The condensed consolidated financial statements as of
October 3, 2009 and for the three and nine months ended
October 3, 2009 and September 27, 2008, include, in
the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal
recurring adjustments and reclassifications) necessary to
present fairly the Companys consolidated financial
position, results of operations and cash flows for all periods
presented.
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included
in financial statements prepared in accordance with
U.S. generally accepted accounting principles
(U.S. GAAP) have been condensed or omitted.
These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read
in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and
notes thereto included in the Companys
Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 2008. The results of
operations for the three and nine months ended October 3,
2009 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to
be expected for the full year. Certain amounts in prior period
financial statements and related notes have been reclassified to
conform to the 2009 presentation.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
U.S. GAAP requires management to make certain 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 reporting periods. Actual
results could differ from those estimates. The Company has
evaluated subsequent events after October 3, 2009, through
the date and time the financial statements were issued on
November 3, 2009.
In October 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
(FASB) issued new authoritative guidance related to
the recognition of revenue for certain multiple deliverable
arrangements. Under the new guidance, revenue will be allocated
to the different elements in an arrangement based on relative
sales price. The new guidance, which is expected to result in
more multiple-deliverable arrangements being separable than
under current guidance, will be effective for the Company
prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or
materially modified on or after January 1, 2011. In October
2009, the FASB issued new authoritative guidance which alters
the scope of revenue recognition guidance for software
deliverables to exclude items sold that include hardware with
software that is essential to its functionality. The new
guidance will be effective for the Company prospectively for
revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified on or
after January 1, 2011. Early adoption of both standards is
permitted. The Company is still assessing the potential impact
of adopting this new guidance.
In June 2009, the FASB issued authoritative guidance amending
the accounting for transfers of financial assets. Key provisions
of this amended guidance include (i) the removal of the
concept of qualifying special purpose entities, (ii) the
introduction of the concept of a participating interest, in
circumstances in which a portion of a financial asset has been
transferred, and (iii) the requirement that to qualify for
sale accounting the transferor must evaluate whether it
maintains effective control over transferred financial assets
either directly or indirectly. Additionally, this guidance
requires enhanced disclosures about transfers of financial
assets and a transferors continuing involvement. This new
guidance will be effective for the Company beginning
January 1, 2010. The Company is still assessing the
potential impact of adopting this new guidance.
In June 2009, the FASB issued authoritative guidance to amend
the manner in which entities evaluate whether consolidation is
required for variable interest entities (VIEs). The model for
determining which enterprise has a controlling financial
interest and is the primary beneficiary of a VIE has changed
significantly under the new guidance. Previously, variable
interest holders had to determine whether they had a controlling
financial interest in a VIE based on a quantitative analysis of
the expected gains
and/or
losses of the entity. In contrast, the new guidance requires an
enterprise with a variable interest in a VIE to qualitatively
assess whether it has a controlling financial interest in the
entity and, if so, whether it is the primary beneficiary.
Furthermore, this guidance requires that companies continually
evaluate VIEs for consolidation, rather than assessing VIEs
based only upon the occurrence of triggering events. This
revised guidance also requires enhanced disclosures about how a
companys involvement with a VIE affects its financial
statements and exposure to risks. This new guidance will be
effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2010. The
Company is still assessing the potential impact of adopting this
new guidance.

Discontinued
Operations
|
During the nine months ended October 3, 2009, the Company
completed the sales of: (i) Good Technology, and
(ii) the biometrics business, which included its Printrak
trademark. Collectively, the Company received $163 million
in net cash and recorded a net gain on sale of the businesses of
$175 million before income taxes, which is included in
Earnings from discontinued operations, net of tax, in the
Companys condensed consolidated statements of operations.
The operating results of these businesses (each of which was
formerly included as part of the Enterprise Mobility Solutions
segment) through the date of their respective dispositions are
reported as discontinued operations in the condensed
consolidated financial statements for the period ending
October 3, 2009. For all other applicable prior periods,
the operating results of these businesses have not been
reclassified as discontinued operations, since the results are
not material to the Companys condensed consolidated
financial statements.
The following table displays summarized activity in the
Companys condensed consolidated statements of operations
for discontinued operations during the nine months ended
October 3, 2009, all of which occurred during the three
months ended April 4, 2009. The Company had no such
activity during the three and nine months ended
September 27, 2008.

During the three months ended December 31, 2007,
concurrently with the issuance of debt, the Company entered into
several interest rate swaps to convert the fixed rate interest
cost of the debt to a floating rate. At the time of entering
into these interest rate swaps, the swaps were designated as
fair value hedges and qualified for hedge accounting treatment.
The swaps were originally designated as fair value hedges of the
underlying debt, including the Companys credit spread.
During the three months ended March 29, 2008, the swaps
were no longer considered effective hedges because of the
volatility in the price of the Companys fixed-rate
domestic term debt and the swaps were dedesignated. In the same
period, the Company was able to redesignate the same interest
rate swaps as fair value hedges of the underlying debt,
exclusive of the Companys credit spread. For the period of
time that the swaps were deemed ineffective hedges, the Company
recognized a gain of $24 million, representing the increase
in the fair value of the swaps, which was included in Other
income for the period.

For the nine months ended October 3, 2009 and the three and
nine months ended September 27, 2008, the Company was in a
net loss position and, accordingly, the basic and diluted
weighted average shares outstanding are equal because any
increase to the basic shares would be antidilutive. In the
computation of diluted earnings per common share from both
continuing operations and on a net earnings basis for the three
months ended October 3, 2009, 159.7 million stock
options were excluded because their inclusion would have been
antidilutive. In the computation of diluted loss per common
share from both continuing operations and on a net loss basis
for the nine months ended October 3, 2009 and the three and
nine months ended September 27, 2008, the assumed exercise
of 184.2 million, 225.6 million and 216.1 million
stock options, respectively, were excluded because their
inclusion would have been antidilutive.

The fair market value of investments in the Sigma Fund was
$4.1 billion and $4.2 billion at October 3, 2009
and December 31, 2008, respectively.
During the three months ended October 3, 2009, the Company
recorded a loss from the Sigma Fund investments of
$8 million in Other income (expense) in the condensed
consolidated statement of operations. During the nine months
ended October 3, 2009, the Company recorded gains from the
Sigma Fund investments of $67 million in Other income
(expense) in the condensed consolidated statement of operations.
During the fourth quarter of 2008, the Company changed its
accounting for changes in the fair value of investments in the
Sigma Fund. Prior to the fourth quarter of 2008, the Company
distinguished between declines it considered temporary and
declines it considered permanent. When it became probable that
the Company would not collect all
8
amounts it was owed on a security according to its contractual
terms, the Company considered the security to be impaired and
recorded the permanent decline in fair value in earnings. During
the three and nine month periods ended September 27, 2008,
the Company recorded $141 and $145 million of permanent
impairments of Sigma Fund investments in the condensed
consolidated statement of operations, respectively. Declines in
fair value of a security that the Company considered temporary
were recorded as a component of stockholders equity.
Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2008, the Company began
recording all changes in the fair value of investments in the
Sigma Fund in the condensed consolidated statements of
operations. In its stand-alone financial statements, the Sigma
Fund uses investment company accounting practices
and records all changes in the fair value of the underlying
investments in earnings, whether such changes are considered
temporary or permanent. The Company determined the underlying
accounting practices of the Sigma Fund in its stand-alone
financial statements should be retained in the Companys
consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, the Company
recorded the cumulative loss of $101 million on investments
in the Sigma Fund investments in its consolidated statement of
operations during the fourth quarter of 2008. The Company
determined amounts that arose in periods prior to the fourth
quarter of 2008 were not material to the consolidated results of
operations in those periods.

At October 3, 2009 and December 31, 2008, the Company
had $15 million and $225 million, respectively, in
short-term investments (which are highly-liquid fixed-income
investments with an original maturity greater than three months
but less than one year).
During the three and nine months ended October 3, 2009, the
Company recorded investment impairment charges of $31 million
and $64 million, respectively, representing
other-than-temporary
declines in the value of the Companys investment
portfolio, primarily related to other securities recorded at
cost. During the three and nine months ended September 27,
2008, the Company recorded investment impairment charges of
$9 million and $143 million, respectively,
9
of which $83 million of charges were attributed to an
equity security held by the Company as a strategic investment.
Investment impairment charges are included in Other within Other
income (expense) in the Companys condensed consolidated
statements of operations.

Equity Information
Share
Repurchase Program
During the three and nine months ended October 3, 2009, the
Company did not repurchase any of its common shares. During the
nine months ended September 27, 2008, the Company
repurchased 9 million of its common shares at an aggregate
cost of $138 million, all of which were repurchased during
the three months ended March 29, 2008.
Since the inception of its share repurchase program in May 2005,
the Company has repurchased a total of 394 million common
shares for an aggregate cost of $7.9 billion. All
repurchased shares have been retired. The authorization by the
Board of Directors to repurchase the Companys common stock
expired in June 2009 and was not renewed.
Payment
of Dividends
During the nine months ended October 3, 2009, the Company
paid $114 million in cash dividends to holders of its
common stock, all of which was paid during the three months
ended April 4, 2009, related to the payment of a dividend
declared in November 2008. In February 2009, the Company
announced that its Board of Directors suspended the
11
declaration of quarterly dividends on the Companys common
stock. The Company paid no cash dividends during the three
months ended July 4, 2009 and October 3, 2009.
Par Value
Change
On May 4, 2009, Motorola stockholders approved a change in
the par value of Motorola common stock from $3.00 per share to
$.01 per share. The change did not have an impact on the amount
of the Companys Total stockholders equity, but it
did result in a reclassification of $6.9 billion between
Common stock and Additional paid-in capital.

Long-Term
Debt
During the nine months ended October 3, 2009, the Company
completed the open market purchase of $199 million of its
outstanding long-term debt for an aggregate purchase price of
$133 million, including $4 million of accrued
interest, all of which occurred during the three months ended
April 4, 2009. The $199 million of long-term debt
repurchased included principal amounts of:
(i) $11 million of the $400 million outstanding
of the 7.50% Debentures due 2025,
(ii) $20 million of the $309 million outstanding
of the 6.50% Debentures due 2025,
(iii) $14 million of the $299 million outstanding
of the 6.50% Debentures due 2028, and
(iv) $154 million of the $600 million outstanding
of the 6.625% Senior Notes due 2037. The Company recognized
a gain of approximately $67 million related to these open
market purchases in Other within Other income (expense) in the
condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Credit
Facilities
In June 2009, the Company elected to amend its domestic
syndicated revolving credit facility (as amended from time to
time, the Credit Facility) that is scheduled to
mature in December 2011. As part of the amendment, the Company
reduced the size of the Credit Facility to the lesser of:
(1) $1.5 billion, or (2) an amount determined
based on eligible domestic accounts receivable and inventory. If
the Company elects to borrow under the Credit Facility, it would
be required to pledge its domestic accounts receivables and, at
its option, domestic inventory. As amended, the Credit Facility
does not require the Company to meet any financial covenants
unless remaining availability under the Credit Facility is less
than $225 million. In addition, until borrowings are made
under the Credit Facility, the Company is able to use its
working capital assets in any capacity in conjunction with other
capital market funding alternatives that may be available to the
Company. As of and during the nine months ended October 3,
2009, there were no outstanding borrowings under this Credit
Facility.
Derivative
Financial Instruments
Foreign
Currency Risk
The Company uses financial instruments to reduce its overall
exposure to the effects of currency fluctuations on cash flows.
Company policy prohibits speculation in financial instruments
for profit on the exchange rate price fluctuation, trading in
currencies for which there are no underlying exposures, or
entering into transactions for any currency to intentionally
increase the underlying exposure. Instruments that are
designated as part of a hedging relationship must be effective
at reducing the risk associated with the exposure being hedged
and designated as part of a hedging relationship at the
inception of the contract. Accordingly, changes in market values
of hedge instruments must be highly correlated with changes in
market values of underlying hedged items both at the inception
of the hedge and over the life of the hedge contract.
The Companys strategy related to foreign exchange exposure
management is to offset the gains or losses on the financial
instruments against losses or gains on the underlying
operational cash flows or investments based on the operating
business units assessment of risk. The Company enters into
derivative contracts for some of the Companys
non-functional currency receivables and payables, which are
primarily denominated in major currencies that can be traded on
open markets. The Company typically uses forward contracts and
options to hedge these currency exposures. In addition, the
Company enters into derivative contracts for some firm
commitments and some forecasted transactions, which are
designated as part of a hedging relationship if it is determined
that the transaction qualifies for hedge accounting under the
FASBs guidance on derivatives and hedging activities. A
portion of the Companys exposure is from currencies that
are not traded in liquid markets and these are addressed, to the
extent reasonably possible, by managing net asset positions,
product pricing and component sourcing.
At October 3, 2009 and December 31, 2008, the Company
had outstanding foreign exchange contracts totaling
$1.8 billion and $2.2 billion, respectively.
Management believes that these financial instruments should not
subject the
12
Company to undue risk due to foreign exchange movements because
gains and losses on these contracts should generally offset
losses and gains on the underlying assets, liabilities and
transactions, except for the ineffective portion of the
instruments, which are charged to Other within Other income
(expense) in the Companys condensed consolidated
statements of operations.
The following table shows the five largest net notional amounts

October 3, 2009 and the corresponding positions as of

Interest
Rate Risk
At October 3, 2009, the Companys short-term debt
consisted primarily of $20 million of short-term variable
rate foreign debt. At October 3, 2009, the Company has
$3.9 billion of long-term debt, including the current
portion of long-term debt, which is primarily priced at
long-term, fixed interest rates.
As part of its domestic liability management program, the
Company historically entered into interest rate swaps
(Hedging Agreements) to synthetically modify the
characteristics of interest rate payments for certain of its
outstanding long-term debt from fixed-rate payments to
short-term variable rate payments. During the fourth quarter of
2008, the Company terminated all of its Hedging Agreements. The
termination of the Hedging Agreements resulted in cash proceeds
of approximately $158 million and a net gain of
approximately $173 million, which was deferred and is being
recognized as a reduction of interest expense over the remaining
term of the associated debt.
Additionally, one of the Companys European subsidiaries
has outstanding interest rate agreements (Interest
Agreements) relating to a Euro-denominated loan. The
interest on the Euro-denominated loan is variable. The Interest
Agreements change the characteristics of interest rate payments
from variable to maximum fixed-rate payments. The Interest
Agreements are not accounted for as a part of a hedging
relationship and, accordingly, the changes in the fair value of
the Interest Agreements are included in Other income (expense)
in the Companys condensed consolidated statements of
operations. During the second quarter of 2009, the
Companys European subsidiary terminated a portion of the
Interest Agreements to ensure that the notional amount of the
Interest Agreements matched the amount outstanding under the
Euro-denominated loan. The termination of the Interest
Agreements resulted in an expense of approximately
$2 million. The weighted average fixed rate payments on
these Interest Agreements was 5.36%. The fair value of the
Interest Agreements at October 3, 2009 and
December 31, 2008 were $(4) million and
$(2) million, respectively.
Counterparty
Risk
The use of derivative financial instruments exposes the Company
to counterparty credit risk in the event of nonperformance by
counterparties. However, the Companys risk is limited to
the fair value of the instruments when the derivative is in an
asset position. The Company actively monitors its exposure to
credit risk. At present time, all of the counterparties have
investment grade credit ratings. The Company is not exposed to
material credit risk with any single counterparty. As of
October 3, 2009, the Company was exposed to an aggregate
credit risk of $4 million with all counterparties.

