NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. Interim Financial Statements
Basis of Presentation. The Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures as of June 30, 2012 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, are unaudited, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The December 31, 2011, 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 (“U.S.”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In our opinion, these financial statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for the fair statement of the results for the interim periods. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements included in our Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2011, filed on Form 10-K with the SEC on February 23, 2012. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Unless the context otherwise requires, all references to “Amkor,” “we,” “us,” “our” or the “company” are to Amkor Technology, Inc. and our subsidiaries.
Use of Estimates. The Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP, using management’s best estimates and judgments where appropriate. These estimates and judgments affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. The estimates and judgments will also affect the reported amounts for certain revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates and judgments.
2. New Accounting Standards
Recently Adopted Standards
In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820). This ASU updates certain requirements for measuring fair value and disclosure regarding fair value measurement. This ASU is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2011. Our adoption of ASU 2011-04 on January 1, 2012, impacted our financial statement disclosure (Note 15).
In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-05, Presentation of Comprehensive Income (Topic 220). This ASU eliminates the option to report other comprehensive income and its components in the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity and 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 or in two separate but consecutive statements. This ASU is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2011. Full retrospective application is required. Our adoption of ASU 2011-05 on January 1, 2012, impacted our financial statement presentation and disclosure (Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income and Note 6).

The intrinsic value of options exercised for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, was less than $0.1 million and $0.1 million, respectively. The intrinsic value of options exercised for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, was less than $0.1 million and $0.4 million, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, cash received for stock option exercises was $0.2 million and $0.9 million, respectively. The related cash receipts are included in financing activities in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Total unrecognized compensation expense from stock options, including a forfeiture estimate, was approximately $0.9 million as of June 30, 2012, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.5 years beginning July 1, 2012. To the extent the actual forfeiture rate is different than what we have anticipated, share-based compensation related to these awards will be different from our expectations.

| | $ | 7.27 |
|
The fair value of shares vested during the six months ended June 30, 2012 was $1.3 million.
Unrecognized compensation cost, including a forfeiture estimate, was $2.7 million as of June 30, 2012, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 2.2 years beginning July 1, 2012. To the extent that the actual forfeiture rate is different than what we have anticipated, the share-based compensation expense related to these awards will be different from our expectations.
4. Income Taxes
Our income tax benefit of $0.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012, primarily reflects $0.1 million of expense related to income taxes at certain of our foreign operations, $0.9 million of foreign withholding taxes and $1.2 million of deferred taxes on undistributed earnings from our investment in J-Devices Corporation ("J-Devices") offset by a net $2.7 million reduction in unrecognized tax benefits. Our income tax expense reflects income taxed in foreign jurisdictions where we benefit from tax holidays. At June 30, 2012, we had U.S. net operating loss carryforwards totaling $367.6 million, which expire at various times through 2031. Additionally, at June 30, 2012, we had $83.9 million of non-U.S. net operating loss carryforwards, substantially all of which will expire at various times through 2022.
We maintain a valuation allowance on all of our U.S. net deferred tax assets, including our net operating loss carryforwards. We also have valuation allowances on deferred tax assets in certain foreign jurisdictions. Such valuation allowances are released as the related tax benefits are realized on our tax returns or when sufficient net positive evidence exists to conclude it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will be realized.
Our gross unrecognized tax benefits decreased from $7.9 million at December 31, 2011 to $4.8 million as of June 30, 2012, primarily because of a $4.0 million reduction as a result of a favorable ruling request related to revenue attribution and a $0.3 million settlement of a contested prior year deduction in a foreign jurisdiction, which were partially offset by $1.2 million of net additions related to the deductibility of certain expenses. Substantially all of the remaining balance of our unrecognized tax benefits at June 30, 2012, would also reduce our effective tax rate, if recognized. Our unrecognized tax benefits are subject to change as examinations of tax years are completed. Tax return examinations involve uncertainties, and there can be no assurances that the outcome of examinations will be favorable.

5. Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net income attributable to Amkor common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. The weighted average number of common shares outstanding includes restricted shares held by retirement eligible recipients and is reduced for treasury stock. Unvested share-based compensation awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents are considered participating securities and are included in the computation of EPS pursuant to the two-class method. We grant restricted shares which entitle recipients to voting and nonforfeitable dividend rights from the date of grant. As a result, we have applied the two-class method to determine EPS.
Diluted EPS is computed on the basis of the weighted average number of shares of common stock plus the effect of dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. Dilutive potential common shares include outstanding stock options, unvested restricted shares and convertible debt. The following table summarizes the computation of basic and diluted EPS:

J-Devices Corporation
During 2009, Amkor and Toshiba Corporation (“Toshiba”) invested in Nakaya Microdevices Corporation (“NMD”) and formed a joint venture to provide semiconductor packaging and test services in Japan. As a result of the transaction, NMD is now owned 60% by the former shareholders of NMD, 30% by Amkor and 10% by Toshiba and has changed its name to J-Devices. J-Devices is a variable interest entity, but as we are not the primary beneficiary, the investment is accounted for under the equity method as an unconsolidated affiliate.
Our investment includes our 30% equity interest and options to acquire additional equity interests. The options, exercisable at our discretion, permit us to increase our percentage ownership of J-Devices on the anniversary date up to 60% in 2012, 66% in 2014 and 80% in 2015. In 2014 and beyond, Toshiba has the option, at its discretion, to sell shares it owns to us if we have exercised any of our options. After we own 80% or more shares, the former shareholders of NMD have a put option which allows them to sell their shares to us. The exercise price for all options is payable in cash and is to be determined using a formula based primarily upon the financial position of J-Devices at the time of exercise.
Under the equity method of accounting, we recognize our 30% proportionate share of J-Devices' net income or loss, which is after J-Devices' income taxes in Japan, during each accounting period as a change in our investment in unconsolidated affiliate. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, our equity in earnings in J-Devices, net of J-Devices' income taxes in Japan, was $0.9 million and $2.9 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, our equity in earnings in J-Devices, net of J-Devices' income taxes in Japan, was $2.1 million and $3.6 million, respectively.
In addition, we record equity method adjustments as a change in our investment in unconsolidated affiliate. These adjustments include the amortization of a basis difference as our carrying value exceeded our equity in the net assets of J-Devices at the date of investment as well as other adjustments required by the equity method.
In conjunction with entering into the joint venture, one of our existing subsidiaries in Japan purchased packaging and test equipment from Toshiba and leased the equipment to J-Devices under an agreement which is accounted for as a direct financing lease. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, we recognized interest income of $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, we recognized interest income of $0.2 million and $0.4 million, respectively. Our lease receivable, net was $12.9 million and $20.2 million as of June 30, 2012, and December 31, 2011, respectively, and was recorded as a component of other accounts receivable.

(1) | In June 2012, Amkor Technology, Inc. ("ATI") amended and restated the $100.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility to increase the facility amount to $150.0 million and extend its term by two years to June 2017. The facility has a letter of credit sub-limit of $25.0 million. As amended, interest is charged under the facility at a floating rate based on the base rate in effect from time to time plus the applicable margins which range from 0.25% to 1.00% for base rate revolving loans, or LIBOR plus 1.5% to 2.25% for LIBOR revolving loans. In connection with amending and extending the facility, ATI capitalized $0.8 million of deferred debt issuance costs for the six months ended June 30, 2012. |
| |
(2) | In June 2012, Amkor Technology Korea, Inc., a Korean subsidiary (“ATK”) entered into a $41.0 million revolving credit facility with a Korean Bank with a term of 12 months. The loan bears interest at the foreign currency funding-linked base rate plus 2.33% (4.80% as of June 30, 2012). Principal is payable upon maturity and interest is paid monthly. The loan is collateralized with certain land, buildings and equipment at our ATK facilities. In July 2012, |

