Service Providers
.
Service providers, including AT&T, Inc., or AT&T, Comcast Corporation, or Comcast, Cox Communications, Orange S.A., and Telefonica, S.A., are seeking to deploy and manage the best Wi-Fi infrastructure inside the home to enable the connectivity of a growing number of Wi-Fi devices, and to offer a richer complement of value-added services such as high-speed Internet, UHD TV, voice over IP, home security, energy management, cloud computing and gaming. To meet the connectivity and bandwidth demands of such wireless infrastructure, service providers have migrated from home gateways with single-band 2.4GHz 802.11n to dual-band 2.4GHz and 5GHz home gateways and mesh nodes, which include support for 802.11ac and the draft Wi-Fi 6 standards. The Wi-Fi 6 standard not only supports faster speeds but also allows more devices to be simultaneously connected within the home, which is a crucial requirement as the average number of connected devices per household will continue to grow rapidly. Furthermore, service providers desire to offer their customers a seamless Wi-Fi connectivity experience outside the home. They have increased investments in the deployment of Wi-Fi hotspots to support sophisticated roaming and authentication with other hotspots and with customers’ home gateways. As a result, service providers use Wi-Fi to offer a higher performance, lower cost alternative to traditional mobile cellular services.
|
•
|
Retail OEMs.
Retail OEMs, including Asus, Belkin International, Inc. and NETGEAR, Inc. are focusing on higher performance Wi-Fi as consumers are increasingly motivated to invest in higher-performance Wi-Fi for their homes. Consumers desire high-performance Wi-Fi throughout the home to connect many devices including laptops,
|
•
|
Enterprise OEMs.
Enterprise OEMs for enterprise networking are seeking to meet the demands of an increasingly mobile workforce that is connecting to the network via multiple devices beyond a desktop or laptop, such as smartphones and tablets. Enterprises are also seeking to optimize the costs of their networking infrastructure by adopting cost-effective wireless architecture. As a result, enterprise OEMs are increasingly adopting higher performance Wi-Fi in their products to achieve higher speeds and improved wireless network capacity. Capacity refers to the amount of data that can be supported in a given frequency or channel. 802.11ac access points can support almost three times the capacity of 802.11n access points, and Wi-Fi 6 provides even more capacity. Higher capacity translates into a lower cost per bit, which is an important metric when tens, hundreds, or even thousands of access points are deployed in a given enterprise environment. We believe that the combination of higher capacity and lower cost per bit translates into greater enterprise demand for high-performance Wi-Fi enterprise access points.
|

|
Fixed Wireless Access (FWA).
Wireless technology performance has improved to a point where it can provide reliable gigabit level transmissions. This allows wireless to be a viable alternative to fixed line technologies, such as fiber and cable, for last mile broadband access since it does not require the easement and implementation costs to physically deploy the connection. While most FWA systems in the past have used cellular or even proprietary technologies, Wi-Fi (due to its advancements starting with 802.11ac) is now comparable in performance to these incumbent technologies. In addition, Wi-Fi based systems, due to their simplicity versus cellular, have lower costs for not only the base station but also the modems at the end-customer. This may provide an augmentation to the base station connectivity for a next generation 5G network build. Our massive MIMO technology in addition to other features, allows FWA systems to extract the most performance and reliability at the lowest possible costs for FWA. We have existing and new relationships with suppliers and service providers to explore FWA systems.
|
•
|
Consumer Electronics OEMs.
A more robust Wi-Fi network inside the home has enabled a proliferation of connected Wi-Fi devices and has driven an increasing need for better delivery of content to those Wi-Fi-enabled devices. As a result, consumer electronics OEMs are seeking to incorporate high-performance Wi-Fi in their products. We believe high-performance Wi-Fi is becoming a differentiator in consumer purchase decisions for high-end products which deliver optimal user experience and, as a result, we believe consumer electronics device OEMs will increasingly enable devices, such as 4K UHD TVs, over-the-top set top boxes, and gaming consoles with higher performance Wi-Fi.
|
•
|
Integrated 2.4GHz and 5GHz Solutions.
Our most recent solutions include both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz capabilities. As a result, our customer partners only need to design in a single chipset, instead of one for each frequency band. This integrated solution not only enables a more streamlined design process, but also maximizes interoperability and performance.
|
•
|
Streamlined Integration and Faster Time to Market.
