TERADYNE, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

A. The Company

Teradyne, Inc. is a leading global supplier of automatic test equipment.

Teradyne’s automatic test equipment products and services include:

 

   

semiconductor test (“Semiconductor Test”) systems and

 

   

military/aerospace test (“Mil/Aero”) instrumentation and systems, circuit-board test and inspection (“Commercial Board Test”) systems, automotive diagnostic and test (“Diagnostic Solutions”) systems and hard disk drive test (“HDD”) systems, collectively these products represent “Systems Test Group”.

Statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q which are not historical facts, so called “forward looking statements,” are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Investors are cautioned that all forward looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, including those detailed in Teradyne’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). See also “Item 2: Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Certain Factors That May Affect Future Results” and Teradyne’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.

B. Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated interim financial statements include the accounts of Teradyne and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. These interim financial statements are unaudited and reflect all normal recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for the fair presentation of such interim financial statements. Certain prior years’ amounts were reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. The December 31, 2008 condensed consolidated balance sheet data were derived from audited financial statements, but do not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles.

The accompanying financial information should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in Teradyne’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on March 2, 2009 for the year ended December 31, 2008.

Preparation of Financial Statements

The preparation of consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements. Actual results may differ significantly from these estimates.

C. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued FSP No. FAS 132(R)-1, “Employers’ Disclosures about Postretirement Benefit Plan Assets,” (FSP FAS 132(R)-1), which amends SFAS No. 132 (revised 2003), “Employers’ Disclosures about Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits.” This guidance is intended to ensure that an employer meets the objectives of the disclosures about plan assets in an employer’s defined benefit pension or other postretirement plan to provide users of financial statements with an understanding of the following: how investment allocation decisions are made; the major categories of plan assets; the inputs and valuation techniques used to measure the fair value of plan assets; the effect of fair value

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

 

measurements using significant unobservable inputs on changes in plan assets; and significant concentrations of risk within plan assets. FSP FAS 132(R)-1 becomes effective for Teradyne on December 31, 2009. As FSP FAS 132(R)-1 only requires enhanced disclosures, Teradyne has determined that the adoption of FSP FAS 132(R)-1 will not have an impact on its financial position or results of operations.

In April 2009, the FASB issued three FASB Staff Positions (“FSPs”) in order to provide additional application guidance and enhance disclosures regarding fair value measurements and impairments of securities. These FSPs shall be effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted for periods ended after March 15, 2009.

FSP FAS 157-4, “Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly” (“FSP FAS 157-4”). FSP FAS 157-4 relates to determining fair values when there is no active market or where the price inputs being used represent distressed sales. It reaffirms the need to use judgment to ascertain if a formerly active market has become inactive and in determining fair values when markets have become inactive. Teradyne is currently evaluating this new FSP but does not believe that it will have a significant impact on its financial position or results of operations.

FSP FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2 “Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments.” This FSP is intended to bring consistency to the timing of impairment recognition, and provide improved disclosures about the credit and noncredit components of impaired debt securities that are not expected to be sold. The measure of impairment in comprehensive income remains fair value. The FSP also requires increased and more timely disclosures regarding expected cash flows, credit losses, and an aging of securities with unrealized losses. Teradyne is currently evaluating this new FSP but does not believe that it will have a significant impact on its financial position or results of operations.

FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1, “Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments.” This FSP relates to fair value disclosures for financial instruments that are not currently reflected on the balance sheet at fair value. Prior to issuing this FSP, fair values for these assets and liabilities were only disclosed once a year. The FSP now requires these disclosures on a quarterly basis, providing qualitative and quantitative information about fair value estimates for all those financial instruments not measured on the balance sheet at fair value. Teradyne is currently evaluating the disclosure requirements.

D. Financial Instruments and Derivatives

Financial Instruments

Teradyne uses the market and income approaches to value its financial instruments and there were no changes in valuation techniques during the quarter ended April 5, 2009. SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” requires that assets and liabilities carried at fair value be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets as of the reporting date.

Level 2: Pricing inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date. For example, a common approach for valuing fixed income securities is the use of matrix pricing. Matrix pricing is a mathematical technique used to value securities by relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted prices, and therefore is considered a Level 2 input.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

 

Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data. Unobservable inputs are developed based on the best information available, which might include Teradyne’s own data.

Teradyne has elected fair value treatment for the right (“UBS Put”) to sell its auction rate securities back to UBS, under SFAS No. 159 “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities.”

The following table sets forth by fair value hierarchy Teradyne’s financial assets and liabilities that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of April 5, 2009 and December 31, 2008. The UBS Put is included in other assets.

