TERADYNE, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

A. The Company

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

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 year’s amounts were reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. The December 31, 2009 condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

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 1, 2010 for the year ended December 31, 2009.

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.

Revenue Recognition

In October 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) amended the accounting standards for revenue recognition to remove tangible products containing non-software and software components that function together to deliver the product’s essential functionality from the scope of industry-specific software revenue recognition guidance. In October 2009, FASB also amended the accounting standards for arrangements with multiple deliverables. Teradyne elected to early adopt this accounting guidance at the beginning of its first quarter of 2010 on a prospective basis. Adoption had no material impact on Teradyne’s financial position or results of operations in the three months ended April 4, 2010.

Teradyne recognizes revenue when there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement, title and risk of loss have passed, delivery has occurred or the services have been rendered, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collection of the related receivable is reasonably assured. Title and risk of loss generally pass to Teradyne’s customers upon shipment or at delivery destination point. In circumstances where either title or risk of loss pass upon destination, acceptance or cash payment, Teradyne defers revenue recognition until such events occur.

Teradyne’s equipment has non-software and software components that function together to deliver the equipment’s essential functionality. Revenue is recognized upon shipment or at delivery destination point, provided that customer acceptance criteria can be demonstrated prior to shipment. Certain contracts require

Table of Contents

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

 

Teradyne to perform tests of the product to ensure that performance meets the published product specifications or customer requested specifications, which are generally conducted prior to shipment. Where the criteria cannot be demonstrated prior to shipment, revenue is deferred until customer acceptance has been received. Teradyne also defers the portion of the sales price that is not due until acceptance, which represents deferred profit.

For multiple element arrangements, Teradyne allocates revenue to all deliverables based on their relative selling prices. In such circumstances, a hierarchy is used to determine the selling price for allocating revenue to deliverables as follows: (i) vendor-specific objective evidence of selling price (“VSOE”), (ii) third-party evidence of selling price (“TPE”), and (iii) best estimate of the selling price (“BESP”). For a delivered item to be considered a separate unit, the delivered item must have value to the customer on a standalone basis and the delivery or performance of the undelivered item must be considered probable and substantially in the control of Teradyne.

Teradyne’s post-shipment obligations include installation, training services, one-year standard warranties, and extended warranties. Installation does not alter the product capabilities, does not require specialized skills or tools and can be performed by the customers or other vendors. Installation is typically provided within five days of product shipment and is completed within one to two days thereafter. Training services are optional and do not affect the customer’s ability to use the product. Teradyne defers revenue for the selling price of installation and training.

C. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2010, FASB issued an Accounting Standards Update 2010-17, “Milestone Method of Revenue Recognition”, to Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 605, “Revenue Recognition.” The guidance in this consensus allows the milestone method as an acceptable revenue recognition methodology when an arrangement includes substantive milestones. The guidance provides a definition of substantive milestone and should be applied regardless of whether the arrangement includes single or multiple deliverables or units of accounting. The scope of this consensus is limited to the transactions involving milestones relating to research and development deliverables. The guidance includes enhanced disclosure requirements about each arrangement, individual milestones and related contingent consideration, information about substantive milestones and factors considered in the determination. The consensus is effective prospectively to milestones achieved in fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, after June 15, 2010. Early application and retrospective application are permitted. Teradyne is currently evaluating this final consensus.

D. Financial Instruments and Derivatives

Financial Instruments

Teradyne uses the market and income approach to value its financial instruments and there was no change in valuation techniques used by Teradyne during the quarters ended April 4, 2010 and April 5, 2009. As defined in ASC 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, fair value is the price that would be received from the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. ASC 820-10 requires that assets and liabilities carried at fair value and be classified in one of the following three categories:

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

Level 2: Inputs other than Level 1, that are observable either directly or indirectly as of the reporting 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.

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

TERADYNE, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

 

For the right to sell the auction rate securities, held by Teradyne, back to UBS (“UBS Put”), Teradyne elected fair value treatment under ASC 825-10, “Financial Instruments.” The UBS Put is the only instrument of this nature or type that Teradyne holds and for which Teradyne has elected the fair value option under ASC 825-10.