the outstanding balance was repaid in full.
| |
(3) | In March 2012, ATK repaid the remaining outstanding balance due May 2013 by entering into a $100.0 million term loan with the same Korean bank, which is due upon maturity in March 2015. The term loan bears interest at a foreign currency funding-linked base rate plus 2.30% (5.27% as of June 30, 2012) to be paid monthly. The term loan is collateralized by substantially all the land, factories and equipment located at our ATK facilities. |
| |
(4) | In June 2012, ATK entered into a $150.0 million, five-year secured term loan with a Korean bank which is collateralized by substantially all the land, factories and equipment located at our ATK facilities. Interest is paid quarterly, $50.0 million at LIBOR plus 3.90% (4.36% as of June 30, 2012) ("Tranche A") and $100.0 million at LIBOR plus 3.94% (4.40% as of June 30, 2012) ("Tranche B"). Tranche B is available to be drawn over the next 12 months to fund capital additions. In July 2012, ATK drew $50.0 million from Tranche A and $10.0 million from Tranche B. The proceeds of Tranche A were used to fully repay the term loan due July 2014. The term loan is due in full upon maturity in July 2017. |
| |
(5) | In January 2012, Amkor Technology Taiwan Ltd, a Taiwanese subsidiary, converted the existing NT$1.5 billion term loan from a Taiwanese to a U.S. dollar denominated term loan. The term loan previously bore interest at the 90-day primary commercial paper rate plus 0.835% and now bears interest at the Taipei Foreign Exchange ("TAIFX") six month U.S. dollar rate plus a bank-determined spread (2.59% as of June 30, 2012). All other terms and conditions remain the same. |
The debt of Amkor Technology, Inc. is structurally subordinated in right of payment to all existing and future debt and other liabilities of our subsidiaries. Our collateralized bank debt agreements and the indentures governing our outstanding notes contain a number of affirmative and negative covenants which could restrict our operations. We were in compliance with all of our covenants as of June 30, 2012.

During the six months ended June 30, 2012, we recognized net curtailment and settlement losses of $1.0 million resulting from the remeasurement of our defined benefit plan in Japan due to reductions in workforce (Note 18).
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, we contributed $0.1 million and $0.2 million to the pension plans, respectively. We expect to contribute approximately $3.2 million to the pension plans during the remainder of 2012. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, we contributed $0.1 million and $0.2 million to the pension plans, respectively.
Korean Severance Plan
Our Korean subsidiary participates in an accrued severance plan that covers employees with at least one year of service. To the extent eligible employees are terminated, our Korean subsidiary would be required to make lump-sum severance payments on behalf of these eligible employees based on their length of service, seniority and rate of pay at the time of termination. Accrued severance benefits are estimated assuming all eligible employees were to terminate their employment at the balance sheet date. Our contributions to the National Pension Plan of the Republic of Korea are deducted from accrued severance benefit liabilities.
The provision recorded for severance benefits for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, was $7.2 million and $7.8 million, respectively. The provision recorded for severance benefits for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, was $7.6 million and $13.5 million, respectively. The balance of our Korean severance obligation consists of the following:

14. Treasury Stock
Stock Repurchase Program
Our Board of Directors previously authorized the repurchase of up to $300.0 million of our common stock, $150.0 million in August 2011 and $150.0 million in February 2012, exclusive of any fees, commissions or other expenses. The purchase of stock under the program may be made in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions. The timing, manner, price and amount of any repurchases will be determined by us at our discretion and will depend upon a variety of factors including economic and market conditions, the cash needs and investment opportunities for the business, price, applicable legal requirements and other factors. Our stock repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time.
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, we purchased 7.1 million and 8.1 million shares of common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $33.2 million and $37.7 million respectively, net of $0.1 million and $0.2 million of commissions, respectively, for an average price of $4.66 and $4.65, respectively. Since inception of the program, we have purchased a total of 36.7 million shares at an aggregate purchase price of $166.6 million, net of $0.7 million of commissions. At June 30, 2012, approximately $133.4 million was available to repurchase common stock pursuant to the stock repurchase program. At June 30, 2012, $3.3 million of the $37.7 million amount repurchased remained unpaid and is recorded in accrued expenses.

