Highlight of Business Operations:

Intangible asset amortization expenses were $4.4 million and $1.8 million for the three months ended December 25, 2010 and December 26, 2009, respectively. Intangible asset amortization expenses were $10.5 million and $3.7 million for the six months ended December 25, 2010 and December 26, 2009, respectively. The increases in intangible asset amortization expenses is primarily attributable to the acquisition of Phyworks in the first quarter of fiscal year 2011 and the acquisition of Teridian in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2010.

Interest and other (expense) income, net, was $(4.1) million and $3.6 million for the three months ended December 25, 2010 and December 26, 2009, respectively. This increase in expense, was primarily driven by increased foreign exchange losses of $2.8 million, increased interest expenses of $2.7 million related to long-term debt obligations and decreased interest income of $0.8 million due to lower average invested cash and cash equivalents and lower average interest rates.

Interest and other (expense) income, net, was $(7.8) million and $5.5 million for the six months ended December 25, 2010 and December 26, 2009, respectively.

In the three and six months ended December 25, 2010, the Company recorded an income tax provision of $38.3 million and $96.2 million respectively, compared to an income tax provision of $54.1 million and $104.2 million in the three and six months ended December 26, 2009, respectively.

Cash from operations for the six months ended December 25, 2010 increased by approximately $189.0 million compared with the six months ended December 26, 2009. This is due to increases in net income of $126.6 million, a reduction in the receivables balance over the six months ended December 25, 2010 as compared to an increase in the corresponding period and increases of $77.5 million and $28.0 million relating to deferred tax provision and depreciation and amortization expenses, respectively.

Cash used in investing activities increased by $189.3 million for the six months ended December 25, 2010 compared with the six months ended December 26, 2009. The increase is primarily due to maturity of short-term investments of $100.2 million during the six months ended December 26, 2009, as the Company shifted its investment portfolio to money market funds, and cash used for acquisitions, which increased to $73.1 million during the six months ended December 25, 2010 as compared with $4.0 million during the six months ended December 26, 2009.
