NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – UNAUDITED
NOTE 1. OVERVIEW AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Trimble Navigation Limited (the "Company"), incorporated in California in 1981, provides positioning solutions to commercial and government users in a large number of markets. These markets include surveying, agriculture, construction, asset management, mapping and mobile resource management.
The Company has a 52-53 week fiscal year, ending on the Friday nearest to December 31, which for fiscal 2012 was December 28, 2012. The first quarter of fiscal 2013 and 2012 ended on March 29, 2013 and March 30, 2012, respectively. Fiscal 2013 is a 53-week year and 2012 is a 52-week year. Unless otherwise stated, all dates refer to the Company’s fiscal year and fiscal periods.
The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the results of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries. Inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Noncontrolling interests represent the noncontrolling shareholders’ proportionate share of the net assets and results of operations of the Company’s consolidated subsidiaries.
The accompanying financial data as of the first quarter of fiscal 2013 and for the first quarter of fiscal 2013 and 2012 has been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements, prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of fiscal year end 2012 is derived from the audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K of Trimble Navigation Limited for fiscal year 2012. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Company’s 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions believed to be reasonable. Although these estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of current events and actions that may impact the company in the future, actual results may be different from the estimates.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary have been made to present a fair statement of results for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for the first quarter of fiscal 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full fiscal year or any future periods. Individual segment revenue may be affected by seasonal buying patterns and general economic conditions.
The Company has evaluated all subsequent events through the date that these financial statements have been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The Company has presented revenue and cost of sales separately for products, service and subscriptions. Product revenue includes primarily hardware, software licenses, parts and accessories; service revenue includes primarily hardware and software maintenance and support, training and professional services; subscription revenue includes software as a service (SaaS).
On February 11, 2013, Trimble's Board of Directors approved a 2-for-1 split of all outstanding shares of the Company's Common Stock, payable March 20, 2013 to shareholders of record on March 6, 2013. All shares and per share information presented has been adjusted to reflect the stock split on a retroactive basis for all periods presented.
NOTE 2. UPDATES TO SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
There have been no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting polices during the first quarter of fiscal 2013 from those disclosed in the Company’s 2012 Form 10-K.
NOTE 3. SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY
Stock Repurchase Activities
In October 2011, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program (“2011 Stock Repurchase Program”), authorizing the Company to repurchase up to $100.0 million of Trimble’s common stock. No shares of common stock were repurchased during the first quarter of fiscal 2013 or 2012. The timing and actual number of future shares repurchased will depend on a variety of factors including price, regulatory requirements, capital availability and other market conditions. The program does not require the purchase of any minimum number of shares and may be suspended or discontinued at any time without public notice.
Stock-Based Compensation Expense

7

Table of Contents

The Company accounts for its employee stock options, restricted stock units and employee stock purchase plan (ESPP) under the fair value method, which requires stock-based compensation to be estimated using the fair value on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. The value of the portion of the award that is expected to vest is recognized as expense over the related employees’ requisite service periods in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.
The following table summarizes stock-based compensation expense related to employee stock-based compensation (for all plans) included in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income for the first quarter of fiscal 2013 and 2012.

Fair value of Trimble Options
Stock option expense recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income is based on the fair value of the portion of share-based payment awards that is expected to vest during the period and is net of estimated forfeitures. The Company’s compensation expense for stock options is recognized using the straight-line single option method. The fair values for stock options are estimated on the date of grant using the binomial valuation model. The binomial model takes into account variables such as volatility, dividend yield rate and risk free interest rate. In addition, the binomial model incorporates actual option-pricing behavior and changes in volatility over the option’s contractual term. For options granted during the first quarter of fiscal 2013 and 2012, the following weighted average assumptions were used:
 
 
First Quarter of
 
2013
 
2012
Expected dividend yield
 
Expected stock price volatility
40.3%
 
45.4%
Risk free interest rate
0.6%
 
0.8%
Expected life of options
4.1 years
 
4.1 years
Expected Dividend Yield – The dividend yield assumption is based on the Company’s history and expectation of dividend payouts.
Expected Stock Price Volatility – The Company’s computation of expected volatility is based on a combination of implied volatilities from traded options on the Company’s stock and historical volatility, commensurate with the expected life of the stock options.
Expected Risk Free Interest Rate – The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant for the expected life of the stock options.
Expected Life Of Options – The Company’s expected life represents the period that the Company’s stock options are expected to be outstanding and is determined based on historical experience of similar stock options with consideration to the contractual terms of the stock options, vesting schedules and expectations of future employee behavior.
Fair value of Restricted Stock Units
Restricted stock units are converted into shares of Trimble common stock upon vesting on a one-for-one basis. Vesting of restricted stock units is subject to the employee’s continuing service to the Company. The compensation expense related to these awards was determined using the fair value of Trimble’s common stock on the date of grant, and the expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. Restricted stock units typically vest at the end of three years.
Fair value of Employee Stock Purchase Plan

8

Table of Contents

Under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan, rights to purchase shares are generally granted during the second and fourth quarter of each year. The fair value of rights granted under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan was estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.

The Company determined the total consideration paid for each of its acquisitions as well as the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the date of acquisition. For certain acquisitions completed in fiscal 2012 and the first quarter of fiscal 2013, the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are preliminary and may be adjusted as the Company obtains additional information, primarily related to adjustments for the true up of acquired net working capital in accordance with certain purchase agreements, and estimated values of certain net tangible assets and liabilities including tax balances, pending the completion of final studies and analyses. If there are adjustments made for these items, the fair value of intangible asset and goodwill could be impacted. Thus the provisional measurements of fair value are subject to change. Such changes could be significant. The Company expects to finalize the valuation of the net tangible and intangible assets as soon as practicable, but not later than one-year from the acquisition date.

