EXPLANATORY NOTE
SOLECTRON CORPORATION
EXPLANATORY NOTE
Solectron Corporation (the Company) has restated its
condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the
three-month period ended November 26, 2004, the
consolidated annual financial statements for the fiscal years
2004, 2003 and 2002, quarterly financial data for each of the
quarters within fiscal 2004 and 2003, and selected financial
data for fiscal years 2001 and 2000 (the
Restatement). The determination to restate these
financial statements and selected financial information was made
as a result of managements identification of errors
primarily related to the untimely analysis of financial
statement balances for fiscal years 2004, 2003 and 2002. These
errors were identified through the companys
self-assessment and self-testing of its internal control over
financial reporting under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley
Act of 2002. Although the Company believes such errors were
immaterial to its financial statements and selected financial
information for each such prior period and no evidence of fraud
was noted, under relevant Securities and Exchange Commission
accounting interpretations a restatement of the financial
statements for such prior periods to correct immaterial
misstatements therein is required if the aggregate correcting
adjustment related to such errors would be material to the
financial statements of the current fiscal period. Further
information on these adjustments and reclassifications can be
found in Note 2, Restatement of Financial
Statements to the accompanying condensed consolidated
financial statements.
This Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-Q/ A (the
Form 10-Q/ A) to the Companys Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q for the three-month period ended
November 26, 2004, initially filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the SEC) on January 5,
2005 (the Original Filing), is being filed to
reflect restatements of the Companys consolidated balance
sheet as of November 30, 2004 and the statements of
operations, stockholders equity, comprehensive income
(loss) and cash flows for the three months ended
November 30, 2004 and the notes related thereto. For a more
detailed description of these restatements, see Note 2,
Restatement of Financial Statements to the
accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and the
section entitled Restatement in Managements
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations contained in this Form 10-Q/ A.
For the convenience of the reader, this Form 10-Q/ A sets
forth the Original Filing in its entirety. However, this
Form 10-Q/ A only amends and restates Items 1, 2,
3, and 4 of Part I of the Original Filing, in each case,
solely as a result of, and to reflect, the Restatement, and no
other information in the Original Filing is amended hereby. The
foregoing items have not been updated to reflect other events
occurring after the Original Filing or to modify or update those
disclosures affected by subsequent events. In addition, pursuant
to the rules of the SEC, Item 6 of Part II of the
Original Filing has been amended to contain the currently dated
certifications from the Companys Chief Executive Officer
and Chief Financial Officer, as required by Sections 302
and 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The certifications of
the Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer are attached to this Form 10-Q/ A as
Exhibits 31.1, 31.2, 32.1, and 32.2.
Except for the foregoing amended information, this
Form 10-Q/ A continues to speak as of the date of the
Original Filing, and the Company has not updated the disclosure
contained herein to reflect events that occurred at a later
date. Other events occurring after the filing of the Original
Filing or other disclosures necessary to reflect subsequent
events have been or will be addressed in the Companys
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period
ended February 25, 2005, which is being filed concurrently
with the filing of this Form 10-Q/ A, and any reports filed
with the SEC subsequent to the date of this filing.
Concurrently with the filing of this Form 10-Q/ A, the
Company is filing (i) an amendment on Form 10-K/ A
(the 2004 10-K/ A) to its Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 27, 2004
(the 2004 10-K) to provide restatements of the
financial statements and financial data as of and for the
periods included in the 2004 10-K, and (ii) a Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period
2
ended February 25, 2005. With the exception of the 2004
10-K/ A, the Company has not amended and does not intend to
amend its previously filed Annual Reports on Form 10-K or
its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the periods
affected by the Restatement that ended prior to August 27,
2004. For this reason, the consolidated financial statements,
report of independent registered public accounting firm and
related financial information for the affected periods contained
in such reports should no longer be relied upon.

NOTE 1 |
Basis of Presentation and Recent Accounting Pronouncements |
The accompanying financial data as of November 30, 2004 and
for the three-months ended November 30, 2004 and 2003 has
been prepared by Solectron, without audit, pursuant to the rules
and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included
in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules
and regulations. The August 31, 2004 condensed consolidated
balance sheet was derived from audited consolidated financial
statements, but does not include all disclosures required by
generally accepted accounting principles. However, Solectron
believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the
information presented not misleading. These condensed
consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction
with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto
included in Solectrons Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the fiscal year ended August 31, 2004.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include
normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present a fair
consolidated statement of financial position as of
November 30, 2004, the results of operations, comprehensive
income (loss) and cash flows for the three months ended
November 30, 2004 and 2003 have been made. The consolidated
results of operations for the three months ended
November 30, 2004 are not necessarily indicative of the
operating results for the full fiscal year or any future periods.
Solectrons first quarters of fiscal 2005 and 2004 ended on
November 26, 2004 and November 28, 2003, respectively.
Solectrons fiscal year ended on August 27, 2004. For
clarity of presentation, Solectron has indicated its first
quarters as having ended on November 30 and its fiscal year
as having ended on August 31.
Selling, general and administrative expense includes
$6.8 million and $4.8 million of research and
development expenses for the first quarters of fiscal 2005 and
2004, respectively.
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities
at the date of the consolidated financial statements and
reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements |
In September 2004, the EITF reached a consensus on Issue
No. 04-8, The Effect of Contingently Convertible Debt
on Diluted Earnings per Share. EITF 04-8 requires
that all issued securities that have embedded conversion
features that are contingently exercisable upon the occurrence
of a market-price condition should be in the calculation of
diluted earnings per share, regardless of whether the market
price trigger has been met. EITF 04-8 is effective for
reporting periods ending after December 15, 2004. The
adoption of EITF 04-8 will add 46.6 million shares to
the diluted EPS calculation.
In November 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
(FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards (SFAS) No. 151, Inventory
Costs, an amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4.
SFAS 151, amends ARB No. 43, Chapter 4, to
clarify that abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight,
handling costs, and wasted material (spoilage) should be
recognized as current period charges. In addition, SFAS 151
requires that allocation of fixed production overhead to the
cost of conversion be based on the normal capacity of the
production facilities. The provision of SFAS 151 shall be
effective for Solectron beginning on September 1, 2005.
Solectron is currently evaluating whether this statement will
have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

SOLECTRON CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial
Statements (Continued)
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123R,
Share Based Payment: An Amendment of FASB Statements
No. 123 and 95. This statement requires that the cost
resulting from all share-based payment transactions be
recognized in the consolidated financial statements. This
statement is effective as of the beginning of the first interim
or annual reporting period that begins after June 15, 2005.
Solectron is currently evaluating the impact of this statement
on its consolidated financial statements.
As described in the Explanatory Note in the forepart
of this report and in the 2004 10-K/ A, we have restated our
consolidated financial statements for the fiscal years 2002
through 2004 and for the first quarter of 2005. This Note should
be read in conjunction with Note 2, Restatement of
Financial Statements in the notes to our consolidated
financial statements included in Item 8, Financial
Statements and Supplementary Data of the 2004 10-K/ A,
which we are filing concurrently with this Form 10-Q/ A and
which provides further information on the nature and impact of
the Restatement.
The determination to restate these financial statements was made
as a result of managements identification of errors
primarily related to the untimely analysis and reconciliation of
financial statement balances for fiscal years 2002, 2003 and
2004 through the Companys self-assessment and self-testing
of its internal control over financial reporting under
Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.
In the Restatement, we have corrected errors primarily related
to unreconciled differences in intercompany balances, foreign
currency translations, accounts payable, accrued liabilities,
fixed assets, other assets, deferred tax assets, deferred tax
liabilities, interest expense, inventory, goodwill and
intangible assets. In addition, there have been
reclassifications of certain balance sheet accounts.
Certain amounts in other notes to our condensed consolidated
financial statements within this Form 10-Q/ A have been
restated to reflect the Restatement adjustments.
The Restatement increased our net income for the first quarter
of fiscal 2005 by $2.3 million. The Restatement increased
our net loss from continuing operations before income taxes and
our net loss for the first quarter of fiscal 2004 by
$6.6 million and $5.7 million, respectively. The
impact of the Restatement on the condensed consolidated
statements of operations for the three months ended
November 30, 2004 is shown in an accompanying table.
The primary impact on the historical consolidated balance sheets
and consolidated statements of cash flows related to the
adjustments mentioned above. The impact of the Restatement on
our condensed consolidated balance sheets and statements of cash
flows is shown in the accompanying tables.

Stock-Based Compensation |
As it is permitted by Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards (SFAS) No. 123, Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation, amended by
SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation Transition and Disclosure,
Solectron accounts for its employee stock plans, which generally
consist of fixed stock option plans and an employee stock
purchase plan, using the intrinsic value method under APB
Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to
Employees, and related interpretations. In general, where
the exercise price of options granted under these plans is equal
to the market price of the underlying common stock on the grant
date, no stock-based employee compensation expense is
recognized. In certain situations, under these plans, options to
purchase shares of common stock may be granted at less than fair
market value, which results in compensation expense equal to the
difference between the market value on the date of grant and the
purchase price. This expense is recognized over the vesting
period of the options and included in operations. The table
below sets out the pro forma amounts of net income (loss) and
net income (loss) per share that would have resulted for all
fiscal periods presented, if Solectron accounted for its
employee stock plans under the fair value recognition provisions
of SFAS No. 123.

right is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes
option pricing model. The assumptions used to value the option
grants and purchase rights are stated below.

During fiscal 2003, Solectron provided restricted stock awards
to certain eligible executives. These restricted shares are not
transferable until fully vested and are subject to the Company
Repurchase Option for all unvested shares upon certain early
termination events and also subject to accelerated vesting in
certain circumstances. During the three months ended
November 30, 2004 and 2003, compensation expense related to
the restricted stock awards amounted to approximately
$0.6 million for each period.
During fiscal 2004 and the first quarter of fiscal 2005,
Solectron issued stock options to certain executives at a price
below the market value on the day of the stock option grant.
Compensation expense resulting from the difference between the
market value on the date of the discounted stock option grant
and the purchase price is being amortized over the vesting
period. The compensation expense associated with all discounted
stock options issued by Solectron is not significant.

Commitments and Contingencies |
Solectron has synthetic lease agreements relating to four
manufacturing sites in continuing operations. The synthetic
leases have expiration dates in August 2007. At the end of the
lease terms, Solectron has an option, subject to certain
conditions, to purchase or to cause a third party to purchase
the facilities subject to the synthetic leases for the
Termination Value, which approximates the
lessors original cost for each facility, or may market the
property to a third party at a different price. Solectron is
entitled to any proceeds from a sale of the properties to third
parties in excess of the Termination Value and is liable to the
lessor for any shortfall not to exceed 85% of the Termination
Value. Solectron has provided loans to the lessor equaling
approximately 85% of the Termination Value for each synthetic
lease. These loans are repayable solely from the sale of the
properties to third parties in the future, are subordinated to
the amounts payable to the lessor at the end of the synthetic
leases, and may be credited against the Termination Values
payable if Solectron purchases the properties. The approximate
aggregate Termination Values and loan amounts were
$101.3 million and $86.1 million, respectively, as of
November 30, 2004.
In addition, cash collateral of $15.2 million is pledged
for the difference between the aggregate Termination Values and
the loan amounts. Each lease agreement contains various
affirmative and financial covenants. A default under a lease,
including violation of these covenants, may accelerate the
termination date of the arrangement. Solectron was in compliance
with all applicable covenants as of November 30, 2004.
Monthly lease payments are generally based on the Termination
Value and 30-day LIBOR index (1.99% as of November 30,
2004) plus an interest-rate margin, which may vary depending
upon Solectrons Moodys Investors Services and
Standard and Poors ratings and are allocated between the
lessor and Solectron based on the proportion of the loan amount
to the Termination Value for each synthetic lease.
16
SOLECTRON CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial
Statements (Continued)
During fiscal 2004, Solectron determined that it is probable
that the expected fair value of the properties under the
synthetic lease agreements will be less than the Termination
Value at the end of the lease term. The accretion expense for
the quarter was approximately $1.1 million.
Solectron accounts for these synthetic lease arrangements as
operating leases in accordance with SFAS No. 13,
Accounting for Leases, as amended. Solectrons
loans to the lessor and cash collateral were included in other
long-term assets and restricted cash and restricted cash
equivalents, respectively, in the consolidated balance sheets.