On a quarterly basis Teradyne reviews its investments to identify and evaluate those that have an indication of a potential other-than-temporary impairment. Factors considered in determining whether a loss is other-than-temporary include:

 

   

The length of time and the extent to which the market value has been less than cost;

 

   

The financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer; and

 

   

The intent and ability to retain the investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in market value.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

 

Teradyne has determined that it does not intend to hold certain marketable securities for a period of time sufficient to allow for recovery in market value and recognized an other-than-temporary impairment loss in the amount of $0.2 million, in the quarter ended April 5, 2009, primarily related to mortgage and asset backed debt securities. During the quarter ended April 5, 2009, Teradyne also recorded a loss of $0.5 million for the decrease in the auction rate securities fair value and $1.9 million of realized losses from sales of marketable securities. Other-than-temporary impairment losses, decreases in auction rate securities fair value and realized losses from sale of marketable securities are included in interest expense and other, net.

Derivatives

In March of 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133” (SFAS 161). SFAS 161 requires entities to provide enhanced disclosure about how and why the entity uses derivative instruments, how the instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under SFAS No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities,” (SFAS 133) and how the instruments and related hedged items affect the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows of the entity. Teradyne adopted SFAS 161 during the quarter ended April 5, 2009.

Teradyne conducts business in a number of foreign countries, with certain transactions denominated in local currencies. The purpose of Teradyne’s foreign currency management is to minimize the effect of exchange rate fluctuations on certain foreign denominated net monetary assets and anticipated cash flows. The terms of currency instruments used for hedging purposes are consistent with the timing of the transactions being hedged. Teradyne does not use derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

To minimize the effect of exchange rate fluctuations associated with the remeasurement of net monetary assets denominated in foreign currencies, Teradyne enters into foreign currency forward contracts. The change in fair value of these derivatives is recorded directly in earnings, and is used to offset the change in fair value of the net monetary assets denominated in foreign currencies.

The notional amount of foreign exchange contracts hedging foreign currency transactions was $61.5 million and $100.0 million at April 5, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively.

E. Debt

Revolving Credit Facility

On April 5, 2009 and December 31, 2008, Teradyne had $122.5 million outstanding under its revolving credit facility. Of the outstanding balance, $100 million would have been due on May 14, 2009 and $22.5 million would have been due on June 23, 2009. The weighted average interest rate on the outstanding amount was 5.4% at April 5, 2009 and December 31, 2008. As of April 5, 2009, Teradyne was in compliance with all financial covenants set forth in the revolving credit facility agreement. See Subsequent Events footnote O regarding the termination of the revolving credit facility.

Loan Agreement

On March 31, 2009, Teradyne K. K., Teradyne’s wholly-owned subsidiary in Japan, entered into a loan agreement with a local bank in Japan to borrow approximately $10 million. The loan has a term of 5 years and a fixed interest rate of 1.4%. Approximately $6 million of the loan is collateralized by a real estate mortgage on Teradyne K.K.’s building and land in Kumamoto, Japan and approximately $4 million is unsecured. Teradyne, Inc. has guaranteed payment of the loan obligation. The loan is amortized over the term of the loan with semiannual principal payments of approximately $1 million payable on September 30 and March 30 each year. At April 5, 2009, approximately $2 million of the outstanding loan principal is included in current debt and approximately $8 million is classified as long–term debt.

Convertible Senior Notes

On March 31, 2009, Teradyne entered into an underwriting agreement regarding a public offering of $175 million aggregate principal amount of 4.50% convertible senior notes due March 15, 2014 (the “Notes”). On April 1, 2009, the underwriters exercised their option to purchase an additional $15 million aggregate principal amount of the Notes for a total aggregate principal amount of $190 million. The Notes bear interest at a rate of 4.50% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year, beginning on September 15, 2009. The Notes will mature on March 15, 2014, unless earlier repurchased by Teradyne or converted. The Notes will be convertible, under certain circumstances and during certain periods, at an initial conversion rate of approximately 182.65 shares of Teradyne’s common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Notes, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $5.48, a 25% conversion

premium based on the last reported sale price of $4.38 per share of Teradyne’s common stock on March 31, 2009. The conversion rate is subject to adjustment in certain circumstances. Upon conversion, holders will receive, at Teradyne’s option, shares of Teradyne common stock, cash or a combination of cash and shares of Teradyne common stock, subject to Teradyne’s option to irrevocably elect to settle all future conversions in cash up to the principal amount of the Notes and shares of common stock for any excess.

Teradyne may not redeem the Notes prior to their maturity. Holders of the Notes may require Teradyne to purchase all or a portion of their Notes at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be purchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, in cash, upon the occurrence of certain fundamental changes involving Teradyne.

