NOTES TO
CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS –
UNAUDITED
NOTE 1.
OVERVIEW AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Trimble
Navigation Limited (the Company), incorporated in California in 1981, provides
positioning solutions to commercial and government users in a large number of
markets. These markets include surveying, agriculture, construction,
asset management, mapping and mobile resource management.
The
Company has a 52-53 week fiscal year, ending on the Friday nearest to December
31, which for fiscal 2007 was December 28. The first quarter of fiscal 2008 and
fiscal 2007 ended on March 28, 2008 and March 30, 2007,
respectively. Fiscal 2008 is a 53-week year and fiscal 2007 is a
52-week year. Unless otherwise stated, all dates refer to the
Company’s fiscal year and fiscal periods.
The
Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the results of the Company
and its subsidiaries. Inter-company accounts and transactions have
been eliminated. The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet is derived
from the December 28, 2007 audited Consolidated Financial Statements
included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K of Trimble Navigation Limited for
fiscal year 2007. Certain amounts from prior periods have been reclassified to
conform to the current period presentation.
The
accompanying financial data as of March 28, 2008 and for the three months ended
March 28, 2008 and March 30, 2007 has been prepared by the Company, without
audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the U.S. have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and
regulations. The following discussion should be read in conjunction
with the Company’s 2007 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
In the
opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring
adjustments) necessary to present a fair statement of financial position as of
March 28, 2008, results of operations for the three months ended March 28, 2008
and March 30, 2007 and cash flows for the three months ended March 28, 2008 and
March 30, 2007, as applicable, have been made. The results of
operations for the three months ended March 28, 2008 are not necessarily
indicative of the operating results for the full fiscal year or any future
periods. Individual segment revenue may be affected by seasonal
buying patterns.
The
preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the U.S. requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the amounts reported in its Condensed Consolidated
Financial Statements and accompanying notes. Management bases its
estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions believed to be
reasonable. Although these estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of
current events and actions that may impact the company in the future, actual
results may be different from the estimates.
On
January 17, 2007, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a 2-for-1 split of
all outstanding shares of the Company’s Common Stock, payable February 22, 2007
to stockholders of record on February 8, 2007. All shares and per
share information presented have been adjusted to reflect the stock split on a
retroactive basis for all periods presented.
NOTE 2.
UPDATES TO SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
There
have been no changes to the Company’s significant accounting polices during the
three months ended March 28, 2008 from those disclosed in the Company’s 2007
Form 10-K.

September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements,” which
clarifies the definition of fair value, establishes a framework for measuring
fair value within GAAP and expands the disclosures regarding fair value
measurements. In February 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position
No. FAS 157-2 deferring the effective date of SFAS No. 157 to fiscal years
beginning after November 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years
for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities that are recognized or
disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a nonrecurring
basis. SFAS No. 157 became effective for the Company beginning in its
first quarter of fiscal 2008. The adoption of SFAS No. 157 did not
have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of
operations or cash flows.
In
February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for
Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, including an amendment of FASB
Statement No. 115.” SFAS No. 159 allows an entity the irrevocable
option to elect fair value for the initial and subsequent measurement for
certain financial assets and liabilities under an instrument-by-instrument
election. Subsequent measurements for the financial assets and liabilities an
entity elects to fair value will be recognized in earnings. SFAS No.
159 also establishes additional disclosure requirements. SFAS No. 159 became
effective for the Company at the beginning of its first quarter of fiscal
2008. The Company did not elect the fair value option for any of its
financial assets or liabilities. However, the Company may decide to elect
the fair value option on new items in the future. The adoption did
not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of
operations or cash flows.
In March
2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures About Derivative Instruments
and Hedging Activities - An Amendment of FASB Statement No. 133” which requires
enhanced disclosures about (a) how and why an entity uses derivative
instruments, (b) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are
accounted for under SFAS 133 and its related interpretations, and (c) how
derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial
position, financial performance, and cash flows. SFAS No. 161 is effective for
financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after
November 15, 2008, with early application encouraged. The Company
does not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 161 to have a material impact on the
Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
NOTE 3.
BUSINESS COMBINATIONS
@Road,
Inc.
On
December 10, 2006, the Company and @Road, Inc. (@Road) entered into a
definitive merger agreement. The acquisition became effective on
February 16, 2007. @Road is a global provider of solutions designed
to automate the management of mobile resources and to optimize the service
delivery process for customers across a variety of industries. The acquisition
of @Road expands the Company’s investment and reinforces the existing growth
strategy for its Mobile Solutions segment. @Road’s results of
operations since February 17, 2007 have been included in the Company’s Condensed
Consolidated Statements of Income within the Mobile Solutions business
segment.
Purchase
Price
Under the
terms of the agreement, the Company acquired all of the outstanding shares of
@Road common stock for $7.50 per share. The Company elected to issue
$2.50 per share of the consideration in the form of the Company’s common stock
(Common Stock) to be based upon the five-day average closing price of the
Company’s shares six trading days prior to the closing of the transaction and
the remaining $5.00 per share consideration was paid in cash. Further, each
share of Series A-1 and Series A-2 Redeemable Preferred Stock, par value
$0.001 per share, of @Road was converted into the right to receive an amount in
cash equal to $100.00 plus all declared or accumulated but unpaid dividends with
respect to such shares as of immediately prior to the effective time of the
merger and each share of Series B-1 Redeemable Preferred Stock, par value
$0.001 per share, of @Road and each share of Series B-2 Redeemable
Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share, of @Road was converted into the
right to receive an amount in cash equal to $831.39 plus all declared or
accumulated but unpaid dividends with respect to such shares as of immediately
prior to the effective time of the merger. In addition, all @Road vested stock
options were terminated and the holders of each such option were entitled to
receive the excess, if any, of the aggregate consideration over the exercise
price. At the effective time of the merger, all unvested @Road stock options
with an exercise price in excess of $7.50 were terminated and all unvested stock
options that had exercise prices of $7.50 or less were assumed by the
Company.
Concurrent
with the merger, the Company amended its existing $200 million unsecured
revolving credit agreement with a syndicate of 11 banks with The Bank of Nova
Scotia as the administrative agent (the 2007 Credit Facility) and incurred a
five-year term loan under the 2007 Credit Facility. See Note 9 to the
Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional
information.
The
Company paid approximately $327.3 million in cash from debt and existing cash,
and issued approximately 5.9 million shares of the Company’s common stock
based on an exchange ratio of 0.0893 shares of the Company’s common stock
for each outstanding share of @Road common stock as of February 16, 2007. The
common stock issued had a fair value of $161.9 million and was valued using
the average closing price of the Company’s common stock of $27.69 over a range
of two trading days (February 14, 2007 through February 15, 2007) prior to, and
including, the close date (February 16, 2007) of the transaction, which is also
the date that the amount of the Company’s shares to be issued in accordance with
the merger agreement was settled. The total purchase price is estimated as

In
accordance with SFAS 141, "Business Combinations,” the total purchase price was
allocated to @Road net tangible assets, identifiable intangible assets and
in-process research and development based upon their estimated fair values as of
February 16, 2007. The excess purchase price over the net tangible, identifiable
intangible assets and in-process research and development was recorded as
goodwill. The fair values assigned to tangible and identifiable intangible
assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based on estimates and assumptions
provided by management.