In January 2010, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2010-6,“Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurement”, which requires interim disclosures regarding significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements. Additionally, this ASU requires disclosure for each class of assets and liabilities and disclosures about the valuation techniques and inputs used to measure fair value for both recurring and non-recurring fair value measurements. These disclosures are required for fair value measurements that fall in either Level 2 or Level 3. Further, the ASU requires separate presentation of Level 3 activity for the fair value measurements. Teradyne adopted the interim disclosure requirements under this ASU during the quarter ended April 4, 2010, with the exception of the separate presentation in the Level 3 activity rollforward, which is not effective until fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010 and for interim periods within those fiscal years.

During three months ended April 4, 2010, there were no significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2.

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 4, 2010 and December 31, 2009.

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.

As of April 4, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the fair market value of investments with unrealized losses totaled $80.3 million and $34.8 million, respectively. Teradyne determined that the unrealized losses in the amount of $0.2 million and $0.6 million, respectively, related to these investments are temporary.

Derivatives

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. 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 monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies was $53.3 million and $56.9 million at April 4, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively.

E. Debt

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 $10.0 million. The loan has a term of 5 years and a fixed interest rate of 1.4%. Approximately $6.0 million of the loan is collateralized by a real estate mortgage on Teradyne K.K.’s building and land in Kumamoto, Japan and approximately $4.0 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 $1.0 million payable on September 30 and March 30 each year. At April 4, 2010, approximately $2.1 million of the outstanding loan principal is included in current debt and approximately $6.4 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 are senior unsecured obligations and rank equally with all of Teradyne’s existing and future senior debt and senior to any of Teradyne’s subordinated debt.

The Notes may be converted, 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.

Holders may convert their Notes at their option prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding December 15, 2013, under the following circumstances: (1) during the five business-day period after any five consecutive trading day period (the “measurement period”) in which the price per Note for each day of that measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of Teradyne’s common stock and the conversion rate for such date; (2) during any calendar quarter, if the last reported sale price of Teradyne’s common stock for 20 or more trading days in a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter exceeds 130% of the applicable conversion price in effect on the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter; or (3) upon the occurrence of certain specified events. Additionally, the Notes are convertible during the last three months prior to the March 15, 2014 maturity date. 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.

During the three months ended April 4, 2010, the following circumstance that allows holders to convert their Notes at their option prior to December 15, 2013 occurred: the last reported sale price of Teradyne’s common stock for 20 or more trading days in a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter exceeded 130% of the conversion price in effect on the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter. As of May 14, 2010, no holders have exercised their option to convert their Notes.

Teradyne may not redeem the Notes prior to their maturity. Holders of the Notes may require Teradyne to purchase in cash all or a portion of their Notes at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, upon the occurrence of certain fundamental changes involving Teradyne (which include, among others, the liquidation or dissolution of Teradyne, the acquisition of 50% or more of the total voting shares of Teradyne, certain mergers and consolidations, and the delisting of Teradyne’s stock).

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 paid approximately $64.6 million for the convertible note hedges.

TERADYNE, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)

 

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 received approximately $43.0 million for the warrants.

The convertible notes hedge and warrant transaction will generally have the effect of increasing the conversion price of the Notes to approximately $7.67 per share of Teradyne’s common stock, representing a 75% conversion premium based upon the closing price of Teradyne’s common stock on March 31, 2009.

The notes are classified as long-term debt in the balance sheet at April 4, 2010 and December 31, 2009. The below tables represent the components of Teradyne’s convertible senior notes:

As of April 4, 2010, the conversion rate was equal to the initial conversion price of approximately $5.48 per share and the if-converted value of the Notes was $390.1 million.

Revolving Credit Facility

On April 7, 2009, Teradyne terminated its revolving credit facility agreement. Teradyne used approximately $123.3 million of the net proceeds of the Notes offering to repay $122.5 million of principal and $0.8 million of accrued interest outstanding under the revolving credit facility agreement.

officers. The total number of restricted stock units granted was 2.6 million at the weighted average grant date fair value of $9.34. Service-based restricted stock units granted to employees and executive officers vest in equal installments over four years. The percentage level of performance satisfied for performance-based grants is assessed on or near the anniversary of the grant date and, in turn, that percentage level determines the number of performance-based restricted stock units available for vesting over the vesting period; portions of the performance-based grants not available for vesting are forfeited. The total number of stock options granted to executive officers was 0.3 million at the weighted average grant date fair value of $4.10. These stock options vest in equal installments over four years, and have a term of seven years from the date of grant.

