NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1. Description of Business and Basis of Presentation

Description of Business

Varian Semiconductor Equipment Associates, Inc. (“Varian Semiconductor,” the “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) designs, manufactures, markets and services semiconductor processing equipment used in the fabrication of integrated circuits to customers located both in the United States, or U.S., and in international markets.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared by us in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S., or GAAP, for interim financial information and pursuant to the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the related notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year 2010 filed with the SEC on November 22, 2010. In the opinion of management, the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the information required to be set forth therein. The results of operations for the three and six months ended April 1, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for a full year or for any other period.

All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Certain amounts in the prior period consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation.

Recently Adopted Changes in Accounting Principles

In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued authoritative guidance which requires a reporting entity to disclose separately the amounts of significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements and also to describe the reasons for these transfers. This guidance also requires a gross presentation of activity related to Level 3 fair value measurements, presenting separately information about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements. This guidance is effective for the first interim or annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the gross presentation of the Level 3 fair value measurements, which is required for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2010 and for interim reporting periods within those years. We adopted this guidance in the first quarter of fiscal year 2010 except for the guidance related to the gross presentation of Level 3 fair value measurements, which we adopted in the first quarter of fiscal year 2011. The adoption of this guidance had no impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In October 2009, the FASB issued new accounting guidance for revenue recognition for multiple element arrangements. The new accounting guidance impacts the determination of when the individual elements included in a multiple element arrangement may be treated as separate units of accounting and modifies the manner in which the transaction consideration is allocated across the separately identified elements by requiring the use of the relative selling price method and no longer permitting the use of the residual method to allocate arrangement consideration. Additionally, the new accounting guidance modifies the fair value requirements by allowing the use of estimated selling prices, or ESP, of elements if the entity does not have vendor-specific objective evidence, or VSOE, or third-party evidence, or TPE, of a selling price. A selling price hierarchy must be followed in which an entity must first determine that it does not have VSOE or TPE before using ESP to allocate revenue to the elements in an arrangement. The new accounting guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010, with early adoption permitted. We adopted the new accounting guidance in the third quarter of fiscal year 2010. In accordance with the new guidance, we applied the adoption prospectively from the beginning of fiscal year 2010. There was no significant impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows upon implementation and we do not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on our future reporting periods based on our current practices.

In October 2009, the FASB issued new accounting guidance for certain revenue arrangements that include software elements. The new accounting guidance amends the scope of pre-existing software revenue guidance by removing from the guidance non-software components of tangible products and certain software components of tangible products. The new accounting

guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010, with early adoption permitted, and must be adopted in the same period as the new accounting guidance for revenue recognition for multiple element arrangements. Accordingly, we adopted the new accounting guidance in the third quarter of fiscal year 2010. The adoption of this new guidance had no impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In February 2008, the FASB issued authoritative guidance which allows for the delay of the effective date for one year of the authoritative guidance for fair value measurements for all nonfinancial assets and liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis. We adopted the provisions of the guidance for financial assets and liabilities on October 4, 2008, but elected a partial deferral under the provision related to nonfinancial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. We adopted the guidance related to nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities that are not measured at fair value on a recurring basis in the first quarter of fiscal year 2010. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Note 2. Fair Value

Fair Value Hierarchy

The accounting standards codification for fair value measurements specifies a hierarchy for disclosure of fair value measurement. The classification of assets and liabilities within the hierarchy is based on whether the inputs to the valuation methodology used for measurement are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect market-derived or market-based information obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect our estimates about market data. The three levels are defined as follows:

 

•

Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities for the instrument or security to be valued.

 

•

Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly through corroboration with observable market data for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

 

•

Level 3 inputs are derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable and are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

This hierarchy requires the use of observable market data when available. We maintain policies and procedures to value instruments using the best and most relevant data available. Further, we used internal sources and considered external sources to assist us in valuing certain instruments.

Determination of Fair Value

We measure fair value utilizing the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

The following is a description of valuation methodologies we used to measure assets and liabilities at fair value, including an indication of the level in the fair value hierarchy.

Cash equivalents

We consider all highly liquid investments with a remaining maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents and are classified as Level 1 in the valuation hierarchy. Cash equivalents such as Certificates of Deposit and Commercial Paper are classified as Level 2 in the valuation hierarchy. The carrying amounts of cash equivalents approximate estimated fair value due to the short-term maturities of those financial assets.