Solectron is from time to time involved in various litigation
and legal matters, including the one described below. By
describing the particular matter set forth below, Solectron does
not intend to imply that it or its legal advisors have concluded
or believe that the outcome of this particular matter is or is
not likely to have a material adverse impact upon
Solectrons business or consolidated financial condition
and results of operations.
Solectron has settled the previously reported shareholder
derivative lawsuit entitled Lifshitz v. Cannon
et al., Case No. CV815693, filed in the
Santa Clara County, California Superior Court, on terms not
considered to be material to Solectron. Court approval of the
settlement terms was obtained on December 16, 2004.
On March 6, 2003, a putative shareholder class action
lawsuit was filed against Solectron and certain of its officers
in the United States District Court for the Northern District of
California alleging claims under Section 10(b) and 20(a) of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
Exchange Act), and Rule 10b-5 promulgated
thereunder. The case is entitled Abrams v. Solectron
Corporation et al., Case No. C-03-0986 CRB. The
complaint alleged that the defendants issued false and
misleading statements in certain press releases and SEC filings
issued between September 17, 2001 and September 26,
2002. In particular, plaintiff alleged that the defendants
failed to disclose and to properly account for excess and
obsolete inventory in the former Technology Solutions business
unit during the relevant time period. Additional complaints
making similar allegations were subsequently filed in the same
court, and pursuant to an order entered June 2, 2003, the
Court appointed lead counsel and plaintiffs to represent the
putative class in a single consolidated action. The Consolidated
Amended Complaint, filed September 8, 2003, alleges an
expanded class period of June 18, 2001 through
September 26, 2002, and purports to add a claim for
violation of Section 11 of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the Securities Act), on behalf of a
putative class of former shareholders of C-MAC Industries, Inc.,
who acquired Solectron stock pursuant to the October 19,
2001 Registration Statement filed in connection with
Solectrons acquisition of C-MAC Industries, Inc. In
addition, while the initial complaints focused on alleged
inventory issues at the former Technology Solutions business
unit, the Consolidated Amended Complaint adds allegations of
inadequate disclosure and failure to properly account for excess
and obsolete inventory at Solectrons other business units.
The complaint seeks an unspecified amount of damages on behalf
of the putative class. Solectron believes it has valid defenses
to the plaintiffs claims. There can be no assurance,
however, that the outcome of the lawsuit will be favorable to
17
SOLECTRON CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

Solectron or will not have a material adverse effect on
Solectrons business, consolidated financial condition and
results of operations. In addition, Solectron may be forced to
incur substantial litigation expenses in defending this
litigation.

NOTE 8 |
Segment Information and Geographic Information |
SFAS No. 131 Disclosure about Segments of an
Enterprise and Related Information established standards
for reporting information about operating segments in annual
consolidated financial statements and requires selected
information about operating segments in interim financial
reports issued to stockholders. It also established standards
for related disclosures about products and services, geographic
areas and major customers. Operating segments are defined as
components of an enterprise about which separate financial
information is available that is evaluated regularly by the
chief operating decision maker, or decision making group, in
deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance.
Solectrons chief operating decision maker is the Chief
Executive Officer. The Chief Executive Officer evaluates
financial information on a company-wide basis for purposes of
making decisions and assessing financial performance.
Accordingly, Solectron has one operating segment.

On February 6, 2002, Solectron issued an aggregate
principal amount of $500 million of 9.625% senior
notes due 2009. Solectron is required to pay interest on the
notes in cash on February 15 and August 15 of each
year. The indenture governing the terms of these notes contains
restrictive provisions, which limit Solectron and its
subsidiaries from making distributions on their capital stock,
investments, incurring debt, issuing preferred stock and
engaging in assets sales, among other provisions. As of
November 30, 2004, the carrying amount of the notes was
$498.1 million and the $16.8 million fair market value
of the interest rate swap (See Note 10, Financial
Instruments) were classified as long-term debt.
Additionally, Solectron was in compliance with the restrictive
provisions of the indenture at November 30, 2004.

0.5% Convertible Senior Notes due 2034 |
On February 17, 2004, Solectron issued $450 million of

denomination, to qualified buyers in reliance on Rule 144A
under the Securities Act. The notes are unsecured and
unsubordinated indebtedness of Solectron and will mature on
February 15, 2034. The notes are convertible into shares of
common stock of Solectron at any time prior to maturity, subject
to the terms of the notes.
Interest on the notes will be paid on February 15 and on
August 15 of each year. On or after February 20, 2011,
Solectron will have the option to redeem all or a portion of the
notes that have not been previously purchased, repurchased or
converted, at 100% of the principal amount of the notes to be
redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest and liquidated damages
owed, if any, up to, but excluding, the date of the purchase.
Holders of the notes may require Solectron to purchase all or a
portion of the notes for cash on each of February 15, 2011,
2014, 2019, 2024, and 2029 at a price equal to 100% of the
principal amount of the notes to be repurchased plus accrued and
unpaid interest, and liquidated damages owed, if any, up to, but
excluding, the date of repurchase. Holders will have the option,
subject to certain conditions, to require Solectron to
repurchase any notes held by such holder in the event of a
change in control, as defined, at a price of 100% of
the principal amount of the notes plus accrued and unpaid
interest and liquidated damages owed, if any, up to, but
excluding, the date of repurchase.
As of November 30, 2004, the carrying amount of the notes
of $450.0 million was classified as long-term debt.
In February 1996, Solectron issued $150 million aggregate
principal amount of senior notes. These notes are in
denominations and have a maturity value of $1,000 each and are
due on March 1, 2006. Interest is
19

payable semiannually at a rate of 7.375% per annum. The
notes may not be redeemed prior to maturity. As of
November 30, 2004, the carrying amount of the notes of
$150.0 million was classified as long-term debt.

Adjustable Conversion-Rate Equity Securities (ACES) |
At August 31, 2004, there were 2.6 million ACES units
remaining. Each ACES unit has a stated amount of $25.00 and
consisted of (a) a contract requiring the holder to
purchase, for $25.00, a number of shares of Solectron common
stock to be determined on November 15, 2004, based on the
average trading price of Solectrons common stock at that
time and certain specified settlement rates ranging from
2.1597 shares of Solectrons common stock per purchase
contract to 2.5484 shares of Solectrons common stock
per purchase contract (subject to certain anti-dilution
adjustments); and (b) a $25 principal amount of
7.97% subordinated debenture due 2006.
On November 15, 2004, Solectron issued 6.6 million
shares of its common stock at a settlement rate of
2.5484 shares per ACES unit as defined above. Solectron
received cash proceeds of $64.3 million which resulted in a
corresponding increase in additional paid in capital. The equity
component of the ACES has been settled. Accordingly, the
remaining obligation of the original ACES is the
7.97% debentures.
As of November 30, 2004, there was $63.1 million
outstanding of the 7.97% subordinate debentures due
November 2006 which were classified as long-term debt.

|
|
Liquid Yield Option Notes (LYONs) |
At November 30, 2004, Solectron has $9.3 million
aggregate accreted value of LYONs outstanding with an interest
rate of 2.75%. These notes are unsecured and unsubordinated
indebtedness of Solectron. Solectron will pay no interest prior
to maturity. Each note has a yield of 2.75% with a maturity
value of $1,000 on May 8, 2020. Each note is convertible at
any time by the holder to common shares at a conversion rate of
12.3309 shares per note. Holders will be able to require
Solectron to purchase all or a portion of their notes on
May 8, 2010, at a price of $761.00 per note.
Solectron, at its option, may redeem all or a portion of the
notes at any time on or after May 8, 2003. As of
November 30, 2004, the accreted value of the 2.75% LYONs is
classified as long-term debt on the condensed consolidated
balance sheet.

NOTE 10 |
Derivative Instruments |
|
|
|
Fair Value of Financial Instruments |
The fair value of Solectrons cash, cash equivalents,
accounts receivable, accounts payable and borrowings under lines
of credit approximates the carrying amount due to the relatively
short maturity of these items.
Solectron enters into foreign exchange forward contracts
intended to reduce the short-term impact of foreign currency
fluctuations on foreign currency receivables, investments and
payables. The gains and losses on the foreign exchange forward
contracts are intended to largely offset the transaction gains
and losses on the foreign currency receivables, investments,
payables, and indebtedness recognized in operating results.
Solectron does not enter into foreign exchange forward contracts
for speculative purposes. Solectrons foreign exchange
forward contracts related to current assets and liabilities are
generally three months or less in original maturity.
As of November 30, 2004, Solectron had outstanding foreign
exchange forward contracts with a total notional amount of
approximately $471.7 million related to continuing
operations.

SOLECTRON CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial
Statements (Continued)
Solectron uses interest rate swaps to hedge its mix of
short-term and long-term interest rate exposures resulting from
Solectrons debt obligations. As of November 30, 2004,
Solectron had an interest rate swap outstanding under which it
pays variable rates and receives fixed rates. The interest rate
swap has a total notional amount of $500 million, relating
to the 9.625% $500 million senior notes expiring on
February 15, 2009. Under the swap transaction, Solectron
pays an interest rate equal to the 3-month LIBOR rate plus a
fixed spread. In exchange, Solectron receives a fixed interest
rate of 9.625% on the $500 million. The swap effectively
replaces the fixed interest rate on all the 9.625% senior
notes with a variable interest rate. The swap is designated as a
fair value hedge under SFAS No. 133.
The fair value of the outstanding derivative referred to above
was not significant.
For all derivative transactions, Solectron is exposed to
counterparty credit risk to the extent that the counterparties
may not be able to meet their obligations towards Solectron. To
manage the counterparty risk, Solectron limits its derivative
transactions to those with major financial institutions.
Solectron does not expect to experience any material adverse
financial consequences as a result of default by
Solectrons counterparties.
Financial instruments that potentially subject Solectron to
concentrations of credit risk consist of cash, cash equivalents
and trade accounts receivable. Concentrations of credit risk in
accounts receivable resulting from sales to major customers are
discussed in Note 8, Segment Information and
Geographic Information. Solectron generally does not
require collateral for sales on credit. However, for customers
that have limited financial resources, Solectron may require
coverage for this risk including standby letters of credit,
prepayments and consignment of inventories. Solectron also
monitors extensions of credit and the financial condition of its
major customers.