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 executive officers. 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 and stock options vest in equal installments over four years. These 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:

Teradyne determined the stock options’ expected life based upon historical exercise data for executive officers, the age of the executive officers and the terms of the stock option grant. Volatility was determined using historical volatility for a period equal to the expected life. The risk-free rate was determined using the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.

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 and inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

Teradyne’s call option on its common stock (convertible note hedge transaction) is excluded from the calculation of diluted shares because the effect would be anti-dilutive. See Debt footnote E regarding convertible note hedge transaction.

L. Restructuring and Other, Net

Restructuring

In response to a downturn in the industry, Teradyne initiated restructuring activities across all segments to reduce costs, principally through headcount reductions and facility consolidations. The tables below represent activity related to these actions. The remaining accrual for severance and benefits is reflected in the accrued employees’ compensation and withholdings account on the balance sheet and is expected to be paid by the end of the second quarter of 2010. The remaining accrual for lease payments on vacated facilities is reflected in the other accrued liabilities account and the long-term other accrued liabilities account and is expected to be paid over the lease terms, the latest of which expires in 2013. Teradyne expects to pay approximately $3.7 million against the lease accruals over the next twelve months. Teradyne’s future lease commitments are net of expected sublease income of $5.1 million as of April 4, 2010.

Item 2:Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

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. See also Part II, Item 1A of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements which reflect management’s analysis only as of the date hereof. Teradyne assumes no obligation to update these forward-looking statements to reflect actual results or changes in factors or assumptions affecting forward-looking statements, except as may be required by law.

Overview

Teradyne is a leading global supplier of automatic test equipment. We design, develop, manufacture, and sell automatic test systems and solutions used to test complex electronics in the consumer electronics, automotive, computing, telecommunications, and aerospace and defense industries. Our automatic test equipment products and services include:

 

  

semiconductor test (“Semiconductor Test”) systems; and

 

  

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

We have a broad customer base which includes integrated device manufacturers (“IDMs”), outsourced sub-assembly and test providers (“OSATs”), wafer foundries, fabless companies that design, but contract with others for the manufacture of integrated circuits (“ICs”), manufacturers of circuit boards, automotive companies, HDD manufacturers, aerospace and military contractors as well as the United States Department of Defense.

The sales of our products and services are dependent, to a large degree, on customers who are subject to cyclical trends in the demand for their products. These cyclical periods have had, and will continue to have, a significant effect on our business since our customers often delay or accelerate purchases in reaction to changes in their businesses and to demand fluctuations in the semiconductor industry. Historically, these demand fluctuations have resulted in significant variations in our results of operations. This was particularly relevant beginning in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2008 where we saw a significant decrease in revenue in our Semiconductor Test business which was impacted by the deteriorating global economy, which negatively impacted the entire semiconductor industry. The sharp swings in the semiconductor industry in recent years have generally affected the semiconductor test equipment and services industry more significantly than the overall capital equipment sector.

In response to the business downturn, we implemented significant permanent and temporary cost reduction measures. We reduced headcount worldwide, cut capital spending, and imposed temporary salary reductions and furloughs on our workforce. Due to the continued improvement in our business, we removed the temporary salary reductions and furloughs by the end of last year. We believe the permanent cost-cutting measures we took in the last two years will be of long term value. In the last two quarters, we have experienced improvement in our business, particularly in our semiconductor test business. We believe our acquisitions of Nextest and Eagle Test and our entry into the high speed memory and HDD markets have enhanced our opportunities for growth. We will continue to invest in our business in anticipation of a broader recovery in our markets and to expand further our addressable markets while tightly managing our costs. As the last two quarters have demonstrated, with our current cost structure, we can achieve significantly higher profitability than we achieved at comparable revenue levels in the past.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

We have identified the policies which are critical to understanding our business and our results of operations. Except as stated below, management believes that there have been no significant changes during the three months ended April 4, 2010 to the items disclosed as our critical accounting policies and estimates in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009.

Revenue Recognition

In October 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) amended the accounting standards for revenue recognition to remove tangible products containing non-software and software components that function together to deliver the product’s essential functionality from the scope of industry-specific software revenue recognition guidance. In October 2009, FASB also amended the accounting standards for arrangements with multiple deliverables. We elected to early adopt this accounting guidance at the beginning of its first quarter of 2010 on prospective basis. Adoption had no material impact on our financial position or results of operations in the three months ended April 4, 2010.