Securities available-for-sale

Equity securities are classified as Level 1 in the valuation hierarchy, where quoted prices are available in an active market. We may utilize an alternative pricing method (for example, matrix pricing) and quotations from bond dealers to assist in determining fair value for each security traded over-the-counter rather than on a securities exchange. Matrix pricing is a

 

5

---

mathematical technique which considers information with respect to comparable bond and note transactions or by reference to other securities that are considered comparable in such characteristics as rating, interest rate and maturity date, to determine fair value. Securities priced using such methods are classified as Level 2 and include U.S. Treasury and government agency securities, corporate bonds and municipal bonds.

Deferred compensation

The deferred compensation liability represents our obligation to pay benefits under our non-qualified deferred compensation plan. The related investments, held in a Rabbi Trust, consist of equity securities, primarily mutual funds, and are classified as Level 1 in the valuation hierarchy. Realized gains and losses to fair value of both the equity securities and the related deferred compensation liabilities are recorded in marketing, general and administrative expense.

Derivatives

We use quoted prices in an active market for derivative assets and liabilities, which are traded on exchanges. These derivative assets and liabilities are classified as Level 1.

Non-Marketable Equity Investments

As of both April 1, 2011 and October 1, 2010, the portfolio of financial assets excludes $1.7 million of investment in equity in four private companies. These investments are accounted for under the cost method and are outside the scope of the authoritative accounting guidance for fair value measurements. These equity investments are included in long-term investments on our consolidated balance sheets.

Note 3. Cash, Cash Equivalents and Investments

We consider all highly liquid investments with a remaining maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash and cash equivalents. The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents approximate estimated fair value because of the short-term maturities of those financial instruments. Cash equivalents as of April 1, 2011 and October 1, 2010 were $239.4 million and $150.3 million, respectively.

Investments consist primarily of U.S. Treasury and government agency securities and corporate bonds. All investments have been classified as available-for-sale and are carried at fair value. The cost of securities sold was determined based on the specific identification method. Investments with contractual maturities greater than one year from the respective balance sheet date are classified as long-term.

Net realized gains on investments for the three and six months ended April 1, 2011 were $0.4 million and $0.6 million, respectively. Net realized losses for both the three and six months ended April 2, 2010 were $0.1 million. As of April 1, 2011 and October 1, 2010, net unrealized gains on investments of $1.3 million and $2.1 million, respectively, were recorded as other comprehensive income.

We determined that the unrealized losses as of April 1, 2011, as aggregated by security type in the table below, are temporary. This assessment is based upon the nature of the investments and the causes of the unrealized losses. The investments are in corporate bonds, U.S. Treasury and government agency securities and municipal bonds as stated in the investment policy. The unrealized losses relate to the decline in fair value due to differences between the securities’ interest rates at acquisition and current interest rates and the decline in credit worthiness of certain debtors.

Unrealized losses on investments as of April 1, 2011 by investment category and length of time the investment has been in a continuous unrealized loss position are as follows:

 

		In Loss Position for  Less than 12 Months								In Loss Position for 12 Months or More								Total
		Estimated Fair  Value				Gross Unrealized Losses				Estimated Fair  Value				Gross Unrealized Losses				Estimated Fair  Value				Gross Unrealized Losses

Maturing between 1 year and 5 years			133,701				101,332
Total		$	191,790			$	162,203

Note 4. Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation cost is measured at grant date and is based on the fair value of the award. The straight-line method is applied to all grants with service conditions, while the graded vesting method is applied to all grants with both service and performance conditions.

The estimated fair value of our stock-based awards, less expected forfeitures, is amortized over the vesting period of the respective award. The effect of recording stock-based compensation for the three and six months ended April 1, 2011 and April 2, 2010 are as follows:

Provision for income taxes			(930	)			(1,092	)			(1,648	)			(2,110	)
Total cost related to stock-based compensation, net of tax		$	5,907			$	5,247			$	10,454			$	9,536

We estimate the fair value of stock options using the Black-Scholes valuation model. Key input assumptions used to estimate the fair value of stock options include the exercise price of the award, the expected option term, the risk-free interest rate over the option’s expected term, the expected annual dividend yield and the expected stock price volatility. Our expected term is calculated using historical data and assumes that all outstanding options will be exercised at the midpoint of the vest date and the full contractual term and is further adjusted for demographic data. We interpolate the risk-free interest rate from the U.S. Treasury zero-coupon bond that coincides with the expected term. We do not have a history of paying dividends, nor do we expect to in the future. We use a blended volatility, using our historical and implied volatility measures. Estimates of fair value are not intended to predict actual future events or the value ultimately realized by persons who receive equity awards.