We have designed host offload technology, which allows the majority of Wi-Fi functions to be executed within our baseband chips. This offload software capability streamlines the integration of our chipsets into customer and reference design partner platforms. In addition, our experienced customer engineering support team engages with our OEM and ODM customers and partners early in their respective design cycles, which we believe accelerates their product development and ultimately optimizes product performance.
|
•
|
Improved Subscriber Experience and Increased Subscriber Retention.
Our Wi-Fi solutions are high-performance solutions, which helps create a positive subscriber experience when using Wi-Fi. Our Wi-Fi solutions also provide enhanced network performance capabilities, which enable service providers to offer their subscribers a broader range of value-added products and services such as wireless phone service, wireless set-top boxes and seamless streaming of ultra-high definition video. By offering such premium products and services, we believe service providers are able to generate more revenue per subscriber and deliver a better subscriber experience, which contributes to improved subscriber retention.
|
•
|
Premium Product Positioning.
Because of our customers’ product benefits, we believe our high-performance Wi-Fi solutions allows them to command a premium with subscribers, or in the case of retail-oriented products, the end consumer. This allows greater profitability and customer satisfaction for our customer partners.
|
•
|
Longer Lifecycle and Reduced Capital Investment.
Subscribers desire the most up-to-date technologies from their service providers. Devices featuring our solutions offer the leading edge of Wi-Fi technology, and therefore have a longer lifecycle and time to obsolescence. Additionally, a high-performing Wi-Fi infrastructure results in lower network expenditures for service providers by offloading cellular data, thereby reducing the burden on the cellular network.
|
•
|
Fewer Service Disruptions and Lower Support Costs.
Because our Wi-Fi solutions support the most advanced IEEE Wi-Fi optional specifications, they provide higher speed, greater range and better reliability than our competitors’ products, which increases the quality of data transmission and improves Wi-Fi connectivity within a given area. We believe the high quality and reliability of our Wi-Fi solutions results in fewer service disruptions, and therefore reduces customer complaints and the need for support calls and on-site service requests.
|
•
|
Automated Network Management.
We have a cloud-based Wi-Fi analytics and monitoring platform which allows us to remotely collect data from our products in the field. The dataset helps us to efficiently support our customers, improve

|
Market Leadership through Support of the Most Advanced Specifications.
We design Wi-Fi solutions that support the most advanced IEEE Wi-Fi optional specifications, which allow us to be a leader in terms of both performance and innovation. For example, we shipped the world’s first 4x4 MIMO solution when our competitors were providing products with support for only 2x2 or 3x3 MIMO. Today, we are the first and only company shipping the full 8x8 MIMO specification of both 802.11ac with our QSR10G Wi-Fi solution, and Wi-Fi 6 with our QSR10GU-AX solution currently sampling, which we believe allows us to offer the highest speed as well as the farthest range. Also, we are the first and only company shipping samples of a 5x5 MIMO solution, which is addressing the Wi-Fi 6 standard. While some of our competitors offer a wider variety of products, many of those products incorporate only basic features for low-performance applications outside our target market segments. In contrast, we focus on segments of the market where advanced features are critical for the targeted application to provide higher performance, such as whole home coverage or video delivery over Wi-Fi.
|
•
|
Proprietary Technology Architectures.
We design proprietary technology architectures that we deliver through our high-performing chipsets. The 802.11 standard does not dictate implementation and a significant portion of the design is vendor discretionary. We were the first to commercially introduce several new technology architectures, including the first 4-stream and only 802.11n 4x4 chipset in 2010, the first 4x4 802.11ac chipset in 2013 ,the first 802.11ac 8x8 chipset in 2015, and first 802.11ax 8x8 chipset in 2017. In 2018, we introduced the concept of adaptive MIMO at 5GHz, which allows dynamically switching between 8x8 MIMO and dual 4x4 MIMO depending on radio conditions. We were also the first to introduce a 5x5 MIMO chipset architecture. We were the first Wi-Fi solution provider to have integrated 12 chains on a single baseband chip die and eight transmit and eight receive chains on a single radio frequency chip, or RFIC, die as part of a 10Gbps Wi-Fi access point solution. Transmit and receive chains refer to circuitry in the RFIC responsible for transmitting and receiving data, respectively. We believe our proprietary architectures are a key part of what enables us to successfully compete against our larger, more established competitors.
|
•
|
Advanced Software and System-Level Algorithms.
