NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

1. Basis of Presentation

The consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared by Cirrus Logic, Inc. (“Cirrus Logic,” “we,” “us,” “our,” or the “Company”) pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”). The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements do not include complete footnotes and financial presentations. As a result, these financial statements should be read along with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended March 30, 2019, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Commission on May 24, 2019. In our opinion, the financial statements reflect all material adjustments, including normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, operating results and cash flows for those periods presented. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with United States (“U.S.”) generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions. Moreover, the results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire year. Additionally, certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation, with no impact to earnings.

2. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2016-02, Leases, which the Company adopted in the first quarter of fiscal year 2020. The new standard provides a number of optional practical expedients in transition. We elected the use-of-hindsight practical expedient and the ‘package of practical expedients’ which permit us not to reassess our prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification and initial direct costs. The new standard also provides practical expedients for an entity’s ongoing accounting. We elected the short-term lease recognition exemption for all leases that qualify. This means, for qualifying leases, which are those with terms of less than twelve months, we will not recognize right-of-use ("ROU") assets or lease liabilities. We also do not separate lease and non-lease components for all classes of assets. Most of our operating lease commitments were subject to the new standard and recognized as ROU assets and operating lease liabilities upon adoption, which materially increased the total assets and total liabilities that we reported relative to such amounts prior to adoption.

In applying the use-of-hindsight practical expedient, we re-assessed whether we were reasonably certain to exercise extension options within our lease agreements. This resulted in the lease term being extended on a number of leases. The previously capitalized initial direct costs and accrued lease payments were recalculated assuming these extended lease terms had always applied, resulting in an adjustment of $0.7 million net of tax, to opening retained earnings on transition.

On adoption, we recognized additional operating liabilities, with corresponding ROU assets based on the present value of the lease payments over the lease term under current leasing contracts for existing operating leases. In addition, existing capitalized initial direct costs and accrued lease payments were reclassified from prepayments and accruals to the ROU asset. There was no income statement or cash flow statement impact on adoption, nor were prior periods adjusted.

The effects of the changes made to our balance sheet at adoption were as follows (in thousands):



	Balance at March 30, 2019			Impact from ASU 2016-02 Adoption			Balance at March 31, 2019
Financial statement line item:
Prepaid assets	$	30,794		$	(2,833	)	$	27,961
Right-of-use lease assets	—			149,746			149,746
Lease liabilities	—			(14,899		)	(14,899		)
Other accrued liabilities	(16,339		)	11,071			(5,268		)
Non-current lease liabilities	—			(143,085		)	(143,085		)
Other long-term liabilities	(9,889		)	(965		)	(10,854		)
Accumulated deficit	(222,430		)	965			(221,465		)

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. This ASU requires credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities to be presented as an allowance rather than a write-down. Unlike current U.S. GAAP, the credit losses could be reversed with changes in estimates, and recognized in current year earnings. This ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU, but does not expect a material impact to the financial statements upon adoption.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. This ASU eliminates step two of the goodwill impairment test. An impairment charge is to be recognized for the amount by which the current value exceeds the fair value. This ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods. Early adoption is permitted, for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed after January 1, 2017, and should be applied prospectively. An entity is required to disclose the nature of and reason for the change in accounting principle upon transition. That disclosure should be provided in the first annual period and in the interim period within the first annual period when the entity initially adopts the amendments in this update. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU, but does not expect a material impact to the financial statements upon adoption.

In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-02, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income. This ASU allows for the classification of stranded tax effects resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”) from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings. This ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The standard should be applied in the period of adoption or retrospectively to each period (or periods) in which the effect of the change in tax rate is recognized. The Company adopted this ASU in the current fiscal quarter and elected to reclassify the stranded tax effects of $0.3 million from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings in the period of adoption.

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-07, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting. This ASU expands the scope of Topic 718 to include all share-based payment transactions for acquiring goods and services from nonemployees and will apply to all share-based payment transactions in which the grantor acquires goods and services to be used or consumed in its own operations by issuing share-based payment awards. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within that fiscal year, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted this ASU in the current fiscal quarter, with no material impact to the financial statements.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. This ASU adjusts current required disclosures related to fair value measurements. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within that fiscal year, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU, but does not expect a material impact to the financial statements upon adoption.

In August 2018, the Commission adopted the final rule under SEC Release No. 33-10532, Disclosure Update and Simplification, amending certain disclosure requirements that were redundant, duplicative, overlapping, outdated or superseded. In addition, the amendments expanded the disclosure requirements on the analysis of stockholders' equity for interim financial statements. Under the amendments, an analysis of changes in each caption of stockholders' equity presented in the balance sheet must be provided in a note or separate statement. The analysis should present a reconciliation of the beginning balance to the ending balance of each period for which a statement of comprehensive income is required to be filed. The final rule was published in the Federal Register on October 4, 2018, effective November 5, 2018. The Company adopted the amendments in the current fiscal quarter. See consolidated condensed statements of stockholders' equity.