The fair value of each option grant was estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions:

 

		Six Months Ended
		April 1, 2011				April 2, 2010
Expected life (in years)			4.2				3.7
Expected volatility			50.1	%			51.3	%
Risk-free interest rate			1.6	%			1.7	%
Expected dividend yield			0.0	%			0.0	%
Weighted-average grant date fair value		$	14.49			$	12.20

The following table summarizes stock option and restricted stock activity as of and for the six months ended April 1, of fiscal year 2011:

As of April 1, 2011, there were a total of 3,064,798 shares reserved for issuance under the 2006 Stock Incentive Plan. The aggregate intrinsic value is based on our closing stock price of $48.11 on April 1, 2011, and represents the amounts that would have been received by the option holders had all option holders exercised their options as of that date. Intrinsic value is defined as the difference between the market price on the date of exercise and the grant date price.

As of April 1, 2011, the unrecognized compensation cost, net of estimated forfeitures, related to unvested stock options and restricted stock was $11.8 million and $38.2 million, respectively. These amounts will be recognized over an estimated weighted average amortization period of 2.0 years and 3.2 years, respectively.

The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the three and six month periods ended April 1, 2011, was $29.0 million and $37.2 million, respectively. The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the three and six month periods ended April 2, 2010, was $1.9 million and $8.7 million, respectively.

The total fair value of restricted stock grants that vested during the three and six month periods ended April 1, 2011, was $4.2 million and $9.8 million, respectively. The total fair value of restricted stock grants that vested during the three and six month periods ended April 2, 2010, was $3.4 million and $7.4 million, respectively.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

Our employees who elect to participate in the Employee Stock Purchase Plan, or ESPP, are able to purchase common stock at the lower of 85% of the fair market value of our common stock on the first or last day of the applicable offering period. Each offering period lasts six months. On November 24, 2008, we decided to suspend enrollment and participation in the ESPP as of January 1, 2009 due to efforts to reduce equity compensation expense. We lifted the suspension on January 1, 2011. During the six months ended April 1, 2011, there were no shares purchased under the ESPP. As of April 1, 2011, there were a total of 828,266 shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the ESPP. The fair value of shares issued under the ESPP was estimated on the commencement date of each offering period using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions:

 

		Six Months Ended
		April 1, 2011
Expected life (in years)			0.5
Expected volatility			34.4	%
Risk-free interest rate			0.2	%
Expected dividend yield			0.0	%
Weighted-average grant date fair value		$	9.16

Note 5. Computation of Net Income Per Share

Basic net income per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and participating unvested restricted stock outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted net income per share includes additional dilution from stock issuable pursuant to the exercise of outstanding stock options and non-participating unvested restricted stock. Options to purchase common shares with exercise prices that exceeded the market value of the underlying common stock are excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share. For purposes of the diluted net income per share calculation, the additional shares issuable upon exercise of stock options are determined using the treasury stock method, which includes as assumed proceeds, share-based compensation expense and the tax effect of such compensation.

The calculation of assumed proceeds, used to determine diluted weighted average shares outstanding under the treasury stock method is adjusted by tax windfalls and shortfalls associated with outstanding stock awards. Windfalls and shortfalls are computed by comparing the tax deductible amount of outstanding stock awards to their grant date fair values and multiplying the result by the applicable statutory tax rate. A positive result creates a windfall, which increases the assumed proceeds and a negative result creates a shortfall, which reduces the assumed proceeds.

A reconciliation of the numerator and denominator used in the net income per share calculations is presented as follows:

Included in these amounts were $62.4 million and $55.2 million, respectively, for long-term tax liabilities related to uncertain tax positions (see Note 16. Income Taxes). In addition, product warranty liabilities, post-employment liabilities, environmental and other costs which are not expected to be expended within the next year are included in long-term accrued expenses and other long-term liabilities. The current portion is recorded within accrued expenses and other current liabilities.

