Includes currency on hand as well as demand deposits with banks or financial institutions. It also includes other kinds of accounts that have the general characteristics of demand deposits in that the Entity may deposit additional funds at any time and also effectively may withdraw funds at any time without prior notice or penalty. Cash equivalents, excluding items classified as marketable securities, include short-term, highly liquid investments that are both readily convertible to known amounts of cash, and so near their maturity that they present minimal risk of changes in value because of changes in interest rates.

For example, both a three-month US Treasury bill and a three-year Treasury note purchased three months from maturity qualify as cash equivalents. However, a Treasury note purchased three years ago does not become a cash equivalent when its remaining maturity is three months. Compensating balance arrangements that do not legally restrict the withdrawal or usage of cash amounts may be reported as Cash and Cash Equivalents, while legally restricted deposits held as compensating balances against borrowing arrangements, contracts entered into with others, or company statements of intention with regard to particular deposits should not be reported as cash and cash equivalents.

Basis of Presentation |
Note 1 — Basis of Presentation
The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet at July 1, 2011, the condensed
consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended July 1, 2011 and July 2, 2010, the
condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the three months ended July 1, 2011 and July 2,
2010, and the condensed consolidated statement of equity and comprehensive income for the three
months ended July 1, 2011 have been prepared by the management of ViaSat, Inc. (also referred to
hereafter as the Company or ViaSat), and have not been audited. These financial statements have
been prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal
year ended April 1, 2011 and, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments (consisting
only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s results for
the periods presented. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial
statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended April 1, 2011 included in the Company’s
Annual Report on Form 10-K. Interim operating results are not necessarily indicative of operating
results for the full year. The year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from
audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP).
The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements include the assets, liabilities and
results of operations of ViaSat, its wholly owned subsidiaries and TrellisWare Technologies, Inc.
(TrellisWare), a majority-owned subsidiary. All significant intercompany amounts have been
eliminated.
The Company’s fiscal year is the 52 or 53 weeks ending on the Friday closest to March 31 of
the specified year. For example, references to fiscal year 2012 refer to the fiscal year ending on
March 30, 2012. The Company’s quarters for fiscal year 2012 end on July 1, 2011, September 30,
2011, December 30, 2011 and March 30, 2012. This results in a 53 week fiscal year approximately
every four to five years. Fiscal years 2012 and 2011 are both 52 week years.
During the second quarter of fiscal year 2011, the Company completed the acquisition of
Stonewood Group Limited (Stonewood), a privately held company registered in England and Wales. This
acquisition was accounted for as a purchase and accordingly, the condensed consolidated financial
statements include the operating results of Stonewood from the date of acquisition (see Note 10).
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure
of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and reported amounts
of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates have been prepared on the basis of
the most current and best available information and actual results could differ from those
estimates. Significant estimates made by management include revenue recognition, stock-based
compensation, self-insurance reserves, allowance for doubtful accounts, warranty accrual, valuation
of goodwill and other intangible assets, patents, orbital slots and orbital licenses, software
development, property, equipment and satellites, long-lived assets, derivatives, contingencies and
income taxes including the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets.
Revenue recognition
A substantial portion of the Company’s revenues are derived from long-term contracts requiring
development and delivery of complex equipment built to customer specifications. Sales related to
long-term contracts are accounted for under the authoritative guidance for the
percentage-of-completion method of accounting (Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 605-35).
Sales and earnings under these contracts are recorded either based on the ratio of actual costs
incurred to date to total estimated costs expected to be incurred related to the contract or as
products are shipped under the units-of-delivery method. Anticipated losses on contracts are
recognized in full in the period in which losses become probable and estimable. Changes in
estimates of profit or loss on contracts are included in earnings on a cumulative basis in the
period the estimate is changed.
In the first quarter of fiscal year 2011, after the Company performed extensive integration
testing of numerous system components that had been separately developed as part of a government
satellite communication program, the Company recorded an additional forward loss of $8.5 million
for the significant additional labor and material costs for rework and testing required to complete
the program requirements and specifications. Including this program, during the three months ended
July 1, 2011 and July 2, 2010, the Company recorded losses of approximately $0.3 million and $8.7
million, respectively, related to loss contracts.
The Company also derives a substantial portion of its revenues from contracts and purchase
orders where revenue is recorded on delivery of products or performance of services in accordance
with the authoritative guidance for revenue recognition (ASC 605). Under this standard, the Company
recognizes revenue when an arrangement exists, prices are determinable, collectability is
reasonably assured and the goods or services have been delivered.
The Company also enters into certain leasing arrangements with customers and evaluates the
contracts in accordance with the authoritative guidance for leases (ASC 840). The Company’s
accounting for equipment leases involves specific determinations under the authoritative guidance
for leases, which often involve complex provisions and significant judgments. In accordance with
the authoritative guidance for leases, the Company classifies the transactions as sales type or
operating leases based on (1) review for transfers of ownership of the equipment to the lessee by
the end of the lease term, (2) review of the lease terms to determine if it contains an option to
purchase the leased equipment for a price which is sufficiently lower than the expected fair value
of the equipment at the date of the option, (3) review of the lease term to determine if it is
equal to or greater than 75% of the economic life of the equipment, and (4) review of the present
value of the minimum lease payments to determine if they are equal to or greater than 90% of the
fair market value of the equipment at the inception of the lease. Additionally, the Company
considers the cancelability of the contract and any related uncertainty of collections or risk in
recoverability of the lease investment at lease inception. Revenue from sales type leases is
recognized at the inception of the lease or when the equipment has been delivered and installed at
the customer site, if installation is required. Revenues from equipment rentals under operating
leases are recognized as earned over the lease term, which is generally on a straight-line basis.
Beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2012, the Company adopted Accounting Standards
Update (ASU) 2009-13 (ASU 2009-13), Revenue Recognition (Topic 605) Multiple-Deliverable Revenue
Arrangements, which updates ASC Topic 605-25, Revenue Recognition-Multiple element arrangements, of
the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) codification. ASU 2009-13 amended accounting
guidance for revenue recognition to eliminate the use of the residual method and requires entities
to allocate revenue using the relative selling price method. For substantially all of the
arrangements with multiple deliverables, the Company allocates revenue to each element based on a
selling price hierarchy at the arrangement inception. The selling price for each element is based
upon the following selling price hierarchy: vendor specific objective evidence (VSOE) if available,
third party evidence (TPE) if VSOE is not available, or estimated selling price (ESP) if neither
VSOE nor TPE are available (a description as to how the Company determines VSOE, TPE and ESP is
provided below). If a tangible hardware systems product includes software, the Company determines
whether the tangible hardware systems product and the software work together to deliver the
product’s essential functionality and, if so, the entire product is treated as a nonsoftware
deliverable. The total arrangement consideration is allocated to each separate unit of accounting
for each of the nonsoftware deliverables using the relative selling prices of each unit based on
the aforementioned selling price hierarchy. Revenue for each separate unit of accounting is
recognized when the applicable revenue recognition criteria for each element have been met.
To determine the selling price in multiple-element arrangements, the Company establishes VSOE
of the selling price using the price charged for a deliverable when sold separately and for
software license updates and product support and hardware systems support, based on the renewal
rates offered to customers. For nonsoftware multiple-element arrangements, TPE is established by
evaluating similar and/or interchangeable competitor products or services in standalone
arrangements with similarly situated customers and/or agreements. If the Company is unable to
determine the selling price because VSOE or TPE doesn’t exist, the Company determines ESP for the
purposes of allocating the arrangement by reviewing historical transactions, including transactions
whereby the deliverable was sold on a standalone basis and considers several other external and
internal factors including, but not limited to, pricing practices including discounting, margin
objectives, competition, the geographies in which the Company offers its products and services, the
type of customer (i.e., distributor, value added reseller, government agency and direct end user,
among others) and the stage of the product lifecycle. The determination of ESP considers the
Company’s pricing model and go-to-market strategy. As the Company, or its competitors’, pricing and
go-to-market strategies evolve, the Company may modify its pricing practices in the future, which
could result in changes to its determination of VSOE, TPE and ESP. As a result, the Company’s
future revenue recognition for multiple-element arrangements could differ materially from those in
the current period. The adoption of ASU 2009-13 did not have a material impact on the Company’s
financial condition or results of operations for the three months ended July 1, 2011.
In accordance with the authoritative guidance for shipping and handling fees and costs (ASC
605-45), the Company records shipping and handling costs billed to customers as a component of
revenues, and shipping and handling costs incurred by the Company for inbound and outbound freight
are recorded as a component of cost of revenues.
Collections in excess of revenues and deferred revenues represent cash collected from
customers in advance of revenue recognition and are recorded in accrued liabilities for obligations
within the next twelve months. Amounts for obligations extending beyond twelve months are recorded
within other liabilities in the condensed consolidated financial statements.
Contract costs on U.S. government contracts are subject to audit and negotiations with U.S.
government representatives. The Company’s incurred cost audits by the Defense Contract Audit Agency
(DCAA) have not been completed for fiscal year 2003 and subsequent fiscal years. Although the
Company has recorded contract revenues subsequent to fiscal year 2002 based upon an estimate of
costs that the Company believes will be approved upon final audit or review, the Company does not
know the outcome of any ongoing or future audits or reviews and adjustments, and if future
adjustments exceed the Company’s estimates, its profitability would be adversely affected. As of
July 1, 2011, the Company had $6.7 million in contract-related reserves for its estimate of
potential refunds to customers for potential cost adjustments on several multi-year U.S. government
cost reimbursable contracts (see Note 8).
Property, equipment and satellites
Equipment, computers and software, furniture and fixtures, the Company’s satellite under
construction and related gateway and networking equipment under construction are recorded at cost,
net of accumulated depreciation. The Company computes depreciation using the straight-line method
over the estimated useful lives of the assets ranging from two to twenty-four years. Leasehold
improvements are capitalized and amortized using the straight-line method over the shorter of the
lease term or the life of the improvement. Costs incurred for additions to property, equipment and
satellites, together with major renewals and betterments, are capitalized and depreciated over the
remaining life of the underlying asset. Costs incurred for maintenance, repairs and minor renewals
and betterments are charged to expense as incurred. When assets are sold or otherwise disposed of,
the cost and related accumulated depreciation or amortization are removed from the accounts and any
resulting gain or loss is recognized in operations.
Satellite construction costs, including launch services and insurance, are generally procured
under long-term contracts that provide for payments over the contract periods and are capitalized
as incurred. The Company is also constructing gateway facilities and network operations systems to
support the satellite under construction and these construction costs are capitalized as incurred.
Interest expense is capitalized on the carrying value of the satellite, related gateway and
networking equipment and other assets during the construction period, in accordance with the
authoritative guidance for the capitalization of interest (ASC 835-20). With respect to ViaSat-1
(the Company’s high-capacity satellite), related gateway and networking equipment and other assets
currently under construction, the Company capitalized $7.6 million of interest expense during the
three months ended July 1, 2011, and $6.0 million of interest expense during the three months ended
July 2, 2010.
As a result of the acquisition of WildBlue Holding, Inc. (WildBlue) in December 2009, the
Company acquired the WildBlue-1 satellite (which was placed into service in March 2007), an
exclusive prepaid lifetime capital lease of Ka-band capacity over the continental United States on
Telesat Canada’s Anik F2 satellite (which was placed into service in April 2005) and related