Concurrently with the offering of the Notes, Teradyne entered into a convertible note hedge transaction with a strike price equal to the initial conversion price of the Notes, or approximately $5.48. The convertible note hedge allows Teradyne to receive shares of its common stock and/or cash related to the excess conversion value that it would pay to the holders of the Notes upon conversion. The convertible note hedges will cover, subject to customary antidilution adjustments, approximately 34,703,196 shares of Teradyne’s common stock. Teradyne will pay approximately $64.6 million for the convertible note hedges and has recorded this amount as a convertible note hedge payable and a decrease to additional paid-in capital on the April 5, 2009 balance sheet.

Separately, Teradyne entered into a warrant transaction with a strike price of approximately $7.67 per share, which is 75% higher than the closing price of Teradyne’s common stock on March 31, 2009. The warrants will be net share settled and will cover, subject to customary antidilution adjustments, approximately 34,703,196 shares of Teradyne’s common stock. Teradyne will receive approximately $43.0 million for the warrant and has recorded this amount as a warrant receivable and an increase to additional paid-in capital on the April 5, 2009 balance sheet.

See Subsequent Events footnote O regarding the closing of the Notes offering and related convertible note hedge and warrant transactions.

G. Stock-Based Compensation

During the three months ended April 5, 2009, Teradyne granted service based restricted stock units to employees and service based restricted stock units and stock options to executives. The total number of restricted stock units granted was 3.9 million at the weighted average grant date fair value of $4.81. The total number of stock options granted was 1.0 million at the weighted average grant date fair value of $1.91. Restricted stock units awards and stock options vest in equal installments over four years. Stock options have a term of seven years from the date of grant.

The fair value of stock options was estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions:

The total number of shares granted was 2.9 million at the weighted average grant date fair value of $10.51. Service based awards granted to employees and executives vest in equal installments over four years. Awards granted to non-employee directors vest on the first anniversary of the grant date. A significant number of awards granted to executive officers were performance-based restricted stock units; however, the performance criteria were not met and the performance-based restricted stock units were forfeited.

J. Net (Loss) Income per Common Share

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net (loss) income per common share:

Net (loss) income per common share—diluted

   $ (0.53 )   $ 0.01
              

The computation of diluted net loss per common share for the three months ended April 5, 2009 excludes all outstanding stock options, restricted stock units and warrants because Teradyne had a net loss.

The computation of diluted net income per common share for the three months ended March 30, 2008 excludes the effect of the potential exercise of options to purchase approximately 16.9 million shares and restricted stock units of 1.8 million shares because the effect would have been anti-dilutive.

K. Restructuring and Other, Net

The tables below represent activity related to restructuring and other, net, in the three months ended April 5, 2009. The accrual for severance and benefits is reflected in accrued employees’ compensation and withholdings. All remaining severance and benefits will be paid by the end of the fourth quarter of 2009. The accrual for lease payments on vacated facilities is reflected in other accrued liabilities and other long-term accrued liabilities and is expected to be paid out over the lease terms, the latest of which expires in 2012. Teradyne expects to pay out approximately $2.4 million against the lease accruals over the next twelve months. Teradyne’s future lease commitments are net of expected sublease income of $6.8 million as of April 5, 2009.

L. Retirement Plans

Defined Benefit Pension Plans

Teradyne has defined benefit pension plans covering a portion of domestic employees and employees of certain non-U.S. subsidiaries. Benefits under these plans are based on employees’ years of service and compensation. Teradyne’s funding policy is to make contributions to the plans in accordance with local laws and to the extent that such contributions are tax deductible. The assets of the plans consist primarily of equity and fixed income securities. In addition, Teradyne has an unfunded supplemental executive defined benefit plan in the United States to provide retirement benefits in excess of levels allowed by the Employment Retirement Income Security Act and the Internal Revenue Code, as well as unfunded foreign plans.

M. Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Claims

On July 11, 2008, Xyratex Technology, Ltd (“Xyratex”) filed a complaint against Teradyne in the United States District Court in Los Angeles, California alleging that certain of Teradyne disk drive test products infringe one of Xyratex’s patents. The complaint was served on Teradyne on October 29, 2008. The suit seeks temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive relief as well as unspecified monetary damages, including treble damages, for patent infringement. On December 17, 2008, Teradyne filed an answer and counterclaims, denying that Teradyne’s disk drive test products infringe the asserted Xyratex patent and asking the court to declare such patent invalid. The case is currently in the discovery phase and trial is scheduled to begin in November 2009. On April 14, 2009, Teradyne filed a separate complaint in the United States District Court in Los Angeles alleging that Xyratex’s disk drive test products infringe two of Teradyne’s patents. Teradyne intends to vigorously defend against the Xyratex claim and to vigorously pursue its claims against Xyratex.