Note 10. Product Warranties

We warrant that our products will be free from defects in materials and workmanship and will conform to our standard published specifications in effect at the time of delivery for a period of three to twelve months from the date the customer accepts the products. Additionally, we warrant that maintenance services will be performed in a workmanlike manner consistent with generally accepted industry standards for a period of 90 days from the completion of any agreed-upon services. We provide for the estimated cost of product warranties, the amount of which is based primarily upon historical information, at the time product revenue is recognized. Our warranty obligation is affected by a number of factors, including product failure rates, utilization levels, material usage, service delivery costs incurred in correcting a product failure, and supplier warranties on parts delivered to us. Should these factors or other factors affecting warranty costs differ from our estimates, revisions to the estimated warranty liability would be required. Product warranty activity for the three and six months ended April 1, 2011 and April 2, 2010 was as follows:

 

		Three Months Ended								Six Months Ended

Note 12. Commitments, Contingencies and Guarantees

As permitted under Delaware law, we have agreements whereby we indemnify our officers and directors for certain events or occurrences while the officer or director is, or was, serving in such capacity at our request. The term of the indemnification period is upon the later of (i) ten years after the person has ceased being an officer or director, or (ii) the termination of all pending or threatened actions, suits, proceedings or investigations. The maximum potential amount of future payments we could be required to make under these indemnification agreements is unlimited; however, we have a director and officer insurance policy that limits our exposure and enables us to recover a portion of any future amounts paid. As a result of our insurance policy coverage, we believe the estimated fair value of these indemnification agreements is minimal. Accordingly, as of April 1, 2011 and October 1, 2010, we had no liabilities recorded for these agreements.

We enter into indemnification agreements in the normal course of business. Pursuant to these agreements, we indemnify, hold harmless, and agree to reimburse the indemnified party for losses suffered or incurred by the indemnified party, such as our customers or partners, in connection with any patent, or any copyright or other intellectual property infringement claim by any third party with respect to our products. We seek to limit liability for such indemnity, for example to an amount not to exceed the sales price of the products subject to the indemnification obligations. The term of these indemnification agreements may vary, although in many instances, is perpetual any time after execution of the agreement. The maximum potential amount of future payments we could be required to make under these indemnification agreements may be unlimited. Based on information available, we believe the estimated fair value of these agreements is minimal. Accordingly, as of April 1, 2011 and October 1, 2010, we had no liabilities recorded for these agreements.

We also indemnify certain customers with respect to damages, losses and liabilities they may suffer or incur relating to personal injury, personal property damage, product liability, and environmental claims related to the use of our products and services or resulting from the acts or omissions of us, our employees, officers, authorized agents or subcontractors. We have general and umbrella insurance policies that limit our exposure under these indemnification obligations and guarantees. As a result of our insurance policy coverage and based on information available, we believe the estimated fair value of these indemnification agreements is minimal. Accordingly, as of April 1, 2011 and October 1, 2010, we had no liabilities recorded for these agreements.

Prior to the spin-off of Varian Semiconductor from Varian Associates, Inc., or VAI, Varian Semiconductor’s business was operated as the Semiconductor Equipment Business, or SEB, of VAI. On April 2, 1999, VAI contributed its SEB to Varian Semiconductor, its Instruments Business to Varian, Inc., or VI, and changed its name to Varian Medical Systems, Inc., or VMS. In May 2010, VI became a wholly owned subsidiary of Agilent Technologies, Inc. In connection with the spin-off from VAI, Varian Semiconductor, VMS and VI entered into certain agreements which include a Distribution Agreement, an Employee Benefits Allocation Agreement, an Intellectual Property Agreement, a Tax Sharing Agreement, and a Transition Services Agreement, (collectively, the Distribution Related Agreements) whereby Varian Semiconductor agreed to indemnify VMS and VI for any costs, liabilities or expenses relating to Varian Semiconductor’s legal proceedings. Under the Distribution Related Agreements, Varian Semiconductor has agreed to reimburse VMS for one-third of the costs, liabilities, and expenses, adjusted for any related tax benefits recognized or realized by VMS, with respect to certain legal proceedings relating to discontinued operations of VMS. We believe, the difference between the estimated fair value of the indemnification agreements and the amounts recorded in our financial statements, is minimal.

Our operations are subject to various foreign, federal, state and/or local laws relating to the protection of the environment. These include laws regarding discharges into soil, water and air, and the generation, handling, storage, transportation and disposal of waste and hazardous substances. In addition, several countries are reviewing proposed regulations that would require manufacturers to dispose of their products at the end of a product’s useful life. These laws have the effect of increasing costs and potential liabilities associated with the conduct of certain operations.