The
Company reviewed and adjusted @Road's net tangible assets and liabilities to
fair value, as necessary, as of February 16, 2007, including the following
adjustments:
Fixed
assets – the Company decreased @Road's historical value of fixed assets by
$2.1 million to adjust fixed assets to an amount equivalent to fair
value.
Deferred
revenue and cost of sales – the Company reduced @Road's historical value of
deferred revenue by $39.6 million to adjust deferred revenue to the fair value
of the direct cost associated with servicing the underlying obligation plus a
reasonable margin. @Road’s deferred revenue balance consists of upfront payments
of its hosted product, licensed product, extended warranty and maintenance. The
Company reduced @Road's historical value of deferred product cost by $47.1
million to adjust deferred product cost to the asset's underlying fair value.
The deferred product costs adjustment to fair value related to deferral of cost
of sales of hardware that have shipped, resulting in no fair value relating to
the associated deferred product costs.
Other
receivables and non-current assets – Other receivables and non-current assets
were increased by $15.4 million to adjust for the fair value of future cash
collections from customer contracts assumed for products delivered prior to the
acquisition date. As the
products were delivered prior to the acquisition date, revenue is not
recognizable in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of
Income.
Intangible
Assets
Developed
product technology, which is comprised of products that have reached
technological feasibility, includes products in @Road's current product
offerings. @Road's technology includes hardware, software and services that
serve the mobile resource management market internationally. The Company expects
to amortize the developed and core technology over a weighted average estimated
life of seven years.
Customer
relationships represent the value placed on @Road’s distribution channels and
end users. The Company expects to amortize the fair value of these assets over a
weighted average estimated life of seven years.
Trademarks
and trade names represent the value placed on the @Road brand and recognition in
the mobile resource management market. The Company expects to amortize the fair
value of these assets over a weighted average estimated life of eight
years.
In-process Research and
Development
The
Company recorded an expense of $2.1 million relating to in-process research and
development projects in @Road’s license business. In-process
research and development represents incomplete @Road research and development
projects that had not reached technological feasibility and had no alternative
future use as of the consummation of the merger.
Goodwill
The
excess purchase price over the net tangible, identifiable intangible assets and
in-process research and development was recorded as goodwill. The goodwill was
attributed to the premium paid for the opportunity to expand and better serve
the global mobile resource management market and achieve greater long-term
growth opportunities than either company had operating alone. The Company
believes these opportunities could include accelerating the rate at which
products are brought to market and increasing the diversity and global reach of
those products. In addition, the Company expects that the combined companies may
be able to obtain greater operating leverage by reducing costs in areas of
redundancy. Of the total $264.6 million assigned to goodwill, approximately $4.4
million is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.
Restructuring
Liabilities
related to restructuring @Road's operations that meet the requirements of EITF
95-3, “Recognition of Liabilities in Connection with a Purchase Business
Combination,” have been recorded as adjustments to the purchase price and an
increase in goodwill. Liabilities related to restructuring the Company's
operations have been recorded as expenses in the Company's Condensed
Consolidated Statements of Income in the period that the costs are
incurred.
Deferred Tax
Assets/Liabilities
The
Company recognized $56.9 million in
net deferred tax liabilities for the tax effects of differences between assigned
values in the purchase price and the tax bases of assets acquired and
liabilities assumed.
@Road Stock Options
Assumed
In
accordance with the merger agreement, the Company assumed all @Road unvested
stock options that had exercise prices of $7.50 or less. The Company
issued approximately 795,000 stock options based on an exchange ratio of
0.268 shares of the Company’s common stock for each unvested stock option
with exercise prices of $7.50 or less as of February 16, 2007. The
fair value of these assumed options was determined to be $10.1 million which
will be expensed over the remaining vesting terms of the assumed options which
is approximately three to four years. The assumed options were valued
using the binomial model similar to previously granted Trimble stock options as
discussed in the Company’s fiscal 2007 Form 10-K.
Pro-Forma
Results
The
following table presents pro-forma results of operations of the Company and
@Road, as if the companies had been combined as of December 31, 2005. The
unaudited pro-forma results of operations are not necessarily indicative of
results that would have occurred had the acquisition taken place on
December 31, 2005 or of future results. Included in the
pro-forma results are fair value adjustments based on the fair values of assets
acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date of February 16, 2007
and adjustments for interest expense related to debt and stock options assumed
as part of the merger consideration.
The
Company excluded the effect of non-recurring items as the impact is short-term
in nature. The pro-forma information is as follows:

write-downs and customer contracts where the product was delivered prior
to the acquisition date. Pro-forma net income includes a $0.1 million
increase due to the timing of recognizing revenue write-downs and related

SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY
Stock
Repurchase Activities
In
January 2008, the Company’s Board authorized a stock repurchase program (“2008
Stock Repurchase Program”), authorizing the Company to repurchase up to $250
million of Trimble’s common stock under this program. During the
three months ended March 28, 2008, the Company repurchased approximately 968,000
shares of common stock in open market purchases at an average price of $26.71
per share. The total purchase price of $25.9 million was
reflected as a decrease to common stock based on the average stated value per
share with the remainder to retained earnings. Common stock
repurchases under the program were recorded based upon the settlement date of
the applicable trade for accounting purposes. All common shares
repurchased under this program have been retired. As of March 28, 2008, the 2008
Stock Repurchase Program had remaining authorized funds of $224.1
million. The timing and actual number of future shares repurchased
will depend on a variety of factors including price, regulatory requirements,
capital availability, and other market conditions. The program does
not require the purchase of any minimum number of shares and may be suspended or
discontinued at any time without public notice.
Stock-Based
Compensation
The
Company accounts for its employee stock options and rights to purchase shares
under its stock participation plans at fair value, in accordance with SFAS
123(R), “Share-Based Payment.” SFAS 123(R) requires stock-based compensation to
be estimated using the fair value on the date of grant using an option-pricing
model. The value of the portion of the award that is expected to vest is
recognized as expense over the related employees’ requisite service periods in
the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.
The
following table summarizes stock-based compensation expense, net of tax, related
to employee stock-based compensation included in the Consolidated Condensed
Statements of Income in accordance with SFAS 123(R) for the three months ended
March 28, 2008 and March 30, 2007.