On September 5, 2001, after Teradyne’s August 2000 acquisition of Herco Technology Corp. and Perception Laminates, Inc., the former owners of those companies filed a complaint against Teradyne and two of Teradyne’s then executive officers in the United States District Court in San Diego, California, asserting securities fraud and breach of contract related to the acquisition. The District Court dismissed certain of the plaintiffs’ claims, granted partial summary judgment against them with respect to their breach of contract claim and denied their motion for reconsideration. In July 2007, after an appeal by the plaintiffs, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit affirmed in part and reversed in part the District Court rulings. Teradyne petitioned the Ninth Circuit for rehearing, which was denied, and the case was remanded back to the District Court. On August 29, 2008, the District Court granted Teradyne’s motion for judgment on the pleadings. On September 11, 2008, the plaintiffs filed their notice of appeal. No hearing date has been scheduled for the appeal.

In 2001, Teradyne was designated as a Potentially Responsible Party (“PRP”) at a clean-up site in Los Angeles, California. This claim arose out of Teradyne’s acquisition of Perception Laminates in August 2000. Prior to that date, Perception Laminates had itself acquired certain assets of Alco Industries Inc. under an asset purchase agreement in 1992. Neither Teradyne nor Perception Laminates have ever conducted any operations at the Los Angeles site. Teradyne has asked the State of California to drop the PRP designation, but California has not yet agreed to do so.

In November 2008, Teradyne received a general notice letter from the California Department of Toxic Substances Control (“DTSC”) that informed it of potential liability with respect to contamination at the BKK Corporation Landfill Facility Site in West Covina, California. Similar to the PRP claim discussed above, this claim arose out of Teradyne’s acquisition of Perception Laminates in August 2000. Neither Teradyne nor Perception Laminates have ever conducted any operations at the West Covina site. Teradyne has asked the DTSC and the group of settling defendants to remove it as a PRP for this site.

Teradyne believes that it has meritorious defenses against the above unsettled claims and intends to vigorously contest them. While it is not possible to predict or determine the outcomes of the unsettled claims or to provide possible ranges of losses that may arise, Teradyne believes the potential losses associated with all of these actions are unlikely to have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial position, but could possibly be material to its consolidated results of operations and of cash flows of any one period.

N. Segment Information

Teradyne’s two reportable segments are Semiconductor Test and Systems Test Group. The Semiconductor Test segment includes operations related to the design, manufacturing and marketing of semiconductor test

products and services. The Systems Test Group segment includes operations related to the design, manufacturing and marketing of products and services for: military/aerospace instrumentation test, circuit-board test and inspection, hard disk drive test and automotive diagnostic and test.

Teradyne evaluates performance based on several factors, of which the primary financial measure is business segment income before income taxes. The accounting policies of the business segments are the same as those described in Note B: “Accounting Policies” in Teradyne’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008.

O. Subsequent Events

On April 6, 2009, Teradyne completed its registered underwritten public offering of $190 million aggregate principal amount of its 4.50% convertible senior notes due 2014 pursuant to an underwriting agreement, dated March 31, 2009, and settled the related convertible bond hedge and warrant transactions. On April 6, 2009, Teradyne received net proceeds of approximately $163 million as a result of these financing transactions.

On April 7, 2009, Teradyne terminated its revolving credit facility agreement. Teradyne used approximately $123.3 million of the net proceeds of the financing transactions to repay $122.5 million of principal and $0.8 million of accrued interest outstanding under the revolving credit facility agreement. Teradyne has also written off the remaining revolving credit facility debt issue costs of approximately $2.5 million.

On April 15, 2009, as part of its ongoing efforts to lower expenses and cost structure in light of the industry wide continued decline in orders for semiconductor production equipment Teradyne implemented a worldwide reduction in workforce of approximately 350 employees. The terminations are expected to be completed in the second quarter of 2009, and to result in an estimated total severance cash charge of approximately $12 million that will be expensed in the second quarter of 2009.

(1) Bookings for the three months ended March 30, 2008 include Nextest Systems Corporation (“Nextest”) bookings from January 24, 2008 through March 30, 2008.

Semiconductor Test orders decreased 75% or $198.3 million from the first quarter of 2008 to 2009, primarily due to a decrease in Subcon and IDM orders across all products. The majority of the decrease was across South Asia, Taiwan and Korea, driven primarily by lower demand from our outsource, assembly and test (“OSAT”) customers.