We recognize revenue when there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement, title and risk of loss have passed, delivery has occurred or the services have been rendered, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collection of the related receivable is reasonably assured. Title and risk of loss generally pass to our customers upon shipment or at delivery destination point. In circumstances where either title or risk of loss pass upon destination, acceptance or cash payment, we defer revenue recognition until such events occur.

Our equipment has non-software and software components that function together to deliver the equipment’s essential functionality. Revenue is recognized upon shipment or at delivery destination point, provided that customer acceptance criteria can be demonstrated prior to shipment. Certain contracts require us to perform tests of the product to ensure that performance meets the published product specifications or customer requested specifications, which are generally conducted prior to shipment. Where the criteria cannot be demonstrated prior to shipment, revenue is deferred until customer acceptance has been received. We also defer the portion of the sales price that is not due until acceptance, which represents deferred profit.

For multiple element arrangements, we allocate revenue to all deliverables based on their relative selling prices. In such circumstances, a hierarchy is used to determine the selling price for allocating revenue to deliverables as follows: (i) vendor-specific objective evidence of selling price (“VSOE”), (ii) third-party evidence of selling price (“TPE”), and (iii) best estimate of the selling price (“BESP”). For a delivered item to be considered a separate unit, the delivered item must have value to the customer on a standalone basis and the delivery or performance of the undelivered item must be considered probable and substantially in our control.

Our post-shipment obligations include installation, training services, one-year standard warranties, and extended warranties. Installation does not alter the product capabilities, does not require specialized skills or tools and can be performed by the customers or other vendors. Installation is typically provided within five days of product shipment and is completed within one to two days thereafter. Training services are optional and do not affect the customer’s ability to use the product. We defer revenue for the selling price of installation and training.

These increases were partially offset by a decrease of 1.6 points primarily due to higher variable compensation.

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 positions. 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.

During the three months ended April 4, 2010, we recorded an inventory provision of $1.4 million included in cost of revenues. Of the $1.4 million of total excess and obsolete provisions recorded in the three months ended April 4, 2010, $0.9 million was related to Systems Test Group, and $0.5 million was related to Semiconductor Test.

During the three months ended April 5, 2009, we recorded an inventory provision of $8.6 million included in cost of revenues, due to the following factors:

 

  

Downward revisions to previously forecasted demand levels as a result of worsening economic conditions experienced in the semiconductor and automotive industries in the first quarter of 2009 resulted in an inventory provision of $5.9 million for inventory not expected to be consumed; and

 

  

During late 2008, we introduced the next versions of our Nextest Magnum memory test product. At that time, it was anticipated that demand would continue for the existing version of the product within its installed base of customers. An overall decline in the memory market combined with a portion of our customers accelerating their purchasing of the newer version of the product resulted in an inventory provision of $2.7 million.

During the three months ended April 4, 2010 and April 5, 2009, we scrapped $1.0 million and $1.1 million of inventory, respectively. As of April 4, 2010, we had inventory related reserves for amounts which had been written-down or written-off totaling $131.9 million. We have no pre-determined timeline to scrap the remaining inventory.

Restructuring and Other, Net

Restructuring

In response to a downturn in the industry, we initiated restructuring activities across all segments to reduce costs, principally through headcount reductions and facility consolidations. The table below represents activity related to these actions. The remaining accrual for severance and benefits is reflected in the accrued employees’ compensation and withholdings account on the balance sheet and is expected to be paid by the end of the second quarter of 2010. The remaining accrual for lease payments on vacated facilities is reflected in the other accrued liabilities account and the long-term other accrued liabilities account and is expected to be paid over the lease terms, the latest of which expires in 2013. We expect to pay approximately $3.7 million against the lease accruals over the next twelve months. Our future lease commitments are net of expected sublease income of $5.1 million as of April 4, 2010.

During the three months ended April 4, 2010, we recorded restructuring charges related to ongoing efforts to lower expenses and our cost structure and an additional charge due to a change in estimated severance benefits related to a prior period activity. The restructuring charges consisted of the following activities:

Q1 2010 Activity:

 

  

$0.8 million of severance charges related to headcount reductions of approximately 14 people, of which $0.4 million and 4 people were in Semiconductor Test and $0.4 million and 10 people were in Systems Test Group.

Q2 2009 Activity:

 

  

$0.5 million related to a change in the estimated severance benefits related to Q2 2009 headcount reduction activities across both segments.