Credit Facilities
On November 21, 2012, the Company entered into an amended and restated credit agreement with a group of lenders (the “2012 Credit Facility”). This credit facility provides for unsecured credit facilities in the aggregate principal amount of $1.4 billion, comprised of a five-year revolving loan facility of $700.0 million and a five-year $700.0 million term loan facility. Subject to the terms of the 2012 Credit Facility, the revolving loan facility and the term loan facility may be increased by $300.0 million in the aggregate. Additionally, we have a $75 million uncommitted revolving loan facility (the “2011 Uncommitted Facility”), which is callable by the bank at any time and has no covenants. The interest rate on the 2011 Uncommitted Facility is 1.00% plus either LIBOR or the bank’s cost of funds or as otherwise agreed upon by the bank and the Company.
As of the first quarter of fiscal 2013, total debt was comprised primarily of a term loan of $691.3 million and a revolving credit line of $173.0 million under the 2012 Credit Facility and a revolving credit line of $53.0 million under the 2011 Uncommitted Facility. Of the total outstanding balance, $656.0 million of the term loan and the $173.0 million revolving credit line are classified as long-term in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.
The funds available under the 2012 Credit Facility may be used for general corporate purposes, the financing of certain acquisitions and the payment of transaction fees and expenses related to such acquisitions. Under the 2012 Credit Facility, the Company may borrow, repay and reborrow funds under the revolving loan facility until its maturity on November 21, 2017, at which time the revolving facility will terminate, and all outstanding loans, together with all accrued and unpaid interest, must be repaid. Amounts not borrowed under the revolving facility will be subject to a commitment fee, to be paid in arrears on the last day of each fiscal quarter, ranging from 0.15% to 0.35% per annum depending on the Company's leverage ratio as of the most recently ended fiscal quarter. The term loan will be repaid in quarterly installments, with the last quarterly payment to be made at September 29, 2017, with the remaining outstanding balance being due and payable on November 21, 2017. On an annualized basis, the amortization of the term loan is as follows: 5%, 5%, 10%, 10% and 70% for years one through five respectively. The term loan may be prepaid in whole or in part, subject to certain minimum thresholds, without penalty or premium. Amounts repaid or prepaid with respect to the term loan facility may not be reborrowed.
The Company may borrow funds under the 2012 Credit Facility in U.S. Dollars, Euros or in certain other agreed currencies, and borrowings will bear interest, at the Company’s option, at either: (i) a floating per annum base rate based on the administrative agent’s prime rate or other agreed-upon rate, depending on the currency borrowed, plus a margin of between 0.00% and 1.00%, depending on the Company's leverage ratio as of the most recently ended fiscal quarter, or (ii) a reserve-adjusted fixed per annum rate based on LIBOR, EURIBOR, or other agreed-upon rate, depending on the currency borrowed, plus a margin of between 1.00% and 2.00%, depending on the Company's leverage ratio as of the most recently ended fiscal quarter. Interest will be paid on the last day of each fiscal quarter with respect to borrowings bearing interest based on a floating rate, or on the last day of an interest period, but at least every three months, with respect to borrowings bearing interest at a fixed rate. The Company's obligations under the 2012 Credit Facility are guaranteed by several of the Company's domestic subsidiaries.
The 2012 Credit Facility contains various customary representations and warranties by the Company, which include customary use of materiality, material adverse effect and knowledge qualifiers. The 2012 Credit Facility also contains customary affirmative and negative covenants including, among other requirements, negative covenants that restrict the Company's ability to dispose of assets, create liens, incur indebtedness, repurchase stock, pay dividends, make acquisitions and make investments. Further, the 2012 Credit Facility contains financial covenants that require the maintenance of minimum interest coverage and maximum leverage ratios. Specifically, the Company must maintain as of the end of each fiscal quarter a ratio of (a) EBITDA (as defined in the 2012 Credit Facility) to (b) interest expenses for the most recently ended period of four fiscal quarters of not less than 3.5 to 1. The Company must also maintain, at the end of each fiscal quarter, a ratio of (x) total indebtedness to (y) EBITDA (as defined in the 2012 Credit Facility) for the most recently ended period of four fiscal quarters of not greater than the applicable ratio set forth in the table below; provided, that on the completion of a material acquisition, the Company may increase the applicable ratio in the table below by 0.25 for the fiscal quarter during which such acquisition occurred and each of the three subsequent fiscal quarters.

The Company was in compliance with these restrictive covenants as of the first quarter of fiscal 2013.
The 2012 Credit Facility contains events of default that include, among others, non-payment of principal, interest or fees, breach of covenants, inaccuracy of representations and warranties, cross defaults to certain other indebtedness, bankruptcy and insolvency events, material judgments and events constituting a change of control. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an

Table of Contents

event of default, interest on the obligations will accrue at an increased rate and the lenders may accelerate the Company's obligations under the 2012 Credit Facility, however that acceleration will be automatic in the case of bankruptcy and insolvency events of default.
The weighted average interest rate on the current portion of the long-term debt outstanding under the 2012 Credit Facility and 2011 Uncommitted Facility was 1.66% and 1.96% at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2013 and fiscal year end 2012, respectively. The interest rate on the non-current debt outstanding under the 2012 Credit Facility was 1.89% and 1.96% at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2013 and fiscal year end 2012, respectively.
Promissory Notes and Other Debt
As of the first quarter of fiscal 2013 and fiscal year end 2012, the Company had promissory notes and other debt totaling approximately $3.2 million for both periods, of which $0.1 million for both periods was classified as long-term in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

As of the first quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company had unconditional purchase obligations of approximately $103.8 million. These unconditional purchase obligations primarily represent open non-cancelable purchase orders for material purchases with the Company’s vendors. Purchase obligations exclude agreements that are cancelable without penalty.
NOTE 8. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The Company determines fair value based on the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. Where available, fair value is based on observable market prices or parameters . Where observable prices or inputs are not available, valuation models are applied. Hierarchical levels, defined by the guidance on fair value measurements are directly related to the amount of subjectivity associated with the inputs to fair valuation of these assets and liabilities, and are as follows:
Level I – Observable inputs such as unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level II – Inputs (other than quoted prices included in Level I) are either directly or indirectly observable for the asset or liability. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.
Level III – Unobservable inputs that reflect management’s best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. Consideration is given to the risk inherent in the valuation technique and the risk inherent in the inputs to the model.
Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are categorized in the tables below based upon the lowest level of significant input to the valuations.