3. Marketable Securities

The Company’s investments that have original maturities greater than 90 days have been classified as available-for-sale securities in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Marketable securities are categorized on the consolidated condensed balance sheet as short- and long-term marketable securities, as appropriate.

The following table is a summary of available-for-sale securities at June 29, 2019 (in thousands):



As of June 29, 2019	Amortized Cost		Gross Unrealized Gains		Gross Unrealized Losses			Estimated Fair Value (Net Carrying Amount)
Corporate debt securities	$	236,150	$	2,474	$	(102	)	$	238,522
Non-U.S. government securities	15,147		109		(7		)	15,249
U.S. Treasury securities	3,623		35		—			3,658
Total securities	$	254,920	$	2,618	$	(109	)	$	257,429

The Company typically invests in highly-rated securities with original maturities generally ranging from one to three years. The Company's specifically identified gross unrealized loss of $0.1 million related to securities with total amortized cost of approximately $56.1 million at June 29, 2019. Securities in a continuous unrealized loss position for more than 12 months as of June 29, 2019 had an aggregate amortized cost of $49.8 million and an aggregate unrealized loss of $0.1 million. The Company may sell certain of its marketable securities prior to their stated maturities for strategic reasons including, but not limited to, anticipated or actual changes in credit rating and duration management. When evaluating an investment for other-than-temporary impairment, the Company reviews factors including the length of time and extent to which fair value has been below cost basis, the financial condition of the issuer, changes in market interest rates and whether it is more likely than not the Company will be required to sell the investment before recovery of the investment’s cost basis. As of June 29, 2019, the Company did not consider any of its investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired.

The following table is a summary of available-for-sale securities at March 30, 2019 (in thousands):

໿



As of March 30, 2019	Amortized Cost		Gross Unrealized Gains		Gross Unrealized Losses			Estimated Fair Value (Net Carrying Amount)

Securities in a continuous unrealized loss position for more than 12 months as of March 30, 2019 had an aggregate amortized cost of $120.3 million and an aggregate unrealized loss of $0.6 million. The Company may sell certain of its marketable securities prior to their stated maturities for strategic reasons including, but not limited to, anticipated or actual changes in credit rating and duration management. When evaluating an investment for other-than-temporary impairment, the Company reviews factors including the length of time and extent to which fair value has been below cost basis, the financial condition of the issuer, changes in market interest rates and whether it is more likely than not the Company will be required to sell the investment before recovery of the investment’s cost basis. As of March 30, 2019, the Company did not consider any of its investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired.

4. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company has determined that the only material assets and liabilities in the Company’s financial statements that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis are the Company’s cash equivalents and marketable securities portfolio. The Company defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Company applies the following fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value into three levels and bases the categorization within the hierarchy upon the lowest level of input that is available and significant to the fair value measurement. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements).


•	Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.


•	Level 2 - Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.


•	Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

The Company’s cash equivalents and marketable securities portfolio consist of money market funds, debt securities, non-U.S. government securities, U.S. Treasury securities and securities of U.S. government-sponsored enterprises and are reflected on our consolidated condensed balance sheets under the headings cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, and long-term marketable securities. The Company determines the fair value of its marketable securities portfolio by obtaining non-binding market prices from third-party pricing providers on the last day of the quarter, whose sources may use quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1 inputs) or inputs other than quoted prices that are observable either directly or indirectly (Level 2 inputs) in determining fair value.

As of June 29, 2019 and March 30, 2019, the Company classified all investment portfolio assets as Level 1 or Level 2 assets. The Company has no material Level 3 assets. There were no transfers between Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3 measurements for the three months ending June 29, 2019.

5. Derivative Financial Instruments

Foreign Currency Forward Contracts

During the quarter ended June 29, 2019, the Company began using foreign currency forward contracts to reduce the earnings impact that exchange rate fluctuations have on non-U.S. dollar balance sheet exposures. The Company recognizes both the gains and losses on foreign currency forward contracts and the gains and losses on the remeasurement of non-U.S. dollar denominated assets and liabilities within "Other income (expense)" in the consolidated condensed statements of income. The Company does not apply hedge accounting to these foreign currency derivative instruments.

As of June 29, 2019, the Company held one foreign currency forward contract denominated in British Pound Sterling with a notional value of $59.7 million. The fair value of this contract was not material as of June 29, 2019.

The before-tax effect of derivative instruments not designated as hedging instruments was as follows (in thousands):

8. Revolving Credit Facility

On July 12, 2016, Cirrus Logic entered into an amended and restated credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent, and the Lenders party thereto, for the purpose of refinancing an existing credit facility and providing ongoing working capital. The Credit Agreement provides for a $300 million senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”). The Credit Facility matures on July 12, 2021. The Credit Facility is required to be guaranteed by all of Cirrus Logic’s material domestic subsidiaries (the “Subsidiary Guarantors”). The Credit Facility is secured by substantially all of the assets of Cirrus Logic and any Subsidiary Guarantors, except for certain excluded assets.