Options
Stock
option expense recognized during the period is based on the value of the portion
of the stock option that is expected to vest during the period. The fair value
of each stock option is estimated on the date of grant using a binomial
valuation model. The Black-Scholes model was used to value those options granted
prior to the fourth quarter of fiscal 2005. Similar to the Black-Scholes model,
the binomial model takes into account variables such as volatility, dividend
yield rate, and risk free interest rate. For options granted for the three
months ended March 28, 2008 and March 30, 2007, the following assumptions were
used:

Expected Dividend Yield – The
dividend yield assumption is based on the Company’s history and expectation of
dividend payouts.
Expected Stock Price
Volatility – The Company’s computation of expected volatility is based on
a combination of implied volatilities from traded options on the Company’s stock
and historical volatility, commensurate with the expected life of the stock
options.
Expected Risk Free Interest
Rate – The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield
curve in effect at the time of grant for the expected life of the stock
options.
Expected Life Of Option – The
Company’s expected life represents the period that the Company’s stock options
are expected to be outstanding and was determined based on historical experience
of similar stock options with consideration to the contractual terms of the
stock options, vesting schedules and expectations of future employee
behavior.
NOTE 5.
JOINT VENTURES
Caterpillar
Trimble Control Technologies Joint Venture
On April
1, 2002, Caterpillar Trimble Control Technologies LLC (CTCT), a joint venture
formed by the Company and Caterpillar began operations. CTCT develops advanced
electronic guidance and control products for earth moving machines in the
construction and mining industries. The joint venture is 50% owned by the
Company and 50% owned by Caterpillar, with equal voting rights. The joint
venture is accounted for under the equity method of accounting. Under the equity
method, the Company’s share of profits and losses are included in Income from
joint ventures in the Non-operating income, net section of the Condensed
Consolidated Statements of Income. During the three months
ended March 28, 2008, the Company recorded $1.8 million as its
proportionate share of CTCT net income. During the comparable period
of 2007 the Company recorded $2.2 million, as its proportionate share of
CTCT net income. During the fiscal quarters ended March 28, 2008 and
March 30, 2007, there were no dividends received from CTCT. The
carrying amount of the investment in CTCT was $11.4 million at March 28, 2008
and $9.6 million at December 28, 2007, and is included in Other non-current
assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The
Company acts as a contract manufacturer for CTCT. Products are
manufactured based on orders received from CTCT and are sold at direct cost plus
a mark-up for the Company’s overhead costs to CTCT. CTCT then resells
products at cost plus a mark-up in consideration for CTCT’s research and
development efforts to both Caterpillar and to the Company for sales through
their respective distribution channels. Generally, the Company sells products
through its after-market dealer channel, and Caterpillar sells products for
factory and dealer installation. CTCT does not have net inventory on
its balance sheet in that the resale of products to Caterpillar and the Company
occur simultaneously when the products are purchased from the
Company. During the three months ended March 28, 2008, the
Company recorded $2.6 million of revenue and $2.3 million of cost of
sales for the manufacturing of products sold by the Company to CTCT and then
sold through the Caterpillar distribution channel. During the
comparable three month period of fiscal 2007, the Company recorded
$2.3 million of revenue and $2.1 million of cost of
sales. In addition, during the three months ended March 28, 2008 and
March 30, 2007, the Company recorded $6.0 million and $6.7 million in net cost
of sales for the manufacturing of products sold by the Company to CTCT and then
repurchased by the Company upon sale through the Company’s distribution
channel.
In
addition, the Company received reimbursement of employee-related costs from CTCT
for company employees dedicated to CTCT or performance of work for CTCT totaling
$4.0 million and $3.2 million for the three months ended March 28, 2008 and
March 30, 2007, respectively. The reimbursements were offset against operating
expenses.
At March
28, 2008 and December 28, 2007, the Company had amounts due to and from
CTCT. Receivables and payables to CTCT are settled individually with
terms comparable to other non-related parties. The amounts due to and
from CTCT are presented on a gross basis in the Condensed Consolidated Balance
Sheets. At March 28, 2008 and December 28, 2007, the receivables from
CTCT were $6.1 million and $5.6 million, respectively, and are
included within Accounts receivable, net, on the Condensed Consolidated Balance
Sheets. As of the same dates, the payables due to CTCT were
$6.6 million and $5.2 million, respectively, and are included within
Accounts payable on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Nikon-Trimble
Joint Venture
On March
28, 2003, Nikon-Trimble Co., Ltd (Nikon-Trimble), a joint venture was formed by
the Company and Nikon Corporation. The joint venture began operations
in July 2003 and is 50% owned by the Company and 50% owned by Nikon, with equal
voting rights. It focuses on the design and manufacture of surveying instruments
including mechanical total stations and related products.
The joint
venture is accounted for under the equity method of accounting. Under
the equity method, the Company’s share of profits and losses are included in
Income from joint ventures in the Non-operating income, net section of the
Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. During the three months
ended March 28, 2008 and March 30, 2007, the Company recorded a profit of
$0.2 million and a profit of $0.3 million, respectively, as its
proportionate share of Nikon-Trimble net income. During the three
months ended March 28, 2008 and March 30, 2007, there were no dividends received
from Nikon-Trimble. The carrying amount of the investment in
Nikon-Trimble was $13.5 million at March 28, 2008 and $13.4 million at December
28, 2007, and is included in Other non-current assets on the Condensed
Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Nikon-Trimble
is the distributor in Japan for Nikon and the Company’s products. The
Company is the exclusive distributor outside of Japan for Nikon branded survey
products. For products sold by the Company to Nikon-Trimble, revenue is
recognized by the Company on a sell-through basis from Nikon-Trimble to the end
customer.
The terms
and conditions of the sales of products from the Company to Nikon-Trimble are
comparable with those of the standard distribution agreements which the Company
maintains with its dealer channel and margins earned are similar to those from
third party dealers. Similarly, the purchases of product by the Company from
Nikon-Trimble are made on terms comparable with the arrangements which Nikon
maintained with its international distribution channel prior to the formation of
the joint venture with the Company. During the three months ended
March 28, 2008, the Company recorded $3.9 million of revenue and $2.4 million of
cost of sales for the manufacturing of products sold by the Company to
Nikon-Trimble. During the three months ended March 30, 2007, the Company

$6.9 million during the three months ended March 28, 2008 and March 30, 2007,
respectively.
At March
28, 2008 and December 28, 2007, the Company had amounts due to and from
Nikon-Trimble. Receivables and payables to Nikon-Trimble are settled
individually with terms comparable to other non-related parties. The