We enable our innovative Wi-Fi solutions with advanced proprietary software and system-level algorithms that provide superior functionality. For example, we were the first to commercially introduce a number of features built on the 802.11 standards, such as 4x4 MIMO, 5x5 MIMO, 8x8 MIMO, MU-MIMO, and 4x4 universal beamforming. We have integrated advanced digital signal processing, or DSP, algorithms in each of our baseband chips. The process of detecting and decoding the desired data from a noisy environment requires sophisticated DSP algorithms, which we have developed over the last 10 years. These algorithms include explicit transmit beamforming, MIMO, MU-MIMO, and others. We believe these algorithms are crucial to the performance and stability of products integrating our solutions.
|
•
|
Pure Focus on High-Performance Wi-Fi Solutions and Deep Wireless Engineering Expertise.
Our research and development, engineering, manufacturing, sales, and marketing activities are focused mainly on high-performance Wi-Fi solutions, which we believe gives us an advantage over many of our competitors who do not focus exclusively on Wi-Fi.
|
•
|
Deep Relationships with Our Customers and Reference Design Partners.
We have built collaborative relationships with our customers and reference design partners, many of whom are industry leaders. We believe these relationships provide us with enhanced visibility into their future requirements. We often collaborate with these leaders at the front end of the design cycle and help them architect their next-generation products. We believe we have a strong industry reputation for responsiveness and delivering Wi-Fi solutions that meet or exceed our customers and reference design partners’ technological requirements, as well as their overall business needs.
|
•

We maintain partnerships with several technology industry leaders to ensure the compatibility of our solutions with other components of the end product, and to promote the adoption of our Wi-Fi solutions. We will seek to broaden and strengthen these partnerships to drive design wins and establish incumbency.
|
•
|
Address Other Wi-Fi Market Segments.
We have addressed only a small portion of the retail Wi-Fi and the small and medium business market opportunities, and we have not yet entered the broader enterprise, FWA and consumer electronics markets. We intend to leverage our existing technologies and solutions, as well as broaden our Wi-Fi solutions portfolio, to continue to expand our presence in the retail Wi-Fi market and address the small and medium business, enterprise, consumer electronics, industrial and other markets.
|
•
|
Broaden Solutions Beyond Wi-Fi
.
We believe our existing technologies and wireless engineering expertise, as well as our deep industry relationships, provide us an opportunity to expand beyond the Wi-Fi market through a combination of organic investments and acquisitions.
|
•
|
Access Point and Gateways.
These applications are at the core of wireless home networking and enterprise access. Our initial solutions supported 2-stream applications with 4x4 5GHz 802.11n, and we have continuously innovated to deliver increasing speeds, culminating in our latest 12-stream (8x8 5GHz + 4x4 2.4GHz), 10Gbps, dual-band dual-concurrent Wi-Fi 6 offering. Our solutions have also evolved from primarily supporting real-time video delivery over Wi-Fi to supporting voice, video, and data. We seek to extend our industry-leading position by continuing to develop solutions to support the next-generation of Wi-Fi applications. We believe that the increasing demands on wireless home networks and enterprise applications will help drive the need for high performance access points and gateways in the marketplace, which we believe will also contribute to greater demand for high-performance Wi-Fi solutions with higher average selling prices, or ASPs, given the benefits they provide to our customers.
|
•
|
Clients.
We provide Wi-Fi solutions for non-mobile client applications such as video clients (including STBs). We believe the performance advantages of our solutions will better support the latest generation of UHD STBs, which have higher Wi-Fi speed requirements. In addition, increased speed, range, capacity and reliability can be achieved when our client solutions are used in conjunction with our access point and gateway solutions.
|
•
|
Repeaters and Mesh Nodes.
In certain challenging networking environments, repeaters and mesh nodes can be used to provide extended Wi-Fi coverage. Our repeater and distributed access point solutions support advanced functionality, including setup, management, and client connectivity features. We believe repeaters, along with our access point solutions, can play an important role in addressing the growing consumer demand for whole-home coverage.
|
•
|
Transmit Beamforming.
