NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2011
(Unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation
The information as of June 30, 2011 and for the three month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, are unaudited, but include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) which the Company’s management believes to be necessary for the fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year.
The accompanying financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2011, which are included in the annual report on Form 10-K filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, Income Taxes
Income taxes are calculated under Accounting Standard Codification Topic 740 “Accounting for Income Taxes”. Under ASC 740, the liability method is used in accounting for income taxes, which includes the effects of deferred tax assets or liabilities. Deferred tax assets or liabilities are recognized for the expected tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using the enacted tax rates that will be in effect when these differences reverse. The Company provides a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is expected, based on whether such assets are more likely than not to be
utilized.
2. Net Income (Loss) Per Share
Basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the average number of common shares outstanding during the period.
Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares that would be outstanding if all convertible securities were converted into common stock.
The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per share (in thousands, except per share amounts):

The Company has excluded options for the purchase of 4,000 shares of common stock from the calculation of diluted net (loss) per share for the three month period ended June 30, 2011, because such securities were anti-dilutive.
3. Taxes
As part of the process of preparing the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company is required to estimate its income taxes in each of the jurisdictions in which it operates. This process involves estimating the current tax liability under the most recent tax laws and assessing temporary differences resulting from differing treatment of items for tax and accounting purposes. These differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which are included in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet.
Income tax expense (benefit) for the three months ended June 30, 2011, was ($0.3) million, or 33.9% of pre-tax income, compared to $13.5 million, or 40.5% of pre-tax income for the three months ended June 30, 2010. The effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2011 approximates the U.S. Federal statutory rate of 34%. The effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2010 differs from the U.S. Federal statutory rate of 34% primarily due to current state income taxes.
As of June 30, 2011, the Company’s total gross unrecognized tax benefit did not materially change with the balance as of March 31, 2011. The Company has recorded a liability of approximately $4.1 million representing unrecognized tax benefits relating to Federal and State R&D credits. All of this amount would impact the Company’s effective tax rate, if recognized. No interest or penalties are recorded in this balance.
4. Cash and Cash Equivalents

The accounting standard for fair value establishes a framework for measuring fair value and requires disclosures about fair value measurements by establishing a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below:
|
Level I
|
—
|
Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;
|
|
Level II
|
—
|
Inputs other than the quoted prices in active markets that are observable either directly or indirectly; and
|
|
Level III
|
—
|
Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which requires the Company to develop its own assumptions. This hierarchy requires the Company to use observable market data, when available, and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs when determining fair value. On a recurring basis, the Company measures its investments and marketable securities at fair value.
|
As of June 30, 2011and March 31, 2011, the Company had investments in money market funds of $23.8 million and $25.7 million, respectively, in cash equivalents classified as Level I of the fair market hierarchy and no Level II or Level III investments.
5. Commitments
The Company leases its facility under a non-cancelable operating lease that expires in December 2011.
Rental expense for the operating lease amounted to $29,000 and $29,000, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and June 30, 2010.
Future minimum lease commitments by fiscal year for all facility leases are as follows:

6. Subsequent Events
On June 9, 2011, S. Muoio & Co. LLC (“SMC”) filed a Complaint to Determine Validity of Election of Corporate Directors and for Ancillary Injunctive Relief (the “Complaint”) in the Superior Court of the State of California for the County of Santa Clara.
The Complaint challenged the validity of the election of corporate directors conducted by OPTi at its annual meeting of shareholders held May 23, 2011 (“Annual Meeting”) in Palo Alto, CA. SMC specifically sought a determination that its proposed candidate, Robert H. Edelman, was elected by having the most votes of any candidate at the annual meeting, and related relief. The Company believes that Mr. Edelman was not properly nominated and contested the allegations in the Complaint.
On June 10, 2011, the Court set an expedited hearing as required by California Corporations Code Section 709. The hearing was held on July 18, 2011, in the Santa Clara County Superior Court.
On July 28, 2011, the Court ruled in favor of the Company. The Company will report the Court’s formal Statement of Decision when the decision has been finalized in approximately thirty to sixty days.
The Company’s largest shareholder has recently increased its ownership from 28% to 34% of the Company’s outstanding common stock and has attempted to obtain representation on the Board of Directors. See Item 1 Legal Proceedings. Such shareholder has indicated in its public filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission that it may engage in discussions with the Company regarding the timing and characterization of cash distributions to shareholders and the potential orderly liquidation of the Company. The shareholder has also reserved the right to take any and all actions that it deems appropriate to maximize the
value of its investment in the Company.
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Information set forth in this report constitutes and includes forward looking information made within the meaning of Section 27A of the Security Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which involves risks and uncertainties. The Company’s actual results may differ significantly from the results discussed in the forward looking statements as a result of a number of factors, including the Company’s ongoing efforts to enforce its intellectual property rights including its current litigation efforts, the willingness of the parties it believes are infringing its patents to settle its claims against them, the amount of litigation costs the Company must
incur in pursuing its patent infringement claims, the degree to which technology subject to the Company’s intellectual property rights is used by other companies in the personal computer and semiconductor industries and our ability to obtain license revenues from them, changes in intellectual property law in such industries and in general and other matters. Readers are encouraged to refer to “Risk Factors”.
OPTi was founded in 1989 as an independent supplier of semiconductor products to the personal computer market. During fiscal 2003, the Company sold its product fabrication, distribution and sales operations to Opti Technologies, Inc., an unrelated third party. As a result of this transaction all future revenues for the Company are expected to be generated from the licensing of the Company’s intellectual property.
The Company’s current strategy is to pursue licensing opportunities to resolve potential infringement of its proprietary intellectual property in the core logic area. During fiscal year 2011, the Company entered into several settlement and licensing agreements totaling approximately $50.6 million on the core logic technology that the Company had developed.
The Company’s largest shareholder has recently increased its ownership from 28% to 34% of the Company’s outstanding common stock and has attempted to obtain representation on the Board of Directors. See Item 1 Legal Proceedings. Such shareholder has indicated in its public filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission that it may engage in discussions with the Company regarding the timing and characterization of cash distributions to shareholders and the potential orderly liquidation of the Company. The shareholder has also reserved the right to take any and all actions that it deems appropriate to maximize the
value of its investment in the Company.
See Part II. Item 1. “Legal Proceedings” below.
Critical Accounting Policies
General. Our discussions and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires that we make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under
the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
We believe that, of the significant accounting policies used in preparation of our consolidated financial statements (see Note 1 of Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements), the following are critical accounting policies, which may involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity.
Revenue Recognition Revenue from license arrangements is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred and there are no future performance obligations, fees are fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured.
Litigation and Contingencies From time to time, we receive various inquiries or claims in connection with patent and other intellectual property rights. We estimate the probable outcome of these claims and accrue estimates of the amounts that we expect to pay upon resolution of such matters, if needed. Should we not be able to secure the terms we expect, these estimates may change and may result in increased accruals, resulting in decreased profits.

Revenues
The Company had no license revenue for the three-month period ended June 30, 2011 and $35,125,000 for the three-month period ended June 30, 2010. The license revenue for the three-month period ended June 30, 2010 relates to the Company entering into a litigation settlement license agreement with Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. (“AMD”). The Company’s future revenues depend on the success of our strategy of pursuing license claims on our intellectual property position.
General and Administrative
General and administrative expenses for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 were $873,000 as compared to $1,862,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2010. The decrease in general and administrative costs for the three-month period ended June 30, 2011, as compared to the comparable period ended June 30, 2010, was mainly attributable to a decrease in litigation costs and employee costs relating to the executive bonus plan.
Interest and Other Income, Net
Net interest and other income for the three-month period ending June 30, 2011 was $4,000 as compared to $2,000 for the three-months ended June 30, 2010. The increase in net interest and other income in the three-month period ended June 30, 2011 as compared to the comparable period in 2010 was due to higher cash balances.
Income Taxes
As part of the process of preparing the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company is required to estimate its income taxes in each of the jurisdictions in which it operates. This process involves estimating the current tax liability under the most recent tax laws and assessing temporary differences resulting from differing treatment of items for tax and accounting purposes. These differences result in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which are included in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet.
Income tax expense (benefit) for the three months ended June 30, 2011, was ($0.3) million, or 33.9% of pre-tax income, compared to $13.5 million, or 40.5% of pre-tax income for the three months ended June 30, 2010. The effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2011 approximates the U.S. Federal statutory rate of 34%. The effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2010 differs from the U.S. Federal statutory rate of 34% primarily due to current income taxes.
As of June 30, 2011, the Company’s total gross unrecognized tax benefit did not materially change with the balance as of March 31, 2011. The Company has recorded a liability of approximately $4.1 million representing unrecognized tax benefits relating to Federal and State R&D credits. All of this amount would impact the Company’s effective tax rate, if recognized. No interest or penalties are recorded in this balance.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash and cash equivalents decreased to $23.9 million at June 30, 2011 from $25.8 million at March 31, 2011. The decrease in cash and cash equivalents of approximately $1.9 million from March 31, 2011, to June 30, 2011, primarily relates to the net loss for the period and a decrease in accrued employee compensation
and an increase in income taxes receivable offset, in part, by an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses. Working capital as of June 30, 2011, decreased to $25.1 million from $25.5 million at March 31, 2011. The Company had no investing or financing activities for the three month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010.
As of June 30, 2011, the Company’s principal sources of liquidity included cash, cash equivalents of approximately $23.9 million, and net working capital of approximately $25.1 million. The Company believes that the existing sources of liquidity will satisfy the Company’s projected working capital and other cash requirements through at least the next twelve months.
The Company’s current building lease agreement is scheduled to end on December 31, 2011. The total remaining commitment under the lease at June 30, 2011 is approximately $59,000.
Contractual Obligations
There was no material change as of June 30, 2011, to our contractual obligations as compared to those at March 31, 2011 as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2011.