Fair
Value of Financial Instruments
The Companys financial instruments include cash
equivalents, Sigma Fund investments, short-term investments,
accounts receivable, long-term receivables, accounts payable,
accrued liabilities, derivatives and other financing
commitments. The Companys Sigma Fund,
available-for-sale
investment portfolios and derivatives are recorded in the
Companys consolidated balance sheets at fair value. All
other financial instruments, with the exception of long-term
debt, are carried at cost, which is not materially different
than the instruments fair values.
Using quoted market prices and market interest rates, the
Company determined that the fair value of long-term debt at
October 3, 2009 was $3.6 billion, compared to a face
value of $3.9 billion. Since considerable judgment is
required in interpreting market information, the fair value of
the long-term debt is not necessarily indicative of the amount
which could be realized in a current market exchange.

The Company evaluates its deferred income taxes on a quarterly
basis to determine if valuation allowances are required by
considering available evidence, including historical and
projected taxable income and tax planning strategies that are
both prudent and feasible. As of December 31, 2008, the
Companys U.S. operations had generated two
consecutive years of pre-tax losses, which are attributable to
the Mobile Devices segment. During 2007 and 2008, the Home and
Networks Mobility and Enterprise Mobility Solution businesses
(collectively referred to as the Broadband Mobility
Solutions businesses) were profitable in the U.S. and
worldwide. Because of the 2007 and 2008 losses at Mobile Devices
and the near-term forecasts for the Mobile Devices business, the
Company believes that the weight of negative historic evidence
precludes it from considering any forecasted income from the
Mobile Devices business in its analysis of the recoverability of
deferred tax assets. However, based on the sustained profits of
the Broadband Mobility Solutions businesses, the Company
believes that the weight of positive historic evidence allows it
to include forecasted income from the Broadband Mobility
Solutions businesses in its analysis of the recoverability of
its deferred tax assets. In its analysis, the Company also
considered tax planning strategies that are prudent and can be
reasonably implemented. Based on all available positive and
negative evidence, we concluded that a partial valuation
allowance should be recorded against the net deferred tax assets
of our U.S. operations. During the year ended
December 31, 2008, the Company recorded a valuation
allowance of $2.1 billion for foreign tax credits, general
business credits, capital losses and state tax carry forwards
that are more likely than not to expire. The Company also
recorded valuation allowances of $126 million in 2008
relating to tax carryforwards and deferred tax assets of
non-U.S. subsidiaries,
including Brazil, China and Spain, that the Company believes are
more likely than not to expire or go unused.
During the nine months ended October 3, 2009, the Company
recorded additional U.S. valuation allowances of
approximately $108 million, consisting of a
$150 million increase during the first quarter of 2009,
primarily relating to deferred tax assets generated on the
disposition of a subsidiary, offset by a reduction of
approximately $42 million, of which $40 million was
recorded in the second quarter of 2009 and $2 million in
the third quarter of 2009, to reflect expected cash refunds of
certain general business credits that the Company claimed on its
2008 tax return and expects to claim on its 2009 tax return. As
a result of the 2008 claim, the Company received a
$22 million tax refund during the third quarter of 2009.
Additionally, the Company increased the valuation allowance on
non-U.S. subsidiaries
by $53 million during the nine months ended October 3,
2009, all of which was recorded during the three months ended
July 4, 2009.
The Company had unrecognized tax benefits of $506 million
and $914 million, at October 3, 2009 and
December 31, 2008, respectively, of which approximately
$180 million and $580 million, respectively, if
recognized, would affect the effective tax rate, net of
resulting changes to valuation allowances. During the second
quarter of 2009, the Company concluded its Internal Revenue
Service (IRS) audits for tax years
1996-2003.
As a result of the foregoing and resolution of
Non-U.S. audits,
the Company reduced its unrecognized tax benefits by
$463 million, of which $31 million was recognized as a
tax benefit and the remainder primarily reduced tax carry
forwards and other deferred tax assets. During the third quarter
of 2009, the Company received a $126 million tax refund and
$62 million interest refund primarily related to tax credit
carryback claims which were held pending the final resolution of
the
1996-2003
audit cycle.
The Company has audits pending in several tax jurisdictions.
Although the final resolution of the Companys global tax
disputes is uncertain, based on current information, in the
opinion of the Companys management, the ultimate
disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse
effect on the Companys consolidated financial position,
liquidity or results of operations. However, an unfavorable
resolution of the Companys global tax disputes could have
a material adverse effect on the Companys consolidated
financial position, liquidity or results of operations in the
periods in which the matters are ultimately resolved.
Based on the potential outcome of the Companys global tax
examinations, the expiration of the statute of limitations for
specific jurisdictions, or the continued ability to satisfy tax
incentive obligations, it is reasonably possible that the
unrecognized tax benefits will decrease within the next
12 months. The associated net tax benefits, which would
favorably impact the effective tax rate, exclusive of valuation
allowance changes, are estimated to be in the range of $0 to
$175 million, with cash payments not expected to exceed
$175 million.

The Company made no contributions to its postretirement
healthcare fund during the three and nine months ended
October 3, 2009. During the three months ended
October 3, 2009, the Company altered the target asset mix
for its postretirement plan reducing the target investments in
equity securities from 75% to 65% and increasing the target
proportion of fixed income securities from 24% to 34%.
The Company maintains a number of endorsement split-dollar life
insurance policies on now-retired officers under a plan that was
frozen prior to December 31, 2004. The Company had
purchased the life insurance policies to insure the lives of
employees and then entered into a separate agreement with the
employees that split the policy benefits between the Company and
the employee. Motorola owns the policies, controls all rights of
ownership, and may terminate the insurance policies. To effect
the split-dollar arrangement, Motorola endorsed a portion of the
death benefits to the employee and upon the death of the
employee, the employees beneficiary typically receives the
designated portion of the death benefits directly from the
insurance company and the Company receives the remainder of the
death benefits. During the three and nine months ended
October 3, 2009, the Company recorded $1 million and
$4 million, respectively, in expenses related to this plan.

For the nine months ended October 3, 2009 the Company has
granted 36.4 million RSUs, net of forfeitures, and
17.5 million stock options (excluding the second quarter
option exchange described below). The total compensation expense
related to the RSUs is $176 million, net of forfeitures.
The total compensation expense related to the stock options is
$45 million, net of estimated forfeitures. The expense for
RSUs will be recognized over a weighted average vesting period
of four years and the expense for stock options will be
recognized over a weighted average vesting period of three years.
Stock
Option Exchange
On May 14, 2009, the Company initiated a tender offer for
certain eligible employees (excluding executive officers and
directors) to exchange certain out-of-the-money options for new
options with an exercise price equal to the fair market value of
the Companys stock as of the grant date. In order to be
eligible for the exchange, the options had to have been granted
prior to June 1, 2007, expire after December 31, 2009
and have an exercise price equal to or greater than $12.00. The
offering period closed on June 12, 2009. On that date,
97 million options were tendered and exchanged for
43 million new options with an exercise price of $6.73 and
a ratable annual vesting period over two years. The exchange
program was designed so that the fair market value of the new
options would approximate the fair market value of the options
exchanged. The resulting incremental compensation expense was
not material to the Companys consolidated financial
statements.

Fair
Value Measurements
|
The Company records certain financial assets and liabilities at
fair value on a recurring basis. The Company determines fair
value based on the price it would receive to sell an asset or
pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between
market participants at the measurement date and in the principal
or most advantageous market for that asset or liability. The
Company has no non-financial assets and liabilities that are
required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of
October 3, 2009.
17
The Company holds certain fixed income securities, equity
securities and derivatives, which must be measured using the
FASBs guidance for fair value hierarchy and related
valuation methodologies. The guidance specifies a hierarchy of
valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to each
measurement are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs
reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while
unobservable inputs reflect the Companys assumptions about
current market conditions. The prescribed fair value hierarchy
and related valuation methodologies are as follows:
Level 1
Quoted prices for identical instruments
in active markets.
Level 2
Quoted prices for similar instruments
in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar
instruments in markets that are not active and model-derived
valuations, in which all significant inputs are observable in
active markets.
Level 3
Valuations derived from valuation
techniques, in which one or more significant inputs are
unobservable.
The levels of the Companys financial assets and
liabilities that are carried at fair value were as follows:

Valuation
Methodologies
Quoted market prices in active markets are available for
investments in common stock and equivalents and, as such, these
investments are classified within Level 1.
The securities classified above as Level 2 are primarily
those that are professionally managed within the Sigma Fund. The
Company primarily relies on valuation pricing models and broker
quotes to determine the fair value of investments in the Sigma
Fund. The valuation models are developed and maintained by
third-party pricing services and use a number of standard inputs
to the valuation model including benchmark yields, reported
trades, broker/dealer quotes where the party is standing ready
and able to transact, issuer spreads, benchmark securities,
bids, offers and other reference data. The valuation model may
prioritize these inputs differently at each balance sheet date
for any given security, based on market conditions. Not all of
the standard inputs listed will be used each time in the
valuation models. For each asset class,
18
quantifiable inputs related to perceived market movements and
sector news may be considered in addition to the standard inputs.
In determining the fair value of the Companys interest
rate swap derivatives, the Company uses the present value of
expected cash flows based on market observable interest rate
yield curves commensurate with the term of each instrument and
the credit default swap market to reflect the credit risk of
either the Company or the counterparty. For foreign currency
derivatives, the Companys approach is to use forward
contract and option valuation models employing market observable
inputs, such as spot currency rates, time value and option
volatilities. Since the Company primarily uses observable inputs
in its valuation of its derivative assets and liabilities, they
are considered Level 2.
Level 3 fixed income securities are debt securities that do
not have actively traded quotes on the date the Company presents
its condensed consolidated balance sheets and require the use of
unobservable inputs, such as indicative quotes from dealers and
qualitative input from investment advisors, to value these
securities.
At October 3, 2009, the Company has $537 million of
investments in money market mutual funds classified as Cash and
cash equivalents in its condensed consolidated balance sheets.
The money market funds have quoted market prices that are
generally equivalent to par.

The current portion of long-term receivables is included in
Accounts receivable and the non-current portion of long-term
receivables is included in Other assets in the Companys
condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Certain purchasers of the Companys infrastructure
equipment may request that the Company provide long-term
financing (defined as financing with terms greater than one
year) in connection with the sale of equipment. These requests
may include all or a portion of the purchase price of the
equipment. However, the Companys obligation to provide
long-term financing is often conditioned on the issuance of a
letter of credit in favor of the Company by a reputable bank to
support the purchasers credit or a pre-existing commitment
from a reputable bank to purchase the long-term receivables from
the Company. The Company had outstanding commitments to provide
long-term financing to third parties totaling $463 million
and $370 million at October 3, 2009 and
December 31, 2008, respectively. Of these amounts,
$14 million and $266 million were supported by letters
of credit or by bank commitments to purchase long-term
receivables at October 3, 2009 and December 31, 2008,
respectively.
In addition to providing direct financing to certain equipment
customers, the Company also assists customers in obtaining
financing directly from banks and other sources to fund
equipment purchases. The Company had committed to provide
financial guarantees relating to customer financing totaling
$29 million and $43 million at October 3, 2009
and December 31, 2008, respectively (including
$25 million and $23 million at October 3, 2009
and December 31, 2008, respectively, relating to the sale
of short-term receivables). Customer financing guarantees
outstanding were $3 million and $6 million at
October 3, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively
(including $1 million and $4 million at October 3,
2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively, relating to the
sale of short-term receivables).
Sales
of Receivables
From time to time, the Company sells accounts receivable and
long-term receivables in transactions that qualify as
true-sales. Certain of these accounts receivable and
long-term receivables are sold to third parties on a one-time,
non-recourse basis, while others are sold to third parties under
committed facilities that involve contractual commitments from
these parties to purchase qualifying receivables up to an
outstanding monetary limit. Committed facilities may be
revolving in nature and, typically, must be renewed annually.
The Company may or may not retain the obligation to service the
sold accounts receivable and long-term receivables.
19
At October 3, 2009, the Company had $200 million of
committed revolving facilities for the sale of accounts
receivable, of which $66 million was utilized. At
December 31, 2008, the Company had $532 million of
committed revolving facilities for the sale of accounts
receivable, of which $497 million was utilized.
In addition, as of December 31, 2008, the Company had
$435 million of committed facilities associated with the
sale of long-term financing receivables primarily for a single
customer, of which $262 million was utilized. At
October 3, 2009, the Company had no significant committed
facilities for the sale of long-term receivables.
Total sales of accounts receivable and long-term receivables
were $383 million during the third quarter of 2009,
compared to $875 million during the third quarter of 2008.
Total sales of receivables were $1.0 billion during the
first nine months of 2009, compared to $2.5 billion during
the first nine months of 2008. At October 3, 2009, the
Company retained servicing obligations for $182 million of
sold accounts receivables and $355 million of long-term
receivables compared to $621 of accounts receivables and
$400 million of long-term receivables at December, 31, 2008.
Under certain arrangements, the value of accounts receivable
sold is covered by credit insurance purchased from third-party
insurance companies, less deductibles or self-insurance
requirements under the insurance policies. The Companys
total credit exposure, less insurance coverage, to outstanding
accounts receivables that have been sold was $25 million
and $23 million at October 3, 2009 and
December 31, 2008, respectively.
11. Commitments
and Contingencies
Legal
The Company is a defendant in various suits, claims and
investigations that arise in the normal course of business. In
the opinion of management, the ultimate disposition of these
matters will not have a material adverse effect on the
Companys consolidated financial position, liquidity or
results of operations.
Other
The Company is also a party to a variety of agreements pursuant
to which it is obligated to indemnify the other party with
respect to certain matters. Some of these obligations arise as a
result of divestitures of the Companys assets or
businesses and require the Company to hold the other party
harmless against losses arising from the settlement of these
pending obligations. The total amount of indemnification under
these types of provisions is $156 million, of which the
Company accrued $55 million at October 3, 2009 for
potential claims under these provisions.
In addition, the Company may provide indemnifications for losses
that result from the breach of general warranties contained in
certain commercial and intellectual property. Historically, the
Company has not made significant payments under these
agreements. However, there is an increasing risk in relation to
patent indemnities given the current legal climate.
In indemnification cases, payment by the Company is conditioned
on the other party making a claim pursuant to the procedures
specified in the particular contract, which procedures typically
allow the Company to challenge the other partys claims.
Further, the Companys obligations under these agreements
for indemnification based on breach of representations and
warranties are generally limited in terms of duration, and for
amounts not in excess of the contract value, and, in some
instances, the Company may have recourse against third parties
for certain payments made by the Company.