The fair value of the bank borrowings and promissory notes has been calculated using an estimate of the interest rate the Company would have had to pay on the issuance of notes with a similar maturity and discounting the cash flows at that rate. The fair values do not give an indication of the amount that the Company would currently have to pay to extinguish any of this debt.
NOTE 9. PRODUCT WARRANTIES

14

Table of Contents

The Company accrues for warranty costs as part of its cost of sales based on associated material product costs, technical support labor costs and costs incurred by third parties performing work on the Company’s behalf. The Company’s expected future costs are primarily estimated based upon historical trends in the volume of product returns within the warranty period and the costs to repair or replace the equipment. The products sold are generally covered by a warranty for periods ranging from 90 days to 5.5 years.
While the Company engages in extensive product quality programs and processes, including actively monitoring and evaluating the quality of component suppliers, its warranty obligation is affected by product failure rates, material usage and service delivery costs incurred in correcting a product failure. Should actual product failure rates, material usage, or service delivery costs differ from the estimates, revisions to the estimated warranty accrual and related costs may be required.
Changes in the Company’s product warranty liability during the first quarter of fiscal 2013 are as follows:

For the first quarter of fiscal 2013 and 2012, the Company excluded 2.5 million and 3.8 million shares of outstanding stock options, respectively, from the calculation of diluted earnings per share. These shares were excluded because the exercise prices of these stock options were greater than or equal to the average market value of the common shares during the respective periods. Inclusion of these shares would be antidilutive. These options could be included in the calculation in the future if the average market value of the common shares increases and is greater than the exercise price of these options.
NOTE 11. INCOME TAXES
In the first quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company’s effective income tax rate was 10% as compared to 17% in the corresponding period in 2012, primarily due to difference in geographic mix of pretax income and the favorable impact of the retroactive research and development tax credit for the fiscal year 2012. The enactment of the American Taxpayer Relief Act in January 2013 resulted in the Company recording a net discrete tax benefit of $3.6 million in the first quarter of 2013. The Company's effective tax rates for the first quarters of fiscal years 2013 and 2012 are lower than the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35% due to discrete benefit

from the reinstatement of the 2012 R&D tax in 2013 and favorable tax rates associated with certain earnings from operations in lower-tax jurisdictions. The Company has not provided U.S. taxes for all of such earnings due to the indefinite reinvestment of some of those earnings outside the U.S.
The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal and state, and foreign income tax. The Company is currently in various stages of multiple year examinations by federal, state and foreign taxing authorities. Although timing of the resolution of audits is highly uncertain, the Company does not believe it is reasonably possible that the unrecognized tax benefits as of March 29, 2013 will materially change in the next twelve months.
The unrecognized tax benefits of $42.4 million and $35.2 million as of the first quarter of fiscal 2013 and fiscal year end 2012, respectively, if recognized, would favorably affect the effective income tax rate in future periods. Unrecognized tax benefits are recorded in Other non-current liabilities and in the deferred tax accounts in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The Company's practice is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. The Company's unrecognized tax benefit liabilities include interest and penalties as of the first quarter of fiscal 2013 and fiscal year end 2012, of $3.4 million and $2.9 million, respectively, which were recorded in Other non-current liabilities in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which are subject to the “safe harbor” created by those sections. Actual results could differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements due to a number of factors including, but not limited to, the risk factors discussed in “Risk Factors” below and elsewhere in this report as well as in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year 2012 and other reports and documents that the Company files from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company has attempted to identify forward-looking statements in this report by placing an asterisk (*) before paragraphs. Discussions containing such forward-looking statements may be found in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” below. In some cases, forward-looking statements can be identified by terminology such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “predicts,” “potential,” “continue,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “future,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “estimates,” and similar expressions. These forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and the Company disclaims any obligation to update these statements or to explain the reasons why actual results may differ.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U. S. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expense, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to product returns, doubtful accounts, inventories, investments, intangible assets, stock-based compensation, income taxes, warranty obligations, restructuring costs, contingencies and litigation. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the amount and timing of revenue and expense and the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
There have been no material changes to the Company’s significant accounting polices during the first quarter of fiscal 2013 from those disclosed in the Company’s 2012 Form 10-K.
EXECUTIVE LEVEL OVERVIEW
Trimble's focus is on integrating its broad technological and application capabilities to create system-level solutions that transform how work is done within the industries we serve, enhancing productivity, accuracy, safety and regulatory compliance for our customers. The majority of our markets are end-user markets, including engineering and construction firms, surveyors, farmers, governmental organizations, energy and utility companies and organizations who must manage fleets of mobile workers and assets. We also provide components to original equipment manufacturers to incorporate into their products. In the end user markets, we provide stand-alone systems which may consist of software, hardware or some combination of the two, as well as integrated enterprise or workflow solutions which address the entire work process. Some examples of our solutions include products that automate and simplify the process of surveying land, products that automate the control, management and utilization of equipment such as tractors and bulldozers, products for engineering or building design, construction and operations management, products that enable a company to manage its mobile workforce and assets, and products that allow municipalities or utilities to manage their fixed assets and operations. To achieve distribution, marketing, production, and technology advantages in our targeted markets, we manage our operations in the following four segments: Engineering and Construction, Field Solutions, Mobile Solutions, and Advanced Devices.
Solutions targeted at the end-user make up a significant majority of our revenue. To create compelling products, we must attain an understanding of the end-users' needs and work flow, and of how our broad based technological capabilities can be deployed and integrated to enable that end-user to work faster, more efficiently, more accurately and more safely. We use this knowledge to create highly innovative solutions that change the way work is done by the end-user. With the exception of our Mobile Solutions and Advanced Devices segments, our products are primarily sold through a dealer channel, and it is crucial that we maintain a proficient, global, third-party distribution channel.
We continue to execute our strategy with a series of actions across new and existing markets:
Reinforcing our position in new and existing markets