None
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Interest Rate Sensitivity
We maintain our cash and cash equivalents primarily in money market funds. We do not have any derivative financial instruments. As of June 30, 2011, all of our investments mature in less than one month. Accordingly, we do not believe that our investments have significant exposure to interest rate risk.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
(a) We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 as of the end of the Company’s quarter ended June 30, 2011. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer along with our Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective at the reasonable assurance level.
(b) There have been no material changes (including corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies or material weaknesses) in our internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of the evaluation referenced in paragraph (a) above.
We intend to review and evaluate the design and effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures on an ongoing basis and to improve our controls and procedures over time and to correct any deficiencies that we may discover in the future. Our goal is to ensure that our senior management has timely
access to all material financial and non-financial information concerning our business. While we believe the present design of our disclosure controls and procedures is effective to achieve our goal, future events affecting our business may cause us to significantly modify our disclosure controls and procedures.
There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during our last quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Part II. Other Information
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
On July 30, 2010, the Company filed a patent infringement lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas against VIA and Silicon Integrated Systems Corp. (“SIS”) for infringement of two U.S. patents. The two patents at issue in the lawsuit are U.S. Patent No. 5,710,906 and U.S. Patent No. 6,405,291, all entitled “Predictive Snooping of Cache Memory for Master-Initiated Accesses”. The complaint alleges that VIA and SIS infringe the patents by making, selling, and offering for sale CPUs and core logic products based on and incorporating Predictive Snooping technology and inducing and contributing to the infringement of the patents by
others. OPTi has requested a jury trial in this matter. The Company in its case against VIA and SIS is seeking damages or other monetary relief, including pre-judgment interest and awarding of OPTi’s attorney fees.
On June 9, 2011, S. Muoio & Co. LLC (“SMC”) filed a Complaint to Determine Validity of Election of Corporate Directors and for Ancillary Injunctive Relief (the “Complaint”) in the Superior Court of the State of California for the County of Santa Clara.
The Complaint challenged the validity of the election of corporate directors conducted by OPTi at its annual meeting of shareholders held May 23, 2011 (“Annual Meeting”) in Palo Alto, CA. SMC specifically sought a determination that its proposed candidate, Robert H. Edelman, was elected by having the most votes of any candidate at the annual meeting, and related relief. The Company believes that Mr. Edelman was not properly nominated and contested the allegations in the Complaint.
On June 10, 2011, the Court set an expedited hearing as required by California Corporations Code Section 709. The hearing was held on July 18, 2011 in the Santa Clara County Superior Court.
On July 28, 2011, the Court ruled in favor of the Company. The Company will report the Court’s formal Statement of Decision when the decision has been finalized in approximately thirty to sixty days.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
Please see Part I, Item 1A of Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2011, for previously disclosed risk factors.
Potential Reduction of Number of Infringement Claims
While the Company continues to evaluate whether there are additional companies infringing its patents, there is no assurance that there will continue to be a significant number of parties from whom to seek licensing arrangements. As technology in the PC industry evolves, the ability of the Company to pursue infringement claims on its previously developed technology becomes increasingly limited. If the number of infringing parties decreases, the Company’s pursuit of infringement claims (and, correspondingly, licensing revenue) will decline. As noted above, the Company has only one legal action pending.
Uncertainty of Future Distributions to Shareholders
From time to time, the Company has made distributions to its shareholders of funds that it believed unlikely to be required for the pursuit of its legal strategy. On July 6, 2010, the Company announced that its Board of Directors had declared a cash dividend of $0.75 per share on each share of the Company’s common stock. The dividend was paid on August 12, 2010. On October 14, 2010, the Company announced that its Board of Directors had declared a cash dividend of $0.65 per share on each share of the Company’s common stock. The dividend was paid on December 15, 2010. The Company had set the record date for the dividend as of November 24,
2010. Prior to these two recent dividends, the Company’s last cash distribution had occurred in May 2007. The amount and frequency of future distributions to shareholders depends upon a number of factors including the Company’s ability to achieve future revenues from its patent infringement claims, the amount of the Company’s legal, operating and compensation costs, tax treatment of such dividends and changes to the Company’s intellectual property position or strategy. Accordingly, there can be no assurance regarding the amount or frequency of future distributions or whether they may occur at all.
Uncertainty of Control of the Company’s Future
The Company’s largest shareholder has recently increased its ownership from 28% to 34% of the Company’s outstanding common stock and has attempted to obtain representation on the Board of Directors. See Item 1 Legal Proceedings above. Such shareholder has indicated in its public filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission that it may engage in discussions with the Company regarding the timing and characterization of cash distributions to shareholders and the potential orderly liquidation of the Company. The shareholder has also reserved the right to take any and all actions that it deems appropriate to maximize
the value of its investment in the Company.
