on the Zhongshan 2010 Credit Facility (see Note 5) bears interest at a variable
rate, the carrying value of this debt instrument approximates its fair value.
Noncontrolling Interest
In connection with the Merix Acquisition (see Note 2), the Company acquired a majority interest in
manufacturing facilities in Huiyang and Huizhou, China, in which a noncontrolling interest holder
retained an ownership of 5% and 15%, respectively. The noncontrolling interest is reported as a
component of equity, and the net income attributable to the noncontrolling interest is reported as
a reduction from net income (loss) to arrive at net income (loss) attributable to the Companys
common stockholders. The Company leases the manufacturing facilities in Huiyang and Huizhou, China
and purchases consulting and other services from the noncontrolling interest holder. During the
three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company paid the noncontrolling interest holder
$216 and $133, respectively, related to rental and service fees.
A reconciliation of noncontrolling interest for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, is
as follows:

2. The Merix Acquisition
On February 16, 2010, the Company acquired Merix Corporation (Merix) in a transaction pursuant to
which Merix became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the Merix Acquisition). The
following unaudited pro forma information presents the combined results of operations of Viasystems
and Merix for the three months ended March 31, 2010, as if the Merix Acquisition had been completed
on January 1, 2010, with adjustments to give effect to pro forma events that are directly
attributable to the Merix Acquisition. The unaudited pro forma results do not reflect any
operating efficiencies or potential cost savings which may have resulted from the consolidation of
the operations of the companies, nor do they include restructuring expenses incurred
related to the Merix Acquisition and related transactions. Accordingly, these unaudited pro forma
results are presented for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to represent or be
indicative of the actual results of operations of the combined company that would have been
achieved had the acquisition occurred at the beginning of the period presented, nor are they
intended to represent or be indicative of future results of operations.

During the three months ended March 31, 2011, the Company reversed $134 of accrued severance
related to the 2010 Acquisition Restructuring as a result of higher than expected employee
attrition, which reduced the number of planned involuntary terminations.
The Company recorded $6,309 of restructuring charges for the three months ended March 31, 2010, of
which $2,246 was incurred in the Printed Circuit Boards segment related to the 2010 Acquisition
Restructuring, and $4,063 of which was incurred in Other, which primarily related to the
cancellation of a monitoring and oversight agreement in connection with a recapitalization of the
Company immediately prior to the Merix Acquisition.
7. Derivative Financial Instruments and Cash Flow Hedging Strategy
The Company uses foreign exchange forward contracts that are designated and qualify as cash flow
hedges to manage certain foreign exchange rate risks. The Companys objective is to limit
potential losses in earnings or cash flows from adverse foreign currency exchange rate movements.
The Companys foreign currency exposure arises from the transacting of business in a currency other
than the U.S. dollar, which is the currency in which the Company incurs the majority of its costs.
The Company enters into foreign exchange forward contracts after considering future use of foreign
currencies, desired foreign exchange rate sensitivities and the foreign exchange rate environment.
Prior to entering into a hedge transaction, the Company formally documents the relationship between
hedging instruments to be used and the hedged items, as well as the risk management objective for
undertaking the hedge transactions. The term over which the Company hedges exposure to the
exchange rate variability of future cash flows is generally less than one year.
The Company recognizes all such derivative contracts as either assets or liabilities in the balance
sheet and measures those instruments at fair value (see Note 1) through adjustments to other
comprehensive income, current earnings, or both, as appropriate. Accumulated other comprehensive
income as of March 31, 2011, and December 31, 2010, included deferred gains of $771 (net of taxes
of $244) and $20 (net of tax of $0), respectively.

Table of Contents
The Company records deferred gains and losses related to cash flow hedges based on the fair value
of active derivative contracts on the reporting date, as determined using a market approach and
Level 2 inputs (see Note 1). As of March 31, 2011, and December 31, 2010, all of the Companys
derivatives were in the form of Chinese RMB foreign exchange forward contracts which were
designated and qualified as cash flow hedging instruments. The following table summarizes the
Companys outstanding derivative contracts:

9. Income Taxes
The Companys income tax provision relates to i) taxes provided on its pre-tax earnings based on
the effective tax rates in the jurisdictions where the income is earned and ii) other tax matters,
including changes in tax related contingencies such as uncertain tax positions. Taxes provided on
pre-tax income relate primarily to the Companys profitable operations in China and Hong Kong.
