CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a safe harbor for forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of ADTRAN, Inc. (“ADTRAN”, the “Company”, “we”, “our” or “us”). ADTRAN and its representatives may from time to time make written or oral forward-looking statements, including statements contained in this report, our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and other communications with our stockholders. Any statement that does not directly relate to a historical or current fact is a forward-looking statement. Generally, the words, “believe”, “expect”, “intend”, “estimate”, “anticipate”, “will”, “may”, “could” and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. We caution you that any forward-looking statements made by us or on our behalf are subject to uncertainties and other factors that could affect the accuracy of such statements. The following are some of the risks that could affect our financial performance or could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in our forward-looking statements:
|
• |
Our revenues for a particular period can be difficult to predict, and a shortfall in revenue may harm our operating results. |
|
• |
The lengthy sales and approval process required by service providers for new products could result in fluctuations in our revenue. |
|
• |
We depend heavily on sales to certain customers; the loss of any of these customers would significantly reduce our revenues and net income. |
|
• |
Our exposure to the credit risks of our customers and distributors may make it difficult to collect accounts receivable and could adversely affect our operating results, financial condition and cash flows. |
|
• |
We expect gross margins to vary over time, and our levels of product and services gross margins may not be sustainable. |
|
• |
Our dependence on a limited number of suppliers for certain raw materials and key components may prevent us from delivering our products on a timely basis, which could have a material adverse effect on customer relations and operating results. |
|
• |
General economic conditions may reduce our revenues and harm our operating results, financial condition and cash flows. |
|
• |
The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition, including possible disruptions in our supply chain, workforce and/or customer demand. |
|
• |
We compete in markets that have become increasingly competitive, which may result in reduced gross profit margins and market share. |
|
• |
Our estimates regarding future warranty obligations may change due to product failure rates, installation and shipment volumes, field service repair obligations and other rework costs incurred in correcting product failures. If our estimates change, the liability for warranty obligations may be increased or decreased, impacting future cost of goods sold. |
|
• |
Managing our inventory is complex and may include write-downs of excess or obsolete inventory. |
|
• |
The continuing growth of our international operations could expose us to additional risks, increase our costs and adversely affect our operating results, financial condition and cash flow. |
|
• |
If we are unable to integrate acquisitions successfully, it could adversely affect our operating results, financial condition and cash flow. |
|
• |
Our success depends on our ability to reduce the selling prices of succeeding generations of our products. |
|
• |
If we fail to manage our exposure to worldwide financial and securities markets successfully, our operating results and financial statements could be materially impacted. |
|
• |
We are currently in the process of implementing a new enterprise resource planning (“ERP”) software solution. If we do not effectively implement this project, or any future associated updates, our operations could be significantly disrupted. |
|
• |
Breaches of our information systems and cyber-attacks could compromise our intellectual property and cause significant damage to our business and reputation. |
|
• |
A material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting could result in a loss of investor confidence in the reliability of our financial statements, which in turn could negatively affect the price of our common stock. |
|
• |
We must continue to update and improve our products and develop new products to compete and to keep pace with improvements in communications technology. |
|
• |
Our failure or the failure of our contract manufacturers to comply with applicable environmental regulations could adversely impact our results of operations. |
|
• |
If our products do not interoperate with our customers’ networks, installations may be delayed or canceled, which could harm our business. |
|
• |
We engage in research and development activities to develop new, innovative solutions and to improve the application of developed technologies, and as a consequence we may miss certain market opportunities enjoyed by larger companies with substantially greater research and development efforts and which may focus on more leading edge development. |
|
• |
Our strategy of outsourcing a portion of our manufacturing requirements to subcontractors located in various international regions may result in us not meeting our cost, quality or performance standards. |
|
• |
Our failure to maintain rights to intellectual property used in our business could adversely affect the development, functionality and commercial value of our products. |
|
• |
Software under license from third parties for use in certain of our products may not continue to be available to us on commercially reasonable terms. |
|
• |
Our use of open source software could impose limitations on our ability to commercialize our products. |
3
|
|
• |
We may incur liabilities or become subject to litigation that may have a material effect on our business. |
|
• |
Consolidation and deterioration in the CLEC market could result in a significant decrease in our revenue. |
|
• |
If we are unable to successfully develop and maintain relationships with system integrators, service providers and enterprise value-added resellers, our revenue may be negatively affected. |
|
• |
Our operating results may fluctuate in future periods, which may adversely affect our stock price. |
|
• |
The price of our common stock has been volatile and may continue to fluctuate significantly. |
|
• |
We are subject to complex and evolving U.S. and foreign laws, regulations and standards governing the conduct of our business. Violations of these laws and regulations may harm our business, subject us to penalties and to other adverse consequences. |
|
• |
Changes in trade policy in the U.S. and other countries, specifically the U.K. and China, including the imposition of additional tariffs and the resulting consequences, may adversely impact our gross profits, gross margins, results of operations and financial condition. |
|
• |
New or revised tax regulations, changes in our effective tax rate, recognition of a valuation allowance or assessments arising from tax audits may have an adverse impact on our results. |
The foregoing list of risks is not exclusive. For a more detailed description of the risk factors associated with our business, see Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, filed with the SEC on February 26, 2021 (the “2020 Form 10-K”). We caution investors that other factors may prove to be important in the future in affecting our operating results. New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of these factors, nor can we assess the impact each factor, or a combination of factors, may have on our business.