Credit
Facilities
On July
28, 2005, the Company entered into a $200 million unsecured revolving credit
agreement (the 2005 Credit Facility) with a syndicate of 10 banks with The Bank
of Nova Scotia as the administrative agent. The funds available under
the 2005 Credit Facility may be used for our general corporate purposes and up
to $25 million of the 2005 Credit Facility may be used for letters of
credit. The Company incurred a commitment fee when the 2005 Credit
Facility was not used. The commitment fee is not material to the
Company’s results during all periods presented.
On
February 16, 2007, the Company amended its existing $200 million unsecured
revolving credit agreement with a syndicate of 11 banks with The Bank of Nova
Scotia as the administrative agent (the 2007 Credit Facility). Under the 2007
Credit Facility, the Company exercised the option in the existing credit
agreement to increase the availability under the revolving credit line by $100
million, for an aggregate availability of up to $300 million, and extended the
maturity date of the revolving credit line by 18 months, from July 2010 to
February 2012. Up to $25 million of the availability under the revolving
credit line may be used to issue letters of credit, and up to $20 million may be
used for swing line loans. In addition, during the first quarter of
fiscal 2007 the Company incurred a five-year term loan under the 2007 Credit
Facility in an aggregate principal amount of $100 million, which will mature
concurrently with the revolving credit line. The term loan will be repaid
in quarterly installments, with principal being amortized at the following
annual rates: year 1 at 10%, year 2 at 15%, year 3 at 15%, year 4 at 20%, year 5
at 20%, and the last quarterly payment to be made at maturity, together with a
final payment of 20%. The maximum leverage ratio under the 2007
Credit Facility is 3.00:1. The funds available under the new 2007
Credit Facility may be used by the Company for acquisitions, stock repurchases,
and general corporate purposes.
As of
March 28, 2008 and December 28, 2007, the Company did not have an outstanding
balance on the revolving credit line and the term loan balance was $60.0
million. The Company was in compliance with all financial debt
covenants.
The
Company may borrow funds under the 2007 Credit Facility in U.S. Dollars or in
certain other currencies, and borrowings will bear interest, at the Company's
option, at either: (i) a base rate, based on the administrative agent's prime
rate, plus a margin of between 0% and 0.125%, depending on the Company's
leverage ratio as of its most recently ended fiscal quarter, or (ii) a
reserve-adjusted rate based on the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), Euro
Interbank Offered Rate (EURIBOR), Stockholm Interbank Offered Rate (STIBOR), or
other agreed-upon rate, depending on the currency borrowed, plus a margin of
between 0.625% and 1.125%, depending on the Company's leverage ratio as of the
most recently ended fiscal quarter. The Company's obligations under the 2007
Credit Facility are guaranteed by certain of the Company's domestic
subsidiaries.
The 2007
Credit Facility contains customary affirmative, negative and financial covenants
including, among other requirements, negative covenants that restrict the
Company's ability to dispose of assets, create liens, incur indebtedness,
repurchase stock, pay dividends, make acquisitions, make investments, enter into
mergers and consolidations and make capital expenditures, within certain
limitations, and financial covenants that require the maintenance of leverage
and fixed charge coverage ratios. The 2007 Credit Facility contains events of
default that include, among others, non-payment of principal, interest or fees,
breach of covenants, inaccuracy of representations and warranties, cross
defaults to certain other indebtedness, bankruptcy and insolvency events,
material judgments, and events constituting a change of control. Upon the
occurrence and during the continuance of an event of default, interest on the
obligations will accrue at an increased rate and the lenders may accelerate the
Company's obligations under the 2007 Credit Facility, however that acceleration
will be automatic in the case of bankruptcy and insolvency events of
default.
Notes
Payable
As of
March 28, 2008 and December 28, 2007, the Company had notes payable totaling
approximately $578,000 and $690,000, respectively, consisting of government
loans to foreign subsidiaries and loans assumed from acquisitions.

Additionally,

holdbacks of $12.1 million recorded in Other current liabilities and Other
non-current liabilities. The maximum remaining payments, including the $7.7
million and $12.1 million recorded, will not exceed $75.7 million. The remaining
earn-outs and holdbacks are payable through 2010.
At March
28, 2008, the Company had unconditional purchase obligations of approximately
$68.8 million. These unconditional purchase obligations primarily represent open
non-cancelable purchase orders for material purchases with our vendors. Purchase
obligations exclude agreements that are cancelable without penalty. These
unconditional purchase obligations are related primarily to inventory and other
items.
NOTE
10. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
As
discussed in Note 2, SFAS No. 157 became effective for the Company beginning in
its first quarter of fiscal 2008, which requires enhanced disclosures about
assets and liabilities measured at fair value. The Company’s forward foreign
currency exchange contracts and its deferred compensation plan assets and
liabilities are presented at fair value in the Condensed Consolidated
Balance Sheets. Fair value is defined as the price at which an asset could be
exchanged in a current transaction between knowledgeable, willing parties. A
liability’s fair value is defined as the amount that would be paid to transfer
the liability to a new obligor, not the amount that would be paid to settle the
liability with the creditor. Where available, fair value is based on observable
market prices or parameters or derived from such prices or parameters. Where
observable prices or inputs are not available, valuation models are applied.
These valuation techniques involve some level of management estimation and
judgment, the degree of which is dependent on the price transparency for the
instruments or market and the instruments’ complexity.
Assets
and liabilities recorded at fair value on a recurring basis in the Condensed
Consolidated Balance Sheets are categorized based upon the level of judgment
associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value. Hierarchical
levels, defined by SFAS No. 157 and directly related to the amount of
subjectivity associated with the inputs to fair valuation of these assets and
liabilities, are as follows:
Level I –
Observable inputs such as unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for
identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date.
Level II
– Inputs (other than quoted prices included in Level I) are either directly or
indirectly observable for the asset or liability. These include
quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted
prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not
active.
Level III
– Unobservable inputs that reflect management’s best estimate of what market
participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement
date. Consideration is given to the risk inherent in the valuation technique and
the risk inherent in the inputs to the model.
Fair
Value on a Recurring Basis
Assets
and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are categorized in
the tables below based upon the lowest level of significant input to the
valuations.

NOTE 11.
PRODUCT WARRANTIES
The
Company accrues for warranty costs as part of its cost of sales based on
associated material product costs, technical support labor costs, and costs
incurred by third parties performing work on the Company's
behalf. The Company’s expected future costs are primarily estimated
based upon historical trends in the volume of product returns within the
warranty period and the costs to repair or replace the equipment. The products
sold are generally covered by a warranty for periods ranging from 90 days to
three years, and in some instances up to 5.5 years.
While the
Company engages in extensive product quality programs and processes, including
actively monitoring and evaluating the quality of component suppliers, its
warranty obligation is affected by product failure rates, material usage, and
service delivery costs incurred in correcting a product failure. Should actual
product failure rates, material usage, or service delivery costs differ from the
estimates, revisions to the estimated warranty accrual and related costs may be
required.

