1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited financial statements, consisting of the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2013, the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes typically found in the audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K of Polycom, Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”). In the opinion of management, all adjustments (primarily consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair statement have been included.

The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2012 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2013.

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation as a result of the discontinued operations discussed in Note 3 as well as a reallocation amongst our segments of certain services costs discussed in Note 15.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Company’s significant accounting policies were described in Note 1 to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 (the “2012 Form 10-K”). With the exception of the accounting standard update discussed below, there have been no significant changes to these policies and no recent accounting pronouncements or changes in accounting pronouncements during the three months ended March 31, 2013, that are of significance or potential significance to the Company.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2013, the Financial Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an accounting standard update that requires an entity to expand the disclosure of reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”). The update requires companies to present reclassifications by component when reporting changes in AOCI balances and to report the effect of significant reclassifications on the respective line items in net income. The guidance is effective prospectively for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The Company adopted the guidance in the quarter ended March 31, 2013, and such adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

In December 2011, the FASB issued an accounting standard update that requires disclosure of the effect or potential effect of offsetting arrangements on a company’s financial position as well as enhanced disclosure of the rights of setoff associated with a company’s recognized assets and liabilities. In January 2013, the FASB issued another accounting standard update to clarify the scope of the standard issued in December 2011. The Company adopted the guidance in the quarter ended March 31, 2013, and such adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

3. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

On May 10, 2012, the Company entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Mobile Devices Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability corporation (“Mobile Devices”), pursuant to which the Company would divest its enterprise wireless voice solutions (“EWS”) business to an affiliate of Sun Capital Partners, Inc. On October 22, 2012, the Purchase Agreement was amended (the “Amended Purchase Agreement”). Per the terms of the Amended Purchase Agreement, Mobile Devices would acquire SpectraLink Corporation (“SpectraLink”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, by purchasing all of the outstanding stock and an intercompany note of SpectraLink from the Company. On December 4, 2012, the Company completed the disposition of the assets of its EWS business to Mobile Devices and received cash consideration of approximately $50.7 million, resulting in a gain on sale of the discontinued operations, net of taxes, of $35.4 million, as reflected in its consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2012. In the quarter ended March 31, 2013, the Company recorded an additional gain on sale of discontinued operations, net of taxes, of approximately $0.5 million as a result of the final net working capital adjustment in accordance with the Purchase Agreement. Additional cash consideration of up to $57.0 million is payable over the next four years subject to certain conditions, including meeting certain agreed-upon EBITDA-based milestones. Such additional cash consideration will be accounted for as a gain on sale of discontinued operations, net of taxes, when it is realized or realizable. In accordance with accounting guidance, the Company has included the results of operations of EWS in discontinued operations within the condensed consolidated statements of operations for all periods presented.

Summarized results from discontinued operations were as follows (in thousands):

There were no results from discontinued operations during the three months ended March 31, 2013, as the divestiture of the EWS business was completed in December 2012.

4. BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

On March 1, 2013 the Company completed its acquisition of certain assets of Sentri, Inc. (“Sentri”), a privately-held services company with expertise in Microsoft technologies, for approximately $8.4 million in cash. The acquisition expands the Company’s advanced services offerings with an emphasis on multi-vendor unified communications solutions that can encompass video, voice, data, and networking.

The total preliminary purchase price was allocated to the net tangible and intangible assets based upon their fair values at March 1, 2013 with the excess amount recorded as goodwill. The goodwill is primarily attributable to the expertise of former Sentri employees in Microsoft technologies and expected synergies from the combined company, and is not deductible for tax purposes. The Company has included the financial results of Sentri in its condensed consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. Pro forma results of operations of the acquisition were not material to the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

5. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE FINANCING

In 2012, the Company launched a customer financing program and entered into a financing agreement (the “Financing Agreement”) with an unrelated third party financing company. The program offers channel partners, distributors, and resellers direct or indirect financing on their purchases of the Company’s products and services. Pursuant to the terms of the Financing Agreement, the Company transfers accounts receivable from these customers, without recourse, to the financing company. In return, the Company agrees to pay the financing company a fee based on a pre-defined percentage of the transaction amount financed. If the transaction meets the applicable criteria under ASC 860 and is accounted for as a sale of financial assets, the accounts receivable are excluded from the balance sheet upon the third party financing company’s payment remittance to the Company. In certain legal jurisdictions, the arrangement fees that involve maintenance services or products bundled with maintenance at one price do not qualify as a sale of financial assets in accordance with the authoritative guidance. Accordingly, accounts receivable related to these arrangements are accounted for as a secured borrowing in accordance with ASC 860, and the Company records a liability for any cash received, while maintaining the associated accounts receivable balance until the end-customer remits payment to the third-party financing company.