Systems Test Group’s increase in orders of $23.2 million or 49% was primarily due to bookings related to Hard Disk Drive systems, partially offset by a decrease in Mil/Aero service orders.

Cancellations for our two principal reportable segments were as follows:

Customers may delay delivery of products or cancel orders suddenly and without significant notice, subject to possible cancellation penalties. In the first quarter of 2009 there were no significant cancellation penalties received. Due to possible changes in delivery schedules and cancellations of orders, our backlog at any particular date is not necessarily indicative of the actual sales for any succeeding period. Delays in delivery schedules and/or cancellations of backlog during any particular period could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Semiconductor Test revenue decreased $169.2 million or 68% from the first quarter of 2008 to 2009, primarily due to lower sales across all products primarily in South Asia, Taiwan and Singapore. The decease was due to excess test capacity at our customers as a result of the global economic downturn.

The decrease in Systems Test Group revenue of $7.5 million or 15% from the first quarter of 2008 to 2009 resulted from a decrease in our Diagnostic Solutions and Commercial Board Test business units. The decline was driven primarily by product related revenue while service revenue remained flat.

   $ 33.4     $ 138.5     $ (105.1 )

Percent of Total Revenue

     27.7 %     46.6 %     (18.9 )

Gross margins as a percentage of revenue decreased from 2008 to 2009 by 18.9 percentage points. This decrease in gross margin is the result of a decrease of 18.0 points from lower sales volume and a decrease of 6.2 points related to inventory provision charges across both segments. These decreases were partially offset by an increase of 5.3 points primarily from lower warranty and freight costs and lower acquired inventory fair value step-up charges.

We assess the carrying value of our inventory on a quarterly basis by estimating future demand and comparing that demand against on-hand and on-order inventory. Forecasted revenue information is obtained from the sales and marketing groups and incorporates factors such as backlog and future revenue demand. This quarterly process identifies obsolete and excess inventory. Obsolete inventory, which represents items for which there is no demand, is fully reserved. Excess inventory, which represents inventory items that are not expected to be consumed during the next four quarters, is written-down to estimated net realizable value.

The provisions for excess and obsolete inventory were $8.6 million and $1.3 million for the three months ended April 5, 2009 and March 30, 2008, respectively. During the three months ended April 5, 2009 and March 30, 2008, we scrapped $1.1 million and $7.8 million of inventory, respectively. As of April 5, 2009, we have inventory related reserves for amounts which had been written-down or written-off totaling $136.3 million. We have no pre-determined timeline to scrap the remaining inventory.

Table of Contents

The decrease of $7.9 million in engineering and development expenses is due primarily to an $11.8 million decrease in spending due to workforce reductions, lower project spending and lower variable compensation. This decrease was partially offset by additional costs of $3.9 million related to the acquisition of Eagle Test Systems, Inc. (“Eagle Test”) and Nextest.

The decrease of $9.8 million from the first quarter of 2008 to 2009 is due primarily to a $13.1 million decrease from workforce reductions and on-going cost reduction initiatives, $3.3 million related to a decrease in variable compensation, partially offset by an increase of $6.6 million in higher selling and administrative expenses resulting from the acquisition of Eagle Test and Nextest.

Restructuring and Other, Net

The tables below represent activity related to restructuring and other, net, in the three months ended April 5, 2009. The accrual for severance and benefits is reflected in accrued employees’ compensation and withholdings. All remaining severance and benefits will be paid by the end of the year 2009. The accrual for lease payments on vacated facilities is reflected in other accrued liabilities and other long-term accrued liabilities and is expected to be paid out over the lease terms, the latest of which expires in 2012. We expect to pay out approximately $2.4 million against the lease accruals over the next twelve months. Our future lease commitments are net of expected sublease income of $6.8 million as of April 5, 2009.

The restructuring actions taken during the three months ended April 5, 2009 are expected to generate quarterly cost savings of approximately $10.9 million across all segments.

Interest and Other, net

In the three months ended April 5, 2009, interest income decreased by $3.8 million due primarily to lower cash balances as a result of our acquisitions of Nextest and Eagle Test. Interest expense and other increased by $6.3 million due primarily to the following, which occurred in the three months ended April 5, 2009: $2.6 million of realized and other than temporary impairment losses on our marketable securities, $1.7 million of interest expense related to the revolving credit facility and $1.1 million of foreign exchange losses.