We also enter into purchase order commitments in the normal course of business. As of April 1, 2011, we had $112.3 million of purchase order commitments with various suppliers. In addition, we maintain vendor liability agreements whereby product can be delivered within our lead time requirements. As of April 1, 2011, our maximum liability under these arrangements was approximately $38.0 million.

Environmental Remediation

VAI has been named by the United States Environmental Protection Agency and third parties as a potentially responsible party under the Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, at eight sites where VAI is alleged to have shipped manufacturing waste for recycling or disposal. VAI is also involved in various stages of environmental investigation and/or remediation under the direction of, or in consultation with, foreign, federal, state and/or local agencies at certain current or former VAI facilities (including facilities disposed of in connection with VAI’s sale of its Electron Devices business during fiscal year 1995, and the sale of its Thin Film Systems business during fiscal year 1997). The Distribution Related Agreements provide that each of VMS, Varian Semiconductor and VI will indemnify the others for one-third of these environmental investigation and remediation costs, as adjusted for any insurance proceeds and tax benefits expected to be realized upon payment of these costs.

For certain of these sites and facilities, various uncertainties make it difficult to assess the likelihood and scope of further investigation or remediation activities or to estimate the future costs of such activities if undertaken. Per the estimates provided by VMS, we have accrued $0.9 million in estimated environmental investigation and remediation costs for these sites and facilities as of April 1, 2011. As to other sites and facilities, sufficient knowledge has been gained to be able to reasonably estimate the scope and costs of future environmental activities. As such, we have accrued $3.8 million as of April 1, 2011, which represents future costs discounted at 4%, net of inflation, to cover our portion of these costs. This reserve is in addition to the $0.9 million as of April 1, 2011, as previously described.

As of April 1, 2011, our environmental liability, based upon future environmental-related costs estimated by VMS as of that date and included in current and long-term accrued expenses, totaled $4.7 million, of which $1.0 million is classified as current.

The amounts set forth in the foregoing paragraph are only estimates of anticipated future environmental-related costs, and the amounts actually spent in the years indicated may be greater or less than such estimates. The aggregate range of cost estimates reflects various uncertainties inherent in many environmental investigation and remediation activities and the large number of sites where VMS is undertaking such investigation and remediation activities. VMS believes that most of these cost ranges will narrow as investigation and remediation activities progress. We believe that our reserves are adequate, but as the scope of the obligations become more clearly defined, these reserves may be modified and related charges against income may be made.

Although any ultimate liability arising from environmental-related matters described herein could result in significant expenditures that, if aggregated and assumed to occur within a single fiscal year, would be material to our financial statements, the likelihood of such occurrence is considered remote. Based on information currently available to management and our best assessment of the ultimate amount and timing of environmental-related events, our management believes that the costs of these

 

14

---

environmental-related matters are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial statements.

We evaluate our liability for environmental-related investigation and remediation in light of the liability and financial strength of potentially responsible parties and insurance companies where we believe that we have rights to contribution, indemnity and/or reimbursement. Claims for recovery of environmental investigation and remediation costs already incurred, and to be incurred in the future, have been asserted against various insurance companies and other third parties. VMS receives certain cash payments in the form of settlements and judgments from defendants, its insurers and other third parties from time to time. VMS has also reached an agreement with an insurance company under which the insurance company agreed to pay a portion of our past and future environmental-related expenditures. Accordingly, we have recorded a receivable for approximately $1.1 million at each of April 1, 2011 and October 1, 2010 which was included in other assets on our consolidated balance sheets. We believe that this receivable is recoverable because it is based on a binding, written settlement agreement with a solvent and financially viable insurance company and the insurance company has, in the past, paid the claims that VMS has made.

Legal Proceedings

We are currently a party to legal disputes. While we believe we have meritorious claims and/or defenses with respect to each dispute, we cannot predict the outcome of each such dispute. Management believes that the ultimate outcome of these disputes, individually and in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of our operations.

Note 14. Share Repurchase Plan

Our board of directors authorized the repurchase, from time to time, of up to $900.0 million of our common stock on the open market. The program does not have a fixed expiration date. As of April 1, 2011, approximately $123.6 million remained available for repurchase under our existing repurchase authorization.