NOTE 11 |
Intangible Assets |
Solectrons intangible assets, which are classified in
other assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets, are
categorized into three main classes: supply agreements,
intellectual property agreements and other. The intellectual
property agreements resulted from Solectrons acquisitions
of various IBM facilities. The other intangible assets consist
of miscellaneous acquisition related intangibles from
Solectrons various asset purchases.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2005, Solectron completed the
sale of its MicroTechnology division, for cash proceeds of
$30.0 million resulting in a $10.1 million pre-tax
gain which is included in operating (income)
expenses net for the quarter ended November 30,
2004 as disclosed above. As a result of this disposition,
Solectron transferred approximately $28.3 million from
accumulated foreign currency translation gains, included in
accumulated other comprehensive losses within Stockholders
Equity and recognized that amount as part of the pre-tax gain.
The sales agreement for this divesture provides for a possible
adjustment to the proceeds and gain based upon final settlement
of each divestures working capital at closing. Resolution
of this possible working capital adjustment and other
reconciling items pursuant to the sales agreement, if any, are
expected to be included in our fiscal 2005 second quarter
results.

SOLECTRON CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial

During fiscal 2004, Solectron completed the sale of the previous
six discontinued operations. During the first quarter of fiscal
2005, Solectron increased the net loss on disposal of those
discontinued operations by approximately $0.5 million
resulting from a few insignificant adjustments pursuant to the
terms of the disposal transaction. For the three months ended
November 30, 2004, the adjustment to the net loss on these
discontinued operations is recorded in operating (income)
expenses net as disclosed above.
The sales agreements for all seven divestitures contain certain
indemnification provisions under which Solectron may be required
to indemnify the buyer of the divested business for liabilities,
losses, or expenses arising out of breaches of covenants and
certain breaches of representations and warranties relating to
the condition of the business prior to and at the time of sale.
In aggregate, Solectron is contingently liable for up to
$94.8 million for a period of 12 to 24 months
subsequent to the completion of the sale. As of
November 30, 2004, there were no liabilities recorded under
these indemnification obligations. Additionally, Solectron may
be required to indemnify a buyer for environmental remediation
costs for a period up to 10 years and not to exceed
$13 million. Solectron maintains an insurance policy to
cover environmental remediation liabilities in excess of
reserves previously established upon the acquisition of these
properties. Solectron did not record any environmental charges
upon disposition of these properties.
Solectron is in the process of terminating a synthetic lease
agreement associated with a discontinued operation that has been
sold. Any resulting gain or loss from the absolution of the
synthetic lease agreement will be recognized in discontinued
operations.
The current and non-current assets and liabilities of
discontinued operations as of November 30, 2004 and

NOTE 13 |
Restructuring and Impairment |
Over the past few years, Solectron has recorded restructuring
and impairment costs as it rationalized operations in light of
customer demand declines and the economic downturn. The
measures, which included reducing the workforce, consolidating
facilities and changing the strategic focus of a number of
sites, was largely intended to align Solectrons capacity
and infrastructure to anticipated customer demand and transition
our operations to lower cost regions. The restructuring and
impairment costs include employee severance and benefit costs,
costs related to leased facilities abandoned and subleased,
impairment of owned facilities no
23
SOLECTRON CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial
Statements (Continued)
longer used by Solectron which will be disposed, costs related
to leased equipment that has been abandoned, and impairment of
owned equipment that will be disposed. For owned facilities and
equipment, the impairment loss recognized was based on the fair
value less costs to sell, with fair value estimated based on
existing market prices for similar assets. Severance and benefit
costs and other costs associated with restructuring activities
initiated prior to January 1, 2003 were recorded in
compliance with EITF Issue No. 94-3, Liability
Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other
Costs to Exit an Activity. Severance and benefit costs
associated with restructuring activities initiated on or after
January 1, 2003 are recorded in accordance with
SFAS No. 112, Employers Accounting for
Postemployment Benefits, as Solectron concluded that it
had a substantive severance plan. In accordance with
SFAS No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated
with Exit or Disposal Activities, the estimated lease loss
accrued for leased facilities abandoned and subleased after
December 31, 2002 represents the fair value of the lease
liability as measured by the present value of future lease
payments subsequent to abandonment less the present value of any
estimated sublease income. For those facilities abandoned and
subleased before January 1, 2003, as part of restructuring
activities under EITF Issue No. 94-3, the estimated lease
loss represents payments subsequent to abandonment less any
estimated sublease income. In order to estimate future sublease
income, Solectron works with a real estate broker to estimate
the length of time until it can sublease a facility and the
amount of rent it can expect to receive. Estimates of expected
sublease income could change based on factors that affect
Solectrons ability to sublease those facilities such as
general economic conditions and the real estate market, among
others.
See also Note 11, Intangible Assets, for
discussion of intangible asset impairment charges.
Three months ended
November 30, 2004 and 2003
Solectron continued to incur expected restructuring charges in
the first quarter of fiscal 2005 as a result of revisions of
previous estimates along with idle facility common area
maintenance costs. Total restructuring and impairment costs of
$0.7 million were charged against continuing operations.
During the three months ended November 30, 2004, Solectron
incurred $1.2 million in impairments of equipment and
facilities resulting from changes in market conditions.

worldwide, all of which have been eliminated. The positions
eliminated were primarily in the Americas and European regions.
Solectron has one restructuring plan of approximately
$20.0 million to complete as of November 30, 2004.
Cumulative restructuring costs recorded under this plan as of
November 30, 2004 was approximately $19.0 million.

2004
During fiscal 2004, Solectron recorded restructuring and
impairment charges (excluding intangible asset impairment
charges) of $130.4 million related to continuing operations.
In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2004, Solectron committed to a
plan to incur approximately $20.0 million in new
restructuring charges. At the end of fiscal 2004, Solectron
recorded approximately $19.0 million of restructuring
charges related to this plan. These restructuring actions are to
further consolidate facilities, reduce the workforce in Europe
and North America and impair certain long-lived assets. These
new restructuring actions will result in future savings in
salaries and benefits and depreciation expense, and will result
in cash expenditures of approximately $14.4 million.
Solectron expects to complete this new plan by the end of fiscal
2005.
The employee severance and benefit costs included in the 2004
restructuring charges previous to the above-mentioned plan
relate to the elimination of approximately 2,100 full-time
positions worldwide and all such positions have been eliminated
under this plan. The positions eliminated were primarily in the
Americas and European regions.
Under both restructuring activities mentioned above, facilities
and equipment subject to restructuring were primarily located in
the Americas and Europe. For leased facilities that will be
abandoned and subleased, the lease costs represent the present
value of future lease payments subsequent to abandonment less
estimated sublease income. For owned facilities and equipment,
the impairment loss recognized was based on the fair value less
costs to sell, with fair value based on estimates of existing
market prices for similar assets.
The other exit costs mainly represent program transfer activity
between global operation sites, which are recorded as the
charges are incurred.
The employee severance and benefit costs included in the
restructuring charges recorded in fiscal 2003 relate to the
elimination of approximately 9,500 full-time positions
worldwide and all such positions have now been eliminated under
this plan. Approximately 57% of the positions eliminated were in
the Americas region, 31% were in Europe and 12% were in Asia/
Pacific. Facilities and equipment subject to restructuring were
primarily located in the Americas and Europe.
For leased facilities that will be abandoned and subleased, the
lease costs represent future lease payments subsequent to
abandonment less estimated sublease income. For owned facilities
and equipment, the

impairment loss recognized was based on the fair value less
costs to sell, with fair value based on estimates of existing
market prices for similar assets.
The other exit costs mainly represent program transfer activity
between global operation sites, which are recorded as the
charges are incurred.

Accruals related to restructuring activities were recorded in
accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the
accompanying consolidated balance sheet. Solectron expects to
pay approximately $45.0 million in the next year related to
severance and benefits, lease commitment costs and other exit
costs. The remaining balance, primarily consisting of lease
commitment costs on facilities is expected to be paid out
through 2012.

NOTE 14 |
Income (Loss) Per Share Calculation |
Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed using the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding during the period.
The computation of diluted earnings per share calculates the
effect of dilutive securities on weighted average shares.
Dilutive securities would include options to purchase common
stock and shares issuable upon conversion of Solectrons
LYONs and ACES. If certain conversion events occur, dilutive
securities would also include shares issuable upon conversion of
Solectrons 0.5% senior notes.

SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes,
requires that a valuation allowance be established when it is
more likely than not that all or a portion of
deferred tax assets will not be realized. A review of all
available positive and negative evidence needs to be considered,
including the companys performance, the market environment
in which the company operates, the utilization of past tax
credits, length of carryback and carryforward periods, and
existing contracts or sales backlog that will result in future
profits, among other
27
SOLECTRON CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial
Statements (Continued)
factors. It further states that forming a conclusion that a
valuation allowance is not needed is difficult when there is
negative evidence such as cumulative losses in recent years in
the jurisdictions to which the deferred tax assets relate.
Therefore, cumulative losses weigh heavily in the overall
assessment. As a result of the review undertaken after the end
of the third quarter of fiscal 2003, Solectron concluded that it
was appropriate to establish a full valuation allowance for most
of the net deferred tax assets arising from its operations in
the jurisdictions to which the deferred tax assets relate. The
total valuation allowance is approximately $1.6 billion as
of November 30, 2004. In addition, Solectron expects to
continue to provide a full valuation allowance on future tax
benefits until it can demonstrate a sustained level of
profitability that establishes its ability to utilize the assets
in the jurisdictions to which the assets relate. Solectron
incurs tax expense in certain countries which are not subject to
the aforementioned valuation allowance during the three months
ended November 30, 2004.
Certain of Solectrons offshore operations are beginning to
report taxable profits, mostly arising in low-cost locations.
Accordingly, Solectron anticipates some tax expense in future
quarters related to those operations. Solectron will not be able
to offset this tax expense with unrecognized deferred tax assets
described above, because, for the most part, those assets did
not arise in the jurisdictions where Solectron is realizing
taxable profits.
In addition, Solectron has established contingency reserves for
income taxes in various jurisdictions. The estimate of
appropriate tax reserves is based upon the amount of prior tax
benefit that might be at risk upon audit and upon the reasonable
estimate of the amount at risk. Solectron periodically reassess
the amount of such reserves and adjust reserve balances as
necessary.

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 (the Exchange
Act), and are subject to the safe harbor provisions set
forth in the Exchange Act. These forward-looking statements
relate to matters including, but not limited to:
|
|
|
|
|
future sales and operating results; |
|
|
|
our anticipation of the timing and amounts of our future
obligations and commitments; |
|
|
|
our belief that our cash and cash equivalents, lines of

Overview
We provide a range of worldwide manufacturing and integrated
supply chain services to companies who design and market
electronic products. Our revenue is generated from sales of our
services primarily to customers in the Computing &
Storage, Networking, Communications, Consumer, Industrial, and
Automotive markets.
This discussion should be read in conjunction with (i) the
accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and
related notes to such financial statements included in
Part I, Item 1, Financial Statements of
this Form 10-Q/ A and (ii) the consolidated
financial statements and the notes to such financial statements
included in Part II, Item 8, Financial
Statements and Supplementary Data of the 2004 10-K/A,
which we are filing concurrently with this Form 10-Q/A. All
applicable disclosures in the following discussion have been
modified to reflect the Restatement, as described below.
29
We have restated our consolidated financial statements for the
fiscal years 2004, 2003 and 2002 and for the first quarter of
2005. In addition, certain amounts in the notes to our
consolidated financial statements within this Form 10-Q/A
have been restated to reflect the Restatement adjustments.
In the Restatement, we have corrected errors primarily related
to unreconciled differences in intercompany balances, foreign
currency translations, accounts payable, accrued liabilities,
fixed assets, other assets, deferred tax assets, deferred tax
liabilities, interest expense, inventory, goodwill and
intangible assets. In addition, there have been
reclassifications of certain balance sheet accounts.
The determination to restate these financial statements was made
as a result of managements identification of errors
primarily related to untimely account analysis of financial
statement balances for fiscal years 2004, 2003 and 2002 through
the Companys self-assessment and self-testing of its
internal control over financial reporting under Section 404
of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.
The Restatement increased our net income for the first quarter
of fiscal 2005 by $2.3 million. The Restatement increased
our net loss from continuing operations before income taxes and
our net loss for the first quarter of fiscal 2004 by
$6.6 million and $5.7 million, respectively. The
impact of the Restatement on the condensed consolidated
statements of operations, balance sheet and statements of cash
flow is included in Note 2 Restatement of Financial
Statements in the notes to the condensed consolidated
financial statements contained herein.
The primary impact on the historical consolidated balance sheets
and consolidated statements of cash flows related to the
adjustments mentioned above.