Because of substantial net operating loss carryforwards related to the U.S. and other tax
jurisdictions, the Company has not recognized certain income tax benefits in those jurisdictions
for certain expenses, including the
Companys substantial interest expense. For the three months ended March 31, 2011, the Companys
tax provision includes net expense of $3,487 related to pre-tax earnings and a net benefit of
$4,076 related to other tax matters, including a reversal of $5,260 of uncertain tax positions due
to lapsing of the applicable statute of limitations. For the three months ended March 31, 2010, the
Companys tax provision included net expense of $2,504 related to its pre-tax earnings and net
expense of $1,347 related to other tax matters.

Company Overview
We are a leading worldwide provider of complex multi-layer printed circuit boards (PCBs) and
electro-mechanical solutions (E-M Solutions). PCBs serve as the electronic backbone of almost
all electronic equipment, and our E-M Solutions products and services integrate PCBs and other
components into finished or semi-finished electronic equipment, which include custom and standard
metal enclosures, metal cabinets, metal racks and sub-racks, backplanes, cable assemblies and
busbars. The components we manufacture include, or can be found in, a wide variety of commercial
products, including automotive engine controls, hybrid converters, automotive electronics for
navigation, safety, entertainment and anti-lock braking systems, telecommunications switching
equipment, data networking equipment, computer storage equipment, wind and solar energy
applications, flight control systems and several other complex medical and technical instruments.
We have ten manufacturing facilities, including two in the United States and eight located outside
of the United States that allow us to take advantage of low cost, high quality manufacturing
environments, while serving a broad base of customers around the globe. Our PCB products are
produced in our two domestic facilities and four of our seven facilities in China. Our E-M
Solutions products and services are provided from our other three facilities in China and our one
facility in Mexico. In addition to our manufacturing facilities, in order to support our
customers local needs, we maintain engineering and
customer service centers in Hong Kong, China, the Netherlands, England, Canada, Mexico and the
United States.
16
Table of Contents
We operate our business in two segments: Printed Circuit Boards, which includes our PCB products,
and Assembly, which includes our E-M Solutions products and services.
We are a supplier to over 800 original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and contract electronic
manufacturers (CEMs) in numerous end markets. Our OEM customers include industry leaders such as
Alcatel-Lucent SA, Autoliv, Inc., Bosch Group, Ciena Corporation, Cisco Systems, Inc., Continental
AG, Dell Inc., Delphi Corporation, EMC Corporation, Ericsson AB, General Electric Company, Harris
Communications, Hewlett-Packard Company, Huawei Technologies Co. Ltd., Motorola Inc., Rockwell
Automation, Inc., Rockwell Collins, Siemens AG, Tellabs, Inc., TRW Automotive Holdings Corp. and
Xyratex Ltd. In addition, we have good working relationships with industry-leading CEMs such as
Benchmark Electronics, Inc., Celestica, Inc., Jabil Circuit, Inc. and Plexus Corp., and we supply
PCBs and E-M Solutions products to these customers as well.
Business Overview
We have been working with our customers and suppliers to determine the effect on the supply of
electronic components from Japan stemming from the earthquake on March 11, 2011, and the resulting
tsunami, aftershocks and nuclear incidents. While we expect only minor impacts on the flow of
supplies directly into our operations, it is less clear what the possible impacts on our customers
future order patterns may be. Reports of temporary cessation of production in automobile and other
factories suggest that component sourcing matters unrelated to our business may result in customers
deferring orders of PCBs and assemblies.
Our results for the first quarter of 2011 reflect increasing costs of labor and materials,
especially at our facilities in China. In addition to minimum wage increases, the Chinese
government implemented employment based social taxes on foreign-owned enterprises. A continued
tightening of labor resources in China resulted in higher than usual levels of overtime pay costs
at several of our PCB facilities. In addition to increased costs for commodities like copper and
gold, a sustained high demand for electronic components allowed our materials suppliers to command
higher prices for their products. As these trends continue, we expect we will experience sustained
higher material costs through the end of 2011, especially if the tragedies in Japan result in
reduced market supply of component materials. As a result of these factors, we are actively engaged
in negotiations for selling price increases to compensate for labor and materials cost increases.