Borrowings under the Credit Facility may, at our election, bear interest at either (a) a base rate plus the applicable margin (“Base Rate Loans”) or (b) a LIBOR rate plus the applicable margin (“LIBOR Rate Loans”). The applicable margin ranges from 0% to 0.50% per annum for Base Rate Loans and 1.25% to 2.00% per annum for LIBOR Rate Loans based on the Leverage Ratio (as defined below). A commitment fee accrues at a rate per annum ranging from 0.20% to 0.30% (based on the Leverage Ratio) on the average daily unused portion of the commitment of the lenders. The Credit Agreement contains certain financial covenants providing that (a) the ratio of consolidated funded indebtedness to consolidated EBITDA for the prior four fiscal quarters must not be greater than 3.00 to 1.00 (the “Leverage Ratio”) and (b) the ratio of consolidated EBITDA for the prior four consecutive fiscal quarters to consolidated fixed charges (including amounts paid in cash for consolidated interest expenses, capital expenditures, scheduled principal payments of indebtedness, and income taxes) for the prior four consecutive fiscal quarters must not be less than 1.25 to 1.00 as of the end of each fiscal quarter. The Credit Agreement also contains negative covenants limiting the Company’s or any Subsidiary’s ability to, among other things, incur debt, grant liens, make investments, effect certain fundamental changes, make certain asset dispositions, and make certain restricted payments.

As of June 29, 2019, the Company had no amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility and was in compliance with all covenants under the Credit Agreement.

9. Leases

The Company has operating leases for corporate offices and certain office equipment. Our leases have remaining lease terms of 1 year to 28 years, some of which include options to extend the leases which are considered reasonably certain to be exercised. Our leases generally contain fixed rental payments, with additional variable payments linked to actual common area maintenance costs incurred by the landlord. These variable payments are therefore not included within the lease liability and ROU asset, but are recognized as an expense when incurred. As our leases typically do not provide an implicit rate, the Company determined the Incremental Borrowing Rate ("IBR") for each lease based on the information available at the commencement date, taking into consideration necessary adjustments for collateral, currency, and lease term. There are no residual value guarantees in any of our leases. No restrictions or covenants have been imposed on the Company as a result of the lease agreements in place.

The Company also leases a small portion of our office space to tenants under operating leases, receiving monthly rental payments. Payments are generally fixed, with variable payments linked to actual common area maintenance costs incurred. Total fixed lease payments to be received over the life of the lease are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

All of the Company’s leases have been classified as operating leases. Operating leases in excess of 12 months are recognized on the balance sheet, with future lease payments recognized as a liability, measured at present value, and the right-of-use asset recognized for the lease term. A single lease cost is recognized in the income statement over the lease term.

The components of operating lease expense were as follows (in thousands):



	Three Months Ended

Operating lease - in excess of 12 months	$	3,463

As of June 29, 2019, there are no leases that have not yet commenced which would create significant rights and obligations on the Company.

Future lease commitments under non-cancellable leases, including extension options reasonably anticipated to be exercised as of June 29, 2019, are as follows (in thousands):

10. Revenues

Disaggregation of revenue

We disaggregate revenue from contracts with customers based on the ship to location of the customer. The geographic regions that are reviewed are the United States and countries outside of the United States (primarily located in Asia).

Total net sales based on the disaggregation criteria described above are as follows:



	Three Months Ended
	June 29,		June 30,
	2019		2018
Non-United States	$	234,042	$	245,622
United States	4,211		8,861
	$	238,253	$	254,483

Performance obligations

The Company's single performance obligation, which is the delivery of promised goods to the customer. The promised goods are explicitly stated in the customer contract and are comprised of either a single type of good or a series of goods that are substantially the same, have the same pattern of transfer to the customer, and are neither capable of being distinct nor separable from the other promised goods in the contract. This performance obligation is satisfied upon transfer of control of the promised goods to the customer, as defined per the shipping terms within the customer's contract. The vast majority of the Company's contracts with customers have an original expected term length of one year or less. As allowed by ASC 606, the Company has not disclosed the value of any unsatisfied performance obligations related to these contracts.

The Company’s products primarily include a warranty period of one to three years. These warranties qualify as assurance-type warranties, as goods can be returned for product non-conformance and defect only. As such, these warranties are accounted for under ASC 460, Guarantees, and are not considered a separate performance obligation.

Contract balances

Payments are typically due within 30 to 60 days of invoicing and terms terms do not include a significant financing components or noncash consideration. There have been no material impairment losses on accounts receivable. There are no material contract assets or contract liabilities recorded on the consolidated condensed balance sheets.

Transaction price

The transaction price is the amount of consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring the promised goods to the customer. Fixed pricing is the consideration that is agreed upon in the customer contract. Variable pricing includes rebates, rights of return, warranties, price protection and stock rotation. Rebates are granted as a customer account credit, based on agreed-upon sales thresholds. Rights of return and warranty costs are estimated using the "most likely amount" method by reviewing historical returns to determine the most likely customer return rate and applying materiality thresholds. Price protection includes price adjustments available to certain distributors based upon established book price and a stated adjustment period. Stock rotation is also available to certain distributors based on a stated maximum of prior billings.