15. Fair Value Measurements
The accounting framework for determining fair value includes a hierarchy for ranking the quality and reliability of the information used to measure fair value, which enables the reader of the financial statements to assess the inputs used to develop those measurements. The fair value hierarchy consists of three tiers as follows: Level 1, defined as quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; Level 2, defined as inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data.
Our assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a recurring basis include cash equivalent money market funds and restricted cash money market funds. Cash equivalent money market funds and restricted cash money market funds are invested in U.S. money market funds and various U.S. and foreign bank operating and time deposit accounts, which are due on demand or carry a maturity date of less than three months when purchased. No restrictions have been imposed on us regarding withdrawal of balances with respect to our cash equivalents as a result of liquidity or other credit market issues affecting the money market funds we invest in or the counterparty financial institutions holding our deposits. Money market funds are valued using quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets. We also measure certain assets and liabilities, including property, plant and equipment, intangible assets and an equity investment, at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, such measurements included the consideration of third party valuation reports based on a combination of market and cost approach valuation techniques. The valuation reports contained various inputs including semiconductor industry data, dealer listings, replacement costs, price lists, cost indices and general information regarding the assets being evaluated. Nonrecurring fair value measurements related to property, plant and equipment impairments reflect the fair value of the assets at the dates the impairments were taken during the period. Our fair value measurements consist of the following:
|
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| For the Three Months Ended June 30, 2012 | | For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2012 | | June 30, 2012 | | For the Three Months Ended June 30, 2011 | | For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2011 | | December 31, 2011 |