Income Taxes

For the three months ended April 5, 2009, we recorded a tax benefit of $7.8 million primarily due to benefiting operating losses in foreign jurisdictions. For the three months ended March 30, 2008, we recorded the tax expense of $4.1 million, which consisted primarily of foreign taxes. Due to the continued uncertainty of realization, we have maintained our valuation allowance at April 5, 2009 for deferred tax assets in the U.S. and Singapore. We do not expect to significantly reduce our valuation allowance until sufficient positive evidence exists, including sustained profitability, that realization is more likely than not.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities balance decreased $53.6 million in the first three months of 2009, to $320.7 million. Cash activity for the first three months of 2009 and 2008 was as follows:

Decrease in cash and cash equivalents

   $ (43.6 )   $ (239.3 )
                

Changes in operating assets and liabilities, net of businesses acquired, used cash of $15.3 million in the first three months of 2009. This was due primarily to a decrease in accounts payable, deferred revenue and accrued expenses of $44.3 million due to on-going cost reduction initiatives, an increase in other current assets of $7.6 million, an increase in inventories of $4.1 million, and retirement plan contributions of $1.6 million, partially offset by a decrease in accounts receivable of $42.4 million due to lower sales volume.

Investing activities provided cash of $4.0 million in the three months ended April 5, 2009, due to sales of marketable securities that provided cash of $9.0 million, proceeds from life insurance policies that provided cash of $1.1 million, partially offset by investments in property, plant and equipment of $6.1 million.

During the three months ended April 5, 2009, financing activities provided cash of $17.5 million due to $10 million of long-term debt proceeds from a loan in Japan and $7.5 million from the issuance of common stock under stock option and stock purchase plans.

We believe our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities balance of $320.7 million will be sufficient to meet working capital and expenditure needs for at least the next twelve months. Inflation has not had a significant long-term impact on earnings.

Subsequent Events

On April 6, 2009, we completed our registered underwritten public offering of $190 million aggregate principal amount of our 4.50% convertible senior notes due 2014 pursuant to an underwriting agreement, dated March 31, 2009, and settled the related convertible bond hedge and warrant transactions. On April 6, 2009, we received net proceeds of approximately $163 million as a result of these financing transactions.

On April 7, 2009, we terminated our revolving credit facility agreement. We used approximately $123.3 million of the net proceeds of the financing transactions to repay $122.5 million of principal and $0.8 million of accrued interest outstanding under the revolving credit facility agreement. We have also written off the remaining revolving credit facility debt issue costs of approximately $2.5 million.

On April 15, 2009, as part of our ongoing efforts to lower expenses and cost structure in light of the industry wide continued decline in orders for semiconductor production equipment we implemented a worldwide reduction in workforce of approximately 350 employees. The terminations are expected to be completed in the second quarter of 2009, and to result in an estimated total severance cash charge of approximately $12 million that will be expensed in the second quarter of 2009.

Equity Compensation Plans

Discussed in “Note O: Stock Based Compensation” in our 2008 Form 10-K, we have a 1996 Employee Stock Purchase Plan and a 2006 Equity and Cash Compensation Incentive Plan (the “2006 Equity Plan”), a cash and equity compensation incentive plan.

The purpose of the 1996 Employee Stock Purchase Plan is to encourage stock ownership by all eligible employees of Teradyne. The purpose of the 2006 Equity Plan is to provide equity ownership and compensation opportunities in Teradyne to our employees, officers, directors, consultants and/or advisors. Both plans were approved by our shareholders.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued FSP No. FAS 132(R)-1, “Employers’ Disclosures about Postretirement Benefit Plan Assets,” (FSP FAS 132(R)-1), which amends SFAS No. 132 (revised 2003), “Employers’ Disclosures about Pensions and Other Postretirement Benefits.” This guidance is intended to ensure that an employer meets the objectives of the disclosures about plan assets in an employer’s defined benefit pension or other postretirement plan to provide users of financial statements with an understanding of the following: how investment allocation decisions are made; the major categories of plan assets; the inputs and valuation techniques used to measure the fair value of plan assets; the effect of fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs on changes in plan assets; and significant concentrations of risk within plan assets. FSP FAS 132(R)-1 becomes effective for us on December 31, 2009. As FSP FAS 132(R)-1 only requires enhanced disclosures, we have determined that the adoption of FSP FAS 132(R)-1 will not have an impact on our financial position or results of operations.

In April 2009, the FASB issued three FASB Staff Positions (“FSPs”) in order to provide additional application guidance and enhance disclosures regarding fair value measurements and impairments of securities. These FSPs shall be effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted for periods ended after March 15, 2009.

FSP FAS 157-4, “Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly” (“FSP FAS 157-4”). FSP FAS 157-4 relates to determining fair values when there is no active market or where the price inputs being used represent distressed sales. It reaffirms the need to use judgment to ascertain if a formerly active market has become inactive and in determining fair values when markets have become inactive. We are currently evaluating this new FSP but do not believe that it will have a significant impact on its financial position or results of operations.