The Company estimates all variable consideration at the most likely amount which it expects to be entitled. The estimate is based on current and historical information available to the Company, including recent sales activity and pricing. Variable consideration is only included in the transaction price to the extent that it is probable that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is resolved. The Company defers all variable consideration that does not meet the revenue recognition criteria.

11. Income Taxes

໿

Our provision (benefit) for income taxes is based on estimated effective tax rates derived from an estimate of annual consolidated earnings (loss) before taxes, adjusted for nondeductible expenses, other permanent items and any applicable credits.

The following table presents the provision (benefit) for income taxes (in thousands) and the effective tax rates:



	Three Months Ended
	June 29,			June 30,
	2019			2018
Income (loss) before income taxes	$	6,051		$	(4,500	)
Provision (benefit) for income taxes	$	1,433		$	(228	)
Effective tax rate	23.7		%	5.1		%

Our income tax expense for the first quarter of fiscal year 2020 was $1.4 million compared to $0.2 million of income tax benefit for the first quarter of fiscal year 2019, resulting in effective tax rates of 23.7% and 5.1% for the first quarter of fiscal year 2020 and 2019, respectively. Our effective tax rate for the first quarter of fiscal year 2020 was higher than the federal statutory rate primarily due to interest accrued on unrecognized tax benefits recorded discretely in the quarter, partially offset by the effect of income earned in certain foreign jurisdictions that is taxed below the federal statutory rate. Our effective tax rate for the first quarter of fiscal year 2019 was lower than the federal statutory rate primarily due to the effect of income earned in certain foreign jurisdictions that is taxed below the federal statutory rate and the U.S. federal research and development tax credit.

The Company records unrecognized tax benefits for the estimated risk associated with tax positions taken on tax returns. At June 29, 2019, the Company had unrecognized tax benefits of $40.0 million, of which $39.8 million would impact the effective tax rate if recognized. The Company recorded a gross increase of $0.3 million to its current year unrecognized tax benefits in the first quarter of fiscal year 2020. The Company believes it is reasonably possible that the gross unrecognized tax benefits could decrease by approximately $3.0 million in the next 12 months due to the lapse of the statute of limitations applicable to tax positions taken on a prior year tax return. The Company’s total unrecognized tax benefits are classified as “Non-current income taxes" in the consolidated condensed balance sheets.

The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in the provision for income taxes. As of June 29, 2019, the balance of accrued interest and penalties, net of tax, was $3.0 million.

On July 27, 2015, the U.S. Tax Court issued an opinion in Altera Corp. et al. v. Commissioner which concluded that the regulations relating to the treatment of stock-based compensation expense in intercompany cost-sharing arrangements were invalid. In 2016 the U.S. Internal Revenue Service appealed the decision to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit (the “Ninth Circuit”). On July 24, 2018, the Ninth Circuit issued a decision that was subsequently withdrawn and a reconstituted panel has conferred on the appeal. On June 7, 2019, the Ninth Circuit reversed the decision of the U.S. Tax Court and upheld the cost-sharing regulations. The final resolution with respect to cost-sharing of stock-based compensation and the potential impact on the Company is unclear at this time. We will continue to monitor developments related to this decision and the potential impact of those developments on the Company's current and prior fiscal years.

The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal income tax as well as income tax in multiple state and foreign jurisdictions. Fiscal years 2016 through 2019 remain open to examination by the major taxing jurisdictions to which the Company is subject, although carry forward attributes that were generated in tax years prior to fiscal year 2016 may be adjusted upon examination by the tax authorities if they have been, or will be, used in a future period. The Company's United Kingdom subsidiaries are currently under audit for certain income tax matters related to fiscal years 2016 and 2017. The Company's fiscal year 2017 federal income tax return is under examination by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service. The Company believes it has accrued adequate reserves related to the matters under examination. The Company is not under an income tax audit in any other major taxing jurisdiction.

12. Net Income (Loss) Per Share

Basic net income (loss) per share is based on the weighted effect of common shares issued and outstanding and is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the basic weighted average shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares used in

the basic net income per share calculation, plus the equivalent number of common shares that would be issued assuming exercise or conversion of all potentially dilutive common shares outstanding. These potentially dilutive items consist primarily of outstanding stock options and restricted stock units.

The following table details the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the three months ended June 29, 2019 and June 30, 2018 (in thousands, except per share amounts):

໿



	Three Months Ended
	June 29,		June 30,
	2019		2018
Numerator:
Net income (loss)	$	4,618	$	(4,272	)
Denominator:
Weighted average shares outstanding	58,540		61,462
Effect of dilutive securities	1,718		—
Weighted average diluted shares	60,258		61,462
Basic earnings (loss) per share	$	0.08	$	(0.07	)
Diluted earnings (loss) per share	$	0.08	$	(0.07	)

The weighted outstanding shares excluded from our diluted calculation for the three months ended June 29, 2019, were 734 thousand, as the shares were anti-dilutive. All potential shares of common stock are anti-dilutive in periods of net loss, and therefore excluded for the three months ended June 30, 2018.