gateway and networking equipment on both satellites. The acquired assets also included the indoor
and outdoor customer premise equipment (CPE) units leased to subscribers under WildBlue’s retail
leasing program. The Company depreciates the satellites, gateway and networking equipment, CPE
units and related installation costs over their estimated useful lives. The total cost and
accumulated depreciation of CPE units included in property and equipment, net, as of July 1, 2011
was $64.5 million and $22.9 million, respectively. The total cost and accumulated depreciation of
CPE units included in property and equipment, net, as of April 1, 2011 was $61.6 million and $19.2
million, respectively.
Occasionally, the Company may enter into capital lease arrangements for various machinery,
equipment, computer-related equipment, software, furniture or fixtures. As of July 1, 2011, assets
under capital leases totaled approximately $3.1 million and accumulated amortization related to
such capital leases was $0.2 million. As of April 1, 2011, assets under capital leases totaled
approximately $3.1 million and there was an immaterial amount of accumulated amortization. The
Company records amortization of assets leased under capital lease arrangements within depreciation
expense.
Patents, orbital slots and other licenses
The Company capitalizes the costs of obtaining or acquiring patents, orbital slots and other
licenses. Amortization of intangible assets that have finite lives is provided for by the
straight-line method over the shorter of the legal or estimated economic life. Total capitalized
costs of $3.2 million related to patents were included in other assets as of July 1, 2011 and April
1, 2011. Accumulated amortization related to these patents was $0.3 million as of July 1, 2011 and
April 1, 2011. Amortization expense related to these patents was less than $0.1 million for the
three months ended July 1, 2011 and July 2, 2010. The Company had capitalized costs of $5.9 million
and $5.7 million related to acquiring and obtaining orbital slots and other licenses, included in
other assets as of July 1, 2011 and April 1, 2011, respectively. Accumulated amortization related
to certain other licenses placed in service during the first quarter of fiscal year 2012 was $0.1
million as of July 1, 2011 and there was no accumulated amortization as of April 1, 2011.
Amortization expense related to certain other licenses placed in service during the first quarter
of fiscal year 2012 was $0.1 million for the three months ended July 1, 2011 and there was no
amortization expense for the three months ended July 2, 2010. If a patent, orbital slot or orbital
license is rejected, abandoned or otherwise invalidated, the unamortized cost is expensed in that
period. During the three months ended July 1, 2011 and July 2, 2010, the Company did not write off
any material costs due to abandonment or impairment.
Software development
Costs of developing software for sale are charged to research and development expense when
incurred, until technological feasibility has been established. Software development costs incurred
from the time technological feasibility is reached until the product is available for general
release to customers are capitalized and reported at the lower of unamortized cost or net
realizable value. Once the product is available for general release, the software development costs
are amortized based on the ratio of current to future revenue for each product with an annual
minimum equal to straight-line amortization over the remaining estimated economic life of the
product, generally within five years. Capitalized costs, net, of $28.5 million and $24.5 million
related to software developed for resale were included in other assets as of July 1, 2011 and April
1, 2011, respectively. The Company capitalized $5.2 million and $4.0 million of costs related to
software developed for resale for the three months ended July 1, 2011 and July 2, 2010,
respectively. Amortization expense for software development costs was $1.2 million for the three
months ended July 1, 2011. There was no amortization expense of software development costs for the
three months ended July 2, 2010.
Self-insurance liabilities
The Company has self-insurance plans to retain a portion of the exposure for losses related to
employee medical benefits and workers’ compensation. The self-insurance policies provide for both
specific and aggregate stop-loss limits. The Company utilizes internal actuarial methods as well as
other historical information for the purpose of estimating ultimate costs for a particular policy
year. Based on these actuarial methods, along with currently available information and insurance
industry statistics, the Company’s self-insurance liability for the plans was $1.5 million as of
July 1, 2011 and April 1, 2011. The Company’s estimate, which is subject to inherent variability,
is based on average claims experience in the Company’s industry and its own experience in terms of
frequency and severity of claims, including asserted and unasserted claims incurred but not
reported, with no explicit provision for adverse fluctuation from year to year. This variability
may lead to ultimate payments being either greater or less than the amounts presented above.
Self-insurance liabilities have been classified as a current liability in accrued liabilities in
accordance with the estimated timing of the projected payments.
Indemnification provisions
In the ordinary course of business, the Company includes indemnification provisions in certain
of its contracts, generally relating to parties with which the Company has commercial relations.
Pursuant to these agreements, the Company will indemnify, hold harmless and agree to reimburse the
indemnified party for losses suffered or incurred by the indemnified party, including but not
limited to losses relating to third-party intellectual property claims. To date, there have not
been any costs incurred in connection with such indemnification clauses. The Company’s insurance
policies do not necessarily cover the cost of defending indemnification claims or providing
indemnification, so if a claim was filed against the Company by any party that the Company has
agreed to indemnify, the Company could incur substantial legal costs and damages. A claim would be
accrued when a loss is considered probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. At July 1,
2011 and April 1, 2011, no such amounts were accrued.
Simultaneously with the execution of the merger agreement relating to the acquisition of
WildBlue, the Company entered into an indemnification agreement dated September 30, 2009 with
several of the former stockholders of WildBlue pursuant to which such
former stockholders agreed to indemnify the Company for costs which result from, relate to or
arise out of potential claims and liabilities under various WildBlue contracts, an existing
appraisal action regarding WildBlue’s 2008 recapitalization, certain rights to acquire securities
of WildBlue and a severance agreement. Under the indemnification agreement, the Company is required
to pay up to $0.5 million and has recorded a liability of $0.5 million in the condensed
consolidated balance sheets as of July 1, 2011 and April 1, 2011 as an element of accrued
liabilities.
Noncontrolling interest
A noncontrolling interest represents the equity interest in a subsidiary that is not
attributable, either directly or indirectly, to the Company and is reported as equity of the
Company, separately from the Company’s controlling interest. Revenues, expenses, gains, losses, net
income or loss and other comprehensive income are reported in the condensed consolidated financial
statements at the consolidated amounts, which include the amounts attributable to both the
controlling and noncontrolling interest.
Common stock held in treasury
During the first three months of fiscal year 2012 and 2011, the Company issued 129,470 and
143,860 shares of common stock, respectively, based on the vesting terms of certain restricted
stock unit agreements. In order for employees to satisfy minimum statutory employee tax withholding
requirements related to the issuance of common stock underlying these restricted stock unit
agreements, the Company repurchased 48,918 and 56,368 shares of common stock with a total value of
$2.2 million and $1.8 million during the first three months of fiscal year 2012 and 2011,
respectively. Repurchased shares of common stock of 609,281 and 560,363 were held in treasury as of
July 1, 2011 and April 1, 2011, respectively.
Derivatives
The Company enters into foreign currency forward and option contracts from time to time to
hedge certain forecasted foreign currency transactions. Gains and losses arising from foreign
currency forward and option contracts not designated as hedging instruments are recorded in other
income (expense) as gains (losses) on derivative instruments. Gains and losses arising from the
effective portion of foreign currency forward and option contracts which are designated as
cash-flow hedging instruments are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) as
unrealized gains (losses) on derivative instruments until the underlying transaction affects the
Company’s earnings, at which time they are then recorded in the same income statement line as the
underlying transaction.
The fair values of the Company’s outstanding foreign currency forward contracts as of July 1,
2011 were as follows:
The fair values of the Company’s outstanding foreign currency forward contracts as of April 1,
2011 were as follows:
The notional value of foreign currency forward contracts outstanding as of July 1, 2011 and
April 1, 2011 was $2.9 million and $4.6 million, respectively.
The effects of foreign currency forward contracts in cash flow hedging relationships during
the three months ended July 1, 2011 were as follows:
The effects of foreign currency forward contracts in cash flow hedging relationships during
the three months ended July 2, 2010 were as follows:
At July 1, 2011, the estimated net existing income that is expected to be reclassified into
income within the next twelve months is approximately $0.1 million. Foreign currency forward
contracts usually mature within approximately twelve months from their inception. There were no
gains or losses from ineffectiveness of these derivative instruments recorded for the three months
ended July 1, 2011 and July 2, 2010.
Stock-based compensation
In accordance with the authoritative guidance for share-based payments (ASC 718), the Company
measures stock-based compensation cost at the grant date, based on the estimated fair value of the
award, and recognizes expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the
employee’s award. Stock-based compensation expense is recognized in the condensed consolidated
statement of operations for the three months ended July 1, 2011 and July 2, 2010 only for those
awards ultimately expected to vest, with forfeitures estimated at the date of grant. The
authoritative guidance for share-based payments requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of
grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those
estimates. The Company recognized $4.2 million of stock-based compensation expense for each of the
three months ended July 1, 2011 and July 2, 2010.
For the three months ended July 1, 2011 and July 2, 2010, the Company recorded no incremental
tax benefits from stock options exercised and restricted stock unit award vesting as the excess tax
benefit from stock options exercised and restricted stock unit award vesting increased the
Company’s net operating loss carryforward.
Income taxes
Accruals for uncertain tax positions are provided for in accordance with the authoritative
guidance for accounting for uncertainty in income taxes (ASC 740). The Company may recognize the
tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position
will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the
position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position should be
measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon
ultimate settlement. The authoritative guidance for accounting for uncertainty in income taxes also
provides guidance on derecognition of income tax assets and liabilities, classification of current
and deferred income tax assets and liabilities, accounting for interest and penalties associated
with tax positions, and income tax disclosures. The Company’s policy is to recognize interest
expense and penalties related to income tax matters as a component of income tax expense.
Current income tax expense is the amount of income taxes expected to be payable for the
current year. A deferred income tax asset or liability is established for the expected future tax
consequences resulting from differences in the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and
liabilities and for the expected future tax benefit to be derived from tax credit and loss
carryforwards. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of
management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not
be realized. Deferred income tax expense (benefit) is the net change during the year in the
deferred income tax asset or liability.
Recent authoritative guidance
In October 2009, the FASB issued authoritative guidance for revenue recognition with multiple
deliverables (ASU 2009-13, which updated ASC 605-25). This new guidance impacts the determination
of when the individual deliverables included in a multiple-element arrangement may be treated as
separate units of accounting. Additionally, this guidance modifies the manner in which the
transaction consideration is allocated across the separately identified deliverables by no longer
permitting the residual method of allocating arrangement consideration. The Company adopted this
guidance in the first quarter of fiscal year 2012 without a material impact on its consolidated
financial statements and disclosures.
In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (ASC 820): Amendments to
Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in GAAP and International
Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). The new authoritative guidance results in a consistent
definition of fair value and common requirements for measurement of and disclosure about fair value
between GAAP and IFRS. While many of the amendments to GAAP are not expected to have a significant
effect on practice, the new guidance changes some fair value measurement principles and disclosure
requirements. This guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the fourth quarter of fiscal
year 2012. Adoption of this authoritative guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the
Company’s consolidated financial statements and disclosures.
In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of
Comprehensive Income. The new authoritative guidance requires an entity to present the total of
comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive
income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but
consecutive statements. The new authoritative guidance eliminates the option to present the
components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of equity. This guidance will be
effective for the Company beginning in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2012 and should be applied
retrospectively; however, early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the
impact that the authoritative guidance may have on its consolidated financial statements and
disclosures.