|
The estimated fair value of the debt is based primarily on quoted market prices reported on the balance sheet date for our senior and senior subordinated notes. The estimated fair value for the debt of our subsidiaries is based on market based assumptions including current borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements adjusted for duration, optionality and risk profile.
16. Commitments and Contingencies
We have a letter of credit sub-facility of $25.0 million under our $150.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility that matures in June 2017. As of June 30, 2012, we had $0.3 million of standby letters of credit outstanding and had an additional $24.7 million available for letters of credit. Such standby letters of credit are used in the ordinary course of our business and are collateralized by our cash balances.
We generally warrant that our services will be performed in a professional and workmanlike manner and in compliance with our customers' specifications. We accrue costs for known warranty issues. Historically, our warranty costs have been immaterial.
Legal Proceedings
We are involved in claims and legal proceedings and may become involved in other legal matters arising in the ordinary course of our business. We evaluate these claims and legal matters on a case-by-case basis to make a determination as to the impact, if any, on our business, liquidity, results of operations, financial condition or cash flows. Except as indicated below, we currently believe that the ultimate outcome of these claims and proceedings, individually and in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse impact to us. Our evaluation of the potential impact of these claims and legal proceedings on our business, liquidity, results of operations, financial condition or cash flows could change in the future. Attorney fees related to legal matters are expensed as incurred.
In accordance with the accounting guidance for loss contingencies, including pending claims, legal proceedings and other legal matters, we accrue for a loss contingency when we conclude that the likelihood of a loss is probable and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. When the reasonable estimate of the loss is within a range of amounts, and no amount in the range constitutes a better estimate than any other amount, we accrue for the amount at the low end of the range. We adjust our accruals from time to time as we receive additional information, but the loss we incur may be significantly greater than or less than the amount we have accrued. We disclose loss contingencies if there is at least a reasonable possibility that a loss has been incurred.
Arbitration Proceedings with Tessera, Inc.
On March 2, 2006, Tessera, Inc. (“Tessera”) filed a request for arbitration with the International Court of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce (the “ICC”), captioned Tessera, Inc. v. Amkor Technology, Inc. (the "First Tessera Arbitration"). The subject matter of the arbitration was a license agreement (“License Agreement”) entered into between Tessera and our predecessor in 1996. In its rulings in 2008 and 2009, the arbitration panel in the First Tessera Arbitration
AMKOR TECHNOLOGY, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
(Unaudited)
found that most of the packages accused by Tessera were not subject to the patent royalty provisions of the License Agreement, awarded Tessera $60.6 million as damages for some infringing packages for the period March 2, 2002, through December 1, 2008, and denied Tessera's request to terminate the License Agreement. The final award, plus interest and the royalties through December 2008 amounting to $64.7 million, was expensed in 2008 and paid when due in February 2009.
Following Tessera's favorable decision in the U.S International Trade Commission (the “ITC”) in May 2009 against some of our customers, Tessera began making repeated statements to customers and others claiming that we were in breach of the royalty provisions of the License Agreement. We informed Tessera that we believed we were in full compliance with the License Agreement and of our intent to continue making the royalty payments when due in accordance with the terms of the License Agreement.
On August 7, 2009, we filed a request for arbitration in the ICC against Tessera, captioned Amkor Technology, Inc. v. Tessera, Inc. (the “Second Tessera Arbitration”). We instituted the action in order to obtain declaratory relief confirming that we were a licensee in good standing under our 1996 License Agreement with Tessera and that the License Agreement remained in effect.
On November 2, 2009, Tessera filed an answer to our request for arbitration and counterclaims in the ICC. In the answer and counterclaims, Tessera denied Amkor's claims, alleged breach of contract, sought termination of the License Agreement and asserted that Amkor owed Tessera additional royalties under the License Agreement, including royalties for use of thirteen U.S. and six foreign patents that Tessera did not assert in the First Tessera Arbitration. Tessera later dropped its claims on five of those patents. On February 17, 2011, Tessera sent Amkor a notice of termination of the License Agreement.
In May 2011, Tessera filed a new request for arbitration against Amkor with the ICC captioned Tessera, Inc. v. Amkor Technology, Inc. (the "Third Tessera Arbitration") seeking undisclosed damages and a declaration that the License Agreement had been terminated.
In July 2011, the panel issued its decision in the first phase of the Second Tessera Arbitration. The panel found that we did not owe any of the approximately $18 million of additional royalties claimed by Tessera for packages assembled by us for customers who had been involved in proceedings with Tessera before the ITC. Our request for a declaration confirming that we were in compliance with the License Agreement and that our royalty calculations from the First Tessera Arbitration were correct was denied. The panel found that we had materially breached the License Agreement by not paying the full amount of royalties due and by failing to satisfy the audit provisions of the License Agreement. The final amount of royalties and interest owed relating to the first phase of the Second Tessera Arbitration was approximately $0.5 million, which has been fully paid.
On July 5, 2012, the panel issued an interim order in the second phase of the Second Tessera Arbitration finding that royalties are due to Tessera on three of the ten asserted U.S. patents remaining at issue but not on the other seven, royalties are due on four foreign patents related to U.S. patents that the panel found to be royalty bearing in the First Tessera Arbitration and that the License Agreement was terminated by Tessera as of February 17, 2011. We do not believe the termination of the license agreement will interfere in any significant way with our ability to use our technology, conduct our business or service our customers.
The panel reserved for later decision the issues of the amount of royalties and pre-judgment interest due, the allocation of costs and the question of whether Tessera intends to pursue its allegations regarding other patents which have not yet been addressed by the panel. On July 19, 2012, Tessera informed the panel that it intends to proceed on its claims related to three additional U.S. patents. The panel has not yet set forth the procedure and briefing schedule for these matters.
We recorded a charge for the three months ended June 30, 2012, of $34.0 million, based on our current estimates of the damages and interest due to date in respect of the Second Tessera Arbitration. In July 2012, Tessera publicly announced its intention to seek an amount in excess of $125 million in the arbitration. We believe that $34.0 million of damages and interest is a reasonable estimate of the low end of the possible range of loss up to the amount claimed by Tessera. Because we believe that no amount in the range constitutes a better estimate than any other amount, we have recorded the $34.0 million estimate. Of our total accrual, $30.0 million was recorded as cost of goods sold and $4.0 million was recorded as