13. Reorganization
of Businesses
The Company maintains a formal Involuntary Severance Plan (the
Severance Plan), which permits the Company to offer
eligible employees severance benefits based on years of service
and employment grade level in the event that employment is
involuntarily terminated as a result of a
reduction-in-force
or restructuring. The Company recognizes termination benefits
based on formulas per the Severance Plan at the point in time
that future settlement is probable and can be reasonably
estimated based on estimates prepared at the time a
restructuring plan is approved by management. Exit costs consist
of future minimum lease payments on vacated facilities and other
contractual terminations. At each reporting date, the Company
evaluates its accruals for employee separation and exit costs to
ensure the accruals are still appropriate. In certain
circumstances, accruals are no longer needed because of
efficiencies in carrying out the plans or because employees
previously identified for separation resigned from the Company
and did not receive severance or were redeployed due to
circumstances not foreseen when the original plans were
initiated. In these cases, the Company reverses accruals through
the condensed consolidated statements of operations where the
original charges were recorded when it is determined they are no
longer needed.
2009
Charges
During the nine months ended October 3, 2009, the Company
committed to implement various productivity improvement plans
aimed at achieving long-term, sustainable profitability by
driving efficiencies and reducing operating costs. All three of
the Companys business segments, as well as corporate
functions, are impacted by these plans, with the majority of the
impact in the Mobile Devices segment. The employees affected are
located in all geographic regions.
During the three months ended October 3, 2009, the Company
recorded net reorganization of business charges of
$4 million in Costs of sales in the Companys
condensed consolidated statements of operations. Included in the
aggregate $4 million are charges of $22 million for
employee separation costs and $10 million for exit costs,
partially offset by $28 million of reversals for accruals
no longer needed.
During the nine months ended October 3, 2009, the Company
recorded net reorganization of business charges of
$266 million, including $59 million of charges in
Costs of sales and $207 million of charges under Other
charges in the Companys condensed consolidated statements
of operations. Included in the aggregate $266 million are
charges of $286 million for employee separation costs,
$32 million for exit costs and $18 million for fixed
asset impairment charges, partially offset by $70 million
of reversals for accruals no longer needed.

Operating Cash Flow of $616 Million:
We
generated net cash from operating activities of
$616 million in the third quarter of 2009, compared to

Net sales for each of our business segments were as follows:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In Mobile Devices:
Net sales were
$1.7 billion in the third quarter of 2009, a decrease of
46% compared to net sales of $3.1 billion in the third
quarter of 2008. The decrease in net sales was primarily driven
by a 46% decrease in unit shipments, partially offset by a 2%
increase in average selling price (ASP). On a
geographic basis, net sales decreased substantially in all
regions. On a product technology basis, net sales decreased
substantially for GSM, CDMA and 3G technologies, partially
offset by an increase in net sales for iDEN technology.
|
|
|
|
|
|
In Home and Networks Mobility:
Net sales were
$2.0 billion in the third quarter of 2009, a decrease of
15% compared to net sales of $2.4 billion in the third
quarter of 2008. On a geographic basis, net sales decreased in
all regions. The decrease in net sales reflects a 24% decrease
in net sales in the home business and a 7% decrease in net sales
in the networks business.
|
|
|
|
|
|
In Enterprise Mobility Solutions:
Net sales
were $1.8 billion in the third quarter of 2009, a decrease
of 13% compared to net sales of $2.0 billion in the third
quarter of 2008. On a geographic basis, net sales decreased in
the Europe, Middle East and Africa region (EMEA),
North America and Latin America and increased in Asia. The
decrease in net sales reflects a 17% decrease in net sales to
the commercial enterprise market and an 11% decrease in net
sales to the government and public safety market.

Looking
Forward
Challenging economic conditions around the world have impacted
many of our customers and consumers, resulting in reduced demand
in many of our businesses. In the third quarter, although sales
remained substantially below year ago levels, we continued to
see some stabilization in global economic conditions. For the
longer term, the fundamental trend towards the dissolution of
boundaries between the home, work and mobility continues to
evolve. We believe our focus on designing and delivering
differentiated wired and wireless communications products,
unique experiences and powerful networks, as well as
complementary support services, will enable consumers to have a
broader choice of when, where and how they connect to people,
information and entertainment. While many markets we serve will
have little to no growth, or may even contract, for the full
year 2009, there still remain large numbers of businesses and
consumers around the world who have yet to experience the
benefits of converged wireless communications, mobility and the
Internet. As the worldwide economies, financial markets and
business conditions improve, the Company will have new
opportunities to extend our brand, to market our products and
services, and to pursue profitable growth.
In our Mobile Devices business, we expect the overall global
handset market to remain intensely competitive, with lower total
demand in 2009 than in 2008 due to the continued adverse
economic environment around the world. Our strategy is focused
on simplifying our product platforms, enhancing our smartphone
portfolio, reducing our cost structure and strengthening our
position in priority markets. Our transition to a more
competitive portfolio will accelerate in the fourth quarter of
2009, with the introduction of two smartphones based on the
Android operating system and our
MOTOBLUR
tm
software. In 2010, a significant number of our new devices will
be smartphones as we expand Android across a broader set of
price points and address a wider set of customers. Our initial
market focus will include North America, Latin America and parts
of Asia, including China. Based upon our performance in these
markets, we will look to expand our presence in other geographic
regions, including EMEA. We will continue to deliver a feature
phone portfolio, albeit more limited than in the past, by
leveraging our ODM partnerships to meet carrier requirements and
extend our brand. We will also continue our focus on our
accessories portfolio to deliver complete mobile experiences and
to complement our handset features and functionalities.
Cost-reduction initiatives have been implemented this year to
ensure that we have a more competitive cost structure. These
actions will accelerate our speed to market with new products,
allow us to offer richer consumer experiences and improve our
financial performance.
In our Home and Networks Mobility business, we are focused on
delivering personalized media experiences to consumers at home
and
on-the-go
and enabling service providers to operate their networks more
efficiently and profitably. We will build on our market leading
position in digital entertainment devices and video delivery
systems to capitalize on demand for high definition TV,
personalized video services, broadband connectivity and higher
speed. Due to economic conditions, particularly in
U.S. housing, demand has slowed in 2009 in the home
business addressable market. We continue to invest in
next-generation wireless technologies with our WiMAX and LTE
systems. Our global customer footprint is growing and we now
expect to achieve approximately $600 million in WiMAX
product sales in 2009. We expect the overall 2G and 3G wireless
infrastructure market to decline in 2009 compared to 2008 and to
remain highly

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
competitive. The Home and Networks Mobility business will
continue to optimize its cost structure and will continue to
make investments in next-generation technologies commensurate
with opportunities for profitable growth.
In our Enterprise Mobility Solutions business, we have market
leading positions in both mission-critical and
business-critical
communications solutions. We continue to develop next-generation
products and solutions for our government and public safety and
commercial enterprise customers. We believe that our government
and public safety customers will continue to place a high
priority on mission-critical communications and homeland
security solutions. Our focus is on the innovation and delivery
of products that meet our customers needs, such as the
recent introduction of our new
APX
TM
7000
Project 25 two-way radio, which has multi-band functionality
that provides instant interoperability between first responders,
improves officer coordination and response time and delivers
loud, clear audio in a rugged, ergonomic form factor. We began
shipping the APX portable in the second quarter of 2009 with
strong customer reception. To complement the APX portable, we
will begin shipping the APX mobile radio during the fourth
quarter of 2009. The focus for our commercial enterprise
customers is two-way, converged communications and solutions
that increase worker mobility and productivity, as well as
enhance end user experiences. Commercial enterprise customers
continue to face challenging, yet stabilizing economic
conditions. As commercial enterprise customers choose to
purchase, upgrade and replace equipment in the future, they can
choose from new rugged product offerings. In the third quarter,
we have announced the new MC9500, our most rugged mobile
computer, as well as the MT2000 Series of handheld barcode
scanners that incorporates the benefits of a mobile computer. In
the government and public safety market, while we are currently
experiencing stable levels of demand, budget constraints could
impact the timing and volume of purchases by our customers,
resulting in lower spending for the full year 2009 compared to
2008. We believe that our comprehensive portfolio of products
and services and market leadership make our Enterprise Mobility
Solutions business well-positioned for growth as the worldwide
economy begins to improve.
In February 2009, the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of
2009 became law. This stimulus package implements nearly
$800 billion of spending and investment by the
U.S. Federal government, including spending in areas of
infrastructure and technology, which may benefit our customers
and, consequently, Motorola. Other governments around the world
are implementing similar stimulus packages. These stimulus
packages present opportunities for Motorola in terms of
equipment sales and tax incentives. In 2009, we expect these
stimulus packages to largely provide funding for the
continuation of existing projects and procurement plans that may
have otherwise been delayed or suspended due to budget
shortfalls. We will continue to monitor these activities and
partner with our customers to drive these opportunities.
The Company has implemented a number of global actions to reduce
its cost structure. These actions are primarily focused on our
Mobile Devices business, but also include our other businesses
and corporate functions. These actions have already resulted in
a significant reduction in the Companys cost structure in
2009 and are expected to continue to do so for the full year and
into 2010. To ensure alignment with changing market conditions,
the Company will continually review its cost structure as it
aggressively manages costs while maintaining investments in
innovation and future growth opportunities.
The Company has previously announced that it is pursuing the
creation of two independent, publicly traded companies. The
Company continues to progress on various elements of its
separation plan. Management and the Board of Directors remain
committed to separation in as expeditious a manner as possible
and continue to believe this is the best path for the Company to
maximize value for all of its shareholders.
The Company remains very focused on the strength of its balance
sheet and its overall liquidity position. For the remainder of
2009, operating cash flow improvement, working capital
management and preservation of cash will continue to be major
focuses for the Company. We will continue to direct our
available funds, including the Sigma Fund investments, primarily
into cash or very highly rated, short-term securities. During
the first nine months of 2009, the Company repatriated
approximately $2 billion in funds to the U.S. from
international jurisdictions with minimal cash tax cost. The
Company expects to continue to repatriate funds, as appropriate,
with minimal cash tax cost during the remainder of 2009. The
Company believes it has more than sufficient liquidity to
operate its business.
We conduct our business in highly competitive markets, facing
both new and established competitors. The markets for many of
our products are characterized by rapidly changing technologies,
frequent new product introductions, changing consumer trends,
short product life cycles and evolving industry standards.
Market disruptions caused by new technologies, the entry of new
competitors into markets we serve, and frequent consolidations
among our customers and competitors, among other matters, can
introduce volatility into our businesses. We face a challenging
global economic environment with reduced visibility and slowing
demand. Meeting all of these challenges requires consistent
operational planning and execution and investment in technology,
resulting in innovative products that meet the needs of our
customers around the world. As we execute on meeting these
objectives, we remain focused on taking the necessary action to
design and deliver differentiated and innovative products and
services that will advance the way the world connects by
simplifying and personalizing communications and enhancing
mobility.