Net sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2005 remained the same
at approximately $2.7 billion relative to the same period
of fiscal 2004. Our sales levels during the first quarter of
fiscal 2005 were softer than anticipated.
Gross profit improved to 5.8% for the first quarter of fiscal
2005 compared to 4.7% for the same period of fiscal 2004. The
gross profit improvement was the result of effectively
implementing the Lean Initiative in our manufacturing sites
around the world and increasing discipline in our quote process
for new business.
Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expense continued
to decline in the first quarter of fiscal 2005. SG&A expense
was $95.6 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2005
compared to $114.4 million for the same period of fiscal
2004. The reduction in SG&A expense is a result of our
continued discipline in spending.

Inventory turns are calculated as the ratio of cost of sales
compared to the average inventory for the quarter. During the
first quarter of fiscal 2005, inventory turns declined due to a
decrease in revenue resulting from lower demand than
anticipated. DSO is calculated as the ratio of average accounts
receivable for the quarter compared to daily revenue for the
quarter. DSO has increased from the prior quarter due the higher
mix of customers with longer payment terms in the quarter. DPO
is calculated as the ratio of average accounts payable during
the quarter compared to daily cost of sales for the quarter. DPO
has increased from the prior quarter due to higher payable
balances resulting from increasing inventory in anticipation of
higher sales. The C2C cycle is determined by taking the ratio of
360 days compared to inventory turns plus DSO minus DPO.
The C2C cycle has increased from the prior quarter primarily as
a result of higher DSO and lower inventory turns, partially
offset by improvements in DPO.
Critical Accounting Policies
Management is required to make judgments, assumptions and
estimates that affect the amounts reported when we prepare
consolidated financial statements and related disclosures in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the
United States. Note 1, Summary of Significant
Accounting Policies, to the consolidated financial
statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal
year ended August 31, 2004 describes the significant
accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of our
consolidated financial statements. Estimates are used for, but
not limited to, our accounting for contingencies, allowance for
doubtful accounts, inventory valuation, goodwill and intangible
asset impairments, restructuring costs, and income taxes. Actual
results could differ from these estimates. The following
critical accounting policies are impacted significantly by
judgments, assumptions and estimates used in the preparation of
our consolidated financial statements.
Our inventories are stated at the lower of weighted average cost
or market. Our industry is characterized by rapid technological
change, short-term customer commitments and rapid changes in
demand, as well as any other lower of cost or market
considerations. We make provisions for estimated excess and
obsolete inventory based on our regular reviews of inventory
quantities on hand and the latest forecasts of product demand
and production requirements from our customers. Our provisions
for excess and obsolete inventory are also impacted by our
contractual arrangements with our customers including our
ability or inability to re-sell such inventory to them. If
actual market conditions or our customers product demands
are less favorable than those projected or if our customers are
unwilling or unable to comply with any contractual arrangements
related to excess and obsolete inventory, additional provisions
may be required.
|
|
|
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts |
We evaluate the collectability of our accounts receivable based
on a combination of factors. Where we are aware of circumstances
that may impair a specific customers ability to meet its
financial obligations to us, we
31
record a specific allowance against amounts due to us and
thereby reduce the net receivable to the amount we reasonably
believe is likely to be collected. For all other customers, we
recognize allowances for doubtful accounts based on the length
of time the receivables are outstanding, industry and geographic
concentrations, the current business environment and our
historical experience. If the financial condition of our
customers deteriorates or if economic conditions worsen,
additional allowances may be required.
In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
(SFAS) No. 142, Goodwill and Other
Intangible Assets, we review the carrying amount of
goodwill for impairment on an annual basis during the fourth
quarter (as of June 1). Additionally, we perform an
impairment assessment of goodwill whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the carrying value of goodwill may
not be recoverable. Significant changes in circumstances can be
both internal to our strategic and financial direction, as well
as changes to the competitive and economic landscape. With the
change in operating segments as of Sept 1, 2003, we
determined that there was a single reporting unit for the
purpose of goodwill impairment tests under
SFAS No. 142. For purposes of assessing the impairment
of our goodwill, we estimate the value of the reporting unit
using our market capitalization as the best evidence of fair
value. This fair value is then compared to the carrying value of
the reporting unit. If the fair value of the reporting unit is
less than its carrying value, we then allocate the fair value of
the unit to all the assets and liabilities of that unit
(including any unrecognized intangible assets) as if the
reporting units fair value was the purchase price to
acquire the reporting unit. The excess of the fair value of the
reporting unit over the amounts assigned to its assets and
liabilities is the implied fair value of the goodwill. If the
carrying amount of the reporting units goodwill exceeds
the implied fair value of that goodwill, an impairment loss is
recognized in an amount equal to that excess. The process of
evaluating the potential impairment of goodwill is subjective
and requires judgment at many points during the test including
future revenue forecasts, discount rates and various reporting
unit allocations.
Our intangible assets consist primarily of intellectual property
agreements and other intangible assets obtained from asset
acquisitions. Intangible assets are evaluated for impairment
whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the
carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. Impairment is
measured by comparing the intangible assets carrying amounts to
the fair values as determined using discounted cash flow models.
There is significant judgment involved in determining these cash
flows.

|
|
Restructuring and Related Impairment Costs |
Over the past few years, we have recorded restructuring and
impairment costs as we rationalized our operations in light of
customer demand declines and the economic downturn. These
restructuring and impairment charges include employee severance
and benefit costs, costs related to leased facilities that have
been abandoned and subleased, owned facilities no longer used by
us which will be disposed of, costs related to leased equipment
that has been abandoned or returned to the lessor, and
impairment of owned equipment that will be disposed of. For
owned facilities and equipment, the impairment loss recognized
was based on the fair value less costs to sell, with fair value
estimated based on existing market prices for similar assets.
Severance and benefit costs and other costs associated with
restructuring activities initiated prior to January 1, 2003
were recorded in compliance with EITF Issue No. 94-3,
Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination
Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity. Severance
and benefit costs associated with restructuring activities
initiated on or after January 1, 2003 are recorded in
accordance with SFAS No. 112, Employers
Accounting for Postemployment Benefits, as we concluded
that we had a substantive severance plan. In accordance with
SFAS No. 146, Accounting for Costs Associated
with Exit or Disposal Activities, the estimated lease loss
accrued for leased facilities that have been abandoned and
subleased after January 1, 2003 represents the fair value
of the lease liability as measured by the present value of
future lease payments subsequent to abandonment less the present
value of any estimated sublease income. For those facilities
abandoned and subleased as part of restructuring activities
under EITF Issue No. 94-3, the estimated lease
32
loss represents payments subsequent to abandonment less any
estimated sublease income. In order to estimate future sublease
income, we work with a real estate broker to estimate the length
of time until we can sublease a facility and the amount of rent
we can expect to receive. Our estimates of expected sublease
income could change based on factors that affect our ability to
sublease those facilities such as general economic conditions
and the real estate market, among others.
We currently have significant deferred tax assets in certain
jurisdictions resulting from tax credit carry-forwards, net
operating losses and other deductible temporary differences,
which will reduce taxable income in such jurisdictions in future
periods. We have provided valuation allowances for future tax
benefits resulting from foreign net operating loss
carry-forwards and for certain other U.S. and foreign deductible
temporary differences where we believe future realizability is
in doubt. SFAS No. 109 requires a valuation allowance
to be established when it is more likely than not
that all or a portion of deferred tax assets will not be
realized, and further provides that it is difficult to conclude
that a valuation allowance is not needed when there is negative
evidence in the form of cumulative losses in recent years.
Therefore, cumulative losses weigh heavily in the overall
assessment. We established a valuation allowance in the third
quarter of fiscal 2003 for most of our deferred tax assets
because prior losses and an uncertain future outlook did not
support projections of profitability sufficient to establish our
ability to use those deferred tax assets in future periods. We
have not yet established sustained profitability since that time
which would support recognition of deferred tax assets generated
in prior and current periods.
We have established contingency reserves for income taxes in
various jurisdictions in accordance with SFAS No. 5
Accounting for Contingencies. The estimate of
appropriate tax reserves is based upon the amount of prior tax
benefit which might be at risk upon audit and upon the
reasonable estimate of the amount at risk. We periodically
reassess the amount of such reserves and adjusts reserve
balances as necessary.
We are subject to the possibility of various loss contingencies
arising in the ordinary course of business (for example,
environmental and legal matters). We consider the likelihood and
our ability to reasonably estimate the amount of loss in
determining the necessity for, and amount of, any loss
contingencies. Estimated loss contingencies are accrued when it
is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of
loss can be reasonably estimated. We regularly evaluate
information available to us to determine whether any such
accruals should be adjusted. Such revisions in the estimates of
the potential loss contingencies could have a material impact in
our consolidated results of operations and financial position.

Net Sales Continuing Operations
For the first quarter of fiscal 2005, net sales remained flat at
$2.7 billion as compared to the same period of fiscal 2004.
The sales mix between end-markets changed between reporting
periods. We have seen a decline in the computing and storage
end-markets since the first quarter of fiscal 2004. Revenue
dollars in all other end-markets have increased between periods.
The decline in the computing and storage end markets is due
primarily to the disengagement of certain low-margin programs.
34
The following table depicts, for the periods indicated, revenue
by market expressed as a percentage of net sales. The
distribution of revenue across our markets has fluctuated, and
will continue to fluctuate, as a result of numerous factors,
including but not limited to: increased business from new and
existing customers; fluctuations in customer demand;
seasonality; and growth in outsourcing.