FSP FAS 115-2 and FAS 124-2 “Recognition and Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments.” This FSP is intended to bring consistency to the timing of impairment recognition, and provide improved disclosures about the credit and noncredit components of impaired debt securities that are not expected to be sold. The measure of impairment in comprehensive income remains fair value. The FSP also requires increased and more timely disclosures regarding expected cash flows, credit losses, and an aging of securities with unrealized losses. We are currently evaluating this new FSP but do not believe that it will have a significant impact on the determination or reporting of its financial result

FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1, “Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments.” This FSP relates to fair value disclosures for financial instruments that are not currently reflected on the balance sheet at fair value. Prior to issuing this FSP, fair values for these assets and liabilities were only disclosed once a year. The FSP now requires these disclosures on a quarterly basis, providing qualitative and quantitative information about fair value estimates for all those financial instruments not measured on the balance sheet at fair value. We are currently evaluating the disclosure requirements.

Item 3: Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

For “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” affecting Teradyne, see Item 7a. “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risks,” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 2, 2009. There were no material changes in our exposure to market risk from those set forth in our Annual Report for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008.

 

Item 4: Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this report, our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) promulgated under the Exchange Act. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that material information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, including ensuring that such material information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

During the period covered by this report, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1: Legal Proceedings

On July 11, 2008, Xyratex Technology, Ltd (“Xyratex”) filed a complaint against us in the United States District Court in Los Angeles, California alleging that certain of our disk drive test products infringe one of Xyratex’s patents. The complaint was served on Teradyne on October 29, 2008. The suit seeks temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive relief as well as unspecified monetary damages, including treble damages, for patent infringement. On December 17, 2008, we filed an answer and counterclaims, denying that our disk drive test products infringe the asserted Xyratex patent and asking the court to declare such patent invalid. The case is currently in the discovery phase and trial is scheduled to begin in November 2009. On April 14, 2009, we filed a separate complaint in the United States District Court in Los Angeles alleging that Xyratex’s disk drive test products infringe two of our patents. We intend to vigorously defend against the Xyratex claim and to vigorously pursue our claims against Xyratex.

On September 5, 2001, after our August 2000 acquisition of Herco Technology Corp. and Perception Laminates, Inc., the former owners of those companies filed a complaint against us and two of our then executive officers in the United States District Court in San Diego, California, asserting securities fraud and breach of contract related to the acquisition. The District Court dismissed certain of the plaintiffs’ claims, granted partial summary judgment against them with respect to their breach of contract claim and denied their motion for reconsideration. In July 2007, after an appeal by the plaintiffs, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit affirmed in part and reversed in part the District Court rulings. We petitioned the Ninth Circuit for rehearing, which was denied, and the case was remanded back to the District Court. On August 29, 2008, the District Court granted Teradyne’s motion for judgment on the pleadings. On September 11, 2008, the plaintiffs filed their notice of appeal. No hearing date has been scheduled for the appeal.

In 2001, we were designated as a Potentially Responsible Party (“PRP”) at a clean-up site in Los Angeles, California. This claim arose out of our acquisition of Perception Laminates in August 2000. Prior to that date, Perception Laminates had itself acquired certain assets of Alco Industries Inc. under an asset purchase agreement in 1992. Neither we nor Perception Laminates have ever conducted any operations at the Los Angeles site. We have asked the State of California to drop the PRP designation, but California has not yet agreed to do so.

In November 2008, we received a general notice letter from the California Department of Toxic Substances Control (“DTSC”) that informed us of potential liability with respect to contamination at the BKK Corporation Landfill Facility Site in West Covina, California. Similar to the PRP claim discussed above, this claim arose out of our acquisition of Perception Laminates in August 2000. Neither we nor Perception Laminates have ever conducted any operations at the West Covina site. We have asked the DTSC and the group of settling defendants to remove us as a PRP for this site.

We believe that we have meritorious defenses against the above unsettled claims and intend to vigorously contest them. While it is not possible to predict or determine the outcomes of the unsettled claims or to provide possible ranges of losses that may arise, we believe the potential losses associated with all of these actions are unlikely to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, but could possibly be material to our consolidated results of operations and of cash flows of any one period.

 

Item 1A: Risk Factors

In addition to the other information set forth in this Form 10-Q, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, “Item 1A: Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. The risk factors described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K remain applicable to our business, subject to the changes and the addition of the new risk factors set forth below. The risks described below and in our Annual Report on

Form 10-K are not the only risks that we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.