We repurchased the following shares of our common stock under our share repurchase plan during the three and six months ended April 1, 2011:

We repurchased an additional 140,400 shares between April 1, 2011 and April 26, 2011, the latest practicable date prior to the filing date of this report.

Note 15. Operating Segments and Geographic Information

We have determined that we operate in one business segment: the manufacturing, marketing and servicing of semiconductor processing equipment for ion implantation systems. Since we operate in one segment, all financial segment information can be found in the consolidated financial statements.

We expect that sales of our products to relatively few customers will continue to account for a high percentage of our revenue in the foreseeable future. For the three months ended April 1, 2011, revenue from two customers accounted for 28% and 15% of our total revenue. For the three months ended April 2, 2010, revenue from two customers accounted for 28% and 16% of our total revenue. For the six months ended April 1, 2011, revenue from two customers accounted for 27% and 12% of our total revenue. For the six months ended April 2, 2010, revenue from three customers accounted for 29%, 14% and 10% of our total revenue.

As of April 1, 2011, two customers represented 28% and 13%, respectively, of our total accounts receivable balance. As of October 1, 2010, four customers accounted for 12%, 11%, 11% and 10%, respectively, of our total accounts receivable balance.

Note 16. Income Taxes

Our effective tax rate is based on the tax laws and statutory rates applied to our expected annual earnings from operations in the U.S. and other tax jurisdictions throughout the world.

 

16

---

Our income tax provision was $20.9 million for the first six months of fiscal year 2011 and $10.0 million for the first six months of fiscal year 2010. Our tax rate was 12% and 15% for the first six months of fiscal year 2011 and 2010, respectively, including discrete items. Discrete benefits for the first six months of fiscal year 2011 were $3.6 million and include $1.8 million from the retroactive reinstatement of the U.S. research and experimentation credit, the release of reserves for uncertain tax positions of $1.3 million due to the lapse of statutes of limitations, $0.6 million related to tax return adjustments offset by interest accrued on uncertain tax positions and other discrete items. The discrete income tax benefit related to these items in the first six months of fiscal year 2011 decreased the tax rate by approximately 2% for that period. Discrete net benefits for the first six months of fiscal year 2010 were $1.8 million and primarily relate to the release of reserves for unrecognized tax benefits and tax return adjustments offset by interest accrued on uncertain tax positions. The discrete income tax net benefit related to these items in the first six months of fiscal year 2010 decreased the tax rate by approximately 3%.

The tax rate for the first six months of fiscal year 2011 differed from the statutory tax rate of 35% due to income earned in low tax jurisdictions, the retroactive reinstatement of the U.S. research and experimentation credit, reversals of tax reserves, and tax return adjustments.

The net increase in the reserve for unrecognized tax benefits during the first six months of fiscal year 2011 was $7.5 million due to positions taken in the current quarter offset by reserve releases. As of April 1, 2011, the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits was $70.1 million, of which $68.2 million would impact the effective tax rate, if recognized. The difference between the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits and the amount that would impact the effective rate consists of items that are offset by deferred tax assets, relating to state tax credits which are fully offset by a valuation allowance. As of April 1, 2011, the total amount of accrued interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions was $5.2 million. We will re-examine the tax provision and the effect of estimated unrecognized tax benefits on our financial position at the end of each reporting period. We include interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits within our provision for income taxes.

We and our subsidiaries are subject to examination by federal, state and foreign tax authorities. The statute of limitations for our tax filings with federal, state and foreign tax authorities is open for fiscal years 2003 through the present. The Internal Revenue Service, or IRS, commenced an examination of fiscal year 2007 in December 2008. The IRS completed examinations of certain refund claims filed for fiscal years 2002 to 2004 and we filed a protest of the refund claim audit findings with the Appeals Office of the IRS. The IRS audit of fiscal year 2007 is continuing and has been extended to include fiscal year 2009. It is unknown whether agreement on the refund claims or resolution of the IRS audit of fiscal year 2007 will be reached within the next twelve months. The favorable resolution of the claims filed with the Appeals Office could result in a benefit to the tax provision of up to $5.8 million, excluding interest. Based on the status of the IRS audit, it is not possible to estimate the impact of the amount of any changes to our previously recorded uncertain tax positions. It is possible that up to $3.2 million of unrecognized tax positions, excluding interest and penalties, may be recognized within one year as the result of the lapse of statutes of limitations.