NOTE 13:
RESTRUCTURING CHARGES:
In
conjunction with the Company’s acquisition of @Road, the Company accrued $3.6
million for severance and benefits. These restructuring costs were recorded in
accordance with EITF 95-3 as part of the purchase price with no impact on the
Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. At the end of fiscal
2007, the Company had a balance of $1.3 million for such accrual. During the
three months ended March 28, 2008, the Company paid $0.2 million against
this restructuring accrual. It decreased by $0.9 million according to the final
@Road purchase price allocation. The remaining restructuring accrual of $0.2
million as of March 28, 2008 is included in Other current liabilities in the
Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet and is expected to be settled by
the first half of fiscal 2008.
The
Company also recorded restructuring costs of $3.0 million during the first
quarter of fiscal 2007 for charges associated with the acceleration of vesting
of employee stock options for certain terminated @Road employees, of which $1.4
million was settled in cash and $1.6 million was recorded as Shareholder’s
Equity. The amount was recorded in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated
Statements of Income for the three months ended March 30, 2007 under
Restructuring charges. There were no restructuring costs recorded in the first
quarter of fiscal 2008.
NOTE 14:
INCOME TAXES
In July
2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in
Income Taxes” (FIN 48). FIN 48 applies to all tax positions related to income
taxes subject to Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) 109,
“Accounting for Income Taxes.” Under FIN 48, a company would recognize the
benefit from a tax position only if it is more-likely-than-not that the position
would be sustained upon audit based solely on the technical merits of the tax
position. FIN 48 clarifies how a company would measure the income tax benefits
from the tax positions that are recognized, provides guidance as to the timing
of the derecognition of previously recognized tax benefits and describes the
methods for classifying and disclosing the liabilities within the financial
statements for any unrecognized tax benefits (UTB). FIN 48 also addresses when a
company should record interest and penalties related to tax positions and how
the interest and penalties may be classified within the income statement and
presented in the balance sheet.
The
Company adopted FIN 48 on December 30, 2006, and the amount of liabilities for
unrecognized tax benefits (net of the federal benefit on state issues) that, if
recognized, would favorably affect the effective income tax rate in any future
period are $29.7 million and $28.4 million at March 28, 2008 and December 28,
2007, respectively. The unrecognized tax benefits are recorded in
Other Non-Current Liabilities and within the deferred tax accounts in the
accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The
Company and its U.S. subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal and state income
tax. The Company has substantially concluded all U.S. federal and
state income tax matters for years through 1992. Non-U.S. income tax
matters have been concluded for years through 2000. The Company does
not anticipate an impact to the unrecognized tax benefits balance with respect
to current tax examinations. Furthermore, although the timing of the
resolution and/or the closure on audits is highly uncertain, the Company does
not believe that the unrecognized tax benefits would materially change in the
next twelve months.
The
Company’s continuing practice is to recognize interest and/or penalties related
to income tax matters in income tax expense. The Company’s liability includes
interest and penalties at March 28, 2008 and December 30, 2007, of $3.4 million
and $3.1 million, respectively, were recorded in Other non-current liabilities
in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The
Company’s effective income tax rate for the three months ended March 28, 2008
was 33.0%, as compared to 32.0% for the three months ended March 30,
2007.

This
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the
meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section
21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which are subject to the
“safe harbor” created by those sections. Actual results could differ materially
from those indicated in the forward-looking statements due to a number of
factors including, but not limited to, the risk factors discussed in “Risk
Factors” below and elsewhere in this report as well as in the Company's Annual
Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year 2007 and other reports and documents that
the Company files from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The Company has
attempted to identify forward-looking statements in this report by placing an
asterisk (*) before paragraphs. Discussions containing such
forward-looking statements may be found in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” below. In some cases,
forward-looking statements can be identified by terminology such as “may,”
”will,” “should,” “could,” “predicts,” “potential,” “continue,” “expects,”
“anticipates,” “future,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “estimates,” and
similar expressions. These forward-looking statements are made as of the date of
this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and the Company disclaims any obligation to
update these statements or to explain the reasons why actual results may
differ.`
ITEM
2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The
discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are
based upon our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been
prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.
S.. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates
and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue
and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an
on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to product
returns, doubtful accounts, inventories, investments, intangible assets, income
taxes, warranty obligations, restructuring costs and contingencies and
litigation. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other
assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the
results of which form the basis for making judgments about the amount and timing
of revenue and expenses and the carrying values of assets and liabilities that
are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from
these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
CRITICAL
ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
There
have been no changes to our significant accounting polices during the three
months ended March 28, 2008 from those disclosed in our 2007 Form
10-K.
Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
In
September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements,” which
clarifies the definition of fair value, establishes a framework for measuring
fair value within GAAP and expands the disclosures regarding fair value
measurements. In February 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. FAS
157-2 deferring the effective date of SFAS No. 157 to fiscal years beginning
after November 15, 2008, and interim periods within those fiscal years for
nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities that are recognized or
disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a nonrecurring basis. We
adopted SFAS 157 in the first quarter of fiscal 2008. The adoption did not have
a material impact on our financial condition, results of operations or cash
flows.
In
February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for
Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, including an amendment of FASB
Statement No. 115.” SFAS No. 159 allows an entity the irrevocable
option to elect fair value for the initial and subsequent measurement for
certain financial assets and liabilities under an instrument-by-instrument
election. Subsequent measurements for the financial assets and liabilities an
entity elects to fair value will be recognized in earnings. SFAS No. 159 also
establishes additional disclosure requirements. SFAS No. 159 became effective
for us at the beginning of its first quarter of fiscal 2008. We did
not elect the fair value option for any of our financial assets or
liabilities. However, we may
decide to elect the fair value option on new items in the future.
The adoption did not have a material impact on our financial position, results
of operations or cash flows.
In March
2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures About Derivative Instruments
and Hedging Activities - An Amendment of FASB Statement No. 133” which requires
enhanced disclosures about (a) how and why an entity uses derivative
instruments, (b) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are
accounted for under SFAS 133 and its related interpretations, and (c) how
derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial
position, financial performance, and cash flows. SFAS No. 161 is effective for
financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after
November 15, 2008, with early application encouraged. We do not
expect the adoption of SFAS No. 161 to have a material impact on our financial
position, results of operations or cash flows.
EXECUTIVE
LEVEL OVERVIEW
Trimble’s
focus is on combining positioning technology with wireless communication and
application capabilities to create system-level solutions that enhance
productivity and accuracy for our customers. The majority of our markets are
end-user markets, including engineering and construction firms, governmental
organizations, public safety workers, farmers and companies who must manage
fleets of mobile workers and assets. In our Advanced Devices segment, we also
provide components to original equipment manufacturers to incorporate into their
products. In the end user markets, we provide a system that includes
a hardware platform that may contain software and customer support. Some
examples of our solutions include products that automate and simplify the
process of surveying land, products that automate the utilization of equipment
such as tractors and bulldozers, products that enable a company to manage its
mobile workforce and assets, and products that allow municipalities to manage
their fixed assets. In addition, we also provide software applications on a
stand-alone basis.
Solutions
targeted at the end-user make up a significant majority of our revenue. To
create compelling products, we must attain an understanding of the end users’
needs and work flow, and how location-based technology can enable that end user
to work faster, more efficiently, and more accurately. We use this knowledge to
create highly innovative products that change the way work is done by the
end-user. With the exception of our Mobile Solutions and Advanced Devices
segments, our products are generally sold through a dealer channel, and it is
crucial that we maintain a proficient global, third-party distribution
channel.
We
continued to execute our strategy with a series of actions that can be
summarized in four categories.
Reinforcing
our position in existing markets
* We
believe that our markets provide us with additional, substantial potential for
substituting our technology for traditional methods. In the first quarter of
2008, we continued to develop new products and to strengthen our distribution
channels in order to expand our market opportunity. A number of new products
such as the AgGPS® EZ-Guide® 250 lightbar guidance system, GPS Pathfinder®
ProXRT receiver, Trimble® MEP layout solution for the mechanical, electrical and
plumbing trades as well as a new wireless data controller for the LM80 Layout
Manager to connect the office and job site, strengthened our competitive
position and created new value for the user.
Extending
our position in existing markets through new product categories
* We are
utilizing the strength of the Trimble brand in our markets to expand our
revenues by bringing new products to existing users. In the first quarter of
2008, we introduced the Agriculture Manager™ asset management system, a new
sensor for the Trimble CCS900 compaction control system that provides real-time
material density information to earthworks operators, and EZ-Office™ software
for agriculture.
Bringing
existing technology to new markets
* We
continue to reinforce our position in existing markets and position ourselves in
newer markets that will serve as important sources of future growth. Our efforts
in Africa, China, Europe, India, Middle-East and Russia, all reflected improving
financial results, with the promise of more in the future.
Entering
new market segments
* In Q1
2008, we acquired Crain Enterprises, of Mound City, Illinois. Crain is a leading
manufacturer of accessories for the geomatics, surveying, mapping, and
construction industries. We also acquired Géo-3D Inc. of Montreal, Canada.
Géo-3D is a leader in roadside infrastructure asset inventory solutions for the
geospatial market.