We also launched the Trimble Slate Controller, an ergonomic smartphone product incorporating voice, cellular data and an 8-megapixel camera into a device specifically designed for field use, with rugged environmental standards and a touch screen optimized for outdoor, daylight readability. This solution enables surveyors to operate the Trimble Access field software on a smartphone device with superior resistance to shock, drop and moisture than is provided by most consumer smartphone devices. The Trimble Connected Site® solution was further extended with the announcement of Trimble Remote Assistant, providing real-time technical support to field crew personnel or earthworks machine operators, without the time and cost of waiting for a technician to drive to the construction site.

In our Field Solutions segment, we launched multiple new products and services designed to further improve productivity and real-time decision making capabilities within farming operations. The addition of remote diagnostics capabilities to the Trimble Connected Farm™ enables Trimble or authorized reseller support technicians to remotely access Trimble automated steering, application control, yield monitoring and other precision agriculture systems in order to diagnose, support and troubleshoot problems in the field. The launch of our xFill Technology for agriculture and our RangePoint™ RTX™ correction service enhance the range of agricultural applications of our satellite-delivered data services..

A further addition to the Connected Farm portfolio during the first quarter was the launch of the Connected Farm App, an application for Apple and Android smartphones that enables farmers to record crop readings and determine application rates using a smartphone or tablet in conjunction with the Green Seeker® handheld crop sensor, a handheld measurement device designed to assess the health of a crop. The solution enables farmers to more efficiently use fertilizers and other inputs through automated application rate calculations and location tracking data, logging data in real-time to a remote server via a wireless internet connection.

Within our Mobile Solutions segment, we announced the acquisition of ALK Technologies, a provider of routing, mapping, mileage and navigation technologies for transportation, logistics and mobile workforce applications. The combination of ALK's routing, mapping, mileage and navigation capabilities with our enterprise transportation management software and the mobile communications solutions within the our transportation and logistics suite of products further enhances our comprehensive and industry-focused technology approach. We further strengthened our portfolio of products for the environmental industry with the launch of the WaterWell Monitor, a solution for digitally recording and monitoring water wells at landfills and remediation sites. We also announced an agreement with Plexus Controls Corporation of Ottawa, Canada to collaborate on the development of solutions that leverage positioning technology, wireless supervisory control and data acquisition, which we call (SCADA) solutions and mobile field management tools to enhance productivity for consultants and professionals in the environmental industry. Under the agreement, Trimble will have worldwide rights to use Plexus Control's wireless SCADA and mobile monitoring technologies to provide products for the industry.
Also within our Mobile Solutions segment, the Trimble Construction Logistics solution for fleet owners and operators in the construction materials and supply industry was further enhanced during the first quarter with the addition of the TrimFleet™ Communicator product. This integrates critical real-time push-to-talk communications between dispatchers, drivers and mechanics into the solution, making use of existing cellular telephone infrastructure and offering an alternative to legacy, proprietary two way radios or carrier push-to-talk systems. The TrimFleet Communicator product can also be integrated with the Trimble Paving Solution to offer a complete Trimble end-to-end workflow solution from order fulfillment at the concrete batch plant, through delivery, to final placement of the concrete on site by the paving machine. Additionally, we enhanced this integrated paving solution during the first quarter with the launch of the new PCS900 Paving Control System, a 3D control system consisting of on-machine sensors and office software designed to minimize material waste while enabling fast, accurate and automated paving operations without the need for manually placed stringlines.

Bringing existing technology to new markets

We continue to reinforce our position in existing markets and position ourselves in newer markets that will serve as important sources of future growth. Our continued execution of our global SITECH distribution strategy resulted in the establishment of new SITECH Technology Dealers in Vietnam, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, the Republic of South Africa, and Louisiana, U.S.A. during the first quarter.

Revenue
In the first quarter of fiscal 2013, total revenue increased by $53.8 million or 11%, as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2012. Of this increase, product revenue increased $14.2 million, or 4%, service revenue increased $24.2 million, or 42%, and subscription revenue increased $15.4 million, or 33%. The product, service, and subscription revenue increase during the first quarter of fiscal 2013, as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2012, was driven primarily by growth across Engineering and Construction and Mobile Solutions, which included organic growth as well as the impact of the TMW acquisition which was not applicable in the prior period. We consider organic growth to include all revenue except for revenue associated with acquisitions made within the last four quarters.
On a segment basis, Engineering and Construction revenue for the first quarter of fiscal 2013 increased $18.0 million, or 7%, Mobile Solutions increased $31.8 million or 41%, Advanced Devices increased $4.1 million or 15%, and Field Solutions was flat as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2012. Revenue growth within Engineering and Construction was driven by organic growth due to global sales of building construction products, and heavy highway products in the U.S., partially offset by softness in Australia and Europe. Field Solutions revenue was flat primarily due to moderate growth in the agriculture market, partially offset by a decline in GIS markets. Mobile Solutions revenue increased due to strong organic growth in the transportation and logistics market as well as the acquisition of TMW which was not applicable in the prior period. Advanced Devices revenue increased primarily due to stronger sales of embedded and timing devices.
Gross Margin
Gross margin varies due to a number of factors including product mix, pricing, distribution channel, production volumes and foreign currency translations.
Gross margin increased by $27.8 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2013, as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2012. The increase was primarily due to increased sales in Engineering and Construction and Mobile Solutions. Gross margin as a percentage of total revenue for the first quarter of fiscal 2013 and fiscal 2012 were both 51.6%. The flat percentage was primarily due to