We Have Increased Our Indebtedness.

On April 6, 2009, we completed a registered underwritten offering of $190 million aggregate principal amount of 4.50% Convertible Senior Notes (the “Notes”) due March 15, 2014 and received net proceeds of approximately $163 million. We used approximately $123.3 million of the net proceeds of this offering to repay all amounts outstanding under our revolving credit facility. Although we are no longer subject to the restrictive covenants under the revolving credit facility, we have incurred approximately $190 million principal amount of new indebtedness that the holders of the Notes may require us to repurchase upon the occurrence of certain fundamental changes involving us. In addition, on March 31, 2009, our wholly-owned subsidiary in Japan, Teradyne K.K., incurred approximately US$10.0 million in indebtedness that we guaranteed. The level of our indebtedness, among other things, could:

 

   

make it difficult to make payments on our other obligations;

 

   

make it difficult to obtain any necessary future financing for working capital, capital expenditures, debt service requirements or other purposes;

 

   

require the dedication of a substantial portion of any cash flow from operations to service for indebtedness, thereby reducing the amount of cash flow available for other purposes, including capital expenditures; and

 

   

limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and the industries in which we compete.

Our Convertible Note Hedge and Warrant Transactions Could Impact the Value of Our Stock

Concurrent with the offering of the Notes, we entered into a convertible note hedge transaction with Goldman, Sachs & Co. (the “hedge counterparty”) with a strike price equal to the initial conversion price of the Notes. The convertible note hedges cover, subject to customary antidilution adjustments, approximately 34,703,196 shares of our common stock.

Separately and concurrent with the pricing of the Notes, we entered into a warrant transaction with the hedge counterparty with a strike price of $7.6650 per share, which is 75% higher than the closing price of our common stock on March 31, 2009. The warrants will be net share settled and cover, subject to customary antidilution adjustments, approximately 31,963,470 shares of our common stock. On April 1, 2009, the hedge counterparty exercised its option to purchase warrants covering, subject to customary antidilution adjustments, an additional 2,739,726 shares of our common stock. However, we will not be obligated to deliver to the hedge counterparty more than 34,526,500 shares of common stock upon exercise of the warrants (which amount represents less than 19.99% of our outstanding shares of common stock as March 31, 2009, without giving effect to any shares of common stock issuable pursuant to the warrant transaction), subject to customary antidilution adjustments.

The convertible note hedges are expected to reduce the potential dilution to our common stock upon any conversion of the Notes. However, the warrant transaction could separately have a dilutive effect to the extent that the market value per share of our common stock exceeds the applicable strike price of the warrant. The net cost of the convertible note hedge transaction to us, after being partially offset by the proceeds from the sale of the warrants, was approximately $21.7 million.

In connection with establishing its initial hedge of these convertible note hedge and warrant transactions, the hedge counterparty has entered into various derivative transactions with respect to our common stock and/or purchase shares of our common stock or other securities, including the Notes, concurrent with, or shortly after,

the pricing of the Notes. In addition, the hedge counterparty may modify its hedge positions by entering into or unwinding various derivative transactions with respect to our common stock or by selling our common stock or other securities, including the Notes, in secondary market transactions (and may do so during any observation period related to the conversion of the Notes). These activities could adversely impact the value of our common stock and the Notes.

We May Not Be Able to Pay Our Debt and Other Obligations.

If our cash flow is inadequate to meet our obligations, we could face substantial liquidity problems. If we are unable to generate sufficient cash flow or otherwise obtain funds necessary to make required payments on the Notes or certain of our other obligations, we would be in default under the terms thereof, which would permit the holders of those obligations to accelerate their maturity and also could cause defaults under future indebtedness we may incur. Any such default could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial position and operating results. In addition, we cannot be certain that we would be able to repay amounts due in respect of the Notes if those obligations were to be accelerated following the occurrence of any other event of default as defined in the instruments creating those obligations, or if the holders of the Notes require us to repurchase the Notes upon the occurrence of a fundamental change involving us. Moreover, we cannot be certain that we will have sufficient funds or will be able to arrange for financing to pay the principal amount due on the Notes at maturity.

 

Item 2: Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

In November 2007, Teradyne’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) authorized a $400 million stock repurchase program. During the three months ended April 5, 2009, Teradyne did not repurchase any shares of common stock. The cumulative repurchases as of April 5, 2009 total 8.5 million shares of common stock for $102.6 million at an average price of $12.14 per share. As of November 4, 2008, the Board temporarily suspended the implementation of the stock repurchase program.

The following table includes information with respect to repurchases we made of our common stock during the quarter ended April 5, 2009 (in thousands except per share price):
