</div>
<div align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; text-indent: 4%">The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared
pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, and
U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or U.S. GAAP. However, certain information or
footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S.
GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such SEC rules and regulations. In our opinion,
the financial statements include all adjustments, which are of a normal and recurring nature,
necessary for the fair presentation of the results of the interim periods presented. The results
of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for
the full fiscal year or any future period. These financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our
annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010.
</div>
<div align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; text-indent: 4%">The consolidated financial statements include our financial statements and those of our wholly
owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated
upon consolidation.

<div align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; text-indent: 4%">Our fiscal year is the 52- or 53-week period ending on the last Saturday in June. Our fiscal
2011 will be a 52-week period ending on June 25, 2011. Our fiscal 2010 was a 52-week period ending
on June 26, 2010. The fiscal periods presented in this report were 13-week periods for the three
months ended September 25, 2010 and September 26, 2009. For ease of presentation, the accompanying
consolidated financial statements have been shown as ending on September 30 and calendar quarter
end dates for all annual, interim, and quarterly financial statement captions, unless otherwise
indicated.

</div>
<div align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; text-indent: 4%">The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us
to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue,
expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we
evaluate our estimates, including those related to revenue recognition, allowance for doubtful
accounts, cost of revenue, inventories, product warranty, share-based compensation costs, provision
for income taxes, income taxes payable, investments, and contingencies. We base our estimates on
historical experience, applicable laws and regulations, and various other assumptions that we
believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making
judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from
other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or
conditions.

exists, delivery has occurred and title has transferred, the price is fixed or determinable, and
collection is reasonably assured. We accrue for estimated sales returns and other allowances,
based on historical experience, at the time we recognize revenue.

<div align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; text-indent: 4%">Our basic net income per share amounts for each period presented have been computed using the
weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Our diluted net income per share
amounts for each period presented include the weighted average effect of potentially dilutive
shares. We use the “treasury stock” method to determine the dilutive effect of our share-based
awards and Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes, or Notes. No shares associated with our Notes
were included in dilutive shares for the periods presented as the weighted average share price
during each period was less than the conversion price of $33.69.

and 2,899,824 share-based awards that were outstanding during the three months ended September 30,
2010 and 2009, respectively. These share-based awards were not included in the computation of
diluted net income per share because the proceeds received, if any, from such share-based awards
combined with the average unamortized compensation costs adjusted for the hypothetical tax benefit
or deficiency creditable or chargeable, respectively, to additional paid-in capital were greater
than the average market price of our common stock, and therefore, their effect would have been
antidilutive.

</div>
<div align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; text-indent: 4%">Cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months
or less. Our non-current investments include auction rate securities, or ARS, which are reported
at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and are shown separately as
a component of accumulated other comprehensive income within stockholders’ equity. We charge any
other-than-temporary declines in the fair value of a debt security to earnings (within impairment
(loss)/recovery on investments, net) if the decline results from a credit loss or to other
comprehensive income if the decline results from a noncredit loss. We charge any
other-than-temporary declines in the fair value of equity securities to earnings (within impairment
(loss)/recovery on investments, net). Other-than-temporary declines result in the establishment of
a new cost basis for the security. We include interest earned on investments in interest income.
</div>
<div align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; text-indent: 4%">Our ARS investments, which have a par value of $40.5 million, have failed to settle in
auctions beginning in September 2007. These investments are not liquid, and in the event we need
to access these funds prior to their maturity, we will not be able to do so without a loss of
principal, unless redeemed by the issuers or a future auction on these investments is successful.
During the three months ended September 30, 2010, we recognized a gain of $10,000 on the redemption
at par of $200,000 of our ARS investments, which is included in impairment (loss)/recovery on
investments, net. During the three months ended September 30, 2009, $700,000 of our ARS
investments were redeemed at par, and we recognized a gain of $6,000 on the redemption of these
investments, which is included in impairment (loss)/recovery on investments, net.

We will continue to monitor our ARS investments and evaluate our accounting for these investments

its order and we purchase inventory from our contract manufacturers, we consider a write-down to
reduce the carrying value of the inventory purchased to its net realizable value. We charge
write-downs to reduce the carrying value of obsolete, slow moving, and non-usable inventory to net
realizable value to cost of revenue. The effect of these write-downs is to establish a new cost
basis in the related inventory, which we do not subsequently write up.

<div align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; text-indent: 4%">In December 2004, we issued an aggregate of $125 million of Notes maturing December 1, 2024 in
a private offering pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the
Securities Act. In connection with issuing the Notes, we incurred debt issuance costs of $4.3
million, consisting primarily of the initial purchasers’ discount and costs related to legal,
accounting, and printing, which were amortized over five years. We used the net proceeds for
working capital and general corporate purposes.