In the quarter ended March 31, 2013, total transactions entered pursuant to the terms of the Financing Agreement were approximately $24.9 million, of which $22.3 million was related to the sale of the financial assets arrangement. The financing of these receivables accelerated the collection of the Company’s cash and reduced its credit exposure. The amount due from the financing company as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012 was approximately $16.8 million and 15.4 million, respectively, of which $15.2 million and $12.4 million, respectively, was related to the accounts receivable sold, and is included in “Trade receivables” in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets. Fees incurred pursuant to the Financing Agreement were approximately $0.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2013, and were recorded as a reduction to revenues. There were no such transactions in the quarter ended March 31, 2012.

6. GOODWILL AND PURCHASED INTANGIBLES

The following table presents details of the Company’s goodwill by segment during the three months ended March 31, 2013 (in thousands):

The following table presents details of the Company’s total purchased intangible assets as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012 (in thousands):

Purchased intangibles include a purchased trade name of $0.9 million with an indefinite life as the Company expects to generate cash flows related to this asset indefinitely. Consequently, this trade name is not amortized but is reviewed for impairment annually or sooner when indicators of potential impairment exist.

For the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company recorded amortization expense related to purchased intangibles of $2.5 million and $2.3 million, respectively, which is included in “Amortization of purchased intangibles” of the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Company recorded approximately $1.3 million and $1.9 million during the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, of amortization of purchased intangibles to “Cost of product revenues” in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Amortization of intangibles is not allocated to the Company’s segments.

The estimated future amortization expense of purchased intangible assets as of March 31, 2013 is as follows (in thousands):

7. RESTRUCTURING COSTS

During the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company recorded charges totaling $5.4 million and $2.9 million, respectively, related to restructuring actions that resulted from the consolidation and elimination of certain facilities as well as the elimination or relocation of engineering positions that were primarily as a result of downsizing the Company’s Burnaby, Canada location as part of restructuring plans approved by management. These actions are generally intended to consolidate operations in order to gain efficiencies and reallocate resources to more strategic growth areas of the business.

The following table summarizes the status of the Company’s restructuring reserves (in thousands):

As of March 31, 2013, the restructuring reserve is primarily comprised of facilities-related liabilities. The Company calculated the fair value of its facilities-related liabilities based on the discounted future lease payments less sublease assumptions. This fair value measurement is classified as a Level 3 measurement under ASC 820. The key assumptions used in the valuation model include discount rates, cash flow projections, and estimated sublease income. Discount rates, cash flow projections and sublease assumptions involve significant judgment, and are based on management’s estimate of current and forecasted market conditions and are very sensitive and susceptible to change.

8. BALANCE SHEET DETAILS

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market with cost computed on a first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) basis. Consideration is given to obsolescence, excessive levels, deterioration and other factors in evaluating net realizable value. Inventories consist of the following (in thousands):

Prepaid expenses and other current assets consist of the following (in thousands):

Deferred revenues consist of the following (in thousands):

Other accrued liabilities consist of the following (in thousands):

9. GUARANTEES

Warranty

The Company provides for the estimated costs of product warranties at the time revenue is recognized. The specific terms and conditions of those warranties vary depending upon the product sold. In the case of hardware manufactured by Polycom, warranties generally start from the delivery date and continue for one year. Software products generally carry a 90-day warranty from the date of shipment. The Company’s liability under warranties on software products is to provide a corrected copy of any portion of the software found not to be in substantial compliance with the agreed upon specifications. Factors that affect the Company’s warranty obligation include product failure rates, material usage and service delivery costs incurred in correcting product failures. The Company assesses the adequacy of its recorded warranty liabilities every quarter and makes adjustments to the liability if necessary.

Changes in the warranty obligation, which is included as a component of “Other accrued liabilities” on the condensed consolidated balance sheets, during the periods, are as follows (in thousands):

Deferred Services Revenue

The Company offers maintenance contracts for sale on most of its products which allow for customers to receive service and support in addition to, or subsequent to, the expiration of the contractual product warranty. The Company also provides managed services to its customers under contractual arrangements. The Company recognizes the maintenance and managed services revenue from these contracts over the life of the service contract.