As a component manufacturer, our sales trends generally reflect the market conditions in the
industries we serve. In the automotive sector, we are adding capacity at our principal automotive
qualified PCB manufacturing facility and are working to achieve automotive qualifications at our
other PCB facilities i) as a result of increasing demand and ii) in anticipation of the expiration
of the lease of our facility in Huizhou, China at the end of 2012. In the industrial &
instrumentation market, we have experienced increased demand from our broad base of customers, and
we expect sales trends in this diverse market will follow global economic trends. The
telecommunications end-user market remains dynamic as the customers we supply produce a mixture of
products which include both new cutting edge applications as well as more mature products with
varying levels of demand. We continue to try to position ourselves to take advantage of growth
opportunities related to the introduction of next generation wireless technology standards. In the
computer and datacom market, we continue to pursue new customers and programs for both our Printed
Circuit Boards and Assembly segments, especially in the high-end server and storage sectors. In
the military and aerospace market, we continue to pursue market share gains as a result of
continuing customer qualification activity and the NADCAP accreditation received by our Forest
Grove, Oregon facility and the AS9100 certification received by our Huiyang, China facility in
2010; however, overall demand trends in this market may be negatively impacted by the ongoing
budget debate in Washington.

Results of Operations
Three Months Ended March 31, 2011, Compared with the Three Months Ended March 31, 2010
Net Sales. Net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2011, were $238.7 million, representing
a $52.1 million, or 27.9%, increase from net sales during the same period in 2010. Assuming the
Merix Acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2010, on a pro forma basis, net sales increased by
approximately $10.1 million, or 4.4% to $238.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011,
as compared to the same period in 2010.
Net sales by end-user market for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, on a historical
basis, and as of March 31, 2010, on a pro forma basis as if the Merix Acquisition had been
completed
on January 1, 2010, were as follows:

Total Net Sales |
$ | 238.7 | $ | 186.6 | $ | 228.6 | ||||||
Our net sales of products for end use in the automotive market increased by approximately
$18.3 million, or 25.3% during the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to the same period
in 2010. Assuming the Merix Acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2010, on a pro forma basis,
net sales of products for end use in this market increased by approximately $10.1 million, or 12.5%
to $90.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011, as compared to the same period in 2010.
The increase is a result of increased global demand from our automotive customers, partially offset
by a temporary reduction in production capacity at our principal automotive qualified PCB facility
due to unscheduled maintenance.
Net sales of products ultimately used in the industrial & instrumentation markets for the three
months ended March 31, 2011, increased by approximately $17.3 million, or 39.0% compared to the
same period in 2010. Assuming the Merix Acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2010, on a pro
forma basis, net sales of products for end use in this market increased by approximately $7.8
million, or 14.5% to $61.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011, as compared
with the same period in 2010. The increase in net sales was driven primarily by increased global
demand across our broad base of customers, including wind power and elevator controls related
programs, as well as new customer and program wins.
Net sales of products ultimately used in the telecommunications market increased by approximately
$4.6 million, or 11.7% for the quarter ended March 31, 2011, as compared to the quarter ended March
31, 2010. Assuming the Merix Acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2010, on a pro forma basis,
net sales of products for use in this end market decreased by approximately $7.0 million, or 13.8%
to $43.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011, as compared to the same period in 2010.
The pro forma sales decline is primarily a result of reduced demand for certain programs we supply
and inventory corrections from one of our larger customers. While we have seen some stabilization
in the global telecommunications market, this industry remains dynamic.
During the first quarter of 2011, net sales of our products for use in the computer and
datacommunications market increased by approximately $6.0 million, or 23.7%, as compared to the
same
period in the prior year. Assuming the Merix Acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2010, on a pro
forma basis, net sales of products for use in this end market decreased by approximately $1.6
million, or 4.9% to $31.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011, as compared with the
same period in 2010. The decrease was driven by reduced demand from a large datacommunications
customer, partially offset by sales associated with new customers and programs.