Fair Value Measurements |
Note 3 — Fair Value Measurements
In accordance with the authoritative guidance for financial assets and liabilities measured at
fair value on a recurring basis (ASC 820), the Company prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair
value from market-based assumptions to entity specific assumptions:
The following tables present the Company’s hierarchy for its assets and liabilities measured
at fair value on a recurring basis as of July 1, 2011 and April 1, 2011:
The following section describes the valuation methodologies the Company uses to measure
financial instruments at fair value:
Cash equivalents — The Company’s cash equivalents consist of money market funds. Money market
funds are valued using quoted prices for identical assets in an active market with sufficient
volume and frequency of transactions (Level 1).
Foreign currency forward contracts — The Company uses derivative financial instruments to
manage foreign currency risk relating to foreign exchange rates. The Company does not use these
instruments for speculative or trading purposes. The Company’s objective is to reduce the risk to
earnings and cash flows associated with changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Derivative
instruments are recognized as either assets or liabilities in the accompanying condensed
consolidated financial statements and are measured at fair value. Gains and losses resulting from
changes in the fair values of those derivative instruments are recorded to earnings or other
comprehensive income (loss) depending on the use of the derivative instrument and whether it
qualifies for hedge accounting. The Company’s foreign currency forward contracts are valued using
quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or other inputs that are
observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
Long-term debt — The Company’s long-term debt consists of borrowings under the revolving
credit facility (the Credit Facility) reported at the borrowed outstanding amount, capital lease
obligations reported at the present value of future minimum lease payments with current accrued
interest, and the Company’s 8.875% Senior Notes due 2016 (the Notes) reported at amortized cost.
However, for disclosure purposes, the Company is required to measure the fair value of outstanding
debt on a recurring basis. The fair value of the Company’s outstanding long-term debt related to
the Notes is determined using quoted prices in active markets and was approximately $291.5 million
and $293.6 million as of July 1, 2011 and April 1, 2011, respectively. The fair value of the
Company’s long-term debt related to the Credit Facility approximates its carrying amount due to its
variable interest rate on the revolving line of credit, which approximates a market interest rate.
The fair value of the Company’s capital lease obligations is estimated at their carrying value
based on current rates.