interest expense. The ultimate amount of damages and interest is subject to determination by the panel based on a number of complex factors, including the panel's determination of which package families the patents apply to, whether those packages meet criteria previously laid out by the panel, overlaps among the packages, the final date through which royalties are applicable and other factors. The final award could be more than the amount currently accrued, and we expect to record our estimate of interest accruing with the passage of time and may record additional charges as information develops or upon the issuance of the final award.
On July 6, 2012, Tessera filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware. The complaint seeks injunctive relief and damages with respect to Amkor's alleged infringement of one of the U.S. patents that the panel found to be royalty bearing in the Second Tessera Arbitration. We strongly dispute Tessera's claims and intend to vigorously defend against them. However, the outcome of this matter is uncertain, and an adverse decision could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
Amkor Technology, Inc. v. Carsem (M) Sdn Bhd, Carsem Semiconductor Sdn Bhd, and Carsem Inc.
On November 17, 2003, we filed a complaint against Carsem (M) Sdn Bhd, Carsem Semiconductor Sdn Bhd, and Carsem Inc. (collectively “Carsem”) with the ITC in Washington, D.C., alleging infringement of our United States Patent Nos. 6,433,277; 6,455,356 and 6,630,728 (collectively the “Amkor Patents”) and seeking, under Section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930, an exclusion order barring the importation by Carsem of infringing products. We allege that by making, using, selling, offering for sale or importing into the U.S. the Carsem Dual and Quad Flat No-Lead Packages, Carsem has infringed on one or more of our MicroLeadFrame packaging technology claims in the Amkor Patents.
On November 18, 2003, we also filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California, alleging infringement of the Amkor Patents and seeking an injunction enjoining Carsem from further infringing the Amkor Patents, compensatory damages and treble damages due to willful infringement plus interest, costs and attorney's fees. This District Court action has been stayed pending resolution of the ITC case.
The ITC Administrative Law Judge (“ALJ”) conducted an evidentiary hearing during July and August of 2004 in Washington D.C. and, on November 18, 2004, issued an Initial Determination that Carsem infringed some of our patent claims relating to our MicroLeadFrame package technology, that some of our 21 asserted patent claims are valid, that we have a domestic industry in our patents and that all of our asserted patent claims are enforceable. However, the ALJ did not find a statutory violation of Section 337 of the Tariff Act.
We filed a petition in November 2004 to have the ALJ's ruling reviewed by the full ITC. On March 31, 2005, the ITC ordered a new claims construction related to various disputed claim terms and remanded the case to the ALJ for further proceedings. On November 9, 2005, the ALJ issued an Initial Determination on remand finding that Carsem infringed some of our patent claims and that Carsem had violated Section 337 of the Tariff Act.
On remand, the ITC had also authorized the ALJ to reopen the record on certain discovery issues related to a subpoena of documents from a third party. An order by the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia enforcing the subpoena became final on January 9, 2009, and the third party produced documents pursuant to the subpoena.
On July 1, 2009, the ITC remanded the investigation for a second time to the ALJ to reopen the record to admit into evidence documents and related discovery obtained from the enforcement of the above-referenced third-party subpoena.
Following a two-day hearing, on October 30, 2009, the ALJ issued an Initial Determination reaffirming his prior ruling that the Carsem Dual and Quad Flat No-Lead Packages infringe some of Amkor's patent claims relating to MicroLeadFrame package technology, that all of Amkor's asserted patent claims are valid and that Carsem violated Section 337 of the Tariff Act.
On December 16, 2009, the ITC ordered a review of the ALJ's Initial Determination. On February 18, 2010, the Commission reversed a finding by the ALJ on the issue of whether a certain invention constitutes prior art to Amkor's asserted patents. The ITC remanded the investigation to the ALJ to make further findings in light of the ITC's ruling. On March 22, 2010,
AMKOR TECHNOLOGY, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
(Unaudited)
the ALJ issued a Supplemental Initial Determination. Although the ALJ's ruling did not disturb the prior finding that Carsem Dual and Quad Flat No-Lead Packages infringe some of Amkor's patent claims relating to MicroLeadFrame technology, the ALJ found that some of Amkor's patent claims are invalid and, as a result, the ALJ did not find a statutory violation of the Tariff Act. On July 20, 2010, the ITC issued a Notice of Commission Final Determination, in which the ITC determined that there is no violation of Section 337 of the Tariff Act and terminated the investigation. We have appealed the ITC's ruling to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, and oral arguments were heard in November 2011.
17. Business Segments
We have two reportable segments, packaging and test. Packaging and test are integral steps in the process of manufacturing semiconductor devices, and our customers may engage with us for both packaging and test services, or for packaging or test services individually.
The accounting policies for segment reporting are the same as those for our Consolidated Financial Statements as a whole. We evaluate our operating segments based on gross profit and gross property, plant and equipment. We do not specifically identify and allocate total assets by operating segment. Summarized financial information concerning reportable segments is shown in the following table. The “other” column includes corporate adjustments, gross property, plant and equipment of our corporate and sales offices and capital additions that do not directly support manufacturing operations, such as research and development and infrastructure projects.