Results
of OperationsThree months ended October 3, 2009
compared to three months ended September 27, 2008
Net
Sales
Net sales were $5.5 billion in the third quarter of 2009,
down 27% compared to net sales of $7.5 billion in the third
quarter of 2008. The decrease in net sales reflects: (i) a
$1.4 billion, or 46%, decrease in net sales in the Mobile
Devices segment, (ii) a $362 million, or 15%, decrease
in net sales in the Home and Networks Mobility segment, and
(iii) a $260 million, or 13%, decrease in net sales in
the Enterprise Mobility Solutions segment. The 46% decrease in
net sales in the Mobile Devices segment was primarily driven by
a 46% decrease in unit shipments, partially offset by a 2%
increase in ASP. The 15% decrease in net sales in the Home and
Networks Mobility segment reflects a 24% decrease in net sales
in the home business and a 7% decrease in net sales in the
networks business. The 13% decrease in net sales in the
Enterprise Mobility Solutions segment reflects a 17% decrease in
net sales to the commercial enterprise market and an 11%
decrease in net sales to the government and public safety market.
Gross
Margin
Gross margin was $1.8 billion, or 33.2% of net sales, in
the third quarter of 2009, compared to $1.8 billion, or
24.1% of net sales, in the third quarter of 2008. Gross margin
increased in the Mobile Devices segment, while gross margin
decreased in the Enterprise Mobility Solutions and Home and
Networks Mobility segments. The increase in gross margin in the
Mobile Devices segment was primarily driven by: (i) lower
excess inventory and other related charges in 2009 than in 2008,
when the charges included a $370 million charge due to a
decision to consolidate software and silicon platforms, and
(ii) the absence in 2009 of a comparable $150 million
charge in 2008 related to settlement of the Freescale

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND
ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Semiconductor purchase commitment, partially offset by the 46%
decrease in net sales. The decrease in gross margin in the
Enterprise Mobility Solutions segment was primarily driven
by the 13% decrease in net sales and an unfavorable product
mix. The decrease in gross margin in the Home and Networks
Mobility segment was primarily due to the 15% decrease in net
sales, partially offset by a favorable product mix.
The increase in gross margin as a percentage of net sales in the
third quarter of 2009 compared to the third quarter of 2008 was
primarily driven by increases in gross margin percentage in the
Mobile Devices and Home and Networks Mobility segments,
partially offset by a decrease in gross margin percentage in the
Enterprise Mobility Solutions segment. The Companys
overall gross margin as a percentage of net sales can be
impacted by the proportion of overall net sales generated by its
various businesses.
Selling,
General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative (SG&A)
expenses decreased 23% to $800 million, or 14.7% of net
sales, in the third quarter of 2009, compared to
$1.0 billion, or 14.0% of net sales, in the third quarter
of 2008. The decrease in SG&A expenses reflects lower
SG&A expenses in the Mobile Devices and Enterprise Mobility
Solutions segments, partially offset by higher SG&A
expenses in the Home and Networks Mobility segment. The decrease
in the Mobile Devices segment was primarily driven by lower
marketing expenses and savings from cost-reduction initiatives.
The decrease in the Enterprise Mobility Solutions segment was
primarily due to savings from cost-reduction initiatives. The
slight increase in the Home and Networks Mobility segment was
primarily due to higher facility exit costs. SG&A expenses
as a percentage of net sales increased in the Home and Networks
Mobility and Enterprise Mobility Solutions segments and
decreased in the Mobile Devices segment.
Research
and Development Expenditures
Research and development (R&D) expenditures
decreased 23% to $768 million, or 14.1% of net sales, in
the third quarter of 2009, compared to $999 million, or
13.4% of net sales, in the third quarter of 2008. The decrease
in R&D expenditures reflects lower R&D expenditures in
all segments, primarily due to savings from cost-reduction
initiatives. R&D expenditures as a percentage of net sales
increased in all segments. The Company participates in very
competitive industries with constant changes in technology and,
accordingly, the Company continues to believe that a strong
commitment to R&D is required to drive long-term growth.
Other
Charges
The Company recorded net charges of $112 million in Other
charges in the third quarter of 2009, compared to net charges of
$212 million in the third quarter of 2008. The charges in
the third quarter of 2009 included: (i) $69 million of
charges relating to the amortization of intangibles,
(ii) $24 million of charges related to an
environmental reserve, and (iii) $19 million of
separation-related transaction costs. The charges in the third
quarter of 2008 included: (i) $128 million of asset
impairment charges, (ii) $80 million of charges
relating to the amortization of intangible assets,
(iii) $31 million of net reorganization of business
charges included in Other charges, and
(iv) $21 million of separation-related transaction
costs, partially offset by a $48 million gain on the sale
of property, plant and equipment. The net reorganization of
business charges are discussed in further detail in the
Reorganization of Businesses section.
Net
Interest Expense
Net interest expense was $49 million in the third quarter
of 2009, compared to net interest income of $18 million in
the third quarter of 2008. Net interest expense in the third
quarter of 2009 includes interest expense of $63 million,
partially offset by interest income of $14 million. Net
interest income in the third quarter of 2008 included interest
income of $70 million, partially offset by interest expense
of $52 million. The increase in net interest expense is
primarily attributable to: (i) lower interest income due to
the decrease in average cash, cash equivalents and Sigma Fund
balances in the third quarter of 2009 compared to the third
quarter of 2008, (ii) a change in the investment mix of the
Sigma Fund to more liquid securities with shorter maturities,
and (iii) the significant decrease in short-term interest
rates. In addition, there was a $29 million offset in
interest expense in the third quarter of 2008 related to the
recognition of previously unrecognized tax benefits that was not
repeated in the third quarter of 2009. These factors were
partially offset by a decrease in the Companys level of
outstanding debt.
Gains on
Sales of Investments and Businesses
Gains on sales of investments and businesses were
$21 million in the third quarter of 2009, compared to gains
of $7 million in the third quarter of 2008. In the third
quarter of 2009, the net gain was primarily comprised of gains
related to sales of certain of the Companys equity
investments. In the third quarter of 2008, the net gain
primarily related to the sale of several small investments.

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND
ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Other
Net charges classified as Other, as presented in Other income
(expense), were $64 million in the third quarter of 2009,
compared to net charges of $167 million in the third
quarter of 2008. The net charges in the third quarter of 2009
were primarily comprised of: (i) $31 million of
investment impairments, (ii) $21 million of foreign
currency expense, and (ii) an $8 million loss from the
Sigma Fund investments. The net other charges in the third
quarter of 2008 were primarily comprised of:
(i) $141 million of charges attributed to
other-than-temporary
declines in Sigma Fund investments resulting from the
Companys investment holdings in Lehman Brothers Holdings
Inc. (Lehman), Washington Mutual, Inc.
(WaMu), and Sigma Finance Corporation
(SFC), a special investment vehicle managed by
United Kingdom based Gordian Knot Limited, and
(ii) $48 million of foreign currency expense.
Effective
Tax Rate
The Company recorded $14 million of net tax expense in the
third quarter of 2009, resulting in an effective tax rate of
39%, compared to $203 million of net tax benefits,
resulting in an effective tax rate of 34%, in the third quarter
of 2008. The Companys effective tax rate for the third
quarter of 2009 is greater than the U.S. statutory tax rate
of 35% primarily due to certain separation-related transaction
costs incurred during the quarter for which the Company recorded
no tax benefit.
The Companys effective tax rate will change from period to
period based on non-recurring events, such as the settlement of
income tax audits, changes in valuation allowances and the tax
impact of significant unusual or extraordinary items, as well as
recurring factors including changes in the geographic mix of
income before taxes and effects of various global income tax
strategies.
Earnings
(loss) from Continuing Operations
The Company had net earnings from continuing operations before
income taxes of $36 million in the third quarter of 2009,
compared with a net loss from continuing operations before
income taxes of $594 million in the third quarter of 2008.
After taxes, and excluding Earnings (loss) attributable to
noncontrolling interests, the Company had net earnings from
continuing operations of $12 million, or $0.01 per diluted
share, in the third quarter of 2009, compared to a net loss from
continuing operations of $397 million, or $0.18 per diluted
share, in the third quarter of 2008.
Results
of OperationsNine months ended October 3, 2009
compared to nine months ended September 27, 2008
Net
Sales
Net sales were $16.3 billion in the first nine months of
2009, down 29% compared to net sales of $23.0 billion in
the first nine months of 2008. The decrease in net sales
reflects: (i) a $4.4 billion, or 45%, decrease in net
sales in the Mobile Devices segment, (ii) a
$1.5 billion, or 20%, decrease in net sales in the Home and
Networks Mobility segment, and (iii) an $824 million,
or 14%, decrease in net sales in the Enterprise Mobility
Solutions segment. The 45% decrease in net sales in the Mobile
Devices segment was primarily driven by a 47% decrease in unit
shipments, partially offset by a 3% increase in ASP. The 20%
decrease in net sales in the Home and Networks Mobility segment
reflects a 21% decrease in net sales in the home business and a
19% decrease in net sales in the networks business. The 14%
decrease in net sales in the Enterprise Mobility Solutions
segment reflects a 24% decline in net sales to the commercial
enterprise market and a 10% decline in net sales to the
government and public safety market.
Gross
Margin
Gross margin was $5.0 billion, or 30.7% of net sales, in
the first nine months of 2009, compared to $6.3 billion, or
27.3% of net sales, in the first nine months of 2008. The
decrease in gross margin reflects lower gross margin in all
segments. The decrease in gross margin in the Mobile Devices
segment was primarily driven by the 45% decrease in net sales,
partially offset by: (i) lower excess inventory and other
related charges in 2009 than in 2008, when the charges included
a $370 million charge due to a decision to consolidate software
and silicon platforms, and (ii) the absence in 2009 of a
comparable $150 million charge in 2008 related to
settlement of the Freescale Semiconductor purchase commitment.
The decrease in gross margin in the Enterprise Mobility
Solutions segment was primarily driven by the 14% decrease in
net sales and an unfavorable product mix. The decrease in gross
margin in the Home and Networks Mobility segment was primarily
driven by the 20% decrease in net sales, partially offset by a
favorable product and regional mix.
The increase in gross margin as a percentage of net sales in the
first nine months of 2009 compared to the first nine months of
2008 was primarily driven by increases in gross margin
percentage in the Mobile Devices and Home and Networks Mobility
segments, partially offset by a decrease in gross margin
percentage in the Enterprise Mobility Solutions segment.

OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Selling,
General and Administrative Expenses
SG&A expenses decreased 25% to $2.5 billion, or 15.3%
of net sales, in the first nine months of 2009, compared to
$3.3 billion, or 14.5% of net sales, in the first nine
months of 2008. The decrease in SG&A expenses reflects
lower SG&A expenses in all segments. The decrease in the
Mobile Devices segment was primarily driven by lower marketing
expenses and savings from cost-reduction initiatives. The
decreases in the Enterprise Mobility Solutions and Home and
Networks Mobility segments were primarily due to savings from
cost-reduction initiatives. SG&A expenses as a percentage
of net sales increased in the Enterprise Mobility Solutions and
Home and Networks Mobility segments and decreased in the Mobile
Devices segment.
Research
and Development Expenditures
R&D expenditures decreased 23% to $2.4 billion, or
14.6% of net sales, in the first nine months of 2009, compared
to $3.1 billion, or 13.5% of net sales, in the first nine
months of 2008. The decrease in R&D expenditures reflects
lower R&D expenditures in all segments. The decreases in
all segments were primarily due to savings from cost-reduction
initiatives. R&D expenditures as a percentage of net sales
increased in all segments.
Other
Charges
The Company recorded net charges of $444 million in Other
charges in the first nine months of 2009, compared to net
charges of $546 million in the first nine months of 2008.
The charges in the first nine months of 2009 included:
(i) $210 million of charges relating to the
amortization of intangibles, (ii) $207 million of net
reorganization of business charges included in Other charges,
(iii) $39 million of charges related to a facility
impairment, (iv) $24 million of charges related to an
environmental reserve, and (v) $19 million of
separation-related transaction costs, partially offset by income
of $55 million related to collections received on a legal
settlement. The charges in the first nine months of 2008
included: (i) $244 million of charges relating to the
amortization of intangible assets, (ii) $128 million
of asset impairment charges, (iii) $124 million of net
reorganization of business charges included in Other charges,
(iv) $57 million of charges related to legal
settlements, and (v) $41 million of separation-related
transaction costs, partially offset by $48 million of gains
from the sale of property, plant and equipment. The net
reorganization of business charges are discussed in further
detail in the Reorganization of Businesses section.
Net
Interest Expense
Net interest expense was $114 million in the first nine
months of 2009, compared to net interest income of
$6 million in the first nine months of 2008. Net interest
expense in the first nine months of 2009 includes interest
expense of $174 million, partially offset by interest
income of $60 million. Net interest income in the first
nine months of 2008 included interest income of
$210 million, partially offset by interest expense of
$204 million. The increase in net interest expense is
primarily attributed to: (i) lower interest income due to
the decrease in average cash, cash equivalents and Sigma Fund
balances in the first nine months of 2009 compared to the first
nine months of 2008, (ii) a change in the investment mix of
the Sigma Fund to more liquid securities with shorter
maturities, and (iii) the significant decrease in
short-term interest rates. In addition, there was a
$29 million offset to interest expense in the first nine
months of 2008 related to the recognition of previously
unrecognized tax benefits that was not repeated in the first
nine months of 2009. These factors were partially offset by a
decrease in the Companys level of outstanding debt.
Gains on
Sales of Investments and Businesses
Gains on sales of investments and businesses were
$31 million in the first nine months of 2009, compared to
gains of $65 million in the first nine months of 2008. In
the first nine months of 2009, the net gain primarily relates to
sales of certain of the Companys equity investments,
partially offset by a net loss on the sale of specific
businesses. In the first nine months of 2008, the net gain
primarily related to sales of a number of the Companys
equity investments, of which $29 million of gain was
attributed to a single investment.
Other
Net income classified as Other, as presented in Other income
(expense), was $29 million in the first nine months of
2009, compared to net charges of $264 million in the first
nine months of 2008. The net income in the first nine months of
2009 was primarily comprised of: (i) a $67 million
gain related to the extinguishment of a portion of the
Companys outstanding long-term debt, and
(ii) $67 million of gains from Sigma Fund investments,
partially offset by: (i) $64 million of
other-than-temporary
investment impairment charges, and (ii) $49 million of
foreign currency expense. The net charges in the first nine
months of 2008 were primarily comprised of:
(i) $145 million of charges attributed to
other-than-temporary
declines in Sigma Fund investments, (ii) $143 million
of investment impairment charges, of which
32
MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
$83 million were attributed to a single strategic
investment, and (iii) $34 million of foreign currency
expense, partially offset by $24 million of gains relating
to several interest rate swaps not designated as hedges.
Effective
Tax Rate
The Company recorded $134 million of net tax benefits in
the first nine months of 2009, resulting in an effective tax
rate of 37%, compared to $325 million of net tax benefits,
resulting in an effective tax rate of 36%, in the first nine
months of 2008. The Companys effective tax rate for the
first nine months of 2009 was greater than the
U.S. statutory tax rate of 35% primarily due to a reduction
in unrecognized tax benefits for facts that now indicate the
extent to which certain tax positions are more-likely-than-not
of being sustained.
The Companys effective tax rate will change from period to
period based on non-recurring events, such as the settlement of
income tax audits, changes in valuation allowances and the tax
impact of significant unusual or extraordinary items, as well as
recurring factors including changes in the geographic mix of
income before taxes and effects of various global income tax
strategies.
Loss from
Continuing Operations
The Company incurred a net loss from continuing operations
before income taxes of $365 million in the first nine
months of 2009, compared with a net loss from continuing
operations before income taxes of $909 million in the first
nine months of 2008. After taxes, and excluding Earnings (loss)
attributable to noncontrolling interests, the Company incurred a
net loss from continuing operations of $253 million, or
$0.11 per diluted share, in the first nine months of 2009,
compared to a net loss from continuing operations of
$587 million, or $0.26 per diluted share, in the first nine
months of 2008.
Earnings
from Discontinued Operations
During the first quarter of 2009, the Company completed the
sales of: (i) Good Technology, and (ii) the biometrics
business unit, which included its Printrak trademark. After
taxes, the Company had earnings from discontinued operations of
$60 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, in the first nine
months of 2009, all of which occurred during the first quarter
of 2009. The Company had no such activity during the second or
third quarters of 2009. For all other applicable prior periods,
the operating results of these businesses have not been
reclassified as discontinued operations, since the results are
not material to the Companys condensed consolidated
financial statements.
Reorganization
of Businesses
The Company maintains a formal Involuntary Severance Plan (the
Severance Plan), which permits the Company to offer
eligible employees severance benefits based on years of service
and employment grade level in the event that employment is
involuntarily terminated as a result of a
reduction-in-force
or restructuring. The Company recognizes termination benefits
based on formulas per the Severance Plan at the point in time
that future settlement is probable and can be reasonably
estimated based on estimates prepared at the time a
restructuring plan is approved by management. Exit costs consist
of future minimum lease payments on vacated facilities and other
contractual terminations. At each reporting date, the Company
evaluates its accruals for employee separation and exit costs to
ensure the accruals are still appropriate. In certain
circumstances, accruals are no longer needed because of
efficiencies in carrying out the plans or because employees
previously identified for separation resigned from the Company
and did not receive severance or were redeployed due to
circumstances not foreseen when the original plans were
initiated. In these cases, the Company reverses accruals through
the condensed consolidated statements of operations where the
original charges were recorded when it is determined they are no
longer needed.
The Company expects to realize cost-saving benefits of
approximately $104 million during the remaining three
months of 2009 from the plans that were initiated during the
first nine months of 2009, representing:
(i) $20 million of savings in Costs of sales, (ii)
$45 million of savings in R&D expenditures, and
(iii) $39 million of savings in SG&A expenses.
Beyond 2009, the Company expects the reorganization plans
initiated during the first nine months of 2009 to provide
annualized cost savings of approximately $429 million,
representing: (i) $85 million of savings in Cost of
sales, (ii) $186 million of savings in R&D
expenditures, and (iii) $158 million of savings in
SG&A expenses.
2009
Charges
During the first nine months of 2009, the Company committed to
implement various productivity improvement plans aimed at
achieving long-term, sustainable profitability by driving
efficiencies and reducing operating costs. All three of the
Companys business segments, as well as corporate
functions, are impacted by these plans, with the majority of the
impact in the Mobile Devices segment. The employees affected are
located in all geographic regions.
33
MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND
ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
During the third quarter of 2009, the Company recorded net
reorganization of business charges of $4 million in Costs
of sales in the Companys condensed consolidated statements
of operations. Included in the aggregate $4 million are
charges of $22 million for employee separation costs and
$10 million for exit costs, partially offset by
$28 million of reversals for accruals no longer needed.
During the first nine months of 2009, the Company recorded net
reorganization of business charges of $266 million,
including $59 million of charges in Costs of sales and
$207 million of charges under Other charges in the
Companys condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Included in the aggregate $266 million are charges of
$286 million for employee separation costs,
$32 million for exit costs and $18 million for fixed
asset impairment charges, partially offset by $70 million
of reversals for accruals no longer needed.