Note 5 — Goodwill and Acquired Intangible Assets
During the first quarter of fiscal year 2012, the Company’s change in goodwill of
approximately $0.2 million related to the effect of foreign currency translation recorded within
the Company’s government systems and commercial networks segments. Other acquired intangible assets
are amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives of eight months to
ten years. Amortization expense related to other acquired intangible assets was $4.8 million and
$4.6 million for the three months ended July 1, 2011 and July 2, 2010, respectively.
The expected amortization expense of amortizable acquired intangible assets may change due to
the effects of foreign currency fluctuations as a result of the international businesses acquired.
Current and expected amortization expense for acquired intangible assets for each of the following
periods is as follows:

Senior Notes and Other Long-Term Debt |
Note 6 — Senior Notes and Other Long-Term Debt
Total long-term debt consisted of the following as of July 1, 2011 and April 1, 2011:
Senior Notes due 2016
In October 2009, the Company issued $275.0 million in principal amount of Notes in a private
placement to institutional buyers, which Notes were exchanged in May 2010 for substantially
identical Notes that had been registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The
Notes bear interest at the rate of 8.875% per year, payable semi-annually in cash in arrears, which
interest payments commenced in March 2010. The Notes were issued with an original issue discount of
1.24%, or $3.4 million. The Notes are recorded as long-term debt, net of original issue discount,
in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The original issue discount and deferred
financing cost associated with the issuance of the Notes is amortized to interest expense on a
straight-line basis over the term of the Notes.
The Notes are guaranteed on an unsecured senior basis by each of the Company’s existing and
future subsidiaries that guarantees the Credit Facility (the Guarantor Subsidiaries). The Notes and
the guarantees are the Company’s and the Guarantor Subsidiaries’ general senior unsecured
obligations and rank equally in right of payment with all of the Company’s existing and future
unsecured unsubordinated debt. The Notes and the guarantees are effectively junior in right of
payment to their existing and future secured debt, including under the Credit Facility (to the
extent of the value of the assets securing such debt), are structurally subordinated to all
existing and future liabilities (including trade payables) of the Company’s subsidiaries that are
not guarantors of the Notes, and are senior in right of payment to all of their existing and future
subordinated indebtedness.
The indenture governing the Notes limits, among other things, the Company’s and its restricted
subsidiaries’ ability to: incur, assume or guarantee additional debt; issue redeemable stock and
preferred stock; pay dividends, make distributions or redeem or repurchase capital stock; prepay,
redeem or repurchase subordinated debt; make loans and investments; grant or incur liens; restrict
dividends, loans or asset transfers from restricted subsidiaries; sell or otherwise dispose of
assets; enter into transactions with affiliates; reduce the Company’s satellite insurance; and
consolidate or merge with, or sell substantially all of their assets to, another person.
Prior to September 15, 2012, the Company may redeem a portion of the Notes at the redemption
price specified in the indenture, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to the
redemption date, from the net cash proceeds of specified equity offerings. The Company may also
redeem the Notes prior to September 15, 2012, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to
the principal amount thereof plus the applicable “make-whole” premium and any accrued and unpaid
interest, if any, thereon to the redemption date. The Notes may be redeemed, in whole or in part,
at any time from September 15, 2012 at a fixed redemption price that declines ratably over time,
plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to the redemption date. For more information
regarding the
applicable redemption prices, see “Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition of Results of Operations — Liquidity and Capital Resources” of the Company’s Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended July 1, 2011.
In the event a change of control occurs (as defined under the indenture), each holder will
have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or any part of such holder’s Notes at a
purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes repurchased
plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase (subject to the right of holders
of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment
date).
Credit Facility
As of July 1, 2011, the Credit Facility provided a revolving line of credit of $325.0 million
(including up to $35.0 million of letters of credit), with a maturity date of January 25, 2016.
Borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest, at the Company’s option, at either (1) the
highest of the Federal Funds rate plus 0.50%, the Eurodollar rate plus 1.00% or the administrative
agent’s prime rate as announced from time to time, or (2) at the Eurodollar rate plus, in the case
of each of (1) and (2), an applicable margin that is based on the ratio of the Company’s debt to
earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA). At July 1, 2011, the
weighted average effective interest rate on the Company’s outstanding borrowings under the Credit
Facility was 3.25%. The Company has capitalized certain amounts of interest expense on the Credit
Facility in connection with the construction of ViaSat-1, related gateway and networking equipment
and other assets currently under construction. The Credit Facility is guaranteed by certain of the
Company’s domestic subsidiaries and collateralized by substantially all of the Company’s and the
Guarantor Subsidiaries’ assets.
The Credit Facility contains financial covenants regarding a maximum leverage ratio, a maximum
senior secured leverage ratio and a minimum interest coverage ratio. In addition, the Credit
Facility contains covenants that restrict, among other things, the Company’s ability to sell
assets, make investments and acquisitions, make capital expenditures, grant liens, pay dividends
and make certain other restricted payments.
The Company was in compliance with its financial covenants under the Credit Facility as of
July 1, 2011. At July 1, 2011, the Company had $75.0 million in principal amount of outstanding
borrowings under the Credit Facility and $10.2 million outstanding under standby letters of credit,
leaving borrowing availability under the Credit Facility as of July 1, 2011 of $239.8 million.
Capital leases
Occasionally, the Company may enter into capital lease agreements for various machinery,
equipment, computer-related equipment, software, furniture or fixtures. As of July 1, 2011 and
April 1, 2011, the Company had approximately $3.1 million outstanding under capital leases payable
over a weighted average period of 36 months, due fiscal years 2014 through 2015. These lease
agreements bear interest at a weighted average rate of 4.69% and can be extended on a
month-to-month basis after the original term.