Revenue
In the
three months ended March 28, 2008, total revenue increased by $69.6 million or
24%, as compared to the same corresponding period in fiscal 2007. The increase
resulted from strong revenue growth across Field Solutions, and Mobile Solutions
segments. Engineering and Construction revenue increased $18.6
million, Field Solutions increased $37.1 million, Mobile Solutions increased
$14.2 million, while Advanced Devices decreased $0.2 million, as compared to the
same corresponding period in fiscal 2007. Revenue growth was driven
by new products, a robust agricultural environment, strong international growth,
and a full quarter of @Road revenue as compared to partial quarter of @Road
revenue in the corresponding period in fiscal 2007. The revenue growth was
partially offset by softness in the U.S. markets in Engineering and
Construction.
Gross
Margin
Gross
margin varies due to a number of factors including product mix, pricing,
distribution channel, production volumes, and foreign currency
translations.
Gross
margin increased by $31.2 million for the three months ended March 28, 2008, as
compared to the corresponding period in the prior year. Gross margin
as a percentage of total revenue for the three months ended March 28, 2008 was
49.1%, as compared to 50.1% for the three months ended March 30,
2007. The slight decrease in gross margin percentage for the three
month period was driven by higher amortization of purchased intangibles and
acquisition-related inventory step-up, and to a lesser extent, product mix and
unfavorable foreign currency exchange rates.
Operating
Income
Operating
income increased by $18.8 million for the three months ended March 28, 2008, as
compared to the corresponding period in the prior year. Operating
income as a percentage of total revenue was 16.3% for the three months ended
March 28, 2008, as compared to 13.7% for the three months ended March 30,
2007. The increase in operating income percentage for the three month
period was primarily due to strong operating expense control in Mobile Solutions
and Field Solutions and also restructuring charges and IPR&D expenses in the
corresponding period in the prior year.
Results
by Segment
To
achieve distribution, marketing, production, and technology advantages in our
targeted markets, we manage our operations in the following four segments:
Engineering and Construction, Field Solutions, Mobile Solutions, and Advanced
Devices. Operating income equals net revenue less cost of sales and
operating expenses, excluding general corporate expenses, amortization of
purchased intangibles, in-process research and development expenses, and
restructuring charges.

Engineering
and Construction
Engineering
and Construction revenue increased by $18.6 million or 11% for the three months
ended March 28, 2008, as compared to the same corresponding period in fiscal
2007. Segment operating income decreased $5.2 million or 12% for the
three months ended March 28, 2008, as compared to the same corresponding period
in fiscal 2007.
The
revenue growth for the three months ended March 28, 2008 was driven by strong
international sales, partially offset by softness in the U.S.
markets. In addition, for the three months ended March 20, 2008
segment operating income decreased due to unfavorable foreign currency exchange
rates, impact of acquisitions made during the last twelve months, and product
mix.
Field
Solutions
Field
Solutions revenue increased by $37.1 million or 73% for the three months ended
March 28, 2008, as compared to the same corresponding period in fiscal
2007. Segment operating income increased by $18.5 million or 111% for
the three months ended March 28, 2008, as compared to the same corresponding
period in fiscal 2007.
The
revenue increase for the three month periods ended March 28, 2008 was driven by
the introduction of new agricultural products and a worldwide robust
agricultural market. Operating income increased primarily due to higher revenue,
gross margin improvement, and operating expense control.
Mobile
Solutions revenue increased by $14.2 million or 47% for the three months ended
March 28, 2008, as compared to the same corresponding period in fiscal
2007. Segment operating income increased $1.4 million or 141% for the
three months ended March 28, 2008, as compared to the same corresponding period
in fiscal 2007.
Revenue,
for the three months ended March 28, 2008, as compared to the corresponding
period of fiscal 2007 grew due to increased subscription revenue and a full
quarter of @Road revenue as compared to partial quarter of @Road revenue in the
corresponding period in fiscal 2007. Operating income increased for the three
months ended March 28, 2008, as compared to the corresponding period of fiscal
2007 primarily due to higher subscription revenue and associated gross margin
and operating expense control.
Advanced
Devices
Advanced
Devices revenue decreased by $0.2 million or 1% for the three months ended March
28, 2008, as compared to the same corresponding period in fiscal
2007. Segment operating income increased by $1.3 million or 40% for
the three months ended March 28, 2008, as compared to the same corresponding
period in fiscal 2007.
For the
three months ended March 28, 2008, as compared to the corresponding periods in
fiscal 2007, revenue remained relatively flat while segment operating income
increased primarily due to product mix in Component Technologies’
revenue.