13. Legal Matters

From time to time, we are involved in legal proceedings concerning matters arising in connection with the conduct of our business activities. We regularly evaluate the status of legal proceedings in which we are involved in order to assess whether a loss is probable or there is a reasonable possibility that a loss or additional loss may have been incurred, and to determine if accruals are appropriate. We further evaluate each legal proceeding to assess whether an estimate of possible loss or range of loss can be made.

Based on current knowledge, management does not believe that there are any pending matters that could potentially have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. However, we are engaged in various legal actions in the normal course of business. There can be no assurances in light of the inherent uncertainties involved in any potential legal proceedings, some of which are beyond our control, and an adverse outcome in any legal proceeding could be material to our results of operations or cash flows for any particular reporting period.

14. Stockholders’ Equity

Common Stock

The Company issued a net 0.1 million and 0.1 million shares of common stock during the three months ending June 29, 2019 and June 30, 2018, respectively, pursuant to the Company's equity incentive plans.

Share Repurchase Program

Since inception, approximately $200 million of the Company’s common stock has been repurchased under the Company’s 2018 $200 million share repurchase program. An immaterial amount remains available for repurchase under this plan as of June 29, 2019. During the three months ended June 29, 2019, the Company repurchased 0.9 million shares of its common stock, for $40.0 million, at an average cost of $45.04 per share. All of these shares were repurchased in the open market and were funded from existing cash. All shares of our common stock that were repurchased were retired as of June 29, 2019. In January 2019, the Board of Directors authorized repurchase of up to an additional $200 million of the Company's common stock. No shares have been repurchased under the new plan as of June 29, 2019.

15. Segment Information

We determine our operating segments in accordance with FASB guidelines. Our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) has been identified as the chief operating decision maker under these guidelines.

The Company operates and tracks its results in one reportable segment, but reports revenue performance in two product lines, Portable and Non-Portable and Other. Our CEO receives and uses enterprise-wide financial information to assess financial performance and allocate resources, rather than detailed information at a product line level. Additionally, our product lines have similar characteristics and customers. They share support functions such as sales, public relations, supply chain management, various research and development and engineering support, in addition to the general and administrative functions of human resources, legal, finance and information technology. Therefore, there is no complete, discrete financial information maintained for these product lines.

Revenues from our product lines are as follows (in thousands):

Critical Accounting Policies

Our discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations are based upon the unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements included in this report, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts. We evaluate the estimates on an on-going basis. We base these estimates on historical experience and on 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 values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions.

The Company adopted ASC Topic 842, Leases as of March 31, 2019. The impact of this new guidance on our accounting policies and operating results is described below, in Note 2 - Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements as well as in Note 9 - Leases. During the three months ended June 29, 2019, there have been no other significant changes in our “Critical Accounting Policies” included in our fiscal year 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 30, 2019.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases, which the Company adopted in the first quarter of fiscal year 2020. The new standard provides a number of optional practical expedients in transition. We elected the use-of-hindsight practical expedient and the ‘package of practical expedients’ which permits us not to reassess under the new standard our prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification and initial direct costs. The new standard also provides practical expedients for an entity’s ongoing accounting. We elected the short-term lease recognition exemption for all leases that qualify. This means, for qualifying leases, which are those with terms of less than twelve months, we will not recognize ROU assets or lease liabilities. We also do not separate lease and non-lease components for all classes of assets. Most of our operating lease commitments were subject to the new standard and recognized as ROU assets and operating lease liabilities upon adoption, which materially increased the total assets and total liabilities that we report relative to such amounts prior to adoption.

On adoption, we recognized additional operating liabilities, with corresponding ROU assets based on the present value of the remaining minimum rental payments under current leasing contracts for existing operating leases. In addition, existing capitalized initial direct costs and accrued lease payments were reclassified from prepayments and accruals to the ROU asset. There was no income statement or cash flow statement impact on adoption, nor were prior periods adjusted.

The effects of the changes made to our balance sheet at adoption were as follows (in thousands):



	Balance at March 30, 2019			Impact from ASU 2016-02 Adoption			Balance at March 31, 2019

estimates, and recognized in current year earnings. This ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU, but does not expect a material impact to the financial statements upon adoption.

Results of Operations

Our fiscal year is the 52- or 53-week period ending on the last Saturday in March. Fiscal years 2020 and 2019 are both 52-week fiscal years.

The following table summarizes the results of our operations for the first three months of fiscal years 2020 and 2019, respectively, as a percentage of net sales. All percentage amounts were calculated using the underlying data in thousands, unaudited:

Net Sales

Net sales for the first quarter of fiscal year 2020 decreased $16.2 million, or 6 percent, to $238.3 million from $254.5 million in the first quarter of fiscal year 2019. Net sales from our portable products decreased $9.3 million, primarily due to lower sales of portable products shipping in smartphones, along with digital headsets and adapters, partially offset by increased amplifier sales at Android customers. Non-portable and other product sales decreased $6.9 million for the quarter versus the comparable period in the prior fiscal year.

