In the opinion of the management of Emulex Corporation (Emulex or the Company), the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain adjustments, including normal recurring accruals necessary to present fairly the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, comprehensive loss, and cash flows. Interim results for the three and nine months ended March 29, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending June 28, 2015. The accompanying condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 29, 2014. The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements requires the use of estimates and actual results could differ materially from management’s estimates.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Emulex and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