Beamforming is critical to effectively compete in the high-performance Wi-Fi market as it enables gateways and access points to direct their signals toward a client to increase transmission efficiency and improve Wi-Fi speed and range. We were the first to apply Wi-Fi transmit beamforming technology to four antennas, and have continued to optimize it for eight antennas. Beamforming is an integral part of our solutions, and our engineering team includes leading system algorithm experts to address the design and implementation challenges in this field.
|
•
|
Advanced MIMO and MU-MIMO.
MIMO technology multiplies the capacity of a wireless connection by allowing access points to transmit and receive multiple streams of data at the same time. MU-MIMO technology permits not only multiple streams to a single device, but also enables multiple client devices to receive multiple streams of data at the same time. When combined, these two features allow the most efficient use of a given channel by offering the highest bits per hertz. A 4x4 MIMO transmission uses four antennas, and an 8x8 MIMO transmission uses eight antennas. We refer to these technologies as higher-order MIMO. Four antennas are used in the 2.4GHz band, and four or eight antennas are used in the 5GHz band. We were the first to commercially introduce MIMO and MU-MIMO for 4x4 802.11n, 4x4 802.11ac, 8x8 802.11ac, and 8x8 Wi-Fi 6. We have experienced wireless system architects and software engineers to lead the implementation of these technologies.

|
SuperDFS Dynamic Smart Channel Selection.
SuperDFS is a set of system-level algorithms that combine RFIC, baseband, and software functions to select a particular DFS channel that has the least interference and best system capacity. Our detection mechanisms have been optimized to pass strict FCC product certification guidelines without being overly reactive in DFS frequencies.
|
•
|
IQStream Advanced Traffic Management.
IQstream is a proprietary system-level algorithm that classifies and prioritizes all types of Wi-Fi traffic in order for the most critical traffic to be delivered with the least interruption. For example, IQStream allows the prioritization of real-time HD video or voice call transmissions over lower priority data such as email and Internet webpage access.
|
•
|
Host Offload.
We have implemented host offload technology, which allows the majority of Wi-Fi functions to be executed within our baseband chips. This not only frees up the resources of the host CPU, but also requires less software integration and optimization between our Wi-Fi chips and the host CPU during system design. This significantly decreases our customers’ product development time.
|
•
|
Cloud-based Wi-Fi Monitoring and Analytics Platform.
Our proprietary cloud-based platform comprises a debugging agent embedded within a product, such as an access point, which sends Wi-Fi data to an analytics and monitoring engine in the cloud. This system permits remote, real-time issue identification and resolution. This allows us to deliver enhanced customer support and Wi-Fi performance.
|
•
|
Smart Wi-Fi Management.
Our smart Wi-Fi managed home solution provides a comprehensive solution for total home connectivity. This solution is comprised of a software framework, SONiQ, for the management of multiple access points or repeaters, and a range of repeater hardware reference designs. Together, these two elements manage and optimize home Wi-Fi networks and help provide maximum speed and quality of experience for our customers.
|
•
|
Service Providers Selecting Wi-Fi Technology Directly.
Some service providers, typically those with large subscriber bases, require that a specific Wi-Fi solution be designed into the OEM products they purchase. As a result, although our customers are OEMs and ODMs, we maintain close relationships with these service providers since they award design wins for our Wi-Fi solutions. After a design win is achieved, we continue to work closely with the service providers to assist them and their OEMs and ODMs throughout their product development and early deployment, which can often last six to 18 months.
|
•
|
Service Providers Selecting OEM / ODM Products
. Other service providers, typically those with smaller subscriber bases, do not require that specific Wi-Fi solutions be designed into the OEM or ODM products they purchase. As a result, the OEM or ODM is the key decision maker with respect to awarding design wins and may incorporate the winning design into their products for numerous service providers. We maintain close relationships with our OEM and ODM customers to secure design wins and monitor end-market demand.

The increase in net income for fiscal 2017 was primarily due to the release of $35.3 million of previously established tax valuation allowances. Management believed, based on available objective evidence, that it was more likely than not that the net deferred tax assets will be realized for federal and state purposes except for California. Accordingly, management released its valuation allowance against its federal and state net deferred tax assets as of this date.

Revenue for fiscal 2017 included approximately $2.0 million of accrued customer rebate relating to the reversal of accrued customer rebate liabilities that were extinguished.

In April 2012, we entered into a letter agreement with RUSNANO, pursuant to which we agreed, among other matters, to create a subsidiary to be incorporated in Russia and to fund such subsidiary in an aggregate amount of $20.0 million over three years.