Sales to non-U.S. customers, principally located in Asia, including sales to U.S.-based end customers that manufacture products through contract manufacturers or plants located overseas, were approximately 98 percent and 97 percent of net sales for the first quarter of fiscal years 2020 and 2019, respectively. Our sales are denominated primarily in U.S. dollars.

Since the components we produce are largely proprietary, we consider our end customer to be the entity specifying the use of our component in their design. These end customers may purchase our products directly from us, through distributors or third-party manufacturers contracted to produce their designs. For the first quarter of fiscal years 2020 and 2019, our ten largest end customers represented approximately 90 percent and 89 percent of our net sales, respectively.

We had one end customer, Apple Inc., that purchased through multiple contract manufacturers and represented approximately 72 percent and 76 percent of the Company’s total net sales for the first quarter of fiscal years 2020 and 2019, respectively. Samsung represented 10 percent of the Company's total net sales for the first quarter of fiscal year 2020.

No other end customer or distributor represented more than 10 percent of net sales for the three months ending June 29, 2019 or June 30, 2018.

For more information, please see Part II—Item 1A—Risk Factors— “We depend on a limited number of customers and distributors for a substantial portion of our sales, and the loss of, or a significant reduction in orders from, or pricing on products sold to, any key customer or distributor could significantly reduce our sales and our profitability.”

Gross Margin

Gross margin was 51.4 percent in the first quarter of fiscal year 2020, up from 48.9 percent in the first quarter of fiscal year 2019. The increase was primarily driven by lower reserve expense and favorable product mix in the current fiscal quarter versus the first quarter of fiscal year 2019.

Research and Development Expense

Research and development expense for the first quarter of fiscal year 2020 was $88.8 million, a decrease of $9.1 million, or 9 percent, from $97.9 million in the first quarter of fiscal year 2019. The primary drivers for this decrease were amortization of acquisition-related intangibles, increased R&D incentives and lower product development costs, partially offset by increased salary costs related to the transition of our development activities from Melbourne, Australia to teams in the U.S. and U.K. in an effort to improve efficiency and streamline our hardware, software and algorithm development.

Selling, General and Administrative Expense

Selling, general and administrative expense for the first quarter of fiscal year 2020 was $29.5 million, a decrease of $3.3 million, or 10 percent, from $32.8 million in the first quarter of fiscal year 2019, primarily due to decreased salary and employee-related expenses, facilities-related costs and professional fees.

Interest Income

The Company reported interest income of $2.5 million and $1.7 million, for the three months ended June 29, 2019 and June 30, 2018, respectively. Interest income increased in the current period due to higher yields on higher average cash, cash equivalent and marketable securities balances, compared to the prior period.

Interest Expense

The Company reported interest expense of $0.3 million and $0.3 million for the three months ended June 29, 2019 and June 30, 2018, respectively. Interest expense consists primarily of unused commitment fees.

Other Income (Expense)

For the three months ended June 29, 2019 and June 30, 2018, the Company reported $0.4 million in other expense and $0.2 million in other income, respectively, primarily related to remeasurement on foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities.

Income Taxes

The following table presents the provision (benefit) for income taxes (in thousands) and the effective tax rates:



	Three Months Ended
	June 29,			June 30,
	2019			2018
Income (loss) before income taxes	$	6,051		$	(4,500	)
Provision (benefit) for income taxes	$	1,433		$	(228	)
Effective tax rate	23.7		%	5.1		%

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We require cash to fund our operating expenses and working capital requirements, including outlays for inventory, capital expenditures, share repurchases, and strategic acquisitions. Our principal sources of liquidity are cash on hand, cash generated from operations, cash generated from the sale and maturity of marketable securities, and available borrowings under our $300 million senior secured revolving credit facility.

Cash generated by operating activities is net income adjusted for certain non-cash items and changes in working capital. Cash flow from operations was $57.0 million for the first three months of fiscal year 2020 as compared to $4.7 million for the corresponding period of fiscal year 2019. The cash flow from operations during the first three months of fiscal year

2020 was related to the cash components of our net income and a $20.7 million favorable change in working capital, primarily as a result of decreases in inventories and accounts receivable. The cash flow from operations during the corresponding period of fiscal year 2019 was related to the cash components of our net income, offset by a $26.5 million unfavorable change in working capital, primarily as a result of increases in accounts receivable and decreases in accounts payable, partially offset by decreases in inventories.

Net cash used in investing activities was $34.7 million during the first three months of fiscal year 2020 as compared to $12.8 million used in investing activities during the first three months of fiscal year 2019. The cash used in investing activities in the first three months of fiscal year 2020 is primarily related to capital expenditures and technology investments of $8.1 million and net purchases of marketable securities of $26.6 million. The cash used in investing activities in the corresponding period in fiscal year 2019 was primarily related to net purchases of marketable securities of $0.3 million, and capital expenditures and technology investments of $12.6 million.

Net cash used in financing activities was $40.4 million during the first three months of fiscal year 2020. The cash used during the first three months of fiscal year 2020 was primarily associated with stock repurchases of $40.0 million. The cash used in financing activities was $41.0 million for the first three months of fiscal year 2019. The use of cash during the first three months of fiscal year 2019 was primarily associated with stock repurchases during the period of $40.0 million.