Reduction in Force
During the six months ended June 30, 2012, we reduced our workforce by approximately 120 employees at our manufacturing operations in Japan. We recorded $7.2 million in charges for one-time termination benefits including $1.0 million in net curtailment and settlement charges, of which $5.5 million, $1.6 million and $0.1 million were charged to cost of sales; selling, general and administrative expenses and research and development expenses, respectively. All amounts accrued at June 30, 2012, are classified in current liabilities.
Singapore Manufacturing Operations
In June 2009, we communicated to our employees the decision to wind-down and exit our manufacturing operations in Singapore. We completed our exit as of December 31, 2010. This wind-down affected approximately 600 employees and enabled us to improve our cost structure by consolidating factories. The majority of the machinery and equipment was relocated to and utilized in other factories. In June 2011, we sold the facility in Singapore for $13.3 million in cash, net of goods and services tax, and recorded a gain of less than $0.1 million, with no net tax effect.

Overview
Amkor is one of the world's leading providers of outsourced semiconductor packaging and test services. Packaging and test are integral steps in the process of manufacturing semiconductor devices. The semiconductor manufacturing process begins with the fabrication of tiny transistor elements into complex patterns of electronic circuitry on silicon wafers, thereby creating large numbers of individual semiconductor devices or integrated circuits on each wafer (generally referred to as “chips” or “die”). Each device on the wafer is tested, and the wafer is cut into pieces called chips. The chips are attached through wirebonding to a substrate or leadframe, or to a substrate in the case of flip chip interconnect, and then encased in a protective material to create a package. For a wafer-level package, the electrical interconnections are created directly on the surface of the wafer without a substrate or leadframe. The packages are then tested using sophisticated equipment to ensure that each packaged chip meets its design and performance specifications.
Our packages are designed based on application and chip specific requirements including the type of interconnect technology employed, size, thickness and electrical, mechanical and thermal performance. We are able to provide turnkey packaging and test services including semiconductor wafer bump, wafer probe, wafer backgrind, package design, packaging, test and drop shipment services.
Our customers include, among others: Altera Corporation; Analog Devices, Inc.; Broadcom Corporation; Infineon Technologies AG; International Business Machines Corporation; LSI Corporation; Qualcomm Incorporated; ST Microelectronics N.V.; Texas Instruments Incorporated and Toshiba Corporation. The outsourced semiconductor packaging and test market is very competitive. We also compete with the internal semiconductor packaging and test capabilities of many of our customers.
Our net sales decreased $1.1 million or 0.2% to $686.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012, from $687.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011. The decrease was driven by a decline of $1.7 million or 0.3% in packaging net sales as a result of weakness in the consumer, networking and auto and industrial end markets, partially offset by strength in the communications end market. The decrease in packaging net sales was partially offset by a $0.7 million or 0.9% increase in our test net sales. The increase in test net sales was the result of strength in the communications end market.
Gross margin for the three months ended June 30, 2012, decreased to 13.0% from 18.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2011. Our cost of sales for the three months ended June 30, 2012, included an estimated $30.0 million loss contingency accrual resulting from an interim order issued by the arbitration panel relating to our license agreement with Tessera, Inc. ("Tessera"). The $30.0 million royalty charge for Tessera reduced our gross margin by 4.4%. The decrease in gross margin was also due to increased depreciation expense as a result of our continued investment in property, plant and equipment as well as additional manufacturing overhead expenses. These costs were partially offset by favorable foreign currency exchange rate movements.
Our capital additions totaled $273.4 million or 20.4% of net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2012, compared to $202.0 million or 14.9% of net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2011. During the six months ended June 30, 2012, 44.2% of our capital additions were made in packaging, 30.8% in test and 25.0% for research and development and infrastructure projects.
For the six months ended June 30, 2012, we experienced negative free cash flow of $90.2 million, primarily due to our capital purchases to support anticipated customer demand for packaging and test services related to smartphones and tablets. We define free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities less purchases of property, plant and equipment. Free cash flow is not defined by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”), and a reconciliation of free cash flow to net cash provided by operating activities is set forth under the caption “Cash Flows” below.
We believe our financial position and liquidity are sufficient to fund our operating activities for at least the next twelve months. At June 30, 2012, our cash and cash equivalents totaled approximately $351.2 million, and we have an aggregate of $8.8 million of debt due through the end of 2012. In June 2012, we amended and restated the $100.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility to increase the facility amount to $150.0 million and extend its term by two years to June 2017.
Our Board of Directors previously authorized the repurchase of up to $300.0 million of our common stock, $150.0 million in August 2011 and $150.0 million in February 2012, exclusive of any fees, commissions or other expenses. During the three months ended June 30, 2012, we repurchased 7.1 million shares for $33.3 million under this program. Our stock repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time.