Net sales to the military and aerospace end-user market increased $5.9 million or 113.5% to $11.1
million for the quarter ended March 31, 2011, as compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2010.
Assuming the Merix Acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2010, on a pro forma basis, net sales of
products for use in the military and aerospace end-user market increased by approximately $0.8
million, or 7.8% to $11.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011, as compared with the
same period in 2010. The increase is primarily a result of market share growth stemming from
customer qualification activities initiated during 2010.
Net sales by segment for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, were as follows:
Historical | Pro Forma | |||||||||||
Segment (dollars in millions) | 2011 | 2010 | 2010 | |||||||||

Printed Circuit Boards segment net sales, including intersegment sales, for the three months ended
March 31, 2011, increased by $43.5 million, or 28.5% to $196.2 million. Assuming the Merix
Acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2010, on a pro forma basis, Printed Circuit Boards segment
net sales, including intersegment sales, for the three months ended March 31, 2011, increased by
$1.5 million or less than one percent. This modest increase is a result of increases in net sales
in our automotive, industrial & instrumentation and military and aerospace end-user markets,
partially offset by a decline in net sales in our telecommunications and computer and
datacommunications end-user markets.
Assembly segment net sales increased by $10.0 million, or 27.8% to $46.0 million for the three
months ended March 31, 2011, compared with the first quarter of 2010. The increase was primarily
the result of improved demand in wind power and elevator controls related programs in our
industrial & instrumentation end-user market.
Cost of Goods Sold. Cost of goods sold, exclusive of items shown separately in the condensed
consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2011, was $193.2 million,
or 80.9% of consolidated net sales. This represents a 2.6 percentage point increase from the 78.3%
of consolidated net sales for the first quarter of 2010.
The costs of materials, labor and overhead in our Printed Circuit Boards segment can be impacted by
trends in global commodities prices and currency exchange rates, as well as other cost trends which
can impact minimum wage rates, electricity and diesel fuel costs in China. Economies of scale can
help to offset any adverse trends in these costs. Our results for the first quarter of 2011
reflect increasing costs of labor and materials, significant unscheduled maintenance at one of our
PCB facilities, and inefficiencies in connection with restarting production after scheduled
shutdowns around the time of the Chinese New Year holiday. The increase in labor costs was due to
minimum wage increases and newly implemented employment based social taxes in China, as well as a
labor shortage in some parts of China which contributed to higher than usual attrition, resulting
in increased overtime costs and the payment of retention bonuses. The increase in materials costs
was due to increased costs for commodities like copper and gold, as well as a sustained high demand
for electronic components in our industry which
allowed our materials suppliers to command higher prices for their products. We expect we will
continue to experience significant pressures on materials costs and wages during the remainder of
2011.
19
Table of Contents
Cost of goods sold during the first quarter of 2010 reflected an inventory fair value adjustment of
approximately $0.9 million related to the Merix Acquisition, which negatively impacted the ratio of
cost of goods sold to net sales in that period.
Cost of goods sold in our Assembly segment relates primarily to component materials costs. As a
result, trends in sales volume for the segment drive similar trends in cost of goods sold. Costs
as a percentage of sales during the first quarter were negatively impacted by increased labor and
material costs.
Selling, General and Administrative Costs. Selling, general and administrative costs decreased
$0.5 million, or 2.8% to $18.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to the
same period in the prior year. The net decline in selling, general and administrative costs is a
result of i) a net $3.6 million decline in costs relating to acquisitions and equity registrations
and ii) reduced incentive compensation expense, partially offset by i) a $1.4 million increase in
non-cash stock compensation expense related to awards under our 2010 Equity Incentive Plan, ii)
costs associated with annual management meetings which had been suspended in 2010 and iii) the
impact of three full months of selling, general and administrative costs associated with the legacy
Merix operations as compared with approximately one and one half months of costs incurred
subsequent to the mid-February acquisition date during the same period in 2010.