International Sales Continuing Operations
In the three months ended November 30, 2004, our
international locations contributed approximately 70.8% of net
sales compared to approximately 72.0% for the corresponding
period of fiscal 2004.
Major Customers Continuing Operations
Certain customers accounted for 10% or more of our net sales.
The following table includes these customers and the percentage
of net sales attributed to them:

Our top ten customers accounted for approximately 60.7% of net
sales for the three months ended November 30, 2004,
compared to approximately 57.9% in the corresponding period of
fiscal 2004.
We believe that our ability to grow depends on increasing sales
to existing customers and on successfully attracting new
customers. Customer contracts can be canceled and volume levels
can be changed or delayed. The timely replacement of delayed,
canceled or reduced orders with new business cannot be ensured.
In addition, we cannot assume that any of our current customers
will continue to utilize our services. Consequently, our results
of operations may be materially adversely affected.
Gross Profit Continuing Operations
Gross profit varies from period to period and is affected by a
number of factors, including product mix, production
efficiencies, component costs and delivery linearity, product
life cycles, unit volumes, expansion and consolidation of
manufacturing facilities, utilization of manufacturing capacity,
pricing, competition, and unanticipated restructuring or
inventory charges.
Our gross profit percentage increased to 5.8% for the three
months ended November 30, 2004 compared to 4.7% for the
corresponding period in fiscal 2004, respectively. The gross
profit improvement was the result of effectively implementing
the Lean Initiative in our manufacturing sites around the world
and increasing discipline in our quote process for new business.
Sales of inventory previously written down or written off have
not been significant and have not had any material impact on our
gross profits for the three months ended November 30, 2004.
35
Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A)
Expenses Continuing Operations
SG&A expenses decreased $18.8 million, or 16.4%, for
the three months ended November 30, 2004 compared to the
corresponding period in fiscal 2004. As a percentage of net
sales, SG&A expenses decreased to 3.6% for the three months
ended November 30, 2004 compared to 4.3% in the
corresponding periods in fiscal 2004. The decrease was primarily
due to headcount and other SG&A expense reductions resulting
from our restructuring initiatives.
Restructuring and Impairment Continuing
Operations
During the first quarter of fiscal 2005, restructuring and
impairment costs of $0.7 million were charged against
operations which mainly related to the impairment charges on
property and equipment held for sale due to changes in market
condition. The decrease quarter over quarter was due to a
reduction in restructuring activities.
Interest Income Continuing Operations
Interest income increased $3.3 million to $5.8 million
for the three months ended November 30, 2004 from
$2.5 million in the corresponding period in fiscal 2004.
The increase was due to increased average cash and cash
equivalent balances.
Interest Expense Continuing Operations
Interest expense decreased $27.6 million to
$16.3 million for the three months ended November 30,
2004 from $43.9 million in the corresponding period in
fiscal 2004. The decrease was primarily due to the retirement of
approximately $1.6 billion aggregate principal amount of
our LYONs and the settlement of approximately 94% of our ACES
debentures during fiscal 2004.
Other Income net Continuing
Operations
Other income net increased $0.5 million to
$4.7 million for the three months ended November 30,
2004 from $4.2 million in the corresponding period in
fiscal 2004. The fluctuation is primarily due to foreign
currency gains and losses.
Income Taxes Continuing Operations
Our income tax expense was $5.9 million and
$1.6 million for the three months ended November 30,
2004 and 2003, respectively. We incurred net tax expense in
certain countries in which we had profitable operations during
the periods ended November 30, 2004 and November 30,
2003.
In prior quarters, the effective income tax rate had been
largely a function of the balance between income and losses from
domestic and international operations. Our international
operations, taken as a whole, have been subject to tax at a
lower rate than operations in the United States, primarily due
to tax holidays granted to several of our overseas sites in
Malaysia, Singapore and China. The Malaysian tax holiday is
effective through January 2012, subject to certain conditions,
including maintaining certain levels of research and development
expenditures. The Singapore tax holiday is effective through
March 2011, subject to certain conditions. Several of our China
sites have separate tax holiday agreements.
Certain of our offshore operations are reporting taxable
profits, mostly arising in low-cost locations. Accordingly, we
are recognizing some tax expense related to those operations. We
will not be able to offset this tax expense with unrecognized
deferred tax assets described above, because, for the most part,
those assets did not arise in the jurisdictions where we are
realizing taxable profits.
In addition, Solectron has established contingency reserves for
income taxes in various jurisdictions. The estimate of
appropriate tax reserves is based upon the amount of prior tax
benefit which might be at risk upon audit and upon the
reasonable estimate of the amount at risk. Solectron
periodically reassess the amount of such reserves and adjust
reserve balances as necessary.
36
On October 22, 2004, the American Jobs Creation Act
(the AJCA) was signed into law. The AJCA includes a
deduction of 85% of certain foreign earnings that are
repatriated, as defined in the AJCA. The Company may elect to
apply this provision to qualifying earnings repatriations in
either the balance of Fiscal 2005 or in Fiscal 2006. The Company
has started an evaluation of the effects of the repatriation
provision; however, the Company does not expect to be able to
complete this evaluation until after Congress or the Treasury
Department provide additional clarifying language on key
elements of the provision.
Liquidity and Capital Resources Continuing
Operations
Cash and cash equivalents increased to approximately
$1.7 billion at November 30, 2004 from approximately
$1.4 billion at August 31, 2004. The table below, for
the periods indicated, provides selected condensed consolidated
cash flow information (in millions):

(11.8 |

Net cash provided by operating activities was
$198.5 million during the three months ended
November 30, 2004. This cash was generated by a
$47.5 million income from continuing operations, a
$120.4 million decrease in accounts receivable, a
$53.6 million decrease in inventories, a $15.9 million
decrease in prepaids and other current assets, non-cash
depreciation and amortization charges of $48.5 million.
These were offset by a $71.5 million decrease in accounts
payable, and a $17.9 million decrease in accrued expenses
and other current liabilities. The decrease in inventory levels
and accounts payable is due to lower levels of material
purchases resulting from lower first quarter revenue.
Net cash used in investing activities of $5.1 million
during the three months ended November 30, 2004 primarily
consisted of net proceeds of $30.0 million received from
the disposition of one of our discontinued operations,
$16.0 million received from sale of investment in ECS
Holdings, and $3.8 million in proceeds from sale of
property and equipment. These were offset by $32.0 million
in capital expenditures and $22.9 million in advances to
discontinued operations.
Net cash provided by financing activities of $50.4 million
during the three months ended November 30, 2004 primarily
consisted of the proceeds from issuance of common stock of
$64.3 million related to the retirement of ACES securities
offset by $15.1 million of repayment of debt related to
various debt facilities.
As of November 30, 2004, we had available a
$500 million revolving credit facility that expires on
August 20, 2007. Our revolving credit facility is
guaranteed by certain of our domestic subsidiaries and secured
by the pledge of domestic accounts receivable, inventory and
equipment, the pledge of equity interests in certain of our
subsidiaries and notes evidencing intercompany debt. Borrowings
under the credit facility bear interest, at our option, at the
London Interbank offering rate (LIBOR) plus a margin of
2.25% based on our current senior secured debt ratings, or the
higher of the Federal Funds Rate plus
1/2
of 1% or Bank of America N.A.s publicly announced prime
rate. As of November 30, 2004, there were no borrowings
outstanding under this facility. We are subject to compliance
with certain financial covenants set forth in these facilities
including, but not limited to, capital expenditures, cash
interest coverage and leverage. We were in compliance with all
applicable covenants as of November 30, 2004.
In addition, we had $15.2 million in committed and
$176.7 million in uncommitted foreign lines of credit and
other bank facilities as of November 30, 2004 relating to
continuing operations. A committed line of credit obligates a
lender to loan us amounts under the credit facility as long as
we adhere to the terms of the credit agreement. An uncommitted
line of credit is extended to us at the sole discretion of a
lender. The interest rates
37
range from the banks prime lending rate to the banks
prime rate plus 1.0%. As of November 30, 2004, borrowings
and guaranteed amounts were $5.8 million under committed
and $0 under uncommitted foreign lines of credit. Borrowings are
payable on demand. The weighted-average interest rate was 4.0%
for committed foreign lines of credit as of November 30,
2004.
During the first quarter of fiscal 2005, we issued
6.6 million shares of common stock for total net proceeds
of $64.3 million in connection with the settlement and
retirement of the equity component of the remaining ACES units,
as defined in the ACES agreement.
$150.0 million aggregate principal amount of
7.375% senior notes is due on March 1, 2006, our
$500.0 million aggregate principal amount of
9.625% senior notes is due on February 15, 2009, and
our $450.0 million aggregate principal amount of
0.5% convertible senior notes is callable by the holders on
February 15, 2011.
We have synthetic lease agreements relating to four
manufacturing sites for continuing operations. The synthetic
leases have expiration dates in 2007. At the end of the lease
term, we have an option, subject to certain conditions, to
purchase or to cause a first party to purchase the facilities
subject to the synthetic leases for the Termination
Value, which approximates the lessors original cost
for each facility, or we may market the property to a first
party at a different price. We are entitled to any proceeds from
a sale of the properties to first parties in excess of the
Termination Value and liable to the lessor for any shortfall. We
provided loans to the lessor equaling approximately 85% of the
Termination Value for each synthetic lease. These loans are
repayable solely from the sale of the properties to first
parties in the future, are subordinated to the amounts payable
to the lessor at the end of the synthetic leases, and may be
credited against the Termination Value payable if we purchase
the properties. The approximate aggregate Termination Values and
loan amounts are $101.3 million and $86.1 million,
respectively, as of November 30, 2004.
In addition, cash collateral of $15.2 million is pledged
for the difference between the aggregate Termination Values and
the loan amounts. Each synthetic lease agreement contains
various affirmative and financial covenants. A default under a
lease, including violation of these covenants, may accelerate
the termination date of the arrangement. We were in compliance
with all applicable covenants as of November 30, 2004.
Monthly lease payments are generally based on the Termination
Value and 30-day LIBOR index (1.99% as of November 30,
2004) plus an interest-rate margin, which may vary depending
upon our Moodys Investors Services and Standard and
Poors ratings, and are allocated between the lessor and us
based on the proportion of the loan amount to the Termination
Value for each synthetic lease.
We have determined that it is probable that the expected fair
value of the properties at the end of each of the various
synthetic lease terms will be less than the applicable
Termination Value. Accretion expense during the quarter ending
November 30, 2004 was $1.1 million.
We account for these synthetic lease arrangements as operating
leases in accordance with SFAS No. 13,
Accounting for Leases, as amended. Our loans to the
lessor and cash collateral were included in other long-term
assets and cash and cash equivalents, respectively, in the
condensed consolidated balance sheets.
We believe that our current cash, cash equivalents, lines of
credit and cash anticipated to be generated from continuing
operations and divestitures of our discontinued operation will
satisfy our expected working capital, capital expenditures, debt
service and investment requirements through at least the next
12 months.

We have guaranteed various purchase commitments for materials,
supplies and services incurred during the normal course of
business. |
Other long-term liabilities of $52.2 million disclosed on
the consolidated financial statements includes deferred tax
liabilities related to timing differences, which due to their
nature are not projected.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Contractual Obligations
Our off-balance sheet arrangements and contractual obligations
consist of our synthetic and operating leases, our interest rate
swap instrument related to our long-term debt (described in the
We are exposed to interest rate fluctuations Risk
Factor), our foreign exchange contracts (described in the
We are exposed to fluctuations in foreign currency
exchange rates Risk Factor), and certain indemnification
provisions related to our seven divestures (described in the
Discontinued Operations portion below).
A tabular presentation of our contractual obligations is
provided in the Liquidity and Capital Resources
portion of Managements Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
Discontinued Operations
In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2003 and the first quarter of
fiscal 2004, we designated the following businesses as
discontinued operations: Dy 4 Systems Inc., Kavlico Corporation,
our MicroTechnology division, SMART Modular Technologies Inc.,
Stream International Inc., our 63% interest in US Robotics
Corporation, and Force Computers, Inc. In fiscal 2004, all of
the businesses were sold except the MicroTechnology division.