You are further cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements because they speak only of our views as of the date that the statements were made. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of ADTRAN®, Inc. and its subsidiaries (“ADTRAN”, the “Company”, “we”, “our” or “us”) have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) applicable to interim financial information presented in Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. Accordingly, certain information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for complete financial statements are not included herein. The December 31, 2020 Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet is derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to fairly state these interim statements have been recorded and are of a normal and recurring nature. The results of operations for an interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year. The interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in ADTRAN’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, filed with the SEC on February 26, 2021.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expense during the reporting period. The more significant estimates include excess and obsolete inventory reserves, warranty reserves, customer rebates, determination and accrual of deferred revenue components of multiple element sales agreements, estimated costs to complete obligations associated with deferred and accrued revenues and network installations, estimated income tax provision and income tax contingencies, fair value of stock-based compensation, assessment of goodwill and other intangibles for impairment, estimated lives of intangible assets, estimated pension, and liability and fair value of investments, evaluation of other-than-temporary declines in the value of investments and the allowance for current expected credit losses. Actual amounts could differ significantly from these estimates.
We assessed certain accounting matters that generally require consideration of forecasted financial information in context with the information reasonably available to us and the unknown future impacts of the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) as of March 31, 2021 and through the date of this report. The accounting matters assessed included, but were not limited to, the allowance for doubtful accounts, stock-based compensation, carrying value of goodwill, intangibles and other long-lived assets, financial assets, valuation allowances for tax assets and revenue recognition. While there was not a material impact to our consolidated financial statements as of and for the quarter ended March 31, 2021 resulting from these assessments, future assessments related to the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as other factors, could result in material impacts to our consolidated financial statements in future reporting periods.
Correction of an Immaterial Misstatement
During the three months ended March 31, 2020, it was determined that certain investments held in the Company’s stock for a deferred compensation plan accounted for as a Rabbi trust were incorrectly classified as Long-term investments with the fair value of such investments incorrectly marked to market at each period end rather than classified as Treasury stock held at historical cost. This plan has been in existence since 2011. The Company corrected this misstatement as an out-of-period adjustment in the three months ended March 31, 2020 by remeasuring the investment assets to their historical cost basis through the recording of a Net investment gain of $

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
We recently adopted the following accounting standards, which had the following impacts on our consolidated financial statements:
In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2018-14, Compensation – Retirement Benefits – Defined Benefit Plans – General (Subtopic 715-20): Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans, which makes changes to and clarifies the disclosure requirements related to defined benefit pension and other postretirement plans. ASU 2018-14 requires additional disclosures related to the reasons for significant gains and losses affecting the benefit obligation and an explanation of any other significant changes in the benefit obligation or plan assets that are not otherwise apparent in other disclosures required by Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 715. ASU 2018-14 also clarifies the guidance in ASC 715 to require disclosure of the projected benefit obligation (“PBO”) and fair value of plan assets for pension plans with PBOs in excess of plan assets and the accumulated benefit obligation (“ABO”) and fair value of plan assets for pension plans with ABOs in excess of plan assets. ASU 2018-14 became effective for public business entities for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2020. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the disclosures in the condensed consolidation financial statements.
In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, which simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing various exceptions, such as the exception to the incremental approach for intra-period tax allocation when there is a loss from continuing operations and income or a gain from other items. The amendments in this update also simplify the accounting for income taxes related to income-based franchise taxes and require that an entity reflect enacted tax laws or rates in the annual effective tax rate computation in the interim period that includes the enactment date. The Company early adopted ASU 2019-12 on