Deferred services revenue of $159.4 million and $156.5 million is short-term and is included as a component of “Deferred revenue” as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, and $86.6 million and $85.3 million is long-term and is included in “Long-term deferred revenue” as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Changes in the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 are as follows (in thousands):

The cost of providing these services for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 was $36.5 million and $33.0 million, respectively.

Officer and Director Indemnifications

As permitted or required under Delaware law and to the maximum extent allowable under that law, the Company has certain obligations to indemnify its current and former officers and directors for certain events or occurrences while the officer or director is, or was serving, at the Company’s request in such capacity. The maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under these indemnification obligations is unlimited; however, the Company has a director and officer insurance policy that mitigates the Company’s exposure and enables the Company to recover a portion of any future amounts paid. As a result of the Company’s insurance policy coverage, the Company believes the estimated fair value of these indemnification obligations is minimal.

Other Indemnifications

As is customary in the Company’s industry, as provided for in local law in the U.S. and other jurisdictions, the Company’s standard contracts provide remedies to its customers, such as defense, settlement, or payment of judgment for intellectual property claims related to the use of its products. From time to time, the Company indemnifies customers against combinations of loss, expense, or liability arising from various trigger events related to the sale and the use of its products and services. In addition, from time to time the Company also provides protection to customers against claims related to undiscovered liabilities, additional product liability or environmental obligations.

10. INVESTMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS:

The Company had cash and cash equivalents of $502.9 million and $477.1 million at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash in banks, as well as highly liquid investments in money market funds, time deposits, savings accounts, commercial paper, U.S. government and agency securities, municipal securities and corporate debt securities. At March 31, 2013, the Company’s long-term investments had contractual maturities of one to two years.

In addition, the Company has short-term and long-term investments in debt securities which are summarized as follows (in thousands):

As of March 31, 2013, the Company’s total cash and cash equivalents and investments held in the United States totaled $281.7 million with the remaining $446.7 million held by various foreign subsidiaries outside of the United States.

U.S. Government Securities

The Company’s U.S. government securities are mostly comprised of direct U.S. Treasury obligations that are guaranteed by the U.S. government. To ensure that the investment portfolio is sufficiently diversified, the Company’s investment policy requires that a certain percentage of the Company’s portfolio be invested in these types of securities.

U.S. Government Agency Securities

The Company’s U.S. government agency securities are mostly comprised of U.S. government agency instruments, including mortgage-backed securities. To ensure that the investment portfolio is sufficiently diversified, the Company’s investment policy requires that a certain percentage of the Company’s portfolio be invested in these types of securities.

Non-U.S. Government Securities

The Company’s Non-U.S. government securities are mostly comprised of non-U.S. government instruments, including state, municipal and foreign government securities. To ensure that the investment portfolio is sufficiently diversified, the Company’s investment policy allows a certain percentage of the Company’s portfolio be invested in these types of securities.

Corporate Debt Securities

The Company’s corporate debt securities are comprised of publicly-traded domestic and foreign corporate debt securities. The Company does not purchase auction rate securities, and cash investments are in instruments that meet high quality credit rating standards, as specified in its investment policy guidelines. These guidelines also limit the amount of credit exposure to any one issuer or type of instrument.

Unrealized Losses

The following table summarizes the fair value and gross unrealized losses of the Company’s investments, including those that are categorized as cash equivalents, with unrealized losses aggregated by type of investment instrument and length of time that individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012 (in thousands):

The Company reviews the individual securities in its portfolio to determine whether a decline in a security’s fair value below the amortized cost basis is other-than-temporary. If the decline in fair value is considered to be other-than-temporary, the cost basis of the individual security is written down to its fair value as a new cost basis and the amount of the write-down is accounted for as a realized loss and included in earnings or other comprehensive income. During the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company determined that there were no investments in its portfolio that were other-than temporarily impaired.

Private Company Investments

For strategic reasons the Company has made various investments in private companies. The private company investments are carried at cost and written down to their estimated net realizable value when indications exist that these investments have been impaired. The Company did not record such impairment charges during the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012. The cost of these investments at both March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012 was $2.0 million, and is recorded in “Other assets” in the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As the basis for considering such assumptions, a three-tier value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows: (Level 1) observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; (Level 2) inputs other than the quoted prices in active markets that are observable either directly or indirectly; and (Level 3) unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the Company to develop its own assumptions. This hierarchy requires the Company to use observable market data, when available, and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs when determining fair value. On a recurring basis, the Company measures certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value, including its marketable securities and foreign currency contracts.