Depreciation. Depreciation expense for the three months ended March 31, 2011, was $15.9 million,
including $14.8 million related to our Printed Circuit Boards segment and $1.1 million related to
our Assembly segment. Depreciation expense in our Printed Circuit Boards segment increased by
approximately $3.3 million, or 28.7% compared to the same period last year primarily as a result of
increased investments in new equipment during the past twelve months and the effect of
approximately 1.5 months of additional depreciation during the period on fixed assets acquired
through the Merix Acquisition. Depreciation expense in our Assembly segment was essentially
unchanged as compared to the same period last year.
Restructuring and Impairment. For the three months ended March 31, 2010, we recorded restructuring
charges associated with the Merix Acquisition and related transactions which totaled approximately
$6.3 million. These charges included approximately $0.8 million related to personnel and severance
and approximately $5.5 million related to leases and other contractual commitments.
Operating Income. Operating income of $11.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011,
represents an increase of $8.7 million compared to operating income of $2.5 million of the three
months ended March 31, 2010. The primary sources of operating income (loss) for the three months
ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, were as follows:
Source (dollars in millions) | 2011 | 2010 | ||||||
Printed Circuit Boards segment |
$ | 9.8 | $ | 9.4 | ||||
Assembly segment |
1.4 | 1.0 | ||||||
Other |
| (7.9 | ) | |||||
Operating income |
$ | 11.2 | $ | 2.5 | ||||
Operating income from our Printed Circuit Boards segment increased by $0.4 million to $9.8 million
for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $9.4 million of operating income for the
same period in the prior year. The increase is primarily the result of increased sales volume and
reduced restructuring and selling, general and administrative costs, partially offset by higher
levels of cost of goods sold relative to sales and increased depreciation costs.
Operating income from our Assembly segment was $1.4 million for the three months ended March 31,
2011, compared to operating income of $1.0 million in the first quarter of 2010. The increase is
primarily the result of increased sales volume.
20
Table of Contents
The operating loss in the Other segment for the three months ended March 31, 2010, relates to
$4.1 million of restructuring charges and $3.9 million of merger related professional fees and
other costs related to the Merix Acquisition.
Adjusted EBITDA. We measure our performance primarily through our operating income. In addition
to our consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, management uses
certain non-U.S. GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA is not a
recognized financial measure under U.S. GAAP, and does not purport to be an alternative to
operating income or an indicator of operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA is presented to enhance
an understanding of our operating results and is not intended to represent cash flows or results of
operations.
Our board of directors, lenders and management use Adjusted EBITDA primarily as an additional
measure of operating performance for matters including executive compensation and competitor
comparisons. In addition, the use of this non-U.S. GAAP measure provides an indication of our
ability to service debt, and we consider it an appropriate measure to use because of our highly
leveraged position.
Adjusted EBITDA has certain material limitations, primarily due to the exclusion of certain amounts
that are material to our consolidated results of operations, such as interest expense, income tax
expense and depreciation and amortization. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA may differ from the
Adjusted EBITDA calculations of other companies in our industry, limiting its usefulness as a
comparative measure.
We use Adjusted EBITDA to provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our operating
performance and profitability by excluding from EBITDA certain items that we believe are not
indicative of our ongoing operating results or will not impact future operating cash flows, as
follows:
| Restructuring and Impairment Charges which consist primarily of facility closures and
other headcount reductions. Historically, a significant amount of these restructuring
charges have been non-cash charges related to the write-down of property, plant and equipment
to estimated net realizable value. We exclude these restructuring and impairment charges to
more clearly reflect our ongoing operating performance. |
| Stock Compensation non-cash charges associated with recognizing the fair value of stock
options and restricted stock awards granted to employees and directors. We exclude these
charges to more clearly reflect comparable year-over-year cash operating performance. |
| Costs Relating to Acquisitions and Equity Registrations professional fees and other
non-recurring costs and expenses associated with mergers and acquisition activity as well as
costs associated with capital transactions, such as equity registrations. We exclude these
costs and expenses because they are not representative of our customary operating expenses. |
Reconciliations of operating income to Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2011
and 2010, were as follows:

21
Table of Contents
Adjusted EBITDA increased by $2.6 million, or 9.7%, primarily as a result of a 27.9% increase in
net sales, partially offset by a 2.6 percentage point increase in costs of goods sold relative to
net sales.