Note 7 — Product Warranty
The Company provides limited warranties on its products for periods of up to five years. The
Company records a liability for its warranty obligations when products are shipped or they are
included in long-term construction contracts based upon an estimate of expected warranty costs.
Amounts expected to be incurred within twelve months are classified as a current liability. For
mature products, the warranty cost estimates are based on historical experience with the particular
product. For newer products that do not have a history of warranty cost, the Company bases its
estimates on its experience with the technology involved and the type of failures that may occur.
It is possible that the Company’s underlying assumptions will not reflect the actual experience and
in that case, future adjustments will be made to the recorded warranty obligation. The following
table reflects the change in the Company’s warranty accrual during the three months ended July 1,
2011 and July 2, 2010.

Commitments and Contingencies |
Note 8 — Commitments and Contingencies
The Company is involved in a variety of claims, suits, investigations and proceedings arising
in the ordinary course of business, including actions with respect to intellectual property claims,
breach of contract claims, labor and employment claims, tax and other matters. Although claims,
suits, investigations and proceedings are inherently uncertain and their results cannot be
predicted with certainty, the Company believes that the resolution of its current pending matters
will not have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations
or liquidity.
The Company has contracts with various U.S. government agencies. Accordingly, the Company is
routinely subject to audit and review by the DCAA and other U.S. government agencies for its
performance on government contracts, indirect rates and pricing practices, accounting and
management internal control systems, and compliance with applicable contracting and procurement
laws, regulations and standards. Such audits or reviews could result in significant customer
refunds, penalties and sanctions against the Company, and could adversely affect the Company’s
ability to receive timely payment on contracts, perform contracts or compete for contracts with the
U.S. Government. The Company’s incurred cost audits by the DCAA have not been completed for fiscal
year 2003 and subsequent fiscal years. Although the Company has recorded contract revenues
subsequent to fiscal year 2002 based upon an estimate of costs that the Company believes will be
approved upon final audit or review, the Company does not know the outcome of any ongoing or future
audits or reviews and adjustments, and if future adjustments exceed the Company’s estimates, its
profitability would be adversely affected. As of July 1, 2011, the Company had $6.7 million in
contract-related reserves for its estimate of potential refunds to customers for potential cost
adjustments on several multi-year U.S. government cost reimbursable contracts. This reserve is
classified as either an element of accrued liabilities or as a reduction of unbilled accounts
receivable based on status of the related contracts.

Note 9 — Income Taxes
The Company currently
estimates its annual effective income tax rate to be a benefit of
approximately 0.8% for fiscal year 2012, compared to the actual zero effective income tax rate in
fiscal year 2011. The estimated annual effective income tax rate reflects the December
31, 2011 expiration of the federal research and development tax credit. If the federal research and
development tax credit is reinstated, the Company may have a lower annual effective tax rate for
fiscal year 2012, and the amount of any such tax rate reduction will depend on the effective date
of any such reinstatement, the terms of the reinstatement, as well as the amount of eligible
research and development expenses in the reinstated period. The estimated effective tax rate is
different from the expected statutory rate primarily due to research and development tax credits.
For the three months ended July 1, 2011, the Company’s gross unrecognized tax benefits
increased by $0.9 million. In the next twelve months, it is reasonably possible that the amount of
unrecognized tax benefits will decrease by up to approximately $3.1 million as a result of the
expiration of the statute of limitations or settlements with tax authorities for previously filed
tax returns.

Stonewood acquisition
On July 8, 2010, the Company completed the acquisition of all outstanding shares of the parent
company of Stonewood. Stonewood is a leader in the design, manufacture and delivery of data at rest
encryption products and services. Stonewood products are used to encrypt data on computer hard
drives so that a lost or stolen laptop does not result in the compromise of classified information
or the loss of intellectual property. These products enhance the Company’s current encryption
security offerings within the Company’s information assurance products in the government systems
segment. The purchase price of approximately $18.8 million was comprised of $4.6 million related to
the fair value of 144,962 shares of the Company’s common stock issued at the closing and $14.2
million in cash consideration paid to former Stonewood stockholders. The $14.2 million in cash
consideration paid to the former Stonewood stockholders less cash acquired of $0.7 million resulted
in a net cash outlay of approximately $13.5 million. The acquisition was accounted for as a
purchase and accordingly, the condensed consolidated financial statements include the operating
results of Stonewood from the date of acquisition. The purchase price allocation is preliminary due
to pending resolution of certain Stonewood tax attributes.