product mix, with an increase in higher margin software and subscription sales, which was largely offset by higher amortization of purchased intangible assets.
Operating Income
Operating income decreased by $3.4 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2013, as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2012. Operating income as a percentage of total revenue was 10.2% for the first quarter of fiscal 2013, as compared to 11.9% for the first quarter of fiscal 2012. The decrease in operating income and operating income percentage was primarily driven by higher amortization of purchased intangibles due to acquisitions, largely offset by higher revenue and associated gross margin.
Results by Segment
To achieve distribution, marketing, production and technology advantages in our targeted markets, we manage our operations in the following four segments: Engineering and Construction, Field Solutions, Mobile Solutions and Advanced Devices. Operating income equals net revenue less cost of sales and operating expense, excluding general corporate expense, amortization of purchased intangible assets, amortization of inventory step-up charges, acquisition costs and restructuring costs. Operating leverage is defined as an increase in operating income as a percentage of the increase in revenue.

Engineering and Construction
Engineering and Construction revenue increased by $18.0 million or 7% for the first quarter of fiscal 2013, as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2012. Segment operating income increased $2.9 million or 7% for the first quarter of fiscal 2013, as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2012.
The revenue increase for the first quarter was primarily driven by organic growth due to increased global sales of building construction as the residential and commercial markets revive. Heavy highway sales were up year over year, with growth in North America somewhat limited by weather conditions which delayed purchases. The growth was offset partially by poor market conditions in Europe and Australia. Survey sales were down year over year. Europe and Australia sales were down and North America survey sales, although up, were limited by government spending and weather conditions. Segment operating income increased primarily due to higher revenue.
Field Solutions
Field Solutions revenue was flat for the first quarter of fiscal 2013, as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2012. Segment operating income decreased by $2.8 million or 5% for the first quarter of fiscal 2013, as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2012.
Field Solution revenue was flat for the first quarter of fiscal 2013 primarily due to moderate growth in the agriculture market, partially offset by a decline in GIS markets. There was sales growth for agricultural products in Europe and South American markets. The U.S. was down as a result of a shorter planting window due to weather conditions which delayed purchases. GIS was down due to the impact of U.S. government spending. Segment operating income decreased due to reduced operating leverage in GIS.
Mobile Solutions
Mobile Solutions revenue increased by $31.8 million or 41% for the first quarter of fiscal 2013, as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2012. Segment operating income increased by $4.2 million or 57% for the first quarter of fiscal 2013, as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2012.
The revenue increase for the first quarter of fiscal 2013 was primarily due to continued organic growth in the transportation and logistics market as well as the acquisition of TMW which was not applicable in the prior period. Operating income increased due to increased revenue and product mix, including higher subscription revenue.
Advanced Devices
Advanced Devices revenue increased by $4.1 million or 15% for the first quarter of fiscal 2013, as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2012. Segment operating income increased by $3.1 million or 94% for the first quarter of fiscal 2013, as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2012.
The increase in revenue and operating income for the first quarter of fiscal 2013 was due to increased sales of high margin timing devices and good operating leverage.

Overall, R&D, S&M and G&A expense increased by approximately $26.1 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2013, as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2012.
Research and development expense increased by $13.4 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2013, as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2012. The cost of software developed for external sale subsequent to reaching technical feasibility was not considered material and was expensed as incurred. Research and development spending overall was at approximately 13% of revenue in the first quarter of fiscal 2013, as compared to 12% of revenue in the first quarter of fiscal 2012.
The increase in R&D expense in the first quarter of fiscal 2013, as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2012 was primarily due to the inclusion of expense of $10.6 million from acquisitions not applicable in the first quarter of fiscal 2012 and a $2.5 million increase in compensation related expense due to headcount increases.
* We believe that the development and introduction of new products are critical to our future success and we expect to continue active development of new products.
Sales and marketing expense increased by $7.6 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2013, as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2012. Sales and marketing spending overall was at approximately 15% of revenue in both the first quarter of fiscal 2013 and 2012.
The increase in S&M expense in the first quarter of fiscal 2013, as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2012 was primarily due to the inclusion of expense of $7.6 million from acquisitions not applicable in the first quarter of fiscal 2012.
* Our future growth will depend in part on the timely development and continued viability of the markets in which we currently compete, as well as our ability to continue to identify and develop new markets for our products.
General and administrative expense increased by $5.1 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2013, as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2012. General and administrative spending overall was at approximately 10% of revenue in the first quarter of fiscal 2013, as compared to 9% of revenue in the first quarter of fiscal 2012.
The increase in G&A expenses in the first quarter of fiscal 2013, as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2012 was primarily due to the inclusion of expense of $7.0 million from acquisitions not applicable in the first quarter of fiscal 2012, offset by a decrease of $1.3 million in merger and acquisition costs, and a $0.6 million decrease in bad debt expense.
Amortization of Purchased Intangible Assets
Amortization of purchased intangible assets was $39.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2013, as compared to $28.8 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2012. Of the total $39.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2013, $19.6 million is presented as a separate line within Operating expense and $19.7 million is presented as a separate line within Cost of sales on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. The increase was due to acquisitions not included in the first quarter of fiscal 2012. As of the first quarter of fiscal 2013, future amortization of intangible assets is expected to be $115.9 million during the remaining three quarters of fiscal 2013, $131.0 million during 2014, $118.9 million during 2015, $101.3 million during 2016, $82.3 million during 2017 and $87.4 million thereafter.
Non-operating Income (Expense), Net
The components of non-operating income (expense), net, were as follows:

Non-operating income (expense), net decreased $2.6 million for the first quarter, as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2012. The decrease in the first quarter of fiscal 2013 was primarily due to an increase in interest expense due to an increase in debt associated with acquisitions and lower profitability from joint ventures.
Income Tax Provision
Our effective income tax rate for the first quarter of fiscal 2013 was 10%, as compared to 17% for the first quarter of fiscal 2012, primarily due to difference in geographic mix of pretax income and the favorable impact of the retroactive research and development tax credit for the fiscal year 2012. The enactment of the American Taxpayer Relief Act in January 2013 resulted in the recording of a net discrete tax benefit of $3.6 million in the first quarter of 2013. Our effective tax rates for the first quarters of fiscal years 2013 and 2012 are lower than the U.S. federal statutory rate of 35% due to discrete benefit from the reinstatement of the 2012 R&D tax in 2013 and favorable tax rates associated with certain earnings from operations in lower-tax jurisdictions. We have not provided U.S. taxes for all of such earnings due to the indefinite reinvestment of some of those earnings outside the U.S.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET FINANCINGS AND LIABILITIES
Other than lease commitments incurred in the normal course of business, we do not have any off-balance sheet financing arrangements or liabilities, guarantee contracts, retained or contingent interests in transferred assets, or any obligation arising out of a material variable interest in an unconsolidated entity. We do not have any majority-owned subsidiaries that are not included in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Additionally, we do not have any interest in, or relationship with, any special purpose entities.
In the normal course of business to facilitate sales of our products, we indemnify other parties, including customers, lessors and parties to other transactions with us, with respect to certain matters. We have agreed to hold the other party harmless against losses arising from a breach of representations or covenants, or out of intellectual property infringement or other claims made against certain parties. These agreements may limit the time within which an indemnification claim can be made and the amount of the claim. In addition, we have entered into indemnification agreements with our officers and directors, and our bylaws contain similar indemnification obligations to our agents.
It is not possible to determine the maximum potential amount under these indemnification agreements due to the limited history of prior indemnification claims and the unique facts and circumstances involved in each particular agreement. Historically, payments made by us under these agreements were not material and no liabilities have been recorded for these obligations on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of the first quarter of fiscal 2013 and fiscal year end 2012.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
As of the first quarter of fiscal 2013, cash and cash equivalents totaled $143.6 million as compared to $157.8 million as of fiscal year end 2012. Debt was $920.4 million as of the first quarter of fiscal 2013, as compared to $911.2 million as of fiscal year end 2012.
* Our ability to continue to generate cash from operations will depend in large part on profitability, the rate of collections of accounts receivable, our inventory turns and our ability to manage other areas of working capital.
*We believe that our cash and cash equivalents, together with borrowings under our 2012 Credit Facility as described below under the heading “Debt”, will be sufficient to meet our anticipated operating cash needs, debt service, planned capital expenditures, and stock purchases under the stock repurchase program for at least the next twelve months.
* We anticipate that planned capital expenditures primarily for the building of a facility in Westminster, Colorado which began in 2012 and an upgrade of our Oracle ERP system, as well as computer equipment, software, manufacturing tools and test equipment and leasehold improvements associated with business expansion, will constitute a partial use of our cash resources. Decisions related to how much cash is used for investing are influenced by the expected amount of cash to be provided by operations.
Operating Activities
Cash provided by operating activities was $37.4 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2013, as compared to $67.7 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2012. The decrease of $30.3 million was primarily driven by an increase in accounts receivable, inventories, and deferred revenue, partially offset by an increase in net income before non-cash depreciation and amortization.
Investing Activities
Cash used in investing activities was $76.4 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2013, as compared to $109.5 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2012. The decrease of $33.1 million was due to lower cash requirements for business acquisitions.
Financing Activities
Cash provided by financing activities was $28.2 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2013, as compared to $92.9 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2012. The decrease of $64.7 million was primarily due to a decrease in proceeds from credit facilities, net of repayments, for business acquisitions.