<div align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; text-indent: 4%">In fiscal 2009, we repurchased and retired $59.7 million of our outstanding Notes at a
discount from par of approximately 7%, which resulted in a $1.1 million net loss on retirement of
debt after deducting the associated unamortized debt discount and debt issuance costs. In fiscal
2010, we repurchased and retired $63.0 million par value of our Notes when investors exercised
their rights to require us to repurchase their Notes. Accordingly, as of September 30, 2010, $2.3
million par value of our Notes remained outstanding and have been classified as long-term as the
next date Noteholders can require us to repurchase all or a portion of their Notes is beyond one
year.

ended September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. As of December 31, 2009, the amortization of the
discount and debt issuance costs was complete, and the if-converted value of the Notes did not

<div align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; text-indent: 4%">We utilize the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the grant date fair value of
certain employee share-based compensatory awards, which requires the input of highly subjective
assumptions, including expected volatility and expected life. Historical and implied volatilities
were used in estimating the fair value of our share-based awards, while the expected life of our
options and estimated forfeitures for share-based awards that are not expected to vest were
estimated based on historical trends since our initial public offering. Changes in these inputs
and assumptions can materially affect the measure of estimated fair value of our share-based
compensation. We charge the estimated fair value less estimated forfeitures to earnings on a
straight-line basis over the vesting period of the underlying awards, which is generally four years
for our stock options and deferred stock units and up to two years for our employee stock purchase
plan. The Black-Scholes option pricing model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of
traded options having no vesting restrictions and being fully transferable. As our stock option
and employee stock purchase plan awards have characteristics that differ significantly from traded
options and, as changes in the subjective assumptions can materially affect the estimated value,
our estimate of fair value may not accurately represent the value assigned by a third party in an
arms’-length transaction. While our estimate of fair value and the associated charge to earnings
materially affects our results of operations, it has no impact on our cash position.

we cannot recognize tax benefit concurrent with the recognition of share-based compensation
expenses associated with incentive stock options (qualified stock options) and employee stock
purchase plan shares. For qualified stock options that vested after we began expensing share-based
compensation, we recognize tax benefit only in the period when disqualifying dispositions of the
underlying stock occur, which historically has been up to several years after vesting and in a
period when our stock price substantially increases. For qualified stock options that vested prior
to when we began expensing share-based compensation, we record the tax benefit directly to
additional paid-in capital.

benefit on the grant date fair values of the corresponding share-based awards. Tax benefit
associated with excess tax deduction creditable to additional paid-in capital is not recognized
until the deduction reduces taxes payable. During the three-month periods ended September 30, 2010

options or nonqualified stock options to purchase shares of our common stock at not less than 100%

</div>
<div align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; text-indent: 4%">We account for income taxes under the asset and liability method. We consider the operating
earnings of our foreign subsidiaries to be indefinitely invested outside the United States.
Accordingly, no provision has been made for the U.S. federal or state or foreign taxes that may
result from future remittances of undistributed earnings of our foreign subsidiaries.
</div>
<div align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; text-indent: 4%">The provision for income taxes of $3.9 million and $3.2 million for the three months ended
September 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, represented estimated federal, foreign, and state taxes.
The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2010 was 17.2% and diverged from
the combined federal and state statutory rate primarily because of foreign income taxed at lower
tax rates and state research credits, partially offset by net unrecognized tax benefit associated
with qualified stock options. The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2009
was 24.9% and diverged from the combined federal and state statutory rate primarily as a result of
foreign income taxed at lower tax rates, the benefit of federal and state research tax credits, and
the impact of tax-exempt interest income, partially offset by net unrecognized tax benefit
associated with qualified stock options, the impairment of an investment for which a valuation
allowance was established, and the establishment of a valuation allowance on certain deferred tax
assets.

</div>
<div align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; text-indent: 4%">The total liability for gross unrecognized tax benefits increased $924,000 during the quarter
ended September 30, 2010 to $19.9 million from $19.0 million at June 30, 2010. The liability for
gross unrecognized tax benefit, if recognized, would reduce the effective tax rate on income from
continuing operations. The increase consisted of an addition of $924,000 for a current year tax
position. The total interest and penalties accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits as of the
end of fiscal 2010 was $1.2 million. The liability for gross interest expense and penalties
increased by $153,000 to $1.4 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2010. We classify
interest and penalties, if any, as components of income tax expense.
</div>
<div align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; text-indent: 4%">No material unrecognized tax benefit is expected to be paid within one year, and we cannot
make a reliable estimate when cash settlement with a taxing authority may occur. Any prospective
adjustments to our unrecognized tax benefits will be recorded as an increase or decrease to income
tax expense and cause a corresponding change to our effective tax rate. Accordingly, our effective
tax rate could fluctuate materially from period to period.
</div>
<div align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; text-indent: 4%">It is reasonably possible that the amount of the liability for unrecognized tax benefits may
change within the next twelve months. An estimate of the range of possible changes cannot be made
at this time because of the high uncertainty of the resolution of our tax positions with the
various tax jurisdictions in which we operate. Accordingly, the unrecognized tax benefits from
prior year tax positions that may be necessary to accrue or reverse for the next twelve months
cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.
</div>
<div align="justify" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; text-indent: 4%">Our major tax jurisdictions are the United States, California, and Hong Kong SAR and fiscal

will be retroactively reinstated or reinstated at all. If the research credit is not reinstated,
our tax rate in future periods will continue to be negatively impacted.

2011. This proposition will be voted on by California residents on November 2, 2010. If passed,
our effective tax rate for the quarter ending December 31, 2010 would benefit from a material
one-time net credit, primarily to remove valuation allowances associated with certain California
deferred tax assets.