Net sales, gross profit, operating expenses (income)
net, interest income net, other income
(expense) net, and income tax expense from discontinued
operations decreased for the three months ended
November 30, 2004 as compared to the same period in fiscal
2004 primarily due to the fact that the activity during fiscal
2005 only represents the operations and sale of the final
discontinued operation as the remaining discontinued operations
were previously sold in fiscal 2004. In addition, there was a
$10.1 million pre-tax gain from the sale of the
discontinued operations recorded in operating (income)
expenses net for the three month period ended
November 30, 2004. As a result of this disposition, we
transferred approximately $28.3 million from accumulated
foreign currency translation gains, included in accumulated
other comprehensive losses within Stockholders Equity and
recognized that amount as part of the pre-tax gain.
During fiscal 2004, we completed the sale of the other
discontinued operations. During the first quarter of fiscal
2005, we increased the net loss on disposal of these
discontinued operations by approximately $0.5 million
resulting from a few insignificant adjustments pursuant to the
terms of the disposal transaction. For the three months ended
November 30, 2004, the adjustment to the net loss on these
discontinued operations is recorded in operating (income)
expenses net as disclosed above.
The sales agreements for all seven divestitures contain certain
indemnification provisions under which we may be required to
indemnify the buyer of the divested business for liabilities,
losses, or expenses arising out of breaches of covenants and
certain breaches of representations and warranties relating to
the condition of the business prior to and at the time of sale.
In aggregate, we are contingently liable for up to
$94.8 million for a period of 12 to 24 months
subsequent to the completion of the sale. As of
November 30, 2004 there were no liabilities recorded under
these indemnification obligations. Additionally, we may be
required to indemnify a buyer for environmental remediation
costs for a period up to 10 years and not to exceed
$13 million. We maintain an insurance policy to cover
environmental remediation liabilities in excess of reserves
previously established upon the acquisition of these properties.
We did not record any environmental charges upon disposition of
these properties.
We are in the process of terminating a synthetic lease agreement
associated with a discontinued operation that has been sold. Any
resulting gain or loss from the absolution of the synthetic
lease agreement will be recognized in discontinued operations.
The sales agreements of the discontinued operations generally
include terms which may result in adjustments to the gain or
loss in fiscal quarters subsequent to the closing of the sale.
40
RISK FACTORS
|
|
|
Most of our net sales come from a small number of
customers; if we lose any of these customers, our net sales
could decline significantly. |
Most of our annual net sales come from a small number of our
customers. Our ten largest customers accounted for approximately
60.7% and 57.9% of net sales from continuing operations in the
first quarter of fiscal 2005 and 2004, respectively. During the
first quarter of fiscal 2005, two of these customers
individually account for more than ten percent of our annual net
sales. Any material delay, cancellation or reduction of orders
from these or other major customers could cause our net sales to
decline significantly, and we may not be able to reduce the
accompanying expenses at the same time. We cannot guarantee that
we will be able to retain any of our largest customers or any
other accounts, or that we will be able to realize the expected
revenues under existing or anticipated supply agreements with
these customers. Our business, market share, consolidated
financial condition and results of operations will continue to
depend significantly on our ability to obtain orders from new
customers, retain existing customers, realize expected revenues
under existing and anticipated supply agreements, as well as on
the consolidated financial condition and success of our
customers and their customers.
Net sales may not improve, and could decline, in future periods
if there is continued or resumed weakness in customer demand,
particularly in the telecommunications and computing sectors,
resulting from worldwide economic conditions. In addition, in
connection with our efforts to improve our gross profits, we
have engaged in pricing discussions with certain customers on
specific programs where we felt we were under-compensated for
the services and value that were providing. Where we have not
been able to reach mutual agreement with a customer on price
adjustments, we have mutually agreed with the customer to
transition the business in question to a new supplier. While we
believe our disengagement from specific programs with certain
customers will ultimately advance our efforts to return to
sustained profitability, there can be no assurance that such
disengagements will not result in unanticipated or adverse
financial effects.
|
|
|
Our customers may cancel their orders, change production
quantities or locations, or delay production. |
To remain competitive, EMS companies must provide increasingly
rapid product turnaround, at increasingly competitive prices,
for their customers. We generally do not have long-term
contractual commitments from our top customers. As a result, we
cannot guarantee that we will continue to receive any net sales
from our customers. Customers may cancel their orders, change
production quantities or delay production for a number of
reasons outside of our control. Many of our customers
industries have recently experienced a significant decrease in
demand for their products and services, as well as substantial
price competition. The generally uncertain economic condition of
several of our customers industries has resulted, and may
continue to result, in some of our customers delaying purchases
on some of the products we manufacture for them, and placing
purchase orders for lower volumes of products than previously
anticipated. Cancellations, reductions or delays by a
significant customer or by a group of customers would seriously
harm our results of operations by reducing the volumes of
products manufactured by us for the customers and delivered in
that period. Furthermore, delays in the repayment of our
expenditures for inventory in preparation for customer orders
and lower asset utilization in those periods would result in
lower gross profits. In addition, customers may require that
manufacturing of their products be transitioned from one
facility to another to achieve cost and other objectives. Such
transfers, if unanticipated or not properly executed, could
result in various inefficiencies and costs, including excess
capacity and overhead at one facility and capacity constraints
and related strains on our resources at the other, disruption
and delays in product deliveries and sales, deterioration in
product quality and customer satisfaction, and increased
manufacturing and scrap costs.
|
|
|
We may not be able to sell excess or obsolete inventory to
customers or third parties, which could have a material adverse
impact on our consolidated financial condition. |
The majority of our inventory purchases and commitments are
based upon demand forecasts that our customers provide to us.
The customers forecasts, and any changes to the forecasts,
including cancellations,
41
may lead to on-hand inventory quantities and on-order purchase
commitments that are in excess of the customers revised
needs, or that become obsolete.
We generally enter into supply agreements with our significant
customers. Under these supply agreements, the extent of our
customers responsibility for excess or obsolete inventory
related to raw materials that were previously purchased or
ordered to meet that customers demand forecast is defined.
If our customers do not comply with their contractual
obligations to purchase excess or obsolete inventory back from
us and we are unable to use or sell such inventory, our
consolidated financial condition could be materially harmed.
Some of our customers are in the telecommunications industry, an
industry that in recent years has experienced declining revenue,
large losses, negative cash flows, and several bankruptcies or
defaults on borrowing arrangements. In the past, some of our
customers have defaulted on their obligations to purchase
inventory back from us. There is a risk that, in the future,
these or other customers may not purchase inventory back from us
despite contractual obligations, which could harm our
consolidated financial condition if we are unable to sell the
inventory at carrying value. In addition, enforcement of these
supply agreements may result in material expenses, delays in
payment for inventory and/or disruptions in our customer
relationships.
We are responsible for excess and obsolete inventory resulting
from inventory purchases in excess of inventory needed to meet
customer demand forecasts at the time the purchase commitments
were made, as well as any inventory purchases not made pursuant
to the customers responsibility under our supply
agreements. For inventory which is not the customers
responsibility, provisions are made when required to reduce any
such excess or obsolete inventory to its estimated net
realizable value, based on the quantity of such inventory on
hand, our customers latest forecasts of production
requirements, and our assessment of available disposition
alternatives such as use of components on other programs, the
ability and cost to return components to the vendor, and our
estimates of resale values and opportunities. These assessments
are necessarily based upon various assumptions and market
conditions which are subject to rapid change, and/or which may
ultimately prove to be inaccurate. Any material changes in our
assumptions or market conditions could have a significant effect
on our estimates of net realizable value, could necessitate
material changes in our provisions for excess and obsolete
inventory, and could have a material adverse impact on our
consolidated financial condition. In addition, in the normal
course of business, bona fide disagreements may arise over the
amount and/or timing of such claims, and in order to avoid
litigation expenses, collection risks, or disruption of customer
relationships, we may elect to settle such disputes for lesser
amounts than we believe we should be entitled to recover. In
these instances, we must bear the economic loss of any such
excess or obsolete inventory, which could have a material
adverse impact on our consolidated financial condition.
|
|
|
Our non-U.S. locations represent a significant
portion of our net sales; we are exposed to risks associated
with operating internationally. |
Approximately 70.8% and 72.0% of our net sales from continuing
operations are the result of services and products manufactured
in countries outside the United States during the first quarter
of fiscal 2005 and 2004, respectively. As a result of our
foreign sales and facilities, our operations are subject to a
variety of risks and costs that are unique to international
operations, including the following:
|
|
|
|
|
adverse movement of foreign currencies against the
U.S. dollar in which our results are reported; |
|
|
|
import and export duties, and value added taxes; |
|
|
|
import and export regulation changes that could erode our profit
margins or restrict exports and/or imports; |
|
|
|
potential restrictions on the transfer of funds; |
|
|
|
government and license requirements governing the transfer of
technology and products abroad; |
|
|
|
disruption of local labor supply and/or transportation services; |
|
|
|
inflexible employee contracts in the event of business downturns; |
|
|
|
the burden and cost of compliance with import and export
regulations and foreign laws; |
42
|
|
|
|
|
economic and political risks in emerging or developing
economies; and |
|
|
|
risks of conflict and terrorism that could disrupt our or our
customers and suppliers businesses. |
We have been granted tax holidays, which are effective through
2012 subject to some conditions, for our Malaysian and Singapore
sites. We have also been granted various tax holidays in China.
These tax holidays are effective for various terms and are
subject to some conditions. It is possible that the current tax
holidays will be terminated or modified or that future tax
holidays that we may seek will not be granted. If the current
tax holidays are terminated or modified, or if additional tax
holidays are not granted in the future or when our current tax
holidays expire, our future effective income tax rate could
increase.
|
|
|
We are exposed to general economic conditions, which could
have a material adverse impact on our business, operating
results and consolidated financial condition. |
As a result of the recent economic conditions in the U.S. and
internationally, and reduced capital spending as well as
uncertain end-market demand, our customers and therefore
our sales have been difficult to forecast with accuracy. If
there were to be continued or resumed weakness in these
industries which we serve, or any further deterioration in the
business or financial condition of our customers, it could have
a material adverse impact on our business, operating results and
consolidated financial condition. In addition, if the economic
conditions in the United States and the other markets we serve
worsen, we may experience a material adverse impact on our
business, operating results and consolidated financial condition.
|
|
|
Possible fluctuation of operating results from quarter to
quarter and factors out of our control could affect the market
price of our securities. |
Our quarterly earnings and/or stock price may fluctuate in the
future due to a number of factors including the following:
|
|
|
|
|
differences in the profitability of the types of manufacturing
services we provide. For example, high velocity and low
complexity printed circuit boards and systems assembly services
have lower gross profit than low volume/complex printed circuit
boards and systems assembly services; |
|
|
|
our ability to maximize the hours of use of our equipment and
facilities is dependent on the duration of the production run
time for each job and customer; |
|
|
|
the amount of automation that we can use in the manufacturing
process for cost reduction varies, depending upon the complexity
of the product being made; |
|
|
|
our customers demand for our products and their ability to
take delivery of our products and to make timely payments for
delivered products; |
|
|
|
our ability to optimize the ordering of inventory as to timing
and amount to avoid holding inventory in excess of immediate
production needs; |
|
|
|
our ability to offer technologically advanced, cost-effective,
quick response, manufacturing services; |
|
|
|
fluctuations in the availability and pricing of components; |
|
|
|
timing of expenditures in anticipation of increased sales; |
|
|
|
cyclicality in our target markets; |
|
|
|
fluctuations in our market share; |
|
|
|
expenses and disruptions associated with acquisitions and
divestitures; |
|
|
|
announcements of operating results and business conditions by
our customers; |
|
|
|
announcements by our competitors relating to new customers or
technological innovation or new services; |
|
|
|
economic developments in the electronics industry as a whole; |
43
|
|
|
|
|
credit rating and stock analyst downgrades; |
|
|
|
political and economic developments in countries in which we
have operations; and |
|
|
|
general market conditions. |
If our operating results in the future are below the
expectations of securities analysts and investors, the market
price of our outstanding securities could be harmed.
|
|
|
If we incur more restructuring-related charges than
currently anticipated, our consolidated financial condition and
results of operations may suffer. |
We incurred approximately $0.7 million of restructuring and
impairment costs relating to continuing operations in the first
quarter of fiscal 2005 and approximately $31.4 million
during the first quarter of fiscal 2004. If our estimates about
previous restructuring charges prove to be inadequate, our
consolidated financial condition and results of operations may
suffer. While we believe our capacity is appropriate for current
revenue levels, we continue to evaluate our cost structure
relative to future financial results and customer demand. If our
estimates about future financial results and customer demand
prove to be inadequate, our consolidated financial condition and
consolidated results of operations may suffer.
|
|
|
We depend on limited or sole source suppliers for critical
components. The inability to obtain sufficient components as
required, and under favorable purchase terms, would cause harm
to our business. |
We are dependent on certain suppliers, including limited and
sole source suppliers, to provide key components used in our
products. We have experienced, and may continue to experience,
delays in component deliveries, which in turn could cause delays
in product shipments and require the redesign of certain
products. In addition, if we are unable to procure necessary
components under favorable purchase terms, including at
favorable prices and with the order lead-times needed for the