Segment Information |
Note 11 — Segment Information
The Company’s reporting segments, comprised of the government systems, commercial networks and
satellite services segments, are primarily distinguished by the type of customer and the related
contractual requirements. The Company’s government systems segment develops and produces
network-centric, IP-based secure government communications systems, products and solutions. The
more regulated government environment is subject to unique contractual requirements and possesses
economic characteristics which differ from the commercial networks and satellite services segments.
The Company’s commercial networks segment develops and produces a variety of advanced end-to-end
satellite communication systems and ground networking equipment and products. The Company’s
satellite services segment complements both the government systems and commercial networks segments
by providing wholesale and retail satellite-based broadband internet services in the United States
via the Company’s satellite and capacity agreements, as well as managed network services for the
satellite communication systems of the Company’s consumer, enterprise and mobile broadband
customers. The Company’s satellite services segment includes the Company’s acquired WildBlue
business and the Company’s ViaSat-1 satellite-related activities. The Company’s segments are
determined consistent with the way management currently organizes and evaluates financial
information internally for making operating decisions and assessing performance.
As discussed further in Note 1, included in the government systems segment operating profit
for the three months ended July 2, 2010 is an $8.5 million forward loss recorded on a government

Certain Relationships and Related-Party Transactions |
Note 12 — Certain Relationships and Related-Party Transactions
Michael Targoff, a director of the Company since February 2003, currently serves as the Chief
Executive Officer and the Vice Chairman of the board of directors of Loral Space & Communications,
Inc. (Loral), the parent of Space Systems/Loral, Inc. (SS/L), and is also a director of Telesat
Holdings, Inc., a joint venture company formed by Loral and the Public Sector Pension Investment
Board to acquire Telesat Canada in October 2007. John Stenbit, a director of the Company since
August 2004, also currently serves on the board of directors of Loral.
In January 2008, the Company entered into a satellite construction contract with SS/L under
which the Company purchased a new high-capacity Ka-band spot-beam satellite (ViaSat-1) designed by
the Company and currently under construction by SS/L for approximately $209.1 million, subject to
purchase price adjustments based on satellite performance. In addition, the Company entered into a
beam sharing agreement with Loral, whereby Loral is responsible for contributing 15% of the total
costs (estimated at approximately $57.6 million) associated with the ViaSat-1 satellite project.
The Company’s purchase of the ViaSat-1 satellite from SS/L was approved by the disinterested
members of the Company’s Board of Directors, after a determination by the disinterested members of
the Company’s Board that the terms and conditions of the purchase were fair to and in the best
interests of the Company and its stockholders. On March 1, 2011, Loral entered into agreements with
Telesat Canada pursuant to which Loral assigned to Telesat Canada and Telesat Canada assumed from
Loral all of Loral’s rights and obligations with respect to the Canadian beams on ViaSat-1.
During the three months ended July 1, 2011 and July 2, 2010, under the satellite construction
contract, the Company paid $1.3 million and $10.6 million, respectively, to SS/L. During the three
months ended July 1, 2011 and July 2, 2010, the Company also received less than $0.1 million and
$3.8 million of cash, respectively, from SS/L under the beam sharing agreement with Loral. All
other amounts related to SS/L under the ViaSat-1 related satellite contracts were not material.
From time to time, the Company enters into various contracts in the ordinary course of
business with SS/L and Telesat Canada. Under a contract with SS/L, the Company recognized $1.5
million and $0.1 million in revenue during the three months ended July 1, 2011 and July 2, 2010,
respectively, related to a contract with SS/L. Collections in excess of revenues and deferred
revenues related to a contract with SS/L were $0.3 million and $1.4 million as of July 1, 2011 and
April 1, 2011, respectively. The Company received cash of $1.0 million and $0.8 million from
Telesat Canada during the three months ended July 1, 2011 and July 2, 2010, respectively. During
the three months ended July 1, 2011 and July 2, 2010, the Company paid $2.4 million and $2.8
million, respectively, to Telesat Canada. All other amounts related to SS/L and Telesat Canada,
excluding activities under the ViaSat-1 related satellite contracts, were not material.

Financial Statements of Parent and Subsidiary Guarantors |
Note 13 — Financial Statements of Parent and Subsidiary Guarantors
In October 2009, the Company issued $275.0 million in principal amount of Notes in a private
placement to institutional buyers. The Notes were exchanged in May 2010 for substantially identical
Notes that had been registered with the SEC. The Notes are jointly and severally guaranteed on a
full and unconditional basis by each of the Guarantor Subsidiaries, which are 100% owned by the
Company. The indenture governing the Notes limits, among other things, the Company’s and its
restricted subsidiaries’ ability to: incur, assume or guarantee additional debt; issue redeemable
stock and preferred stock; pay dividends, make distributions or redeem or repurchase capital stock;
prepay, redeem or repurchase subordinated debt; make loans and investments; grant or incur liens;
restrict dividends, loans or asset transfers from restricted subsidiaries; sell or otherwise
dispose of assets; enter into transactions with affiliates; reduce the Company’s satellite
insurance; and consolidate or merge with, or sell substantially all of their assets to, another
person.
The following supplemental financial information sets forth, on a condensed consolidating
basis, the balance sheets, statements of operations and statements of cash flows for the Company
(as “Issuing Parent Company”), the Guarantor Subsidiaries, the non-guarantor subsidiaries and total