In July 2014, we amended and restated such letter agreement with RUSNANO, pursuant to which we agreed, among other matters, to operate and fund our Russian operations in an aggregate amount of
$13.0 million
over six annual periods beginning on December 31, 2014. The annual funding requirements in period one to period six are
$2.2 million
,
$1.7 million
,
$2.0 million
,
$2.2 million
,
$2.4 million
, and
$2.5 million
, respectively. In the event that we fail to meet our funding obligations for any period, we will be required to pay RUSNANO a penalty fee of 10% on 80% of the difference between the funding obligation and the actual funding for that period, subject to a cure period of one calendar quarter after the applicable period funding deadline As of
December 30, 2018
, we had met the minimum funding requirements.
|
•
|
Fair Value of Common Stock
. We determine the fair values of the shares of common stock underlying our share–based awards based upon the closing stock price on the date of grant. For all periods prior to the IPO, the fair value of common stock was determined on a periodic basis by our board of directors, with the assistance of an independent third-party valuation firm.
|
•
|
Risk-Free Interest Rate.
We base the risk-free interest rate used in the Black-Scholes valuation model on the implied yield available on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with a term equivalent to that of the expected term of the options for each option group.
|
•
|
Expected Term.
The expected term represents the period that our stock-based awards are expected to be outstanding. Because of the limitations on the sale or transfer of our common stock as a privately held company prior to our IPO, we do not believe its historical exercise pattern is indicative of the pattern it will experience as a publicly traded company. We have consequently used the Staff Accounting Bulletin 110, or SAB 110, simplified method to calculate the expected term, which is the average of the contractual term and vesting period. We plan to continue to use the SAB 110 simplified method until we have sufficient trading history as a publicly traded company.
|
•
|
Volatility.
We determine the price volatility based on the historical volatilities of industry peers as we have insufficient trading history for our common stock price. Industry peers consist of several public companies in the semiconductor industry with comparable characteristics, including revenue growth, operating model and working capital requirements. We intend to continue to consistently apply this process using the same or a similar peer group of public companies until a sufficient amount of historical information regarding the volatility of our own common stock price becomes available, or unless circumstances change such that the identified peer companies are no longer similar, in which case other suitable peer companies whose common stock prices are publicly available would be utilized in the calculation.
|
•
|
Dividend Yield.
The expected dividend assumption is based on our current expectations about our anticipated dividend policy. To date, we have not declared any dividends, and therefore we have used an expected dividend yield of zero.

Fair Value of Common Stock
. The Company determines the fair values of the shares of common stock underlying its share–based awards based upon the closing stock price on the date of grant. For all periods prior to the IPO, the fair value of common stock was determined on a periodic basis by the Company’s board of directors, with the assistance of an independent third-party valuation firm.
|
•
|
Risk-Free Interest Rate.
The Company bases the risk-free interest rate used in the Black-Scholes valuation model on the implied yield available on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with a term equivalent to that of the expected term of the options for each option group.
|
•
|
Expected Term.
The expected term represents the period that the Company’s stock-based awards are expected to be outstanding. Because of the limitations on the sale or transfer of the Company’s common stock as a privately held company (up to November 2016), the Company does not believe its historical exercise pattern is indicative of the pattern it will experience as a publicly traded company. The Company has consequently used the Staff Accounting Bulletin 110, or SAB 110, simplified method to calculate the expected term, which is the average of the contractual term and vesting period. The Company plans to continue to use the SAB 110 simplified method until it has sufficient trading history as a publicly traded company.
|
•
|
Volatility.
The Company determines the price volatility based on the historical volatilities of industry peers as it has insufficient trading history for its common stock price. Industry peers consist of several public companies in the semiconductor industry with comparable characteristics, including revenue growth, operating model and working capital requirements. The Company intends to continue to consistently apply this process using the same or a similar peer group of public companies until a sufficient amount of historical information regarding the volatility of its own common stock price becomes available, or unless circumstances change such that the identified peer companies are no longer similar, in which case other suitable peer companies whose common stock prices are publicly available would be utilized in the calculation.
|
•
|
Dividend Yield.
The expected dividend assumption is based on the Company’s current expectations about its anticipated dividend policy. To date, the Company has not declared any dividends, and therefore the Company has used an expected dividend yield of zero.