efficient and profitable operation of our factories, our results
of operations could suffer. The electronics industry has
experienced in the past, and may experience in the future,
shortages in semiconductor devices, including
application-specific integrated circuits, DRAM, SRAM, flash
memory, certain passive devices such as tantalum capacitors, and
other commodities that may be caused by such conditions as
overall market demand surges or supplier production capacity
constraints. The inability to continue to obtain sufficient
components as and when required, or to develop alternative
sources as and when required, could cause delays, disruptions or
reductions in product shipments or require product redesigns
which could damage relationships with current or prospective
customers, and increase inventory levels and costs, thereby
causing harm to our business.
|
|
|
We potentially bear the risk of price increases associated
with shortages in electronics components. |
At various times, there have been shortages of components in the
electronics industry leading to increased component prices. One
of the services that we perform for many customers is purchasing
electronics components used in the manufacturing of the
customers products. As a result of this service, we
potentially bear the risk of price increases for these
components if we are unable to purchase components at the
pricing level anticipated to support the margins assumed in our
agreements with our customers.
|
|
|
Our net sales could decline if our competitors provide
comparable manufacturing services and improved products at a
lower cost. |
We compete with different contract manufacturers, depending on
the type of service we provide or the geographic locale of our
operations, in an industry which is intensely competitive. These
competitors may have greater manufacturing, financial, R&D
and/or marketing resources than we have. In addition, we may not
be able to offer prices as low as some of our competitors
because those competitors may have lower cost structures as a
result of their geographic location or the services they
provide, or because such competitors are willing to accept
business at lower margins in order to utilize more of their
excess capacity. In that event, our net sales could decline. We
also expect our competitors to continue to improve the
performance of their current products or services, to reduce
their current products or service sales prices and to introduce
new
44
products or services that may offer greater value-added
performance and improved pricing. Any of these could cause a
decline in sales, loss of market acceptance of our products or
services and corresponding loss of market share, or profit
margin compression. We have experienced instances in which
customers have transferred certain portions of their business to
competitors in response to more attractive pricing quotations
than we have been willing to offer, and there can be no
assurance that we will not lose business in the future in
response to such competitive pricing or other inducements which
may be offered by our competitors.
|
|
|
We depend on the continuing trend of OEMs to
outsource. |
A substantial factor in our past revenue growth was attributable
to the transfer of manufacturing and supply-based management
activities from our OEM customers. Future growth is partially
dependent on new outsourcing opportunities. To the extent that
these opportunities are not available, our future growth would
be unfavorably impacted.
|
|
|
Our strategic relationships with major customers create
risks. |
In the past several years, we completed several strategic
transactions with OEM customers. Under these arrangements, we
generally acquired inventory, equipment and other assets from
the OEM, and leased (or in some cases acquired) their
manufacturing facilities, while simultaneously entering into
multi-year supply agreements for the production of their
products. There has been strong competition among EMS companies
for these transactions, and this competition may continue to be
a factor in customers selection of their EMS providers.
These transactions contributed to a significant portion of our
past revenue growth, as well as to a significant portion of our
more recent restructuring charges and goodwill and intangible
asset impairments. While we do not anticipate our acquisitions
of OEM plants and equipment in the near future to return to the
levels at which they occurred in the recent past, there may be
occasions on which we determine it to be advantageous to
complete acquisitions in selected geographic and/or industry
markets. As part of such arrangements, we would typically enter
into supply agreements with the divesting OEMs, but such
agreements generally do not require any minimum volumes of
purchases by the OEM and the actual volume of purchases may be
less than anticipated. Arrangements which may be entered into
with divesting OEMs typically would involve many risks,
including the following:
|
|
|
|
|
we may pay a purchase price to the divesting OEMs that exceeds
the value we are ultimately able to realize from the future
business of the OEM; |
|
|
|
the integration into our business of the acquired assets and
facilities may be time-consuming and costly; |
|
|
|
we, rather than the divesting OEM, would bear the risk of excess
capacity; |
|
|
|
we may not achieve anticipated cost reductions and efficiencies; |
|
|
|
we may be unable to meet the expectations of the OEM as to
volume, product quality, timeliness and cost reductions; and |
|
|
|
if demand for the OEMs products declines, the OEM may
reduce its volume of purchases, and we may not be able to
sufficiently reduce the expenses of operating the facility or
use the facility to provide services to other OEMs, and we might
find it appropriate to close, rather than continue to operate,
the facility, and any such actions would require us to incur
significant restructuring and/or impairment charges. |
As a result of these and other risks, we may be unable to
achieve anticipated levels of profitability under such
arrangements and they may not result in material revenues or
contribute positively to our earnings. Additionally, other OEMs
may not wish to obtain logistics or operations management
services from us.
45
|
|
|
If we are unable to manage future acquisitions, and
cost-effectively run our operations, our profitability could be
adversely affected. |
Our ability to manage and integrate future acquisitions will
require successful integration of such acquisitions into our
manufacturing and logistics infrastructure, and may require
enhancements or upgrades of accounting and other internal
management systems and the implementation of a variety of
procedures and controls. We cannot guarantee that significant
problems in these areas will not occur. Any failure to enhance
or expand these systems and implement such procedures and
controls in an efficient manner and at a pace consistent with
our business activities could harm our consolidated financial
condition and results of operations. In addition, we may
experience inefficiencies from the management of geographically
dispersed facilities and incur substantial infrastructure and
working capital costs.
|
|
|
Notwithstanding our divestiture of certain businesses, we
will remain subject to certain indemnification obligations for a
period of time after completion of the divestitures. |
The sale agreement for each of our divested businesses contains
indemnification provisions under which we may be required to
indemnify the buyer of the divested business for liabilities,
losses, or expenses arising out of breaches of covenants and
certain breaches of representations and warranties relating to
the condition of the business prior to and at the time of sale.
While we believe, based upon the facts presently known to us,
that we have made adequate provision for any such potential
indemnification obligations, it is possible that other facts may
become known in the future which may subject us to claims for
additional liabilities or expenses beyond those presently
anticipated and provided for. Should any such unexpected
liabilities or expenses be of a material amount, our finances
could be adversely affected.
|
|
|
With regards to our internal controls over financial
reporting, we may not be able to adequately satisfy the
requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of
2002 (S404) in a timely manner or we may encounter
difficulties in implementing any new or improved internal
controls. |
Section 404 of the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002
(S404) requires that we evaluate and report on the
effectiveness of Solectrons internal controls over
financial reporting beginning with the annual report filed on
Form 10-K for the reporting period ending August 31,
2005. In addition, our independent auditors must report on
managements evaluation of Solectrons internal
controls. We are currently in the process of evaluating,
documenting and testing internal controls that will be used as
the basis for the S404 management report to be included in the
Form 10-K. A material weakness in our internal control over
financial reporting has been identified in connection with our
S404 efforts and the control issues surrounding this material
weakness have been or are in the process of being remediated.
Our ongoing evaluation and testing of internal controls may
result in the identification of additional deficiencies, which
may require further remediation efforts and enhancements or
changes to internal controls in order to satisfy the
requirements of S404. Any delay or failure to implement required
new or improved controls, or difficulties encountered in the
implementation of such new or improved controls, could have
implications on our consolidated operating results and could
result in a material weakness or weaknesses, each of which would
be required to be reported in the Form 10-K.
|
|
|
We are exposed to fluctuations in foreign currency
exchange rates. |
We have currency exposure arising from both sales and purchases
denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of
our sites. Fluctuations in the rate of exchange between the
currency of the exposure and the functional currency of our
sites could seriously harm our business, operating results and
consolidated financial condition.
We enter into foreign exchange forward contracts intended to
reduce the short-term impact of foreign currency fluctuations on
foreign currency cash, receivables, investments, payables and
indebtedness. The gains and losses on the foreign exchange
forward contracts are intended to offset the transaction gains
and losses on the foreign currency cash, receivables,
investments, and payables recognized in earnings. We do not
enter into foreign exchange forward contracts for speculative
purposes. Our foreign exchange forward contracts related to
current assets and liabilities are generally three months or
less in original maturity.
46
As of November 30, 2004, we had outstanding foreign
exchange forward contracts with a total notional amount of
approximately $471.7 million related to continuing
operations. The change in value of the foreign exchange forward
contracts resulting from a hypothetical 10% change in foreign
exchange rates would be offset by the remeasurement of the
related balance sheet items, the result of which would not be
significant.
As of November 30, 2004, the majority of our foreign
currency hedging contracts were scheduled to mature in
approximately three months and there were no material deferred
gains or losses. In addition, our international operations in
some instances act as a natural hedge because both operating
expenses and a portion of sales are denominated in local
currency. In these instances, although an unfavorable change in
the exchange rate of a foreign currency against the
U.S. dollar will result in lower sales when translated to
U.S. dollars, operating expenses will also be lower in
these circumstances. Although approximately 26.0% of our net
sales from continuing operations in the first quarter of fiscal
2005 were denominated in currencies other than the
U.S. dollar, we do not believe our total exposure to be
significant because of natural hedges.
|
|
|
We are exposed to interest rate fluctuations. |
The primary objective of our investment activities is to
preserve principal, while at the same time maximize yields
without significantly increasing risk. To achieve this
objective, we maintain our portfolio of cash equivalents in a
variety of securities, including government and corporate
obligations, certificates of deposit and money market funds. As
of November 30, 2004, substantially our entire total
portfolio was scheduled to mature in less than three months. A
hypothetical 10% change in interest rates would not have a
material effect on the fair value of our investment portfolios.
As of November 30, 2004, we had no cash equivalents that
were subject to interest rate risk (defined as risk of loss of
investment fair value due to interest rate movements). The fair
value of our cash equivalents approximated the carrying value as
of November 30, 2004.
Interest on long-term debt instruments is payable at fixed
rates. In addition, the amount of principal to be repaid at
maturity is also fixed. On November 15, 2002, we entered
into an interest rate swap transaction under which we pay
variable rates and we receive fixed rate. The interest swap
effectively converted $500 million of our long-term debt
with fixed interest rate into debt with variable rates of
interest. Our interest rate swap, which expires on
February 15, 2009, has a total notional amount of
$500 million and relates to our 9.625% $500 million
senior notes. Under this swap transaction we pay an interest
rate equal to the 3-month LIBOR rate plus a fixed spread. In
exchange, we receive fixed interest rates of 9.625%. Our
interest rate swap creates interest rate risk for us. A
hypothetical 50 basis point change in interest rates would
not have a material effect on our consolidated financial
position, results of operations and cash flows over the next
fiscal year.
|
|
|
Failure to attract and retain key personnel and skilled
associates could hurt our operations. |
Our continued success depends to a large extent upon the efforts
and abilities of key managerial and technical associates. Losing
the services of key personnel could harm us. Our business also
depends upon our ability to continue to attract key executives
and retain senior managers and skilled associates. Failure to do
so could harm our business.
|
|
|
Failure to comply with environmental regulations could
harm our business. |
As a company in the electronics manufacturing services industry,
we are subject to a variety of environmental regulations,
including those relating to the use, storage, discharge and
disposal of hazardous chemicals used during our manufacturing
process as well as air quality and water quality regulations,
restrictions on water use, and storm water regulations. We are
also required to comply with laws and regulations relating to
occupational safety and health, product disposal and product
content and labeling. Although we have never sustained any
significant loss as a result of non-compliance with such
regulations, any failure by us to comply with environmental laws
and regulations could result in liabilities or the suspension of
production. In addition, these laws and regulations could
restrict our ability to expand our facilities or require us to
acquire costly equipment or incur other significant costs to
comply with regulations.
47
We own and lease some contaminated sites (for some of which we
have been indemnified by third parties for required
remediation), sites for which there is a risk of the presence of
contamination, and sites with some levels of contamination for
which we may be liable and which may or may not ultimately
require any remediation. We have obtained environmental
insurance to reduce potential environmental liability exposures
posed by some of our operations and facilities. We believe,
based on our current knowledge, that the cost of any groundwater
or soil clean up that may be required at our facilities would
not materially harm our business, consolidated financial
condition and results of operations. Nevertheless, the process
of remediating contamination in soil and groundwater at
facilities is costly and cannot be estimated with high levels of
confidence, and there can be no assurance that the costs of such
activities would not harm our business, consolidated financial
condition and results of operations in the future.
In general, we are not directly responsible for compliance with
laws like Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment
(WEEE) and Restrictions of Hazardous Substances (RoHS).
These WEEE and RoHS laws generally apply to our OEM customers;
Solectron may, however, provide compliance-related services to
our customers upon request. Failing to have the capability of
delivering the products which comply with these present and
future environmental laws and regulations could restrict our
ability to expand facilities, or could require us to acquire
costly equipment or to incur other significant expenses to
comply with environmental regulations, and could impair our
relations with our customers. Moreover, to the extent we are
found non-compliant with any environmental laws and regulations
applicable to our activities, we may incur substantial fines and
penalties.