The Company’s cash and investment instruments are classified within Level 1 or Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy because they are valued using inputs such as quoted market prices, broker or dealer quotations, or alternative pricing sources with reasonable levels of price transparency. The types of instruments valued based on quoted market prices for identical assets in active markets include money market funds and are generally classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

The types of instruments valued based on other observable inputs include U.S. Treasury securities and other government agencies, corporate bonds and commercial paper. Such instruments are generally classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Level 2 instruments are priced using quoted market prices for similar instruments or nonbinding market prices that are corroborated by observable market data. There have been no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 during the three months ended March 31, 2013. The Company does not hold any investments classified as Level 3 as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012.

As of March 31, 2013, the Company’s fixed income available-for-sale securities include U.S. Treasury obligations and other government agency instruments (54%), corporate bonds (27%), commercial paper (16%), non-U.S. Government securities (2%), and money market funds (1%). Included in available-for-sale securities is approximately $32.0 million of cash equivalents, which consist of investments with original maturities of three months or less and include money market funds.

The principal market where the Company executes its foreign currency contracts is the retail market in an over-the-counter environment with a relatively high level of price transparency. The market participants and the Company’s counterparties are large money center banks and regional banks. The Company’s foreign currency contracts valuation inputs are based on quoted prices and quoted pricing intervals from public data sources such as spot rates, interest rate differentials and credit default rates, which do not involve management judgment. These contracts are typically classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of the Company’s marketable securities and foreign currency contracts was determined using the following inputs at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012 (in thousands):

The Company’s current accounting policy and practice is not to offset derivative assets and liabilities in its condensed consolidated balance sheets. See Note 11 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

11. FOREIGN CURRENCY DERIVATIVES

The Company maintains a foreign currency risk management program that is designed to reduce the volatility of the Company’s economic value from the effects of unanticipated currency fluctuations. International operations generate both revenues and costs denominated in foreign currencies. The Company’s policy is to hedge significant foreign currency revenues and costs to improve margin visibility and reduce earnings volatility associated with unexpected changes in currency.

Non-Designated Hedges

The Company hedges its net foreign currency monetary assets and liabilities primarily resulting from foreign currency denominated revenues and expenses with foreign exchange forward contracts to reduce the risk that the Company’s earnings and cash flows will be adversely affected by changes in foreign currency exchange rates. These derivative instruments are carried at fair value with changes in the fair value recorded as interest and other income (expense), net. These derivative instruments do not subject the Company to material balance sheet risk due to exchange rate movements because gains and losses on these derivatives are intended to offset remeasurement gains and losses on the hedged assets and liabilities. The Company executes non-designated foreign exchange forward contracts primarily denominated in Euros, British Pounds, Israeli Shekels, Brazilian Reais, Japanese Yen and Mexican Pesos.

The following table summarizes the Company’s notional position by currency, and approximate U.S. dollar equivalent, at March 31, 2013 of the outstanding non-designated hedges (foreign currency and dollar amounts in thousands):

The following table shows the effect of the Company’s non-designated hedges in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 (in thousands):

Cash Flow Hedges

The Company’s foreign exchange risk management program objective is to reduce volatility in the Company’s economic value from unanticipated foreign currency fluctuations. The Company designates forward contracts as cash flow hedges of foreign currency revenues and expenses, primarily the Euro, British Pound and Israeli Shekel. All foreign exchange contracts are carried at fair value on the condensed consolidated balance sheets and the maximum duration of foreign exchange forward contracts does not exceed thirteen months. Speculation is prohibited by policy.

To receive hedge accounting treatment under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, all cash flow hedging relationships are formally designated at hedge inception, and tested both prospectively and retrospectively to ensure the forward contracts are highly effective in offsetting changes to future cash flows on the hedged transactions. The Company records effective spot to spot changes in these cash flow hedges in cumulative other comprehensive income until they are reclassified to revenue, cost of revenue or operating expenses together with the hedged transaction. The time value on forward contracts is excluded from effectiveness testing and recorded to interest and other income (expense), net over the life of the contract together with any ineffective portion of the hedge.

The following tables show the effect of the Company’s derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 (in thousands):