Our future capital requirements will depend on many factors, including the rate of sales growth, market acceptance of our products, the timing and extent of research and development projects, potential acquisitions of companies or technologies and the expansion of our sales and marketing activities. We believe our expected future cash earnings, existing cash, cash equivalents, investment balances, and available borrowings under our Credit Facility will be sufficient to meet our capital requirements through at least the next 12 months, although we could be required, or could elect, to seek additional funding prior to that time.

Revolving Credit Facilities

As of June 29, 2019, the Company had no amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility and was in compliance with all covenants under the Credit Agreement.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to market risks associated with interest rates on our debt securities, currency movements on non-U.S. dollar denominated assets and liabilities, and the effect of market factors on the value of our marketable securities. We assess these risks on a regular basis and have established policies that are designed to protect against the adverse effects of these and other potential exposures. During the first quarter of fiscal year 2020, we began using forward contracts to manage exposure to foreign currency exchange risk attributable to non-U.S. dollar exposures. Gains and losses from these foreign currency forward contracts are recognized currently in earnings along with the gains and losses resulting from remeasuring the underlying

exposures. For further description of our market risks, see “Part II – Item 7A – Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” in our fiscal year 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Commission on May 24, 2019. For related financial statement impact see Note 5 - Derivative Financial Instruments.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

As required by Rule 13a-15(b) of the Exchange Act, we have evaluated, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer (CEO) and chief financial officer (CFO), the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Based upon the evaluation, our management, including our CEO and CFO, has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 29, 2019.

Changes in control over financial reporting

There has been no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 29, 2019, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Information regarding legal proceedings to which the Company is a party is set forth in Note 13 – Legal Matters to our unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements and is incorporated herein by reference.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

In evaluating all forward-looking statements, you should specifically consider risk factors that may cause actual results to vary from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Various risk factors associated with our business are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 30, 2019, as filed with the Commission on May 24, 2019, and available at www.sec.gov. Other than as set forth below, there have been no material changes to those risk factors previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 30, 2019.

We depend on a limited number of customers and distributors for a substantial portion of our sales, and the loss of, or a significant reduction in orders from, or pricing on products sold to, any key customer or distributor could significantly reduce our sales and our profitability.

While we generate sales from a broad base of customers worldwide, the loss of any of our key customers, or a significant reduction in sales or selling prices to any key customer, or reductions in selling prices made to retain key customer relationships, would significantly reduce our revenue, margins and earnings and adversely affect our business. For the first three months of fiscal years 2020 and 2019, our ten largest customers represented approximately 90 percent and 89 percent, respectively, of our net sales. We had one end customer, Apple Inc. that purchased through multiple contract manufacturers and represented approximately 72 percent and 76 percent of the Company’s total net sales for the first three months of fiscal years 2020 and 2019, respectively. Samsung represented 10 percent of the Company's total net sales for the first three months of fiscal year 2020.

We had no distributors that represented more than 10 percent of our sales for the three month period ending June 29, 2019, or June 30, 2018. No other end customer or distributor represented more than 10 percent of net sales for the three month period ending June 29, 2019, or June 30, 2018.

We may not be able to maintain or increase sales to certain of our key customers for a variety of reasons, including the following:


•	most of our customers can stop incorporating our products into their own products with limited notice to us and suffer little or no penalty;


•	our agreements with our customers typically do not require them to purchase a minimum quantity of our products;


•	many of our customers have pre-existing or concurrent relationships with our current or potential competitors that may affect the customers’ decisions to purchase our products;


•	our customers face intense competition from other manufacturers that do not use our products; and


•	our customers regularly evaluate alternative sources of supply in order to diversify their supplier base, which increases their negotiating leverage with us and their ability to obtain components from alternative sources.

In addition, our dependence on a limited number of key customers may make it easier for key customers to pressure us to reduce the prices of the products we sell to them. We have experienced pricing pressure from certain key customers, and we expect that the average selling prices for certain of our products will decline, reducing our revenue, our margins, and our earnings.

Our key customer relationships often require us to develop new products that may involve significant technological challenges. Our customers frequently place considerable pressure on us to meet their tight development schedules. In addition, we may from time to time enter into customer agreements providing for exclusivity periods during which we may only sell specified products or technologies to that customer. Accordingly, we may have to devote a substantial amount of resources to strategic relationships, which could detract from or delay our completion of other important development projects or the development of next generation products and technologies.

