NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
Note 1. Basis of Presentation and Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
The condensed consolidated financial statements of Symmetricom, Inc. (Symmetricom, we,
us, the Company, or our) included herein are unaudited and reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of the management, necessary for a fair presentation
of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. In presenting the financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (US GAAP), management makes
certain estimates and assumptions that impact the amounts reported and related disclosures. Estimates, by their nature, are judgments based upon available information. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes
thereto included in Symmetricoms Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended July 1, 2012. The results of operations for the three and six months ended December 30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of the results to
be anticipated for the entire fiscal year ending June 30, 2013.
The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of
July 1, 2012 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by US GAAP for complete financial statements.
Fiscal Quarter
Our fiscal quarter is 13 weeks ending on the Sunday closest to the end of the calendar quarter.
Note 2. Financial Instruments
We account for certain assets and liabilities at fair value. The hierarchy below lists three levels of fair value based
on the extent to which inputs used in measuring fair value is observable in the market. We categorize each of our fair value measurements in one of these three levels based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value
measurement in its entirety. These levels are:
|
|
|
Level 1inputs are based upon unadjusted quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets;
|
|
|
|
Level 2inputs are based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in
markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; and
|
|
|
|
Level 3inputs are generally unobservable and typically reflect managements estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in
pricing the asset or liability. The fair values are therefore determined using model-based techniques that include option pricing models, discounted cash flow models, and similar techniques.

Level 1 and 2 financial assets:
The fair values of our money market funds and mutual funds were derived from quoted market prices as active markets for these instruments
exist. The fair values of corporate debt securities and government sponsored enterprise debt securities were derived from non-binding market consensus prices that are corroborated by observable market data.

Contingent consideration on acquired business is measured at fair value on a recurring basis
using Level 3 inputs as defined in the fair value hierarchy. The following table presents certain information about the significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement for the contingent consideration measured at fair value on a
recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs:
|
|
|
|
|
Description
|
|
Valuation Techniques
|
|
Significant Unobservable Inputs
|
Liabilities: Contingent consideration
|
|
Present value of a Probability Weighted Earnout model using an appropriate discount rate.
|
|
Estimate of future revenue associated with acquired technology. Revenue of $4.9 million over a range of 2.5 years to 3 years.
|
An increase in the revenue growth percentage could result in a significantly higher estimated fair value
of the contingent consideration liability. Alternatively, a decrease in the revenue growth percentage could result in a significantly lower estimated fair value of contingent consideration liability.
The fair value of contingent consideration was derived from a probability weighted earn-out model of future contingent payments. The cash
payments, if any, are expected to be made quarterly, based upon revenue generated from the acquired product line, starting in fiscal 2013. No payments were made in the first six months of fiscal 2013. The valuation of this liability is estimated
based upon a collaborative effort of the Companys marketing and finance departments. These future contingent payments are calculated based on estimates of future revenue attributable to the acquired technology (Note 12). To obtain a current
valuation of these projected cash flows, an expected present value technique is applied using an appropriate discount rate. The cash flow projections and discount rates will be reviewed quarterly and updated as and when necessary. Potential
valuation adjustments will be made as future revenue projections are updated which affect the calculation of the related contingent consideration payments. These adjustments will be recorded in the income statement.

The aggregate intrinsic value in the preceding table represents the total pre-tax value of
stock options outstanding as of December 30, 2012, based on our common stock closing price of $5.66 on December 28, 2012, which would have been received by the option holders had all option holders exercised their options as of that date.
The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the second quarter of fiscal 2013 and 2012 was approximately $141,000
and $54,000, respectively.
For the second quarter of fiscal 2013 and 2012, the weighted-average estimated fair value of
options granted was $2.92 and $2.43 per share, respectively. For the six months ended December 30, 2012 and January 1, 2012, the weighted-average estimated fair value of options granted was $2.92 and $2.43 per share, respectively. Our
calculations were made using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The fair value of Symmetricom stock-based awards to employees was estimated assuming no expected dividend and the weighted-average assumptions for the three and six months ended
December 30, 2012 and January 1, 2012 as follows:

We calculated the stock-based compensation expense in the second quarter of fiscal 2013 and 2012, using
an estimated annual forfeiture rate of 5.6% and 7.2%, respectively. At December 30, 2012, the total cumulative compensation cost related to unvested stock-based awards granted to employees, directors and consultants under the Companys
stock option plans, but not yet recognized, was approximately $6.6 million, net of estimated forfeitures of $1.1 million. This cost will be amortized on an accelerated method basis over a period of approximately 1.4 years and will be adjusted for
subsequent changes in estimated forfeitures.
The following table shows total stock-based compensation costs included in the
condensed consolidated statements of operations:

The above table includes expense of $0.2 million and $0.3 million, relating to the employee stock
purchase plan (ESPP) for the second quarter and first six months of both fiscal 2013 and 2012.
Performance Awards
In the second quarter of fiscal 2012, the Company communicated its intention to grant 110,000 shares of performance
based restricted stock to its executive management employees subject to the achievement of certain financial performance targets. The number of stock awards that will ultimately be granted depends on actual business performance measured for fiscal
2012 against certain targets for revenue and profitability for the Companys business as well as continued employment with the Company. During the first quarter of fiscal 2013, 92,620 restricted shares were granted upon achievement of financial
performance targets.
In the second quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company communicated its intention to grant 103,000 shares of
performance based restricted stock to its executive management employees subject to the achievement of certain financial performance targets. The number of stock awards that will ultimately be granted depends on actual business performance measured
for fiscal 2013 against certain targets for revenue and profitability for the Companys business as well as continued employment with the Company.
13
Stock Repurchases
During the second quarter of fiscal 2013, we repurchased 257,927 shares of common stock pursuant to our repurchase program for an
aggregate price of approximately $1.6 million. Further, we repurchased 77,234 shares in the second quarter of fiscal 2013 for an aggregate price of approximately $0.5 million to cover the cost of employee income taxes on vested restricted stock and
option exercises.
As of December 30, 2012, the total number of shares available for repurchase under the repurchase
program authorized by the Board of Directors was approximately 1.9 million.

During the first six months of fiscal 2013, we incurred approximately $1.1 million severance, consulting
and outside service charges related to closing of research and development operations in China.
The lease loss accruals are
subject to periodic revisions based on current market estimates. The lease loss accruals as of December 30, 2012 will be paid over the next five years.
Note 9. Net Income (Loss) Per Share
Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common
shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and common equivalent shares from dilutive stock options, employee stock
purchase plan and restricted stock using the treasury stock method, except when antidilutive.

Unvested restricted stock is subject to repurchase by the Company and therefore is not included in the
calculation of the weighted-average shares outstanding for basic earnings per share.
The following common stock equivalents
were excluded from the earnings (loss) per share calculation as their effect would have been anti-dilutive:

Note 10. Litigation and Contingencies
LitigationThe Company is or was a party to the following material litigations:
Former Texas Facility Environmental Cleanup
We formerly leased a tract of land in Texas for our operations. Those operations involved the use of solvents and, at the end of the lease, we remediated an area where the solvents had been deposited
on the ground and obtained regulatory approval for that remedial activity. In 1996, an environmental investigation of the property detected those same contaminants in groundwater in excess of then current regulatory standards. The
groundwater contamination has migrated to some adjacent properties. We have entered into the Texas Natural Resource Conservation Commissions Voluntary Cleanup Program (the Voluntary Cleanup Program) to obtain regulatory
approval for closure of this site and a release from liability to the State of Texas for subsequent landowners and lenders. We have notified adjacent property owners affected by the contamination of participation in the Voluntary Cleanup
Program. On May 20, 2004, we received a demand from the owner of several adjacent lots for damages in the amount of $1.3 million, as well as seeking an indemnity for the contamination and a promise to remediate the
contamination. On March 14, 2006, the adjacent property owner filed suit in Probate Court No. 1, Travis County, Texas (Anna B. Miller, Individually and as Executrix of the Estate of Robert L. Miller, et al. vs.
Austron, Inc., et al.), seeking damages. Symmetricom has not yet been served in this matter, but we intend to defend this lawsuit vigorously. We are continuing to work on the remediation of the formerly leased site
as well as the adjacent properties, and have also taken steps to begin work on the Miller property. As of December 30, 2012, we had an accrual of $50,000 for remediation costs and other ongoing monitoring costs which has been included
within other accrued liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheet.
Michael E. McNeil, et al.
vs. Jason Book, et al.
On or around May 25, 2010, Symmetricom was served with the first amended complaint in the case
of Michael E. McNeil, et al. vs. Jason Book, et al. (Case No. CV165643) filed in Santa Cruz County Superior Court, California. The first amended complaint added Symmetricom and several other parties to the lawsuit, which had been originally filed in
2009 by plaintiffs against their former attorney for legal malpractice in connection with certain settlement agreements in 1999 between plaintiffs and Datum (a company acquired by Symmetricom) in which they assigned to Datum certain
intellectual property rights. The complaint has since been
15
amended for the second time and Symmetricom was served with the second amended complaint on or around January 7, 2011. The second amended complaint alleges several causes of action,
including claims against Symmetricom for contract rescission, breach of contract, conversion and unjust enrichment, and seeks unspecified monetary damages along with equitable relief. Management believes that this lawsuit has no merit or basis
and intends to defend this lawsuit vigorously and as a result, no accrual has been made in relation to this litigation. Management believes the final outcome of this matter will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position and
results of operations.
General
Under the indemnification provisions of our standard sales contracts, we agree to defend the customer against third party claims asserting infringement of certain intellectual property rights, which may
include patents, copyrights, trademarks or trade secrets, and to pay any judgments entered on such claims against the reseller/customer. The exposure to us under these indemnification provisions is generally limited to the total amount paid by the
customer under the agreement. However, certain agreements include indemnification provisions that could potentially expose us to losses in excess of the amount received under the agreement. To date, there have been no claims under such
indemnification provisions. We believe the estimated fair value of these indemnification agreements is not material.
We are
also a party to certain other claims in the normal course of our operations. While the results of these claims cannot be predicted with any certainty, we believe that the final outcome of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on our
consolidated financial position and results of operations.
Note 11. Business Segment Information
Symmetricom is organized into two operating segments:
Communications
and
Government and Enterprise
. These
two operating segments are our reporting segments. The Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM), as defined by authoritative accounting guidance on Segment Reporting, is our President and Chief Executive Officer (CEO). Our CEO allocates resources to
and assesses the performance of each operating segment using information about its revenue and operating income (loss) before interest and taxes.
With the exception of intangible assets, we do not identify or allocate assets by operating segment, nor does our CEO evaluate operating segments using discrete asset information. We do not allocate
restructuring charges, interest and other income, interest expense, or income taxes to operating segments.
The following
describes our two reporting segments:
Communications
Our Communications business supplies timing technologies and services for worldwide communications infrastructure. Products include
primary reference sources, synchronization distribution systems and embedded components and software, all of which support the timing and synchronization requirements of telecommunications and cable networks and equipment.
Government and Enterprise
Our Government and Enterprise business provides time technology products for aerospace/defense, IT infrastructure and science and metrology applications. Precision time and frequency systems enable a
range of critical operations, including the international time scale, global navigation, the management of power grids, synchronization of complex control systems, and signals intelligence for securing communications in remote and hostile
environments.