Table of Contents

Accounts receivable days sales outstanding were 64 days as of the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2013, as compared to 57 days as of the end of fiscal 2012. The increase in DSO was primarily due to non-linearity of sales within the quarter, which is typical for the first quarter, and to a lesser extent, the timing of product maintenance and support billings, of which a significant portion will be recognized as revenue over future quarters. Accounts receivable days sales outstanding are calculated based on ending accounts receivable, net, divided by revenue for the corresponding fiscal quarter, times a quarterly average of 91 days. Our inventory turns were both 4.1 as of the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2013 and the end of fiscal 2012. Our inventory turnover is calculated based on total cost of sales for the most recent twelve months divided by average ending inventory, net, for this same twelve month period.
Repatriation of Foreign Earnings and Income Taxes
A significant portion of our foreign earnings continue to be permanently reinvested in our foreign subsidiaries, and it is anticipated this reinvestment will not impede cash needs at the parent company level. In our determination of which foreign earnings are permanently reinvested, we consider numerous factors, including the financial requirements of the U.S. parent company, the financial requirements of the foreign subsidiaries, and the tax consequences of remitting the foreign earnings back to the U.S. There are no other material impediments to our ability to access sources of liquidity and our resulting ability to meet short and long-term liquidity needs, other than in the event we are not in compliance with the covenants under our 2012 Credit Facility or the tax costs of remitting foreign earnings back to the U.S.
Credit Facilities
On November 21, 2012, we entered into an amended and restated credit agreement with a group of lenders (the “2012 Credit
Facility”). This credit facility provides for unsecured credit facilities in the aggregate principal amount of $1.4 billion, comprised of a five-year revolving loan facility of $700.0 million and a five-year $700.0 million term loan facility. Subject to the terms of the 2012 Credit Facility, the revolving loan facility and the term loan facility may be increased by $300.0 million in the aggregate. Additionally, the Company has a $75 million uncommitted revolving loan facility (the "2011 Uncommitted Facility"), which is callable by the bank at any time and has no covenants. The interest rate on the 2011 Uncommitted Facility is 1.00% plus either LIBOR or the bank's cost of funds or as otherwise agreed upon by the bank and us.
As of the first quarter of 2013, our total debt was comprised primarily of a term loan of $691.3 million and a revolving credit line of $173.0 million under the 2012 Credit Facility and a revolving credit line of $53.0 million under the 2011 Uncommitted Facility. Of the total outstanding balance, $656.0 million of the term loan and $173.0 million of the revolving credit line are classified as long-term in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.
The funds available under the 2012 Credit Facility may be used for general corporate purposes, the financing of certain acquisitions and the payment of transaction fees and expenses related to such acquisitions. Under the 2012 Credit Facility, we may borrow, repay and reborrow funds under the revolving loan facility until its maturity on November 21, 2017, at which time the revolving facility will terminate, and all outstanding loans, together with all accrued and unpaid interest, must be repaid. Amounts not borrowed under the revolving facility will be subject to a commitment fee, to be paid in arrears on the last day of each fiscal quarter, ranging from 0.15% to 0.35% per annum depending on our leverage ratio as of the most recently ended fiscal quarter. The term loan will be repaid in quarterly installments, with the last quarterly payment to be made at September 29, 2017, with the remaining outstanding balance being due and payable on November 21, 2017. On an annualized basis, the amortization of the term loan is as follows: 5%, 5%, 10%, 10%, and 70% for years one through five respectively. The term loan may be prepaid in whole or in part, subject to certain minimum thresholds, without penalty or premium. Amounts repaid or prepaid with respect to the term loan facility may not be reborrowed.
We may borrow funds under the 2012 Credit Facility in U.S. Dollars, Euros or in certain other agreed currencies, and borrowings will bear interest, at our option, at either: (i) a floating per annum base rate based on the administrative agent's prime rate or other agreed-upon rate, depending on the currency borrowed, plus a margin of between 0.00% and 1.00%, depending on our leverage ratio as of the most recently ended fiscal quarter, or (ii) a reserve-adjusted fixed per annum rate based on LIBOR, EURIBOR, or other agreed-upon rate, depending on the currency borrowed, plus a margin of between 1.00% and 2.00%, depending on our leverage ratio as of the most recently ended fiscal quarter. Interest will be paid on the last day of each fiscal quarter with respect to borrowings bearing interest based on a floating rate, or on the last day of an interest period, but at least every three months, with respect to borrowings bearing interest at a fixed rate. Our obligations under the 2012 Credit Facility are guaranteed by several of our domestic subsidiaries.
The 2012 Credit Facility contains various customary representations and warranties by us, which include customary use of materiality, material adverse effect and knowledge qualifiers. The 2012 Credit Facility also contains customary affirmative and negative covenants including, among other requirements, negative covenants that restrict our ability to dispose of assets, create liens, incur indebtedness, repurchase stock, pay dividends, make acquisitions and make investments. Further, the 2012 Credit Facility contains financial covenants that require the maintenance of minimum interest coverage and maximum leverage ratios.

Specifically, we must maintain as of the end of each fiscal quarter a ratio of (a) EBITDA (as defined in the 2012 Credit Facility) to (b) interest expenses for the most recently ended period of four fiscal quarters of not less than 3.5 to 1. We must also maintain, at the end of each fiscal quarter, a ratio of (x) total indebtedness to (y) EBITDA (as defined in the 2012 Credit Facility) for the most recently ended period of four fiscal quarters of not greater than the applicable ratio set forth in the table below; provided, that on the completion of a material acquisition, we may increase the applicable ratio in the table below by 0.25 for the fiscal quarter during which such acquisition occurred and each of the three subsequent fiscal quarters.

We were in compliance with these restrictive covenants as of the first quarter of fiscal 2013.
The 2012 Credit Facility contains events of default that include, among others, non-payment of principal, interest or fees, breach of covenants, inaccuracy of representations and warranties, cross defaults to certain other indebtedness, bankruptcy and insolvency events, material judgments and events constituting a change of control. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an event of default, interest on the obligations will accrue at an increased rate and the lenders may accelerate our obligations under the 2012 Credit Facility, however that acceleration will be automatic in the case of bankruptcy and insolvency events of default.
The weighted average interest rate on the current portion of our our long-term debt outstanding under the 2012 Credit Facility and 2011 Uncommitted Facility was 1.66% and 1.96% at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2013 and fiscal year end 2012, respectively. The interest rate on our non-current debt outstanding under the 2012 Credit Facility was 1.89% and 1.96% at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2013 and fiscal year end 2012, respectively.
RECONCILIATION OF GAAP TO NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
Our non-GAAP measures are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP measures. The non-GAAP financial measures included in the tables below as well as detailed explanations to the adjustments to comparable GAAP measures, are set forth below:

Non-GAAP gross margin
We believe our investors benefit by understanding our non-GAAP gross margin as a way of understanding how product mix, pricing decisions and manufacturing costs influence our business. Non-GAAP gross margin excludes restructuring costs, amortization of purchased intangible assets, stock-based compensation and amortization of acquisition-related inventory step-up from GAAP gross margin. We believe that these exclusions offer investors additional information that may be useful to view trends in our gross margin performance.
Non-GAAP operating expenses
We believe this measure is important to investors evaluating our non-GAAP spending in relation to revenue. Non-GAAP operating expenses exclude restructuring costs, amortization of purchased intangible assets, stock-based compensation and acquisition costs associated with external and incremental costs resulting directly from merger and acquisition activities such as legal, due diligence, and integration costs from GAAP operating expenses. We believe that these exclusions offer investors supplemental information to facilitate comparison of our operating expenses to our prior results.
Non-GAAP operating income
We believe our investors benefit by understanding our non-GAAP operating income trends which are driven by revenue, gross margin, and spending. Non-GAAP operating income excludes restructuring costs, amortization of purchased intangible assets, stock-based compensation, amortization of acquisition-related inventory step-up and acquisition costs associated with external and incremental costs resulting directly from merger and acquisition activities such as legal, due diligence, and integration costs. We believe that these exclusions offer an alternative means for our investors to evaluate current operating performance compared to results of other periods.
Non-GAAP non-operating income (expense), net
We believe this measure helps investors evaluate our non-operating income trends. Non-GAAP non-operating income (expense), net excludes acquisition and divestiture gains associated with unusual acquisition related items such as adjustments to the fair