Exit
Costs
At January 1, 2009, the Company had an accrual of
$80 million for exit costs attributable to lease
terminations. The additional 2009 charges of $32 million
are primarily related to the exit of leased facilities and
contractual termination costs. The adjustments of
$9 million reflect: (i) $7 million of reversals
of accruals no longer needed, and (ii) $2 million of
translation adjustments. The $42 million used in 2009
reflects cash payments. The remaining accrual of
$61 million, which is included in Accrued liabilities in
the Companys condensed consolidated balance sheets at
October 3, 2009, represents future cash payments, primarily
for lease termination obligations.
Employee
Separation Costs
At January 1, 2009, the Company had an accrual of
$170 million for employee separation costs, representing
the severance costs for approximately 2,000 employees. The
2009 additional charges of $286 million represent severance
costs for approximately an additional 7,000 employees, of which
2,300 are direct employees and 4,700 are indirect employees.
The adjustments of $57 million reflect $61 million of
reversals of accruals no longer needed, partially offset by
$4 million of translation adjustments.
During the first nine months of 2009, approximately 7,600
employees, of which 3,000 were direct employees and 4,600 were
indirect employees, were separated from the Company. The
$336 million used in 2009 reflects cash payments to these
separated employees. The remaining accrual of $63 million,
which is included in Accrued liabilities in the Companys
condensed consolidated balance sheets at October 3, 2009,
is expected to be paid to approximately 1,200 separated
employees in 2009.
2008
Charges
During the first nine months of 2008, the Company committed to
implement various productivity improvement plans aimed at
achieving long-term, sustainable profitability by driving
efficiencies and reducing operating costs.