Overall,
R&D, S&M, and G&A expense increased by approximately $16.2 million
for the three months ended March 28, 2008, as compared to the corresponding
period in fiscal 2007.
The
increase in R&D expenses in the first quarter of fiscal 2008, as compared to
the first quarter of fiscal 2007, was due in part to an increase in compensation
expenses of $3.4 million primarily due to a full quarter of @Road compensation
expenses as compared to partial quarter of @Road compensation expenses in the
corresponding period in fiscal 2007. The R&D expense increase was also
attributable to a $1.5 million increase due to foreign currency exchange rates
and additional acquisition-related expenses of $0.7 million. All of our R&D
costs have been expensed as incurred. Costs of software developed for external
sale subsequent to reaching technical feasibility were not considered material
and were expensed as incurred.
* We
believe that the development and introduction of new products are critical to
our future success and we expect to continue active development of new
products.
The
increase in S&M expenses in the first quarter of fiscal 2008, as compared to
the corresponding period of fiscal 2007, was due in part to an increase in
compensation expenses of $2.8 million primarily due to a full quarter of @Road
compensation expenses as compared to partial quarter of @Road compensation
expenses in the corresponding period in fiscal 2007. The S&M expense
increase was also attributable to a $1.8 million increase due to foreign
currency exchange rates and additional acquisition-related expenses of $0.6
million.
* Our
future growth will depend in part on the timely development and continued
viability of the markets in which we currently compete as well as our ability to
continue to identify and develop new markets for our products.
The
increase in G&A expenses in the first quarter of fiscal 2008, as compared to
the corresponding period in fiscal 2007, was primarily due to additional
operating expenses associated with recent business acquisitions of $0.8 million
and a $0.6 million increase due to foreign currency exchange rates, offset by a
decrease in bonus expenses..
Amortization
of Purchased Intangible Assets
Amortization
of purchased intangible assets was $10.8 million in the first quarter of fiscal
2008, as compared to $7.9 million in the first quarter of fiscal
2007. The increase was due primarily to a full quarter of @Road
intangibles amortization as compared to partial quarter of @Road intangibles
amortization in the corresponding period in fiscal 2007. As of March
28, 2008, future amortization of intangible assets is expected to be $32.8
million during the remaining three quarters of fiscal 2008, $40.0 million during
2009, $37.8 million during 2010, $32.9 million during 2011, $24.9 million during
2012, and $29.6 million thereafter.
In-Process
Research and Development
We
recorded no in-process research and development (IPR&D) expense during the
three months ended March 28, 2008, as compared to $2.1 million in the
corresponding periods in 2007. At the date of each acquisition, the
projects associated with the IPR&D efforts had not yet reached technological
feasibility and the research and development in process had no alternative
future uses. The value of the IPR&D was determined using a discounted cash
flow model similar to the income approach, focusing on the income producing
capabilities of the in-process technologies. Accordingly, the value assigned to
these IPR&D amounts was charged to expense on the respective acquisition
date of each of the acquired companies.
Restructuring
Charges
In
conjunction with the Company’s acquisition of @Road, we accrued $3.6 million for
severance and benefits in fiscal 2007. These restructuring costs were recorded
in accordance with EITF 95-3 as part of the purchase price with no impact on the
Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. At the end of fiscal 2007, we had a
balance of $1.3 million for such accrual. During the three months ended March
28, 2008, we paid $0.2 million against this restructuring accrual. It decreased
by $0.9 million according to the final @Road purchase price allocation. The
remaining restructuring accrual of $0.2 million as of March 28, 2008 is included
in Other current liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet and is
expected to be settled by the first half of fiscal 2008.
The
Company also recorded restructuring costs of $3.0 million during the first
quarter of fiscal 2007 for charges associated with the acceleration of vesting
of employee stock options for certain terminated @Road employees, of which $1.4
million was settled in cash and $1.6 million was recorded as Shareholder’s
Equity. The amount was recorded in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated
Statements of Income for the three months ended March 30, 2007 under
Restructuring charges. There were no restructuring costs recorded in the first
quarter of fiscal 2008.

Non-operating
income, net, decreased $1.1 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2008, as
compared to the corresponding period in fiscal 2007. Of this decrease, $0.9
million was due to losses on deferred compensation plan investments included in
Other income (expense), net, $0.4 million was due to decreased profits from our
CTCT joint venture, offset in part by an increase of $72,000 in foreign exchange
gains.
Income
Tax Provision
Our
effective income tax rate for the three months ended March 28, 2008 was 33.0%,
as compared to 32.0% for the three months ended March 30, 2007. The
2008 first fiscal quarter rate is lower than the statutory federal income tax
rate of 35% primarily due to the implementation of a global supply chain
structure. The 2007 first quarter fiscal rate was lower than the
statutory federal income tax rate of 35% primarily due to a discrete event
release of the valuation allowance related to California Research and
Development Credit carryforwards.
We
anticipate an annual estimated effective tax rate of 33.0% for fiscal year 2008.
The tax rate could be affected by several factors including stock option
activity, geographic mix of our pre-tax income, legislative changes, changes to
our existing valuation allowances or contingent tax liabilities, and/or discrete
quarterly events.
OFF-BALANCE
SHEET FINANCINGS AND LIABILITIES
Other
than lease commitments incurred in the normal course of business, we do not have
any off-balance sheet financing arrangements or liabilities, guarantee
contracts, retained or contingent interests in transferred assets, or any
obligation arising out of a material variable interest in an unconsolidated
entity. We do not have any majority-owned subsidiaries that are not included in
the consolidated financial statements. Additionally, we do not have any interest
in, or relationship with, any special purpose entities.
In the
normal course of business to facilitate sales of its products, we indemnify
other parties, including customers, lessors, and parties to other transactions
with the Company, with respect to certain matters. We have agreed to hold the
other party harmless against losses arising from a breach of representations or
covenants, or out of intellectual property infringement or other claims made
against certain parties. These agreements may limit the time within which an
indemnification claim can be made and the amount of the claim. In addition, we
have entered into indemnification agreements with its officers and directors,
and the Company’s bylaws contain similar indemnification obligations to our
agents.
It is not
possible to determine the maximum potential amount under these indemnification
agreements due to the limited history of prior indemnification claims and the
unique facts and circumstances involved in each particular agreement.
Historically, payments made by us under these agreements were not material and
no liabilities have been recorded for these obligations on the Consolidated
Condensed Balance Sheets as of March 28, 2008 and December 28,
2007.