Interest Expense, net. Interest expense, net of interest income, was $7.2 million for the three
month period ended March 31, 2011, compared to $8.9 million of interest expense, net of interest
income, for the quarter ended March 31, 2010. Interest expense related to our 12.0% Senior Secured
Notes due 2015 (the 2015 Notes) is approximately $7.0 million in each quarter as the $220 million
principal, the 12.0% interest rate and the amortization of the $8.2 million original issue discount
remain unchanged since the notes were issued in 2009. The $1.7 million decrease in interest
expense for the quarter ended March 31, 2011, as compared to the same period in the prior year, is
primarily a result of the conversion of our Mandatory Redeemable Class A Junior preferred stock
(the Class A Preferred) to common shares in 2010. Interest expense related to the Class A
Preferred was approximately $2.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010.
Income Taxes. Our income tax provision relates to i) taxes provided on our pre-tax earnings based
on the effective tax rates in the jurisdictions where the income is earned and ii) other tax
matters, including changes in tax related contingencies such as uncertain tax positions. Taxes
provided on pre-tax income relate primarily to our profitable operations in China and Hong Kong.
Because of substantial net operating loss carryforwards related to the U.S. and other tax
jurisdictions, we have not recognized certain income tax benefits in those jurisdictions for
certain expenses, including our substantial interest expense. For the three months ended March 31,
2011, the our tax provision includes net expense of $3.5 million related to pre-tax earnings and a
net benefit of $4.1 million related to other tax matters, including a reversal of $5.3 million of
uncertain tax positions due to lapsing of the applicable statute of limitations. We estimate
approximately $0.7 million of our liability for uncertain tax positions could be resolved during the
remainder of 2011. For the three months ended March 31, 2010, our tax provision included net
expense of $2.5 million related to our pre-tax earnings and net expense of $1.3 million related to
other tax matters.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash Flow
We believe that cash flow from operations and available cash on hand will be sufficient to fund our
recurring capital expenditure requirements and other currently anticipated cash needs for the next
12 months. Our ability to meet our cash needs through cash generated by our operating activities
will depend on the demand for our products, as well as general economic, financial, competitive and
other factors, many of which are beyond our control. We cannot be assured however, that our
business will generate sufficient cash flow from operations, that currently anticipated cost
savings and operating
improvements will be realized on schedule, that future borrowings will be available to us under our
credit facilities or that we will be able to raise third party financing in an amount sufficient to
enable us to pay our indebtedness or to fund our other liquidity needs. We may need to refinance
all or a portion of our indebtedness.
Our principal liquidity requirements for the remainder of 2011 will be for i) $13.2 million
semi-annual interest payments required in connection with our $220 million 2015 Notes, payable in
January and July each year, ii) capital expenditure needs of our continuing operations, iii)
working capital needs, iv) scheduled capital lease payments for equipment leased by our Printed
Circuit Boards segment and v) debt service requirements in connection with our credit facilities.
In addition, the potential for acquisitions of other businesses in the future may require
additional debt or equity financing.
Net cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2011, was $0.9
million, and net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2010, was
$4.4 million. The increase in net cash from operating activities is primarily due to improved net
income, partially offset by investments in working capital.
22
Table of Contents
Net cash used in investing activities was $24.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011,
and primarily relates to capital expenditures, including approximately $6.0 million of the $100.0
million multiyear capacity expansion projects announced in September 2010. Given the uncertainty
about global economic conditions, we have and will continue to focus on managing capital
expenditures to respond to changes in demand or other economic conditions. Since the September
2010 announcement, we have committed or spent approximately $30 million. Due to growing market
demand and the need to transfer the production capacity from our Huizhou, China facility to our
other PCB facilities in China, we expect to commit to and spend the remaining capital expenditures
related to the cpital expansion projects over the next 18 months. Our Printed Circuit Boards
segment is a capital-intensive business that requires annual spending to keep pace with customer
demands for new technologies, cost reductions, and product quality standards. The spending
required to meet our customers requirements is incremental to recurring repair and replacement
capital expenditures required to maintain our existing production capacities and capabilities.