Table of Contents

value of earn-out liabilities and gains or losses related to the acquisition or sale of certain businesses and investments. These gains and losses are specific to particular acquisitions and divestitures and vary significantly in amount and timing. Non-GAAP non-operating income (expense), net also excludes foreign exchange losses specifically associated with a hedge for one of our acquisitions. We believe that these exclusions provide investors with a supplemental view of our ongoing financial results.
Non-GAAP income tax provision
Non-GAAP items tax effected adjusts the provision for income taxes to reflect the effect of certain non-GAAP items on non-GAAP net income. We believe this information is useful to investors because it provides for consistent treatment of the excluded items in our non-GAAP presentation.
Non-GAAP net income
This measure provides a supplemental view of net income trends which are driven by non-GAAP income before taxes and our non-GAAP tax rate. Non-GAAP net income excludes restructuring costs, amortization of purchased intangible assets, stock-based compensation, amortization of acquisition-related inventory step-up, acquisition and divestiture costs, a foreign exchange loss from a hedge associated with one of our acquisitions, and non-GAAP tax adjustments from GAAP net income. We believe our investors benefit from understanding these exclusions and from an alternative view of our net income performance as compared to our past net income performance.
Non-GAAP diluted net income per share
We believe our investors benefit by understanding our non-GAAP operating performance as reflected in a per share calculation as a way of measuring non-GAAP operating performance by ownership in the company. Non-GAAP diluted net income per share excludes restructuring costs, amortization of purchased intangible assets, stock-based compensation, amortization of acquisition-related inventory step-up, acquisition and divestiture costs, a foreign exchange loss from a hedge associated with one of our acquisitions, and non-GAAP tax adjustments from GAAP diluted net income per share. We believe that these exclusions offer investors a useful view of our diluted net income per share as compared to our past diluted net income per share.
Non-GAAP operating leverage
We believe this information is beneficial to investors as a measure of how much incremental revenue is contributed to our operating income. Non-GAAP operating leverage is the increase in non-GAAP operating income as a percentage of the increase in revenue. We believe that this information offers investors supplemental information to evaluate our current performance and to compare to our past non-GAAP operating leverage.
Non-GAAP segment operating income
Non-GAAP segment operating income excludes stock-based compensation from GAAP segment operating income. We believe this information is useful to investors because some may exclude stock-based compensation as an alternative view when assessing trends in the operating income of our segments.
These non-GAAP measures can be used to evaluate our historical and prospective financial performance, as well as our performance relative to competitors. We believe some of our investors track our "core operating performance" as a means of evaluating our performance in the ordinary, ongoing, and customary course of our operations. Core operating performance excludes items that are non-cash, not expected to recur or not reflective of ongoing financial results. Management also believes that looking at our core operating performance provides a supplemental way to provide consistency in period to period comparisons. Accordingly, management excludes from non-GAAP those items relating to restructuring, amortization of purchased intangible assets, stock based compensation, amortization of acquisition-related inventory step-up, acquisition and divestiture costs, a foreign exchange loss from a hedge associated with one of our acquisitions, and non-GAAP tax adjustments. For detailed explanations of the adjustments made to comparable GAAP measures, see items (A) - ( I ) following the tables below.

A.
Restructuring costs. Included in our GAAP presentation of cost of sales and operating expenses, restructuring costs recorded are primarily for employee compensation resulting from reductions in employee headcount in connection with our company restructurings. We exclude restructuring costs from our non-GAAP measures because we believe they do not reflect expected future operating expenses, they are not indicative of our core operating performance, and they are not meaningful in comparisons to our past operating performance. We have incurred  restructuring expense in each of the last three years however the amount incurred can vary significantly based on whether a restructuring has occurred in the period and the timing of headcount reductions.

Table of Contents

B.
Amortization of purchased intangible assets. Included in our GAAP presentation of gross margin and operating expenses is amortization of purchased intangible assets. US GAAP accounting requires that intangible assets are recorded at fair value and amortized over their useful lives. Consequently, the timing and size of our acquisitions will cause our operating results to vary from period to period, making a comparison to past performance difficult for investors. This accounting treatment may cause differences when comparing our results to companies that grow internally because the fair value assigned to the intangible assets acquired through acquisition may significantly exceed the equivalent expenses that a company may incur for similar efforts when performed internally. Furthermore, the useful life that we expense our intangible assets over may be substantially different from the time period that an internal growth company incurs and recognizes such expenses. We believe that by excluding the amortization of purchased intangible assets, which primarily represents technology and/or customer relationships already developed, it provides an alternative way for investors to compare our operations pre-acquisition to those post-acquisitions and to those of our competitors that have pursued internal growth strategies. However, we note that companies that grow internally will incur costs to develop intangible assets that will be expensed in the period incurred which may make a direct comparison more difficult.    
C.
Stock-based compensation. Included in our GAAP presentation of cost of sales and operating expenses, stock-based compensation consists of expenses for employee stock options and awards and purchase rights under our employee stock purchase plan. We exclude stock-based compensation expense from our non-GAAP measures because some investors may view it as not reflective of our core operating performance as it is a non-cash expense. For the first quarter of fiscal 2013 and 2012, stock-based compensation was allocated as follows:

D.
Amortization of acquisition-related inventory step-up. The purchase accounting entries associated with our business acquisitions require us to record inventory at its fair value, which is sometimes greater than the previous book value of the inventory. Included in our GAAP presentation of cost of sales, the increase in inventory value is amortized to cost of sales over the period that the related product is sold. We exclude inventory step-up amortization from our non-GAAP measures because it is a non-cash expense that we do not believe is indicative of our ongoing operating results. We further believe that excluding this item from our non-GAAP results is useful to investors in that it allows for period-over-period comparability.