|
|
We may not be able to adequately protect or enforce our
intellectual property rights and could become involved in
intellectual property disputes. |
Our ability to effectively compete may be affected by our
ability to protect our proprietary information. We hold a number
of patents, patent applications, and various other trade secrets
and license rights. These patents, trade secrets, and license
rights may not provide meaningful protection for our
manufacturing processes and equipment innovations, or we might
find it necessary to initiate litigation proceedings to protect
our intellectual property rights. Any such litigation could be
lengthy and costly and could harm our consolidated financial
condition.
In the past we have been and may from time to time continue to
be, notified of claims that we may be infringing patents,
copyrights or other intellectual property rights owned by other
parties. In the event of an infringement claim, we may be
required to spend a significant amount of money to develop a
non-infringing alternative, to obtain licenses, and/or to defend
against the claim. We may not be successful in developing such
an alternative or obtaining a license on reasonable terms, if at
all. Any litigation, even where an infringement claim is without
merit, could result in substantial costs and diversion of
resources. Accordingly, the resolution or adjudication of
intellectual property disputes could have a material adverse
effect on our business, consolidated financial condition and
results of operations.

Our rating downgrades make it more expensive for us to
borrow money. |
On October 28, 2003 Standard and Poors downgraded our
senior unsecured debt rating to B+ with a stable
outlook. On October 31, 2003 Moodys downgraded our
senior unsecured debt rating to B1 with a stable
outlook. These rating downgrades increase our cost of capital
should we borrow under our revolving lines of credit, and may
make it more expensive for us to raise additional capital in the
future. Such capital raising activities may be on terms that may
not be acceptable to us or otherwise not available. On
June 22, 2004, Standard and Poors affirmed our senior
unsecured rating and revised our outlook to positive from stable.

Controls and Procedures |
|
|
|
Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. |
In the Form 10-Q for the three months ended
November 30, 2004, initially filed with the SEC on
January 5, 2005, Solectrons management, with the
participation of Solectrons Chief Executive Officer and
Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of
Solectrons disclosure controls and procedures as of
November 30, 2004. Based on that evaluation,
Solectrons Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial
Officer concluded that Solectrons disclosure controls and
procedures were effective as of November 30, 2004.
However, subsequent to that filing management determined that
there were circumstances in which certain financial statement
accounts were not being analyzed on a timely basis, resulting in
an accumulation of accounting errors that were not being
corrected in the appropriate period. The primary financial
statement accounts in which accounting errors were identified
included accounts payable and accrued liabilities, income taxes,
goodwill and intangible assets, and property and equipment.
Management has determined that this failure to comply with such
routine account reconciliation procedures was a deficiency in
our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in
Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) at November 30,
2004. This discovery and the resulting restatement are described
in the Explanatory Note and Note 2 to the consolidated
condensed financial statements contained herein.
Management also determined that the internal control deficiency
that resulted in this Restatement represents a material weakness
in our internal control over financial reporting, as defined by
the Public Company Accounting Oversight Boards Auditing
Standard No. 2. The Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board has defined material weakness as a significant
deficiency, or combination of significant deficiencies, that
results in more than a remote likelihood that a material
misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will
not be prevented or detected. Our conclusion that the
control issues surrounding financial reporting constituted a
material weakness means that, absent remediation of these
issues, there would exist a reasonable possibility that a
material misstatement in our financial statements might occur in
future periods.
Furthermore, on April 11, 2005, we received a letter
concerning this material weakness from our independent
registered public accounting firm, KPMG LLP, regarding these
same issues.
To date, subsequent to the initial filing of our Form 10-Q
for the three months ended November 30, 2004, we have taken
steps to improve our internal control over financial reporting,
including the following:
|
|
|
|
|
Account Analysis & Reconciliation:
Solectrons financial close checklist (FCC) has
been expanded to address the various account analysis and
reconciliation issues addressed in the Restatement. In
particular, the areas of general accounting and general ledger
analyses and intercompany accounts have been added to the FCC
beginning with the quarter ended February 28, 2005. In
addition, regional and corporate financial management will
provide additional levels of review concerning these issues. |
|
|
|
Foreign Exchange Translations: All locations with
significant foreign currency exchange transactions have been
identified and are now subject to compliance with the FCC noted
above, effective February 28, 2005. Solectron currently
anticipates that it will be eliminating a number of its legal
entities, thereby reducing related financial and accounting
complexity and simplifying the accounting treatment of these
types of items. |
|
|
|
Income Taxes: Previous issues relating to income
tax account roll-forwards have been identified and corrected. In
addition Solectrons management has migrated the tax
account roll-forwards to an automated system (CorpTax), which
will facilitate accurate and timely treatment of these items,
effective February 28, 2005. In addition, Solectrons
management has engaged a third party specialist to assist
Solectron personnel conducting comprehensive and detailed
reviews of Solectrons tax reporting and accounting. |
In addition, we have been engaged in an ongoing process of
identifying, documenting and testing our internal controls over
financial reporting in anticipation of our required compliance
with Section 404 of the
49
Sarbanes-Oxley Act at the end of fiscal 2005. We anticipate that
we will be making further changes in our internal controls as a
result of these efforts.
Although we have taken the remedial actions described above, we
have not yet had time to retest the affected controls in order
to ascertain whether the material weakness has been remediated.
Based on our progress, we do fully expect the material weakness
to be remediated on or before May 31, 2005 and to be able
to conclude that our internal control over financial reporting
and our disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of
that date.
In connection with the preparation and filing of this
Form 10-Q/ A, we reevaluated, under the supervision and
with the participation of our management, including our Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness
of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and
procedures as of the end of the fiscal quarter covered by this
report. Based on the material weakness described above, our
Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have each
concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not
effective as of November 30, 2004.
|
|
|
Changes in internal control over financial reporting. |
We did not make any changes to our internal control over
financial reporting during the quarter ended November 30,
2004 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to
materially affect, our internal control over financial
reporting. However, as discussed above, since November 30,
2004, we have made changes to our internal control over
financial reporting that have materially affected, or are
reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control
over financial reporting.
PART II. OTHER
INFORMATION
|
|
Item 1. |
Legal Proceedings |
Solectron is from time to time involved in various litigation
and legal matters, including the one described below. By
describing the particular matter set forth below, Solectron does
not intend to imply that it or its legal advisors have concluded
or believe that the outcome of this particular matter is or is
not likely to have a material adverse impact upon
Solectrons business or consolidated financial condition
and results of operations.
Solectron has settled the previously reported shareholder
derivative lawsuit entitled Lifshitz v. Cannon
et al., Case No. CV815693, filed in the
Santa Clara County, California Superior Court, on terms not
considered to be material to Solectron. Court approval of the
settlement terms was obtained on December 16, 2004.
On March 6, 2003, a putative shareholder class action
lawsuit was filed against Solectron and certain of its officers
in the United States District Court for the Northern District of
California alleging claims under Section 10(b) and 20(a) of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
Exchange Act), and Rule 10b-5 promulgated
thereunder. The case is entitled Abrams v. Solectron
Corporation et al., Case No. C-03-0986 CRB. The
complaint alleged that the defendants issued false and
misleading statements in certain press releases and SEC filings
issued between September 17, 2001 and September 26,
2002. In particular, plaintiff alleged that the defendants
failed to disclose and to properly account for excess and
obsolete inventory in the former Technology Solutions business
unit during the relevant time period. Additional complaints
making similar allegations were subsequently filed in the same
court, and pursuant to an order entered June 2, 2003, the
Court appointed lead counsel and plaintiffs to represent the
putative class in a single consolidated action. The Consolidated
Amended Complaint, filed September 8, 2003, alleges an
expanded class period of June 18, 2001 through
September 26, 2002, and purports to add a claim for
violation of Section 11 of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the Securities Act), on behalf of a
putative class of former shareholders of C-MAC Industries, Inc.,
who acquired Solectron stock pursuant to the October 19,
2001 Registration Statement filed in connection with
Solectrons acquisition of C-MAC Industries, Inc. In
addition, while the initial complaints focused on alleged
inventory issues at the former Technology Solutions business
50
unit, the Consolidated Amended Complaint adds allegations of
inadequate disclosure and failure to properly account for excess
and obsolete inventory at Solectrons other business units.
The complaint seeks an unspecified amount of damages on behalf
of the putative class. Solectron believes it has valid defenses
to the plaintiffs claims. There can be no assurance,
however, that the outcome of the lawsuit will be favorable to
Solectron or will not have a material adverse effect on
Solectrons business, consolidated financial condition and
results of operations. In addition, Solectron may be forced to
incur substantial litigation expenses in defending this
litigation.