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

The following table provides information about purchases of equity securities that are registered by us pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange Act during the three months ended June 29, 2019 (in thousands, except per share amounts):



Monthly Period	Total Number of Shares Purchased	Average Price Paid Per Share		Total Number of Shares Purchased as Part of Publicly Announced Plans or Programs	Approximate Dollar Value of Shares That May Yet Be Purchased Under the Plans or Programs (1)
March 31, 2019 - April 27, 2019	—	$	—	—	$	—
April 28, 2019 - May 25, 2019	871	45.16		871	200,643
May 26, 2019 - June 29, 2019	17	38.55		17	200,003
Total	888	$	45.04	888	$	200,003

(1) The Company currently has two active share repurchase programs. The repurchases are to be funded from existing cash and intended to be effected from time to time in accordance with applicable securities laws through the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. The timing of the repurchases and the actual amount purchased depend on a variety of factors including general market and economic conditions and other corporate considerations. The program does not have an expiration date, does not obligate the Company to repurchase any particular amount of common stock, and may be modified or suspended at any time at the Company's discretion. The Company repurchased 0.9 million shares of its common stock for $40.0 million during the first quarter of fiscal year 2019 under its 2018 Plan. All of these shares were repurchased in the open market and were funded from existing cash. All shares of our common stock that were repurchased were retired as of June 29, 2019. In January 2019, the Board of Directors authorized repurchase of up to an additional $200 million of the Company's common stock. No shares have been repurchased under the new plan as of June 29, 2019.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation The consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared by Cirrus Logic, Inc. (“Cirrus Logic,” “we,” “us,” “our,” or the “Company”) pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”). The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements do not include complete footnotes and financial presentations. As a result, these financial statements should be read along with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended March 30, 2019, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Commission on May 24, 2019. In our opinion, the financial statements reflect all material adjustments, including normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, operating results and cash flows for those periods presented. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with United States (“U.S.”) generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions. Moreover, the results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire year. Additionally, certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation, with no impact to earnings.

(d)	Disclosed in this report any change in the registrant’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the registrant’s most recent fiscal quarter (the registrant’s fourth fiscal quarter in the case of an annual report) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the registrant’s internal control over financial reporting; and


(a)	All significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or operation of internal control over financial reporting which are reasonably likely to adversely affect the registrant’s ability to record, process, summarize and report financial information; and


(b)	Any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees who have a significant role in the registrant’s internal control over financial reporting.

2.	The information contained in the Report fairly presents, in all material respects, the financial condition and results of operations of the Company.

Revolving Credit Facility	3 Months Ended
Revolving Credit Facility	Jun. 29, 2019
Line of Credit Facility [Abstract]
Revolving Credit Facility	Revolving Credit Facility On July 12, 2016, Cirrus Logic entered into an amended and restated credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent, and the Lenders party thereto, for the purpose of refinancing an existing credit facility and providing ongoing working capital. The Credit Agreement provides for a $300 million senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”). The Credit Facility matures on July 12, 2021. The Credit Facility is required to be guaranteed by all of Cirrus Logic’s material domestic subsidiaries (the “Subsidiary Guarantors”). The Credit Facility is secured by substantially all of the assets of Cirrus Logic and any Subsidiary Guarantors, except for certain excluded assets. Borrowings under the Credit Facility may, at our election, bear interest at either (a) a base rate plus the applicable margin (“Base Rate Loans”) or (b) a LIBOR rate plus the applicable margin (“LIBOR Rate Loans”). The applicable margin ranges from 0% to 0.50% per annum for Base Rate Loans and 1.25% to 2.00% per annum for LIBOR Rate Loans based on the Leverage Ratio (as defined below). A commitment fee accrues at a rate per annum ranging from 0.20% to 0.30% (based on the Leverage Ratio) on the average daily unused portion of the commitment of the lenders. The Credit Agreement contains certain financial covenants providing that (a) the ratio of consolidated funded indebtedness to consolidated EBITDA for the prior four fiscal quarters must not be greater than 3.00 to 1.00 (the “Leverage Ratio”) and (b) the ratio of consolidated EBITDA for the prior four consecutive fiscal quarters to consolidated fixed charges (including amounts paid in cash for consolidated interest expenses, capital expenditures, scheduled principal payments of indebtedness, and income taxes) for the prior four consecutive fiscal quarters must not be less than 1.25 to 1.00 as of the end of each fiscal quarter. The Credit Agreement also contains negative covenants limiting the Company’s or any Subsidiary’s ability to, among other things, incur debt, grant liens, make investments, effect certain fundamental changes, make certain asset dispositions, and make certain restricted payments. As of June 29, 2019, the Company had no amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility and was in compliance with all covenants under the Credit Agreement.

Legal Matters	Jun. 29, 2019
Loss Contingency, Information about Litigation Matters [Abstract]
Legal Matters	Legal Matters From time to time, we are involved in legal proceedings concerning matters arising in connection with the conduct of our business activities. We regularly evaluate the status of legal proceedings in which we are involved in order to assess whether a loss is probable or there is a reasonable possibility that a loss or additional loss may have been incurred, and to determine if accruals are appropriate. We further evaluate each legal proceeding to assess whether an estimate of possible loss or range of loss can be made. Based on current knowledge, management does not believe that there are any pending matters that could potentially have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. However, we are engaged in various legal actions in the normal course of business. There can be no assurances in light of the inherent uncertainties involved in any potential legal proceedings, some of which are beyond our control, and an adverse outcome in any legal proceeding could be material to our results of operations or cash flows for any particular reporting period.