Basis of Presentation (Policies) [Abstract] | |
Revenue recognition percentage of completion method |
Revenue recognition
A substantial portion of the Company’s revenues are derived from long-term contracts requiring
development and delivery of complex equipment built to customer specifications. Sales related to
long-term contracts are accounted for under the authoritative guidance for the
percentage-of-completion method of accounting (Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 605-35).
Sales and earnings under these contracts are recorded either based on the ratio of actual costs
incurred to date to total estimated costs expected to be incurred related to the contract or as
products are shipped under the units-of-delivery method. Anticipated losses on contracts are
recognized in full in the period in which losses become probable and estimable. Changes in
estimates of profit or loss on contracts are included in earnings on a cumulative basis in the
period the estimate is changed.
|
Revenue recognition sale of goods and services |
The Company also derives a substantial portion of its revenues from contracts and purchase
orders where revenue is recorded on delivery of products or performance of services in accordance
with the authoritative guidance for revenue recognition (ASC 605). Under this standard, the Company
recognizes revenue when an arrangement exists, prices are determinable, collectability is
reasonably assured and the goods or services have been delivered.
|
Revenue recognition leases |
The Company also enters into certain leasing arrangements with customers and evaluates the
contracts in accordance with the authoritative guidance for leases (ASC 840). The Company’s
accounting for equipment leases involves specific determinations under the authoritative guidance
for leases, which often involve complex provisions and significant judgments. In accordance with
the authoritative guidance for leases, the Company classifies the transactions as sales type or
operating leases based on (1) review for transfers of ownership of the equipment to the lessee by
the end of the lease term, (2) review of the lease terms to determine if it contains an option to
purchase the leased equipment for a price which is sufficiently lower than the expected fair value
of the equipment at the date of the option, (3) review of the lease term to determine if it is
equal to or greater than 75% of the economic life of the equipment, and (4) review of the present
value of the minimum lease payments to determine if they are equal to or greater than 90% of the
fair market value of the equipment at the inception of the lease. Additionally, the Company
considers the cancelability of the contract and any related uncertainty of collections or risk in
recoverability of the lease investment at lease inception. Revenue from sales type leases is
recognized at the inception of the lease or when the equipment has been delivered and installed at
the customer site, if installation is required. Revenues from equipment rentals under operating
leases are recognized as earned over the lease term, which is generally on a straight-line basis.
|
Revenue recognition multiple element arrangements |
Beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2012, the Company adopted Accounting Standards
Update (ASU) 2009-13 (ASU 2009-13), Revenue Recognition (Topic 605) Multiple-Deliverable Revenue
Arrangements, which updates ASC Topic 605-25, Revenue Recognition-Multiple element arrangements, of
the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) codification. ASU 2009-13 amended accounting
guidance for revenue recognition to eliminate the use of the residual method and requires entities
to allocate revenue using the relative selling price method. For substantially all of the
arrangements with multiple deliverables, the Company allocates revenue to each element based on a
selling price hierarchy at the arrangement inception. The selling price for each element is based
upon the following selling price hierarchy: vendor specific objective evidence (VSOE) if available,
third party evidence (TPE) if VSOE is not available, or estimated selling price (ESP) if neither
VSOE nor TPE are available (a description as to how the Company determines VSOE, TPE and ESP is
provided below). If a tangible hardware systems product includes software, the Company determines
whether the tangible hardware systems product and the software work together to deliver the
product’s essential functionality and, if so, the entire product is treated as a nonsoftware
deliverable. The total arrangement consideration is allocated to each separate unit of accounting
for each of the nonsoftware deliverables using the relative selling prices of each unit based on
the aforementioned selling price hierarchy. Revenue for each separate unit of accounting is
recognized when the applicable revenue recognition criteria for each element have been met.
To determine the selling price in multiple-element arrangements, the Company establishes VSOE
of the selling price using the price charged for a deliverable when sold separately and for
software license updates and product support and hardware systems support, based on the renewal
rates offered to customers. For nonsoftware multiple-element arrangements, TPE is established by
evaluating similar and/or interchangeable competitor products or services in standalone
arrangements with similarly situated customers and/or agreements. If the Company is unable to
determine the selling price because VSOE or TPE doesn’t exist, the Company determines ESP for the
purposes of allocating the arrangement by reviewing historical transactions, including transactions
whereby the deliverable was sold on a standalone basis and considers several other external and
internal factors including, but not limited to, pricing practices including discounting, margin
objectives, competition, the geographies in which the Company offers its products and services, the
type of customer (i.e., distributor, value added reseller, government agency and direct end user,
among others) and the stage of the product lifecycle. The determination of ESP considers the
Company’s pricing model and go-to-market strategy. As the Company, or its competitors’, pricing and
go-to-market strategies evolve, the Company may modify its pricing practices in the future, which
could result in changes to its determination of VSOE, TPE and ESP. As a result, the Company’s
future revenue recognition for multiple-element arrangements could differ materially from those in
the current period. The adoption of ASU 2009-13 did not have a material impact on the Company’s
financial condition or results of operations for the three months ended July 1, 2011.
|
Property, equipment and satellites |
Equipment, computers and software, furniture and fixtures, the Company’s satellite under
construction and related gateway and networking equipment under construction are recorded at cost,
net of accumulated depreciation. The Company computes depreciation using the straight-line method
over the estimated useful lives of the assets ranging from two to twenty-four years. Leasehold
improvements are capitalized and amortized using the straight-line method over the shorter of the
lease term or the life of the improvement. Costs incurred for additions to property, equipment and
satellites, together with major renewals and betterments, are capitalized and depreciated over the
remaining life of the underlying asset. Costs incurred for maintenance, repairs and minor renewals
and betterments are charged to expense as incurred. When assets are sold or otherwise disposed of,
the cost and related accumulated depreciation or amortization are removed from the accounts and any
resulting gain or loss is recognized in operations.
|
Patents, orbital slots and other licenses |
Patents, orbital slots and other licenses
The Company capitalizes the costs of obtaining or acquiring patents, orbital slots and other
licenses. Amortization of intangible assets that have finite lives is provided for by the
straight-line method over the shorter of the legal or estimated economic life. Total capitalized
costs of $3.2 million related to patents were included in other assets as of July 1, 2011 and April
1, 2011. Accumulated amortization related to these patents was $0.3 million as of July 1, 2011 and
April 1, 2011. Amortization expense related to these patents was less than $0.1 million for the
three months ended July 1, 2011 and July 2, 2010. The Company had capitalized costs of $5.9 million
and $5.7 million related to acquiring and obtaining orbital slots and other licenses, included in
other assets as of July 1, 2011 and April 1, 2011, respectively. Accumulated amortization related
to certain other licenses placed in service during the first quarter of fiscal year 2012 was $0.1
million as of July 1, 2011 and there was no accumulated amortization as of April 1, 2011.
Amortization expense related to certain other licenses placed in service during the first quarter
of fiscal year 2012 was $0.1 million for the three months ended July 1, 2011 and there was no
amortization expense for the three months ended July 2, 2010. If a patent, orbital slot or orbital
license is rejected, abandoned or otherwise invalidated, the unamortized cost is expensed in that
period. During the three months ended July 1, 2011 and July 2, 2010, the Company did not write off
any material costs due to abandonment or impairment.
|
Software development |
Software development
Costs of developing software for sale are charged to research and development expense when
incurred, until technological feasibility has been established. Software development costs incurred
from the time technological feasibility is reached until the product is available for general
release to customers are capitalized and reported at the lower of unamortized cost or net
realizable value. Once the product is available for general release, the software development costs
are amortized based on the ratio of current to future revenue for each product with an annual
minimum equal to straight-line amortization over the remaining estimated economic life of the
product, generally within five years. Capitalized costs, net, of $28.5 million and $24.5 million
related to software developed for resale were included in other assets as of July 1, 2011 and April
1, 2011, respectively. The Company capitalized $5.2 million and $4.0 million of costs related to
software developed for resale for the three months ended July 1, 2011 and July 2, 2010,
respectively. Amortization expense for software development costs was $1.2 million for the three
months ended July 1, 2011. There was no amortization expense of software development costs for the
three months ended July 2, 2010.
|
Self-insurance liabilities |
Self-insurance liabilities
The Company has self-insurance plans to retain a portion of the exposure for losses related to
employee medical benefits and workers’ compensation. The self-insurance policies provide for both
specific and aggregate stop-loss limits. The Company utilizes internal actuarial methods as well as
other historical information for the purpose of estimating ultimate costs for a particular policy
year. Based on these actuarial methods, along with currently available information and insurance
industry statistics, the Company’s self-insurance liability for the plans was $1.5 million as of
July 1, 2011 and April 1, 2011. The Company’s estimate, which is subject to inherent variability,
is based on average claims experience in the Company’s industry and its own experience in terms of
frequency and severity of claims, including asserted and unasserted claims incurred but not
reported, with no explicit provision for adverse fluctuation from year to year. This variability
may lead to ultimate payments being either greater or less than the amounts presented above.
Self-insurance liabilities have been classified as a current liability in accrued liabilities in
accordance with the estimated timing of the projected payments.
|
Indemnification provisions |
Indemnification provisions
In the ordinary course of business, the Company includes indemnification provisions in certain
of its contracts, generally relating to parties with which the Company has commercial relations.
Pursuant to these agreements, the Company will indemnify, hold harmless and agree to reimburse the
indemnified party for losses suffered or incurred by the indemnified party, including but not
limited to losses relating to third-party intellectual property claims. To date, there have not
been any costs incurred in connection with such indemnification clauses. The Company’s insurance
policies do not necessarily cover the cost of defending indemnification claims or providing
indemnification, so if a claim was filed against the Company by any party that the Company has
agreed to indemnify, the Company could incur substantial legal costs and damages. A claim would be
accrued when a loss is considered probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. At July 1,
2011 and April 1, 2011, no such amounts were accrued.
|
Noncontrolling interest |
Noncontrolling interest
A noncontrolling interest represents the equity interest in a subsidiary that is not
attributable, either directly or indirectly, to the Company and is reported as equity of the
Company, separately from the Company’s controlling interest. Revenues, expenses, gains, losses, net
income or loss and other comprehensive income are reported in the condensed consolidated financial
statements at the consolidated amounts, which include the amounts attributable to both the
controlling and noncontrolling interest.
|
Derivatives |
Derivatives
The Company enters into foreign currency forward and option contracts from time to time to
hedge certain forecasted foreign currency transactions. Gains and losses arising from foreign
currency forward and option contracts not designated as hedging instruments are recorded in other
income (expense) as gains (losses) on derivative instruments. Gains and losses arising from the
effective portion of foreign currency forward and option contracts which are designated as
cash-flow hedging instruments are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) as
unrealized gains (losses) on derivative instruments until the underlying transaction affects the
Company’s earnings, at which time they are then recorded in the same income statement line as the
underlying transaction.
|
Stock-based compensation |
Stock-based compensation
In accordance with the authoritative guidance for share-based payments (ASC 718), the Company
measures stock-based compensation cost at the grant date, based on the estimated fair value of the
award, and recognizes expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the
employee’s award. Stock-based compensation expense is recognized in the condensed consolidated
statement of operations for the three months ended July 1, 2011 and July 2, 2010 only for those
awards ultimately expected to vest, with forfeitures estimated at the date of grant. The
authoritative guidance for share-based payments requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of
grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those
estimates. The Company recognized $4.2 million of stock-based compensation expense for each of the
three months ended July 1, 2011 and July 2, 2010.
|
Income taxes |
Income taxes
Accruals for uncertain tax positions are provided for in accordance with the authoritative
guidance for accounting for uncertainty in income taxes (ASC 740). The Company may recognize the
tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position
will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the
position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position should be
measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon
ultimate settlement. The authoritative guidance for accounting for uncertainty in income taxes also
provides guidance on derecognition of income tax assets and liabilities, classification of current
and deferred income tax assets and liabilities, accounting for interest and penalties associated
with tax positions, and income tax disclosures. The Company’s policy is to recognize interest
expense and penalties related to income tax matters as a component of income tax expense.
Current income tax expense is the amount of income taxes expected to be payable for the
current year. A deferred income tax asset or liability is established for the expected future tax
consequences resulting from differences in the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and
liabilities and for the expected future tax benefit to be derived from tax credit and loss
carryforwards. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of