Exit
Costs
At January 1, 2008, the Company had an accrual of
$42 million for exit costs attributable to lease
terminations. The 2008 additional charges of $20 million
are primarily related to the exit of leased facilities in the UK
by the Mobile Devices segment. The adjustments of
$1 million reflect $3 million of reversals of accruals
no longer needed, partially offset by $2 million of
translation adjustments. The $13 million used in 2008
reflects cash payments. The remaining accrual of
$48 million, which is included in Accrued liabilities in
the Companys condensed consolidated balance sheets at
September 27, 2008, represents future cash payments,
primarily for lease termination obligations.
Employee
Separation Costs
At January 1, 2008, the Company had an accrual of
$193 million for employee separation costs, representing
the severance costs for approximately 2,800 employees. The
2008 additional charges of $192 million represent severance
costs for approximately an additional 3,900 employees, of
which 2,000 were direct employees and 1,900 were indirect
employees.
The adjustments of $39 million reflect $44 million of
reversals of accruals no longer needed, partially offset by
$5 million of translation adjustments. The $44 million
of reversals represent previously accrued costs for
approximately 300 employees.
During the first nine months of 2008, approximately
4,800 employees, of which 2,500 were direct employees and
2,300 were indirect employees, were separated from the Company.
The $234 million used in 2008 reflects cash payments to
these separated employees. The remaining accrual of
$112 million, which is included in Accrued liabilities in
the Companys condensed consolidated balance sheets at
September 27, 2008, was expected to be paid to
approximately 1,600 employees during the last three months
of 2008. Since that time, $81 million has been paid to
approximately 1,400 separated employees and $17 million was
reversed.
35
MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND
ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
As highlighted in the condensed consolidated statements of cash
flows, the Companys liquidity and available capital
resources are impacted by four key components: (i) cash and
cash equivalents, (ii) operating activities,
(iii) investing activities, and (iv) financing
activities.
Cash
and Cash Equivalents
The Companys cash and cash equivalents (which are
highly-liquid investments with an original maturity of three
months or less) were $3.1 billion at both October 3,
2009 and December 31, 2008. At October 3, 2009,
$516 million of this amount was held in the U.S. and
$2.6 billion was held by the Company or its subsidiaries in
other countries. At October 3, 2009, restricted cash was
$391 million (including $137 million held outside the
U.S.), compared to $343 million (including
$279 million held outside the U.S.) at December 31,
2008.
The Company continues to analyze and review various repatriation
strategies to continue to efficiently repatriate funds. During
the first nine months of 2009, the Company repatriated
approximately $2 billion in funds to the U.S. from
international jurisdictions with minimal cash tax cost. The
Company has approximately $1.8 billion of earnings in
foreign subsidiaries that are not permanently reinvested and may
be repatriated without additional U.S. federal income tax
charges to the Companys condensed consolidated statements
of operations, given the U.S. Federal tax provisions
accrued on undistributed earnings and the utilization of
available foreign tax credits. On a cash basis, these
repatriations from the Companys
non-U.S. subsidiaries
could require the payment of additional foreign taxes. While the
Company regularly repatriates funds and a portion of offshore
funds can be repatriated with minimal adverse financial impact,
repatriation of some of these funds could be subject to delay
for local country approvals and could have potential adverse tax
consequences.
Operating
Activities
In the first nine months of 2009, the cash used for operating
activities was $248 million, compared to $41 million
of cash provided by operating activities in the first nine
months of 2008. The primary contributors to the usage of cash in
the first nine months of 2009 was a $2.8 billion decrease
in accounts payable and accrued liabilities, partially offset
by: (i) a $1.1 billion decrease in net inventory,
(ii) a $960 million decrease in other current assets,
and (iii) income from continuing operations (adjusted for
non-cash items) of $397 million.
Accounts Receivable:
The Companys net
accounts receivable were $3.4 billion at October 3,
2009, compared to $3.5 billion at December 31, 2008.
The slight decrease in net accounts receivable reflects a
decrease in accounts receivable in the Home and Network Mobility
segment and increases in accounts receivable in the Mobile
Devices and Enterprise Mobility Solutions segments. Total sales
of receivables were $1.0 billion during the first nine
months of 2009, compared to $2.5 billion during the first
nine months of 2008. The accounts receivable balance at
October 3, 2009 is relatively flat compared to the accounts
receivable balance at December 31, 2008, primarily due to
the reduction in the volume of accounts receivable sold, offset
by the reduction in net sales. The Companys businesses
sell their products in a variety of markets throughout the world
and payment terms can vary by market type and geographic
location. Accordingly, the Companys levels of net accounts
receivable can be impacted by the timing and level of sales that
are made by its various businesses and by the geographic
locations in which those sales are made.
As further described below under Sales of
Receivables, the Companys levels of net accounts
receivable can also be impacted by the timing and amount of
accounts receivable sold to third parties, which can vary by
period and can be impacted by numerous factors. Although the
Company continued to sell accounts receivable during the first
nine months of 2009, the volume of accounts receivable sold was
lower than in prior periods. The lower volume was primarily
driven by the Companys lower net sales and the
Companys decision to reduce accounts receivable sales. In
addition, the availability of committed facilities to sell such
accounts receivable decreased due to global economic conditions
and the related tightening in the credit markets. During the
fourth quarter of 2009, the Company expects quarterly sales of
accounts receivable in a range comparable to the third quarter
of 2009, in which $383 million of receivables were sold.
Inventory:
The Companys net inventory
was $1.5 billion at October 3, 2009, compared to
$2.7 billion at December 31, 2008. Net inventory
decreased in all segments and decreased substantially in the
Mobile Devices segment, due to supply-chain efficiencies.
Inventory management continues to be an area of focus as the
Company balances the need to maintain strategic inventory levels
to ensure competitive delivery performance to its customers
against the risk of inventory excess and obsolescence due to
rapidly changing technology and customer spending requirements.
Accounts Payable:
The Companys accounts
payable were $2.2 billion at October 3, 2009, compared
to $3.2 billion at December 31, 2008. Accounts payable
decreased in all segments. The Company buys products in a
variety of markets throughout the world and payment terms can
vary by market type and geographic location. Accordingly, the
Companys
36
MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND
ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
levels of accounts payable can be impacted by the timing and
level of purchases made by its various businesses and by the
geographic locations in which those purchases are made.
Reorganization of Businesses:
The Company has
implemented reorganization of businesses plans. Cash payments
for employee severance and exit costs in connection with a
number of these plans were $378 million in the first nine
months of 2009, as compared to $247 million in the first
nine months of 2008. Of the $124 million of reorganization
of businesses accruals at October 3, 2009, $63 million
relate to employee separation costs and are expected to be paid
in 2009. The remaining $61 million in accruals relate to
lease termination obligations that are expected to be paid over
a number of years.
Benefit Plan Contributions:
During the first
nine months of 2009, the Company contributed $80 million
and $29 million to its U.S. Regular Pension Plan and
non-U.S. plans,
respectively. The Company does not expect to make significant
additional contributions to its U.S. Regular Pension Plan
during 2009. The Company has amended its U.S. Regular
Pension Plan, the Officers Plan and the Motorola
Supplemental Pension Plan such that: (i) no participant
shall accrue any benefits or additional benefits on or after
March 1, 2009, and (ii) no compensation increases
earned by a participant on or after March 1, 2009 shall be
used to compute any accrued benefit. For the remainder of 2009,
the Company expects to make additional cash contributions of
approximately $15 million to its
non-U.S. plans
and no cash contributions to its retiree health care plan.
Investing
Activities
The most significant components of the Companys investing
activities in the first nine months of 2009 included:
(i) proceeds from sales of investments and businesses,
(ii) proceeds from sales of short-term investments,
(iii) capital expenditures, (iv) net proceeds from
sales of Sigma Fund investments, and (v) strategic
acquisitions of, or investments in, other companies.
Net cash provided by investing activities was $395 million
in the first nine months of 2009, compared to net cash provided
of $748 million in the first nine months of 2008. This
$353 million decrease was primarily due to: (i) a
$1.0 billion decrease in cash received from net sales of
Sigma Fund investments, (ii) a $112 million decrease
in distributions received from investments, and (iii) a
$94 million decrease in proceeds from sales of property,
plant and equipment, partially offset by: (i) a
$332 million increase in proceeds from sales of short-term
investments, (ii) a $198 million decrease in cash used
for capital expenditures, (iii) a $197 million
increase in proceeds from sales of investments and businesses,
and (iii) a $150 million decrease in cash used for
acquisitions and investments.
Sigma Fund:
The Company and its wholly-owned
subsidiaries invest most of their U.S. dollar-denominated
cash in a fund (the Sigma Fund) that is designed to
provide investment returns similar to a money market fund. The
Company received $98 million in net proceeds from sales of
Sigma Fund investments in the first nine months of 2009,
compared to $1.1 billion in net proceeds from sales of
Sigma Fund investments in the first nine months of 2008. The
Sigma Fund aggregate fair values were $4.1 billion at
October 3, 2009 (including $2.2 billion held by the
Company or its subsidiaries outside the U.S.), compared to
$4.2 billion at December 31, 2008 (including
$2.4 billion held by the Company or its subsidiaries
outside the U.S.). While the Company regularly repatriates funds
and a portion of offshore funds can be repatriated with minimal
adverse financial impact, repatriation of some of these funds
could be subject to delay and could have potential adverse tax
consequences. The Company continues to analyze and review
various repatriation strategies to allow for the efficient
repatriation of
non-U.S. funds,
including Sigma Fund investments.
The Sigma Fund portfolio is managed by four independent
investment management firms. The investment guidelines of the
Sigma Fund require that purchased investments must be in
high-quality, investment grade (rated at least
A/A-1
by
Standard & Poors or
A2/P-1
by
Moodys Investors Service), U.S. dollar-denominated
debt obligations, including certificates of deposit, commercial
paper, government bonds, corporate bonds and asset- and
mortgage-backed securities. Under the Sigma Funds
investment policies, except for debt obligations of the
U.S. treasury and U.S. agencies, no more than 5% of
the Sigma Fund portfolio is to consist of debt obligations of
any one issuer. The Sigma Funds investment policies
further require that floating rate investments must have a
maturity at purchase date that does not exceed thirty-six months
with an interest rate that is reset at least annually. The
average interest rate reset of the investments held by the funds
must be 120 days or less. The actual average interest rate
reset of the portfolio (excluding cash and defaulted securities)
was 20 days and 38 days at October 3, 2009 and
December 31, 2008, respectively.
Investments in the Sigma Fund are carried at fair value. The
Company primarily relies on valuation pricing models and broker
quotes to determine the fair value of investments in the Sigma
Fund. The valuation models are developed and maintained by
third-party pricing services, and use a number of standard
inputs, including benchmark yields, reported trades,
broker/dealer quotes where the counterparty is standing ready
and able to transact, issuer spreads, benchmark securities,
bids, offers and other reference data. For each asset class,
quantifiable inputs related to perceived market movements and
sector news may be considered in addition to the standard inputs.
37
MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND
ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
During the first nine months of 2009, the Company recorded gains
from the Sigma Fund investments of $67 million in Other
income (expense) in the condensed consolidated statement of
operations.
During the fourth quarter of 2008, the Company changed its
accounting for changes in the fair value of investments in the
Sigma Fund. Prior to the fourth quarter of 2008, the Company
distinguished between declines it considered temporary and
declines it considered permanent. When it became probable that
the Company would not collect all amounts it was owed on a
security according to its contractual terms, the Company
considered the security to be impaired and recorded the
permanent decline in fair value in earnings. During the first
nine months of 2008, the Company recorded $145 million of
permanent impairments of Sigma Fund investments in the condensed
consolidated statement of operations. A decline in fair value of
a security that the Company considered temporary was recorded as
a component of stockholders equity. During the first nine
months of 2008, the Company recorded $37 million of
temporary declines in the fair value of Sigma Fund investments
in its condensed consolidated statements of stockholders
equity.
Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2008, the Company began
recording all changes in the fair value of investments in the
Sigma Fund in the condensed consolidated statements of
operations. Accordingly, the Company recorded the cumulative
loss of $101 million on investments in the Sigma Fund
investments in its consolidated statement of operations during
the fourth quarter of 2008. The Company determined amounts that
arose in periods prior to the fourth quarter of 2008 were not
material to the consolidated results of operations in those
periods.
At October 3, 2009, the Companys Sigma Fund held a
$45 million CIT variable-rate medium-term note due March
2010 with a recorded fair value of $31 million. Subsequent
to October 3, 2009, there has been a slight decline in the
value of this note due to CIT filing for Chapter 11
bankruptcy. The maximum remaining potential loss on the CIT note
is $31 million, which represents the remaining fair value
of the note. Any additional changes in the value of the CIT note
will be recorded in the fourth quarter of 2009.
Strategic Acquisitions and Investments:
The
Company used net cash for acquisitions and new investment
activities of $30 million in the first nine months of 2009,
compared to net cash used of $180 million in the first nine
months of 2008. The cash used in the first nine months of 2009
was for small strategic investments across the Company. During
the first nine months of 2008, the Company: (i) acquired a
controlling interest of Vertex Standard Co. Ltd. (part of the
Enterprise Mobility Solutions segment), (ii) acquired the
assets related to digital cable set-top products of Zhejiang
Dahua Digital Technology Co., LTD. and Hangzhou Image Silicon,
known collectively as Dahua Digital (part of the Home and
Networks Mobility segment), and (iii) completed the
acquisition of Soundbuzz Pte. Ltd. (part of the Mobile Devices
segment).
Capital Expenditures:
Capital expenditures
were $189 million in the first nine months of 2009,
compared to $387 million in the first nine months of 2008.
The Companys emphasis when making capital expenditures is
to focus on strategic investments driven by customer demand and
new design capability.
Sales of Investments and Businesses:
The
Company received $280 million in net proceeds from the
sales of investments and businesses in the first nine months of
2009, compared to proceeds of $83 million in the first nine
months of 2008. The $280 million in proceeds in the first
nine months of 2009 was primarily related to: (i) the sale
of the biometrics business, which was sold during the first
quarter of 2009, and (ii) proceeds received in connection
with the sales of certain of the Companys equity
investments. The $83 million in proceeds in the first nine
months of 2008 were primarily comprised of net proceeds received
in connection with sales of certain of the Companys equity
investments.
Short-Term Investments:
At October 3,
2009, the Company had $15 million in short-term investments
(which are highly-liquid fixed-income investments with an
original maturity greater than three months but less than one
year), compared to $225 million of short-term investments
at December 31, 2008.
Investments:
In addition to available cash and
cash equivalents, the Sigma Fund balances (current and
non-current) and short-term investments, the Company views its
investments as an additional source of liquidity. The majority
of these securities are
available-for-sale
and cost-method investments in technology companies. The fair
market values of these securities are subject to substantial
price volatility. In addition, the realizable values of these
securities is subject to market and other conditions. At
October 3, 2009, the Companys
available-for-sale
equity securities portfolio had an approximate fair market value
of $169 million, which represented a cost basis of
$34 million and a net unrealized gain of $135 million.
At December 31, 2008, the Companys
available-for-sale
equity securities portfolio had an approximate fair market value
of $117 million, which represented a cost basis of
$114 million and a net unrealized gain of $3 million.
Financing
Activities
The most significant components of the Companys financing
activities in the first nine months of 2009 were:
(i) repayment and repurchase of debt, (ii) payment of
dividends, (iii) issuance of common stock, and
(iv) repayment of short-term borrowings.
38
MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND
ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net cash used for financing activities was $198 million in
the first nine months of 2009, compared to $568 million
used in the first nine months of 2008. Cash used for financing
activities in the first nine months of 2009 was primarily:
(i) $130 million of cash used for the repurchase of
debt, (ii) $114 million of cash used to pay dividends,
and (iii) $71 million of cash used for the repayment
of short-term borrowings, partially offset by $110 million
of cash received from the issuance of common stock in connection
with the Companys employee stock option plans and employee
stock purchase plan.
Cash used for financing activities in the first nine months of
2008 was primarily: (i) $340 million of cash used to
pay dividends, (ii) $138 million of cash used to
purchase approximately 9.0 million shares of the
Companys common stock under the share repurchase program,
all during the first quarter of 2008,
(iii) $114 million of cash used for the repayment of
maturing long-term debt, (iv) $37 million of cash used
for the repayment of short-term borrowings, and
(v) $26 million in distributions to discontinued
operations, partially offset by $86 million of cash
received from the issuance of common stock in connection with
the Companys employee stock option plans and employee
stock purchase plan.
Short-Term Debt:
At October 3, 2009, the
Companys outstanding notes payable and current portion of
long-term debt was $24 million, compared to
$92 million at December 31, 2008. Net cash used for
the repayment of short-term borrowings was $71 million in
the first nine months of 2009, compared to repayment of
$37 million of short-term borrowings in the first nine
months of 2008. At October 3, 2009 and December 31,
2008, the Company had no commercial paper outstanding.
Long-Term Debt:
At October 3, 2009, the
Company had outstanding long-term debt of $3.9 billion,
compared to $4.1 billion outstanding at December 31,
2008.
During the first quarter of 2009, the Company completed the open
market purchase of $199 million of its outstanding
long-term debt for an aggregate purchase price of
$133 million, including $4 million of accrued
interest. The $199 million of long-term debt repurchased
included principal amounts of: (i) $11 million of the
$400 million outstanding of the 7.50% Debentures due
2025, (ii) $20 million of the $309 million
outstanding of the 6.50% Debentures due 2025,
(iii) $14 million of the $299 million outstanding
of the 6.50% Debentures due 2028, and
(iv) $154 million of the $600 million outstanding
of the 6.625% Senior Notes due 2037. The Company recognized
a gain of approximately $67 million related to these open
market purchases in Other within Other income (expense) in the
condensed consolidated statements of operations.
In March 2008, the Company repaid, at maturity, the entire
$114 million outstanding of 6.50% Senior Notes due
March 1, 2008.
The Company believes that it will be able to maintain sufficient
access to the capital markets, though there may be periods of
time when access to the capital markets is limited for all
issuers. As a split rated credit, the Companys
ability to issue long-term debt may be limited. The market into
which split rated debt is offered can be very volatile and can
be unavailable for periods of time. As a result, it may be more
difficult for the Company to quickly access the long-term debt
market and any debt issued may be more costly, which may impact
the Companys financial and operating flexibility.
The Company may from time to time seek to retire certain of its
outstanding debt through open market cash purchases,
privately-negotiated transactions or otherwise. Such
repurchases, if any, will depend on prevailing market
conditions, the Companys liquidity requirements,
contractual restrictions and other factors.
Share Repurchase Program:
During the first
nine months of 2009, the Company did not repurchase any of its
common shares. During the first nine months of 2008, the Company
paid an aggregate of $138 million, including transaction
costs, to repurchase 9.0 million shares at an average price
of $15.32, all of which were repurchased during the first
quarter of 2008.
Through actions taken in July 2006 and March 2007, the Board of
Directors had authorized the Company to repurchase an aggregate
amount of up to $7.5 billion of its outstanding shares of
common stock over a period of time. This authorization expired
in June 2009 and was not renewed. The Company has not
repurchased any shares since the first quarter of 2008. All
repurchased shares have been retired.
Payment of Dividends:
During the first nine
months of 2009, the Company paid $114 million in cash
dividends to holders of its common stock, all of which was paid
during the first quarter of 2009, related to the payment of a
dividend declared in November 2008. In February 2009, the
Company announced that its Board of Directors suspended the
declaration of quarterly dividends on the Companys common
stock. Currently, the Company does not expect to pay any
additional cash dividends during the remainder of 2009.
Credit Ratings:
Three independent credit
rating agencies, Fitch Ratings (Fitch), Moodys
Investors Service (Moodys) and
Standard & Poors (S&P), assign
ratings to the Companys short-term and long-term debt. The