Total capital expenditures by our Printed Circuit Boards segment for the three months ended March
31, 2011 and 2010, were $22.6 million and $8.9 million, respectively.
Net cash used in investing activities was $31.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010,
and related to cash consideration of $35.3 million paid to acquire Merix Corporation, cash acquired
in the acquisition of $13.7 million, and capital expenditures of $9.5 million, of which $8.9
million was in our Printed Circuit Boards segment.
Net cash used in financing activities was $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31 2011,
which related to repayments of capital lease obligations and a distribution to our noncontrolling
interest holder. Net cash provided by financing activities was $7.6 million for the three months
ended March 31, 2010, which related to borrowings on our Zhongshan 2010 Credit Facility, partially
offset by financing fees on our Senior Secured 2010 Credit Facility and repayments of capital lease
obligations. The repayment of the 2011 Notes in January 2010, was funded by restricted cash held
in escrow since the issuance of the 2015 Notes in 2009.
Financing Arrangements
Shelf Registration Statement
With effect from April 7, 2011, we have filed a shelf registration statement with the Securities
and Exchange Commission that will allow us to sell up to $150 million of equity or other securities
described in the registration statement in one or more offerings. The shelf registration statement
gives us greater flexibility to raise funds from the sale of our securities, subject to market
conditions and our capital
needs. In addition, our shelf registration statement includes shares of our common stock currently
owned by VG Holdings, LLC, such that VG Holdings, LLC may offer and sell, from time to time, up to
15,562,558 shares of our common stock. We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of common
stock by VG Holdings, LLC, but we may incur expenses in connection with the sale of those shares.

Zhongshan 2010 Credit Facility
In March 2011, our Kalex Multi-layer Circuit Board (Zhongshan) Limited (KMLCB) subsidiary renewed
its revolving credit facility (the Zhongshan 2010 Credit Facility) with China Construction Bank,
Zhongshan Branch, which included an increase in the credit facility to 250 million Renminbi (RMB)
(approximately $38.1 million U.S. dollars based on the exchange rate as of March 31, 2011). As of
March 31, 2011, $10.0 million in U.S. dollar loans was outstanding under the Zhongshan 2010 Credit
Facility at a rate of LIBOR plus 4.6%, and approximately $28.1 million of the revolving credit
facility was unused and available.
Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk |
Foreign Currency Risk
We conduct our business in various regions of the world, and export and import products to and from
several countries. Our operations may, therefore, be subject to volatility because of currency
fluctuations. Sales are primarily denominated in U.S. dollars, while expenses are frequently
denominated in local currencies, and results of operations may be affected adversely as currency
fluctuations affect our product prices and operating costs or those of our competitors. From time
to time, we enter into foreign exchange forward contracts to minimize the short-term impact of
foreign currency fluctuations. We do not engage in hedging transactions for speculative investment
reasons. Our hedging operations historically have not been material, and gains or losses from
these operations have not been material to our cash flows, financial position or results from
operations. There can be no assurance that our hedging operations will eliminate or substantially
reduce risks associated with fluctuating currencies. At March 31, 2011, there were foreign
currency hedge instruments outstanding with a nominal value of approximately 1.5 billion Chinese
RMB related to our operations in Asia.
Item 4. | Controls and Procedures |
As of March 31, 2011, under the supervision, and with the participation of our Chief Executive
Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, management has evaluated the effectiveness of the design
and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined by Rules 13a-15(e) and
15d-15(c) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act)). Based upon
this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our
disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2011, to ensure that information
required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act (a) is
recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time period specified in the Securities and
Exchange Commissions rules and forms and (b) is accumulated and communicated to our management,
including the principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely
decisions regarding required disclosure.
As required by Rule 13a-15(d) of the Exchange Act, management, including our Chief Executive
Officer and Chief Financial Officer, also conducted an evaluation of our internal control over
financial reporting to determine whether any change occurred during the quarter covered by this
report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal
control over financial reporting. Based on that evaluation, there were no changes in our internal
control over financial reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter covered by this report
that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control
over financial reporting.
