Magma Design Automation Inc. (LAVA, Financial) filed Quarterly Report for the period ended 2011-01-30.
Magma Design Automation Inc. has a market cap of $427.9 million; its shares were traded at around $6.48 with a P/E ratio of 216 and P/S ratio of 3.5.
On July 2, 2010 we exercised the purchased put option and liquidated the $16.8 million ARS. A gain of $38,000 on liquidation is recorded in Valuation gain, net in the consolidated statements of operation for the nine months ended January 30, 2011.
We review all of our investments periodically for impairment; however, for non-marketable equity securities, the fair value analysis requires significant judgment. This analysis includes assessment of each investees financial condition, the business outlook for its products and technology, its projected results and cash flows, the likelihood of obtaining subsequent rounds of financing and the impact of any relevant contractual equity preferences held by us or others. If an investee obtains additional funding at a valuation lower than our carrying amount, we presume that the investment is other than temporarily impaired, unless specific facts and circumstances indicate otherwise, such as when we hold contractual rights that give us a preference over the rights of other investors. As the equity markets have experienced volatility over the past few years, we have experienced substantial impairments in our portfolio of non-marketable equity securities. If equity market conditions do not improve, as companies within our portfolio attempt to raise additional funds, the funds may not be available to them, or they may receive lower valuations, with more onerous investment terms than in previous financings, and the investments will likely become impaired. However, we are not able to determine at the present time which specific investments are likely to be impaired in the future, or the extent or timing of individual impairments. We recorded write-downs related to these non-marketable equity investments of $26,000 and $0.1 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended January 30, 2011 for our proportionate share in the net losses of the investee companies. Similarly, we recorded write-downs related to these non marketable equity investments of $0.1 million and $0.3 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended January 31, 2010 for our proportionate share in the net losses of the investee companies.