Since the Company has investment grade ratings from Fitch and
Moodys and a non-investment grade rating from S&P, it
is referred to as a split rated credit.
Credit
Facilities
In June 2009, the Company elected to amend its domestic
syndicated revolving credit facility (as amended from time to
time, the Credit Facility) that is scheduled to
mature in December 2011. In light of ongoing uncertainties in
the macroeconomic environment and resulting capital market
dislocations, the Company believed it was prudent to restructure
the Credit Facility to facilitate ongoing access to incremental
liquidity. As part of the amendment, the Company reduced the
size of the Credit Facility to the lesser of:
(1) $1.5 billion, or (2) an amount determined
based on eligible domestic accounts receivable and inventory. If
the Company elects to borrow under the Credit Facility, only
then and not before, it would be required to pledge its domestic
accounts receivables and, at its option, domestic inventory. As
amended, the Credit Facility does not require the Company to
meet any financial covenants unless remaining availability under
the Credit Facility is less than $225 million. In addition,
until borrowings are made under the Credit Facility, the Company
is able to use its working capital assets in any capacity in
conjunction with other capital market funding alternatives that
may be available to the Company. The Company has never borrowed
under this Credit Facility or predecessor syndicated revolving
credit facilities.
Events over the past several quarters, including failures and
near failures of a number of large financial service companies,
have increased volatility in the capital markets. Although the
Company has access to uncommitted
non-U.S. credit
facilities (uncommitted facilities), in light of the
state of the financial services industry and the Companys
current financial condition, the Company does not believe it is
prudent to assume the same level of funding will be available
under these uncommitted facilities prospectively as has been
available historically.
Long-term
Customer Financing Commitments
Outstanding Commitments:
Certain purchasers of
the Companys infrastructure equipment may request that the
Company provide long-term financing (defined as financing with
terms greater than one year) in connection with the sale of
equipment. These requests may include all or a portion of the
purchase price of the equipment. However, the Companys
obligation to provide long-term financing is often conditioned
on the issuance of a letter of credit in favor of the Company by
a reputable bank to support the purchasers credit or a
pre-existing commitment from a reputable bank to purchase the
long-term receivables from the Company. The Company had
outstanding commitments to provide long-term financing to third
parties totaling $463 million and $370 million at
October 3, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively.
Of these amounts, $14 million and $266 million were
supported by letters of credit or by bank commitments to
purchase long-term receivables at October 3, 2009 and
December 31, 2008, respectively. In response to the recent
tightening in the credit markets, certain customers of the
Company have requested financing in connection with equipment
purchases, and these types of requests have increased in volume
and scope.
Guarantees of Third-Party Debt:
In addition to
providing direct financing to certain equipment customers, the
Company also assists customers in obtaining financing directly
from banks and other sources to fund equipment purchases. The
Company had committed to provide financial guarantees relating
to customer financing totaling $29 million and
$43 million at October 3, 2009 and December 31,
2008, respectively (including $25 million and
$23 million at October 3, 2009 and December 31,
2008, respectively, relating to the sale of short-term
receivables). Customer financing guarantees outstanding were
$3 million and $6 million at October 3, 2009 and
December 31, 2008,
40
MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND
ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
respectively (including $1 million and $4 million at
October 3, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively,
relating to the sale of short-term receivables).
Outstanding Long-Term Receivables:
The Company
had net long-term receivables of $97 million, (net of
allowances for losses of $2 million) at October 3,
2009, compared to net long-term receivables of $162 million
(net of allowances for losses of $7 million) at
December 31, 2008. These long-term receivables are
generally interest bearing, with interest rates ranging from 4%
to 10%.
Sales
of Receivables
From time to time, the Company sells accounts receivable and
long-term receivables in transactions that qualify as
true-sales. Certain of these accounts receivable and
long-term receivables are sold to third parties on a one-time,
non-recourse basis, while others are sold to third parties under
committed facilities that involve contractual commitments from
these parties to purchase qualifying receivables up to an
outstanding monetary limit. Committed facilities may be
revolving in nature and, typically, must be renewed annually.
The Company may or may not retain the obligation to service the
sold accounts receivable and long-term receivables.
At October 3, 2009, the Company had $200 million of
committed revolving facilities for the sale of accounts
receivable, of which $66 million was utilized. At
December 31, 2008, the Company had $532 million of
committed revolving facilities for the sale of accounts
receivable, of which $497 million was utilized.
In addition, as of December 31, 2008, the Company had
$435 million of committed facilities associated with the
sale of long-term financing receivables primarily for a single
customer, of which $262 million was utilized. At
October 3, 2009, the Company had no significant committed
facilities for the sale of long-term receivables.
Total sales of accounts receivable and long-term receivables
were $383 million during the third quarter of 2009,
compared to $875 million during the third quarter of 2008.
Total sales of receivables were $1.0 billion during the
first nine months of 2009, compared to $2.5 billion during
the first nine months of 2008. At October 3, 2009, the
Company retained servicing obligations for $182 million of
sold accounts receivables and $355 million of long-term
receivables compared to $621 of accounts receivables and
$400 million of long-term receivables at December, 31, 2008.
Under certain arrangements, the value of accounts receivable
sold is covered by credit insurance purchased from third-party
insurance companies, less deductibles or self-insurance
requirements under the insurance policies. The Companys
total credit exposure, less insurance coverage, to outstanding
accounts receivables that have been sold was $25 million
and $23 million at October 3, 2009 and
December 31, 2008, respectively.
Other
Contingencies
Potential Contractual Damage Claims in Excess of Underlying
Contract Value:
In certain circumstances, our
businesses may enter into contracts with customers pursuant to
which the damages that could be claimed by the other party for
failed performance might exceed the revenue the Company receives
from the contract. Contracts with these types of uncapped damage
provisions are fairly rare, but individual contracts could still
represent meaningful risk. There is a possibility that a damage
claim by a counterparty to one of these contracts could result
in expenses to the Company that are far in excess of the revenue
received from the counterparty in connection with the contract.
Indemnification Provisions:
In addition, the
Company may provide indemnifications for losses that result from
the breach of general warranties contained in certain
commercial, intellectual property and divestiture agreements.
Historically, the Company has not made significant payments
under these agreements, nor have there been significant claims
asserted against the Company. However, there is an increasing
risk in relation to intellectual property indemnities given the
current legal climate. In indemnification cases, payment by the
Company is conditioned on the other party making a claim
pursuant to the procedures specified in the particular contract,
which procedures typically allow the Company to challenge the
other partys claims. Further, the Companys
obligations under these agreements for indemnification based on
breach of representations and warranties are generally limited
in terms of duration, typically not more than 24 months,
and for amounts not in excess of the contract value, and in some
instances the Company may have recourse against third parties
for certain payments made by the Company.
Legal Matters:
The Company is a defendant in
various lawsuits, claims and actions, which arise in the normal
course of business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate
disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse
effect on the Companys consolidated financial position,
liquidity or results of operations.

For the third quarter of 2009, the segments net sales
represented 31% of the Companys consolidated net sales,
compared to 42% in the third quarter of 2008. For the first nine
months of 2009, the segments net sales represented 33% of
the Companys consolidated net sales, compared to 42% in
the first nine months of 2008.
Three
months ended October 3, 2009 compared to three months ended
September 27, 2008
In the third quarter of 2009, the segments net sales were
$1.7 billion, a decrease of 46% compared to net sales of
$3.1 billion in the third quarter of 2008. The 46% decrease
in net sales was primarily driven by a 46% decrease in unit
shipments, partially offset by a 2% increase in average selling
price (ASP). The segments net sales were
negatively impacted by the segments reduced product
offerings in large market segments, particularly 3G products,
including smartphones, and the segments decision to
deemphasize very low-tier products. In addition, the
segments net sales were impacted by the global economic
downturn, which resulted in lower end-user demand compared to
the year-ago quarter. On a product technology basis, net sales
decreased substantially for GSM, CDMA and 3G technologies,
partially offset by an increase in net sales for iDEN
technologies. On a geographic basis, net sales decreased
substantially in all regions.
The segment incurred an operating loss of $183 million in
the third quarter of 2009, compared to an operating loss of
$840 million in the third quarter of 2008. The decrease in
the operating loss was primarily due to an increase in gross
margin driven by: (i) lower excess inventory and other
related charges in 2009 than in 2008, when the charges included
a $370 million charge due to a decision to consolidate
software and silicon platforms, and (ii) the absence in
2009 of a comparable $150 million charge in 2008 related to
settlement of the Freescale Semiconductor purchase commitment,
partially offset by the 46% decrease in net sales. Also
contributing to the decrease in the operating loss were
decreases in: (i) selling, general and administrative
(SG&A) expenses, primarily due to lower
marketing expenses and savings from cost-reduction initiatives,
(ii) research and development (R&D)
expenditures, reflecting savings from cost-reduction
initiatives, and (iii) reorganization of business charges.
As a percentage of net sales in the third quarter of 2009 as
compared to the third quarter of 2008, gross margin and R&D
expenditures increased and SG&A expenses decreased.
The segments industry typically experiences short life
cycles for new products. Therefore, it is vital to the
segments success that new, compelling products are
continually introduced. Accordingly, a strong commitment to
R&D is required and, even amidst challenging global
economic conditions, the segment will continue to make the
appropriate investments to develop a differentiated product
portfolio and fuel long-term growth.
Unit shipments in the third quarter of 2009 were
13.6 million units, a 46% decrease compared to shipments of
25.4 million units in the third quarter of 2008 and an 8%
decrease sequentially compared to shipments of 14.8 million
units in the second quarter of 2009. The segment estimates its
worldwide market share to be approximately 4.7% in the third
quarter of 2009, a decrease of approximately 4 percentage
points versus the third quarter of 2008 and a decrease of
approximately 1 percentage point versus the second quarter of
2009.
In the third quarter of 2009, ASP increased approximately 2%
compared to the third quarter of 2008 and was approximately flat
compared to the second quarter of 2009. ASP is impacted by
numerous factors, including product mix, market conditions and
competitive product offerings, and ASP trends often vary over
time.
Nine
months ended October 3, 2009 compared to nine months ended
September 27, 2008
In the first nine months of 2009, the segments net sales
were $5.3 billion, a decrease of 45% compared to net sales
of $9.7 billion in the first nine months of 2008. The 45%
decrease in net sales was primarily driven by a 47% decrease in
unit shipments, partially offset by a 3% increase in ASP. The
segments net sales were negatively impacted by the
segments reduced product offerings in large market
segments, particularly 3G products, including smartphones, and
the segments decision to deemphasize very low-tier
products. In addition, the segments net sales were
impacted by the
42

global economic downturn, which resulted in lower end-user
demand than in the first nine months of 2008. On a product
technology basis, net sales decreased substantially for GSM,
CDMA and 3G technologies, partially offset by an increase in net
sales for iDEN technology. On a geographic basis, net sales
decreased substantially in all regions.
The segment incurred an operating loss of $945 million in
the first nine months of 2009, compared to an operating loss of
$1.6 billion in the first nine months of 2008. The decrease
in the operating loss was primarily due to decreases in:
(i) SG&A expenses, primarily due to lower marketing
expenses and savings from cost-reduction initiatives, and
(ii) R&D expenditures, reflecting savings from
cost-reduction initiatives. These factors were largely offset by
the decrease in gross margin, driven by the 45% decrease in net
sales, partially offset by: (i) lower excess inventory and
other related charges in 2009 than in 2008, when the charges
included a $370 million charge due to a decision to
consolidate software and silicon platforms, and (ii) the
absence in 2009 of a comparable $150 million charge in 2008
related to settlement of the Freescale Semiconductor purchase
commitment. As a percentage of net sales in the first nine
months of 2009 as compared to the first nine months of 2008,

For the third quarter of 2009, the segments net sales
represented 37% of the Companys consolidated net sales,
compared to 32% for the third quarter of 2008. For the first
nine months of 2009, the segments net sales represented
37% of the Companys consolidated net sales, compared to
33% in the first nine months of 2008.
Three
months ended October 3, 2009 compared to three months ended
September 27, 2008
In the third quarter of 2009, the segments net sales
decreased 15% to $2.0 billion, compared to
$2.4 billion in the third quarter of 2008. The 15% decrease
in net sales reflects a 24% decrease in net sales in the home
business and a 7% decrease in net sales in the networks
business. The 24% decrease in net sales in the home business was
primarily driven by a 24% decrease in net sales of digital
entertainment devices, reflecting: (i) a 20% decrease in
shipments of digital entertainment devices to 3.3 million
units, and (ii) a lower ASP due to a product mix shift. The
7% decrease in net sales in the networks business was primarily
driven by lower net sales of GSM and CDMA infrastructure
equipment, partially offset by higher net sales of WiMAX
products.
On a geographic basis, the 15% decrease in net sales was driven
by lower net sales in all regions. The decrease in net sales in
North America was primarily due to: (i) lower net sales in
the home business, and (ii) lower net sales of CDMA
infrastructure equipment, partially offset by higher net sales
of WiMAX products. The decrease in net sales in Asia was
primarily driven by lower net sales of CDMA and GSM
infrastructure equipment. The decrease in net sales in Europe,
Middle East and Africa region (EMEA) was primarily
due to lower net sales of GSM infrastructure equipment,
partially offset by higher net sales of WiMAX products and
higher net sales in the home business. The decrease in net sales
in Latin America was primarily due to: (i) lower net sales
in the home business, and (ii) lower net sales of iDEN
infrastructure equipment, partially offset by higher net sales
of WiMAX products. Net sales in North America accounted for
approximately 48% of the segments total net sales in the
third quarters of both 2008 and 2009.
The segment had operating earnings of $199 million in the
third quarter of 2009, compared to operating earnings of
$263 million in the third quarter of 2008. The decrease in
operating earnings was primarily due to: (i) a decrease in
gross margin, driven by the 15% decrease in net sales, partially
offset by a favorable product mix, and (ii) a slight
increase in SG&A expenses, primarily due to higher facility
exit costs. These factors were partially offset by a decrease in
R&D expenditures, reflecting savings from cost-reduction
initiatives. As a percentage of net sales in the third quarter
of 2009 as compared the third quarter of 2008, gross margin,
SG&A expenses and R&D expenditures increased.
Nine
months ended October 3, 2009 compared to nine months ended
September 27, 2008
In the first nine months of 2009, the segments net sales
decreased 20% to $6.0 billion, compared to
$7.5 billion in the first nine months of 2008. The 20%
decrease in net sales reflects a 21% decrease in net sales in
the home business and a 19% decrease in net sales in the
networks business. The 21% decrease in net sales in the home
business was primarily driven by a 22% decrease in net sales of
digital entertainment devices, reflecting: (i) a 15%
decrease in shipments of digital entertainment devices to
11.3 million units, primarily due to lower shipments to
large cable and telecommunications operators in North America as
a result of macroeconomic conditions, and (ii) a lower ASP
due to an
43

ANALYSIS

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
unfavorable product mix shift. The 19% decrease in net sales in
the networks business was primarily driven by lower net sales of
GSM, UMTS, iDEN and CDMA infrastructure equipment, partially
offset by higher net sales of WiMAX products.
On a geographic basis, the 20% decrease in net sales was driven
by lower net sales in all regions. The decrease in net sales in
North America was primarily due to: (i) lower net sales in
the home business, and (ii) lower net sales of CDMA
infrastructure equipment, partially offset by higher net sales
of WiMAX products. The decrease in net sales in EMEA was
primarily due to lower net sales of GSM infrastructure
equipment, partially offset by higher net sales of WiMAX
products and higher net sales in the home business. The decrease
in net sales in Asia was primarily driven by lower net sales of
GSM and UMTS infrastructure equipment, partially offset by
higher net sales of CDMA infrastructure equipment and higher net
sales in the home business. The decrease in net sales in Latin
America was primarily due to: (i) lower net sales in the
home business, and (ii) lower net sales of iDEN
infrastructure equipment, partially offset by higher net sales
of WiMAX products. Net sales in North America accounted for
approximately 50% of the segments total net sales in the
first nine months of both 2009 and 2008.
The segment had operating earnings of $467 million in the
first nine months of 2009, compared to operating earnings of
$661 million in the first nine months of 2008. The decrease
in operating earnings was primarily due to a decrease in gross
margin, driven by the 20% decrease in net sales, partially
offset by a favorable product mix. Also contributing to the
decrease in operating earnings were $39 million of charges
related to a facility impairment. These factors were partially
offset by decreases in both R&D expenditures and SG&A
expenses, reflecting savings from cost-reduction initiatives. As
a percentage of net sales in the first nine months of 2009 as
compared to the first nine months of 2008, gross margin,
SG&A expenses and R&D expenditures increased.