Net Sales. Net sales in the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, decreased compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, as a result of lower net sales of our packaging services. The decrease in packaging net sales was driven by weakness in the consumer, networking and auto and industrial end markets. These decreases were partially offset by strength in the communications end market. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, the overall decline in net sales was also partially offset by an increase in test net sales due to the strength in the communications end market.
Packaging Net Sales. Packaging net sales in the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, decreased compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2011. The decrease was primarily driven by weakness in sales of our ball grid array and leadframe packaging services supporting gaming, networking, home electronics and auto and industrial applications. This decrease was partially offset by increased sales of our chip scale packaging services for wireless communications products, such as smartphones and tablets.
Packaging unit volume decreased 0.1 billion units to 2.1 billion units during the three months ended June 30, 2012, compared to 2.2 billion units during the three months ended June 30, 2011, primarily due to a decrease in unit demand for our leadframe and wirebond chip scale packaging services partially offset by increased demand for flip chip chip scale packaging services. Packaging unit volume decreased 0.3 billion units to 4.0 billion units during the six months ended June 30, 2012, compared to 4.3 billion units during the six months ended June 30, 2011, primarily due to a decrease in unit demand for our leadframe and wirebond chip scale packaging services partially offset by increased demand for flip chip chip scale packaging services.
Test Net Sales. Test net sales in the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, increased compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2011. The increase was primarily attributable to higher test services for wireless communications products, such as smartphones and tablets.

Our cost of sales consists principally of materials, labor, depreciation and manufacturing overhead. Since a substantial portion of the costs at our factories is fixed, relatively modest increases or decreases in capacity utilization rates can have a significant effect on our gross margin.
Material costs as a percentage of net sales increased to 43.2% and 44.0% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, from 42.8% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011. The increase as a percentage of sales and in absolute dollars was primarily due to a shift to a mix of packaging services with a higher material content as a percentage of net sales and the increased cost of gold used in many of our wirebond packages.
Labor costs as a percentage of net sales decreased to 14.4% and 14.2% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, from 14.9% and 14.5% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011. Labor costs as a percentage of sales, and in absolute dollars, decreased primarily due to favorable foreign currency exchange rate movements as substantially all of our manufacturing operations' workforce is paid in local currencies. In addition, we saw labor cost savings for the six months ended June 30, 2012, which were partially offset by a $5.5 million charge for the restructuring activities at our manufacturing operations in Japan.
Other manufacturing costs as a percentage of net sales increased to 29.4% and 27.3% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, from 23.4% and 23.7% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011. The increase in other manufacturing costs as a percentage of sales, and in absolute dollars, was primarily attributable to the estimated $30.0 million loss contingency accrual resulting from an interim order issued by the arbitration panel relating to our license agreement with Tessera. Other manufacturing costs also increased as a result of increased depreciation expense due to our continued investments in property, plant and equipment as well as additional manufacturing overhead expenses.

Gross profit and gross margin for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, decreased compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2011. The decline in gross profit and gross margin was primarily due to the estimated $30.0 million loss contingency accrual resulting from an interim order issued by the arbitration panel relating to our license agreement with Tessera. The $30.0 million royalty charge for Tessera reduced our gross margin by 4.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2012. The decline in gross profit and gross margin was also driven by increased depreciation expense as a result of our continued investment in property, plant and equipment as well as additional manufacturing overhead expenses. For the six months ended June 30, 2012, our gross margin was also negatively impacted by restructuring activities at our manufacturing operations in Japan. These reductions in gross profit and gross margin were partially offset by favorable foreign currency exchange rate movements and labor cost savings from our previous restructuring activities.