Cash
and Cash Equivalents
As of
March 28, 2008, cash and cash equivalents totaled $71.4 million compared to
$103.2 million at December 30, 2007. We had debt of $60.6 million compared to
$60.7 million at December 28, 2007.
* Our
ability to continue to generate cash from operations will depend in large part
on profitability, the rate of collections of accounts receivable, our inventory
turns, and our ability to manage other areas of working
capital.
* We
believe that our cash and cash equivalents, together with our revolving credit
facilities will be sufficient to meet our anticipated operating cash needs and
stock purchases under the stock repurchase program for at least the next twelve
months.
* We
anticipate that planned capital expenditures primarily for computer equipment,
software, manufacturing tools and test equipment, and leasehold improvements
associated with business expansion, will constitute a partial use of our cash
resources. Decisions related to how much cash is used for investing
are influenced by the expected amount of cash to be provided by
operations.
Operating
Activities
Cash
provided by operating activities was $20.7 million for the first quarter of
fiscal 2008, as compared to $31.7 million for the first quarter of fiscal
2007. This decrease of $11.0 million was primarily driven by an
increase in accounts receivable.
Investing
Activities
Cash used
in investing activities was $43.3 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2008,
as compared to $275.9 million for the first quarter of fiscal
2007. The decrease was due to a decrease of $232.6 million in cash
used for acquisitions, attributable primarily to @Road which was acquired in the
first quarter of fiscal 2007.
Financing
Activities
Cash used
by financing activities was $15.7 million for the first quarter of 2008, as
compared to cash provided of $182.7 million for the first quarter of fiscal
2007, primarily due to the stock repurchase of $25.9 million in the first
quarter of fiscal 2008 and outstanding debt that was incurred for the @Road
acquisition in the corresponding period in fiscal 2007.

Accounts
receivable days sales outstanding were 72 days as of March 28, 2008, as compared
to 70 days as of December 28, 2007 due to an increase in deferred revenue
balances and seasonality of Agriculture and Construction revenue in the month of
March. Our accounts receivable days sales outstanding are calculated based
on ending accounts receivable, net divided by revenue times 91 days. Our
inventory turns were at 4.3 as of March 28, 2008 as compared to 4.3 for the
fourth quarter of fiscal 2007. Our inventory turnover is based on the
total cost of sales for the fiscal period over the average inventory for the
corresponding fiscal period.
Debt
Our total
debt was approximately $60.6 million as of March 28, 2008 compared to $60.7
million as of December 28, 2007, attributable to debt originally incurred for
the @Road acquisition.
On July
28, 2005, we entered into a $200 million unsecured revolving credit agreement
(the 2005 Credit Facility) with a syndicate of 10 banks with The Bank of Nova
Scotia as the administrative agent. The funds available under the
2005 Credit Facility may be used for our general corporate purposes and up to
$25 million of the 2005 Credit Facility may be used for letters of
credit. We incurred a commitment fee when the 2005 Credit Facility
was not used. The commitment fee is not material to our results
during all periods presented.
On
February 16, 2007, the Company amended its existing $200 million unsecured
revolving credit agreement with a syndicate of 11 banks with The Bank of Nova
Scotia as the administrative agent (the 2007 Credit Facility). Under the 2007
Credit Facility, the Company exercised the option in the existing credit
agreement to increase the availability under the revolving credit line by $100
million, for an aggregate availability of up to $300 million, and extended the
maturity date of the revolving credit line by 18 months, from July 2010 to
February 2012. Up to $25 million of the availability under the
revolving credit line may be used to issue letters of credit, and up to $20
million may be used for swing line loans. In addition, during the
first quarter of fiscal 2007 the Company incurred a five-year term loan under
the 2007 Credit Facility in an aggregate principal amount of $100 million, which
will mature concurrently with the revolving credit line. The term
loan will be repaid in quarterly installments, with principal being amortized at
the following annual rates: year 1 at 10%, year 2 at 15%, year 3 at 15%, year 4
at 20%, year 5 at 20%, and the last quarterly payment to be made at maturity,
together with a final payment of 20%. The maximum leverage
ratio under the 2007 Credit Facility is 3.00:1. The funds
available under the new 2007 Credit Facility may be used by the Company for
acquisitions, stock repurchases, and general corporate purposes. For
additional discussion of our debt, see Note 9 of Notes to the Condensed
Consolidated Financial Statements.
We may
borrow funds under the 2007 Credit Facility in U.S. Dollars or in certain other
currencies, and borrowings will bear interest, at the Company's option, at
either: (i) a base rate, based on the administrative agent's prime rate, plus a
margin of between 0% and 0.125%, depending on the Company's leverage ratio as of
its most recently ended fiscal quarter, or (ii) a reserve-adjusted rate based on
the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), Euro Interbank Offered Rate
(EURIBOR), Stockholm Interbank Offered Rate (STIBOR), or other agreed-upon rate,
depending on the currency borrowed, plus a margin of between 0.625% and 1.125%,
depending on the Company's leverage ratio as of the most recently ended fiscal
quarter. The Company's obligations under the 2007 Credit Facility are guaranteed
by certain of the Company's domestic subsidiaries.
The 2007
Credit Facility contains customary affirmative, negative and financial covenants
including, among other requirements, negative covenants that restrict the
Company's ability to dispose of assets, create liens, incur indebtedness,
repurchase stock, pay dividends, make acquisitions, make investments, enter into
mergers and consolidations and make capital expenditures, within certain
limitations, and financial covenants that require the maintenance of leverage
and fixed charge coverage ratios. The 2007 Credit Facility contains events of
default that include, among others, non-payment of principal, interest or fees,
breach of covenants, inaccuracy of representations and warranties, cross
defaults to certain other indebtedness, bankruptcy and insolvency events,
material judgments, and events constituting a change of control. Upon the
occurrence and during the continuance of an event of default, interest on the
obligations will accrue at an increased rate and the lenders may accelerate the
Company's obligations under the 2007 Credit Facility, however that acceleration
will be automatic in the case of bankruptcy and insolvency events of
default. As of March 28, 2008 we were in compliance with all
financial debt covenants.
We are
exposed to market risk related to changes in interest rates and foreign currency
exchange rates. We use certain derivative financial instruments to manage these
risks. We do not use derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes.
All financial instruments are used in accordance with policies approved by our
board of directors.

(a)
Disclosure Controls and Procedures.
The
management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls
and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")) as of the
end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation,
our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as
of the end of such period, our disclosure controls and procedures are
effective.
(b)
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.
There
have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as
such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act)
during the fiscal quarter to which this report relates that have materially
affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control
over financial reporting.
From time
to time, we are involved in litigation arising out of the ordinary course of its
business. There are no known claims or pending litigation expected to have a
material effect on our overall financial position, results of operations or
liquidity.
A
description of factors that could materially affect our business, financial
condition or operating results is included under “Risk and Uncertainties” in
Item 1A of Part I of our 2007 Annual Report on Form 10-K and is
incorporated herein by reference. There have been no material changes
to the risk factor disclosure since our 2007 Annual Report on Form
10-K.