Revenue recognition shipping and handling fees and costs |
In accordance with the authoritative guidance for shipping and handling fees and costs (ASC
605-45), the Company records shipping and handling costs billed to customers as a component of

are recorded as a component of cost of revenues.
|
Revenue recognition collections in excess of revenues and deferred revenues |

Fair value measurements policy |
In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (ASC 820): Amendments to
Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in GAAP and International
Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). The new authoritative guidance results in a consistent
definition of fair value and common requirements for measurement of and disclosure about fair value
between GAAP and IFRS. While many of the amendments to GAAP are not expected to have a significant
effect on practice, the new guidance changes some fair value measurement principles and disclosure
requirements. This guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the fourth quarter of fiscal
year 2012. Adoption of this authoritative guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the
Company’s consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

Accounting Standards Update No 2009-13 [Member]
|

Recent authoritative guidance | |||
Description of new accounting pronouncements | In October 2009, the FASB issued authoritative guidance for revenue recognition with multiple deliverables (ASU 2009-13, which updated ASC 605-25). This new guidance impacts the determination of when the individual deliverables included in a multiple-element arrangement may be treated as separate units of accounting. Additionally, this guidance modifies the manner in which the transaction consideration is allocated across the separately identified deliverables by no longer permitting the residual method of allocating arrangement consideration. The Company adopted this guidance in the first quarter of fiscal year 2012 without a material impact on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures. | ||

Recent authoritative guidance | |||
Description of new accounting pronouncements | In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (ASC 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). The new authoritative guidance results in a consistent definition of fair value and common requirements for measurement of and disclosure about fair value between GAAP and IFRS. While many of the amendments to GAAP are not expected to have a significant effect on practice, the new guidance changes some fair value measurement principles and disclosure requirements. This guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2012. Adoption of this authoritative guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and disclosures. | ||

Includes currency on hand as well as demand deposits with banks or financial institutions. It also includes other kinds of accounts that have the general characteristics of demand deposits in that the Entity may deposit additional funds at any time and also effectively may withdraw funds at any time without prior notice or penalty. Cash equivalents, excluding items classified as marketable securities, include short-term, highly liquid investments that are both readily convertible to known amounts of cash, and so near their maturity that they present minimal risk of changes in value because of changes in interest rates. Generally, only investments with original maturities of three months or less qualify under that definition. Original maturity means original maturity to the entity holding the investment. For example, both a three-month US Treasury bill and a three-year Treasury note purchased three months from maturity qualify as cash equivalents. However, a Treasury note purchased three years ago does not become a cash equivalent when its remaining maturity is three months. Compensating balance arrangements that do not legally restrict the withdrawal or usage of cash amounts may be reported as Cash and Cash Equivalents, while legally restricted deposits held as compensating balances against borrowing arrangements, contracts entered into with others, or company statements of intention with regard to particular deposits should not be reported as cash and cash equivalents.

Includes currency on hand as well as demand deposits with banks or financial institutions. It also includes other kinds of accounts that have the general characteristics of demand deposits in that the Entity may deposit additional funds at any time and also effectively may withdraw funds at any time without prior notice or penalty. Cash equivalents, excluding items classified as marketable securities, include short-term, highly liquid investments that are both readily convertible to known amounts of cash, and so near their maturity that they present minimal risk of changes in value because of changes in interest rates. Generally, only investments with original maturities of three months or less qualify under that definition. Original maturity means original maturity to the entity holding the investment. For example, both a three-month US Treasury bill and a three-year Treasury note purchased three months from maturity qualify as cash equivalents. However, a Treasury note purchased three years ago does not become a cash equivalent when its remaining maturity is three months. Compensating balance arrangements that do not legally restrict the withdrawal or usage of cash amounts may be reported as Cash and Cash Equivalents, while legally restricted deposits held as compensating balances against borrowing arrangements, contracts entered into with others, or company statements of intention with regard to particular deposits should not be reported as cash and cash equivalents.