12. Business Combination
During the third quarter of fiscal 2012, the Company acquired a product line (existing technology, customer
relationships, fixed assets and employees) to enhance the Companys product offerings in embedded timing and synchronization solutions for residential small cell solutions. This transaction was recorded as an acquisition of a business. The
transaction price was approximately $2.4 million of which $1.4 million was paid in cash and approximately $1.0 million is contingent consideration payable as a royalty upon future sales of such products.
The fair value of the contingent consideration arrangement at the acquisition date was $0.5 million. We estimated the fair value of the
contingent consideration using a probability-weighted discounted cash flow model (See Note 2). The purchase price was determined as follows (amounts in thousands):

The fair value of the acquired non-monetary assets, summarized above, were derived from significant
unobservable inputs (Level 3 inputs) determined by the Company based on market analysis, income analysis (discounted cash flow model), or cost approach. The fair value of fixed assets acquired was determined using market data for
similar assets. The fair value of existing technology was determined using a discounted cash flow model from cash flow projections prepared by management, including estimated undiscounted cash flows of approximately $3 million during the five to six
year period after the acquisition, and a weighted average cost of capital. The fair value of customer relationships was determined using a cost approach which includes an estimate of time and expenses required to recreate the intangible asset.
During the second quarter of fiscal 2013, the Company acquired a product line (existing technology, inventories, and support
from the former owner) to enhance the Companys product offerings of test and measurement solutions. This transaction has been recorded as an acquisition of a business. The transaction price was approximately $0.5 million payable in cash in
periodic installments to the former owner. The purchase price was entirely allocated to existing technology (the acquired intangible asset) which has an estimated useful life of 5 years.
Pro forma results of operations have not been presented because the effect of the business combinations described in this Note was not
material to our condensed consolidated results of operations. Revenue and earnings per share for the acquired businesses from the date of acquisition through December 30, 2012, were not material.

13. Subsequent Event
On January 21, 2013, the Companys Board of Directors approved a restructuring action to reduce operating
costs while retaining focus on its strategic initiatives. The Company plans to reduce the size of its workforce by approximately 20 positions. The reductions will begin in January and are expected to be complete by August 2013. In conjunction with
the headcount reduction, the Company will further reduce the size of its facility presence in Santa Rosa, CA. The Company expects to incur restructuring charges in the range of $1.5 million to $1.8 million in connection with the plan. This includes
$1.0 million to $1.3 million in expected charges for one-time termination benefits and $0.5 million associated with the Companys reduction of occupied commercial space in Santa Rosa, CA. Upon completion, Symmetricom expects these restructuring
actions to reduce annual costs by approximately $4.0 million.