During the three months ended April 5, 2009, we recorded restructuring charges related to ongoing efforts to lower expenses and our cost structure in light of the industry wide decline in orders for semiconductor equipment. The restructuring charges consisted of the following activities:

Q1 2009 Activity:

 

  

$16.7 million of severance charges related to headcount reductions of approximately 518 people, of which $14.0 million and 456 people were in Semiconductor Test, $1.9 million and 37 people were in Systems Test Group, and $0.8 million and 16 people were in Corporate.

Other

During the three months ended April 5, 2009, we recorded a credit of $0.7 million related to finalization of certain Eagle Test purchase accounting items.

Interest and Other

Interest income increased by $0.1 million from the first quarter of 2009 to 2010 due primarily to higher cash balances. Interest expense and other increased by $0.1 million from the first quarter of 2009 to 2010 due primarily to $4.9 million of interest expense related to our convertible note, partially offset by a decrease of $1.8 million in losses on our marketable securities, and a $1.0 million decrease in foreign exchange losses. In addition, the first quarter of 2009 included $2.0 million of interest expense related to our revolving credit facility.

Income Taxes

For the three months ended April 4, 2010, we recorded a tax provision of $4.8 million, which consisted primarily of foreign 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. Due to the continued uncertainty of realization, we have maintained our valuation allowance at April 4, 2010 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.

(1)Non-cancelable lease payments have not been reduced by sublease income of $5.1 million due in the future under non-cancelable sublease agreements.

 

(2)As of April 4, 2010, the total amount of unrecognized tax benefit for uncertain tax positions and the accrual for the related interest, net of the federal benefit, was $9.1 million and $1.2 million, respectively, and was included in current and long-term other accrued liabilities. We are unable to make a reasonably reliable estimate of when a cash settlement will occur with tax authorities as the timing of examinations and ultimate resolutions of those examinations is uncertain.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities balance increased $13.9 million in the first three months of 2010 to $532.7 million. Cash activity for the first three months of 2010 and 2009 was as follows:

In the three months ended April 4, 2010, changes in operating assets and liabilities, net of businesses acquired, used cash of $59.3 million. This was due primarily to a $35.4 million decrease in deferred revenue due to shipments of systems prepaid by customers in 2009, a $6.7 million decrease in pension liabilities due to pension contributions, a $4.3 million decrease in other accrued expenses due to convertible note interest payment, and an increase in accounts receivable of $53.5 million, partially offset by a decrease in inventories of $15.5 million due to increased shipments, a decrease in other current assets of $20.1 million, and an increase in accounts payable of $4.4 due to increased sales volume.

In the three months ended April 4, 2010, investing activities used cash of $105.8 million, due to $95.4 million of purchases of marketable securities and $17.6 million of purchases of property, plant and equipment, partially offset by proceeds from sales of marketable securities that provided cash of $7.1 million.

During the three months ended April 4, 2010, financing activities provided cash of $5.0 million due to $6.1 million from the issuance of common stock under stock option and stock purchase plans, partially offset by a payment on long-term debt related to a loan in Japan, of $1.1 million.

In the three months ended April 5, 2009, changes in operating assets and liabilities, net of businesses acquired, used cash of $15.3 million. 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.

In the three months ended April 5, 2009, investing activities provided cash of $4.0 million 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 $532.7 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.

Equity Compensation Plans

As discussed in “Note N: Stock Based Compensation” in our 2009 Form 10-K, we have a 1996 Employee Stock Purchase Plan and a 2006 Equity and Cash Compensation Incentive Plan (the “2006 Equity 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 March 2010, FASB issued an Accounting Standards Update 2010-17, “Milestone Method of Revenue Recognition”, to Accounting Standards Codification 605, “Revenue Recognition.” The guidance in this consensus allows the milestone method as an acceptable revenue recognition methodology when an arrangement includes substantive milestones. The guidance provides a definition of substantive milestone and should be applied regardless of whether the arrangement includes single or multiple deliverables or units of accounting. The scope of this consensus is limited to the transactions involving milestones relating to research and development deliverables. The guidance includes enhanced disclosure requirements about each arrangement, individual milestones and related contingent consideration, information about substantive milestones and factors considered in the determination. The consensus is effective prospectively to milestones achieved in fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, after June 15, 2010. Early application and retrospective application are permitted. We are currently evaluating this final consensus.

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 1, 2010. 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, 2009.

 

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.