For the third quarter of 2009, the segments net sales
represented 32% of the Companys consolidated net sales,
compared to 27% for the third quarter of 2008. For the first
nine months of 2009, the segments net sales represented
31% of the Companys consolidated net sales, compared to
26% in the first nine months of 2008.
Three
months ended October 3, 2009 compared to three months ended
September 27, 2008
In the third quarter of 2009, the segments net sales
decreased 13% to $1.8 billion, compared to
$2.0 billion in the third quarter of 2008. The 13% decrease
in net sales reflects a 17% decline in net sales to the
commercial enterprise market and an 11% decline in net sales to
the government and public safety market. The decrease in net
sales to the commercial enterprise market was primarily driven
by lower net sales in North America and EMEA. The decrease in
net sales to the government and public safety market was
primarily driven by decreased net sales in EMEA, North America
and Latin America. Net sales in North America continued to
comprise a significant portion of the segments business,
accounting for approximately 59% of the segments net sales
in the third quarter of 2009, compared to approximately 56% in
the third quarter of 2008.
The segment had operating earnings of $306 million in the
third quarter of 2009, compared to operating earnings of
$403 million in the third quarter of 2008. The decrease in
operating earnings was primarily due to a decrease in gross
margin, driven by the 13% decrease in net sales and an
unfavorable product mix. These factors were partially offset by
decreased SG&A expenses and R&D expenditures,
primarily related to savings from cost-reduction initiatives. As
a percentage of net sales in the third quarter of 2009 as
compared to the third quarter of 2008, gross margin decreased
and R&D expenditures and SG&A expenses increased.
Nine
months ended October 3, 2009 compared to nine months ended
September 27, 2008
In the first nine months of 2009, the segments net sales
decreased 14% to $5.1 billion, compared to
$5.9 billion in the first nine months of 2008. The 14%
decrease in net sales reflects a 24% decline in net sales to the
commercial enterprise market and a 10% decline in net sales to
the government and public safety market. The decrease in net
sales to the commercial enterprise market was primarily driven
by lower net sales in North America and EMEA. The decrease in
net sales to the government and public safety market was
primarily driven by decreased net sales in EMEA, North America
and Latin America, partially offset by increased net sales in
Asia. Net sales in North America continued to

comprise a significant portion of the segments business,
accounting for approximately 58% of the segments net sales
in the first nine months of 2009, compared to approximately 56%
in the first nine months of 2008.
The segment had operating earnings of $689 million in the
first nine months of 2009, compared to operating earnings of
$1.0 billion in the first nine months of 2008. The decrease
in operating earnings was primarily due to a decrease in gross
margin, driven by the 14% decrease in net sales and an
unfavorable product mix. Also contributing to the decrease in
operating earnings was an increase in reorganization of business
charges, relating primarily to higher employee severance costs.
These factors were partially offset by decreased SG&A
expenses and R&D expenditures, primarily related to savings
from cost-reduction initiatives. As a percentage of net sales in
the first nine months of 2009 as compared to the first nine
months of 2008, gross margin decreased and R&D expenditures
and SG&A expenses increased.
Significant
Accounting Policies
Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations discusses the Companys condensed
consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in
accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting
principles. The preparation of these financial statements
requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of
revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical
experience, current economic and industry conditions and on
various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under
the circumstances. This forms 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 or conditions.
Management believes the following significant accounting
policies require significant judgment and estimates:
Revenue recognition
Inventory valuation
Income taxes
Valuation of the Sigma Fund and investment portfolios
Restructuring activities
Retirement-related benefits
Valuation and recoverability of goodwill and
long-lived assets
Valuation
and recoverability of goodwill and long-lived
assets
Goodwill:
The Companys goodwill
impairment test, performed annually during the fourth quarter,
is done at the reporting unit level. A reporting unit is an
operating segment or one level below an operating segment. In
2008, for the Enterprise Mobility Solutions segment, the Company
identified two reporting units, the Government and Public Safety
reporting unit and the Enterprise Mobility reporting unit.
During the fourth quarter of 2008, the Company recognized a
goodwill impairment charge of $1.6 billion at its
Enterprise Mobility reporting unit. The decline in the fair
value of the reporting unit, as measured in the fourth quarter
of 2008, resulted from lower forecasted future cash flows for
the reporting unit and an approximate 1% increase in the
discount rate applied in the fourth quarter of 2008, as compared
to forecasted future cash flows and the discount rate applied as
of the fourth quarter of 2007. The lower cash flows, projected
as of December 31, 2008, resulted from lower revenues and
operating margins for future periods, due to lower forecasted
capital spending by its customers during 2009, compounded by the
estimated growth from the lower revenue base in future periods.
The discount rate applied during the fourth quarter of 2008, as
compared to the rate applied during the fourth quarter of 2007,
increased as a result of higher observed risk premiums in the
market.
While we have currently experienced somewhat stabilizing
economic conditions in the commercial enterprise market, a
protracted global economic downturn could result in a further
deterioration in the forecasted operating results and future
forecasted cash flows of the Enterprise Mobility reporting unit,
resulting in the potential for additional impairments to
goodwill in future periods.
Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
In October 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
(FASB) issued new accounting standards related to
the recognition of revenue for multiple deliverable
arrangements. Under the new guidance, revenue will be allocated
to the different elements in an arrangement based on relative
sales price. The new guidance will be effective prospectively
for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in
fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. In
October

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND
ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
2009, the FASB issued new accounting standards which alter the
scope of revenue recognition guidance for software deliverables
to exclude items sold that include hardware with software that
is essential to its functionality. The new guidance will be
effective prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or
materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after
June 15, 2010. Early adoption of both standards is
permitted. The Company is still assessing the potential impact
of adopting this new guidance.
In June 2009, the FASB issued authoritative guidance amending
the accounting for transfers of financial assets. Key provisions
of this amended guidance include (i) the removal of the
concept of qualifying special purpose entities, (ii) the
introduction of the concept of a participating interest, in
circumstances in which a portion of a financial asset has been
transferred, and (iii) the requirement that to qualify for
sale accounting the transferor must evaluate whether it
maintains effective control over transferred financial assets
either directly or indirectly. Additionally, this guidance
requires enhanced disclosures about transfers of financial
assets and a transferors continuing involvement. This new
guidance will be effective for the Company beginning
January 1, 2010. The Company is still assessing the
potential impact of adopting this new guidance.
In June 2009, the FASB issued authoritative guidance to amend
the manner in which entities evaluate whether consolidation is
required for variable interest entities (VIEs). The model for
determining which enterprise has a controlling financial
interest and is the primary beneficiary of a VIE has changed
significantly under the new guidance. Previously, variable
interest holders had to determine whether they had a controlling
financial interest in a VIE based on a quantitative analysis of
the expected gains
and/or
losses of the entity. In contrast, the new guidance requires an
enterprise with a variable interest in a VIE to qualitatively
assess whether it has a controlling financial interest in the
entity and, if so, whether it is the primary beneficiary.
Furthermore, this guidance requires that companies continually
evaluate VIEs for consolidation, rather than assessing VIEs
based only upon the occurrence of triggering events. This
revised guidance also requires enhanced disclosures about how a
companys involvement with a VIE affects its financial
statements and exposure to risks. This new guidance will be
effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2010. The
Company is still assessing the potential impact of adopting this
new guidance.

Quantitative
and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Derivative
Financial Instruments
Foreign
Currency Risk
The Company uses financial instruments to reduce its overall
exposure to the effects of currency fluctuations on cash flows.
The Companys policy prohibits speculation in financial
instruments for profit on the exchange rate price fluctuation,
trading in currencies for which there are no underlying
exposures, or entering into transactions for any currency to
intentionally increase the underlying exposure. Instruments that
are designated as part of a hedging relationship must be
effective at reducing the risk associated with the exposure
being hedged and are designated as part of a hedging
relationship at the inception of the contract. Accordingly,
changes in market values of hedge instruments must be highly
correlated with changes in market values of underlying hedged
items both at the inception of the hedge and over the life of
the hedge contract.
The Companys strategy related to foreign exchange exposure
management is to offset the gains or losses on the financial
instruments against losses or gains on the underlying
operational cash flows or investments based on the operating
business units assessment of risk. The Company enters into
derivative contracts for some of the Companys
non-functional currency receivables and payables, which are
primarily denominated in major currencies that can be traded on
open markets. The Company typically uses forward contracts and
options to hedge these currency exposures. In addition, the
Company enters into derivative contracts for some firm
commitments and some forecasted transactions, which are
designated as part of a hedging relationship if it is determined
that the transaction qualifies for hedge accounting under the
FASBs guidance on derivatives and hedging activities. A
portion of the Companys exposure is from currencies that
are not traded in liquid markets and these are addressed, to the
extent reasonably possible, by managing net asset positions,
product pricing and component sourcing.
At October 3, 2009 and December 31, 2008, the Company
had outstanding foreign exchange contracts totaling
$1.8 billion and $2.2 billion, respectively.
Management believes that these financial instruments should not
subject the Company to undue risk due to foreign exchange
movements because gains and losses on these contracts should
generally offset losses and gains on the underlying assets,
liabilities and transactions, except for the ineffective portion
of the instruments, which are charged to Other within Other
income (expense) in the Companys condensed consolidated
statements of operations.
The following table shows the five largest net notional amounts

Interest
Rate Risk
At October 3, 2009, the Companys short-term debt
consisted primarily of $20 million of short-term variable
rate foreign debt. At October 3, 2009, the Company has
$3.9 billion of long-term debt, including the current
portion of long-term debt, which is primarily priced at
long-term, fixed interest rates.
As part of its domestic liability management program, the
Company historically entered into interest rate swaps
(Hedging Agreements) to synthetically modify the
characteristics of interest rate payments for certain of its
outstanding long-term debt from fixed-rate payments to
short-term variable rate payments. During the fourth quarter of
2008, the Company terminated all of its Hedging Agreements. The
termination of the Hedging Agreements resulted in cash proceeds
of approximately $158 million and a net gain of
approximately $173 million, which was deferred and is being
recognized as a reduction of interest expense over the remaining
term of the associated debt.
Additionally, one of the Companys European subsidiaries
has outstanding interest rate agreements (Interest
Agreements) relating to a Euro-denominated loan. The
interest on the Euro-denominated loan is variable. The Interest
Agreements change the characteristics of interest rate payments
from variable to maximum fixed-rate payments. The Interest
Agreements are not accounted for as a part of a hedging
relationship and, accordingly, the changes in the fair
47
value of the Interest Agreements are included in Other income
(expense) in the Companys condensed consolidated
statements of operations. During the second quarter of 2009, the
Companys European subsidiary terminated a portion of the
Interest Agreements to ensure that the notional amount of the
Interest Agreements matched the amount outstanding under the
Euro-denominated loan. The termination of the Interest
Agreements resulted in an expense of approximately
$2 million. The weighted average fixed rate payments on
these Interest Agreements was 5.36%. The fair value of the
Interest Agreements at October 3, 2009 and
December 31, 2008 were $(4) million and
$(2) million, respectively.
Counterparty
Risk
The use of derivative financial instruments exposes the Company
to counterparty credit risk in the event of nonperformance by
counterparties. However, the Companys risk is limited to
the fair value of the instruments when the derivative is in an
asset position. The Company actively monitors its exposure to
credit risk. At present time, all of the counterparties have
investment grade credit ratings. The Company is not exposed to
material credit risk with any single counterparty. As of
October 3, 2009, the Company was exposed to an aggregate
credit risk of $4 million with all counterparties.
Fair
Value of Financial Instruments
The Companys financial instruments include cash
equivalents, Sigma Fund investments, short-term investments,
accounts receivable, long-term receivables, accounts payable,
accrued liabilities, derivatives and other financing
commitments. The Companys Sigma Fund,
available-for-sale
investment portfolios and derivatives are recorded in the
Companys consolidated balance sheets at fair value. All
other financial instruments, with the exception of long-term
debt, are carried at cost, which is not materially different
than the instruments fair values.
Using quoted market prices and market interest rates, the
Company determined that the fair value of long-term debt at
October 3, 2009 was $3.6 billion, compared to a face
value of $3.9 billion. Since considerable judgment is
required in interpreting market information, the fair value of
the long-term debt is not necessarily indicative of the amount
which could be realized in a current market exchange.

Some of the risk factors that affect the Companys
business and financial results are discussed in
Item 1A: Risk Factors on pages 18 through 30 of
our 2008 Annual Report on
Form 10-K.
We wish to caution the reader that the risk factors discussed in
each of these documents and those described in our other
Securities and Exchange Commission filings, could cause our
actual results to differ materially from those stated in the
forward-looking statements.
(a)
Evaluation of disclosure controls and
procedures.
Under the supervision and with the
participation of our senior management, including our chief
executive officers and chief financial officer, we conducted an
evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of
our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in
Rules 13a-15(e)
and
48
15d-15(e)
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
Exchange Act), as of the end of the period covered
by this quarterly report (the Evaluation Date).
Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officers and chief
financial officer concluded as of the Evaluation Date that our
disclosure controls and procedures were effective such that the
information relating to Motorola, including our consolidated
subsidiaries, required to be disclosed in our Securities and
Exchange Commission (SEC) reports (i) is
recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time
periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and (ii) is
accumulated and communicated to Motorolas management,
including our chief executive officers and chief financial
officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding
required disclosure.
(b)
Changes in internal control over financial
reporting.
There have been no changes in our
internal control over financial reporting that occurred during
the quarter ended October 3, 2009 that have materially
affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our
internal control over financial reporting.
